The withering bla't that from Time's quiver flies. Thy warriors bold, that, with their hardy front, Fierce and unshriuking, braved the deadly brunt Of war, have long resigned their sword and shield — Long since have fled the gory battle-field ; And now, unmindful of their ancient pride, All in the gloomy grave for ever hide. The captive too, that in thy dungeons moaned, Or on the rack 'midst all his torture groaned, — Be too has left his cell, and now is Erect From all his earthly woe and misery. But thou, as firm as venerable time, Still towering stands in all thy strength sublime; While thrones and empires flourish and decay, And countless mouldering ages pass away : And mayest thou still for endless ages stand, Pride of the sons of Albion's favoured land ! Oct. 14. LITERcIRY NOTICES. Master Hutnphrey's Clock. 19. By Boz Liverpool Wareing Webb, This is the most vigorously-written number that has yet appeared. It is full of incident and " situation," as the dramatists have it. The description of the conduct of the rioters in the cells, while Newgate was burning, is vivid and deeply interesting. The account of the attack of the mob upon the distillery on Holborn-hill—which we some months ago anticipated would be narrated, being one of the most extraordinary features in the riots—has been given with ex traordinary power. In fact, throughout the number, much interest is excited. Several old acquaintances are brought before our notice, while a retributive justice is being dealt to others. Some highly dramatic scenes tale place. Blackwood's Magazin Blackwood, Edinburgh Blackwood this month is heavy. There is a total absence of those lighter portions of literature which render it fasci nating to the casual reader ; but to the student, and the man who delights in solid sense, sound reasoning, history, and matter philosophical, much will be found to please and in struct. A report from the Select Committee on Fine Arts will be read with great interest. " European History " re- views the 9th volume of Mr. Alison's work on the History of Europe. " Chapters of Turkish history" are continued. " Homer and Homeridm " will greatly delight the student. " The Canadas " is a review of Sir Richard Bonnycastle's work. It will be read with much interest. " The Canton Expedition and Convention," which winds up the number, is discussed ably and temperately. Tyas's Illustrated Shakspere. Tyas, London Nos. 27 and 28 contain the conclusion of " All's Well that Ends Well," and the commencement of " Romeo and Ju• liet." The illustrations, by Kenney Meadows and Orrir Smith, are executed in the usual style of excellence and taste The Governess. By Madame Riofrey. Authoress, London The Governess contains the usual quantum of cleverly• written, instructive articles, in the French, English, an Italian languages Wandering: and Excursion. in North Wales. By Thomas Roscoe. Wareing Webb, Liverpool. Roscoe's Wanderings in the North of Wales have in the present part come to a conclusion. We may congratulate the talented author upon the graceful manner in which his tasteful, useful, and highly interesting work has been brought out. Its cheapness is remarkable, when we consider the numbers of beautiful engravings that have been presented to the subscribers, and the excellence and copiousness of the literary matter. " Roscoe's Wanderings " will always main tain its position as a standard work. An interest in it can never be abated. It is not one of the ephemeral books of the day, which, when taken out of the distributor's hands, is read, laid aside, and forgotten : on the contrary, it must retain its value so long as the mountains of North Wales shall tower in their majesty, and the valleys smile in the sunlight. We may change—friends may drop around us ; yet the young will spring up, and they " will fill our vacant places," and read, with the same avidity and pleasure as we have done, " the Wanderings of Roscoe." This concluding part contains two sweet engravings, a handsome and comprehensive map of North Wales, indices, a glossary, and more than the usual quantity of readable 4/Bt - tt`P.

During an ascent of Mount Olympus, which we made in 1831, our Turkish guide, anxious, if possible, to curtail the fatigue and tedium of the way, ventured from the track usually followed, and, just as we bad gained the first elbow of the mountain, turned his small Tartar horse on to a ridge of rock of about a couple of feet in width, which was bounded on one side by the mountain, rising almost perpendicularly thousands of feet above our heads, and on the other by a sheer precipice descending to the depth of the valley, from which we had been toiling upwards for two wears hours ; while, as if to render the gloomy prospect still more appal ing, the hoarse echoes of a torrent, which was roaring and tumbling among the masses of rock which had been storm riven from the mighty masses above and hurled into the plain during countless centuries, came to the ear with a sound that seemed almost supernatural. I followed next after the guide, also mounted upon a Tartar * horse, which I rode for the first time; and thus, in " Indian file," each after each, our party (which consisted only of four individuals) slowly, but confiding too entirely in the local knowledge of the guide to feel any very painful alarm, trusted themselves to the steep and narrow way. Surely the fabled bridge El- Sirat, over which the Moslem is to pass to his paradise, must be to the full as ample and convenient a pathway to a spirit, as the road which we were so blindly folloWing proved to tra vellers of flesh and blood. Not a word was spoken, for each had enough to do in looking to his own safety, with the ad ditional conviction that, even when he had done so, it was still contingent on the safety of his companions, as the slight est false step of either of the animals would necessarily so startle the rest, as at once to put all in the same position. As we advanced, the crutch of my saddle was towards the rock, and the wary animal I rode, with extraordinary in stinct, made it a point d'appnie, and leant towards the wall of stone so closely, that, at each step he took, my knee came in contact with the mountain. Thus we proceeded for about two hundred yards, when suddenly the guide