TUESDAY MORNING AUGUST 15, 1843 That a great portion of the distress and crime be traced to the unsatisfac- existing in Ire] tions of landlords and occupiers in that untry is ndeniabl and it gratifying, there- fore, to observe, that government is pledged to enter into an examination of the subject, and to endeavour to devise a remedy. We must confess, however, that we are not very sanguine with respect to the amount of benefit derivable from mere legislation. The practice of subletting may possibly he checked. Absenteeism may be visited with discouragement; but the master evil—that craving for the occupation of land, at any price and in any quantity, which binds down the_great mass of the Irish peasantry to the condition of Helots upon the soil where they ought to breathe as free men—will still remain. We shall still, under any law which can be devised for the amelioration of the habits and condition of the Irish people, be compelled to witness agrarian outrage, arising out of competition for land, and still to see contracts entered into, and their fulfilment enforced, which are at once disgrace ful to the landowner and ruinous to the tenant. no really effective remedy for the condi tion of the Irish people but the influx of capital and enterpris There into that country, in sufficient amount to it surplus labour, and detach them from employ the their present position as mere squatters u, pon the soil. Ireland wants employment for her peasantry —continuous and remunerative employment —to create, out of her miserable cottiers and small holders, a race of independent labourers. But that capital can never be supplied whilst agitation is ram pant through the land. Tranquillise Ireland ; put down her rebellious spirit; proclaim to her misled population that they have nothing to hope for from violence, and capital will at once and steadily flow towards her shores, and convert a scene of squalid misery into one of contented industry and hap piness. Sir Robert Peel hopes, it would appear, to effect this good by a legislative movement in the direction of " fixity of tenure," for such was the measure of Mr. Sharman Crawford, withdrawn to make way the proposed measure of government. We feel convinced, however, that aay such measure—any measure which arbitrarily and greatly interferes with the contracts between landlord and tenant, and espe cially one which gives the latter an undue portion of the rights of the former—will be found injurious and dangerous. We can dispense in England with such interference. We can leave each party to make their own.bargain ; and, if Ireland was in a healthy condition, she could equally dispense with such in terference. If the agitation which now distracts and deforms her was put down, she would speedily arrive at such a condition. Her labour, bid for by the capitalist, would cease to cling to the soil, and waste its strength in improvident bargaining for oc cupation. Her peasantry now chained down to their miserable holdings, would be emancipated from their compulsory idleness and poverty, and enabled to depend upon their own exertions for a continuous and assured prosperity. The night of Monday last was to have been an era in the history of England's Parliament. On that night the members of that noble assembly walked down to the house with palpitating hearts, prepared to be amazed, awed, terrified, withered, annihilated, or driven into hysterics of delight, by t eloquence of the maiden parliamentary effort of the meek and modest representative of the city of t night for the Durham first time to throw his broadbrim into the wordy arena, strip off his brown or drab, and make of the entire Conservative party a collection of the most wofully shattered and battered caricatures of huma nity that eve was on t presented themselves to the eontem- Aation of mankind. Whiggery was up in the stir onservatism shook through all its of Sir Robert Peel was about to be " catawampously chawed up."! runs in extasy; C, The ministr, borUe Well, the important hour arrived. Blushing like a bride—with the anticipation of victory gleaming in his eye, and the very buttons of his coat throw ing out intelligence and radiance—John Bright arose, run his fingers through his hair, hemmed twice or thrice, and then began. But such a be ginjing ! such a middle! su c h a t erm i na tion I The reds of Parliament—the pages of history—nay, romance itself—never furnished to the world so dire a specimen of bathos. The uncorking of a bottle of smoke—the bursting of a boiler—a colliery explosion,—these were nothing compared with the woful break down, or blow up, of the be-puffed and be-praised quaker ! A prepared speech it was, no doubt. It smelt villanously of the counting-house, and Rochdale flannel. But the unlucky orator's self-possession had deserted him ; and the diatribe which was to hav' electrified the house, by the force of its argument and the grace of its delivery, lite rally rolled out of his mouth, or ran out of it, a continuous stream of trope and metaphor, bombast, and railing, one huddled upon the heels of the other, until at length the hapless gentleman concluded, after the fashion of a spent water-engine, exhausted the small supply of mud and crater to be drawn from some village well! In truth, a more utter failure than Mr. Bright's we never remember to have noticed. Little as we have always thought of his pretensions to the pos session of wisdom or of talent, we never dreamt to have seen his very impudence desert him, as it ap pearsto have don e on thi s occas i on . Af ter a ll, the exhibition proves to us, however, that the House of which has THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD Commons is the place in which such personages as modest John most speedily arrive at a correct notion of their really small dimensions ! ig perplexing, as well as alarm ng, in the contemplati on , o f t h e present state of There is sometl Wales We have never listened to the thousand and one stories which have been