the Diret'itars of the Oriental and Peninsular Steam Company. Sir J. CAMPBELL returned thanks in a !very able speech, which was loudly cheered throughout. He concluded by proposing 4 The Hon. East India Com pany, the patrons of that enterprise." Sir J. MACKINTOSH returned thanks. The other toasts which were given were—" The Ladies"—" The Pacha of Egypt"—" Messrs. Wilson and Faucett, the builder and engineer of the lEndos tan"—" Captain Moresby"—" Mr. Shaw - -and " The Chairman." When off Ryde, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Admirals Codrington and Parker, and Captain and Miss Codrington, took their departure. The ship then returned to Southampton, which she reached between six and seven, and the company disembarked, and most of them returned to London by the special train, all highly gratified with the excursion. Fireworks were let oft; and blue lights and port-fires burnt on board all the Oriental arid Peninsular steamers while the company were landing. (From the Liverpool Journal.) We had a sight of the saloons of this splendid ship last night by candle light, and do not hesitate to say it surpasses anything of the kind ever yet done in this or arty other country. The admirable decorations in the saloon and ladies' cabin were fitted up by Messrs. Jennens and Bettridge, of Birmingham. In the saloon or dining-room, there are eight panted panels, four of which are nearly five feet long each, and the subjects— • Ist, The rising of the Nile when all the cities of the Delta are laid under water. 2d: . The Festival of the Epicureans in the Garden at Athens. 3d. Cleopatra's Embarkation on the Nile (query Cydnus), in which the " earth's mistress " is about to sail and meet Marc Antony. 4th. The Return of a Greek fleet. Between each of the large pictures are smaller ones, with views of Greenwich Hospital. Windsor Castle, Virginia Water. .Tedburgh Abbey, &c., with a variety o f other orna ments scattered about the doors, friezes, mould ings, &c. TILE TRIDENT STEAM SHIP. The General Steam „Navigation Company's New steam-ship Trident, which, it will be recollected, brought the first intelligence of her Majesty's approach to the Scottish shores, has been commissioned by the Lords of the Admiralty, and has undergone extensive improvements, with the view, we understand of ena bling her Majesty, should such be the Royal wish, to proceed in this quick sailing vessel to the s outh. The Trident (which measures about 200 feet in length, and is of 1,200 tons burden), usually accomplishes the voyage from Granton to London in the short space of thirty-eight hours, about half the time occupied by the Royal squadron in the passage from Woolwich. The accommodation on board the Trident is of the best description. The grand saloon is about thirty feet by thirty-five in dimensions, and is thus so large that it can be divided into a drawing-room and dining-room, arrangements having been made with this view. In the centre of the saloon a very elegant damask-covered sofa is placed. Ottomans, fitted up in a similar style, and chairs covered with crimson velvet, and gilt ornaments, with edgings of gold lace, are ranged around the apartment, which also dis plays on the floor a rich Brussels carpet, of an elegant and novel pattern. Towards the centre, that portion of the mast which passes through the saloon has the appearance of a pillar ; it is veneered with satin wood, and inlaid with rosewood, representing flowers, while the arms of the Company are introduced in the middle. The appearance of the whole apartment, and the decorations, is striking and splendid. The library is situated immediately at the stern of the vessel, and contains a choke supply of books, well fitted to wile away time on the voyage. F rom th e saloon a passage V leads to the royal state room, in which two French beds are fitted up with silk damask curtains. The coverlet on the royal bed is composed of rich white satin, edged with gold. The room is furnished with handsome dressing tables, and a very elegant chair covered with figured satin ; two foot stools, covered with crimson velvet, and a Japanese table of rosewood, beautifully inducted with mother of pearl. The state room measures twelve feet by fifteen ; and, as well as the other apartments, is about seven feet in height. The royal dressing-room is immediately adjoining the royal state room, and is also elegantly fitted up. Below. the grand saloon the apartments for her Ma jesty's suite are situated, consisting of five state rooms, with a central saloon, covered with a handsome Brussels carpet, and otherwise admirably fitted up. The whole preparations are of the best description, and reflect great credit on D. Taylor and Sons, uphol sterers, Great Dover-street, London, by w h om th ey have been completed. The accommodations on board the Trident are cer tainly superior to those of the Royal yacht, excellent as the latter are ; and in the event of a gale, her Ma josty and the Prince woulclfind themselves much more comfortable in such a ship than in a sailing vessel, not only inferior in size, but incapable of coping, as a powerful steamer can, with an adverse wind.—Cale donian Mercury, Sept. 12. THE BANKRUPTCY OF MESSRS. ACRAMAN AND GO. BitleiTOT., JUNE 12.