SLOAN and CO., Members of the Royal College of Surgeons, 4, ARGYLL-PLACE, REGENT-STREET, and 28, IRONMONGER-LANE, CHEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they hare hitherto ob served, The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility, Gonorrhcea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva lent, are reated upon those unerring principles which have in sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public pa tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be their future exertion to maintain.

" A very nice littfe volume, containing a charming collection of poetry, adapted for children from six to twelve."—Spectator. " A work admirably calculated to replenish the mind with bright and available materials, such as shall impart to it an abundance of intellectual wealth, and give it breadth and ele vation."—Youth's Magazine. " Of the many works having this end in view, (i. e. the in ducing of a healthy moral tone in the minds of children), we have met with none possessing greater claims to attention than the Poetical Selection by Mr. Payne; he has drawn from sources the most pure and invigorating, and the result is, a happy combination, which must excite thirst in the youthful mind, ardent but wholesome. It deserves a place on the shelves of every school-room in the kingdom."—Parthenon. Relfe and Fletcher, 17, Cornhill. LON DON, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1840. - • CHILDRENS' FRIEND SOCIETY. At the ANNUAL MEETING, held on the 30th of May, the COMMITTEE of MANAGEMENT were recom mended to take the necessary steps for establishing an INDUSTRIAL ASYLUM at the CAPE of GOOD HOPE, on a similar plan to the Brenton Asylum at Hackney Wick. A subscription has accordingly been opened for the purpose of raising the sum of 2,0001, which will be required to take and stock a suitable farm, and provide for the probable expenses of the first two years; after which period it is ex pected that it will become a self-supporting establishment. In this Colonial Asylum the children might be kept under moral and religious training for a longer period than is now possible, and might also obtain, on the spot, practical know ledge sufficient to secure their future prospects in the colony.

TO THE FRIENDS OF LIBERTY IN ULSTER. Fellow- Countrymen,—ln consequence of the trust re posed in us by the originators of the Ulster Constitutional Association, in appointing us temporary Secretaries of that body, we deem it right, at this important period, to address to you a few observations. By a resolution, passed at a meeting held in London, on the 23d of last month, the duty was committed to us f calling a general meeting of the Association, when cir cumstances should render it expedient. The following is that resolution : " That so soon as a sufficient number of members shall have joined the Association, the Secretaries be requested to call a general meeting, for the election of officers, and for the further arrangement of details." We immediately made arrangements, which have since been in progress, for collecting the names of such Noble men and Gentlemen as desired to join the Association. A large Number of names have now been returned to us; and our determination was, and still is, to call a general meeting of the Association, at the earliest convenient day after the termination of the north-east and north-west circuits ; but we feel that, in the mean time, it is expedient that we should notice a communication which has appeared in the public papers, addressed to us by the Secretary of " The Loyal National Repeal Association of Ireland." In that document we are charged, by implication, with having unnecessarily delayed the calling of a general meeting; and we are more directly charged with this neglect in the reported speech of Mr. O'Connell. We f b eve °illy to say to you, on this point,: that as Secretaries, pro tem., of the Ulster Association, we hold ourselves re sposible to that body, when assembled, for the exercise of the powers entrusted to us, but to no other authority. It has been our desire, and we feel that we are war ranted in stating that it was the object of the noblemen and gentlemen who projected the Ulster Association, to obtain the support of all the true friends of liberty, both in Britain and Ireland. With this view, the Earls of Charlemont and Gosford, as stated in the speech of Mr. O'Connell already referred to. did communicate to him the fact of the formation of the Ulster Association, and the principles on which it was esta blished. It is right, however that it should be clearly un derstood, that this communication was intended by them simply as a manifestation of courtesy, and with a view of obviating injurious reports as to the objects of the Associa tion, but not for the purpose of asking Mr. O'Connell's guidance, whose approval or disapproval could not then have made the smallest difference, with reference to the es tablishment of the Association, or to the principles of its construction, both of which had been settled by the resolu tions of the meeting held some days before. It would have been our desire to avoid collision with any Association founded by Mr. O'Connell, or with any other public body professing to support the principles of political freedom, had we been permitted to act without interference in the discharge of our temporary duties; but this has not