But if it left the peopl e unhappy he wou l d have nothing to do with it. The people had a King and Ministers, whose only hope and w'sh was their happiness.—(Loud cheering.) The Union of Birmingham had thought it desirable not to attend the present meeting to-day, not because they (lid not join with the wishes of the meeting—be could assure them it had its most fervent prayers, but because those trhci had raised the reaction grymWht say, "Oh it was a meeting of £he people B ir mingham, and net the, county of Warwick," and for those reasons they had determined to keep away, leaving it for the people of the county to show the borouglimongers that their opinions remained un changed. Mr. Attwood concluded by moving the follow ing resolution : " That the grateful thanks of this meeting be given to the County Members, F Lawley, Esq., and Sir G. Skipwith, Bart., to John Tomes, Esq. and Bolton King, Esq., Members for the borough of Warwick, to Edward Ellice and -- Bulwer, Esq., Members for the city of Coventry; to Robert Knight, Esq. and G. R. Phillips, Esq., inhabitants of this county, for their arduous and never-failing exertions and votes in the House of Commons during the late protracted and harrassing debates." Sir GEMWE Crtetsfetien seconded the resolutione which was c trried unanimously. Three cheers *ere then given for the county MemberS, three fdr the borough Members; ana three groans for the teiroughalengerii. Mr. Lawley, Sir G. Skipwith, Mr. Tomes, and Mr. Bolton King returned thanks. Sir Gao. Pmettes moved the fAlowing resolution : " That this meeting, legally holden on the requisition of Magistrates and freeholders, and convened by the sanction of the High Sheriff, for the exercise of the great constitutional privi lege of petition, views with surprise and indignation the dispo sition of troops in the vicinity of the county town. That the extra civil authority sworn in by the Mayor and Magistrates of Warwick, ' for the preservation of the peace, and the pro tection of their persons and property in the event of any tumul t' was unnecessary and unprecedented, and can only have origi nated in a gross misapprehension of the public opinion of the county of Warwick. That this meeting cannot believe that the object of these military and constabulory precautions is to create alarm or provoke tumult; but if such purposes were meditated, no measures more likely to attain their end could have been resorted to." Mr. Josern PARKES seconded the resolution. He had not intended to have taken any part in their proceedings, having so fiequently and recently expressed his opinions on the momentous question now agitating the country ; but having been requested to second the resolution charac terising the folly and absurd fright of those alarmists who had invested the country town with troops of the line, yeomanry and speeial constables, he cordially did so. The people of Birmingham had intentionally abstained from attending this meeting, and he (Mr. Parkes) was most glad to see the array of the county aristocracy in their proper pl ices, heading the public feeling of the county, and shelving a great majority of intellect, character, and property in favour of the King, the Government, and the people. He bad, wishing to see the leading men of the county take their proper rank, studiously avoided, there fore, any early or prominent part in the meeting. In Bir mingham the people of all ranks had loudly and repeatedly proclaimed their opinion and determination. This day was for the distinct expression of county feeling. He could not content himself with simply seconding the reso lution without explessin , 4 his disgust and ridicule of the ludicrous exhibition of fear displayed by those wise and gaping municipal authorities who had encircled the town, at Kenilworth, Leamington, and the Black Dog, with a cordon sanitaire of troops of the line, yeomanry, and ape cial-constahles.—(Cheers.) Now, he would tell the Lord Lieutenant, the Magistracy, and the sagacious Corporation of Warwick, that never were military preparations made more unnecessarily or in vain. It was notorious that in no instance for many years had an extraordinary force been necessary to keep the peace in Birmingham or War wick—never since the expulsion of Tory mobs. He would illustrate the ends of the Reform Bill by refer ence to the close and cor rupt state of the lieutenancy and corporate system. The Lou! Lieutenants and their staff, the magistracy, were not the choice of the people ; the people reposed no confidence in them. Corporations had become close, rotten, and corrupt. They were not trustees of power for the people, but of power for the exclusive Ind sinister benefit of themselves. Among the first bene fits of the Renrm Bill he (Mr. Parkes) expected and hoped that these antiquated and self-elected bodies would be thrown open, and restored in choice and responsibility to the people, for whom their power was originally vested in trust. The fact was, that these municipal authorities were by late events proved to be quite inefficient. The corporation of Bristol omitted to do every thing they ought to do; the corporation of Warwick did every thing they ought not to do.