But it appears that the " fiery cross" has gone forth among the destructive clans—from the wretched kerns and that cower beneath the sacerdotal garments gallowglass , of the LION of Sr. JARLATH, to the stark moss-troopers that follow the bidding of the KNIGHT of NETHERBY and the broad-brimmed nondescripts that obey the lash, of BULLY BRIGHT and Canny COBDEN—announcing war even to the tomahawk and scalping-knife upon the first assembling of Parliament ; and that it is the intention of "the leaders" to tramp, savage-like, on the corse of the illustrious victor of Waterloo, in order to sweep on to their anticipated vengeance. Be it so. Full soon they will find that Revenge, at first tho Igh sweet, bitter ere long Back on its Let them, if they dare, attempt to interrupt the mourning solemnities of the nation ! Something must be done to put down Betting-offices— something must be done to put an end to the swindling of Emigrants by mock companies and diddling schemes. So cries every one ; but how ? That is the rub. The HOME SECRETARY has intimated his intention to try and grapple with the betting-office sharpers, and T have no doubt that, by the application of his ingenious mind and bject, he will effect his purpose, if any one can. It is really dreadful the extent to which the spirit of gambling, or horse-racing, has been carried of late, fostered by these roguish betting-shopkeepers. There is hardly a servant man or woman here who has not had something to do with them, or some hankering after them. The case of a butler, indicted a few days ago at Middlesex, for robbing his master of plate to the amount of £2OO, is merely a solitary illustration of the condition of our domestic relations. This old and confidential servant admitted that he was some times worth £l,OOO, and sometimes not worth a Penny. So one day, having a " debt of honour" to pay, he made free with his master's plate-chest. Of course he only meant to " borrow" until such times as a lucky race would again put him in funds ; but what a state of society this example of a prevalent vice exposes I In fact, no house is safe, and no servant, however old and long trusted, is to be depended on so long as these en ticing betting shops are permitted to exist. As to the preying that is going on upon intending emigrants, I fear there are no means of effectually stopping it. Publicity given to each imposition, as it is brought to light, is all Some people are so credulous that to the end of the chapter ; and, if 'RIPE and MONTAGUE, they are that can be done they will be taken in they es .pe Hes: fall into the sure to itches of some other of the nume who live by their wits, and suck the blood of the foolish, the unthinking, and the gullible. Rumours of invasion by the great Gallic Cock are again rife, and daily fright us from our propriety. Now that the invincible WELLINGTON is no longer guardian of the Cinque Ports, we are more accessible to alarm, and it t he confessed that the march of events in France is However, with so experienced a mus far from assurinz oldier as Lord HARDINGE at the head of our armies, we sleep in tranquillity, despite all the crowing of the Id cock, and the flapping of the wings of the would- be imperial eagle. The " new commercial policy" is going a-head. Free trade is driving hard and fast towards its ultimate end. But what is that policy, and what is that ultimate end ? The Times has at length condescended to tell us—the organ of the Manchester school has at length let the cat out of the bag. It was indeed once avowed, by an indis creet Free-trader, that " capital owed no allegiance to the so il," but the doctrine was repudiated, or at least covered t out of sight. Now, however, we have it in its full sense, with braz over and ker declare eu assurance and astounding impudence. by the thundering oracle of the :y-grubbers of England.

In our SHARE-MARKET this week we have had no particular feature, dulness and inactivity having been the characteristics.

