ACTUARY—Mr. J. T. Clement. M. D. Hill, Esq. R. C. Smith, Esq. THAT " Union is Strength," is an anxiom universally admitted, and a strong exemplification of its truth may be found in the establishment of the Licensed Victuallers' School and Asylum. These two very interesting and impor tant institutions afford demonstrative evidence of the power and advantage of united and well-organised exertion. The same energies so laudably displayed in the cause of benevo lence—to support the orphan and protect the aged—when directed to the establishment of a Fire and Life Assurance Society, founded on principles of equity and economy, have proved not only of great national importance, but, from the number and aggregate resources of the Licensed Victuallera, of incalculable advantage to that body at large. When It is zememberod f.,at thore axe now in existence, the Law, the Clerical, and Medical Assurance Societies, each formed primarily for a particular class of persons, it will not appear unreasonable that so large and influential a body of men as the Licensed Victuallers of England—a body exceed ing Ninety Thousand, and whose annual returns of capital approximate to £6o,ooo,ooo—should possess a similar Insti tution. Its extensive and beneficial operations during the past two years, may be quoted as an earnest of its future success. While, however, this Society has been formed by them, and for their mutual benefit, it is not confined exclusively to their own body, but is open to all classes of individuals who may wish to partake of its various advantages. The objects embraced by it are : First.—lnsuring Houses, Furniture, Stock-in-trade, and every description of Personal Property, against Loss or Damage by Fire. Second.—Assurance on Lives and Survivorships, and Endowments for Children. Third.—Granting Immediate, Deferred, and Survivorship Annuities. Fourth.—Purchasing Contingent and Reversionary Pro perty, advancing Money on Annuity, Mortgage, and other Securities. _ _ . FIRE DEPARTMENT.—The Premiums for insuring com mon and double Hazardous Risks, on Goods and Buildings, are on the same scale as other Fire-offices. LIFE DEPARTMENT of this Society enables a Person to provide for his family after his death, and also affords the power of making provisions for himself Life by grant ing Annuities, either Immediate, Deferred, or Survivorship ; indeed all the objects proposed by the National Loan Fund Society can be effected by this Company. The fullest particulars will be furnished upon application to the Agents. LIVERPOOL MEDICAL REFEREE—ALEXANDER HANNAY, Esq., M.D. , Duke-street.

GEORGE ROBINS is iopiructed to SELL by .I.VIL AUCTION, at the Mart in London, on THURSDAY, August 8, at Twelve o'clock, in Two Lots, A VALUABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE Called the FANTON FARM. It includes About 650 ENGLISH ACRES of EXCELLENT LAND, a portion of which had remained uncultivated since the days of the Revolution in France in 1794. Prior to this period it was REMARKABLE FOR ITS FERTILITY, and as justice, has at length prevailed over despotism and vio lence, and the title not only acknowledged, but indisputably good, having been establishsd by a " JUDGMENT OF THE COUR ROYAL," which condemned the Communes to make restitution, with " ALL COSTS AND DAMAGES," consequently it offers to an ENGLISH AGRICULTURIST and unquestionably safe investment, a fine field for his su perior skill, and a certainty in a few years of realizing his brightest, aye his fondest expectations. During the last year a considerable sum has been expended in Farm-yards and Agricultural Buildings, Cottages, &c. The Estate is situate about two miles from the picturesque OLD FORTIFIED TOWN OF MONCONTOUR. It is little more than twelve miles from St. Brieux, the PRINCIPAL SEAPORT TOWN AND CAPITAL OF THE DEPARTMENT OF THE COTES DU NORD, and only about sixty miles from ST. MALO, with FINE MACADAMISED HIGHsROADS, which bound the property above a mile, and which to the south conduct, at six miles distance, to LOUDIAC, a town of 6000 inhabitants ; and about four miles further, to the course