ADVLItTISER.—We little thought when, ten or twelve days ago, we began to urge on Lord John Russell the immediate opening of the ports to the admission of untaxed foreign corn, that our views would be so soon brought under the consideration of his Lordship by the resolutions adopted at great public meetings. Yet it is even so. Already has Dundee, one of the greatest com mercial towns in Scotland, memorialised the Russell Administration in favour of the free admission of foreign corn into our ports; and the example thus set by tee shrewd cad far-seeing yeople cf Dundee has promptly been followed by the great metropolis of mantes ctlires. Last night a great demonstration was to be trade by the moot influential men of Manchester in favour of the immediate and entire extinction of the duties on corn. The commercial opinion of Lancashire has raised its voice against any further attempt, in the present state of Ireland, to enforce the imposts on the ad misl:ion of foreign corn into our ports. Similar meetings are about to be held in the other populous towns of Eng land and Scotland. Right glad are we thus to find that we do not stand alone in our views on this point. There can no longer be any doubt of the success of the movement now making to unlock the ports of Great Britain to the admission of untaxed foreign corn. Between the cries for bread of the starving peasantry of Ireland, and the representations and entreaties of the most influential men in our large and most populous towns, it is impos sible that Lord John Russell can much longer persist in shutting our ports against the duty-free admission of corn from abroad. Ile is greatly to blame for having so long refused to adopt a course which was pointed out to him and pressed on his adoption both by humanity and sound policy. Had he caused an order in Council, throwing open the ports, to be published four or five weeks ago, we should not have heard of those alarming acts of violence, terminating in bloodshed and the loss of life, which have lately created so much dismay. We are unwilling to believe that, having hitherto re fused to open the ports, Lord John neseell can be fully alive to the extent of the evils under which Ire land is now groaning. Can the Noble Premier be aware that many have already died, literally died, in Ireland, solely from want of food ? Does he know that myriads of the poor peasantry are wasted to mere skeletons, and crawl about the streets and high roads under circum stances which cause them to bear a closer resemblance to death than to life ? Or, if hitherto ignorant of the state of matters in Ireland, will he receive instructions now ? What says the Archbishop of Tuam ? That Right Rev. Prelate opens a letter, which he has just addressed to Lord John on this very subject in these words : Short and rapid as is now the medium of communica tion, yet ere this brief letter shall meet your Lordship's eye, hundreds, I fear, of the suffering people of this dis trict will have fallen victims to the horrors of famine. This will assuredly be their melancholy fate, if not pro= vided with employment and with food. In another part of the Archbishop's brief letter he gives a painfully vivid description of the condition of the peasantry." The ques tion —tee pressing, the imperative question," says he, "is euout saving thel ives of famishing thousands. All the other speculations are unreasonable, nay, cruel, as long as the people are eagerly stretching out their hands, and in the name of humanity and of religion, crying out to be snatched from instant death. The existing famine baffles description, and epenaces the uprooting of all social order." Can representations like these, coming from such a quarter, be lost on the Premier? Will he, in the face of this frightful state of things, persist in his unwise and inhuman policy of keeping the ports shut against all fo reign corn on which a certain cmountof taxation is not paid? Does the Noble Lord know what he is about? Has the awful truth never flashed on his mind, that, by keeping up the imposts on the importation of foreign corn, he is actually making a merchandise of the lives of the Irish peasantry? Perish the Minister, and destruc tion to the Ministry, that have no ears to hear the groans of a starving people—no bowels of compas sion for those who are dying before their eyes. If public belief be well-grounded, Lord John Russell urges as the reason why he toes not at once order the ports to be thrown open, that the corn-law question was understood to be finally settled last session. Finally settled 1 Who said so ? Not the author of the measure. When Sir Robert Peel introduced his Corn law Repeal Bill, proposing that the imposts on human food should cease in three years, and that a certain modified sliding-scale should continue in operation in the interval, lie based the measure on the assumption that the three intervening harvests would_ be average harvests. The ex-Premier had no idea at the time, neither had any one else, that we sliculd, within three months after the passing of his measure, have a deficient corn-harvest, and that the calamity of an almost total destruction of the potatoe crop should befal Ireland. Had Sir Robert foreseen this, he woutd have made his measure one of total and immedate repeal—in which case the piercing cries of the Irish peasantry would not have been wafted across the Channel, nor would we have had to witness the appalling spectacle of hu man beings dying in scores for want of the means of subsistence. SPIRIT of the PUBLIk.; JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—How did it commence? Not on the 29th of August, but on the 29th of June—not with the courier who sped from Madrid to Neuilly, but with the mes senger who started from Osborne House to Wilton crescent. The system of Europe is shaken, Spain in sulted, and France and England estranged, not because of M. Bresson's midnight coup de main, but because of Lord Palmerston's accession to office. So says the Presse. Our clever French contemporary has promulgated a new and striking theory, deriving the