MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON are instructed by the Proprietor to prepare for PUBLIC [ALE, at the end of SEPT, in Lots (unless previodsly disposed of by Pri vate Treaty), The very valuable and highly picturesque FREEHOLD FARM and LANDS, called LITTLE DARTMOUTH, some Farms at Bug ford, and the Noss Estate, in the parish of Brixham. The Little Dartmouth Estate contains about 360 acres, and presents obviously many great advantages, and numerous picturesque sites for building, unrivalled perhaps as to sea views and facilities for bathing and yachting. It commands also rich inland and river scenery, being at the mouth of the Dart, the magnificent scenery of which river at tracts yearly visitors from all parts of the world. The Manor is co extensive with the parish of Stoke Fleming, bounded by the sea coast for about two miles, and comprising about 3,000 acres, mid is an ancient well• secured right of free-warren, with right of sporting, with the wastes, commons, wrecks, estrays, &c. The Bugford Farms are on the road to Totnes, offering very eligible and improv able investments, and the Noss Estate, in the parish of Brixham, embraces the Old Camp, from which is a grand and extensive view of the Start and Torbay, and extends along the romantic eastward bank of the river, affording delightful sites for building, with orna mental woods and plantations, and an important frontage upon the high road to Torquay. A Mansion in Stoke Fleming, with good Grounds, &c., may be purchased or rented, particularly convenient fur the enjoyment of the Manor.

One half the wend are desolately single , and the other Ln A supposing them married, questioaably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes ern 'sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un eomprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness tad social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set dement. Honour and justice demand that health should form au item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or aeglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could It be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused. the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury l ofmi sery Treatise professes to dilate, areproductiveof greater to the constitutional and vital p owers. The particular excesses, on natureand euseg e u a e t n er severity ceof which this to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. the This work contains an accurate and completee account of the their relative conditions in health and disease. Orgltands,eseanrvdedvof A n atomy and Physiology of the Reproductive requires the closest attentien and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should he possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy v ictim of excessive indu l gence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his posseAsion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many yea rs i s a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

We have received the following notification from the North-Western Railway Company. It would seem, how ever, from the proceedings at the meeting, of w . hich we sub join a report, that there are still some difficulties in the way of an amicable arrangement:— " The drivers and firemen late in the service of this coin- pany having left their case in the hands of the chairman— unconditionally—and having expressed their willingness to resume their several duties when and under whatever cir cumstances their services may be required,' they will be re employed accordingly. " In giving this intimation the directors think it due to the new engine -drivers and firemen to assure them that they shall not be prejudiced as regards their present rates of wages, and that their interests in other respects will be fully pro tected. " By order, " R. CREED, Secretary. " London and North-Western Railway, Euston station, London, Aug. 19." Last evening a meeting of the engine -drivers and firemen took place at the Railway Tavern, Hampstead-road, for the purpose of communicating to the entire body the terms upon which they were to return to their duties to-morrow (this day). Mr. J. Buows having been called to the chair, stated, that at the request of Mr. Madigan, the superintendent of the permanent way, a letter had been written, dictated by Mr. Madigan, to Mr. Glyn, expressing the readiness of the whole body to return to their duties, leaving the settlement of their grievance, unconditionally, in Mr. Glyn's hands. This letter was forwarded, and on Saturday evening the following reply was received : "London and North-Western Railway-office. " Euston-station, Aug. 19. " Sir,—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of this date. " I accept with pleasure the intimation which it contains, that the enginemen and firemen late in the employ of this company