The great evil which the enemies of " free trade" would persuade us has been done by this " free trade," they tell us has been produced in the manufacture of silk, and that the Midas manufacturers of silk have been nearly ruined, and that this ruin has produced calamities which have spread over all the rest of the nation. Now we see by the accounts before us that the silk imported into England consists of three descriptions—raw, thrown (or spun), and manufactured ; the raw silk being that which has undergone no process whatever, except winding off the nest of the worm ; the second being merely twisted so as to be fit for weaving ; the third having undergone the further process of weaving and dyeing. which, as any one may conjecture, are much more laborious and expensive than the previous ones. The raw silk is brought here to be spun, and woven and dyed ; the thrown silk to be woven and dyed by British labour. Now it will be seen by the table we have printed, that the quantity of raw silk imported is of between three and four times the value of the thrown, and the raw and thrown together more than four times the value of the manufactured silk. But as the raw and thrown silk has a great addition made to its value by the labour employed on it after it is imported, while the manufactured silk receives no additional value after its importation, the difference in quantity is still greater than it appears on the face of the account. The quantity and value of the silk goods manufactured here from the 2,700,000/.'s worth of raw and thrown silk, must greatly ex ceed (we should suppose 13 fold) the foreign silk goods imported ready manufactured. But what we principally wish to inquire into at present is, not the comparative quantities of foreign and British silk goods con sumed, though the latter appears to be too much the greater ; nor the state of the British manufacture, though the accounts seem to prcve that the silk employed in it has increased so greatly ; but what the utmost extent which the effect produced by foreign silks could possibly have without reference to any counteracting causes. The quantity of foreign manufactured silk in the last year ap pears to have been, adding Indian and European together, 676,9731. But we must not stop here. By two other accounts of the exports, too long for us to print, it appears that in ins, the last year in the account we have printed, there was re-exported, of the raw and thrown silk ins juiced, to the value of 31,7771. only ; but of the silk manufac tures of India and Europe there were re-exported to the value of 1x:1,6801. and of British manufactured silk there was exported to the value of 255,75.11. If we add these last sums together, we shall find they ma►e 458,4351. which deducted from 676,9731. leaves 238,5311. as the amount by which the value of foreign silk goods imported and lett for consumption exceeds the value of those exported or re-exported. But small as this quantity is compared with the mighty effects attributed to it,—when we consider it with a view to these effects, it must be still farther reduced. The raw material of silk goods being very valuable, we must, in order to know the utmost pos sible effect which could be produced on British labour by the un pin Luton of 450,C00/.'s worth of goods, deduct the cost of this raw material. If we t.ke it at a fourth—which ',quite little enough —we shall reduce the suns which represents the foreign labour em ployed in the manufacture to about 160,0001. Audit is this feather which is to overthrow the colossus of British power; not the hundreds of millions of subsidies,—not the two millions of debt,--not the 53 millions of tales, hut a balance of I tto,oool. iti the interchange of nbands and Bandanas! Is it pos s ible that there can be an attempt to persuade English men that this is an adequate cause of national distress? If these .C234,000'1 worth of silk goods had dropped ?from the sky, or foreigners had presented a free gift to the people of this country (which, according to those who are alarmed at the importation, would be a great evil), still the quantity of British labour it could have displaced must have been inconsiderable; but they were not a free gift—there must have been something given for them in re turn, on which British labour, to an equal amount, most have been expended. hit not sheer nonsense then, insulting to the common understandings of men, to hold up such a eause as being by any possibility to be reckoned among great national evils? And this is to be reckoned as an evil greater than taxation, when the very dog. tax amounts to nearly the whole sum in dispute. But our main object in printing the account was to enable our readers, who can dwell and peruse on it article by articl e , t o see how small can be the effect produced by the competition of all fo reign manufactures, when they know, on the other hand, a few of the gross sums of value of British manufactures exported.