PRODUCE.—There has been a good business done in SUGAR throughout the week, and better prices have been realised than those previously current. RICE has also been in active demand, at improved rates, owing to the unfavourable reports from America. In most other articles there is no actual change to notice; but an improved feeling generally prevails. TO -DAY, inclusive of Satur day's sales, the business in SUGAR comprises 40 hilds. grainy Barbadoes, at 31s. 6d. to 405,; 3,400 bags Bengal, at 30s. to 31s. for dry brown, and 365. 6d. to 41s. for white Benares ; 50 hhds. Porto Rico and Cuba Muscovado at 31s. 6d. to 355. 6d.; and a cargo of brown Bahia, afloat, deliverable at a near port, at 16s. 6d. per cwt. There is nothing to notice in MOLASSES, Rum, or COFFEE. The TEA market is inactive; of the 3,000 packages advertised for Thursday next, one-half consists of Teas " with all faults." By auction, 1,300 pockets Bengal RICE brought Ils. 3d., and by private sale, 5,000 bags Arracan have changed hands, at 9s. 3d. with 2,500 bags to arrive, at 9s. per cwt. We have also to report 1,000 bags SAGO FLOUR, at 14s. 6d. from the quay, and at ]4s. 9d. per cwt. from store, 10 chests B Mirzapore LAC DYE at ls. ltd. per lb., 30 tons Ceara FUSTIC at £4 12s. 6d. to £5 55., and a small lot of Jamaica LOGWOOD at £4 per ton. COTTON.—We had a slow business in this mar ket during the week, the sales up to Thursday evening being 40,430 bales at prices slightly in favour of the buyer for other than current Ameri can. Speculators took 8,510 bales, exporters, 3,180, leaving for the trade 28,740. A general impression prevailed that prices of American were not likely to be lower for the coming crop ; and this, coupled with the great increase of mills which are being erected in the manufacturing districts, imparted much firmness to speculators. TO -DAY, the advices brought by the Halifax Mail steamer America, conveying unfavourable reports of the position and prospects of the new crop, gave a tone of increased confidence to holders, and led to a larger business being done. The sales were 12,000 bales, of which 5,000 were on specula tion; and prices may be quoted from 1-16 to higher than on Friday. The following is the offi cial statement of the crop in America from Ist Sept. 1851, to Ist Sept. 1852) 1851-52 1850 51 1849-50 To Great Receipts. Clearance. Britain.

The feeling, however, for all except fine old foreign Whe It has been in favour of the buyer; a change in the wind to the westward having brought in several large imports from the United States. The arrivals, foreign and coastwise, the latter very trifling, for two days,—Friday and Saturday last— comprised 2,438 quarters Wheat; 9 quarters Malt; 1,271 quarters Oats ; 2,090 quarters Beans ; 1,668 quarters Indian Corn ; 776 loads Oatmeal, and 2,324 barrels Flour. The exports are small. IRON.—We quote the following remarks from the Birmingham Gazette of yesterday :—" Much excitement has prevailed in this trade throughout the last week, and it is with great difficulty that business can be transacted. Most of the large makers have yet orders on hand, taken at the low prices, that will consume a large portion of the en- suing quarter to work off; and manufacturers in general are so pressed by their customers at the 20s. advance already declared, and even at higher figures, that they feel much hesitation at making sales. It is stated that circulars have been sent out by some houses quoting from 30s. to 40s. advance upon their last quarter's sales ; while the more moderate are refusing to accept orders, unless subject to future alterations. From London, Liverpool, and all the places of export, report speaks of extraordinary activity, and doubtless there exists, both here and in all other iron districts, still a decided upward tendency ; but we are not aware that any formal declaration of more than 20s. on the nominal price of iron will be proposed at the preliminary meeting to be held at Wolverhampton on Thursday next. The result of its deliberations is looked forward to with some anxiety. INIMIMMIMII7E.II3,M=MINMILMMMIN. THE LATE GREAT CATTLE SALES BY THE MESSRS. Lucas.