TUESDAY MO RN INC, AUr;UST 22, 1843. Inentary history has afforded us many in stances of men entering the arena of the House of roTnmons, the idol or the bantling of a party, and )thin;; eventually its disgrace; but we never re- ) have noti-A a case in which the latter conso.,. .tion has be,:n achieved, with such short breathing time between, as in that of the League member for the city of Durham. Other men have gr: looted in their declen.ion ;—from pretension to oratory they hay:: come to frequent talking only; from chattering they have fallen to the rank of bores; and pri,gressing still downward, have either fallen into mute insignificance or, resigning the hope of honourable fame, have rushed to the achievement of an unenviable notoriety. But Mr. John I' iuht has, in one short week, overleaped all these ordinary gradations, and, baffled in his first effort zo be great, has at once resolved upon becom ing ridiculous. During the (lobate on Xednesday night, upon the C" - ; ) ensioners' Bill —a measure which bin evi i for the p! .nervation of law and order, ;s of course ,pposed vigorously by the ultra-Radical sec ion of tae house and by the Anti-Corn-law League—Mr. John bright gave utterance to the following assertion, which we give verbatim, in its • - ;;zinal quaker dress:— " Tiore was a ritoirPtr in T,ancashire last year, which was -iry generally believer? ind had never been contra dich ! by the ministry, a portion of the military, when called upon to act ~n ai».el the rioters, had gronnded their arms and refused so. He (Mr. Bright) did not know that it was so .1(1 would not assert it to be the case; b , .! he believed that the Secretary-at-War coula not get up in his pince and say that it is not." Now be to attention of the public, and we beg the of this honorable (!) person's con stituents, to this corn . mind of mendacious insinua tion and jesuitry —or, more properly perhaps, qua • kerism. First, " there —is a rumour," which was " very generally believed;" and that rumour " had never been contradicter. by the ministry." So far the evidence is rather loose—too loose to found a verdict or even a charge upon; and John Bright 1.. )reeds to give it a little extra colouring. "He did not know that it was so"—he "would not assert that it was the case ;" oh, no ! he was quite inno cent of any knowledge of the truth of the circum stance, which he charged against the government; and he would not assert that, which he nevertheless hinted to be the case. The hint from a member of the Society of Friends, who never assert any thing, as a ll ►he world knows, equivalent to an asser tion, the most direct, from any other man. The charge, conveyed it is true in quaker subtlety of phrase, was therefore fully brought ; and John Bright proceeded to clinch it by saying, in his pecu -I;arly knowing way, no doubt, that "he believed that the Sec ry-at-NlTar would not get, up in his place and" de that his representation of facts was accurate 1 We defy ill the world to produce a more direct char-- - ! that coining from the lips of one who fro ais has beta trained to the quaker art of s..ooting , words round a corner. In another man the whole passage would amount only to a suggestio falsi; from the lips of a quaker, it is so fortified with circumstances that you would in stinctivel7 - onclude that he could bring direct evi dence of a-s perfect truth. And yet what was the fact. The Secretary-at-War—and who would mea sure the credibility of the gallant Sir Henry Har dinge with that of this shuffling sectarian ?—" de nied positively that such a thing had ever taken place"! John Bright believed C') that the Secre tary-at-War could nut get up in his place and say that it had not." He plainly said —or, at least, as plainly as quakers ever do say a thing—that the Se cretai y-at-War was aware of the circumstance; Sir Henry Hardinge—a Goldier and a gentleman— denied at once and entirely the truth of the whole facts insinuated! But mark the next shuffle of the confronted slanderer; how characteristic of the race of drab and brown ! John Bright " did not state that such was the case, but merely that it was said so !" A prototype of his, we remember, remarked to a poor canine brute who had offended him, " I will not kill thee, friend, bu .. I will give thee a bad name—mad dog, mad dog "! Veracious John's evasion, however, did not serve him. There was in the house a member, who though a liberal, is yet an honourable man; and thus Mr. G. W. Wood re marked upon the statement of the member for Durham. \lr. Wood declared that " he had never even heard that anything of the kind had ever taken place, though he was in Lancashire all the time (!) on the con. ary, he could assure the house that the conduct of the military gave the greatest satisfac tion" ! In what light ought this man to stand in the eyes of all mankind! Our contemporary, the London Times, is angry with Lord Sandon, for presAning to treat at their proper value the impertinences of a set of young members of the H ouse o f C ommons, w h o appear to be especial protogees of that erratic journal. His lordship, on a recent occasion, took the opportunity to intimate to Mr. B. D'lsraeli a fact, which has suggested itself to many other people, that it is scarcely decent in himself and the cligne of self satisfied new lights of the house, who style them selves "Yount England," to be upon every question 05truding themselves as censors of the policy of government; and the Times forthwith launches into . a denunciation of his lordship's conduct, as an at tempt to put down the expression of the " indepen •nt views" of the young gentlemen in question. Young England" is the personation of wisdom— te reflection the philosophy of " the Times." Young Englund busies itself with important public ques tions whilst the rest of the world is feeding or asleep. Ergo, Young England, argues our con temporary, ought to talk ad libitum, and to embar rass with its crudities the Conservative government, which