Ti 7ill b e t h e same now if the Tory organs succeed. l a 7 will awaken a spirit in Great Britain and Ire n'4 eild that will extinguish the t orc h o f bi go t ry . If th e th could sanctify the means, we would ourselves attack b a Catholi c re li g i on, knowing that such attacks would t C regard e d b y our readers as truculent, cowardly, and a.sPicable attempts to insult a brave, generous, and : I ghspirit e d people ; and that to manifest a proper th e "e of disapprobation, Englishmen could not do less t a n come f orwar d and declare themselves favourable i ° the most liber a l a d m i n i strat i on o f t h e G overnment 8 1 ' t he Sist er Ki ngdom. Perhaps, in reality, the la ndard and the Post have no other object in their v ee° flnendati ons o f a " N o P opery " cry at a moment so h er Y unpropitious for the Tory cause in Ireland. It eas snore than once occurred to us, that the Standard u not hav e p l aye d so un if orm l y i nto the hands of the Cath o li cs, without secretly designing something of e i e ki nd ; and we begin to entertain a similar impres ,o,n with re gar d to t h e Tory admonitions of the Post. 4 1 :. e . foll ow i ng extract from the leading columns of our tlie hl onabl e M orn i ng Contemporary, by way of com thnt upon an a rt i c l e w hi ch we yesterday copied from e h 4Tal niner, cannot be supposed to have been writ , Y any friend to the Protestant religion : 4 11 Tite No P o p ery ' cry i s not addressed to Papists, but b 1 pro-Papi st pretended Protestants, who in .cold t o ,o _ ,"n sacrifice the religion of the Gospel and of the i State V t eadea e who are the enemies both.

Pre suming its object to be•=-by a timely disclosure of the real sentiments of the Tory faction—to stinitilate them to shake off the yoke under *hiA they are groaning, we are tolerably certain of its success. The Catholics must see that, until they have raised themselves, as an independent religious community, to an equality with the Protestants of England and the Presbyterians of Scotland—until they have proclaimed to the world their determination never to contribute a farthing, in the shape of legal and compulsory assess ment, towards the maintenance of a religion opposed to their own—until, in fact, they extort justice from England —will the Tory bigots deride, insult, spurn, and trample upon them. Let a conviction of this salutary but obvious truth be engraven on their hearts. It is the taint of slavery that is upon them--the sin of weakness, not the errors of their creed--that provokes the hostility of the cowardly Tories. Don CARLOS is a Papist, and a murderer to boot, and yet the Post styles him a most amiable personage," and applauds the devotion with which he assists at the celebration of mass. The devout Catholicism of the Continental Princes is re peatedly lauded in the Conservative Prints ; nor, in deed, have we ever heard any objection raised against the prevalence of the Romish religion by the Tories, except in Ireland and Italy. The POPE and the Irish Catholics appear to include the only objectionable members of that body. But once free, and the name of the latter will be removed out of the list of British bugbears. We shall hear no more about the " obscenity" of Popery, than we do about the anti- Prelacy and Republicanism of the Presbytery. On the contrary, the Standard will discover that the dogmas held in common by the Churches of I , 4lgland and Rome include nearly . all that the latter holds essen tial to salvation ; and the Post will marvel at the bad taste of any reader affecting to spurn the ob servance of a religion cherished at the Courts of France, Spain, Austria, and Naples. Once freed from the tithe and ascendancy fetters, and the Irish Catholics will obtain—because in a position to com mand—the respect of Tories. To accomplish this most desirable object no measure can be adopted more efficacious than to shout " No Popery r: de nounce Irishmen as " enemies of the State and Gos pel," and denominate their religion "an obscene and sanguinary nuisance I" One of th• many good effects resulting from the dis missal of Colonel VERNER, is the light which it has incidentally been the means of throwing upon the po licy which the Tories have determined to adopt towards Ireland, should it ever be their lot to get into power. Their public organs are all loud in condemnation of the " tyranny," as they are pleased to phrase it, exercised by the Irish Government towards the " innocent" Co- lonel—the " meritorious" Magistrate, who discharges the duty of keeping the peace, by stirring up strife and hatred among the people committed to his juris diction. There