present course of events, not precisely from the original antagonism of mind and matter after M. Michelet's famous doctrine, but from the hereditary policies of the two great Eng lish parties as developed under William and. Anne, and perpetuated to this very day. That of the Tories was to relinquish the Spanish throne to a Bourbon cadet, providing only against the union of the two crowns — that of the Whigs was to exclude the House of France altogether from the. Peninsula. The former policy triumphed at Utrecht, and has since remained the inter national law of Europa ; the latter, though momentarily expressed at the Hague in 1709, was finally demolished and proscribed in 1713, and is now anachronistically re produced by Lord Palmerston, who forgets that this policy, which he is thus shown to have inherited from Godolphin by a faithful and unbroken tradition, is not only obsolete, but actually condemned by that very treaty which he is now unwittingly quoting to support it. Who now will say that our party principles have changed, and that the names of. Whig and Tory are antiquated and useless ? Our contemporary knows better— " Et reditum Diomedis ab interitu Meleagri, Et gemino bellum Trojanum orditur ab ovo." It is bold to argue against the historical lore and political experience which looms in reserve behind the columns of our gallant adversary; nevertheless, we presume to state our conviction that this is an inaccurate chapter of the " Cours d'Histoire Moderne." If the scene lay in 1760 instead of 1713, we might have a little more hesi tation in giving such a venturous contradiction, for a good French historian used to assert that he alone was in possession of documents to show how the Treaty of Paris was extorted from Great Britain. We believe, however, that with regard to the Treaty of Utrecht and its times, the " Depot des Affaires Etrangires" does not contain much intelligence that is not known in England; and it is, therefore, without any great apprehension of being refuted, that we assert the non existence of any two such leading policies, characteristic of their respec tive parties, as our contemporary has laid down. There was during Queen Anne's reign a Whig party and a Tory party, it is true; and it is also true that the great point of the war of the alliance furnished each with dis tinctive sentiments. But it is altogether incorrect to state that the admission or negation of the French claims to the ,Spanish crown formed the characteristic fea ture of the foreign policy of either. The Whigs from first to last advocated the war, from a variety of concur rent motives irrespective of their views concerning French aggrandize nent; and the Tories, from opposite motives of a corresponding nature, advocated peace. The leading question with all English parties was the succession; nor was their foreign policy very deeply cared for excepting with reference to this. William, in forming the Grand Alliance, well knew that he was taking the only effectual measure to prevent the restora tion of the Stuarts—his object from personal and poli tical motives was the humiliation and depression of Louis XIV. The Spanish question chiefly affected Austria; and the barrier question the Dutch. As the war pro ceeded, and the genius of Marlborough placed the allies in a position beyond any that they could either have hoped or expected, their demands increased in a corre sponding proportion. We have before recorded our conviction that the principle on which the treaty of Utrecht was at last concluded, viz., that ..t,herin tro- crowns should neva i r oeired thence ie contradistinction to that introduced by the cupidity of Austria as the war so wonderfully prospered that the entire Spanish Monarchy should be restored to the House of Hapsburg ; and that Bolingbroke was fully warranted in reverting to it, had he done so in an honest spirit. But-the truth is, that for the most part of the time the Whigs would have prosecuted, and the Tories would have concluded, the war on almost any terms whatever. As long as France would make the least show of stand ing up to be struck at, Marlborough and Godolphin would have persevered in a course which secured them honour and glory among the people, aided that new class of fundholders who especially supported them, and strengthened the Protestant States of Holland against the aggressive bigotry of France. And thus at the pre liminary negotiations at the Hague in 1709, as well as in their resumption at Gertruydenberg in 1710, they willingly enforced the uttermost demands of Austria, and exacted from Louis something even beyond the aban donment of Spain. To this much—to the withdrawal of all assistance and countenance from his grandson —he assented ; he demurred only to a condition vwizh.i,ehthsaetehmeed should dertaed actually o u r s cl e er his to o n b e i arms n su t p o e rable expel his protege. This extreme policy, however, suggested by Austria, cannot, even b.) adoption, be correctly called the policy of the Whigs. The Whigs, truly so called, were at this time represented, not by the leaders of the Ministry, Marlborough and Godolphin, who, by the aid of the Duchess, managed the Queen, but by Sunderland and the Junta, who had been gradually struggling into the Cabinet. And though these noblemen did undoubt edly share the abstract predilection of their party for the war, yet the real war faction—the men who backed Austria in everything, and checked the peaceful aspi rations of the Dutch, were the Lord Treasurer and the Cominaudtr-in Chief. It was the resolution of Marlborough and Godolphin, not the policy of the English Whigs, which found a " momentary ex pression" in 1709, and es far as the political genius of these two could be inferred from original descent and early company, they were rather moderategoeies than true Whigs, excepting only that they did most inflexibly adhere to the war policy which gave them power and place. But, if the pedigree of the English Whigs has really preserved its continuity through the coup d all of Bute, is is certainly rather to be traced from Sundeeiand and Somers than from these two some what inconsistent politicians. In fact, during the con temporary negotiations at the Hague for the Berner Treaty, the real Whig portion of the Cabinet were willing that this compact should be concluded without exacting from the Dutch a stipulation that they would adhere to this entire exclusion of the Bourbons from Spain as a sine qua non of future peace, though Marl borough repeatedly wrote home to insist upon it, de claring that the Dutch, if left thus unfettered, would, as soon as they had got their barrier, leave Louis to do what he pleased at Madrid. So far was this demand from being peculiarly characteristic of the Whig policy during the reign of Queen Anne. CHRONICLE.