LONDON, Nov. 17. ^pHE Paris journals to Saturday's date have been X received. The Moniteur gives a telegraphic despatch, from Toulon, dated November 10, stating that the towns of Latakia, Triooli, Horns, and Tortosa. on the coast of Syria, had all heen evacuated by the Egyptian troops, and the garrisons they contained had been ordered to fail hack upon Zachle, in the neigh- bourhood of Baibec, where Ibrahim >vas endeavouring to concentrate a farce to enable hi;n to protect Da- mascus. The new Prince of the mountains, Knur Bei\;ir Sae;her. was at Ammana on the S'2d >vith cor, siderable forces, at four hours' march from Ibrahim Pasha, and a decisive action was expected. St. Jean d'Acre had 110' been attacked on the 27th nil., and even-thing; remained quiet in Alexandria The Journal des Oehats remarks on the intelligence thus announced. that it is evident that the Allies most, in order to hue arrived at Baibec to attack Ibrahim Pasha, in the valley which separates the Lebanon from the Anti-Lebanon (the ancient Coalo Syria), have pene- trated into the interior of the Province, that all the tribes of the mountains must have joined the Allies. The next accounts are expected with considerable aisxietv." The Semaphore of Marseilles sta es that Commodore Napier, at the head of .5.000 Turks, 4,000 Syrians, commanded by the young Emir Bechir. and 1,500 Marines, in all 10,500 men had marched to give battle to Ibrahim Pasha, in the p'ains, at some distance from s:eyiout, where he was encamped with an army of 15,1.00 Egyptians, forming the elite of his army. It was the prevailing impression that a second defeat would destroy the moral influence of Ibrahim f:ash:i in Svria. There is, we SUSIK ct. some mis-ake in ILi, as Commodore Nap'et had, according to the last advices, resigned the direction of the allied forces to Sir Charles Sim;h.— A letter from Berlin, dated the 4th inst given in tlu ■e pa-vers states that the Royal Bank in that city, which had branch banks at Stettin ar.d Madgeburg, having contracted their issues in ho-e towns in consequence of the reports of war, five of the most eminent commercial houses there had suspended their payments, and several minor houses had become bankrupt The Mluieratar of Tonrnay states, that M. Louis Quevauwillers, banker in that city, and ancient President of the Chamber of Commerce, had been declared a bankrupt on the 27th ult. Lord Palmerston's note of the 2d of November, in answer to M. Thiers' noie of the 8th of October, has excited quite a commotion amony; the French journals. It is to be regretted that it hears date after the appointment of the Soult-Guizot Ministry was known in London because everything is to be regretted which serves the war party as a handle for appeals to the worst passions of the French people. The assumption of the French Opposition i'ress, that the note while nominally ad- dressed to M.Thiers was virtually intendd for a warning to M. Guizot, is wholly untrue. The Madrid Gazette of the 6ih inst. contains a Mani- festo of the Provisional liegency, containing a state- ment of the views and principles which guide them in the public service. It promises fair to the public creditor, and gnes hopes of bringing the intricate financial affairs of Spain to something like a clear state. The ordinary revenues are to no to pay, first, the armv and navv, the presidios, public functionaries, and such pensioners as are entitled to no more than 6000 reals annually. Steps are to be taken to cancel the Five per Cent. Bonds given as guarantees to contractors by the law of last June. Orders on the Havannah Trea- sury not made to persons in the Colony, are to be suspended, so as to obtain a revenue of 50.000 COO reals from Cuba in the next half year, independently of the customs. All impost and taxation is '0 return to the state in which it. was last September; and all revenues, in whatever parts of Spain, are to be paid into the Central Treasury of Madrid. These two last clauses are directed asainst the legislation of the Juntas, which in many places abolished the tithe allowance, and altered the entire svstern of rating and collecting the revenue, besides applying it to local puposes. The Manifesto has created a deep sensation in the public mind, and the well-wishers of the country were pleased at the prospect of soon seeing affairs resume their natural and regular course. The Royal Mail steam-ship, which arrived at Liver- pool on Sunday evening, brings New York papers to the 31st ult. but they contain no news of importance. It appears that the French houses at New York, from an apprehension of war, have in most cases refused to draw bills, which have raised the rate of exohange to 5f, 5 0c. The rate on London was 8-J to 9per cent., and the demand for specie for shipment had increased. The demand on the banks had in consequence reached an extent which caused them to call in their loans upon stock, and produced a decline in the stock-market. It is hard to procure money at seven per cent., though before it was obtainable on stock at five per cent It is said that the hopes of the United States Bank re- suming specie payments in January next are dying awav, since the Commissioners who went to Boston to negotiate a loan