NO TIME TO LOSE. RIK THIRTY THOUSAND POUND PUIZES NEXT TUESDAY WEEK, WHEN ALL LOTTERIES k:NO FOR EVER. ------ T:ls BRlTtill PRESS commenced publishing on Saturday MOIL. ing at live o'clock. LONDON, NIONIMI T , JULY 10, 1826. We have received the French Papers of Friday and the Fv.ile, dated Saturday, but their contents are of little int pot :ance. The German Papers have arrivill in flue course. We extract the folloning relative to the wool trade:- I..}:trsto, Juxa 28. The wool trade is now very brisk here. There are days when: lad, nay even 200 cwt. arc sold and weighed at the weigh-house. The pt ices have risen but little since the fair; the quantity of wool exported is very large ; it all goe. to England, and provesthat tie stock of middling wool must be much reduced in that country, as the lalpaig wool merchants du not sin(' any to London for their own a mount. Flocks of tine-woo:led Snort sheep continue to be sent 'to Colombia. On the other hand, the Government should now reli te in our country the Peruvian Vieunhas, as the improvement of wool ought not indeed to cease among us. but requires the tern • Petition of another useful article. Our King was a benefactor of it, country in his youth, by encouraging the breed of the improved Saxon Merinos; let him in his old age give us a perpetual memo. sod of his reign, in the introduction of die animal which produces toe Vigogna wool, and the cultivation of silk, which according to the ust recent observation, requires cleanliness and cool air much more than a hot climate. . We are sorry to observe that the accounts from the ma nufacturing districts holil c'it no prospects of speedy re lid to the distress which still continues to exist in that quarter. The popular commotions, against which we lately warned those country gentlemen who still adhere to the rrstricti►e system in the corn trade, seem almost on the point of breaking out with fresh vehemence. The Brad •'ird Courier states that the presence of the military had again been deemed necessary at Blackburn, and that te nons apprehensions of mischief were entertained there. Syn p ,ms of disturbance are also said to have manifested themselves at Addiugham, though it was believed that nothing serious had ensued in that quarter. By our ex tracts from the Dfanchc.vh•r Guardian, under the head Manchester, it will be seen that the Riot Act was read, in eonsequence of the partial assemblages of the people In the Market-place, at Blackburn, on Tuesday ; which had, however, the effect of causing the immediate tlisper- Atm of the crowd. Delegates are said to he traversing the •tountrY, in order to excite the people to hold meetings, and was reported that one such meeting was to take place •,a Monday last, at Ifambleton, a hill near Accrington ; it did not take place. The civil aril military authori taw are on the alert for the prevention of all such assem- Wages, and additional troops arc on their way to these .iistricts. We have no &alb., however, of the correctness of the asser►ion, that the suff. ri::gs labouring popula tion and the incitement, of designing nom we old ultimately produce a dreadful explosion, wiles; some prompt measures were taken to prevent it. We 0101114 c rtainly concur with the writer in the Manchester Guardian, in lainsntirg the 'us of lives and dreadful consequences which must result from any conflict between the starving people and the mili tary, and we agree that it would be infinitely better to pre vent it by some decisive measures for alleviating the exist ing distress, which is undoubtedly of a description " which La considerate person can reflect upon without the utmost anxiety." The subscriptions afford at hest but a tempinary relief, and, such as it is, it already begins to fail. The ad dational circumstance of the drought, which threatens the 111011 L destructive consequences to the cm ape, renders the situation of the country at this moment still more embar rassing. It is asserted, in the Leeds Mercury, that "two fields of barley, between Doncaster and Sheffield, were sold last weep, as they stand, fur one guinea an acre." The same Paper states, that "a meeting of workmen from If udderdield and the neighbouring •illages was held at Almonilbury Bank, on the evening of Monday last, when it was determined to present a requisition to Mr. B. CLAY, the constable, to call a public meeting on an early day, for the purpose of considering the beat means to be adopted to prevent the starvation of the unemployed poor." There can he little doubt, then, from all these concur ring circumstances, that the ease which had been foreseen by Ministers, when they obtained the Parliamentary sane tScin to their plan of introducing