,~.~:- MORNING EDITION CANADA• COPY OF A DESPATCH FROM THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF BRITISH NORTH AMERICA TO LORD JOHN RUSSELL. Government House, Montreal, June 28, 1840. My Lord,—ln my despatch of the 13th March last, No. 68, I informed your Lordship that it was rey in tention to re-introduce into the Special Council, at its meeting, with such modifications as I deemed necessary, the ordinance for incorporating the ecclesiastics of St. Sulpice, and providing for the gradual extinction of seignorial rights within their possessions, which was last year passed by Sir John Colborne and the Council ; but which could not be rendered effective under the powers of the Council as then constituted. I accord ingly sent down to them on the 30th ult. the draft of an ordinance for that purpose, which, after the fullest discussion, was passed, and having received my assent, is included among the ordinances which accompany my despatch of the 27th instant. I have already stated to your Lordship, in my des patch, No. 68, my views as to the general policy of this measure and my concurrence in the opinion of the Commissioners of Inquiry, that after so long an ac quiescence by the Government in the claims of the seminary, it would be impossible with justice now to take advantage of any defect in their legal title to in terfere with their property, or to impose on them terms of a rigorous nature. It is only necessary, therefore, that I should direct your attention to the alterations in the present ordinance, introduced with a view to bring it more into conformity with the heads of the ordinance proposed in Mr. C. Buller's Report to the Earl of Durham, all which alterations, I may remark, are restrictions upon the seminary, and in favour of the public or the censitaires. In the first clause of the ordinance passed by Sir John Colborne and the Special Council, it was provided that all rules, &c. for the temporary government of the corporation," save only those which are now followed and in force," should, before coming into operation, be approved by the Executive Government. The present ordinance requires that not the future rules only, but those also which already exist, should be submitted for the approval of the Government. The second clause of the present ordinance defines the purposes and objects to which the property of the seminary may be applied, which was omitted in the forme-. In the fifth clause, a slight alteration is introduced in the terms of eommut ition, by which an advantage is confared on the censitaires. By the Bth clause the priority of the hypothcc of the seminary for the commutation-money, as for the rights it represents, is expressly secured, and the droit de ba naliie is nbotslied with regard tl each lot of which the tenure is commuted. The object of the agreement being to put an end to all seignorial rights at the option of each individual censitaire, I considered even the par tial reservation of any one of these rights by the semi nary as improper. By the I It 6 clause the maximum of arrears which may be received by the semirary for the fief and seignory of Montreal is hmited to 44,0001. currency, and for the eignories of the Lake of Two Mountains and St. Sulpice to 12,700/. currency, any surplus to be paid over to the provincial treasury. The 12th clause provides that the farm of St. Gabriel shall be sold by puble sale, after notice in the news papers for one month. In the 13th clause, respecting the investment of the disposable moneys of the corporation, the authority to invest them in cia-tered and incorporated bodies in the colonies i 3 omitted. 13; the 14th clause, tho seminary is required to fur ni:sh " a full, clear and detailed st itement" of their re venue and expenditure, in such manner and form, and with such aties!.ation of ‘• correctness, as the Governor Abell prescribe, instead of the summary st,,tement re quired under the former ordinance ; and finally, under the exttnduti powers of the Governor and Special Council, the o:dinance is made permanent. _ Your Lordship will perceive that none of these alterations i..ff,!et the principle of the ordinance, and that the:r object and tendency is to bring it as much as possible into accordance with the agree ment made under Mr. Charles Buller's media tion. The ordinance pa,sed last year undoubtedly failed to carry it to etre..:t some of the provisions of that agreement, and the conditions imposed on the seminary werel- as stringent than they should have been to be in accord:ln, e w.th his Report. This ob;ection has 1101 V bet n completely renwved by the changes introduced by the speeiial coursed. I have every reason to believe that, notwithstanding the clamour raised by a few individuals in this city, and the violence of the press, the measure is approved by the moderate men of all parties. In the special council there were but two members who voted against it, and although ti.c persons who signed the address to the Throne transmitted in my despatch, No. 68, have since sent an aqent to liegl Ind, they declined, in answer to en unofficial communication which I made to them, to suggest any alterations or modifications of the ordinance. _ _ In fact, it is not possible to deny that the terms of .agreemcot with the seminary are most advantageous to the censitaires, and such as no other seigneur within the province, whether the Crown, or an individual, would consent to accept, and this accordingly is not denied by the parties. For years past the loudest complaints have been made by the inhabitants of Montreal. and more especially by the British community, of the injury which they suffered born the seignorial tenure possessed by the seminary. The strongest representations were repeatedly made to induce the Legislature or the Government to favour, if not to compel, a settlement of the matter ; and this settlement is now effected, upon terms far more favour able, in a pecuniary sense, to the censitaires and the possessors of property under the seminary, than could have been anticipated, and to which, last year, accord ing to Mr. I3uller's Report, they assented. The only ground, therefore, on which, as I under stand it, the parties who have signed the petition to the Queen, oppose this settlement now, is that they set up an objection to any settlement at all with the seminary, al:eging that that body has no legal right to the property, and that the matter must be considered as entirely new, and, therefore, not authorising the establishment of a corporation for such purposes, or with such an amount of property at its disposal. Upon this, I have only to remark, that if the legal title of the seminary be a bad one, the property be longs to the Crown, and the faith of the Crown being pledged to the seminary, by repeated Acts for the last sixty or seventy years, as is sufficiently shown in the Report of the Commissioners, it would not be possible for the Ministers of the Crown to resume the property, or assent to any Act which should deprive the seminary of it, without a fair and equitable compensation. Less than what is now given to them would not pro bably be considered sufficient for this purpose, and thus the only effect of now refusing to ratify their con tract would be (so far as mere pecuniary considerations are involved), not to reduce the advantages to the se minary, but to place the Crown in the position of Seigneur, compensating, as it is in honour bound to do, the latter, but offering very different and less advan. tageous terms to the censitaires, for the right of com mutation. But in a political point of view, the disallowance of this ordinance would be most disastrous. After years of contention, the matter was at last finally adjusted between the contendin g parties, through the mediation of Mr. Buller ; the bargain thus made was ratified by the Legislature here ; it was approved by her Majesty's Government