STATE OF TRADE. (From the ManchJsier Guardian.) MANCHEST2,R, TUESDAT.—We have to report a spiritless market, in which there has been a small eneral bias of prices in favour of the buyers, or, where this has not been the case, a somewhat greater facility at least in buying on the p rev i ous terms . In warps below 24's, and also in pin -cops, there is adecline of fully *d. per lb. from the highest rates of last Tues day. Many orders for these have now run out, or are near their termination, and fresh ones cannot be obtained without conceding something of the late advance, which, to a large extent, was merely nominal. The lower counts of water, in the bundle, end also No. 20's, have lost *d. per lb ; as have also mu!e from 30's downward. No. 30's reeled water twist is steady, but the buyer, not requiring imme diate delivery, is not quite so limited in his choice as he has been for some time back. Much the same ob servation is applicable to 24's and 28's warps. In the goods department it is found that domestics are steady ; while! in long cloths, T cloths, printers and shirtiogs, the seller cannot do so well in regard to price, as he did last week, or at least experiences greater difficulty in selling. But although the market is as we have described it, there i 3 no apprehension of much change for the worse in price. Great confidence is felt in this continuance of a good home trade ; and the present backward movement is regarded as nothing more than what is necessary in order to a renewed demand. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have little change to report in th' flannel market today, either in price or demand. This is the time of the year when the ma nutacturers are generally busiest; but all is very quiet, and the country orders are very limited. The wool market has been flat, and prices were about sta tionary. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—The demand for goods remains without alteration. Prices are steady, and pro duttion is going on satisfactorily, considering the ad vanced period of the season. In the meantime pre parations for the spring are beginning to occupy the attention of our manufacturers. The thrown silk market remains as about reported for the last month. It may, however, be assumed that prices are more in favour of purchasers, in consequence of the dragging state of the demand. In raw silks but little is doing, occasional offers are made at prices compatible with those of thrown, but hitherto without resulting in much business, merchants choosing rather to hold. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.--W 8 cannot report any noticeable variation in the aspect of the worsted trade, which is still in a very inanimate state. There is no sign of improvement in yarns, and the quantity of machinery thrown out of employment continues to increase. The sales of long wool are limited, and the quotations remain unaltered. Short wool is firm, on account of the shortness of the supply. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY. ---The market to-day has again been dull, no sales of importance have been effected; indeed the attendance of buyers has been slack. A little more business has been done in plaids and the thicker woollens for the winter season. There has been scarcely anything done in the wool market. NE W REFORM OF PARLIAMENT. (From the Leeds Mercury.) doubt be made that the su f- The preposition will • frege should b e universal, or at least sho u ld b e ex tended t o a ll householders. no We heartily w i s h th a t, by any reasona bl e stretchof charity, we could suppose the lowest class of householders to be generally qualified to use the franchise, with advantage, either to them selves or the community. Our principle would be to include all of whom such a hope could be fairly en tertained, and we would ra th er a d m i t too many then too few, because kno w l e d ge i s extending downwards, and there would be no danger from a slight excess of liberality. But we fear there is still a considerable proportion of the labouring class so entirely destitute of political knowledge, and even of any taste for public matters, so indifferent to religion and its ob servances, so low in their habits, so near the verge of pauperism, so hand-to-mouth in their living, so shift less yet ever shifting, that they must necessarily form a deterioating element in an electoral body, and even • an element of danger. Por men who are not intel lectually and morally qualified to use the franchise would in all probability abuse it. Not knowing the value of the privilege, they would be ready to sell it for money or beer ; in many cases they would im plicitly do the bidding of employers or parish over seers ; and all such tools would just neutralize the votes of so many independent and intelligent electors. There is also the danger of ignorant men becoming the dupes of political charlatans, possibly in some serious national emergency. We are sure no society of working men would allow their decisions to be overruled by men swept out of the streets and ale houses ; and to introduce such men to the exereise of the Parliamentary franchise would discredit the honest and thinking operatives, corrupt our consti tuencies, and emperil our legislation, without doing the slightest good to the individuals themselves. Our desire, therefore, would be to admit the steady and respectable part of the working classes to the fran chise, but to exclude the hand-to-mouth class, until their improved habits give some reasonable assurances to society that they would use the franchise well. Now if " every occupier of a tenement or portion of a tenement" were edesitted to the franchise, as is proposed by the "National Parliamentary Reform Association," a very large part of the hand-to-mouth class would be included. There should, therefore, in our judgment, be some restriction —either a certain length of residence in the same borough, or the bowl fide payment of rates by the occupiers themselves, or a certain amount of rent, or some other test adapted to sift off those who are not fit for the suffrage. Without this, the representation of the people and our legislation might be seriously damaged, and the elec toral bodies might be terribly corrupted. The extent of the franchise is the grand point in any change of the representative system, and we hope it will be considered by all classes in a calm, tempe rate, and conciliatory spirit, so as to unite Reformers i as far as possible, and to stimulate Ministers to a large and good measure, without disheartening them or throwing difficulties in their way by excessive demands. The " more s equal apportionment of representatives to populatio will be one of th e most difficult and delicate points for the consideration of the Ministry, of Parliament, and of the public. There are on the face of the present system very gross inequalities— such, for example, as boroughs like Westminster, the Tower Hamlets, Manchester, and Liverpool, with from 2 00,000 to 350,000 inhabitants each, returning only the same number of r epresentatives as boroughs hulike Buckingham, with less than 4,000, and Ayles !.y, Andover, Briciport, Dartmouth, &c., with popu lations below 5,000. It is very natural to wish that such inequalities should be rectified , and we should be glad if they 'could be, without introducing more serious evils. But in the first place, we do not think a mere proportion of Members to population would so well represent all the classes and interests of the nation, as a system which admitted a number of smaller constituencies. Next, we ould be y sorry to see London, with its sh ver population of 2,400,000, returning one-eleventh of all the Mem bers of the House of Commons, namely, about 60, out of eee. Vith such a body of representatives, all of them resident at the seat of Government, London twhoeulnationwould have a t rn l aureghe more . power is . for the good of But the chief evil to be appre- F , ended from adopting theu principle of mere numerical proportion would be, th it, in spite of London and the great towns, the borough p° illationwould be swemped by the agricultural poPpulation. the English by has from the first given Now much greater number of representatives to the boroughs materially then to the counties —a disproportion, however, very materially counterbalanced by the influence of landed proprietors in the smaller boroughs. At the present time the number of county Members is only 2,3 and of borough Members 405—giving a large superiority to the boroughs. Now the population livin g in the country and in small towns and villages, all directly or indirectly under the influence of the proprietors of the land, very far outnumbers the town population eve believe, at least in the proportion of 2 to 1. Therefore the adoption of the principles of mere numerical proportion might, and we firml y b e li eve "would, completely shift the balance of the Constitu tionweele swamp the manufacturing a com mercial interest by the agricultural, and hadttr-atic by the aristocratic.

