DEPOT, FORT VANCOUVER, OREGON OR COLUMBIA RIVER, NORTH AMERICA E unprecedented patronage bestowed on this Com pany during their establishment in Liverpool, induces the Managers, in returning to the public their grateful thanks, to announce that they have now SELECTED FROM THEIR DEPOSITORY A CHOICE AND VARIED 0 F STOCK FURS, amongst which will be found the many varieties for which the Columbia River, one of the most magnificent streams in America, is so justly and so universally celebrated,—a stock that for superiority of quality and lowness of prices induces them to anticipate in future the same liberal re ward that past energies have so thankfully secured. The mere title of the " Columbia Fur Company" carries with it no more weight than that of any other company • but the immense resources of this gigantic stream, die length of which is 1560 miles, connecting by its own waters, or immediate branches, the vast districts of ASTORIA, COLO, CANOE CAMP, THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS, FL AT BROW ; CH IPPEW AY, FEMBU NCO, And the principal Fur Climates, as well as the Lakes, and the ready transit for skins procured by the inhabitants, who, as well as the native India tribes, principally gain their subsistence by capturing fur-producing animals, which are disposed of to the many emissaries of the Com pany at rates that enable these Agents to offer FURS AT PRICES THAT CANNOT BE EQUALLED (WHEN QUALITY IS CONSULTED,) BY ANY OTHER HOUSE IN THE KINGDOM. In proof of the vast resources of the Oregon or Colum bia River, and the consequent position of this Company, the Managers respectfully refer to the able article by Sidney Hall, Esq., in the able introduction to " Black's General Atlas," in which it is asserted as the most dis tinguished characteristic of the River and Vicinity, that the varieties, all of which surpass in quality those of every other American stream, being close and silky in the pile, are more numerous and durable. As no Stock of made-up Furs is kept during the Sum mer, it must be obvious to the public that their made-up Furs are ali of the LATEST STYLES OF FASHION Observe the number, BOLD-STREET— London workmen are employed to execute all alterations LAST NIGHT'S MAIL. MARK LANE CORN MARKET-YESTERDAY The supply of Wheat at this morning's market from Kent, Essex, and Suffolk was moderate, but the flour trade being dull, mi lers evinced a great disinclination to purchase, excepting at a decline of ls per qr., in consequence of which a great part remained unsold towards the close. Free foreign is unaltered in value bonded is held firmly at late prices, but little business was done in it ; Polish Odessa afloat continued to ha sought after and is difficult to obtain, there being few sel!ers. Fihe malting barley must be quoted is dearer, and grinding meets a ready sale at a similar ad vance. Beans and a hite peas fully maintain the rates of this day se'nnight, maple and dun are is dearer. The market is very bare of oats free met a brisk sale at 25.. and bonded at 2s and 3s above the rates of last Monday SMITHFIELD MARKET-YESTERDAY From our own grazing districts, the arrivals of Beasts fresh up this morning were very extensive, the time of year consider ed, and, on the whole, of improved quality. The attendance of buyers being numerous, the primest Scots, Devons, Herefords, runts, &c. co•:,manded a very steady sale, at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday last. The middling and inferior breeds were not quite so active as on that day ; nevertheless , previous rates were well supported, and a good clearance was effected. _ The numbers of Sheep were again small, owing to which the Mutton trade was decidedly brisk, and the quotations had, in some instances, an upward tendency. The demand for Veal was active, and the rates , ae. - e quite 4d per sibs. higher than on this day se'unight. Although we have a full average supply of pigs on offer, the sale for them was firm, aad the late advance in the quotations was well supported. PRICES OF STOCKS, &C.-YESTERDAY The market for the English securities has been unsettled again to-day, and has, up to the present hour, not rallied to the im proved rates of Saturday afternoon. Some have imagined that the Bank of England returns bore an unfavourable construction, but really there is not the slightest ground for such an assump tion, especially when we find the private deposits increasing so much. Consols for Money have been 96a to 94, and at one time were 97. Fcr Account, 97i and 96Z- have been the rates current. Exchequer Bills are marked 39s to 41s, and India Bonds 56s to 52s premium. These are the previous quotations. Bank Stock Iv.s been fiat at 2usi, and South Sea Stock 1074. The New 31 per Cents. have realised 98i to 97k, and th?. 3 per Cents. 