FltANCE. In the National Assembly on Saturday, the discussion on the budget of public instruction was continued, and thirteen chapters were voted. The Chamber adjourned at six o'clock. The Yice-Consul of Franco at Ilabot writes, under date the 1st of June, to say that the drought which prevailed in the south of Morocco has completely destroyed the crops, and that a famine was apprehended. On Saturday, the Moniteur promulgated the famous law on the Press, passed in the Assembly on the 16th of July. The law is signed by the President of the Republic, and countersigned by the Minister of Justice. The chief topic of interest at the present moment is the appointment of the Committee of twenty-five, who have the right of convoking the Assembly, in case of urgency, during the prorogation. This important ballot has been deferred until this day. A list circulated on Saturday, in which men of the most opposite opinions figured, and appeared to neutralise each other: thus, General Changarnier and General Lamoriciere, M. Berryer and M. Grevy (the friend ofCavaignac), M, de Mornay and M. Leo do Laborde, Odillon Barrot and M. Nettlement, M. de St. Priest and M. Creton, formed so many couples of the most opposed shades. It will be seen, that men of paramount Parlia- mentary influence, such as Thiers and Montelembert, have been excluded from the list, which passes for combining a majority of votes in its favour.

ROME. Letters from Rome of the 12th inst., inform us of the general feeling of regret felt throughout Rome on account of the sudden death of Sir R. Peel. The Pope has caused a direct contradiction to be published in the Roman Journal of the statement of Lord Palmerston with regard to his having sent for Lord Minto. The Spanish Ambassador from Naples has arrived, and has had an audience of the Pope.

CIRCASSIA. DEFEAT OF THE RUSSIANS.—Important intelligence has arrived from Daghistan, of further losses by the Russians in their war with Shamil Bey. It will appear that Shamil Bey has crossed the frontier at the head of a large force, and carried devastation and pillage among the Tartar villages south of Azderhan. General Dolgorousky, commander of the Russian army, had not time to concentrate his troops, which were for the most part cut up, discouraged, half- starved, and toiling their way through rocks and roads nearly impassable, and rendered more so by the tramping of thousands of men and beasts of burden on a narrow track from which they dared not to deviate. Besides these difficulties, Shamil's active and indefatigable mountaineers harassed them at every step, and a general disorganisation spread itself among the Russian ranks. They reached Eskideverche, some 70 miles over the frontier, during the night of the 5tli of May, and fell upon an ambuscade of the Daghless, commanded by Shamil in person. The moun- taineers being short of ammunition, were soon among them sword in hand, and the Russian host was quickly put to the rout, with the loss of' a general, an aide-de-camp, 70 officers, four guns, and most of the ammunition and baggage.

