Daughter of Zion ! thou bast wandered long Amid the trackless mazes of the wild : But thy return hath been with joy and song. And, blissful foretastes have thy path beguiled ? And, as the rose, the wilderness hath smiled. To thee its store of fragrant odours bringing ; And, as of old, for Hagar 's dying child, Pure rills Nave gush'd amid the desert springing, And o'er the parched waste a cooling moisture flinging Daughter of Zion ! lone and desolate Thy house hath been left to thee—but the sigh Of those who long have mourned thy sad estate Hath risen soft as incence-cloud, on high, And been remembered. Who are those who fly As doves to their own windows ? Not the foam Of intervening billows, nor the sky Of other climes, can chase the thought of home From the sad wanderer's heart, where'er his feet may roam Daughter of Zion ! o'er each distant isle Brood the soft plumes of God's eternal Dove ; Earth's fruitful breast, and ocean's countless smile, Welcome the day of universal love. Now righteousness hath looked from heaven above, And Israel's countless hosts no more forsaken, On to their land, as billowy surges move, Though long by scorn and whirling tempests shaken, Once more in Salem's courts the note of praises waken. Daughter of Zion! thy Redeemer reigns- 7 The banished exile seeks his native shore; The ransomed captive casts away his chains, And war forgotten, shall be learned no more And earth's vast myriads joyously adore (Under their vine and fig-tree, when the beam Of morning doth its welcome radiance pour Till the bright star of silent eve doth gleam)— Him, who his life has given, his Israel to redeem. THE DUKE OF LANCASTER'S YEOMANRY. TO THE EDITO. OF TILE MANCHESTER CHRONICLE iVorsley, August 10, 1841. SIR,—I have addressed a letter to the editor of the Stan dard, London evening paper, which adverts to a paragraph in one of its leading articles, on the subject of my supposed levy of an armed force in this county. That letter contains, perhaps, an explanation sufficient for those who are willing to receive one ; but when it was written, I had not enjoyed an opportunity of reading the statements to which the Stan dard adverted, and I could then form no conception of the extent of error into which the imagination of the authors of those statements had led them. I find also that, in some respects, those who have undertaken my defence, and who are erroneously described as having done so under instruc tions from me, have been as much mistaken in matters of fact as my assailants. On collecting these publications, I find myself charged with various offences, some against com mon sense and discretion, and others against the law and constitution of the country, and with intentions of a murder ous and bloodthirsty description. . _ The first and most distinct charge is, that I have, on my own authority, raised an armed force. Are the editors of papers in large circulation, and the correspondents whose letters they admit, so ignorant as not to know that I should be immediately prosecuted by the attorney-general for such a proceeding, and that my armed force, raised without autho rity from the Sovereign, procured through her ministers, would be instantly suppressed by proclamation? One of the said correspondents, in the Manchester Times, describes me, further, as having called into re-existence a corps which bad been dissolved in virtue of the decease of the late Sovereign. Before he attributed to me this feat of creative power, he might have ascertained that the armed force of this country, of any denomination, is not, like the parliament. dissolved on the death of the Sovereign. It happens that, in the case of the Lancashire Yeomanry, that corps has always borne, and therefore retains, the title of the Duke of Lancaster's Yeo manry, and that no Duke of Lancaster now exists. But that circumstance has no effect upon its continuance or organiza tion. Whatever its title, it has never ceased to exist from its cotablishment many years ago. -1 .1 lam described as h aving made myself its colonel. It has no colonel, because, consisting only of three troops, it is not, by the rules of the War-office, entitled to a commandant of higher rank than a major, and it is to that command and rank I have succeeded, on a vacancy, by permission of the Queen, procured as usual through the recommendation of the lord-lieutenant. My son has filled another vacant and subaltern commission, and after all these formidable proceed ings, I believe there are still some officers and many privates wanting to complete the corps up to the establishment allowed and provided for by the government. It was under these circumstances that some 40 or 50 of my neighbours and te nants expressed to me a wish to form themselves into an ad ditional troop, in the hope of being commanded by my son. The offer was made without any previous knowledge or sug gestion on my part. I am described as having done that which I have not done, on communication with Sir Robert Peel. I have had no communication, direct or indirect, with him whatever in the matter. . - I have given elsewhere the reason why I have not taken any one of the steps which would have been necessary towards raising the additional troop I am accused of having levied. I repeat, however, my confession and assurance, that if the application of those who, without any suggestion of my own, wished to form one, had reached me earlier, I should have had no hesitation in recommending their appli cation to the existing government's consideration. I should have done so on the grounds, first, that I could strongly de pend on the loyalty and good conduct of those who made it ; and next, that the establishment of the force in Lancashire is far inferior to that of any county I know of similar im portance. I do not believe that the corps, at the annual exercise last June, mustered above 150 men, including offi cers I have served in the Staffordshire Yeomanry when it mustered between 700 and 800. In Yorkshire, Cheshire, and Warwickshire, I believe this force is on a similar footing. It is certainly possible that the present government, or any other might not consider those circumstances sufficient to authorize an increase—opinions of public and private individuals may differ as to the value and efficiency of this description of force and circumstances of time and place may affect the expedi ency of adding to its numbers. My own opinion is, that the force is a valuable one, and ought to be encouraged within reasonable limits ; and that, whether to be increased or not, resident gentlemen do well to undertake the command of ex isting corps, though the task may, under circumstances of extreme, and, I trust, rare occurrence, be responsible and invidious. No man in his senses could think it a desirable thing per se to command a detachment of yeomanry in a civil conflict, which lam said to anticipate. lam quite sure, however, that if the gentlemen of England are always to be contemplating and shrinking beforehand from such disagreea ble possibilities, the interests of the country at large will suffer-with their own. I will, however, at once admit, that if the