queens' virtues, and with none of their defeC LITERARY NOTICES. Provincial Letters. By G. Stanley Faber, B.D. -London W. E. Painter, 342, Strand We have from time to time had occasion to speak of these letters, which have appeared periodically in the pages of The Churchman, published by Mr. Painter. We have here re printed, in a very neat volume, the first ten of the series ; and to those of our readers, who are desirous of making themselves acquainted with the most abstruse points of the Tractarian heresy, upon which are founded its most dan gerous doctrines, we recommend an attentive perusal of Mr. Faber's present work. To the theologian and the scholar, the name of its author will be a sufficient guarantee of its orthodox character and its learning. Few men have be stowed more unwearied attention and more extensive research upon the very difficult subjects of which he here treats, and with exceeding clearness and perspicacity. And those churchmen, even, who may be infected with the high views —the new lights, or old lights puffed in again—which, amongst a certain class of people in the present day, have becomefashionable, Mr. Faber's testimony cannot be lightly esteemed, inasmuch as the rev. writer is as far as possible removed from the lax or /ou, church principles of which they are in the habit of complaining. It is a common assertion made of the Tracts for the Times, that they are addressed to the learned, or at all events to the educated, amongst churchmen. Again and again has it been said to the Protestant, startled at the system of semi-Popery which be has seen stealing into light around him—amazed at and denouncing the coquetting with Rome and her usages which he has heard and witnessed from Protestant pulpits and before Protestant altars—" Read the Tracts themselves, study their principles, and estimate the unimpeachable lives of their authors, before you condemn !" To the educated man we might be induced to say so too; and we might add, " Read also Me letters of Mr. Faber." There is but one error into which we should fear that an educated churchman could be misled by Tractarian writers—bnt to how many does that one lead! The true church of Christ—the CA THOLIC cuioncu—if we believe the promises of its founder, we must believe to have existed upon the earth without in termission up to the present moment. The Tractarians tell us that that true church has been the Romish church ! They falsify history to prove it ! Upon this ground they build their plea for being reconciled with Rome—for union—for for giveness from " the mother of churches." Upon this ground they denounce the Reformation, because it separated us from Rome and her idolatries. Mr. Faber has ably controverted this dangerous position of the Tractarian party--has cut their fallacies to shreds—has gibbeted their jesuitical falsehoods ; and for such a service he deserves eminently the gratitude of the Protestant church throughout the world, and should be read, as the antidote, by every Protestant who submits him self to the contact of the Tractarian poison. To the unlearned Protestant—to the man who is content to adhere to his Bible and the teachings of hisfait/tful clergy —we say, of the Tracts for the Times," Touch them not." Jesuitical tongues may tell of the learning and piety of their writers ; envenomed tongues may rail upon those who do not choose to crawl to the foot of Rome through the portals of Oxford ; filth may be thrown by such, at those you love and revere ; but still, stand ye fast upon the rock of the Word of God, and upon that only ! The Church of England Quarterly Review. July, 1842. London : W. E. Painter. Liverpool : Waring Webb. The Church of England Quarterly, just published, is one of the best of the series. With one of its articles, especially that entitled " Modern English Monarchy," we have been inexpressibly delighted. The lofty spirit of old English Toryism breathes out in every line ; and we are compelled, as we read it, to sigh over the evidences, which we see and hear around us, of that fainting, half-and-half conservatism, which scarcely dares to breathe to itself a noble sentiment or a chivalrous aspiration, lest they should chance to ruffle the smooth hair of liberalism, or induce to the suspicion of a love for the " old ways" of our venerable constitution, or the wisdom of our ancestors, by whom it was planted and uatered, until it grew up to shed a glory over the land. The article in question is a review of a work entitled " Government from the Queen, and attempted Government from the People," recently published by Henry Drummond, Esq., in which the reviewer boldly throws down and tram ples upon the notion that England is one whit more happy or more virtuous for all which modern enlightenment (!) philosophy, and the progress of liberalised institutions has Hear how nobly he lashes the upsetting anity of the presumption in question! for her " Starting with these principles, Mr. Drummond speedily comes to the conclusion, that " the most brief, and at the same time most accurate, definition of liberalism is, that it is irreligion." This is startling language ; and were it intended to proclaim by it that all liberals are void of religion, it would be as cruel and unjust as startling ; but as tersely describing the practical tendencies and effects of liberalism, we hold it to be strictly true ; from the most brilliant article in the Edinburgh Review, sparkling with the gorgeous splendours of Mr. Macauley's eloquence—from the flippant sneerings of the Globe—from the coarse slang of the Sunday papers— vie have never derived one holy religious thought; all alike speak of men, of earth, the wonders of science, the ingenuity of philosophers, the wisdom of statesmen, the liberties of the people ; these are the themes of liberal