sions, the wife of a poulterer in Portman-market, was charged on a warrant, before . Mr. GREGORIE and Lord MONTFORD, with the following assault on Mrs. Ann Lalli man, whose husband carries on the same trade as defen dant's, and is his next-door neighbour. Complainant, whose eyes were black and much swollen, on Monday evening was sitting in her shop when a little boy came in, saying that Mrs. Mullet had sent him with a message, which was, that she, (complainant) was nothing better than she should be, and that she might take her change out of that, as Mr. Hume said. She sent in toMrs. Mullett's, and asked her if she had sent sueh a message, when she said she had, and, coming out to the door, after using the most abusive language, caught hold of one of her front teeth, which she never let go till she had pulled it from its sleket. It was certainly rather a yellow one, but she had been to a dentist, and he would not replace it for less than 30s. [The tooth was here produced, and appeared the worst for wear.] She then defended herself as well as she could, but could not extricate herself before she had received the blows which her face showed, and had lost full half-a-pound of hair, which the defendant tore from her head. Mr. GREGORIE—Did you return the blows ? Com plainant—Why, as an Englishwoman, I couldn't resist — could your worship ? But I stood no chance, for I'm fifty years of age and have had sixteen children, and she's only thirty, and about twice my size. It all occurred on account of jealousy in trade, we selling as many birds as they. Mr. GREGORIE—Have you any witness? Complainant —Yes, your Worship, a most respectable man, who's in a dying state.—(Laughter.) The dying man was here ushered in. He appeared in the full enjoyment of health, and gave his name Claridge, and stated that he was a greengrocer in Portman-market. On Monday evening he saw the defendant sot in com plainant's face, when the latter struck her. A fight then ensued between them, in the course of which they pulled each other's hair. Mrs. Lalliman—l deny it. Oh, you false friend. — (Laughter.) Mr. GREGORIE said it had turned out as they bad ex pected, and the defendant was therefore only fined ls. The complainant, who seemed surprised at the decision, then consigned the lest masticator and hair to the bag in which she brought it, and, with a heavy heart, left the office. John Knight 13Jtvlen, a journeyman tailor, wAs yester day charged on a warrant with assaulting Louisa Anne Maria, his wife, a pretty-looking young woman, under the following circumstances :—The complainant stated that for the last few months the defendant had been in the conti nual habit of heating l.er. On Wednesday night soul: , words taking place he :truck her several times, and then turned her out of doors, whereby she was obliged to walk the streets all night. On the previous night something dis pleasing him at supper he violently assaulted her, and again turned her out, and in consequence of such treatment she had that morning applied for a warrant. The defendant, in reply, said that on the preceding night he was very poorly, when his wife opened the window. Being afraid he should catch cold he desired her to put it down, which she refused, and he then gave her a blow as soft as a flea bite. Some recrimination on both sides here took place, which the magistrates put a s:op to by ordering the defendant to enter into his own recogdzanees to keep the peace. THAMES OFFICE. David Luckie, the master of the ship A'autillls, from Demerara, was brought before Mr. BALLANTINI: and Mr. BRODERIP, charged by Henry Nichol3o.l, a seatllilll be longing to the vessel, with having assaulted him on the high seas, by ordering him to be dragged from the hobo and se zed up to the main-rigging for four hoars with an iron gag ia his mouth, by which he lost ,the use of his arm for several days. After hearing evidence, . . Mr. BRODERIP was of opinion that the captain had bee! guilty of an act of violence quite unju3tifiaLlo. anal he he, never heard of a worse case. The se3tenco of the Benc: wad, that. Luckie should pay a fine of 51. to the Quern an, the costs, a sentence which was quite inadequate to th offence of which he bad been guilty. CHRIST CHURCH, SURREY. REFUSAL OF A CHURCH-RATE. The poll for a Church-rate of 21. in the poffild in this parish, finally closed yesterday at four o'clock, at which time the Church was crowed with parishioners, and the greatest anxiety was manifested to hear the result. Shortly after four o'clock, the Rev. Mr. Mappleton, ac companied by the Vestry Clerk, entered the Church, then the Rev. Gentleman ai.nounced the following to be the state of the poll : First Day. Secoul Div. Far the Rate 133 I Fur the Rate 176 Against it T,,tl For tlv Mice 309 Against it 457 Majority against the Rate The announcement iVasrceeived with loud cheers. Mr. WM. HAWES then came forward, and said he ob jected to every stage of the proceedings.—(Hear, hear.) The conduct of the Rev. Chairman had been most extra ordinary. He did not wish to make harsh observations, but that Rev. Gentleman's conduct had been, he would repeat, most extraordinary. Yesterday, three amendments had been proposed to the original question. The first was to ad journ the consideration of a rate for twelve months—ano ther, for a shorter length of time ; and the last, was to reduce the proposed rate from twopence to one halfpenny in the pound. Now, all of these amendments their Rector refused to put.—(Shame.) A refused he (Mr. Hawes) believed ti ithout a parrallel, and perfectly unjustifiable.