CONTRACT FOR THE CONVEYANCE OF THE MAILS BETWEEN LIVERPOOL AND HALIFAX. Ululer this title the House of Commons has printed the agreement entered into by the government with Mr. Cunard for the conveyance of the North American mail. It stipu lates that the mails shall be despatched twice every month from. Liverpool to Halifax, and twice every month from Ha lifax Liverpool. For executing this service Mr. Cunard is to provide and keep a sufficient number of good and effici ent steam-vessses, furnished with engines of not less than 300 horses' power. Mr. Cunard also undertakes to convey the mails and despatches twice every calendar month to Bos ton from Halifax and to Halifax from Boston, and when the St. Laivieuce is unobstructed by ice, from Pictou, in Nova Scotia, to Quebec, and from Quebec to Pictou, by good and substantial steam-vessels, provided with engines of not less than 150 horses' power. The contract is very specific as to "Those vesseli being properly found, and provided with a suffi cient crew of able seamen. The commissioners of the ad miralty are to appoint the two days in each month when the steamers are to leave Liverpool and Halifax respectively, and they are to proceed, without loss of tithe, direct to the end of their voyage. The despatch of the mail from Halifax for Boston is to take place as soon as possible after the arrival of the mail at Halifax, which is likewise to be the case with the 'Quebec mail after the, mail has reached Pictou. The commissioners may also alter the days of sailing at their pleasure, blit they mutt; give three months' notice. At the same time they may always delay the departure of the vessel for not more than twenty-four hours. If at any time, from stress of weather, or other unavoid able circumstance, the vessel should be unable to reach the Mersey,•the naval officer in charge of the mails or despatches may order the mails to be landed at Bristol, Falmouth, Ply mouth, Southampton, Portsmouth, Dover, or Deal. For the naval officer, who is to be sent in charge of the mails and despatches, the contractor is to provide a suitable first rate cabin, and suitable accommodation for a servant, and is 'to victual the officer like a cabin-passenger. If the admiralty please to entrust the mails to the captain of any of the 'ves sels, it is authorised to do so, and the captain will be bound to take eharge of them. A boat of not less than four oars is to be provided for landing the officer and the mails. Any stoppage, delay, or putting back into port, not sanc tioned by the naval officer, will be subject to a fine of £lOO, and a delay of twelve hours in not proceeding on a voyage from either. Liverpool or Halifax after the appointed time, subjects the contractor to a fine of £5OO, as well as a further £5OO for every additional twelve hours' delay. A similar delay in the smaller vessels carrying the mails from Halifax to Boston, will be subject to a fine of £5OO. Not less than four of the large steam-boats for the voyage across the Atlantic are to be always kept sea-worthy and in complete repair ; the number of the smaller ones is not sti pulated. The contractor binds himself to introduce and adopt all improveirents directed by the Admiralty or sug gested by the progress of science. To secure the goodness of the vessels, the iaval officer in charge of the mails, calling other persons to his assistance, has fultpower and authority survey and examine the vessel whenever he shall think fit; and repairs, sthich lie shall direct in writing, must be made as soon as possible, under a penalty of £lOO. The Lords of the - Adthiralty, also, reserve to themselves a power to survey the vessgls, and to order any improvements to be made in them yliich they think expedient ; and the con tractor must carry these improvements into effect to the satisfaction of the Admiralty, or forfeit £5OO. All these fines and penalties may be stopped out of the money to be paid to the contractor by the Admiralty. In addition, the contractor is to carry, if required, two chief cabin passengers, from Liverpool to Halifax, or Halifax to Liverpool, for £3O each, and tstro fore cabin passengers at the rate of £l5 each; and each seaman, soldier, or marine, at £4. The price to be charged for such passengers from Halifax to Boston, or from Pictou to Quebec, is to be, re spectively, £5, £3, and £2. Moreover, the contractor is to bake on board, and carry, free of charge, all small packages, directed by the commissioners, and naval stores not exceed ing five tons weight, on receiving two days' notice that such stores are to be sent. In return for all these services, and maintaining all these vessels, the Admiralty agrees to pay , to Mr. Cunard £60,000 per annum, in quarterly payments. The contract is to com mence on June Ist, 1840, or an earlier day if agreed on, and to continue in force for seven years from the commencement, and thenceforward until 12 calendar months' notice in wri tini shall he given by either party. No part of the contract is to be underlet, and no member of parliament, agreeably to act of parliament, is to have a share of it. t The whole concludes 'by Mr. Cunard binding himself in a penalty of £15,000 to fulfil his part of the con tract. When this contract comes to be acted on it will ensure a certain, speedy, and constant intercourse between the mother country and the colonies of Nbrth America, and between our several North American colonies and the United States, greatly to the advantage of them all. It seems, therefore, a very wise plan, and as the provisions we have quoted secure the adoption of every improvement on board the mail packets, we cannot find any fault with the number of years it is to last. The provisions fOr securing punctuality and avoiding all kinds of delay, deserve notice and praise, as they will give to ,this service regularity and certainty, and make every per son feel a just reliance on reaching the end of his voyage in a specified time. We pretend not to give en opinion whether the sum to be paid be large or small, but we would rather that the con tractor should make his fortune by it than that such an en terprise should be nipped in the bud by the parsimony of the government. We presume that the port of Liverpool has been chosen because that combines, in itself, proximity and trade to America beyond every other port. To carry out goods and passengers must of course fOrm the principal means by which Mr. Cunard will be remunerated. In con clusion, let us state that the outline