It appears that the Guardians had caused the lover squares of glass to be ground. for the pur pose of preventing the inmates looking into t h h: yards and neglecting their employment, which gave such offence that a party of the most violent commenced demolishing the squares. To prevent a recurrence carpenters are now en. gaged affixing sashes secured by iron bars, with oil paper in the place of glass. Nona of the ringleaders are yet known, as none of the paupers will disclose who committed the violence.

LONDON: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1840. ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER MAJESTY. The readers of The Sun, and the public at large, will be pleased to learn that her Most Gracious MAJESTY was this day delivered of a PRINCESS. The accouchment took place at ten minutes to two o'clock. Her MAJESTY and the Royal Infant arc going on extremely well. The Park and Tower guns announced the joyfu news to the metropolis. Dr. STANLEY, the Bishop of Norwich, is un doubtedly one of the most popular men ;on the Bench. He stood up for education in Ire land, when scarcely any other clergyman took that side. He has openly, in Parliament and out of Parliament, opposed the opinions of his brethren, in favour of reforming the Liturgy, and not enforcing subscription to the Articles. " No Prelate," said the venerable Archdeacon BA THURST, at a meeting held at Norwich on Wed nesday, to form an Anti-Slavery Society, " opened his purse-strings more liberally, or more readily." In spite, however, of all these claims to public consideration, and in spite of the presence of a numerous body of noblemen, gentlemen, and ladies at the meeting in question, the Chartists assembled with their wives and families, and their inter ruptions were so great, that the Right Rev. Pre late could scarcely obtain a hearing, and could scarcely carry a resolution to recommend exertions for the abolition of slavery. The very fact, that ', men in fustian jackets stood up in the County- Court and bearded the Bishop, and bearded the gentry, and moved counter resolutions, which were only not carried, is exceedingly instructive. It shows a new spirit of independence in the people, which may possibly be coerced again into silent submission, but which it is more probable will ga ther strength every day, till it brighten the eye and nerve the heart and the artn of all the fustian jackets in the wide empire. We must make our rsaders acquainted with some of the circumstances of this meeting. It was called by a requisition to the High Sheriff, and was at. tcnded by many ladies, noblemen, and gentlemen. As soon as it was announced, a weaver of the name of Dover, called upon the Chartists to attend with their wives an d f am ili es; they did attea, an d in terrupted even the Bishop, who was the first speaker. They cried out, " Why don't you look to the New Poor-law ?" " Where is the slavery of your ( work house ?" " Hisses and groans." " Look at home before you 0 00 abroad." " Groans." After th e 1 Bishop resumed his seat, some confusion took place, which lasted for a considerable time. The seconder of the resolution, moved by the Bishop, could not he heard, and when he sat down, Mr. Dover spoke. lie professed himself opposed to. slavery, and he threw doubts on the sincerity of the Bishops, "who were avaricious of filthy lucre." He referred to the great increase of the clergy, the great annual sealth of the country, and the small share of it which falls to the industrious classes. He said the bugaboo which had terrified them would soon be done away with, and thereupon the Chartist party gave great cheers. After delivering a speech, which the clergy must regard as highly inflamma tory, he concluded by moving a resolution denoun cing slavery at home, and pledging the meeting to use all their exertions to abolish slavery everywhere. For the resolution there was nearly as many hands held up as for the Bishop's, but the latter was de clared to be carried. We put it to the calm good sense of our states men, if a body of clergy who can command so little respect from the men whom they are expected to teach and to influence, can with any propriety be relied on to control, curb, or instruct the multitude. Teachers must be l o v e d an d respecte d. Th ere may b e some Predilection for the clergy in the lawmakers, some Close pecuniary connection between the priesthood and the aristocracy, which may make the latter desire to uphold the form e: ; th e y ma y h ave a rat i ona l to I desir e p their families; b ut let th em say so, and g i ve up the idle nonsense of employing a b o dy o f pr i ests, who are now despised ponrpose of Inculcating obedi uand contemned . by the fus tian jackets, for the aees, s read' g dience and morality the People.