—(Hear.) As the Chairman of a meeting, the Rector was bound to put any motion to a shew of hands, but he had not done so.— (Hear, hear.) He would not say their Rev. Chairman had not acted conscientiously ; he had told them he was guided by legal advice. Now he (Mr. Hawes) wished to have the name of the party who could have given such advice, that he might be held responsible for it.—(Cheers.) The name of the Rector's legal adviser ought to be given, in order that the parishioners might know what degree of weight could be attached to it.--( Hear.) He again begged to say that he protested against the proceedings of the Vestry, although in so doing he knew that he, and his Hon. Friend who seconded the amendment, were liable to be dragged into the Ecclesiastical Court.—(Hear.) He knew the rancour of the clergy and churchmen when they avere defeated.—(Hear, hear.) He did not fear them, however, if they would not raise amongst themselves money to carry on the service of the church, they would not con tribute to raise a fund for expensive litigation.—(Hear, hear.) He was sure those who voted for the rate had done so more for the sake of peace than concurring in its justice. He wished and was most anxious to see the question of church-rates brought to a settlement. He thought on the pre sent occasion their Rector had discharged his duty conscientiously, but so very erroneously, that for the first time (although be would not propose a vote of censure) he must decline passing a vote of thanks.—( Hear.) Mr. A. PELLATT said he had no personal objection to make against the /Lector, but he must publicly state that his conduct on the present occasion had been most extraor dinary and unjustifiable. He was not afraid of the Eccle siastical Court, and his only object was to set the question of Church-rates in that parish at rest for twelve months, in which time, no doubt, there would be an alteration of the law. He wished to get rid of the animosities which had too long prevailed ; but that would not be done by simply re fusing a rate, for as soon as another poor-rate was made, they might depend upon it the churchwarden would imme diately propose another church rate.—( Hear, hear.) But if the amendment had been carried the question would have been entirely disposed of for twelve months. He had never before witnessed or known an instance where the Chairman of a meeting refused to put an amendment.— ( Hear, hear.) The consequence would be that every three or four months a rate would be called, and the animosity rekindled. The course the Rector had adopted was, in his opinion, most censurable. The REV. CHAIRMAN said he only wished to say a few words, but they should be the words of peace and concilia tion. He regretted the continuation of unkindly feeling in the parish—( Hear, hear)—and hoped the tenor of his life had been to promote peace and good feeling.—( Hear, hear.) On the present occasion he had acted conscientiously, and if he had erred, it was an error of judgment, and not of the heart. He wished to live in peace and harmony with all his parishioners, and trusted those who heard him would re ceive that declaration in the same sincerity with which it was offered. He thanked them for the attention with which they had heard those few observations, and had only to de clare the meeting adjourned. The meeting then separated. COLONEL CRAUFURD'S STORIES OF SPANISH LIFE.—One great merit of this work is the truthfulness mil fairness which evidently pervade it. Nobody is painted en teas. The vices of the Spanish character—its dis re'rard of shedding blood—its abject superstition—its wild rev,nge are drawn with vivid and startling effect ; but it s virtues are so equably brought out that the horrible picture is almost redeemed, and th e rea d er ma d e to fee l , that the men and women are what circumstances have made them. The adventures are stated to be actualities, of which the author was either an eye-witness himself, or the circumstances of which were related to him by those who took part in them. The characters are distinguished by nature, truth, and a universality which is only found in the higher class of fictions.—Spectate: - . Loss OF FIVE HUMAN BEINGS BY DROW;4- ING.—A turf boat on its way from Ross to this city was lost a few days since between the former of tiles:, places and Carrigholt, by which,five human brings met a watery grave. There were six on board, and but one reached land in safety, after considerable excrtion.—Limerick Standard, WESTMINST_ER MAGISTRATES. The usual quarterly meeting of the Magistrates of the city of Westminster was held yesterday at the Sessions House, for the despatch of business. J. Const, Esq., in the chair. There was an unusually full attendance of Magis trates. MUSIC LICENSES. Licenses for music and dancing - were renewed to the fol lowing places, no person appearing to oppose their renewal : —The St. James's Theatre, to John Braham, Esq. ; the Lowther Assembly Rooms, King William•street, to John Blake ; the Hanover-square Rooms, Hanover-square, to Thomas Martin ; the Duchess of Clarence, in Vauxhall Bridge-road, to Walter Swift Wilford ; the Lord Dover; and Swan Tavern, in Hungerford-market, to H. Phillips. There were no fresh applications for music licenses. PETITIONS TO THE COURT. The Hon. F. BYNG brought forward a motion, of which he had given notice :—" That no petition or memorial ad dressed to the Magistrates in general sessions assembled be read in open Court, unless it be presented by a Magistrate, or be certified by the Chairman to come properly under the cognizance of the Court." The Hon. Magistrate said the object