of the agreement has al. ready been published, but, nevertheless, we think an abstract of the contract will be acceptable to our mercantile readers. REPORT OF A ROBBERY & ATTEMPT AT MURDER AT THE SENIOR UNITED SERVICE CLUB HOUSE. (From the Morning Herald, of Friday.) A report was very generally prevalent yesterday morning, that an occurrence similar in atrocity to the melancholy busi ness in Prince's-strreet, had occurred at the Senior United Service Club House, Pall Mall. On making inquiries, it was ascertained that the affair was undergoing an investigation by the police, and as is usual with that constabulary body in their proceedings, the most sedulous care was taken to exclude thepublic from a correct knowledge of the facts of the case. The following particulars have been collected from other sources which may be relied on : - About 7 o'clock yesterday morning the police m a n on d u ty in Pall Mall perceived marks of blood on the door of the United Service Club House. While he was examining them a servant came out, and in evident terror stated that the steward, Mr Charles Fenn, was lying in his bedroom appar ently murdered. On entering the sleeping room of the stew ard. which was on the ground floor, the unfortunate man was found lying on the floor, deluged in blood from wounds on the head, but not dead, although in a state of insensibility. it was immediately inferred that these appearances had been produced ; by some one whose object was plunder, and this opinion was confirmed by finding, as reported, that the cash box had been forced open and rifled of its contents. A me dical Man was sent for, and on examining the steward's per son, it appeared that one or two heavy blows had been inflicted ou the head and several other blows on the arm. These blows had seemingly been given with some blunt weapon, and were such as would be produced by a knobbed stick or loaded bludgeon. On examining the doors, which the perpetrator, to make his escape, was obliged to open, five or six in num ber, they were all found to be marked with blood, as was the outer door through which escape had been effected. From all the circumstances an impression was strongly created that the villain must have been well acquainted with the premises, and likewise knew not only the situation of the property, but the best mode by which he could get out of the club house when his object was achieved. A small sliding box, in which the key of the outer door was usually kept, was marked with blood, and the key removed. The surgeon, who was engaged to attend upon the wound ed man, gave directions that his patient should use as little speech as possible, as.he was in considerable danger. It was thought however, advisable, as soon as Mr. Fenn was able to articulate, to take down his deposition, so that, in case an unfavourable change should occur, that the police should be in possession of all the information they could collect which might assist in bringing the villain or villains to justice. The amount supposed to have been taken away is reported to be somewhere about £lOO. We, think it but right just to allude to a rumour which, in some degree, prevails, that the blows are by no means of the dangerous Character hey were at first reported. (From the Morning Herald of Saturday) The alleged robbery and attempt at murder at the Senior United Service Club House, in Pall-mall, was yesterday the subject of much conversation at the west end of town, and much excitement has been occasioned throughout the neigh bourhood of St. James's, by that mysterious occurrence. During yesterday numerous inquiries were made at the club house as to the state of Mr. Charles Fenn, the answers to which were that he was better, and that the injuries were not so severe as was at first supposed. Ever since the first discovery of the affair Mr. Superin tendent Baker and Inspectors Covington and Jarvis, of the C division, have been actively engaged in endeavouring to elucidate the mystery in which the affair is enveloped, but with what success had not transpired at a late hour last evening. Mr. Fenn states that on retiring to rest he locked the door of his bed-room ou the inside, and the result of the exami nation of the room by the police, since the occurrence, proves that no violence had been used in opening it, nor had there been any force used in the opening of any of the locks of the other doors through which the prepetrators of the outrage must have passed in their escape from the premises. It has also been ascertained that nothing has been removed from the room, except the cash and notes from the cash box, which was not broken open, as was at first reported, but had been opened by the proper key, which Mr. Fenn states, must have been taken from the pocket of his trousers by the thieves. Mr. Fenn also states, that on his being attacked by the ruffians he instantly jumped out of bed and grappled with his assailants, with whom he struggled for full ten minutes, when, he was overcome by the repeated blows he received, and loss of blood. It is, however remarkable, that neither the struggle nor his cries were heard by any other of the inmates of the establishment, who are numerous. Another singular circumstance is, that the bell-rope, which hung by the side of the head of Mr. Fenn's bed; was found to have been cut off, and was lying on the floor. The whole of the servants residing both in and out of the house, between 30 and 40 in number, have been examined before Mr. Superintendent Baker, but their answers have been so plain and straightforward, that suspicion has been removed from any of them, although the police are still con vinced that the outrage must have been committed by some persons well acquainted with the premises. The following is a copy of the official circular forwarded, on Thursday evening, to each of the police station houses : " C Division, Sept. 12, 1839. ", Stolen, between the hours of one and two o'clock this morning, from the - United Service Club, Pall-mall, about £127 in gold, silver, and notes. The numbers of the notes are not known. At the same time the steward was attacked, and received several blows about the head and arms, supposed by a stick, which was left behind in the room. The above was committed by two men, of whom no description can be given. (Signed) " C. BERESFORD, Inspector. (Additional Particulars, from the Sunday Papers.) SATURDAY NIGHT.