REPRESENTATION OF LEEDS. We mentioned in our last that Mr. T. B. Ma caulay was considered by many influential and jodi cious persons in this town as eminently qualified to rvresent the borough of Leeds in the Reformed Parliament, along with our esteemed townsman, Mr. John Marshall. The name of that gentleman had been mentioned to the " Leeds Association," and received by them with much favour, as all that was known of his poll - ical principles coincided with their own, and there could not he two opinions with re gard to his intellectual qualifications. They thought it prudent, however, respectfully to request of Mr. Macaulay that he would favour them with his opi nions on the several points contained in the follow ing resolution, which forms the basis of the Asso ciation : " That the principles ,by which the Association shall be guided are, such a Reform of the representative system (in cluding the vote by ballot) as shall rescue the electors from corrupt influence, ar.d identify the House of Commons with the interests of the people—reduction of taxation, with rigorous economy in the public expenditure—extinc tion of all monopolks—the total abolition of Colonial Slavery, and non-interference with the internal affairs of Foreign States." The Chairman having written to Slr. Macaulay, that gentleman returned an answer, which gave full and cordial satisfaction to every member of the Association. The following is Mr. Macaulay's letter : " London, Sept. 9, IS3I. " My DEAR have received your communica tion, and 1 thank you most cordially for the friendly and courteous manner in which it is expressed. " With respect to the mitigaiion of public burdens, the abolition of slavery, and the principles which ought to re gulate our intercourse with Foreign States, toy opinions strictly coincide with those which are professed by the As sociation. lam decidedly opposed to all monopolies, and in particular to that great monopoly , which will in a few months come under the consideration of Parliament—the monopoly of the East India Company. A free trade with China, and a fundamental change in the Corn Laws will be, I hope and believe, among the earliest fruits of the Re form Bill. "My opinions on the subject of Parliamentary Reform I have avowed in the House of Commons. They are un changed, and, I believe, unchangeable. But on the sub ject of the ballot I have never yet expressed my sentiments publicly. In fact, till lately, my opinions on that subject have been in a fluctuating state : and I can even yet scarcely venture to say that they are absolutely fixed. I ‘vili however lay them before you with perfect sincerity ; thou2ll they are, I fear, too moderate to please either party. "Most of the arguments which are urged against the ballot I consider as fallacies. Greatly as I revere the in tellectual powers of some of the Statesmen who use those arguments, they have not convinced me that there is any thing in secret voting inconsistent with rectitud e and manly spirit. I have never been able to understand why it bbotild be considered as more un-English in an elector to vote in secret, under the protection of the ballot, than to vote against his conscience for want of the protection of the ballot. " The objections to this mode of voting seem to me to be slight; its advantages, on the other hand, to be obvious and considerable. It would clearly diminish the expenses of elections. It would, at least in large constituent bodies, extinguish corruption. It would protect the voter from ejectments like those of the Duke of Newcastle on the one band, and from outrages like those of the mob of Wigan on the other. "I am therefore favourable to the ballot. Yet I can not but remember that this is a question which has but very recently begun to excite general attention. This is a question on which I have the misfortune to differ from many of the most virtuous anti enlightened public men in England, from the majority of the Parliamentary supporters of the Reform Bill, and from almost every Member of the Cabinet by which that Bill has been brought forward. It is, therefore, I think, a question which ought to be treated in a mild and tolerant spirit —a question which ought rather to be left to work its way by force of reason and by the progress of time, than to be violently hurried forward, at the risk of disuniting those sincere Reformers on whose hearty union the sa'ety of the State depends. " 1 do not, indeed, consider this point as by any means so important as the other points to which reference is made in the fourth resolution of the Association. I think secret suffrage desirable; but I do not think it essential to good government. And I am firmly persuaded that the great measure now in progress through Parliament will, by its indirect operation, mitigate or remove many of those evils ugainst which the ballot is, in the opinion of many most respectable persons, the only security. "In short, lam a supporter of the ballot. But Ido not consider the question of the ballot as one of those vital questions which ought to be pressed forward at all risks, and which draw impassable lines of distinction between p irties. " Permit me again to assure you of the grateful sense which I entertain of your personal kindness towards myself, and of the pleasure which your favourable opinion of my public conduct has given to me. " Believe me, my dear Sir, " Your most faithful servant, " To G. Rawson, Esq." " T. B. MACULAY. The Association immediately determined, without a dissenting voice, that Mr. Macaulay's splendid and diversified talents and his excellent public prin ciples eminently fitted him to represent the borough of Leeds in Parliament, and that a requisition should immediately be prepared and signed, requesting him to allow himself to be nominated as a candidate at the first election for this place. 