TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 19, 1848. Our Irish brethren seem determined to exhaust all the little patience which the world has left for them. The humble and the heart-stricken beggar we can put. up with ; the lazy .and the inprovident we have shown that we can tolerate ; but the brawl ing beggar we set down as a nuisance. The wallet we excuse, as legitlinate stock in trade ; but the pike is an adjunct we can well dispense with. In common with all the world, we thought we had seen the last of the . great Irish Rebellion of 1848; that the long-threatened Repeal insurrection had, to use the language of the New York Morning Herald, " turned out a gigantic bag of gaS, which collapsed by a single push - of a British bayonet." The most prominent of its leaders were safely en sconced in the receptacles provided for ordinary felons—the common county gaols. The men, who were only to be captured at the cost of the blood of millions, were quietly walked away with by the un aided force of the police. " The Repeal"—the pre text for all this hubbub and bluster—in behalf of which we have been inundated with talk, and for which a credulous people have paid some hundreds of thousands of their bard-earned money, was shelved for at least another quarter of a century; at all events until the Celtic heart becomes inspired with valour sufficient to give execution to the large promises of its tongue. But, contrary to all ex pectation, the rebellion has broken out afresh; or, we presume, we are being visited with the fag end of it. Tipperary has not yet had its fill of outrage; and the " fine peasantry" of that portion of the gem of the sea are in arms, not for the Repeal ex actly, but, as it would seem, out of pure love for the career of outlaws and cut-throats. There is no other tangible reason to be adduced for their wicked absurdities. How long is this sort of thing to be endured ? How long are our troops to he harassed, and the pa tience and money of an entire people to be wasted, in the apparently endless task of keeping these un civilized hordes in order ? Not for any great length of time, we trust ; for we can tell our Irish brethren that much longer the British people will not endure -- the infliction. Bye and bye, we are well aware, that we shall be called upon to provide some sort of . E . sp for a population who are now wantonly expend mg in powder, in signal fires, and other senseless and purposeless dem on strations, the money which would have found them in food for the winter. We shall be told of failing potatoe crops, of evictions, of cruel landlords, who would have their rents, and other causes of Celtic suffering and turbulence. But the fact stands plainly before us that the ob jects, in whose behalf our aid is continually solicited, are incorrigibly averse to working for their own living; that they are as ungrateful and insolent as they are dishonest; and "the hated Saxon" is not unlikely to ask himself the question why he should toil and scheme for the support of such a people. We tire of taxation of the kind. It is unpleasant to feel that every shilling we give is so much con tributed for the encouragement of squalid and ha bitual disaffection. It is not at all certain that the disorders to which we refer may not have some influence upon the temper with which the British public may regard the treatment to be meted out to the rebel leaders, who are about to be put upon trial for their offences against law and order. We could, perhaps, have afforded to be lenient towards these misguided par ties. We could have forgiven offenders, whose pe nitence was apparent. B,ut forgiveness cannot be expected when we see hourly before our eyes the disposition to commit crime ; when we have it thus clearly demonstrated to us that a serious rebellion has only been prevented from occurring because the men to whom its leadership was committed were unequal to the task assigned to them. Leniency towards such men is out of place, so long as their would-be followers maintain their present armed attitude. Another result, too, may arise out of this absurd and criminal outbreak. The attention of the people of England, and the legislature, may be drawn to that religious teaching which permits a people to be thus held continually in a position be ' tween beggary and furious rebellion ; to be whining mendicants one day and blood-thirsty robbers the other. The religious teaching must be bad, when such is 'the 'social result. The decision of the Council on Wednesday in favor of rating the Docks, although we have still a further ordeal to go through, places us in a very much improved position. The Vestry and the Council, the representatives of the ratepayers and the representatives of the burgesses, now work for the same object and in the same•direction; and an application to parliament, coming from a union of two such bodies, must have far greater weight than the mere desultory movement of only one of them. Moreovar, if we are not mistaken, the question is making greater progress in the minds of the public than is generally imagined • and the reports given of the able speeches of Mr. S. Holme and Mr. Hugh Hornby, will increase the impression already made. •Upwards of 4000 houses are unoccupied within the borough, and these abstract a tolerably large slice out of the parish income. We see some symptoms, however, of a still further defalcation. The warehouse property of the town has always been said to contribute from one fifth to one fourth of the entire rates But are the owners and occu piers of that kind of property able to continue pay ing so largely ? Unquestionably not. Both the value and the productiveness of warehouse property has decreased largely and is decreasing daily, the facilities now provided for the conveyance of mer chandise and raw materials into the interior, and the termination. in so many cases of the bonding system, having rendered it both unnecessary and unadvisable to retain such large stocks in our port. The rental of such property is rapidly declining, a large portion of it is unoccupied, and the whole will have to he re-surveyed, and a much lower rating put upon it. Thus a further burthen will be thrown upon the shopkeepers and other rate payers; and every such addition will give a further impulse to this movement. We cannot join with those who, in the teeth of all this evidence of our fearful state, contend that parliament will not permit the only remedy within our reach to be