THE FLAGS OF ENGLAND AND FitANCE. " The flags of England and France combined form, in the European Heavens, the Rainbow of Liberty." How full.of thought ! How simple and grand in their truth, are these words, falling from the lips of the man who accepted power with the mission "to close the era of revolutions"—upon whom empire was conferred, and who proclaimed that it was "Peace"—and whose first act, upon accession to an almost despotic throne, was to seek the alliance of the freest people of Europe. With what patriotic dignity he has fulfilled his duties, with what honesty kept to his engagements, we all know ; and of all the Potentates of Europe none owns a loftier or a more popular fame than the present Monarch of France. The power con ferred on him by the will of the French people was, we have just said, almost despotic. But Napoleon was not the man to become a despot. If he ac cepted power, it was not for the idle and infamous purpose of ruling, robbing, and ruining a great people, but rather to heal the wounds of re peated domestic conflicts, to crush license and exting uish faction, that he might raise anew the political edifice, "to be crowned," as he has declared, with "Liberty." Of his sincerity what proof more convincing than that he refused the territorial aggrandisement which he might have purchased when, had he joined the despotic alliance of Russia, and by con niving at her designs in the East, and delivering Eastern Europe into the power of the Autocrat, he might have seized upon and secured the West as his own. But Louis Napoleon is no despot. He is the first of Frenchmen—the living embodiment of the will of the French people, with w h om , on a ll occas i ons , he identifies himself. He is the repre sentative of the nation which has shed so much blood, and suffered so repeatedly for " Liberty," and, in accordance with the national spirit, he has spurned theft and the temptations of Nicholas, and has refused to betray the French people and the liberties of Europe. • Instead of this, he has allied himself closely with us in the cause of right, repu diating conquest and self-aggrandisement—drawing the sword in defence of the weak, for the re storation of the balance of power, and the perma nent freedom of Europe. .In the great struggle which we have undertaken, with God's blessing, we shall succeed ; but when we have triumphed—when - we have hurled back the legions of Russia—when we have annihilated her power in the Black Sea and the Baltic, to what great results may we not look. Well may Louis Napoleon call our alliance " the Rainbow of Liberty," full of promise to Europe. How great a thing will it not be for Italy—for Austria—for all Garina,ny, when they are freed front the deadening influences of Russia. Well may Napoleon foretell the " destruction of depotism," when it has been strut zto the heart in its great stronghold. Austria must then adopt a more liberal policy. No Russian hosts will again crush Hungary. The intrigues of despotism against Sardinia must come to au end ; that State which owes its existence at this moment to France and England need then no longer dread the suppression of its free institutiens. Naples and Tuscany, Bavaria and Saxony, with all the petty Potentwes of Bamberg, will be freed from the influence which has instigated them to - ill, and which has supported them in it. The Rainbow of Liberty is in the skies, and the nations of Europe will accept with avidity and gratitude the blessed boon given to them, and guaranteed by the two Great Western Powers. Whilst making these reflections, it is impossible for us not to recall, with just pride, that, from the first, we Barr and understood the character and policy of Louis Napoleon, and we may be excused if we indulge the expression of our heartfelt satis faction at the great and cordial alliance which is at this moment the admiration of the world—an alliance which we have uniformly used our strong est endeavours and the whole of our humble influ ence to promote. We do not wish to recall the faults or follies of others. But we are proud in the reflection that, as in other matters, so in the matter of foreign policy, and more especially with regard to France and the French Emperor, this journal has maintained, through good report and through evil report, a steady, a consistent, and an English course.—Morning Post. THE 'WORKING MAN. When we entered upon our great European war, our population was less than half what it is now. Lavish as was the squandering of trea &ire the expenditure of blood was greater. In the Army and Navy, not less than five hundred thousand of our most able-bodied producers were drawn from the labour to the killing market ; and yet, withal, our productive powers increased so rapidly (almost in the ratio of the decrease in our workers) that the waste wa.s more than supplied bythe increase; and we fought Napoleon, the great weaver in the loom of fate, with our weavers in cotton and in wool. Money was found whenever money was wanted for the purpose of destruction ; and yet it was never deaf to the calls of commerce. We have now more than double the capital we then possessed, and a great deal more than double the