Immediate inquiry was made by the autho rities, when it was ascertained that a man had been found on the road near that village dead ; but on examination by a surgeon, we understand the death appeared to have been caused by esposure to cold...Scoitish Guartitan. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Globe.) The President's Message is of course mainly occu pied with the detailed Apology of the monetary system of his own end the preceding Administration. It may be termed a well-reasoned document as regards the political part of the question. But that is the smallest part of the question ; just as the Federal Government is likewise the smallest part of the government existing in the .United States. That a national bank and a national debt are not required for the use of the Federal Government may be very true, and may be a subject of fitting congratulation by the head of that Government, But it is also true that the several States have provided themselves pretty de cendy with those appendages of old governments, known by the name of Public Debts. The Pre. sident talks of " the known necessity which so many of the States will be under to impose taxes .for the payment of the interest of their debts." It is more over certain, that, whether the Federal Government wants a national bank or not, the commercial interest wants Banking and Currency placed on a solid basis. The President may be right in' " viewing the aggre gate powers of the General Government as a voluntary concession of the States," and ise thinging, therefore, that such only should be exercised as were, at the time, intended to be given." But in that case, it follows that the General Government must be a stranger to the most material interests of the actual community. It may be very right that it should be so ; we do not mean to dispute the doctrine of President Van Buren, as regards the loose federation of the States. But it follows that the elaborate statement of the doings and duties of the Federal Government, which is annually put forward, includes, in reality, very little in the shape of a comprehensive estimate of internal interests and administration. President Van Buren disclaims all share in internal improvements, all regu lation of the public currency, all promotion of public works. The very roads which approach the capital may boast their freedom from central authority, and citizens may be jolted and upset in the most constitutional man ner—and in snore remote localities Judge Lynch may perform his circuits—without the Federal Government calling any new powers into action, to meet the new sets of circumstances or exigencies, throughout the community. 'the Presidents who have stood upon most purely de mocratical principles, have assuwed the character ra ther of ibis faineants than anything else, and have congratulated their countrymen on letting their rulers meddle with their affairs so little. In the meantime affairs wi!l arise which require some central superinten dence ; and the democratic Executive prides itself on being entitled to afford—none. (From the Courier.) The annual message of the President of the United States on the assemblage of Congress is, under aley circumstances, a document of much importance, but on the present occasion it derives additional interest from the fact that it. may be regarded as the valedictory ad dress of Mr. Van Buren, the term of whose presidency is now so nearly approaching, and the renewal of the four years' lease of which has so recently been decided against him. Accordingly, the message is more than ord•nari►y general in its purport ; and whilst less space aad less attention are bestowed upon the enumeration and consideration of the current concerns of the republic, with such occurrences of public import, external and in ternal, as may have supervened since the close of the last session of the Legislature, more than common earnestness is displayed in the assertion at unwonted length of the leading principles upon which the administration of the retiring functionary has been conducted, and the con tinued and permanent action of which are held to be as indispensable to the progress and prosperity of the Union, as they are maintained to be strictly in accord ance with the forms and spirit of the Constitution as drawn up and understood by its founders. It may be looked upon therefore not only as the review and vindi cation of Van Buren policy during his four years' tenure of office, but as the manifesto of principles to which one of the two great parties into which the Federation is divided professes adhesion and adopts us its rail) ing ensign. It is not our purpose to follow the message in the discussion of the two great " contested points in our public policy," which are signalised as more peculiarly the line of separation between the fede ralist party now in the ascendant, and the democratic, in whose hands the destinies of the United States have reposed for an unbroken period of the last twelve years, inasmuch as questions of a " national debt and a na tional bank" are more purely of domestic concernment, and therefore attractive in other countries chiefly to the curious in fiscal and economical speculations. But there are principles of government, not now for the first time avowed and acted upon, of which the statesmen elsewhere may be usefully reminded, and the lesson of which can no where be more serviceably repeated than in Downing -street. From the Standard. In reply to the demand upon us for some authorita tive statement as to the pardon (the 'virtual pardon we again say) and the promotion of Frost, we copy the following from the Sydney Monitor of August 18 : ENCOURAGEMENT TO CIIARTISSI.