applied. Let our case be once fairly brought before it, supported by our two pub lic bodies, and the almost unanimous voice of the rate paying inhabitants, and it must be listened to, or parliament must adopt steps of their own for our relief. THE settled weather of the past fortnight has dissipated all fear of the harvest being secured ; and, with the exception of the petty hostilities going on between the Neapolitans and Sicilians, and the as yet unsettled Schleswig Holstein affair, there is apparent throughout Europe every dispo sition, on the part of the masses, to settle down from their late revolutionary fever and resume their wonted occupations of peaceful industry. Food of all kinds is cheap and abundant; and, what is of eqnal importance, it is now ascertained that the year's crop of the leading raw material of our cot ton manufacture is a full one. Under all these concurrent favourable circumstances we ought to have been now experiencing a revival in every branch of business. We find, however, no such result generally. On the contrary, dullness pre vails almost universally, and there hangs a gloom - unaccountable over every market. We fear that there is too great a probability that this feeling will continue for a little longer; that it is not to be removed by genial sunshine, or by abundance of all that is required for the wants of lite; that neither nations nor individuals are as yet - prepared to throw aside their sad memories of the past, and.to put forth afresh and freely their indus trial and , commercial ener g i e s. Th ere s till l o oms upon us, irom the midst o f re t urn i ng tranquillity, agiant object, one movement of whose arm may, at any moment, involve the whole in confusion. France lies before us, held down for the present by a military despotism and her wild passions strug gling for a vent,' nursing the atrocious doctrines of her philosophers and her ultra-republican politi cians. Her "red" faction still dream of the day when they will be free to sweep away the few re maining figments of institutions, property, and law, and to commence, at length, the realisation of their cherished ideas of a social millenium. A mo ment of indecision of the part of General Cavaignac and his government, a petty collision, the merest spark to kindle the smouldering flame, and France, if not Europe, may become a battle-field. The vague fears which we entertain, with respect to the position of this excitable people, may prove to be overstrained. The returning good sense of an entire people may interfere to crush the power for evil which their infidel demagogues unfortu nately possess. But so long as a bare possibility of the triumph of the latter remains, even although such triumph may be only a temporary one, perfect confidence cannot he expected to spread itself throughout the family of European nations. The very attitude of armed readiness which each is compelled to occupy, and the cost of that attitude, loading industry with burthens and deranging finance, operate as a bar to a return to a perfectly healthy state of things, All history assures us of this fact. Those commercial operations which it requires a considerable period to bring to a satis factory conclusion, and the calculations with respect to which must be made upon a basis whose security can be depended upon; the commerce which we carry on with distant markets ; will not be under taken so long as the prospect exists of their being converted into disaster and attended with ruinous results, however well they may have been forecasted, by the violent interruption of the position of na tions towards each other. This prospect will exist until France shall possess at once a settled• and a strong government; and such a one, we fear, can not be found until her republicanism shall have as sumed a less ultra form, or a different race of statesmen springs up to assume the helm of her affairs. There is another impediment to our own return to a condition of commercial activity and prosperity. We have a Government, unfortunately, which does not possess the confidence of the commercial por tion of the nation; under whose blighting legisla tion our colonies are being alienated and ruined ; who are continually unsettling one or other branch of industry or of commerce, or tampering with some of the fixed institutions of the country. Under the domination of such a government no commercial transaction, no speculation, no investment is safe. We can neither build a ship nor import a cargo without the fear of running our heads against a wall, or seeing our anticipated profits swept from our hands by some bungling piece of free trade or financial policy. Moreover, we have the fact staring us in the face, that we are every day running deeply into debt, without a single effort being made to grapple with an evil, so certain to bring upon us monetary suffering or national humiliation. We beg to direct the attention of our readers to an article in another part of our paper, from the Morning Herald, containing a disclosure which does indeed stamp Popery as "the mystery of ini quity," and teach a startling lesson to churchmen and to statesmen of the danger of having dealings with her. Dr. Hook has now clearly proved that there has been a professed Roman Catholic minis tering for the last two years in the parish church of Leeds; drawing his stipend from an establish ment whose religious principles he deems heretical; reading and teaching from a Liturgy, which de nounces that Popery, which in secret he has em braced, as idolatrous. Undoubtedly all this could not by done without the knowledge of his popish superiors. He must have had a dispensation from them. He was a wolf in the flock doing their work; and the serious question suggests itself whether his is a solitary instance. WHAT a wonderful contrast is presented in the conditions of Scotland and Ireland at the present moment ! In the former Her Majesty, with her consort and her court, are roaming over flood and fell, and luxuriating amidst some of the noblest scenery of which this or any other empire can boast. Her subjects, from the hiizhest in station to the humblest, are striving with each other how most fitly to do her honour, and to contribute to her pleasure. In the latter, possessed of advantages infinitely superior, the picture presented is one of outrage, idleness, and disaffection to the person and the rule of the sovereign. No resident nobility — no feudal lords there—could pride themselves in