been conceded to us: censure has been cast upon us, and, through us, upon this infant Association, before it has been possible to bring its machinery into active operation; and, an attempt being now made to assume an authority which might, in our opinion, be productive of consequences fatal to its success, we feel ourselves imperatively called on to declare, on our part, and on the part of the originators of the Association, that, while we desire to hold good fellow ship with all honest friends of freedom, we disclaim,—we repudiate,—we determinately and absolutely repel,—any claim by any individual, not being a member of the body, or by any other Association, to exercise authority in direct ing or controlling the proceedings of the Ulster Constitu tional Association. That Association, we trust, will act independently, and must stand or fall according to the ver dict of the country on its proceedings. We deem it the more essentially necessary to proclaim these sentiments, because it is, in our opinion, vitally im portant that the Ulster Association should be free from the charge of any connexion, direct or indirect, with the Re peal agitation now proceeding under the guidance of Mr. O'Connell. _ _ . Without entering into a discussion of the bearings of this proposition on the interest of both countries, we feel ourselves called on to declare our conviction that the agita tion of this question will prove deeply injurious to the great interest; we are desirous to promote. It tends to divide the friends of liberty in Ireland, and to separate us from our British countrymen—abates the energy of our resistance to bad measures, and produces incapacity to de mand, with effect, those which might serve us. It weakens the moral power of Irish opinion and Irish action, and turns aside the people from any hopeful effort to promote the public interests—agitating their minds on an object, of the delusive nature of which ten years' experience might afford sufficient proof, even to those who most ardently de sired its attainment. Under these views, the second resolution of the Ulster Association was adopted. It was not designed unfairly to pledge those who might approve of the principle of Re peal, as to the line of conduct which they might think fit to pursue, in any other position or under any other cir cumstances, but to preclude the possibility of that question being raised in the Ulster Association ; and we are firmly convinced that it is necessary this determination should be adhered te, and that no society of united Reformers could be sustained in Ulster, which was liable to be ap plied to the purposes of the Repeal agitation. Fellow-Countrymen of Ulster,.— We now respect fully claim your attention to the propositions of our Association. The Bill for your disfranchisement has been postponed. ry ou. base a temporary r es pit e . Use y our tinie, then, to an effective purpose. The sword is 3%11461c/6d over your heads, and how shall you escape the d an g er ? Y ou can o nly save yourselves by the moral power of union, not only among yourselves, but also with the friends of rational liberty in Britain. This is a fundamental object of the Ulster Association, which, if honestly and zealously acted on, must, in our opinion, prove successful. We desire to see the rights and liberties of Ireland founded on principles common to the United Kingdom. We see no other harbour of safety; and, acting on this view, we are desirous to take every means to enlist the people of England and Scotland in our cause, and to go hand in hand with the supporters of liberty in Britain, in every constitutional effort for our common benefit. Friends of liberty in Ulster, such is the object of the Ulster Association—such is the ground on which we claim yo. or support. WM. SIIARMAN CRAWFORD, D. R. ROSS, Secretaries, pro tem., to the Ulster Constitutional Belfast, July 21, 1840. Association. P. S.—The following are the objects of the Ulster Con stitutional Association, as agreed upon at the meeting held at the residence of the Earl of Charlemont, on Tuesday, the 23d of June : "1. To combine, on a principle of united action, and for purposes of public utility, all persons connected, by re sidence or property, with the Province of Ulster, who are friends and supporters of constitutional freedom ; and who accordingly recognize the just and reasonable claims of all their fellow -countrymen, without distinction of religious profession, to equal rights, to equal laws, and the blessings of impartial government. "2. To obtain for Ireland an equalization of all rights, franchises, and benefits with Britain; and the closest pos sible assimilation of the laws and institutions of both coun tries; to the end that, by complete incorporation, the sys tem of imperial legislation may be rendered permanently beneficial to the interests of the United Kingdom, and thus strengthen and perpetuate a connexion advantageous, if maintained on such principles, to the people of both coun tries, and essential to the preservation of this great empire, in its commanding position among the nations of the earth. " 3. To cons 'Hate and render efficient the moral power of the friends of constitutional liberty in both islands, by supporting their endeavours to bring the principle of the Reform Acts into operation, aed forwarding all measures which may be deemed conducive to the interests of the United Kingdom. " 