IJUL, ULL FuVrtuv wt.+ ziaa paaactt - etim-. tress in Ireland is subsiding, and the expenditure in railways is affording employment to the only portion of our population who, are not immersed in the general depression of the country. Stop the pro gress of every new railway; and what then ?—You take the bread out of the mouths of the wives and families of 250,000 able-bodied men engaged upon them: the profits from the shopkeepers who supply them with necessaries, and from the merchants who import for them,—employment from the miner, who gets coal and iron for them, andfrom a hundred different classes of manufacturers - and aritizans who are dependent upon them. These are not the causes of the present state of things. If you still maintain that they are so, you are bound to let us see the precise mode in which they operate. The manufacturing interest complain of restricted demand, and of unremunerative prices. The cotton manufacturer is only two-thirds employed ; is working that two-thirds at a sacrifice, and contem plates a further restriction of working. The export trade in goods has fallen off. India, China, most of the states in Europe, our colonies, and many of our most important neutral markets, are gradually diminishing the amount of their purchases from 14. How does free trade - account for this ? India and China have nothing to do with potato rots, Irish famine, or expenditure of English capital upon English railways. We have taken our ordinary supply of produce from these markets, and they ought to have taken their accustomed quantity of manufactured goods from us in return. From Europe, the United States, and our corn-growing colonies, we have imported vast quantities of grain. We have trebled the money productiveness of their last year's harvest. We have poured into these countries a flood of a commodity, which they have never before seen in anything like the same amount —English gold. Yet where are their purchases of manufactures in return ?: They are not to be traced. With an English piece of gold in his pocket, the Russian, the Polish, the Danish, or the American farmer has found that he can buy either cotton goods or cutlery, linens or woollens, without the necessity of trafficking with the British manufac- the Times a few days ago came turer. __., to settle a controversy, which As an additional fact, we ,prung up between the factors and retailers of capital which we have supplied to the foreigner as , anufactured cottons, woollens, &c., and the ma- the price of his grain, we have enabled him more ifacturers of those articles with respect to the i advantageously to operate in the markets of the umber of inches which ought to make up a yard's world as our competitors in various articles of manu, facture.

Dr. M`Neile's letter, published in our last.. It is painful to us to have to place ourselves in collision with any mem ber of the establishment. It is doubtless still more painful, however, to the Rev. Doctor to ap pear publicly in controversy with a brother clergy man; and this feeling, along with others, has pro bably deterred him from attempting the superfluous task of a rejoinder to Mr. Hull's last communi cation ; superfluous, we say, because Mr. Hull has wandered completely " out of the record ; " so much so, indeed, as to threaten an interminable hands o into t .elousemen, bare ..r, another ien '1 is taken off, the piece, in up only 35 inches to the many instances, being m ant.

This is e of the greatest reproaches thrown upon the ad of the British merchant in foreign markets. It is not worth while arguing a question like this i the London Times.

The errand boy - ' - ix manufacturer's or packer's ware per of any fent shop, would find r eating his own words ould be painful, however, ) confess himself in that the trouble of continuation of the correspondence. Mr. Hull reiterates his interpretation of Dr. M‘Neile's language, that, by the latter, repudiation of religion was charged against those who voted for candidates favourable to the establishment of Popery, and to the education of Papists in the principles of Popery. Take the question, then, as stated by Mr. Hull himself. What, then, is that gentleman's opinions of the doctrines of the Church of Rome—we say nothing of his having sworn that he believes them to be " damnable and idolatrous." He says in the letter before us—" I still disapprove as strongly as he does of what I consider the dangerous and unscriptural Doctrines, which that Church has taught its members to be lieve." Yet Mr. Hull finds no difficulty in author ising the State to pay for the teaching of those " dangerous and unscriptural Doctrines," either to the priests or by the priests to the young. He believes the Roman Catholic priesthood in Ireland to be "the most ignorant priesthood in Christen dom." Yet Maynooth, and the system, which pro vides that their alumni shall be ignorant of every kind of knOwledge which is not dangerous and use, or tt him abun ,on this subject )r our great conter wrong, we canna elung correct information will be encountered. But, really, a little less of assumption would, in the ity of cases, become our contemporary. We _knit the extent and variety of the talent engaged upon the Times—his vast source of information, and, upon . some points, his honesty and correct views ; but, as an inducement to the adoption of that modesty of demeanour, which is so becoming even in the wisest of us, our contemporary might do well to remember that " Aliquando dormitat behlus Hotnerus." " Neither true religion nor ehristianit_ Refer to the text ; and you will flu M'Neile never made a distinction between true religion and christianity, but between true religion and fatse" religion—Christianity and anti-Christi anity. Mr. Hull ! that Dr. THE Albion of yesterday contained an article upon dock affairs, the tone of which sufficiently betrays its author. The writer says :—" A rumour is affoat, which, we trust, is not correct, that the Dock Com mittee, true to the private influence to which that body is supposed to owe its present composition,. are getting up for Parliament a skeleton bill, in% which no plan nor provision for the speedy exten-- sion of dock warehouses is to be found;" and he goes on to talk about " gross dereliction of duty," "virtual betrayal of the interest of the dock estate and the trade of the port," "barefaced hypocritical places," &c.; all which imputations this anony mous writer flings at the Dock committee—a body composed of gentlemen of quite as high standing and honour as himself. That any such rumour as that which is here said to be "afloat" is, in reality so,. we cannot tell. If there is such a rumour,• however, it can have no foundation—in fact, it can only be based upon mere surmise ; for, in the first place, the Sub committee, to whom the reparation of the Parlia mentary business of the Trust is confided, have as yet made no report ; and; in the next place, any bill presented to parliament must, in accordance with the act of last year,. contain provisions for the extension of dock warehouses. The Albion's scribe urges that the merchants should " see that the present Dock Bill takes plenary permanent powers for building dock warehouses,according to the spirit of the act of last year, on any or all the dock quays of Liverpool; and for providing .pe cuniary means, independent of =further applications to parliament, for this purposeP We hope the merchants of Liverpool will do no such thing; for a project so absurd would be scouted by parlia ment, and not for a moment be-tolerated by either the dock bondholders or the public. The Idea of an application, with plans, specifications, &c., for warehouses round "all" the dock quays of Liver pool, involving, as their erection would, an- expen diture of four or five millions eterling, and abso lutely unfitted as some of those dock gum are, as ✓ sites for warehouses, would be moonstruck mad- If the gentleman who rides--this--warehouse hobby in the Albion will have a little patience, we dare say he will find the Dock Committee quite as much alive to the interests and-the con venience of the port as himself:. They will,. no doubt, in their next act, apply for ample powers for all present wants in this respect, reserving to themselves the privilege of further epplications•, to be made as their plans are from time to , time brought to maturity. EXAMINATION OF MASTERS AN 4t a 1— meeting of the Board of Examiners,. held on Tiles, the 7th instant, Captain Martin Massey Milward-, late master of the ship John Dugdale, of Liverpool, was examined, and found duly qualified.' , for a- First-class Master's certificate. We understand that Mr. J. Atkins has received instruc tions from the Earl of Derby to prepare, for the festivities on the occasion of the celebration of his grandson's ma jority, some beautiful fireworks on the same grand scale as those furnished by the same gentleman during Prince Albert's visit to this town. The Queen Dowager has been grae pleased to send to the Rev. Ralph Wilde the sum of .Zl6, in answer to the reverend gentleman'o application for as sistance in aid of the fund now raising for building the National Schools which Mr. Wilde is erecting, in a distant part of his parish. The Earl of Derby has also-kindly contributed the same amount to the reverend gentleman. Sermons in aid of the Church Education. Society for Ireland will be preached in several of the Liverpool churches on Sunday next, and the annual meeting, over which the Rev. Chancellor Raikes will preside, will be held on the following evening. The public breakfast, at which the Rev. Dr. M`Neile will take the chair, will take place, at the Adelphi Hotel, on Tuesday morning. THE YORKSHIRE PACKET SHIP.—The following is a list of cabin passengers by the Yorkshire, Captain D. G. Bailey, from New York :—Mr. Irving Wanwart, Mrs. Irving Wanwart, Masters Irving and Ames Wanwart„ Mr. W. W. Dallas, Mrs. W. W.

