Our Second Edition of last evening recorded the premature, and at last sudden death, of the Earl of DUIIIIAM. His Lordship was born on April 12, 1792, and had, concequently, entered his fortv,- ninth year. He was created a Baron on January 27, 1828, a Viscount r.nd an Earl on March 15, 1833. He has enjoyed his Peerage, if he can be said to have enjoyed it at all, for a very short period ; but not as a Peer, as a conspicuous and influential member of society, are we called on to consider him. The particulars of his death, and of the de voted affection by which he was attended till his last xoment, are described by our Correspondent in an other part of The Sun. JOHN GEORGE LAMBTO N was the descendant. and representative of one of the oldest and most opulent families in the county of Durham. Hi s father, who represented the city of Durham in Parliament, died at the age of thirty-three, Mole he had developed the great talents for which his friends gave him credit. Mr. LA MBTON, who was five years of age at his father's death, on attaining his majority stood for his native county, and was elected in 1813. At that period, as the eloquently de scribed its condition at Sunderland in 1834, "there was no public feeling in it of any description. The gentry of the county were chiefly Tories—the magisterial bench was filled with the same party—all public meetings were held at the gates of the Bishop's palace. The Rev. Prelate generally attended. Instructions were given to the tejiants how there were to vote, and theis hands were held up according to the incli nation and in obedience to the bidding of their land lords." Under such circumstances it was an act of (Treat boldness in Mr. LAMBTON to offer him self to the freeholders. He succeeded through the influence of his father's character ; he laboured in cessantly afterwards to uphold and strengthen rite independence of his native county, and it has ever since been one of the foremost in the LiberaA cause. Lord DURHAM in the course of his Par t :ramentary life saw many of the principles which Ire advocated againSt great majorities ultimately triumph ; hut we doubt whether any one of his 'aiumphs gave him equal satisfaction to his lastin g success in creating and preserving the indepenr!,ence of Durham. He no sooner entered Parliament than he made himself conspicuous by tile fearlessness and sincerity with which he advr fatted popular principles. At that time the dip:omatic portioning of kingdoms, which gives a spur to ambition and sanctity to usurpation, was in vogue, and Mr. LAMBTON was one of those who zealously opposed in 1814 the annexation 'of Norway to Sweden, and in 1815 the sacrifice of Genoa to Savoy. The opposition was not successful, and these countries now form por tions of States which, if not hostile, are not friendly to Great Britain, when they might have been trained rto rely on her for protection, while they nourished in their own bosoms those principles of democracy and good government of which they both con tained the germs. He moved in the latter case for papers to illustrate the mode in which the Genoese were " handed over like droves of cattle to the King of SARDINIA;" but though there was a "spark of the ancient English spirit" in the representatives of the people, it, could not prevail against the stifling effects of the CASTLEREAGII policy. A sanction was then given by our deliberative asseinlilies to the prir.cipie, thus incorporatin g it with the public law of Europe, that men may be transferred from Rule `to Rule, as if, like slaves, they were property at- tached to an estate. Mr. Letata-roti distinguished himself by energetically opposing that principle. In 1815 he made another step towards gaining the confidence of the masses, and laid d o wn a noble principle, which is the very foundation of all popular government. He voted against the Corn /aw, because " he never would vote in support of a 8,111 against which the wishes of the people had been so strongly, so generally, and so unetiuivocally expressed." The result of this law, which is rapidly undermining the social fabric, proves the compr e pensiveness of that wisdom which defers to the popular voice. Through the dark period which' followed, distress begetting riots, and riots begetting, first massacres, and then coercive laws—all springing from the starving iniquity of the Act of 1815—Mr. LAMB TON was a constant and zealous opponent of the measures of the CASTLEREAGII Administration. He took an active part in a great county meeting, held at Durham, to oppose it, and was one of the most zealous opponents of the Sisc. Acts. The great support which that most un-English . and most Tory o f a ll our Mi n i s tries found in the , House of Commons, str eng th e ned Mr. LAMBTON 'S convic tion that nailing could be done for the people in Parliament without extending the basis of the re presentation. He had been, from the first, a Par liamentary Reformer, and in 1821 proposed a Bill to the House founded on household suffrage, the extinction of rotten boroughs, and triennial Parlia ments. Though he lived to be one of the authors of a Parliamentary Reform JP, which, with alterations, was carried through Parliament, his motion in 1821 was rejected bya very large majority. No alteration of his principles followed, but he saw the inutility of wasting his strength till the tide turned, and he never, we believe, while a Coin- THE SUN, LONDON - , WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 1840. moner, renewed his efforts to procure a Reform of which would give money to the fruit-growers and a the House of Commons. tasteful product to the people ? The plain reason He became comparatively less conspicuous by is that they must then attack a monopoly which is his exertions after 1822, and as the ardour o f youth only less hateful than their own, and rather than gave way to experience, he gradually withdrew from risk the loss of their own tax on the people by stig a scene where nothing was to be gained for the matizing another, they sanction the plunder by law people commensurate to the waste of his own health. of the West India planter, and spread far and wide In 1828 he was raised to th e P eer age, and through the community misery, discord, and hatred. though his Lordship was not a very assiduous at- Nevertheless these are the protectors of society. tendant in the House of Peers, there was no good These are your Gods, 0 Israel. measure which he did not support, and no bad one Fools that we are, like Israel's fools of fore, which he did not oppose.

