A large Stock will be kept ready for imme diate use, and Original Designs executed with speed and accuracy, WALTON BAZAAR AND PROMENADE IN AID OF THE FUNDS FORA NEW ORGAN, AND FOR CERTAIN EMBELLISHMENTS REQUIRED WITHIN THE PARISH CHURCH. WALTON. A BAZAAR for the SALE of LADIES' WORK, &c. will be held in Walton during August next (the precise days to be hereafter announced), with a view to raise a Sum of Money sufficient to defray the cost of a NEW ORGAN, and for other improvements required within the Parish Church of Walton-on-the-Hill. In adopting this nethod of effecting their purpose, the Committee deem it necessary briefly to state, that ig.t(onse quence of the heavy Assessments lately made on the Rate payers for rebuilding first the Tower and afterward the Body of the Ancient Edifice, as well as from the acknowledged reluctance of the Churchwardens (even if were able) to raise the necessary amount by subscriptrOs, or otherwise, among the Parishioners generally, there remains no more likely means of obtaining a New Organ, and of rendering the interior of the Church commensurate in beauty with its handsome exterior. They are, however, gratified to find that their appeal is jikely to be eminently successful, inasmuch as many Ladies and Gentlemen have already promised their assistance, and still more, because the exclusive use of the beautiful NUR SERY GARDENS adjoining the village has been most kindly tendered, and will be appropriated for the purpose, by Mr. SKIRVING, their proprietor. While, therefore, the BAZAAR will be rendered highly attractive by the number and quality of Ladies' Stalls and Refreshment Tables, which will be placed in Marquees, to be erected in various parts of the Gardens—enlivened, too, as the whole scene will be, by two Bands of Music playing Overtures and Airs alteknately, it will, at the same time, partake of the character of a HORTICULTURAL FETE and delightful PROMENADE. Finally, as the Gommittee are no less anxious to render the BAZAAR productive than they are determined to conduct it in the most respectable and unexceptionable manner, they earnestly solicit the contributions and patronage of all Ladies and Gentlemen who are attached,'or who owe an attachment, to WALTON CHURCH—the venerable Mother of all the Churches of the surrounding district, and who would aid them, on this occasion, in rendering that well-known Temple equally beautiful within as without. The names of the Ladies and Gentlemen forming the Committee of Management will be published shortly. In the meantime, all communications may be addressed to the CHURCHWARDENS, who are Treasurers of the Fund, or to the Secretary, DANIEL M`GREGOR. (By order of the Committee.)

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE NORTHERN DIVI SION OF THE COUNTY PALATINE OF LAN CASTER. GENTLEMEN, ER Majesty having this day been pleased to declare her Al intention of Dissolving the present Parliament, I take an early opportunity of annomring myself as a Candidate for the representation of the Northern Division of Lanca shire in the Parliament which is about to h c esembled. On this, the sixth time of my appearing ore you under similar circumstances, it is unnecessary f me to reiterate my often-expressed opinions on many of the more important questions to which public attention has been mainly directed during the period in which I have had the honour of being your representative. Your own obsertation will enable you to judge whether I have pursued a course in regard to all or any of them, in accordance with your own opinions, and conducive to the general welfare. The causes, however, which have more immediately led to the present Dissolution of Parliament require from me a few remarks. I have often stated to you my belief that her Majesty's present Ministers were from various reasons incapable of carrying on the Government of this great Country, to the public advantage. Since the commencement of the present Parliament not only has this opinion gained ground in the House of Com mons, but, if one may form a judgment from the various Electiodt in the course of the last few years, the same opinion appears to prevail amongst the Elective Body gene rally The unsatisfactory state of public affairs, and more especi ally the deplorable condition of our Finances, at a time when several years of increasing revenue would naturally lead to the expectation of a far different state of things, have at length drawn from the House of Commons a declaration that her Majesty's Ministers no longer possess its confi dence. It is for you, Gentlemen, to determine whether