—A meeting of the Commis sioners under the above fiat has been held to-day at Mr. D. E. Acraman's house, to pass his examination, that gentleman's illness preventing him attending the usual pl*ee of meeting. Messrs. Acraman, Holroyd, and Morgan had been taken to London by their sureties, in an action brought by Mr. Hinton, with a view to surrendering them to the Queen's Bench. On arriving there the sureties resolved, before surrendering them, to take counsel's opinion, and, being advised that Mr. H. was wrong as to his point of law, and that the liability of the sure ties would not be at all increased by not surrendering the parties, they resolved not to do so, and conse quently the whole of these gentlemen returned to Bristol. At the meeting Mr. Bigg, on the part of some creditors, examined Mr. Morg an as t o the trans fer of some. goods to Messrs. Neville and Kennedy. Mr. Morgan stated that the tr ans f er was e ff ec t e d in January last, and that was some st oc k s w hi c h were held by the firm at Jersey and Deal. Mr. Palmer (the quorum Commissioner)—What was the entire outlay of your Company in premises and machinery ? Mr. Morgan-258,0001. ; the greater portion of which outlay, to the amount of about 200,000/., had been made in the early part of 1841. Mr. Bigg would suggest to the Court, that while this outlay had been made for plant alone. the whole capital stock of the Company, even in its extended state, had been only 135,000/. __- Mr. Heaven—Yes ; but the Court will recollect, that in addition to the capital, there has been a very large loan account bythe Messrs. Acraman to the firm exceeding 100,0001. Mr. Bigg—Yes ; but finding that 258,0001. has been expended in plant alone out of a capital of 135,0001., I certainly shall not be thought wrong in saying that it might have been expected that some thing would have been saved to carry on the business. He wished to- know at what period the stoppage first took place, seeing that 200,000/. of this money had been expended - in the early part of 1841. Mr. Morgan, in answer to further questions, stated, that the entire loan by the Messrs. Acraman was 110,0001., in addition to the loan by the bank. The warehouses' in St. Philip's had been handed over to the Royal Mail Company under deed, in Feb. last. Mr. Palmer did not see the use of pursuing this further, as the amount expended on the buildings, &c. fully accounted for the insolvency. The accounts of the several bankrupts as to the joint estate were then passed. Mr. Palmer, in doh).- so, said, that having required Mr. W. E. Acraman to produce before them an ac count commencin g at a much earlier period than the one he had first produced he thought it due to that gentleman to say, th at he' had produced an account from the year 18 , 20, wh en he came of age and cpl menced business, and th at nothinn• could be fisher than this account. It had beenlnost carefully ex amined by Mr. Jordan, the aceounta on their part (not acti ng h ostilely to t to , the assignees Mr. Acrarnan, certainly), but with strict care and scrupulous atten tion to the interests of the creditors, and he had found - them to be critically correct ; and h e would also fur ther remark that it had been f oun d to agree gen p with the account previously p ro d uce d by Mr--' man, and - beginning at a later p er i o d of his bus inesstransactions, - Mr. Bushell (one 'Of the assignees) said, if notout of order, he begged to say that an act of justice w as done Mr. Acraman by the Commissioner's remarks. The meeting was then adjourned. MR3. HOFLAND'S NEW HISTORICAL ROMANCE, " THE CZARINA."—We are requested to state that 4 . The Czarina," a historical romance of the Court of Russia., by Mrs. Hofland, in 3 vols. post Bvo., is pub lished this day by Mr. Co!burn, of Great Marlborough street, and may now be had at all the libraries. Mr. Colburn has also just published the following popular works of action :-1. " Percival Koene," by Captain Marryat, author of " Peter Simple," &c.. 3 vols. 2. " Masaniello, an Historical Romance," edited by Horace Smith, Esq., 3 vols. 3. " The Manceavring Mrther," by the Authoress of " The History of a Flirt," 3 vols. And, 4. " The S c h oo l f or Wives," by the Authoress of 4 - Temptation," 3 vols. The favourite steamer, Bruges, C apta i n M a i n, landed her passengers at StKatherine's Wharf, Tower, on Tuesday evening last, within 121 hours after leaving Ostend. Lord Crewe, Hon. Mr. Carleton, Sir James Back, Captain Greville, &c., arrived by her. Sir Robert Peel is e:xpacted to join Lady Peel and family at Drayton Park at the close of the week, from attending on her Majesty during her tour in Scotland. Sir Robert will entertain a select party at Drayton, the first week in the ensuing month,' to enjoy the sport of pheasant shooting over his well-stocked preserves. TH AMERICAN NEWS. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY MORNING. We have commenced looking for the return of the steamer Britannia, to-day, but previous to her arrival, which will , probably be in the course of a few hours, one of our ex cellent line of packet ships; the " New York," commanded by Captain Collins, has arrived with dates four days later than before, that is to the 19th ult., inclusive. The news they contain is notofverygreat importance. The Tariff Question and the Ratification of the Treaties with Great Britain were still be fore the Senate, the latter being debated, as before, with closed doors. The Com mittee, to whom President Tyler's fourth veto message had been referred, had agreed to a Report, drawn up by J. Q. Adams, deprecating in the strongest terms the conduct and policy of President Tyler, and closing with a proposal for modifying the Constitution so far as to prevent the exercise of the veto power by the President upon any Bill passed by a majority of the whole number of both Houses of Legislature. Lord Ashburton had left Washington, and proceeded to Philadelphia on his way to New York, and it is said to Canada. He was in ex cellent health, and various demonstrations of high respect were in preparation at the principal cities where he would sojourn. The business and money markets were steady and quiet, the rate of exchange on Eno-land 6 to 71. A good autumn trade was expected in New York, to compensate for the dulness of the summer season, but business generally is spoken of as dull and unprofitable. The arrivals out had been numerous; the Sheridan, Columbus, and South America, from Liverpool, the Gladiator, from London, and a packet from Havre. The steamer Britannia was hourly looked for, and we trust will bring now in a few hours back to this port the news of her own safe arrival out and home ; she is fully due to-day. We are sorry to learn that the New York has brought, as steerage passengers, about 300 of the working class, chiefly emigrants, returning to this country, disappointed and hopeleLs of establishing themselves in the adopted home they had chosen. She had also a fair number of cabin passengers. ANOTHER RIOT-BLOODSHED-AND PROBABLE LOSS OF LIFE. The Cincinnati Message, of Aug. 9, says :—Our city last evening was the scene of another disgrace ful mob. Yesterday, the German company, com manded by Lieutenant Michael Heckle, were on pa rade, when the boys, as is usual, were following close upon them. During the day, Lieut. Heckle struck several of the boys with his sword, not injuring them seriously, but with sufficient force to cause the blood to flow freely from the heads of two or three of them. At this the crowd of boys became much enraged, and after the company had been dismissed, and retired to Sans Souci House, the boys, in large numbers col lected there and commenced throwing stones and missiles at the house and tauntingly threatened to demolish the house and company. Several of the soldiers at this time rushed upon the boys, and were beating them with their fists, when Mr. Jones, one of our constables, happening to pass, com manded the peace. He had no sooner uttered the words than Lieut. Heckle, the proprietor of the Sans Souci House, rushed upon him with his sword, cutting a piece out of his right wrist, and hor ribly bruising and mangling his hand. This caused great excitement among the men who had, by this time, assembled in large numbers, and there was a general rush to the scene. Seve ral others were severely injured ; among them was a German, who received a stab in the neck, just below the ear. His wound is sup posed to be mortal. The crowd around the house had by this time greatly increased, and were fired upon by three or four of the Germans, from the second story windows. The City Marshal, with his posse, now entered, the house to secure the rioters, when Lieut. 11. recommended his company to "form a line," buckle on their rapiers, and not surrender while one man remained alive to defend the house. The crowd without now commenced throwing stones and clubs at the house, the windows of which were all broken in a few minutes, and several of the inmates considerably injured. Fifteen or sixteen of the German company, among whom was Lieut. Heckle, were now arrested and taken into custody by the police. They will be examined before the Mayor this morning. Mr. Jones, we understand, suffered severely durhig the night from the wounds in his hands, and has entirely lost the use of hi s right arm.—/Vew York courier and Inquirer.

The Boston and Halifax Royal Mail steamer Bri tannia, arrived in the Mersey this morning at seven o'clock, having sailed from Boston on the Ist, and from Halifax on the 3d instant, making the trip from the latter port in 101 days. (From the New York American.) NEW YORK, Two P.M., AUG. 31.—A ma t er i a l change for the etter has come over the prospects of the country since our last. The ratification of the British treaty by the Senate, is looked upon as set tling the question of enduring and harmonious peace with England for long years to come. May it be perpetual ! On this solid basis of confidence and re mewed hope, comes the Tariff Bill, just passed by Congress, and signed by the President without delay, and now therefore the law of the land. We annex a comparative abstract of the duties it imposes, and those imposed by the law of 1822. In addition to the actual amount of duties, is the fact that they are to be paid in cash, where, heretofore, there was an average credit of six months.

Section 12. All duties shall be paid in cash—or the goods will he sold after 60 days' detention. Section 13, prescribes the method of selling, and means for the owner to recover the overplus. Section 14 allows a drawback on foreign sugar re fined in and exported from the United States, equal in amount to the duty paid on the foreign sugar ; of 5 cents per gallon on spirits distilled from molasses till 1843, when it shall he only 4, and annually reduced 1 cent.

