A Public Meeting was held last night at the White fai'nduit House Tavern, for the fv a-pose of taking into consideration ,the 'state of the country and the mea sures necessary to be - adopted tO • alleviate the distres's of the people. • The meeting was called for: six o'clock, and at:that hour the doors were surrounded by persons, mostly in labourers' attire, eager to obtain admission to the large room where the meeting was 'to . be held; an attempt was made, however, ,to keep out these people on the ground that this was a Meeting of the Electors of Finsbury, and n,. t a Cliartst meeting, Mr. Rouie; the proprietor of the hAtSe,- having. positively refused, when the room way hired, to allow it. to be used, at all, if it were in tended to turn the .meeting into a Chartist demonstra tion.' We imagine that - the attempt .to keepl:out the honest non-electors ti as unsueeessful, as we found by ha =p'a'st six that the 'large room, which is capable of ' holding, on a moderat c;lculation 2,600 people, was crowded to excess; and though we obServed numbers of the 'nest respectable inhabitants of 1' n;- bury present, there were many 'the - A., who, ,their appearance, 'evidently- advocated the " six points." . The room was lighted with gas, and imme diately behind the Whair, affixed against the wall, were plper3 with the inscription, " Peace,: Law, and Order,"? in large letters. The orchestral gallery was tilled with respectahly attired females, and there were several ladies also upoh the Platform. * — Shortly lk-fore seven o'clock T. Duncombe, Esq . ~ M.P., F: Esq., It. BunCoinbe, Esq., G. Rogers, Esq., Mr. fletherington,llr. Nicholson, and. a great many other gentlemen, .entered on' the plat form amidst the most deaftruing cheers. G. Rogers, Esq., was then moved to the chair. The CHAIRMAN having mounted the table, com menced amidst loud cheers.' These are critical times, and we must mind what we are about. That (point ing to, the words " Peace, Law, and Order") is our banner, and under that we shall 'conqiier. It was • necessary to Convene the meeting regularly, and re gttlarity required. that he should tell how 'the meeting had been convened. 'They, had been left without a 'proper officer in this &trough, so. they had no means. of calling a meeting except by the electors themselves ; and in order to leave no pretence for saving that this was an illegal meeting, the electors had . 'had recourse to the mode pointed out by the Act of Parliament. (The Chairman then proceeded ti read the requisition Convening the meeting.' It was couched in the, usual terms, and was signed by 25 electors) _lle (the Chairman) had also taken the liberty of sending a. copy of the requisition .to Sir J. Graham; which he: accompanied with the following note : " ha t there may be no pretence for a repetition thia . - evening of thrg police !lilies, not to say outrages, which have taken place 'during the last few days, I beg leave to present yo❑ with 'a:list of the . conveners of the Finsbury- meeting, and I remain, Sir, • . " Your 'very obedient humble servant, " S.. ROGERS. " To Sir J. Graham; Bari.; M.P., &e. &e." He had received no answer to that little note, so he presumed there no was objection to this . meeting, and that this was to every intent .and. purpose legal— even in the estimation of the distinguished and sensi tive Baronet.— (Loud cheers,) It became them, then, now to consider how they were best to exercise that poWer which they as electors possessed, for the benefit of those who 'had no privilege.—(Loud cheers.) There might be shades of opinion as to the degree to which the suffrage ought to be extended, but there could be no difference in the opinion that as Englishmen, they ought to see that right and justice was done to the lowest man of the community, and that an injury done to any man in the community ought to be felt all through the body politic as a blow struck at every one.—(Loud 'cheers, and cries of " Adjourn," which became so loud as to render the. Chairman's remarks inaudible.) He concluded by saying, that though there were many present who were not electors, he could not t allow any one to ad dress the meeting except he were an elector. Mr. MoORE read a letter from Mr. Wakley, ex-' pressive of his deep sorrow that he still laboured under the, severe indisposition .which compelled him to remain absent from the House of Commons during the last six weeks, and that he should be . precluded thereby from being present at this meeting. At the same time, he begged to assure the meeting that he united with them. in desiring immediate legislative reform in the . House of Commons, and it was his firm conviction, that unless such an organic change was speedily effected by law, the best interests of the country would be involved in confusion and ruin. Class legislation had been the curse of millions.