Ll TERA TUBE, THE _EL YIIV GLUT CHMAN. 3 V oLs. Colburn, London, 1839. The incidents of this romance, though put to gether rather too loosely and hastily, are yet full of interest, so much so, that he who once fairly corn mances the story, will, we are persuaded, not throw it aside till he has completed the perusal. The hero is a young ardent Scottish Lieutenant in the Navy, by name Ramsay, who happens to fall in love with Angela, the daughter of Captain Living stone, on board of whose frigate she is at the time Ramsay first meets her. She returns his attach ment, but so ill conceals her feelings, that her father becomes acquainted with them, and from that moment resolves on the ruin of her presumptuous suitor. At the opening of the narrative, we find the young man under arrest for having struck his supe rior officer, the Captain's son, who entertains an equal dislike of him. A court-martial is soon after wards held, when Ramsay is of course found guilty, and dismissed the service ; but on being taken ashore, is instantly seized by a press-gang, hired for the purpose by the inexorable Captain Livingstone, and brought back again to the frigate, there to serve as a common sailor. While acting in this capacity, he is subjected to the grossest indignities by his tyrannical Commander, and is even threatened with the cat-of-nine-tails; but the night be fore this punishment is to be inflicted, a certain marine corporal Macpherson—a stern mysterious man, whom Ramsay had shortly , before saved from a watery death, enters the Cap tain's cabin, strangles him, and flings the body out of the window into the sea. A few hours, how ever, previous to the discovery of this singular mur der, .Ramsay is conveyed by the Captain's orders, who had suddenly changed his mind about the flogging, to a desert island, where he is left to perish or escape as may happen. Meanwhile the sailors, on hearing of the strange disappearance of their hated Commander, break out into open mutiny, and appoint Macpherson their Captain, who in stantly turns pirate, and cruises for some months in the South Seas, under the disguise of the well known phantom-ship, the Flying Dutchman. In one of these expeditions he unexpectedly falls in with Ramsay, who—after a long residence on the island, where he had renewed his acquaintance with Angela, whom he found one day in the cabin of a stranded vessel, to which her father had transferred :ier—has been taken off by a sloop of war, together with his " lady love," whom he had made his wife, after a true primitive fashion-- namely, by giving her a written agreement to that effect, and reading with her the marriage service from a Bible, which with other articles, he had procured from the wreck. Great is the Pirate Macpherson's joy on again meeting his young friend ; and he endeavours to persuade him to make one of his crew, but Ramsay resists all his entreaties, and remains firm to his allegiance as a British subject, and is therefore detained as a prisoner, but on his parole. In the course of time the pirates are all taken, and Ramsay is tried by a court-martial for the murder of Captain Livingstone ; the evidence is strong against him ; but just at the crisis of his fate, the real Captain makes his ap pearance, and, still retaining his old animosity against him, boldly asserts that he was the man who had entered his cabin by night, strangled him, and thrown him into the sea, where he was providen tially saved by coining in contact with a large frag ment of a floating wreck. Scarcely has the Captain concluded his evidence, when the Pirate, Macpher son, appears, avows himself to be the intended assassin, and, by so doing, obtains the discharge of Ramsay, who, on his whole sad story having been related, is restored to his rank as Lieutenant, and formally married to Angela. As for the Pirate, he escapes, and is proved to be the father of Mrs. Ramsay, by Captain Livingstone's sister, whom he was compelled abruptly to quit on the eve of her confinement, in consequence of having been implicated in the rebellion of Forty-Five. From that period, the Captain wishing to conceal the disgrace of his sister's connection with a Scottish rebel, had brought up the child as his own, the mo ther having died in her travail. The reason of Macpherson's having entered on board the Captain's frigate, is therefore now made apparent. He was anxious in that humble disguise to watch over the interests of his darling daughter. We do not often meet with a ro!nance fuller of wild, exciting incident than the present. The adventures of the pirates and their stern, reserved commander ; the accounts of the mutiny ; of the attempted assassina tion Cap: taro Livingstone ; of the subsequent tropical storm .; and more especially of Ramsay's residence with Angela on the deserted island ;—these various mat ters detailed with consummate skill and anima tion. " The Flying Dutchman" is by many degrees the best of Mr. Neele's works of fiction. LARDIVER'S CYCLOP/EDIA, No. CXVIII. Longman, London, 1839. The Number before us of this popular Miscel lany, forms the sect.-1 volume of a history of Den mark, Sweden, and Nt. the production of a gentleman named Do.thhm. The most entertaining portion of this history is that wherein an account is given of the cosmogony and religion of Scandi navia ; and of the maritime expeditions of the north men during the Pagan times, in the Orkneys, the Hebrides, and Iceland. The volume is embellished with a sketch of the Quay at Copenhagen. SOLITARY HOURS. Blackwood, Edinburgh, 1839. A very pleasing collection of poems from the pen of Mrs. Southey, better known as Miss Caroline Bowles. The lines entitled to a" Dying Infant," we think we have seen before ; they are in the au hoes best manner, and are full of pathos. WONDERS OF GEOLOGY, VoL. Relfe and Fletcher, London, 1839. Dr. Mantel! is the author of this volume, which displays much curious learning and research, and is illustrated with several woodcuts explanatory of the interesting and diversified theme on which the Doctor descants. ENCYCLOPiEDIA BRITANNICA.