eulogium, the objects of liberal investigation. Talk to a liberal, philosophical, lite rary, or otherwise, of faith, humility, rever ence , mysterious ness, and he will laugh at you ; bid him see i n the anointed de scendant of a long line of kings, a being endowed with some thing more than the common dignity of man, and he will quote some miserable sentence from Godwin or the Edinburgh Review, about a petty constable ; bend low to receive a priestly blessing from the lips of the hundred and fifty-third successor of St. Peter and St. Paul, and he will, with learned delight, begin to detail the iniquities of the popes, and the passions of prelates, during what he calls ' the dark ages ;' or if he be of an unusually philosophical turn of mind, he will praise the wisdom of church polity, and rank paro chial clergy in the same category of usefulness with poor law commissioners and rural police ; thus, while professing to raise the state and elevate the ideas of the peole, he is in t h e m, beating them down to p earth and reality lowering chilling each shoot that would fain struggle up to heaven. How different is this vulgar spiptless materialism from the buoyant, chivalrous, souL-stirnng spirituality of by-gone days! And how different, !dos! is the condition of the lower orders now from what it was then. Together with the notion of sacredness in kings and nobles, and all in authority, has departed the kindred notion of their responsibility : together with reverence for the church and her offices, has vanished the joyous celebration of her holydays. The village maypole has disappeared with the uncovered head to the vil lage priest ; and the yule log has ceased to be lighted in the hall with the fealty that bound the carousers to its honoured possessor. Merry England is merry England no longer ; in our teemi ng manufactories, our comfortable houses, our orderly prisons and workhouses, in our poverty-striken, white-washed, and locked-up churches, we plainly read this, that self, mammon, and independence, have driven away from their old haunts among the green woodlands, and smiling valleys, and cheerful villages of England, neighbour liness, charity, and devotion." The utilitarian may sneer at this picture. Heaven help him ! He never saw even the little which still remains of merry England." His smoke-dried, Mammon-calcined heart never bounded as he trod by the bright streams or over the heathy hills which were unprofaned by the blackness and the smoke of dinning worldliness. His foot never en tered the humble cottage under which dwelt humble, guile less, and unperverted souls. A crowd of unsightly chimnies ; muddy streets, passengered by starving, half-clad infants, hurrying to their toil ; wretched furnitureless hovels, sur rounding the splendid gin-palace ; careworn, wretched faces, listening to the ribald fun , of demagogues, or imbibing the infidel trash of socialism and chartism, in an atmosphere of tobacco-fumes and curses—these are the objects from amongst which the utilitarian has constructed the beau ideal of an earthly paradise ! With such a state of squalid wretched ness as this it is that liberalism would cover the lice of that which was wont to be " merry England !" (Ave us back, rather, we say, and so says our reviewer, the wealth of the days of old, which consisted in the fewness of our wants ; give us back the contentment, the dependence of the days of old, which was LIBERTY compared to the real serfdom of men who now boast and philosophise , in r a g s, about " free dom."" inalienable rights," and " equality;" give us the happy heart of the cottager and the yeoman, the patient thrift of the t ra d esman , the liberal hand of the merchant, the Allqa ire, and th e no bl e ; and we would give up with glad nesswhell modern liberalism would present us withal, when it heads up to our view its gaudy picture of the condi tion of the first commercial, e manufacturing, and philosophi cal nation of th e Liberalism h as ; giant strides of late in the spread of her hard utilitarian philosophy —in banishing from the heart of the people of this empire tT th e c hi va l rous sympathies, the love of the beautiful in and thought and deed, the pure p l easur es and healthful aspiri s which characterised society i n bygone times. Our reviewer sanguine in the expecta tion that br i g hter da y s are in store. that the on w ard march of democracy , of Nlalthusian principle and heartless unbelief, ' is about to be arrested. would that we could confidently entertain such a belief, which is thus beautifully expressed by the writer ! be fought, • pride, " The struggle ig to he made, the battle ' not so and amidst all the luxury and crime, and intellectual and irreligion, around us, we say, that the struggle desperate, the battle not so decidedly against'u g s e , , l i s s to prive us of hope. We have still the forms of monarchy— wed have still, " tbank God ! a House of Lords!" an a,,,r, . _ cultural population — a nd above all, we have still among's' o a living witness of God 's p resence, his Church. Let no one' then despair, but let each, in his own place, and after his own way, endeavour to strengthen the hands of the to sove_ reign, to cause more well -merited respect to be paid the aristocracy, to knit the lower orders to those above them and obedience, in the sanctifying bands of responsibility and to cle a r away the obnoxious weeds that at present obstruct the triumphant progress of the catholic church to universal empire. But people will say, "It is too latetings have gone too far; it is the merest dream to talk about divine right, and a submissive people, and a triumphant church ; the time is not propitious for notions such as these." We say, it is propitious. From one end of En g land to the other, the poor people are