According to an official communication of the act ing Secretary of the Tr usury, of the 23d inst., the present liabilities of the I►epartment are-- On account of Civil, Diplomatic, and Mis• cellaneous Services, estuaated at. 5200,000 Service of Military Departz.zent, estimated at 1,500,000 Service of Navy Department, estimated at 775,000 Treasury Notes due and payable, but, while continuing to bear intevest under the pro visions of the Act of April 15, probably will not be required to be paid beyond the $lOO,OOO mentioned in my letter of yes terday 1,400,000 3,875,000 To this is to be added the amount retained to meet the payment of trust funds, the sum estimated as payable to the States under the Distribution Act, the interest pay able on the pubfic debt on Sept. 30, and the amount which will probably be required for redemption of Trea sury notes and int erest, b e i ng an aggregate o f $ 1,1 8 0, 0 00. Against this aggregate of about five millions of dollars, there are no "available funds" in the Trea sury, except the above sum held in trust and for dis tributiOn,.c The Treasury estimate of funds to accrue from the Customs up:: to January next, is four and a half millions, and from miscellaneous sources 50,000 dollars. The estimate, however, was made under existing laws,; the new tariff law must increase the amount. . The whole amount of Treasury notes. which in con formity with law, may yet be issued on 22d instant, Was only 116,931 dollars—not. including Treasury notes, .paid in for lands, and re-i ssua bl e . The whole amount of stock of the twelve million loan sold, is less than two millions ! - of which all but a spill fraction issued at par in, payment of debts, was sold at 2 1.2 per cent. discount for a 6 per cent. stock. In this condition of the Treasury a Bill has. passed the House of Representatives, and will doubtless be come a law, authorising the issue of Treasury notes to the amount of six millions of dollars, in lieu of an equal amount of the 6 per cent. stock still unsold, and forbidding the sale of anymore stock under par, or the issue of any certificates of stock for debts due by the Government, or in any other way, than for a bona fide loan. • As this will only leave about four millions of dollars to be borrowed on loan, wepresume, now that revenue is provided and the amount of the stock to he 'issued is ascertained, that this will readily be obtained at par, while the six millions of Treasury notes will aid to furnish a general circulating medium. On the whole, therefore, unpromising as appear ancts have been and low as is the actual state of the United States Treasury, we look forward with con fidence to better times and more assured credit. Congress will adjourn this day, after a session as eventful as any in our annals. The occurrences and measures above referred to are still so recent (indeed some not yet complete), that their effect upon the market for United States or State Stocks, and on the commercial or money market generally, cannot he appreciated. That the tendency, is upward all feel, but to what extent re mains yet to be seen. The State of Pennsylvania has advertised all her public works for sale, agreeing to receive in payment State Stock at par—this stock ranges now, as it is a 5 or 6 per cent stock, from 40 to 44, so that the temptation to buy is very great. No limitation or reservation to price is made in the notice inviting proposals, which are to be sealed and received up to —. The works cost about thirty millions of dollars. What the result of this effort may be, to get rid of debt, and at the same time getting rid of the sources of income, remains to he seen. New York State Stock, and that of Ohio and Ken tucky, are firm, and our quotations show a small advance over the rates of the 15th. Illinois Bonds have been more in demand, and the impression seems to prevail that the Legislature of this State will, at the next session, take some decided steps to resuscitate the credit of the State. Exchange is in fair demand, and our best City sellers ask and obtain 7 1-2 per cent. for moderate amounts. The supply is not large, but is fully equal to the demand. The promise of the cotton crop continues favour able to a very large yield. The new is already coming freely into market at New Orleans, and selling at very low prices, ranging from 4 1-2 cts. to 8 ets. Augusta (Ga.) dates of the 24th, quote the extreme of that market for new cotton at from 4 to 8 cts. The wheat crop has realised the utmost hopes.

WASHINGTON, TUESDAY, AUG. 30. Nothing of i n t eres t to-day. There is still a quorum in attendance, and much more than a quorum in town ; but the certainty of an adjournment to-morrow compels many Members to leave the House fora por tion of the day, " to settle up," and arrange their af fairs here, preparatory to leaving to-morrow evening, or Thursday morning. Acontemptible a n d ma li gnan t slander on Congress has been circulated in advance by many papers,—to the effect that there would "be no quorum in the House on the question of concurrence in Tariff amendments on Monday." A perfectly unfounded, unwarranted, gratuitous falsehood ! The votes during the last ten days will show that the attendance of Members has averaged better than during the greater part of the session. The vote on the Tariff yesterday exhibited 185 Mem bers present at that moment, and there were many more in the Capitol in the course of the day. The votes on various questions on Friday and Saturday showed nearly 200 Members present. The calumny should be retracted by th ose papers that have g i ve n it currenoy.