Mr. MIALL'S objection to Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH being that he does not go far enough as a Parliamentary 2efurmer, we congratulate Mr. MItLL on the felicity of his first appearance in public life. Mr. MIALL could bamily alight on any constituency, represented by a _Liberal member or Liberal members, where he would not find a greater difference between himself and the Liberal representative. If there is any man among the Liberal politicians of the present day whom we should Atave thought more secure than another against corn. pl,Unts of not going tar enough as a Reformer, that man is Sit' WILLIAM MOLESWORTH.

SITN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORNIN p I_ATTOTTST_et to 1e45. officers, charged with being implicated in the con spiracy at Nauplia, had been transported to the island o Zea without trial. We learn from the Maltese papers that the Bey of TUNIS is still apprehensive of an attack frum Tripoli; where 3,000 Annauts are encamped outside the wails or the city. The Malta Mediterraneo, however, considers these alarms to be merely the spec. of some consul who wants to sell the Bey of TUNIS some gunpowder, as was the case in April, 1844. The American frigate Cumberland arrived at Tripoli on the 7tb. We have received Madrid papers of the, 19th a 20th. The capital was quiet on the evening of the 20:h at nine o'clock. From-these papers we arc enabled to give the follow ing history of the events of the insurrection. On the 18th of August a meeting of the tax-payers was held, at which nearly every class of society was represented, end :which was attended by wore than 500 persons, to peti tion the QUEtN against the new contributions. In the evening some disturbances took place ; in the Las Vis tillas quarter there was a struggle with the pollee, and some of the ringleaders were captured. On the 19th al the shops were closed, and groups of unemployed wirk men, armed with sticks and knives, assembled in the streets. Th e Minister=, who remained in consultation at tt.e Home Office, ordered strong patrols of infantry ain cavalry to clear the streets. Previous to these orders being issued, those officers who had been found in the streets unprotected were wounded with knives, it is said mortally. The troops charged two or three times, ai.d about a dozen shots were fired. Several persons were wounded.. Two, it is said, are killed. Thiee mountain guns were placed near the Post-office, and a baA do was issued by FIRMIN URTELA, the Political Chief, contall• ing the following enactments : " 1. Any person who, without special permission granted by me to the contrary, shall not open to the public, within four hours after the publication of this notice, his shop or whet establishment, shall be considered as an accomplice in the re attempted Against the execution of the laws voted by the Cortes and sanctioned by the Crown, and shall be prose cuted accordingly. " 2. The commissaries of police of the dif f erent quarters shall, after the publication of this notice, atd after the delay there set forth, visit their respective districts, and report to tae the names of all parties offending against the said order, that the due proceedings may be instituted against them. " 3. Shops for eatables and other articles of first-rate neces sity must ()pen immediately, and those who do not do so will be opened by the authorities, in order that the public may not be deprived of their supplies. "4. Groups of people as s embling in the streets are for • 'bidden when the number exceeds four ; and those persisting in remainittg after summoned to disperse will be arrested." At about two o'clock the crowds began to disperse. The cotlee-houses and provision shops were opened, but almost all the other shops continued closed. The troops continued under arms the whole day, but the public tranquillity was not further disturbed. Thirty-sev,n per sons were arrested during the day, of ivinin, it is stici. three are to be shot forthwith. Extraordinary muriers were dispatched to the various provinces to inform diem that the. tranquillity of the capital had n been seriously disturbed. During the evening 100 of the principal tradesmen were sent for by the Political Chief and re commended to open their shop, which, it is said, they promised to do. Several merchants were arrested in ,he course of the evening. On the morning of the 20 perrnanentcourt-martial was establi3hed at th. Post-otliee for the trial of the prisoners. More than 70persons %%ere arrested for refusing toopcn their shops; aroong th, m were Jonie of the principll tradesmen of Madrid. The doors f the shops in the Calle Toledo were forced opi n witi swords and axes. One man wus killed in this ate eet is, :'he course of the day. It is stated that the new Luxe: have been resisted in a similar manner at Burgos, Sara gossa, Toledo, and Seville. During the enteute on the 19th, the cries of " Viva la Regna," " Viva la Constitu i,ion," " Mueran los