—(Cheers.) Could a more absurd meal tub plot have been got up than the hand-bill beheld in his hand, swearing in special constables " for the preservati.in of the peace and the protection of their persons and pro perty in the event of any tumult taking place."—(Loud laughing.) But Town clerk, Mayors, and Aldermen, wet e never celebrated for sagacity, nor was he notorious for affection toward them. Never till the civil authority re presented the opinion and confidence of the people would life, property, or liberty be sate.—(Mr. Parkes then read and commented on the hand-bill signed by the Town clerk.) He would now briefly allude to the great subject of their meeting—the Bill. He cordially concurred in all the proceedings of the day ; be had confidence in the Mi nisters, but would to God he could see his way to a consti tutional and peaceable result of their great contest. He did not see his way ; hut he had confidence in the Ministry, and simply because he felt confident that no men of their integrity and wisdom, no men so identified with the public opinion of the county, could be blind themselves to the state of the House of Lords, with scarcely a third of that House really intending to support the principles of the Bill in Committee. He was confident that Ministers must . see the direful consequences of anarchy and confusion which would result from a second rejection of the Bill in the Upper House ? He, therefore, sincerely trusted to the Ministers that—aware of the crisis—they were taking those measures essential to the success of the Bill. It must, and would be carried constitutionally or uticoustitutionally. It was delusion to blink the alternative —(Loud cheers.) Government he sincerely and fervently believed were alive to the crisis. He would now only second Mr. Attwood in those humane and admirable observations made by Mr. Attwood on the deep interest of the people in avoiding chaos and confusion. Tumult and national anarchy would drown all in a common deluge. That was the consummation of the evils of the boroughmongering system. God forbid that the passions of the people should be let loose, anti that all men's fortunes and stations should be hurried into a gulph of confusion and destruc tion. He solemnly warned every labouring man that he above all others was interested in order, or scenes would occur Jiggering all former revolutions in general ruin and suffering.—(Cheers.) Mr. Parkes concluded by second ing the resolution. Which, after a few observations from Mr. CRUMP, was carried unanimously. THOMAS COTTON, Esq. and IL Jaa, seconded the fol lowing resolution, which was carried unanimously. " That these resolutions be advertised in the County Papers, and in the Times, Morning Chronicle, Morning Herald, Sun, Globe, Courier, and London Journals." G. F. MuNTz, Esq. moved " That the High Sheriff, George Lucy, Esq., be requested offi cially to sign the above resolutions and addresses on behalf of the meeting." A. F. GREGORY, Esq. seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The HIGH SHICR/FF having left the chair, and the same having been. taken by Sir G. Pnit.mrs, it was moved by Sir G. SKIPWITH, Bart., and seconded by S. LAWLEY. Esq. and carried unanimously. " That the best thanks of the meeting be given to the High Sheriff' for his immediate attention to the requisition, and for his able and impartial conduct in the chair." The HIGH SHERIFF, in a neat speech, returned thanks. Three cheers were then given for the King, three for the Ministers, three groans for the Bishops, and one groan more and three groans for the Mayor and Magistrates, after which the immense assembly departed peaceably, ren dering the precautions which had been taken by the authorities of the town totally unnecessary. Altogether, we will venture to say, that a more unanimous or effective meeting was never held. A meeting of the Board of Health was held at the Council Chamber this forenoon. Despatches were received this morning at the Foreign-office, from Paris. A.LNwicK.--On Sunday the 30th ult. a shark which measured eleven feet in length, was towed ashore by some fishermen of Craster. It had g ot entan g led i n their nets, and seemed weak, apparently from its having been previously hooked at sea. It has been exhibited in this neighbourhood. At the monthly meeting of the Mechanics' Institution, on Tuesday evening last, preparatory to the annual meeting, notice of a motion was given by Mr. T. TATE, that those Vice-Presidents who for the last two years have not paid their subset iptions should no longer fill that office. And also, by Mr. W. H. A. CLARK, that the rule which excludes books on moral philosophy and po litics should be rescinded, and party politics substi'uted. It is gratifying to observe such a march of liberalism in this institution ; but we much doubt, if there be a Sufi_ tint number of liberals in that society to carry the motion of Mr. CLARK. There is, however, nothing like freedom or unrestricted admission of books, for though such a reso lution may run the risk of losing a patron, if carried, it would probably cause them to join, and a few to re-join, who now refrain from the consideration that no institution oa such a .restricted foundation is deserving of their support.