promulgated, with respect to the identity and rank of the mysterious We are inclined to think that here are " many Rebeccas in the field." We can- virago, Rebccca not believe that men of rank and station encourage an agitation with so petty an object in view as the 'struction of toll-bars; or even the greater one of putting down the new poor-law system in Wales. And yet it is evident that great talent, and great energy, direct this extensive organisation, which so daringly and so effectually defies and laughs at the power of the law, as well as the arm of the military; and it becomes more palpable every day that an effort must be made, at once, by the government to unravel this mysterious and threatening state of From all that we have yet seen, it cannot be that the perpetrators of those midnight outrages of which we daily hear, are of the same station and character with those who arc to be found implicated in similar outrages in Ireland, or who have ever displayed a similar spirit in the agricultural districts of our own country. Rebecca is neither a "Swing," a " Cap tain Rick," nor an O'Connell. Her followers are not the same debased and demoralised hordes who have followed the bidding of any of these incendia ries. There can be no more doubt of the fact than we have of our own existence, that, whoever may be their leader or leaders, amongst the followers of Re becca are to be found many who occupy respectable I positions in life—men who are to be met with by day, at fair or market, enjoying respectable charac ter in the eyes of their fellow-countrymen. If the bulk of the active disturbers are labourers, colliers, or copper miners, they have with them, to g ide their movements and to provide the means of suc cess, both tradesmen, farmers, and perhaps gentle men. And in this circumstance is to be found the threatening character of the conspiracy, which appa rently extends now throughout the principality, and the pressing necessity of an immediate examination into the causes of its origin and the objects of the conspirators. They can be no light causes—they can be no petty objects—which have thus bound together and organised against the law an entire people ! We fear that such an enquiry would elicit the fact that a great portion of the farming classes and small traders throughout Wales are, from some cause which we do not stay to point out, labouring under the pressure of severe distress. For the alleviation of this, a government commission could of course provi le no remedy, and even " the wisdom of par liament" might find itself at fault. But there must be other and serious causes for the prevailing discon tent, which such a commission might be able to trace and parliament to remove. At all events the effort must be made; and, we trust, that we shall not see the present session permitted to conclude, without some explanation from Sir Robert Peel's government and some assurance offered, not that the peace of the country will be preserved—for that we have a sufficient military force to effect— but that the evil—the mysterious evil—which pro duces all this disaffection and violence, shall be probed to its root. It may be possible that the "do-nothing policy" may be the wisest course to pursue towards the dis affected masses in Ireland, though we fear and be lieve that it is not. It is true that nothing in , he shape of remedial effort towards Ireland can be made with any prospect of success, whilst the people of that country maintain their present hostile attitude, and continue their present injurious agitation. But such a difficulty does not exist in the case before us. We have in the Principality a loyal Saxon people, hitherto the devoted supporters of peace and order. We see them, it is true and to be regretted, just now taking into their own hands the redress of real or imagined grievances; but we hear of no rebellious threats uttered aganist the throne or the institutions of the country. The grievances of the Welsh peo ple are local, and of local cure; and here the go vernment may, without the sacrifice of its dignity, step in at once, with at least a disposition to arrive at the truth and to apply the remedy, if found to be within its reach. an extraordinary swallow for fluids might take a fancy to bolt the Giant's Causeway or the Dublin Custom House, or perhaps the Hill of Houth itself, by way of preparatory solid before a draught so enormous. A BOWING MATCH.—The debate, or properly perhaps the squabble, which took place on Friday last on the subject of the Chelsea Pensioners' Bil!, afforded to the House of Commons as singular an exhibition, and as amusing a one, as any which has been exhibited for months past in that or any other place of performance. Mr. B. Williams, the mem ber for Coventry, and double of Mr. Joseph Hume, rose to ask a question. Mr. Bright rose at the same time to move the adjournment of the house; and, as we are informed by the report in the London Times, " The hon. member for Coventry and the hon. member for Durham both continued on their legs bowing to each other several times amidst roars of laughter, neither of them appearing inclined to give way. The hon. member for Coventry, h owever , persevere d , an d at l eng th his rival, less accustomed to the laughter of the house, re sumed his seat." Who could wonder at the roars of lr ughter at such a scene ? The attempt of Mr. Williams to enact the drawing-room beau must have been sufficient to convulse a stoic ; but the graceful (. efforts of the Rochdale Quaker, in the same line of performance, must have been irresistible ! When such exhibitions of elegance can be afforded us by two such person ages, we may be almost inclined to think that, not " the schoolmaster" only, but the dancing master "is abroad" ! After all, and jbking apart, it is pleasant to see a spirit so pacific actuating honour able members towards each other. In the American legislature a contest for precedence between any two members would have been decided by the bowiely knife. Here we have it decided quite as efficaciously by " persevering bowing." In time, no doubt, as Quakeris►n gets perfect in accomplishments, we shall arrive at hornpipe dancing or the Highland fling ! SIGNIFICANT—BUT OF WHAT ?