in favour of the Philadelphia banks have been unsuccf ssful. At Eoston they are, it seems, unwilling to lend their money without the guarantee ofthesotventbanksof Philadelphia. The prominent topic in the American papers was the Presidential election, and the friends of Von Buren were far from desponding as to his ultimate chance of election. The Commissioners appointed by the United States Go- vernment to survey the disputed Boundary had com- ■ pleted their task, and were on their return. It is stated that they had no doubt in their minds that the line claimed bv the United States is the true line, and that no person who makes the examination with the intention of ascertaining the truth can arrive at any other conclusion." A morning paper (The Herald) of Friday announced that Viscount Palmerston had addressed a communi- cation to M. Guizot, intimating that. should Mchemet Ali now return to his allegiance to the Porte, the allies of the Sultan would ensure to him not only the here- ditary possession of Esrypt, but also the life tenure of the Pachalic of Acre, with the exception of the fortress. There is on the face of this statement so much of im- probability that we hesitate not to deny that any such communication has been made by Viscount Palmerston to M. Guizot, or has emanated, through any other source, from the allies of the Sultan. But there is in th's announcement of cur contemporary an incon- sistency still more great; for what can be more monstrous than the idea of restoring to Egyptian bondage the Pachalic of Acre ? The Sultan and his allies placed arms in the hands of the Syrians, the Syrians have nobly aided their Sovereign against the traitor and the tyrant, and they are now the free and joyous subjects of their legitimate Sovereign. What folly, therefore, must it not be to ta!k of offering back any portion of tlJPs(> loval Syrians to the iron swav of Meh emet Ali.— Observer. The administration of 'he effects of her late Royal Highness Princess Augusta Sophia were granted on Sa- turday List, by the Prerogative Court of Canterbury in Doctor's Commons, to their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Sussex and Cambridge, brothers and next of kin, she having died without a will. The effects "were sworn under 30,000/ and the stamp duty of 600/, paid. It is rather curious that the Royal Family are exempt from legacy duty, but not on will or administration duty. The Hon. Frederick Ponsonby. second son of Vis- count Duncannon, has come forward to contest the repre- setaiion of County Carlow with the Tory candidate, Col. Brnen. The last accounts received from Mulgrave Castle state that the Marquis of Normanby is going on very favourably. The noble Marquis, it isexpected, will be sufficiently recovered to resume his official duties at the Home Office in the course of next week Notwithstanding the contradiction we were enabled to give. observes the Globe, to the statement which ap- peared in the Times of Lord Plunkett's resignation of the Irish Chancellorship, and of consequence to thechanges in the law departments of the government which would ensue, we perceive that the rumour continues to be made bv other journals. We have only to repeat our explicit contradiction and are enabled to add that no communication whatever on the subject has been received in this country; but on the contrary, letters have come to hand, which state that Lord Plunkett is recovering from his recent indisposition, and is expected to preside in the Court in the course of a few days. Dr. Dickenson, the incumbent of St. Ann's, Dublin, and Chaplain to the Archbishop of Dublin, is to be the new Irish Bishop. He owes this important prefer- ment solely to his merits. We believe that he is not only unconnected with any member of the Government I' or their supporters, but even unacquainted with any of them, excepting those whose duties fix them in Dublin. His claims are his talents and virtues. He is one of a class of clergymen uncommon in England, and still more rare in Ireland, who belong to no faction or clique. He has shown his politics only by the support of every liberal measure, and of every useful institu- tion. He was an open and strenuous advocate for the comprehensive system of education introduced by the Education Board at its commencement, when the suc- cess of that great experiment seemed scarcely to be hoped, and when its defenders were the objects of a High Church and Orange persecution, even more ge- neral and more bitter than that by which they are now assailed. In the prominent situation to which he is now elevated, he will be a worthy associate to Arch- bishop Whately and Archbishop Murray in the glo- rious conflict which they are waging for the people of Ireland against the violent and the prejudiced of both persuasions, and of both countries—against the Exeters of England, and the M* Hates and Beresfords of Ire- land.— Morning Chronicle. The Queen has been pleased to appoint the Right Hon. James Alexander Stewart Mackenzie to be Lord High Commissioner in and to the Uunited States of the .1 Ionian Islands. The Queen has been pleased to appoint Lietit.