954 to 96. PRICE OF SHARES.-YESTERDAY The share market has bee❑ fluctuating, and so we may ex pect it to be for some few days, until the weak holders have got out, and their scrip is taken up by firmer parties. Such people, without either nerves or surplus cash, are best out of raiiway investments, which they have no more right to take up than they would have to buy consols. That the good and bad schemes alike suffer from the rc.action is natural enough, where people become alarm 2d without pro, erly knowing what about, and as purifying the market of bad schemes, no one will regret the panic.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.—On Saturday evening a fire broke out in the farm-yard at Northflee:, Green, near Gravesend, by which the barns, stables, and other out offices, together with four large stacks of wheat, and a quantity of wheat, partly thrashed and partly unthrashed, which had been in the barn in which the fire originated, were totally consumed. The damage is estimated at £2OOO, but the property was insured. On Sunday morn ing, at half-past five, a fire broke out at the Black Horse, High•street, Gr vesend, by which six houses in High st reet, and three in the rear, were totally destroyed. Two persons were badly burnt, and one man (in the employ ment of Mr. Wombwell) is supposed to have perished. The loss is about £lO,OOO. A GREAT Ram—The greatest race the world ever saw is, while we write, " coming off," and all mercantile Europe, in anxious expectation, is awaiting the issue. The abettors and originators of the race are the Austrian and French Go zernments ' • the latter with its long-orga nized and highly-perfected system of conveyance at its disposal, the Austrian Government with no other reliance than on the intrepid, enterprising, and enduring Waghorn, whose name history will ever associate with the opening and improvement of the communications with India. Long distant will the racers be from each other in their course, though they will start and terminate in one point. Bombay is to be the place of departure, and London that of arrival. From Bombay to Alexandria both will ba in juxtaposition, their speed being regulated by circum stances beyond their control. The true start will be from Alexandria; Waghorn taking his course from that port to Trieste, and the carriers of the French mail pursuing their usual route to Marseilles. One will proceed through Germany to Ostend, the other through France to Calais, thence bending their course both to Dover, and by rail road to London. The time for leaving Bombay was to be the Ist instant, and the appearance of one or other of the contending racers may be daily, perhaps hourly, looked for. - The arrival of a seasonable sellection of woollen goods is announced in our paper of . to -day, by Mr. O'Hanlon, to whose advertizement we direct the attention of pur chasers.

Ebt Eibtrpoot otalilJarb. TUESDAY MORNING, OCT. 28, 1345 Our contemporary of the London Times appears rather disposed to create a war panic out of the re cent news from China by the last East India mail ; and in so doing, uses language towards a friendly foreign power, which is certainly very unseemly in its tone, coming as it does from the leading journal of Europe. The ground upon which he proceeds is an intimation from his private correspondent, that the Island of Hong Kong, in exchange for which we gave up, under the provisions of the Pottinger treaty, our first conquest, Chusan, has proved a use less acquisition, unfit for trading operations, and so unhealthy as to be almost a charnel house for the troops stationed there, one-third of whom are car ried off yearly. (By the bye, we may state hers, in reference to the alleged unfitness of Hong Kong for trading operations, that the mail just arrived brought the news that, between the departure of last mail and that of the previous one, the number of vessels belonging to Liverpool alone, arrived at and sailed from that port, was twenty-one--an increase upon our past trading operations.) In the meantime, that French diplomatists are in• triguing for the possession of Chusan, as soon as the British give up possession of it next year, their object being to out-general us in our re lations with China. Such an acquisition, on the part of France, he argues, would surely, and almost necessarily, bring us into a hostile collision both with China and with France, upon the result of which, after some disparaging and taunting remarks upon the past want of success of that power in her colonization projects, he expresses himself in the following irritating terms : . . . . " FrariCe has sent out many embassies, many missions, many colonies, many expeditions. Where are the results ? Scan the terrestrial globe, turn it round and round, trace the shores, scan