TAMES ANDERSON, Proprietor and Occupier of "ANDERSON'S HOTEL." Nairn, takes leave to an nounce that these large and commodious premises have very re eently undergone various important improvements and altera tions, by which such additional accommodation has been obtained. as to render the establishment amply suited for the comfortable reception of the increasing number of visitors to the North. The Hotel contains several Public and Sitting Rooms, nu merous Bed-rooms—all newly and tastefully painted and pa pered, fitted up with gas, and otherwise arranged in a comfort.. able and handsome manner. Attached to the Hotel are excel lent Stables, also fitted up with gas, to which considerable ad ditions have lately been made, with lock-up Coach-houses. J. A. having spared no expense in rendering the comforts at tendant on a residence in the Hotel worthy of public patronage, is happy to say that the House is frequented by some of the best families from all parts of the country, i 3 well known to many Noblemen and Gentlemen visiting the North, and is also pa tronised by all Commercial Gentlemen who travel on the road. In the Posting Department, Chaises and Gigs are always to be had on the shortest notice. The town of Nairn, at all times possessing advantages as a watering place, has now become more celebrated as such, on account of its SALT-WATER BATHS. This establishment, affording Cold, Tepid, Warm, and Shower Sea-water Bathing, is univetsaily allowed to be un equalled in the North of Scotland. The salubrity of the climate is remarkable—and the town and surrounding country particularly agreeable. Mail and stage coaches from Aberdeen and Inverness arrive and depart daily. Various interest ing objects, such as Fort George, Cawdor Castle, and Culloden Muir, are within short distances of the town, and the district is most inviting to those engaged in Gealogical and other scientific pursuits. In short, to Invalids, Families, or Tourists desirous of spending some time on the sea-coast, Nairn, provided as it is with an Hotel and Baths of the above descrip tion, will be found to possess advantages not to be surpassed in the northern section 'of the kingdom.

Herr Dobler, the magician, took his farewell on Monday at this theatre, but net in the manlier of ordinary mortals, with set speech and rhetorical display, enunciated by the lips. Herr Dobler bade farewell in his own characteristic way. A single pistol was iu his hand—he snapred it —and forthwith there tell a shower of farewells in type from the ceiling of the theatre, flickering and falling on the heads of all present. The tyl•e and paper, however, with the words of the " Lebew•obl" or farewell, written in fair- writ german lines,was the least surprising portion of the feat, for the paper had but to be held up against the light, and flowers, all elegantly bound together, were to be seen, lying within the surface of the material. This was alluded to in the translated words, which fot mad part of the lare‘vell : With sorrow deep my heart must view The parting which this night must bring; And even a tear may gem, like dew, The latest " floral gifts " I fling. My hand this charmed verse has traced, Tis what my heart must tong contain ; Prayer—in your memories to be placed, And hope—that we may meet again The house was crowded, and at the end the Herr was summoned forward to receive the honoar due to his successful campaign with the applause of all present. Amongst the company whom we observed were—His Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge, their Royal Hignesses the Duchess and Princess Augusta of Cambridge. the Duchess of Buecleuch, Lady Jersey, and Lady Clementina Villiers, &c., &c. ROWINu MATCHES. THE LAMBETH, CHELSEA, AND BANKSIDE RFC ATTAS.— The Thames, on Monday, from London-bridge to Chelsea, was one continued scene of animation and bustle, of excitement and struggle, occasioned by three regattas, so arranged as to afford a diversity of sport for the extent of five miles. The unusual fineness of the weather drew to each a larger assemblage of persons than we ever remembe► - to have met with at any similar wagers. The match at Chelsea was the most attractive, the various steam-boats during the day landing some thousand persons. It is some years since a wager took place here amongst the watermen, but a subscription was got up this season by some of the most respectable inhabitants of St. Luke's, to be rowed for by sixteen free watermen (eight pair of oars) in three heats. The two first pairs of the first, and two first pairs of the second were entitled, according to the condition, to row in the grand heat, and the list of competitors comprised the fol lowing : FIRST HEAT.—Edward Atkins and George Brown, blue; James Thomas and \Villiam Woodford, yellow; James Wight and William Wright, orange ; and Thomas Southam and Thomas 'Woodford, pink. SECOND BEAT.