HIGH NN A TEN AT LONDON BRIDGE THIS DAY. klm mug 2 minutes after 5 I Evening l9 minutes after 5, LONDON : SATURD NY MORNING, AUGUST 27, 1842. Notwithstanding the additional outbreak at Chard and Dundee, we trust that the disturbance is at an end ; at least all preSent danger is passed. The rising price 'of manufactured goods, and the falling price of food, inspiring both masters and men with hope, have contributed most potently to restore peace. But now that the danger presses no longer, parties and persons, imme diately or remotely connected with the question, begin hotly to criminate and accuse each other. One says the Magistrates ought at once to have stopped the people from Ashton and Staley bridge, when they proposed to march into Man chester; and another launches out into bold in vective neainst the dilatoriness of the Govern ment. 'We will not follow the footsteps of our Contemporaries. The Government has dispatched a gentleman to Manchester, to in quire into the..origin of the 'turn-out, and into all the proceedings connected with it. For his Report of the proximate causes of the rise and progress:of this extensive and extraordinary in surrection rre .shall wait ; but to inform us of its Yemote and primary causes, we need not Mr. GREGORY'S assistance. On that point our opi nion is already formed, and Mr. GREGORY'S in vestigations are not likely to shake it. To say one Word in .defence of the Whig and :Anti-Corn-law Magistrates of Manchester, and of the Tory Ministers, whose promptitude we have already applauded, we must observe that the MancheStet Magistrates bad no right to stop men coming from Ashton to Manchester who had committed no offence. The Magistrates did not want' a row, and therefore they prudently did not begin pile. Though Manchester was af terwards the head-quarters of the Turn-outs, the wisdom of the Magistrates in not provoking irri tation by interference before it was absolutely called for; proved by the fact that in Manches ter very little destruction was effected. As for the Ministers 'not sending troops enough, and tipeedily enough, why their defence, and the de fence of every man accused of being concerned with it, is, that such an extensive outbreak was wholly unibreseen. For all ordinary occurrences there were troops enough in the neighbourhood of Manchester; and when the turn-out became almost insnintiheously general, the Ministers might well hesitate, if they did hesitate, before diminishing the military force of the metropolis by a single man. The general and spontaneous nature of the turn-out seems to us, combined with the fact that the manufacturing districts were previously pretty well tupplieil with troops, and more were very speedily sent, a full justification of the Mi nisters, as members of the Executive Government against the hasty accusations of some Whig journals. They were quite ready enough to em ploy the Soldiery. As to the priMary cause of the turn-out, it is undoubtedly to be fbund in the.deep and all-per vading discontent of the working-classes. They are studiously excluded from the benefit of the Constitution, and at the same time are ground down to the most extreme poverty and destitu tion. in this condition it bashappened, from the balanned state of political parties in the country, that appeals, have-been very generally made to them for support. The Tories have formed Con servative operative societies, and continually sought aid, when the Whigs were in office, by appealing to the working-classes. The interest of the people is deeply involved in the Poor-law, and on that point especially they were made by the Tories to feel themselves of great importance, and were excited against the Whigs. The Whigs, on their part, appea l e d to t h e people for support, that they might get c h eap f oo d. Th e Anti-Corn law League made continual efforts, and nearly as often failed, to obtain their co-operation for the repeal of the Corn-law. On all these accounts, putting aside any flattery from their own Press,. the working, classes, had formed a I ; 41; 4 , 4 .4 , 4 •0 . 31, • , , AN, 1% .11LAP9 14 M- 0 -1 4 , 1111.- - . 11046, 3 A ."! • . , "orto, • - , AZ Ztit ntat. . • notion, in conjunction with their great discon tent, that they were, politically speaking, very powerful. They were therefore generally ready to exhibit their power; and from these feelings, when a beginning was given. the turn-out, it became general and spontaneous. _ We beg it may be remembered that we assign neither, praise nor blame to any party; we only give an outline of what appears to us to have been the feelings which led to the outbreak. There were great general discontent alid, a conviction of possessing great power. We ex onerate no parties nor classes from the charge of having caused those feelings. All parties, without designing it, have so wrought for their own purposes as to contribute to this general discontent and general conviction. Some have committed injustice others have held our Corn laws up to odium; others again have openly, and perhaps not improperly, fanned the flame of discontent. Journals of all kinds have aided to bring about the result. Some have vilified the Poor-law ; others have condemned the Corn-law; others the new law for registration ; butall have contributed to generate discontent,' in conjunction with a no tion of power. Exonerating none, neither can we blame any, except that great and nume rous pp which , constituting the majority o f the ru g classes, has resolutely persisted in maintaining, in defiance of remonstrance and warning, a great, though long established system of injustice. In making these observations, we have, we think, clearly defined the extent to which the Anti-Corn-law League has contributed—in com mon, we admit, with ourselves—to excite an un easy state of mind, without, in the smallest de gree, wishing to provoke a turn-out for wages. We have assisted in generating discontent, and in making man believe that he was more power ful than the work of his hands, or the idols that he worships. In stating that, we are far from making an apology for either the League or our selves; on the contrary, it is honourable to the League. To set forth the evils of an institution, and place them distinctly before the people, is the legitimate and proper way to procure its re form. Blame belongs not to us, or the League, but to those who frame and maintain the unjust law. We are far (says the Liverpool Times, a journal