TO COVESPONDENTS. " An Old Traveller."—Twenty-one, and we believe such a circumstarbce as he refers to has not occurred for many years. We had given o':it for publiCation a letter respecting the illegality of deducting- the interest on dividends pre vious to tird .sth of April, but it has unfortunately been mislaid. As the Income-tax specifies that the tax was to commence from that date, we cannot see on whet ground the'authoritiem at the Bank levy it for the prneeding quarter. , THE WEA THE R..—N oox, JULY 20.

A curious correspondence has just been printed by order of the House of Commons. It is entitled, " Copy of a Letter addressed to the Earl of RIPON, by Messrs. B. Moons and . Co., of Liverpool, praying for leave • to import foreign sugars for agricultural purposes and for fattening cattle ; with the Reply of the Board of Trade to that appliCation." . These gentlemen inform his Lordship that sugar can be advantageously used for the purposes specified, inas much ar.3 it may now be obtained at from 13s. to 153. per cwt., or about three halfpence per lb. They further add, that they had just sold a cargo of 300 tons of Brazil sugar, of fair quality; at 14s. 6d. per cwt., and that they tendered to his Lordship another cargo of better quality about to arrive at Plymouth for 15i, per cwt. The President of the Board of Trade not being engaged in that line of business, of course rejected the offer, and the Privy Council to whom the subject was referred, directed their Secretary to acquaint the applicants that their Lordships could not recommend the adop- , tion of any such partial admission of foreign sugar. Of course, they never expected their Lordships would, but they have, nevertheless, done some service by brivging these important facts before the public. There it is proved that sugar of fair quality can be sold for one-fifth of the price that the half-starved poor of this country are now paying for it, so that, in order to keep up the incomes of West India pro- ' prietors who have already pocketed from the public purse twenty millions sterling, a tax of 400 per cent. is to be raised on one of the great necessaries of life. Sugar, next to bread, is the most important article of consumption at the table of a poor family ; bread too is heavily tatted, and tea another necessary is taxed 100 per cent. The upper and even the middling classes are littfle affected by these imposts. The load falls almost entirely on those least able to bear it ; and when it is known, though not perhaps by our rulers, that this unfortunate and hard-working class are robbed, in addition to this, from 50 to 100 per cent. by means of false weights, false measures, and not a little adulteration, the public need not wonder that cries of distress are heard in every cottage. Could such things be, if all who pay taxes had an in fluence, even in proportion to what they pay, in the making of our laws, and especially those laws which regulate the price of food ? Those who use false weights and false measures, and who thus disobey one of the great commandments, would then be com mitted to prison like felons, as they are ; the burden of taxation would be proportioned to the ability to pay; and even the rich themselves would find greater security than they find with all the protection of theyeethanry andthe.standingarmy, Let us hope, from the - answer of the Privy r Council, that better measures are in store, and as they cannot recommend a partial admission of sugar, that they look forward to the time when when it will be made general. European Go vernments aro laying additional duties on our pro duction's, and when the present treaty with Brazil ex pires the Government of that country, unless we change our system, will imitate the example. The Madrid' Journals of the 10th instant contain a report of a most extraordinary debate in the Senate, on the previous_ day, relative to the proposed commer cial treaty with England. The late President of the Council, M. MoxzaLliz-, having denied the assertion of Sir ROBERT PEEL in the House of Commons, that a commercial treaty was in course of negotiation, M. MAZLIANI, who conducted the negotiation with the British Ambassador, felt it due to his honour. to detail all the circumstances to the Senate, which he did in such a way as to cover the. late Xinister with infamy. He stated that at the end of December last the British Minister 'received from his .Govern ment proposals for a commercial treaty with Spain. They were read and approved by M. GoNzALEz, who waited upon M. MARLIANI, requesting him to conduct the negotiations, as the Minister himself had not time. M. MARLIANI did so, and prepared a report which filled 99 pages. He was, however, requested by M. GONV.LEZ to keep the whole affair a profound secret. The English Minister supplied the draught of a Treaty, upon which M. MARLIANI proposed fifteen amendments. In this state it was returned to England, where all the amendments were adopted. M. MARLIANI requested a Secretary to copy out his Report and Treaty, and the Minister, named Don HA JABAT. Yet when the Treaty was ready to be signed, M. GONZALEZ turned round and pretended that he knew nothing about it, and that it had no existence ! After this expose the new Minister, the Count ALMA novAR, rose, and said that he believed M. GoNzaLcz, as he Could:not find any papers about the Treaty in the, office of the Minister for Foreign Affairs. M. IN TAIITE, the ex-Home Minister, followed, and admitted that there was such a Treaty, bUt that it had been drawn up for the mere purpose of humbugging Eng land ! He thought M. MARLIANI might as well be writing reports 'about commercial treaties with Eng land as anything else, and • so his colleague set him to work to humbug Great Britain ! . The KING of the FItII*CII. must 1 - 13 one of the strongest-minded men in his dominions. So late as yesterday an Express from Paris informs us that his 31AaiesTy had resolved to open the new Chambers in persdn. The Regency Bill is already drawn up, and although M. TIMES' organ, the Constitutionnel, com plained on Monday of the precipitancy of Ministen, and darkly hinted that the little parodist of NAPO LEON intended to set up the Duchess of ORLEANS as Regent in the room of the Duke de NEMOURS, it was known yesterday that he had been persuaded to join the friends of the Duke. 3L TRIERS had arrived - at Neuilly on Sunday, and was at once admitted to the Royal presence. What arguments were employed to dissuade him from a course which would represent France as by no means agreed upon the Regency question, are of course unknown. Most likely they were strengthened by 'the prospect of M. Tutrts' appointment to fotne place in, the establishment of the Ileir-Spparent, and a speedy restoration to office. The Royal family of France continues in the ut most affliction. ',When the news of the death of the Puke of OrmtANs was communicated to the King and Queen of the BELGIANS, the cries of the QUEEN were heai'd throue;hout the Palace of Lacken. Their MAJESTIES arrived at six o'clock on Sunday evening at the Palace at