AUGUST 30, 1836 The triumphant reception which the Earl of MUL GRA VE has every where met with during his late pro gresses, shows the strong feeling of gratitude which the Irish entertain towards those of their rulers who have really their interests at heart. And yet this is the people whom Lord LvNpFurßsT formally pro nounced the other day in Parliament to be aliens in blood—aliens in feeling—aliens in every thing manly, generous and English ! Yes, this people whose sen sibilities are so quiet: and cordial, that the slightest de monstration of good will towards them suffices to take their hearts captive, his Lordship dared publicly to stigmatise en masse as unworthy of freedom—un worthy to share in the blessings of the English Con stitution ! How completely has Ireland given the lie to this fool-hardy denunciation ! Not only is she tranquil ; not only is she daily showing herself a thou sand times superior to the wretched bigots who have presumed to insult her; but she is showing also a readiness to forget and forgive their calumnies, provided they will at length awake to the necessity of doing her justice. The spectacle which the sister country at this moment exhibits, is indeed worthy of all admiration. It is that of a high-minded nation, galled to the quick by a sense of undeserved contumely, but, at the same time, indulging in no tumultuous out breaks, nor summoning any other energies than those which the Constitution allows her to put forth. If justice—full, ungrudging justice —b e not done her, long ere the next session is brought to a close, we shall say there is neither public nor private honour to be found in a Whig Ministry. She has claims on the prompt attention of the present Government, which it were the rankest cowardice in them to postpone, on any pretence whatever, beyond another year. She has been forbearing where she has had it in her power to assume an attitude of irresistible authority ; has been all con fidence where the extreme of distrust might have been pardonable; and in the'very depth and bitterness of dis appointment and humiliation, has still kept faith with Ministers. As gentlemen, therefore, not less than as statesmen, the 'Whig Cabinet is bound to see the sister country righted, even though in the attempt to do her justice, they should overthrow the entire fa bric of the House of Lords. We can always manage to do without Peers. They are at best but an expen sive luxury, some might say an incumbrance ; but how are the affairs of the Empire to be conducted, when its right arra (Ireland) is either palsied or lopped off ? No wonder the Tory Journals are full of shame and rage at the present aspect of that country ! They had speculated, and not without justice, on the proba bility of itsbeing so convulsed, through its entire length and breadth, as to call for some severe coercive measures from Ministers, which might have had the effect of pre cipitating their downfall ; but finding, on the contrary, that there isnothing unconstitutional, nothing menacing, to good order in the present high and resolved attitude of Ireland—that the laws are everywhere strictly obeyed—which, by the bye, they seldom or never were during the disastrous reign of Toryism—and that the administrator of those laws is, next to O'CONNELL, the most popular man in the country—finding, we say, all their fondest speculations thus falsified, the Tory jour na l s set no bounds to their rage, but vent it, now on DANIEL, now on Lord MULGRA vr, just as if such excessive party rancour did not betray a con sciousness, rather of weakness than of strength. Mean. while, let these party scribes rave as they may, Ire land's triumph is certain, if she will but persevere in the course which she has so wisely adopted. Not all the LYNDHURSTS in the world, were they to spring up as thick as mushrooms in the Lords, can prevent her ob taining, next Session, a full and perfect triumph, pro vided, in the interim, she keeps rigidly within the pale of the law. We learn from the Scotch papers that the excellent representative for Greenock, Mr. ROBERT WAL LACE, true to his principles and his pledges, has ap pointed the 3d of October next for his annual resigna tion of a Parliamentary trust, only resumable in the event of the electors being fully satisfied with his Par- „ DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

IConsols for Acconnt On the 22d the Constitution of 1812 was pro claimed with the usual ceremonies at Pamplona, by the express command of the QUEEN-REGENT. General SAARSFIELD was in the city at the time, but took no part in the proceeding, alleging that the delicate state of his health did not permit him to go abroad. This excuse was not well received by the populace, who, however, conducted themselves with great decorum. Were the QUEEN'S Government to seize the pre. sent favourable moment to act with energy against the Carlists, we are morally certain that the PRETENDER would be forced to evacuate Spain before the close of the present campaign. The enthusiasm of the people only requires to be promptly and properly directed against the real enemies of liberty and the nation. The QUEEN herself has behaved with praiseworthy firmness throughout. The only thing for which she can be reproached is her misplaced confidence in her late Bobadil Commander-in-Chief, CORDOVA. " The sinews of war, money, is wanted, to carry on opera tions." This is the universal cry with every Minister but why is it wanted ? Is Spain so poor that she cannot support a deliverance force of 100,000 men for some three or four months ? No, no : there is wealth enough in the country if Ministers but knew how to avail themselves of it. A good financier, and a strong Government, would soon fill the coffers of the Trea sury, without pressing with undue severity on the peo ple. Hitherto the Spanish Government has gone a very round-about way to obtain money. It has grasped at what was all but valueless when obtained, and it has overlooked the acquisition of the real wealth hourly placed within its view. With a short-sighted policy, it seizes the Church lands, and suffers the rich moveables of the Church to slip unheeded through its fingers. The French Journa l s c : con o f S unday, the whole of which we have received, con tinue to speculate upon the causes of the dissolution of the late Cabinet. The Constitu tionnel denies that M. TiiiErts insisted upon direct intervention in Spain ; all he sought for was a more efficient system of co-operation, the d . 