THE HARVEST IN SOUTH Yons.srunn.—The corn hervest is now very general in this neighbourhood, and dur ing the present week a great quantity of corn has been cut. The scythe appears to be more in use than the sickle, owing in some measure to the lightness of the straw, and also pro bably to the scarcity of Irish reapers, who have come over in much less numbers this year than in previous seasons. Tile grain is full, hard, and round, and the yield, both in bulk and quality, will be exceedingly guild.--Doncaster Chronicle, July at. 1/4.

The unfortunate man, Iliooms, was (by direction of the surgeon) taken down after 150 lashes, as he could not safely receive any more. Perhaps by a refine ment of cruelty, he will, on his recovery, be again tied up to receive the full remainder of his sentence, which must tell with much greater effect when applied on the cicatrized wounds, the newly organized skin. We are not informed of the offence fcr which LEE, the othe: sufferer was punished with 100 lashes, but from the lesser sentence we must suppose it to be of a very mitigated character. Englishmen, we call on you; to spare no exertions to effect the suppression, the total abolition of the horrible system, to remove the stain that must rest on our nation while the prac tice is sanctioned or tolerated. Madrid papers of the 25th have been received, but they are absolutely destitute of news. The Bolsa was closed as it was the fete of St. Jago. We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. The Journal des Debuts, in its account of the attempt on the lirs4a's life, says that two pistols were fired at the KING by the assassin, who made no resistance on being arrested. The assassin is fifty-five years of age, of small stature, and was elegantly dressed. A council of Ministers, at which the KING presided, was held at the Tuileries immediately after the arrest of the assassin, at which it was determined to refer the pro secution to the Court of Peers. The KING left for Neuilly as soon as the council rose. An express was sent after M. GUIZOT, Wjao had left in the afternoon, for Val Richer. He was overtaken at St. Germans, and immediately proceeded to Neuilly, where he was received by the KING and Royal Family, and arrived at half-after twelve, at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Had not the KING perceived the assassin, and pointed him out to the crowd, the probability is that he would have escaped. The assassin is said to be evidently a half idiot. It is feared, however, that the Ministry will be forced to execute him, as the .Opposition declare the whole affair to have been an election manoeuvre. It is to be hoped that the KING will prevail on his Ministers to treat these absurd insinua tions as they deserve, and that the life of the unfortunate idiot, who probably was not aware of the magnitude of the crime which he contemplated, will not be sacrificed because others are as wicked as he is weak. The KING and QUEEN left Neuilly for Eu on Monday morning, and at the same time the Duke and Duchess D'AumALE left by the Northern Rail road for Chantilly. In an article on the elections, the Presse taunts M. 'TIERS with not daring to address a public as sembly of the electors of France, because he is well aware that if he were to venture to give an exposition of his principles, so many of his now supporters would protest against his programme, that his alleged party would show itself to be a confused assemblage of dis cordant opinions —an anarchy out of which it would be impossible to form a homogeneous administration. The incendiary fires still continue in the neigh bourhood of Troyes. The heat in Paris, which had been so high as 89A de grees of Fahrenheit on Sunday, attained to 90 degrees on Thursday.

