Saturday a Court was held for the despatch of business. EXTRAORDINARY SCENE. The LORD MAYOR having signified to the Members that he was determined to proceed with the business list with regularity the Court assembled. The first order on the list related to the Municipal Corporation alterations suggested by Mr. Wood, and those agreed to by the whole Court, of which Mr. Pritchard was Chairman. Mr. PRITCHARD rose to request that so important a subject might not be discussed in so thin a Court. The Loan MAYOR said that unless very good reasons could be assigned he would not consent to pass over any subject upon the paper. Mr. PRITCHARD should prefer a postponement, even beyond the present mayoralty, to a discussion of such grave matter in the absence of some of the most able and influen tial members of the Court. His Lordship had dwelt upon this subject in a manner which slid not at all meet with the approbation of several Gentlemen of the Court. Several members urged. his Lordship to postpone the' question and appoint a special day for its consideration ; but His LORDSHIP was not disposed to abandon his first de termination. Alderman VENABLES, in the midst of the squabble (for the scene was what might be called a row), left the Court to go into the adjoining chamber, and as there were no more Aldermen present than the Lord Mayor and Alder man Cowan (and three are necessary to constitute a Court) several of the members, who were anxious for an adjourn ment, cried out, " There is no Court." The LORD MAYOR—There is a Court ; Alderman Ire nables has left his hat here, and is in the next chamber. The members rose for the purpose of departing when the Lord Mayor ordered that the officers should prevent any members from leaving the Court, and sent the Sword bearer to get hold of an Alderman. Immediately after wards the Swordbearer returned with Mr. Johnson (who was declared Alderman of Portsoken Ward by the Court of Aldermen, but whom the constituency of that Ward never would recognize). The moment Mr. Johnson en tered there was a burst of laughter, and one of the Portso ken members started up and said, " My Lord Mayor, there are not Aldermen enough to constitute a Court ; that's wit an Alderman (pointing to Mr. Johnson)." The LORD MAYOR—The business may be proceeded with. There is a Court now. Mr. PRITCHARD—My Lord, you have violated a stand ing order in putting th e no ti ce f or th e cons iderati on o f th e Report at the bottom of the paper. High as your authority is, the standing order is paramount. The LORD MAYOR—I am willing to take upon myself the whole responsibility. I should thank gentlemen to pro ceed to business : there is not much more than a fortnight of my office to run. Mr. WILLIAMS, of Watling -street—We are extremely glad to hear it, my Lord..---(Laughter.) Mr. PRITCHARD again appealed to the Lord Mayor, and Mr. WooD said if the Lord Mayor would consent he had no objection to the postponement. The LORD MAYOR again repeated that the subject must be at once taken in its proper order, and Mr. Wood pro ceeded. Mr. C. PEARsoN at this period entered the Court ; and, after some conversation with Mr. Wood, addressed the Lord Mayor on the propriety of postponing the important subject relating to the change in the municipal institutions of the City. After having moved an amendment for the postpone ment of the question, Mr. WooD consented to let it pass over, and it was ac cordingly adjourned. It will not be resumed, we believe, until tho next mayoralty. It would be difficult to describe the confusion and inter ruptions and contradictions which abounded in the Court, although we have rarely seen so few persons assembled there. Mr. C. PEARSON moved that a Committee should take into consideration and report whether the whole of the fifty two standing orders should be rescinded ; or whether, if it was for the honour of the Corporation and the advantage of the public at large that the restriction affecting tradesmen as contractors should be continued, the exceptions in favour of members exercising their professions in transacting busi ness between their clients and the City, or as referees, ought to be rescinded also. The motion was agreed to.—Adjourned. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Hampshire Telegraph.) PORTSMOUTH, OCTOBER 18.—Yesterday the Sylvia transport, Lieutenant A. 13. Howe, Agent, arrived from Quebec and Halifax ; left the latter port on the 29th ult., when, we are happy to hear, the cholera had so subsided that only five deaths had lately occurred daily. The President (Admiral Sir George Cockburn) and Nimble were lying in the harbour ; the Vestal had left the St. Lawrence (after landing specie, at Quebec) for Be'muda and the West Indies. The Sylvia brought invalids from the regiments in Canada and Nova Scotia, with Lieut. Woolf, R.E., and Assistant-Surgeon Damerum. The Pearl was at Vera Cruz on the 29th of August, waiting an expected conducts of silver from the mines, and was to sail for England on the 10th September. On Wednesday Rear-Admiral the Hon. Sir T. Bladen Capel, K.C.8., hoisted his flag on board the Winchester, 52, Captain Edward Sparshott, K.H., to succeed Sir John Gore in the East India command. Sir Thomas and Lady Capel will embark when the wind changes, and will proceed for the Cape and Bombay. The crew of that ship have, by Admiralty order, been reduced forty men in her complement. The Swan cutter, Lieutenant Lane, has been paid off at Chatham ; the Blazer steamer is to be commissioned at Woolwich. The