*Tharp, THERE 'S A CHARM IN THE WOODS. BY JAMES STONEIIMISE. (For the Liverpool Standard.) There 's a charm in the woods at the beautiful dawn, When the bright sun is warming the earth with his ray; When dew-drops, like diamonds, ensparkle the lawn, And the lark high in air seems to welcome the day. Then sweet 't is to rove where the rivulet streams, Where for ever it singeth its sweet little song ; • Oh ! the breath of the morning most exquisite seems, Perfumed by the flowers in floating along. There 's a charm in the woods when the daylight declines, When the hum of the village no longer is beard, When the glowworm's pale lamp on mossy bank shines, And stilled are the voices of bee and of bird : Then wander with me ; for, though morning may waken The heart's gayest feelings of gladness and joy, At the twilight alone earth's cares are forsaken, And we think that such moments possess no alloy. SPRING. (For the Liverpool Standard. The loveliest and the sweetest gifts Revolving seasons bring From nature's rich and varied stores, Are those bestowed in spring. The flow'rs we loved and prized the most, Though hid awhile from view, By winter's snow or autumn's frost, Spring's genial days renew. The warblings of our sweetest birds, Most welcome to the ear, Proclaim, more eloquent than words, The spring-time of the year. The carols of the tuneful lark, Whilst soaring to the sky, On fluttering pinions, mark Its gratitude on high. The verdure on the grassy plain, The leaflet in the dell, All, all, in one harmonious strain, A sweet spring-tale now tell. All nature, then, above, below, On earth, through air and sea, Teeming with life, in myriads, show Their joy, from winter free. Are we, (the noblest works of Him Who by His mighty will Called into being this varied life, His fiat to fulfil) — Are we not grateful for the change We witness now around? Beats not the heart with quickened pulse When blessings thus abound? Yes! young and old, alike with joy The cheering influence feel, Of spring's reanimating powers, Which o'er the senses steal. Then youth, with bright and buoyant hopes, Bounds lightly o'er the ground, And as each day fresh beauties rise, New joys to him are found. And manhood, too, though sobered now By life's realities, Still feels, in spring's reviving days, New joys, new hopes arise. Each flower, each tree, and shrub, Then bursting into life, Some day or hour long past recal, With joy or pain still rife. And feeble age, though pale and wan, And hast'ning to decay, The current of his life's brief span, Fast ebbing now away— Yet views with mingled joy and pain The buds and flow'rs of spring, As friends of old, restor'd again, And old affections bring ; And fervent prayers too will arise, That soon to him be given Eternal spring beyond the skies— Eternal life in heaven. S. K. (For the Liverpool Standard.) Away ! thou shalt haunt me no more. Thine image shall fade from my breast ; And the love that I cherished before Shall fly like a bird from its nest ! My heart was as true to thine own As the needle that turns to the pole, But the charm of those moments is flown, And their memory chased from my soul. Thy vows were as prints that are traced On the sand by some blue river's side, That no sooner are seen than effaced By the billow that heralds its tide. 0, Love ! thou sweet jest of an hour, Why leave me to sorrow a prey ? A fair but a delicate flower, Which blooms and then withers away. Our hearts are the blossoms that die, The kisses of woman the dew, The ruin they leave is a sigh, And the blisses they promise untrue. A tale of the East I have heard, That the pilgrim who wanders along, Oft encounters a beautiful bird, With the music of hope in its song ; So this world was my valley of gloom, And a bird but too sweetly could sing, For it rifled my heart of its bloom, Then the bird of the desert took wing! L. 11. Liverpool. THE. CHURCH AND THE TRACTARIANS. It would be well for those who think lightly of the pro ceedings of the disciples of Dr. Pusey, to consider with some little attention the light in which their operations are viewed by intelligent Roman Catholics at home and abroad. Their papers congratulate the Romish church on the probable large accession to the number of its members, and speak with the greatest respect of the persons and the writings of the tracta rian party. An article in a French paper, L' Univers, speaks boldly on this subject : " Since the day," the writer remarks, " when the avowals of the Oxford professors became sufficiently explicit to raise in the Catholic world hopes that a future, not far removed from us, was about, perhaps, to realise itself, but more especially since the time when the instruction of these learned theologians determined many eminent men to study and embrace the Catholic faith, the minds that follow with interest the work of regeneration which is going on in the Anglican Church are occupied by an anxiety to know the numerical force of the Puseyites, and what the attitude is which the Anglican bishops assume towards the Re formers. The answer to these two questions is, it will be understood, the solution of the religious question which is being agitated in England. We therefore have applied ourselves to a collection of the facts necessary to throw light upon them ; and, if we do not deceive ourselves, these facts show that the Puseyites are at this day in a'majority at Ox ford, that they are masters of the situation, and that they have no longer anything to fear from the ill-will of their an tagonists. The Anglican episcopacy, on the other hand, which in the beginning had declared against the Puseyites, now, at the sight of the prodigious success obtained by their instruction is reconsidering the matter; it fears to be shat tered in its inertness if it opposes a dam to such a torrent ; it takes their part and ranges itself under the standard raised by Drs. Pusey and Newman." It is not true, as all who are in in any degree acquainted with church matters are very well aware, that the bishops as a body have in their charges countenanced the tractarian heresies. On the contrary, they have boldly and honestly condemned them. Such exaggerated statements as those we have extracted from the French paper are easily accounted for. A London morning paper has recently been blazoning forth the charges of two or three bishops, who have spoken highly of the writers of the Oxford school, and because they have paid this tribute to their characters, without at all pledging themselves to their peculiar doctrines, the Bishops of Exeter, Edinburgh, and Glasgow, are declared to be sup porters of the new school, and as the report travels it gains as might be expected, and the Anglican episcopacy are said to have ranged themselves under the standard raised by Drs. i'aseY and Newman. After alluding to some of the expressions in the Tracts, and in the Bishop of Salisbury's recent serm on at St. Paul's , the writer i n th e Univers thus concludes : " Let us gather up these