it professes to support, at its pleasure. Now we cannot say that we have ever recognised, in Mr. D'lsraeli, Lord John Winners, Mr. Smythe, and the rest of their coterie, any indications of that surprising ability, or that striking wisdom, which induce us to suppose that at any future time they are likely to take a lead in the affairs of their coun try. We utterly deny that they fairly represent the young intellect of the empire. To a certain origi nality of political sentiment they do indeed justly lay claim ; and we are thankful that such is the case. Theirs is indeed an original, and, we are happy to think, a rare kind of Conservatism. They possess somewhat erratic notions of the mode in which Ireland is to be pacified and England made happy and powerful; but we do not anticipate for their novelties any very general support at any pe riod present or to come. And hence we cannot dis cover their claims to be permitted to arrogate !,o themselves the privilege of interrupting the progress of Conservative legislation. Their constituents did not send them to Parliament to strike out new paths to good government—to invent a new Conserva tism ; and still less to dictate their fantastic lights for the adoption of older and wiser and more trusty leaders. They were sent to Parliament, not to ob struct, but to support, the measures of a Conserva tive administration. We are ready at all times to acknowledge the claims of rising talent. We rejoice at all times to see youth devoting its energies to public usefulness. But we c• nnot see, in the fact that Mr. D'lsraeli and his friends are zealous and attentive to their Parliamentary duties, any ground for their assump tion of dictatorial authority towards a ministry, every member of which is as • far superior in mind and intellect to the author of those fourth-rate novels, which are supposed to be the work of Mr. Benjamin D'lsraeli's pen, as the Iliad is superior to a penny ahnanack or a column of any one of our radical contemporaries. " What's in a natne ?" was the enquiry of Shakspeare; but, in these modern days, the most Interesting query which suggests itself in the ques tion—What's in an oath ? Of a custom-house oath the world knew the value, when such oaths were in exi•tence. We refer not, however, to these. We want to know the meaning of an oath, taken so lemnly in the face of their country, by peers and members of the House of Commons, of which the following is the wording : " I do swear to defend to the utmost of my power the settlement of property in this realm, as established by the law ; and I disclaim, disavow, and abjure any intention to subvert the Church establishment as settled by law within these realms; and I do so lemnly swear that I never will exercise any privilege to which I am or may be entitled to disturb or weaken the Protestant religion or the Protestant go vernment in the Uni:ed Kingdom ; and I do solemnly, in the presence of Goa, profess, testify, and declare that I do make this declaration and every part thereof IN THE PLAIN AND ORDINARY SENSE OF THE WORDS OF THIS OATH, WITHOUT ANY EVASION, EQUIVOCATION, OR MENTAL RESER VATION WHATEVER, SO HELP ME GOD." Of this oath we want to know the meaning. It is taken by every Roman Catholic peer and every Roman Catholic member who enters the British par liament. It was devised as a safeguard of the Pro testant institutions of the country when these men were admitted to seats in the legislature ; and we want to ascertain to what extent it is such a safe guard—whether, in fact, it is in operation at all, or is only a solemn mockery. The debate in the Ilouse of Lords on Tuesday last affords us some clue to the solution of our diffi culty, and that a very unsatisfactory one. It has all along appeared to us inconceivable that men, who had thus solemnly pledged themselves before their country and their God, could yet entertain motions, and institute motions, having for their object that very spoliation of the Protestant institutions of the empire, which they were vowed to abstain from en tering upon. That difficulty, however, was in part got over by the plea urged by liberalism, that to take a portion of her revenues from the Protestant church in Ireland w s, not to weaken, but to strengthen the position of that church. We are now, however, placed in a changed position. We have no longer bit by bit spoliation, such as might be just'fied by such a plea, to contemplate. Roman Catholic mem bers of bGth houses talk now'of no such meagre measures. It is the total extinction of that church— the total alienation of her revenues—the destruction of the Protestantism of Ireland—which is now openly, and with their oaths before them, sought by the Roman Catholic members of the legislature ; and it becomes a matter of solemn and serious conside ration to determine what is the meaning and efficacy of this obligation, entered into." without any eva sion, equivocation, or mental reservation whatever," or whether it has any real binding force, or is any thing better than a barefaced and deliberate prosti tution of truth. Lord Camoys and the Earl of Shrewsbury de clare to us that they do not hold such an oath to exclude them from 'tak:ng every legislative means within their power to weaken the Protestant insti tutions of their country. They do not conceive that it binds them as legislators at all ! They may seek:notwithstanding such oath, every leg 1 means of attaining the end which Popery has in view, and against which the obligation imposed was directed. What is this but to say that they do not take the oath "in the plain and ordinary sense of the words" in which it is expressed ? As legislators only it was imposed upon them, not as men. It was upon their admission to parliament that they were required to swear that they would not " exercise any privilege to which they were or might be entitled" to weaken the Protestant institutions of their country. They gave us this pledge as a quid pro quo—as the price of