of his motion was to prevent the petitions presented to that Court from being made the medium of slanderous attacks upon the charaters of Magistrates. Mr. MACWILLIAM seconded the motion. Mr. Sergeant ANDRIMS said that if the present motion were carried it would deprive the public of the right of petitioning the Court altogether. After a very long discussion the motion was carried, with the addition of an amendment proposed by Mr. Halsewell, Except petitions relating to the ordinary business of the Court." There being no other business, the Court adjourned. The trial of the remaining prisoners was ordered to stand over. NORWICH TORY FETE. " At the hour oar journal is going to the press, the grand Conservative Festival is preparing in St. Andrew's Hall with suitable magnificence. Blinded by party rage alike to moral sense and political policy, alike to present disgrace and future consequences, the Magnates of the county have not disdained to join the right hand of fellowship with the infected itching palms of the Norwich Corruptionists. They have stooped to herd their sound stock side by side with the rotten cattle of the Norwich market. But they may hereafter repent this association. The disease is catching. The partition between the honest and the dis honest voter is now thrown down. The contagion had al ready reached them, and now through the example of their leaders it will spread like wildfire." We find the foregoing judicious notice of the contem plated Conservative gathering in the columns of the Nor-- wick Mercury of this morning. Our Contemporary after wards proceeds to deprecate the attendance of the Marquis of Douro, asking if " the Duke of Wellington will allow his sou and the heir of his high honours to appear as the representative of the basest constituency in the empire by the basest instrumentality, and to take his place in the pageant of a triumph, the disgrace of a; hich can only be Measured by the atrocity of means by which it has been gained." Our respected Contemporary concludes his just remon strance with the Marquis of Douro, urging him to avoid the contamination of taking any share in what the persons who seek his countenance call a " Conservative triumph," in the following powerful and appropriate terms :—" We have scan within the last few years, and with more true ,ortow than we can express, for we still love and venerate the institutions of our country—we have seen a Lord Lieu tenant of a county in violation of the spirit, and in direct defiance of what had been the letter of the Constitution down to a late period, preside at an election dinner—we hive seen another " Peer of Parliament" assume a similar place for the avowed purpose of screening a Lord Lieu tenant from the justly apprehended visitation of the C rocco and Government—we have seen a lawyer elevated to the Bench end called to the Peerage after the Narrowest esca; e from expulsion from the [louse of Commons for undue election that ever lawyer had—we have seen all these things done Ix,' and happen to persons holding the rank of Noble men, and having the language of Conservatism on their lips ; but God forbid that the world should witness this last and wort degradation of the aristocracy in the person of the immediate heir and successor to the honours of the Dukedom of Wellington." The hereditary Prince of thange was to leave Stut:- gard on the tith inst., to, proceed to Italy, by the way of Munich. There nppears to be no longer any doubt that his Royal Highnesi will shot tly receive in marriage the hand of the Prioeess Mary of Wurtemberg. FATAL ACCIDENTS ON THE LONDON AND BLit miNunAm RAILWAY.-On Saturday, the 7th instant, an inquest was held at Bradweil, Bucks, before J. W. Cow ley, Esq., on view of the body of Henry Johnson, aged sixteen, who was killed under the following circumstances : The deceased was employed on the railway to drive wag gons. On the previeus day he was improperly riding on the first waggon of a train laden with excavated earth, and in attempting to get down, in order to guide the horse at one of the moveable points or switches (which are used to effect a junction between one line and another), unfortu nately his foot slipped, and he fell across the rail, and the wheels passed over his body and almost divided it, thereby causing instant death. In the course of the investigation, it was found the boys were generally sanctioned by their employers in getting up and down as they pleased, notwith standing the length of the vehicles, and there being no pro jection or convenience for that purpose. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death, with a deodand of one shilling upon the horse and waggons ;" accompanied with a caution to the contractors, as, in the event of a similar case coming before them, they should certainly feel called upon to fix a much heavier deodand. On the 9th instant an in quest was also taken before the same Coroner, at Soulbury, on the body of Michael Halley, aged twenty-five, who with others were engaged in removing the centre of an arch ex tending over the railway. After successfully taking down a small portion, one of the props (being a three-inch deal plank) bent, as was described, like a bow, and spran g from its position with considerable violence upon deceased, who survived only a few minutes. The propping was extremely slight, and the jury recommended the principal to be more particular in future, and entrust such difficult work to more experienced hands. Verdict—" Accidental death ; deodand one shilling." The grand canal tunnel at Coseley, near Bilston, which forms part