MoRNING• CoNexants.-9n Friday the first of a se ries of morning and evening dZ , neerts was given by Mrs. Stephen Chambers, at her dwelling-house in Soho. square ; and if we might predict from the excelle.nce of the perform ance, and the number of auditors present upon that occasion, we should augur every success to those entertainments. Al though there was nothing peculiarly ostentatious in the pro gramme, the performers acquitted themselves so admirably As to satisfy even a fastidious taste for the divine art. The duet from Guillamme Tell was especially welcomed, as it wet; deliciously executed by Mrs. Stephen Chambers upon the pianoforte, and Mr. Selberg upon the violin, both of them sccomplis2led artists on their several instruments. In another portion of the entertainment Mrs. Chambers sang with ex treme delicacy Pf articulation and with very considerable expression ; while alias Lyon, Mr. Handel dear, and Herr Erman afforded her material assistance by their vocal and instrumental performances. Among the numerous as,;.seible present, several members of the Roman Catholic aristocracy were observed ; and from the satisfaction evidently afforded by the preliminary .concert, we conjecture that this charming and intellectual series of entertainments will meet with the success to which it is eminently entitled. THE LATE CHIEF JUSTICE TINDAL.—The remains ,of this much-lamented Judge were Interred this morning, in PLe family grave at Kensal-green Cemetery, Harrow-road. A.t pine o'clock the mournful cortege, consisting of a hearse drawn by six horses, and ten mourning coaches each drawn by four horses, left the family mansion in Bedford-square, for the place of its destination. The ceremony, in every re spect, accorded with the position which the deceased occu pied up to the hour of his death, and the arrangements of the same were eflleiently made by Mr. Smith, of John -street, •OxfOrd-street, who acc.enpanied the procession throughiant. 'The attendants principally, ;f indeed not wholly, comprised hiss more immediate relatives and feiands of the deceased, :inettelmg Mr. Baron Parke, Sir WPam Symonds, of the (Ciifii department Royal Navy; M ijor Symonds, Captain vs n d a q, JJ.N , and 'F.

SUSTUS LIEBIG and VICTOR HUGO are severally ennobled by name, as an acknovvledgmeut that they were previously ennobled by nature : but FARADAY and DICKENS must content themselves with the vague admiration of their countrymen. One nation best•iws the ermine and the coronet upon the successful author or the astute philosopher, the other evinces its approval by endowing their hands with a knife and fork, and by proposing their health in a neat after-dinner oration. Though the latter appears somewhat like squeamish generosity and spurious gratitude, we welcome it cordially in default of some thing better. A letter from Constantinople, of the 24th ult., in a German paper, mentions, as an unprecedented instance of toleration in Turkey, that the marriage of an Armenian female with a Turk, without her hating previously at her religion, has been declared valid. The Swiss Diet was opened at Zurich on the 6th instant. A note has been addressed to the Govern ment of the canton of Tesino, by the POPE'S Nuncio, complaining of some laws recently enacted. The note declares these laws to be oppressive, and op posed to the spirit of toleration. Advises from Rome of the. 2d, state that the pub lication of the amnesty will not be long delayed. The authorities are busy at present in collecting and classi fying the names of the persons condemned, and whilst waiting until this is finished, his Holiness grants pardon to all demanding it. The nomination of the two Secretaries of State, without being yet official, appears to be determined on—Cardinal Gizzi for Foreign Affairs, and Cardinal AMAT DI SAN FILIPPO E SORSO. The fete of St. Peter was celebrated on the 29th. Notwithstanding the harmony which exists between the Courts of Rome and Naples, the POPE protested anew on this occasion agaim - frt the conduct of the King of NAPLES, who refuses to pay the pretended tribute for the investiture of his kingdom. Madrid papers to the 6th inst. have arrived. The Heraldo, of the 4th, states that some persons in the province of Orense had been exhibiting the portrait of the son of Don CARLOS for sale, but that it had met with few purchasers. All parties in Spain were preparing for the elections. The Absolutists had met at the Duke of VERE GUA'S, and had come to the following resolutions?