with which we agree), from denying that recent discussions on the subject of the Corn-laws have not had a mis chievous effect on the peace of the country, and it is per haps the greatest of all the objections to those laws, and to laws designed to benefit a particular class at the ex pense of the community, that they set one portion of the people in deadly opposition to another, and rouse the very worst passions in the minds of all. This is itself a strong additional reason for desiring the repeal of such laws. It would indeed be difficult to over•estimate the mischief produced by discussions such as those which have lately occurred, in which the landlords on one hand have been represented as tyrants, and the manufacturers on the other, have been described as unprincipled schemers, striving, under the pretence of humanity, to destroy the prosperity of the landed interest, and at the same time to force down the wages of their own labourers. That is a just view of the influence which the League may have had; and, acknowledging its influence to that extent, the League should boldly set at defiance those calumniators who seek to make the community believe that the Members of it planned the turn out, which was chiefly directed against them selves. We have never been anxious to de fend the League, because that implies a conscious ness of wrong. The League needs no defence. It has struggled nobly, manfully, patiently, at great expense of time and money, to obtain a just and righteous end. We do not copy an ar ticle which appears in the Anti-Bread-Tax Cir cular, though it is a complete vindication of the League, because all rational men praise and bless its exertions. Very soon it will find the best vindication in the price of corn, and the discon tent of the farmers. Already that price has fallen so low that it has becoime profitable, it is said, to export wheat to Belgium. Already the farmers begin to be alarmed, and when they piteously implore, and the landlords ostentatiously grant, as they most probably will before Christmas, a reduction of rent, the League will be completely vindicated by its present opponents in the face of the whole world. Another large failure in the corn speculation trade took place yesterday. The party's name is Richmond, a Quaker. The exact amount is not yet ascertained. LAW BOOKS FOR NEW ZEALAND.—According to the Parliamentary Paper, No. 583, there were pur chased and supplied to the Government of New Zea land, in 1840, 3 copies cf " Plunket's Australian Ma gistrate," 1 copy of " Archbold's Practice," 4 vols. of " Blackstone's Commentaries," 2 sets of " Black tone's Commentaries," 1 set of " Burn's Jus tice," 2 of " Archbold's Pleading and Evidence," and 1 of " Abbott on Shipping ;" also " Burn's Justice," complete in 5 vols., price 101.,1 set of the " Statutes at Large," in 22 vols., and 1 set of Acts of Parlia ment, from Magna Charta to the 2d of Victoria. For a new colony, of which the Governor is a Commander of the Navy, that seems to us a very ample supply of law books. Their cost, it is true, was only 1411., but then law books will not do much towards clearing the wilderness andbringing an unbroken soil in to cultivation. It was not with such tools that the early settlers esta blished the present United States. The Wakefield scheme of colonization is stigmatised as a mistake, because it attempts to give the peculiarities of so ciety, formed by the necessities of a narrow space, to a society which has space at its command. But what is that to the pedantry of ruling a 'new society by " Abbot on Shipping," or " Archbold's Practice," or the " Statutes at Large ?" Captain Hobson bids fair to have as many litigants as subjects, and the colony to be a more agreeable place for barristers than farmers. The large estates of Montague E. N. Parker, Esq., late M.P. for South Devonshire, situate at Paynton, on the.river Dart, are to be sold by George Robins in log::, next week, at Totnes. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, FRIDAY.—This morning about seven o'clock her Majesty's private band, and the band of the 2d Life Guards, performed a serenade on the South terrace of the Castle, in honour of Prince Albert's birthday. At half-past one o'clock her Majesty the Queen Dowager, attended by the Countess of Sh e ffi e ld an d the Earl: of Denbigh; her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, attended by her Lady in Waiting; and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Charlotte Dundas, arrived at the Castle to pay congratulatory visits on the auspicious event. The illustrious party remained to lunch with her Majesty and Prince Albert. The Queen Dowager and suite, and the Duchess of Gloucester left at three o'clock. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, the Duchess of Kent, and the Duke of Saxe Coburg Gotha, after wards left the Castle in a pony phaeton and four, and drove through the street to the Great Park, at tended by the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk, Lady Mary Howard, Viscount and Viscountess Canning, and the rest of the visitors, and also the whole of the Royal Suite in pony phaetons. The Earl of Jersey arrived on a visit. The Rev. Lord Wriothesley Russell, Lord Charles Wellesley, Dowager Lady Lyttelton, Major-General and Lady Isabella Wemyss, and Mr. George Edward and the Hon. Mrs. Anson, will have the honour of joining the Royal dinner party this evening. Both bands will be in attendance at the Castle. The whole of the visitors are expected to leave to morrow. The town is generally illuminated, and a splendid display of fireworks under the superintendence of Mr. Fenwick, will take place at nine o'clock upon the Round Tower. Her Majesty and the Prince took their early walk in the Home Park. The Prince of Wales - and the Princess ROyal were taken out, both morning and afternoon, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton. Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, left Bushey House, Bushey Park, yesterday morning, to pay a visit of congratulation to her Majesty and her illus trious Consort, on the auspicious return of Prince Albert's natal day. His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge arrived at his residence in St. James's Palace, on Thursday night, from the north. Yesterday his Royal Highness went to Kew. _ tiir Jam — es Graham arrived in town yesterday morn ing from a visit to her Majesty at Windsor Castle. The Earl of Aberdeen had an interview with the Right Hon. Baronet at the Home-office in the after noon. Sir James afterwards left town on his return to Windsor Castle. The Agent for Jamaica, and Mr. Marryatt, had an interview with Lord Stanley yesterday at the Colo nial-office. Baron de Moncorvo, the Portuguese Minister, transacted business yesterday at the Foreign-office. Mr. Thornton, Deputy-Chairman of the Stamps and Taxes, had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday, at his 0 ffi ei al residence in Downing -street, The Rev, De, molding had an interview with Lerd Stanley yesterday, at the Colonialloitee. PRINCE Atitiit.T'S BIRTHDAY. ii‘LIJMINATION S. Vesieeday being the anniversary of the birth day of his Royal Highness Prince Albert, most of the tradesmen to the Household, and other patriotic individuals, testified their loyalty and re spect by illuminating in the usual manner. The illuminations, though by no means so numerous as of late, were still plentiful enough. The following are amongst the most attractive : THE THEATRES.—Her Majesty's Theatre ex hibited a gorgeous illumination. It consisted of the letters P.A. in amber-coloured lamps of large dimen sions, encircled by laurel wreaths, and surmounted by a splendid coronet of variegated lamps. The Haymarket.—A plain star of variegated lamps in the centre, with the letters P. A. in amber. BOND-STREET.—Mitchell, publisher, No. 33, ex hibited an elegant radiating gas s t ar o f the order of the Bath, with the initials P. A. in its centre. Bishop, goldsmith, No. 170.—P. A. in amber-co loured lamps, with a lozenge star in the centre, sur mounted by a projecting crown, and supported by a gun in variegated lamps. Storr and Mortimer, jewellers, No. 156.—A very elegant gas crown of large dimensions. Delcroix, perfumer, No. 158.—The initials P. A. in amber-coloured lamps, with a projecting crown of amber and purple lamps in the centre. PICCADILLY.—Robson and Co., house decorators. —The initials, P. A., in elegant gas, with a star in the centre. REGENT-STREET.—Ponsonby and Son, plate-glass warehouse.—This house present e d one blaze of light, the whole of the balconies being illuminated with gas. THE lIAYMARKET.—BreckneII, Turner, and Son, tallow-chandlers.—A most magnificent single gas star of immense dimensions. This was decidedly the most beautiful " star of . the night," and attracted universal admiration. PANToN-STREET.—Garrard, silversmith.—The ini tials P. A. in amber, with a projecting crown i n th e centre in variegated lamps. ST. JAMES ' S-STREET.—The Guard's Club House.— This illumination was decidedly the most magnificent of the night, and attracted the greatest number of spectators. It comprised two splendid stars of the Order of the Bath in gas, beneath which was the orb or mound in green, purple, and amber-coloured lamps, and on each side the letters P. A. in jets of gas ; the whole being surmounted by a magnificent crown. Crockford's Club House.—A splendid projecting crown in variegated lamps, with the Star of the Or der of the Garter formed in gas jets. Beneath this were the letters P. A., encircled with splendid wreaths, composed of green, red, and amber-coloured lamps. This display also attracted a large concourse of persons. PALL-MALL.—Messrs. Graves and Company, the print-sellers, exhibited a splendid Brunswick star, with the letters P. A. in the centre. None of the public offices throughout the metropo lis were illuminated, neither did we observe any of the Club-houses, save those which we have already men tioned. The streets at the West-end were crowded with respectable-looking persons ; indeed, the neighbour hood of St. James's-street, Bond-street, and Picca dilly, presented the appearance o f a f a i r . S evera l bands ' paraded the streets, playing the National Anthem, and the utmost order and good feeling seemed to animate the sight-seekers, who thronged the streets until a late hour. THEQUEEN IN THE HIGHLANDS. The last Sovereign that visited the Highlands of Scotland was also a Queen—the beautiful and un fortunate Mary Queen of Scots. The Royal journey was made about the same time of the year as that proposed by Queen Victoria; but Mary rode on horse back. Roads there were none ; and no wheeled car riage was seen north:of Perth before 1715. Ch ar l es the Second, when in Scotland, during the Common wealth, was crowned at Scone, on New Year's :ay, 1651 ; but while the sceptre was held by the more vigorous and able hand of Cromwell, Charles is scarcely entitled to the honours of monarchy ; and he does not seem to have made any perambulation of our Highland district. The Scottish Queen left Stirling on the 18th of August (old style) in the year 1562, and took nine days in travelling to Aberdeen. The ac commodations could not have been very princely, for the two secretaries—Randolph and Maitland—who accompanied Mary, had to sleep together in the same bed ! From Aberdeen the Queen proceeded to Inverness, and the room then occupied as her parlour is now the counting-room or office of Mr. Ferguson, wine-merchant. The house has since been completely modernised in appearance—the old turnpike-stair and projecting balcony, with the capacious kitchen, are removed. Mary got but a stormy re ception here. The Marquis of liuntly was all paramount, and he was in arms against the Crown. The Castle of Inverness was taken by storm, and the Governor put to death. The Queen was of an intrepid spirit—she had not then tasted deep of adversity; and Randolph writes that, when the Lords and others at Inverness came to her in the morning, after the watch, she wished she had been a man " to know what life it was to lie all night in the fields, or to walk the causeway (rough enough our causeway was then, and long afterwards, though often darned) with a knapsack, a Glasgow buckler, and a broad-sword !" Queen Victoria visits the North in happier times; but if danger were near, she would be as little inclined to quail as her predecessor. Her journey will be one continued triumph. If a parallel were drawn between the state of Scotland at Mary's journey, and as it is now, with its com merce, its means of communication, its arts and luxuries, it would be seen how much may be done by industry and public spirit, supported by freedom, in surmounting the difficulties of a rugged soil and northern climate. We wish that Queen Victoria had resolved on penetrating as far north as Queen Mary ; but this may be done at some future period. At all events (as we consider the whole of the High lands t 3 be within our beat), we shall attend the Royal movements, and chronicle them faithfully and fully for our readers.