apprehensions of imminent disturbance which I am supposed to entertain had ever entered my head, the raising on my own estate at such a moment a single troop of yeo manry, is not a measure I should have taken for my own protection or that of others, and that I should at least have waited for the fullest sanction of the existing government be fore I for a moment entertained such a proposal from others. As it is, the proposal has originated exclusively in the desire of some friends and neighbours to serve under my son, and I pledge myself has had no reference whatever to any particular circumstances of the time. On these grounds, 1 repeat, I should not have hesitated, at a proper period- for such appli cation, &c., before the estimates for the year are made up, to state this mighty matter in all its bearings to her Ma jesty's present ministry, who, should they have thought fit to reject the offer of the parties, would assuredly have done so on better grounds than the stra nge an d un f oun d e d suppo sitions to which that offer has given rise. I am not desirous to load your columns with a disquisition or eulogy on the yeomanry force, but I am tempted to allude to one of its attributes which I c ons id er a m e r it ; th a t, lik e many other institutions in this country, it brings together for a common and legitimate purpose men of various politics. I have served myself in the Staffordshire corps under Lords Hatherton and Lichfield. The latter, I believe, still com mands it, and promotes its efficiency to the utmost by his example and influence. That among the officers in general my own persuasion in politics may preponderate I think pro bable, but in a county where I occasionally reside, Surrey, Lord Lovelace commands the yeomanry. I see that the Queen's escort of Hertfordshire Yeomanry, on her Majesty's recent visit to Passanger, was commanded by Lord Cowper. If I mistake not, I have seen addresses moved or seconded in parliament very lately, under wbig administrations, by gentlemen in yeomanry uniforms. At the last annual exercise 43 - r the West Riding corps, Mr. Stuart Wortley happened to be mounted on the horse of a brother officer ; the lender was Lord Milton, his announced antagonist for the expected election. I believe some of the Blue and Yellow farmers present could hardly understand this. I do, and value it. I really hope that my friends of the whig and radical press, whom I have usually found fair though uncompromising op ponents, will reduce their imaginations to a peace establish ment ; condemn the yeomanry, if they please, or me for join ing it, but in common justice acquit xue of the long-sighted, sinister, and bloodthirsty intentions which I am bold to say are not consistent with my general conduct or reputation. At all events, let them acquit Sir Robert Peel, whom I am ready to expurgate upon oath of all participation in, or knowledge of, the matter.—l remain, Sir, your obedient servant, F. EGERTON. laortrp.

CHURCHWARDENS OF NEW CHURCHES The following letter bas been addressed by the poor law commissioners to a gentleman resident at New Mills, in answer to au application, the nature and object of which will be best collected from the letter itself : " Poor Law Commission Office, Somerset House, August 10, 1841. JURISDICTION OF THE CHURCHWARDENS OF A NEW eplloUoßr law ell IN BEARD TOWNSHIP. ''Sir,—The commissioners acknowledge the re ceipt of your letter of the 3d instant, in which you request to be informed whether the churchwardens of a new govern ment church, lately erected within the township of Beard, have any parochial jurisdiction in any way or form whatever. "The commissioners presume that the church has been erected under the powers conferred by the 58th Geo. c. 45—an act for building churches 111., observe, that the 31st that supposition be correct, they n populous parishes. If sec tion of that statute enacts,that the division of any parish into districts for ecclesiastical purpo s affect a parish • so divided in any otheriasnot in any way to respectr than the act particularly provides ; but the original parish rates, to s, for all the pur poses of the poor, and as regards parochiai no such re main and continue in la w a p arish to all intent division into sep arate p arishes had been made, as Thef of churchwardens app ointed under the act are define. duties the 73d section, and exten d onl y to the care and management of the church erected for the district for which the ye tnbi tookrted ; such churchwa rdens, therefore, have no jurisdiction whatever out of the district, and in the district the jurisdiction is exclusively of an ecclesiastical nature. —Signed, by order of the board, ' " George Coode, Assistant Secretary." Frogmore, which would have fallen to the crown on the death of - the Princess Sophia, has, by arrangement with her royal highness, been already added to the domains of Wind sor Castle . Twenty acres of the three hundred of which the estate consists are to form a kitchen garden for the palace; and, altogether, £20,000 will be laid out upon the intended tribute to this valuable acquisition. A lecture was delivered last Wednesday evening, at Tot- I teth Hall, by James Lord, Esq. After prayer, and a few introductory observations from the chairman, Mr. LORD arose, amidst much cheering, to address the assembly. He felt gratified, he said, that at so short a no tice so many of his fellow-Protestants had assembled to declare their unabated attachment to the Protestant institu tions of this country. It was a gratifying feature in the present time to behold the increased interest taken in such proceedings as the present. (Cheers.) While there was much to dishearten, there was much also to encourage. It was true indeed that we had been forgetful of our privileges, or of the tenure upon which we held them ; but he trusted that would no longer be the case. The time was now come when it behoved those who were called Protestants to act in a manner worthy of that name. It was not sufficient that we bore the name of Protestants, unless also we had the spi rit and the principles of Protestantism. Our Protestant forefathers were not contented with a shadow, a mere name ; they regarded the substance, the internal principle ; and till, like them, we had resolved to hold our principles dearer to us than any other consideration, we should never be a match for Popery, nor fitly qualified to take a part in that struggle between truth and error. He scrupled not to avow that he desired Protestant ascendancy, not as a party watchword, but because we should have Popish ascendancy if we did not. (Cheers.) The two could not long coexist on terms of equa lity ; the one or the other would be in the ascendant ;—but here was the difference, that if Popery gained the upper hand, she would tolerate none who differed from her, while Protestants would concede to Popery full and complete to leration. In Dens' Theology, which he had then with him, it was asked whether or not toleration was lawful, and it was made to depend on the utility of the church. And again, vol. 11., p. SS, the question is asked, what is the punishment of the crime of