— " ist. The Absolutist party will present itself at the election. 2dly, the Absolutists elected will use their in fluence in the urging the marriage of the Queen with the Count de Montermolin (son of Don Carlos). idly, a mani festo shall be drawn up with this view." The hopes of this party, however, have been greatly discouraged by the refusal of the Marquis DE VILLUMs to sign the manifesto in question, and so completely are they broken down as a party, that .this appeal to the electors will not, it is expected, produce the slightest effect. Intelligence has reached Madrid, from Santander, of the total failure of the potato crop in that part of Spain, in consequence of the re-appearance of the po tato disease. The diligence, which left Madrid for Bayonne on the 3d, met with a fearful accident on the morning of the 6th in the Spanish Pyrennees, at a hill called Rentoria. Descending at too rapid a pace, in turning an angle, the carriage, passengers, and nine mules were precipitated over a steep precipice. The first fall was upwards of twenty feet, and all would have been rolled into the abyss beneath but for the intervention of some trees. Strange to say, none of the passengers were seriously injured. Among the number were P. S. BUTLER, Esq., M.l'. ; Mr. CORUET, nephew to J. BLACKBOURNE, M.P. E*q. ; Capt. WILSON, late 7th Hussars, and Cap•ain PILKINGTON, Royal Engineers. Of these, the three first escaped unhurt, but the last was seriously bruised. The rest of the party were more or less contused, but were able to proceed in the course of the day. One of the Madrid papers, of the 6th, repeats the report of the loss of 600 troops on the coast of Al meira, by the sinking of a steamer, in consequence of her being overloaded ; and it is added, that although representations had been previously made to General RONCALI by the captain on the danger of such over loading, that officer maintained the order for their - - - believe this report to be unfounded, for the Gazette irey: , )tis 4.4 . y• announced the arrival at L.rra gona of the steamer Alerta, with 600 troops on board, who had been embarked for that place under the orders of General RONCALL Advices from Lisbon to the Ist inst. had been re ceived at Madrid. Everything was tranquil at that (late, and the excitement in the public mind seemed calming. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The dreadful accident on the Great Northern Railroad is the one all-absorbing topic in France at the present moment. Even the approaching elections remain unheeded. In another part of our paper will be found full particulars of all that has been published on the subject of this horrible catastrophe. The annual banquet given to M. GUIZOT by his constituents at Lisieux is fixed for the 26th, when, as usual, the Minister will give an exposition of his future policy. It is said that his programme will in chide several most important reforms. M. GUIZOT left Paris on Saturday for the neighbourhood of Lisieux. The daughter of her Royal Highness the Princess Of SAYE-COBURG GOTHA was baptised in the Chapel of the Palace of Neuilly, on Thursday evening. The Christian names of the infant Princess are MARIE ADELAIDE AMELIE CLOTILDE. The Colonial Council of Guadaloupe has remon strated against the measures propounded for the ame. lioration of the condition of the slaves. Several skirmishes with the Kabyles had taken place in the province of Constantine. M. DE SALVANDY landed at Algiers on the sth instant.