With the second he had no hand, though he supported it zealously in the House of Lords, and in particular distinguished himself by defending the formation of the metropolitan boroughs, " knowing," as he said, " that, with all its imperfections, it was one of the greatest charters of public liberty, and one of the greatest renovations that ever a Government staked its existence on, or any two Houses of Parliament ever passed into a law." From an infirmity, it is said of temper, but rather we believe from the searching and sincere nature of his mind, which would not allow him to sit down contented with half information, or submit to attain his ends by any round-about methods, his Lord ship did not agree with his colleagues, and remained but a short time in the Ministry. He subsequently went on a special embassy to St. Petersburgh, and with whatever objects he might have been sent, no public benefit appears to have resulted from his mission. 'We remember well, indeed, that he was much complimented by the English merchants resident in that capital, to whom he undoubtedly rendered important services. The want of some splendid success, where, perhaps, success was im possible, made the Russian embassy somewhat un popular with the people, and more unpleasant re marks were made en the splendour he displayed, than praise was bestowed on the services he pers formed. The last and the greatest service he undertook was to restore freedom to Canada, and introduce a constitutional Government into that country. lie went thither as Governor-General. The events of his Lordship's mission are yet too recent to allow us to expatiate on them. He was not successful, and it is generally supposed that the great disap • pointment he suffered from his failure has preyed upon his spirit. Certain it is, that Lord DURHAM, who, before he went thither, was looked up to as the probable leader of the Liberal party, and the future head of a more reforming Adminis tration than that of Lord MELBOURNE, has since sunk almost. out of sight, and he was nearly for gotten before lie died. We may nevertheless ven ture to say that he never before displayed such great abilities as in his government of Canada. His statesmanship was there proved to be of a com manding kind, and the leading views of his Report, in which he cast aside the prejudices he entertained on leaving England, are the basis of the new con stitution proposed for Canada. With many faults, perhaps of temper, of education, of position, Lord DURHAM had many great and good qualities, and we may, in these times, well say of him, that we could have better spared a greater man. Of his Lordship's private life we know nothing ; but the devoted affection of his exemplary lady is the best proof of his domestic virtues. The discussion which took place incidentally in the House of Commons on Monday night, on the Church of Scotland, is not without considerable nterest at the present moment, when the Civil and Ecclesiastical powers are on the eve of a collision, in the case of the Strathbogie ministers. On the merits of the question, out of which the debate arose, namely, whether there should be a grant of the public money for building a hall in which the Church may hold its annual assemblies, we do not hesitate to state our opinion that such a grant is highly improper, not only because it is a squandering of the public money, but still more because it trenches upon the broad principle, that money ought not to be taken by force out of the pockets of one reli gious sect to be applied to the purposes of another. The Church of Scotland has contrived to get on hitherto without such a grant, when she deserved much better of the community than she does at present, or has done of late ; and it must 'oe ad mitted by all impartial persons, th.::, o. more inap propriate season could hardly displaying the munifice than when she has k ois , exhausraj. 'nave been selected for ':,ce of the State towards her placed herself in open rebellion against its and when its own coffers are so Several Bills were last night carried up to the Lords from the Commons. Amongst the petitions presented was one by Lord BROUGHAM from 1,160 persons of colour in Barbadoes, including 1,100 who had been emancipated from slavery, complaining of the constitution of electoral qualifica tion, and of the qualification of the representatives, the franchise being limited to 1,200 persons out of a popu lation of 130,000. Of the 1,200 electors, not above 200 were persons of colour. The petitioners also com plained of the restrictions by which they were pre vented from leaving the island, or carrying their labour to the best market. We have good reason to know that these complaints are well founded, and as long as the planters place such restrictions on labour they have no right to expect a supply of f►ee Ir.:Dour. The Noble Lord, while he admitted that care should be taken that the free people of colour should not be inveigled, said he hoped care would be taken to look into the Act passed by the Parliament of Bar badocs before it was allowed. The