of the CANAL FROM NANTES TO BREST, and also to L'ORIENT ; and by way of auxiliary to never ending advantages, it is only about TWENTY HOURS SAIL from SOUTHAMPTON, whence _magnificent Steamers depart several times ia.,tha week, and a pleasant remove from the ISLANDS OF JERSEY, GUERNSEY, and OTHER MARKETS, consume at good prices, the superfluity of grain and cattle, and steam navigation prompts an industrious yeoman to this aid only when great occasion commands. A large portion of the estate may be converted into THE FINEST MEADOW LANDS ; the remainder profitably adapted to sheep and arable farms. There are springs in the land, and water-mills near at hand. THE CLIMATE IS SO MILD, that it is assimilated to "THE SOUTH OF FRANCE." The English are exceedingly well received in Britanny, and there is a manifest desire to avail themselves of the benefit of PRACTICAL ENGLISH AGRICULTURISTS, as the native farmers are at least one century in the rear of English. THE ENTERPRISING AGRICULTURIST CANNOT FAIL TO SUCCEED, EVEN WITH VERY VERY LIMITED MEANS, . A. .4 Z.. if talent and industry be the accompanying attendants. To conclude—by way of encouragement to the English purchaser, Three Pounds per acre only will be required on completion, and the remainder may remain on security of the estate for three or five years. It may be remarked, in conclusion, that a large portion of the uncultivated land has, during the last two years, been ploughed up, and put into the best state. The crop of Corn now growing thereupon will demonstrate this fact beyond any doubt. Also, a very compact snug Farm, called CARFORT, of EIGHTY ACRES, of which TWENTY ACRES ARE IN CULTIVATION, AND NOW IN CROP. Descriptive particulars to be had at the Waterloo Hotel, Liverpool; the Printers of the "Manchester Times" and " Advertiser," and Mr. Fisher, Auctioneer, all of Manches ter ; the Auction Mart; and at Mr. George Robins's Office, London.

TIRE ILLUSTRATED FAMILY BIBLE, in one ele .l. ;taut volume, small folio, comprising also " A COM PLETE CONCORDANCE or - the OLD and NEW TESTAMENTS," is strongly recommended as decidedly most' appropriate and best adapted as a present to a new married couple ; as a token of remembrance to a distant friend, or on birth days or other occasions ; as testified by the following extracts from a considerable list of critical notices : Copy of a letter from the Rev. Dr. RAFFLES. Edge-hill, February, 1839. " Gentlemen,—l am exceedingly _obliged to you for having afforded me a sight of the elegant volumes you sent for my inspection. Your edition of the Bible, in the beauty of its typography, and the taste displayed in its decorations, is certainly unique ; and I trust that many will be induced to make a book, so precious as to its contents, and so graceful in its ornaments, the medium of expressing their regard for those relations and friends to whom they desire to present some token of their esteem. " I am, Gentlemen, yours very truly, " THOMAS RAFFLES. " Messrs. Fisher, Son, and Co., London. " This is an age of wonders as it respects the efforts of the Press. Never was the art of printing so well understood as it is in the present day. The illustrated Family Bible' is a striking proof of the truth of these remarks. As a specimen of typography it will be regarded by the best judges as unri valled in taste and beauty ; and in economy to the public it is no less remarkable. With pictorial illustrations, eminent for their skill and adaptation, a Commentary long established in the public confidence, and a Concordance written on a new and improved principle, it is offered to families at an incon ceivably moderate sum. As a present to a newly-married couple, just entering on the responsibilities of domestic life, it may prove the means of extensive good to generations yet unborn." —Evangelical Magazine, February, 1839. *** The ILLUSTRATED FAMILY BIBLE is also pub lished in TWENTY PARTS, at 2s. 6d. large, or ls. 6d. small paper. Published for the Proprietor, by FISHER, SON and CO., London and Paris, and may be procured through all respect able booksellers in the kingdom.