" arm If • „ • LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 9, 1831. We regret to learn that by the report of this morning, five more deaths by cholera have occurred at Sunderland, and two persons in addition have been reported as being taken ill. In another part of The Sun we have inserted some further particulars on the progress. of the diseaie, as well as some very pertinent remarks from that spirited journal the Tyne Mercury. Our opinion - is, that there is no serious cause for apprehension, however much people ought to be en their guard. As prevention is better than remedy, the safer course will be for the public to persevere in cleanlinesQ, sob , iety, and a determination to meet the disease, should it come, with calmness, fortitude, and a trust' in Provi dence. Unnecessary alarm will only aggravate the evil. Daily experience proves that its ravages are diminished in proportion to its progress west ward from its original source. We tecommend the observations of the Tyne Mercury ou this subject to especial attention. A full report of the great county of Warwick Reforni meeting, which took place yesterday, will be found in another part of our Paper. At this meeting, which was as well attended in point of numbers as respectability, the enthusiasm in favour of Reform was even more decided and unanimous than it was when the county last met to discuss the all absorbing question. The speeches delivered, though perfec=tly free from intemperance, were yet remarkable for the stern, resolute character that pervaded them, Each speaker seemed perfectly aware that the crisis at which the country had arrived was most awful, and that the question, as it now stood, was, not whether we should have a greater or a less degree of Reform, but whether we should have Reform to the extent proposed by the rejected Bill, or revolution. The Warwick meeting, by its spirit— its energy—and its plain speaking, will no doubt produce a happy effect on the reflecting faculties— provided at least they possess them—of the bo roughmongers. It will serve to convince them that the people will no longer be cajoled or trifled with, , and that they have already suffered to the extreme point of human endurance, and are now resolved, come weal come wee, to have their grievances effectually redressed. The following are extracts from Lisbon, Brussels, and German Papers : LISBON, Ocr. 25.—The Lisbon Gazette contains a very long account of the audience of the solemn procession of the Arch. bishop of Petra to Court, to pro--sent to the King his credentials with i ow glowing great c u r b e. as Nuncio from the Apostolic See to the C ourt of Portugal. Ocr. 26.—This being the anniversary of his Majesty's day,birth oi c ga. s. er celebratedhe G az e t teat e c o o u n r t a t i ns anda very in e capital t h o. glum on the King's virtues The greatest glory of Princes," it says, is to promote the real happiness of their lo y al sub jects, long and g and not may to desire but to possess their love. Few States have had in a long series of ages so many virtuous Kings, to whom this praise is due, as Portugal ; but we may be allowed to say, ithoutany imputation of exaggeration, that no Monarch wa s ever more worthy of it than the magnanimous and legitimate Sovereign to whom the destiny of this kingdom is confided." BRUSSELfi, Nov. s.—Colonel Fox, son of Lord Holland, arrived here yesterday from the Hague. Mr. Moore, a British Cabinet messenger, set out yesterday afternoon for the Hague, with despatches from Sir R. Adair for Sit Charles Bagot. The Civic Guard yesterday relieved several posts hitherto occu pied by the 4th Regiment, which, it is said, is going to join the army of reserve. A great number of cannon yesterday passed through Brussels en their way to the army. The Journal des Flanders says—" A letter from Brussels in forms us that M. Rothschild has himself offered to the Belgic Government a loan at the rate of eighty per cent., a condition which will not fail to beaccepted. It is also said that in this case the forced loan of eleven millions would serve instead of the taxes of 1832. This news is not official, but we have if from a source which gives it great weight." The Journal de Luxemburg announces that it is affirmed that the troops of the German Confederation, which make part of the garrison of Luxemburg, will leave it on the 12th instant, and that no others will come in their room. ANTWERP, Nov. 4.—On the 2d, in the afternoon, the Pilot steam-boat at Flushing perceived off Blankenburg an English fleet of 15 sail, when one of the frigates firing a gun (as a signal for a pilot), the Pilot refused, and changed its course. The buoys in all the channels have been taken upby the Dutch. The town of Flushing is declared in a state of siege, and King William - has called on the inhabitants, exhorting them to defend the town, and to lay in provisions for three weeks ; in general preparations seem to be made for a vigorous resistance, in case the English should attempt to enter the Scheldt. Whatever foundation there may be for all the reports that are spread, the English fleet was not yesterday in sight. of Flush ing, which, on the news of the approach of a foreign fleet was immediately declared in a state of siege. Only as it seems a steam-boat belonging to the fleet entered the road, much da maged, and, after having obtained provisions, the Governor of Flushing caused it to be supplied with every thing necessary to enable it to put to sea again ; but none of the crew were allowed to come on shore. A letter from the citadel of Antwerp of the 27th October