4. To obtain such alteration in the principle of regis tration as will confer a more extensive franchise, ►vith a greater facility of establishing it ; and, also, such im provements in the elective laws as will give protection to the voter, in the flee and urcontrolled exercise of that franchise. " 5. To adopt such measures as may be deemed advis able, for securing the co-operation of Irishmen, of every sect and party, in promoting the practical improvement of their country—the employment of her people—and the development of her resources, by procuring statistical in formation, by instructing the people in the nature of their social and political relations, and by such other means as enlarged experience may suggest." BANKERS—Messrs. Maste - rman, Peters, Mildred, and Co. This Society is formed at the desire of the principle Planters and Merchants interested in the West Indies, as will be seen by the annexed recommendation, for the purpose of promoting and encouraging immigration into these Colonies, where European and other Artisans and Labonrers may be advantageously em ployed. In the mountainous parts of the West Indies the climate is cool and salubrious,.the thermometer throughout the year rang ing from 60 to 73 degrees, and there, as well as in many parts of the lowlands, every description of work can be performed by them. Already Freeman's Hall Sugar Estate, in the parish of Trelawny, in Jamaica, has been entirely settled by German and English immigrants, and on various other estates immi grants are working cheerfully, and are surrounded with every comfort in life; and Maltese and others have already proceeded to Demerara, Grenada, and Tobago. In order to carry out the objects of this Society, it is in tended to use the utmost care in the selection of the emigrants, to insure their being of good moral and religious character, and preference will at all times be given to families, every mem ber of which, from the age of six years and upwards, can be usefully employed on a graduated scale of wages. To effect this a communication will be opened with the pastoral and other local au , horities throughout the United Kingdom, and with agents on the Continent of Europe and other places ; the Register Books will be kept, in which the names, residences, trades, or occupations of persons wishing to emigrate will be inserted with references to character, &c. The Books will be open for the inspection of parties desirous of obtaining Emigrants. It is intended to provide the Emigrants with free passage, medical attendance, and rations, to their several places of des tination, and the Proprietors of the Plantations where they are to be located will employ them on fair liberal wages ; and the Society previous to the embarkation of the Emigrants will re quire the parties by whom they are to be employed to make proper arrangements for their reception on arrival. The Emi grants will have every opportunity of attending to their reli gious duties, and they will also be enabled to correspond with their Families and Friends by regular packets twice a month, and of making or receiving remittances through the various Banks established in the Colonies. In order to secure the mutual interests of Employers and Servants, the Society intend to recommend the latter to enter into contracts, on their arrival in the Colonies, for certain fixed periods; at the expiration of which, if they have been in dustrious, sober, and prudent, they may be enabled to renew their engagements, or to purchase Lands. The principal sources of profit, in the first instance, will be derived from Agency, al the Society will procure the Im migrants, and superintend their embarkation for parties requir ing them, on being paid a stipulated sum for each Emigrant selected ; and, as many mercantile Houses have received in structions from their correspondents abroad to send out Immi grants, it is anticipated that this branch of the Society's opera_ tions will prove lucrative to the Shareholders. This Society offers the opportunity to Planters, and others interested in the Colonies, of procuring labourers with greater facility than they may otherwise possess, and those who become Shareholders will be supplied at a less charge of Agency than non-subscribers. The Island of Jamaica has, by an Act of the Legislature, voted the sum of 50,000/. sterling per annum, for three years, in aid of Immigration, and has appointed an Agent-General to proceed to London for the purpose of arranging Agencies for the collecting and embarking of Immigrants, and this Society will endeavour to make an arrangement with him, on his ar rival, by which the object of his mission may be accomplished. Another branch of profit is expected to be derived from Grants of Land in the Colonies, as it is contemplated that her Majesty's Government, or those of the Colonies, will give the Society grants in proportion to the number of Emigrants sent out. These Lands may hereafter be disposed of or cultivated by the Society or their Immigrants, as may be thought advis able. In the working out of this Society it is anticipated that va rious other sources of emolument may arise. The affairs of the Society are to be conducted by the Com mittee until a Board of Directors is appointed. As the Committee will not enter into any contracts beyond the actual amount of funds at their disposal, no liability will occur to the Shareholders.