are willing to resume their several duties when and under whatever circumstances their services may be required. " Captain Huish and Mr. M'Connell will make arrange ments for working the line in conformity with this intimation on Monday at latest. "In conclusion, you may be assured that I will not fail to bear in mind the other points referred to in your communi cation, and believing that you will have no cause to regret the confidence you have reposed in me,--I rema in, yours faithfully, "GEORGE CARR GLYN, Chairman. " Mr. J. Brown." In consequence of a communication from Mr. Madigan, who had previously turd an interview with Mr. Glyn, that the classification should be thrown overboard, and that the men should not be placed at the caprice of any superintendent, the engine-drivers themselves prevailed on Lord Dudley Stuart to forego putting about 20 questions to Mr. Glyn in the House of Commons , on Friday night, as to M ho state of the working of the line. After the receipt of the letter from Mr. Glyn, they prepared themselves to resume their duties to•-morrow morning. At six o'clock that evening 22 engine drivers were sent for, and they then found that they had been comp!etely tricked, for instead of their old firemen, all the new hands who had been employed during the past week as drivers were placed on the list to act as firemen to the old en gine-drivers. On receiving this information the entire body of engine drivers refused to go to work unless accompanied by their old firemen, and intimation to that effect was for warded to Mr. Walker, the locomotive s uperintendent at Camden-station, and that gentleman started on a pilot-en gine to make it known to Captain Iluish at Willesden. On his return, Mr. Walker attended the meeting, and read a letter lie had received from Captain Huish, stating that he was directed to assist Mr. M'Connell in procuring experienced engine -drivers to work the trains on Monday, that he had no orders with respect to the firemen, and that if the old drivers refused to resume their duties, they must work the line with the list of new men until the chairman of the company de cided the matter. The CHAIRMAN said a distinct understanding was given by Mr. Madigan, that the whole of the men should return to their duties. If there was not a desire to play some trick, he would ask why were the firemen not to go back as well as the drivers ?—( Hear. ) Mr. Daum begged it to be observed that those who had had charge of engines were now only considered competent to act as firemen. A deputation was subsequently appointed to wait upon Mr. Madigan, to represent to him the belief of the men that both Mr. Glyn and himself had been seriously compro mised by the course which had been pursued towards the men. 'the deputation did not return till half-past 12 o'clock, but nothing satisfactory res ulted, the whole t enor being the recommendation by Mr. Madigan that the drivers should return to their work with the new men, and that in his opinion their determination to refuse amounted to a dicta- tion. Mr. Madigan had promised to see Mr. Glyn the first thing in the morning, and strenuously urged them to go to work. e The CHAIRMAN, in order toprevent a cha rge of dictation, urged upon the drivers to go t o work to-morr ow, and if they did not have their firemen wit h them on Tuesday, then toy leave at once. Mr. Filicif said, if they once commenced work th ey cou ld not leave again without a fortnight's notice.—m earo After a long discussion a resolution was propo se d That the arrangements proposed to them this evening by Mr. Walker for the working o f the line on Monday being - a total violation of the understa ndin g comm unicated by Mr. Madigan on behalf of the board of directors on Saturday, that it be therefore determine d b y this meet ing that they will not resume work upon the London and North-Western Railway unless the firemen who have seceded be included in the settlement of the dispute. 'Phis resolution was put and carried unanimously, and the proceedings terminated at half-past ono o'clock this morning. It is rumoured in well-informed quarters that the choice of a tutor during t he early period of the P r i nce o f Wales's education has f a ll e n upon one of the assistant masters of Eton College, from whose success in engaging the attachment of his pupils, as well as the confidence of their parents, the best results may be anticipated in the more pro minent sphere to which it is proposed to transfer him.— Times. THE MURDER OF THE POLICEMAN AT ASIITON. —We have been informed that a letter fro m a person who speaks of himself as one of several implicated in the murder of Bright, the Ashton policeman, addressed to his wife at Ashton, has fallen into the ha nds of the authorities. It is written on shipboard at Liverp ool, and states, among other things, that after what has happened he cannot remain longer in this country.