Bishop of EXETER again adverted to St. Sul pice, and pn being informed that the ordinance relative to it would not be laid on the table of the House during this Session, and that her MAJESTY might consistently give her assent to it, the Right Rev. Prelate reminded the Ministers that the Goverbor in Council could not make any ordinance affecting the religious establishments of Canada. The case of Dr. 111‘Gut, appointed to be a QUEEN'S Chaplain in Scotland by the Tories, and to whom the Whigs have obstinately refused to give any salary, was brought under their Lordships' notice by the Earl of HADDINGToN, who received a similar answer from Lord MELBOURNE to that given by the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER to Mr. GOULBURN in the House of Commons. The Bishop of LONDON moved the third reading of the Weaver Churches Bill, which, after a few words front the Marquis of WESTMINSTER, Lord LURGAN, and Lord STANLEY of Alderley, objecting to such an application of trust property, wai read a third time and passed. The Commons did not assemble in sufficient num bers to form a House, and the SPEAKER adjourned it till this day. Mr. HUME had a motion for a Bill to re form the Reform Act on a broad and judicious basis, but as nothing could be done with it this session further than printing it and making it known, we can scarcely regret that the Hon. Member was deprived of an op. portunity of bringing it forward. He can have it printed, and between this and the next session the Li beral press can rally the Reformers round his banner, if it be worthy of being followed. One at least of the Pro-Corn-law journals has found out that the landlords do not always take care of the little farmers. There may be here and there one extensive landowner whose ground is chiefly let as fruit orchards, but such cases are, we apprehend, rare, and the greater number of fruit growers, at least in the home counties, are small freeholders and small farmers. To the injury which they will suffer from the present exorbitant price of sugar we have already twice adverted, and on Monday the Post made the following observa tions on the same subject : , The supply of fresh fruits in London is seldom so abun dant as it has been during the present season. The cause of this is probably to be found, i n a great measure, i n the mildness of the weather at an earlier period of the year; • • but there can be no doubt that that th e quant i t i es sent to . the metropolis are much larger than they would otherwise have been, in consequence of the determination to which the growers have come of not preserving their surplus stocks as usual, on account of of the high price of sugar. In some of the more considerable grounds in Kent, and other fruit-growing counties, we u.iderstand crops of the estimated value, under ordinary circumstances, of some hundreds of pounds, will be suffered to rot on the trees, ' the proprietors being deterred by the great advance which has taken place of late in the cost of that commodity from gathering them in for winter purposes. The writer is correct in ascribing to the price of sugar the loss which the fruit-growers will suffer, but wrong, we believe, in ascribing to them the practice of preserving it. That is done by others, but the high price of sugar makes families refuse to preserve, and renders pastry cooks unwilling, or unable to buy fruit for preserving, except at the very lowest terms,which will not pay the expense of gather ing, and so the fruit is suffered to rot on the trees. This is another exemplification of the manner in which the bounties of an all-gracious Providence are prevented from supporting the people by the villanbus legislation of those who call themselves, nevertheless, the protectors of mankind. As there is an abundance of corn in America, and an abundance of persons here ready and willing to pay for it—and as our impious law-makers keep it from the starving people, so there is abundance of sugar lying in our warehouses, or might s9on be there, which could be sold, pay ing an equal duty to that which the west India sugar pays, at less than 60s. per cwt., and the said lawgivers will not allow the people to have it. The farmers, by wanting it, are compelled to see the fruit rot on their trees, and so the laN oiver destroys by wholesale the nourishment which Providence, through the industry of man, supplies for the sus tenance of its creatures. The suffering falls on the humble classes, who could get, were fruit and sugar cheap and plentiful,a share of those nice things which mostthe rich heavily still felt have ;by but the the cu ipteivcautnoirasryolf fruit,ossvyil:h. hb b by small farmers, and by men who •pay high rents. For their interest the landlords pretend to watch For their interest the landlords uphold, they s Corn-laws, which make the rest of the peopl e regard the farmers with hate as their enemies, rattier than with love, as their neighbours and friends. Now, why, if the landlords take such especial care of the interest of the farmer, have they not in sisted on the reduction of the sugar duties, either to compel the SULTAN to fibept such terms as his victorious %Anal might think proper to propose, or to leave to Russia the task of appearing the sole protector of the Ottoman empire. The Ca binetof Marshal SOULT would come to no determina tion, and the facts which transpired relative to the betrayal of the Turkish fleet to the VICEROY were ill calculated to allay the apprehensions of the friends of Turkey. On the accession of M. 