FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. GLOBE.—The Conservative journals are filling up the the time, until the meeting of Parliament, in placing daily bandages over the public eye, to keep it still in the dark as to the intended movements of the Tory Govern ment. Their present art is literally their mystery, and he whe can say the least in the longest space shows himself the most useful partisan of the ex pectant Itinisary. The allegation that the pro per use of words is to conceal ideas seems to be no longer a bon mot, but a truth, which is being daily reali'Sed in the columns of the Tory newspapers. The Times and the Herald of this morning have run almost a dead heat in the race of unmeaning ver bosity—though the latter wins by a length, having turned the column in advance of its antagonist. The article in the Herald is a drowsy amplification of two words—Experientia docet—a transition of which it ingeniously fills nearly half a sine in furnishing. The Times opens well with a solution of two or three of the most elementary sentences of Blackstone in a stream of pompous wordiness, and takes up considerable space in drawing out the intelligence that this country was for merly divided into counties, hamlets, and parishes. Our contemporary has, however, got somewhat into a mess towards the close of his article, for he claims from Sir Robert Peel the undoing of those things which he himself helped to do ; while in another part of the paper he is called upon to carry, into execu tion 'the very measures to which he has been the chielimpediment. Thus Sir Robert Peel is to oppose the Poor-law Pill, which he helped to carry, and has pro mised to maintain ; he is to attack the establishment of rural police, founded entirely on a model of his own; and he is to repudiate the principles of Parliamentary pri vilege, which a short time since he, in conjunction with Lord John Russell. so stoutly contended for. In an other part of the Times the Hon, Baronet is invoked to promote free trade, his opposition to which caused the overthrow of the Liberal Government ; and, indeed, it is clear, from the inconsistencies demanded of him, that his party rely much more on his flexibility than his principle. He may have succeeded in rendering him self the point of union between the contending interests of which the Tory body is composed -, he ,may have given an arm to pne on each side, and he may have offered to bind himself hand and foot to opposite sec tions, for the sake of inducing them to lean temporarily , towards him; but what will be his fate when these con flicting interests all strive to lure him in their own di rection, and the trunks of long, Tory growth, which he has bent, not broken, rebound into the stubborn attitudes from - which he has allured them into momentary flexibi lity ? _ . _ STANDARD.—The newspaper supporters of the " deficit Ministry" appear to be agonised by conflicting doubts of what Sir Robert Peel's policy will be when called upon to succeed Lord Melbourne in the administration of the affairs of the country. They are indignant beyond measure that he has not afforded them the opportunity of oltjecting to it on any' more tangible ground than a general reference to his al ready recorded opinions. They are naturally anxious to be made acquainted with the particular measures which the majority of the House of Commons may be invited, to support, in order that they and their patrons may shape their course accordingly. Lord Melbourne has already shown, on numerous occasions, that he is not above being taught by his oppertents - -: "it'MV A could Sit froließ - Peer - but have Wen provokel to dew' Ate from the delicate and dignified course of re fusing to prescribe remedies for the patient until he is regularly called in," his Lordship would no doubt adopt just so mach of his " treatment" as would afford plausible materials for a Speech from the Throne calculated to meet the emergency of the moment. His Lordship's newspaper advocates are evidently di vided in opinion as to what they are to expect from the Right Hon. Baronet, and are accordingly prepared for any alternative. If he should continue to advocate the measures of temperate Reform, which have hitherto characterised his policy, he is to be liable to the charge of plagiarising the views of her Majesty's present Ministers ; and should he refuse altogether " to grapple with the great question of fiscal reform," he will render himself even more obnoxious to their censure. Whatever be Sir R. Peel's intentions, therefore, it is perfectly clear that they will be equally obnoxious to the criticism of a large class of the supporters of Ministers. The country has no need to apprehend that Sir Robert will plagiarise the policy of his predecessors, but there can be no substantial reason why he should refuse. to persevere in his own course of moderate and temperate reform, because he has refused his assent to those extravagant measures of fiscal refon which were proposed by a Cabinet in ex tre.tnig, to save it from the consequences of long years of previous misgovernment. The anticipatory charge of plagiarism against Sir R. Peel comes with an ill grace from the supporters of a Ministry which is indebted to . him for its ability to carry the only beneficial measures it has hitherto attempted. It was not only the gross assault projected by the Government on the great interests of the country that deprived it of its confidence, but the fact, proved by the repeated majorities of Parliament against it, that it had long lost the power of legislating on any im portant measure without the assistance of its Conserva tive Opponents. The Whig Budget was certainly the last drop to the already brimming cup of the country's endurance, but it is equally notorious that it was a far larger one than was necessary to occasion its overflow. The alternative of a second dissolution of Parliament is one to which even the O'Connell Administration, selfish and profligate as they have proved themselves to be, dare not advise her Majesty to resort: but if they should, she has, we are satisfied, too intimate an acquaintance with the constitutional rights of Englishmen to dream for one moment of adopting it. The struggles of the faction are fierce in proportion to the hopelessness of their con dition, and it would therefore be as unwise as ungene rous in their opponents to visit too harshly the grotesque Contortions by which they seek to braien out their defeat. CO-I RIER.