Mr. Rushton said it was his duty to commit the pri soner for trial to .the Assizes. He had, it appeared, fired upon the police, and not upon the crowd, from any apprehension of violence from them. The prisoner was then removed. FOUR PERSONS SHOT.—REMANDED CASE OF MR. CAST, LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1841. PRICE 5d No, 15,234 R OYAL ACADEMY TRAFALGAR-.: SQUARE.

He went to Casement's, knocked at the door, and told those within to bolt it, or they would all get killed. The mob . came and threw stones. He became alarmed, and ran away, but returned in about five minutes. They threw large stones at the house and broke the windows. A man in the crowd said he had a musket, and would go home for it and load it, and take Casement's life. The man ran off as if to fetch it. It was then dark.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES DEPARTMENT. By the plan exclusively developed by this Society, a single Deferred Annuity is made, nut only to answer the same object, but to far exceed in amount the entire benefit of all the ad vantages heretofore only obtained by the middle and industrious classes through separate investments in Savings' Banks, Be nefit Societies, and Loan Banks. 1. A small yearly or weekly contribution secure the most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is. a week) at the age of 20, will give the policy holder the fol lowing option, at the age of 65 Annuity for remainder of life £47 16 6 Cash Policy, without further contributions, of 466 0 oat death. Other periods of life (of 50, 55, and 60) may be also taken with similar advantages. 2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a fund always available during sickness or want of employment. 3. Two-thirds of all payments returned to representatives in case of premature death. N.B.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ordinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases, —as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the communication must be accompanied by the "usual Consulta tion Fee of I/.," without which no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and iu all uses, the most inviolable secrecy may be relied on. LITERATURE. THE TORY BARONET, 3 Vols. Bentley, London, 1841. The title page of this novel will be pretty sure to secure it a certai mof popularity,,for it is adroitly s ui e o ie temper of the times just now, when all classes of readers are busily engaged in thinking and reading, and wrangling about poll tics; so far, therefore, it maybe considered a tolerably safe speculation ; but if its literary merit be regarded, we tear it will dis appoint the expectations held out by its dexter ous title-page ; for instead of being a smart political tale, filled with clever and knowing sketches, illustrative of the characters of " Whigs, Tories, and Radicals," it is, in truth, a very languid, common-place affair, keeping up an interest only by fits and starts, and abounding, even to satiety, in details of a provincial election, and its bearing on the fortunes of a Tory Baronet, Sir Edward Clapperton—the hero of the narrative—in which details we find nothing to redeem their exceed ingly hacknied nature. Nor is there anything in the story to induce us to believe that the author has any further acquaintance with politics, than may be gleaned from an occasional perusal of ;he papers of the day. His allusions are superficial to a degree; and his Whigs and Tories, instead of being —as they really are— people of " mark and likelihood," are mere vague generalities. The only one of his person acres who has the slightest prete ns i ons to indi viduality, is Lord Swainton, a broken-down, middle-aged Bath gambler, who commences his acquaintaince with Sir Edward Clapperton in a stage-coach, by doing him out of a dinner, on the shallow, swindling pretence that he h a d left his purse behind him! Now, though an English Peer is quite as capable as any untitled indivi vidual of being a rogue, yet we contend that this is not exactly the form in which his roguery would develope itself; conventional habit alone would restrain him from acting in this manner; but, indeed, Lord Swainton throughout is not a sketch from life, but a sort of fancy portrait, the germ of which may be found in Kenny's Jeremy Diddler, who, it may be remembered, was in the habit of obtaining his breakfasts and dinners pretty much in his Lordship's style. It is but just to the author to add, that his third volume, and the last half of his second, is a de cided improvement on the earlier portions of his talc • and the whole would have been much more readable, had the eternal, forced vivacity of Lord Swainton's conversation been subjected to a se vere process of abridgement. To use his Lord ship's own favourite phrase, his pert, rambling volubility " beggars description !" NAVY SURGEONS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. STR,—Your Journal of the 23d ult. contains an ac count of an interview which took place between a depu tation of Medical gentlemen and the Liberal candidates for Marylebone, Sirs B. Hall and C. Napier. The latter Gallant Officer, is reported to have stated, in reply to a question from Mr. Simpson, that it was his opinion " that Naval Assistant Surgeons ought to have a private cabin for themselves, to read and pursue the study of their pro fession ;" he also stated that the mess in the gun-room was as comfortable as that in the ward-room, and less expensive, particularly since Mates had an increase of rank. Sir Charles must, when making this reply, have forgotten that in vastly the greater number of men-of war no " gun-room" exists, that such an apartment is only to be found in three and two-deckers, and that in every other class of ship, from the largest frigate down wards, the mess-place of the Assistant Surgeon is a dark, dingy hole on the lower deck, called " the Midshipman's berth," a wretched miserable place, the whole of which is completely filled up by the mess-table, and into which the light of day scarcely ever finds admittance, and this is, in most men-of-war, the only place the Assistant Sur geon can call his own—if, indeed, he can call that his own which he has in common with a set of mischievous young monkeys, the future heroes of our navy, who spend almost their whole time off duty in " skylarking." What the gun-room mess maybe now, I cannot say ; but I have served as a Naval Assistant Surgeon, and in my time the Midshipman's mess could bear no compari son with that of the ward-room. I do believe that an improvement has taken place since the period to which I allude, but it is not alone the want of comfort in their mess-place which has made the Naval Assistant Surgeons dissatisfied with their position in the service—it is the feeling of degradation inseparable from their situation which has induced many of them to leave the service in disgust, as was my case. Will the Gallant Commodore say upon what principle he would exclude the Assistant Surgeon from the ward room mess, and admit to it the boy Second Lieutenant of Marines, whose pay is considerably less than that of the former, and for whose appointment (until the recent re gulations regarding Marine Cadetships) no standard of education was required ? Again, supposing a party of troops embarked in a ship of war, with a Regimental Assistant Surgeon, will the Gallant Officer say why the military medical