EVENING SUN. SPAIN. The following is the expose of the motives of the pro ject . of law pr3sentql t the Cortes for the cession by Spain to this c Atntry of the islands of Fernando Po and Annobon : " The unhealthiness of the climate on the Sierre Leone coast, where are actually established one of the mixed tri bunals of justice, formed in virtue of the treaties. con cluded with Great Britain for the abolition of the slave trade, for the purpose of a summary judgment in cases of slave traders captured, demanded on the Part of the two contracting parties a. more salubrious Spot for the transfer of the said tribunal.. The SPanish Government had chosen the isles of Fernando Po and of Annobon, in the gulf of Guinea, belonging , to the Crown of Spain by formal cession, as spect fivl in the treaty signed at the Pardo, in March, 1778. Nfter the proposition of divers projects, then not exe cutable, England, on the 18th of April, 1839, offered to purchase these islands on reasonable terms, finding them more 'convenient than Sierra Leone for the protection of the clauses of the treaty of 1835. The mixed Commis sions, convinced of the advantage to be derived from the , abandonment of Sierra Leone, and of the facilities af forded for the enforcement of the execution of the said treaty by an establishment on one of these islands, which, though belonging to Spain, had since possession aban doned, from their uselessness to the nation, considered advisable to admit the proposition of England, and in order to facilitate the views of the two countries negotia tions were opened. The affair was concluded in April last, a report on which was laid before. the Provisional Regency, which decreed that, except the Cortes consent, the 60,0001. offered by England for the islands should be accepted, and ordered that, if the cession took place, that sum should be applied to the payment of one of the current dividends, and the surplus, if any, to that of the interest on the debt contracted with Eng land in virtue of the treaty concluded on the 28th of October, 1828. Thus proving the Spanish nation's desire of fulfilling out-standing engagements. In order to the definitive conclusion with the Plenipotentiaries of her Britannic Majesty of the treaty for the cession to England of Fernando Po and Annobon, his Excellency the Regent, during the minority of her Majesty Queen Isabella 11., with the consent of the Council of Ministers, has ordered me to submit to the Cortes the reasons which have determined the Government relatives to the afore named cession, and to propose to that corps, in confor- Tuity with article 49 of the Constitution, the following i.roject :—Sole Article. The Government is authorised to cede to Great Britain the islands of Fernando Po and Annobon, for the sum of 60,0001. offered, conformably to a special convention to be signed by the Plenipotenti aries appointed by her Catholic Majesty and her Bri tannic Majesty, an account thereof to be submitted to the Cortes after ratification. " ANTONIO GONZALES. " At the Palace, July 9, 1841." THE TORIES CAUGHT IN THEIR OWN (CLAP) TRAP. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) HULL, TUESDAY.—During the election for this town we had repeated over and over again the absurd lie that cheap bread meant low wages. The Tories iacessantly dinned this into the ears of their au diences (where they durst face any), not that they persuaded any thinking working men that such would be the fact, for their fallacies were generally exposed before their faces and they laughed at. It was not the low wages fallacy that gained the election, but hard cash, with—worse—intimidation the most extensive ever practised here. Well, the Tories are beginning to have their cuckoo cry realised in a way they had never anticipated. One instance, and a significant one it is, oc curred yesterday. The workmen and " lnmpers" em ployed by one extensive firm in the timber trade went to their masters and told them that at the election Sir John Hanmer assured them that if bread were cheap they would hare low wages, but that good wages would attend dear bread. Now said they, "We have come to you—who might and main supported the Tories—to test the princi ple thus avowed by them. Bread has last week increased 4d. to 6d. a stone in price. Now is the time for you to show that your Honourable friends are in earnest in what they said—We want a small pittance a day more to enable us to purchase the dear bread—we ask sixpence a-day increased wages." What answer did their consci entious Tory masters make ! They refused to advance them a single stiver, they might starve upon dear bread, for no more money would they receive. Therefore about 100 men left the yard, determined not to work until they received a money equivalent for the difference in the price of their bread. These timber merchants are deeply engaged in the Canada trade, and of course vehemently opposed to the Ministerial plan to admit good timber from the Baltic. The " lumpers" in their employ (ever tinployed in discharging their ships) have threepence per boor wages; they are not employed by the whole day, but only by the hour, and they cannot work more than nine hours and-a-half a- day (that being the period the officers of customs are on duty, and of course ships cannot dis charge in their absence), thus they receive 2s. 41d. per Jiera, or 14s 3d. a week, even supposing them to be em ployed every working hour in the week, which is very ra rely ease. How Wil l the Tories keep up the Corn-laws when these men come 't suffer from want during a long and severe winter, for ant of 14s. a week in summer, and bread verging upon 3 s. a stone, they cannot save for any contingencies. They say now they would be much obliged to Sir Walter James to furnish them with even some of the black bread of the foreigners he so much de rided at Bull. It would be a luxury compared with the privations they dread they will have to encounter now that the wages bubble has burst, and they hive the re fu'cel of 6d. a-day more to keep their families from starving. THE EFFECTS OF THE CORY. LAWS. The reductions' which have recently taken place in the !nate of iron in this district, and the consequent dis charge of large numbers of men from the Works, has produced an extent and degree of distress among the working classes truly afflicting. During the week we have seen more than one gang of unemployed men , who, after seeking for work at the different establish ments in this and the adjoining counties without sucoess, have travelled through the Forest of Dean, through Staffordshire, and into Shropshire, without being more fortunate. They then, its a last resource, -returned to this neighbourhood, and we heard one of tee poor fellows earnestly imploring employment for his meta only. This -is truly a dreadful state of things, hut are the prospects fur the future more cheering ? We regret to state our belief that they are not ; and the hopes which we indulged of a favourable re-action in trade, from the proposed alteration iii the CoTP laws, are dashed by the unfavourable issue of the elec tions. We shall not spectlate here on the course To be pursued by the supporters of free trade, and the enemies of the Corn monopoly, but we will l'Oeani farl that illustrates, in a very forcible manner, the ill etli..ets of the sliding (or, more properly, swindling) scale. The price of flour has risen in this district, within ;t few weeks, several shillings per sack, at a period when we are on the eve of a harvest which promises to be at T.ll-st an average one. 