CROMER, MONDAY, MIDNIGIEL — The royal squa dron passed Cromer coast-guard station precisely at forty five minutes past twelve. Her Majesty's yacht was well guarded to prevent accident from collision; the weather fine, the atmosphere rather hazy, with a light wind from the north, and her course was N.N.W. for the Dudgeon Light (twenty-eight miles distant), and outside of the Hasborough Sands. At daybreak, on Tuesday morning, the royal yacht was abreast of the new Sand Light, near the entrance of the Humber ; and at precisely nine o'clock the royal cortege passed Flamborough-head, the extreme east point of the coast of Yorkshire. A letter states that her Majesty's yacht passed within a mile and a half of the land, two steamers following close in the rear. The weather was very hazy at the time, and very few persons assembled to witness the sight, as the squadron was not expected to pass until two or three hours after. There was a fine breeze blowing from the westward, but none of the steamers availed themselves of it by setting canvas. At Scarborough considerable preparations had been made to welcome her Majesty, and a number of vessels had left the harbour at an early hour to meet the royal yacht. At ten o'clock the squadron was ahead of the Castle, within two miles of the land, headed by her Majesty's yacht, when a royal salute was fired from the fort. After leaving Scarborough, the royal yacht con tinued the north- west track close in along the coast, passing before twelve o'clock the Great Yorkshire Cliff, Rohinhood Bay, and Whitby, where similar demonstrations of loyalty were exhibited. The squadron bore away in the direction of Sunderland. TYNEMOUTI_,I NEAR NORTH SHIELDS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FIVE o'CLocK.—(Extract of a letter.) —lt being well known at Newcastle that her Ma jesty and the royal squadron would be off Tynetnouth Bar in the course of this afternoon, caused thousands of persons to come down the North Shields Railway, and by noon the entire. beech, fortress, cliffs, and ruins of the venerable abbey, were crowded with spectators. The day was truly beautiful—a brilliant sun, with a gentle westerly wind, and the sea, as smooth even as the Thames at London-bridge, covered with a large number of boats, and several steamers, crowded with people who had gone out to greet her Majesty and her illustrious husband. At about half-past two o'clock two steamers were seen beating up the inner channel, and on their nearing the most intense interest was manifested, as they proved to be the royal yacht, and the standard of England flying at the mainmast, and another large Government steamer. The latter was apparently picking out the track, and the steam yacht was following about a mile astern. A company of the 26th Regiment, under the command of Colonel Moltram, stationed at Tynemouth garrison, were drawn out on the esplanade, and presented arms as the Royal yacht passed, but, to the astonishment of all, no salute was fired from the fortress. The fisher men of South Shields did exhibit all the loyalty they cot 14 . muster, ; and fif,ed .severat gun s from th eie, crafts, :at the same time lowering the -C'clotirs ?they' had hoisted. The Tyne steamer went close alongside of the royal yacht (which was abreast of Tynemouth Bar precisely at half-past three), and loudly cheered the Royal party. To the great disappointment of the visitors neither her Majesty nor Prince Albert were on deck, nor could they be observed through the cabin windows. Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, how ever, acknowledged their loyalty on the part of her Majesty. The two steamers came close in shore within about a mile, and it was a most beautiful sight. They were apparently passing through the water at the rate of twelve miles an hour ; and the general opinion amongst the pilots was, on account of the fineness of the weather, the steamers would go inside the Fern Islands, and reach Bamborough at about nine o'clock at night. The passage from London to Tynemouth effected by the Royal yacht •is the quickest on record; the distance, 320 miles, was ac• complished in about twenty-nine hours. DREADFUL OCCURRENCE.—Yesterday afternoon, the following shocking occurrence took place in the New-cut, Blackfriars-road, by which a fine little boy, named Thomas Smith, three years of age, lost his life under distressing circumstances. It appears that about a quarter to six o'clock in the afternoon, the father of the deceased, who is a carmaq in the employ of Mr. Burgess, a cow keeper in the Corn wall-road, was driving his own cart, which was heavily laden, homeward. The father of the de ceased had, a few moments previous, had twopence given to him for the purpose of procuring a pint of porter, he accordingly stopped for a minute at the door of a public house, from whence he had half a pint of beer, he drank a portion, and leaving the child to finish the remainder, proceeded onwards. The boy, when in the New-cut, ran after, and had just overtaken his parent, when he either accidentally fell or was knocked down beneath the wheels of the cart his father was driving. He stopped the horse as quick as possible, when it was found that one of the wheels was resting upon the unfortunate child's neck. The horse they at tempted to back, but the animal refused, and they were compelled to urge him onwards, before the deceased could be picked up. He was conveyed to the surgery of Mr. Marshall, who, on examination, fo - and that life was quite extinct. That gentleman said death must have been instantaneous. The father, who was in an almost frantic state, bears a most excellent character for steadi ness and sobriety. A CURE FOR THE DISTEMPER IN CATTLE, BY THE EARL OF ESSEX.