Wanderings and Excursions in North Wales. By Thomas Roscoe. Wareing Webb, Liverpool. Roscoe's Wanderings in the North of Wales have in the ,resent part come to a conclusion. We may congratulate talented author upon the graceful manner in which his 'ul, useful, and highly interesting work has been brought Its cheapness is remarkable, whe❑ we consider the )ers of beautiful engravings that have been presented to ibscribers, and the excellence and copiousness of the " Roscoe's Wanderings " will alway s main tain its position as a standard work. An interest in it can ated. It is not one of the ephemeral books of lay, which, when taken out of the distributor's hands, s read, laid aside, and forgotten : on the contrary, it must retain its value so long as the mountains of North Wales 1 tower in their majesty, and the valleys smile in the We may change—friends may drop around us ; oung will spring up, and they " will fill our vacant and read, with the same avidity and pleasure as we done, " the Wanderings of Roscoe." never be a unlight 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 Mr. Roscoe's tour through the Southern portion of the principality will shortly make its appearance in a style cor responding with the present work. It is announced also publisher has prepared an appropriate binding for it publication, which can be procured from him. ASCENT OF MOUNT OLYMPUS PERILOUS POSITION. (From the Churchman.) Mount Olympus, which we made in i, our Turkish guide, anxious, if possible, to curtail the nd tediuti, of the way, ventured_ from the track usually followed, and, just as we had 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 Itad 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. _ Asw rnek dvaneed, the crutch - of my saddle was towards the and the wary animal I rode, with extraordinary in stinct, made it a point d'appuie, 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 as that the ridge upon which we stood, or rather hung, was it that point absorbed in the outline of the mountain, and could pass no further. It was a frightful moment, that we COURT OF CIiEQUEI bilAtik% AND OTIII:ItS V. TIIE GREAT WESTLRN COMPANY This action was tried before Mr: Justice Wightman, at the late. Liverpool Assizes, w h en a ver di ct was f oun d f or the plaintiffs, with £662 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 plaintiff's 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 X 1,850 and £450. 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-l7ths 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 be 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 relatior, that she 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 fully 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.

It is reported that Mr. Gladstone, M.P., is about to pro ceed to Spain, with the view of opening negociations for a commercial treaty with that country. LATE HAYMAKING.—The novelty of haymaking in No vember is now going forward in a field belonging to Mr. Jos. Page, opposite the' Basin, Gloucester. The Tyne llferenry tells a very likely story of a child at Barnardcastle, being christened " Richard" soon after it was born, and of its being discovered in about a week after to be a girl.

The slaughter-house system of immense returns, and the smallest calculated profits, is now paralysing and destroying the merchants and manufacturers of the United Kingdom, and. pauperising and starving the labouring population.— Oastler's Fleet Papers. HERRING FISHERY ON THE FRENCH COAST.—A large French lugger entered Dieppe harbour on Wedncsdry, that had been engaged in the herring fishery. In addition to her hold being filled, the fish were piled up to the top of her bul warks. The cargo was said to fetch nearly 5,000 francs. DrrnuN UNIVERSITY.—SeveraI candidates are already spoken of as likely to succeed Dr. Lefrov in the representa tion of Dublin University. Serjeant Jackson, G. A. Hamil ton, Esq., and the Hon. James King, are all named. In the event of Serjeant Jackson being elected, Lord Bernard will probably be the new member for Bandon. The Rev. Mr. Marshall, who lately retired from the mi nistry of the Tolbooth Church, Edinburgh, will, it is re ported, present himself, at the approaching ordination of the Bishop of Durham, as a candidate for the Holy Order of Deacon ; the Rev. Gentleman receiving his title from the Rev. Dr. Gilly, as one of the curates of Norham. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC HIERARCHY.—There has been no contradiction published, or any denial of, the statement put forth by a protestant Galway paper to the effect that Dr. Caen, titular Bishop of Elphin, had given in his adhesion the present government. The Limerick Chronicle states that there is another Roman Catholic prelate in the south of Ireland who has declared himself as decidedly favourable to the new order of things. SHOCKING SUICIDE IN SADDLEWORTH WORKHOUSE. — At an early hour on Thursday morning, Oct. 24, one of the inmates of Saddleworth workhouse, named James Buckle, a man from 40 to 50 years of age, was discovered with his throat cut almost from ear to ear. He was found in the privy with a razor near him ; he died almost immediately after the discovery. The unfortunate man had been placed in the workhouse only on the previous evening. —Leeds In telligencer. AN EX-JOINT OF THE TAlL.