Lord Woasur rose and said—I wish to ask the right hon. the Secretary at War whether the report so generally cyrculated, Is to the Hon. Colonel Dundas having used language disrespect- ful to her Majesty, has attracted the notice of the official autho- rities, and whether an inquiry has been made as to the truth oi that report? I shall be happy ifI can ascertain that. such is not the case; but in am informed that it is so,I should like to know whether the official authorities hiivein any way marked their dis leasure. git II. HARDINGE said, in answer to the questions put by the noble lord, I have to state, that Colonel the Hon. Henry Dun- das was requested by the Commander-in-Chief, immediately on the circumstances referred to by the noble lord being known, to furnish sucli explanation as he had to offer. Having given that explanation,.tlte Commander in Chief thought that Colonel Dun- das had failed to absolve himselffrum the grave oflence which had been imputed to him, ot having spoken disresp‘ectful'y “f h“ Majesty; and, under those circumstances, the benet‘al Cum: mltnding in Cliieffelt it to, be his duty to submit to bc_r Littlest; that Colonel Dnndas be dismissed from his ofhceut Queen: Aide-de-camp, ’and further, that Colonel Dundas be remove]:“ from the command ofthe 83d Regiment, and Placed 0" the .hal ' pay‘ list.

Not only France itself, bitt even its royal fartillles, seem to be marked out for the peculiar visitation of these extraordinary calamities. Every interval of'three or four years is distin- guished by some public disaster ofthis kind. Very tar be him; its to say anything which might have thepresumptu- oak air ofinterpreting the secret councils of'Divme. Prow- dence, or of assigning or billetiiig out any ofthese visnattons as the particularjudgments of Heaven. But fully belicvnig, as we do from the bottom our hearts, that the afiiiirs of'in- dividuals and of nations are governed by the special and icular providence of the Supreme Being, and that nothing appens without his direct will, and beyond or short of his View; that no earthly governor or magistrate can superin- tend the narrow concerns of his own kingdom or district with so mueh vigilance and attention as the governor of the world exercises over the whole body of mankind,——we can- not avoid adopting the necessary conclusion, that great events of this kind are not the blind results of the mere course of human affairs; that the arrow had its aim, and that such a death has not been allowed , to happen without its particular object and purpose. When We further add to this consideration the most awful spec- tacle of the cotnparative irreligion and total corruption ofthe vast majority ofthe French people, and that this miserable state of national irreligion, and of the consequent wicked- ness and total deinoralisation of a whole people, have been caused in a great measure by the corruption of their courts, and by the example or guilty negligence ot'their princes through successive generations, beginning with the Regency in the time ofLotiis XIII., and followed ’up by the atrocious profligaoy of the age of Louis XIV., we cannot also reject the conclusion of our own judgment, that there is in truth something in this calamity ofits successive princes which must excite the most serious feelings in every religious mind, and, the character of which We find it easier thus indistinct. ly to suggest than more particularly to express. 0f the three heirs of tho Bourbon fainin during our own time, the Duke Angouleme, the Duke dc Berri, and the late Duke ofOrleans, the first is in exile, the second fell under the hand ofeu assassin, and the third had scarcely reached manhood before he has become the victim ofthe “ his impro- m'salethi,”-of a Sudden and violent death, which has re- moved him, in the midst oflife nd the vigour ofyouth, into the dark chambers of the gi‘uveHO this also we might :idd \the resent condition ofthe Duke ofBordeaux, an exile like the uke Angouleme, and with no human probability that he will ever regain the throne of his ancestors. Surelv here is an amount of misery and wretchediiess in the roytil house to which it would be difficult to find a parallel With- in the‘amials of modern history. It must indeed remind the English reader ofthat total desolation of the house of Stuart, which followed upon the profiigate reign of‘Cliarles 11., when, within little more than a hundred years, the whole thmily become extinct, so that at the present time the male and lineal descendants ofthis royal house are no longer to be found. 'As regards the probable consequences of this dreadful misfortune to the reigning dynasty in France, it is of'coursc premature to enter with any niiniiteness upon this head; our remarks will have a surer basis when we‘see the pro- ceedings of the French chambers, and understand more clearly the bearings of' the popular mind. We shall take leave ofthe subject, therefore, with one remark; that the present monarchial government of France, and its best chanceof stability, obviously rest upon the personal vigour and ability of the King; upon his incomparable prudnfiicc and upon that rare union of firmness and moderation of energy and sound discretion, which he has exhibited throhuh a long course ofditficulties, and that, ofall possible modces ofgovernment, nothing seems to be less suited than a loinr ~tninority to establish the peculiar fabric which he has petE serially raised. We cannot, however, fitiish these observations, without a further remark upon the death ofthe late Duke of Orleans. He was: prince educated, like his father, in at school of stem adversuy, had acquired many of the whole- ie llspt soldier, and a prince of courtly ucation. He was well esteemed by tl generally, and had this glorious distinction in his favour,— ‘tbat be was hated by the philosophers, and the ruman rabble of Paris—Bell's Weekly .Messcngcr, July 16. Sousa Pou: ExPEDlTION.—We have .tbo United Service Gazette, witha sig officer of this expedition, dated the Falkland Islands May 1st, received this morning, from which we extract the fol- ’loWing details of the return ofthe expedition.