—The good people of Newport will be gratified to learn that their old friend Frost, the celebrated Lord John Russell's Chartist Magis trate, conducted himself, during the voyage to Hobart Town in the Mandarin, to the satisfaction of the Surgeon-Super intendent. He was appointed, immediatey on his arrival at Hobart Town, a Clerk under the Commissariat Officer of Port Arthur ; and we bare no doubt that he will soon receive some still bett situation under the liberal government of Sir John Frayn. We would recommend Sir George Gipps to forward by the Pilgrim a dispatch to the Colo.. nial-office upon the subject of an opening hero for the unemployed, discontented, starving Chartists of Great Britain. It would certainly be more humane to forward them here as immigrants, through the aid of a parlia mentary grant, than to drive them to this country through the instrumentality of state prosecutors. We wish it to be understood that we are willing to receive them." This, then, is our answer to the charges of " fabrication," " folly," falsehood," and the rest, poured out upon us by the Globe, and repeated with all candour by the Conservative (!) Morning Post. This is our replication to the positive and absolute denial of all and each of our statements given by authority in the Globe. It is thus we meet such slanderers and enemies of truth, and we scorn to meet them in any other way. The present is not the fiftieth occasion in which we have had to thrust their false hood down the throats of the same parties ; nor will it, as we well know, be the last. We wish no more severe revenge than to compel them to wriggle out of their dirty and embarrassing position in just that manner in which the Globe of last night and its servile echo. the Morning Post, of this morning, have been compelled to extricate them selves. The gist of their exculpation is no longer, that the Standard fabricated the story, or swallowed it upon hearsay, but that the Sydney Monitor is a journal sold for three-pence ! The truth is, that the Globe was seven weeks in nrrear as to Australasian news, as it is generally in arrear as to all intelli gence ; and professional jealousy combined with party malice prompted its abuse of the more vigilant and active Standard. The Morning Pest of course followed its patron journal. We have allowed our Liverpool Correspondent to give utterance to the indignation which a gentleman must feel when his honour and veracity have been so rudely impeached, as his have been ; but we own that we grant the indul gence with reluctance ; we have for ourselves no seri ous quarrel with such adversaries as the Globe and Morning Post. " Peace to all such." MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of January 1'2.) SUGAR.--The trade has evinced less desire to purchase British Plantation Sugar, still there has been a fair de mand from both grocers and refiners since we last wrote, the purchases for the three market days amounting to 1,400 hhds and tierces ; importers have displayed firm ness, and the rates established at the opening of the market have been maintained, bright yellow and strong grey descriptions have been the most in request, of tine sorts of the former tl.e supply is small; Deme rara, low middling grey has been selling at 73s to 745, middling and good yellow 74s to - 765, fine 77s to 79s ; Berbice, low brown 70s ; St. Vincents low yellow 74, ; Trinidad, middling brown 70s Gd to 71s; Grenada, Ja in;ica, and St. Kitts middling yellow 75s to 76s ; good midd 77s to 783 ; Antigua, good mid and good 79s to 81s, line 82s to 82s Gd per cwt.

To day importers of West India evinced firmness, and the rates previously established were fully maintained, es pecially for good and fine yellow descriptions, which were in excellent request by the grocers, and of such the quan. tity at market was small, but brown and yellow kinds were only in limited damand. t The h refiners e mo at in were request; u y e t r i s i tote toafai. d s were to4So Ithds and tierces; fine yel haysstraomngousnotret good Grenada is pereat. tad much colour SO; tid to 813; rl'el low .11xrat(r.PLI extant, a fetched 635; Antigua, good 7.. bu 6 t d with not REFINED.—Former rates have been supported for Re_ iarly for the better dracr parcels Pl have been dispissed of at fined goods, and a good d i em t., a ), o ,s d , f l r la o s m pr t c h v e ad h e o d m , e pa t r ra ti d c e u ; standard Pimps in large 933 to 95,, fine 36s to 9,5 s ; 9 :2i 6 , 1 to 93, ; Tittlers d e l ( per brown. l u a n n p , s b o B r o B u s g t h o loaves s, s good a nd o a a o r r o il! fine fiunes t 9 u9 4 ro s d3s t o taon f d lB 9 s gt Treacle :ells freely at Iss : for a viz, at 16s to °s a, are few buyers, and prices remain Pieces there :13) j u s te o h d.

For Java there arc buyers rather under late rates, Mocha, at previous rates. This afternoon there was no public sale of any descrip tion; and by private treaty few purchases were made for home consumption, prices however were supported ; but good ordinary Ceylon may be bad at 733, yet few parcels are offering privatLly. The Foreign market is quiet, bet prices steady. For auction on Friday, 700 bags Ceylon and for Tuesday 600:bales Mocha arc declared. COCOA.—British Plantation has been less in request, prices have given way Is to 2; per cwt ; fair grey at 48; to 495, middling and fine red 53; to 58s per cwt. In Foreign prices remain high.

Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—FOr West India RUM there has been a briA demand, and pric.•s have improved Id for Jamaica, which has been the most iu request; other sorts have brought loaner rates; the home trade have been the principll operators. Of Jamaica 400 pun chrons have been disposed of since this day weck, favourite marks r.t 7s to 7s 3d, 33 to 38 per cent over proof 6s 6d to 6s 93, 33 to 34 over 6i ad • to 63 sd, 30 to 32 over 6s to 6s 2J. The sales of Lee ward; have amounted to 300 puns, proof's at 2s 91 to 2s 9-d, 2 to .5 per cent over proof 23 101 to 2s 11d, 83 to 10 over 3s to 33 Id, 12 to 15 over 33 2d to 3s 3d, 16 to 20 over 33 41 to 3s sd, 130 puns Demerara have been sold at 30 to 34 per cent over at 5s 4d to .53 61, 36 to 39 over 5s 7d to Si 9d, stronger 5; lOs to 53 11d.

