GLOBE.—The autumnal agricultural meet ings, now in course of being holden in the oar-- cultural districts, promise to be more than usually productive of matter deserving of, public regard. For this more than average crop of good things suitable to the season, we are indebted to the seed sown by Sir Robert Peel in the spring, and especially to the introduction of the new and improved system comprised in his Corn-law and Tariff; which, like most innovations, have been strenuously resisted by many, and have been regarded with jealousy by most, of the lords and cultivators of the soil. We have on more than one occasion given a sample of the produce supplied by the Waltham meeting, at which the American Minister brought things new and strange before the agriculturists of the midland counties. The Duke of Rutland, as President of the meeting, in exhorting the farm ing and grazing interests of the kingdom to post pone their judgment upon the effects of the Government measures, evidently sought to con ciliate the irate agriculturists. The amiable effort has, however, brought heavy reproaches on his own head from the organs of the interests whose "protection" the Premier has ventured to invade. The Essex Herald—through whose columns the Essex farmers pour forth their sor rows, positive and prospective—refuses to find consolation in the proffered cup presented by the hands of the Duke of Rutland. His Grace had assured the Waltham meeting—and through that meeting the agricultural interests of the country—that if the measures, the enactment' of which had occasioned so much apprehension in their minds, should supply any real grounds of alarm, those whose policy had inflicted the mis chief will set all right again by the employment of some counteracting measures. The Duke of Rutland seems to consider the great State Physician in the light of a mere empiric; who, if he has caused a derangement in the system by the employment of a pill unsuited to the constitution, and unfit for allaying the malady of the patient he undertook to cure, will try another of the numerous drugs he has in his pharmaceutical budget, by the operation of which he will endeavour to " set all to rights again." The Government, says his Grace, " will make the most vigorous exertions in order that things may be set to rights again." . Of this the limiters, and the farmers' friends, are by no means sanguine. They rather fear" further changes," of which those they have recently witnessed with dismay are but precursive. "Even now," says the Essex Herald, " with a prospect not very cheer ing before them, all the farmers desire is not to be checked in their exertions by uncertainty, and the threat of further changes." The fears of the Essex farmers are well founded. So sure as the changes of the late session are now law, further changes are inevitable. The principles launched, and the doctrines propounded by Sir Robert Peel in vindication of those changes, are instinct with life and energy. STANDARD.—It can no longer be denied that England has its war faction as well as France, and that the most prominent of the or gans of that faction in this country are as inde fatigable in the pursuit of their common object as either the National or the Courrier Frangaie. M. Thiers, at the most violent crisis of his war fever, did not rave with greater vehe mence of the benefit to be derived from placing France in collision with all the world, than do his English imitators against wliat ever policy would seem to have a pacific . or concilatory object. Having dune their best to bring England into collision with two of the greatest and most respected of her allies, France and America—having wounded the amour propre of France by a profitless discourtesy, and pi\)- yoked the angry feeling of America by needless and impotent menaces—the British war factiOn is, as may be supposed, the first to quarrel with the policy by which the consequences of its own rashness and folly have been averted. Havinc , be queathed to their successors a war in India, which e ' has been attended by disasters of the most appall ing description, and an invasion of China, in which an enormous amount of life and treasure has already been squandered without any result that can warrant such sacrifice, the organs of the late Government denounce every manifes tation of a desire to terminate so useless and un profitable a state of warfare in language of the most indignant deprecation; and without the opportunity of making themselves acquainted with the full extent of difficulty bequeathed to them by their predecessors, stigmatise the pre sent Government for the very eflbrts it is making to overcome it. Not content with a series of articles deprecating the respective topics of Lord. Ashburton's treaty with America, the Morniny Chronicle has fallen upon the correspondence. in which that treaty originated; attributing to Lord Ashburton the most apathetic dis regard of the interests of his country, because he found himself either unable to carry all his original propositions, or was induced to forego them for concessions which lie considered of equal value. The aim of Lord Ashburton, as exhibited in the correspondence which has been so unfairly commented