Camden, tiquaries agree that it is a branch of of Audeley, co., Stafford. The im- Stanley., was ho lived in the reign of King John, Sir Adam de Audleigh, the manor of his abode, he assumed the surname igh, or Stanley. The great-great-grandson of this and had f Stanleifih, where fix of St _ William, wa Sir William de Stanley, who married Joan, eldest daughter of Sir Philip de Bamville, Lord of Stourton, in Cheshire, by which marriage Stourton not only came into the family and has since remained in it, but also, by the same alliance, the family became possessed of the manor and bailiwick of Wyrall Forest, and thereupon assumed the armorial bearings since used by his descendants, in place of those borne by his ancestors. Sir William Stanley, Lord of Stanley, Great Stourton, ,s his grandson; and from a younger brother of ended the Stanleys of Cumberland. Sir William Stanley, &c., the eldest son of the above, married Margaret, daughter and heiress of William Hooton, of Hooton, and thus brought the Hooton property into the family,—which, together with the lordships previously pos sessed, have continued to be possessed ever since by it in lineal descent. The second son of this Sir William, namely, Sir John Stanley, K. G., who married the daughter and heiress of Sir Thomas Latham, Knight, of Latham and Knowsley, county of Lancaster, is the ancestor of the Earls of Derby, the Stanleys of Alderley, &c. &c. The present baronetcy of the Hooton Stauleys was created on the 17 June, 1662, the first baronet being Sir William Stanley, of Hooton, and the following are the persons who have held it : &c. his, desc Sir William. —Sir Rowland, his son. —Sir William, his son IV.—Sir Rowland, his son. V.—Sir William, his son (died without issue).

Prices, however, remain miserably low, and without the slightest appearance of improvement. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, AUGUST 30. —Flannels still continue in good demand, and buyers have purchased freely at former prices. In the woo: market there is no change to report: the manufacturers purchase for immediate use only. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, TUESDAY, AUGUST 31.—The demand for fancy woollens and heavy plains still continues brisk, and the trade generally begins to exhibit a more ani mated and healthy appearance. Prices are firm. Business in the warehouses is generally pretty good. The great north road, from London to Edinburgh, is in several parts between Doncaster and Bawtry thickly over grown in the centre with grass. The high road between Stamford and Grantham, for several miles, forms a noble green lane. THE M 6 ous : —Accounts have gone abroad, that the ame of this year have suffered so much from " tape worm," that they afford poor sport, and that many of them are not " eatable." The results of the numerous inquiries made as to the state of extensive moors lying widely apart, coincide in pronouncing the above doleful story either the jest of a wag, or the complaint of some tyro who has not succeeded in throwing salt on their tails. The fox's opinion of the grapes he could not reach explains how the moor fowl are not eatable. At ne 12th of August, for the last six years, have the birds here been so numerous, or so strong on nd the prevalence of wet and stormy weather has them into packs ; so that although the sports lenty he cannot get even "within cry of them." anolv to extensive tracts of moor beyond rth, and Gii van on the south ; and are )unts from Wigtownshire. Partridges he late severe rains have been much that some may have been lost in , veral keepers, however, assure us ares will afford good sport.—Ayr from the moors continue to be as 'rst week ; but, of course, the in the hours they spend on the of the birds, than during game boxes continue to . WO a day, the greater part of which are for , steam to Dundee, and the remainder to Edinburgh and tilasgovr. The superiority of the Perthshire moors in grouse is this year very decided, over the me northerly counties ; and in the south the sport has proved an almost total failure.—Perth Courier. On the Lammermoor and Cheviots, grouse shooting has been on the who le an unsuc vesf 44 affair ; not so much from scarcity of birds, as from the Irdgds strong on the wing, and wild beyond example. .SporcsnOn-tave therefore fagged a great deal, and bagged 4 birds. warded b That of all the twenty-seven, only THREE are directors, or belong to the central or general committees of those institu tions : one of which (the London Missionary Society) raised no less a sum than £BO,OOO last year ; and the other (the Baptist Missionary Society) £26,000 during the same period —those three being the Rev. Richard Fletcher, the Rev. R. Halley, and the Rev. John Waddington. NOT ONE subscribes to " The British and Foreign Bible Society," and only two take any active part in its interests. But one subscribes to " The Religious Tract Society," which the Dissenters boast so much of supporting, and are in the habit of eulogising to the skies. We next examined the