awaking to a knowledge of the unreality of the shams which are being palmed o ff u p on them underof human names of liberty, and a free press, and the dign it y annature. The aristorracv are o p en ing their eyes to the fact that they privileges to enj have high and holy duties to perform, as well as • others to appreciate,oy. The clergy appreciate, and teach more and more the awful trust that is committed tothem while, " Like some old vision of a fairy bright, Armida, Clarion, or Titantia light,' on the throne of the Athelings, the Plantagenets, the Tudors, and the Stuarts, sits one, round whom may well rally all that remains of chivalrous loyalty, unhesitating obedience, un doubting faith, and uncalculating devotion- 4 one,' in the glowing language of a young senator, ' more simple and unostentatious than Anne, more courageous than Elizabeth, more constant in her attachments than Lary Stuart, more graceful and yueeutike than Mary Tudc all these We thank God, with him, that " we Lords." We have more. We have a rising aristocracy, awe still a House of numbering amongst its members such names as those of ASHLEY, MANNERS, AT AllON—men who, in a frivolous and infidel age, in the midst of the luxury and splendour of their elevated position, in the face of scorners, dare to be religious — dare to profess and exercise a feudal care of the depressed poor of the land ; and with such men to be the leaders in a movement so noble, if we hope with trembling, we dare not despair. _ We have exceeded, in our notice of this article, the space which we had devoted to the remaining portion of the re view. We must, therefore, pass them over with merely re cording our approval of the spirit in which they are written, and the eminent usefulness of some of the topics selected. As one, we may mention, as distinguished by both these characteristics, the article on the Three Sermons of the Church, by the Lord Bishop of London, upon the merits of which we heartily coincide with the reviewer ; and we may here mention, that the discourses in question have been reprinted, in a cheap form, by one of our rectors, for dis tribution amongst his flock. As another, distinguished by the latter characteristic, we may mention the article entitled " School Books." * Speech of the Hon. G. S. Smythe, at Canterbury, 1841 The National Psalmist. By C. D. Hackett. Parts 111., IV., and V. London : Shnpkin, Marshall, and Co. Mr. Hackett progresses with this admirable publication, and, we trust, receives the weed which is his due in the patronage of every lover of English psalmody. In the num bers before us, in addition to several fine melodies from his own pen, and those of many of our most eminent living composers and performers of sacred music, we have a mul titude of fine old tunes—strains which have pealed from the lips of martyrs, which have been sung by the champions of the reformation, and been listened to with holy satisfaction by ears accustomed even to drink in the Circeian melodies with which Rome delighted, and still delights to enchant the senses of her slaves—rescued from absolutely perishing amidst the trumpery ornament with which ignorant and taste less men have loaded them. The noble old melody of " Ha nover," we have here as we have heard it long years ago. Luther's " Old 81st" is here too in its primeval spirit-stirring score. Greene's " Aylesbury" peals its funeral notes upon our ear, solemn and dirgelike ; and, most cherished of all, we have the " Evening Hymn," (Tallis's,) the same noble tune which, twenty or thirty years ago, was wont to be sung before evening prayer in every village church throughout the land, stript of the ballad turns and graces (.') which even then had fastened upon it, and restored to its original chaste and noble notes. We must really urge the adoption of some at least of the old melodies contained in this collection, upon our clergy. There can be nothing worse than the singing, unless it be the music sung, in some of our churches, and especially in those in which congregational singing is practised. We have before remarked upon the cause of this defect. The congregations are lost in the tunes played and sung by the choir. But let any of those melodies be adopted which are familiar, or their airs at least, to most churchgoing people, and we may possibly be able once more to hear music worthy to form a portion of our noble church service, and calculated to increase and give fervour to devotion. By the way, we were not a little amused at the handle which was made by a contemporary a few days ago of this excellent publication, to enable him to have a side fling at the Protestant Church of England, which is distasteful to this professing Tractarian. Puseyism views the National Psalmist as calculated to correct what he in his wisdom is pleased to consider as low church innovations in our Psalmody ! We certainly never heard before that Puseyism had any violent affection for the melodies of our English Reformers —of Luther and others, whose compositions are to be found in this work—or for congregational singing at all. Rome, at least—the " HOLY HOME" of Tractarianism—is not a pattern for Church of England Psalmodists to follow ; for, when it serves her turn, she can jig it with the first of the conventicles. If our contemporary is sceptical upon this point, we beg to refer him to the " Catholic Directory for 18-12," in which is noticed with approbation a volume of Hymns, by a fair writer, set to tunes which are rather a leetle too much for our notions of church music. We copy a verse of one which the reader will please to notice is to be sung to the air of—JESSIE OF DUMBLANE!! " Oh Mary, my mother, most lovely most mild, Look down upon me, your poor weak lowly child ; Behold all my woes, I disclose unto thee, Then Mary, my mother, look down upon me. Oh, what could I do If deserted by you," &c. !! ! Or our contemporary might try it to " Kitty of Cole- " Oh, what could I do, love ? 