That was to be expected, for honest men could not sit still under the imputation of approv ing of his conduct. 'Our account of the meeting will be read with satisfaction. Honour to the men of Canterbury. They told the Cathedral Clergy no inconsiderable quantity of truth, by which those gentlemen, who are wrapt up in the self-conceit of their order, will be sure not to profit. Mr. BRENT confirmed the statement that Mr. BRADSHAW'S printed speech was not exactly like Mr. BRAD "JAW'S spoken speech, so that this gentleman is doubly convicted, of libelling her MAJESTY and deceiving his friends. We do not advocate recurring to past usages and Actin g on sentiments that are no longer warranted by external circumstances. We leave that to the Tories. At present wrong of every kind is to be ~redressed by appeals to the Courts, or to the Press, and not by the strong hand. But if the Tories Were in office, and any Whig were to have libelled her MAJESTY like Mr. BRADSHAW, we have to doubt that it would be regarded as a personal insult, and some valiant member of her MA JESTY'S Household—some Lord LONDONDERRY, for example—would have challenged Mr. BRAD SHAW, or horsewhipped him, or have had him thrown into a scavenger's cart. The days of chivalry, how ever, and of committing such outrages, arc past; and trusting to this, knowing that the good feelings and toderation of their opponents will allow them to sleep in a whole skin, the Tories most valorously talk against her MAJESTY and her Court over their Cups. The nreux chevaliers of Toryism prove by their conduct that the days of chivalry are gone, and that they know it. The exhibition at the Common Council on Tuesday was melancholy indeed, and but for the redeeming speeches of three or four of the Mem bers, we would call it disgraceful to the City of London. The Church of England, probably the richest in the world, has a revenue of 6,000,0001. a-year. Independent of that, large sums are le vied from Dissenters in the shape of Church-rates, and grants of Parliament for building new Churches, making altogether an annual outlay of seven millions sterling annually provided by the State for the religion of only a portion of the people. For national edu cation the whole amount granted by Parliament is 30 ,000/., yet at the meeting in question 1,0001. Was voted by the City of London for the support of the enormously wealthy establishment, the State religion, and half that sum was refused for the sup port of schools in the poverty-stricken and igno rance-stricken district of Bethnal-green. It was not denied that one of the Churches was so large that it never was full, nor that several places of worship Were shut up, nor that one of them was actually occupied as a depot for TRUMAN, HANBURY and BUXTON'S porter ; yet 1,000/. of the City funds, raised partly from Dissenters, and from duties on the poor man's coals, was voted, under the pre tence, as Mr. STEVENS sarcastically remarked, " of being a boon to the poor, while it was actually in tended to afford support to ten clergymen ;" and he might have also said, to add the patronage of ten additional livings to the already enormous patro nage of the pious and disinterested Bishop of LONDON. What absurdity in Mr. F. BUXTON and.the Corporation of London to erect churches befor e they have erected schools ! If the poor peo ple of Bethnal-green had these ten churches, and t en 'more, what advantage would they derive from t he pulpit or the Prayer-book, if they could not read ? These ten clergymen to be appointed at th e w birn, or for the interest, of the Bishop of LON br---fresh, too, from Oxford or Cambridge—places i-- e brated for moral and relicrious improvement, m ight preach and read prayers every Sunday and 110Iid ah but would they by such means remove ignorance, or in any one respect improve the moral Condition of the people ? The whole scheme al)» pears to, us preposterous, except in so far as it will benefit a few individuals. It will not in any way improve the condition of the poorer classes, and we cordially agree with Mr. STACEY in thinking that School houses ought to precede churches, and that it would be more wise to give 1,000/. to wards the education of the poor than 1001. to welds the building of churches. The news from Canton, though not of a later date than the accounts received by the last overland _mail fro m I n di a , i s hi g hly i m p ortan t. . Superinten dent ELLIOT, without pledging his Government to a nY specific line of conduct, is evidently preparing Or a state of things far from pacific. It would ap pear, moreover, that he is well supported by the Amer:can and Dutch merchants, while the Celestial G overnment, on its part, manifests a firmness in abi ding by its first Proclamations for the regulation °f trade, and the exclusion of opium, which must be attributed either to its contempt for the power of E urope, . or i ts re li ance upon the security which it h opes to derive from its remoteness. Our Corres -13%-ident from Canton, whose letter will be found in a nother part of The Sun, re-suggests a plan for P e ntanently establishing ourselves at the mouth of the Canton River, to which, on a former occasion, 'we , directed the attention of our readers, and