'This will grievously add to the ,utfteriegs of the poor —already too severe ! — and will furnish another instance of the evil of a law which enables a few great speculators in London and Liverpool by fictitious sales, and various other dishonest means, to enhance the price of the first necessarp of life to the labouring classes. This incident reminds us of an argument relied on by the monopolists in the course of the recent discussions in Parliament on the Corn laws, and which was also the great gun of the sup• porters of those cruel and emaciating laws at every •itistings in the empire, viz., that the reduction in the p r ice of corn , which would result from the partial r peal profosed in the corn tax, would be followed by a gorresponding fall in the wages of labour ; and that, cmsequeutly, the labourer and the artisan would be o jtter off for the a lteration, or even t he total repeal n fall when a reduction in that if the wages of labour, then, depend on the of the if they Y it follows as a try,tter of course, iat price of corn, emd erice takes place, surely of this clap-c -ihat when an advance occur, they must rise in the same proportion. We put i t_ t, then, sei,iously to those gentl , men who have availed diem' SO liberally trap, to state the advance they have . matte on the wages of those in their employment, since the . late rise in the tensive manufacturer, price of bread. We ask those and agriculturists who still supportex these odious laws, whether they are prepared to give the best proof of . their .t in the soundness of their strunent—carrying artisans end flto practice, and raising the wages of their. n labourersin proportion to the re cent advance tue,prim ithout lirany'a N future s - e. , cessary of life. If they act thus, they inconsistency, use this arg ument in tto be occasion ; but if they do not , the y must su bco a b. % 'pu c onsidered as men who have defrauded the lahcerer ot his wages, or as persons who, for factious and dishonest eu rpose::, have made use of an argument which they knew to be fallacious and unsound.—MonmouthMerlin- THEATItICALS.—A rumour prevails in this city, which, if authentic, cannot but promote much dis may behind the curtain. It is to the effect that our ex cellent and spirited manager, who has so long and so dauntlessly opposed a valiant front to difficulties and perils which would have disheartened, or, it may , be, crushed, many a man less resolute and enterprising, has been at length compelled to post a notice in the green-room stating that he will be happy to receive pro posals of engagements from ladies and gentlemen for the ensuing season, but that he grieves to state that, in con sequence of the almost total desertion of the theatre of late by the public, he will be obliged to form his salaries on a scale greatly lower than that which he has hereto fore been in the .iabit of awarding. This announcement will, we fear, cause the secession from our corps dra matique of many of its most valuable members. That it should come to this in the second city of the British empire ! Mr. Calcraft's zealous and most enterprising efforts in support of our national theatre must win for him the applause of every man who has the honour of our eountry at heart , and it is indeed disgraceful in the last degree to the people of Dublin that they have not seconded his able endeavours. The mere fact speaks libraries for our lack of taste, discernment, public spirit—nay, more, and of common intellect. It hag ' been well remarked that the prosperity of the drama in a state is ever proportionate with the civilization of the. people.—Dublin Paper. Up to Sunday afternoon we have had a saeaes sion dull, cold days during the past week constantly attended with heavy showers. We are sorry to learn that there is still a considerable breadth of hay out, the greater part of w hi c h i s a l rea d y un fi t f or use . On San- Monday ho was as however, the weather cleared u p about mid-day, and could desire ; our hopes warm, and sunny as our hearts thus raised were some= of favourable harvest weather air at disappointed by the showery morning and damp of yesterday.—Cambridge Ad wertiser. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. - --- - FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—The Times has written two articles, and threatens more, the purport of which is to prove . that which was already pretty generally known—that Sir R. Peel does not mean to be tied down to any particular course on assuming the functions of Minister. His primary object having been to get in, his secondary purpose will be to keep in ; and professions which were very useful to attain the` first of these views, would, if reduced into practice be very fatal to the second. To wreck the Ministerial vessel when in the hands of the Liberals, it was all very well that the Tory party should assume the fixedness of the rock ; but the rock of opposition is now to be dissolved into the quicksand of expediency, which will be assuredly fatal to the Conservative crew, whert the tide of electioneering triumph shall have receded, and left nothing but Tory principles for the Tory craft to rest upon That the expectant Premier has commenced his soundings with the view of following in the course of the Whigs, is obvioas fro - n the altered tone of the journals in his interest. Vacillation, which was the alleged crime of the present holders of office, is to be the great virtue of their successors, who are to have the unfettered option of going in ary direction that the circumstances of the moment, or, in other words, the preservation of their places;may seem to require. The Times has not even the moderation to claim for its protege the right of making one deviation, however flagrant, from the course he has declared to be the orly proper one, but reserves for him the right of going any way at any time, according as the political mind may act on the political weathercock. A statesman who is to be " all things by turns," will assuredly be " nothing long," and his career must inevitably be brief as a Nti nister. By trying to make himself " everything to every body," he will soon find himself, in the vulgar and some what self-contradictory phrase, "nothing to nobody." STANDARD.