tgarimtttiMg** anfrCfrtitgW# .ott.. LONDON, JULT 19. THE Paris papers received yesterday and to-day are much occupied with the state of affairs in Ire- land,-On Friday a dinner was given at a restaurant's in the rue Richelieu, nominally to celebrate the anni- versary of the taking of the Bastile, but in reality to express sympathy with the Irish nation, and raise sub- scriplions in aid of repeal. The meeting was attended by about 150 persons. iVJ. Arago was in the chair, and was supported bv several members^f the Chamber of Deputies. In the course of the evening, M. Ledru Rollin proposed the following toast To Ireland the oppressed, and to France the enemy of oppression. He made a speech on the occasion, which ends in these words-" Let England know that if she attempts to overcome legitima-e rights by violent and coercive mea- sures, France is ready to lend to an expressed people, in thfir decisive struggle, experienced heads, resolute liearts, and sturdy arms.-(Cbeers.) Let her remem- ber that -hesame causes led to the independence of the new world, and that her children, simple citizens, cou- rageous volunteers, won at the sword s point that liberty which they maintain, and which, I trust, they will main- tain. to the world's end." Subscriptions were then opened it was also proposed and adopted that armed volunteer assistance should be offered in case or need to the movement party, and it was finally decided that M. Ledru Roliin should proceed to Dublin with the amount subscribed. We would advise him, however, to visit anv other country but Ireland, to escape the imprisonment which hangs over his head, for he will not at all he a welcome guest in Dubhn. fcuch demonstra- tion on the part of the Frenchmen would only injure the cause, because it is well known that they are made not from love for the Irish but hatred to the English.- We mnv at the same time state that all the Paris papers are decidedly in favour not so much of repeal as redress of grievances. The intelligence from Spain in the Paris papers is all unfavourable to Esparfero. Madrid Was declared in a state of siege on the 11 th, and the cause of this extra- ordinary measure appears to be directed against the approach of one of the insurgent Generals Aspiros, who had occupied Galassagar, El Pardo, and other environs of the capital, and it remains to be seen what resistance the National Guard and the inhabitants will make. Espartero, on the 10th, was at the Val de Penas; van Halen, on the 7th, at Carmona; and on the 13th Zur- bano had quitted Saragossa, at the head of fourteen battalions, but in what direction is not stated. Possibly he may be moving on Madrid, but, unless the Na'ional Guards can keep Aspiros in check, he may arrive too late. The confusion, in fact, was complete,- The con- duct of the Regent is totally inexplicable. Since he left Madrid he has absolutely done nothing. In Paris universal astonishment is expressed at his imbecile con- duct but when he is put down the contest is not over. Such a heterogeneous party as that which now assails the Regent will soon quarrel with one another, and pos- sibly the King of the French may find it necessary to march an army into Spain to preserve the peace, and put an end to English influence he no doubt rejoices at the repeal agitation, for it enables him to do what he likes with Spain, The Madrid Gazette of the 8th instant, which states that the capital was perfectly tranquil at that date, pub- lishes a dispatch from the army of Andalusia, stating that Brigadier Ibarz, commanding the vanguard of the army, on his march to Montilla, fell in with a body of insurgents, consisting of 400 infantry and 40 cavalry, commanded by Col. Arias, and defeated them, making prisoners of the whole of the infantry with their officers, and taking from them four bags of Napoleons. The Gazette also annonnces that General Van Halen re- ceived at his head-quarters at Cordova, on the 3d, a deputation fron the Municipality and National Guards of Carlotta, stating that they bad merely yielded in appearance to the Junta of that piace to prevent blood- shed, but they had given no aid to it, either in men or money. Hn. had also received the first Alcalde of Ecija, who made a similar statement. The Espectador of the 8th announces Ibat a column of insurgents from Seville had made their appearance near Xeres, for the purpose of getting up a pronunciamento, but they were met by a body of the inhabitants of that place and a company of the National Guards of Cadiz, and completely routed. It now appears beyond doubt that, with the exception of Barcelona and a few places along the coast, all these insurrectionary movements have been caused by the troops, or rather the mercenary officers. who had been bribed by the ex-Queen and other enemies of Spain.