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 15. ICILLOCK V. TILE EAST LONDON WATF.It-WORKS COMPANY. TM. was an inquiry to ascertain the amount of compensation to which the plaintiff was entitled for the removal of his premi— set, and consequently loss of his business, at Lee-bridge. The premises were held by the plaintiff under a lease, of which 22 years of the term were unexpired, and the Company have purchased the freehold for the purpose of their works. The Arrosmar-Ganar.AL (with whom was Mr. PLATT) said that the object of both parties was to arrive at the truth by the most rigorous investigation, in order that the plaintiff might receive that which his premises were fait ly and reasonably worth. To settle this question satisfactorily, and it was an important question on the part of his client, he had to propose that two scientific Gentlemen should be named to view the premises, and in short perform the functions of the Jury, who, without a minute examination of the subject over which they were to exercise their discretion, could not be expected to do that sort of justice betweep the pa rties which they had a right to anticipate. As the premises were at such a distance from town as to render a view of them by the Jury impossible without great delay, he (the Attorney-General) had to propose that a verdict for 30,000 i. or any other sum, should be taken by consent, with liberty to increase er diminish the amount in such manner as the persons to be appointed arbitrators. or their umpire, shall appoint. The reason he proposed this mode of ar rangement was, that he recollected a case in which the matter was referred without the precaution of taking such a verdict, and the result was, that although the arbitrator made his award, the mat ter had got into Chancery, and he believed 5,0001. of the money was there locked up.. . _ • The Cyan -The award is to be received, I presume, in the nature of a report made to the Court. The Arroaway-Gassam.—The arbitrator will centify to the Clerk of the Court the nature of his decision, and that decision will be adopted by the Court as its own act, and thereby give validity to the verdict as modified by it. Mr. Sergeant WILDS (with whom were Mr. Sergeant Annum and Mr. 13 lot) concurred in the proposition of the Learned Attorney-General. A verdict for £30,000 was accordingly returned, subject as above mentioned. Thomas Radford was indicted for fraud, in having obtained front Martin Sanderson 21. ad. by falsely pretending that a parcel he produced was to be forwarded by the Wandsworth coach, and that he was to be paid 2s. Bd. on leaving it. Mr. Sanderson resides at the sign of the Bull, in Oxford-street, and is in the habit of booking parcels for vat ions coaches. On the 7th instant the prisoner brought a parcel, and asked if any gentle man going by the Wandsworth stage had been inquiring for Mr. Sanderson told hint that he had beard nothing about it. The prisoner replied. " Ob, it soon will be called for, and there is 21.8 d. to pay." Mr. Sanderson, from having been before imposed on, suspected it to be a false parcel, and desired the prisoner to call again, and that in the mean while be would speak to the Wands. worth coachman on the subject. On the prisoner's return the money was paid him in marked coin, and the instant after he was taken into custody by a patrole named Allen, who bad been em ployed for the purpose. On opening the parcel it was found to consist of pieces of old bagging and other rubbish. Verdict—Gni/Iy. The Chairman (pro tempore) Mr. Maastorr, sentenced hint to three months Imprisonment. Williams Gaynor, pleaded Guilty to four several indictments, charging him with obtaining parcels of almonds, raisins, oranges, marmalade, and other sweetmeats, from Stephen Marks, by falsely pretending that he was sent by a customer of the said Mr. Marks, named F.trley. The prisoner was about twelve years old, and the Court, in con sideration of his tender age and apparent penitence, sentenced him to only four months imprisonment. William Gore and Henry, the eldest and the youngest sons of Mr. Elliston, of the Surrey Theatre, sailed last week as passengers on board the Chatham, for New South Wales. Was. Gore Is the Gentleman who last season came out as an actor at his father's Theatre. The two brothers are to land at Hobart's Town, and from thence proceed up the country, to follow the avocation of agriculturist.. They have taken with them an ample stock of farming implements, and provisions for their establishment for a twelvemonth. They are provided with a spa cious tent, to answer the purpose of a residence, until they get a house bulk ; a portable copper boiler, capable of being erected in the open air, for brewing or other purposes ; a vast quantity of un wrought iron ; a patent turning lathe; muskets and guns, for de fence and for sport; and every necessary which experience has found requisite for a new settler in that country. The outfit, it is said, cost Mr. Elliston, sen. about £1,500. . _ MONCRIEF, the dramatic writer, is at present in Paris, where be and KINIIST are on the look out for a fresh stock of theatrical stems. for the benefit of the major and minor theatres next campaign. GREIVE, the artist, is gone to Edinburgh, where he is engaged by Mr. MURRAY to paint the scenery for a new panto mime getting up at the Theatre Royal, under his direction. The amiable and excellent actress Mrs. H. SIDDONS, sister of Mr. Muaear, is the exclusive patentee of that theatre. A scorpion, when he finds himself enclosed, and no way left him to escape, will bend his tail round, and sting himself through the head : and it is remarkable that this is the only animal in the creation, man excepted, that can be made to commit suicide. THE AMERICAN Pitoscairriou.