The pman of commercial pro- tection has been sung ; efforts the most strenuous have been made to preserve the ghostly residue of that very ricketty system ; but garbled statistics, exag gerated oratory, pathetic appeals, and vituperative hos tility have proved equally inefficacious. The mandate has been issued, and Monopoly beholds the moment of its immolation. Like " great Junius" at the base of POMPEY'S pillar in the Roman capital, Protection sees the futility of keeping its enemies any further at bay, and, " muffling up its garment round its face," prepares to die, if possible, with dignity, not to say decency. The honourable and melodramatic Member for the University of Oxford is the spokesman upon the oc casion—Mr. SPOONER is the false friend plunging his weapon into the bosom of the doomed system, in the name of patriotism— and with despairing accents and agonised features Sir ROBERT H. INGLIS ejaculates a kind of Et to Brute ! reproach, and resigns him self and his party to the decrees of an unpropitious destiny. " When I see a majority so large," says he, referring to the division which has just given one hundred and thirty in favour of Lord J. RUSSELL'S proposed scheme, " when I see a majority so large, I cannot but be conscious that further opposition is hopeless, and can only lead to irritation and to an useless interference with the discharge of public busi ness." At last, therefore, these redoubtable gentle. men are becoming conscious of their real position— they are proving themselves to be literally political JOHN WILLETTS. It takes such an amazing time for any single idea to soak regularly into their per-- craniums, and at length slowly and deliberately to break in upon their comprehension. Nay, so striking is the analogy between their character and that of the famous Mr. WILLETT, that we should hardly have been surprised if, supposing Mr. SPOONER to have made some correction, like that of SOLOMON DAISY, " your senses, Johnny, not your sense !"—we should scarcely have been astonished had Sir ROBERT INGnis turned upon the Hon. Mem ber for Birmingham, and after surveying him in the dull and immobile fashion of JOHN Winnzrr, at last silenced him in the words of his prototype—" You're a comin' it pretty strong, sir, you are !" But seri ously, we are rejoiced to perceive these protectionist representatives showing some consciousness of the fact that their position in the House of Commons is no longer tenable—that they can no longer continue a kind of heavy drag upon the wheels of the Legisla ture. The light of this idea is at last breaking in through the crusts of their prejudice, and illuminating the darkness of their comprehension. Happily the Ministerial project in relation to sugar is winning its way slowly, but surely and peacefully, through the lower ordeal of Parliament. The House has formed itself into a Committee for a consideration of the various resolutions; and, despite a variety of specious or blundering amendments, those resolutions have been successively agreed to, and the report ordered to be received on Monday next. These are, in short, indications of the ultimate acceptation of free trade by all parties without distinction—landlord as well tenant—the men with enormous rent-rolls and the men with a capital of sixpence-halfpenny, agriculturists as well as manufacturers. This we more than anticipate. The old hull of Monopoly is reduced to a wreck, and is floating off upon the surges of oblivion, the drowning protectionists are rescued from danger b 3 a_con porated (not among the compulsory passengers, but) among the working crew of free-traders. That is the posture of present affairs; the protectionists are now in a state of transition. That they will ultimately emerge from this transition, and assume a healthy and tenable attitude, we are confident. That they may do so quickly is our cordial aspiration. The enlarged accounts received of the extraordi nary scene that occurred in Conciliation Hall, on Monday, :strengthen the view we took on Thursday that an irremediable division has taken place among the repealers, and that every right thinking man will temperately rejoice at the separation effected between the advocates of " physical force," on the one side, and " moral resistance," on the other. If we thought that this exhibition of discord, and of inter nal weakness in the body of the Association would be, in any wise, meanly taken advantage of by the Executive, and lead to any relaxation of their expressed inten tions to introduce " comprehensive measures" for the political regeneration of Ireland, we should not be of those who will feel gratified at the secession of Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN and his intemperate disciples from Conciliation Hall. But our satisfaction is based upon the conviction that a high-minded and generously disposed Government will recognise the present posture of affairs among the repealers as the most favourable for their pursuing with increased energy any schemes -which they may have in contempla tion for promoting the future welfare of Ireland. The healthy functions of a Government are disordered, and its moral influence, which, to be effective, it ought al ways to maintain with the great body of the empire, becomes impaired whenever any great changes are wrought, by reason of their principles, repudiated, in the first instance, by the Executive, having been thereby subsequently embodied in a powerful associ ation, acting independently of, and in declared oppo sition to, the regular authorities of the land. Con