To-day is the birth-day of her Royal Highness the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Meclenburgh Strelitz (Princess Augusta of Cambridge) who will complete her 21st year. It is generally supposed that several of the ships lately commissioned, as well as others available, will be assembled in autumn in the Downs, to remain there during the Queen's sojourn at Walmer Castle; and when wind and weather permit, the squadron wilt be'in attendance on her Mejesty during hpr trips to sea. Advantage will also he taken of the occasion to test the merits of the Eurydice, a 26-gun ship, designed by Ad- miral Elliot, of whose performances sanguine expecta- tions are entertained. The display of a squadron in the British Channel will be qnite a novelty, it having been the custom of late to keep the reserve at Lisbon, from whence our fleet in the Mediterranean could be more readily reinforced than from home.—Naval and Military Gazette. r-

'I'LIIA (0 AIL ID is IF A YR., SWANSEA, FUIOAY, JULY 21. -— if* SPAIN has again experienced, during the last month. all the horrors of a civil war. The Constitution of 1837 has been sought to be overthrown, and the Government of the Regent Espartero to be abolished by a rebellion, which, if attended with success, may be productive of the most disastrous consequences to the Peninsula. For nearly three yearn, during which Espartero has been in power, the condition of Spain has been better than it previously was for a very long period. The Government obtained some respect from 'he people by the vigour it displayed in smothering the insurrec- tions that were consequent upon years of trouble, by a better arrangement of Police for facilitating the internal communications of the country, and, on the whole, by the greater seeimty it afiorde(i to the well- disposed subjects of the Crown. This pleasing pros- pect has been suddenly clouded by a movement against the benefactor of Spain, and the only man who seems fitted, by his firmness and moderaiion, to conduct the Government, so as to prevent it from sinking into im- becility on the one hand, or rising despotism on the other. The common opinion is. that the insurrection has been caused by Queen Christino's partisans, assisted by something more than the sympathy of France. The Provincial Deputation and Municipality of Madrid have addressed a manifesto to the nation, denouncing France as exciting this unnecessary and cruel dis- turbance, and accusing her of "sowing her corrupting gold in their classical land of lovalty-takitio- advan- tage of the candour of some of their brethren, and of the insatiable ambition of others, with a view to root up the tree of Liberty Should these revolutionary fuorts succeed, what will be the state of Spain ? The successful party will not be powerful enough to exact obedience from the various parties that will still exist. Hostilities will probably continue for years, and the country will again be the scene of sanguinary and revolutionary excesses. How often hafe revolutions produced men of genius, who, by taking advantage of circumstances, have been enabled to get the start of their countrymen, and raise themselves to empire! History furnishes many instances, two of the most remarkable of which have occurred in modern times. The Government established by these military rulers generally terminate with their death and often leave the country again a prey to anarchy. This revolution, should the present Government be overthrown, mav bring forth another of these characters, who niay startle and surprise the World, whilst he rids Spain of national freedom and independence.

WAS there ever a more extraordinary, Or a more unfair proposition, than that for the appropriation of the Revenues of one of our Welsh Bishopric.), to the endowment of the See of Manchester? There is no principle more strictly adhered to by Englishmen than that of carrying ont, as fairly as the change of time and circumstances will permit, the intentions of the founders of institutions, whether religious or secular. It is a rule that has been long adopted by the Legis- lature. and one that has always guided the judgments of the Courts of Law; and we think there are very few who cannot, upon a moment's reflection, discern the immense public benefit that has in consequence resulted to these kingdoms, from the consideration it has always met with. The only reason that, in the opinion of most men, can be a sufficient inducement to depart from those intentions, is, not that a greater benefit might thereby be conferred upon the com- munity, but that it is either impossible to give effect to them, or, that the attempt to do so is attended with evils which the State cannot countenance. Is this the case in the present instance? Is it an evil to suffer the revenue of our Bishopric to he applied according to the will of its pious fotufl&rs? Undoubtedly not. We believe that a great deal of good, although not so much as might be effected, is conferred upon the dis- trict within the See. We are not higotted enough to suppose, that the Clergymen of ollr Cathedral Establish- ments lend no helping hand to the advancement of the religious and moral condition of their humble brethren. They do contribute, in some degree, to a most desirable object-" the Education of the Poor," although that can only be thoroughly completed by a National system, such as we have, on a former occasion, alluded to. However, as this boon is denied us, let us not be de- prived of the beneficial services of the Clergy. At the present period, the presence of worthy, well-educated men, is more needed than ever. The peasantry of Wales, by their late illegal and infatuated proceedings, must have satisfied most of its of the folly of a Legis- lature that wOuld deprive the country of anything that may tend, in the remotest way, to the re-establishment of order. At this time, therefore, the proposal for the destruction of a Welsh Bishopric is most extraordinary. But we contend, that the withdrawal of these revenues from Wales is most unfair. They were intended for the benefit of those dwelling within the See, and not of those living in a distant part of England. It is almost as unjust as appropriating a rate, levied for the main- tenance of a Church in London, to the building of one ill Canterbury. If a Bishopric of Manchester must be created, let a sufficient revenue be found within the See. Let not a spoliation be made from a See in Wales.