If it be inferred from what the priests did in the early ages, and what the missionaries are doing amongst the savages, that our richly endowed Bishops and Rectors will have a similar influence over the " heathen" of our large towns, let the public study the language and conduct of the Norwich weavers, and be undeceived. for the just view he took of the Eastern question. I He blames the THIERS Cabinet, without excusing or still less praising their predecessors, who by their counsels had plac e d F rance i n a most awkward position. There were thr ee g reat errors he said with regard to French po licy in the East—too great fear of Russia, a blameable negligence in supporting the status qno as something permanent, and the unjust and exor bitant sacrifice of the Ottoman interests to thote of Egypt. The results were two of the most serious and unfortunate events of the last ten years, vic., the presence of the Russians at Constantinople for the first time in 1833, and the ru pt ure o f the Anglo-French alliance in 1840. This, he said emphatically, is what the Paella of EGYPT has lost the world and us. There is a great deal of truth in the speech, but unfortunately it is like those made by some of our own discon tented orators, who, in the exuberance of their fancy, attack friends I and foes alike. Baron CHARLES DUPIN spoke first, and took a similar view of the false position in which Fiance had placed her by supporting Mehemet Ali. To these speakers, and particulaily that of M. GuizoT we refer our readers. We have given two "versions of it, as there is some discrepancy in the reports. Oi this, however, both reports agree, that France, wealthy, prosperous and free, should strive to ',re serve the blessings of peace." This is not, however, the only example we have to produce that the people are beginning to decide accurately on the merits of the priesthood. On the 18th instant Mr. SYDNEY SMITH delivered his second lecture on the Corn-laws to about 500 per sons at Devizes. He said (we copy from the Wiltshire Independent)— I have often, in the course of my public addresses, pointed out to my hearers that we have had four years of high prices and three of scarcity. I have observed that the Church of England Liturgy (" part and parcel of the law of the land") directs its ministers to use cer tain prayers in the time of famine ; and have been sur prised to find that the Established Clergy have, with rare exceptions, carefully avoided following the instruc tions in this respect of their own rubric.—(Cries of Shame.) The duty they have neglected, I will perform, and I ask you to listen with attention to this :—" 0 God, Heavenly Father, whose gift it is that the rain doth fall, the earth is fruitful, beasts increase, and fishes do mul tiply ! Behold, we beseech thee the afflictions of thy people; and grant that the scarcity and DEARTH, which we do now most suffer for our iniquity, may through thy goodness be mercifully turned into CHEAPNESS and Plenty, for the love of Jesus Christ our Lord."—(Hear, hear, hear.) And fur ther, in the " Thanksgiving for Plenty," hear this : " 0 most Gracious Father, who of thy gracious good ness bast heard the devout prayers of thy Church, and turned our dearth and scarcity into cheapness and plenty ; we give thee thanks for this thy special bounty?' —(Hear, hear.) These are, indeed, the prayers of a truly national religion ; but what a mockery of God must that man's orisons be, who exerts all his social influence to make the food of his fellow-worshippers dear, and yet could insult the majesty of Heaven, by thanking the Almighty f or " c h ea p ness an d pl en ty !" (Hear.) And what are we to think of the piety of those clergymen who all the week will run over their parishes to get their flock toTetition Parliament t, keep up by a tax the price of the bread of the poor, and yet on the Sabbath will stand up in the " Poor man's Charcb," and petition God to avert that calamity which they them calves ::re strenuously exerting the , aaselves to perpetuate. —(Hear.) Nor is this all ;in every palish the clergy have :loci e ties to promote the better obaervence of the Sabbath ; and the Bishop of London, in every sec tion of his diocese, is a zealous promoter of this object. One evening, as I passed through Spitalfields, in my way from a lecture, I heard strange noises in the gar rets above me ; on inquiring their cause, 1 found that still, at the dead hour of the night, the weavers (of his Lordship's own flock) were at work at their looms ; that they were compelled to labour 18, 19, and '2O hours a day, and that the shuttles might be heard quite as re gularly when the bells tolled for Sabbath church.