stopped his horse, uttered an Inshallah ! which sounded rather like a yell than an ejaculation of piety, and in the next instant informed us that the ridge upon which we stood, or rather hung, was at that point absorbed in the outline of the mountain, and that we could pass no further. It was a frightful morneut, as we sat each as though he had been suddenly stricken into stone. The guide, with true Turkish apathy, or philosophy, or re , ignation—call it what you will—calmly laid the bridle upon the neck of his horse, folded his arms upon his breast, and abandoned himself to his fate. The rest of the party were powerless ; and for fell two minutes, which to me in their duration appeared rather to h ave b een t wo h ours , we remained upon that dizzy path, hopeless and motionless ; when suddenly the horse of the guide, prob a bly b ecom i ng weary of his position, and meeting with no opposition from is rider, turned like a goat upon the narrow ridge, and all r he other animals, as if in obedience to the same instinct, immediately, but with the utmost caution and precision, fol lowed the fearful example. No ! did I live for centuries, I never could forget that moment. The unuttered prayer, which as the Rev. Robert Montgomery beautifully describes it, was "glanced up to heaven " at that instant, was surely the most earnest of my life. My next look was below—there brawled the torrent, and there lay the dark masses of rock, heaving themselves up on all sides like monuments of ruin ; and what increased the terror of the glance was the fact that My foot hung over the chasm as we passed along, and that the heavy folds of my riding dress, inflated by the sharp breezes of the mountain side, were extended far beyond the edge of the rock. I feel that the anecdote, as an anecdote, is nothing; but when I remember the sensation which I experienced as we retraced that mountain path to the spot where we had en tered upon it, I can never sufficiently admire the mercy of the great and beneficent Creator, who endowed the inferior animals with an instinct so marvellous and so beautiful. Nor were we much less indebted to our sagacious animals after our descent from Olympus into the plain, in the midst of the most terrific storm of rain and thunder that I ever ex perienced, either before or since. The vapours from the numerous torrents which intersect the . rock-strewn desert — for such it may fairly be termed—which stretches far away from the foot of the giant mountain, lashed into fury by the tempest, overflowed their channels, and created a dense fog about us, which even the fierce lightnings failed to penetrate —until a moving darkness gathered round us so dense that we could not see beyond our saddles ; while the howling of the storm was answered by the fierce roaring of the bears which infest the neighbourhood, and house themselves among the scattered rocks. All choice of road was of course impossible ; but never theless, our guide, anxious to redeem his error of the morn ing, strove manfully for a weary hour to direct our steps •, nor was it until his hope of success was fairly exhausted that he suggested to us th e expediency of laying the reins on the neck of our several horses, and abandoning ourselves to their guidance, only taking the precaution to keep up a con versation at the pitch of our voices, in order to prevent our se p a rating in the fog. We followed his advice, and ere ano ther half hour had elapsed we found ourselves in the bed of an exhausted torrent, along which the weary animals crept carefully, and which terminated within half a league of the gates of Broussa. ' * These are the animals upon which the couriers perform their rapid and dangerous journeys through Turkey. _ o f f rom DISCOVERY Or IMMEN SE TREASURZ.—A.dvices Chili affirm that the jewels and riches of the Temple Sun hidden more than 300 y ears azo by the Peruvian s from t he the Spaniards, and worth £ 60,000,000 sterling, have been re. covered near the Ceiro des Pasco. Tn ILLNESS or TILE Qt'EEN DOIVAGER.The continued illness of Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, and the cauti ously worded but still alarming bulletins which are daily issued, have created general apprehensions that Her Ma. jesty is in a state which justifies serious apprehensions for the result. We have reason to believe that such is really the case. The symptoms indicative of disease of the lungs, to obtain relief from which Her Majesty visited Germany fo r the benefit of her native air two or three ye ars since, with considerable benefit, have again manifested themselves in a more decided form. The accessions of fever and the fre quent recurrence of a distressing-cough, preventing sleep, so essential to the exhausted patient, have reduced Her Ma jesty's system to a•state of extreme debilitude , We do not snake this statement 'on . slight groUnds, and shall be ham y, on the same authority 'on which we snake it, to announce favourable change,— , ENtriing paper. WI: 'rEll COMPA This action was tried before Justice Wightinan, at the late Liverpool Assizes, when a verdict was found for the plaintiffs, with :C(3362 damages. Mr. Wortley now moved for a rule to show cause why that verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had on the ground of misdirection. Ile said the plaintiffs were eminent machine-makers at Manchester, and had entered into a con tract with the Directors of the Great Western Railway Com pany, to make for them ten engines, with their tenders, of the best materials and workmanship, at the respective prices of £1,830 and By the contract, the plaintiffs were to be held liable for the engines during a month's trial, and while they ran 1,000 miles. The engines were all delivered, were tested according to the contract, and settled for with the ex ception of the above balance. Subsequent to the engines having been accepted, the tire-box of the engine, called the Panther, burst. According to the specification, that part of the engine was to be 7-17ths of an inch thick, but this one was found to be no more than 3-Piths. He did not impute any fraud or carelessness to the plaintiffs, but he was prepared to show at the trial that they had got some copper, which was so Impregnated with some foreign matter, that by some che mical