their admission. It was dictated in good faith. It was presumed to mean something. And if it does not bind them, as members of parliament, to abstain from legislative efforts—to abstain from " exercising their privileges" as members of the legislature—to disturb the settlement of the pro perty of the empire and the infliction of injury to wards the Protestant church, it means nothing—it is a mockery and worse than a mockery ! We ourselves certainly never anticipated much of benefit from the protective (?) clauses of the fatal act of 1819. We never hoped that good faith would be kept with us by the more ruthless of the Roma nist faction. But we did expect that we should witness somewhat more of honesty and sincerity from such men as Lord Shrewsbury; that upon them an oath so simple in its interpretation would be binding; and now, when we see its plain and distinct meaning cast to the winds by such men, we submit that it is something very like blasphemy to permit it to be administered at all. The impo sition of an oath which means nothing is only offen sive and wicked. By our publication of to-day, it will be seen that we are fast emerging from that notoriety which we have enjoyed, as a community, amongst whom com bustion is more frequent than amongst any other in the kingdom. A fortnight ago we remarked upon the fact, that within twenty.four hours no less than four fir: s had occurred in the metropolis, can-in“ a loss of property estimated to amount to - -€36,0e0; and to-day we have to notice the occurrence of five fires in London, invol‘ing the loss of, at the least, three times that amount, and which have also taken place within the space of forty-eight hours. Of course, we do not say that the metropolis is about to excel us in this species of performance. At any rate, however, the experience of the past few weeks may serve to convince insurance companies, and other people, that Liverpool is not the only loca lity in which cotton will burn, and spontaneous combustion arise from improper stowage of mixed merchandize. The experience of a ship on fire in our own docks yesterday, the cause of %Illicit can be attributed solely to spontaneous combustion, ought to convince the world that, however bad may be the reputation of this town, of its warehouse keepers, and other grossly libelled people, the same events will occur in whatever localities combustible articles are closely associated. THE MERCURY'S "FALSE WEIGHTS AND MEA sußEs."—The Mercury reiterates his attempted explana tion of his blunder by stating that he only spoke in irony, though if it were so it was done in so undefinable a manner that uo one could discover the wit of it but him -elf. calls us very ugly names, but in throwing them at us they only rebound upon himself. He•reminds us of Goldsmith's country schoolmaster— " Even though vanquished, be can argue still." STATE OF THE WEATHER.---Since our last we have had some of the hottest weather which has visited us this summer; and the crops in our neighbourhood have bene fitted surprisingly, the green tint of our corn having given place to a yellow, which promises an immediate har vest. Although we bad some very heavy rain on Monday night, we can trace no injury resulting. No corn has been laid by it; and, from all that we have been able to see of the crops, the prospect of an abundant yield of wheat was never better. Potatoes, if we may judge from the eye and the top herbage, are an excellent crop ; and the quality, so far as they have been got in hitherto, has not lately been excel:ed. Corn hat already been cut in several parts of this county and Cheshire. At present (Monday night) a shower is falling, but there is no ap pearance of continued rain. QUAKERS IN PARLIAMENT.-Our contemporaries, o f all shades of opinion, have been recently stating that the county of Durham has h a d th e un l uc k y preem inence of returning the first two quaker members to the House of Commons. The fact, however, is not so. The first qua ker member was undoubtedly Mr. Joseph Pease, who was returned fur South Durham. The second was Wm. Aldharn for the borough of Leeds—a Pease—his father having taken the name on inheriting a fortune. Aldham was second wrangler at Cambridge—the first qua ker ;Alio ever took such an honour. We observe that he sailed in the Britannia steamer on her last passage for America, and that it is his intention to make an extensive tour in the United States and Canada, which, in all pro bability, will occupy the interval between this time and the next session of parliament. ROUTES OF THE WEST INDIA STEAM PACKEFS.— The following cliarnzed tiniei of arrival and departure of these packets may be depended upon as correct. ROUTE OF FIRST PACKET. Arrives at Madeira in 6 days Ditto ditto flarbadoe3 in 20 days Stays 1 day. Ditto ditto Grenada, in 22 days from En!land, where steamers are ready to start for Trinidad, &c., Tobaeo, &e., St. Vincent, &c. The branch for Jamaica leaves Granada on the 23 flay. 1 . From Granada, arrives at Jacmel, in Hayti, in 251 days. Ditto ditto Jamaica, in 27 days, where She lands mails for St. Martha, Carthagena, and Chagres, conveyed by the company's schooner, which sails at 6 a.m., on the 28th day. The steamer stays two days at Jamaica, proceeds to the Havanna, where she arrives on the 321 days, stays 21 days (at this place she will meet the steamer returning to England from Mexico, to which she delivers any mails for Nassau, Bermuda, &c., also those for Hon duras. to the company's schooner which leaves on the 35th days, taking mails for Belize and return to the Havanna, by the 57it Is nays from the date of leaving England.) (On the 35th day the steamer leaves for Vera Cruz, arrives in 4l id days proceeds to Tamdico, and back to Vera Cruz, stays in gulf 15 days, and returns to the Havanna by the 65th days.) On the steamers meeting at Havanna, (the steamer which left Jamaica, having transferred her mails to the vessel which came up from Mexico,) the Mexican steamer