Geneva has been in fair request,, and prices arc firm. British Corn Spirits have been in good request at lOs cash To-day prices were firm for Rum, and a good demand existed for all descriptions of West India, proof Leewards at the close of the market were with difficulty to be had at Is 9id per gallon. TEA.—The pacific accounts received from China have produced much inactivity in the market for Free Trade Tea, and a considerable depression in prices, the reduc tion since this day week amounting from 7d to 8d per lb, and even thereat the trade has purchased with extreme caution of both black and green descriptions; Congou, in small parcels for cash has been disposed of at is 61 to Is 7d for ordinary and coarse sorts, fair and middling blackish leaf is 7id to Is Bid, good and fine is 9tl to Is lOici, and very tine Pekoe flavour is lldtols I 1 ; small sales in Twannay for cash have been made at la 7d to Is 8d for common, and Is Ski to Is 9d for good brightish leaf; Canton Bohea, duty paid, has been sold at 33 81 for good quality ; indeed in the present state of the market it is difficult to quote prices, buyers as well as sellers not knowing what course to pursue; for public sale on Tuesday next :3,000 pkgs are declared—ether parcels are expected to be shortly advertised. The specu lative market - has been in an unsettled stare; Company's Congou on Wednesday declined to Is 6d to is bid cash, on Thursday in the early part they rallied to is Bid, but fell towards the close of the day to Is 74c1, on Friday is 7d was the quotation, and on Saturday there well sellers at is 61d, but yesterday the quotation advanced to is %id cash : upon the whole a good deal of business has been transacted at the above rates in this description of Ten. The deliveries of Tca for home use and export for the United Kingdom during the past year have been 6,000,000 lbs less than in 1839. To-day the trade operated with caution in Free Trade, and the transactions were trifling but holders did not ap pear disposed to submit to any further reduction, and fair common Congou for cash was not to be purchased under la 61d per lb; but if a large quantity was to be pressed for sale, it would be difficult to get that price. The spe culative market has been inactive all the day, and Com pany's Congou closed at is bid cash. FRUIT.—For Valencia Ra.sins a good demand has pre vailed, and prices supported fur the better sorts, other kinds of Fruit have been in better request, and a con siderable portion of business done in several kinds; of Turkey Figs the stock is large, and a great portion being inferior quality, the Importers have pressed sales at the lowest quoted prices.

Y. C. prices were firmer : on the spot a fair business was transacted at 47, and some purchases were made for delivery at 47s 3d to 47s 6d per cwt. OILS. —The transactions in common descriptions of Fish Oils have been limited since we last wrote, and in some cases rather lower rates have been submitted to.

Mr. Wells, the barrister, who is the person princi pally concerned in opposing the late proceedings at the election for the ward of Fartingdon Without, attended the Justice Room on Saturday last, for the purpose of impressing upon the Lord Mayor the necessity of con vening a public meeting in the City to take means for alleviating the distresses of the poor, which were immea sureably great. Sir P. LAURIE, who was sitting at the time, said that he highly approved of Mr. Wells's object, and he enter tained no doubt of the readiness with which his Lord ship would agree to any proposition of the kind. Mr. Wells said that in Liverpool, Hull, Boston, Cam bridge, and other places, public meetings had been held with the view of g iving assistance to the distr esse d, and. he thought that London, at a period, the severity of which must be felt in some way or other by all, ought not to be the only populous place in which considerable efforts were not made. He was glad to have the oppor tunity of communicating with Sir Peter Laurie on the theme of the condition of the poor, and to have his ea-operation in the task of endeavouring to alleviate it. He also hoped that his Lordship would . convene a special meeting of the Court of Common Counell, in order that some money might be appropriated out of the City cash for a similar purpose, particularly as there was always money to an enormous amount in the hands of the City Chamberlain. If part of that cash were distributed amongst the members of the Ward Inquests, for the purpose of being judiciously divided amongst the poor creatures in eachward, a vast deal of good might be accomplished. He could not conjecture how the City cash could be better disposed of. Sir PETER LAURIE warmly concurred in the idea suggested by Mr. Wells, of giving the City cash in M i n. He could not help saying that these funds were very often misappropriated, and within the last year several instances of the kind had occurred. The Corporation bad now, he thought, an excellent opportunity of show ing that their liberality comprehended the feelings of charity towards the multitudes of distressed beings at their very doors. It was understood that a deputation will wait upon the Lord Mayor, whose benevolent disposition is well known throughout the ward of which he is Alderman, and who will, it is believed, most promptly concur in the two propositions which Mr. Wells intends to bring forward. GUILDHALL. Daniel Dagenam, the proprietor of the house, No. 1, Foundry -court, Cripplegate, was charged before Alder man Piric, with selling spirits on his premises without a license. City policeman 146, said that on Sunday morning, between three and four o'clock, hearing considerable noise and rioting in the prisoner's house,'he applied for admission, and on entering found about twenty persons drinking, smoking, and singing ; three women were standing behind a table, under which were two stone jars, one holding about a gallon, and filled with gin, the other containing upwards of two gallons of beer, both of which he seized and brought to the station-house. The prisoner, in reply to hip, (witness) acknowledged tisit he was the landlord of the house. Inspector Harrisson stated that after the licensed houses in the neighbourhood had complied with the law by closing their doors, this den, which was frequented by the most