.SPIRIT OF THE. Punrac JOURNALS. Nothing within our recollection has ever been more pcoroking or disgraced than the conduct of tie officer commanding his Majesty's ship Xdrth Star, who, being charged with tit ;ii--ten sive correspondence from Rio Janeiro to Eng land., detained the letters at Portsmouth for 48 boars after his vessel arrived, quite heedless, ap parently, of the serious lots, nay ruin, which sue!' a violation of his trust might entail upon a num ber of anxious merchants in this tobntry. How far the officer thus offendieg would be punish able in his pocket by ah action at the suit of the suffering or disappointed parties, we shall not express an opinion, although, possibly, we may have farmed a strong one. It is ceitam that the master of a merchant-vessel would not be per mitted to escape untouched. The letter-bag d not, indeed, contain " treasure," in that sense which renders the conveyance of the pre-- cious metals so abundantly profitable to captain of the royal navy who transport them; but to the merchants it may have been treasure of the most valuable and indispensable description: the letters, so blamably withheld from the right ful owners, may, and doubtless did, enclose re-- mittances in the shape of bills, or other vouchers and representatives of actual prope r ty, th e de tention of which is at all times most grievous to those who look for them as the means of discharging their own engagements, and most embarrassing to the free and natural course of commerce. If the law does net teach this gentleman a lesson, we trust that the Admiralty Times. Among all the accounts received, or said to be received, from Poland, Germany, or the seat of war itself, we have not seen anything to in validate, or in the slight es t d egree t o a lt er , t h e view.which we have from the beginning taken of the occurrences at and near Kovlertscha, so 0)- viously garbled and discoloured by the pen of the Russian General. It is plain, from every thing which has yet appeared, that, except the relief of Pravadi, no -other object of the invading force has been fulfilled by the march from Silis tria south.:rards. It was strange, and indeed unpardcnable, that the Grand Vizier should have suffered himself to be turned ; it was even marvellous, that he should have allowed his enemy to occupy the direct road to Slimla be- Lind him ; but having been taken in the rear, surprised, and almost surrounded, it t-howed nearly incredible courage, and no common mea sure of skill in the Turkish army, to have escaped utter annihilation. The boast of Count Die bitsch, that he would on the 12th of June march with his entire army for Marasch, distant only rett or a dozen miles—the direct acknowledg ment that his - troops did not actually attempt that operation ; and the tacit confession two days afterwards, that not one Russian or Cossack soldier had then succeeded in reaching Marasch, gives ample contradiction to the averments of both the first and second bulletin, that the Turks were reduced to a disorderly and unresisting rabble. Had such been the state of the Turkish army, nay had it not been in an efficient and formidable capa city of self defence—what prevented Count Die bitsch from getting before the Vizier to Shumla, since he says that he had what we know to be the direct road in his undisturbed possession ? What, again, prevented him from traversing a distance of less than twelve miles in eight-and-forty hours if there was no enemy,—and a stout and un broken enemy,—to obstruct him ? Count Die bitsch doubtless wishes that the Turks, as Na poleon and his officers wished formerly that the stupid English, knew enough of war to be sen sible when they were beaten, instead of going on to split so many warlike Russian and Gallic skulls, when they ought, by every rule of military etiquette, to have laid domi their arms and •sur rendered. For our parts, we desire only that the Turkish chiefs should attend a little better to their flanks and rear, and now and then take the trouble to write us a good long matter-of-. fact bulletin.—lbid. The Civic Body, as it would seem from the late partial exposure of their accounts, out of their enormous revenue are not at all niggardly in the part which '.'ney bestow upon themselves. The Lord M . „yor, the Chamberlain, the Re corder, CP., - mmon Sergeant, Remembrancer, and the crzvvd of other official persons, too numerous to :nention, all experience the truth of that ex eellent maxim, that « the labourer is worthy of his hire." We would nct be supposed to urge a word against so excellent a precept ; and even though the reward may, in some instances, over pay the labour, yet that we should deem to be an error on the right side, and far preferable, especially in the case of a public body, to that narrow parsimony which often unnerves and neu tralizes even an anxious willingness to serve.