upon 'ich we may soon again consider it our duty to dwell a tilore length than we have yet done. Our Go tirnment,• we feel assured, will not allow this op 13(1rtunitv for placing the trade with China on a new a n d - resp ec t a ble footing to pass away without useful and permanent results. We have some old scores t ° settl e with the subjects of his CELESTIAL MA jRsTY. the 4 , August Brother of the Sun and ' ° ° 11 ;" and never was there abetter time for bring ing them to a final issue. Th e whole of the Paris papers of Tuesday have been received, with Madrid Journals of the 29th nit., and letters from Constantinople of the 17th, and Athens of the 19th ult. The news they bring may be summed up in a few words. Admiral Ro t r ssiN had taken his departure from Constanti hople ; the Egyptian army had not advanced upon Caesarea, as previously reported ; the Pacha of Gypr was recovered from his recent indisposition ; kin g OTHo was misgoverning Greec e as usua l ; and nothing had been done in the way of definitely kijusting the Oriental question. So much for the East. The little intelligence received from Spain i ° quoted below, but as the source whence it comes reliance ought to be pl ace d Very quest i ona ble, no re it. prince GEORGE of Cambridge has arrived at Frankfort on his return from his tour. There i s no domestic news of any interest in the Fr ench journals. We are sorry to announce that General B ERN ARD, late Minister of War, is on e Point of death. M. HAGERMAN, the eminent Faris banker, died on Monday last. dat We have received letters from the frontiers of Spain wi t i;" the, 31st of October, which i nf o rm us that not • the the apparent tranquillity of Navarre and t o b e Biseayan provinces, new Guerillas are beginning eganil,l a t rI b e for med there, and that the Christina commanders fest uneasiness on that account.

The object of these measures is to prevent any communication respecting what passes elsewhere, and particularly everything that relates to shat has taken place in the North of the kingdom, and what is preparing in Lower Arragon, and in the king dom of Valencia.

CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 16.—The fleets collected off the Dardanelles have already suffered by the bad weather, and have therefore resolved to seek other stations for the present. The French fleet has chosen that of Mytelene. '1 he fleet will, however, in no ease withdraw to any great distance from the Dardanelles during the winter ; nay, they expect considerable rein forcements, and seem resolved not to quit the Archi pelago.

(From the Malta Harlequin of the 19th ult.) BESHIE A BAY.—There is a rumour amongst the fleet that a portion of it, with the flag-ship, will return to Malta very soon, and the rest will remain in some secure retreat under the command of Commodore Parker. It is said, also, lAdmiral Lalande is to be recalled. The combined fleets now consist of twenty sail of the line, eleven English, nine French, besides smaller vessels. ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT, SEPT. 26.—The health of the Pasha is entirely re-established. Before the departure of Commander Stopford, of the Zebra, in an audience which he had of the Podia, the latter addressed to him the following words :—" Tell your father (Admiral Stopford) that I will not give up the Turkish fleet— that in the long course of my life I was never guilty of cowardice, a gross act of which would be if I were to submit to the absolute will of the great Powers." _ _ This day the indefatigable Mr. Waghorn arrived from Alexandria in the Egyptian steam-vessel Generoso, granted, we understand, to Mr. Waghorn as a favour by the Pacha, to convey' l the Indian mail of about 35,000 letters to England.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS Cl7 --T T - 'I 7 WVE 0' CLUCK. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, WEDNESDAY.—PV C have had but a moderate demand for Cotton to-day, at steady prices ; sales, 3,000 bags. OUTWARD PASSAGE OF THE LIVERPOOL.—SaiIed hence on the 21st September, at 10 A.M. ; arrived at New York, 10th Oct., 18 days and 20 hours, 14 of which she met with a succession of westerly gales. HOMEWARD PASSAGE.—SaiIed on the 19th Oct., at 3 P.m., arrived on the Gth Nov., at 8 A.m., 17 days and 17 hours, during which she had thirteen days strong easterly winds. The Liverpool steamer has brought in specie 400,000 dollars, chiefly in sovereigns. The great anxiety which has prevailed for these few days past for the arrival of the Liverpool steamer from New York has been relieved this morning, which, we are sorry to state, brings very unfavourable intelligence respecting commercial affairs in the United States ; not only has the United States Bank stopped specie pay ments, but those South have followed the sam. e example. We will not trouble our readers with a detailed ac count of this disastrous event, as it will be inserted in another part of The Sun, but confine ourselves to giving the following from an American paper received this morning : " The explosion on this side of the water in banking affairs, simultaneous with the disastrous news which has reached us from England by the Liverpool, have effectually checked all operations of