TITF; bERBYSIBRE MARBLES AND SPARS VIIE INTF,RNATIONAI, Class The Derbyshire marble is not well represented in 1., the specimens merely consisting of a few black pte2s unpeli,thed, but prepared for the operation of the tar ner and his lathe. The mountain limestone of b;lshire, it is well known; contains some. beautiful '/If.rieties chiefly of black and encrinital marbles, which give em p lo yment to a great many persons in the neigh boirrhood who convert them into oruamo.otal articles. .Atnongst the mineral m anufactures in Cl ass XXVII. are many baautiful specimens of the Derby hire marbles THE SUN, LONDON, manufactured into tables, chimney-pieces, clocks, ink stands, vases, jars, candl-stick- , card -tae's, parr-weights, card-baskets, inlaid ciaess•boards, mosaics, models of obelisks, and pyramids, &c. &e. See Nos. 37, 38, 40, 76, and from 79 to 83, in Class XXVII. for Derbyshire marble worked up into these various articles. The Derbyshire alabaster or gypsum is procured from fissures in the mountain limestone (see specimens in No. 146, Class I) The famous Derbyshire fluor spar, cr fluoride of calcium, is a beautiful and interesting mineral also found in the mountain limestone associated with baryta, talc spar, and the ores of lead and zinc. The colours vary from amethystine to violet blue, with many beautiful shades of bluish and yellowish green ; and Professor Austad states that other colours may be arti ficially produced by heat and by sulphuric acid. Nos. 37, 38, and 40, in Class XXVII. contain many very beautiful articles manufactured from the fluor spar.— Builder. PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM. PANIES' STOCK.

(From the Revue des Deux illondes.) Of all the races which at this day occupy the scene of the world the most active, and that which possesses the greatest weight and influence, is unquestionably the Anglo-Saxon race. Other nations may be more noisy and brilliant than England and the United States—they may exhibit more external glory—but not one, if looked st closely, can be considered so necessary as both these people. The Anglo• Saxon race is one of the most im portant springs of the great political machine of the uni verse; without it it would perish, or bo abandoned to the contempt of the future some of the most important facts of history, and some of those moral notions which are most essential to humanity. Without England and America Protestantism would exist no longer. Had Protestantism no other support than that of Germany, we would see it now expiring in delirium and in blas phemy amidst the laughter of other nations. Without the example afforded by England the French revolution would not only be anathematised, but abandoned as without reason and full of incoherent extravagances. Had it not been for England, America would on its discovery have fallen back into the barbarism in which a Spanish vessel found it. It is owing to England that the glorious discovery of Columbus has not proved useless, and counts for a great human fact, and for a service rendered to moral order, and not merely a discovery interesting to science and cosmology. It is England who at this day prevents nations from falling upon and devouring ono another, and who maintains the equili brium of the Continent by the fear of having to measure strength with so redoubtable an adversary. Thus her very egotism is useful, for it protects our repose. It is her who crosses the projects of Oriental Europe, and says to the two Sclavi races—" Thus far shall ye go and no further." What a destiny 1 Her form and power are absolutely necessary to the moral order of the world. Let us lay aside all national prejudice and patriotic pride ; many nations of apparently more importance might disappear, and which seem to be more immedi ately interested in the maintenance of modern civiliza tion, but there is not one whose death would leave such terrible results as that of the solitary, the egotistical, and independent England. THE COUNTY COURT JUDGE OF LIVERPOOL. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY.-At the meeting of the borough magistrates yesterday, either seventeen or eighteen magistrates present, including Mr. Mansfield, the stipendiary, after considerable conversation, it was resolved that the Mayor be requested to commu nicate officially with the Home Secretary (Sir George Grey) and the Earl of Carlisle, putting them in possession of a digest of the recent proceedings, and asking their counsel in the present painful state of affairs. Th. :is morning, at the sitting of the County Court, Mr. John Whitty, son of the editor and proprietor of the Liverpool Journal, who was on Monday sentenced to flnes amounting to 151. and fourteen days' impri sonment in Lancaster Castle, was summoned for resisting the officers in the execution of their duty, on the occasion of the attempted arrest of Mr. Whitty, sen., on Saturday last. There were in attendance many of the most influ ential inhabitants of Liverpool ; and for some hours during the proceedings William Brown, Esq., M.P. for this division of the county, was accommodated with a seat on the bench, beside the judge. The interest excited was intense beyond description, from the knowledge of the fact that the whole of the men in Mr. Whitty's employment who were present on Sa turday when the bailiffs attempted to arrest that gen tleman upon Mr. Ramshay's verbal order, and the four detective policemen sent by the superintendent to preserve the peace on the occasion, had been served with summonses, and that the Commissioner of Police, with Mr. Clough, the superintendent, and several of the inspectors, were also in attendance. On the case being called on Mr. Dowling said he appeared to watch the proceedings, not to defend the police, in