LONDON , SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1839. EVENING EDITION. In our City. article of this day will be found some ;illy interesting news from Mexico, to which we iuvite attention. I Lord BROUGHAM presented to the Lords last nizbt a corresponding petition to that which Mr. LEADER I presented last night from two Advocates of Montreal, I an a petition against the Corn-laws. Lord GODERICH ip , sented a petition against the Sale of Beer Act. Lord COLCHESTER, having worked himself up to the 1 fighting pitch, gave notice that he would bring the Istate of the Navy under the consideration of the House on Thurseay next. Canada and the dispatches of the several Governors I caused some conversation. The Duke of WELLING.. 1 TON moved for copies of th e di s p a t e h es o f Si r F. H EAD and Sir 3. CoLsosliE„but added the word " extracts" on Viscount MELBOURNE suggesting that all these dispatches could not be produced. Much regret was expressed i thit the production of Sir F. HEAD'S dispatches was necessary to his vindication. Some further allu s:ons were made to the publication of the Earl of DURHAM'S Report, which seems a very sore sub ject with the _ Peers of both parties. Lord --- - DURHAM defended himself from the imputations of sundry Tory Lords, and Lord MELBOURNE dis t:lxtly. said that it was owing to the Noble Earl having given the copies of the Report to his friends that it got before the public. We apprehend that both parties are too late with this Canada question. Lord DURHAM'S Report will prevent any other legislation for Canada but the most liberal, and the people are more likely to legislate for themselves than to take the law from Tory Lords. In the Commons, a considerable number of petitions were presented in favour of the Corn-laws, and a still greater number against them ; and the latter had much the greater number of signatures. Some petitions also were presented in favour of Church Extension in Scotland, the people being divkded in favour of cheap bread and plenty of churches. Mr. HARVEY'S case was called on out of its turn, and Mr. WYNN moved that a new Writ be issued for Southwark in the room of Mr. HARVEY, who, Mr. WYNN contended, had vacated his seat, agreeably to to the Act of Anne, by accepting an office under the Crown. From the operation of this Act the offices of Secretary to the Treasury and Admiralty, and of all the under Secretaries of State were exempt, because at the time of passing the Act they were not held directly under the Crown, but from the Lord High Treasurer, Lord High Admiral, and the Chief Secretaries of State. Mr. HARVEY defended his having held his seat very ingeniously, by contending principally that the appoint ment was with the Secretary of State, and not with the Crown. The Hon. Member quoted a variety of simi lar offices to the one be held, which had recently been created, and the holders of which had expressly been disqualified from sitting in Parliament, which he con tended would have been the case with his own office had it been intended to disqualify. After concluding his speech Mr. HARVEY left the House. The AT TORNEY-GENERAL followed, and expressed a doubt whether Air. HARVEY was entitled to sit or not. His office was not held directly and immediately from the Crown, and whether Mr. HARVEY could sit or not he roguarded as an undecided point. He moved, there fore, for a Select Committee to inquire into the ap pointment. The motion was supported by Sir R. PEEL, acceded to by Mr. WYNN, and the Committee was ordered to be appointed, but the Members were not nominated at the moment. The Registration of Electors Bill was 'read a second time. Mr. H AwEs move d t h e second reading of his general 1 ), 111 rm. substituting affirmations fur oaths in cases where persons had conscientious scruples. Mr. GOULBURN declared that in a fuller House, and when the Bill in Committee he would give it his most determined opposition. Mr. LAW also oLieeted to it ; Mr. PEN ME and Mr. GIBSON supported it. The Bill was read a second time. The Tories, by their opposition to it, imply thlt they will compel people to violate their consciences, or they will refuse to receive their evidence and deny them justice. Worthy men these Tories ! A Bill to amend the Poor-law for Ireland was read a second time. The LORD Anvoc ItTE moved that the House should g' into a Committee, of the whole House on the Scottish Judges' Salaries. Mr. GILLON moved to put off the C° ol naittoe f:Jr six months, on the ground that the increase ,, of salary was neither called for nor jus t ifi e d. Ar. ',. / .stimE seconded Mr. GILLON'S amendment. W e. 7o with Mr. GILLON and Mr. HU3IE, and con ceive that while the expenditure is 1,428,0001. above the income, and while many of the industrious people— those who created the whole revenue—arc in a state of destitution, it is wrong, it is criminal, to swell the dignity and pomp of the Scottish Judges, by giving them additional money. Reduction, not increase of ex pense, should be the order of the day, and the Legis lature should be as scrupulous in voting away the money of the people as in taking away their li berty or their lives. Mr. GILLON'S amendment Was lost by 56 to 27, and the House went into Committee, in which resolutions were agreed to for allowing the Judges to retire, after fifteen Yelrs' service, on their full salary, and for equalizing l' 4 l augmenting their salaries. After all, law—we will not say justice—is a dear commodity. Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S motion, for leave to hang in a Bill to carry into effect the Fourth , Re port of th e E cc l es i ast i ca l C omm i ss i oners, occa sinned one of those debates which usually occur 1" the Church is before the House, and which 1,7.