trade. The state of affairs is such at present as leads us to look forward to a great and radical change in prices, trade, and the manner of doing business. The old channels of trade, formed by that credit system which has now exploded, will be broken up, and new associations formed before any regular trade can be done. Every branch of busi ness is therefore dull, and the merchants are waiting the progress of events. The cotton holders have 'shown some disposition to give way since the arrival of the Liverpool. and purchases have been made to a fair ex tent, chiefly on manufacturers' account, at fidling prices. At the south the new crop is in a state of forwardness ; and the prices are well sustained at Mobile—Exchange on London 8A- 9. United States Bank Shares have fallen, from the last arrival from New York, about 80 per cent," The disastrous information from the United States will prove of great injury to our manuficturing dis tricts, as well as to the merchants in London, for some time to come, and, on the contrary, will be of great assistance to the Bank of England. Owing to the nume rous fires which have occurred in various parts, which have consumed large quantities of merchandise to a large amount, as well as Colonial articles of all descriptions ; fresh orders will be received for various descriptions of goods, which must be paid for in hard cash, which will find its wsy into the coffers of the Bank of England. We have received a Price Current from Rio Janeiro to the 18th August ; Exchange on London 32-i Stocks 72 nominal. THE FUNDS.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to-day in this Lase, which came before the Court upon appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor refusing to grant a settlement to Lady Champneys. It will be re collected that Lady Champneys, under her father's will, inherited, some years ago, a property of 10,0001. a-year, that property, however, through the improvidence of Sir Thomas Champneys, who had twice passed through the Insolvent Debtors' Court, had been squandered away. Sometime since, in consequence of the death of certain members of her:family, Lady Champneys became entitled to another 10,000/. a-year, and immediately on its being known to the assignees of Sir Thomas under the first insolvency, that such was the fact, they laid claim to the whole for the benefit of Sir Thomas's credi tors. Lady Champneys claimed the right of having a settlement made upon her out of the property, and filed her bill for that purpose. Upon the case coming on be fore the Vice-Chancellor, his Honour decided that the assignees were entitled to the whole property, that Lady Champneys had no right to any settlement, and on that ground he dismissed the bill against her with costs. From that decision the present appeal was brought. His Lordship after going at some length into the case and the authorities on the subject, stated his clear opinion to be, that the judgment of the Court below was incorrect, and that it must therefore be reversed. Lordship then directed a reference to the Muster, to approve of a provision for Lady Champneys ; and the as signees of Sir Thomas Champneys, consenting, 1,0001. was directedneeessietitsonbnet of the paidtofLund in c Lady Cliam on p r n t. eys, for her pre sent QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) SLYFIELD V. REVOLTA. Sir F. POLLOCK moved in this case for a rule to show cause why the verdict for the plaintiff should not be set aside, and a new trial had, or why the verdict should not be reduced in amount, It was an action on a promissory note made by the defendant to William Slyfield, so far back as Nov. 1822. It appeared that Revolta had been a bankrupt, and the dividend was a very respectable one, the defendant being anxious to pay all his creditors as far as he could. A witness, named James, proved that he had applied to Slyfield to sign the defendant's certificate, but Slyfield insisted on having a note for the amount of his debt. Revolta said he was ready to give a note, but not to pay interest, and it was expressly stipulated when the note was made that no interest should be paid. The note was for 1861. 4s. 6d., and there was a set off allowed of 63/. 13s. 6d. ; and it was also admitted that a sum of 83/. 14s. had been paid, besides the 63/., at various times. There was nothing to contradict the testimony of James, and notwithstanding that the Jury gave a verdict for 122/. 11s., which was clearly incon sistent with the evidence at the trial. If no interest was to have been paid on the note, the plaintiff could not recover at all ; and if the Jury disbelieved the evidence, and thought the plaintiff entitled to interest, the ver dict should have been for a larger sum. Under these circumstances he contended that he was entitled to a rule to set aside the verdict, or reduce its amount. Although he might perhaps be authorized in applying to enter a nonsuit, on the ground that the note was one upon which the plaintiff was not entitled to reco ver, yet he would be satisfied with a rule to reduce the verdict to the sum of 38/. 7s. ; that was giving credit for the two sums of 63/. and 83/. paid, and he thought that would probably meet the views of the other side.