—The last number of the Edinburgh Review reminds us of a person at the Court of the un fortunate Louis XVI., who obtained from the populace the surname of Deficit. Now , as her Majesty's Minis ters are as well entitled to a distinctive title as their predecessors of the Cabal, or the Coalition, or the Taleuts administrations—none of them weaker or more wicked than the present—we respectfully propose that henceforward they bear the name of the deficit Ministry. They have the most indis putable right to the name. Their deficiency in all the qualifications of statesmen has been abundantly proved; but this is not what we mean ; we allude to the deficit which they have created in the public resources, which they make the apology for their most outrageous propositions, which, strange as it may seem, consti tutes their lba of merit, and their claim to public con fidence, and the anchor of their hope of a restoration to office. They surely who have, during six years laboured so industriously to create a deficit and now exult in the suc cess of their labours, must be rather proud than ashamed of the title we give them, the " Deficit Ministry." We are told, indeed, that the existing deficit is owing to the unforeseen casualty of the wars in China, Syria, and Affghanistan; but this is not doing justice to the "deficit administration;" their exertions to earn the title we claim for them preceded those wars. We have before us a return of income and expenditure for three years, ordered by the House of Commons on the 22d of June, upon the motion of the late Member for Falkirk who must not drop a tear over the political tomb of Mr. Gillon? He will be missed almost as much as his brother in modesty, gracefulness, and genius, Mr. Joseph Hume—but this by the way. We have before us, as we said, a return of income and ex penditure for three years-1838, 1839, 1840. Now, upon the first of these years we find a deficit of 441,819/., but there was no China war ; no Syrian war ; no Affghan war in 1838. Upon the second of these years we find a deficit of 1,381,9381., and still in 1839 there was no China war—no Affghan war—no Syrian war. In the third year Ministers found that they were going a little too fast in the deficit department, and they added five per cent. to the taxes, but still the desired deficit flourished in abundant " fructification," to borrow Lord Sydenham's figure, for at the end of 1840 we have a deficit of 1,750,543/., making in the three years a total of 3,574,3001.—a pretty deficit realised upon which to retire from business, were this the whole ; but this is only the `•fructification" of three years, and the pursuit of a deficit began much earlier, as most of our readers will recollect from our reference to Lord Sydenham's notable doctrine of " fructification ;" awl the seven months of 1841 already consumed cannot fail (consider ing especially the election expenses) to enlarge the minus quantity—the deficit is actually no doubt from seven to ten millions sterling.' COURIER—The Revue des deux Mondes or rather the writer of the eloquent article from which we so freely extracted yesterday, may be assured that without " transactions" of any kind with any party, or the frac tion of any party, Sir Robert Peel, with the " same ad mirable sagacity, ability, dignified, calm, and foreseeing patience," for the extraordinary and conjunctive posses sion of which he is so justly credited by the reviewer, will conciliate for his administration the support, in the main, and sooner or later, of all wise, patriotic, and disinterested men who, however hitherto classed, and sometimes viciously, under certain party ensigns, such as Whigs, Liberals, or Reformers, have yet certain great landmarks of constitutional principles in common with each other, and with the Conservatives, and which, as such, must ever constitute a broad and unpassable line of demarcation between them and the Radicals, Revolu tionists, and Repealers. The amalgamation of parties conscientiously according in the same fundamental points of political faith will be consummated by no compromise of principles on either side, nor ratified in the shape of any compact or coalition formally expressed or implied. There are, doubtless, precedents for such combinations and fusions of parties, but they are not generally such as have commanded public respect, even when governed by unimpeachable motives, and arranged between the most honourable men. The Government of Sir Robert will be, in the proper acceptation of the term, essentially a Reforming Government. Reforming, in the sense in which the illustrious Bacon defined it, when he bade us take heed that it be the necessity of " the reformation which precedeth the change, and not the desire of change that pretendeth the reformation." A GENUINE PATRIOT AND PO. LITICIAN. With candour in his heart, truth on his lips, and ho neur in his eye, no opponent could dispute his words, no supporter distrust his designs. The great mission of his calling, the advancement of justice, morality, and civili zation, would demand none but the most simple as well as the most honourable measures, for purity of motives presupposes purity of means. His ambition would be to found an empire of superior intelligence and happiness ; to dispel error would be his particular talent, and at his approach, cunning,. duplicity, ignorance, suspicion, and fear would depart in dismay • honesty and knowledge would be the attributes by which he would cause his age and his country to shine brightest above former days, and he would bequeath to future times the difficult task o f rivalling tweilencies which had hitherto been deemed unattainable. Such a one might, perhaps, tell us, that legislation was not intended to be applied to the minutia) of man's daily pursuits, went, and enjoyments ; that legislators rendero w d themselves liable to Suspicion when they meddled with matters evidently most pFANbIe to themselves. That those governments were most perfeet whose interference was but rarely needed in ordinary affairs; and that in bumble imi tation of the allwise Ruler of the universe, human rulers should aim at sitnplipity—not at complication; at liberty— not at restraint; that too little legislation was the prefer able extreme; that unnecessary legislation generated dis resi eet. to the makers and administratore of laws, and challenging Infringement became a fertile source of new crimes. Of monopolies like the Corn•iaw he might, perhaps, say that they would g enerate, if effective, a preponde rance of political interest , freq uentl y unmana g eable, and threatening to disturb the equilibrium, which the vast variety of mental and bodily powers, the constant development of fresh intelligence and skill, new wants and new gratifications, seemed best calculated to main tain, as in the universe so in the state. That laws, re gulating the supply of food—that the Corn - laws might not inaptly be ranged with the melancholy musings of the learned friend of Imlac and llasselas !