L OND ON : SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21. 1839. Some further correspondence has been published between the Rev. H. J. D uucompx, who acted for the Ofigy c(Tbirsk, in presentin g their late remon- •-strance to the Mantis of LONDONDERRY, touching she duel his Lordship fought with Mr. GRATTAN. The Rev. Gentleman now. acknowledges, " with gra,;eful sorrow," the receipt of his Lordship's let , ter, and proceeds to argue with his Noble Corre ;x&Rodent on the propriety of the Clergy sounding . . .•'the oracles of God" into the ears of sinful leaders of armies, and q i i2 the propriety of listening to them before any other oracles. The Marquis, kowerer, continues obstinate in his heresy, and ill hare none of the Priest's counsel. He would do battle to uphold the glorious Protestant political Church in Ireland ; he would hew down the Char tilts and Dissenters in England who would upset it ; but as for its precuts the Clergy may teach ahem, for the Noble Marquis, to the paupers and bw,gars. He declares his disobedience to the Church in the following letter:— " Eglinton Castle, Sept. 2, 1839. " Sir,—l have the honour to acknowlei , ' e the rec e ipt of your te:ond letter,. I feel it would ill become me to A ar: Ave the discussion. I close it, therefore, with the regret that I cannot surrender the decision upon a point my personal professional honour to the opinions of a body of clergymen however respectable ; and the same (rase occurring must be met in the same manner by ire, and I am perfectly confident would be equally so dealt with by ali British soldiers. •• I hays , the honour to be, " Yoefery obedient servant, "VANE LONDONDERRY." The Marquis answers for the whole armv as welt as him ietf, and solemnly assures the lector of Tipton, that 014 indifferent matters they may perhaps hearken to the priesthood, but that on mat ters which interest the Marquis, o r t ouc h hi s pro fressiona! honour, he and all British soldiers will mock at their precepts. Professional honour is a phrase of wide meaning, and embraces all the actions of a soldier. His honour equally requires Oat h? should be properly dressed on pa rad.:, obedient to his Commanders, whatever they Ir ,ay order, courageous in the field, and ready to fi lt h; if insulted. Such a declaration really removes ail the military from under the Church, and in their na me the Marquis sets, what the Rector calls, the oracles of God" at defiance. But tile Marquis is a senator as well as a soldier, and many of his brother soldiers are also senators. In this cipacity he and they make laws to uphold the Church ; why is this when they despise and disregard its doctrines for themselves ? Let us explain this apparently strange circumstance. How ever inuqi any man may suppose the restraints of unnecessary for himself, conceiving his own inclinations to be all on the side of virtue, or that the laws cf honour are a more suitable code 1 . ,,>r him than the laws of the Gospel, there is seaiTelv any man rho does not think the restraints -, .f religion necessary for his neighbour. He never ( i_ i redid3 his own desires or his own passions, but he Trisi4t ths.tsNires and passions cf others may j*! t r , u'r")t. them to perform.. and he is therefore anxious !tie their clesites and passions placed under ' ro ° r ieligion. Hence the Marquis and hisfellows endow a State Church, give large reve l. !Ales to the el„ gy, and get up - religious ceremonies some Pomptoot and show, that the clergy may . bv curb tight, by the combines:lin &knee of wealth, rank and ikaetion of the State true origin an 4azd u sp i iri . tual terror. That Cturch. It is sot up, expense of much oppression, that aeotr it a f T t the misery, blood shell, by those who, like the prnt iSi i l ue a r s i : Y oq : other men,mayd —ON DONDARRY, despise its precepts, to train the desires and passions ' o f enable those who, uphold it to have more of their an own way uncontrolled. This is, in ,a great mr.jority of cases, as true of as of the Legislature which State-paid Clergy maintains them in the possession of their revenues. They think - the rest`raints of religion necessary for thi great bulk of L'ocietY ; but that they d o not think them necessary for themselves is plain, frOm the fact that their continually disregard the doetrino.s they Peach. The Gospel enjoins charity, love, 'rind disinterestedness. If any part of it can be said to be terrible, it is the den,'inciations against the possessors of wealth ; and the clergy, who teach those doctrines, pass their lives reviling men who profe 4o a different faith from their own, m keeping alive political and religious strife, in nourishing hatred omongst ri va l sectarians, and in the gran sost foul greediness. Ti'iey must have is of poun6 a year, sumptuous palaces, ages ; and they even rob the poor, as tly proved by several examples, to obtain that wealth which :the Gospel denounces. They, therefore, like the lay legislators, prescribe the restraints of religion for other men, and wholly disregardthem for themselves. Theirespecial enforce ment of obedience under the hardships of poverty, and their continual grasping at wealth, gives rise to the suspicion that they emphatically recommend this particular restraint to others, in order more se curely to gratify their own greediness. When the Clergy have formed an alliance with the State, it has been to make the State subser rien: to their purposes, and when that has failed, they have claimed for themselves a superior mis sion, 'and have endeavoured to trample the State under their feet. At the dinner at Collurapton, on Wednesday, the most honoured toast was the Church and State, placing the Church first. The Clergyman who spoke to the toast quite agreed in the sentiment that it was the duty of the Clergy to " make the State religious," or prescribe its duties. Because Lord MELBOURNE'S Ministry has not been the mere tool of the Clergy, they have fallen back on the spiritual source of their power, and have played off the Church against the Govern ment. The Rector of Ti c ,uston's letter to Lord LONDONDERRY, and