precious avowals, and these ex planations more precious still. Let us determine with joy the immense progress made during the last ten months in the Anglican church, on the path which, to all appearance, cannot but lead to her re-union with Rome. Already she proclaimsr uie ady she fatnili • herself with the idea of a reconcilia tion.!irises Her isolation overwhelms her ; she confesses that a culpable schis m we desire i n the shak es her foundations. What more could The events of short space of time that marks her return ? eloquence to leh w e are w itn esses s p ea k with sufficient land ; the,interest the Catholic world in favour of Eng prodigies." prayer s (4 the church will soon effect new SERIOUS AFFRAY. (From the Cork co",„eitution of Thursday.) - An occurrence of a serious l at , ur e took place on Tuesday evening about five o'clock, at li the life of a recruit, saw mills, Patrick's-quay, b y wi r e • Quarry and Wilson's named Towell, belonging to the Ist melancholy case, as we Royalsun derstand, was endangered. The circumstances which led to the are as follows :—During the latter part of the day a report became general that the four sawy er or throwing Friday, and sentenced to be transported forslifeeend guilty on vitriol on Mr. Wilson, one of the proprietors of the ' saw mills, were to be shipped on board the St. George other steamer, so lyi ng at Penrose's-quay, for Dublin. Curiosity, or motive, attracted hundreds of spectators to theme ,to witness the. departure of these men ; but the report out to be untrue, and the steamer left the moorings withoutd the convicts. The parties who . were thus waiting returne towards the town, along Patrick's -quay, passing, o f muse the saw mills. the gateway of which was at the time open, the workmen being engaged in drawing water from the river to supply the steam-boiler of the mills. It appears that Mr. Wilson's men, from the crowds that were collected, were unable to get in the water, and the engineer then came from the mills to remonstrate with them, but without success. An attack on the mills being apprehended, word was sent to Mr. Wilson of what was going on. Mr. Wilson instantly came from the office with the intention of having the gate on Patrick' s . qua y c l ose d. Proceeding to the gateway he had to pass through a long, dark, narrow passage, connecting the mills with the qnay. While going through this p assage he stumbled over Towell and others. Towell recovere d himself arengrasped Mr. Wilson by the breast. Mr. Wils on, in return, grasped Towell, and a tussle ensued, during which the n'former, impelled by, it is believed, the danger in which 14e felt himself, from threats recently used towards him, drew a dagger and stabb e d Towel in the side. Towell was imme diately taken to Mr. Brady, apothecary, Bridge street and thence to the Royal H os n p ne ifal l , ) w here he now lies. Bridge-street, wound ' is stated to be a severe instance Dr. Howe, who attended the unfortunate sufferer at the ' ince of. Mr. Wilson, reports him yesterday to be considerably better—better, too, than he could have expected under the n rcumstances. A large con course of persons, on the ocenrre l ,000, and ee being known, assembled to the amount oiabout 2 from the excitement appa rent amongst them, great fears were entertained for the re sult. However, sub-inspectors Gun% l. W.Leod, head-con stable Ward, and a large party of proceeded to the mills, and by their presence the peace P was preserved. The police remained until a late hour, when, people having separated, they left a party in charge of the m e was progressing hour yesterday evening we heard that Towell iAt a late favoWablY• He is stated to be a native of Limerick, and only a few days in this city. UNITED STATES. By the packet►ship Roscius, which arrived here at an early hour this morning from America, we have received New York papers to the 25th ult. inclusive, being four days later than those brought by the transient ship Hollmgeur. The Herald of the 25th states that they have direct intel ligence from Washington that the long-disputed boundary question is very nearly, if not finally, settled. The result of the negotiations is stated to be this :—The United States commence the line at the head lake of the St. Croix river, run it directly north to Mars Hill, thence due north, tilt it strikes the St. Johns river, at a point a few miles above the Great Falls. We then run the line along the course of the St. Johns River, until it meets the St. Francis River. The line then runs up the St. Francis until it reaches the southern outlet of the upper lake on the St. Francis. This is the most northerly point of the line. The line then runs south west and by south for 100 miles in a straight line, at a distance"of 25 feet from the base of the mountains skirting the St. Lawrence river, until it strikes the N. W. branch of the river St. Johns. It then runs due south for about 30 miles, until it strikes the S. W. branch of the St. John's river ; after this it follows the course of that branch up to its source in the mountains, close to the source of the Penobscot and Metgarmette rivers, and terminates at the precise point where the south westerly termination of the three lines previously drawn by the United States, Great Britain, and the King of the Netherlands, were made to ter minate. The line, in short, varies scarcely a mile either way from that laid down on our map as the line defined by the King of the Netherlands. The tract which we have given on the north-eastern border of Maine is valuable to Great Britain, as strengthening her military position, but is not of much importance to us. The extent of the territory can be easily seen from the map. The General Government are to reimburse Maine for her expenses in defending the disputed territory, and Massachu setts is to receive 150,000 dollars from the United States, for her portion of the land which is to be given up. We get Rouse's Point on Lake Champlain, and the navi gation of St. John's River above the Falls; but, as we have no access to them below the Falls, the free navigation of that river, under these circumstances, is worth but little. Lord Ashburton, Mr. Webster and Massachusetts Com missioners have all agreed to this arrangement. The Maine Csmmissioners have only partially yielded ; they wish to avoid responsibility, and are willing to let this treaty be decided by the United States Senate. The locofocos are opposed to this treaty, whether from party or patriotic motives we shall see in a few days. The steam-ship Acadia arrived at Boston at midnight on the 21st instant, having experienced, during the first ten days, very Tough weather, with strong head winds. The British Queen was hourly expected at New York. It will probably amuse our readers to hear what sort of speculations our Yankee friends some time indulge in. The Herald, in announcing the expected arrival of the British Queen, states that that vessel may bring intelligence of Sir Robert Peel's