About two o'clock this morn ing, Joseph Spooner, a cabinet-maker, was taken, as he was entering his dwelling. Besides the above, there are others against whom warrants have been issued, and who have not yet been apprehended. All the prisoners were brought into court this morn ing, and, as might be expected, considerable excite ment was manifested. The mayor and a full bench of magistrates were present, also Captain Willis and Captain Sheppard. The town-clerk appeared on behalf of the authorities; the prisoners were defended by Mr. Roberts. Those persons who were arrested last week and bailed out, were first placed at the bar. Four of these (two of whom had been brought by officers from other towns) did not appear. The town-clerk said that since the prisoners were last before the bench the authorities had deemed it advisable to prefer an indict ment against all the prisoners at the bar and a consider able number besides ; in consequence of which true bills had been found against forty-six persons by the grand jury at the present Liverpool assizes. He should not have any evidence to offer before the magistrates on the charge on which they had previously been brought before them, as that charge had been preferred in another and more formal shape. As the prisoners were now in a different position, he should say that he hoped the court would take care to procure such bail as wculd se cure the appearance of the prisoners at the assizes. Mr. Roberts charged those parties who bad brought the prisoners there with want of faith, a pledge having been given that they should know the nature of the charge brought against them, which pledge had not, he said, been fulfilled. He believed the preferring of the bill of indictment was for the direct purpose of prevent ing them from knowing the exact evidence.! Mr. Maude said the first course of the Bench would be to discharge the prisoners from their recognizances, and to discharge their bail. He asked that a list of the bail to:be offered for those under the bench warrants should set forth the names, occupations, and station in life of the parties. After considerable discussion on several points, the magistrates retired, and after an hour's consultation re turned, when Mr. Maude stated that as Mr. Roberts ap peared for all the prisoners ; the rest of them need not appear at the bar. Looking at the aggravated charge, by which alone the Bench was guided, and the circum stances of the prisoners, the conclusion to which they had come was the following:—Mr. Barton to give bail in two securities of 200/. each, and his own recognizance for 400/. The bail and sureties for the rest varied from 2001. to 251. Mr. Burton's bail was given on the spot, and he was discharged. FIVE o'CLocs.—No other prisoners have been taken to this hour. 28% DUBLIN, TUESDAY EVENING.—During the first trial of Mr. Kevin O'Doherty, at the Commission Court, last week, the solicitor. General, Mr. Hatebell, made some observations in reference to strictures upo❑ the conduct of the Attorney-General, which Mr. Butt, the counsel for the prisoner, looked upon as containing per sonal reflections upon himself. When the commission closed, Mr. Butt, it is stated, made a co mmunication, through a third party (Alderman Hudson), requiring an explanation of those remarks. The Solicitor-General, it is said, gave a reply to the effect that he did not in tend any personal imputation whatever against Mr. Butt, and thus the matter has terminated. Mr. Butt has published the correspondence► as folloCvs:— .‘ THE STATE TRIALS.---MR. BUTT AND THE SOLI- CHESTER and HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.

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 vrretckedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could It be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap- Pointmeuts. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when Used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused Arlo orolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, a re productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Ali at°TnY and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative coedit:ens in health and disease. It deservedly requirea the closest attention and study, for what subject can aped f more Importance than the preservation of the health of the physical capabilities of which every man should ue Possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy Victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early Me or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering rrom their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap f,ilYing to a qualified phy s i c i an for relief.

