If the published accounts of what took place at the recent Anniversary of the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society are to be credited, there is what may be considered an open and avowed mutineer in the Ministerial ranks, and that per sonage no other than the Right Honourable John Calcraft, the Member for Wareham, and who was not long since appointed to the lucrative and honourable post of Paymaster of the Forces. On that occasion, as might naturally be expected the subject of agricultural distress formed a prin tipal topic of discussion ; for to brood over his misfortunes affords to John Bull even a relish to his wine. On the health of Mr. Calcraft having been drank, the Right Hon. Gentleman is stated to have returned thanks to the company in a long and able speech, in which, after duly acknowledging the honour done him, he pro ceeded to a review of the late Parliamentary Session, asserting th,:t " his Majesty's Minis ters, not content with their neglect of the agricul tural interests of the country, had wantonly thrown every obstacle in their power in the way of all improvement." In alluding to the Act for regulating the averages (the Duke of Welling ton's new Corn Law be it remembered), he said " it only promoted fraud and forgery," while it furnished no adequate protection to fair dealing. This, and much more in terms equally strong, must be deemed to be somewhat unaccountable language to be held by one Member of the Government relative to the measure of his colleagues and himself. If Mr. Cal. craft has been sent into the agricultural districts, as Mr. Dawson evidently was last year into Ireland, to prepare his hearers for a change, then we can understand this kind of apparent inconsistency; but if that be not so, ;hen we must consider it as we have already characterized it, as an act of open mutiny, which, we should imagine, the Duke of Wellington is one of the last now upon earth quietly to sub mit to. But then what is his Grace to do ? Mr. Calcraft is, or was, a Whig. Mr. Calcraft is, or was, a personal friend and favourite of the King. At any rate he is, we should suspect, too old and wary a politician not to know what sun shines upon him, and therefore not very likely to put either his place or his reputation in jeopardy by an after-dinner speech to the agri culturists of Lincoln. But then if Mr. Calcraft speaks advisedly in what he is here represented to have said, may we not ask him why those sentiments were reserved for a place where they could be of little or no avail ? and why, instead of arraigning the conduct of Parliament out of it, he did not raise his voice within its walls, to avert the consequences which he now deplores ? To the country at large his conduct is any thing but candid, and appears like one of those ap peals " from Philip drunk to Philip sober," which strikes at the root of any thing like con. sistency, and that confidence which the public is wont to place in the acts and sentiments of public men. If, however, it is to be looked upon—as we first described it to be—as an act of mutiny, it must of course be followed by de sertion ; for Mr. Calcraft's language, as it is re presented, is by far too unmeasured and unqua lified to admit of any but one of these alterna tives. The Duke of Wellington must either abandon his agricultural policy, or Mr. Calcraft his place.—Morning Herald. In another part of our Paper will be found an account of meetings and riotings of the Riband Weavers of Coventry. The situation of these men is, no doubt, bad enough, but that will not justify them in proceeding to acts of out rage. It appears that they formed themselves into a sort of military array, and marched from one manufactory to another, compelling the mas sters to sign a list of prices which they carried with them. Wherever they met with a refusal they proceeded to acts of open outrage, such as breaking of windows, and destroying whatever property came in their way. They do not seem to have met with any opposition on the part of the Magistracy, who had, certainly, suf ficient notice of what was likely to take place, their own town-crier having been sent round the city to announce the intention of the weavers to meet in a certain field on the day following. The meeting, under the circumstances in which it was called together, was unquestionably illegal, and it is surprising that the Magistrates did not take measures to prevent the weavers from assemblin g . At any rate, after they had assembled, they ought not to have been suffered to parade the streets of the city, compelling, by intimidation or brute force, the manufacturers to agree to terms which they dictated to them. The most strange part, however, of this very extraor dinary affair remains to be told. It appears that, after the rioters had proceeded as far as they thought proper in acts of open violence, they appointed a deputation of eight members of their body to confer with the Magistrates, who admitted them to an interview, which lasted an hour and a quarter. What took place on this occasion, between the mob authorities and those of his Majesty, is not known, as Mr. Carter, the Town Clerk, would not allow the reporter of the Coventry newspaper to be present ! ! We believe the resolution of the Committee of the House of Commons, recommending the Magi strates of the county of Warwick to have a con current jurisdiction with the Aldermen of Co ventry, has never been taken into consideration by the Legislature ; but perhaps this affair may induce the Government to bring that resolution before Parliament.