STEALING MONEY. - At the Police-court, yesterday, a man, named Charles Edwards, was charged with stealing 9s. 10d. in the house of Mr. Robinson, an innkeeper. Prisoner had gone in with a brother workman. Each of them called for twopenny-worthof drink, and each tendered a half-sovereign in payment. The prisoner took the change that belonged to his comrade, and made off with it, as well as his own change. He was committed for trial at the sessions. _ _ D . EATII OF A BoY FROM A BLOW-RRCIVED IN FIGHT ING.—An inquest was held yesterday, on view of the body of George O'Brien, aged ten and a half years. It ap peared that on Tuesday last he had been fighting with another boy, Thomas Jackson, aged nine years, (who was taken into custody,) in Greenland-street; that both went down, and that deceased, who was afterwards attended by a. surgeon from the Southern Dispensary, died from the effects of a blow on the abdomen, which had caused a rup ture of some of the small vessels of the intestines—by which inflamation was set up, and death ensued on Sun day night. The coroner took much pains in directing the jury in this case, which appeared to border upon man slaughter. The boy accused said that " deceased put a dirty bag in his mouth, and he did not like it." The jury returned a verdict to the effect that death was caused by misfortune.—The coroner, addressing the prisoner before his discharge, said he had a narrow escape from being tried for felony, and strongly recommended him not again to lift his hands against any one. WEST DERBY CHAPEL.—A writer in the Albion of yesterday, affects to be extremely witty in an article with this heading. It appears that on Sunday morning last, there was no clergyman present, to take the usual morn ing service at the chapel, and the congregation departed without knowing why no gentleman officiated. Injustice to the respected rector of West Derby, the Rev. Mr. Stewart, we feel it our_ duty to exculpate him from all blame in the matter, as the following statement will show. During the week before last Mr. Stewart, being in a bad state of health, left for Nottinghamshire, to meet his lady, who was herself far from convalescent. Previous to leaving he made arrangements with a gentleman to supply his place, for the two succeeding Sundays, who on. Sunday week duly officiated, but we believe that the gentleman in, question made arrangements for another reverend brother to supply his place last Sunday morning, and for some reason, which , we have not been able to learn, the latter person did not make his. appearance. We are informed however that Mr. Stewart's understand ing with his original substitute was, that no other pe but himself was to take the duty during his (Mr. Ste\ absence, and why the arrangeinent was departed from we have not heard. On Sunday afternoon the service took place as usual. Of course no one who is at all acquainted with the Rev. Mr. Stewart could for a moment imagine that the unfortunate circumstance arose from any forget• fulness on his part. He is a son of John Stewart, Esq., of this town. OPENING OF THE NEW DAY SCHOOLS, IN CON NEXION WITH THE CRESCENT CHAPEL.—On Sunday last these commodious schools, situated in Salisbury street, some distance behind the chapel, were opened. The schools were opened with sermons preached in the chapel, in the morning by the Rev. Mr. Birrell, of Pem broke Chapel ; and in the evening by the Rev. Mr. Kelly, minister of the Crescent Chapel, and a collection made after each sermon, towards defraying the expenses of the erection of the schools. Last evening a tea-party was held in the boys' school room, a large and very commo dious apartment. The room was quite filled with a highly respectable party, in connection with the chapel, including a great number of ladies. Several leading ministers and other gentlemen were on the platform, amongst whom we noticed the Rev. Dr. Halley, of Man chester ; the Rev. J. B. Brown, of London ; Rev. J. Towers, Birkenhead ; Rev. Mr. La Contem, Rev. Mr. Hewitt, Rochdale ; Rev, W. P. Appleford, Rev. J. Kirkus, John Cropper, Esq., T. Blackburn, Esq., J. Stitt, Esq., and A. King, sq., &c. &c. Tea being over, the Rev. J. Kelly, minister of the chapel, took the chair, when addresses were delivered by the Revs. Mr. La Contem, Rev. Mr. Towers, J. 0. Jones, Esq., Rev. Dr. Halley, Rev. J. Brown, and several other gentlemen, all of whom dwelt with much force on the great importance of the school which had been erected. The schools are for boys, girls, and infants ; will accommodate 600 scholars, and have cost upwards of £6OOO. The building has a, 'very beautiful appearance, d as secured by the farm€ in yiel 'y may ilt is unscriptural—learned only in the art of perverting and decoying the minds of their dupes to error — is to be fostered by the State and yet the State to be guiltless.