lists of another association, which Dissenters once supported, it being then of a mixed charac ter,—we mean " The London Society for promoting Chris tianity amongst the Jews." Remembering the origin of this association, and the debt and difficulties into which it fell whilst under Dissenting direction, we could not help be lieving that these leaders of the Dissenting Bread movements would be found amongst the subscribers to a society, which they pronounced to be godlike and sublime. But once more we were disappointed. With the sole exception of Mr. Fletcher of Manchester, not one of tna twenty-seven satellites have ever contributed to the " Jews' Society ;" and of course, therefore, none of them belong as secretaries, presidents, or even as committee-men, to the auxiliary societies _or associ ations established in its behalf. " But," it may be replied, " although the leaders of this movement were, generally speaking, of second or third-rate standing among Dissenters, they have been joined by others of vast importance; so much so, that on the 9th of August the Patriot published a list of 250 ministers of the Gospel who had signified their intention to be present at the confer ence on the corn-laws." Ist. Out of the 250 names, 125 are ministers in small towns and villages in England, where there are few Dissenters, and those few obscure and uninfluential. 2d. No less than forty belong to Manchester and its en virons, for whose advantage the movement is made. 3d. Eight appertain to London. 4th. Eight belong to Ireland. sth. Twenty to large towns in England where there are several Dissenting ministers in each town, and yet from each of which only one or two have promised to attend. 6th. Thirty are Papists, Socinians, Southcottians, Univer salists, and so forth. . And, ith. The remaining nineteen belong to cities and places of importance ; but only a very few places are repre sented by them, as two, and in one case three, ministers at tend from the same place. THE OBJECTS OF THE MANCHESTER CON- VENTION (From Fraser's Magazine for September.) " To direct the attention of the religious public to the effects of the monopoly in food ; to the principles upon which the law of that monopoly is based ; and to the most legitimate and Christian means of obtaining an equitable settlement of the question, without civil convulsion, and without injury to the just interests of any class of our fellow-citizens,"—Vide Thompson's Circular, dated July 8, 1851. _ _ To the effects of the monopoly in food. Then of course there is a monopoly. This is assumed. Mr. Thompson tells us so, and we ought to believe him ; but stiil, is it not just possible that he may be mistaken? Where is this mo nopoly ? Who belong to it ? All the landowners ?—Yes. All the farmers ?—Yes ! All the millers ?—Yes ! All the bakers ?—Yes ! 411 the muffin-men, with their little trays and bells ?—Yes ! All the butchers ?—Yes ! All the butchers' boys too ?—Yes I—All the holders of dairy farms ? —Yes! All the dairy-men, and dairy-women, and dairy maids, too? (God bless them I)—Yes! All cheese-churners, cheese-pressers, and cheesemongers ?—Yes ! All cultivators of hogs and pigs (including those dear little squeakers called sucking-pigs), as well as all pork-butchers and sausage makers I—Yes ! All tea-merohants, tea-importers, the East India Company, all sugarcane-growers, makers and refiners of sugar, as well as all grocers and dealers in tea, coffee, and sugar—both white and brown I—Yes ! All wine-growers, wine-merchants, and dealers in wine, wholesale, retail, and for exportation ?—Yes ! All market-gardeners, growers of fruit or vegetables for sale, and all vendors thereof, from Grange of Piccadilly to the lowest green-shop in Bethnal- Green or Shoreditch ?—Yes ! All owners of fishing-smacks and fishing-boats, all fishermen and fishwomen too, includ ing our old friends the sweet girls of Billingsgate; all fish mongers, and hawkers and criers of mackerel and herrings at six or sixteen a shilling ?—Yes ! All keepers of poultry yards, and fatteners of geese, ducks, fowls, turkeys, and pigeons ; all poultry-merchants and poultry-mongers, as well as all persons engaged in the sale of poultry, whether at fairs, markets, and shops, or on the highways and byways, in baskets or on boards, and whether live or dead ?--Yes ! All potato-growers, potato- exporters, potato -merchants, potato-farmers, from the Irish landlord to the seller of hot boiled potatoes in a tin saucepan, at three for a penny (cook ing included), in St. Giles's ?--Yes ! What ! all monopolists ?—Yes ! Brewers, too, are they mo nopolists ?—Yes ! Cook-shop keepers ?--Yes ! P as t r y- coo k s and biscuit-bakers ?