In the House of Commons last night, before going into a Committee of Supply, Mr. THOMAS DUNCOMBE brought forward the motion, of which he had given notice, relative to the trial and incarceration of a Chartist lecturer in Staffordshire, on a charge of at- tending a seditious meeting. A report had gone abroad that were a Chartist to make his appearance in the town of Sedgeley, he would be committed to prison by order of .the Magistrates. A Mr. MASON, a Chartiat lec turer, did go there, and called a public meeting, at which many of the working classes were present. The Magis• trates were represented by a constable, whose loyalty was offended by the lecturer telling the people that those who worked the hardest were worst paid, and that they were not fairly represented in the House of Commons. Accordingly this worthy Dogberry interrupted the lecturer, by telling him that he could not stand that, and that being paid for exerting his authority, his first exercise of it would be to disperse the meeting, which he did by pulling down the form upon which the lecturer stood. He was then told that his proper course was to apply to a Magis trate, and to take a note of any objectionable words spoken ; but he knew his ground too well to giVe him self any such unnecessary trouble. MASON obtained a warrant against him, which was dismissed ; and a war rant was granted against MASON and seven others at the instance of the constable, upon which they were found guilty, and sentenced to various periods of im prisonment, ranging from two months to six. At the trial the constable was the only witness examined, and after conviction, the Chairman consulted the prosecuting constable respecting the length of the imprisonment which he would recommend in their respective cases,. In fact, it appears, from the whole trial .that it was a stretch of politeness on the part of the constable to have gone through the constitutional form of trying the: priioners .As he. was virtually witness and judge there. would have been . - no great innovation in assuming the functions 'of jury, and committing the prisoners to Stiffordshire gaol on his own authority. Sir 'JAMES GRAHAM read the House Seine curious law doctrine. He was, he said, of 'opinion that it. eonstible might interrupt and dissolVe any Public meeting, at which he heard language which in his opinion tended to a breach of the peace. The Right HOn. Home Secre tary admitted that he was not profoundly skilled in the law, and after the above exposition of his views we are well inclined to believe him. But who is to inform an ignorant, illiterate constable, or policeman what language tends to endanger the peace ? Is he to judge by the gestures of the orator, who - may be a man of fervid eloquence and animated gesture ? Is he to pre sume to judge what doctrines are suitable or unfit for the P" • • public car Do the people. Of England enjoy only by 9 the sufferance of policemen and constables the right to meet publicly to discuss their grievances, and suggest remedies for them ? If constables are to decide what is and what is not seditious language we may as well abolish trial by jury at once. But we con tend that the doctrine laid down by the Home Secretary is entirely erroneous, and that were any constable in the eoanty of Middlesex to act upon it, a London Jury would send him to the House of Correction for six months. It is the duty of constables not to interfere where no overt act has taken place violating, or decla rative of an intention to violate the peace. For the rest they can only report the proceedings, and be guided thereupon by the instructions of a Magistrate.. Sir JAMES GRAH AM and the ATTORNEY-GENERAL complained of the irregularity of bringing before the House of Commons all malversations in the Administra tion of Justice. With admirable presence of mind Lord PALMERSTON reminded them of the doctrine laid down by Judge PestsevaTurat the other day at the trial of the Etlfast Vindicator, in which it is affirmed that, if judges and juries act unjustly, the proper remedy is an appeal to Parliament. The Noble Lord, who has had as much official experience as the Knight of Netherby denounced as most dangerous the doctrine that consta bles shosld be allowed to exercise their own discretion with respect to the dispersion of meetings. Sir H. PEEL i%tale to the assistunce of his colleague, and, in common with the Law Officers of the CroWe, refused to accede to a motion which would call in question the constitutional infallibility of a Staffordshire constable. There is a :.yalpathy between beadle:; and Cabinet Ministers to which the House is rarely indifferent, and consequently the vote was lost by a large majority. Had the p a pers moved for been produced, Mr. Duscomnn might base made them the basis of a legislative enactment fir defining more clearly the duties of constables ; but Sir GRATIA M deeming them men of enlarged mind, , , :mud nut wishing to fetter them in the execution ~f aNy project to which they give the name of duty, has n notion, of restricting them in the exercise of bound less authority. We can sue very clearly the reason, of this. , The constables are the tools of the Magistrates, and rarely it' ever outstep theelimits of their authority without se,Tret instructions to that effect, and magisterin: pledges of being held harmless. The constable is to bear the blanse of acting by his own authority, and the Magis trate, as a seemingly disinterested person, is to screen him from justice. Whenever the Magistrate has a feel ing of private revenge to gratify, he has only to whispQr io the ear of the constable, and it is very soon effected. In the event of a complaint against the constable, a sham warrant is granted, a sham examination takes I ,l:tee, and the complaint is dismissed as frivolous. W e tr, , no strangers to what Justices' justice is in the agri cultural districts, or how much it would embarrass Magis trates were the Legislature to define exactly the duties of enunuy constables, and punish severely all wanton viola- . lions of them. 'Vita Government deserve every praise, not only for feh'Aving up the plan of their predecessors as regards t h e ~duration of the people, but also for proposing an additicoul sum to the annual grant. Sir ROBERT PEEL arinoumnd last night that the demands on the funds were so numerous that the sum voted would not be sufficient, and he would, therefore, propose that 10,0001. should be added, thus making the grant this year, 40,0001. This is but a small sum for such an important object, but we quarrel not with the at wunt at present, when there is such evidence of g ood intentions, and especially when the people them selves seem anxious to assist the Government, and press on them the necessity of further aid. It is known that no money is granted from this fund till the inhabi tants of the district where a school is wanted have raised certain amount for the same purpose. It is gratifying to find, therefore, that the sum subscribed this year is. gteater than on former occasions, and that as far as mut be ascertained, Churchmen and Dissenters vie with each other in the good work.. Would the Church only leave the people to follow the dictates of their own minds, the public would be spared most of those disgrsceful disputes that take place between different .. sec ti, and we notice, therefore, with regret the ominous interference of the Bishop of LONDON last even inn on the . • subject. This pious Prelate was :peed at the liberal sentiments delivered by Lord uoicid ur: on a former occasion, and inti . faun that they had. also alarmed others, or as he i ex tti pi' himself, "had occasioned considerable sensation thtou g ii-: 3 - out the country." This sensation, if any such has been produced, we believe is confined to a very few :ORtixl Churchmen like himself; for a speech less likely . .foi(e offence to rational beings, than that pronounced,hy ;_t,jme President of the Council, could hardly be made. The F:WS PA P object of it was to encourage education alike among the children of Churchman, - Catholics, and Dissenters, and as they all contributed to the grant, to rnalw them equally partiCipute in