—General JACK SON is changing all the Consuls of the United States, and send ing his friends all over the world to take care of his interests. He is so steadily pursuing this system, that in less than six months it is estimated he will have changed almost every per son holding an office in his gift. He has very greatly disgusted all moderate persons by his exclusive devotion to his own friends, as if the possession of the Government might be used merely for party purposes, without reference to the public welfare. He has carried it so far that be has used the power of pardon to set free a criminal, convicted of an aggravated assault, with an intent to murder, and sentenced to a long term of imprisonment, because it is believed he was solicited by some zealous perdue, and be can refuse nothing to his friends. If he appoints the Con suls, as he does the Post-masters, without any previous inquiry, except as to their political feelings. American commerce will suffer for it ; and so will he after he is stripped of office. Yesterday afternoon the neighbourhood of Lambeth , was thrown into alarm by a most tremendous thunder -storm, which, we are sorry to say, did considerable injury to the houses of several of the inhabitants, and also iMured some persons seriously. The inmates of the house of Mr. Capper, of Lambeth-terrace, bad a narrow escape with their lives. Mr. Capper was absent from home at the time of the alarming shock ; none but his niece, Miss Ward, the groom, and other servants, were in the house. Their attention, immediately after the clap of thunder, was attracted by as explosion resembling the loud report of a gen, which caused the foundation and the whole of the premises to totter, and immediately after the whole roof of the !mule, with two stacks of chimnies, gave way and fell in with sreat force. The adjoining houses were also consi derably injured. The servants state that the moment they heard the report, they observed a large ball of bre come down the chim ney and pass through the kitchen, towards the door, when it dis appeated. Miss Ward happened to be at the time in one of the upper apartments, and it was nruc► feared by the domestics that she had fallen a sacrifice. The groom, however, proceeded to her assistance, and discovered her exceedingly terrified. Much of the furniture in the upper part of the house was injured. At about the :me time a similar shock was felt at Mrs. Barlow's, next door, but the injury was nut so extensive as at Mr. Capper's. The but ler was in one of the spartments when a thunderbolt came through the chimney, and striking his legs, laid him senseless on the Soot I but be afterwards recovered. The house adjoining was also shaken. and the parapet stones forced away from the front. At at Lambeth School, one of the scholars was very much injured by the lightning. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DONCASTER MEETING, 1829. Domains, Meaner Nunn. The bad weather mitt give his Majesty's mare an advantage, for her running at Goodwood proved her ability to get through deep ground : she is now on her own ground, and is in great favour with the Yorkshire people, who turn up their noses at " your Zinpnee"—who, they spy, is a tad galloper, and has no reach. They are also sweet upon Laurel, who, besides, being in better trim than be has been all the season before, is allowed to run better here than any where else. Looking therefore at these two. at Granby, Medoro, and Delphine, and the largeness of the field, the North Country knowing ones are in astonishment at the place Zingsnee holds in the betting. There appears to be some doubt about Chifaey's riding him ; for Dockeray, who is here, is said to have come expressly for that purpose: Moult is also here, and is likewise said to be Wainer!, so that Lord Ches terfield has three jockeys for one horse, and neither of them can say which will be chosen ; with so perfect a knowledge of the horse, and such extraordinary talents, there can be no doubt that . . the public would prefer bim to any other jockey. The famous " dark." or " unknown horse," Murphy, has been here some days, having been brought for the express purpose of running for the Cup, and some of the Plates. By some unaccountable neglect or misapprehension, his trainer suffered the time of entering to go by, without putting down the horse, so that be is now Isere without the least chance of coming out. The trainer, and many others, bad backed him for the Cup, play or pay, and there is great pro bability that he would puzzle some of the cracks. Since our last, the town has received an accession of visitors, to some hundreds in number; carriages and four have been rattling in every minute, enabling us to give the following addition to the list of arrivals already sent:— Lord Southampton, Lord Castlereagh, Lord Ranelagh, Lord Kilmaine, Lord W. Thynne, Lord W. Powlett, Baron Oxen- Micro. Count Montrond, Sir Mark Wood, Sir W. Askew, Admi ral Sotheron, General Sharpe, Hoo. T. G. Powlett, Hon. G. An ion, Hon. C. Abbott, Hon. S.Wortley,Heo.W.