the oceans. Scarce one result is left. Let France send her frigates and war steamers. Let her occupy Chusan with 20,000 men. Let her spend millions in fortifications, in posts, in cordons, and enceintes. Bootless and ridiculous inhumanity ! To little purpose have you so cruelly disfigured the bosom of that peaceful sea! Something unpleasant happens at home ;—our re lations are unhappily disturbed, and Chusan is ours. " It is in vain for you to establish outposts fourteen thousand miles from your European citadel. We shall carry on the war from India, as we did before. What is your point d' appui, what your resting-place between Cherbourg and Chusan ? Sic vos non vobis. We shall quietly occupy your forts, your harbours, your palaces, your theatres, your hotels. We can afford to be just, and leave China to deal with Chusan as her own discre tion and good taste may suggest." Most certainly we should ourselves be sorry to see Chusan in the posses ion of the French, and, except for some undefined and unaccountable pur pose of annoyance, we can see no interest which she can have in such an acquisition. A commerce with China, large enough to require a station for its pro tection, she has not, and, from her position and the nature of her wants and her exports, she never can have. The British nation also would view the transfer of Chusan to French occupation with no pleasura ble feelings; and remembering the fact, that in our last collision with her, it was in the East that the Emperor Napoleon calculated upon inflicting upon us the most telling blow, might be provoked to re sent such transfer. But it was surely possible to express the distaste with which the acquisition of Chusan by France would be received, without in dulging in language only calculated to bring upon us, before the necessity for it arrives, the asperity of her press, and to stir up again amongst her impa tient and irritable people, the intermittent war fever to which they are so liable. If, as 'I he Times says, " we can afford to be just, and leave China to deal with Chusan as her own discretion and good taste may suggest," we can surely as well afford to he civil to both China and France, pending the exercise of that discretion and goad taste. Has the railway panic showed symptoms of turning out a failure, that the Times so eagerly endeavours to bolster it up with a war panic ? With one suggestion of the letter, upon which our contemporary founds this irritating tirade, we perfectly agree. Hong Kong, it seems, is useless, or worse. Three of the other ports acquired by us, under the provisions of the Pottinger treaty, viz., Amoy, Foo-choo-Foo, and Ningpo, are worthless as places of trade, more of which is carried on by the British at Chusan in a month than in those three places in a year. The climate moreover of the lat ter place, originally thought unhealthy, is now known to be most salubrious. Under these circum stances an able diplomatist ought to be sent out to China to negotiate with the Emperor for the conti nued occupation of Chusan, and to remove, by all means in his power short of the sacrifice of honour, anything which may bring about the interruption of our present amicable relations with a people, from whose commerce we have derived and are deriving such large advantages. The rumours of dissensions in the cabinet have become so rife that we are almost compelled to be lieve that there is some truth in them, although we cannot bring ourselves to think that any hesitation of the Duke of Wellington, as to the mode in which the present corn-law is to be dealt with, can be their cause. In a case of difficulty such as that into which we are about to he thrown by the failure of the potatoe crop and the deficient yield and qua lity of our wheats, the Duke of Wellington is not the man to hesitate in cutting the Gordian knot. The course to be taken by government in the en suing session upon that vital question we intimated our conviction last week, when remarking upon a passage of Lord Ashley's letter to his constituents, is already settled ; and our opinion is confirmed by a more recent admission of the fact by one of the ablest advocates of the agricultural interest, Mr. Bickham Escott ; and from the lips of that gentle man we are glad to learn that the agriculturists are prepared to meet the difficulties of their position with stout hearts and a determination to surmount them. " I think," said Mr. Escott, at an Agricultural dinner on Wednesday last, " the change is inevitable, but I do not despond for the result. (Cheers.) It is true, things might have been better if we could have foreseen all that has happened. Late last session I gave notice for the ad mission of Indian corn (the very best food for stock), free of duty. Oh, if that measure could have been