cessions thus accomplished are deprived of all grace —they are ever attributed to fear —even, though late, moral conviction should ultimately lead the Go vernment to sanction them. Therefore, had the Repeal Association preserved its unity of strength, and, in the meanwhile, the Cabinet had se cured the approval of Parliament to the most salutary measures of different kinds of reform, there would not have been wanting many of the self-styled patriots of Ireland, who would have attributed their enactment exclusively to the agitation they had up held, and not, in any degree, to the intrinsically pure motives of a British Legislature. And such has really been the pernicious view enforced upon the minds of the Irish during the last seventeen years. It was so stated, acknowledged, and commented upon by the Duke of WELLINGTON, in the earlier part of the present session. But now the Governmen have an opportunity for reversing this untoward feeling, such as has not presented itself to any one of the numerous Administrations that have of late years ruled over our national concerns. Theirs will be the pleasing and opportune task, whilst dissension has broken the ranks of the repealers, to evince that a righteous perception of what is essential to the tran quillisation a n d po li t i ca l h app i ness of the neighbour ing isle, and not a craven sense of civil commotion, alone animates their every act, administrative, h av i ng referenceto Ireland. By acting with promptitud e an d zeal in this spirit, they will turn the present conjunct ure to the greatest possible account. They will cause the warm and ardent feelings of the Irish to flow in legitimate channels, and they will do much to take the sting out of the reproach which has been thrown unworthy overthe past, that, not from good-will, but front appre hensions, has any boon been recelved be by no lr lo el n a g n e d r . Anger, jealousy, and discontent w ou l d suffered to gangrene a nation's mind, whilst gratitude and affection would gain a rapid ascendancy. Consi derations such as these will_not, we are convinced, be lost sight of by LordJ.RUSSELL and his coadjutors, and hence our rejoicing at the rupture to which we have yesterdayand to-day called the attention of our readers. repeal itself we have always treated as the diseased production of an over-heated imagination. The exis tence of large political bodies, every well-judging man the abstract, be opposed to, Under special 1 circumstances, however—as when, for instance, the official rulers of the State obstinately fail to antici pate the just wants of the subject—the establishment of such bodies oftentimes, and particularly in periods of advanced civilisation, indirectly become wholesome instruments of reformation. We have never felt alarmed at the word " repeal" having been prefixed as the title of the associates of Conciliation Hall. We bear in mind the circumstances and events antecedent to their enrolment. We know that the same men belonged to different associaticns, rapidly formed and rapidly dissolved, with very harmless titles, and that that of repeal was only finally adopted when they despaired of obtaining justice from the Imperial Parliament. Let but justice be done now, and repeal will ere long be considered as nothing better than an enthusiastic delusion. Diplomatists, when negotiat ing treaties, always set out by asking for a great deal more than they expect to have conceded to them; and Mr. O'CONNELL, by force of circumstances, has, in the exercise of his political mission, as the appointed expositor of his country's wrongs, been driven to the same tactics. He has lauded repeal to the skies, but we all know well enough that political equality for Ireland with England and Scotland is all that he expects and all that he hopes for. From Sir ROBERT PEEL on resigning office, and from Lord JOHN RUSSELL on his acceptance of it, the two great poli tical leaders of the day, it has been enunciated that Ireland shall be no longer subjected to invidious dis tinctions. Since then, Mr. O'CONNELL has told them, in Conciliation Hall, that, provided they be accom plished, he thinks they ought to pause. With this good sense and moderation on Mr. O'CONNELL'S part, and with his merited influence over millions of his countrymen, Mr. O'BRIEN and his " chosen few" may be safely left to sink back into their original insignificance. The voice of public opinion has at length been heard in high places ; the feelings which have been so much excited by the shocking death of the unfortu nate young man, WHITE, at Hounslow, have had their effect in directing the attention of the highest military authority to the question of corporal punishments in the army. Lord J. RUSSELL on Friday announced that he had seen the Duke of WELLINGTON and also the Secretary- at-War upon the subject, and that the Duke, as Commander-in-Chief of the army, had measures in contemplation, not, we regret to say, with a view to the total abolition of corporal punishment, but with a view to regulate its exercise. Under these circumstances, and feel ing that it would be inconvenient to have a discussion in the House on the subject before the Duke had matured those measures, the Noble Premier requested Dr. BOWRING to postpone the motion of which he had given notice, and pro mised that he would shortly be able to inform the House of the nature of the intended mea sures ; he also promised, in answer to a question from Dr. BOWRING, whose exertions are so creditable to him as a man of humanity and a philanthropist, that if he (Dr. BOWRING) was