the former address of the Clergy of Thirsk to the Noble Marquis, proceed on an assumption of superiority to the law-maker. " Your Lordship asks," says the Rector, " did the clergy of any part of the empire remonstrate with the hero of a hundred fights, when he met Lord Winchilsea in a duel ; and from whence arises the extreme anxiety at this moment, upon a far humbler and less important matter? To the former question, as far as my own knowledge ex tends, I must reply, alas ! in the negative. But the Church (clergy and laity), on that sad occasion, was not wholly wanting in her duty. Those who were members of the British Society for Promoting the Principles of the Re formation, did not only (as I have been informed) remon strate with the Earl of Winchilsea, but felt themselves constrained, through their Committee, to require his Lordship to retire from that position which he held in that society, in consequence of his violation of those principles —the ascendancy of the Word of God." The Clergy then of the BritishiSociety, which we did not before know, exconnnunicate,:, as it were, the Earl of WINcIIILSEA for not obeying their directions, and if the Marquis of LONDON DERRY holds any office in the Church, his neigh bours at Thirsk will take care that he shall retire from it. Now that they are awakened to a true sense of their spiritual dignity, we shall see them refusing a living from the hands of such a despiser of the Church as the Marquis. He must be worse than a Catholic. The Rector of Tigston grounds his and his brethren's summons to the Marquis on the fact that " his anxiety to be faithful to CHRIST has in creased." The same may be said of the priesthood generally. They do not give up an atom of their wealth—they grasp after more, and endeavour to extend their control over the community, as a means of increasing their opulence and pout er. In season and out of season, however, they are zealous in their endeavours to fanaticise the nation. It, Scotland we are told, " Revivalism is becoming epidemical, and will, probably, sprea3 with a greater or less degree of celerity, into every part in Scotland. A portion of Clergy, both Established and assenting, are doing everything in their power to pro duce this result." In England they aim at revivals too ; they have attacked the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, and will soon make our Tories sensible that they cannot con trol the zeal they have kindled. How Sir ROBERT PEEL will deal with his fanatical allies when he returns to office we know not ; but he will find them a greater obstacle to his success than the Ladies of the Palace, or than Ireland itself. They will be his master, or they will rend him. Success, then, to the fanaticism the Tories have evoked. Mr. O'CONNELL'S letter, which appears in another part of The Sun, has at least the semblance of truth. If the English do not hate the Irish more intensely at this moment than ever before, it is not the fault of the Tory journals and the English Clergy. These true patriots—for a patriot is always known by abusing other nations, and these true Christians—for Christianity is solely and exclusively possessed by the few millions of persons who compose the Anglican Church, have done all in their power, for the last six years, to make the Eng lish hate the Irish. Mr. O'CONNELL says truly, that the strength of the Tories consists in the culti vation of national prejudice against the Irish, and a malignant enmity to.their religion. We trust he overrates their strength and their success, but such has been the lanprage continually used by the Clergy of the Anglican Church, and by the Tory Journals, and such has been the conduct of the Tories in Parliament, that he has a warrant for telling his countrymen that a spirit of hatred to Ireland has been nou rished in England. At any rate he telN them that ; and the scandalous abuse of the " surpliced ruffians" of Ireland by the Tory Journals, the unceasing hostility which they display to every thing Irish and, Catholic, afford him the rnear_s of justifying his assertion. The Tories have put into his hands the stick with which he will continue to thrash them out of office. Their pleasant vices carry their own punishment speedily in their train. Another veteran has paid the debt of nature. The gallant Sir THOMAS HARDY, for many years Lord NELSON'S friend and Lord NELSON'S right hand, died yesterday. He passed the few last years of his life at Greenwich Hospital, of which he was Governor, an appropriate abode for so dis tinguished a naval hero. But it was not for him a place of idleness ; he had many duties, which he performed till within a few days of his death. The early part of his life was one of incessant activity ; and he acquired all his honours by the most meri torious exertions. Equally brave and generous, ht was the model of a true-hearted English sailor, kind to his men, and terrible only to the enemies of his country. A cquad of Tories, we perceive, assembled the other day at Collumpton in Devonshire, to celebrate the triumphs of the party in that county. S;r Somebody KENNAWAY occupied the chair, the Member; for the different divisions of the Cou►►ty were present, and there was as much nonsense spoken as is usual on such occasions. The Tories are not very particular, when they congregate to• (Tether for a jollification, as to what they do or say, and therefore we are not surprised to find, in the mass of twaddle uttered at the Collumpton guzzle, a very fair sprinkling of falsehood. When the Chairman came to the toast of " Church and State" he tried to explain the sense in which he proposed that it should be drunk, adopting the language of a "distinguished charac ter,' who had said that it was " not that thfy wished to make the Church political, but that they desired to make the State religious." If this then he the object of connecting the Church with the State, may we not ask the advocates of the union how it happens that they persist in upholding a system which has worked so ill even according to their own admission ? Has not the Church become polij