Y JAMES STONEHOUSI (From the Belle Assemble - e. I Oh ! after all this lapse of time More fair to me you seem, Than when around the spell you threw Of first love's happy dream. The worldly hearts that parted us Were cold to all our pain, They little thought the time would come When we should meet again. But, tell me, do you love me still? And all my doubts dismiss ; Those tears more welcome are than words At such a time as this. I've thought of peaceful wanderings When you were by my side ; I've pictured you in jealous thought Another's gentle bride; But, as the constant river pours Its waters to the sea, I've buoyed my spirit with the hope That you were true to me. Then, tell me, do you love me still ? And all my doubts dismiss ; Ziles more welcome are than words such a time as t How oft my heart's warm pulse bath beat, When, 'midst a micthful throng, I've heard the notes of some sweet voice, Like your's, burst into song. Then garlands vanished, faces fled, And all escaped from view ; The well known strain bath born me back To other scenes with you. ;en, tell me, do you love me still ? And all my fears dismiss ; 1! tears and smiles speak more than words At such a time as this. WOMAN. 'ibed to Me Loveliest of their Sex, M- and S• 'OR THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.)

The victims are stolen from the low country, or are brought from some other distant part, and sold to those mootas where the sacrifices are performed. If children, they are kept until they attain a proper age. This cruel ceremony is thus per formed :—Wnen the appointed day arrives, the Khunds as semble from all parts of the country, dressed in their finery, some with bear-skins thrown over their shoulders, others with the tails of peacocks flowing behind them, and the long winding feather of the jungle cock waving on their heads. Thus decked out they dance, leap, and rejoice, beating drums and playing on an instrument not unlike in sound to the Highland pipe. Soon after noon the jani, or presiding priest, with the aid of his assistants, fastens the unfortunate victim to a strong post, which has been firmly fixed into the ground, and the re s t an di ng erect , h e su ff ers th e cruel torture of having his flesh cut from his bones in small pieces by the knives of the savage crowd, who rush on him and contend for a porti on . with each other Great value is attached to the first morsel cut from the ctim's body, for it is supposed to possess greater virtues, id a proportionate eagerness is evinced to obtain it ; but insiderable danger to the p apperis also that equal of the operator attends the feat, for it ofl, ia virtues are attributed to ' '' lucky holder reeable an the first slice.

Women are sacrificed as well as men. wretchec We regret to hear that the heavy and long-continued rains which we have experienced almost to the present hour have seriously damaged the potato crops in this neighbourhood, which are to a considerable extent, rotted in the ground. — Bah Chronicle. FAILURES AT GLASGOW. — We regret to learn by letters from Glasgow, that there have been within a short period three commercial failures in that city. The first, on Satur day week, was a commission• house connected with North America ; liabilities estimated at £-10,000. The cause as signed was the want of remittances by the Britannia. A con siderable portion of this sum is due to that devoted town, Paisley. The second was a calico-printing concern, on Sa turday last—not in extensive business. The third and most important took place on Monday last. It was in the shipping and commission business, and the liabilities are estimated at from £40,000 to 60,000. The failure was unexpected, and the cause assigned is over investment in West India produce. —Morning Chronicle. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—For a long series of years we have not been called on to record a more extensive and more de structive conflagration in Glasgow than that which occurred, on Wednesday night, at the Lancefield Company's cotton spinning works, the property of Messrs. Wm. and Alexander Graham and Co., of this city. A very large portion of these works, known to be the most extensive of the kind in Scot land, have, by a sudden and awful calamity, been laid in ruins, the valuable machinery which they contained entirely destroyed, and several hundreds of poor and industrious people thrown out of employment, to add to the sad amount of destitution and misery which is already too widely preva lent in our city and its neighbourhood. It is impossible to estimate, as yet, aright, the loss which has been sustained by the partial destruction of these works. We ,believe, how ever, we are not below the mark when we state that it can not be less than £30,000; and we are happy to hear that the loss will be more than covered by the insurance. From 300 to 400 people will, however, be thrown out of employment ; and it is here that the greatest misery connected with the catastrophe lies. STATE OF TRADE.