(PaoM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.) CHRONICLE.—AIthough we approve of the mode in which the House of Commons disposed, on Tuesday night, of Mr. Herries' attempt to induce his two-and-forty hearers to bind over their six hundred absent colleagues to a mortal discussion, in February next, of the Bank Act of 1844, it is from no desire to see the discussion of that measure evaded, to exclude from publicity whatever inculpatory statements are contained in the report made by one, and the evidence taken by each of the Houses of Parliament. Assuredly these documents deserve to be well sifted and considered ; and as supporters of the Act, it is our desire that this should be done. The principal grounds relied upon by the Right Honourable Gentleman for regarding the favourable verdict of the Select Committee as disentitled to weight, were first, that the composition of that body rendered it an unfair tribunal secondly, that its report was at variance with the bulk of the evidence; and, lastly, that the Committee of the House of Lords, whose Re port was framed, as he thught, more in accordance with that evidence, had directly condemned the provisions of the Act. In answer to the first charge much has been said already which it seems needless to repeat. The real ques tion is, whether a fair proportion of all who hold prominent views, or represent prevailing doctrines, have been ap pointed; and, above all, whether the Committee fairly re presents the entire body from which it derives its powers. Now, according to either of these tests, the composition of the Committee cannot fairly be impugned. Its majority comprised the principal financial members of the past and the present Administrations; but in its minority were the leaders or representatives of every sect and school of currency , theorists known to the public. There were Mr. Wilson, Mr. Spooner, Mr. Cayley, Mr. Muntz, Lord George Bentinck, Mr. Disraeli, l i Mr. Hudson, and Mr. Herries himself. Again, that the ma jority of the Committee perfectly represented the majority of the House, we apprehend to be beyond dispute. The debates in November last, and on subsequent occasions, have clearly manifested the state of opinion that prevails in the present Parliament. Under these circumstances, it appears not a little unreasonable to complain that the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in forming his Committee, did not throw the balance of Members into the opposite scale. Next, as to the objection that the report is contrary to the evidence. If we measure it by quantity it may be true ; and the same result is not unfrequent even in the trials of courts of justice, since the conclusion that is adopted is not that of the witnesses but of the jurors, who sift the testimony and adjudicate on its value. The most eminent and experienced statesmen of the country were selected as a tribunal to try the merits of the Act of 1844, with such information and assistance as the evidence of professional and practical men could afford them ; but if the latter were themselves more competent to de• cide the question than the wisdom of Parliament, the inves tigation by a Committee at all was a vein and cumbrous superfluity. We value and respect, as highly as Mr. Her ries can do, the intelligence and sagacity of those leading members of the trading community whose opinions are re corded in the Blue-book, but we venture to doubt whether, after all, the practical man, as he is called, the professional banker, or the merchant immersed in business, however valuable witnesses as to facts, are the persons best qualified to form a sound legislative opinion upon the subjects in which they are interested. We do not consider lawyers the best judges as to what the law ought to be; we would not be guided by naval men as to the policy of the naviga tion-laws, nor by schoolmasters upon the subject of national education. The report of the Lords' Com mittee was evidently drawn, as Sir R. Peel observes, by no friendly hand to the Act, for it implies an hostility which it does not venture to embody in any broad or efficient propo sition. Able, dexterous, and elaborate as the document is, it is stultified by its lame and impotent conclusion. After convicting the Act of a material aggravation of the panic of October, and arraigning its inefficiency to regulate the value of money, to restrain wild speculation, or to check the abuse of credit, it does not venture to suggest its repeal, or even its modification, except in one respect—a power of self relaxation, which was contemplated at one time by the au thors of the law themselves, but advisedly repudiated by them upon cogent reasons. And to whom is it proposed by the Com • inittee to entrust this power? Strange to say that after giving an implied, though negative, sanction to the principle of the Act, which is avowedly founded upon a dis trust of the responsibility of the Bank of England, and after exhibiting fully In their own report, with quotations from the evidence to the same effect, that erroneous management of the Bank authorities which precipitated the crisis of April, 1847, the Committee have concluded in favour of vesting the dispensing power in the authorities of the Bank itself. If the statute is to be thus amended, and Mr. Herries should be disposed to bring in a Bill for that purpose early in the next session, we venture to suggest to him that an alteration in the title of the Act of 1844 is absolutely necessary, and we would propose the following amendment:—" An Act to re strict the Bank of England from extending its issues, and also for enabling the Bank of England to dispense with such restriction." POST.