of another important work undertaken by the Birmingham Canal Company for the improvement of their navigation, was opened to the public on the 6th nstant. In the construction of this tunnel care has been taken to obviate the delays and inconveniences experienced at narrow tunnels on many of the old canals. The water way being 17 feet in width, and a horse towing-path being provided on each side, both horses and boats are enabled to pass through it either way uninterruptedly at all hours; and the severe labour to which boatmen are subjected at narrow tunnels, in propelling their vessels by the process called " legging," is, as regards this tunnel, entirely super seded. By th completion of the new or improved line, of which the tunnel forms a part, the direct canal route be tween Birmingham and Wolverhampton has beon further shortened four miles ; and when the other works now in progress shall have been completed, the route will be equally short with the turnpike-road. The cost of the line now opened exceeds 65,0001.—Wolverhampton Chronicle. A splendid monument is to be erected in St. An drew's Church, Plymouth, to the memory of Northcote, the celebrated painter. This talented man was born in Plymouth in 1746, where his father was a watchmaker. He was intended for the same employment, but evinced so strong a predilection for the Fine Arts, that through the intervention of a Gentleman residing in his native town, he was placed under Sir Joshua Reynolds, and in the course of a few years attained to a very high degree of perfection, displaying in most of his historical works that force of con ception which is the true characteristic of genius. He died on the 15th of July, 1831. The monument, with one to be raised in London, is to be erected under a provision in his will. The Semaphore of Marseilles mentions that Ad miral Lalande is at Naples with his squadron, and that he is returning to the coast of Africa. We grieve to hear that poor John Clare, the Northamptonshire poet, is at this moment confined in the Lunatic Asylum at York, where he was sent about three months since—and it is much feared that his case is hope less. Other, and equally melancholy, reports of a man of far higher genius have been current in the daily papers this week, to which we do not more specifically advert, out of delicacy to the individual and his family, and in the con fident hope that they are exaggerations. Nor should we have mentioned the situation of John Clare, but that the poor fellow mast be friendless, at such a distance from his native home ; and in the hope that some one in the neigh bourhood, now informed of his situation, will take care that he does not want for such trifles as would contribute to his comfort, and are allowed by the rules of the esta blishment.—Athenceum. HERRING TRADE.—SaIes here during the week have been rather dull. Packed, 20s. ; re-packed, 21s. Scarcely any of the latter description have been made up this sea9on. Not more than 3,000 barrels remain for sale in the Wick district, and it is supposed that the quantity unshipped does not amount altogether to more than from nine to ten thousand. Freights to Ireland have fallen con siderably since our last, and now rule from 2s. 3d. to 9d., according to the distance of the ports. Our accounts from that country, as regards prices, continue still to be of rather an unfavourable nature, although the demand is pretty good, which is invariably the case there, when the article can be procured at moderate rates.—JolinO'Groatiournal. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1837 MONEY MARKET. A private letter from New York states that the cashier of the United States Bank has resigned his office, and that he is about to proceed to London to reside permanently as the head of an agency for conducting the exchange opera tions between the two countries. This is supposed to be intended as a counterpart to the agency recently sent out to New York by the Bank of England, and hence the con clusion that the two establishments are to act in concert, and graft this kind of business, which is essentially of a mercantile character, upon their usual banking transactions. The proceeding is not likely to be agreeable to our mer chants, from whom it will take a very lucrative branch of their engagements. Now that various measures are before Congress, which, if passed, are likely, whether viewed in the aggregate or separately, to exercise a powerful influence over the circulation in future, if not entirely to revolu tionize it, the present position of the banking inte rests, which will be more immediately affected, becomes a matter of curiosity. As the different States of the union had not all made provision, like that of New York, on the suspension of specie payments, by which it was rendered obligatory on the banks to publish the situa tion of their affairs periodically, under the inspection of Commissioners named for the purpose, it is therefore out of the question to procure a whole view of the case. The Bank Commissioners for New York had, however, made up and published the returns of all the city banks and the banks of the State up to the Ist of September, ex cept the Manhattan, the Dry Dock, and the Delaware and Hudson. The Sackett's Harbour Bank and the Longport Bank being, as stated, defunct now, are not included in the present returns at either of the dstes mentioned. The statement is given in an abridged form for 95 banks of the city and State, and it may serve, probably, as an approxi mate indication of the present situation of the whale bank ing interest of the Union. 1837.