Pantaloon, 10, Lieut. N. Cory, will sail to-morrow for Falmouth, to join the packet service. At Spithead—Winchester and Sylvia transport. In Harbour—Victory, Excellent, Royal George, Sala r! mander, Etna, Pantaloon, Speedy and Raven cutters. The Thomas King, for Jamaica ; Warrior, for New South Wales ; and the Prince Regent, for Bombay, have put into this port by strong westerly winds. By a regulation just issued to all widows of naval officers having children on the Compassionate List, the mothers must swear, and transmit - , to the Admiralty, the necessary affidavit between the Ist and 15th of January in each year, and the children's allowance will only in future be paid after the Ist of April in each year. After the children attain the age of fifteen years they are to make and transmit their own affidavits. A new form of affidavit is also forwarded with the circular, to be used on all future occasions. APPOINTMENTS.—COM. John Shepherd (b), Messrs. W. Dyer, and J. Knott, Secretary's Clerks, and Messrs. W. Ranger, and B. Byrth, Clerks, to the Winchester ; Lieut. M. A.

PARIS, OCT. 18.—The " Commercial Council" sum moned by M. Duchatel to meet in Paris has already entered on its labours, as you will find by a long account of its first sitting in this day's Moniteur. The plan acted upon by the Council, at the suggestion of M. Duchatel, is that of call ing in men who are known, or are supposed, to have had the best means of acquiring useful information, and requesting their opinion on every point under discussion. Thus you will find among the first persons examined, M. Desormes, a professor of chymistry of some eminence, and of great know ledge and experience, but whose professional habits cannot expose him to be suspected of interested motives in express ing any particular view of the question. On the manufac ture of earthenware M. Desormes shows how greatly the English is superior to the French, and explains the reasons why it is so. He says that France possesses means of arriving at the same perfection in regard to that article, but ac counts for its present inferiority by the mere want of enter prise in this country. He is clearly of opinion that if the prohibition now existing with regard to the importation of foreign earthenware were to last to " all eternity," the ma nufacture of French earthenware would not in the least im prove on that account. Finally, he says he is confident that the establishment of a duty of 20 to 23 per cent. on foreign earthenware would be quite sufficient to protect the French manufacturer, at the same time that it would have the effect of stimulating his exertions, and gradually to give to its fruits that perfection which it is yet far from having attained. The whole of the manufacturers throughout the country (the silk manufacturers excepted) seem to have taken alarm at the mere mention of an inquiry. Some have held meet ings, and in choosing delegates have agreed on sending ad dresses to the Minister, containing the strongest remon strances against any plan of making the least alteration to the present prohibitive and high-duty system, which they find to answer every purpose to perfection. At one place, Roubaix, they seem to carry their notions as to the advan tages of the existing system to a rather extraordinary length. Their address to the Minister certainly contains allegations of which no one who has devoted any attention to the subject had hitherto formed any idea. "It seems to be your wish," they tell the Minister, " that the prohibitions by which our manufactures have been benefited should . be now raised. You want foreigners to compete with us in our national markets. Are not then those national markets abundantly and properly supplied by the produce of our own industry ? Does not the cheapness of our manufactures rove the existence of a competition which is calculated to satisfy (rassurer) the consumer ?" I have underlined the word "cheapness" in the above extract, to render it as conspicuous as it deserves to be, where it is used. One would be almost tempted to suppose that it was put forth in pure derision. The French manu factures cheap, when muslins, which may be had in London at Is. a yard, are sold at seven francs the aune, and cali coes, chintz, woollen cloths, linen (inferior to the Irish), and an infinite variety of other manufactures, are sold - in France from 300 to 400 per cent. higher than in England, i:i Switzerland, and in Germany ! It is truly ridiculous on the part of these French monopolists, in whose behalf and for whose especial benefit prohibitions and high duties have too long been suffered to exist at the expense of the mass of the consumers, to tell the world that what they give their countrymen is sufficiently cheap to - make it quite ne cessary that the latter should never dream o f l ower p r i ce s ! One of the curses of France is the excessively high price. of all her manufactures. The cause of it has been the system to which the Imperial Government was compelled, by the frequency of foreign war, and its perpetual war with England, to have recourse. That system prescribed to France the means of dispensing with foreign aid, and de se sure d elle maze. She did succeed in providing for her own wants sufficiently, but at such cost as none but an existing impossibility of doing otherwise could justify. The system has undergone no variation, although 20 years have elapsed since all the ports of the world were again opened to France, and the productions of the globe again