its benefits. llis Lordship seems determined to persevere in this course, And we trust will not swerve from his purpose at the suggestion of parties who have as a body, though there are honourable exceptions, ever shown themselves the bitter enemies of sound and practical education. Madrid letters of the 17th inst. state that the REGENT ad ordered the Court to go into mourning fur the death f the Duke of ORLEANS. France presents a singularly impressive picture at this moment. The death of .the Puke of ORLEANS seems to have confounded and disordered the projects and hopes sf all parties. No one but the KING appears to know what course to follow, 431' what policy to adopt. It was supposed some days ago that Louis l'inurrE had gained over M. TRIERS, and . that no oppo sition would be made to the Regency. of the- Duke of Numouas ; but on Sunday a quite dif- ferent impression was abroad. It no longer seems to us improbable that he will shortly come into office. and once more peril the peace of the world. M. GUIZOT, we begin to fear, cannot stand. Ills - enemies are so numerous, and so violent, and he is so singled out from his colleagues for popular execration, that we do not see how it is possible for him to maintain himself in office during the ensuing session of the Chambers. We express this conviction with deep regret. France, we are convinced, will yet bitterly lament the rancour with which she now traduces the greatest and most respectable of her statesmen. More than 350 Deputies have already arrived at Paris. A great number of them meetevery day in the Salle des Confe rences and in the library of the Chamber. To-morrow, the 25th, the preparatory meeting with closed door. w ill take place in the Salle des Conferences. The object of this last meeting is to form the provisional bureaux of the Chamber, and to ballot for the grand deputation of 25 Members who are to meet the King on his coming to open the session. The questors will invite the oldest of the Members present to take the President's chair. and the four youngest Members to act as secretaries. On Wednesday, the 27th, the Chamber will meet twice in public sitting, and once in the bureaux. After balloting ter the composit►on of the nine bureaux, the presidents and the secretaries of them will be nominated. A great number of elections, the validity of which cannot be contested, will be confirmed in the same sitting. The verifications of the returns at the commencement of a legislature often takes from eight to twelve sittings. Never theless, as those elections, which require a long investigation, maybe deferred till after the definitive formation of the Bureaux of the Chamber, it is probable that the Chamber may be able to be present at the funeral of the Duke of Orleans on the 3d of August, headed by the President. The nomination of the Committee to draw up the address in answer to the King's Speech, and the presentation of the pro ject of law on the Regency may take place on the sth or Gth of next month. A Journal says that 380 Deputies had inscribed their names yesterday. It is thought that at least 430 Mem bers will take part in the first operation of the session, and in the vote on the law of the Regency.— Constitutionnel. GEORGE THE FOURTH'S STATUE.—Among The votes brought forward last night in the House of Commons, was one of 6,300 L for a bronze statue of George the Fourth 1 This is a most scandalous business, and every way worthy of a Tory Ministry, by whom it was origi nally projected in 1829. What possible claim has George the Fourth on the grateful recollection of the People ? Is the example he set, as a son—a father—a husband—a friend—a monarch—one that calls for their reverence ? A reckless voluptuary in youth ; an apostate to his principles in middle life ; a selfish, narrow-minded egotist in age there is no Sovereign who has swayed the British sceptre, since the days of Charles the Second, so wholly undeserving of even the slightest tribute of public respect, as this showy, heartless despot. Let those who propose erecting a statue to such a man. pay for it themselves, and not presume to saddle the country with the expense of its erection. The 6,3001. which it is to cost, would be far better employed in relieving the distresses of the starving Operatives in the manufacturing districts. TRANSPORTING THE BISHOP OF EXETER.—Captain Pechell observed last night in the House of Commons, that " there was now a vote on the paper, of ninety three pounds, for the expense of carrying the Bishop of Exeter to the : Scilly Isles."—We had no idea that Epis copal transkortation was so expensive a businesi. Ninety-three pounds for conveying a bishop some thirty or forty miles by self`! Why, a doien emigrants have been conveyed three thodSand miles—say, from Paisley to Canada—for an infinitely less sum t Of course, the ghostly Prelate took:care to carry all his staff with him— his 'cooks, butlers, stewards, secretaries, chaplains, &c., in order the better to impress -the Scilly islanders with a sense of his Apostolic importance, and also to provide for his own creature comforts, of which bishops, to do them justice, are seldom neglectful ; but why are the People to be called on to pay for all these episcopal luxuries ? What benefit has the community at large derived from Exeter's transportation to Scilly ? Had the transportation been for life—or even for 14 years— then, indeed, the people might have been the gainers, for they would have had one bitter enemy less in the House of Lords; but as it is, they gain nothing, but the consolation of knowing that they have contributed to the personal comforts of a •bishop who is so remarkably fond of his ease, that he cai.not even resist the temptation of falling asleep in church time ! We hope some Liberal Member will make a point of calling for the items of this episco pal bill of ninety-three pounds What are the Representa tives for Finsbury about ? We call on them to bestir themselves. The Bishop's sea voyage would be a capi tal subject for Mr. Duncombe's lively sarcasm, and Mr. Walticy's imaginative Muse BELFAST ELECTION COMPROMISE.—The Committee in their Report state, that gross bribery and extensive corruption prevailed at the late election, that more than 7501. had been paid for car hire, under colour of .con veying voters to the pall; and that four individuals were brought from Monaghan, a distance of forty mi!es, to personate on the part of Conservatives disqualified persons. These gentlemen consummated their guilt by awful perjury. It appears also that the state or the registry is most objectionable, the number of persons registered being 5,000, while the bona fide electors do not Qxceed 1,800. THE COLLATON KIRICHAM ESTATE.—The fine estate of Montague Parker, Esq., late M.P. for South Devon shire, it is determined, is to be sold in lots, at Totnes, instead of being disposed of altogether. It includes some of the finest farms throughout Devonshire, with the river Dart for the boundary. The tenantry are first-rate men, and amongst their manifold virtues Mr. Robins notices that they have never required, nor would._ they receive any abatement of rent. It consists of near twelve hundred acres, and the soil is said to be unsurpassable anywhere; indeed, it has been affirmed that the bullocks fatted upon this land are immediately recognised on their arrival in Smithfield market. The sale of these farms will give the capitalist a first-rate opportunity to invest in perfect security. Rubini, that soul-stirring tenor, in a few days closes a triumphant career of theatrical celebrity unknown since the days of the lamented Malibran. ller Majesty's Theatre no dotibt will be • thronged nightly, now it is generally known he intends to bid -:a long and lasting adieu to his friends, patrons, and the stage. To-night he sings the " Lucia," and on Thursday appears in two fa vourite parts,being an extra night. Signor Costa, with his usual good judgment, postpones his benefit till Thursday next, when the hart ton will be in town from Goodwood, and a full house will be ensured. ELECTION COMMITTEES. (THIS DAY.) ipswicH. The Committee met again this morning at eleven