carried last session, what a blessing would it have been for the country ! (' Hear,' and ' No.') I hear some gentlemen dispute that opinion. Now, consider for a moment. We import the fat beast and give the Dutch grazier the pro fit, and the Dutch farmer the manure. Why on earth should we not import the food which is to fatten our own (hundreds were starving last March and April), and keep to ourselves the profit of the grazier, and nourish our own crops with the increased manure ? (Loud cheers, and cries of "Ilat's common sense.') Common sense, says some gentleman; yes, it is, indeed, common sense; and that is what the Secretary of State has said of the wise course in which we are proceeding. Lord Ashley is, in deed, right on one point ; when the leading men of all parties are agreed to support common sense, it must be very uncommon nonsense that can prevail against them. (Laughter and cheers.) I have thought it right to speak openly. I have wondered how it is that at so many of these dinners so little or nothing is said of the great ques tion. One recommends better farming, another advises the granting of leases, but both forget the facts that better farming requires capital and security (great cheering), and the other fact, that the security of leases can never be ge nerally obtained while there is uncertainty about these laws of importation. (Cheers.) Let us all, then, endea vour to meet the times, not by concealing the truth, but by preparing for its inevitable conclusions ; it will be thus that temporary difficulties will be surmounted, as they have been surmounted before, by the kindness and consi deration of some, by the energy and unfettered enterprise of others, and for myself, I feel very grateful that you, to whom I owe no public allegiance, and have no concessions to make or votes to regret, have allowed me to express to men, whom I respect, something of my own convictions on the great public question of the day. The whole company then rose and cheered tumultu ously for some minutes." There is honesty in the heart of England—ho nesty in the breasts of the lords and tillers of her soil—when she can exhibit the proud spectacle of men thus throwing down their long-cherished pre judices and fears, at the call of their country's ne cessity. The selfish leaguer, who sought, for his own interest alone, the adoption of the policy now resolved upon, and submitted to unrepiningly by those upon whose interests it will most immediately press, can surely now afford to be charitable, when speaking of the motives of such men. They may not have foreseen the emergency to which the country was destined to be hurried, or, at least, the time at which it was to arrive. We question if the league itself did. They have, however, evinced their readiness to bow to that which the public weal has now, in their opinion, demanded of them. We shall see if the manufacturing interests, represented by that body, will so cheerfully make the same sub mission. It must be made. If the farmer supplies the workers at the loom and the spindle with cheap food, the farmer and the farm-labourer must have cheap clothing. We cannot, with these facts in view, conceive that it is anything connected with the corn-laws which has created the alleged disagreements in the cabi net—say, rather, is it not that " chief difficulty" of Sir Robert Peel's administration—the policy to be pursued towards Ireland ? Time will tell. In our last publication, we were the first to an nounce to the public the distressing fact, that a serious collision had taken place between the natives of New Zealand and the British forces; in which, although one native chief had been taken prisoner, the ultimate issue had been anything but satisfac tory, or calculated to sustain the prestige of our power as a nation in the eyes of the New Zealand tribes. We believe that more recent dates, which have since been received in London, fully confirm the information which we ourselves communicated, although we have not their details before us, further than a representation, contained in the Auckland Times of the 24th of May—our latest dates were to the 17th—that the capture of the chief, Pomare, had not been effected in a way quite consonant with British notions of honour. "He is said," reports our contemporary, " to have - been desired to give an interview to Colonel Hulme, upon which he was surrounded and detained by the troops." We cannot consider such a procedure one of which an Englishman ought to be proud, and, for the cre dit of the British army, we trust it is untrue ; it is one, however, which is too much in character with the lawless manner with which the country in which it occurred was originally settled by the New Zealand Company, without the authority of the British crown being first