MONDAY. THE LATE ELECTIONEERING RIOT.—At the conclusion of the routine business before the sitting magistrates (Thomas Clarke, Esq., mayor, and Robert Blunt, Esq.,), the following conversation took place on the subject of the military dis turbance, which occurred in the town on Saturday evening, between the bench and an elector of the borough. Elector—May I ask, Mr. Mayor, if any attempts were made, on the part of the police of the town, to take into cus . tc.,dv any of the soldiers who were guilty of committing the most flagrant assaults on the inhabitants on Saturday even- Tile MAYOR—I believe not ; but I was not there. Elector—Are you not aware whether the police were ordered to act or not? The MAYOR—As I was_ not :present: at the time, I really cannot say. Mr. Darvill (a member of the town council, who happened to be present) observed, that if the soldiers had not been there, there would have been no disturbance. Mr. Blunt—lt is certainly a great pity the soldiers were of barracks. Elector—Do you intend, Mr. Mayor, as the chief magis trate, to forward any complaint to the Horse Guards on the subject of the conduct of the soldiery ? Mr. Blunt—l don't think, Mr. Mayor, you ought to an swer that question. The MAYOR—If any complaint is made by the inhabitants to the authorities, it will be attended to. __ Mr. Blunt said the police acted very well in the business. Mr. Darvill repeated if the soldiers had not been there, no disturbance would have occurred. They ought to have been kept in the barracks. Mr. Blunt—We have nothing to do with that. (To the elector)—Were you there ? Elector—No, certainly not. Mr. Blunt—Then you arenot competent to give an opinion. Elector—l can only say, sir, that everybody who had a regard for life and limb was glad to get home safe. Mr. Blunt here remarked that he was present during same part of the disturbance in High-street and Peascod-street, and that he saw a soldier knock down a man near Mr. Adam's, the butcher, near the market. Mr. Blunt further observed that, seeing this occurrence, he went up to the sol dier, and said to him, "My good fellow, what are you doing? You are doing great harm to the colonel's cause, I assure you ; pray go home." Elector—But did you not give him into custody? Mr. Blunt—Oh, no ; I was surrounded by the limb. Mr. Blunt then observed that he had been to the barracks to intimate if the military were required they should be in readiness. The MAYOR, after observing that it had been rumoured another row was expected to take place last night, and that he had in consequence of the report remained in the town till past ten o'clock, the conversation dropped. FRENCH COMMERCE. The usual analysis of French commerce has recently been published by the Customs Department, giving the results of the year 1844. In reading this analysis it is always necessary ' to bear in mind the signification of the words "general" and 'special." With respect to importation "general commerce" includes every article imported, without regard to its origin or destination, while "special commerce" only includes arti cles entered for consumption in the kingdom. With respect to exportation, "general commerce" includes all exported articles without regard to origin; while "special commerce" includes solely goods produced at home, and those that have been naturalized by the payment of import duties. The general commerce of France during the year 1844 has amounted to 2,340,000,000 f., exceeding that of 1843 by 161,000,000 f. or 7 per cent., and exceeding the average of the five preceding years by 248,000,000 f., or 12 per cent. The increase is much more on exportation than on importa tion. The foreign produce entered for French consumption amounts to 867,000,000 f, showing an increase of 3 and 11 per cent. on a comparison with 1843 and the five years' average. The French produce exported abroad amounts to 790,000,000 f., presenting on the two comparisons an increase of 15 and 14 per cent. Considering the trade as it is carried on by sea and land, it is found that the commerce by sea amounts to 1,658,000,000 f., and that by land to 682,000,000 f.; that is to say, the sea commerce is more than two thirds of the whole. Compared with 1813 and the five years' average, this is an increase of 6 and 10 per cent. for the sea commerce, and 12 and 17 for the land. Of the total amount of goods carried by sea (1,658,000,000 f.), as much as 764,(00,000f. has been carried in French bottoms, and 894,000,000 f. by foreigners. This gives an increase of 6 and 11 per cent. for the French, and 6 and 9 per cent. for the fo reign flags. The countries with which there has been the most trade are the United States, England, Switzerland, Sar dinian States, German Zollverein, Spain, Algeria, and the co lonies of the Antilles and Bourbon. These countries are set down for 72 per cent. of the total amount of imports and ex ports combined. In 1843 the proportion of these countries was only 69 per cent. Compared with 1843 trade with the United States has increased 12 per cent., with England 4 per cent., with Belgium 15 per cent., with Spain 26 per cent., and with Algeria 46 per cent. The goods imported into France from England in 1844 show, as compared to 1843, a decrease of 3,000,000 f. to general