The circumstances which are most calculated to fix at tention on this document are the increase of profits and the extraordinary reduction of the debt to the General Go vernment. Notwithstanding a decrease in the loan and discount business to the extent of 8,000,000 dollars, and of paper circulation of 9,000,000 dollars, as well as of depo sits 01 nearly 2,000,000 dollars, which are the great sources of banking gains, the profits divisible among the proprietors had advanced in eight months nearly one-seventh in amount, or not far short of 14 per cent. increase on September 1 over January 1. It has been hinted on a former occasion, that this accumulation of profit, in the face of a considerlble decline in the amount of regular business transactions, could only be accounted for by the fact that the banks had been trading with the specie which they held in depo,it, end thus realising the enormous rat s of premium at which it was saleable in the Money M trket, against their own or the notes of other banks with which their own %vete exchangeable at par. Against this supposition it is Lir to state, however, that such a case is hardly recon cilal le with the immense reduction effected in the debt due to the Government ; nor without more full returns, showing the amount of available securities held by the Banks at the commencement of the year, and how these have been disposed of, as well as the past and existine state of their capital stock, can any satisfactory solu tion of the matter be arrived at. Alt that can 'a e said is, that the increase of piolits is a most remarkable fact, taken in conjunction with money embarrassments and mer cantile insolvency upon a scale such as the world never witnessed before. In this arrival of papers from New York there appear some particulars of proceedings of Banks in various parts of the union, meant to pave the way for a resumption of cash payments, without ,citing for the intervention of Congress. The lead was taken in theta by the New York Banks, and among the means suggested for the proposed end was a general convocation of Banks, to meet early in Oetob2r, in the city of New York ; but the Phidadelphia Banks, on receiving a proposition to that effect, unanimously declined it. The reasons assigned by them for so doing form a curious instance of special pleading ; the real ground of refuse', though dexterously covered, being ap parent through all, that the measure proposed did not suit them, and that they wished, at all events, to gain time.— h a tes.

A grace to confirm the above report will be offered at the congregation on Wednesday next, the 18th instant. Mr. Richard Stevenson, Fellow of. Trinity College, whose death we recorded in our last week's obituary, was third wrangler in the year 1834, and the author of some memoirs on mathematical subjects. For some time before his last illness, he was engaged in the preparation of a " Complete System of Analysis," a work for which he was in every way qualified by his great knowledge and his un commonly clear and vigorous understanding. A very se vere attack of influenza in January last was followed by symptoms of consumption, under which he gradually sunk, to the great grief of his parents and friends. On Friday se'nnight, the Rev.