—Edward Ruthven, ex M.P. for the county of Kirkdale, was on Saturday last discharged as an insolvent. He admitted in the course of his examina tion that he qualified to sit as a member of parliament through the aid of friends, who would do the same for him again. The commissioner remarked that it was well known thet persons, without having any property themselves, were able to obtain qualifications to entitle them to sit in parlia ment. REv. DANIEL M'AFEE.—Many of our readers will be glad to learn that the eldest son of Mr. M'Afee has been appointed by Sir Robert Peel to a clerkship in the depart ment of the stamps and taxes. The appointment is the more complimentary as it was not made at random, but after those inquiries which indicate a determination that, in ad vancing the interests of the individual, the interests of the public are not overlooked. The letter conveying the infor mation to Mr. M'Afee was in Sir Robert's hand.—Cork Constitution. AND MunortemrThe otiobrated chasm in the range of the Mendip Hills, known as the Ched dar Cliffs, which are situated about four miles east of the great turnpike-road leading from Bristol to Bridgwater, and about sixteen miles from the former, was on Monday week the scene of a brutal murder and robbery, committed on a farmer named Baker, who occupied Highnet Farm, near Cheddar. It olipears that in the afternoon of that day he left his house, with some corn to be ground at a neighbouring mill, the way to which was through the cliffs. He took a sovereign with him, from which the miller gave him change, on the corn being ground. Before dusk Mr. Baker was dis covered lying in the road in an insensible state, his body and head dreadfully bruised, and robbed of his money. The road through the cliffs, which at some places rise to the gigan tic height of 400 feet, is comparatively but seldom passed by carriages ; and this loneliness, as well as the winding nature of the road, which prevents the view of objects approaching until they are very near, points out this spot as too favour able for the commission of such a crime; while it is well known that the road is principally used by persons having money transactions at places in the vicinity. It appears from a comparison of the period when the deceased left the mill, with the time when he was found, (by a person who was returning from Paulton coalpits,) that the crime was perpetrated in broad daylight, about three o'clock in the afternoon ! Mr. Baker was conveyed home, and surgical aid procured, but he died after a few hours of acute suffering. The murderers are suspected to be two persons in the dress of navigators or railway men, for whom search is being made. —Hereford Journal. V ROMIFAN THE PORT OF MANCHESTER ! — There was another arrival of merchandise at Victoria Bridge, on Tuesday, which is thus graphically and minutely described by a contemporary print :—One of the Old Quay Company's flats, the Lingard, Captain Thomas Darwell, of 60 tons' burthen, lying at Run corn, commenced on Tuesday morning, at an early hour, to take in a cargo of oats from the Francis, Captain Powell, which had arrived here the night before from Dublin, with 864 barrels of oats, the bill of lading dated the 27th October. The Lingard having taken in about 30 tons of oats, started from Runcorn at twenty minutes past two o'clock, a.m., for this port, reaching Hollins Green about seven o'clock, and Throstle Nest about a quarter past eleven o'clock in the fore noon. There she remained till the little steamer Jack Sharp arrived from her own voyage, to tow her up to Manchester. The steamer arrived about two o'clock in the afternoon, and immediately proceeded to tow the Lingard towards this town, passing in succession beneath the Regent-road and Liverpool Railway Bridges ; the New Bailey Bridge, which was crowded with spectators; the Blackfriars Bridge, through the centre arch of which she proceeded steadily and slowly, and piloted her charge in safety to the Victoria Bridge, amidst the loud cheers of the crowds of people on the bridges and upon the intended wharf of the Old Quay Company, and the firing of salutes from six small carronnades on board the Lingard. The view of this water procession was a little obscured by the dense fog which .overhung the river during the whole day ; but when the crowds assembled on the wharf and the Victoria Bridge first caught sight of the line of boats just beyond the Blackfriars Bridge, it was seen that there were three vessels, the steamer towing the other two ; and, when these vessels arrived below the Victoria Bridge; it was found that the first of the two sailing vessels was the Lingard, Old Quay Com pany's fiat, with her cargo of corn ; and that the second was a vessel of the New Quay Company, the Mary, which, haviug just arrived at the time the Jack Sharp was towing the Lingard above the New Bailey Bridge, was connected by a towing line, and so brought up the rear. The Mary had a cargo of cotton, in bales, piled upon deck as well as under hatches, probably about thirty tons altogether.