ebe Stock Eiehange, ip 1814, was, compared l o i liosaz of the Poyais Loan? The contrivers of o i l jam, mast have known that there existed not even any e m s elements of the requisite basis for such a transaction ; so b not see what they could plead in bar of indictment k r obisielug money upon false pretences. Certainly a tio gettation to the, 'lye's's, which they described at bpi& is the least punishment they deserve. The poor sw im, trimmere to bevels,' saddled with the payment if phis loan, deserve the Kreatest commiseration, although sc ;01 emigrations are undertaken without that degree of which should accompiny a step which cannot be Maws. The Government is much to blame in not iggplex matured a rational scheme of emigration, to take Artist redundant population of the mother country ; at the only means of checking the accumulation o f misery from the emigration of parties to situ. Wens for which they are utterly unfitted, and from ping to places which might suit them, under circum. Bisects calculated to destroy the advantages that might be ! gaped. We have abundance of 4esirties that do but little good; but, if the Government continues to neglect the lm runt duty of regulating emigration,in such a manner as to forward both the interest of the emigrants, and of the l other.country, a society of intelligent men to supply the deficiency would be a most important desideratum. There is a letter in London, from the British Consul at Ferrol, which is dated on the 15th instant, and which says, that a mice for three days had been concluded 'betwixt the Governor of Corunna and the French General de Bourck. Another letter has been received in Liverpool by an emineet Corunna merchant, dated in Ferrol on the 16th August ; which, so far from confirming any armistice betwixt the contending parties, assert, that Corunna continued to make share defence, and that there was no immediate prospect of #eabuiission. It is impossible to unravel the conflict ion testimony on this subject till farther information be received, butte the meantime all the friends of Spanish in depasilencennesrtain well grounded hopes that necessity I s ar r eciesprled the French army to abandon the siege of Comma. and that an armistice either has been actually Alibied frogs the Constitotiosaihos. or has been assumed to be so. in order that the disgrace of a retreat may receive the palliation of having arisen from choice, and trot from say eempulsion, occasioned by a hostile movement in the rear of the French army.

GRAND DINNER IN THE TOWN-HALL. On MOWday evening the Chief Magistrate, Wm. Mo!Tom, Esq. entertained a party of *bolt eighty Gentlemen to dinner, in the Town-hall. Amongst the company there were the Right Honourable George Canning, the Right Honourable William Huskisson, Lord George Renaud ; Mr. Hughes, Charge d'Af faires from the United States of America to Sweden ; Lord Blaney, Prince Sapieha, Joseph Birch, Esq. M.P. John Glad stone. Esq. M.P. Edward Bootie Wilbraham, Es q. M.P. John Blackburn, Esq. M.P., John Ireland Blackburn, Esq. M.P. Sir Thomas Dalrymple Hesketh, Bart. Arthur Heywood, Esq. and 'Thomas Booth, Esq. The Earl of Derby, Lord Stanley, the Earl of Sefton, and Lord Molyneux, were Invited ; but the two former Noblemen were prevented from attending by other engagements, and the two latter had not arrived from London. Amongst the toasts drunk in the course of the seeming were the following:— " His Majesty, the Duke of Laneester." " The Duke of York and the Army." " The Duke of Clarence and the Navy." "The Lord Lieutenant of the County. ' "The Right lion. George Canning. ' Mr. Canning returned thanks% a complimentary speech of some length : after which was drank " Tie Right Hon. i William Huskisson." Mr. Huskisson expressed his ac knowledgement for the honours conferred on him by the company and by the town, and to many gentlemen then present, for the assistance and reserved communication's, upon several important questions which bad been under the consideration of the Board of Trade during the last session of Parliament. He could not sit down without a , - suring them, that among the ninny gratifications which he had received during the last week which be had spent in Liverpool, there was none which he had priced more than the indications which this gre t t town afforded, in every quarter, that all the great interests which connected its industry anti the comfort of its cumerous population with the general prosperity of the country, were in a most thriviog state. With this view of the present situation of affairs, which could not, he was convinced, be controverted by any fair man of any political party, and with an ardent wish that the streams of that prosperity might continue to flow uninterruptedly towards the " good old town of Liver. pool," he sat down, once more thanking the company for the honour conferred upon him. " General Gascoyne' was then given, and Mr. Hnskis son, in the absence of his colleague, returned thanks for him, and concluded by proposing the health of the Mayor, which was drank with marked applause. His Worship duly expressed his acknowledgments, and concluded by giving the " Junior Burgess of Liverpool." Mr. 111.1SKIS8PS returned thanks for the honour which bad been conferred upon him, by enrolling lii.s name among thole freemen to whose kindness he was so much indebted. Mr. CANNING said, that with the kind permission of the Chair, he rose to propose a toast which be felt confident would he received 'by the company with the most sincere and cordial satisfaction. He alluded to the