o'clock. Mr. P. M. Stewart in the Chair. ltcbert Jobson Taylor was (ailed and examined by Mr. KINGSLAKE-1 live at Ipswich. lam a porter employed at the Orion steamer. Last Sunday afternoon I received a sum mons to come to London. I received a sovereign at the same time. I was directed to leave Ipswich that evening. I did not do so, as I had nothing to come in, but I intended to set out on the Monday morning. I saw Mr. Pownall on Sunday evening. I had the papers which had been delivered to me , and as I c:nld neither read nor write 1 did not know what they were for, so 1 took them to Mr. Pownall. He explained them to tile. Alr. Pilch brought the summons to me, and told ICC it was for me to attend and give evidence before a Committee of the House of Commons, but I did not understand it. I knew nothing about the petition, nor did I know that any freemen had left Ipswich to attend the Co,mmittee. I told Mr. Pilch I would leave Ipswich on Mon day morning. I went to Mr. Pownall between eight and nine on Monday evening. I asked Mr. Pownall it I was to go up on Monday esenirig. Mr. Pownall looked at the paper, and s tid "It says that you must go." I asked him if I was obliged io go ; and he said, "Where is the man that brought it to you ?" I told him it was Pilch, who was at the Coach and Horses. Mr. Pownall went to the Coach and Horses with me, and he spoke to Pilch. He said " I believe,this young man is to go to London ;" and Pilch said, " According to this paper he must go to-night." Mr. Pownall said, " He is to go by coach ; here is a sovereign, but that will not par his expenses up ; as it is a bad night to ride outside be must ride inside." 1 never rode inside a coach in my life. Pilch offered me ss. more, and asked me if that would bo sufficient? Mr. Pownall said it was not enough, and that I ought to have 2/. ; and Pilch said he should not give it. Mr. Pownall said, then I shall per suade the young man not to go this evening, but to stop and go by the steam-boat in the morning. I was employed to at tend the Orion at the last election. My wages were 16s. per week. I voted for Desart and Gladstone. I polled after I had done my work. I was cut off that day's pay. I heard that the full amount of my wages was paid out of the counting-house, I was cut off 2s. 6d. I did not return to work on the Saturday, as I did not think they would have me any more. We work an gangs. 1 received 6s. on the Corn-hill in Mr. Deck's room. I received it for my loss of time. I was out the whole of Thursday night with three or four other people. I went to Mr. Deck's room alone. I saw two gentlemen there. I do not know them. 1 said I had lost a day's pay, and I asked for a trifle. It was between twelve and one when 1 went there. I had been told previously that I should not be paid for that day's work. I got ss. for my trouble, and Is. for go ing round the town with the party after the election. 1 know Mr. Bristoe. He came into the room just after I was paid. I did not se e Mr. Steward there . Mr. Mulley called not. promised my vo t e b e f ore Lord L at my house to can vass me. Mr. Keeble came with him. orcl Desert D esa rt andalso came. Mr.o campacl lioto me. I was canvasse d the week before by Mr. May, Mr. Mulley, and Sir. Bray. I was attending the Orion on the Quay. Some of them said, " I understand you voted for the Blues at the la s t e l ect i on ; I hope vou will give us a tur n this time. I did not promise. I will positively swear that I did not promise to vote for Gisborne and Moffatt, or any body else. 1 cannot say w h et h er I used the words, ".I have no objection." I will not swear that I I did not see them. I should not like to take a false oath on any account. Mr. Mulley came to my house to takee us e to al p 0 01 l for Gisborne and Mr. Hutt. He said, " Taylor, oalong with me and vote." Lord Desart came while Mr. Mulley was there. Mr. Mulley took me into a back room directly Lord Desart came in. Air. Mulley told me he had behaved well to me; I had got a good berth, and I had better jump into the yellow carriage, and go up to vote. Lord Desart then opened TUE SUN LQNDON 2 TrEEDAY EVENING, JULY 26, 1842. the door of the back room, and 'said, " Mr. Mulley, you have been hero long enough, it is my turn now." Mr. Mulley left the room ; and Lotd Desart then asked me to go up to poll. I declined, and he shook hands with me and kft the house: I did not say anything to Lord Desert about my employment that I have any recollection of. By Mr. TAI.Bor —My wife was in the room at the time Lord Desart was with me. I have voted Blue ever since I took up my freedom. I am still employed under Mr. May. I walked round the town at the side of the carriage, and carried a staff as a constable. 1 was told to walk . about the town on Thursday night, to see that none of the men were taken away. I did not receive any promise of money for my vote. The statement that I received 5/. for my votefrom Mr. Cooke, Mr. Cobbold, Mr. Bristoe, or Mr. Steward, is entirely false. The w itness then withdrew. ' This terminated the case for the petitioners. Mr. Ktszost.Axt then rose to address the Committee. He said he was happy to congratulate the Committee on their hav ing arrived at the termination of the evidence in maintenance of the prayer of this petition. He had stated in his opening address a case of bribery, ' the voter being Henry Greaves, in which he stated that Mr. Glad stone was personally involved. He (Mr. K.) was instructed in his brief to state such a case ; having been so instructed it became his most pleasing duty to withdraw every sort of impu. tation against that Hon. Member. • The Learned Counsel then proceeded to comment upon the evidence, and cited a number of cases in support of his argument, that this election ought to be set aside on the ground of bribery and treating, as provided by the Statute of William the Third. The Learned Gentleman had .not concluded when we went to press. LAW INTELLIGENCE. CHANCERY CO CRT-(T HIS DAY.) (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND. ) His HoNOUR took motions to 'clay. No case requiring special notice came before the Court. VICE-CHANCERY.--(THIS DAY.) (Beiore Vice-Chancellor BRUCE.) His Hai.lonx was engaged during the morning in hearing and disposing of a number of causes and petitions. The cases generally involved purely technical points. A great number were set down in the paper for hearing. INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY.) IN RE WILLIAM PAINTER. 'the insolvent in this case appeared on his petition to be discharged. lie described himself in his schedule as clerk to a broker and bill discounter, with a salary of 2/. per week. A great number of creditor? names appeared in his balance sheet, to whose benefit there appeared not a fraction available. None of them, however, appeared in opposition. The Learned CHIEF COMMISSIONER commented severely upon the nature of the insolvent's liabilities, amongst which %%ere the names of five tailors, to whom he owed the sum of 581. There also appeared 22/. due to different tobacconists for cigars; 71. for perfumery; 9/: for umbrellas and walking sticks ; 71. for rings and other small articles of jewellery ; and IV. for the hire of horses and mbs from two jobmasters. He (the Chief Commissioner) said , it was fortunate for the insolvent that none of the tradesmen whom he had duped came forward to oppose him, for if they did he should certainly have received the fullest measure of punishment which the discretionary clause permitted, for his reckless and unprin cipled extravagance. As it was, the Court now had no dis cretion but to order him to be disclarged. The insolvent then lett the Court, evidently felicitating hirs self on his fortunate escape. IN RE HENRY JESSE TAYLOR. The insolvent, who was described as a builder, applied to be discharged. He attributed his insolvency to unsuccessful spe culations in building. After a few questions from Lite Learned Chief Commissioner with respect to the disposal of some houses in Kensington, the further hearing of the case was ordered to stand for the 3d of August, the insolvent to be allowed in the intermediate time to retrain out on bail.