—Yes ! These, in their respective spheres, are all monopolists in food. Nothing would be less difficult than to demonstrate this. They all deal in food ; they all sell food ; they all get the best prices they can for food. The pub lic only get food through them ; without them the public would get no food. They all make their fortunes (when they can) out of the public, to whom they sell food. They will have their own prices for the food they sell, with one excep tion, however, and that is the farmers, who can only obtain as much money for the corn they send to market, as the supply or deficiency for the time being indicate as a fair and reasonable remuneration. All the rest are monopolists ; and " to the effect of monopoly in food," dear Thompson pro poses to call the attention of the " religious public." But why the religious public? Is i t because dear Thomp son is a religious man ? But who are religious me n ? O n l y dissenting ministers and popish priests ? This is surely a monopoly in religion ; and it may become necessary, per haps, to call the attention of the " irreligious public" to the " effects of this monopoly in religion." What would George Thompson think of a conference to be held i n Lon don to consider the effects of this religious monopo l y . Y et something must be done or the dissenting cardinals m a y vo te ab irato that they are exclusively " the religious public." Then why is the attention of the religious public only to be directed to this monopoly in food? Are reli g i ous men th e only eaters and drinkers in our cities and towns, villages and hamlets? We know not. But is there a monopoly in food ? Can every man grow corn who finds it productive and ad vantageous to do so? He can. Can he grow as much as he pleases? He can. Instead of cultivating potatoes, currants, or cabbages, may the agricultural poor grow wheat, barley, and oats in their larger or smaller gardens and slips of ground ? They may. Can farmers cultivate on th e i r f arms as much of corn as they think they can sell to advantage ? They can. Are the English farmers a set of wealthy cormo rants who are so rich that they do not know what to do with their money, and yet so miserly as to prefer hoarding up their corn to allowing the public to have it cheap ? No. Are the English farmers a set of ignorant and stupid dunces who know nothing about remunerative prices, and therefore refuse to grow that which would pay them best for its cultivation ? No. Then is there a monopoly in food? THERE IS NOT. "Then if there is no monopoly in food, why is bread high ?" asks honest John Birt or dear George Thompson. I will ask them another question, and beg them to answer that. Is there a monopoly in religion ? " No, no, no," they will all roar and scream at the mere announcement of such an inquiry, " there is not ; at least among Dissenters." Very good, gentlemen, we reply ; don't be angry, but then allow us to ask, why is that preaching the gospel is so expensive ? " We don't think it is expensive : four or five hundred pounds per annum is all we require for preaching two or three ser mons on a Sunday, and giving a lecture on the week night." But, gentlemen, the first apostles and preachers of the Gos pel, according to your oft-repeated statements, had neither shoes, nor scrip, nor money, and vet the Gospel was preached in Rome and at Athens. How l s this ? " Yes ; but then they had not such heavy taxes to pay ; and all the necessaries and luxuries of life were not so dear." Agreed to, gentlemen ; and as for this reason you require good salaries for preaching the Gospel, so for the very same reason the farmer, the mil ler, the baker, must be paid for their corn, flour, and bread. "Oh yes, that's all very well. Of course they must be paid —but not so much." Well, gentlemen, since you are (in your own opinions) competent judges of what is a fair remu • nerative price for the corn - grower, corn-grinder, and baker, allow us, the irreligious public, to believe, and to act on that belief, that we are judges (and competent ones too) of the salaries necessary to be paid to Dissenting ministers for their preaching and teaching, so as to establish a sort of general harmony between the principles they preach, and the conduct they pursue. We will have a conference, gentlemen, to exa mine into your monopoly in religion, and it is high time the irreligious public should occupy itself with the matter. " Oh, but what has the irreligious public to do with religious matters ?" Just as much, gentlemen, as the religious public has to do with irreligious questions. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex has just given another exemplification of the good old saw that there is no royal road to knowledge, in the publication of a protest against the rejection of the commercial schemes of ministers by the house, of which, if he be not an ornament, he is at least a member, though for all useful purposes he is gene rally an absent or a silent one. The royal duke asserts that the corn laws have not produced "any" of the benefits anti cipated by their original advocates. His royal highness will not, we trust, think we are intrusive or impertinent in hint ing that they have prevented England being dependent on foreign countries for food, and have enabled its treasury to discharge quarterly his royal highness's well-earned and well-spent demand on its coffers.