° all other details are deficient in sense and temper. the Tiers are always on such occasions reproached by mischief party with meaning prodigious we wish they had the courage. When public men are ashamed Of their hypocrisy,and publicly say w hat they pri va t e l y express, a , Yreatreform indeed will be ma d e in the Church : The want of moral courage, or rather of individuality of thought, is as In great in London as in New York, where a merchant, however opulent, dare not use a carriage —because public Opinion is against it. Mr. BLEWITT'S motion for certain returns concern ing the Court of Chancery caused an exposure on the part of Mr. PEMBERTON of the deficiencies of that Court, which is more in arrear now with its business than it was in Lord ELDON'S time. This is one more proof—how proofs multiply on us—of the slovenli ness of our legislation. Lord JOHN RUSSELL professed a. desire to bring in a measure of improvement whenever the Ministers thought they could carry it. What malevolent sprite thus makes vain their good intentions ? way by which this Society can regain the con fidence of the Abolitionists, after the exposure which has taken place, is by taking the manage ment out of the hands into which it has unfortu nately been allowed to fall, and placing it in those of an acting and responsible Committee. The French Journals of Thursday have all been received. An Address from M. THIERS to his constituents of the town of Aix, interesting ru mours from Mexico, and reports of the final set tlement of the Belgian question, impart fresh inte rest and variety :o the leading columns of our Paris Contemporaries. As M. THIERS' Address cannot fail to create a strong sensation even on this side of the water, we will at once submit it, slightly abridged, to the perusal of our readers. The effect which it must produce on the French electoral body will be very great : . " M. THIERS TO HIS CONSTITUENTS. The question concerning the Royal Exchange was postponed, as was Mr. HINDLEY'S for placing on the Journals precedents of evidence having been beard at the Bar against an existing law. On Mr HUME moving for returns relative to the revenues of Canada, and proceeding to comment on the conduct of the late Under Secretary of the Colonies, the House was counted out at half-past eleven. " You have honoured me seven times with your confidence, and elected me Deputy, whatever was my position, Miluister or no Minister, the adversary or partisan of the Governmerdesind whether favoured or attacked by it. Your confidence in me will be con tinued, not, I trust, from personal affection, but from approbation of mypotitical conduct. I am now in opposition, not on account of any solitary question, but against the general tendency of Govern ment abroad and at home. With me I find in opposition some men from whom I differed long —some from whom I have differed but a short time—some from whom I shad probably ever differ, and whom I shall always have to combat. The government of the cider branch of the Bourbons was always suspected, and it never could be hoped that its Monarchs would admit the genuine pa.ticipation of the country in its own affairs, that is, true representative govern ment ; nor could it be hoped that they would preserve a national policy, instead of looking to frieign powers for support against the sentiments of the country. For this reason the elder Bourbons were opposed, and eves the revolution of July, with all its dangers and disadvantages, welcomed. Ater can 1 storms and trials, I still da sire and still demand for my country these same boons, viz., a na tional policy and the truth of representative government. " It is with our Government as with all those which preceded it—it began by being to true to its origin, but soon displayed a tendency to strike into another path. Sprung from an insurree. tion, insurrections were considered by parties as - legitimate modes of making their opinions prevail. It was necessary to resist this, and obviate anarchy. Moreover, the national sentiment of the country exploded. Not contented with ejecting the Bourbons, whom the Great Powers supported, it was eager to sup port the revolutions which menaced these Great Powers at Bologna, at Warsaw, and elsewhere. It was necessary also to resist This. For whatever chance of success there might be in a univers .1 war, it was neither human, not reasonable, nor prudent, nor, above all, was li. berty likely to come of it. My aim was to identify the Government with this feeling only so far as it was possible, to protest for Poland, to fake a guarantee against Austrian domination in Italy, to extend substantial succour to Spain, and decidedly to protect Belgium. " Such had been the system of Government during the first year after 1830. " Had it been persevered in, I would not have re signed; I would have continued Minister in 1836, and would not have refused to be Minister with Marshal Soult in 1837. I should have been mad to have done so. I always thought that there was a point at which a political system should stop. So with that of resistance. When Government was in peril from armed parties, associations of mad youth, organized publicly, and the person of the King outraged, then was the time , of resistance. But when seditious symptoms had disappeared, and when the press itself was tranquil, it was folly to have brought for ward another repressive law, like that of disjunction. This was going too far. At first it was necessary and generous to protect the Car list and the priest party; but this generosity should not have been carried so far as the present Government had carried it, by courting the priesthood, and producing such a scandal as that of Clermont. Napoleon had done wrong in this respect, by surrounding himself with courtiers and priests. But Napoleon was a great man, in the midst of whose glory a weakness or a fault was forgotten. Not so with our inglorious Governinent, where every fault i• a stain." . The address then goes on to deny that the concessions made in Spain, in Italy, and in Belgium, to the absolutist POwers, were at all t i'her commanded byitreeties, or necessary to the preservation of peace., The Liberal or therevolutionary pri nciplewae not a thing t hat could be settled for ever and have done with. It slept, to burst fortis at any mo ment of time, and formed a mass of interests that could not be abandoned, or that, if abandond did not ensure peace for any length of time. M. Thisrs and his friends were as much 'averse to war as any set of men. Every one was afraid of war at present. But the sure way to bring war upon France was for her to appear to fear it more than any one else. " And then, in order to command peace, it was necessary for France not to be isolated. Switzerland, Belgium, France, Spain, England, formed a union whose will no hostile union could resist. France and England fo:med the strength of this union, and the alliance of the two countries formed the most solid foundations of peace. Of this alliance what remains beyond politeness ? France abandoned England on great questions out of complaisance to the absolutist powers; and England in a short time took the opportu. nity of showing France that in the way of alliance with the Eastern powers of Europe, she could much more easily consummate th is than France. " In proof that Government had committed these faults, I would adduce the decisions of the Chamber of Deputies. As proof that rigour bad been carried too far in domestic policy, I would adduce the