— But then, on the other hand, where services are amply rewarded, and the retaining fee sufficient to bespeak the whole of a man's time, those in whose behalf the labour is expected, should at least see their expectations fulfilled, and, above all, no delay of essential service take place. Amongthe rest, we think it must be admitted that the City Law Officers are pretty well paid—not over paid probably, if the duties are done for which they are appointed ; yet such, it would appear, is the want of method and arrangement among those whose business it is to regulate those mat ters, that the most grievous delays of justice continually take place, from the Recorder, or some one else, being expected to be in two places at once ; or, as the instance we allude to, being expected to hold the Sessions at Guild hall and in the Borough on one and the same day. We wonder whether the civic body ever appoint two dinners to be eaten on the same day—a swan-hopping set-to, for instance, at Maidenhead, and a white-bait affair at Green wich. We augur better of their economy of dinner-time ; only we do not see why law-time might not be under as judicious regulation and division. Perhaps it may be inconvenient to some of the worthy Aldermen to be called upon to bestow their time in making Courts. But those who can so well employ their afternoons should not grudge their mornings ; remember ing, as they are bound to do, another axiom from the same book which we have already quoted, viz. that " those who will not work, neither shall they eat."—Morning Herald. We have copied into another column an article from the Dublin Evening Post, in which an invitation is thrown out to independent Vicars or Curates, to devote themselves to the cause of the sufferers from the abuses of the Establish ment, with the certainty that the Protestant public would, to a man, be with any Curate with a small independence and of an irreproachabl e life. 'l'he same Paper charges us with not being sufficiently alive to the abuses of the Protestant Church, or at least not sufficiently sanguine as to the possibility of a reform. We are, perhaps, in the wrong. We ought never to despair of the good cause. The country papers, we observe, 'oftett parts of our Establishment. There is very able article in the last numb'e'r of the Kent Herald, which_ w' fthart postpone to a future day. o.g.tr Dublin Contemporary attributes the (c:Ortimencement of the Second Reformation in England to the Bishop of Lincoln.

The following article appeared in a late im pression of the Courier of last night, and we have heard it whispered that it emanates from a high quarter :- 4( An attempt is now making, by those who have hitherto dealt to falsehoods of the most daring ) and calumnies of the darkest character, to represent them selves as victims to principle, because they are called upon to justify the truth of their assertions in the open Courts of their country, or to bear the penalty due to convicted guilt. But as they failed to per , vert the judgment, so they will not succeed in posing on the compassion of the public: They cry out at the approach of danger like bullies Who think themselves undetected still, and seek, by a mixture of complaint and menace, to conceal or protect their cowardice. But their cry is without power, for it is without justice. They say that they are visited for their political offences; but the call made upon them is no visitation, either political, or even legal. It is not a thunderbolt hurled on defenceless heads, striking at once to the ground, and leaving no time or strength for the victim to ward off s allti'i~iate, or return the blow. It is a fair demand that they shall stand forth to their own word as men ; and that they shall prove to a British Jury, with every assistance which the law and the best abilities at the Bar can give them, that the charges which have been made of corrupt dispensations of patronage are true, or that, as they assert, they do not apply to the Lord Chancellor of England. Is there any thing vindictive, any thing political, in this ? Nay, is it net a step which they themselves have forced upon that high individual ? Was he alone of all men to have no protection, because he was invested with functions of such importance that they require a character not only free from accusti tion, but above suspicion itself? Was he to be de barred the remedy open to all his fellow-men, un shackled by similar duties ? Had he, indeed, adopt ed a different course, a course ordinary and perfectly legitimate, but which prevents the proof of a charge from acting as a justification of it, there would be some plausibility for these daily misrepresentations and complainings. But now there is none, and this very circumstance adds to their rage. Had they no opportunity to prove their