Thus are conducive to commerce, but to the afford ?_f d numerous persons whose avoca tions would not of mode of travelling. e them such advantages by the old Our Northamptonshire correspondent writes to the point of weather, as well as crops. The information tallies with local observation. " Aug. 25, a very wet day. One of our most respectable agriculturists says that most of the corn is ripe, and the harvest becoming general ; all we want is suita ble weather. The crops of wheat are not in some fields so good as had been expected, in consequence of the red-dust, induced by continued moisture. The whole of the last week we had glorious weather, and some fields of barley and oats were carried in good order ; much more would have been housed to-day had the weather been propitious; but it has proved otherwise. There is a wonderful abundance of grass everywhere ; and the second crops are nearly equal to the first. Corn has risen in Northampton market, some old wheats fetching from £3 12s. to £4; but three weeks fine weather would reduce it again." Of potatoes—one of the - really staple crops of our country, —there are conflicting opinions; but we retain our expressed opinion, stoutly, that if the sets fail and rot in the ground, the planter has himself to blame in nine cases out of ten. Either the sets are taken from worn-out, superannuated varieties, or they are cut, and suffered to become flaccid, many days before they are deposited in the drills, subject also to the contingency of a period of dry weather, the ground being acrid at the time of planting ; the vegetation, therefore, in such cases, either proceeds languidly, ur the set is lost, causing a blank. Now, it happens that we never remark any of these patches, either in field or garden ; although, as in the present season, some of the ash-leaved kidneys yield but two or three to a root, while others produce three times the num ber, in consequence of the drought of May and June. Yet, upon the whole, we find reason to base our report of the potatoe-crop upon the following notice, which squares with the opinion derived from observation :—" It is gratifying to hear that the crops of potatoes were never known to be more abundant than they are at present. This intelligence offers to the poor the consolation of looking forward to a supply of this valuable article of food at a cheap rate." The beautiful weather which continues to the present moment with high day and day night temperature, concur ring with the hopeful prognostic of the full moon, lead to reasonable expectation of the rapid gathering-in of a most abundant harvest. LADIES' FASHIONS FOR SEPTEMBER (From the London and Paris Magazine of Fashion.) White poults de soie, with small green stripes, intermixed with pink bouquets, levantines brochees with small pink or blue spots on an ecru or gray ground, taffetas Napolitains in stripes or small cheeks in every colour, moires d' Ste in pink or blue, foulards de Chins, deep blue or dark green, with white patterns in bouquets or checks, are now very fashion able, particularly suitable for country wear ; bareges, amongst which those particularly remarked were violet, checked with white ; but on account of the coldness of the season, gros d' Afrique taffetas, poult de soie, are the materials that have been most seen in Paris during the last month. The make of dresses continues much the same; the skirt is still trim med en tablier with gimp and tassels, tight open bodies, with full drapery, tight sleeves, also ornamented with gimp and tassels ; a Swiss guimpe, embroidered and closing in front with three buttons, looks well with this toilette; skirts are also still ornamented with a biais, headed by a quilling of the same material : the corsage tight, with rounded point and revers, also finished with a quilling, as well as on the sleeve, of which it forms the jockey ; the redingote style has the body closing with gold buttons, wide sleeves, half long, trim med with a double row of tulle festonne, and quilled ; trim mings of cord form patterns in relief. A pretty novelty in trimmings is a rouleau of the same material as the dress, heading each tuck ; the corsage with fringe and folds sewed on half way down te body, and fastened low on the shoul ders. The ceintures, on muslin dresses, of small scarf of the same material, very narrow, have been introduced, rolled round the waist, the ends wide, and reaching to the knees ; they are trimmed with narrow lace, and a wide hem, with a ribbon through. In dresses of thicker materials, the cou lisses of the corsage are sometimes placed horizontally in stead of transversely, which has the effect of lessening the size of the waist. With respect to sleeves, they are very generally tight, variously ornamented !