-VOL. 19, PART 2. Black, Edinburgh, 1839. We have here a variety of well written articles on subjects connected with biography, . history, statistics, geography, and various other branches of literature. Among them is a memoir of the late Sir Walter Scott, for the principal facts in which the author is of course indebted to Mr. Lockhatt's " Life." There is also a biographical sketch of Rous seau, which, though correct and pains-taking enough, so far as dates and facts are concerned, is deficient in critical perspicacity. The remarks in particular on the " New Eloisa," and on Rous seau's still more striking posthumous work, the " Confessions," are very meagre and common-place, " There needs," to quote Hamlet's language, "no "host to rise from the grave to tell us" that the former work " has its beauties as well as its faults," and latter is " a very dangerous book." We knew -11 this before. The soundest critical remark e 4, with on the " Eloisa," is that made by ced it to be a lumbering piece we ever m p:e:c s t ul i a:ntry. The articles on " Scot land"are penned in a neat, con densed,Encyclo. pxdic . style, and, of Scott, s e n t w i Fn h e o n,t p ,a ri t and h o l v y hat :estrieted limits, furnish considerinagndatiletiorrsooumg us with a vast amount ofusefut mps. knowledge.a The Part contains several well -executed -----,----- Sir Charles and Lady Coote are entertaining 4 Party at Ballyfinn, Q ue en's county.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRI:)AY, NOVEMBER 15 , 1839. RIOTS AT NEWPORT. --42 - .-- NEWPORT, Nov. 13.—1 send you herewith the par ticulars of the examinations of this day, and you will perceive by them that the Chartists, in their insane efforts to destroy the foundations of civilised society, have been using all the means of which they are capable to win over the soldiers to the adoption of their vision ary principles. In order to effect this, lam informed, upon good authority, that tracts peculiarly adapted to the object which it was intended they should effect have been thrown at every opportunity into the way of the military, by being placed in the houses upon which they were billetted. I have just seen a seditious Chartist publication, which, in order to render its contents familiar to the Welsh peasantry, has been printed in their lan guage and gratuitously distributed amongst them. It is written by Hugh Williams, the author of " The Horn of Liberty," which I have already sent you. I am authorised to state, that a me morial has been presented by the Magistrates to the Marquis of Normanby, Home Secretary, and the Commander-in-Chief, Lord Hill, praying that they will represent to her Majesty's gracious consideration the claims of Capt. Stack, Lieut. Gray, Ensign Stack, and Sergeant Daly (who was badly wounded), the officers who commanded the gallant little band of the 45th, who so successfully defended the Westgate Hotel, and saved the town of Newport from destruction, on the day of the riots, on Monday, November 4, inst. Alarming rumours have just reached Newport that large numbers of the Chartists are assembling secretly round Merthyr. Colonel Considine has been despatched by express for the purpose of making arrangements for the safety of the neighbourhood, fearing that a general outbreak will take place. These rumours have excited much appre hension, whether well or ill founded. WEDNESDAY MORNING.-EIGHTH DAY. Magistrates present—Rev. James Coles (Chairman), Octavius Morgan, George Hall, and William Brewer, Esqrs., and R. J. Blewitt, Esq., M.P. ♦lso Maule, Esq., Treasury Solicitor, W. T. H. Phelps, Esq., and Thomas Protheroe, Esq., Crown Solicitors, and Thomas Jones Phillips, Esq., clerk to the Magistrates. A communication was this morning received by T. J. Phillips, Esq., clerk to the Magistrates, from Samuel Homfray, Esq., the managing proprietor of Tredegar Ironworks, where 5,000 men are employed, of which the following is an extract : " The minaunt of wages which the men at our works receive, are as follows :—Miners and colliers, 225. to 245. per week ; furnacemen, 30s. ; pudlers and heaters, 355. ; rollers, 50s. to 60s. ; fitters.up, smiths, pattern makers, 255. ; carpenters, 21s. ; moulders, 245. ; masons, 205.; labourers, 2s. to 25.4 d. per day. Our men are now at work ; that is, those that are here ; but there are a good many missing." It must he under stood there are but very few labourers employed there. The first prisoner placed at the bar was Ebenezer Williams, charged with harbouring Chartist traitors. James Jones sworn and examined—l live in Victoria square. I am a special constable. I have known the prisoner twelve years. He is a tiler and plasterer. He keeps the Prince of Wales beer-house in Commercial road, in Newport. I have heard that Chartist meetings have been held in his house. I heard there was one held in his house on Friday night week. I heard it from a man that works for him. I know that a large room has been built adjoining his house for the purpose of holding Chartist meetings. I was in the prisoner's house on Thursday, the 7th of November. I asked the prisoner's servant for a light of a candle. She told me her master had built a new Chartist lodge, but it ap pears it will be of no use to him now, for the Chartists run away." I was in the new room on the 7th of No• vernber. I should think it would hold 200. I am no Chartist. Ido not know the prisoner is a Chartist. Chas. Groves sworn, and examined by Mr. T. J. Phillips—l live in Pentonville, in the borough of Newport. I am a painter and glazier. I have at tended Chartist meetings in this town. I attended a fortnight or three weeks ago. I have not attended 011 D since they were at the Prince of Wales, the prisoner's house. I think I attended last yesterday fortnight. I saw there Charles Waters, who has been committed for high treason. I saw Henry Frost, the son of Mr. John Frost, who has been committed for high treason. I saw Mr. Townsend, the lawyer. there. Ido not know any others who were there. I did not see the prisoner there. There were about twenty persons in the room. I did not hear any person address the meeting. I paid a penny to Charles Waters that night ; it was for my admission into the room. I picked up a newspaper that was in the room, and read it. There were Vindi cators there as well. I did not read the Vindicator. I saw no other papers there. I have seen Edward Frost at one of the meetings ; I cannot tell which. I have attended a meeting of boys in the same room. I have been present once. About eight were present. I have seen Henry Frost there. He was treas.' '""of the Boys' Society. At the Boys' meeting Fir': \ any cards delivered. 1 saw young Frost'" previous to the riot% No convers4o Veen us. I only passtl the Pit showed me a card soon aft - -f The card produced is The followite 4, Newt ort, tocratic As " Union is c Entered " Henry FA • Nretary. Maria Sackarg ; sworn y Mr. T. J. Phillips—l am servant to the and lived there a fortnight. He keeps a beet'. .