ACCIDENT AT LIVERPOOL.—(FEIIITHER PAIITICO• was.)—At the time the accident occurred, several men, employed in sinking a Inundation for another warehouse on an adjoining lot of gr,und, were resting in the excavation, and all of them were, by the suddenness of the accident, completely' overwhelmed by the falling materials, with the exception of two, who were soon, lh'osigla with much difficulty, extricated from the ruins. The extricating one of these poor fellows was attended with considerable trouble, from the circumstance of 'his being , with the exception of his head, en tirely hurled in the ruins, the attempt to remove any portion of which threatened to bring upon him the superincumbent loam of rubbish. Happily such judicious arrangements were made that he was relieved from his perilous situation, though with one of hie kgs broken. The other was got opt sons hours afterwards; but life was totally extinct. A young woman and two children were extricated from the ruins, but very much bruised; one of them bey, of about ten years of age, had his bead much fractured. The bodies el three children have also been found. Tuesday evening about six o'clock, the body of a child was taken out of the ruins of the house adjoining the warehouse. The child is supposed to•have died from suffocation, as the body did not appear in the least braised.

The Greek corsairs carry on piracy to such an extent, that, without fear or reserve, they plunder and murder the crews, confiscate ships and their cargoes, whatever be their destination, their Sag, or their owners. For some months we have no news of a great number of vessels; and must believe that, after having been plundered, they have been sunk, with their crews. The whole Levant is like a wood filled with robbers. Our Road is corn. pletely blockaded by five or six Greek vessels, which ,spare nobody, so that they have not even respected au lonian sup, toming.troni Spa with Greek passengers. All the hopes of unfartunate Mariners. are now placed On the energy of Marquis Paulacci, whose arrival is impatiently expected at Napoli-di Romania. We have several ships which have been pillaged; the Captains and crews, without money, without previsions, stripped even of their shirts on their backs, insulted, abused, mal treated, groan under all the horrors of misery and oppres sion; An English brig of war,which arrived the day befire yesterday, relates, that at Napoli and ftydra the Greeks are daily coming to blows with each other, to snatch from each other the fruits of their rapine. Such are the brave actions of those who have met with so many par tizans. If the Germans, who feel so much inteiest in them. were as well acquainted with them as we are, it is certain that all their enthusiasm would vanish. Captain Rtdimiri is dead at Napoli of vexation and ill treatment. A vessel went to Napoli with the important gift of uniforms for 10,000 Greeks, and has been re ceived with so much civility and gratitude, that it was ribbed in the port of the goods (French property), which completed its cargo from Smyrna, and the Captain and crew were ill treated, and stripped even of their clothes. UAYENCE, JULY 27. FROM THL ORSURVER OF TRIRSTF.. The Election in the Grand Duchy of Hesse. for the thew Chamber of Deputies, which is shortly to meet proceeds very slowly. In Darmstadt the Magistrates have issued a circular to the citizens, threatening to publish the names of those who do not exercise their political rights by voting for the choice of Deputies. In some towns the Magistrates have been obliged to send police officers and soldiers to the houses of the voters, to fetch the polling papers, which by the Constitution they should deliver themselves. In other places, where the Magistrates hesitated to adopt these or similar measures, no votes have been given ; and in the Upper Hesse the people have positively refused to have anything to do with the election for arty Chamber of Deputies. A de putation from that province, sent respectfully to intimate to the Grand Duke the motive of this refusal, was not ad mitted to an audience. One chief reason of the dislike of the people to our representative Constitution is that the last Diet passed a law on the Finances, which instead of reducing the very high taxes added new ones, which have proved very injurious to the general prosperity..— The real squrce of the dissatisfaction with out Constitu tion is, however. partly the defective and complicated mode of election, shich requires three distinct opera.' tions ; and partly, perhaps chiefly, in the fact that the Constitution is not adapted to the manner and customs of the inhabitants, and of the state of knowledge among them. The Provincial Assemblies in the middle ages, which at that time bad so beneficial an influence on the public prosperity, consisted of etepoties for the several estates, who received from coastituentb precise instructions froth which they were 05 allowed to deviate ; and being supported by nume rous and powerful Corporations, naturally had great • - 1 BLACK OPULATION IN Ta COLONIES.

GLASGOW, AUGUST 10. Yesterday, between twelve and cne o'c'ock, the large Warehouse Commonly known by the name of Pool's .vraxehouse, consisting of seven stories, at the corner on thewest , side of Lydia Ann street, and south side of Suffolk-treet, ►uddenly fell down with a tremendous crash:.