-the prettiest are open from the wrist to the elbow, and buttoned or laced with puffs of muslin lace, or similar material, passing through : gimp trimmings are so fashionable as even to be worn on peignoirs of muslin. The most fashionable colours are purple, oriental blue, green scarabs, orange, China black for dresses of satin, tissus, &c. Spencers are always genteel ; one of black velvet, high on the shoulders, and en cceur in front, with tight sleeves, trimmed with two biais of the same, was worn with a very pretty skirt of pink barege. having a flounce of the same, one-third the depth of the skirt. For children the spencer is square before and behind, with a narrow Valenciennes round the throat, and black lace round the waist; tight sleeves, with manchettes of embroidered cambric. Inlets of lace have been much used this season in flchus ; caps and handkerchiefs in the latter style. Some borders have been composed of six small inlets, divided by an interval sufficiently wide to admit a single row of embroidered spots. Cuffs and collars have also been made in this style, for neglige. Pelerines of India muslin, embroidered and trimmed with lace, are much worn, ornamented in front with small nceuds of ribbon, matching the colour of the dress. Many collars are also of cambric, with inlets of lace &c. Many scarfs are made of Cachemire, with light trimmings of gimp all round, and fringe at the ends ; the most elegant are white, and very full. Various other materials are used for scarfs, such as soft silks, lined in various colours, giving two different sides ; those of black velvet have also appeared, no doubt prematurely worn on account of the weather. Small caps of cambric and muslin are worn without ribbon : they form the prettiest style of neglige ; the bands, which turn back, tying on the head, have a good effect, all encircled with light embroidery and lace. One of our latest accounts from Paris states that combs are again making their appear ance in coiffures, either ornamented, carved, or cut out, of pretty forms, suiting all the styles of head dress, and that they have been worn by the most elegant ladies. The form of bonnets is undergoing a little change—they are not thrown quite so back, and begin to fall more on the fore head. The flowers now used on bonnets also indicate the season of the year. Wheat-ears and poppies are again in favour ; and a straw bonnet was prettily ornamented with black and green grapes, and ribbon velvet of shaded green. Crape and paille de riz bonnets are universally ornamented with feathers, the shaded marabout to the bouquet of ostrich feathers, &c., &c. ; the demi guirlandes are reserved for pailles de riz and capotes; nceuds of velvet for straw bonnets, and trimmings of velvet, twisted with ornaments of straw, on Leghorn bon nets. White feathers, shaded with pink, green, or blue; wreaths of roses, white, tinged with lilac, without leaves, placed round the crown ; bouquets of various flowers, &c., &c., are used for bonnets and capotes of silk, &c. Leghorn bonnets, of the straight form, are sometimes ornamented with a small lace veil, entirely covering the front, and con fined on each side and the place of the brides by a mind of green sarcenet ribbon. Capotes of paille de riz are pretty, trimmed with velvet ribbon, shaded in pinks, and intermixed with a small lace veil ; the two ends of which fall en fichu, on each side, tying under the chin as brides, and velvet roses inside. Sewed Leghorns are genteel. Very pretty little cameos are used as snaps for bracelets of black velvet, now very fashionable : in a more elegant style bracelets are formed of tresses of seed coral, closing with a nreud, which terminates in tassels of seed coral. TESTIMONIAL TO THE LATE SIR D. WILKIE On Saturday afternoon a meeting was held at the Thatched House Tavern, for the purpose of considering the most ap propriate method of doing honour to the memory of that distinguished British artist, Sir David Wilkie. Upwards of 300 gentlemen were present. Sir Robert Peel took the chair. The Duke of Sutherland moved, and Sir James M`Gregor seconded—" That it is the opinion of this meeting that the genius of Sir David Wilkie was of that high order which en titles him not only to the admiration and gratitude of his country, but to be publicly recorded amongst those whom she loves to honour." Lord John Russell moved, and Mr. T. Phillips, R.A., se conded—" That this record shall be a permanent and cha racteristic testimonial of his worth as a man. and his great excellence as an artist." Viscount Mahon moved, and Mr. B. B. Cabbell seconded— " That a statue, preserving the manly and well-remembered exterior of Sir David Wilkie, and expressing with skill and taste the likeness and character of Sir David Wilkie, is the most appropriate testimonial." Other resolutions were moved and seconded by Lord C. Somerset, Sir A Calcott, Lord Burghersh, and Mr. P. M. Stewart.