heresy? Many answers are given, among them the following;—" Inability to any benefice or public office." A deprivation of any benefices or dignities of spiritual jurisdiction. Notorious heretics are infamous ipso jure, and are deprived of christian burial. "Their temporal goods also are ipso jure, confiscated, and finally they may deservedly be visited with corporal punishment, as exile, imprisonment, &c." Again, p. 89, it is asked whether heretics are rightly punished with death; this is answered in the affirmative—because forgers of money, or other disturbers are justly punished with death, therefore also heretics, who are forgers of the Path, and who, as experience teaches, greatly disturb the state. Here was no ambiguity, and here they saw those principles, under the ill effect of which Ireland had so long suffered. The Lecturer proceeded to observe, that it was denied by many that the Pope has temporal power. Cardinal Bellar mine says, " The Pope has the chief temporal power, at least indirectly." The doctrines, as to deposing princes, may, for the present, be passed by. But as to laws, he pro ceeds, " The Pope cannot as Pope grant a civil law. or confirm it; nor can he repeal the civil laws of princes, because he is a temporal prince, but lie can do all these things if any civil law be necessary for the salvation of souls, and kings do not choose to grant it ; or if any law he injurious to the salvation of souls, and kings do not choose to repeal it." Here, then, is the principle clearly laid down—here is part of that system of instruction for which we pay nearly £lO,OOO a year—a principle which virtually recognises in the pope a power of enacting or abrogating the laws of different coun tries, when it may suit the purposes of ecclesiastical utility to do so. (Hear, hear.) This power is denied, by some men, to exist, by others, is declared as impossible ever again to be exercised. But, in refutation both of the one and the other, he held in his hand a document which would clearly show that the inclination to use such power was not wanting when ever a fitting opportunity occurred for its display. The do cument was contained in a Roman Catholic periodical ; it was the allocation pronounced by his holiness Pope Gregory XVI., in the course of the present year, and referred to Spain. The government of that coantry had lately interfered in the regulation of convents, churches, church property, and church appointments ; and in order to remedy existing abuses, and to provide against the like in future, had issued certain edicts and decrees, into the policy of which it was not necessary for him (Mr. L.) then to enter—but which the Spanish Cortes clearly thought they had a right to make and issue, as they related to the reform of abuses, and the inter nal government of the state. But here it is we find the dormant energies of the pope called again into exercise, and the laws of a temporal sove reign abrogated, because they clash with the interests of the Roman pontiff. (Great cheering.) After complaining of all that has taken place, or is now taking place in Snain, contrary to the rights of the church ;" * * * * "that the property of the church has been invaded, as if that pro perty were subject to national authority ;" " that the immu nities of the church had been violated," " execrable books distributed," and " heresy allowed to corrupt the uneducated and unwary." his holiness, for such is the title he assumes, thus proceeds : " We therefore condemn, by our apostolical authority, and by virtue of the protection which we owe to all the churches, all the aforesaid acts, all that the government of Madrid has done, or attempted to do, by itself or its subal terns, against the church, declaring by our authority, all these acts to be null and void, either in the past, or the fu ture, and of no effect in the consequences which may result from them." But this, as those have been found who deny the existence of such a power, those also may be found who will deny its operation, who may contend that it is merely bruhnn fulnzen, neither likely to shake in any degree the loyalty of the sub jects of Queen Isabella, nor to disturb the peace of the country. Such, however, is not the case, no, it cannot be. While men hold—and conscientiously hold—principles, prac tice will result from them, take its tincture from them—the principles may be bad—that is not the point, if they are con scientiously held, though bad, and though wrong, believed to be right, they will of necessity be bad to conduct, and the principles being bad, the conduct and the practice resulting from them will be bad also. What, then, has been the re sult? Facts will sometimes refute theories. They present to us something more plain and tangible ; and in taking up a paper a short time since it is stated—" The ecclesiastical schism gains ground in Spain. Thirty canons of the Chap ter of the See of Saragossa have been imprisoned for adhering to the allocation of the pope." Here, then, is an illustration of my position, that the principles of popery are of a disloyal tendency. Let me not be misunderstood, or misrepresented, as I sometimes have been. I say not of individual Roman Catholics that they are themselves disloyal, I speak of principles. I presume not to enter the recess of any man's bosom, and dictate what principles he may hold on such points as these. Conduct would be different, probably, with different men, but you see what it was here: (Hear, hear, and cheers.) The interest of the Pope, and the tem poral Sovereign, while they clash not with each other, re quire not of Boman Catholics to make any choice as to whom they shall yield a prior obedience. But when the interests of the two are opposed—when temporal power is arrayed against spiritual power—the laws of the pope against the laws of the king—when the penal laws of a temporal prince are arrayed against the anathemas of the church—then comes the test—then it will be seen that those men who, though deluded, have been taught to regard the sentence of excommunication as a heavier punishment than fire or sword, will go to prison with the Canons of Saragossa rather than disobey the allocation of his Holiness the Pope. (Great cheering.) The time is not far distant when Protestant As sociations will be viewed in a different light from that in which they are now regarded—(hear, hear, hear)—when those who now, though ignorantly I would hope, misre present, calumniate, and abuse—who would treat our as sertions as unfounded statements, think our anxieties need less, and stigmatize our humble though laborious, and I trust faithful and sincere, exertions, to uphold, in an unimpaired integrity—our free, our noble, our protestant constitution and religion as the offspring of a misplaced zeal, intolerance, bigotry, or ignorance, shall awake to a sense of their own delusion ; and, when happily it may be too late, shall find themselves fettered in those very chains which, unless they had freely taken, none could have forced upon them, and recognise in the reptile they so fondly press to their bosoms, the same that their forefathers cast from them, and which we