MINISTERIAL MOVEMENTS, Lord JOHN RUSSELL arrived in town this morning from Wimbledon, and will attend this evening in the House of Commons. A number of new appointments will be made both in the Administration, and also in the Royal House hold next week, on the return of her MAJESTY and the Court from Osborne House. Places have, it is understood, been assigned to Lord FALKLAND (who is returning from North America), and also to the Hon. Mr. PHIPPS, the brother of Lord NORMANDY. It is expected that Lord Joni RUSSELL will this evening address the House of Commons. Rising to address that assembly for the first time in his life as the Prime Minister of this country, and, under women. tous circumstances of peculiar novelty, to explain the present. intentions and to expound the future views of his Government, the occasion is one which both Parliament and the nation at large will neces sarily regard with feelings of the deepest interest. We rejoice to think that this duty will not devolve upon Lord Jose RUSSELL unaccompanied with incidents calculated to give him the strongest encouragement faithfully and firmly to fulfil the high mission which his SOVEREIGN has called upon him to undertake. The Premier will find him self this evening already surrounded by a great majo rity of his colleagues, who, by their acceptance of office, had to appeal to their several constituencies for the honour of being returned to Parliament. This of itself will be highly gratifying. It will show the confidence which the country imposes in the high character of his Lordship. Almost every hour brings us the intelligence of the unanimous return of a member of the new Government, and this too without the extortion of any pledge from the different candi dates. The country has shown, by the recent elections, it has not forgotten that Lord JOHN'S elevation to the Premiership was no act of his own seeking, that it sprang from the factious conduct of a party who vi rulently attacked a Minister because he preferred conversion to the dictates of reason, confirmed by the lessons of experience, to the continuance of power, based upon the sustentation of monopoly. There is no doubt of many of the Ministers having been mainly indebted for their prompt and unopposed re election to the candid and handsome assurance given by Sir R. PEEL, on announcing to the Commons his retirement from office, and since reiterated in his written replies to public bodies, that he would give his cordial support to his successors for the removal of all remaining impediments to the action of free trade. Had not this language been held without reserva tion, we might have seen many a protectionist can didate started, delusively elated with the hope of suc cess. But Sir R. PEEL, by his seasonable declara tion of his future conduct, cut this ground from under their feet. The monopolists have thus been driven to the convenient subterfuge, that they have only de layed their trial of political strength with the coun try, on account of our near approach to a gene ral election, conformably with the law re gulating the duration of Parliaments. The absence of all party spirit on the various hust ings augurs well ti - F our progressive civilisation. Lord JOHN RUSSELIk in the City of London, Sir GEORGE GREY, at Dewmport, not to naive others, have been unsparing in their - f;ghPQ of the late Prirzsf imitate these laudable examples, to abandon their factious inspirations, and, with these, the insane hope of fostering class interests, to the prejudice of the general welfare of the community. It seems, however, they are determined not to re main idle, and that, instead of showing themselves manfully on the hustings, they have regaled them selves with a white-bait dinner at Greenwich. From the names that have been published of those who attended, it was in every sense a political ban quet. No reporter was suffered to be present. Such an arrangement implies nothing in its favour, but everything against it. The English hate hidden councils. Where a body of men feel strongly for a particular cause, and are conscious of the rectitude of their principles, nothing in this age would be more desiderated than that a faithful account of their pro ceedings, and of the sentiments they entertain, should, by the aid of the press, be borne upon its wings throughout the country, whose voice must ultimately decide in favour of the adoption or rejection of the principles espoused. It would appear that Lord STANLEY, in the course of a long speech, enlarged upon the necessity of maintaining, in its full inte grity, the Established Church in England and Ireland, and exclaimed, " Woe to the Minister who dares to interfere with either !" We are not aware that an intention can be imputed to the present Government of attempting to weaken the Established Church. On the contrary, both Mr. MACAULAY, at Edin burgh, and Colonel Fox, at the Tower Hamlets, declared themselves, in reply to questions put to them upon this subject, opposed to a total severance between civil and ecclesiastical affairs. It is perfectly compatible with the full maintenance of the principle, by which our Church and State is at present go. verned, that the reformation of considerable abuses, which at present disfigure the connexion, should be effected. Lord STANLEY himself, as a member of Lord GREY'S Government, stood sponsor to the necessity of this species of reform. The state of the Irish Church demands at this day extensive