death, for he was very sick on the 6th instant, and perchance, also, the death of the King of France. The Money Market was in the same condition. The re mainder of the news is meagre in the extreme. We cannot find another circumstance worth transcribing. The royal mail steam-ship Acadia, Captain Ryrie, arrived here on Saturday morning, baying sailed from Boston on the afternoon of the Ist, and Halifax on the 3d. She has made the whole passage in 11 days and 10 hours, bringing between 30 and 40 passengers. The reports of the adjustment of the boundary question are confirmed by the papers brought by this vessel; and the amicable settlement of the long-agitated dispute is viewed in the States with great satisfaction. The following money article, from the New York Ameri can of the Ist instant, presents an admirable summary of the intelligence necessary to lay before our readers : The occurrence of chief interest since our last, of the 15th instant, is the conclusion of the negotiation between the Se cretary of State and the British Special Minister, Lord Ash burton. As yet no publicity has been given to the terms of the convention, for there may be more than one agreed upon by the negotiators, nor can there be until the Senate shall have passed their judgment upon the results of their labours and ratified or rejected them. The fact, however, that, as respects the North-eastern boundary question, the commis sioners from Massachusetts and those from Maine, who were fully empowered by their respective states to bind them to any terms which the said commissioners should approve, are known to have assented to the arrangement agreed upon by the negotiators, leaves little room for doubt that the Senate will confirm what the states mainly interested have thus con sented to. The article, moreover, from the National Intelligencer of yesterday we have reason to know states accurately the na ture of the settlement, which must be looked upon by both sides as satisfactory. It must, however, in fairness, be added, that large num bers among us will see with regret any arrangement that shall render war impossible. The private and wide-spread distress in the country, the want of markets for overflowing agricul tural products, and the want of employment, or even of the hope of employment, on the part of tens of thousands of young and ardent men to whom any change would bring ex citement, if not relief, present very inflammable materials upon which the arts of designing demagogues may operate with fatal suecess, against the final ratification of the treaty. By our constitution, the whole treaty-making power is con fined to the President and the Senate. If, therefore, these two branches of the Federal Government shall speedily dis pose of the subject, and ratify what has been done, there will be little scope or opportunity for bringing out-door influence to bear upon the decision; but if the matter is suffered to hang, and meantime, erroneous and exaggerated statements are circulated, as such will be, of what has been conceded or what obtained in this negotiation, and the popular passions and prejudices are roused, the issue will be more doubtful. Nevertheless, we belive, as we certainly hope, that all will be well, and that, in a few weeks at furthest, we shall be able to exchange congratulations with our English readers, that, between our two countries, henceforth, no diplomatic or political controversies exist. In all other political and financial matters we remain in statu quo. The Tariff Bill, which, after the rejection of the Temporary Revenue Bill by the President, was laboriously perfected by the House of Representatives, is now under de bate iu the Senate. Should it pass that body, its fate at the hands of the Executive is conceded to be uncertain. Meantime; the Custom-house, under an opinion of the Attorney-General, collects revenue at the rate of 20 per cent ad valorem upon all imports, calculated at the place of land ing, and payable in cash. The duties, however, are paid under protest. The state of Pennsylvania seems, we regret to be obliged to say, hastening on in a downward path. Not only does her Legislature persist in refusing adequately to tax the property of the state for the maintainence of its plighted faith, but they have followed the bad lead of some younger and less wealthy states, by the enactment of what is commonly called a "stay law," which, in effect, for the time being deprives the creditor of the remedy guaranteed to him by the laws against the property of his debtor. From the principal sec tion of this law it appears, that both real and personal pro perty are protected by it for one year from process of summary execution. The law was approved by the Governor on the 16th instant. It is with feelings of deep humiliation we record this evidence of dishonesty against the great state; but there is no other mode of escaping a share of responsi bility for such acts of any of onr American common-wealths, united as we are by a common bond, than by pnbicly branding them as dishonest, and disclaiming all part or parcel in them. The Legislature of the state adjourned on Tuesday night. Their last act was to pass a law imposing a tax of 1,000,000 dls. upon the assessed property of the state ; but the pro ceeds, estimated at from 500,000 dls. to 1,000,000 dls. annually, are first appropriated to domestic creditors ; and as these demands exceed 2,000,000 dls., nothing can, for some time at least, be derived from this tax for the payment of interest on the public debt. The stocks of the states that pay interest have advanced, while those of our local incorporated institutions have de clined. _ _ The banks in this city have little employment for their capital. . _ A 7 per cent. loan, issued by the city of New York, redeemable in 1825, to pay the temporary debt incurred by the Water Commissioners, has been taken at par, and is now held at 1 per cent., at which small sales are daily made. Our domestic exchanges are without much change, except on Alabama, which daily gets worse, without any prospect of improvement. Our advices from there confirm us in the opinion formerly expressed, that the majority of the next legislature will be in favour of winding up the banks, and levying aisufficient tax to pay the interest which may hereafter become due, instead of depending on the profits of the banks. If this should be done, there will be no ultimate loss to the billholders, as the state is liable for. the whole circulation ; and the two joint-stock banks in the state are abundantly able to meet all demands. Our harvests, though deficient in some parts of the coun try, on the whole are superabundant, and the surplus will, probably, be larger than ever yet known. Every thing almost is at a stand among the mercantile community on the seaboard. The contraction of the cur rency and the depreciation of bank paper present remittan ces, and render it almost impossible to collect, even ftom those who possess property far exceeding