cannot take home to our bosoms without for feiting and endangering every privilege and blessing which our ancestors have handed down to us. (Cheers.) But how has this matter, it may be asked, been treated by the Spanish government? I find in a London journal of last week the following notice of the Spanish government of the allocation, and its probable effect in Spain :—" It was to avoid difficul ties that the Spanish government has gone to the very limits of forbearance, consistent with its duty. It can go no fur ther without showing i s tself wanting in dignity, respect to the rights of the nation, and the prerogative of the crown. The consequence of a continued interruption of a friendly rela tion of a Catholic kingdom with the Sovereign Pontiff might be disastrous, but the responsibility would rest on those who had heaped difficulty, and refused even to come to an equita ble adjustment of the subject in dispute. We have claimed at a proper time the exercise of our legitimate rights, and have carried our difference for religion, and the tranquility of the state to its utmost extent in the observance of the laws of the monarchy, and the venerable discipline of the church. * * * * * * * * * * The violent allocation of the Holy Father, can only be re garded as a declaration of war against Queen Isabella 11., against the safety of the state, and against the constitution. It is truly a manifesto in favour of the conquered and ex pelled Pretender ; it is a scandalous, excitement to schism, discord, disloyalty, and revolt. What members, what ad vocates or friends of the Protestant Association, he would here inquire, had used language in any way approaching this, adopted by a Popish government itself? When writing the allocation of his Holiness, they characterized it as a scanda lous excitement to schism, discord, disloyalty, and revolt. (Great cheering.) But they proceed, " The government of her Majesty cannot, without a breach of loyalty and honour, be silent under this enormous attempt. It cannot refrain from employing for its repression, all the just means placed within its hands, by reason, propriety, the discipline of the church, and the power of a great and noble nation, so shamefully insulted." Such is the language used by the government of Queen Isabella. Here you behold Spain protesting against the tyranny of that system which we have been seeking to con ciliate by conversion. Here you behold the Pope in the 19th century arrogating to himself the power of his predecessors ; again seeking to trample upon the necks of princes, the rights of men, and liberty of conscience ; to dictate once more to the cabinets of Europe, and using his influence as a spiritual superior, to bind and to loose at his pleasure ; to abrogate the laws of temporal princes, if they at all contra vene the interest of the Church of Rome. (Great cheering.) Oh that this might lead Spain, the darkest, the most op pressed, the most enslaved and superstitious of all nations of Europe, that once was free and Christian, and yet retains the name, to seek for more than a deliverance from the Pope's temporal power,—that she may now be led to shake off the bondage of a thousand years, and despite the terrors of the In quisition and thunders of the Vatican, may reassume her long lost independance—mav be among the first of the nations of the earth to make war with the beast—(bear, hear ' and cheers)—that her citizens may again be free, Christian free men—free in that glorious freedom with which the truth makes free, for he is the freeman whom the truth makes free, and all are slaves besides. (Vehement cheering.) Long may our native land be shielded by the protecting arm of Providence from the intrigues or intimidation of Popery, which the same in principle, would be the same in practice, when the like opportunities occurred, and it were convenient for the church to embrace them. Are we not ourselves contributing to help on the growth of these evils, either actively by giving them our support, or passively by not endeavouring to counteract them ? Here Mr. Lord adverted to Ireland, and produced the following petition, praying for a Committee of Inquiry, which he trusted would be signed by hundreds and thousands of this town : " That your petitioners appreciating the blessings they have so long enjoyed in this free and Christian country, have heard with heartfelt concern of the outrages which have taken place during many of the recent elections in Ireland. " That while your petitioners desire to express their sincere and unabated attachment to the religion, the throne, and the Protestant constitution of these realms, they desire also to express the apprehensions they entertain, for their continued safety and independence. That, in the estimation of your petitioners, the late disturbances in Ireland arose from, and may be traced up to, the machinations of Popery struggling for ascendancy, no less political than religious ; and they fear that, unless timely precaution be used, the same system of intimidation may be used at future elections, in Ireland, and be introduced into England, even with increased hor rors,—destroying freedom of election, preventing the impar tial administration_ of justice, endangering the safety of the throne, house, that Your r nd integrity of the empire. your consideyroal:i petitioners, therefore, implore your honourable the enactment of consideration, be pleased to take these matters into 4i investigate the causes which have lead to as to the ese sad atrocities, and adopt such mea suresnt, to prevent a wisdomrecurroefn your honourable house may seem ee of the like evils—to Protestant ascendancy—freedommaintain of election—the authority There was need now of a wisdom, firmness, and discretion more than any to be found in mere expediency, if they would either restore that wherein the constitution had been defaced, or strengthen the things that yet remained to them. Of the conspiracy now on foot to establish a perfect sys tem of tyranny, time did not now permit him to speak ; but on the following Monday, when in another part of the town he hoped again to address them, he should go at some length into the nature and object of the ribbon conspiracy, and show of whom it consisted, for what end it was formed, and how it sought to carry its purposes into effect. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He would only, therefore, in conclusion, implore them that they should never remit the exertions they had already made, but persevere, that, be the result what it may, they might have the consolation of knowing they had not betrayed the trust reposed in them, but enjoy the consolation of having discharged their duty to their religion, their coun try, themselves, and their posterity. (Loud cheers.) . . A vote of thanks to the lecturer was then moved, and carried by acclamation, which was briefly acknowledged by Mr. Lord, and the meeting concluded by singing the doxo logy. The Archbishop of York has appointed the Rev. Dr Hook, Vicar of Leeds, to a canonry in York Minster. It is reported that Mr. Hume is to replace Mr. Chalmers as member for the Montrose Burghs.