—The repealers are becoming savage. Scarcely an Irish paper reaches us which does not record three or four murderous attacks committed upon some unpro tected protestant, or some loyal member of their own faith. The " peaceful agitation" is degene rating into a system of midnight ruffianism or open outrage, similar to that practised in years past under the dictation of the " Ribbon" authorities, or Cap tains " Rock" and " Starlight." Along with this changed state of affairs it is scarcely possible to avoid noticing the absence of that tone of furious bluster and bravado, which used formerly to cha racterise the speeches of Daniel, the great leader of the repeal sedition. We hear less of hi , professions of readiness to shed his blood for his favourite hobby ; and, more than all, we see the promised meeting of a parliament in Dublin, with its ac companying measures of confiscation and proscrip tion, postponed from this year 1843—" the repeal year (!)"—to a more distant and indefinite period ! Of what are these things significant ? Is the " peaceful" system found to be one unlikely to succeed ? Have the preparations of " the Iron Duke"—the preparations of lead and steel, musket and artillery—at length been discovered to be such as repealers have little chance, ultimately, to with stand ? We much suspect that some notion of this sort has alarmed the cowardly blusterer—that " re bellion has ill luck," (thanks to the preparations of that member of her Majesty's government, who assures us that nothing in his department is ne glected ;)—and that henceforth we are to be visited merely with desultory murder and outrage in Ireland, instead of that simultaneous and successful stand against the law, which perhaps was originally con templated ! There is a changed feeling somewhere, it is evident; we do not say that it is for the better. We much prefer the open onset to the cowardly night attack. Of one circumstance, however, this change is significant. It proclaims to us that, ruthless and bloodthirsty as are the agitators for re peal, they prefer a whole skin and immunity from the gallows to the overt indulgence of their longing for rebellion, with the prospect before them of an adequate force to put it down. However dilatory and hesitating may be, in our opinion, and in the world's opinion, the policy of the present govern ment towards the repeal traitors, by the aid of the sturdy duke's precautions, we are enabled to sleep in our beds, here in England, with tolerable as surance of safety. Our brethren in Ireland, how ever, are scarcely in so happy a position. The rebel arm, which cannot reach far enough to strike at the integrity of the empire, may reach them in their lonely cabins. The bludgeon, the knife, or the pistol may meet them at fair or market, on the hill side, or in the highway. As a body, however, we fear not for their security and their ultimate triumph in the emergency with which they are threatened. They will look about them and "keep their powder dry." VISIT TO ENGLAND OF THE DUKE OF PAL MELLA.—In our last publication we expressed our opinion, founded upon what we belied to be au thentic information, that the visit of the Duke of Palmella to this country would be found to be for the purpose of concluding, upon the terms offered by this country, the long negotiated Commercial Treaty between Portugal and Great Britain. Since writing the article in question, although we have had to notice the doubts of one or two of our con temporaries, we have heard nothing to shake our faith in the views which we originally advanced ; and we have now to offer to our readers the follow ing confirmating opinion, which we find in a lead ing article of the London Times of yesterday. The Portuguese Government appears to have made up its mind with unusual promptitude as to the probable consequences of the revolution in Spain. Politically speak ing, the.disturbances which convulse the larger monarchy cannot be indifferent to the minor state ; and the exam ple of Barcelona and all the "pronouncing" towns on the Mediterranean is not without a bad effect on Oporto and the distressed wine-growing districts on the Atlantic. The Government at Lisbon is probably, therefore, the less disposed to adhere to a line of commercial policy which is as dangerous to the tranquillity of the country as it is fatal to !her interests. The arrival of the Duke of Palmella in London is an occurreuce which cannot be mis understood ; and, as we were led to believe that the fail ure of the former negotiation was mainly attributable to the influence of certain private and local interests, we may now hope that the renewal of the question in London, and by the intervention of so distinguished a representative of the Portuguse Court, affords the strongest grounds of hope, and will ere long justify the confident predictions of our Lisbon correspondent. " The immediate effect of such an arrangement with Portugal would be, to establish along her whole internal frontier a system of smuggling into Spain as , complete as that which prevails on the side of the Pyrennees, and Spain would be compelled in self-detente to accede ulti mately to the same terms. In the meanwhile, the very same trade which, from its illicit character, must be inju riods to the revenue and the manufactures of Spain, would be eminently productive to the revenue of Portugal. Lisbon and Oporto would share with Cadiz and Barcelona VALUE OF GUANO AS A MANURE.—fhe Man. the trade of the whole Peninsula; and, provided the e scale chester and Salford Advertiser of Sat ur d a y says — of Portuguese duties is sufficien tly low to d e f eat the Spa " We are inf orme d b y a correspondent, that a meadow nish smuggler on the coast, an important change will be belongin g t o M essrs.

