ASAPH, 'rugspAY.—Soon after ten o'clock on Mon day night it was discovered that Lady Dinorben's dressing room was on fire, and that the flames had already gained some height. Immediately after the discovery an alarm was given throughout the mansion, and happily none of the domestics had retired to rest, so that they all directed their efforts to quench the flames, but we regret to add without effect. The devouring element had obtained such an ascendancy as to baffle all the endeavours of the inmates ; and from there not being any fire-engines for many miles round, nothing could be done to arrest the fury of the fire, which continued its de vastating ravages until five this morning, leaving the superb mansion and its costly furniture a heap of ashes. The fire appears to have originated through the careless• ness of her Ladyship's maid leaving a candle too near the fur niture of the dressing-room. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Capua were to leave Richmond early in the ensuing week, for the purpose of staying several weeks with the noble lord and lady, and other visitors were also in vited. It will be a serious loss to his Lordship, for it is said the whole of the property was uninsured, and it is computed that £35,000 will not cover the damage done. The inhabitants of Llan St. Siors, Abergele, and St. Asaph were greatly alarmed, the conflagration, illuminating the country for many miles around, and though hundreds of per sons were willing to render all the assistance possible, their exertions could not prove of the slightest use. The furniture and other property saved are comparatively small to that which fell a sacrifice to the flames, and we un derstand the family plate is buried in the ruins, as also her Ladyship's jewellery. The greater part of his lordship's valuable library and MSS. were rescued at an'early stage of the fire, as we are informed. Lord and Lady Dinorben have been obliged to take up their residence at his lordship's land-steward's, Mr. Mur ray's. Lady Gardner, who was staying with her noble father, has lost everything, and is compelled to sleep at the dairy for the present. The servants of the establishment have had all their ap parel consumed. _ . . . Another account says that the fire was first seen issuing from the sleeping apartment of Lady Dinorben, between 9 and JO o'clock on Monday night. The Pengwinn engine shortly after arrived, and played over the iron and stone room, where the plate was kept, and the whole contents of that closet were safely removed and conveyed to Sir J. Wil liams's residence, at the end of the park. By this time the flames had ascended to the copper roof, but the state apart ments and the lower rooms were yet safe, which enabled the spectators to remove the pictures, the books, and nearly all the furniture from the state apartments, the dining, and also the servants' room below. Her ladyship's jewellery was en tirely preserved. Nothing now remains of this vast edifice but the massive marble pillars of the great hall. The copper from the roof poured down in sheets of liquid tire. The house was commenced by the father of his lordship in the year 1780, and finished in 1783. Since that time the present owner has added to the pile several rooms and out-offices, comprising upwards of 50 beds for strangers. The gentry and peasantry were all completely knocked up by incessant exertions during the night. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE (From the Oxford Herald.) The Rev. T. B.

ALBAN'S, MONDAY, Oc 4.—This morning this town and neighbourhood was thrown into a state of great excitement by a report that a young woman had been mur dered at an obscure public-house, called the Bout, by a sol dier, with whom she cohabited. On inquiry, it was found that there was but too much foundation for the report ; for, although the girl is not dead, the injury she has received is so great that but slight hopes are entertained of her recovery. At twelve o'clock Mr. Rumball, the mayor, and Messrs. Lipscombe, Coles, Osbaldiston, and Kinder, borough ma gistrates, assembled at the Town-hall to investigate the at'- fair. The accused party was in custody. His name is ,labez Kirk ; he is about 18 years of age, belongs to the 74th regi ment of foot, and presented a most unprepossessing appear ance. The following evidence furnishes the main facts of the case : _ _ TOTAL DESTRUCTIO Or KINMEL,•HALI FURTHER ARTICULARS THE CORN LAWS The Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel's " Plea for the Poor," while it has been profitable to himself, has been far from un profitable to the cause of truth. It has brought forth " Fifty Searching Questions," addressed to the Rev. Chaplain of Royalty, and "intended as an Antidote to his recent dange rous and exciting Pamphlet," from " A Clergyman of the United Church of England and Ireland." These questions are eminently qualified to disabuse the unthinking of many popular anti-corn law fallacies ; and to render the antidote still more efficacious they are published in a form rivalling Mr. Noel's " Plea" in cheapness. Their extensive circulation would, we think, be serviceable to re move error. The following are specimens of these searching interrogatories :- 1 DOES THE LANDLORD'S SHARE OF THE FOUR-POUND LOAF EXCEED ONE FARTHING AND A HALF? 2 If the landlords were thrown into the sea, and the land to be enjoyed rent free, conld the four-pound loaf be reduced by more than that amount? _ _ 3. Is not the material—the raw material (as it were—viz., the threshed wheat) —produced when wheat is at the high price of 655, at 6d a loaf? 4. Do not the miller, the baker, and the speculator, divide the remainder amongst them ? 