not satisfied with the orders of the Commander-in-Chief when promulgated, an opportunity should be afforded to him of again bringing the subject forward befote the end of the session. If no other result followed the agitation on the subject, much that is valuable would already have been attained ; there is little doubt that any new regulations on the subject must have the ef fect of greatly restricting both the quantity of the punishment, the number of lashes sanctioned in each individual case, and also the number of per sons on whom they may be inflicted ; but we sincerely trust that the friends of the soldier and sailor will not be . satisfied with anything less than the total and immediate abolition of the hor rible cat. We conceive, that of all others, military men are the last to whom a question of such magni tude should be submitted. Old prejudices influence their minds; the long-continued existence of the atrocious system has, in too many instances, worn away the horror with which they must, in the earlier stages of their career, have regarded each individual case of flogging. Habit has been said to acquire the force of second nature, and thus they come to look at that which at first harrowed up their better feelings as a usual and necessary evil. The question must be considered by from any ,bias, and who are capable of giving a sound, common-sense opinion on the subject. Naval and military men may be very good witnesses, but they are unques tionably the worst judges 'to whom the decision of the subject could be referred. The only possible ground on which the practice could for a moment be supported is, that its existence is indispensably ne cessary for the maintenance and preservation of the discipline in both branches of the service ; it is not sufficient that it may be a strong auxiliary in the hands of a commanding officer, but can the efficiency of the army or navy, by any possibility, or by any means, be secured without a recourse thereto ? That it is possible to do without it, the condition of the French army and navy, in which it was totally and entirely done away with by NAPOLEON BONA PARTE, during the existence of a war of the greatest magnitude, when, if ever, such an adjunct would be re quired, and in which it has not since been restored, will sufficiently attest. What is there in the nature of Englishmen that they cannot be acted upon by the same motives and influenced by the same considera tions that are found to be of sufficient weight with Frenchmen ? The assertion is a grievous wrong to our countrymen. It is not tolerated or sanctioned, at least to the same extent, in the services of any civilised nation in the world. Can it be believed that within five years, from 1839 to 1843 inclusive, no less than 14,759 British sol diers and sailors have suffered the barbarous and cruel infliction ? On an average during that period 245 of our brethren, our defenders, have been so tortured and degraded in every month, and yet the Parliamen tary Return (308, session 1845), in which five regiments on foreign service, from which no returns were re ceived, are excluded, attests the fearful, the astound ing fact. How many of those 14,759 yielded up their lives, and suffered a death of unparalleled seve rity, for some trivial offence-..how many bro ken hearted men, with enfeebled and de cayed constitutions, lingered on a wretched and spiritless existence, or gave themselves up to dissipation and intoxication, ending in total depravity, it is impossible for us to conjecture. IVe fear that the victims were more numerous, their histories more heartrending, than the public can form any con ception of. The clear and lucid explanations given by Mr. WILSON in his evidence, to which we have already referred, and the admirable letter on the physiology of flogging, from "CENSOR,' which we published in The Sun of Tuesday, all show how fatal an injury to the skin, whether the result of a burn or a lash, may prove to the sufferer, that it may induce lingering disease and death Our columns last night recorded the death of a brave young man, JAMES CATTERMOLE, who burnt his hands severely on the 12th July last, in extin guishing a fire which had seized on the clothes of his young mistress. Although he received the kindest at tention, the most able professional assistance, and al though the burns to his hands were healed in the course of a few days, he gradually sunk, and on Monday last died from the shock to the system occasioned by the excitement and the injuries received from the burning. This melancholy case affords a strong corroboration to the opinions of Mr. WILSON and of " CENSOR." Why, then, should these things be ? Why should the lives of our fellow-creatures be so unnecessarily, so cruelly sacrificed ? The most zea lous advocates of the system, the most ardent and en thusiastic supporters of the necessity of flogging in the army and navy, admit that the less flogging there is the better ; that the ship or the regiment in which there is the most flogging is invariably the worst managed. Witness Sir GEORGE COCKBURN who, so far as the navy is concerned, made this statement on Friday night. If this be true, can there be a stronger argument for the withdrawal of the power from the persons who so abuse it ? Two recent in stances occurring in the 55th Regiment are recorded in the columns of our Contemporary the Rymouthjourna/; it states that in one, a man named lIIGGINs, was sentenced to 200 lashes for selling a portion of Ms kit, and threatening to throw his boots a t Colour-sergeant WILLIAMS.