is not, perhaps, in the long catalogue of Irish feuds a single one, the remembrance of which was so likely to rekindle the embers of religious discord —so well calculated to -set on fire the inflammable mate. rials which are seldom far from the surface of Irish so ciety,where the old and the new religions come into contact —and certainly not farthest at the time of a general elec tion —as the bloody and desperate encounter between the Catholics and Protestants of Armagh, known by the name of" The Battle of the Diamond." To say nothing of the blood spilt in the battle itself, its iminet. diate consequence was, as Lord MORPETH has stated, " to place that part of the country at the mercy of an ungovernable mob." Now this, with its consequences, is the conflict that a magistrate is deemed " meri torious" in commemorating, by giving it as a toast at a public dinner ! Oh, what fine scenes we should have in Ireland were she at the mercy of such men and such magistrates as this Colonel VERNER As a specimen of these scenes, we shall instance one of those to which the " battle of the Diamond" led, and in which the father of this Orange champion figured in a way that satisfactorily accounts for the at tachment of the Orangemen to the son, and the hearti ness with which the Tory Journalists on both sides of the channel plead his cause. In a letter to the Dublin Evening Post, of Saturday last, Mr. GEORGE ENSOR thus describes an outrage such as the military Magistrate of Armagh thinks it his duty to commemorate :—" On the 24th June, 1797, JAMES VERNER, Esq., WIL LIAM CLARKE, Esq., and JOSEPH ATKINSON, Ew l ., marched with their yeomanry to the house of JOHN KEEGAN, in Ballyhegan, parish of Kilmore : they demanded from him 20 stand of arms, which these ma gistrates said they heard he had in his house ; he declarrd he had no arms, and therefore could give none. On this they burned down his house. They then went to the cabin of J. M‘l vo R, in Ardress, parish of Loughgall, and burned his house ; thence to M‘NiEc E's cabin, and, on a similar answer to a similar demand, they burned his house. The two last, M'l voR and M'NIECE, would not prosecute the outrage, and they lived in the poorest dwellings. JOHN KEEGAN, being a man of substance, brought his action against JAMES VERNER, WIL LIAM CLARKS, and JOSEPH ATKINSON, the Ma gistrates, and an Armagh jury gave a verdict against them for 3721. 10s." In their defence of VERNER, the Tories betray their Irish Sivstem of Government. The " Ascend ancy" principle would be their pole star. To the Oppression of the Catholic population every other con sideration would be made subservient. Though the Con stitution has admitted the Catholics to all its privileges they would practically be, as they have ever been under Tory sway, a proscribed race ; while tranquillity ould be preserved and affection conciliated toward the Union by that truly Hanoverian and sovereign remedy, the bayonet I Happily for Ireland, and for England too, there is a hand at the helm fully able too steer the vessel. Lord MULGRAVE has discernment to see, and decision to avert, the dangers that threaten Ireland. He will set his foot upon the neck of that turbulent faction which would not hesitate to plunge Ireland into all the horrors of civil war rather than forego the pleasure of seeing the Catholics and the Protestants at bitterest and straightforward course enmity, In the manly which he •has pursued towards the firebrand magistrate of Armagh, he has given an earnest of his determine« tion to preserve Ireland from her worst enemies —.those unnatural sons whom she has fostered in her bosom, and who repay her maternal care with the blackest and most anakish inaratitude. They must, we suppose, be called Irishmen, but Ireland disowns them. They are foreigners in their feelings—in their hearts. They would disgrace any country. The whole of the Paris journals of Sunday have been received. The Government had received intelli gence of the defeat of five battalions of Carlists near Pampeluna. The rebels, after sustaining great loss, were driven back upon Echarri. By some strangc oversight no date accompanies this important an nouncement ; but it would appear from one hun dred and fifty of the wounded having been con veyed to Pampeluna on the 13th, that the engage ment took place on the 12th instant. The same despatch informed the French Government that a mis understanding had frustrated the combined movement of Brigadiers ULIBARRI and IRIARTE A breach had arisen between Übbarri and Marto, is THEN, LONDON, rtitSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1-;';17 consequence of the