Last night a total eclipse of the moon took place, being the second appearance of that grand and impressive pheno menon during the present year. The sky was interspersed with light flecy cloud, becoming more thickly congregated towards thc east and west. The air was clear and bright, though far colder than it had been since the setting in of the autumn, so that the spectator had ample opportunity to observe the progress of the change of the appearance of the moon, which durlng the preceding part of the night had been shining in full refulgence. At 3'2 minutes past eight o'clock, Greenwich time, the moon entered the penumbra, or exterior shadow of the earth. At. 31 minutes past nine, when she had attained an altitude of 38 degrees, the first contact between the disc of the brilliant satellite and the dark or full interior shadow of our planet was observable. The dark body of the earth swept gradually over the orbit of the moon, its circular proportion still lessening, and the obscurity beneath becom ing deeper, until, at 31 minutes past ten, the eclipse be came total, and the darkness attained its greatest degree of gloom. After a solemn interval of an hour and thirty-two minutes her bright outline again became visible, and the light - increased us the interposing body advanced in its transit, until three minutes past one this morning, when the light was once more circular and strong, though it had to penetrate through the faint veil of the penumbra. At one minute past two the last trace of the obscurity of the eclipse had followed in the wake of the earth, and except during the shadow thrown down from the occasional pas sage of a fleet of clouds, the moon's brightness continued until daybreak. During the progress of the eclipse the moon was conse cutively in the zenith of those places in Africa which are on a line with Zorzella, on the coast of Ajan to the east, and Sierra Leone to the west, and consequently including a very considerable portion of Upper Guinea and the northern extremity of the kingdom of Benin. The darkness was by no means thick, for while the moon was totally immersed in the interior shadow the refraction of the sun's light by the atmosphere of the earth was so strong as to cause the surface of the moon to be dimly perceptible, imparting to it a dull reddish hue, such as may be observed when the moon is sometimes seen on a foggy night. ' The contrast between the refracted and direct rays of the sun at the time of emersion was very striking ; the eclipse passed away, the inward edge of the bright portion of the moon's disc occasionally presented a very ragged appearance, owing to the solar rays first illuminating the sum mits of the high lunar mountains. The different pheno mena that presented themselves during the meeting, as viewed through a telescope, were at once curious, beauti ful, impressive, and creative, exciting the fancy and the science to wander through the immensities of the solar sys tem, until the spectator, exhausted by questions that seemed to multiply and extend as he proceeded, desisted from the inquiry, and mingled his astonishment with religious humi lity and gratitude. THIRD AND LAST EMBARKATION OF HIGHLANDERS TO AUSTRALIA FOR THE SEASON. The arrival of the ship Brilliant at Tobermory, for the conveyance of emigrants to New South Wales, took place on the 16th September. The size and splendid fittings of this vessel created a sensation in Mull never before equal led ; the Highlanders having only been accustomed to see small vessels fitted for American emigration, and when the time of embarkation arrived, many families came from a distance prepared to embark, if those engaged should change their resolution, as every thing appeared so comfortable and requisite for such an undertaking. The state of the weather on Monday the 25th enabled the embarkation to be completed with the utmost regularity ; and on Tuesday afternoon a farewell sermon was preached in Gaelic by the Rev. F. M'P►herson of Tobermory to 320 souls about to leave their native land. The people to be conveyed by this vessel are decidedly the most valuable that have ever left the shores of Great Britain ; they are all of excellent moral character, and from their knowledge of agriculture, the management of sheep and cattle, must prove a most valuable acquisition to a Colony like New South Wales. The greatest credit is due to the clergymen, the proprie tors and their agents, for the kind interest and attention to the poor people's wants, as there is not one family but are amply provided with every thing necessary for the voyage. Among the many visitors that came to see the irilliant was a gentleman, a native of the country of their adoption, Mr. James M'Arthur. The interest created by this gen tleman's visit was truly astonishing, and Mr. M'Arthur expressed himself highly gratified with the prospect of having so valuable an addition to the Colony, and pre sented all he met with letters of introduction, which were joyfully received as passports to sure and profitable em ployment. The ship was towed out of Tobermory by a steamer on Wednesday at day-light, with a fine light breeze, and sin cere and true were the kind wishes of all who beheld her depart. The embarkation was superintended by Dr. Boyter, R.N., the Government Agent, to whom most grateful ac knowledgments were made for his kind attentions to all interested. The following is a list of the districts from which the emigrants were taken, and the numbers from each : Ardnamurclian and Strontian Coll and Tiree Mull and lona Morven Dunoon Teachers Surgeons Total —lnverness Con, ier. . 322 Despatches were received yesterday at the Colonial Department from Major-General Sir J.