—, (Cheers followed the reading of this letter.) Mr. JAMES SAVAGE rose, amidst cries of " Ad journ, adjourn," to move the first resolution; which was as follows That this meeting learns with sorrow anddismay, that nearly the whole of the manu facturing population have foregone their own indus trial occupations; that the discontent of the people has in some places . broken into open violence ; that encounters have taken place, accompanied with loss of life ; and that in fact civil war is raging over so large a part of Great Britain, as threatens effectually to destroy the security of property in every part of the kingdom." The whole of this gentleman's observations were rendered quite inaudible by the cries from the multi tilde at the farther end of . the room to adjourn. The CHAIRMAN said that the Committee had con sidered the question of adjournment, in case it should be broached, and that they had come to the conclu sion that it would be best to retain the integrity of the . meeting, by remaining +here they were. He trusted they would consent. to hear the resolutions in that room, however oppressive the heat might be, and to pass them if they approved them.(Silence was restored for a moment, but the cries for adjournment became.again so Glamourous , that it was found neces sary to consent to the wishes of by far the greater part of those assembled,. and the meeting adjourned' to the large area between the house and the pleasure grounds ;' this immense space, which is calculated to hold between 7,000 and 8,000 persons, and we think the calculation is not exaggerated, was immediately filled. Notwithstanding the immense numbers pre sent, the adjournment was effected in a most peace able and orderly manner. Mr. WAiKEit then rose to second the resolution. This was a most glorious meeting.—(Cheers.) No man could look on an assembly so immense as this, conducting itself so well as this, and admit that it was not a sufficient answer to the statement which had been made that the people could not meet in an or derly manner. Every man present acted as a police man to himself—a gentle one--(Loud cheers)—and if every man kept himself in order, there would be no disturbance of the peace.—(Cheers.) Order was Heaven's first law, and if they departed from'order they departed from one great principle which ought to accompany all their proceedings. It was a beauti ful sight to behold a body of from ,10,000 to 20,000 people assembled to sympathise with their ma nUfacturing brethren. It was not for him to trace the evils which had caused the distress, the mode, of alleviating.Which.they were now called on to con-'. sider, to particular sources. He would sum them up in the general remark, that the people at large, not having control over the Legislature were, placed through that cause in their present unfortunate con dition,--(LOud cheers.) The object of nearly all the public political ineetingi which had been, held during the last ten years, had been for the purpose of advo cating an extension of the representation '• and that , was the great principle which they advocated now.— (Loud ° cheers.) The, Parliament of the people should represent the people, and to that end it was only 'necessary that the people should exercise their ancient constitutional privileges.—(Cheers.). Let them use, then, firm but respectful language, advocate the 'principle which would extend their rights; and he was. ,glad to say that they had a principle on which they might safely rest—he meant the principle of the Charter.—(Loud cheers.) At the same time, that he said that, he would add, that he approved of the. exertions of the Anti-Corn-laW League —(Loud cheers) He was in favour of that which would con duce to the benefit of the country.—(Renewed cheers.) Now. caine the question as to the means of obtaining their object. They must 'obtain' it in the same wayas they obtained the Reform Bill. And how was :that gained ? By meeting . and continuing to meet ; by petitioning and continuing, to petition, and to discuss, and that was t'he course they must pursue now.—(Loud cheers.) An attempt had been made to put down public discussions—siieb a thing was impossible. An Englishman, always sympathised' with a fellow-creature ih distress, and evil indeed would be that day when the expression —aye, and the practical expression of that spmpathy was not per-, 7 mitted.---(Loud cheers) lie concluded by expressing his hearty concurrence with everything contained in the resolution which he had the great pleasure and honour of seconding.—(Loud eheers.) . The reSolution was then . carried am(lst immerse . applause. Mr. Ws.-rsox moved the following resolution : " That without.pretending to judge accurately of the immediate causes of this sudden'attack, this meeting find no difficulty in deciding that the remote, all powerful, and all-prodacing cause, has been class le gislation, which, by promoting class interest at the ex pense of th e genera l i n t er e s t, has at length produced such extensive exhaustion of the resources of the whole body, that general pressure has prOduced gene ral distress. Class set . against class, and man against man, by the sectional and individual endea vour to escape from the general distress." Ile per fectly cobvided with eve r ythi ng conta i ne d i n that re solution. He knew that the evils of the country were attributable to class legislation and to that alone.— (Loud cheers.) That was no new opinion of his— it was no new opinion of the meeting : and he 1 , Government that their system of .legislating , tor elusive interest:; would pr(shiek what hucl now. tulthippily oecurred.—(Cheers.) 