Letters from Rome of the 4th inst. state, that the - Conclave was opened 'on the'3d, and that a ballot had taken place, which was not .productive of any result. We have extracted from the Herald of this morning a long reply to .one of our recent arti cles (See THE SUN of Friday last), on the West' India, Ducks, or rather on the controverted question as to the superior advantages attainable frotn competition or from regulation respectively, • • or from "a system of free trade, in preference to one of protection and restriction.The•Herald says that its opinion against the coutinuauce of the pri vileges Of the West.lnditt Dock ComPany was formed on "general grounds ;" and yet it goes on immediately to argue the question on the parti eularground furnished by the success of the Dock Company, and of the fact, of its. having uot ouly divided annually a good interest," but of its har anK also realized " a surplus of 300,0001 1" But, leaving the particular case of the West India Dock Company entirely out of consideration, let US see what the Herald says to the generalprin ciple. It roundly asserts that a system of open competition is more beneficial than one of legis lative direction. It makes this allegation in con• tradittion to a. proposition which we had laid down, which is confirmed by all experience, and which we fearlessly repeat cannot be success. fully controverted. The Editors of the Herald, however, come boldly forward and say, " We dare assert to the contrary !"—But when we lo'bb for their arguments 'and their proofs in support of their assertion, we find that they amount only to this,—" for we believe that the" legislative, management of any trading concern is the worst of all management, and we have Spain as a striking instance of the fact !"—Now, we oppose our belief to the beliqf of the Herald ; , and we adduce the example of the stupendous commercial greatness of Eng land, under her system of legislative protections and restrictions, in opposition to the contrary ex ample produced , in the state of Spain—of the real causes of whose failure, by the bye, perhaps very little is known! But, supposing that the com parative failure - of Spain is attributable to her Government, even -that fact, or any number of such facts, does not affect the principle. Because bad Government, and bad legislation, and bad or un skilful regulations, have been found practically mischievous, it by no means follows that good government, good legislation, and reise and ski ful regulations, are also to be practically mischievous, or that they are not, on the contrary, capable of producing the greatest possible advantages to - Society !—AII the hypothetical reasoning of the Herald, on this subject, is founded on the assumption that legislation is necessarily un skilful and vicious. Take away this imaginary foundation, and his whole theory vanishes !—A private concern, he tells us, is often well con. : ducted and prosperous.—Why ? Because it is welt governed, well regulated, well directed! How, then, is a state to be rendered prosperous ?•--Cer tainly by no other than the same means,—by being well governed,—well• regulated,-- cell and skilfully protected, controlled, and directed in all its parts and in all its affairs ! This is the whole principle,—the whole of t te don at Issue; and the reasoning or the Herald does not overthrow, but -support,- the .uffirma tive furnishes- an. Instruttive -probf of the fallacy of the principle of freeitosh— Every estate in that unhappy country is AprOate concern, under the management of its proprietor The results of that management of the resources of an important division of the Empire, are mani fested in the wretchednes, of the'great mass of its population.—The advocates of the free prin ciple do not seem to perceive that that principle, carried to its extent, leads them to the abso lute subversion of all law, and justice, and order, and happiness. The opposite principle, on the contrary, the further it is wises, fusels, and skil fully pursued, leads only to further and further advances in the great aim of human association, — the promotion of the security, virtue, and pros perity, of every member of the community. NEW MODE OF TEACHING LANGUAGES.