Lott, arrived in the Mersey this mornit,g, at two o'clock. She left Boston on the 9th, Ind Halifax on the 11th inst., and brings the United States and Canadian mails, and 45 pas►engers. She has only about 1 0001. in specie on freight. The intelligence from Havannah, of an insurrection having occurred there, is neither confirmed nor contra (ficted; it is, however, generally disbelieved, as intelli gence had been received to the 25th ult., which makes no mention of it. Congress had agreed to adjourn on the 15th inst. There was an immense meeting of the " friends and sympathisers of the cause of Ireland against the cp prF•ssion of Great Britain," held in the Vauxhall Gardens at New York on the 3d instant; the meeting is described as the largest and most enthusiastic ever held in the United States in favour of Ireland ; from 30,000 to 40,000 persons are said to have been pre sent. The obj, et of the meeting was declared to be for the purpose of taking measures to sustain the people of Ireland through the crisis in which she will shortly be engaged, in the struggle for freedom; and further, to ratify the union between the provisional Committee and the Young Friends of Ireland. The chair was taken by Robert Emmett, Esq., and the meeting was addressed by the Chairman, John M'Keon, Horace Greeby, Mr. O'Connor and others, in language of the most violent and unjustifiable nature. The last named speaker concluded by stating that there were three thousand men now well armed and equipped, ready to march into Canada, where they would be joined by fifty thousand of the patriots of that country, the very moment the struggle was commenced in Ireland. We understand that the British Consul had protested against these proceedings, and urged the District At torney-General to prosecute the leaders of the Irish party. TIIE POLICY OF GOVERNMENT. DUBLIN, SUNDAY MORNING.—The following is the reply of the Lord Lieutenant to the address of the grand jury of the county of Cork. It is a document of consi &ruble importance in the existing circumstances of the country:— "Vice-Regal Lodge, August 16. "My Lord,—l am directed by the Lord-Lieutenant to re quest that your Lordship will convey to the grand jurors of the county of Cork his cordial thanks for their address of confidence in his Excellency's Administration, and express. ing their earnest hope that a firm and temperate policy will speedily lead to the restoration of that tranquillity so essen tial to the welfare of Ireland. His Excellency deplores the wicked efforts that have been made to excite rebellion and to involve the country in all the horrors of anarchy and civil war, but he ventures to hope that the people will have learned the utter hopelessness of such efforts, and will see that they who most sutler from social disturbances, are those who de pend on their labour for their dail7 bread, as without conti dance capital will not be invested in the employment of skill and industry, nor can those natural resources be developed which alone constitute the true wealth of a country. "It is his Excellency's firm intention to use the great powers confided to him by Parliament, solely for the main tenance of law and order, and the preservation of those insti tutions which secure the liberties, the properties, and the lives of all the subjects of this great empire. " His ExcellenCy trusts that the speedy restoration of tranquillity will enable her Majesty's Government maturely to consider the measures that elevate and promote the pros perity of Ireland, and thereby consolidate the strength of the United Kingdom. _ _ "I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's obe dient servant, " CORRY CONNELLAN.

The prisoner is brother to James Crotty, arrested at the same place some weeks since, now detained in Belfast House of Correction. Mr. Gunning Taaft, who was arrested at Ballingarry, has been committed to Newgate. ESCAPE OF O'GORMAN. The Limerick Ezamtner, a Repeal paper, alleges that Mr. Richard O'Gorman has escaped. From the follow ing statement, in that journal, it would appear that Mr. Little. the resident magistrate, unconsciously aided in his flight. " Betore the steam-boat was searched at the quay of Kil rush, as we have already stated, Mr. Little and the police were standing on the stones, devouring with their eyes every male passenger who happened to be standing or sitting, walking or lounging, on the deck of the vessel. They did'nt mind the ladies and women, and if they threw a casual glance at the feminine faces, you may be sure their eyes dwelt but briefly on the features of the old ones. The plank was put out, and the passengers disembarked, stepping out on the landing with considerable alacrity, and walking gauntlet between the fil es o f th e p o li ce . There was an old lady, however, of sallow complexion, and dressed, some say in black, who got out with some difficulty, and tottering a good deal and complaining not a little, was making her way up the slip to where Mr. Little, R.M., happened to be standing. His attention was attracted, his gallantry was roused, and he courteously de scended, offered his arm, and led the feeble old lady up to the landing. Little did he know the sex of the Lady. We are possitively assured she was Richard O'Gorman—that he was among the passengers ;numbers now assert ; and that in formation to that effect was furnished Mr. Little, is per fectly obvious from his presence on the spot. He is said to have acted the squire with great dignity, condoling with the old lady as she muttered, Oh, dear,' and bidding her adieu, when she was extricated from the crowd, with a bow that would have done credit to Lord Chesterfield himself." The following, which