THE CASE of JANE WILLIAMS, a native of Llanfyllan, in the County of Montgomery, for many years well-known as the Chief Manager of the Somerset Coffee-house, Strand, London, being a person deserving of great commiseration. A few friends of Miss Williams have determined to make her des titute condition known, with a view, if possible, of raising a sum stif flci ent to invest in the purchase of a small permanent income for her. To those who knew Miss Williams, either in her public capacity or private li!e, little need be said; but to those who are strangers to her it may be truly observed, that a more kind-hearted and •attentiVa person is hardly to be known. Having served the late Mr. Sanders, formerly the Proprietor of the Hotel, with great fidelity for a period of thirty-three years, he be queathed to her by his Will, a legacy of 700/. ' • but unfortunately at his death, his circumstances did not admit of Miss Williams benefit ting by the provision he had intended for her. Thus situated, she was assisted to take the adjoining house as a lodging-house; but whilst there, and still managing the Hotel, she was suddenly seized with a most severe attack of paralysis, which wholly deprived her of the use of her right side, and partially of her speech, and is now (notwithstanding she was, through the kindness of a benevolent friend, sent to an hospital at 13ath, intel,ded for persons of her con dition, and kept there two seasons) without the prospect of recovery. Being thus severely afflicted and wholly destitute, it is believed that her painful situation need only be known to induce many bene volent strangers to unite with her friends in subscribing a fund ca pable, at her time of life, of realising a small income for her absolute wants, which, indeed, will be an act of generosity and charity, and the means of saving a most deserving person from pining her remaining days in the misery of a workhouse. In conclusion and in justice to Miss Williams, it should be stated, that during many years she was the principal support of her aged parents. Subscriptions will be thank fully received by Messrs. Twinings, bankers, 215, Strand ; Mr. Wm.

Jones, Yearsley, and Howell, solicitors, Welsh Pool ; all of whom can bear testimony to the truth and deserving nature of the case.

We have fallen on evil days and evil tongues. "We are knaves all—believe none of us!" We have powerrul enemies—but these we could face, brave, and conquer. We have false friends, and these are the most po‘A erful enemies of all. WE CANNOT TRUST EACH OTHER. Our union is a rope of sand. Our committee appeals to us on behalf of four candidates, but each can didate canvasses only for himself. They have no faith but in a common hypocrisy. They are only agreed in a policy of pious fraud and political deception. They appeal to us, not on the broad ground of general constitutional principles, but on the one paltry pretext of Exeter-hall fudge. They neither stand by Protection nor denounce Reform. They hide Toryism out of sight, and put Conservatism in their pockets. They utter our ancient war-cry in a whisper, and Churchmen bowling for help to Dissenters, roar the Jeremiad of Protestant ascen dancy in the voice of Stentor. What would they have ? Can we do without a Government ? Whither are we drifting ? Would they have us once more to be driven on the shoals of Peel, or, on our forlorn raft, to make for the breakers with Bentinck? Is their contest an honest one? Do they really wi s h t o d r i ve Russel l f rom the helm, when, through the nati ona l agony, h e h as b r ought the vessel of the State withi n s i g h t o f port, to m ake way for the fair-weather pilot w h o , t h ough h e can not weather the storm, can "Pursue th e t r i ump h and partake the gale?" If they fail, to wh a t en d is the struggle? If they con quer, to what purpose is the vietory? "Under which King, Bezonian, speak or die?" If the Ministry is driven into opposition, is Protestantism saved? If a Peel or Bentinck Government j.. 1, famed by their defeat, is Popery suppressed?