states the garrison to amount to 4,000 men of whom 100 are in the hospital.4V The Senate has adjourned till the 10th inst. The Chamber of Representatives, in the sitting of the 4th, was occupied chiefly in hearing the report of the Committee of pe titions. M. de Gerlache (the President) complained of a letter inserted in the Emancipation by M. Pirson, in which his conduct to wards the Deputy is attacked, particularly in the public sitting, in which the acceptance of the twenty-four articles was voted. Several Members said—The President has conducted himself properly, and we propose a vote expressive of our gratitude for his impartiality in presiding over the assembly.. . The President desired nothing more than to have his conduct approved by the assembly. The Chamber declared itself satisfied with the explanation of the President. vitiorx, OCT 20;—Our Court Gazette of to-day publishes a long list of promotions in the army, but at the same time ma i Lures of wise economy continue to be carried into effect, while almost haled the: troops of the line are sent home on furlough ; I a great part of the cavalry ; is ordered to return to Hungary, whither the horses purchased for the artillery ard,.the train are also sent, to be the more easily mair.ta!ncd during 'the win. ter.

It appears that for a length of time the Government of Canton has displayed great hostility against the English. One of the Hong merchants had been seized, imprisone4, and ultimately had died, whose only crime was being traitorously connected." On the 12th of May the Foo Youen and the Hoppo, with an armed body of men, forcibly entered the British factory, drove out the servants, treated the King's picture with great indignity, broke down the gates, and committed other outrages. In con sequence of this, Mr. Lindsay had given formal possession up to the Chinese Government. This dispute is regarded as more serious than any of late occurring there. We have received the following from a corref pondent:—" }limar has been haranguing the people at Preston, the prisons are broken open, and the prisoners at liberty. Fires are blazing, and the mi litary called out." --- LORD MAYOR'S DAY. The City, this morning, was much crowded to witness the grand civic procession of "the Lord Mayor's show," and every house top and window was thronged in the extreme by, bath sexes, to witness the pageant; the anxiety was no doubt increased by the disappointment which was experienced this day twelve months, there being no procession, and when so many tumults occurred, which will be in the recollection of our readers. Con trary to usual custom, on Lord Mayor's Day, the procession on this occasion did not proceed from Guildhall to Blackfriars bridge, where it was customary for the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and other civic authorities, to embark in their respective barges for Westminster-hall, but from the Mansion-house. At about twenty minutes before twelve o'clock the bells of the various churches commenced ringing, which denoted the starting of the procession, which was composed of the City State card ge, in which were the Lord Mayor, his Chaplain, the Sword and Mace Bearer, the two Sheriffs, their Under-Sheriffs, and Chaplains, in their State coaches, and Aldermen Wilson and Kelly, besides the usual numker f men in armour, and their Esquires in half armour, pretWed by the City Marshals, and the boys of the Royal Marine Society, with flags and banners flying, and the bands playing " See the conquering hero comes." The procession proceeded from the Mansion-house along Lombard street, through Fenchurch-street, up Billiter-lane, into Lea denhall-street, along that street, and down Fenchurch-street to the Western steps of the New London-bridge, where his Lord ship and his retinue took water in the city State barge, which was richly decorated with flags and banners, and rowed by sixteen watermen in their state liveries. The following companies also end:arked in their f espective barges, and accompanied the Lord Mayor :—the Merchant Tailors, the Fishmongers, the Mercers, and the Skinners, all of which were handsomely decorated with the banners of each company. The Goldsmiths' Company, from some cause or other best known to themselves, did not join the civic throng—they have accounted for it by saying the notice of preparation was too short for the company to get ready, but there are strong doubts prevailing that this was not the reason— certain it is, however, the company did not attend. At Black friars'-bridge theaquatic procession was joined by the Stationers' Company, to which the Lord Mayor belongs, and the six barges proceeded up the river, accompanied by numbers of wherries and other craft, but certainly, we must say, fewer than we ever remember to have seen on any former occasion. From tin various wharfs, on either sides, salutes of guns were tired as the procession passed, and the various bridges were much thronged. At about ten minutes past one o'clock the Lord Mayor ' and the various companies attending upon him, disem barked at Westminster-bridge, and proceeded to the Court of Exchequer, where the usual forms were gone through. The Recorder did not accompany the civic procession, but met the Lord Mayor at Westminster Hall. The civic pageant re turned to Blackfriars-bridge by water, where they will disembark, and proceed direct to Guildhall, where a sump tuous dinner has been provided by Mr. Terry, of the New London Tavern, at which his Majesty's Ministers will be present It is understood that in future the procession will start from London-bridge.

