On Thursday last a party of the Directors of the Ayr and Calder Navigation proceeded in one of their boats. suitably fitted up for the purpose, from Ferrybridge. where their new canal joins the river Aire, along the whole line, into the docks at Opole ; this being the first vessel which has made the voyage. They found the whole of the works in such a state of forwardness as to *arrant the 'expectation that the country will have the use of its great facilities ere the setting in of winter. This magnificent work is nearly 18 miles in length, has seven feet depth of water, and is 8:1 feet wide on the surface ; it is crowned by sixteen stone bridges of elegant ;construction, and eight cast-iron swivel bridges, and fifteen, or I more, culverts, all of solid masonry, are laid under the canal, for the purposes of draining. and also of warping the lands adjacent. At (Mole it is terminated by a large basin or dock, for the reception of river craft, 900 feet in length by LSO in breadth, which communi. rtes with another dock. for the rect whin of ships, 600 feet long by 200 ; from each of which vessels are passed by locks into an outer harbour, noo feet by 200, which communicates by two othir locks or nut-falls with the river Ouse, immediately adjoining the entrance of the Dutch Hirer. The whole of this stupendous undertaking. which has been ?seemed in the short space of three years, does equal credit to Messrs. Jolifle and Banks, the contrac ors, and to ! Mr. George Leather, of this town, engineer.—Leeds .ifercury. We hear that petitions from the several great towns in the neigh. bourhood of Leeds are already preparing, praying that government will make Goole a port fir the exportation and importation of goods—a measure absolutely essential to the rising progress of this district, more especially as all the efforts to make additional ac , commodatinn for the increasing trade of the Humber seem to be at a stand. , _ is using 4 empty extraordinary code/moat I thus with n--at every scheme, the call of " take care of read ; that fraud and extortion may be bolstered up, . . be put down, and the public be driven to jog on in a —_.— track. The adventures of the present day, we allow, are without bounds; bat, in the numberless Associations, is it not exceeding the limits of probability and truth to denounce them all ? Yet this is the tent.of the old Times,"and the slaver of the Herald; the one strikes, and the other tickles—the one uses its tomahawk, and the other its gooae's feather ; and both modestly expect to aisles at the same result, to monopolise humbug to themselves. and lead the public, as is their practice, when it suits their tarn, in mental bondage, by the nose. Considering enterprise to he the life = blood of England's great. ness, we venture some reautets on the various establishniente of the day. First, we haves fraternity of Saints, who have SAW ciated to emancipate alseery—in other words, to apatriate and put in chains their own countrymen ; the name they have assumed is demonstrative of the folly, in use no harsher to of the attempt. " The Tropical Free Labour Company." ,ire have not reed any philippics against this wild goose scheme, in the never-failing im4 oracle of wisdom, tho T nor bat the Jeered bad even its nibble at Mr. ll'ilmce,.. hierighteous den.

NOV, these said Heynan liberals have travelled out of the record of their brother specufators .• they bare provided tit the woe et, and have rese:v d from the eontibutons the ex:tenses of their plan; but, although drug and fish would be sent to the devil, and their directors broiled. at the mercy of the gentle Times, and the vapouringa of the Iltrobl, if they had de ducted one farthinp from the capital deposited, on the score of pro inning charges, these men of the people may make a contract with impunity, to receive money fat a defined purpose, mid be exone rated from its return, if the project should tura oat to be a search for a will-o'-thc..visp. On these two pious and learned Confederations, the Mentor of the World and the literary Mountebank of the day, have been silent ; they hare slept at their post, contented, if the public be gulled, that the gullets are men of indisputable pretensions to all the wisdom of the head, and the virtues of the heart. But when you come to an Equitable Bank, to save the poor from the harries of the golden halls, the necessitous from the range of lawyers and ancutoneera, it is a monstrous attack upon legitimate trade—a gross violation of vested rights; a bug and cry is raised— Parliament is warped, and the usurious interest (io a moral sense) of 20 per cent. is preserved. Next the use of Steam—this is a job ; that is a stick—the other a Wobble; as if the passage to this place were not as intelligible as to the other, and speed and r•gulanty of the utmost importance to the commercial and social world. Trade, the old Times in its cant, observed, should be unfettered—it should flow without restraint; and monopoly is a term, which makes both its Editor, and the querulous //crua, as fretful as it the porcupine. Hut ifs Company raise their head, to beat down that monopoly— to remove abuse—to check the Rate of poison, thence to preserve health, up rims the Times, and sweats that the very suggestion is a stock-jobbing trick.