— (Hear, and shame.) The following specimen of a Manchester hand-loom weaver, at once explains the cause, and shows that it is not confined to Spitalfields. It is taken from the Manchester Timer :—" John White said it was long since the hand-loom weavers knew the evil effects o the Corn-laws upon their la bour. He had severely felt the effects of those laws. For thirteen years he had toiled for a large, a young, and a helpless family, that never could assist him. He had worked early and late, until on three separate occa s i ons , h e h a d f a i n t e d and fallen out of his loom.—(Hear, hear.) It was a well known fact that people had worked on the Sabbath—( Hear) —he had often done it himself ; and lie would work again on any day on which the Lord permitted him health and strength to do it, before he would leave his wife and children starving."—( Hear, hear.) %Web of you, fathers and husbands, having an ox fallen into a pit, will not lift it ou t on th e Sabba th day ? and which of you having a wife and children starving, will not work on the Sabbath-day for food to dry up their tears ? ( Hear.) But what are we to think of the matchless hypocrisy of the men who, in the consecrated cathedral, will teach the hearers to remember the Sabbath-day to keep it holy ; and in their places in Parliament, will tax their bread and force them to offend the command ment, in earning food for their children ?—(tries of " That they arc hypocrites.") The Corn-law is the great Sabbath-breaker—(Hear) —and yet Chri6tian Bishops defend it.—(Shame, shame.) In Devizes, then, as well as at Norwich, in the west, as well as in the east, the multitude cry out shame on the Bishops, shame on the Clergy, and shame on the hypocrites. They regard them as enemies. The clergy are associated in their minds with the accursed tax on their bread. Will the people listen to their enemies ? Will they take ad vice from their oppressors ? Will they respect and honour the counsel of *men they despise ? They will not, and we seriously call on all those well-meaning people who look for the regeneration of the nation from the influence of the clergy, to cast about for some more efficacious means, for they might as well expect it from the costermon gers as from the clergy. Gentlemen over their wine cups at Tory meet ings, may fancy, as they toast the Church, that their wishes for its strength will realise themselves'. They may be flattered, too, by hearing some well fed rubicund clergyman return thanks, and assure them that there never was a time when the Church and the landed aristocracy were so highly respected. They may cajole one another ; but they will not cajole the fustian jackets. We hope they will not attempt, being themselves well convinced that the clergy ought to be honoured and obeyed, to coerce the fustian jackets into obedience. That will only aggravate the sore. It is certainly with the fustians jacket that the influence of the clergy is required by the State and the country gentlemen. The latter do not need it, for them selves. If they expect, however, to make the people love the priesthood by toasting them and praising them, they will be deceived. To restore the clergy to their former influence and usefulness, they must lift up their voices according to the rubric against the Corn-law ; they must renounce a large portion of their wealth ; they must become part of the people and make common cause with them. Then they may once more be regarded as their leaders, and guide them to virtue and happi ness. But as long as the priesthood preserve their present character, and strenuously cherish alliance with the bread-taxers, they will everywhere, as at Devizes and Norwich, be regarded with contempt and scorn. The Monileur contains a royal ordinance, pro moting a number of Colonels to the rank of Ma jor-General. The other intelligence from France and also Spain is destitute of interest.