The witch told the world that " Like a rat, without a tail, I'll do"— but even necromancy has been found hitherto incom petent to enable Conservative TAILS to do without RATS. The Protectionist Alderman of Monday is the Free trader of Tuesday, and Johnson himself has just issued his recantation of his support to the claims of Native Industry; while Masterman— " Who turn'd his coat, and who would turn his skin"— finds his accuunt in first forsaking his pledges, and now deserting Peel. " Sir, he can turn, and turn, and still go on and turn; And he's OBEDIENT as you say, VERY OBEDIENT." When, and where, is all this to end? How long are you to be tricked and fooled? What are you and your principles worth if your very candidates disclaim them? I gibbet them in the chains of their own recantation, an example to politic a l ma l e f actors , to the contempt and scorn of all true men.

MARKET GARDENERS' AND NURSERYMEN'S AsSo- ClATlON.—Yesterday the usual annual meeting of the members of the above association was held at the Rain bow Tavern, King-street, Covent-garden, for the purpose of transacting the general business of the society. Mr. Wilmot, of Isleworth, in the chair. In the report, amongst other matters, it was stated that the agent of his Grace the Duke of Bedford had intimated that the Sun day morning market trading for the sale of fruit in Covent-garden must be discontinued, as a desecration of the Sabbath. The objects of the association, founded in 1828, is for the protection of the general interests of the market gardeners, nurserymen and farmers, and fur the charitable relief of decayed members or their fami lies, but notwithstanding the society's funds have more than reached the maximum espital before they could dispense relief, there has not been a single applicant. The officers for the ensuing year being elected, thanks were voted to the chairman, and the meeting broke up. INCREASE or THE Sseereerox.—Yesterday seve ral of the metropolitan parishes issued notice that in consequence of the prevalence of the smallpox at the present season, parents and guardians should avail themselves, without delay, in complying with the pro visions of the Act of Parliament 4th and sth Viet., re specting the vaccinat i o n and the p enalties attending thereon.

Leeke • the Vengeance, e Stirling ; 54, Captain Lushington ; the Avenger steam-frigate, e ' ance ' Captain S. C. Dacres ; the Vixen steam-sloop,r ij o a ni t e , Com mander Ryder ; and the Stromboli steam-sloo, Com-- inander Fisher, having received sailing orders, all unmoored last evening and hove short, and their' re spective trims having been reported to the Admiral commanding, they were directed to prepare for sailing in the morning, signals being made that the Caledonia, 120, and the Odin steam-frigate would follow the squad- ron with letters, a communication which was most gratifying to both officers and men. At eight o'clock this morning the squadron crossed topgallant and royal yards. At ten signal was made for the steamers to get up steam. At 10 55 A.M., her Majesty, whese presence was not previously securely calculated on, was perceived embarking on board the royal yacht from the pier at Osborne. As soon as the royal standard was :hoisted, signal was made to shorten in cable, and as the yacht approached Stokes Bay, the signal to " weigh " was dis played. The squadron immediately loosed sails, and set topsails, topgallantsails, and royals. At 11 30 A.M., precisely, the whole were under weigh. At 11 35 her Majesty entered Spithead, and the four ships of the line, together with the Iris, Captain Mundy, fired a royal salute, the whole squadron manning their rigging, and the crews cheering as her Majesty passed near. At five minutes before 12, the wind having fallen almost to a calm, the Queen and Prince Albert left the Victoria and Albert xacht o. andmost uuexpectedly went on board the St. Vincent, at the main of Which - ship the - royal standard was immediately hoisted. A visit from her Majesty naturally 'created no small amount of bustle in a ship with nearly 1,000 hands on board ; but the officers of the St. Vincent had their arrangements complete in a moment for the Royal reception. The gallant Admiral Sir Charles Napier received her Ma jesty, and conducted her over the ship, ascending to the quarter-deck and poop to view the movements of the fleet, and the gallant flotilla which accompanied it. A more inspiriting sight could not be witnessed ; the splen dour of the weather, the booming of the guns, the loyal music, and respectful shouts of the multitude, all com bining to render a scene—at all times cheerful and en gaging —on this occasion doubly interesting and en livening. Signal had been made previous to getting under weigh to keep in the same order as they lay in at anchor. As this placed the Howe in the van, she set studdingsails, and dropped her foresail to keep a-head. A breeze springing up from the south-west, which she was the first to catch, carried her well out towards the Knab light vessel before the rest caught it. 