He assembled his f6l- a large body of Mugs ', settled it, Chittagong, and many Arracanese, to join them. He wok, an armed force into the Chittagong district, to compel Abel remaining. Mugs to join his standard; upon which Mir British magistrate of the district, who lhad been kept in ignorance of Kingberring 's design, took precautions against it. That chief, however, soon subjected the whole pro vice of Arracan, except the capital, to which he laid seige. The Burmese Government naturally concluded that this invasion, headed by a person residing under British pro. tection, could not have taken place without our concur rence ; to obviate which impression, the magistrate of Chittagong hail promptly despatched a letter to the Rajah of Arracan, detailing the real facts; but which the mes senger, owing to the state of the country, was unable deliver. The Bengal Government, with the same view, wrote tinthe Viceroy of Pegu ; but, fearing that the 800 mese Court might suspect that this invasion was an antici pation of efforts on its part to enforce its claims (avowed in 1809) to the province of Chittagong, deemed ami :So Ma the tnoat efeetnal mode of undekeiving that and seletted the late Major (then Captain) Canning as lb' Envoy. He sailed in September 1811, and soon after a Burmese vakeel arrived at Calcutta, for the express purpose of mak ing a representation of the transactions in Arracan. Caps, Min Canning reached Rangoon on the 18th October, and was received with proper marks of attention. Both the local authorities at Rangoon, and the Coo* of Amerapoorsh, fully believed the participation of the - Aril: l tish Government in the enterprise of Kingberring. A foes, Was, however, collected by the Government of. Ava, sufflal 'tient to crush the rebel, who, deserted by most of his fol lowers, became a fugitive. It was now necessary to decide as to our course with re spect to the refugees, of which there were three classes : let, the chiefs, who excited the disturbances ; 9.1, the Mugs, who accompanied Kingberring grom Chittagong; Sd, natives of Arraca. who might retire from the opprss-1 skin of the Burmese [Coves. It was determined that the first should be kept in custody, to await the result of the communieetions with Ave ; that the second should, in the 'Sequel, be refused a residence under our protection ; and that the third should be entitled, for the present, to an l asylum in the British territories. After the dispersion of Kingberring's Airco, the Bov- 1 , mese army, not exceeding 1,000 men, approsel!ed the! southern frontrier of Chittagong ; but their Commander disavowed any intention of entering our territories. He, however, demanded that the leaders of the insurgetita should be given up. Subsequently, a message was brought from the }Walt of Arraean, intimating that if all the in surgent chiefs and fugitives, as well as Dr. M`Rac, a Bri tish.subject, alleged to have assisted Kingberring, were -cot surrendered, 80,000 Burmese troops would overrun the country ; at the same time hintiug that he was expect ing aid from France.' Our force on the frontiers at this period was extremely small. ' The first object of Government was to strengthen the posts in the menaced quarter ; and they directed the Magistrate of Chittagong, who was the medium of corn-I mumcation with the Betmese 'chiefs, to inform the latter that the Envoy at Rangoen was the proper channel of in tercourse between the two Governments. Captain Canning, after much delay, procured an order from Court, couched in gracious terms, directing the Vice roy of Pegu to forward the mission to Amerapoorah with all honour and distinction: The country was, at this pe riod, in great disorder, and overrun with banditti.. The early part of the year 1812 was spent in negotiations on the Chittagong frontier and at Tik Naaf. At the latter point, some small bodies of Burmese had crossed the river ] and entered the British territories, professedly in quest of fugitives. The Burmese chiefs, both personally and by vakcels, declared their ignorance of these violations of our terrioary ; but, on the sfeth February, a body of 600 crossed the Niel in sight of the Burmese camp, and when drivee back, fired upon our sepoys. This outrage was also disavowed by the Burmese chiefs, who threatened to behead the officer in command of the body. They, how ever, repeated their demand that the fugitive chiefs should be surrendered. A statement of these transactions was transmitted by Captain Canning from Rangoon to the court of Ava, with an intimation that some atonement or explanation was re speisite ; and with regard to the demand reiterated by the chiefs, Captain Canning had been instructed from the first, not to consent to deliver up Kingberring, or any of his ad heretics; to the fatal vengeance of the sanguinary govern ment of Ava. The Envoy and the Magistrate of Chittagong were in structed to proceed with peat caution, and to avoid, it possible, any rupture with the Burmese; taking every occasion to manifest a desire to maintain amicable relations. with the court of Ave, without compromising our honour or independence. In reporting this system of procedure, the Governor-General in Council (Lord Minto) doubted whether the forbearing disposition of the Government might not appear to the Court of Directors " to operate to a greater extent than was compatible with the rights and dignity of the relative power of the Company ;" but the situation of the Envoy, at the mercy of a barbarous court, suggested a motive for cautious policy, which the sequel will discover to be well gronnded. - In the correspondence between the functionaries on the frontiers and the chiefs of the Burmese army, the latter stated, that the only obstacle to their retreat was the refusal of the British Government to deliver up the insurgents. They affirmed that Kingberring, Larungbage (or Luting bliye), and Nakloo (or Muekloo) had killed 20,000 Arra canese ; and they required also that the natives of Arracan, who had fled with those rebels into the Company's terri tories, should be " encouraged, permitted, and ordered to