The more pros perous a country has become under a long peace and a free government, the stronger are the pledges which it has given for the maintenance of that peace.

(From the Morning Chronicle.) A Tory Contemporary agrees with us in our recent remarks upon the working classes, that those classes are, to a considerable extent, alienated from the civil Government, but denies that they are also alienated tram the Established Church. The evidence in both cases is precisely the same. That which we had chiefly in view was the proof afforded by the recent publica tion, entitled " Chartism," and the circumstances and connexion in which that work appeared.

And thus it is that topics of essential moment to the well-being of millions are discussed.

What hold has the Established Church upon the working classes as a body ? What power has it until a new spirit shall be infused into its efforts, until wholesome reforms shall have reduced its unsightly ano malies, until greater sympathy with the masses shall have won for it a heartfelt confidence, what power has it to improve the general condition of the working classes, and reunite them with the middle and upper ranks as one harmonious, peaceful, and progressive so ciety ? Norse at all ; or none which is in the least ade quate to the occasion and the work. New churches, it is said, would be filled if they were built. We ask by whom, and to what extent ? Voluntary additions to these edifices are a confessed failure. " There are," we are told, " some proprietary chapels, or in other words, churches on the voluntary system, which the people do not frequent." But, then, it is added, that wherever the new church is in connection with the old pa rish church it is immediately filled. Without scruti nizing the matter of fact, we will simply inquire whe ther any one has the hardihood to affirm that they arc chiefly filled by the working classes ? The contrary is notorious. They are principally occupied by those who can afford to pay. Where a parish contains 20,000 inhabitants, and its church wi l only seat three or four hundred, it is not strange that a few hundreds more sliould be found ready to occupy a second church. For that church the entire parish is taxed and rated. The spectacle is renewed of the poor suffering a forced contribution for the accommodation of the compara tively wealthy. The working classes feel that point much more strongly than they do any benefit from the superadded ministrations. This state of things is very lamentable, and very different from what it might be, were such an institution as the Church wisely and ener getically directed to the improvement of the labouring population. But it is the fact, whatever be the bearing of that fact on Whiggistu or Toryism. (From the Morniag Herald.) SPIRIT of the PUBLIU JOURN ALS FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Globe.) The Times has been wont to reproach the Radicals with their poverty. " Unwashed artisans," is a phrase of contempt which has become nearly proverbial by fre quent use in its columns to those Reformers who are engaged in daily labour. " Hungry Radicals" is another of the appellatives by which the labouring classes who do not belong to the " Conservative Operative Asso ciations are reproached. " unwashed," " hungry Radicals" of Manchester arc—in perfect consistency isith the coarse, unfeeling, insulting reproaches cast by the Tories on their poverty—now courted to aid the party which has poured upon them every contumely, and inflicted upon them every personal and relative in jury, but the hope of " a good dinner !" An appeal is made to their stomachs, rather than to their heads ; and a " mess of pottage" is by its delicious fumes ex pected to produce a perfect oblivion of both associations and antipathies. " On the 16th of the present month the Conservative Association of that important district assembled to cele. brate their anniversary ; and they did so to the number of more than 500 of the most influential men in the division, noblemen and gentlemen, clergy and yeomanry, tradesmen, and other substantial and respectable persons, and in a manner which we are aware is very obnoxious to the Libe rals, but of which we suspect the fashion will not readily be abolished—that is to say, by a good dinner. It is a practice, indeed, which we should be delighted to see ex tending itself to the Liberals themselves ; not only because we like to see our neighbours happy, whatever their poli tics, but also because we have a shrewd notion that if they dined more they would be less liberal. On this occasion the Conservatives—albeit their lot is not at present cast among the loaves and fishes—gave a hearty example to the surly Radicals of the sort of stomach with which good poll. `icians should encounter the Whigs."