order that if anything wrong had been done by them the officers might be set right upon any future occasion. Sir George Stephen appeared on behalf of the de fendant, and submitted that as the summons charged him with resisting the officers in the execution of their duty, and as they were asked to show their authority,. neither of them having a warrant or even a written appointment, no offence had in point of law been committed. The Judge decided that the Act gave him the power to order into custody any one who had insulted an officer of the court, either in going to, or return ing from, that court; and he doubted whether he was empowered to issue a warrant at all. The Act autho rised him to " order" the arrest, but said not one word about any warrant. The order he had given was as valid as though written with his own hand, and sealed with the seal of the court. The Learned Counsel contended to the contrary, and maint a i ne d th at even the judges of the superior courts were not arme d w i t h such uncon stitutional powers as those claimed by his Honour. As, how ever, his honour ruled otherwise, he must request that a note of hi s o bj ect i on should be taken for ulterior proceedings. The Judge—l will tile a note of it, Sir George ; I always take a note of everything. His Honour then ordered Roger Charnley, one of the bailiffs concerned in the attempted arrest of Mr. Whitty, to b e sworn. His evidence was essentially the same in substance as that given on Monday, with this more explicit statement of the answer re turned by M r . W h i tty, sen., on the officers telling judge of they were or d ered to bring him before the of the County Court :—" When we found Mr. Whitty he refused to go, but said that if we produced a sum mons or a warrant he would attend immediately, and would wait an hour while he went back to the court and told the judge so. We returned, and reported this an swer , when the judge said, " Go and bring him here, you have my authority, and that is your warrant. " Then followed the resist ance which h as a l ready been described in the former evidence ; the bailiffs were given in charge, taken to the station-house, and when the su perintendent asked them for their warrant, they re plied they had neither summons nor warrant, and the superintendent thereupon told them they could not be assisted in taking Mr. Whitty without a warrant. The superintendent asked the bailiffs, after they were discharged, if they, in turn, bed any charge to make against the defendant ; to which both of them replied " No," adding that no blow had been struck on either side, and that, with the exception of young Mr. Whitty giving them into custody, and endeavouring to get them out of the premises, there was no assault committed. In cross-examination by Sir George Stephen, the witness said he was a bailiff, but he bad not his ap pointment in his own custody; he believed Mr. Stone, the high bailiff, had. Witness did not tell Mr. Whitty he was a bailiff, as he knew him to be an officer of that court. He did not know what he was to arrest Mr. Whitty for, nor did that gentleman inquire. There was no blow struck, nor did the defendant at tempt to strike any one. Had been a police-officer . before he w as a b a iliff , b ut had never been to a private house to arrest a man who was the owner of the house without a magistrate's warrant. By the Judge—Not in a case of suspicion of fe lony or any disorderly person, did you never arrest any one under such circumstances without a war rant ?—The witness replied that he bad never had occasion to follow a disorderly person into a house. He got their names and addresses, and summoned them before a magistrate. In a case of felony an officer mi g ht enter a house ; but witness always con sidered it was done at his own risk if the party should turn out to be innocent, and the grounds of suspicion were not very strong. By Sir George Stephen--Were there any grounds to suspect Mr. Whitty or his son had been guilty of felony or disorderly conduct? The Judge here interposed, and said that was irre levant. The witness was not to be asked about what ' was a point of l aw , b ut a matter of practice, and the question he had put to him was with a view to show that the judge of the County Court had done no more than the commonest policeman had done, in arresting people without a warrant. The next witness called was William Hartley, the other bailiff, whose evidence was mainly corroborative of that given by his companion. In reply to a ques tion from Sir G. Stephen, he said the defendant struck no blow, nor was witness pulled by him ; he inter posed no difficulty. Sir George Stephen hoped his:Honour would take a note of that answer. The Judge again replied that he always took a note of everything. Judge (to the witness)--Were you not assaulted with a knife ? Witness—The knife was held up in a threatening manner by Mr. Whitty himself; but his son had nothing to do with it. Judge--Was the son present ? Witness—Yes, your Honour. B y Sir G eorge S tephen—l have no appointment in writing, nor ever had. I believe Mr. Stone has. I have a paper, which I generally carry with me. [This was produced, when it turned out to be unsigned, un sealed, and undated.] Mr Whitty, jun., had no n knowled ge o f me as a 'Aa. A person named Joyce, who described himself as the to , r w oe a uo s rn r h r dee e c fI rt of e u:ptos h ur some ee t e c n at 's a collector of ac counts, and who accompanied the in e l 3 t e ther l m k box p e e n s n his% V o h e i t evidence, t w officers on th e occasion of the attempted arrest of M r .

The Judge held that the better course for the witness would be to proceed against those persons who had libelled him. The evidence of this witness was in the main im material.