11e 1111.3 certaiu that that 16tem could nut long resist rtriv_vt,gr)A-v TR N ' t ""er 1 ,„ • - ! the enlightened,efihrts- of the Veople to remove it.— (Cheers.) They however must remember that their enemies were abroad,,(llear, hear) —and that they would rejoice in' nothing more than that the . people should be exasperated into acts .of iiolencel and their cause Wits to be gained by exhibiting such a front: as he now was happy to see 'before him--(Cheers)— and by peace, firmness, perseveranCe, and order— ,;(l-lear, hear.) - Let there he no-midnight meetings— (Hear). Let their meetings be in the face of day; for truth had nothing to fear, and the cau*of truth was -sure of success, when it was advueated by honest, tem perate, and '..zealous_ nieti.=-(hear.) The present system of class legrsiation could, not he maintained otl . erwise .than Uy, the' pwple giving to the present. Government that., power of erupthylng military -co-. ercion for whicilthey- were watching. He hoped the it.!lectors throughout. 'the kingdom would do as the electors of Finsbury had dune th;:t evening, and give their fellow-countrymen an opportunity of expressing their opin:ons, and making known their wants, and their -w rungs, in a calm, peaceable, and dispassionate manner. Before he concludcd t he would entreat the • middle claSseS, and those who lilissessed the franchise, to remember that a great - number of their fellow "coun':ryinen were in prison, and that with respect to those, they would be called upon to discharge a duty, which, ha hoped ih6y Would discharge in a reasonable, just, and becoming i Ht. - (j300 cheers) Whilstthe would them _most earnestly never to cease in. legal and peaceable endeavours until the people were represented ; at the same time, - he hoped, nay, he had every confidence that they would not give their enemies any justification for calling them cowards on the - taw hanikor ruffians on the other.— (Cheers.) - He concluded bilhoving the resolution he had read.- Mr. FISHER - seconded the resolution ilCa brief speech. . The CILUEMAN said that several gentlemen were desirous to address the meeting, ,but as he knew they were all impatient to hear their worthy and approved Representative, he recommended that the movers and seconders of the other resolutions should content -them selves with barely performing that duty, without ad ding Many observations of their own.- 7 ---(Hear, hear, and great laughter.) The resolution was then put and carried by accla mation. .Mr. WEsT then' moved, and Mr. FINCH seconded, the third resolutiOn, which was to the following ef feCt :—" That this meeting have no hope of remedy in the measures hitherto pursued. We see no hope of peace.in the poor, ,destroying factories, or the resi dences of the rich, because the owners give no greater wages than the demands of class legislation leave it in their power to give; nor do we see any . hope Of Peace in the rich coercing the poor because they endeavour to avoid starvation. These only tend to, aggravate evils Which can only be remedied by the removal, of class legislation, and therefore we recommend that a petition founded on these resolutions be presented to the Queen, praying that her INlajesty he graciously pleased to convene the Parliament, and take means 0' securing to the people such a representation as will be in conthrmity with the prayers of the petitions presented to the House of Commons last session, and which petitions were signed by millions of her Ma jesty's loyal subjects." The resolution having been put, several hands were held up against it, amidst vehement cries of " No more petition—we have had enough of that." It was carried; however, by a majority of many thousands to about twenty. The next resolution, • to - the effect, that tbe.Chair man should sign the petition.oa.hehalf of the Meeting, and that the Members for the l3orough should be re quested to present it to her Majesty, was carried unanimously. Mr. SAVAGE then came forward'to move a resolu tion; to the effect, that the thanks of the meeting be tendered to their excellent representative, Mr. Thus Duncombe—(Most vehement cheering)—for his in defatigable perseverance in the cause of popular liberty, and his readiness -at all times to respond to the call of his constituents.—(Cheers.) In proposing that resolution, he must obierve . that he had nit voted for Mr. Duncombe, but had always given his utmost labour to secure the return of their •other presentative.—(Some disapprobation, •an.l cries of " Where is he now ?" f o ll owe d by laughter.) But whenever he (Mr.... Savage) had gone to apply to Mr. Duncombe for anything likely to serve the cause .of the people in Parliament, he found that that gentleman was entitled. to the gratitude of his constituents,. and he regretted that he did - not know Mr. Duncombe's merits when he was first a candidate for the representation of Finsbury. • Mr. STALvnainon seconded the' resolution, Which was carried unanimously, and amidst deafening and• long-continued cheering from the assembled multi tude, m hose numbers (densely packed) at this time were scarcely legs than nine, orperhaps ten, thousand. Alr. T. DUNCOMBE having. come forward to ae knowledge the compliment, was greeted by a burst of the most enthusiastic cheering and applause, which, lasted several minutes. Ile was one of those (he said) who always considered, since he had the honour to sit in Parliament as a representative of the people, that it was his duty first to attend to the interest of the people in his place in Parliament—and how he had performed that duty he was happy to be, able to judge by the kind and flattering manner in which the meeting had received the resolution which had just been passed.