SECOND EDITION. 051 tit LONDON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 1846. Although the principal glory of this session will be attributed to the gigantic reformations in the com mercial code realised by the PEEL Ministry, and al though the succeeding Administration will have ex isted only during the mere residue', of the session, a share of its glory will nevertheless be associated with the RUSSELL Cabinet—the glory of consummating the triumph of free trade. A very brief period has elapsed since our new legislators came into office, and yet, notwithstanding the multiplicity of embar rassments by which they were threatened, the Bill in troduced under their auspices for the equalisation of the sugar duties has already passed through Com mittee in the Commons. The hidden rocks, which some amongst the enemies to monopoly had dreaded, have all melted away ; nothing re mains but smooth water and a fair wind. Accelerated by the despondency of the spirit of mono • poly, the transition of the English policy towards a liberal series of mercantile enactments is most pro pitious. Nothing now remains to be done to transfer the Ministerial measure from the tables of Parliament to the leaves of the statute-book but a third reading in the Lower House, a rapid passage through the House of Peers, of which no doubt now remains in existence, and, thirdly, the Je-le-veux of our most gracious SOVEREIGN. Our reasons for feeling thus confident of the accep tation of the Sugar Duties' Bill are of the simplest description. We are not sanguine upon false pre mises—our hopes are assured by our judgment. First, as to the sanction of her MAJESTY, no moral doubt can exist in the mind either of the most sanguine pro tectionist or of the most nervous free-trader. It would be ingratitude for what has already received the approbation of our QUEEN—it would be super fluous after the disposition she has evinced throughout her reign, after the liberal policy which she has invariably encou raged and countenanced, after her acquiescence in the clauses of the Corn and Customs' Bills, after her be haviour during the changes of November and Decem ber, and after summoning Lord JOHN RUSSELL to the head of affairs with so much of gracious alacrity and confidence—it would, we say, be both superflu ous and ungrateful after all this to dilate upon the probability of her MAJESTY'S sanction to the proposed measures. And equally superfluous and almost equally ungrateful would it be to endeavour to prove the chance of success to those measures in the Commons, when we remember that they have already proceeded so far through that as sembly, and been approved by a gigantic majority of one hundred and thirty. The only possibility, therefore, of failure would remain with the Right Hun. Members of the Upper House, and that the Bill will be carried triumphantly, but quietly, through that august body, there is now an absolute cer tainty. No opposition of a substantial character will be raised by the agricultural aristocracy; the House will not even be pressed to a division. This has actually been resolved upon by those legislators themselves, in solemn conclave assembled. And the announcement is thus made by our Contemporary the Morning Post : " A meeting of Conservative Peers took place yesterday at the residence of Lord Stanley, in St. James's-square, for the purpose of considering the course which ought to be pur sued in the House of Lords with respect to the Sugar Duties' Bill. We understand that there was but one opinion among the Peers present as to the measure, which has excited the greatest disapprobation, both as regards the injustice to be done to our colonies, and the deplorable stimulus which will be given to the slave trade by the proposed scale of duties becoming law. At the same time it was unanimously re solved that at this late period of the session the question ought not to be carried to a division, however strongly Lord Stanley and other Noble Lords may think it necessary on the introduction of the measure to the House of Lords to place their own sentiments on the subject, and those of the party generally, before the country." Assuredly, after such a conclusion of such a deli beration, no further doubt can remain of the decisive victory of these measures ! The present glorious session will be terminated thus gloriously. The nail has already been driven in, it will now be clenched. Some among the worshippers of monopoly had flattered themselves with the possi bility of defeat to the proposers of an alteration in the sugar duties. They pictured to themselves an analogy between the position of the free-traders under PEEL and RUSSELL, and the fable of the horse and the mule. The salt melted away in passing the stream, the spunge absorbed so much water in its transit, that the bearer and itself foundered. The Protectionists fondly augured a realisation of this fable; they conceived that though the sack of corn had been carried through a turbulent opposition, the sack of sugar might still be swallowed up in the current, and its supporter himself be lost in the catastrophe. Their imaginations have proved illusory ; according to their own showing their expec tations have turned out to be delusions. Free trade as a great national principle is therefore consolidated. Monopoly is gasping in its final agonies ; and, looking at its dinners, its meetings, its toasts, its Parliamentary orations, its protests, its sarcasms, and its vituperations, it dies like the dolphin —with a variety of very brilliant and very evanescent cdlours. Like the dolphin, monopoly has thrown itself into many strange contortions during its existence—like the dolphin, it is most beautiful in its death. With the completion of this session protection will become a byword in the language. At no period of time has