the amount of their liabilities, without compelling sacrifices that debtors appear determined not to submit to. WEST INDIES. The Teviot Steamer, Lieut. Croker, arrived at Falmouth on Friday evening. She left Vera Cruz on July. 1, and ar rived at Havana on the 14th. On the day following a seri ous casualty, by fire, occurred, which at one time threatened the entire destruction of the Tiviot. A complete statement of the event, as narrated by a gentleman who happened to be on board, will be found elsewhere. After some temporary repairs had been effected she left on the 19th; Nassau on the 21st, Bermuda on the 26th, Fayal, August 5. She was ob liged to put out her fires and go under canvas for two days for want of fuel. The Treut was left at Havana, and would leave for England in about five days for Falmouth with the mails. The Forth was expected on July 20 from the Gulf of Mexico. Her Majesty's ship Curacao, 21, Capt. Jenkin Jones, left San Blas on June 3 for Valparaiso, Rio de Janeiro, and England, having on board 18,000,000 dollars on merchants' accounts. She had come up from the South Sea Islands to undertake this mission. The Racer remained at Vera Cruz. The Racehorse, Capt. Peel. sailed for Halifax, from Havana, about the 27th of June. ' The Pilot was expected at Havana on August Ist. The Texan blockade of the Mexican coast was reported to be given up from its inefficiency. The American prisoners captured by the Mexicans on this expe dition had been marched down to Vera Cruz for shipment, when they would be conveyed to New Orleans. The state of Guetamala had settled the amount of the de mands enforced by Admiral Adams. The central American states continued in a political convulsion, which affected trade, as a matter of course, and had reduced it to its lowes t Possible ebb.

On Monday, an unfortunate accident occurred at the baths of Enghien to two workmen who were employed at a newly discovered sulphurous spring. They were' found dying on the spot where they were at work. One of them, whose skull was shattered, was found at the bottom of the spring, which was nine feet deep ; the other was found above, and scarcely wet, It was at first supposed that the fumes of the sulphur must have overcome them, but the position of the bodies renders this almost impossible. *uvula! Vat''intent. HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY. The prorogation of parliament having been fixed for to-day, the doors of the house were opened at twelve o'clock for the purpose of admitting the peeresses and ladies who had ob tamped tickets to witness the ceremony. As is usual on these occasions, the seats allotted to the fair strangers were occupied shortly after the opening of the doors, and the body of the house, the galleries on either side the throne, and the strangers' gallery, exhibited a dazzling display of rank and beauty. The attendance, however, owing, we believe, to the number of tickets issued being limited, was not so numerous as we have witnessed on former occasions, nor were the dresses or brilliants worn of so gorgeous a character. The strangers' gallery was by no means crowded, and therefore less warranted a most serious inconvenience to which the gentlemen of the press were subjected. The greater num ber of the places set apart for their accommodation, and called the reporters' gallery, were a few minutes after twelve occupied by ladies, the friends, we should suppose, of the messengers ; the consequence was, that those gentlemen who had necessarily been delayed by the stream of car riages in rank from being in their places punctually at twelve were unable to obtain seats, unless two occupied the place of one, and were so crowded as to render it almost impossible to take notes. We are anxious to notice this cir cumstance, in order if possible to prevent a recurrence of it. The reporters' gallery is devoted to the reporters ; the tickets they obtain to that part of the house are exclusively for them, and the messengers are hound to keep the seats unoccupied in order that they may be applied in the manner intended. In this instance the greatest inconvenience was felt by the intrusion of which we complain, and we trust Lord Shaftesbury, if this should meet his lordship's eye, will not allow a similar inconvenience on any future occasion. The Duke of Wellington entered the house at half-past 12 and was one of the first peers who arrived. His grace appealed in good spirits, although somewhat feeble. Peers and peeresses arrived in quick succession afterwards until nearly the time when her Majesty was expected. In the gallery, on the right hand of the throne, Dwarkarnauth Tajore and another Hindoo of rank were accommodated with seats. The foreign ambassadors and ministers occupied the row behind the bishops and ministerial benches. His Serence Highness the reigning Duke of Saxe Coburg, Prince Ernest, and the princess took their seats in the chairs of state placed for their highnesses on the floor of the house on the right of the throne. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge occupied his place as a peer. About 23 peers were present to receive her Majesty, among whom were the Dukes Norfolk and Buccleuch , Earls Ripon, Eldon, Cardigan, Shaftesbury, Aberdeen, Vis count Melbourne, Lords Wharncliffe, Langdale, Redesdale, Campbell, Forester, &c., the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London. Mr. Baron Rolfe was the only judge present, the other judges being on circuit. When her Majesty entered the house all present rose, and remained standing until her Majesty desired theirlordships to be eeated. His Royal Highness Prince Albert, who was dressed in a field marshal's uniform, occupied the chair of state on the left of her Majesty. Her Majesty wore the royal robes over a satin dress, brocaded with gold lace, and crown of brilliants. The usual time elapsed before the entry of the members of the House of Commons, but at length silence of the scene was broken by the unruly rush of the representatives of the lower house of Parliament. The SPEAKER addressed her Majesty, giving a resume of the business of the session. Her Majesty then read the following speech : "My Lords and Gentlemen, " The state of public business enables me to release you from further attendance in parliament. " I cannot take leave of you without expressing my grate ful sense of the assiduity and zeal with which you have ap plied yourselves to the discharge of your public duties during the whole course of a long and most laborious session. " You have had under your consideration measures of the greatest importance connected with the financial and com mercial interests of the country, calculated to maintain the public credit, to improve the national resources, and, by ex tending trade, and stimulating the demand for labour, to promote the general and permanent welfare of all classes of my subjects. " Although measures of this description have necessarily occupied much of your attention, you have at the