upon, was less the appa rent value of the object in dispute than the establishment of a good boundary line between the two countries, so as to prevent collision and dispute, and an unobstructed communication of our colonies with each other. This object lie ap pears to have achieVed, and if he could have accomplished all that he contemplated in the letters which contained his propositions to Mr. Webster, no negotiation would, in point of fact, have been necessary. There must be two sides to a discussion of this description; and although it was perfectly right for Lord Ashburton to make out Ls strong a case as possible in support of his propositions, it by no means follows that he should have ad hered to them if he found that anything like an equivalent could be obtained by their partial abandonment. To hold Lord Ashburton to the precise requisitions made by him in the early stage of his negotiations would be about as ab surd as to make a distinguished advocate, who had secured for his client a verdict in a court of law, with which he is fully satisfied, and which averts a hundred future disputes, responsible for the claims he had felt it his duty to prefer in his preliminary address to the jury. ACCIDENT TO THE ISLE OF THANET STEAMER. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The Isle of Thanet steamer left Ramsgate yes. terday morning at ten o'clock for London Bridge, with about 200 pa ssengers , I b e i ng o n e am o n g the number. Upon reaching the pier at Mar gate, we took in above 100 more passengers. We left the harbour at the same time as the The Royal Adelaide. Duchess of Kent was ahead of us o ff Margate. W lien off the Recul vers, we were alarmed by the su dden escape 01 the steam f rom a p i pe near the chimney, ac companied with a tremend n ou b s l no . ise, not un like that which occurs i steam, but much louder, and the os' the page of the vessel. The Duchess of Ke l n e t which was still ahead, instantly tur ne d round, ' came 4longside of us, and tendered ass i stance . Royal Adelaide came on the oth er side; she , ' however, not only offered no assista nce , b ut , from some circumstance orpanostehn passengers on boars:egre,ranagaint our paddle-box. Several as our vessel shouted " Shame shame !" The Captain of the Isle of Thanet having stated to us that the escape of the steam was owing to a plug having been forced out of one of the cylinders, and that the accident would be speedily rectified, we were satisfied ; and, after a little delay, the steam was got up again, and we proceeded on our voyage ; but just as we passed the Isle of Sheppy, another and a loud explosion of steam took place, which produced the utmost consternation. The women and children screamed and the male passengers insisted upon hailing the Duchess of Kent, which was not far behind, our Captain at the same time vociferating that ih r w as c , no danger." The Duchess of Kent was happ ly slon alongside. I with several others jump( d on boiid the latter vessel, and many others wished to follow, but the Isle of Thanet got away by the command of the Captain. We proceeded onward, l e aving the Thanet behind, but after the lapse of half an hour. we found her gaining upon us; she soon passed us, and was quickly out of sight. Some of us shortly afterwards retired into the saloon, from Whence we were summoned on deck to witness the condition of the Thanet. There she was, ab out two miles below Gravesend, with her rts anina g acei t e l t id h er 3 l an c h or ildi vigiftlolui the md paddle -wheels, 1 . 1 i glvh We n a s signalta ial wentof a lo distress, ilg.. consequentlytnd t i i l latthe "concentri c wheel," col:- e addle-wheels, had broken, and latter could no longer re volve. painful, Th efrom scene eee here was indescribably intense anxiety of all to get on board the Duchesseto of Kent.

REFINED.—The market has beer. in a dull state for Refined Sugar, and prices have further given way. To day the Grocers operated with much caution, and prices further gave way for Refined Sugar ; 75s 6d to 76s ac cepted for standard lumps. Treacle of all sorts was in brisk request at 23s 6d to 31s per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar sells freely at 25s 6d. In • other articles there is no variation. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon a public sale of 5,996 bags went off quietly, and at a decline of 6d per cwt, but the whole was disposed of, low and mid brown at 46s to 43s 6d, good 50s to 525, low yellow 53s to 545, mid 56s to 58s 6d, good 60s to 62s 6d, low to good grey 55s to 60s per cwt.

CoFFR.E.—PriOes have again given way 3s per cwt for British Plantation, the demand having been limited and. supply good. This afternoon importers of Coffee were desirous to realise, and brought forward large par cels to public sale ; viz., 1,429 bags Ceylon, 207 bags Dutch Company's Java, 507 bags Padang, and 497 bales of Mocha. The trade evinced little desire to operate, and the public sales went off heavily ; • Ceylon only partly sold at a further reduction of 2s for the best, and is for lower sorts—good ordinary went at 62s 6d to 635, fine ordi nary 665, fine fine ordinary 73s to 76s 6d, low mid 83s Gd to 86s 6d, mid 87s to 90s ad ; Pea Berry 109 s.