—lt will have been observed in our advertising columns during the past month, that this eminent firm have had in their hands some most extensive sales. One at the conclusion of the Lytham Agricultural Show was attended by a larger number of buyers than had been at any prior meeting of the society. The stock, the horses particularly, were first-class, well-bred, young and pow erful, and the prices realized were, we are glad to say, such as to prove remunerative to the breeders. Another important sale, following the Manchester and Liverpool Agricultural Society's Show, was held in the Repository, 91, Charlotte-street, on Friday, when again there was a large attendance of buyers. The prices realized were high, but the stock was excellent. Some South-down rams, bred by Mr. Llewellyn Lloyd (wh ic h t oo k t h e f i rst pr i ze o n Thursday), sold as high as 29 gui neas eac h . Th e more inferior realized 5 guineas each. Other important sales will, we understand, soon take place. This court commenced its sittings yesterday. His Honour, Joseph Pollock, Esq., who has been in Ireland on a visit, and who was expected to preside, it was an nounced was detained in consequence of the illness of Mrs. Pollock, consequently suitors and others were kept waiting for about an hour, when J. W. Harden, Esq., the judge of the Cheshire County Court arrived, and took his seat shortly after eleven o'clock. Mr. Statham, clerk of the court, announced that in consequence of the illness of his wife, Mr. Pollock was unable to attend, and the learned judge requested that the insolvency cases fixed for that day might be postponed until the first vacant day, which would be the 18th Octo ber. In all these cases protection would be renewed, and consequently the cases of fraud summohses and inter pleaders would be proceeded with. His HONOUR then proceeded to give judgment in the following cases on fraud summonses, and ordered com mitments as undermentioned. John Davies, attorney, Clarendon-rooms, 20 days, but not to be taken out for 10 days. John Harrison, sto.ieinason, Rupert-street, Everton, for 20 days. ABI-road, John He!shy, watch-manufacturer, 42, 'Springfield street,.for2o days, unless•2s. 6d. per week be paid. t-street, Patrick Weeks, tinplate-worker, 52, Regen similar judgment. John Homes, labourer, 28, Cranmer-street, Vauxhall road, 15 days. Edward Wilford, attorney, 10, Lime-street, for 15 days, if not paid in one week. Norman M'Leod, shipbroker, Leicester-street, for 20 days. Edward Bluck, attorney, Tithebarn-street, for 30 days Jas. Dobson, carpet cleaner, Breck -road, Everton, sum moned by Mrs. Anne Bean for £5 17s. 4d. debt and costs. The defendant said the amount was for advertising. He had commenced business in Liverpool nine years ago, and had struggled hard during the whole of that time to pay every one 20s. in the pound, and to keep out of the insol vent court; but he was now so reduced that it was time for him to go to Australia or somewhere else. for he found it impossible to get on in Liverpool. After some discus sion, the learned Judge ordered a warrant to issue for fifteen days, unless 10s. per month was naid. John Bullock, grocer, Bell Vue, Wavertree-road, 15 days. Patrick Balfe, labourer, 25, Tdris-street, Athol-street, for 15 days. Henry Clapham, agent, 1, Dalton-street, West Derby street, for 30 days, unless .£5 be paid on the Ist Novem ber, and £1 per month after. George Codrington Nicholls, accountant, Pleasant street, 15 days. William White, shipbroker, 47, Prince Edwin-street, 30 days, unless 303. per month be paid. James Morris, clerk, 77, Prescot-street, 15 days. John Stoveld, traveller and shopman, Lime-street, 20 days. Wm. llarkey Bridge,' gardener, Breck-road, Everton, 20 days. Lucy Campbell, 21, Mount-pleasant, 15 days. Joseph Vickers, clerk, 42, Copperas-hill, 20 dav9. Win. Russell, book-keeper, Oldhall-street, 15 days. John Steward, porter, 10 Court, Naylor-street, 15 days. Richard Kaye, butcher, 170, Great Howard-street, 20 days, if costs and arrears be not paid at once, and £1 per month. George Richardson, turner and carver, 4, Upper New ington, 15 days. John Latham Lupton, coach-builder, 1, Church- street South, Park-road, 15 days. Wm. Robinson, watchmaker, 7, Great Orford-street, 15 days, INTERPLEADERS In this case William 'Rice was the claimant of goods seized by the high bailiff, under judgment of