dissolute class of persons, was open for all who chose to enter, and gin sold at 21. a quarteru more than what the licensed victuallers charged. It was an absolute nuisance to the surrounding inhabitants. Mr. Alderman ham ordered him to pay a fine of or be imprisoned for one month. FRIGHTFUL RAILWAY ACCT• DENT. SEVERAL PERSONS DREADFULLY LACERATED. The melancholy intelligence we arc about to com municate to the public may be depended upon, it having been sent us by a gentleman who arrived this morning at the Euston terminus, and was one of the passengers in the Birmingham train to London ; from whose state ment it appears that a frightful collision took pLcc between the Birmingham and North Midland trains at Rugby, whilst the shifting of the carriages took place, on which occasion two of the latter carriages were smashed to pieces, and three persons were so dreadfully injured that they were expected to survive but a few hours. The accident is stated to have arisen from the neg ligence of the officer on duty who had the care of the red light, which he neglected to display. The officer, it is stated, was immediately taken into custody. The Birmingham train was uninjured, and the whole calamity fell upon the North Midland. The scene was of the most appalling nature, and nearly the whole of the passengers in the two carriages were more or less injured. Every attention was paid to the sufferers, who were conveyed to the head inn, and a surgeon was in immediate attendance. Dr. John T. Veitch was one of the passengers in the train, and afforded his professional assistance, for which he was remunerated by the Company on his arrival at the Easton station. . _ 1.4.•\ The statement of the servant of the Company having been apprehended, as stated above, we have since been informed is erroneous. The following is the official account : The mail train which left the Euston Station at half-past eight last night, on arriving at Rugby detached two carriages, which were to proceed on to the Midland Counties Line. The carriages were in the act of be ing passed from the London and Birmingham down line for this purpose, when the mail train, which leaves Bir mingham for London at 12, p.m. arriving very slowly at the station, ran unfortunately in contact with the crossing carriages, and caused contusions to four of the passengers, and a slight fracture of the collar•bone to a fifth. Surgical attendance was at hand, and every care taken of the parties. The immediate cause of the accident is now under investigation.—Evening Paper. ANOTHER FIRE IN DUNDEE, WITH 1.053 or Lie& —A fire burst out on Tuesday morning, betwixt five and six o'clock, in a two storey house, standing alone ow the west side of Annfield Road. The fire had its origin in the second storey, and is supposed to have been occasioned by the igniting of some sticks which the parties had left on retiring to rest by the side of the fire to kindle it in the morning. The alarm being given, a number of the neighbours were quickly on the spot; but the fire had gained such ground that it was utterly impossible for the occupants of the garret storeys to escape by the stair. At tention was immediately directed to their rescue. A woman, with a child in her arms, was let out at the garret window, slipped down the slates, and handed down by a trap. Other two children were taken out in the same manner : but, in putting the last child out of the window, the father lost his balance and fell over the slates, touching in his descent one o f t h e persons suspend ' ing the ladder, and shaking it so that the individual who had caught hold of the child let it got but its life was happily preserved by one of the par ties below catching it in his arms. The unfortunate man received se severe a contusion on the back of his head by the fall that he lived but a few minutes. From the ground flat all got out in safety. By this time (about a quarter past six) Alf. Coutts and his men were on the spot. A mother was still lamenting over a child, which she maintained was in the house, but wirieli had been consi dered all the time by those engaged in extinguishing the fire to have been in one of the neighbouring houses. About seven o'clock one of the firemen feeling a smell of flesh burning, directed the pipe towards the spot from which the smell proceeded, and gaining• admittance, he extracted the ashes of the cnild. The parent (whose name was Neilson, a ship carpenter by trade) and child were buried in one coffin, The roof fell in a few minutes before seven ; and the fire was got under about half an hour after eight o'clock, but not until the second storey had been consumed. The ground floor has alone been saved.—Dundee Advertiser. NORTHAMPTON BANK ROBBERY.—Messrs. Whitworth having received an intimation of the route taken by Haslock (the young man wbo had robbed them of 8004 in gold) and his brother, sent one of the town police to London yesterday week, who traced them to Shooter'e Hill, and thence to Dover, where the fugitives obtained passports for France under the names of John T. Hardy and Frank Hardy ; they then paid 201. to the cap tain of the Wellington steamer to take them to Boulogne, where they put up at, the Bath Hotel. Tho officer pro ceeded no farther than Dover, hut information reached I him that the brothers had gone to Havre by St. Omer, when the elder brother, being conscience-stricken, deter mined to return to Northampton, and was taken into cus. tody in this town a few days since.