Government refusing to r.ttify the con ven ion of the 7th instant, which had put an and to th e distur bances in Pampeltm. firmericar4 had placed him : at the head of the troops at Llumbicr, and was pre paring to attack Estella, when Ulibarri separated from him. O'Donnell was fortifying himself at Andpaiti, and Guilielalde had heal reitalited bj tbree battalions seht from Estella.' We have no other news of any importance from Spain. Of French domestic intelligence the follow ing extract inoludes all ) save what relates tti the ek , pected general _ _ The man-of-war which was seen off Toulon on the 11th was not a frigate, but the Diadem, of 80 guns, from 13rest, which cast anchor at Toulon during the night, and had brought 200 sailors for the division. " Toe Captain of this ship," says a letter of the 12th, "has just received or d ers to put to sea again to-morrow morning, to join the squadron of Admiral Gallois at Tunis. " On the way from Brest to Tunis the Diadem did not meet _with — any man of war. The Fulton steam-boat, which was sent in search of the squadron of Admiral Lalande, arrived at Toulon this mprning from Mahon, without having fallen in with any ship belonging to the squadron. The Cbamoi Xebec is to sail to-night for Tullis. " The Tartal c steam boat has arrived from Tunis. At its departure the squadron of Admiral Lalande had not yet appeared there ; a frigate, astonished at the sight of our ships, did not venture to make any attempt, and declared that the troops it had on board were destined for the gar rison at Tripoli, which had been greatly reduced by the plague. .

Thomas Titken, an ill-looking fellow, aged 24, was con victed of stealing a silk pocket handkerchief from the per son of Mr. Pope, a solicitor, of Gray's Inn, on the 12th of the °resent month. The prisoner had been twice before convicted of picking pockets, and had not been long libe rated from the House of Correction. Samuel Kendall, a shoemaker, aged 50, was indicted with stealing on the 12th of the present month one pair of boots, value 10s. 6d., the property of Thomas Davis. From the statements of the shopman of Mr. Davis, a shoemaker on Holborn-hill, it appeared that the prisoner on the night of the 12th of September, about half-past ten o'clock, entered the shop of the prosecutor, deliberately took up the boots, and was about marching off with them, when he was stopped by the shopman. The case was clearly proved against the prisoner, who said nothing in his defence. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. . . _ Jas. Sinznwnds, aged 22, described in the calendar as a pipe -maker, was indicted with stealing, on the Bth of Au gust, a rope, value 10s., the property of Mr. Thos. Clarke, of Barking. From the evidence it appeared that the rope in question was lost from the anchor of a barge belonging to Mr. Clarke, that was ly:ng in Barking Creek ; and on the Saturday following it was sold by the prisoner to a ma rine store-dealer at Barking. The prisoner, in his defence, said that he found the rope in a stream, while he was looking for water-tresses. The Jury acquitted the prisoner. The RECORDER said that in future he hoped the prisoner would learn to distinguish between rope and water-cresses. (A laugh.) John Davis, aged 21, was convicted of stealing, on the 14th of the present month, from the person of Mr. F. Alexander Curling, a silk pocket handkerchief, value 55., his property. This prisoner had been twice in Bridewell before. Susan Whitmore, aged 22, was indicted for stealing, on the 26th of October last, a table-cloth of the value of 25.,. a flat-ir on , an d a s h eet, t h e property o f Th os . Grubb, of Garrett-lane, Wandsworth. From the evidence it ap peared that, the wife of the prosecutor carried on the busi ness of a laundress at Wandsworth, and missed the articles in question on the 26th of October last. The prisoner at that time livedin the adjoining house, and some of the pro perty was traced to a pawnbroker at Tooting ; but the person who pledged them could not be identified. Mrs. Grubb, on being recalled said, in answer to a ques tion from th e R ECORDER , th a t h av i ng susp i c i on th a t th e prisoner had committed the robbery, she had told her it would be better for her if she admitted what she bad done. The RECORDER said, in consequence of the Prosecutor's wife having acted so foolishly, he could not hear any thing more. A s there was no legal evidence against the pri soner, she must be acquitted. The Jury accordingly, under the Learned Judge's di rections, acquitted the prisoner. LIVERPOOL-SA TURDAY. LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET.