foreign corn, has now actually occurred, and to a most alarming extent. The Manehester Guardian suggests the application of a sum of money from the revenue to the relief of the distress of the manufacturing districts ; but this would be like the private subscriptions—a mere measure of temporary utility. Besides, it is not by money that their distress can be relieved, but by bread. We can, therefore, see no method which can be of any service under these circumstances, but that on which Ministers have already begun to act—the introduction of foreign corn, in order to diminish the price of bread. There is one symptom of the case to which even this measure will not afford relief—the want of employment, which would render it impossible for the poor to obtain food, however cheap ; but even to this the revision of the Corn Laws would afford an effectual remedy, and that in three different ways -Ist, by opening a new branch of trade ; 21, by enabling foreign countries, which are too poor to give any thing but their corn for the purchase of our commodities, to take our manufactures in exchange for their a4rieultural produce; and 3d, by diminishing the expense of subsistence to the labourers. and enabling the masters to contend in point of cheapness more effectually with foreign countries. The repeal of the Corn Laws, like many other means of relief, would undoubtedly require time before it would come into full operation, as far as regards an increase of employment ; and therefore some other method of immediate relief would probably be required in connexion with it. We stivesteil, some time back, a scheme which we think practicable for improving the p )or laws, and rendering diem less burdensome on the agriculturist. Our scheme was to induce the persons liable to poor rates to commute that tax, by appropriating a cer tain portion of land to be cultivated for mere necessaries by the poor, who would subsist, while labouring at it, on the produce of the same ground raised in former years by eviler labourers. Such a scheme would, no doubt, he liable to objections, on account of the abuses which might be in troduced into establishments of that nature ; but all these objections are doubly applicable to the poor rates as now collected, and we shall not now repeat the many advantages which would arise from the metheal proposed. With these observations we leave the subk•ct ; disavowing any wish to throw additional gloom on our circumstances, but anxious to meet the evil fully, and to spew the advocates of agri cultural monopoly what tiny have to fear. To the manu facturing population it tray be well to observe, that popular commotions are not, in their circumstances, the true course to obtain their ends. The right of resistance is a right which ought to be understood to exist, both by the people and their rulers; but it is not till persons arc reduced to a choice of deaths that such desperate measures are to be re sorted to. The case will never occur, we venture to say, while the present Government continues at the head of affairs. CITY, SATURDAY EvEartxo. There has been a further depression in the Funds to-day of nearly per cent., Consols for Account declining from 787 to 78f, without any reason being assigned for it, ex cepting the attempt made by Ministers " to raise the wind" by the sale of Exchequer Bills. Among the reports of the day has been one, that the Directors of the Bank have re fused to make any advances to Government on Exchequer Bills, urging as an excuse the impolicy of increasing the circulating medium ; and that, in consequence of this de ni• !!„: ;:overnment Brokers have orders to sell these Se cs... •-. openly. It will be seen by the annexed quotations, that Exeluquer Bills, to-day as well as yesterday, could not be obtained under as high a premium ss was given for them during the whole of the week. This is the effect of the dividends, the payment of which commenced at the Batik this morning, and has reduced the current rate of interest at the Stock Market from 4 and 5 per cent. to only e per cent. It cannot therefore be a matter of surprise that Securities are put ehas:ll which yield an interest of upwards o f 3 per cent, even with the prospect of an abundant sup ply of the same. India Bonds have been entirely neglected, and are nominally the same as they have been for some days past. There is a report in circulation of a small loan from Go vernment to the East India Company, the continuance of the Burtn:se war having occasioned an increased expendi ture. We believe there is no truth in this story, but that the East India Company has succeeded in raising, at Cal cutta, a sum sufficiently large to meet the demands upon