WATCH YOUR WORDS.—The hoard raised round St. Bartholomew's Church, which is so constructed as to leave but a narrow passage between Threadneedle street and the Rotunda of the Back, now converted into the Dividend Pa y . °ifice, is complained of as being in its present state a public inconvenience. Besides, light being ! e - tircl; "T'l'll , d b; ee e grins , elesv. ,it s`ro. di fa:;:itit..: for the depredations of the class of thieves who never fail to watch the Bank at the periods of the year when the dividends are in course of payment, COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesterday being Plough Monday, a Court of Alder men was held, for the purpose of receiving the present ments from the various Ward Inquests. Considerable excitement prevailed in the crowded avenues to the Court. particularly with regard to the election matters of the Ward of Farringdon Without. GAMING. The Inquest of Aldgate Ward presented against a pmbling•house, kept at No. .5, Heneage-lane, and were .round over to prosoeute their presentment. INCREASE OF BAD CHARACTERS IN BRIDGE WARD. The Inquest of Bridge complained of several annoy amces. They presented that the wholesale dealers still persevered in refu , ing to take out their freedoms, and thus threw an almost intolerable weight upon those who were free, and who performed all the duties con tingent. They presented the coach and cab stand, in King William-street, and another street, as an obstruc tion to the public and the neighbourhood, aggravated by the horrible language of the drivers and others seek ing employment there, and they requested that the police should be directed to take any per sons so offending into custody, to be dsalt with by the Magistracy. They also presented that the wharfs between the Adelaide Hotel and Billingsgate, at which the steam-vessels received and poured forth multitudes, were the means of blocking up, particularly in the summer months, that part of the ward, so that the police were prevented from acting. They begged to recommend an orderly and judicious arrangement as to the transit of carriages to and from the steameis, and a prevention of the assemblages of idle boys and men reputed thieves there, a nuisance not only permitted but encouraged by the Magistrates, in consequence of their releasing without punishment or reprimand many persons of that description brought before them by the police, T hereby the police were deterred from taking up others, who were thus encouraged to laugh at and set at defiance the officers and inhabitants who endeavoured to remove them. The Loan MAYOR said that the presentment should receive the most attentive consideratio of the Court. PROTESTS AGAINST THE RETURN OF MR. COUSINS, FOR COLEMAN-STREET WARD. The Inquest of Coleman-street Ward presented that Mr. Cousins, one. of the gentlemen declared to be re turned a member of the Court of Common Council was not, qualified as an inhabitant. Mr. Coast and Mr. Taylor handed in a protest against the return of Mr. Cousins, and a claim that Mr. Bracher should be sworn in. Another protest, signed by Mr. Const and Mr. Pledger, and a third protest, signed by Mr. Strachan to the same effect, tvere also presented. It was decided that the protests should be returned, and the protesters instructed to. hand them to the Al derman of the Ward, to act upon them. FALSE WEIGHTS, OLD CLOTHES FAIR NUISANCE, &C. The lequest of the Ward of Portsoken presented against some traders who bad used false weights and measures ; and against the thousands who assembled in Cutler-street, in a sort of fair, to the total obstruc tion and injury of many shopkeepers, and greatly to the prejudice of the warehouses of the St. •Catherine Dock Company in that district, The presentment added, that complaints had, been repeatedly made, but no measures had been adopted by the Court to ob tain redress for the injured. The LORD MAYOR asked whether the false weights and measures had been seized? The INQUEST replied that they were in the posses sion of the Ward. They earnestly requested attention to the presentment, The LORD MAYOR-It should be laid before the next Court of Aldermen. The RECORDER—Yes, and it will be put in the in dictment if the evil be considered to be of sufficient magnitude. THE OBSTRUCTION AT THE ROYAL EXCHANGE. The inquest of the Ward of Cornhill presented that a large board, which had been placed at the Royal Ex change, completely blocked up the pathway, and that this passage , vas most dangerous to the pubic and the people residing in the vicinity ; and they requested that a safe and commodious footpath should be forthwith made. TRADERS NOT TAKIS UP THEIR FREEDOM. The Inquest of Basishaw presented that some of the inhabitants had not taken up their freedom. Four of their number had been presented for the last twelve years. The Foreman considered that a presentment, under such circumstances, was a mere matter of form. It was disagreeable to the gentlemen of the Inquest to make any return of the kind, and he wished to know whether it was imperative upon them to make any in future. Sir P. LAURIE said that the Inquest was bound to make the return, and the Court, he hoped, would soon have a remedy for the evil. The FOREMAN—We feel it to be disagreeable to be called on to take an oath as to a matter which is to be of no effect. Alderman Gisas—lt is your duty to make the return. Sir G. CARROLL—Is it not the duty of the Cham• heriain to see after these things ? The CITY SOLICITOR—Yes, under an order of the Court to the attorney of the Lord Mayor's Court. The LOUD MAYOR (to the Inquest)—The Court will take the subject into consideration. The FOREMAN of the Inquest—We hope, my Lord, that twelve years more will not elapse before something conclusive is done.—(A laugh.) INACCURATE POLL BOOKS. Mr. Wit.mAmi, who has been for some years mem ber of the Court of Common Council, presented a peti tition against the return by which he was ousted. The petition set forth, that in consequence of the inaccurate manner in which the poll book of Cordwainers' Ward was kept, particularly in the instance of one person, who voted for him, but who was not represented as having voted at all, and of some who voted without having a right to vote at all, he (Mr. Williams) lost the election by one vote only. Alderman GIBBS asked whether a scrutiny had been demanded ? Lotto MAYon—That subject cannot be argued now. Let the parties alluded to be summoned to at tend the next Court of Aldermen. In the wards of Cripplegate the Inquest presen tcd a great many persons who carried on business without having taken out their freedom. ODD OBJECTION TO THE RETURN OF LANGEOURN WARD. Mr. GUDE, one of the candidates for the representa• Lion of Langhouro, presented a petition objecting to the irregularity of the polling, and also to some unceremo nious langtiage Used towards him by the Alderman, who although he (Mr. Gude) was frilling, upon the recoils, mendation of the meeting, to be reconciled, rejected the proposition, so that the offence remained unrepaired and unalleviated. _ The REConina said that the petition could not be received in its present form. The Court could enter tain the subject so far as regarded the alleged irregularity of a:, poll, but they had nothing to do With personal al tercation. The FoßtiPaN of the Inquest—We assure the Court that we, the test of the inquest, are not cognizant of this. We have nothing to do with it. Mr. GLIDE said that as be considered himself iii sultel at a wardmote by the Alderman, ha begged to know to whom he was to apply for redress if i;.4 to that Court. fle had begged the Alderman's pardon for any thing which he might have said at which offence might be taken ; but the Alderman altniether declined to make any concession.