'in irect system hitherto adopted having had no other effect than that of causing some temporary inconvenience to Don CARLOS. The arguments by which he was opposed in the Council were, that a more direct intervention would expose France to the danger of a disgraceful defeat, which she could only resent by openly declaring herself th e enemy of Don CARLOS. The same Journal asserts that the question of intervention was not so much as mooted in the Council, and that the sending of ever so stron g an auxiliary force into Spain would amount to an act of intervention. The Journal des Debuts main tains, on the contrary, that the question of intervention was discussed, and that M. TRIERS sent in his resigna- liamentary conduct. The constituency of Greenock may well be proud of being represented by a gen tleman who, throughout his Parliamentary career, has reflected the highest credit upon the ho nesty and political discrimination of the electoral body. In their choice of Mr. WALLACE the elec tors of Greenock have evinced the strongest attach ment to liberal principles, the most ardent desire for improved institutions, and an entire sympathy with their suffering fellow-subjects in Ireland. It is an easy matter to prognosticate the result of Mr. WALLACE'S appeal to his constituents. They will receive him, as they ought, with acclamations ; and they will replace in his hands with applauding shouts the trust which he thus voluntarily places at their disposal. Were it otherwise, Mr. WALLACE would find more than one constituency in England, and Scotland, most happy to name him their Representative in Parliament. His important services towards an effectual Reform of the Post-office, and the Scotch Law Courts, are as highly prized by the people of the South as they are by the inhabitants of North Britain. We thank Mr. WALLACE, in the name of the Re formers, for setting an example to the other liberal Representatives, which we trust, in a short time, to see generally followed. That " short reckonings make long friends," is not less true of political re presentation, than of mercantile transactions ; and the country will never be faithfully represented till some such system is universally established. The working of the system is objected to by those who are in no mood to try the effect of its operation, as incon venient. But where is its inconvenience in the case of Mr. WALLACE ? He has done his duty ; his con stituents see that he has, and his re-election will there fore be but the work of a moment. They only fear the people who have betrayed them. General IninA RISEN obtained a signal victory over he Carlists on the 19th inst. on the heights of Lo dosa, near the Ebro. The celebrated Chief ITURALDE commanded the rebels ; the force under him consisting. of the 4th battalion of Navarrese Infantry, four com panies of the Ist battalion, two squadrons of horse, and a large reserved corps. He had taken up a posi tion near Carcar, with a view to cover BASILIO GARCIA and his hand's passage across the Ebro, near the Novillas. IRIBARREN having learned on the 18th that GARCIA was resolved to cross the river, marched from Peralta to Capanossa for the purpose of intercepting him, and accordingly fell in with the Carlists under ITURA LDE who had taken possession of the heights of Lodosa, which gave them a great ad vantage over the Christinos. The Carlist chief of fered the enemy battle, which was as cheerfully ac cepted by the QUEEN'S troops. The engagement was o)stinate and bloody ; and after fighting for nearly four hours, the Carlists began to give way, and shortly after fled with precipitation. Nine hundred of the rebels, including General ORTIGOSA, Comman dant of the cavalry, and thirty-seven officers, were made prisoners by the QUEEN'S forces, besides an im mense quantity of arms, military stores, &c. The vic torious General in his despatch does the greatest jus tice to the courage of his men, and the coolness dis played by the several commanding officers. The Lancers and mounted Cliasseurs did good service during the engagement. Their Colonels, Don DIEGO LEON and Don MIGUEL BENvENGA s, are honourably mentioned in the despatch addressed by the General to the Commander-in-Chief. According to the Car list authorities their less in prisoners does not exceed five hundred men, including officers. We have no correct intelligence respecting the num ber of killed and wounded in this engagement. The Carlists state that General IrtrnAßßEN's force consisted of one thousand five hundred infantry, seven hundred cavalry, and four pieces of artillery ; and that their loss in killed was twenty-five, and in wounded sixty. They further charge ITURALDE with treachery. His trial by a Court-Martial, called together by VILLEAI UR and MoDET, Ministers of the Pretender, took place on the 20th, but the result will not be known be fore the arrival of the next acounts from Bayonne. There is also a report in the Carlist correspon dence of a Morning Contemporary of an encounter having taken place on the 20th at Mallen, within four leagues of Saragossa, between GARCIA'S band, con sisting of five thousand infantry and three thousand cavalry, and the National Guard of that city. This seems impossible ; but whether true or false, the re sult was unimportant, as each party retired claiming a victory. In the course of the engagement it does not appear that there was so much as an individual killed, wounded, or missing, on either side. The Spaniards are famous for victories obtained after this bloodless fashion. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1536 tion in consequence of its rejection. The Courrier F ran cats, in reference to the statement put forth by the Constztutionnel, which it attributes to the ex-President of the Council himself, pointedly observes Were we to beli eve hi m, he never wished nor asked for inter vention, but only proposed an active and efficacious co - operation. If that were the case, why did he not attempt it in April last, when it would have been so much easier, when England in concert with General ALAVA solicited it, when the Anglo-auxiliary army had not been defeated at Fontarabia, when COR DOVA'S troops were not in such a state of demoraliza tion, and when the Constitution of 1812 had neither been proclaimed at Malaga, Cadiz, St. Ildefonso, or Madrid ? It is only since the late revolutionary spirit has shown itself in several towns of Andalusia, to be propa gated all over the Peninsula, that M. Limas has taken it into his head to fly to the assistance of theßoyal sta tute. M. THIERS is now neglecting no means to de ceive the public opinion upon this point. The various readings of the papers do not suffice ; he must obtain the assent of the President of the Chamber, in the ab sence of the Chamber itself. To this purpose, in con cert with M. SAUZET, he has addressed a letter to M. DUPIN, representing things in a particular point of view, for the purpose of transforming the question of intervention, which was the cause of his fall, into a Constitutional question, having no relation to interven tion. 'We shall doubtless know what M. DUPIN will say to this." There is nothing else of any importance in the Journals of Sunday, with the exception of the following extracts : PARIS, Atha. 28 (10 P.

Duchatel the invita tion to leave immediately La Charente Inferieure, where he presides over the General Council, and to come to receive the orders of the King.—National, Aug. 28—Second Edition.

PARIS, Arc. 28.--A letter from Algiers of August 19, says, " The approaching arrival of Marshal Clausel is officially announced. The Government has stated that before the end of the year the whole of the ex-Regency of Algiers is to be brought under the power of France, and that consequently extensive military operations would be undertaken in the pro vinces of Oran, Algiers, and Constantina. " As a prelude to these operations, as far as the province of Algiers is concerned, it has been resolved to form a camp on the Chill's, at the entrance of the country of the Hadjouts. For this purpose General Brossard left Boaffariek on the ltith of this month, at the head of 2,000 men, of all arms, in order to form the camp. He was to place block-houses by the way on the line of his communication, so that he would not Le able to reach the Cliffs before yesterday evening at the most. " It is to be presumed that the presence of our troops on the banks of the Cliffs, by giving the Hadjouts employment at hand, will binder them from ravaging our territory as they have constantly done since the month of January, 1833. "Iu the province of Oran, there is no indication of the great military operations which are preparing, but in that of Con stantina a new camp is going to be formed in advance of that of Draan. the works of which have lately been suspended, by order of the Minister sent by telegraph. We see that war, ruinous war, is contemplated. Nevertheless, our means of acting are but little augmented." Le Mare says, it is affirmed that M. Mendizabal is entrus ted by the new Government of Spain with a financial mission to London. The object of this mission is to raise money on any terms.—Journal du Contmerce, Aug. 28, Second Edition. PARIS, AUG. 27. The Ministers, whether they have re signed or not, are expecting to have successors appointed, in consequence of the retirement of M. Thiers. Nevertheless. in their hotels for the dispatch of business, M. Thiers himself had yesterday afternoon pretty long conferences at the hotel of Foreign Affairs, successively with the Duke de Frias, formerly Spanish Ambassador, with the Portuguese Ambassador, and Count d'Appony, the Austrian Ambassador. —Journal d, Commerce„ , lug. 28, Second Edition. Saturday morning, a young woman, named Eliza bethllen, fell from a height of 40 feet on the pavement in Golden-square, while cleaning a window. She was removed to Middlesex Hospital in a dreadful state, no hope being enter tained of her recovery. The Landgrave Charles of I - Jesse Cassell died sud denly on the evening of the 17th inst., at the Castle of Louis enband, in Denmark. lie was the oldest Prince in Europe, father-in-law of the King of Denmark, a Field Marshal, and Governor of the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein. He was in the 92d year of his age, being born on Dec. 19, 1744. In 1766 he married the Princess Louisa of Denmark, daughter of Frederick V., and, in 1826, celebrated with that Princess a matrimonial jubilee of 60 years. The two political parties in Winchester are display ing their usual activity, preparatory to the sitting of the Courts of the Revising Barristers. Numerous notices of objection have been served to voters in the city, both borough and county. From the circumstance of the latter having been served by a former agent of Sir W.