Mr. ALEXANDER moved fora rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, directed to the Mayor, Aldermen, and Common Council of Derby, calling upon them to execute a bond under the follow ing circumstances :—The name of the person on whose behalf he applied, was Newton, who "fig appointed a constable of Derby, in the year 1812, in which office he continued until the passing of the Municipal Reform Act, when he was dismissed. By the 66th and 67th sections of the Act, power was given to the Corporation to award compensation to persons who had served pnblic offices under them, either by a sum of money or annuity. Application was made to the Corporation for compensation, which they refused to give, and an ap peal was then made to the Lords of the Treasury, who directed that an annuity of 371. should be settled upon the applicant. Newton became a bankrupt, and his assignees prepared a bond, which the Corporation re fused to sign, and he now applied for a mandamus to compel them to do so. _ _ _ Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE granted a rule nisi. THE QUEEN V. THE CORPORATION OF PEMBROKE. Mr. \VILLIAMS moved for a v mandamus against Henry Phillips, Esq., one of the Aldermen of Pem broke, commanding him t o p rocee d t o th e election of a town councillor for Pembroke Ward, in the room of Mr. James Robinson Bryant. The circumstances were these. On the 6th November, 1838, Mr. Bryant was elected as one of three councillors, in the place of those who retired, but on the day of the election it was dis covered that he had not been rated, and as the Act provided that no one should be qualified to be a coun cillor who was not on the burgess-roll, it was suggested that, although Mr. Bryant was on the burgess-roll, w he had no right to be ther e , not b e i ng rate d. That objec tion,. hoever, was ill f oun d e d, for the Court of King's Bench had decided that a peribing on the roll was sufficient. Mr. Bryant was deterred, by the objection being taken, from the risk of taking office, which office could now only be filled by virtue-of a mandamus from this Court. His LORDSHIP granted a mandamus absolute in the first instance. EXCHEQUER COURT-THIS DAY. (Sittings in Banco.) JOHNSON V. REID. This was an action brought to recover damages fur trespass and false imprisonment, which was tried before the Lord Chief Justice (Denman), at the late Assizes for the county of Surrey, held at Croydon, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff—damages 451. Mr. THESIGER. now moved for a rule nisi for a nonsuit or for a new trial. The action was for false im prisonment, against a Magistrate for Surrey. The plain tiff, it was proved, was a journeyman calico printer, in the employment of Mr. Makepiece. That gentleman was in the habit of paying all his workmen by piece work—all the materials used by the journeymen were the property of Mr. Makepiece, and they all worked on his premises. The plaintiff received blocks, &c. with which to print some calicoes, from Mr. Make piece, but he neglected his work, and left the premises without either notice or cause. Mr. Makepiece had him apprehended, and being taken before the defendant he was committed for a certain period of imprisonment under the statute. Application was made to a Judge at Chambers—a writ of habeas corpus was sued out, and on hearing the case Mr. Justice Williams dis charged the plaintiff, on the authority of the case of Hardy v. —9, Barnewell and Creswell 603, in which the plaintiff was discharged, he having been given a quantity of silk to be by him made into cloth. It was there held that such a case did not come within the statute, he not being a servant of the party. In this case, however, not only were the materials the property of the master, but all his men worked on his premises, and the mode of payment of the wages was a mere ar rangement for the convenience of the parties. The COURT—Take a rule. VAUGHAN V. FITZHUGH AND.ANOTHER. This was an action to recover the sum of 8691., advanced by the plaintiff to the `captain of a ship, the property of Mr. , deceased, whose executors the defendants were. It was tried at the late Liverpool Assizes, before Mr. Baron Maule, when the Jury found for the plaintiff for the sum claimed. . _ Mr. CRESWELL now moved for a rule nisi to reduce the verdict to 2001. The plaintiff was a merchant in Demerara, whose brother chartered the vessel in ques tion on his account for a voyage to Honduras and back. Bythe charter-party the plaintiff was to advance the cap. tarn to the extent of 2001. The ship met with a variety of accidents, and the plaintiff had advanced the whole sum of 869/. The question was, was not the plaintiff bound by the charter-party, and concluded from recovering more than the 2001. therein specified. At the trial the Judge was of opinion that the charter-party compelled him to advance the 2001., but did not take from the captain his power to raise a sum sufficient