Many people think you very impudent, Sir Joshua A popgun at the Queen— •and missed On which the mayor was sent to say How shocked the Whigs had been—and kissed The royal hand, by which in turn The little mayor was made a knight; But the potboy ever since has been A miserable Bedtwilit, Sir Joshua! lucky man, Sir Joshua! ghthood yours most quickly won, and easily, Sir Joshua ! And yet this lucky knight Wasn't satisfied at all, sirs, .till he fancied he had got To parliament a call, sirs ; Ills eloquence in Liverpool He couldn't find a scope for. For all the listeners he had there He'd got to thank the Pope for ! Sir Joshua! great man.

But many great reformers, At Sir Joshua's pretensions, Turned up their saucy noses, And in consequence dissensions Most sad arose amongst the ranks, And some declared outright, sirs, They wouldn't march through Coventry With this obscure knight, sirs, Oh, Sir Joshua! upstart, Sir Joshua ! Yours is not the corn for them—'tis only chaff, Sir Joshua! The knight, however, shewed soon He was a man judgematical, And knew the nature well Of the Whig aristocratical; United with a high-up PAL.

Oh, Sir Joshua! unfortunate Sir Joshua! Oh, Sir Joshua! unfortunate Sir Joshua! ELECTIONS IN SCOTLAND. GLORIOUS CONSERVATIVE TRIUMPHS !! (From the Scottish Standard) The spirit of reaction, so nobly exemplified in London and so many English towns, has extended in good earnest to the burghs of Scotland. We have now to record what must be regarded as, perhaps, the two most signal triumphs con servatism has yet achieved in the United Kingdom. The Haddington and Falkirk burghs have been wrested from the degrading and hateful thraldom in which they have so long been held by the whigs and radicals. Mr. Balfour and Mr. Baird, the two conservative candidates, have been returned, and the two former whig-radical members, Messrs. Steuart and Gillon, rejected. This is a gain of four votes to the conservative party, and affords a glorious example to the Other constituencies of Scotland. Mid-Lothian, Argyllshire, Dumbartonshire, will be with out a struggle ! Ten additional votes to Sir Robert Peel from Scotland !—and the elections scarcely commenced !! Rox burghsbire, it appears, is to be contested—a most despicable and disgraceful attempt, which will, of course, end in the utter failure of its contrivers. This will make twelve votes; and with equal confidence, we reckon upon Stirlingshire to make fourteen votes ! In Edinburgh, Leith, Dundee, Perth, Stirling, and St. Andrews, the whigs, it must be confessed, have done wonders —they have kept their ground! Mr. Aytoun, however, all but beat a whig lord of the Admiralty, Lord Dalmeny's majority being only nine! This is a sorry triumph. In Dundee, too, the anti-corn-law league, the main authors of all this agitation, have sustained a most ignominious defeat in the rejection of their president, a canting millowner, namad J. B. Smith ; a plain merchant of the place, Mr. Duncan, who is a tory at heart, as everybody knows, having been carried by a large majority. We make the whig minis ters heartily welcome to this triumph also. Of the other elections to come, we can speak with the ut most hope. The examples already set to the constituencies, will not be without their just and natural effect. In Glas gow, the conservatives will make a noble fight, and we ex pect will succeed in returning Provost Campbell, who is the only conservative candidate. Kirkcudbright, Banffshire, the Elgin, and Wigton burghs, previously possessed by the whigs, also promise to add to the list of conservative triumphs. From Aberdeen we have the most cheering accounts of Mr. Robertson's proc , ress and prospects. Renfrewshire, Wigton shire, and Caithriesshire, hitherto held by conservatives, are contested ; but though the struggle may be keen, no fear is entertainep that the whi gs w il l b e successful in any of these districts. Mr. Pitt never dined but once vith King George the Third, and that was at Weymouth; pro pensities of Lord Melbournel what a co n t ras t w ith the MYSTERIOUS OCCU RRENCE AT CR w eic --.—Considerable excitement has been created in Chiswi ck " by the following extraordinary occurrence. It appear w ok orrn who keeps James Brown, aged 19, the son of a po( t ,r at a youth named as 'niswick-lane, a sort of chandler's shop near the corner with has for some time past been in the habit of at card pnegncling several abandoned characters in the neighbourhsataltis his mother'sgeneralv whole days and nights with them playing variably losing money which he purloined from till. A low pubic-house near the water-side was the rendezvous of this gang of profligates, who, when ex pelled from there, usually adjourned to one or other of their respective homes, where they contrived to gain admission without disturbing any of the inmates. On Sunday morning the youth Brown was found in his bed a corpse, hi pro left pped up in a sitting posture, with a pillow , &c., while in s han he still held a number of cards. The rest of the pack were lying about on the bed, which bore the impression of some one having been seated at the foot. Deceased's companions declared that, on the morning in question, he went home by 'llloltself about four o'clock. There