the court, in an action in which Mainwaring and Woods were plaintiffs, and Elizabeth Featherstone was defendant. Mr. Godfrey appeared for the claimant, and Mr. Wheeler for the judg ment creditor. It appeared that the officers had seized a chest of drawers, two clocks, a fender, and looking glass. The claim set up was, that all the goods belonged to Rice, and with the exception of one of the clocks, had been his for many years. One of the clocks he purchased from Mrs. Featherstone, his mother-in-law, about eighteen months ago for £3 ; but the account given by the witness of the transaction varied so much, that his Honour ordered judgment for the claimant for all the articles except the clock in question, and that he should pay the balance of the debt and costs above what the clock fetched, in con sequence of setting up a frivolous and unfounded claim for the clock. In the next case the claimant was Mr. J. H. Joyce, raising out of goods seized under an execution against Andrew J. Harrison, v. Quigley. Mr. Simon appeared for the claimant, and Mr. Bre therton was for the judgment creditors. Mr. Simon stated that the claimant was an agent, accountant, and auctioneer in Liverpool. On the 12th August Quigley called upon his client and offered a quantity of goods for sale. The goods were examined and £l2 offered, but this was said not to be enough, and Quigley left. How ever, the same afternoon the goods were sent to the rooms of Joyce, but there not being the full quantity, only £8 was paid. On the following day the officers of that court went to the premises of Joyce, broke into a room, and carried off, not only the goods he had purchased from Quigley, but also others, which there was no pre tence for saying had ever belonged to Quigley. On the notice of claim being put in, Mr. Bretherton objected to its sufficiency, on the ground that it did not set forth the title of the claimant to the property. Mr. Simon applied to amend the claim. The Judge said he could not do that, unless with the consent of Mr. Bretherton. _ _ . Mr. Bretherton said he could not give his 'consent. This was the third interpleader with respect to these goods, and, in trying them, and the cost of looking after them, £7O had already been expended. Mr. Simon said it was a very hard case, so far as his client was concerned, for he was an innocent party in thematter. Mr. Bretherton said he was quite prepared to prove that Joyce knew all about it. Some discussion then took place as to the costs, on which his HONOUR said he had no jurisdiction to decide the case ; the effect of which will he that the goods would be sold, and applied to the payment of the debt and costs, but the extra costs would be added to the original debt. Another case, arising out of goods belonging to the same defendant, claimed by Thomas Abbey, was decided in favour of the judgment creditor, and costs allowed. INQUESTS, YESTERDAY. ♦ Two inquests were held yesterday before P. F. Curry, Esq., on the bodies of infants who had been overlain, one named Ann Murphy, and the other named Marry Ann Trainer. Verdicts accordingly. On Saturday an inquest was held on Mary Lewis, aged 74, who lived in 4 Court, Great Howard-street. The de ceased, it appeared,went on Tuesday to visit her daughter in Bewley-street, Kirkdale. On her returning home the same evening, she was knocked down by a whitechapel coming from the trotting match, and received a severe concussion of the brain, of which she died on Friday evening in the Northern Hospital. Vercict, accidental death. On George Hoskin, who lived at 65, Eldon-place. On Tuesday, the deceased was assisting his son at his saw mill, when he was accidentally struck by a piece of wood which knocked him down, and he received an injury of the spine, from the effects of which he died in the Northern Hospital on Thursday. Verdict accordingly. On the body of a child, about two months old, which was found on some vacant ground between Athol-street and Boundary-street. The result of a post mortem ex amination showed, that the cause of death was congestion of the brain, but whether arising from natural causes or otherwise, the surgeon was unable to determine, Verdict accordingly, off the day of trial of t anything, how udge him by their Ivor hol tion.