PORTRAITS AND MEMOIRS OF THE ARCHBISHOPS, BISHOPS, AND OTHER DISTIN GUISHED DIGNITARIES AND CLERGYMEN OF THE UNITED CHURCH OF ENGLAND AND IRELAND, AND OF THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN SCOTLAND, AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. EDITED BY THE Rev. STEPHEN ISAACSON, M.A. IT is intended that this great National Work shall comprise a series of Portraits, accompanied with brief Memoirs, of the Archbishops, Bishops, and other living Dignitaries and Clergymen of the United Church of England and Ireland, both here and in our Colonies, the Episcopal Church of Scotland, and that interesting branch of the Protestant Episcopal Church now flourishing in the United States of America ; and the distinguished patronage with which this undertaking has been already honoured, inspires the Pro prietors with confidence that it will be highly acceptable to the nation at large, as well as to the members of our venera ble and Apostolic Church. The value of this Work will be obvious to all who desire to see the sacred ties of Christian affection drawn more closely between the respective orders and ranks of the Clergy and their Congregations. To the Clergy who may wish to possess , Portraits of the Bishops who ordained them, and are over them in the Lord," and likewise of their College and Clerical friends ; and of living authors whom they have read and esteem, the present Work will be full of interest and pleasure. To Parochial Congregations also it will afford high gratifica tion to be able indiviothally to possess themselves of a fdithful Portrait of the Pastor from whom they receive the advantages of religious instruction and spiritual consolation, and whom they have been led to " esteem highly for his work's sake." The numerous Lay friends and relatives of the Clergy will also have an opportunity of obtaining accurate Portraitures of those who are endeared to them by the ties of nature. In all these, and many other respects, this Work cannot fail of becoming of great utility and interest to the vast body of the Nobility, Clergy, and Gentry of the British Empire. The Portraits will be selected without the least regard to political or other differences of opinion. Eminence in Ecclesiastical rank, intellectual abilities, learnio:7, virtue, or religious zeal, being the great objects proposed to be recorded. The Memoirs will be confined to a review of the academical course and public life of the Clergyman whose likeness is given, together with a list of any religious or literary works which he may have published. Facts will be stated, while all critical and controversial observations likely to offend will be excluded. It has been suggested by very high authority, that it would add much to the interest and value of the work, if each Clergyman would furnish a short exposition of a passage of Scripture. The Proprietors cheerfully accede to this suggestion, and respectfully solicit the favour of such communications. And as only about four pages on san average can be appropriated to each Memoir and Scriptural illustration, brevity will be highly desirable. The Portraits will be engraved in the first style of the Art, and neither trouble nor expense spared to render this great Work worthy of the noble cause to which it is dedicated, and one of the most splendid that has ever appeared. A Part, containing three Portraits, with their respective Memoir, will be published on the first day of every alternate month, in a thick, handsome wrapper, for the protection of the Plates. The size of each engraving will be nine inches by seven. s. d. Price of each Part, India Proofs 21 0 Ditto ditto, Imperial Quarto Proofs 12 0 For the convenience of Subscribers and others, each Plate may lie had separately. Proofs of the Plates,before Letters, on Large Paper , India 21 0 Ditto Lettered, ditto India 10 6 Ditto ditto ditto Plain 7 6 All Portraits will be given in full canonicals • and those Clergymen .ho have approved likenesses will oblige the Proprietors by lending them for the purposes of this Work. They will be Carefully preserved, and returned free of expense ; but where no Portrait exists, the Proprietors will have one painted expressly for the Work at their own expense. Part 1. is now ready, containing a Portrait and Memoir of THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY. THE BISHOP OF ROCHESTER. THE REV. HENRY MELVILL. RYALL'S CONSERVATIVE PORTRAITS.

When Madame Vestris performed the other evening at Birmingham, she was encored in one of her favourite songs, and. after a good deal of soli citittion, came forward again with her guitar about her neck. Whilst affecting to prelude, amid a mingled noise of cheers and hisses, one of the deities in the gallery called out, " sake ! dunna keep us here all night in this way !" The affronted lady immediately shouldered her guitar, tossed up her head, and curtseying to the boxes, darted an indignant and scornful glance at the gallery, whilst she walked majes tically off the stage. She subsequently refused to fulfil an engagement at Lichfield, through indignation at this inter ruption.—Staffordtkire Gazette. EXTENSIVE CARPET AND FURNITURE WAREHOUSE, HANOVER-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

AGENERAL OUTLINE of the ANIMAL KINGDOM. By THOMAS RYMER JONES, F.Z.S., Professor of Com parative Anatomy in King's College, London. Five Parts, containing 106 Engravings, are now published. Fifteen Parts, price 2s. 6d. each, will complete the work. " The principles of zoological arrangement, as based upon the organization of animals, is the groundwork of this excel lent publication ; and Mr. Jones. by the simple elegance of his style, and the plain, though, at the same time, scientific delineation of the general outline, &c., has occupied a position in the literary world which has been too long neglected. The extreme beauty and accuracy of the embellishments cannot fail to secure the approbation of the public. It will decidedly prove one of the most valuable additions to our popular libra ries of science and art."—Christian Remembrancer, Dec. JOHN VAN VOORST, 1, Paternoster-row.