charges, they would have had the consolation, after conviction, of assert ing that, f allowed, they could have proved them. This consolation, slender as it is, they see, is now denied them. They feel that they have no proofs whatever to adduce in answer to the manly call made upon them. They know that no Jury, com posed of men in their senses, will doubt for one mo ment the application of the calumny; and their re sentment against their intended victim derives double bitterness from the despairing conviction, that by the charitableness and liberality of his course he has brought them to, in their case, the most fatal of all tests—the test of truth." We have ourselves abstained hitherto from any remarks on the prosecution, from a persua sion that while a cause is pending before a tri bunal which involves no general principle, it is hardly consistent with propriety to interfere with it. As, however, the appeal on one side to a different tribunal from the legal one has pro duced a corresponding appeal on the other, we have thus departed from our resolution, by no ticing the circumstance. Having, however, given the case on one side, we shall give that of the other in the Morning Journal of this day : " In the case of the Atlas, Messrs. Whiting and Swift, the printers and proprietors of the Atlas, are not prosecuted, on the ground that they were not parties to the insertion of the libel. In our case Mr. Gutch is made criminally responsible, although he was more than a hundred miles from London, and confined to a sick bed, at the time the obnoxious paragraph appeared. The Noble and Learned Lord, and his candid and liberal advisers, pounce upon him, although they know that be had no more to do with the authorship or publication of the article, than the Emperor of China. They let Messrs. Whiting and Swift escape, who either knew what was published, or who, residing on the spot, ought to have known what was published; and they fas ten on Mr. Gutch, who it was impossible could have been a party to its insertion! " This proceeding requires no comment. This is a specimen of the justice dealt out to us by the Lord High Chancellor of England ! This is the way in which a Supreme Judge of the land pursues his imaginary calumniators ! This is modern libe ' rality ! This a sample of the Chancery clemency of Lord Lyndhurst ! That Mr. Whiting may be a personal friend of Lord Lvndhurst's may be true; hut why Mr. Whiting should escape, and . Mr. Gutch should be brought to trial, is an anomaly which we should like to hear explained by a special , pleader. " But it is a mere farce to attribute the proceed ing to personal feelings. The prosecution is insti tuted by the Government—perhaps by Mr. Peel— but it is in substance a Government prosecution. It is an official visitation upon us for the part we took on the Catholic question. We are marked out as the first victims of the late opposition to the apostate Bill. We are selected as a sin-offering to offended dignity—as the organ of Protestant opi nions—as the defenders of that Constitution which corrupt and dishonest men sacrificed on the altar of expediency. " And why is Mr. Gutch thus marked ? Because he took a prominent part in the proceedings at Bristol. ` Because he was true to his principles, and large 'portion of our public men to be mercenary and characterless, aimed a fatal blow at our liberties, and signed the death-warrant of the Constitution of 1688. For this reason Mr. Whiting escapes under a contemptible apology, end Mr. Guth is prose , cuted destlite an honourable, and a satis i'aciOrY explanation. " Gentlemen of England, who are not yet slaves ! is this insidious justice to be countenanced or pa tronised by you ? Is there to be poison given to one man and ass's milk to another i , under the pre text of administering even-lihnded Jtistit'e tO all is it. not plain thAt,this iS a kruel, a personal, and a prosecution ? Is it not clear that we are chosen to bear the punishment of your acts—of your opinions—of your spirited and honest struggles in defence of the Constitution ? It is not a ques'; tion between A and B; ht'w the latter may havF spoken unfavourably of the former. It is a prosecution set on foot to crush your favoured organ—punish the men who fought faithfully, man fully, and consistently on your side; and not only to intimidate, but, if possible, send to a gird those who asserted their rights agabist mercenaries at period of great exciteitiiit i Wittin all t've deeiiied host valuable was voted away contrary to his Ma jesty's instructions. " We make this appeal to our Protestant friends. On so trying an occasion we solicit their support. We ask no favour that is not dne to our services and our principles 1 but, as this is an insidious and vindictive attack upon us, we think we have some claim upon their friendship and