and by both Houses of Parliament, and a special clause introducedinto the Canada Government Bill by the Duke of Wellington, I believe, enabling that settle ment to receive legal force. After a ll thi s , upon the re p r esentation of some few individ ua l s , now to break up all that has thus . passed, and to leave . the question open to fresh discussion and being excitement, without the possibility of the Crown agabletoeo t n o sen s t to the measure which the peti tioners affect eck, namely, the ab andonment . of the seminary, wou ld en tail the most disa . strous . consequences upon the colony. Upon these consideratlons,ladhere to the opinions of my predecessors, Lord Dur ham and Lord o S f ea t t h on e ,and earnestly recommended the conf i rma tion ordi nance by her Majesty. Undoubtedly, if I considered the . Crown to be free from any obligation, and that ( suppos i ng the strict legal right to be with it and not with t he seminary), I was at liberty to recommend the appropriation that I thought best, I should not make t h e P rc- sent one. Although the seminary is a most useful b o dy, an d manages i ts affairs greatly to the ad van t age o f t h e prov i nce, I wou ld willingly, under such.circumstances, adopt a less exclusive dis tribution of such large Crown funds ; and, above all, I would increase them greatly by making those who would then be the censitaires of the Crown purchase their freedom a t a much higher rate. But lam not in a situation, hampered as the Crown is by its previous engagements, to take such a course, and therefore, for the same reasons, I come to the same conclusion as those to whom I have above referred have done. I have, &c., (Signed) C. POULETT THOMPSON. On Wednesday of last Wea—tr---ie oath 'of office was taken by Lord S)denham, at Mon trea l, on assuming the government of Canada, in the presence of the Special Council, the Judges, the Clergy, and the Heads of De partments. Salutes were fired, a numerously attended levee was held, and in the evening a grand ball was given by his Lordship. After thelaking, of the oath the following proclama tion was issued ; " A PROCLAMATION. " In obedience iotliecommands of the Queen I have this day assumed the government of the province of Ca nada. Upper and Lower Canada, separated for fifty years, are once more re - un i te d, an d henceforward will form but one province, under one administration. one of On m y arrival in Lower Canada I declared that of the mai n o b jects of my rni.ion was to put an end to th o suspension of the constitution in that province, and to to its inh a bi tants the full benefits of British institu ti,ns. That object is accomplished. By the Impetial Act which fixes the union, represeracive g S Ug"in established, an d t h at control by the pe overnment op i le over their OWR %! ' ' affairs which is deemed the highest privilege of Britons is ► once more restored to them. The Act which provides for this affixes certain conditions to the grant over which the Provincial Legislature can exercise no authority; while it leaves to the final arbitration of that Legislature all ques tions but those which the Imperial Parliament in its wis dom has deemed essential itself to determine—the legisla tive reunion—the establishment of a secure and firm admi nistration of government—and the maintenance of the due relations of colony and parent state. Efforts have been sedulously made to deceive the unwary, and especially some of our fellow-subjects of French origin, upon this point, to represent these provisions as injurious—to treat them as susceptible of change here—and to excite opposition which can only prove as mischievous as it must be useless. " I rely, however, on these efforts proving unavailing ; and appeal with confidence to the loyalty and good sense of the inhabitants of Lower Canada, of whatever origin, so to use the power which is now again committed to their hands as to justify the trust which our Sovereign and the Imperial Parliament have reposed in them, and cor dially to join in an endeavour to promote the common in terest of the united province. " In Upper Canada the sense of the people was declared fully and freely, through their constitutional organs, upon the great question of the union itself and on the principles on which it should be based. Those principles have been adopted by the Imperial Parliament. and it will ever be matter of the utmost gratification to me, that my humble efforts have aided in perfecting a measure, securing, as firmly believe, to that province, which I regard with feel— ings of affection, as well as interest, advantages which it could attain by no other means. Inhabitants of the province of Canada ! Hencefor ward may you be united in sentiment as you are from this day in name I Who can visit, as it has been my good for tune to do, the extensive regions which are now united in one common denomination, and fail to acknowledge the ♦ast resources they present for all that can conduce to the comforts and happiness of man ? A part of the mighty empire of England—protected by her arms— assisted by her treasury—admitted to all the benefits of trade as her citizens—your freedom guaranteed by her laws, and your rights supported by the sympathy of your fellow-subjects there—Canada enjoys a position unsur passed by any country in the world. " It is for you, its inhabitants, to cultivate these advan tages—to avail yourselves of the new era which now opens upon you. Our gracious Sovereign and the people of England watch with anxiety the result of the great change which has to-day received its completion. It is the first wish of the Queen to rule in the hearts cf her subjects, and to feel that they are contented and prosperous under her mild and just sway; her Parliament and Govern ment, in conferring on you new institations, have sought only your happiness and advantage. In your bends rests now your own fate, and by the use which you will make of the opportunity must it be decided. May the al'. wise Disposer of events so order your acts that they may tend to the promotion of peace and happiness among you, and may He pour His blessing upon Oa union of which it is my pleasing duty this day to announce to you tie com pletion. Given under my hand and seal at arms, a. the Go vernment House in the city of 'Montreal, in the said province of Canada, the 10th day of February, in the year of our Lord Peel, and in the fourth year of her Majesty's reign. " By command, " D. DALY, Secretary of the Province." RUSSIA. RUSSIAN FRONTIER, FEB.72s.—Accounts from St. Pe tersburgh give reason to fear that the Russian Government will be obliged to contract a new loan. As the natural causes of this necessity, are assigned the expeditisns against Khiva and Circassia, the equipment of the fleet both in the Euxine and the Baltic, the erection of many new buildings at the ex pense of the Treasury; such as the palace in St. Peters burgh and Moscow ; the marriage of the Grand Duchess Maria; the journeys of the Imperial Family ; the stagnation of trade, particularly in Moscow, where there have been in a short time above two hundred bankruptcies ; the bad harvest in the last two years ; the great and expensive assemblages of troops, and lastly, the large levies of recruits, by which numerous hands have been withdrawn from agriculture. Con sidering, however, the immense resources of the empire, there is no doubt that the finances will soon be in a better state ; if only peace i; preserved, of which there is every day more pro bability. The Emperor is very active, and does his utmost to remedy the general distress. Tue plague has appeared in a Circassian village, half a liy's journey from the Jerck, which may perhaps occasion a suspen sion of the Russian operations in that quarter. It is said that the Emperor has expressed a wish that instead bf. Count Figuel moot, who has been recalled, a military character may be sent as Austrian Ambassador; it is added that Major-General Count L'Urbria is expected at Petersburgh, which makes it believed that he is intended to represent Austria at the Russian Court. The differences with France arising out of the Egyptian question having caused fears of an interruption of peace, the Russian Cabinet applied to the Swedish Government to ask what it wcadd do in case of war. It answered that the situation of the country, the interests of a:l its subjects; and the progress of prosperity prescribed strict neutrality ; but that it unlawful means were adopted—for instance, if the tranquillity of Sweden were menaced by a war of propagandism—it would not neglect to take measures for a vigorous defence.