same time effected great improvements in several branches of juris prudence, and in laws connected with the administration of domestic affairs. " I return you my especial acknowledgements for the re newed proof which you afforded me of your loyalty and affectionate attachment by your ready and unanimous con currence in the act for the increased security and protection of my person. " I continue to receive from all foreign powers assurances of their friendly disposition towards this country. " Although I have deeply to lament the reverses which have befallen a division of the army to the westward of the Indus, yet I have the satisfaction of reflecting that the gal lant defence.of the city of Jellalabad, crowned by a decisive victory in the field, has eminently proved the courage and discipline of the European and native troops, and the skill and fortitude of their distinguished commander. " Gentlemen of the House of Commons, " The liberality with which you have granted the supplies to meet the exigencies of the public service demands my warm acknowledgments. " My Lords and Gentlemen,! " You will concur with me in the expression of humble gratitude to Almighty God for the favourable season which His bounty has vouchsafed to us, and for the prospects of a harvest more abundant than those of recent years. " There are, I trust, indications of gradual recovery from that depression which has affected many branches of manu facturing industry, and has exposed large classes of my people to privations and sufferings, which have caused rue the deepest concern. " You will, 1 am confident, be actuated on your return to your several counties by the same enlightened zeal for the public interest which you have manifested during the dis charge of your parliamentary duties, and will do your utmost to encourage by your example and active exertions that spirit of order and submission to the law which is essential to the public happiness, and without which there can be no enjoy ment of the fruits of peaceful industry, and no advance in the career of social improvement." When her Majesty's- most gracious speech had been read, The LORD CHANCELLOR declared that it was her Ma jesty's gracious will and pleasure that Parliament should be prorogued to Thursday the Gth of October next. HOUSE OF COMMONS-FRmAy; A new writ was ordered for the southern division of Hampshire, in the room of J. W. Fleming, Esq., who has accepted the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. Mr. EwARr gave notice that, in the next sessions of Par liament, he would call attention to the propriety of assimi lating the law as regards the punishment of death in Scot land to that of England and Ireland ; he would also call attention to the propriety of substituting imprisonment for transportation. In reply to a question from Mr. T. DUNCO MBE , re l a ti ve to what had taken place at a chartist meeting in Bridport, Sir J. GRAHAM said that he had had a correspondence on the subject with the mayor of Bridport, and was satisfied that no violent language had been used on the occasion. Mr. DUNCOMBE wished to know on what groun d the right hon. baronet had made his inquiry, and from whence he derived the information which led him to write to the mayor of Bridport? He wished to know if that information was derived from spies, and should, therefore, move for copies of the correspondence. Sir J. GRAHAM was decidedly opposed t o th e mo ti on , though he must at the same time repudiate th e no ti on th a t his information had been received from a spy. Neither himself, nor any of the men . Thers of the Gover nmen t, wou ld resort to the employment of spies, who usually d ece i ve th ose who employed them. His information was derived from a party wholly disinterested, and he was compelled to believe that that party was mistaken when he received a communi cation from the town clerk of Bridport. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply to a question from Mr. C. Buller, said that one of the first mea sures next session would be to meet the claims of the parties suffering by the exchequer bills fraud. Mr. COBDEN tried to get up another discussion on the corn laws by asking ministers for a pledge to repeal them next session. Sir R, PEEL not only defended the recent corn law, but insisted that it had already conferred great benefit on the country. The 'further discussion of the question was interrupted by Sir A. Clifford, who summoned the house to the House of Peers to hear the speech of her Majesty from the throne on the prorogation of Parliament. REPORT OF TIIE EXCIIEQUER-BILL FRAUD. (From the Globe.) • The report of the commissioners appointed to investigate the late Exchequer-bill fraud is now fairly before the public, and is considered a very able and a very impartial document, which must satisfy all reasonable men. After perusing it carefully, the Chancellor of the Exchequer stated in the House of Commons yesterday, that "he had no scruples in saying that several of the holders of these Exchequer-bills had undoubted claims upon the government, and it would be the duty of the responsible advisers of the crown to submit to parliament a measure with reference to those who held those forged Exchequer-bills, and who bad a claim upon the government for indemnity. In doing so, however, it would be necessary to exercise some discrimination, as there was a very material difference between the cases." To enable us to appreciate this remark, we must refer to the commissioners' report, where we find the claimants arranged in four classes, of which those in class No. 1, we presume. are undoubtedly entitled to indemnity, and those in class No. 4 are rejected altogether. Therefore the claims requiring the " exercise of some discrimination" must be those in class No. 2, and in class No. 3.

On that occasion Elizabeth came down and addressed the house, telling the Commons " She utterly disallows and condemns those for their audacious, arrogant and presumptuous conduct,. who, by matters that i t: tt l t a e n r rist Commons,h occasion a h t a d t , superfluous speeches, spend much time in meddling with . matt e rs, n either pertaining to them, nor within the capacity of their understanding."

Mr. Moffatt has since returned to town, it is supposed with the view of pro curing a colleague from the members of the Reform Club.

The report hav ing been read the Secretary read over the memorandum of agreement, between the Lancaster Canal Company and themselves which was adopted, and a resolution was put and carried unanimously, that Parliament be applied to for an Act, authorising the two companies to carry the agreement into effect. AFFLUENCE IN RAGS.—On Thursday evening, a mo s t wretched-lookine object made his appearance at the police barrack at Pallaatenry, soliciting charity. Something in his demeanour attracted the eagle eye of head Constable O'Meal ly, who desired him to walk in. After a few questions, the police began to search his person, and found £23.