man should mess in the ward-room, whilst his brother of the navy is not allowed the same privilege ? The Naval Medical Board requires from candidates for Assistant Surgeoncies fully as high a standard of edu cation, general and professional, as does the Army Board, and yet Inw widely different is the situation of the Army Assistant from that of the Naval ? I would beg leave, with very great respect for Sir Charles Napier, to direct his attention to the the num bers of the United Service Journal for July, 1839, and for the same month in the succeeding year, and to the DuMin Medical Press of Sept. 9, 1840 ; he will find in each of these a letter from me on the position of Naval Assistant Surgeons ; and if the Gallant Officer will, when he has a little "otium" after the turmoil of his election (on the result of which I heartily congratulate him), do me the honour to read them, I venture to say that he will arrive at the conclusion that, as well as hav ing " a private cabin to themselves, to read and pursue the study of their profession," Naval Assistant Surgeons ought in every particular, as regards rank, pay, dress, and messing, to be placed fully on an equality with their more fortunate brethren of the Army. Your very obedient servant, MICHAEL °MEALY, M.D. and Surgeon ; Late Assist. Surg., H.N. Ennis, Ireland, July 1, 1811. LAMENTABLE COAL PIT ACClDENT.—Yes terday at none, considerable excitement and alarm pervaded the neighbourhood of Waterloo, Oldham, by the report that an explosion of "fire-damp" (carburretted hydrogen gas) had occurred in the coal pit of Messrs. Jones and Co. of that place. The report proved too true, and we regret to learn that three individuals were killed (one of them the overlooker of the pit), three others dreadfully burned, and some others had not been got out of the pit when our account left.—Manchester Guardian. ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE.—On Thursday after noon, at about three o'clock, a large body of the Tory blud geon-men, frantic at the return of Mr. Hindley, consisting of navigators, and numbering nearly 800, advanced upon the town from three or four public-houses in the Ashton road, where they had been plied with large qnantiti , :s of liquor. On entering the town, they attacked the police. office, which they ransacked. They afterwards attacked the Town-hall inn, Mr. Hindley's Committee-room, and broke the windows, and broke into two rooms on the lower story, but were prevented from going further by fourteen stout fellows, who gallantly kept them at bay by a storm of stones and brickbats. The constables, with a large body of workmen, then endeavoured to repel them, when a regular engagement ensued. Not less than a thousand men were fighting together. Two of the rascals were left on the ground very seriously hurt, and many were wounded. Thirty of them were captured and safely lodged in the cage, whence they were transferred to the New Bailey, at 'Manchester. FATAL ACCIDENT BY BATHING IN THE RIVE IL T AmEs.—On Sunday morning, between six and seven o'clock, a fatal accident occurred by bathing in the river Thames, on the Surrey side, near the Red House, Battersea, to Mr. James Dashwood, a young gentleman twenty-seven years of age, residing at Chelsea, a clerk in the Customs. The unfortunate gentleman, accompanied by a friend, was bathing, when his friend swam off only a short distance—on turning round he looked about him for Mr. D., but found he nntiapptly had disappeared, having no doubt been suddenly seized with cramp. The Memorial Bordelais gives the following instance of the imprudence of a too precipitate inter ment :--" The burial of a woman was going on a few days ago at Cadillac, when the noise of the earth and stones thrown upon the coffin , which had been al ready lowered into the grave, wakened her fro m a t rance into which she had fallen. Fortunately her cries were heard in time to take her up, break open the coffin and preserve her life for at least some time to come." FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CHRONICLE.—The Times has the audacity to talk of the " jobi,ing propensities" of the Whigs, and to refer to this source the recent changes which have taken place among the subordinate members of the Government. The charge carries absurdity on its face. To " job," as the Tories have to •ght us only too well, means to provide for political adherents at the public expense. In the present instarce neither Of these indis pensable conditions is complied with. No one is provided for. No additional expense is entailed upon the public. Perhaps the Times will have the ,goodness to explain how the relin quishment of one of the most lucrative practices ever enjoyed at the bar for a Chancellorship which carries with it no retiring pension, is to be construed into an act of rapacious and sordid grasping at public money. Or how the acceptance of offices from which by next quarter .day they will not derive one six pence of emolument, if the Tories have a majority, is to be considered as a general scramble for booty, on the eve of leaving office, on the patt of Sir George Grey, Lord Seymour, and Messrs Stanley, Sheil, Fox Moult, and Le Merchant. The Tories used to provide for their partisans after a very different fashion. The country is at this moment paying pensions granted by the Duke of Wel lington's administration, when on the very eve of leaving office in 1830, to persons whose sole claim consisted in their intimate connection with the Tory party. On the 15th November, 1830, Ministers were defeated on Sir H. Parnell's motion, and next day declared that they had tendered their resignations, and only held office unit, their occessors were appointed. On that very day, November 164, the following pensions were granted out of the Civil List ;40 Amount of Pension per Annum. Drummond, EdWard... , ......... ..• £250 Greville, ••• ..... 230 Holmes, Thomas Kn0i4 4 ... •••• •• 500 And on the 20th, or j us t twoeia,r h, fore finally quitting office, the following additiensl Rae, Dame Mary ••• £5OO These shameless and nefarious jobs were perpetrated by the Government of the Duke of Wellington and Sir R. Peel, by and for the behoof of the very men who now raise the cry of wolf, and accuse the Whigs of abusing the possession of power because they make changes which do not entail a single penny of additional charge on the public, or put a single penny in the way of permanent provision in the pocket of any one connected with the Liberal party. The other branch of the accusation —that these changes were made with a view to influencing elections—is, if possibie, more palpably and ridiculously untrue. Mr. Stanley exchanges an office which enjoys very extensive patronage for one which enjoys none. The object, the Times tells us, is to enable him to swamp the constituency of the popu lous county of Cheshire by a deluge of clerkships. Mr. Sheil also is,by some unexplained process, to save his election by resigning the very office,. the acceptance of which is to secure Mr. Fox Maule, who, in his turn, being in jeopardy at Perth, hands over to Lord Seymour a post which enables his Lordship to bid defiance to opposition at Totnes. Such lies are like those of Falstaff " gross, monstrous, and improbable." The fact is, as appears clearly from the result of the elections, that the Government influence, which the Times talks so much about, is in reality wo r