health of the distinguished stranger near him, who was on his way to Sweden. as the representative of his country, the United States of America. lie was most happy to avail himself of this opportunity, amidst so large an assemblage of some of the first merchants of Fngland, of congratulating that Gentleman on the full and uninterrupted intercourse which stow existed between his country anti our own; an inter. course, of which the value could be nowhere so well under stood as in this great town, which was, both in point of local situation and of spirit and cnterprize, so preeminently qualified to derive front that intercourse every possible advantage. On such an occasion he might be permitted to express the g ratification , which he felt, in common with the great mass of the intelligent and liberal men of both eountries, to see the animosities necessarily attendant on a state of hostility so rapidly wearing away, and giving place so feelings so much more consonant to the true interests of two nations united by a common language, a common spirit of commercial enterprise, and a common regard for well regulated liberty. It appeared to him, that of two such States the relative position was not wholly unlike that which occasionally occurred in families; where, a child hav ing, perhaps, displeased a parent—a daughter, for instance, in contracting a connection vii ensive to that parent's feelings, some estrangement wool:: fora while necessarily ensue; but after a lapse of time the irritation is forgotten, the force of blood again prevails, and the daughter and the mother staid together against the world. That all causes of dissension may have now ceased for ever between two countries so strongly bound to each other, and with so clear a community of inter ests, he most sincerely hoped ; and he trusted, that in whatever part of the world Mr. Hughes might represent his country, he would feel that in no part of it could that country's merits be more truly appreciated titan in this. The toast was drunk with marked applause, and Mr. HUGHES returned thanks in nearly the following terms:—" Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen—l shall not presume to take up more of your time than may he barely sufficient for the expression ol* my sincere and heartfelt thanks, for the flattering reception and welcome wills which I am ho noured on this occasion ; a reception and a welcome so far above the claims of an humble and unimportant individual such as I am, that 1 delight to ascribe 'them exeltisirely to the friendly feelings of the inhabitants of Liverpool fur the country to which 1 belong, and which I have so recently left; and I can earne-tly assure the distinguished and en• lightened company here assemblerl,that there is not a reflect ing man among my countrymen who dues not feel con vinced, that such " are the proper and the only feelings" that should be inculcated, and that should subsist between the British and the American people; and I can add to this assurance my sincere persuasion, that both my country's Government and its citizens are animated by the lirmest re solution to neglect no honourable means of avoiding all pernicious political discrepancies, anti of maintain-, ing the happy footing of peace and confidence, which is the present basis of our relations with Great Britain,—' a basis more solid and more sure, perhaps, at this mo ment than at any former period of our short history.— Though not an ofd man, 19m old enough to have witnessed many an unhappy and many a lamentable misunderstand ing between the two nations; and to have seen, with feel ings of the deepest sorrow, that no effort of wisdom and moderation; no dictate of peace and affection, sentiments so natural and so proper to nations the common offspring of one common stock; nay, no motive, even of interest, has been sufficiently powerful to preserve them from the common and fatal error of war, front the wretched and unnatural struggle "of trying to do each other the most harm." But I have also seen that war hap pily terrain .ted ; and Ms the happiest incident of my life to have hail a share, " though a very humble one," in the lapours of that Congress of 1814, that had the merit and the glory of gutting an end to that unnatural and cruel struggle, and of restoring the two nations to the more wise and humane disposition of " trying to do each other the most good." Long and sincerely may this disposi. tion be cherished! Long may the noble and unrivalled works constructed by this great and public spirited town, for the accommodation of comm.irce—vour vast and capacious docks, present to the eye of the philanthropist, the busy, and the cheering scene that they now exhibit—a scene that I have visited this day under circumstances the memory . of which I shall always cherish • [bowing to Mr. Canning and Mr. Huskisson] • a scene made up of thick and almost impervious forests Of English and American masts, topped • Mr. Hughes had been invited by the St. George Steam Packet Company, to be of the party riven in the morning, in the Steam Packet the Emerald Isle, to Mr. liuskisson and Mr. Canning; and Mr. Canning, Mr, Hoskisson, Lord George Bentieck, and Mr. Gladstone, with some other Gentlemen, had accompanied Mr. Hughes, after the aquatic excursion men tioned in another column, to visit the beautiful American ship Canada, Captain Mscy, lying in the Prince's Dock, in which ship Mr. Hughes had arrived a few days before from America, it Nit* the fourth consecutive passage the Canada has made in less than 17 day s, from New York to Liverpool.