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, SEPT. 16, The demand for Cotton this week being rather limited prices are barely supported, though holders generally have refrained from pressing sales ; the decline, however, is very partial, and confined to the middle and lower qualities of American, the better classes being saleable at full prices. Brazils are in moderate demand, but full prices are obtained, particularly for the better qualities. Egyp.. tian is in limited demand, and is without change. Sea Islands are difficult of sale, and rather lower. Surats are freely offered, and are not readily saleable at previous quotations, though we make no alte ration. The public sale yesterday of 500 Sea Islands and 400 De merara was not well attended, and excited little competition. About one-half of each description found buyers; for the latter fair prices were obtained, but in Sea Islands a concession, varying from 1 4 ( 1 to Id., was submitted to, the extreme decline in the finer kinds. 1,000 American have been taken on speculation this week, and 350 American, 340 Surat, and 240 Maranham for export. d. d. 1 d. d. 280 Sea Islands 13% to 22%1 200 Deraeraras .... 7to 12i 60 Stained ditto 6 10%1 20 Peruvians ..... 0 3,290 Uplands — 8 30 Laguayras 0 _,7i 1,900 Mobile, &c. 51 8 2,520 Surats 3,860 New Orleans... 4i 8 Bengals - 510 Egyptians 9 —l3 250 Carthagenas ... 5 —si 690 Pernams, &c 9 —lO 1 Manilla 0 0 120 Bahias Maranhams —lO Barbadoes 46 `' Sawginned 91— 0 i 10 Smyrna 6l 0 We have had rather a tame market to-day, and only 2,500 bags soM at yeiterday's prices.

Roland Owen, 30, was indicted for embezzling a sum of 3/. 9s. 6d., the property of George Sexton, and another, his master. It appeared from the evidence for the prosecution that the prisoner was in the employment of the prosecutors, who are worsted manufacturers, and received from Miss Grant of Oxford-street a sum of IV. 9s. 6d., due to his employers, but only paid in 10/. The facts were clearly proved, and the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. George Slanwin was indicted for stealing a coat, value 11. 10s., the property of Joseph Cloud. The prosecutor is a Coffee-house keeper in Bishopsgate street, and the prisoner slept in his house on the night of the sth inst. After he had left the following morning the coat was missed, and the prisoner was found in the shop of Attenbury, a pawnbroker, offering it in pledge. It appeared from the c‘idence of some of the witnesses that the prisoner, who is a hair-dresser, was in great distress. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, but strongly re commended the prisoner to mercy. LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.) DEAL, SEPT. 18.—Wind W. S.