—(Renewed cheers.) But there was an', other duty- - • Which at all times it gave him the great est satisfaction to perform—and never more so than on the present. occasion—it was the duty of meeting his constituents—he could not say now in the. "light of day "—(Laughterit was quite dark)-but of meeting " face to•face" those who sent him to Parlia ment.-7(Cheers.) He had the honour of meeting them on this occasion, in a great and portentous crisis of the country.—(Hear.) It was said, that for the value of a Government and the character of its administration,. they should look to the condition of the people.—(Hear, hear.) If the charaeter of the present Government was to be estimated by that test, be would say, look to the condition of the millions.— (Cheers.) It was certainly but a few days since— 'Only on the 12th of the present • month—when her Majesty went down to dissolve the Parliament, and delivered a speech, of which he would say, that of all the speeches—of all the sentences—(Laughter and groans)—ever put into a Sovereign's mouth, the speech which the present Cabinet had the presumption to put Lito the mouth of her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, was unrivalled for falsehood, hypocrisy, and cruelty, in the Parliamentary • annals of this country. —(Loud cries of " True, true," and" Shame Shame!) Now, what had her Majesty een made to say by her present Ministers ? The very first sentence was, that thee" state of public business enabled her to release the Members of Parliament from their duties, which they bad discharged, in a manner that reflected het greatest credit on themselves."— (Laughter) He only wondered why the speech did not add : " and most satisfactory to the people:"—(Renewed laugh ter.) He asked, in what way had the - Members/if the House of Commons-reflected credit on themselves, by their conduct as representativei of the people ? (Hear, hear.) By contempt for the petitions ,of the people—indifference to their sufferings,—and perse vering a relentless class legislation.—(Cheers.) This was the way in which that assembly was &envied - during the session; at the end of which they. were told, . that they had nobly and satisfactorily discharged their arduous duties—(A laugh)—and what state of the country had their labours brought about ?—(Hear, hear.) How often had Ministers been warned in the House by him and others, that what. had exactly happened would oome to pass if they persisted in turning a deaf ear to •the complaints of the , suffering people ? How often had they been told that. if they persevered in their iniquitious and nefarious course, the social frame of the community would be dissolved, and the peace of the eountrypt4d not be Worth 4Shours' purchase?. He had told them that they shouid..enforce a call of the House, and bring the Members back to their places, for the purpose of considering what could be done for the starving people.—(Hear.) But some had grouse,' some pheasants; and some partridges to I ook to —and he reminded them that they had something else to look to, their tenants, whom they might find against their expectations, they could not bully in vain. --(Cheers.) • For this admonition he had received groans, such as generally, follow ,jt home Euth in the House of Commons, but harno effect upon hirrii— (Loud chef But scarcely "had. the tones oh the Queen's voice died upon the ear of those wht heard her read the speech—scarcely had the ink. with which it was rinted, dried on the pa: er, when a proclamation was issued, declaring that the whIlli• of the North of England was in a state of . insurrec tion,-(Hear, hear.) Why, if Parliament were sit ting they ought to be impeached, although they felt so secure in their venal, corrupt, and packed majority, that. they would laugh at impeaehment.—(Hear.) He hoped that the example of Finsbury would be followed -all over the country. The course proposed- by the: solutions was a most legitimate one--to address the Queen ; and, if invariably adopted, it might succeed. If it did not, and the winter were allowed to come upon the manuracturing population in ':al • the misery which threatened them, bayonets and bludgeons might silence the complaints of suffering for the time, but they would neither terminate the discontent of the- people nor the .dangers of the State. --(Cheers.) The resolutions hit the right nail on the head, when they struck at class legislation, the thon tain-head of all evil which the country suffered. Until every man of mature age had a voice in th. legislation, there would be no protection for the in terests of the people, and no security for the prOperty of the rich.—(llear, hear.) He would have grew satisfaction in conveying the petiton of that tneytini y as near to the throne as he could approach it.