does not appeor to be the — ea s e lib; of his baying died a natural death. FOREIGN iNTELLIOENCE UNITED STATES The Great Western steamer arrived in Kingroad, Bristol, on Saturday evening at half-past eight o'clock, after 14 days' passage, for nine of which she encountered a continuance of easterly gales, with dense fogs. She has brought with her American papers to the 19th of June. and eighty-four pas sengers. She brings also the Governor-General Lord Sy denham's speech to the newly assembled Parliament of the now united Canadas, which had been received by express at New York on the morning of her sailing, for a copy of which we are indebted to the kindness of Captain Ilosken (it not having been published in the papers at the time of the ves sels sailing). The arrest and detention of AP Leod is thus referred to : _ _ . - . " A subject of her majesty, an inhabitant of this province, has been forcibly detained in the neighbouring States, charged with a pretended crime. No time was lost by the executive of this province in remonstrating against this proceeding, and provision was made for ensuring to the individual the means of defence, pending the further action of her majesty's govern ment. The Queen's representative at Washington has since been instructed to demand his release. Of the result of that demand I am not yet apprised, but .T. have the Queen's com mands to assure her faithful subjects in Canada of her ma jesty's fixed determination to protect them with the whole weight of her power." Among the subjects to which the attention of parliament is especially directed, is the adoption of measures for devel oping the resources of the province, by well-considered and extensive public works. The Governor recommends the improvement of the navigation from the shores of Lake Erie and Lake Huron to the ocean—the establishment of new in ternal communications in the inland districts—works requi ring a great outlay, but promisinz commensurate returns. A loan of £1,500,000 sterling for these and other purposes will be negotiated under a guarantee of the Imperial Trea surv, should the British Parliament agree to the proposition of Ministers to that effect. The Governor recommends a large appropriation for miii tary defences, and states he has her Majesty's command to say that " liar North American possessions shall be main tained at all hazards as part of her empire." Nothing, we regret to say, was known of the President in the United States. . . . Congress had been in a very disunited state ; its organiza tion had, however, been at length effected. A very lengthy and angry debate, occupying two sittings, had taken place on the release of Colonel M`Leod, which terminated in the adoption of a motion to refer the matter to a committee on foreign affairs, who now have it under their consideration. Some of the speakers took a very warlike view of the matter ; the majority of the members, however, deprecated such lan guage. Congress was also much occupied with discussions on their financial deficit. Of the bank project the Commercial Advertiser of the 16th says—" The bill for the establishment of a fiscal agent of the government of the United States, intended substan tially to answer all the essential purposes of a national bank, comes not in the form that we could most desire, and before it shall become a law, it may be modified in some of its fea tures. But there are difficulties in the way, which those at a distance can neither discern nor appreciate. It is our opinion reluctantly formed, that a charter for such a bank as the great mass of the commercial and busi ness men of the country most desire, cannot now be obtained. And in regard to the plan before us, although doubts are entertained by some as to the wisdom and practi cability of some of its provisions, yet we do know that there are those among the ablest and clearest heads who believe that it will work well and answer every purpose. For our selves we certainly hope that the bill may be so amended as to leave no question as to the opinions of those who pass upon it, that a national bank, in the broadest sense of the term, with power to establish branches wherever they may be deemed necessary, is a perfectly constitutional measure. Such is the established adjudicated law of the land; and the contrary principle, or even a doubt upon the question, ought not to be conceded." WEST INDIES. We have just been favoured with the perusal of a private letter from Berbice, dated 11th May, of which we subjoin the following extract. We hail this event as the prelude to a more auspicious period in the history of the West Indies, and the first approach to a rational system of treatment of the un happy victims of the slave trade captured by our cruisers : " Arrived this morning, the Portuguese brig Second of February, captured off Rio by H. M. Sch. Fawn. She sailed from Africa with 510 slaves, 135 of whom died in the passage of only 13 days. At Rio they were removed to different ves sels, and the captured slaver, after being thoroughly fumi gated, was despatched to the nearest British colony, Berbice, with 180 of them. Of these 20 died on the passage, which was very tedious-53 days. Of those that arrived, the sick were