Long may the gallant tars of my country inflict upon Liverpool the hardships of each bold invasions; 'and fall hands be beat to quarters, to pour into you. Gentlemen, whole broadsides of cotton and tobacco, and manfully to receive a consent fire of calicoes and cutlery ; I I must apologise for having occupied so much of your time; and especially must I not omit to offer you, Gentlemen, my acknowledgments for the patience and the indulgence you have shown me; for it cannot be necessary for me to say, after what you have seen and heard, that I am totally an-' skilled and unpractised in the art of public speaking, though I have found myself unexpectedly called on to speak before this respectable Meeting, and in the presence of the. great master of modern eloquence, the accomplished scholar and enlightened statesman. lVith the Mayer's and your per mission, I will venture to propose a toast:—" The Town of Liverpool ind the United States of America; their Trade and their Friendship ; may they a'l go on increasing."

From the various accounts we have seen respecting the weather and the harvest, we are inclined to think that snore rain has fallen in Wilts than in either of the adjoining counties; and that the harvest generally is more backward. A great deal of Wheat has been housed in Berkshire dur ing the last fortnight; and in Devon and Somerset they have reached the middle of their harvest; while in many we have scarcely begun. The warm drizzling rains in the latter part of last week, have caused the grain, here an I there, to re•sprout ; but generally speaking, the crops are yet sound ; and if the weather should prove fine for the next fortnight, we slisll have an abundance in excellent condition.—(Deei.vcs Gu.nite.) The harvest in this neighhourhoml has hitherto proceed ed slowly, from the very tickle weather • but we were yesterday gratified with the information dim experienced horticulturist and practical farmer, that the little herb called Shepherd's Purim was snore generally open than it has been this year before ; and this little plant is well known to be referred to as a sign of fine weather.—The corn round Stamford is nearly all cut ; and the report of the crops is favouralsla with respect to every thing but beans.—(StanVbrel Mercurg.) In different parts of Staulli, notices are stuck on the church doors—that the farmers will not use the thrashing machine so long as the distress of the agricultural la bourers and the poor may continue. The East India Company's ship, Thames, is reported to have arrived at Penang on the 31 April. Etsr INDIA COMP tAV.r—lt appears from °facial Document; that the East India Company have acquired by toe suceessful termination of tue late Millman& war, a vast extent of valuab:e country, and a net additional annual revenue of upwards of One Million Thirty Thousand Pound; sterling This large increase of revenue is derived from three different sources— Rupees. From the Ptialowa .10.00.000 From the linosltia State And from lloikar Making together an annual total of 81,47,200 Besides this, it is said, that the Company were I kewise en rimed in various ways in the course of this war. Hors.—Caxver, nv, Atiliusr IS.—The few days of fine warm weather, have been productive of great benefit to the hops. Those grounds which a short time since bore but a mean appearance, now begin to brush up, and put ou a very different aspect. In some, however, where the mould has token too great hold, they will not be affected by any weather. We know of a grower, who oalculates upon picking 600 cwt. an acre ; but there are many not worth picking at all. On Saturday night, about a quarter before twelve o'clock, the house of Air. Cragg, fanner, of Normanton, near Dot tesford, in the county of Leicester, was attacked by five men, who fired four tin s at the kitchen door ; one ball actually passed ilitoitgli the ontward, and entered the in ward door, which fortunately missed Mr. Cragg's son, who was passing at the time. On an alarm hieing given by the family, the villains retreated. Four of the men are taken, viz. an. hall us, Win. Stokes, (lately servant to Mr. Cragg), Thomas Osborne, anti Benjamin Callam. These four were fully commived to Leieester jail, for trial, by Dr. Staunton, on Wednesday. The other man has yet escaped; his name is Hickman. They all resided in the pariah of Botteaford. A few days since, t woman named Prior, residing near the Water-side, in Ely, left her infant (about 2 months old) upon the bed; and soon after hearing it scream violently, she ran up to it, when she found that it had been attacked by a rat. who had bitten the child on the forehead, in two or three places, and like Wise one of its fingers. LAUNCH OP THE LtNCASTER OF SIXTY Gums.