'TIERS to office better things were expected, especially as he had ever evinced a wholesome distrust of the aug mentation of Russian influence on the shores of the Bosphorus. But no sooner had the " perfect di plomatist," M. DE PONTOIs, succeeded Admiral RoussiN as Ambassador at Constantinople, than Lord PONSONBY was made aware that intrigues were on foot for persuading the Divan to listen to the overtures of the VICEROY, as the Great Powers were only amusing the Porte with promises which th e y had neither the inclination nor the power to fulfil. Still the ultimatum remained in abeyance, in the expectation that France would at last see knowledge. the sound policy of uni t i ng w i th the other Powers upon all points ; and if, as i s asserte d , they now propose to act independe nt l y o f h er, we repeat that not a step has been tak en , not a note exchanged, r w other ed s e. ve of the t Four not Powers proposal without her byne o o entir e written—every word spoken by the representa tives of the Four Powers on - the P .- -.astern question, was frankly communi c ,. time, and in coy- "-.ea t o h er at t h e same ~mon with her illustrious allies. And - w • hatever be the course now adopted, we "cannot think that France will take any step likely either to endanger the peace of Europe, or to create even a temporary misunderstanding between her Government and that of Great Britain. The true interests of the two nation s are identical, and in nothing more than in keeping Russia in check by maintattting the integrity of the Ottoman Empire. Now, deprived of Syria, Turkey is no longer an independent nation. The Sovereign of Egypt and Syria must ever have it in his power at any mo ment to make himself master of Constantinople. Now ) Syria is here the sole bone of contention. France is for making over Syria to the VICEROY—a cession which assuredly Russia would at heart gladly ratify, as it would make the very existence of the Turkish Empire dependant upon her influence at the Court of Cairo or Alexandria—whichever city MEHEMET ALI may hereafter choose to de clare the capital of his dominions. Fierce diatribes on the Eastern Question, in which England is accused of treachery, and menaced with un compromising hostility, occupy the columns of the Paris Journals of Monday. We had given our Parisian Contemporaries credit for more sagacity than they are displaying upon an affair of which all the details were as well know❑ to the French Government as to the Cabinet of Great Britain. The commerce, the Con stitutionnel, the National, and indeed the whole of the French Papers quote the articles which appeared in the Post and The Sun of Friday last, together with a sum mary of the debate in the House of Commons on Friday night, respecting the alleged secret Treaty agreed to by Russia, Prussia, Austria, and England, for settling the Eastern question without the concur rence of France, which, strange to say, they seem resolved to believe has an existence. It is surely too preposterous to draw such an inference from the mere assertion of an " Old Whig" in a Tory Journal, in tended, no doubt, as a trap to elicit other disclosures from the Noble Foreign Secretary. Were such a mode of sounding Ministers generally resorted to, and were is to be supposed that every report not contradicted by a Minister was correct, there would be an end of all secrecy in negotiations between Governments. But enough has been elsewhere said upon this point. The news from Spain in the French Journals of Mon day consists, for the most part, of attacks upon the conduct of ESPARTERO, Who is now ac cused of coercing his SOVEREIGN, We have seen private letters from Barcelona, of the •list instant, in which the charges preferred against that brave and patriotic officer are proved to be the must odious calumnies. To ESPARTERO the REGENT is indebted for her own life and the Crown worn by her daughter, both of which she would have sacrificed had she continued to I:sten to the mad sug gestions of old PEREZ DE CASTRO and the Camarilla. In fact, ESPARTERO discharged his duty to his country and his Sovereign with singular firmness and fidelity, when he alone was able to save both. That under such trying circumstances he was not abandoned by the Eng lish officers in his suite is to us a matter of congratula tion, whatever the Correspondents of the French Jour nals may state to the contrary : PROGRAMME OF THE FETES OF JULY. (From Galignani of Monday.) FIRST DAY; MONDAY, 27.—Funeral service will be performed in all the parochial and district churches of Paris, in memory of the persons who fell during the Re volution.