tirarnios," were frequently utteredi and in many places the cry of " Viva E,partero" vra 6 raised. The Herald° of the 20th says, that tranquillity is completely restored, and that the people begin to see the folly of opposing the law. It states that several shop. keepers have changed their mind, and purpose recom• mencing business, and that fur its conduct in doing s"J Madrid deserves freedom. One of the prisoners taken on the previous day in the act of poignarding an officer was condemned to death by the court• martial, and several others, to different terms of imprison►n' nt in a presidio. The same journal announces that Gener:l BRETEN, Captain. General of Arragon, it appoint, d Captain-General of Catalonia, in the room . of General CONCHA, and that General hIANso succeeds BRETEN in Arragon. Don FRANCISCO DI PAULA and his family are about to proceed to Pampeluna, to meet the Duke DE NEmouRS. The Clamor relates a horrid act of barbarity com- Witted by General SHELLEY, Captain-General of Se ville. An inhabitant of the city having in a moment of intoxication shouted Viva la Wm, tad, SHELLEY had him seized and beaten to death. The poor victim has left a widow and large family. ' " • Two operations only in the Three per Cents., amount ng to 6,000,000 reals ; they close at 31i at 60 d Fives, 224 at 60 days ; amount, 2,800,000 reals. We have received the Paris papers of Monday. They all comment on the recent ocJurrences at Madrid, and the merits of the newly-appointed Members of ti►e Chamber of Peers, are the subject of observation in the Opposition journals. The Legitimatist papers consider these appointments as preparatory to a dissolution, but the Constitutionnel says the object of the recent creatio❑ of Peers is to secure such a majority in the Peers as will enable the Chamber to resist the wishes of the Deputies as to the conversion of the Five per Cent. Stock, and as to the new law in the University. A letter from Algiers, dated August 15, says :- 0 Military operations continued in the circle of Orleans ville. Two columns scour the country in all directions, to pursue the bands of insurgents, who still hold out for the_Marabout who instigated the last revolt. It ap pears that on his side General BOURJOLLY, at the head of the movable column of Mostaganem, has again ap peared in the Lower Chehff It is doubtful whether the fractions of tribes that have taken up arms can Le brought under subjection by the month of October, the period for commencing the grand operations. The heat is now excessive, and water fails on almost every point, so that it is impossible to venture far into the interior. The movements of the small columns have generally for object to give confidence to the tribes who have re mained faithful. The markets of the interior are well frequented, which would lead to the inference the' I tranquillity has returned." The Duke and Duchess DE NE3IOURS arrivi.l at Bayonne on the 20th, and were received with great en thusiasni. The Duke laid the foundation-store of a nets bridge intended to be built over the Adour. Their Royal Highnesses left on the 22d for Pau. The Three per Cents. closed at 84f. 30c. ; the New Loan at 84f. 45c. ; the 11 .1 pm. Cents.

Infi delity has a wide meaning in a Tory mouth, and some times means no more than dissent. A letter from Magdebetrg of August 20, in the Co logne Gazette, says :—" The day before yesterday pubic tranquillity was troubled for some hours, in consequence of an arrest effected by the police. A crowd increased rapidly: it was first the intention to give a serenade to the Commandant of the place, because he had mani fested sentiments of humanity for the people, but the police opposed it. in order to avoid the coming together of two great a meeting of men. At eleven o'clock order was restored. Nine persons were arrested." A letter from Berlin, August 19, states that the King of PRUSSIA. has conferred the portfolio of Foreign Affairs ad interim, during the illness of Baron DE BULOW, on General DE CANITZ, his MAJESTY'S Envoy at the Court of Austria. Letters from Athens of the 10th inst. state that, in consequence of COLETTI'S determination to swamp the Senate by his recent creation of Senators, METAXA hail resigned his office of Minister of Finance. Six Advices to the 7th have been received from Constan tinople. The Porte had communicated to the Ambassa dors of the Five Powers the measures it was about to adopt to restore order in Lebanon. The Ambassadors met on the 31st to consider the subject, and communicated to the Turkish Government their approval of the measures proposed. The disposition to revolt against Turkish governors, manifested so frequently of lute, had showed itself in various quarters. At Bagdad the sub•gol ernor had revolted against the governor, but was defeated and forced to fly into Persia. At Mossoul several Kurdish Beys had risen against the PACRA, while at Vau en in surrection has broken out of a most serious character. ditto (titnguerlot), ihr.