In Scotland, ho w e v er , banking, so far from being a luxury, h as become a necessity for all classes ; and a great extension of banking accommoda tion has taken p l ace in Ireland. lle!'c also, we bid fair to do something; what ,sash savings banks and loan funds, things are not quite so bad as they were. Last year's return showed that the amount of deposits in savings banks was 0:2,000,000/., being an increa se of I nearly two millions ; so that an annual accu mulation of capital at least to that extent must take place among the smaller tradesmen and work . ing,. class es . Thi s is pretty good proof of what can be done, and a strong hint to those who entertain doubts of the importance of providing for the pecuniary wants of tho se c l asses. To us it seems th a t these two millions, or twenty-two millions, would have been much better emplo yed in the shape of loans, than being brought back into circula tion by the cumbrous machinery of savings banks and government commissioners. 111 any of the d epos i tors in savings banks are concerned in loan fund transactions, and would do wisely to weigh these . facts, for th ey may rest assured that the most efActeat help must come from themselves. Loan funds, under respactable and responsible directors, are the best means o f carrying out the se o bj ec t s , and cannot fail to be productive a great benefit. We gave an account in a re cent nutn ber of a ver y i n teresting meeting of the Westminster Loan Soci e ty, in Buckingham - street , and we see th at in the same street is another newly-formed i nst i tution which, i n ano th er s phere, proini!es to be e qua ll y useful.'

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—MAIDSTONE, tiny 24. Both Courts sat this day at ten o'clock. The number of prisons r. in the calendar is forty-nine; and of this number only one, a soldier, can read and write; eighteen can nei ther read nor write, and the remainder can only read im perfectly. The Quarter Sessions were only held a few days ago, and this number of prisoners is consequently considered very great; and it is a fact worth mentioning, that the most serious offences, viz., cutting and stabbing, and burglary, appear to have been committed by the most ignorant persons. _ _ There are twenty-seven causes in the Nisi Prius Court, three of these special juries, in one of which it is said that Sir W. Follett is specially retained. Lord Abinger dis posed of a number of trifling causes in the course of the day, but none of them were of any public interest. CROWN COURT. ( Before Mr. Baron GURNEY.) When the Grand Jury bad been sworn, his Lordship proceeded to charge them, and observed, that although the Sessions had so recently been held, he regretted to see that there were a great number of prisoners for trial at the present Assizes. His Lordship then said that he was very sorry to find that in this county, as well as in all the others, the dreadful crime of stabbing appeared to be very prevalent. "In my early days," said bis Lordship, such a crime was unknown in this country, and men were con tent, when they quarrelled, to rely upon the means of defence with which nature furnished them ; but now-a-days, upon the most trifling provocation, the dreadful alternative of the knife is reset ted to immediately e ither party become worsted." It had become highly necessary that the utmost severity of the law should bo put in force is order to check this diabolical practice. In the present calendar there were two cases of manslaughter, ar i s i n g out i of such cir cumstances as he bad referred to; but n one of these cases he had felt it his duty to direct that a bill for murder should be prepared, because, in looking over the deposi. PRICE sd. tions, he found the case was of that character as to ap proach very nearly, if not quite, to that crime. It ap peared that although the prisoner and the deceased had had some words together that the former had gone away and deliberately purchased a knife, and upon his return he had immediately inflicted a wound with it which caused instant death. Under these circumstances he thought it proper that a bill for murder should be preferred against the prisoner, and when all the facts were brought forward, if it appeared that the act was really committed before the prisoner's blood had time to cool, he would have the bene fit of it. After some other general observations, his Lord ship dismissed the Grand Jury to their duties. John Peace, aged 25, and John Brennan, 19, were in dicted for assaulting Henry Harris upon the Queen's highway, and lobbing him of a watch. Mr. CLARKSON defended the prisoners. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecutor, who is a farmer's labourer, was at Folkstone fair on the goth of June, and as he was returning home at night he was knocked down and robbed, and Pearce was clearly proved to have been concerned in the transaction, but the evidence was not conclusive against the other prisoner. The jury found Pearce Guilty and acquitted Brennan. A previous conviction for felony having been proved against Pearce he was sentenced to be transported for life. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAN SION.HOUSE. A young man named James Se/wood was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having robbed his employers, Messrs. Tarsey and Co., of Lad-lane, warehouseman. Mr. Thomas Tarsey stated that a communication having been made to him that the house was being frequently robbed by one of the servants, a search was made on Thursday evening, and he had reason . to be lieve that the concern had been plundered to a very large amount. Close to the place in which the prisoner officiated witness found two small parcels tied up :in brown paper, in the:prisoner's absence, one of these par cels he found to contain broad cloth, and in the other, which he had not had time to examine, was, he be lieved, a similar article. The parcels were deposited in the same spot until the prisoner returned to the ware house. After dinner the prisoner quitted the table be fore any of the other persons employed, and soon after wards left the house, and witness then perceived that one of the parcels was gone. On the same afternoon witness again looked at the spot and found that the place of the absent parcel was filled up with another, and he then put his private mark upon the two and procured the assistance of a policeman, whom he con cealed in the house, with directions to act when re quired. The prisoner upon leaving the house was fol lowed by witness, and overtaken in Aldersgate-street, carrying a brown paper parcel. " Selwood," said wit ness to him, " does this belong to you or to me?" "To me," replied the prisoner, and they returned together to the warehouse, where the parcel was found to contain two yards of broad cloth, and to be one of those which had been privately marked. The LORD MAYOR asked the prosecutor whether he could form any opinion as to the amount of pro perty of which he had been plundered ? Mr. Tarsey said he had not the least idea of the ex tent. He was quite satisfied that another party was concerned. The policeman who took the prisoner into custody said that 191. and some silver was found in the young man's pocket. The prisoner made no observation either in denial or confirmation of the charge, and was remanded. A young men, named Robert Styles was immediately afterwards brought before the Lord Mayor on a similar charge, preferred against him by his employer, Mr. John Margetson, of No. 132, Cheapside, haberdasher. Mr. Margetson said he bad received information that the prisoner had been robbing him, and he went to the prisoner, and told him what he believed to be the fact, and he wished to search his (the prisoner's) house. The prisoner immediately consented, and in his house were found several articles which had been stolen from the concern. The LORD MAYOR—Are you sure that none of these goods were paid for ? Mr. Margetson—We are sure of it. The prisoner did not utter a word, and was re manded for a week. A gentleman waited upon the Lord Mayor for the purpose of returning his warmest thanks, in the most public manner, to the police, for the very great readi ness, zeal, and skill, with which they assisted him in re covering a horse and cart of which he had been rob bed. He declared that it was entirely in consequence of the active exertions of the body that he recovered his property, which had got into the very worst hands. The LORD MAYOR was happy to hear such testi mony borne to the good conduct of the City Police, of whose capabilities he was well assured, as well as of the excellence of the system, and he wished the gentle man to speak to the City Police Commissioner on the subject. Sergeant Williams (of the City Police)—My Lord, believe a I eT e hx i e u t v rLe e o t he eßpryo MAYOR—Oh, credit Police.—(A o e .y ll managed , ARa f : al a th goue the hd .a)w n well, l detection is due to the Me tropolitanboth a mv establishmentsery happy that the gentleman has succeeded in recovering his property. TEMPERA NCE.