th littl e or nothing. At Devonport, Plymouth, Portsmouth, and Greenwich, Ministerial Members are, it is true, returned • but why ? Because those are large, indepen dent, and intelligent constituencies. Government influence may, perhaps, carry a few votes, but nothing near enough to turn the scale. In point of fact, Liberal Members were returned for all those places in 1835, against Government influ ence, and would be so again. On the other hand, where there are not large, independent, and intelligenteonstituencies, Government influence is of no avail against the more power ful description of influence which can athard to pay, as at Har wich, 400/. for a vote. The result of the elections proves this fact clearly enough, that wherever there is a large and incor ruptible constituency, the chances in favour of a Liberal candi date are at least four to one. Wherever there is a respectable constituency, the chances are still in favour of the Liberals. But wherever there is a constituency notorious for corruption, subject to family influence, or so small as to make the purchase of individual votes a feasible speculation, the tables sire turned, and the odds are that the candidate of the Carlton Club carries the day. TIMES.—The season of the Irish elections is setting in stormily. It is in Ireland that the great effort will be made. It is there that the materials, as well as the instruments of agi tation, are found in the greatest abundance ; and it is there that the agents of violence and terror are calculating upon impunity from a Whig administration. Heretofore the great jobber in Irish representation, who undertook and managed everything, from a snug and cheap return for Mr. Hume in Kilkenny, to a rough-ridden and somewhat costly contest for Mr. Raphael in Carlow, had two kinds of mechanical power to work with—money and intimidation; and most diligently did he ply them both. The former resource, the money power, was for some time supplied pretty freely from the O'Connell rent. That stream, as long as it was kept tolerably full, as sisted most conveniently to turn the mill and grind the elee tions ; hut its current beginning to run too low, the Govern ment and the priests perceived that the machinery would want bodily strength to work it, and they are preparing for this service accordingly. In the ratio in which money falls off force must be supplied. Whatever of intimidation has been heretofore practised, is now to be renewed, reinforced, and re doubled. The Government, therefore, rely on the priests for activity, and the priests rely on the Government for protec tion. Does England know what interest it was which decided the Whigs to hold on through the struggle of a general election, instead of resigning their offices, as in " the spirit of the Constitution" they ought to have done? Does England know who were the faction that bellowed for dis solution in the House of Commons, and who were the back stair deputies that pressed it upon the Cabinet? The O'Con nellite confederacy. They were aware that, for the sinister purposes of their Irish electioneering, for the un interrupted action of their own ferocious influences, it was indispensable that the Whigs should remain in office till the'Sheriffs of the Irish counties had taken the polls. When Sir Robert Peel's Government dissolved the Parliament at the commencement of 1835, Sir Henry Hardine ' e, the Chief Secre tary for Ireland, made such d ts p o itions for preserving the peace of that country in every one of its districts, that not a singe life was lost throughout all the elections. It would not at all have suited the pious objects of the holy partisans who are keeping their eyes upon every Roman Catholic freeholder, that a similar security should have been provided now. They are free traders • they like "a Government that will let them What must s not gn b if ae fe election or two? These a re on l y t h e ev idences of "popular a sp lo ir n i e t ; whre l p v r e e a ., s se es d obfyaccidental death at an the despotism of con stituted authorities. ADVERTISER.—After all the boastings of the Tories,. a close calculation of the returns already made will prove them to have as yet gained little or no advantage in the present elections. By chance er design the nomination and days of polling were fixed in those boroughs where their strength pre dominated at an earlier period than in others differently situated, and consequently in the beginning of the " battle of the boroughs," they appeared to have an advantage which its further progress proves to have been altogether delusive. On a comparison of the losses and gains on each side, the Tories as yet appear to have gained but two or three seats more than the Reformers; but, notwithstanding this, the general returns 'Phis exhibit they against expect, t t o te o en ve ty r: come in the counties ; however, we have little doubt that the returns of their gains in the counties will show their calcula tions to be as fallacious as have been those of their gains in the boroughs. But what do the Tories expect to do in Ireland and Scotland? There is the rub. These are items which the Tories wish to exclude from their calculations, and discreetly so, for in neither country has the faction any favourable result to calculate upon. As to the English counties, the Tories having already exerted all their strength therein, they have obtained such an ascendancy in that portion of the representa tion as to leave themselves but little to gain, and their oppo nents but little to lose. In fact, by a judicious effort, the Li berals have almost as fair a prospect of gaining in the counties as the Tories had of gaining in the boroughs ; for this reason, the majority of the counties being hitherto represented by Tories, just as the majority of the boroughs have been by Liberals, it is here, as the great strong-hold of the enemy, that the assault should be most vigorously directed. It may be freely admitted that it was owing to the plan of attack, and not to the intrinsic strength of the assailants, that London and Westminster were deprived of one dialf of their Liberal Members, and left in representative neutrality. But for the loss inflicted upon these two important constituencies, the con test between the opposing parties would have been at the pre • sent moment on terms approaching to the most perfect equality, the Tories having no gain beyond the empty echo of their own fallacious vauntings. Let the Reformers but be as alert and active—we will not say as unscrupulous—i n the counties as the Tories have been in the boroughs, and even here it will be at least an equal battle. But the Reformers appear apathetic, while the Tories are putting all their energies into the utmost activity. POST.—The Ministerialists, while they admit a Conser vative gain, even upon the town elections of England, have the effrontery to talk at the same time of Conservative " fail ure." Failure ! How have we failed ? When the Ministers were beaten and reprimanded by majorities of the late House of Commons, their reply was that they would go to the coun try, which they were confident would pronounce a more favour able judgment upon their polies , and conduct than the late House of Commons had done. 