REPRESENTATION OF CLONMEL, CONFIDENCE IN MR. O'CONNELL. ...f.rtszi.'—ix'lngd — AVVlllrdelitiai meeting ot the repeal constituency of this borough was held yesterday, for the purpose of considering the steps to be adopted in con sequence of the election of Mr. D. O'Connell, Jun.,' as the representative of Dundalk. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Alderman Hackett, and a resolution was proposed by Mr. O'Neill, and secended by Mr. Brennan, calling, in the name of the repeal constituency of Clonmel, upon Daniel O'Connell, the liberator and political father of his country, "in whom we place unlimited confidence" (such are the words of the resolution), to select one as their re presentative in Parliament whom he may recommend as a true repealer. The resolution goes on to express the regret of the electors at being deprived of the honour of being re presented in Parliament by the son of the Liberator, now the Member for Dundalk. This resolution was carried unanimously, and the anncuncement that it was so carried was received with rounds of enthusiastic cheering. SERIOUS ILLNESS OF D WARKANAUTH TAGORE.—We regret to learn that the distinguished Baboo, Dwarkanauth Tagore, is suffering from a severe attack of indisposition, which causes the most painful alarm to hie friends. We are given to understand that about three weeks since he experi encedspelh.v symptoms of indisposition,. and, at the recommenda ye'ssicti,larne.e dAalll.stlaiegoa,laarnmdinhge recommenda tion of his medical advisers, he went to Worthing, but not improving in health,. he again returned to town, for the symptoms of his disorder, which Is, we believe, an affection of the liver, see mfested has since been in a precarious condition. Dr. Chambers and advantage of being near t.h l e i: Mr. Martin, of Lower Grosvenor -street, have been in con stant att3ndance upon him. On Friday evening those emi nent gentlemen pronounced Dwarkanauth Tager° to be somewhat easier thank 3 had beent hep revious two days. LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM into para graph which we copiedour paper of Th urs d ay even i ng, and which was headed "Frightful Accident on the London and Birmirgham Railway," we find, on inquiry, that the accident alluded to did not occur on the railway at all. The man alluded to in the paragraph, who arrived at Euston square with a broken leg, had, it appears, met with the accident at some distance from the railway, and had been conveyed to the Pinner station, to be brou g ht up t o some hospital in London, in order to have the best surgical assistance; so that no accident w h atever occurred on the railway, the man with the broken l eg b e i ng a mere ordi nary passenger, who arrived at the terminus as safe and sound as he was when he left the station. DEAYR OF LIEUTENANT• COLONEL ROBERT WIN CHE.,,TER, K.H.—We regret to have to record the death of another Peninsular and Waterloo veteran, Lieutenant Colo eel liolert Winchester, late of the 92d Highlanders, but re tired on full pew, which took place at his residence in Edin burgh, on the 23d instant. Colonel Wi nc h ester entered the army at an early period of life, having be en appo i nted to an ensigucy in the 92d Regiment on the 18th of September, 1805, in which gallant corps he continued t o serve w i th much distinction during a period of nearly forty years. His other commissions are dated—lieutenant, February, 1808; captain, July, 1815 ; major, August, 1825 ; and lieutenant colonel, June 28, 1838. He accompanied the expedition to Copenhagen in 1807, and that to Walcheren in 1809. He served in the PeninNula from October, 1810, to the end of the war, including the Lines of the Torres Vedras, action of Arroyo de Molino, taking of Almarey, defence of Alba de Tonnes, battle of Vittoria, affairs of Puerta do Maya, 4th and Bth of July, 1813; battles of the Pyrenees, 25th, 30th, and 31st of July, 1813 ; affair of Roncesvalles, battle of the Nivelle, affair of Cambo, battle of the Nive, on the 9th and 13th of December, 1813 ; affair of Helleto, action at Garris, affair of Ariverettee, battle of Orthes, and actions at Aire and Tarbes. He was slightly wounded in the Pyrenees, July 25, and severely at the sire on the 13th of December, 1813. Colonel Winchester also served in the campaign of 1815, and was present at Quatre Bras, where he was wounded in the left hand, and at the memorable battle of Waterloo, when his right arm was fractured by a musket-shot. CITY OF LONDON SCHOOL.