rejection csf the disjunction law; and as proof, that concession had been carried too far in foreign policy, I would point out the vote of the Chamber refusing to charac terise ministerial policy as representing the country with dignity, or tnaintaining its alliances. For each of these votes a Cham ber of Deputies has been dissolved, one within fifteen months of the other—which recalls the state of things in 1839—not that there was identity in the two epochs, for the royalty of 1829 would un doubtedly yield, and not pass constitutional limits—but the way in which the Governments of 1829 and 1839 commenced was precisely similar. Charles X. wished for a host of things that the country would not permit; he rejected a host of things that the country wanted. He found at last a Ministry that represented his will, and twice he dissolved the Chambers. Then it was that the loyal and enlightened friends of the throne warned it of its madness, and fell offfrum it. What did the Throne do? It struck those friends blindly, as if they had been enemies and traitors. It ended by fall ing into the abyss, from which the present Government well know Mr. HARVEY, last night, withdrew from the House of Commons, in accordance with a proper iule of the House—that Members shall not take part in debates on subjects in which they are personally concerned. What an admirable regulation H ow p roper l y scrupulous is the use of Commons when its character and the character of its Members are con cerned! How powerful was the appeal which the Right Hon. Member for Tamworth made to them in the debate on the Controverted Elections Bill, when he read what would be a proper preamble to Lord MAIION's proposed Bill, arid which as signed as a reason for giving up their juris diction over controverted elections, that neither their honour nor their oaths could be confided in. But if the House of Commons, and particularly the Tory Members of it, the preux chevaliers of the Legislature, are so ex tremely nice and so extremely chary when the subject is a disputed election or a doubtful right to cit in Parliament, how much more nice how infinitely more chary and scrupulous should they be when the question to be discussed directly affects their own pockets and their honesty. The landed gentlemen are boldly accused of robbing the people by the Corn-laws. Will they also have the impudence to sit on Tuesday as judges of this accusation ? If there be one amongst them who has mortgaged his acres, and fears to have the truth exposed—if there be one who has rack-rented his land, because he could make or maintain a law to enable the tenant to recover it in the shape of a tax on the - people=—if there be one who has a direct interest in keeping up the price of grain —with what conscience can he dare to vote on the Corn-laws ? If he does not mistrust his own judgment, the world will most assuredly condemn him. To save the re putation of the House of Commons the landowners as a body must absent themselves on Tuesday. They may go to speak but they ought not to vote. To do so will vitiate whatever conclusion may be come to, and damage irreparably the character of the " noblest assembly of free men in the world." We are glad to learn, by the Sliffidk Chronicle, that Colonel THOMPSON has begun a course of lectures at Bumpy, in the agricultural districts, with a view of enlightening the farmers as to their own interest and'their present degradation. What a calamity for this brave and useful class of citizens to incur the , contempt of society as a body of tax gatherers for the idle landowners. We direct the attention of our readers to a series of resulutions in our advertising columns, passed on Monday lest, at a public meeting of the Leices ter Voluntary Church Society. The Ecclesiastical authorities have been of late carrying it with a high hand at Leicester . , as in other places, and have roused a spirit among the Dissenters and the other friends of religious liberty in that quarter. which we trust will soon become general. It will be seen that the meeting pledged itself to raise the necessary funds and adopt every other measure re quired to oppose and put down the tyrannical en croachments of the Ecclesiastical Power upon their rights as citizens and Christians. A memorial is to be presented to Lord BROUGHAM, requesting hini to ;briug the' cases of the Churchwarden -of Llanon - , and of Mr. THOROGOOD, of Chelmsford, both imprisoned for Church -rates, before the House of Lords. how and when But up to this it follows the same path as The feelings with which Lord BROUGHAM on Thursday evening adverted to the course taken by the Government for the extension of education, will be fully appreciated by all who know (and who de I not ?) the great interest he has taken in this im portant subject. For nearly a quarter of a century he has been, in season and out of season, directing the public attention to the crimes and sufferings of the lower classes produced by ignorance, exposing the sloth of the paid teachers of the poor, and the robberies committed by the Guardians of education charities ; he has introduced three Bills on the subject, and at one time had the full concurrence of the present Government in the great principles of the measure, yet, notwithstanding all these merits, coupled with the discourtesy of not consult ing him on the proposed plan, he is ready and anxious to give even to a hostile Government all the benefit of his experience, and the assistance of his zeal. Perhaps no man in the United Kingdom is so well versed on the subject, and certainly none has such claims to the honour of introducing and carrying through a great measure of this description; but all these he is willing to forego, careles : whom the honour id given, provided the great object of his life is accomplished. The " little plan," however, of Lord JOHN RUSSELL proves the error they have committed in not consulting one so able and so willing to give information and assistance. The very smallness of the measure will only the more embolden their enemies, and cool the ardour of their friends. It is like the East Retford business in the his tory of Parliamentary Reform. This country, said the Duke of WELLINGTON, could not have a little war, and the friends of education say it cannot have a little reform. There are evils of long stand ing and great magnitude which require a general, comprehensive, and thorough change. Nothing but a change of this sort will rouse the people to support it. It should haVe included a proposition for overhauling all those funds left for education purposes—funds, notwithstanding what Lord BROUGHAM has done, still