—/bid. We have reason to believe that the Duke of Wellington has determined to proceed in good earnest with the settlement of Ireland. Hitherto the policy has been temporising. The Catholic Question—the barrier of the glorious Protestant Constitution of 1688—served as an apology for the indolence or want of energy of Ministers. The Duke of Wellington having succeeded in breaking through the Protestant Constitution of It is, therefore, foreign interference that is the great cause of the misery of the Irish, because it deprired the people of such checks as the state of their society from time to time would have afforded against oppression, under the influence of which they would have proceeded through the various stages of civilization. Having, by our interference with the Irish people, clone them in calculable wrong, the obligation is imposed on us of endeavouring to atone for this wrong, by using our power in favour of the people, as we will not leave them to themselves. We must see whether or not it be possible to make it the in terest of the landholders to treat the people better. It is useless to appeal to the feelings of men in such cases. What signifies quoting. Wakefield on the high rents of Tipperary, or re commending moderation in exactions from the tenants ? 'rhis would avail as much as a ser mon to the shopkeepers in London to be more moderate in their demands from their customers, or to their customers not to cheapen goods too much, when the necessities of the shopkeepers forced them to slaughtef their stock. Men will always take what they can get for land or goods, and the only security against over-exaction is competition. The English tenant will not en gage to pay more rent than will leave to him the usual 'profits after paying his expences ; and the landholder, if he would, cannot avail him self of the competition of the poor for land as a means of subsistence, because the poor-rates insure to every man a subsistence. It is neces sity, therefore, that makes the English landlord a good landlord, just as it is the freedom from that necessity that makes the Irish landlord an un feeling oppressor. We must operate on the in terests of the Irish landowners if we would do any thing in behalf of their tenants. A Poor's Rate, as we have observed, would - make it the interest of the landholders to guard against the multiplication of human beings which at present gives them the power of unlimited exaction of rent. But many measures are besides necessary. We understand, on what we deem good autho rity, that one measure on which the Duke of Wellington places considerable reliance, is the strengthening the police of Ireland, and com posing it exclusively of Englishmen and Scotch men, free from all local partialities and conn ec tions. By filling the ranks of the police with Englishmen and Scotchmen, the Magistracy and Squireens, who are almost all inveterate jobbers, will be freed from one motive for exag gerating the disturbances, in order to obtain offices for their connections and dependents.— Again, it is intended that the expellee of the police force should fall on the district call ing for it, so that the landholders who drive their dependants, through desperation, to lawless combinations and outrages, shall be made to feel the consequences of their purses. Without you touch the purse in this country you can do nothing. By thus depriving the land holders of the military, and making them pay fbr good order, they will have an interest in ex erting themselves to preserve it ; and gentlemen of good property, who withdraw themselves front the odium of enforcing order, while they enjoy all the benefit of disorder, will find themselves touched as well as the Squireens at home. We have confidence in the energy of the Duke of Wellington, and the plain good sense for which he is distinguished. More is expected from him than from any of his predecessors, and we do not believe that he will disappoint expectation. He must not turn his hand from the plough.