England been in a more peaceful state in her relations with foreign Powers than she happily is at the present moment. Every thing presents a prospect of the most profound tran quillity. The political atmosphere is free from the slightest cloud, and we may hope that grim-visaged war will long be a stranger to our shores, that we may cultivate the arts of peace, and devote our great resources to the furtherance of our commer cial and mercantile prosperity, the attain ment of those blessings for the universe, the whole family of mankind, which can only be at tempted under such propituous circumstances. Every man may rest under his own vine and his fig-tree ; but the experience of past ages has taught us that if we are desirous of the long-continued enjoyment of this great national blessing, we must not convert our swords into ploughshares. We must retain the former as trusty and well-tried friends at our side. Having them in our possession ready for immediate use, will, in all human probability, dispense with the necessity of having recourse thereto. We should be— " Ready, aye ready for the field." And our being so will afford the best guarantee that a war will not be forced upon us, or only avoided at the expense of the national honour. In such a state of preparation, we can assume an attitude at once temperate and firm, ready to do anything be coming a mighty nation to avoid so fearful an alternative, to preserve that peace so justly and so highly prized, but still to defend the rights and interests of our country, to avoid unwise or dis honourable concession. While we do so there is little danger that our efforts to avoid war will be ascribed to timidity, cowardice, or any other unworthy motive, and England will still maintain the proud position she has assumed amongst the nations of the earth. This season of tranquillity, then, is the time of all others that we can place ourselves in that state of prepara tion, without exciting the jealousy of other powers, or calling forth remonstrances from them. It is not by a present increase of our naval and military force that this object is to be achieved, but by a proper organisation, a comprehensive and well-considered system, by which we should be enabled without delay to preserve the services of well-trained and hardy men, who would have such encouragement held out to them that they would gladly enter into the service of their country at a moment's notice, and think that they had attained a most desirable object in being received therein. We should, in the language of the Secretary of the Admiralty, by the adoption of a judicious system, collect and recal those elements of strength now scattered over the whole globe. We should so far improve the condition and mode of treatment of our gallant sailors, that they would no longer be under the necessity or temptation of seeking from other countries that employment which cannot be obtained in their own, or which, if ob tained, is either inadequately remunerated, or subjected to such painful and degrading conditions, and incidents, that few independent men with minds at all elevated will consent, to accept it. In our columns this day will be found a letter from a cap• tain in the royal navy, to which we invite the atten • tion of our readers. His first statement, that events equally unprovoked and unforeseen have occurred within the last ten years to bring England to the verge of war, and her want of preparation, is fully cor roborated by what was stated by the Secretary for the Admiralty, in bringing forward the naval estimate s on the 24th ultimo, " That it would be both unsafe and unwise, he believed it would be dishonourable, for England again to run the risk she hadt twice done to during the last five years, from an unwillingness increase their naval establishment, when any sudden rupture here, or on the other side of the Atlantic, would have found us unprepared." Surely such a state of things cannot be suffered to continue; there is no degree of expenditure within our means that should not gladly be encountered to prevent the possibility of such a recurrence. Our wooden walls have ever afforded protection to Britons ' and kept enemies at a distance from our shores. The prosperity of England has principally arisen I from her maritime superiority ; and we should not suffer any unwise economy or paltry saving to endanger the British flag. We should recollect that of late years a mighty element, hifterto little, if at all, known; certainly not made 'use of in any of our former contests, has arisen, that a a mighty change will be thereby effected in naval tactics and naval discipline, that the very discovery will prevent the possibility of defending our shores from attack, by blockading the hostile fleet—that a steam navy affords the greatest possible facility to attack, far more than proportionate to its advantages as a defensive armament ; and we must not be content to let things remain in statu quo, or, to use the antiquated and oft-repeated argument, that such things were sufficient for our fathers, and that therefore they may satisfy their children. We must keep up to the spirit of the times, and avail ourselves to the fullest extent of every new improvement. The tradesman or manu facturer who will be contented with his old tools or machinery, while his competitors avail themselves of new facilities, will speedily sink into bankruptcy and ruin. So the country that remains inactive and dor mant must be satisfied to sink in the scale of nations. We must guard against such a calamity happening to our fatherland. One of the most important considerations, as we have already said, at the present moment is to obtain a means of speedily manning our fleet without being obliged to have resource to the palpably unjust, the atrocious system of impressment—a system so