Neuilly, and were received on alight ing by the King awl Queen of the FRENCH. They retired in tears to the Q,unEN's apartments, where they . remained till retiring to rest. Deeply do we pity the many trials of the poor Queen of the FnENCu. Her's, indeed, is a lot which the poorest of her subjects need not envy, and which nothing but a firm reliance upon the goodness and mercy of GOD could enable so affectionate a parent to sustain. , The'Regency question is tile of great difficulty. We now ,have it stated for the first time in the journals, that the Duke of NEMOURS is the least popular of the. French Princes, and that he has not the art of enchaining the affections of persons in close intimacy with him. On the other hand, the Duchess of OnLEANs is Ea,id to be a Princess of superior firm ness of mind, with all . the qualifications necessary for acquiring unbounded unpopularity. Here are the seeds of a world of fature intrigues, unless it should please Heaven to spa7e the life of Louis PHILIPPE till his grandson attain his majority. The late Duke has left a will, which has been read in the Council of Ministers. In it he recommends harmony among _ - his brothers, and speaks tenderly of his wife and children, whom he recommends to the protection of France. Would it not seem from this, that the Duke:qctually had a presentiment of his early death'? The will contains a clause, in which he reeommendo, that, in case of a Regency, the sceptre be entrusted to virile hands. This is an attestation, on the part of the late Duke, that he did not wish the Regency to be bestowed on the Duchess HILENA, to whom the education of her children will give ample employment. SUMMARY OF NEWS AND publtc eptivion. " Who runs way read." FOICZIGN. An extraordinary express from Paris brings news of yesterday's date. The King was to receive at the Tui leries, to-morrow, the condolence of the National Guard of Paris. The Regency question is much discussed in the Paris papeis of yesterday, and, incidentally the probable tone of the New Chamber of Deputies and the prospects of the Ministers. _ The King was still resolved to open the session in person. The King and Queen of the Belgians arrived at Neuilly on Sunday evening, at half-past six o'clock. Their Mu: jesties alighted at the Petit Chateau; and were received at the &or by the King, Queen, Duchess of Orleans, and the rest of the Royal family, to whom the mourn ful meeting was confined. Their Majesties conducted their august daughter into the chapel, and there re mained with her a . considerable time. • The (thole af flicted family then assembled in the Queen's apartments, and there remained till they all retir.d for the night. The Prince de joinville is now the only person wanting to complete the family meeting, and he is expected by the end of the month. This young Prince seems destined to receive the intelligence of disastrous events in his fa mily while at sea. It was at Brest roads that he learnt the death of his sister, the still deeply lamented Duchess of Wurtemberg. On the news of the Duke of Orleans' death M. Thiers quitted Vichy, where he was residing with his family. He arrived yesterday in Paris, and immediately repaired to Neuilly, , where he was received, says the Gourrier Francais. by the King. The Gbbe says—" - His Majesty, after the embalming of the body, and before the coffin was closed, asked the ' 'clergy to bless the remains of his. son, over which the Dean of the Chapter of St. Denis pronounced absolu tion. The mortal remains of the Prince were then car ried in procession to the chapel,, for the embalming had taken place in one of the apartments of the palace. The 'Queen was heard' to exclaim, with her eyes raised to heaven, •My God ! My God! The blow is not too great ; but is severe ; yes, it is severe I'" We find the following in the Constitutionnel :—" It appears certain from the autopsy that the Prince did not jump from the carriage, and an eye witness of the acci dent corroborates this opinion. M. Dubois-Deuzy, merchant, of the Pas-de-Calais, wha happened to be within six paces of the equipage, declares that he did not see the Duke of Orleans sprin g from the carriage, but, in a moment or two, saw the Prince stretched on the ground, with his sword between his legs. He imme diately raised up the Prince, whom he did not know, but two gendarmes soon rrrived, , and recognised the heir to the throne." The Presse says, in allusion to the will of the Duke of Orleans :—" We can add, that in one of the clauses, the Prince, whilst giving fitting praise to the elevation of character and superiority of mind which distinguish the Princess Helena, speaks in express terms of the necessity, in case of a minority, of not entrusting the regency except to virile hands, able to support the weight of State affairs in grave conjunctures, and to de fend the independence of the institutions and liberties of the country. We believe we can state that, before it was known that such was the wish of the lamented Prince, the same opinion had been voluntarily expressed by his august widow." The French Opposition Journals do not agree as to the way in which the news of the death of the Duke of Orleans has been noticed by the English Journals. The Courrier, honestly and generously laying aside all anti- English feeling in respect for truth, says—" They (the English Journals) are unanimous in expressing their regret with the utmost propriety and sincerity." The Siecle admits that regret is expressed, but, with an utter want of candour and good feeling; says it is because the English fear that the calamity which has occurred will induce the French nation to choose another Ministry, and become stronger by putting an end to domestic dissensions. Madrid correspondence of the 10th inst. states, that letters had been received in that capital from Barcelona, announcing that the man shot as the rebel chief Felipe was not Felipe, and that General Van Halen's despatch was premature as to the point of identity. The Journal do Frankfort states that the fire at Leuchtenberg, on the sth inst., which we have already noticed, was the work of incendiaries whilst the inha bitants were asleep, and that, owing to the want of water, they were unable, when roused from their beds by this calamity, to save more than a dozen houses from the flames. Three persons were burnt to death, end several were .very much injured. The inhabitants were on the following day wandering about destitute of shelter, and many of them nearly naked. The St. Petersburgh journals of the sth inst. an nounce the recal of M. Perier, who is said to be dis liked by the Emperor, and they mention the fact as a proof of the desire of the French Government to be on good terms with that of Russia. It is said, however, that in order that the recal of M. Perier may not ap- pear to arise from any dissatisfaction at his con - duct, the business of the legation will be for the present carried on by M. Andre, the first Secretary. PARVICAMENT.A..I2.Ir. The House night till ten o•clocl: Besides receiving several petitions against the Collieries