process, it had worn away by the oxygen of the water. He contended at the time that he was at liberty to enter into these particulars, but the counsel for the plaintiff objected that by the terms of the contract the makers were released from all liability the moment the engines were tested by run ning 1,000 miles, and the expiration of a month ; and his lordship, upon being pressed, acceded to this view of the matter. He contended that the meaning of the contract was that the engines should be tested as to their working condition and strength, and the defendants could not be concluded by their acceptance of them, when, as in this case, they found there had been a departure from the terms of the contract and specification. When the engine burst it was found that the boiler had iron fastenings, or rivets, in place of copper ones. His lordship would have allowed him to go into that, but he (Mr. W.) refused to enter upon any single part of his case. He submitted that he was entitled to a rule. The Court was of opinion that, according to the true meaning of the contract, after the engines had been on trial for one month, and had performed 1,000 miles, if they were then perfect and accepted by the company, they were con cluded from all challenge afterwards. The contract was ful filled and the plaintiffs released. They were of opinion that the learned judge was right, and therefore refused the rule. BELFAST QUARTER SESSIONS- —Nov. 1 SWINDLING BY GHOST RAISING George Bradley was indicted for obtaining money from Mary Coburn, of Belfast,' under false pretences. The facts of the case have already been fully before our readers. They are briefly these :—The prisoner's sister (Millikin), already convicted and transported for her share in the offence, so wrought upon the credulity of the prosecutrix, through the agency of a servant girl, her relation, that Lhe made her be lieve her house was haunted by the ghosts of her two deceased brothers—one of whom she pretended to conjure up. She promised to have the spirits " laid," for a certain sum; but postponed the business, from time to time, till she obtained upwards of £2OO from the victim of her schemes. After her feigned death, the prisoner took up the remainder of the plot, and, by pretending that he was entrusted to deliver to Mrs. Coburn a quantity of plate, and other valuables, bequeathed by another brother in New Orleans, also swindled her out of a considerable sum. The facts were folly proved and the prisoner convicted. The barrister, in passing sentence, commented on the enor mity of the offence of which the prisoner had been guilty. One of the justices on the bench had informed him that the prisoner was brother to a woman named Milliken, who had been convicted of a part of the same offence, and who had been sentenced to seven years' transportation. He was dis posed to believe that the prisoner was the more guilty party, and that he had received his full share of the plunder. The other prisoner's sentence was a just one ; but the late lord lieutenant, for reasons which were to him (the learned bar rister) altogether inexplicable—(for he had given his excel lency a report of the case, and represented it as one in which mercy should not be extended)—had, in the exercise of his prerogative, commuted that sentence to eighteen months' imprisonment. However, under the circumstances of the present case, he did not think that a more lenient punish ment would be advisable than that originally passed upon the former culprit. The sentence of the court, therefore, was, that he be transported for seven years. EXTRAORDINARY FORGERIES (From the American Journals received by the Acadia Colonel Monroe Edwards has distinguished himself in a manner to render him an object of interest on both sides of the Atlantic. Therefore, we have throw together the follow ing facts in relation to his past life, dads, and misdoings : Monroe Edwards is a man about 32 years of age, about five feet seven inches and a half in height, rather well made, but not very stout built, a sharp, keen, restless, voluptuous eye, rather a low forehead, and is something of a coxcomb in his dress. He was born in Sbelbyville, Kentucky, where his father resided till recently. His father's name, we believe, was Amos Russell Edwards. The old gentleman removed some two or three years since to Texas, where he died soon after. Of the early life of young Monroe Edwards we have been able to learn but very little, except the rumour of a forgery of his father's name for a trifling amount, and the seduction of a young lady who was at a boarding-school in Kentucky, and who has still a living victim of her shame to nurse and take care of. There are other rumours of forgeries of his in earlier life, but they want authentication. It was after all the hard fighting in Texas was over, and after it was well ascertained that there was no longer any danger to any one who visited that country, that Monroe Edwards con descended to honour it with his presence. Of course he lo cated himself near the seat of government, and, with funds furnished him by his father, continued to make quite a pas sable appearance in tolerably good society there for a time. After the death of his father he evinced signs of wildness and dissipation, which he had before contrived to keep hidden from sight. One of these was an attempt to seduce a young lady in Houston, which nearly cost him his life. Failing in this be took up with a negro wench, and at last, by some means, bought a black girl, 14 or 15 years of age, debauched her, taught her the English language, and christened her Kitty Clover. After this, finding himself getting low in funds, he forged the title deeds to a valuable estate in Texas, and forged a conveyance of the same to some person for about ten thou sand dollars. In this manoeuvre he was detected, and for this he was held to bail, and whilst under bail, as we are in formed, made his escape from Texas, carrying the black girl, Kitty Clover, along with him, dressed in boy's clothes. On his return from Texas, he stayed some time in New Orleans, where he was suspected also of a small forgery on one of the banks, and more than suspected of a liaison with his land lord's wife. For these little foibles he felt himself under the