sent to the hospital, and the rest to Plantation Over winning. With the exception of 10 or 12 they are all young people, a fair proportion of both sexes, the eldest not exceed ing 20, and the youngest 10 years, and were pretty healthy considering their confinement. If you had only heard, their joyful songs when they were told they were free and would be protected, you would never forget the scene. " It is said that the remainder of this cargo, and from 500 to SOO others, captured shortly before, are only waiting a conveyance for this colony to be sent on, and that the Vene zuela steamer and this captured brig are to be sent for them immediately. . . " Even under the comparatively kind treatment of a British officer, and with four times their original space, they were not one whit better off than the cargoes of swine you and I have often seen arrive from Ireland. What mnst have been their condition when the small-pox and scurvy were raging, in all their horrors, on board!" litlitßlßLE mummy: NEAR KNARESDRO% One of the most deliberate and cold-blooded murders that has ever- been committed -within the recollection of man, took place last Saturday morning, between the hours of twelve and one, at the above place. Three young men, two under the age of twenty, the other twenty-three, were the perpetrators. The victim of their prey was a poor, inoffen sive, harmless, good-natured old man of the name of Joseph Cocker, who kept the White. Hart, a small public-house in the market-place be lost his wife in November last, and since that time has lived alone. It appeared by their own confession at the coroner ' s inquest, .th a t they had intended committing the horrid murder the previous night, but a neighbour happening to come in, their blaek deed was frus trated until the following night, when, at about eleven, having watched the company out of the house, the three went in and had five pints of ale. It was then getting late. They wanted more, which the old man refused them, saying it was after twelve, and time to go to bed. The oldest lad made no more to do, but without any hesitation took a hammer out of his pocket, with which they had provided themselves, and struck him violently on the head, which knocked him on his knees, when he cried out, " Don't kill me, lads ; and the blows being quickly repeated, he fell, groaning awfully. The blows and the groaning were heard by a Mrs. Snow, whose back premises adjoin, .who was up, and who went into the yard and looked through the window, and saw three men standing over him. She tried the door, and cried, " What are they doing with you, Cocker ?" Fortunately the door was fast, or there is no doubt she would have shared the same fate. She then went to call her husband up. The vil lains went out when the door was tried, and consulted in the street for two minutes, when they thought they had not killed him, so they all agreed, and returned, according to their own words, to kill him out. By that time the husband of Mrs. Snow had got down, when he saw the murderers. They, hearing him, blew out the candle, and ran away about a mile from the town, but one of them proposed that they should return, which they did. In the mean time the police and constables made the most active search, and much to the credit of their activity they succeeded in taking the whole of them by three o'clock, one by the water side, another in another part of the town, and the murderer himself lurking about the house with the intention of robbing it. The de ceased's pockets were turned out, but only some 3s. 6d. was taken from him ; every other step of the stairs was marked with a footstep of blood ; there was £6 or £7 up stairs, which the villains had not time to get. The house had the appear ance of a slaughter-house. Never was beheld such a sight for a jury to view. The men went through the inquiry with the greatest calmness, stating here and there additional facts. They likewise stated that they thought he had saved a little money, and it was not malice or revenge, for, as we have be fore stated, he was certainly the most harmless man in the town—but plunder was their entire object. It is said, that had they succeeded, there were four or five others marked out for the same fate. Never has Knaresbro'been the scene of such a horrid tragedy ; that one of Daniel Clark by Eugene Aram was not near so daring, as this is in the middle of the town, in a narrow space entirely surrounded by houses. The names of the prisoners are—Burliston (the oldest), who struck the fatal blow ; Nuttal, the former one's accomplice the pre vious night; and Charles Gill (the youngest), a lad not more than 17 or 18. The first is committed to York Castle for wilful murder; and the others for being present as aiders and abettors.