—lnverness Courier. THE DISTURBANCES IN THE MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS. MANCHESTER, Thursday Morn ing. All is peaceable at present here, but whether the calm is brought about by a dread of the consequences which might result from a collision with the civil and military power, still on active duty, or the discontents are secretly plotting measures for a more serious out break, is snore than can be determined, and hundreds of persons in this town arid throughout this district look upon matters as by no means presenting the ap pearance which the lovers of peace and order would wish. It is a fact, known and acknowledged by all, that the return to work is by no means general, as was anticipated would be the case yesterday, or at all events to-day ; and from the fact of a number of specials being again called to duty last night, after having been released from their labours, it is reason able to• suppose the authorities do not anticipate a restoration to the usual state of things. This morn ing a meeting of power.•loom weavers was held in Tinker's-gardens, which was attended by between 300 and 400 persons. Some speeches were made of an inflammatory character, and a resolution was come to, unanimously, not to return to work until they ob tained from the masters the advance of wages which they demanded. Information was given to the police of the meeting, and a party of that body, under the command of Superintendent Stephenson, was des patched to disperse them ; but on their arrival at the spot the meeting had separated.. MANCHESTER, Friday Evening. The town has been quiet all day, and a number of special constables have been dismissed, but there are no more hands at work than yesterday. The most sanguine hopes are entertained that if the workmen would resume work, trade would again be as prosperous as it has been. The sales of cotton at Liverpool to-day are 5,000 bags. A meeting of the Anti Corn-law League was held last evening, at which Mr. Cobden, M.P., spoke, and endeavoured to show that the League have nothing to do with the present disturbances. EXAMINATION OF PRISONERS-THE SEDITIOUS PLACARD. Turner and Leech, who were remanded on Tues day last, were again brought up this day at the New Bailey, Manchester, before Mr. J. F. Foster and Mr. D. Maude, in order to their being committed. The charge against the prisoners was for a general conspiracy to disturb the public peace. The Court committed them to the Assizes for trial, but would admit them to bail in 4001. and two sure ties of 2001. each, to give 48 hours' notice of bail. Isaac Tinker and George Seddon, who are charged with using violent language and taking part in break ing into the AdelphiWorks at Salford, were re manded to Tuesday, in consequence of its being stated that the principal witness against them was out of the way, and had been so since "Wednesday. ton ' . THE SUN, LOVb&T, SAtURDAV EVENING, AUGUST 184. Joseph town, John Riley, and James Barton, were also committed for a riot and attack on the Manches ter and Leeds Railway. . . The President of the Ti ItIOS Delegates' (Chartist) Confereitc, Alexander Hutchinson, who was fi nally examined on Friday, at the New Bailey, on a charge of having presided at an illegal meet ing, is a mechanic in the employ of Messrs. Sharp and Roberts. He is an intelligent man, and was once editor of a Magazine c a ll e d the Trades' Journal, in which he exposed the mischievousness and inutility of strikes of4orkmen, with the view to keep up wages. It was stated by Hutchinson's attorney, before the Court on Tuesday, that his client had indi vidually opposed the resolution come to by the dele gates, upon which the present proceedings against him are founded ; but that, as he did not believe there was any thing illegal in it, he considered it his duty, as chairman of the meeting, to sign it and procure its publication. These circumstances, added to Hutchin son's previous good character and steady conduct, vouched for by his late employers, Sharp and Ro berts, and Mr. Fiirbairn, have excited much interest in his case. Hutchinson is of border extraction and education. FRIDAY MORNING, QUARTER PAST ELEVEN. So satisfactory was the state of things in this district that the daily reports which have been made to the Home office were last evening not despatched, there being nothing of importance to communicate. The fustian cutters and power-loom weavers, are however, still out, and manifest no disposition to re turn to. their work unless the masters accede to their demand for higher wages. This morning • placards are being posted on the walls, announcing a meeting of Chartists for to-mor row night (Saturday), at which a lecture will be de liVered on the state of affairs, the causes of the riots, and their connexion with the Anti-Corn-law League. MANCHESTER, FRIDAY MORNING. -One of the most crowded meetings of the members of the Anti- Corn-law League took place last evening, at the rooms in Newall's-buildings, Manchester, that has been held for some time. After the routine business of the evening, the secretary reported the registering of 421 new members in Manchester, and 600 in Liverpool, in addition to the 1,800 names 'received a week since, and Mr. Cobden occupied the time by delivering a long and eloquent speech: ' _ . LANCASTER, Aug. 25. The turn-out still continues in this town, and there is no appearance of matters being accommodated. This morning a meeting was held on the Green Area, as on several former occasions, when a few hundreds assembled. They were addressed by some stranger, the burden of whose speech was, "don't go in." All is, however, quiet. OLDHAM, Friday Morning. All is quiet in this town, but work is not generally resumed. The authorities are, however, still ready, in case any further outbreak should take place. APPREHENSION OF WHITE, THE BIR- The quotation of Mexican declined to 34+ 34i, although it has not been mentioned in the official lists to-day. The. Share Market has improved to a trifling ex tent—London and Birmingham being 182 184 ; Birmingham and Gloucester, 40 42 • Great Western, 854 864. ; the Half Shares, 66 664 ; South West ern, 621- 63} ; North Midland, 57 59 ; the New Shares, 28 29 ; Eastern Counties, 9 9+ ; Blackwall, 8* 8*; Northern and Eastern, 38i 39 ; and Brighton, 33 33 1 - per share. The Exchanges were again all better to-day—Am sterdam being 12 6+; Rotterdam, 12 6* ; Antwerp, 12 4} 12 44 Hamburgh, 13 12, 1.3 12} ; Frankfort, 1501. 151-4-, and Paris, 25f. 80c., 25f. 82ic. The large amount V bills offering on these several countries must lead to the conclusion that an increase in the export trade is going on. It is generally the case that at this season of the year a drain takes place upon the Bank of England for gold, and a corresponding decline in the rates on foreign countries. Now, however, the contrary has to be noticed, and if it be, as it is generally attributed, to the late relaxation in the Corn-laws, it becomes a serious question as to how much might be affected if a total alteration in them should take place. It may here be mentioned that another and an extensive failure has occurred in the Corn-market to-day.

