THE WEEK. THE great event of the week is the dissolution of Parliament, and the issue of the writs for a new election. We have,' at length, arrived at the point from which we can contemplate calmly the progress thus far of a Conservative government, and gather from the past some augury of what the future has in store for us. The Earl of DERBY and his col leagues assumed the reins of power under circum stances of difficulty of the most appalling nature. They were in a decided minority in the House of Commons, and the factions that were arrayed against them were active and unscrupulous. The most important offices in the state were in the hands of men unlearnt in official ways, and the premier himself had never controlled a cabinet or dictated a policy. It was prophecied that they would, at the very outset of their attempt to govern, become entangled with administrative difficulties ; or by some rash avowal of an ultra-Protectionist policy draw down upon themselves an opposition before which they would have to retire in utter discom fiture. These prophecies, however, it was soon seen, were not to be realised. Facing all the diffi culties of their position, they proceeded calmly and firmly with the business of the session, winning the public confidence at every step, and displaying an amount of ability for which the community had been entirely unprepared ; and, at the close of an arduous session, during which their labours have been materially restricted to matters considered to be " necessary," they are enabled to point, in the address put into the lips of their sovereign, to a number of most valuable measures carried out to a successful issue. Large and useful reforms in the administration of law and justice have beep achieved. Important measures of sanatory improve ment have been passed. Our colonial empire has been ably governed—and an emergency of difficulties, arising from the discoveries in Australia, has been vigorously grappled with. Our relations with foreign powers are in the most satisfactory position; and above all, the prerogative of the crown in this country has been resolutely asserted and maintained, and the defence of our soil from foreign aggression has been provided for. Well may the country, at the close of such a session, feel their confidence assured, and entertain high hopes of the future policy and administration of those statesmen who have already effected so much of good under cir cumstances so disheartening. The elections, which commence this day in a large number of the cities and boroughs in England, form the all-absorbing topic. It has been remarked, during the past week, that a large accession has been made to the number of the candidates who profess to be supporters of the DERBY adminis tration. In many places where, previously, Whig- Radicals were expecting to be returned without didates are in the field with The constituencies ebleness and and alarmed at the vulgarity rty is prepared to owledge of this opposition, rival C couraging ation of t Df the men w that the issue of the polling will be the triumphant return of both these gentlemen, although a few parties, former supporters of Mr. CARDWELL an d in timate friends of some of his party, predict that he will be the second on the poll. If the temper , how ever, displayed by that gentleman at the Amphi theatre, and the increased recklessness of assertion and conduct manifested by his committee be any sign, their hopes are daily waning. His speech on Friday was quite in the " Hercules vein," and his appearance whilst delivering it, was that of a man who was thinking all the while that he was wasting his breath upon a set of people incapable of ap preciating his eminent talents. His attack upon Lord JOHN MANNERS was out of place and in wretched taste, and shewed that he was in that not very happy frame of mind when a man is ready to " run amuck" at every body and every thing. Possibly Mr. CARDWELL had become aware of the fact that Clitheroe was no longer left open to him as a dernier ressort ; his warming-pan, Mr. M. Wthsox, being vigorously opposed, with nearly a certainty of success, by a Conservative gentleman in the locality, Mr. ASPINALL. Wicked rumour says that Mr. CARDWELL was a short while ago trying the ground in that quarter. Another on dit is, that he has been exercising his powers of entreaty in private letters to rather distant voters, which does not augur great confidence in the returns made by the queer set of people who are seen every day emerging from his committee room in Clayton-square. Even more palpably than their candidate, his clacqueurs show symptoms of increased excitement and anxiety. Mr. JEFFREY in particular appears to be in an awful state of mind ; and has made some discoveries during the week of quite an extra ordinary character. He has found that shipwrights are just now receiving a day and a-half's pay for a day's work ; and that a ship is actually