The distance by sea from Liverpool to Ainerica as far as Valenta, the usual route, is about 500 miles ; from London to America as far as the same place is 800 miles. By railway a communication may be effected between the last-named places in about thirteen hours, and the voyage from the latter place to Halifax in seven days: so that Valenta will not only become the port of intercommunication for American vessels outward and home ward bound, but also the great seaport between the continents of Am,ric x and Europe, and consequently an incalculable amount of Amer:ea.

The experimental squadron will leave on Tuesday A portion of the squadron was paid ad vance wages this morning. The target practice has been conti nued daily, and on the whole has been good. Commodore the Earl of Yarborough intends accompanying the squadron throughout the cruise, in his yacht, the Kestrel, which has shipped six months' provisions for the cruise. The Black Eagle Admiralty steam yacht, Master-Commander Cook, was yesterday employed in conveying the Duke of Buccleuch and a distinguished party from Ryde into this harbour, when they went on board 'and inspected the Victory and the royal yacht, and afterwards the feet at Spithead. The Lightning steam-yacht, Master-Commander Pettey, took out Lord Adolphus Fitzclarance and a distinguished party yester. day to inspect the fleet. The Siren, 16, Cemmander Edgell, was inspected and paid the usual advance wag s yesterday at Spithead, by Captain Moubray, of the Victory, and sails to morrow for the Mediterranean. The Monkey steam-vessel, Master Commander Bryant, came round from the river on Monday, with the baggage of Vice-Admiral Sir Wiliam Parker, which she transferred to the Hibernia, and left on her return on Tuesday. The Rattler, 8, screw propelled stearn-sloop, Commander Smith, came into harbour to coal on Tuesday. She rejoined the squadron at Spithead again on Wednesday. The Fairy, screw steam.tender to the royal yacht, arrived yes. terday morning from the river. She attracted considerable attention on coming in. She appears a very beautiful craft, and in every way worthy of the distinguished service she is destined to be em ployed in. Her speed was the subject of universal surprise and admiration. The Seaflower, 6, Commander Robilliard, arrived on Tuesday night from the Channel Islands. The Ferret, 6, Commander Oake, was in lat. 45 5 40 S., long. 11 30 E., on the 6th of May. A private letter from her states : " Yesterday we bad a long and anxious chase after a small Wigan tine, and lost sight of her after dark, but fell in with htr again at daybreak this morning, and shortly after detained her for being equipped for the slave-trade, having on board a large quantity of water and provisions. She is called the Conceicoa Felix,' is of about 70 tons, 46 days from Rio. The people say she was intended to carry 350 slaves." The Collingwood, 80, Captain Smart, flag of Rear-Admiral Sir George Seymour, the Commander-in-Chief, was at Callao on the 10th of April. She was preparing to leave on a visit to Ota heite, where she expected to arrive early in May. All were well on board. Lieutenants Hawkey and Pym, of the Royal Marines, the par• ties in the late fatal duel at Gosport, were in Portsmouth this morning. Fowrsmovrn, FRIDLT.—Nearly the whole of the squadron ex. ercised this morning in target practice, which was very good. The effect was grand and imposing, the dark clouds which hung over the Isle of Wight serving to throw cut into bolder view the effect of the firing from the shore, which drew some hundreds of persons about T he o r n ti e u a olc ro l o n c k w . p i 1 . 1 ,4 p . 0 , s a i to the sailram o p n a ramparts s u t e o s d w a i y t n i e e s x s t t , h a e t o s spectacle. near s possible in order to get under weigh upon the top of the flood and take the ebb tide when out,ide the Nab. Each ship will carry to sea flee months' provisions. The additional men ordered for each ship are ready to be embarked. The Hibernia, 100, Captain Richards, will not start with the squadron, but will leave Spithead on Wednesday, the 10th. Vice- Admiral Sir William Parker, Bart., will arrive on that day, and leave the Gosport terminus of the railway direct for th e ship, which will get under weigh and proceed direct for the port of the gallant admiral's command—Malta. T he remainder of the squadron left unpaid yesterday were paid advance wages this day, except the St. Vincent, which will not be paid until the return of the squadron. The ships and vessels which will actually get under weigh from Spithead on Tuesday will be the St. Vincent, 120; Trafalgar, 120; Queen, 110 ; Rodney, 92 ; Albion, 90 ; Ca nopus, 84; Superb, 80; Vanguard, 50; Rattler, screw steam aloop the Victoria and Aibert royal yacht, and her tender the Fairy; the Admiralty yacht the Black Eagle; the Lightning dram-Yacht, and Commodore the Earl of Yarborough's brigantine Kestrel, leading a dozen other yachts of the royal squadron Should wind and weather prove propitious, the scene of getting under weigh will be one of the mast imposing sights ever wit nessed here.