—No one disputes the adroitness of Sir Robert Peel as a Parliamentary debater. It will be observed that in the Right Hon. Baronet's speech of Tuesday, upon the Currency Law of 1844, he commenced in a jesting tone, and talked for a considerable time upon what he assumed to be the reme dial plans of Mr. Spooner, and the theories of a Scotch gen tleman of the name of Horner, who died a great many years ago, and who is chiefly known to the present generation by a monumental statue in Westminster Abbey. Having done what he thought enough in this way, he endeavoured to bring the motion of Mr. Herries into discredit, by showing how few Members of the House of Commons attended to it. Ile had himself come down last Tuesday, in order to be pre sent at the discussion, and notwithstanding what had been said about the country feeling intense anxiety on the subject, be found only thirty-five Members present to listen to the discussion. On the evening on which he was speaking he had again come down, and he found there were only forty-two Members present. Was it, he asked, to be for a moment supposed that a resolution carried by such a House would have any great influence with the country? The Right Honourable Gentleman said that when the time for discussion did arrive he would be ready to uphold the policy of maintaining all the restrictions of the Currency Act of 1844. Mr. Hume, a member of the Committee, declared in his place in the House on Tuesday night, that every fact brought forward was against the Act of 1844, and all the witnesses, with the exception of certain official persons in the Bank of England, were against it too. He denied that the report of the Committee of the House of Commons was entitled to the confidence of the pub. lic, and affirmed that had the truth been reported, it would have been to the effect that the measure of 1844, from which so much good had been anticipated by Sir R. Peel, Sir C. Wood, and the rest, did really aggravate the evils which it was intended to remedy. The public, therefore, require from Sir R. Peel, not a promise that he will discuss the measure when the proper time comes—not a solemn asseveration that he has no wish to stifle discussion, but an explanation of the KING'S COLLEGE.-Mr. Russell Day has been elected a Fellow of this society.

He supposes the case of 48,000,000'. of B m a re n mo k La p ro r eihd, e in r iel b ,li. e olt3 i n ; h ig aitn afloat theiatnk oflj n r it n e g d l li an i d n . gdo l T , w ) a y s i t e h ai l d . ,0 1 T 15,000,000 1 . was a dead weight of gold lying no such thing. The issue of 15,000,000!. was that the gold had been deposited, and the gold was guarantee for the convertibility of the whole of the 48,000,0001. 48,000,000/. Looking at the facility of this country to obtain credit, and looking at the evidence before them 11 did not think that the restrictions of the Act of 1844 could e prove injurious." We cannot be surprised, when we read such passages as this, that plain men should say they really cannot understand Sir Robert Peel. How can a deposit of 15,000,000/. of bullion by any possibility be a guarantee for the convertibility into bullion of the whole of 48,000,0001. in notes? What can be inure evident than that, if it be a the pound. No doubt, under ordinary circumstances, it guarantee at all, it is only a guarantee for six shillings in establishes a probability that the proportion of note-holders seeking payment in bullion will obtain it tookt it is no guarantee. If a general rush for pavment place, it is clear that some would be paid in full and the greater number not paid at all, or that all would be paid at the rate of about six shillings in the pound. When the working of the Act of 1844 first came into dis cussion, the House was told (by Lord George Bentinck, if a certificate uti it was we rightly recollect) that it was a fair-weather measure, but utterly unfit for stormy times. It will not be easy to mend this account of it. So long as credit is abundant, and there is no pressure for money. the Act of 1844 has no effect at all. As soon as circumstances call its provisions into action, then it becomes a horrible infliction upon the country, and places every branch of industry which is at all connected with credit at the mercy of usurers. In other words, it con signs to ruin all industry which is dependent upon credit. This is the character of the measure as proved by experience ; but it suits the convenience of Sir Robert Peel to shirk all the testimony of experience with regard to its working. Ile likes better to speak of his belief and his conjecture. If lie refers to events, it is to something about a gentleman who was dead and buried long before even the Act of 1819 was in existence.