AMERICA. DEATH OF PRESIDENT TAYLOR. The royal mail steam-ship Niagara, Captain Ryrie, arrived in the Mersey shortly after eleven o'clock on Saturday, with the usual mails from the United States, Canada, &c., upwards of eighty passengers, and a valuable cargo. She left Boston on the 10th, and Halifax on the 12th instant, and has made the entire run, inclusive of the detour to and detention at Halifax, in the remarkably short space of ten days and six hours. Accounts from New York by the Niagara extend, by letter, to the 9th instant, and by electric telegraph, via Hali- fax to the 11th inst., and announce the important fact that President Taylor's political career had been suddenly and for ever closed by the stroke of death. The President had been attacked, shortly after the departure of our last ac- counts by the Pacific, with a fit of cholera, and, although prompt medical assistance was obtained, the gallant old soldier gradually sank, and at length died. Our telegraphic report will show the effect of this sudden calamity upon Congress, the people, and the affairs of State, and, generally, the demise of so gallant a soldier and steadfast an upholder of constitutional doctrines, was deeply regretted. Vice- President Phillimore succeeds to the vacant presidency, as did President Tyler on the death of General Harrison. A new cabinet must now also be formed; and one point of in- terest will be the result of the new state of affairs on the slavery question. A letter had been received from an officer of the Arctic Expedition in search of Sir John Franklin, dated off New- foundland, June 7, stating that they had been retarded by head winds and heavy weather. The officers and men were all in good health. New$ from Cuba had been received to the 4th. The fears entertained that a rupture would be provoked with Spain, in consequence of the detention of American prisoners, were allayed by the fact that the governor of Cuba had declared that all of them would be surrendered to the American au- thorities in due course of time. This assurance appears to have been given prior to the arrival of the steamer Vixen, and it is stated that Commodore M'Keener, of the United States ship Congress, had sent despatches to Washington which gave a most pacific turn to the affair. Within a few days prior to the sailing of the packet, the cholera had re-appeared in several of the western cities, taking much the same course as it did last year. At Cincin- nati there had been 63 fatal cases in one day. Dr. Webster still continued imprisoned as a convict under sentence of death. His wife and daughters had interceded for him personally. Multitudinous petitions for a commuta- tion had been presented to the authorities, and hopes of at least preserving his life were entertained. From California we have by this arrival accounts to the 1st of June. The Alabama steamer had left Chagres with 125 passengers and X- 100,000 in gold dust for New Orleans. Our San Francisco advices are not unimportant. Several collisions of a serious character had occurred between the United States troops and the Indian aborigines of the Sacra- mento Valley. The losses were chiefly on the side of the Indians, who soon after sent a deputation of chiefs to pro- cure a treaty of peace, a result which had been attained in a perfectly satisfactory manner. At Clear Lake a. large body of Indians had been killed by a detachment of the United States troops from the garrisons of Sonora and Benicia. Much difficulty had arisen from the collection of the mining- tax on foreigners of X- 4 per month. The tax was protested against as exorbitant and unjust, and the citizens generally sympathised with the discontpnt of the foreigners. Some violent demonstrations had taken place at Sonora. Other accounts state, that the ship Albion, of London, chartered by her Majesty's Government for procuring timber for the navy, had been seized at Oregon by General Dorr, on the part of the United States government, for smuggling and cutting timber in the possession of the United States. NEW YORK.—In the interval elapsed since the death of President Taylor, the proceedings of Congress have been of a most impressive character, having exclusive reference to the afflicting event which has plunged the nation into mourning. Appropriate remarks have been made in both Houses. The funeral is appointed for Saturday at noon. Mr. Phillimore, by choice of the American people Vice-President, and by the death of the late chief-magistrate, now President; has been sworn into office. The cabinet, as is usual, have tendered their resignations. Various names are mentioned as likely to be called to office, but, of course, all is idle speculation. It generally is conceded that few, if any of the late Presi- dent's cabinet will hold office under the altered state of affairs. Mr. Webster is confidently named for a State- ) Secretaryship.

A great meeting of the friends of tenant-right is to be held at Ballinamore, in the county of Cavan, oil Tuesday next, and at .Letterkenny a similar demonstration was to have taken place on Monday. At a meeting of the Strabane Tenant-Defence Association, the following resolution was unanimously adopted Resolved,—That from the general depression of the tenant- farmers' interest, we consider that it has become absolutely necessary to claim an immediate reduction of rents, for other- wise it will become a matter of serious consideration, whether in equity, the farmer should pay any sum which the land is ncapable of producing with justice to himself, his family, and labourers, and to the general interest^of the country. AT the trial of a man for stealing an ass, which took place at the Sligo assizes on Thursday last, the following dialogue took place Chief Baron (to the prosecutor) How did you know the ass was yours ? Witness Well, I knew him; there was no mistaking his legs (laughter). Chief Baron Had you any marks upon him ? Witness Faix I hadn't, but he had marks upon himself (laughter). He had lumps upon his knees and upon his back, and one on his nose (loud laughter). Clerk of the Crown Had you any other reason for knowing the animal was yours ? Witness Yes, I knew his tcoice (loud laughter). Chief Baron whose voice ? Witness: The woice of my ass, my lord (roars of laughter). The minute he saw me, he threw up his tail and roared (loud laughter). Chief Baron Roared who roared ? Witness My ass, my lord he roared with joy. We were together for the last five years; he knew me well; and I would know his woice twenty miles off (loud laughter, in which the Chief Baron heartily joined). The prisoner was convicted.