vile that its strongest advocates have never been enabled to utter one word in its defence, to justify its use, save on the tyrant's plea of necessity. It is hard to conceive what robbery, what abomination could not be supported on the same ground; the robber, the burglar, may say to his victim, " You have abundance, I am without ; it is necessary that I should have means of support, and therefore, having strength to do so, I take from you by violence what I want." It was on such a plea that slavery, with all its attendant horrors, was so long sanctioned in our colonies and spoken for in our Legislature—that man was permitted to kidnap his fellow-man and lead him into captivity and sorrow. We confess we cannot perceive the differ ence between a support of the slave-trade and the system of impressment, save that in one case the vic tim is of a different colour and climate, while in the other he is our fellow-subject, connected with us by all the ties that bind man to man, of common origin, of common language. The latter victim worships at the same altar with ourselves, and yet we unhesitatingly rob him of his liberty, drag him from home, relations, friends, and those with whom he is connected by still nearer and dearer ties—who are dependent on him fur support, and who, during his forced absence from home fur a long continued period, while exposing his life to all the vicissitudes of war or of climate for a scanty and inadequate remuneration, far from that which he could obtain if free in the merchant service— are left in comparative poverty an d destitution to pine for the return of the husband, the father, of n hose guardianship they are robbed by the Government that ought to protect its innocent subjects. Our space this day forbids a continuance en this topic, and it is far too important to be dismissed in a summary manner. We shall speedily return to its consideration. Prince METTERNICH, who is at the Chateau of Konigiwarth, expected a visit from the Emperor of AUSTRIA. and the King of PRUSSIA on the 30th. The affairs of Poland will, it is said, be discussed during the visit of the monarchs. The rejoicings at Rome on account of the amnesty, had terminated on the 28th. His Holiness PIUS IX. had MM. RENZI, GULETTI, and the other prin cipal amnestied prisoners introduced to him, and had a long interview with them of a touching character. A measure for the dis missal of the Swiss troops is under consideration The presence of an Austrian squadron at Ancona prevented any expression of feeling at that port, but throughout the rest of the Papal dominions the rejoicings and f6tes had been universal. At a secret consistory of Cardinals, held on the 27th, the POPE addressed to them the following allocation : " Venerable Brothers,—ln regarding for the first time at this place your noble assembly, and at the moment of ad dressing you, veneracle brothers, we again feel the emotion with which you saw us so powerfully agitated when by your very kind suffrages we were raised to the place of the Pontiff Gregory XVI., of glorious memory. The thought has pre sented itself to us, that a great number of cardinals known at home and abroad by their eminent talent and wisdom, by their experience in affairs, and by all kinds of virtues, could soothe the regret caused by the death of the Pontiff, whom God had just called to himself, and make us merit the honour of succeeding him ; and you, laying aside all the reasons of human wisdom, and considering only in the ardour of your zeal the Catholic Church lamenting its loss, have thought only of consoling and supporting it, so that by the union of your will, and not without a secret inspiration of Divine Providence after scarcely two days of conclave, ' elected us to the sovereign Pontificate, however unworthy, without doubt, particularly in these times so full of calamity for the Christian and civil republic. But we know that God, from time to time, manifests his power in the slightest things on earth, in order that men may attribute nothing to themselves, and render honour and glory only where it is due. It is thus, that venerating his inscrutable designs for our selves, we have relied on his celestial succour. But whilst we render, and shall always render, thanks first, as is just, to the Almighty God who has raised us, however unworthy, to the highest dignity, we also express our gratitude to . s ou, who, interpreters and ministers, have pronounced so honourable, although unmerited, a judgment upon our humility. We shall, therefore, never have anything more at heart than to show in an effectual manner the special zeal of our kindness towards you, allowing no oppor tunity to pass of maintaining and protecting the rights and dignity of your order, and of being agreeable to you in all that depends on us. As to you, we expect with confidence, from your affection, that you will assist us assiduously with your counsel, your support, and your zeal, in order that no affair, sacred or profane, may suffer de triment from our elevation. We are bound to labour toge ther in close union, to secure the welfare and glory of the Church, our common mother—to maintain, with a firm and persevering courage, the dignity of the apostolic see— and secure with all our care the tranquillity and mutual concord of the Christian flock, in order that, with the blessing of God, it may increase daily in merit and in number. Continue, then, as you have commenced, to deserve well of us, and let us together ask of God, by our daily prayers, that, chosen by him, we may walk in his way; and that, after having implored the succour of the blessed Virgin Mary, with the aid of the holy apostles Peter and Paul, we may obtain, by the most fervent prayers, from Jesus, the supreme author of our religion and our apostolate, the grace of a favourable regard cast upon us from the holy bill of Sion, and that he may approve of the transports of joy of a people devoted to his glory, in order to render salutary and happy all our acts and all our efforts for the universal Church confided to our care, and for the people subjected to our power." Madrid papers to the 31st ult. have arrived. According to the Heraldo the QUEEN had intended to grant an amnesty on the occasion of her mother's birthday, but had delayed its publication in conse quence of the conspiracy at Pampeluna, and the attitude assumed by the refugees in Portugal. A man had been arrested at Barcelona charged with having entered the city for the purpose of killing Gen eral BRETON. MADRID BOLSA, JULY 31.