'doming 31 minutes after 6 I Evening .. 54 minutes after 6 The Earl of CLANCARTY presented a petitios from the Irish Great Western Railway Company, denying the allegations made against them in a petition, which he NI presented the previous evening. I,,rdships then went into a long discussion on the subject of th.a proposed New Standing Orders, on the subject of Railway Bills, and in the course of it, The Earl of DaLuotnant took occasion to explain and defend the course pursued by the Board of Trade on this subject. Lord BROUGHAM moved that his resolution, requiring that the promoters of a new railway should pay the costs of an opposing landholder, be adopted as a new standing order. This propos i t ion was opposed by the Earl of Wicm.ow and other Noble Lords, and after some discussion it v‘ as withdrawn, for the purpose of being again submitted on Monday next. Several 13111 s on their Lordships' table were then ad vanced a stage, after which the House adjourned. The Commons met at Twelve. Lord ASHLEY moved the order of the day for the House going into Committee on the Lunati•s Bill. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE, by moving that the Ilse be counted, and afterwards by m ving the adl)urnment, endeavoured to defeat the measure, but without effect. The lion. Gentleman then moved the postponement of the Bill until next session. This amendment was de feated by a majority of 65, the numbers being—for the amendment, 1; against it, 66. It was ultimately arranged that the Committee should be take❑ on Tuesday. The House re-assembled at Five o'clock, when Mr. HAwEs postponed his motion on the subject of the Danish claims until Tuesday week. Sir JAMES GRAHAM moved that the House do resolve itself into Committee on the Poor Law (Scotland) Amendment Bill. Mr. IIuME thought the Bill ought to be postponed to next session. Mr. EWART was also in favour of the postponement of the measure, _ _ . A hug discussion followed, in the course of a hich the House was ad tressed by Mr. STEWART, Sir JAMES GRAHAM, Mr. E. ELLICE, Mr. Ross, and other Hon. Members,' but eventually the House went into Com mittee ou the Bill, and clauses 35 to 55, after consider able discussion, were agreed to. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at half-past One o'clock. We confidently anticipate that Lord ASHLEY'S Lunatic Bill will be postponed till next session. Owing to the determined opposition of Mr. T. DUNCOMBE, the fur ther consideration of the scheme was deferred yesterday till Tuesday, when it is to go into Committee. We there fore earnestly intreat the attendance of Members at the early sitting, in order that they may judge for them selves, and not trust either to the well-known humanity of the noble author of the Bill, or to the savings which it may effect as compared with the present state of the law. The expense, in fact, ought to be thrown entirely out of the question, for the amount, even supposing the plan to be carried into effect on the most liberal scale, would be nothing when weighed in the balance with the vast benefits that may be conferred not only on the insane, but on persons of sound wind, liable to be impri soned at the bidding of mad doctors. We regret, there hire, to find that Lord ASHLEY dwells more upon the saving of money by the new plan than on the great object which he ought to have in view. The expense of the present Commission, it appears, would, if allowed to go on for a few years, reach 25,000/. a yea?, while the esti mated cost of the new Commission would not amount to 13,0001. The difference hardly deserves notice, yet on thiapoint his Lordship dwelt fur nearly one-halt of his speech. But heaving that, let us see what are the improvements contemplated. It begins by esta blishing a permanent Commission, and thereby, accord ing to Lord A SHLEY, secures the entire services of comp. tent persons and fixes the limits of expense. It places hospitals or subscriptiim asylums under proper gulations, by requiring them to have the same order s and certificates us were necessary in licensed houses and by subjecting; them to the saute tisitation us county asylums. It pre% ems permit's of weak mitel from being received in usy lums in the character of boarders, in which case they have not the benefit of any visitation, and are sometime s induced to execute deeds affecting their property. It provides en additional security against the improper detention of pauper patients, by requiring that the person signing the order for their confinement should see and personally examine them beforehand ; and that the medical ofliser who certified as to their insanity should see them within seven days previous to their confinement. It compels every person receiving a patient to state his condition when first admitted, and the cause of his death when he diet. It directs every injury and act of vio lence happening to a patient to be recoreed, and re-. quires a " case book" to be kept ; thereby affording additional security against mismanagement, and