A GLANCE AT THE Tetary, ,' „~ sm,.xa~~l EXHIBITION OF THE LIVERPOOL ACADEMY Although the Exhibition does not open to the public until this morning, we have been permitted, by the kind- Mr. Herdman, of glancing over the Whom he has writing paragraph of},;. " d, and what r to you intended my avowed principle (or, as I think, wait of principle) that neither true religion, nor false religion, nor no religion, neither Christianity nor Anti-Cl shall be any hindrance in the way of adMission to all the' privileges and functions of full membership.' Now, here he says plainly, that by an assembly so constituted as to repudiate religion, he means an assembly to admission drance. So carelessly does he write ing to explain a passage in one of his own lett he says, but not truly, that I have wreste' even wi n profess- s; which from its con- ness of the se - detailed notices. are enabled to direct the attention of our readers to a few of the works by which we think they will interested. At the moment in which we write carcely completed, and the catalogues are the hanginz not yet ready. Our remarks, therefore, must be very ge neral ; and our readers and the artists contribr to the exhibition must consider them in the light of fir sions rather than as deliberate and fully consi In all exhibitions of paintings or other works of art attention is first to efforts o ,osing character, while modest merit, displayed in smalle ompass, has to wait its time, to be discovered in whateve s and great pic ;hives have, in Liverpon redly a greater pie-eminence 'afforded ihem than grea merit, if - unknown, can win. As an instance of this,--let the visitor of this exhibition cast his eye over the large picture, No. 1, in the ( door of room, No. 1. It , able painter of portraits, and a gentleman who might b supposed to be capable_of producing something beyond )gue, which is over the portrait. The subject is . 1 Pandoii ;" but the treatment of it is of the most bald and almost ludicrous description. A heavy woman—a ton of naked female flesh—is seated on a clOud, with a face, Merzury, who is lying on the same cloud, as it sig nalling to some one below has his feet turned up ! Little cherubs, with wreaths, &c., in their hands, hover above the pair, and complete the picture. There are, of course, some good bits of painting in the forty or fifty square feet of canvas : but as a picture, historical, allegorical, or ima ginative, it is most unworthy of the painter: In No. 140, a Portrait of David , Hodgson, by the same artist, we have a very different picture,—an excellent likeness,. full of character, and very clever. But Mr. Patten ought now to be convinced, by his many failures, of the wisdom of sticking to the line in which he possesses- undoubted ability, and of abstaining from attempts, for success in which he evidently does not possess the requisites. In this room are some other large subjects of superior merit, from amongst which will have to be selected the prize picture. Amongst these is No. 57, " The Burial of Charles 1.," by A. Johnston, whose picture in last year's exhibition was 'considered as scarcely second in 1 , the finishing and colouring, of which is wonderful, although scarcely coming up' to our views of a good painting, when viewed as a whole. The face of the widow, upon the body of whose' murdered husband the ordeal is being tried, is one of the most perfect pieces- of painting we ever saw, and will bear any examination. Most of the other figures and accessories are painted with similar finish; but, as we have already said, the picture wants harmonizing to render it a perfect whole. Perhaps it would be improved if the figures in the background were less prominent, or mellowed down. No. 148, Quitting the Manse,'.' is another large picture by G. Harvey, and possesses'-some merit, which however might have been displayed in- less compass. In fact the mbibition contains not a feve ambitious efforts to fill a large area of canvas, in which the artists would more have studied their advancement by confining the size of their works, and bestowing the necessary attention to detail, colouring, &c. We shall, next week, devote a column - to a more parti cular notice of the exhibition ; and, probably, may take first a glance at - the pictures produced by our Liverpool artists, of which we observe several. At present we can only find space to enumerate a few of the names of the exhibitors ; amongst whom are—A. Hunt, Miss Jane Naswyth, A, W. Hunt, P. Westcott, W. -G. Herdman (the secretary), J. B. Pyne, R. C. Leslie, D. Roberts, R.A. ; A. Carbould, E. H. Carbould (whose painting, 472 — "the Departure of St. Paul from the Shores of Great Britain"—oaght to , attract the attention of. every lover of high art), F Pickering, W. Linton ' W. Strayer, C. Fielding, Charliffe Nasmyth, Augustus Egg,' H. J. Bod dington, E. V. Kippingale, T. Clater, A. Cooper, R.A. ; F. R. Lee, R.A. ;: W. Huggins, E. M. Ward, A.R.A. (who has contributed a clever • picture, No. 272—" the South Sea Bubble ; a scene in Change-alley, in 1720"), G. E. Herring, J; F. Herring, jun., F. H. Hinshaw, W. Havell, W. L. Windus, R. Ausdell, &c. Some of the above have contributed largely ; and, althougb.