-Geti. Sir Collin Campbell, K. C. B., to be Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Island of Ceylon. The election for the Cambridge High Stewardship commenced on Wednesday, and continued up to its termination on Friday morning in favour of Lord Lyndhurst. The final numbers were—Lord Lvnd- j hurst, 973 Lord Lyttleton, 4S7. John Thorogobd has been released hy the interven- tion of some unknown person, employing for this purpose Mr. G. Sow ray, of 13, Chanel-street, Belgrave- square. In a letter to Thorogood Mr. S. It is right that I should apprize vo fha' Jam only an n^en* in this matter, and nor at !i )er!v to disclose 'he name oi the party who. by means o! p'c.inp; 'he cos's. £ ;c.. 7, of the sui' a gains' you, has been your deliverer on this occasion." A commercial treaty between Great Britain and th" Republic of Texas was signed at the Foreign Office, on MonOay, by Lord Palmerston and Genera! James Hamilton, the Envoy from that Republic. This con- oil recognises the independence of the new Re- public. They are now recogniscd by America, France, Hotiand. Belgium, and Enginnd. Mr. O'Connell (according to the Dublin Register) has given a site for the erection of a convent, at Cahir- civeen, and three acres of land for ever, gratis, besides contributing a donation of 1003/. towards the erection of th" edifice. Thp convent was opened last week by I o the Right Rev. Dr. Egan, with four nuns from the'pre- senfation order from Dingle. Alderman Harmer has resigned his Alderrnanic Gown for the Ward of Faringiion itiiout. in his | address to his constituents, he imputes -ti.9 late defeat for Chief Mag:sn-acv to cant, hypocrisy, ignorance, and slander, and, thong!) his enemies rrnv exu!t, he has no cause for mortification —" I have long (sa:, s the worthy Alderman) since locked forward to the period when I might expect to fill the office of Lord Mayor wi'h more regret than pleasure because, high as the honour unques'ionablv is. it would be more than conn- terhalanced by the deprivation of those quiet domestic comforts which constitute all my happiness; and it w0:11(1 have afforded me great satisfaction to Imve vo- luntarily sought to be relieved from the laborious dn- fte; the ridiculous pageantry, and the senseless osteu- (ation inseparable from the office." A rule for a criminal information was obtained in the Bail Court, on Saturday, against Mr. Alaric Watts, 'lie proprietor of the United Service Gazette, for a series of libels against Lieutenant Hart, of the 49tii Regiment, tendingseriously to injure him in his professional pros- pects. One represented that Lieut. H. had neglected his duty, and spent his time in idleness afhome, whits* better and abler officers were serving their country under scorching sun in India—another that he had heen appointed to recruiting service, whilst officers possessing stronger claims and better qualifications were passed over—and a third that he had been in army only eleven years, six of he bad been ah- sent from dnty—Lient. Hart denied all these alle«a- tions, and the Court, without hesitation, granted a rule R.ITHKR Prn:,L\T¡'RF.{'n Thursday morning at an early hour, the heils at Hackney set up h loud and joyful peal in honour of the birth of a young Prince of Wales. Every hoJy vvas delighted at the happy news, more especially the school children, who readily obtained the privilege of a holiday. The same bells commenced tollin" for the late King two or three days befoie his Vajestv died. It is to be hoped ¡h,lt the church at Hackney is nnder more discreet management that the steeple. THE L\T!. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.—On Friday afternuon all inquest was held at the fieli Inn, in the vilL.ge of Frvston, on the body of Mr. Pattison, one of the nnfOl- tunate individuals killed by the accident on the York and North Midland Railway. After the jurv had been sworn, they proceeded to view the body. which was laid in a winding sheet. It was shockingly mutilated, and presented a sick- enitig appearance; the lower part of the free he ng entirely cut away, and the features utterly destroyed. The evi- dence was then proceeded with; it occupied the whole of Friday, and was continued on Saturday. At its conclusion, the Coroner summed np at great length, observing that rail- ways being now the common mode of travelling, it was in-, cumbent upon the directors to take every precaution for the safety ot the public, and if they did not take such pre- cautions, and death ensued, the jury could mark their sense of such neglect by the amount of their deodand. He then remarked on the recent cases in the Court of Qeen's Bench. stating that the judges were not favourable to-deodands,and therefore whenever any technical point was discovered in the drawing of an inquisition, the objection was generally held fatal. He stated that in his opinion it would be im- possible to bring in a verdict of manslaughter against Wat- kins, the driver, as it was proved he used his utmost en- deavours to stop the train as soon as lie saw the red light. He was dso of opinion that there was no canton neglect proved against the company, and he therefore strongly re- commended ;hem to be moderate in amount with any deo- dand which they might impose The room was then cleared for the jury to consider of their verdict, and after consulting together half an hour, the patties interested were admitted. The Foreman (Wm. Hemsworth, Esq.) said, We find that Henry Pattison was accidentally killed, and we levy a deo- dand of 500L on the Zetland engine, the property of the York and North Midland Railway Company." [The parties piesent connected with the railway expressed themselves strougiy to the effect that the deodand was excessive, and that the matter would probably he removed into the Queen's Bench. Mr. Hudson (the chairman of the coinpauy) said they should be happy to take any precaution the jurv might suggest, when the foreman said they were of opinion that better lights should be placed at the junction J ANOTHER. RAILWAY ACCIDKNT.