— (Laughter.) The REconnnt—Then you had the advantage of being 'Defoe him with an apology?—(Laughter.) Sir RETELL LAURIE said that the law of England was open to Mr. Gude, but the question was rather too delicate for the Court of Aldermen to touch.— ( Laughter.) Surely, if the warthnote heard Mr. Gude insulted, they would put him right. Did any one else complain ? The INtXtf4l—No...---- (A laugh.) Mr. Gude said that the precept stated that the ward mots must be duly and orderly held. Now he could say that a wardritote, at sthich an insult was offcred to ono of the candidates could not be said toile duly and orderly held, His objection to the return comprehended the oftente given by the Alderman, and could not be sena• rated from it. He should like to know where he was was to apply it not to the Court of Aldermen. The itttonbi:n observed that Mt. Gude having been twentv-five years in the Crown Office, must be familiar with the means of obtaining redress. Mr. GODE —Than it would appear that a duel is the only alternative.—(A laugh.) The RECORDER—if you say much about that, we shall be obliged, as Magistrates, to bind you over to keep the peace.—( Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—Vou can easily separate the two subjects of your petition, and come again to this Court. Mr. GUDE—I cannot separate them, my Lord ; but I shall appear at the nest Court. TILE COSTUME OF THE COURT, AND ALMS TO THE POOR. The gentlemen, the Inquest of Tower Ward, having appeared at the bar without cloaks. The LORD MAYOR said," Gentleman, I regret to see you come to this Court without your proper costume." FOREMAN of the Inquest—Does you Lordship re ceive us ? The LORD MAYOR—I hale to express my regret that you neglect the necessary forms. FOREMAN—We consider, my Lord, that the money which livery gowns would cost, is much better laid out in benefiting the poor of ti,e ward. Sir PETER LAURIE--S 0 I thought when I was Lord Mayor, and I, therefore, was always glad to hear such an excellent excusz. I advise the Lord Mayor to receive the Inquest. The LORD MAYOR.—We never refuse, but those who come without gowns are received last, that's all. Alderman GIBB—In my Ward the Inquest p❑y out of their own pockets for the gowns. The FOREMAN of the Inquest—And we giv.7 out of our own pockets to the poor. DvUBLE: iti.TUßti The'lnquest, Vintry Ward, presented that on the election Mr. Green and Mr. Lepard had an equal number of votes, and no scrutiny having been de manded they wished to know whether a new precept would be issued for a new election. The Riseaninp. mid that the subject would be re ferred to the next Court of Aldermen. It is under stood that Mr. Lepard will not present himself in the event of a new election. TUE CONTESTED ELECTION OF FARRINGDON WITHOUT. Sir Pent! Lev ItIE presented a petition from the in habitants of Farringdon Without, to which he particu larly called the attention of the Court. Mr. Wells, the barrister, one of the candidates, stood at the her as counsel for the petitioner. The petition stated that a wardmote was held in the ward of Farringdon Without on St. Thomas's-dav for the election of sixteen persons to serve the office of Common Councilmen for the year ensuing. That Sir James Duke was the Alderman, and the sole legal presiding officer at the wardmote, and no other person had a legal right to preside or interfere in the proceed ings. That J. Blacket, W. Beckwith, R. Taylor, A. Galloway, J. Bedford, H. Price, J. Wells, J. Itemshaw, R. Obbard, E. Hodson, J. Charles, H. Marriott, J. Auderton, J. Edkins, W. Wollat, W. Harding, T. Barnard, and J. Sweet, were duly pro posed as candidates, and, after a show of hands, Sir James Duke declared (but in the correctness of which declnratio►o the petitioners did not concur) the election to have Wien upon all, except Welk, Barnard, and Sweet. That, immediately after such declaration, a poll was legally and duly demanded for Wells, Barnard, and Sweet, and opened at, four o'clock to the afternoon, and proceeded with for one hour, when the books were closed for that day, and the wardmote afterwards ad- , journed to the hour of eleven o'clock in the fore noon on the following day, to be again pro ceeded with at the place aforesaid. That the poll was accordingly again opened, and proceeded with on the following day before Sir James Duke. and so continued until between the hours of twelve and two o'clock, when Sir James Duke voluntarily, and without any legal or just cause, and for his own private purpose departed from this plan and election, and nomi• nated and placed W. T. Copeland, Esq., one of the Aldermen, to preside at the wardmote instead of him, during such absence, Sir James Duke taking off his purple gown, and putting it upon W. T. Copeland. That many votes were, during the absence of Sir James Duke, illegally polled for several of the candidates. That the petitioners were advised that by reason of such absence the poll, the holding of the wardmote, and the election thereby became vitiated and of no effect. After a fee words upon the injurious nature of such a prece dent, the petitioners concluded with praying to be at liberty to prove the allegations, and that the Court would declare the election null and void, and issue an other precept for holding another wardmote for the elec!ion of Common Councilmen for the ensuing year. Sir Pe TUR LAURIE said he was aware that the merits of the petition could not he entered into on that occa sion. The course to be pursued was to request the attendance of the petitioners, and their counsel on the next Court. day. Mr. WELLS said he considered it of great importance to the inhabitants of the ward that the petition should be entertained with all possible celerity. Sir JAMES DUKE