—Leeds Intelligencer. DESCRIPTION OF HER MAJESTY'S SHIP TRAFALGAR She is a perfect man of war; has good space between her ports on every deck, clear of hanging chocks to the beams against the side, having no projections or obstructions in the way of fighting the guns ; has great space on her orlop deck, the beams being continued all fore and aft, with a good flush three-inch flat, presenting at her sides a strong trussed figure, beautifully arranged with wood and iron, each standing in a different direction, the materials being so distributed as to give the greatest strength to the fabric ; and, having no wing pillars nor officers' store-rooms, as formerly, gives a spacious acommodation for taking troops in time of war, or an oppor tunity of messing her crew, keeping her guns on the lower deck clear and ready for action. This deck can be lighted by tube scuttles through the side between the beams of the gun deck, giving ventilation for the benefit of the health of the crew, in addition to light, similar to a frigate's lower deck. The trussed figure is continued below in the hold throughout with strengthening pieces on the floor-heads, the size of the keelson, in the same direction, all fore and aft, instead of the old cross or thwart-ship riders formerly used in the ceiling, and the diagonal trussing being better distributed, not only adds considerable strength to the vessel, but greatly increases her stowage. The wings, which were formerly on the orlop, are now in the hold at the sides, which affords an opportu nity of stopping a hole seven feet lower under water, and causes a circulation of air around the ship's side in the hold which was never obtained before. Her main powder maga zine is designed in midships, with platform in the hold for store-rooms, and a grating platform in midships for the hempen cables and a third tier of thanks, which keeps them in a position to allow of every one being nsed without re moving any from their places, as well as increasing the stowage of water. The shot lockers are taken away from the well, and shot-racks are fitted at the sides of the ship, by which the shot are placed single all round on both sides, keeping them free from corrosion, and always ready when required for action, and that immense weight removed from pressing down the vessel at the main mast. She is fitted with safety keels, which add much to the strength of the ship as well as her preservation from shipwreck, should she get on shore ; the keels may be carried away and the safety of the ship not endan gered. She is built with a strong internal round stern, well adapted for fighting her guns, and externally a square stern, presenting a perfect and pleasing appearance, al though unadorned with carving work, preserving the form and beauty of the ship withcut depriving her of the advantage of fighting her guns. The top sides are clear of any protec tion, no trunks being required to carry off the water over the sides from the several decks as formerly, each deck being delivered of its water by pipes leading into the common gun-deck scupper, by which the water is passed overboard, preserving the side from decay and preventing the necessity of cutting scupper-holes in each deck. The head may be fitted with a copper pipe at the side of the stem, instead of the disagreeable appearance of wooden trunks, as usually fitted in men-of-war, which will keep the head perfectly clean, and the pipe so fitted cannot be displaced by any accident. The rudder is fitted very securely, and so re markably safe, that it could not be easily carried away as formerly ; even if all the pintles were broken off, the rudder would keep in its place and work on the braces (an instance of this occurred to the Flamer when in the West Indies.) The Trafalgar has an iron flange on the rudder-head, with three holes to receive an iron powl-pin, by which the rudder can be secured in midships or on either quarter, and the ship laid to in case of accident to the tiller. She has pipes in her quarter galleries, conducting the water from every stool by one hole only. The dead lights in the stern are made to slide behind the blank sash, so as to be always ready for closing in an instant if required, saving the difficulty of hanging them over the stern, as usually done in square stern ships. Tube scuttles are designed to be fitted in the ship's sides on the lower deck for light and air, over the seamen's mess-tables, when the guns are housed and ports closed in bad weather. Her sides are more substantial than usual, in consequence of there being no chocks under the beams ; the inside stuff is thicker and more capable of resisting an ene my's shot than the old sides were, and the chocks being taken away, the danger of splinters is removed. We have no time to give a further description at present, but will state her dimensions as follows : Length on gun deck Length of keel for tonnage .. Breadth, extreme Breadth for tonnage Breadth, moulded Depth in hold Burden in tons, 2721 20-94 ft. in. 205 6 170 5 55 71 54 9i 53 111 23 2 In conclusion, we have to add, this noble and splendid man of-war has been built wholly on the improved principle of Mr. Oliver Lang, the builder, whose experience during the late war, and since the time of peace, has given him the opportunity of performing for his country what has not been equalled in any kingdom. SINGULAR SUICIDE AT STAPLEFORD ABBOTT. A case of suicide occurred last week in the parish of Sta pleford Abbott, in this county, under circumstances of a very romantic character. A labourer, named James Ram sey, about 20 years of age, having visited Jane Hills, a re spectable young woman in the service of Mr. James Dixon, for