Bill, including one from females employed in mines in Scotland, repudiating Lord Ashley's benevolence, it was chiefly employed in discussing the Drainage (Ireland) Bill in a Committee, which passed through that stage after a division. The re-committal of the Collieries Bill, which stood for last night, was postponed till Monday, and it seems now very unlikely that it should pass this session. The Commons were employed the greater part of the evening with the Poor-law Amendment Bill. Mr. Sharman Crawford's amendment, to give the Irish Poor law Commissioners power to grant out-door relief, and Mr. Fielden's amendment, that the Bill be no further proceeded with till a full inquiry has been made into the effects of the law on the condition of the working classes, were both lost by large majorities. A great number of the clauses of the Bill were struck out by the Ministers, and the remainder were assented to, after some oppo sition and some divisions. The House afterwards dis cussed the Australia Bill in Committee, and ad journed at Two . o'Clock. PUBLIC OPINION. _ The Times accuses the Government of a breach of faith as regards its conduct on the New Poor-laws : " It will be seen by our Parliamentary report that Sir James Graham has acted, as we always predicted he would, and has postponed the leading provisions of the 6 Poor-law Amendment Bill ' till another session. Avowing that his main object was to secure the con tinuance of the Commission for fire years, he has been content to carry through those clauses which regulate the niiinber of Assistant-Commissioners, the mode of issuing notices, &c., and some other matters of technical detail ; and this he found no - difficulty in doing last night. Lcoking back upon the manner in which the present Bill (or shall we call it the late Bill ?) has been introduced, presented, and now finally withdrawn, we can scarcely acquit the Government of some thing very like a breach of good faith. When they assumed office in the autumn of last year, we were most solemnly promised that they would devote the interval then to elapse before the ninting of Parliament for dispatch of business, to a variety or pur poses, one (and not the least prominent) of which was the: solemn and serious reconsideration of every part of the Neiv Poor-law, with a view to immediate legisla . Lion. Everything which has fallen from the lime Secretary during the present session, as well as their whole manner of proceeding, convinces us that this pledge was insincerely given, — and that it has never been redeemed. They have not looked at any part of the subject, except with the eyes of the Poor-law Com- Commissioners. They have not thought of legislating immediately on any part of the subject, except for the' prolongation of the power of the .Poor-law Commis sioners. At the commencement of the session they gave the strongest possible proof that they had taken no pains to mature, and did not mean to take any pains to pass, any comprehensive or satisfactory measure; foP the topic was passed over in absolute silence in the Qicen's speech." - The Herald says—" The late Government was driven out of office by the obloquy attached to its deeds, and the present Government may soon be deprived of power by the consequences efthe acts of its predecessors. The frUe-trade agitation has been the bass accompaniment of the whispers of Downing-street. It has been sounded byi the one party to drown a nation's reason, and it has bon partially adopted by the other party as a means to paY for the measures that had thrust forth its opponents from power. This phantom will soon have played its part, and then some new toy will be requisite for the public fancy—some new idealess proposition, to account for things not understood. There is then a chance, be ore some new f o lly i s t a k en u p, th a t th e p u bli c way wi. dness may turn, and dir e ct it s elf t o spur real into re. tv. In that case Members of Parliament will find it as interesting to study international law as they now do to stupify themselves over dry tables of statistics—they will then take to treaties with as much zest as to tariffs, and find as agreeable a field of declamation in the wrongs and dishonour of their country as in the perpetration of crime, in the submission to injustice, in the overthrow of the i Constitution by -*the interference with es t a bli s h e d for and organic statutai." We take the following from the Chronicle :____4, Sir R. Peel has promised Sir Robert Inglis that he will employ himself during the recess in seriously considering the suliject of Church Extension, and preparing a Govern pation ofleistire fo r meta plan filr at least its partial aceemplishment. w e our notions of the e in oi i t ,( g i i r t : L i t ti u o l n a t the upon pol, Premier spiritt o d jt n i e l n i . i s anticipation general condition of the country, it might have been feated that topics of a more temporal description would have a prior claim upon his thoughts. All statesmen are not so gifted with the power of abstraction as that they can be considering for the good of souls while multitudes are famishing fur want of food. The state of the country as to food, was, it is true, the subje_ t of Sir Robert Peel's consideration during the last recess. He may think it fair that soul and body should take turns in the cart of his mighty mind. But his effort, in temporals, 11,4 not been so successful as to warrant his discharging himself of the subject. His one year of power leaves. the reople worse off than it found . them. To think of !i.e. Church he must stop his ears to the continuous wail of dis!ress. Parliamentary' debates er Anti-Corn-law conferences may no longer force it upon him ; but as yet :here is no prospect of its abatement. One of the lust • pledges that ruined tradesmen and starving workpeople would require of him, r,t ! ie close of the session, is, that of considering the extent of a Parliamentary grant for , the building and endowment of new churches." The following appears in the - Post :—" We congratu u-, ' i late _the. people_of_England_on_the.prospect,_ that the.des titution of the means of sound religious instruction. I which has so long been the greatest opprobrium and the most fearful disease of the laud, is soon to be removed, or materially abated. For this unspeakable blessing th© nation will be indebted, under Providence. to the pious zeal and unwearied perseverance of Sir It. Inglis in the tirst place, and in the second to the advantage for which it has struggled for so many years, until at length suc cess has crowned its efforts, of posSessing an Administra tion strong enough to brave the resistance of sectarians and infidels, and wise and conscientious enough to iden tify itself with the Church of England. The necessity of some great national exertion, of the kind indicated by the language of Sir R. Peel . on Monday night, in the Elouse of Commons, is adthitted by all who do not avowedly withhold that confession, either froth contempt for religion, or from hostility to the national religious establishment."