—I cannot resist giving a receipt for the treatment of beasts that may take the prevalent dis temper. It showed itself last winter in one of my yard stock, by its discharging abundant saliva from the mouth, with sore and inflamed tongue and gums, very dull, no appetite, confined bowels, and very hot horns. I desired die bailiff to give him one half-pint of the spirit of turpentine, with one pint linseed oil, repeating the oil in twenty-four hours, and again repeating it ac cording to the state of the evacuations. At the end of twenty-four hours more, the bowels riot having been well moved, I repeated both turpentine and oil. In two days the beast showed symptoms of amendment, and in three or four took to his food again, and did perfectly well. All the yard beasts and two of the fattening beasts have had it (five others I had sent to London be fore the disease appeared), and all have been treated in the same manner with perfect success. Half a pint of turpentine is the smallest, and one pint the largest close during three or four days. Little food beside oatmeal gruel was given.—Qitatterly Journal of Agriculture. r The remedy above prescribed has been found effectual in this neighbourhood in several cases, even where the disease had attained a considerable height. It seas tried with success by a farmer near Donnemana, and many of his neighbours Is hose cattle had taken the distemper.— Londonderry ,Sentinel.] C lIIN A. We received on Monday, via Calcutta, advices front China to the 6th of June. Trade was then very dull. The English community were living in terror of an out break amongst the populace, both at Canton and Hong- Kong; at the latter place the guard of Marines sta tioned at the British Consul's establishment had been considered insufficient for security; and although the Marine establishment had been increased, so great were the apprehensions entertained by the authorities of their danger, that a guard ship had been sent for to Whampoa to lie off the city. Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane ar rived at Hong-Kong on the 4th ultimo. His Excellency Keying, the Imperial Commissioner, reached Canton on the 3d of May, on his way to Macao,.o bid adieu to Sir H. Pottinger. It was understood, however, that Keying had another object in view, namely, to make arrange ments for the visit of the American Ambassador, Mr. Cushing, to Pekin, whither he was about to proceed, with a view of negotiating a treaty of commerce with the Imperial- aovernmenr. A letter, dated Macao the 6th ultimo, says—" Keying, it is supposed, will be able to satisfy the wishes of the American and French Com missioners here, and prevent their proceeding further north; which is very desirable, as the people at Chusan, Ningpo, and Shanghae , have got it into their heads, that the French and the Americans have combined t o drive the English out of China, and by last accounts, were busy removing their valuables into the country and placing their money in secure places." The Mandarins were doing what they could to allay their apprehensions, but to little purpose. The French frigate Alemene had visited Chusan, and left again for the Yang-tze-Keang; and Admiral Cochrane having at the sometime withdrawn the English vessels of war from Shanghae and Ningpo, had confirmed them in the belief that their fears were well founded; business was consequently at a stand at the three northern ports. The French, having little or no trade with China, of course have nothing to lose by keep ing the country in a ferment with their pompous em bassies. With the Americans it is different, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Cushing will finish his negotiations there with the Chinese Commissioners. His doing so may induce the French to do the same ; but if they go north to show oft their formidable fleet at every foreign port, little trade, it is to be feared, will be done any where except Canton, until they return and leave these waters. The French Ambassador had not arrived. Sir Henry Pottinger, it was expected, would leave China about the 15th of July, in the steamer Spiteful for this port.—Bombay Times of July 24. TRADE OF AMOL — The Friend of China says:— " That though the nearest of all the new ports, Amoy is the one of a hich we hear least. There is a constant communication kept up between this colony and that port, by Messrs. Jardine, Matheson, and Co.'s opium vessels, but there is a mystery thrown over all the move ments of their ships engaged in the illicit trade, which is not to be penetrated ; they come and go without mail, passenger, or even the ceremony of intimating their arrival or intended departure to the harbour-master. Like the phantom ship of the Cape, they pass to and fro, and nothing more is known. The great proportion of the legitimate trade with Amoy has consisted of cotton wool and Straits' produce. In cotton piece goods, for the first five months after opening the port, the gross amount of sales did not exceed 35,000 dollars ; of cotton twist, 52,000 dollars; woolens, 14,000 dollars. In all article of import, with the exception of opium, for the first year the amount will not exceed 1,000,000 dollars. The exports, so] far, are trifling, being rather under 30,000 dollars." LORD ELLENBOROUGH'S RECAL. The following comments upon, and explanation of, Lord Ellenborough's recal, are from the Englishman, his Lordship's own organ in Calcutta. The self-defence of the Governor-General against the Directors is at least curious : _ " We are inclined to believe that no papers, which are likely to be published, either by the Government or the Court of Directors, will throw any more light upon the real motives of this measure than is visible at present. Of course, the papers will contain the alleged,. the os tensible reasons. It is not unlikely that the general policy of Lord Ellenborough's government may have afforded occasion for objection and remonstrance. It is not difficult to point out measures which admit of rea sons for disapprobation ; and it is not improbable that such disapprobation has been expressed in very strong terms, if, for no other reason, for the sake of affording a handle for the removal of the Governor-General, which it seems was contemplated and proposed eight months before it took place. But we do not think that any one, who has been an attentive observer of Lord Ellenbo rough's career, will be misled by any such pretext on the part of the Court of Directors. Lamentations over the fallen Princes of Sinde ; cries of affected philanthropy on receipt of the Gwalior dispatches, come with an ill grace from those who bore without a murmur Lord Auckland's invasion of Affghanistan, of which they