disagreeable necessity of removing his quarters, and soon made the best of his way up the river to Cincinnati. Here an entirely new idea seemed to strike him. He resolved to work on the feelings of the abolitionists, and feeling desirous of travelling to Europe he determined to do so, if possible, at their expense. For this purpose, he manumitted the black girl, Kitty Clover. He also caused a statement to be pub lished in some of the western papers, that Colonel Monroe Edwards had manumitted two hundred of his slaves in Ken- .ucky, and this act of apparent liberality was trumpeted • forth in all the papers on the northern seaboard, and made the subject of laudatory comment at all the abolition lectures in this and other cities and towns, and Colonel Edwards himself held up as a burning and shining light among the woolly heads, and a noble examble for all others to follow. His bait having taken remarkably well, the Colonel the came on to this place, put up at the City Hotel, and lived in fine style with his black boy; who, by the bye, was Kitty Clover still. Soon after he came here he introduced himself to Lewis Tappan as the Colonel Edwards who had liberated 200 slaves in the west ; and he also introduced Kitty Clover to Lewis as his black Tom, who had a twin-sister in New Orleans so like him that when the two were together nobody could tell which from which. Lewis was highly delighted at the inter view, took Edwards and the wench round all the abolition circles of the city, and introduced them to a great number of decent white ladies and sympathising gentlemen. All this was very well while it lasted, and went -. rio further. But by and by the colonel (though where and how he obtained the title of colonel nobody knows), talked of an act of great injustice committed by the Texian government as he said, in keeping some slaves brought direct from Africa, in viola tion of the laws of nations in relation thereto. He said he was going to England to prevail on the British government to make a demand of those slaves. and so forth. He also hinted at being employed as a delegate from the Abolition Society of this city to that of London to see into the case. Finding that his hints were not sufficiently plain or readily acted upon, he came out boldly, and asked for a loan of a sum of money from the society of five thousand dollars, for the purpose of proceeding to England to settle the business. The reason he adduced for wanting so large a sum was the necessity of keeping a carriage and waking a first-rate ap pearance. This modest request startled Lewis Tappan, who then wrote to Cincinnati, and found out that no 200 slaves had been liberated by the colonel. He wrote to Edwards, who replied back angrily ; two or three sharp notes passed ; the colonel demanded all his letters back ; but Lewis, who keeps an office for looking after everybody's busi ness but his own, thought they might come into use some day, and kept them. The colonel then raised the wind somehow, and went to England in one of the Boston steamers, taking Kitty Clover along with him. In London he forged let ters to Lord Brougham, Dan O'Connell, Earl Spancer, and others, in the name of Daniel Webster, &c. He also forged the names of Mr. Van Buren and Mr. Forsyth two letters of introduction. From Brougham he got nothing ; from Dan —the cunning Dan—he got £lO or £20., on the strength of his affection for the negroes, one of whom was then with child by him. From Earl Spencer be got £250. After he arrived here it appears he went south to Phila delphia. The girl, Kitty Glover, lay at our Almshouse, and then followed him to Philadelphia with his and her child. He is suspected of committing other forgeries before those in August, on Brown, Brothers, and Co., and Fletcher and Alexander, and Co. ; but these are all that can be positively traced to him at present. The particulars of the two forger ies, and the method by which lie was arrested, we have al ready stated in detail. But there is one very singular fact which has not been stated. The letter which was sent to him describing the funds forwarded for Fletcher and Co., was dated August 28th, and addressed to Alexandria, D.C. He got this money August 30th ' • and on the Bth of Septem ber he or some one bought a bill of exchange on London for Colonel Monroe Edwards, from the house of Prime, Ward, and King, here, on Baring and Co., London, for £255, the exact sum he borrowed of Lord Spencer. The bill of ex change was found in his trunk. This would appear as if the fellow really had some spark of sensibility left in his heart ; and his apparent desire to provide for the miserable wretch he had seduced, and his mulatto child, caused him to remain in Philadelphia, over Friday and Saturday. He intended to go west and south on Saturday. He was arrested on Satur day. Had he gone he never would have been arrested. There is a vacancy in the representation of Dublin Uni versity, in consequence of the elevation of Mr. Lefroy to a judgeship. FALL OF CHALK ON THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—A great deal of excitement was caused in the City on Thursday morn ing, by the statement that during the night a large fall of chalk had taken place at the Mersthain cutting, about eighteen miles from London, which at present impedes the traffic ; but it was expected in the course of the day a passage would be made for the trains. Fortunately the discovery was made in sufficient time to inform the conductors of both the up and down trains, and not the least accident, therefore, occurred beyond the falling of the chalk. CAPTAIN ELLior —We turn with reluctance to an unfor tunate individual, the chief author of the Chinese war, and the grand manager of our inconclusive operations—who has perhaps by this time slunk into England. Captain Elliot is sufficiently punished by finding himself here, and he may read the opinion which his countrymen and the history of his country have passed upon him in the countenance of the first Englishman he meets. It is not often that a man, whose for tune it has been to act in the name of England, has failed so signally to accomplish the great ends for which the force of this nation was placed in his grasp ; but the late superinten dent found the bolts too heavy for him.