—To pull down, in order to build up again from the foundation, is not the English method of effecting social improvements. We alter, enlarge, adapt; erdifferentrm; a l n ' dd a e l t e ll y; s e w but we rar e ly thi n k o f overt h row i ng w h a t h as long ex isted for the sa k e c f nove l ty , no ma t ter b ow com pl e te practical and mmansion symmetrical. fe fo n e i d in re a s g i t s y e e l styles is thethitsh the way many m ao nfy irregular ourof the advantages of a broader and more comprehensive great danger method, we at least avo id t h e of creating discord between the institutions and the habits of the nation. There cannot be a doubt that this • principle of wants of society require the improvements whi c h th e require to the ideas and feelings which • ' existing modes dlion show to be preval en t, mus t b e o b serve d b y ish statesmen in education a l as i n o th er reforms No one, for example, will be so absurd as t o pro pose the sweeping away all existing popular schools, in order to substitute others of a new and uniform pat tern. Such a revolution may be imagined, and even its details planned, by a solitary speculator here and there, or the notion may inflame the dialectic ardour of controversialists like Mr. Baines, of Leeds, who love the excitement of slaying their own giants ; but statesmen, and especially statesmen possessing the practical sagacity of Lord John Russell, will not involve themselves in the interminable embar rassments of attempting to legislate for education with out reference to what private zeal and public aid have already accomplished. There are numerous and im portant districts in England unprovided even with the school-buildings in which those of age to receive instruc tion could be accommodated. The number of localities is still greater in which, though schools nominally exist, the education or instruction given in them is worth no thing ; and the general character of popular schools in England, if they are tried by any reasonable standard of what they ought to effect,. is great and grievous ineffi ciency ; but still it is evident that with respect to the bulk of these schools, the aim of the reformer must be not to destroy but to improve. National schools, British schools, Wesleyan schools, Congregational schools, Scotch schools, Irish schools, have all been so long in operation as to have become established, and their active and attached supporters include nearly all the zealous friends of education of all creeds and parties in the empire. Important mo difications tending to greater union may be obtained in these schools, aiid wherever the opening exists, new schools upon a superior model may be established but in the main we must expect that schools now existing will continue, and the great and immediate object of the Legislature should be to promote their improvement by making provision for an adequate supply of efficient teachers. Effective means for the training of teachers, and such a provision for their support as will induce a sufficient number of qualified persons to embrace the profession, constitute, as it appears to us, the great prac tical reform which is at present required. Inspection, to prevent abuse and stimulate improvemeit, is of course essential, but does not involve any serious difficulty. If, however, we are to regard the educa tional agencies now at work as so far established that Parliament will rather think of prescribing new conditions to them, andsupplying their deficiencies, than of setting them wholly aside, a movement like that of the National Society to provide education in Wales, to which we alluded a week ago, becomes of great import ance; and those who wish to see education an instru ment of good to the whole people, and a means of bind ing and cementing the different classes together, are bound to examine closely the character of such a move ment before they lend it their assistance. It is of course the wish of the Welsh Education Committee to obtain as large and general a support as possible. In order to succeed amidst the divided population of Wales, they require all the aid which they can obtai n by divesting their system of every needless element of offence and exclusion. They are evidently f ully of aware the aid to be derived from supply of well-trained and • well-paid teachers will be their first object. Upon this point we need not dwell. They have not, however, put forward a similarly distinct assurance that the rights of D . • Welsh districts w ill Dissenting minorities in so far regarded as is implied in the exemption of Dissenting their parents children from religious may conscientiously object. Upon this p o i nt no doubt should be suffered to exist. The course whi c h is intended ou to be taken should be plainly stated.

Eleanor Herridge, a very ladylike female, about twenty years of age, whose family and connexions were stated to be highly respectable,was placed . at the bar on the charge of robbing her furnished lodgings. Mr. George Gogarty stated that he resided at 6, Southampton -street, Pentonrille, and about three weeks houses prisoner took ready furnished lodgings at his From certain circumstances which transpired . he was induced to examine her apartments last evening during her absence, when he found that a pair of blan ei.tst an en ame l printing, and other articles, had been men away.