appears in the Limerick Chronicle, relates to the same subject : "In consequence of private information received that the chiefs charged with treason were at Killkee, a party of constabulary and Captain Norton's company of the 88th Regiment, under the direction of Mr. Little, R.M., pro ceeded to Killkee and its neighbourhood at the hour of midnight. Before the troops had quite arrived at Killkee, Mr. Little proceeded in advance, and ordered the local constabulary to immediately surround and guard the hotels and some private houses. On the arrival of the military a rigid search was made of the different places mentioned. The traitors were said to be disguised as females, and occu pied ladies' apartments; it, therefore, became absolutely necessary, on this important duty, that all the ladies' bed rooms (notwithstanding the high rank of some) would be searched. This painful duty (as many of the ladies were in their beds) was performed by Mr. Little alone, and in the most delicate manner possible, consistent with his magisterial duty. The High-Sheriff, Mr. Barton, of Carrigaholt Castle; Colonel Vandeleur, D.L., and Captain Kennedy, J.P., have shown much activity in their endeavours on this occassion to bring the accused to justice." MORE ARRESTS IN DUBLIN. In consequence of information received by the police authorities, the following persons—shopmen in the es tablishment of Messrs. Cannock and White, the drapers, in Henry-street—were arrested this day, under war rants from the commissioners of police, and committed to Newgate:—Patrick Alulhare, Edward Lombard, Peter M 4 lienzie, and James M'Grath. ARRESTS IN THE COUNTRY. The Evening Post says—" On the loth instant a Mr. John O'Grady, one of Messrs. Pini's young men, who absconded, and who was styled colonel, was arrested under the Lord Lieutenant's warrant for high treason, by Sub-Inspector Binden, and committed to Trim gaol." The IVenagh Guardian contains the following account of an arrest at Ballingarry, the scene of the late insur rectionary movement : "On Monday night Sub-Inspector Ilealy, of Borrisokane, having received information that Mr. Gunning Taaife, charged with having been engaged in treasonable practices, was in or about the neighbourhood of Ballingarry, he re paired to the locality with a strong police force, and arrested him in Ballingarry Castle, the residence of Mr. Thompson, to whose daughter the accused is married. Taaffe was in bed at the time, and had near his bedside a good supply of arms and some newly-moulded bullets. Some documents were found in the house and in his possession, which deeply implicated him in the crime of high -treason. Mr. Ilealy and his party of police brought Mr. Taffe to Borrisokane at one o'clock on the same day, and on Friday (yesterday) he was committed to the county gaol, from whence he will be immediately conveyed to Newgate. Mr. Taffe is a native of Dublin, and it is said he was a prominent member of the Irish Confederation." The Clonmel Chronicle contains the following:— " ARREST OF ONE OF THE BALLINOARRY WOUNDED REDELS.—A man of the name of James Dwyer was brought into Clonmel yesterday (Thursday), and lodged in the county gaol; he was one of the insurgent band in the battle of Boulagh Common and at Ballingarry, and had a dreadful wound in the right breast. Ever since the affray, he has been concealed in one of the pits in the vicinity of Bou lagh, and, from information received by the authorities, he was arrested down in the pit a few days since, and con veyed to Killenaule, from which place he_was escorted to Clonmel." ALTERATION IN THE ENGLISH MAILS. From and after the 18th of September next, the Lon don mail, via Liverpool, will be dispatched from Kings town harbour at half-past four instead of, as at present, half• past six P.m. THE STATE TRIALS. DUBLIN COMMISSION COURT, AUG. 18. The Court sat 'at the usual hour. THE ATTACK ON THE FOREMAN OF JOLIN MARTIN'S JURY. Mr. James Martin, the brother of John Martin, appeared at the bar, pursuant to the order of the Court. CHIEF BARON—It appears that on the day before yester day you proceeded to the house of Mr. Waterhouse, to chal lenge him in consequence of his conduct as a juror. The facts are admitted, and we shall at once proceed to deal with the case. Before addressing the Court, consult your legal ad viser as to the statement that you shall make. Mr. James Martin—l extremely regret what occurred, and admit I did use language to Mr. Waterhouse which at am other time I would not use, and which I now retract, as I have already dor e. I also beg pardon of this Ceurt for what I have done, and submit to whatever sentence your Lord ships shall please to make. Mr. O'RonEE (Mr. Martin's attorney)—lle admits, my Lord, that the statement of Mr. Waterhouse is correct. He resided principally with his brother in the country, and is much attached to him. He did not speak to any of his friends about what he was going to do, and went off at once from the court to do it. CHIEF BARON—Was it on the evening of the trial? Mr. OTORK.E—Yes, my Lords. Mr. Waterhouse—lt must have been immediately after the trial, my Lord, for I had scarcely arrived at home when he came to me. I beg your Lordships to bear in mind that he was greatly excited, and was in fact like a mad man. O'Roaxic—Even the young gentleman who accompa nied him was totally ignorant of the object he had in view. He thought he was going to Mr. Waterhouse to ask him to press the recommendation to mercy in favour of his brother. CHIEF BARON—I am very glad that the submission and atonement, as far as you are to atone for a violation of the law, and for what is unquestionably a contempt of this Court, has been so promptly made by