Tuesday's Paris news is, that M. Thiers has per suaded his friends and the Opposition to give up the idea of supporting the Duchess of Orleans against the Duke of Nemours. The latter, therefore, will be appointed Regent without opposition. The strike of the Madrid printers still left the press a blank. Scnhor Gonzales continued his equivoca tions in the Congress on the 12th, respecting the treaty spoken of by M. Marliani. The Russian corps of General Grabbe has been de feat:d by the Circassians with a loss of 1,500 men and 25 officers, but the artillery was saved. The funds were rather depressed before the hour 'of business on the Bourse.

IN RE Slit JOIIN MILLEY LOYLE. This day having been fixed for the further hearing of this matter, which has been already reported at length in The Sun, it was announced that the insolvent bad come to an arrange ment with his detaining creditor a few days ago, and was now out of nu,tody. Although the debts and liabilities in the schedule amounted to an immense sum, the further proceedings under the present petition are thus at an end. POLICE INTELLIG ENC E. 111ARLBOROUGH.STREET. (THIS DAY.) Mary Ann Anderson, a 3 oung married female, was charged with attempting to murder an af,eci female named Airs. Ryan, and a young woman, named Sarah lll(Ca.rty, by beating them over the head with a brick-hat. It. appeared that the cool plaining parties had circulated a report amongst the inhabitants of Dudley-court, High-street, St Giles's, where the prisoner lives, that she had " served" a month at the mill at Brixton, for uttering counterfeit money, and tat the pri soner in return wa y laid them as they wore walking tegether in 111onmouth-str ee t, St. Giles's, and;having armed herself with a heavy brickbat, she commenced a furious attack upon them and with that formidable weapon inflicted on the head of Ryan six severe blows, each of which cut through the scalp completely to the skull. Al‘Carthy was also desperately ill-treated. The clothes of both of them were soaked through with hloo4. The pftlice coming up prevented the prisoner from inflicting flintier violence ; but it was not until after a mo,t desperate and protracted struggle that she was overpowered, and conveyed to the station-house. The prisoner contented herself with merely denying the charge, and was fined 3W., or six weeks' imprisonment, for each assault. UNION HALL.—(THIS DAY.) James Moor was brought before :11r. Cottingham, charged with committing a violent assault upon Ja ne hi s w if e. It appeared that on the prec - edirig afternoon the defendant and his wife haring bad high words, to escape from hi s venge ance she ran to Pickle Herring - stairs , and preferred th e a : ter - natire of legthro herself into the Thames. The d e f endant, on perceiving his wife approach the river , ran after her, an d when she was extricated from her p erilous situation, and brought ashcro, the husband, instead of exhibitin g any compuncti ous feeling for his conduct on the occasion, rushed towards her, and striking her a severe blow on the face, accompanied it with the heartless expression, " that she had better go back and drown herself." So= of the bystanders who witnessed the outrage gave the fellow into custody. Mr. Corrimcitam said that it was a case of two seriou s a nature fur him to decide 'summarily—a 5/. conviction was so inadequate a punishment for such an ffence. He therefore committed the prisoner for trial. TIE STJN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY '2O l 184 VIONEY-Tnanz-coiviramtcm.

A speaker at a recent meeting observed, against those who said machinery was the, cause of distress, that lie sincerely deplored the system of the Luddites, which would destroy machinery. Would it be wiBe to break up the railroads, and go back to the pack-horse—to dis pense .with all the splendid efforts of genius ? It was false to say that machinery was the cause of misery. It was stated by a Chartist, at a recent meeting, to show the inadequacy of Sir Robert Peel's begging•box (the charity subscription) as a means of relief for the people, that all they could get throughout England was 100,0001.. which would not procure food for one week for the starving. The news of the melancholy death of the Duke of Orleans was published nearly as early in London as in Paris. the sad occurrence appearing simultaneously in the Thursday's papers of both capitals—a proof of the rapidity with which intelligence , is conveyed from one part of the world to the other. By an Act of Parliament. dated 1664, and the 16th of Charles the Second, the Cooks' Company, in the City of London, are privileged from serving on juries ; it was acted upon a day or two ago before Mr. Payne, the City Coroner.

MATtRIAGE TN HIGH LIFE.—The nuptials of the Fail of BeCtive, eldest son of the Marquis of Ileadfort, with MisS . Thompson, daughter of Alderman Thompson, M.P. was solemn zed in St. James's Church this morning, in the presence of his Grace the Duke of Wellington, the Duke and Duchess of Leinster, the Marquis of Heath:or', and a numerous party of the nobility and gentry connected with both families. n inquest was held yesterday before Mr. Baker, at the Gunmakers' Aries„ -Mile-end Old-town, on the body of Charles Godfrey, aged ten y ears. From the evidence addu ce d i t ap p eare d that on Alondny forenoon deceased. together with several other boys, went into a pond on noweornmon for tho purpose of bathing. He had not been in the water more than five minutes ii hen the cramp seized him, and finding he was sinking, he clung to one of hi s com p an ions who was nea r him, for the purpose -of s av in g himself. They both went under the water together ; mid on their making their appear ance.on the surii!ce, a boy named John Nutter, who was standing on the . bank, jumped into the water, and managed to rescue the poor lad deceased had laid hold of, and accordingly saved his life. Deceased then went down, and his body was recovered in half an hour, quite dead. Verdict, "'Accidentally Drowned." THE ANTI-CORN-LAW CONFERENCE. (THIS DAY.) The Delegates met again this morning at Twelve o'Clock, at Herbert's (late Brown's) Hotel, Palace-yard, William Shuttleworth, Esq., of Manchester, in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN stated that the absence that morning of their former Chairman, Mr. P. A. Taylor, was Owing to the circumstance of his being actively engaged in pre paring for the afternoon meeting, which was to take place between the Delegates and the Merchants and Bankers of the Metropolis. He was happy to ittfuriu them that their cause was progressing, That was evi denced by the feeling created among their legis lators, who but a short time since were in different to their meetings. He might mention as a proof of the increasing interest felt in their proceedings throughout the country, the meetings which had just been held in various towns, and especially in Liverpool, Manchester, Salford, Coventry, and Leeds. He was also happy to be able to say that Mr. Alderman Brooks, or Manchester, and L. licyworth, Esq., of Liverpool, heel returned to the metropolis to join in their deliberations ; and that Alderman Chappel, of Manchester ; Holland Motile, of Salford ; the Mayor of Leeds, and other new Delegates had just arrived.