population —yet we are greatly more sensitive to the perils of war—our funds and our trade are in a far more nervous state. We seem as if we could bear the drain of hostilities less easily—the burden of taxa tion less lightly—the drafts upon our population less conveniently. Consols tumble to 85 upon the mere rumour of a " brush with the Russians"—stock of all kinds suffers sudden and extensive fluctuation and reduction ; and although the workhouses are practically empty, the security of the supply of labour is " a mote to trouble the mind's eye." When a stone-mason can get two guineas a clay in Australia, and a common "from hand-to-mouth." Irish bog-trotter can become a landed proprietor in America, there is nothing indeed to create sur prise in this. When also it is remembered that free trade has emancipated the sons of toil perma nently from all exorbitance of price for the neces saries of life--has greatly reduced the taxes on con sumption and proiluction, transferring them to rea lised property, and has opened the commerce of the world to us Just at the very nick of time of the gold discoveriesof Californhand Australia, it follows with the direct sequence of a corollary, that the condi tion of the manual workers of the world should be elevated in a ratio much more comparatively great than that of any other class. Nor do we see any prospect of reaction, or of a future glut. Emigra tion grows by what it feeds on. One settler giyes courage to and facilities for another. The home heart goes across the broad Atlantic, or doubles the Cape with the sons, mothers, or sisters that have wandered thither ; the home affection rises on the ashes of the hearth of mere nationality. Then trade and commerce gradually follow the stream of mov ing human life. The divers of nuggets, and the fellers of the great forests draw around theca para sitical trades, and ancillary caterers for their wants and appetites—the preponderance first, the equilli brium afterwards, of affection and population to the old country is overcome ; and we see that in Ireland cheap land and high wages fail to arrest the migra tory instincts, or the new convictions of the people. At last they even prefer poorer fare in the new re gion of their fancy, to improved conditions in the country of their birth. Perhaps the facts we see around us now account for the mysterious decay of :peat nations. A hankering after " untried being" becomes a furor of flight, and suggestions of self-interest utterly fail to arrest the desire for change. It cannot be that labour should go, and that capital, enterprise, and ability, or skill, should• re, main behind. The-brain-worker must ha ve hi s Mole. The merchant must follow his customers. The seller must go where buyers have money. Where th e thered, carcase is there will the eagles be ga- We are, in this old world and this old country, in a State just now of most critical transi tion.

It wi re :quire toady and a wise head to bear this overflowi e c cup ct Nothino• but the Sagacity 9 steadily to the lips. o r ° the labourer can save him from the great injury of all other classes, and the ruin of his own. Th e significant fact is before us, that ono of the best re munerated and largest bodies of workers in this kingdom refuse to toil for more than a sixth part of the day—that as yet they have con trived to rule their employers, and enormously tax the public-- _ life, for that in reference to a great necessary of . for whi c h th e p re s e nt consumption is materially contracted by the season, they manage to increa se the pric e . Wh a t it w ill be in winter is an anxious consideration to the community. It is not to be concealed that the poor are chiefly interested in moderating an excess in the wages of labour. For every shilling more paid to the worker the consumer has to pay at least eighteenpence. An advance in wages in one direction is equalised ultimately by an increase in another. If the collier for heating the baker's oven, or for the fuel of the flour-mill steam-engine thebaker must have more for his bread. If the farmer gets high prices for his cattle, or the grazier for his wool, he has to pay more for the leather a his silos and halms, and au advance to the tailor and hosier on his clothes. At first sight, indeed, this seems to result merely in a theory of compensation. But under a system of free trade ' its end must be the ruin of trade. Our chief, in deed our sole, dependence for progress, for exist ence as a nation, is on our foreign trade. We have long ceased to supply ourselves with food and other articles of necessity from our own resources alone. We consume at least sixty millions' worth of foreign necessaries annually, besides all the raw materials of our chief manufactures. These must all be paid for, and foreigners will not pay for what we produce more than they can get the ar ticles for elsewhere. If, therefore, strikes present difficulties in the way of our capitalists, and exor bitant wages force up our prices beyond the level of the market of the world, it is not difficult to foresee that our trade must be destroyed, that our capital must go abroad for investment, and that our workers must follow, reducing by