—We have, on former occasions, adverted • to the .primary ca uses of manufacturing condensed at depressio nhom e andthe , under they may, indeed, summarily be two heads of overtrading and overbanking abroad:- The prosperous sod uninterrupted car eer f or many years of manufacturing industry,uec accumulation of c a pi- Lancashire for example, led :to an overflowing urnti tals and a boundless expansion of credit. Had these real capitals only been wisely restric o t m ed s, to the •ini es ment in cotton mills and power lo gra dual extension of manufacturing power could_ not not have shot far ahead of the capacity for con sumption. Unfortunately-, however, speculation . took , a far other 'and less legitimate direction_i _tilf--. che: ? ler....people must nettls — eifibirk lir the coinage of nioney as well as in the manufacture of calicoe:s banks of issue, discount, and deposit numberless started into existence on all sides, the concoctions of brainless projectors,- or something worse, and the crea tions of a year. The promise of open credit accounts attracted shareholders with funds, and more without, and the unlimited as facile fibricatim of " flimsy" sti mulated the fary for the construction of more factories and the over-production of more fustians. Nor was the rage for bank-making limited to the locality where it was first originated. In the laboratory of the cotton and woollen districts of Lancashire and York shire, in fact, banks were compounded for all England and Ireland, literally from Manchester to the Land's-end, and for all Ireland. It was not difficult for a sober looker-on to foretell the issue. Railways, with a thou sand other speculations and schemes less laudable in their object, came to crown the banking mania, from which arising, and by the money credit facilities of which sup plied to repletion. Shall we wonder that the explo sion came at length ; ought we not rather to admire that the combustible materials smouldered so long without bursting forth into • consuming flame ? The enumeration of joint-stock banking follies authenticated beyond dispute were an endless task. The failure of two manufacturing concerns some two or three years ago, developed the extraordinary fact of one bank being the chief creditor for cash advances for some two or three hundred thousand pounds in each case, with no security but bare walls and machinery worth not much more than a tithe of the amount ; and of such enormous instances of overbanking mismanagement the history of almost every MancheAar joint-stock bank affords preg nant evidence. Trading convulsions in the United States and elsewhere came to consummate the ravages of over producing and overbanking at home, and with markets which they had overstocked everywhere on the face of the globe, and banking credits woefully curtailed at home, Lancashire spinners and manufacturers find them selves inevitably compelled at the eleventh hour to relax the steam pressure, to work short time and lessen pro duction, until in the regular action of trade a healthy balance shall o is a true anndeeme be struck with consumption.

STATE OF TRADE. (Front the Manchester Guardian.) ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, AUG. 2.—The mar ket to-day has been quite equal to that of last Monday. There has been a brisk demand for flannels,. and many have been sold at rather better prices. Beside the mer chants, there have been several of the large manufactu rers to-day in the market, who have bought rather freely. The stocks on hand have been considerably di minished the last month ; but July, August, and Sep tember, are generally the best months in the year for the Blackwater market. Wool still maintains its price, but the manufacturers have bought very sparingly. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET - , TUESDAY, AUGUST 3. The demand for middle and low-priced woollens, both plain and fancy, was tolerably brisk to-day; prices, how ever, have not improved. In superfines there was little done. In light fancies there was less cause of complaint. Wools are firm. Business in the warehouses has not un dergone any material clAnge. LATEST BETTING AT MAN CHESTER. MANCHESTER, TUESDAY EVENING. It appeared, both ftom the strength of the room, and the absolute desire to execute business, that the Goodwood events have not exactly suited the Lanca shire books. Be that as it may, we never remember such a sample of business before. Wolverhampton races and the Pottery meeting being actually " on.' A variety of events were spoken of, not forgetting the Mostyn Mile. This at once shows that real business was not in fashion. The annexed are a few of the offers, &c., taking up time until nearly two o'clock. THE CuP (THIS DAY).—Even betting, then 5 to 4, and after 6 to 4 offered agst Bellona. THE COPELAND HANDICAP (TO-NORROW).-2 to 1 against Bellona (taken, then 5 to 2 offered) ; 2 to 1 against Ararat (offered) ; 4 to 1 against Ruler (taken); 4 to 1 against Dr. Caius (taken) ; 5 to 1 against Bellona winning the two (taken) ; to against Mustapha Muley for the Cup and St. Leger (taken). WOLVERHAMPTON STAKES.-50 to 20 against The Corsair (taken) ; 7 to 2 agst Recorder ; 5 to 1 agst Black Bess ; 7 to 1 agst The Currier ; 8 to 1 agst any other. THE LEA3IINGTON STAKES.-7 to 2 offered on the field. ST. LEGER.-6 to 4 agst Coronation (taken) ; 4 to 1 against Van Amburgh (offered) ; 8 to 1 against Middleham. EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.