—(Hear, hear.) Their pro ceedings would commence with the reading of a portion of the correspondence which poured in upon them from all parts of the kingdom. Mr. S. SMITH then read the following letters, or ex tracts' from letters Chorley, Lancashire, July 18, 1842. The limits of a single letter are insufficient. to convey an adequate representation of the intensity of distress which is prevalent, in this neighbourhood. Previous to the adoption of the Poor-law Alteration Act, the ()veneer of this township might. easily have answered and disposed of the weekly appli cants for parochial relief in two, or at most three, hours in one day ; now, however, with the eddition of four or five country townships of small extent, two active men might be kept ex.. tremely busy in attending such applications twelve hours on every day in the week. Within the preceding six weeks the number of applicants has more than doubled. The crowds of paupers who arc in daily, nay nightly, attendance at the overseers' office is surprising to witness. I believe that I have seen a greater number of beggars and paupers last week, than if I bad traversed the entire king- Om of France, and more poignant anguish in their looks than if I had made a tour of Ireand I could have observed in that country. Is any improvement expected? you will natu • rally ask, and I have asked the same question a thousand times, and of all classes of people. Only wait until the winter sets in, ' and finds us in this state, and you will see the consequences, is the reply,—it is mine too. The working classes owe a debt of gratitude to the members of the Anti. Corn-law League which they can never repay, andthey are beginning to perceive their obligations to your body. It will give me. great pleasure to be enabled to join you in a few days, and I am, Sir, your obedient servant. N.B. While writing this letter. the overseers' office is at tended by several scores of able-bodied men from the country, waiting for relief, though the farmers are in the midst of the hay harvest. FROM ONE OF THE MOST EMINENT MANUFACTURERS OF' CLOTH IN THE WEST OF ENGLAND. Westbury, Wilts, July 19. . . Sir,—l beg to inform you that at a meeting of a few friends of our great cause, held this morning, it was decided that should proceed to London on Thursd ay next, I expect as a Deputy from the manufacturers, and perhaps the shopkeepers of Westbury. I remain, yours very truly. Mr. P. A. Taylor. NATH. OVERBURY. he following Is the present state of that agricultural dis trict which boasts of Sir James Graham as its principal landed proprietor Longtown, July 18, 1842. Sir,—l am sorry to say that there is no improvement in trade in this district—nay, that matters are getting worse, both as respects the manufacturing and agricultural labourers. The condition of the latter is much worse than it was last year, males in many instances being glad to work at field labour at a woman's wage, 10d. per day. There is scarcely a diversity of opinion in this part of the country respecting the cause of the unprecedented distress of the country. It ►s ascribed with almost one voice to that iniquitous and barefacedly selfish piece of legislation, the Corn law, and other restrictions on our trade and commerce. This opinion is now participated in by many farmers, who hesitate not to express their decided conviction, that the Corn-law is as in jurious to them as to the rest of the community, and that their trade (for what is it else but a trade) will continue to be, what in fact it has hitherto been, nothing but a hazardous and gain. bling speculation, till the Corn-law be swept from the statute book. 1 can assure you, Sir, and I believe I speak the sentiments of nine-tenths of the population here, that we highly appre ciate, and feel deeply grateful for the labours of the " League " in this righteous cause. We repose implicit confidence in their wisdom, honesty, and talent, and it shall be our fervent prayer that, thi ough their instrumentality, our suffering country may be raised to her former comfort, happiness, and content ; and that they may thus entitle themselves to the lasting gratitude of a long insulted, oppressed, patient, but never an ungrateful people. FROM PETER RYLAND, ESQ., WARRINGTON. Be assured we, in the country, are watching your proceed. ings with the deepest interest, and the conduct at the I)eputa• tion deserves success, whatever it may accomplish. Wicker Iron Works, Sheffield, Seventh Month, 19, 1842, Respected Friend, John Bright,-1 have been hoping from day to day that 1 might be set at liberty to join you in London. I am concerned to find that there now seems to be little proba bility of my doing so. Not that I could have rendered you any service, but my heart is in the cause, and I would prove this by my presence among you. Much need is there for some one to work ; the clouds are fast gathering; every day a deeper and deeper gloom settles upon us here. More men are discharged every week. The poor-rates are becoming heavier ; more houses empty ; less rent paid. Less and less employment for our mills ; has re turns for our shopkeepers; and more suffering amongst our starving unemployed workmen. In the midst of all this discouragement, my heart was re joiced the last week by the noble conduct of the Earl of Uadnor, who, not satisfied with that cheap pity which spends itself in idle words—not placing in contrast professions of sym pathy and deeds of no relief—most handsomely remitted to me for our distressed poor, the sum of 251. May this unsolicited evidence of real feeling he made known to the remotest corner of the empire ; and, be it remembered, that we have no connection or especial claim, beyond the com mon plea of suffering humanity, to urge on this patriotic 'Nobleman. Now, allow me to advert to another topic. I heard with regret some intimation that, if our appeal were not listened to, there would be nothing left but to dissolve the League, and let matters take their course. Entertain not such an idea for a moment ; the League must last as long as the Corn-law ; our principle is founded upon a rock; all laws to make food dear are impolitic, immoral, and unjust ; ar.d, so long as a law for starving the country remains on the statute book we will never hold our peace—never ! Our eyes are now opened, and work we must to put - down this iniquity. It is matter of conscience as well as our interest. Let it be clearly understood that it shall be the last ques tion mooted in Parliament whilst it continues its sittings ; and if no relief be granted, the first—the incessant topic—awaiting its re-assembling. Lecturers must again carry the question undaunted into every hamlet. The provincial Press will re echo the subject in a never•dying agitation through every