He had been an agent of fie Court of Requests in Bristol, and had latterly been occupied i% getting in debts for persons in Liverpool and Birken head. He had had a card printed, "Agent to the County Courts of Liverpool and Birkenhead," but that was a mistake of the printer's in puaing " agent to," instead of "agent in," &c. Did not know what was voluntary evidence. He saw Hartley sign the book at the station.—[This was afterwards contra dicted by the superintendent, who produced the book.] The former judge of this court had, he believed, or dered the card he referred to to be impounded, and might have said witness must be looked well after. The superintendent of police, Mr. Clouch, deposed to the nature of the charge at the station. The examiner of the court proved the orders of the judge to arrest Mr. Whitty, when Sir George Stephen, in a powerful speech, ad dressed the court for the defendant, contending that there had been no offence, and that his honour had completely mistaken his powers, and exceeded his juris diction. He should regret uttering any sentiment derogatory to the character of the profession, but he maintained the right of the defendant's father to com ment fairly on the proceedings of that court. The defendant had not even bea❑ proved to have resisted the officers in what he (the Learned Counsel) would designate an illegal and unconstitutional attack upon Mr. Whitty in his own house. The Judge, in a speech of two hours' duration, re ferred to all manner of subjects, into which it would be utterly impossible in our limits for us to enter. He was twice affected even to tears, and the effect on the audience was of the most painful description. Up to the period of this report being dispatched no decision had been come to in the case. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) In concluding John IVhitty, jun.'s, case, his Honour (Mr. Ramshay) said he should impose a fine of 2/. for insulting Hartley, and 21. for the same offence against Charnley, or be imprisoned seven days in Lancaster Castle. He was also sentenced to pay 2/. each to the same men for obstructing them in the execution of their duty. There was no imprison ment added to the latter penalty, because he looked upon it as a debt recoverable by action, and if not then paid, the defendant would be liable to 80 days' impri sonment. If an action were brought, the damages might, or might not, be laid at 501., and he did not know that he should, if he tried the cause, be justi fied in cutting the damages down. The charge against the police officers was with drawn. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WORSHIP -STREET. Charles Jarmain, a horsekeeper in the service of Mr. George Page, a cab proprietor in James-street, Mile-end Old-town, was charged with the wilful murder of a man named Plimpton, a stableman in the same employment. John Marshall said, I am also in the service of Mr. Page as a labourer, and knew the deceased, who was engaged in the stables. About one o'clock this after noon I was busy in one of the lofts, when I heard the prisoner and the deceased quarrelling at a stable door on the opposite side. The deceased had a mop in his hand, and the prisoner had the stable-fork produced in his. Some more words ensued between them, and I then saw the deceased strike the prisoner with the mop across his shoulder; they were facing each other, and he struck him apparently as hard as he could. The prisoner upon that exclaimed, " I will stake the -- with this fork," but did not strike the deceased, and I went back into the loft, and did not see what afterwards took place. About a quarter of an hour af terwards, however, I had occasion to go down into the stable, and then saw the deceased lying upon the ground fainting and speechless. I lifted him up, but he could not utter a word, and I then saw that he was bleeding, but not profusely, from a wound in the breast, just beneath the nipple. The deceased had only his shirt on, and the prisoner, who was standing by his side assisting him, ran off for a small quantity of brandy, which he poured down the deceased's throat, but I still did not hear him utter a word. The prisoner, I, and another man then carried the de ceased to some clean straw, upon which we laid him, and I went to get my dinner, leaving the prisoner and another man with him. On my return I still found the deceased lying on the straw, whether alive or dead then I do not know, but he was perfectly still. The other man was at that time looking to the deceased, while the prisoner was getting his horses ready in the same stable, and he remained there for a whole quarter of an hour. A cabman and another horsekeeper then came in, when by their advice we took the deceased to the London Hospital, and upon searching about I found the fork the prisoner had had in an adjoining stable. The prisoner here incautiously asked the witness— Did you see what the deceased had done to me before I struck him with the fork ? The witness replied in the negative, and the magis trate directed the question and answer to be at once taken down by Mr. Vine, the chief clerk. Henry Taylor, a constable of the K division, stated—About half-past two this afternoon I re ceived information of the deceased having been killed by the prisoner, and therefore lay in wait at the end of the Bethnal-green-road to effect his apprehension. A short time after the prisoner came down the road with a pair of horses, and I immediately stopped him and told him he must go to the station-house with me. I was about to tell him what I wanted him for, but before I could do so he said, " I know what you want me for ; is he dead ?" I said I believed he was, from the inforinntionl had had ; a n d h e rep li e d , " He threw me down behind a kicking horse, and I therefore struck him with the fork, and it went into his breast." He then said, " Take me straight to the the station as soon as you can, but don't take me into the yard again." I was, however, obliged to take him to the yard, and then transferred hi m t o th e stat i on. Sergeant Curtis, 13 K, said.l went to Mr. Page's yard at two o'clock to capture the prisoner, but did not find him there, though he w as a f terwards brought in by the last witness, and I overheard him repeat the observation as to the decea se d h av i ng thrown him down behind a kicking horse, and his dealing him a thrust in return with the fork. The prisoner then added, " After I had struck him with the fork he ran me half-way round the yard, so that I did not think there was much the matter with him." When the prisoner first began to make this stat emen t I told h i m to be cautious what he said, as it would be used against him, and he cried very muc h and seemed very sorry. The witness produced th e i ns t rument w i th which the stab had been inflicted, an ordinary two pronged stable fork, the tines of which exhibited no stains of blood, as it had evidently been since used ; but the witness Marshall positively identified it as the one he bad seen in the possession o f th e pr i soner at the time of his quarrel with the deceased, and the former did not deny it. The fi rs t w i tness also added, in answer to a question, that though the deceased, on his way to the hospital, was perfectly s p eec hl ess an d rapidly sinking, he did not appear to be dead, but that directly after he reached that