revision. Its excrescences must be pared down to render it a healthy and useful institu tion. By legislating in this spirit, we shall more surely rivet the affections of a large body of the Irish, and, at the same time, by freein g the Church from all blemish, render it a happier instrument for I accomplishing its gracious purposes. One of the most fertile causes of the unhappy state of Ireland, leading to bloodshed and outrage of every description, has been the dissensions unhappily arising out of religious differences. The taunting exhibition of flags and banners, the playing of party tunes, the triumphal processions commemorative of an event which has been regarded as the forerunner and cause of all the misery and suffering, the misgovernment and oppression, by which our Roman Catholic brethren in that kingdom had so long been afflicted, from which the penal code, so long a disgrace to our sta tute-book, with all the long train of humiliations at tendant thereon, was supposed to have had its origin, must necessarily excite the most bitter feelings, the deepest indignation on the part of the great majority of the people. In the olden time, when the rule by which our sister Ireland was go verned was, Divide et impera—in the palmy days of Protestant ascendancy, when the mass of the po pulation suffered under a deep and burning sense of magistracy the injustice to which they were subjected— when the great body of the we"re selected from the most t . parti zans, anci the profession of Orange . principh, was looked on as a necessary qualification for th e aspirant to a seat on the iii;lCh of Just . ice, those offensive periodical exhibitions were sanctioned. and fostered by the authorities ; the outrages committed by the Orange party were connived at, or so le niently dealt with, as to impress them with a sense of perfect i npunity, no matter how atrocious their conduct might be, or how great the insults or pro vocation they might offer to the persons or the religion of the vast majority of their countrymen. Wherever the parties were at all equally balanced, the excited and in4l;n4nt people got up counter processions, and a conflict was sure to be the result of the meeting between the opposing parties ; from thence sprung strife and feelings of the most embit tered hostility between those who were neighbours, and ought to have been friends, and no opportunity was lost of giving vent and expression to those feel lugs, until scarcely a fair o: market could be held in the neighbourhood without being disgraced by one of the faction fights, in which too frequently lives were sacrificed, and riot and bloodshed affixed a stain on the locality and the characters of its inhabi tants. The matter was perhaps still worse in those districts in which the Roman Catholic parties, were too weak to venture on an open resistance, they watched the processions with moody looks and lowering brows, and curses not loud, but deep, and intensely bitter, attended its progress. They asso ciated together in secret and illegal societies ; they sought not redress from the law, in the administration of which they had no confidence ; but fearful and harrowing outrages effected on the persons or proper ties of those whom they looked upon as their perse cutors and oppressors, bore terrible evidence that they indulged themselves fully in the wild justice of re venge. Each party became doubly exasperated, and looked on the other as its natural enemy, on whom it would be criminal to let slip any opportunity of retaliation, and thus a kind of civil war sprung up which had its source in those silly and unmeaning exhibitions. Subsequently, when our brethren were admitted to the enjoyment of civil rights, and the penal code was swept away from our statute-book, or at least its provisions became obsolete, although many insulting and vexatious laws still were suffered to remain until this present year, the greatest exertions were made by the Liberal Government to put an end to these processions, to terminate all party exhibitions, the " teterrima causa belli." The Orange Association was included amongst the secret societies which were de • dared to be illegal, and its leaders and principal members seceded therefrom, and declared the disso lution of the society. Unfortunately all did not obey the direction and follow the dictates of those leaders, but the body was new modelled, and new rules and regulations were adopted for its governance, by which it was kept without the pale of the law. The Parties' Procession Act, too, and the active and stringent measures adopted by the Government, had their effect in mitigating the evil, and, to a certain extent, stop • ping the proceedings, but " the snake was scotched, not killed ;" and it is with the deepest regret we have observed that, notwithstanding the ex press and urgent entreaties of the more prudent and respectable mem bers of the body, it has been determined that the pro cessions this year shall take place, and this very day has been selected for the purpose. We trust much to the firmness and discretion of the new Government. We doubt not that all will be done to lessen the dis astrous consequences of the meetings, and to bring to ample and condign punishment all persons by whom the majesty of the law may be offended and the peace of the country disturbed. We also trust much to the effect of the good advice which has been given by Mr. O'CoNNELL and the leaders of the Roman Catholic party to the