you. It is fortunate for yourself that it is so made. It has been prudently made so far as your own interests are concerned, and it has been properly made so far as regards the administration of jus tice. It is right you should be apprised that if the submission had not been made, you would, beyond all doubt, have been consigned to a prolonged incarceration, and there would have been imposed upon you a heavy pecuniary line. We found it necessary, in the course of those proceed ings, to pronounce au admonition on the necessity of ab staining from all interference with jurors, or an attempt being mado to assail their characters and reputations, and to impute to them motives different from those which should actuate them. If it be essential to guard their reputations, it is still more necessary to guard their persons from outrage, and from the consequences of threats of outrage to their persons. It is, therefore, the duty of the court, in a case such as this, to exercise the powers the law has vested in then), for the protection of those who are engaged in dis charging the functions connected with the administration of justice, and, above all, to protect the jurors from intimida tion. In this particular cas e i t appears you have been be trayed by sudden and excited feelings into a violation t h e l a w. That is no excuse to the law. But it does also of appear that immediately after the violation of th e law into which you were betrayed, you did make an instant submis sion to the law, and an acknowledgement of the offenc e h a d committed. Although we feel bound, in perform anceouy of our duty here, not to allow this case h to go unpun ished, it is our desire to mitigate to the utmost possible extent the punishment we feel bound to award for your offence. Under all the circumstances of the case we do not co you for one feel it necessary to do mo r e th an t o month, and direct you to g i ve security, by recognizance, to keep the peace towards Mr. Waterhouse. Mr. O'Roma:—lle wishes to be imprisoned in Newgate, where he will have the society of his brother. T hf riso el, ncr was then removed. ~..........) THE QUEEN V. DonEn•rv, Mr. Kevin Izod O'Doherty, the prisoner in this case, was i placed at the bar, and the jury having answered to their names, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL read the two articles headed " Our Harvest l'oospects," and " Our War Department," from the manuscript proved to be in the handwriting of the prisoner, after which the case for the Crown closed. Mr. Burr, Q.C., at eleven o'clock, commenced his address to the jury, for the defence. The Learned Gentleman, in a speech which occupied upwards of three hours in its delivery contended that neither of the two intents charged in the in dictment—that of deposing the Queen, or levying war—were sustained, even supposing that the jury believed the evidence for the Crown as to the prisoner's handwriting in the articles beaded—" Our Harvest Prospects," and "Our War Depart ment," because they could not, in his opinion, bear an inter pretation which could be construed into an expression of in tentions existing in the prisoner's mind on either of those points. Counsel also observed upon the danger of relying upon the testimony of the witness M'Keever as to Mr. O'Dolierty's handwriting, when there were several most respectable persons who could be produced and examined on the subject, but who had not been brought forward by the Crown. In conclusion, he repeated the argu ments he so strongly urged on the first trial, as to the lin pssibility of a jury judging of a man's intents by the writings of another, and therefore as to the articles not sworn to have been written by the prisoner, they should ex clude them altogether from their consideration. At a quarter past two o'clock, Mr. Whiteside, Q.C., rose to reply on behalf of the Crown, when he was interrupted by Mr. O'RoRKE, the prisoner's solicitor, who, addressing their Lordships, said he objected to the Learned Gentle man appearing as counsel against his client, inasmuch as he had offered him a retainer on the part of the prisoner on cir cuit, before he was retained by the Crown, and he refused to take it. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—My Lord, Mr. Whiteside is one of her Majesty's Counsel, and he is bound by his oath to act for her whenever called upon to do so by the law- officers. Baron PENNEFATHER. —Mr. O'Rorke, this is a matter we cannot listen to here. It is quite irregular. Mr. OTORILE.—I consider it my duty, my Lord, to men tion the circumstance, and to enter my protest against the Learned Gentleman's acting for the crown. Baron PENNEFATHER—I ou have done so; but you Were quite irregular. Mr. W HITESIDE then proceeded to reply, and in doing se expressed his deep regret at the occurrence which had just taken place, lest it should be imagined for a moment that he had acted in any way which was unbecoming a gentleman of his profession. The facts of the case were shortly these —Mr. O'Rorke, the gentleman who had addressed the Court, applied to them on circuit to defend some of the parties charged under the Felony Act at the Commission, and offered him a retainer in the usual way, but he declined to receive it, and he considered properly so, alleging that he had acted for the Crown in a similar case a short time previously, and that he believed that, as one of her Majesty's Counsel, the Attorney-General purposed calling upon him to act for the Crown. Under these circumstances, he (Mr. Whiteside) re fused to be retained by Mr. O'Rorke, and he believed that he acted as he was bound in duty to act, as one of the Queen's Counsel, sworn to appear on her behalf when called