When she did so she was in the expecase ta tion of getti ng more th an enoug h o f money to rele them, f rom her friends, who were in r espectable and subse quently in dependent circumstances. The property was discovered by the police at a pawnbroker's. The p r i soner , w ho wept bitterly, and seemed deeply of her position, declined making any defence beyond her statement to the prosecutor, and was COM ' • 3 ;01 MARLBRO'-STREWE-T i DAY Joseph Loder was charged this morning with robbing his master, and Benjamin Bellamy with receiving the stolen property, knowinc , it to be such. George Minter, upholsterer, 33, Gerard-street, Soho, said that the prisoner Loder was his apprentice, and having been informed that he had been robbing him, and disposing of the property to Bellamy, in the presence of his son he had asked him whether he knew Loder, or had ever had any transaction with him ; but he denied knowing him. He charged him positively with receiv ing the stolen articles, and he then admitted having made a purchase of Loder. The complainant wished to see the purchase, and Bellamy, after a good deal of shuffling and prevarication, consented to take him to his lodg ngs,i but havi ng b o th gone i nto Mr. Gold's shop, New-str ee t, where Bedarny is employed, th e atter give him the slip. Arter some running abo ut, Bellamy produced the bundle of Morocco and ,_n leather, 5 lbs. weight, worth 305., as the purchase had made of Loder; and a second bundle, worth 10s., Which he had purchased of him three months before. The complainant said these were the very pieces for 'which he had asked his apprentice the other day, and in co nsequence of the want of them had been obliged to give out whole skins for chair pads. Loder said he had sold nothing but what was his as a perquisite by the rules of the trade. Bellamy said he bought them under that belief, and proposed calling evidence to show the rules of the trade if time were given him. Mr. Minter denied its being the practice of the trade or his• shop, to carry off such pieces as those produced ; indeed, he had given orders that none should be taken away. arr. IhaDwicu said the question now before them Was the rule prevailing in the trade as to perquisites, and remanded the case until evidence could be produced on this head. EI;ITRIES FOR WEDNESDAY.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of October 13.) SUGAR.—To-day there was a large business transacted in West India Muscovado Sugar for the scale and pan, but merchants were compelled to accept former rates by private contract, even for the better kinds of yellow, as the supply is on the increase of all qualities ; at auction 125 hhds Barba does sold at the full value. REFINED.—To-day Refined goods were sold to a fair ex tent for home consumption, brown lumps according to qua lity at 61s to 635, and standard lumps at 63s 6d to 64s per cwt, but at these rates the refiners are desirous to sell. Crushed sugar for exportation is little wanted, and 33s is the value cf first quality. Mauainus.—For bright grocery descriptions a good de mand has been experienced, and the parcels disposed of pri vately were at previous rates, but inferior grey and brown kinds have been sparingly dealt in, although there are sellers upon previous reduced terms, and of these the supply yet chiefly consists. This afternoon at public sale 563 bags Mauritius were sold at the full worth. FOREIGN.—This afternoon at public sale 7 chests of white Bahia, duty paid, sold at 49s for middling, and 5 chests of brown at 40s 6d for low quality. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the public sales of Bengal Sugar consisted of 2,900 bags white Benares ,• the whole sold at the former value, but not above. Of Madras 6,585 bags were offered—brown and yellow sorts sold at rather lower rates, but strong yellow kinds fetched the full worth.

The value of common Congou cash is 8d to B%d, good common 9d to 9%d, and Pouchong low to fine 4d to 9d per lb ; even at these rates, and which are under the cost of importation, the trade only taking sufficient for their immediate wants; several parties are surprised at this, as the consumption is going on as large as ever. Green has met with more attention, and large parcels chiefly of the late arrivals have been sold in con sequence of merchants submitting to further reduced rates, and coming to the determination to sustain a loss by the im portation, especially on the lower sorts under Is per lb. The quantity of Tea upon which duty was paid at this port during the past week amounted to 508,7191b5. None at pre sent is declared for auction, but large parcels are expected.

Mr. Thomas Wyse had an interview with Lord John Russell yesterday. Dispatches were received yesterday at the Colonial office from the Governor of Malta. The approach of the accounts at the Stock Exchange causes some dulness in business. Already the dealers in the English market are preparing for their six weeks' settlement, and will be occupied with the payment of " differences" the next day or so. The foreign stock and share settlements follow on the 16th inst. ; so that the three arrangements will give the parties interested a good deal to do in the course of the week. No appre hension of a scarcity of money during the progress of these events is anticipated by the jobbers, who have now for the last month or two found abundance of accommo dation, at rates more than usually convenient to their necessities. HARTLEPOOL BRANCH OF THE GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND.—On Monday last General Pesley, the Go vernment Inspector of Railways, accompanied by James Allport, Esq., and other gentlemen connected with the York and Newcastle and Hartlepool Railways, proceeded to examine the new branch of railway that has recently been constructed, extending from Thinford-lane, which is about a mile and a quarter north of the Ferryhill sta tion, on to the Hartlepool Railway, which has recently been purchased by the York and Newcastle Railway Company, and will henceforth be called a branch of the last-mentioned railway. The branch will be opened for general traffic in a few days. THE AFFRAY ON THE NEWCASTLE AND BER WICK RAILWAY.—The coroner's inquest on the body of Daniel Hives, who was stabbed Lear Benton Park, on the line of the Newcastle and Berwick Railway, under circumstances already published in The Sun, was held on Monday last, at Long Benton, before Mr. Reed, coroner, when several witnesses were examined, but their evidence disclosed no additional facts. Captain Potts was the only person present besides the two pri soners, when the deceased a as stabbed, and his identifi cation was perfectly clear and satisfactory. There was no evidence of a previous quarrel between the deceased and the prisoners, but there had been frequent disputes between the English and Irish labourers employed on the line, and there seems little doubt this transaction was the result of them. The jury returned a verdict against George Matthews and John Hughes, the former as principal, and the latter as aiding and assisti ng . RAILWAYS, &c., DEPOSITS.—The Act of Parlia ment to amend the 1 and 2 Victoria, cap. 117, providing for the custody of certain moneys paid in pursuance of the standing orders of either House of Parliament, by subscribers to works or undertakings to be effected under the authority of Parliament, took effect on the 18th of June last, when it received the royal assent. In repeal ing the Act mentioned, it is specially provided that all sums paid under its provisions should be dealt with in all respects as if the present Act had not been passed. By the second clause authority is given to deposit, and by the next the manner of payment is stated ; and by the fourth deposits are to be invested. At the termina tion of the session of Parliament application, by petition, to the Court in the name of whose accountant-general the money was deposited, is to be presented, and the money paid out on the certificate of the Chairman or Speaker of either House that the petition or Bill was not allowed, or that the Act was passed. A DISGUSTING TRlCK.—Yesterday we were in formed by the s uperintendent of the Eastern Union line, that some fellow had amused himself by writing with a diamond obscene language upon the windows of several first class carriages travelling between Ipswich and Lon don. It has been found necessary to remove several of the panes of glass, which are very expensive. The company have offered a reward of 201. to any person who will give information of the party or parties impli cated. We earnestly trust that we may have the oppor tunity of publishing the name of the unmanly scoundrel that could be guilty of so disgraceful fizi act,—lpswich ,Express. Oatlands. B.M.