- In the hurry of preparation for departure it is al most impossible to write to-day ; and no interest is manifested in the very unimportant remaining pro ceedings before the two Houses. The House is in Committee of the whole on Mr. Wise's Bill for the re-organisation of the Navy de partment. Messrs. King and Wise have debated the Bill. The Committee of the whole reported the Bill to the House with many amendments. The House con curred and passed the Bill ; but the multitude of amendments requiring the concurrence of the Senate will probably delay the Bill so much as to defeat it. The Senate have passed the Fortification Bill and some private Bills this morning. They have done some glorious work in Executive session lately. They rejected five Tyler nominees yesterday—among them were Joseph Graham, of Cincinnati (the reci pient of Tyler's famous anti - Congressional letter), and Col. Starke, of Mississippi (Wise's witness in the race-course encounter with Stanly)—both nominated as Commissaries under the Choctaw Treaty of Dane ing Rabbit Creek. In place of Francis J. Grand, Mr. Mann, of Cin cinnati, a very competent and acceptable person, has been nominated and confirmed as Consul at Bremen. Mr. Sanchez, nominated as Marshal of East Florida., has also been rejected—an act of signal justice, al ready too long delayed. They have also refused to reinstate Capt. Clack, of the Navy. The President had this morning communicated to the House the fact that he has approved and signed the Tariff Bill ! At the same time he sent to. the house a very long, bitter, abusive, an d wordy P rotest aga i nst Mr. Adams's Veto Report, and against various other pro ceedings of Congress. It is a very laboured defence of his peculiar course against the Whigs. -It was taken up at half-past two o'clock ( a f ter a call of the House, which exhibited more than 140 members in attendance), and was read. The reading is not yet finished. Mr. Adams is watching like a tiger for the floor. In their action on this strange production, the House will be strictly gov erne d by the precedent established by the votes of Sen a t o r John Tyler and his Whig associates in the Senate, on the question of the disposal of Jackson's protest in 1834, or thereabouts. M.& 20.—We have, o Pia New Orleans, a few itemsf intelligence from Mexico. Santa Anna was ox eessively enraged at Mr. Webster's letters to the in solent Bocanegra, but whether his anger will assume a substantial form we do not learn. The expedition of 7,000 Mexican troops t o . the Texian frontier was covertly going on.. The schooner Wateradi, - -hi and several other vessels in the harbour of Vera Cruz, had been put in requi sition as transports. Considerable sums in sil ver from T am pi co and Vera are about to be shipped Cruz to New Orleans. The steamer Dee brought 52,000 Lizardi and Co. dollars to the house of of a perfect master. It will scarcely occupy a column of the Union; Should the orders be removed in time for the four o'clock train, I will forward You some copies by the editor's mail. The President has signed and returned to the House the Tariff Bill. Where is the censure now ? The Bill is bad enough in all conscience, but it is not coupled with the land clause, and he put his name to it this day. The Election District Bill, and the Bill to repeal the land clause, are both up, and will pass before Congress adjourns. If in time to allow him to write his reasons, they will both be vetoed ; if not, he must put them in his pocket, and let them die a natural death. THE "GREAT BRITAIN," or " MAM MOTH," IRON STEAM-SHIP. The " Great Britain," or, as she is often called, the "Mammoth" steam-ship, now in course of construc tion by the Great Western Company at Bristol, is fast progressing tom,ards completion. During the recent visit of the Duke of Cambridge, his Royal Highness honoured the vessel with a minute examination, and expressed himself in terms of warm admiration of "the most gigantic specimen of naval architecture" he had ever seen. His Royal Highness is reported to have said, " She is justly named ' The Great Britain,' and is a noble specimen of British skill and enter prise: I feel that no other nation on the earth could produce such a ship, and that she will truly be one of the wonders of the world." It is expected that she will be ready to float out of dock about the middle of October, and that she will be at once fitted out and be ready for sea in the spring. The following particulars respecting her cannot fail to be of considerable interest :—Her length is 324 feet aloft, which is nearly 100 feet longer than the longest line-of-battle ship in our service ; with the exception of her deck and cabins, she is constructed entirely of iron. Her extreme breadth is 51 feet ; the depth of her hold 32 feet ; and her registered ton nage 3,200, which far exceeds the registered tonnage of any two steam-ships in the world. She has four decks, three of timber, and the fourth, which is the lowest, of iron, this latter being appropriated to the reception of cargo. The uppermost deck will be, with the exception of a small break in -the fore castle, 'flush from end to end, and without ele vation or building of any kind, so that there will be nothing above deck, with the' exception of her masts and funnel, to offer resistance to a head wind. Th-: two intermediate decks are ex clusively for the use of the passengers andthe officers of the ship ; they will form four spacious saloons (which, together, will make a length... of dining room of 350 feet), two commodious and elegant la dies' saloons, or cabins, and 180 state-rooms, each of which will contain two sleeping-berths, of more than the ordinary dimensions. From this it will be seen that the Great Britain will afford ample accommoda tion to 360 passengers, providing a separate bed for each, without making up a single sofa be in either of the saloons, and this, too, without trenching on the accommodations provided for her officers, crew, stew ards' department, &c. The principal . saloon will be most extensive and magnificent ; its length from end to end will measure 108 feet, its width will be 32 feet, and its height 8 feet 3 inches. Scow slight idea of the bulk of this gigantic vessel may be formed, when it is stated that in addition to the,. vast space before described as appropriated to passengers, &c., and that required for the erection of her boilers, engines, &c., she will have room for 1,000 tons. of coal, and 1,200 tons of merchandise. The Great Britain will be fitted, with four engines of 250-horse power each, in all 1,000-horse power. She will have three boilers, capable of containing 200 tons of water, and these will be heated by 24 different fires. In her construction there. have been used no less than 1,400 tons of iron, in addition to the large quantity of timber required for her decks and cabins. Thus far of the construction