many years as a suitor, in consequence of her refusal to marry him, quitted his house, and enlisted on the 9th ult. He, however, became dejected and miserable, and five days afterwards was found lifeless, suspended from a tree in Mr. Dixon's garden, at four o'clock in the morning, close to the window of the bed-room in which the object of his attach ment slept. An inquest was held on Tuesday, before C. C. Lewis, Esq. coroner, when it appeared from evidence that he was considered to be in his right mind, but that be was habitually sad. He had been connected with the girl Jane Hills for about two months, and was disappointed at her re fusal or backwardness to marry him. A sheet of foolscap was found in the deceased's hat, under the tree on which he hung, and unon it was written in pencil as follows ;- 0 My Dearest as God gives me leaf to write these few words to yow what I do tell you it certainly is trew for what I done you caused me to do so what i tell you bear easy in your mind for i love thee so well i cant leave thee behind So my dearest Jane ive come again as you may find he here no tongue can tell I know it well i have been so sewere but when to the tomb its there fore to remain I hope you will not lay to heart so heavy a load of pain for its when that i do go i hope its kind you will behave as i loved you and you loved me you will follow me to the grave so its now to all my friends and my relations far and near i hope unto these lines you will lend an eare so its now fore to conclude and finish all my rjme i think within my own mind i am jest in my prim so now my dearest Jane i hope its kind you will behave and its when that homewards i do go you will follow me to the grave Whoever finds this pray read it to my dearest beloved Jane hills God bless you my dearest Jane for my dearest beloved Jane hills pray read it to her for my sake The jury returned a verdict of " temporary derangement." —Abridged from the Essex Herald.

CLIMATE OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA. —Much has been writ ten against the climate of Australia—chiefly by persons whose brief residence could ill entitle them to form an opinion—although of the healthy character of the climate we do not presume a doubt remains. The purity of the air, indeed, and the continual mild temperature of the districts beyond the ranges, and during nine months of the year, from February to November, in the Adelaide:country, have been found, in asthmatical complaints particularly, an abso lute specific. Numerous instances could be given of indivi e duals who, in.thismtroesataitn'agvoduirseeadsec,oubnuttiews who . av n e gla martyrs to this nd : completely were ophthalmia have been cured.

SATURDAY EVENlNG.—Notwithstanding the banking failures which have occurred in town and country, followed, as usual, with sinister rumours of other mischief of the same sort, or trading embarrassments resulting, the funds con tinue steady. and even with a shade of improvement. Con sols were 89-1 to for the opening. Exchequer Bills 14s. to 16s. premium. Bank Stock 1681 to 9. The quotations of Foreign Stocks remain much the same. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents 53 to A, the Five per Cents 100 to A. Belgian 100 to 1. Spanish Active with the Coupons 21i to 2.

Colombian 201 to 1/. The accounts received from Liverpool this afternoon give the stock of Cotton at 587,800, against 433,300 bales at this time last year. The sales of the week have been 29,230 bales, and the imports this year 717,702 bales. The imports this week are 20,489 bales. The demand is represented has hav ing materially improved, and the consumption has been re cently above the average. The supply of American qualities has rather decreased, and they have risen in consequence Id to Id per lb ; Brazil sorts have also been firmer. Indigo continues in very limited demand, but prices are fully sustained, and likely to continue so until the sale of the 13th inst., which is now increased to 13,307 chests. As yet, little more than 8,000 chests are ready for inspection, among which is an unusually large proportion of good and middling consuming qualities; the remainder are in course of landing, and will with difficulty be got ready in time to see them correctly. Lac Dye improves in demand for home use as well as for exportation, but prices remain without alteration ; the importation, however, falls off considerabiy, which causes holders to be less disposed to sell at present rates. Ssltpetre is more in demand, but prices have given way a little at the recent public sales, and holders are now more firm. Nitrate of Soda is in very limited request, but prices, however, do not give w in way. Brimstone is rather more in demand, and higher prices are demanded. Dye woods —Logwood is less request, but prices are fully supported. Fustic is in more moderate demand, and prices are firm. Barwood is scarcely enquired for. Camwood goes off in small quantities, at full prices. Saunders Wood is exceedingly dull, and prices. in nominal. Lima and Nica ragua Woods continua limited demand, but prices are fully sustained. Sapan Wood meets a ready sale, at full prices. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE PROMOTIONS Rev.

NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE CENSUS RETURN.-011 Monday last, at Newham petty sessions, the Rev. William Black, rector of Blaisdon, in this county, was fined £5 and costs. It appeared from he census paper, produced to the bench by the enumerator, that the rev. gentleman had writ ten on it, as an excuse for not complying with the act of 3 and 4 Vic., cap. 99, the following :—" The person to whom this paper was sent cannot conscientiously make any return, as he considers it highly sinful to number the people. See the 24th chap. of the 2d Book of Samuel, in the Holy Bible." —Gloucester Journal. EXPLOSION AGAINST THE ROYAL GEORGE.—AII the other preparations necessary for the first great explosion of this year having been made on Tuesday last, Mr. George Hall, the celebrated diver, was sent down about half-past twelve o'clock, to examine the bottom previously to the charge being lowered into the water, when, on descending into the crater of a small charge, that had been fired the evening before, be unexpectedly found a gun, to which he attached chain slings, and came up again. Colonel Pasley, who was on board No. 5 lump to superintend the operation, directed that the gun should be got up even if the delay thereby occasioned should require the explosion to be post poned. This, however, did not prove necessary. The gun was bronght up after Hall had attached a second pair of slings to it, by means of the capstan and crab of that lump working together; after which the charge was lowered into the water, and'the same diver descending with it, placed it, as originally proposed, at the bottom of the crater formed by the small explosion before-mentioned, where he lashed it to a pig of ballast, and came up again in six minutes. Colonel Pasley then desired Lieutenant Hutchinson to go board No. 4 lump, where the voltaic battery was stationed, and when he saw that all was ready, he gave the signal to fire by sound of bugle, according to custom ; when, before the last note was finished, an instantaneous explosion was known to have taken place by a very violent shock, or rather two blended into one, for such it:seemed, accompanied by a re port like that of a distant gun. By this time the tide was running strong to the eastward, in consequence of the ope ration having been delayed about three-quarters of an hour beyond the appointed hour by the recovery of the gun. Hence, as several seconds always intervene after the explo plosion before its effects are seen at the surface, the strength of the tide overpowered the rising column of water, and the surface was merely raised in the form of a segment of a sphere of very moderate height, which spread gradually round in a circular form to a considerable extent, black with mud from the bottom ; and this upheaving, attended with great commotion of the water, did not take place vertically s c over the positi on of the charge, but to the eastward of it. un s Hence, though the effect at the bottom was no doubt as pow erfulould be desired, there was no column of water thrown u last sinto year;the air, so th a s s t in th e n Colonel um er numerous 1 e s spectators great psrexplo sionsy of stationed on the decks of the men of war anchored opposite, and partly collected ' achts and other sailing vessels and boats, must have beemn which could isappointed in the effect of the ex plosion,scarcely repay came out merely to enjoy it the trouble of those who as a spectacle, • FREE TRADE AND CHEAP BREAD The following statement, taken from the report of the late Factory Commissioners appointed Lord John Russell and his party, as to the comparative prices of labour, ought to be brought before the different election committees : " The factory operative in England works 69 hours per week, for which on an average he has 11s. wages. " In America he works 78 hours, and has 10s. wages per week. " In France he works from 72 to 84 hours, and has ss. Bd. per week. " In Switzerland he works 78 to 84 hours, and has 4s. sd. per week. " In Tyrol he works 72 to 80 hours, and has 4s. per week. " In Saxony he works 72 hours per week, and has 3s. 6d. wages. " And in Bonn! in Prussia, he works 94 hours, and has 2s. 6d. wages per week." Free trade humbug, if it gives us cheap bread, gives also a beggar's wages. DREADFUL EXPLOSION IN OLD BOND-STREET, LOND ON. —Yesterday week, between the hours of six and seven o'clock, the inhabitants of Old Bond-street and the neigh bouring vicinity were thrown into the utmost alarm in con sequence of a tremendous explosion, similar to the discharge of cannon, which was ascertained to proceed from the ex tensive manufactory