But the story is too absurd to )btain much credence, and it bears about it too much the "lie circumstantial" to go down with the may laugh to scorn such VISIT OF MR. FORBES MACKENZIE, M.P., TO HIS CONSTITUENTS. We learn that it is the intention of Mr. FORBES MACKENZIE to visit his constituents on Monday next, and that he and his colleague, Mr. CHARLES TURNER, will be in attendance at the Town-Hall each day during the week, from Eleven o'clock a.m., for the purpose of receiving deputations from the several commercial bodies, and of meeting those parties who may wish to wait upon them on public business. This, it will be remembered, used to be the practice of our members in the good old mes, and down to that in which we were represented by our present members most considerate in SUDDEN DEATH OF A LIVERPOOL CLERGYMAN, We regret to have to announce the sudden death of a young clergyman of Liverpool, the Rev. J. Saunas BUSHBY, under peculiarly distressing circumstances. The deceased, after obtainining orders, was for some titne curate of Chi'dwell, where he was beloved by all who knew him for his kindliness of disposition and manners, and his sincere piety. He has more recently been actively superintending the erection of a new church at Fairfield, to be dedicated to St. John the Divine, and of which he was to have the incumbency. On Thursday he visited Liverpool for the purpose of purchasing books for a library, which he was fitting up for the use of his congre gation, and returned in the afternoon, by the omnibus, con siderably fatigued. On Friday, he again came to town, and being seized with a swimming in the head, took a cab and drove home, labouring when he arrived there, under an attack of paralysis. Notwithstanding all the exertions of his medical attendants, be sunk rapidly, and expired on Saturday evening. The lamented deceased had been most anxious for the progress of the building which he was superintending, and which, we understand, was to have been consecrated on Tuesday next. In addition to the library; of which we have spoken, he was providing for his congregation a choir at his own expense, and intended, we are informed, to have a daily service. To the excite ment and anxiety experienced by him in the prosecution of these good works, the medical men who attended him attribute the attack which brought to a sudden close his valuable life. Mr. BUSHEY belonged to the family well known as eminent colonial brokers in this town. His age was 27, and we regret tostate that he has left a widow and two children. Amongst his numerous friends none will regret him more than the workmen engaged in the building of his church, to whom he had endeared himself by his affable manners and kind treatment of them. COUNTY COURT, .-YESTERDAY the convenience of the inhabitants of the district, and we can have no doubt that Mr. Edgar will meet with the success which he well merits, for having brought, as it were, to their own doors, the means of witnessing the performance of the legitimate drama. The great distance of Toxteth Park from the other theatres in the town has hitherto rendered it very inconvenient and expensive for those residing in the district to attend dramatic perfor mances, if indeed it has not amounted, in effect, to a practical prohibition. This inconvenience is now removed by the opening of the new theatre, and we do not see why Mr. Edgar should not be equally successful with the managers of the different well-conducted theatres in the metropolitan boroughs, the population of the district in which the Park is situate being numerically large, as well as intelligent and respectable. With regard to the interior arrangements of the new theatre, we are glad to be able to speak in terms of high commendation. The house is large, and well adapted for its intended purpose. It is calculated to accommodate an audience of upwards of 2000. The circle around the boxes and gallery has a very commanding appearance from its extensive dimensions, thus forming an exceedingly large and well arranged pit, which will accommodate upwards of 800 persons. If any fault can be found with the general appearance of the theatre, it is that the ceiling has not been carried sufficiently high, which somewhat mars the effect of the proscenium and scenery ; but we are glad to learn that the arrangements of the building are such that this defect can easily be removed. The boxes are very commodious—perhaps more spacious than in any of the other Liverpool theatres. The "gods" have also been amply provided for. We forbear at present to speak of the decorations, as they are evidently incomplete, but it is the intention of the enterprising lessee to complete this department on a scale of considerable magnificence, and his original wish was not to have opened the theatre until about 0, fortnight hence, but he was desirous of secu ring the services of Mr. Charles Pitt, the eminent trage dian, for the opening night, and as that gentleman's engagements would' have prevented him appearing later than next week, it was determined to inaugurate the opening last evening. The piece selected for the opening was the tragedy of " Othello." Long before the time appointed