for the pur poses of the ship. The COURT were of the same opinion, and refused the rule. Mr. CRESWELL would then move for an arrest of judgment upon a misjoinder in the pleas. Rule nisi granted on this point. SEWELL V. RABIC. vies - also an action which was tried before Mr. BarOn'Manfe at Liverpool, when the Jury fo un d a ver dict for the plaintiff—damages 221. Mr. CRESWELL now, by leave reserved to him by the Learned Judge, moved for a rule nisi for a nonsuit. The action was for money had and received to the use of the plaintiff. It appeared that plaintiff and four other persons agreed to build a church at Tramyear. They did so ; and after paying all the expenses attendant upon the worship the residue of the pew rents were to be divided into five shares. Sewell, it appeared, had failed to pay up his full proportion of the building ex penses, and an action for contribution was brought against hi m . While it was still undecided the then Churchwardens made out an account, from which it appeared that after paying all expenses the residue of the pew rents afforded the sum of 22/. to each of the five shares. Sewell had been then offered his share, but refused it. Before the settlement of the action against Sewell, the then Churchwardens went out of office, and Sewell and Raby came in. The former Churchwardens paid over the 22/. they had in hand to Raby, at the same time telling him not to part with it to Sewell, until the action against him was settled. Under no circumstances then could it be held that Raby held the money to the use of the plaintiff ; if he held it in his capacity of Church warden, his co-Churchwarden would not sue him, and it was clearly proved that he was not to pay over the money until the action against Sewell was determined, which it was not when the present action was corn menced.—Rule granted. SHERIFFS' COURT-(THIS DAY.) CIIAMBERLAYNE V. LEVELL. This was an action brought to recover the sum of 8/. 12s. 6d. for goods sold and delivered. Mr. CREW appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Titostas for the defendant. The plaintiff in this case is a beer-shopkeeper, and the defendant is a foreman employed on some buildings which are erecting in the neighbourhood of the plaintiff's beer shop. The barman of the plaintiff proved the delivery of certain quantities of beer and provisions to the woKk men in the employ of the defendant. These persons gave the witness tickets, who gave thorn to his master. They were transcribed in chalk on a door, and subse quently entered in a book, in the presence of the de fendant, when the tickets were returned to him. On his cross-examination he admitted that he could neither write nor read writing, and that he had entered the plaintiff's service since tho commencement of these transactions. The Clerk to the defendant's attorney proved that the defendant had called at his master's office, and pro duced. an account saying he would pay for what he had himself, but not for what the men had had. On his cross-examination he stated, that the defend ant had kept the paper in his hand, and that he had not seen any of the items, but concluded that it was an account. Mr. THOMAS for the defence, stated that the defend ant denied the debt in toto ; that he had never been furnished with a bill of particulars until a few days since, when he had been obliged to get a Judge's order for the same, and that the particulars so furnished did not correspond with the book produced by the plaintiff. The U U NDER-SHERI FF, thought I defendantF Finsumimlaidnggilu,epn the plaintiff, said that if the Jury orders to supply the articles in question on his credit, then their verdict must be for the plaintiff, but if they thought the evidence only went to prove that the de fendant had consented to become answerable after a portion of the goods bad been supplied, they must find for the defendant, as no undertaking to pay the debt of another, already contracted, was valid in law except the same was in writing. There was also a discrepancy in the accounts, to which the Jury should direct their attention. The Jury found a verdict for the defendant. MARLBOROUGH - *TREET (THIS DAY.) George Acoti and Thomas Sheen, who have been in custody before on different charges of housebreaking, were placed at the bar, on the following charge. Mr. Gibson of the Feather's public-house in Mar shall -street, Golden-square, stated that about ten o'clock last night, while serving in the bar, he heard a private alarm bell, fixed in his bed room, rin g . He directly; proceeded up stairs, and discovered that a door on the landing of the stairs had been opened by a skeleton key ; and on entering his bed-room, the two prisoners were found scrambling under the bed to hide themselves. They were secured on the floor ; beside them were found an iron jemmy or crowbar, &c. The prisoners were sentenced to three, months' im prisonment in the House of Correction, and hard labour.