— Thomas Chittle and Edward Coates, green ; James Woodford and Richard Bruce. scarlet ; Thomas Coates and Joseph Cole, white; and John Thomas and William Cole, black. The distance in the two first heats was from the Swan up to the half-mile post, Chelsea, down the Middlesex shore, round the White Ferry-boat, and back to the Swan ; and in the last heat from buoys moored facing the cricketers, round a boat facing the ferry-house, up to the half-mile post, and finish facing the Magpie, in Cheyne-walk. After two well-contested heats, at a little before seven, black, white, blue, and yellow, started for the grand heat. Yellow took the lead, but held it only a short distance, when black went into the first place ; and after a trifling foul against tide, yellow gave place to blue. Black held the lead, and won by half a dozen lengths ; and after a very severe contest be tween blue and yellow, in which it was diflieult to determine which were the better men, blue came in second, and yellow third, white being fourth. The Lambeth regatta was amongst men who have acquired much celebrity as wagermen. It was their twenty-second an nual match in two heats, with six pairs of oars, for a purse of sovereigns, subscribed by the inhabitants of St. Mary's, Lam beth. The competitors were—William Wilson and William Rolls, white ; Richard Wilson and George Maynard, blue ; George Wild and George Wilton, pink; Edward Perry and Lewis Richards, green; John Maynard and Henry Maynard, yellow ; and Charles Maynard and Henry Shelton, scarlet. Ile whole six started in the first heat from Westminster.. bridge, up round a boat moored off Sir Robert Burnett's, down to Hungerford, and back to Lambeth. Scarlet took the lead and kept it with apparent ease, winning the heat. Yellow came in second, green third, and blue fourth. These were entitled to row in the grand heat, and at seven o'clock they went away from 'Vauxhall-bridge down to Hunger ford, up to Sir Robert Burnett's, and back to Lambeth-stairs. This heat varied but little from the first. Scarlet took the lead, kept it, and won in style; yellow was second, but blue came in third, after a good pull with green. The Bankside wager was a double scullers one—the first time we remember it to have been so at these stairs, and there were men who had won the coat mad badge and had otherwise distinguished themselves engaged in it. The contest was with twelve pair of sculls (two pairs in each boat), three beats, the distance being the game in all the beats. The first heat was composed of Joseph Harris and Thomas Harrison, purple; James Weed and P. Morton. yellow ; and G. Allen and \V. Neville, red; and the second of John Harris arid John Har rison, pink ; B. Kelly and C. Lipscombe, blue ; and Win. Weed and John Moore, green. The first heat was won by yellow and purple, and the second dy pink and green, and these four boats were started at about a quarter past seven for the grand heat, to row from Blackfriars-bridge down, round a boat facing Plicenix Wharf, up round Horne's-road, the distance being performed again, and finishing at Thames-street-stairs. It was a pretty start in the grasid heat ; they were scull and scull for a few yards, and then yellow drew ahead ; pink, who was on her quarter, bumped the boat in rounding, but,yellow held their own, and won by half a length only, after every sharp struggle ; pink second, purple third. The race was for a boat, and good money prizes. GREAT BOAT-RACE BETWEEN THE QUEEN'S SCHOLARS AT WESTMINSTER ANP THE ETONIANS.—It has seldom fallen to our lot to record a more animated or interesting struggle than that of yesterday between the scholars of Westtninster and Eton, a struggle recommended by its display of stamina and science. This was the first match near London within our knowledge between the Westminsters and the Etonians ; in deed they have not been opposed to each other in aquatics fsr some years. Their last contest was in 1837, at Datehet, when victory was declared in favour of Westminster. From that period to the present, we believe, no atteml.t has been made to get up a match between them. About a month since, by mu tual consent, they were determined to test their prowess it) the race we are now about to record. The preliminaries were no sooner arranged than either party commenced the task, and no very light one, of selecting the eight best from the body, anti by strict attention to training, placing themselves in such a condition as to dispute the honour of the day. The Etonians shifted from time to time a member or so of the company, but the Westminster did not suffer any alteration. Both parties have taken considerable practice. The Shamrock strainer lied been chartered by the INestminster scholars, anti at half-past four it left Chandler's-pier at Milbank, and proceeded with the Westminster crew up to Kew, where, having divested them selves of superfluous articles of dress, the following took their places in tine rival boats. Thei r weights were as follows : WESTMINSTER. ETON. st. lbs. St. lbs. IS. Swabey, bow 8 1 1 Stapylton 9si 2 E. C. Burton 8 7 2 Heygate ... 10 0 3 J. G. Smythe ....... 9 4 3 Mount . 4 J. Y.