showing how far the patients had the benefit of medical treat merit. It proiides against the liberation of dangerous patients. It authorises the visitors to enforce a proper supply of food (in licensed houses) to pauper patients, who were at present led at the discretion of the proprie tor. It enables the visitors to order the admission of a patient's friends to visit him. All these regu lations, w e admit, are unobjectionable, but they are far from going to the root of the evils The same medical certificates are to be used as the war rants for commitment, and, therefore, interested parties will still have the power of imprisoning relatives whose property would accrue to them after the death of the unhappy victims. But oppression will drive a wise man mad. What will be its effect, then, on sensitive minds, harassed by grasping and unfeeling relatives. The in cessant annoyance's of persons of this character have, it is well known, driven many to such a state of excitement that medical men are called in to effect their cure—and the only cure they generally recommend is confinement t : in a madhouse. As r e gards the visits of Commissioners. medical profession or not, v ‘w a . • h h e a e tt looke h v e e r r upon n thegth ing i s b soe rty of a f e ll ow - creature . I t i s we ll known that the cruel treatment inflicted by keepers, the dreary prospects of confinement, and the persecution of interested relatives, cause a degree of excitement in per lipec the iius safeguard as no s e curity sons of nerveus habits which to strangers would appear a species of madness, and this can easily be induce d by those who have an interest in their imprisonment. The return proposed to be made to toe LORD CHANCELLOR is of no use whatever. The Commissioners are to report the number of their visits, the patients they have seen, and the miles which they have travelled. This may be a very necessary return as regards pounds, shillings, and pence, but it is no security against the evils of which we complain. 'The great cause of all the succeeding misery is the first conanitinent, and on that point :he Legislature should be as jealous as they are of the liberty of the subject when it is invaded by unjust im prieenment. Many sane permt's have been confined as l un atic, ; Mr. PHILLIPS is a glaring instance, but he could not have obtained redress in a court of law, as the person whet signed the certificate would hate been regarded there as a privtleged character. Never eas the're more cruel mockery than this. In our opinion the only real security is an investiga tion by a jury of twelve men in open court, ashen the motives of all parties can be sifted, and the facts of the case laid before the world. English men would undergo much trouble, and pay any amount of expenses, rather than see, what so often occurs, a fellow-creature unjustly committed to the horrors of a madhouse, and as Mr. DUNCOMBE observed, -' Better that nineteen insane persons should go free than that one rational being should be shut up under theplea of in amity." The Madrid Gazette of the sth instant contains a circular to the political chiefs, signed by the Minister of the Interor' directing the Provincial Councils to be constituted by the Ist of August, prescribing the form of oath to be taken on in stallation, and stating the amount of salary each councilk.: will receive—in provinces of the 3d class, 8,000 reals (80/0 yearly; 2d ditto, - 9,000 (900 ; Ist, 10,000 (100/0 ; and in Madrid, 12,000 reals (1200 The papers bring no news of importance. The heat at Madrid is described in some of them as insupportable. The Funds were very flat. There was a decline of 1 per cent. in the Three per Cents. for cash on the sth, and 15-16 for time. They were quoted at 284 cash, and 294 at sixty days; Fives, 21 cash, and 21 for the sth of August; Pas sive, GA cash. The Paris papers are still occupied with the affair of the French Jesuits, of which enough has already been said. One of them states that the Government has called upon the pro fessors of the College of France to take measures to oblige M. MICHELET and M. QUINET to keep in their lectures within the scope and ,object for which the professorships held by them were instituted, and that the professors are to meet to consider the subject on Sunday. This refers to the attacks occasionally made by these professors on the French clergy. The political news is without interest. An accident happened to Marshal SOULT on Wednesday, which at first threatened serious consequences. While passing along the Quai d'Orsay, when opposite the barracks, the hind uxletree of his carriage broke, the off-wheel came off, and the carriage fell on -its side, in which position it was dragged for some little dis tance before the coachman could stop his horses. Th e foot man was thrown fr o m behind, but , being unhur:, be ran to his master's assistance, and o p enin g the carriage-d ,, or found him lyi ng w ith his feet upwards. The M a r s h a l h a d received only a few bruises, an'! was