you will ratify this decision of your Representatives, or countenance the (in my opinion) impolitic step to which the Govern ment in their extremity, and not until then, have had re course, as a last chance of regaining some little of that public confidence which by their general conduct they had for (sited. _ _ Zionios, Jute 22, 1541 I deeply lament and deprecate their attempt under the present circumstances of the country, to cause dissension bstvreen its two most important interests; but without fur ther remark on this point, I proceed, as it is my duty to you to do, to state my opinions upon the three principal measures which they have proposed— First, then, I consider the proposed alteration in the Sugar duties to be at least premature, and I cannot consent to par ticipate in the awful responsibility which it involves. Numerous arguments might be adduced, some of them made use of in a recent session by her Majesty's Ministers themselves, to prove that such an alteration must be accom panied by a frightful sacrifice of human life, and the utter destruction of all those hopes of the abolition of Slavery which tlsis Country has so long and so earnestly entertained, and for the accomplishment of which it has made such noble and sostly sacrifices. With regard to the duties on Timber (the proposed altera tion being au increased duty on that grown in our Colonies, and a decrease of that paid on Foreign Timber,) I am far from saying that some alteration may not be advantageously made, but looking to the present very critical position of the important Colony likely to be most effected by . the altera tion, I hesitate to express an opinion, till I am furnished with more information as to its probable effect than her Ma jesty's Ministers have yet thought proper to produce. The third measure proposed is a change from a fluctuating to a fixed duty on Corn. In a matter of such essential in terest to every individual in this country, I have given more than ordinary attention to all the arguments brought forward in support of both propositions, and after the fullest consi deration, and a careful comparison of their respective merits and disadvantages, especially as they affect the poorer classes of the Community, I am still in favour of a fluctuating scale. I believe that the present system, if properly regulated, and with some alteration of the existing rates, will give fair and reasonable encouragement to native agriculture without that oppression to the manufacturing, population in times of scarcity, which is inseparable from the system of a fixed, duty. I will now only add th at m y o p inio ns on th: ; I consider general Com mercial Policy of the Country remain unchanged a liberal system of Commerce essential to a s welfare; and with a view to the due development of our national resources, I advocate the remo val of all restrictions which are not ne cessary for the purposes of revenue or for a fair and reasons_ encouragement of nation al enter p rise; at the same time I am fully persuaded that this system can only be prop er l y carried out by a Government which enjoys the confidence of the country, and is strong enough in public opinion to induce a bell theiief tat its measures are fully and t fo maturely considered in al h nd r bearings, a not broughrward as mere tem porary party expedients. Deeply sensible of the honour which you have so often conferred upon me, and soliciting the renewal of your confi dence at the ensuing Election.

A PERSON who for several years past filled a highly respectable and responsible situation, has been, through unexpected and unforeseen circumstances, and trying provi dential visitations, plunged, with a Wife and Family, into a state of deep distress and extreme privation. A , prospect of li / employment, and a field of usefulness, howe er, has now opened to him in London, and he wants but a tle pecuniary means to assist him to enter on it and re N 4 himself and family to the Metropolis •, but such is hi ate of destitution that if one shilling would effect his o the cannot com mand it. He, therefore, earnestly and espectfully implores those christian friends whom the Lord, in his bounty, has blessed with an abundance of " this world's goods", and with hearts to minister to the wants of those in distress, to render him some assistance under these trying circumstances, which will place himself and family beyond want, alleviate their present sufferings, and put him in a position not only to evince gratitude, but, if needs be, minister to the wants of others suffering under similar providential visitations.