people. They can now well afford to treat with silent contempt and to laugh at such silly exhibitions. They have a Government determined to deal out im partial justice to all, without distinction of religion ; they have the most honoured professors of their own creed receiving the most flattering marks of the confidence of the Crown, selected for the most honourable posi tions on the bench of justice, the confidential advisers of the Government, many of them members of the Ministry ; they have had the evident gratification of hearing from the most influential leaders of all par ties that the principle on which Ireland is hencefor ward to be governed is a perfect equality with England in her civil, municipal, and political institutions. Looking at it in this point of view, the procession may be considered as a funeral pageant—the celebration of the obsequies of deceased ascendancy. The man who would think it worth his while to offer an opposition by provoking a hostile encounter, in which blood might be spilled, must be looked on as being guilty of equal folly and wicked ness with the provoking party. We cannot close our observations without noticing and paying the tribute of our admiration to the able and eloquent observa tions of Mr. Justice CRAMPTON, on this subject, when opening the commission at Armagh, on Wednesday +rust ti-at bP,p4tpotimhz Mad ' , nil CC/T.SIE4GS CU, 41711 Lalc . y pause ere they consent to take a part in sadirai": jectionable and improper proceeding. Though we are not disposed to sympathise in that frivolous alertness which has latterly prompted the Paris journals to analyse the intentions of public dinner parties—and which alertness has particularly manifested itself among those newspapers in some very acrimonious animadversions upon the Waterloo Banquet and the entertainment given at the Reform Club to his Highness IBRAHIM Pitcha.—we are prompted, nevertheless, to advert to a remarkable dinner which has recently occurred within the boun daries of the metropolis. Towards the conclusion of last week the LORD MAYOR of London, departing from the usual etiquette of his predecessors, received, as guests to a magnificent collation, a vast number of those among our contemporaries who have, in any especial manner, distinguished themselves either in science or literature. In rendering this tribute of gratitude and encouragement to the labours of intel lect, we conceive that his Lordship has imparted to his mayoralty a character which must ever render it conspicuous in the civic annals. He has testified by this act of spontaneous hospitality the intimate con nexion which subsists between the counting-house and the studio, the laboratory and the dock-yard ; he has by an especial act, as Chief Magistrate of the capital of England, evinced his appreciation of the truth which was uttered upon this occasion by the Marquis of NORTHAMPTON, namely, " the extreme importance of science and literature in a commercial and,trading country." So intimately are these interests associated, that, without their co-operation with each other, both must long since have languished and beco7ne utterly extinguished. Without the experiments undertaken by JAMES WATT in mechanics, pneumatics, and other branches of natural philosophy, where would have been those facilities of communication which' promote the industry, the comfort, and the civilisation of the human family ? Without the aid of literary weapons —first adventured by the catechisms on political economy by Colonel PEYRONET TuoMesoN and the nervous rhymes of EBENEZER ELLIOTT, and after wards diffused throughout the length and breadth of the land by the periodical tracts of the League —where at this moment would be the prospects of ' a free-trade policy in England ? Or, going back to a more remote and primitive example, what would be the condition of agriculture hut for the ingenuity of Turnii, CAIN ? Or wherein could navigation have acquired any stability, saving in the discovery of the magnetic power, and the in vention deduciele therefrom in the mariner's com pass; or, still further, in the prosecution of a yet lof tier study, the science of astronomy ? It would be preposterous, in short, to enter upon any detailed or systematic exposition of the mutual ties which tend to fraternise commerce and literature, science and manual industry. The marvellous connecting bands which associate these great systems of action with each other form the very nerves of that vast and complicated machine—Society. Never, indeed, were these facts more conspicuously attested than in this wonderful epoch when the rarest treasures of each are being incessantly exchanged for their greater development. Nor were these treasures ever lavished in any country with such extraordi nary and beneficent prodigality as in Eng land, for in this island have been produced the most astonishing mechanisms of manufacture, in this island steam power first revealed its giant form, and in this island the blessings Of, an un restricted trade have been first conferred Upon the population on a gigantic scale. Hence it is to us a peculiar and exceeding source of gratification to observe the respect thus testified to philoso phy and authorcraft by the highest func tionary in the greatest city in the empire. As science and literature are so subsidiary to the interests of the commercial community, it is but just that the latter should be subsidiary to the representatives of the former in the expression of its gratitude. As it does not appear to tally with the arrangements of the Legislature and the Peerage to o e s literature by e l eva ti ng th e i r m riP scienceouand worshippers to the a r i s t ocracy , su r e l y n t n t u u rsa,g i t i s a gratifying incident to observe the tribute paid to such 14P4 RA ky the LO MAYOR of London in MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. 