One, the Lord John Russell, on her passage from Leer to London, a day or two since, brought 88 casks of butter, 198 hams, 99 oxen and cows, and 40 sheep ; and the other, the Sir Robert Peel (her first voyage, we be lieve, under that appellation), the large number of 12,862 cheeses, 27 casks of butter, 683 bags of lard, 49 cows, six oxen, and 244 sheep, with various other arti cies, the production of Holland. CRUELTY TO AN INSANE PAUPER.—An adjourned Coroner's inquest was held on Monday at Havenhill, Suffolk, before Mr. Way man, on the body of John Webb, an old imbecile inmate of the Risborough Union Work house, who had died in the infirmary, and it was alleged that his death had been accelerated by cruelties practised on him by Abraham Slater, who attended him in the in firmary. The inquiry excited a great sensation, bat the result proved, that though the deceased had been treated with great cruelly, he had died from natural causes. It appeared that Slater is an old pauper aged seventy-six, and that he was employed in the infirmary as nurse with out receiving any remuneration or gratuity for attending the patients when living, but that he had a shilling for " doing" every dead man. The Coroner summed up at great length. The jury expressed a wish to retire, and having been absent about half an hour, they returned into Court, when the foreman declared the following to be their verdict:—" The verdict of the jury is Natural death,' but they cannot consider they have discharged their duty without wishing to record their horror and detestation of the cruel and inhuman treatment which it has been proved the deceased received from the nurse Slater ; that gross negligence has been exhibited by the late master in allowing such treatment to pass unnoticed and unreported to the board." ACCIDENTS ON THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. —Since the serious collision on the Cambridge line of the Eastern Counties Railway, noticed in this journal of Monday, two aocid.Ht2 of a more serious character, happening to a passenger and a truck train, occurred on Monday and yesterday, near the Broxbourne Junction of the Cambridge with the Hertford line. On Monday he quarter -past two up train, which should arrive in London at thirty-five minutes past three, started at its proper time, being driven by engine No. 68. On getting near the Broxbourne Junction, which has a sharp curve into the main line, the driver of the engine felt that the engine had gone off the line, and immediately, with the stoker, jumped off. The engine, tender, and a carriage break, in which was the guard, turned over, and rolled down the embankment into a pond, the guard being -lightly injured in the fall. Fortunately, the coupling irons snapped when the engine went off the line, by the suddenness of the shak e , and the carriages containin,, the passengers p rov identially were left s t an di ng on the li n e. After some delay another engine was sent down from Stratford station, by means of the electric commu nication to that place, and the passengers were forwarded to London. With regard to the other accident yester day, it appears that a ballast-engine, which preceded the quarter-past two train from Hertford, on arriving between Ware and St. Margaret's, ran into four trucks, which we re standing on the line, and which had been used for carrying materials for double rails, about to be laid down between Hertford and Broxbourne. The trucks were destroyed, and the line blocked up. The passengers, however, were forwarded by means of flies to Brox bourne, and by a Cambridge train, which ar r i ve d Oppor tunely, to their destinations. On Monday Colonel I' as ley proceeded to Bishop ease S o t t o , r t t h f e m de,oalliiisd nearentered thatinto an investigation of the cause morning, which was sati s f actorily provedplaceotno be entirely Saturday ae s FIRE THIS MORNING.--Shortly after four o ' c l oc k hr n o r u u gia l n an a e la ‘ r ‘ m ." - this o w m o or i n e i t n o g a , s t t h at e e nefeigeehebsotuerrheoaotidenoft log fire, which broke out on the premises of Mr. Pigott, known as the* Red Lion public-house, in Great NV ild street; but by the speedy arrival of the engines, together with a plentiful supply of water, the flames were princi pally confined to the premises in which the fire occurred. The flames at one time reached an alarming height, and threatened destruction to the surrounding crowded neigh bourhood. DEATH OF VISCOUNT ALLEN.—We have to an nounce the demise of the above Nobleman, who expi:•ed on the 21st ult., at Gibraltar, in the sixty-fourth year of his age.

Y. Candle bringing 47s to 47s 6d per cwt. For forward delivery the operations have been upon a large scale, and at stiffer rates. For home made prices may be considered as mode rate; the supply is less than it was. All other kinds have been much in request, and prices are still rising. Oms.—The market for Seal Oil has an improving appear ance; large purchases have been made, and further ad vanced rates are paid. None has been offered at auction.