Mereweather, cox.. 6 2 Pemberton, cox. lO 2 It will be seen by the above list that the Eton crew had considerably the advantage of their opponents. The colours for Westminster were pink; that of their adversaries, the same as worn by the Cantabs (light blue). The river pre sented a most animated appearance from the numter of cutters and boats of other descriptions out, while on the towing path there were a hundred well-mounted horsemen, who preferred the certainty of keeping pace with the com batants on shore, to taking the chance of doing it in a boat. On the one side of the reach of water below 'the ait at Kew was the Locomotive, which had started from Stangate with a number of the gentlemen of the Eton College on board, on the ether was the Shamrock, while in the course of the tide the Leander, the Oxford University, the Cambridge, Mr. Thynne's gig, and the boats of the celebrated aquatic clubs, lined the way. At seven preparations were made for the start. Betting was 5 and 6 to 4on Westminter ; but there was but little done at it. The signal for starting was given, at five minutes past seven o'clock, by Mr. Layton, of the Lean der Club, who had consented to be umpire, and they went away from Barker's Rails to row to Putney•bridge, a distance of five miles and a half. The start was even and beautiful ; the oars dashed in and out of the water like lightnimt. A hun dred yards succeeded a hundred yardi, and neither had the lead. They were oar and ear, or nearly so, for a quarter of a mile, and then Westminster drew gradually in advance. Off Eames-terrace the Etonians made a desperate effort for the leading place ; and, although not then above a length and a half astern, could not improve their position. The Westmin ster held the lead, and went through Hammersmith-bridge 50 yards ahead, and arrived at Putney-bridge 28 minutes 14 se conds from the time of starting, and 32 seconds, or upwards of 100 yards, ahead of the Etonians. The shouts on all sides at coming in were deafening. tlutioEttroan REGATTA:—The annual regatta for a purse of sovereigns, given, as the placards expressed it, " by the in habitants of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields," took place yesterday amongst the watermen plying at Hungerford-market. Thi s wager is invariably a tt rac ti ve from the repute of one or two of the men engaged in it, and from the facilities which the open space facing the pier, the terrace, and the taverns abutting in the market, present for witnessing it, and on this occasion the attendance did not fall short of former years. It was an oars' eager, six pairs, in three heats—the distance en the first and second heats bring from buoys moored off Hungerford.stairs, up round a boat moored off Chandler's, the Ship, at Millbank, down the Middlesex shore, round the Thames Police brig at Strand-lane, and up to Hungerford. The following were the competitors:—William Lock and George Bancroft, yellow; Francis Braithwaite and David Eld, pink ; Thomas Cook and John Becket, green; James Dodd and Thomas Moody, blue; Alexander Tough and William Diamond, white; and Thomas Worthy and James Stewart, scarlet. The two first pair in each heat were qualified to row in the gratt.l heat, and at seven o'clock blue, pink, scarlet, and green started for the last and gratd heat. Pink took the lead, followed by blue, green, and scarlet, in which order the boats came in. This heat was very prettily contested, pink winning by about six boats' length. The Emancipation of Toulouse states that the Municipal Council tf that place has decided, by a ma jority of 24 out of 28, not to address the King on the occasion of the death of the Duke of Orleans. The motive assigned was, that however disposed the Council might be to express its condolence to.the King, it could not consent to do anything which would imply adhe:.ion to the present system of Govermuctitoad that addresses to the King from Municipal Councils had on other occa sions been forbidden. The shopkeepers of Westbury' have represented to the Delegate from that place to the Anti-Corn -law Con ference that they have for souse tiine'paSt experienced a growing depression in trade. Their returns are pain fully declining. The working classes have not the means to purchase, and are unable to continue their accust ome d credit. The poor are destitute, the middling classes are seriously straitened, and unless some 'change can be effected in trade, a very painful crisis must overtake them. FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS. The inauguration of the Brussels and Liege Bail real took place on the 17th with great ceremony. At 10 in the morning a train of honour, bearing the Minister of Public Works, set out for the station of the Nord for Ans, and arrived at 2 at the highest point of the line. Here the Minister found the public functionaries, and those invited