William Marsh was unsuccessfully opposed by the Con servatives, first, on the ground that though he was ten years in possession of the property for which he quali fied, and had paid a valuable consideration for it, yet that the deed of conveyance was on a wrong stamp ; secondly, that it had been purchased by him subject to a mortgage of 601., the interest on which had not been demanded or paid for the last ten years, and that it was not now worth the mortgage and interest ; and thirdly, that he had entered into an agreement for the sale of it, that the deeds for this purpose were drawn up, but that he had delayed signing until his name should have been first inserted on the list of voters. John Elkins was also unsuccessfully opposed by Mr Watts, on the part of the Conservatives. Neither of the eases was interesting. MURDER OF THE GOVERNOR OF PRESTWICH WORKHOUSE BY ONE OF THE PAUPERS. PRESTWICH, THURSDAY.—On the 4th of September last a most unprovoked and brutal assault was committed upon Mr. Jonathan Fielding, an elderly man, the Governor of the Workhouse, situate in the township of Prestwich, near Manchester, by Joseph Dennerley, one of the paupers resident in the workhouse. It appeared that about nine months ago, Dennerley, with his wife and three children, were received as paupers into the workhouse. Since that time, Dennerley, who is a man of violent temper, disliking the restraint under which by the rules of the establishment he was placed, has set at defiance the authority of the Go vernor, and frequently took the liberty of leaving and return ing to the house whenever he thought proper. On other occasions, whilst in the workhouse, his conduct has been of so riotous and disorderly a nature, that Mr. F. has been reluc tantly constrained, in order to enforce his authority as gover nor of the house and insure obedience of the rules, to send Dennerley to the New Bailey Court-Louse, Salford, where he has been brought before the Magistrates arid punished by imprisonment. He had frequently threatened that he would be revenged upon the Governor for having caused him to be taken before the Magistrates, but little notice was taken of his threats. On the 4th of September, Den nerley, having only just suffered an imprisonment of three weeks in the New Bailey, was employed at the workhouse in weaving. In the course of preparing the warp for weaving it is necessary that the threads should be rubhei with a sort of paste made of flour, and called in weaver's phraseology " the sow ;" after which the threads are dried by means of an iron heated for the ptirpose. On the day in question, Mr. Fielding, the governor, together with two women, named Taylor and Schofield, were in one of the rooms used by the paupers as a day-room. He was attend ing to some " sow" which was boiling on the fire, when Dennerley came up to the fire-place, and taking his drying iron from the fire, turned with the iron round upon Mr. Fielding, and struck him two most savage blows upon his head. The poor old man instantly fell to the flour, and the women screamed out for assistance, whilst Dennerley coolly exclaimed, " I have killed him." He instantly left the place and ran off, intending to escape. He was, however, pursued, and captured by a man named Samuel Biacklev, by whom he was taken back to the workhouse. Whilst in the kitchen he seized a table knife and cat his throat in a frightful though not dangerous manner, and he was secured against making any further attempts upon his life by being placed in safe custody. An inquest on the body of the deceased took place yes terday, at the workhouse, when, after evidence had been heard, the Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Joseph Dennerley," and the Coroner committed the prisoner to take his trial at the next South Lancashire Assizes, at Kirkdale. The prisoner is a middle-sized, thin man, apparently about forty years of age, and of a passionate and unfor giving temper. THE AMERICAN MARKETS. It affords me pleasure to be able to announce that a de cided improvement has taken place in the Money Market since my last. The discounts and issues of the banks have greatly diminished, while those institutions are every day becoming in a better condition for the resumption of specie payments. They will, no doubt, be ready to resume the moment a period may be designated for that purpose. Their amount of specie on band in Philadelphia, New York, Bos ton, Baltimore, and New Orleans is liberal, while their amount of circulation has been greatly curtailed since the suspension. I have said that the Money Market is much easier ; and nothing more clearly illustrates this fact than the rate at which Treasury drafts are now selling, viz., 11 per cent. above par. Specie also, it will be observed, has fallen to five per cent. and four and a half premium ; while I am assured, by those who have paid considerable atten tion to the subject, that the exports of this article have, notwithstanding all the noise that has been made, not very materially exceeded the imports. Stocks, too, have ad vanced a shade ; and thus the general aspect of affairs is better and brighter. Business is still exceedingly dull when compared with former seasons, but the clouds are breaking away, and by the spring at least the sunshine of prosperity will once more beam down upon this country. United States Bank Stock is up to 1181, 119, with a rising prospect ; and all other favourite Stocks exhibit a similar advance and promise. A new course of policy, it is rumoured, will be pursued by the United States Bank, the exact nature of which has not yet transpired. It is certain, however, that Mr. Jaudon, the cashier, has been appointed " agent, to reside in London," and that Mr. Cowperthwait will fill his late situation. It is also re ported, but, remember, only reported as yet, that this colossal Bank will soon resume specie payments. I have before informed you that several of the New Orleans Banks are paying specie. Two of the New York Banks are doing so to a certain extent, and there is every reason to believe that a general resumption will take place, at furthest, in the spring of 1838. The issue of 9,000,000 dollars or 12,000,000 dols. of Treasury notes cannot fail to hare a good effect upon the currency, as specie to that pre cise amount will be kept among the people at large, instead of being absorbed by the Government and its agents. Exchange on England may now be quoted at 119. Sovereigns are down to 5 dols. 15c. to 5 dols. 14c. Other gold and silver in proportion. The last advices from Liverpool announcing a rise of to s on cotton, have had a cheering effect upon the market for that staple in every part of the Union ; and of course a corresponding advance has been produced. Indeed, as cot ton becomes more than ever a favourite article for shipment for remittances, the advance has been a shade higher in proportion. Total imports into New York from the Ist September to the 14th, 4,152 bales ; exports, 2,032, with large quantities engaged for ships about to sail, freight to ; 12 to 12i per cents. for good qualties of Upland and New Orleans were given on Saturday. Total exports from the United States since October last, 1,141,874 ; ditto, ditto, same time last year, 1,103,481. The prices of sugar, coffee, foreign grain, and indeed all other imported articles, as quoted in my last, are fully sus tained. In ashes, pots have risen 12i cents ; 5,124 bushels of corn were exported from New York, between the Ist and 14th September. Molasses is the only article looking downward. IMPORTANT.-POSTSCRIPT TO AMERICAN MARKETS. Mail just leaving. Specie continues to fall. The fol lowing are the latest prices :—Sovereigns, 5 dol. 14c. to 5 dol. 13c. ; Half-dollars only 54 premium ; Quarters, 4 ; Mexican dollars, 6 ; Doubloons, 16 dol. 62c.; Patriot, 16 dol. 40c.