their com petition the wages it was their great object to force up. A reaction, indeed, will thereby follow, and an opportunity be once more opened in this country for the revival of our productive industry. But all too late. The convulsions and hazards of former speculations will frighten capitalists from the field, and the continent a Europe, but more certainly the United States, will raise their com merce on the ruins of our folly. Let it be clearly seen, therefore, by our readers of the working classes that—First, No single trade can long enjoy a rate of wages greatly in excess of those of other classes. Even the colliers will attract persons from less liberally rewarded employments; their em ployers will invent contrivances for overcoming the resistance of their tyrants, and the high price of the article will check the demand. Second — If all trades have their wages raised, none will benefit by a general change ofievel, seeing that the increased wages received with the one hand will be absorbed by the enhanced price of commodities paid with the other. Third—While no substan tial improvement in the absolute condition of the labourers will flow from a general exorbitancy of wages, the cost of production will thereby be so raised above the level of that of the rest of the world, that we will he gradually eaten out of ne ural markets and driven even from our own, unless we return to that productive policy which to us would be the end of all things—our exclusion from the circle of the European system and our ultimate certain ruin. Not even in the time of the Corn Laws was there as much need of sending the schoolmaster abroad to teach the people the great elementary principles of political economy. Lord Carlisle would do more good by lecturing on Adam Smith than on Pope ; and if Mr. Dickens must go a humanity-mongering, • lie would show more useful philanthropy iu recom mending sound economical principles than dishing up stupid social prejudices to delegates and turn outs. .But we forget—Mr. Dickens has found out that every thing useful niust be unprincipled and pernicious. At least there is nothing very usefill in " Hard Times "—and, sooth to say, little that is ornamental.--Dispalcii. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 12, 1854, THE PRICE OF WHEAT. No one who has thought on the subject would at tempt dogrnaticahy to predict the price of wheat any more than to fortel future events of any other kind. Unlooked-for circumstances may occur, which may scatter to the winds the most subtle calculations. Not to look further than the obvious vicissitudes in the price of all commodities contingent on the success or othei ' wise of the war in which we are engaged with Russia, it is evident that an epproximation to a reasonable opi nion as to the future price of wheat in this country is all that can be attained. We may, however, advert to a few of the particulars which must influence the price of our staple article of national consumption. The rapid fall in the price of wheat during the past few weeks is one of the most remarkable ever known. A decline of not less than 108. a quarter has in various paces occurred between one, market day and another. Wheat, which early in the year reached from POs. to 100 s. a quarter, may now be obtained for from 50e. to 565, a quarter. Here for the present there is a pause. The London market of Wednesday is reported to have been steady at the decline of Monday. Whence is this extraordinary decline ? It must be attributed to the authentic intelligence which has reached this country of the excellent crops on the continent and in the United States, together with the ascertained fact that our own harvest will be both good in quality awl abundant in quantity. Nor must the general sound ness and extent of the potato crop be overlooked. The potato enters so largely into the consumption of the working classes, that the abundance or deficiency of this esculent exercises a decided influence cn the price of wheat. It seems now to be pretty generally admitted that the recent high price of wheat is not in any great measure to be attributed to the effects of the war. The blockade has not prevented large quantities of wheat finding its way from Russia. to the rest of Europe. ' But there are other most important causes in opera tion. Under protection, with an abundant harvest and a restricted currency, wheat sank in 1835 to an average fur the year of 39s 4d a quarter. Under free trade, the yearly average for 1831 was 33s Cd a quarter. We are now under different circumstances. The gold discoveries of California and Australia tend to keep up the prices all over the world. They do so principally in two ways—by providing money sufficient to allow- trade and commerce to flourish and expand, and by lowering the price of gold as measured in the great article of human consumption throughout the civilised world—corn. Let our agricultural friends then take courage. Vire incline to the opinion that wheat will not sink to the low level which it did when they had protection alone to depend on, ncr to that which it did under the free trade system, unmitigated by the beneficial effects of that providential discovery