E. Harvey, to show by what authority he claimed to he an alderman of the borough of Liverpool. Mr Harvey had been elected an alderman on October 29th, by a majority of the Council, but was not then qualified to fill that office. Under sections 27 and 28 of the Municipal Corporation Act, no one is qualified to be elected an Alderman, who is not entitled to be on the. burgess list, and by section 9 no one can be a member of the corporation who is not enrolled on the burgess roll Mr. Harvey was not, at the time of his supposed election, on the burgess roll or list then in force. The burgess roll then in force was the same that was made in 1839, as the re• vision in 1840 was not completed. Mr. Harvey's name was not on the list of 1839, nor had he claimed, or become enti tled, to be on that list by being rated for property within the borough. Mr. llarvey might be on the burgess list made this year, but that would not avail to qualify him on October 29th ; and some doubt existed as to his title to be on the present list.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—This DAY. (From Messrs. R—MAKIN & SONS' Circular.) The numerous fleet of vessels into this port towards the end of last week and a considerable augmentation since, fur nish a superabundant supply of Wheat, consisting of 31,355 qrs from London, nearly all foreign duty paid, 9817 from other English ports, 10,062 from Ireland, with 1747 thence into Runcorn, and 9188 qrs direct from abroad, constituting a total of 62,169 qrs, and exceeding the largest importation of this Grain into Liverpool in any single week for many 'ears past Of other kinds of Grain, as well as Flour and Oatmeal, we have also to report very bountiful supplies, the particulars of which will be found on reference to our import note sub joined. The magnitude of these arrivals, the continuance of fine weather, the reaction in London, and a very moderate atten dance of buyers at our market to-day, caused increased dul ness in every department of the trade. Upon a very limited demand, all descriptions of English, Irish and foreign NI , heat were freely offered at a decline of 4d ; and some parcels were forced off at fid per 70 lbs under the terms of this day week ; notwithstanding, several holders, less urgent, refused to sub mit to this abatement. Oats and Oatmeal, continuing to meet a very lingering sale, the former receded Id. per 451b5., and the latter Gd. to 9d. per 2401b5. below the currency of this day se'nuight. English, Irish, and Foreign Flour, being in equally slow request, must be noted is per sack, and is per brl. cheaper. The best roundland Malting Barley realised 40s to 41s per quarter, but grinding samples were very little noticed, at a reduction of 3d to 4d per GOlbs.—Malt, Beans, and Pease moved off sparingly, at late prices.

T n EDTTIO Siandard Qffic,e, Four o'clo MEETING OF THE TOWN COUNCIL ELECTION OF A CONSERVATIVE MAYOR, AND EIGHT CONSERVATIVE ALDERMEN. The council met this morning, at twelve o'clock, for the election of mayor in the place of Mr. Thomas Bolton, anti of eight aldermen, the election of the committees, and the transaction of the usual business appertaining to the first meeting after the municipal election. Every member of the council was present. Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE rose and said, before proceeding with the order of the day, he would venture to draw the attention of the council to what he considered to he a ques tion of privilege, inasmuch as it related to the election of an alderman just previous to the late municipal elections. He considered that this was one of the Questions which ought to have precedence over every other subject in their delibera tions. He could not see Mr. Robert Ellison Harvey occu pying the seat of an alderman in that room without renew ing the protest which he had felt it his duty to make at the close of the last meeting, upon the ground of ineligibility in the candidate. It would be for the Mayor or the Town-- clerk to show the grounds upon which they had ventured to induct Mr. Harvey to an office in which he had incurred penalties by acting. But it would require a strong opinion indeed to induce him (Mr. G. H. Lawrence) to wave the opinion be had formed ; it would require very strong grounds to justify him in coining to any other than the common-sense conclusion that though he was ineligible to serve as a burgess or to vote as a town councillor he should be qualified to vote and occupy a seat as alderman. He could not believe there could be such an anomaly in the reform act as that, that there could be such a distinction as he had heard alleged between the name being upon a list which had never been revised, and the biirgess roll, from which alone the aldermen were to beelected. With Mr. Harvey he had no fault to find; but he thought this council was bound to see that the title of each member to his seat was without suspicion ; and it was not to be left to par ties outoldoors to bring the questions before their considera tion. It was for the council, and for the councilalone if they had done wrong in any instance to set the matter right. With these expressions of his sentiments be begged to call upon the Town Clerk to explain the grounds upon which he justified the course which had been adopted, and io point out to the council the mode by which lie could purge the seat from the doubt which hung over it. Mr. Alderman EARLE believed the Town-clerk had taken a legal opinion on the question, and that it was in favour of Mr. Harvey's right to his seat. He suggested that this opi nion be read. Mr. Alderman EVANS bad heard with great regret the unnecessary speech of Mr. Lawrence. 