The cause of the sudden and extreme dulness in the market is to be attributed to the ex tensive parcels offered, and sti:l to be brought to public sale, the quantity being much greater than the demand. _ _ MOLASSES.-Importers of West India .have obtained full rates, but the demand has been limited since Tues day last. Foreign Molasses have been selling at 7s per cwt. CocoA.-For British Plantation a reduction of is per cwt has been submitted to.

(From the Liverpool Journal of Monday.) Towards sunset yesterday evening we visited. the scene of the late conflagration, and feel that any at tempt at description would fail in the magnitude of the area, and vastness and diversity of the ruins. Some two hundred men are employed in clearing Formby-street, piling the bricks, excavating, and saving the fragments of scorched cotton and some wrecks of the property. Anything like active lire has subsided, but the masses of ruin and foundations are still smoking, and probably will do so for some days to come. A current of water is continually pouring into the lower floors and cellars, from the sewers communi cating with the canal, and all the disposable fire-en gines are playing on the parts where indications of tire yet appear. A great quantity of cotton is con stantly loading from the ruins, but in a sadly damaged condition. Some few casks of turpentine are got out, but incomparably the greater part is lost, and, it is believed, principally melted and floated down the sewer into the Mersey, where portions of it are yet cast up on the Cheshire shore. A large proportion of the bar and rod iron, belonging to the British Iron Company, has been got at, and, though damaged, will be far short of a total loss. But still the salvage will altogether bear an extremely small proportion to the destruction. Through the mass of ruin which remains a road is now cleared down Formby-street. At the lower part of it the two engines were overwhelmed. The wrecks of both are now recovered, and satisfactory proof afforded that no loss of life occurred in that quarter. In the excavation from the upper end of the street, one of the first objects which presented itself was one much more melancholy, in the body of poor Hodgson, the policeman. Hodgson was busy at his work, directin g; his branch against the angle of the warehouse which . abutted on the cottages, when the building suddenly toppled over and instantaneously buried him at his post, branch in hand. Mr. Highton, of the Borough Gaol, . had gallantly volunteered his services in a work in which he had much experience when he formerly held a command in the police force and shared every danger. Mr. H. was one of the last, if not the last person who saw him, and the body was found exactly at the spot where he indi cated. He was found on his knees, with his arms ex tended, his branch under him. It is a consolation to believe that his death was instantaneous, for besides fractures in his limbs, his head was literally crushed to pieces. His body, far advanced in decomposition, was removed to the dead-house in Prince s Dock, where it now lies awaiting the inquest. Among the many claims on public gratitude, there are none stronger than those of his surviving relations. But the great loss of life took place in the ware house-sheds fronting to Neptune-street. As they were burning at one end, efforts, in a great measure successful, were perseveringly made to empty them at the other. In the further of the two warehouses, occupied by Mr. M' Knight, a sudden shrinking or explosion involved three labourers, who were em ployed in removing the goods, in the flames. Their shrieks for help were truly horrifying. Mr/ Rushton, our stipendiary Magistrate, Mr. Highton, go vernor of the Borough gaol, with Mr. Whitty, and an in spector of the force, were speedily on the spot, and extricated the whole of them. They were sent to the Infirmary, where two died almost immediately, and the third survives, dreadfully injured. In a warehouse-shed, further up the same street, but totally burned, another fatal accident took place. Mr. Whitty, with a party, were busy endeavouring to save the goods, and to restrain the fire, when the end of the building gave way, and the beams fell on those below. One man literally had his head cut off, another had his thighs broken, and both bodies fell into the flames. It is incorrect that there was any effort made to save these poor men—none could be made. The brick-floor, of this shed is now cleared, and all that was found of their remains was a few calcined hones, and some metal articles about their persons. Mr. Whitty effected his retreat with great difficulty, and this was one of the many narrow escapes which he had on that eventful day. These are the principal of the unfortunate events which the survey of the ruins recals. The total loss of life, we are happy to state, falls far short of rumour. It certainly does not exceed eight, and may possibly, for any decidedly certain evidence that appears, be only six. £85,069 18 2i DOWNING-STREET, OCT. 4.