of gold which is one of the most important occurrences of this most eventful period. The outpouring of gold--itself an event of comparative insig nificance, for how little the wealth of nations depends ou the acquisition of this metal, ruined and impoverished Spain evidences—the out-pouring of gold throughout the world, by correcting the prevalent false systems of money, and particularly the absurd and injurious sys tem established by Peel's Bills in our own country, pas worked, and is still working, most advantageously for the agriculturist as well as for the merchant and ho manufacturer. We have 13 millions of gold in the Bank, the French Bank has 19 millions,- —British India has, it is said, no less than 16 millions of specie in its treasu ries. These accumulations, with the expected imports, will, we trust, keep panic and penury from our doors for the present.—. Derbyshire Courier. VIOLATION OF A GIRL. DORKING, MONDAY.—This little village has for the past fcw days been in a state of great excitement,' in consequence of Mr. George Elton, aged 15, brother-in law of the Hon. and Rev. A. Sugilen, of Newdigate, I Surrey, and George Elphick, aged 20, groom to the hon. gentleman, being charged before Mr. Charles Barclay and Mr. George Cubitt, county magistrates, with having committed a rape upon the person of a girl named I Elizabeth Crauley, aged 16, a house-maid in the employ of Mr. Sugden ; and Maria Fenn, aged 23, a cook in the same establishment, was also charged with aiding and abetting in the commission of the same offence. The follossing evidence wan adduced, after three ad. journments : Mary Elizabeth Crauloy deposed—l am sixteen years old, and am in the service of the Honourable and Reve rend Mr. Sugden, of Newdigate, as a housemaid. I have lived with him about two months. The first time any liberty was taken with me was on Sunday, the 13th of August. About ten o'clock, after the family had gone to bed, on the same evening I went out to the village, and called at Mr. Farrington's, and when I came back I found Charles George Elton and George Elphick smoking and drinking in Elpbick's room, and Maria Fenn with them. I sat down with them, and stopped some time. I asked Maria Fenn if she was going to bed. She said " Yes," and we both walked into our room, and whilst we were undressing, Elton came through our bedroom to go to his own, there being no other way except down-stairs and up another staircase. After Elton had gone through I locked the door, leaving the key inside. We then put out the candle and got into bed. Shortly afterwards Elphick entered our room and unfastened Elton's bed-room door and let him in, and said to him, "You get in on Crau ley's side." I replied, "If you do, I shall tell Mr. Sugden." Elton then got into bed, and Elphick on the side of Maria Fenn. Elphick then leaned over Maria Fenn and took hold of my arms and one of my legs, and whilst I was struggline , and screaming, Maria Fenn put her hand on my mouth, Elton at the same time having his knees on my chest. Elphick then got hold of Maria Fenn by the waist and the hair of her head, and carried her into his bed-room, and in their absence Elton accomplished his purpose. During that time I screamed for assistance, but Maria Fenn said she could not come, for Elphick would not let her. Elton then left, and went into his own room. I then got up and went to Elphick's room, and found Maria Fenn in bed. I remained in the room because I did not wish Elton to be in my room again. I was at this time sitting by the window. After that I went into my own room, leaving Elphick and F enn i n b ed. Elton came through my room again to go to hie own. As he was coming through I re quested:ufsted hi m to ask Maria Fenn if she was coming to bed again. After Elton had gone through, I wont into titillyked M unless ea .

Elphick and Fenn told me not to tell any one, for if I did it would be the worse for me. The first person I spoke t o respectingcircumstance sea the a Mr. F arr i ngton, on Saturday, th e 2d September. Ile said h e h ad heard something about me. I then told him about it, and to me on what Elphick had done Sundayev e ning, 13th of August la st. When I saw the policem an I re quested him to take Elphick into custody in consequence of what ho b a d b ec i postal; that 0_ had done to me at -- - - a public-house. Elphick and Fenn said they were going to be married, and they promised to find nee a home if anything happened. Subsequently to these transactions, in the absence of Mr. Sugden and family, Elphick came home in a state of intoxication, with a loaded pistol, which be dis charged at the complainant, and struck her in the neck, and she fell down ; but, upon her getting up again, she went to Mr. Farrington's, who found her neck bleeding, and applied something to it. The Hon. and Rev. Arthur Sugden (in whose ser vice two of the prisoners are) deposed that on the 13th August the family retired to rest between half-past nine and ten, it being intimated to the servants th•it they could go to bed too. The Rev. Mr. Pigott slept at the rectory that night, in a room adjoining that occu pied by the prosecutrix, and not inure than eight feet from where she