placed at her. disposal. Is it not time that the consumers should ask w 4 a roduotiOu in prices should not in _France, as else where, under the same circumstances, be the consequence ? FRENCH PAPERS OF SATURDAY. (From the Sentinelle des Pyrenees.) We have received the following news from the frontier, of the date of the 11th inst. :—" Jauregui left St. Sebastian to-day for Tolosa. There was a column of the Queen's troops at Larrainzar and Albauzo (the valley of Ulzama) yesterday. On the 7th and Bth instant, an engagement took place at Elisondo ; Zugarramurdi vigorously repelled the Carlists. The firing of cannon was still heard in the neighbourhood of Elisondo yesterday." We have received the following intelligence from the Aldudes, of the date of the 11th of October:—" A muleteer of the village of Sil veti, the richest proprietor in the valley of Erro, was ar rested by Zumalacarregui's order, for having sold fuel at Pampehina, although that General had forbidden, under the penalty of death, the transportation of anything what ever into that city. He was ordered to be executed in the cDurse of an hour, when his son-in-law arrived, and only ob tained a remission of the punishment on the condition of furnishing the rebels with 1,500 pantaloons. The regidor, the five common councilmen, the cure, and the three vicars of Irurita were arrested by Gen. Cordova, solely because a gun had been fired by a rebel in a neighbour ing wood, while his column was passing the town. The ten prisoners were not restored to liberty un til: the inhabitants, who are all Constitutional, had paid a' fine of 7,500 francs. On the night following their liberation, 30 rebels went by Segastibelza's orders to the Presbytery, to arrest the three vicars, who were accused of Constitutionalism, but the latter having received intimation of the colonel's intentions, withdrew, together with two priests, from Lecarroz into this commune, where they still are. The valley of Basabura has had a contribution of 150,000 francs imposed on it, for what reason it would be difficult to say. These are only a few facts out of a thou sand of the same sort. The inhabitants of Navarre, al most without exception, whatever their political opinions may be, expect with impatience the arrival of General Mina, whom they regard as the only man able to put an end to the evils which afflict that province. Segastibelza has been with the sth Navarrese battalion at Irurita since the sth instant. Two battalions of the Guipuscoa are at Lecurroz and Arrayoz, villages of the Bastan, lying three-fourths of a league from Elisondo. This colonel has forbidden the inhabitants of the neighbouring villages to go to Elisondo on pain of death. The cholera is still committing great ravages at the Misericordia." The Consultative Chamber of Arts and Manufactures of Louviers has come to a resolution, by an immense majority, in favour of the maintenance of the prohibitions, and has appointed delagates to proceed to Paris and support its views. Extract of a letter from Bayonne, dated the 13th in stant :—" The 7th battalion of the Carlists of Navarre quitted Enea, in the valley of Estilar, on the 9th, and moved to the valley of Bastan, where the sth, and 6th bat talions were stationed. On the Bth the column of General Cordova escorted 800 mules and 30 waggons laden with wine and provisions from Tafalla to Pampeluna. The co lumn of General Rodil remains at Rerreros, within a league of Pampeluna, and those of Lorenzo and Oraa are at Puente la Reyna, Medagiorria, and Urbano. There are no other Carlists in Navarre except those who are in the Bastan, and the officers of the customs. According to an ordinance of Don Carlos all the young men of the valley of Amezcoa are enrolled under the orders of Don Bernardo Zubiri, colonel of the 7th Carlist battalion. On the 9th a Carlist sergeant came into Pampeluna bringing with him 36 men. On the Bth the column of General Rodil at Rerreos lost 18 men by the cholera. At Pampeluna 50 persons die daily, of whom 10 are soldiers." The Aruremburg Correspondent gives a letter from Ber lin, which says—" The importance of affairs in Spain both in a financial and political point of view, has, it is said, in duced our Government to resolve to send its former Am bassador, M. de Liebermann, to Madrid. As this diploma tist has not been officially recalled from the post he occu pied, we conceive there will not be any difficulty in resum ing his functions, and the more so as there is no idea of ac knowledging Don Carlos, notwithstanding all the efforts of his partisans to insure him the crown of Spain." The Diario of Saragossa states that the Criminal Tribu nal has condemned to death Don Antonio Saez, for conspi racy against the Government ofthe Queen. Th e Queen of the French and the two Princesses ar rived on Wednesday evening at the Palace of Laeken, near Brussels. On the same day a party of 21 persons, among whom were the Count de Latour Maubourg, were entertained at dinner ; the dinner party consisted of 40 persons of distinction. The Journal des Debats regards the dissens'ons which have arisen between several of the Chambers of Commerce as an ill omen for the inquiry instituted by the Minister of Commerce. Egotism was to be expected on the part of those whose interests might be affected, but it was not to be supposed that this egotism would have been expressed in such absolute terms, and that it would have left no possible means of conciliation with opposed interests. From this, it results that the