-- Morning Chronicle. In the months of June and July last various meetings of the workmen, principally employed on fancy goods, took place at Almondhury, (which town forms the centre of the persona employed in that trade) : at which meetings several resolutions were passed, expressive of the deplorable situation of the weavers, spinners, and others engaged in that manufacture; and calling upon their masters, and all others who might feel interested ou their ac count, to assist them, if possible, in obtaining some alleviation of their miseries. In consequence of repeated entreaties, the prin cipal masters met a deputation at the Rose arid Crown Inn, Huddersfield, on Tuesday, the 21st of July last ; and after a patient hearing of the unex ampled sufferings then detailed, it was unanimously agreed that an inquiry into their state should take place, under the management of the Committee of the operatives, and the several parish officers and other respectable neighbours who might feel dis posed to assist the undertaking. The meeting of the masters and the deputation of the operatives was adjourned, from time to time, until the returns were completed ; and, after careful examination, it appears, that in the several town ships mostly occupied in the fancy business, there are upwards of thirteen thousand individuals who have riot more than twopence halfpenny each per day to live upon, and find wear and tear for looms, &c. Whatever he the cause of such distress, it is feared, that the agonizing condition of families so circumstanced cannot long be endured. The diffi culty of obtaining relief by the ordinary course, and the aggravating circumstances of attending ap plications for it, have a powerful tendency to drive the applicants ultimately to desperation. In laying these painful statements before the Re presentatives of Government, and other influential gentlemen, the master manufacturers wish to do it respectfully ;—impelled by a sense of duty which they owe to the Government and the public, and especially to their wo r k men , w ho have hitherto borne their sufferings with extreme patience, it would be highly satisfactory to the employers if they could, by any means, either fully employ their work men, or give them higher wages; as many of the masters are well awar e th a t lib era l wa ges, if they could be given, would be on e o f th e fi r st stimulants to an improvement in trade; for it would enable the operatives to become purchasers of both tlothing and better food, and thereby assist the landed as well as the trading interest. The master manufacturers regret extremely that the consequences of lowering wages is so little un derstood ;—as the proper remuneration of labour is the main spring of all operations in trades; and the lower that wages are made the less will be the cir culation of the country; consequently, returns arid profits will be lessened in proportion. The parties engaged in this inquiry would be grateful if any gentleman, or number of gentlemen, will point out any mode of relief which can be effi caciously applied, to the extent necessary for the immediate wants of the workmen ; that they may have a reasonable prospect of meeting the approach of winter with some degree of comfort, and not be hurried by despair to acts of insubordination. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Price Current of yesterday.) SUGAR.-The demand for Muscovado; this week has been steady and considerable, but the purchases arc not on an extensive scale; the prices are without variation. The estimated purchases are 2,700 hhds. and tcs. In the Refine., Market the scarcity of low and mid. export goods continues, and the low lumps to be ready in two or three weeks are still contracted for at nearly the present cur rency ; the Market prices are a shade higher. Fine goods for the home trade are not in great request; Molasses steady. The demand for low and middling goods continues this afternoon, the prices of Lumps 6d. to Is. higher, and a brisk Market.

In Jamaica very few pur chases are lately reported. Brandy is still improving, both in demand and in prices..—Geneva is unvaried. The latest accounts from France give a disastrous ac count of the vintage, and state a rise in Brandies; several of the letters desire that the Brandy laying in Eng land, should not be sold under an advance of 4d. to 6d. per gallon, and several are prohibited from selling on any terms. The purchases within the last two weeks here, are about 500 to 600 puncheons; the best marks sell off the quay, at 3s. 3d. and 3s. 4d. ; seconds 2s. 6d. to 2s. 9d. ; Bourdeaux, 2s. ld. ; the advance is 3d. to 4d. on the best marks, and 2d. per gallon on the inferior descriptions.

The bullock fair was about an average one : good fresh barreners, in consequence of the abundance of grass, sold heavily, at good prices; but all others were a complete drug. The horse fair produced some good cart horses, and a considerable number were disposed of, at about twenty-five per cent. under last year's prices ; inferior ones were wholly unsaleable. On the whole, with the exception of ewes, the fair may be con sidered a miserable one for the seller. Mallon fair, on Monday and Tuesday last, produced a larger show of stock than was witnessed on any former occasion ; but the depressed state of agriculture rendered money very scarce, and those who possessed it were extremely cautious in laying it out. The Scotch and Welch beasts which were sold, met with a reduction of full fifteen per cent. compared with the prices at Harlow Bush fair ; but the flock-masters would not comply with the like reduction, consequently but little business was done by them. Very good ewes might have been purchased at from 28s. to 345. per head ; wethers from 30s. to 335. and many lambs were sold at from 1 59. to 20s. each.— Horses were so great a drug, that they might have been obtained at any price.