But they could not sup press public opinion, and though the Whig press Might tell the people not to trustFeargus O'Connor— that he was a demagogue, a hypocrite, and a rascal— yet he would say that be believed he stood as well with the people as any man in England—(lmmense cheering)—and he believed his excellent friend, Mr. Duncombe, held as high a place in their affections.— (Loud cheers.) He (Air. Duncombe) had come be . - fore them, and he had. heard their cheers at his approach, and how proud must he not be at the. forest of true English hands held up as the me rnori it of their approbation, which had that night been conveyed. to him. He (Mr. O'Conn or ) h a d • w i atched him well. He had found him holiest to the back, and he would say that he hoped his friend would . " leaven the whole."—(Loud cheers.) With regdrd to the diiturbances. in the North he would' say that the working men had nothing whatever to do with them, neither had the Chartists ; and in proof of this he might tell them that the Delegates from the trades had now dissolved their sittings, with the determination to meet again when the country was in a fitter state to understand their motives. Now, he knew that he was in danger, and if lie stood on a precipice, he thanked God that their cause rested on a sure foundation.—(Cheers.) For if every .jeader's . head were taken off, they would spring up like poppies ' and for every five that was killed, a h un d re d would be found to supply- their places.—(Cheers.) He had,now. said his say—(Cries of" No, go on ") and he thanked his friends for the hearing they had g iren him. Many thought, perhaps, that he had come there to disturb all the good that they had done ; not so— he had come to support and , assist the m , a nd t o ad vise them not to adopt ph y sical force, f or t h e y m i g ht depend upon it that the Government wished first to fill their gaols with prisoners, and then that every Judge were a Jeffreys, and that the Jury were twelve ruthless butchers.--(Cheers.) Let them adopt peace able measurei„and as he must say one word ab.)ut old Paddy, he would tell them that Paddy was a fine fellow, and that he would lend them his support; but let them take care that the same Bill which the Government had passed for Ireland they did not pass for England.

A few policemen were stationed at the doors, and a few at the point where Penton-street joins the New-road, but there was no necessity even for them. The most quiet, orderly dis position, marked the proceedings from the commence ment of the meeting till its adjournment, and till the immense assemblage became lost, one'by one, in the numerous streets of the metropolis. HAMBURGH MAIL. _ . WIEMAR, Auo..l3.—We hear from several persons who have come direct from St. Petersburgh, that no accident whatever disturbed the fetes, which sur passed in splendour everything of the kind before seen, celebrated. on the twenty-fifth anniversary of their Majesties' marriage, as the mysterious hints of many journals would lead us to believe. Petersburg, they say, was lost in astonishment at the unparalleled magnificence displayed on the occasion. The grandest fete, they say, was a great tournament.' FRANKFORT, AUG. 13.—Well informed persons of this city, affirm that there is not a word of truth in all the reports which have been circulated respecting events at St. Petersburgh. PeOple here are vexed that the Russian. papers have not made mention of the feglivities. The public curiosity will, however, be soon gratified, for we learn that a competent Ger man writer will shortly publish a circumstantial . . de scription of these fetes. ST. PETERSDURGH, ..A.m.l9.—While the King of Prussia was here the fleet assembled in the roads of Crofistadt, consisting of 18 ships of the line and 20 fri gates, together with 2 Dutch frigates and 60 smaller vessels, which presented a very fine sight, which was heightened by innumerable steamers and merchantmen which at this time always fill the roads. An Imperial ukase of the 6th of July, respecting the building of the bridge over the Neva, declares that it being. impossible to defray the expenses from the ordinary resources of the ,city, his Majesty finds it necessary to borrow the sum required from the banks of the empire ; .for the reimbursement of this loan Which is to be effected in 37 years, all.foreign goods imported into St. Petersburgh shall pay, in addition to the present duties,. 1-1 per cent. The levying of this additional duty shall commence from the Ist of January, 1843, and is to be extended to all articles of inipolt which, up to the time fixed, remain in the warehouse of the. Custom-house of St.Petersburgh. After several weeks' uninterrupted rain, we have had, for the last few days, h.)t and dry weather, which is very welcome to the farmers, who can now finish their hay making. BERLIN,. AUG. 16.—For some weeks we have had oppressively hot weather, which being accompanied by a dry wind, has done much injury to the fruits of the earth, and been the cause of the leaves of the trees withering and fading off as in autumn. Though our city lies so low, the springs which supplylmany mills are already dried up, and this evil is sti 1 more seriously felt in the neighbouring villages which are situated on higher ground, On account of the scar city of water the grand review will not take place. The garrison of Potsdam returns home to-morrow, and a,cbange in the-weather is much wished for. - HAMBURGH, AUG, 19.—We, too, suffer from the extreme heat.