on. The Learned Gentleman then went on to refer to the Acts of Par liament upon which the prosecution was founded, and to show the jury that the manuscripts proved to be in the pri soner', handwriting fully sustained the indictment, by esta blishing the intent which existed in his mind. He also sub mitted that he was equally to be judged as to his intention by all the publications relied on by the Crown, although not in his handwriting. Mr. Whiteside concluded his reply at six o'clock, when the Court adjourned. TRIAL OF MR. O'DOHERTY. SA7URDAY. At a quarter-past ten o'clock this morning, their Lordship• having taken their seats on the bench, and the jury being called over, Baron PENNEFATHER proceeded to charge the jury, and delivered an address of considerable_ length, which was lis tened to with much interest. At the conclusion of the;Learned Judge's charge, which did not terminate until nearly one o'clock, the jury retired, and. in a few minutes, one of the jurors returned into the box and inquired whether the handwriting of the prisoner had not been sworn to by a witness who had not seen him write for the last two years? Baron PENNEFATHER replied that such was the case. Mr. Burr intimated to the same effect.: The juror then withdrew, and a jury was sworn to try other cases. Half-past One o'clock. The jury have just come into Court, and inquired of the Bench if the mere publiction of the articles in the indictment was sufficient to prove the intent of the prisoner? His Loansitir stated if they believed that the prisoner had written the article, evidence of which had been laid be fore them—if they believed that evidence, he thought the intent was obvious. _ . The jury again retired, and had not returned into Court at :hree o'clock. Half-past Three o'clock. Their Lordships, wbo had previously retired from the Bench, have just returned Into Court, and directed the Sheriff to inquire of the jury whether there was any chance of their arriving at an agreement? The Sheriff accordingly proceeded to the jurors' room, and on his return informed the Court that the jury had stated that they were deliberating, and that there was no chance of a speedy agreement, but they did not seem to " give it up." DISCHARGE OF TIIE JURY. At a quarter to five the Sheriff was directed to inquire whether the jury had agreed ; he returned, stating that they had not, and that two of them were ill. On the jury being called out, the foreman said that them was not the slightest chance of their agreeing. Dr. Speedy examined the jurors, and pronounced two very ill. The COURT, after ordering the circumstanceito be entered in the record, directed the jury to be discharged. SENTENCE ON JOHN 'MARTIN. John Martin was then placed at the bar, and being asked had he anything to say, he stated that all parties had acted fairly towards him, hut he had not been tried by twelve-in different men; he then went into a vindication of his cha racter. The Cmlir BARON proceeded to pass sentence. His Lord ship addressed the prisoner at considerable length, and with great feeling; he was proceeding to say that the jury had recommended the prisoner to mercy, when the prisoner said "lie did not condescend to ask for mercy—he did not want mercy; he wanted justice." His Lordship said that the Court aid not altogether disregard the recommendation of the jury, but the Court was bound to consider mercy and justice to other classes of the community. The sentence of the Court is, that you be transported beyond the seas for ten years.. Tile prisoner, who was perfectly calm and collected throughout, was removed. There was no excitement whatever. This trial finishes th• business of the Commission. THE QUEEN V. 'WILLIAMS. The trials of Mr. Williams. the partner of Mr. O'Doherty in the proprietorship of the Tribune, was postponed, on the application of the Attorney-General. THE QUEEN V. SHAW, The trial of Mr. Shaw, the printer of the Felon, was also postponed. - - THE QUEEN v. DEI.ANY AND OTHER. Thomas Delany, and the other printers of the Nation, were admitted to bail. They are bound by their recognizancea to attend at the next Commission. THE DANGER OF KEEPING PIKES. Mr. BALDWIN, Q.C., reminded the Court that during7that Commission a lenient course of conduct had been adopted by the Crown towards those persons in whose possession pikes were found, on the parties submitting; but he begged to give notice, that taking into consideration that the pike is a weapon which could not be kept for any good purpose, they woKld feel it their duty in every case where, in future, a pike was found in a man's possession, to press the cue against him. CUM M ERCI AL. Thew Your, Atm. B.—The monetary pressure continues with undiminished severity in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and other cities. Within the last day or two, how ever, symptoms of improvement have appeared in Wall street. Shares have advanced a fraction, and Government securities are 1 4 to IA higher. We have no changes to note in our market, except in the matter of Indian corn, which has advanced sc. a bushel since the arrival of the America and the Herman. The cotton market to-day was dull. Flour was firm at previous prices, and with a fair business doing. In Exchange there is some activity, the rates for England may he quoted at from 9 to 9%, and for three days' sight bills, 9 3 / 4 . On Paris, sf. 22c. to 25c.; fifteen days' sight, sf. 20c. ; business moderate. - FLOUR, &c.—Western Canal flour is dull of sale. Holders, however, do not show any disposition to reduce these rates. Common brands range from dolls. 5,064 to dolls. 5,18 3 % ; better brands, dolls. 5,25 to dolls. 5,50 ; Southern flour, dolls. 5,50 to dolls. 6.