it. It would he no di'ficult matter, even in times like the present, for the Company to increase its pecuniary re sources by the sale of :ntlia Bonds, provided the interest was raised to what it was before the general reduction in the rate of interest in this eountry. There was a slight elevation in the prices of the Funds this afternoon, when Consols for Account were again sold I st 781 for the opening , and freely at 782 for August. At (.four o'clock the market relapsed into its former state, with out, however, any extensive speculations having been en tered Into. There are some large accounts yet remaining opera, but the continuation from account to account being so easy, is some inducement to carry them on for six weeks longer. _ _ . _ . It has been stated, on the authority of private accounts from Mexico to-day, that, notwithstanding the flourishing report published as to the increase of the revenue of that State, a Nlr.)lanning hail been deputed to proceed to Eno land to raise a new loan, on the best terms he was able:fills individual, it is also said, had actually arrived at Vera Crus, •on his way hither. Mr. Manning is likewise an agent of a very respectable firm in London, formerly en gaged in the contract of the loans for Mexico and Colom bia. Whether this account is true or not, cannot yet be ascertained, but it has hail the effect of rendering all the South American Securities rather heavy to-day. All we know is, that the firm above alluded to has received no intelligence from Mr. Mantling to the effect stated, and therefore we' believe that he has received no commission to raise • any new loan in London. The report of the inability of the Mexican Government to pay the divi dends on its stock due in October, met with very little countenance, and it is not unlikely that the report respect ing the New Loan has been set afloat in order that credit may be attached to it. Mexican Bonds opened this morning rather briskly at 441 for Money and Account, but retrained flat during the whole of the afternoon, owing to the prevalence of the re port just referred to, and left off at 431,with a very gloomy appearance. The quotations of all the other Republican Bonds have undergone little variation. Colombian were sold as high as 29, but afterwards fell to 281. Bra zilian have declined I per cent. since yesterday. Northern Securities have retrograded in the same ratio as our own funds, but very few bargains have been made in them. There has been a slight demand for Brazil Shares, at an improvement of 11. on what they obtained yesterday. In the other Schemes nothing of interest has incurred. The foreign trade of London is in a deplorable state. In place of the extensive neg :tiations of foreign bills on the usual day of exchange, there was to-day only one drawer of bills, and only one house takers (that is, givers of too -1 ney fur the bills). II tring's and Itothschild's were the only firma in the negotiation with foreign countries. The amount paid as duties on the French and East In dia silk manufactuted goods is much less than was antici pated. On the first day the import was allowed (the 6th inst.) 70,0''0/.,was paid for duties ; yesterday only 10,0001., and we understand the payments this morning were incon siderable. The remains of the Earl of Chichester are to be re moved to-morrow morning, from his house, in Stratton street, Piccadilly, for interment in the family vault in Sussex.

The juniors of the metropolis had their fete at these gardens on Saturday night, the proprietors of which col lected all the attractions of the fairy scene over which they preside, to gratify the Lilliputian crowd, which it was in reality ; for, notwithstanding the weather, which was auspicious to every landholder in Surrey, excepting those who hold Vauxhall Gardens, we have seldom seen this gay place with more persons in it, and all who were there had merry faces. Masters and Misses, as a matter of course, could not fail to be delighted with the Concert and the Fantoccini, the Scotch and military bands, the rope-dancing, and the fire-works; Punch and Judy, and the illuminated Racking-Horse ; the Ballet and the Waterfalls ; and though last, not least in the catalogue of delights, the tarts and jellies at the supper tables, with a smack of the far-famed arrack, properly diluted for juvenile tastes anti constitu tions. Their darlings happy, papas and mammas could not fail to beau; and the difficulty of procuring conveyances, creating confusion as it did amongst the veteran frequenters of Vauxhall, who well knew the misery of a rainy night, with its accompaniments, wet feet and saucy hackney coachmen, increased the amusement of those who wade their debut