was actually lying. He should think that if there had been anything wrong, Mr. Pigitt must have heard it. Suspecting on the 21st August something was going on wrong, witness went up stairs, when he heard a struggling and a voice say, " Let me alone, George." Some one opened the door, but it was immediately closed, and the struggling recommenced. Witness was about to open the door, when the prisoner Maria Fenn came out, hay ing • her hair dishevelled. He at once called her and Elphick into a room, and, after animadverting on their conduct, gave the latter notice to leave. Maria Fenn gave witness notice. After hearing some other evidence, and Mr. Sadler for the prisoner Elton, The Chairman said that, after a patient investigation, the bench had come to the determination of committing the whole of the prisoners for trial. The prisoners were then committed for trial at the spring assizes, and the various witnesses were bound over to prosecute. George Elton was admitted to bail in two sureties of 250/. each. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The September General Sessions of the Peace for the county df Middlesex commenced yesterday at Hicks's Hall, Clerkenwell-green, before Mr. Bodkin. acting as assistant-judge, and a bench of magistrates. There were for trial 85 prisoners charged with felony, and 12 charged with misdemeanour, making a total of 97. Thomas Drew, 24, labourer, Jaccb Kellers, 41, water man, and Caroline Johnson, 26, were indicted for steal ing 16 sovereigns and three knives from the person of James Thorn, a sailor. -The jury, after a short deliberation, acquitted the prisoners. John Hamilton, a respectable-looking lad, sixteen years of age, was indicted for unlawfully at tempting to obtain, by fal-e pretences, from Louisa Vivian, the; sum of one shilling, the money of John Vivian, with intent to cheat him thereof. He had been on bail, and now surrendered and pleaded guilty. Mr. Bodkin sentenced him to one month's imprison ment, one week sllitary. James Connor, 20, labourer, and James Hanny, 23, sailor, were indicted for having feloniously assaulted George Cairns and robbel him of four sovereigns and other moneys. The jury found them both guilty. Mr. IVitham said they were a pair of most desperate scoundrels, and sentenced them each to 14 years' trans portation beyond the seas. POLICE IYTELLIGEIVCE. MANSION-HOUSE.—Various contributions having been a&enowledged for the emigrants' fund, Sir K. W. Carden, in handing in his list of subscribers, said—l think it incumbent upon me to state that, although the public' have come forward liberally upon this oceiteion, I regret to be obliged to observe that the sum at present contributed is quite inadequate to the g - eat oUject of sending the emigrants to their respective destinations. I hope that, under such extreme circum stances, involving the very existence of nearly 200 of our fellow-creatures, into the case of every one of whom strict inquiries have been made, resulting advantageously to their characters, the energetic aid of the affluent and humane contributors to the great charities of the metropelk will be exhibited in a more unquestionable shape. I hope and believe that those powerfd advocates of undeserved distress who may now be in different parts of the country enjoying the blessings which a boun tiful Providence has placed at their command for cha ritable distribution, and who have upon so many occa sions shown that the power has been gratefully received, will not at this moment forgot the poor emigrants who have lost all their honest eernings in the struggle to ob tain in a distant land the means of preventing them from being a burden on their native country. BOW-STREET.—SamueI Alien, a Jew, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Jardine, charged with obtaining goods to the value of nearly 1,0001. from various trades men by false pretences. It appeared that Allen, having become the tenant of a house in Bow street, adjoining the police station, repre sented that he was about to open it as a casino. Builders and decorators were employed to adapt the premises ac-. cordingly, arid orders were given, chiefly to foreigners, to supply the rooms with mirrors, chandeliers, massive furniture, marble tablets, figures, and other sculpture, &c. By stating that he had obtained a license to open the premises as a house of entertainment and dancing saloon, and by advancing a few pounds in one or two cases, he succeeded in getting the goods into his pos. session ; but he had no sooner accomplished this object th in his efforts were directed to the disposal of the same goods, in various quarters, for whatever amount be could obtain for them. Police-constable 27 N, who had been endeavouring to trace the property, was returning through the Lower road, Islington, on Saturday afternoon, when his eye happened to alight upon the prisoner and his wife, who were taking refreshments outside of a tavern. Mr. Lawrence Levy, the prisoner's solicitor, com plained that his client had been locked up since Saturday upon no legal charge. It was a mere affair of debt and credit, and if people thought fit to trust his client with their eyes open, they must abide the