tical ? Has the State become religious ? The very end and aim of the ill-sorted alliance having avowedly failed—the Church having become cor iupted, having sacrificed the simplicity, the purity, the holiness, the spirituality of the Christian reli gion at the shrine of worldly ambition, has not only not communicated any of its lost virtue to the State, but has actually prevented the State from being so religious as it would, if left to itself, have been ; and made it, on too many occa sions, the instrument of the greatest atro • cities that ever were perpetrated by man. What were the massacre of St. Bartholomew, the revocation of the Edict of Nantz, the persecu tion of Catholics by Protestants, of Protestants by Catholics, and—let Protestantism blush—of Protes tauts by Protestants, which has alternately taken place in this country, as each sect acquired political supremacy—what were all these, and multitudes of other instances that might be mentioned, but the truits--the genuine and natural fruits—of the union of Church and State ? To what ar e we to ascribe the gross ignorance, the degrading vice, and the consequent misery which so extensively prevail in our land, but to that lazi ness and negligence, that pride and selfishness, in short, to that secular spirit and worldly character, which distinguish the clergy of the richest Church in the world, and which that clergy owe to State patronage I t was their glorious privilege, Chairman, th at they did said this sapient not live under a voluntary system, but in a l an d "where t every parish had its minister, where everyetr was paid by the Stamtei,gahntdtehrm it, the rent- c h arge of his performingeld his endowment at the p r i ce , or as he j certain duties, which were those most calculated to preserve peace, harmony , an d unity, amon g th e i r fellow-subjects.' Now, if the duties of clergymen be .such as are here described, it is very clear that they have not performed them, and that, therefore, they have forfeited, according to this Chairman's doctrine, the endowments, by not paying the rent charge. But the real truth is, that the ministers of a State-patronised sect, so far from being properly qualified for preserving " peace, harmony, and unity," are, from the very circumstance of their position, the necessary promoters of war, discord, and disunion among their fellow-citizens. Intolerance is the natural and necessary attribute • of a State Church. The ministers of such a Church regard all who are not within its pale as aliens and enemies. Their unceasing object is to set forth the high pretensions, the unrivalled excellence, the apostolic lineage of their hierarchy, while they denounce other sects as idolaters, or hold them up to contempt as vulgar and ignorant follow ers of uncommissioned men calling themselves mi nisters of the Gospel, as vulgar and ignorant as themselves. To liberty of conscience—to freedom of thought in religious matters; the minister of an Established Church never can be reconciled. He cannot be made to understand the right of private judgment—you cannot hammer it into him, do what you will. Although it is the professed principle, and the chief corner -stone, as it is the only rational jus tification, of the so-called Reformation. No Pro testant State-Church acts upon it. All practically renounce it, and claim the same implicit obedience to their articles of faith as if they held the " infal. lible" doctrine of the more consistent Church of Rome. When it is kept in mind that to these disqualifications, for a general peace maker, the clergyman joins those which arise out of his claims on the pockets of the com munity—comprehending the legal and the ille gal—the tithes, the Church -rates, i.:le Easter offer-,.. ings.; and when it is also considered that he seldom scruples to show what spirit he is of in the measures which he adopts to enforce these claims, we cannot agree with the Chairman of this Tory meeting, that such a person is pre-eminently calculated to " pre serve peace, harmony, and union among his fellow subjects." We stated in our Evening Edition of yesterday that the Second Chamber of the Spanish Cortes was declared duly constituted on the 10th Inst. SENOR CALATRAVA, ex-President of the Coun cil, was elected President, and Senors ZIJMALA CARREGUY, LABORDA, JOACIIINI, LOPEZ, and CORTENA, were chosch Vice-Presidents. Senors CABALLERO, RODA, MOZA, and FELICE, were appointed Secretaries, which concluded the preli minary business .of the ,Chamber. The President on taking the chair to declare the Chamber consti tuted thanked the Deputies 'for the honour they had done him, and after moving a vote of thanks to the Provisional President and Secretaries, offered for the adoption of the Chamber the following ad dress to the QUEEN-REGENT, signed by no fewer than eighty-five Deputies : " Madam—The Congress of Deputies, which has just solemnly constituted itself, hastens to congratulate your Majesty on the happy and extraordinary event of Bergara, an event which, whilst it strengthens the legitimate throne, promises to the Spanish nation a glorious and stable peace, and the complete triumph of the institutions which it has given it self. AR the provinces have received, with unexampled' rap. tore, the news of the submission of the rebels who had hitherto warred in the Basque Provinces against your Government, which they have just acknowledged. From r.II parts a just gratitude is felt for the illustrious General Espartero, who has so skilfully concluded such diffieuit negotiations. The Congress does not only admire his valour, his military qua. lities, and the fortunate prestige to which the country owes, in great part, her days of glory, derived from her valiant army, but admires still more the skill and prudence that ho has displayed on such important occasions, as well as the de cision and resolution of which he has given proofs in so many difficult circumstances, and, above all, that in such solemn and decisive moments he has displayed for the Constitution and the powers of the State a sentiment so essentially Spanish of love for the