1 CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was a quiet but steady market for Cotton at Liver pool on Saturday, sales about 4,000 bales. A moderate business was done in Shares. The market generally was firm. We understand that the friends of free-trade.are about to celebrate the passing of the corn and tariff measures by a public dinner in Covent-garden Theatre. This afternoon a preliminary meeting will be held in the theatre to make arrangements. It is expected from the number of indivi duals, who have expressed a desire to aid the cause, that a most numerous attendance will be given, and that the affair will go off with the greatest Eclat. There are accounts this morning from the West Indies, brought by the Trinity Yacht in the very short period of twenty-four days. This vessel has come over in a shorter period than any of the mail-packet steamers have yet accom plished the voyage. The complaints of the planters were still very general, and deep anxiety was manifested as to the resolves of Parliament with respect to the sugar duties. The principal part of the cargo of the Trinity Yacht consists of 20,t;00 pine apples, said to be in first-rate condition. From the Cape of Good Hope advices have been received to-day, to the 16th May. The skirmishes between the troops and the Kaffirs still continued, and generally terminated in favour of the latter, but this did not prevent constant depreda tions, burning of home:teads, robbery of cattle, &c., owing to the great extent of the frontier, and the fact that the military arrangements for its defence were not in a complete state, although very effective considering the force and stores at the disposal of the Governor. There is an undoubted neces sity for early and ample reinforcements from England.

The Committee met this morning at eleven ; present, the Earl of Lonsdale (in the chair), Lord Hawarden, the Earl of Warwick, Lord Ellenborough, and the Duke of Grafton. LEICESTER AND BEDFORD. Mr. Sergeant Wrangham and others were retained for the promoters of the Bill, and Mr. Austin, Q.C., Mr. llildyard, Q.C., and Mr. Hope, on the part of the inhabitants of North ampton and the London and Birmingham Railway, opposing. hergeant WRANGITAM, in opening the case for the pro - moters, said, the length of the line was 63 miles, to be con structed at an estimated cost of 1,500,000/. ; and was in tended to connect not merely Leicester and Bedford, as the designation might imply, but passed 16 miles to the south of Bedford on to Hitchin. The number of those in the neighbourhood of the line who would immediately en joy the accommodation was about 200,000; but that which was the great object of the promoters of the Bill was, the line opened the London market to a large fertile agricultural district, and would carry coal into that district at a reduction of 10s. per ton. The line would form a junction with the Leicester and Swannington Railway at Leicester; and though a petition had been sent up by the last company against the Bill, because a Bill was in their Lordship's House forming a junction between the Leicester and Swannington and the Midlands line, a Bill which had been delayed there till the fate of the present Bill should be known, the Learned Sergeant contended for the superiority of this junction over the other, and proceeded to call evidence to satisfy their Lordships. Mr. Packe, Member for South Leicestershire, said, on his examination, that being well acquainted with the district through which the line passed he believed it would be of great advantage, as giving the farmers a transit to the south for their produce, and opening the Derby and Leicester coal fields to Bedford, Northampton, and Hertfordshire. He had presented petitions to the House of Commons in favour of the line from those who owned about sixty thousand acres in the district. Mr. HILDYARD was proceeding to cross-examine the witness, on behalf of the South Midland project, which was thrown out in the House of Commons in favour of this Bill, when Sergeant WRANGHAM objected to his being heard. Mr. AUSTIN contended that precedent concurred with the common sense view of the jurisdiction of their Lordships' House, that a project, though rejected by the House of Com mons, ought to be permitted to appear before their Lord ships, otherwise they must judge only of such lines as the Commons chose to select. Sergeant IVRANGitam having replied, the room was ordered to be cleared. Parties, on being re-admitted, were told that the Commit tee considered the project to be a competing line, and that Mr. Hildyard might, therefore, proceed with his examination. Cross •examlned by Mr. lIILDYAItD —Mr. Packe recolleted that Parliament, in 1836, ordered the Midlands Company to suspend their Bill for the line between Leicester and Rugby, in case there might be a direct line from Rugby to North ampton. Mr. Paget, f3rmerly Member for Leicester, corroborated the last witness. Room U. The members of this Committee, consisting of the Earl of Kingston (chairman), Lord Churchill, Lord Wharncliffe, and Lord