CHESTER CITY El LECTION. -Thc- vacancy in the representa- tion of this city has been filled up. Our anticipations that Mr. Stanley would be returned have not been disappointed. Al- though the Tories have used every species of exertion for the return of their candidate, Mr. C. E. Egerton, they have signally failed. Their confidence in the strength of their party was soon shaken. The polling commenced at eight o'clock on Monday morning, and closed at four. The result was a large and overwhelming majority for the Hon. W. O. Stanley, the Liberal-candidate, but the declaration of the result had iiot been made at the time our parcel left. -Daily News, of Tuesday. SHOCKING CRUELTY.—An instance of wanton and almost un- paralleled cruelty-has just been revealed in Manchester, per- paralleled cruelty-has just been revealed in Manchester, per- petrated by an inhuman parent on the body of a child some five or six years of age. The woman is named Butterfiel l, and is the wife of a lodge-keeper on the Lancashire and York- shire Railway. A few days ago, some of her neighbours dis- covered that, as a mode of punishing her child, she had resorted to the unheard of and barbarous practice of cutting out pieces of flesh from the buttock, filling the interstices with salt, and actually covering the wound with plaster. No fewer than four such wounds, some of them of considerable depth, were, upon examination, found upon each hip, and the amount of torture to which the child must have been subjected is in- conceivable. On making the discovery, the neighbours had the case brought betore the magistrates, by whom it was heard on Friday. The inhuman mother, in her defence, said she had found the ordinary modes of punishment ineffectual. The magis- trates hesitated whether to send the mother to the assizes for trial; but at length decided upon inflicting summary punish- ment to the highest extent in their power,—namely, a fine of JE5, or in default of payment, three months' imprisonment. Two CHILDREN SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN POISONED BY THEJPV PARENTS.—On Saturday, at Northampton, two persons, named Wiiliam Pell, a labourer, and Sarah, his wife, were brought up for examination on a charge of having poisoned their two children, aged two and four years, with arsenic. It appears that about a fortnight ago the youngest child died, and was buried on Saturday, the 13th. The other child was taken ill, and although two medical gentlemen attended, it died the follow- ing day. The symptoms having attracted the suspicions of the medical men, the body was examined, and the result was the discovery of a quantity of arsenic in the stomach. The other child was then exhumed by the direction of the coroner, and on examination, the body was found to contain arsenic also. Other circumstances of suspicion against the prisoners afterwards transpired, and they were both apprehended. After the pro- ceedings, which were conducted in private, had terminated, the prisoners were remanded. ACTION AGAINST A WISSLEYAN REFORMER. -At the York Assizes, on Thursday week, an action was brought by Mr. Chad- wick against Mr. Coultas, one of the Wesleyan Reformers," to recover damages for an alleged libel in a pamphlet, relating to a decision passed on the defendant by a court of the Wes- leyan Body. The libel accused Mr. Chadwick of "electioneer- ing trickery," and artful dodging. The defendant pleaded not guilty. Mr. Martin, Q. C., Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, Mr. Matthews, and Mr. Rew, appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Roebuck, Q. C., and Mr. Hugh I-Iill, for the defendant. Mr. Justice Whiteman, in summing up, left it to the jury to say whether the defendant meant, by saying that the plaintiff was, up to hocussing, dodging, and personation," that the plain- tiff practised those things, and if he did, to give such damages as the nature of the case required. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, One Farthing.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—THURSDAY, JULY 18. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER on the part of her Majesty, and the Marquis of NORMAN BY on behalf of the Duchess of Cambridge, presented replies to the addresses of condolence on the death of the late Duke of Cambridge. The report of the committee on Parochial Assessments was laid on tiie table by Lord PORTMAN. 'I he Earl of MALMES- BURY having made a few observations, the report was received. The report of the Inspection of Coal Mines Bill was brought up and received, on the motion of the Earl of CARLISLE. The Elections (Ireland) Bill was read a third time and passed. The County Courts Extension Bill passed through com- mittee. ———.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAY, JULY 18. At the noon sitting the committal of the Mercantile Marine (No. 2) Bill was resumed, and some progress made with the clauses. On resuming at five o'clock, Lord MARCUS HILL announced that lie, had presented to her Majesty the address of condolence upon the death of her royal' uncle, the Duke of Cambridge, and had received a gracious reply from the Queen in answer thereto. Also, that he had presented the address praying for the erection of a monument to the late SirR. Peel, and received her Majesty's assurance that the prayer should be complied with. Mr. F. O CONNOR elicited a burst of merriment from all sides by giving notice, for Thursday, the 1st of August, of a motion for the repeal of the union between England and Ireland. Lord J. RUSSELL brought up a message from the crown referring to the consideration of the faithful Commons the provision of such necessary incomes as might be deemed requisite for the dignity of her Majesty's relations, the Duke of Cambridge and the Princess Mary of Cambridge. The message having been read from the chair, On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL it was ordered to be discussed to-morrow (Friday) prior to the House going, into committee of supply. The debate upon the English and Irish Universities, ad- journed as long since as April 23rd, having been resumed, Mr. ROUNDELL PALMER premised that the legal status of every university was that of a public corporation, while the separate colleges were private corporations for the purpose o education and charity; Sir G. GREY divided the question raised by Mr, Palmer into two branches, the legality and the expediencv of the intended commission, and moved that it should be further adjourned for three months. o Mr. J. STUART complaining that this motion would prevent his taking the sense of the House upon the question of" the le- gality cf the commission. Sir G-.