—The works at the eastern part of Chelmsford are rapidly progress ing. The embankment to form the line from Spring field over the river Chelmer has been raised to within a few rods of the bridge now erecting, by which the line will pass over New-street ; the arch of the bridge is completed, and exhibits a skilful piece of workmanship; it is supported by ten buttresses on each side. The em bankment. also, at the western side of the town is fast approaching the river Cann. These two contracts, which are expected to be completed early in the spring, will form about two miles of the road in our immediate vicinity.—Essex Herald. _ _ THE OYSTER SEASON.—The sale of oysters commenced this morning at six o'clock at Billingsgate, where forty sail of vessels were moored last night, and it was expected that the fleet of oyster smacks would be in creased to sixty with this morning's tide. Mr. Gold ham, the chief clerk of the market, and " yeoman of the water side," was busily employed during the whole of yesterday in making arrangements to prevent confu sion and robberies formerly so prevalent at Billingsgate when the hatches were opened at midnight. A party of the City police have been retained to preserve order and prevent accidents among the thousands expected to at tend the market this day. The supply is good both in quality and quantity, and Mr. Goldham reports that the oysters are finer this season than he has seen them for se veral years. MARCH OF IMPUDENCE.—An impudent trick was practised yesterday morning, about 11 o'clock, in High Holborn, by a " shabby genteel" fellow who was loitering near a book-stall opposite Day and Martin's. A gentleman who had been looking for some time at a volume which was lying on the stall, marked 7s. 6d., at length took it up, and, thinking that the individual above alluded to belonged to the shop, said to him.— " I will give you ss. for this, if you like." " Why, Sir," said the man, with the most perfect nonchalance, " busi ness is very bad, so I suppose I must take it." The gentleman dropped two half-crowns into the fellow's hand, and he was out of sight in a moment. The shop keeper, who had been busily engaged, happened to per ceive the gentleman walking away with the book, and stopped him, when an explanation took place, and the gentleman had the Mortification to pay a second crown for his " bargain." SHOCKING ACCIDENT FROM WINDOW CLEANING.—On Monday afternoon a shocking accident happened to a young woman, named Helen Labern, 19 years of age, housemaid in the service of Mrs. Wagstaff, a lady residing at No. 24, Lower Belgrave-place, Bel grave-square, Pimlico. It appears that, she was cleaning the first-floor window, when she let go her hold and fell into the area, a height of nearly 30 feet. The poor girl was taken up in an insensible and bleeding state, and conveyed to St. George's Hospital, where she was at tended by Mr. Lee, house surgeon of the institution, when it was found that she had received a severe lacera tion of the right thigh, besides Many other severe in juries. The poor girl is not expected to survive many days. This is another instance of the improper practice of allowing young females to expose themselves i n so dangerous a situation in cleaning windows. ANTI-CORN-LAW MEETING AT ISLINGTON. —A preliminary meeting was held last night at the Thatched House Tavern, in Islington, for the purpose of taking the necessary steps for the formation of a branch Anti-Corn-law Association. A deputation from the Society attended. Mr. Richmond took the chair, and shortly stated the object of the meeting, and his hopes that the great measure they were struggling for would soon be carried triumphantly. The parent Society at tributed some importance to the formation of a branch society in Islington, as the character of that district was in general Tory, and they hoped that the formation of such an association would act as a beginning to a more liberal state of feeling and opinion. Mr ° . Wickham, of the Metropolitan Anti-Corn-law Association, then addressed the meeting, and stated the desire of the Asso ciation which he represented to organize the metropolis into regularly-constituted associations, having for their great object a repeal of the Corn-laws. Already three tourths of the Metropolitan districts were regularly organized, and the system was being carried out in the neighbouring counties of Kent and Essex. The ques tion that an auxiliary association be formed, was, after some discussion, triumphantly carried. The necessary arrangements having been made, the meeting sep ara t e d. DREADFUL O CCURRENCE.—A dreadful oc currence has happened at the Giant's Causeway. On Tuesday, the 20th of July, a party of fishermen be longing to the above place r discovered the b o dy o f a female lying in a small port immediately under that part of the Causeway called the Chimney-tops. The body was recognised by several persons in the neigh bourhood as being that of a woman who had been ob served wandering about the Causeway on the previous Sunday, who had also been met by a man named Harris going in that direction on Sunday morning, who, on questioning her as to where she was travelling to, was told that she was in search of her husband, who had left her, and as she was so nigh the Giant's Cause way she intended going to see it. It is conjec tured, from the place where she was found, that she had fallen from the Chimney-tops, which is one of the most elevated and dangerous points of the basaltic columns—so much so that the most adventurous tourists are unwilling to ascend it. Her skull was frac tured from the concussion 'she had received in her descent. On searching her person there were found ninepence in copper, and a written character, supposed to be of her self, in which she is called Jane Glass. The documentis signed by eight persons, and dated from the parish of Aughentulogh.—Londonderry Sentinel. SUICIDE FOR LOVE.—On Tuesday evening an inquest was held at St. Nicholas Southelmham, nearßun gay, on view of the body of Priscilla Rodwell, aged sixteen. Th e d ecease d li ve d w i th her aunt, Mrs. ltumsby, an d d estroyed herself by swallowing a large quantity of arsenic mi x ed with pork lard that had bee n laid in the cheese chamber for the destruction rasli action ti of r a.ts .