Tm: MARCHIONESS or WATERFORD.—Thel‘e is now every reason to be sanguine ofthe early restoration to per- fect health ofthis amiable inarchioness—an event that Will be the source of unmixed pleasure to all classes of the com- miinitv. The manufacture ofcambrics is rapidly extending in Ire- land. Nolcss than 10,000 individuals are now engaged by it in the northern districts, and it is discovered that three- fburths of the cambric, handkerchiefs at presant sold in Eng- land under the name of French, are the productions ofIi'ish looms. . _ ' The grand jury have ignored the bills sent up against the police and their officers, who had been on duty at Mr. Bannatync’s stores in Ennis, on the night ofthe fatal ufi'ray. ’l‘ns Fias'r ENGLISH TOWN IN CHiiv.i.—Until within the last year, the probability ofan English town being establish- ed in China, and governed by the same, was a thing unheard- ofl So strongly opposed have the Chinese been to such a measure, and tenacious of strictly adhering to their own customs in all things relating to intercourse with foreign powers, that a fact like this cannot otherwise than surprise, not only themselves, but the whole world. The Cordon Press ofthe 12th and 19th February, received by the last overland 'Mnil, informs us that great activity prevailed at Hong Kong. Houses and godowns were springing itp iii all directions, and in a few months more a new and considera- ble town will have grown into existence. Not only were the Government erecting houses and offices for their purpo- ses, but merchants were gaining more confidence'in the per- manency ofthe establishment, while the Missionaries ofdif- ferent churches had applied for and obtained grants ofland, for the purpose of building chapels and schools. A large native peptiliition had already been collecting, estimated by some at 15,000, biit chiefly composed ofthe poorerclass. A magistracy and police had been established, who though, of course, in their infancy, insufficiently organised to repress the frequent thefts and cheating, will, in time, be doubtless found efficient. The authorities Were backward in granting building lots, from the circumstance that the plan for laying otit the town was not quite completed. There appears to he a general disposition among the English residents that a regular plan for building the streets should be strictly atl- hered to, for the sake of beauty and symmetry, as well asit'or the' health ofthe inhabitants. The King and Queen of the Belgians and suite left Eng- land, on the 5th, for Ostend. > General Bustamente, the ex-Prcsident of Mexico, is at present in Glasgow. A farewell dinner was given to Sir Allan MacNab, on Friday, at the Thatched House Tavern, by the members of the British American Association, the Duke of Richmond in the chair.

In addition to this, they have determined to increase to ten the number oftlieir exhibitions at the Theo- logical College of Coburg, in the diocese of Toronto, and are prepared to make a considerable grant to a new college, for similar purposes, which it is proposed to establish in the diocese of Quebec, and they have alreatly agreed to restore the l:tudentships in the College ofFrederickton, New Bruns- Wic . Sta CHARLES Manure—The Jamaica JlIorning Journal mentions several parting presents which Sir Charles Metcalf'e made on leaving that island. He gave his splendid carriage to Mr. Gayleard, then President of the Council; a pair of his carriage horses to Mr. Panton, the Speaker of the As- sembly.—“ We understand that Sir Charles Metcalfe has di- rected the Receiver General to carry to the credit of the island a sum ofSOOOl. and upwards, which -was due to him, being his third ofthe property escheated since he has been in the island. Sir Charles Metcalfe has directed, on leaving the island, that no portion ofthe personal property which he has left behind should be sold, hilt that it should remain and form part ofthe establishment of the King’s house he- longing to the public. He has besides made presents to the clerks in his private secretary‘s office, and directed 3001. to be divided between the domestics ofliis late estab- lishment.” ' FRANCE—In the French journals of \Vednesday, the Right of Search question is again revived, and nothing is talked of by the Opposition but the insolence of England, and the scandalous conduct of her officers and men on the Afi'ican station. They are now for abolishing the right ofscarch altogether—or, in other words, rc-cstablishing the slave- trade in all its unmitigated horrors. V The French government have published their prohibitory tariff; for such it truly is, and have thus established the two unpleasant and rather important points, that the public feeling in France is adverse and almost hostile to British interests, and that the government has been compelled in some degree to succumb to this mischievous and turbulent spirit ofthe community. The rate ofthe duties is itch as spirit ofthe people is also such as to tie up the hands of the government against all relaxation. The Paris papers from Thursday to Sunday are almost exclusively occupied with the approaching electoral'struggle. The general impression is, that the Conservative party will obtain a considerable accession to its strength. Whichever way the elections turn, however, it does not appear to be doubted, that not only will the treaty of 1841 never be rati- fied,dbut that the conventions of 1831 and 1833 will be abro- gate . Palatine—There are advices from Lisbon to the 27th of June. Neither the slave-trade nor commercial treaty were signed, but the two Plenipotentiaries had come to a better understanding, and there was little doubt of the treaties being forwarded, signed, within a week or fortnight.