The following is posted at the North and South American Cof. fee house : Sunderland, Nov. 7. " I am sorry to say we have now several cases of cholera with us. All precautions are being taken. The cases were—Mrs. Wilson, aged fifty, who died in twenty-four hours; a man, named Ellington, aged fifty, who died in six or eight hours ; D. Ellerman, took ill at midnight, and at nine o'clock on Sunday evening was sinking fast. Dr. Daun is of opinion that it is the Asiatic cholera. He has been sent down by Government. This account, as well as our previous one, you may depend upon being correct. " Since writing the above, we understand, from good autho rity, that another case and death has taken place." Unfavourable accounts have been received this morning from Canton. The Chinese have risen and attacked the English fac tory, part of which has been destroyed, and all the business sus pended.

They write from Paris, that after a Council was held, the prepa rations for the departure of the King on a journey has been coun termanded. The Monileur has published an answer to a journal in regard to the state of the Bank of France, stating that on the 2d of November, there was in the Bank specie to the amount of 231,497,000 francs, and that the bills in circulation were to the amount of 222,844,00 0 francs. The accounts opened at the Bank were 77,399,00" THE FUNDS. We hear that two expresses have arrived from Paris, hut their contents have not as yet transpired. Consols, which left off yesterday at 8.23 for the account, opened at the same price, but the unfavourable news from Can ton has rather damped the market, as well as the information from Sunderland, which positively states that the cases were the cholera. Still the private letters state, that no great alarm pre vailed at Sunderland, and that the hospitals were preparing to receive the sick. This has caused Consols to recede to 812 Vi HALF-PAST ONE. We have received by express the Constitutionnel of Monday. from which we copy the following : The accounts from Algiers continue unfavourable ; they also state that a malignant fever had broken out to an alarming extent amongst the troops. They write from Bahia, that the French residing at' Per nambuco have formed a battalion of themselves, and united with the English established there; and the sailors of the ships of both nations in the harbour have powerfully contributed to re-establish order. No Frenchman was killed, but a young Englishman was mortally wounded. Having got rid of the disbanded soldiers who have been a disgrace to the country, we have full confidence that tranquillity will be maintained. Busi. ness has been resumed. The express from Paris has brought the French Three per • Cents. at 68f. Consols have continued the whole of the morning at 82%, al ternately buyers and sellers, with little doing.