The the verdict to the parents of the and 2 b made ody ou his warrant for the private interment of tlt be tween the hours of nine and twelve at night, pursuant to the provisions of a recent statute.—Essex Herald. The boy Jones would not be taken on board the Diamond at Cork, for Port Philip. The master, Capt. Taylor, refused a handsome apprentice fee, which the Bow-street officer, who accompanied him here of fered. Jones is the lad who has so often intruded on Buckingham Palace.—Limerick Chronicle. GAME.—We learn by accounts from several districts, that game of all kinds is unusually plenty-. Pheasants and partridges are numerous, although Coveys of the latter are not generally very full in numb er . Hares are strong and plentiful. One of our informants counted, in one small field, a few days ago, no fewer than 47, and this too on an estate that was well shot and coursed over last season. Indeed, the depredations of puss are almost everywhere pretty evident, in the nibbled appearance of the corn fields, in the neighbourhood of preserves. The moors give promise of excellent sport. The fine weather lately has been favourable to the young grouse, which all accounts coincide in describing as remarkably strong on the wing. Few cheepers may be expected to be heard or seen this season. Sports men, generally, are anticipating that if the 12th be a fine day, they will manage to make the fellows who carry their bags groan and cry, "Hold, enough," long before sunset.—Ayr Advertiser. There is an amusing anecdote told of Captain Anstruther, when in confinement in China, which is said to have come in a private letter from himself. One day a Mandarin sent him a very savoury stew, garnished with sharks' fins and birds' nests, in compensation for a likeness which he had taken of the nodding gentleman. Captain Anstruther having tasted the delicious contents, ;ave an inquisitive look at the attendant, and pointing to the stew, said, " Quack, quack, quack?" The servant ;hook his head and replied, "Bow ? wow I wow. "—lndian Paper, TRI4_I SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1841. THE FETE OF NAPOLEON AT BOULOGNE. We present to the public this day the programme of the Fete of the 15th of Auguit. It will be seen that, so far as the procession is concerned, it will be military, in every sense of the word, and as such splendid. So far as we have heard detailed the intention of raising trophies, banners, obelisks, garlands, scucheons, and triumphal arches along the line of procession, that is, along the port, Rue de l'Ecu, Grande Rue, Porte des Dunes, Mar che au Ble, Place d'Armes, Rue de Lille, and the Calais road,—the whole of these streets will display a gallant, gay, and enlivening appearance. The Committee have embarked heartily in the cause, and are determined to make it what it ought to be, the splendid finale of the Grand Army on the heights of Boulogne. As we stated last week, the Minister of Marine has ordered five vessels of war to be present on the occasion. The programme proves the orders of Marshal Soult, who although, from his numerous occupations and the peculiar position which he occupies in the Cabinet, he cannot attend himself, still has ordered an old aide-de-camp of Napoleon, General Corbineau, to be present and preside at the ceremony. The General no sooner received this order than he placed at command of our Mayor the bands of the 14th Light Infantry and of the Ist regiment of Engineers stationed at Arras, of the 27th at Calais, and of the 40th at Dun kirk, with such detachments from each as should be deemed necessary, and also as many Cuirassiers, Hussars, and Dragoons as requisite. He has also issued orders that all the Colonels and Lieutenant-Colonels of his divi sion should be in Boulogne on the 15th, and it is believed that two batteries of the Artillery, a detachment of Ca rabineers, and the band of the 2d regiment of Lancers, the most complete in France, will be also present. To these add the Parisian Mounted National Guard, the National Guards of Dunkirk, Calais. St. Omer. Abbe ville, Arras. and Montreiul, with the National Guard of the town and the troops of the line already here, and we think sufficient is stated to give an idea of the brilliant Fete, in a military point of view, that awaits us. His Eminence the Cardinal Bishop of Arras, who officiated at the Ceremony of the Institution of the Legion of Honour, and at the laying the foundation stone of the Columti, has received the express orders of the King to be present also on this occasion, and has written to say that he shall attend with the greatest pleasure. The fete will commence on Friday, the 13th, by races, at one o'clock, that of the Hurdles for 500 fr. The Departmental prize of 500 fr., and that of the Mi nister of Commerce fnr 2,500 fr. _ _ At eight o'clock a grand concert will be given by the Philharmonic Society, at which all the celebrated singers who will then honour Boulogne with their company will attend. THURSDAY, THE 19TH. Hurrah again for the races, at one o'clock, when the Duke of Orleans' prize for 1,000 fr. ; the Ladies Cup for 1,200 ; the King's Prize for 500 ; and a Handicap for 500 will be contended for. In the evening, the Theatre, 'with extraordinary dramatic repreSentations, will' be the point of attraction to close the festival of the Fete of Napoleon. Such is the outline of what the gourmand for variety of pleasure will have laid before him during the days of August in Boulogne. Of what the dif ferent condiments will be composed, which are to give relish to the various dishes, cannot at present be made known ; but no one can doubt the savoury essence of the feast when they recollect who are the eooks ? Frenchmen are notorious for their taste ; he who saw St. Omer and its fete, the reception at Paris of Napo leon's remains, indeed any procession NI here French fancy takes the lead, must feel convinced every thing will be in a style becoming the event.—Bouk,gne Gazette. LAW INTELLIGENCE. SHERIFF'S COURT, Aug. 3. (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL ) WELLER V. MURRAY. Mr. Wakeling conducted the case for the plaintiff ; Mr. Thomas appeared for the defence. Mr. Wakeling said, this was the most extraordinary case which had come under his knowledge during a prat. tice of twenty years. The plaintiff (Mrs. Weller) was formerly the proprietor of a highly respectable coffee shop in Soho, which she had been obliged to give up, and had subsequently attended on the defendant, who was an ironmonger in Holborn—he being separated from his wife—for which sh 4 charged him at the rate of 2s. a-day. The action was brought to recover the sum of 61. 