The Roman Catholic Chapel at Walcot, Bath, known as Portland Chapel, has been purchased by the Rev. S. H. iddrington, the rector, under the sanction of the lord bishop of the diocese. and will be immediately converted into a Protestant Episcopal chapel, annexed to the rectory of Walcot. EXPORT OF . MACRINERY.—We were much gratified at witnessing the arrival, at the Broomielaw, on Thursday, of the splendid ship Ganges, to load machinery for Constanti nople.

The Globe, of Tuesday night, says :—" As, in her Ma jesty's present condition , . any undertaking involving anxiety or fatigue might prove mjurious, we understand that Dr. Locock has interposed his veto ; and that the new parlia ment will be opened by commission instead of by the Queen in person." PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION of the law,-and to protect her Majesty's peaceable subjects in the exercise of those privileges with which the constitution has invested them, and which it is their birthrightas freemen to exercise as to their own consciences may seem right, apart from priestly or any other intimidation". (Loud cheers.) The Protestants of Liverpool would not only sympathise with their suffering fellow Protestants in Ireland, but would en deavour to work deliverance for them from the thraldom and tyranny under which they, and even the Roman Catholics themselves, were suffering. If they were now silent and inactive, it might not be long before the evils which they despised, at a distance, should be brought home to their own doors, and they might themselves learn, by bitter experience, the folly of neglect, when it was too late to apply either the antidote or a remedy. (Hear, hear.) The attempts of Itomanism to force upon Irish con stituencies those as their representatives in parliament whom, in the free exercise of the elective franchise, they never would have sent there, had happily been defeated in many instances—(cheers) ;—but while in this there was cause of gratitude to Him by whose overruling providence this good had been effected, it behoved them to petition for some re medy against the late riots in future. STATE OF TRADE MANCHESTER.—There was a better demand for yarn yes terday than for some time past, and a fair amount of business was done, though without the slightest advance upon the low rates which previously prevailed. The goods market was worse than this : the demand was very limited, and no sales could be made except at perfectly ruinous prices. Indeed it has been obvious, for some days past, that large stocks of goods were being sacrificed for such prices as the manufac turers could obtain, without reference to their cost ; and, until these stocks are cleared off, there can be no legitimate demand.— Guardian, Wednesday. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, August 16.—T0-dav, being the wakes, the business done has been more limited than that of the preceding week; but there has been no change in prices. In wool there is no change to report since the last market. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, August 17.—This was much the same sort of market day as last:week. The demand for low and middle-priced woollens still continues ; but the quantity brought to the market is not great, as goods are mostly made to order ; consequently, better prices are re alised in some sorts. Prices are firm in wools ; and business in the warehouses is a little better, and will improve with the fair weather.

INTENSE AFFECTION.—Captain Beaver of the Niagara militia, was possessed of a duck so much attached to him, that the poor animal actually plucked and roasted herself for his dinner, having previously eaten a quantity of sage and onions.—Kentucky Messenger. The law authorities of Sydney have decided that news paper proprietors were justified in continuing the insertion of advertisements, not ordered for any specific number of times, until the same were ordered to be withdrawn. Last week in the island of Jersey, a young gentleman, son of Sir George Clerk, standing on the brink of a rock at Grene de Lec, in company with two friends, was swept off by a wave which dashed in from the sea, when he sank to rise no more. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.—The celebrated case of " Campion v. Drew," for breach oft promise of mar riage, terminated at Cork on Saturday evening, by the jury bringing in a verdict for the plaintiff of £1,500 damages, and 6d costs. Both parties are of the highest respectability in the county, and the trial created much interest. The dam ages were laid at £5,000. A most discordant charivari was given a few days since at St. Martin, France, to a man named Paternelle, who, though only 33 years of age, was married for the fifth time on the Ist instant. • He espoused his first in 1830, his second in 1835, the third in 1836, the fourth in 1839, and the fifth in 1841 ! this last, twenty days only after the demise of his fourth wife. The King of the French, acting in concert with M. Guizor, has decided upon proposing to the four other great European powers, that an armed intervention should take place in Spain in the event of any new outbreak or revolution in that country, of whatever nature it may happen to be. In the court-yard of the fortress of Nuremberg stands an extraordinary relic, the old lime-tree, planted by the Empi ess Cumegunde, wife of the E m p eror enry 111 ; everything is done to preserve it from decay, and it still bears its leafy honours, after beholding the revolution of seven centuries. The following appears in the Dublin Freeman's Journal: —" On Sunday last there was a grand reception in the Con vent of the Sisters of Charity, Stanhope -street ; his Grace the Archbishop presided. Several of the clergy attended, and amongst the spectators was the celebrated Dr. Pussy, who appeared to be deeply interested with the imposing and affecting ceremony." A RECIPE FOR THE RHEUMATISM.—Thirty drops of hartshorn, two large table spoonfuls of the best salad oil ; mix these together in an eight-ounce phial, fill the bottle with spring water, and sweeten it with the best loaf sugar.