lying in one of our docks, which cannot be repaired for want of hands ! If Mr. JEFFREY would only guarantee our shipwrights the continuance of such a happy state of things, how delighted the poor fellows would he ! Another discovery, in which it is said Mr. JEFFREY only assisted—that of the celebrated " Orange Pikes," has just been proved, much, no doubt, to his dissatisfaction, to be a mare's nest or a blunder. One passage in this deluded gentle man's speech we must extract. The report (Jour nal) says : - - - " He then proceeded to notice certain placards which had appeared on the walls during the week. Reference had been made to the merchant candidate on the other side, and the one on their own. Now, certain questions appeared is these placards addressed to Mr. TURNER, whom it behoved to answer satisfactorily, and these an swers ought to be certified by the signature of the Chief Magistrate." This is in very bad taste, considering the relative positions of the accuser and the accused. But Mr. JEFFREY'S impertinences cannot injure Mr. TURNER. This day the tug of war begins, and to-morrow, most likely, will send some of these meteors of the hour back to their legitimate avocations, each " A sadder and a wiser man." TO THE PROTESTANTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. The Managing Committee of the Protestant Alliance earnestly invite the attention of Protestants in every part of the kingdom to the important duties which now devolve upon them. The House of Commons has entirely set aside the demands recently made by upwards of 300,000 petitioners, praying for the repeal of the Maynooth Endowment Act ; and even the moderate proposal made by Mr. Spooner for an inquiry into the education given at Maynooth has been practically rejected by the obstructive tactics of the Romish party in the house. The question being thus returned to the public for de termination, the Managing Committee of the Protestant Alliance trust that, in addressing their representatives, the people will speak in no doubtful or hesitating voice, but will firmly demand the entire repeal of the Maynooth Endowment Act of 1845 ;—the withdrawal (f all grants out of the national funds for the support of Roniish priests ;—and the subjection of conventual establishments to the inspection and control of the law. There are some questions by many regarded as of great moment to the national welfare, which may now be consi dered as virtually decided ; but the question now raised between Protestantism and Popery is not only one of para mount importance, but will require the most strenuous exertions in order to secure a speedy and satisfactory decision. The Managing Committee of the Protestant Alliance would therefore strongly urge these considerations upon Protestants of every class ; and while they would counsel moderation and forbearance upon points of minor import ance. they trust that upon the vital question now at issue, a firm and united front will be presented to the common foe of true religion and liberty. JOHN MACGREGOR, Hon. Sec. 9, Serjeants' Inn, Fleet-street, June, 1852. HOW FOREIGNERS RECIPROCATE WITH US. ONE of the causes why the community do not clearly perceive the extent to which we are injured by the foreigner withholding from us the privilege of entering his market, whilst we throw open our own unreservedly, arises from the fact that most foreign countries levy their customs' revenues by means of specific duties. Thus, when we are told that the duty on any article is so much per cwt., it is not at once perceived how much that is per cent. The following Table, which has recently been published by Mr. NEWDEGATE, who has taken the trouble to calculate the pressure of foreign taxation upon Bri valorem, will probably startle not a few of :ish articles ad lur readers : ttg Ff .

Wavertree, July, 1852. R. SMITH, G.P.A . FOREIGN NEWS. FRANCE On Monday Louis Napoleon dismissed his Legislative Assembly from their first session with a message of " con ciliation and peace," read in person and favourably re ceived. The application of a new system, said the Prince, always meets with difficulties. Nevertheless the first trial of a Constitution altogether of French origin must have convinced the representatives that France possesses the conditions of a strong and free Government. He concluded :—" At that imposing spectacle, at which reli gion consecrated by its benedictions a great national fete, you have marked their respectful demeanour, you have beheld that army so proud, which saved the country, raise itself still higher in men's esteem, in kneeling piously before the image of God, presented from the height of the altar. That implirs that there is in France a Government animated by faith, and by a love of good—which rests for support on the people, the source of all power—on the army, the source of all strength—and on religion, the source of all justice." The members of the