THE TEA TRADE, AEG. 30.—The deliveries of tea from the London warehouses for home consumption were last week steady, being 433,2601 b. The yiotations have give n way to some extent since our last, ranging now about 21d. per lb. below what they were on this day week. No public sal es w ill take place till the ith proximo, but speculation is dull, in hourly expectation of the arrival of the overland mail. A forgery, involving the loss of about £4OO, was on Satur day last successfully practised at Oundle, upon the branch there of the Stamford, Spalding, and Boston Joint-stock Bank. A person who, it is ascertained, arrived that day from Boston, presented a check for £4OO, purporting to be drawn by a well-known customer of the bank ; and some momen tary scruples of the cashier being removed, he paid the sum in notes of the firm. On Monday it was ascertained that the check had been altered from £4 to £-100. The Oundle agent immediately pursued the offender to London ; but the notes had been changed for cash at Messrs. Barclay's early in the forenoon, and at present nothing further is known of the party by whom the fraud was committed.—Lincoln Mereury. CArrtatE or 150 WHALES.—Stromness, Aug. 24.—Our annual welcome visiters made their appearance off Houghton head on Saturday last, about six o'clock in the mornin g . The cry of " Wh a l es , Whales," was immediately raised, the news spread with amazing rapitity, and Morpheus was suddenly freed from many a votary. And all the boats in the harbour, to the number of from 50 to 60, were immediately put in requisiiion, and all the implements of destruction from a harpoon to a carving-knife were quickly gathered. The morning was particularly favourable for a chase, and the scene altogether was most e xciting,. The cries of " Give way, pull together," &c., were heard floating along the smooth surface of the waters, while in the distance the monsters of the deep were sporting and gamboling. In a short time, the boats were up with the whales, and their heads turned in shore, when after a sharp run, they were all safely grounded on the Cairston shore. Then began the process of slaughter ing, and as it is the rule here, (Stoniness,) "every man for himself," all were soon engaged in the work of death. There were about 150 killed, which, on the average, would be worth about £3 each, making the aggregate value of the whales £450. It is feared that, unless some proper regulations are adopted and enforced by the authorities, the blood of her Majesty's lieges will some day or other be mingled with that of the whales. Club law in any shape is a dangerous one, especially where the excitement is so great, and lethal weapons so ready at command. There was a good deal of bickering and bad blood on the occasion. and some disputes occured, which are likely to be brought to an investigation before the sheriff. Ib Flotta, Scapa, and other places the people make common cause of the affair, and share alike, which is de cidedly the proper system. Bernard Cavanagh has arrived in London, and bids fair to become a formidable antagonist to Mesmerism, with its manipulations, its galvanism, its brimstone and lucifers. Times are so hard in Massachusetts that it requires the united efforts of the population to get through them. Rum, when in hogsheads, is capable of doing but little mischief ; but when it gets into men's heads, look out ! The New Orleans Times says, the inquiry of a gentleman if it was not " rather amusing" to edit a daily paper, re minds him of a question he once heard propounded by a moustached, wasp-waisted exquisite, to an emaciated wretch at work Oil the tread-mill.

Was it the name of the celebrated Baptist Teeto taller " Beardsall ?" There is also another test, and one even more striking than that we have just supplied, for ascertaining the rank and importance, in the estimation of the dissenters themselves, of the persons who have voluntarily taken the lead in this bread and corn movement. It is that of ascertaining which of them belong to the list of country directors of those two societies. We have now before us the printed lists of the country directors for 1841 of the London and Baptist Mis sionary Societies, and we have examined with great care the names of twenty-seven leaders of this Manchester Conven tion with those lists. What is the result ? .. .GRICULTURAL REPORT FOR AUGUST. (From tke Morning Herald.) At a period of anxious suspense, when there has been in good truth ample causes for complaint, which have been worked up by interested parties into prognostics of famine and desolation, it becomes the peculiar duty of the candid reporter to search for evidence. We have done so, and hav ing obtained it—clear, impartial, and extensive evidence—we give a positive denial to all the assertions of injury, and also boldly affirm that there exists at present no cause of alarm ; that the crops are one and all good, sound, prolific, and in all probability will be found ultimately productive beyond the average. Having so far dealt in assertion, we proceed to adduce our authorities. Essex is one of our primest wheat districts, and now, in reference to it, let the following extract suffice to show how excellent are the crops :—" An extensive farmer, who culti vates nearly 1,000 acres in that county, states that the wheat in sheaf is beyond his expectation, and has ripened with a fine yellow tint. Full half of it is secured in fine order. The improved weather will certainly make the crop above an ave rage. Barley and oats are heavy crops : beans and peas are great crops, and potatoes very abundant." The same re marks will hold good with Kent. We have ourselves, in succession, visited a considerable part of Buckinghamshire, Middlesex, and Hertfordshire. The weather, it is known, continued cold, sunless, and very wet until the 16th August, whence