S LIMERICK, AUG. 20.—Shortly before two o'clock o'clock on the morning of yesterday, this city_ and neighbourhood was visited by' one of the miist. awful thunder-storms known for a long time.' ' The tirst.:cra.sh of the clouds was like to nothing but the instantaneous discharge of a full park of artillery, and the lightning Was truly terrific, and literally illumined the. streets. We are, however, happy to state, that up to this hour no damage has been heard of. The dread clamour of the elements • continued in successive peals for three hours, and was 'accompanied by a heavy ftill 'of rain. The sultry state of the atmosphere for some days before this, accompanied by oppressive heat, prepared us for an explosion of the kind, but not anything equal to the awful conflict which followed, and was calculated to make the most nervous heart shudder. The temperature is since cool, and there has teen a copious fall of rain. [The Waterford, Cork, and other southern papers con tain similar accounts of the thunder-storm.] THE HARVEST.— Already in a number of far.ns in this neighbourhood the shearing is comple:ed, and mail of the fields are now cleared, and their produce com mitted to the stack-yard in the finest possitile condition. There is now no doubt whatever as to the superiOr qua lity of the grain, the samples which have been brought to market being of beautiful colour and great weight. The harvest will be a most abundant one, bet even if it • were to turn poorly out on the barn-floor,.as many Ter sons were disposed to i.nticipate, the highly superior qua lity of the grain would more than compensate for any trifling defalcation in bulk. So far as has yet been ; ascertained, however, there is no reason for any appre hension as to quantity. On the contrary,, the yield seems to be as ample as the quality is superior to the or- 1 dinary Seasous. „There is a great want of pastur, which, although much tenefited by the rains which fell ten days ago, are still bare, and by no mean's adequate to the wants of the stock-unavoidably plaCtel upon therm The potato and :tureip crop s -notwithstanding the severe drought, are generally looking. well --lin some instances, indeed, the crops are excellent. —Edinburgh • Paper. THE WINE HARVEST.-,74IIONZINGE ON .THE NAHE, . AUG. 13.--Y_ estertlay Wine Was drunk in the.house of M. Fuchs, made this year from the produce of his o w n vineyard ;it was very excellent. In general We expect that the vintage will be of a superior quality, f or t h e weather which we have had for some Weeks past has con tributed to the early ripening of the grape. We remem ber that in the remarkable year 1811, the first wine was tried a week later, and this was considered something very extraordinary. Frankfort, August 15.—The spe culators in our wine districts, expecting a very produc tive year, flattered themselves- that th meeting of the Deputies of the Customs' Union at Stutgard would com ply with their wishes expressed in a petition, and impose a very heavy duty on the importation of French wines. We learn, however, that this petition has not had the desired effect, the Deputies being resolved not to enter upon a course that might lead to prohibition and repri sals, the consequences of which would he very injurious.

FIRE' AT SALISBURY.—At eight o'clock on Satur day evening a very alarming fire broke out in the ex tensive malting premises belonging to Messrs. Roe and ' CO., at Pain's:hill, in this city. Shortly after the flames gained a complete ascendancy of the whole building. At • twenttminutes past nine o' chick the roof of the entire building fell in, and illuminated the whole city. At this time great fears were entertained for the safety of the Dolphin Inn, which adjoins th e scene o f the con flagration. At one o'clock the scen e was appalling, for at this time the burning element had ignited some back' cellarage ; but shortly after the communication Was cut off, and the roofs of three more houses fell in with a dreadful crash. The progress hence was happily stopped. Among the sufferers are Messrs. Roe and Co.;• .the Merridew family ; Ceoper, a labourer ; Mr. Giddons, brewer ; Mr. Kitto, clerk to collector of excise ; Mr. Hiscocks, builder ; Mr. Coombs, cabinet maker; Mr. Andrews, grocer; Mr. /shush, corn-dealer; Mr. Conway, publican ; Mr. Wheeler, book-keeper ; Mr. Neate, and many others. It is very singular that this is the identical spot where the wretched. ssoman Ea: ter murdered her children on th e 3d of August last. DUNDEE.—The people of Dundee, a n d more par ticularly the authorities, have been in a very excited state this week, owing to the fearful nature of the ac counts received from England and some parts of Scot land, and thealarming prospect of matters in our own town. Summonses have been issued to a considerable number of individuals,, to arpear and be sworn in al. special constables ; and a met wig of the Commissioners of Police was called by order of the .Provost last night ; when they were directed to hold themselves in readi ness to summon out the constables at' any time to a proper rendezvous, there to await the orders of the Ma- Danger is ri pMiteal,.(l ; and than the pre- Alat4istra,(: , of Dur.d..e we believe there are few in worse qualified`' W avert the dar evr.