consequences. Mr. Jardine said the question was, whether the goods were supplied upon the faith of Allen's representation that he had got a licence to open the house, which was not the fact. His worship then remanded the prisoner till Saturday, intimating that he would accept bail if proper securities could be produced. The prisoner was committed in default. INSULTING OFFICERS OF THE 46th. Yesterday morning, at the Town-hall, Windsor, be fore the Mayor (Mr. J. T. Bedborough), Mr. Alderman Snowden, and Mr. Alderman Berridge, a lad, named Thomas Simms, was charged with insulting Major Max well and Adjutant M'Alester, of the 46th Regiment. The magistrates' chamber was crowded, as also were the ante-room, the staircase, and the passages leading to the hall. Mr. Voules, who appeared for the defendant, asked whether the boy had been received as a prisoner at the poi iee-stat ion ? Superintendent Eagar answered in the affirmative, but added that the defendant was bailed out. Mr. Vonles intimated that the question had been asked more with a view to ulterior proceedings than as bear ing upon the present case. • Major Maxwell was then sworn, and deposed as fol lows :—Yesterday afternoon I was in the High-street with Mr. M'Alester. I heard the words " You don't recollect, do you 9" Mr. MAlester turned round im• mediately ; so did I. I saw a civilian run off at once, down the street. Mr. M'Alester called to an orderly who was behind us to catch him. This was done; he was brought back and handed over to the police. The defendant is the person I allude to. I may as well state that my object is not to have the lad punished on the contrary, I hope he may be discharged ; but I and other officers have been so frequently insulted in this way, of late, by lads, that I thought this was a good opportunity of showing that such insults could not be offered with impunity. I thought the magistrates might give the lad advice and admonition which he would com municate to other lads. Mr. Voules said he was very much obliged to Major Maxwell, inasmuch as it rendered any defence of his client unnecessary. The offence charged was no offence in law, but he must say that whatever might have occurred in another place was nothing now, and gentle. men in the position of the complainants ought not to be annoyed. Major Maxwell said it might be no offence against the law, but it was an offence against the feelings. The Mayor said it was perfectly clear that the charge, as stated by Major Maxwell, constituted no offence in law. The words used by the defendant might or might not apply to recent transactions, and the defendant must be discharged. He would add, however, that the magistrates would be most happy to put a stop to any annoyance which might be offered to the officers or sol diers in garrison ; and he had already given strict orders to the police that if any disturbance arose to take the parties into custody. Any person brought before him under such circumstances would be bound over to keep the peace. He hoped the lad before them would bear this in mind, and warn his youthful companions that they do not for the future, either by word or by, deed, insult any person, whether officer or civilian. Mr. Voules concurred in all that had been said by the mayor, but added that he bad been assured by the boy himself that the expression, "I don't recollect—do you ?" was addressed by him to another boy, and had no reference:to recent proceedings. The Mayor (addressing the audience) said that the observations be had addressed to Simms applied to all present. It was highly desirable, in every way, that no disturbance should take place between the townspeople and the military. So far as the regiment was concerned, he must say that its conduct had been highly creditable. The men had acted in a most exemplary manner, setting a good example to civilians. He trusted that all pre sent would remain quiet, and not allude in an offensive manner to anything that had recently taken place. Major Maxwell and the adjutant then retired, and the court was speedily cleared. FIRE IN WESTMINSTER.—Yesterday morning, about three o'clock, a fire broke out in the Albert Tavern, the property of Messrs. J. T. Taylor and A. Hitchin, licensed victuallers, bituate in Perkin's-rents, Peter street, Westminster. At the time of the discovery of the fire the proprietors of the house and several lodgers were in their beds asleep, but were roused by a police constable, and fortunately escaped is safety. The flames commenced in the bar parlour, and by the exertions of the firemen were confined to that portion of the premises where they originated, but the stock in trade and fix tures were considerably damaged ; the loss, however, being covered by an insurance damag ed with the Pliconix dace: The origin of the fire is not known. SPORTING NOTES. DOINGS AT DONCASTER (MONDAY NIGHT.) Bipeds and quadrupeds are arriving in rapid succes sion, and the High-street is already thronged by the usual miscellaneous assemblage of sporting characters. Subscribers begin to drop into the Betting-room, where I am now writing, the din of tongues is gradually in creasimz, and the popping of corks is beard at frequent