—The Three per Cents, were done at 34 for cash ; the Five per Cents., at 221 ; and the Passives, at G. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. The Ministerial victory is complete. The returns are known in all cases, except 37, and should those 37 be all in favour of the Opposition, the Ministers would have a working majority. The Ministerialist return already exceeds a moiety of the Chamber by 33, and their actual majority over the Opposition is 104. There have been 90 new Members returned ; among them are the Marquis de la Valette and M. Blanqui, the celebrated political economist. At Toulouse, in consequence of the election of the Abbe DE GENOUDE, there was some rioting, and cries of Vive Henri V. were heard—the police, however, arrested some of the rioters, and order was speedily restored. At Montpelier, too, there was a partial emeute in consequence of the defeat of M. LARCY by M. REINAUD. The mob made an attempt to carry off the ballot-box, and the civil authorities sent for the military to protect them. In the evening there was a riot at the Prefecture, and cries of A bas le Parfet, A bas IVI. Reinaud, were uttered. The ring leader was arrested, and the mob was dispersed. There was some disturbance at Perpignan, which was soon put down, and at Vinca, where the civil authorities were set at defiance, a battalion of in fantry and a detachment of chasseurs had restored order. The Duc DE BROGLIE has been invited to be pre sent at a Cabinet Council at Eu, for the purpose, it is rumoured, of being offered the Presidency of the Council, as Marshal SOULT has determined to retire. Other accounts state that the Presidency will be conferred on M. GUIZOT. The regicide HENRY remains incarcerated at the Conciergerie, and is interrogated every day. He states he purchased the pistols of a dealer nn the Quai des Massageries, but refuses to give any positive 'THA SUN, LONDON, PRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 'I, 1846, answer as to the nature of the charge put into the pistols. In his first declaration he said that they were loaded with slugs, which he had made himself, but he refused to say of what metal they were made, adding, that, in all probability, they would be found, when if shown to him he could rea• dily recognise them, but until then it would he use less to enter into any further details. The prisoner continues perfectly calm and composed. He enters into conversation with his keepers, and appears to look with impatience to the hour for his meals, which he takes with a good appetite, and he sleeps well. The heat had become almost intolerable in Paris. On Tuesday the thermometer (Farenheit) marked 871 degrees; on Wednesday 95i. " We have received from Pontanion," says the Constitutionnel— " Some information of rather a strange nature. We have been told that three Englishmen, sentenced last year by the first Cuuncil of War, sitting at Papieti (Otaheite), to ten years' hard labour, and confined during six weeks in the bagne of Brest, had been hastily removed from it on the 25th of July, and conveyed to Pontanion. It was stated that they were released in consequence of a letter written by one of thin to his ambassador in Paris, who had been instructed by his Government to expostulate upon the condemnation of his countrymen by a French court-martial, sitting in a country which England did not consider placed under the authority of France. We are the more inclined to credit this supposi tion, as an order was lately received to take off the chains and the convict dress which these men had brought with them to Pontanion. This looks very like another Pritchard affair."

We have received New Zealand papers to the 15th March inclusive. It appears from these that Governor Grey had returned from the Bay of Islands, where he had effectually subdued and brought to submission Heke and Kawiti. The two rebel chiefs throw them• selves wholly on the mercy of his Excellency, resigning all their lands, leaving it entirely to him to dictate the terms on which peace and order are to be re-established at the northern part of the Island. It is said that Governor Grey does not intend to deprive 'lan and Kawiti of their lands, or to make them an appendage to the British Crown. The chief Nene, who had been received as a mediator in the matter returns forthwith to the Bay of Islands, and the blockade is to be at once removal, and the ports opened, and the customs re established. The following extracts show the state of affairs in the other parts of the colony : (From the New Zealand Spectator cf Feb. 25.) On Monday Mr. Sr. Hill, the police magistrate, went over to the Hutt district, in obedience to the instruc tions of his Excellency, to put the settlers in possession of the land, but they were immediately driven back by the natives, and it was evident that an armed demon stration, and perhaps the employment of force, would be absolutely necessary to compel these natives to sub= mission. Accordingly a body of troops, amounting to 340 men, under the command of Lieu , enant-Colonel Hulme, left Wellington at five o'clock on Tuesday morning, and arrived at