of the hull, &c. The great experiment which this gigantic steamer is des tined to solve is one of vast importance in maritime science. She will not be propelled by the ordinary mode, with paddles, but by the newly invented scre w propeller, which has been patented by Mr. Smith, of London, and the successful application of which to the Archimedes steamer has created a feeling of confi dence that it is destined to effect a cOmplete revolution in the practice of steam navigation. With a view to a thorough and searching investiga tion of the powers of the screw, and its applicability to the purposes for which their new vessel is designed, the Great iVestern Steam-ship (lompany hired the Archimedes for several months, and in the course of the autumn of 1841, they made a series of experiments with screws of various forms and sizes, the result of which was, that it was found that equal velocity and as great power could be obtained with the screw as with the use of paddles, and that the screw conferred a great advantage on vessels propelled by it under adverse circumstances, more particularly in the case of strong head winds. The machinery of the screw is likewise far more simple than that of the paddles, and it is by no means so great an incumbrance to the vessel. Under these circumstances, it was resolved by the Company not to use the paddle, but to adopt the screw, with such improvements as had been suggested in the course of the various experiments. The screw with which the Great Britain will be fitted is 16 feet in diameter, and it will be placed under the stern between the stern-post and the run of the ship, which situation is selected, as placing it out of the reach of accidents, to which, in many others, it would be liable. According to the calCulations of men of nautical skill and experience, the substitution of the screw propeller for paddle-wheels will relieve the ship of fully 100 tons of top-weight, while it will, at the same time, admit of the boilers and' engines being adjusted in that part of the vessel best adapted for their reception, and where they can best act as permanent ballast. The Great Britain will be fitted with six masts. Of these the mainmast alone will be rigged with topmast and yards. The other five will carry a single fore and aft sail each. The height of the mainmast will be 95 feet, and the canvass composinc , the several sails be sufficient to cover an area of three' quarters of an acre. It is intended to fit up the saloons, &c., with a degree of elegance becoming a ship of such an extraordinary character, and the whc e of her fittings will be such, as to ensure the comfort of the passengers, and adorn and beautify the ship. FRACAS BETWEEN J. E. TENNENT, ESQ., M.P., AND EX-SUB SHERIFF WM. CALDBECK, ESQ. We have received the following letter from a cor respondent in Belfast : " BELFAST, SATURDAY.—YOU must be aware that, owing to the late election compromise, great discon tent exists among the Tories of this town. One party— which maybe called the Tennent or Compromise party —is exceedingly anxious to have all future elections for the borough arranged like the last one. By this, Emerson Tennent would be saved the cost of a contest —he would retain his seat without expense to himself or his party, and this is of paramount moment in the present exhausted state of their finances. But there is a very large party of Tories opposed to the Compro misers. This party is mostly composed of thorough; paced Orangers and Ultras from various places in the neighbourhood of Belfast, who can scarcely be said to be connected with the town either by property or residence. These intermeddlers are exceedingly noisy and boisterous and take great s t a t e upon them. They t a lk as if all constitutional principle was confided to their custody, and the fate of the entire party depended upon their exertions. Of this party Mr. Wm. Caldbeck, for many years Sub-Sheriff, at times both of Down and Antrim, is a very prominent and noisy member. He opposed the late compromise, and has made himself rather too conspicuous in de nouncing all concerned therin. " Some days ago a meeting was held in this town, for the ostensible purpose of adopting measures to heal the dissensions which have sprung up among, the Tories. Very few of the compromise party attended, and the Ultras had it all their own way. Some very strong language was used relative to the compromise; and, among the rest, Mr. Caldbeck made some allu sions to Emerson Tennent, which were anything but complimentary to that gentleman's conduct or cha racter. The consequence was, that, on last Satur day, Mr. Tennent chanced to meet Mr, Caldbeek in the street,' When some altercation took place ; and, as the town-talk runs, Emerson Tennent comported him self in such a manner that Mr. Caldbeck—though rather obtuse, it is said, in such matters--could not by any means get over considering it as personally insulting. The meeting was abruptly terminated by Emerson Tennent refusing, in the most con temptuous manner, to hold any further conversation with Mr. Caldbeck. Finding no other alternative available, Mr. Caldbeck sent a friend to Emerson Ten.. nent, not, as report says, to demand satisfaction, but to effect a reconciliation, whereupon a correspondence , took place between the parties, which resulted in Mr. Caldbeck expressing himself satisfied somewhat after the fashion of Shakspeare's gallant hero of the leek !' " Though this fracas has been the subject of town gossip during the week, it has not found its way into any of the local papers—wherefore I know not. L need not trouble you with all the various rumours re lative to the purport of the correspondence. said to have passed between the parties; the general impres slob, however, is, that Emerson Tennent, knowing well his man, i3lurtpreq bravely, and maintained a gal lant bearing throughout ; while 11r, g g icNck, though exceedingly valiant in executing her Majesty's writs off/. fa., failed to evince the same physical daring when unsupported by such authority."