SCURVY in the GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED ARTIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral - Marmoratum. MONS. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect. fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and fi llihabitants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in, an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without .springs, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility at the following Paris charges : A single Artificial T00th....

During the Summer months, the additional caloric or heat caused by the action of the sun acts as a kind of stimulus upon the human frame ; and, by inc.-easily , the circulation, induces a quicker growth of the Hair. It is therefore at this period, that this important integument of the head requires additional care in its DRESS, CULTURE, and PRESERVATION, as the constant perspiration which exudes through the pores, tends to dry and discolour the hair, and causes it to split at the ends, as may be par ticularly observed through a microscope in hot weather. These symptoms, which are considerably augmented by Sea Bathing, but too plainly intimate—that the flair, during the debilitating heat of Snmmer, requires a powerful and effica cious nourishment—such only, indeed, as can be found in that truly fragrant and pellucid Oil—Rows. AN D's MAC ASSAIL. The restorative, preservative, and beautifying properties of which are unequalled. It renders the hair silky and glossy ; induces curl ; preserves it in decorative formation—and, as a conservator of the hair, from the effects of warm exercise and sea bathing, will be found peculiarly felicitous !

ROWLAND'S ODONTO, OR PEARL DENTIFRICE. WARMTH OF CLIMATE is known to be extremely preju dicial to the Teeth—a reason why Summer is most inimical to their welfare, independent of the pernicious influence of the acidity of fruits peculiar to the season, which tend to cloud and corrode the surface or enamel. The Odonto is compounded of various Oriental Herbs—the chief virtues of which consist of their cleansing, anti-scorbutic, and preser vative powers. As a whole, the Pearl Dentrifice bestows the most radiant whiteness on the enamel, accompanied by a beautiful polish, which considerably adds to their beauty. At the same time it will be found to thoroughly eradicate all tartar and concretion, remove all decay, fix loose teeth firinlY in their sockets, render the gums firm and red, and, above all, is distinguished for its aromatic influence in giving sweet ness to the breath.-2s. 9d. per Box, duty included.

HAY HARVEST.—The weather, since our last publication, has been so wet as considerably to retard the ingathering of hay, the crops of many fields in our vicinity, which had been cut previously to that time, still remain out.—Salopian Journal.

BLACKPOOL.—This fashionable and rising watering place is at present very full of company, and several families of distinction have taken up their temporary abode in its neigh bourhood. The attractions of Blackpool are so well knoWn that there is no need for us to descant on them : the public appear to appreciate them, as the crowded promenades amply testify. The beautiful little village of Lytham, too, has its share of visitors, who seem to enjoy their emancipation from the smoke and bustle of our manufacturing towns.—Black burs Standard. " Therapia, July S. " The Porte has received intelligence that a battle has been fought in the neighbourhood of Aleppo, and that the Turkish army has been destroyed. The wrecks of it had recrossed the frontier, but it was not stated whether or not the Egyptian army had purshed them." The highly important news communicated by this despatch is confirmed, with the addition of some interesting details, in the following telegraphic communication from Egypt : " The Consul-general of France, at Alexandria, to the Pre- -40 sident of the Council : "Alexandria, July 6. "The Egyptians under the order of Ibrahim, having at tacked the Turkish army, commanded by the Seraskier Pacha, at Hezib, bey on d Aleppo, the latter abandoned •he field of battle after a combat of two hours. All the materiel, cannon, muskets, and ammunition fell into the hands of he Egyptians. Ibrahim wrote the above on the 25th of 3 .ne, and in the tent of the Turkish general-in-chief. He had re turned to Aintab on the 28th, but had ordered three regime Its of infantry and three of cavalry to advance on Orfa bud Diarbekir." No great effect was produced on the Bourse by this in tel ligence. It was, however, generally believed that Meht, Ali would take advantage of this success, and at once I °- claim his independence. The moment is unusually prof ::i -ous for him. At the head of a victorious army, and oppt cd to a youthful sovereign to whom he has not yet professed .i'- legiance, nothing but a dread of the hostility of the great powers, who profess to constitute themselves guardians of the inviolability of the Turkish empire, seems to stand in the way of his re-erecting the throne of the Pharaohs. The diffi culties of this question will now begin to be felt. France and England can preserve peace by sea, but how are they to carr on a system of intervention by land ? Their wrath was t, , fall on the aggressor, but the army of the aggressor is already destroyed, and should 'Mehemet Ali keep within the Syrian territory ; Russia can have no pretence for taking the field as the pretended auxiliary of the Sultan. A BILL To allow dealers in spirits to retail foreign spirits c' liqueurs, not to be drunk on the premises, on taking out +a additional license for that purpose, and to give furthe.