the Hutt bridge at eight o'clock, where they remained while a message was sent to Kaparetehau, the chief who has been acting under the directions of Rangihaeata, intimating the Go vernor's desire to see him. His Excellency find ing any attempt to procure an interview with this chief Fruitless, the troops were ordered to advance to the dis puted ground, and they crossed the Hutt by the ford near Mr. Boulcott's barn, and encamped in a large Maori potato-field, a short distance above Mr. Boulcott's section. The Afaories immediately retired before the troops, and their numbers were rapidly thinned by the desertion of Taringa Kuri, and others who had no inten tion of offering any serious opposition, but who desired to try if the Government were in earnest. Towards the evening the natives retired to the hills, and left the troops in possession of the Valley of the Hutt, so that it was considered unnecessary to keep so large a force there, and on Thursday morning a part of the troops re turned to Wellington, leaving about two hundred men in possession of the disputed land. The na tives expelled from the Valley of the Hutt were a small branch of the Ngatiawa tribe, called the Ngatitarna, headed by Taringa Kuri, one of the parties to the deed of sale to the New Zealand Company, a large party of vagrants from Wanganui, under E. Maka, who had left that place in consequence of adultery with another chief's wife, and the Ngatirangatahi. These last came originally from the upper part of the Wanganui river to Porirua. The head men amongst them were Kaparetehau, commonly called E Pare, E Moro, Te Kohera, Te Arihi, Papa Ahuapa, Bore, Te Atuta, and Kakaherea. They were all present at, and took part in, the sale of this district to the New Zealand Company in 1839. They were also at the Wairau massacre, where the two first were amongst the most active and ferocious, and where Atuta was killed. Kakaherea died at Porirua in 1844, and the rest, immediately after the Wairau massacre, usurped land on the banks of the Hutt, under Rangihaeta's sanction, and have continued ever since to molest and despoil the settlers with impunity up to the time of their expulsion by the troops on Wednesday last. That they had no title to the land is confessed by Taringa Kuri, who, in his evidence beore Mr. Spain's court, expressly admits that these chiefs were all present at the original sale of the land to Colonel Wakefield, that this was part of the land, and that they sold it for fear of Rauparaha and Watanui. The land has since been bought again by Captain Fitzroy, with the Company's money, but it re mained for our present Governor to do justice to the settlers by putting them in possession of the land, and driving away the horde of robbers and murderers to whose exactions they have been so long exposed. It was left for Captain Grey to assure to the "distressed settlers in Cook's Straits" protection to life and pro perty. _ (From the New Zealand Spectator of the 21st February.) We understand that his Excellency proceeds on Tues day next in her Majesty's steamer Driver to Wanganui, for the purpose of settling with the natives of that district all questions and disputes connected with the land claims, and of putting the settlers in possession of their land. The natives will have their reserves pointed out to them, and after the necessary arrangements are all completed, the compensation money will be for warded to Wanganui, for distribution among them. His Excellency will then visit Nelson and New Ply mouth to settle all questions connected with the laud claims in those districts, and will afterwards return to Wellington. It is supposed his Excellency's visit to the other settlements in Cook's Straits will occupy about three weeks. We believe Mrs. Grey will not accom pany his Excellency. (From the New Zealand Spectator of March 13.) RANCITIAEATA.—Some persons who have just arrived from the coast state that 200 armed natives, from Taupo, have joined Rangihaeata, and the settlers at Manawatu are very apprehensive that, in the event of an engage ment between the troops and the natives, this chief will make reprisals, and endeavour to cut off the outsettlers. On Thursday (three days only after the Governor's visit to Porirua) news arrived that Rangihaeata threatened to stop Mr. Skipwith's sheep, and to kill them if the persons in charge of them attempted to drive them be yond Porirua. It is plain that very little reliance can be placed in Rangihaeata's professions of peace ; he is evidently temporizing and watching the course of events, and waiting for some favourable opportunity of which he may take advantage ; as long as he is permitted to re main at large, he will always be a source of annoyance and trouble to the settlers. The Ford Abbey estate, which our readers will remember was sold by George Robins a few weeks since to the Rev. Mr. Lawrence Gwynne, of Teignmouth, for 52,000 guineas, is, we perceive, most unexpectedly again in the market. The advertisement explains the why and the wherefore; at all events, it will afford an opportunity to the Catholic body, who delayed arriving at a favourable conclu sion in time for the last auction, to repair the mischief they then encountered. It is beyond all doubt the finest monastery throughout England, and, with its splendid demesne, was estimated the other day at 70,000 guineas, so that the possiblity is, that at the approaching sale (which must be a peremptory one) it will sell higher than to Mr. Gwynne ; but we say" nuns verrons." ALARMING FIRE AT POPLAR —On Thursday night, about eight o'clock, some alarm was created at Poplar, through the outbreak of a fire upon the premises belonging to Sir Charles Price and Co., seed-crushers and oil mer chants, situate at Millwall. It commenced in the boiling house, a detached building, but near the tar stores. The boiling over of a copper of oil, it is presumed, was the cause. The intelligence was promptly forwarded to the engine sta tions, and very speedily the several engines of the London essablishment and the West of England Company arrived. I'revious to their arrival near 150 gallons of oil and several puncheons, together with some other articles of stock, were in a blaze. By ten o'clock the firemen arid workmen hap pily succeeded in extinguishing the fire, but not before a considerable quantity of the stock was destroyed. We un derstand that the property was insured in the Imperial and West of England Insurance Companies. a b ou on t DESCENT OF THE NASSAU FIRE BALL OON.