Government will have to interfere in the contest more actively than it intended, and the Minister of Commerce will be compelled to set up his personal opinion between the conflicting opinions of the two camps. What ever he may do, he will be sure not to obtain the gratitude of either, nor even the justice to which he is entitled. He cannot come to the decision of making no change, for this would contrary to the advice of all enlightened and disin terested men, who feel that a greater or less reform must be made in the French Customs. As to the discontent 'of the interested parties, it was inevitable ; and if it is discouraging, it is not alarming. Perhaps the Chambers of Commerce, on both sides, have exaggerated their pretensions, upon the same principle as petty shop-keepers ask more than they intend to take ; they have demanded much to obtain less. On examining the protests of these Chambers, we cannot believe that on the one side or the other they mean to make no abatement. The Swiss Directory has sent a new address to the Can tonal Governments, exhorting them to use every exertion in discovering, and sending beyond the frontier of France, the Italian refugee Mazzini, whose expulsion from Switzer land has been demanded by the Austrian Ambassador. Ext4pt of a letter from Frankfort of the 114.11 i t.:--- " 2c:l:w - impediment has arisen to the projected adhesion of Frankfort to the German systems of customs and com merce. Lately it was the Government of Darmstadt which claimed indemnities for losses that it might sustain from its adhesion to the system. This affair seems to have been arranged. But a new obstacle bas presented itself to derange all the plans of the High Senate, which is the treaty of commerce concluded between England and the free towns of Frankfort. This treaty, which is to remain in force ten years, cannot be eluded, inasmuch-as the English Govern ment will not yield. The French and English Ministers have frequent conferences on this subject, and M. Thon, the Prussian Plenipotentiary, goes twice a-day to the Bri tish Ambassador. This affair will doubtless delay the exe cution of the projected treaty with Prussia, which was ex pected to commence on the Ist of January, 1835." The Augsburg Gazette of the 14th inst. announces, after letters from Vienna of the 9th, that on the preceding day, it being the 25th anniversary of M. de Metternich's ap pointment to the head of the department of Foreign Affairs, the Prince received the congratulations of all the public functionaries and foreign Ambassadors. The Gazette quotes the Funds at Vienna on the 9th—Metalliques, Five per Cents., 99 7-16 ; ditto Four per Cents., 90f ; Bank Ac tions, 1,262 i. The Berlin State Gazette of the 12th inst. has the fol lowing from Potschep, a town in the Government of Tcher nigo, formerly a part of the Ukraine :—" A most terrific storm burst at the end of August over this town and its en virons, causing immense damage, and destroying all the crops. The most remarkable feature was the immense size and weight of the hailstones, which destroyed vast numbers of birds and animals, and even the men at work in the fields were severely injured. Ten of these hailstones weighed a pound. The claps of thunder seemed one continued peal." The Gazette quotes the Prussian Funds on the 11th—Four per Cents., cash, 99 ; paper, 99k. A letter from Berlin, dated the 12th inst., states that the King of Prussia has granted to his Minister of Justice the power of commuting the punishments attached to minor thefts. in order to mitigate the severity of the law in cases attended with extenuating circumstances. The letter adds, that schools have been established in all the provinces of the kingdom, similar to that in Berlin, which holds a place like the Polytechnic School of France. These provincial schools comprise but one class, which is equal to the se cond class in Berlin, so that the most advanced pupils of the provinces may be at once admitted into the first place of the capital. We take the following from a letter, dated Posen, Oc tober 6 :—" The Polish inhabitants of this Duchy still suffer from the persecutions of the Government. Their torments under the new Minister of the Interior, M. de instead of diminiohinis ith Lhuy had bcon lod to hope, have been increased. Many persons have been ar rested, and put into close confinement. Among them are M. Eugene Syczaniecki and M. Joseph Mikorski, who had been married only a few days. The only crime, it is said, of which they are accused, is their having sent relief to some of their unfortunate countrymen in foreign lands. The researches of the police at Chatemno are daily re newed. They have been carried into the tombs of the family of Syczaniecki, in the expectation of finding arms, but they were fruitless. All men's minds are disturbed. The nobles are ruined by the fines imposed upon them, and are obliged to sell their estates, which are purchased by th e Prussians. The peasantry , instead of being under one mas ter, are now at the mercy of innumerable subalterns, who take advantage of their ignorance of the Prussian l aws an d the German language. To this may also be added a very scanty harvest. The Catholic clergy of Posnania are com pelled to use the German language in corresponding with the Government and the ecclesiastical au th or iti es , so th a t nearly all those who reside in the vill ages are o bli ge d to employ Germans as their amanuenses, whom they must pay out of their trifling incomes, and who thus become spies upon the priests, who have always b een cons id ere d b y t h e G overnm ent as the principal exciters of the national zeal of the Poles. The fortifications of Posen are finished, and notwithstanding the present inti ma t e re l at i on b etween Russia and Prussia, are calcul a t e d t o serve as a protec tion of the frontier between the two countries. It is worthy of remark, that with all the expense Russia is at in improving her roads, they are not made to join those of Poland to the possessions of Pru ss i a . I n th e i r present state the Russian army cannot come within t wo d ays ' marc h of the frontier of Prussia." Extract of a letter from Revel, dated the 30th ult.