'Twas looking at you, love," &c. Mr. Hackett, however, will survive the praises of the writer in question. The Sportsman, La Belle Assemblee, and The Farmer's Magazine. Rogerson, Norfolk-street, Strand, London. The enterprising publisher of these three magazines appears determined to maintain his ground. The Sportsman con tains some capital articles of interest, and two beautiful plates —one, entitled" The Road," in which a dashing " four in-hand" is seen going the pace clown hill without a slipper. The other is " Attila," the winner of this year's Derby. The likeness is a very good one. Amongst the literary portion we find articles by Nimrod, The Rough Rider, Touchstone, Roslyn, Cawdor, Captain Harris, Piscator, &c. The Belle has a smart engraving, entitled " The Passion Flower." The literary portion is more than usually excellent, and the con tributions will greatly amuse the gentle sex, for whom the magazine is especially intended. The Farmer has many very good communications, suitable to the season, well worth the notice of the agriculturist. There ought not to be a farm-house in the kingdom without a copy of this magazine being found in it, so much information does it contain. The illustrations are good, as usual. We know not the reason, but these magazines come to hand very late in the month. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL INTELLIGENCE The Rev.

REPORT OF THE COMPROMISE COMMITTEE parliamentary papers delivered on Saturday morning, was the Report of the Select Committee on Elec tion Proceedings. It sustains the calm and dispassionate tone promised by Mr. Roebuck, developing the several cases, not as criminating individuals, but as illustrating a system to be altered. The compromises of Harwich, Nottingham, Lewes, Penrvn, Falmouth, and Reading are explained, in a manner of which the subjoined extract, the case of Notting ham, is the most curious specimen. among the " Your committee also found, that, in the case of Notting ham, at the last general election, the Right Honourable Sir John Cam Hobhouse and Sir George Larpent were returned as duly elected members for that town, Mr. John Walter and Mr. Charlton being the opposing candidates. " That, in consequence of the retirement of Mr. Walter and Mr. Charlton early on the day of the poll, a few only of the electors gave their votes. The state of the poll was as follows : Sir John Cam Hobbouse, Sir George Larpent Mr. Walter Mr. Charlton. 527 529 144 142 " That two petitions were presented against the return of Sir John Cam Hobhouse and Sir George Larpent, by elec tors, on behalf of Mr. Walter. These two petitions, among other things, charged, in various forms, that bribery, corrup tion, treating, abduction of voters, riot, &c., had been prac tised at the election by the sitting members and their agents. A third petition of electors was also presented ; but this petition seems to have been presented by persons in the interest of the sitting members; and, apparently, the object in view was to give, if possible, to the sitting members, an opportunity of making a counter-case against the petitioners. The two first-mentioned petitions prayed only, that the elec tion should be declared void. It was apprehended, that, on the trial of such petitions, no defence, by way of retaliation, would have been allowed ; the third petition, therefore, seems to have been presented in order to let in such evidence. " That, after the appointment of a committee to try the case of the said election, but before the trial thereof, a com promise was entered into between the agents of Sir John Cam Hobhouse and Sir George Larpent on the one part, and an agent, who signed as agent of the petitioners against the re turn, and of Mr. Walter, the defeated candidate, on the other. The terms of this arrangement are set forth in a written agreement, at follows : " (Me'morandum.—London, 4th May, 1842.) " NOTTINGHAM ELECTION PETITIONS. " it is expedient to settle the petitions now pending; and is agreed that " 1. All the petitions shall be abandoned. " 2. Within four days from this date one seat shall be vacated. _ The sum of £lOOO to be paid to Messrs. Clarke, Fynmore, and Fladgate, within seven days from this date, in consideration of the expences incurred in the petition. " • It is understood that Mr. Walter is to be returned at the election resulting from the above-mentioned vacancy; for security whereof, it is agreed that Lord Rancliffe, Mr. Wakefield, Mr. John Heard, Mr. Enfield, Mr. Biddle, Mr. Hurd, Mr. Birkin, Mr. Wells, Mr. Hart, Mr. Alfred Fel lowes, Mr. Henry Leaver, Mr. Bean, Mr. Jonathan, Burton, Mr. George Bacon, and Mr. Aulton, shall not di rectly or indirectly oppose Mr. Walter at such election, and that, in addition, Mr. Wakefield shall discourage all opposi tion on the part of the persons named in the list copied on the other side of this paper. _ _ _ _ " That a proniis;ory note for £4OOO, signed by Sir John Com Hobhouse or Sir G. De H. Larpent. at one month from this date, shall be this day deposited with Messrs. Cocks, Biddulph, and Co., bankers, London ; and that James Bacon, Esq., and Sutton Sharpe, Esq., shall decide whether the above conditions have been honourably fulfilled ; and if such referees (or, in case of their disagreement, an umpire ap pointed by them) shall decide that such conditions have not been honourably fulfilled, then the promissory note in ques tion shall be handed to Mr. Walter, or returned to Sir John Cam Hobhouse or Sir George G. De H. Larpent if such conditions have been honourably fulfilled. 6 ` DYSON, HALL, and PARKES. " Agents to Sir J. C. Hobhouse and Sir George G. De H. Larpent. " W.M.