The barracks of Fethard are undergoing repair, previous to detachments of infantry and cavalry taking up their quarters acre. It is said also that the police force will be increased in that town. YARMOUTII, SEPT. 18. The prompt and humane exertions afforded by Captain Travers, of his Majesty's ship Rose, on the North American station, towards the relief of two vesAels in distress, have received the following encomiums " We cannot help applauding the generous and . magnanimous conduct of the commander of the Bri tish sloop of war Rose, who was anchored off this • port, at the time the Vermont came through the Narrows. No sooner was she discovered to be in a crippled state, and in need of help, than . several boats were sent from the Rose, filled with men, who with the greatest alacrity assisted in clearing the wreck, and in warping•her up opposite the wharfs, and it is with great pleasure we publish the following : card Captain Shepard, of the brig Teritiont, of Newhaven, Connecticut, returns his - most sincere thanks to E. Travers, Esq., command' - - ing the British sloop of war Rose, for his prompt ness in rendering assistance while in a distressed • situation, and to the officers and crew who aided in bringing his vessel into port.'

We take great pleasure in recording that the Ad-, • • miralty have conferred the rank of Post Captain on the gallant Commander of his Majesty's ship Rose, whose services to his country justly entitled this deserving and distinguished officer to his promotion.

THE SHIP JANE, OF BELFAST. The following statement respecting the perilous situation of the Jane, which sailed from Belfast, was sworn to by the passengers, and published in the Quebec papers:— " They sailed from the Loch of Belfast on the 6th of June, in said ship, commanded by Mr. Alexander M'Lean. Nothing particular occurred during the passage; order and regularity was maintained on board. Sounded on the (hand Bank of Newfound land on the 7th of July, 1829, and on the evening of the 13th of July, being enveloped with fog, a strict look-out was ordered by the ,Captain, and soundings regularly tried ; for the second mate an nounced he thought he heard the noise of breakers a-head. This, in a few minutes, proved to be the case, when the Captain instantly hauled his wind, but the lightness of the breeze rendered it ineffectual. Our Captain sounded in 25 fathoms; the vessel, in spite of every exertion, continued to drive towards the rocks. lie let go his best bower anchor and chain cable, but still continuing to drive, he let go the small bower. The jolly boat, by the mate arid some of the crew, with the consent of the Captains • was lowered down, when he, the said mate, and six of the crew, pulled off under pretence of trying soundings round the ship. Being no appearance of their return, about midnight the passengers became anxiously alarmed, and, along with the crew left be hind, insisted upon the Captain to hoist the long boat out to endeavour to effect a landing for them, with which solicitation he reluctantly complied, the anchors appearing to hold at that time. Fifty. four , of the passengers, with two sailors, went ill the boat, and did effect a safe landing o n the coast of Newfoundland, about six miles distant from the ship. At noon a light air of wind appeared to blow from the land, when the jolly boat and crew appeared, came on board, a nd commenced immediately to warp her off the rocks' • which were then within one mile and a half cable length of the ship. About half an hour after, the long boat came back to the ship, having landed the passengers all safely on an inhabited spot. On the same evening about three, one of the shore boa t ! came off, with a boat and four men, and a passenge r ' named Patrick (Taw. The said boat returned, after , being about an hour on board. The long boat e'el despatched at five p.m. with two passengers, a" two sailors, to bring all the passengers on board wil t :, were willing to come, as be wou ld em b race t h e fire" opportunity of getting her clear of the breaken k j The long boat was not long away when the wile' began to blow right a-head. All the anchors, fee t in number, were cast, but the breeze, along with th e current, made them not hold securely. " At ten p.m. the mate, and seven of the cre°' perceiving their perilous situation, slipped into the jolly-boat, without acquainting the Captain, and alto' gether without his knowledge, and absconded the vessel, leaving only two sailors to assist the Captain in this perilous situation. vessel " A b w o a u s t m t s a v k o i o'clockng rapid on progressW ed Wednesday r Captain, left almost without a sailor, strenuous l y exerted himself, encouraged and roused every Pas' senger who could do any thing; but we, being en d the morning, ro e t !Cs 'e , dragging all her anchors with her.

The sails having caught the breeze, in abou t half an hour he had her nearly clear off.