Such a trade, however, is not the benefit which we contemplated as likely to result from an arrangement, such as that to which pointed, or a benefit for the realization of which a country ought to model its measures of customs' relaxation. We expect from this arrange ment with Portugal, a protective arrangement for a legitimate commerce with Spain, and ultimately with France ; and in this anticipation we do not expect to be deceived. HEALTH OF TOWNS CONINrIssION.--We per ceive that a circular has: been addressed by the com missioners to the authorities of Manchester, calling their attention to the increasing mortality of the town, and announcing that th y have requested Dr. Lyon Playfair, one of the commissioners, to under take an enquiry into the causes of its unhealthiness. Possibly, when so near us, the board may direct their commissioner to pay Liverpool a visit. Since writing the above, we perceive that a similar announcement has reached this town, and that Dr. Playfair may be expected here on the 15th instant. NEWS FOR TIIE SPANISH.-Our contemporary, the Liverpool Times, remarks, on Tuesday last, of the hostile parties who are contesting for supremacy in Spain : " We see from an article in the Journal des Dads, that the members of the two factions, which brought about this revolution, have already begun to quarrel at Barcelona, and to threaten each other with death ; and it won't be long before these threats are fulfilled." We trust our contemporary is right, and that the two factions (like the celpprated Kilkenny cats) will very shortly carry their :threats into execution and kill each other. Such an event will be a blessed riddance for the Spanish people, if indeed there are likely to be any people left after the factions have eat each other up. THREAT OF THE REPEALERS TO DRINK UP THE BOYNE WATER !—The apostle of temperance is no doubt working miracles in this country ; but we fear that we must resign ourselves to his speedy departure for his own land, unless we wish to hear, some fine morning, of the Liffey and the Shannon, or a portion of the Irish Channel itself, being drunk dry by his disciples, the Repealers of Ireland. " When the cat's away, the mice will play;" and, in the absence of the worthy father, his Irish proto gees display a propensity for drinking which is quite shocking to contemplate ! The Rev. Mr. M'Cormack, p.p. inspector of repeal wardens in the county of Westmeath, in a letter to the Repeal Asso ciation, offers the following evidence of this awful growth of Irish drinking capabilities and prat. tices IMPORTANT PROBLEM.—At the meeting of the council on Wednesday, Mr. Alderman Earle proposed the fol lowing . important . 9uery :.—:` Can . any policeman stop a woman's tongue ?". and intimated his own opinion that " he would find that a work of some difficulty." We would suggest that the attention of men of science be directed to the solution of a question so momentous ; and that they may derive some valuable hints from the difficulty experienced by the mayor in stopping the tongue of the worthy alderman himself. " 1 read somewhere of an army that drank the river Xantbus dry, but future historians, peradventure, will record the more astonishing fact, that a multitude assem bled at Tara in 1843, so great, that they drank up all the Boyne water, without leaving as much behind as would cool a Saxon rat." (I) - - --- LIVERPOOL REPEAL BOBADILS.-At a recent meeting of the Repeal Association, held at the Corn Exchange, Dublin, a letter was read from Mr. G. Smyth, of Li. verpool, remitting £l6 from the repeaters of that town, and stating that they were not at all alarmed at the rumours afloat respecting an attempt to prevent the in. tended Tara-hill meeting, and assuring the association that the more brass cannon sent to Ireland by the govern ment, the more gold would be sent by the Liverpool re. pealers. (!) Where will they get it? -- - A meeting assembled to drink the Boyne dry will be an awful object for contemplation ! And horrible to reflect upon is the possibility that men with such CHESTER ASSIZES YESTERDAY.