25., deducting 10s. paid, and leaving the balance 51. 12s. The case was to have been tried last Thursday, but it did not come on, and here was the .extraordinary part of it. The defendant pleaded that he was only in debted in the sum of 1/. 19s. 11d. which he paid into Court, and that he had a set offof 2s. which was not denied. How ever,since Thursday he understood a sum of 2Ll5s. had been paid to the plaintiff, and this, was followed by an appli cation to one of the Learned Judges to stay all further proceedings. That learned person, however, would not interfere, and said it was an attempt to deprive the at torney of his costs. He might here mention that the plaintiff, being unable to obtain her wages, had applied to the Magistrate at Hatton-garden, who, of course, could not interfere, and the consequence. was this suit was brought. Charlotte M'Adam said she lived in the same house with the plaintiff, and well remembered her going to the defendant's. Has seen her cooking. Mr. Wakeling—Anything else ? Witness—Mending his clothes.—(Loud laughter.) She went for about two months ; 2s. would be a fair charge a day. Mr. Thomas—Did an old gentleman, one Samuel Wel ler, live in your house ? Witness—An old gentleman of that name did. Mr. Thomas—Was his name " Sam ?"—(Roars of laughter.) Witness—l cannot say. Mr. Thomas—Did Mrs. Weller wait upon him ? Wit ness—She used to came home to " clean herself," and then she cooked his dinner. Mr: Thomas—Did she make his bed ? Witness—No, he made it himself.—(Roars of laughter.) Mr. Thomas—How do you know, that ? Witness—l have seen him do it.—(Renewed laughter.) Mr. Thomas—Was she not to " do for him ?"—(Con tinued merriment.) Witness—l don't know what you mean ; she cooked for him. The witness added, that the defendant's son drove the plaintiff, who was goinc , to Brighton, as far as the B r i c kl a y ers ' A rms an d gave her 10s. but she heard nothin g sa id a b ou t wages . Thomas Murray, the son of the defendant, said, that Mrs. Weller used to have her breakfasts and dinners with his father. Cross-examined—She went out to keep an old gentle man.—(Loud laughter.) Mr. Thomas—What do you mean ? Witness—She used to cook his dinner, and said he paid her 6s. a week. Mr. Thomas—Now, when she came from Brighton, what did she do ? Your father had then another char woman. Witness—Mrs. Weller said to her, " Why, here I am back."—(Roars of laughter.) Mr. Thomas—And turned her out ? Witness—Yes. —(Loud laughter.) Other evidence having been given, The Learned Counsel was about referring to the re•. ceipt for the 21. 155., when Mr. Wakeling objected, as it wasgiven after the action had been brought. The UNDER-SHERIFP having learned that the action was brought on the 25th of June, and the document was dated on the 27th of July, ruled that it could not be used. Mr. Thomas went on to say, that inasmuch as the de fendant had paid for her washing, she could not be con sidered as a charwoman, and after commenting at length on the evidence, John Goodland was called, and deposed that he had heard the plaintiff say. Mr. Murray was a kind friend to her, and that she had acted as a companion. He often dined with them, and said to her, " How is it that you never say, Yes, Sir,' No, Sir,' but Murray I shag get this, I shall get that?' "—(Laughter, which continued for some time.) Other evidence having been given, The UNDER 'SHERI FF , a ft er an able reply from Mr., Wakeling, summed up the - case, and The jury found for the full amount claimed, 3/. 10s. ld. Sir PETER LAURIE, who sat in the latter part of the day took occasion on some case of no public importance, to state that he felt great gratification in being able to assure the public, from the chair in which he sat, that the Penitentiary system, which had been so loudly repro bated by men of humanity, was about to be completely altered. He had heard from unquestionable authority that after the long trial which had been given to the solitary and maddenin g process in that place of punish ment, it had at length been discovered that the cruel rigours of the place were not productive of the good an .ticipated ; that the silent and solitary system, instead of causing an improvement of morals, deprived some of the wretched delinquents, sentenced to pine within its walls, of the use of their reason altogether ; and that the Go vernment was at length awakened to the necessity of prison reform, as regarded the horrible place of punish ment called the Penitentiary. Mr. HUMPHRIES, the Solicitor, stated that Sir Peter Laurie would remember having presented a petition from him to the Court of Aldermen on the subject some time ago. Whatever sentences might have been passed upon unfortunate wretches who violated the laws of the coun try, it was never intended by those who made the laws or who adjudicated that prisoners should be subjected to punishment calculated to drive them mad. He under stood that the number of Chose who lost their senses in consequence of the solitary and silent system was on the increase. Sir PETER LAURIE declared that three men and three women had completely lost their reason last year, and the same number of men and women had lost their rea son within the last six months. He had complained and felt greatly upon the subject. Upon every occasion he had sought opportunities of exposing the iniquity of the infliction, and now he must say that he had his reward in the departure from the system. Mr. Hobler, jun., who was also present when Sir Peter Laurie mentioned the fact of the intended altera tion, said he apprehended that the model prison which the Government were building would be the means of es tablishing a more rigorous series of punishments than the Penitentiary was capable of inflicting. The plan 'Ton which that place of punishment was being con structed was such as to encourage every fear that great powers would be given to those who superintended the inmates. Sir PETER LAURIE said he had no apprehension of the kind. At all events one serious evil was about to dis appear, and he really did not think it possible that it was to be substituted by anything half so bad. SATURDAY, THE 14TH. Repose till seven o'clock in the evening , when the ves sels in the harbour, and in the offing, the batteries on the coast, &c., will fire a salute of 21 guns, and the church bells will ring a merry peal to denote the eve of the Fete.

At seven in the morning salvos of artillery and ringing of bells as on the previous evening. 2.