presenting to her notice their tenantry and retain ers ; in allowing her to enter into the cottages of their humblest hinds, to visit their village schools, or to sit in the House of God, where a decorous and happy congregation are met to worship. There is nothing of all this—nothing to resemble the scenes of which we daily read as coming before the eye of royalty in Scotland—capable of bein g realised in the sister land. Were her Majesty to set her foot there, she would more probably be met with little beyond scowling looks and mutterings of turbulent discontent. How can we account for such a contrast ? What is it which keeps Ireland constantly plunged in misery and disorder, whilst a country upon which nature has conferred infinitely less of fertility and of the means of industrial development, presents so different a spectacle ? The answer is,—the differ ence between the education and the religious training of their people. The Scottish peasant is a freeman—moral, industrious, and fairly educated for his position in life. The Irish peasant is the slave of his spiritual instructor, bound down to the earth by the meshes of a blinding superstition, taught to hate all above him in station, and kept, from youth to age, in feud with his landlord, his Protestant employer, and with all who do not pander to his bad passions. The one as well as the other has been deprived of the imposing fiction of a national parliament and a resident court. The one as well as the other has its act of union. Scot land, however, has taught her sons to look up to, instead of curse, the powerful nation to whose des tinies she is united ; to cling to her strong neigh bour, and, by its aid, to set about the development of her internal resources; whilst Ireland, with a perverseness which seems inherent in the temper of her people, only because it is the lesson taught them from the cradle by the spiritual teachers set over them, refuses advantages which would raise her to the highest rank in the scale of prosperity, intelligence, and power. And thus it will remain so long as the blighting influence of Popery hangs over the national mind of Ireland, and the priest and the demagogue usurp the places of the natural protectors of the people. GnEAT GEORGE-STREET ACADEMY.—Yesterday MOTH ing, the Rev. H. Hampton delivered a very appropriate and instructive address to the pupils of that well-known establishment. We understand that the native Chinese—Chun-a-you— into_the Christian Church on Sunday even ing last, by the ordinance of baptism, at Holy trinity Church, Woodside. The City of Dublin Company have received notice from the Postmaster-General that, at the expiration of six months, the contract for the conveyance of the evening mails from this port will not be renewed. On Saturday an illicit still was seized in a cellar on the old Chester road, Birkenhead. The occupier of the cellar, his wife, and a man engaged with them have been taken into custody. ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE.—Mr. Copeland provides most liberally for our entertainment this week, Mr. W. Farren and Mrs. Glover being announced to appear in a sulces sion of comedies of the highest order. Several parties have produced very pretty representa tions of the burning of the Ocean Monarch, but we think the most spirited one is a lithographic print by Messrs. Maclure ani Co., who have grouped together the illfated vessel, the frigate, the Welsh steamer, the yacht, and the various boats employed on the occasion, in very beautiful style. CAUTION TO CABMEN.—On Saturday evening last, a cabman, named Patrick Roy, ran over an elderly lady, named Roseville, causing her severe bodily injury, from the effects of which ;she has not yet recovered. On the man being brought before Mr. Rushton yesterday, ho was ordered to be remanded until such time as the woman was perfectly recovered, when the case would be heard. AN IRISH BEGGAR.—Yesterday, at the Police-court. a sturdy fellow in the garb of an Irish reaper was brought before Mr. Rushton, charged with begging in the streets. The officer stated that when he was searched £1 19s. was found upon his person. Mr. Rushton, after reprimanding the prisoner, sentenced him to a month's imprisonment — ordering at the same time that the expenses of keeping him in the prison during his confinement should be de. ducted from the amount found upon him. COMMITMENTS AT THE POLICE COURT, YESTERDAY. —A woman named Mary WAlister, for stealing, on Sa turday, a quantity of wearing apparel from Jane Evans, in Cuthbert-street, was committed for trial at the sessions. —Edward Hughes, and Elizabeth Downing, were com mitted for trial, for uttering base coin in Houghton street.—John Hughes, and Michael Mc Hugh, for ob taining money under false pretences, were committed to gaol for three months.—Elizabeth Davidson, for robbing Henry Laing of £lss. in cash, was committed for two months. THE LIVERPOOL MANDARD. THE APPROACHING MUNICIPAL ELECTION. ST. PETER'S WARD. A meeting of the electors of this ward was held last night,- at the Clarendon Rooms, the members of the Na tional Confederation having expressed a desire to nominate Mr. Ferguson, one Of the churchwardens, for the vacancy in the Council, arising from the retirement by rotation of Mr. Stewart. The meeting wack numerously attended, and was most enthusiastic in the object in view. Mr. M'ln tyre, surgeon, was called to the chair, and opened the busi ness by stating, that they had now to select a candidate for the vacancy, and that he should be glad to hear any proposition that might be made by any one present. Mr. John SMITH, (of the Mercury-office) in an elegant and impressive address, proposed Mr. Ferguson, .as a gentleman peculiarly fitted from his abilities, his long ex perience as a parochial officer, and iis continued care to economise the funds of the parisioners. Mr. Ferguson was a gentleman who was well known to the ratepayers of Liverpool, during a long period of life, in the course of which he had filled various situations connected with the financial arrangement of public bodies, and which in every way qualified him for being the representative of such a ward as St. Peter's. He would therefore propose that "John Ferguson is a fit and proper person to re present the ratepayers of St. Peter's ward in the Town Council, as the avowed advocate of economy in the ex penditure of the public money. and an equitable adjust ment of the necessary local burdens." He concluded by representing the