'When they did the St. Vincent appeared to make way very slowly, so that the Vengeance and Queen were obliged to shorten sail to their topsails, and at last to lower them on the cap, to keep astern. The Howe had in the meantime run out to the Knab, shortened sail, and hove to. When the St. Vincent got within a mile of the light, and all the squadron except the Howe had closed, the whole hove to, and at 1 46 P.M., having been on board nearly two hours, her Majesty and the Prince Consort returned on board the royal yacht, immediately after which the squadron again saluted and manned their rigging. The royal yacht, accompanied by the Fairy, then parted company, steering a course to go round the Isle of %Ariht, and were lost sight of at ten minutes past two. The squadron when last seen was standing to the south ward with a fine breeze at W.S.W. under topsails, t•ip gallalitsails, and courses, in two columns, St. Vincent and Vengeance forming the weather column, Howe and Queen the lee one ; the steamers to leeward under canvas and steam. This was at half-past three. An accident, which might have resulted very seriously, eccurred to the Avenger steam-frigate when ordered to take the St. Vincent, with her Majesty on board, in tow. The steamer was getting near the flag-ship, the wind being so light it was feared the sailing craft would not save their tide out—when suddenly a breeze sprang up and the St. Vincent worked up to the steamer so quickly as to preclude the possibility of the latter getting out of the way, when the steamer's yards got foul of the three decker's main studdingaail boom, which had to be cut down to extricate them ; this was done by a seaman, and the boom fell to the deck in three pieces in her Majesty's presence. The Iris, 26, Captain G. R. Mundy, was mustered and inspected to-day by the Commander-in-Chief, Admiral Sir C. Ogle, Bart., who afterwards attended upon her Majesty in her cruise in the St. Vincent. Itear-Admiral Sir George Seymour, Commander-in. Chief in the Pacific, has written home for his relief to be sent outas soon as possible. The Caledonia, 120, Captain M. H. Dixon, was un docked last night about nine o'clock, and removed from• the basin at ten this morning. She was then hauled alongside the jetty, and commenced rapidly re-embarking the guns and stores which had been landed at that spot. She will go out of harbour to-morrow. The Stromboli steam-sloop, Commander T. Fisher, and the Vixen, steam-sloop, Commander A. P. Ryder, went out of harbour last evening, and joined the squad ron of Sir Charles Napier at Spithead. Major-General Lord Frederick Fitzclarence made his first official inspection of the Royal Clarence-yard Bat talion last night, and highly complimented its gallant and distinguished Colonel (Captain Superintendent Sir W. E. Parry, R.N.), and Majors Davies and Grant, upon its efficiency and soldierly order. WOOLWICH, JULY 27. The Spiteful steam. loop, Commander Sir William Hoste, Bart., arrived at Wool wich on Sunday evening fro'u the East India and China station, and will be paid off here on Friday next. Com modore Sir Gordon Bremer, K.C.B. and K.C.H., went o❑ board on Monday forenoon to inspect the vessel and her crew, and expressed himself highly pleased with the excellent condition and the efficiency of her crew on their return from a foreign station. The cleanliness and excellent order in which the Spiteful was kept and appeared on her return to England were particularly noticed by Lord Auckland, First Lord of the Admiralty, on his recent visi' to Portsmouth, and to mark his Lord ship's apprubaion he intimated when on board that her first lieutenant would be immediately promoted to the rank of commander. The Dragon steam-frigate remains at Woolwich in the hands of the engineers. The Gorgon steam-vessel was taken out of the basin yesterday, and is to be taken to Sheerness to be fitted for sea. Captain Sir