The depression in the London Market of yesterday caused all Stocks to commence with a heavy feeling; at the close, however, more confidence prevailed, and prices improved. We have no arrivals, with the exception of the French Mail, and Express from Paris. The latter brings intelli gence of some importance both from Paris and tho East. By accounts from the French capital it appears that a de cree was expected to be issued for the levy of two hundred thousand men. The political intelligence of most importance on the lapis at present is that from Syria, which will throw great weight in the scale for the settlement of the Turkish affairs.

The Right Hon. Baronet ani- madverted in a strain of well-deserved sever.ty on the extravagant proceedings of the Non-Intrusion men, holding them up to the country in the just light of rebels against the laws, while, as ministers of the Gospel, it is their duty to teach, both by precept and example, obedience to the civil authorit►es. He stated his conviction that Lord ABERDEEN'S Bill was founded on just principles, and that the Kirk would never obtain more favourable terms than it offered. But that which it most concerns the Non•lntru sionists to lay to heart is the declaration of the Pre mier in futuro, that had the Bill come down to the House of Commons he would have given it all the support in his power. Thus have they made a somewhat narrow escape, for there is not a doubt that if Lord ABERDEEN had not withdrawn the Bill, which they so fiercely denounced as binding the judicatories of the Kirk hand and foot, it would by this time have been the law of the land. Let them, we repeat, ponder well on this announcement of the Tory leader, and consider what the next Ses sion of Parliament may bring forth, if they proceed i❑ their present course of setting at defiance all legal authority—a course, be it remembered, equally condemned and reprobated by both parties in the State. Sir ROBERT could not understand how the Kirk could claim an ecclesiastical jurisdiction independ ent of the law of the land, when the Kirk itself was established by law. This is what no one can understand. This is the very thing that puzzles every person who tries to comprehend the conduct of the Non-Intrusion clergy. The Church of Scotland was called into existence by the State, and exists only by the State, and yet it presumes to lift up its heel against its creator ! It arrogates to itself, forsooth, a co-ordinate and independent juris diction I It must not be commanded—not it—by the legislative power of the State " to do this, and not to do that," as if it were inferior in authority I Now, a moment's reflection, were they capable of it, must show the " wild men," as they are pro perly termed in the North, that such pretensions are not only urtenable, but perfectly ridiculous, in a State-created and State-supported Establishment. It is only under the operation of the voluntary prin ciple, in its utmost latitude, that men can throw off all the trammels of civil authority in matters of reli gion; and it is because the Non-Intrusionists do not, or will not, see the distinction, that they fall into such mischievous absurdities. If they will dis connect themselves from the State—which, if they were honest, they would have done long ago —they may bring their Non-Intrusion principle into action, without the least interference on the part of the State; but, as long as they choose to mix up their religious with their civil rights, for the sake of cert a i n t em p ora l a d van t ages , th ey must sub mit to the judgment of the civil tribunals on ques tions arising out of this mixed state of affairs. It is, moreover, wisdom to submit with a good grace. Resistance can only demonstrate weakness, and must end in defeat and discredit. Mr. Fox MAULE attempted to vindicate the conduct of the wild party in the Kirk. We were sorry to see a man of his good sense make such an at• emnpt, but the result only proves how defenceless the party are, for even Mr. MAULE, with all his ability, could not make out a decent case for them. Of what use is it to assert that the Non-Intrusion clergy have declared that they " bowed implicitly" to the decision of the laws, as far as civil rights are concerned, when the fact is that they have openly set at defiance the solemn decision of the Court of Session, and of the House of Lords, on points which these high courts have pronounced to be matters of civil right ? Does not this fact show that they claim to themselves the addi tional jurisdiction of deciding what is, and what is not, a matter of civil right? That is a question which must be for ever recurring in the complica tion of temporal and spiritual rights created by the connection of Church and State, and is it