=ailed the Prince of Wales, in Commercial-road, o. isite the Salutation, There is a large room attached to my master's house. It has been used for holding Chartist meetings ; it is commonly called the Chartist-room. They met there last Friday week. A great number of persons attended that meeting ; the room appeared to be quite full. There were about one hundred persons there. I have seen a copy of the receipt for rent for that room. I saw it lying on the dresser. My mistress took it up and put it in her pocket. From that receipt it appeared that the rent was 161. per year, paid by Mr. Charles Waters, for Mr. Wells, for the rent of the room. Mr. Wells rented the room for the Chartists from the prisoner. Ido not know whether any money was paid for admission to the meetings, I have never seen any Chartist cards at the house. Last Sunday week the prisoner said to my mistress that he was very sorry he had let the room to such a set of scamps and vaga bonds, meaning the Chartists. I have not known a meeting of boys held there. I have heard there has been. This closed the case for the prosecution. Mr. Clarke then called The Rev. James Francis—l am minister of St. Paul's Church, in this town. I have known the pri soner upwards of four years. I have had some conver sation with the prisoner relative to a meeting that was held in his house. I have had various conversations. When I heard that Williams had let the room to the Chartists I told him that I thought he was very wrong, which would b e sure to involve him in trouble. He asked me what I had to do with it. The room had cost him a considerable sum of money, and the Wharf Company would not allow him to convert it into a dwelling-house without paying extra ground rent, and he could i not afford t o a ll ow i t to remain idle ; he there fore let tto the Chartists. I have known the prisoner four years, and, with the exception of this Chartist busi ness, I have thought favourably of him. William Davies e xam i ne d b y Mr. Clarke—l am a mason, and reside opposite the prisoner. I have worked with him. I have conversed with him respecting Chartism many times in his own house, the first about four months ago. He always detested the creed, and said it would be much worse whenever it passed. He has told me that he thought about making a reading room of the large room up stairs. He never told me he had let it for a reading-room. He told me he had let it for a warehouse to Mr. Wells. He lives in his own house. It has been built eight or nine years. The room has been covered in about three years. Cross-examined by Mr. T. J. Phillips—Mr. Wells is a merchant in this town. I have lived in Newport nine years. Ido not know who attended the meeting. I have seen people walking in the read. I have seen Homer walking that way. I have seen him having a glass of beer. I have seen Mr. Roche there. Mr. Homer is a shoemaker. He is lame. He sells newspapers. I have Lot seen him since the riot. Mr. Roche is a Chartist. I have heard that he at tended the Chartist meetings. I have never seen Henry Frost there. I do net know him. I am no Chartist. I have never seen John Frost there. I never was in the Chartist room. The Rev. J. Coles then addressed the prisoner, and said that, as no evidence had been brought forward to prove he was a Chartist, he should bind him over in his own recognizance in the sum of fifty pounds, to answer any charge that may be brought against him at the next general gaol delivery. Samuel Victory and William Morgan were then placed at the bar, charged with inciting the military to desert. Edward Dalton, private in her Majesty's 45th—I have been twelve months a soldier. I know the pri soner Victory. I remember the 10th of October. I was opposite the King's Head at five or six o'clock. I met a man who welcomed three of us who were together to town. Victory, the prisoner, was the man. He ap peared as if he had been drinking. He took the three across the street into a public-house. He called for four glasses of rum, one for himself and one for us three, who were soldiers of the 45th. Each of us drank it. He then ordered some more, another round ; that was four glasses. Victory began a conversation about the Charter business. He asked us to hold out in the manly cause as they were holding out (we were speaking of the Chartists), and by that means we should obtain 2s. 6d. a day. He asked me if thing s came to a point whether we should fire on them, and I said that we should do our duty as soldiers. None of the soldiers paid for the rum. He ordered it. W e stayed there about ten minutes. He came as far as the door with us. There we parted, and we came home to our barracks. I have never seen him since. Cross-examined by Victory's son—The prisoner was not quite drunk when he took us into the house. John Clarke sworn— .ng. I I am a private i n the 45th. Have h- en thirteen mo n th s . I w as here on the 10th of last month, b e t ween fi ve an d s i :. in the evening. was walking tow ar d s th e b r id ge . 1 • me t opposite the King's Head the p r i soner Vi ctory . There were three of us. This witness then corroboratk. 'd the first nwit ness's evidence, and i n a ddi t i on sa id th e ' r isoner asked.ter them to come do wn t o hi s h ouse w h en th e y were at li berty. He did no t t e ll me w h ere h e lived. I after_ wards saw hint on the Saturday following, and he ,‘ 3 ked me and my comrade to go and have a pint of beer. . 1 ‘ 1 ) . comrade's name is Barr, and he is now confined for de-- sertion. He told us to go to a public-house, and he would be with us in a few minutes. We went to the house called the Wheel. It is on the road going out of the town. We went there, and had two pints of beer. The prisoner Victory did not come after wards. The prisoner told me his name, but I do not remember it. We were coming out and met the prisoner, and we told him that I and my comrade had made up our minds to desert, and asked him if he could find us any clothes ; and he said it was a very serious ma,`.ter, and he did not think he could, as h e h a d a goo d t natty children to support. He then left us, and soon car ne back with an old paper cap. He said that was all he could give us. I then left him and journeyed cn the ;road, and met with two young men, who appeared tob3farmers. We told the farmers that we intended to desert, and asked for clothes. We went with them about four miles, and they took us to an old barn, and then fetched us some clothes. We staid there that night. We left next morning, and went through Pont-y-pool as far as Blaenavon. We left the military clothes behind us. At Blaenavon we inquired for work. The two farmers took us to a public-house. Before we went to the barn, we had a pint or two of beer. The farmers ordered the beer. The public-house was on the side of the highway. Ido not know the sign. We got there about half past nine : it was dark. It was about a mile or a mile and a half from Newport, on