independence of his country, and the sincere and profound respect for her institutions he has evinced increases the value of the engagement he made. This word of a Spanish soldier, which has sufficed for two opposing armies to embrace each other, following the exam ple of their Generals with mutual and absolute confidence, the Congress regards as a national debt, and is resolved to acquit it, on its part, not only with the fidelity that it merits, but also with all the generosity which its powers permit it to grant. Thus not only the Congress will ratify, if it be necessary, the ranks and employs acknowledged by virtue of the Bergara Convention, but, in preference to every other urgent question, it will occupy itself to examine the pro ject of law, which your Majesty's Government has an nounced, respecting the fueros of the Basque provinces, disposed as it is to grant to these provinces all that, with out being contrary to the Constitution which governs us, can contribute to their proSperity. The Congress, in the meanwhile, has the honour to assure 3 our Majesty before ' hand that the objects of its deliberations will be the gene.. rat pacification, which cannot be considered as complete and durable but when it will conciliate at much as possible the interests of Spain." Loud acclamations followed the reading of this address, which was at once voted without discus sion, and a deputation appointed to present it to the QUEEN. The following is her :vIAJESTY 9 S answer:— " I receive with infinite pleasure the message and the felicitations of Congress at a moment when my heart is filled with joy and hope. I have always relied upon the friendly feelings of the Cortes for everything which miet contribute to the grand object, already commenced, of the general pacification."- In the sitting - of- the 11th the War Minis ter, General ALAIX, presented to the Chamber a project of law, - or .rather, 'according to British lorms of legislation, moved a resolution of the Chambers, declaring the .fiteros of the Basques for the present confirmed. This resolution encountered no more opposition than the address to theQuErol, from whence we infer that the. Cortes are not dis posed to set aside any of the conditions of the treaty of Bergara, and that no: pretext will be allowed the disaffected on the score of political rights and privileges to remain another day in arms against the Conititntional authorities.. This affords us very sincere pleasure, as such moderation and good faith on the part of the Cortes will extinguish ever); ember of insurrection in the Peninsula, and restore the utmost confidence to all classes of the people. Now is the time to display. a generous policy towards the revolted provinces. The Pretender, it appears, was seated comfort ably at dinner at Urday., when his affrighted atten dants informed him that ESIPA LITER° was coming to make one of the party. This unpleasant intelli gence was hardly communiicated to the terror stricken CARLOS, before the firing of shots was dis tinctly heard, and he started from the table in an agony of fear and perplexity. The :Princess of BEIRA dis played somewhat more presence of mind. She gave orders for the destruction of various letters and papers, and seizing the consi - :.:.rated standard of the Virgin of Seven Sorrows, whom six years ago the. Pretender appointed Generalissima of his forces ; she, w ith Don CARLOS, Don SEBASTIAN, and their attendants, scampered off in the direction of the French frontier. Beim an hour had elapsed, the Christinos were in possession of the Pre tender's dining apartment, ;Oil expressed them selves by • no means ungritefv.ll for his attention to their comforts. A correspondent of Galignrtni's Messenger, 'in a letter from Bayonne, states that; the Navarrese batta lions, which accompanied CA:itrms to Urdax, had no idea up to the latest moment that the Pretender intended himself to take refuge in France. They imagined that they were on!y moving on the frontier in order to protect the departure of the Princess DE BEIRA and the rest of the Royal family, and that Don CARLOS would remain at their head, and either be victorious or die in battle, as he had so lemnly pledged himself to do on first assuming arms in 1834. The indignation of these troops was ex treme, and those who did not utke refuge in France immediately dispersed themselves among the moun tains. The French Government takes great credit to itself for the share it has had iu bringing the civil war in Spain to a happy termination. Th e follow ing are the terms in which this event is described in the M.niteur of Wednesday " Pressed on all aides by the troops of Espartero, Don Carlos has just sought a refuge in France. The remainder of the Cdrlist bands, actively pursued, separated from each other, demoralised by the retreat cf the Pretender, divided by internal dissensions, dissolved in fact by their want of discipline, and all the excesses which accompany it, cannot 'oe long in making their submission to the Queen's troops. The moment then approaches, it may now be hoped, when the civil war which desolates Spain and afflicts humanity, will be at last terminated to recommence no more. There is no illusion, nor is it contrary to truth to attribute a portion of this happy result to the po hiey pursued by the Cabinet of the 12th of May. The attitude which this Ministry assumed towards Spain, its declaration in the Chamber of Deputies, the orders which it caused to be executed on the frontiers, the instructions which it gave to the French naval forces on the coast of the Peninsula, the negociations which it has carried on in concert with England, our ally, have without doubt contributed to bring about a denouement hitherto unhoped for some months since, and yet already almost entirely accomplished, Spain bas not been de ceived as to the efficacy of the new testimonies of sympathy which the p resent Cabinet a as soon as it came i nto power, to thessist waralcseanaxndiouosf tolivgeilvye, fication of a i n , MEWS 'AM. nsands ~ 4tartl4 Te 4 4o-. , cell 4,-,,, .., -7 , , 5% - ,..A.1,., d,e;7.4. . fZer, , • .