—The secrecy which has been main tained by the domestics of the establishment ever since this alleged occurrence is still scrupulously persisted in, and the only answer to all inquiries is, that ' Mr. Fenn is rather better." The same secrecy is likewise manifested by the police, who, on being questioned on this subject, reply, that as yet no clue has been obtained to the elucidation of the affair. • baring Friday Mr. Fenn continued in a very excited state, and two persons were directed to sit up with him during the • night. In the early part hs slept comfortably; but about rgiduight he started up in bed, speaking incoherently ; and it is stated that about three o'clock he suddenly jumped out of bed in a paroxysm of delirium, and assaulted one of his at tendants, believing him to be one of the persons by whom he says he was attacked. He also at intervals pointed to a cor ner of the room, exclaiming in apparent alarm, " There-- there they are —don't you see them." Mr. Woolridge, of Jerrayn-steret, the surgeon who is in attendance, visited him saveral times yesterday. Mr. Woolrldge has been enjoined to secrecy by the committee of the club, and declines to give any information, as it may frustrate the ends of justice. But if we understood him rightly, there are marks of blows on the forehead, over the lett eye, and on the arms . M r. Woodridge also said that, apart from thi excitement under which Fenn was labouring, he was at that moment quite as well as himself. THE MONUMENT CATASTROPHE-INQUEST ON THE BODY. Witness—Sir, I will state to you the only reason why I consider she could have been prompted to the commission of such a deed. Her father has a large family, and his circum stances not being latterly in so prosperous a condition as heretofore, owing to Severe illness, which has afflicted him since his wife's death nearly two years, it was deemed neces sary that some of the girls should be put into some situa tion to procure their living. This circumstance has weighed heavily on her mind for a length of time past. She was the second daughter. I have been talking to her sisters since the melancholy occurrence, and they attribute it to the same cause. When did you see her last ?—I saw her on last Monday, and she appeared then to be very low spirited. Do you know anything about a paper that was found in the house since her death ?—There was a memorandum-book found on the mantel-piece, by her sister, in a room which the family frequently occupied. I have it here. Do you know her hand-writing ?—No, I do not ; but there are some lines in it written, I understand, by her. The Coroner, after looking at the book, requested Mr. Bowen to read the lines aloud. They were these :—" You need not expect to see me back again, for I have made up my mind to make away with" By the Coroner—Are there any other words after the word " with ?" Witness—No, sir, it concludes there abruptly, as the writing had reached the end of the page ; but on the other side is the signature, " Margaret Moves." Do you know whether the deceased kept company with any person as a sweetheart believe she did not. You are aware of a ring being found on one of the fingers of her left hand ?—Yes, I have seen it. (The serjeant of police here produced the ring, which was a plain one, with a diamond in it. He said it was found on the third finger.) One of the Jury—l heard to-day that there was a gentle man who was in the habit of paying his addresses to the de ceased. Witness—No such thing. I have known her for a long time, and I am convinced she had no connection of the sort. They have no cousins, or even any relations whatever. To a Juror—On leaving home she passed out through the shop, and said she was going to breakfast with a friend. She lived upon exceedingly good terms with her sisters ; and until of late she was of a very cheerful disposition. Believes that the dread of being thrown upon the world for support was the sole cause of her desperate conduct. She talked to her sisters frequently on the subject, and, although she disliked being obliged to adopt such a course, yet she admitted its necessity. It was thought by ler sisters and herself, that as she had been used to keeping shop, she might get a situation behind the counter in some confectioner's. By the Coroner—Do you know how she spent the evening previous to her decease ? Witness—She drank tea with a sister of hers, who is mar ried. Have you heard if there was anything particular in her conduct on that occasion ?—Nothing, except that she kissed her sister two or three times at parting, which was rather un usual with her, though it did not excite any observation at the time. The family had heard in the morning of a female jumping off the monument ; but they had not the slightest suspicion of who the per s o n was . I t was only five o clock in the evening, when one of her sisters, going to her father's room, found the memorandum-book, and the fact for the first time occurred to them. On running down stairs the sister met a gentleman who lodged in the house, whom she requested to hasten to London-bridge, and ascertain who the person was. He did so, and returned bringing a piece of dress which was recognised by the sister. Who is the gentleman who was sent by the sister of the deceased ?—He is a captain in the army, and had lived in the house for some time ; but he was a perfect stranger to the family. He was merely a casual lodger. Do you know where he is at present?—No, sir, he was obliged to leave town last night, according to some previous arrangement he had made. Do you know if the captain and deceased had been keeping company together ?—Not further, I believe, than occasionally attending him at breakfast. They did not keep a domestic servant. Do you know where the captain is to be found ?