so grossly misapplied, yet large enough to provide the ground-work, agree ably to the intentions of the donors, for establish ing a general system of education for all England. These are the Old Sarums and East Retfords of the system, and against these the first great attack should have been made. In this attack the public would have joined, but this embryo measure they disre gard. The Clergy and the Tories will fight against it on principle, and urge the small benefit it would confer as the strongest reason for resisting the change. Lord BROUGHAM'S words on this point, we fear, are prophetic :- 4 , lle would remind their Lordships of that which those who, like himself, had taken an active interest, and acquired some great experience in Parliamentary proceedings and Legislative changes, well knew, viz., that it was often very injudicious to attempt what was termed ' a little plan,' be cause thereby there was a great danger of disappointing their supporters, and at the same time exciting as much ani mosity as could possibly be created by a plan, which, although more extensive, would be more satisfactory, and therefore would gain more support ; and this consideration he thought should be kept in view by Ministers now." the Government of the Restoration. The liberty which we demand is the liberty taken by the true friends of the Throne—that of warn ing it, of telling it, its wrongs aid its errors. This liberty we cora quered in 1830, at the peril of our heads—the liberty of denouncing the faults of the Government, without being accused of attacking the throne. reasoning, had Holland employed it seven years ago. It is now too late. DUTCH FUNDS.—AnnEkbag, Fsii, 13. Money. BIN. Actual Debt, 2% pet CObt Ditto, ditto 5 per cent.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Buenos Ayres Papers were received late yesterday af to the 7th December, twelve days 'aftr than the last ac count. The Government Journal of the sth December announces the assassination of General Hereeia, Governor of the province of Tuenman and Commander of the iro9ps lately sent against Santa Cruz, by w h ose forces, under General Braun, they were routed with great loss in the province of Salta. The blockade of th e port o f B uenos t with little p ro b a bili ty o f i ts e Government scent-re 7 mere 'yield to th e d eman d s o f the deF t er y tme r en e irne s nighi. n speedilye d continues, than t aos ever am heretofore, r o e t etnodtfoo: The Government have sent to th e H ouse of Represen tatives a project for the emission of 12 millions of dollars in Bank paper in the period of eight months, should the blockade continue thus long ; the emission to Cease, should it be raised. Four millions of the above sum are to be emitted in the month of December, and 1,200,000 ddiars per month afterwards. Means are t o b e prov i ded for the emission, is thought o e t f ig t i h l t e miiliors i i n l e is project ore tisourable than otherwise. spied} i t< a • el st y y r e e a l r c . m p T t_i n e a o b f_ o t by " It is reproached to the Coalition, that the old friends and sup. porters of Government have gone ever to it, and commenced opposi. Lion. The same thing and the same reproach arose in 1829. Then, From the Buenos Ayres papers we hare received news from Chili of the 30th October, and from Peru to the Ist November. A reinforcement of 700 men and 200 horses for the expeditionary army had sailed from Valparaiso on the 9th. General Orb:Toso, vvich two regiments of infan try, 100 a-tillery, and 200 seamen, still remained slnit up io the fortress of Callao, refusing all terms of accommo dation. According to the Peruvian papers, Bo:ivia, was in a most distracted state, and General Santa Cruz, ie private correspondence, which had been intercepted, frankly avowed the straits be was in, in order to procure money to meet the numerous claims upon him. The Tribuno, a Lima journal, publishes a list of the Pcruvi in offices who have been imprisoned, banished, shot, or other wise made away with by General Santa Cruz. It com prises 13 generals, 4 colonels, 76 lieutenards, 68 majors. The Penguin packet arrived last night from Mexico, twenty-six days from the liavannah, with about one hundr, d thousand dollars on merchants' account. The report is here that when the packet left Vera Crux the French Ad miral was firing at a small fort that the Mexicans were repairing, and that our Commodore hove down on them and made them desist ; but how far it is true we cannot say, as they me not very particular in giving news on board the packet. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, V En. 15.—We have had a fiat market throughout the week, with the exception of Slturday and Monday, when the bulk of the purchasing by speculation was made, the Mauritius have been very moderate, in some instances under that of last week, for American, particularly of the c. mmon qualities, to 4 ; from Brazilian -1 to per lb. ; for Egyptian, the sales to-day have been from 2,000 to 2,500 bales. Cape of Good Hope papers received to the 20th Dec, (Fro - m the above Papers.) EMIGRANT FARMERS.--It appears that a considerable number of the emigrant farmers have returned, or are about to return, to the Colony. No further intelligence Las been received frank the main body of these unfortunate people in the Zoola country. The day of emancipation, we find, has been distinguished throughout the Colony, 03 well as at Cape Town, by per fect peace, and a display of the best feeling on the part of the late apprentices. Rio Janeiro Papers received four or five days later, of the 20th December; they do not bring any news of im portance; Exchange, 28,1 291; Stocks, 753- 76. Arrivals this morning, French and Mexican mails, the former brings Continental news of little importance ; by the latter, which sailed from Vera Cruz, 6th January, and from the Havannah 18th Jan., we learn that General Santa Anna was fecoveringfrom his wounds,and repaired to his seat, but his resuming the command again appeared doubtful, owing to the loss of his leg on the 28th December. Her Majesty's ship Pique arrived at Vera Cruz with Mr. Pakenham on board, who immediately opened a corre spondence with the Mexican and French authorities, for a settlement of the affairs. It is stated that the French officers and sailors of the fleet are heartily tired of the business, and a great number of them are afflicted with the ague. The above packet only brings 100,000 dollars. The arrivals from the Cape of Good Hope and Rio Janeiro are unimportant. _ _ We learn with pleasure from our report of the meeting of the Corn-law Delegates, that petitions, numerously