(From The Sun of Last Night.) In the TA vi-rpool markz:t yesterday the sales of Cotton were 6,0u0 baO.,, including 1,200 American on speculation. Prices were liy upported,more especially for the middling de so, ion-, wind! were becoming scarce, and the demand was chiedy for those sorts. A good business was done in shares, and generally at improving prices. The following are some interesting items respecting the state of the Island of Ceylon :—" Accounts are now ar riving from Europe of the prices realised by the different samples of last year'scoffee, and, upon the whole, they must be deemed sathfactory, considering the unfavourable season. What shall we do thisyear _ _ - " Speculators have now fine opportunities for the invest ments of capital, several fine ready made estates are already advertised, and we hear of a splendid property which is shortly to be offered without reserve to the highest bidder, under circumstances promising a rare chance to capitalists ; despite this, new pieces are being commenced in all directions, and each year adds thousands to our list of coffee acres. "Since the commencement of the present ninth the weather has again become dry and settled, and there seems a pro bability of a few days continuance of it, when we may ex • pest useful showers. Coolies are in fair supply, as sickness is abating. The central province is barren of news." As to produce transactions, they are described as being at Ow very lowest ebb, and likely to remain so for some little time. Islearly the whole of the remaining portion of plantation crops had been shipped off; and though there were still a few odd parcels of that description;as well as of native coffee, in the Colombo Gudowns, the season's crops might fairly be considered to have left the island. They had turned out much earlier than those of last year; and, although up to the date of our advices, the exports somewhat exceeded the shipment, in the like period of 1844, it was supposed that on the entire year ending Oct. 5, the exports would be found about on a'par. Freights con tinued steady at 5/. ss. for coffee, and 61. 6s. for cinnamon, with only two vessels in the roads. The Ceylon Observer states : "As Yet no spice has found its way into the hands of dealers, die peelings having not long commenced ; the cut tings of plantation cinnamon promise tolerably well, but there appears every probability of the peelings from jungle bushes turning out far short of the past year. We do not hear any inure of the petition for reducing the shilling ex port duty on the spice. How is this? We know not a better time to urge it on our Legislature." The stocks have been quiet again, and there is no buoyancy in prices, with the exception of Bank Stock, which is up to 211% and 21214. East India Stock has been at 271 to 272, being a shade lower. The New Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realised 102% lA, and the Three per Cents, 99% ?4. On Exchequer-bills the premium is 495. to its. The Government broker is still a buyer of stuck. There is as limited a business as ever doing in Spanish Bonds, but prices remain about the same as previously. The Five per Cents. are 27%, and the Three per Gilts. 3V I / 4 . 1 4. Mexican Bonds have been worth 34 3 4 to 35 for the Active, and 18% for the Deferred. Columbian Stock is steady at 18 1 /, and Brazilian at 89. 'rile Railway Share market is lively for the scrips at im proving rates, but the old lines seem I,enerally to be rather flatter, because in some measure they arc neglected. Among the favourite scrips we notice London and York, Staines and Richmond, Shrewsbury, Hereford, and Noi tii Wales, South Midland. and Manchester, Buxton, and Midland, Manchester and Southampton; and one or two others not yet officially quoted are also at pod premiums. HER MAJESTY'S VislT TO THE CONTINENT. 65 2714 21g 6% 38 1 / 12 60 11- 3 ib 21 taken, arid it was delightful to see their enthusiasm, the girls waving their white handkerchiefs and the boys their caps. As soon as this promenade was over, and the promenaders had returned to the pavilbns, the children's turn came. They formed once more in procession, and walked slowly , r•und the inclosure to the music of the bands, passing seve rally by the Queen. It was a pretty sight. The little fair haired girls in their chaste costume of white and ivy wreaths, the strange, often groteslue, mixture of the fancy dresses of the boys, the uniforms of the gendarmerie, and of the officers who attended the party, the music, flags, and the general stir and excitement among such a multitude of peo ple, rendered the whole thing ore of the gayest and most animated scenes weever remember to have witnessed. '1 he procession was a sort of Eton Montem show hi miniature, but with the graceful addition of the girls ; and the whole ground on which the festival took place, with the shows and booths, the music, and the gay crowds of people sauntering about and enjoying themselves, looked like a fair, but with out its rude license. The part of the whole affair which will most surprise an English reader is, that in a very few minutes after the pro cession was over, the whole royal party sat down to dinner in the pavilion, amidst all the noise of the jarring bands, and the clashing of the cymbals, and under the gaze of thou sands of people. To our own Queen it must have been a scene of peculiar novelty, and the people in England will no doubt be not a little surprised to find that so many crowned heads and royal personages as were here assembled could, without any loss of their supposed dignity, dine in this al fresco style, in a meadow, sur rounded by so many of what we should in England deem the ruder elements of rustic gaiety. But this is one of the most agreeable characteristics of