COMMITTAL OF A CHARTIST FOR SEDITION. --On Friday George Webber, a notorious sedition -monger, from Halifax, was committed by the Bradford magistrates to York Castle, under a bench warrant, to take his trial at the next assizes for uttering seditious language at a Chartist meeting held on Toftshaw Moor, near Bradford, on the 12th of June last. The prisoner had for a considerable time been in con cealment, and he was one of the fourteen persons who were apprehended early on Wednesday morning last while in secret conclave at a so-called Temperance coffee-house in Manchester. DEATH OF A MEDICAL STUDENT.—Last after noon Mr. Bedford concluded, at the George the Fourth, Gi:burt-passage, Clare-market, an adjourned inquest upon Joseph Witney, a medical student, who was be lieved to have poisoned himself at the " Elysium" wine rooms, Bridges-street, under the circumstance already stated. Dr. Griffin, of King's College hospital, opened the body, anot gave it as his opinion the deceased's death was caused by prussic acid. Verdict—" Deceased died of prussic acid, but how it came into his stomach there was no evidence."

Admiral Sir William Hall Gage, G.C.H., Commander in. Chief, struck his flag at Devonport on Monday, and bas arrived in town, to attend the medal committee as sembled at the Admiralty. Rear-Admiral Superin tendent Sir John Louis, Bart., attends to the duties of the port during Sir William's absence. Sir C. Napier's squadron remained at Cork on the 20th. Neither the Pilot nor Tweed had joined, but were expected that day. We have much pleasure in announcing that the Ad miralty have promoted Mr. Bellamy, Assistant Master Attendant of Portsmouth Dockyard, to be Master At tendant at Woolwich Dockyard, vice Elson, deceased. This selection of their Lordships reflects the greatest credit on them for their discrimination and impartiality. Mr. Bellamy's promotion is purely one for merit, and their Lordships in appointing him, not only reward a most highly deserving officer, but they secure thereby the ffie.ient performance of the most responsible duties at a dockyard port. Mr. Bellamy, it will be recollected, was associated with Mr. Watts, now one of the surveyors of the navy's assistants, in getting off the Sphinx, steam-sloop; and, in fact, had charge of the most perilous portion of the work. Captain Caffin was promoted mainly for his partial assistance in this enterprise, and Mr. Watts was also promoted for his services on this occasion. Their Lordships have now done justice to Mr.:Bellamy in taking the first opportunity of promoting him. It will not be forgotten that Mr. Bellamy ren dered most valuable and successful assistance in getting off the Great Britain steam-ship from the rocks at Dun- drum Bay. The appointment of the store•receiver at Deptford dockyard, vacant by the decease of Mr. Pembrook, has been conferred on Mr. Wilcox, the chief clerk of that establishment ; and Mr, Peddle, of Deptford, has been promoted, vice Wilcox. There were numerous candi dates fir this appointment, both for the paymasters' and pursers', list, and from one or two departments at So 7 merset House ; % but Lord Auckledobserved , in;this case the signe r rule as he (lid in filling up_ the vitancy of stve 'keeper at the Royal Actualling-efface sr - me time since, by conferring a dockyarlk promotion on a dockyard officer.