the right-hand side of the road going from here. When we got to Blaenavon we got no work, and my comrade fell ill. I then left him, and on Monday morning I eame back to Newport. I got here by about three o'clock in the afternoon. J. Barr is now a prisoner. After deserting I was afraid of the consequences, and I came back. I saw the prisoner Victory on the morning of the row just by here : 'twas after the row. As we came down with Lieutenant Gray's party I saw some one Ike the pri soner standing on the top of Charles-street, and ho smiled. I have been in Morgan's (the other prisoner) house since ; Morgan's wife asked me something about Barr, Ido not recollect what. I think she asked me how ha was. I do not recollect her asking whether Barr had told anything yet. This was last Monday fortnight. (The witness repeatedly said that he could not tell which it was ; whether the prisoner Morgan's wife asked me then how Barr was, or has Barr told anything.) The Rev Mr. Coles then addressed the last witness, and admonished him as to his past conduct, and recom mended him to leave off going into (the curse of this country) beershops, and dram-drinking, and to conduct himself in future so as to deserve the credit of belong ing to one of the first regiments in her Majesty's ser vice. He then addressed the prisoner Morgan, and said that it was very lucky for him that there was no evidence to inculpate him, but advised him to be cautious. He was then discharged ; the other prisoner was re manded until to-morrow morning. The Court rose at eight o'clock. The examination of young Frost is expected to come on to-morrow. WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF CHAIZTISM. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Siit,—ln times like these I hold it to be the duty of every man, howover humble his statio❑ in society, to come forward and lend a helping hand in administering relief to the sickened minds of the people. With a population disaffected almost to rel;ellion, commerce sunk nearly to depression's lowest point— Government enfeebled by the sordid and conflicting interests of the different classes who require, and who ought to seek its fostering care—it is our duty to seek diligently- for the immediate causes of these complicated evils. That there is no effect without its cause is a truism universally admitted ; and the philanthropic mind can not quietly contemplate the existing and most lamentable state of our people, without endeavouring to trace itz sources, and, as far as possible, to alleviate their dig tresses. To what cause then are we to attribute this painfu! , state of things ? Why is it possible that the people can be so easily brought under the damning influence of political demagogues , and mental incendiaries ? For this very simple reason, that they are tif , t better taught ; and grave and solemn as the charge f the feet of the Clergy of this nation, Cr.thoilL, Protestant, and Dissenting, do I lay the miseries that are now afflicting its people. I will not attempt to sketch all the varieties of cha racter in which these gmtlemen appear ; a few will suf fice. There is the Unitarian with his cold philosophy, *and - doubting inquisitiveness ; the Calvinist with hi s election and reprobation, offering himself to the view .of his fellow -creature s as a superior specimen of the Almighty's workmanship, and accompany ing his presumption with Stand by, for I am holier than thou ;" the Methodist proclaiming universal love to God and man, yet giving the lie to his professions, by his puny efforts to repress the human intellect, unless its expansion be accompanied by John Wesl e y's declaration of the superiority of faith over works ; linked in a conferential band of union, and arrogating all but the powers of Omnipotence—the " Church of England" men, w h o , un der the patronageand support o f Hen ry t h e E ighth (by the grace of ---- defender of a d u ltery), fi rst robbed the Cathol i cs o f the i r money and their Ch urc h es, and have ever s i nce b een calling them hard names, and even denying them sal vat;;7,l ; backed and supported by all the powers of State, and the undignifying aristocracy of riches ; from the fat Bishop. with hi s 20 ,000/. per annum, down to the lean and hard-working Curate, who is driven to eke out his wretched pittance of " forty pounds per year," in any way he can, and yet to appear respect able, clothed in black cloth, and self-importance, holding themselves too far aloof from the people with whom they ought to live, and whom they ought to love ; the Catholic priest, lamenting that his " light of other days is faded," and nearly " all its glory past"—who prides himself in defeatiry , to the full extent of his ability the purposes of his Maker, by denying himself the enjoyments of domestic happiness, and refusing to "go forth and multiply,"—claiming to be the lineal, but of course illegitimate descendants of a man who they tell us never had a wife, and proclaiming that without the pale of his Church there is no eternal joy ; and the demure Quaker, with his extraordinary large bump of acquisitiveness, his bleached countenance evinc ing to the world that he and enjoyment are not very well acquainted, and cannot agree, who says h,, only speaks when the Spirit moves, and does little except what either immediately or remotely conduces to his wealth. Such are some of the guiding influences under which the minds of the people are trained ; and can it be won dered at that they produce so much obliquity ? Open your churches and chapels on the week days as well as on the Stindays, and let the buildings be ap plied to useful purposes—to the instruction of youth as well as of maturity—mix more with the people---Nidt them in their garrets and in their cellars—support the weak and feeble—sooth the sufferings of affliction— string up the energies of the strong—incite to virtue more by the exhilirating hopes of heaven, and less by the degrading fears of hell —cease your bickeriogs about creeds and articles of faith of man's wisdom—tell them, as Jesus did, that the whole of the law and the Pro phets consists in loving God with all the soul, and all the strength, and their neighbours as themselves, and you will thus prove that you have some sympathy with the people. You will teach them the extreme folly of pur suing unattainable objects, whether social or political. You will disarm Robert Owen of his costly powers of delusion, by showing them that to establish socialism, he must re-create creation —that so long as men's bodies are of unequal size, there will be inequalities of mental power, and by consequence Inequalities of station and possessions. By conduct such as this you will for ever extinguish Chartism, and you will soon see a really Ch r i s tian Church established, not by law, requiring the protec tion of soldiers and swords and bayonets, and such scenes as occurred at Rathcormac, but established and living in the hearts, the hopes, and the aff ect i ons o f a virtuous people--their country's highest pride and brightest glory. Yours, faithfully, JOSEPH JOHNSON. 69, Vine.street, Cambridge-street, Liverpool, Nov. 15, 1839. Mr. Thornhill and his intended bride, the cousin of Lord Forester, are now at Riddlesworth Hall, in Norfolk, where the marriage will be performed in a few days.