—that the attempt, justly to apportion the supply of food to the wants of a constantly fluctuating mass of people, would. presume the regulation of the weather and the distri bution of .the seasons, and the insane fancy, that the sun would listen to our dictates, and pass frorn tropic to tropic by our directions—that the- clouds, at our cull, would pour their waters, and the Nile overflow at our command—and that we could restrain the rage of the dog star, and mitigate the fervour of the crab. Alas ! in mere f on d &legion might we not find (as has been 8: 34 4vBe of rfotthrhee earth,i n 1 found in the administration of all such laws) that some by tempests of the elemental powers would refuse our authority, and that (bow true is the application) riimititittles had perished which we found ourselves unable to prohibit or to restrain. .4.laa ! do not let us lay . the flattering unction to our souls, that WO could administer this great office with exact justice, and make to the different nations of the earth an impartial dividend of rain and sunshine !

STATE OF titADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) The gloom which hung over the Manchester market, in consequence of the continental bankruptcies alluded to last week, has been deepened by accounts of very exten sive faihires at Paisley, where thirteen houses are said to have stopped payment, at the latter end of last week, for an amount, collectively, about 300,000/. Though the im mediate effect of these failures upon parties resident inMan chester will probably not be very serious, they are calculated to inspire great distrust, and, coupled with two or three failures which have recently occurred in this town, had, no doubt, a material effect upon the market yes terday, which was one of the worst that has been ex perienced during the present year. Yarns and goods I were both depressed in price ; and very few sales could be made, even at the very lowest rates hitherto cur rent. The depression was probably in some degree increased by the unfavourable appearance of the wea- , ther, which, after three or four comparatively favour able days, has again put on a threatening appearance ; and serious fears are now entertained that a late and defective harvest may be added to the other causes which press with such tremendous severity upon the manufacturing interests. Two large spinning and ma nufacturing concerns, one at Macclesfield and the other at Stockport, which have been for some time past worked under the inspection of creditors, are about to be closed, in consequeneenf the unprofitable nature of the business. It is stated that the stoppage at Stockport will only be temporary; but that, we presume, must depend in some degree upon the future state of the trade. In the mean time, at all events, the effect upon the work people will be very serious. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MAnKET, MONDAY, JULY 26. We have had another brisk market to-day, and the buyers have purchased freely at last week's prices. Wool still continues to advance a little ; yet the manu facturers buy very sparingly, under the impression that the present prices cannot long be maintained. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, JULY 27.—There is nothing new in the state of this market—the same heaviness which has so long been noticed, is still too apparent, especially in woollens. In light fancies there is more doing, and fair prices are realized. In the Warehouses perhaps it may be said there is a slight improvement. On the whole, bad as things are, it is some satisfaction that business is no worse. - STATE OF TRADE AT STOCKPORT.—The utmost dis tress prevails among the manufacturing population of this town, in consequence of the number of hands out of employ, and the short time which has been worked at a number of mills during several months. This state of things, we are sorry to say, is likely to be aug mented, as the whole of the workpeople employed at Messrs. Lane's mills, 'situate in Higher Hillgate ; and Newbridge-lane, will be thrown out of employment this week end ,—they- having received notice that the concerns will be closed, and their services no longer required. The above extensive establishments have for several years been working under inspection. Upwards of 1,000 hands will be thrown out of employment by the stoppage of these mills. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. MANCHESTER, TUESDAY EVENING. As may be supposed, the celebrated and splendid meeting at Goodwood must have attracted a large majority of the Lancashire turf gentlemen. The root. this morning was moderately attended, but the ab sence of so many capitalists caused the bets to be neither heavy nor numerous. The prices will vary as letters reach from Sussex ; consequently, to-morrow the following figures may be very different from the specu lations then asked for. As near as we could glean, the closing prices against the horses names were as follows : 7 to 2 agst Lord Eglinton's Dr. Caius, Bst 21b—t 8 to 1 agst Lord Albemarle's Exit, Est 111 b—off 8 to 1 agst Mr. Smith's The Maid, Est 111 b—t 8 to 1 agst Mr. Payne's Welfare, Bst 71b—off 8 to 1 agst Lord Chesterfield's Henri Quatre, 9st 41b—taken 10 to 1 agst Mr. Goodman's Orelia, Bst 81b 10 to 1 agst Mr. Jones's Portrait, 6st 71b—taken 11 to 1 agst Mr. Gardnor's Monops, ist 21b 15 to 1 agst Duke of Richmond's Confusionee, Bst— taken and then offered 15 to 1 agst Bosphorus—offered 50 to 10 against Orelia and the Maid, taken. Henri was at first laid against at 10 to 1. We did not hear Isabella and one or two others in the South bettings named. Dr. Caius, Henri, The Maid, and Portrait were most in demand. Offers to take 30 to 1 Dr. Caius wins this event and the cup. THE GOODWOOD CUP.—Maroon was offered against yesterday at 12 to 1, at night two points less were taken, but 8 to 1 was snapped in a good channel at the opening of business at noon ; a point less would have been taken since. Charles was backed in scores at our price, and may be considered on a par with Pocahontas. Offers during the evening to lay 5 to 4 three beat the field. The field against any two freely offered. 7to 2 agst Mr. Greatorex's Pocahontas, 7st 111 b—t. 4to 1 4 to I agst Mr. Johnstone's Charles XII., Bst 131 b— t. 7 to 1 agst Lord Westminster's Maroon, Bst 51b—taken 8 to 1 agst Duke of Orleans's Nautilus, Est 121 b.—offered 8 to 1 agst Lord Chesterfield's Colwick, Bst 31b—offered Vapour was named, but no price transpired.