Town Council as a most important body, having an immense and growing estate under their con trol, and capable, if good representatives were returned, of rendering the town the envy of surrounding countries, and the admiration of the kingdom. (Hear.) Mr. THOMPSON inquired if any one present could in form him why an old servant should be turned overboard in behalf of a new candidate ? Mr. MINTON said that, in his opinion, Mr. Stewart had neglected his duty in the Council ; that he was absent on all occasions when his vote was wanted to economise the expenditure. Had he attended and given his vote conscientiously, though against the general views of the constituency, his conduct might have met with forbear ance. As it was, he thought they had better cease to sup port him. He paid a high compliment to Mr. Ferguson as a model of a good citizen—active, honourable, and ever desirous, though at personal sacrifices, to support the pub lic good. It was then moved and seconded, " That this meeting invite Mr. Ferguson to become a candidate for St. Peter's Ward at the ensuing election ; and pledges itself to use its best efforts to secure his return." _ _ A committee was then elected (with power to add to their numbers) to carry out the objects of the meeting. It was then moved and seconded, and unanimously passed, " That a subscription should be commenced by the friends of Mr Ferguson, in order to defray the expenses of that gentleman's election." Mr. WATSON warmly advocated this motion after it was passed, with a view to set a going the machinery for the requisite collection, by taking the names of contributors, which was immediately complied with. After a vote of thanks to the chairman the meeting sepa rated—the greatestunanimity having prevailed throughout. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. Commissioner PERRY.) IN RE TERENCE BELLEW MC. MANTIS. Tn the case of this bankrupt, who is well known to be one of the rebel leaders and now in custody in Ireland on a charge of sedition, Mr. Yates, jun., solicitor, applied for an extension of time for the bankrupt to surrender until some day in December. He thought the bankrupt would be tried about the Ist October. His Honor enlarged the time to the 16th October, and in the course of his remarks intimated that the time might, if necessary, be enlarged from time to time, as there is an indictment preferred against him also at Liverpool. MEETING LAST NIGHT ON THE SUBJECT OF REFUSAL OF SITES FOR THE FREE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND. Last night a numerous and highly respectable meeting was held in the Concert-hall, Lord Nelson-street, to meet a deputation sent down by the Committee of the Free Church of Scotland, to hear an explanation of the diffi culty under which that Church labours, owing to the re fusal of certain great landowners to grant or sell sites for the erection of churches upon their properties. John Cropper, Esq. was moved into the chair, and after prayer being offered up by the Rev. Mr. Gardner, and a few introductory remarks from the Chairman, The Rev. Dr. BEGG proceeded to bring before the Meeting the precise position in which the Free Church stood, which he remarked was one which was scarcely understood sufficiently by the English public. The two conntries differed entirely in their position. In Scotland, at the period of the Reformation, the possesiions of the Church of Rome were granted almost wholly to the aristocracy, whilst in England they were divided in part among the aristocracy and in part to the endowment of the Reformed Church. The law of entail was also more strict in Scotland ; and as the result, the soil was par celled out in very large portions, some of the great holders having estates of thirty or forty miles in length, and one possessing a whole county. Dissent, too, in Scotland was now the rule, and in England only the exception. When the disruption took place in Scotland, the bulk of the people went from the Church, with their ministers. And they were on a sudden thrown upon the difficulty of pro viding churches, schools, and ministers' houses. At first they met in temporary places, in the open air, and on the the hill sides ; but they found that in many parts of the country they were met, in their applications for sites for building permanent churches, by the landowners with direct refusals. Some of these were subsequently with drawn, and sites granted. This was the case with the pro perty of the Duke of Sutherland, on which all the congre gations were now supplied with churches. There were other landowners who had promised sites, and when the concession came to be examined, it was found to be worth nothing, many of the sites being so situated as to be most inconvenient for the congregations. One granted by the Duke of Richmond, in Banffshire, was six miles away from the glen inhabited by the free hurchmen ; whilst Lord Cawdor accompanied his with restrictions of the most preposterous character. There were many cases in which sites continue to be absolutely refused. Such was the case in the Isle of Skye, where he had himself seen up wards of 3,000 persons worshipping on the side of a hill; in Ardnaremuchaw they were compelled to build a float ing church, which they moored on an inland lake. On the property of Lord Ward, recently purchased, and on which he was rooting out the population to make way for deer, they were absolutely refused any site. The Duke of Buccleugh, who owned a part of five counties, had re sisted the movement in every way ; but they had suc ceeded in some of these in meeting with small patches of land to suit their purpose, whice were held by private parties. After a long series of details of their proceedings with his lordship and other landowners, the reverend gentleman concluded with an eloquent appeal for the sympathies of Englishmen, • and a denunciation of the coqueting which is going on with popery, and of any endowment of the priesthood by this country—a mea sure in which his English hearers would find the whole of Scotland ready to assist them in resistance to the utter most. The rev. gentleman concluded amidst loud cheers. The meeting was subsequently addressed by D. D. M. Crichton, Esq., at the close of whose speech, of which we cannot give even a sketch, our reporter was forced to leave. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (BY EXPRESS.) LA PLATA. By the arrival at Havre of the French vessel Parana, we are in possession of intelligence direct from Monte N ideo to the 18th of July. The position of affairs was not materially changed. In spite of the attacks directed by Oribe against the capital of Uruguay, and notwithstanding the embarkation on board the French steamers of part of the French force, the city still held out, but the position of the unfortunate inhabitants was exceedingly precarious. - Coin had become very scarce in consequence of conti nued exportation, and commerce was de facto at a stand still since the re-opening of the Argentine ports, which had drawn away the European ships to them. Emigra tion on a grand scale was consequently the order of the day, and every vessel was carrying off to Europe or the Brazils some families with all that they could realise. The raising of the blockade of Buenos Ayres had in creased the insolence of Rosas, by whose orders the news papers in his interest abused France and its agents with the grossest invectives. The points on the western coast occupied by Oribe were still blockaded by the French squadron. A rumour was current at Monte Video at the departure of the Paqueboy of Parana that a secret emissary from Rosas had arrived there, bearing the conditions of a peace with the Montevidean government. PARIS, SUNDAY, 6 30 P.M. The sway of General Cavaignac draws to a close. His popularity, in the Assembly and out of it, has already ex pired, and his fall must necessarily soon follow. The fundamental dissension which prevails between him and the moderate majority in the Chamber, as well as his ruPP ,- 00 4 0nzent with thaircy.a,u l ,.... vwc.va rpn ororl so glaring in the debate of yesterday, that it is difficult to see how things can go on much longer as they are without a crisis. The speech of M. Falloux has produced a great sensation. He has been congratulated by M. Thiers and his party, and is already marked out as an aspirant to the highest rank in it. It is now known that several other of the most exalted of the red republicans were destined for missions into the departments, to democratise the country, if that project had not been crushed by the debate of yesterday. The discussion of yesterday has contributed materially to the chances of success of Marshal Bugeaud. A great number of electors who had refused their votes have since given them to him, as a means of exhibiting their oppo sition to General Cavaignac, of whom he is a decided political enemy. The agitation of Paris is very great on account of the elections. Lists of candidates, and advice to the electors, continue to be posted up on all the walls of the capital. EXHIBITION OF THE LIVERPOOL ACADEMY. This exhibition opened on Wednesday ; and we believe we are not far wrong in prophesying that it will be one of the most successful which has been held in Liverpool. At all events there is sufficient talent, both general and local; to render it worthy of this result. Amongst the exhibitors we notice some of the most eminent artists of the day ; and we are glad to observe very many works of artists, not previously known to fame, which are well worthy of criti cism. The hackneyed favourites of the public, we know, care little for the observations of the press. When men get to a certain height in the ladder of fame and of fortune, they have a marvellous forgetfulness of the means which have contributed to their advancement. Some can afford to harbour this feeling; but aspirants will, we trust, be lieve us when we say that in any observations which we may make upon their works we shall be quite unmindful of any returns of this kind, favourable or unfavourable, which we may have received. We can scarcely, in this first notice, attempt detailed criticism of individual pictures. We must confine our selves rather to a .statement of the general impressions which the exhibition has afforded us. It has produced little which is positively great in design or execution. Here no great names showing us great works. But there is an evidence of previously unknown merit rising to previously unknown excellence. Possibly this may arise from an increased exertion of the taste of the committee. This, however, is certain, there are fewer decidedly bad pictures in this exhibition than in any other which we have visited. We notice many new artists most favourably placed ; and several well-known names placed precisely as their merits deserve. When clever painters paint bad pictures, it is not fair that they should have the same places as men with less previously-acquired fame, perhaps, but who have suc cessfully endeavoured to earn it by care and study. There are difficulties, however, in the way of the com mittee of this institution, as there are in those of all simi lar institutions. Great men will sometimes paint great pictures,—great in the space they cover—and these great pictures must be accommodated, while some little gem must be content to be accommodated in a corner. Of course all this has to be considered; and it would be worth the while of parties visiting this and every other ex hibition to bear in mind that "number 1" is not necessarily the picture which the committee set down as the first in their estimation, and that there is many a talented pro duction which they have been compelled to place in com paratively obscure situations. The picture upon which, on this occasion, the seal of excellence has been set, by the bestowal upon its artist of the £5O prize, is the " Euphrosyne" of W. E. Frost, A.R.A., the subject of which is taken from a well-known passage in Milton's " L'Allegro." "Haste thee, nymph, and bring with thee, Jest and youthful jollity; Quips and cranks, and wanton wiles, Nods and becks, and wreathed smiles, Such as hang on Hebe's cheek, And love to live in dimple sleek ; Sport that wrinkled care derides, And laughter holding both his s ides; Come and trip it as you go, On the light fantastic toe." This painting is characterised by extraordinary finish, — a lesson to those artists who affect rudeness of touch, and who seem to throw in their colours instead of laying them on ;—and the grouping is very fine. The abandon of Euphrosyne, and of some others of the figures, is very rich, and the painting altogether is one of first-rate merit. No doubt it is the best picture in the exhibition ; but there are many which we should ourselves prefer, as a matter of taste, however. We shall have an opportunity of noticing the exhibition in detail : and when we state that it extends to 688 sub jects we shall perhaps be excused for not doing so in