LAW IN TELLIGENCE. SHERIFF S CO URT, SEPT. 25. (Before Mr. Sergeant ARABIN.) WATSON V. ATKINSON. The plaintiff in this case was the inventor of a new method of applying gas to heating the machinery used in packing and pressing merchandize, and the defend ant, a packer and calenderer, residing in Lamb's-murt, Chiswell street. In October, 1839, the plaintiff was employed to apply his invention to the machinery in Mr. Atkinson's warehouse, and having done so, it was found necessary that a large tube or flue, about 60 feet in length, should be erected, to render the inven tion effectual, by causing a draught of air to pass through the calendar. The plaintiff accordingly pro cured the materials for its construction, and whilst recting it, the defendant s,iid he would allow only Bd. per foot, although the fair and adequate charge, and that which plaintiff always received, was 2s. per foot. 'The consequence was, the offer being refused, the pre viously-executed work was useless, and the materials were on the plaintiff's hands, perfectly valueless. In all, the plaintiff claimed the sum of 171. 75., as his right of patent, and for work and materials. For the defence, it was contended that the invention did not answer the purpose for which it was intended ; however, defendant admitted being indebted in the sum of 101., which he paid into Court. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the full amount claimed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Mr. Stock&le — waited yesterday upon the Lord Mayor, for the purpose of stating that he had written a letter to Alderman Harmer, on a subject treated of in the Dispatch newspaper. The LORD MAYOR. mentioned that the Court of Aldermen, to which Mr. Stockdale was directed to pre sent his petition, had been postponed, because there was no business to be done. Mr. Stockdale said it was extraordinary that it should be supposed that no business was to be done, when the members must have known that he was to have attended upon the most important business to that Court, and to the Corporation. He then pulled a copy of the following letter out of his pocket, and havitig stated that he had left a copy at the Dispatch office that morning, read it aloud. " To the Worshipful Mr. Aldorman Harmer, and the Editor of the IVeelely Dispatch. " WORSHIPFUL SIR, AND AIR. EDITOR—Since you have evaded and avoided all my numerous proposals for an investigation, private and public, I hereby give you notice, agreeably to your own challenge, that I, unconrected with any party, charge against the Weekly Dispatch, that it contains paragraphs which falsely and blasphemously asserts our Saviour and Redeemer, the Lord Jesus Christ (whose advent and personal reign I believe close at hand) to be the man who stole the ass. " You will, therefore, by producing the paper which contains such paragraph before the Lord 111Ayar, Alder man, or Common-Lull, be able to shoo/ anything which preceded preceded or followed, to qualify that most horribly blas phemous, wilful, and un-Christian lie. " JOHN JOSEPH STOCKDALE, " Sept. 25, 1840. " In person and alone." The Loup MAYOR—I cannot take cagniz.snce of this matter, Mr. Stockdale. Mr. Stockdale said that he had no personal feeling against Alderman Harmer, but he knew that Alderman Harmer held a great engine in his hand for good or for evil. As he (Mr. Stockdale) believed it was ap plied to evil purposes, he felt that he was justified in exposing its tendency. Christ coinniandil that his name should not be reviled. What could the imputa tion which had been quoted in the letter be called? The Alderman was, he supposed, prepared to show from the context that the language was not unwarrantable. The LORD MAYOR, who was evidently uneasy whi:e Mr. Stockdale was spe.iking, said that he was placed in a very delicate situation, and he hoped that a stop would be put to the observations. He stated that on the 29th instant an opportunity would be afforded to Mr. Stockdale, as a member of the Livery, to star d forward in the Guildhall, when the hall should be given up to the Sheriffs, and to bring forward the subject before his brother Liverymen. Mr. Stockdale said that it was quite impossible to enter into an investigation before a body of 10,000 or '2,000 people. The LORD MAYOR—I would advise you to go to the hall if you have any charge to bring. I cannot, you know, take cognizance of it. Mr. Stockdale then left the police-room, stating, as far as our reporter could understand, that Alderman Harmer had declared to him in the year 1837, that he had no idea of taking upon himself the Mayoralty. It will be seen from the following correspondence, that Mr. Joseph A,dy has started into public existence once more : _ .