---The launch of the fine vessel above named, took place l ist Friday evening about six o'clock. A little before six o'clock, Mrs. limes (the lady of the present worthy Might Sheriff of Devon), was introduced by Commissioner Shield to christen the vessel, and almost immediately after the performance of that ceremony, the Lancaster glided from her slip towards the harbour, and in lcs than half a minute embraced her native element in Hamoaze. She is a remarkably fine fri gate, mounts 60 guns, has a flash deck, a beautiful round stern, and an animated bust at her head. She has been built upon the same glan, anti has much the appearance of the Portland. lately lannelied at this port. We sincerely hope, and we have not the least doubt, that if ever " Jona than" should be so foolish as again to go war with us, the Lancaster will give his huge frigates the dressing they too long wanted in the late war, in consequence of our not then having any fit class of vessels to combat them. If ever she shoal.) come alongside any of Jon ithan's crack frigates, let her be but well manued with British seamen, and then stand clear, Master Yankee, say we.—(Plyerauth Journal.) As an instance of the active exertions which are now making to enforce the law against the emigration of Arti sans, we have to state that an officer arrived in Bristol, a few days ago, having travelled post haste from Dumbar tonshire, with a warrant for the apprehension of a man, who had come here for the purpose of embarking for America. In order to have his warrant backed, the officer waited npon one of our local Magistrates, who, being taken by surprise, demurred to the application, and was immediately threatened with a mandamus. After some deliberation, however, the %warrant was backed, and the man secitred. To be compelled to return to Scotland, under any circumstances, is not the only hardship in this case, for the unfortunate artisan having engaged him self to work in this city, at a rate of wages which satisfied his expectations, had, at the time of his arrest, giving up the idea of going to America.—(Bristol Mercury-4 SPOR'f 'NU INT ELLItiENCE.

Ln consequence of theists and protracted state of the harvest, the Earls of Hardwick. and De la Warr, Mr. Pynr, Mr.,Wor them, and several other gentlemen in the neighbourhood of Royston and on the western side of the county, have agreed-to postpone the opening of the shooting season till the 15th of September; a determination which, we understand, is highly satisfactory to the farmers in that part of the country. Many of the principal landed proprietors in other districts of the county have also agreed to a similar resolution, and which is likely to be adopted in most places. ACCIDENT IN FIUNTING.—We are sorry to say that one of the sons of Earl Forteacue met with a severe fall on Friday last, on Exmoor Forest, near Symondsbath, when in full clip , . of a slag, and was taken up, quite senseless, by Mr. LUC49,the Master of the Hunt.—(Terinton Courier.) WEEKLY REGISTER OF THE WEATHER. Of this week the greatest portion has been highly favour able to the harvest. On Sunday morning, indeed, St. tirriehin appeared reluctant to resign his dominion ,• bet after sums heavy rein, a material change was indicated in the atmosphere, and the latter part of the day was very fine. Early on Monday morning the wind shifted from the south-west, from which it had blown for many weeks, to the Eastern quarter, and the atmosphere was fuggy and warm; and as the day advanced the wind returned to the South-west, but with a clear and bril , ilat sky, and the solar rays were more potierful than on any pre ceding day this year. Between 1 and 2 o'clock, p. 01. our ther mometer exposed to the sun, was at 110 degrees ; that in the shade was 75, just the same height to which It had risen on the 13th instant ; but there was a striking difference in the tempe rature of the latter parts of the two days. Oa the 13th, In the afternoon, the thermometer began to sink rapidly, whereas 03 Monday last it continued at the same point till nearly sunset. Tuesday was as complete a contrast to Monday as could hie imagined ; a dreary day, and rainy most part of the forenoon. On the coasts of Kent and Sussex, and in parts of Norfolt: and Suffolk, the rain that day was accompanied with vioint storms of thunder and lightning; but the thunder did not ex tend far either northward or westward.

Having been a few weeks in the hospital, her mind beettine quite composed and rather cheerful's:she occupied herself its walking, reading, and needle-work—was perfectly amenable to all the rules of the establishment, attended family prayer, ma le her wants and wishes understood by signs and writing, to those who had charge of her, and was repeatedly the wiliest of communication between her fellow-patients and the stile:in tendants. She continued in this state- (except that she occa sionally uttered the word " no," which she used as a term of assent as well as dissent) until the t Otit of December when, in the act of walking throuch one of the galleries, she felt a sudden shock, accompanied by an extraordinary noise in her ears, like the report of a pistol, that greatly alarmed her, and she found that her power of utterance was suddenly re stored, when her exclamations of joy. surprise and gratitude, were equally solvated, natural and affecting. Her health anl faculties being now re-established, she was discharged from the hospital, on the 23d of December, and proceeded to her friends to the country, where she still continues perfectly well..