It is especially worthy of the atten tion of the public, and particularly of the Pro- Church-rate party. There breathes throughout these proceedings an air of sincere conviction which cannot be mistaken, and which entitles Mr. BAINES, Mr. THOROGOOD, and their sup. porters to the character of martyrs for conscience' sake asjustly as that character was ever conferred,;on any men. The humanity of the age does not allow their stupid and selfish antagonists to burn them ; but if it did, we feel assured they would as steadily profess their d oc t r i nes a - t h e sta k e as they now braveimpriso nment in resisting Church-rates. How long, then, is this legal plunder to be conti nued, which excites against it such hallowed and honoured feelings ? How long is human nature to be outraged because a law is suffered to remain in existence, which might havr been suitable to foirt spirit n e but is as unco ngen i a l to t h e ti !I s e age as th e o ld l aw f or b urn i ng s. ftin is it n o t enoug h f or t h e l aw established w t r o priesthood, that they must direct on their devoted heads the hatred of all the suffering bread eaters in the kingdom, but they must also invoke against themselves the religious zeal, the sincere piety, the conscientious convictions of all the honest Dis senters in the kingdom. Whom GOD means to destroy he first drives mad ; and if the priesthood do not at once interfsre to stop the revolting course of the law carr i e d i nto execution for them and . by their Courts, must we not conclude that GOD des tines them to dest ruct i on , an d t h at hi s d ecree i s already visible in thei r ma d ness . D o t h ey and their crazy abettors imagine that the deep wells of human feeling are to be dried up or diverted at their bidding ? If they do not, let them make their laws and carry them into exertion consistently with these feelings ; if they -do, let them proceed in their present career, one of the least calamities of which will be their certain and swift destruction. At the meeting of the Commission of Assembly at Edinburgh, on Wednesday, the case of the Strath. bogie ministers was again discussed at great length. The seven Ministers suspended by the Assembly, and supported by the Court of Session, objected by Counsel to the relevancy of the indictment against them for obeying the Civil Court, and the Non-In trusionist party, by a large majority, repelled the objections, and sustained the indictment. They prudently, however, delayed hca-ina the •evi dence on b o th s id es till th e mo nth of Mar c h. This delay shows a consciousness of impotency on the part of these law breakers, and a de termination to throw the whole responsibility of a collision with the Supreme Civil Courts on the General Assembly. They sustained the in dictment also against Mr. EDWARDS, the pre sentee to Maruoch, who, nevertheless, proceeds with his action for damages against the five minis ters of Strathbogie for depriving him of the living. The contest is a very novel one. Five ministers, backed by the General Assembly, are opposed to seven ministers, backed by the Court of Session and the House of Lords. It will be strange cer tainly if, in these days, the Church can dw pity set the laws at defiance, as in the nods of Papal dominion. We have received the Paris papers of Wednes day, which, as well as the letters of the Corre spondents, contain news of considerable importance. In one of the letters the following report is given on good authority :—" Yesterday evening there passed through Paris, for London, a courier, coming from Constantinople, via Vicrina, with ME HEMET ALI': acceptance of the terms offered him by the Allies. The respectability of the quarter whence I had this information compels me to regard it as certain. It no doubt Peached other parties, for )ou will find that the funds - rose consi in spite of cert a i n s i n i st ..tr reports re derably to-day, spectin g the prospects of the present Cabinet, and of the alleged indisposition of the m ajority of the deputies to vote any but a strongly w circled address in alluding to the treaty of the 15th J. aly. " If MEHEMET ALI have, as a bove stated, submitted to the dictum of the allies„ the arrival in Kondon of Prince ESTERHAZY will be immedi ately followed by negotiations pn a • more extended subject— the general peace of Europ , e—which the quarrel of the Porte and the Vieetol was so near compromising." These papers gave at considerab, le length the debate in the Chamber of Peers on the address. It was very animated, but at the s ame time peace able. The speech of the Count M. aN T/ALENIBERT was the most remarkable ) both for- locluence and BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE RE FORM AND REGISTRATION ASSOCIATION. Last evening a very numerous meeting, including many of the most influential electors of the Borough of M irk le bone, members of the Borough of Marylebone Reform and Registration Association, took place at their spacious rooms, Warren-street, Fuzroy.square, for the purpose 01 receiving the Report of the Committee as to the political position of the Borough since the result of the Revision of the Lists of Voters in the late Registration Court. Major REVELL occupied the Chair, and amongst the gentlemen present were Sir James Duke, M. P , Captain J. W. Deans Duridas, R.N., Professor Key, J. B. Bacon, Eiq., Joseph Ivimey, Esq , R. Nelins, Esq., &c. &e. The CHAIRMAN having explained the objec7 of the meet