established there, and to avert the consequences of which the treaty of Waitangai was negociated, by which such authority was fully re cognised by the native chiefs. That even this step, however, was not of itself sufficient to meet the dif ficulties certain to arise, from the grasping propen sities of the settlers on the one hand, and the awa kened jealousies of the natives on the other, was predicted by many who had watched the past course of British colonization ; and it was urged from time to time on the Colonial-office to take effective mea sures for the establishment in the islands of a settled form of civil government, protected by a powerful military force, as the only means by which the dis asters likely to arise to the emigrants themselves, by the existence of a lawless state of society, could be averted. To carry out these sound views has been the policy of the present governor and the Colonial office ; and the obstinacy with which their plans have been opposed, and the provisions of the Wai tangai treaty attempted to be broken in their deal ings with the natives, by the New Zealand Company and their settlers, ought to have warned the authori ties at home of the necessity of a stronger force than that at present in New Zealand to repress the dis turbances which for some time have been antici pated, and were distinctly predicted, in his admirable speech on Mr. C. Buller's motion, by the honourable and gallant member for Liverpool, Sir H. Douglas : " The honourable and learned member for Liskeard," remarked Sir Howard, " had spoken of the treaty with great levity. Perhaps the New Zealanders as a body, may not exactly have known what a treaty meant, or under stood anything of international law upon which it pro ceeded • but their chiefs did. Right or wrong, the treaty was made, it exists, and its provisions and stipulations are now well understood by the New Zealand people. It established in New Zealand the sovereign power of Eng land. The natives know well the rights it secured to them ; the august name of the Sovereign of these realms and the character of this country, are pledged to that peo ple, that the treaty will he faithfully observed. No mea sure—no course of proceeding—no policy that does not observe the utmost good faith in respect to that treaty, can be pursued without the most serious consequences. The least infraction of that treaty—the least indiscretion committed now, with reference to native titles and rights, would unquestionably lead to the most serious and de plorahl- results. The military force at present in New Zealand is inadequate to any emergency ; the interior circumstances and features of the country are, in a military sense, formidable; and the habits and character of the natives, are such as require, if once roused, very consi derable increase of force; and of other descriptions than infantry to suppress anything like a general insurrection, and desultory movements ; and I know not why I should not now state the fact, that there is not a field gun, nor one single artillery soldier in the whole of the South Australian colonies." _ _ . With warnings such as these before them, coming from so high an authority upon the subject of Co lonial policy, and their fulfilment, almost to the let ter, so closely following them, it is clear that Go vernment can no longer defer attending to the press ing necessities of the case. We look with intense anxiety for the next arrivals, and fear much that we may hear of further collisions between the Natives, encouraged by the partial success of the Chief Heki, and the proportionately dispirited Settlers, of a character which may impede the prosperity and growth of the Colony for years to come. As the first step the prestige of British power must be re established in the eyes of the people, by the presence in the Islands of a Military force, large enough to overawe the disaffected Chiefs and their followers. After this is fully effected, a firm and impartial Go vernment should be erected, to whom both parties may look with confidence, for justice in the settle ment of their conflicting claims. Perhaps it may be even necessary, and we are not certain that it would not be politic, to determine the power of the New Zealand Company altogether by the withdrawal of their grants, with proper compensation, and to commence the work of Colonization de novo, exist ing interests and titles, legitimately obtained, being respected. We have been able to coincide in the justice of many of the opinions expressed by the Times " Commissioner", with respect to the causes and the proper remedies for Irish misery and disorgani zation : and for his many valuable facts the country has reason to be grateful to him. He has occasion ally, however, confined himself too closely to surface