—I cer. tainly do not. '!'lie Coroner here asked whether the jury deemed it ne cecessary to have the deceased's sister called ? Several jurymen expressed their desire to have further evidence. The sister of the deceased, attended by another young lady, was then led into the room. She appeared to be in a most agonising state of mind, and for a length of time she could scarcely articulate a word. Having been sworn she said her name was Christiana Moyes, and that she was sister to the deceased; she could not state any reasons for her sister's conduct, except that she had taken her father's illness very much to heart. By the Coroner —Do you think that the dread of being thrown upon the world had any influence upon her mind ? Oh, yes, that also. She had no sweethearts. The gentle man who lodged in the house has gone away. Nothing oc curred between him and her that could cause any unpleasant feeling. She had seen her yesterday morning previous to going out, and she appeared then to be as reconciled in mind as ever she had seen her in her life. One of her other sis ters told her that deceased had been crying during the morn ing. Nothing unple asan t h a d occurre d b etween h er and her married sister on the previous evening. She was quite happy with her. The witness was then directed to withdraw. The Coroner then said that if there was any gentleman present who was connected with the Monument, he wished to ask a few questions. A gentleman, named Bleaden, said he would be happy to answer any questions. Coroner—Who has the charge of the Monument ? Mr. Bleaden—Thomas Jenkins is the person in charge What sort Of property is it ; is it city property ?—Yes, it is a city building, and is under the control of the committee of city lands. Mr. Obbard is the present chairman of the com mittee. • The Coroner again inquired if the jury required any fur ther evidence. A juror observed that he would wish.to hear the evidence of the married sister, with whom deceased had spent the last evening of her existence, and also that of the captain who had been alluded to. The Coroner observed that he was entirely in the hands of the juryi It might not, however, be convenient to procure the attendance of the captain, although he apprehended there would be little difficulty in producing the lady. As the cap. tam had only lodged in the house for two or three weeks, it was not likely that he could have acquired any great influence over her mind. (From the Morning Herald of Friday.) Yesterday an inquest was held at the Swan Tavern, Fish street-hill, adjoining London-bridge, before Mr. Payne, the city coroner, on view of the body of Margaret Moyes, aged 22, who committed suicide by throwing herself from the top of the London Monument, and the particulars of whose fate appeared in the Morning Herald of yesterday. Ever since the occurrence the utmost excitement has pre vailed, not only in the immediate vicinity of the Monument, where the catastrophe occurred, but in the neighbourhood of Hemming's-row, St. Martin's-lane, where the relatives of the ill-fated girl reside. Long before three o'clock, the hour appointed by the coroner for the commencement of the in quest, the approaches to the Swan Tavern were beset by a great number of respectably-dressed persons, who evinced the utmost anxiety to ascertain the authentic particulars of the dreadful act. The coroner having taken his seat, the court proceeded to empanel the jury, which consisted of 24 of the most respect able inhabitants of the parish. The jury, having . been sworn, retired to view the body, which lay in the shell in the watch house of St. Magnus the Martyr. On their return the first witness called was Thomas Jenkins, who having been sworn, deposed as fol lows :—I am the person who attends the Monument. Yes terday morning, about ten o'clock, a young lady came in and asked me if two ladies and a gentleman had been there. She said they had come with her by the steam-boat for the pur pose of visiting the monument, but that she had missed them. She said, however, that she had no doubt they would arrive in a few minutes, and that she would wait for them. She added afterwards that she would go up without them, and re quested that he would tell them when they arrived that she had gone before, and if they did not choose to follow she wished they would wait below until she came down again. She then made some observation concerning the weather, and, having paid the sixpence, the usual fee, she ascended the Monument. In about a quarter of an hour afterwards I was alarmed by a cry from the street, which induced me to go to the door, when I saw the deceased lying inside the iron rail ing, with the head towards Fish-street-hill. Coroner—Was she then quite dead ? Witness—Quite dead, sir. Do you know anything more of the matter than what you have stated ?—Nothing more, sir. How did the deceased appear to talk to you ?—Quite ra tionally and collectedly. To a Juror—On going to the top I found her bonnet and veil, and a pair of gloves and a waistband, lying on the gal lery-floor, near the door. I also found a piece of rope, which I now produce.—(The mitness here produced the piece of rope, which appeared to be much worn. It was looped in the manner described in our notice of the occurrence yesterday.) To another Juror—The deceased was the first who had as cended to the top of the Monument that morning. To a third Juror—The arm of the deceased was found lying inside the railing. Examination resumed—l the first person who as cended to the top after the fatal occurrence. The next witness examined was Thomas Crawley, who, being sworn, the Coroner asked—What do you know of this case ? , Witness—l saw the deceased drop. When towards the ground she was within about two yards of the railing. I then ran round to the part of the building where she fell. She appeared to me to have made a motion with her arms when falling. When I saw her on the ground she was quite dead. That is all I know of the matter. To a Juror—Did not see any one on the top of the Monu ment at the time. Could not see her reach the ground from the position in which I stood. John Wiley was next sworn and examined—l live at 24, Artillery-lane, Bishopsgate-street. lam employed as a workman to Messrs. Wilcocks & Son, corner of Monument yard. I was looking out of the window when I heard a dread ful crash. I immediately ran out and saw deceased lying at the north side of the Monument. Her arm was lying about one foot clear from her body. There was a profusion of blood, but whether it issued from the arm or from the breast I did not know. I observed a man standing gazing on the body, quite paralyzed. He at length exclaimed, "Oh ! she has fallen from the Monument." I then elevated my eyes towards the top, when I observed a shawl or scarf hanging to the chimney used by the porter. Several policemen then arrived, and I went away. The witness then requested leave to make an observation, and the coroner having tacitly con sented, he proceeded to state that he thought that if a railing of seven feet high were put round the top of the Monument it would have the effect of preventing any person from getting over. The Coroner observed that this circumstance had already attracted the attention of the jury. The witness then retired. John Bradley, police constable, and