'He could not help conceiving that it was in a great degree tinged with an acri mony that he had not expected from Mr. Lawrence. The matter was one of pure law, and he thought Mr. Lawrence had most unnecessarily given it a kind of undue colouring to the matter as if there was a collusion, and as if a great and scandalous wrong had been inflicted. The MAYOR, as the question of privilege had been raised, thought it necessary to state the part he had taken in this matter. He was not quite sure, though he was under the impression, at least, that the Town-clerk was of opinion that this question would have been best raised after the election of the new Mayor. (Cries of " No.") If it were the plea sure of the council the question should be raised whilst lie occupied that seat ; he was quite satisfied, but the Town clerk was impressed with the opinion that the first and only business he (the Mayor) had to do, was to preside till the election of the new mayor. The MAYOR asked whether it was the pleasure of the council to proceed now to the election of mayor, and after wards give any member an opportunity of bringing forward the election of Mr. Harvey ? Mr. H. LAWRENCE,--it is understood that we receive his vote in the election of mayor under protest. The MAYOR.—I should rather that that were not men tioned at all. (Cries of " No, no.") Mr. 11. LAWRENCE.—No, certainly not. If we mean to insist upon it, that he is not properly elected, now is the time. The TOWN-CLERK said the first course to-day was the election of mayor, it being understood that a protest was made against the legality of Mr. Harvey's seat. When the proper time came, after the election of mayor, he should be ready to give every explanation in his power. (Hear, hear.) The MAYOR.—Then the first business before us is the election of Mayer. If any member has a gentleman to pro pose, I shall now be happy to hear him. Mr. ROBERTSON GLADSTONE then rose, and said, Mr. Mayor, I rise with feelings of very great gratification to propose Mr. John Shaw Leigh as a fit and proper person to fill the high and important office of Mayor of this borough for the ensuing year. In doing so, I am well aware that the oppor tunity is afforded me of making some remarks as to the great change which has taken place since some of us last met in this room. I allude particularly to the present relative po sition of the two parties in this Council ; but 1 purposely abstain from making such observations, believing they are not in themselves necessary, and that they are not calculated to promote that good feeling and harmony which it is so de sirable to see in all the proceedings of the Council. (Hear.) I have, sir, already upon a previous occasion had the honour of proposing Mr. Leigh as a candidate for the chair you now fill. To most, I may say to every member of this coun cil Mr. Leigh's qualifications and character are well known. (Hear," hear.) It is fortunate for the town that such an in dividual can be selected, for I may truly say that his well earned reputation is indeed most ably sustained by his own individual high honour, unquestionable integrity and standing in the town ; and that in venturing to name him as a candidate upon the present occasion, I am confident, that it his ap pointment should be confirmed by the council, it will be one that will confer honour upon the council, and at the same time be most acceptable to the community at large. With these remarks I beg leave to propose that Mr John Shaw Leigh be elected mayor of this borough. (Hear, and loud applause.) Mr. CHRISTOPHER BUSHELL.-Mr. Mayor, it became my duty last year to second the nomination of Mr. John Shaw Leigh, he having then been proposed by my friend Mr. Gladstone. We did this, last Year, not with the same hope that we have this year of electing him to the high office you now hold Sir, I quite agree with the explanations which have fallen from my friend Mr. Gladstone, as to there being no necessity whatever for entering into any detail with re gard to the position we now occupy in this council. The town has determined that, and therefore it is unnecessary to repeat it here. lam equally. anxious with my friend, Mr. Gladstone, that there should be no observations made which would tend in the least degree to excite irritable feelings, and I trust that the future proceedings of this council will be characterized by that desire for the general good, which can never, by posibility, be promoted by any of those exhibitions of differences which have unfortunately sometimes pervaded this Council, (hear, hear.) In seconding the nomination of Mr. John Shaw Leigh, I believe I am seconding the nomi nation of a gentleman, who, if elected, will hold the scale with firmness, and who will incline the balance to the side of justice and strict impartiality, (hear,) with these observa tions, I beg to second the nomination, (applause.) The MAYOR—Has any other member of the council a gentleman to propose ? No answer being returned, The MAYOR said, I then declare that Mr. John Shaw Leigh . is unanimously elected Mayor. (Great applause.) Mr. LEIGH was then conducted to the chair, by his mover and seconder, amidst much applause. The TOWN-CLERK having administered the usual declara tion, and the necessary forms having been completed, The MAYOR said,—Gentlemen, having gone through the formal ordeal of assuming the high position which you have been so kind as unanimously to impose upon me on this oc casion, 1 cannot allow the opportunity to pass without ex pressing sincerely the feelings I entertain for the expressions of that sentiment which you have now evidenced in placing me in the position in which I now stand. I can say I shall feel it my duty to act to the best of my discretion in every occur rence that may take place, both as the chairman of this as sembly and in my judicial duties in connexion with the office you have just now placed me in. I do hope that the same unanimity which has been now shown to a great extent in this room may be evinced in all our transactions through the approaching year, which, of course, it will be my strong de sire to promote to the utmost of my power. I beg leave, gentlemen, to thank you most sincerely for the honour you have conferred upon me. (Applause.) The aldermen whose tenure of office now terminated then rose to retire : in doing so, Mr. JOSEPH HORNET said—Mr. Mayor, good morning. (Laughter.) The MAYOR.—I am very sorry to lose sight of you, Mr. Hornby. (Renewed laughter.) ELECTION OF ALDERMEN. The council then proceeded to the election of eight alder men in the place of those just retired. The following is a list of the gentlemen proposed, and the number of votes for each. William Nicol Edmund Molyneux Thomas Chilton.— J. B. Moore R. S. Crooke J. H. Turner Raymond Houghton Richard Griffith .. T. Booth Geo. Holt R. Benn T. Blackburn R. Roskell J. Hornby ... H. Hornby R.