—PAISLEY. — During the whole sum mer, hopes have always been entertained, that the week or month to come would bring along with it a more favourable change of circumstances : these hopes, it will be observed, are now over, and the relief committee are making earnest preparations for the worst. As a sample of the sufferings of part of our population, we can state the else of one family which has been investigated into, and found living on nothing but potatoes, and by begging herring brine from the shops as the only thing they can obtain to relish their scanty and wersh morsel. The family consists of a father, mother, and two children; and the residence is in Causeyside. It has been proposed, that the Provost of Paisley, and others to be named, should be appointed as a committee to wait upon those persons in the town and county who are able, but who have not hitherto subscribed to the relief fund. 2d, That a deputation be immediately despatched to London to solicit the assistance of government—to endeavour to obtain part of the London relief fund, raised in 1826—and generally to pro cure subscriptions in the metropolis for relief of the dis tressed operatives of this county.—Glasgow Chronicle. DISCOVERY OF A SUPPOSED MURDER COMMITTED THREE YEARS AGO—EXAMINATION OF THE ACCUSED. —Lewes, Thursday.—The magistrates of Lewes have been for come time past engaged in investigating a murder said to have been committed three years back, and several private examinations have taken place. It appears that the deceased was a woman named Hannah Devonshire, alias Smith, aged 42, who was in the habit of travellinc , the country with lace, tapes, &c. On the 2d June, 1838, she was in Ringmer, a small village near Lewes, drinking with several men, and the following morning was found drowned, under the circum stances detailed below. A coroner's inquest was held at the time, and the open verdict of " found drowned," returned, leaving the case for further investigation. Mr. Fagan, the superintendent of the East Sussex constabulary, has been for some time past actively engaged in collecting evidence, and on Monday last apprehended a man named General Washer, a dealer at Ringmer. After undergoing a short examination, he was remanded for the attendance of the numerous wit nesses until this day. After evidence had been adduced as to the finding of the body, and the fact of the prisoner and the deceased having been seen drinking together the day be fore the woman's body was discovered, and also, that the prisoner had been seen, later on the same night, lurking about the fields in the direction which the deceased had taken to go to Lewes, William Smith deposed that he resided at Lewes, and had lived with the deceased for six years and a half as man and wife. She was 43 years of age, and witness was 66. On the 2d June, 1838, the deceased left home about six o'clock in the morning, taking with her a basket con taining about nine or ten shillings worth of goods, and a new pack on her back. She had also a snuff-box and a pair of spectacles. Witness did not know whether she had anv money. Witness went towards Ringmer to meet her, and waited upwards of an hour, and then returned home about eight o'clock. Witness heard of her death about eleven o'clock the next morning, and received her clothes and va rious articles. There .were only three small wooden boxes, and two tin pots worth about three halfpence each, left in the basket. A thimble was all that was found in her pocket. The pack, which was quite new, had two holes cut in it. Witness was positive the deceased had her spectacles and her snuff-box at the time she left home. The prisoner, after being cautioned by the noble chairman, denied allknowledge of the affair, and said he - was never in the company of the de ceased until the day in question, and being a fine night, he was sauntering about smoking a pipe. The prisbner was then remanded for further examination until Monday next, when some important evidence respecting the spectacles is expected to be adduced. The examination lasted upwards of seven hours. LAMENTABLE OCCURRENCE. — For the last three or four days a most painful degree of excitement has prevailed in Sheerness, Queenborough, and Chatham, in consequence of the report that an old seaman, 56 years of age, belonging to her majesty's ship Wellington, lying in ordinary in the Medway, near the royal dockyard, had been killed by a war rant-officer of the same vessel. It appears, that on Thurs day last, being pay-day, several boats came ashore from the different ships in the river. Amongst them was the crew of the Wellington, under the command of Mr. Ward, the warrant-officer. There were with them three women (the wife and daughter of Ward, and the wife of one of the crew named Sheppard.) There were two other seamen, named Kingdom, and a boy, besides Maxwell, the unfortunate de ceased. After the receipt of their pay, they all proceeded to the Fountain Tavern, situate near the pier. They remained drinking until after dark, with the exception of Maxwell and the boy. On leaving the inn at a late hour, they were scarcely able to walk to the ship's boat, then lying off the pier. They managed to crawl into it, and it was put off, Ward taking charge of the tiller ; Maxwell, Kingdom, Sheppard, and the boy manned the oars. The boat, instead of being steered down the river towards the spot where the Wellington was moored, was