't h y have gone to the coun try ; and the judgment of that part of the population which is most favourable to them has been, that the last House of Commons was not sufficiently hostile to them--that it was not so Conservative as it ought to have been. Is that Conservative failure ? The Ministers gave out that they expected to succeed : they expected a return of Members more favourable to them and their po licy, else why did they tlis-olve the Parliament ? We see how that expectation has been answered. In spite of all their Government influence, the returns are less favourable to them. That there is Ministerial failure is, then, apparent enough ; and yet ths , Ministerialists, in the face of events, have the effrontery to say, with unblushing falsehood, that the failure is Conservative ! They say this in the very same breath that they admit the Conservatives to have gained! Are we to conclude that the Ministerialists did not expect to gain when they dissolved the Parliament and appealed to the e t ir o r e c o a n l c o lu b j il e e et th , a v t as th to ey ern kn b e a s r v ras th s ey th w e ouldb e b e o e u a t n e t n r a ? 1, d A th re at w th e proxi mate Government by taking advantage of Government influ ence to secure seats which would be used in oppesitien? Are wo to conclude that they dis io:ved, not in the hope of obtaining a more favourable judgmet t from the country, but in the ex pectation of putting a Isar in the way of a dissolution under the auspices of a Conservative Government, which they knew was inevitable? Either we mnsf 'thus conclude, and, therefore. convict the present Ministers of the grossest false hood in their professions, and the grossest faction in their con duct ; or we must, on the other hand, conclude that they counted upon success, and therefore that they have completely failed. Either side of this alternative *very man who exer cises his judgment at all, must take. There is no escape ex cept in not thinking at all about the matter. And upon this ameher alternative hangs : either we must suppose the Minis ters to have spoken falsely in the reasons which they assigned for dissolving the Parliament, or we must suppose the Ministe rial organs to speak falsely in designating the result of the elec. t ions, so fir as they have gone, as a failure of the Conservatives. HERALD.-1 he elections are already so far decided that, dismissing all anxiety as to the side on which victory will de clare itself, we may turn our attention to the probable conse quences of it. What may be the numerical majority of the Conservatives in the next Parliament it would be as premature as useless to predict, but at arty rate it will be sufficient to secure the transference of the Government to their hands. Indeed, the Ministerial press do not affect to deny this. All that they attempt is, to console themselves for present defeat by triumphs in prospectu, and they certainly do apply this flat tering unction to their souls to a very comfortable extent. The morning organ of the Whigs has even discovered that the vic tory of the Conservatives is highly desirable as a necessary preliminary to a re-action against them) and that it will be far better far the Whigs in the end that, on the present occa sion, they should be the losers instead of the winners. " Un less a miracle," it says, " occurs to enable the Tories to revive trade, &c., it is inevitable that a few months must suffice to destroy the last vestige of their popularity, and bring about an overwhelming re-action against a Tory Government. It is, perhaps, better for the cause of free trade in the long run that the monopolists should have, in the first instance, such a majo rity as compels them to form a Government." The Chro nicle may deem it a miracle for the Conservatives to re vive the prosperity of the country after the manner in which it has been quacked into a decline by the Whigs, and upon this rest its hopes of the quacks being again called in to finish their work. But if the Chronicle is content with the bird in the bush, we are quite satisfied with the one in the hand. The hand, however, which turns the evening organ cf the Whigs does not play exaetly the same tune as the performer for the morning. It grounds its hopes of the Whigs returning to office, not upon the incompetency of the Conservatives to achieve the miracle of reviving trade. &c., but upon the Whigs being able to thwart them in doing so. The majority of the Conservatives, it says, "has been already reduced within limits which will render it powerless against the rising spirits of the people, and the regained confidence of the Liberals in the existing Government. * Another di•solution will, in all probability, follow at no distant period, the nearly-balanced state of parties which will still exist in the new Parliament, and then —." We have no appre hensions of what would happen then; such a repetition of the present crisis would cause us no uneasiness for its result, but we are perfectly prepared for the steps which the Whigs may take to bring it about. We do not suppose that Lord John Russell, as the leader of the Opposition, will pursue tha same manly and unprejudiced course as Sir Robert Peel. Both his position and personal character differ widely from that of the Right Hon. Baronet. He cannot command that unanimous deference from his heterogeneous party which would be able to restrain them from factious opposition ; neither do we suspect him of the political integrity which would scorn to thwart the measures of an opponent without reference to their merits. His conduct in this respect, when Sir Robert Peel was called to the Government in 18.15, cannot have been forgotten. It stamped him as the unscrupulous partisan who will decline no advantage by which the grand objects of his party—the recovery of place and power—can be promoted; and the bitterness of deteat is not likely to improve the impartiality of his judgment or the candour of his disposition. THE 'QUARTER'S REVENUE. GLOBE.—Although unable to express ourselves with certainty as to the general results of the quarter's revenue, as it will be exhibited in the official tables, which will not be made up until a late hour to night, and which we shall give in to-morrow's pub lication, we have reason to believe that those re turns will show that the existing restrictions on the trade and commerce of the country are working gradually, but certainly, those consequences to the revenue, which they have already, to a fearful ex tent, produced on the labouring classes who are de pendent on them for support. The fearful pressure of privation and distress upon the industrial classes, caused by diminished wages, where they are able to obtain employment, and their consequent utter destitution of means to purchase to an extent at all approaching to the usual consumption, exciseable and cus tomary articles of food, naturally acts upon the revenue, which largely derives its supplies from those sources. We anticipate that this consequence will present itself in the official statement which will appear to-morrow ; and, in the unmistakable language of fact, will warn the mo nopolists, and those who have identified themselves with their system, against persisting in a course which is pregnant with certain ruin to the country. STANDARD.