The opposition lord appeared to have re.ined the contest in do pair had lost all spirit, a'ld suffered car! Gfv to act almost as he pleased. The duke
of VVeliing,ton had gone into the country to

ha; been brought before the house of commons. It is the question renewing the char j ter of the bank of England. Connected with this subject, a committee has been appointed who are also directed to inquire into the system of "Banks of I-sue." There is much reason to believe that eventually our system of joint slock banks will be introduced thro'out Great Britain and Ireland. ..A communication had been received at Maderia from Louis Philippe, intimating, "that France will consider as a declaration of war, the first movement which the Spanish troop3 will make for the purpose of entering Portugal."

as you will h ive seen, on the 13th init. at B'-ziers, between the soldier of a dragoon regiment quartered In that town and the. inhabitants, in which the National Guards joined the people, and fired on the Dragoons, killing three sub-otiicers, (among whom was a 3oi of the celebrated Lnvalette,) and several soldiers. This is a very serious affair. It will be the policy, and is, I am sine, the desire of Marshal Soult to punish this outrage. A very extraordinary phenomenon has been observed at Valenciennes, in France, ir the grounds of two bleachers, which are more thau 600 yards from each other.