The House divided,— For going into committee 105 For the amendment. 103-2 The House having gone into committee on the bill some pro- gress was made with the clauses, an amendment proposed by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER for reducing the 10s. fee to the Incorporoted Law Society, on registration, to Is. 6d., being carried, upon a division, by 130 to 78-52. A com- promise, by which the fee was fixed at 5s., was then negatived by 124 votes to 68-56. A motion that the Chairman should leave the chair was then. made by Mr. BUTT, supported by Lord J. RUSSELL, with the direct purpose of practically defeating the measure. Some urgent remonstrances were offered by the advocates of the bill against what they termed an unprecedented and un- dignified method of getting rid of it by a surprise. The motion was, however, taken to a division, and negatived by a majority .of 7-the numbers 99 to 92. The remaining clauses were then passed,

HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRIDAY, JULY 19. The Inspection of Coal Mines Bill, the County Courts' Ex- tension Bill, and the Vestries and Vestry Clerks' Bill were respectively read a third time. reported, and committed. The third reading of the Factories Bill having been moved, The Duke of RICHMOND reiterated his objections to the mea- sure, as constituting a breach of faith between the legislature and the operatives, and moved that it be read a thrid time that day three months. The amendment was briefly discussed, and negatived without a division. The bill was then read a third time. The Earl of HARROWBY moved an additional clause, extend- ing the operation of the act to children. On this amendment I their Inrrlshins rlividod Contents 14 I Non-contents 30—16 I The bill was then passed, and the House adjourned at half. jrast seven o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY, JULY 19. The consideration in committee of the Mercantile Marine (No. 2) Bill was resumed, and many clauses passed. At three o'clock the House adjourned for two hours. At the evening sitting, on the motion for the House going into committee, in order to consider the royal message asking a provisionifor the present Duke of Cambridge and his sister the Princess Mary. Mr. HUME remonstrated against the continuance of the. par- liamentary annuity granted to the Duke of Cumberland, an I still paid to the King of Hanover. He wished this sum to be economised before voting more money to members of the royal family. The House then resolved itself into committee. Lord J. RUSSELL, alluding to the benevolent purpose to which the late Duke of Cambridge had devoted a large portion of his income, observed that the result had been to diminish the patrimony bequeathed to his son, so far as to afford the present duke no more than 41,20,0 per mmnm, exclusive of the income which he earned in the honourable discharge of his professional duties. After referring to the precedents afforded with regard to the children of George the Third, the noble lord proposed, as a fitting medium between the claims of economy and the dignity of the royal family, that E12,000 per annum should be the allowance to the young duke, and £ 3,000 per annum to tLu Princess Mary, Including the dowry of £ 6,003 a-year secured to the Duchess of Cambridge, and the t 3,000 granted to her eldest daughter, the Duchess of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, there- would still accrue to the Exchequer a saving of £ 3,000 on the E27,000 hitherto paid to the deceased duke. The vote of jUi 2,000 per annum to the Duke of Cambridge having been put, Mr. IIUME detailed the particulars of the various grants for- merly voted to princes of the blood-royal, as well as of his ov. a frequent appeals in behalf of retrenchment. He proposed that the amount of the grant should be reduced to £ 8,000 a-year. Mr. DISRAELI gave full weight