5. Then what becomes of your charge against the land lords, implied in the inflammatory use you have made (in p. 14) of the text, " He shall judge the poor of the people ; He shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor 1 I" 6. Do not you advocate the repeal of the corn laws on the ground that it will cheapen bread ? 7. Does not Mr. M'Culloch, your own advocate, as stated in your pamphlet, aver that it will not cheapen bread, for that foreign wheat cannot be sold under 50s. to 545. a quarter ? 8. Does not the quarter of wheat produce one hundred and thirty 4-lb loaves; and is not that, at 505., within the smallest fraction, fourpence three farthings a loaf ? 9. Then, at a very high price of British wheat (655.,) and the lowest price, according to Mr. M'Culloch, of foreign wheat, would the difference in a 4-lb loaf to the poor man be more than one penny farthing ? 10. Do you think that the poor man would accept this re duction (even if it were a certainty, which it by no means is, for British wheat, under the present system, is sometimes as low as 405.) at the risk of having his wages materially lowered, by the influx of six millions of agriculturists, or a great pro portion thereof, thrown out of employment by the non cultivation of British land ? 11. What, then, becomes of your cry for cheap bread ? Is it not a delusion ? 12. What too, becomes of the manufacturer's cry, '• Cheapen food; you will thereby cheapen labour, and en able us to compete with the foreigner in manufactures ?" is it not moonshine? We may had, that to the second issue of this brochure, an appendix is added, containing a candid and spirited reply to a private letter addressed by Mr. Noel to the writer. THE WESLEYAN CONFERENCE The following resolutions appear in the " Minutes of Con ference" for the present year : " LAW OF MARRIAGE " Q. 28. What is the judgment of the Conference as to duty of members of our societies in reference to the present law of marriage ? " A. 1. That, in unison with the general stream of autho rities, in both the Jewish and Christian churches, the eccle siastical law of this country, ever since the epoch of the reformation, has affirmed the degrees of consanguinity and affinity, within the limits of which the Divine Lawgiver has prohibited marriage, to be such as are expressed or implied in the 18th chapter of Leviticus ; and that, therefore, such marriages alone are Godly and agreeable to the laws' which are contracted between persons not included in those prohi bitions. . " 2. That, from the same auspicious period to the year 1835, the civil or political law of England has adopted the ecclesiastical view which is before stated concerning marriage, by regarding all marriages within such prohibited degrees as voidable by the ecclesiastical courts on proper process, com menced during the lives of the contracting parties ; and since the year 1833, by pronouncing all such marriages actu ally void, without the interposition of any legal process whatsoever. " 3. That, on the great New Testament principle of sub mission to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake, the Conference is solemnly of opinion that the members of our societies are bound by the law of Christ to conform them selves in all arrangements concerning marriage to the insti tutions of their country ; and especially because, in the very form of their enactment, there is a national recognition of the authority of the Divine will, as made known to mankind in the Holy Scriptures. " 4. The Conference, moreover, deemed itself now called upon to declare, that by no means comely, nor of good re port, for members of our societies to repair to certain parts of the United Kingdom, or to foreign countries, in the hope of there finding facilities for contracting marriages within the prohibited degrees, and without any intention of fixing their permanent residence in those countries." FRIENDSIIIP. — Thou may'st be sure that he that will in private tell thee thy faults is thy friend, for he adventures thy dislike, and doth hazard thy hatred ; for•there are few men that can endure it ; every man, for the most part, delighting in self-praise, which is one of the most universal follies that bewitcheth mankind.—Sir Walter Raleigh. - - - " THE MAN OF THE PEOPLE."—At Manchester, on Monday last, Feargus O'Connor addressed large groups in a temperate speech. He was dressed in a fust►an jacket and trousers, in order that he might appear as much as possible to be a " man of the people.' - • - -- - - - Our manufacturers of late years have become positively insatiable; their avarice is unbounded—their powers of pro duction have increased two hundred fold—their means of transit facilitated to an extent that has almost annihilated time and space • three-fourths of the property that has changed hands during the last ten years, has got into their possession ; where they formerly lived prosperously on one thousand per annum derived from their business, they now drain ten; they have west-end houses, and country houses, and villas at the sea-side, and yet they are still unsatisfied ; we firmly believe Mammon has so completely blinded them, that to expect them to pause in their unholy crusade against every other class, would be to expect a miracle.