to be present from Liege. An address was delivered by one of the chief officers of the communal council on the occasion, to which the Minister replied briefly, alluding to the terrible misfortune which had prevented the King of the Belgians from being present. Ile also stated that his Majesty, desiring to recompense the services of several persons connected with the railroad, had pre sented the Order of Leopold to M. M aus , th e en gineer ; Me Borguet, the contractor; M. Lemonnier, the architect of the stations; and M. Pastor, the rnanu. facturer of the machin9s, The train then descended the inclined plane with between 1,000 and 1,100 per sons in the carriages. On its arrival at Brussels, the , several persons having quitted the carriages, placed themselves in the order determined on beforehand, and traversed the city to the lintel de Ville. An immense number of persons assembled to view the procession, and the windows were crowded with elegantly dressed women. At six o'clock the grand banquet given by the city took place, and was remarkable for its flag nitLience. Loyal toasts were proposed and responded to, and the entertainment passed over with great cor diality. The guests separated about 9 o'clock, at ' which hod the city was brilliantly illuminated. The day passed over without accident. One circumstance contributed to cast a gloom on the proceedings of the day, and that was the cause of the King's absence. A letter from Aix-la-Chapelle states that, a few days back, a Spaniard, when playing at the gaming table, in the Salle des Redontes, broke the bank, winning 130,000 francs. He set out immediately for Brussels. M. Berthault, the banker of Autun, whose estab lishmen is the only one in that town, has, according to the Patriote de Saone et Loire, called his creditors together. The debts are said to amount to several millions, and the stoppage has caused the most disas trous consequences. We learn from Brest that the second maritime tri lama], before which Vivo, Vianna, and Ripoli, under accusation of piracy in the Podia, were sent by the council of revision, upon their appeal against the judgment which, as we have stated, condemned them to close confinement, has again declared them guilty, and sentenced them all three to hard labour at the hulks for life. They have, however, lodged another appeal. The St. halo races, which were to have taken place in August, have been put off till the Bth and 9th of September. They are expected to be very brilliant, as several plates are to be run for. We find the following in the Courrier de Lyon : " There are in France a number of astronomers— great men in their own little circles—who deny alto gether the science of M. Arago. Of this number is a certain Godard, of Vienne, who has caused a letter to be inserted in the journal of his locality, declaring that the eclipse of the Bth will not be visible either in France, Spain, Savoy, or The eclipse (says M. Godard) will take place on the meridian of Pekin, on the 20th deg. of the equator. This meridian is 3,000 leagues from Paris, and the earth remains fixed. The circle which the sun runs through in 24 hours is 150,000 leagues of circumference. The swiftness of the sun is 625 leagues an hour."f his precious docu ment is regularly signed with the mighty name of • Godard, the man of science of Isere.' But Isere is not the only district so highly favoured : 'lons has also her philosopher, denying loudly and asserting boldly. Ile has formally stated his theory, and declares that the earth is a sponge which rises and falls each day above and below the sun, thereby causing night and day. Eclipses, he holds in sovereign contempt, very perti nently inquiring how it is possible to have any since the stars are fixed. Should any one presume to ques his views on the subj ec t, h e has a ready and tri umphant answer. He says, 'how can it be otherwise when 1 have distinctly stated the facts in my book on the formation of the world ?' It must not be forgot ten that the philosopher of the Rhone declares that the earth breathes like an elephant, its nostrils being volcanoes !" A man and two women were arrested a few days ago at the fair of Quinzcy, for practising the swindle al' Americaine. The band consisted originally of two men and two women, but one of the former escaped when the gendarmes were on their trace. One was dressed in black, with a long beard of the same colour, and the other was in the attire of a grazier. They ac. costed in the fair a farmer, named Vernier, and offered to change gold pieces of 40f. for 524 f., which they saw him receive, agreeing to allow him a large profit on each piece exchanged. The ' farmer received two gold pieces, which he went out and got tested. Finding them good, he returned and gave the rest of the money for two rouleans, which it is unnecessary to say consisted of copper money, The cheat was, however, soon discovered, and the gendarmes were sent after them. One of the men and the two women were discovered in a Cabaret off the main -road, having with them a cabriolet and two trunks, filled with disguises, wigs, picklocks, a saw, and other objects used by such adventurers. The fourth person is still at large. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORFOLK ClRCUlT—Norwich, July 25. These assizes commenced to-day at ten o'clock, with ten causes, of which three were special jury causes, and a calendar containing 53 prisoners. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS. ) Letitia Broom, aged 23, was charged with having stolen the sum of 301. from the per son o f one J o h n N ea l e , of Edge-field. Mr. O'Malley was Counsel for the prosecution; and Mr. Palmer for the prisoner. It appeared that the prosecutor, who is a cattle dealer, re paired from his home to Reepham fair on the ith of this month, for the purpose of selling an old horse. Having accomplished this job for the small sum of 2/. 25., the prosecutor found time rather heavy on his hands, as he intended to proceed on the fol!owing day to Dereham market to make large purchases. In order to dispose of the superfluous hours he wandered into the fair, where meeting with some friends he adjourned to a booth. Leaving this, he again tried the fair, and for four mortal hours he gazed at some " London show, where there were plenty of Andrews." While so engaged night drew on apace, and about half-past ten o'clock at night a " female with a black eye and a well over her bonnet " came up to him and with out so much as "by your leave, or with your leave," she flung her arms round his neck and saluted him as an old friend. Staggered at the warmth of the greeting, the prosecutor drew his right baud from his breeches pocket in which was his purse, and put her away from him. At that instant the fair one slipped her hand into the unguarded pouch and extracted its precious contents, with which she made off as fast as possible, in com pany with two men, who were seen by other witnesses to be in the fair with her both before and after the robbery. On the following morning, at half-past six o'clock, the prisoner and her two companions, foot-sore and fatigued, made their appear ance at Wymondliam, a distance of nearly eighteen miles from Iteephatn, when she was observed to have in her possession a quantity of sovereigns. The robbery being noised abroad, the party was traced further on the road, and ultimately taken up and committed to take their trial ; but no money was then found on either of them. The Grand Jury, however, ignored the bill against the two men, and the case was now gone into as against the woman alone. Mr. PALMER, having addressed the Jury, 'The Learned JUDGE left it to them to say whether the pro secutor was mistaken when he swore, as he did must stoutly, to his knowledge of the prisoner's person. Guilty—Nine months' imprisonment. WESTERN CIRCUIT—Exeter, July 25. CROWN COURT.--(Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL. William Lazarus and Philip Ewings were indicted for breaking and entering the house of the Rev. W. Timothy Napleton, at Stoke Canon, in this city, and stealing therefrom a quantity of plate. The only fact in this case at all of public interest is, that no evidence could be given in what way the prisoners had entered the house. The prosecutor's two servants proved the locking up the house at night, and that a back door leading into the garden was found open in the morning when the robbery was discovered. This door had been bolted, and the witnesses stated that it was impossible it could have been opened on the outside. The prisoners, therefore, must have secreted them selves in the day-time in the house, er they must have had an accomplice there. Froin the failure of evidence as to the mode of their entrance, and as there was no second count charging them with breaking out of the house, they were acquitted of the burglary, but found Guilty of stealing from the dwelling-house. Though only 21 and 16 years of age, there were three other indictments against them. Sentence was therefore deferred. WITNESSES TO TILE CHARACTER OF A PRISONER.—In the course of this day, after a prisoner had been convicted, her counsel on her behalf tendered to the Learned Judge a certifi cate of her previous good character. His LORDSHIP refused to receive it, and sail, 4 , I shall always r e f use a certificate of this sort. If any one kno ws enough of a p r i soner to t hi nk it proper that he s h ou ld receive a good charact er , i t i s a pu b l i c duty that suc h person should come forward and state it in open Court. rience on the Bench I have remarked with great pain the man prisoners tier in which even respectable people venturetove sentence is passed in consequence, a character, and that too on theiroath.