JAMES WOOD'S WILL.—Lord Lyndhurst, presiding at the judicial committee of the Privy Council, gave judgment in the appeal against Sir Herbert Jenner's decision respect ing the will of the late Mr. James Wood. He overrules the judgment of Sir Herbert Jenner, establishes the validity of the will, and gives the whole of the immense wealth of the testator to his four executors, subject to the payment of the codicil in favour of the corporation of Gloucester. STRANGE SCENE IN A COURT OF JUSTICE.—At the Croydon Assizes, on Thursday, two men named Watkins and Seton were found guilty, and sentenced to transportation for fifteen years, for attempting to murder a man Darned Collier. The moment Mr. Sergeant Taddy (who presided) had pronounced the sentence, a scene ensued that almost defies description. The prisoners, who are most powerful men, rushed to the front of the dock, and with dreadful oaths declared that they had been " sold like bullocks," and they uttered horrid imprecations upon the judge. Mr. Keene, the gaoler, and one of his assistants laid hold of them and attempted to remove them from the dock, but their ex ertions were of no avail against the greater power of the two prisoners. Inspector Collier, of the P division, and several of his men jumped into the dock, and a desperate struggle then took place, during which some of the constables were kicked and severely injured by the convicts. The court was in the utmost confusion, the women shrieked, and business was completely suspended. A number of bad characters who came into the town in the morning were about the court, and the intention of the prisoners was evidently to incite them to attempt a rescue, but they were awed at the firm demeanour of the police, and did not attempt any violence. The prisoners were at length removed to a strong room, where they were put in irons. EXECUTION OF JOHN SELF FOR THE MURDER OF JEMIMA STIMPSON.—NORWICH, AUG. 14.—From the time of his conviction, Self was unceasingly attended by the minis ters of religion, by the chaplain of the Castle and the curate. Their admonitions and exhortations drew the confession from him which has been already published. His conduct was indicative of penitence to the last. The hill being co vered with stock, the confusion was very great, and for some time there was a total suspension of business. The parents and friends of Self had visited him during the week, to whom he is said to have expressed great penitence and contrition. r hen Precisely as the clock struck twelve t he culprit emerged from the prison door, acco m p anied b y the cha plain and the usual officers.

PITHY AND PLEASANT.-4 recent writer, giving an ac count of British dependencies, thus speaks of Bonaparte's " frightful rock," as he was wont to call it :—St. Helena, oil its first discovery, contained sea-fowls and some seals and turtles, with a forest of trees and shrubs, all peculiar species, with one or two exceptions. It is now a mere rock, devoured by rats !" On Saturday, an engineer employed on some repairs in Mr. Carnions water-mill, Bexley, while in the act of screw ing on a nut to one of the bearings, had his clothes caught by a wheel of 10 feet diameter, and 15-horse power, and which was making 120 revolutions in a minute. He was drawn into the mill, and crushed to death in an instant. The revenue of the Lisbon custom-house for the economic year, from the Ist July, 1840, to the 30th June. 1841, accord ing to the official return, as published in the Diario de Go verno (including 182,540,601 reis, or £41,832 4s 5d sterling, the 15 per cent in favour of the Portuguese flag) amounts to 1,965,085,347 reis, equal to £750,401 4s 6d sterling. Mackerel, which are in large shoals off this coast, are now, though so late, more plentiful than they have been all the reason.

A man named Charles Webb was committed for trial by the Birmingham authorities on Tuesday last, for a postoffice robbery thirteen years ago. The amount he took was £7OO, and upwards of £4OOO was expended upon the pursuit, but he escaped all the activity of the most experienced officers. He ventured to appear in Birmingham last week, when he was immediately secured. NEW LINE OF TELEGRAPH FROM LONDON TO DOVER. — A new line of telegraph from Dover to London is now in rapid progress. A telegraph is erecting for the purpose on the top of the shot-manufactory, at Topping's-wharf, in Tooley-street, Southwark, which will be the London termi nus. Another station on Forest-hill, Peckham Rye, is nearly completed ;''others on elevated spots throughout the line, at Knockholt Beeches, Wrotham, Blue Bell-hill, Chatham, Isle of Sheppy, Whitstable, Herne Bay. Minster, Broadstairs, Deal, and Dover, will be finished in a short time, and in about two months the whole line from Dover to London will be in active operation. The code of signals to be used are those of Lieutenant Barnard Watson, R.N., and this telegraph will be similar to that established between Holyhead and Liverpool, which has been working upwards of fourteen years.—London paper. SUICIDE THROUGH LOVE.—A serjeant in the 60th rifles, named Cullen, committed suicide on Monday, in Beggar's Bush barracks, Dublin, by shooting himself through the head with his rifle. The cause of this act is that a young lady, residing in one of our squares, near the barracks, fell in love with Cullen, and he returned her passion. She pro posed to elope with him, but he being under the apprehension of the punishment usually attached to desertion, applied to his officers for permission to wed the fair one. These gentle men refused their consent,' which had such an effect upon the unfortunate man that he fell into a state of deep despondency, during which he committed the rash act. He placed the gun under his chin, and discharged it through his head, shatter ing it to such a degree that not a trace of his features can be discovered. A letter from Rome supplies the following details of the lamentable consequences of the scene which took place after the 20th ult. :—A woman and two children were found dead on the ground, eight .were mortally wounded, eighty-nine had severe.wounds, which have not proved mortal, ten had limbs broken, and 587 received bruises and others injuries. When the people were cleared away from the spot, there were found upon it 479 men's hats, 99 of which belonged, to abbes and other ecclesiastics; 89 short cloaks belonging to abbes, and two monks' frocks ; 180 women's caps and bonnets, and bonnets, and ten reticules and purses. THE ARMY IN IRELAND.