— An accident took place on Sunday, on the Eastern Counties Railway. It most be premised that the Northern and Eastern Railway Com- pany use a certain portion of the London end of the Eastern Counties Railway as the ternrnus of their own. The acci- dent was caused by a Northern and Eastern engine, unac- companied by any carriages (which had left Shoreditch ten minutes after the Eastern Counties train), coming into collision with that train. A poor woman sustained a frac- ture of the leg, just above the ancle; one gentleman was severely bruised, and two others sustained some slight injuries. THE LABOURING POPULATION'.—A circular letter was on Friday transmitted from the Poor Law Commissioners to the Guardian* of the parishes and unions in the metro- polis, in which the Commissioners desire to recal to the attention of the Guardians the facts which have from time to time been brought under the notice of the Legislature in respect to the sanatory condition of the labouring population in the metropolis, and remind them of the circumstance made apparent in the course of the investigations instituted, that a large proportion of the claims to relief on account of des- titution arise from sickness, attributed chiefly to the defective internal and external economy of the dwellings of the la- bouring classes, and to the want of proper cleanliness in them. From returns made in ]838 by the medical officers of twenty unions and parishes in the metropolis, it appeared that 13,972 cases of claims to relief on the pound of dpsti- tution, were created during that year by attacks of fever alone, and that in 1281 cases the attacks proved fatal. The The general deaths from fever in the metropolis during the same year appear from the summary of the Superintendent Registrar's i-eiiii-n,, to have been 5634. A considerable pro- portion of other cases of sickness and mortality were ascribed to the operation of the like causes, which ttie physicians and medical officers by whom the Commissioners are advised, consider might be prevented by the enforcement of proper sanatory regulations."

Vootocrii)t. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 18. The Paris Journals of Sunday and the whole of the morning and evening papers of Monday have been re- ceived. We have pleasure in quoting from the Presse of Saturday the following announcement:— "We have reason to bplieve that two agents have re- cently departed from the Foreign-office, one for Alexan- (bioi, the other for Constantinople. Th" first has tor mis- sion to engage Mchemet Ali to make his submission the second to obtain fiom the Porte the withdrawal of the de- cree of deposition. In respect to the latter, the British Ministry, it would appear, is disposed to join its lepresen- tations to tho-e ot Ft tfice. It is affirmed that a note diawn up in this sense, and more friendly, consequently, than the reply or L, (I Palmerston to the note of October 8, will lie addressed to our C -.bitset. before/he of the ad- dress* in The Chambers of Depot es.

The entire force under the command of Commodore Napier at no time consisted of more than 1,500 Turkish troops and marines: these by various causes were from time to time reduced to half that number. With this comparative handful of men, be- tween the !0!l) of Se;)t.

D.75. and situate in St. John's. Brecon, con- taining 160 Acres of rich Arable, Meadow, and Pasture Land, which may be said lo lav within a ring-fence; together wilh the Manor of Pool, and exclusive Fishery ever two miles and a half of the rivers Usk and Yskir. The House occupies a situation of extreme beauty under the richlv-wooded Hill of Venni, not far from the Banks of the Usk, and with small addition might be made tit for a gentleman of fortune, and the neighbourhood offers every inducement for the investment of capital. The Shooting over the Manor is inferior to none in the neigh- bourhood, and might be truly said to be a paradise for the lovers of the sport. Few such choice spots are to be found in Wales, where the followers of Isaac Walton might indulge with more success than the rivers Usk and Y-kir iflor(i. The scite of the ancient Banuium is intimately connected with numerous Roman remains, which amply entitle it to the pre- eminence claimed for it bv the County Historian of Brecon one of the earliest stations of the Romans in Britannia Secunda," the ill-fated metropolis of the unfortunate Bleddin ap Maenarch and the parenl of Brecon. These circumstances render it a spot of powerful attraction to the Antiquary.