—The wife of an Irishman, who works at one of the most extensive wharfs on the banks of the Thames, was brought up. Some respectable men, who had seen her in one of the alcoves of London-bridge at eleven o'clock on the preceding night in a state of great excitement, placed her in the custody of a police man, in the fear that it was her intention to destroy herself. She denied that she bad any notion of the kind, but stated that her husband and she had quar relled, that he had blackened her eye, and that she was merely going to put herself under the protection of her brother. The husband attended, and said that the whole of the dispute arose from infernal drink. His wife, he admitted, very seldom took a fancy that way ; but when she did, no one in the world could stand her tongue— it was "full of deadly poison." The LORD AlAYOR—Have you got any children? Husband—Yes, my Lord, three ; and she his every thing comfortable for them. There is nothing to pre vent her from being happy, or me either, it she would keep down her tongue, and never drink to excess. The LORD MAYOR—Then you are a member of the Temperance Society ? Husband—l am, your Lord ship. I have been a sober man these six months. The LORD MAYOR—And why, my good woman, don't you join the Temperance Society with your husband? Husband—l don't want her to become a member, my Lord. A woman ought not to make such an acknowledgment, but I was a drinking man. Thank God I am cured. The LORD MAYOR—Why, you have bard work to do. You drink porter, I suppose, in moderate quan tities ? Husband—Not a drop. The Loan MAYOR—Not a drop of beer or spirits? Husband—Not a drop. The LORD MAYOR—And do you find that you arc able to work as well as when you were in the habit of drinking ? Husband—A great deal better—no com parison at all. The Loan MAYOR—And what do you. drink when you are at work ?" Husband—Sometimes I take a little ginger beer, but I never am thirsty. It is the beer and spirits that used to make me thirsty. I never touch any now, and I never want anything. Mr. Nobler—Then nothing could tempt you to e turn to your old habits ? Husband—Nothing. I give my wife a pound every week to keep things comfortable at home. She can't deny anything I have said. The Wife—l deny that I was in drink. The Gentleman who saw the woman on the bridge said that she did not appear to have the least symptom of liquor about her. Husband—She brought stones into the house to pelt at me. Nothing but liquor could make her do that, and nothing but liquor could make her tongue so dread ful. I don't like any now, but I know what it can do. The LORD MAYOR—My good woman, I would have you follow your husband's example. Husband—Please your Lordship, I don't want to bar her of porter or anything she likes in moderation. I don't wish to compel anybody to follow my example, but I know how different I am myself from what I used to be. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, take her home with you. Don't raise your hand , to her, and I think I can answer for her future caution and kindness. I shall be very glad to hear that you have drank each other's health in ginger-beer.—(A laugh.) The above conversation was listened to with great attention. In the course of the day a poor bloated creature, who was in the room during the last scene, was brought up, charged with having been in a helpless state of intoxica tion on the night before. Th e LORD MAYOR —Why, Mrs. M'Evoy, t hi s i s the twentieth time you have been here before me for getting drunk. Mrs. M'Evoy—Upon my sowl, my Lord, it was no thing but starvation. The LORD MAYOR—Why, buoger would not make you drunk. Mrs. M'Evoy—Oh, but a very little drop of gin a top of the hunger would sure enough ; but I will never get drunk again as long as I live if you let me go, your Lordship. The LORD MAYOR—What ! you'll promise me never to drink anything but water ? Mrs. M'Evoy—l will, upon my sowl, your Lord ship. I'll drink nothing but water if you order me ; but may be you'd allow me to take now and thin a little drop of ginger beer.—(Laughter.) She then moved off with a low curtsey. VaCas rhk tIoWNINti 1405itin# Tait (Prom the Times.) A Treasury Journal of yesterday :horning 'Wet the melancholy fact, founded on " representations" from Ire land, that the poor and labouring classes of that country are at present suffering the utmost distress through scar. city of food and want of employment; that the dtficient supply of last year is nearly exhausted ; and that the gloomiest forebodings are entertained as to the prospects of the ensuing harvest. This is a sad picture for any humane mind to contemplate. But the motives, and in deed the accuracy, of the " representations," becomes liable to no small suspicion, when we find it made the preface to an unceremonious, and we take upon our selves to say, a false and stupid, calumny upon the land lords of Ireland, sneeringly called the "natural protectors" of the people. It is said that by the resistance of the landlords to the importation of " foreign flour" into the country, the distress, approaching to famine, among the poor has been in great part created ! The non-importa 7 don of flour into Ireland producing a want of subsistence among the labourers of that island, is something new in national history. Why, who ever heard of the poor of Ireland living on wheaten flour, or even tasting it, or wish ing to taste it, from one year's end to another? The Treasury journal might as well