Mr. Cowton, formerly superintendent of police and now ward beadle, severally de posed to the finding and removal of the body. Surgeon Croft was the next witness examined. He de posed that he had seen the deceased and had made an exa. mination of the body. He had found a fracture of the spine, a compound fracture of the skull, and a simple one of the left thigh. By the Coroner—From what you have seen of the body do you suspect that there was anything wrong—any impreg nation ? Witness—l have made no internal examination and there are no such external appearances. I beg to add that I think that she must have been dead before she reached the ground. Coroner—Why do you think so ? Witness—From the small quantity of blood discovered. [lt may be here remarked that no question whatever was asked the surgeon concerning the state in which he found the broken arm, which is the more extraordinary, as the most exaggerated reports had been in circulation regarding that circumstance. One statement was that it had been com pletely chopped off, and was found at a considerable distance.] The next witness produced was Mr. James Bowen, an in mate acquaintance of the deceased and her family. He stated that he was an oil and colour merchant, and resided in Pan ton-street, Haymarket. He was intimately acquainted with with the deceased. Her name was Margaret Moyes. She was the daughter of Mr. James Moyes, a baker, who resides in Humming's-row, St. Martin's-lane. By the Coroner—Now, Mr. Bowen, do you know any rea son why the deceased should have committed this dreadful act? ADDRESS OF THE COMMITTEE OF THE PRO TESTANT ASSOCIATION ON THE RECENT POPISH APPOINTMENTS IN THE STATE. ADDRESS TO THE QUEEN. To the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty. The humble petition of the undersigned humbly showeth, —That your petitioners beg leave humbly to approach your Majesty, with the unfeigned assurances of our loyalty and attachment to your Majesty's person and government. We earnestly desire and pray for the security of your Majesty's Throne, the prosperity of your reign, and the maintenance of that pure and reformed religion which is committed to your Majesty's care as temporal head of the Church ; and there fore cannot but view with alarm and apprehension, the dan gers to which these great national blessings are exposed, from the pernicious counsels of those who are at present honoured with your Majesty's confidence in the administration of pub lic affairs. We have observed with deep concern that your Majesty has been advised so far to depart from those Prostestant principles, which the law of England has made the condition of the succession to the throne, as to confer on members of the Church of Rome high and influential situations in several of the public departments of the state ; for example, in the Admiralty, the Treasury, and the Board of Trade. And this concern is further increased by the fact that one of these in dividuals has been admitted to the rank and privileges of your Majesty's most honourable Privy Council; the first instance, we believe, on record of such a departure from the principles of our constitution since the deliverance of this country from Papal tyranny in 1688. It is, moreover, to be deplored that this preferment should be conferred on men who are subjects of the See of Rome, at a time when that apostate Church has openly threatened the extinction of the established religion of this country, and is now seeking, by means of deep-laid conspiracies and secret intrigues, again to bring the people of these islands in sub jugation to the Roman Pontiff. - In conclusion we would humbly remind your Majesty, that the throne to which your Majesty has succeeded, and the form of government under which we are priviledged to live are based on Christian principles, that this nation has once been delivered by a signal interposition of Divine Providence from Popish tyranny and arbitrary power, and that if we are so forgetful of former mercies as to surrender any participa tion in the government of the state to the partisans of an idolatrous and anti-Christian Church, there remains no thing but a fearful looking for of Divine judgments; we may expect to be delivered into the hands of those who hate us ; and your Majesty's reign, instead of being a happy and pros perous, may be made a period of trouble and calamity too painful for the mind of any loyal subject to contemplate. Wherefore your petitioners humbly pray that your Majesty will be graciously pleased to cancel these appointments, fraught, as we believe them to be, in their ultimate results, with such imminent danger to the Church, the country, and the Throne. And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray &c. &c. STATE OF TRADE. LEEDS.—The demand for goods since our last has under gone a visible improvement, and on Tuesday, especially, the market exhibited a much firmer tone. Various circum stances contributed to this end. The apprehensions as to the failure of the harvest have almost vanished ; the money market is much easier ; and the Liverpool steamer, which arrived at Liverpool, on Sund a y, f rom New York, had brought favourable accounts of the commercial markets in the United States. BRADFORD MARKET.—We had a fair attendance of buyers in the Piece Hall to-day, and an average quantity of business was done on recent terms. There was a steady demand for Yarn'at former rates, all attempts to improve the price being unavailing. The transactions in Short Wool were to some ex tent, and the prices were firm, but the market for Long Wool was very flat. DEWSBURY.—We had an improved demand for goods in our Blanket and Shoddy Hall, on Monday, but the range of prices may be considered at stationary. HECKMONDWIx.E.—The Blanket Hall continues to be well attended by the merchants. The demand for blankets is ge nerally good, and prices remain firm. YORK WOOL MARKET, SEPTEMBER 12.—We have had a tolerable supply of wool, and a fair attendance of buyers ; the transactions of the day have been rather dull, and several lots remain unsold. Prices may be quoted nominal upon our last quotations. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 13.—There has been more inquiry for most descriptions of Long Wools this week, and sale have been considered at former limits • that this should be the case in the present dep resse d state of the money market, can only be accounted for by the scanty supply at market. Blanket and Clothing Wools are in fair demand, at late quotations. BARNSLEY LINEN TRADE.