their collective sup , port. Of the issue we are not aftaid, because there are still a few honest Protestant Jtirymen in Lon don; but the. tithes look murltythere are traitors in every street—spies in every house, and corrupt jobbers around every table; therefore we say to our friends "watch and wake I" It has bean observed that Lord Eldon, during his long judicial career, remained patient under repeated attacks. Whether these attacks would have been construed into libels by Juries, is more than we can well say q hecanse, as has been observed, every thing is a libel which a Jury tail be persuaded to declare one. We have no doubt that many of the articles written against Lord Eldon gave him considerable pain. But they were either strictures on his mode of discharging his public duty ) dr alltisidiis to real dr supposed weaknesses. In all times a good deal of lati tude has, by courtesy rather than by law, been allowed to writers and caricaturists respecting public characters. Mr. Pitt's indifference to the fair seX and attachment to the bottle were the subject of many an epigram, The parsi , mony and love of tattle of the late I(ing form the burde►► of many a page in Peter Pindar. In like manner, many a colu►nn has been devoted to the hospitality of Lord Eldon. But there is an evident distinction between alluding to the Weakness or foibles which cling to public as well as private individuals, and charging them with substantive crimes or offences. We leave untouched the. question whether the Lord Chancellor was or was not the petson affe alluded to. But if he were the personage, he is, in that case, charged with what amounts td a posiiive crime of a high order. The selling Church livings is also an offence, which, if proved, would at once lay the foundation for depriving him of the Seals, These are not Weaknesses, or infirmities, or errors in judgment, but delinquencies. It may be very true that ru mours of all sorts were in circulation with respect to his Lordship, We can form a conjecture too whence these rumours emanated. But spoken slander is privileged, while written is not. When we say spoken slander is privileged, we mean merely to say, that except some person is present who takes such an interest in the charac- ter slandered as to be willing to become evidence at the hazard of being deemed a tale-bearer, it can never be proved. We have heard it said that a certain personage, the precise degree of whose elevation we shall not venture to specify, has boasted that he can run down, if he chooses, any character in a month. But verba seripta mancnt. There is no escape for the writer.— Morally speaking, he is not more guilty than the speaker, but lie has not the same facilities for escape. The school-boy who is caught robbing an orchard is often the least guilty, because the youngest ; but he suffers, because he is least able to effect his escape. The Standard of last night observes— " Mr. Moore, in one of the Intercepted Letters, charges Lord Ellenborough, in direct terms, with horsewhipping His Lady within an inch of her life,' —we mean the late Lord. This was an intrusion into private life—certainly not warranted by good taste—hut did it in the slightest degree impair the reputation of the late Lord Chief Justice, though imputing a brutality so base and unmanly ? No; not one living being believes it. But who will say, that the same story whispered with a sufficient in. dustry would not have obtained credit ? But the libels of which Lord Eldon was the object—the libels charging him with avarice, with hard-hearted ness to suitors, with mean pursuit of unlawful fees, with partiality in bringing causes to a termination, nay, with even dipping his hand into the money de posited in his Court; these libels would freight a navy, as we have said. Lord Eldon never prosecuted them. During his long public life, tide after tide of libels has rolled and roared against him, but rolling and roaring only to dissipate themselves,—and there he still stands —erect, spotless, unmoved, like the eternal cliffs of his own loved England." As to the case of the late Lord Ellenborough, we do not recollect it at present ; but with re spect to Lord Eldon, we do not remember his ever having been charged with dipping his hand into the money deposited in his Court, or taking unlawful fees. We have heard him again and again charged with loading his own family with sinecures ; and his resistance of all reform in his Court, while there was, during his whole career, a heavy arrear of business, was construed into an indifference for the sufferings of suitors. But, if these are to be libels, all strictures on the con duct of public men are at an end. The enemies of Lord Eldon charge him with pertinacity in error ; the enemies of Lord Lyndhurst charge him with too great facility of conviction. Ob stinacy