—CIVIL SIDE Before Baron Gurney. COAL MINES, BAGILLT. Hanmer v. Euton awl others. The Solicitor-General (Sir W. Follett), Mr. Hill, (At torney-General of the Palatine), Mr. Temple, and Mr. Hanmer, counsel for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Jervis, Q.C., Mr. Welsby, and Mr. Townsend, for the defendants. The SOLICITOR GENERAL stated the case, to the effect that the plaintiff, Mr. W. Hanmer, was the trustee of Sir John Hanmer, under the will of the late Sir Thomas Hanmer, who was possessed of considerable estates in the county of Flint, including the mine in the parish of Flint, known as the Dee Bank Colliery, and which it was com plained had been destroyed by the negligent or wilful wrong acts of the defendants, the Messrs. Eyton, large mining proprietors, in the same county. The property in question borders the River Dee, and consisted of several valuable veins of coal ; the dip was from the uplands down towards the river ; the veins were the three and five yards, which were very valuable, and dipped under the river. In 1826 it was leased to par ties named Howells, for twenty-five years, reserving a royalty of one-seventh. It was since worked by the Dee Bank Colliery Company. Adjacent to this colliery was one worked by the defendants, leased from Dr. Richard son. About 45 years ago the late Mr. Ellis, of Cornist, worked Sir John Hanmer's mines, and several also of the the adjacent mines. He worked through tWo faults, and opened into one. which let an immense body of water supposed to be tapped from the river Dee, which filled a large space under ground, and formed a sort of subterra nean lake, known as the boot water, from the Boot Col liery ; and which was kept out of the rest of the collieries by a fault. This body of water was well known to all the colliers, and it was also known, that if the fault was dis turbed it would have disastrous effects upon all the adja cent collieries. The defendants began to work their wine at Bagillt about eight or nine years ago, and had nearly exhausted them. It was so situated that water flowed from it into the pits, whose engines had to remove it. About 3 years since they sunk a pit towards the fault which was the barrier against the boot water. Notice was given to their agent that they were proceeding in driving levels, which would destroy all the collieries ; and which notice was re peated. He should prove by their own workmen, that this notice was given, and that they coutinued to work towards the fault in question. The accident happened on Sunday, the 2nd of July last; and it was providential that it happened on that day, as one hundred lives might have been lost ; the boot water burst in, and first destroyed the defendant's pits, and then the plaintiff's pits. In the first instance the defendants offered to pay the expense of drain ing the plaintiff's pits ; but the learned counsel said he was instructed that that could not be done, but that the colliery was totally destroyed. With respect to the ques tion of damage, he entered into a variety of calculations, by which it appeared that for some years the royalty had averaged annually about £1,547 ; and that there were about ninety-one acres of the three and five yard veins, which gave a gross tonnage of 2,344,427, but deducting the usual per tentage, the net tonnage would be about 1,687,998 tons. It would take 90 years to exhaust these beds. He entered into two calculations founded upon different scales; one came to £20,194, the other to £30,944. After some further observations, he stated that he should sustain his statement by evidence ; and as Sir J. Hanmer had lost his property by the default of the defendants, he was entitled to full compensation at their hands. A number of witnesses were then called to prove the case as stated by the learned Council, and at the rising of the Court there remained two witnesses to examine on behalf of the plaintiff. The cause excited considerable interest, in consequence of the amount of property at stake, the damages being laid at £200,000. WOLVERHAMPTON RACES Y - ESTERD AY. THE TRIAL STAKES. Col.