The electors for this Borough intend, as a tribute of unabated respect and confidence, to give a public dinner to their worthy representatives, Sir George Grey and Sir Ed ward Codrington, on their arrival in the borough. It is time to show that there has been no re-action in this part of the West of England, at all events, however South Devon may have disgraced itself, and done discredit to the Western Re formers. —Devonport Independent. As Mr. Wayte, of Burton-upon-Trent, was,return ing home on Monday evening he shot a swallow, which fell into the river Trent, and was seized by a large pike as soon as it reached the surface of the water. The bird rose again, but Jack was not to be baulked of his prey; he followed it to the surface, and succeeded in carrying it to his dining-room "un der the waters cold," to the great amusement and wonder of the bystanders.—Derby Express. Extract of a letter from Rome, dated the 16th inst. —ln regard to the cholera, the reports from Lombardy are more and more favourable; so that it is to be hoped that ere long some of the cordons will be taken off. Meantime, the road by steamer from Marseilles to Civita Vecchia, and thence to Rome, is free of all impediments, and likely to con tinue so. On Saturday six woodcocks were flushed in the . outskirts of the wood of Knockour, adjoining Baturrich Castle. Three of them rose together, the others separately, but at no great distance. There is every reason for believing that these birds were hatched in the above wood.—Scots Times. On Monday afternoon, as Mr. Peacock, carrier, was on his way home from Stockton to Stokesley, riding on a pony, by the side of the waggon, when opposite the Blue Bell public-house, about 14 miles from Stockton, he fell off, and the waggon passed over and broke both his legs. He was taken up in a very exhausted state, but we are happy to say he is not considered in danger.—Stockton Observer. FIRE DAmP.—One of - the most distressing occur rences of this nature which has lately occurred took place on Saturday week at the Bull pit, near Wakefield. There were at the time of the explosion sixteen men and eight boys in the pit; six of the boys were severely burnt by the ignition, and three of them so much injured that one died from suffocation immediately, and the other two died the following day. Three other men were slightly injured by the fire, making in the whole eleven who suffered more or less injury in the space of a few seconds. To render the case more distressing, David Brooke, the father of one of the boys upon whom the inquest was held on Monday, was so much hurt a few days before the present accident took place, in consequence of a stone falling upon his head, that he was confined to his bed when his boys were brought home on Saturday ; and they were so severely burnt that scarcely a single portion of skin was left upon them. Chesterfield Advertiser. Yesterday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, the greatest alarm was excited in Oxford-street, in conse quence of a cab being observed to progress along at a most fearful rate, towards Holborn, while the driver, evidently in a state of intoxication, was, with all the strength he was pos sessed of, lashing his horse, which kept crossing and recros sing the road to the imminent danger of foot and other pas sengers. The animal, which appeared to be a very high spi rited one, on arriving at Bond -street suddenly turned the corner, and in doing so knocked down an elderly lady named Wynvard, residing in King-street, Holborn, and who sus tained very severe injury on the temple. She was immedi ately removed in a state of insensibility to an adjacent house, where a surgeon promptly attended, and rendered every as sistance in his power. By this time a great many persons who bad witnessed the driver's reckless conduct followed the vehicle, and called to the fellow to stop; but, instead of doing so, he whipped his horse with increased violence, and on tarn ing into Piccadilly upset a child's four-wheeled carriage, breaking it all to pieces, and throwing out two fine boys under eight years of age, the sons of Mr. Marti neau , a gent l eman residing in Pall mall, one of whom was severely bruised, but the other fortunately escaped unhurt. The drunken driver, who narrowly avoided running against other vehicles, at a rapid rate, drove down St. James's-street, and contrived to get clear off. The "Royal Bruce," Manchester and London coach, was overturned on Friday last near Buxton, in consequence of one of the leaders taking fright and becoming unmanageable. The passengers, we are happy to state, escaped without receiv ing any material injury. No blame attaches to the coachman. —North Derbyshire Chronicle. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)

A fact interesting to the antiquary has been elicited on taking out the wooden keys which closed a fissure in the base of the obelisk, to replace them with two other keys of copper. They were completely corroded by the action of the air and mosture, and there is every reason to believe that they were inserted when the obelisk was first put up at Thebes, and shows that, 4,000 years ago, the Egyptians were acquainted with the powerful means of uniting two pieces of wood, now used, and called dove-tailing.—Galignani.