THE TWOPENNY POST.—From the Ninth Report of the Commissioners of Post-office Inquiry, which has just been made public, it appears that the total number of letters transmitted through the twopenny and three penny posts during the last year was 13,589,925 ; that the number of letters collected from each town receiving house of the Twopenny Post department was, in four weeks, 841,674. Of these there were "posted"' at Char ing-cross,lB,ll3 ; in Oxford 5treet,23,363 ; in the Strand, 29,322 ; and in Cornbill, 59,519. It appears farther that in 1835, the number of missing letters was 3,282, of which 35 were recovered ; in 1336, missing 2,358, recovered 37 ; in 1837, missing 2,882, recovered 52. Of the missing letters, no fewer than 339 were " money letters," sup posed to contain money to the amount of 6,1731., of which there was recovered 3,839/. The amount of receipts in the Twopenny Post department seems to be diminishing ; in 1826 they were 117,a01. ; in 1836 they had dwindled to 112,924/. COMMERCIAL Iti'l ELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) The arrivals of vessels at the Port of London, from east, west, rfn'th, and sout:i are very cAsiderable. Sugar arid Coffee; both f..orn the East and West Indies, are of heavy amount ; stb Oft Molasses, Rum, Cocoa, Spices, and Dye ;soods Wines, Spelter, and Tallow are in large import also; and generally speaking i,;:ere is a great variety, as well as a siVAE ttrtiottot of imports ; and they mill go tovrarths sup plying the defideney of stocks in some primacy West Indian rroduce The vessels from the liVest Indies arc rather lightly laden individually, and it requires numbers to make up the heavy accounts of our imports. There are more vessels still to arrive from the west. There is a considerable number of vessels from the Baltic and Mediterranean about to come into port. The only Foreign Mails in town to-day are French and Hamburgh. The accounts from the leading Continental markets continue to show an uninterrupted and gradual im provcrnent in every department of merchandize. In our markets there is for the most part business doing to that extent, and at those prices, which show that we arc gra dually progressing out of our recent and severe depression to our ordinary sound and prosperous condition. Less is doing in Northern produce than in that of any other quarter. MsTALs.— A large parcel of Swedish Steel has sold at 15/. - los. to 161. per ton. Spelter is receiving large sales at 131. 155. on the spot ; and Quicksilver is lively at 3s. 6d. per lb. English Iron is in good demand. INntoo.—To-day there has been a very brisk business done in East India Indigo, at an advance of 6d. to 9d. per lb. on July sales. Yesterday evening Spanish Indigo sold with spirit at public sale, at prices 6d. to 9d. per lb. higher than those of last week. The quantity sold was 700 serous. OILS.—The only variation to-day in this market is in Lin seed Oil, which is 28s. 6d. per cwt., and that is 6d. lower. Olive Gallipoli is 58/. to 601., which is 21. to 31. per ton higher than it was this day week. WooL.—The sales of Colonial Wool closed at an advance of 7 to 10 per cent. on last sales' prices, as we stated yester day. There is a good business doing in foreign Wool for ex port, and advanced prices are expected. English Wool is also brisk, and prices Id. per lb. higher. ASHES.—AII kinds of Canadian Ashes have risen Is. to 2s. per cwt. in consequence of the rise in Liverpool, arising out of the cause stated on Saturday. PITCH AND TA k. —These commodities are receiving very slender business indeed; prices firm. DTZ Woons.—Prices continue as before, but transactions are circumscribed. TALLOW.—P. Y. C. continues at 40s. 3d. per cwt. Hops.—The duty has declined to 180,0001. Davos.—This great department of business is ♦ery dull in deed, and prices low, for the most part beyond precedent. Castor Oil can scarcely be sold at any price, owing its great abundance. Argots are better in price, and brisk in demand. Rum.—There is a very brisk enquiry for this article, and prices are advancing. The RAW SUGAR, market was more quiet than it has been, in consequence of large imports yesterday. Still prices are firm, and the holelers would prefer withdrawing their Sugar to accepting lower prices; 120 hhds. of Barbadoes sold rather heavily at from 58s. 6d. to 655. 6d. for low up to fine yellow, which are previous prices. REFINED Suoaa.—Less done in this article to-day ; prices firm at 325. 6d. to 33s for fine crushed; and 745. to 755. for Lumps to pass the standard. COFFEL—The sales of British Plantation went heavily ; they (fere not rising in number, nor heavy in amount—prices without alteration. R/C8 has sold to a great extent to-day at public sale at 12s. to 12s. 6d. for middling and good white Bengal. These are firm and former prices. BENGAL SUGAR.-1,200 bags sold with spirit at from 595. to 655. 