During his late canvass he called-on an elector named Robinson, who keeps an inn in the town, and the following dialogue took place :—" Well, Mr. Robinson, I am paying my respects to the electors ; and, although I know you are on the other side, I do not pass your door ; I wish to shake hands with you, to show I feel nothing but friendship for you." " Very . good, Sir Robert ; then, perhaps, ) , ou'll pay me that sixteen and sixpence you owe me." " Sixteen and sixpence, Mr. Robinson ? What sixteen and sixpence ?" "0, your steward knows very well ; he ordered a rent-day dinner for some of your tenants, and because they did not all come he would not pay for the number I provided for." "0, Mr. Hill" (turning to the -steward, who accompanied the great man in his canvass), "pay Mr. Robinson, by all means ; and pay him interest. Good morning, Mr Robinson." Mr. Robinson, however, was not paid, and being a sturdy fellow, and knowing something of Sir Robert and his steward, he attended at the nomination — to Sir Robert's no small annoyance,:for at the end of some of his well-turned periods about his love for his neigh bours, kindly feelings for the poor, &c., the portly pub lican saluted him with "Why don't you pay me my six teen- and sixpence ?" _and " Why do you turn your la bouretS(' off at Michaelmas, and send them upon the parish, instead of keeping them all the year round ?:' Tis was too much. " Gentlemen," exclaimed the proximate Premier, with his usual dexterity, but with not quite his usual dignity, " that foolish overgrown fellow thinks by these interruptions to alienate my affec tions from the people of Tamworth (! ! !) ; but I can tell him," &c. The laugh, of course, was turned against Mr. Robinson—if not the virtuous indignation e "the people of Tamworth ;" but he gained his point. The chances are, that he will be paid his " sixteen and sixpence."— Globe. BADEN, JULY 18.—The Grand Duke gave an audience to-day to a deputation of the Second Cham ber, which waited on him with the sanction of the two Chambers, to the project of law for the prolongation of the Customs' Union. His Highness, in answer to Dr. Bader, the spokesman of the deputation, said, " I had no • doubt that the two Chambers would unanimously agree to this proposal ; they are certain of my approba tion whenever they study the true interest of the coun try. I am convinced that our participation in the Custom house will, in the result, be of very great advantage to my subjects." THE EXHIBITION OF MANUFACTURES AT BRUSSELS. The public exhibition of the works of Belgian industry will take place at Brussels during . the ensuing months of August and September. Belgium, long celebrated for the variety and perfection of its pro, ductions, and for the extent and importance of its manu factures, has made during -the last ten years great pro gress—a progress which merits the attention of the com mercial world. In the provinces of Hainault, of Liege, and of Namur, as well as in Flanders, proofs are every where to be met with of the commercial and manufac turing industry which has made of a country limited in extent one of the richest and most remarkable for its trade. Her relations with England, which are daily in. creasing, have powerfully aided in the extension of her manufactures, and the progress of a science (steam navigation) which has become all but the mistress of the world, The foreigner will find his attention arrested by the immense factories of Seraing, by the cannon foun dries of St. Leonard, by the iron and coal mines, and the numerous manufactories of arms and machinery, be sides those of glass, carpets, cottons, and stuffs, which, from the rapidity with which they are produced, are sold at the most moderate prices. The exhibition, although made the occasion for the distribution of prizes, has a strictly commercial object, and is intended to afford the exhibitors an opportunity of disposing of their goods ; everything seen is, therefore, entered in a catalogue, with the name of the manufacturer and the price of the cow. modity. It is expected that the appr o a ch ing e xh ibit i o n will be attended 'by a large concourse of persons from all parts of the civilised world.. A few days ago, saps a letter from Marseilles, a deplorable event occurred in the village of' Bouc, on the occasion of a Marivori given to a sexagenarian widower, Who had ,just married a girl of 23, and who, having ex perienced some obstacles from the Cure, had resolved upon dispensing with the religious forms of marriage, and to be satisfied with the ceremony at the Maine.

HOME CIRCUIT, Maiiistou.3, July 29. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. -Sergeant TADDY.) Thomas Pilbeam, aged 32, by trade a gunmaker, was indicted for cutting the throat of Esther Pilbeam, his wife, with intent to murder. her. Bartlett Allen Chambers stated th at he was a cabinet maker, and resided at Faversham. .Knew the prisoner, who resided very near him. On the ,Ist instant the pri soner called upon him respecting s 3me furniture which he had bought of him some time provious. Witness ac companied him to the house, when he saw the prosecu trix. The prisoner said, " Now, father, here is Mr. Chambers; you may do what you like." She appeared to be in a bad temper. The prisoner added, " Why don't you alter your course, and live comfortably with me ?" She replied, that he might do what he liked, for she would not live with him. Esther Pilbeam, a young female of genteel appearance, and who gave her evidence with reluctance, stated that she was the wife of the prisoner ; recollected Mr. Cham bers accompanying the prisoner home on the Ist inst. She had been been very unwell for some time, and had just laid down on the bed. When Chambers went away her husband went with him, but returned in about twenty minutes, and went upstair to her. (The witness here said she did not wish to answer any more ques- tions ; but was told by the Judge that she must pro ceed, and tell the truth.) She then got off the bed and went down stairs into the back room, where she sat down ; her husband followed her, but she did not recollect exactly what then took place ; he however appeared to be in a very bad humour. Whilst she was sitting down her husband stood near her. At that time she did not observe any thing in his hands. She was talking to him about his drinking, and he said something about her not being angry. He then put his arm round her neck, and afterwards threw him self upon the floor. Was not aware that she had re ceived any injury till she was informed of it by a little girl who had just entered the room. Her (witness's) first impression at the time was, that he intended to strangle her. When her attention was called by the little girl, she found that her throat had been cut. Was quite sure that she received the wound at the time her hus band put his arm round her neck. George Crissfield, a butcher, stated that he resided immediately opposite the house of the prisoner ; on the day in question he heard a loud scream, and immediately ran across the road and went into the house, where he found the prosecutrix in one of the rooms holding a handkerchief to her throat ; she said, "My husband has cut my throat." He examined her throat and found a wound which extended about four inches, and deeper on one side than the other. She then