—Dublin Monitor. At the Mansion-house, yesterday, a native of Switzerland, named Gabriel Arnbita, was brought be• fore the Lord Mayor, charged with having committed an e.xteosive fompry. A lengthened inquiry took place ; but the Lord Mayol:, considering that the evidence against the prisoner was very defective, remanded him tilj further evidence could be obtained. IMPORTANT FROM •WASHINGTON. -, - - THE TARIFF BILL SIGN n ""'PROTEST OF THE FR E - STHEN T—ADSOURNM LINT, &C. The 'Washington Correspond e nt of the New York Union gives the following important news from Washington WASIiINGTON, AUG. 30 . - 4 have hinted that you might expect . a powerful devel o pment ere Congress adjourned, and here we have it this morning in the shape of a protest of the President against the Report and formation of the Committee of thirteen, at the head of which was Mr. Adams, on the s ubject of the President's last veto. It was sent to the Hous e bright and early this morning, when the honour-a/4 es re f u sed to receive it, or to permit it to be entered on their journal. It is now in the hand of the executive printer, and will soon be set up, but no copies can be forwarded-before it is read in the House; soon as it :is p rinted, Mr. Proffit Will offer a reolutiot, rgspecting i t , i n .;:ime shape or other, before the House. 14 way we shall induce action, but any other way would be useless. It is a strong document, thou g h a very short one, and handles the constitutional question with the ability SPORTFM TNTE7...T,,Tf; a:"iaT asae,„e.a. aa, a • • —a‘a DONCAS I'ER.—TIESDAY. It is beyond dispute that, up to the Warwick week, the St. Leger, as a betting race, had been incomparably dull, and then it was only the rumours set afloat, to the disparagement of the favourite, that infused anything like spirit into the speculations on it. For this tailing. off it is not difficult to account ; the race it self has been gradually sinking for some years, not in the estimation of sporting men only, but of the public generally ; the im mense preponderance of Scot t's stable hastened its decline, rival meetings sprung up, the Goodwood, Liverpool, New castleand Chester events, and a host of handicaps, came in for their share of attention, the death of some of the most influential supporters of the turf, and the retirement of others, made vacancies that have not been filled up; the ring has been awfully s h a k en i n num b ers, wealth and confidence by two bad Derby •settlings, and the attention of hundreds devotedly attached to the sport has been distracted, and their means of enjoying it diminished by . the melancholy st a t e o f tra d e i n every part of the kingdom. In exemplification of the last-men tioned items, we need only refer to Manchester, where every second man attests his interest in the sport, either in the shape of a "sweep" or a bet—the recent disturbancs have utterly deprived them of the where withal to indulge their fancies. At Sheffield (one of the most sporting towns in the North), w hi c h is dependent en ti re l y on the American market, business is in so deplorable a state, that at this moment upwards of five thousand able-bodied artificers are on the parish books. There has been no " turn-out " at Sheffield. The causes we have enumerated have had a sensible effect on all kinds of arausements —on racing (the most expensive of them all) in particular, and more so on the present St. Leger than any other event of the year. After reading this brief preamble, those who derive their knowledge of the passing events of the turf from t columns of a newspaper, will not be surprised to hear that the St. Leger day, celebrated on Tuesday last, fell short of the grandetn: and excitement that we have so often witnessed and described in the " olden time ;" still, in the hacknied sense of the phrase, it was a " grand day ;" the railroads from the north and south, the Midland and Western Counties, brought a very large increase to the company mentioned as having arrived on Monday ; the streets were thronged at an early hour ; the list promised a good start for the race, and a sufficiency of running of a less exciting character. Th e we ath er was -fi ne, an d one or the field" repeated in every variety of dialect, showed the anxiety that was felt in the approaching struggle. The betting-rooms were thronged for some ' hours before the commencement of the races, and rings, large and small, being formed in different parts of the room, business proceedeclavith considerable activity to the last moment. Amongst other prominent favourites were Blue Bonnet and Master Thomas. The first had never been spoken of .as either in the list of expected starters, or by the prophets, until Monday morning, when her debut was proclaimed by a bet of 1,000 to 10; before midnight she was backed heavily at 10 to 1 by the parties who had eagerly supplied the wants of the Eglinton party, at thousands to twenty-five, twenty, and so on, up to less than half those odds—in truth they looked uncommonly "blue ;" the gelding (Master Thomas) placed them in just as pleasant a predicament, and thou sands to twenty-five were most reluctantly hedged at 10 to 1. After the first half-hour a change vastly to the pre judice of the gelding occurred. Attila was in greatdemand at 6 to 5, and in a very brief space his companion (the gelding aforesaid) went out of the betting. Beyond this, and an improve ment o f two or three points in Ballinkeele and Eboracum, there was nothing done that claims particular notice. About one o'clock the books and the doors were closed ; and in another half hour, the thousands that had been cooped up within the nar row confines of the town, had changed the venue to the race course. The scene there was exceedingly bril liant ; the Stands, large and small, were full to over flowing ; and an immense multitude was congregated on either side of the rails, from the gravel road above the Starting -post, to considerably below the Distance. So cheerful and well-ordered an as semblage has not been seen on Dsacaster race-course for many years ; the only ingredient wanting to make the picture complete was a better display of beauty and fashion. The first race on the day's list ended in a walk over ; the second was little better ; these disposed of, the bell rang for saddling for the St. Leger, of which, and the events that preceded and followed, we subjoin ample details : The Two-yr-old Stakes of 100 sovs., h ft.