THE WEST INDIA MAIL. The Royal West India Mail steam-ship Great Western, commanded by Captain C. W. Chapman, from the West Indies, arrived at Southampton at half-past eight o'clock on Satut day evening, with mails and pas sengers. She brings advices to the following dates: — Vera Cruz, July 16th; Tampico, 14th; Havannah, 27th; Honduras, 12th; Jamaica, 22d; St. Jago de Cuba, 20th; Demerara, 19th; Trinidad, 22d; Baradoes, 27th; Grenada, 23d; Porto Rico, 26th; St. Thomas, 31st; Bermuda, sth August. The Great Western brought on freight 679,207 dolls., 333 ounces gold dust, 2,0641. 14s. British coin, 1,6691 ounces silver, 85 serons of cochineal; and general cargo consisting of 8 serons of jalap, 100 bags coffee, 6 boxes plants, 28 boxes Vanilla, 59 bales tobacco, 73 cases cigars, .5 cases succades, 50 packages sundries. At Honduras everything was quiet, and at Santa Cruz the same, but the Spanish troops still continued in the island. At Jamaica there was some talk of a disturbance in celebrating the Ist of August, but on inquiry by the authorities it turned out to be only a rumour, got up by a certain party. _ _ At Cub . a a disturbance had taken place; but the Go vernor-General having taken active steps, it was soon repressed, and the parties compelled to find sureties for their future conduct. The arrival of the packet from England has, as might have been expected, called forth an avalanche of indig nation and abuse from the Jamaica papers. The Jamaica Dispatch, of July 20, says:— " If there were any one ground more than another upon which the colonies are justified in denouncing the iniquitous conduct of the present Government, it is the dishonesty and untruth which they have manifested in their dealings with the important question now before the House of Commons. Anything more disreputable to Ministers as gentlemen (leaving out of the question altogether their responsibility as the Queen's Government) than the withholding from Lord George Bentinck's Committee a communication so important as the dispatch of Sir Charles Grey, of which we published an extract in yesterday's Dispatch, and its possession for two months after it lay in denying therepeatedly pigeonholes w d a ted the 21st of February est. of Downing-street, we cannot conceive. The dispatch of Sir Charles Grey as l and was the upon information o t h r m o a f t ion March. received I n r th ec a e t iv d e is d pa a t t e t h he sir Colonial-office C re • of 30s per cwt. for West India sugar could zette price on the spot, stated that nothing less than a permanent Ga y,ac.tinngn pre vent the greater portionofour sugar estatesfroemgaol to n going one of cultivation; and he recommended a rating equal penny a pound . on British and twopence a pound on foreign sugar —being just 9s. 4d. on British and 18s. Bd. on all fo reign sugar." The same journal, of the 22d July, says:— "The Ministerial proposition for the relief of the acknow ledged distresses of the sugar colonies is abundantly charac teristic of the party from which it springs. It is one of those little measures which are to be expected from little men. The scheme is an insult to the colonies, and an outrage on the honesty and humanity of the nation. It will not save one single sugar estate, nor will it give the confidence necessary to the investment of one shilling in the colonies. It would have been infinitely better had Ministers clung honestly, if we may use the expression in the face of circumstances, tb measuretheir schemedda insult of toco j i v a ry l ; destruction . bebecause, w h i T I s h t The it presentadits the rights and claims of the colonies, it unhesitatingly, in the face of that admission, consigns them to ruin." CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. KINGSTON, JULY 20.—At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce held on Wednesday, the 19th day of July, 1848, John Nethersole in the chair, it was resolved, " That this Chamber, in a communication addressed to its agent, Peter Borthwick, Esq., on the 23d March last, stated its well-founded conviction that important dis patches connected with the state of Jamaica had been for warded to the Colonial -office by the Governor of Jamaica; and this Ch am b er urged upon its agent the necessity of its calling upon Ministers for the protection of such dis patches. " That this Chamber learns with surprise and indignation that, although so lately as the departure of the English mails of the 2d of June, ministers hadersisted in declaring, in answer to questions on this head, that no important dis patches whatever had been received from