steered across, and raa ashore. Maxwell, find ing this was the case, and being sober, offered to take charge of the tiller, saying, " Master, you had better let me steer for you." Ward, with an oath, replied, "If you think you can steer better than me, you had better come and do it." Maxwell got up for the purpose of going to the tiller, when the boat ran aground. Ward swore at Maxwell, declaring, that it would not have happened if he had not made himself so officious. Maxwell made some reply, when Ward snatched up one of the stretchers of the boat, and struck Maxwell a violent blow with it on the face, which knocked him down. Maxwell got up, and a scuffle ensued, in the midst of which Ward pulled out a large clasp-knife, and rushing towards him swore, " he would rip his b-y ' guts up." Maxwell, to avoid the blow, sprang towards the gunwale of the boat, and perceiving Ward following him, jumped overboard, and was seen no more. He was unable to swim. The statements of the crew differ materially, but the boy declares that Maxwell was knocked overboard by the blow on the head by the stretcher, whilst others say he was swept away by the sea on jumping over. The boy, however, was the only one sober, except the deceased. Although orders have not yet been received from the Admiralty with respect to Ward, the warrant-officer, it is expected, should the body not be found, that he will be tried by a special court ' martial for drunkenness and disobedience of orders, and afterwards be delivered over to the civil authorities of Sheerness. - HORRID MURDER AT DARFIELD, NEAR BARNSLEY. — It is our painful duty to lay before oar readers the following particulars connected with one of the most diabolical and coolly-premeditated murders that has ever been committed in this part of the country. What renders the event, if possible, more shocking, is the fact that the unfortunate vic tim was assassinated by mistake, owing, it is supposed, to his being in age, appearance, and dress, very similar to the person marked out for the murderers' dreadful pursese. The deceased was a young man of the name of Thomas Depledge, about 21 years of age, and was a farming servant in the service of Mr. Timothy Heptenstall, of Billingley, near Darfield. The murder was committed on the turnpike road between those two places, and very near the cross roads leading from Darfield to Doncaster, Pontefract, and Rother ham. It appears, that on the night of Monday last, two boat-haulers, named Joseph and William Lodge, residing at Wombwell, were returning from Barnsley fair ; and when they had got as far as Measbrough Hill, a short distance from Barnsley, they became engaged in a quarrel with two men, named Marsden and Mills, who were walking on the road. Joseph Lodge got off his horse, and attacked the two men ; giving one a severe bite on the cheeek, and almost biting the lingers off the hand of the other. He received himself some very severe scratches and bruises, which seem to have ex asperated him, and roused him to a determination of deadly revenge. Marsden and Mills having picked up the hat which Joseph Lodge had lost in the scuffle, proceeded on their road home. and called at the Ring of Bells public-house at Dar field Bridge, where they met with Thomas Depledge and some companions, who were also returning from the fair. In the meantime, the two Lodges, who are brothers, had gone back to Barnsley, evidently with the intention of collecting a force for the purpose of assisting in their re vengeful purpose. They called with their companions, one of whom was a nephew named John Lodge, at all the beer-houses and public-houses on the road ; and at length, their friends having left them, the three Lodges en tered the public-house at Darfield-bridge, where they found Joseph's hat on the table, and saw the two men with whom they had quarrelled. Some suspicious expliesions fell from them there ; and they were perceived to be watching for Marsden and Mills leaving the house. Some evil purpose was so apparent, that Mills was strongly advised not to leave the house that night. At length, however, Marsden and Mills, along with Depledge and severalothers, left the house, and proceeded homewa:ds, towards Billingley. When they had got to the Milnhouses, a short distance from Darfield, the two former went forward before the others. At the cross roads they had gained ground a good deal ; and near this place, Depledge, it Is supposed, in consequence of hearing footsteps behind, and wishful to apprise the men of some danger, left his friends, and proceeded forward at a quicker pace. Joseph and William Lodge then came up, spoke to the party behind, and walked sharply past. One was in his shirt sleeves, which were doubled up, and carried a large hedge stake. Whan they had gone about one hundred yards further, a very severe blow was heard by those who were in the rear. They hastened forward, and found their comp anion PPledge lying bleeding on the road. On raising him up , he Immediately expired. His mouth and nose were bleeding , blow profusely, on thaend face,i t w w as hi found a d broken thathe h thead received bones of ahidsrenaodsfeul, and co e m ou p y le e t y e e ll b latte ne d it.