On entering the house, the landlord informed him that a soldier had commit ted murder in his house. On going up stairs to a bedrdom, the prisoner met him at the door, and said, " Lacy, take me ; 1 have cut her throat," pointing at the same time to the girl Pearce, who was lying on a bed in the room the prisoner came out of. Witness immediately seized him by the two wrists, and sat him on another bed in the same room. He trembled very much, and the upper part of his person was covered with blood. He had no shirt on, only his trousers and shoes. His face was so much covered with blood that he could scarcely distinguish his features. There was no blood on his trousers. Witness asked the prisoner what he had done it with ? He replied, with a razor, and that it was on the bed where the woman was lying. He looked among the bed clothes for the razor, but could not find it, when Jane Pearce pulled the bed a little up as well as she could, and between the bed and the =tress he found the razor he pro duced. [The witness produced the razor, which was covered with blood.] He asked the prisoner if he had any reason for committing the act, but lie shook his head, and made no answer. The prisoner also pointed out to witness his shirt. On being produced, it was found to be covered with blood, and very much torn. The quantity of blood on the left side was the greatest. The prisoner washed himself in witness's presence, but had no wounds on his own person. He saw Jane Pearce lying on a bed with her throat very much cut. There was also a cut on the right arm, another on the right hand, and several more on her left shoulder, while the bed and the room bore ample traces of the prisoner's crime. Several other witnesses spoke to many other necessary facts, and the prisoner was remanded for farther examina tion. THE CASE OF M‘LEOD (FROM THE NEW YORK INTELLIGENCER.) On Saturday, ex-President Adams delivered a speech upon the resolution concerning the case of M'Leod, which capti vated the attention of the house to a degree that might be expected from the position of that distinguished member, and his known familiarity with every thing that concerns the foreign relations of the United States. Mr. Adams first spoke of the apparent party aspects and objects of the reso lution before the house, and the debate in favour of it, and of the strong condemnation which that conduct merited which sought to make profit to a party, regardless of conse quences, out of a question which involved, or might be made to involve, the issue of peace or war with a country perhaps the most powerful on the globe. He then proceeded to say he was opposed to multiplying issues with Great Britain. We had one issue with that country (he was understood to refer to the boundary question) where we were clearly in the right, and she was clearly in the wrong ; and if we must fight, we had better fight about such a question than about one where we were in the wrong. For he desired to declare in the face of the country and the world his opinion, that in regard to the affair of the " Caroline," a due consideration of all the circumstances might lead to the conclusion that we were in the wrong. The question was, and always would be, who struck the first blow ? The British, it is true, burnt the boat and killed a man. But the question is, what was the boat about, and what was the man doing in the boat? The boat was engaged in hostile acts against Great Britain ; it was employed in transporting men and arms to Navy Island, in aid of an insurrection against the British authori ties in Upper Canada. We might go to war on this matter ; and, after the blood and treasure of the nation had been expended in support of it, we should have a peace. And what then? The question would still be, who struck the first blow? And were we sure we could find among all the Christian nations an umpire, who would not say that we had been all the while in the wrong ? TOMKINS'S LETTER TO JENKINS, ON THE MANCHESTER CONFERENCE AND THE CORN LAWS (From Blackwood's Magazine for October.) Dear Jenkins,—'Tis long since I wrote you a letter, For which there are reasons—some bad and some better; But I feel myself forced to unbosom my cares, By the present position of public affairs. The ministry, Jenkins, were not worth a thought, But the measures that lately before us were brought Demand on some points this familiar address, Independent of what I may write for the press ; For a pamphlet would pay, whether lumb'ring or limber, With the title of " Tomkins on treacle and timber." The event of the day is our great convocation, To express the dissenting desires of the nation ; And ne'er since the ark, if the truth be