Both it having been seconded, were put from the chair, when the num:;7rs appeared in favour of the original motion, which was conseque,-.`tly declared to be carried. . . Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the tt., ,, ctieS separated. About seventy gentlemen sere present. The attention of the commercial interest has to-day (Mon day) been directed principally to the condition of the Liverpool houses who have memorialised the Chancellor of the Exchequer for assistance, and whose application has been supported by a memorial in recommendation of their claims from the Man chester Chamber of Commerce. The deputation from these two important towns had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer • during the morning, when the Right Hon. Gentleman expressed his opinion that the circumstauces of the case were not such as to require or justify any interference on the part of his Majesty's Government, and recommended the deputation to apply to the Bank of Englsnd, by whom aid would probably be rendered if adequate grounds could be made ap parent. In consequence of this an interview subsequently took place between the deputation and the Governor, Deputy-- Governor, and some of the Directors of the Bank. This meeting has not led to anything definitive. It was intl. mated to the deputation that a regular application from them, accompanied by the necessary explanations, would be atten tively and fully considered by the general body of Directors ; but it is right, at the same time, to say that the gentle men who conducted the conference on the part of the Bank of England did not hold out to the Liverpool deputation any en couragement to expect that their application would eventually be successful. The general feeling, we believe, is, that the ap plication of the Liverpool merchants is of a character some what too general, and implies the necessity of relief in resnect to the depression of too great a variety of articles of commerce, to have any chance of success in its pre sent form. There is, besides, considerable, we ought ra ther to say, perhaps, insuperable, difficulty, in entertaining an application for assistance, when the cause of the existing pressure, as in the present instance, is merely an unfavourable fluctuation of price. If, to mention a single article, for example, there were a stagnation in the trade in cotton, arising from a suspension of the manufacturing processes at Man chester, from whatever cause this Suspension arose, there would be a case more or less clear for artificial and unusual aid. But while the mills at Manchester keep at work— while the Liverpool Cotton Market presents weekly a con siderable amount of sales—while it is thus shown that the evil has not assumed the character of stagnation, great and reasonable doubts are entertained of the pro priety of interference, more particularly as the capital of the merchants and bankers of Liverpool is not sup posed to be insufficient to carry that important part of the great commercial community of Great Britain through its present difficulties, without any other than those individual and isolated cases of bankruptcy which may be traced to the excessive speculations of the individual sufferers. There is little doubt that the market for raw cotton must for a consi derable period be languid, and the prices low. The stocks are heavy, and an unusual quantity is held on speculation. The state of our commercial relations with America will ne cessarily suspend or diminish for some time the exportation of manufactured goods to that country. .The same obser vation applies to the East Indies and China, the trade with the latter having been greatly deranged in con sequence of the senseless and improvident abstraction by the Chancellor of the Exchequer of a million of money from the capital of the merchants engaged in that trade for the premature payment of duties on the lower de scriptions of tea. But it may reasonably be expected, and in deed some symptoms of this healing counteraction have already presented themselves, that in proportion as the prices of our staple commodities are reduced by the diminution of American and Oriental commerce, a greater impulse will be given to do mestic consumption and to our export trade with the nations of continental Europe. Upon the whole the impression un questionably is, that, so far as the Liverpool application is con cerned, it will be the wisest course to leave existing evils to that remedy which, although not the quickest, is often the surest in respect to commercial as to physical diseases—the curative process which, in the very nature of things, is con stantly at work. It is stated in letters from Manchester that the leading houses at that place had been purchasing somewhat largely from the Liverpool importers of cotton, particularly those en gaged in the manufacture of twist, many of whom have a great command of capital, and are supposed to be laying in their stocks, under an impression that the raw material suitable for their purposes cannot be produced at lower rates. Notwithstanding the strength of this class of purchasers, and the probability that their operations may have the effect of raising prices, it appears that many of the ma nufacturers who bad goods on hand adapted to the spring trade in London have, within the last week, submitted to a sacrifice of about fifteen per cent. on their accumu lated stock. For colonial account a still heavier re duction in price has been necessary, in order to get off a de scription of goods appropriate only to certain markets, such, for instance, as those of the Isle of France and other settle ments in the Indian seas. It seems to he expected that as the New York houses, who have hitherto been almost o.le exclu sive shippers of cotton, will be severely crippled through the great depression of the markets in Europe that the merchants and capitalists of this country will endeavour to establish a direct trade for the future with the Southern States of Ame rica, where investments may apparently be ;made on infinitely better terms, than under tae present intermediate system Morning Post.