THE WEST-RIDING ELECTION (Prom the Leeds Intelligencer The respective candidates have now completed their can vassing tour, and the reception they have met with may be taken as a criterion of the result. " Coming events cast their shadows before." Lords Morpeth and Milton now see that they are to be beaten. Honest Yorkshiremen can not be again deluded by hollow promises. They are, this time, proof against Lord Morpeth's tropes and Lord Mil ton's arguments. Even the " deep pocket" will fail in a case whereon constitutional principle and common sense sit in judgment. The nomination takes place at Wakefield on Monday next; the polling will be on Thursday and Friday. We call upon the independent electors to give on Monday an earnest of what they intend to do on Thursday and Friday. Con servative electors, come forth, on Monday, in all your strength ; in the majesty of your overwhelming power ; and show, too, by your demeanour, that your moral qualities are in all respects equal to your physical superiority. Let there be no flinching. Let the day be dedicated to your great cause, which is the cause, not of a party or a faction, but of the country. This is truly the crisis of the constitution( If you wish to hand it down to your children, buckle on your , armour—put on your political might—teach Lords Morpeth and Milton, and through them, the unprincipled ministry whom they wish to uphold in place, pay, and patronage, that you are determined upon a change. Come forth and say the word, and that word will prevail. Your earnest and dearest interests depend upon it. The first step towards the resto ration of the national prosperity must be the brushing away of the locusts in office. Let us once more have a steady and honest government, and we shall soon have a revival of trade and industry. Out with the real monopolists. Down with the infamous whigs. The tailors are exceedingly proud of Lord John Russell's majority of nine; they declare it has made a man of him. DREADFUL MURDER AT HUDDERSFIELD.—Saturday light, as Mr. Benjamin Whittel, jun., fancy manufacturer, )f Stainland, near Halifax, was walking home from the Littleborough Railway station, on his return from Man- ehester market, he was shot dead through the head, aboi half-past ten, near the Barksland toll-gate, by some villain o villains, who robbed him of about £9O. Suspicion has fallet . . an an individual with whom the unfortunate man was seen company when passing through the toll-gate, who cannot now be found. The police, however, are on the look-ou% Mr. Whittel was only recently married.—York paper. MIDDLESEX ELECTlON.—Wednesday next, the 7th inst., at ten o'clock in the forenoon, is appointed by the Sheriffs for the nomination of candidates for the representation of the county of - Middlesex. The hustings will, as usual, be erected in the Butts, above the Market-place, New Brent ford. The only candidates as yet in the field are Mr. Byng, and Colonel T. Wood, the old members ; the former well known as a liberal member of fifteen parliaments, and father of the House of Commons ; and the latter a conservative, who about four years ago ousted Mr. Hume. It was, how ever, yesterday confidently stated by persons professing to be acquainted on the subject, that another candidate on each side will be brought forward on the morning of nomination, and that the contest will be a most severe one.—Observer. SOUTH ESSEX.—At a period like the present, when it is sought to excite prejudice and ill-feeling' between the yeo manry of England, and their natural protectors, the landed proprietors, it is pleasant to record any new proof of their friendly and even affectionate regard for each other. At the recent audit of T. W. Bramston, Esq., of Skreens, late member for South Essex, and now a candidate for the re newed confidence of the electors, a candelabrum, valued at about £l5O, beautifully designed and executed by Broad hurst, of Regent-street, was presented to their highly-re spected landlord, by his grateful tenants. MR. OASTLER.—The following is an extract from a letter addressed by this noble-minded man to a friend in Yorkshire, dated "The Fleet, June 23, 1841. Every day I receive tes timonies of their workings., The most extraordinary is in the case of Mr. Fitzroy Kelly, Q.C., M.P., who was em ployed by Mr. Thornhill against me in the action which brought me here, and who called here last Sunday week to offer his services to have me released from this place. Ido not care how the matter may end, but I am thankful that the man who must know all about my affairs with Mr. T., has thus been moved by the perusal of my Fleeters to offer his kind services. I was an entire stranger to Mr. Kelly, I never saw him till he called here, excepting in court on - ale day of trial."—Hull Packet. A LONG SILENCE.—A strong instance of resolution has recently come to light at Menilmanger, in the Calvados, (France.) A justice of the peace, whilst proceeding to put the seals on the goods of a deceased lady, as a protection to the interests of an only daughter, said to be insane, was much surprised by the appearance of this daughter, who declared that she opposed the seals being put on, intending not to be charged with the expense of the operation, adding, " I am not mad, as it has been reported ; two and twenty years ago my mother prevented m e f rom marry i ng accor di ng t o my liking, and locked me up in my room. I then made a vow never to any one again as long as my mother should live. I have kept to it, and here lam to l oo k a ft er my own concerns. " The lady appears in no way affected mentally by her long confine ment ; but her person is much altered, and she is now in her fortieth year. LORD JOHN RUSSELL AND THE CITY ELECTION.—it is confidently stated by those who have found means of infor mation, that Lord John Russell has no more right to be at this moment one of the members for the city of London, than the merest stranger that ever came with the sound of Bow Bell ; for that the real numbers on the poll have been so mystified and falsified as to give the noble lord an appa rent majority, while the real majority was with one of his competitors. The conservative committee unhesitatingly state that they know this to be the fact. But how the she riffs' casting up of the poll can be erroneous is, at first sight, a point of difficulty not easily to be got over. Of the honour and integrity of the two sheriffs themselves not a shadow of doubt can be entertained ; but it is just possible that corruption may have reached one or more of their sub ordinates, and that for an adequate bribe an inconvenient leaf or two may have been abstracted from one or more of the poll books. We do not ourselves suggest such to be the f ac t ; we only repeat what has been the open subject of con versation for the last two or three d ays . We know that Lord Tuesday, with a f u ll i m p ress i on and mast person s w h o had any means of i n formation thought so too , yet by some le ger d ema i n th e st J ht o a i tt l ea n dh ß te huNesysa samee was defeatedl e ; left this m r .on Grote, we a re i n f orme d , open l y noble lord is seated.—Times. l a yi e n o g ntest after all.

TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 6, 1841 We yesterday attended at Knutsford to attend the nomination proceedings for North Cheshire, a full report of the proceedings at which will be found else where. The friends of the Conservative candidates mustered extremely strong, and there is not a doubt that the ministerial whipper-in, Mr. Stanley, will expe rience a glorious defeat. Liverpool having done itself immortal honour b the return of Conservative members with so much eclat, we feel no scruple in admitting that the triumph is owing, in a very great degree, to the agency and operation of that religious principle of which we spoke in our last. We haVe not only no scruple in admitting, but we feel peculiar pleasure in proclaiming the fact, and in commending the example to universal imitation. It is more easy to speak in the abstract on such a topic than to go into details; but to any one accustomed to reflect upon the subject there is nothing more intu itively certain than the connection, the intimate con nection between church principles and political Con servatism. 'We are so perfectly persuaded ourselves of the proposition, that where we hear of Radicals being returned, we assign as the moving cause, that Church ism is low in that quarter. There may be second causessecond causes well worth looking after ; but this is a first cause—this is the grand cause—that cause of all others which demands the largest share of at ' tention. There are many who unfortunately associate in their minds with this decided preference of the re ligious principle either some gloomy idea of ecclesias tical authority, or some other equally unlovely imagi nation of cant and hypocrisy. But this arises from having taken a partial and limited view of the subject. When we speak of church principles, we do not contemplate merely the ecclesiastical order, nor are we at all the admirers of an ecclesiastical despotism; no thing at all of the sort. We hold in view simply the Church of England as it is now by law established, and such as it is esteemed, regarded, and construed to be both in doctrine and discipline by the most discreet, the most learned and moderate, yet liberal men. When we speak of church principles, we mean also the Chris- iati religion both in faith and practice as it is inter. preted and taught by the Church in her formularies — and viva voce by her evangelical bishops and minis ters ; and the dissemination of these principles through he nation, we hold to be a matter of primary—vi importance to the nation's welfare. We know that we here stand in an impregnable position—that our * We should ground is as a rock that cannot be moved be glad to know if there is any even professing mem. ber of the Church of England who would controver our proposition ? We cannot suppose that there is even one. The proposition is admitted ; but it is commonly sa id, " this may be true, but you cannot bring it to bear. It is too abstract for us ; we want to go right ahead. A little plain Conservatism--political Conser servatism that goes at once to business, is sufficient for our purpose. This Churchism you speak of is too remote, too speculative a thing : we leave that to the clergy." This appears to be the common error among Conservatives and professing members of the Church, and it is a most dangerous one. It is dangerous, be cause, with such an idea, it is evident that the gross delusion is cherished, that the English constitution can be preserved without the Church—or that the religious principle of which we have spoken is not essential to its existence. Never was there a more egregious and 'miserable delusion ! Kingdoms have risen and fallen — flourished and decayed—and the time may come when some New Zealand artist may sit upon the last re maining arch of what once was London-bridge, sketching the ruins of what once was the capital of one of the mightiest of nations; yes, England may fall, as other nations have fallen ; but upon the strength of whatever is true in history, scripture, or philosophy, we make bold to say that her Church will have fallen long before, and that if she had maintained her Church by maintaining her Church principles, this ruin would not—could not have come upon her. The Conservatives to whom we allude do not per ceive the connection between the religious principle of the Church and t political support of the Constitution; and yet, if they will inquire, they will find that all good members of the Church i n variably, or with a few exceptions, range themselves on the side of Conserva tive legislation and good government, whilst the ranks of Radicalism are as invariably made up of Dissenters, Papists, or Infidels. This is a fact, and as a fact it should suffice, even if it were impossible; which it is not, to trace out the modus operandi of the religious principle, and exhibit those secret links by which it i s connected indissolubly with constitutional policy of action. Men do not gather grapes off thorns or figs off thistles : let the religious principle be sown,and, depend upon it, the fruit will not be Radicalism. On the other hand, if the soil b e neglected, w ee d s w ill spring up though unsown ; or though you neglect it, there will be others ready to cultivate after their man ner, and the enemy will possess your fields and fill them with tares. We need not dwell upon anything so obvious. We shall notice one other objection. It may be