---LaSt night, at the Crown and Anchor, Mr. HAMILTON repeated his experimental Lecture on his new mode of Teaching Languages. The audience, which was very respectable, paid great attention to the Lecturer, during the development of hlg method of tuition, and testified their approbation by frequent applause. It is perhaps impossible to give, briefly, a perfectly correct idea of Mr. IlAstlvroN's system; but his principle ap pears to be this,—that a foreign language can be most successfully and rapidly acquired, in the same manner as every human being acquires the language of the country in which he is brought up from infancy. The child is first taught to speak, or understand, his mother tongue, by his parents and other persons with whom he has daily intercourse,—then to read,—and, last of all, the theory, or grammar, of the language. It is at once evident, that eve n if it were possible to teach the abstract rules of the abstract theory to the infant, before it was permitted to speak and to read, such a mode of instruction would be not less ridiculous and absurd, than laborious and slow. Mr. HAMIL TON'S system, then, is founded on the natural, universal, and necessary - law, by which alone language can be acquired by any human being. By first reading and translating each of his les sons to his pupils, he first teaches them to under stand, then to read, or pronounce, and then to translate into English, the new language which he has undertaken to communicate to them; and, after they have so acquired a real, practical, and extensive knowledge of the new language, and can read, translate, and speak it, with facility, they may,' if they think proper, proceed to the study of its theory, which, however, to intelligent and in other re spects well-educated persons, will be gene rally unnecessary. We confess that we think this mode of teaching is a valuable discovery. We have ourselves examined some of Mt. Hla idlLTbN'',pupils, who have as yet on:y received two out of the first course of ten lessons. Their progress is most satisfactory, and indeed sue prleng.—After they shall have gone through the whole course of forty-right lessons, we shall be able to speak positively, from personal observa tion, as to the result.

It is not known whether the Ministers ,of the Powers of the second and third class will go to Milan. A letter from St. Petersburgh, dated Aug. says:—" We have received the following news from Odessa. 4 The Porte has made to the Greeks proposals of peace, and offered to give them the same privileges as the inhabitants of Wallachia and Moldavia,' but the Greek Go vernment has made no answer to these over tures." THE CANAL IN ST. JAMES'S. Partx.—We have, from time to time, stated from personal observa. tion the progress of the works for effectually draining and cleansing the Canal. Yesterday, the cleansing of the old piece of sewer having been completed, the mouth of the sewer was opened, and the water is now draining off to the River. The workmen are busily engaged in making channels through the accumulated mud t the east end of the Canal, so that the water may have a free passage to the sewer, the com munication with which is still almost entirely . obstructed. The steam engine, which is in tended to force out the water that cannot be drawn off by the sewer, is nearly completed. It is of six horse power.

ENGLISH OPERA House. —The very ludicrous Farie of The IVagt of Windsor was revived at this Theatre last night, and Mr. MATitEws re sumed his old part of Caleb Quillen,. It is admi rably suited to his talents, and was rendered highly entertaining 1,?, his rapidity of 'utterance, indefatigable activity, and luxuriant humour. He was warmly applauded, and gave a very divert ing variety to his two songs, which were encored, and afforded full scope for his imitative powers. PowEa in Loony Mac Troolter, an d RAYNER in John Lumpi both appeared to advantage, and Miss PovEY gave strong proofs of theatrical as well as musical improvement. The House was full. According to report, Cove n t-Gar d en Theatre is undergoing alterations likely to be as expert. sive as those which are said to be taking place at Drury-Lane, viz. MO. Is this the way to liquidate the incumbrances iu which both The atres are involved ? It would be much better for the Public if both Theatres were pulled down, and new ones erected, about the Siz e o f the Haymarket and Lyceum Theatres, or indeed of any of those denominated Minor Theatres. Th e best way of rendering the Patent Theatres at ' - tractive is to collect a good Company of Per. formers. The truth, however, is, that the large Theatres have injured the regular Drama, and destroyed the public taste. It is well known that Love for Lore was hissed a few years ago on its revival at Covent-Garden Theatre, though one of the ve r y b e st Comedies in our l anguage. There was a ti me w h e n The Careless h u sb and, and other Com e di es o f the same nature, Were un derstood and applaud e d even by the G a ll er i es, because the public in general could then h'ea'rand see the perf orman ces, and its tast e was re gularly trained to relish the moral charms o f t h e Drama ; to f ee l pl easure in the due expo l i ce of vice and in the ridicule of obtrusive folly:—N o , the dialo g u e o f Pl a y s styled Melodramas, a barbarous invention, is eked out by gestur e s more suitable to Pantomimes than , t i othe e r egu l ar whichcompositions of the Stage, h a s been pro perly called, and ought to be ) 44 Au E ven i ng School for Grown Gentlemen and Ladies."