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 1841 POLITICAL SUMMARY OF THE MORNING JOURNALS. The Morning - .Chronicis of yesterday contains a leading arti cle on the subject of peace or war with America, the object of which is to prove that , as yet, there is nothing to justify the apprehensions which . have been expressed, of hostilities be tween the two countries.—The Morning Post, in an article on home and foreign trade, expresses an earnest desire that the agriculture and home trade of Old England should be protected from injurious foreign competition, adding, however, that some competition, or the continually-existing possibility of compe tition, is good as a spur to activity, and a shield against extor tion.—The Morning Advertiser ,observes, with reference to the Chinese affair, that much time has been wasted in pre liminaries, and that the " course of action is so manifest, that delay only argues incompetency or imbecility."—The Morn ing Herald endeavours to show that there is still a chance left of our maintaining peace with the United States, notwithstand ing the bluster and menace of the Van Buren faction.—The following is from the Times :—" The Hatti Scheriff, which professes to confer upon Mehemet Ali the hereditary Go vernment of Egypt, is a new and threatening element in what is called the settlement of the Eastern question. Byimposing a variety of conditions, not anticipated in the recent conferences of London, it has undone the work of the last few days, which already promised to place upon a stable basis, and under the recognition of all the Powers, the great general interests of the Ottoman Empire. The conditions im posed upon the Pacha are in themselves calculated to keep alive constant jealousy and civil war. The selection of an heir from the various branches of an Oriental family would be the infal lible prelude to those horrid scenes of fratricide and butchery which have been but too frequent in Oriental history. The total subjection of the Paella's naval, military, and financial resources to the Commissioners of the Porte is totally unprecedented in the Ottoman Empire ; where, subject to the penalty of his life, amid the payment of tribute, a Pacha has always been the full and sole representative of the supreme power within the limits of his province. But the question is not whether these measures are intrinsically good or bad for the Turkish empire or for Egypt. A larger interest is at stake—that of Europe itself. How are these conditions to be reconciled to the lan guage of our Government here and abroad? to the tenour of Admiral Stopford's convention ?—to our subsequent com munications with the Pacha himself? They are calculated to disappoint the hopes of every lover of peace and fair ness in Europe ; they are no less calculated to expose the advisers of the Sultan to the reproach of underhand deal ing and diskonest machinations, which has hitherto been thrown upon his antagonists. In the face of Europe it has been proclaimed that the fleet was to be surrendered to its rightful master, Syria evacuated, and peace consolidated, upon the restoration of Mehemet Ali and his race to the Pachalic of Egypt. In the face of Europe the Sultan and his allies evade their part of these stipulations, which were trusted in by Mehemet Ali because they were made in the name of Eng land. There is but one man, we verily believe, in the public service of an European Power capable of urging on a weak and unwise Government like the Porte to measures so shamefully devoid of justice, prudence, and honour. If Lord Ponsonby was retained at Constantinople to foster the dark intrigues of the Seraglio, or to take a part in the base vengeances of Asiatic courtiers, the country might understand his conduct. But he has failed—and insolently gloried in his failure—in the great object of restoring the relations of the Sultan and the Pacha to a firm and fair state of peace. He has exposed the Government and the country which he represents to the im putation of extreme bad faith. He has done all that in him lay to defeat the efforts of the best and wisest statesmen in Eu rope for the maintenance of peace, by stimulating the brutal passions of the semi-barbarous Divan, and by pledging the policy of England to a course of action which had no source but in his own wilfulness, rancour, and audacity. Until Lord Ponsonby be recalled, it is impossible that the Cabinet Council of the Queen of England can have their own instructions carried into execution ; it is hopeless to anticipate an adjustment so promptly or equitably framed that this Alarplet will not upset it by some fresh extravagance. No ambassador, we repeat, ever before presumed to disobey the orders alleged to have been given him by his Sovereign, and avowed by the Ministers of the Crown in Parliament, with no better justification than his own caprice or intem perance. Certainly no ambassador having committed such desperate and dangerous violations of his duty to the Queen, to the country, and to the common interests of Europe, was ever before allowed to retain a post which he has so frequently and enormously abused. If the Government of this country were in the hands of men who respect their own promises or the credit of the nation, Lord Ponsonby's successor would by this time be on his way to Constantinople. FROM THE EVENING PAYERS OF YESTERDAY. (From the Globe.) The debates and resolutions of Congress and the Maine representatives, brought by the Englaarl, have nothing so surprising in them as the Report of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and afford no additional reasons for apprehending a rupture, as they me.-ely pro ceed from the twofold sources of discord which sae were already acquainted with—the local spirit of some of the American people, and the party spirit of others. The adherents of the party who have been lately de prived of power are making use of the popular suscep tibilities to embarrass their successors. It may reason ably be hoped that the same reaction against their prin ciples, which had strength to expel them from power, will lime strength to frustrate their attempts out of power. The difficulty of dealing with our independent American kinsfolk is the same which sometimes occurs in legal transactions with lesser associations—the difficulty of knowing by what name, or agent, they will 'sue and be sued—what responsibility they will admit or will abide by collectia ety. If the federal authorities had in any way sanctioned what they did not prevent (and what we can lardly blame them for not preventing, in the present state of their power)- r the Lawless acts, namely, of the "extraordinary and adve turous characters" on the fron tiers—then Great Britain must base already gone to war with the United States. Again, if the federal au thor:ties had seen proper to resent the treatment which we gave to their " extraordinary and adventurous characters," then the United States must have already gone to war with Great Britain, for most assuredly we could have given them Lo satisfaction for that merited treatment. But what a singular and anomalous position it is, for the federal Government, which represents