signed, continue to pour in from all parts of the town, and more Delegates to arrive. There ought to be no relaxation in the exertions of the friends of the Abolition, for its opponents are active. The poor serfs who till the ground arc so dependent on the landowners and titheowners, that they obey their orders as regiments obey their Colonels. It may be assumed, from th e num b er o f pet i t i ons sent from parishes in favour of the Corn-laws, with out the liability to mistake, that the Clergy gene rally are exerting themselves t o ge t up pet i t i ons i n favour of the Devil's laws. What a sad condition of society is ours, in which those who should be the guides and instructors of the people have a strong pecuniary interest, or suppose they have, in impeding the supply of food, and in leading the people astray. Muftis and Paellas, according to the statement yesterday made by Dr. Bowring con cerning Egypt, are more enlightened and humane than Christian Priests and British Legislators. Messrs. Royer Collard, Pasquier, Hyde de'Neuville, Chateaubriand, went into opposition, and the outcry of defection, of treason, was raised against them. Let people. at this distance of time, look back on their conduct, and judge it. Were they right to warn the Bour bons that they were running to destruction ? Were they or Prince Polignac the true friends of royalty ? The present Government has united against it M. Barrot, M. Thiers, M. Guizot, M. de Broglie, Marshal Soult, and the very brothers of Casimir Perier. And it is because Government has committed such a series of faults as to unite all those men against it—this is to be the reason that Govern ment is right, and all these eminent men wrong. Why, this is the acme of absurdity in argument•" M. Thiers then reverts to his personal feelings, and position, and ends by declaring "that however attached to the Government, he had rather displease it than betray it by complaisance." The implied contrast in one passage of the above between Louis PHILIPPE'S Government and that of NAPOLEON, so manifestly to the advantage of the latter, will give mortal offence at the Tuileries. Still the Address is more moderate in its tone, and more within the strict compass. of constitutional forms than we were prepared to expect from a man of M. THIERS' temperament, at the head of a coa lition of French Deputies. M. MARTIN DU NORD, French Minister of Public Works has addressed the following official letter to the several Chambers of Commerce Paris, Feb. 11. We have this morning received a Dutch paper of the 14th, by an extra boat. The above paper brings the in telligence that the Dutch Government has given orders for two brigs, and three large vends, to proceed from Helvoet Sluys immediately to the Scheldt; also orders have been given to the Commander of the Scheldt, to get ready a number of gun-boats, to keep open the communica tion between the Dutch forts along the Scheldt; after a Council was held at the Hague, the Prince of Orange immediately returned to the army. Dutch Funds come lower ; Two-and-a-Half per Cents. l 41i; Five per Cents. 100.1. We publish in another column a letter from a late member of the Church-rate Abolition Society, which, corning from one who has been behind the curtain, is entitled to the consideration of all who feel an interest in the proceedings of the Society. We shall only remark, that we entirely concur with Mr. BESLEY in thinking that the only possible " Gentlemen,—l have to inform you that it appears, from a dispatch of Admiral Baudin, which has been forwarded to me to day, that the Mexican Government is fitting privateers against our commerce. It is of importance for French merchants to be ap prised of this fact, in order that they guard against its consequences. "The Minis ~er of M r ne informs me that Le is a loptinglm:asures to protect as effl caciously as possible, French vessels from the attack of Mexican privateers, and to capture or destroy the latter where ever they are to be met. " Convoys will, if necessary, be organised to protect the trade between France and America, but for that purpose it will be indis pensible that the:department of the - Navy be acquainted with the projected expeditions, and on that account I invite you to devise means to supply me regularly with the necessary indications. " MARTIN DU NORD." The Commerce states that whole parcels of letters of marque, printed in Mexico, and ordered by the Mexican 'Government, have been sent to England and the United States. They require only to be addressed, and for this purpose the Mexican Consuls have all received the necessary powers. It is even added, that some of them have been already sold in Liverpool, by the Mexican Consul there, to the highest bidder. The necessary number of Mexican subjects, which each privateer must have onboard to escape a charge of piracy, mav, taken on board at certain indicated stations in the United States, where depots of Mexican adventurers will be formed. The Commerce recommends, in the event of these letters being used, that the laws against piracy shall be strictly executed in the case of every privateer captured without the strict letter of that article in the law of nations, which entitles privateers to the courtesies of an open enemy. As regards Belgium, the French Papers state, on the authority of letters from Brussels, that LEoPoLD will have actually accepted the Ultimatum of the London Conference on his own responsibility before the meeting of the Chambers convoked for Tuesday next. This is confirmed by a statement in the Belgian papers received to-day, that the KING has sent orders to M. VAN DE WEYER, his Minister in London, to sign the treaty forth with, in order that it might arrive in time to be communicated to the Chambers at their first meeting. There is no domestic news of any interest in the French journals. The Debals has an article preaching moderation to all parties. This is equally rich and amusing. - Dutch and Brussels papers have been received this morning, but the subject of which they prin cipally treat—the final settlement of the Belgian question—will be found discussed M a paragraph of our French leader. A note addressed by the London Conference to Holland and Belgium, di recting a retrogade movement of their respective troops on the frontier, appears to have wounded the pride of H o ll an d, b y t h e au thoritative tone in which it was conceived. That Power having anticipated the wish of the Conference, Claims the distinction of being addressed in language more courteous than a Government but for whose obsti nacy the whole question might be at any moment settled.