He always enjoyed go o d health, and worked in the field until just before his death. I have assumed a rtiofe threatening appearance. All the mills in Carlisle, with the exception Of Nib; have now stopped work, and at about eleven o'clock a numerous body of turn-outs, amounting, it is said, to five or six hundred men, proceeded towardl3 the factory of Messrs. Rothwell and Co., with the avowed intention bf forcing the workmen there to join the movement. As they marched in procession through the town the greatest excitement existed. The yeomanry had just returned to their quarters, after the morning pa rade, when they were again summoned to duty, and proceeded, under the directions of the Magistracy, on the road which the turn-outs had taken. It happened fortunately, however, that their services were not re quired. The mob had been met by George Head, Esq., of Nickerby, and, yielding to his remonstrances, were induced to forego their intention of proceeding to the factory. The Magistrates, however, have taken effectual means to prevent the persons peaceably engaged there from being molested or intimidated, and a company of the 66th has been stationed in the factory for their protection. As yet the people are quiet, but the number of disaffected operatives have considerably in creased, and those who have the opportunity of know ing their feelings speak of the dangers of tv-night. A great commotion has just been caused by the arrival of some prisoners from Wigton. It appears that last night, about eleven o'clock, some serious rioting took place in that town. The military were pelted by the mob, and all the windows of the prin cipal inns were smashed. Lieut. Blunt, of the 66th, was dangerously wounded on the head by the blow of a stone, and it became necessary to have the Riot Act read before the tumult was i n V any way checked. Several of the rioters were then taken, and three of them have already arrived in custody, having been committed to Carlisle gaol. Others are also expected. So great was the excitement of the populace along the line of road by which the prisoners passed, that it was deemed expedient to protect their arrival by a large body of special constable's a troop of yeomanry and a company of foot. This had the effect of intimi dating the mob, and the prisoners were safely lodged in gaol. Large parties continue to beg in the neighbourhood of the town, and levy large contributions. In many places they have compelled labourers, even in the country, to leave their work ; and have turned out many of the men engaged oa the Maryport and Car lisle Railway. Some Chartist delegates from Manchester were secretly in the town yesterday, and left this morning by railway for Newcastle, in company with another one of the leaders of the Carlisle Chartists, who re cently figured as chairman at meetings in Manchester. It is rumoured that the Newcastle colliers intend to strike. Business of all kinds is nearly at a stand in Carlisle. The turn-outs are quite destitute, and we understand already complain of hunger, but they evince no disposition to return to their work. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS, CJTX, FRIDAY EVENING. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TlMES.—Additional facts are continually trans spiring respecting . the investigation into the frauds at the Custom-house, and it is now more than ever re gretted, that the Board of Commissioners is not an open Court, and that the public are not at once in formed of the proceedings that are carried on, instead of having to trust to vague rumours alone, which ne cessarily compromise the character of a vast number of individuals, since, in the present uncertain state of the case, it is impossible to ascertain with certainty to whom blame in reality attaches. It is understood that the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Deane, being at present out of town, the investigation is carried on by Messrs. Dowding and Weston, Surveyors-General, the Right Hon. G. Dawson, Commissioner, and Mr. Howe, the Inspector-General. The frauds already discovered seem to have been of various kinds. In silks and butters they have been very extensive. The former have been passed at low values, and a low rate of duty has been charged upon them accordingly. This species of fraud has long kept affairs in an unsettled state, as several of the agents who charged but a fair rate of commission were astonished that they could not find employment from the silk houses. The fact is, that conducting their business honestly, they were unable to offer such advantages as those who were connected with the fraud. Butters have been passed at 1 per cwt. under weight; spirits have been declared to be wine ; false packages, known in the slang. of. illicit trade as " dummies," have been shipped for the drawback, which has sometimes been obtained on spurious- wines, &c., and all this with the connivance of those who received emoluments to pro tect the revenue, when in fact they were filling their pockets by its plunder. So profitable has this dis honest trade'been, that one party, it is said, has made no less than 1,0001. in a single week. The names of several of the suspended persons have already trans pired, but in the present state of the affair it is not advisable to publish them. • The new scale of corn duties and the tariff a , e working by degrees their effect upon the speculators, who were hardy enough to doubt their efficacy for the public benefit. Another failure on the Corn Ex change was announced to-day, that of Messrs. Rich mond and