had declared their disapproval, and who even urged upon him to retain a little longer the high office which he had filled so much to their satisfaction. The difference is not in the measures, but in the men. The Company ex ists only for and by patronage ; in it they live, and move, and have their being. This object next their heart has been cruelly outraged by the present Governor- General. His very first step on his arrival caused dismay in Leadenhall-street. It was well known that the private secretary of the late Governor General held the patron age of India in his hands, and rumours were not unfre quent that a sort of family compact existed, by which the influence of the Court would continue to bear directly on all Indian appointments, from the resident at a fo reign Court down to a lighthouse-keeper. Rumour also stated that the late secretary had been strongly persuaded to remain, to hold under the new Governor the same situation, with the same authority. Great, then, was the disappointment in certain quarters, when another name was publicly announced, and greater still, when applicants for office, holding letters from highly influential quarters, were told by the great man himself that he looked upon such recommendations as so many pieces of waste paper. But loud was the murmur of disappointment, when it was publicly announced that the rule of the new Government was to appoint the fittest person who could be found to fill a vacancy, with out regard to connections or solicitatiops. When, in additiott to ...th is, it was seen that. no. .near relatiattship . with Leadenhall-stre e t would be allowed to screen men from the consequences of official misconduct, and that the day was over when proved unfitness for one public situation was likely to be rewarded by appointment to a better, great was the cry of despair, and every mail went loaded with complaints of the neglect of just claims (i. e. of connection), and of the appointment of men to coveted situations, merely because they had done their duty. Such a state of affairs cou'd not last. Leadenhall street was agitated as it had not been since 1832. The Tories, whom it had' so steadily supported, even in their adiersity, were reproached with ingratitude ; and at last the coup d'etat was resolved on, when remonstrance was found unavailing. " The Indian civil service is notoriously the apple of the Company's eye. It has been lamentably shorn of its advantages ; it is no longer the life of undisturbed ease and great emolument, which it once was. Still it has its prizes, and is that branch of the public service which the Directors have ever reserved for their own family con nections and immediate friends. What then could be more offensive to them, than a public declaration that the Governor-General would always look upon service in the field as the highest claim to reward ? What more alarming than to find, in conformity with this declara tion, lucrative civil appointments bestowed upon the military men ? Besides, it is well known that plans have often been in agitation for making military service a necessary step to all public employment, except judi cial, in India. Might not the present Governor-General be just the man to carry such a plan into effect ? What then would be the consequence if the India Board were to find out that judicial appointment might be very well filled by English barristers, and that the patronage of the army ought to be vested in the Queen ? Some fine morning the Directors would wake, and find themselves with no appointment to give away, except those of chaplains and pilots.. Now, we do not say that any plan of this kind was matured, or even contemplated by Government ; but there were abundant indications of a tendency hostile to the patronage of the Directors, and they have taken the alarm accordingly. We do not think that they have mended their position by their move. They have, as the Ministers say, incurred a heavy responsibility. But they have done worse ; they have agitated ; they have set people to work, to think about the East India Company ; and their defenders already admit that it is an anomalous institution, meaning, we suppose, an unprecedented one. The members of a close corporation should have rem embered the maxim— Quieta ne fovea:, which is peculiarly applicable to mono polists. Do they think that they will not provoke in quiry by such an extraordinary and unprecedented step?. Nay, do they e xpect to escape the h ost ili ty o f t h e very clever, very active, and somewhat vindictive statesman whom they have offended? Have they forgotten that he would go home armed with information collected on the spot, and likely to be used with a perseverance and an eloquence, that will give no small weight to any measure he may propose for their discomfiture? We repeat, then, that the Duke's term ' gross indiscretion,' appears to us to apply admirably to the Company's measure. It was just one of those cases, when it is better to bear the ills you have, than to fly to others. that you know not of. A fit of temper or of sick ness, might have done for them what they have taken upon themselves to do ; and be sides, they might have calculated upon the chapter of accidents at home. At the worst, it would only have been necessary to bear a short period of suffbring, with the chances of naming a successor suited to their pur poses. Now they have caused an appointment which shows clearly which way the wind blows. The policy approved by the Duke will assuredly be carried out by his nominee. The ascendancy of the military is inoro marked by this appointment than by Lord Ellenbo rough's declarations ; and we greatly mistake if the , Company will not very soon make the discovery, that though the blows at their authority may henceforth be made with a polished sword, instead of a rough file, yet Ithat the steel will pierce deeper, though the wound in- Meted may not be so painful." GLOBE.