commerce, and an increase of 5,000,000 f. to special commerce. The United States are set down at 143,000,000 f., of 12 per cent., in the total " ge neral commerce of importation ;" and at 184,000,000 f., or 15 per cent., in the total " special commerce of importation." England figures at 145,000,000 f. for the general, and 91,000,000 f. for the special commerce. The exportations to the United States amount to 161,000,000 f. for the general, and 102,000,000 f. for the special commerce. This is an in crease as compared with 1843, but does not equal 1839 and 1841. The movement with respect to England is analogous. The value of importations in 1843 amounted to 141,000,000 f. and 87,000,000 f., and in 1844 exceeded 143,000,000 f. and 99,000,000 f., these amounts being still inferior to those of the three first years of the five.—Times. FEARFUL COLLISION ON THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. WALTHAM CROSS, MONDAY AFTENOON.—In addition to the brief account which has appeared of the serious collision which occurred on Sunday morning last near the Waltham cross station of the Eastern Counties line, the following par ticulars were gleaned this day : From several conversations with parties who were eye witnesses of the occurrence, and others who were called to the spot a few minutes after the accident, it appears that shortly before five o'clock, A.M., a train of luggage waggons drew up in front of the Waltham station, having been some time detained on their journey by the failure of one of the wheels of a goods' truck. When the injury was fully examined, it was discovered that some time must elapse necessarily before the damage could be repaired, and there being no means of removing the heavily-laden waggons from the up line of rails, and the mail-train being nearly due, it was considered necessary to send down the line one of the servants of the Company, to telegraph the engine driver by means of a red signal light. To this precaution, however, no attention appears to have been paid by Young, the driver, inasmuch as the train rushed forward with speed, and ran into the luggage-waggons with fearful violence. The consequences were fearful. The engine Young was driving (a new locomotive of great power), which had only been sent for the purposes of the line two days. was doubled up, and the funnel, fire-box, and woodwork literally torn to pieces, while the pistons and minor machinery connected with the driving wheels were wrenched from their rivets, and the iron axles of the wheels were bent considerably. One of the second-class carriages, fortunately an empty one, was hurled from the line, and it now lieS a wreck near a ditch by the side of the line. Another carriage, in which were seated Captain Lawrence, R.N., and Mr. Fisher, a drover, from Norfolk, was broken up, and unfortunately both of these passengers were injured. The engine-driver and stoker were hurled from the engine, but falling into the water and soft mud of the ditch, they escaped uninjured. A truck, filled with sheep and lambs, was also smashed and partially set on tire, and not less than twenty of the animals were killed, and others of them so injured, that it was found necessary soon afterwards to slaughter them. The confusion and alarm which prevailed is described as being fearful, and the vio lence of the shock was so much felt throughout the whole train, that all the passengers were more or less shaken. The rails were torn out of their places by the violence of the shock, and the line was literally strewed with the mangled remains of the sheep and the corn, &e., the contents cf the broken luggage-trains. Some little degree of order being restored, the attendants with lights examined the wreck : fortunately no one was found killed by the collision, but the above-named persons were so much injured that they were unable to proceed to town, so they were conveyed to Mr. Wildbore's, of the New Inn, who most hospitably and humanely attended to them, whilst medical assistance by special train was procured from London. Dr. Jarffeson having seen the patients, declared the arm of one to be dislocated, and the other to be severely injured by the violence of the shock. He, however, in neither case ap• prehended any seriously alarming consequences. As soon as the confusion had subsided, a dispatch was instantly forwarded to Ilroxbourne (the depot of the pilot- eng i ne ) for assistance, and as it is the practice to keep the locomo— tives ready there at all hours for immediate service, but little rime was lost, the damaged wheel was repaired, and the mail train set forward on its journey to the Shoreditch terminus, all the passengers, except the two previously named, being able to travel the remaining distance (14k miles). As soon as daylight dawned, a strong body of men set to work by Mr. Kennaird's and other directors' orders, proceeded to clear and repair the rails, but no carriages were allowed to pass along the up-lin3 during the whole of Sunday, the whole of the trains " up" running oa the down-line from llroxbourne. It must be said that every possible attention was paid by the authorities to the sufferers. _ Upon inquiring this afternoon (Monday), it was ascer tained that both the injured parties, though seriously hurt, are