— " According to the accounts from St. Petersburg, the ca pital is much occupied with the disgrace of General Ben kendorf, Aid-de-Camp to the Emperor, who rendered such eminent services to his Sovereign at the commencement of his reign. Though he has hitherto attended the Emperor in all his former journies, he has not accompanied him to Moscow. The General has, it is said, incurred this dis grace by the calm and well-considered reflections he has made to certain personages around the throne. These accounts add, that the national party, of which M. de Tzernitcheff is a distinguished member, begins to raise its head, and by its conduct recalls the period which preceded the campaign that ended in the battle of Austerlitz. Ha ving thus succeeded in disgracing General Benkendorf, it is probable that the other pretensions of this party will be listened to. Russia, far from thinking of any aggression against the quadruple alliance, is occupied in improving its finances, which are by no means in a prosperous state. The Treasury gains nothing from Poland, as the produce of the confiscated estates is nearly swallowed up in the ex penses of their management. The paintings and statues sent to St. Petersburgh from Dereczyn, the residence of Prince Eustache Sapieha, have been distributed amongst the different royal palaces. The statue of Orpheus, by Ca nova, now forms one of the ornaments of the Hermitage. The Emperor has presented some of the magnificent vases in porphyry to his brother-in-law, the hereditary Prince of Prussia." A Munich Journal announces that the Duke de Leuch tenberg arrived a few days ago in his principality of Eich stadt, and immediately afterwards set out for Tegernsee, to join the Princess his mother. The elder member of the ducal family of Berkenfeld, William Duke of Bavaria, has just ceded his domains at Banz, in the Upper Palatinate, and his appanage of 225,000 florins, to his grandson, Duke Maximilian of Ba varia, brother-in-law of the King. He has reserved for his own use 1,800 florins. -------- A letter of the 12th inst. from Toulon, states that the storeship La Fortune has brought from Parrechia all the guns that were in the Superbe, and the Rhone will bring the remainder of the articles which have been saved from that wreck. The writer announces that within the last few days there have been in the neighbourhood of Toulon such heavy storms, that notwithstanding the late extreme drought, the smaller rivers have become so full, that they have overflowed their banks, and caused very considerable damage to the surrounding lands.

PORTUGAL. DRAFT OF A LAW TO PROVIDE FOR THE RESPONSIBILIEY OF MINISTERS. TITLE I. OF THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MINISTERS AND SEGRE- TARIES OF STATE. , • - Article I. The Ministers and Secretaries of Siate are responsible in conformity withothelaws 1. For all acts of the Executive or Regulating Nwbr, signed or transmitted by them. 2. For all those in which they may have concurred by their votes in the Council, in•which the same were taken into consideration. 3. For those also against which they may have voted: in the Council, if they do not resign when decisions upon important matters are adopted by the majority. TITLE 2. OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE ACCUSATION AND ITS EFFECTS. Article 11. No process of responsibility of any Minister of State can take place except in virtue of a resolution of the Chamber of Deputies consequent on the motion of some member thereof. 111. In order to entitle the proposition to be entertained, it must comprehend the following requisites :- 1. It must be dated and subscribed by its author. 2. The facts on which it is founded must be particularly specified. 3. The documents must be presented forthwith, or the testimony which they may serve to prove must be distinctly narrated. 4. The crime charged must be classified, and the law by which it is punishable referred to. 5. No acts of private life can be the subject of such a proposition of impeachment, however criminal they maybe. IV. On the motion being made, the Chamber will fix a day on which it will be solemnly read, which reading can take place only after an interval of ten days at the least ; and a communication of the said determination shall be im mediately made to the responsible Minister, accompanied by a copy of the proposition and doeuments therewith con tacted. V. On the day fixed for the reading, the defence of the Minister will commence, either personally and verbally, or by writing, which he may choose to deliver in ; the Cham ber will then deliberate on the question, whether the pro position should be taken into consideration or not. VI. If the Chamber shall decide in the affirmative, a spccial commission will be appointed consisting at least of nine members, among whom the authors of the