—The county elections for England and Wales will generally be held in the course of the week commencing this day, and it is quite impossible to over-rate the importance of their result. It is true the city and borough elections have proved beyond hope favourable to the Conservative cause ; but •it would be wrong to rest supinely upon the ground thus won. The influence of Romamsm in Ireland, and the effect of the non-intrusion dispute , in Scotland may balance all that has been gained in this part of the United Kingdom. ' These considera tions must satisfy the agriculturists that they cannot spare a single seat to their adversaries—every county must send men resolved to protect from a threatened ruin those by whom, county members are elected. Upon the most favourable supposition as - to the present state of affairs, the supposition that Sir Robert Peel will have a moderate majority in Parliament (that he will have some ,'majority is already certain), kill the agriculturiits cannot consider themselves safe. A mbnace has already • been thrown out, that if . parties be divided with any near approach to equality, the Queen, will be advised to resort to another dissolution ; \ and in the times in Which we live , it is no answer's Ao the menace to say. that its execution would be , criminal, unconstitutional, and all but treasonable. We have seen expedients as wicked resorted to : it is only by ensuring a great majority that this `atrocious step can be effectually obviated ; and a great majority can be ensured, if the farmers of England only do their duty to themselves, their wives, their children, and their country. Of them, if of any single class, we may say that eley are emphatically " the people of England"—the pri mary sources of its strength and opulence—the living re , presentatives of the national chara,cteristics•—the depo sitories of the honour and safety of their country. If they speak firmly and unanimously, no minister will be so desperate as to disregard their voice ; but if they allow an appearance of division among them, there are other classes ready and eager to usurp the proud station which they will thus abdicate ; and of the support of theie other classes a profligate Ministry may avail them— selves to sacrifice the agriculture of the United King dom, or, rather, they will promptly buy the support of these other classes by the sacrifice, as they have already shown themselves willing to do. Let the farmers, then, coolly contemplate their . present position. Sir Robert Peel, noble and patriotic as are his dispo sitions, unrivalled as are his talents, will not be able to support the agricultural interests and the other interests of the country, if not' supported by a great majority. The great majority it . rests with the farmers of England. to give him—and they are the parties inte rested above all others in his obtaining it. This is the farmer's opportunity : it is only at a general election that he can act, and it is only by securing friends at a' general election that he can provide a permanent organ for the.expressionof his wants and wishes, and a constant and Vigilant guard for the safety of his dearest interests. COURIER.—The returns, as will be seen elsewhere, continue their favourable course for the constitutional cause, the fitting commentary upon which may indeed be'read in characters not to be mistaken, in the gloom and despondency by which the Whig-Radical press, lately so loudly . boastful, is now overcast— " The dawn is overcast—the morning lowers, And heavily in clouds brings on the day Big with the fate of " Russell and O'Connell. The weekly and daily tone of that press is now wasted in elaborate strains to prove that Sir Robert Peel may achieve, but cannot retain office, or rather, that upon certain given calculations and logical deductions therefrom, he ought no more to aspire to the triumphs of the Legis lature . and the Cabinet, than, by a similar process of ratiocination by the same sagacious critics in days of yore, the great Duke was justified in marching from one victory to another, in defiance of all the rules .of war and military tactics, as then authoritatively laid down by the Edinburgh Review, and the Aulic Council of Holland House. Our honest Radical Contempory, the 'Spectator, indeed, oracularly hints in no ambiguous terms at certain political 'coups d'etat and bedchamber intrigues, , by which the progress of Sir Robert towards the Treasury is to be stopped in liminc ; the coup d'etat bugbear, assuming the formidable shape 'of a Whig Privy Council, by which the Right Hon. Baronet and his Cabinet are to be superseded •and overshadowed, ,whilst the successive chaMpions who are to carry out the 'bedchamber plots, and scatter dismay and dis order through Conservative ranks, are, niirabile dictu, yet unborn, although, after the appointed period of gestation, they will be found armed cap-a-pie for the fray starting bodily from the very head or loins of Majesty or Minerva. Well satisfied as we are that ma-, chinations such as these discovered and denounced by our witty and well informed Contemporary do really haunt. the reveries of philosophic blue stockings like Mr. Macaulay, and palace politicians like ladies of the; bed chamber and the nursery, again gracefully 'lisping their first lessons about— " The babes in the wood"— yet as we may not gravely treat of them without min gling up in some sort the 'Royal person with the discus sion, also so indecently and disloyally paraded on all occasions as in disreputable alliance with Whig-Radical parties and purposes, we shall not expose ourselves to the possible construction of an indecorum through the malignity of opponents, by pursuing a theme otherwise so temptingly fruitful of materials for reflection or ridicule. • MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM Taft MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—In the course of the day it was stated in the city, that the highly respectable firm of Messrs. Ladbroke n and Co. had determined to wind up their affairs, not from any embar rassment; but merely from a desire of retiring from business. This statement was confirmed, after the close of business, by the following.circular, which was distributed among a few of the more immediate friends of the firm, and will be in general cir 'culation on Monday : " Bank-buildings, London, July 3, 1841. " Sir,—Mr. Felix Ladbroke, of our firm, being desirous of retiring from business, we have come to the determination of settling all our engagement's. With this view we are prepared 'forthwith to pay your balance; or if it should suit your conve nience, to transfer it to our friends, Messrs. Glyn and Co., who will conduct your account -on._ the same footing as hereto fore. Your concurrence in the latter arrangement will add to the many obligations we have hitherto received at your hands. s. Waiting your orders, we are," &c. The other country banks, which besides Messrs. Daintry, of Manchester, used to draw upon Messrs. Whitmore, have re moved their agencies as follows :—Messrs. J. Fordham and Co of Royston , to Messrs. Barcla y and Co. ; Messr s . Johnson and . Co., of . Romford, to Messrs. :Glyn and Co. ; and Mr. Hart, of Uttoxter, to Messrs Williams and Co. It was at first supposed in the city that the bank at Royston was the only one besides Daintry's that had any connexion with Whitmore s. POST. —The official lists for the foreign house contain no more than four q uotations for the entire day,a further andmost conclusive exemplification of the imisolicy of giving counte nance, as the Committee have allowed themselves to do, to investments of an unsound and disreputable description..