A meeting of the electors of Westminster was held last night at the British Coffee-house, Cockspur-street, to take into consideration two letters which had recently been received from Colonel Evans and Sir Francis Burdett, in answer to a communication made to them, informing them of the resolu tions with regard to their conduct,, which were passed at a public meeting held at the same place on the 22d ult. Mr. GILBERT POUNCET was unanimously called on to pre side. After the minutes of the previous meeting had been confirmed, he proceeded to read the letters, which were as follow _ _ _ JAMES R.

" GENTLEMEN—+I beg leave to acknowledge your letter of the 9th instant, received two days since, conveying to me a col ,y of resolutions adopted at a meeting assembled for the purpose of considering the present state of the representation of Wostroinster, and I must frankly admit that, so far as the fist resolution relates to me, I cannot but cordially concur in the opinion to be inferred from it, acknowledging at the same time the considerate manner in which it is expressed. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST I.NDIA STOCK. • LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, ITAVING the honour of being recommended te you by the Directors of the East India Company as CAN DIDATES for the DIRECTION, to be chosen this year, we take the liberty of requesting the favour of your Vote on the day of Election, Wxn:ixsniir,the 12th April next.

" In reply to the inquiry to be made as to the probable time of my resuming my Parliamentary duties in your service, I beg leave to assure you that my absence cannot now be prolonged beyond a very short time, and, at the utmost, not beyond the 10th of June as that is the final period of the service of the, auxiliaries in this country, by the King's order in council, and by engagement with the Spanish Government. " I have now only to assure you that at my departure from England I sanguinely anticipated my returning at a much earlier period, and that I had not the least expectation of so uninterrupted a delay as bas occurred. " I fully admit the principle that my two appointments are incompatible ; but I persuade myself, and it is the extenuation I rely on, that the electors have thus far extended their kind ness to me, not expecting, no more than I did myself, that the period would have been so prolonged, and in consideration of the fact of my being engaged in a cause interesting to all Europe, during which I have not ceased to use my utmost exertions, and at some personal risk, to carry out the principles to which we are both attached—those of representative Go vernment—the great and distinguishing feature between free dom and despotism.

" DEAR MR. POUNCEY—I am satisfied no one can be more aware than you are of the impropriety and unfairness towards the bulk of the Westminster electors which I should be guilty of, were I to act towards them in the manner proposed by the gentlemen who met at the British Coffee-house, and who re quested you to transmit to me the resolution they adopted, expressing their wish that I should resign my seat in Parlia ment as representative of the city of Westminster; at the same time, I am not in a situation to enter more fully into the subject ; I shall, therefore, content myself for the present with answering that I do not think it consistent with my duty to the electors at large so to act; but so soon as I am able to held a pen myself, I shall probably think it my duty to address them upon the subject of your communication. In the mean time, notwithstanding any difference of opinion between us, " Believe me, with great respect and sincerity, dear Mr. Pouncey, yours sincerely, " F. BURDETT." The CHAIRMAN having read the letters, proceeded' to re mark on that of Sir Francis Burdett. The opinions of the Hon. Baronet were wholly at variance with the opinions of the electors of Westminster, although at one period they had been identical. In the early and more brilliant part of his career, Sir Francis was the staunch and able advocate of Re form, extending his advocacy so far as to support annual Par liaments and universal suffrage. Look at him now. He was leagued with the party he had formerly denounced, and had turned his back upon all his former opinions; and upon every ground he was bound to give the electots of Westminster an opportunity of deciding whether ,they had changed with him. The meeting would not indulge in any railing or per sonality against the Hon., Baronet—his (Mr. Pounecy's) opinion still was, that Sir Francis was even now a sincere friend of his country, and that the errors into which he had fallen were errors not of the heart, but of the head. He had always hitherto been a warm supporter of Sir Francis Burdett, because he had believed him to be the uncompromising advo cate of Liberal opinions. Believing now that he was exactly the reverse, he should at every future election oppose him as strenuously as he had before supported him.—( Hear.) An ELECTOR said that there was one phrase in the letter of C:eneral Evans which did not appear to him sufficiently clear. Were the electors to understand that, under any circum stances, they might expect the return of the Hon. and Gallant Member at the period stated by him, namely, the 10th of June ? The CHAIRMAN, at the request of the meeting, read the letter again, when the elector expressed himself satisfied that General Evans promised unconditionally to return on the 10th of June. _ THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE.