able, leaning on the arm of his servant, to walk on to the Tuileries, where the medical men in attendance thought it prudent to bleed him. The KING was present at the operation, and afterwards had the Marshal taken home in one of the royal carriages. The Presse, in reference to the last quarterly returns of the British revenue, greatly blames the illiberal policy of the French Government as re-pects trade; but, in fact, the Cham bers are entirely in the fault : " The able chief of the English Cabinet has rendered an immense service to his country by making such bold and decisive improve ments in the fiscal system. Timid minds. incapable of moving out of the beaten track, have condemned them as imprudent and ven turesome. They have exclaimed against him as having lost the suostance in catching at the shadow, and placing the future finance of England in a state of frightful perturbation. But none of their sinister predictions have been realised. On the contrary, the finances of England have never been in a more Nourishing state, and her trade and commerce, thanks to his reduction of the duties on raw material, and on the principal articles of consumption, have extended to a degree hitherto unknown. May this grand expert. ment be maturely weighed—may it teach our statesmen and our Chambers how productive may be a judicious application of true principles of political economy." The National is highly indignant at the escape of " an illustrious personage, crowned with the laurels of Parnassus, and invested with the ermine robes of the Peerage," and as serts that the Peers have failed in their duty.

UNITED STATES. LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY NIGHT. We have another arrival here to-night from New York— the Rochester, Captain Woodhouse : by her we have papers from that city to the 22d ult., four days later than were brought by the Shakspeare. The Rochester made her pre sent voyage in the short space of 19 days, and brought 20 passeng( rs. The papers brought by her contain no political news of importance. Nothing of a decided character had transpired respecting either Texas or Oregon. The Caledonia arrived at Boston on the 19th. The papers are chiefly filled with matters relating to the death of General Jackson, and the preparations making to pay a just tribute to his memory. Many public meetings had been held, at which a variety of measures were adopted to commemorate the event. The appointment of the Hon. L. M'Lane, of Baltimore, as a Special Minister to England, is positively announced; and he will leave new York for this country on the 15th inst. A great fire broke out at Fayetteville, N.C., on June 13. Half the town is in ruins. The market• house, and all the town below it going to the river, saved, and all the churches. The market and the Presbyterian church were en fire, but saved. ... = ic i -5 1 ' Ye , k 47.„,'--, ..'.' 456 , 1. I.or, - .... ;410A tl- e4 "" ,_ , ) z ~,, 410 PO: : - .'i. \'-\,, ~s- .Vir% Nik :.

MONEY and Uti IAtCIA IN it. %V b. CITY, QUART ER To THREE. The Cotton market at Liverpool yestei day was very steady. Sales about 8,000 bales. The Stock Exchange was closed for repairs. Among all classes in the City the report of the Committee of the House of Commons, relative to the jobbing that has taken place with respect to the North Kent Shares, has been perused this morning with most anxious, and, we may add, fairly indignant attention. There is too much reason to be lieve that this is not the only instance in which official confi dence has been used to advance the interest of certain parties who have unfairly obtained information to the disadvantage of the bona fide holders of scrip receipts before the Commit tees of several of the groups made their final decision. A most searching inquiry ought to be entered into with regard to many other lines where, without question, similar transactions to that we have noticed have occurred. In the concluding part of the report of the Com mittee most persons entirely concur, viz., that such transac tions on the part of one or more Members of Parliament and others must tend, if not put an end to, to render the decisions of the Committees of the House of little value in the eves of the public generally. It is quite certain that, even should the session be too short this year to take up the subject in detail, the most prompt steps must be taken next year to bring the matter fully and fairly before the public, and without which the dignity of the Legislature in its decisions upon private Bills would become a matter of scotn. The issues of notes by the Bank of England during the week to Saturday last, were 29,891,935 i., which is less by 155,535/. than per previous return. The public deposits are reduced a little, but as yet the payment of the half•year's interest is pretty nearly balanced by the revenue front vari ous branches of the public revenue. The stock of the pre cious metals in the Issue Department was 15,891,9351., and in the Banking Department, 526,197/., a decrease on