royalty in these continental countries—the free and unreserved manner in which they mix with the people; nor is it less remarkable that the people never abuse this privilege of partaking in the amuse ments of their rulers by those exhibitions of rudeness and vulgar curiosity which are too often seen in England on pub lie occasions. The dinner lasted upwards of an hour. In the meanwhile the children were allowed to drink beer at a neighbouring Gasthaus, and after dinner there was a dance, the Queen and the rest of the royal party looking on. The charm of the whole affair was the utter absence of all ceremony. The same scene takes place every year, so that what appears so strange and striking to an English eye is here looked on as a matter of course. The Queen took a most lively interest in the festival, particularly in the dancing of the children and their merry ;pines at romp and play. The whole wound up with " God save the Queen," sung admirably by the chil dren ; and after a final cheer the royal party left at a few minutes befote six o'clock. COBURG, AUG.. 22.—Her Majesty and the rest of the royal party assembled here are living in comparative retirement. The Queen and Prince Albert continue with their suite to occupy Rosenau. The King and Qaeeu of the Belgians occupy the palace belonging to the King as one of the Princes of Saxe Coburg, situated within the town, at the back of the theatre, and the Duchess of Kent and the other visitors live at the town palace of the reigning Duke. There is also a complete change iu the habits of the Court from those to which they are accustomed at home. This morning they all breakfasted in the open air, on a terrace before one of the fronts of Rosenau, a spot which the late Duke always selected for his evening meal, as it commands one of the most beautiful views in this beautiful valley. The dinner hour is much earlier than in England, four o'clock being considered rather a late hour to dine. Yesterday, after dinner, the royal party drove over from Rosenau to the town palace here, where her Majesty and the Prince held a sort oflevee or reception, called here a ",'circle." Among those presented were the Grand Duke of Baden and his son, the Dowager Duchess of Coburg, the Princess Reuss, Count Mensdorff and his three sons, Prince Ferdinand of Coburg, and Prince Leopold of Cobsrg. In the morning, after breakfast, the Queen drove over to Callenborg, a castle of the Duke of Saxe Coburg, which is his more usual residence than the town palace, when he is not at Rosenau. It was stated that the Queen drove over the other evening to the fortress. The drive from Rosenau there, along a road which winds round a thickly. wooded mountain (called the Bausenberg), is remarkably beautiful. It commands, at different points, views of the scenery about Saxe Coburg, which is of a very high order of the picturesque, and, above all, abounding in every possible variety. From the fortress itself a views is obtained of an immense expause c f country on all sides. It is not sur passed by any similar view, either for beauty or for the extent of country it embraces. Imme• diately at the foot of the hill on which the fortress stands lies the city of Coburg, embosomed in hill and wood land. In other parts of the landscape there are rich fertile plains stretching for miles towards the horizon, and these again are varied by well wooded hills, and valleys of pictu resque beauty. The prospect is bounded on all sides in the far distance by mountains. On the one hand are the mountains of Thuringia ; on time other, the Fichtelgebirge, in Bavaria ; and the hills which inclose the valley of the Maine complete the picture. Parts of Hesse Cassel and Saxe Meiningen are also visible. The interior of the fortress amply repays the time be stowed on a visit. Many parts of it are as they were two or three hundred years ago. There are some good old portraits, among a great many inferior ones, of the different Princes and Princesses of the house of Coburg. A room called the Horn Room is quite unique in its way. It is lined, walls and ceiling, with oak, inlaid in the most admir able way with different sorts of wood. All along the walls at intervals are panels formed of a sort of mosaic of wood, each representing in the most quaint style imaginable the incidents of the chase. They were executed for Duke John Casimir. In anotherroom are some very fine portraits of the heroes of the thirty years' war—of Tilly, Wallenstein, Duke Bernard of Saxe Weimar, Gustavus Adolphus, &c. They are mostly by Schneider, a living artist, and reflect the highest credit on his talents. There is also the room where Luther was concealed ; and his bedstead and table, and some other veritable relics, are preserved. A magnificent collection o old armour fills a large room, and provides inexhaustible in terest for the spectator. It is a most complete thing of its kind. There are, also, some old carriages that belonged to Duke John Casimir—the most grotesquely built and orna mented vehicles that were ever seen out of the Burmese em pire. A large collection of sledges, of similar make, is also very interesting. There are sonic frescoes in different parts of the building, from which our English artists might take a lesson. The rest of the fortress is occupied as a sort of house of correction, in which the prisoners work at different trades —the only persons in Coburg who seem at this festive season to be doing anything at all. This afternoon a spectacle was presented to the Queen quite novel in its character, and at the same time perfectly lier• man. It appears that there is at Coburg an annual festival called the " Feast of Gregorius." It has lasted for several hundred years, and is kept up with funds long since be queathed for the