COURT-MARTIAL AT WINDSOR.-011 Mon day a Court-martial was held at the Barracks, Shut street, upon Daniel Hobbs, a private in the 2d batta lion of the Rifle Brigade, who was charged with leaving his post, and totally neglecting his duty, during the period he was stationed as sentry on the north-east por tion of the terrace of the Castle, at the time her Ma jesty was promenading in front of the private apart ments. It appeared that the soldier had wandered upwards of twenty yards from his post, for the supposed purpose of gratifying his curiosity by having a closer view of the Queen. During the period of the man's temporary absence upwards of sixty persons obtruded themselves upon that part of the New Terrace (from which they would have otherwise been excluded), to the great annoyance of her Majesty, and of her distinguished visitors and suite. The Court found the prisoner guilty of neglect of duty and deserting his post, and sentenced him to the lenient punishment of only 20 days confinement. Har Royal Highness the Princess Sophia Ma tilda met with a severe accident while at Broadstaits, which was nearly attended with fatal consequences. It appears that her Royal Highness was in her drawing room after dinner, in company with Lady A. Gordon, her lady in waiting, when by some accident her dress caught fire, which being observed by Lady Gordon, she attempted to extinguish it, at the same time calling for assistance. Mr. Gardiner, the Page, instantly rushed into the room. The Princess, with great pre sence of mind, on finding the danger she was in, threw herself down on the sofa and partly smothered the flames, which were put out by Mr. Gardiner ; it was then discovered that her Royal Highness was severely burnt about the arm, which rendered her incapable of writing for some time ; but we are happy to state that she is perfectly recovered. The affair was kept secret during her sojurn at Broadstairs. Had it terminated fatally her loss would have been severely felt by the poor of this and . other neighbourhoods. as during the winter months her charity is extended to hundreds of persons who apply to her, and whom she relieves in a most delicate manner ; never refusing any of the deserving ; and doing more good with her limited in come, than many possessing three times as much.— West Kent Guardian. The late Duke of Argyll has died far from wealthy. His Grace's entailed estates descend to the present Duke ; but his personal property has been be queathed to Miss Campbell, a relative, who resided with his Grace at the time of his unexpected demise.

At a meeting of the Jockey Club, held on Wednesday in the Houghton Meeting, the following resolutions were passed : " That in case any objection to the qualification of a horse, on the ground of incorrect pedigree cr nomination, to be made before the race is run, the Stewards shall have the power of or dering that the settlement on such race shall be suspended until the objection shall have been investigated; but if such objec ti.n be made after the race, it shall not affect the bets,_ which must go with the horse that conies in first, provided that he is of the right, and not otherwise disqualified by the laws of racing. " That Rule 44 of the Jockey Club should stand as follows ; Every person who shall ride for a race at Newmarket shall be weighed immediately-after the same, and shall be allowed 2lbs above the weight specified for his horse to carry, and no mere, unless the weight he actually rode Ise declared as the weight he intended to ride ; and if any horse shall carry more than 21bs above his weight without a declaration having beeti made by the jockey or the owner of the horse, or by his servant, to the Steward or the keeper of the match-book at least one hour before the time fixed for the first race of the day, then such horse shall not he considered the win ner of the race, even though he should come in first, but shall be placed as the last horse in the race, and his owner shall pay the stakes for a beaten horse ; and whether the horse come in first or not the jockey shall be tined 51. for his neglect, and shall not be allowed to ride in a public race at Newmarket untii the said fine be paid.' " That Rule 37, concerning horse-racing in general' be re pealed, and the following substituted : " A horse walking over, or receiving forfeit, except for a match, shall be declared a winner.' " That all forfeits or money paid on compromising any match or sweepstakes shall bona-fide be entered in the day book, in order that all betters may ascertain in what proportion they are to pay and receive. " That no rule, or alteration of a rule of the Jockey Club shall take effect till it has been published in the Racing Calendar, un less specially ordered to the contrary at the time the said rule or alteration is adopted." LITERATURE. IJEMANS'S POEMS. VoL. VI. Blackwood, Edinburgh, I 839. _ . The present volume of this republication of the poems of one of our most popular modern authors, contains " Songs of the Affections" which she always ranked among the happiest of her produc tions ; " National Lyrics ;" and a variety of mis cellaneous poems, among which are those two beautiful little pieces, the " Two Voices," and the " Parting Ship," both of which are familiar, no doubt, to the generality of our readers. The volume is embellished with a striking Plate engraved by Kernot, from a sketch by Mrs. Hemans, and repre senting the " Bridge over the Clwyd, near St. Asaph." Considering the superior style in which this edition is got up, it is singularly cheap in price ; and we are glad to learn that it is popular. DAVENPORT'S HISTORICAL CLASS BOOK. Re'le, London, 1839. A very serviceable school-book, containing nu merous extracts from the works of modern histo rians, divided into short reading lessons, and well calculated to arrest the attention of young people. The compiler observes in his preface, " the selec tions have been made with the most scupulous care, both as to purity of thought and propriety of dic tion, in order that the work may may be placed with the utmost confidence in the hands of youth of both sexes." To this praise the Historical Class-Book is fully entitled. COMMON COUN CIL. DIVISION ON THE MOTION FOR A GRANT TOWARDS THE BUILDING OF TEN CHURCHES AT BETHNAL.GREEN.