—From assailing the majority of the law Lords, by whose decision the writ of error was affirmed, the impugners of that decision turn to. level ling objections to the House of Lords as a court of appeal in such cases. The court, it is alleged, was inadequate for what it performed. What ! the so lemn judgment of the Irish Court of Queen's Bench, with all its long train of previous, concomitant, and subsequent circumstances, reversed in a- moment by a triumvirate of Peers, acting for the nonce, in the capacity of judges; and the four folio volumes of evidence, so carefully prepared, and so beautifully arranged, reduced in an instant to so much waste paper ? True : this has been the case. But, then, if the Court be inadequete for the perform ance of its functions, blame not the Court, but the law, which constituted the Conrt. Let the law be changed, if it require alteration. In the meantime, it is the Court which has been appointed, and has been accustomed, to decide such questions. It has violated no rules. It has observed its prescribed forms. And, if the lay Lords thought fit to waive as they have been wont to do, their undoubted right of voting on a question respecting which they could have no knowledge, it is only what they have done on for mer occasions. It would be very hard if a rule which they have laid down to themselves, and long acted upon, as most consonant with justice and decency, should then only be departed from when the punish ment of a political antagonist was to be secured by , its violation. It is only those who would trans form the lay Lords into fit associates for Jeffries ; caring not for justice, but thirsting for revenge ; who have ventured to blame the lay Lords fur not esta blishing a precedent which, however it might gratify the evil passions of a particular party, would have covered the House of Lords with disgrace, and for ever I ruined its character and influence with the country Another objection is, that the writ of error was al lowed, and the judgment passed on the defendants re versed, contrary to the opinions expressed by a ma jority of the judges, whose advice had been sought. But to this may be replied, what is the end and de sign of a court of appeal, if it is not to possess this liberty of thought and act ? Why was the House of Lords constituted a court of appeal by our ancestors, if it is to be restricted in the way assumed by those who urge this objection ? If it is merely to have the privilege of confirming, and not reversing the judg ment of the inferior courts, it might as well not exist. Surely, it is not intended to be affirmed of the judges that infallibility pertains to their deci sions. The records of their judgments attest the contrary. The celebrated privilege case of Ashby v. White is a proof to the contrary. In that case Lord Chief Justice Holt stood alone against the other eleven judges, with the Lord Chancellor into the bar gain. But, in the emd, his judgment proved to he right, and was eventually affirmed. On the great Regency question the judges were also notoriously in the wrong. Besides, what has our legal constitution established ? From a judgment in the Queen's Bench, confirmed by the justices of the Common Pleas, and the Barons of the Exchequer, an ap psoe,atl, as s es B r a ek th s t e on i e iou ca se lls o i f t, L f o o r r ds t ; h t e he ul d ti e m rn ate ier d re e: cision of every civil action. Does not this show that on the very nicest points of law the House of Lords—constituted, as we know it to be, and imperfect as we may think it for the office — may reverse the decision of every judge in the land ? And are we to suppose that this has never been done ? There was a time when the privilege, strange as it may seem, was of infinite value. Such times may come again. That it admits of abuse, is true. In the meantime the principal inconvenience attaching to it the House of Lords wisely gets over, by leav ing the decisions on points of law to the law Lords who may be Members of the House. This is merely what was done on the late occasion. And this is what the Tory journals, and the Tory party generally, have the modesty to complain of. "To do a great good"—for such, in their eyes, would the further imprisonment of O'Connell have been—" do a little wrong," is the advice they would have given. Jost fortunately, it now appears, that if given it would not have been followed. The lay Lords have not been the rogues their friends wished them to be. They have acted, in this instance, as honest men ; and honesty, in this instance, as in all others, will prove to be the best policy. In the event ful times which are approaching, it is everything to have justice clearly on our side. This the Tories themselves will be brought to know and to confess. In the meantime let them rail. Perhaps railing may abate their rancour ; which, bottled up, might explode, and damage if not destroy them, and those around them. Let them exhaust their vocabulary of abuse upon the men who by fair and honest means, in the exercise of their legal right, and in conformity with established custom, have rescued the victims from their hands ; and restored them to that liberty which, it is now proved, they ought never to have been deprived of. It is to be hoped that their restored liberty will not be abused, either by the principal of the unjustly-convicted parties, or by any of the subordinate leaders of the repeal movement. The irate Tories by all the railing and ribaldry they employ cannot reverse the decision. From the decision of the House of Lords there is no appeal—except to posterity. The names, and the slanders of those who seek to invalidate that decision, will pass into oblivion. But on the principles they have sought to establish—on the monstrous proceed ings to which they have lent the aid of their advocacy —and on the political leaders and their tools on whom they fawn—the sentence of future generations will be ,pfon'otinced in - terms of unequivocal condemnation. STANDARD.—Our attention has been directed by the Morning Herald to an announcement in a provincial journal, evidently possessing some peculiar means of information in regard to Whig tactics, which derives additional confirmation from sundry signifi cant hints in the speech delivered by Mr. O'Connell at the Conciliation Hall on Monday. It is as follows : —" It will be recollected that we announced, some time back, on high authority, the difference of opi nion among the judges, and also that the majority of the tribunal of final appeal held an opinion favourable to the traversers. We revert to this, not for the purpose of vain boasting, but to obtain confidence for the announcement, which, upon the same autho rity, we are now enabled to make. It has been resolved to form a union of Liberal parties, for the purpose of driving the present Ministers from power, and it is intended to propose that one of the bases of agreement shall be a federal Parliament for Ireland. 