Dr. Thomas Williams, of Guv's Hospital, has just been announced the successful candidate in the competition for the Collegial Triennial Prize of "fifty guineas," offered by the Royal College of Surgeons in London, for the best Essay on the Structure and Functions of the Lungs. It was unanimously adopted by the Council of the College that the request be conveyed to the author, to PllblishlO the world the Essay which had thus successfully contested the honour of their highest prize, and that every facility and assistance be afforded him for the further prosecution and eventual completion of his researches.—At the recent iu- troduction of the Collegial system of Tutorage to the Medical School of Guy's Hospital, Dr. Williams was elected Tutor in the department of Structure and Morbid Anatomy. [Dr. Williams, is tbe second son of the Rev. Williams vicar ot Llangafelach. His medical education was com- menced under Mr. Wm. Terry, surgeon, of this town. In regard to ourselves, to whom Dr. Williams has been per- sonally known from the obscure and inauspicious beginning of his professional career to the period of his present dis- tinguished and honourable position, we cannot withhold the open expression ofotir satisfaction in publicly congratulatin" the parents, the ra-e privilege and happiness of whose old age it is to be allowed to share the gratification of their son, in contemplating unnsnal difficulties overcome, and distinction and honour attained by high talents, well-directed industry, and indomitable enterprise. Eu.J The Lord Bishop of St. David's has been pleased to appoint the Rev. Edmund Mel»jl|P, M.A.. 10 the office of Chancellor of the Diocese of St. David's, void by the resig. nation ot Augustus Pechell, Esq. The new Chancellor took his sent on the bench in the Consistory Court on Thursday se'lHiigbt, and after an eloquent arfdrto the officers of the Court, appointeii the Rev. David Archard Williams his prin- cipal Suirogate, and continued him in his office of Judge of the Episcopal and Consistorial Conn at Carmarthen. The Marquis of Camden, in consideration of the de- pressed state of all descriptions of agi icoltural produce, has, at his Lordship's late audit, reduced his rents ten per cent, 011 his estates in Wales. The Noble Marquis and Mar- chioness, with Earl Brecknock and family, arrived at Ihe Priory, Biecon, on Thursday last, for the purpose of residing there until the autumn. J S. Harford, Esq. Blaise Castle. has lalply had announced to his tenants on his estates in Ca maiihenshire and Cardiganshire, that, in consequence 01 the present dis- tressed state of agriculture, lie will make them an allowance of 20 per cent, off their present rents. P. S. Miles, Esq., Leigh Court, has also had it made known to his tenants on his Cardiganshire estates, that he will act in the like man- ner. On Tuesday last, the Helena, a very fine lfi-gun hrig, pierced to carry 16 32-ponndeis, lately hunched from Pembroke Yard, lett Miltord Haven, for Plyiiiotilli, jury rigged, in tow of the Conjutnce steamer.