" One mouth after date I promise to pay to my own order the sum of £4,000 for value received. " JOHN C. H. " At Messrs. Jones, Loyd and Co., bankers, London. Messrs. Cocks, Biddnlph, and Co., bankers, London.' 0 ' "The annexed promissory note for £4,000, given by the Right Hon. Sir John Cam Hobhouse, Baronet, is to be de livered up to James Bacon, Esq., and Sutton Sharpe, Esq„ on demand made by them to you. " 4th May, 1842. " DysoN, HALL, and PARKES. " 43, Craven-street, Strand, 7th May, 1842. " Dear Sirs,—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your check for £l,OOO for share of costs as arranged. " Yours very faithfully. " W. M. FLADGATE, for partner and self, " Mess. Dyson, Hall, and Parkes.' " The circumstances which induced the agents of the sitting members to enter into this agreement are stated to have been-1. The fear that both sitting members would be unseated for bribery and treating, committed by their agents. 2. And, also, the dread of the enormous expense that must necessarily have been incurred, with small hopes of success. " That the number of electors was 5,400. " That the sum expended in the election, on the part of Sir John Cam Hobhouse and Sir George Larpent, was £12,000. Of this sum a very lare part was expended in an illegal manner; some in direct bribery, some in treating and other unlawful proceedings, without the personal cognisance of the candidates. See the whole evidence of Mr. Charles Parkes, Mr. Thomas Wakefield, as well as that of Mr. Flad gate. The expenditure on the part of the opposing candi dates appears to have been about £4,000 or £5,000. The expense was thus comparatively small, because the poll was not taken ; and it is stated, that the bribery of voters and other illegal practices, in this interest, were thus rendered unnecessary. It is clear, that this system, on the one side and the other, was the same, which system arose in some of the preceding elections, and was parricularly developed at that of April, 1841." The evidence in the case of Bridport is not printed, as the witnesses could not be prevented from giving it a strongly personal turn. The report on it affirms the main facts as the public already understand them, the points in dispute between the several parties having related to the personal conduct of the disputants. The report states in every instance that, for the most part, bribery had taken place—that the actual members were not immediately cognisant of it, and that a compromise had ac tually been entered into between the contending parties. At Harwich, A huge part of the whole constituency are bribed, ' but' the sitting members most distinctly state that neither before nor during the election had they any personal cognizance of any bribery and corruption," At Nottingham, " The sum expended in the election on the part of Sir J. C. Hothouse and Sir G. Larpent was £1 9 ,000 ; of this sum a very large part was expended in an illegal manner, some in direct bribery, same in treating, and other unlawful proceed ings, without pe r son a l cogn i zance o f th e candidates." On the Conservative side, at the same place, it is said that the bribery of voters and other illegal practices were rendered unnecessary, because the poll was not taken : the system, however, being alleged to be the same on both sides. At Lewes, of £5,000 spent by the wing candidates, £2,000 went in treating, and about £1,200 or £1,500 in direct bribery —the members again not personally cognizant. The con servatives own at expense of £2,000, but deny any direct bribery. At Reading, the ante z imputation is again denied by all parties ; but the sums spent ark allowed to be too large to have gone fairly. At Penryn and Pal:Mouth. bribery is admitted by the agents of both sides, under a disclaimer frorn Captain Plumridge. At Bridport, the committee " cannot doubt" that " extensive and systematic bribery" was pra'- tised by the partisans of Messrs. Cochrane and Mitchell, Mr. Warburton solemnly abjuring any participation therein. The compromises are returned as emanating pretty much from the same motives in all the different eases, (as, indeed, how should they emanate from any other ?) viz., the appre hension that J - , , oth sitting members might be unseated, and the dread of the enormous expense now incident to these proceedings. The Reading, Nottingham, and Harwich com promises 4re peculiar in binding the sitting members to the performance of their contracts by bonds to a large amount ; and Lewes in having had the good fortune to have been transacted out of hand under the sanction, or at least by the authority, of the election committee appointed to try the return. This tact, by its good lurk in this respect, and by the very ingenious management which it had the benefit of from Mr. J. Parkes, as detailed by himself, attracts the peculiar reprobation of the committee, who " invite the serious attention of the house to the mode in which the stipulations of this agreement, so far as regards alterations of the poll, were craried out." The two remaining compro mises present no peculiarity here worth remark. DISTURBANCES IN THE MINING DISTRICT OF SHROPSHIRE BIBNIINGIIANI, FRIDAY EVENING. — On Wednesday night last large bodies of colliers assembled in the district between Wellington and Shiffnal, and commenced visiting the mines, compelling the men to leave their work, and in some instances cutting the ropes and otherwise injuring the machinery. Information of these outrages having been dispatched to the Earl of Powis, that nobleman lost no