THE GRAND PICTURES OF " ADAM AND EVE" IN PARADISE.—It will be found, by the advertisement, that the liberal proprietor of these splendidly and universally admired works of art has invited all the Sunday and cha rity school children to a gratuitous view of them. CONCERT AT THE COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION LAST lgioxyr.—The evening proved showery and cast a gloom over the prospect; but the arrivals poured in thick and fast, and, in spite of the discomfiting wet, the joyous throng wended towards the hall of blaze and song, till " above—below " one brillant galaxy of beauty and ex pectant faces shewed that rain could not damp, nor clouds obscure, the sunshine of music's sons and daughters, when such a treat hung out its inviting promises of cele brated talent—vocal and instrumental. It is impossible, however, at the late hour at which the concert closed, to give, until next week, any thing like an adequate notice of the evening's entertainment. THE WEATHER.—After three or four days of the finest sunny weather we have yet enjoyed, the weather yester day underwent a rather unfavourable change, and heavy showers fell throughout the afternoon and evening, which will perhaps partially lay some of the crops. Should it, however, soon become settled and continue dry and clear for a few weeks, the wheat generally in this neighbour hood will be fit for the sickle, as it has already assumed the yellow autumnal hue, and gives promise of a heavy yield. The other crops continue to look well. We un derstand that some specimens of oats, the produce of this season, were exhibited at the corn market at Chester on Saturday last. BIRKENHEAD NEW FIRE-ENGINE.—On Monday week a public trial took place, at Birkenhead, for the pur pose of testing the power of the new fire-engine, which has been provided by the liberality of the London Assur ance Corporation. The engine, which is from the manu factory of Mr. Merryweather, of London, consists of two forcing pumps, each seven inches in diameter, mounted upon a spring carriage of excellent workmanship. It was worked under the superintendence of Mr. Baddeley, who had come from. London expressly ; and, with a single jet, seven-eighths of an inch in diameter, threw water over the highest building in Hamilton-square. On two jets of five-eighths of an inch in diameter being attached, the water was simultaneously thrown to a still greater height. A trial then took place bet veen the Norwich Union Com pany's old engine and the new one, worked by the same number of men and the same pipes. The latter, however, had the decided advantage in point of power. Mr. Bad the t whichi e s n u t s o e f d s übrytaocueri causedt fire - p o the water to cover was astonishing. l d i e c l e e , y w 's as ne t w ha f n an ex o h r ih s i p t r e e d e , d a e t r id . " LIVINGSTON AND WILMER'S EXPRESS. —ry e have received the first number of a very neat newspaper of this title published in New York, " expressly for transmission by every steam=ship sailing from the United States to Great Britain." The proprietors are our townsmen Mr. Charles Wilmer, and his partner, Mr. Livingston, who resides in New York, and there manages the concern. It is intended principally to supply in a condensed form ac counts of all important events and occurrences in the United States and Canada, between the time of sailing of the last steam-ship for England and the departure of the next; and we need scarcely say, that if it be conducted with care and energy, it can scarcely fail to succeed. In the present number the principal feature is a rather interest ing general summary, which, however, shows that there is a lack of general information of importance, at present, on the other side the water as well as here. We have no doubt but improvements will suggest themselves to the editor, and should his available information be well epito mized,his sheet will become highly acceptable to English readers. DINNER TO MR. JAMES ORME.—On Tuesday last, under the management of a committee of gentlemen, a public dinner was given to Mr. James Orme, at his own house, the Rimrose Hotel, Bootle, as a token of respect for his character as a man and as a tradesman, and in order to show that he bad not suffered in the estimation of his friends by the late legal proceedings to which he had been, unfortunately, subjected. About one hundred gentlemen sat down. John Formby, Esq. one of the county justices, presided on the occasion, and Mr. William Horne, of the Mersey Hotel, occupied the vice-chair. After a few loyal toasts had been disposed of, the chairman rose to propose " Our guest, Mr. James Orme, Mrs. Orme, and all the little Ormes-heads." The chairman spoke very highly of Mr. Orme, whom, he said, he had known for a long time, and always found him an upright, honest man, as they all that day still believed him to be. The toast was received with the most deafening cheers, which were continued for some time. Mr. Orme very feelingly replied. The com pany spent a very delightful and harmonious evening. h t e a e s n h d r a o y a s, gaNEW YORK. —Th e N ew Y ork Packet Ship Roscius ar rived at thi s port on Friday night, after a passage of seven passengers, York amongston the whom2sth u 1 t is m Sh r e .