William Symonds, Surveyor of the Navy, has given notice of his intention to retire from the duties of the surveyorship, and will reside at Yar modal, in the Isle of Wight. His resignation has been accepted, but it is not yet k • own whether the surveyor ship of the Royal Navy will in future be confided to three persons as formerly, with an assistant, or whether a surveyor will be appointed to each dockyard These establishments having now acquired an import. ante to require at least an assistant-surveyor to each, to examine the state of ships and war-steamers in pro gress of being built, and ships in o: dinary, and report t an t. ificient board of talented or thoroughly practical men matters which have lately been neglected or overlooked, owing to the great increase and improvements in the Royal Navy. STEAM-BOAT COLLISION ON THE RlVER.—Yester day another collision, attended with the loss of a leg to one of the passengers, took place near the Rosherville Pier, between the Sapphire, Diamond Company's packet and the Sons of the Thames steam-packet, plying be tween London and Sheerness, and touching at that pier. It appears that the two boats on their way down, on approaching the pier about 12 o'clock, were competing each to reach it first. The Sapphire was the outer boat, and she endeavoured to get ahead and to cross the other's bow so as to anticipate her reaching the pier. The paidle-bdxes of both came first in contact, but hs th _ Sapphire being the most powerful of the two, th!zseSo The the rnames was compelled to give way a il l i e t a . p if i n re trial of strength and celerity continued, a made an attempt . h of her competitor, and then barge, wine as they closed the pier, gained about halfnadlengtthtopahtuerand her bow and cut her off from thee pier bold attempt the both were fast approaching.

The reporter, on inquiring into his condition this afternoon, learnt that he was " going on well," and was confirmed in the above particulars by a gentleman who was on board the Sons of the Thames with Mr. Catlin at the time of the collision. The dividend declared yesterday at the meeting of Cameron's Steam Coal and Swansea and Loughor Rail way Company, was at the rate of 123- per cent. per annum, the mineral property at present being the great source ot revenue.

ILuar.ax, JULY 27.—1 t is our painful duty to record one of the most melancholy and distressing occurrences that has for a long period fallen under our notice. The event to which we allude is no less than the almost in stantenous death of Jonathan Ackroyd, Esq., of Halifax, one of the most extensive and wealthy merchants and manufacturers, as well as one of the most estimable and honourable men of this district, which occurred under the following circumstances:— On Monday placards were issued, announcing that Sir Charles Wood, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, would address the electors and inhabitants of Halifax in the large room of the Royal Hotel in that town. Ac cordingly, at the time appointed, half-past seven o'clock in the evening, the large room was completely filled, the company consisting principally of operatives. Sir Charles Wood did lio`, arrive until near eight o'clock, and upon presenting himself be was received with loud cheers by his friends and supporters, and with groans and hisses by the great majority of those assembled in the body of the room. He was accompanied by Jona than Ackroyd, Esq. (at whose house he had been stay ing since Saturday), Wm. Morris, Esq., W. R. Lumb, Esq., Geo. Beaumont, Esq., Edward Ackroyd, Esq., Geo. Dyson, Esq., Dr. Alexander, Dr. Inglis, Jas. Stanfield, Esq., Christopher Dawson, Esq., &c. It was moved by Mr. DYSON, and seconded by Mr. Hoa.Tsoie, that Jonathan Ackroyd, Esq., take the chair. The motion was not put, but Mr. ACHROYD proceeded to address the meeting. He was received with groans and disapprobation by a large portion of the meeting, and with cheers by those on the platform. He spoke at considerable length, and with great earnestness, dwelling principally on the subject of the Government education measures, which he defended amidst repeated interruptions and great disapprobation. I have, said Mr. Ackroyd, been identified with the voluntary system more than half a century, and I trust I have not been an idle spectator of it ; and I see the importance of enlightening the minds of the rising gene ration ; and how those that are to be most benefitted by this measure can rise up in opposition to its supporters is one of the greatest anomalies that I ever knew.