begged to be allowed to say a few words. He was anxious to declare that all the allega tions wers perfectly correct, and he trusted that the Court, on such an occasion, would proceed, if possible, to the immediate. coasideratioa of the petition. The LORD MAYOR said it was quite out of the question to enter upon such a subject on that day. A full Court, and one unembarrassed with the multifarious business of Plough Monday, must discuss a matter of such a serious nature. Mr. WELLS declared that he was desirous to pro tect the petitioners from being damnified by delay or contingent objections. The REcoaDErt ti.aid that the Court could take steps to prevent the ward from being unrepresented. Mr. Wells and Sir James Duke again urged the strong necessity which existed for proceeding at once to the consideration of the petition. The LORD MAYOR repeated, and the law officers of the Court coincided with his Lordship, that it was quite impossible, consistently with the forms and regula tions of the Court, to proceed further in the matter at that time. _ . Mr. WELLS declared that the police rates were to be signed, and several ministerial acts were to be per formed, and that therefore the necessity for imme diate consideration was most pressing. Besides, he could prove at the bar that some of the candidates were acting as members at that moment. Sir PETER LAURIE said he did not think it possible that candidates, under such circumstances, could be permitted, or would themselves wish to act. The consideration of the petition was then appointed for next Court day. THE RIGHT OF OCCUPANTS ON THE DOR3ET ESTATE TO CARRY ON RETAIL BUSINESS IN THE CITY. The Inquest of St. Bride's expressed a wish that the long-pending question of the right of occupants of houses on the Dorset estate to carry on retail business in the City, should be brought to a close. The CITY SOLICITOR said that he had examined all the papers on the subject. It was the opinion of the late City Solicitor upon the agitation of the question some years ego that it would not ba safe to try the question of the right claimed as the per sons exercising the privilege had for a number of years used it. If, then, there existed an ob jection of that kind years ago, it was of course strengthened by the length of time that had intervened since it was given. He (the City Solicitor) had re ported to that effect to the Court of Aldermen, and he had received no instructions from them to proceed against any parties.—:Hear, hear.) The LORD MaYoe. intimated to the Inquest that they would in future act upon the City Solicitor's ex planation. Those who keep shops within the district of Lord Delaware's estate will therefore consider them selves, no doubt, at liberty to continue business with out taking out their freedom.—Adjourned. A VESSEL DESTROYED-A MAN BURNT. (From the Guernsey Comet.) On Monday last, at about twelve o'clock p.m., the fine schooner, the Veritas, of 179 tons burthen, Captain It. Peek, arrived here, in ballast, from London, (which place she left on Christmas-day), and ran into St. Strepson's harbour. As the Captain resides in town, he left the vessel in charge of the mate, Mr P. Gaudain, of Jersey, with orders to see the Veritas pro perly moored, as soon as the tide admitted of ,its being done. It appears that he and one of the crew who slept in the forecastle, were the only persons who re mained on board on Monday night. The mate, we understand, was left by the pilot ut about 9 o'clock. At a fins , minutes before three o'clock on Tuesday inareine, the mate of the English schooner Eliza, who was casting loose the chain before which she was moored, perceived that the Veritas was on fire. He instantly alarmed the crews of the other vessels in the harbour (amounting to 16 in number), in order to get all the assistance in his power, with the view to save the vessel from that destruction with which she was threatened. Providentially the wind, which was blowing from the south-east, and across the harbour, in the direc tion of the shipping, was very moe.erate ; but, tie it might increase, and thereby place the other vessels in imminent danger should the Veritas' sails and rigging fake fire, Captain Swain ordered the mainmast to be cut away, as the flames had already communicated to the mainsail, which was furled in the usual man ner ; Oen the mainmast went by the board, it curried away with it the foremast also, snapping it about fifteen feet above the deck ; and the whole fell infd the har;:our. The vessel was scuttled forward on the larbOard how, and by that means she partly filled when the wat67Ptsfrtiunded her. A good supply of water was then obtairitti ; 4nd by persevering exertions, the fire was got under at about seven o'clock in the morning. The first person who descended into the cabin was Captain Peak, who there beheld a hor rible spectacle—his late mat* burnt in a manner too shocking to describe! What remained of his human frame was found in an inclined posture, with his face toward the cabin floor ; and from this fact, it is cori;ec tured that he must have been sitting upon the after- , locker ; with his bead resting upon the table, and in that posture have fallen asleep. It is supposed also that ' a candle was upon the table, and that on the vessel taking the ground,when the water receded from her, she ' hated to the starboard, which caused the candle to fall on the cabin floor, among seine of the Captain's clothes which he had put off on his coming cn shore, and ig nited them. As poor Gaudain had only slept five hours since Christmas-day, (when he left London), it is probable that lie was in a profound sleep when all this occurred, and probably he was suffocated be fore lie could recover his self-consciousness, and thus fell a prey to one of the most horrible deaths of which human nature can conceive,—leaving a wife and three or phan children to bewail his distressing and heart rending Gaudain, we understand, was about thirty--three yea :: , of rage ; and it is with pleasure we respecting his sobriety record Captain Peek's I : 4l tuno"Y and industrious habitc 011ivant, of LONOEVITY NAGoCK.S.— • of the Ha barnpeter Coll no College,. on opening the front o% . - ford Arms Nett), Devil's Bridge, early on th# mom:7 e : the 30th ult., discovered a One peacock lying on the flag stone quite dead.