The accounts from New Orleans represent the cotton crop in Mississippi and the adjoining States to have suffered se verely by -tbe heavy rains and inundations, and the yield, _ it is said, will show a considerable falling off this year as compared with the l as t. A ser i ous r i ot had taken place in Kingston, Canada, on the 12th ult., in which a lad, named Morrison, was killed. BANK OF MANCHESTER The proceedings of the London Court of Bankruptcy during the past week have disclosed to the world a novel feature in the ruinous and scandalous career of the Bank of Manchester. Whilst that mis-managed concern was busily engaged in propping up the various mushroom firms which its own improvident advances had brought into existence ;—whilst engaged in bolstering up specu lation in railway shares, mines, mills, and other bubbles, —it was, although the public was not aware of the fact, itself, the greatest bubble of all, supported by the efforts of its runaway cashier, and a couple of London bill brokers, who have confessed to the fact that, although they were not possessed of a shilling in the world, and the bank must have known of that fact, they succeeded in raising for it capital to the extent of between two and three millions, at a time when its own London bankers would not discount a shilling's worth of its paper, and the Bank of England had equally closed its books against all ungnaranteed transactions with such a ricketty con cern. For two or three years, previous to its final blow up, when the world imagined it a prosperous concern— when dividends were being paid, and flattering reports being issued—it was a hopelessly struggling thing, upheld only by the activity and tact, in staving off an evil day, of a couple of adventurers, one of whom bad but recently emerged from the clearing process of bankruptcy, and neither of whose security was intrinsically worth the price of the smallest piece of paper upon which his name could be written. The facts of the case, as elicited by the shabby attempt of the bank to deny to these two useful auxiliaries the remuneration really and justly due for services of such vast extent are briefly these. Somewhere about 1838, the Bank of Manchester began to feel a little difficulty in making the world believe all the fine things which its half-yearly reports represented as facts. It was in bad odour with the Bank of England and with its own Lon don bankers; and its bills were looked at in the discount market as very so-so things to have to do with. In this dilemma we find its manager going up to London and— not succeediug in dissipating the doubts of either their own bankers or the Bank of England, but—discovering a new bill-broking firm in the city, by ehom their bills were arranged to be got cashed in the general market. One member of this firm was in 1837 a partner in a bank rupt firm in Monument Yard, as a hat manufacturer. The other was we know not whom ; but both were in the delightful predicament when they commenced business— or were started in business for a purpose which we need not hint at—of being without capital. "We had no capi tal," remarks one of the firm who was under examination, " neither of us. It is the practice of brokers to trade upon the capital of others." With some joint stock banks it appears to be the practice " to trade upon" the credulity of the world at large, and their shareholders in particular I Well. this firm, which had no capital and traded upon the capital of others, went forthwith into the market with a quantity of the flash bills of the Bank of Manchester; and, in the course of their operations, which appear to have extended over little more than three years, succeeded in raising upon them nearly three millions of money ! One of the partners states that " placing credit in the statement which was put before the world," that the paid up capital of the bank was £741,000, " we pledged our credit and our honour for them to the amount of more than £1,842,000. We relied upon these representations of the bank, and we felt bound in honour to see that these liabilities were run off;" and another partner states that the total advances procured by the firm amounted to £2,000,000 or £3,000,000." Ultimately, upon the ab sconding of the manager, Burdekin,—who, by the bye, says that he was " advised to abscond" by one of the pre sent officers of the bank,—the useful functionaries were proceeded against by the very concern which they had so long plopped up, and now, being driven into the Bank ruptcy Court, they are not only denied any fair remune ration, but their certificate even opposed on the ground that one of the parties, relying upon his assumed profit from all this discounting and advancing of MILLIONS, has commit►.ed the enormity of expending upon his living the sum of a thousand a year! Most heartily we wish the gentlemen who have resorted to this very shabby proceedure, a joyful contemplation of the exposure which they have drawn upon themselves ; and heartily, too, we congratulate the community. Every ray of light thrown upon such enormities as are here proved to have been committed, will contribute to fasten upon the public mind the growing conviction that some legislative effort will have to be made before long to pro tect the commerce of the empire from the dangers entailed upon it by such bubbles as this very pattern joint stock bank. Loss OF THE SHIP MEMPHIS.—This fine ship, re cently purchasedifor one of the Liverpool line of packets, was lost, about thirty miles north of Cape Hatteras, on the 22d ult. She had stretched a little too far in shore, and struck while in stays. The passengers and crew were saved, and a pot tion of the cargo will also be got on shore ; but the ship will be lost. The Memphis cleared from New Orleans for New York on the 6th instant, with a cargo, consisting of 721 bales of cotton, 91 hhds. tobacco, 5863 pigs lead, 1647 sacks wheat, 625 do. corn, 55 barrels whiskey, 93 do. oil, 80 do. lard, 37 do. flaxseed, and 84 bales hemp. The vessel is insured at the different offices in New York for 50,900 dollars. The amount of insurance on the cargo has not been ascertained. She was com manded by Captain Allen, for many years of the packet ship Sheffield. FIRE PREVENTION BILL.--A meeting of the occupiers of Warehouses was held on Saturdry last at the Claren don-rooms, I. C. Hallowes in the chair, to consider upon the expediency of sending a deputation to London on the subject of the fire prevention bill now before the House of Lords. It was determined to oppose those clauses in the bill which required the warehouse keeper to superin tend the porters without any charge, but otherwise to avoid doing anything to prejudice the bill, which, as it now stands, it was stated, was valued by the Insurance Companies as so much waste paper. It was stated that the Warehouse-keepers were the only parties that the bill bore hard upon ; the Warehouse-owner, the merchant, and the porter were relieved from those clauses which were considered hardships. Arrangements were made to send witnesses, and money subscribed to meet their expenses, and that of the deputation. FIRE AT BIRKENHEAD.—On Tuesday night last, about twelve o'clock, an alarm of fire was given at the Town hall, Birkenhead, and the new engine with which the town has recently been provided was immediately sent out, un der Mr. Bowie, superintendent of the night watch, and soon reached the spot, a newly-built and yet unfinished house, in Market -street, belonging to Mr. Rae, painter and gilder. The doors and windows of the premises were found to be nailed up, so that an entrance could not easily be effected. The doors ware, however, soon forced open, and the fire, which had begun below, and was rapidly in creasing, was got under by hand buckets. The police remained for about an hour. The damage to the wood work, &c. amounts to about £l2. Besides the nailing up of the doors, there were other indications plainly showing that the premises had been designedly fired. No clue has been found to the party or parties. The house was in sured by the London Fire Assurance Comp - my, of which Mr. Kennedy, Hamilton-square, Birkenhead, is agent. THE FUNDS, SATURDAY EVENING.—The market for the public securities has not exhibited any new feature to-day, and quotations remain much as before. A con tinuance of fine weather appears to be the chief support of the government stocks. Consols for money and the account left off 91* to 1; Three per Cents.