—(From the United Service Ga zette.)—The effective strength of the army in Ireland on the 10th of the present month was as follows, viz. : Rank and file. Royal artillery (horse brigade and battalion).. 841 Five regiments of cavalry (4th, sth, and 6th dragoon guards, 10th royal hussars, and 12th royal lancers) 1,275 Eight regiments of infantry (20th, 29th, 45th, 68th, 84th, 86th, 98th, and99th), and 33 in fantry depots 13,125 15,241 THE SABBATH AND THE RAILWAYS.—The Rev. C. L. Reay, vicar of Svvanbourne, Bucks, has addressed a letter to the Morning Herald, in which, after complaining that on the Croydon railway there are 12 trains daily, whilst on Sun days there are 18, says—" A few days since a long string of railway advertisements fell in my way, containing the times of departure of trains on various lines of road, with the latest changes and arrangements ; and, with a view to ascertain whether the Croydon directors had the sanction of general practice for their extraordinary disregard for the Sabbath, I counted the respective numbers of daily and Sunday trains which the several companies run; the result is as follows : Daily Sunday London and Birmingham . l2 4 Grand Junction Birmingham and Gloucester 6 miles only Birmingham and Derby.... Midland Counties North Midland Manchester and Leeds Great Western l5 8 In all these, there is a considerable decrease in the Sunday labours—to a certain extent the several bodies of proprietors and directors regard the feeling of the country, and acknow ledge the propriety and duty of a day of rest. FANNY ELLSLER p S APPROACHING DEPARTURE FOR EUROPE.—We learn that Mademoiselle Fanny Ellsler, the elegant danseuse, who has created such a sensation, and ob tained such a triumph in the theatricals during the last year, has taken a passage in the Great Western for Europe, to sail next Sunday at noon. She returns partly to close the eyes of her aged father, who resides at Vienna, and is now 72 years of age, having been a pupil of Haydn. Since Fanny Ellsler made her debut in New York, on the 14th of May, 1840, she has danced over one hundred nights, and cleared one hundred thousand dollars—a theatrical career unprece dented in this country. For some time past she has been at the sea shore, to recruit her health and strength, which are now fully re-established. She has had offers from every large city in this country to remain another year; and for three months in Havana she has been offered 50,000 dollars ; but her desire to fulfil her previous engagements in Paris and London, and to visit Vienna, has superseded every other in vitation. Her career through this country has been one of novelty, surprise, wonder, cash, and curiosity, at every step. She returns to Europe covered with the admiration of the New World, and with 100,000 dollars in her pocket, besides wreaths, presents, &c. So farewell to Fanny Ellsler.—New Fork Herald, July 31. CONVOCATION AT EXETER.—At a Diocesan Convocation holden at the Chapter-house of the Cathedral on the 6th of August, the Rev. Dr. Coleridge and the Rev. Mr. Collyns were chosen to represent the diocese of Exeter in the Lower House of Convocation. The Rev. Prebendary Dennis, in a learned and eloquent address, brought before the clergy the present state of our ecclesiastical system, pointing out the innovations and perversions by which it has been so lament ably deranged ; the duties of the canons as assistants of the bishop in the examination of candidates for orders, an office now delegated to an examining chaplain ; the appointment of bishops by the Sovereign —an innovation utterly at variance with the principle and practice of the Church of Christ for the first 1,500 years at least of her existence ; the heavy blow inflicted on the Church by the cutting off tell of her Irish bishoprics; the tyranny exerted over the Church by the silencing her voice in convocation ; the ignorance of ecclesi astical law, even in the ecclesiastical courts ; the Eccesiasti cal Commission ' and the recommendation of the suppression of the primiti ve bishopric of Sodor and Man, which, how ever, the combined exertions of the Church and memory of Bishop Wilson prevented. These and many other topics th% very learned Prebend dwelt on with much eloquence, and appealing to the Canons of the Church, the statutes of the realm, and ancient records, showed how the ancient princi ples and customs of the Church had been violated by modern aggressions and innovations. Prebendary Dennis has em bodied the main points of his address in a petition.— Standard' CONTINENTAL CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD THE BANKS. —At the Croyden Assizes on Monday, before Lord Chief Justice Tyndal and a special jury, an action was brought by Mr. Allen George Bogle, against Mr. John Joseph Lawson, for a libel published in the Times newspaper. The defendant had pleaded first not guilty, and secondly a justification. The article complained of stated that a conspiracy had been dis covered on the continent, by which it was intended to plun der the continental bankers by means of false letters of credit on the bank of Messrs. Glynn and Co. of London ; that the parties, as far as could then be ascertained, were 14 in number, whose names were then given. Amongst them were Cunningham Graham, an anonymous partner in the house of Bogle, Kerrick and Co., and Allen Bogle, son in-law of Cunningham Graham, and chief partner in the house of Bogle and Co. ; there was also the name of the Marquis de Bombel. Then followed the examination of some witnesses taken before the authorities at Florence, and copies of some letters found upon some of the conspirators, direct ing the manner in which the money so raised was to be dis posed of. In one of those letters it is said " that Bogle was to get his share of the money easily, as he would not have much to do in the affair." The defendant withheld the name of the author of this communication, and on his part it was shown that the plaintiff could not deny that Perry, one of the actors in the conspiracy, had, before the authorities of Antwerp, openly accused Mr. Bogle of being concerne d in the conspiracy, and that in certain letters seized by the French authorities, the plaintiff was also charged with being an actor in the conspiracy, and his c onduct was expressly referred to. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages one farthing. The trial occupied thirteen hours. On Tuesday morning the judge refused an application to grant his certifi cate, that the plaintiff might obtain his costs. The conse quence is, that the plaintiff obtains one farthing damages and pays his own costs. THE TWO JOHN WICKLIFFES.—REMARKABLE FACT.— The Gentleman's Magazine for August says—" It is an ex traordinary fact, but not the less true, that there were living at the same period two John Wickliffes, both born aboutthe same time—both educated as ecclesiastics at Oxford, and becoming there the heads of houses, the one of Canterbury, the other of Baliol—both prebendaries, the one of Worcester, the other of Chichester—and both dying within a year of each other. This is the more re markable, as t he name of Wickliffe is a local one, and the onl y locality in England bearing the name is the village about six miles from the town of Richmond, in Yorkshire, where the Reformer is said to have been born in or about 1324. This fact may not only clear him from several apparent inconsistencies of conduct, but from the graver charge preferred by Anthony Wood, Dr. Fell, Bishop of Oxford, and other writers, that the zeal which he displayed in withstanding, the errors of Papacy was occasioned by nothing else than the loss of the w ar d ens hi p of Canterbury Hall, Oxford, of which they say he was first deprived by Archbishop Lanham, and finally by Pope Urban V ; and that " what he afterwards did was merely out of revenge, and not at all of conscience, and that, being a man of good parts, he exercised them to an evil end."

MIDDLEWICH CORN MARKET, Aun. 17. Old Wheat lls gd to 12 6d per 75 lbs; old Oats 4s 6d to 4s 8d per 501bs ; Beans 5s gd to 6s per 60 lbs. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AuG. 17 The good demand and better feeling noticed in our Cotton market yesterday has continued throughout to-day, and about 2500 bales have been sold, some to export and speculators, but the quantities have not transpired. Prices more even than of late, and decidedly a firmer market. COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 18 "The steam is up" and we are •• going ahead," but too fast to be safe, as the high pressure is not yet taken off the Manchester market, which is so to speak, the " safety valve" of the Cotton market in times like these, for though speculators may operate, and that to a great extent, their influence is of a very evanesccent character, and soon spends itself. A much larger business has been done since the weather became decidedly fine and settled. Yesterday 5000 bales, and today nearly 5000; of these exporters have taken 1640 and speculators 2500 bales, leaving a fair supply for the market, which has been bought at about id advance on last week's prices. COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 19 The improved tone and feeling noticed in our market since Mon day still continues, yet the demand is not so great, owing probably to the inability of the trade to give the advanced price of id per lb now g enerally demanded, and in most instances obtained. The quantity sold to-day is 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American have been bought by speculators, and 300 by exporters. Purchasers complain that they cannot get on satisfactorily, and have been com pelled to take Cotton. Ther refused yesterday. SALFORD CATTLE MAKKET, AuG. 18 The show of beasts to-day was about similar to that of last week, though it could hardly be called great for the season. Of Sheep and Lambs the supply was only middling. Good Beef in demand, and realizing 64d to 6id per lb. Middle qualities 6d per lb. Prime Mutton, bid to 7d per lb. Middle and inferior 6d to sid per lb. Lamb 6d to 6id per lb. Very little unsold except very inferior Mutton and Lamb. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, AuG. 17. (From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott ijr Son.) The imports of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland have been to a moderate extent since Tuesday last, but of all other Grain from thence and Coastways, they have been very small. The arrivals of Wheat, and particularly of Flour from Canada and from Foreign ports, continue to be considerable every week. The weather during the past week has been various and un settled ; Wednesday was a very bad day—cold and heavy rain throughout, and although Thursday proved very fine, the excited accounts of the preceding day's transactions in Mark Lane, re ceived that morning, caused a renewed speculative inquiry for bonded Wheat and Fiour, of which considerable quantities changed hands here at an advance on Tuesday's prices of 4d to 6d per ;0 lbs, and of 2s to 2s 6d per barrel, and nearly a similar advance was demanded on those articles free—checked a little, however, by the certainty of Canadian Wheat and Flour, to the extent of about 10,000 quarters, and about 50,000 barrels, being released at the lowest duties on Friday next; Oats were Id to :id per 70 lbs; and Oatmeal Is per 240 lbs. Beans, Peas and Barley, free and in bond, and Malt Is per quarter higher; the last three days have been showery, but with a more seasonable temparature, causing a little dulness in sales here and in Manchester, but not lower prices; re ports continue from the southern districts of England and Ireland of injury having been done to their crops—but not so, hitherto, in this and the northern districts, further than postponing harvest; but we are now approaching a very critical period, and very much depends on the weather for the next four or five weeks. The duty on Wheat from Foreign ports since Friday has decreased Is per quarter, on Flour 7id per barrel, and on Peas Is lid per quarter; on other Grain no change; on Wheat and Flour from Canada the lowest duties of 6d per quarter, and 3d per barrel will be payable on Friday next. The weather having been more favourable this, and the last two days, the above mentioned advance on most articles was barely supported at this day's market, except for Egyptian Beans in bond, which were taken off at 303 per 240 lbs,—the transactions were only to a moderate extent.