The port on each side of the road will be occupied by the detachments of National Guards from the various towns, by those of the town, the troops of the line in Boulogne and those ordered here from the various garrison towns, the Corps of the Woods and Forests, the Marine, the Custom-house, and the Gendarmes. These will all occupy the position most suitable to their falling in with out confusion into that portion of the procession in which they are to form a part. At half-past twelve the procession will move off in the following order Gendarmes. Band of music. Cavalry. Trumpets and Standard. Cavalry. Artillery. Band of music. Engineers. Band of music.

Such is the precession that will pass through the town, along the Calais road, the fort of the Moulin-a-l'Huile, and thence to the Column. In the space surrounding the Column, within the enclosure, the whole of this procession will be marshalled, and such other persons whose influence will be sufficiently powerful to obtain tickets. The public in general will be ranged on each side of the road leading from fort Moulin a-l'Huile to the Column. While thus assembled an ode composed for the occasion, and set to music, will be sung, the troops reviewed, various military evolutions passed through, and finally the statue unveiled, The artillery on the glacis of the fort of the Moulin-a l'Huile will instantly fire a salute of 21 guns, the ships of war off the coast and in the harbour, and all the bat teries along the coast will respond in a similar salute. The procession will return in the same order, but in stead of passing through the upper town it will turn to the right down the road of the Abreuvoir, Rues Notre- Dame, Dutertre, Wissocq, Siblequin, and Neuve-Chaus- Eie, to the church of St. Nicholas where a grand Te Deum, &c., will be sung at whi c h his Eminence the Car dinal Bishop of Arras will officiate. At six o'clock, the Theatre will be opened to per formances of a mere attractive character than are gene rally represented, and in which Parisian actors will play the principal characters. Seven o'clock, thunders of artillery from the ships of war and batteries will again awaken attention, and call the crowds together for _ Fire works prepared by the celebrat e d R ugg i er i, which at nine o'clock will illuminate the harbour where they are to be displayed, and where every vessel during the day will be decorated with flags, streamers, &c. The whole town will be illuminated. Such is the outline of the intended ceremony of the 15th of August 1841, a ceremony devised to illus trate the last act of the completion of a column erected to commemorate the assembly of an army that performed deeds of valour imperishable as the History that has re corded them, and of the institution of an order of merit that prompted daring souls to achieve the immortality which has twined its laurels round the brow of the chief who knew how to make use of man and stimulate him to glory. Whether glory acquired at the cannon's mouth, by the destruction of the human species, by the ruin of thousands and the desolation of kingdoms is worthy of ambition, it would be idle to pause to discuss ; but in a country like this, inflammable as their brandy, in deed on fire at the idea of a match, it is questionble whether all this military spectacle is politic ; men's brains, however, run upon it, and the wise, at present, as in all past ages, have been and will be led away by fools and shallow minds. Still the peaceable, and all disposed for rational and innocent amusement will find wherewith to be gratified during the fetes, and particularly on the fol lowing days ; ON MONDAY, THE 16TH. The whole of the troops will receive gratuities, and at eleven o'clock the trial of skill for the mu nicipal prizes will commence in the Tintelleries between the various bands that assisted at the cere mony of the previous day. This will be a great musical treat. It is well known that the northern towns of France are very . musical , and abound with ama teurs of no cp retensions.— Lhe l'hilharrnoik Societies of Cal s, - Dunkirk, and St. Omer are cele brated for their precision, sweetness, and power ; above fifty musicians from each of those towns will be pre sent ; we hear that they have sunk all minor differences to unite in one common cause, for the honour of their respective towns, and meet constantly at rehearsals to carry home in triumph from Boulogne the first prize. This promises a banquet to the lovers of harmony on which they may regale with delight ; no dis cord can be contemplated at such a reunion. This melo dious trial of skill, it is supposed, will last upwards of four hours, and will conclude by the distribution of prizes among the most deserving. For the rest of Monday the minds of all will be left to chew quietly the cud of mediL tatien over the sweet thoughts the morning's amusement is so calculated to promote. TUESDAY, THE 17TH. has Opensysita witnessed, e a d scene ,aad i p n ro t b he abl T y in n t e ell ve es, r rie will wh a ich it again.