proposition cannot be included. VII. The commission must choose a reporter and se cretary from among its own members, and from that mo ment it will be invested with all the authority, jurisdiction, and public credit of a court of justice, in order to pro ceed with all the diligence and activity necessary for the institution of a preparatory process, having power to sum mon and interrogate the responsible Minister, as well as any witnesses whatever ; being also empowered to obtain directly from the Government such documents as may be judged necessary;and to require from the respective autho rities all the papers. and, proceedings which may appear proper to throw compiele light. tatu the tants and irtip-übat;‘,“ founded on them. VIII. The preliminary proceedings being closed, and the preparatory process legally completed, the commission will present to the Chamber its report or opinion, with the whole of the process as it has been instituted, and also the articles of accusation in the event of its being judged that such proceeding should take place. IX. The Chamber will appoint the day for discussing the report, which must be at least ten days after its pre sentation. All these documents will be accessible, in order that they may be examined, as well by the Members' Chamber as by the Ministers of State. X. The report of the commission having been discussed, the Chamber will proneed to vote successively upon each of the articles, whether or not the accusation' should be made. XI. The affirmative decision will produce a strict decla ration, the effect of which to the Minister will be— 1. His suspension from the exercise of all public functions whatever, and his inability to resume them until the final sentence is pronounced. 2. His subjection to a crimin a l accusa ti on an d d e li verance before the tribunal of the Peers. 3. His arrest, whether the accusation turn upon a capital crime, or be such as may deserve the penalty of degradation or imprisonment for more than one year. XII. The Chamber will elect by an absolute majority , among its member from three to five commissioners, to pro pound, prosecute, and prefer in its name, the accusation be fore the Peers ; and for this purpose they will be invested with their respective diplomas, which will be immediately annexed to the process, and transmitted therewith to the tribunal. TITLE 3. OF THE ORDER OP THE JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS. Art. XIII. The President of the Chamber of Peers will be the relater of the process, and he will take for his asso ciates two peers, who may be specially elected by an abso lute majority. XIV. The relater, if the accused should be in custody, will direct him to take his seat according to the regulation of the Tribunal, but if he should be at liberty, he will summon him before it at a term as short as possible, by means of citation direct, or an edict conformably to law. XV. There being no default in appearance, the reporter, with his associates, will, after the appointed day, interrogate the accused, examine the witnesses, and enquire again into whatever other circumstances may appear to him proper for the elucidation of truth, including in his inquiries those points which the accused may refer to for his defence. All these proceedings will be stated in writing, with the legal formalities, and attached to the process. XVI. These preparatory proceedings, essentially neces sary for the complete information of the reporter and his associates as to the state of the question and the resources for the accusation and defence, being concluded and re duced to writing, the Chamber of Peers will determine the day on which it is to be constituted into a Court of Justice and open for the discussion and decision of the cause. The commissioners for the impeachment, the accused, if he be not in custody, and the witnesses both for the charge and the defence, shall be summoned by the Court. If the Chamber should think proper, it will invite the attorney of the crown and some judges of the Supreme Tribunal of Justice, to be present at the sittings, and to give their opi nion on points of law respecting which the tribunal may de sire to be informed by them. All the absent Peers will be summoned by a special letter from the President, and in the public audience, after their names are called over, an ac count shall always be given of the causes of the absence of those who do not appear. XVII. All the documents of the process will be open in the office of the Secretary of the Chamber, as well for all the members of the Chamber as for the commissioners for the impeachment and the counsel of the accused. XVIII. The Chamber constituted into a tribunal, and presided over by the Reporter, assisted by two associates, will hold as many public audiences as may be necessary for the proposing of the impeachment, the interrogatory of the accused, the examination and confronting of the witnesses, the allegation of the parties, and the pronunciation of the sentence. XIX. The accused, without alleging cause, may except against the eighth part of the Judges present ; the same will be permitted to the Commissioners. These exceptions will not be admitted, unless made before the commence ment of the production of evidence. XX. The accused may retain as many counsel as there are Commissioners ; but when there are many accused, each may retain two counsel, though their total number should be greater than that of the Commissioners. The counsel must be selected from the class of