observation ; and his conclusions, where such has been the case, are necessarily superficial, and, at times, wide from that truth which he would have attained if he had praed deeper. An instance of this is to be found in a recent latzr dated " Galway, Oct. 12," in which he thus remarl In endeavouring to describe the character of the Irish people I have not insulted them by flattery. I have stated the differences of character which exist in different dis tricts—differences so striking, that you must he wilfully blind not to observe them. What mote opposite than the character of the two towns of Belfast and Galway on the east and west coasts of Ireland ? One busy, thriving, wealthy, and improving, its manufacturing and shipping flourishing and keeping pace with the best parts of the empire; the other bearing all the evidence of a decayed town; without manufactures, its shipping contemptible, and it would be folly to call it either a very wealthy or a very improving town, although some local improvements have been forced upon it of late years. Yet compere the natural advantages of the two towns, and the position of Galway, with its bay facing America on one side, the wa ter power of a vast lake running through the town, and the facilities of inland traffic and communication which that lake close on the other side of the town affords, and it stands before Belfast beyond all competition. The same laws operate here as at Belfast. Money is as easily earned at Galway as at Belfast. How comes it that Belfast puts to use its natural advantages, thrives and prospers, whilst Galway neglects those which belong to it, and is poor ? How comes it that one town improves whilst the other decays? The advance or the decay must in either case be attributed to the people ; and when the character of the respective populations is evidently widely different— what the energetic and industrious character of one po pulation insures prosperity, and the apathetic indifference of the other brings about decay, it was but one step fur ther in the inquiry, How is this ?'' to trace it to the ac knowledged difference of race, the respective characteris tics of each having long been well known. 7 - Now we readily acknowledge the facts here stated, that where the majority of a district in Ireland is of the Celtic race, its characteristic feature is poverty, and almost destitution ; where the Saxon prevails, it is industry and comfort. But the " Commis sioner's " logic fails him when he says, that the fact being admitted, the difference of race must be the cause. There are such things as differences of early example, of education, of treatment, and of religion, to be taken into account ; and perhaps, if he had applied the probe deeper, he would have found that the difference between the Celtic people of Galway, and the Saxon people of Belfast, is mainly attribu table to some or all of these circumstances. The Celtic population of the former are Popish, priest ridden, and ignorant; the Saxon population of Bel fast are Protestant, self-depending, and educated. Hence the ignorance and misery of the former, and the industry and comfort of the latter. Nor is the cure for the state of the Celtic popu lation, in the following extract, more properly de ducible from the difference of race than their com parative condition is : The people must be taught, and led, and encouraged— nay, forced on to do that which will benefit themselves. A more tractable race, or a harder working race, where you lead them, put them to work, and offer them an im mediate inducement to work, you cannot have. But if you expect from them independent volition, where no one has gone before, or enterprise of any kind, you will fail. There is no town in the united kingdom where energy and enterprise, attention to any trade whatever, would be more certain to realize a fortune. Eleven years ago there was scarcely a pig to be bought in the market at Gaiway, and no bacon was cured here. An Englishman named Greaves thought there was an opening, and commenced buying pigs and curing them, in connexion with his shop in New-street, Covent-garden, in London. He esta blished his son here, who, though quite a young man, has created a trade, and now kills and cures 1,000 pigs a-week. Any shop well managed, any hotel well managed, any bu siness whatever well managed, with the energy and atten tion which Englishmen commonly devote to the business, would insure to any man a fortune in Galway. Yet the majority of the inhabitants are Repealers, and great talkers about misgovernment ; they abuse and vilify England and English connexion. boast how mighty well they would manage Irish affairs in a Parliament on College-green, and neglect their own business to their heart's content. Englishmen built them a town, which they