—Ever y person acquainted with th e en t er prising exertions of Mr. C.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yei , terday were 60,000 to 70,000 bales. American sorts ranged from 4d. to .5!/;d. per Ib.—Shares were not so lively. I We have been favoured with a file of the Arcw Zealand Spectator, which bears date as late as the 14th March last. They notice several events which, as far as the colony is concerned, are of interest. From a statement made of the assets and liabilities of the Colonial Treasury of New Zealand, it appears that the liabilities amounted on the 15th November to 53,9391. 13s. 2d., and the assets to 4991. 9s. ld. The amount of specie in the Treasury chest was but 2271. 9s. Id., and taking bad and doubtful debts off, there was the considerable amount of 4401. 4s. ld., to be provided for. In the three quarters ending September, 1845, the sale of Crown Lands had only produced 2271. 7s. 2d. It must be admitted that, notwithstanding the Parliamen tary grant, the revenue accounts of the colony are in a very indifferent position. The contention with respect to the Govern ment grants ofland were still kept up, and it is affirmed that they have to a very considerable extent. crippled the power of the Government. Indeed, it is asserted that the confirmation by Lord Stanley of the purchases under Captain Fitzroy's penny-au-acre proclamation would, as far as Auckland is concerned, tend to prevent immigration in that district. We cannot, however, believe the assertion hazarded that the Government had become powerless in that district. A pro clamation had been issued by the Governor putting an end to martial law. It would appear that a very fair amount of business is doing in the markets of New Zealand. Lamb's wool was freely taken at Is. 4d. per lb.—a good price for the produce of the colony. In imports a considerable amount of business was done. Freights were in demand at from 41. to 61. per ton. From another source we learn that more than thirty fami lies, settled in the valley of the Huth, had been driven from their houses by armed natives, that their crops had been in jured, and much property plundered. There was, however, but little personal violence. The military had punished the offenders, but not much of the property had been restored. In the Consol Market there have been but a very few pur chases made this morning. For the Account the only prices have been 96; and for Money, 95% %. The premium upon Exchequer-bills is lower-7s. being now the only price. A purchase has been made in Bank Stock at 209 1 4 ; and In dia Stock is firm, at a rise from 260 1 / 2 to 262. The New Five per Cent. Annuities are at 121. In the Foreign Stock Market the principal feature has been a fall of from 3 to 4 per cent. in the Portuguese Bonds, in consequence of some very heavy sales, said to amount to about 25,000/. or 30,0001. of the Four per Cents. The present price is from 38 to 40. Spanish Consols for the Account re mains at about 2G ; the Three per Cents. at 36 • Mexicans have rallied to 25 ; but the Brazilian Bonds are heavy at 88. The Railway Share Market is firm this morning. There is a very good demand for East India Scrip, of which consi derable amounts have been taken within the last few days.

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY. The arrivals of English Wheat for our market since Monday have been on a very moderate scale, and the show of samples of that article to-day was small ; still, however, owing to the prevailing fins eather, the demand was exceedingly heavy, at almost nominal currencies. Nearly 12,000 quarters of foreign Wheat have come to band. All descriptions were a mere drug, but not cheaper. We had a limited quantity of Barley on offer, yet the sale for it, as well as Malt, was excessively dull, at barely late rates, and a clearance was not effected. Very large quantities of foreign Oats, viz., 23,410 quarters, have reached us. Thislcaused: the Oat trade to rule dull, and prices to have a downward tendency. , Beans, Peas, and Flour, as last quoted. ARRIVALS. Barlay. I Batt 1 Flour. 100 qrs. 370 qrs.

SMITHFIELD. 11,670 Our market was somewhat heavily supplied with'Beasts, both as respects number and quality. The demand for that description of stock was, therefore, in a very inactive state, at barely, but at no thing quotable beneath, last week's prices. There were on offer 240 Beasts, 430 Sheep and Lambs, and 34 Calves from Holland. The numbers of Sheep were not to say extensive ; while the Mutton trade was tolerably firm, at full currencies. In Lambs—the supply of which was good —a fair amount of business was doing, at late rates. With Calves, owing to the large supply offering, the trade was very dull, and the quotations had a downward tendency. The sale for Pigs was heavy, at late rates. Milch Cows moved off hea- Nib*, at from 16/ to 191 each, including their Small Calf CSuckling Calves, 18s to 29s ; and (master-old Store Pigs, 16s to 19s each.

Favourable accounts still continue to be received from nearly, or quite, the whole of the Hop districts, owing to which the demand hero is exceeding heavy, and prices are not supported.