The foreign securities underwent little alteration. Spanish was a trifle flatter. The Actives clo se d 183 to 182 ; and the Three per C en t s ., 258; Mexican left o ff 341 t o 35i for the Five p er C en t s ., and 91 to 101 for the Deferred.

ST kTE OF TRADE, MANUFACTURES, &C.—We have again hadan active week in our cotton market, the buy ers being principally for consumption, and the prices fully supporting those of last week. The sales amount to 28,590 bales, of which 6,600 American are on speculators' account, and 750 American, 600 Pernam, and 350 Surat for export. In the cotton manufacturing districts busi ness has been a little interrupted by the turn-out amongst the spinners and weavers in the neighbourhood of Ashton under•Lyne. A fair amount of business has, however, been done in the principal staples ; and this seem scarcely so much to be attributed to the diminished supply, arising by the stoppage of upwards of 20 mills, and the conse quent cessation from labour of more than 12,000 opera tives, as to the actual healthy proportion of demand to the supply of most kind of goods. The turn-out is ex pected very shortly to be arranged ; and really it ought to be arranged, by an agreement on the part of the masters in Ashton and the . neighbourhood, t o pay t h e prices cur rent in other places, for it is a fact that, owing to the low p m r a ic n e ufa o e f tu t r h e e r r: , w as material, nevera tthleeasto flate—more marginopro than a fittothe t the present period. CHARGE FORGERY. —On Wdnesday last a young man named Thomas G. Rigby, stat e ed to be a and builder, was brought before the sitting magistrates, at the Police-court, on a charge of having uttered a bill with a forged signature. Police -officer Lloyd said, that on the previous afternoon Mr. Smith, chemist and druggist, Great Homer -street, came to him, and said he had re ceived a bill for £47 55., to which his name was forged. Having learned that it had been paid to another party previously by the prisoner, he (witness) apprehended him. A memorandum (relating, it appeared, to other money transactions, and found in the prisoner's pocket) was produced by Lloyd, but Mr. Wardle objected to it being read, as it did not bear upon the present charge. Mr. Smith said he received the bill on Tuesday, from Mr. Pritchard, who said he had received it from the prisoner. The signature to the acceptance, purporting to be signed by him, (witness,) was not in his handwriting, and he had not authorised the prisoner so to make use of his name. The signature was something like his (witness's) writing. He could not take upon himself to swear that the signa ture to the acceptance was in the same handwriting as that to the bill, which was the prisoner's. Mr. John Pritchard said he was a timber merchant, in partnership with his brother. The prisoner had had transactions with them, and on Tuesday he tendered him the bill, in part payment of his account. It was dated in May last. It was sent to the Union Bank, where it was dishonoured. The pri soner, it afterwards appeared, was apprehended in his house in Bootle. Th e pr i soner , on b e i ng asked, w i th the usual caution, wh a t h e h a d to say, declined saying any thing at this stage of the proceedings, and was committed to take his trial at the assizes, the witnesses being bound over, in XlO3 each, to appear and give evidence against him. f death ofd' WO 00 t hIS no Samuel lt i s w p i e t h r r great e r n e t g f r o e r t t t h h e a t we t v recordofD b. t b a c ti se in DEATH OF MR.