This discovery appears fully to justify the conjectures of Stukeley and other antiquaries, that the. great battle between the Britons under Boadicea, and the Romans under Suetonius Paulinus, took place at this spot. Faithful tradition, in the absence of all decisive evidence, still pointed to the place by the appellation of Battle-bridge. The inscription, which, in parts, is much obliterated, bears distinctly the letters LEG. XX. The writer of this notice, has not yet had an opportunity personally to examine it, but speaks from the informatics of an antiquarian friend. The twentieth legion, it is well known, was one of the four which came into Britain in the reign of Claudius, and contributed to its subju gation. The vexillation of this legion was in the army of Suetonius Paulinns when he made that vic torious stand in a fortified pass, with a forest in his rear, against the in,,urgent . Britons.- The position is sketched by Tacitus ; and antiquaries well know that on the high ground above Battle-bridge there are ves tiges of Roman works, and that the tract of laud to the north was formerly a forest. The veracity of the to lowing passage of the historian is therdwe fully confirmed :—" Diligitque locum artis faucibus, et a tergo Silva clausam ; satis cognito, nihil hostium nisi in fronte, et apertam planitiem esse sine metu insi diarum." He further tells us that the force of Suetonius was composed of " quartadecima legio, cum vexilluriis vicesimards et e proxiwis auxiliares." Tacit. Annal. lib. xiv. So that, almost to the letter, the place of this memorable engagement seems, by the discovery of the above inscription, to be ascertained.—From a Correspond ent of the Literary Gazette. The harvest has commenced in the counties of Devon and Cornwall, with excellent prospects. Many fields of wheat in the immediate neighbourhood of these towns have been saved, and if the weather continues fine as at present, of which there is every prospect, the sickle will be in general use in the course of next week. It is the generally received opinion, that finer wheat has not been seen for many years.—Plyntouth Herald. THE lIARVEST.—The weather is auspicious, and to day the first fruits of the harvest in this neighbourhood will be reaped in a field near Bideford. We are rejoiced to say that the result of subsequent inquiries confirms the encouraging statement in our last, viz., that the wheat harvest, if not abundant, will produce an average crop ; and it is gratifying to add that the general opinion, ex pressed from all quarters at the late meeting at Bristol, was, that the crops would not be so much below an ave rage through the country, as was feared a few months ago, the filling of the ear being particularly good.— North Devon Journal.