NEWS FOR GOURMANDS.—A cargo of a novel description has just arrived at the London Docks—viz., a ship load of turtle, which is selling on such moderate terms that the humblest menage can avail themselves of it. It is not generally known that turtle dressed as a hash, or simply as cutlets, is a great delicacy. The same vessel has also on board a live crocodile, of a hitherto undescribed species. During one of the early persecutions of the Jews in Poland, a decree passed the Diet prohibiting them from mar rying under 30 years of age. No sooner was the intention intimated than the Jews made a point of having all their chil— dren, even infants at the breast, married immediately, alleging as their excuse, that many of the crowned heads of Europe did the same. EMIGRATION.—On Sunday the American line-of packet-ship President, Captain Chadwick, sailed from the St. Katharine's Docks for New York, with a great number of emi. grants, consisting of farm-servants, agricultural labourers, me chanics, tradesmen of small capital, and others, with a consi derable number of women and . children, who intend settling in the United States and Canada. The President, on leaving the Docks, was taken in tow by a steam-vessel, and immediately proceeded down the river. A number of persons connected with the adventurers witnessed their departure. Two persons employed at the telegraph at Tours were lately arrested. It is supposed that they are implicated in some stock-jobbing affair, for which several of the clerks of the Bourdeaux telegraph were arrested some days ago.—Bou logne Journal. The Colchester Board of Guardians have received a communication from the Poor-law Commissioners, stating that they are not to allow the assistant overseers to grant orders or otherwise to interfere with respect to the relief of the poor, and that the assistant overseer must not be paid out of the poor-rates. The Commissioners disapprove of the ap pointment of any assistant overseer in future. RETURN OF CAPTAIN ROSS.—(Further Parti culars.) In addition to a statement as to the lamentable re sult of the fishing up to the time of the Cove leaving the ice, we are enabled to furnish extracts from letters forwarded by Captain Ross to the owners of the three whale ships from this port, all of which agree in one m a t er i a l point--viz., the impracticability of the ships getting northward beyond lat 71. The circumstance of the Governor of Upper Annewick transporting a sledge over t h e i ce a distance of two or three hundred miles, as mentioned by Captain Leask, shows that the ice, at least near t h e east land, is a compact body. The main dependence of the whalers will, therefore, be upon the fishing grou n d to t h e south and south-west, unless i an opening s found t o B a ffi n ' s B ay to the westward, and this is not at all improbable, for th e cont i nued, strong westerly winds early in the spring would have the effect of packing the ice near the east land, and leaving an opening near the west. If an opening to the north be found in that quarter, or a fa vourable change took place in the position of the ice, there is plenty of time after the 19th of June to make good fishing, and it may reasonably be hoped all will yet be well. We un derstand that the whalers generally were not in a better con dition, up to the same dat e , i n t h e years 1829, 1832, and 1833. What could have induced Captain Ross to return in the middle of the summer, without having accomplished the object of his voyage, we are at a los s to conce i ve. It is true the Cove was chartered for six months only, and that after that period there would be an addition a l expense; but what is that compared with the saving of the men's lives, since it is possible, nay probable, that some of th em may yet surv i ve. If t h e Govern ment gave Captain Ross no discretionary power, why then he is not to blame ; but what precious blundering there must have been at the Admiralty, if Captain Ross's instructions were to look out for the lost ship for a certain time, and if he did not find her within that given period, to return home. So far a s we can see at present, there was no necessity or motive, save what might arise from the paltry pecuniary consideration, for Captain Ross to leave the fishing ground so early in the sea son.—Newcastle Journal. On Saturday night a horse was stolen from Mr. Hargreaves, of Milton ; on the following morning the animal was traced to Sunderland, a short distance from Lancaster, where the thief was taken into custody. On Monday morning he was taken before the Magistrate, committed to Lancaster Castle, tried at the assizes the same day, and sentenced to transportation for life. On his person was found 15/., a dis guise for his face, and a skeleton koy. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. This morning, between 2 and 3 o'clock, the premises of Mr. Wilson, tea-dealer, at the foot of London Bridge, were disco vered to be on fire. Mr. Wilson, who slept i n t h e secon d floor, finding all egress impeded by the fire, which was then rapidly ascending, was in conse quence compelled to precipi tate himself out of the window, the effect of which was that he had one arm broken, and a leg broken in two places. He was taken to St. Thomas's Hospital. A report was in circu lation that the housekeeper of that unfortunate gentleman had fallen a prey to the devouring element. In a few minutes after the flames were seen several engines were on the spot, but they had no power over the fire, which consumed the building of Mr. Wilson, and communicated to the house next door, in the occupation of Messrs. Edward Wigan and Co., hop-factors, which also was entirely destroyed, together with the premises of J. Goodchild, jun., and Co., glass-cutters, which was in continuation. The loss of property on this side of the street was severe; we are sorry to state that it was trifling with what followed, in consequence of the extension of the fire to Fen ning's wharf, whose premises faced Mr. Wigan's, and which it is well-known extend to the water-side, an immense stock of goods being here deposited from different parts of the world for home consumption. The firemen did their utmost to prevent the progress of the flames, the heat arising from which was so intense as to be felt at a considerable distance. But notwithstanding their utmost exertions, the flames were car ried across the street and ignited the warehouse rooms through the window in which was property of a very combustible na ture. The greatest fears were speedily excited, and we are sorry to say, too truly realized. No power of water had any effect, and the rapidity with which the fire advanced was awful. In a short time they had reached the north side of the large building, penetrating through the casement with great vio lence, and descending towards the goods on the wharf, off which were several vessels laying, which were laden with valuable cargoes ; but it fortunately being flood tide, they were taken off. An immense number of engines were at this time playing upon the burning materials, the floating engine assisting in its operation, but without much effect, and the whole pile, with the extensive and valuable stock, was ultimately destroyed. The engines eventually played upon the houses in the vicinity. The whole ruins present, at the present moment, the most melancholy appearance, occasionally portions of the massive walls falling. There is no immediate calculation of the loss of property, though it must be immense; and it is feared that the merchants from whom the articles are consigned to Fenning's Wharf will be considerable losers. We have not beard of any lives being lost, except the housekeeper. A person named Fenn was in jured by a wall falling. Besides the above-named persons, whose premises were injured, Messrs. Edgington, marquee manufacturers; Mr. Gardnet ; and Messrs. Hcnly, Hewitt, and Co., cheesemongers, have had property destroyed. Mr. Wil son's public-house, at the corner, escaped with but slight damage. Great credit is due to both the City and Metropoli tan police. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Unfortunately for full half an hour, no water, according to Mr. Braidwood's statement, could be obtained from the mains of the Southwark Company, which alone supplies that dis trict, and for two hours afterwards the supply was so deficient that scarcely more than half the engines could be brought into full play. Had the supply been abundant at the first, Mr. Braidwood considers he could have prevented the fire extend ing beyond the premises of Messrs. Wilson and Co., in which it commenced. At last, it was the efficient service rendered by the floating engine, which as the tide came in was able to advance nearer upon the burning masses, and to pour forth immense streams of water thereon, which contributed mainly to check the further progress of the flames. The greatest exertions were made in every direction by the firemen under the directions of Mr. Braidwood, and valuable co-opera tion was obtained from the bodies of police assembled around. Many of the warehouses which caught fire had no residents, and it was necessary to break them open, which as the fasten ings were of strength proportioned to the value of the property within, and the risk to which it was exposed, caused a loss of much valuable time. For full three hours the fire continued to blaze most fiercely, casting a portentous glare of mingled flames and smoke over the whole of the metropolis. In parti cular, only two wharfs distant from Fenning's Wharf, were known to be large warehouses stored with saltpetre, turpen tine, and other fierce combustibles. Fortunately the flames did not reach these, or the destruction might have been most awful. By six o'clock in the morning the falling in of the inner walls and roofs of many of the buildings, and the exhaustion of the combustible materials, greatly aided the, firemen in putting an end to the danger, which within half an hour after may be said to have ceased, although' the ruins still continue to burn fiercely, and are likely to do so for some hours, notwithstanding that several of the engines continue playing upon them. A request was sent at nine o'clock this morning, by Mr. Braidwood, for the use of Mr. Braithwaite's powerful steam fire engine to cool the ruins with, but it seems it is out of repair. Shortly after the alarm for the surrounding property had ceased, Mr. Braidwood directed the inquiries of his engineers and firemen, to ascertain, as well as amid the confusion could be done, the names of the several sufferers, and the particulars of their different damages. The following is the result of the latest inquiries thus made : In Duke -street, Southwark, which is the new street, that by a circular sweep leads on an inclined plane from the bridge 'etc', the middle of Tooley-street, the damages are as under-- Messrs. Wilson, and Co., tea-dealers, premises wholly burnt down, not known whether insured or not. Mr. Wallis, the publican licensed under the New Beer Act, whose case has made some noise, has his premises greatly da maged, particularly by water. Is insured in the Licensed Victuallers' Society. Messrs. Grant and Co., cheese-factors.