6d. and 665., according to quality. These are former quotations, and they are firm. FOREIGN COMMERCIAL. _ _ We have this morning received accounts from St. Peters burgh to the 9th instant. The sales of Tallow continue to be extensive, and amount to nearly 5,000 casks since our last ac counts. The prices ars firm, at 103 to 106 rubles per 10 poods for first quality yellow, and 110 rubles for ditto white. What business has been done is nearly all for cash, and the market wears a very firm appearance. Ship-room is still wanted, and the last-noticed high freights arc readily paid. The total arrivals at Croastadt to the 9th instant amount to 908 vessels, and the departures to 700. Vessels sailed for London since last mail were 24, and to the outports 30. A considerable quantity of Yellow Candle Tallow had been sold for delivery in August 1838, at 103 rubles per 10 poods. Large purchases of Linseed had been effected, the sales amounting to 9,000 tschetwert, at prices varying from 19 to 24 rubles, all for cash, and immediate shipment. Some sales of white flavannah Sugar, say 9,700 boxes, had also taken place, at 29 to 29i rubles per pood, duty paid, equal to 80s. to 81s. per cwt. Exchange, 10 11-16 to 10 43 64 per ruble. The accounts from Riga report the market for Seeds for crushing very steady, and considerable business doing. Flax er.joys a good and lively demand at firm prices, and the ac counts from the interior of the crop are not so favourable as those brought us with the last mail ; the plant is said to have suffered in several parts in Lithauen of rain, in consequence of which the holders at Riga were demanding higher prices. Vessels for loading timber are very much sought for, and this demand was expected to he considerably increased when the new rafts are coming down the river. The total arrivals to the Ist inst. were 916 vessels, and the departures 783. We have accounts from Odessa to the 22d August, which describe the trade of this growing port to be very flou rishing, and the shipments of grain to the Mediterranean markets lively. During the fist six months of the year there had been brought down from the interior of Russia 616,000 tschetwert of Wheat ; 106,700 Rye ; 125,400 Oats ; 43,400 Barley ; 32,200 Linseed and Hempseed. The total arrivals to the 21st August were 503 vessels, and the departures 448 vessels. Dollars were quoted 4 Rubles, 78 Kop. ; Dutch Ducats 10 Rubles, 40 Kop., to 10 Rubles 60 Kop. 6,500 tschetwerts first quality Wheat had been sold at 15 Rubles, being equal to about 425. per quarter on shipboard in London. Letters from Milan state the market for Silk brisk, and a general revival in this branch apparent in the whole upper part of Italy ; raw, organzine and Tram, were all sought after, and better prices paid ; during the month of August the exports were — To London of Raw Silk 84,000!b. Against in 1886 185,700 To Lyons of Raw Against in 1836 22,500 The reports of the Colonial markets from France and Ham burgh continue to be favourable, and business is transacted at firm prices. From the South of France the weather for the vintage is stated seasonable. The prices for Brandy rind Spirits on for ward delivery are still on the decline, and few buyers appear in the leading markets all expecting lower rates. DONCASTE It RACES. YESTERDAY.-(BY EXPRESS.)

BIRTII EXTRAORDINARY.—On Friday morn►ng last, in the St. Helen's railway carriage, a quarter of a mile from the station, a lady was delivered of a very fine little girl. It appears the lady had come over from Ireland in one of the packets that morning on a visit to a friend at St. Helen's, which perhaps may account for the unexpected appearance of the little stranger. Two gentlemen were in the carriage at the same time, but were very glad to make their escape. A post-chaise and surgeon were immediately sent for, and the mother and babe both arrived at her friend's house in perfect safety, and are doing well.—Liver pool MerctLy. . . . _ During the past week a judicial inquiry has taken place at Cheltenham relative to the state of mind of Cap tain Baker, a gentleman whose eccentricities have for some time caused much notice and observation in that town, and also in Bath. The sittings commenced on Thursday last, at the Fleece Hotel, before Dr. Edwin Maddy, Mr. J. L. Mortimer, and Mr, J. C. Stratford, Commissioners. Many witnesses, both medical and non-professional, were exa mined, whose evidence was concurrent us to the state of mind under which the unfortunate gentleman has for some time suffered ; and on Friday, after a patient investigation which occupied two days, the jury returned the following verdiet----s"rhat Captain Baker is of unsound mind, so as to be incapable of governing himself or managing his affairs, and that he has been in such state of lunacy from the 20th May last." A meeting of Reformers of the Nort hern Division of the county of Durham was on Thu! slay held at Chester le -street, N. J. Spearman, Esq., in the Chair, when the rules and regulations of the new Society, to be called the " North Durham Reform Association," were agreed to. The Earl of Durham, who has enrolled himself a member, has signified his intention of being present at the general meeting, which we have no hesitation in saying twill be ORC of the most important that has been held in the county.