purpose. It fell to-day ; and in that spirit of simple enjoyment and relaxation from courtly cere mony which has characterised the visit of the Queen here, because it seems to be the custom of the country, her Ma jesty and the whole royal party came down from the palace to be present at the gay scene. In a spacious meadow in one of the suburbs of Coburg pavilions were erected, and a portion of the ground opposite these pavilions was fenced in with festoons and garlands. In the pavilions tables were laid for dinner, of which the royal visitors were to be the partakers. Besides the pavilions there were also many other booths, a travelling theatre, and a most grotesque roundabout, with hobby horses and sledges, mounted on which were musicians playing a most musical polka, and girls and boys in fantastic dresses. This was the preparation on the ground. The festival was of a different kind. All the chil • dren of the town schools, girls and boys, formed, according to custom, in procession, to the number of 600 or 700. The girls were all dressed in white, their heads adorned with ivy wreaths, and their dresses festooned in like manner. Some wore fancy costumes—the Highland dress, the Greek du ss ; and there were flocks of the prettiest little shepherdesses in t lie world. The greater number of the boys also wore fancy costumes—they were dressed as jagers, as Highlanders, Greeks, Turks, Albanians, to say nothing of one or two first rate little Napoleon Bunapartes, and an unexceptionable Captain Macheath. This pretty troop of mummers preceded the royal party to the festival ground, and formed themselves in lines within the precincts of the festoons opposite the pavilions, marching to bands of music. Of course there were multitudes of look ers-on—they formed a dense mass around the gay throng, but conducting themselves with the utmost propriety. There was no crushing or crowding, each respected the con venience of the rest ; yet all em Jo . ) ed the scene to the ut most, laughing, chatting, and uttering the liveliest expressions of admiration. The arrival of a long string of royal carriages with out riders in liveries, all blazing with gold, was the signal for a general stir of expectation, and as her Majesty alighted from Ler carriage and entered the open pavilion, there was a ge neral shout of hearty welcome. In a few minutes the whole party were on the ground. All the distingaished persons whose mines we have alieady mentioned as being here at tended time rustic feast, and her Majesty, leaning on the arm of the Duke of Saxe Coburg, tikowed by the King and Queen of the Belgians and Prince Albert and the Duchess of .Kent, walked slowly between the long lines of children, stopping occasionally to speak to the prettiest or the most gaily dressed. A succession of sharp shrill cheers in childish treble expressed their pleasure in a manner not to be mis COURT CIRCULAR. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, were taken an airing on the Sea beach on Monday morning. In the afternoon the Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, were taken a carriage-drive to Wotton, and Prince Alfred and the Princess Alice rode on ponies in the pleasure-grounds of Osborne House. On Tuesday morning the Prince of Wales, the 'Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, walked on the beach. Prince Alfred and the Princ.?ss Alice were taken an airing in a carriage to Newpsirt in the after noon, and the Prince of Wait's and the Princess Royal rode on ponies in the pleasure-grounds. Dispatches were sent otr yesterday evening from the Colonial-office for the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope. THE EXPERIMENTAL SQUADRON.--WE have re ceived further accounts of the experimental squadron, which we can rely on. From these. we learn that the Queen had the best of the first day. On the morning of the second day's trial St. Vincent was first, Queen second, Canopus third, and the rest far astern, the old Trafalgar almost out of sight to leeward. Thick weather then came on, and continued for several days. The next trial was a run of about eighty miles, on Saturday, wind W.N.W. when Canopus was agai n the fi rst, Albio n se cond, Queen third, followed in rotation by Rodney, Superb, St. Vincent, Vanguard, and last old Trafa lgar, In the next trial, on the following Monday, in a rue of twenty miles, course about North-West, St. Vincent was first, Vanguard next, followed by Rodney, Canopus, Queen, Albion, Tra falgar, and Superb last. The locality of the cruising ground is the Nymph Bank, which stretches across the chops of the Channell, and about ninety miles from Scilly. Subsequent ac counts to the 10th instant state the Queen to have proved her self the best of the three-deckers, and the Canopus the best of the two-deekers, in all the trials which had taken place. It is also stated that the Trafalgar, Vanguard, and Superb, were the sternmost ships of the squadron, the laver universally so, and her performances altogether had been throughout the reverse of her name.—Hampshire Advertiser. SUDDEN DEATH IN THE 'EDGEWARE-ROAD.— On Tuesday Mr. G. J. Mil's held an inquest at the Royal Standard, Star-street, Paddington, on the body of Joan Boyd, aged forty-five, a gentleman's servant. On Sunday last deceased called on a friend, with whom he walked to Bayswater, and there partook of tea. They then called on an acquaintance living with General M'Leod, in Sasses-square, and afterwards as they were returning home through the Eolgeware-road, deceased was suddenly seized with a tit opposite to the Paddington Chapel. He was conveyed to his iodgangs, 63, Star-street, and there died at two o'clock on the following morning. Medical evidence attributed deceased's death to , apoplexy. Verdict accordingly. ~~~.