Berkeley • Messrs. Wilier. L a dbrooke . R. Ewbank, W. Ewbank, R. Manes Nowell, M. gtapyiton, Gratwiche, Gascoigne, R. Gascoigne , F. diariton, Forester, Armitage. Watt, &c. Where so many are to be accommodated, in so small a town, it is but a reasonable supposition that the inhabitants will make t h e most of their visitors, and to do the Doncaster people justice, they are not the most backward in the world ; for instance, four bed rooms and a sitting-room are 25 guineas for the meeting, and every horse a guinea for standing; the Duke and Duchess of St. Alban's pay 50 guineas for their apartments, Christopher Wilson, Esq. 35 guineas for his, and there are several others who pay 30, 40, 50, and in two or three instances 60 guineas. The following is a list of the horses likely to run for the St. Leger. We have made inquiries on the subject, and arc enabled to submit the following statement of those which at this period are expected to come to the post to-morrow:— Mr. Robinsou's Bolivar Lord Cleveland's Voltaire Stot for th lerick The Exquisite Lord Langford's Sir Hercules Ik. Forth's Frederick Mr. Ridsdale's Clotilde Mr. Petre's Rowtou Mr. J.

Earnshaw's Elastic Sir E. Dodsworth's Young Patrick Lord Fitswilliam's Sister to Mulatto Mr. Powlett's Penbill t Mr. Clifton's Don Jose Mr. Gibbeson's Lady Sarah (Those marked (t) arc doubtful. • There is nothing the matter with Sir Hercules. Stotforth's legs appear to be very queer, and it is not quite certain that he will run. Frederick, ltowton, Voltaire, the Exquisite, Clotilde, Wan dering Boy, and the Duke of Lee:l's colt, are backed freely ; the others are in no great demand. The above remarks were made previous to this day's running. The weather was fine till just before the walk-over ; it thee be gan raining, and continued, with slight intervals, the remainder of the day. The company on the ground was numerous, and the Grand stand seemed full enough ; still it was not by any means a brilliant assemblage , nor were the equipages so splendid as usual, the only carriage and six being that of the venerable Earl Fitzwilliam, who was attended by two of his stewards on horseback, and eight outriders. We are happy to see the Noble Earl in such Improved health. The Duke of Wellington is expected to-mor row morning. The following will be found a correct detail of this day's sport : The Intzwilliam Stakes of 10 sous. each, and 20 son. added by the Corporation, fur two years old, sst. 10Ib. three, fist. four, 9st. five, 9st. 61b. sir, and aged, 9st. 10Ib.

Lord Fitzwillism's Dora and Mr. Golden's Robin Hood paid. So little were Tyke and the other two who were opposed to Zits genet thought of, that to have talked of the possibility of their beating Zinganee would have appeared a species of insanity ; how ever, tempted by the odds, some of the Yorkshire people (who have all along disputed the claim of the Newmarket pet to the high cbs. cuter accorded him) bad the temerity (as it was considered) to have a little on their own country nags, and accordingly the 5 to 9 and 3 to 1 of the South Country Gentlemen were taken to some amount. At starting, the odds were sto St on Zinganee, and sto 1 against Tyke. When the horses came to the post it struck us that Zinganee was a shade too fat, nor was his galloping ex actly in the same form as we saw at Ascot ; indeed, they now say that °Jitney declined riding him from a conviction that he was not exactly up to the mark. Tamboff made first play at a mid dling pace, Lord Sligo's being second to him; Tyke well laid in, and the "crack" last, on the look-out ; they remained in this po sition till near the rails, when an improved pace brought about a change in the places. Zinganee now began to show himself ; he first went by Lord Sligo's horse, which had just fallen behind Tyke; he then got to with Tyke, and when at the distance Tamboff cried " peccavi," and joined Lastrd Sligo's in the rear. Zinganee and Tyke ran a very severe race honk, the Yorkshire horse winning by about half a head, rode by Templeman, Zinganee by Moult, Tamboff by J. Day, and the other by Shepherd. Some are of opinion that Arnull waited too long ; we do not think so. The Champagne Stakes of 50 sous. each, h. ft. ; for two year old colts, est. 51b. ; fillies, est. Sib. Red House In.

Riddell's, 6 to 1 agst St Nicholas, 6to 1 apt Brunswkker, 7 to 1 apt .Brien, and 8 to 1 agst the winner. Redstart and Mr. Riddell's were the leading horses at going off, the others lying at their beds, well up, with the exception of Bud, who was completely in the rear, not havinsostarted with the others. They continued in this order till they were near the distillate, by which time Forth had contrived to find his way through the crowd; he then went tight a head of all the others. the above tiro tailing off.