—Manchester courier. EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY. — We understand that Sir Frederick Smith, the government inspector, was recently here, and examined minutely the state of the works along the line from end to end. We have not as yet seen any official report published, but we understand he was highly pleased with the substantial manner in which the finished portions of the works were constructed. With regard to the time of completing and opening the railway to the public, it is understood that Sir Frederick considered it likely that the whole works, including the great weinstone cutting at the Croyridge, might be ready for traffic by the middle of Novem ber. From the energy with which the unfinished parts are pushed forward, we have little doubt that this might be the case with average weather; but, taking into account the un favourable season which we have had from the begining of August down to the present time—certainly the most rainy season that has been experienced in this part of the world for many years—our wonder is rather that so much has been accomplished, than that something yet remains to do. Should November, however, prove more auspicious, it is expected that by the beginning of December the wishes of the public will be realised. One advantage, at least—and that not a small one—has resulted from the wetness of the season. Much of the subsiding and slipping of the embankments, which might otherwise have happened at a future period, has already taken place, and the consolidation of the works has thus greatly matured before the line is opened for traffic. Upon the whole, therefore, considering the increased security to the public, the delay is not so much to be regretted ; be cause whatever tends to inspire greater confidence in the com munity in the safety of the line, will ultimately be for the true interest and benefit of the railway.—Glasgow Courier. &biliptitg lincelligenrc -- ea --- FRIDAY, NovEmuEu s,—Wind South A 4. it WE I).- Henrietta, Luchies, from Rotterdam—Virginia, from Lisbou—Eupliernia, Jamieson, from Newfoundland—Mermaid, Pepperell, from Cephalonia—Nancy, Miller, from Bordeaux—Stadt Barth, Shin, from Danzic—Kate & Jane, Jacobs, and Petrus Lu dovicus, Kagsis, from Rotterdam—Ambassador, from Odessa— Peri, Daw, from Denia—Pet, Shotten, from Bordeaux—Fortuna, from Dordt—and Virginia, from Lisbon.

It is full of incident and " situation," as the iatists have it. The description of the conduct of the rs in the cells, while Newgate was burning, is vivid and !resting. The account of the attack of the mob listillery on Holborn-hill--which we some months pated would be narrated, being one of the most upon t rdinary 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.

The rest of the party were powerless ; and for full two minutes, which to me in their duration appeared rather to have been two hours, we remained upon that dizzy path, hopeless and motionless ; when suddenly the horse of the guide, probably becoming weary of his position, and meeti ng w ith no opposition from his rider, turned like a goat upon the narrow ridge, and all the 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 "glanced up to heaven " at that instant, was surely most earnest of my life. My next look was below—there it, was sled 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 .dge 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 1 ever ex- perienced, either before or since. The vapours from the numerous torrents which intersect the rock-strewn desert— ich 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, cur 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 the 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 separating in the fog.

TH ILLNESS OF THE QUEEN DOWAGER..--The continued illness of Her Majesty the Q ueen Dowager, and the ca ously worded but still alarming, bulletins which are d a il y issued, have created genera l a pp rehensions 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 for the benefit of her native air two or three years since, with considerable benefit, ',lave 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 make this statement on slight grounds, and shall be happy, on the same authority on which we make it, to announce a favourable ehange.—Evening paper. 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 lite, deeds, 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 Shelbyville, 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 trilling 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 he 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, lie 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 ha 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 tucky, 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 no 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 making a first-rate up petirance. 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 Spencer, 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 he got £250. After lie 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 he 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 Loudon 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 ese 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.