large town, and " No Landlord's Tax, no Famine Prices !' must be our watchword. " Protection !" Surely a more bitter mockery cannot exist than a law " protecting" the people against being fed—" pro tecting" them against buying their sugar too cheap—" protect ting" them against having too much meat or too much coffee. No ; the " protection" is not for the many but the few, that they may put their hand into their neighbour's purse, and be protected against the consequences. Be not disheartened by any temporary failure—success is sure ; it is but a question of time. Never did I led more per fect confidence than that this oppressive law must give way. The eyes of the country are upon you. Ignorance on this topic is yet to be found amongst honest men ; but every day . of your meeting is fast dispelling it. When the news of your in terview with Sir Robert Peel arrived, a large assemblage of our workpeople was waiting in the streets to hear the result ; and a bystander would not have inquired whether they were careless spectators. But there is a fearful and hourly increasing responsibility resting on those who are keeping the country in its present alarming state. There is an infatuation in thus trilling with the comfort and actual existence of tens of thousands, which I cannot comprehend. Ruin is advancing with fearful strides. The once well-furnished houses of our artisans arc being stripped of their furniture • for the condition of a pauper is very galling to our Sheffield people, and they will nearly famish before they will ask relief. "It is long," said a clever and industrious cutler to me the other day, as I noticed his well• mended clothes, but sunken, haggard features," it is long since I had enough to eat, but I cannot go to the parish," and his eyes filled with tears, and his face trembled with emotion." Capital is wasting away, and I cannot forget that winter will soon be here I need say no more. Thy friend and fellow labourer, EDWARD Batley, July 14, 1842. . - Honoured Sir,—We have watched your unceasing efforts, and thanks for them, trusting you will continue them until the trade of our common country is free from its letters, which will Cause every industrious man to have sufficient to eat. I remain, Sir, your obedient and humble servant, C. H. GREENWOOD, Secretary. P. A. Taylor, Esq., Brown's Hotel, London. ST A STISTICS. Showing the state of trade in the village of Batley, together with the amount of poor-rates paid in the union, from the year 1839, to the year 1842, inclusive:— In maintenance. Out-door relief.

'Sir,—ln consequence of the silly statements of 'Bir Robert Peel and Sir James Graham, that machinery is the cause of the present alarming distress, I would humbly submit that it would be v ell that all trades not affected by machinery should imme diately make a statement to you of their situation, that their vsertions may be contradicted by well attested facts. My trade is that of a ladies' hoot and shoemaker, and I have been for the last 40 years engaged as a manufacturer, employing a great number of hamis, male and female ; and, until the last few years, a steady industrious shoemaker could earn f"om two to too pounds ten per week; and a woman employed at bind ing from twelve to fifteen shillings per week; but such is the operation of these infernal Corn-laws, that Lon don has not only lost its export trade, which was, in my recollection, immense, but its country trade also, which in a variety of ways was very considerable; and what is the con . - sequence? the poor men now must work hard to earn from nine to twelve shiliit gs per week, and the women from one shilling and ninepenee, to three shillings ; with a drawback of one shilling on the men for grindery, and on the women, sixpence for silk and thread; and I speak carefully, for I have read nearly all the accounts transmitted to you from the country. I could lead you to as much distress amongst the shoemakers in London as exists amongst t he operatives in cotton in the country. Now, Sir, let it be remeinbcred this is a trade in which ma chinery has never yetheen brought to bear, and yet its dis tresses are as great as any trade whe*ritichinery has had pre eminent power. Mr. SIDNEY SMITH observed that under the new tariff foreign boots and shoes would be largely im ported into this country, and yet the boot and shoe makers, whose trade would be thus injured, would still be compelled to pay a high protective duty to the land owner, for whose benefit the Corn-laws were maintained. There was an instance of the justice which emanated from a landlord's Parliament. Mr. LAURENCE HEYWORTH, of Liverpool, here pro ceeded to address the meeting. He had, he mid, just returned from Liverpool, where, on Monday last, a most numerous and respectable meet ing was held to take into consideration the now existing distress, and also to move resolutions expressive of their opinions as to the best means of remedy ing the evil. The meeting also had. in contem plation an adoption of a memorial to her Maje:ay, stating the existence of the distress, and their opinion as to the remedy requisite to be adopted for its removal. He was happy to have to mention that the greatest unanimity prevailed in that large assembly as to the cause of the distress now prevalent through all parts of the kingdom, which they were convinced arose from the restrictive provision and commercial laws which cramp the energies of the industrious. Ile would, without any further observations, read to the meetkg a document in which were forcibly put forward all the arguments that bore on the question. (The meeting had not concluded when we went to press.) THE MAIIKETS.-(THIS DAY). CORN EXCHANGE. There have been moderate arrivals of English Grain since Monday, but another large arrival of Foreign NVhcat and Oats. The trade was very dull for every article at Monday's prices. Flour met a slow sale. COLONIAL MARKET. The prices of produce were firm, and a good business was done. The demand for West India Sugar was steady. and about 500 Mids. and tres. ware sold at full prices —brown 565. to 605.,. yellow 60s. 6d. to 655., and fine 665. to 6Ns. 6d. per cwt. White Bengal is inquired after, and sales made at former prices—mid. to good 665. to 675. fid., and tine 68s. to 70s. per cwt. Mauritius steady. In the Coffee Market no new feature has occurred—good ord. Ceylon 73s to 765. 