TIDE LATE SUICIDE AT CPIATIIAM.—The proprietors of the Era beg to call the att ent i on of the public to an ar ti c l e w hich appeared in their paper of the 27th ult. on the late catastrophe at Chatham. Their duty to their readers w ould have be en performed by merely r e l a ti ng the facts with regard t o t h e late Mr. Nathani e l I saacs ; but they incautiously inserted also the floating and lying rumours of the town, some of which may be supposed to reflect upon the respectability of the father and brother of the deceased. As the only reparation they can now make, they thus publicly de clare that such rumours, as reported in th e E ra, are wholly false and without foundation, and th ey ta k e t hi s opportunity of expressing their deep regret at having been unconsciously the means of wounding the feelings of parties whose honour and respectability are altoge ther beyond question.—(From the Era of Nov. 10.) MONEY MA . 'ITY E (TIIIIESDAY EVENING.) CHRONICLE.—ConsoIs have not varied to-day. Exchequer bills continue to improve, but there has been no business of any importance transacted in the English funds. Attention begins to be directed to the forth coming official returns of the assets and liabilities of the Bank of England, which may be looked for in a few days. It is confidently anticipated that they will show a considerable increase in the stock of bullion, since the last returns were made publicly. POST.—There was no fluctuation of consequence in the English securities. Consols were statienary all day, and money, for Stock Exchange business, was compa ratively cheap, loans being obtainable at rates ranging from 5 to 7 per cent. per annum, according to the qua lity of the security tendered by way of guarantee, and the standing of parties requiring them. • We have the satisfaction to lay before the public the following communications on the subject of the Colom bian debt : "Mr. G. R. Robinson, the Chairman of the Com mittee of Spanish American bondholders, having ad dressed a letter to each of the Ministers recently ar rived from the States of New Granada, Venezuela, and the Equador, intimating to those gentlemen that the Committee were daily receiving applications from the bondholders for information as to the propositions to be made for the adjustment of the Colombian debt, the following answer has been received thereto : (Copy.) " 1, Dorset-place, Dorset-square, Nov. 12. " SIR-1 have the bonour to acknowledge the re ceipt of your esteemed favour of yesterday. " In reply I beg to inform you that the commission appointed by the Governments of New Granada, Vene zuela, and Equador for the adjustment of the Colombian debt is now actually engaged in its preliminary regula tions : and so soon as its labours are in a proper state of forwardness the commission will be happy to make the necessary communication to the parties interested.— I have the honour to be, Sir, your very obedient ser vant, 44 ' M. M. MOSQUERA. " To G. R. Robinson, Esq., Chairman.' "Similar answers have been received from Senor Fortique, the Minister from Venezuela, and Senor Ge ral, the Minister from the Equador." HERALD.—lndependently of the severe depreca tion which the proceedings of the United States Bank have called down upon itself by attempting to the last hour, as it were, to struggle against the vicious monetary system imposed upon it and the great community of the federal union, by the financial deeds of General Jackson and his successor Mr. Martin Van Buren, through the means of trading in merchandise and the eternal hypo thecation of produce, for the sake of keeping up the ball of artificial, or rather, spurious credit, there is amongst the rational portion of our fellow-citizens much sympathy expressed for the delicate position in which Mr. Jaudon has been placed, by becoming the agent of that once mighty yet mushroom establishment. In fact, on all hands, that gentleman's character to the present hour is admitted to be unimpeached. The letter of explanation which Mr. Jaudon has pub lished has had the effect of easing the minds of a great portion of the parties who are holders of the securities of the United States Bank, particularly those whose claims are about 10,0001. or 12,000/. We believe that a meeting took place, even on Sun day, at the instigation of one of the first firms in this City, respecting Mr. Jaudon's affairs, which resulted in providing him the means to meet his engagements on Monday last. Other meetings have repeatedly oc curred with parties who have claims not only upon the United States Bank, but with the United States at large. Mr. Jaudon, having accepted very many of the draft s of the United States Bank per se, and not per procu- ration of, or as agent of that bank, by our commercial law is held personally liable ; but it is not anticipated that the parties who in future must arrange the affairs of that institution would leave him in the lurch. By the official returns of the exports of bullion from the 7th to 13th instant, it appears that the actual ex ports of silver coin amount to 287,700 ounces. For commercial purposes, the Money Market at pre sent is wholly governed by circumstances. Money is plentiful just now for first-rate bills ; but second-rate paper is very difficult to negociate. On the British Stock Market it is not in demand. On the Foreign Market it is worth from .5 a 7 per cent. with parties whosescredit stands well ; but the state of affairs in the United States has not done the dealers in those secu rities much good. TlMES.