FALL OF CHALK ON THE BRIGIITON RA ILWAY.—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 Merstham 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 anti down trains, and not the least accident, therefore, occurred beyond the falling of the chalk. CAPTAIN Ewor —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. Nevertheless, while the Emperor of China either saws his disgraced slaves in halves or transports them beyond the celestial confines of the flowery land, Lord Palmersto nprea has, with true consideration for fallen greatness, last of the Elliots in thePred an appropriate retreat for the republichy the o o l r de r s e t x . a p s e . o p upon pleni potentiary was outwitted lat e earth we trust he may be more fortunate in his negotiations with the newest. FIRE AT THE TOWER.—Our contemporary. the Dublin Evening Packet, contains a curious statement, to the effect, "that the Rev. Sir HARCOURT LEES, Bart., distinctly stated, on information peculiarly his own, and which he has repeatedly declared had never yet deceived him, that the next attempt at fire after those on the Houses of Parliament, the' Royal Exchange, &c., would be directed against the Tower." This production was many months since published in the columns of the Evening Packet, and, at all events, furnishes a coincidence not a little curious. MENAI STRAITS.—A meeting was held on Wednesday week, at Bangor, to form a company, consisting exclusively of persons connected with the counties of Anglesey and Car narvon, for the purpose of purchasing the iron steamer Glow-worm, to ply between Liverpool and the Meuai Straits. The design is to establish a proprietary closely connected with the Principality. It was decided to purchase the Glow worm for £6,500, but only 64 £25 shares were taken on Wednesday. Of these 20 were assigned to Mr. Assheton Smith, the present owner of the Glow-worm, 12 to the Hon. D. Pennant, 8 to Sir Richard Bulkeley, and 4 to Mr. Bul keley Hughes, M.P. On Tuesday night an inquest was held, at Cambridge, on the body of Abner Richard Harrison, Esq., an undergraduate of Queen's College, in that University, who was drowned on the morning of that day in the river near Jesus Green Sluice. Deceased was rowing in a " funny," and, owing to the strong current caused by the flood, his boat became unmanageable ; he jumped out, and was carried over the water-fall. The jury returned a verdict of "accidental death," deodand on the boat 40s. ; and at the same time expressing a hope that the letters of boats would be more cautious in letting their boats when the state of the river rendered its navigation perilous. The deceased was a native of Leeds. DUST MAHOMED.—We are sorry to hear that Dost Ma homed is labouring under a severe attack of fever, and is reported to have been delirious the greater part of yesterday. Many of the persons composing the suite of the Ex-Ameer, together with his son, Hyder Khan, have also suffered from the same cause. The climate of Bengal at this unhealthy season appears to be as little congenial to the Affghan con stitution as to that of Europeans. No casualty has yet oc curred, and we hope that the Dost will soon be able to take his departure for Loodianah, as he intended bfore his ill ness. He-has not yet, however, exhausted the " sights" of the city of palaces, one other exhibition, at least, of the powers of European science being in preparation to astonish him. As it is one in which the very elements are subjected to our controul, and likewise one of the greatest triumphs of recent times, we trust he will be able to witness it. —Calcutta Star. INFLUENCE OF CONSERVATISM ON TRADE.—For the last thirty years Dublin was never so full at this period of the year as it is at the present. There is bustle in our streets, business in our shops—the labourer at the loom in full employment, and the manufacturer of every description i s busily engaged in making preparations for the approaching season. Houses of the first class are in great request—the rents we learn from the brokers have advanced twenty-five per cent—those long uninhabited are cleaning up—several families are coming to town, and we shall reaily have " a winter in Dublin" worthy of a great city, and suited in every way to the metropolis of a kingdom. The blessings of a good government—one based on moderation and firmness—the presence of a splendid court, conducted with brilliancy and magnificence, and the restoration of peace and the re-estab lishment of order—the sure effect of an impartial but vigorous administration of the laws—combine in rendering the Vice loyalty of Lord de Grey one of happy omen to Ireland—the first that affords the hope of security to life and property.— Dublin Evening Mail. The Times has been so cruel as to rob the ex-ministerial party of their only English grievance —a grievance upon which they have been feasting for the last fortnight. This grievance is the appointment of Lord Heytesbury to the va cant governorship of the Isle of Wight, with a salary of fif teen hundred pounds a-year. The appointment is not to be disputed, but the Times shows, by an extract from the patent of the noble governor, that the salary is altogether a gratui tous addition of the liberal journals : for Lord Heytesbury is to derive no salary ftom the dignity—not fifteen hundred pounds per annum, nor even fifteen pence, in the shape of salary, perquisite, or any other shape. When the grievance was first brought forward the liberal journals called upon the public, in a fine tone of indignation, to receive