The friends of this gentleman held another meeting ast evening, at the Ship Inn, Long-lane, Bermondsey, ;o advance the interests of their favourite candidate, Mr. Maynard in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said the object of the meeting was to alvatice the liberties of the people, by the return of Mr. lliail to Per(lament. That Hon. Gentleman would state is political principles to the meeting, and afterwards they eveuld have to consider whether be was a fit and proper rerson to represeut the borough in the House of Com mons. It was his intention to grant tLe fullest discus sion as to the merits.of the candidate he was about to introduce, as such a course was the only one consistent with truth and justice. The Chairmt.n concluded by introducing Mr. Miall. Mr. Miam.., in rising to address the meeting, was re ceiv. with great cheering. He commenced by saying, that in all the addresses ho had made since the begin uing of the contest, he had put forward a question which had created much division of opin:on in the borough and throughout the county—he meant the Nlaynooth grant.—(llear.) He objected to that grant o n ieciple. If he thought that such a grant would :end to advance the liberties of the much oppressed Irish people, he would ineyit certainly have supported it. - But tie thought otherwise. He believed the main object of that measure was to stave off the redress of Ireland's erect grievance —the Established Church. Sir James Graham, himself, admitted that the grant would save that Church from the danger and Opposition to which it eves exposed.—(lbar, hear.) The r:nl object of the grant, which was bat the beginning of a series of similar measures, was, to detach the priests from the peoplp, and make the latter take the side of the oppressors against the oppressed.—(Cheers.)r,He was against all fie,tris of religious endowment whatever, as tending to subvert the liberties of the people. It was said that another candidate, who was earlier in the field than himself, (Sir Wm. Molesworth,) entertained similar opihions on this subject. In proving this he liked something b•stter that more abstract theory— he liked practice. Lord Jehu had uttered, in the House of Commons, some of the finest sentiments ever delivere in la: our of civil and religious liberty, yet no man had done things more calculated to do injury to th , practiell a, l;p.,.ttin of those principles than the :rent! Noble I, eil.—(:l, ar, hear.) Some beaer test :mist be given of th value of a Member than tine say ings. Let them put the question to the other candidate,' if he would, in the event of being elected, vote for the abolition, not only of the Irish Church E.stablisitmcnt, t,ut the withdrawal of all ecclesiastical endowments, anti the app!ication of the funds so regained to secular pur i,oss.—(Load cheers.) This would be the way to try hear.) He (air. Milli), at • L-'ast, was prepared to go that length ; and in the event of his election he would pledge himself to make a motion to that effect.—(Loull cheers.) The Honourable Candi ,ll.te ha , in , 4 stated hi, views at length on this nit et, went into the q , ;estion of the suffrage, i curing himself its favoor of univer4l suffrAge. with :he usual limitations. He had, he said, been charged ith disiding the Liberal interest. He called on those • ho talked about the Liberal interest so much, to define 4 hat that interest really was, and wherein it differed from Consrvatisrn. For the la,t few years. for his own part, tie saw little to choose between Lord John Russell and Sir Robert N'el:s Nearly every bad in asmire which the latter had proposed to subjugate the liberties of the people, the former hail supported. He saw no necessity for any alarm about dividin g ; that interest ; therefore he was For no compromise. ; and would be no part)' to any ar rangement involving a sacrifice of principle. lie came f)rward as a candidate, to aff.,rd a rallying point ,r the liberal portion of the liberal ekctors, and to -nal& the Dissent,rs to act consistc,ntly with their professions. He differEd with Sir William Molesworth not in degree, but in principle, and was willing to meet that gentleman face to face in discussion, and to maintain what he hid just advanced. Mr. Miall concluded amidst great applause. Mr. MILLER, an elector of Bermondsey, moved the usual resolution, that Mr. Miall was an efficient person to repre , ent the borough in Parliament. Th, Rev. Mr. BENSON seconded the resolution. As a Dissenter, he could not conscientiously support any of the candidates but Mr. MAIL Sir William Motes ,vorth's views on the Maynooth grant and th ,- ? new p 00.7- Lim were such as he entirely . difrered from. (low, then, could he consistently vote for such a man? Mr. JOHN GARRAT suppirted the resolution, in a speech condemnatory of the centralising policy of the Mr. VOIJME Y made some observations, regretting the division which at present existed in the borough. "'lle sas sorry now to be separated from the friends with whom he had formerly acted, but be was so from the ilepusiion that he was pursuing the wis,r course to serve the Liberal interest. Sir William Molesworth was the.best man that, under existing circumstances, c add be brought forward. Ile was a tried man, and one who had always acted honestly and consistently when in Parliament.