Mr. Joseph Atly will perceive the above advice is given without his demand of five shillings." Mr. Ady, it is unnecessary to state, did not pay the postage upon either of his letters.

ACCIDENTS ON it A ILROADs.—It is, we un derstand, the intention of one of th e most able and influ ential men in the Corporation of London, to bring the sub ject of the numerous dreadful acciaents which have occurred upon rallroads, under consideration in the Court of Corn mon Council, with the view to petition Parliament, or adopt some other measure to diminish the hazard to life and limb. It is the opinion of the gentlemen to whom we allude, that the Government should appoint a Board of the most eminent engineers in England, who should he empowered to call before them all the engineers employed by the several Railway Conipanys, and examine them as to their knowledge of engines, and to their other qualifier_ tions ; th a t t h e Board should give certificates as to the BO W- ,j TREE 7'. capabilities of those who should undergo such examination, A short time before the closing of the Court yester- c a h mi that those who were not approved o: should be dis lie calculates that the Engineer Board might day evening, William Rogerson, a letter-Barrier, em- be a c r o g n e s d '' who lice ti n tn se ted ,ii on the o t sa k me e c rineipl r e as the l Tri d nityßoard, ployed in the General NA-office, was brought up by feels con- Nicholas Pierce, Inspector of the A division, and placed &lent that it i 4 s ld t h e ' n ' o diffi 'a 7ul e t 1) a v ft e c s r 'e t , :in a d ‘ cc rienee as England at the bar before Mr. Jardine, cnarged with stealing such a multitud e of engineers greatot m talent u and amon ;' s several letters containing sums of money, which came posse;ses, a sufficient nhinher to come his possession by virtue of his situation. forward, without fee or reward, and form a Board for the Mr. Phillipa, clerk in the office of Mr. Peacock, soli- preservation of the lives of their fellow creatures.