'We may add, that the two requisitions to Mr. John Marshall and Mr. Macaulay will be immediately handed round for sig natures; and we trust every sincere Reformer in the borough, who desires to see Leeds represented by two men of high chariicter, excellent talents, and sound and liberal principles, will affix his signature. —Leeds Me; curt'. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A most oppressive combination has been for some time carried on by the large proprietors of Padding ton stages for the destruction of the small ones.— Several of the latter have been ruined by the course thus pursued, and if means be not taken to coun teract the efforts of the former, the real %%ill be, as it was some time ago, under the dominion of the greatest blackguards in the metropolis. several times during the last week complaints were made to the LORD MAYOR by the proprietors who are suffering from the combination. Numbers of gentlemen also waited upon his Lordship, and stated that the conduct of the cads and drivers who work upon the offensive system was most base, and that the language they were in the habit of using was most indecent. The intention of the larger proprietors, as was mentioned to his Lordship, is to drive the smaller ones off the road, so as ultimately to obtain posses session of the whole business, and then to impose such terms upon the public as they think fit. To effect this purpose a certain number of proprietors have joined together, and engaged a coach on their joint account, bearing the name cf the person whom they hire to put their plan into execution ; and that plan is that this coach shall take the lead of the one whose owner is marked out for destruction, stopping as he stops, moving on as he moves, keeping always a few yards in advance, with a view to pick up the passengers, and preventing him by vari ous me a ns from his getting his fair share of the public patro nage. In some instances the way of entrance into the coach of the smaller proprietor is completely blocked up by the adverse party; and as the public are not aware of the treachery, and naturally look to heir own ease, the unfortunate victim often drives for hours without gating the value of a feed for Iris horses. Mr. Brown, the Marshal, wa: perfectly aware of !he system, and had advised those who were daily sustaining injury to indict the large coach-owners fore onspiracy. The LORD MAYOR had himself observed the conduct of one person who drove a stage. As he was walking along the street he saw this driver, ~..those name is Bolton, and who had been often be fore here for similar conduct, drive right across the door of the omnibus, evidently for the purpose of preventing passengers from getting in. He (the Lord Mayor) took care to have Bolton summoned before him ; but what was his surprise when Bolton, after hearing the evidence given by the officers and others who witnessed the transaction, declared that the complaining party was altogether in the wrong ; that he (Bolton) was the sufferer, and that lie had t wenty witnesses to swear to it. The witnesses al luded to were actually in the Justice-room, and stood forward to swear, " but (said the Lord Mayor) I told Bolton that I should like to hear the gentlemen whom he wished to call, as I happened to witness the whole transaction myself. Oh, if that's the case,' said he,' I shu'n't trouble your Lordship with my witnesses,' and he paid the fine which I inflicted at once."—(A laugh.) A gentleman who constantly travels on the Pad dington•road slated, that to his knowledge nine of she small coach-masters had been totally ruined by - conspiracy, and, although fines had been inflicted repeatedly, the system continued in full force. The small proprietors have published hand-bilk, stating that the public can easily see that John Williams, the proprietor of a single coach, is the present of of attack, and it is expected that, as soon as they shall have finished off Williams, two widows with large families will be subjected to this cruel persecution. The LORD MAYOR desired that the officers would use their utmost vigilance, and declared that he would inflict the highest penalty in future upon those who committed obstructions such as has been described. If evidence of a conspiracy could be produced, it would of course be advisable in the sufferers to in dict, but he thought the discrimination of the public, who hated oppression, might, as soon as the sys tem was properly exposed, be depended upon as the most . effectual r eme dy. THE SPANISH REITGEES.—Mr. nobler received the following note, upon which it is unnecessary to make any comment, from Mr. Williams, the pro prietor of the beef-shop in the Old Bailey : " 4, ad Bailey, Ludgate-hill.—Friday morning. " L. W. Williams presents his compliments to Mr. llobler, and begs to inform him that should those unfortu nate refugees, spoken of in the newspapers, not have been provided for, they shall be welcome to a dinner every ( by, Sundays excepted, until something ie done for them, upon their bringing on the first occasion Mr. Hobler's card to the dining rooms, as above."