the Governor of Jamaica, yet th a t a mos t i mpo rtant one, dated the 21st February, and received on the 27th March, 1848, was only laid on the table of Parliament, amidst a mass of other cor respondence, so late as the 9th of June last. "That in the opinion of this Chamber the detention of this very important document was most unsatisfactorily ac ' counted for by Mr. Hawes, the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies, on the night of the 19th June. " That this Chamber, speaking in the name and on the behalf of her Majesty's faithful colony of Jamaica, can have no confidence in the members of a Government, that either through carelessness or intention could withhold important dispatches calculated to have most material influence in the public discussion of a question, on which the fortunes, if not the lives, of her Majesty's West Indian subjects depend. " That whilst this Chamber is left to despair of all justice ' from a Government that could thus act, it feels bound to do justice to the Governor of Jamaica, who has been placed in a table position by the Administration, and has most unjustly incurred the public odium consequent on what appeared a criminal silence upon the disastrous state of the colony, to which it was impossible he could close his eyes. " That this Chamber is of opinion that the thanks of Ja maica are due to his Excellency Sir Charles Edward Grey for his dispatch to the Colonial-office, under date the 21st of February last, and this Chamber most cordially agrees with his Excellency in the wisdom of the recommendations which he was then pleased to submit to the Government, and only regrets that justice should have been so blind on this occa sion as to have overlooked altogether a communication so valuable in every respect to the West India colonies." THEATRICALS AT WINDSOR.—Mr. Charles Kean had the honour last week of an interview with his Royal Highness Prince Albert, at Osborne, relative to the English theatricals that are to take place at Windsor Castle during the Christmas holidays. There is to be, we understand, one representation during the week, for five successive weeks, and the first performance will be selected from Shakspere. The theatre will be built within the Castle, and the ihtire arrangement will be placed under the superintendence of Mr. Charles Kean.—.Hants Independent, Aug. 19. The Marquis de Ilyosa d'Alava and the Chevalier Bunsen were among the passengers that arrived on Saturday afternoon, by the General Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship Triton, from Ostend.

On Saturday the annual meeting of the proprietors of Drury-lane Theatre was held in the saloon, for the purpose r read in the the chair. of receiving the report of th e committee, electing officers, &o. B r a:11 D 1 n u x ß N o , n t d h e C e a e b c b r e e l ts l a Eq. , , committee :—following report of the " The committee have great pleasure in announcing to the meeting, through the medium of their annual report, that notwithstanding every vicissitude of the past season the rent due under the lease has from time to time been duly paid up to the Ist of August, that being the termination of the first year of the lease, in addition to which the department of the wardrobe has been considerably augmented in value, and an outlay, amounting to nearly 4,000/., has also been made upon the decoration of the theatre. With such a result the committee have deemed it expedient, as well as an equitable measure to wards M. Jullien, not to avail themselves of the power contained in the lease, of making it void, which his recent position had empowered them to do, but inasmuch as means have been found to carry out the covenants of the lease in other respects, such steps might appear somewhat harsh on the part of the committee, thereby depriving him of the chance of redeeming himself by continuing to hold the theatre for the remainder of the term originally granted. The posi tion of M. Jullien has, through his misfortunes, been before the world, and requires little further observation from the committee, except to express a hope that he will perse vere in his endeavour to render Drury-lane a means by which the drama may be once more restored. The public feeling at the present time appears to call for the effort, and no doubt exists of a considerable share of their patronage being awarded to effect so desirable an object." The remainder of the report was of no public interest, and after a few remarks from the proprietors present it was adopted, and thanks having been voted to the chnirman, the meeting adjourned.