The tesolution referred to it appears is not founded upon any deficiency in the necessary means for carrying on money dealing as before, but, as it would rather seem, from the fact of the conside rable encroachment which the Joint-Stock Banks had made upon the business of some of the private banks, where the capitals, although quite adequate to the extent of current transactions now or heretofore em barked in, were not of that overwhelming magnitude, as in the case of various leading banks, as to bid defiance to Joint-Stock Bank competition, so far as that might presume for preference, on the ground alone of undoubted se curity to the public from the agglomeration of numerous pro prietaries and gigantic capitals. Assuming this supposed fallinc , off in the business of some of the private banks of unquestionable repute otherwise, to be correct, people in the city are natu rally reminded of the seasonable project arranged some time ago by Mr. Ward, a former director of the Bank of England, but of which nothing more has been heard of late. It is ob served that the plan in question would have been an excellent defensive combination against any invasion or curtailment of the profits of the private banks by the joint stock associations, or rather that the union of private bankers in one grand association of proprietors and capitals, which was the leading - principle of Mr. Ward's project, would have placed them jointly beyond the reach of other joint-stock bank com petition, and therefore have tended to swell profits and multiply busines., instead of, as now, in their isolated position, having singly to maintain a disproportionate contest for the retention of customary traffic, the increase of which may hardly be hoped for perhaps, under the circumstances, against mighty capitalist private and joint-stock banks. The realisation of such a scheme would appear to be yet both practicable and advantageous, although much longer delayed the opportunity would be for ever lost. There are several old and respectable banking names, both in the City and West-end, whose junc tion . and fusion into one grand banking proprietary firm, with a principal establishment each east and west, and the directory composed front among themselves, and comprising men, therefore, of the greatest practical experience, would carry with it an unsurpassable, perhaps unapproachable, degree of public confidence, and therefore a suitable participation in the great total of banking business and profits. From the tenor of City remarks and reasoning on the subject, of which the fore going enumeration of.leading points may be regarded as a brief but faithful analysis, it Is plain the public mind is prepared and favourable to such an undertaking, by which many respectable banking names, long and hereditarily known and esteemed, Would be desirably perpetuated. LIVERPOOL RIOTS. Those of the rioters who were apprehended were ex amined at the 'police-court on Thursday, before Mr. Rushton and Mr. Houghton. We subjoin a list of the cases. A young man, about twenty years of age, who was ap prehended in Water-street, brandishing a stiletto, and swearing he would wound the first man who came near him, was ordered to find bail. Mary Burke and 'Ann Howard were charged with having, at seven o'clock in the evening, broken the win dows of Mr. Robinson; publiCan Scotland-road. The case was proved, and they were fined 20s. each. Two young men, carpenters, were brought up for breaking the windows of Mrs. Wood's house, in Tarle ton-street. The prisoners threw a large iron nut through two panes of glass, the top sash of the windoW being down at the time. He sat still, thinking the parties would pass by, but they went to the bar window, and one of them took his hat in his hand and deliberately broke ten squares of glass. Mr. Clucas, on hearing the screams of a woman, went out, when he was knocked • down and kicked three times in the face. One kick was inflicted on the eye, the second on the cheek-bone, and the third under the chin.—Sent for trial to the Sessions. Two Irishmen, Peter Crawford and • Michael Gibbon, who were part of a gang of from forty to fifty rioters, who attacked a man in Lime-Street, and severely injured him, and forced him to take refuge in the Old Fall Well Tavern, were placed at: the bar. One dropped a large hammer from his coat when he was taken into custody. iJr. 'Rushton ordered them to pay a fine of 51. each, or be imprisoned for two months. Nine men and two women, amongst whom were Edward Canavab, -Robert Roberts, Paul Higgins, John Duffy, Peter Meade,- Michael Donovan, and Thomas Hanlon, were placed at the bar. Superintendent Murphy stated, that about half-past five, on 'Wednesday, he received information that the windows of several houses in Marybone had been broken by a riotous mob. The officers then identified their pri soners. One of the women had half a brick in her hand, which she was seen .to throw at an officer. A man had a large flint stone with which he struck one of the policemen ; and another woman came out of a cellar, and threw a large stone at one of the mounted force. A young man, named Donovan, was seen throwing stones, and followed to his father's cellar, where he disabled one of the officers with . a poker ; he also wok up a large knife, used by clog makers, and struck the same man.over the head with it : the other officer, in the attempt to get it from him, cut all his fingers. The old man who had assisted in re sisting the officer.' was also taken into custody. Another man, who was fount:. flinging stones at the police, was also brought up. wh,-n taken into custody, five half bricks were found in hi:: pockets. The rest of this lot were proved guilty of tln.owing stones. To the two women the Magistrate said Oat, considering their sex, and, probably, the mode in whic.tt they had been brought into the riot, he would only ordes' them to pay a fine of 20s. and costs, or be imprisoned tw..'ntY one days. To the other parties he said, they would', be committed to take their trials for that most disgracefu; and cowardly outrage and assault. One of the policemen, when dispersing the en; wd above alluded to, was struck on tha breast by a you, 1, who deliberately stepped out from amongst his fellows fok: the purpose. He was, fined 51., or, in default' of payment,. ordered to be imprisoned two months. A woman, who, in Fontenoy-street, took an apron full of stones and threw four of them at the windows of a neighbouring house, was ordered to pay 20s. and costs, or, in default of payment, be sent to gaol for fourteen days. A man was seen by a policeman with a cobbler's knife up his sleeve and a large bludgeon under his coat. He was using .very threatening language, saying that he would serve them out by and by. He was ordered. to find bail, himself in 201., and two sureties in 15/.. each, to keep the peace for twelve months. Mary Jones, for smashing glass and throwing stones, in. Great Crosshall-street, was fined the value of the damage, 4L, or to be imprisoned two months. Two, gentlemen were riding in a gig up Great Cross hall-street, between eight and nine o'clock; displaying their colours, whe l / 4 n they were attacked by a crowd of , men and women, to the number of about a hundred. A volley of stones was thrown at the gig, and the mob pursued it. The man who' inflicted the blows, as well as one or two, of the rioters, were sent to the sessions for trial. . A man, apprehended in Tithebarn-street in the act of throwing a stone at a policeman, was ordered to pay 51., or to be imprisoned two months ; and another, whose face presented the most horrid appearance, one side of it being completely covered with clotted blood, was booked for throwing stones ; but, in the confusion at. the time he was taken, the officer's name who apprehended him was not taken. and he was consequently discharged. It would very, likely. be some time before he recovered of his wounds. Shortly atm ten o'clock, the window and fanlight of a shop in Vernon-street-were demolished, by a mob, one of whom was apprehended in the act of lifting up a stone. He was ordered to pay a . fine of 4/+ and costs, or be im= prisoned two months. ~ a Two men, named Stinting and M'Gowan, for breaking into a house in Sewney Pope-street, and striking the police, to find bail, themselves in 10/., and two sureties in 251. each, or to be imprisoned one month. John Lambert, for throwing bricks in Old Hall-street, was ordered to be imprisoned twenty-one clays. A publican, who keeps a tavern in Sir , Thomas's buildings, appeared against two men whom caused to be apprehended on a charge of breaking h gh ad i: windows. A basketful of stones had been thrown into the house, the proof was no (t) t hon s t urffiit l. iently conclusive, e l se Campbell, f or r i ot i ng i n the i y ,at i r v i o c u k ld p l o i n al e , ga e b n ee and John Church-street when Lord Sandon's carriage and for subsequently breaking a landlord's window,v` . asp a s re were fined 51. or two months' imprisonment Edward Wood, Frank Mar c h, police, and were each fined 51.