BEGGARS IN TIIE OLDEN TlME.—There iS a curious description of the life of a beggar of the time of Elizabeth, in the Belntan of London, published in 1608. After describing his various modes of raising supplies, the writer adds, " The whole kingdom is but his walk, a whole cittie is but his parish : in every man's kitchen is his meat Brest ; in every man's cellar lyes his beere ; and the best men's purses keep a penny for him to spend." The Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship Leith arrived at Blackwall yesterday morning at ten o'clock, having performed he: passage from Edinburgh in forty-ono hours ; and the Company's packet London Merchant reached Downes' Wharf on Thursday night at twelve, hav ing made the voyage from Newcastle in thirty-five hours. TURKEY CONSTN ATINOPLE, SEPT. 20.—The ministers of the Sultan have not yet had time to re cover from blow as a t h e state of stupefaction and surprise into which so unexpected the sudden discovery and punishment of th e crimes of one of their number had thrown them , m ore particularly un as he was one whom all had unanimously ag reed in pronecing to be the ver type of honesty itself. la fact so gre y at shment has the dismissal and disgrace t degree of astoni Perteff Pacha excited in the minds of all h e re, that " Is be not honest ?" was almost the sole question re-echoed from_ mouth to mouth for some days in the . political circles of Constantinople. The Sultan, however, basing discevererdl that both Perteff Pacha himself and his brother at the bee of the war department, had been guilty of the basest etos cf injustice and cruelty, he with his own hand wrote to thei Grand Vizier, stating that, having convicted them of the blackest ingratitude, he ordered they should both be In stantly dismissed from his service and exiled, and be re placed by Hakiff Effendi and D efterdar Ali Bey. The whole of the property of Perteff Pacha has since been con fiscated, and his magnificent palace given to one of tir Sultanas. The disgrace of Pert eff Pacha has been t subject of much discussion here, as being considered a se vere blow to British influence at th e Ottoman C r t. That influence must be little inde ed if it can s uffer anY detriment from the fall of a bigoted fanatic, whose sole aim and ambition has been to gratify his ow n n avaricious - sires by abusing the confidence wit h which his Sovereig honoured him. Several other changes have taken plac e this kin th i e wee minor departments of the Government , all the individ: removed being of Perteff Paella's party, but t hough r t o l grand blow is struck, the scene is not yet over. It seems beyond doubt that the ex-Seraskier, Husreff p ucka, will again come into power, but it is not yet known wile appoiltment he is to have. Intrigues of all kinds are going on, and it will be some time before the Government is again settled. Affairs are beginning to look rather black here between the French and Ottoman Governments wit h re g ard to Tu nis, and it is reported here that the Capitan Pacha has in quired of the Governor of Malta what part w ould bee taken by the British fleet in the event of his finding it nessary to interfere in the war which at present menaced the T" -- nisian states. A Grand Council was held at the Porte ° 9 Monday, in which it is supposed this question was. d , c o u xt s To se rho d eo , lT b a u ffr t ea , bi i ri n ssoh) t i l iz t il e e,o present unsettled state of the steamer beenalmost i entirelyarrived here n e gyloesetteert y, but brought no news of any kind from Persia.