A memorial from the owners and occupiers of houses in Bridgewater-street, was read, and referred to the Finance Committee. CONFIRMATIONS OF PROCEEDINGS. The proceedings of the last special council, and of the se veral committees since that meeting were then read and con firmed. APPOINTMENT OF MR. HARVEY AS ALDERMAN It being understood that the Town-clerk had taken the opinion of counsel on this question, he was called upon by several members to state the result. He stated, in effect, that after the election of Mr. Harvey, by a majority of thirty-three to thirty, and the Council had broken up, Mr. G. H. Lawrence, accompanied by several other mem bers, came in and protested against the election, on the ground that his name was not in the burgess list at the time being. The objection was that his (Mr. H.'s) name was not in the list for 1839, and as the list for 1840 was not re vised throughout, and the old list of 1839 fallen back upon, that list therefore remained in force till Ist November, 1841, and Mr. Harvey was elected on the 30th Oct., while the list for 1841, in which his name appeared could not come into legal operation till the November following. It was there fore contended that Mr. Harvey was not duly qualified to sit as alderman. He (the Town-clerk) thought at the time the objection was fatal, and had he been then asked his opinion, he should so have stated it. There were two lists required —one by the overseers, to be completed in August, called the burgess list—and another, revised by the mayor and assessors, coming into force on the first November, called the burgess roll. Th e op i n i o n, however, which he had first entertained against Mr. Harvey's eligibi lity, was considerably shaken by his attention being called, by a barrister, to the words " entitled to be (at the time of election) on the Burgess List", the other being called the Burgess Roll. He had finally been led to the conclusion, from several clauses of the act, the words referred to the overseers' list, and he therefore had formed an opinion favourable to the election in question. He then stated that he had drawn out the case of Mr. Harvey as clearly os possible, and submitted it to eminent counsel, Sir Frederick Pollock, Attorney -General. Mr. Starkie, - and Mr. Crompton. Their reply was, "We are of opinion that Mr. Harvey was entitled to be on the burgess list at the time he was elected alderman." _ _ ..- - A long and rather stormy discussion then took place as to whether the Council should proceed to have the question decided in the Court of Queen's Bench, or should leave the matter to rest on the opinions obtained. f; - ,(1. if. Y4WV rAD*ed, Til4 the 4401 , he .tovyn-cler};, to take farther lead opitnen4 upon it, 4pd that hp report ppon the same to the Council at a future day. le wished it:to be understood, however, that in any ulterior proceedings that might be taken, the eNpente;:, i;ip:uld not be thrown upon Mr. Harvey, but be taken out of the corporate funds. Mr. Aikin, Mr. Evans, Mr. Earle, Mr. Mellor, Mr. Bol ton, and others spoke in favour of leaving Mr. Harvey in possession of his seat, vk ithout any legal proceedings being taken. Mr. G. H. Lawrence, Mr. 11. Lawrence, Mr. Gladstone, in favour of inquiry. Mr. HARVEY stated that whatever proceedings were in stituted against him out of doors he should retain his seat; but if the council instituted proceedings, he should refrain from attending or voting until the decision was obtained. Finally, MR. ALDERMAN EVANS moved as an amend ment that after the legal opinions taken, the council do not consider it necessary to paoceed further in the case of Mr. Harvey." The votes, were then called for, but betore they were taken, the amendment was withdrawn. Mr. G. H. Lawrence's motion was then put, and car ried in a show of hands by a very large majority. THE MAYOR'S ALLOWANCE On the motion of MR. HOLMES, seconded by MR. HODGSON, the Mayor's allowance was fixed at the usual amount, namely £2OOO, subject to adeduction of £706, payable to the Town Hall Establishment Committee. QUARTERLY MEETINGS The quarterly meetings of the council were appointed for the first Wednesdays in February, May. and August. APPOINTMENT OF ANN UAL OFFICERS The officers who are annually appointed, as well as those who held office during pleasure, were next appointed. No change whatever was made. STANDING ORDERS On the motion of Mr. Birkett, seconded by Mr. Cooper, the standing orders were ordered to be printed, and taken into consideration at the next meeting, the existing orders to continue in force in the meantime. There was a very short supply of Sheep at market this morning, and a moderate one of horned Cattle. Of Calves and Pigs there was about an average supply. There were very few buyers at market, and trade was exceedingly heavy; for, notwithstanding the num ber offered being so short, the dead meat market was overstocked compared with the demand,' Inferior Beef realized 3s 4d per stone. Pork was 2d higher. Veal 4d lower. In Mutton and the finer sorts of Beef no variation from last Monday's prices. A large proportion of all kinds of cattle remained unsold. The stock trade was not brisk. (Per stone of 81b., sinking the offal.) APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEES Finance Committee.

Manx and Scotch Cups Is iod to 2s 1(1 per gOlb. The demand for the growth of our own immediate neighbourhood is a little improved, and prices generally a shade higher. Pink Eyes 2s 2d to 2s 5d ; Cups 2s to 2s 2d ; Short Tops Is Bid to 2s ; Cattle Is 3d to Is 6d per Solos. Turnips 245 6d to 305 65, and Carrots 52s to 535 per ton.