They were severely reprimanded for such intimidation, and required to find bail, themselves in 10 1 . each, and two sureties in 51. each. John Hewett and Joseph Wilson, for attacking Mr. Wood's/ publican, Tarleton-street, and breaking athe windows in front, were ordered to find bail for appear ance at the Sessions. An officer was struck in the mouth, at eleven o'clock at night, by a vagabond who was creating a great dis turbance in South John-street.. A crowd subsequently gathered and assailed the policemen with stones. The prisoner was ordered to pay ss. costs, or to go to gaol for 21. days. A young man, who' said he was a bill-pastor, and had been very actively employed the whole day in his voca tion, was taken into custody for the indiscriminate use of his fists amongst his neighbours, in Lord-street. He had knocked several individuals down. He was ordered to pay 51., or be imprisoned two months. • As the mounted police were proceeding in front of the detachment on foot, along New Bird-street, a man, named Giant, who keeps a shop there, was observed standing at his door. As one of the mounted officers passed Grant, he threw a whole brick at him, which struck him on the arm and fell upon his horse. An in spector rushed into the house after him, and apprehended him. Grant committed for trial. James M‘Namer, Peter Key, Thomas Loughlin, Thos. • Dickenson', Henry Garvin, Timothy Regan, John Mit chell, A. Hamilton, R. Hunt, and J. Smith, were ac cused of having been active participators in the riots. They were all identified. On one of them was found a bludgeon or staff/ with a large nail knocked into it, by way of loading it. They were all ordered for trial, but with an intimation that they might be liberated on bail. themselves in 301. each, and two sureties in 151. each.. ! At the pAce-court, on Friday, a considerable number of cases connected with the disturbances were brought i before the Court, some of winch had been renteadedfrom Another little boy corroborated this, with some addi tional facts. showing the threats 3g eonduct.of the mob, who used the most desperate language with reference to Casement and his family. The women in the crowd went to a vacant piece of ground, and filled their aprons with stones, which were thrown at the house. There was no disturbance at the house before the mob came up. John Caivley, another seaman, said that the attack on the house was dreadful. The bricks and stones came through the windows and the fanlight of the door in volleys. Mrs. Casement and her daughter were both knocked down by them in the lobby, and received seri ous contusions. Other witnesses were about to be called, but Mr. Rushton stated the evidence had gone far enough. He had made up his mind to hold the prisoner to bail, to answer at the Assizes, any i ,indictment that might be pre ferred against him. hether, under the circumstances, the prisoner was justified in resorting to firearms, he should not take upon himself to determine. His duty confined hinitto the . preliminary inquiry only. He there fore required the prisoner to enter into securities, him self in 2001., and two others in 1001. each, to stand his trial at the Assizes. LANCASHIRE BOROUGHS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—You see we have won bravely in Preston. Bol ton also has redeemed its character.. Clitheroe struggled successfully. By.sheer bad management, Blackburn and Wigan have been lost, and Lancaster simply by Dash wood quitting the field when he had a certainty of win ning. In all our boroughs we had a bad, a long neglected register. Let us have a new register, and I have not the shadow of a doubt but the above four boroughs will be regained by the Liberals. After the new registration is complete, let the Queen dissolve again, and we are deter mined next time to return her a large majority. A PRESTONIAN. THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND. CDRRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE DUKE OF ARGYLL AND SIR ROBERT PEEL. It is with the sincerest pleasure that we lay before our readers and the Scottish public, the following correspondence between his Grace the Duke of Argyll and Sir R. Peel, con cerning the gross mis-statements which Mr. A. Dunlop thought proper to publish in several of our Whig contemporaries last week, respecting the alleged sentiments which the Right Hon. Baronet was said to have expressed to the deputation of Noe- Intrusionists, who had an interview with him in London a short time ago, on the subject of the Church question. Mr. Dunlop's letter was given in our Paper of Friday last, appended to some remarks on the Renfrewshire election. me pri mary object of that document was to damage the cause of Mr. Mure, the Conservative candidate, by propagating false information, and to affect generally the Conservative interests throughout Scotland. Mr. Dunlop explicitly averred that Sir Robert Peel, at the interview with the depu tation, had expressly declared that no settlement of the Church question could be allowed that did not embody provisions for subjecting the Church to the Civil Courts generally, and in particular for restoring the deposed ministers of Strathbogie. The use made of this statement was instantly to create a pre judice against Mr. Mure, and indirectly to have an adverse influ ence on the prospects of Conservative candidates elsewhere, by denouncing them as supporters of Sir R. Peel and his danger ous Church policy. The elector s were earnestly implored to vote for the Liberal candidate, and thereby resist Sir Robert's threat ened attack on the spiritual independence of the Church ! Now, we say nothing about the shameful breach of confidence of which Mr. Daniel) was clearly guilty, or the betraying of the un suspecting Baronet by pretending to consult him on the Church question, while his object was political ; concealing under the cloak of an ecclesiastical consultation, the dagger with which he meant to strike a deadly blow at the interest of the very person with whom he was holding friendly and confidential intercourse. All thin is bad enough—doubly disgraceful when resorted to in a religious cause. But this is not even the worst feature in the case. It turns