Let care the most ample, prem.. tions the most vigilant, be employed, but let us not suffer our selves to be paralysed by ideas of a dangerous fatalism, that would persuade us we could not avoid what the good effects of precautions elsewhere have shewn us may be at least conside rably mitigated—let us not be hindered from bestowing kindly attendance on such of bur friends or connexions as may happen to be visited by the calamity, by pernicious fears, which, if we should be assailed, would leave ourselves miserably deserted, a: , we had selfishly deserted others. THE CHOLERA MORBUS. Within the last few days considerable alarm has been excited in this town, in consequence of it having been ascertained that the Asiatic cholera has made its appearance in Sunderland. Up to Saturday last we had reason to believe that only five fatal cases had occurred. We have this day (Mondays liov. 7) the distress ing intelligence of two more deaths having taken glare from this dreadful disease, and a third being momentarily expected. We have been favoured with the perusal of a letter from a gentle man of great respectability, dated " Bishopwearmouth, Sunday night, nine o'clock, Nov. 6," from which we make the following extract:— "Sunday Evening (Nine o'clock), Nov. 6.—Mrs. Wilson, aged about 60, in a respectable station, after an Illness of 24 hours, died :his morning. During the first 16 hours she had no medical attendance ; was seen by Dr. Brown about two hours before death. It was decidedly a case of cholera, but from the ad vanced stage when first seen by Dr. Brown, he is unwilling nositively to say that it was Asiatic cholera. She had been delicate before this attack. Ellington, a man about 50, lately suffering from intermittent fever, attacked with cholera, and died to.day in six or eight hours—attended by a surgeon, by whose account our physicians consider it a care of Asiatic cho. I era. Ellemore, a man about CO, now ill; seen by Dr. Daun, the physician from London, and considered by him to have been Asiatic cholera • apparently sinking (nine o'clock) ; taken ill about midnight last night. "An order has come to-day to our Custom-house, saying all Sunderland ships will have to perform quarantine after leaving this port." On this statement we beg to offer one or two remarks. 01: the case of Mrs. Wilson, the first mentioned, it is presumed little stress can with propriety be placed, as no medical assistance ap pears to have been Called in at all till i 6 hours after she had been attacked ; then it would seem some mecbeal man, whose name is not given, visited her, but it was not till 22 hours after her ill ness had commenced, and two hours before her death, that Dr. Brown, an eminent physician, saw her. Then, though it was a lecided case of cholera, he would not say p,,sltlvely that it was 01 the Asiatic character. In the second case, that of Ellington, a surgeon, whose name is not mentioned, attended the deceased, and the physicians from his report pronounce it to be the Asiatic cholera; the third case is decidedly declared by Dr. Daun to be Asiatic. It is possible the whole three may have been of the same description, but it is impossible to read this letter without being filled with astonishment that in a large and populous town where an alarm of so destructive >t complaint raging was spread, a case of that very disease should occur, where for a great many hours no medical aid whatever is called is ; and another case where only a single surgeon attended, though there are several physicians and surgeons on the spot. We trust that we shall not have occasion again to notice there or elsewhere such apparent apathy under circumstances of serious vital importance to the community. We have made several inquiries with a view to learn, if possible, with certainty, how the cholera morbus has been introduced Into Sunderland. Though the information we lave been able to obtain has not been so exact or satisfactory as we could have wished, we confess our impression is, that its origin is to be traced to some vessels arriving in the river Wear from Mans. burg, which were very improperly suffered to be stationed at Deptford, ostensibly for the purpose of performing quarantine. Nothing could be more absurd. From London we learn that all vessels from Sunderland are to be put tinder' quarantine at the Nore. The Collector of the Customs here has received instruc tions not to allow any of them to enter this port. In some of the London newspapers we observe it stated that there have been 9.1 cases of cholera at Newcastle, and 19 deaths. Nothing can be more opposed to truth. In Newcastle, thank God, we have as yet not a single case of the Asiatic cholera, though its arrival at Sunderland within twelve miles of us makes it highly propable it may reach us, since the coaches are running daily, morning and afternoon, between Newcastle and Sunderland, Every thing that cleanliness and ventilation can effect for protection is strictly enforced. We cannot conclude without stating that two persons from Sunderland have just brought intelligence to Newcastle which increase our alarm. One states that he saw four persons dead this morning of cholera morbus, and that their bodies were bl ck : the other, Captain Lonie, of the Jean, says that when he came away one of his crew was ill of the cholera. Assuming these statements to be well founded, it is hoped that of the four cases first mentioned only one is new, the