No advance has taken place in the Wheat duty this week, and that upon other articles continues also unchanged, ex cept on Foreign Rye, reduced to 8s Gd per quarter, and on Colonial Barley and Rye to is Gd and to Gd per quarter re spectively. The fresh arrivals of Foreign Wheat, though hitherto less abundant than those of last week, arc still liberal ; and of Flour from Canada we have again to note a fair supply, with a few further parcels of Pease and Oatmeal thence. and 2112 quarters Egyptian Beans; but scarcely any produce from the United States, and very little either coastwise or from Ireland. During the intermediate period from Tuesday until to day, Foreign Wheat commanded a tolerable degree of atten tion, resulting in sales to a fair extent, on terms nearly equal to those previously obtained ; and although in other articles of the trade little animation was apparent, the general cur rency of our last circular seemed to remain uncaried. The exposure of fine Wheats at our Corn Exchange to day being less plentiful than of late, and having a moderate number of country millers in attendance, with some demand on speculation, transactions in the various qualities of this grain were repeated to a fair amount; the best descriptions of red Balticrather exceeding the rates of Tuesday, the middle class samples of Mediterranean partly recovering the depres sion then stated, and the trade concluding with a somewhat firmer aspect. Flour, although takea off sparingly, was unaltered in value. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, being very unsaleable, still exhibited a tendency to decline. Oats, notwithstanding we have not a single fresh arrival to report, and but few offering from granary, scarcely main tained our last quotations. Oatmeal, on the contrary, moved rather freely into the hands of consumers at the reduced rates previously noted. LONDON GAZETTE.-FRIDAY, AUGUST 12. PARTNERSHIPS DISSOLVED. R. Alexander, T. Carter, L.

We are now in this part reaping the fruits of the late Whig government, and also of Tory incaution. On Saturday, Acrington, Church, and all the adjacent places were besieged by Chartist mobs ; and, having no protection, we were all obliged to comply with their demands—stopping our ma chinery and turning out all our hands. The print works of Messrs. R. and T. Peel, at Church, were crowded, and I feared we should sustain some serious inj ur y ; b u t, happily, they passed away without doing mischief. Our pockets and pantries had to suffer. Yesterday, it was reported a meeting would be held on Bull Hill, the other side of Darwen from here, and this morning a desperate attack on Blackburn is expected to take place. The authorities have been very active in preparations to resist the mob, and I do hope they may be successful. We have had visitors this night to observe if we are pre paring for starting our engine. The premises of Foxhill Bank have attracted the mobs attention, and this morning there is not one factory at work, and it would be folly for us to attempt any resistance at the present moment. Meetings have been held in this neighbourhood on Sundays for many weeks which ought to have been put down. A gentleman, with a requisition from the magistrates, went to Manchester yesterday, but they cannot spare any assistance from that quarter. A mob of from 10 to 15,000 passed along the Acrington road to Blackburn this morning, and they were pouring in from all directions, and Blackburn cannot resist this multitude. Several parties have been seriously injured. WIGAN. MONDAY NinnY, 10 o'CLocK.—The greatest excitement has prevailed in this town since the turn -outs began to make their disturbances in Manchester and the surrounding vici nity. On Friday last the mob was expected by our towns men, and due precautions were taken to prevent a riot. Most of the respectable shopkeepers and tradesmen are sworn in as special constables, and the military (3 compa nies of the 72d Highlanders) kept within barracks, under orders. However, the vast body never made their appear ance in Wigan, though a great number of unemployed weavers and colliers were to be seen loitering about the streets, both during the latter part of Friday and Saturday. On Saturday evening, the Wigan troop of the Lancashire Yeomanry received orders from the commanding officer (Lord Francis Egerton) to be in readiness to march to Pres ton the following morning, at six o'clock. On assembling in the streets previous to marching, they were hooted and loudly cursed by a mob of 600 or 700 persons, who were be fore the Eagle and Child Hotel, opposite which were also the cavalry. On the Sunday evening, written notices were posted on the walls in different parts of the Scholes, calling a meeting of the operatives, to be held this morning, and calling on all miners to aid and assist their brother opera tives against the tyranny of their masters—" the coal lords and cotton lords." The meeting was but scantily attended, not more than 200 or 300 persons being present. A man, named Gerard, read a letter from an individual, named Dixon, (who is a leader of the Manchester mob, and an in habitant of Wigan,) calling on the Wigan operatives to march towards Bolton to join the main body before they entered Wigan. Accordingly, the few who were present set off, soon after six o'clock, towards Hindley, and were joined at Broom-street, in Ince, by about 300 or 400 more. The first act of the mob was to stop the machinery at Rose-bridge Colliery, and compel the workmen to leave work. Fur ther on in their march they came to the cotton mill belonging to William Gidlow, Esq., in Ince, which they stopped. The manager at the mill very imprudently threatened to stab any of the mob who came near the pre mises, and was compelled in consequence to join the mob, and walk in front of them to Hindley, with a man hold of each arm. The coal mines of Mr. Gidlow were also stopped, and the men compelled to cease working. A little beyond Hindley, in Leigh-lane, the Wigan portion are join ed by that from Westhoughton, Leigh, and the neighbour hood, and soon after arrived the great body from Bolton, where they immediately compelled the mill-owners in Hindley to turn out their hands—the mob themselves taking out the plugs from the boilers, and letting off the water. This was about eleven o'clock, and not a constable or officer in the whole village to protect the property of the inhabitants. The Rev. H. J. Jenning, rector of Wigan, was sent for, early in the morning, as one of the nearest county magi strates, to swear in some special constables, but no other county magistrates arrived until after the mob appeared, who at once endeavoured to effect an entrance into the house in which Mr. Jenning, along with Messrs. Pennington (ex tensive spinners), were staying. In this unprotected posi tion, it was expected the rioters would commit serious de predations • a messenger was, therefore, sent by a circuitous route to Wigan, to fetch some of the soldiers stationed in our barracks. A detachment of whom was imme diately sent off, and remains there until now. After plundering most of the provisions shops in Hindley, the mob wended its way towards Wigan, stopping at the Bird-V-th-Hand public house to demand a large quantity of ale, which was given to them without hesitation, for fear of injury. The coal works of James Whaley, Est., did not escape the notice of the body in their march, and all the men employed at them were compelled to cease working. The mob now began to assume a serious aspect, for weapons were procured from every place they visited. On intima tion being given to the magistrates in Wigan of the approach of the rioters, they assembled in the Town-hall, and the special constables who had been sworn in also