-weobserve a few paintings, which may fairly be set downas very bad, the average is much above mediocrity. MORE EXTENSIVE • FAILURES (Rom yesterday's Times.) Much excitement was occasioned this morning by the announcement of-the failure of Gower, Nephews, and Co. The liabilities on bills alone are alleged to amount to £600,000, and it is considered probable that -the total commitments ofthe firm. will be found to reach XBOO,OOO. For two years past the position of the house has been from time to time a- subject- of inquiry, and this in: so many quarters as to lead irresistibly to the conclusion that no thing but the circumstance of one of the partners being a Bank Director could have kept it in a degree of credit up to this period sufficient to render possible the wide and crushing consequences which must now be sustained. The standing of; Mr. A.. L. Gower in the Bank direction was such as to bring him very nearly in rotation for the office of Deputy-Governor, and he was one of those passed over, or by whom the office was declined, on the recent occasion of the vacancy caused by the failure of Mr. Robinson. In addition to the post of Bank Director, we believe he also held that of Governor of the Mines Royal Copper Company. The immediate causes of the present suspension are said to have consisted in the failure of Gemmell and Co., of Glasgow, and of some of the other houses which have re cently been reported ; but it is apprehended that the real difficulties of the firm will, be found of much more-distant date, and that its liquidation will expose a long existing state of unsoundness.. Railway speculations—the source whence the public are destined to find the solution to a deplorable succession of misfortunes yet to come—have operated, it is expected,, in this instance to no small ex tent ; and although in some transactions, such as those connected with .the Dutch Rhenish, and Canadian Com panies, which do not occupy a very favourable place in the recollection of the community, the partners in the firm are understood to have made large profits by the, peculiar mode which was, adopted of introducing the shares upon the market, there is every reason to believe that on the whole the losses sustained by them have been extensive. Consequent upon the failure of Gower, Nephews, we have that of Alison, Cumberlege, and Co., a smaller firm, in the South American trade, with which they were con nected. About a month back Mr. Alison sailed .for Val paraiso, and as Mr. Cumberlege is already resident there, the junior partner, a Mr. Gower, is the only representa tive of the house now in London. The lia.bllitip_s in this case have not. been stated. , THEFT.—At the Police-court, yesterday,. a woman, named Margaret Thompson, was committed for trial at the sessions for stealing a pair of boots from .a shop in Cheapside. THEFT FROM A CHURCH.—Yesterday, at the Police court, a, youth named John Broom was charged with stealing two religious hooks from a pew in Trinity church. He was seen to take them, and was given into custody. It appeared that he had on a former occasion been imprisoned. for stealing books from St. Martin's church. The case being clear, he was committed for trial at the sessions. RAILWAY FILAITD.—On Saturday, a young man named Rycn, was charged before Mr. Rushton, with having com mitted a fraud upon the London and Northwestern Rail wr.y Company, by representing that he • had paid his fare from. Birmingham, when he had not The case was made. good ; and as the prisoner had no goods upon which distraint could be made, he was committed to gaol. ASSAULT ON A LADY.—On Saturday ) at the police court, William Dowling, a watchmaker, was fined f. 5 and costs, for an unprovoked assault upon iirs. Jerrold ) mo ther of Mr. Douglas _Jerrold, and mother-in-law of Mr. W. J. Hammon - a, the comedian. Mr. Hammond was returning home from the theatre yesterday evening week, when the assault took place in Commutation-row. The fine not being paid the defendant was taken into custody. Ac ciVENT TO THE N AuTiL VS STEAM SHIP.— The Nautilus, auxiliary screw steamer, Captain Brown, which sailed from Alexandria, on the 24th ult., for this port, returned on the following evening, the cargo, consisting of 250 bales of cotton, and 650 quarters of wheat, having taken fire. The damage is considerable, the after part of the ship, including the cabin, being completely gutted, and it will require at least a month to repair the vessel, and refit her for sea. The origin of the fire, which broke out full 50 feet from the engine-room, is unknown. Her masts, yards, bulwarks, decks, and rigging are nearly de stroyed. _ _ PROSTITUTE ROBBERlES.