and apostacy are the dyslogistic, while consistency and openness to conviction are the eulogistic expressions which are used by turns, as the speakers are enemies or friends. —lbid. We beg to refer our readers to our Worship street Police Report, for another sample of the shameful conduct which is daily pursued towards the Licensed Victuallers of the metropolis, by informers and their agents. They first tempt the former, as they avow, to the commission of a breach of the law, and then turn round upon them, in order to riot on the spoils of their conviction ! Information, in fact, has now become a trade—by and by, if some people had their , way, it might chance to be ex alted into a profession ; but surely nothing can be more truly degrading, more utterly base and unprincipled, than the system which is now pursued, of first appealing to the sympathy of the Victualler, and then converting that sym pathy into his ruin ! We say ruin, because a third conviction is fatal to obtain a licence ! though, by that glorious inconsistency which so pecu liarly distinguishes English from all other laws, an informer may pursue his vocation during every hour of the Sabbath, and every day of the _. t_ V.-1A Manic tratcs, in the cot referred to, could have acted with more propriety than those of Wor ship-street : but we regret to perceive that they differed on one point which has already been neqiiatty then the thne whidt is to be held as the time of Divine Service. the Worship-street Magistrates decided it to be the usual time during which Divine Service is per formed in the metropolis ; but the time varying greatly ; as was proved in this particular instance, Anti As is universally tinutti in different parishes, it has been decided by good authority, and on good grounds; that the time during which Divine Service continues to be performed in the partiettlat ptirM, is to be held as the tithe during which the Legislature intended that the houses of Licensed Victuallers should not be open for public accommodation. We trust, therefore, that the Worship-street Magistrates will re-consider their decision, and that when a similar case tomes before them, they will decide aceortibig . tii tht , standard established by their brethren, instead of fixing oil one too variable to be useful, and too liable to be abused by perjury, not to be most injurious to the Li censed Victualler.—Morning Adver:ivr.. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OP CHANCERY, .ILLY S. JACKSON 2 3 . HAN kAY. This was an appeal from a decision of the Master of the 'Wills when Vice-Chancellor, by which he had dismissed the bill filed in this cause. It appeared that a settlement had been made on the marriage of Mr. Saville, by Mich a sum of Bank stock had been settled on the husband and wife for their joint lives, and on the death of the wife the divi(lends and prin cipal were to go to the children of the marriage. Mr. Saville, who was a man of considerable wealth, bad continued to receive the dividends after the death of his wife and after hi 3 children came of age. In the course of his He, certain family arrangements had been made, in which his right to do so was not disputed, and the general result of those arrange ments had been much more advantageous to the children than the receipt of the dividends to which they were entitled. After his death a bill had been filed against the trustees of the settlement, for an account of the dividends which they had permitted the husband to receive. Their defence to this was, that the persons entitled had sanctioned such receipt by concurring in the arrangements made by the late Mr. Saville, and that after such concurrence they could not maintain their present demand. Besides this, the trustees flied a cross bill. Counsel were heard on both sides, and The LORD CHANCELLOR postponed his judgment. ROLLS' COURT, JULY 3. IN RI 811F.PPARD ' s CHARITY.

The plaintiff was second mate in a ship engaged in the South Sea whale fishery, the defendant was the owner and consignee : the present proceeding ori ginated in a dispute relative to the distribution of the produce of the cargo. It appeared that the defendant was entitled to one-fourth of the adventure, the re mainder being divided in certain proportions among the crew, &c. The plaintiff, as second mate, was to receive one-sixtieth share for his services. The MASTER of the ROLLS, in giving judgment, observed that the crew (and among them the plain tiff) had agreed to accept the estimate, made in the usual manner of dealing in the trade, as the mea sure of their respective shares, and it vas now too late fin• any of them to complain. The bill must therefore be dismissed, and w►th costs. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JULY 3. MARSH AND ANOTHER v. WOOD AND ANOTHER. This case came before the Court upon demurrer.