The Resistance, troop•frigate, Commander Julian, on her way from Quebec, on returning to Portsmouth, after landing the .93d Regiment at Leith, will ,proceed to Sheerness to be paid etf. The Hermes, steam-vessel, Martin master, left Devon port for Portsmouth, to take the supernumeraries to Cork who were to have gone in the Sharpshooter; when done she will return direct to Devonport. WOOLWICH, AUGUST 23.—The Black Eagle steam vessel, Master Commander S. B. Cook, has received orders to be kept in readiness to proceed to Scotland, as she will form one of the vessels of the royal squadron during the Queen's visit to that country in September. The Princess Alice, Dover mail steam-packet, is or dered to be got ready by Friday morning next, and Lieutenant-Commander Scriven will take her out of the basin on that day, and proceed with her to Dover to re sume her duties at that station, as Captain Smithett will be ordered round, to Woolwich with the Vivid steam vessel, tho latter to form one of the royal squadron. The Spiteful steam-sloop left Woolwich at live o'clock on Monday morning under the charge of Lieutenant Robertson, assistant to Captain Austin, C. 8., and made excellent speed down the river, having arrived at Sheer ness at half- past nine o'clock A M., in good working order, and she now remains at that port. The Monkey steana•vessel went down the river yester day morning with 111 r. Bellamy, Assistant-master At tendant at Portsmouth Dock-yard, and part of the men who brought round the Gleaner steam-vessel. Mr. Bel lamy took the charge of the Terrnagent steam• frigate, and was to try her with canvas and steam to-day, and, if she was found perfect, navigate her round to Ports mouth. The Monkey returned in the afternoon, towing the Adventure transport store-ship to Woolwich. The Monkey left Woolwich again this morning, with orders to stop th e Sharpshooter steam-vessel, the latter to be taken into Sheerness instead of to Woolwich, as pre viously ordered. The Monkey, on arrival at Sheerness, towed the Ganges to that port. The Myrmi.:on steam-vessel was in Wick Bay on the north coast of Scotland on Friday last, on her way to the coast of Shetland, to protect the fisheries in that quarter. WOOLWICH DOCKYARD BRIGADE.—The whole of the artillery and infantry companies of the dockyard batta lion assembled in uniform on the parade ground, at three o'clock P.M. yesterday, and marched to the en trance of the Royal Arsenal, under the command of Lieutenant• Colonel Lung. When they arrived there the artillery companies proceeded on to the Plumstead Marshes, for practice with six 9-pounder field battery guns, each served with 14 rounds of shot, Major Jenkins commanding. The practice range in the Marshes, being comparatively free of vessels in the river, the men im mediately commenced firing, and made excellent prac tice, seven shots out of the three first rounds striking the target at 750 yards' range, and No 6 gun in the fifth round knocked down the target. The eight compa nies of infantry entered the Royal Arsenal under the command of Major Mouchet, and eight targets being set up at the butt, the men made good practice, completely riddling the targets, showing that mechanics make ex cellent marksmen when instructed in the use of either urge or small arms. COURT CIRCULAR. - OSBORNE, WEDNESDAY. The Queen and Prince took their usual early walk this morning, and the younger branches of the Royal Family walked and rode in the grounds at Osborne, as well as the illustrious visitors at present remaining at Osborne. The royal dinner party yesterday included her Royal High ness the Duchess of Kent, Lady Anna Maria Dawson, and the Baroness de Speth. The Queen will hold a Privy Council to-morrow (Friday), the 25th inst., at her Majesty's marine residence, Osborne, Isle of Wight, at one o'clock in the afternoon. Summonses were issued yesterday from the Privy Council-office to the Ministers and Officers of State. , Mr. John Thornton (Deputy-Chairman of the Stamps), Mr. Peacock ( Solicitor to the Post-office), and Mr. Timm (Solicitor to the Legacy Duty-office), had interviews with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, yesterday, at his official residence in Downing -street. SOUTHAMPTON, W EDNESDAY, AUG. 23. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's steamer Montrose, Captain Bowen, with the mails from Gibraltar, Cadiz, Oporto, Lisbon, &c., is expected to night or to-morrow.