institution it was pronounced by the surgeon who examined him that life was extinct. The prisoner, who while at the bar seemed to be perfectly careless as to the evidence detailed against him, and afterwards went soundly to sleep on being locked up in the cell, offered no observations in reply to the charge, and, the witnesses having signed their depositions, he was remanded until that day week for the attendance of the surgeon to depose to the appear ances upon the post mortem examination. THE REGISTRATIONS. FINSBURY. TUE BRETHREN OF THE CHARTER-ROUSE. Yesterday morning Mr. John Fraser Macqueen, the barrister appointed to revise the lists of voters for the borough of Finsbury, again sat in the Vice-Chan cellor of England's Court, Lincoln's Inn, for the pur pose of giving judgment on a subject that has created considerable interest, and which, as it might affect many other institutio ns throughout the kingdom, he had taken time to consider. Mr. Leyton, for the claimant, and Mr. line, for the pariah of St. Sepulchre, were again in attendance. On takin g his seat , the REVISING BARRISTER de livered the following judgment :—By the 27th section of the Act passed to amend the representation of the people, the right of voting for city and borough Members is defined. The section enacts that every male person, of full age and capacity, occupying as owner or tenant any house, warehouse, counting- , house, sh op , or other building, of the clear annual I value of 101., within the limits of any Par liamentary City or borough, shall, if duly re gistered, enjoy the elective franchise. But this enactment is accompaaied by a proviso that no such person shall be registered unless he have occupied such premises for twelve calendar months next previous to the last day of July; nor un l ess where the premises are situated in a parish or town ship, rated for the relief of the poor, such person shall have been so rated in respect of such premises during such twelve calendar months, nor unless he sh a ll h ave paid on or bef ore t h e 20th of July all poor -rates and assessed taxes which shall have become payable from him in respect of such premises previous to th e 6 t h day of April th en next preceding ; nor finally, unless he shall have resided for six calendar months previous to the last day of July within such city or borougb, or within seven statute miles thereof. I suppose it may be judicially assumed that Mr. Banister is a male person, and that he is of full age and competent capacity. It is admitted that he occupies a house or other building of more than the requisite annual value within the borough of Finsbury. And it is clear that he does not occupy it as servant or bailiff to anyone, but as " owner or tenant" of the premises, that is to say, in the character prescribed by the 1 statute. It will follow, then, that if I now put Mr. Banister's name on the register he will become enti tled to vote for the election of a Member. But I am in terdicted frouidoing ao, uule3s I find that the requisitea prescribed by the proviso of the 27th section are satis fied. IN ow, it appeara in the frst 1 - ace that he h2s occupied the premises for twelve calendar months pre vious to the last day of Juiy, as required by that pro viso. It appears, in the second place, that the premises in respect of which he claims registration are not "situate in any parish or township rated for the relief of the poor." And consequently he neither has been, nor could have been, so rated in respect of such pre mises ; he is therefore within the exception of the proviso. It appears, in the third place, that no poor rates or assessed taxes had become payable from him in respect of such premises, the fact being, as I un derstand it, that this gentleman's chambers in the Charter-house are exempt from poor-rates, because they are extra-parochial; and from assessed taxes be cause they are either below the standard of taxation, or are saved from taxation, as " being provided for the reception and relief of poor persons ; ' so that in this respect no default is imputable to the claimant. In the fourth and last place, the statutory obligation of residence has been satisfied, Mr. Banister having for years had no other home but the premises in question. All the requirements therefore of the 27th section, both in the enacting part an d i n th e pr ov i so , seemed to be fully met and answered by the case of the claimant, unless there be something in his status as one of the brothers of the Cearter- house that must exclude him from the franchise. It is said he lives on charity ; so likewise do the fellows of a college. They live on charity, if by charity is meant the bounty of their founders ; but they are not on that account ex cluded from civil rights, or deemed incapable of exer cising the privileges of citizens. By the deed of foun dation, the eighty brothers of the Charter-house are to be gentlemen by descent, merchants ruined by the dis asters of commerce, or soldiers mutilated in the service of their country. From the moment of their appoint ment they are independent. They cannot be displaced or disturbed at the caprice of a governor. They seem to me to have a higher estate than is required for the purposes of this legislation. lam therefore of opinion that Mr. Banister's claim is well founded ; and 1 com ply with it accordingly. The name of John George Fraine Banister was then inserted, and the Revising Barrister having signed the lists, the business of the Finsbury registration was brought to a close. The result of this judgment will be to admit to the franchise eighty "poor brethren" of this establish ment. THE LIBERATION OF KOSSUTH. (From the Times.) SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY, OCT. I.—Louis Kossuth, the ex-leader of the Hungarian insurrection, is daily expected to arrive at Southampton. He will be accompanied by several military and civil officers connected with the Hungarian revolution during the epoch of 1849, and who have shared his detention at Kutahia, in Turkey. From the conflicting accounts which have been re ceived relative to the movements of Kossuth, it is doubtful whether he will land at this port from the American steam-frigate Mississippi (now on her way from the Mediterranean to Southampton), or whether he will come via Paris and llavre. It is most gene rally thought that the former route will be adopted, as, the Mississippi having been specially placed at the disposal of Kossuth by the American Government, and there might be some objection to his passage through the French territory, there is reason to be lieve that Kossuth will reach Southampton about Monday or Tuesday next from Marseilles via Gibral tar, although his positive departure from Marseilles has not yet been announced. The following is the copy of a letter addressed to the Mayor of Southampton by Lieutenant-Colonel Jhaski, the private secretary of Kossuth. It was re ceived last night : "Marseilles, Sept. 27. "Sir,—His Excellency Governor Kossuth (my chief), with thankful sentiments acknowledging the lively inte rest and the high-minded sympathy which the generous city of Southampton, and you, Sir, particularly, were on so many occasions honouring, with the Hungarian cause, the fate of its exiled leader, and of all Hungarian exiles who chanced to land on your hospitable shore, intrusted me with the