ing, read a letter from John Bagshavv, Esq , the Presi dent of the Association, expressive of regret at his inabi lity, through illness, to ba present, and then called upon the Secretary to read the Report of the Committee. Mr. ALLEN, the Secretary, then read the Report, as follows : The Managing Committee, in presenting their third Report to the Members of the Borough of Marylebone Re- ' term and Registration Association, congratulate them upon the important services rendcred by it to the Reform inte rest. Without the lab.Jur of such an Association, it is evident to your Committee that the cause of Toryism in this borough would be triumphant. With it they entertain the most sanguine hopes that, whenever another election shall occur, that cause will be most signally defeated. The following statements—and of their accuracy the Committee challenge any possible investigation—will show those of the Tory Association arc not only incorrect, as far as figures are concerned, but that the real victory is with the Reformers of this Borough.. The accounts furnished by the Tory Association to the Tory Newspapers as the result of the last revision of voters for this borough, is stated to give a majority in favour of that party of 61. If the vaunted triumphs of the Tory Associations in other boroughs are not more correct than their account of this, a dissolution of Parliament, so far from being a mat ter of dread to Reformers, ought to be an event most de. voutly to be desired. In the three r ariihes of Paddington, Marylebone, and Pancras, the whole claims amontited to 265. Of these this Association made 106, sustained 58, and failed 38. The Tory Association made 71, sustained 38, and failed in 33; other persona made 88, of which 24 were sustained, and 64 failed. In the three parishes the thole objections made amoun:- cd to 1,002, of these 206 were made by both Associations to the same persons, and 29 were made by overseers, which deducted from the total number, leaves 767 ; of these thin Association made 336, sustained 248, and failed in 90. Tile Tory Association made 429, sustained 2 35. aril failed in 134. Adding, therefore, together the claims and ob jctions eustaiL;:d Associatien, they wou!d amount is 316, and thoee cl the Torics to 333, leaving a majority , in their favour of 17 only, instead of 61, the number of ishich they have boasted. Ot the 24 claims made by other parties and atoned, th e Committee are happy to state that more than sufficient are of, thy' Reform side to convert the Tory majority into a minority. The actual result of the ufforts of this Association and that of the Tories, may be thus shortly stated : Reformers' claims allowed 6B objections sustained 248-316 Tory claims objections failed 134-167 Tory claims allowed 3`3 vv objections :)ustained 295-333 Reformers' claims dis6liorved -- objections 90-128 461 D,fference in favour of R:furmers 22 It will thus be seen that, without the efforts of this As sociation, the probabilities are that the Tories would have struck off 134 more voters, and caused the insertion on the list of 33 more Tories. Adding these to the 6ti claims sustained by this Association, and the 246 objec tion=, allowed there would have been a loss of 483 voters on the Liberal side, and probably more than sufficient to de cide the fate of an election had one taken place on the Register as it would have then stow!. The very trifling majority, as shown by the Tories, so fir as mere figures are concerned, is altogether reversed ashen the calculation is confined to those, whose votes have already been recorded upon previous elections, and are now expunged. The analysis of the whole is as follows: Registered in 1838, and not then voting, t 34; on the two last registers, 88; on the last register only 67. New voters not before registered, 335 —524. Voted !or Tories 127; for Reformers, 83.-204. Total expunged, 778 . ; and it will be observed of the ❑umber who have voted there are 38 mo-e Tories than Reformers. The different nature of the objections sustained, the parties by whomiradde, and their numbers, are classed ad follows : - - - By Re- - By By both formers. Tories. Parties. Total. Assessed Taxes unpaid 67 67 Dead H 10 21 42 Houses let furnished Joint occupation Non-residents Not sufficient occupation by length of time l9 36 .t.'6 81 Not properly rated — 3 3 Peers 9 9 Permissive occupation •2 7 9 Personal disqualification as aliens and otherwise 21 9 29 59 Removed 63 ' 75 65 208 Total... 248 Overseers objections . Total expunged 778 . „ It is curious to observe that nine Peers were erased on account of the objections made by the Tory Association. The above analysis shows that a very considerable portion of the Tory objections arose (as they always have dono from the non-payment of assessed taxes. None were made by Reformers on that ground. One certain proposition (and which is arrived at from the actual experience of that Association) may be safely affirmed, that, as a body, the assessed tax collectors are against the Reformers, and in favour of Tories ; and that to fervvard the interests of the latter they are most active partisans, supplying them vsicl every possible information in their power. If it be asked What proofs can be adduced ? the answer given, in tin first place, is the fact itself, that the names of 67 person , ate suffered by these collectors to remain on tee list, a , made out by the overseers; whereas their duty was to have expunged them. Nut