It is to be hoped that there is no sufficient authority for this statement, but the " factious tone of his lordship's speeches since the open ing of the session agrees wonderfully with its tenour. TRADE or• LEEDS, OCT. 16.—The demand for woollen cloths in the Piece Halls at Leeds on Saturday last was as brisk as has been known on any market day for some time past, and on Tuesday also the improvement was sustained. Nor were the sales confined to one description of goods ; extensive purchases of the higher qualities of cloths for ex portation were made, as well as of the darker and heavier kinds of woollens for domestic consumption. PROVIDENTIAL ESCAPE. — We regret to state that an ac cident occurred at Waldridge Colliery, two miles west of Chester-le-Street, about nine o'clock on Thursday morning, by the breaking into the mine of a large quantity of water. Between 60 and 70 men and boys were below when the rush of water took place, but they were fortunately enabled to effect their retreat into some old workings, from which they were afterwards safely brought to the bank. Their escape may be considered as truly providential.—Tyne Mercury. MELANCHOLY CASE.—On Tuesday evening, an old man, who said he came from the Isle of Man, and complained that lie was in want of food, was allowed to enter a stable in Cum berland-street, to sleep on some straw. In the morning he was found dead. On Wednesday morning, an old woman, a cinder gatherer, fell down in Princes-street, She was taken up by the police; and died while being carried to the office. Both bodies were unclaimed on Wednesday night.—Edin burgh Post. We are rejoiced to see by the last Gazette that the gallant bearing of the officers of both services in the late operations before Canton have not gone unrewarded. Sir Hugh Gough receives the Grand Cross of the Bath, Captain Herbert is appointed a Knight Commander, and Colonel Burrell and Lieutenant-Colonels Morris, Adams, Mountain, and Pratt, are nominated companions of the same honourable order. Of the naval officers employed, Lieutenants Chambers, Coryton, Hayes, Hamilton, and Wood, are promoted to the rank of commander; while Messrs. Bryan, Sanlez, Need, Miller, Tayler, Purver, and Bate are appointed lieutenants. IMPORTANT NEWS FROM SPAIN.—The Paris journals of Monday, which arrived at a late hour on Thursday, com municated the important intelligence of a disturbance, amounting almost to an insurrection at Madrid, and an at tempt to carry off the young Queen, with a view to release her from the authority of the Regent. The attempt was un successful, but great fears were entertained for the peace of the Spanish capital. It would appear that the movement is extending in the Basque provinces, and the French govern ment has issued an order for the removal of all the Carlist refugees to some distance from Spanish frontier, proof, if any were wanting, that Louis Philippe and M. Guizot are guiltless of a correspondence with the movement party.— Standard. THE LATE LORD SYDENHAM. — We are assured that Lord Sydenham's death was occasioned by a combination of gan grene, spasmodic gout, and lockjaw. He died after agony prolonged for two weeks. One account of his sufferings, which we have seen, is so terrible that we should not have mentioned them, except for the purpose of stating with what noble fortitude they were endured by him. It seems that a perfect self-command never abandoned him. In the midst of torments that those around him shuddered to behold, his attention to business was collected and regular, and he left nothing undone belonging to that first session of the first parliament of United Canada which closed precisely along with his life. He was fully aware of his own state, and he made his will and took leave of his suite and servants with cheerful composure. He knew how entirely his constitution was broken, and it looks as if he had courted death there, then, and so, as the most desirable of possible events.