Thu average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, computed from the returns made in the week ending the 2nd day of Nov.. 1841, is 35s Aid per cwt., exclusive of the Import Duties. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, Nov We hare for this day's market a good supply of all grain except Barley, which is but moderate, particularly of fine mailing qualities. The trade for the best new and old Wheat was slow and dull, at last week's prices, whilst inferior parcels were offering at Is decline, without finding. purchasers. Good malting Barley sold readily at an advance of is per quarter, and grinding fully supported late prices. Oats met a better demand at the same rates, but Beans were dull and somewhat lower. Shelling unaltered. SMITHFIELD MARKET, Nov. 5 LIVERPOOL PROVISION -MARKET, OCT. __B, So very limited has the supply, of fresh parcels of fine Butter, become, that an advance in price of fully 2s per cwt. is easily ob tainable for such. This fact, naturally directs the consumers at tention to the middling descriptions, which are certainly in better repute, though not at higher rates. Select parcels of Belfast and other Butters equally good, command to-day loos per cwt. Ban bridge, Ballymoney, &c. 88s to 945. Upon the whole the market presents a very buoyant appearance. Beef, Pork and Bacon are without alteration. LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, Nov. 5 Sugar.—The Trade having supplied themselves pretty freely during the past few weeks, the demand has been more limited, and the sates of B. P are confined to 350 hhds., at steady prices. 1000 bags Bengal have also been disposed of, at 64s to /74s per cwt. In Foreign no sales are reported. Nothing done in Bonded Refined ; but 100 puns. Treacle, for immediate delivery, were sold at 13 per cwt. The only sale reported in Molasses is 150 puns. Trinidad at 25s per cwt. Coffee.—The sales of Plantation have been to a fair extent, comprising about 260 casks of Jamaica, which brought steady prices. Nothing done in Foreign. No sales of Cocoa, Ginger or Pimento. 500 bags black Pepper have been disposed of at aid to 4ild per lb. Rice.—There is a good inquiry, and 1100 bags Bengal sold at 13s to 13s gd per cwt. B. P. Rum.—The demand is still confined to the first qualities, which being very scarce, the sales are limited to so puns. Demerara, of coarse quality, 30 to 33 per cent. 0. P., at 3s 5d to 35 7d per gallon. Tea.—There has been a fair demand, and a large business done at previous rates. . For Indigo there have been a few small orders from Consumers, and about 20 chests sold. Small sales are also reported in Lac Dye, Shell Lac and Cutch. About 90 tons South American Mother of Pearl Shells sold at Xl4. Saltpetre is on the decline, and Nitrate of Soda is 6d to Is lower; the sales of the former are 1650 bags, at 26s to 30s, and of the latter 400 bags. at 23s to 23s 6d. Dyewoods.—The sales of Logwood consist of small parcels to the Trade, at previous rates ; 30 tons Cuba Fustic are reported at 5s ; 50 tons Lima Nicaragua Wood at £132,s 6d to £l4 ; 20 tons Sapan Wood at £lO 12s 6d to £lO 1;s 6d per too; and 60 tons Bar wood, price not mentioned. At the close of last week a small lot of Turpentine, (400 brls.) of very good quality, brought 125 10d to 12s 11d, but for 1700 brls. offered at the same time 120 being the highest bid, they were withdrawn, the holders requiring 12s 6d, which not being obtainable, the parcel has not been sent into store. No sales reported in Tar. Montreal Pot Ashes are rather higher ; 318 was accepted at the end of last week, since when 315 6d to 31s lid has been obtained, and holders now generally ask 325. Pearl Ashes also have improved, as, although 32s 6d to 335. Hides. —About 400 salted River Plate have been sold this week at late prices. At the public sale of East India Kips on Tuesday, about 27,000 were sold at fair rates; good dry salted brought gid for sonnd, and 7d to lid for Ist rubbed, good brined g/d to 10}d for sound, and 7d to 74d for Ist rubbed, ordinary dry and brined 7id for sound, and 61d for Ist rubbed ; 386 salted Horse Hides brought 7s 86 each; 178 dry salted Jamaica at 5d to 64d, and 2000 Parabia Hides at td to did for sound, and 4j6 for Ist damp. Tobacco.— The sales this week amount to 250 hhds., of which about 100 Virginia leaf and 50 stemmed have been taken for Ireland. Last month the entire sales were 1300 hhds. The whole import of the season is now sampled, and the market is consequently well sup plied. The quotations are supported. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 5 Flat and tame as our market has been throughout the week, to-day it is, if possible, much more so ; very few buy - down, and the business does not exceed 1500 to 2000 bales. The weekly sales are 18,590 bales, of which 200 bales are on speculation, and 1000 to export. COTTON MARKET, NOVEMBER a We continue so dull and spiritless in our market that it is really difficult tc, give any other description of it. The demand is so moderate that the quantity sold on Saturday was only 2800, and to-day 2500 to 3000 bales, at gradually easier prices. The trade merely supply their immediate wants. so that we cannot at present calculate upon any improvement in our market. COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT The dullness noticed last week has continued throughout the present, and prices have still a declining tendency the common and middling qualities of American have given way fully Id per lb ; Surat, although in fair demand, and'apparently increasing in con. sumption, has participated in the decline; 1710 bales were offered by auction to.day, but withdrawn for want of bidders; the market closed with a languid appearance, and there is no disposition at present on the part of the Trade to purchase beyond their im mediate wants. 700 American and 500 Surat have been taken for speculation, and 500 American and 700 Surat for export. 800 Sea Island and 400 Stained are declared for auction on Friday next.