of Messrs. Eley and Co., cartridge and percussion-cap manufacturers of Emmett's-mews, Old Bond street. A vast number of persons immediately proceeded to the premises, accompanied by a number of the police on duty near the spot, when they found that great destruction had taken place. The consternation of those engaged in the concern was so great, that at first little could be collected from them, but after the first confusion every effort was made to ascertain whether any parties had perished, and also the extent of damage. It was very shortly discovered that Mr. Eley, the proprietor of the manufactory, and who carries on his business in St. James's. at the corner of Jermyn-street. had perished. On search being made through the dilapi dated premises, •he was discovered stretched on the floor of the counting-house, a frightful spectacle to behold. He was surrounded by a quantity of dark-coloured blood, his left arm and hand were blown off, his right thigh was nearly severed, both his feet were blown to atoms, his person in other respects was mutilated and blackened, and scarcely a remnant of his apparel was left about him. Information of the awful catastrophe was immediately forwarded to Mr. Gell, coroner for Westminster, who appointed Saturday af ternoon for the holding of the inquest. After the jury had viewed the body of the deceased, the following evidence was produced :—Mr. Charles Eley, of Cheshunt, said that de ceased was in the habit of using detonating or fulminating mercury, a composition of a most combustible and danger ous nature. He bad no doubt the deceased was stirring the composition when it exploded. Mr. —, solicitor, of Re • gent-street, stated on behalf of Mr. Emmett, the proprietor of the premises, that he had not been aware of any combus tible matter being used by the deceased ; that had the fact been known to the neighbours, the unfortunate deceased would have been indicted. Ann Stubbins, servant to the deceased, stated that the whole of the partition and roof of the room in which the composition was made had been more or less carried away and injured, and all the windows de stroyed. Joseph Long, and James Price, both in the de ceased's employ, stated that the detonating mercury was ob tained at Mr. Diamond's, on Holborn-hill. After the other evidence had been heard, the jury returned a verdict of " Ac cidental death." The deceased, who has left a large family, was much respected.—Herald. - Carena, Hayden, hence at Malta, and sailed 15th June for the Levant Gunga, Reside, from China, at Sincapore, and sailed 7th Apri for Australia Canopus, Titherington, sailed from Sincapore for Mauritius 26th March, and Dumfries, Thompson, for Adelaide, 3rd April Jupiter, Sedman, from Sincapore, at St, Helena Earl Grey, Bell, from Calcutta, ditto William Lockerby, Stroyan, sailed from St. Helena for Liverpooi Bth May John .

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, JULY 2. Srigar.—There has been a very good demand, and 700 hhds. B. P. have been disposed of at steady prices. Bengal have also been more inquired for, and the Grocers have taken 5300 bags, chiefly at 63s to 67s for low to middling white ; fine white are scarce, and would command an advance on former prices. Of Mauritius the sales are 1500 bags at the quotations.

A few chests Bengal Indigo are reported, at full - prices. 15 chests Lac Dye sold at 10 to is 7d, 41 chests East India Gum Arabic at 43s to 455, 200 pockets Turmeric at 235, 31 cases of very ordinary Cowries at 30s, 54 cases of Castor Oil at 4id per lb, and 1800 pockets East India Linseed at 48s per quarter. The market is quite bare of Nitrate of Soda, and the late high prices have caused the Manufacturing Chemists to return more generally to Saltpetre, which has in consequence been in better demand, and the market is nearly cleared of ordinary qualities; the sales this week are about 1700 bags, at 26s 3d to 28s per cwt. duty paid. A cargo of Nitrate of Soda is reported as sold to arrive; the price, however, has not transpired. Dyewoods.-150 tons Campeachy Logwood have been sold at £8 15 to .0, and a cargo for export, the price of which is not re ported ; 120 tons Jamaica and St. Domingo at 5s to .eti 12s 6d, and ..tlOO tons Savanilla Fustic at .t"5 per ton. The Turpentine market continues depressed, and 11 s has been accepted for 500 brls. of fair quality. Of Stockholm Tar 500 brls. have been sold from the quay at the quotations. Montreal Pot Ashes go off in limited quantity at 28s 6d. Pearl Ashes dull. Hides.—Salted Monte Video and Buenos Ayres continue to move at steady prices, and about 7500 Ox are reported at 4d to 4id for sound. Tobacco.