nearly a week of powerful, brilliant sunshine set every farmer to work. The operations were simultaneous, and most rapid, for the crops turned off at once, and strange as it may appear, though the cold had protracted the harvest till a period so comparatively late, no sooner did the rain abate than it became apparent that the reapers must be in the field. True it is some barleys remain stunted, and are over-topped by the clover and herbage that did not suffer from the unseasonable drought early in June, and some fields are laid ; but there appear neither sprouting nor discoloration. The following letter, written expressly by a bailiff over 1,200 acres, will exhibit a true picture of the condition north of Wycornb and in mid Bucks : " August 18. lam happy to say that the weather has taken a favourable turn, and that the sickle is in operation in every direction. The crops in general in this district are everything the farmer can desire ; and should the weather prove fine for two weeks, the greater part of the harvest will be over. Stock of all sorts is in a flourishing condition, and the after-crops of grass are abundant." But the fine weather gave way on the 22d, and the rain of three following nights certainly produced stagnation. The temperature, however, was fortunately low, and as soon as it began to rise to a degree which might have caused sprout ing, the sun broke forth again, a brisk air played among the sheaves, all hands were at work, to move, reverse, or expose them in one way or other (this we saw), and vast breadths were carrying on the 26th. Three perfect days have fol lowed, and thus advances have been made of every kind, and in all directions. One homely remark made to us personally by a neighbour, who had put up three great ricks, and whose sheaves, in one connected breadth, would suffice to make as many more, will show how he had changed his opinion : " I have," said he, " been threshing all day as well." But how does it turn out? "Oh good, very good indeed, quite dry ; comes out like a shot." He had, weeks before, said how "rough" the sample would be! We could cite other similar examples. From Scotland nothing direct has been communicated ; but we are informed by a native, competent to give an opinion, that every thing in the north was in a prosperous state. SECOND EDITION. Standard Office, Ten o'clock .szf> THE NEW MINISTRY. (From a Second Edition of the London Standard.) The following appointments have been mentioned this evening, we believe upon good authority, though we cannot say the best; at all events, there is little doubt that however noblemen and gentlemen may determine, the offices named have been tendered as follows : Master General of the Ordnance—Sir George Murray, Lord Beresford having declined. Woods and. Forests—Lord Granville Somerset. Admiralty Chief Secretary—Sir George Clerk. Admiralty Lords—Sir George Cockburn (unless Sir Geo. prefer the command in the Mediterranean), and Lord In gestrie. Treasury Secretary—Sir Thomas Freemantle. Governor of Canada—Sir Howard Douglas. PRIVY COUNCIL AT CLAREMONT TO-MORROW ' (From a Correspondent.) Shortly before three'o'clock the messenger dispatched this morning by Sir Robert Peel to her Majesty at Claremont returned to Whitehall Gardens with an answer to the right honourable baronet's communication. Immediately afterwards, by direction of Sir Robert Peel, summonses were issued from the Council Office, for holding a Privy Council at Claremont to-morrow, at one o'clock. The following noblemen and gentlemen were summoned to attend the Council : Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Welliegton, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of Ripon, Lord Stanley, the Duke of Buckingham, Earl de Grey, the Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Lyndhurst, the Earl of Haddington, Lord Wharncliffe, Lord Ellenborough, Sir Henry Hardinge, Mr. Goulburn, and Sir James Graham. Lord Eliot and Mr. Wm. Gladstone also received sum monses to attend the council to-morrow, it being (we under stand) her Majesty's aracious - pleasure to confer the honour of a Privy Councillor on the noble lord and the honourable gentleman. Lord Granville Somerset had a long audience with Sir Robert Peel in Whitehall Gardens this afternoon. Previous to the Council to-morrow the members of the late Administration will have an audience of her Majesty, and resign the Seals of their respective offices, which her Majesty will afterwards eive to their successors. We . believe nearly all, if not all, the Household appoint ments have been made. THIRD EDITION. Standard-office, Three o'clock LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tats DAY. (From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.) From the close of Tuesday's market up to this date, the business transacted in any kind of free produce was upon a very limited scale, without any material change in prices; and although bonded Wheat and Flour met some inquiries, no important sales were effected, the holders generally ad hering to our previous quotations. The large arrivals of Grain into this port noted in the early part of the week, have been augmented since by a good supply of Wheat, Oats, Pease, and Oatmeal, with a moder ate quantity of Canadian Flour as specified below. By the average returns, received here this morning, the duty on Foreign Wheat is reduced to 6s. Sd., on Barley to 9s. 4d. per quarter, on Flour to 4s. per barrel ; and remains upon all British Colonial Produce the same as last week. During the last eight days the weather on the whole was favourable for harvest, and in forward situations a moderate portion of the crops of Wheat and Oats was saved ; but a return of rain last night, and to-day being wet, with an un settled appearance, further proceedings therein are delayed for the moment. Notwithstanding the altered state of the weather, our Corn Exchange to-day was but slenderly attended by town and country millers, and most descriptions of free Wheats, upon a limited demand, were depressed in value Id. to 2d. per 701bs. beneath the current rates of Tuesday.