out that Mr. Dunlop's statement is altogether incorrect, a scandalous misrepresentation of what took place at the interview, and giving a view of Sir R. Peel's sentiments, expressed on that ~ e casion, different from what he did say as light is from latter, merely on the knowledge which the p u blic dar .,:-ness. We could easily have contradicted Mr. Dun lo p's , but our contradiction might have had but littl e weight with the . m po Od se er s ati c On . party in the Church opposed to us. This has now been done, m AT most direct and authoritative manne r , • by both of the 'nostrums personages concerned. Sir Robert Peel says of Mr. Dunlop's account that it contains " very gross misrepresent ations ;" an d , the Duke of Argyll adds, that his own recollection of it (his Grace was present at the interview ), "perfectly coincides with Sir Il t bert Peel's statement of what passed on the occasion." Wha t will Mr. Dunlo p and his friends say to this? That gentleman is very ingenious In ex tricatingwill find some difficulty in devising either a n ex p lanation or a himself from awkward dilem mas ; but we sus p ect he vindication of his conduct on this occasion. We now subjoin the letter of Sir Robert Peel, accompanied with a brief expla natory note from his Grace : , NOTE BY THE DUKE OF ARGYLL. In answer to a letter addressed by the Duke of Argyll to Sir Robert Peel, Bart., requesting to know the purport of the observations addressed by him to a deputation of the Church of Scotland, at an interview with which he honoured them, the Duke has received the following reply, which, together with the note, he would be obliged to the editor of the Edinburgh Ad rertiser to insert in his next paper ; and to add that Sir R. Peel's statement of what passed on the occasion perfectly coincides with the Duke's recollection of it : London, 3, Connaught-place West, June 28, 1841. SIR ROBERT PEEL TO THE DUKE OF ARGYLL. - .. .... __ Drayton Manor,i'azelyT ;une 25, 1841. Dear Duke of Argyll—l have had the honoth• of receivine , your Grace's letter of yesterday, and I reply to it with the greater alacrity, because extracts from Scotch n,.•wspapers have been sent me containi ng ver y gross misrepresentations ofsentiments leapres an se d d at the gentlemen ce ntl y had with whi chy your Grace nanied you, on th e su bj ec t o f th e a ff a irs of the Church of Scotland, interview wwhhoichacel-orme: - To the best of mrecollection, the following is th e p ur p art of the obser va ti ons m ade by me on th a t o ccasion : What I would not enter into an engag emen t to support the Bill, which has been submitted to the House of Lords by your Grace, but that it was the less necessary to discuss in detail the provisions of that Bill, as it could make no progress during the remainder of the session, which was then about to terminate t i and that the meeting of the new Paril3nl;ontidait August wonlnot, probably, be of suf fi cient du ratio am h n . hick nt subject wic th e ture consideration of the very imports - Bill involved. w e re to admit (which I could I observed that, even if I . that Bill were, in t hemsel ves, not that the provisions , o! . ey , were p 1 4 st i ll , • that th Zs rospective wholly unexceptionab hot th i nk the- House of Lords would con only, and that I did . ior the future if the General Assembly sent merely . to legislate. f h 1 to mein ose ministers of should persist in its claima o aut ori y . p this ground, that those isters had obeyed the Church upon Court in Scotland and the law, as inte r p reted b y the Sup reme, by the House o f Lords on an appeal pfe, erred at the instance of the Church of Scotlan•. That _ I presumed that the right to depose the Ministers in volved substantially the right to deprive them of the privileges and emolument s attached, by law to their parochial cures, a n d that it appeared to me if such penalties could be inflicted for the cause assigned, the authority of the Church over the Statute Law and civil tribunals of the country would be paramount even in matters of a civil and temporal nature. That I thought such a claim on the part of the Church would greatly diminish, if not altogether destroy any advantage that might have been hoped for from merely prospective legislation, and that new causes of difference and new conflicts of autho rity, not provided for by such legislation'would very soon occur. A remark was made in the course of conversation, that if the present state of things were to continue there might ulti mately be a separation of the Church from the State in Scotland; far that the Church might feel it an imperative duty to forego any temporal advantage she might derive from an union with the State. To this I replied that I thought it better not to discuss the extreme measures to which it might be possible either for the Church or the State, in certain contingencies, to resort. I said that there were few persons out of the pale of the Church of Scotland whe took a more friendly interest in its concerns than I did, or were more anxious that it should retain unimpaired all its rightful authority, and that I earnestly hoped that some solu. lion of the present difficulties would be found, rather through the influence of moderation and good sense, than in the resort to extreme measures of any kind. The above is, according !te my recollection, the general pur port of the observations which I made on the occasion to which your Grace refers, and it will be very satisfactory to me tolcarn from your Grace that your impressions on this point lie in conformity with mine.—l have the honour to be, My dear Lord Duke, your Grace's Most faithful and obedient servant.

It is nnnecesiary to add another word of comment. This authoritative exposure will not be without its effect on the undecided elections in this part of the United Kingdom. It will show the country to what un scrupulous and unjustifiable means the leaders of the Non-In trusionists resort in order to effect the party objects for which they are contending under the mask of a zeal for the spiritual powers of the Church and the rights of the Christian people. — Edinburgh , Advertiser, This day is published, Bvo. sewed, THE REFORM of the REFORM BILL.