time in collecting a sufficient body of the South Shropshire yeomanry, which he headed, and immediately set out from Shrewsbury for the disturbed district. In the mean time the county police, under Captain Mayne, and Captain Whitemore's troop of yeomanry cavalry, had proceeded to Prior's Lee, the chief scene of the disttabances, where they arrived after midnight and found that the collicrg in many of the pits bad been compelled to leave off work, and that the machinery at Old Park, Donnington Wood, &c., had been stopped and injured. The violence, it appears, had been done some hours previously by small bodies of men, most of them headed by strangers to the district, who had succeeded in inducing a number of the colliers out of employment, or nu short time, to join them, as the most effectual plan of obtaining full work and a return to the old prices. The rioters having received information of the measures adopted by the magistrates to put a stop to the proceedings, dispersed before the arrival of the yeomanry and police, expressing, however, their determination to assemble next morning for the purpose of visiting the rest of the mines, and putting a stop to all the works In the district. This threat, it is un necessary to say, they were prevented putting into e - ,;ccution by the timely arrival of the force sent against them, only a few stragglers having mustered in the neighbourhood at the appointed time, and these speedily dispersed, on finding that of the men who had led them on th e prev i ous even i ng had de camped. During the night th e yeomanry and police scoured the w ‘, l v i e o r l e e iodfenthtie:eddisatrsicbta,vainngd beentoo leaders fivek personsthe into nn who l custody,were removed last night under a strong escort to Shrewsbury Gaol. The magistrates have issued a notice, expressing their de termination to use the most prompt and effectual measures for putting down any further attempt which may he made to disturb the peace of the district, and at the same time warn ing the colliers and workmen of the folly and danger of such proceedings. Indeed, all apprehension of any further attempt at violence seems to have ceased, for the yeomanry sent into the district have returned to their quarters, and the men who were compelled to join the turn -out have resumed work. The number of colliers out of employment has, I under stand, been consider abl y increased during the last few weeks,y the sto ppage of works in this district. 3.—Last week between an officer and Tgrib(o2t7ii•liTiolClt'etjuu theAre a travelling Catholic priest,. the result of which was not a P w i z t t i s E a s Ti t; lie inl our L n i s s i little astonishing, as the priest knew how to manage the sa bre as skilfully as if it ever was wielded by any of th e p re l ates of the middle -ages, w h o often distinguished them se l ves b y their personal bravery in the imperial levees. Di n i ng in a tavern with several officers, the conversation, at first quite harmless, took a turn w hich offended the priest. lie stood stop up and was about to go away. A young insult to the whole company, for which he ought to apologise. A struggle com menced, which ended in an apneal to the sword. The priest disarmed his antagonist twice withopt shedding a drop o f blood. At last, as the young officer constantly returned to the charge, the priest gave him a severe cu t on the head, which put an end to the combat. A surgeon dressed the wounded youth, and he will soon recover. Yearly 1055...... 4000,000 Commercial loss up to the'present period 37,000,000 Expenditure for warlike preparations up to the present period 30,600,000 Cost of the secret operations of the Foreign office up to the present hour 67,600,000 Such is the financial result of Lord Palmerston's successes ; so many millions drawn from our means of production—so many millions expended in warlike measures ; and this with out the tiepessity of war, or any of its benefits. War would at once have oeneto qs the commend of the commerce of the seas, and furnished to us the nears for its prosecqtion. Is it possible that such drains upon our resources, and such expenditure of our means, can take place without occasioning misery and distress ? And then when these results are brought upon us, English statesmen, or at least men calling themselves and called statesmen, are occupied in discussing internal questions, which have not altered while this change has been brought upon us ! It is no change of laws or constitution that can save Eng. land. It is the execution of the law that alone can save her; and why make laws when we neither understand nor enforce those which we possess ? If it were a solitary instance of neglect, or a solitary case of injury, there might be then, indeed, hope that, by exposing the fact, our condition would be retrieved, But such an exposition as we here make al most proves our hopelessness, because all spirit must have been extinct in a nation whose annals exhibit such an amount as this of unexamined malversation and unpunished crime; in other words, the representatives of the nation who have suffered in silence these things, will not be, cannot be, the men to redeem the past and to recover us. But such facts as these placed before the eyes of the nation itself, whose generous confidence relieved itself from care by conceiving that it had imposed upon others responsibility, may arouse it for the future to take care and to impose a real responsi bility, whether upon the government that has misruled, or the representatives that have