the people of the United States in their foreign rela tions—what an extraordinary position it is, for this Go vernment, which we must resort to, when aggrieved by the proceedings of the State authorities—that it gives no sign of feeling itself the responsible party towards foreign nations—the power which has to pronounce whether the local authorities, against whom the British Government appeals to it in the case of a British subject, are, or arc not, to be supported, in detaining that subject, by the will and force of the whole Union! That is the plain question for the federal authorities to decide. It can only be darkened by such rambling and ridiculous diatribes as that of the Committee on Foreign Affairs (or rather, Mr. Pickens of South Carolina.) (From the Standard.) The speech of Sir Robert Inglis last night upon the the new Jew bill may be fairly taken as the protest of the religious portion of the British people, whom the Honourable Member for Oxford so faithfully re presents, against the de-Christianising of this nation. The law of England, from the earliest times, has assumed that the people of England are a Christian people ; and for nearly 300 years had assumed that they are a Protestant people. The assumption was practically easy and obvious while the religion of the State was guarded by penalties. Penalties, however, as they are the instruments of intolerance, have been justly and wisely laid aside, and the especially Protestant character of our State has been with less justice and wisdom abandoned ; but still, according to law, we are a Christian people. " The faith of a Christian" is still held to be an essential requisite of British citizenship. Is this intolerant? Then Chris tianity itself must be intolerance ; for there can be no question of the right of any society, whether national or otherwise formed, to declare its profession and to act upon the declaration. As is said by Coke (17 Co. 18. v.) —it is not " cceluni nec solum" which constitutes a nation, but a compact of allegiance and law. The British nation, then, constituting a Christian society by compact, there can be no theoretical intolerance in its strictly maintaining that character, unless Chris tianity itself constitute a form of intolerance. But is there any practical intolerance ? Questionless there is not. The Dissenters from Christianity who seek our shores, or who, being born here, continue to live among us, attest by their conduct that the government of a Christian society is that which they prefer. They practically acknowledge that they have all the benefits which the bulk of man kind can ever hope to derive from good go vernment protection of lifo, property, and ho nour, an open field for the exercise of industry and adventure, with the most complete indulgence in the enjoyment of their particular opinions ; in short, a perfect equality in all the um-onditioned rights of citizenship. More, however, is now c laimed for them ; they are made to demand, in addition to the full enjoyment of the effect of good government, the right of themselves constituting a part of those by whom the Government shall be administered. This is more than any one has the right to demand absolutely. AU men are entitled to be well governed—that is a univer sal right—but from it results this qualification, that no man has a right to share in the G overn ment, except upon conditions insuring its general goodness. (From the Courier.) We see by the Paris papers of - Tuesday, that the Chamber of Peers has convicted M. Delaroche, the Editor of the National, of the offence laid to his charge ; the head and front of which was an insinuation that the Peers were old and antiquated, and were, therefore, ra ther fitted for the grave than for the exercise of legis latorial duties. This offence seems so heinous in the eyes of the Members of the Upper House, that they have condemned M. Delaroche to a fine of 10,000 francs, about 4001. It would appear from this, that the Peers of Prance are somewhat more tenacious of their dignity than those of other nations, more particularly anxious not to be held up to the world as being too old. The senators of Venice did not seem to take any offence when Othello addressed them as " reverend seigniors," and as the counsel for M. Delaroche observed, our House of Lords were not dismayed when Edmund Burke called them a " House of Incurables." To come to the pre sent day : the Radicals are exceedingly fond of attack ing th e Upper House. O'Connell has declared it a nuisance, and in spite of the wh o l esome con trol it has exercised over the destructive mea sures of the Whigs, all sorts of insinuations arid accusations have been made against it.

CHRONICLE.—The news brought by the overland express from India of the state of negotiations with the Chinese authorities had scarcely any perceptible effect upon the funds. The feeling, however, was rather heavy in consequence of the uncertain position in which matters stood at the most recent date, and had it not been that prices had been considerably depressed so soon before by the intelligence from the United States, it is the general opinion that the market would have given way. Business, however, was extremely limited. There was, in fact, nothing doing, the jobbers being kept in a state of suspense by an announcement of the arrival of the packet ship England from the United States, three days later than the last advlces, and that her despatches might be hourly expected. POST.—The accounts from China produced no change worth noticing in the value of the funds. Consols ranged dur ing the morning between 881 1 and 88, 1 for money, but files of American papers having reached the North and South Ameri can Coffee-house in the course o f: t h e afternoon, with intelli gence of three day,f later date frdin New York, renewed ope rations were elite. into. Thews from this quarter is con sidered by our commercial men y no means l ess p ac ifi c th an that obtained by the West Chest . The internal exchanges il b had improved considerably, while the resignation by Mr. Web ster of his seat in the Senate of the Supreme Legislature, preparatory to the assumption by him of the office of Mi nister for Foreign Affairs under the new Administration, could not but be regarded as an auspicious circumstance. These matters being, however, but imperfectly understood at the Stock Exchange, some transactions hastily concluded in the after part of the day presented a r e t rogra d at i on i n t h e money value of stock of ito A per cent. On a more di s p ass i ona t e pe rusal being given to the advices brought by th is opportunity (the England arrived at Liverpool), which come down to the 20th ult., a re-action may be confid en tl y l oo k e d f or . Great Western Railway Shares were 23 to 4 prem. ; Birm ingham, 76 to 7 prem. ; Brighton, 7i to 7. dis. ; and Black. wall, 5i to 5 clis. per share. An address to the Shareholders of the British Iron Company, on the critical position of that unfortunate concern, has been printed. It is rather an angry production, but at the same time free from coarseness, and, as the hints thrown out by the writer for the guidance of his co-proprietors and fellow sufferers touch their interests very closely, it is, never theless, entitled to an attentive perusal. If we un derstand its contents correctly, the Directors of the company are making calls on the Shareholders with the view of paying Mr. Attwood the large sum awarded him under the late appeal (Small v. Attwood) to the House of Lotds. The Shareholders are urged to resist these calls, on the ground that after the fullest, the most unqualified, assurances have been given them by the Counsel employed that " there is no liability" to Mr. Attwood for the payment of the money—as surances which have been repeated and persevered in for years past—the point contended for is now all at once to be aban doned. It seems still to be admitted that the Shareholders have yet to obtain justice, but any further law is deprecated on account of the ruinous expense of it, and hence the determina tion of the Directors to comply with the decision of the Lords, by paying over to Mr. Attw,od 350,0001. as the value of an estate " acknowledged to be worth only between 90,000/. and 100,0001. TlMES.