rest being the three above described : that referred to by Captain Lonie of course would seem to be an additional case, but we do not know it to be fatal. NEWCASTLE BOARD OF HEALTH. The members of the Board of Health in this town were sum moned by the Mayor this day (Monday, Nov. '7), to attend at the Mayor's Chamber, in consequence of a letter which his Worship had received from Sunderland, giving an account of three new cases of cholera morbus at that place. It was resolved that a deputation of the medical gentlemen should go at once to Sun derland to ascertain particulars relating to the cases which have occurred there: Dr. M'Whirter, Dr. White, and Mr. Edge combe, surgeon, kindly offered their services, and in the course of an hour were despatched in a carriage and four. The Mayor, whose promptitude and anxiety to do every thing con sidered for the best on this occasion deserves great praise, ex pressed his determination to attend in the Mayor's Chamber every day from ten o'clock in the morning in order to receive any intelligence connected with this dreadful complaint, and to take the measures that may be considered necessary ►n the event of its appearing here. The fear of the cholera is doing good. The Commissioners under the North Shields Improvement Act (assisting the Board of Health) have set an additional number of scavengers to work, and employed persons to clean the dwellings, &c. of those who are too indigent or too indolent to do so themselves. CHOLERA MORBUS. The following letter from a correspondent does not agree with the official accounts : " NEWCASTLE, Nov. 6.—1 hasten to reply to your letter of the 4th, to state what really has occurred in this district regarding the cholera. " About ten days ago a man died at Newcastle, whose symptoms very much resembled those described as belong ing to the foreign cholera; but as none of the medical men had ever seen a case of A,iatic or other foreign cholera, and no other case appearing ip that town, it was consi dered to have been a very aggravated case of English cholera, and all alarm subsided. On Tuesday I went from this place to Sunderland, where I met a Board of Health, consisting of the leading medical men of the town and Magistrates, deliberating upon six cases which had ap peared in that place—there were four in one family— father, son, daughter, and grandson ; the father died in about fifteen hours, the son was take❑ to the infirmary and died in fourteen hours, the grandson died at home in twelve hours, the daughter recovered. A nurse at the in firmary, who never saw the eon whilst alive, but who as sisted in removing him to the room appropriated for the reception of the dead previous to interment, was seized with the disease, and died in 12 hours. The other case was that of a man in the centre of the town, who was attacked nearly at the same time that th* family of four was, pe U pa t e o d last and night hope came mo , y, fourteen ieng neitnudotrdoarniaygt:ohi although they resided more than two miles apart from each other. Another man died on the opposite side of the river, after a few hours' illness, but, as tar as I could judge, it was not made out to be cholera. No apparent cans could be assigned for this disease appearing, and only one of the medical men had see■ foreign cholera. lie declared it to be his opinion that it was the same he had seen ex tensively at the Isle of France, and that he should repor to toe Government Medical Board in London accordingly. : n u e_ t a n hg t a o jo h t; a b n i t tos e , w,u w l rob i k o c ds e w a uh lt ie e ip h vns e .g b ra ca , a ia d tr s oi e g a va p b fr at om remarked,vioe mwcaHstal , tbihtvairtsg aboutoat n o d f at.N.E., and as it was impossible to send them to sea again, the• Collector ordered them to a retired part of the river, two miles above the town, to perform quarantine under pad upon the shore. There does not appear to have "been any sickness on ,bottrd these vessels; but the fact that the family of four resided within half a mile of where deuce thy were lying. is (in the ab.ence of all other ev of ictr a tes, thought by some that 'he disease may have been corona:- nicated through that channel. Tie case of the nurse at the Infirmary is the most striking." In consequence of the itvelligence f the dreadful disease, the cholera, having male its appearance o n :l l .er a respe nu ct m a e lr i i nlia m b r i e ta ti n n • 4' s - . at the invitation t aC :f le t rS i g irH aear i d g ia lt was held at the Public Office, Bir mingham, on Saturday afternoon, to consider tl e steps necessary to be taken as precautionary measures of safety. The meeting was attended by the principal ph3sicians and surgetitte of the town, who fully concurred in the opinion twit no salutary pCecaution should be neglected, and no time lost in making arrangements to prevent the spreadirg. or lessen the virulence of the disease, should it unfortu nately appear here. With this view, and as nothing tends more to the spread of disease' than sudden fear, it was strongly recommended that timely precautiOni be taken, by which ermSdenee would he given to the timid, and the puklic mind enahltel to contemplate the probability of the apppoach of disease 'Without undue terror. Cleanliness, free ventilation, tranquillity of mind, and temperance, are among the most probable means of escaping contagion, and every effort should be made to promote these objects. Several appropriate resolutions were adered.