Varr, who are said to have held large par eels of grain in expectation of the market being in no manner adected by the revision which was made in the regulation of the duties. Their liabilities, ac cording to the •p;ossip of the market, are 50,000/. to 60,0001., and some even speak of them as being above that sum. Mark-lane was in the highest state of ex citement to-day, owing to this and other reported stoppages, which are not, however, yet authenticated. The absence of another large speculator from his ac customed post, gave rise to prejudicial surmises, but parties who are acquainted with his movements do not appear to apprehend any difficulty in that quarter. That both bread and butcher's meat will be much cheaper during the present year than for a long while past, is asserted unequivocally by those who are old enough to remember movements which have taken place under former alterations of the tariff; and on the ground that the effect of the present alteration having so speedily exhibited itself, and long before it was expected, the provision markets will be seized with that sort of panic which, while it may bring to the ground many whose premature speculations have been conducted on princ.ples at variance with those demonstrated when the change was first proposed, will in the end serve the interests of the general com munity by making apparent the great good effected. Nothing can more strongly prove how completely the trade in Port wine is paralyzed by the expectation of a reduction of duty than the fact, that on the 22d inst.,not a gallon of Port wine was paid duty upon in the port of London—a circumstance without paralel in the annals of the trade. SUN.—The prices of the Funds exhibited a further improvement at the close of the market than at three o'clock. The causes then assigned will be sufficient to account for this ' • and although some disappoint ment may arise from the absence of internal business, which causes such an abundance of money, yet the absence of speculation in foreign bonds will afford a counterpoise. If the money be required for any special purpose it is here, and can be easily obtained without creating any considerable alteration in the prices of the stocks. Consols left off at 921 for Money, and 928 for the Account ; Bank Stock, 167 169 ; India Stock, 251 252 ; Exchequer Bills, Old, 51 53 ; New, 49 51 prem.

Now that the gratifying intelligence has gone forth to the world that the political differences between b England and the United States are on the eve of a • satisfactory and final adjustment, the attention of com mercial men begins to be directed to the condition of business relations with our Transatlantic brethren. The apparent indifference with which a number of the States of the Union advocate a scheme of S tate bankruptcy, has, for some years past exercised a most pernicious effect upon the credit, not only of the States concerned, but I of the Federal Government. Were the physical re ' sources of these States wholly exhausted—were they densely crowded with a pauper population, over-bur dened with taxes to defray the interest of debts con tracted to carry on ruinous wars—had they no means of establishing a credit in the mo ney-markets of the world, their repudiation of the payment of debts fairly contracted by them ' might excite regret, but could incur no very severe censure. But when nothing is heard in Europe louder than the boasting of these States of their in exhaustible mines of wealth—of their waste lands to be appropriated—their timber to be sold—their mines , to be worked—and their rich soils to be cultivated, the moral sense is shocked by the bare-faced im morality implied in the repudiation policy, or rather proposed bankruptcy, of these States. Nor is the folly of such a scheme less monstrous. than its dis honesty. America is yet but a new country. Her debts altogether are but mere trifles when contrasted with her immense means of defraying them. Would she, then, to get rid of them, affix upon her forehead in burning characters the brand of a swindler ? Would she have her sons pointed out in Europe as the inhabitants of States too dishonest to pay their just debts ? The Americans are a sensitive people, and they may rest assured that upon no point can they expose themselves to more ridicule in Europe than that of their being wanting in the discharge of their pecuniary obligations. No blame is at present attached to the members of the Federal Government for errors which it is felt they have no power to correct. But the progress of affairs for the last few years has convinced the most liberal men in this country that an extensive reform is required in the Constitution of the United States. It is clear that the Executive wants power to conduct with dignity and effect nearly all questions of international policy. This was painfully ap parent in the case of 3PLEoils trial, the Boundary question, and the affair of the Creole. There is a feeling springing up in Europe that it is no longer safe, in any matter which may affect the in terests of individual States, to accept the pledges of the Federal Government. The Executive has no power to coerce refractory States, who may at any moment plunge the Union into all the horrors of an unjust, unnecessary war. This evil will be a thousand times more felt now than it could have been before the discoery was made that we may safely traverse the Atlantic by steam. America is now our near neighbour. We can partake of her hospitality on her own shores, and resume our desks in Threadneedle-street, in a shorter time than it would have taken us, thirty or forty years ago, to make a pilgrimage from London to old Melrose Abbey. The intercourse between America and England is also so constant and- so regular, that we insensibly become mixed up with every great movement by which she is agitated. Her journals find as enthusiastic readers in London as in New York; and in proportion as she is brought within the range of our sympathies, are we affected by the blemishes which we discover in her Constitution. No doubt the action and re-action in this way is mu tual, and that to the nearer approximation of America to us by means of steam navigation, ought we indi- , rectly to attribute one cause of the rapidly increasing • spread Chartism. His Holiness Pope GREGORY XVI. addressed an allocution to the Sacred College on the 22d ult , set ting forth the persecution of the Roman Catholic Church in Russia