• power for granting permits to dealers in and retailers of spirits. The words printed in italics are proposed to be inserted in committee. Whereas an act was passed in the sixth year of the reign his late majesty King George the Fourth, mauled, " An act . to repeal several duties payable on excise licenses in Grew Britain and Ireland, and to impose other duties in lieu theree' . and to amend the laws for granting excise licenses ;" at whereas it is expedient to allow persons licensed as dealers i t spirits under the said recited act, on taking out an additions: license for the purpose, to sell foreign spirits and liqueurs i:: smaller quantities than they are now by lawauthorised to dc and also to enable such dealers to obtain permits for removal of one gallon of spirits, and to permit retailers spirits to return spirits to rectifiers and dealers ; be it then - fore enacted, by the queen's most excellent majesty, by aid with the advice and consent of the lords spiritual and tem poral, and commons, in this present parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, that from and after the passing of this act, it shall be lawful for any person duly licensed as a dealer in spirits under the said recited act, to take out and receive an additional license authorising and empowering such person to sell by retail any quantity not being less than one reputed quart bottle of foreign spirits or liqueurs, not to be drunk or consumed on the premises. And be it enacted, that for every such additional license there shall be paid an annual duty of excise of five pounds, which said duty shall be under the collection and management of the commissioners of excise, and shall be raised, recovered, paid, and accounted for in the same manner and under the same enactments, provisions, pains, penalties, and forfeitures as other license duties under the collection and management of the commissioners of excise are raisedr recovered, paid, and accounted for. _ And be it enacted, that every such license shall be in such form and shall contain such particulars as the commissioners of excise shall direct, and shall be signed, granted, and is sued by the proper officers of excise duly authorised to grant licenses ; and every such license shall continue in force from the day of the date thereof until the fifth day of July follow ing, on which day every such license shall expire, and shall be then renewed ; and all the enactments, provisions, pains, penalties, and forfeitures contained in the said recited act shall apply to and be in force in respect of the said additional license, in the same manner as if the same had been one of the licenses originally included in the said act. And be it enacted, that it shall be lawful for any dealer in spirits to request and obtain a permit for and to sell, send out, and deliver one gallon of spirits, provided that such one gallon shall be one particular description of spirits, and shall not be made up of smaller quantities of spirits of different descriptions. And be it enacted, that when any retailer of spirits shall have received into his stock any spirits, and shall be desirous of returning such spirits to the rectifier, compounder, or dealer from whom the same shall have been purchased and received, it shall be lawful for such retailer to request and obtain a permit for the removal of such spirits from the stock of such retailer back to the stock of the same rectifier, com pounder, or dealer from whom such spirits shall have been purchased and received : provided always, that every request note for such permit shall specify such spirits to be returned spirits, and such permit shall also describe such spirits as returned spirits. And be it enacted, that this act may be amended or re pealed by any act to be passed in this present parliament. THE BIRMINGHAM RIOTS. (From the Correspondence of the Morning Herald.) BIRMINGHAM, MONDAY NIGHT, 12 O'CLOCK.—The town continued to wear an aspect of perfect tranquillity until a few minutes before 11 o'clock, when a watchman was heard in Park-street, springing his rattle, and crying " fire in Wal mer-lane !" I immediately hastened to the spot, to which I found hundreds of the working classes hurrying. Before I arrived at the fire, which I found to be at a timber-yard in Lancaster-street, situate in the extreme north part of the town, several engines passed rae, two of.which were guarded by the dragoons. I haVe merely time to state that large numbers of the working classes are moving towards the fire, which was nearly got under when I left the spot, and they evinced by their groaning and hooting at the solitary dragoon as he passed to and fro between the scene of conflagration and head quarters, a disposition to riot. A strong military , force is moving towards the spot, and nothing beyond a very ineffectual attempt at disturbance can possibly take place. The fire is said to have occurred accidentally. The meeting of the " two thousand," at Edgbaston, turned out to be one of a few persons only. BIRMINGHAM, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, 5 o'clock.