to be left to the decision of the clergy ? Are they to be allowed to put an estoppel upon the proceedings of the Courts of Justice whenever they please, by merely saying this is a spiritual, not a civil master Surely no man in his senses will advance such a . . doctrine as this ? yet this is actually the doctrine which must be maintained by those who defend the wild ministers in their resistance to the laws as in terpreted by the tribunals. There cannot be a greater absurdity than to suppose that two supreme and independent powers can exist together, nor a greater proof of i: than that it would be impossible, on such a supposition, to determine what rights of jurisdiction belonged to the one, and what to the other. Each power would claim the right of decid ing that previous question, and interminable anta gonism would be the consequence. The conclusion, therefore, to which all rational persons must come is this, that not only does the civil power possess the right of deciding, through its organs, the Courts of Justice, all civil questions, but also the right— without which the other would be a nonentity—of deciding what questions are civil, and what not. The idea of the existence of a Secret Convention agreed to by four of the five Great Powers, to the exclusion of France, appears to have roused the jealousy of the French press and people to an ex tent hardly credible. Our Gallic Contemporaries have fallen into the error of Mr. HUME ; but they have not ; like the Hon. Member for Kilkenny, waited for any official confirmation of an anonymous rumour, before bringing a charge of bad faith against the Government of this country. We now repeat what we stated on Friday last, in answer to the " distinguished" old Whig who communicates diplo matic gossip to the Post, that no Convention was signed, or proposed to be signed, by the Four Powers of which France was not as fully aware as she is of the existence of the Quadruple Treaty. There neither exists, nor has there existed any Convention among the Great Powers for the settle ment of the Eastern question, of which France is, or was at any time, ignorant. It has been known to all the world fox many months that an ultimatum was drawn up in London, which it was supposed the Great Powers would agree to, which defined the course proposed to be taken for bringing the ques tion to an immediate Issue. After this paper was discussed in the several Cabinets, the representativ es of Russia, Austria, and Prussia agreed to sign it ; but France held back, on the plea that she oh jected to the employment of she coercive h e f felt t convinced measures 0 arrangement the VICEROY , an y d mid that ht be effected between the Porte and I ) the D ACH A without the ostensible in interference of the Great Powers. Lord PALD IERSTON, who was ALMERSTON) was understood to have drawn up the ultimatum of which the three Great Northern Powers approved, did all that lay in his power to convince France that to leave the SULTAN and AT --EHEMET ALI to settle the question themselves, would be virtually DEPARTURES.

HOLKER HALL.—The Earl of Burlington and his bereaved family, have arrived at Holker Hall, the favourite seat of the Noble Earl and of his late lamented lady. This seat has for some time back been undergoing considerable alter ations and improvements, and is in such a state as to admit of the return of its noble owner, whose arrival took place on Wednesday morning last. The Noble Earl Was accompanied by his family as far as Lancaster, where the latter remained all night and proceeded to Holker Hall on the following day. The Earl intends, we hear, to make a long stay with his fa mi.)? at Holker, where he will reside in strict seclusion.— Lancaster Guardian. A BOY GORED BY AN Ox —On Tuesday about noon, as a boy of the name of Samuel Staniforth and his younger brother were observing some oxen which had been landed from the New Holland Ferry-boat, and that were run ning at a furious rate along the Humber Dock Walls, they at tempted to escape, when one of the oxen ran at the boy Samuel and gored him on the head in a shocking manner, so as to cause a laceration of the scalp, upwards of eight inches in ex tent, laying a great part of the skull bare, and in some places depriving it of the periosteum. He was immediately conveyed to Dr. Buchanan, who, with his assistant, speedily got the poor boy dressed and conveyed to his home, which, even in his mangled state, was preferred by him to the superior accommoda tion of the Infirmary. It is but justice to add, that the owner of the ox sent to the mother of the boy (a poor distressed widow ), to assure her nothing should be wanting to assist in recovering the unfortunate lad from his present dangerous situation. Hull Advertiser. _ _ SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—On the morning of Sunday, the 12th instant, the water in the Sankey Canal, near St. Helen's, was observed to rush away wish great im petuosity, and without any apparent cause. In a very short time the whole of the water was drained away from the line of canal between the lock near the Union Company's glass-works, and that near the Ravenhead glass-vvorks—near a mile in length. The cause was at last found to be the giving way of the bottom of the canal over an old coal-pit belonging to Messrs. Clare and Haddock. A large gang of men have since been actively engaged in repairing the damage, and in all proba bility the navigation will be opened again in the course of the week.—Manchester Guardian. TREASURY NOTES.—By an official statement from the Treasury Department, published under date of the Ist inst., it appears that the amount of our outstanding Trea sury notes, issued under the first three Acts of Congress on that subject, is 324,633 dol. 30. And that of the Act of 3d March, 1840, there remain outstanding Treasury Post Notes 2,129,676 dal. 36.—New York Paper. We understand that interdicts have been granted at the instance of Mr. Alexander, the patentee of the Theatre Royal, prohibiting the performances of two persons named Purvis and Miller. They are the managers of two small con cerns, on the Green, where horsemanship, ground and lofty tumbling, and snatches of Msssaniello, Tekeli, &c. &c., were done at the price of two-pence per head.— Glasgow Herald. On Monday Sir F. Burdett sent a cheque for fifty guineas towards the building fund for erecting a theatre for lectures, &c., for the City of Westminster Literary, Scientific, and Mechanics' Institution, the first stone of which building, in Great Smith-street, is to be laid on Thursday next by the Rev. H. Milman, the talented Rector of St. Margaret's. SUSPECTED MURDER IN WALWORTII.— AwFuL EFFECTS or INTOXICATION.—An occurrence which has thrown the neighbourhood of Walworth into great excite ment, took place yesterday afternoon about five o'clock. A man and his wife, named Armfield, have for some time kept a small earthenware shop in East-lane, Walworth-road. They have been long known as inveterate drunkards, and it was not unusual for them to continue in a state of intoxication for weeks together, shutting up their shop far a like period. Yesterday, however, a Mrs. Swindlehurst, living in t:.e next house, had some doubts as to the fate of the woman Armfield, whom she had not seen or heard for many days, and whose shop was closed a much longer period than usual—seven weeks. Mrs. Swindlehurst spoke to policeman 263, P division, who entered the second floor window, and d:scovered the man in bed in an almost senseless state of intoxication, and the woman literally naked, dead, and covered with bruises, lying upon the bare boards. Armfield was taken into custody, and when partially recovered from the effects of drink, in answer to a question as to whether be knew of his wife's death, said " Yes," and added flippantly. " That he supposed she died because she could not live any longer." The wife of Armfield appears to have reach e d the age of fifty. The Coroner's inquest takes place to-morrow.

TO THE • EDITOR OF THE SUN. 0 , SIR, —I have just seen in your Evening Edition of I,et tcrday an abridged report of the proceedings at War'citie, upon the liberation of myself and my excellent co lleg at William Lovett, in which report an error of an irriparlso nature is made, which I trust you will correct in your O tto The erroneous words are, that at the expiration of r, first six months we were indulged with about a q uarter s 4, pound of such meat as would sicken the strongest stonl s , I never made use of any such words, or any other ttle can be construed into a acmplaint of the quality f oo t meat, having no reason to do so and I never said , he allowance was a quarter of a pound twice a week, allowance being half a pound twice a week to each c o f soner. What I said respecting a quarter of a potolbi meat was, that although in the Dietary Table printelp an order of the House of Commone, on the motion o f d of Hawes, it is stated that each prisoner had half a poonrol meat and a quart of soup twice a week, we had no 10 i f ? food at all ; and when we complained of this to the ills trates, we were told by them that if we did not h ave ~1 , 01 a solid we had it in a soluble state ; yet we were Prerdwri to prove that for about two years there had been 1 1 ° - 08 than a quarter of a pound for each prisoner put set a 6r soap, and that both Parliament and people were boilib ceived by the publication of such a report. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, 145 Birmingham, July 28.