—(Cries of " No, no," and cheers.) Mr. WEBB made a reply at some length to the re marks of the previous speaker. He declared himself fa.- voarable to the views of Complete Suffrage advocated by Mr. Miall, though not long ago his opinions had ma terially differed on this question. Several other speakers having addressed the meeting, the resolution was carried with but two dissentients. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, when, after a few parting words from Mr. Mial , the cu: ting dispersed. - • APPROPRIATE TRIBUTE.—A package arrived a few days sir•ce by the Dutch steam-ship Batavier, from Rotterdam, contending a silver cup, as a present from Mr. A. Ahlers, jun., of Amsterdam, the owner of the Dutch ship Jan Hendrick. recently wrecked on St. Paul's Rock, to Captain Roxby, of the ship Chance, as a small token of his estimation of the praiseworthy and heroic conduct displayed by that gentleman, by which a portion of the crew of the first-named vessel were saved from a watery grave. A certificate of her Maj..sty's Consul at Rotterdam accompanied it, declaring to the contents of the package, the rea'on of the shipment of the goblet, and the purpose to which it was intended to be applied, and a re quest has been made to the revenue authorities to allow it to be delivered, under the circumstances, to the recipient free of duty. Su distinct and appropriate a reward of merit is equally honourable to Captain Roxby and to the gentleman who so kindly and justly appreciates the gallant conduct of our countryman. The cup has inscribed on it an appropriate dedicative description of the cause of its presentation, &c. SUDDEN DEATH AT A TAVERN. —Tuesday Morn ing a man, whose name is unknown at present, walked Iwo the Swan Tavern, King William-street, London-bridge, alai asked for a glass of gin, with which he was served. Shore ly after lir! left the bar, and proceeded into the yard. A few minutes having elapsed, a loud noise was heard, and upon one of the servants going into the yard, the deceased was di s covered lying on his back in the water-closet apparently in a lifeless state. He was carried to St. Thomas's Hospital, where he expired from an attack of apoplexy. 'l HE WEATHER.—Since our last the weather has been rather more favourable than during the early part of the sweek—Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, thou4l2 occa sionally a little showery, presenting intervals ut strong and welcome sunshine. Yesterday a good deal of rain fell in the forenoon, but in the after part of the day the weather cleared up beautifully, with a breeze from the west, and an agreeable temperature. Some addi!itmal field, of oats and barley have been cut ; but as yet the re is 'toiling like a genera beginuing of harvest, and large of the poor Irish are wandering over the country unabl, t • obtain employin,nt, and generally in great destitntion. We observe some fine fields of wheat in the neighbourhood strwn ing the harvest hue ; but in many cases, where the crop is best, it is partial), laid.— acisgore Argus. A FATHER KILLED BY PLAYING WITH HIS CHILD.—On Tuesday forenoon Mr. G. I. Mills held an inquest at the King's Head, Lower-road, Islington, on the body of Thomas Owen, aged thirty-four, a porter in the employ of Mr. Tapster, lanulerd of the Craven Hotel, Craven -street, Strand. On Saturday afternoon last deceased was returning to London with his child, in a cart belonging to Mr. Ashley, • of 15, Strand, with the driver of which he was acquainted. They were in the Holloway-road, near the end of the Camden town-road, when the driver of the cart Wining round to speak to deceased, who was sitting behind him, saw him slipping off the back part of the cart. He pulled up, and found deceased lying bleeding from the head and neck, and barely able to ar ticulate "Oh, James, take care of my child !" The driver stated that deceased was playing with a young child that ac companied him, and in throwing it up with his arms, he be- i lieved the weight of the child caused the overbalancing • f the father, arid the fall from the cart. The child was unhurt. Deceived received prompt medical assistance, was conveyed to Islington, and died from concus.ion of the brain soon atter i the fall. Verdict, " Accidental death.'! oilair SLAVIt.Tit A. There has just been issued, agreeably to tlle order of the House of Commons, a series of neeourts (even is number), illustrative of costs inclirrtd, an,; r,solts !r''' duced, to suppress slave-trading. 1.