—Complaints are very common in the city at present that the market for American securities is wholly spoiled, not so much by recent events as by the comments made upon them, and that it is impossible to effect large sales of them upon any terms. This is a state of things which may not exactly suit Mr. Jau den, or the jobbers or dealers in them, or parties who have become holders of them upon speculation or upon borrowed money ; but for the bona fide holders, the capitalists who have placed in them a portion of their spare means, it is the bust that could happen. The American States have been m a d e a b so l u t e l y d run k or mad by 'the:facility with which they could raise money in England during several years past, and have thought no project for " internal improve ment," as they phrase it, too wild and extra vagant for adoption. Under this excitement they have gone on, planning endl ess sc h emes , some of which in the richer states, may yield a profitable return, but with by far the greater part of them such a result is entirely out of the question. They should have waited, as other countries have done, till the increase of population and the increase of wealth had not only furnished a justification for such undertakings, but the 1 means, without looking abroad for that purpose, of carry ing them into effect. On no other principle can sub stantial improvement ever take place in any country. First or last, it is obvious, on the supposition that com mon honesty is to be observed, that the funds must come from the State which makes the improvement, and it need not be pointed out, in a country where money bears a high rate of interest, how much more costly the process must be with borrowed money than with its own. We regret that there should have been any delay in the insertion of Mr. S. Jaudon's letter [which appeared in The Sun of yesterday.] It must be highly gratifying to all persons interested in the affairs of Mr. Biddle's Bank to observe the ex treme sensitiveness on the score of credit which is evinced in this letter. Nothing has been more cur. rently talked of in the City for the last month or six weeks than the fact, which is not denied, that Mr. Jaudon has been compelled by the want of funds or the want of remittances to renew, or to exchange for other paper of the same class, the post notes and bonds of the Bank for which he is agent, called " the United States' Bank," but which, hold , ing a charter only from the separate State of Penn. sylvania, can have no just claim to such a title. Of the various obligations for which such an institution is liable, the more sacred would be in such a case its post-notes and bonds, which only differ from the notes of its ordi nary circulation in not being payable on demand. With respect to Bills of Exchange, which are essentially more of a commercial than of a banking character, the rule as to credit would be, if anything, rather less strict, but it seems that any imputation of a failure or a hesi tation on this point is much more keenly felt. With private individuals the case would be otherwise, and they would not have winced at one charge after quietly sustaining the other. They would have considered that the fact of being able to renew bills of exchange et all was at least some evidence of remaining credit. To deal, howei , er, with the special matter at issue. The fact, as stated in the city on Tuesday afternoon, on authority of such a nature as to obtain for it implicit belief, was, that the agent for the Pennsylvania Bank had raised money at an enormous rate of interest for the purpose of renewing or taking up bills of exchange falling due in this week. After the public announcement of the stoppage of the bank in Philadelphia, the real wonder is that the agent should have been able to accomplish such a transaction as this at all. If a quibble is meant upon the word " renewed," then the bearing of the agent's letter will be fully un derstood, but lie must not expect to mislead the mer chants of this country by any such evasion, or by attempting to persuade them that there is any difference on the score of credit between the renewal of a bill ab solutely, and borrowing money at an exorbitant rate to meet it. But, if not material in that respect, it is of very great consequence to all persons deeply interested in the Philadelphia Bank, that its bills of exchange should not go back under protest, since that might en danger the whole of its funds by the forfeiture of the charter, and hence there are to be found parties in this city who, being already far involved in its affairs, are will ing, at a price, to do that which no strangers would as. sent to, and incur a further risk to secure ultimately a a fair division of the property. There is no occasion, however, to search into private transactions to find means for a sweeping condemna tion of this bank, which has done more mischief both iu Europe and America than ages will serve to set right. For this its open and notorious acts will suffice, ' which have been too often adverted to to need repeti tion, One alone, therefore, shall now b e ment i oned, which is the short career of the Bank under the present charter, which was granted, if we reco ll ect right, in 1835, and the capital was then stated at 35,000,000 dollars, or 7,000,000/. ; yet this bank stopped payment i n 1837 ; renewed ; became a borrower of money all over Europe and America at rates varying from 6 to 24 per cent. ; and has again stopped payment in Phila delphia on the 10th of Octobe r last If people 4re in capable of any impression from facts like these, they must be left to their fate, and c a n rece i ve no ben e fit from any warnings which we can g i ve them. SUN--We perceive by a letter addressed by Mr. Jaudon, to the Editor of the Times, contradicting a state ment previously made in th e Ci ty art i c l e o f th a t j ourna l, that the bills 'drawn upon, and accepted by, the agent of the United States Bank here had not been honoured. Thus our information, exclusively given on Tuesday last, " that the last batch of bills, at 60 days sight, ac -- ' cepted by th e agency, h a d b een paid," is-fully con- I firmed. W e stated on Tuesday that the sums for liquidating those bills were provided, in part, at a ing meet- I of certain cap i ta li sts, h e ld on t h e prev i ous day, in . ! anticipation of remittances coming forward from Ame rica. The statement w e gave on Tuesday we believe to Ibe substantially correct. It was a matter of little sur- prise that our C ontemporary, after having been first in I possession of the letter from Mr. Jaudon, but l which was not permitted to appear, (though copies of it were inserted to-day in the Morning Herald and Morning Chronicle) should have followed up its previous remarks upon this subject, by a statement that great efforts continue to be made by the parties more immediately concerned to prevent any of the bills of exchange drawn upon Mr. Biddle's bank from going back to Philadelphia. As all such bills have been sent, as we stated on Friday last, the dictum of our Contemporary in this respect is not worth further consideration. The market for