—The congregation of the working classes at the fire last night did not create the least disturbance. The military and civil force attended in such overwhelming numbers that the chartists must have seen the utter impossibility of getting Up a successful riot. The origin of the fire, which last night was considered to be purely accidental, is now a subject of much doubt ; but the general opinion appears to be that the . premises were not set on fire. us Rumours are spread in all quarters that the chartists are holding secret meetings. I have endeavoured to trace these rumours to something like an authentic source, hut without being able to discover that they have currency from persons who are likely to know anything of the movements of the chartists. 1 have also upon this matter made a very close inquiry among the movement party, and I am satisfied that, if any such meetings are taking place, they are unknown to the leading chartists themselves. A considerable number of threatening letters have been sent to parties who have, or who are considered to have, opposed themselves to the views and objects of the chartists. From the style of the letters it is a question whether the majority of them are not from a whig-radical manufactory. A thousand rumours are floating through the town relative. to the state of the surrounding districts, and particularly about that of the north. The feeling with respect to the ex cited state of the latter has been strengthened by the notice which Lord John Russell gave last night, in the House of Commons, of his intention to apply for 5,000 additional troops. If the information which the agitating party here have re ceived from the north can be depended upon, his lordship has some reason to be under apprehension respecting the conse quences of whig agitation. The following is an extract from a letter from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, addressed by a chartist of that place to a leading agitator of this town. The `40,000' is rather an outrageous computation of the chartist force that is said to have ceased work ; but I give the extract because it appeari to present a pretty clear view of the feelings of the pike-and-pistol leaders in the north : "I must inform you that the present state of this town and surrounding country prevents us from thinking about any but one thing. No sooner did we hear of the brutal attack of the London police upon the man of Birmingham than trade was at a stand, and at the same time the arrest of two of our delegates completely exasperated the colliers, and on Tuesday about 10 of the collieries struck work ; and on the following morning numbers snore laid aside work, and had it not been for the exertion of some of the council of the Northern Poli tical union, the consequences would have been fatal to both life and property. Wehave at length prevailed upon them to return to their work, but I assure you that there were no less than 40,000 men out at the t me, and nothing is talked about but arming, and the excitement still continues as the accounts from Birmingham arrive. All are at work, but ready at a moment's notice to return and get our demands settled. I shall be obliged to you for an account of the real state of Bir mingham, as the reports are so conflicting, and I will send you a Liberator (the Northern Liberator, a chartist paper) of this week. " My time is so occupied I have hardly any time to myself, I attended three meetings on Saturday in different parts of the country about Newcastle, and never did I see such excite ment. All the men came armed, determined to defend them selves from any attack upon them by the authorities, as in Birmingham ; but all has gone off well as yet, GOD knows how long." Harney, the chartist, who is stopping in the town, has, I learn, received a letter from the north, informing him that the colliers and others of the working classes in that part of the country will not wait until the 12th of August to com mence the " sacred month." They have ordered him to go up to London immediately, and declare to the convention that that revolutionary body will lose the confidence of the men of the north unless the sacred !month is commenced instanter. A man of the name of Gregg, who was apprehended last night, on suspicion of setting fire to Mr. Bourne's premises, was brought up this morning for examination. He proved an alibi, and was consequently discharged. The following petition to her Majesty has just been put in circulation. It is thought that a very large number of sig natures will be attached to it : " TO THE QUEEN S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " Madam,—We, the undersigned inhabitants o f Birming ham, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, humbly pray that the charter of incorporation granted to this borough 'in October last may be annulled. " The incorporation of the town has not promoted the good order or conducted to the prosperity of the inhabitants, but, on the contrary, local agitation has been increased, and local feuds engendered : offices of honour and emolument have been monopolised, general dissatisfaction prevails, and the inhabitants of this populous and important borough are threatened with heavy rates to support municipal government which is entirely destitute of their confidence. " Under these circumstances we pray that your Majesty will cause the said charter of incorporation granted to the borough of Birmingham to be annulled." The town is perfectly quiet.