French legislative body had their farewell dinner on I uesday last, at which M. Billault pre sided. It was agreed upon that no speeches should be made upon the occasion, and the only toast proposed was that of " Prince Louis Napoleon," which was received most enthusiastically. The principal item of intelligence from Paris is the dis covery of a plot against the government, thirteen persons having been apprehended on Thursday night, in the Rue Reine Blanche, in the act of constructing an "infernal machine," to be employed probably against the President. The Pafrie states that " at the moment the conspirators were apprehended they were occupied in manufacturing out of gas-pipes a species of shells of a calibre of from eight to nine centimetres in diameter, slightly bent at one of the ends, and plugged with a band of stout canvas covered with tar. Ten of these tubes, each capable of containing a number of small balls, were found completely finished.' Some important papers were also seized, which clearly show the designs of the party, who are said to have been in correspondence with the refugees in London. A considerable number of persons have been arrested. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE HERMANN. On Thursday evening, at six o'clock, the United States mail steam-ship Hermann, Lieut. Higgins, commander, arrived off Cowes on her way to Bremen, with the American mails, ninety-two passengers, and a small amount of specie for Havre, the mails and passengers being transhipped to a Southampton steamer; the Hermann proceeded on her voyaee to Bremen. The Liverpool and Philadelphia Company's screw steam. ship City of Glasgow, from hence, arrived out at Phila delphia on the 18th ult., and the British and North Amer can royal mail Company's-steamer Europa. with the mails from hence, arrived out at New York on the 19th ult. ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA The Royal Mail steam-ship America, Shannon, com mander, with advices from New York to the 22nd ultimo, and Boston to the 23rd, arrived in the Mersey at half-past six o'clock on Sunday evening. The America sailed from Boston at noon on the 23rd, and at 7 20, a.m.. on the 24th, passed the steam-ship Niagara, hence for Boston. At 2 55, a.m., on the 25th, she arrived at Halifax. and, after a detention of one hour and fifteen minutes, to embark mails, ecc., she again pro ceeded. The America brought 74 passengers, and 8289,000 in specie, on freight. The United States mail steam-ship Franklin, Wootton, commander, which sailed from Cowes Roads on the 9th ult., arrived at New York on the 21st. Our miscellaneous advices mention that one of the largest stock operators in Boston had failed in his engage ments. An oil merchant had also suspended. The Whig National Convention, at Baltimore, had nominated Gen. Winfield Scott, of New Jersey, for President, and William A. Graham, of North Carolina, for Vice-President. The New ]'ork Herald says, "An important extradition case, under the act of treaty between the United States and Great Britain and other foreign nations, is now pend ing before Mr. Commissioner Bridgham, in this city. It appears that Anthony Barclay, Esq., the vigilant British consul of New York, claims the extradition of Thomas Kaine, an alleged fugitive criminal, who is charged with shooting at and wounding, with intent to kill, a farmer named Balfe, in the county of Westmeath, Ireland, in May, 1851. This is, we believe, the first instance in which a fugitive has been claimed in this city, under the act of treaty, for a capital offence, and the result will be looked for with a great degree of national interest." Late intelligence from Central America is contained in the following communication from New Orleans :—By an arrival from Honduras, we learn that the inhabitants of Ruatan, as well as five other islands dependant on Hon duras Bay, had refused to acknowledge British authority, and claimed the protection of Honduras, which had been accorded to them. The superintendent had given orders to have the Government buildings at Ruatan sold, which was done at a great sacrifice. Everything was in a state of rebellion and disorder, and the most serious conse quences are apprehended. The British P. S. Navigation Company's steamer San tiago arrived at Panama on the 3d June. Flores was still at Puna. He had nine vessels, plenty of funds, and only waited for the steamer Quickstep, to attack •Guayaquil. He had some twenty Guayaquilian prisoners, and, when two of his men were taken, be sent word that he would murder all the twenty if one of his were harmed. The French population at Guayaquil had most of them taken quarters under the protection of the French consul. The American ship-of-war Raritan, and a British and a French corvette, were still there. Advices from San Juan del Norte to the 11th June mention that, on the 2nd, her Majesty's war-steamer Albion arrived at the port of San Juan