the American Securities is on the rise. This is the best commentary upon the question hazarded in the quarter to which we have adverted, of a general bankruptcy on the other side of the Atlantic. The East India Produce Markets were flat to-day in consequence of the expressed intention of Government not to indemnify the merchants trading to Canton, for the opium which was delivered up to the Chinese and destroyed. Serious losses will he incurred by this de tL rinination. In West India Produce there has also been a trifling amount of business transacted to-day. The discount in Exchequer Bills has been reduced to Is. only, it being hoped that the interest will be in creased ; India Bonds remain at 3 to 4 dis. ; Consols closed pratty freely at 904 sellers for Account, and at 905 for Money; Bank Stock has declined from 1791 to 1781. Business has been brisk this afternoon in anticipation of the settlement of the Half-monthly Account to-mor row. Spanish after touching 28 left off at 274 ; the Portuguese Five per Cents, at 33i- 1-; and the Three per Cents. at 22k. The advices received this afternoon notice a heavy market for Dutch Stock there—here to day the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have fallen from 521 to 514 ; the Five per Cents, to 98i, and the Belgian Stock to 1001. At Amsterdam there were reports that the Java Bank had been placed in some difficulties, but the rumour was not credited. South American Stocks are heavy, especially Brazil, which fell to 71, in conse quence of the unfavourable state of the finances at Rio Janeiro. The Share Market is still flat, though Great Western Railway have rallied to 13 prem. ; London and Birmingham to 51 prem. ; and Great North of England to 71 dis. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Morning Chronicle.) " There are special seasons of truce," says the Times, " seasons of natural rejoicing, or of charitable co-opera tion, or of neutral hospitality, when even party oppo nents agree, by common consent, to maintain towards the Crown's advisers such a pacific and courteous bearing as may clearly show that, though differing from them on many important points, they are, neverthe less, disposed to give them credit for honesty and directness of purpose. For example, the Queen's Coronation, her Majesty's visit to Guildhall, the Wel lington banquet at Dover, public dinners for charities, and the civic entertainments given by the Chief Magis trate of London, are precisely the sort of occasions we are alluding to. At all such times there is a conventional etiquette, in virtue of which the Minis ters of State are understood to enjoy, not only a prescriptive impunity from expressions of public displeasure, but even in aome degree a right to public defer e n ce — a r i g h t w hi c h , in the case of every Ministry not absolutely condemned to infamy, has al ways been recognised, as well by the general good feel ing of the populace, as by the more select portions of British society." How is it that the Tories have broken this truce, departed from this general understanding, and manifested an utter want of gentlemanly feeling Party feeling has often in this country run high, and Ministers have partaken of city festivities whose measures have been obnoxious in in the extreme to a majority of the Corporation. " I have attended," says a correspondent, whose able communication appears under the head of " Character of the Con servatives," " many Mayoralty dinners in the city, and at times when the Corporation of London has been far more liberal in its politics than at present, and when the Ministry of the day has been pressing a vigorous assault on the liberties of the country. But I have never seen or heard one action or sound which could jar with the feelings on a festive occasion." It is not understood that a gentleman renounces his political opinions, because he does not insult those whom he has invited to partake of his hospitality. The Whigs did not conceive themselves bound to behave with rude ness to Lord Castlereagh or Lord Liverpool, when seated with them at the same social board, because they might detest their measures. It will not surely be contended by the Tories, that all rules of decency and propriety are to be set aside in their favour ; that they are to act on the principle on which the Munster Ana baptists justified all their excesses, that "every thing is permitted to the saints." The Corporation of Lon don were, by the very act of invitation of Minis ters, bound to secure to them respectful treat ment. To invite a man to your table to insult him, is the act of a blackguard, and not of a gentleman. The Torid, might have objected before hand to the invitation ; but, the invitation having been given and accepted, they were bound, on every principle recognised in respectable society, to observe the ordinary rules of courtesy, and to resent any attempt to depart from it. To throw the blame on some thirty or forty individuals is merely to prove that all the others were deficient in the spirit which gentlemen ought to possess. The excuse put forward by the Tory members of the corporation for their conduct is the most severe of all libels on them. But we fear that the Tory members of the corporation cannot even plead that a want of proper spirit is all that can be urged against them. We have heard, for instance—and, from the quarter whence we derive our authority, we are inclined to credit it—that Alderman Farebrother was among the most conspicuous of those who hooted Ministers. No wonder that, encouraged by the example of an Alderman, some of the menials of the Corporation deemed themselves justified by the occasion to lend their throats to swell the chorus. It cannot surely be urged, by way of apology for the worthy Alderman, that at so early an hour his reason had been overpowered by wine. But we l eave th e mem b ers o f t h e C orporat i on to L settle among themselves their respective shares of the disgrace. A Tory and robber were originally synoni mous ;• and if we are to consider the scene at Guildhall as characteristic of Toryism, it has not much risen in the scale of respectability. It will not surely be con tended that the Tories of the City of London are a class apart, and that the Tories elsewhere would disdain to be placed on a level with them. We have received several letters from foreigners present at the festivity, who one and all declare that, in the whole course of their lives, they never witnessed anything so low and dastardly as the behaviour of the Tories on that occasion. (From the Times.) It appears by the Ministerial prints that Mr. Gibson, or as he is now more fitly called, Mr. Jibson, has