fainted, and he put her upon a chair, and sent for medical assistance. As soon as a surgeon arrived he (witness) went to look after the prisoner, and found him lying on the ground in the back kitchen, with a clasp knife lying by his side open. Witness spoke to him, when he replied, " I have cut my wife's throat, and have been trying to cut my own, and this is the knife I did it with." (The knife was here pro duced—it was a penknife with a short blade.) He then examined the prisoner's throat, and found two trifling scratches. A constable afterwards came and took the prisoner into custody. By the Learned JUDGE—The wounds in the prisoner's throat appeared to bleed very slightly. Mr. Hollis, J. assistant to Mr. Giraud, surgeon, of Faversham, was sent for on the day in question to attend the prosecutrix ; he found her with a wound in her throat which extended from one side to the other ; on the right side it was about a quarter of an inch in depth, but on the left it was very slight. He dressed the wound and continued to attend the rosecutrix for about a fort night. He afterwards saw the prisoner, when he stated that he was sorry he had not killed her and himself as well ; he appeared very much excited. Mr. CLARKSON addressed the Jury on behalf of the prisoner, and called several witnesses, who spoke favour ably of the prisoner's general conduct. Mr. Sergeant TADDY, in summing up, told the Jury, that under the circumstances he thought they would not be justified in finding the prisoner guilty of an intent to murder. It was for them to say whether he intended to maim or do his wife any grievous bodily harm. The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of " Guilty of intent to do grievous bodily harm ;" but accompanied by a strong recommendation to mercy on account of his previous good character. The prosecu . trix also recommended him to mercy. Mr. Sergeant TAnDY told the prisoner that he had been found guilty of a very serious offence, and the punishment must be commensurate. The sentence was, that he be transported for the term of 15 years. OXFORD ClRCUlT—Shrewsbury, July 27. (Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN and a Special'Jury.) EVANS V. PRATT. In this case Mr. Sergeant Talfourd and Mr. Corbett appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Ludlow (with whom was Mr. F. V. Lee), represented the de fendant. The plaintiff and the defendant are both of them gen tlemen of fortune, resident near Wolverhampton, and are both members of the Allbrighton hunt, and fond of the pleasures of the turf, as well as of the chase. It appeared that in the early part of the present year some conversation took place between them with reference to the comparative merits of two mares, one of which, named Matilda, the defendant had previously sold to the plaintiff for 25i., and the other, a brown mare, to a Mr. Riley for 1001. The result of the conversation, of which the particulars did not transpire, and which would pro vably not have been very edifying if they could have been given in evidence, was an agreement between the parties to run Matilda and the brown mare four miles across a country, play or pay, each carrying 13 stone, and Mr. Thomas Holyoake, the master of the Allbrighton hounds, whose decision was to be final, was named as umpire. If the brown mare won, the plaintiff was to pay 25/., the price of Matilda, while it was agreed that the defendant should pay 1001., the price of the brown mare, if Matilda should be declared the winner, and the match was to come off on the Ist of March. Accordingly, on that day, Mr. Holyoake having ac cepted the office of umpire, and measured,out the ground, the defendant appeared at the starting-post with the brown mare, while Mr. Powell, a celebrated rider of steeple chases, acted as jockey to Matilda. It was ex pressly directed by Mr. Holyoake, in accordance with the universal laws of steeple-chasing, that neither of the mares shouldgo through a gate, and that if either did so, she would forfeit the race. At the winning-post the defendant's mare came in first, but Powell, who rode Matilda, immediately made a complaint to the umpire that the defendant had ridden through a gate and claimed the race, which Mr. Holyoake, after examining the ground near the gate in the presence of the two jockeys, decided had been won by Matilda. The defendant, however, refused to abide by this decision, and the pre sent action was commenced. The defence set up was threefold—first, a denial of the wager, which was proved by the production of the agreement between the parties ; secondly, that the race was won by the brown mare, which the defendant's counsel contended was the fact, as Mr. Holyoake had no right to import into the agreement any stipulations about not riding through gates ; and thirdly, that the race was illegal, being a steeple-chase, and run over hedges and ditches, fields, closes, and brooks, and not a regular horse-race run upon the turf, and therefore not within the protection of the statutes which regulate horse racing. On this third question Mr. Justice Coltman expressed his opinion that the race was legal, but reserved leave for the defendant to move to have the verdict on that issue set aside, and en tered for him, if the Court should think otherwise. The Jury, without hesitation, found a verdict for the plaintiff, with 1001. damages, and his Lordship certified for a Special Jury. NORTHERN CIRCUIT—Durham, July 27. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) CRAWFORD V. WILSON AND OTHERS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover damages for an injury received by him while going as a passenger from Stockton to Sunderland in a railway carriage. Mr. Knowles, assisted by Mr. Udall, conducted the ease of the plaintiff, and Mr. Dundas, with whom was Mr. Watson, that of the defendants. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Coun sel for the plaintiff that the defendants are directors and shareholders of the Durham and Sunderland Railway, which commences at a short distance from Durham, and terminates at a place called Haswell-bridge, where it is connected with other railways, one of which communi cates with Stockton. The Durham and Sunderland Rail way Company wore incorporated by act of Parliament, but they were not now sued in their corporate capacity, the place where the accident occurred not being a part of their line nor a branch or siding of it, but an extension of the line, belonging, in fact, to the Haswell Colliery Company, over which the defendants carried passengers for hire. In this respect they were, therefore, merely carriers at common law, liable to all the incidents of such an undertaking, one of which was that they under took to carry the party who paid for his transit safely and without injury during the whole of the journey ; but if from their neglect or default any injury did occur to such passenger they were bound to make such