have suffered to decay ; Englishmen got rich, and purchased estates, where they grow poor : but the English inhabitants at tended to their business, were enterprising and indus trious ; the present inhabitants of Galway prefer vain glorious talk about the phantom Repeal, and look on every substantial and fair advantage within their grasp with apathetic indifference. Let the " Commissioner" make the attempt to teach, to lead, to encourage, or to force tin these poor people; and he will find that there is a retard ing influence at work, which will defy his efforts. Let him attempt to lead them away from their " vainglorious talk about the phantom Repeal," to habits of sober industry and self-improvement ; and he will soon discover that, not because they are Celtic, but because they are the fettered slaves of a tyrannical superstition, whose strongest hold upon their minds is the fact of their existing misery and ignorance, they will fall away from him, and relapse into their present indolent apathy, improvidence, and wretchedness. PROTESTANT SYMPATHY An address of mingled sympathy and congratulation was recently voted by Lodge 42 of the Grand Protestant Association of Loyal Orangemen, in Liverpool, to James Watson, Esq., of Brookhill, on his recent dismissal from the magistracy of the county Antrim, to which that wor thy gentleman returned the following reply : " Brookhill, 23d October, 1845. . _ " Brother Orangemen,—l feel much gratifie'd by the resolution entered into at a meeting of Lodge 42 of the Grand Protestant Association of Loyal Orangemen, ex pressing your approval of my conduct on a late occasion, and your congratulations upon the part government was pleased to pursue towards me ; for which I beg you will accept my warm and sincere thanks. - 1 ‘ I remain, dear brethren, " Sincerely and faithfully yours, " JAMES WATSON, G.M., county Antrim " To the brothers of Lodge 42." CORRI;SPONDENCE. CHRISTIAN UNITY, TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, SIR, —Having already trespassed so much on your kind indulgence in asking a place in your columus, I feel very reluctant to continue the same request ; and yet I beg the favor of admission for one other letter next week, in answer to the questions put to me by Mr. Tod Brown. The pressure of other occupations during this week has left me without a moment, or I should have written upon the very important questionfof the nature of the Chuch of Christ, as stated by Mr. Brown. Those parts of his letter which refer to my proper use of figures of speech and grammatical matters, your readers will readily excuse my passing over as things unworthy of a Christian controversy. May we all be enabled to walk in heavenly love, and in true Christian unity. Again thanking you for your kind indulgence, I remain, faithfully yours, JOSEPH BAYLEE. 29, Hamilton square, Oct. 25, 1845. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD SlR,—Observing my name stated as one of the Com mittee, in the printed prospectus of the Portsmouth and Langston Railway and other lines published in your columns, I beg to inform you that it has been placed on those lines without my knowledge, or by the mistake of some friend ; and that I hale not the honour of being a director on any line whatever, save the " Staffordshire Potteries" and " Sheffield and Macclesfield direct" Rail ways. I am, Sir, Your most obedient servant, E. WARD JACKSON. Edgehill, 25th Oct., 1845. The Oxford Herald states th-t Mr. Oakeley has resigned his fellowship of Balliol c o!lege and prebendal stall at Lichfield cathedal, and that it is understood ha retires into lay communion. On Sunday morning last, after a sermon by the Rev. Thos. Nolan, in St. Silas Church, a collection of upwards of £2O was made towards paying the debt on St. Silas Schools The Rev. John Peel, brother to Sir Robert Peel, Bart., canon of Canterbury, it is understood has accepted the Deanery of Canterbury, vacant by the relinquishment of the Bishop of Oxford, Dr. Bagot, now Bishop of Bath and Wells. CRUELTY TO HORSES IN THE STREET.—At the Police court, yesterday, several drivers were fined 40s. each, for cruel treatment of their horses. The informaitions were lodged chiefly by private individuals, whose feelings had been outraged. A correspondent of the Dublin Evening Mail points out the following error in the Nautical Almanac for 1845. For " Saturn will be in opposition to the sun. October 28th, read Jupiter. This error is not corrected in the errata to the Nautical Almanac. TAWELL'S CONFESSION.