agreeable duty to present to you, Sir, his hearty compliments, and respectfully to inform you that, embarked with the generous consent of his Majesty the Sultan, without any previous condition whatever, but rather with illimited liberty, on board the United States steam-frigate Mississippi, sent over by the Congress and Government of the United States precisely for his and associates' liberation from Kutahia, stopped at Mar seilles with the purpose to pass through France directly to England, and to land from Havre at Southampton, having the warm desire to thank personally for the pro tection which the public opinion of the high-minded people of England pleased to throw in the balance of his destiny._ " Arrived here yesterday, his Excellency immediately applied to M, le Prefet of this department to grant him and family free passage through France. M. le Prefet judged it convenient to report to Paris by telegraph to the Ministry, but the action of the telegraph being hin dered by the misty weather, answer has not yet arrived. " So, not being able to give you exact information about tho issue, or in case of granted passage about the time of his Excellency's arrival at Southampton, still I feel gratified to be the organ of communication of his said design, and of his firm intention to go, in every case, for some few days to England; which should he be not permitted to execute directly from Marseilles, he has decided to proceed immediately to Gibraltar, and hence to visit England and ask for an asylum to his childre❑ there, while he proceeds to the United States, to thank personally for the most generous aid and assistance which the people, Congress, and Government of the United States honoured him with. " His Excellency left Kutahia with the confident hope that the sacred cause which it is his glory to represent cannot fail to have a future yet, being honoured as it is by the powerful sympathy of the English race—that mighty, great, and glorious guardian of justice, right, and freedom in both hemispheres. have the honour to sign myself to be, with the most distinguished consideration, Sir, your humble and obsequious servant, "'TRASK', Lieutenant-Colonel. " To Mr. Andrews, Esquire, Mayor to the City of Southampton." The statements made in the above relative to the route of Kossuth do not accord with the intelligence which appears in the London papers this morning, to the effect that the Mississippi had touched at Mar seilles on the 2Gth ult. merely for coals and provisions, and that she left the same day, none of the refugees having landed. It is anticipated that, supposing Kossuth to be waiting at Marseilles for the reply of the French Government to his request for a free transit through France, his disembarcation was effected privately, and for political reasons. It may also be expected that the desired facilities will be courteously refused by the French Cabinet, as the arrival of Kossuth in Paris would perhaps be seized upon by the Liberal and Democratic party as a pretext for getting up a demonstration. Up to the present time Mr. J. R. Croskhy, the United Stated Consul at this port, has not received any official intelligence leading him to look for the arrival of the Mississippi, but it is understood that Kossuth is desirous of visiting England for a few days previous to proceeding to America. The people of Southampton intend to give the ex- Governor of Hungary and his co-sufferers in the Magyar cause a warm and hearty reception. The Mayor (Mr. Andrews) is exerting himself to get up a demonstration to greet Kossuth on his arrival in a most enthusiastic manner. The people seem disposed to second the efforts of the Mayor, but, as public banquets and receptions on anything like a grand scale are very expensive, we are not aware who will provide the means ; and it is hinted to us that a great indisposition at present exists among the inhabitants to subscribe for such a purpose. The liberality of the Mayor is, however, almost unbounded, and it is very likely that Kossuth will be the guest of his worship for a few days, and will be entertained with princely hospit a li ty . The subjoined address to Kossuth is being extensively signed throughout the town, and will be presented to him on his arrival. The Hun garian Committee in London is also deputed to visit Southampton to welcome the Hungarian leader ; and no doubt his landing on the shores of this country will be attended with considerable éclat. It is understood that Count Batthyany does not accompany Kossuth, but has proceeded to Paris to take up his residence there. " ADDRESS TO LOUIS KOSSUTII, LATE GOVERNOR OF HUNGARY. " Honoured Sir,—We, the undersigned inhabitants of the town and county of the town of Southampton, cor dially bid you welcome to the shores of Britain, where your name is well known and dear to thousands, as being identified with the same principles o❑ which the liberties, social order, and prosperity of this country are founded. "Be assured that the feelings with which we hail your arrival among us are designed to express something more than the ordinary formalities of civility. " We have been deeply interested in all the patriotic enterprises which your love of freedom ard truth so eminently contributed to originate, for the purpose of maintaining the ancient independence and free consti tution of your native land, and which your wisdom and disinterested energies for so long a time served to pro mote; and in your endeavours to obtain for them a suc cessful issue you have shared our sincerest sympathies, and been the object of our most constant and heartfelt solicitude. " We forbear alluding to the various causes which have hitherto interfered with your zeal and self-devo tion, but we cherish the firm persuasion that the victory you have sought is only postponed, and that there is an era to arrive in the history of Europe when the prin ciples for which you have contended will be recognized and established on a firm and enduring basis in that great and glorious nation of which you are the ornament and the boast. " We thank the Almighty disposer of human events for preserving you amidst innumerable perils, and we pray that wherever you sojourn you may enjoy that best of earthly portions which is set before the great and good of our race—the honest admiration of enlightened minds and the sincere affection of upright hearts; and that white an unanswerable refutation of the calumny of your enernie3 shall be furnished in the characteristic nobleness of your own soul, the most earnest ar.ii cor dial wishes of all the frier is of freedom may he realiz-rd by the extimded proloof2;ation of your life among them, in the full enjoyment of health, peace, and every other source of human happiness." suspected of evil projects, since in ail time and countries there exist such. But, alLizctigh the Sublime Porte has for a l.'ng time thought that it might liberate the refu gees without injury to any, yet it has not refused, upon representations made to it, to protract somewhat the period of their detention, a proof of the neighbourly feeling it cherished towards Austria. This alone did the Sublime Porte undertake in its engage ments with Austria—to watch over the refugees in ita own states, so long as any rekindling of insurrection was to be feared from them. But if, on the one hand, a friendly feeling lid it to