neglected. * Imposition of the tariff of France in violation of our anterior treaties with the Regency of Algiers. t A treaty has been established after Persia has been en tirely given over to Russia, and aftq n g land has been brought back for her owq ends. The loss it is convenient to calculate in all these cases only from the period when a practical measure was prepared. § Three hundred and eighty-four British ships were at once thrown out of employment by the differences with Naples. (See Mr. Macgregor's Report, p. 4.) Russia be netitted to the amount of above a million sterling by the ex istence of the difference between Naples and England, as affecting the price of her tallow and the amount of the export. II Russian trade in Central Asia has been doubled, and £7,000,000 of specie has been carrie4 into that country and deposited there, to assist in carrying on the trade, "The month of July has been remarkable," says the Courrier Francais, "for striking events in French history. In July, 1789, occurred the destruction of the Bastile ; in July, 1830, the revolution and t h e expulsion of the eldest branch of the Bourbon family ; in July, 1835, the infernal machine of Fieschi ; in July, 1811, the Duke of Bordeaux fell from his horse, and broke bis leg ; and, in July, 1842, the death of the Duke of Orleans." FATAL ACCIDENT ON TILE CRPirDQN AND BRIGHTO N RAILWAY. — MISCONDUCT OF 4 PASSENGER. —On Sunday night, while the train which left Croydon at 20 minutes past 6 was proceeding over Croydon Common, a gentleman was observed to get out of the third cla ss carriage, and aft er walking over the tops of two carriages, at imminent d anger of his life, the train going at a rapid rate at the time, seated himself on the roof of a first class carriage.

CIRCASSIA—By sacrifice of rights of commerce since 1831, yearly export loss. POLAND—By sacrifice since 1831 of com mercial rights secured by treaty of Vienna, yearly GREECE—By sacrifice of rights of Bri tish bondholders of two first loans, say £3,000,000 By payment of subsidy in violation of act of parliament, say £600,000 By fraudulent accounts presented to par liament, say £370,000 By sacrifice of anterior right of export and import, at three per cent. duty, yearly Aggregate... — 5,00,0000 Russo-DUTCH Lo AN—payment of after declaration of law officers of the Crown that no obligation to Russia was binding, Russia having violated her treaties with England, aggregate 3,500,000 COAST OF AFRlCA*—Sacrifice of the right of export and import at five per cent. from 1834 ..

The yearly sacrifice here estimated is of exports only : but we must calculate that at least as much of return trade is also sacrificed, that is to say, that our aggregate trade would in the present year present a difference in our favour, not of seven, but fourteen millions, had it not been for the means taken by a secret department of the Government to counteract the measures of its servants, and to violate the rights belong ing to Britain. Of this sum at least five millions may he estimated as going in labour to British artisans, so that two millions of souls have been annihilated by these secret acts, or penury and starvation brought on the body of our artisans. We have here, then, positive loss of ten millions expendi ture, and five millions profit, as complete as if goods or grain to that amount were built up in the pyramids and set on fire ; that is to say, we have every year fifteen millions of complete and absolute sacrifice in consequence of the direct acts of Viscount Palmerston, late Chief Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, in whom the Parliament bad such im plicit confidence that they never questioned anything he did —admitted contradictions from his own lips without any desire to enquire further, knowing that he concealed from them ever thing he was about—and every result of whose policy has been in contradiction to his avowed intention. Lord Palmerston interfered in every quarter of the globe, by every process that human ingenuity could devise, and in every point, on every field, brought failure, disgrace, shame, loss upon Britain, her friends and her interests! The home cost of these unheeded Acts is fifteen millions yearly sacri fice, a sum sufficient to maintain seven millions of human beings at the rate at which our poorer artisans are supported, to convulse the whole structure of society, drain it of its resources, cover it with a cloak and a cloud of penury and disgrace ; yet, the senate, the British Parliament, neither having care for nor comprehending the acts leading to these results, is now brawling out "corn laws!" When the late Administration came into office in 1830, with peace and retrenchment as their motto, it became their duty so to direct the affairs of Europe that there might have been an opportunity of decreasing our military establish. meats ; they decreased those establishments without per forming such condition precedent, and then by mismanage ment of external policy, excused a sudden and expensive augmentation of our army and navy. Thus our expenditure for that purpose, which previously to open wars commenced, cost — By increase of warlike means up to 1838 £8,000,000 By the setting aside of the award of the King of Holland (consequent insecurity in North America and difficulties with the United States) a large expenditure was incurred by England, and imposed upon our North American colonies, which we have not the means of calculating. By operations against China within the last two 1,800 000 years ..........