An agreement having been entered into between the promoters of this:Bill and the Manchester and Leeds Company, by the insertion of a clause with which bpth parties were satisfied, the opposition of all the petitioners was withdrawn, the Committee decided that the preamble of the Bill was proved, and the Chairman stated that he would report to the House accordingly. OLDHAM, =atm ESTEIZI LIVERPO OL, AND BIRKENHEAD =NOTION. The CHAIRMAN said, that as the'tratlic proved to exist on the last line would apply to the present, he did not think it would to neces sary to give any evidence on that head. Mr. Sergeant Waawmax4 then opened the case for the Bill. He said it wai promoted and opposed by the same parties as the preceding Bill. It was intended by the promoters to construct a line from Old ham to Manchester to join with the Manchester and Birkenhead Railway, and consequently opening a direct communication between Oldham and Manchester, as well as between Oldham and the docks at Birkenhead. The length of the line was 7 miles 38 chains, and the estimated cast 480,000/. A letter from Naples states that the Princess d'Aquila TM safely delivered on the 22d ult. of a Prince. SECONDARIES'.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary JAatEs.) MORTLMER V. STYLES. This was an action to recover the sum of 134 10e. on an " 1.0. U." The defendant pleaded that he was never indebted, on which a point was raised. On the part of the plaintiff the " 1.0. U." was put in, and proved to be in the defendant's hard-writing. The jury thereupon gave a verdict for the plaintiff. The defendant, who was present, said it was a very hard case upon him, for although he certainly had had the money, the defendant owed him 601. The SECONDARY said that that ought to have been pleaded as a set off or satisfaction. The defendant said he left it all to his lawyer, who had now left the Court. The SECONDARY said, the defendant, if his story was cor rect, had been ill-advised by his attorney ; but the jury could not have returned any other verdict upon the evidence, and indeed, by the forms of law, no proof of a larger sum being due could be admitted under the plea that defendant was never indebted. Some of the jury said the law was open to all, and no doubt a jury would decide in his favour in an action against hi: attorney. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY.-(THIS DAY.) This morning the first meeting of the proprietors of the above Company was held at the Euston Hotel, Euston square. Mr. Glynn took the chair at twelve o'clock. The SECRETARY ( Mr. Booth) having read the notice call ing together the proprietors for the purpose of declaring a dividend; appointing auditors and fixing the amount of re muneration to be given to auditors, directors, and commit teemen ; for authorising the raising of money by new shares and by loans; and for the conversion and consolidation of shares into the general stock, The CHAIRMAN said—Gentlemen, from the notice which has just been read to you, and from the unusual course of commencing business, you will perceive that we are about to hold the first meeting of the London and North-Western Railway Company. It is to us a matter of unmixed satis faction to see you convened together under that title under the recently passed Act ; for although, on the part of my col leagues and myself, I can say that we have always received much gratification in meeting the proprietors of the London and Birmingham Railway Company, and which we have left under its own name in a very prosperous state, it is more satisfactory tons that the measure which we have all advo cated for some time past has received the royal assent. No words are necessary on the subject, for the approval which the measure ITas from time to time received from the proprietaries at both ends of the line, and at Liverpool and Manchester, speaks enough on the subject. The project arose as a matt( r of course, and, as regards the Grand Junc tion Railway Company, the only wonder which can be ex pressed is, that they did not take up the Bill at an earlier period. t was the intention of the promoters to carry on the concern jointly; but you all know the difficulties which the directors and proprietors would experience in not being able to carry on these two great undertakings It is impossible for us yet to represent to you its full effect as regards your interest, and the interest of the public, which may result from this amalgamation. We shall not forget that we have great interests to deal with in providing for the mercantile wants of Liverpool and Manchester. It is unnecessary to carry out before you to the full extent the ad vantage likely to result from the amalgamation itself. As three separate and large bodies, acting on three different systems, it might be impossible for us to move suffi ciently quickly in adjusting the present system now before you. We expect very important results from that which we have undertaken. It is a source of congratulation to us that the measure will be carried out to its full extent, and we have great satisfaction in finding ourselves so closely connected with those to whom we must look up to as the promoters of railway projects--who, during the time when the first propositions with regard to railways were received with scorn and sneers—when Parliament took a line of conduct against their introduction—when the money-market was in a gloomy and depressed state, car ried out the railway to Liverpool, the foundation of the schemes which have since been proposed. I feel that I have occupied the chair improperly OR this occasion in the presence of Mr. Lawrence, who was mainly instrumental in carrying out the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. It is rumoured (but I can hardly give any credit to such a report) —it is rumoured that those companies which have hitherto been successful in their results are likely soon to be brought under the notice of Parliament, to show to the public what is called the enormous profits supposed to be derived from some of the railway companies. It is not in this room, or in the presence of the proprietors of the London and North-Western Railway, that I can deny the existence of large profits. They are the pro fits from a great undertaking—from a great experiment which we have tried, and successfully tried. With regard to the London and Birmingham Railway, it is stated that it is with regard to the creation of new shares ; that is the point upon