Attention being icily directed to the English Market, Foreign Securities have been neglected ; prices, however, are nominally the same as Yesterday. The only transaction has been a purchase in the Dutch Two-and-a-Halt per Cents. at 51t. A sale of Chilian Six per Cent. Stock has been effected at 87. This is particularly noticed in consequence of the advan tage taken by the jobbers of the small quantity of those bonds in the market, to make a margin of five per cent. at the least, and sometimes more ; thus " screwing out" either trout buyer or seller, as the case may be very profitable turn for themselves. This mode of proceeding is viewed, to use a mild term, as being so unbusiness like, that scarcely a broker gives them a place in prices. The quotation tor Mexican is 36a. The Share Market has shown a. disposition to advance, and an improvement of 2/. per share has taken place in Edinburgh and Glasgow Old Shares, some of which have changed hands at 481. 7s.

A Bill of the greatest importance to mercantile men has lately passed through Parliament, and applies to all engage. ments, on the principle of merchant and factor, entered into subsequenUy to the 30th June last ; all previously to that date being subject to the old law, of which this is an amendment. Previously to the introduction of the former Bill, no property belonging to a principal could be held as security fur advances made to an agent or a third party, even if no moral doubt existed but that the advances were for the use of the principal himself. The Act which altered this, muie the loan valid under certain circumstances, and rendered it a criminal offence for afactor to pledgeproperty with which he might be intrusted,if done without authority. The exceptions in this Bill were so subtle and diffieult to be decided, that much litigation ensued, anti in con sequence capitalists procured the passage of the new Bill through the Legislature, and which has now come into opera tion. By it parties making advances on property are protected from any fraudulent act of the person from whom it may have been received with reference to any other persons. And, therefore, whets goods are once intrusted to agents, the owner fur the time loses all property in them, and only has his remedy for any wrong against the party to whom they may have been given, and for all advances the agent now stands in the posit len of principal.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE :MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CITY, MONDAY EVENING, TIMES.—The intelligence from the manufacturing towns is such as to show that at ]cast a hope of increased activity in trade generally prevails. From Leeds we have descriptions of animation in the Cloth Halls, and of Manchester it is said that there is more healthy feeling than has been known for some time past. There the effect of the new tariff has been to set free a quantity of capital which had been previously lockesi up, and a disposition to purchase cotton manufactures for the fo reign market is arising from the impression that these goods hive already reached their lowest price. From Sheffieal there is a corresponding mention of symptoms of a revival of trade, and the general feeling seems to be, that while the greatest pains have been taken by designing writers to give affairs the Horst possible aspect, there is still good cause to hope, from the modifications of the Corn-laws and the operation f the new tariff, that a better state of things is at hand. Since the disclosures which were made in the close of last year of losses sustained by the Bank of Manchester, that con cern has occupied a very small share of public notice. It ap pears that the Directors prudently abstain from making any dividend at present, as will be seen by the annexed circular just issued to the shareholders, which speaks at the same time rather mysterious'y of the future prospects of the establishment : " Bank of Manchester, July 18, 1842. " The Directors of the Bank of Manchester think it proper to acquaint the Proprietors, that important changes have re cently been made in the administration of the affairs of the Company. Among the first consequences of these changes has been the commencement of a more careful analysis of the condition of the Bank ; and it having been made manifest to the Board of Directors that they have hitherto over-estimated the value of many of the outstanding balances, they have felt it their duty to refrain from declaring a dividend for the half-year ending the 30th of June. " The Directors are deeply impressed with the conviction that it is alike due to their own characters and to the Pro prietors at large that a full and explicit statement of the affairs of the Company should be submitted at the approaching an nual general meeting ; but as it is impossible to foresee what may be the actual value of the shares resulting from the search ing investigation which is now in progress, it cannot be ex pected that they should here anticipate the communications to be made in the annual Report. "'They would, however, beg to remind the Proprietors in the meanwhile, that the failures which have been already an nounced, or may from time to time occur, among parties who are indebted to the Bank, must be taken rather as an evidence of an altered system of management, than as affording grounds for renewed apprehension ; and they venture to bespeak, on be half of those who have undertaken duties of no ordinary difficulty, that confidence and co-operation on the part of the Proprietors (in allaying unnecessary alarm and mischievous excitement) which are indispensable to a calm and careful in quiry, and to an efficient protection of the interests of all par ties concerned. " By order of the Beard of Directors, " EDMUND BURDEKIN, " WILLIAM SMITH, "Managing Directors." SUN.—The advance in the Funds, noticed this morning, has not only continued, but has further increased. Some purchases which have been made on next account, coupled with the fa vourable intelligence of the progress of the harvest, and of the improved demand for goods in the manufacturing districts, has given a firmer tone to the market. The private letters from the various trades in Manchester, Sheffield, &c., speak less desoondingly than they have for some time past. Although they represent that the deepest distress exists among the labourers, still, though remote, the masters perceive a pros poet of being able, before long, to give additional em ployment, by which the present distressing state of affairs will, at any rate, be partially alleviated. The statements from Manchester, in particular, are extremely satisfactory, in comparison with those it has of late been the custom to re-• ceive ; and it is in this town and in its neighbourhood that the greatest deprivation has been experienced, and any altera tion for the better is, perhaps, therefore somewhat more highly appreciated than it would have been under ordinary circum stances ; but it may be fairly presumed, from all these accounts, that the extreme point of depression is past, although much cause remains for serious apprehension. Consols left off at 91 for Money, and 91 911 for the Ac count ; Bank Stock, 1651 1661 ; Lido. Stock, 249 250 ; Ex chequer Bills, Old, 48 50 ; New, 46 50 prem.

London and Birmingham were 180 181 ; Birmingham and Gloucester, 48 50 ; Great Western, 861 871 • the Half-Shares, 611 621 ; South Western, 611 621; North Midland, 59 60 ; the New Shares, 29 30; South Eastern and Dover. 22/ 23; the Scrip, 71 8; East ern Counties, 84 94; Northern and Eastern, 401 411; Blackwall, 9 9.1 ; and Brighton, 33 34 per share.

Custom, and the circumstance of these documents still remain ing in the official lists, should a bargain be made in them, render it obligatory to quote them, but as far as real transac tions are concerned, scarcely one is entered into in six months.