been ftlasted at Ipswich by the Mayor of the place, and a small number of other persons, whom it would be use less to name, as in all probability, few, if any, of our readers ever beard of them before, and as we take it to be quite certain that none of our readers will desire to make even a nominal acquaintance with men, who could receive with applause a would-be-politician like Mr. Jibson, that has made himself notorious as a public man only by his bad faith, his flippant, frivolous feebleness, and his more than Whig insensibility to shame. We are persuaded, moreover, that no rational and honest politician will care a straw to know what jugglery Mr. Jibson went through for the after-dinner en tertainment of the Mayor of Ipswich, and the rat fanciers which his worship scraped together iTOM the neighbouring fens to make an audience for this political Mr. Gyngell—if to call him sr:, be not an undeserved reflection on the memory t s f that well known public character, who, thou};, like Mr. Jibson, he was an impostor, was undoubtedly a conjuror too, which undoubtedly Mr. Ji4son is not. There can be but one opinion respecting this person's character and conduct among all who have observed his public career, his pirouetting, and his jibbing, from his entrance into the House of Commons, by means of Ipswich, as Mr. Gibson, a Conservative and an Oppositionist, until he was turned out of the House of Commons, by means of Ipswich, as Mr. Jibson, a renegade and -a Ministe rialist ; or from the occurrence of that damning inci dent to him until, his conceit and impudence in no i wise cast down (for he is in face as well as heart a Whig of the first brass), led him to expose himself to, if possible, a still more humiliating fate at Cam bridge. For these reasons we decline entering into any examination of the names of the company of rat fanciers, who, we are told, were thrown into positive extacies by the facetious manner in which Mr. Jibson pooh paohed the Protestant faith, praised education without religion, and demonstrated, like a lawyer, the perfect propriety of appointing Papists, who have perjured themselves, to seats in the Privy Council. If the fenny tribe who figured at the feast really thought there was anything clever in all this, why their brains must be as muddy as their own ditches, and, we are only surprised that Mr. Jibson did not seize so favourable an opportunity of assuring the gobe mouches, whose Master Merryman he was for the night, that few persons had done more for the purification of moralsasaespeciaky at Court —than Lord Melbourne had done by waking the Marquis of Headfort a Lord in Waiting, and presenting Mr. Owen and his beastly book to the Queen, (From the Morning Herald.) The return of Sir John Colborne to England is, at this critical juncture of colonial affairs, to be regarded as a national calamity ; and the return of that distinguished officer may, very soon, be expected. To Sir John Col borne, do we owe the preservation of the Canadas as an integral portion of the British empire. His skill, pru dence, and courage, counteracted the effects of Macken zie's treasons ; and rendered perfectly innocuous, the CEVICNING EDITION. pompous imbecility of Lord Durham. Sir John Colborne is one oft ie few men fitted by nature to govern ; and any administration, but a "liberal" one, would rejoice in the opportunity of profitting by the continued services of such a proficient in the highest arts of peace, as well as of War. The Whigs, however, wanted a place for their east-off colleague, Mr. Poulett Thomson ; and so Sir John Colborne must be virtually recalled, and the Bri tish American colonies, as a consequence, be exposed to danger. Well ! this abominable system of " liberal" misgovernment must come to an end at last ; and we do hope that it may come to an end, before England shall, through the agency of the Whigs, be stripped of her colonial dominions !

GRAND FANCY:BiL, AT GUILDHALL. Last night a grand dress and fancy ball and concert, in aid of the funds for the relief of the distressed Polish refugees, was given with great splendour in the City of London ; the Corporation having granted the Guildhall for the purpose. The Hall was thrown open at eight o'clock, brilliantly illuminated, and onamented with devices and banners ; and before ten there must have been a concourse in the rooms of between 2,000 and 3,000 persons, many of them attired in motley cos tumes, but the great majority wearing the ordinary ball dress prescribed by fashion. There was a truly splen did display of ladies—a perfect galaxy of beauty and loveliness ; and the stream poured along with endle ss variety and vivacity, while the dances and the tr:usic kept the whole company animated and amused.. The entertainment was in the early part of the evening varied by a concert, in which Miss Rainforth, Miss Woodyatf, Miss Steele, and Miss Galbraith took part ; with Broadhurst, Francis Fitzwilliakn, Bradbury, Young, and Turk, and two boys from Westminster, Masters Coward and Stevens. The concert was under the conduct of Mr. Edward Taylor. Nothing could be better than the general arrangements of the ball, which was altogether respectable, orderly, and•unconfused, and was maintained with the utmost spirit and good humour up to two o'clock, when we left the roam with a bril liant and untired assemblage. Lord Dudley Stuart and the Hon. Mrs. Leicester Stanhope were still among the company. We did not see any other persons of I fashionable mark, most of the distinguished Noble Patrons and Patronesses of the cause being at the time out of town ; but we were given to understand that many of them were present by the substantial and beneficial proxy of their gold. The following verses, written to pioniote the charity of the ball, were extensively circulated in the room. They are from the pen of Mrs. Cornwall Baro❑ Wilson : Poland's martyr horocs ask Pity's tear and Mercy's aid; 'Tis the Poet's gentle task To such tribute to persuade ! He who hears the Exile's prayer Warms your hearts with Mercy's glow; He, whose love all nations share, Bids the stream of bounty flow. British Daughters I who ne'er knew Scenes of slaughter or dismay ; Whilst a Father blesses you, Wipe the Orphan's tear away. British Wives! who know no fear, Nor War's sad bereavements dread ; Ye will haste to dry the tear Poland's suffering children shed British Mothers! they appeal Confident in hope to you; Think what your brave sons may feel, And Misery's path with healing strew. Come I ye fair and generous band Dove_ like pity calls you here; Mercy leads you by the hand. To wipe away the exile's tear. SPORTING T ATI ERS.V.LL' S-Til L RSDA.Y.