LEGISI.ATIVE COUNCIL AT THE CA PR OF GOOD HOPE. 6 —An Address was returned by his Excellency to the Legislative Council. He states that in meeting the Council for the first time in many months, being absent from the scat of Government, he deemed it his duty to address them upon various matters of public importance. He had i nterv i ews w i t h severa l o f the Chiefs, who were parties to the Treaties existing between her Majesty and the Caffre tribes. He explained to them that he had been appointed by his Sovereign, the Queen of England, to govern th e C olony, an d t h at h e wou ld maintain those treaties in v i o l ate.

MANCHESTER CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. Mr. G. WOOD; it is probable that a feet of the Tory adherents of the Hon. 1‘.1.1'., for Kendal, will secede from this body 4 in consequence of the (in direct) slur cast on Mr. Wood, as they say, in withhOldidg his name from the amended list of Ditectors, on Monday last, notwithstandihg such list, was carried by a majority amounting nearly to perfect un animity. The number thus acting will be by no means numerous ; but were they more so than they are, the addition of new numbers, will, no doubt, fill up the void three times over ; to say nothing of the first life that will be introduced into the Executive. There will also be the satisfaction of knowing, that in future none of Lord Brougham's Glasgow drugs, to retard vigor ous operations, whenever great vigour should be dcemed as essentials in the exercise of their functions. The sentiments of a large majority of the mercantile classes in this town, will thus be fairly and honestly represented. Never was there mere general satisfaction shown, than when it was known on Mottday that Mr. Wood was left out of the direction. Never was there less pity shown to a public man, than has been shown towards Mr. Wood. Small indeed, will be the number to regret his political suicide; for his public course has for many years been most sinuous, impenetrable, and incomprehensible; resolvable, however, by ninety-nine in every 100, that office was the goal to wards which he was pressing, but, alas! no office now. Some three or four weeks since, it was announced that Mess's. N'ewall and Sons, of Dewsbury, had agreed with the Manchester, Birs mingham, and London Railway Company to complete a viaduct aeres, the River Dane and Valley at Congletun for 110,0001. Messrs. N. however, having neglected, or refused to sign legal docdmetits fur the due performance of the contract, the j,;13 was re.let on Thursday last, to Messrs. Bleakley, stone-masons, Manchester, for 112,9111/. Thus will the Company will suffer a loss of three thousand pounds by the defalcation of the first contractors. The Town Council of Chester has consented to the widening of the racecourse and the erection of a second stand. FRIGHTFUL DEATH ♦ND MAIMING BY MACIIINES.—A few days since, a lad in the employ of Mr. A. Howard, of Stockport, came by a most lamentable death. The lad's apron is supposed to have been caught by an upright shaft running at a great velocity, and only se. ven inches (corn the wall. All his clothes were stripped off him, save his shirt and stockings, his head scalped, lower jaw broken. tongue lacerated, both arms near the shoulders received a compound fiacture, the same of both thighs in the middle : his right arm in the middle received a simple fracture, and his left leg the same—his death was instantaneous. MANCHESTER, FRIDAY EVENING.—TH It COTTON TRADE.—The e has been many inquiries after goods, with more disposition to buy this week than during the last, especially since Tuesday, though the prices for power loom cloth may be noted as the turn lower. Hand. loom production (Calicoes) ar by no means plentiful; and prices are steady. Twist for export continues dull inch. ed, but Warps and Weft Ix home use are in good demand, and go off' at full prices. BRADFORD WOOLLEN MARKET, THURSDAY.—There ha 8 been more inquiries for goods to.day, and, perha: , s, en the whole, a shade more done ; but the prices obtained are below the cost of produc. tion. We hear of many power loom manufacturers having only a part of their looms employed, preferring that to the making of goode under the present unfavourable circumstances. Yarns—There is no alteration in this article as compared with the sales for many weeks past. Wools—The demand for wool is not good ; and, as the sup ply exceeds the demand, striplers are now submitting to a cunsidera. ble reduction. VICE-CHANCERY-(THIS DAY.) COLBORNE V. MARRTAT.---" THE PHANTOM SHIP." Mr. SHARPE this morning moved on behalf of Mr. Colburn, thi publi,her, for an cz parte injunction against Captain Maryat, under the following circumstances. The affidavit in support of the mo tion, stated that Mr. Colburn was the publisher and proprietor of the " New Monthly Magazine," that between the month of March, 1837, and February, 1838, Captain Marryat wrote for that work a series of articles, which were the commencement of a tale called " The Phantom Ship." Those articles appeared in ten Numbers, and the agreement between Mr. Colburn and Captain Marryat was that those articles should appear in the Magazines, but that the copyright subject to the publication should remain in Captain Marryatt. The last of those articles appeared on the Ist of February, 1638, about one-half of the tale being then -only completed. There was nothing further published until the 18th January, 1839, when Mr. ,Colburn agreed to purchase of Captain Marryat • the exclusive copywright not only of the articles that hag, been published, but of all those that were' about to be publisher. The work to consist of three volumes post Eivo., of at least 300 pages each volutne, and 22 lines to each page. Mr. Colburn also agreed to pay Captain Mar ryat by bills at nine, twelve, and fifteen months, from the date of the agreement, the sum of 7501, and was to be at liberty to print and sell for his (Colburn's) sole use and benefit, 1,750 copies, free of any further charge to him, and after the 1750 should have been sold, he was to be at liberty to print as many more copies as he pleased during the remainder of the term of three years, on payment of the further sum of 2501. The work watt to be published at' the time Mr. Colburn might think most advantageous, but the period was not to be protracted beyond the first of October next. Notwithstanding this agreement, yesterday morning Captain Marryat sent a Mr. Howard to Mt. Colburn intimating that unless he would con sent to some further terms for the benefit of Captain Marryat, it was the intention of the Captain to send the manuscript etrdies of the remaining unp t iblislihd pars of the work to France and the United States, and to sell and dispose of the came, so that the whole work might be published in those countries before the completion of the story could be published in this country by Mr. Colburn. Mr. Colburn remon started, but was told that Captain Marryat had been advised. by his solicitor that he was at full liberty to sell the work either to a Parisian or an American publisher. Mr. Colburn, by his affidavit, swore that he believed Capt. Marryat was about to send copies of his work to America and France, and the bill therefore prayed that the defendant might be ordered to perform the agreement, and restrained from selling, or disposing of, or part • ing with, to any other person than the plaintiff; copies of the work. The VICE-CHANCELLOR, after reading the agreement, ordered the injunction, and observed :—" It appears to me to be a most dis honest act. There may Le something more in the case than lat present am aware of, but as it is presented to me, it appears to me to be an extremely proper case for an injunction." Mr. SHARPE assured his Honour that he had stated the whole of the case. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (TEAS DAY.) Lord ABINGER sat at Guildhall, this morning, with a Common Jury His Lordship had a list of thirteen causes in the Paper, all of which were disposed of, and t h a Court up shortly after two o'clock. Many of the causes were withdrawn, and those tried possessed no point of public interest. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) LAMBURN V. CRUDEN. This was an action to recover a quarter's salary, 29/., brought by the plaintiff who was lately superintendent of the Gravesend Star Steam Packet Company, against the defendant as Chairman of the Directors of that Company. _ . Mr. Sergeant ATCUERLY and Mr. PAUL' were for the petitioner, Mr. Sergeant WILDE and Mr. SHEA for the defendant. The plaintiff's case was that he had been engaged at a yearly sa. lary, which he had received up to Michaelmas, 1837. In November he sent in his resignation to the Company, which was not, however, accepted till near the end of December, for that period he claimed a quarter's salary. Evidence of the contract, &c., having been adduced, Mr. Sergeant WILDL, for the defence, submitted that the letter of resignation (which was put in) must be considered as a voluntary termination of the agreement. • It was eventually agreed that a nonsuit should be entered, on condition that the plaintiff should be at liberty to move to have the verdict entered for such sum as the Jury thought a sufficient compensation. The JURY thought 291. was due. IRELAND. (PROM OUR. OWN CORRESPONDENT.) DUPLIN, TIiptSDAY. GREAT MEETING.-LORD NORMANBY, This day a respectable and numerous meeting of the citizens of Dublin, was held at the Arena, Lo*er Abbey street, to adopt an address to his Excellency Lord Normanby, pursuant to the resolu tions of the preparatory meeting, mentioned in my letter of "ester. day. Sir Thomas Esmonde, Sir Thomas Finlay, Sir David Roche, M.P., O'Gorman Mahon, Carew O'Dwyer, Colonel Morris, Thomas Dickson, Q.C., John Power, D.L., Henry Grattan Curran, Major Soutliwell, John Smith, Lawrence Finn, J. J. Murphy, Peter Purcell, Sharmpn Crawford, and others were on the platform around the Chair, which, at half-past two o'clock, was taken by the Right Hon. the Earl of Charlemont. His LORDSHIP said it was only two hours before he had heard 01 the intended meeting. Many present were aware he had lately suf fered a severe loss, and his heart was not less in mourning than his person ; but he could not refrain, even under these circumstances, from attending upon such an occasion as the present.—(Cheers.) Lord Normanby had, during his stay in Ireland, done incalculable good, and he left it with the warm blessings of the people. Before he came among us he had earned a high character, and he had here raised it stjll higher.—(Cheers.) He would not intrude further on the time of the meeting, but permit the business to proceed at once. Mr. French was appointed Secretary. Sir THOMAS ESMONDE proposed the fire resolution, to the effbct that the citizens of Dublin, in profound grief, seized the few minutes left to them to express their feelings towards his Excellency. The Hon. Baronet observed that the only consolation the people of Ire land had was, that he was removed to a sphere of greater usefulness, where he would still be their friend. . - Mr. L. CROSTH WAITE seaconded the resolution, which Ives passed unanimously. ➢lr. POWER moved the next resolution, to the effect that Lord Normanby had not only been productive of good to Ireland, but to the en►ire Empire. Sir T. FINLAY briefly seconded the resolution, which was and carried amidst loud and continued cheering. Major SotrrowELL proposed the next resolution, which declared that by the greatest urbanity, in public and private, and by the exercise of perfect impartiality, his Excellency had tamed the deepest respect and gratitude of the Irish people. He Could add nothing to this resolution, which embodied tally the Sentinietits of the nation, and of himself, as a unit of the multitude. Mr. FITZSIMON, in seconding the resolution, said the meeting deserved no thanks for assembling there, for all they could do would but feebly embody the gratitude of the nation. He had taken the deepest interest in the welfare of Ireland, and was determined to work out her prosperity. None who had met him in private, but had been captivated by the urbanity of the gentleman, the accomplishments of the scholar, and the elegance of the man of the world. But in public life, which was of so much more Import_ ance, the dischargeof his duty was above cavil, and beyond praiser He had been abused for using his prerogative of mercy, but it was doubtless the sweetest consolation of his life, as it was the pride of his many friends that he had tempered justice with that Godlike quality. Everything that could be done to check bad laws and make us forget the atsence of good ones was done by him. As he could not wipe the evil off the statute book he rendered the noxious enactments futile.—(Cheers.) For these things he earned the love of the people, and would ever retain it.—(Cheers.) Mr. BERWICK seconded the resolution. They had met to do jus tice to the Viceroy, who for four years had done justice to them. The moral of their manifestation was, that with the same strength of feeling with which they expressed their gratitude to Lord Normanby, they would display their enmity towards any of his suc cessors who would fail to pursue the same course of equal and im_ partial justice.—(Cheers.) When the Coercion Bill was brough forward, Lord Mulgr ave was the solitary opponent it met w i th i n th e House of Lords, a n d it was equally true that it was h e w h o fi rst carried the Emancipation Bill into effect, by acting in the spirit o it, while it s f ramers would willingly tear it from the Statute Book' —(Cheers.) O'GORMAN MA/lON having moved a vote .of thanks to the Marchioness of Normanby, which was passed by acclamation, the Address was read and adopted, and to.mon ow fixed for presenting it to His Excellency. Some other gentlemen addressed the meeting, which shortly after broke up.