said that, granting the truth of the pro position; the Conservatives as a party, or in the mass, cannot remedy the evil of a defective churchmanship. That must be the work of the clergy ; the laity have nothing to do with it. This is another error. The Church as a body does not consist of the. clergy only, but of laity and clergy ; and in this matter the laity are quite as much concerned as the clergy—the sheep of the flock as the shepherds. Parliament can do much— the Sovereign can do much—the bishops and clergy can do much; but the laity as a body . can also most powerfully assist. Have we not many pious laymen who do give most powerful aid in upholding and dif- fusing Church principles—by word—by example—by unbounded liberality. Assuredly we have ; and where is there an instance of such labour being in vain ? We are no advocates for a starch puritanism or an hypo critical pietism ; we wish to keep everything in its place, and to assign to every work its proper season. Our proposition, simply stated, is, Religion the basis of Conservatism—the Church of England the foundation of her Constitution—an enlightened Church-going democracy the grand support of the State. This is our proposition—a proposition not at all speculative — not at all remote from practical effects ; but the very reverse. Wherever the Church is in a healthy state, Conservatism triumphs; wherever it is dead or inac tive, Radicalism is in the ascendant. Let a Conserva tive Government and Parliament then look to this. What shall we say to the democrats of Bath, and their cry of "No national debt" ? Shall we be told, that the religious principle, or rather the want of it, had nothing to do with this ! Monstrous absurdity. It is at the very source and well-hEad of all such matters. Let governors then look after the governed—the upper after the inferior classes—the ecclesiastical body after the flock committed to their charge—and Conservatism will be strong, powerful, and predominant. We shall advert again to this most important topic. The City of Dublin Election takes place this day, and the Conservatives, we rejoice to learn, are confi dent of defeating the arch-demagogue, and his associ ate, Mr. Hutton, and of putting in two good men in their room. The Carlow County nomination is fixed for Monday next, and from that quarter also the reports are favourable. The priests have not acted with their usual good generalship on this occasion ; they began too soon ; and . the Conservatives being thus forewarned, are now, in fact, forearmed. The general opinion. in the county is, that the Daniel O'Connell putlin nomination is not really Young Nick, the incognito in France, but Old Nick himself, who is likely to want the seat, as his rejection in Dublin begins to be spoken of as nearly a certain thing. Be this as it may, the priests hat e been making most diabolical efforts to relieve themselves from the grasp of the gallant Colonel Bruen and his party, and the wretches have committed every sort of barbarity, in the hope of ac complishing their object. The houses of voters are attacked by their orders and in their presence, and the men carried off, tied on cars, and kept prisoners a long way off. Altar-cursing, bludgeoning, and brutality of every description form part of their tactics, and are all in full exercise. A respectable woman, the wife of one of the conservative electors, was met with at some dis- tance from her own house, by one of the priests' ma rauding mobs : the wretches immediately seized her, and. having stripped off her clothes, drove her before them in a state of nudity, vowing that they would murder her hereafter if she did not compel her husband to vote for the Liberator, Mr. Daniel O'Connell !. This abominable and unmanly outrage is reported in the Carlow Sentinel of Saturday, and furnishes such a spe cimen of the system put in motion by the priests, as we think must fill all good men with disgust and abhor rence at their savage ferocity and ruffianism. The pious O'Connell lifts up his eyes when these holy men are spoken of as anointed scamps and surpliced ruffians; but are they anything better ? Do not their acts pro claim them ? We believe they will be beaten with all their diablerie at the coming election. A strong mili- tary and police force has been sent into the county; order is now restored, and the Conservatives are in igli spirits Well, we have nearly come to the end of the first chapter of Free Trade versus No Confidence, and we expect the Ministerialists find themselves all at home, and quite right ! We must remember that the disso lution was a move made by themselves to improve their condition, and now we may perceive how much they are likely to amend it ! To think of Lord John Rus sell smiling and bowing to the electors of London, as though he had made a hit—his lordship having barely escaped being put out himself by a majority of nine— and the result of ;he election being a loss to the Radi cals of two votes in that one constituency ! Look again to Westminster, Leeds, Wigan, Hull, Black-. burn, and other places, and see how complete has been the failure of the Whigs to make any impression, or direct attention from themselves by their last despe rate trick of free trade. The boroughs—their strong hold—their great bulwark—have returned a majority against them ; and thus, instead of reversing the de cree of the late House of Commons, confirm it. Con- demned by that