The eo f theo.l i,th .. men off duty of the Royal Horse Artillery were assembled on the grand mounting parade at a quarter before 9 o' c l oc k on Saturday molting last to witness the degradation of gunner lloyd, who was found guilty by a Court- martial of embezzling his officer's (Lieutenant De Winton's) money, and afterwards deserting from the service. After having the letter " El" publicly im pressed on his person, in presence of the troops, agreeeably to the recent regulations, he was escorted to the Penitentiary, where he willbe confined 12 months, in terms of his sentence. The weather, since our last, has been all that could be desired. There has been almost an uninterrupted sunshine, with a high temperature, and not a drop of rain. The crops of all kinds, and in all localities, have accordingly progress6d most favourably. —Ross Ad vertiser, - - On Saturday evening, about eight o ' c l oc k , a man 60 years of age, went up to the parapet of the Arc de Triomphe, and after crying out several times to the persons below, " gare, gare," precipitated himself from this great height, and was killed instantaneously, ~~~—:/. ~ ii ~ ~t~,~ _ ~a~~t~-~~ MEIETING 1 - nn wirm TrtADN Yeeterthvy a eery numerous and high iatioutto, meeting of the Importers and 'Wine-Merchants of Lon don, took place at the Corn mercia Sale-reoms.

Among those present were Messrs. Martinez, Greenwood. Hefty. Car bot el, Gasseott, and several wine and spirit-brokers, and 1111-11 ] hers of the retail trade. Gtonce BARNES, Esq., Chairman or the Wine and Spirit Association, presided. Ile observed, that it hating been intimated by the Government in Parliament that the combined effects of the turitF and treaty with Por tugal would probably he a reduction of duty on foreign wines, the Committee of the Association had consulted together, and sent a memorial to the -Board of Trade, praying an allowance of drawback on the stock -of' wine in hand ; but, having received an unfavourable reply, this meeting had been called to consider the- best course to be adopted. The memorial was then read, and the foilowing ri ply as received from Sir George Clerk : " Treasury Chambers, June- Gentlemen,—Having laid be!;n-e the Lord Com missioners of her Mejslsty's. Treasury your petition, pray ing en allowance of drawback on your stock of wines, lb the event of a reduction of duty, .1 am commanded to ac quaint you, in the event of increase or reduction of Cus tom duties, it is not the practice tit impose, e n ' to matte return of ditty, on ac nunt of the stock in •tuner, " I um, Gentlemen, your vbetlirnt.z4vreot, " Cifiiiih," o To the Committee of ,Itontivrs (,1 1 the Wine. Spirit Trade, G lnn.. fields, Esq,, Chair. man, (11, Lincoln's CAVIIOnEL, in a speech of eonsidcrahle length, said that the desire of the wine trade to oluttin a return of the duty on the stock In hand, particularly Of bottled wine, in the event of a reduction or ditty, wits rounded on a principle of justice and fair dealing, and which he could not believe the Government would eventually- re fuse, so as to prevent that good understanding which ought ever to subsist between Government mud the emu menial world, lie concluded by moving a resolution to the ef&et---" That it was necessary merchants should have a large capital invested in bottled wines, particu larly in Portugal red , wine, in order to bring theta to maturity ; and to refuse allowing the drawback would be an act of gross injustice." Mr. WILD, in seconding the resolution, observed that the Government had asserted no parallel could be found; why, tOrmerly Mr. Pitt had returned one pound a tun, and when toia he was sacrificing, said " a surrender of ' revenue fin- commercial purpose was the wisest and hest policy a Government could pursue." The fairness of the proposition was then so apparent, that it was unani mously carried.in the House of Comm ms. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. I. WALTER gave a history front 1787 of the prac tice which had been pursued when the duty 'on wine was increased or reduced; and also c f the periods when it was a custom and when an excise duty. Ile further ob served, that they were entitled to demand a return of duty, as when the Government chose to make an altera tion they were bound to act in good faith.—(Hear, hear.) He was happy to see so large a meeting present ; it showed that when their pockets were in danger they would throw off their usual apathy.--(Cheers and laugh ter.) Let a deputation be appointed from- every town in England, and let a day be fixed when they might all go in a body and assail the Minister in his nest.