LAUNCH OF THE GOLIATH AND VIRA Yesterday the launch of these vessels took place at Chatham, in the preience of a vast multitude. The Dockyard was properly thrown open to the public, and great numbers who had tickets were admitted to seats in the booths erected for the occasion. These, at a mode rate calculation, contained about 1,600 persons, inde pendent of a considerable number of seats appropriated for officers and their friends. A great number of ladies were present, and owing to the splendid weather and the admirable arrangements of Captain Sheriff; the superin tendent, and Mr. Fineham, the master shipwright, by which every precaution was taken against accidents, the secxe altogether had a must beautiful effect. The Virago, which was launched first, is a steam-ship of 994 tons re gister. Her length on deck is 180 feet, and on the keel 156 ; her extreme breadth is 36 feet, her tonnage breadth 35 feet 8.1 inches, and her moulded breadth 35 inches ; her depth in hold 21 feet. At one o'clock, the preparations being all completed, the signal was given, and she went off in tine style, amidst enthusiastic cheer ing. "I he launch of the Goliath took place ut a guar' er past two. Not fewei than forty shipwrights had been it work from five o'clock in the morning, and everything was ready at two o'clock, the hour announced for the launch. Among the company .present on the interesting occasion were—the I and Duchess of Buccleuch, Lord Adolphus Fitzelarence, Lord Ashley, Lord and Lady Morley, the Hon. Mr. Carey, one of the Lords of the Admiralty, Admiral Sir W. Gage, Capt. Fremantle, the Hon. Mr. Baring, Admiral Bruce, Commander-in- Chief at Sheerness, Sir F. Smith, Sir 'l'. Wiltshire, Commander at Chatham, • Capt. Douglas and party, &c. Before the ceremony of christening the Goliath com menced, the band played 4' God save tho Queen;" after which a hymn written for the occasion, and adapted to the air " Strike the cymbal," was sung. The bugles then sounded lrom the head, and were answered from the stern, when the Duchess of Buccleuell, under the direction of Captain Sheriff, took the bottle of wine, :which was decorated with rosettes and various-coloured ribbons, and dashed it against the boW, but without breaking it. A second attempt, however, succeeded, and her Grace named the vessel "The Goliath." Tko bobs and dogshores were withdrawn, and the magnificent ship moved slowly twd steadily front the dock, and in less than a minute floated gracefully on the water. Loud shouts were raised from the crowd in the dock, which were returned from the shore. The launch of both ves selS was conducted in such an admirable manlier that every one had a good view, and not the slightest dent occurred either on the river or ashore. The dis tinguished company, after partaking of refreshments provided for them on board the Goliath, separated highly delighted. Mr. Finch= at the same time enter tained a numerous party at his home) on the terrace. The Goliath is an 80- gun ship, and will carry 28 guns on her lower deck, and the same number on her middle deck, the remaining 24 guns to be on the quarter-deck and forecastle. fler tonnage is a little above 2,595 tons. She measures in length of gtin-deck 190 feet, and in length of keel 1551 feet ; her extreme breadth being 56 feet 101 inches; for tonnage 56 feet, and moulded 55 feet 41 inches; her depth in the hold is 23 feet 4 inches. There will be a rich musical treat at the Opera on Thursday night—Rossini's Mose in Egitto, an act of Le Can tatrieellane, and an act of I Puripni. Rubini is about to leave us, and for ever; and this will be the last night but five of his appearance. INCENDIARY FlRE.—Between one and two o'clock this morning an incendiary fife was discovered to be raging on the farm of i%lr. Johnson, Plumstead Marshes, near Woolwich, which, before it was subdued, destroyed two large stacks of hay. When the fire was discovered both steaks of hay were burning, and pp .ared to have been ignited at the same time. That it was tl c a tof an incendiary there can be no doubt, as a few days since a similar attempt was made, but which, for tunately, was unsuccessful ; while, in the course of Wednes day night or Thuisday morning, several sheep, which were on the Marshes, the property of Mr. Johnson, were horribly mu tilated. The engines, from the dockyard, Woolwich, were soon on the spot and set to work. A mounted po:iceman, of the - R. Division: "was despatched to town ; Mr. Henderson, with the Southwark-bridge-road engine proceeded to the spot. The fire was fortunately confined to the hay-stacics, SMEARY OF NEWS AND Ltptutott. Who runs may rein!." FOREIGN. The Paris papers of Sunday have arrived. They are prin cipally occupied with the probable course which the Opposi tion will follow io the impending session of the Chambers. La Presse and La Commerce assert that no opposition will be offered by the party of M. Th:ers to the address of the Chamber of Deputies in reply to the King's Speech, or to the Regency 13111. The Courrier Francais which journal is held to speak the sentiments of N. Tillers himself, declares, how ever, that "the Opposition members," meaning, no doubt, those under the influence of that person, " were determined to do their duty." Sunday's Moniteur states that Mr. Ashbel Smith had written to the Mioister of Foreign Affairs his letters of credit as Charge d'Affaires for the republic of Texas, in the place of Mr. Macintosh, recalled. The Madrid Gazette of the 17th inst., publishes a decree appointing a council, composed of the following persons, to assist the Minister of Finance in restoring the national credit : M. 'J. Maria Ferrar, (President), MM. Bernardo de Borges, I. Escorial, Felipe Gomez Acebo, Manuel Cantero, Higinio di Arche, Manuel Cortes, Joaquim de Fagsaga, J. F. Gangolio, Manuel di Azpillcueta, and Manuel de Zuniga (Secretary). The Frankfort Journal publishes a letter, dated Trieste, the 11th inst., stating that Mehemet Ali had assured the French engineer Mongel, that he wished to realize the dream of his life—the junction of the Red Sea and the Mediterranean by means of a canal. For this purpose the Paella had written to Mr. Brunel, the engineer who executed the Thames Tunnel, proposing to him to undertake this work. P.A.RTAILIKENTI3.I2Ir. The Lord Chancellor was again absent from the House last night on account of ill health. The Sudbury Disfranchisement Bill was in consequence postponed till Friday, and Lord Campbell's motion about Coun sel till Thursday. The Bishop of London took the Lord President of the Council, Lord Wharncliffe, to task for his supposed observa tions about education, and Lord Wharncliffe very kindly assured the Lord Bishop that he meant to pursue the same course as his predecessor, and abhors a normal school without religion. On the motion for recommitting the Mines and Collieries Bill, Lord Brougham-made a very sensible speech on the sub ject, very properly cautioning their Lordships how they inter fered with labour, and pointing out several cases of greater immorality than employing children in mines, with which their Lordships are not likely to interfere. The Marquis of Londonderry opposed the motion for re committing the Bill, and moved that it be referred to a Select Committee. After a short debate, his motion was negatived by 49 to 3, and their Lordships went into a Committee on the Bill. Lord Lyttelton proposed to postpone the operation of the clause relative to women till May, but his amendment was negatived. Several