confess'd, Entertain'd every species of beast in her breast, Have there met such distinctions of horn and of hoof, Such a motley menagerie, under one roof. We had Presbyter, Papist, Socinian, and Quaker, Quite unable to join in a prayer to their MAKER, Yet as Christian divines here assembled together, To inflame discontent, and to wish for bad weather. What an atmosphere hover'd all over the place, Showing equal abundance of grease and of grace ! What an odour of sanctity rose on the breeze, Intermix'd here and there with that strong smell of cheese, Which we friends of free trade often strangely exhale, From our last night's debate over Cheshire and ale! The whole thing was imposing—at least HEAVEN knows There were plenty among us who tried to impose. By-the-by our friend Stiggins was found every day At the Temperance Tavern well moistening his clay ; And few wonder'd to see how he stagger'd along, When the flesh was so weak and the spirit so strong. I had almost omitted the chartist dispute, Which had very near pluck'd all our plans by the root. But 'tis now quite arranged for our next celebration, That we throw the door open and waive revelation ; So that Socialist, Southcotist. Gipsey, and Jew, With each sect and division of Turk and Hindoo, Indeed all who believe in a god—or a goddess, Be it mere naked REASON, all neck and no boddice— Shall be suffer'd to spout, and invited to vote, Without any distinction of creed or of coat. It is thought that as yet it would scarcely be civil To have such as confess to adoring the devil, Though some hundreds were here, who, without any gammon, Make scarcely a secret of worshipping Mammon. The harangues of our speakers were well worth attending, And the pictures they painted were truly heart-rending. I Stiggins told us of many a family board, 1 Where of old he was oft entertain'd like a lord, But, though one of the few whom they still kept a place for, He now found the dinners not worth saying grace for. Rich church-going folks might be pleased with their fate, But dissenters were all in a pitiful state. It would really have melted the ribs of a rock, Thus to hear the good shepherd bemoaning his flock ; Never hinting (to construe his words by the letter) That he wish d the sheep fatten'd to fleece them the better. In the course of discussion one point was made clear : That if corn became cheaper 'twould not be so dear. Perhaps nothing else was conclusively proved, But from that proposition we cannot be moved. Yet stay ! we demonstrated also, I'm sure, That in this cursed country some persons are poor ; And that, if both your cash and your credit are fled,. There are few who will sell you beans, bacon, or bread. Here perhaps you exclaim, "Why we knew this before, And your friends have done nothing unless they do more !" But Jenkins, my jewel, just mark what will follow, Though here we'll tread soft, for our ground's getting hollow : Suppose that A. B. has a shilling a-day, Which in bread and in beer goes a very short way : Now, if bread become cheap, then his profit is plain, Assuming, of course, that his shilling remain ' • For no doubt if his shilling to sixpence should fall, Why his gain on the bread might be nothing at all. But assume, first of all, that these infamous laws, Of a high price of corn are entirely the cause ; Then assume, too, our wages and work still the same, And I'll bet ten to one on our winning the game. But to this, though quite right, I have one smaßobjection ; It don't go far enough in the proper direction. My plan, my dear Jenkins, cuts many milts deeper : Pass an act to make EVERY THING just One:half cheaper. Then you'll see, when the new golden age is begun, That the poor man at once has his two loaves for one ; While, instead of the gig that has long been my care, I shall trundle along in my phaeton and pair, And, Ten-Tumbler TOMKINS my nickname no more, I shall shine as the hero that swallows his score. Here again I assume, amid changes so pleasant, My commission, and credere, still as at present ; -.1. Yet the question comes back, our ideas to jumble, Will our pay be as high when all other things tumble ? In our corn-law discussions, a strange sort of puzzle Has lately been meeting us right in the muzzle. " You may injure the landowner farmer, and reaper, " But your bread will be never a:halfpenny cheaper !" These opponents admit all our rules of free trade, Nay, they summon Ricardo and Smith to their aid. " But at present," they say, " with so slight a demand, " Foreign wheat only grows on the best of the land : " Take away the high duties, and then in a trice " Poorer soils come in play, and that raises the price." I reply—that supposing the prices to rise,.