At a quarter past twelve the greater part of the Representatives and Senators being present, the President invited the two youngest Members to take their places as Senators. A deputation of six Senators and twelve Repre sentatives was then chosen by drawing lots, to go to receive his Majesty at the foot of the grand stair case. The public and the reserved galleries were filled with spectators, the latter with elegantly dressed ladies. In the gallery of the diplomatic body were General Be!hard, the French Ambas sador, M. de Latour Maubourg, M. de Vieil Castel, all in full dress. At one o'clock the firing of cannon announced the departure of his Majesty for the Palace; on his way he was saluted with the most joyful acclama tions by an immense multitude, and at a quarter past one his Majesty entered the Hall, preceded by the deputation. On his entrance the whole assembly rose—cries of " Vice le Roi" burst from all parts of the hill and the galleries. His Majesty graciously saluted the assembly, and seated himself on the throne, having on his right Count D'Aerschot, High Steward of the Household, and Baron D'Hoogvorst, Commander of the Civic Guard, and on his left General Chasteler and M. de Lagotellerie, his Aides-de-camp. Profound silence ensued, and his Majesty de livered the following speech : " GENTLE - 34E2.1,-1 am happy to be, for the second time, amidst the Representatives of the nation. " The proofs of affection and devotedness which the Belgic nation has not ceased to give me from the moment that I set my foot on the territory of my adopted country, have filled me heart with lively gratitude. This volun tary transport of a whole nation, whilst it inspires me with very allowable pride, has made me sensible of the full extent of the duties that are imposed on me. Ido not dissemble to myself any of the numerous difficulties of my situation, but with the aid of your knowledge and experience, I shall be able to overcome them. " When the principles laid down in the Constitution which I have sworn to observe shall have received, by the Projects of law which will be submitted to your considera tion, the development which they still require, Belgians will occupy a greater degree of liberty than any other na tion in Europe. The crisis through which the country has had to pass, in order to attain its political regeneration, has for a moment affected its material interest. It must hence forth be the objet of united efforts to promote their inte rest by encouraging manufactures, and opening new channels to commerce. " The relations already so happily established with France and England, whirls I hope will soon be ex tended to the other Powers, will facilitate the performance of this task. _ . " e;oiiations have just been opened to effect a defini tive arrangement of our differences with Holland. The honour and interests of the Belgian nation will be defended in them with perseverance and dignity. With you, Gentlemen, and the whole nation I look with confidence to the issue of those negotiations, the result of which will be laid befoie you. ,‘ The neutrality of B e l g i u m, g uaran t ee d by th e Five Powers, has suggested the possibility of modifications in its system of defence. This possibility, the principle of which is admitted by the Powers concerned in the erec tion of the fortresses of 1815, will, I doubt not, he ac knowledged,by the nation. Negociations will take place to regulate the execution of the measures connected with the demolition of some of those fortresses. Happy in being able to draw closer the ties which unite the two people, Eelgium will on this occasion give a proof of its gratitude to France, and Europe a striking pledge of its just confi. dence in the honour of the King of the French. ."fhe eminent services rendered by France involun tarily call our attention to a recent event, the conse quences of which, I must say, have been too much exag gerated. Belgium, confiding to excess in the engage. merits Contracted by Holland towards the Five Powers, and to which it Lad itself subscribed, was suddenly sur prised by an army, the force of which far exceeded that which Belgium could oppose to it. In these painful circumstances, the succour of friendly powers became urgent and indispensable. You know . p t r t o ,e inp i t r n a t v ss er i , " ss l ' N et i s ii a d flor i d . e s d u n s e . ver l b f e i e n i; courage, if could have made up for the I ‘l l l*. ' e.i :l ;: n ilidie t tdi‘ o va f li:: :i ttc' rganizetion and union which was felt in our young army, without doubt (and you will believe my testimony) we should have victoriously repulsed an un just aggression, contra, to all the principles of the