—During the greater part of the afternoon much uneasiness might be observed in the city. A vague report had reached the coffee-houses and other places of City resort that the news arrived at Liverpool was of an unfavourable descrip tion, although there seemed to be no notion what the intelli gence actually was. The arrival of eur express was looked forward to with anxiety, and when the papers were published, they were sought for with avidity. Mr. Fil!emore's resolu tion on arming the country was not regarded generally in a very serious light, as the modifications which that reso:ution underwent were considered to weaker. its effect. Some looked with greater apprehension to the threatened ex ecution of Mr. Al'Leod, as an - inevitable cause of war, if such an act were to take place, though per haps what was considered the most alarming of all was the re solution referred to the Boundary Committee for removing the British troops from the disputed territory. The intelligence altogether has, doubtless, had its effect in strengthening an im pression that the disposition of the Americans is not so far from hostile as has sometimes been supposed in the City, and that the bad feeling of the people of the United States does not merely belong to a small party, while anything like very serious alarm is greatly checked by the belief that the Americans would find it almost impossible to sustain a war. In the Consol Market the fall was near a per cent. immediately on the receipt of the news, but this is attributed to the operations of a few speculators for the full, who have taken advantage of the late arrivals to depress the market, and the want of some leading capitalist who might sustain prices. DESTRUCTION OF THE FALLS OF NIAGARA. The following account is contained in an " extra from Buff , lo," received at New Ynrk " Office of the Advertiser, Buffalo, Feb. 14, 4.o'clock We hastan t., announce t) our readers and to the world an event in its nature at once the most stu pendous and sublime that has ever been recorded in the ann ils of the wonderful. The Falls of Niagara—the unmatched phenomenon of nature—the centra'ization of power, grandeur, and beauty—L.oe theme of poesy and the material of the travel:cr—the resort of the ennuie, and the delight of the sus( eptibl)—is no more. " On Saturday morning, about nine o'clock, were manifested the first symptoms of the great catastrophe that slim tly ensued. Mr. Arnold, a citizen of the vil lege, whild waiting at the foot of the spiral staircase for the return of the boat, in order to execute an errand on the opposite side, perceived thejutting rocks which formed on the Canada side the famous sub-marine cavern, to break away and fall into the cauldron underneath. The inci dent itself, and its effect on the aspect of the Fall, were so remarkable, e.at he returned to the village and com municated the facts to several citizens ; and very soon a large group had collected to watch for further deve lopments. "In the course of' an hour considerable masses were dislocated and thrown down. The sheet of water that before fell abruptly, almost perpendicularly, with an unbroken breast over the protruding cave, of course now shot down an obtuse angle, losing its graceful and majestic curve, but gaining in tumult and effervescence. By three o'clock p.m., the number of spectators was augmented by many from Buffalo, ourselves among them. Nothing farther transpired that night. Early next morning parties were anxiously gazing towel ds the Falls, despite the severity of the weather, expecting to see the work of disorganization proceed. " At half-past seven o'clock, a wide space of the frontal bastion, near to Goat Island, within the horse shoe, fell down ; and then followed effects with greatly accelerated rapidity. What was actually taking place could only be surmised, as the great confluence of water hid the immediate stage of operations from sight. But it was plain to all that the suppOrting fabric of the cata ract was fast wearing away Wore the tremendous en ginery. Its immemorial durability might have been owing to the strongly-intrenched and ada mantine rampart that had always presented its shoulder to the assailing flood ; or the whole, equally compact and secure, might have been preparing for this demolition, through ages of sarping, solving percolation. The angle of descent every minute diminished. At half-past eight the Biddle Tower and all the adjoining groundwork had disappeared. The tower sunk into the gulf like a subsiding wave. Shortly after, the water having made a subterranean passage, burst through the wall of Goat Island, cumbered with masses of rock and rolled with earth, and as instantly the crust above collapsed and mixed in the wild chaos below. In rapid succes sion, on the Canada side of the island, mass followed mass, and the island, throughout its entire length, was chafed and narrowed down to a lean stripe, which re sisted further encroachments as if of more substantial constituents. On the British border, the wall of loose, fri able rock was gored and ploughed away, until the Table Rock, so much resorted to by visitors, fell down in fragments, the spiral staircase toppled, and for awhile it was expected that the hotel would follow. It still stands, though in a perilous posture, all the furniture being removed. Oa the American side the great shelf is unmolested ; but the water falling over Is greatly diminished, it being diverted to the largely increased channel on the British side. Here the waters have a prolonged fall of nearly a mile, the plane of course very gentle, commencing above Goat Island, and ending below the old fording place, the intermediate space being filed up and graduated by deposits from above. " The appearance of the Fall in its new shape time will not permit us to sketa. " P.S. The hotel is gone, we learn. It is believed no lives have been lost." CRIMINAL RETURNS. The Commissioners of Ye have published their annual return of the number , of persons taken into cus tody, and the results for the year 1840, with compara tive statements for the last ten years. The total number taken into custody in 1840 was 70,717, nearly 5,000 m ore than the previous year, arising from the extension .2 of the police district in January , 1840, including an in crease of J 35 parishes, hamlets, arid liberties, with a po pulation of 67,266. Of these, ;no r° than one half; 37,559, were discharged by the M a g istrates ; 29,076 summarily convicted or held to bail ; 4,082 committed for trial ; 3,081 convicted ; (3 60 acq uitted ; and 300 against whom bills were not found. No twithstanding the increase of the district the number of p ersons taken into custody was considerably less than i n 1831 and 1832, when the numbers were respeotivOY 72,824 and 77,543. The smallest number taken into c ustady in any one of the ten years was in 1-836, amountin t g only ,to 63, busto 3B4, More than one-third of the persons aken into dy in 1840, 23,938, could neither read nor write,-37,4.1 could read only, and read and write very imperfectly, —8,121 could read and write well, and 1,107, of whom only 62 were females, had received superior instruction. —.....--1-2., THE LATE LATE FATAL COLLfSiQN.