FRENCH GRAIN.—The steam-ship James Wa tt, from Havre, has brought 20 0 sack s of flour, and 26 of ma i ze or Indian corn. This is one of numerous arrivals of grain and flour which have recently taken place from rance, the produce of that country. MOSEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was more ani mated, but holders sold willingly, and prices Were barely sup ported. Sales 5,000 bales. The Railway Share market had been more buoyant, although there was not much done. Private letters received from Canada state that the French party, with Lafontaine at their head, being in power, now show themselves in their true light as the weakest and most vacillating set of men that ever presumed to govern the country. One writer expresses his sorrow that Lord Elgin is so much under their control that he does not even invite to his table parties who might be objectionable to them. After all, however, we think some allowance should be made for the difficult position of his Lordship. Other objections are also urged, but in giving them, we do so without being sufficiently fortified with facts to com pensate the want of local experience. The commercial letters written by some parties advert to the gradual diminution of the revenue of the province, with its fixed liabilities, and it is contended that the difficulty arises from the defective ad ministration of the financial affairs of the colony, which the issue of floating debentures undertaken by the Government, and to be received in payment of taxes and duties, will only temporarily relieve; while ultimately tending to a derange ment of the provincial currency, by becoming depreciated, then speculatively taken up by capitalists, and imme diately paid in for duties, &c. Our correspondent says that this will add to the commercial embarrassments, and cause a diminution of so much sound currency. Canada, he goes on to remark, wants a strong practical Government, composed of men of position and character, whereas the French Canadian Government is most unpopular. We have culled portions of the letters that have been shown to us, because everything from private sources, which tends to throw light upon the administration of colonial affairs, is in these times important. Whether the views expressed be correct and Impartial, those most conversant with Canadian affairs will be capable of judging, but oftentimes a political explosion occurs, in some distant possession of the mother country, before the generality of readers have even heard of the existence of discontent. The accounts from Paris are still of a comparatively unin• teresting character in regard to financial matters, which no one can judge of beyond the time present. The collection of the revenue must be progressing, or there could be little prospect of the Dividends being paid upon the Public Debt. It cannot be denied, judging from the votes in the Assembly for the liquidation of the Greek claims, the compensation of slave owners in the West Indies, &c., that the French representatives are desirous of maintaining good faith with their creditors, and although we disapprove of the measures adopted, :in the matter of railways, whereby parties who in tended only to make an investment in a company are com• pelted to become Government Stock holders, we must make some allowance for the crisis that has overwhelmed France, and from which nothing but her own sense of honour and her determined energy could enable her to emerge. It would be well, indeed, were Spain, Mexico , an d other nations upon which the English bondholders have claims, to imitate in this respect at least, the conduct of France, but the pro ceedings of the Mexican Congress leave but little hope of such a course, for now money is coming into possession of the country, obtained, too, by unusual means, the United States indemnity, the Republic, like to many others in South America, no more pleads poverty, but actual disin clination to reduce its debt. Something, we trust, however, may yet be done to shame it into honesty. There is nothing later from Denmark, but the steamers leaving England for Hamburgh have resumed the convey ance of cargo. No conclusion can be arrived at from what took place in Parliament last night as to the amount which Government may need for the relief of Ireland, and although the accounts received from Dublin are better, much interest and some anxiety are expressed for the details of the budget. The finer state of the weather has given strength to the market for the public securities, and as politics abroad are apparently more settled, and satisfactory explanations were given in the House of Commons last night upon the views of Government, as respected Naples and Sicily, the disposi• tion among speculators, especially if the doubt concerning the Government monetary requirements were satisfied, is rather to operate for a rise than a fall. There have been accordingly some purchases made this morning, and Consols have realised 86% to 86% for Transfer, and for Account. Exehequer bills have been 28s. to 325. premium.