Lord Heytes bury's appointment as a specimen of the system of govern ment pursued by Sir Robert Peel's administration. We sup pose that the specimen is equally faithful, whatever quality it represents ; and we therefore think that our contemporaries, now that the truth is known, are called upon to render their applause as zealously to Sir Robert, for the surrender of £l5OO a-year, as they directed their reproaches against him when they erroneously believed that he had retained it. Loss OF LIFE TUROUGII READING IN BED. — Between two and three yesterday morning the inmates of 8, Hereford terrace, Mile-end-road, were roused from their beds by the screams of a female, and a strong suffocating smell of fire, when flames were observed coming from under the door of a back bed-room inhabited by a widow lady, name Sarah Ash ton. The landlord having procured the assistance of a neighbour named Barnet, the bed-room door was opened, when a horrid spectacle presented itself, the poor woman being seated on the e d ge o f th e b e d with he r night clothes all in flames, which had communicated to the bed clothes and curtains. By the courage of the landlady, who burnt her hands severely in the act, the lady was dragged out of the room; when, water hiving been thrown on the flames, her person was found to be in some parts almost burnt to a cinder. She was instantly conveyed to the London Hospital. The fire was extinguished by the inmates and the neighbours. The unfortunate woman lingered only ab ou t th ree h ours after being conveyed to the hospital. It app eare d t h at the de acneadsepda,rtbiecinnlgaralylownhee the m other woman, inmates were reti re d t o b e d, , was much addict e d t o rea di ng, of which she had been cautioned by the landlady ; and as the remains of a book was discovered, it is e x t reme l y pro b a bl e that the fire originated through this dangerous custom, al though the origin could not be strictly ascertained. The deceased was about 25 years of age, and had been a widow a few years. ALARMING EXPLOSION OF GAS, AND NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH. -- Between the hours of five and six o'clock on Tuesday evening last, a considerable degree of excitement was occasioned in this town by the sudden explosion of gas in the Baptist Chapel, Oak-street, which had involved not only the total destruction of the edifice itself, a remarkably neat and only very recently erected building, but the loss of human life. The circumstances, connected with the occur rence are as follow :—On the evening alluded to, a man named Argyle, whose duty is to light the chapel before the commencement of Divine Service, proceeded with a lighted candle to the meter, which was enclosed in a wooden case, immediately under one of the staircases leading to the gal lery, for the purpose of t urnin g on the gas, when, on open ing the door of the case , a f ri g ht ful explosion of the gas im mediately took and s place, which the s t a i rcase was literally blown fragments thrown to all parts of the building, in their progress breaking several of the windows and window-frames. By the concussion the poor fellow was thrown against one of the pews with great violence, but most providentially escaped with only a few bruises and a severely burnt face. The explosion was so loud and terrific as to bring several persons immediately to the spot, whose houses were shook to the foundation by the force of the concu ss i on , to whose prompt exertions the rescuing of the whole pil e o f building, which in the immediate vicinity of the meter w as enveloped in a flame of gas, may be ascribed. Th e d amage, we are glad to learn, is not very extensive, and the injuries inflicted by it on the man not of a serious nature. We have not been able to ascertain correctly to whom blame is attri butable for not securing the escape of gas from the meter. SHOCKING ACCIDENT BY GUNPOWER.-011 Sunday morning last, at the early hour of three o'clock, an accident of a serious nature occurred in a cottage situate in a yard behind the Black Lion Inn, in Upperhead-row, Hudders field, which might have been attended with consequences of a fearful nature. It appears that about the time specified, a lad named Collingwood, more familiarly known as Billy Wood, aged about 19 years, was, with two others, one a mere boy, engaged in the dangerous occupation of manufac turing squibs, and other fireworks, intended for sale for the sth of November, Collingwood and the boy had fallen asleep, the other young man having left the room for a few moments, and on his return found the room in flames, an explosion having taken place in his absence, but how it originated we have been unable to ascertain. Collingwood had fallen asleep over the table on which it is stated there were but six gross of squibs, &c., &c., ready filled. The windows were nearly all blown out ; the curtains and a quantity of clean linen which was in the room were burnt. Collingwood is most severely burnt about the arms and head. The boy, who was awakened by the explosion, endeavoured to rouse Colling wood, but, strange to say he did not succeed, and therefore made his own escape into the yard. The flooring of the room above was much burnt, but providentially not burnt through, as it is stated that in the upper room there were above twenty pounds more of gunpowder, which, bad it ex ploded, would in all human probability have thrown down the high chimney of Mr. Joseph Lockwood's factory, to which the cottage adjoins, and the devastation would have been immense.