intervals. Business, however, has not yet commenced in earnest, but a brisk "skirmishing" conversation is carried on among little groups of turfites with consi derable animation and spirit. As the night advances it is expected that the opponents of the favourite will make a "sortie," and carry the position by a well directed assault. I, however, can perceive that his par tizans are prepared to make a stand against the most determined "bombardment." Rumours are circulated with surprising rapidity, and touts are continually beckoning people mysteriously aside, and whispering "good things" in their ear. Opi nions are still divided about Scott's lot, and the shout of an Acrobat to the rescue is continually raised. The confidence, however, which the supporters of the crack evince is not a little staggering. I am informed that there was no mistake in his trial ; after the York meeting, it is said, he was again put through the mile, and with a satisfactory result. I 'p.m told that he beat Acrobat cleverly by a length. Of Dervish, I can learn nothing worth communicating ; that he will run is very probaAs. An opinion evidently obtains that the Trapper's party are likely to amalgamate their interest with that of Boi ardo's. Be this rumour well-founded or not, I shall still stick to his colours. That the Trapper is not warmly fancied, by the " talent" is evident, and many people— good judges too—say he is "all legs and wings." As 3 set off, however, there are persons whose opinion I valueunhesitatingly, who express their belief in his ability to pull through. Of course lam not acquainted with the private arrangements which his owner may have made. The Knight of St. George is generally liked, but they who have seen him still hint doubts as to his staying powers. The late hour at which I arrived this afternoon has of course prevented my " taking stock" of the animals already located in the town. By the way, Frank Butler is here, looking quite well and strong. He is, lam informed, within a few pounds the Leger weight, and the probabilities of his sporting Lord Derby's colours are not very remote. John Scott's lot came in this evening. The Stakes, which closed this afternoon, obtained un usually large entries, and the prospect of a surpassingly successful meeting is unmistakingly perceptible. For the Cup there are twenty-nine nominations, inclu:ling Virago, Rataplan, Rabg-ill, Typee. Autocrat., Grand In quisitor, Andover, West Australian, Boiardo, Acrobat Dervish, Kingston, and Knight of St. George. After all, this formidable entry may not include the winner of the St. Leger, for the name of the Trapper does not, strange to say, appear among the nominations. The race will be regarded with peculiar interest, and even should the redoubtable Virago dart, I shall with much confidence expect to see West Australian achieve his crowning success. The opinion which I have expressed on the St. Leger I am disinclined to change, although; with respect to Boiardo, it is slightly modified. Time will not allow me to throw more rough notes together.

THE ROYAL PORTSMOUTH, PORTSEA, AND GOSPORT HOSPITAL—The patronage of her Majesty has been given to a bazaar in aid of this valuable institution. It is to be held to-morrow and next day at the King's Rooms, on Southsea Common. This •institution is one that possesses peculiar claims on the friends of the naval and military services, as, in additiun to the great benefit it confers on the poorer classes resident within - the sphere of its operations, large numbers of those who partake of these blessings are the wives and fami lies of men. who are now engaged in defending the honour and interests of the nation. So extensive have been its past operations, and so increased a demand is expected in the future to be made upon its resources, that an enlargement of the building is absolutely a matter of necessity. and it is to provide funds for such enlargement that the bazaar is about to be held. FRIGHTFUL SUICIDE OF A GENTLEMAN TIIROUGH FEAR OF WRITS.—Mr. G. S. Brent, deputy coroner for Middlesex, held an inquest on Saturday, at the Turk's Head Tavern, Charlotte-street, Fitzroy square, touching the death of Mr. Win. Nittle, aged 54, a gentleman re siding; at 13, Charlotte-street,, as above, who committed suicide in his bed-room on Friday morning last, by cutting his threat with a razor. The deceased gentle inan was a native of Liskeard, in Cornwall, and had for merly been in very affluent circumstances, but had be come connected with mining sppculations, which had turned out unfortunate, and which had involved him in considerable pecuniary difficulties for some time past. The jury, after bearing evidence, returned a verdi c t o f " Suicide during a state of temporary insanity." Official notice, has teen sent to W:edli,gton that Ame rman vessels will have the freedom of the St. Lawrence during the deliberations of Parliament upon the 146, procity Treaty -,New Tor. TrOuns, 4ug. 28. , MR. JOSEPH HUME, M.P., IN WIOK. Mr. Hume arrived in this town on Thursday about noon, according to appointment, accompajerl by Sir George Sinclair, Bart., in the carriage of the latter gen. tleautn, and proceeding to the public buildings went