—At the Bucks Sessions, a few days since, the subject of this culprit's confession was mentioned, when it appeared that the chaplain still re fused to give it up. A resolution was passed that the chaplain be called upon to deliver it up forthwith, and it is expected that that gentleman will not now detain it be yond the next sessions. The examination of the infants attached to the Church of England South Schools, Cornwallis -street, took place on Thursday, the 23rd instant, when the master, Mr. William Clark, was presented by the Rev. J. R. Connor (in the name of the teachers who are being trained as infant schoolmistresses in that school) with a handsome time-niece. The proficiency of the children (considering they' are infants) was most gratifying, especially in Bible history. We understand this is the third presentation to the indefatigable and zealous master since he was appointed to the school. The first was his portrait, and the other was a handsome Bible ; both, we believe, were presented by the parents of the children. PRESTON AND WYRE RAILWAY.—The half-yearly general meeting of this company was held yesterday, in Fleetwood, when a dividend was declared of ]2s. 6d. upon each £25 share. The revenue account for the half-year was most favourable, exhibiting a satisfactory increase in all the departments of income. The resignation of Mr. Sanderson, the traffic manager, was accepted ; and after a report had been read from Messrs. Bidder and Bendel', engineers, upon the subject, a resolution was adopted, empowering the directors to take whatever steps they might deem necessary for constructing docks in such a situation as may be finally determined upon ; and also in making several extensions. Some desultory discussion took place upon several topics arising out of the report, and all the resolutions having been unanimously carried the meeting separated. ST. BARNABAS DISTRICT SCRIPTURE READER.—On Sunday last two sermons were preached in St. Barnabas Church, in the morning by the Rev. J. Cordeaux, of St. Silas, and in the evening by the Rev. Hugh Nl`Neile. The congregations were numerous, more especially in the evening. We were particularly delighted with the at tendance of the poor; the free sittings, which on ordinary occasions are well filled, were then crowded to excess, literally not a spot even in the aisles was vacant, capable of affording standing room to an individual. There could not have been less than 2,000 persons within the walls of the church, and great numbers had to retire, not being able to effect an entrance at all. The collections exceeded £4O, to defray the Scripture reader to this poor, populous, and important district, containing a population of about 12,000 souls. We have pleasure in mentioning in this connexion, and with respect to Mr. Thomas Shearson, who is also the clerk of St. Barnabas Church, that some short time ago a very useful and suitably present (con sisting of a complete tea and coffee service) was made him, by a few of the ladies belonging to the congregation of St. Barnabas. This doubtless was acceptable to him, even less for its intrinsic value than as a token of the estimation in which he is held personally, and in testimony of the manner in which his kind and patient labours are approved and appreciated, alike by the pastor who superintends and the congregation who maintain him ; and we have reason to know, by the poor also of the district, amongst whom he has been labouring now for four years. CLOSE OF THE HARVEST IN THE NORTH.—Another week of fine seasonable weather has enabled the farmers in the late districts of the north of England to gather in the residue of their crops of grain in tolerable condition, and to prepare for the sowing of their winter seed. Con sidering the protracted state of the harvest, there has been little actual loss of either straw or grain. Some of the bean crops remain in the fields, but many of them have been already secured, and that in fair condition. The second crop of clover in Yorkshire, and in the north of England generally, has been unproductive ; and in most cases the cost of mowing and haymaking has been at least equal to the value of the produce. The potatoes are now principally gathered, or are in a train for being so, in this and the neighbouring county of Lancaster, and there are certainly more decayed roots than usual in these counties ; but if the other parts of the country, and parti cularly if Ireland, had been equally fortunate, there would have been no potato panic. The turnips, particularly the sweeds and the yellow bullocks, have still a very flourish ing appear ance, and will certainly exceed an average crop. The hay proves generally good in quality as well as abun dant in quantity; and on a comprehens i ve retrospect of the harvest of 1845 in this country, neither the farmers (considering the advanced price of wheat) nor the con sumers of farm produce will have nearly so much reason for complaint as was apprehended in the month of August and in the latter part of September.—Leeds Me rcury.