—Co lonial Gazette. THE BANK or MANCHESTER. —A general and very numerous meeting of the shareholders of this bank took place on Wednesday last, but, as reporters were excluded, the information must be limited. The following figures may, however, be relied upon :—The profits of the year, up to June, 1841, were £50,000, and for which a dividend of 5 per cent., amounting to £37,000, was ordered to be paid,—thus leaving £13,000. It was stated that there was the sum of £36,602 reserved from the profits of the years 1838-9, which, together, made £49,602, and that this sum was to meet any contingencies that might arise. The contingencies of the year, in the form of bad debts, amounted, by estimate, to £31,000, (not including any since June last,) so that there was still £lB,OOO to be carried to the reserved fund. The paid-up capital is £741,000, and the number of proprietors 515. Three of the retiring directors were re-elected, viz., John Brown, Samuel Prince, and J. C. Dyer, Esqrs. The only new director was John Potter, Esq., son of Sir Thomas Potter. BISHOPRIC OF JERUSALEM.—A Protestant Bishopric is about to be established at Jerusalem. In this good work the King of Prussia, who takes a deep interest in the Jewish people, cordially concurs with our church, and the expense of the undertaking is to be borne in no inconsiderable degree by that admirable prince. The bishopric was first tendered to Dr. M'Caul, the well-known Hebrew scholar ; but he de clined, simply on the plea, that, in his judgment, a Jew ought to be raised to the episcopate. In conformity with this view of the subject, the office was proposed to, and has been ac cepted by, Mr. Alexander, the well-known Hebrew Pro fessor, in King's College. Our readers are aware that Mr. Alexander is a converted Jew—that for many years he has borne a consistent Christian character, vindicating the integ rity of his conversion to the Christian faith, and that he is highly esteemed for his li,erary acquirements, as well as his high-toned piety. The choice is one fitted to give universal satisfaction. Mr. Alexander, we understand, will be conse crated to this high and most interesting office by the Arch bishop of Canterbury. The present emoluments of the see will be £1,200 a-year ; and it has been arranged that, in the progress and furtherance of the work, not only shall the Bishop of Jerusalem consecrate English clergymen, duly qua lified, but olso Germans, who subscribe, as the confession of their faith, the Augsburg Confession. In short, it would appear, the whole enterprise has been conceived and advanced in a true spirit of enlarged Christian charity and brotherly love, the further extension of which is to be greatly desired. WANTON DAMAGE IN SOWERBY BRIDGE CHURCH. — On Thursday night some scoundrels sacrilegiously broke into the church at Sowerby Bridge, Yorkshire, and committed the most flagrant spoliation in it. They entered the vestry at the west end of the church by taking out a diamond in the window containing sixteen small panes, after which they proceeded to a closet in the vestry in which a surplice was hanging ; this they tore in pieces ; an umbrella which was also in the closet shared the same fate. They then proceeded to the font in the ante-church. The font which was built of stoise, they took in three pieces, which they seem to have carefully laid down, for no part of it was otherwise injured. The bowl which was a leaden one they bent and placed on a bench. They then proceeded up the north aisle to the pul pit, the stair-railing of which they broke at the lower part. Entering the pulpit they tore open the cushion and strewed the feathers down the steps and on the pews adjoining ; and then broke off the gas apparatus. After this the communion table appeared to have been the next object of their violence, the cloth being torn in tatters, and the cushions belonging the table were also destroyed. They then proceeded to the reading-desk the stair-railing of which they also broke. The large prayer book they tore completely in two at the middle, and the backs were severed from it. The large bible was also greatly mutilated, and the backs torn off. The carpeting of the steps was also torn, and the gas apparatus broken down, and the velvet cloth destroyed, and left hanging in tatters. A reward of £2O has been offered for the depredators. SINGULAR AND EXTENSIVE RUBBERY.