—The market remains in a very quiet state, and scarcely any business has been done this week ; for the last month the sales reach 200 hhds., of which 50 were for Ireland, 40 for export, and 280 to Manufac turers. Prices are by no means firm, but we do not alter the quo tations. The demand for Brimstone continues steady; sales reported are about 750 tons, at previons rates. A few small lots of Sicily Sumac have been taken at I Is to Ils 3d, and of Verona at 6s 3d to 6s 6d per cwt. Argols and Tartar go off heavily. Nothing done worth notice in Annatto or Berries. Small sales only reported in Madders or Roots, at previous rates. Nothing done in Quercitron Bark. Olive Oil has been more inquired for, and the holders having shown a disposition to sell, have accepted lower prices for about 50 tuns, chiefly Spanish. The only transaction this week in Fish Oils has been a sale of 20 tuns new pale Seal, off the quay, at £3l per tun. Pale Rape Oil is offered lower, but no sales are effected. Linseed Oil is in fair demand at 305 to 30s 6d per cwt., which is a little improvement. Oil of Turpentine continues in limited demand, and the price irregular, so that our annexed quotations must be considered little more tnan nominal. Palm Oil.--In the early part of the week ~33 15s to £34 was pretty readily obtained, but holders have since met the demand at rather lower prices; the sales amount to 240 tons, at £33 lOs to £34, and about 240 tons taken for export, the exact price of which has not transpired, supposed to be rather under these rates. In Hemp or Flax there are no transactions to report, except a sale of 140 bales of Jute, of fine quality, at £l4 105 per ton. The Tallow market has again rather improved ; yellow Candle brings 47s 6d to 48s, and there are few sellers below the latter price. About 100 casks Buenos Ayres Tallow, of good quality, have been sold during the week at at 42s 6d to 44s per cwt.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET,A JULY 2 The demand for Cotton to-day has again been good, and fully 5,000 bales have been sold at decidedly dearer prices, with a tightening market. The sales of the week are 29,000 bales, of which speculators have taken 3000 American, and exporters 300. As regards prices we quote them id. to id. up since last Friday on all descriptions of American, whilst all other kinds are much on a par with last week.. COTTON MARKET, JULY 3 The attendance of buyers in our market this morning was very numerous, and fnlly 6,000 bales have been sold, at prices a shade higher than yesterday. Two houses have bought 2,000 bales on speculation. COTTON MARKET, JvLv 5. Our market has been very lively to-day, and a fair extent of busi ness has been done to the extent of 5,000 bales, at the full prices of last week, with a barely supplied market for the demand. 1,000 Peruvians and 600 bales of West India Cotton will be offered by public auction on Friday next. COTTON MARKET WEEKLY REPORT. A more general demand has been experienced throughout this week than for some time past , the holders have evidently been less, willing to sell, some having withdrawn the stocks from the market, and an advance of id to id per lb has been generally ob tained for all qualities of American, but in other descriptions no change has taken place. Speculators have taken 3000 American, and exporters 300 American. There have been forwarded into the country unsold during the last month 5600 American and 130 Pernambuco. 1000 Sawginned Peruvian and 600 St. Domingo are declared for aucti od on Friday next.

From Canada, however, there have arrived 15,200 barrels of Flour and 3,590 quarters of Wheat, which being admissible at the colonial rate of duty, 3s per brl. and as per qr., respectively, may be con sidered as coming at once upon the free market. There has been a moderate business in Wheat for consumption, and, holders being firm, the prices quoted at the close of last week have been fully maintained. The market is almost cleared of duty-paid States' Flour, and the dealers have taken Canada, but not freely, at 355 6d to 36s per barrel. With little increase in the supply of Oats and Oatmeal, and the continuance of a limited demand, both may be noted somewhat easier to buy. No change as regards Barley. Beans, and Peas, each selling only in retail. Two or three parcels of Wheat, in bond, have changed hands at 5s 3d for Odessa up to 6.s 8d per 701bs for Danzig, about 2,000 barrels of Flour at 23s per barrel. Some cargoes of foreign Wheat have also been sold, to arrive, within the range of our quotations. LONDON GAZETTE.- FRIDAY, JULY 2. PARTNERSHIPS DISSOLVED T. and J.