6d. per cwt. P, denumd for West India Cocoa continues dull, and pikes arc declining; 395. to 40s. per cwt. for Trinidad. Rice in de mand and prices firm, at 10s. to I Is. 6d. for white. TEA MARKET. Since the eoncluiion of the large public sales, the market his exhibited a much firmer tone, and several of the breaks bought in have been told at extreme prices. The Lou est point of the market for low sound Congou was Is. 81d. per lb., and Twankay of every quality Is. i ld. per lb. The deliveries still very large ; nearly equal to half a million lbs. per week. • TALLOW MARKET. This market was very dull, and prices still nominal, or 48s. fur fine quality on the spot, and at 495. for delivery in the last three months of the year. EXTRAORDINARY PROCEEDING Monday night last between 40 and 50 able-bodied paupers, in a filthy and ragged condition, from various parts of the country, besieged Islington Workhouse and 'demanded relief and admission, saying that they were exhausted through starvation; they had sought after work without success, and they could proceed no further. Crowds of persons assembled around them and were loud in their exclamations against the parish officers for not admitting them immediately, and it was much feared that the result would be violence and outrage. A com munication, however, having been made to Mr. Ashley, the relieving overseer, ho came and furnished them with an order 14 food and beds for the night, and they were admitted as casual poor. They were, as is customary, ordered into the bath to cleanse themselves, which some of them quietly submitted to, whilst others resisted and behaved themselves in a most refractory manner, and it was evidently their intentio❑ to intimidate the parish officers and to commit outrage, if not plunder, and it was with considerable difficulty that they were made to go to their beds. One stout ruffianly-looking fellow, named Baines, who described himself as a labourer out orwork from Brentwood, kept the house in a continual uproar during the whole of the night by his bawling, swearing, and abusing the officers. Yesterday morning when the proper officer repaired to their wards to give them notice to quit the house, he found several of them sitting on their beds in a complete state of nudity, they having torn their old and tattered garments to pieces for the purpose of being kept in the workhouse or being provided with fresh clothes. It was found necessary to call in a body of the police, with whose assistance the unruly gang were ejected, with the excep tion of the ringleaders and those who had torn their apparel, and they being supplied with a workhouse suit, were taken into custody and charged at the station house. Yesterday morning they were taken to Clerken well Police Court and charged before Mr. Combe, when the parish officers attended and gave evidence against them. The prisoners in their defence said, that they had come from various parts of the country in search of work, and they met accidentally and formed themselves into a body, for the purpose of demanding anal insisting upon being relieved by the parishes through which they passed. The party charged with destroying their clothes did not deny the fact, saying that they were in so filthy and ragged a state that no one would employ them, and they devised that plan to get fresh clothes. Mr. Combo committed the prisoners to the House of Correction, with hard labour for 21 days each, which sentence they re ceived with perfect indifference. ST. KATHARINE DOCKS. Yesterday the half-yearly meeting of the Proprietors of the St. Katharine Docks was held at their house, Tower-hill, for the purpose of declaring a dividend, and other affairs ; Thomas Tooke, Esq. in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN remarked, upon opening the purposes of the meeting, that the financial accounts were, accord ing to the Dock Act, produced at the January meeting, and not at that of July, the chief object of the present assemblage of the Proprietors being the declaration of a dividend for the half-year, and to ballot for twenty-one Directors for the year ensuing. He would read the re turn of the shipping which entered the port of London, with cargoes, during the six months ended the sth of July instant ; it was as follows : Return of the Number of Ships, and the Tonnage, entered the Port of London, with Cargoes, during the six months ended the sth of July, in the years 1841 and 1842.

The landings, and the stock of goods in the warehouses, had also been augmented, and the Directors had been enabled to increase the rest, or surplus balance, carried forward on the first of the present month. Under these gratifying circumstances, therefore, the Directors had to propose to the Proprietors, that a dividend should be declared of 2i- per cent. on the capital stock of the Company, for the half-year ended the 30th June last ; and they also submitted to their approval, that the amount of income-tax, chargeable upon the dividends coming to the Proprietors, should be defrayed by the Company. Resolutions were unanimously passed, in accordance with the above recr , mmendations of the Directors; and after some remarks from a Proprietor, on the satisfactory management of their interests, and the favourable results, as exhibited in the expose that had been made, Thanks were unanimously voted to the Chairman and the rest of the Directors, for their continued zeal and exertions, the ballot was taken, and the meeting ad journed. FRIGHTFUL ACCITIENT.—BRIGHTON, JULY 19. This morning as a fly-driver, named Wood, , was proc'ectlit , down Bedford-street to the stand on the Marine-parade, will; his hor:e and fly, the animal took fright, and ran at a furious rate down the street, and after crossing the Marine-parade, he leaped the rails at the brink of the cliff, and was su , pended in mid air over a precipice at least 89 feet in depth. Unfortu nately the poor fly-driver was thrown headlong over the rails to the beach below, and was shockingly mutilated. The acci pent was observed by several persons, who lost no time in re. moving the poor man to the Sussex County Hospital. He was perfectly insensible, and died in about three-quarters of an hour after his admissicn to the hospital. He has left a widow and family to deplore his loss. Some difficulty was experienced in releasing the horse, but at length ropes were fastened round his body, and he was let down gently to the base of the cliff, without sustaining any injury. ELOPEMENT IN lIIGH LIFE.—The following case of elopement has caused no small degree of excitement in some, of the fashionable circles of society at the West end. The fasts of the affair are briefly these:—On Monday morning last, about seven o'clock, a young lady, of great personal attractions, and between eighteen and nineteen years of age, the daughter of a wealthy Ba ronet,residing in Portland-place, was suddenly missed from the mansion, airA it was immediately discovered tkit she had taken with her the whole of her jewellery, which was of considerable value. Every possible inquiry was promptly instituted, with a view of finding nut the retreat of the fair fugitive, but no tidings could be gained respecting her by any of those members of the family whose anxious solicitude for her welfare prompted thesis to be on the alert. The "mystery," however, was in the course of a few hours cleared up by the arrival of the lady, who returned to h er parental risof (which she had so unceremoniously fled, from) in a handsome car ri9ge, and by her side was seated a dashing young Irish gentleman of fortune, to whom she had on the same morning been united in bonds indissoluble at a church not far distant. The "happy couple" alighted, and en tered the dwelling, when the lady acquainted papa with the fact that she was married, and that she and her hes band were about to quit London for the Emerald Isle. Whether a reconciliation took place beti'veen the Baronet and his daughter we are unable to say with any degree of certainty ; but we believe that the " error" has been forgiven. HOW TO GET RID OF THE BAILIFFS.