for the commencement of the performances, the doors of the theatre were besieged by a large number of persons desi rous of gaining admission. The doors having been opened, the house soon began to fill. The pit and gallery were densely crowded,' and there was a tolerable sprinkling in the boxes. On the first rising of the curtain,- the- Na tional Anthem was sung by the entire strength of the company, after which the performances proceeded, but as they did not tern:inate until a late hour; we are unable this week to give a lengthened notice. We may, however, remark that the company, taken as a whole, is one of the most efficient which we have for some time seen in a Liverpool theatre. Mr. Pitt's Othello is too well known to require any eulo glum here. Suffice it to say, that during its performance he was enthusiastically and deservedly cheered. Mr. Fer- ris's lago was also a judicious and, it may be added, a powerful piece of acting. The same favourable notice applies to the I,2csdernona of Miss Waldron, and the Ameiza of mrs. Walton. From the earnest given last night, we augur for Mr. Edgar a prosperous career in his new undertaking, and he has our best wishes for his success. As will be seen from the advertisement, the tragedy of " Hamlet" will he performed this evening, Mr. Pitt sustaining the character of the Prince. A MODERN ROMULUS. (From the Delhi Gazette.) The following almost incredible narrative may be relied on. We should not think of offering so strange a story to our readers, were we not in possession of warrantable evidence as to its truth : Wolves are numerous in certain parts of Oudb, and carry off many children annually. Still few or no at tempts are made by the natives to destroy them. This is partly because the wolf is held in superstitious veneration by most classes of Hindoos, and partly for a reason which would seem incredible, if the crime of murdering children for the sake of their ornaments were not common throughout India. When a wolf carries off a child, he generally devours it at the mouth of his den, rejecting any ornaments of gold or silver which the victim may have worn. These are afterwards found and sold by the lower orders of natives, who derive a considerable profit from this hideous traffic. Men thus enter into a kind of contract with the wolves, for their mutual advantage. The wolf stipulates for life, and unmolested liberty to steal children and eat them. The ram bargains for the ornaments of the children, and as the wolf is insensible to their value, the contract is fulfilled without any sacri fice on either side ; and, generally speaking, it is faith fully performed by both man and wolf. But, strange to say, there are occasions, and not unfrequent ones, when the wolf breaks the contract by deviating into humanity. The wolves of Oudh have risen, as it were, in a pack. to vindicate the character of their race. The Lupa that suckled Romulus and Remus was, after all, a genuine she-wolf, deeply imbued with the milk of human kind ness. About three years ago, a trooper in the Oudh service, while out on duty not far from Sultanpoor, saw a large she-wolf leave her den, followed by three whelps and a boy. The boy was on all fours, and seemed to be on the best possible terms with the old dam and the three whelps, and the mother seemed to guard all four with equal care. The trooper watched them unperceived, until they had slaked their thirst and were returning to their den. The trooper then urged on his,horse, hoping to cut off the boy's retreat, but the little fellow ran on all fours as fast as his companions, and as the ground was broken, the trooper's horse could not overtake them be fore they reached the den. A number of people were im mediately assembled with pick-axes,. to unearth this strange family. While they were digging, the old wolf, the whelps, and the boy bolted forth. The trooper pur sued them on horseback, and as the ground in the direc tion of their flight was more even, the trooper was able to head them, and turn them back upon the crowd of men, who secured the boy, and let the wolves escape. We now continue the narrative in the words of our informant : " They took the boy to the village, but had to tie him, for he was very restive, and struggled hard to rush into every hole or den they came near. They tried to make him speak, but could get nothing from him but an angry growl or snarl. W hen a grown-up person came near him he became alarmed, and tried to steal away ; but when a child came near him he rushed at it with a fierce snarl, like that of a dog, and tried to bite it. When any cooked meat was put before him he rejected it in disgust, but when any raw meat was offered, he seized it with avidity, put it on the ground under his paws like a dog, and ate it with evident pleasure, He would not let any one come near while he was eating, but he made no objection to a dog coming and sharing his food with him. The trooper remained with him four or five days, and then returned to the governor, leaving the boy in charge of the Rajah of Hasunpoor. He related all that he had seen, and the boy was soon after sent to Captain Nicholett, commanding the first regiment of Oudh Local Infantry