jurisconsults. XXI. The judicial discussion having been concluded, the reporter, suspending the public audience, will retire with the whole of the Judges to another chamber, where the re port of the whole of the process will be made in detail, and the discussion opened on the merits of the accusation and the defence, which being terminated, the votes will be taken, and in accordance with them the sentence recorded, with the grounds thereof, which will be signed by all the Judges, an d rea d i n th e i r p rese n ce , an d th a t o f th e parties in public audience. The documents will remain in the ar chives of the Chamber, and from them will be extracted This election commenced at 10 o'clock on Saturday morning. The candidates were James Aspinall, Esq. and Isaac 0. Bold, Esq. The votes of the freemen were taken in booths erected for the purpose in front of the Town-hall, the polling being alphabetically, and not, as heretofore in elections for Mayor, by tallies. Each candidate displayed flags and banners painted expressly for the occasion. Bands of music were also engaged, and cars, coaches, and omni buses employed to convey the freemen to the poll. In fact, the preparations for the election of Mayor were on a scale commensurate with those for the election of Members of Parliament ; so extravagant are the good people of Li verpool in their mode of conducting every. electioneering matter, the result of a long series of expensive contests for' the rnayorality and the representation of the town. Great apprehensions were entertained, by parties who knew the freemen • and their hebits well, that they would demand either money or drink for their votes, and that, as neither drink nor money could be safely given, there would be great di:liculty in getting them up to the poll. Both money and drink were, as a matter of course, demanded, but whether ether or both was given we have not the means of knowing, though, from the state of the freemen, numbers of whom were drunk, it is surmised that ale had been very copiously administered to thirsty souls. Be this as it may, the worthy and independent freemen did not come up to the poll with alacrity, and an. election which might have been concluded, from the facility of voting, in a few hours, continued till nine o'clock at night, when Mr. Aspinall was elected Mayor. At the final close of the poll the numbers stood thus Aspinall Bold 836 Majority for Aspinal' . 154 Messrs. Lace and Higginson were elected Bailiffs. THE LATE CONFLAGRATION. When the flames were raging with their greatest fury, Lords Melbourne and Hill were in the house exactly facing St. Margaret's Church, giving directions and animating the efforts of the soldiery and firemen engaged in the attempt ! „ to subdue the fire. The coolness with which Lord'' in particular behaved while all around him was dismanok4 confusion, was remarked with admiration by all who nessed it, and that sang froid which forms such a striking characteristic of the Noble Commander-in-Chief on the field of battle was evinced in a remarkable manner on the occasion. The flames burst into the house and were rapidly spreading towards Lord Hill when a person came hastily to' him and begged him to retire, as there was great danger , -: The messenger, perhaps underrating his Lordship's capacity to " stand fire," was cooly desired to let his " Lordship alone," and then Lord Hill proceeded to complete some t -Z directions which he was just giving to those below. At length the firemen commenced playing into the House. His Lordship's " tactics" appeared to be at fault in such a novel element, and accordingly, he beat the chainade and de wended the staircase, not, however, until both he and the 1 . . Noble Secretary for the Home. Department had received a handsome wetting from the deluge which poured into the house from the engines. Mr. Leary, the Librarian of the House of Commons'' was singularly unfortunate. He had been insured to the '- amount of 6001. for some years past, and having gone out of town without paying his insurance, he gave instructions to a friend to do so for him ; this, however, was neglected, and the term allowed by the fire offices beyond quarter-day only expired on Tuesday, two days before the lamentable occurrence which destroyed nearly the wholee, of his pro perty.- We were present at the destruction of the Irish House of Commons in 1791, but that spec4cle, grand as it was, fell far short of the sublimity of the scene on Thursday night. The former took place at Six o'clock on a summer's evening, and was attributed to the negligence of seate plumb:rs who had been at work on the roof. The HouSe was in debate at the time, and the discovery was first made by the Sergeant-at-Arms, who, opening a trap door in the dome, gave notice of the impending danger. The Members were seized with terror, and fled in all direc tions ; but the Speaker, Mr. Forster, had presence of mind to put the question, " That this House do now adjourn," and scarce had he, accompanied by the Deputy-Sergeant, who carried the mace before him, quitted the chair, when the dome fell in with a terrific crash. The injury was principally confined to _tlae rout and the body of the tiouse. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Leeds Intelligencer) LEEDS.