JULY 23 On the 19th and 25th we had a :ieavy fall of rain, but with this exception the weather since our last has been, and continues to be, everything that •can be desired. Though supplies of Grain &c. from Ireland, and coastwise, are trifling, this is more than com pensated for, as regards Wheat and Flour, by large arrivals from Foreign and Colonial ports, upon the whole of which the importers are prepared to pay duty ak sales are effected. Business during the week has been confined t• - _, the supply of the wants of needy buyers, who have been enabled to Purchase most articles at prices gradually declining from our quotations of this day, week. At our Corn Exchange this morning, though alt descriptions of Wheat might be purchased at a redUction 4d to 6d per bushel, no in clination is shown to pur chase bey and what is absolutely necessary. The same may be said of Flour, all qualities of which, except the finest English manufacture, which nearly maintains former rates, arc Is to 2s per sack and band fewer. Best supplies of Oats and Oatmeal Id per bushel and 6d per load cheaper, whilst the value of secondary and inferior sorts is quite nominal. Beans slow of sale, and the turn cheaper. Malt unaltered in value, but in very limited demand. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, JULY 25.

OOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 22 The demand for Cotton to-day has been only moderate, and the market has subsided into a state of languor evi denced by the desire to effect sales at late prices. -- Thesale;OftlTe;veek are large, say 37,990 bales, of which exporters have taken 3,000 and speculators 11,800 bales.

On Saturday 6000 bales were sold, and to-day 5000, ,early all to the trade. In prices we make no alteration, they COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT In the early part of the week speculators and exporters purchased very freely , and the market was firm, with more confidence on the part of holders than for some weeks past. During the last few days the demand for speculation and export has been less active, but the trade have operated freely, and with a fair assortment offering, prices have undergone no material change, but are firm at the last quotations. 11,560 American and 300 Surat have been taken on speculation, and 1200 American and 1800 Madras for export.

JULY 22 The duty for the ensuing week is reduced to Bs. 6d. on Foreign, and ls. per qr. on Colonial Beans ; to 9s. 6d. on Foreign, and is. per qr. on Colonial Rye; remaining un changed on all other articles of import. The supply of Wheat from the Baltic and Mediterranean is again to a large extent, amounting within the past three days to nearly 18,000 quarters ; the imports from Canada include about 11,000 barrels Flour, but we have no fresh arrivals of any Grain produce from the United States, and those coastwise and from Ireland continue very insignificant : at the same time the market has been very amply supplied with samples from granary, the prevalence of exceedingly fine weather in our own district, with corresponding reports from all parts of the country of the rapid approach of the crops towards maturity, inducing a more free disposition than of late to pay duty upon Wheat and Flour where sales were practicable ; the same cause, however, has effectually limited the operations of buyers, and lower prices would have been taken to make progress, particularly of parcels still on board ship. There was a large display of Wheats offering at this morn ing's market, which, upon a middling attendance of buyers, met a slow limited sale, at a decline of 3d. per 701bs. from the rates of Tuesday last. Flour was also taken off sparingly, and most be noted 6d. per barrel cheaper. Beans have again receded in value, is. • Boiling Peas, ls. ; and Feeding Peas, 2s. per quarter, with little doing in either article. The quantity of Oats at hand, especially of fine quality, being small, our last currency was realised in the few trans actions that took place. In Oatmeal very little was done, and prices a shade lower, though not sufficiently so to alter our quotations. The bonded market ha: in the course of the week have been sold at 28s. tt 1500 qrs. of hard Wheat, emained almost wholly inactive ; ) to 1000 barrels of States Flour 6d.-'and to-day a parcel of warehouse, has changed hands.