—On Friday the annual distribution of prizes to the successful students in the City of London School took place at the institution, Smith. street, Cheapside, in the presence of a large and influential meeting. The Lord Mayor presided, and was supported by Alderman Sir George Carrol, Alderman Sir Chapman Marshall, Alder man Sir James Duke, M.P., Alderman Hughes, Alderman Challis, Alderman Sidney, the Rev. J. C. Miller, Rector of Birmingham, and several members of the corporation. The Rev. Dr. Mortimer, the head master. in opening the proceed ings, remarked that the number of pupils at present in the school was 573, being an increase of 85 on the number last year. Every student who had proceeded from the school to the University of Cambridge had been placed in the first class. The only student who had gone to the University of Oxford was Mr. H. S. Fagan, who had just been elected to an open scholarship in Pembroke College, for which there were 27 candidates. In the University of London also the students had achieved honours. Declamations in praise of John Carpenter, the founder of the school, were delivered in English, Latin, German, Greek, and French, by Messrs. Fagan, Wilkinson, Be van , an d B arry. P r i zes consisting of scholarships, gold and silver medals, and books, were awarded to Messrs. Fagan, Barry, Ed ge r, S c oble, Hornby, ilkinson, Sineely, Smeaton, Bevan, Lingham, Abrahams, and Allen. Thanks were voted to the examiners, the head master, and the Lord Mayor, afte r w hi c h the meeting dispersed. n NPORT.—We regret to MILITARY FLOGGING AT state that the brutal and demoralising practice of man flogging has be en resorted to i n two ca ses at lle onport. One of the victi ms o f th i s barbarous mo d e . of punishment was a man named Higgins, of the 55th Regiment, who had been found guilty o f selling a portion o f h is kit, and of threatening to th row hi s boots at co l our - se rgeantWilliams. The poor fellow was sentenced to 200 lashes, and one day last week, the garrison was assembled in George's-square to wit ness the punishment. During its infliction, one of the soldiers informs us that Higgins " never winked an eye,' or let a sound escape him. But notwithstanding this, the surgeon felt it necess ary to stop the flogging when the man had re ceived 150 of th e 2 00 lashes, as te soldier, he said, could not safely take any more. During the infliction of the punish ment at least a d ozen of the men were carried out of the square, they being unable to stand the distressing scene. Another soldier of the same regiment, named Lee, received 100 lashes and twelve days' imprisonment.—/Vmouth Journal, MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. (From The Sun of Saturday Evening.) The festivities at Liverpool, yesterday, again caused holi day-making in the Cotton and Share Markets. By the Britannia steamer we have received our usual files of papers and letters from Canada and the United States. We are glad to find that as soon as the intelligence of the destructive fire at Newfoundland was received, a meeting of .the inhabitants of Quebec was held to receive subscriptions, and 1,000/. were given to be transmitted im mediately. Prompt administration of aid in a case like this is of course of urgent necessity. There seems to be a feeling springing up in Canada, that the new tariff of Sir Robert Peel's Ministry will not, after all, turn out so very dangerous to colonial interests as was at first supposed. By the way, it ought to have been beforo mentioned that 1,000 barrels of flour were immediately or dered to be shipped to St. John's, Newfoundland. The Re lief Committee for the sufferers by the tires at Quebec were continuing their operations. The total amount. paid up to the 29th June was 108,720/. Os. 11d. The balance was 50,591/. in the treasurer's hands, and 10,0001. 9s. 9d. lent out at interest at 3 per cent. The Committee were authorised to take steps to affording immediate relief to the extent of 15,000/. The number of vessels that had arrived at Quebec to the 9th July, inclusive, was, in 1846, 675; tonnage, 247,967. In 1845 the number was 831, of the tonnage of 308,719 tons. The mercantile accounts from New York are rather of a more favourable character. The weekly returns of the operations of the Bank of England, as compared with that of the previous week, shows the following results:— An increase in the circulation of 1,730,411/., or to 29,312,94 W.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Friday Mr. W. Baker held an inquest at the London Hospital on Charles Ramsay, aged forty-seven years. It appeared by the evidence that on Monday evening Mr. George Foskett, of llillwall, Poplar, was driving himself and two ladies in a one-horse phaeton along the Bridge-road, when the horse suddenly took fright. The deceased, who was on the footpath at the time, crossed the road, as supposed, for the purpose of stopping the horse, when he was knocked down and the wheels passed over him.