These testimonials have been re ceived by the friends of constitutional order in Spain with marks of non-equivocal joy end gratitude, at the same time that they spread amongst the favourers of counter revolution the consciousness of the inutility of their efforts, and of the vanity of their hopes. The consequences of such a line of conduct have been prompt and decisive, and the Government has the right to congratulate itself on the success of its policy, for it has done nothing beyond what prudence and the national interests commanded, and jet what it has done has sufficed." The Guienne of Bordeaux, as well as most of the other Carlist organs in France, publish all manner of rigmarole accounts of the successes and determination of CABRERA—n o w the last hope of the Absolutists. The following specimen, from the columns of the Journal we have mentioned, is sufficiently ridiculous : As soon •as the English Commissioners, sent by Lord Palmerston to treat with Cabrera, arrived at his head quarters, the General gave them to understand that be was elready aware of their object. During dinner the conversation turned on different subjects ; but when the Commissioners began to speak about bringing the war to a conclusion by means of treaties, Cabrera said " I do not like to talk about politics. I know that the object of all 'your treaties, all your measures, is the benefit of your commerce. If you will sell me some muskets, I will pay , you in ready money. This is my diplomacy and my sys tern of spoliation." Dinner being over, the English men withdrew, astonished at the firmness of the student of Tortosa. —A courier extraordinary was sent by Espartero to Cabrera with a copy of the treaty signed by Maroto, and urging Cabrera to avail him. self of the advantages it ensured to h.m and his followers ; but he tore up the treaty before the face of the messenger, and told him that if in less than twenty-four King's domi n ions, be should he,r afterm a d s a dd r ess e d thea " is th e ans w e r you may bh carry s o wisspTarihroitste, added ecdtahbere to following. letter to the English Commissioners, dated Ca. landa, Aug. 7:— tohavteinllg my mind filled with F you that I h ave ' i ns t a ll e d young Gentlemen—from men of Calatayud, Gaspe; and helve yvGetiebffnaat battalions CarOca, all used t:4 carry foe musket, but lam reall in want of arms to equip them.

I wait your answer. Accept, &c." This includes all the news worthy of notice re specting, Spain and the Pretender, in the French Journals. Letters from Hanover, dated the 15th instant, state that, the great body of the citizens, after re- : ceiving the answer mentioned in our extracts from the Hamburg Papers, were then going up. with another petition ; prij inn- his MAJ E STY to reinstate the Stadt Director, RIIiNIAN, in his functions. Should their request be refused, it was expected that the refusal would give rise to important pro ceedings on the part of the citizens. The tribunal to which the case of the Magistrates has been referred, it 'is added, had pronounced itself competent to proceed with the case, but that there was no authority for suspending the Stadt Director. There is no political naws of any interest in the French Journals of ,Thursday, a rumour prevailed that the Government Wad received despatches from the French Consul at Alexandria, intimating that MEHEMET ALI, on receiving -certain guarantees from the Great Powers, would both restore the Turkish fleet and become reconciled with his old enemy KHOSREW PACIIA. •The France reports that the Spanish Govern ment is negociating with the French Government for a loan of a hundred millions of francs. In the Moniteur of Thursday we find the fol lowing account of the corn riots at Mons on the 16th inst. It will be read with painful interest : At ten in the te:eming, a hussar, who formed part of a patrol, having dropped behind, was ill-treated by the crowd ; upon which a detachment of horse soldiers charged and dispersed the aggressors, and took three persons into . custody. The crowd then increased in the market square, and in the street leading to the Alenson road. Barricades were formed in many places: The first, which was near the gendarmerie barracks, was immediately destroyed by the gendarmes, but the crowd were able to complete the principal barricade, near the Pont Royal, by materials from some works going on at the river side, without obstacle. This barricade became the central point of the revolt. The Procureur du Roi and his substitute, who repeatedly sum moned the crowd to depart, were received with volleys of stones, the rioters declaring that they would not cease their proceedings until those who had been taken into cus tody on the preceding evening and morning were set at liberty. The soldiers received no order to attack the bar ricade, and towards four a detaeimentof about 30 National Guards, having at their head the commandant of the National Guard of Le Mans, presented themselves. The Command ant having promised, upon his responsibility, the release of the prisoners, all the crowd followed him to the Palais de Justice, where the Municipal Council was assembled. The prisoners were released and the barricades were destroyed. But when the detachments of hussars were returning to their barracks they were booted and assailed by a shower of stones, and fresh barricades were thrown zap in their