proceeds to Nassau and Bermuda, at which place she arrives on the 45th days after mails leasing England. The answers to the letters received on the 27th day will be taken away by a steamer which will leave Kingston, Jamaica, on the 36th d y. calling at Jaemel, St. Juan, St. Thomas, and Bermuda, where she will find waiting the homeward bound steamer which arrived from Mexico. ready coaled. She will there proceed to Nassau, Havanna, and Jamaica, where she will arrive to receive mails for the next Ist packet. ROUTE OF SECOND PACKET. • Sails from Falmouth, 18th of every month. As in first Packet she proceeds to (;-enact, in 22 days. delivers the intereolonial mails, then proceeds to Jacmel in Hayti and Kingston, where she arrives in 27 days, stays one day, proceeds to St. Jago de Cuba, arrives there on the 19;h day, stays at St. Jago de Cuba 2 days, returns to Kingston, and leaves Kingston the 23rd day, with home ward bound mails calling at Jacmel, St. Juan in Porto- Rico, and St. Thomas, where she receives the Windward mails, and leaves St. Thomas on the 43rd day for England via F.val. P,X" The mails from Jamaica to Carthagena, &c., will very shortly be conveyed by steam ships, instead of by schooners as at present. FORGING SEAMEN'S NOTES.—At the Police court, on Friday, William Alexander, a lodging- house keeper, and a seaman named Tyson, a foreigner, were brought be fore Mr. Rushton, on a charge of having uttered two forged seamen's notes. William Topping, a shipwright, who resides in Gibraltar-rove, said that the prisoners (both of whom he had known for two or three years) came to him, and wanted to get two seamen's notes eashed for £B. Alexander said the man he had with him (Tyson) had engaged to go to Africa, as carpenter, by the ship Peruv.ati, Captain Watkin, who had signed the notes. Witness, who knew that Tyson had lodged with a person named Styles, asked whet her he had left his lodgings and gone to his (Alexander's), and the latter replied that he had, as lie could get nothing to eat at Styles's. Witness had seen the name of the shia and the captain (as he thought " Watkin") in the Telegraph, and not doubting but the notes were genuine, he advanced £5 upon them, stating that he would give the balance when the man went on board to his work. Some suspicion afterwards arose in his mind, and he went to Mr. Renton, whom Alexander had said was the agent who had shipped Tyson. Renton said lie had shipped no such man, nor had he anything to do with a vessel of that name. Alexander had also told the witness (Topping) that he had enquired of Captain Watkin whether the man was engaged to go with him, and that he found he was so and that all would be tight. Information was given to the police, and the prisoners were apprehended. It was also proved that the same notes, or similar ones, had been offered by the same parties for discount to Mr. Marks, clothier, Old li all- street, but he declined advancing on them at the time as he heard that the vessel would not go to sea for some time. Captain Theophilus " Gwatkin " (not G. Watkin), of the Peruvian, said that the signatures were neither his writing tier his name. Alexander had also told Topping that Tyson's tools and clothes, which were wan ted as security for the money advanced, were at his own (Alexander's) house ; whereas it was shown that they were deposited at the house of a woman named Shaw" for safety ".—Tyson, on being asked what he he had to say, stated that Styles, with whom he had lodged, had drawn out the notes; had told him that it would all be right, as he would himself be responsible; and that, he, the pri soner, being ignorant in such matters, was induced to accede. Alexander said the notes were given to him as genuine, by Tyson, that Tyson had been lodging at his house some days and owed him money, and that he (Alex ander) knew nothing of the forgery. Mr. Davenport who was for Aleiander, took an objection that the notes were not stamped. but Mr. Rushton overuled it, stating that it bad at the last assizes been decided that it was a forgery notwithstanding the want of the stamp. The prisoners were then committed for trial, but it was stated that bail would he taken for them, in themselves £lOO and two sureties in £so—for each. THE LIV E POOL ST A NDA ill/ NE W MUSI C.

TliE FUNDS, SATURDAY EVENING.—In the discount circles there appears to be an increased demand fur mo ney, which is considered a favourable symptom of an im proving state of trade. In several instances the brokers have refused to turn bills into cash, except at higher rates; but, generally speaking, an advance is not at present in sisted on. The immense stock of bullion in the Bank, nearly .E 12,000.000, is a sufficient check against any rapid rise in the rates of discount for the time being. As the autumn approaches, there is a strong belief, however, that greater activity will be shown in our various branches of commerce. The funds steadily advance, without any great increase of business, the English securities especially supporting a favourable appearance under the present sea sonable weather for the harvest. The last prices of Con suls to-day for money and the account were 911 to 1; Bank Stock, 182 to 4; India Stock, 264 to 265; Exche quer Bills, 584. to 60s. premium ; Three per Cent. Re duced, 95} to /; Three-and-a-Half per Cents., 1021 to 1; Long Annuities, 121; and New Three-and-a-Half per Cents., 1011 to 102. In the foreign market there is little alteration to notice in quotations. As far as business is concerned, it continues on a very limited scale. Spanish Actives maintain 19 to 1 ; the Three per Cents., 26/ to i; Dutch Two-and-a-Halt per Cents., 531 to 1; Mexican, 361 to 37/ ; the Deferred, 101 to 1; Peruvian, 20 to 21 ; Powiguese Converted, 4U to ; Colombian, 251; Chi- Han, 98 to 100; Brazilian, 72 to 73; Buenos Ayres, 26 tQ 27 ; Belgian, 104 to 105 ; and Danish, 86 to 87. ALARMING FIRE IN A VESSEL IN DOCK. Yesterday forenoon, about half-past ten o'clock, the crew