—Back warehouse burnt down. Insured for stock in the Alliance; building in the Globe. Mr. Edgington, sail-maker.—The roof damaged by fire, and the stock, &c., by water and by removal; insured in Sun, Hand in Hand, and Protector. Mr. Burford, paper-hanger.—Much damage to the back of the building and to the furniture; insurance not known. Mr. Wigan, hop-merchant.—The warehouse burnt down ; insured stock in the Protector and Guardian. Mr. Pocock, shoe-maker.—Building damaged behind ; in sured in the Imperial. Mr. Whiting, solicitor.—A similar damage; insured in Guardian. Mr. J. C. Rush, cheesefactor.—Warehouse burnt down ; insured in Royal Exchange. Mr. Franklin.—Private residence; not insured; a slight damage. IN - Tooley-street.-111r. George King, No. 6, lead-mer• chant.—Warehouse burnt down ; insured in Phoenix. Mr. S. G. Bennett, No. 250, stack-cloth-maker.—Slight damage ; not insured. Mr: Williams, woolstapler.—Burnt down ; insured building in Hand in Hand, stock in Imperial. Mr. Goodchild, jun., glass-cutter.—Building severely scorched ; insured in Sun for stock. Mr. Cliff, cheesefactor.—Slight damage ; insurance un known. Fenning and Co., the great wharfingers.—A total destruc tion ; insured, but particulars not known. Messrs. Evans & Co., hop-merchants, Mr. Goodchild, sen., and Meesrs. J. H. Scovill & Co., wharfiugers, have the fronts of their respective buildings much scorched. THE LATE BALLOON ASCENT MRS. GRAHAM.--We are happy to say that the state of this unfortunate lady still continues improving. During Saturday the improvement, although trifling, was very per ceptible, and on Sunday it was still more apparent. During that day Mrs. Graham made several inquiries as to when and where the accident occurred, and whether the Duke of Brunswick bad sustained any injury. She has no personal recollection of the accident, and when her mind wanders, which is still very frequent, she imagines herself on her aerial voyage, giving frequent directions as to the management of the balloon. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Graham departed with the bal loon for Cheltenham, to make preparations for his intended ascent from that city to-morrow. Shortly after his departure the following letter was received at his resi dence in Poland-street, from Doddinghurst, which was im mediately dispatched after him by Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Graham's sister : " Converse Farm, Monday Morning, Ten o'Clock. " Dear Sir—l am happy to inform you that Mrs. Graham still continues improving, and I have strong hopes, should no unfavourable change take place (which I do not antici pate) she will be sufficiently recovered to be removed from hence to town by the commencement of the next week.— In haste, yours sincerely, " H. POTTER, Surgeon, On,gar, Essex. " Mr. Graham, Poland-street.' The balloon and tackling, we are sorry to say, sustained great injury from the inexperience of the persons by whom it was found. The silk was cut in innumerable places round the valve, as well as in numerous other parts, and the net ting was in many places cut into shreds. It is denied that the Directors of the Bank of England had in contemplation an additional advance in the rate of interest. Yesterday morning, about half -past ten o'clock, a stack of clover, belonging to Lord Templemore, was discovered to be o n fi re , b etween Ch even i ng, the seat of ' Earl Stanhope, and the romantic village of Sundridge. The stack, which was worth 150/., was, we understand, insured. Owing to the want of water nothing could be done to stop the progress of the destructive element. It is not known how the fire originated. THE TEA TRAD E. — Yesterday the private trade tea sales, which have been advertised for some time, com menced. In consequence, however, of the large amount of teas to be put up for public competition within the ensuing month, the business transacted was extremely small. About fifty thousand packages are to be offered. After this quantity is disposed of, the East India Company's declaration of 4,000,0001b5. will follow, and, subsequently, private trade teas will again be offered to a larger amount than those which commenced yesterday. To relieve the trade as much as pos sible, the East India Company have postponed the prompt upon the last quarterly sales until the 2d of September, th e day after the Company's September sale of teas commence. An Order in Council has been issued, permitting Boheas, shipped from Canton previously to the Ist of March last, to be admitted at the low duty. Last week the clearances of tea amounted to above 350,0001b5. POLICE INTELLIGEN CE. (THIS DAY.) MANSION -HOUSE. MY WIFE'S MOTHER.--A poor miserable-looking woman was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman THOMAS WOOD, charged with an assault. The complainant, James Castle, who is a watchman living in Sun street, Bishopagate, said that the defendant was con; stantly in the habit of going to his house, and " blowing U. Last night, said the complainant, she was so violent— The ALDERMAN —Who was ? Complainant—My vife's mother, Sir.