compensation in damages as a Jury in their judgment, under all the circumstances, thought right. It was under these circumstances, and not in their corporate capacity, that they were sued. They seemed determined, however, to raise the question whether they could be so sued pr not, for they had put every species of plea upon the record which was calcu lated not only to raise that question, but to throw every obstacle possible in the way of the plaintiff. The plain tiff is a gentleman of fortune, residing at Silton-hall. He is the son of the late Member of Parliament for the City of London. He was formerly in the army, and was greatly distinguished both for his mental and bodily powers. On the 3d of November last he took a place by the railway, to be conveyed from Stockton to Sunderland. The passengers were con veyed in an omnibus from Stockton to a place called the Foundry, where they got into carriages on the Has well Railway, and proceeded to Haswell-bridge, the terminus of that end of the Durham and Sunderland Railway. The Haswell Railway is at a much greater elevation than the other ; so much so, that the car riages from Stockton arrive on the top of the bridge, beneath which the Durham and Sunderland Railway runs. To effect the junction the carriages are run down an inclined plane by the force of their own gra vity in a north-west direction till they reach a point where a branch from the Haswell-road runs down an incline in a south-east direction into the Dur ham and Sunderland road. When the inclin into each other, it is necessary to fr.— direct the wheels into f)-- as mirrh« L ,s run -.a a switch, so as to one or the other of these lines oe desired, the proper position of the switch being such as would direct the coal-waggon from the Haswell branch into the Durham and Sunderland road. The carriage in which the plaintiff came was run down the first incline, and past the switch, where they waited for the train to come up on its way from Durham to Sunderland to take them onward. They had been standing there about three quarters of an hour, when, it being then between six and seven o'clock, and there being neither light, signal, nor bell, to give warning, a train of twelve loaded. coal waggons, weighing together upwards of 40 tons, was di covered rapidly approaching on the same line, the switch not standing in a proper manner, so as to conduct the coal waggons down the line they should have gone, but so as to bring them- directly on the .carxiages.. The alarm was given to the two nearest carriages, and the passengers had just time to get out, and escaped unhurt; but before warning could be given to these in the car riage in which the plaintiff was, a fearful collision took place, by which the carriages were forced up the inclined plane, at the top of which two of, the waggons got off the rails, and were overturned. When the plaintiff got out he was so mystified, that in answer to a question, he insisted that he was going to Stockton, while, in fact, he was on the road from that place. The extent of the injury he received did not ap pear at the tithe, but blood was upon his face. When things were put to rights he entered the carriage again, and was conveyed to the Sunderland station, when an omnibus received the passengers, but wheu it got on the rough road he was obliged to be taken out, not being able to bear the motion. A Mr. George Moon, a shipowner of Sunderland, who knew him, conducted him to the town, and, surgical aid being procured, it was discovered • that his cheek bone was broke; and forced into the socket of the eye, and he had received a violent concussion of the brain, and was, generally speaking, shaken to pieces. Ha lay in a precarious and most helpless state till the end of December, when he was removed home, but soon after suffered a relapse, and found it necessary to return to Sunderland for the benefit of surgical and medical advice. From a strong man he was reduced to a state of great weakness, in which there was every probability he must continue to the end of his days, and from being a person of very vigorous intellect was reduced to comparative im becility. One remarkable effect was produced which would alone speak for the severity of his sufferings. At the time of the injury he had not a grey hair in his head ; within a month after the whole head of hair was changed per fectly white, and still continues so. It might be thought, said the Learned Counsel, that after such an oc currence, the defendants would at least have tendered their aid towards his recovery, and have so far shown that they possessed the common feelings of humanity as to have inquired from time to time after his health and state ; but no—no such inquiry was ever made, and when the plaintiff seeks compensation ut their hands for an injury for which, indeed, money can never repay him, he is put at arm's length, he is set at defiance, and a doubt is pretended to be thrown upon the fact of his having ever existed. The Learned Counsel concluded his address by a powerful and eloquent appeal to the Jury to mark the case by their verdict in the manner which it deserved. The necessary evidence being given to prove the case, Mr. DuNDAs submitted to the Court that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, and contended that they were a cor poration, and could be sued only in their corporate capa city. He read from the act of incorporation the several clauses constituting the Company, empowering theta to purchase lands, make the railroad, with by-ways, side ways, and all things necessary for their purposes. Mr. KNOWLES replied, that the Act incorporated the Company to make a railway and carry passengers, &c., between Durham and Sunderland, and not between either of those places and Stockton, which was an after thought, and undertaken by them just as any other per son would contract. All the by-ways and side-ways au thorised by the Act were to be " for the purposes aforesaid" —that is, for the traffic between Durham and Sunder land. Nor could the incline, where the mischief was done, be called either a by-way or a side-way, it being, in fact, an addition, extending beyond the terminus of the Parliamentary line. The Learned JUDGE said he would not stop the case, but, whichever side had the verdict would give leave for the other side to move the Court above. Mr. DUNDAS then addressed the Jury in an able speech for the defendants, and The Learned JUDGE having summed up the case, The Jury, after a short retirement, returned with a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages, 150/. The smallness of the damages appearei tip create gene ral surprise. EXTRAORDINARY CASE. On Monday evening a youth, named Arnold James Fades, in the service of Mr. Chapman, surgeon, in Lower Tooting, committed suicide, by hanging himself to a beam in a hay loft on the premises of his master. He was found by Mr. Chapman's son, who took all the steps usually adopted to restore suspended animation, but without effect. It appears that the boy was led to commit the rash act upon a discovery made by his mistress that he had embezzled numerous sums of money given to him by her to pay the trades men in the neighbourhood. Mrs. Chapman threatened to tell deceased's master, and sent for his father, but be fore the arrival of the latter the boy was found as be fore described. INQUEST ON THE BOtY. Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held by Mr. Car ter, Coroner for Surrey, at the Castle Tavern, Tooting, on the body of the deceased youth. One of the witnesses was Mrs. Chapman, and, her evidence having been taken, the following extraordinary scene occurred : CORONER (having read over to the witness the state ment she had made)—l have not yet sworn you, Madam ; have the goodness to take the book, and attend to the words of the oath. Mrs. Chapman (greatly agitated)—Oh, no, Sir ; I will not take an oath. The CORONER courteously insisted upon the witness swearing to the evidence she had given, otherwise he must strike his pen through the whole of it, observing, also, that no person could reasonably hesitate to swear to that which they knew to be plain matter of fact. To the great astonishment of all present the witness still persisted in her refusal. She said that all she had stated was, to the best of her recollection, perfectly true, but that she was almost in a state of distraction when the occurrences she had detailed took place. The Coroner still insisting, the witness rose from her seat in great mental agony, and, bursting into tears, implored that she might be excused from taking the required oath. Mr. Chapman (witness's husband) —Really I see no reason why you should not swear to your statement. You know it to be true, and as a Christian you can safely verify it by the oath which the law requires. Witness (weeping bitterly)—Oh, spare me ! I cannot take an oath. The depositions were again read over to the witness, who declared that every word was correct, but still re fused to be sworn. CORONER—Then, Madam, it will be my painful duty to commit you. Mr. Chapman--I consider, Mr. Coroner, you are car rying this matter too far. I cannot allow my wife to stay here any longer. If she does, she will be laid on a bed of sickness. CORONER—You must allow me, Sir, to know my duty. I am bound by law to take all evidence upon oath. Mr. Chapman—With deference to you, you ought to have administered the oath to Mn. Chapman before you heard her evidence. S'he never had the least idea that she would be required to make the statement upon oath. The CORONER expressed his astonishment at this sug gestion, and told Mr. Chapman he must be perfectly well aware that the oath must be taken. He then stated that he should be obliged to adjourn the inquest and commit Mrs. Chapman, upon which Mr. Chapman earnestly in terfered to induce his wife to take the oath, which she at last did, but fainted away at the same moment, and was carried out of the room. • _ _ _ The Jury being fully satisfied that not the least blame could be attached either to Mr. or Mrs. Chapman, re turned a verdict " that deceased destroyed himself while labouring under temporary insanity." 'EVENING- SUN._ THE CORN-LAWS. A meeting of the working classes and non-electors, convened by placard, was held in St. George's Fields, St.. George's-road, on Monday evening . last, " to receive the report of the non-electors' committee (which was ap pointed at a meeting held just before the election), and to resolve upon the best means to be adopted by the working men of Manchester at the present important crisis, for obtaining the total repeal of the man starva tion acts." About 1,000 persons were assembled. Mr. John Kelly was called to the chair. He read the Report of the committee, which congratulated the meeting on tho successful termination of the contest in this borough between the supporters of the bread-tax and the enemies of that atrocious injustice. It then stated, that, as many persons who voted for the anti-bread-tax candidates had suffered through their conscientious exertions in the goon cause, the committee trusted that the working classes would show their sense of the meritorious conduct of their friends amongst the electors, by supporting them by all means in their power. The report then expressed a re gret at the general result of the elections, and recom mended union amongst the working and middle classes, and energy in the cause,which would soon show theGovern meat that they could only hold office by doing justice to the people. The Report also stated that a list of elec tors who voted for the anti-bread-tax candidates would be printed and published. Mr. Finigan then addressed the meeting on the miseries which the Corn laws inflict upon the working classes, and moved a reso lution to the effect, " That this meeting of the working men of Manchester has seen with indignation the result of the late general election, by which a majority has been returned to Parliament in favour of the unchristian monopoly of food. That so far from representing the wants and wishes of the community, the majority of the new House of Commons represents a greedy band of monopolists, by whose corrupting and coercive arts they have been elected for the purpose of plundering and op pressing the great body of the people. The resolution then stated that, under these circumstances, and having no present hope but in the firmness of a gracious and pa triotic Sovereign, the meeting agreed to an address to the Queen. The address was also read. It expressed senti ments similar to those embodied in the resolution, awl contained a respectful request to her Majesty to recommend the repeal of the Corn and Provision Laws to the new Par liament, and to dissolve it forthwith, if it should refuse compliance ; and further, to exercise her royal preroga tive, by dissolving every succeeding House of Commons which shall refuse to do justice to the people, M- M`Gowan seconded the resolution, which was • by Mr. Acland, l l the Anti-Corn-law Ip a fearful picture of the state -0 '- cultural counties , Were not' - supported ..,user, who drew tne labourers in the agri , ..ou stated his firm belief that, if there soon a change for the better in their condition, nothing could avert an impending revolution. The re solution was passed with applause ; and, on the motion of Mr. Daly ' it was resolved that Earl Fitzwilliam and the Earl of Radnor be respectfully requested to present the address to the Queen ; and that the Chairman write to their Lordships, begging that they will avail them selves of their privilege as Peers of the realm, and ex plain to her Majesty at a personal audience the griev ances under which the working . men are suffering, in consequence of the corn and provision monopolies.—The meeting separated about half-past nine o'clock.---Man chester Guardian. -S CORN AVERAGES.