repaired to the same place as the general rendezvous. Every shop was immediately closed, and business ceased for the day. At about twelve o'clock, the body came through the Market place, shouting and brandishing their weapons, some being armed with bludgeons, others with hammers, bars of iron, pick handles, and every description of staff likely to inflict a heavy blow. As they marched through the Market place, the mob occasionally halted, crying out in defiance to the policemen ; and as they passed the hall, a careful examination of the numbers convinced us that not less than 8000 strangers were parading our streets ; many of them, however, were women and boys. All the factories were visited by the mcb and the plugs taken out of the boilers. Many of th e provision dealers were giving away loaves, and a butcher who was closing his shop was compelled to w w h h i o c h w w e a r s e e a f g o e r r t l n y n d a tee vcount r u e p d all in th a e m ra e w at s h t e ate had by on t n h a o n s d e , which \Nr had ceased and enough to obtain a piece. After walkin g roun d the town, they went up the Stand ish g ate, and Wi g an-l ane , to workingLeyland at M n i o ll o , n. (H T a those of W. H.

From here they proceeded to Haigh Hall, the residence of the Earl of Bal carres, where a great quantity of provisions was given to them, and which appeared to have good effect, for the body then marched towards Bolton, over Aspull Moor, without again entering Wigan. A many rough looking fellows how ever, still remain in our streets, but there is no appearance of the least disturbance, neither is any to be apprehended, for a proclamation has been posted in the most conspicuous parts of the town, offering £5O reward for the apprehension of any of the rioters. We cannot close our notice without extending the meed of praise due to the officers and soldiers of the 72nd, whose willingness sufficiently showed, that had occasion required it, we should have received from them im portant service. _ Eleven o'clock. The town remains quiet ; but part of the special constables will remain on duty during the night. SERIOUS RIOTS AT NEWCASTLE AND NEIGH- BOURHOOD. Verbal intelligence has just been received, through a con ductor of the Northern Railway train, that yesterday (Mon day), the strike of the colliers at and near Newcastle-upon- Tyne had become general, thus showing the extent of the ramifications of the great and lamentable m ovement amongs t the working population. Serious riots had taken place, at Newcastle in partimilar, where the c o lli ers a tt ac k e d the Gaol, and afterwards the residence of one of the magis trates. Every possible means was resorted to to suppress these disturbances ; hut we are yet with out i n f ormat i on as to the result, or whether any lives were lost. FIFTH EDITION. Standard Office, Half-past Five o'clock. THE POTTERIES. BURSLEM, One o'clock, Monday. To-day the military have fired upon the rioters, and one man has been killed, and several others seriously injured. Every colliery, factory, tavern, and shop is closed, and when I left my inn this morning, on my return, I could not obtain admittance. The riot act has been read. The military are very efficient, and are now engaged in active service against the rioters. fttpping fittelligenre. FRIDAY, AvotisT 12.—Wind S.W. fresh.

We have had a large supply of stock at this day's market, which met with a very limited demand at a reduction of id p lb upon most articles. Prime Beef 6d • middling 5d to sid ; prime Wethers 6id ; Ewes sid to 6d, and Lamb sid to 6d, sinking the offal. Number of Beasts 1202; Sheep and Lambs 8244. LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. AUGUST 12. Since Monday we have few arrivals of English Wheat, those of foreign are fair, btit neither can be disposed of excepting at a re duction from the prices obtained on that day, and sales are very limited. In Barley. Beans, and Peas we observed no alteration in valise. Oats are more inquired after, and the fine qualities obtained rather better prices, but inferior are difficult to quit on late terms. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, Au°. 12. We have a good arrival of Wheat, the great bulk of which is foreign. The trade continues dull, and so limited is the demand that occasional sales are made at less money; but there is no general disposition to submit to lower rates. Barley nominal. Oats as before, and shelling Is per load higher. Beans and other articles without variation in value. Harvest in this part will com mence on Monday, pretty generally ; the southern districts have secured some quantity of Wheat; the quality everywhere is stated to be beautiful, but yield is not yet ascertained, so as to report with accuracy . some plots are well spoken of; others decidedly deficient. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, ApcusT 13. We cannot observe the least improvement in our Butter market; prices of the best descriptions of Butter nominally 78s to 805 ; middling and inferior kinds 7s to Ss per cwt. lower. The make both of Irish and domestic has been at no former period more abundant ; this fact in combination with the alarmingly insubor dinate state of the operative population in the manufacturing dis tricts ;—must, we apprehend cause, for some time, still greater depression. Pickled Butter is shipping in considerable quantities for the Brazils and West Indies. We believe, however, that it is principally on Cork account. We hear of few sales making on the spot, and the currency is without alteration. Good heavy Beef is worth llss to I2os per tierce. Other sorts 905 to loos. We are informed by influential curers, that any quantity of new Beef need not be looked for before November. Pork very dull indeed, and holders ready to take almost any price that is offered. In this article, our Irish friends may expect greater competition with foreigners, than in Beef. MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 13. The agitation which has this week been caused by the cessation from work (either voluntary or in consequenc of the threats of ill disposed persons) of nearly the whole of the labouring classes in this and all the surrounding towns and district, has caused nearly a total suspension of business. It need not be stated that the corn trade fully participates in the effects so suddenly and alarmingly produced- We have consequently to report the transaction of a very limited business in every article during the week. The weather, with the exception of one or two thunder showers, has continued very favourable for harvest, which is proceeding rapidly in all the mid land, southern, and south-eastern counties, with every prospect - of a most satisfactory result. Rather more firmness was shown in the Wheat trade yesterday, at Liverpool, but owing to the cause above alluded to, our market to-day is thinly attended, and scarcely any business is done. The value of best Wheats remains nominally as on this day week. Flour Is. 10 2s. per sack, Oats id. per bushel, Meal Is. to 2s. per load, and Beans Is. per quarter lower. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 13. The demand during the early part of the week continued good, both from the Trade and Speculators, and a further advance of fully id per lb was obtained upon the lower and midling qualities of American and Surat. Since Tuesday the inquiry has con siderably abated, owing to the unexpected occurrence of dis turbances in the manufacturing districts, and the abeve advance on American is now barely supported. Speculators have taken 11,000 American and 250 Surat, and Exporters 1800 American, 100 Pernambuco and 300 Surat. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the sth to the 11th instant, inclusive.