-- Sunderland Herald. It is intended, we hear, to hold a centenary in com memoration of the first formation of the Methodist United Society in 1739 ; and at the last Conferenca a Committee was appointed, including the Secretary and President of that body, and several of the most distinguished preachers, which will deliberate on the most suitable means of giving due effect to this resolution.—jjath journal. THE HARVi:ST. In Yorkshire, as in other places, the harvest has been retarded by the unsettled weather which has prevailed ever since Wednesday last, when the barometer fell sud denly to " much rain," but it has since r,)llied, and by a re-action almost equally rapid has altered to " change," with a continued tendency upward. Fortunately, the weather has generally been cold during the week, and neither the cut nor the standing corn has experienced any other injt;:v than that which is occasioned by delay in the harvesi opera:*s and the danger of continued bad wea ther. The prospect yesterday was cheering, and as a great deal of corn is cut round us a single week of fine seasonable weather woulci secure a large portion of Vie remainder of the corn crops in Yorkshire and the neigh bouring counties. The harvest is now general in our neighbourheod, and has proceeded during the week with only partial interrup tions. On Monday and Tuesday, shearers were in demand at the gate, and the wages given were 2s. 6d. ; on the for mer day some attempt was made to coerce the masters to give 35., but it was unsuccessful ; the interruption, however, caused the loss of a quarter of a day. Wednesday was wet throughout, and no shearing. Yesterday and to-day the weather has been very favourable, and the sickle has been in active operation ; the wages were 2s. 3d. There has been some leading during the week. The most general report of the crops is that the quality of the wheat is rather below than above an average, and much disappointment is therefore expressed. The barley also does not turn out so well as expected ; but oats are represented to be :an excel lent crop, both in quantity and quality.—Berw.ck Ad vertiser. The harvest is advancing rapidly in this neighbourhood (Falkirk). Most of the crop in the kerses is cut, and in the muirland districts a considerable portion has also been reaped. On Monlay a considerable number of shearers left the market unemployed.—Scoisman. The harvest has become general in this county. The wheat crops, in point of quantity, we fear, will be rather be low the average ; but the quality, there is every probabily, will be excellent. The weather, with trifling exceptiens, has been very favourable for the business of the season.— Durham Chronicle. _ _ _ We are happy to state that nearly the whole of the wheat harvest has been secured in the neighbourhood of Howden, in the best possible condition. The weather has been very propitious, with the exception of a few occasional showers, so that the harvest has not been much impeded in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We think the crops will approximate to a general average, except barley, which ap pears to be deficient in quantity and quality.—Doncaster Gazette. We have still too much rain for the favourable comple tion of the harvest, but yesterday and to-day the farmers have been busy at work. We were sur,pri3ed a few days since to find so many ripe fields in Nairn and Morayshire still uncut, probably arising from the difficulty of procuring shearers. In the low and early districts the shearing of barley is general ; a good deal of wheat, &bd. the early varieties of oats—the Hopeten and potato—which are chiefly cultivated here, are also cut. The difference be tween the barley and wheat harvest this year is remarked as being greater than usual. We have observed very little corn yet secured in the stack-yards. The autumn rains last year prevented the farmers from sowing so much wheat as they might otherwise have done, and accordingly there is a general deficiency. The spring wheat is sound and healthy—no smut or blight—and the ears large ; both in quantity and quality it will be an average crop.—lnver ness Courier. . The harvest has proceeded with little interruption during the past week. Reaping in the earlier districts is now well over, and a considerable quantity of stuff is secured in the barn yards. A sudden and rather severe storm of wind and rain occurred on Monday morning, by which many a stook was upset and some damage was sustained, but it lasted only for a few hours, and as the breeze continued after the rain ceased, every trace of the storm was soon effaced.