—At a public house, a short distance from Bed Lion-square, some rent, it appears, was due from a former tenant. The pre: ent occupier, ignorant of that circumstance, took possession, and has materially improved the business and premises. A few days since a levy was made for the back rent, and a man left in possession, and who was yesterday morning requested by the occupier to step to the door and witness the awful situation of the roof ( f the house. No sooner had he reached the threshold than he was pushed from behind into the street, and the door closed aga'nst him. The shutters were immediately put up, and all ft rther business sus pended. The hi oker's man immedit tely repaired to the station-house, to claim the assistance of the police, but he was informed no assistance could be given to him ; he remained some time in front of the house, but as the story got wind the jeers and gibes of the assembled crowd compelled him to retire. IRELAND. (From the S ipo Champion of Saturday.): ILLNESS OF JUDGE TORRENS. Judge Torrens has been in a very enfe bled state since his errival here, with a severe attack of gout. On Wednesday he merely opened the commission, and on Thursday he did not enter Court until eleven o'clock ; and during the course of the day lie remained in a recumbent position, evidently suffe ing under acute pain. On Friday his Lordship was unab'e to leave his room, and consequently the Crown business could not be proceeded with. A second edition of the same paper conta'ns the following SATURDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCE.—His Lordship has not as yet entered Court, nor do we believe h:s will sit to-day- Baron Lefroy has just adjourned the Record Court, for the purrose of trying the criminal lusiness." There are rumours in town to-day that the claims of Arch deacon Packenham (brother-in-law of the Duke of Welling ton) are to be postponed to another opportunity, and that Archdeacon Torrens (brother of the Judge) is to obtain the vacant see of Meath. It is also reported that Judge Torrens at once retires, thus giving to the Government the patronage of another place on the bench. In a Cervervative journal, published this morning ( Same ders's News Letter) is the following extraordinary paragrael: -- " Sligo, July 15.—( Extract of a private letter.) —It is rumoured here that Archdeacon Torrens will be 'the new Bishop, Judge Torrens retiring to make room for Sergeant Warren, so as to avoid the difficulties which Sir Edward Sugden might raise." It is well known that Sir Edward Sugden's objections appll to Mr. Jackson, the Solicitor-General; but, if there were two vacant Judge:hips, one of which was conferred on Sergeant Warren, Sir atward's hostility might be appeased. EXTRAORDINARY TROTTING MATCH. Yesterday afternoon a number of the sporting world as sembled at the extensive enclosure attached to the Rosemser Branch Tavern, for the purpose of witnessing an extraordin ar y match—a grey pony, twelve hands and a half high, the 1 1 7 pert'y of Mr. Burke, a gentleman well known on the t urf ' being backed for LW. to trot fourteen miles within sn hour' with a monkey for its rider. The novelty of the affair tracted, in addition to the betting men and cognoscenti in borselle , h, an immense assemblr.ge of spectators, Secluding le . venal ladies resident in the neighbourhood its their equiptgeP The monkey of course was the " lion" of the day, and, *cone ing to the conditions of the match, he was to be booted , spurred, and etherwi-te attired after the fashion of the jock i k . es at Epsom or :Newmarket, and was to ride the pony in s _;;;; usual style, with saddle and bridle. The monkey origir mu selected for the undertaking is the property of a foreigne r ' but in consequence of his making an attack on the owne r ' and wounding him with his teeth iev'ercly on the arm, it °a l deemed prudent by Mr. Burke to obtain a substitute , 21 '" with that view Mr, Batty, the celebrated equestrian manages' was applied to for a loan of ane of his trained monlgerj and that gentleman selected " Signor Jocko," who h ad already earned considerable reputation by his performan ces in the circle at the Surrey and other metropolitan and l' lra ; vincial theatres. At the appointed time the t• Sitgu„ e made his appearance, attended by one of the roup , r riders belonging to 31r. Batty's establishment. He gas dressed ala Chifney, or Scott, his jacket and buckskins het built by a first-rate west-end schneider, and his top , b° ° : would have done honour even to the renowned Hoby- 1 1 „ - colours he sported were red and white, and in his right pa r he carried a handsome riding whip, and also wore a pair . a 'small spurs buckled round his boots. The pony Ile 11 mounted on is a very fast trotter, but notwithstandingl i performances, time was in this instance backed at After the arrangement of the usual preliminaries the start too place, Mr. Burke, and a gentleman, the friend of the p ety ir' n ; had taken the bet, cantering on each side of the pony, with L or two others gallopping in the rear. He performed the tamer , in 56 minutes and 53 seconds of the given time s c m „t quently having 3 minutes and 7 seconds to spare, and vr ,011 7 1 , at all distressed. The Signor rode in first-rate style, canl42o with his whip iti s his mouth, and appeared quite conscious of own merits as an equestrian. It is said that this feat is tine . ralleled in the annals of the turf. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

THE NEW COINAGE.—It being publicly ko. o that the Bank of England was issuing the new silver coiuGc b y the demand at the Bullion-office on Friday and Saturd a y tradespeople was greater than has been known for 01 ;t L a o s t years, which proVes the great scarcity there is threogy the „ t tto metropolis of small coinage. In consequence of di de ids having been in course of payment since the in ~ the run upon the Bank for silver has been very g u rc ee e and notwithstanding that upwards of 300,0001. has struet at the Royal Mint of half-crowns, shil:ings, and the pencns since the issuing of the Royal proclamation of, ,or t 3d of June on the light gold coinage, there is yet a ver)' ' 1 )0 0 supply of silver currency, as a very considerable qua ntity 0 , be,.,“ .ent into the country to the branch banks in the I, ' a n ,, lecturing and agricultural districts, where it is r n'y e atly i r t - , quired at the present moment as the harvest approac hes. employes at the Mint are daily at work in providing the as quickly as they can with silver specie, the quantity o f sovereigns and half-sovereigns being sufficient for the demand.