The beneficial operation of the New; Copy right Act is already sensibly felt in this country; and will continue .to be more and more per ? Rived ; for its provisions are so stringent, and its penalties so severe, against piracy, that those who have hitherto trafficked in it with impunity, now pause and tremble. Circulating libraries in all parts or the country are compeled to dis continue p urc h as ing (even had they- any longer the opportunity) and lending out a single copy of a tbreign edition of an English work. The mere having it in their possession, ticketed and marked as a library . Look, exposes them to the 101. penalty. The immediate consequence that the libraries are forced to purchase legiti mate copies of English works. But a remoter and far more important consequence may be perceived : this effect of the new law will tend to the publication and circulation of works of more solid merit than we have for some time been accustomed to in libraries of this description. But while this good effect is produced at home, we trust it will extend to the Colonies, to which the Act is expressly extended, and where it is of the utmostimportanee that it should be vigo bAomthe rously and faithfully carried out. At present, they purchas e almost exclusively these pirated forr icaribarnadrieraend individuals. French ° books, ing and exp o rt houses, at home have only to put their forei g n agents on the qui vice, and we shall copies soon have to report the same beneficial effects in our colonial possessions, which, with gratitude to the Legislature, we now announce that we are experiencing at home. "A Continuation of Rotteck's Universal His tory" has been published in German, by K. H. Hermes, un der the title of " Geschichte d e r Letzten 25 Jahre" (History of the last Twenty ' fi'veYears), in two volumes. It is written in a truly' liberal spirit, and a plain, unpretending style; and receives a certain kind of unity from its commencing with the fbrmation of the Holy Alliance, arid then pursuing the events in the light of the ideas which actuated the Sovereigns who formed that celebrated alliance. Accord ing to the author's opinion, the spell with which they had nearly succeeded in binding the conti nental nations; was first broken by the late Mr. Canning's celebrated toast at Harwich—"Li berty civil and religious, all over t h e wor ld!" cc Der Deutsche Oberrheiu" (The German Up per Rhine during the Wars from the Peace of Westphalia to the year 1801), by C. de la Roche; Stuttgard, 1842.—" Der freie Deutsche Rhein" (The Free German Rhine), by H. B. Oppenheina.—The first of these works recals the recollection of Germany to the intrigues and cruel devastations with which the French have fin Centuries acted against her, in order to push - their frontiers to the Rhine, and to distract, weaken, and enslave the German people. The second gives a history of the rapacious legisla tion and fiscal institutions by which German Princes and Nobles, and in more recent times France, and still more Rolland, have impeded the navigation of that fine river, and crippled German industry and commerce. National unity, security 'of frontiers, and extension of trade and manufactures, are the three leading ideas which DOW actuate the German mind, and seem to be more and . more affecting German litemiture. Even some time before they ob tained such a leading influence, the best intel lects of the nation began to turn from works of imagination to researches in history; and now that a practical end for these researches has been found, the number of labourers in this depart ment has been increasing every year. The Ger mans are evidently descending from the region of the clouds to our firm earth ; and as they are in earnest in all they do, we entertain no doubt - that within a very few years they will on this practical stage astonish and affect the world even more than they have done in the regions of ima gination and pure thought. It is for this reason that we have so often invited the attention of our readers to works of this character issuing from the German press. • _ _ A small volume on the liberty of the press in England, published at Berlin in 1841, has lately fallen into our hands, which presents a clear and concise account, not only of the Libel-law as it it now exists, but also of its history, in this coun try. To us, who are no lawyers, it conveyed much information ; and we have no doubt it would do so to others, and would therefore, in an English dress, b e we l co me to many who know nothing of this l aw b y i ts "glorious uncertainty." The Chancellor of the Eichequer returns to town to-morrow from the Isle of Wight. Lord Stanley leaves town on 'Thursday for Knows ley Park, Lancashi re , on a v isit to his father, the Earl of Derby. SPLIT IN THE TORT TOWN COUNCIL OF COL CHESTBR.-Mr. S. G. Cooke, who recently served the office of Mayor of Colchester, and is universally re spected by all parties •in the • town for his straight forward and upright conduct, yesterday resigned the office of Alder man, i n di s g us t at certain proceedings of that exclusively T ory b o dy, in connection with the proposed erection of a new town - hall for the borough.