Cocoa Nut is much wanted, and the parcels sold by private contract were at stif rates. Palm has been largely dealt in privately. In llap2sced Oil a good deal has been done. Olive has been in excellent request, and prices are very firm. PORTUGAL. CIRCULAR LETTER OF THE PRIME MINISTER OF POR TUGAL TO THE CIVIL GOVERNORS OF THE KINGDOM, ON THE APPROACHING GENERAL ELECTION OF THE CORTES. (Translation.) Mop Excellent Senhor,—A general election of Depu ties is going to take place under very extraordinary and difficult circumstances. The duties of Government are also difficult, and it is mine to recommend to your Ex cellency and all those who exercise authority in the Queen's name, an especial and faithful observance of all those duties. The representative system, the only one capable of realising and securing liberty, is yet new to us, and we are but little experienced in it. Factions, both in and out of power, have exerted themselves to vitiate and change it, [chiefly by preventing the right of Election from being exercised in full liberty, with that indepen dence and intelligence so necessary, and without which the constitutional system becomes absurd or deceptive. Faithful to these principles, and to the mission which her Majesty has pleased to confide to them, the Ministers have endeavoured to remedy these evils by submitting to the Queen the decree of the 27th of July last, which now supplies the want of electoral laws; and in order that it may produce the salutary effect which her Majesty desires, it is requisite that all public authorities, in their respective spheres, should engage, by a strict and severe maintenance of impartiality, to cause a rigid observance of the rules prescribed in that decree, and by abstaining from all interference i❑ the choice of in dividuals. This is always the duty of Government; but now perhaps more so than ever, for that harmless in fluence which with beneficent intentions it is lawful to use in ordinary causes- may now become suspected, whilst the remembrance is so recent of abuses and vio lences which other influences exercised. The Govern ment abstains, therefore, from the use of its own means— it does not solicit, much less require, of any subordinate authority to promote any individual candidate whatever, but considers as its candidate every upright, faithful, and intelligent man in the country, who is firm in his principles to the freedom of the monarchy, and who has supported them in every crisis without exaggerated exaltation. Those men of sense who do not proclaim one doctrine to-day, and support another to-morrow— who do not excite party passions in order to repress them afterwards, or to see succumb the cause they pre tend to maintain, by the very excess of their advocacy— these are the men whom the Government wishes to ob- fain the suffrages of the nation ; these will be its true representatives in love, in loyalty to the institutions of the charter, to the august dynasty which gave and re stored it to us, and to the Queen, in whose name it was given us, to regain it before all Europe by conquering, not only by the sword, but by the triumph of those principles with which we still desire to combat the in ternal and external enemies of our liberty and inde pendence. The Government, however, is not exclusive ; it de sires not, nor can it be so. Her Majesty the Queen Donna Maria 11. is Queen of all Portuguese, and all opinions have a right to be represented in the Cortes. But Government also has the right, and not only the right but the duty, to maintain those which it considers most favourable to the liberty and prosperity of the nation, to the maintenance of public order, and for the interest and glory of her Majesty's throne. It is incumbent on your Excellency, as chief of the administrative authority of your district—an authority entirely paternal, beneficent, and protective, to enlighten and instruct the minds of the electors ; to do all in your power that they may not be misled; to direct them, in tine, without interfering to govern them. It is her Majesty's pleasure, and I direct your :excel lency in her august name, to follow scrupulously these rules, and have them observed by those under your orders ; likewise that you will spare no pains nor en deavours to make the people know the true state of the country, and the nature of the trust to be confided to those who are to choose their representatives. That the indifference or condescension of some, the factious spirit of others, contemptible personal opposi tions, the hatred of factions, do nut blind the eyes of the electors to the true and sole object—the salvation and honour of the country, and to the credit of this great national movement, in which all parties united, and which hitherto has not been disgraced, it is proper to bear in mind that the whole social, political, and financial machine has been shaken by this effort. The Ministry have solicitously prepared and facilitated the mission of the Cortes ; they have already incurred great,. re sponsibility in the reforms and reductions they have made, and they are aware that much yet remains to be done; but the Cortes alone can fix on firm and solid bases the establishment of a system of justice and true order, and put an end to the constant reactions which for so many years have distressed us, consumed the re sources of the nation, and destroyed the elements of prosperity which a few years of tranquillity and peace in the observance of truly constitutional principles cannot fail to elicit. From the manner in which the future Cortes fulfil their duties depends, thereforo, .11 the credit of the national movempnr iti46, which Europe and all pos terity will designate as glorious or absurd, as loyal or factious, according to the term and conclusion it may have. _ _ _ _ The national voice, which called for the reform of some existing laws, and especially fur checking the abuse of laws, was heard and attended to by the guar dian benevolence of her Majesty the Queen, but that voice did not encourage subversive or extravagant prin ciples. The plan of the Government is the same, and it is this which the Cortes are called to unfold and con solidate. To revise the charter, so that its precepts may become more evident, and free from absurd and false interpreta tion, will be a new tribute to the revered memory of its august author, and the fulfilment of a wish and desire he often manifested. To reform the tributary laws so that the contributors may pay with the greatest equity and the least sacrifice possible. To make a strict revision of the number of persons in all public establishments, to fix it unalterably, and thus secure a progressive and safe increase of economy. To found the national credit on these bases, and to proscribe the system of fanciful credit—the ruin of public income and private fortunes. To give real protection to commerce and agriculture, by the construction of roads and ways of communication. To diffuse instruction amongst all classes, so that science may be spread by its practical application to the arts. To attend, above all, to the moral education of the people, by providing for this purposo the means of education and instruction of the clergy. To organise the public force, and simplify the admi nistrative and fiscal system. To regulate the qualifications for admission to public employments. Finally, to render effective the responsibility of all. These are the measures which the Ministry under stands the nation to desire ; these are what it undertakes, and the electors should keep them in view when choosing their representatives. The only support which the Ministry desires and solicits is