FRANKS AND FAMILt JAMES O'BRIEN' Esq. the Coroner, who went to hold the Inquest on this unfortunate family, impanelled the following Jury :-- Henry Green Barry, Rich:4d Oliver Aldworth, George Bond bow, Thomas St. John Grant, Garrett Nagle, Henry Walker, John Heard, William Quinn Montgomery, Roger Sheehy Burke, Edmond N. Nordott, and Spotswood Boles. The Inquest lasted from eleven o'clock on Wednesday, till six O'clock in the evening. Five witnesses were examined, and after a very solemn investigation a verdict of "• Wilful Murder against persons unknown," was returned. The following is the substance of what appeared in evidence:— - • Mr. Franks's house had been burned some time ago, by the miscreants Who devastate this County; and was now undergoing repair. Not a door had been yet put up ; the family principally lived in one small room, not twelve &et square, the window sashes of which werenot put up, and the wind was eitduded only by a curtain. On the day of the murder, Mts. Franks and her son had been at Kildorrere, and returned to a late dinner, which had been scarcely over, when a noise was heard in the passage. Mr. F. started up and said, here are Inv friends paying me another visit," and beckoning to his wife and son to remain qniet, be went outside the room door; here he was met by a fellotvof large sta ture, bet Ween whom and him a contest commenced. The man was not armed, and theyfought with their handi4 Mi. F. retreating to the parlour t on his entering which, the Insurgents rushed in and soon filed the room. At this time a servant girl about 14 years of age, of the nUine of Mary Alyer, a most intelligent creature, slipped undee a table and concealing herself there, witnessed the horrid scene which- followed 4 The le a d er o f the Insurgents, a ruffian dressed in woman's clothes, demanded of Mr. Franks his anns. Mr. F. said he had none in the house, but that he would, if they chose, accompany the party to the Rock-Mills, and get them front . Mr. Smith who had. them. The leader then said " Boys do your duty," and he himself upset a table I on which a lighted candle was pleced,whieh being extinguished, 1 lie again had it lighted, at a fire in the ream. Alt. Franks, his wife, and son, went on their knees to beg for mercy, assuring the leader of the party that they had no anus, but here no mercy was to be found. The savage, as if impatient of del a y, snatched a short gun front one of his followers, and within three feet of the unhappy father, fired and lodged two bullets in his heart. They then proceeded to dispatch the eon, and here a dreadful scene ensued, the mother; only anxious to preserve her son, and regardless of her own safety, clung to the wretched young . man, as if to shield him front the vengeance of the assassins. They repeatedly tried to force her front him, and told her to return to another roette but she would not leave her son; they then struck her with a heavy iron bar on the left temple, and literally shattered the head to atoms; after which they beat the son's braille out; and mutilated all the bodies of the deceased. At the commencement of the horrid trork, another female servant had been shut up by the ruffians in a small room ; when they had murdered the young man they thought they heard some groan or sound as if life was not entirely extinct, and the candle having been extinguished, they took this ser vant flow her place of confinement, and one of them holding her by the hand with one hand and her head down with the other, made her proceed to a cupboard in the parlour,. and take out a candle and light it, they then drove two he a vy iron b ars , weighing 30 or 40 lbs. each, through the dead, bodies; and each man, in succession, took a long three-pronged fork, and re peetedly drove it also into the hodies. It also appeared that another ruffian, second in command, was dressed in female apparel. Ile commanded . outside the house ; and, seeing a woman appear at the door of an outhouse, with a child in her arms, he called out-." to bed, to bed," and'placed a cen tinel on the door. When the shot was fired inside, this fellow danced a regular hornpipe, as If delighting in the dreadful scene going forward. The woman of tide house is named Olaveen, and gave testimony as shovel. her son, immediately on the patty marching off, mounted It horse and rode to . Kilelorrery, whence a military party arrived in halt' an hour at the scene of carnage. It would appear that the Insurgents separated and proceeded in different directions, as blood was traced on the roads to Doneraile and Kildorrery. 