Camoys, assembled to day at twelve o'clock. The following Bills have been referred to this Committee, viz. :—Eastern Counties Enlargement and Extension Rail way, and the Ipswich and Bury St. Edmunds Railway (Nor wich Extension.) EASTERN COUNTIES ENLARGEMENT ,AND EXTENSION. GREEN W ICH ELEC TION. (THIS DAY). RETURN OF ADMIRAL DUNDAS. The election for a Member of Parliament to represent the borough of Greenwich, on account of the resignation of the Hon. and Gallant Admiral G. W. Dundas, who has accepted the office of one of the Lords of the Admiralty, took place to-day at ten o'clock, on a hustings in Church-street, Greenwich, near to the parish church. There was no opposition to the Gallant Admiral, who offered himself for re-election, and consequently there was no excitement whatever. At the hour of commencing the proceedings there might be about 2,000 persons present, a great proportion of which had come from Woolwich and Deptford, accompanied by approprate banners and bands of music. The gallant candidate was ac companied by Edward a Barnard, Esq., the other Member for the borough. 2g 1334 4814 Among the gentlemen present we recognised Colonel Fead, Colonel Dundas, Captain Wood, Captain Fead, Josiah Har graves, Esq., H. Hargraves, Esq., C. Millington, Esq., George Burnitt, Esq., Charles Harwood, Esq., John Wade, and a great number of the most influential electors of the borough. The returning officer (Thomas B. Fisher, Esq.) read the precept for the election, and the usual formalities havingbeen gone through, he called upon the electors to conduct themselves in a manner worthy of the occasion, as they had hitherto done under similar circumstances. CHARLES HARWOOD, Esq., in a neat and appropriate ad dress, nominated the Hon. and Gallant Admiral G. W. Dundas as a fit and proper person to represent the borough of Green wich in Parliament. Mr. JOHN WADE, of Deptford, seconded the nomination. The returning officer then took the sense of the meeting by a show of hands, which was unanimous in favour of the no- mination. He then, amidst loud cheers, declared the Hon. and Gallant Candidate duly elected as the Member for the borough. Admiral DWNDAS returned thanks for the honour just done him by the electors of Greenwich and Deptford. With regard to his future conduct in Parliament, he could only, as an illustration of what it would be, point to what it had been in the past. He had no inconsistency to explain away. He had for years supported the repeal of the corn-laws, and other liberal measures, and he would continue to do his best to forward every legislative proceeding calculated to advance the interests and extend the liberties of the people. The Hon. and Gallant Gentleman, who spoke but for a few minutes, was loudly cheered at the conclusion of his address. In reply to a question from Mr. Wade, Admiral Dundas promised to give the question of the condition of those em ployed in her ➢fajesty's dockyards his best consideration, with the object of increasing the remuneration at present paid them. Mr. BARNARD, the other Member, being loudly called for, also addressed the meeting, in a speech which was an echo of the sentiments delivered by the Hon. and Gallant Admiral. He stated he had always acted consistently with Liberal principles, both on the corn-laws and other questions, and be would continue still to do so. After a vote of thanks to the returning officer for his con duct in presiding over the election, the meeting separated. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—BIRMIN SRAM, SATUR DAY EN - ENO - G.—To-day an inquest was held at the Plough, in Shutlock, on the body of a man named Thomas Kirkland, who was killed on Thursday last, on the Birmingham and Derby Railway. It appeared from the evidence that the deceased was 49 years of age, and had been employed as a Forkman in erecting posts for the telegraph on the above line, a short distance beyond the forge station. He had just finished the erection of a post he had been engaged at, and was retiring with some of his fellow workmen, when he re collected that he had left a tool behind him, and returned for it, walking between the up and"down lines until he came to within a very short distance Of the spot where he had to cross over to the post. At the moment, however, an en gine with some empty waggons appeared in sight, and the deceased attempted to run across the line, but before he could get over the rails the train came up, and the buffer of the engine struck him, knocked him down, and the wheels passed over his body, almost severing it in two. No blame whatever could be attached to any individual except the unfortunate poor fellow himself, and the jury returned a ver. diet of "Accidental death." NEW BATCH OF FRENCH PEERS.—The Debuts gives the number of persons abcut to ha raised to the peerage at twenty to twenty-two, of whom about twelve were mem. hers of the Chamber of Deputies, which has just been. solved. ST. JAMES'S THEATRE.—MadelliniMio Rachel ar rived yesterday, and having reQovered from her late severe indisposition, will mare her twat appearance at the St. Janiee l Theatre th',3 avening, in her c e l e b rated part of Camille, in Corneille s tragedy of Les Boraces. Mr. TALBOT, Q.C., opened the case, and stated that the railway would meet a great requirement. Mr. Warren appeared for the commissioners of paving. Mr. Bidders, engineer, was examined, and gave g en er a l evidence, of the usual character, in support of the line.