return." A difference of opinion existed between the Magistrate (Mr. Pechell) and the Commander of the troops (Lieut. Col. Morgan) as to the real intentions of the Burmese; the former regarded them as hostile, and believed the vakeels to be spies ; the latter was perfectly convinced they were pacific. A subsequent repetition of outrages on the part of the Burmese is strongly confirmatory of the Magis-' trate's opinion, in which the Government concurred, and despatched a formal and impressive declaration to the chiefs upon the subject of their aggressions, and a demand that their forces should retreat. During these transactions on the frontier, events of some iropor:ance occurred at Rangoon, where the Envoy still .continued. The impression that the person of Captain ,Canning might be seized as a pledge for the delivery of the Insurgent elders, appears to have induced the Government to send two additional vessels to Rangoon. chit arrival of which excited great agitation there, and a belief that our object was to take possession of the town. The Viceroy, who had been upon friendly terms with the Envoy, wee 'influenced by the other members of the local government to adopt this opinion ; and pressed the Envoy, with p e t., severing solicitude, to send away the Malabar craltset. Captain Canning refined ; and also declined, in the exist ing state of affairs, to proceed to the capital. He, how. ever, prepared a letter to the Engy Frew, or heir apparent, containing the representations he had been instructed, to stake. The alarm continued at Rangoon, attended by ridiculous reports. Orders were issued that every house should Air cash a man armed with lance and sword, ready to appear at the door at three strokes of a gong. Repeated aPPtliase, l tiers were made to the Envoy to send away the vessel. and • Natives of Arrecan, who left the country when. it was soill. l jegatee by the Suraine.s. te• to make individual Members of Parliament acquainted with the nutritious kind, and gratitude ordains that we should not interfere r the subject.

On Sunday morning the inhabitants of Hammersmith were Llreadfully alarmed about helf-past six o'clock by a young female, fry respectable dressed, apparently about 20 years of age, being .ilse.seered by.the hostler of the Oeorge public-house, lying in the Greedway, near the wales-house, with all her clothes tied over her peal. He immediately released her Iron the situation, when he 'nand her in a d}ing state, with pan of ber tongue hit or cut off. !dhe was instantly o beeped to the workhouse, but before she could fasciae any merited massive, the poor creature breathed her last. it is surpo ed that ti e unfortunate young woman, who is a perfect manger in Hammer cnith, was on her way to Brentford, and was "etet by so lie rutfiat a, who brutally ill-used her, and robbed her of her shawl and other tninga, as co property was found upon her. l'wo pawns were seen coming from the Broadway about an hour previous tithe discovery taking place. The body lies at the work nouse to be *sued and await the Coroner's Inquest. - - --- ELEPHANT' FIGHT. lFrom a Picturesque View along the Ganges, by Lieut.-Colonel De Forest.] An elegant breakfast (says Col. F.) awaited our arrival ; after which we passed to a spacious verandah on the east side of the palace, which looked down into the area pre pared for the combat : the latter was nearly surrounded by a paling of bamboo, eighteen or twentyfeet high. Soon after we were all seated the crowd were admitted, anti pre sently filled the circumference of the theatre below us. Two very large war elephants were now brought forward from opposite sides, each preceded by its favourite female, whose presence it appears is necessary to arouse the anger of these poble animals. The conflict of this pair, however, gave little sport, one of them appearing very shy, and in terior to his opponent in strength ; they were therefore withdrawn. Another pair now advanced, led as the first. These approached with a slow and majestic step, until they caught adglimpse of each other • both then raising their trunks, and uttering a shrill and angry cry, rushed with the most tremendous impetuosity together . presenting their heads to receive the first shock. It was awfully grand. The animaLs, thus stopped in their first career, still conti nued to strive by every possible exertion of strength and art to force their adversary back, or to attack him in the flank. Their heads, however, still were firmly pressed to gether, and they alternately receded and rallied. One was of rather a smaller size than his antagonist, but be ap peared to make up for the deficiency by his greater spirit. He retreated a little for a moment, but it was only to re new die charge with increased rage: again they met; the same tremendous concussion took place, and these attacks were several times repeated, until in a last and most des perate one a tooth .of the smallest elephant was broken iii two with a loud crash. Still he was not dispirited, and would have persevered longer in the contest; but being now so decidedly inferior to his adversary, the fireworks were cast between them, which ended the combat, The noble animals kept for this sport are unfit of course for any other purpose, and are almost ungovernable to the ntahuuts. They arc fed, to bring them to this furious state, on high-seasoned food and spices, which in a manner intoxicate them, and render them furious beyond de scription. The wdiards, or cOndaintem, sit upon the elephants bucks during the contest, and too often fall victims to the mad rage of their own animal or the opposing foe. There is a large pad lace a mimes. strongly field on the animal's, back, anal covered over with *CO3rse netting of thick whits cotton rope; to this the as tut chugs, and as the elephants approach to the atta4 4 ..the ridet gradwilly recedes towards the tail, where be usually is at the moment of the shock, stimulating the already furious animal with his voice and Ow sharp gergl with which the elephant is always driven an d guided.,. t I i'4l '".% • 1:11343i len 11 to omit dapatehing firth.