Wit; respect to the other particulars, the number of lives lost and of the wounded, who I am sorry to say are much more numerous than my former accounts stated, there are at least 20 dead and 50 wounded. .The greater number of the bodies now lie at the Westgate ;lac], the scene of those dreadful doings, and no doubt ill enter tained but that many more are lying in the fickt:', aed carried over the hills by their comrades in this drei. dful work. Oniy two of the bodies are yet identified ; one by card found on his person, representing him to be a member of the Chartist Society ; and the other has been recognised as a deserter from the 29th Regiment - recently stationed here, and who, these is no donbt, . had organised and drilled the rioters, as they were un der his guidance, and came down in marching order, and wheeled about before the Westgate Hotel in mili. 1 tarn style. The Mayor, Thomas Phillips junior, Esq., • who I stated in my last was wounded in the arm and thigh, lies in a very serious state, and it is even feared that he wiil be obliged to lose his arm. It is utterly impossible to praise too highly the dis creet and meritorious conduct of the officers and men of the 45th Regiment, ander the command of Major Stack. It appears there were but thirty men at the Westgate Hotel at the time the attack was commenced, but they were immediately prepared for it, as they had been waiting all night in the expectation of the attack. The Chews! s marched down in military array, armed in the most formidable manner, with guns, pikes, axes, clubs, Bec., and commenced firing on the windows, hav ing first summoned the parties in possession to " surren der themselves prisoners." They then made a charge on the house, and took possession of the greater part cf the basement story. The gailant little band of soldiers, however, pl ace d themselves in the principal dining-room and a room on the first floor, which gave them a commanding position. They fired the first round. over the heads of the rioters, which, producing no good. effect, they went to work in earnest, and in the course of a quarter of an hour dispersed and routed this for midable force. The rioters fled in all directions, and left many of their wretched victims on the ground, to gether with a great quantity of arms. Several cart loads of implements have been collected from the streets and fields in the immediat e neighbourhood. The in habitants are loud in their praises and thankfulness to their gallant little band of preservers, and say almost universally that had it not been for them every soul in the town would have been murdered, and the town re duced to a heap of ruins. lam happy to say that a portion of the gallant 10th Royal Hussars ere now parading the streets mounted, having arrived here this morning by forced marches from Bristol ; and, from their previous high reputation, the inhabitants of New port feel sow somewhat secure. But still there are momentarily alarms given of fresh attacks, and it is more than probable that an attempt will be made in the course of the night to rescue Frost. There is no doubt, from the examination of the wit nesses against Frost and Waters, the principal and one of the leaders, subjoined to this, that a most formidable system of organization exists. Time will not admit of my making any further allusions to the most extraordi nary facts elicited. It appears to be quite clear and conclusive against Frost and Waters ; but many others are implicated, and the further hearing of the evidence is postponed for two hours. It is scarcely necessary to mention that the town of Newport is in a complete state of disorder—all business and ordinary occupation being suspended, and every respectable male inhabitant is sworn in as a special constable. The manner in which Frost was taken is fully detailed in the evidence, and the Magistrates and officers deserve great credit for their zeal, energy, and decision. The examination of the witnesses commenced at eleven o'clock this morning, before Brewer, Esq., Chairman ; R. J. Blewitt, Esq., M.P. ; George Hall, Esq. ; Rev. J. Cole, T. L. Edwards, Esq., and Thomas Jones Phillips, Esq., Clerk to the Magistrates. R. J. Blewitt, Esq., conducted the examination. Neither of the prisoners had any legal assistance, and, with one exception, declined to ask any ques tions. Frost is a man of about fifty-six years of age, of the middle size, gray hair and eyes. He appeared pale and agitated ; but there was rather a scornful expres sion curling about his lip. Waters, the other prisoner, is about twenty-four years of age, and is a ship carpen ter. Following the example of Frost, be also declined asking any questions, and appeared rather sullen and ; but I understand he had been a very well disposed and well conducted young man till he was seized by the Chartist mania, since which he has paid. but very little attention to his occupation. On the prisoners being brought in, Mr. Blewitt, addressing them, said—You, John Frost and Charles Waters, stand charged