law of nations. The nation will be but the more sensible of the absolute necessity of the reforms already com menced, and which are prosecuted with a degree of ac tivity, the results of which will be soon apparent. In a 1 . ,.w days Belgium will have an army, which, if it should be again necessary, would be able to rally round its King, to defend with 110110tir and with success the independence end the rights of th e country. /. Projects of law will be laid before you during this Session to give to the Governua.,nt its legitimate share of ii,fluence in the comp° dtion of the army, to restore con fidence to the s'.ldist i and to secure a just recompence to those who shall distinguish themselves in the day of danger. " Gentlemen,—l will call your particular attention to , he state of our finances. I know the care which the es sential Part of the public service requires. 'fhe prevail ing desire of my Government will always he successively to introduce in the public expenditure the economy which is so loudly called for by the state of society, af:d by the old of which it will be practicable graduolly to lessen the burdens of the people. " At present, nevertheless, sacrifices are still necessary on the one hand, to defray the expenses of the reorgani a:ation of the army; on the other, to make up for a dimi nution in the revenues, which the circumstances in which we are for a time placed indicate as inevitable. The na rion has proved that it did not shrink from the sacrifices which the honour and the interest of the country required. It will also know how to bear those of which the Govern ment shall have proved the necessity. " The confidence with which the whole nation has hi therto met its king, giTes me a to reckon on it:: representatives in all the meastrs.s which may contribute to the good of the country. My hopes will not be disap pointed. Belgium will see us animated by the same desires to labour in concert for the happiness and glory this country, to which I shall not cease to devote all my solicitude, as I have already devoted to it my dearest af fections." This speech, delivered at the commencement ►with some emotion, but soon ►with a firm and steady voice, was listened to in profound silence. It was followed by the applauses and acclamations of the Assembly. The erns of " Vise le Roi I" ►were re peated. His Majesty appeared to be affected by these proofs of attachment ; he repeatedly bowed to the Assetnbly, and ►was escorted to the door of the Palace of the nation ►with the same ceremony as on his arrival. There his Majesty mounted his horse, and returned to his Palace amidst the tame accla mations as before. All the Members were preterit at this sitting'. After the King had departed, M. Serruys proposed to nominate five Committees, of ten members each, to verify the powers of the representatives. This was done, and to each Committee were assigned the provinces, the validity of whose election it is to examine. ANTWERP, SEPT. 7.--Orders have been given to remove all the barricades that still remain, and to destroy all traces of them. General Belliard has written to General Tabor, requesting him to forward General Chasse a letter from himself and Sir E. Adair, requesting him to authorise the construction of a counter dyke to check the inundation, which has already made so much progress near Lillo ; and as this dyke might inter f, re with the means of defence of that Government, the Belgian Government has agreed to leave the dyke at the disposal of the Governor of Lillo. They also request General Chasse to cause the sluices of the North of the Tete de Flandres to be repaired, or to allow General 'labor to send workmen for that purpose. . SEPT. B.—The bad weather, and, still more, the want of activity in repairing the dyke.; of the river, cause the breaches to enlarge in an alarming manner. BRUSSELS, SEPT. 9.—Yesterday afternoon six extraordinary couriers, Belgian and English, set out with dispatches for Paris and London. _ _ nirsl;al Gerard, with the head-quarters of the French army, arrived on the 7th at Mons, from Nivellei. ST. PETERSBURG'', AUGUST 24.