there. The Duke of York continued going on well yesterday, when his Royal Highness was visited by the Duchess of Gloucester, the Princess Augusts, and the Princess So phia. On Saturday, Sir Herbert Taylor transacted mili tary busintsa with His Royal Highness the greater part of the morning. Soon after three o'clock the Royal Duke rode out din his open carriage and pair, 'proceeding at a slow pace from Mr. Greenwood's villa to St. James's Park, where he viewed the new building erecting for his future residence. his Royal Highness did not alight from his carriage. hut passed the building in the Park and in the Stable Yard. Ills Royal Highness, we are happy to say, is evidently looking much better. Yesterday the Princess Augusta attended divine service at the Chapel Royal, St. James's. Letters were received in London on Thursday, from Hanover, dated as late as the 30th ult., when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and the Prince and Princess, were in good health. On Saturday morning, at half past ten o'clock, the Lords of Ills Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council assem bled at the Council Office, Whitehall, to heat Plantation Appeals. The Lords present were, Lord Stowell, the Master of the Rolls, and the Right Hon. H. Elliot. The appeals were from the islands of Grenada, Jamaica, and Berbice, and from Prince Edward's Island. Mr. Hart, Mr. Adams, and several other Barristers, were heard by their Lordships in the appeals. Their Lordships sat till about half-past three o'clock. Earl Bathurst left town onWednesdayfor Stratlifieldsay, on a visit to the Duke of Wellington. Saturday the Earl of Ilrestinorland and Mr. Moritr transacted business at the Foreign Office. Lord Stowell transacted business at the Colonial Office, on Saturday. Friday evening, Mr. Littlewood, a King's messenger, was sent off from the Foreign Office with despatches to Lord I'iscount Granville, the British Ambassador at Paris. Madame Caradori and Miss Stephens are eAgaged for the grand musical festival at Gloucester, to take place the middle of September. It is incorrect that Mr. Farquhar has left only one ne phew. Ile has three, and a more immediate relative in America. _ _ _ Cobbett, in his Register, says, his right arm was go much pulled and shaken by the salutations of the people between Blackburn and Bolton, that he could not the neat morning lift it up to tie his cravat. It is now as good as certain, says a Frankfort Paper, under the head of Hanover, that the fires in various towns and villages which have broken out nearly at the same time, were the work of vagabonds. PhospLorus matches have been found among the effects of some that have been arrested. But there is reason to hope that all such wicked attempts will in future be prevented. A Royal ordinance has been issued, containing very strict and judicious regu lations and directions, respecting passports, the object of which is to prevent travellers from being subjected to un. necessary delays and formalities, and at the same time to enable the Magistrates to observe suspicious and dangerous characters. SPEECH OF Ills MAJESTY THE EMPEROR OF 1111.4Z1L, ON THE OPENING OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, MAY 6,1826. " Atwood and most worihy Representatives of the Brazilian Nation.—For the second time I have the pleasure of appearing among you to open the National Assembly. I must regret that it did not open on the day fixed by the Constitution, though the Government did every thing in its power. On the 12th of Nue. 1823. 1 dissolved the Constituent Assembly, though with regret, for reasons which are well ktiown to you. I promised at the same thee the project of a Constinition ; this was accepted, and sworn to. and is now the Brazilian Constitution which governs this Em pire. and be viruc of which this Assembly is met. The harmony which is desirable between the political Powers pervades this Con. stitution. The whole Empire is tranquil, except the Cisplatine Province. The continuation of this tranquillity, the necessity of the Constitutional system, and my desire that tie empire should be I governed by it. require that there should be such a harmony be toren the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, and between the Gimerninent and both Cliambt es, that every body may be eon tiered that revolutions do not proceed from the system, but from those pers o na who use them as a pretext to promote their own ends. I The Cisplatine alone is net tranquil, as 1 nave said, because on. I grateful men, who owe much to Brazil, have risen against it, end I ate now mullioned by the Government of Buenos Ayres, actually at war with us. The national honour