These beautiful birds had had the range of the liafortd domain upwards of thirty yegr3.—Cirrnorthett Jonk - n 1, NARROW EScAVg OF LORD CIIARLEB gErt. VEY.—The I3on. and Rev, Lord Charles Hervey and his lady a few days since were endeavouring to cross the river near the Rectory, Great Chesterford, for the purpose of inspecting the cutting down of some trees on the opposite side, when his Lordship perceiving the boat was taking water at one end, endeavoured to remove Ladv Harvey from it, and whilst doing so the boat capsized, end both of them were immersed in ;he water ; the foot-- man, a short distance off, perceived their perilous situa tion, and with prompt a:.'ill!eucc succeeded in rescuing them from a watery grave, THE EGYPTIAN FACTORY SYSTEM. The Pacha knew nothing of cotton-spinning, bat every body around him was willing to humour his whim, and profit by his ignorance. He paid like a prince for' old lead, and worthless French machinery, which was perpetually going out of repair, and which there were no arrangements for mending. Poor Fellah peasantry in the lowest state of ignorance were seized on en masse to work them and imprisoned in the factories till two kind-hearted kinsmen or friends came forward to go bail for each, that they would not run away. Those who had no friends suffered perpetual imprisonment there,and the whip was employed as prinitan mobile. They were allowed nominal wages of about 130. per day, but their accounts were only settled about every 12 or 15 mornths. Mean time they were advanced one-third in the shape of bread as an allowance for subsistence on aceouot at the rate of about lid. per day. The poor wretches were only given coarse bread from the Pacha's baker, ve.ho was allowed the monopoly of supply for the nominal' profit of the Pacha, and who charged them " Pacha's price." They:wanted many other articles, " for man cannot live by bread alone ;" so they were obliged to keep soma of their bread, and sell it to their families and extertral friends far milk, meat, or vegetables. They we.'e always kept on the brink of starvation, for they were' thoroughly dependent on the baker for subsistence ; and when he was out of inel or flour, or, peradventure, was en a journey, they were left to suffer the, pains of hun ger as they plied their looms. lam assured that in one of the best regulated factor:es under English superin tendence, it has been no uncoomon thing to find them !eft without food from breakfast time on Monday till supper time on Tuesday ! When the managers found the shuttles or mules moving faintly, and inquired the cause, they would perhaps find the poor patient wretches starving ! But they could not mend mat ters ; complaints were useless. They were working on the Paella's system, and, if they wished to keep their men alive, they must put their hands into their owes purses, and send to their own baker for a basket full to distribute in charity among them. Of course, Dr. Bow ' ring was not permitted to see such sights, Neither did he see how the poor workmen were provided for per force, when they were getting naked, by the distribution of pieces l of calico among them at " Pacha's price ;" nor how they were supplied with bee; at prime cost when a mill ox caught the plague or the staggers, and after year s of labour became insensible An the lash The Nazir must square his accounts at all 6 vents ; and the most approved plan was to cut the deca ased bul lock's throat, cut him up into fragments, and charge these to the workman's accounts at a rate that would repay the Peelle for what the animal cost years ago. This is a point in the Egyptian factory .vy stela to which English civilization has not yet attained. The happy result is, that the cattle may be neglected, e‘ver driven or starved in the work, and still the Nazir's lance-sheet shall exhibit no defalcation ! Doubtless your manufacturing readers will stare at the mention of . cotton spinning machinery impelled by oxen. Mais que voulez vous ? The Paeha would have manufactures ; hut be had no fuel in Egypt fur steam-engines, and no fall for water-wheels, except in the very bed of the Nile ; so he was obliged to content himself with oxen, although the act of changing or stopping for an instant altered the cards and spoiled the work. The Pacha, too late, found that he was riding a very expensive hobbyhorse, and so economy became the watchword in the factories. No time was allowed to clean the mar chinery ; even wiping it was declared a dead Joss, for so much oil was carried away thereby (independent of what was stolen and eaten by the half.famished work men,) and at last it became a point of emulation to work the driest and most squeaking machinery. The managers, who complained of this to " the Council of Public Instruction," got the charac ter of wasteful fellows. If they found a good workman• or an industrious hand in their factories, hand recom mended that his wages should be increased, to make a distinction between him and the idle and incompe tent, they were censured as innovation spendthrifts. Then to mend the matter, when recruits were wanted the pressgangs were sent to the cotton-mills, and often took away those who had learned something of the management of the machinery. Various practical re forms were suggested by the English managers and en gineers, which all stuck fast in the " Council of Pub lic Instruction," or in one of its subordinate divans, composed of men who knew no more of manufactures or machinery than so many donkeys. The result was that everything got gradually worse and worse, until at last the Pacha's 44 manufactories died a natural death. Despite all the ex peases bestowed on the manu facture, he never could produce one article fit for the market,and I know, as a fact, that his cotton-twist sent t Bombay, and thence to Calcutta. was returned to Cairo as unsaleable. " They wouldn't have it at no price." We need not wonder at this. The cotton had been wrought from the first amid dust and dirt, damp or sunshine, just as it happened, and the waste was worked up with it by order of the Council of P ublic Instruction and its filiere of Divans, on e e.onoinieel grounds. Not the slightest attention was paid io tem perature in the manufactories, and the working popu lation were left in such a destitute condition, that t he superintendents were occasionally obliged to keep gr pig's foot lying in the oil for the machinery, to pre vent its being used for food by them. The menu.. • facture of silk stuffs has been similarly abandoned, and the factory of Noudsel-Marsoud, in Cairo, is the only place where mus;:ets and small arms are now fabricated. The citadel there, and the arsenal here in Alexandria, rested from their labours in that line (except to execute repairs) even hclure the recent visit , and convention of Commodore Napier.