—Yesterday, at the Police court, Charlotte Gregory was charged by Frank Rooney with robbing him of eleven sovereigns in a house of ill fame, where he had been. for some hours. His clothes, which he placed for safety. under his head, had been ab stracted, but though the prisoner was detained, there was no proof that she was the actual thief, and she was conse quently discharged. Another prisoner was charged in, a. similar way with stealing a watch. Mr. Rushton said it was impossible for the magistrates to do anything, at the cost of the borough, for foolish men who went into. such places with valuable property about them, and this pri soner was also discharged. THE HARVEST.—The weather, since our last publica tion, has been very favourable for the conclusion of the Harvest operations in this quarter. We regret to say that the late Potatoes in this district are daily becoming more affected by the disease, but in other quarters the crop is fair. The turnips in Lancashire and Cheshire are generally fine, being fed by the late rains. In the South of England this crop and others have suffered much from ' the drought, which has parched up some of the grasses. A turnip was grown by Mr. H. Littledale, at Liscard, last week, measuring thirty-three inches in circumference. Taking the whole country at large the crops may be said to be a full average, especially of grain. The after-grasses here are generally most promising. CHARGE OF STEALIIG MONEY.—At the police-court, on Saturday, an Irishman, named Jim Gilligan, charged one of his own countrymen, Jack Shawn, with stealing from him six sovereigns. It appeared that the complainant and prisoner slept in the same bed, but before turning in the former secured, as he thought, his money, by sewing it up in the tail of his shirt, and thus keeping it near his skin. In the night he missed his cash, and saw the prisoner standing on the floor. The tail was cut from the com plainant's shirt, and the 'prisoner made off, the owner running after him, nearly naked, in the street and had him secured by a policeman who was at hand. None of the money was, however, found. The details, as give n b y t h e complainant in the Irish vernacular, were highly amusing. The prisoner was remanded until yesterday, when no fur- ther evidenee being procured, he was, of necessity, dbl. , charged. - !iiseixowaxl7& THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN BIBLE SOCIETY Yesterday evening, a pu 3sociation, in aid of this meeting of the Lime-si Dciety, was .00m of St. Sil ance w Rev. ,ectable Mr - .

Mr. CARTER, Chaplain of the Borough Gaol moved, after an appropriate address, a resolutior effect that the general aspect of affairs, the state country, the increased efforts of popery, the progre education, and the facilities afforded for the circulation of the sacred volume, called loudly upon all the friends'of the society for individual and collective exertion. Mr. J. T. BOURN2 (of the parent society, and latterly from South Africa) seconded the resolution. He charac terised the Liverpool Bible Society as the stablest, the firmest, and the most energetic of any in the kingdom. He had long been absent from them in a southern clime to the d. this ame determination to apply all the .esources of his mit to promote the advancement of the society. God had, during the past year, poured his blessings most abundantly upon them. The society had received in the gross, last year, £ll7,ooo—the largest fund yet entrusted to them by the Christian public. The issue of Bibles the year before last had been a million and a half, and last year 1,400,000. Thus, within these two years, more than two millions of persons had been taught the means of being rescued from Satan to God, and made heirs of eternal salvation. Many high and honourable men, including many of the bishops, had joined and aided them ; and he was delighted to hear Sir R.

Last week, we had the charming and famous nightingale, with Lumley's operatic torps, in their most admired pieces. Yesterday evening, we had the opportunity of comparing with them the Covent Garden company,—of comparing Grisi with the new rival to her throne ; of assuring ourselves of the superiority of Mario over the new tenor, Gardoni, of lis tening to the wonderful tones of Alboni, and hearing Cor bari, Thmburini, and Signor Rovere, one of the best buffos of his day. The additional attraction of an instru mentalist of no ordinary talent in the person of Mr. Lindsay Slopyr was announced, but he did not appear. A more splendid audience we never saw met to - w - elcome any performers than those assembled in the Collegiate Institution on this occasion. Every part of the institution was crowded—almost inconveniently so, —a proof at once of the numerical strength of the society and the taste of its members. Nor were they fated to be disappointed of their anticipations. The overture from " Anacreon," by Cherubini, was finely played ; after which, a recititive and quartette, from Bianca and Faliero," announced for the first piece of part 2nd, was swag by Mille. Alboni, Grisi, Mario, and Tamburini, and very finely sung. An NIONEY MARKI I this mornin ;TTING AT THE ST. LEGER SATURDAY NIGHT Planet -- 15 -- 15 -- 15 -- 15 Van Tromp.