--Dendut • It, on i THE METROPOLITAN CHARTISTS. At the three great foci of the Chartists on the Middlesex side of the river, namely Paddington green, with Cleritetwell-green and Islington -green,. there was but very slight demonstration of popular .feeling during yesterday evening; owing to the strict prohibitory regulations of the police. At the bridge joining Westbourne-green, Paddington, the people had collected in detached groups, and were discussing with much apparent vehemence the conduct of the pOlice in connection with what they (the speakers) contended was only an exercise of the right of public discussicrn. Large bodies of morktn_en- were engaged upon the numerous new buildings which are about being erected in the - neighbourhood, bit they took no nntiee. of -the idlers . who were lounging about. At Islington-green up'tp nine o clock there was no sign Of any meeting being contemplated to be held there. A number of individuals, apparently belonging to tlit lowest class, thronged all .the avenues leading to Clerkenwell-green, but the regulations of the police being to prevent them congregating in masses upon the _green, they were compelled to move from place to place, and as many as, poSsible were prevented from returning. As an indication of the animus of `'the people, we may state that in almost everyinstance all theplacards issued by the.police Magistrates and "OPniniassioners which were posted along the New road . were defaced. . . THE WEATHER—FOREIGN CORN.—Of the . weather we have only to say that it is all that can be wished, and if it continues thus but a little longer, of which there is every prospect, there are few districts of the coun!ry in which the sickle will not be in operation. In Limerick and Waterford the holders of foreign corn are paying the duty—in the latter. indeed, all that was in bond has been released; In our own city, too, the duty has been paying, though not in large quantities. The quantity entered during the week ended 6th Aug. was in round numbers 1,380 quarters ; -week ended 13th August (Sa turday), 2,670 quarters. On Monday duty was paid on 1,142 quarters . ; on Tuesday, on 930 quarters. The quantity now in warehouse is 30,000 quarters, the duty on which (amounting, at Bs. a quarter, to 12,0001.) will probably be paid by Saturday, or soon after.--:Cork Paper. CURE OF CHOLERA BY LARGE DO3Es OF CALOMEL. —On the 10th instant, a man, who had been only a few days in Whitecross-street prison, was taken alarmingly ill in the night with spasmodic cholera. He wa.; attended by Mr. Wadd, the able surgeon of the building, who ad ministered large doses of calomel every hour with .suc cess.- On the fourth day the patient was out of danger. and he is now fast recovering his strength. Nearly one ounce of calomel was administered within the first 24 hours, after the plan of Mr. Charles Bennet at Bethnal green workhouse in 1831. Another case occurred in private practice immediately afterwards to Mr. Wadd with equal success. A collapse had taken place, and there appeared all the symptoms of approachitig dissoln tion, but the calomel stopped the f..ightfnl progress of the disorder, and the patient ravidly recoveriug. 1 Wily of their character, and were able to estimate the A N CIL,CNODI‘OII:s .TUESDAY, E S s I O IA A lyi.

MAN CHES .T.ER . , Monday Eveninia Ha ,Affairs in this town _ hate been very. during the day, although the returnto labour kW been near so general as was anticipated. Tranquillity, and the exertions of the civil power to suppress all disturbance, still continue. ~At twe o'clock informa tion was received at the Town-hall, that a very large 1 assemblage was taking place in the ground, near the A Tucker's Gardens, St. George's-road, who had marched there in procession from different parts of the town. It was ascertained that the object of the ;meeting was to make an.attempt to turn out the few I hands who had returned into employMent this morn ing. It was considered by the authorities prudent ti disperse the meeting; and 150 of the police force, and 250 - sPecial constables, with an• adequate military force,--Marched to the spot. This large detachment , was accompanied by the Mayor and two of the 'Borough Magistrates, who gave orders to Capt. Sle7gh 1 to - disperse the meeting, which he did but with ad. !slight resistance. 'From reports heard this afternoon, affairs in the out districts of Lancashire remain in a tranquil state. MONDAY :MORNING, ELF:I'2N O'CLOCIL—The dis turbed districts are nearly in the same state as this town. Although the workmen of Ashton-under- Lyne were the first cause of all these disturbances, tio actual rioting took place until Friday haat, on which occasion only was the Riot Act read during the late turbulent Week. On that occasion a large mob made an attack on the bricklayers engaged in the erection of some new premises in the Market- square, in order to compel them to discontinue, work. The Riot Act was - then read, and•thfapolice succeeded in capturing two . of the leading rioters. Three others were cap tured during the night by the police, one of whom Was armed with a pike, and the other with two leaden weights in the form-pf a sling. The former whose name is Foden, is a well known Chartist speaker, who _has at Mottram and other places frequently : advocated physical