up to the town and County Hall, where the council had already assembled to receive theirdistioguished visitors. There was a litig attendance of councillors ; Provost Rhind in the chair. A numerous audience filled the Council-room, and among the gentlemen present were Sheriff Thomson, Sheriff Russel, Captain Tudor, Samuel &nit"), Esq., A. H. Rhind, Esq., jun., of Sib &c. Wien Mr. Hume and Sir George entered the Hall, every one rose and welcomed them with loud cheers. Mr. Hume and Sir George took their places on the right and left hand of the Provost respectively. Alter silence had been restored the Provost rose and addressed• Mr. Hume, giving him a sincere and cordial welcome to Wick, expreeeleg the high appreciation enter tained by the Council; and by all, for his manly consis tency of character, and his persevering advocacy of those principles for the exposition orwhich he had so long and energetically laboured. The Protost then, amid much cheering, presented the hon. gentleman with the burgess ticket, conferring the freedom of the burgh. Mr. HOME then rose, and was received with loud and prolonged applause. After a few preliminary remarks, and referring to the friendship which had existed be tween Sir G. Sinclair and himself for a period of 43 years, Mr. Hume went over a portion of his public career, alluding to his early life, the death of his father when he was still a boy, and his being obliged to de pend on his own exertions, unassisted, save by his mother, the widow of a sea captain. He then referred to education. Before entering Parliament he had been three years engaged advocating the system of Joseph Lancaster, of whose committee he formed a member. That was the time when it was a debateable point whether it was a good thing or an evil to e d uca t e t h e p eop l e . It was alleged by those in the enjoyment of political power that, give the people information and the hold over them would he loosened, and they would become dan gerous subjects. But his answer to this was, the people have rights. Educate them, and they can know and obtain those rights to which they are entitled. He re gretted that any religious difference should interfere with what should be enjoyed by all, but the time was not far distant when ignorance, with the crime and vice which are its consequences, would be greatly modified. Referring to his general political principles, he re marked that on the first great governing principles Sir George Sinclair and himself were agreed. That " that was the best Government which produced the greatest amount of good to the greatest number" had been a maxim of his (Mr. Hume's) friend, Mr. Jeremy Bentham ; it had also been his; and was so still. Alluding to his efforts in the cause of re form, and the opposition be had met, he said he had been charged with a design to pull down King, Lords, and Commons, in order that he might secure something for himself in the general scramble.. This had beet' proved to be wrong, and he w:4l quite right atter all. lie would have gone farther than the bill of 1832, and 'he hoped in another year to see a large mass added to the electoral body. In the course of his remarks, Mr. Hume also mentioned the assistance he had received in Montrose when the reform excitement was at its height, by the fact of there being a committee of working men in favour of the movement. In 1818 ho owed his re turn to working men, and by them he had been . en abled to keep his place. He went to Middlesex fer three.years, but he soon returned to his ,old love, with whom he hoped he should not quarrel, but remain as long as hi; career continued. He mentioned his lay ing open of the public accounts, and lie early attempt at free trade, in' his demand to throw open the East India' trade in 1813. Monopoly was now all peesing away. Referring to reform, he said electors required to referni theieselvee, and not pester mem bers to get places for themselves or their relatives, as was too often .attempted. He spoke of his •antagonism to sinecureships, which were often paiid out of the. pockee II of the poor man, whose poeerty entitled him to more protection. In the civil:service ; the army, and the the navy, he had been the means of effecting a beeeicial change, but his had failed in destroying sinecuiisin in the Church. But that he hoped would yet come. He feelingly alluded to Sir Robert Peel, and tiie recognition by that statesman of the ,principles of free trade, f,r which Mr. Hume had contended for years. After some further ob servations, lie again thanked the Provost and coun cillors for the honour they had conferred on him, and sat down amid much and warm applause, which was frequent throughout his address. Sir G. SINCI:AIR followed, and in an eloquent speech went over some of the remarkable events of Mr. Hume's life, the general respect which he had acquired, and also mentioned his amiable qualifications in private and family relations. Sir George was repeatedly and loudly applaut'ed. The PROVOST thereafter declared the meeting at an end. The magistrates and a few of the gentlemen present at the meeting afterwards had luncheon in Provost Rhind's house. SHIPPING , INTELLIGENCE. CUSTOM-HO — USE, SXPT. 11.