—The woollen trade still continues dull at this place, occasioned partly by the high price of wool, but chiefly by the rcccnt failures in London. It is, however, expected that two or three weeks will restore the confidence of mercantile men, and that the general aspect of commercial affairs in this district will be improved. Very few purchases of winter goods have yet been made, and as the stock; are understood to be low when the demand revives it will be acicantageously felt by the operative classes. RRADFORD.—The market on Thursday was much better than last week. There was a good demand ti;y hog wools, which were rather scarce, but very little business w*.as done in wether fleeces. In the yarn market better prices wefe given for lasting warps and weft, and ether descriptions were more in request, though without improvement as to terms. The transactions in the piece market were almost as limited as last week, the merchants still using great caution in their pur chases, though it is understood that their stocks are low. The impression still maintains that wools must fall in price before trade becomes really brisk. HALIFAX.—At our market on Saturday last there was a larger attendance of buyers than usual, and a good deal of business was done. With the exception of fine lastings, six quarter merinos, and plainbacks, almost all the goods were bought up, but no improvement in prices was effected. Last ings pf low qualities were in request. Yarns continue nearly stationary in price. HUDDERSFIELD.—This market was very flat on Tuesday. The attendance of buyers was limited, and the sales propor tionably few. ROCIIDALE.—There has been a better demand at this day's (Monday's) market for fine qualities of flannels, and dry goads for dyeing were in much request at the prices of last week. Middle sorts were dull sale, as the buyers wanted them at lower prices, but the manufacturers seemed deterroined rather to keep their goods than to sell at the prices offer-0 them. Low c,ualities were same as last week, and the wool market remains stationary. STATE OF THE SILK AND COTTON TRADE IN LANCASHIRk;.. —The silk trade has within the last fortnight become very dull; the manufacturers attribute it to the rise which has taken place in the raw material. The weavers are waiting for a. warp eight or ten days, and some masters are bind/ng them to be five weeks on a piece, which is not more than half employ ment. Several of the manufacturers are changing coarse reeds to finer ones, which is an unusual thing at this season of the year. The nankeen and gingham trade is very much im proved. The quilting, printing, spinning, and steam-loom weaving businesses at Ramsbottom, near Bury, are in full ac tivity. There seems to be at present a good prospect for the cotton trade in Lancashire. (From the Manchester Courier.) STATE or TRADE IN MANCIIESTER.—Another spring in the cotton market has taken place since our last number, and, from present appearances, there is every probability that the im provement will be lasting; the season of the year as well as the general healthy state of trade being such as fully to war rant this conclusion. It may with consistency be said, in re gard to our manufacturing policy, that, though still capable of further and very great amelioration and improvement, yet, con sidering the short time for operation which has been given to the several new measures affecting it, the system is working well. We question whether, in regard to our local establish ments generally, business was ever known to have been on a more sound and stable footing. • BLACKBURN .— For several weeks past the demand for hand-loom cloths has declined ; and, although we have not experienced, as f ormer l y , difficulties amounting almost to impracticability of effecting sales even at great sacrifices, yet with no scarcity of good houses in the market the prices to be realized will not cover the cost. The state of things in the face of approaching winter, and the certainty of an advance upon materials, augurs unfavourably for the conti nuance of the present rate of wages. We hope, however, that the very extended field now open to merchants Will cause this apprehension to be groundless. TRADE AT PRESTON.—WC are glad to state that the cotton trade, more particularly the spinning, in this place is in a very brisk state, and every hand willing to work is in employment. Sites are bought f or new factories, which are about to be built ; one in the North-road, for power looms, will cover an acre and a half of ground. We are told that the contract for flagging this building is thirteen hundred pounds. Should trade continue good we believe the probability is that ten new factories will be in the course of erection here within the next twelve months. Saturday, an inquest was held at the White Horse, Market-place, Old Brentford, on the body of Miss Elizabeth Reynolds, a young lady o f high respectability. The d ecease d resided with her mother, a widow lady, and two sisters. On Friday last she was in good health and spirits ; she retired to bed about nine o'clock at night, previous to which she had complained of a tooth - ache , and expressed her intenti on o f having it extracted on the following day. One of the sisters s lot with the deceased, and on awaking in the morning turned towards the deceased, calling " Lizzy" at the same time kiss ing her cheek, which she (the sister) had no sooner done than - she gave a scream, and sprang from the bed, discovering that her much-attached sister was apparently a corpse. Mr. Hall,- a surgeon, gave it as his opinion that the rupture of a blood vesselon the heart was the cause of death, and that the young '" lady had gassed from sleep to eternity.—Verdict, " Died by - the visitation of God,"