verbal amendments were made in the Bill, which ultimately went through the Committee. It is to be read a third time on Friday. In the Commons the Commercial Treaty with Portugal was laid ou the table. Several notices were given and questions asked; for which we refer to the report. Sir R. Peel, in reply to a question put by Lord Palmerston on a former evening, stated that an additional sum of 10,000/. would be voted to meet the demands on the grant for education. In reply to Mr. Ewart, Sir James Graham said that he had no intention to propose any substitute for transportation as a punishment. - Mr. Thomas Dunconibe, on the motion for the House to go into a Committee of Supply, moved for the depo sitions in the case of Mason, a Chartist, who had been arrested and tried at Stafford, on the 2d instant, for sedition. A debate ensued, which turned principally on the power of a constable to arrest people whom he supposes to be guilty of sedition. The Tories chimed such a power for canstables ; the Liberals denied that it was constitutional Lord Palmerston took the popular side. On a division, Mr. T. Duncombe's motion was rejected by 116 to 52. Mr. Sharman Crawford afterwards called the attention of the House to the distress in Ireland, but withdrew his motion on the subject, after being assured that it had not escaped the at tention of the Government. The House then went into Committee of Supply, and voted away a considerable sum of the hard-worked people's money. The House sat at the work till Half-past One ECCLESIASTICAL. The Dean of Ferns, and incumbent of Gorey for upwards of fifty years, died at Gorey on the 21st inst. LAW AND POLICE. Denis Murphy, charged with the murder of John Bernet, of Tallaght, Dublin, was arrested on Thursday, and committed to Kilmainham gaol. William Carnill was opposed yesterday in the Insolvent Debtors' Court, on behalf of the parish authorities of Newton. Warwickshire. The insolvency of the prisoner arose out of his nonsuit in the case of some litigated poor-rates due by him, and he was now in prison for the law-costs, amounting to 641. He had, however, a cottage and a small plot of ground which he wculd not surrender to his creditors. The Court, therefore, adjourned the case sine die, until he should choose to yield .them up. • Isabella Bird, was yesterday charged at Marlborough-street with stealing a pin and a pair of trowsers, the property of Sir H. Vavasour, and fully committed. William Worrell was also finally examined at the same Court for robbing Mr. James, his employer, of John. street, Oxford street, of trunks and portmanteaus, and likewise committed. Elizabeth Small, an old gips) , woman, was indicted at the Exeter Assizes, on Saturday, for obtaining from William Hard ing divers sums of money, amounting in all to 28/., for exer cising assumed witchcraft. The complainant had long keen growing feeble from a malady which afflicted bins, and she per suaded him that one of his neighbours had looked upon him with the evil eye, and that until the baneful influence of this could be counteracted, it was impossible he could get well. This imposition was carried for some time, till the prisoner's finally robbing him of 251. opened the infatuated man's eyes. She was found guilty, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment. William London, an elderly man, formerly a substantial plumber in Spitalfields, was brought up at Worship-street, yeiterday, charged with behaving in a disorderl y manner at NWest hackney Church. He had a desire to effect some minor reforms in the church, and for this purpose was accustomed to chalk various inscriptions on the pews and galleries of the churches he visited. It was arranged he should be got into the Hanwell, or some other lunatic asylum. Henry Cramer, of No. 43, Devonshire-street, Queen-square, civil engineer, was yesterday placed at the Greenwich police bar, charged with endangering the safety of the passengers on the Croydon Railway, and causing the death of Joseph Clutter buck, the guard of the train, by his conduct in getting out of the carriage and sitting on the top of the one adjoining. The defendent was bound over to .appear anti answer the charge at the Guilford assizes . . At the Staffordshire Assizes, on Saturday, Lewis Wardle, by trade a butcher, who had already appeared at the bar nine times, although only twenty-two years of age, stood indicted for assaulting Richard Myatt, putting him in danger of his life, and stealing from his person 301. in gold coin, and two Si. notes. He was found guilty, and sentenced to transportation for life. SPORTING. The Great rowing-match between the Westminster and Eton scholars takes place to-day on the Thames, the starting hour being half-past six this evening. The Westminster colour is pink, and that of the E oniana light blue. The boats will start in the reach of water below Kew-bridge, and row to Putney-bridge. The Goodwood and Chesterfield Cups, which are on view at Messrs. Garrards, in the Haymarket, till the day of racing, are designed from models by Mr. Cotterill, and are finely grouped in silver. The subject on the Goodwood Cup is taken from the ballad of " Thoma 3, the Rhymer." who is represented as paying his devoirs to the Fairy Queen, gracefully seated on her palfrey. The subject of the Chesterfield Cup represents Bruce, and the battle of Bannockburn, at the moment when he atrikes down Bohm) ) and exclaims " I have broken my good battle-axe." COURT-FASIIION.A ISLE • The Duke and Duchess of Portland leave Harcourt House, Cavendish-tquare, to-day, for Welbeck Abbey, Notts. The Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch intend to pass a month at Richmond, previous to their departure for Scotland.

Lord and Lady Pensonby will leave the Clarendon, on a visit to the Bishop at Oxford at Canterbury, on Saturday next. :YIEXSUELX. fin aciOtlb. Doprez, the celebrated tenor, has returned to Paris, to re sume his duties at the Grand Opera. Aleyerbeer is also about to bring out his new grand opera in that city, at the Academie Royale. Upwards of 2,530 persons visited the Tower last week. The receipts from the Armouries and Jewel-o ffi ce amounted to 631 7s. Eton school broke up on Monday for the holidays. The number of scholars for 1842 is 649, being an increase of 24 since last year, and upwards of 30J since the commencement of the present century, when the numbers were only 357. From the foundation of the College upwards of 2,256 scholars have passed to King's, The gland banquet of the National Agricultural Improve ment Sociecy of IrelAnd took place last week at Cork. The company amounted to about 1,000. The chair was occupied by the ;Marquis of Downshire, and the vice-chair by the Earl of Shannon. The Earl of Carbery, Earl of Erne, Lord Ber nard, and a great number of landed proprietors were present. TIIE MARKETS.-(1 HIS DAY). COLONIAL MARKET. The demand for most kinds of procuce was steady, without any material variation in prices. TALLOW MARKET. There was great heaviness in the market, and prices were just nominal at 48s. on the spot, and 495. for future delivery. WOOL MARKET. The public sale of Colonial Wool still progresses, and more spirit was displayed in the biddings; the prices realised are now a; nearly as possible those current at the last public sales ; almost everything offered was sold. WIIITECHAPEL HAY MARKET. There was a good supply, but only fine qualities were in demand ; the middling and ordinary qualities were heavy of sate. Clover, 2:.