the total of 183,769/. The Stock-market is in a most quiescent state to-day. Consols for the Account have fluctuated but from 99% to 99 ; the Three per Cents. for transfer next week, from 99 1 / s to 98% •, arid the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. from 102% to 1 4. The premium upon Exchequer-bills remains heavy, at 545. to 58s. A very few bargains were made in the Foreign Stocks to-day. Spanish are rather lower, the Consols having just been done at 26%, and the Three per Cents. at 37 1 ,4. For the other foreign bonds there has been but very few trans actions to-day. The Share Market has upon the whole looked firm this morning, but not very many transactions have been reported. The old lines are the firmest as to price. bttITISEI FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

Although pretty general,its eflects appear to have been the most severe over Somers Town, Ca:nden Town, and the uorth.west of the suburbs. Is Sumer; Town, after a tremendous peal of thunder, the electric fluid struck the corner o f a newly-built house in Seymour-street, carrying away a stack of chimneys, and the corner of the parapet, then taking an oblique direc tion, carrying away all the parts it touched, until it reached the coping of the wall. Near the spot two working men were sitting en &hew of bricks—one either sprung with attriget some distance, or was hurled by the shock five or six yards. He was picked up by Mr. Silcock, who has opened a public-hmse, into which the poor fellow was conveyed, in a senseless state. The other was struck against a wall, against which he stood for some time im movable. A third man, who was driving pigs along the road, was also struck down. The explosion was so tremendous that most of the inhabitants of that end of Seymour -street rushed out in alarm. CRICKET.—THE NEW RULES AND THE UMPIRES AT LOAD . 9.—The subject of the altered rule with regard to the de livery of the ball, or rather the deterininatien on the part of the committee of the Marylebone Club to enforce the old 111th rule, as amended, in respect to the bowler being " no.balled" if his hand shall be too high, has given rise to a general discussion. It would appear, too, that there was an indisposition amongst some of the umpires to carry out the particular rule, and, therefore, as the corn. mittee are anxious to avoid stultifying themselves by means of their own umpires not acting strictly up to the laws of the game, they assembled in the afternoon of Monday, when they unanimously passed the following resolutions :--" That in future the umpires be appointed by the committee and paid separately from the scorers." "'That no player belonging to Lord's ground shall be permitted to play or stand as umpire in any match in which the laws of cricket, as laid down by the Dlarylebone Cricket Club, are net strictly ad hered to." _DEATH OF TILE MAYOR OF WALSAI.L.—We regret to state that Mr. Hervey, the respected Alayor cf 'Walsall, was drowned while bathing, at an early hour on Wedistaday morning. This event is rendered still more lamentable by the fact that one of t he persons who went with dtags to find the body of the de. ceased gentleman was drowned in th e at t empt. T he demise of Mr. Hervey, more particularly under such circumstances, has cc casioned a deep tiding of regret thr oug h out t h e noroug h . At ptifiT iN tiF I' FtF.S ALAtioi Fill )m IAoI.LANIt --Ye.teulay morning some Dutch vessels at tived in the Thames wi. h eats° , s of remarkably tit e Dutch fresh salmon toil, which were quickly disposed of at moderate prices.

TRol TING MATCIL FOR TWENTY POUNDS.—YES terday, the match between Mr. Feiiwick's cob and Mr. Ruble's horse, to trot in harness over five miles of road, for 101. aside, came off at Penge-common, near Dulwich. The match was to trot in harness, and the horses being harnessed, the drivers brought them to the starting mark, and the race commenced. The following is the time occupied :—Furst mile, 3 min. 29 sec., Mr. Fenwick at a lead; second mile, 3 min, 36 sec. ; third mile, 3 min. 37 sec. Mr. Fenwick was leading at a good pace, when his horse broke, and his opponent went ahead and won the race, covering the five miles of road in 22 min. 30 sec. EXPRESS RAINS.—We understand that the guards who ride outside on the express trains between Manchester and London have some difficulty in preserving their sitting, so strong is the rush of air they experience. Last Tuesday several of the guards complained of the danger they were in from the side wind. We hope the directors of every line will arrange some adequate mode of protection.—Manchester Guardian. In accordance with the determination of the French Government to separate soldiers condemned to hard labour from the other prisoners, the Perdrix, a few days back, took on board, at Toulon, seventy-eight condemned soldiers, to conduct them to Brest, whence they are to be sent to Mont St. Michel. KENSINGTON GARDENS. C t,e usual summer musi • cal promenade in this park has commenced for the season.