EX I'AR'TE .----. Mr. FOLLETT moved for a rule to show cause why an attorney of the name of William Berry should not be struck off the roll of the court, or why he should not answer the matters of the affidavits. The Learned Counsel stated that a person residing in Devonshire had died in 1826, leaving three daughters, who became entitled to his property. Mr. Berry, professing great regard for the daughters, applied to them to allow him to manage their affairs. It ap peared that their father being indebted to a creditor in a sum of 401. had deposited some of his title deeds as a security. The father was also indebted to other persons, and his property was under incnm brances. For the purpose of discharging those in• cumbrances, Mr. Berry advised the ladies to endea your to get the title-deeds out of the hands of the creditor, and sell the property. The ladies acceded to this suggestion, and Mr. Berry got possession of the title-deeds on an undertaking to the creditor that the daughters should execute a bond. The bond was accordingly prepared and executed, and the property was sold. The ladies subsequently applied to Mr. Berry for his account, and he then made out a bill of costs amounting to 106/., and in his account made himself debtor for 861. He, however, took credit for a sum of 81/. for which some of the title-deeds had been deposited, as if he had actually paid that sum out of the proceeds of the property, but on in quiry it was discovered that instead of paying it, he had given his promissory note for the amount, and on the note becoming due he bud not paid it. Pro ceedings were instituted against Mr. Berry, and a judgment obtained. Mr. Berry, however, had not paid the money, nor had he paid over the money for which the estate had been seld. _ _ The COURT thought that they could only call upon the party to show cause why he should not pay over the sum for which he had taken credit in his account and not paid. The Learned Counsel, after pressing unsuccessfully to have the 861. in cluded, took the rule. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY 3. SYMONDS V. HODSON. This case came before the Court upon a demurrer to the pleadings. It was an action on a policy of insurance on a ship called the Clarence, of Bristol. The vessel, on her voyage from St. Petersburgh to London, struck on some rocks off the coast of Sweden, and put into Elsinore to repair. To enable him to pay for the repairs, the Captain borrowed money of the plaintiff, secured by bond on the bottom of the ship, but to be paid within eight days after his (the Captain's) arrival in England, whether the vessel arrived or not. The plaintiff insured his in terest in the vessel with the defendant; and the ship was afterwards lost at sea.—Demurrer allowed.

LONDON MARKETS. (From the L011(103 New Price Current of yesterday.) SUGAR.-The demand for Sugar has rather increaacti this week ; the purchases are estimated at 2,700 hhils. and tat. ; the prices are rather lower, and the strong Re fining deScriptietta, whir+ have lately rated so high, and have been firm, are alas bought on lower terms, which has induced the Refiners to take considerable parcels. This afternoon there was mere firmness and considerable buyers, both of West India and Foreign Sugars for export. There is little or no variation in Refined Goods; the scarcity of lumps continues, but there is also a very limited demand. The purchasea of fine goods for home consumption are in considerable. Molasses dull, and the offers are generally at lower prices. EAtiT INDIA SUCAR.S.--The Mauritius at public sale this week have gone off with more firmness, anti at higher prices. FOREIGN SUGAR.-The sales of Foreign Sugars con sist of about 690 or 700 chests yellow Havanna!), good colour, 31s. a 325. ; 100 chests old Bahia, brown to yel low, 225. for the other qualities, and for Brazil Sugar, there are inquiries, but no sales. This day at public sale 820 chests Brazil Sugar, all taken hi, white 325. a 375. ordinary brown 225. Wan PaovisioNs.—The only alteration in Irish Pro visions is that Butters are offered on rather lower terms. SALTPETRE.—A public sale of 1,821 bags Saltpetre was attempted on Tuesday ; the Whole taken in 235. od. a 245. 6d. Hors.—The accounts from the Hop Plantations are that the Hops are getting black. The estimated duty from 55,0001. has dropped to 50,0001. The priCez of Hops are 35., to sa. per cwt. higher; the former has been obtained. INDIGO.-The quantity of Indigo declared or appiied for is 5,800 chests, anti it is expected to be increased a little, making the sale, as nearly as possible, 6,000 chests. The market is rather more firm ; the sales lately are about 200 chests, chiefly for export, and they rate nearly at the last India House sale prices. COFFEE.--The public sales of Coffee this week have gone off at steady prices, but without animation; the ship pers have been the principal buyers, both of Jamaica and Daminica Coffee; the fine qualities of Dutch for home consumption have sold very high ; the low qualities are dull, and rather lower; 35 bags Havannah, good ord. 85s. a 355. 6d. ; 200 bags good to fine ord. Brazil 355. 6d. a 365. 6d. By public sale this day 471 casks 512 bags British Plantation, chiefly Demerara and Beibice, 100 bags Brazil, 77 bags East India ; the Jamaica sold at full prices, particularly the fine, which sold 765. and 775. ; a great proportion of the Dutch Coffee was taken in; low ord.