—Birming.. , ham Casette. MANCHESTER, Nov. 7. The meeting of the Manchester working classes, wilierr c'boalel have taken place on Monday last, for the purpose of forming a National Union, was postponed from that day until Monday !week. The idea of getting up a meeting for Monday originated from the circumstance of tho Poli tical Council of Manchester receiving from the S cretary of the Union of the London We.rking Classes a letter, de- Isiting the Manchester wink-people to get up a meeting for the purpose of forming a National Union, and large pla cards were sent down from London, which wesepsted in the streets of Manchester, calling upon the operatives of - all trades, and in every town in the kingdom, to bold meet ings simultaneously on Monday similar to the one its White Conduit-fields. The Council of the Working % ! Classes Union, on receiving this intimation, immediately congregated for the purpose of adopting measures for the formation Elf a meeting, hut it was found that sufficient notice of the meeting could not he given for Monday, t o have a lui; meeting, in consequence of which they came to a resolution of postponing the meeting until illonday week next, and it was accordingly postponed. Tire Poli tical Union of the working classes' seem determined to have a large meeting, and are exerting themselves to c .use the whole of the factories, both of Manchester and the sur rounding towns, to tense working on that day, in order to give the work-people so opportunity of attending the meeting. It is supposed that the factories of all the sur rounding towns, as well as those of Manchester, will he compelled to close on the occasion. The Magistrates have recently had a meeting, with whom na Colonel Shaw, to ,ake means to secure the peace of the town. COURT CIRCULAR.

In this case Mr. Campbell a few days ago obtained a rule to chew cause why there should not be a new triaL It was an action brought to recover '2O/., the amount of an at torney's bill. The defendants were trustees of a person named Bond, who had assigned over his effects to them for the benefit of his creditors, and the question tried was, whether they were liable fot, the amount of the bill, the assets in their hands not being suftitlent for that purpose. The plaintiff alleged that they had promised ttl pay, and so had rendered themselves liable. The verdict was for the defendant. Lord TENTERDEN having read over his notes of the trial, said the Court would not grant a new trial except upon payment of costs. He hone d the parties would come to some arran g ement. Mr. POLL° K was then heard against the rule, and contended that the verdict ought not to be disturbed, as in his opinion it was a very proper one. All the parties in the case reside at Liverpool, where the transactions out of which this cause arose took place, however, the plaintiff laid his venue i n Middlesex, and put the defendant to a great expence in bring Pig up witnesses to town no less than four times. He contended, that in any event, the plaintiff ought to pay these expcnces, for the action could have been tried at Chester, a distance of only 13 mile, in place of up wards of 2.00. Mr. TOMLINSON followed on the same side. Mr. CAMPBELL spoke at length in support of the rule. Lord TENTERDEN ',the rest of the Judges concurring) said the question was one peculiarly for the Jury, and hc saw no reason to induce him to grant a new trial.—Rule refused. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.) Their Lordships heard two motions (of no importance to the. public) this morning, and nothing else being before them they rose at eleven o'clock. The Lord Chief Baron then went into the Exchequer Cham ber, where he took motions—one had occupied his attention up to the time of our reporter leaving, and in it there was nothing at all interesting to the public. On the arrival of the Lord Mayor at one o'clock their Lordships again took their seats. His Lordship was presented to the Court by the Recorder, who in a long speech gave Sir John Key a high character. His Lordship was then sworn into office with the usual formalities, and then proceeded to the other Courts t o invite the Judges to dinner. His Lordship then went off and was loudly cheered in the Palace-yard, but his tail was sadly cut this time, there were only two Aldermen, the two Sheriffs, and the other usual officers present, so that the people were much disappointed with the west-end part of the Lord Mayors show. The Recorder had his own carriage there, and went off in it. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) PROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, Nov.

THE FLIGHT FROM BRISTOL.—Sir C. Wrrxraatt effected his escape in a clean shirt lent him by Mr. Serjeant LUDLOW. The disguise was most effec rual, and we are assured that the Learned Recorder could nut have been recognised by his oldest acquaintance. Fortunately it did not preserve its entire parity during the journey, or he might ha►e found a difficulty in establishing his personal identity to the satisfaction of his own do snesties on reaching home. The tradesmen of North Shields are, we are informed, now likely to succeed in establishing a new gas company; at any rate they have obliged the old establish ment to lower the price of gas. They cannot but he commended, when it is remembered that the old concern has paid always upwards of 12 per sest..— Tyne Mercury.