in a fair way of recovery. The engine-driver states, by way of justification, that he did not see the signal light ; the guard, however, sa}•s he saw it two iniNs from the station. It is the determination of the Directors to institute a most rigid investigation into the cause of the accident as soon as possible, and if any blame is found to attach to their servants, to punish them accordingly. POLITICAL GOSSIP 1N DUBLIN. (From the Dublin Evening Post.) This journal was the first which noticed the report of serious differences amongst the members of her Ma jesty's Government. We did not say we had the rumour from official quarters—such an assertion would be lu dicrously absurd. We only stated the rumour prevailed in circles likely to be well-informed, and we gave it ac cordingly. From that period (about a month ago) to this, the story has been reproduced in a hundred shapes—some of which we have noticed, as they turned up in print. But, we do not remember that we have seen before such a distinct —may we not say, such an emphatic confirmation of our original statement, as we find in the following paragraph, which we copy from the Evening Mail of last night—the local organ, we should infer, of the Castle, but, as in duty bound, the enemy of her Majesty's general Government. IVe give the article as we find it, without curtailment : THE UNITED CABINET ! THE HAPPY FAMILY ! ! We are enablod, upon authority that has never yet mis led us —or, through us, our rerders—to publish the fol lowing important communication, the authenticity of which is intitled to implicit reliance : "LONDON, WEDNESDAY.— Each recent meeting of the Cabinet has tended to increase the difficulty of union amongst the members, until the scenes now consist of criminations and recriminations—dissension and differ ence—upon each particular point brought under discus sion, and great bitterness of feeling on all sides in the conduct of the argument. The heads of parties—for the division is of a character so decided as to require leaders —the Duke of Wellington upon the one hand, Sir Robert Peel on the other. On Monday Lord Stanley openly joined the Duke. There never has subsisted a , good l. un derstanding b e t ween h is L or d s hip a nd the reinter. The consequence of this junction is, Sir Robert Peel has been left in a min ori ty o n t wo m o s t important divisions —the one in reference to the opening of the ports, the other as regards the occupation of Chusan. It was de ci.led by a msjority, against the Premier's propesilieri' that the ports should not be opened for the imports; tion of f/roign corn (i.e., general grain crops)/ bt! that rice and Indian corn should be admitted at 10°1 : ns.l duties. With respect to Chusan—you ma y and upon it that Sir Robert was left in a minority ; that the policy to be pursued henceforward as t o Fratle° • W2S decided upon against his views, and that the oce_l: pation of that portion of the Celestial Empir e will PI e , ded. Sir Robert Peel is in a very delicate state ° f . h. alth, and looks worn and haggard beyo nd belie • This is the first time he has ever had an attac k of gou.t.! and it i.; not c. - nwealed amongst his adhere ntsW place-hunt.xs—that it has been brought .on by , 1113 u" S a i ; shiest; or mind, and the pressure from without, b at. home and abroad. His situation, politically a nd Pe" sonally, is precarious and forlorn ; for he has left bile; self without a political supporter upon principle/ o r private friend from feeling. What might he not he r been ? What is he ? A Minister despised and de' serted !" The paltry spite, towards the conclusion of the pall; graph, against Sir Robert Peel, is so Bet:wish—sole so offensively of the shop—is so vulgar and so untssev —that it would excite a doubt in our minds as t o the en: tire statement, if there were not indications from otbo_ quarters which satisfy us that there is something. rotteill, in the state of Denmark. We do not think, 1 0 that Chusan has anything to do with the matter, age' with regard to the peddling about Indian corn and excluding the higher grains, we look upon this el . rate and minute information as mere rubbish. The _ ference—if such there should be, as we believe the re did not turn upon any huxtering point of the kind, h t. .° on this broad one—namely. whether the ports should e' open to every kind of bread stuffs or not. We say, we believe there are difficulties in the %.,--11;_bi. net, not upon the apocryphal and tainted authority fore us, but on the plain and uudeniable fact , t hat the' ei have been four meetings of the Cabinet with in that d —a thing, we believe, almost unprecedented —and no action has resulted. It is evident, that if the (ligr e , tion, as we suppose it to be, had reference chietif f ora this menaced famine, Ministers would have acted bd% this time, if serious differences had not taken P l 7; Tney would have directed the ports to be opened by, order in Council—or issued a proc l ama tion for the V i t t • mediate assembling of Parliament. We do not say tu-e, either would be free from embarrassment and ineo° l One nience—but the pressure is. we hold it, irresistible - e course or the other must be adopted, if not by the Pr i sent Cabinet, by its successors. • MINERAL SUR tTEY CANAD it.