" The following are the names of these wretched creatures : —Charles Ash, wite, and five children ; Edward Morris, wife, and two children ; Thomas Brennan, wife, and seven chil dren ; Michael Fitzsimons, wife, and five children ; Patrick Salmon, wife, and one child; Richard Hannon, wife, and three children ; Mary Fegan and child ; Henry King, wife, mother, and three children; Edward Murphy, wife, and seven children; Widow Kelly, two children; Widow White. two children ; Patrick Stones, wife, and two chil dren ; Bridget Shauness, five children, deserted by her hus band ; Widow Connell, two children ; Widow Gilligan, two children; Richard Gilligan, wife, and two children; Patrick Monaghan, wife, and two children ; Widow Johnson, two children. " I should feel obliged by your giving publicity to the above statement. I pledge myself to its accuracy. The last account from the recent scene of insurrection in Tipperary is the following:— " EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM BALTINGARRY.—MON DAY, Ana. 21.—We had a violent gale here last night. It rained incessantly. Nearly the whole of the tents of the 74th Regiment were being blown down— even the mess-tent. which was well secured, could not withstand the violence of the storm. Although the country is apparently tranquil, still few arms are delivered up. The encampment is ex still to be struck in eight or nine days." THE HARVEST. The weather continuos better, but still far from settled. The reports of the grain crops are, in many i ns tances, very discouraging; but theinjury c au sed by the rain is only partial. The potato blight is still making p ro g ress. At the Dublin Corn Market there was an advance on all kinds of grain, and the new wheat at market to-day a as indifferent in quality. CHARTIST DISTURBANCES . At a full meeting of the Somers-town Chartists, the following resolution was adopted : Resolved—" That this meeting, being c onvinced of the truth and justice of the principles contained in the document called the People's Charter, and believing that its recognition as the basis of society would effect not only the political emancipation, but also the social amelioration of the toiling masses, we therefore cannot but express our deep and heartfelt regret that this sacred cause should be damaged and brought int o odium and contempt by the insane conduct of a few (no doubt honest, hut) misguided and unthinking me n, who allowed themselves to be stimulated on by those who were actuated by the most vile and basest of motives, and as we, the Chartists of Somers-town, have never counte nanced or been connected as a locality with the proceed ings alluded to in the evidence of the informer Powell, we consider it to be our imperative duty to protest against all secret proceedings, and we hereby repudiate, denounce, and condemn the conduct therein detailed, a s subversive to the great cause of progression and liberty, this meeting being confidently of opinion that incen: diarism, anarchy, and bloodshed will never eventuate in redressing the wrongs or achieving the rights of the working classes." JOHN ARNOTT, Secretary. FRESH ARRESTS OF CHARTISTS FOR CONSPIRACY. MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY.—During the past week the Chartists in this town have done what th ey could to turn the conduct of the auth or ities into ridicule; and some of those who were arrested last week have talked loudly about commencing an action . for false imprison ment. During last evening and this .morning they have been thrown into no little consternation by the arrest of several leaders, both of those who were bailed out edxeaemminined to prefer an indictment last week and others; and also by the announcement that a true bill was yesterday found .against no fewer than forty-six persons, by the grand jury at Liverpool, fur i lastors e sedition.the magistrates upon After thet recommendationhe against a much larger number than those who had been a e bill then to be pro police might be arrested and hold to bail,. being assured that they were not the only parties which had . been guilty of seditious proceedings. Application having been made to Mr. Jus tice Cresswell, at the Liverpool assizes, the grand jury sented. d evidence till ln yesterday, supportthat otfh The grand jury assembled a little before eleven o'clock, and at great length heard , the witness es. About h a lf-past two o clock the foreman of the jury stated in court that they were unanimous in finding true was able tode detained collect ae bills aga:inst the whole forty-six de fendants. As soon as this announcernent was recorded,. .11.. Pollock applied for warrants against all the individuals named, who were not already in custody. This was imm e di ately acceded to by his Lordship. Information was forwarded to this city by telegraph, ando fficers were sent to ap prehend the conspirators. The_ first a p prehended was James Leach, a prin ter, as he , "as l eav i ng Whit taker's Temperance Cc,ffee-hou3e, Ancoats• street.

In the course of the evenin g t h e following individuals were safely lodged in the Town Hall:—Wil liam Henry Chadwick, a mechanic; Thomas Roberts, a labourer; James Dolan, Thomas Rankin, an engraver; Michael M‘Donough, a clothes dealer, commonly called " Big Mick;" Joshua Leaman, William Burton, an umbrella maker; Mark Hulme, Robert Ramsden, a porter; Thomas Webb, a well-known Chartist of Stock- PRICES OF FOREIGN FUNDS.