Between the close of Tuesday's market and to-day, very little business was apparent in any branch of the trade here ; and at our Corn Exchange this morning extreme dulness ge nerally prevailed. _ _ The abundant supply of Wheat already in, and the expec. tation of further arrivals, seemed to give a complete check to the demand : the operations in any description of this grain were consequently trivial in amount, and although fine qua lities were held at ]ate prices, the ordinary kinds of foreign and Irish were decidedly 2d per 70 lbs cheaper. Flour was also difficult to sell, but not materially lower. Some parcels of English Malting Barley are at hand, for which no certain price is yet established; whilst grinding samples, of which few remain, may be considered nominally the same as last week. Malt, Beaus, and Pease appeared to excite but little notice, and barely maintained our last quotations. Oats and Oatmeal, participating in the languor applicable to all other articles of the trade, were equally neglected, and each scarcely supported the rates last noted. With the exception of some rain on Saturday evening and early on Monday last, the weather has been dry and season able since the 26th ult., and all agricultural labours are now progressing vigorously under favourable prospects. The duty on foreign Barley is raised to 12s. 4d., on Oats to 15s. 3d., on Beans to Os. 63., on Pease to Ils., on British colonial Barley to 2s. 6d., and on Beans and Pease to 3s. per air.: remaining on all other produce the same as last week. A large fleet of vessels having arrived in the course of yes terday, we have to note a liberal supply of Wheat, with a 'moderate quantity of Barley, Oats, Flour and Oatmeal coastwise and from Ireland, the former article consisting chiefly of duty paid foreign from London. We have also to report several cargoes of Grain and Flour direct from abroad, part only of which are in time to appear in our import list below. MEETINGS OF CREDITORS FOX LIVERPOOL. NOVEMBER.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 8 At this day's market, we have had a fair supply of both Beast sod Sheep, which met with a fair demand at our former quotations. Prime Beef 6d to 61d, middling and inferior 4id to 5d ; prime Wether Mutton 7d to middling and Ewes 66 to 64c1 70. lb sinking the offal. Number of Beasts 1618 ; Sheep 5704. LIVERPOOL POTATOE MARKET, NOVEMBER 8. The quantity of Potatoes to hand since the sth instant is trifling. We continue to have a very limited demand for the interior, and the business transacted at the quay by our retail town dealers, is also of the most trivial character, but prices remain nominally the same as our last report; viz. Manx and Scotch Cups is ted to 25 Id per gab. The demand for the growth of our own immediate neighbourhood is a little improved, and prices generally a shade higher. Pink Eyes Cs 2d to 2s 5d ; Cups 2s to 25 2d ; Short Tops Is Sid to 2s ; Cattle Is 3d to Is 6d per yOlos. Turnips 24s 6d to 3os 6d, and Carrots 52s to 53s per ton. ~~ i~~}: M}"Mru SMITHFIELD MARKET. Nov. 5 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 Sib., sinking the offal.) LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 8. 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 100 s per cwt. Ban bridge, Ballymoney, &c. SSs to g4s. 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 sales of 11. 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 3.id to 4id 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 50 puns. Demerara, of coarse quality, 30 to 32 per cent. 0. P., at 3s 5d to 3s 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 Cuteln About 90 tons South American Mother of Pearl Shells sold at £l4. Saltpetre is on the decline, and Nitrate of Soda is 6d to Is lower; the sales of the former are 1630 bags, at 26$ to 30s, and of the latter 400 bags, at 21s 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 .4'9 5s ; 50 tons Lima Nicaragua Wood at £l3 2s 6d to :B'l4 ; 20 tons Sapan Wood at .elO 12s 6d to £lO 17s 6d per ton; 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 12s I tat to 12s 11d, but for 1703 brls. offered at the same time 12s being the highest bid, they were withdrawn, the holders requiring 125 6d, which not being obtainable, the parcel has not been sent into store. No sales reported in Tar. Montreal Pot Ashes are rather higher ; 31s was accepted at the end of last week, since when 31s 6d to 31s 9d has been obtained, and holders now generally ask 325. Pearl Ashes also have improved, as, although 32s 6d to 3:45. 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 9id for sound, and 7d to 7id for Ist rubbed, good brined 92a to 10441 for sound, and 7d to 7id for Ist rubbed. ordinary dry and brined 7id for sound, and bid for Ist rubbed ; 386 salted Horse Hides brought 7s Sd each ; 178 dry salted Jamaica at 3d to 6441, and 2000 Parabia Hides at 6d to 64d for sound, and 4jd 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, Novicaim 8 We continue so dull and spiritless in our market that it is really diffietilt to give any other description of it. The demand is so moderate that the quantity sold on Saturday was only 2000, and today 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. SOO Sea Island and 400 Stained are declared for auction on Friday next. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the 29th ult. to the 4th instant,inclusive. Prices paid! tAIIPOUTS in the week.