ELLss was requested to move the first resolution, to the effect that in consequence of the two letters received from their representatives in reply to communications made to them, it would be advisable to call a general meeting to take the same into consideration, in order that the electors at large might have an opportunity of expressing their sentiments upon them. He ( Mr. Ellis) believed that they would be justified in calling a general meeting. He for one was very much dis satisfied with the conduct of Sir Francis Burdett. His name was once bright in the page of contemporary history.- Sorry was he to see that a sun once so bright should set in such dark ness. The conduct of Sir Francis Burdett had placed the electors of Westminster in a dilemma, and himself in a dis honourable position. Whatever influence had been exercised upon the mind of Sir Francis to bring about such a result, the electors of Westminster had . no right to suffer, and he was bound, as a gentleman and a man of honour, to give every elector an opportunity of recalling the vote which he had given in his favour, and of bestowing it upon a wor thier representative. With regard to Colonel Evans, he — ( Mr. Ellis) would only say, that he had the highest opinion The Dublin Eve nin g Post of Saturda y says " every of him.—( Hear, and cheers.)

An alarming and destructive accident, involving the lives of a number of people, took place a short time ago in the house of a collier at Donnington Wood, near Wellington, in this county. It is the custom of the colliers in that part of the country to store considerable quantities of gunpowder in their out-houses, to be used in blasting in the pits ; and a young woman named Bayley was sent to bring away five pounds from a heap of upwards of thirty pounds for immediate use. The poor girl having put the powder into a bag, went to the kitchen fire to warm herself, and had no sooner placed her foot on the fender, than the powder-bag burst in her hands-,the powder exploded—and communicating with the heap in the out-house, the whole building was blown to pieces, Mary and Jaue Bayley killed on the spot, and Jane Davies so shockingly scorched, that she died en Friday.— Shrewsbury chronicle. On Wednesday, a young woman named Astin, had one of her arms broken, in two places, at Mr. Baldwin's mill, near Bailey Hall, in this town, through getting entangled with the machinery. A man named Thomas Crossley, had one of his fingers cut off by a throw, at which he was working, on Tuesday, at Mr. Farrar's machine shop, Square-read, in this town.—Halifax Express.

Coalville, in the parish of Ibstock, by Mr. George Da venport, who has munificently endowed it with 1,0001. and contributed 100/. towards the erection.—Salopian Journal. We arc informed that seven signatures were obtained, the other day, to petition Pro-Church-rate,—or rather to a blank sheet without a heading, by the party saying that its object was to prevent the guardians of the poor taking possession of the pews in the parish church ! When will men take the pre caution to read petitions, before they affix their names? —Ha lifax Express. CAPTAIN CHAMIER'S NEW NAVAL NOVEL. Just ready, in 3 vols. post Byo., T HE ARE THUS A.