'We have every reason to rely on the source from which we derive our information ; and we re commend the constituencies of the kingdom to be prepared soon to declare what policy is to be adopted in the present critical circumstances of the State." Such a rumour has been current for some months past, and experience has satisfied us there is no imaginable baseness to which the Whigs will not descend, that may offer them the remotest chance of a return to office. That some such scheme as the one above described has been gravely con sidered, even if no very active steps shall have been taken to carry it into effect, is extremely pro bable. After the Lichfield House compact, a con spiracy against the best interests of the country more disgraceful than any previous coalition in the history of political parties, we can have no reason to question the readiness of the Whigs to enter once more into a similar undertaking. In the present desperate condition of their affairs, in deed, the temptation is greater than ever ; and notwithstanding the five hours' speech by which Lord Monteagle established the fact that the union was the greatest blessing ever conferred on Ireland ; the Royal Speeches, in which Lord Melbourne denounced the very idea of repeal as the direct prelude to civil war ; and the elaborate declarations of Lord John Russell and other Whig notables, that any evil would be preferable to an attempt to disturb the Act of Union ; nothing is more probable than that they are ready and willing to combine with Mr. O'Connell for that purpose if they can foresee any prospect of ultimate advantage to themselves from such a compromise. Their argument for de livering the Irish Church into Mr. O'Connell's hands, will, we doubt not, be repeated on the present occa sion; a pretext which has invariably afforded the ex cuse for violent and unconstitutional changes. ,The howl for repeal is, we are told, about to subside into a canting whine for a federal Par liament, and the llforning Chronicle attempts to i delude its readers into the belief that a federal Parliament would not necessarily involve a step " so desperate as the repeal of the legislative union." The chief object of our Contemporary, indeed, in its article of this morning, would seem to be prepare the ova for the' open adhesion of its party to Aft.. O'Connell on this question. Nor are certain passages in his speech on Monday last by any means less significant. There is a coincidence between the sentiments of the Whig journalist and the Repeal Agitator, which, at any other time, might excite surprise. Mr. O'Connell recommends his proposed Council of Three Hundred as " a steady drag on the wheel of the movement." The Morning Chronicle deplores the position of Mr. O'Connell as the " creature of circumstances," adding that, " like all popular leaders, he must follow as well as lead ;" and ex presses its belief that Ireland " might be conciliated by a Liberal Government." Mr. O'Connell de clares that, though " the Whigs deserved in some instances to be assailed, the Irish owe a debt of gratitude to them," (base, brutal, and bloody, as he was wont to consider them), and he adds that " it would be hard to get him to abuse them again." Then follows a compliment to our Con temporary, which is reciprocated by another compliment to Mr. O'Connell for the mode ration of the language of his late speech ! To this succeeds, in Mr. O'Connell's harangue, an appeal to " the English people to join him in hurling Peel from office." By the English people Mr. O'Connell elsewhere informs us that he means the English Whigs; and ("there is nothing like leather") the Morning Chronicle is of opinion that Ireland can only be tranquillised by a Whig Go vernment ! It is to the Whigs that Mr. O'Connell has been indebted for the late extraordinary re versal of h!s sentence ; and it would be hard, indeed, if he dii not express some gratitude for their services. Gratitude is often the pre cursor of even more tender feelings, and ac cordingly we should not be in the least surprised to find that Mr. O'Connell and the Whigs had become as loving and intimate as of yore ; and had entered into the rumoured compact with him. The only safeguard of the country against the consequences of so mischievous an ar rangement, is the difficulty of rendering any contract between two - parties so much better known than trusted, binding ; and w:iilst the Whigs will not commit themselves again without a direct pros pect of advantage, their evil genius will not en cumber himself with their support unless they seem likely to attain a position very much more commanding than the one they occupy at present. Repeal agents are, we are told, about to be dispatched to this country to feel the pulse of the public on the subject, and if it should turn out that the Whigs are as destitute of influence as they are of character, the visits of these missionaries of sedition, as well as the subscription of Mr. O'Connell to the Duncombe fund, will have been hazarded in vain, and the contemplated coalition will fall to the ground. MONEY MARKETand CITY NEWS. CITY, WEDNESDAY EVENING. TlMES.