house, the culprits—to gain a little time—appealed to the people, and the people have al ready re-affirmed the sentence. We cannot be per suaded that the condemned had themselves any idea of a different result. They must have read their fate in he different elections which took place from time to ime, previous to the dissolution- , --they must have had t whispered to them by an internal monitor—by that conscience which makes cowards of us all ;" and by that respect which they still must have felt, and which a career of iniquity, however long, would not entirely obliterate, for the tribunal before which they were about to submit themselves. They well knew what was before them, and yet they had the amazing pre sumption and effrontery to retain their places, and ap peal to the nation, as if they expected it to place them in a better position. Such a proceeding could only have been resorted to first, for the sake of a little de lay ; and secondly, for the purpose of making their future opposition to a Conservative ministry as de structive and formidable as possible —a proceeding which we esteem to be, in their case, as mean and contemptible as it is certainly unconstitutional. The ministerial journals, no longer able to 'disguise the actual state of affairs, have at length laid aside their thunder, and begun to sing small. Their sole conso- lation is, that Sir Robert Peel will not have so large a working majority as the Conservatives would wish him He has only gained, they say, six or eight on the bo. roughs—and Ireland will, as heretofore, be a set o against all that he can expect from the counties. This is the staff they lean upon, but we scarcely think it will support them. We have every confidence in the counties, and county electors of England. They should know that Protestant England now looks to them as the great bulwark against revolutionists. They are placed in the gap to defend her against her own Radical towns, and the Popery of Ireland—and they, the truest of her sons, will not, we are satisfied, desert her on this trying occasion. If the counties do their duty, the triumph of Conservatism is certain—all the tricks of the enemy will have been frustrated, and the perinanence as well as accession of a Conservative Government secured. LIVERPOOL ELECTION.—" We know of nothing in the entire history of the conservative party more glorious than the verdict which Liverpool, the northern metropolis of com merce, has prenounced in their favour, by returning Mr. Cresswell in preference to the more favoured of the Whig candidates by the immense majority of ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-EIGHT VOTES , and leaving Lord Palmerston, Her Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, at the bottom of the poll, When we consider what Liverpool is, how vast its trade, how wealthy its merchants, how intelligent its population, how numerous its constituency, how thoroughly qualified to decide upon all commercial questions; when we remember that it is a commercial question on which the pseudo-government has appealed to the people, and when we reflect upon the desperate efforts which must have been made to rescue Lord Palmerston from the degrad ing position in which he stood at the close of the contest, we may perhaps appreciate the importance of this result. Who shall dare to say that the commercial enterprise of England is upon the whig side when London, and Liverpool, and Westminster, and Hull, and Bristol, and Bradford, and Blackburn, have each returned conseruative members to parliament by decisive majorities, and at the head of their respective:polls ?" Times. A HINT TO LABOURERS.—The manufacturer who bawls for the total abolition of the corn laws really means nothing more or less than reduction of wages; and the conclusion must be come to, at one leap, that if bread stuff values are to be equalized with the current rates of continental Europe, so also mast the rate of wages be. If 1,000,000 of rural workmen were ejected from land upon the manufacturing market for labour, would not the necessary effect be starva tion wages to all ? Beware of the monied traitors, who wish to fill their own pockets by reducing the physical condition of the English artisan to the squalid wretchedness of tl ie la bourers in Russia or Prussia. When it is said, the co urn is cheap—(mark this!) money to you is, or may be, the nominal price of corn ' • but labour is the real price of co rn . N ever forget, also, that the foreign is only one -seventh of the home and colonial consumption of your manufactures, and that as land and labour are the only real values, agriculture and manufactures must stand still or fall together. COMMITMENT. —At the police-court, yesterday, a woman. named Ann Robinson was charged with having taken from. her master's house several articles of wearing apparel, his. property. It appeared that the prisoner had been servant to. Mr. Harrison, furniture dealer, Stanley -street. On the 21st. of June, Mr. Harrison s wife was taken ill in the night, and, on his getting up and procuring a light he found the prisoner had decamped, taking with her the articles of female clothing: in question, including several silk and other dresses, a Tus— cany bonnet, &c. When apprehended, some of the things, also money, pawn-tickets, &c., were found in her possessio n, and others were traced to various pawnbrokers. She v /as committed for trial at the sessions.