-Mr. W. Baker, a highly respectable maltster, in Statten-street, in this city, has been a victim, in an amount exceeding £7OO, to the fol lowing nefarious scheme of depredation. Mr. Baker has a clerk, James Rees, who, with his wife, resides on the pre mises. They have a son, John Rees, aged about eighteen, who sometimes slept in the shop. In Mr. Baker's counting house is a strong iron safe, the upper part of which forms shelves for ledgers, &c., and below these is a drawer (having a lock) in which is kept the cash box. Some time ago the key of this drawer was missing, which excited some surprise in Mr. Baker ; but a new key was made, which he always since kept in his possession. Some weeks after this hap pened, Mr. Baker, on coming to his office in the morning, fonnd the door of the safe perforated above the lock, and the lock removed. He inquired of Rees, sen., how this happened ; who answered that, on applying the key to the lock, which he supposed must have been tampered with, he found the key would not work ; and he had sent to a lock smith, who informed him that it was necessary to remove the lock, which could only be done by perforating the door, in order to rectify the key. In a few days the lock and key were returned, and Mr. Baker was astonished at finding that the old, and formerly rusty, key appeared bright and new. Rees said he supposed the locksmith had polished it up. On Monday morning last, Rees, sen., on going to the office, found the safe door open, with the old key in it; the drawer open ; the cash-box gone ; and his own son non est. The cash-box contained £BO in gold, £36 in bank notes, and about £7OO in checks and negotiable bills. He immediately mentioned the state of the safe to his wife, who took the rusty key out of the safe, and broke it in pieces. (Together with young Rees is missing a boy named Jefferies : it is sup posed they are confederates, and gone to London.) Rees, sen., after this, locked the safe with the new key, and sat down at his desk. When Mr. Baker arrived, some time after, he had occasion to go to his cash-box, and then disco vered the robbery. " Rees," said he, " somebody has stolen the cash-box," " The cash-box, sir ?" said Rees with great earnestness, affecting to know nothing of the matter.

CONSERVATIVES LOOK ABOUT You! —The whigs are very fond of declaiming against fagot voters, but they are never loth to resort to the use when they will promote their po litical ends. Whilst the conservatives h ave b een qu i etly res ti n g upon their oars , the whigs have been zealously and w hi g voters for the West Riding ; and to this is o w i ng the great advantag e which that p art y h as gained upon the turing steadily a t work, since the registration of 1840,,i n manutac revision now going on. It appears from the tabular state ment in another column, that although the conservatives made a much fewer number of objec er tions, they have suc ceeded in striking off a much largnumber of improper claimants than the whigs have done. Their sucesss is, how ever, neutralised by the great number of new claims sent in by the whigs. As a specimen of the way in which the whigs manage these matters we transcribe the following notification which has been sent to us printed in glaring red letters on the back of a postage stamped envelope. Every conserva tive possessing the means ought to qualify his son or cousin, or nephew, or friend, as a voter, without delay, in order to counteract the machinations of our political opponents. Here is the notice. " REPRESENTATION OF THE WEST RIDING. " GISBURN DISTRICT.

A rev. rector in a Durham parish, on Sunday, the 26th September, gave out his text, then suddenly stopped, as if he had forgotten some very important matter, and said " There will be divine service on St. Michael's-Say, (Wed nesday); but as it is commonly known to be Michaelmas day, therefore I do not think that many will attend, as that is a day on which the landlords always expect their rents." — [We presume that the landlords, who are described by this anonymous sneerer to be so exact to the day in their demand for rent, are the whig landholders of Durham.] France, it is calculated, produces 1860 millions of gallons of wine, worth nearly 1000 millions of francs a year, or £40,000,000 sterling ; and about twenty-five millions of gallons of brandy and spirits, worth about two francs per gallon, besides vinegar. In the preparation of these articles of consumption about three millions of people are employed. The vineyards near Bordeaux yield a million of hogsheads of wine, of which 100,000 are converted into brandy. The red sorts, on the spot, from 2000 to 3000 per ton of 4 hogsheads.