undertake and fulfil that onerous task, the Sublime Porte expects, on the other hand, that, in consideration of such self•abnegation, the Aus trian Government will not claim indefinitely to prolong an unpleasant state of things, from which nothing but embarrassments and misunderstandings are to be appre hended. It thus, at length, the Sublime Porte has felt itself compelled to liberate the Menus at the beginning of September, this has not been without the complete conviction that, looking at the subjected state of Hun gary, no necessity for their further detention exists, and that the Porte has fulfilled its utmost duty, of which conviction the Imperial Court was informed without de lay, and its acquiescence in the same solicited. Con scious, therefore, that in no particular has it been wanting in its engagements, the Government of his Majesty the Sultan does not surrender the hope that after a candid reconsideration of tha facts, and a just appreciation of what must obviously be the desire of the Sublime Porte, to put an end to a situation fraught with difficulties and dangers, the Imperial Cabinet will attain to the convic tion that the Sultan cannot depart from the resolution he has taken. The following is the text of the diplomatic correa spondence between the Austrian Internuncio at Con. stantinople and the Turkish Ministry on the subject of Kossuth's liberation : " The undersigned representative of the Emperor of Austria at the Porte has already communicated to you the commissions transmitted through him from the Im perial Cabinet to the Grand Vizier and Minister of Fo reign Affairs, relative to the continuation of the deten tion of Kossuth and his most dangerous companions in Kutahia. The Minister may have seen from the contents of the communications exchanged on this subject what great importance the Imperial Court attaches to this matter, and that the Imperial Cabinet considers itself en titled to suppose that the detention can only cease after the joint concurrence of both Powers shall have been ob tained. Both his Excellency Redschid Pasha and his Ex cellency Ali Pasha have assured the undersigned that the contents of his communication would meet with due at tention from the Ministerial Council, and that the result would be made known to him as soon as it had received the sanction of the Sultan. How great, therefore, must have been his surprise when he learnt from certain sources that the Minister had given the chief of a certain em bassy the assurance that Kossuth and his dangerous companions would be set free in the middle of Sep tember, and that, in consequence of this assurance, the abovementioned diplomatists had made certain arrange ments in view of the journey the Hungarian prisoners were to make. These details have not been slenied by his Excellency Ali Pasha, and the undersigned finds himself under the necessity of renewing more vigorously his exertions in order to turn the Porte from a deter mination, which it has doubtless taken with , ,ut mature deliberation, and which it will, the undersigned hopes. abandon when it considers all the consequences that may ensue from the liberation contemplated. Before pro ceeding further, however, it will be necessary to call the attention of the Turkish Ministers to certain facts which should be noticed in order to a clear view of the matter in hand. The undersigned does not intend to detail the circumstances which led and caused the flight of the chief of the Hungarian reb-llion, although such details would give him an opportunity of offering nume rous points in reference to the demands of the Austrian Government, which the Porte ought instantly to grant. At the same time, he considers it superfluous to refer to the meaning and words of the treaties in force between the two powers, in virtue of which rebels and criminals who are Austrian subjects, and fly to Turkey, should not be harboured. In accordance with the spe cial wish of the Sultan, the Imperial Court abandoned its right to demand the extradition of the fugitives, although the meaning of treaties clearly gave him the necessary power in the case. But it is for this that the Austrian Cabinet must, with so much the more instance, dwell on the following clauses of the treaty of Belgrade, which (clause 18) says,—' When such rebels fly into the Turkish States with the intention of concealing them selves there, the Porte is to seek them out and cause them to be punished; and also when the said rebels and criminals shall show themselves repentant, and promise better behaviour, the Porte is not to believe them, but to detain them and confine them in a place distant from the frontier.' " I have the honour, &c., " Au PASHA. " Constantinople, Aug. 16." To this note the Austrian Internuncio forwarded the following reply : " With the deepest regret has the undersigned, Chargé d'Affaires of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria at the High Ottoman Porte, learned by the note of his Majesty the Sultan's Minister of Foreign Affairs, that the Go vernment of the Porte persists in its resolution to set at liberty, on the Ist of September, Kossuth and the other refugees at Kutahia, without considering the validity of the weighty reasons urged by the Government of his Imperial Majesty in favour of a prolongation of their confluement. The undersigned must repeat the protes tations contained in his note of the 29th of July, ad dressed to Ali Pasha, and at the same time hold the Sublime Porte answerable to the Austrian Government for all the consequences of the liberation of the said re fugees without the concurrence of the Imperial Court. "I have the honour, &c., "EDWARD KLEZL. "Bujukdere, August 18." " Nothing can be clearer or more distinct than this clause. Yet not only did the Imperial Court abandon its rights, confirmed in these declarations of the treaty, but showed itself inclined to come to an arrangement with the Divan relative to the confinement (internirung) of the fugitives. What did the Porte to further so friendly a disposition? She pertinaciously fixed a limit of a twelvemonth, and forced the Imperial Court to con sider as of non-effect the negotiations relative to a limitation of the period of imprisonment, and to take its stand upon the terms of existing treaties, namely, those which had previously been concluded by the two States under the hand of his Majesty the Sultan and his Ma jesty the Emperor, on the 26th Schewal, 1265 (Sept. 17, 1849), and those which were made between the Ministi r of Foreign Affairs and the Turkish Envoys accredited for that purpose in Vienna, with the proviso, that in case of need the clauses of these treaties would be en forced in all rigour. " This last proviso is made known more especially in a di-patch of Prince Schwarzenburg, dated March 19, 1850, which Count Stunner, then Internuneio, commu nicated to his Excellency Ali Pasha. What, indeed, does the note of the Porte itself, dated the 23d of Gemasil Evvel (the 6th of April. 