Which has done near as much as M'Culloch himself To assign us a place on obscurity's shelf. With their eight shilling duty paid year after year, It is plain that our bread would be shockingly dear. Then the change was mixed up with a plan of finance, Where its fraud and its folly were seen at a glance.

Sheffield, and other large towns, in great abundance, to supply the wants of the market gardeners of those places.

SECOND EDITION, Standard Office, Eight o'clock. ---...ciaPg. , -- PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENT The House of Lord met yesterday afternoon shortly before two o'clock, when Parliament was prorogued by commission, until Tuesday, the 11th of November. The Lords Commissioners having taken their seats, the Lord Chancellor read Her Majesty's most gracious speech. The following is a copy : THE QUEEN'S SPEECH " My Lords and Gentlemen, " We are commanded by her Majesty to acquaint you that it appears advisable to Her Majesty to bring to a close the present session of parliament. "" In conformity with the advice of her parliament, and in pursuance of the declared intentions of Her Majesty, Her Majesty has taken the requisite measures for the formation of a new administration, and the arrangements for that pur pose have been completed by Her Majesty. " Gentlemen of the House of Commons, " We have it in command from Her Majesty to thank you for the supplies which you have granted to Her Majesty for those branches of the public service for which complete pro vision had not been made by the late parliament. " The measures which it will be expedient to adopt for the purpose of equalising the public income and the annual expenditure, and other important objects connected with the trade and commerce of the country, will necessarily occupy your attention at an early period after the recess. " Her Majesty has commanded us to repeat the expression of her deep concern at the distress which has prevailed for a considerable period in some of the principal manufacturing districts, and to assure you that you may rely upon the cor dial concurrence of Her Majesty in all such measures as shall appear, after mature consideration, best calculated to prevent the recurrence of that distress, and to promote the great ob ject of all Her Majesty's wishes—the happiness and content ment of all her people." MISCELLANEOUS NEW METAO2OLITAN CHURCHES.—It iS stated that in the course of the present month four new churches. afford ing sittings for 6000 persons, will be opened for divine ser vice in different parts of the metropolis. We are happy to find that a railway is projected in Aber deenshire, which, if carried into effect, will form the com mencement in connexion with existing lines) of a grand northern line, connecting the five largest towns in Scotland, namely Glaigow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee, and Perth, and an immense number of places of less importance. We trust the scheme will be warmly taken up by the capitalists of the district. A very melancholy catastrophe took place on Tuesday last, at long Newton, a village between Darlington and Stocktwa-on-Trees. A three-year-old hull, which had lately become unruly, was, in consequence, placed in a stable, and there chained to the manger, with his horns also fastened thereto with a rope, by the son-iu-law of Mr. W. Stone house„ of the above place, farmer and owner of the bull. The latter person, on going into the stable, and observing the bull tied by the horns, set to work to unloose the rope, not per ceiving that the animal had got rid of the chain, by having torn it from his nostrils. The bull, on the rope being loosened, finding himself at liberty, and being much infu riated, immediately attacked his defenceless owner, and throwing him down, gored him in several places in the most frightful manner. The son-in-law, hearing the cries of his father, directly flew to his assistance, and succeeded in the most miraculous manner in securing the animal, but too late to save his parent's life. as the poor old man, from the inju ries he had received, expired shortly after the unfortunate event took place. Mr. Stonehouse was a respectable farmer, about 70 years of age.—York Herald. CURIOUS CASE.--SEIZURE OF AN ILLICIT STILL, NEAR HAWKSIIEAD.