which we are likely to be brought under the notice of the House, and I say, that when we were forced by the great increase of our outlay—by the estimates far exceeding what was anticipated—when we were driven to Parliament to raise money to complete our works—the subject under went a long investigation before a Select Committee, and we were ordered to allocate our shares to the proprietors at par. We do not complain of it—it was an act of justice. We ask for no new privileges; our calculations of traffic were based on the most accurate investigation. It was not fair to be called on to double our capital, but having done so, to whom ought the benefit to be given, if any benefit arose? It was to be to those who invested money in the undertaking in the first instance, for if the shares had not been offered to the proprietors at the earliest moment, the undertaking would have lingered in an inactive state, as the money-market at that period was in a state of gloom; and if it had not been for the untiring energy of the proprietors, it would have been a failure altogether. It is too hard, therefore, to be called on to account for profits which, however large they may be, are circulated over the whole country. Because our shares have risen and been increased, it is invidious to hold us up as having sacked large profits. lam very anxious not to occupy your time unnecessarily on this occasion, and as a report of some length is prepared, you would rather refer to that for further information with regard to this concern; but it will be expected from sue to say one word or two about the different schemes which we have from time to time submitted for your approval and brought before Parliament. Our success in Parliament this year has been of a chequered character, as ; far as the London and Birmingham is concerned. We have lost several very important measures. We have lost, in the inquiries before Parliament this session, all those mea sures which were designated to you as the Warwickshire branches, and, what is the worst part of the case, our opponents have carried the Birmingham and Oxford. The others have been of a secondary nature to that scheme—they were not of any great importance in themselves. We have lost the St. Albans and Luton branch, and we have withdrawn the Newport Pagnel. Altogether we have come out of Parliament fortified in our posi tion. During the discussion this present session we have profited. Whether we look to the South-Western—the Direct Portsmouth having been carried against them—or if we look to Norfolk, where the London and York has been carried, or to Scotland, the principle of competition is laid down. The Oxford and Bir mingham is carried against us, on the principle of competition. Though that principle has been generally adopted this session, and will most probably be so next ses sion, it has not altered our views on the general merits of the question. I believe that the Legislature would have exercised a wise discretion if it had taken up the principle laid down by the Board of Trade, and not laid down the dangerous and impolitic doctrine of competition. But we must be prepared for it; we have no other argument for doing so than the fact, that what has been done this session has rendered our position infinitely more safe. We are in a position to carry on competition, and any company which commences against us must commence on a very large reduction of the present existing rates; for, though some companies are very low in their charges, there are very few nearly as low as we are, and only one in this metropolis is equally low. The prosecution of the several Bills which we have obtained will, of course, require an addition to our capital; and When I mention this, it is only right that I should point out to the proprietors that many of the Bills which we have secured this session are Bills more of a protective character than Bills from which we can expect any large return. We have been obliged to carry Bills for the improvement of the stations at Liverpool, Man chester, Birmingham, and London, and I cannot hold out any hope of any new return. The same observation applies to several Bills which the Grand Junction has ob tained. In what lam now about to say I speak only in my individual character, and I must not be understood as expressing the opinions of any of my colleagues. In looking forward under the large creation of stock which has recently taken place, it will be impossible for me to expect to keep up the present existing dividend. It has been the principle of the London and Birmingham directors never to conceal anything from their proprietors. It is right that I should make you acquainted with my own feelings on this subject. It will be some time before the new capital can be brought into operation, and it is impossible to know what events the intervening time may produce. Many of my colleagues are sanguine in their hopes that we may still keep up the existing dividend, but it is not so in Imy opinion. I. cannot mention to you the mode in which we propose to create the new capital; we do mean to make an immediate creation of London and North- Western Stock. I will not keep you many more minutes, because you will naturally be anxious to hear the most important document of the day read to you ; but I cannot resist, on the first time I address you under your new name, letting you know a vote which you will be called upon to pass, and to which your sanction will be asked. I may say that it is a debt of gratitude which you owe to your engineers. We have secured to the service of the amalgamated company the ser vices of Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Locke, who have individually served the two companies for a long time past. Gentlemen, although the amount I shall propose to you I cannot be considered anything at, all as equal to compensate the worth and merits of the indi viduals, yet I still think that you will receive with approbation the resolution which will be tendered to you with regard to them. It is a compliment quite unexpected, and will be received with great grati fication. fication. What I propose for your sanction is, a testimonial, in some shape or other, to the value f be presented to Mr. Stephenson and Mr. k With these remarks, I will now proceed to ask Mr. Booth to read the report, and it will be a source of satisfaction to me to be able afterwards to answer any questions that may be put to me. proceeding P our reporter left.)