at Sultanpoor, by order of the Rajah of Hasunpoor, who was at Chandour, and saw the boy when the trooper first brought him to the village. This is from the Rajah's own account of what had taken place. " The boy lived under charge of Captain Nicholett's servants until August, 1850, or nearly two years, During this time he had been never known to speak ; but one day he put his hands to Lis head, said "it ached," and asked for water. He drank it and died. While in Capt. Nicholett's household, he was very inoffensive, except when teased ; he would then growl surlily. He learned to eat anything that was thrown to him, but. always preferred raw flesh. He refused to wear clothing of any description in the coldest weather. A quilt stuffed with cotton was once given him when it was very cold, but he tore it in pieces and ate a portion of it, cotton and all, with his food every day, as a kind of condiment. He was particularly fond of uncooked bones, whicn he masti cated with apparently as much ease as meat. He would eat half a lamb at a time, • • effort, and held earth and small tion as an article of diet. His fe, countenance repulsive, and his habits very filthy lighted in the company of dogs, jackals, and other se fourfooted animals, which he would make his trench( companions. He was never known to laugh or smile. He understood little of what was said to him ; and paid no attention to what went on around him. He would never play with children, and termed no attachment with man or beast. He once became on intimate terms with a wanted when pariah dog, but w h en the de g was s h o t, he did not seem to regret his de a th i n th e l ea st. H e used signs when he an gr y y. itlinHg,epgoeinnetrinalgly wentto liis mouth, on all fours, but not always. He would never willingly remain near a human being. for instance, " This poor creature was recognised by his parent ; but they soon be c a m e dis g usted, and deserted him. His age, , at the time of his death, was apparently years of age." V, GA caA:y stones in high estima itures were coarse, his He de- The events of which the southern provinces of France are at this moment the theatre, are of too- important a nature, in their bearing upon the• future destiny of Europe, to be overlooked by those whose duty it is to stand on the watch tower, and sound the note of warning whenever they see danger approaching. We' last week intimated our conviction, that be fore the end of 1852, the present state of things in France would undergo a 'change, and that the no minal Republic would give place to the Empire. Every event which has since transpired,. connected with the manifestation of public' feeling in France, confirms that conviction, and' places beyond the shadow of a doubt the fact, that the prize on which Louis Napoleon has long fixed his heart, and to wards which, with matchless coolness, subtlety, and perseverance, he has been moving for years past, is now within his grasp. The curtain will soon rise upon the last scene of the drama,. and on the ruins of the Republic, which he solemnly swore to uphold in all its integrity, Louis- Napoleon will he crowned Einperor of France, and. seek to raise the fallen tabernacle of his house. It is unnecessory for us to lay before our readers the details of what we may call the "Royal Pro gress through the south of France. Everywhere, according at least to the Government journals, the reception of the future Emperor has been of the most enthusiastic character. In no place has a single individual been found, who had courage or temerity enough to raise the cry which but a few years since seemed to move the very heart of France with gladness—nowhere, we say, has a single voice been heard to utter " Vve la Republipe."' Even " Vice Napoleon" has been but feebly heard. " Vive l'Empereur" is the cry by which all others are drowned,. and by which la grande Nation is being cheated into the belief, that it is about to enter upon a career, the glories of which shall eclipse all that stands revealed in the history of the past, and possibly to heal, some of those wounds which efill r2rode and foctor hoc national p7itiO. Whatever the opinion which men may entertain respecting the personal character of Louis Napo leon, or of the light in which his conduct ought to be viewed, but one conviction can exist as- to the ability which he has displayed in compassing the object upon .which his heart is set. Among the proofs of this ability which have occurred during his progress through the southern departments, none, in our opinion, have surpassed that which he gave on the occasion of the inauguration at Lyons of the equestrian statue of the Emperor, his uncle. Availing himself of the opportunity, he thus spoke home to the hearts of the assembled thousands, who, as if moved by one spirit, responded to the appeal, with shouts of " Wve.l'Empereur." " Lyonese—Your town has ever been associated with remarkable incidents in the different phases of the life of the Emperor. You selected him Consul on his way across the mountains to collect fresh laurels ; you selected him Emperor, all powerful ; and when Europe confined him to an island, you were again the first in 1815 to salute him