way. Towards six o'clock about four or five hundred persons left the town for the purpose of destroying a mill worked by machinery at l'Huisne; but finding there the Prefect, a detachment of infantry, the Commandant of the National Guard. and some of the National Guards, they were unable to accomplish their object. Whilst these scenes were going on at Le Mans, disturbances were also taking place at Mamers, in the same department. More than two hundred workmen assembled at the market, opposing themselves to the removal of the corn which had been pur chased by the millers of the neighbourhood, and taking out the horses from the carts and waggons which were laden with corn. The local authorities of Mather?, having no other armed force at their disposal than a few gen darmes, endeavoured to calm the mutineers by persuasion, but they were not able to prevent them from going to the bakers and innkeepers, and compelling them to send all their corn to the public warehouse of the town. The Ministerial journal concludes these details lay stating that troops have been ordered from various points to Le Mans and other parts of the department of the Sarthe. The General Commandant of the department being absent from illness when the disturbances broke out, General Lalande, Commandant of one of the departments of the division, has been sent to Le Mans to replace him. The Government :ikewise having considered the Prefect cf the Sarthe and the Procurcur du Roi of Le Mans to have committed serious faults in consenting to the forced sale of the waggons of corn that had been stopped by the rioters, and especially in giving up the prisoners on the clamours of the mob, has dismissed these two functionaries from their posts, and has sent a mili tary force into the Sarthe more than sufficient to p ut an en d to t h e r i ots . Royal ordonnances, dated yesterday i n t h e sam e journal, appoint M. Mancel, Prefect of the Vi enne , to t h e Prefec ture of the Sarthe, in the room of M. Rruley-Desverannes; and M. Massienne, Procureur du Roi at Lorient, to the same office at Le Mans, in the roam of M. Boursier. The Minister of Justice has ordered the Cour Royal of Angers to take cognizance of these disturbances. The Courier de Bordeaux of the 17th says : " It was reported on Change that a republican move. went had taken place at Madrid." " It is affirmed that this event is connected with the question of the fueros.—Gazette de France. The Zurich Gezette of the leth contains a protest of the 'States of Berne, Lucerne, Soleure, Bale, Saint Gall, Angorra, and Thurgovia, against the late events.

We bear that an answer from the Cabinet Ministry, refusing the request of the citizens, was given yesterday evening. The Royal Proclamation of the 10th was publicly made after the conclusion of Divine service in all the Churches. The minister stated it was done by his Majesty s command. HANOVER, SEPT. 11. —The Commissioners appointed to draw up the proposals relative to the Constitution, are said to have preceded with such dili g ence that their report will bc ready in a we e k. The Assembly of the Estates, it is said, will be convoked to meet in December. It is reported to be in contemplation to institute another criminal prosecution against the Magistrates, on account of the second representation. HANOVRIt. SEPT. 14.—The King received the guards to day; to-morrow his Majesty will go to Rotenkirchen, and then make a tour in the Hartz. The Crown Prince re turned yesterday, in good health, from Nordcrney. The Queen is still indisposed, and has not appeared for these six weeks at the Royal table. By the overland Mail from India, arrived this morning, bringing Bombay papers of the Ist of August, we learn that the " Old Lion of the Punjaub, Runjeet Singh, died, after a protracted illness, at Lahore. Run jeet Singh, was one of the most extraordinary of the many distinguished characters who figure in the modern history of India, From an origin still more obscure and less respectable than that of Mehemet Ali, he raised himself' by the force of his genius to the throne of one of the most powerful Ln . ;dotts on the Indus. His d a:h, at the present moment,. is an event of con , ziderable importance. The details have not et reached us, but if we receive them in time this evening, they shall appear in our Second Edition. CRIMINAL COUHT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. The COURT was again this morning prevented from pro ceeding with the business of the Session, for nearly an hour, in consequence of the non-attendance of an APer man. This. is the sec , nd time this occurrence has token place during the present Session. ( Before Mr. Justice Vationas.) BRUTAL OUTRAGE UPON A YOUNG FEMALE —William Baiter, aged 19, was capitally indicted for an assault upon Mary Anne Mears. The prosecutrix was a cripple. It appeared that on the night of the 14th inst., she was in the Barnett Road, when she met the prisoner, who was the driver of a country waggon. and he induced her to get up into the waggon, where the alleged offence was com mitted with great brutality by the prisoner and another man. The prisoner was taken into custody, but his corn. panion escaped. _ _ Mr. JlntiCe VAUGHAN summed up the evidence that had been adduced, and The Jury having retired for upwards of an hour, re turned a verdict of guilty, but recommended him to mercy. MURDER ON TILE HIGH SEAS. —.John Blonk, a seaman lat,ly serving in the Midas, a Copenhagen vessel, was indicted with feloniously assaulting and striking on the h?ad, on the 31st of July, John Sampson, the second mate of the vessel, with a handspike, of which blow he died the following day. From the evidence it appeared that on the day in question the Midas was beating up between Elsinore and Copenhagen, the deceased having the com mand of her when the assault took place, in consequence of some orders that had been given by the deceased to the prisoner. _ _ _ Mr. DOANE addressed the Jury on behalf of the prisoner. Mr. Justice COLTMAN summed up the case. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty of Manslaughter, and the Learned Judge sentenced him to fifteeen years' transportation. Afier this case had been concluded Mr. Justice VAUGHAN directed that William Baker who had been con victed cf a rape, should be placed at the bar to receive judgment. The Learned Judge then passed upon him the sentence of Death, holding out no hopes of mercy. NEW COURT. John Hogan, aged 21, was convicted of stealing a watch and chain and two seals, and sentenced to transportation fur seven years beyond the seas. The COMMON SERGEANT said the prisoner was well known as one of a gang of thieves. He had sentenced four of them yesterday to transportation, and he hoped the whole gang would very shortly be got rid of in the same way. MONEY AND COMMERCIALNEWS CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FRIDAY.—The ;;;:riet for American descriptions, which have been offered more freely, has been flat throughout the week, and all qua lities have been heavy of sale, particularly the middling and inferior classes which are to be had at a decline at fully per lb. The position of money affairs, in connexion wita the United States, being unsatisfactory, sufficiently accounts for the present gloomy aspect. The very reduced supply of Brazil and Snrat has ena bled holders to obtain a further advance. Exporters 'nave taken 1,500 bales of American and 660 Perna.ms ; the tales abut 3,000 bags of all kinds. A Hamburgh mail has arrived, of the 17th inst. Ex change comes 13. 3/ schilling higher; gold comes 432 k also higher. An overland express has arrived from India._ The continental exchanges yesterday afterncsn on Paris, Amsterdam, and Hamburgh were looking flat and rather lower. A Brazil mail has arrived by the packet ship Magnet ; sailed from Rio J.►aiero July 21, Bahia ith, and Pernam buco 14th August, with a freight of about 9,0004 'Ph* information by the above arrival is not of much importance; the Exchange had got up to 31 and 31, and bills had been drawn by the Brazilian Government on England at 32. The quarterly average of the weekly liabilities and v‘sets of the Bauk of England, from the 25th June to the 27th Sept., 1839, both inclusive, have been published, by which it will be perceived that the circulation is less by 9,0001; the deposits less by 248,0001. ; the securities more by 348,0001. ; bullion less by 449,0001. Our chief arrivals this morning are from the Brazils and an over- land express from India, the former is of little im portance, and in respect to the latter, the papers and let tern will not be delivered until twelve o'clock. THE FUNDS. The bad state of the weather this morning tends to damp the spirits of the speculators in Spanish Stock as well as the price having come lower from Paris, which has caused the above stock to recede in our market from the leaving off price of yesterday, 3'2 2- to 31 i 1.

FLOODS.—Such has been the immense quan tity of rain which has fallen in Nottinghamshire, that many of the low lands ore completely under water. The cars of East Retford are full three feet deep in water, which is the second visitation of the kind for the present season. For building purposes the cars of East Retford seem ad. mirably adapted. The heavy rains which fell towards the termination of last week, on the higher parts of the Derbyshire hills, occasioned a repetition of the flood which did so much damage a few weeks ago. It is very probable that great injury has been sustained on the lower soils. A similar fact at Doncaster races was never known. _—Doncaster Gazette. ELFCTIONT f‘F A PEP:I 3 E7ILN tr. CURATE 'lO THE PARISH OF ST. JAMES'S CLERK ENWELL. State of the Poll at thlose, Yesterday : Rev. W. E. L. Faulkner 1,132 Rev. Dr. Dillon 913 Alajorit . y for Rev. W. E. L. Faulkner.. 219 MANCHESTER. FRIr AY EVENING. Secrets will come out. The name of another person is this town is currently talked about, in connexion with the disgrat•eful hoax played by some Tories upon respectable voters at the recent election. The Tories scarcely know how to bear their recent de feat, and we may mention a circumstance connected with the Licensed Victuallers' Association, which some say will end in the breaking up of that association. It is well known that the great body of licensed victuallers are highly displeased with the late Chancellor of the Exchequer for his conduct with respect to the Sale of Spirits Bill, and upon the eve of the recent election, the licensed victuallers, who arc about 600 in number, held a meeting in order that they might hear the sentiments of the different candidates with respect to the interests of the licensed victuallers. Sir George Murray addressed the meeting, stating that he would be disposed