NEW ORLFANS, MAY 9.—There has been a fair busi ness done since cur list, and principally during the fore part of the week, at near former quotations, which are continued. The principal operations were confined to Tenessee and North Alabama. That front the interior and Alissis,ippi is becoming scarce. Using the Liverpool classification, we quote, viz.:—Ordinary, 8 to Si cts. fair demand ; middling, Si a 9 eta, do. ; fair, 94 a 9/ cts. do. ; good fair, 10 a 101 eta. do. ; good and fine, 11 a 111 eta. do. The stock on band of all descriptions, in first hands, is comparatively less than many are aware of. Cilmtr.v.sToN, Mar 25.—1 n the early part of the week there were some sales of Sea Minds at old rates, but, towards the clos, the market was languid. In Maine anti Santee a moderate business continued through the week at prices the same as at our last. The stock of Long Staple Cotten is decreasing. Some Sea Islands have been ►hipped on planters' account, and there has been a fair demand: for Alaine and Santee for northern manufacturers. We quote Sea I.•lands 12 a 24 ; Maine and Santee 17 a 19. In Uplands there was only a moderate demand through the week, and prices remain about the same as our last- We continue to quote 7 a 9, for inferior to common prime, and 10 a 10,i fur choice parcels, fancy brands its square bales. In the latter quality the soles were not nu merous, though it is in good demansl, such being scarce. The principal sales were at 8 a 81 for inferior to raid dliug lots. TRUE-BLUE CLUB DINNER. (Abridged from the Chelmsford Chronicle.) Time annual meeting of the members of this Club took place at the Blue Boar Inn, in Mahlon, on Wednesday last ; [high Dick, Eq., one of the Re presentatives of the borough in Parliament, took. the Chair. Among the gentlemen present were Quintin Dick, Esq. M.P.; Sir John Tyrell, Bart.; Sit G. 11. Smyth ' Bart.; Colonel. Tyrell and a Kerstemn the Reverends Matthew Forster, Forteseue, &e. About sixty gentlemen sat down to an excellent dinner. After several toasts and speeches, Sir JOHN TYREE'. proposed the health of Mr. Bramston. For the first time within our memory, was the name of Mr. Bramston received with disrespect. However, on this occasion, hisses, groans, and other marks of disapprobation, followed. The voice of the Vice. President, Mr. Join Strutt Hance, was heard above all others. He called upon the meeting not to drink the toast, and gave as a reason that Mr. Bramston had sent his two sons to Oxford, to vote for Mr. Peel. This clamour continued some time, and called up Sir John Tyrell, who was desirous of answering the charge against his friend, Mr. Brams" ton, but he was pointedly opposed, and not in the most courteous language, by the Vice• President• who quoted the proverb of " one fool makes many;' which, fortunately perhaps for that gentleman, dol t not so operate in the present case, or the war et words had been changed to a war of blows. At last,. Mr. BRAMSTON rose, and after several efforts , . obtained a hearing. In a clear and perspicuotlo speech of considerable length, which we regret We . have not at present the means of giving our readers Mr. Bramston, justified his own conduct, as well as that of his Majesty's Ministers, by referring to the history of this country from the period of 0 0 revolution in 1658, to the present time, and pat' titularly to the unsettled state of Ireland. To re' store tranquillity to that country, Ministers felt the policy of conceding the point they had done, and which had already produced the most beneficia l consequences—that of putting down, without blood' shed, the Catholic Association and the collecting of the Catholic rents, both which threatened to be' come obstacles to the peace and happiness of the United Kingdom. Mr. Bramston said, that he Woet sorry to hear such harsh names applied to.parties opposite opinions—the one party were denominate° " rats, apostates, and knaves ;" whilst the other party were called " fools and bigots :" he disaP' proved of the application of such appellations to either side. Sir HENRY SMYTIt spoke with considerable warmth in reply. He pledged himself, that at th e next election, if a vacancy occurred in the repre' sentation of the county, he would not support Mr' Bramston. On the contrary, he would hunt the country for a candidate to oppose him, and in the event of his not being successful, he would do a° himself. Sir Henry shortly after left the room. Mr. BRAMSTON declared that it would not g ive him one moment's uneasiness whether he went t° the House of Commons or not. He was, as he ever would be, a firm supporter of a Protestan t Constitution. Some confusion again showed itself in oppositio n to Mr. Bramston, but it was suppressed by O. Chair. Shortly after Mr. Bramston left the r ecall' The meeting dispersed at an early hour.