of a bligantine called the " Etnerald," Captain Kroban—which was lying at the north end of Canning theck, and was ready fur sea—discovered, from the smoke that issued from the foreca-tle, below decks, that com bustion was going on among-t the cargo in the h„ld. They used every exertion for some time to put it out, but finding their efforts unava line, they called the policeman whn was at hand, anti w ho immediately ran off to the fire station, and gave the alarm, at about half-past eleven o'clock. Two engines immediately came up, and four others were soon after on the ground, with a strong body of firemen. The fore-hatch had then been got off, and the smoke below was of so suffocating a nature, that it could scarcely be emcountered, and the precise spot where the fire was going on, could not he ascertained. Mr. Hewett, superintendent of the fire-police, and several of his men, as well as some of the crew of the vessel, how ever, ven.ured down, and began to extract the cargo (which was stowed up to the deck) ; and the hose front two of the best engines (Nos. 1 and 5) were i troduced, and played with, eventually, good effect. Great exertions were made, every owe doing his utmost—Mr. Hewitt being of opinion that unless the flames (which they could not see for the smoke) were subdued in a short time, the fire would become uuemitronlable. The vessel had on board about 123 casks of oil, a quan tity of soft soap, twelve tolls of raga, old ropes, and cot ton waste, and a considerable weight of britostone,—the whole so injudiciously stowed together, that there can be little doubt but that sponianeous combustion had resulted from some of the oil coming in contact, by leakage or otherwise, with the rags and waste. The vessel, i.hich was from Cork, had discharged and afterwards loaded in the Salthouse Dock, and had afterwards been hauled into the Canning Dock, on Saturday last, preparatory to going to sea so soot as she had sufficient water. She drew twelve feet, and was to have gone into the river with last night's tide. At the time she was found to be on fire. there was fourteen feet of water on the Canning Dark sill, arid the dock master being sent for, she was immedi ately hauled into the gut, at the bridge, (which was thrown bark.) so that she might be clear of the shipping in the dock, and be then skuttled—with two fret to sink—had that been found requisite. Happily the exertions of those on board, and on shore, rendered this dernier resort un necessary. gp After toiling for some time in the hold, and getting a quantity of casks, bags of rags, &c., out of it, Mr. Hewitt, guided by the colour of the smoke, at length hit the right point upon which to play, and in alP , ut an hour all further apprehension of the oil igniting was overcome. The fire was found to have commenced near the keel. amongst the rags and waste; and such had been its pro gies4, that several of the casks iS oil were so scorched and charred that they fell to pieces. the contents running down amongst the water that was thrown in. Some of the old ropes were also completely reduced to tinder, and a portion of the foremast, under deck, about four feet in length, was charred, though not to any great depth. A quantity of the soft soap also ran out of the packages, trom the action of the heat, in the form of jelly. One of the policemen on duty was rendered so insen sible by the suffocating smoke in the hold, that when brought on deck, he feil down, and appeared to be all but gone. He afterwards so far recovered, that he assisted in hoisting up the goods. From what we can learn, about ten large casks of oil were lost, also some of the soft soap, and the cargo generally has, of course, been damaged. MR. JAMES WARD'S PAINTINGS.—SeveraI of the splendid paintings contributed by Mr. Ward to the late Polytechnic exhibition at the Collegiate are, we see, ad vertised for sale. They are all by first-rate masters, and worthy the inspection of connoisseurs. ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE .—The dramatic corps of this theatre are now advertiz;ng their benefits, and we learn that the whole of the profits from their previi.us perform ances have been applied to forwarding temperance prin ciples. SUTTO.N, THE GREAT MAGICIAN.-Mr. Sutton, the wonderfully dexterous practicer of optical illusions, who was eminently successful here a few years back, is again about to open -the Liver Theatre, when several great no velties will be produced. SWEEP FOR THE ST. LEGER.—It will be seen by an advertisement in another column that Nlr. WWitman's sweep for this great contest closes on Wednesday next. A few names are yet wanting, but the satisfaction the worthy host has hitherto given in affairs of this kind will, we doubt not, insure a speedy completion of the list. THEFT BY A SERVANT GlRL.—Ellen Burns, a ser vant girl, was yesterday committed for trial at the ses sions, on a charge of stealing a quantity of wearing ap parel, a blanket, and other articles from the house of her mistress, and worth about 20s. She had pledged the pro perty, and when detected prayed to be forgiven, and she would tell all. Commurmirtr.—An ill-looking young man, named Edward Ray, was yesterday placed before Mr. Rushton, on a charge of being found concealed in the back yard of the house of Mr. Quilliams, Great Crosshall-etreet, early on Sunday morning. While he was in the dock, evideoce was adduced that on the previous Thursday he had been try•ng a number of the doors in Westmoreland-street with an evil intent, and as be was known to be a bad cha racter, he was committed to gaol for three months. STEALING SUGAR.—A boy named George Grice was yesterday charged at the Police-court with stealing a large loaf of sugar, weighing 41 lb. Police-officer Samuel Damn saw the prisoner on Saturday carrying the sugar, and questioned him respecting it. His answers were contra. dictory, and he took him to two different places, saying first he had got it at the one and then at the other, which was false. It was afterwards found that he had stolen it from the shop of Mr. George Scott, No. 6, Fox-street. It was worth about 30s. Committed for It ial. THEFT IN A SHOP.