Roberts, of 52, Fontenoy-street, which proves clearly that the origina tors of the riot, on Wednesday last, in Sawney Pope street, were Irish of the lowest stamp, thirsting for some occasion of creating a disturbance. It appears that Roberts himself was the first party attacked, and his house was broke❑ into without ceremony. The reason assigned for such an outrage being, that Roberts has hitherto been a supporter of the radical faction, but that he refused to give any promise as to his vote at the . recent election, and was therefore suspected of being opposed to that party. Several other parties in the same neighbourhood were then similarly treated. This is a sufficient answer to the charge of the Mercury, that the supporters of Lord Sandon and Mr. Cresswell were the abettors of these depredations. We observe that Mr. M'Crea intends to offer another of his lucubrations for the perusal and gratification of all enemies to the Established Church and social order. It will be well, however, if our radical friend will strive to keep his temper, and refrain from the exercise of unbecoming lan guage. Such an exhibition only tends to weaken his own cause, and gives the public reason to believe (what his friends know already) that lie is a meddling, testy, and ignorant personage.

The proceedings were commenced by the meeting giving three loud and enthusiastic cheers for the candidates. Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wellington, and LordSandon ; and three equally loud groans for her majesty's ministers. The chair was taken at half-past six o'clock, by J. D. Case, Esq. We noticed the following gentlemen in the vicinity of the chair :—Mr. Wm. Sharp, Mr. J. N. Wood, Mr. J. M. _ _ Maddock, Mr. Mainwaring; Mr. E. B. Lyon. Mr. Robin, Mr. John Laird, Mr. Tauton, Mr. Watson, Mr. Raynes, Mr. Dobbs, &c. &c. . _ _ The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said he could have wished that some one higher in station and of greater influence had been selected to occupy the position in which he had the honour to be placed that evening. But at a crisis so momentous as the present, when the sacred institutions of our country had been, as it were, shaken to their very base — when infidelity and radicalism had been stalking through this favoured land side by side—when the safety of our common country would seem to hang upon the turn which our present eventful political struggle might take—he held it, at such a juncture, to be the bounden duty of every well-wisher to his country to stand forward boldly, to throw away all diffidence in his own powers, and, however humble the sphere in which he might move—however feeble the influence he might pos sess, to exert that influence to the utmost, and be prepared with his best exertions to uphold and protect the great, good, and glorious cause of the conservatives of England. (Loud cheers.) It was under such a conviction that he had con sented to allow his name to be obtruded before the public as the chairman of that meeting. (Hear, and cheers.) The ob ject of the meeting had been loudly proclaimed by the public placards, and he need only say that they had assembled for the purpose of concerting measures to secure the return once more to parliament of their honourable, respected, and well-tried late representative, Sir Philip Egerton—(cheers) — and with him another hon. gentleman as his colleague, whose name it was only necessary to mention to ensure to it the respect and and attention of any community, Mr. Tolle mache. (Renewed cheering.) Sir Philip • Egerton was present to speak and answer for himself ; and he (the chairman) most sincerely trusted and hoped, that before the proceedings should be closed the meeting would be fa voured with the presence of Mr. Tollemache. (Hear, hear.) But it so happened that Mr. Tollemache's presence had been required at a distant part of the county that very day by his friends, who considered his presence with them on the occa sion indispensable; still he would be, if it were possible he could travel from Audlem to this place within the time. He (the chairman) was glad to take this opportunity of stating that he had the honour and pleasure to accompany Mr. Tol lemache upon a large part of the canvass ; and the meeting would be gratified to learn that the manner in which the names of Sir Philip Egerton and Mr. Tollemach were received by those electors whom they had visited was most favourable to the cause—(loud cheers) —so 'much so as to induce him to say that, with exertion, success was certain. (Renewed cheers.) At the same time, let him not be misunderstood. He could not by so saying induce any one to relax his endea vours, his zeal, or his industry. (Hear.) They had oppo nents to deal with who were active, industrious, and wily, who took every opportunity, and used every means in their power, to defeat the prospects of conservatism. (Hear.) Nay, he was sorry to add this—that he had been informed, whether it had been from vexation or disappointment at the falling state of the cause—but he had certainly been informed that they had resorted to an attempt to coerce the votes of free electors in this neighbourhood