a preliminary critique. One feels bewildered in a first, or even a second view of such an abundant exhibition of art, amongst which there is an unusually small quantity of the mediocre. Indeed, we may say, candidly, that there is scarcely a picture which is not good. IN RE H. ROLLIE. The bankrupt applied for his certificate and was opposed by Mr. Peacock for the assignees, on the grounds of ab straction of his property, gambling, and betting on horse. racing, and with having obtained credit by false represen tations of the state of his affairs. He underwent a search ing examination by Mr. Peacock on all the grounds of opposition, in the course of which he stated that he won £3OO at Chester on the horse Intrepid. Mr. Lowndes, for the bankrupt, contended that as it had not been proved that he had ever lost £2O in one day by betting, nor £2OO within 12 months of his bankruptcy, the opposi tion must fail. After a very long examination, the case was adjourned to Thursday, for the production of witnes ses in reference to the disposition of certain goods. BASE COlN.—Three persons, Thomas and Margaret Farrington, and Mary Burns, were yesterday charged at the Police-court with uttering base coin, and being con cerned in making the same. Several cases of uttering base shillings were proved against them, and in the house tenanted by the male, in Rose-place, were found two crucibles for the melting of metal, moulds for casting coin, and other apparatus for the trade of coining. The priso ners were remanded until further evidence could be adduced. THEATRE ROYAL, WILLIAMSON-SQUARE. — This es tablishment opened yesterday evening, fora short season, with the " Flowers of the Forest," in which Mr. Buck stone sustained his original character of Cheap John, a travelling auctioneer, in his usual racy style; with Mrs. Fitzwilliam as Starlight Bess. We need not say that the audience was in roars of la.naliter. Buckstone's " Rough Diamond was second on the list; and the performantspq concluded with his farce of" Our Mary Anne." A num ber of stars are engaged to appear in succession. Mr. Jones, the lithographer, has produced a telling tinted lithographic engraving of the burning of the Ocean Monarch, after the Prince de Joinville's sketch. The proceeds of the sale Mr. Jones will hand over, with a very praiseworthy humanity, to the fund for the relief of the sufferers. Presentation copies have, we believe, been forwarded to His Worship the Mayor, to the Brazilian Consul-General, Admiral Grenfell, and the other parties who distinguished themselves on the occasion, by all of whom it has been highly approved. OPERA AT MANCHESTER. — Mr. Howard Glover is about to try the success of a series of lyrical performances by English artists, at the Theatre-Royal, Manchester. He has engaged Miss Rainforth, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. Galli, Mr. Whitworth, and Mr. Delavanti, besides the pupils of the Musical and Dramatic Academy in London, over which he presides. The band and chorus will con sist of about sixty individuals. The first performance will take place next Saturday, when " The Bride of Lammermoor" is promised. THE WEATHER. — The past week has been most propi tious for bringing up the lee-way in the gathering of the crops, and if the farmers have not availed themselves of it, we can scarcely sympathise with them should they be losers by delay. We have had a succession of the finest bright and sunny days that ever occurred at this advanced season of the year. The grain is, we believe, generally secured, and the growing field and garden crops still look well and promising. The alarm attempted to be raised regarding the potatoes appears to have died away, and the probability is that there will be at least a fairish crop. DEATH FROM A BLOW.—About half-past six o clock on Sunday night, a man, yet unknown, was observed to be maltreating and assaulting a little boy in the neigh bourhood of Great Howard-street. A car-driver named John Kelly, went up to prevent a further assault, and with this view gave the man a push, in consequence of which he fell. He became insensible, and was taken to the Northern Hospital, where he was well attended to, but died at half-past eight yesterday morning. Kelly has since been taken into custody, but it is probable the verdict at the inquest will be " Death by chance medley." SHEEP STEALING.—TWO young men, James Mathison and James Hughes, were yesterday charged before Mr. Rushton with stealing a lamb. A police-officer stated that on Saturday whil he was in Crown-street he heard what he thought was the bleating of a sheep, and going up an entry found the prisoners in possession of a lamb. They said on being challenged that they had found it at Low-hill going at large. The owner said that he had in a field in the neighbourhood of Kensington, 41 lambs, and on selling them found only 40. That which he had seen was marked like the others. The offence is a trans portable one, and the prisoners were committed for trial at the assizes. A REBUIKE.—Honour to the people of Liverpool, wlls have shown themselves both " merry and wise," both "just and generous !" In subscriptions they have raised the munificent aggregate of £6,000 towards the relief of the suffering passengers of the Ocean Monarch. Nine teen out of every twenty of these miserable emigrants are Irish, men, women, and children, and have no more claim on the people of Liverpool than they have on any_ valca a ‘.4.- huuranity• Yet, how nobly has that claim been allowed ! Mean while, how have the gentry and shopkeepers of Dublin been engaged ? They have been ravished with a fantasia by Grisi or a serenade by Mario ! To our everlasting shame, up to this moment, not even a penny subscription has been set on foot to assist and comfort the live debris of the Ocean Monarch.—Dublin World. CRICKET. — The following match was played on Friday and Saturday last on the Birkenhead ground, between the Garrison of Liverpool and the Birkenhead Club, when the Garrison obtained an easy victory, having 119 runs to spare. The bowling of Messrs. Piper and Fenwick was truly admirable throughout, as also was the batting of Captain Campbell, and Messrs. Dallas, Fenwick, Lake, and Piper, on the part of the Garrison, and Mr. Wright of the Club. . - - • -- --- GARRISON'S SCORE. Capt. Campbell, 46th, b Green-1 street j 9 b Wright 36 Capt.