—The linen trade still remains moderately good, with a fair demand for home consumption. The drill season is just commencing, and bids fair for a brisk trade. SADDLE WORTH.—The Woollen Cloth trade is rather dull, very little being done for exportation, and the hands on an average have not more than four or five days' work per week, and some are wholly unemployed. OLDHAM.—The hands of several of the cotton mills where they have been partially employed for six months have this week commenced working full time. Indeed the hands in all the mills expect to be at full work during this and next week. Other trades are in a moderate state. HEYWOOD. —There is not a town in Lancashire where the factory operatives have been so badly off as at Heywood ; yet trade has improved here, and the hands have commenced working full time at nearly all the mills. The chartist agita tion has been a bad thing for many of the operatives ; a great number have been obliged to leave the town since the holiday. SILK i rRADE.—On Saturday last, papers were posted up in several warehouses in Manchester, stating that they were wanting weavers. On Monday manufacturers were seeking weavers in various towns. There has not been a better pros pect at this season of the year for many years past. There is a brisk demand for checked sarcenets ; indeed, all sorts of work are much wanted, and silk weavers appear to be doing very well. The Foreman, having ascertained the sense of the jury, then stated that they were unwilling to proceed without hear ing further evidence. The Coroner said in that case they had better endeavour to ascertain the abode of the parties. Mr. Bowen was then recalled, when he stated that the de ceased's sister resided in Buckingham-street, Strand, and that her attendance could be easily procured. By the Coroner—Do you know the name of the gentleman who lodged in the house ? Mr. Bowen—His name is Captain Bevan. He resided there only three weeks. He packed up his things last night, and said he was going off in the morning to shoot. I have no notion whatever of what part of the country he has gone to. Coroner—There is no suspicion whatever attached to the conduct of the captain. The only reason for requiring his at tendance is that he may be able to throw some additional light on the 'state of the deceased's mind. The better way, perhaps, would be to adjourn the inquest until to-morrow, and if the captain were not forthcoming, they could further adjourn until some future period. He was aware that this course would be attended with great inconvenience to many of the jury, but he was sure that they did not mind it in the discharge of a great public duty. The jurymen were then severally bound over to be in at tendance at three o'clock this day, when the inquiry will be resumed. Yesterday evening Mr. Mopes, the father of the deceased, expired at his residence, in Hemming's-row, St. Martin's lane. He had for some weeks been confined to his bed through illness, occasioned, it is said, by sorrow for the loss of his wife, and vexation at the publications in a libellous pe riodical, reflecting on the character of his family ; and his be ing made acquainted with his daughter's melancholy death so affected him as to cause an almost immediate dissolution. ADJOURNED INQUIRY. (From the Morning Herald of Saturday.) Mr. Payne, city coroner, and the jury assembled again yesterday, at three o'clock, at the White Swan, Fish-street. hill, to resume the inquiry touching the death of Margarei Moyes. _ _ The evidence, yesterday, though voluminous, diff ere d so little from that adduced on the first inquiry, that it may be advantageously condensed into a few sentences. The Coroner, as soon as the names of the jury were called over, said—l am told that a great many people, both yester day and to-day, have been up the Monument, and I think it would be much more decent if the persons who have the care of the structure prevented the wholesale admission of parties for the present, who can have no other motive in view than the satisfying an idle curiosity. Mr. Croft, the surgeon, said he had examined the body, internally, and that there was nothing to show that the womb had ever been impregnated. There were some suspicious ap pearances, but as they might be caused by general debility of the system, he could not positively state that the chastity of the deceased had ever been violated. The Coroner—From those al;;rances it would be cruel to form any supposition militating against the deceased's virtue. Mr. Croft—lt certainly would. Captain Bevan said he had lodged in the house of the deceased's father for the last three weeks, and had observed the depressed and dejected state of her mind. She was a very reserved girl, and when he once inquired the cause of her melancholy, she answered somewhat reluctantly, " My mother has lately died, and my father is expected to die, and then what will become of us ?" He knew of nothing that could account for the fatal act but family misfortunes. He had never given deceased any offence, and he left his lodgings on the night of the melancholy transaction, at the request of the family, who wished to have his apartments to put the body in. He now came forward in consequence of what he had read in the public journals, and he had no in tention of leaving town before the termination of the present inquiry. Mrs. Elizabeth Winkworth, the married sister of the de ceased, and with whom she had taken tea on Tuesday even ing, gave evidence very similar to that of her sister Chris tiana, examined on the first day. She said that deceased was always of a very melancholy temperament, and that when they last parted there was nothing unusual in her man ner, except that, though generally kind, she appeared more warmly affectionate than ordinary. She never had a lover. In answer to the Coroner—Neither deceased nor her fa mily had ever been annoyed by attacks in certain disgusting and infamous weekly publications. There was no truth in the current report that her father was dead. This being the whole of the evidence, the Coroner briefly summed up, and the jury having consulted in another room for a quarter of an hour, returned a verdict of " Temporary Insanity." The coroner, foreman, and jury, then signed a document, addressed to the city lands committee, recommending the erection of a railing around the gallery of the monument, of sufficient height to prevent the recurrence of a similar catas trophe. _ _ Mr. Matthews, common councilman, said—l have no doubt, after what has passed, but the city lands committee will order the necessary arrangements to be made in the gal lery railings ; but if they do not, I shall take care to bring the matter formally before the Court of Common Council. The committee of the Protestant Association, deeply con cerned at the recent appointment of three members of the Church of Rome to high and important offices in the State, have felt it to be their duty to their Queen, their country, and their God, to present to her Majesty, as temporal head of the Church, the subjoined address ; and they would further en treat their Protestant fellow-subjects to testify, in like manner, their sense of the inju r y w hi c h suc h a pp o i n t ments are calculated to inflict upon the best interests of the com munity. The rapid progress which Popery has of late years made in the land, and the untiring efforts by which she is now, both openly and covertly, assailing the privileges and blessings which this nation has long been permitted by a gra cious Providence to enjoy, cannot be regarded without se rious alarm by all who are anxious to maintain those civil and religious liberties to which the unchanged and unchangeable doctrines of Popery are diametrically cpposed. Regarding, therefore, these recent appointments as another successful step in the efforts of the Papacy to establish herself supreme in the land, the committee of the Protestant Association would urge upon their Protestant fellow-countrymen the im portant duty of humbly addressing their beloved Sovereign, praying that she will be pleased to cancel these appointments —fully sensible as they are that if the designs of the Church , of Rome be permitted to b e f u lfill e d, thi s once Protestant 1 nation can only look for judgment and fiery indignation as a just retribution for the surrender of those privileges with which God has so abundantly blessed us. AN EXECUTION AT ATHENS. Monday, the sth of August, being the day fixed for the execution of two men, condemned to be guillotined for a pre meditated murder, it had been decided to substitute the French system of guillotining for the decapitation by the sword, which was previously the custom. A week before the fatal day, I witnessed the arrival at Athens of the exe cutioner, the only one who performs this office throughout Greece. He came from Lamia, and made his entry into the capital on horsback, surrounded by a detachment of gen darmes, who had been ordered at his request to protect him. not only on the rciad, but during his stay at Athens, as his two predecessors had been assassinated in that city. His fate, however, was not more fortunate than theirs, for one morning, on going to the Pireus, still guarded by a few gen darmes, he entered a tavern; on leaving the house, he pro ceeded a few paces beyond his escort, and had scarcely left the door when a pistol-ball struck him in the heart, and he fell dead on the spot. The perpetrator of this murder has not yet been discovered. After various efforts, the authorities succeeded in finding a young man, who consented to undertake the sad functions of executioner, on condition of being paid an exorbitant fee, which they were compelled to give, in order to have the exe cution performed on the appointedday. At day-break the crowd already assembled caught a glimpse of the guillotine, which had been erected during the night on an open space to the right of the high road from Athens to the Pierus, and guarded even at that early hour by a strong detachment of infantry. By four o'clock, a.m., the crowd became densely augmented by numerous spectators pouring in from Athens and the surrounding places, all anxious to behold the tragic scene in preparation ; the roads, fields, and footpaths were thronged in every direction. After a delay of three hours, the footsteps of horsemen were heard at a distance, and in a short time a half squadron of hussars were seen escorting the two convicts, each of whom was conveyed in a cart, and accompanied by an ecclesiastic holding a crucifix in his hand. At the moment that the two carts entered the place of execution, the convicts repeated, one after the other, in a loud and audible voice, " Forgive us, as we forgive you!" to which the multitude answered, " May God forgive you, and immediately a profound si lence ensued. The two carts drew up at the foot of the scaffold. After a long pause, a police-officer ordered one of the condemned men to descend from the vehicle. As soon as he put his foot on the ground, they tried to take off his irons, but not having the keys, they commenced breaking the fetters with a stone; this operation lasted at least half an hour ; two men then fastened in a very active manner cords round the convict's body and his feet and hands, after which they made him mount the scaffold, holding the ends of the cords in their hands. The executioner, pale as death, and trembling as if he was to be the victim, betrayed, by his countenance and manner, that he did not know how to go about the work he had un dertaken, and seemed in a terrible predicament. After re maining in total inaction for several minutes, be fell upon his knees and recited a long prayer : he. then got up, seized the convict by the collar, and commenced binding him to the fa tal plank. The convict, apparently a man of great energy, exclaimed, " What are you about ? You are to cut my head off; make haste ; let it be finished at once !" The execu tioner, in a feeble planner, and with a piteous look, replied, " I shall never be able to get this cursed machine into or der." This intimation excited a cry of horror and amongst the crowd, but silence was soon restored. The executioner, having reflectedfor some minutes, pointed with his finger to the hole in the guillotine, telling the con vict to put his head in it-; the latter refused, and commenced walking up and down the scaffold, as the ropes by which he was held left him sufficient liberty for that purpose. In the mean time the executioner, with► his arms crossed, stood ab sorbed in thought. On a sudden the unfortunate convict stopped short, and turning towards the troops, exclaimed, " Soldiers, have pity on me ; shoot me at once, and put an end to this long and dreadful agony!" These words struck the executioner with amazement, and he declared that he did not understand the use of the guillotine, and descended hastily from the scaffold. The other convict, who remained all this time in his