requires us to support the Cisplatine province, since the integrity of the empire has been swom to. ___.... _ " The independence of Brazil was recognized by my august Father Don John VI., on the lath November last year, and after wards by Austria, England, Sweden, and France, having been long belitre recognizoti by the United States of America. " On the 24th of April thisyear, the anniversary of the embar kation of my father, King John VI., for Portugal, I reeved the unhappy and unexpected news of his death • severe grief seized my tent ; the track which I had to follow, being, when I least expected, legitimate Kirg of Portugal and Algarvea. and their do minion 4, suddenly presented itself to me. Now grief, now duty, occupied my mind; but I consider the interest of Brazil: re. member my word ; I resolve to maintain my honour. and reflect that I ought to make Portugal happy, and that it would be a dis grace not to tin no. What 111111. l he the affliction that troublvtl my twill in seeking means to make Portugal happy without injuring Brazil. and to separate them, so that they could never be ag..in united ! " icon firmed in Portugal the Regency appointed by my father; I granted an amnesty ; I gave a Consti•unon ; I ■t,diraied and ceded all the indi•puttble rights which I had to the Crown of Po iugal, and the Snvereignty of that kingdom. to my beloved daughter, the Princess Donna Maria da Gloria. now Queen of Portugal, Donna Maria 11. Some Brazilian•, hither o incredu lotta, may now know lea they ought to know already) that the in tereat of Brazil, and love for ha independence, have such weight with me, that I abdicated the :town of the Pornigum slonarcl.y, which was mine by indimputable right, merely because, in future. something might arise to prejudice the interest of Brazil, of altit.ll lam .he Per.etnal Dcfe der. " 1 oar greatest attention is called to the education of youth of tenth aeries, the finances, tie public establishments, and particu larly the enactment of rtgulatory laws, and the abolition of oilier , which are directly opprrstst to the Constitution, so that we may be s‘cirtly guided by it. The greater part of the Senator; and Depu. Vex. composing this assemh , y, most well remember the evils that some nations have stillered from want of respect to the constituted authorities, when they are attacked and vilified, instead of being accused and tritd according to the law and to universal justice. I know that these reflections are nor necen.wy in this assembly, com ported of such worthy Senators and 1/entities; but they serve to testify the real, love, and attachment, which 1 really feel for the empire of Brazil and the Constitution. I might say much more to you, hot I do not think I nerd do an. " THE CONSTITUTIONAL EMPEROR, AND PERPETUAL DEFENDER OF BRAZIL." COURT OF ASSIZE AT PARIS. DEAF AND DUMB CRIMINAL.

FIRE —A dresdful fire broke mum) Saturday night, b t: twten 11 and 12 o'clock, in the Hay-market, in the house, N 0.60, occupied by a tailor of the name of Johnson. It appears that the family were away for a few days, and had left in the house a lodger, the Cavalier Micheroux Neapolitan emigant). and a boy to attend on him. The Cavaliere was at the Opera, and the boy went out, neglect ing to put in a place of safety a candle, which was left burning in the back shop, where a gas-tube was under re pair. The gas must, somehow or o:her, have got ignited, for the whole building was in flames in an instant. The alarm was immediately given by the watchmen, several of whom collected to the spot and burst open the street door. 'A great number of engines EMI arrived, and by the active exertions of the firemen the raging clement was at last sub dued, without having damaged the adjoining houses, but after having di atroyed almost (very thing in No. 60. The contents alone of a chest of drawers in Mr. Mit:herons' bed-room, and an empty porttnanteau, were found yesterday by some of the firemen, who went in by means of a ladder, to have been preserved, though it was evident they had been long enveloped in flames Nevertheless, Mr. Micheroox lets suffered a very severe less in other proptriy, and in sonic valuable papers which were emit ely consumed. It was lucky that the ac cident hapuetied at an hour when all the neighbourhood were yet awe ke, and assistance was close at hand. The Guards on duty at the Italian Opera were instantly called to the spet, and prevented confusion. Mr. Johnson is said to be but partly insured. The audience at the Opera were thrown into great alarm, by the women in the gallery (who saw the lianas from the top windows of the house) all rushing out in a fright; and the performance was of course stopped.