and Poland, under the' government of the Emperor NICHOLAS. As the Russian Govern ment refused to allow any Papal Bull to be pub lished within the Imperial dominions, the seeming silence of the Holy See attracted attention, and it is to acquit himself of all remissness, that the POPE ad dresses the Sacred College, enclosing the Members copies of the several pastoral letters sent to the Ca tholic clergy in Russia .and Poland. The following extract from the- late allocution includes all that it contains of interest. The papers to which the POPE refers have not yet been made public : Venerable Brethren,—We have already communicated to you from this very place the grief which has so long afflicted our mind on account of the deplorable state of the Catholic Church in the Russian empire. It has happened, to our legitimate grief, that as the measures which we have unceasingly adopted for the security of the Catholic Church within the bounds of the Russian dominions have received no publicity in those regions, a rumour has been fraudulently propagated by the here , ditary foes of the Holy See amongst a very great mum bar of the faithful in those parts, that we, unmindful of the most sacred of our duties, have silently passed over the great calamities of those faithful, and have there fora almost deserted the cause of the Catholic religion. The affair has reached to such a point, that we should become, as it were, a stone of offence and a rock of scandal, not only to a very large portion of the Lord's flock over which we have been placed by Divine ordi nance, but also to the whole Church which has been founded upon him, as upon a firm rock, whose venerable dignity has been extended to us his successor. Und er those circumstances, our duty to God, to religion, and ourselves, demands that we should repel far from us even the suspicion of so unworthy a fault. We have accordingly ordered a complete account of all that we have done in the before-mentioned empire for the Ca tholic Churcl: ;v t rs o ot bhteah that tw a ctelheaepreu‘%b,hilnioc.l,enb nob e rs ig ei 1 81 t an r n a n s o m gr n t nt ourl at3o of discover c e l ac ea h rl) apostolical duties. There is no news of any interest in the French Journals. The Coratitulionnel has a long article on the disturbances in the English manufacturing dis tricts, in which our -- operatives are blamed for not habituating themselves to starvation, as do artisans in that greatest of countries—la belle France. PARIS, 'Auc. 25.—The Moniteur of this morning has, in its official part only, a note from Neuilly of the 24th, stating that the Ambassadors of Austria, Portugal, and Baden, had had private audiences of the King, to pre sent the answers of their respective Sovereigns to the notification of the death of the Duke of Orleans—Con stitutionnd. A Berlin letter of the 18th states, in the Wartzburg Gazette, that the Prince Roval of Prinsia, whilst inspect ing the troops on the nth, .had a fall from his horse, but received no injury. The same letter mentions a report that accounts had been received in Berlin of the death of the Russian Minister of Finance, by a pistol shot, from the hands of an officer, for whom he had refused to pre sent a petition to the Emperor.—Galignanes Messenger. Everybody is struck with the idea that the present Chamber of Deputies cannot last. The Emancipateur of Cambrai has the following lines :—" The period of the dissolution is not so distant as might be supposed ; for any minority is formidable when it rests upon truth and the national policy ; and let it not be forgOtten, it is a minority of 94 votes that threatens the Guizot Xinistry, which is expiring, or the Thiers Ministry, which is coming into existence. Neither the one nor the other has sufficient strength tobrave such a minority, supported by public opinion. Let us then expect a speedy dissolution of the Chamber, and let us prepare to combat with as little disadvantage as possible on the unfavourable ground on which monopoly plates i; us."—Gazette de France. ' On Monday the Minister of War informed Aischa and Mahommed, the wife and son of the Arab chief El Flamelaoui, that the King had been pleased to remit the imprisonment of this old man, who was condemned bf the Council of War of Constantina, for a letter written' by him to Abd-el-Kader, suspected of being treasonable. Until then, Flamelaoui had been remarkable for his fide lity, and had even received the cross, at the request of the Duke of Orleans, for his conduct during the expedi tion of the Portes de Fer. It was the Queen, says the Debots, whose kind offices are never implored in vain r who, on this occasion, interceded with his Majesty for the unfortunate Arab chief. The Toulon journals of the 21st give accounts of the squadron of Admiral Hugon up to the 15th. It had been at anchor at Ajaccio, in Corsica, for two dila. Its further destination was not known. The Belle Poule left Toulon on ►he 20th, to go to Brest. • A private letter from Algiers, of the 15th, published in the Toulonnais, says, "The Governor-General has just arrived here. He has visited the plain of StavuPlir Maheltna,. Blidah, and Medeah, by the road of La , Chilfa. He appears to be much pleased with his tour." —Commerce. BOURSE—PArus, THURSDAY, AUG. 25.

THE STADE DUTIEs.--A document on the subject of the Stude duties has been published, prepared, We believe, by M. de Falck, a member of the Privy Council of King Ernest, and intended to defend the claims of the King of Hanover to the right of exacting the Stade 'At tics. The English Government has, it is understood, - consented, under all the peculiar circumstances attending this cue, to recognize an ad valorem Stade duty of one eighth per cent., instead of the one-sixteenth per cent. sti pulated ibr in the treaty of the year 1691 between Sweden, to which pea er Stade then belonged, and Hamburgh. The peculiar and delicate position of Hanover in the commercial policy of Germany—a de site not to add to the many inducements for that king dom to join the Zoll Verein, and the obvious useful ness there is to England in a strict friendship with Ila -Hover as a counter agency to that League, have doubtless had their due weight in inducing the British Government to accept these terms. Besides, it must not be overlooked that the concessions which Hanover granted to England in 17:36 are revocable, and that pressure on the "limo verian Government for reduction to the letter of the treaty of 1691 might have produced a revocation of those concessions. At all events, the reduction granted and accepted will be a great relief to British shipping in the Elbe, and is to be regarded as a proof of the perfectly good understanding which exists between England and Hanover. —Morning 'Herat. CovENT-GARDEN.