Emperor. In the same way, your town is the first to-day to raise him an equestrian statue. The fact possesses significance. Statues are only raised to Sovereigns who have reigned ; thus the Government which pre ceded ME. have always denied this homage to apower whose legitimacy they wanld not admit. And yet, who was most legitimate ? The Emperor, three times elected by the people, crowned by the chief of religion, recognised by all the constitutional powers of Europe, united to him both by ties of policy and blood ? The Emperor was the mediator between two hostile ages. He killed the old red :ante, while he maintained all that it had belonging to it of good ; he destroyed the revolutionary spirit, by causing the triumph everywhere of the benefits of the revolution. In this is explained , why those who overthrew him had soon to deplore their triumph ; and as for those who defended him,.need I recall how much they wept his fall ? Thus, as soon as the nation founil itself free to choose, it cast its eyes upon the heir of Napoleon, and for the same reason, from Paris to Lyons, on all parts of my journey, was raised the unanimous cry of Vive l'Empereer P Yet this cry is is far more in my eyes a souvenir which touches my heart, than a hope that touches my pride. Faithful servant of the country, I will never have but one aim —that of re-constituting in this great country, shaken by so many commotions and Utopias, a peace based on conciliation amongst men, upon the inflexibility of the principle of authority, of morality, of love for the laborious and suffering classes, and of national dignity. We are yet hardly out of those moments of crisis in which, the notions of evil and good being confounded, the best mind becomes perverted. Prudence and Patriotism require, that in such mo ments the nation take council before fixing its destinies; and it is still,, for me, difficult to know under what name I can render the greatest services. If the modest title of President could facilitate the mission that was confided to me, and from which I have not shrunk, it is not from any personal inte rest that I would desire to change this title for that of Emperor. Let us, then, offer on this stone our homage to a great man. In so doing, we at once do honour to the glory of France and the generous gratitude of the people—we thus record the fidelity of the Lyonese to immortal recollections." Let our readers endeavour to place themselves in the position, and to imagine themselves possessed of the national feelings of the thousands who listened to this eloquent appeal, and they will be at no loss to account for the enthusiasm which pervaded the whole mass, nor for their determination to place upon the head of Louis Napoleon the diadem which once encircled the brow of his uncle. They, simple souls, appear to see nothing but the transparency of truth in every word he utters. We, on the con trary, see nothing but the cunning craftiness of one who has been schooled in duplicity, and who, now that he is certain of the prize, for the possession of which he has alternately played the tyrant and the sycophant, can afford to talk about " Vice l'Empereur" as something that " touches his heart as a souven i r, more than a hope that touches his pride," and to act in such a manner, that " greatness shall be thrust upon him." The Empire attained, what then ? We pretend not to assume the prophetic mantle. All that we say at present is, let F beware, and let .6urope . - England stand prepared. The day has not yet arrived when we can afford to "beat our swords into plough-shares," or our "spears into pruning hooks."—Bell's Weekly Messenger. SALE OF WATER-COLOUR DRAWINGS.—Messrs.

COMMERCIAL AND MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT WE have this week to record a material improve ment in business, which has affected the whole of the principal staples of our port. To some extent, probably, this may be accounted for by the fact that the late portion of the harvest, in the north of England and Scotland, has been got in under more favourable circumstances than the earlier crops in the south, and is a better sample. Another circum stance has also had some effect, viz. the damage done in the United States to the growing Cotton crop, as well as to that of Rice. It is remarkable that an active Cotton market generally infuses live liness into the demand for other commodities. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, TUESDAY, REPTEMBER 28 1 185 q.

True, they have not hitherto suc ceeded, and perhaps the mutual benefits arising out of their political and municipal amalgamation with old Liverpool " proper," may be regarded as one cause of their failure. But, considering that the Park contains a present population of something like 80,000 or 100,000 inhabitants, which is rapidly increasing, their jealousy of " annexation" (to use a favourite Yankee phrase) is nothing more than natural. Thanks, however, to the energy and public spirit of Mr. Edgar, they can, at least, now boast of their own " Park Theatre," the opening of which, under the lesseeship and management of the last-named gentleman, took place last evening, under most favourable auspices.