to remedy every real grievance, but he did not make any specific pledges. Mr. Walker and Mr. Cobden, on behalf of Mr. Grey, promised as much for their candi date. The Tory landlord's bad mustered in great force ; in oppositiea to the wish 6! the Chairman, Mr. James Bake, of the Ball's Head Inn, carried a resolution de claring the opinion of the meeting that Sir George Mur ray was the cindidate most deserving of the support of the trade. Mr. Bake contended that inasmuch as the pro mises on behalf of each candidate were the same, each in. dividual ought to be at liberty to support that candidate sybase opinions most nearly accorded with his own. This was overruled by the Tories. However, Mr. Bake, the president, Mr. Gray, the vice-president, and other publi cans, declined to be held bound by a resolution which in. flitted a violation of principle, and refused to vote at A. The Tory party, incensed at this, caused another meeting ti be held on Wednesday last. Twenty-seven (out of an association numbering 500 persons) only attended, and carried a resolution depriving Messrs. Bake and Gray of their respective offices of president and vice-president. The abuse with which Mr. Bake has since been assailed by some of the parties has been such, that legal proceed ings must be taken by Mr. Bake for his own vindication. LATEST FROM SOUTH AMERICA. • The Magnet packet, Lieutenant Griffith, commander, arrived at Falmouth on Thursday evening with the South American mails, having sailed from Rio Janeiro July 21, and Bahia and Pernambuco the 7th and 14th of August respectively. The news from the seat of Government kought by this vessel is of little or no moment, but prior to the packet quitting Pernambuco, a steam-boat had arrived from Maranham with information that Caxias, the next city of the province, had been entered and taken possession of by the disaffected party, who were hostile to the "law of prefect," or new police regulation, which had been lately promulgated and established. As this outbreak had been somewhat anticipated, a military force from se veral quarters was already en route and en voyage to sup press it. The malcontents were howeverestimated, it was reported, at 20,000, in which case they would cause the Royalists some trouble, beside giving a check for the time to the internal trade from the coast, Caxias being the great country mart for several of the ports. The Magnet left at Rio de Janeiro her Majesty's ship Stag, 46 guns, Commodore Suiivan, with the Grecian and Wizard sloops and Arrow ketch, the American frigate In dependence of 60 guns, Sardinian frigate Regina of 60 guns, French sloop Recline of 14 guns, and two slave prizes to tLe Grecian, betides portions of the Brazilian and Par. tuguese squadrons. The packet has on freight about 8,000/. in specie, and has also brought home, under con finement, the mate and steward (together with a Spaniard and three seamen as evidence) of the bark Secret, of Li verpool, accused of the murder of the master, Mr. A. White, on a voyage from Guayaquil to St. Ander° ; she was fallen in with by a British cruiser off the Falkland Islands, detained, and sent to Rio, whence the above have been transhipped by the British authorities to take their trial. The steward is the principal in the murder, and the mate is suspected of being an accessory. Exchange at Rio, 31- ; Brazilian Government Bills, drawn on England, at 32. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

A LAMENT FOR 111..;THER CHURCH. (BY A CLERICAL ALARMIST.) 66 Were the Clergy 'o be idle when the Ark of God 519$ in such imminent dang e r ? W ere t h e Cl ergy a l one t o be quies cent? He could not be insensiLle to their hazardous situation, when t!,e Prime Minister said he was about t;., introduce a measure which would be a sure discouragement and great hindrance to Protestantism."-.. Vide Rev. .1. Clarke , s Speech at the Collampton Conservative Festival inserted in a Morning Paper qf this Day. Old Mother Church is dying—is dead, And old Father ,I,ntichrist reigns in her stead ! The Bishops—extinct all their Protestant pluck— Are changing to Abbots as fat as a luck ; Each Vicar is shaving his scalp for a Monk, And cuts such a figure, you'd swear he was drunk Our boarding-school Misses, no doubt, for the fun's- Sake, are all mad to exhibit as Nuns ; Proud Catholic chapels vrith swaggering air, Are shocking true piety everywhere; The bells they are tolling, but tolling, alas! Not to call the poor people to Church, but to Mass; — We're ruined, in short, who so long lived in clover, For the Pope, I've heard say, has just landed at Dover, With a cargo of faggots, intended, 'Lis plain, To light up the fires of old Smithfield again ! Diabolical Dan 1 'Tis to you that we owe This ruin I prophesied ten years ago, With your (illy harangues, and your innocent face, You diddled the Commons, the King, and his Grace; Told poor Mother Church you respected her pelf, And her prayers, being human as well us herself ; That, e%ri if you wished it, you had not the skill, Or the power to ravish, or do her aught ill; Then, showed in St. Stephen's your curs't cloven feat, And started up grimly, a Devil complete I Ochonie.a-ree ! Ochonie-a-ree I Such a queer state of things I did never yet see ; We must all, to a parson —nay, e'en to a man— Succumb to the Church of the Devil and Dan! NVENING EDITION. COURT CIRCULAR.