PART ICULARS OF THE Fla,: AT LIVERPOOL. —I am happy to state that the book-cases of two or more of the counthig-houses have been got at and opened, and the contents found safe, or at least so far legible that they can berm! distinctly. In (me there were upwards of 300 sove reigns. I understand the estimated loss is from 70 to 80,000/. ; n ntl on which about 50,0001. was insured in the various o ffices. The heaviest sum appears to be 9,0001. in one office. The ruins of the buildings yesterday presented a melancholy yet picturesque appearance; several corners atld threatening, walls are still standing at full height, and thf. s reet% and sites of the warehouses are covered with heaps of the I:ricks and burnt balks—in one place, where goods are probably buried, to a height of twenty-five or thirty feet. It having been stated in some of the provincial papers' that Mr. Chautberlayne, the present proprietor of Netley Abbey, had it in contemplation to exclude all visitors from viewing its interesting remains, we feel ourselves perfectly competent to contradict such a report. The abbey having for many years sustained the greatest injury, which every person of taste cannot but feelingly lament, by the indis criminate admission of the public at large to this fine spt.cimen of ancient architecture, it has been conceived tec prdient to limit this privilege in future, which has been so eatitonly and grossly abused; and, as it is now enclosed within the pleasure grounds of Weston Grove, the seat of Mr. Chamberlayne, to grant permission of entrance to it to such persons only, who may be conceived likely to take an interest in the survey of such an admired object, and who would be anxious to prevent any further mischief being done to it, or at all events would he indisposed to convert it into such a scene of coarse revellinga and vulgar carousals, as has been exhibited there for a length of time, so little appropriate to the character of the edifice and its environs. In the early part of last week, a gentleman of Somerset left London, where he had been on a visit to his brother, for the purpose of returning home. On the road he wrote Ia letter to his brother, stating his intention of calling on a brother-in-law, who resides near Salisbury, and that on his arrival there he should cut his throat ! The threat was literally put in execution. The deluded man d'e.l Wednerdny, leaving a widow and eight children to deplore his untimely end.—Dreizrs Gazelle. FATAL. ACCIDENT.—On Friday, the 30th ult. two children unluckily stepped into some fresh stacked lime, in Mount. street, Manchester, by which one was so dreadfully scalded as to cause Its death In a very short time. The other child is doing well, 11114 is likely to recover.—Verdict accordingly. NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. NEWMARKET SUNDAY AFTERNOON. The July Meeting commences to-morrow, and although recent event+, have created apprehensions in many that the sport would h e prejudicially affected, we can venture to assert that as far as it depend s on the Noblemen and Gentlemen of the Jockey lub, there will not be any defalcation, as they are resolved to preserve as well to *hie as to future meetings, that character of superiority which has an long attached to them. The animation whuilt usually dim. tinguishea the Newmarket people in race weeks has visibly leavened, and this it not much to be wondered at. as they ruWeved terribl y on the late Derby race, having, with one or two exceptions, s t uc k hard and fast to the General, and barked him to win to a large amour , . The consternation produced by the information that the horse would not start, was very great, and did not tubside for tome time; but, utilike many others. they settled their beta with promp. thuds,. iheteed of cavilling about circumstances which they agreed to be unavoidable. The propriety of the decision given by th e Committee of the Jockey Club was readily allowed, particularly when the evidence taken on the oicasion way deposited in the hands I of the proper officer tor inspection. Con•iderable anxiety prevails here, as to whether his Royal Ilighneta the Duke of York, the staunch patron of the Newmarket Mertinee, will he tuffitiently recovered from his late indiapo e iti on to honour us with his presence. Nothing certain is known, but it is feared that his Royal Highness will not venture to leave town at present. Few arrivals had taken place up to the time of closing our parcel, but several servants with saddle-horses are here, and their mater are expec.ed in the course of the evening. K e believe that the lel lowing distinguished members of the Club will he here by to. morrow :—Tneir Graces the Dukes of Portland.

The Quolidienne says it was decided, in one of the lee meetings of the Council, that the Censorship should not Le re•established after the present Session.

The tread-inill has been imported into Demerara, as one of the punishments under the new regulations of Govern ment. It has spread terror through the whole colony, par ticularly as one of the first of the negroes ordered to the 1 mill was obstinate, refused to work, fell back, and was killed on the spot. The letters from Demerara are to tl:e Qtlth of May; the weather was uncommonly fine; the elev . I abundant. It is stated in letters from the country, that a representa tion hasheen sent from the manufacturers near Blackburn to Mr. Peel, relative to the number of men who will be throw❑ out of all employment in the course of the next ma or three weeks. The accounts from Burnley are equally unfavourable ; and indeed it is now apparent that, in the per sent state of trade, the hand-weavers, as they are called, must generally seek other employments, the nts chinery, particularly the power-looms, having completely F u perse ell the use of the hand-loom. We understst!d that hand-weavers are most nutnerous at Blackhutu and is I the neighbourhood of Glasgow. r •