—It is understood in the thea trical world that Mr. Vandenhoff and his accomplished daughter are to strengthen the Covent-garden company in the approaching season, and that a new drama, from the pen of the gentleman who was the successful author of T he Provost of Bruges, is in preparation. SEDITION. Alexander llutchinson was then brought up for final examination on a charge of conspiracy, and issuing a seditious placard. The facts of the case were briefly these :—Hutchin son, who is a respectable mechanic, in the employ of Sharp, Roberts, and Co., has acted as chairman of the Delegates' meetings, which have been held lately in various parts of the town, and frc - - which various in flammatory placards have emanated, amongst which was one containing a resolution adopted by the meet ing, and addressed " T o th e T ra d es. " After examination Mr. Foster said he should com mit the prisoner ; but would allow him to be liberated on bail. MINGHAM CHARTIST. BIRMINGHAM, Friday Evening. This morning, about ten o'clock, George White, the Birmingham Chartist, against whom a warrant had been in the hands of the police for some days past, was apprehended under the following circum stances : Inspector Hale was proceeding along Hurst-street, when he accidentally saw White com• ing out of the Fox public-house. The officer imme diately accosted him, stating that he had a warrant for his apprehension, and took him into custody. He was cited before the town Magistrates at one o'clock to-day, and after his trial, and the examination of wit • nesses, the Magistrates, after duly weighing the evi dence, were of opinion that they ought to commit the prisoner for inditing and publishing seditious pla cards, and also for uttering language calculated to en danger the public peace. They had some doubt whe ther the language proved against him did not amount to treason. They-therefore committed him to take his trial at the borough Sessions. They should re quire sureties, himself in 2001., and two bondsmen in 1001. each, with 48 hours' notice of the bail offered. BIRMINGHAM, Friday Evening, 9 P.M. O'Neill was arrested near Dudley to-day, and com mitted to Worcester. LEICESTER, Friday. ARREST OF COOPER, THE LEICESTER CHARTIST. Yesterday morning, Superintendent Cotterill, of the Newcastle-under-Line police, and Superintendent Rhodes of the Handley police, arrived at Leicester by the 9 40 p.m. train, with a warrant for the appre hension of Thomas Cooper, the leader of the Leicester Chartists, on a charge of using seditious language, and exciting the mob to acts of violence. The warrant having been backed by the _Borough Magistrates, Sergeant Wright, of the town police, accompanied by Francis Smith, police constable, proceeded to execute it. Upon arriving at the shop occupied by Cooper, as a place for vending the publications issued by the body of which he is a member, and also as a "coffee room" for the assembling of parties connected with the Chartists, he looked at the publications displayed in the window; When Cooper, looking over the blind, said—" Sergeant Wright, I don't want you here; you have no business with these papers, so move on." Wright went on a short distance, when he beckoned to Smith, with whom he entered the shop, and after reading over the warrant, took Cooper into custody. After hearing the charge against him, he said to his with—" Pm done now, my wench," kissed her, and after telling several of the by-standers that he was " going to gaol," proceeded, handcuffed to Sergeant Wright, to the station-house. During the lime our reporter was at the station house Cooper communicated the following particulars of his " lith," which we give in the first person singu lar :—" I was apprenticed at Scarborough, in Lin colnshire, to a cordwainer, and over the last' (an instrument used in the business) learnt myself five different languages. After leaving Scarborough, I became master of a school at Lincoln, and it was at that rlace I formed my connection with the Press. A lecture was delivered upon an interesting subject, a report of which I furnished to the Stamford Mercury. After this, Mr. Newcombe, the proprietor, entered into arrangements that led to my engaging with him as reporter at a salary, with perquisites, amounting to nearly 3001. a year. I remained in this situation about 44 years, after which I went to London, where I remained about 17 months, employing myself by supplying articles to various periodicals and news papers, and also acting as transcriber at the British Museum. I-subsequently became editor of the Green wich Gazette, but my ideas being too liberal, I left it, and engaged as reporter to the Leicester Mercury, which situation I vacated in a few months, and shortly afterwards took the lead amongst the Chartists, whose rights I will advocate even if it lead me to the scaffold." MERTHYR, Tuesday Night. The political horizon has cleared here to-day. Two thirds of the men employed under ground at Cy, farthfa have returned to their occupation. As stated before, few in the other iron works were affected with the Chartist spirit. Three were dismissed from Pen y Darran works this morning for absenting themselves yesterday. One of them has a wife and four young children ; another fireman was discharged from Cy farthfa for taking a letter, he said he found, round the works. Many more, it is said are on the black list. John Evans, Esq., the manager of Sir John Guest's works, gave 151. worth of beer last night to three lodges of Odd Fellows, for not joining in the presen delusion. A Chartist meeting was held at Aberdare-hill this afternoon, and another at a room in town, when it was decided to go to work to-morrow. This has had a beneficial effect on the inhabitants in general, and confidence will, we presume, be shortlyrestored. It is more than probable that many will be deterred from working at present, if not for ever, here. WEDNESDAY MORNlNG.—Merthyr be?ins to wear its work-like appearance once more. The punishing of the Chartists by the Magistrates will be the next topic. POLICE COURT, MERTHYR—FRIDAY, AUG. 19. Magistrates present, G. R. Morgan, and R. Pother gill, Esqrs., and Rev. C.