-0O Tuesday last, the exciseman, having re ceived information of a still being at work; proceeded with the Hawkshead police to a lonely cottage at Tilberthwaite, five miles from Hawkshcad, the residence of Lancelot Slee ; and, after a careful examination, they discovered the place of the works in a vault excavated under the stable, the entrance to which was by a trap-door at the head of the stall, under the horse's fore feet. The stall was kept well filled with straw ; and, if Lanty had occasion to go in or come out, he had nothing to do but to call the horse by name, and repeat the necessary word, and the docile animal would instantly stand off, or rise up, for the free ingress or egress of his mas ter. The flue of the boiler was ingeniously carried under ground into the chimney of the cottage. The exciseman was much surprised to find such a room under the stable, and every thing so complete for carrying on business.- -Kendal Mercury. DISASTROUS OCCURRENCE—Loss OF LIFE.—The trow Sisters, employed in carrying timber from Bristol to Bridge water for the Exeter Railway, and belonging to Mr. Paul Legge, of this city, was foundered in a squall, and the wife of the captain, (Joshua Goulding,) two children, and a pas senger, were drowned. The captain, addressing the owner, from Bristol, on Thursday, says—" We had a very bad mis fortune. We lost the trow, my wife and two children, and one man a passenger. We came out with a fair wind, but when we came to. the Holmes a squall came off the land and t'arew her down in an instant. My wife was standing in the hatchway, and 1 told her the trow was going down, but she did not come up. I thought she went to get the two chil dren out of the bed, and before she could get back the hatch way was under water, and she could not get out. There were nine on board, and five were saved. We were all in the water. Three of us clung to the boat's side for five mi nutes till we could get on board, and then we were driven across the channel to Newport River, where a tremendous sea was running. We did not know how soon a wave might swallow us up. Our sufferings were very great." The trow at the time of the disaster was on her fifth voyage. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF DEPRAVITY.—A letter from Naples gives the following account of au extraordinary case lately brought before the criminal tribunals of Sorrento and Otranto. In the former of these towns lived a family, con sisting of a man named Hieronimo Pascolo, his son, Gas perino, aged 31, and Nunziata, the wife of the latter, a wo man of 19, of such rare beauty that several painters of Rome had visited Sorrento, for the purpose of painting her portrait, and introducing it into altar pieces for the churches. These three persons were living in great harmony until a friend of the husband insinuated that Nunziata was faithless. Gasperino, resolved upon ascertaining the truth or falsehood of this charge, the denunciator having been un able or unwilling to point out the party for whom the wife had sacrificed her honour, pretended that he was going on a journey for several days, and secreting himself when his wife imagined that he was absent, entered her bed-chamber at night. Here he saw Nunziata in a sleep, which appeared to him to be that of innocence, and he was about to retire, all doubt and jealousy removed, when she suddenly awoke and left her bed. The husband placed himself in such a situation as not to be seen by his wife, and watched her move ments. She left the room, followed by Gasperino, grasping his dagger, and entered the bed-room of her father-in-law. Gasperino, convinced by what he had witnessed, that his own father was the criminal who had poisoned his domestic peace, rushed upon the guilty pair and stabbed them both. The father died immediately, and Nunziata gave no sign of life. Gasperino then went and delivered himself up to the officers of justice, avowing what he bad done. He was tried by the criminal tribunal of Sorrento, and condemned to death on the ground that be had acted with premeditation, although the wife, who had recovered from her wounds, admitted her criminality, and declared that she had merely married the son in order that she might have more frequent opportunities of intercourse with the father, with whom she was in love. On an appeal to the Supreme Court of Naples, the sentence of the Criminal Tribunal of Sorrento was confirmed, but the law officers of the crown took some legal objections, and de manded that both decisions might be reversed, and a new trial granted. This was done, and Gasperino being brought be fore the tribunal of Otranto, was acquitted. COMMITTAL OF THREE NOTORIOUS BURGLARS.