—Two young women, Ann Finnan and Elizabeth Jones, were yesterday placed at the bar of the Pol ce-court, on a charge of stealing in the shop of Mr. John Rodgers, linen draper arid silk mercer, 141, St. James's -street. On Saturday night the prisoners went into the shop and priced several articles, of which they bought small quantities. The shoriman turned his back to hand something else down, and on returning to the counter missed a piece of silk, and gave information to his employer, who had them detained by two police officers. The prisoner Finnan dropped a piece of coloured silk, and on Jones another piece was found. One piece contained 8i yards, worth 4s. a plod; the other 21 yards, worth 2s. 4d. a yard. The pri;orrer s, who said nothing in defence, were committed for trial. ROBBFRY OF PLATR.—On Saturday, a man named Thomas Mason was brought before Mr. Rushton, at the Police -court, on a charge of having carried off three silver tea-spoons arid three silver forks from the house of Mr. John Caton Thompson. in Bootle. It appeared from the evidence of one of the female servants, that the prisoner had occasionally been at the house in the way of his trade, and was there on T.gursday last, fixing up a blind on the window of the school-room. He afterwards went down stairs to see the cook, and asked the witness if lie might take a bit of toast which was on a tray it the butler's pantry, on which the witness had seen the missing articles half an hour before. She replied that he might, and went into the pantry and took the toast. Some time elapsed before the articles were missed, but she was of opinion that no one else could bave taken them. It appeared, however, that there was another person about that day on the premises, and there were other circumstances of doubt, so that the prisoner was discharged. The property has not been recovered. THE DUMB RESTORED.—On Saturday last, a person named Michael Mickey was brought up at the Birken head police-court, on a charge of stealing a wedding rill , . the property of Mrs. Lodge. The prisoner pretended to be deaf and dumb, but on seeing one of the constables who had previously known him, he suddenly recovered his speech, and denied the charge. The evidence was then heard, when it appeared front the statement of Mr s . Lodge that, on Friday afternoon, the prisoner called on her and told her, by motions, that she had had two dresses stolen, which he would put her in the way of recovering if she would pay him ss. Having lost the dresses as told her by the prisoner, she bargained with him to have her fortune told for 2s 6d. The prisoner then desired her to lend hint her wedding ring " to do a charm with," which she did. lie then told her to procure him a piece of cord, and she left the room for the purpose. On her return, lie showed a piece of paper in which he said he had wrapped the ring, and told tier to tie a certain number of knots on the string, and let it remain for twelve hours. However, woman's curiosity could not contain so long, for the pri• soner had scarcely left the house before she opened the parcel, when she found the prisoner had exchanged her gold ring for a brass one, so that she found herself minus her wedding ring and half a crown. Information was immediately given to the police, and the prisoner was ap prehended when about to take his departure by the boat for Liverpool. Mr. Case (the magistrate), after remark ing on the foolish conduct of the complainant in allowing herself to he so easily imposed upon, committed the pri soner to three months' hard labour in the house of correction. A YOUNG LADY COMMITTED ON A CHARGE OF STEALING HER OWN HORSE !—Yesterday week, a young lady, and a man named Argent, were brought before the magistrates at the Town-hall, Birkenhead, on a charge of forcibly taking away and possessing themselves of a horse, to which it was alleged they h d no right or title under the circumstances. A man named Joseph Corf, a labourer residing at Bidston, said that on the 24th of March the lady brought a horse to him to keep for a few weeks, which lie received and kept from that time to the 9th instant. On that day six men came, apparently sailors, to his place, and the prisoner Argent demanded the horse, in the name of s o me one — not t h e l ady. He refused, saying that he would not give it up to him or to her either, unless its keep was settled for. Argent then demanded, in the Queen's name, that it should be loosed, he pretending to be a constable (which the others second ed), and sayin g th a t lie had been sent by M r . C ase, t h e magistrate. A scuffle ensued, on the witness endeavour to secure the horse in an outbuilding. The female prisoner at length came up, and, doffing shawl and bon net, flew at the witness with all her might, striking him several times. Three of the men, thus encouraged, got hien down, while another mounted the horse, and they all went off together. Argent had hold of the halter. Wit ness added, that about a month ago he delivered a bill for the keep of the horse, at 45. a week, and also for the keep of some hens and geese, the former at 2d. and the latter at Gd. a week. The lady said she had not been guilty of any felony, and it was stated on her behalf by Mr. Wardle that, having no use for the horse and the fowls at the time, she merely agreed to allow him to keep them, he having liberty to work the horse, and to have the eggs of the others, which were fed on the common. The prisoners Were, however, committed, with leave to find bail. The trial, it is said, will take place at Knutsford, and will be productive of some food for amusement when the details are brought out. The bail required was not heavy, EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATIONS IN LONDON AND LOSS OF LIFE. (From Yesterday's London Papers.) On