A public Festival, in celebratiun of the opening of the Hall of tie National Association, took place last evening, at the Hall, 242, High Holborn. J. T. Leader, Esq., was in the Chair. 'lie room was extremely full, and more than half of the audience were ladies, whose bright eyes and flowing lorks, gave an additional charm to the entertainment. Several excellent vocalists were amongst the company, and at intervals enlivened the meeting with various selections of vocal music, which added greatly to the pleasure of the evening. The tea, coffee, &c., were excellent, and certainly did credit to the parties who su perintended the " getting up," and the company evinced their gratitude by doing ample justice to the fare. As soon as the cloth was removed, The CHAIRMAN rose, and was received with loud cheering. He said he saw around him many who were accustomed to attend public meetings, and he had no doubt that all of them had heard speakers say a number of things which they did not feel quite so sincerely as they expressed them. But he begged of them to believe that on that occasion he expressed the sincerity of his footings, when he told them that he never felt so much gratified at any public meeting in his life as he did on that occasion.—(Cheers.) There were several reasons for his peculiar gratification, and one of then, was—and that not the least—in seeing so many of the fairer and better sex adorning that meeting with their presence.— ( Cheers. ) He felt the more gratified at seeing them there, considering how much depended upon them in carrying out their opinions and views, as in a great part the reduction of the rising generation depended upon their exertion.—(Cheers.) Another reason for his peculiar gratification was that. he should have been selected for the great honour of presiding on that occasion—viz., the opening of that hall for the purposes of the workingclasses.—(Cheers. ) But the chief cause of his gratification on that occasion was, that he ex pected great things from the establishment of that hall. They had now got their own Exeter Hall, and though it was large, and though, perhaps, they would not have so many Lords and great people holding forth in that hall, yet he truly believed that a better doctrine would be preached there.—(Loud cheers.) He believed that there would be more true Christian charity preached in that hall, and a sounder doctrine raised for the benefit of the mass, than ever was preached in Exeter Hall.— ( Cheers.) He had been called upon to speak to the first sen timent—the sentiment was good in idea, as it was happily ex pressed. He had very great pleasure in speaking to the senti ment, because this was of all others the time in which they ought to strive to get rid of the evils complained of in that sentiment. It run thus :—" The People—may all men per ceive it to be their duty to investigate the causes of social mi sery and political oppression ; and may they be speedily united in the holy endeavour to make their country prosperous, en lightened, virtuous, and free." He had often heard in another place that the House of Commons was the representative of the intelligence, the morality, and wealth of this great country. He (Mr. Leader) had denied it there, and he denied it louldly in that hall.—(Cheers.) It was not now the denial of a single man—it was not the denial of any person who might be con tradicted by any other person, for they had sound Parliarrentay authority for saying, that in the House of Commons there sat Members who had no right to their seats—their seats had been secured by disgraceful compromises—their seats had been se cured by profligate bribery, and what he considered another species of bribery, wholesale intimidation.—(Loud cheers. ) For his part he considered that the country owed a debt of gratitude to Mr. Roebuck—(Loud cheers) —for the bold, the successful, and admirable manner in which he had charged those Members with delinquencies, and exposed them to the world at large.—(Cheers.) Many of them knew that it was notorious in Parliamentary circles, as they were called, that corrupt compromises had taken place for years. This had been often asserted in public meetings, and as often de nied by those interested in denying it. Then it was mere as sertion against assertion ; many persons believed that such things existed, but there was no good evidence of its existence. But now they might go with the blue book, containing Mr. Roebuck's report, in hand, and they might see the great borough of Nottingham disgraced by bribery, and mote disgraceful compromise. There was Harwich, Lewes, Reading, Penne, with equally disgraceful cases of bribery and compromise, and he would tell them that they might judge sixty or seventy other places by the exposition of these six places. This exposition proved how the representatives of the morality, intelligence, and wealth of the country gained their seats and kept them.—(Cheers.) He believed that the Bill of Lord John Russell never could put down bribery and intimida tion • nothing but a large extension of the constituencies ever would have that effect.--( Tremendous cheering.) He believed that the remedy was not in making men take an oath at the bar of the House of Commons, nor by making. the poor elector perjure himself after having taken a bribe ; this was nos the remedy to be applied to the representative system—the only re medy was by increasing the franchise—(Loud cheering)— and until the franchise was extended, there would be no remedy. class legislation was destroying and overwhelming this country. The term " class legislation" was very unpalatable in a certain high place. It was unpalatable because of its perfect truth and application. He believed that there was no remedy but universal suffrage--(Cheers.) He was extremely sorry to be under the absolute necessity of leaving town very early that evening, or he should remain there until the meeting broke up. Thanking them for the attention with which they had heard him, he begged to conclude with the sentiment which he had read.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. Thomas, the Barrister, was then proposed, and took the chair. Mr. LOVETT read letters of apology for non-attendance at the meeting, owing to previous engagements, from Col. Thompson, Mr. T. Duncombe, Sir J. Easthopc, Dr. Bowring, Earl Radnor, Mr. Sharman Crawford, Mr. Villiers, Mr. Williams, Mr. Elphinstone, Mr. Wynn Ellis, and others. Miss Hick then favoured the company with a song, which was much applauded. Mr. PARRY rose to propose the next sentiment :—" May our rule] s and legislators soon be made responsible to the people; may class legislation be destroyed, political corruption removed, and unjust laws abolished; and may the objects of rational legislation be speedily realised—namely, the promotion of industry and the just diffusion of its blessings, the preven tion of crime, the restraining of evil doers, and the encouraging of those who do well." The saddest sight under the sun was a man, able and willing to work, unable to find employment. 'There was a revolution pending in this country, which could not be averted except by universal and comprehensive justice. —(Loud cheers.) They must have a re-organisation of the system. The rights of woman were as sacred as the rights of man.—(Cheers.) The present system was rank with abuses. One of the great excrescences of the State was that overgrown nuisance the Church of England.—(Loud cheers.) He be lieved that it was one of the worst establishments in Europe. Talk of Popery—Popery, in its worst time, never displayed anything so sordid and selfish.—( Hear, hear.) Popery did do some good to the vrorid, but lie thought it was difficult, indeed, to find that any good had even emanated from the Church of England. He thought this subject was not sufficiently dis cussed at public meetings, and he believed that the Church pinched them as much as even the Corn-laws did. Look at the great revenues of the Church. They were at least twelve minions sterling. Why did this money not go to enlighten the ignorant people of the country ? He hoped they would all unite in one firm bond and demand their rights.—( Cheers.) Mr. W. J. Fox spoke to the sentiment, and was received with tremendous cheering. He said the opening of that hall was throwing down the gauntlet to the aristocracy of this country, calling upon them to come forward to prove that the working people of this country were unworthy to exercise the rights of citizenship. What a contrast there was between that hall and another house. In one house they were discussing how they should enslave the poor child in the mines, while they in that hall were discussing how they could exalt and ennoble him.—( Loud cheers.) Was the poor man born to be enslaved by the wealthy peer or the profligate commoner. Were they not all born with one common human heart? They were met in that hall for the benefit of all classes. The universality of the suffrage was the great and primary article of their faith and creed. What absurdity it was of a man, like Stanley, saying that he and fifteen otkers were fledged that the suffrage should be allowed to go no further. But for all this the light of reason must prevail—their agitation must succeed " To teach the peasant his own mind to scan, And learn to know and view himself a man." —(Cheers.) He hoped that hall would realise all the expec tations of its founders, and be attended with an the success its most devout friends could wish. He hoped they would hear there from time to time the first principles of universal justice, npon which alone could be founded true social order, and upon which only can a legitimate Government be supported. For no Government could be legitimate unless it was based upon peace with all the world. and unless its laws were founded on the principles of nniversal justice and the well-being of huma nity, the foundation of the rights of man.—(Cheers.) Song—" Law and liberty." Mr. Lovrrv, who was received with loud cheering, said the sentiment he had been requested to propose, was, " May all D:eformers perceive the importance of Education—the best in strument fur effecting liberty, the surest guarantee for recur• ing it—the best foundation of good laws; good morals, national prosperity, and individual happiness." It was their duty to do all in their pewtr to advance education amongst the people.— ( Hear, hear.) The most important part of education, in his opinion, was, that which taught them to choose wise and good governors.—(Cheers.) Were it not for• bad rulers public cor ruption could not exist. Dlr. VINCENT, in a very eloquent speech, but which want of space compels us to omit, supported the sentiment. Mr. HETHEhINGTON, in proposing the next sentiment, said that the Hall would be open to Members at a subscription of Bd. per month. Ladies would be admitted to the concerti and ctures free.—( Cheers.) The sentiment that he had to pro pose was, that " The National Association for promoting the political and social improvement of the people; may their ob ject be generally appreciated, and their just intentions speedily realised. "—( Cheer s. ) Mr, CLEAVE proposed " The Press ; may it speedily be come pure and unfettered, an honest herald of truth, a bold as serter of right, and an unflinching defender of justice." He hoped the working men of England would support The S,,si, and other papers which had been instrumental in the.r cause, arid which had fought their battles.—(Cheers.) Miss Thornton then favoured the company with a song, which was encored. Several glees were then performed, and the company sepa -1 at ed shortly after 11 o'clock, apparently much delighted. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S. No attendance yesterday, the subscribers having left for Goodwood. It is proper to remind those who propose sta:•ting by the ea rly coaches, that the races commence each day at hall-past twelve o'clock to the minute. ( RECEIVED THIS DAY.) GOODWOOD—MONDAY NIGHT. hree horses are reported to have broken down, viz.: Lord G. Bentinck's Tedworth, Mr. Griffith's Tupslay, and Air. Harrison's Studley Royal.