—(A laugh) —and I was obliged to call in two watchmen, when I was hit sich a precious blow on the arm with a great iron bar (exhibiting a large bruise on hi e fore- arm). The ALDERMAN ---Who hit you ? Complainant—My wife's mother, Sir.—( Laughter). The ALDERMAN__ Well my good woman, what have you to say? Defendant—Why, Sir, I went to his house with my di ll ' dren, and after they was gone, he struck me. I called in 1 1 person to prevent destruction. Howsomever, I went to bed when he called in a lot of rufiqns what was no constables, I an sure at all, for they dragged me out of my bed when I was al most in a state of nuddity, for I had nothing on but my shimmey. He's used me rascally. My husband was a con stable, and I know what duty is, but they didnt do their duty. His children cried out for their grandmother, and his wi fe cried out for her mother, but they took me to the Compter, between one and two, where I've been all night, and I'm 62 years of age, your Wo rs hip. The complainant denied this, or that he had at all ill used his vife's mother, and stated that she created so great a dis turbance that he was obliged to remove her. The ALDERMAN—WiII you offend again ? Defendant—Na t in this way. The ALDERMAN —Will you in any other way? Defendant Whatever you request me I will do. The ALDERMAN—WeII, I shall discharge you u p on your promising to keep the peace, but if you come here again you will be dealt with rather severely. The old woman was then discharged. TOWN-HALL. ORDER OF AFFILIATION.-Mr. Alderman FAREHROTHEN and Mr. Alderman WINCHESTER sat here this morning at ten o'clock, in order to decide an application on behalf of a rung female for an order of affiliation against a young m an whom she swore was the father of an illegitimate child which WO born only one month before the Poor Law Act came into operation. The worthy Aldermen, after attentively considering the case, ordered the defendant to pay 4s. a-week for the main tenance of the child. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. Arthur Bellamey, a short-set burley little man, whose face was disfigured with various mug and bruises, ,vas charged with being extremely drunk and disorderly. MAGISTRATE—What, have you been in the wars ?

MAGISTRATE —I'm afraid it is the liquor that trips you up. Defendant —Not at all, Sir. Didn't I show you the last time I was h ere that I could drink a bottle of whiskey and stand upon one leg ?—(Laughter.) MAGISTRATE—I s h e not a quack doctor, or something of that sort ? Defendant (pulling out a paper)—lf you wouldonly take one o f these balls at night in a pint of rum, Y° ll would never have the rheumatism.—(Much laughter.) MAGISTRATE —We don't want any of your prescriptiono here. You are also charged with assaulting the officer. Defendant --That's anoth er mistake. I h a d five and twenty suits of clothes, and eight great coats, since the King's Coro nation, and I make it a rule never to strike a policeman, 131 4 they always keep clear of my hands, for they know I can !mar their coats to pieces. Your Worship, they have a desperate knack of tripping me up. MAGISTRATE—.YOU must pay five shillings for being cly unk' Defendant—Why, you might kick me from Dan to Bel' sheba, and not get a farthing out of me.—(Much laugh ter.)

From the evidence of the witnesses, it appeared that the prisoner, about six o'clock yesterday evening, went to a house in Darkhouse-lane, Newgate-market, kept by a man of the name of Chater, and called for a glass of rum, the price of which, two pence, after he had drank, he refused to pay. Some words ensued between the waiter and the prisoner, when the prisoner gave the waiter a heavy blow under the ear with big fist. The waiter died at a quarter before 12 last night, and the medical gentleman who attended him had given it as big opinion that the blow the deceased had received from the prisoner was the main cause of his death. The prisoner was remanded until the result of the Coroner's Inquest should be known, which is to be held to-morrow. UNION-HALL. Thomas Henry Manning, a person who appeared to hare led a wanderin g life, was brou g ht b e f ore M r. TRAILL, charge with having robbed Mr. Gunton, a coal-merchant, and Ml' Jones, a cl o th-f actor, both of Coal Harbour-lane, Camberwell, of several carpenter's tools, china, and other articles. Thomas White, P 116, stated that he saw the prisoner, At half past five o'clock this morning, in a field near Coal Har bour-lane. As there was no road through it, he thought je suspicious seeing the prisoner there ; and upon his attempting to go towards him, he jumped into a ditch. The officer imme diately took him into custody, finding upon him two baskets containing property, which was identified by Mr. Gunton and Mr. Jones as their property. Mr. Yarnton stated that upon his door had been written in a good hand—" lam a poor fellow, and I must have money' some way or other." On charging the prisoner with writing: this, he admitted that he done so, and that he had taken the) goods in order to keep him from starving. Mr. TRAILL—WeII, prisoner, what account have you to p;ire of yourself; you know you have been here before ?—The pri soner stoutly denied this • but upon being closely questioned, he admitted that he had led a wandering life ; that at onetime he lived at Hereford, another in Smithfield, another in some distant part of the country, then at Camberwell ; and now, that lie had no pl ace i nto w hi ch he could put his head. , The prisoner, who on being searched had a large , qua ntity of apples in his pocket, was fully committed.