THE RACE.—About a quarter past three, fifteen out of the seventeen that started had taken their pre liminary canters ; some minutes after, the other two— Attila and Master Thomas —made their appearance in company, took a short gallop, and joined in the cus tomary parade from the Grand Stand to the starting post. After one slight failure an effective start was accomplished, and the race commenced, Attila taking the lead at a strong pace, followed by Scalteen and Eboracum—Marion, Priscilla Tom boy, Fireaway, Happy-go -Lucky, and several others treading upon theft: heels, with every other horse in the race closely laid up, ex cept Ballinkeele, Seahorse, and Cattonite. Marion receded from the front rank in a few strides, and Priscilla Tomboy, finding the speed too much for her, was fain to keep company with Seahorse and Cattonite in the rear. In rising the hill, Scalteen was passed by Eboracum, who neared the favourite at the mile post, and forced the running so effectually, that at the Red House it was evident, even from the stand, that Attila was in difficulty ; in making the bend this was placed beyond all doubt, and "The favourite's beaten" was heard from all parts of the course. Eboracum and Seal teen retired with him, and the running was taken up by Fireaway ; Blue Bonnet, who had been in the ruck up to the Red House, showed in front immediately after with Priscilla Tomboy, and at the two mile post they were close up with him, Blue Bonnet lying on his left, close to the rails, and Priscilla Tomboy on his right ; Cabrera was in their wake, and Seahorse, who had been most conspicuously in the rear to the turn, having passed the beaten horses rapidly, was lying in his track at the distance. About two hundred yards from home Blue Bonnet wrested the lead from Fireaway, was never after caught, and wan very easily by a length. Priscilla Tomboy went past Fireaway at the Stand, but was herself challenged by Seahorse a few strides from the chair, and beaten by half a length. Fireaway turned jady before he reached home, began kicking, and was a bad fourth; Ballinkeele made a waiting race of it, and by an effort at the last ran his compatriot, Fireaway, to a length. Cabrera was some lengths behind, and was followed in by a crowd of horses, at the head of which, we understood, were Attila, Pharmacopoeia, Policy, &c. Cattonite looked in bad condition, and ran as bad as he looked—he was beaten off in the first fifty yards. The race was run in three minutes eighteen seconds. Value of the stakes, 3,6001. That Attila was a different animal to the Attila that won the Derby cannot be doubted—he was nervous at the post, and betrayed other unequivocal symptoms of not being in his proper racing form ; had he shown ten minutes sooner he must have gone back in the betting. Sea horse's friends were very much annoyed at the position he occupied from the.starting post to the Red House ; they insist that Chapple laid out of his ground, and that his chance was greatly prejudiced by having so much leeway to make up ; we believe the fact to be, that he lost a little ground at starting, but that, like Priscilla Tomboy, he could not go the pace. The settling seems likely to be easy ; Lord Eglinton, we believe, wins about 5,0001, and his trainer, Dawson (the owner of Nell, the winner of the Oaks) and frierals, a much larger sum. The Cleveland Handicap of 20 sovs. each, 10 ft, and 5 only if declared, with 50 sovs. added. The second receives 30/. One mile. (25 Subs 13 of whom declared.)

Se nat e"' , ~„1 on Aug. 20, b y 39 votes to 9. We were pre- ' •.. viously informed that the treaty had been agreed to; and the sketch that was given in the Ameri can papers of the line adopted is not in any important particular different from that in the treaty ; but the possession of the treaty itself, and the ratificatiGn of the Senate, removing all doubts, are gratifying circumstances. The treaty, too, is more extensive than a bona' dary treaty. It also contains stipulations for re pressing the slave trade, and for the two States mutually delivering up criminals. By the rept' lations as to the boundary, Great Britain is F,e- cured an uninterrupted military communication between her North American colonies, and the Americans secure the free navigation of St.. John's river. Care is taken of the interest of the settlers, and all grants of land made by either State, in territory now belonging to the other, is . confirmed. There is yet a line to be. run betwee ft the source of the St. Croixand the St. Lawrence. and two Commissioners, one from each count al, are to meet at Bangor, in Maine, on May l ~ to run this line; but that we feel assured, - while there is such a good disposition on both &,des, will cause no difficulty, and we coufideat) y be lieve that the country may look on the Fior i ndary question, which has been so long a. Sc .urce of vexation to both co un t r i es, as finally Sf2tt led.