to ail prudential considera- tions, especially in a period of such unexampled distress as at present prevailed among the great interests of the country. He observed, however, that the proposed sum exhibited a large re- duction from that voted to the late Duke of Gloucester, suffi- cient to accommodate the income to the altered state of the times, and he did not think the vote asked by government to be exorbitant. Mr. BRIGHT, as the sincere friend of the monarchy, recom- mended the House not to peril the popularity of that institu- tion in the people by making them pay too dearly for it. llo deprecated the precedent that would be set for future allow- ances to the children of the Queen, by voting £ 12,000 a year to her cousin. Believing the grant was extravagant, ia itself, would be unpopular with the country, and damaging to the royal .family, he supported Mr. Hume's amendment for re- ducing the amount by one-third. The Marquis of GRANLY supported the motion, as did Sir R. H. I-NGLIS, who argued that by the old bargain fur transferring to the exchequer the hereditary domains of the crown the nation had realised a profit of £7,000 per annum. After some remarks by Cols. RAWDON and C, who were understood to support to motion, The committee divided upon the amendment. Ayes -53 Noes 203—153 Mr. HUME then moved, as a second amendment, that the annuity should be fixed at £ 10,000. After some conversation, another division took place. For the amendment. 55 Against. 177—122 The vote of £ 12,000 was then put and carried, followed by a second vote of £3,00U per annum for the Princess Mary. The House then resumed. On the motion for going into Committee of Supply, Mr. C. ANSTEY called attention to the petition of 138 clcrV.s in the Money Order department of the General Post-office, complaining of some injustice they held suffered in the recent promotion over their heads of a chief clerk of that department. The lion, member moved a resolution calling for enquiry into the circumstances. The motion was seconded by Mr. MOWATT and supported by Mr. J. WILLIAMS, who passed a variety of censures upon the business management of the Money Order office. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER after entering into some explanations, remonstrated against an unnecessary interference of the House with the internal arrangements of the public offices. Some conversation ensued, after which Mr. AXSTEY with- drew his motion, and the subject dropped. The House then went into committee of supply on the civil service estimates. A motion proposed by Mr. COBDEN, to disallow the sum of £ 10,000 demanded for the purchase of certain Danish forts on the Gold Coast of Africa, was discussed at much length. On a division, it was negatived by 138 votes to i2. Midnight being now some time past, only one or two votes of supply were taken, and. the House resumed. The Excise Sugar and Licenses Bill went through committee. On the motion fur the third reading of the Charitable Trust.i Bill, ,Ú1Uch objection was expressed to proceeding with the measure at so late an hour, and a division tool; place oil tho motion for adjourning the House, which was negatived. Finally, however, the third reading was fixed for next. The other business on the paper was disposed of", and the House adjourned at half-past one o'clock,

HOUSE OF LOEDs.—Monday JULY 22. After some business of minor importance had been trans- acted, the County Courts Extension Bill.was read a third tuie and passed with some few amendments.

IIOU3E OF COMMONS,—MONDAY, JULY 22. At the mourning sitting the House went into committee on the remaining clauses of the 'I,.ircaii tile Marine Bill. At the afternoon sitting Lord J. RUSSELL withdrew the Oath of Abjuration (Jews) Bill. The House went into Cj n- j mittee of Supply on the Civil Service Estimates. The Eccle- siastical Commission Bill was read a third time.