del Norte. or Grey town, with the British commodore of the West India station, who notified to the authorities that the Govern ments of Great Britain and the United States had agreed to guarantee the independence of San Juan. Commodore Parker, of the Saranak, whom the British commodore ex pected to meet, had not arrived, but there was no doubt of his concurrence on the part of his Government. Com missioners had proceeded to Costa Rica and Nicaragua for the purpose of definitely settling the boundaries of the territory of San Juan. In the neighbourhood of San Juan, and on the Isthmus of Panama, robberies were become very frequent. Commodore Aldham, of her Majesty's sloop Swift, at anchor off San Jose, Lower California, had made a protest against the seizure made by the captain of the port of San Jose of the person and property of Mr. Ritchie, a British subject, and against the sale of his property by the Mexi can Government. The protest, if broken, would, it was thought, create a serious rupture between the English Government and that of Mexico. Advices from Valparaisb to the 15th May, mention that charters for guano to London were £2 per ton. Advices from Toronto, which extend to the 18th, do not contain any intelligence. _ _ _ . . _ From Havana we have advices to the 14th ult., but they are devoid of news. NEW YORK, JUNE 22. MONEY MARKET.—There is no new feature to notice in the Stock Market. Government Stocks and other leading securities are in demand for investment, and prices are very firm. In almost every department of trade, business is quiet, consequently the demand for money from these sources is light, as is usual at this reason of the year. The supply is much greater than the demand, giv. ing the borrowers the advantage in negotiations. The demand for Foreign Exchange is not active, but rates are firm : London, 110 to 110} ; Paris, 5.16/- to 5.15 ; Am sterdam. 40i to 41 ; Hamburg, 361 to 361; Bremen, 78t to 79 ; Frankfort, 40/- to 401.

A. most desperate conflict took place on Tuesday night last, between the English and Irish population of Stock port, which hts unfortunately resulted in the loss of one life, the infliction of serious injury upon upwards of sixty perst&s, and the destruction of a considerable amount of property, including two Roman Catholic chapels. The origin of the affair is by some stated to have been a pro cession of Roman Catholic scholars on the previous Sun day, carrying religious emblems, and escorted by a body of men, chiefly strangers, arrayed as if for defence against attack, There was, however, on that day no collision ; but it has been proved before the magistrates, and before the coroner's jury summonedtoinquireintothe cause of the death of a young man who lost his life in the affray, that an ill-feeling had been created between the English and the Irish by the procession in question. There has always, in fact, been a smouldering feud between the Irish portion of the working classes of our manufacturing towns and the native English, and this only required the spark to be applied to create such an affray as has taken place. On Monday, it appears that considerable excitement existed in both parties, caused, it is said, by the Irish having boasted of the non-interruption of their procession as a triumph over the government proclamation. In the evening a quarrel took place at the Bishop Blaize public house, in the Hillgate, and it shortly assumed the aspect of a faction fight, the Irish bringing up their forces froze their own quarter of the town, and the English strength eniug themselves in the same way. After some fighting the former were beaten, and driven to their own homes On the following day, however, it was actively reports that they would make an effort to retrieve their loss, ar on Tuesday night, about si- 600 adjourn€ : their- eaten pasralinalrr: e w_enmean to tender the ;, is v c i ing more bels ,holics i co _ u der these circurnstaeC pct,, mmon• sense character--ie 0 s ll' ye to all Englishr°3 naieti, l• Let thew be fleii 11;.: their duties or t:a0i011', . can be no absolute Ouv ~,eir -•"`at parade of • -Or t', .11 ed not declare their number, a 1%0 . , against the English, their 'religioo, : tb l ev, and open war against th'Ae 10 f ‘pretend a spiritual conquest of th e ' not ls fulminate pastorals , edicts and al' ivi r L U tion n the sane to all s":o3t r' I not enscti,ioaonisd atbseir:o6o,7ll.tte'es:: _ need than are necessary to aoll°ll,iol' burn Protestant Bibles ; 'oce t,), ~-.s not get up pompous ProcetensY L 1. in fancy even quite necessary ths ~ ,,, 5 0 ' fenCY costumes • all these tio"- p 0 "ve in the' midst of ip tl sibly rather too csuucilt fad t less necessarY bat ct.) movements doing " e t billi v persist in doiog theft of ft queoces ; for no ltt.t°,,rt, PC IF they see St Stocsiwa tbe no soldiers, will sl; 08 They will sal', Ver° f'or.!l nme to the strean,..„ 4,),1 he 'wolf will 1-, 0, t ~...