AFFGHANISTAN. From our armies in Affghanistnn the news is ofa 11105t cheering character. General Pollock had arrived at J_el- hilabad, relieving Sale and the licrmc garrjson ofthnt'lolt‘ tress, on the 15th oprril. He had experienced-but e opposition on his march, except from sonic rovmg ti:l is; who had only succeeded in cutting offa few camels, an e had even been able, when assured of Sale’s safety, to de- tach a part of his forces to the assistance ofa friendly chief: . _ We copy the following details fi'om various sources :— JELLALABAD.—Genel'ul Pollock arrived at Jellalnbadtand effected ajunction with the troops composingvthe garrison oftliut fortress, on the 16th of April. The British force inet with no opposition or annoyance after passing Ali MUSjid, except that arising from the attempts ofa few marauding hands of Khyberries to plunder and carry off the baggage. With the exception, however, of a few camels, everything belonging to the troops was brought in safety to Jellnlabad. General Pollorzk would have arrived there two or three days sooner, but as the defeat of Aklibar Khan on the 7th of April had secured the safety of Jellalabad, and rendered rapid movements on the part of the advancing forceiun- necessary, the General halted on the batik ofthe Cabul river, and sent strong detachments of cavalry and infantry to Lull- poora, on the opposite side, for the purpose of restoring Tor- abaz Khan in his rights over that place. This chief has iii- variably been friendly to the British. He supplied ‘General Sale’s force with provisions for a considei-able’time. By this means he drew on himself the enmity of Akhbar Khan, and was compelled to fly to Peshawur. The worthy chief was reinstated in his possessions without difficulty, but we regret to say that three men belonging to her Majesty’s 3d Dragoons were swept away by the current, and drowned in attempting to cross the river. On the 26th oprril, Captain Colin Mackenzie, ofthe Ma- dras army, arrived at Jellalabad. The officer had been re- leased oti his parole by Akhhar Khan, and was the bearer of‘proposals from that chiefand'Mehomed Schah Khan, the Ghilzie, to General Pollock, for the release ofthe Ladies and other persons taken in the disastrous. retreat from Cabul. How far the negotiation has progressed, or what may have been the nature ofGeneral Pollock’s reply, has not yet tran< spired. The whole of the prisoners were confined in two smai‘l forts ‘ in tlie'Tezeen valley, and Were tolerably Well treated by their captors; 'Captain Mackenzie brought intel- ligence of General Elphinstonc’s death, which took place either on the 23rdor 24th of'April. The General’s remains were to be brought to the British camp for interment, Akh- bar Khan having offered to forward the body to Jellalabad, which place it was expected to reach on the night following Captain Muckcuzie’s arrival. The day previous to his death, the unfortunate General signed a document containing a de- tailed account ofthe proceedings connected with the Cabul insurrection. This narrative cannot but prove highly inter- esting, and as Lord Ellenhorough seems lundably desirous of giving publicity to everything connected with the recent transactions beyond the Indus, we trust ere long to be able to lay the deceased General’s account before our readers. All doubt as to who took the tnost active part: in the assassi- nation of Sir William Macnaghton is now at an end; Capt. Mackenzie having asserted that he saw Akhbar Khan perpe- trate the murder. Grimace—The following officers who were quartered in Ghuznce at the time ofits capitulation are said, on the alt- tbority ofa native liorsekeeper, to have escaped with their lives, and to be now in the hands of some of the insurgent chiefs:—Colonel Palmer, Captain Alston, Ensign Williams, Lieutenant Harris, Lieutenant Barnes, Lieutenant Crawford, ofthe Bombay establishment, a doctor, and another officer whose names Were not known. Lieutenant Lumsdeu and his Wle were killed. The greater portion of the Sepoys, after having been plundered and otherwise maltreated by the Ghilzics, were permitted to take shelter iii the adjoining villages. Somme—From Scinde, our latest intelligence is also ofa favorable nature. Pursuant to peremptory orders frOm Ge- neral Nott, Brigadier England, with’ 2,500 men, left Quettah on the 26th of'April for Candahar, a portion of the force at the latter placo having been detached so as to meet General England, and aid him in getting the convoy through the Kojnck Pass. 0n the 29th of April, the General reached the heigth ofI'kaulzie, the scene ofhis late discomfiture (reported in our last summary.) No time was lost in attack- ing the enemy’s position, and we are happy to say, the at- tempt was stlccessftil. A well-directed fire from the amine. ry compelled the insurgents to evacuate their outposts whilst the British infantry were ascending the hill. The enemy lost five .standards, and had about 50 killed. The casualties on otir Slde were very trifling, no lives having been lost.