At night a dress ball. by invitations, at the theatre. Prom the preparations already making, we have no doubt this ball will be a great attraction. A large additional room, extending from the back of the Theatre to half- way up the Rue Monsigny, is erec tin g ; the whole of the pit will be covered over level with the stage, the whole to be devoted to dancing ; two bands will occupy the second row of side-boxes ; the taste and spirit of the manager is a sufficient guarantee that no wthoirtnghywiolfl t b h e wanting e ,E occasion to render upon WEDNESDA Y , THE Hi t c h : e ths 18TH. a bne given. amusement A o comthodation is preparing for 1,200 persons. After the exertions of last night a little repose is ne cessary to recover wasted energy and flagging spirits. All; therefore, who have shaken off lassitude and are eager for novelty may seek it in the museum or the exposition of pictures; and, if so inclined, enter their names for tickets in the lottery of pictures. Time, however, flies, and even ing has arrived bringing with it a concert and ball at the Etablissewent, GUILDHALL, The Rev. Mr. Hall, a Roman Catholic clergyman, ap plied to Mr. Alderman Kelly for his advice under the following circumsiances :—He was sent for by a Roman Catholic prisoner confined in the Giltspur-street prison to visit him, and 'he did so last week. He afterwards sent him a prayer-hook, and also some prayer-books for some other Catholics who were confined in the gaol. Upon making a subsequent visit, he foucd that none of the books had reached the prisoners, but had been inter cepted by the Rev. Mr. Boddington, the Protestant chap lain of the gaol. The same prayer-book which he was pleased to prohibit was admitted for the use of the Catholic prisoners in Newgate, with the sanc tion of the Rev. Mr. Carver, the Ordinary. Com plainant had an interview with the Rev. Mr. Boddington, and was not treated with the courtesy which one clergyman ought to show to another. The complaint he made was twofold ; that the Catholic prisoner was compelled to attend with the Protestants at the chapel, against the man's conscience ; and next that he was prevented from receiving a Roman Catholic prayer-book. The Chaplain said, with respect to the latter, that it contained matters contrary to what he taught, and he had a mind to burn the several copies complainant had sent ; and that he should persist in requiring Catholic as well as Protestant prisoners to attend divine service in his chapel. Mr. Alderman KELLY said he had no power to inter fere as a single Magistrate, but if the complainant would take the trouble to make his representation to the Com mittee of Aldermen, who met at noon on Saturdays, he was sure it would receive due consideration. Mary Ann and Sarah Davis were charged with steal ing a pair of small combs from a blind man, who usual!' stands in Farringdon-street with a little box full of suc] articles. James Tidy, of Bleeding Hart-yard, Hatton-wall, the blind man, said, that two persons, whom he knew to be females by their voices, inquired the price of a pair of side-combs. He asked 3d. for them, and they gave him a sixpence, which he changed. After they were gone he felt the number of side-combs left .in the tray, and missed a pair, which he suspected they had stolen. Im mediately afterwards a lad asked him what the two young women had purchased, and he replied one pair of combs. The lad said they had taken two pairs, went after them, and gave them into custody. Frederick Chowne, a lad, proved that they took two pairs of combs. His suspicion was excited by seeing one of them put a pair of combs at once into her hair. The prisoners said it was a mistake. They thought the blind man said the two pairs would cost 3d. The policeman said the prisoners occasionally appeared as street-walkers. Mr. Alderman KELLY thought none were so heartless as to rob a poor blind man. Being their first offence, he would punish them summarily with imprisonment and hard labour for one month. The blind man thanhed the Alderman for treating them so mercifully. BO W-STREET. Thomas Lake Wills, a clerk in the Inlad office of the General Post-office, was brought before Mr. Twyford for final examination, having been remanded, charged with stealing a letter, containing a 101. note, the pro perty of the Postmaster-General. Ir. Peacock conducted the prosecution. At the last examination, the note was traced to thQ prisoner's possession. Mr. Win. Chettle, a draper, residing at Frome in So mersetshire. stated that he sent a letter to his father on the 16th of July last, enclosing a 101. note of the Frome Bank, with half a sovereign, and 3s. in silver, and after sealing and directing it to the " Rev. John Chettle, Sheerness," he gave it to his wife to put into the Post office ; but not receiving an answer on the Wednesday following, he made inquiries and di scovere d it h a d no t come to hand. Witness identified the noto produced with his initials upon it. _ _ Mrs. Chettle, wife of the last witness, proved having put the letter into the post-office, on the day in question, and Mr. Chettle, to whom it was directed, proved that he had never received it. Mrs. Sarah Webber, at whose house, in Allen-street, Lambeth, the prisoner had lodged for the last four months, stated that on the 23d of July she saw a 101. note in his possession, which she believed was the same as that produced. Ile took it from a bookcase, saying, " Look here, how careless I am with money ; here's a 101. note I have left on the shelf." He was then look ing for a sovereign he had lost. Witness did not think any person had come to visit him during his stay at the lodgings. She went out at half-past three o'clock on the 23d of July, and the prisoner did not return home until a late hour on that night. The evidence of Mr. Blott, a clerk in the General Post-office, which had been taken on the former exami nation, was read over. It proved that filo prisoner was on duty on the day in question, and the letter must have passed through his hands. The prisoner declined making any defence, and he was fully committed for trial. He.was again charged with stealing-a letter containing a silver medal, the property of Mr. Drinkwater, a member of the Society of Odd Fellows. It appears that the prosecutor sent a letter, in which the medal was enclosed, to Mrs. Wood, a charwoman, in Buckingham Palace, and in the usual course of business it should have arrived at the General Post-office on the 16th of June from Brighton, but it never-came to hand. The prisoner had been on duty on the day in question, and on searching his lodgings the medal, which he said he had found in the Westminster-road, aye weeks back, was discovered by the officer. Mr. Blott and the officer gave the same evidence as in the last case, and the witnesses being bound over to pro secute, the prisoner was ordered to stand committed on this charge also, but to be brought up again on Satur day next.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. CHESTER AND NORTH WALES CIRCUIT. Chester, July 31. MURDER OF A GAMEREEPER.