Lately, drowned, a litttle distance from New York, Mr. THOS. HUNTER, seaman on board the Laurel, deeply regretted by his friends. On the 23rd of December, at Old Calabar, on board the Captain Ross, aged 29, Mr. RICHARD W. PORTER, surgeon, third son of William Porter, gentleman, of Lincoln. He had been eight years in the African trade, and was on the eve of returning to his native country to receive the thanks and justly-merited reward of his employers for his unrelaxed exertions, integrity and zeal for their interest, and his care and attention to the men placed under his charge. On the 25th ultimo, sincerely regretted, Mrs. MARGARET HUNT, Trafalgar-street, formerly of Bagilt, North Wales. Same day, at the Holly Lodge, Lymington, aged 92, Mr. JOHN FROST. He was the Secretary and one of the founders of the Corresponding Society. In 1792 lie harboured Gerrald. In 179 s he was elected with Joel Barlow, Deputy from the Constitutional Society in France. After his return he was sentenced to the pillory, for seditious words in commendation of the proceedings in France, drawn from him by a spy; but the pillory was pulled down by the people, and the sentence remained unexecuted. In 1501 he was elected for East Grinstead ; a pardon from his sentence as a felon being obtained by the influence of Sheridan, to remove an objection to the validity of the election. He married early; but, living unhappily with his wife, they se;arated after two daughters were born ; who survived their parents. On the 27th ultimo, at Cheetham-hill, Manchester, of typhus fever, MARIAN, daughter of the Rev. It. NEWTON, Wesleyan Minister. On the Ith instant, at Everton, MARGARET, second daughter of the late Mr. JOHN ELLIOTT, of Manchester. Same day, at the Glebe-house, kilrush, aged upwards of go, the Rev. IRWIN WHITTY. Same day, at his seat, in Hampshire, the Right Hon. WILLIAM NOEL Lord BERWICK, of Attringharn-hall, Shropshire. His lordship died unmarried, and is succeeded by his brother, the Hon. and Rev. Richard Noel Hill, M.A., Rector of Berrington, Shrop shire. It may be remarked, as a somewhat uncommon occurrence, for three brothers in succession to take the title of their father. On the :sth instant, after a short but severe illness, Mr. THOS. HODGSON, formerly pawnbroker in this town, and son-in-law of the late Mrs. Ann Addison, Clarence-street. Oh the 6th instant, at I3ickerstaffe-hall, near Orrnskirk, Mr. ABRAHAM GREAVES, late of Monk Royd, near Pontefract, a celebrated agriculturist, highly respected by all who knew bins. On the 7th instant, aged 31 years, JAMES, son of Mr. T PENDLEBURY, Hulton. On the Bth instant, CATHERINE EMMA, youngest daughte of Mr. H. MITCHELL, of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway On the gth instant, at Leamington, HUMPHREY SENHOUSE, Esq., of Nether-hall, Cumberland. Same day, at her father's residence, 1, Wesley-street, aged 20. REBECCA, the dearly-beloved daughter and first-born of the Rev. Dr. BEAUMONT. She possessed a mind of more than ordinary firmness, comprehension, and vigour; and was highly accomplished by the operations of great natural taste, by the love of order, and by the products of an education various and extended. Her piety being enlightened and sincere, deep and elevated, habitual and practical, she was ever conscientious and faithful, decided and correct, noble and generous in all her principles and proceedings. During a long and painful affliction, which she bore with more than the firmness of a philosopher and all the resignation of a saint, the chiefest graces of the Gospel shone brightly in her character; and being, like the Saviour, in whom she trusted, made perfect through sufferings, she has passed through the church militant to join that which is triumphant and immortal. Requiescunt in pace. Nil nisi truce. On the 10th instant, aged 7 months. ROBERT, son of Mr. T. KERR, grocer, Preston-street. Same day, suddenly, aged 71, Mrs. MARY BRUCE, mother of Mrs. Moore, Ranelagh-street. For fifty years she adorned the true principles of Methodism.

The decea se d no b leman will be succeeded in his title, if not estates, by his son, Henry Westerna, beenw daps' a r s one of the present members for Monaghan, whose elevation to the peerage will, of course, create a vacancy in the representation of that county.