—(Cheers.) In conclusio n he moved a resolution to the eifect—" That since 1787 it had been the - practice to charge or allow, when any material alteration of duty took place." This was :ieconded by Mr. JAMES ARBOUIN, and car ried unanimously. • Mr. DAY moved the third resolution—" That under this practice the public has immediately received the full benefit of any reduction made in the duties; and an ex pectation of the same benefit will still exist, although, if disallowed by the Government, it can only be gratified by the sacrifice on the part of the merchants of the duty so reduced." Mr. COATES (of Whiteehapel) moved as an amend ment, that the words "If disallowed by the Government, it can only be gratified by the sacrifice on the part of eke merchants, &c.," be struck out. This having been put and negatived, the original reso lution was put and carried by an immense majority. Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting, from whose statements it npf eared that duty had been charged on stock on five occasions of increase, and allowed on hair of decrease. Seven or tight other resolutions were put and carried, having for their object a petition to the Legislature, and a request that it might be supported by the City and other Members ; that a subscription should be • imme diately entered into, to defray the necessary expenses (which was liberally responded to).—A vote or thanks having been awarded to the chairman, the meeting broke up. MEETING AT DEPTFORD. DISTURBANCES, AND APPREHENSION OF DR. NI 4 DO WALL AND SEVERA 1., CHARTIST LEADERS. Last night a large assemblage of persons took place at the Meeting-house, High-street, Deptford, which had been granted by the Rev. Mr. Pullen, for the alleged purpose of George Thompson, Esq., deliverii)g a lecture on existing distress of the country.. The Lecturer failed to attend, considerable confusion took place in the meeting, the police were sent for, and after some trilling disturbance the meeting was dissolved. Some of the persons %vim composed it then proposed an. adjournment to the - Broadway, which was • agreed to.. Hundreds who had been unable to gain admittance followed to the Broadway, and in a few minutes the large open space was.filled, and shortly after the highway was blocked up. The pump in the centre afforded an excellent ros trum. Dr. APflowall having :-tended to harangue the multitude, was loudly an d ve h ement l y cheered. The. address was, however, cut s h o rt by th e ar riv a l o f Al r ; Superintendent Mallalieu and a number of the force. The meeting was ordered to disperse, whiCh order was met with determined opposition, upon which orders were given to clear, and Dr. Af'Dowall was pulled down from the pump, and several of the Chartist leaders were nt'cen in . 2ustody to the station-house, the police being assailed by yells and groans. When our report left the town was in a great state of excitement. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is Si per mine, which, at the English Mint price of 17s. 10id. - per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 36L, and tie exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 474, , it follows that gold is 0.44 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from lia►nburgh the price of gold is 4311 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101(. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchaege of 13 81, and the exchange at llamburgh on London at short being 13 10, it follows that gold is 0.80 per cent. dearer in London than in liamburgh. By the official returns published by the Customs the export of the precious metals to foreign and colonial parts for the week ending Thursday last, was as under:— OaLee:. 875 4,000 39,000 Silver coin to Ceylon Silver bars to Hatnburgit Silver coin to Mauritius The report mentioned in the Times the other day, that the West India Steam Packet Company design to have one packet per month instead of two, now obtains rreral c e 'enee, and has created much excitement among the merchants, who are resolve f to use every efliwt to prevent the object from being accomplished. The new Mexican tariff, a copy of which has lately been received, contains some items which promise to be of material benefit to the manufactures of this country, and show the decided steps towards more liberal com mercial views which have been taken by Santa Anna. The descriptions of linens which formerly paid 14 cents. the square yard are now reduced to 11, while others which paid 12 are reduced to 9 and 10. Stockings for adults of all descriptions have undergone the reduction to one dollar 25 cents. the dozen, from two dollars 25 cents., while handkerchiefs, which used to pay 121 cents. a piece, arc reduced respectively to 6 and 10 cents., ac cordingly as they are dyed or not. These facts, it is to be hoped, 1611 give additional encouragement to our trade, which seems to be generally reviving. SUN.—The markets closed firmly, with Out any parti cular feature, after the hour of a quarter. to three. The certainty that no financial operation which might disturb any existing arrangement will be attempted, and the probability that no great demand for the exportation of m will arise, have doubtless contributed to this advance.