PRINCE ALBEII,T'S VISIT TO LIVERPOOL. LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY AFTERNOON.— After the Prince had for some time steamed on the Mersey yesterday, the cere mony of opening the Albeit Dock, which was one of the objects of the visit of his Royal Highness to Liverpool, took place. The most admirable arrangements had been made by the Dock Committee for the accommodation of the public, more especially the fairer portion of it, and for the avoidance of confusion. The ceremonial of opening the docks was simple in itself, but the scene around was extremely ani mated and beautiful, from the vast number of spectators who were assembled in the available parts of the dock and in the warehouses around. At half-past two o'clock the bridge of the dock was opened, amidst the firing of cannon, and the floating -cm teye, by the entrance of which the dock was in form to be opened, came in sight. Preceded by a Liverpool life-boat, manned, the state barge of the Victoria and Al bert and two gigs belonging to the Fairy, that elegant little vessel herself came steaming into the dock, bearing on board the Prince and his suite. His Royal Highness bowed re peatedly from the quarter-deck to the acclamations of the people. Around him, besides his immediate suite, were Mr. J. B. Moore, the Chairman of the Dock Committee, the Mayor, Lord Sandon, Lord Morpeth, Colonel Sir T. Arbuth not, Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, Captain Bevis, and Major General Warre. The Fairy then steamed round the centre of the clock till she came to the place at which the Prince was to. land. The Chairman of the Dock Committee, the Mayor, and some members of the committee, received the Prince on his landing Mr. Jesse Hartley, the Dock Surveyor, from whose plans the docks and warehousees are chiefly built, was here introduced to the Prince, by whom he was complimented on the great tesults of his skill that were around. The Prince was then conducted up stairs, where a &Jenne was to take place. The dock soon after presented a still more animating appearance, as other yachts belonging to the port entered; and at last came a large merchant vessel, the William Fisher, !which had been appointed to be less se thanr merchantman that was to enter the dock. No were 500 other persons on board. 250 sailors manned the yards, and it wa t s i c ie alc l u ,e l s a s te l d s t lo h w at l3 t r h e e n r . e . and very gallant sight. an swering their cheers, she p resented elee took place.

In doing so, I trust the cheers which have been heard by his Royal Highness will reach her Ma jesty, and convey to her, through the medium of his Royal Highness, the respect, the duty, and the loyalty of the people of Liverpool. I give you the health of her Majesty the Queen, and long may she continue to reign in the hearts of her people, as she now does, and in their ff • • etti a onate regard and esteem, The toast was drunk with nine times • nine and one cheer more. The CHAIRMAN soon after rose and said--Ladies and Gen tlemen, I have now th e h onour to propose the health f illustrious and disti ngu i s h ed guest, who has h ° our with his presen ce on t hi s occasion. —_(black on?ured us h cheering.) It contrasts strongly with by-gone times, when we see the princes and nobles of the land assembled among the mer chants and the trading community of the country. The trading community has contributed largely to the greatness of this country.

The toast was drunk with the mcst rapturous applause. When the cheering had subsided, His ROYAL Iltainsaiss said—l trust I may be permitted to return you my best thanks for the kind way in which my health has been proposed and received. The recollection of the splendid sight I have witnessed to-day will never be Faced fraa wy antia9l7.--(ld9zl ApplMe.) 1 beg $ 9 'r9. ;•t,"- pose a toast, which I hope you will all heartily join in; " Prosperity to British commerce."