that of deputies who sincerely profess, and apply their doctrines with intelli gence and gravity. Such men it desires for judges of what has been done, and for councillors and arbitrators of what is still to do. I trust your Excellency will be fully convinced of these truths, and make the right and loyal use of them which her Majesty desires, as this is the service which her Majesty will most highly appreciate. Be watchful that the access to the electoral urn may be free, easy, and safe for all electors without distinction, and that neither public force nor any private force do violence to their liberty. In the solemn meetings which the law directs to be held and authorises, do not allow the intervention as such of civil or judicial magistrates, much less of any military authority ; taking care, however, to preserve order and the laws, which you are bound to guard. Be careful likewise that the ecclesiastical authority interfere only to guide the minds (conscience) of the people. The law only calls the priests to the act of election as magistrates of the civil registry ; but by no means in their quality or religious office, which must ab stain from all interference in political strife. Finally, I request your Excellency to make known, through all yoar district the contents of this circular, and of the electoral law, which I sent you some time ago, accompanying them with your instructions to your de legates and subordinates, so that the action of the Go vernment may be unanimous and simultaneous in pro tecting the freedom of voting, in guaranteeing and illustrating it. May God preserve your Excellency. Palace of Belem, Sept. 19, 1846. (Signed) Puke DE PALMELLA. To his Excellency the Civil Governor of EXTORTION BY A TOLL COLLECTOR.—At Mary lebone Police-court, yesterday, William Butt, the col lector at the Pine Apple Gate, Edgware-road, was summoned for having exacted Gd. toll for a small four wheel chaise attached to the back of a cart load of furni ture. The toll-collector stood upon the law, which enacts that additional toll shall be paid for any "coach, chaise, or chair " fixed or tied to another vehicle. The magistrate said that the law indeed bore him out in ex acting toll for the child's carriage, and that the sum mons must be dismissed, though it was a Shylock kind of triumph of which the collector bad no reason to bast, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE rORTSMOITTTI, OCT. 13.—The St. Vincent, 120, was got into the harbour yesterday in the very nick of time, just at the top of high water, and as the tides ar". still n: ailing, and a strong northerly wind came on in the right, acrd still continues, it is evidstit that sh• could net ha - ve heen got in until the next, springs, It is- what is called close and rather dan , rerouss pilotaga, for had she grounded she must have been ruined, as it would have been almost impossible to have got her off until the in creased flow floated her. The broad pendant of Com modore Sir Francis Collier was not " struck at sunset last evening," nor did Sir Charles Ogle's flag take its place on board the St. Vincent to-day. The pendant is still flying (5 P.m.). The Acheron steam-vessel, Lieutenant commanding A. Dunlap, sailed for Ireland today to be under the orders of the Commissary-General. She also, like the Dasher, took a number of marines from this division, to be employed as occasion directs in the suppression of dis turbme,s, and as guards. _ _ The Powcrfel, 84, advance-ship, was brought from her moorings yestcrday alongside the yard, and has been un masted to-day. tier fore and mizenmast are to be ap propriated for the Vengeance. 84, which is ordQred to be prepared for commisior. The pendant was hoisted this morning on board the 13,1:idol-a, provision deplt, by Mr. Peter Wellington, Master Commanding. The Blazer steam-ve..:;el, under the temporary com mand of her First-Lieutenant, Wingrove, arrived here at -nuon to-tLy, from Harwich, to take on board marines, and proceed to Ireland, to be (mployed in a similar way to the Dasher and Acheron. Captain Washington was left at Harwich to complete his charts of survey. The Comet steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commanding Charles R. Johnson, was undockeci last evening, having had her forefoot repaired, which had been damaged in her last cruise. The Emerald and Mercury tenders sailed this after noon fur Plymouth, with extra riggers belonging to that dockyard, which had been lent to the St. Vincent. The extra marines of this division which were em barked on board the St. Vincent to make up her com plement, disembarked from her this afternoon, and marched to barracks. The Wasp, 16, Commander Ussher, arrived at, St. He lena, from a cruise, on the 21st of August, and left on the 27th for Ascension, en route to England to be paid off. The Larne, 18, Commander Brisbane, was off Kaben da, coast of Africa, on the 2d of August. A private letter says—" Fortune has, however, changed a little more in our favour, the old Larne having actually cap tured two slavers in one day ; they were empty vessels, one old and leaky, so we took her dimensions and burned her : the other was sent to St. Helena. Dr. Burke has succeeded Sloggett as our surgeon. We go to St. Helena in about two months for another recruit ; that v‘ ill be our last visit to that island. All well." By accounts from Simon's Bay up to the Bth of Au gust, we learn that her Majesty's brig Helena, Sir C. Ricketts, arrived there on the 4th inst., having left Quil limaine on the Ist of July, and St. Augustine's Bay, Madagascar, on the 22d. Off the former place, her Ma jesty's ship Cleopatra was left cruising, for the suppres sion of the slave-trade, and was expected at Simon's Bay some time in September. At Sr. Augustine's Bay the English barque Ariel arrived the morning the Helena left, for a cargo of bullocks. The master of her reports having visited Tatnatave on the 12th, in hopes of obtaining a cargo at that place, but the Combs are as hostile as ever, and will not have anything to do with us. The Americans had been trying to open a trade with them for live stock, between Mauritius and Bourbon, but had failed in their object, bc:ag placed under the same restriction as the English and the French. Several English and French bullock vessels were heard of in the Mozambique Channel, and appeared to be procuring cattle without much difficulty at Tuhlah harbour, the Island of Johanna, and other ports on the west coast of Madagascar. The following French vessels of war were lying at Bourbon on the 11th of June:— The frigate Belle Poule, 60; the flag- ship Berceau, 30; the Voltiguer, 20; the Bucolique, 20; the Zelee and steam-sloop Crocodile, and three more were ex pected shortly, viz., the Reine Blanche, 50; the Ar mide, 46; and the steam-ship Veloc4, but nothing was said of any expedition to Madagascar at that time. The Helena, after leaving Simon's Bay in February last, unfortiinately lost 17 of her crew from fever and dy sentery, contracted in the Mozambique Channel and Zan zibar, making a total of 33 deaths since her leaving England, in Jan., 1844. At one time on this cruise she had sixty men on the sick list, or more than half her complement. It may be recollected, this brig was simi larly unfortunate last year, several men having died from a malignant fever, caught on boat service in the rainy season. There were several bad cases still on board, most of which it was supposed will be sent to England, for the recovery of their health. The Commander, Sir Cornwallis Ricketts, had also been dangerously ill, but was fast recovering. SIR W. PARKER'S SQUADRON. (From the Gibraltar Chronicle.)