—OR Monday last, after a previous remand, Robert James, and John Hoole were brought up before John Lister, Esq., on several charges of felony. The charges against the prisoners were numerous, and afforded a proof that their depredations have been exceedingly extensive. The principal cases entered into were the following :—Mr. William Thornly, of Close Farm, Pleasington, deposed to two ducks and two drakes having been stolen from his premises, which were found in the possession of Robert and James Hoole. Win. Jackson, of Houghton Lane, Walton-le-Dale, swore that two saws, which had been stolen from him, were found in the possession of John Hoole. Wm. Haworth deposed to having lost one gimblet and one whetstone, which were also found in the possession of John Hoole. James Singleton deposed to having lost one brace-bit, one axe-shaft, one saw, and one square, which were found in the possession of Robert Hoole. Roger Hargreaves, of Houghton, deposed to having lost one sack and a screw key, which were found in the possession of Robert Hoole. Richard Pye, of Further Gate, Blackburn, deposed to having lost a brace, which was also found in the possession of Robert Hoole. Mrs. Bennett, of Walton-le- Dale, innkeeper, deposed to having lost, among other articles, one decanter, which was found in the possession of James and Robert Hoole. The last-mentioned witness had her house, the Oak Inn, in Houghton Lane, broken into between one and two o'clock on Monday morning, in April last. The thieves had got in by pulling down a window which had no fastening. They had tried to get through the cellar, where there had been' formerly a trap door, but which had been built'up at the out side, the door still remaining in the inside and fastened. A crowbar was found by the window. The thieves had only succeeded in obtaining possession of two decanters, one nearly filled with brandy, and the other half filled with rum. The prisoners were apprehended by police constable Thomas Carr, as we stated last week. He was bringing a prisoner from Hou g hton to Blackburn , about seven o clock in the evening of the 27th ult., when he came up to James Hoole, who had a bundle under his arm. Know ing that he was a bad character, he insisted upon examining the bundle, when he discovered the stolen ducks. He then pursued Robert Hoole, who was in company with James, and this led to the further discovery of the stolen articles above enumerated. All the prisoners were fully committed. THE PEOPLE OF DIEPPE.—There is not a single family in the town that admits visitors, or throws open its drawing room. Each lives in his house as though the deserts of Africa commenced at his door. Here are no literary associations, no clubs, no frequented coffee-houses, no reading-rooms, no. thing, in short, that gives sociability to society, and that ac customs men to toleration. In other places too I have found parties ; but these met occasionally, and conversed together, and treated each other with civility at least, if not cordiality : they were foes who shook hands at the advanced posts, and chatted together familiarly till the trumpet summoned them to the fight. Not so in Dieppe. The people of that town are very honest, clever, industrious, nay, even temperate and moral people ; but in a social point of view, they are real bad gers, who live in winter upon their fat, without ever quitting their holes.—Excursions in Normandy. THE Lorus BIRD. — The white tents thrown out in strong relief on the dark foliage of the forest, were pitched on a piece of open green sward, gently sloping towards a small but clear and deep sheet of water, in whose placid bosom was reflected the tranquil scene around, but broken here and there by a partial carpeting of the broad-lea fed lotus, along whose wavy surface ski mm ed with fairy flight the beautiful bird which bears its nam e . So graceful is the flower of this plant, that the Hindoos make it (rive birth to Camden, the god of love. But let us return to the bird : in shape it is a pheasant in miniature, but, if possible, with much more splendid plumage, which changes to every tint of the rain bow as it lightly runs along the surface of the broad lotus leaf, and the bright feathers catch the reflected rays of the sun. It is enabled to support its light weight on this frail tenure by the rapidity of its motions and peculiar shape of the feet, which, although not webbed, have toes of such un usual length, that they cover a very large space ; and, like a skilful skater, it glides with ease over a surface apparently inadequate to its support.—Scenes and Sports in Foreign Lands, by Major Napier.