having done so, the information is then given to the Tory As sociation, and thus their account of objections sustained is to a great extent increased, and their boastings propor tionably so. No such information is given to this Asso. elation If the mischief rested here. it might be said that there was no very great cause of complaint, as those names are properly erased ; but the misfortune is, that if per chance after the objection is made it is discovered that the voter is on the Tery side, then it is instantly withdrawn, and the Barrister tias no power to expunge a name which is not objected to, or where the objection is withdrawn. Various instances of this kind occurred during the revi sion, which leads this Committee to the full belief that these functionaries (who ought to confine themselves strictly to the discharge of their duties, and not to inter fere on the one side or the other) purposely allow persons of their own political views to be placed on the list not withstanding their assessed taxes are not paid. When to this is added then unremitting activity in getting their Tory friends to pay their assessed taxes on or before the 20th of July, and the same activity alter that day, as regards the Reformers, the wonder is that having such odds to contend with, the Reformers in this borough number the amount they do. W hen all parties pro fess an axiety to amend the present system of registration, this glaring evil ought not to be overlooked. Indepen dently of objections furnished from information thus pecu liarly derived, they arc never found wanting in giving a ny other testimony they think will be serviceable to their friends. Among other instances, two may be advancA in which a collector supported an objection to two voters, ou the ground that he knew they were females. The voters themselves subsequently attended and proved the contrary, one of them having been a rate-payer for a pe riod of three, and the other upwards of twenty-five years. Whether any benefit is derived by these gentlemen, other than the gratification of thus actively serving their friends, it is impossible to say. Nevertheless, it has been awes tainest, that after their registration labours are over a good dinner (not at their own expense) is provided for them at the Yorkshire Stingo. Your Committee conclude this Report with the follow. ing statement of the present Register:-- Persons who have voted at one or both of the last elections 6,225 Persons registered in 1838 and not then voting 966 Persons registered in 1839 and omitted from last register Persons registered in 1839 and 1840 again registered 1,058 Persons on the last register only 1,258 New votes not before registered ----. 5,334 Total number of votes on the new register 11,359 being 66 lets than that of last year. Of the above 6,225 persons who have voted, 114 were split between Reformer and Tory in 1837, and nut given to either party in 1838-3,158 voted for Reformers, and 0,953 for the Tories, which gives a clear majority of known voters to the Reformers of 205, Of the 5.334 who have not yet recnrded their votes no certain calculation can be made; but it is gratifying to your Committee to state that the majority will be found in those districts roost favourable to Reformers, and the minority in those in which the Tories bale hitherto bees the most successful. The Report concluded by expressing regret at the apathy of Reformers, and by urging them to enrol themselves as members of the Association. Mr. CHAMBERS moved the adoption and printing of the report, when . - Captain DUNDAS observed, that he feared if that was done it would be giving their opponents a little Information which would perhaps operate against themselves. Mr. NELMES seconded the motion. He conceived that there was nothing in the report that ought not to forth to the electors. It would not only disabuse the minds of Re formers as to the real political position of the borough ; but it would a l so refute the false statemtnts put forth by the Tory Association in the Tory journals, and expose the gross conduct of the Queen's tax co llectors in becoming partisans of the Tories to aid them in the Registration Courts. It was also an important fact for the public to know that but for the eff,rts of that Association there would have been a loss to the Reform interest of nearly 500 voters, which would have been enough to have turned any Hear.) Captain DUNDAS observed that the condu c tto the o ofthe c two collectors ought to be at once repor t ed office of stamps and taxes.—( Hear, hear.) Sir JAMES DUKE said he was himself in the unfortunate position of having lost his vote through the misconduct of _ . The Report, on being put, was carried unanimously. A letter was read, announcing the death of N. A. Vigors, Esq., M. P , one of the Vice-Presidents of the AH sociation, when, on the motion of Sir James Duke, se conded by Captain Dundas, and after a lengthened eulogy on the consistent character of that gentleman, both in his private and public capacity, a resolution of condolence to his bereaved family was unanimously adopted. A vote of thanks was then passed to the Secretary, Mr. Allen, for the talent and assiduity he has invariably dis played in advancing the objects of the Association. A similar compliment having subsequently been paid to Mr. Ivimey, for his defeace of the Reform interest in the Re vising Barristers' Court, and also to ths Chairman, the meeting separated at a late hour.