Chichester, Bognor, &e., are tilling rapidly, and everything promises a most brilliant meeting.

MANUFACTURE OF STARCH, &c.—Amidst the dis mal state of business which has long existed here, and she gloomy forebodings which are hourly poured forth as to the fu ture prospects of the town, it has afforded us very great pleasure indeed to witness this week the various processes of a new ma nufacture which has been introduced, and to all appearance with meat success, while almost every other branch around us is languishing under depression. By some discoveries made a few mouths back by Messrs. Brown and Poison, they were in duced to attempt themanufacture of starch and arrow-root, en a principle new to themselves. It being an important part of their business to use a considerable quantity of starch themselves, they hail ample opportunities of testing the quality of ass article of that description, which they commenced making, and the de cided sspersority which they soon discovered it to possess, in duced them to offer it in the market. Like every other new article, some little difficulty was at first felt in obtaining cus tomers, but these gradually and speedily diminished, and al though riot more than three months have elapsed since the first preparation of the article for sale, we were gratified and sur prised, on our inspection of the work, to find upwards of 20 persons employed in the department of making up the packages alone. By referring to an advertisement on the subject, it will be observed that both the starch and al.:ow-root of Mers rs. Brown aed•Polson have obtained the approval of Ina° of the first chemists in the country, as well as of Inny versos 0. practical experience,—Atisley Paper, T 1-1 E LEVANT MAIL. TURKEY. • CONS:TA NTINOPLE, JULY 7.—Sir Stratford Caning has jog addressed a note to the Porte, accompanied with a repo rt of th e h orr ibl e cru:ities which have been recently perpetrated by Ashkar Pacha at Tripoli. The murder in cold blood of the Arab chiefs, clchlul .feleel and Seif-ul-Nasr, who, with forty other prisoners, had been betrayed into his hands, and whom he had gone into the interior to seize upon in person, is the :east revolting feature of the dark tragedy, whose details, bar pily for the ends of just ce, he has not succeeded in burying with the bodies e.f his victims in the desert. The Arabs, who under promise of reward had given up the above mentioned chieftains, and the children of the latter—mere infants—shared tl,e:r fate, having been barbarously massacred sod their bodies thrown into wells. The motives of the monster for what looks almost like wanton and gra-. 'uitous wickedness, are nevertheless, it is to be feared, but •on consonant with the usual maxims and antecedents of Oriental administration ; since, by some of these murders, he disposes very satisfactorily of pecuniary claims, and those of hereditary vengeance by others. Sir Stratford, therefore, has hastened, by the most impressive, and, at the same time, friendly warning, to prevent the Porte from compromising itself, or inadvertently assuming the responsibility of these crimes, by leaving the author of them unpunished ; and in order that the chances of retribution may be the more certain (and if left to the Grand Vizier, who is himself stained with guilt of a dye almost as deep, they would, indeed, be slight and i ,recarious), he particularly requests that the report be laid be fore the Sultan. The humane and benevolent disposition of his Highness affords every reason to hope that he will view these atrocities in a proper light. At all events it is only right that our Ambassador should spare no pains to open his eyes on the subject. If policy requires that we guarantee the integrity of the Ottoman empire, humanity not less than policy demands that we exert whatever influence we may possess in mitigating the tyranny of its administration, and encouraging the progress of civilization under it. About a fortnight ago Sarim Effendi, the Minister of Ft" reign Affairs, had addressed a note to M. Titoff, in his double capacity of Russian and Persian Charge d'Affaires, calling his attention to the hostile attitude assumed by Persia on the Turkish frontier. Mahmoud Pacha, a Kurdish chieftain, wh ° had been expelled from the Government of Sulymaniah . Ali Pacha of Bagdad, having taken refuge in Persia, revel /cu there a subsidy of three thousand men, by means of whom be succeeded in forcibly reinstating himself in his Pachalic. The Iffimadi-devlet, or Persian Prime Minister, had made a simu l taneous movement from the north, and advanced upon Bayaa h l • In complaining of these unprovoked attacks to M. Titent Sarim Effendi appealed to the amicable intervention of Russia' -*- since otherwise, he added, a declaration of war would be to evitable. As a sequel and consequence of this commu nication, a second note was presented only a few days eel informing: M. Titoff, that Abdourahan Bey, who h a ' been named by Ali Pacha to the Government of Silly maniah, had defeated and put to flight his intrusive compe titor ; and that intelligence had also been received of a decisive victory gained by the Turkish troops over the Iffintadi.devi e ! at Bayazid. The loss of the Persians is said to have amounted to more than four thousand men. The intervention of Russia , • which had been previously invoked, has thus, by the 'valour the Osmantes, been rendered superfluous ; nor does valour a t a 1 conceal his satisfaction at such a result ; for whatever ides he may have formed as to the extent of Russian influence over the Persian Government, he certainly could have no great cow fidence in regard to the manner in which it would be exer cised, seeing that nothing had been hitherto done on the par t of Russia to prevent the aggression which had taken Ile ce :, while the political fermentation to which she is evidently stranger in Servia, Wallachia, and Moldavia, and her ceaseless efforts for the subjugation of Circassia by no means tend to re move the suspicions he may entertain as to the effect of her agency in Persia. • I mentioned to you in my last letter that the Turkish Gel vernment was concentrating an army in the neighbourhood °of Alonastir. Two regiments of foot, one of cavalry, and 00 artillery, have been marched from Constantinople ; and fou r regiments of foot and three of cavalry from Adrianople. Afe r ;. than twenty field-officers, aides-de-camp, &c., proceeded ! ~ few days ago by steamer to Salonica. Various surmises eso i; as to the object of this expedition. But though the ge rer o f belief be that these troops are intruded for the protection. Thessaly, which is menaced from the side of Greece with le: surrection and propagandism, I think also that the movemeol, i : not unconnected with the disturbances in Bosnia, and in 1 ".; country of the Montenegrins. Among the late appointtne e / at the Porte has been that of the Nafiz Pacha, ex-Ministque. Finance, who has just returned from exile, to a seat in the 'I" preme Council. He has, however, by order of the Sultl changed the name of Nafiz, which he had disgraced, to that °_, Abdourahman ; he is thus, like other convicts who return lre bi l transportation, furnished with a respectable alias, and sisal mistaken for an honest man under it.