CHARGE OF WILFUL MURDER. Yesterday, at noon, Mr. C. J. Carttar, Coroner for the Western Division of the county of Kent, held an in quest at the United Service Tavern, Woolwich, on the body of a male infant, aged three weeks. It appears that a woman, named Goldfinch, residing in Taverson-place, New Charlton, was confined about a month ago. On Friday afternoon last, between 12 and 1 o'clock, Mr. Henry Timpson, a medical practitioner, was called in haste to see the child, whom he found to be labouring under the influence of soma narcotic poison. In addition to several other females, a woman named Simcock, who seemed in great trouble, said she had given the infant some stuff out of a bottle, and that although part of the same stuff had killed her own child within a few hours of the time it was given to it, still she thought as there was scarcely any of it left in the bottle, that if' she put a little water to it, and gave the child some, there was still strength enough in it to do the child some good. The mother of the child, who seemed in great distress of mind, said, " I wish you had not recom mended me to give it ; oh, that I should have been so foolish as to give it to the child." Mr. Timpson imme diately put the child into a warm bath, and administered the usual antimonial and zinc emetics, and for some time the child seemed to rally, but it ultimately died on Sa turday at noon. The bottle contained syrup of poppies. The CORONER then issued his order for the exhuma tion of the child of the woman Simcock, and directed Watts, the constable, to take the woman into custody on the charge of wilful murder, both as regards her own child and that of the deceased. The inquiry wag then adjourned to afford time for an analysis of the contents of the stomach. DEATH OF 1 CHILD ON BLACKFRIARS BRIDGE, DT AN Ox'—On Monday afternoon, about half-past two o'clock, an accident of a fatal nature occurred at the foot of Blackfriars Bridge, under the following circum stances :—The 3d Regiment of Buffs, on march for Dub lin, passed over the bridge at the time above stated, and when near Chatham-place, the band struck up a lively air. Three oxen, belonging to Mr. Arnold, of Godalm ing, on their way to the South-Western Railway, were being driven in an opposite direction at the moment, and the sound of the music caused one of them to start off at a furious rate towards the soldiers. One of the sol diers, for self-preservation, held out his fixed bayonet towards the ox, which pierced the nostrils and increased his fury. The bayonet of another struck against the skull of the beast which bent it nearly in two. The animal then made a start towards Chatham-place, when a little girl between nine and ten years of age, crossing the road at the time, was knocked down, the ox treading upon her chest. City policeman Gayley, 348, imme diately ran to the child, and carried her in his arms to the house of Mr. Holden, surgeon, New Bridge-stre.et, but that gentleman being from ho me he proceedsecdarcwealtly haste to Mr. Littlewort's, adjoining, but had reached it when the poor child expired. The body was then conveyed toSt. Bitarastholhoimseowp'isnHioonsptihtaalt, dwehaetrhewthase house surgeon gave caused by a rupture of the vessels of the chest. In carry ing the child the clothes of the policeman were &km pletely saturated with blood. Up to seven o'clock last evening the body of the child had not been identified. AN OLD TRICK NEWLY REVlVED.—Yesterday t w o policemen, wh;le on duty in the Blackfriars.road, had their attention drawn to a female apparently in a strong fit and foaming at the mouth. The men ob tained some water and sprinkled her face, but she seemed to get worse; so much so that it was deemed absolutely necessary to remove her to the nearest surgeon's, which was accordingly done, when the medical man, after a brief examination, found a large piece of mottled soap in her mouth; and when they searched her pocket they discovered a large quantity of coppers. The officers, at the advice of the surgeon, placed her on a truck and dra2ged her to the station-house, where she was instantly recognised as au old hand at similar tricks, and was locked up. The Court of Common Pleas will exhibit some marked changes next term—a new Lord Chief Justice, a new puism. judge, with a Court open to the whole bar ; the exclusive privileges of sergeants-at-law having been put au t lid to, after an existence of 600 years, by an Act of the last session of Parliament. RETFORD AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. —The Duke of Newcastle has intimated his willingness to preside at the annual meeting of this society, which is to take place at Retford, near Doncaster, on Tuesday, the 27th instant.