—Captain Andrews, late Commander of the ill-fated emigrant ship Governor Fenner, sailed from Live r p ool for New York in the Amer;can packet ship Stephen Whitney , on Monday afternoon, and will be the first to convey the melancholy int. lligence to the owners and underwriters in America. Captain Andrews, with a commendable desire to have the whole affair fully and fairly discussed, and to accelerate by every means in his power the progress of inquiry, applied to the M;iyor of Liverpool to institute an investigation, but his application proved fruitless, Mr. Bolton represent ing that he bad "no more power to institute an inquiry than the Mayor of London," Had the bodies found in the rigging of the Governor Fenner been brou g ht to Liverpool by Captain Church, of the Birming ham steamer, an inves tigation would hove taken place, and facts m i g ht have been eleited ; but, ac it ii, there is n o ot h e r tribunal to take cognizan ce o f it b u t a Court of Law , and it must rest with the owners of the vessels to ettionit or not to investigation by such process. LAW INTELLIGENCE ROUSE OF LORDS, MARCH 11. The Lord Chancellor sat in the House of Lords to-day for the first time since his recent indisposition. His Lordship looked rather thinner and paler than usual, but far better than could have been expected, considering the severe illness under which he has been labouring for some weeks past. The other Peers present were the Duke of Argyll and the Earl of Selkirk. CAIRNS V. ANSTRUTIXER. The arguments in this part-heard Scotch appeal were re sumed to-day. The case came before their Lordships upon ap peal from eertain interlocutors of the Court of Session, by which that Court found the appellant liable in costs to the re spondent, he having been mandatory at one time for a person of the name of Rogers, deceased, in an action brought by him to recover from the respondent the sum of 5001., he having put his name to a bill for that amount, which bill eventually turned out to have been fraudulently concocted by a person named Gordon, for the purpose of enabling him to extort mo ney from those who had signed it. The action abated in con sequence of the death of Rogers, and upon that abatement the Court of Session pronounced the interlocutors complained of. On the part of the appellant it was contended that the action having abated by the death of Rogers, and his repre sentative not having been made a party, there was no existing process on which the interlocutors could be pronounced. The LORD ADVOCATE (with whom was Mr. Anderson) ad dressed their Lordships on behalf of the respondent, contending that the appeal was incompetent. Mr. ANDERSON followed on the same side. The LORD CHANCELLOR postponed giving judgment. ALLAN V. BLANDEN. Mr. ANDERSON opened this appeal, the further considera ion of which was postponed to Monday. VICE-CL ANCELL OR' S COURT, MARCH 11. TURNER V. TRELAWNEY. The reading of the evidence on behalf of the plaintiff in this part heard case, the facts of which we gave yesterday, oc cupied the Court the whole morning. ROLLS' COURT, MARCH 11. PRICE V. BAUGHAM. This case came before the Court upon further directions. The only matter that had to be decided was the construction of the residuary clause of the testator's (Mr. Coverley) will. Mr. Long Wellesley had been made a party to the suit, as being lord of the manor of certain copyholds belonging to the tes tator, but had since been dismissed. The case occupied the whole of yesterday and part of to-day. As the arguments were purely technical the case is unworthy of public notice in a Newspaper. DE WEEVER V. ROCHFORT. This was a bill filed by Amelia Johannah De Weever, an infant, by her next friend, against Colonel Rochfort, the exe cutor of the testatrix, Hannah Nixon, widow of the late Col. Nixon, of Demerara, claiming a legacy of 2,000/. The testa trix had misnamed Miss De Weever in her will, and it had, therefore, been necessary for the plaintiff to go into evidence to show tbat she was the person intended. The COURT thought the plaintiff had' established her right, and decreed accordingly. JACKSON V. COCKER. The bill in this case prayed that an agreement, alleged to have been entered into by the defendant, for the purchase of forty certificates of 50/. shares in the Bolton and Preston Railway might be specifically performed, and that the defendant might be indemnified against the calls which had been or might be made in respect of these shares subsequent to the defendant's purchase, and against all suits and actions in respect thereof. These certificates were alleged to have been purchased before the Bolton and Preston Railway Act passed, and the question raised was, whether a person purchasing scrip or certificates before the passing of the Act was or was not bound to com plete that purchase by taking a proper transfer of shares from the subscribers. The case, which is of great importance in point of principle, though comparatively insignificant in point of amount, was not concluded when the Court rose. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—CHELmsFonn, MARCH 11. Sydney Thurley. 21, and William Thurley, 23, brothers, were indicted for a burglary in the dwelling-house of Prior, and stealing a watch, his property. Mr. Knox conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Ryland the dt fence. It appeared, from the evidence adduced, that the pro secutor was a labouring man, residing at Great Hellin bury, and in the month of September he and his wife lc fc their cottage to go to work, and when they returned they found some one had broken into it, and had stolen two pounds in money and an ancient silver watch. The pri soners were labourers living in the same neighbourhood, and they were seen near the prosecutor's house on the day after the robbery, and shortly afterwards the prisoner Sidney offered the watch for sale to a watchmaker at Bishop's Stortford. One of the Essex constabulary, ac companied by another man, attempted to take the prisoners into custody, but they made a most violent resistance, and one of them bit the constable severely on the band, and they both made their escape, and were not taken for a con siderable time afterwards. The Jury found the prisoner Sydney Guilty, and cc quit•ed the other prisoner. Lord DEN MAN sentenced the prisoner to nine months' imprisonment and hard labour. Thomas Cumbers, John Cumbers, and James Ives, labourers, were convicted of breaking into an out-house belonging to Christopher Thomas Tower, Esq., the late High Sheriff of Essex, and stealing two guinea -fowls, his property. The prisoners were sentenced to twelve months' im prisonment, and as they were leaving the bar they said they wished they had been transported. WESTERN CIRCUIT....DORCHESTRII, MARCH 8. The Commission for holding the assizes for the county of Dorset was opened here on Saturday last. The calendar contained eighty prisoners, but, with a few exceptions, the offences were of a very trivial descrip tion, such as to induce one to regret that the county should he put to an enormous expense in prosecuting. A person charged with stealing an article the value of which would not be Is., will cost the county 41, or 51 in giving him three months' imprisonment, Mr. Justice Wightman presided in the Crown Court, and Mr. Justice Erskine sat at Nisi Prius. (Nisi Prius Court.) WINTER V. BUTT..--BREACH OF PROMISE OP MARRIAGE. Mr. Crowder and Mr. Barstow conducted the case fot the plaintiff; and Mr. Erie and Mr. Butt that of the de fendant. This was an action for a breach of promise of marriage. The defendant pleaded that he bad made no promise ; that, if he had done so, it had been rescinded by mutual con. sent ; and that the plaintiff was a person of immodest anc immoral character. It appeared that the plaintiff was the widow of a persot. who had kept a public-house called the Old Roomszt Weymouth ; and she had been left a widow in 1837, at which time she was only 29 years of age. Of course, no cording to the rule in actions of this nature, she was beau tiful, but it was not stated that she was accomplished. She had two daughters. The defendant was a person connected with the steam-packets, and was stated to have some share in them. In 1839 the parties became ac. quainted, and the defendant repaired to the plaintiff's Old Rooms" to lodge. This took place in June, 1830, and in a short time it would be seen that a courtship commenced between them, which was carried on in so open a manner that all their friends and acquaint ances were perfectly :mare of it, and the only person who was ignorant or innocent in the matter was the servant gitl of the plaintiff. Everything went on harmoniously; each party was pleased with the other, and such confidence had the defendant in the plaintiff that be wrote her the following letter ; and although to some persons the orthography may appear rather unique, and the capital letters appear to have been rather inopportunely introduced, yet it is understood that the charms of person of the defendant must rather have exceeded his education, as he has married a lady reputed to be worth 10,000/., and is living in good style : "June 6. "My Dear Mrs. Winter—l am truly unhappyißesp.ect ing the Bill I Have to meet Has I have Cald on a friend who I obligd with the Loan of 201.