About 77,000 establishments of trade and industry, 4,400 public houses, 330 hotels, 470 beer shops, 960 spirit and wine shops. There are six bridges over the Thames at London. London docks cover 20 acres ; 14 tobacco warehouses, 14 acres ; and the wine cellars 3 acres, containing 22,000 pipes. The two West In dian Docks cover 51 acres. St. Catherine's Docks cover 24 acres. The Surrey Docks, on the opposite aide, are also very large. there are generally about 5,000 vessels and 3,090 boats on the river, employing 8,000 watermen and 4,000 labourers. London pays about one-third the window-duty in .England, the number of houses assessed being about 120,000, rated at up wards of five millions sterling. The house rental is probably seven or eight millions.-Knight's London. On Saturday night, shortly after ten o'clock, a fatal fire broke out in the dwelling-house of Mrs. Montague, situate in Brompton-square, Brompton. It appears that about ten o clock the servant put the youngest child o' Mrs. Montague to bed in the front attic, leaving a candle burning on a chest of drawers. Soon afterwards an alarm was given of the house being on fire, when upon Mrs. Montague's mother go!ng to the apartment she discovered the interior enveloped in flames. With great courage she rushed through them and seized the infant from the bed, but in returning both of them were frightfully burnt, in fact to su c h an extent that the child died in an hour or so after wards The grandmother remains in a most deplorable condition, and is con:iidered in imminent danger. The fire was not extinguished until the whole of the furniture in the room was consumed. A STRANGE STORY.—A strange story is in circu lation, that the son of a Scotch Peer, h av i ng b een harshly used whilst a youth by his father, fled and entered as a common seaman on board of a man-of war, where be was known by the name of Peter. Whilst in this capacity, he often amused his shipmates by telling them that he should some day become a Lord, and that, when he did, they should all be wel come to his castle. At length the old Lord died, and his son took possession of the estate, and many of his shipmates are said to have since resided with him, an old tower being fitted up for their accommoda tion. One of his sisters in his absence had married a Spaniard, and is now residing in ttpain, and his Lordship has left Scotland on h visit to her. Before he went, however, he offered a sum to any man who should discover a youth, named " George, ' to whom his Lordship in early life had become attached. This man George is said to have been discovered a few days since at Worthing, and it is supposed that he will soon make an attempt to reach his Lordship. Such are the reports in circulation ' • but we do no t vouch for their accuracy.—Brighton Herald. It is not perhaps generally known that many of the iron masters are generous enough to allow from 2s. Cd. to 10s. a week to several old workmen, when quite unable to do anything. Anthony Hill, E sq., of Plymouth iron-works, used to exhibit a benevolent example in such acts until the Union of 1831. It is said that he has not given so much since that me morable twisting epoch. William Crayshaw, E sq ., gave 10s. a week to old Rees Beynon for sonic v ea , s up to the time 'of his death. Other masters, it seems, - 1 act similarly.—Monmouthshire Merlin. DEDUCTIONS.

The approaching contest for the office of High Bailiff of Southwark, vacant by the death of Mr. Holmes, will be, it is expected, a very severe one. Mr. Daniel 'Whittle Harvey, the chief 'Commissioner of the City Police, Alderman Sir William Heygate, Mr. Pritchard, of Doctors'-commons, and Air. Payne, the City Coroner, are the candidates. It is whispered about that the salary will be reduced, but that report has not diminished the number of candidates, nor in duced them to abate a jot of their exertions for victory.

Bd. upon his last account, THE WEATHER.-011 Saturday afternoon,, about half-past one o'clock, we experienced an appalling thunder storm, accompanied with heavy rain, which continued to pour down in tremendous volumes for upwards of half an hour, making our streets and lanes to r un i n t orrents to the depth of several inches, while the thunder immediately over-head burst louder and more fearfully on the ear than the dis charges of the heaviest artillery. About half -past two the elements were hushed, the sky suddenly cleared up, and the sun shone out in all his g l ory , leaving scarce a trace of the terrific war of elements that had raged so terrifically but a few minutes before. Towards evening we had occasional showers ; and during the whole of the week we have been visited with rainy and boisterous weather ; so much so, in deed, that the steam navigation between here and London has been considerably interrupted.--Dover Chronicle. DEATH OF A SOLDIER FROM THE RIOTS. —One of the soldiers who were wounded during the riots at .11alifax has died of his wounds. His name was Francis Williams, anti he was only 19 years of age. He died at his father's house at Sneinton, on the 16th of September. When on duty nt Halifax he was struck with a brickbat on the head, h tu l e d by swne of the mob, which so- stunned him that he fell from his horse, and came in contact with his sword, which was drawn at the time, receiving a severe wound on the right arm.