—An Imperial Ukase of the 13th inst. orders a levy of four recruits from every 500 individuals throughout the empire, to fill up the vacancies which the war in Poland and the cholera have caused in the army. Another Ukase, dated the IBth of August, re gulates, first, the measures taken by the Government to check the progress of the cholera, and which were so successful at Moscow : it then mentions the dis orders which took place at St. Petersburgh when the cholera appeared there, and which were caused by the notion of the people that the physicians poisoned the sek. This report was not followed by any very serious consequences in the capital, but it spread to the town of Staraga Russia, and in the districts of the military colonies of the grenadier corps, where crimes upon the honest and religious Russian nation were committed ; the colonists, ex asperated at the reports of poisoning, turning their suspicions on the physicians and their own superiors, forgot the doctrine taught by the Church, of sub mission to the authorities. The Ukase adds, that order is restored ; that the deluded colonists have themselves delivered up to the Government the guilty persons, the principal of whom await the pu nishment due to their crime. The Ukase concludes by exhorting the Emperor's faithful subjects not to resist the measures taken by the Government against the cholera. (From the Prussian State Gazette of Sept. 4.) FRONTIERS OF POLAND, AUG. 31.—The Russian corps, under the command of Lieut.-General Von Knorring, which is still encamped near Kalisch, was yesterday joined by 3,000 infantry, and expects more considerable reinforcements : 10,000 men are said to be already on their march from the main army near Warsaw. The reorganizing of the province will take place in a few days. A proclarnation,just published, promises pardon to all civil officers, if they return to their posts within a given time. In general, the disposition of the inhabitants in the pro vince of Kalisch is said not to be unfavourable to the Russian Government. According to accounts from Warsaw, the Polish Minister of 'War; Moraw ski, had resigned, and Gen. Skrzynecki entered the 4th Regiment as a Grenadier. P.S. An unauthenticated report from the Lower Vistula is ju•t spread, of a retrograde movement of the Russian troops: the bridge over the Vistula, near Schilno, is said to have been broken down by ' ' them yesterday, and the magazines in that part to have been removed in the greatest haste to the left batik of the Vistula. General Uminski, it is added, with 6,000 men, closely follows the Russian corps. BERLIN, SEPT. 3.—ln all seventeen persons have been attacked here by the cholera, of whom thirteen have died, and four are under the physicians. STIRLING BEE'S CURERS, WITH SARSA PARILLA, &c.

On the afternoon of Saturday last a quarrel took place between a young woman of the name of BONE and a married woman named RonsoN, who were shear ing together in a field at Burnt-house, near Chester-le- Street, when the former struck the latter on the face with a sickle, and cut her nose almost completely off, as it was left banging by merely a tack of skin. The injured mein ber was afterwards restored to its place by a surgeon, who fastened it with sutures, and the woman is doing well.— Durham Chronicle. EXTRAORDINARY FEAT.--011 Thursday a young pidestrian accomplished an undertaki ng w hi c h w il l be duly appreciated by the spotting world. The task was to lift 100 stones, placed within a distance of 100 yards, each stone to be one yard apart, and to be taken up singly and dropped at cue end of the distance. The time given was three-quarters of an hour, and the di s t ance nearly six miles- This feat was performed on the Meadow-walk, op posite Meadow-place, Edinburgh, with one minute and ten seconds to spare. On Saturday afternoon a country farmer and grazier, who is often, in the way of business, coming to London, and always putting up at the Bell and Crown Ta vern, in Holborn, was accosted by a well dressed fellow ' who called him by name , an d claimed his ac q uaint ance , inquifing after the honest unsuspecting countryman's friends and neighbours. The conversation lasted some little time in Holborn, when another well-dressed swindler addressed the fellow conversing with the farmer, telling him of his extreme good fortune in at last getting posses sion of his legacy of several thousand pounds, of which the trickery of lawyers deprived him for upwards of five years. The fellow added, that he lad a considerable sum of money about him, and talked largely of the necessity of being care ful of troney in London. He pressed his quondam friend and the farmer to have a friendly gla's of wine with him upon his good luck. The unfortunate farmer unwittingly accepted the invitation, and the two swindlers brought him ! 0 a tavern in Newgate-street, where wine, &c. was plied in great ahundance to the countryman, until he was made quite insensible ; and then the two villains contrived to rob him of 250/. of his money, with which he had intended to be at Salisbury fair this morning, having taken his place and paid his fare for that city befo;e he scent with the two sharpers to the tavern in Newgate-street. Mr. Cos' one of the City Marshals, soon learnt of the robbery, but the thieves escaptd, with very little chance of their apprehei 8101a or recovery of the property. PRICE 7D. DUTCH PAPERS. THE HAGUE ; SEPT. I.