" Capta CHAS BUTT." " to Mrs. Winter Oldrooms." The courtship progressed, but with it had grown up such an intimacy that, early in the year 1840, the appearance of the widow was of such a nature that her friends suspected that there must have been a clandestine marriage. Such, however, was not the fact; the only thing wanting to make them man and wife was the ceremony prescribed by law. The widow became dissatisfied, and in turn pressed her suit, and the packet man, therefore, from pru dential motives, sought a distant spot in which the formal ceremony should be performed, in order that all cha ritably disposed persons might reconcile it to their minds that on some previous occasion the parties had stolen a se cret match, and that they had long been united according to legal forms. It would appear that he had gone to Hal stock in order to have what is termed the banns published, and from that place ho favoured his lady lore with the fol lowing epistle : " Halstoek, March 21, 1840. " Dear Jane—l lose no time in writi ng t o i n f orm you I did not arrive here untill yesterday atternoon'three o'clock And I Assure you I wase very much fetuegd after my Jurney we cannot he cald over at Corscombe In conse quence of my not belonging t) the pearish I intend to leave for London on Monday and shall Be back pleas god by that day week content yourself, untill that time everything 4;411 be for the Lest answer this by return of post and let me know how are by so doing you will oblig t ours truly untill death " CHAS. BUTT." " to Mrs. Winter." After writing this letter he appeared completely to have changed his mind. He returned not to Weymouth for mail months, but by some strange accident, in January, 1840, the widow favoured this s'ightly populated district by the production of a son. Ia September the defendant was on board a steam( r in the port of Weymouth, and the servant girl, who had never seen anything like courting going on between the parties, was entrusted with a note to convey to the defendant on board hie ship. The contents of this note did not appear, but it was shown that the defendant was apprised of the accession to his fortune by the birth of the lit le innecent. He, however, kept far aloof, and at the end of the year took unto himself a more favoured help ante, wh eh aroused all the indignant feelings of the widow, who immediately, in the very height of her wrath, repaired to her attorney, who commenced the present ac tion on her behalf, calling upon a Jury to, compensate her for the wrong done to her, by directing the defendant to pay her a sum of money in damages for the i njury she had sustained. From the letters the defendant bad written, as well as from the mode in which the pasties had lived together, and more particularly from the fact of a marriage settlement having been prepared with the sanction and approbation of the defendant, it was clear that there had existed this engagement between them, and no proof being offered in support of the plea of justification, the Jury re turned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 1001.

(Before the Common Sergeant, Sir C. MARsuaLL ' &e.) Wednesday Michael Walsh , aged 35, was indicted for com mittina an assault upon Mary Bryan, with intent to commit a capitaroffence. The other count alleged a common assault. The child herself was examined, and detailed that which, a few years since, would have subjected the prisoner to an un timely death. . _ Two medical gentlemen were examined with regard to any injury the child had received, and their concurrent testimony was that appearances did not sustain the first count of the in dictment. The prisoner, when called on for his defence implicated himself in the minor charge. The Jury found him Guilty on the second count only. The Learned Jude sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned in the Penitentiary for one year, observing, that as the law now stood, there was no doubt that the other count was sustainable. Mary Ann Middleton was indicted for stealing divers articles of bedding, the property of John Smith, of 19, Vine-street, Clerkenwell. The evidence was conclusive, but the prisoner said she was driven to the act by distress. A verdict of Guilty having been returned, she was proved by another indictment to have been convicted of a similar offence on the 26th of February, 1838, and thereupon sen tenced to six months' imprisonment. The JUDGE said that for once he would depart from the rule laid down, and not transport, but sentence her to one year's hard labour—her plea would not avail hereafter. UNPRECEDENTED CASE.—Mary Murgetts, an interesting young woman, was indicted for throwing herself into the river, with intent to commit felo de se. The prisoner pleaded guilty. The COMMON SERGEANT told the prisoner that her offence was one forbidden in the decalogue, and by the common law of England declared to be a felony. He (the Common Sergeant) had been informed that down to the present time she enter tained a determination to destroy herself; hence, the best thing the Court could do would be to respite her judgment until the next sessions, and he hoped ere that time the chaplain of the gaol would be able to impress upon her mind the sin and folly of self-destruction. The session terminated on Tuesday night, in consequence of several of the prisoners traversing until the next. sessions, which was convenient both to the Bar and the Bench, it being the eve of the commencement of their respective cir cuits. The following were sentenced to banishment for the periods set against their respective names : For the term of Natural Life—Michael Shaw Stewart Wallace, Patrick Maxwell Stewart Wallace (the trials of these convicts occupied nearly four days, their offence being one of not unfrequent occurrence, but seldom prosecuted to conviction. ) For p Fifteen Years—Thomas Smith, Charles Powell, Daniel Monday, James Warren. For Fourteen Years—Joshua Page. For 'fen Years—Louisa Puddick (for shoplifting), Mark Goodyear, W. Smith, and Thomas Griffith. For Seven Years—George Hawkins, Charles Smith, Michael Johnson, William Carrott, Henry Coster, Nicholas Johnson, John Mitchell, George Hambley, Joseph Hambley, John Clark, Philip Young, Eliza Clark, Mary Ann Goulding, William Humphreys, Johanna Fogerty, George Collard, Charles Smith. Imprisonment and Hard Labour in the Houses of Correction where their offences were alleged to have been committed, for the periods named, viz.:— For Three Years—John Thomas. For Two Years—Ann Harding For Eighteen Months—Joseph Howard, Thomas Barker Fitz john (for letter-stealing, the first and last weeks in solitude). For One Year—Daniel Smith, John Smith, John Tredwell, William Grant, William Arnold, William Kemp. For Nine Months—J. Birch. The Grand Jury ignored the bills of indictment which were preferred against the following persons, who, by their fiat, were discharged from custody, viz.:—W. Golding, .John Mills, John Jones, Edward Newman, Moses Monday, John Melson, Charles Dahana, Eliza Wilson, Elizabeth Hilby, and Charles Edward Willis. The Court at its rising adjourned to Monday, April 5. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Thomas Thomas, a well-dressed man, was charged Kith having robbed an old gentleman, of the name of Stone, of 40/. in Bank of England notes, and a check for 13/. Bs. 6d., at the gate of the Corn Exchange in Mark-lane. The prosecutor, who is a man of athletic appearance, stated that about three o'clock on Monday, as he was leav ing the Corn Exchange, at which he had been transacting business, there was a crowd of people at the gate, some of whom were endeavouring to get in. hie observed one man who pressed very closely upon him, and it immedi ately occurred to him that he might be in dangerous com - pally. Ile, therefore, felt in his pocket, and he missed his pocket-book, which contained the property mentioned above. Ile then seized the person who pressed upon him by the collar, and at that moment saw that person pass something behind his back to the prisoner, who endeavoured to make off. Witness, however, let go the first fellow and seized the prisoner, who struggled with him, and when he ca'led for the police called as lustily as an injured man. for assistance. In the struggle the prisoner dropped something behind his back, which proved to be the pocket book in which the notes and check were deposited_ There was evidently a gang of well-dressed thieves con cerned, for the morr.ent he had been deprived of his pocket-book they made way for him to go out, but having missed it he was determined to use his best exertions for its recovery. A solicitor's clerk appeared-for the prisoner, and cross examined the prosecutor, who stated, in addition, that he observed the person he first seized beckon to the prisoner and deliver the book to him. Thomas Rye, a millwright, who was passing, deposed that he saw the prosecutor and the prisoner scuffling to gether at the gate of tho Corn Exchange. The latter dropped a pocket-book, which was immediately taken up and given to a policeman who came up. Walter Robins, a baker, said that he heard the cry of " police," and saw the prosecutor holding the prisoner, and the pocketbook dropped from the hand of the latter Alderinan WILsoN asIZCd the prisoner who he was ? Prisoner—l hope your Lordship will excuse my not say ing who or what I am. I am innocent of robbery, and I would not on any account that my friends, who are highly respectable, knew of the disgraceful situation in which I am. Alderman WlLsoN—Very well. You shall go to New gate for trial. The case is as clear as possible. Does the prosecutor think ho will recollect the face of the thief he first laid hold of ? TL prosecutor replied that he should know him, and was determined to collar him whenever he should see him. Inspector Bradley said that a robbery on the Corn Ex change was very unusual. Nothing of the kind had taken place for years there. The prisoner was committed for trial. . . Sarah Ehen was charged with having had in ber pos session Gbs. of tobacco on which the duty had not been paid. The penalty, according to Act of Parliament, for having in possession more than 6lbs. is 1001. or imprison ment for twelve calendar months ; and the Solicitor for the Customs sued for the whole amount, as the ptisoner is a notorious smuggler, and had but lately been discharged from prison, where she had been confined for a similar offence. The woman, who said that a person had made her a present of the bit of tobacco for domestic purposes, was then convicted in the full penalty. . The Solicitor for the Customs said that the labours of the smugglers had been suspended by the severe weather, but that it was expected the contraband trade would be pushed with vigour immediately. It was therefore the intention of the Board to press every case to the full extent of the law.—Committed. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Brighton Gazette.) PORTSMOUTH, March 10.—The new steamer Polyphe mus has been commissioned in the river by Lieut, John Evans, reported for service in the Mediterranean. The Indus, 84, Captain Sir James Stirling, and eor. vette Tweed, 20, Commander Douglas, went out of thn harbour to Spithead on Saturday. The latter ship is ready for sailing, except the payment of advance ; but the Indus, being short of hands, will be necessarily de tained. Three fine frigates are in rapid progress here for corn. mission, namely, the Vindictive, 50, Warspite, 50, arid Dublin, 50. Orders are also daily expected for the Ma dagascar, 46. At present not a single ship is fitting out. The brigantine Bonetta, destined for the coast of Africa, is commissioned at Chatham by Lieut. Francis Austin. The Monarch, 84, Captain Chambers, and Vernon, 50, Captain Walpole, are at Sheerness, and under orders to use eNery expedition in proceeding to Spithead. These ships have been in commission upwards of four months, but the severity of the weather has greatly retarded theft equipment. The Wolverine, 16, Captain Tucker, may be expectea in England about July next, to be paid off. Private let.. tens report her at Cape Coast Castle on the 14th December. The brigs Pelican, 18, Commander Napier, and Nauti lus, 10, Lieutenant Beaufoy, are at Spithead, ready to be despatched wherever it rr.ay be necessary. The Prince Regent, 120, has been ordered to be in spected and prepared for service, if necessa r y. The Asia, 84, Captain Fisher, is daily expected from the Mediterranean, and will proceed to Sheerness to be paid off. This ship has been in commission upwards of five years. The Fair Rosamond schooner, and new brig Bittern, 16, will shortly hoist the pendant at this port. At Spithead—lndus, 84 ; Tweed, 20 ; Pelican, 16; and Nautilus, 10. In Harbour—Queen, Victory, Excellent, Royal Georgt yacht, Rapid, and steamers Echo and Alban. INEXPLOSIBLE GUNPOWDER.-A Commis sion, under the presidency of General Gourgaud, was oc cupied a few days since, in Paris, in examining the inven tion of M. Charles Boyer, for rendering gunpowder inex plosible in magazines, without deleriorating its physical and chemical properties. At one of the sittings, M. Boyer shed a shower of sparks upon a quantity of his prepared powder, without producing ignition, and afterwards dipped a lighted sulphur match into a bottle full of the powder, and drew it out immediately, still burning, with many grains of the powder adhering to it. It was then proved by;experiment that the quality cf these last grains of pow, der had not lost any of their impelling force. STATE OF TRADE.—There is but little im provement in ;he general trade, and the failure of the United States Bank will prevent any stocks be. iug manu factured for the fa lin anticipation. A letter from a large house in New York, received to-day (Friday) states, " The recent failure of the United States Bank has entirely chang2d the prospects for a lively spring trade, and pre vents our sending criers fur the present." There is a fair amount of employment in the sprin g glove trade, which is just opening. No alteration in the prices of wools or yarns,—Leicester Mercury, _4P IN A T a MEW CHA NTS, B •NRA BI TAN TS of ttlled bi 1101.1 SE of th e 1 3( t he Mayor, hosly and respectabl. 4trictions and Prol 4kte,. rroitte upon al l p i qoas therein as may ; t T ROAIAS 801 q *as moved by Hu ( 1,1 Riettr, E f lat a 3 th e welfare kited by securing an ag ko st suited to the w es enables it ,;8 prod uctions for f'itate, or c pabiliti ( Lkilde th e fracedom c melts of the peoVe• moved by JA., HArtau;os, ; t +Qat protecti ve du the ad vantage 0 ®he a burden on of protection a ceat, d 7 res in. most ill quid in no Ile( p e cts our tradin. the fri endly feel: 'tioOs,of great min f the l a Nonr a gement th ey I ws.