Consols are quoted 8.5 i to 6 for money, and 86 to for account. Exchequer Bills, 225. to 325. prem. The advices from Amsterdam represent a very calm market in all descriptions of public securities, home and foreign. We have also scarcely any movement in the foreign market here, or alteration from previous quotations. LONDON SHARE MARKET.--YEsTERDAy, The share market for old shares is better this morning. We quote dealings in London and North Westerns, at 107 to 9; Great Westerns, 72 to 4; Midlands, 82 to 3; South Westerns, 35i to 6#; North Staffords, 51 to i ; Great Northern are very heavy, at 11 dis. LONDON CORN MARKET.-YESTERDAY, Our market was tolerably well supplied with English Wheat by land carriage samples from the near counties; choice qua lities of new brought ls. to 2s. above the quotations of Monday last, :but other descriptions of new, and all qualities of old, were not dearer than on that day. Foreign Wheat in fair re quest at previous rates. The quality of the new malting Barley which appeared at market being coarse, sold at from 325. to 345., which is about ls. to 2s. less than on Monday last. Dis tilling and grinding Barley unaltered. Oats maintained the rates of this day se'nnight, but the sale was far from brisk. Peas were the turn dearer. Beans without alteration. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET.-YESTERDAY. We have, for the time of year, an unusually large supply of Beasts. Prime Scots, however, are not over-abundant, and in many instances make 4s. 2d., although, generally, the best qua lities only realise 4s. Inferior kinds are lower, and many remain unsold. The number of Sheep is about the same as of late. Trade is exceedingly dull ; the choicest Downs with diffi culty make 55., and it must be a very selling Long Wool to make 4s. 6d. Calves are shorter, and a very nice one makes nearly 4s. Bd., but more than 4s. 6d. cannot be quoted as average for best qualities. LONDON PRODUCE MARKET-YESTERDAY. The public sales advertised for to-morrow consist of 150 hhds. West India, 5,000 bags Mauritius, and 3,000 bags Bengal Sugar; 150 casks of Jamaica, 3,000 bags Ceylon, 1,500 barrels Rio, and 400 bags Company's Java Coffee; 2,000 bags Madras Rice; and 1,000 bags Saltpetre. The quantity is considered large, parti cularly of Coffee, and there is scarcely anything done by private contract to-day, the aspect of markets continuing gloomy.— Tallow arrvicd during tho wool- . 1.705 casks ; delivered, 2,756 casks.

C. on the spot, 48s. ; October to December delivery, 475. 3d. ; separate months' delivery, 475. 6d. to 9d. The steam-ship America, Captain Leitch, departed from the Mersey on Saturday, for Halifax and New York, with passengers and the usual North American mails. The homeward mails by the Britannia, Captain Lang, which would leave Boston on the 6th, and Halifax on the Bth instant, will be due at this port to-day. NORTH LANCASHIRE.—This has been a glorious week for the harvest. A vast quantity of grain has been stacked, and in the very best condition. Oats, as we said last week, are an enormous crop ; barley is rather variable, but generally very good ; whilst of the wheat we hear much complaint of lightness. We have heard with much plea sure this week that the prospects of the potato crop are brighter than they have been, and that in consequence of the large breadth planted, there will be a good supply— the disease notwithstanding.—Lancaster Gazette. ROBBERY OF BANK NozEs.—On Saturday afternoon, about three o'clock, Mr. W. R. Clover, of the firm of Clover and Co., of Baffin-street, had his pocket picked, between Lord-street and the Exchange, of a pocket book containing a number of Bank of Ehgland notes. The pocket book was of puce-coloured leather. It contained, we learn, notes to the amount of £235, the numbers of which are all known ; two I 0 U's, one for £35 and another for £lO and also various other financial memo randa. None of the money has as yet been found, but the police are on the alert. IMPROVEMENT IN PRINCE'S PARK.—We are happy to find that a new and very pleasant walk has been made through the pasture and some of the smaller plantations at the Princes Park, by which the enjoyment of the pubic will be much increased. It will be particularly useful to those members of Dr. M`Neile's congregation who reside in Liverpool, and whose walk will be both shortened and made more agreeable. Before they get in front of Mr, Conybeare's house, they will find a path leading out of the drive on the left hand, which will conduct them to the church and present them with a beautiful view of it, as also of the plantations and of the river, CRUELTY OF OUR PHILANTHROPY. The awful sacrifice of human life which attends our insane efforts to put down the slave trade, by means of our blockading squadron, whilst we encourage the slaver by giving him almost the monopoly of our markets for his slave-raised produce, seems not at all to affect the British philanthropist and free-trader. It is nothing to them that vessel after vessel comes back from the pesti ferous shores of Africa, leaving behind them half the fine fellows who trod their decks victims of fever and ague, whilst the survivors only reach us with constitutions shattered, and half the promise of a life cut off. We must not abandon this cruel and absurd experiment, for we are, par excellence, the friends of the negro—the champions of freedom throughout the world ! The statistics of the cost at which we purchase these sounding titles may perhaps startle some of our reat.a.k.s. The following is the average mortality of 21 years on the different naval stations of the English service, calculated per 1,000 of the mean force employed : . . South America . Mediterranean 9.3 Home East India . . West Indies.. Coast of Africa . nimonstex of Station, p. 178.) _ . . . , Nearly six per cent. of our crews employed in this pes tilential service are thus yearly cut off, and the seeds of premature death implanted in thousands of once vigorous constitutions ; and vet the slave trade is increasing in spite of all our efforts ! AMATEUR PERFORMANCE BY THE OFFICERS OF THE GARRISON. Undoubtedly the most attractive of the efforts made in our town, in behalf of the poor sufferers from the burning of the Ocean Monarch, was the amateur performance, given on Wednesday evening at :he Royal Amphitheatre, by the officers of the regiments now stationed in camp at Everton. _ _ _ _ _ _ The first piece was the comedy of " Charles the Second, or the Merry Monarch," the parts being supported as follows l— Charles the Second, Capt. Campbell ; Earl of Rochester, Capt. Garrett; Captain