J o nes were both under the impression that the latter of llecr was performing part of the duty of President of the Mess Committee when he carried the annoying message to Captain Reynolds. They are both in error, at least as far as has ever come under my observation in the service. The duty of the President and Mess Committee consists in assembling, when ordered, to overlook the pla'e and mess utensils--to see that the officers' mess bills are discharged —and other duties of that rature ; but everything which relates to the conduct of the office-s at table is under the ehar4e and responsibi ity of the President of the day and senior officer presenf—n:ore particularly with re • Bard to wine, which should only be ordered by the Vice- President, under the sanction of the President ; And very irregularity in which ought to be checked by ti cm alone. If Lord Cardigan had himself desircli Captain Reynold! not to act so again, the public would have heard nothing more of this affair ; and if contrary to the rules, it would not have been repeated. Instead of finding fault with the trifling mistake as to the exact words (pot-house or tavern) used by Lord C.lrdigau. I fear his Lordship has much more cause to regret their too 14iniful transmission by Captain .IJtvis. In justice to the Earl of Cardigan, it might be supposed that the expression used by him to Captain Jones (an oft ;r with whom be is lit touch intimacy) were not intended tl be delivered ver batim to Captain Reynolds. If Captain Jones had taken this softening down upon himself, all t'ae suheque et bad ree:ieg would n ave en avoid'd, part , eularly as he and Captain Reynold , were not on very friendly terms ; but :111Ce they were reported, Lc rd Cardigm is answerable for them , and for all the disunion in the regiment which hai been the e?ose4uenee.....Letfer in (iA Eve;v:;l9 pGqier. MANCHESTER. SEPT. 24. FOUNDATION OF AN INDEPENDENT COL LEGE AT MANCHESTER.—DISTRESSING AND FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT. Yesterday was the day fixed for laying the founda tion-stone of a new college, intended for the training of Independent ministers, at Withington, near Manches .er. '1 he ceremonies connected with this event were marred by an accident of a very alarming nature, which might easily have proved fatal to a great extent. The weather was extremely unfavourable, the rain falling heavily during the whole of the morning. Not withstanding this, a large and respectable body of per sons assembled on the spot, which is about three miles distant from Manchester. A temporary platform was erected in the immediate vicinity of the intended build ing, capable of containing about 100 persons. As the rain continued to fall heavily, the platform was, by gene ral consent, given up to the ladies, the gentlemen sheltering themselves as well as they could with their umbrellas. The proceedings had just com menced by singing one of Dr. Wetts's hymns, when the accident• occurred which put a stop to the whole proceedings. The platform, which consisted of two lengths of heavy planks, joined and supported in the middle by a beam which rested on two uprights, sud denly gave way in the middle, owing to one of the up rights having broken. As the supporters at each end remained firm, the whole of the structure sank down in the middle, and every person on it was precipitated through the chasm thus formed upon the ground. A scene ensued which it is impossible to describe ; the shrieks of the sufferers were most heartrending ; and the utmost consternation took place amongst the rest of the company, the gentlemen present being filled with anxiety for the fate of their female relatives, who were nearly all upon the platform. When the confusion had somewhat subsided, the most prompt means were resorted to for rescuing the unfortunate sufferers. The workmen on the spot rend ered effective assistance, and the joyful tidings were soon made known that no lives were lost ; but the feeling which this was calculated to inspire was in a great m i easure qualified when the nature and extent of the injuries which many ladies had suffered were ascertained. Miss Hadfield. daughter of G. Hadfield, Esq:, the gentleman who was to lay the foundation stone, had her leg severely bruised ; it was at first supposed to be fractured, but this was happily not the ease. Mrs. Hadfield was also severely hurt, as were Miss Bard and Mrs. Armitage ; Mrs. Mossley, of Hulree, received a severe injury on her arm ; Mrs. Tate of Greenlcys, had her foot much bruised. Many ladies were seen with their faces co vered with blood, and their dresses were strangely dis figured. Miss Alice Brooks, daughter of Samuel Brooks, Esq., banker, who resides near the spot, was on the platform, but happily escaped without serious Injury. Several other ladies, whose names were not ascertained, were more or less injured. Unfortunately, no surgeon was on the spot, and, owing to the rain, which fell heavily all the time. and the confusion necessarily consequent on such an ocecur rence, a considerable time elapsed before the sufferers could be extricated, and carriages procured to convey them home. This being done, the ceremony of laying the stone was very briefly gone through. In the after noon the members and friends assembled in Rushohne road Chapel, where a public thanksgiving took place for their providential deliverance from more fatal results. A cold collation was afterwards served in the Chorl ton-upon-Medlock Town-hall, to which about 200 per sons sat down, Dr. Reflles, of Liverpool, presiding, Se veral speeches were made in reference to the late dis. tressing occurrence. It was stated that 15,000/. had been subscribed towards the expense of erecting and maintaining the college, but that 10,000/. more would be required. G. Hadfield, Esq., announced his readi ness to contribute 10 per cent. on the total amount that might be subscribed at that meeting, whereupon several very handsome donations were mede, - including 5001. by Samuel Brooks, Esq., and several donations of 501. Many gentlemen announced their intention of doubling their former subscriptions. Upon inquiry this morning it was ascertained that most of the sufferers were in a fair way of recovery.— Correspondent of an Evening Paper. MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

P. Sugar in the early part of the week, and the demand frcm both grocers and refiners was very limited, for both brown and yellow sorts, the purchases on Tuesday and Wednesday amounting to only 480 hhds and trcs, but the firmness of holders prevented any decline in prices; yes terday, however, in consequence of the merchants having submitted to a reduction of 6d per cwt, the trade were were tempted to come forward more freely, still there was not much increase in the demand, the quantity sold amount ing to only 350 blids and trcs, the bulk at 82s to 87s for low to fine yellow ; the reduced stocks held by the trade everywhere caused some holders to expect that a much better demand will exist shortly for Sugar, consequently they are not disposed to sell on easier terms. Te-day the merchants refused to submit to any further reduction, and the rates of yesterday were supported ; fro ti the Grocers a brisk demand prevailed for both brown and yellow kinds, but the Refiners bought with caution, still they were more desirous to do business.