Yesterday a Gentleman, accompanied by a Lady of great per. mud beauty, CUM to this Office and applied for a warrant against an Artist, under very cations dreuntstances. There existed, it seemed, a powerful attachment between the Lady now present, and an Officer of Rank in the Army, and the latter, previous to his departure for foreign service, bad his portrait painted by an Artist, and it was declared when finished to be a very talented production. The portrait was of course presented to the Lady, and it need net be stated how highly the precious gift was valued. The Artist had also obtained an introduction to the Lady, and was employed professionally by several of ben friends. He expressed himself grateful for her patronage, and in a respectful manner re quested she would do him the honour to sit to him for her pot. trait, and allow him to send it to the Exhibition in May next, and afterwards present it to her as the humble offering of his grati tude. The Lady, after much solicitation, consented, and he waited upon her for that purpose ; on one of these visits he remarked that the portrait of the officer before alluded to, which hung up in the room, much as it had been admired, was capable of great improve ment, and he begged she would allow him to take it home in order that he might re-touch it in some parts. She was very reluctant to suffer It out of her sight, but at his very earnest entreaty she per mitted faint to take it, on his promise to return it the same day. Several days however elapsed, and the portrait was not forth coming ; the artist, on being ap plied to, admitted that he had sat. feted another lady. who called upon him soon after be returned home, to take it sway. It was useless to apply to that lady to restore it, because it was known that she bad said she would not mind giving 5001. for the possession of the " dear counterfeit." Mr. Hotta—l cannot interfere : the remedy is by civil action only. Applicant—lt occurred to me, Sir, that the artist could be pro. tented criminally ; for I have been informed on the best authority that he received a valuable consideration from the lady who now has the portrait. Mr. Hat.t.o—This a novel application certainly. We are often engaged in listening to quarrels between Ladies about originals, but seldom are called upon to interfere in disputes relating to the portraits only. I cannot assist you. the Lady parted with the portrait voluntarily, and her only remedy now is by an action of trover. The applkant then withdrew with the Lady, who seemed very mush chagrined at the result of the application. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Sarah Zegkerri, a woman upwards of fifty years of age, who seemed to be much &Skied with a series of diseases, was yester day placed at the bar before the presiding Magistrate, Sir G. &s -um, charged with obtaining upwards of 901. under false pre• tenets, from the Parish of St. George's, Hanover-square, by re presenting herself to belong to that paris h, when in fact she was slew receiving relief as a pauper every week from three other pa rishes at the same dale.

She was accordingly apprehended. During all the time she had been standing at the bar she appeared to be very infirm and incapable of supporting herself ; but the gaoler stated that during the time she was coming up from the prison in the morning, she had walked so fast and appeared so strong, that he had some difficulty to keep up with her. The ease was ordered to stand over to see if the palish of St. George's would prosecute. James Robinson, a German by birth, who has represented him. self under the assumed name of Boon Ruddesdort, was charged with violently assaulting Mr. Miller (the proprietor of the English and Italian operas), together with two watchmen. The complainant stated that he was sitting in his shop in the Royal Arcade, when the detendant came in, at about ten o'clock on Monday night, and being much in liquor, immediately asked for a chair, and expressed his determination of sitting there. Mr. Miller remonstrated with him, informing hint that he was engaged in a very difficult translation of Italian, and delay would be a great loss to him. Immediately upon this the defendant struck hint vio lently, and upon the watchman being called be laid about him with great fury, and lacerated the watchman's head in a dreadful man ner.—Sir Groaaz immediately ordered hint to hod bail, and ex pressed his opinion that the assault was a very gross one. MARY-LA-BONNE. Dire. Maria Harding, a lady of fashionable appearance. residinz in Baker -street, yesterday appeared before the presiding Nlagif. trate, R. GRIFFITHS, Esq. charged with assaulting h.r servant, Maria Brinden.

Mr. Gairmas inquired what the defendant had to say to the charge preferred against her? The Lady replied, that the complainant bad always experienced the most handsome treatment at her hands ; she had maintain*: her nearly from a child ; and during the time she was in the Lying- In Hospital with an illegitimate child, had kept her, but she had lately become very insolent. The Lady concluded by stating that she had never struck the complainant, but had only pushed her slightly out of the room. Mr. GRIFFITES said that, under these must pay the expenses. the Lady Mr. JOHN HARVEY, of Comber, near Belfast, a great botanist, died on Friday, of that terrible malady hydrophobia, in duced by the bite of a deg so far distant as June last. qf IMPORTS into GREAT BRITAIN fr.m FOREIGN PARTS. 16 MATZO OF vaLuimon.