—ln the absence of au thentic and direct accounts, as well from Warsaw as from the Russian head-quarters, it is no wonder that there are manifold reports in circulation, modi- 1 fied according to the wishes of those that spread them. Thus, among statements favourable to the Russians, we are told, not only that negotiations are commenced, but that they are ended with the re sult that Warsaw has surrendered to the Russians, and that, with the assent of Count Paskewitseh, who had announced a general amnesty, Prince A. Czartorvski had assumed the Government of Poland with the title of Viceroy. gre O at n i t ri fi c e to o ri t c h ,s er hand, Crac ow Journal y the Poles. 11, speaks of t numbers of the 26th of August, it affirms that the Polish army under Skrzyneeki (who, however, had laid down the command a fortnight ago) had defeated the Russians at Socharzew, who had had many thousand killed, and lost besides two pri sonersthousatd7th ‘ many pieces Journal iecesof cannon. On the 2 thousand announced another august the' whichCa or;,ardm'i:acov the Poles, again under Slav tit ii t i e n c i k , (t h i: a ( d :eri g , seaiotiiin:es Journal, lot the e i countless I rsi iN ßussians, t.),3oof t ipibrAui prisoners, hey time at Kolo, forty leagues from Warsaw ; n of had taken t hit ty-eight pieces of cannon. And says it has read a letter from the Polish General . • Pozyski, dated the 25th August, from Ostrowicz, he province of Sandomier, in which he says that no news of any kind came from Warsaw, because the city was completely invested by the Russian:. The General, however, believed that the Poles had gained some advantage on their left wing. Hence it 3,.peary, that the reports of the battles at Socharzew ald Kole, which in themselves appeared improbable, deserve little credit, and seem, indeed, not to have been regarded in Cracow itself. Accounts from Constantinople of the 10th con firm the accounts of the dreadful fire which destroyed the whole suburb of Pera on the 2d of August. The lire commenced in a quarter very distant from Pera itself and inhabited by the lowest class of Greeks and Armenians ; but a violent north wind caused the itimes to spread, so that several quarters were on fie at once. To this was added the want of water, and still more of the necessary hands and good regulations. At noon the flames had reached Pera itself, and at eleven at night that suburb no loever existed. The large Palaces inhabited by the English, French, Dutch, Prussian, Sardinian, and I) wish A m b assa d or s, with a ll the valuable effects, fell a prey to the flames. The Episcopal Church and two of the Roman Catholic Churches shared the same fate ; nor was it possible to save any of the sacred utensils. The Palace of the Austrian Ambassador was saved ; as it seems, by the exertions of the crews of some Austrian vessels, also the Russian Chancery, which is close to it, the Church of Terra Santa, and some adjoining houses. The number of build ings of stone and woad that are burnt is above 4,000, All Pera is a heap of ashes and crumbling not above ten houses remaining entire. The damage, in consequence of the destruction of the Palaces of the Ambassadors, and other stone build ings was immediate. At the beginning of the fire a vast quantity of property was removed to them, as being deemed safe from all danger. "Itis a most afflicting sight," says the account," to see the thou sands of people without shelter, without clothing, or tilt means of subsistence, who crowded the streets of Pera. Subsequently they dispersed in the neigh bouring places, and great numbers have found a re fuge in the capital, as the Sultan, by a special ordi nance, has allowed the Turks to let their houses to Christians. The Sultan has expressed great dissa tisfaction at the little assistance afforded by the Turkish arrangements for extinguishing the fire, and has testified to the Foreign Ambassadors his regret at their loss. He has given large sums to be distri buted among the sufferers; and, as usual, expressed his sorrow to the Ambassadors by a present of flowers, fruits, and confectionary." In addition to the plague, which had prevailed for some time at Constantinople, the cholera was very destructive. Since the beginning of August between 2,000 and 3,000 persons had been attacked by this disorder, which, however, seemed to be less malignant than in other places. The new American Ambassador, Commodore Porter, arrived at Constantinople on the 10th, with the ratification of the Treaty of Commerce con cluded last year between the Porte and the United States. The Turkish fleet had been cruising for some time in the Greek Seas. BREDA, SEPT. S.