—Ayr Observer. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS. LONDON. (Before Mr. MTLNE.) A case occurred in which the claimant admitted that his residence was beyond the seventh mile stone at Toot ing ; but he explained that the admeasurement was from the Standard in Cornhill, by way of London-bridge ; if the distance was measured by way of Southwark-bridge his house would be found to be within the seven miles from Guildhall. Mr. MYLNE considered the claim established, and re tained the name. (Before Mr. CRAIG.) In the parish of Allhallows there were 19 notices of ob jection, but it appeared that the overseers had not affixed the notices of such objections on the church doorx on the 3d of September, as required by the Reform Act. Mr. Trott contended that the objections could not, therefore, be entertained. Mr. Rowcroft, on the other side, maintained that the ob jector having clone all that the law required of him, ho ought not to be prevented, by any neglect of the parish ollieers, from establishing his case. Mr. CRAIG said he could not allow the objection to be gone into ; at the same time he would admit that great evils might result from such neglect on the part of overseers. Mr. llowcroft said he felt it to be his duty to give notice to the overseer that an action would be brought. against him by the objector to recover the penalty of 500/. which he had incurred by his neglect of duty. He (Mr. Row croft) pledged his professional charaetei that the action would be brought. 'File following lists were revised this day :—The Glass sellers', Haberdashers', Merchant Tailors', Tylers', Uphol sterers', Painters and Paperstainers', Farriers', Stationers', Needlemakers', and Tallow-chandlers'.

NoaTu SATURDAY.—The number of objections here is unusually he:""y• Five hundred and twelve are said to be the number, 114 of which are made in Bradford alone. The total objections in the southern division are not more than 65. DEVIZES, SATURDAY.—We have 025 objections. THIS QAY. (Before Mr. MYLNE.) The revision of the lists of Liverymen was this morning resumed, but no case of interest occurred up to tie time of our leaving. (BJore Mr. CRAIG.) The Revising Barrister this morning gave judgment in the following case, which was heard on Saturday last Messrs. Clarke and Bunbery occupied a warehouse as ribbon-manufacturers at 33, Wood-street. Mr. Clarke was a married man, and resided sometimes at Coventry, and at other times in Wood-street. It was proved that he re sided sometimes for six weeks at a time in Wood•street, for which he claimed. The Revising Barrister, on the authority of um King p. Sergeant, and the case of Andrew Brett before tl.e Milbourne Port Committee, decided that there was a suf ficient occupation, inasmuch as it was proved that the house was at all times ready for Mr. Clarke, or any part of his family. He, therefore, retained the vote on the list. The Queen's morning room at the new - p alace was originally destined for George the Fourth's bedchamber. It is hung with dove colour and gold flock paper, without moulding or cornice, and the ceiling perfectly plain. The repairs and improvements in progress at Marl borough house will not be completed until after Christmas, at which period the mansion will be furnished. 'the Bth of October has been named for the departure of the Queen Dowager for Hastings, but we believe it will be deferred until later in the month. Lord Lyndhurst has declined the invitation to a public dinner is Aberdeen, THE CELEBRATED HOT SEA WATER BATHS AT ROCHESTER.—Our readers may not be cware that the aid of Mr. Smirke, the great architect, was enlisted to give effect to this promising scheme, which has for its object to incline the valetudinarian, and those who require bathing for amusement, to avail themselves of it at an easy distance from the metropolis ; they are placed on the brinks of the Medway, and have now been com pleted about fifteen months ; and are, we pere&e, an nounced in our coluMns thi s even i ng , to be subjected to the fate of Mr. George Robins's hammer, next month. The reason for this sudden resolve, on the part of the Di rectors of the Medway Company, are so well explained in the announcement, that any efforts of ours might weaken their impression. One thing appears mangiest—that a spirited individual or "no PARTY" but " the public," may by means of a small capital, ensure a very large annual revenue from this splendid building, which is now one of the chief ornaments of " Rochester's famed City." Yesterday morning a young gentleman, named Mal lison, residing in Abingdon-street, Westminster, was bath ing in the river 'names between Battersea and Vauxhall bridges, when he got out of his depth, and being u na bl e to sw i m , s unk, and was carried away by the tide,