Measurement, per old act, 164 ions, 1n.ni. .NEW COAL COMPANY.—We understand that a com panv is now being formed to open coal "orb at Dau-y.derri, about five miles below Cardiff. Cheering news for under- 1 ground workmen, as well as the shareholders in the faff « Valp Railway, < COAL AND CopptR TRADES,—We regret to say, that from the recent great depression in trade, the Collieries, as also the Copper Works, in the vicinity of Swansea, have greatly suffered, and the proprietors of these Works have neces- sarily been compelled to lower wages. This circums ance caused considerable excitement in the minds of the woik- men, and on Saturday afternoon last, several thousands congregated in an open space contiguous to the town. The Rev. Thomas Davies, of Pentre Chapel, hearing of the meeting, immediately proceeded to the spot, and addressed the Iwople in the Welsh lan^iiMge. Amongst other mat'ers he told them, "that at the period their masters were doing well, and trade was good, they were paid good wages; b'1t that now, when things were on Ihe wane, and matters very bad with the proprietors, who ..re actually expending (by keeping their men in employ at even reduced wages)"what they realized in good limns, it would he but fair and just that the men should nor forsake them. Your masters supported you," said the worthy minister, "and stock to you when trade was prosperous, and should yon noi in adverse circumstances, stick to and support your masters in return. Love and support one anoihei1, I conjure you, for this state of things, I trust to God, wit) net last long. Trade may revive, and ail may he well again let us, therefore be patient under present difficulties," The woids were «dec- trical. the worthy minister was received with rep"i'ed cheers, and the multitude returned contented to their homes, and on Monday morning they resumed their woik. It is snch ministers as Mr. Davies whom we want, to coun- teract the machinations of evil-minded and mischievous men, who too frequently take advantage of present difficul- ties tll sow dissension between masrers and their men. ( From « Correspondent. J REBECCA AGAIN.—On Friday night, the above Ladv and her faithful and obedient children, paid a visit to the Porthyrhyd gate, which they destroyed io a very short time. The number of persons employed in the destruction of the Kate, has been represented as consisiinx of several hnn. dreds;" but we are credibly informed, hy a person who viewed the whole operation from the window of a house in the immediate neighbourhood, that the number present did not exceed from fifteen to twenty. There were about half the number on horses, and the others on foot. Thev had their faces blackened, and were dressed in wh te, or rather what at one time had been white, but having seen so much service, they were then nearly the opposite colour. There might have been a greater number in readiness, in case of emergency, but the actual number at Porthyrhyd gate did not exceed twenty persons.—Llanddaro« toll-house was de- stroyed on the same night, together with Minke toll-house. The paity compelled three constables, who had been sent there for the protection of the latter toll-house (the gAte liaviii" bcrn previously destrov^d), to assist them. — Pontv- berem gate was des,r„ved on Satnrdav night. The pillars of this gate were manufactured of cast' ii on.—On the same nighr, Pompren rite, situated near Llallrlilo, on the road leading to Llannadock, was entirelv destroved, and cut up to pieces fit only for firewood. Gnns we, u ar)(, the usoat signals announced their approach, as on al\ occasions On Tuesday last, Kif'vveily toll-honse; was levelled to the ground, the gate having been ,1revj0„s!v removed. Our reporter passed through this gate on Mondav, when the house was complete, but m returning on Wednesday, the only intimation that there was "something to pay," was the toll-collector, standing on the road-side, who stated "that by compulsion" he did business on the voluntary principle, as some paid hini their tolls, and others passed without paying.—Oil Wednesday niaht, about fiflv of n.e. becca's daughters destroyed the [Jidgned bar, which had lately been re-erected, after having been destroyed a short time since. They compelled the foil-collector at Pontar- dnlais gate to go with them nnd assist them, h iving nothin" about him but a coat, which h ■ usually wore in receiving tolls at night. After having dispensed with his services"" they chained him ill a stable attached to a public-house in the neighbourhood, calied the Farmers Arms." The party were all diessed in women's clothes, and weie otherwise disguised. REBECCA IN GLAMOKGANSHIKE.—We have on several occasions recorded the feats of the above now notorious lady in the three Westem counties, viz.