with_ the crime of sedition and treason. Do you require any professional assistance ? Both prisoners answered in a firm tone—No, we require none. Tile examination then commenced— The first witness called was Matthew Williams, one of the rioters, who was so badly wounded as to be scarcely able to sit to give his evidence without fainting. On being sworn, he stated as follows :—I am a quarry men. I live at the Argoe, near Blackwood. Last Sa turday night, at ten o'clock, I attended a Chartist lodge at William Williams's house. It is a beer•bouse. There were a great many others there ; but I did not know them. Two persons acted as stewards. I dare say there were fifty present. The names of eleven of us were called over. We were told to do as the captain told us. I was a new member. The captain was a collier, but I do not know his name. I was not or dered to go anywhere. The captain called over the names. I was told to pay sd. by one of them after wards. I said I had none. Some of the men gave sd. each to the stewards. A captain was named over me. He was called Harry. Ido not know him. I have not been long in the place. I am a stranger. The captain was to give us some instructions on Sun day morning. We were to meet between nine and ten next morning near the chapel. I was a new member. Was going to the chapel in the morn ing ; met the captain with three or four more on the war. About five in the whole came together. Agreed to meet at five or six that night at same place. Went to the lodge meeting on that Sunday evening ; dare say one hundred there. Know George Reeves ; he was there. Knew him by that nsme. I have a very bad memory, arid cannot well recollect. Some asked what did we want at Newport. Some asked what were we geing - to do there. George Reeves said we were to go there and stop all traffic, stop all trade, the coaches, and the post. Somebody did ask if Mr. Frost was bard by ? Some one said he was. Frost objected that this was not evidence against him. Mr. Blewitt said—Not against you, but preliminary to the general case. [At this moment the 10th Hussars arriving caused some interruption.] Examination of Williams resumed—After that we said if we could not have Mr. Frost before us, we should go no further. It was agreed that we should send after Mr. Frost, and stop him on the way. Two men were sent to Newbridge. If they did not find him there, we were to go no further. We were to meet again at the Royal Oak. After I left Lodge went home to bed. Went out from Lodge about six o'clock. Had something at the Royal Oak. Some nourishment at six o'clock in the evening ; went to bed. In the morning a good many came to my door, and said they would break the door in if I (lid not come out. There was a guard over me. I was forced to go with that party. I was obliged to go with a party to Newbridge. I had no arms, only a walking-stick with a great nob at the end of it. Joined by many lots of men as we went down the road. They were armed with a great number of pikes, and some guns and swords, and sticks or stakes. Knew some of the men there by sight. Good many acted as leaders. Was stranger to leaders on that day, because we would not go down without strangers led us. Some person said Mr. Frost was gone ahead ; we were t o f o ll ow. Did go on, and met Mr. Frost at the Royal Oak beer house at Cefus-ty-Marchog, near Risca. There were strange men there. Saw some of them armed. Frost was walking about from one to the other. Did not speak to me. Saw him speaking to several, but did not hear what he said. He did not give any direction to the men. Did not know Charles \\ aters from Newport, now in the room. Frost went out and came in with a so words spoken, whatg reai partytt more men, and believes they were armed. All this was l in the dead of the night. There was a very large party. Several hundred then went on to Newport. Went in marching order. Frost told some of them something, but not to me. He gave orders to put us on the way to walk. We halted at many places that we might come together. Frost was sometimes in front, sometimes at the side. Game to Newport through Tredegar-park about daylight. Came armed from Tredegar-gark to the top of Stow-hill. Halted at the Machine. Did not see John Frost there. Saw him at the Friars, walking about from one to the other. Did not see biti, do any thing else. Saw Frost last time near the Roman Catholic Chapel. Frost was walking along as usual alongside. All the party armed was walking down the middle of the bill. Fro h s i t n w d as there. Did not see where Frost went. many hundred. Could hear some s l and this house. h ry en of was. When a w e out, Saw guns fired. They then cried " Let us break came round ro fire," un d theu h could corner er r n o o sf t a w t e forward. In about ten minutes I was knocked down. Did not know who did kn th it. I was not deprived of my senses, but I laid down eewkiinudgo wws,i't'hanpikes stoppedagainst Reeves had, been till some one came to me. I think Frost had a cane in • his hand, but I don't know.