During the past week the arrivals of all descriptions of Grain of home produce for our market has been on a very limited scale ; while, from Scotland and Ireland, very little Corn has come to hand. From abroad, however, large quantities of Wheat, Oats, and Flour, have been received in good condition. Fresh up to-day the receipts of English Wheat coastwise, as well as by land-carriage and sample, were on a very moderate scale ; consequently, the stands were by no means heavily filled with samples. Still, however (and notwith standing the attendance of buyers was somewhat numerous), owing to the pressure of free foreign Wheat on the market, and the flue weather for the growing crops, the demand for Wheat of home pro duce was very heavy, at a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last of from is to 2s, In some instances 3s per quarter, and a clearance was not effected. In free foreign Wheat, accordingly, little business was transacted, yet we can notice no alteration in value. To sell, lower rates must have been submitted to. We un• derstand: that in parts of Devonshire, Hampshire, Sussex, and Kent, Wheat cutting has been already commenced. The best parcels of Barley supported previous quotations. All other kinds were slow of sale, at barely late rates. Fine dry Malt was quite as dear. In other kinds very few sales took place. From our own coasts, as well as from Scotland and Ireland, very few Oats have come to hand ; but we had a large show of Foreign. The Oat trade ruled dull, at previous quotations. For Beans there was rather more inquiry, at very full prices. Peas and Flour, as well as most kinds of Seeds, were dull, at late rates.

During the past week, the imports of live stock from abroad have consisted of 200 Oxen and Cows, and 22 Calves from Holland, to gether with 16 Oxen from Hamburgh. To-day we had on offer 250 Foreign Beasts, and 500 ditto of Sheep, some of which, especially nine of the Hamburgh beip;ts, imp,,rted by Mr. Alexander, were of very prime quality. Still, however, the demand for them was in a very sluggish state, at about last week's quotations. Fresh up from our own grazing districts the arrivals of Beasts were seasonably extensive, and in very prime conditioil. Although the attendanee of buyers was somewhat numerous, the Beef trade was in a very depressed state, and the prices obtained on Monday last were with difficulty supported, the' highest price for the best Scots not exceeding 33 Km per albs, and at which a c l earance was not effected. The northern droves consisted of about 1,000 short horns, while from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire, we received 1,200 Scots, shorthorns, and hoMebre-ds ; from the western and midland counties, 300 Herefords, runts, Devon s , &c., and from other parts of England, 200 of Various kinds, The numbers of Sheep were again very extensive, while very few of them were beneath the middle quality, Prime old -Downs sold steadily at full prices, and all other kinds sapported previous quota tions. Notwithstanding the supply of Lambs was large, the Lamb trade ruled steady, at last week's currencies. Calves, the number of which was good, moved off steadily at late rates.

The arrivals of country-killed meat for our markets since Monday last have been seasonably extensiVo and of fair average quality.