— (Great confusion.) Mr. Ackroyd here became greatly excited, and exclaimed, " Is it not to enlighten your childrec's minds, and if so, why do you object to it." He then sank with hi s f ace u p on th e t a bl e , an d in an in stant after fell into the arms of the gentlemen imme diately behind him. It was found that he had been at tacked with a fit, and he was at once conveyed into the open air by order of the medical gectleinen present. Here he was attended by Drs. Alexander and Inglis, and Mr. Hodgson, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Liston, sur geons, who bled him, and adopted the usual remedies, but we regret to add without success, as life aeon became extinct. Sir Charles Wood and other friends were pre sent, and the sudden loss of one wh , na they so deeply respected, seemed to afflict them with a feeling of inex pressible agony. At first the sad announcement of Mr. Ackroyd's death could scarcely be credited in the room, but at length M. STOCKS, Esq., rose, and after calling order, said— My friends and fellow-townsmen, I am sorry to commu nicate to you shut the Honourable Gentleaiau who not many minutes ago occupied the position of Chairman of this meeting is scarcely alive, and there is not, I regret to add, the slighest hopes of his recovery. Gentlemen, deeply must we all deplore the sudden change that has come over our prospects this evening; for, how ever, we may differ in political opinion, none of us differ when the hand of affliction visits any one whom we know, in our feelings of sympathy for his suffering, and of regret for his loss.—(Cries of " None, acne," and applause.) I feel, therefore, whatever may be our political sentiments, however much we may differ from the good man who has just been removed from amongst us—we must all acknowledge that he pre-eminently deserved the thanks and gratitude of his fellow-towns men for his kind and ,honourable conduce—(Cheers.) Owing to this sad event I need scarcely tell you that Sir Charles Wood cannot address you this evening. Mr. Stocks, during the delivery of these few remarks, was greatly excited, and several gentlemen shed tears. The meeting then separated. The distressing event has cast a gloom over the town of Halifax, and sorrow is depicted almost in every countenance. Mr. Ackroyd was upwards of sixty years of age, and by his moral worth, strict integrity, and honuurable and gentlemanly bearing, he had endeared himself not only to the inhabitants of Halifax, but to all who had the pleasure of knowing him; and his sudden removal, under the circumstances above described, will long be deeply deplored. THE ANTI-POPERY CRY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—What folly there is in all this clamour about Popery. Are the citizens of London anxious to keep up the fanatic ravings of Exeter-hall? Do they want to enact the tragedy of 1780—to have thirty-six fires blazing at one time—to have the whole State shaken by pandering to a depraved and bigc•ted taste? I hope the citizens of London will show at this elec tion that they are not behind the Government in their wish for improvement and necessary reforms. Nothing can be more silly than thisenti-Popery cry, without they wish to thaw a comparison between the Catholic priest and the State parson, which must evidently be to the prejudice of the latter: scarcely a provincial town throughout the kingdom in whichi there has not been an account in the public prints of the Catholic clergy dying from fever, &c., caught in the discharge of their duties. literally giving their lives to save the sheep entrusted to their care. And is it against these that this boasted and enlightened country is to wage incessant war Is it still to be penal to teach the little ones at home or abroad? Are we asked to rebuild those magnificent edifices, desecrated by the folly of the dark ages of the last three centuries ? Are we asked to restore the abbey lands, reinstate the plundered convents, to give You uenul-aurdst hbeerleiakfeteurs.': back the gems stolen from the altars . before which _ our overnment taught their forefathers for thirteen centuries "Let w u o s r .s hh atp4e : l fth N o; we for we ourare ndoest.atuTtehecyhi Are we to say No , eternal reward justandr , ig th h e t y c h ange your re li s g ldi i ivr on epn , l): b a u ast s h t w kat' n e o t c t h i h i e j a; m e l a i t; b : Government— everything by turns, :, g.