1850), say, which serves as appendix to the above mentioned Acts? Why, that the Porte, in order to strengthen the cause of order in Hungary, expresses its readiness to come to a friendly understanding with the Imperial Court before it seta the captives in question free, and that the Imperial Govern ment should therefore express its views in the matter, and communicate its determination. THE COUNTRY MARKETS. " It is clear, then, that according to the declarations of the Sultan and of his Ministers, the meaning of these words cannot be understood by the Imperial Cabinet, or any impartial parties, in any other way than that the confinement (internirung) should cease only on the joint determination of the two Powers. The undersigned has on several occasions had the honour to hear the Turkish Ministers on this subject declare that in their soul the) had not doubts on this point; and his Highness R€dschid niche assured him at the commencement of last summer that the Porte did not intend to set the prisoners of Ku tahia free without the consent et the Imperial Cabinet. " And now what happens? The Austrian Cabinet de clares that order in Hungary has not yet reached that state when it becomes possible to let Kossuth loose with out danger to the peace of the kingdom. The Imperial Court considers itself alone competent to judge of the internal state of its provinces; but it assures that, as soon as the moment arrives, it will hasten to inform the Porte, and it will then make no opposition to the cessation of the imprisonment of the Hungarians. "In the meantime the Sublime Porte, under all man ner of pretexts, and taking up its position on an inter pretation of the agreement which has not been assented to by the Imperial Cabinet, resolves no longer to take account of engagements which it entered into in the most solemn manner, nor held the righteous and well grounded objections made to its proposed course. It persists in its intention to set at liher , y Kossuth and his dangerous companions at the very moment when his Imperial Majesty has sought to give to his sovereign neighbour new proofs of his wish to maintain a good understanding with him, in the nomination of Count Recbberg to the post of Charge d'Aff a i res i n Constan tinople. "On all these grounds, and in consideration that the Sublime Porte has proceeded so far as to commence the execution of its design of liberating Kossuth and his companions at Kutahia, the undersigned feels compelled to protest against the liberation of Kossuth and the other detenus of the atore-mentioned city. The under signed repeats his declaration which he took occasion to make on the 17th of February of this year, namely, that the departure of any of the detained persons from Ku mla:a without the previously obtained acquiescence of the Imperial Austrian Government will be regarded as a breach of the agreement concluded between Austria and Turkey upon the subject of their detention, and as an event which must draw after it the destruction of that good understanding which has hitherto existed between the two Governments. " It is impossible that the Sublime Porte can shut its eyes to the fact that by such a misapprehension of its duties (as well as of the dictates of a wise policy), such flagrant repudiation of its own assurances, such com plete obliviousness of all the proofs of real friendship evinced by the Imperial Government, which fill the annals of its history, the most painful necessities will be imposed upon this Court, arising out of its doubts of the sincerity of the intentions of the Sublime Porte, while finally such a proceeding as that now complained of will completely justify Austria, in presence of impending questions, to consider nothing but her own interest in her relations with the Turkish empire. " The undersigned has the honour, &c., LEEDS, SEPT. 30.—There has been a fair arrival of vessels from the coast into Goole, and the show of wheat this morning was consequently good. There was more desire to purchase, and generally more tone in the trade, and Friday's prices were readily obtained. Barley fully as dear. Oats and beans without alteration in value. Other articles as before. NEWCASTLE CORN MARKET, SEPT. 30.—We have no change to report in our market to-day, and prices re mained the same as on Saturday, with if anything rather more inquiry for old wheat. Grinding barley the turn cheaper. Flour slow of sale. Oats and other articles the same as before. " EDWARD KLEZL, " Bujukdere, July 29, 1851." The following is the reply of the Turkish Minister "or Foreign Affairs : " His Majesty the Sultan has token cognizance of the various verbal communications, and of the official note of July 29 of the present year, in which your Excel lency the CtiarLi d'Affaires has notified to me that the resolve of the Sublime Porte to set at liberty the Magyar fugitives now at Kutahia at the beginning of September has not the acquiescenc e of his Imperial Majesty. The friendship which has existed for centuries between the Sablime Porte and the Austrian Court, to maintain and confirm which is, even upon the ground of territorial proximity, so much the interest of both States—this friendship, upon which the Sublime Porte has always set the highest value, it has always sought to preserve by averting every occurrence that could cause its inter ruption. lam not able to express with sufficient force how greatly the Government of the Sultan regrets the difference of opinion which has lately divided the two Cabinets on the subject discussed in your last note. The Sublime Porte gladly entertains the hope that the Cabinet of Vienna will finally acknow ledge the frankness and honesty which have uni formly characterised its proceedings in this matter, and will put away all those prejudicial suspicions which, from the terms of the communication of July 29, it would seem the Imperial Cabinet was then inclined to enter tain. F or, i n f ac t, it i s not u n til a ll engagements taken by the Sultan's Cabinet have been punctually fulfilled, and after taking most anxious measures for carrying out the safe guardianship of the fugitives, that the Sublime Porte has determined to remove them from its terri tories, considering their detention no longer necessary. We find it hard to believe that any one can with fairness characterise this resolution as a breach of the engag, - roonts entered into with respect to the refugees. Your Excellency has taken occasion, in the note of July the 29th, to allude to ancient treaties, and also to the written assurance given by the Sultan to his Majesty the Em percr on this subject. But it is superfluous at this time of day to refer back to those old treaties, since the mr at explicit declarations have been long ago made to the Imperial Court as to the limits within which those engagements were and were not to find their application. As to the letter of the Sultan to the Emperor, it contains no more than the assurance that the refugees should go so guarded that it should not be in their power to disturb the tranquillity of his Majesty's dominions. The note addressed by the Turkish Cabinet to the Austrian Internuncio, April 6, 1850, to which your Excellency finally appeals, and which contains in the most explicit terms the promises of the Sublitt Porte, states that, ' after the restoration of order in Hungary, the Porte, before setting the Magyar refugees at liberty, will inform the Austrian Government of its intention, and endeavour to procure its sanction for the act.' Now, tranquillity has long been re-established in Hungary; and, it there are some f ew st i ll occup i ed with projects o disorder, yet are they not, by the express ad mission of the Internuncio, in a situation to excite an insurrection.