Saturday morning, Lonion was visited by four dis astrous confl-igrations. Two burst forth almost simulta neously in Tooley-street, near London-bridge, and in Fetter-lane, Fleet -street, the former being attended with au enormous sacrifice of property in the total destruction of Topping's Wharf, Sr. Olave's Church, Watson's tele graph station, several warehouses and vessels moored alongside the wharf, and the latter resulting in a most deplorable loss of bunion life. The fire near London-bridge was observed, first of all, at the rear of the warehouses and stores belonging to N9e 6 srs. Ward and Co., oil and colour merchants. These - . premises extended between Upper and Lower Topping's Wharf to the edge of the river. The fire in a few mo ments gained a most awful ascendancy, and the shipping was for some time in great danger; but as the tide was flowinT, all the vessels were cot out of danger, with the exception of two slightly injured, end one which w is con sumed to the water's edge. Whilst the firemen were protecting the shipping, however, the fire spread to both Upper and Lower Topping's Wharf, the property of Messrs. Scovell. These premises almost surrounded Messrs. Ward and Co.'s warehouses, and the contigra tion immediately became terrific, whilst every now and then loud explosions were heard to proceed from the cel lars under Ward's warehouses, which subsequently turned out to be barrels of oil and turpentine bursting. It was soon found that WatsoWs telegraph t ewer, which stood between Mr. Ward's premises and Lower Topping's Wharf, had taken fire, and that the devouring element wls making rapid progress in the destruction of St. Olave's Church. The telegraph tower was an object of great attention during the progress of the fire, owing to its peculiar con struction and great elevation above all the surrounding premises, being nearly 150 fret in height. It was for merly used as a shot factory, but recently it has been pur chased by Messrs. Watson, of Cornhill, who had used it as a telegraph s.stion for the communication of intelli gence from the Downs and other parts of the coast. For nearly an hour, though it was situate in the very centre of danger, singular to state, it withstood the ravages of the fire. At last, however, about half-past two o'clock, dense volumes of smoke were seen issuing from al the windows from the basement to the summit. In an instant alino7t the whole of the building burst into a vivid mass of flame, which shot above the burning wharfand premises to a considerable height. The tower being composed of wood it continued hurtling furiously for an extraordinary length of time; the floating engine of the brigade, the ope rations of %hid' excited considerable praise, attempted to play upon it, but the intense mass of tire on the wharf rendered it impossible to subdue the flames. while it was equally impracticable for the land engines to force water up to its summit. About half-past three o'clock the whole of the tower fell with a tremendous crash to the ground, sending forth a most terrific cloud of smoke. Immediately on St. Olave's Church being observed to be in danger, seven engines were brought to play on to that par' of the lower Topping's wharf which adjoined the tower of the church. The fire, however, still raged on with terrific fury, and in the course of five minutes it had gained the tower, and forced the brigademen from their stations on the roof. This, as may be readily supposed, increased the consternation in the neighbourhood to a most painful extent, and loud cries were beard from dif ferent parts of the multitude, " For God's sake, save the church, save the church !" Al as ! i t was beyond human power to do so, for within a quarter of an hour the roof and the ceiling, which was considered, with the exception of that of St. Stephen's. Wallbrook. to he one of the most beautiful works of art to be found in the metropolis, was in ruins. The deeds, communion plate, &c., were, with great exertion, saved. The steeple before then was en veloped in flames, and in the subsequent quarter of an hour the beautiful peal of hells fell from the belfry, the greater part of them having been melted by the intense body of fire which surrounded them whilst they were hanging. Within the hour the destruction of St. Nave's Church was complete, nothing remaining but the miter walls and steeple, the interior being completely gutted. The loss occasioned by the destruction of the church is stated to be at least X 12,000. It appears that the sacred edifice was built in the year 1725. and was dedicated to St. Ohre, Hart-street. The living is at the disposal of the Crown, and was founded 400 years ago. The church could accommodate 2.000 persons, and was insured in the Pliceitix Fire-office for £7,000. _ • The conflagration was finally 'arrested at seven o'clock, but the engines continued playing the whole of Sunday. The total loss is reported to exceed £70,000, of which only a portion is insured. A second confla2ration took place in the extensive rope and twine warehouse of Mr. Seymour, carrying on busi ness at 24, Pudding-lane, Thames-street. The damage done is considerable. Whilst the fire was raging in Tooley-street, a considera ble piece of ignited ►imber was seen to fall into the chim ney of Mr. Jones, grocer, 268, 1 - ligh-street, and the shop was soon after discovered on fire. Much damage was done to the stock and shop. The fourth fire, which, we regret to state, has been at tended by the loss of no less than five human lives, oe. curred about half-past three o'clock on Saturday morning on the premises of Mr. William Newberry, a practical chynnist, No. 60, on the west side of Fetter-lane, Fleet street. The I,wer part of the premises was filled with chemical appuratmla of various dr , criprlona, and a large stock of combustibles, whilst the upper part was rented by a gentleman and his wife, of the name of Rose. It appears that Mr. Newberry came home at a late hour, and that shortly