harangue upon the dcmi nakedness of the Irish poor being caused by the non-im portation of diamonds into Munster, seeing that they are just as much fed on flour as they are clad in jewels and embroidery. Everybody knows (we thought, until now, that every fool had known it) the national food of Ireland to be the potato, as it is in all those parts of Scotland where the supply of oatmeal fails. (From the Morning Advertiser.) At the very moment when the Times, in defiance of the broadest evidences of discrepancy and discord, vaunts the " cohesion" and unanimity of the Tory faction, out comes the declaration of the Duke of Wellington against the claims put forward by the Church, and spreads still more dismay and distraction amongst the ranks of those desirous to rally under the prestige of his name. His Grace read the bigot and intolerant zealots of the Church a lecture whence they may derive most opportune instruct lion. Ho told them broadly of the folly of expecting in these times that the public money would be applied to supply the deficiency of the Church, while it had ample resources within itself for that purpose. He ex pressed his "astonishment" at the proceedings of the Uni versity of Oxford in petitioning against the Ecclesiastical Revenues Bill—a Bill so well calculated to remedy the evils universally admitted to prevail in the parochial sys tem of the Church in this country ; and he complimented the Church and the Ecclesiastical Commissioners in re commending a measure fraught with so much advantage to the public and to the Church establishment, without ap plying for the assistance of the public money. - The Noble Duke is but too often slow in perceiving the signs of the times, and the advances of opinion, so that when he gives expression to language of this kind it may be regarded as the result of most reluctant conviction—and therefore it must prove the more disheartening to the hopes of those marauders who, under pretence of religious purposes, would commit the grossest violations of common honesty and justice. With the Duke's high sense of moral recti tude, it is utterly impossible that he can lend the sanction of his name to the extravagant and aggressive pretensions put forward by the Church. (From the Morning Herald.) We yesterday called the attention of the public to the Ecclesiastical Duties and Revenues Bill which has passed the House of Commons, and is now before the Lords ; and we explained the serious injury to the property of the deans and chapters which that Bill, if carried into effect, would cause. The injury and spoliation of the property of the deans and chapters are, however, not the sole points in the Bill to be complained of. What will be the condition of the unfortunate lessees of all the ecclesiastical property in the country belonging to sole corporations, such as deans, prebendaries, and canons? If this Bill should pass into a law, by far the greater part of these lessees and their families will be reduced to absolute ruin. They appear,up to this time, to have been entirely unacquainted with the de tails cf this Bill, and of its disastrous consequences to them selves. By the 44th and 45th sections of that Bill, all the separate propel ty of deans, canons, and prebendaries will become absolutely and for ever vested, without any further conveyance, in the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for England, and their successors. These Commissioners are not empowered by the Bill to grant renewals of leases ; but if they had the power, would they grant renewals ? The object of the Bill is to prevent any further renewals, and to secure for the Church, by an act of spoliation, a large increase in the number of livings. We admit the increase of livings to be a desirable object ; but good ends ought not to be attained by unjust means. The present lessees hold their property by a tenure which has been sanctioned by the usage of centuries—a tenure which has been created by Acts of Parliament ; and they have had that best security for the continuance of the tenure which arises from its being the interest of their lessors, the deans and prebendaries (who have hitherto had life es tates only in the property) to grant renewals. Under these circumstances the lessees have expended large sums of money in improving the Church property. (From the Morning Po,t.) They who read Plutarch, and have a fancy for study ing " parallels " in the characters of great men, must long ere this have associated in their minds oar present Prime Minister and Sir John Falstaff We have not time now to run through the points of similarity, many of which must spontaneously occur to every body ; but we beg to suggest a point or two in which there is a union of simi larity with contrast. For instance, the fat Knight wits followed by a very ragged regiment, of which the re