—There has been a rumour of a fraudulent transfer of stock at the Bank of England to the extent of 30,0001., but it is totally without foundation, and pro bably originated in an exaggerated statement of the other forgery which we have noticed for the last two days. The Indian papers mention a large increase in the trade of Bengal. In the year ending the Ist of May last imports hare increased to the extent of 76,21,283 rupees, and exports to the extent of 2,46,50,105 rupees. The increase in imports is chiefly attributed to British cotton goods. The shipments of indigo have increased to the extent of 63,160} maunds. The large steamers indigo, t h seem e a m to or au h nwt a vs silk, fk 7 13, e i7i n k6 e , d 2p6i ael newerrupees, e de r s o : t ha e na dy f e o p r rbe c ec o ei o m n u m ss h e si r pt copene, stones, b n t yo d way of Suez. The number of British ships had increased from 823 (in the preceding year) to 990, while foreign vessels had diminished from 96 to 94. The total im ports to Bengal, including treasure, are set down at 6,47,66,562 rupees, and the total exports at 10,11,71,270 rupees. As some misunderstanding seems to have a r i sen with respect to the recent Act of Parliament (7th and Bth Victoria, cap. 39) exempting from the pay ment of income-tax a portion of the dividends on the New Three-and-a-Half per Cents., it may be stated that this Act applies to the New Three-and-a- Half per Cents. only, and not to the Reduced. The in come-tax first came into operation on the sth of April, 1842, and the dividends on the New Three-and-a-Half per Cents., due on the sth of July, were charged with six months' tax, although no more than three months had elapsed. This overcharge would have been rectified on the cessation of the income-tax had no financial alter ations taken place, for the portion of dividend accruing between January and April would have been exempt from duty altogether. Since the conversion of the Three-and-a-Half per Cents generally, the Government liberally enough have at once given back the holders of the New Tree-and-a-Half per Cents. the overpaid tax, by exempting from taxation the quarter's dividend that will be payable on the 10th of October next. As the dividends on Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. have always been payable in April and October, they did not pay any extra tax, and consequently there is nothing to return to the holders of the stock. It is certainly incor rect to call the concession made by the act a " bonus," as in fact it is only an allowance fur an over-payment made ataprevious period. _ _ The following letter has been addressed by a " Lon don Merchant,' on the distinction made by the Bank of England between " bills" and " notes" : " The real distinction intended by the Bank of Eng land between ' bills' and ' notes' is, I believe, this—that London bills are termed notes ;' others are termed bills.' " Promissory notes, which is the plain meaning of the term notes, are all but out of use. The coal trade is, I believe, a lmost the only branch of regular business where they remain in use. " The practical effect of the distinction made by the Bank seems to be this :—lf I sell 100 tons of tallow to a soap-boiler in London, and draw on him fur the amount, the bill is called a note,' and the Bank charge thereon 3 per cent. ; but if I happen to live in Leeds, and draw on a London merchant for the cost of 1,000 pieces of cloth, the bill is then a bill,' and not a note, and the discount thereon is 21 per cent. " The substantial ground of this distinction is not very obvious, the sole question being the difference be tween one class of security and another. " Again, supposing I sell my 100 tons of tallow to a soap-boiler in Leeds, and not in London. The bill is then drawn in London on Leeds. I presume this makes it a bill, and not a note, and therefore discountable at 21 per cent. " A little light as to the rationale of all this would not be unacceptable." The first case which is put by our correspondent is correct ; the second, we think, is incorrect. Provided the bill is drawn in London (that is to say, within 20 miles of it), it seems to be a " note," according to Bank phraseology, whether it be drawn upon a London or a country firm. Whether the " London Merchant" draws upon the London soap-boiler, or the Leeds soap-boiler, the document that represents the transaction is a note," and no more, and therefore, according to the late resolution, discountable at 3 per cent. The mer chant at Leeds who draws upon the London merchant, has, as our Correspondent rightly observes, originated a " bill," and not a " note." The reason of a difference of per cent., which is made in discounting these securities; arises from the great probability that the country bills will have a larger number of names upon them than the town bills or " notes." If the bill be drawn in the country, it will most likely be taken to the Bank for discount, not by the drawer himself, but by an endorsee, and thus there are three parties liable. If the bill he drawn in town, the drawer himself will probably take it to be discounted, and thus there will be only two parties liable. There are, no doubt, cases in which the town bills hare just as many names as country bills, but the grouni of distinction seems to rest on the presumption that this is the excep tion, and not the rule. It is, perhaps, to be regretted that some clearer words had not been adopted to mark this artificial distinction than " bills " and " notes," which hare an accepted meaning totally different from that in which they are used in Bank parlance. Every where but at the Bank of England "bill," we believe, means " bill of exchange," and " note" means " promis sory note." had the expressions " town bills " and "country bills" been used, the resolution would have been more generally intelligible.

General Nott ar r i ve d h ere NEATH, SEPT. 10 . — Yesterday, and r eceived_ a most enthusiastic we l come from his native town. Triumphal arches were erected across the streets, and the houses were decorated witli laurels, Scc. The bells rang merry p ea l s—all the shops were closed, and thousands of people collected together to have a sight of the "Hero of Ghuznee," by which term he was loudly greeted. On his arrival at the Rope-walk gate, at the entrance to the town from the Bristol road, he was met by the Mayor, several magistrates, the Town Council, and a great number of respectable persons, who escorted him in. Th e h orses were taken out of the carriage, which was drawn in :by men to the Inn, once his home, where many of his youthful days were spent. The Mayor, R. Pheyson, Esq., then presented tho address from the Town Council, congratulating him on his arrival, to which he replied, but in such a low tone of voice that little could be heard of what lie did say. He