cart, watched attentively •all that passed upon the scaffold, and a bitter smile was more than once remarked upon his lips. As there was none of the superior authorities present, the police agents, to whose charge the execution had been com mitted, despatched a messenger to the minister of justice, with a succinct account of what had taken place. At the expiration of an hour and a half, a cloud of dust was per ceived in the direction of Athens, and in a few minutes one of the King's aides-de-camp was seen approaching at full gallop, and waving a white handkerchief. He had scarcely arrived within a few paces of the scaffold when the crowd and the soldiers made the air resound with the cries of " A pardon !,' " Long live the King !" The aide-de-camp was, in fact, the bearer of a commutation of punishment in favour of the two convicts, who, on hearing the joyful news, em braced their confessors, and thanked God for his mercy, ex claiming at the same time, " May God grant a long life and happy reign to our liberator, King Otho." The two convicts were taken back to Athens in the same carts, and the in habitants testified in various ways their satisfaction at the royal clemency, as a sort of compensation for the shocking agony which those unfortunate men had undergone during six hours. PUBLIC EXPERIMENTS ON THE DADUERREO , TYPE. At 12 o'clock on Friday week, M. Daguerre commenced a series of public experiments on his process for fixing images received by the camera obscura. The meeting was held at the Grand Hotel on the Quai d'Orsay, in which the minister of the interior had given orders to prepare a room for the purpose. About 123 persons were present, amongst whom were several distinguished literati artists, &c. The object of the meeting was not to enter into all the de tails and scientific demonstrations connected with the Da guerreo -type, but solely for the purpose of making a public experiment, and showing to each individual the exact man ner of using the different parts of the appparatus, so as to arrive at the result already announced. M. Daguerre, upon whom the eyes of an anxious auditoty were rivetted, took, in the first instance, a plate of copper plated with solid silver (not mere ly silvered), he rubbed it lightly with a little olive oil, and finely powdered pumice stone, by means of small tufts of cotton. It is necessary to rub the plate, in the first instance, in a circular direction, and then in a straight line, so as to clean and polish the plate perfectly. This operation is to be recommenced with one part of nitric acid diluted with sixteen parts of distilled'wa ter' and repeated after sli g htly warm i ng t h e p l ate ( the pla ted surface upwards) by means of a lamp or a small heater placed underneath. The plate having gone through this process, is fit for receiving a load of iodine, which layer is so peculiarly acted on by light that it will retain the image of objects subsequently striking upon it. The plate fixed in a small board, and protected from the light, by closing the windows, was then placed (the plated part downwards) in the lid of a box, the bottom of which contained some iodine; the evaporation of the iodine to wards the upper part of the box produced in the course of 20 minutes a layer, the colour of which resembles that of yellow copper. The experimentalist next took the plate so prepared and fixed it in the camera obscura placed on the balcony of the room on the Quai d'Orsay. Alluding to the period of the season and he state of the sky he considered that it would require 20 minutes, so that the objects reflected upon the plate should become fixed to a sufficient degree. At other seasons of the year, when the sun was at a higher elevation, and possed more force, from seven to eight minutes would suffice for producing the same result. The plate was withdrawn without exhibiting any alteration, or any traces of a drawing or image whatsoever. The action of mercury, however, would in an instant bring into view the image which the assembly s o a nx i ous l y looked for. The plate was then placed in an inclined direction (of 45 degrees) in a new apparatus, the botton of which contained about 21bs of mercury, heated by means of a lamp to about 63 degrees of the centigrade thermometer. This temperature caused the particles of mercury to rise to the upper part of the appartus, and these particles uniting on the plate, in a few minutes the drawing became apparent, as seen through a glass placed at the front of the box, a process which gave the spectator an opportunity of following, as if step by step, the formation of the drawing. Thus the experiment was completed, to the great satisfac tion of the assembly, and a unanimous burst of congratula tion convinced the eminent inventor of the high sense enter tained of this important discovery.' The only remaining part of the operation was to wash the plate with distilled water, saturated with salt or hypo-sul phate, and at a high temperature, but not boiling ; after which this beautiful drawing, now unalterable by light, was handed round, and the company were enabled to admire a _view, drawn with incredible precision, and representing the quay, the Seine, and the terrace and palace of the Tuileries. The above splendid result was obtained in an hour and some minutes, and it was clearly demonstrated that the opera tion relative to the layer of iodine, and that of fixing the image in the camera obscura, might be effected with much more ra pidity under certain conditions. - It was evident to all present that any person familiar with the arts, and with physical and chemical experiments, might easily obtain the result expected from the Daguerreotype, which, moreover, requires but little skill and dexterity. The satisfaction experienced by the assembly was enhanced by the assurance given by M. Daguerre—namely, that with respect to obtaining in the country the different apparatus connected with the above discovery, the plate could be pre pared at home, and even the layer of iodine could be pre served in a closed box, protect6d from the light, for an hour, so that it would be possible to make use of it at a certain dis tance, merely by carrying the camera obscura. Four hours might thus be passed, without any trouble, previously to the operation of forming the layer of mercury, which might be deferred until the operator returned from his excursion. This assertion proves that the apparatus does not give so much trouble as was at first supposed. Emports. AFRICA.