Copp, Mr. Liddell, 81st Regt. ; Edward, (a page,) by Mr. Wolridge, 46th Regt. ; the female characters by members of Mr. Cope land's establishment. The piece was excellently put on the stage, the dresses perfect, and the whole was gone through most artistically. In particular, the Capt. Copp of Mr. Liddell was an excellently-sustained character. That gentleman might, indeed, have been an old stager. Mr. Wolridge's page was also a good character, as was Capt. Campbell's merry monarch," and Capt. Garrett's Rochester. We would recommend to not a few of our regular theatrical people to study the mien of these two gentlemen, when playing monarchs and their favourites. There is something, after all, in " walking the stage." A monarch ought to walk, as well as dress, like a gentle man. _ _ _ The ballet of " Myrna" was very ably produced, and followed by the farce of " The Unfinished Gentleman," Lord Totterly being supported by Mr. Nicholls, 46th Regt. ' • The Hon. Mr. Frisk Flammer, by Capt. Camp bell ; Mr. Danvers, by Capt. Wombwell ; Bill Downey, by Capt. Fyffe; Jem Miller, by Mr. Piper, 46th Regt. ; Nibble, by Mr. Crookshank, D.A.C. ; and Robert, by Mr. Steele, 46th Regt. We cannot say that we ever saw the play much better performed. Bill Downey and Jon Miller were especially well played. The house was a crowded one; and we learn that a considerable gain will accrue to the fund for the relief of the poor sufferers, the receipts having been about £140.. which, deducting the charge for the house, expenses, &c., will leave a little over £lOO for the Fund. Mr. Rushton has declined to take bail in Mr. Chubb's case. SINGULAR DEATR.—On Thursday last, a boy eight years of age, named Michael Lanagham, who resided in Bispham-street, was sent by his parents to purchase some tea and sugar at a grocer's shop. In about an hour after his return, he complained of being very ill, and said that he had taken a piece of white stuff off the counter, which he said was sugar, and which he ate. He, soon after stating this, began to vomit, and a dose of castor oil was given to him. On the following day his body became swollen, and a doctor from the dispensary was called in, and prescribed for him. He, however, kept getting cumplcsicied much of a burultig sensation in the throat and stomach. Shortly afterwards he became unable to speak, and languished until Sunday, when he died. The inquest will be held to-day. The substance which he said he had eaten has not yet been ascertained. LIVERPOOL Loch-UP HOUSES.—Recommendations by Mr. F. Hill, in the Thirteenth Report on Prisons, just issued :—" I made the following recommendations, appli cable to all the lock-up houses in Liverpool : —l. A uniform dietary to be adopted of a pound and a half of bread per day to each prisoner, to be given in three meals of half a pound each ; and no prisoner to be required to pay for his food. 2. No keeper or other officer of a lock up house to be allowed to have any interest in the supply of food, or in furnishing beds to prisoners, or in any other way whatever to receive payments from prisoners. 3. Rugs or blankets to be supplied for prisoners during the night, except to such as are in a state of filth or drunkenress. 4. Where there are no water-closets, night-stools to be provided, on a simple plan adopted in many other lock-up houses, and explained by me to the keepers of the lock-up houses. 5. Provision to be made for the prisoners to wash themselves, and no prisoner to be allowed any food until he has washed himself." CIRQUE NATIONAL DE PARIS.—The celebrated eques trian troop of Mons. Dejean will, we understand, com mence another season in this town early in the month of October, and we have no doubt but our townspeople and the gentry of the neighbourhood will again throng to see the performances of this highly respectable and - unequalled company, which has done so much in England to raise the character of equestrian performances. We believe we shall again have the precedence, as last year, to the Me tropolitan season. It will be remembered after leaving this town they commenced a most brilliant career at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, where the performances were honoured by the Royal Family and nobility of the Metro polis, who attended in great numbers the day and night performances. We understand that little Maria Annate has astonished the Parisian public by the rapid advances she has made in her profession, and by her grace and ease upon the saddle of the horse has merited the title of a little Cerito a cheval. • _ _ _ WHITSTABLE OYSTERS.-Mr. :Duffy, of Hanover street. advertises a daily supply of native London oysters, the excellence of which, owing to the rapidity of transit, is quite equal to those Tended m the metropolis itself, dept. 19,1 _ LOUTS PHILIPPE'S NOTES OF HIS Lils One of the most interesting papers found in t he 11 ; r0 14 01 feuille of the ex-King of the French, on his esc a p e the Tuileries, is a sort of chronological statement, ,e''A titled "Notes annales," briefly setting forth the prinel events of his life, which has assuredly been "strange _8:0 eventful." The dates are punctually affixed. It app he was born in Paris on the 6th of Oct., 1778. He of made Colonel in 1785, and first fought at the battles of Boussu and Quarignon in 1792. Same year (the 6710,0 the Republic) he was made Lieutenant-General, an d b e at the battles of Valney and Jernmappes. That Y. t endeavoured in vain to persuade his father to re k `; America. He and his sister 'afterwards took refug,_,,t Bremgarten (1793), and his father, who journeyed ond74, in Switzerland, almost without money, was ref use .fietl mittance by the monks of St. Gothard. After a v— rtot o of adventures in other states, he returned to Breal fet in January, 1794. In 1795, being unable to embe r so d America, ho successively visited Sweden, Nor waY! t he Lapland. In 1797, he and his two brothers m et 1 1 2,, ei United States, and together visited the interior. IP' a t it went to New Orleans in 1798. Waiting to go to ',Poo to join their mother, they arrived at the Havana e the a re for 13th of March. and were compelled to remain more than a year. A 0 0 In 1800 the three brothers went to London, . 311 ;otberi after went up the Mediterranean in search of their and but could not join her. They returned to England, ions took a house at Twickenham, whence they made ele in ., l tho into the interior of England and Scotland. In 1SO! i o Duke de Montpensier died.