force; and another is also a speaker at these meetings of the name of Hindley, who is blind in both eyes. Another, party, Dukeathe chairman of several of the meetings, has been also arrested on a charge of sedition. The military force consists of about 100 of 1 the Stith Regiment, who are quartered in the Town hall, of two -. pieces of artillery which arrived on Wednesday from Manchester, and of a troop of Dra gOons, and the civil force has been augmented by 340 special constables. The print works at Shepley were at work, and it was announced that the extensive silk mills of Messrs. Wariklins would re-commence to-day. There appeared to be a general disposition on the part of the operatives to return to their employ, hut some fresh placards were issued round the streets recom mentittrtlrefti :fit te- de sokuntil Wednesday. -*; At Staleybridge call remained quiet. A detach- Ment ofDragoons arrived from Manchester on Friday evening, When upwards of 400 special constables were sworn in, prior to which the inhabitants were in con siderable alarm._ It is here expected that the opera tives will recommence work on Wednesday. On Friday night a detachment of Dragoons was 'sent Over from, this place to Dukinfield to preserve the peace, and they did not return to quarters until near midnight. At this place and at Denton on Saturday the Magistrates' were busily engaged swearing in special constables,' for' the first time since the out break. At Hyde there wah a slight distprbance on .., Saturday on account of the attempted apprehension of aChartist leader of the name of Leach, who was rescued by a mob,and several of the police and special constables were severely beaten. - The address of Sir James Graham to the Lord-Lieutenant of Cheshire 'has been printed and extensively circulated through the streets. An alarm being given at Ashton that upwards of a thousand colliers Were marching towards Clayttn and . Medlock Vale, a detachment of the 58th Regi ment was sent from Ashton to intercept ,them, but the alarm turned out to be groundless. In this dis trict :it was resolved to open all the mills thin morning., so that all who wEre inclined might return to employment. Two of the mills have been at work since Thursday, one of which is protected by seventy of the hands, who have been sworn in as special con stables. They have not yet had any obstruction in returning to work, and noinjury his been done to property. We regret to state that the return to work ,thi* morning has been very partial, and not near so gene ral as was expected. The fine spinners have prin cipally returned, but they were paid higher wages than the. other classes of hands.. At Messrs. Birley's mills, and the Oxford-road Twist Company's mills, in Oxford-road, the parties who went back were refused employment. All the .police and special constables were on duty at five o'clock this morning, in order to protect the persons who returned to work, and will continue to patrol the streets throughout the day. A meeting was expected to take place this morning at five o'clock, on Kersall Moor, but no congregation of persons had been seen on that spot up to.this hour. QUARTER.PAST ELEVEN O'CIA)CK.—The oxlcial reports at the Town-hall show that only nine mills were at work. The hands were protected in goirig work with the imposing force of 1,500 police anl special constables under the command of Captain Sleigh,- the able and efficient assistant-commissioner of police. We regret to say from his information that large mobs are collecting in the different parts, who express their resolution to turn the hands omit again. The . streets in le- peiglibourhood of tire 1'iSCII:111T are ciWded persons ready for active and immediate service. At Salford all is quiet. BLACKBURN, Sunday Night, Twelve o'Cloek. • Although it was generally believed in Burnley ot 4 Friday that a numerous mob Of turn-out rioters from Rochdale and Bacup was to invade that town during. thatcday, and thence male' a descent with increased Mrinbers on Blackburn, nothing of the kinalia.'s oc curred.. Near Accrington, however, on Friday, the rioters attacked the works of Messrs. Hoyle, in the vicinity; arid were repulsed by the inmates. Intelligence has been received here. to 7 day Of the arrest of the Chairman of the Trades 'Delegates at Manchester. • The moment this intelligence arrived, Mr. Neville, with that promptitude which has so dis tinguished him during the riots, at once ordered :some hundred bills to be printed, posted up in the publics places, and distributed among the people, announci.4g the arrest. ; We are sorry that it is not. in our power to say that there are any indications of a return to lab'jur on on the part of the many thousands of operatives in this crowded workshop of the cotton manufacture. The general belief to-day is, that there _will not be a. single cotton-mill chimney smoking in Blackburn. The large mills of Messrs. Wn. H. llornby:and Co, employing no fewer than 1,500 hands, were the only mills at full work on Saturday. It is also morq than probable that Mr. Hornby's hands, along with the few still remaining .in the mills of Messrs.' Townley, and in that of Mr. Forrest, will join 'the general "strike" to• morrow morning. How long this strike will con tinue is of course a matter ,of uncertainty.