DURING THE WEEK The Salamander got away on Tuesday, the 12th, for Plymouth and the North Coast of Spain. From the foregoing it will be seen that we have had another blank week at this port—no ships commissioned—no arrivals—in short, not anything doing, except hearing in every quarter complaints of the dulness cf the place. The Britannia, it is now said, will not be paid off until the 30th April, when Admiral Fleming will succeed to the command at this port. The Clio and Orestes are to be brought forward for commission forthwith. The Waterwitch, 10, will be commissioned in a few days for the North American station. The Etna is being got ready with all possible dispatch, a working party having been lent from the Britannia to hasten her equipment. Her destination is said to be the coast of Scotland. Orders have been received during the week to discontinue the entry of ordinary seamen, landmen, and boys; able seamen and artificers of any trade are still to be received. PRICE OF SUGAR. EFFECT OF MONOP'MY. Table showing the ex-duty price of West India-Sugar in Mine. ing. lane, and comparing the same against foreign sugars : London, Feb. 15, 1839. The Gazette of this day quotes the average price of British Per cwt. Plantation Muscovado Sugar, exclusive of duty, at... 365. 5d There has been mete demand for Foreign Sugars of all kinds this week; some refiners in London, who contemplate working Foreign Su gar for exportation have paid from is. to Is. 6d. per cwt. in advance of last week's prices; it is rumoured that a considerable purchase of French Colonial Sugar at 235. per cwt. has been made by an English refiner. The effect of these operOons is, that free labour Sugar from the Manilla may be quoted from to 255. per cwt., being yet about 12s. per cwt. less than the average price of West India Sugar. British Treacle is worth Bs. 6d. per cwt. in the foreign Ilia.,; (8 ". The same has keen sold, duty free, this week in London at 325. per cwt., being an execs of price paid by the nation of 235. 6d. per cwt., in other words, 235. 6d. per cwt on Treacle contributed by the poor man towards West India Bounty, and not, as it is erroneously sup posed, towards revenue. In fact, the poor man might purchase in the London Docks double refined Sugar, duty free, for the same amount of money which he pays out of them for his duty free Treacle. COFFEE—The Coffee Market remains much as before, and the remarks we made last week still apply to it. We have already shown that the protective laws on West India produce cost the nation 4,210,0001. per annum, over and above the amount of duty on, and the prime cost of, the different articles supplied. BOURSE—PARIS, THURSDAY, FEB 14. The Five per Cents., as well as the Three per Cents. for cash, opened at a slight augmentation of yesterday's quotation, on account of the favourable turn taking in the Belgian question, which also produced a slight improvement in the Bank shares; they were much looked after at 560, but subsequently declined to 555.

The Minotaur, 74, is now fitting at Sheer ness to take the corps on board. The Queen's Bays have been or. dered by the Commander-in Chief to replace the 15th Hussars at Glasgow. It is 25 years since the Bays were quartered in that city. LIBEL.—The case of ‘, Wiltnett v. Harmer and Bell," tried in the Queen's Bench on Thursday, was certainly one of the boldest experiments we ever recollect, or, indeed, have read of, to turn a man's own infamy to profitable account by endeavour ingto induce a jury to give damages against a newspaper for throw ing some light upon practices of so deep a dye of moral depravity as makes the conduct of the highwayman appear manly and chivalrous in compari s on. Of all the crimes that most disgrace the character of man in a state of civilized society, that is the meanest, the basest, the most heartless and cruel, which consists in entrapping an intro. cent, unsuspecting female to become the Wife, as she is led to believe, of a wretch already married, who not only daringly violates the law of man to get the unhappy victim into his toils, but makes an audacious mockery of the holy rites of religion, and coolly utters the foulest of preme dit a ted perjury at the altar of God.—Mornin g Hera ld.

HERALD.—Money for commercial purposes kas been rather easier within the past day or two ; and though it has not been scare', yet in some instances it has been more in demand upon the Stock Exchange to-day, which has had the effect of bringing some m oney stock up al the market, else we might have seen Consols highertban our quotations will exhibit.