—Pembrokeshire, Car- marthenshire, and Cardiganshire, but we believe the follow- ing is the but second instance in which she has "taken possession of the gales of those who hate her" in our own county, though some of the London and many of the English provincia) papers have not hesitated to represent Glamor- gansbire as being in so bad a state as the three counties al. ready named. The feat to which we allude was peformed at the Pnmfoltl gate, near Ihe Three Crosses, Gower, on Friday night last, or rather early on Saturday morning, when a number of persons (some say abont sixty, and others represent them as being many more) who had their faces blackened, and were otherwise disguised, amidst the firing of guns, entirely destroyed the gate, posts, and all the "appur. tenances thereto pertaining," excepting the toll-honse, w hich they had ascertained belonged—not to the Trust, which are characterised as those who hate her," but to Mr. Eaton a farmer, residing near the place. The party also destroyed a chain which was placed across a by-road, and intended as a kind of protection to the gate. A portion of wall along the road-side was pulled down. They sent the toll-collector to the house, and threatened to shoot him if he had the pre. sumption to peep out either throngh the door or window. Mr. Eaton, the owner ot the toll-house approached them but he was soon compelled to retreat having been assailed by a volley of stones, pieces of the gate, &c. It is reported that they had contemplated the destruction of another gate in the neighbourhood, but as dawn was approaching they abandoned then design.—As we were going to press, we learnt that the Rhydypandy gate and toll-house, two miles distant from Mori iston, on the road to Clydach, were en. tirely destroyed last night. Mr. Potter, the Mayor of Haverfordwest, received a letter from Rebecca, on Monday last, saying that she in- tended paying him a vist that. night; but this was no donbt a hoax, as her ladyship did not make her appearancc. RBBECCA AMD HRTT DAUGHTEUS —In consequence of the continued unsettled stale of South Wales, owinZ to the determination ot parties known by the designation of Rebecca and her Daughters" to dest.oy properly, and es- pecially turnpike gates, orders were received at Woolwicii at an early hour on Sunday morning to have in readiness four 6-ponnder netd gnns and two 12-pounder howitzers, which were selected from the netd-traiu depal tmeot. and at 10 o'clock, A.M. they lett Woolwich, with the usual number of men of the Royal Artillery required for their service in the field, under the command of Capt. Taylor, with Lieut. Wode- honse. The guns passed through the Baih Station on Sunday evening. The orders were to proceed to Bristol bv the Great Western Railway, and from Biistol to Carmarthen wilh the legist possible delay. On Monday, a company of the 75th regt. of foot passed through this city, in four of the Great Western Railway carriages, iJS an additional reinforce, ment to the disturbed districts in Wales. —Bath Chronicle. — [Two hundred of the 75th arrived in Swansea la^ night, by the Bristol steamer. How long they are to remain with us we have uot heard. Billets have been taken for three days oDly.] SWANSEA POLICE, Thursday.— Before the Mayor. Ann Owen, a servant to Mr. Joseph, Carr-stieet, was com- mitted to take her trial, on a charge of robbing her master of a quantity of jewellery.—The police ca*eg disposed of during the week were only those of drunkenness; and the business of the Petty Sessions this week has been equally uninteresting. NEATH TOWNHALL, July \±th.—Before F. Fredricks, Howel Gwyo, and G. Lewellyn, Esq*—David Thomas, a boy 16 years ol I, was charged by Thomas Francis, butcher, with entering his shop at Neaih Market, and stealing there, from a quantity of mutton, three knives, and rlhpr articles, hi* property. The case being clearly made out against the prisoner, he was fully committed to take his trial at the next Quarter Sessions. After his committal, he was put in the lock-op, and in about an hour he was heard groaning. On the policeman entering ihe cell he was found lying upon his back on the floor, apparently in a fit. Mr. French, surgeon, was immediately sent for, and speedily arrived. It was 'hen discovered that the prisoner had endeavoured to strangle himself, having lied together his shoe ties and put them twice lonnd hit neck. He was quite senseless, but after being bled and put into a h If-halh, he gradually re- covered, and on Saturday morning he was removed fo Swansea. Great praise is due lo Mr. French, for his atten- tion on this occasion. — Rees Rees, of the parish of Lalli wil- jnxta-Neaih, was charged with assaulting David Thomas, of the same place, butcher.