has been forty years in India, and appears to labour under severe indisposition. The gallant General, after sleeping last night at the Castle Inn, left this morning, accompanied by his two daughters, for Carmarthen. PUBLIC PARKS IN MANCHESTER. (Abridged from the Manchester Guardian.) On Tuesday evening an aggregate meeting of the working classes of Manchester and Salford, convened by advertisement and placards, was held in connection with the movement now making for this important object, in the Free-Trade Hall, Peter-street. The floor of the hall was nearly filled by half-past seven o'clock, and there was a goodly number of ladies in the galleries, About a quarter before eight o'clock, a _number of gentlemen and operatives who had been an nounced as speakers, came upon the platform. Amongst others, we noticed the Rev. William Huntington, Rector of St. John's ; Mr. Malcolm Ross, Dr. Lyon Playfair, Mr. P. H. Holland, Mr. Edward Watkin, Mr. J: Falvey, Mr. Benjamin Fothergill, Mr. Abel Heywood, Mr. Wm. Shuttleworth, Dr. John Watts, Mr. R. J. Richardson, Mr. James Leach, Mr. Ralph Smith, &c. 8;c. At ten minutes before eight o'clock, on the motion of Mr. R. J. Ilichardeon, seconded by Mr. Morris, the chair was taken by Mr. Abel Heywood. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, having read a copy of the placard by which the meeting was convened, adverted to the 14rge and important meeting held in the Town-hall, at which the wealthy of the town congregated, and Lord F. Egerton, a gentleman and as scholar, (rave 1,000/.—(Applause.) Several gentlemen of Manchester, whose names were enrolled in every sub scription to promote the well being of the working clas ses, gave subscriptions. Sir B. Heywood, Sir Thomas Potter, and many others of considerable influence came forward and advocated this question, not only by their speeches, lut more practical:y by their money. This was the beginning of one of those progressive move ments now making throughout the kingdom - for a greater desire now ex i s t e d i n t h e m i n d s o f t h e higher and middle classes to promote the welfare of the working classes, than at any former petiod. He hoped that the working classes would do all they could (and they could do much if they chose) to carry out this noble object. Mr. R. J. RICHARDSON came forward to move the first resolution. He had been in most large towns in the United Kingdom, and in some on the continent ; and, seeing the pleasure and healthy recreation enjoyed by both sexes and all classes, he had deeply regretted that the metropolis of manufactures should have no public park or walks for its industrious community. He dwelt on the extent of the Glasgow Green, two miles in length; and on the Nottingham Meadows, where he hid seen fifty to a hundred games of cricket being played at once, as early as five o'clock in the morning. Nottingham Forest, too, which had been attempted to be wrested from the people, they could again claim as their own, at Lam mas. The parks of London were now open to the people; and a large extent of ground had been set asid e f or th e i r use in the east end of London, to he called the Victo ria Park. In Bristol the people had beautiful - walks on the banks of the Avon, and on St. Vincent's .rocks, where hundreds of people might be seen walking in the evening. In Dundee the Government, during the late distress, contributed a sum of money to be expended in improving Magdalen-green, where the inhabitants may enjoy the breezes from the hills of Fife, the calm zephyrs from the Curse of Gowrie and the bosom of the Tay. In Montrose, Perth, Arbroath, and Aberdeen, the inhabi tants had their spacious inches for healthy recreation. Lord Francis Egerton had said that he was in arrears to the inhabitants of this town, and was only paying an in stalment—(Applause)—and he was glad to see a kin dred feeling animating others to g i ve t h e i r thousands and their ndreds. He was quite sure, from what he knew of the working classes, that they would indeed be grateful for this assistance, and would show their grati tude by doing their best to contribute. In their benefit clubs and shop clubs, and private coteries, let them make joint efforts. Let it not be said, " We'll have a park here, or there, or yonder ;" let that be left to the parties who had so well come forward with their funds in pro-' motion of this object. The parks would doubtless be in those districts where they would do most good to the working classes. In a few years they would have the privilege of walking on their own lands, and saying, in all the dignity of freemen, " These are for us and our children for ever." He concluded by moving the first resolution. Mr. JAMES LEACH seconded the resolution. The Rev. W. HUNTINGTON, Rector of St. John's, in supporting the resolution, said he had the most sincere pleasure in giving whatever support he could, in his situation in Manchester, to this most important resolu tion ; and, if ever there was a measure to unite men of all sentiments and opinions together, it was this. During eighteen years' residence here, he asked himself how he could best promote the welfare of the working classes, and he believed they required nothing more than whole some and healthy amusement ' • and he desired, th a t, with this view, there might be longer hours of leisure.