—Bonded Wheats, on the contrary, owing to receding duties and the near approach of their release, were held rather firmly ; an some parcels have changed hands at a small improvement upon our last quotations. Flour generally, whether free or under lock, was in slow request at late prices. Oats were held rather more tenaciously, but with increas ing supplies, and little inquiry, no actual amendrcent in prices was obtainable. Old Oatmeal appeared to command a tolerable degree of attention, and although the sales were not extensive, rather higher terms were partially acquired ; new samples, however, were decidedly less saleable, and Is. per load cheaper. In other articles of the trade the transactions were very unimportant to-day, and each seemed barely to retain our last currency.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, Auo. 31. •• (From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott 5 - Som.) The imports of all kinds of Grain, Flour,,and Oatmeal, from Ire. and, Coastways, and from Foreign ports, have been very consider able since Tuesday last. During the past week, the weather, with the exception of Wed day, has been as favourable as possible in every respect for harvest, which has commenced very generally throughout this district; a good deal is in stooks, apparently abundant in quality, and reports are not unfavourable as to quality, but a considerable portion of the crops is still far from maturity, and so much depends on the weather for the next month, that it will be towards the end thereof before any decided opinion can be formed of the crcps. In consequence of the fine weather, and the release of nearly 60,000 quarters of Wheat and 79,000 barrels of Canadian Flour, the millers ,and dealers have been very sparing buyers for imme diate wants, and sales of free Grain have been effected only to a more moderate extent, though a decline, which:can hardly be strictly stated, as been submitted to, of about 6d to 9d per 701 b for Wheat ; Is to is 6d per barrel and per sack on Flour; 4d to 5d per 451bs on Oats; 3s to 43 per 2401 b on Oatmeal (owing to a large arrival of Irish Meal from the Clyde;) and is to 2s per quarter on every other kind of Grain ; and although some quality of American Flour in bond has changed hands at a very small decline from last quota- tions, Wheat in bond has been sold at a reduction of 6d per 701 b, though the prospect of low duties next month is not abated. The duties payable since Friday last on Wheat from Foreign ports is reduced (two steps) Is per quarter, on Flour 35 04d per barrel, au il on all other Grain is 6d per quarter, and there appears no reasoi to doubt a further decline in the duties, except on Oats, next Frid y, which prevents any bonded Grain from being released for present use. Dutch heavy brew Oats find a very trivial demand for export at about 3s 2d per 451 b. It rained heavily last night, and this morning the weather ap peared to be again becoming unsettled, but it has turned out very line, and at this day's market sales were effected only to a very limited amount, although the decline above noted was fully sub -- nutted to, and the prices quoted below are almost nominal.

Best Beef 6d to bid ; Mutton 6d to 7d ; middling fid to 6id ; Lamb 5d to 64d. A few beasts as as well as Sheep and Lambs unsold. Beasts 974 : Sheep and Lambs 7,500.

Od. to 11s. 3d 11 0 11 0 46 4 9 DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 31 Owing to a continuance of favourable weather, our market wears a very languid appearance. Some samples of new Wheat sold freely at our quotations. There was a full supply of Oats, which sold at Friday's rates. Oatmeal a dull sale, and in some instances a reduction of 6d. to is. per cwt. Bakers' Flour continues to move off slowly, at a decline of 6d. to is. per cwt., inferiors and thirds in good demand, at a reduction of is. per cwt. on all descriptions. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUG. 31 Less demand and business to-day, caused in some degree by - the suspension of two extensive firms, which has had the effect of causing holders to take prices they refused yester day, and also to shew a little more anxiety to effect sales. The amount to-day estimated at 1500 to 2000 bales. corroN MARKET, SEPTEMBER 1 Our market is very dull and inanimate in tone and feeling, though the demand is far from being so bad as it was, for to-day 4,500 to 5,000 bales have been sold at somewhat easier prices than was paid early in the week. 200 bales taken for export; remainder to the trade. The market closing heavily. COTTON MARKET,SEPTEMBHR 2 A good attendance of buyers in the market to-day, but holders displaying more anxiety to sell, caused them to be rather shy, con sequently less business was done than might have been expected, say to the extent of 3,500 to 4,000, at, prices fully id. lower than was obtained on Friday last. 200 bales have been taken for export again to-day. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, SEPT. 2 The Butter market has become very steady, and prices are fully supported. Belfast and favourite south country brands being saleable at gas. to gss. per cwt. There appears to be a general dis position on the part of holders to look for higher rates. Heavy Beef is held for more money, as is also prime Pork ; other descrip tions being abandoned may be purchased on easy terms. Bacon is in brisk request, considerable quantities having changed hands upon speculation; we quote the heaviest meat at 565. to 58s; large quantities of this article have been bought up in Ireland for the mining districts in the west of England.