'This is pretty nearly the substance of the evidence, and it is sufficient to thrill any soul With horror indescribable, and to stamp it deeper stain upon the Irish character, already sane grained with the bloqd of innumerable murders, and disgraced with_peculiee, atrOcittee. We are told that the tight, on entering Mr. Frank's house, was truly shocking. Nothing had been Moved since the per petration of the murder ; the dead bodies lay as they hied been left, in all the horror of gaping wounds, broken limbs, and mangled bodies. It was an appalling sight, and calculated to till the spectators with dismay. We are concerned to leurn that no clue appears to lead to the discovery of the offenders. REMAINS OF TILE EARL OF HOPETOUN*----Thtl remains of the late Earl of Iforrroux, G.C.B. and Colonel of the 42d Retment, are to be brotight from 'Paris to this country. An Admiralty yacht has been ordered to sail forth with to the coast of France, to receive on board, with all due honours, the remains of that gallant officer, in order to their being conveyed to, and interred in, the family vault in Scot land. This tribute of respect is juatly due to the memory of that brave and meritorious Officer. It may be truly said of him, " that his memory will be recorded in the annals of his country, will be sacred to every British soldier, and embalmed in the reflection of a grateful posterity." We have seen a letter, dated Vienne, to a German Gentleman, at present residing in Dublin, which mentions, on authority, that the Pmpezor of Austria has inti mated to the Governor of Bamberg ab assurance, that if the Auxtrian Slates shall continue agitated by the controversy, occaslonfd by the publication of Hohenlahe's miracles; he will issue his directions for the removal of the Prince to oast: us' THE FOILTRERS,ES.

'BRIGHTON, SEPT. 14.—A distressing circumstance oc curred here this morning:—A young gentleman, aged Rboqt 21, Joseph William Tucker, had taken a machine nearly facing the Cl fl-house of the Old Ship Tavern, as early as 7 o'clock, for the purpose of bathing. While swimming, it is supposed that the cramp seized hiM, and before assistance could be rendered,' he had perished. In about twenty minutes the body was found, and conveyed to the house of Mr. Pitt, Surgeon, at the ' bottom of Ship-street, where the means of restoring' sus pended animation were tried, in the presence of Sir William Wizard, who happened to be near, but witho u t effect. 'The deceased had arrived here but the night before, on a visit to his uncle, who, while bathing from another audible, witnessed the melancholy catastrophe. Yesterday. morning the neighbourhood of Owl sea experienced the effects of the dreadful and anti terrific storm. A large. tree, situated near the wooden bridge was torn up by the. root, *and. split asunder, supposed by a thunder-bolt, . but doing no further mischief. In the Five Fields a poplar tree was bereft of the bark in an instant, the fragments of which have not been discovered since ; and iu Pimlico an• other, shared a similar fate ; in several, of the garden- grounds adjacent, numbers of fruit trees, &c. were torn Up root and branch from the earth, • and carried some .distance from their former . station. In Surrey also, the shock was felt, were several trees leading to Bat tersea-fields, and along the line to Wands worth, were either broken to pieces, or severely damaged by the pelting torrents of rain. Some tenements also had the things and roofs of the buildings completely destroyed. During the whole of this awful occurrence we have not heard that any person was seriously injured on the oc casion. Last night, about eight o'clock, as Mr. Stm tavis, a Gentleman residing in Dean-street, Soho, was returning borne along Oxford-street with his wife and daughter, a little girl about ten..years old, in crossing the end of Poland street they were all three knocked down by the• leaders of the Ludlow and Worcester Mail, and, shocking to relate, the wheels passed over the body of the child and the legs of the father. — Mrs. S. escaped without injury.