On the contrary, there is a greater number of railway directors, engineers, and contractors, of barristers, of merchants, of retail trades m e n , of political writers and lecturers, of naval and military officers. A letter has been received in Paris announcing that the' Due tie Nemours had narrowly escaped being killed in shooting party, which took place on. Wednesday, in the forest of- Compiegne. The Duke received several shots in the head, and was, according to the-statement, stunned, but the accident was not attended with any fatal conse quences. The intelligence conveyed in the letter was not credited in Paris. AUSTRALIAN WHEAT.—The vessel-Kilmann, arrived in the docks from Port Philip. has brought, with a general cargo of Australian productions, 1,031 bags of wheat ; and the vessel Malcolm, arrived from Adelaide, has brought 6,090 bags of the same description of grain, the produce of Australia. These arrivals of wheat from Australia are interestin g items among the importatio ns o f gra i n f ro m distant parts of the world. A TIMELY HlNT.—Last week our - town-crier received a letter from London, enclosing a shilling, and ordering him to make the following announcement :—" By direct authority.—The bakers are forthwith to lower their bread to the standard of wheat in Mark-lane. God save the Queen.—London, Sept., 1847." The crier performed his duty, and, singularly enough, the bakers reduced the price of bread, which they could very well afford to do, on the very same day, observing that they were glad Mr. Mark Lane- had orders from the Queen to make the re• ducti on .—Huntingdon paper. A NEW EFFECT OF THE MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH:" The various wires of telegraph beginning to intersect so many sections of our country are said to have a decided effect upon, electricity. That eminent scientific man, Pro' fessor Olmstead, of Yale College, states, that as the storm comes up, and especially when over the wires, say fifty or a hundred miles distant, the lightning is attracted by the wires ; which can be proved by any one remaining in the telegraph office for half an hour. About the time the! storm is coming up, the wires are continually filled wit electricity: It is my opinion, he says, that we shall never have very heavy thunder showers, or hear of lightning striking, so long as we have telegraph wires spread ov er the earth.—American Paper.

ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE.—" The Liverpool Merchant, i of 1750," a melodrama of much local interest, adapted for the stage by. Mr. E. Stirling, from a tale written by the late Dr. Maginn, was very successfully produced a this theatre last week.

It is marvellous to hear some persons ascribe its state to the conduct of man rather than the inscrutable designs of Providence. To the latter lam disposed to ascribe it. Without entering into other questions, there is no doubt that a great failure of the food of man has been inflicted on that country by the will of the Almighty.—(Hear, hear.) It is the duty of every individual proprietor in that country—for the relations they bear to the people are somewhat different to what is found here even in the re lations of such large proprietors as the ford of Hallam shire—to alleviate the distress as much as possible. But they cannot remove it altogether, because they do not pos sess the means to fill up that deep cavity which has been made. But if it be the duty of individuals to do as much as they can for the inhabitants of their individual estates, let me suggest to you whether. I, the owner of so many hundreds or thousands of acres in the county of Wicklow, am bound by this duty—is it not your duty, as English men, to regard the whole of Ireland as the estate of England ? Whether Ireland has not a right to look to. England as her landlord. If particular districts have a claim upon their landlord, whether Ireland at large has not a right to look to England as her landlord ? (Cheers.) I say this, because one little word slipped from my learned friend,---he spoke of Ireland being aburden upon the people of England. Ido not find much fault with the expression, nor with the tone in which he used it. But it is often used on this side St. George's Channel in a tone which I deeply regret, because it has a tendency to blind men's eyes and blunt their feelings as to the extent of their duties toward that country. You have advanced some nine millions to Ireland during the last year, of which four millions have been given and the rest lent. Now, I read the newspapers sometimes, and I see a deal of credit taken for generosity, not for the four millions given, but for the four or five millions lent. I must observe, gentlemen, that generosity is not the virtue usually ascribed to .a money-lender. The money-lender expects his money back with interest, and therefore has no great claim to the credit of generosity on account of the loan. But, gentlemen, I beg to start this question, whether the conduct of England towards Ireland has not made her a large debtor to Ireland ? How many acts of parliament have been passed to discourage the agriculture, and destroy the manufactures of that country ? Agriculture has been discouraged, diminishing the value of property, and manufactures have been put down to appease the jealousy of England. To Ireland England owes a large debt, not only a moral debt, but a pecuniary debt. The four millions given are nothing like the amount of the debt, if properly estimated, as the result of your legislations—Recent Speech at Sheyield, Billingsg, , Sept. 9, 1847.