An annual estimate of the cost of each class, &e. 3. A return of the number of vessels ear Lured, seized, and proceeded against. The mere names , &c., occupy eight folio pagez of print. Attached to this account is the following memorandum respecting sums paid to foreign Governments, and debts due by them to Great Britain, which hare been cancelled, in conse quence of their relic quishment of the slave-trade : PORTUGAL. No debt due to the Government of Great Britain op pears to have been so cancelled ; but the debt incurred by Portugal for tho l oan r a i se d in Eigland, un , ler the convention of 1809, and with the sanction of the British Government, devolved upon Great Britain 10 consequence of the annulment of that convention by the slave-trade treaty of 1815. The particulars are briefly as follows : By - the treaty between Great Britain and Portugal, concluded at Vienna the 22d of January, 1815, the Prince Regent of Portugal agreed that, from and after the ratification and promulgation of that treaty, i/ should not be lawful fur Portuguese subjects to i ngegc, in the slave trade on the coast of Africa to the north t o the Equator ; and by the same treaty his. Britannic Majesty, on his part, agreed to remit, from the date la which the ratification of the treaty should be promul gated, such further payments as might then remain due and payable upon the loan of 600,0001, made in London for the service of Portugal, in consequence of the con' vention between Great Britain and Portugal of the 21st of April, 1809, which convention was declared to be void and of no effect. The treaty of January 22, 1815, was ratified and pro' mulgated at Rio de Janeiro, July 1, 1815 ; from which date, therefore, Portugal was released from the engage' ments which she contracted under the treaty of 1809, for the payment of the interest and sinking fund, and Nal. dation of the principal, of the loan of 600,0001, raised under that treaty ; and those engagements were trans' ferred to Great Britain. If the liberation of Portugal from this burden was MA in reality, the cancelment of a debt due by her to Greet Britain, neither were the payments consequent thereupon , strictly speaking, sums paid to a foreign Government; but the item will most appropriately be included under the head of payments. Assuming this to be the case, there will be to be added to the sums paid by Great Britain on account of the Portuguese loan of 1809—the sum of 300,0001, with interest thereupon, paid to Portugal, under the convert• tion of the 21st of January, 1815, and additional con• vention of 28th July, 1817, in discharge of claims for Portuguese slave vessels captured previous to the I s t of June, 1814, by British cruisers; and the amount also paid as indemnification, under the additional convention of the 28th of July, 1817, for Portuguese slave vessels captured between the Ist of June, 1814, and the instal' lation of the mixed commissions under the convention , viz., 265,1371 ss. I Id. SPAIN. By the slave-trade treaty with Spain, of the 23d ? f September, 1817, Great Britain engages to pay Spain 400.0001., on the 20th of February, 1818, as compensw tion for all losses sustained by Spanish subjects in COw sequence of the abolition of the traffic. Of the other returns, the seventh only requires special notice. It is a return of the expences of liberated Mr!' cans, and of the liberated African department, in each yor e ; from Dec. 1838, t o D ec . 1844 , i nc l u di ng b u i ld i ngs an d 9 " contingent expenses, so far as the same can be made out at the Audit-office, comprising maintenance, clothing , medical treatment, fuel and light, sal-ries, hire and q" penses of buildings, and other incidental expenses, A l n the colonies of Anti gu , a , B a h amas.

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS' During the first four days of the past week it was ' 6 most constant rain, and f rom T ues d ay to W e d nes d a y. rained so constantly and heavily, that every streamht brook and burn were swollen to the highest flood-rosy,: of winter.