by intimidation. Now if there were any electors present who had been so assailed, or who should hereafter be so assailed, he hoped they would have the manliness to throw the attempt back with scorn and contempt, and treat such threats as they deserved, and not be deterred from recording their votes upon the day of election in favour of the conservative candidates. (Cheers.) We had every encouragement in the state of the different returns, which were daily and hourly pouring, of the results of the elections in different parts of the country. (Cheers.) The Rev. Mr. MAINWARING, of Brombrow, moved the first resolution, which, with the others, will be found in our advertising columns. It was seconded by Mr. Maddock, and unanimously adopted. Mr. SHARP proposed the second resolution. He said he was happy to inform the meeting that, in the course of the canvass of the township of Tranmere, he had found the general body of the electors perfectly aware of the present crisis, and of the necessity of electing such members as would repair the inroads that had been made in church and state by the present destructive government, who, instead of relieving the country, as they pledged themselves to do when they entered office, had actually added many millions to the national debt and increased taxation. M.r. Sharp then pro ceeded to make some appropriate remarks on the wages and food of the working-classes in Russia and Poland, and ob served that whenever he had endeavoured to induce any of his friends to come across and erect mansions for themselves he had beets invariably met with this reply :—" This is not the time to lay out money s stay until the elections are over, and we shall see Sir Robert Peel in power, with a good work ing majority, and then we shall have some confidence in laying out our funds." Mr. Sharp then, amidst the most vehement applause, exhorted the electors to come manfully and early to the poll. Mr. TANTON, in seconding the resolution, alluded to the apathy of Lord Palmerston, in reference to certain proceed ings which had taken place at Brazil, and called on the elec tors to merge all minor differences and to use their most strenuous exertions to effect the return of Sir Philip Egerton is had such and Mr. Tollemache, and sat down am idst much a pplause. Mr. J. N. Woon proposed the next r esolution. H e thanked Mr. Tollemache for coming forward to contest tha t division of the county at the request of a la r g e p roportion of the con stituents. He thanked him most heartil y for th e manly and straight-forward sentiments he h ad expressed, a nd the deter mined stand he had made in de fence of their g l orious insti tutions in church and state. ( Cheers.) He th anked him for the principles he maintained in reference to s criptural edu cation. He thanked him also, and he did so mo s t s i ncere ly, for his support of the agricultural interest s o f the country. (Great cheers.) The ag ricultural was one of the greatest interests the country possessed ho bl happen ottllled e d affwteoca away b fall, i a y d if t should the commercial interes ts woul d speedily follow, He trusted l the that e t i h a a p t . division treps ef of th o the a countyy, which ba wa Liverpool. (Tremendous cheers.) Yes, the noble conduct of the electors of Liverpool time was well de serv i ng o f t h e i r atten tion, because, for some me before the election commenced the the emi ssaries ao d lanesan d ehirelings of l , government had pa radedharanguing the peo ple on the su bject of cheap bread there, streets ; and yet, notwithstanding all the excitement, the householde rs o f t h e b oroug h h a d re turned the conservative candidates by a majority unparalleled almost in the history of L.ngland. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Mr. Tollemache had come forward at a time of considerable importance, and at a crisis when the interests of their country were at state ; and in all his experience he had never met with a gentleman so straightforward, so determined, so manly, awl so consistent as It'll. Tollemache was. (Hear, bear .) He was a gentleman that they ought to elect, for he was a Christian Englishman, who would support the insti tutions of the countey, and who would also support, without reservation, the great cause of the constitution. (Hear.) To elect Sir Philip Egerton and Mr. Tollemache for that division of the county would be a signal triumph—a triumph which he had no doubt they would achieve ; and he knew it for a fact, that if the conservatives were suceessful in both the northern and southern division of Cheshire, the govern ment would look upon it as one of their greatest defeats, (Hear, hear.) After drawing a contrast between the ad. dresses of sir. Wilbraham and Mr. Tollemache in reference to the h S4 L;Ket of the corn-laws, Mr. Wood concluded a spi rited speech .14 once more thanking Mr. Tollemache for coming forward, and calling upon fire electors to rally round the standard of - Egerton and Tolemache on the day of elec tion. (Vehement applause 4 Mr. E. B. LYON seconded the ceso)ntjon, and it was car ried. 1 .... 1 .. .. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