CONSTAnTINOPLE, OCT. 21.—We begin to feel the bad effects of the season. On the night of the 14th a.A.I 13th we experienced a terrible gale from the south-cast, which took place in the Black Sea, which has caused much damage. Several ships have been damaged ; some of them have been obliged to throw a part of their cargoes into the sea. The only Continental news this morning of consequence is a report that Mehemet Ali has submitted to the Allied Powers. This intelligence is stated to have been received at Paris by a courier passing through that capital from Vienna, going to England. Up to the present hour we have no tidings of the Pre sident, from New York. Fears arc entertained that she has received some accident, and been obliged to put back. There was not much business done in the foreign ex changes yesterday afternoon, and the market closed flat ; Hamburgh was rather lower. THZ FUNDS.

The Delhi Gazette of the 3d September mentio n s th at a Ltd a report was prevalent that Colonel Stoddart had been poisoned. This, however, i 3 contradicted by a report from Colonel Stoddart, received at the neighbouring sta. tation, in which it is stated thht the Mussulmans of Bok hara caused the unfortunate Colonel to be circumcised before all the people ; on the 12th had his grave dug, threw him into it, and ill treated him, but they spared his life. Will Government ever interfere in the unfortunate man's behalf? The Liverpool Standard of the 28th inst. has the fol. lowing account of the ship President :—. 6 This fine ship, which has been anxiously expected for some days past, we are glad to say arrived last night, all well. She came up the river, as we learn, between five and six o'clock yester day evening, and proceeded to the Hoyne. This cannot be correct ; if she had arrived on this day evening at Li verpool, no doubt we should ere this have had a conforrna. tion." We hear that the agents of the President have had a letter from Liverpool dated yesterday, twelve at night, when she wea not telegraphed. The British Market, which had a heavy appearance in the course of the morning, when Consols were at 89k for the Account, have since improved to 89 owing, it is 'aid, to the arri%al of the French mail of Thursday, which brings the prices higher, as wall as some favourable intel ligence, which has not yet transpired.

Ile was a native of Edinburgh, and lost his sight by smallpox when a child. The powers of this singular man's memory are n u t unknown to many of the c ommunit y of Edinburgh by whom they have' been often witnessed at the public examination of the younger pupils; and those visiting the Institution, both from Edinburgh and from a distance, have been constantly in the habit of testing this f a culty in the e xtraordinary mea sure in which be possessed it.

Ile would tell them that it was more than probable, as such voters resided in those districts of the borough , ihich had inva riably given the greatest majorities against the Tories.— ( Cheers.) The Tory statements were totally untrue, and they even resorted to the trick of objecting to the names of Conservative Peers, knowing at the time they never voted, in order to make a show and swell their boasted majority.

An attempt was also made to obtain possession of a bull belonging to Mr. Roberts, farmer ; but fortunately, before they had effected their purpose, 'and while in the act of breaking open the lock under which tho animal was moue expense, secures, two of the leaders were taken into custody, and on the following day (Saturday) were taken before the Magistrates, and each fined and adjudged to pay 14s. Bd, damages and costs, and in default of payment to be committed for two months to hard labour. For the : G, h r a ir r ) d isr shi last three years the town has been saddled with an enor mili tary force. We trust, therefore, that there never will be being compelled to have the civil and any necessity for calling in this !orce again, to do away with that which has been adjudged by the law to be illegal. The expense attending this foreign force in 1838 amounted t 01501., and last year tbat amount was nearly doubled, to the Is : tke burden. indivi A du N a D ls unable to sustain SCIENTIFIC SOCIET Y A , P LITERARY ofmany •—rin elegant tea service of plate was presented to Mr. Josiah Wilkinson, the Honorary Secretary, at the first conversazione of the season.