—The following case ex cited considerable interest, in consequence of its being looked on as a double murder, and the atrocious cruelty with which the crime had been perpetrated. The widow of the murdered man has, within the last few weeks, died of a broken heart, leaving seven young children totally unprovided for. The prisoner's name is Thomas Brooks, and he was in dicted for the wilful murder of Thomas Henshall, at Moxley, in this county, on the night of Sept. 10 last. The Attorney-General, Mr. Trafford, and Mr. Towns end, were Counsel for the prosecution ; and Mr. Jervis and Mr. Welsby defended the prisoner. The facts of the case were briefly these :—The de ceased, Thomas Henshall, was in the employ of Mr. Gar stang, of Chester, as watcher of game in the township of Huxley. On the 10th September, 1840, he attended that gentleman and a friend of his in Stapleford on a shooting excursion. In the evening the deceased was paid by his master 2/. Bs., at Tarvin, after which he took his de parture towards home. He was seen by a person with whom he was acquainted on the road leading towards his own residence, and within about a mile and a half from it, perfectly sober. Next morning his body was found in a field near his house, quite dead and cold, and the money taken from his pocket. He had been shot at by some one, and the charge had perforated his heart, and lodged in the pericardium. About nine o'clock the same evening the report of a gun was heard in the neigh bourhood of the place, which was supposed to be the fatal shot. The evidence affecting the prisoner was purely circumstantial. It appeared the prisoner left his home on the evening of the murder with a gun in his possession, and shortly before nine o'clock a person was seen by a female who was milking, crossing a field near the place. This person was in appearance like the prisoner, but she would not swear that it was him. The next evening prisoner was taken into custody, when he said that he had not heard of the deceased's death. It was:: proved that he had been told of Henshall being shot. In the prisoner's house two guns were found, ono of which he said belonged to a neigh bour. These guns were loaded with mixed shot of six different numbers, and the shot extracted from the body were also of the same numbers ; but in a gun said to belong to prisoner's neighbour, the quantities more nearly corresponded. It was also proved that the prisoner had said, previous to the murder, that Henshall was a spite ful man ; he should not be surprised if he was shot. There were a variety of other circumstances, but they did not bear directly against the prisoner. Mr. JERVIS delivered a most able address to ,the Jury in his behalf, which occupied about two hours in the de- I livery. Tile Learned JUDGE summed up, and the Jury, after retiring for a quarter of an hour, found a verdict of not guilty. The trial lasted eleven hours. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A young man, named WilliaNAike 2 ;tkedies Tom Piiest, - was - hf Ought up, ehauffed.with 'll - e.ZA broken into, and robbed, the auction-r o o m s of Mr. .Julinson, who is exten sively engaged in the disposal of unredeemed articles, in Gracechurch-street, of an immense quantity of plate, watches, diamond rings, &c. One of the City police, in goinfi his rounds in Grace church-street, observed something r up a court in that vi cinity which exc i te d hi s susp i c i on he went to the spot, when, upon looking about, he saw .o bags near a truck, which stood against the wall, and- the prisoner curled up in a corner, evidently for the purpose of concealing himself. Witness asked him whether he knew any thing of the bags ? to which he replied in the negative ; and witness then proceeded to search him, and was surprised at finding that his pockets were stuffed with silver spoons, watches, and other valuable property. Upon being con veyed to the station-house, the prisoner stated that this property belonged to the sale-rooms. Cope, porter to. Mr. Johnson, the proprietor of the auction-rooms, stated that he resided on the premises, and that, upon going to bed, he left all right in the house. At a quarter to four o'clock he wvs rung up by the policeman, and informed that the premises had been robbed. Upon looking at the property found upon the prisoner, and in the two bags, he perceived the tickets to each lot to be those which he had himself written and attached. They were pawnbrokers' pledges which were advertised to be sold that day. He supposed the goods taken might be worth 7001. The LORD MAYOR asked how the thief, or thieves, could have got into the premises ? The witness said that the thieves, for he believed there were more than one, must have got up Barnes's-court, and got over a wall by means of the truck which stood against it, and then walked upon a ledge, and entered by the skylight, which the inmates did not think of fastening, as its heighta3emed to give it such security. In the wareroom from which the property was taken, were found a dark lantern, two small crowbars, and a rope. Mr. Johnson stated that the property now missing was unimportant. The LORD MAYOR---Doe 3 the prisoner wish to say any thing ? Prisoner--Why, no, my Lord, I've nothing to say. The LORD MAYOR —Your name in my list is William Smith. I suppose that is not your own name ? Pri soner—No, my Lord, it would only be deceiving you to say it was. My name is Thomas Priest. The turnkey of the Compter said that the prisoner was well known as a thief, and had been but a short time ago tried at the Old Bailey. The prisoner was committed for trial FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

Immediately after the arrival of the 72d High landers at Windsor, her Majesty commanded the attend ance at the Castle of the performers on the bagpipes at tached to the regiment. At first the instruments were played on the New Terrace and in the Quadrangle, but were afterwards brought into the interior of the Castle by the desire of Prince Albert, who was but little fami liar with such music. The performers, however,' ac quitted themselve's to the entire satisfaction of his Royal Highness, and the result has been that he has p resented a very hand some su it of new ununiformto the b agp i pe major, in testi mon y of the superiority of that person's performance. There are six performers attach e d to the regiment, w h o on ordinary occasions act for the ell tire band. The passage from America to this city was never, we believe, performed in so short a tim e as by Dr. M'Tear, surgeon on board the Britannia, which ar rived at Liverpool on Thursday evening. The Britannia performed the passage from Boston to Liverpool in nine days and nineteen hours. Just as she was entering the harbour, the Achilles was leaving for Glasgow, when Dr. M'Tear sprung from the paddle-box of the one steamer to the paddle-box of the other, and was brought to Glasgow, where he arrived on Friday night, —thus making the entire voyage in 10 days and 16 hours,-- Glasgow Argus, EVENI NG- SUN.