— (Applause.) He hoped that nothing would be said, how ever, at all irrelevant to the subject of the meeting. If the operatives followed it up as they ought, they would raise an equal or a greater amount than had already been raised. He was glad to see medical men present. From his own experience he spoke when he said that many in fants died from the impure and smoky atmosphere. In seven months, he had lost, while living within the town, three beloved children ' - and, since he had remove d to the outskirts, his family had enjoyed a health which he sincerely wished every labouring man to enjoy. It was as natural for men to built and live in towns, as for rabbits to dwell in burrows ; and the country was as dependent on the towns as the towns upon the country. Venice had her quay ; Paris, her boulevards ; and London, her parks. The same love of the country pre va il e d here, as was witnessed by the numbers flocking by the Bridge water packet-buts, and by the railway to Alderley Edge. lie had been told by a noble lord, of George 11. that, when in St. James's Pelee: he said to his minister, " Really, this is scarc e ly wor thy of a king's garden; what would it cost to join St. James's Park and Green Park to the royal gardens ?" The reply was, " Please your Ma jesty, just three crowns"—meaning the crowns of Eng- land, Ireland, and Scotland. His Majesty took the hint, and let the parks alone. Lately, in Scotland, on the borders of the Highlands, he had witnessed the most kindly and friendly intercourse between landlord and tenant, and he did not see why there might not be such intercourse in the public parks and gardens of Manches ter, between the master manufacturers and operatives, with great mutual benefit. He by no means despaired of seeing this come to pass. He dearly loved the honest operatives of Manchester; he would rather see them with less pale, with more bronzed and sun-burnt faces.— (Hear.) Dean Milner, of Cambridge, said he had n ever conversed with an honest operative (of Leeds, of which town he was a native) without learning something which he did not know before. Professor Sedgwick, when last in Manchester, had beautifully said, that there should not be so high a hedge between rich and poor, that the words and offices of Christian kindness and sympathy could not pass over.—(Hear.) In the contemplation of the works of creation around them, in these public parks he thought they could hardly fail " to look from nature up to nature's God." He hoped when thus enjoying re creation every evening, the public would less desecrate the Sabbath, but join is public worship on that day. It had been said by one gentleman that the people would tear up the flowers and root up the trees, but he did not be lieve anything of the kind. He hoped that in these gar dens would be statues, porticoes, and ornaments ; and that we should have no longer to go abroad fur pattern designers, but find the sources of design in these beauti ful scenes. He hoped that, ere long, these pleasures of anticipation would be changed into pleasures of posses sion.—( Applause.) Mr. J. MORRIS moved the second resolution, which was seconded by Mr. R. SMITH. Mr. Manconsi Ross, in supporting the resolution, said it had been asked what use would these parks be applied to? He had been told that on an evening lately a thou sand factory hands had been seen joining in one game of foot-ball. This was one of the uses of these parks. In these parks he hoped there would be public fountains of pure water, seats for the invalid, the sick, and the aged, and everythiug that could contribute to the rational and innocent recreation of the people. [Mr. Ross then read the letter received from Sir R. Peel, which we have pub lished in another place. It was received with the most enthusiastic and repeated cheering throughout the vast assemblage.] Mr. I'. H. HOLLAND, surgeon, said he had been_ re quested to bring forward a few facts as regarded the health of the population. In all towns there was a very large excess of mortality; and a commission had been inquiring into the causes of this excess, the report of which he held in his hand, and one of the commissioners was present, watching the proceedings of the meeting with great interest. In this town there was a large ex cess of mortality over that of rural districts, amounting in Manchester to 10,259 extra deaths more than in an equal population of the healthy part of the country. This was not inevitable ; and therefore to resign lt.The poor them selvesto it was not patience, but folly,s h nots.ifon by coloured classes i in e guilt. poor were the principal suffere rs , a ityofto di ff er en tthe age of forty ptarbelsetsonan. d n cu a r l v f e t s he of ge tl n ie mortal ity survivedortal five, whereas half the children of the operative classes died before the age of five years. Very much of the extra mortality among children would be removed, if they could only have fresh air. The remedy was to make our mode of life in this town that of the country. B y opening and cleansing our streets, and having in spectors # of public health ; remove burial grounds from amongst us, and have places of public recreation and ex ercise, and we will make a large subtraction from that mortality, and increase the means of health and strength, happiness and enjoyment. Let every one contribute his mite, however small ; if h e gave all he could it was equal to the donation of thousands from the wealthy. Let all give, for all would enjoy the advantages of these public parks and playgrounds. The CHAIRMAN put the resolution, which was passed unanimously. Mr. THOMAS FALVEY, in moving the third resolution, adverted to the magnitude of the meeting as exceedingly gratifying, and a proof of the great interest that the work ing class took in this question, which so immediately and importantly concerned them. Several resolutions of a practical nature were agreed to, ant the meeting broke up. NUMBER. OF 1 R ISII IN 1U ANCIIESTER.---The Leeds Mercury of Saturday last, in a communication from its Manchester correspondent, on the reversal of O'Connell's sentence, says, " What course the Irish part of our town [Manchester] population, supposed to be fully one fourth, purpose taking, to express their joy at the news," &c. Now, it is one of the important uses of the recently published census returns to expose and put down those loose and exaggerated statements • of .num bers which are too often put forth by the press. So far from the statement of the Leeds Mercury s Manchester correspondent being true, that the Irish are " supposed to be fully one fourth " of the population of Manchester, they are known to he not quite one•eightli ! The total population of the borough of Manchester, in 1841, wa s 24'),983, of which 30,304 were Irish ; 14,353 males, an d 15,951 females. The Irish population of Liverpool is 49,639 ; and the Irish population of the entire county, 105,916. About four-fifths of the Irish people in Lan cashire are therefore to be found in Liverpool and Man chester. In Salford there were 3,996 Irish in Ml.—. Manchester Guardian.