putation was even more ragged than the garments. So far the similarity is- perfect ; but " honest " Jack, though not very scrupulous, had some shame on ac count of his followers. He would not march through Coventry with them. Here we perceive a contrast. Our Prime Minister has long ago got rid of all such qualms as occurred to his prototype. lie has as bad as opinion of his rogues as ever Falstaff had, but he has no objection to march through Coventry with them. What is it to him ? They count on the tnuster.roll as well Ms if they were decent respectable men, fit for the Queen's ser vice, and as he fs sure of his pay, so long as he can keep up his number, the count is all he cares about. Again, we are told of the fat Knight that ho was not only witty himself, but the cause of wit in others. Our Ministerial chief is said to be a pleasant fellow enough, especially after a dinner which he has not had the care and anxiety of providing. We can well believe it ; and here again there is a likeness to Sir John ; but as to the effect of his pleasantry in others, we must own that the similitude appears to fail, for a duller set than those he keeps political company with never inflicted torpor on society, or sent a Senate to its slumbers. If Lord Melbourne be witty himself, he is not the cause of wit in others. Hero, however, the association of contrast suggests another un doubted point of Lord Melbourne's character. It may with the most perfect truth be predicated concerning hint that he is not only unpopular himself, but the cause of un popultrity in others. Of his own unpopularity the sibills tions of the multitude when he is recognised in public must have informed him with pretty considerable distinctness. If he have any doubt about his being the cause of unpopu. larity in others, let him ask his Private Secretary, who, after the experience of the last eight or ten days in East Cumberland, can most certainly confirm our report. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. (FRIDAY EVENING.) POST.—Complaints have been made to us by com mercial men of the issuing, by some of the country banks, of bills of exchange ffot having stamps upon them, without the necessary explanation that the duty has, where such is the fact, been compounded for with the Government under a late Act of Parliament. It would be perfectly easy to indicate this in one corner of the bill, and there can be no doubt of the propriety of some thing of the kind being done. The public are not familiar with unstamped bills of exchange, and they are consequently less current at a distance than they are intended to be. The impression of any informality in the instrument would be at once removed from the mind of a strangCr to the newly-introduced mode of drawing by the addition of a few words, engraved or otherwise, to the effect pointed out. SUN.—The Foreign Exchanges were heavy again this afternoon, and the rates for bills were generally more against the drawers than on last post day. Very unsatisfactory accounts have been received this afternoon from the northern fisheries, the number of whales taken averaging to each vessel barely two. Throughout the day the funds have evinced a ten dency to decline, showing no symptoms of a rally at the termination of business. This remark applies as well to the value . of the floating debt, w hi c h f e ll 3 s . t o -d ay . The depression in Consols was about a per cent. As the weather is by no means favourable it seems probable that the Bear party will b eg i n t o s h ow a bold f ron t a gain, .indeed they ha ve no t a l rea dy b egun o p era tio ns . For immediate transfer Consols brought 91:1 to 91i, and for the month of August 92 to 911, each closing about the intermediate value. Exchequer Bills did not range higher than 225. to 245. premium, and India Bonds dropped to par and 2s. premium. Bank Stock was rather firm at 175 ; the Reduced Three-and-a- Half per Cents. were marked 1001 to 100, and the Three per Cent. Reduced 92 to 92. The Foreign Stocks all closed heavily. The Share Market was very quiet, but where sales were attetnoted lower rates were submitted to. Great \Ves'ern Railway shares obtained 37 to 36 ; New 17 to 16 ; London and Birmingham 91 ; Blackwall 11 to 2 ; North Midland, New, 4 ; South Western 19i ; and Hull and Selby 2s. premium. Birmingham and Glou cester shares were at Gs. discount, and Manchester and Birmingham 9f discount. London and Westminster Bank shares touched 4i premium. - - -- - S OM ETHING NEW FROM ~, CO TLAND.—In the llouse of Commons, Mr. Hume's motion to permit the opening s o u f ci t l be ho ß u r r i s tis a h s A t l h u e s e u h m o us o e n Su s of licensednda y s"a , vi c ft t e u r a i divine f se se rv il i e c r e s , at f beer, and of gin shops, are now legally open to the public," w as negatived by a majority of 82 to 44.