—The Prince of Orange and Prince Frederick went yesterday to the environs of Terhendon and Gertruydenberg, to view, with the Chief Officers of the Etigincer4, certain point.: con nected with the defence of our territory. BERLIN, SEPT. 4.—From the absence of any posi tive or certain intelligence, great obscurity prevails as to the state of affairs in Warsaw and the Rus sian army. In the Cracow Journal, of August 30, it is men- Toned twat a letter Ivis been received in that town from the Polish General Th‘zyaki, dated from Ostro wicz (on the road from Radom, near Sandomier, about ten miles from the latter place) the 25th of August, in which he statcs, that he receives no cer tain intelligence from Warsaw, in consequence of that capital being entirely surrounded by the Rus sian troops. He gives assurances, however, that the Poles have obtained an advantage on their left wing. At the time of writing the letter the force under the command of General Rozyski was preparing to march upon Radom. After this statement, there can no longer be any doubt of the falsehood of the report circulated in Berlin and elsewhere of the defeat of General Ru diger by General Rozyski, on the 30th of August, near Szylowice. The Austrian Journals state, on the authority of accounts from the frontiers of Gallicia, dated August 2+, that the fortress of Zamosc was then closely invested by the Russians. Several sorties made by the garrison had been repulsed by the be ' siegers. In one of these sorties, on the 16th, the Poles lost 600 men in killed and wounded. In another, which took place on the following day, the whole of the suburbs were set fire fire to, and de stroyed partly by the Russians, and partly by the Poles themselves. General Kaisaroff, who has his head-quarters at Sirno, near Zamosc, had received accounts from Ge neral Rosen to the 16th ; on which day that Com mander, who advances against Warsaw from the east side, had the main body of his army at Minsk, and his vanguard at Dembi-Wielki. HAMBURG, SEPT. 6.—At the moment when the friends of the Poles at Berlin apprehended that they must expect to hear of the junction of General Ru diger with Marshal Paskewitsch, and the conse quent surrender of Warsaw, accounts reached the Prussian capital from Thorn by no means favourable to the Russian cause. Meanwhile it appears that no data have been received at Berlin on which it can, upon any solid grounds, be ascertained what events have occurred. We learn with regret, that in consequence of the regulations made at Stettin on account of the cho lera, very serious troubles have occurred. The cholera has broken out at Sweaborg, on the south coast of Finland. The Petersburgh steam-packet Nicolas has ar rived at Lubeck. Among the passengers is the Duke of Mortemart (probably the French Ambas sador) with his son and secretary. AMSTERDAM, SEPT. 7.

Two Months ll 85 WOOLLEN TRADE.—We hear with pleasure that the woollen trade of Leeds has improved within the last two or three weeks, though it is by no means brisk at present. One great advantage is derived from the fact that the supply of manufactured goods does not exceed the fair demand, and this is produced by the manufacturers very wisely diminishing their hours of labour, to free the =tint from any glut of goods. In the Bank district, where the stuff manufacture chiefly prevails, the workmen are all well employed, at tolerably fair wages, and the toasters consider the trade in a satisfactory state.—Leeds Mercury. On Saturday information was received at the different police offices of the following daring burglaries : On Thursday morning last, some thieves gained an entrance into the house of Mr. JOHN BLUNDELL, landlord of the Torrington Arms, Mill-wall, Poplar, by forcing the back window. They went into Mr. BLUNDELL'S bed room, and, unheard, forced his drawers with a chisel, and ex tracted 97 sovereigns, a bill of exchange for 1001., and a stock receipt for 1,2001.,3 per Cent. Consols, with which they got clear off. The same day the house of Mrs. CLAYTON, of No. 5, Kennington-place, Lambeth, was feloniously entered by some thieves, by means of false keys, and robbed of a number of silver spoons, some jewellery, about 31. in cash, and various other articles. On Thursday i-vening, between the hours of eight and nine o'clock, the house of Mr. BOTIIRELL, No. 40, New Rochester•row , Tothill-fields, was feloniously entered during the absence of the family, and robbed of about 41. in silver, and a silver watch. ence ~t het rap v o se t l i l l i i or Tt wh in . _s the Russian, drove him.