after his arrival a tremendous explosion, which seemed to shake the foundation of the adjoining houses, was heard. Several neighbours and a policeman hastening to the spot whence the sound proceeded, dis covered the house in flames, the shop front blown to atoms, and Mr. Newberry lying on the ground insensible, with no apparel on but his night dress: They had scarcely raised him when a piercing shriek was heard from the apartments above, and on looking tip thay saw a gentle man with a wooden leg endeavouring to get out of the third-floor window. His intention evidently was to drop from the sill, but as the flames neared him his courage failed, and he retired into the apartment, doubtless to seek flight by another quarter, and in this he was foiled, for in another instant he reappeared at the window, and, uttering a cry of despair, precipitated himself headlong into the street. It was thought that the fall had killed him, for he exhibited no signs of life, and he and his un fortunate landlord were removed on shutters to the hos pital, but the latter expired in great agony shortly after his admission, and the former, who proved to be Mr. Rose, has since died. It also appears that the sisters of Mrs. Rose, two maiden ladies of the name of M'Crendle, had slept at the house that night, and before any assist ance could be rendered them they had perished, the dense body of fire and flame succeeding the explosion render ing any attempt of their friends and neighbours to save them abortive. The house presented a mere wreck, and some idea of the tremendous force with which the combustible matter operated may be imagined from the fart that a chest of drawers contained in the house was carried clear through the wall at the back of the house to the extremity of Bartlett's-buildings, a distance of fifty yards, forcing it into a dairy, against which it struck. Yesterday (Monday) morning, at half-past two o'clock another extensive fire broke out in an unoccupied man sion, No. 16, Cambridge-square, Edgeware-road. In the short space of ten minutes the entire building from the basement to the roof was one body of fire, which shot into the air a considerable height, and causing it to be seen from nearly every part of London. By four o'clock the fire was got under, but the adjoining mansion, occu pied by Mr. Stephenson, the eminent engineer, was seriously injured. COMMITMENT.—On Saturday, at tl.e Police-court, two young men, before well-known to the police, were com mitted for trial at the sessions for stealing money to the amount of 196., from the house of Richard Ellis, a market constable. One of them opened the door, without knock ing, and took the money from the window. The other stood at the bottom of the entry, and was afterwards seen with some of it, which he put under his jacket and made off, dropping a sixpence, which he did not wait to pick up. The principal evidence was given by two little girls. A key and a bad sixpence was found upon one of them, but none of the other money was recovered. CASE OF NUISANCE.—THE CORPORATION V. THE PARISH.—At the Police-court, on Saturday, a complaint (on information) was preferred against Mr. Pool, the parish contractor for the street manure, for leaving a quantity of night soil, &c. in Back Hope-street, contrary to the local act. The complainants were Mr. May and Mr. Knipe, inhabitants of liope-street, who stated that the deposit in the street named was a nuisance to the neighbourhood. Mr. Bushell, councillor for the ward, (and also a member of the committee for regulating such matters,) said he had visited the spot, and the com plaint was certainly well grounded. An inspector of po lice deposed to the same effect. Mr. Capes Ashlin ap peared on behalf of the parish, and contended that the de fendant was not liable, inasmuch as the spot named was that appointed by the Council for such deposits. Mr. Rushton, however, showed, by reference to the act, that no rubbish or offensive matter could be legally laid down withi❑ one hundred yards of any dwelling-liou-e, wi , the permission of the occupants ; and he accordingly fined Mr. Pool 40s. and costs for the offence. Foc.—On Friday evening, about five o'clock, a fog began to gather on this town and ❑eighbourhood, which increased in density till towards nine o'clock, after which it gradually dispersed, and the night became fine and clear. No accidents that we have heard of occurred ; but between eight and nine o'clock the mist on the river became so thick and perplexing as to cause considerable confusion on board the steam. boats and other vessels, and to pro duce considerable alarm to some and amusement to others on board of them. Speaking trumpets, horns, bells, &c. were put into requisition to avoid collision, and a large gong, by way of bass-drum, was lustily thumped on board of the floating stage—the whole, commingled with shouts, cries, and mandates, forming a babel of sounds anything but harmonious. Some of the river steamers ceased to run after seven o'clock, and several of those that ven tured a trip were ludicrously seen steering in the opposite direction from their intended ferries. The fog was, it would appear, still more dense (in the afternoon as well as the evening) in the outward channels. The Flambeau steam-boat, from Bangor, was behind her time. At two o'clock she was passed, having slackened her steam, by as arrived kv k i : eshw r :da i Erin-,t: aground,hionaei-onbteßri a oh g h,y l oc i ol sbect steamer, euvkaert : mg:(en,rthd euwahapt theall pisosa N rfoof e.bd:Wae probably, ya . iTyy L he,d i dea g : h roEss t ooa . rngaist, iii kh p leale . ondu S tntr i ojeeet. shipping, thdrawing SPAIN. • 0 tip Paris papers 0 14. of Tuesday : The following relezraphic despatch is published 1 " Bayonne, Alta:100, manifesto, Duke of Vic has addressed to Ibtee tr. dated July 30. oil board the Befitss,. an ,ff; sali . e ; He declares that he has never perjuredil un-; Is, 0 , d vi iies haying violated the constitution ; It's.