There was an unusually small show of all kinds of stock to-day, smaller than perhaps were ever seen at this season of the year. 'The quality was fair, but not above an average. Best Beef found ready buyers at 6d to djd, prime Mutton, 61d to 74d, Ewes and middling 6d to bid per lb., Lambs worth 7d full. Little of anything left unsold. HULL CORN MARKET, OcT. 5. At to-day's market we had a very small show of new Wheat from the farmers, the bulk of which was of inferior quality and much out of condition ; the fine dry samples sold at an advance of is to 2s per qr., whilst the inferior qualities obtained rather over last week's rates. There was an extensive sale for foreign Wheat, at the above advance, and in some instances rather more. Foreign Barley met with a dull sale, at full prices. Beans without any alterrtion in prices or value. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 5. A steady going market to-day, ai►d, for Tuesday, a good demand. The business will not fall much short of 4000 bales, at the full prices of yesterday. Exporters are also operating ; and, if possible, the departure of the packet has given additional firmness to the tone and feeling of the mar ket. COTTON MARKET, OCTOBER. 6 The demand for Cotton to-day has been only very moderate, and the market has appeared quiet and inanimate ; the sales are esti mated at 3500 bales of all descriptions, at yesterday's prices— certainly not lower—perhaps rather in favour of the seller, which with a quiet feeling, is rather unusual. COTTON MARKET, OCTOBNIL 7 - - Our Cotton market to-day has been very heavy and flat; the demand has not been for more than 2 to 2500 bales, principally in American descriptions, 200 of which are on speculation account. T'lle Indian overland mail may stimulate the demand a little, other wiSe we shall remain in the present terpid state until the trade really - mends. It is evident that a temporary impulse in prices cannot be maintained until this is the case, and if over production can be stopped by the suspension of machinery, the supply must shortly he equivalest to the demand, and a healthier state of things be thus brought about. hONDOb GAZErrgorTUMIDAV, OCT, f.`; PARTNERSHIPS DISSOLVED.

An account of the quantities and prices of British Corn sold in this market, for the week ended Saturday last. Wheat, qrs. 112, total amount .t':►is as 4d, price per quarter £2 19s 10d. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 7. The want of demand, noticeable in the London market, for But ter, has had very little effect here. Fine qualities, which are scarce, command fully as much money, and go off with much steadiness. Pickled Butter has been sought after during the last few days, principally, however, we rather think by speculators : the currency of the article is unaltered. Beef and Pork are in : request, particu larly the finer descriptions. Bacon and Hams steady. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCTOBER 5. The arrivals into this port from Ireland form a moderate quantity of Wheat, Oats, and Oatmeal, whilst of other arti• cies thence, or of any Coastwise, the receipts since last Tuesday are trivial; from the Continental ports of Europe and from Canada, however, we have to note a further good supply of Wheat and Flour, as stated below. The following are the quantities of Grain, Flour, and Oat meal computed to remain in Liverpool on the 30th Sept., 1841: . _ . in Bond.—Wheat, quarters ; Barley, 5,194 quarters ; Oats, 13,773 quarters ; Rye, 1,897 quarters ; Beans, 50,208 quarters ; Pease, quarters ; Flour, quarters. Free.—Wheat, 160,000 quarters ; Barley, 1,000 quarters ; Oats, 15,000 quarters ' • Rye, quarters ; Beans, 4,500 quarters ; Pease, 12,000 quarters ; Flour, 1.000 sacks and 140,000 barrels ' • Oatmeal, 20,000 loads. After several days of fine weather, we had a return of rain ast evening, and to-day appears very unsettled : if general the remnant of the harvest in the remote situations of the north will be further delayed ; which, combined with the prospect of much higher duties on Wheat and Flour, and the eager demand existing in all the importing markets in the kingdom for the released stocks of foreign, serve to impart increasing firmness to the trade here. At this day's market therefore, all descriptions of foreign Wheat were held steadily at 2d per 70 lbs over the rates of Tuesday last ; but the millers having bought freely of late, the advance was reluctantly paid, and the transactions, al though moderately fair, were by no means considerable.— Of Irish new Wheats several parcels appeared to-day, the quality of which was extremely varied, and ranged from Ss to 9s per 70 lbs. Flour continuing in improved request, was is per sack and Is per barrel dearer. Barley, remaining scarce, fully maintained its previous va lue.—Malt also commanded former prices.—Beans and Peas, upon a limited demand, were the turn cheaper. Although in Oats we had very little business passing to day, prices remained unvaried. Oatmeal being rather more saleable, good qualities of old were Gd per 240 lbs higher, and new supported our list quo tations. Days TIDE TABLE Height Sundays, Ilotydays, ,y c •R. m. I 0. M. , Y. I.