(14‘the 4th, the appeal of Dubois de Chemant against tilt judgment of the Tribunal de Premiere Instance, which had dismissed his original action against the Earl of Bridgewater, with costs, came on to be heard before - the Cour Royale of Fr: nce. The Counsel for M. De Chemant stated his client's ca'e with an ability which was worthy a better cause, but unfortunately the state merits he . was instructed to make wire totally void of proof, and must have appeared to every one present at the hearing to be without foundation, in fact, in law, or in common sense. The task of his Lordship's advo cate, in reply, was easy, and his eloquence of greater effect, because his facts were clear and evident, and his arguments incontestable, being raised upon the basis of truth and justice. He stated, that M. De Chemant had had the imprudence to put forth to the Court, in the shape of a mem. it (hut uosanctioned by any Counsel, and which no Counsel could be found to sanction. M ith his name), and had even the ill-judged audacity to dis tribute in Coffee Houses, Reading Rooms, and other public places—a libel, casting the most injurious and unjustifitiliterefl ctions on the character and conduct of his Lordship, e'en exposing, in the most reprehen sible ma , nei. those infirmities nine and sickness, which only became known to him in his professional character, and which every , practitioner, having the slightest deli cacy, or the least regard for his own reputation, would have held as a sacred confidential trust. And this was done with a view of intimidating his Lordship into a compliance with the snot bitart demands he (M. De t hernant) cho•e to make upon him. His Lordship's Counsel, therefore, claimed from the Court the suppres sion of this infamous production, and demanded ex emplary damages for that which was equally an insult to the public and to the I+l'ible Earl—declaring, at the same time, his Lordship's desire, that whatever the Court might award should be applied to the purposes of charity. In this claim his Lordship's Counsel was firmly supported by the King's Advocate General, M. De Brue, who conceived the Court could not suffer parties to distort legal proceedings into libellous defamations. and he, in his public capacisy, demanded the suppression of this disgraceful memoir. The sentiments of the Court, who heard the appeal . of M. De Chemant, and the claim made against him, as well by the King's Advocate as by his Lordship's Counsel, will be best shown by giving in terms the judgment it pronounced on both points :— " The Court considering that,in addition to the disgracefulness of a professional man's exposing, with irony and ridicule, the infirmities which he was called on to relieve, Dubois de Chemant had heaped up calumnious imputations on the morals of the defendant ; and now dehvering judgment, as well upon the claim he makes upon the Earl of Bridgewater, u upon the demands of the public Officer (the King's Advocate), for the suppression of the memoir, decrees that the appeal be diunissed, that the decision appealed against be c onfirmed, orders the memoir of 1.1. Do Chesnut to be suppressed, viaticums bins in 1000 francs damages, with payment of alt costs." A 6oe and promising youth, aged 17, son of Dr. Bticstuats., of Exeter, was unfortunately drowned in the re on Thursday. whilst bati: E iog.

Notwithstanding the bold allegations of restored prosperity in that par• ticulat branch, every soul you consult in the -neigh. b urhood is at a loss for the proofs. I made a few 1414 qu;ries of one of the Committee who distribute the charitable funds, and he assured . rne that they hailed as many tickets as ever. In order to prolong the benefit of those hinds, they now refuse to furnish the rations gratuitously to the people who are at all in work, and require of them to pay . from a fourth to a half of the cost of the food which they receive. This - regulation does not result from more haads being engaged; but from the danger in which they were placed, just at the time of the last remittance from Landon, of stopping altogether the issues of food and tickets. • As to the state of business here to day; it is asserted with more concord of opinion than I have before ob ►erved, that there is a :yang stir; more goods have been sold in what is called " ttigtray" state fot print ing, and fustian; are said to demand a better price.-- Printed goods are as low as ever. Twist has, been sold largely, according to the same account, within these two days: . DUBLIN, Auoysr 10.

During the entire of Sunday se'nnight, the Market. cross at Carlow, a part of the town into which tour streets open, was occupied by a dense crowd of country labourers, wh9se object was to meet the farmers and obtain engagements for the harvesting of the present week. They were joined by others of their class, men principally resident in the village of "Graigue, on the Queen's County side of the Barrow. The latter, finding the rate of hire accepted by the former to fall short of the wages without which they themselves were unwilling to work, determined, in failure of the plan of combina tion, to break the sickles of the intruding clodhoppers, as the Graigueites called them, and suspend their en gagements. The work immediately commenced.-;-- Many sickles were broken, and numerous blows inter changed. SeijeantValentine, of the Carlow polls who attempted to preset ve gullet, was assaulted. Another of the con•tabulary was knocked down, and a Graigueite ringleader, about to be brought before the Magistrates, was rescued, and borne off in triumph by his compa nions, brandishing their sickles. Three or four of the principal rioters among the crowd were brought befote the Sovereign, and committed.