TRIAL OF WARREN HASTINGS --- (Franc the Edinburgh Review.) sergeants made proclamation. pasting ; advanced to the bar, and bent his knee. The culprit was indeed not un worthy of that great presence. He had ruled an extensive and populous country, had made laws and treaties, had sent forth armies, had set up and pulled down princes. And in his high place he had so borne himself, that all had feared him, that most had loved him, and that hatred itself could deny him no title to glory, except virtue. He looked like a great man, and not like a bad man. A person small and emaciated, yet deriving dignity from a carriage which, while it indicated deference to the court, indicated also habitual self-possession and self-respect ;—a high and intellectual forehead ;—a brow pensive, but not gloomy •,—a mouth of inflexible decision ;—a face pale and worn, but serene, on which was written, as legibly as under the great picture in the council-chamber at Calcutta, Mens cequa in arduis ; such was the aspect with which the great proconsul presented himself to his judges. His counsel accompanied him, men all of whom were after wards raised by their talent and learning to the highest posts in their profession—the bold and strong-minded Law, after wards Chief Justice of the King's Bench ; the more humane and eloquent Dallas, afterwards Chief Justice of the Com mon Pleas ; and Plomer, who, nearly twenty years later, successfully conducted in the same high court the defence of Lord Melville, and subsequently became Vice-Chancellor and Master of the Rolls. But neither the culprit nor his advocates attracted so much notice as the accusers. In the midst of the blaze of red dra pery, a space had been fitted up with green benches and tables for the Commons. The managers, with Burke at their head, appeared in full dress. The collectors of gossip did not fail to remark that even Fox, generally so regardless of his appearanae, had paid to the illustrious tribunal the com pliment of wearing a bag and sword. Pitt had refused to be one of the conductors of the impeachment; and his com manding, copious, and sonorous eloquence was wanting to. that great muster of various talents. Age and blindness had. unfitted Lord North for the duties of a public prosecutor; and his friends were left without the help of his excellent sense, his tact, and his urbanity. But, in spite of the ab sence of these two distinguished members of the lower house. the box in which the managers stood contained an array of speakers such as perhaps had not appeared together since the great age of Athenian eloquence. There stood Fox and'. Sheridan, the English Demosthenes, and the English Hy perides. There was Burke, ignorant, indeed, or negligent of the art of adapting his reasonings and his style to the ca pacity and taste of his hearers ; but in amplitude of compre hension and richness of imagination superior to every ora tor, ancient or modern. There, with eyes reverentially fixed on Burke, appeared the finest gentleman of the age — his form developed by every manly exercise—his face beaming with intelligence and spirit—the ingenious, the chivalrous. the high-souled Windham. Nor, though surrounded by such men, did the youngest manager pass unnoticed. At an age when most of those who distinguish themselves in life are still contending for prizes and fellowships at college, he had. won for himself a conspicuous place in Parliament. No ad vantage of fortune or connection was Wanting that could set off to the height his splendid talents and his unblemished. honour. At twenty-three he had been thought worthy to be ranked with the veteran statesmen who appeared as the dele gates of the British commons at the bar of the British no bility. All who stood at that bar, save him alone, are gone — culprit, advocates, accusers. To the generation which is now in the vigour of life, he is the sole representative of a great age which has passed away. But those who, within the last ten years, have listened with delight, till the morning sun shone on the tapestries of the House of Lords, to the lofty and animated eloquence of Charles Earl Grey, are able to form some estimate of the powers of a race of men among whom he was not the foremost. The charges and the answers of Hastings were first read. This ceremony occupied two whole days, and was rendered less tedious than it would otherwise have been, by the silver voice and just emphasis of Cowper, the clerk of the court, a near relation of the amiable poet. On the third day Burke rose: Four sittings of the court were occupied by his opening speech, which was intended to be a general intro duction to all the charges. With an exuberance of thought and a splendour of diction which more than satisfied the highly-raised expectation of the audience, he described the character and institutions of the natives of India ; recounted the circumstances in which the Asiatic empire of Britain had originated ; and set forth the constitution of the company, and of the English presidencies. Having thus attempted to communicate to his hearers an idea of Eastern society, as vivid as that which existed in his own mind, he proceeded to arraign the administration of Hastings, as systematically conducted in defiance of morality and public law. The energy and pathos of the great orator extorted expressions of unwonted admiration, even from the stern and hostile Chancellor—and, for a moment, seemed to pierce even the resolute heart of the defendant. The ladies in the galleries, unaccustomed to such displays of eloquence, excited by the solemnity of the occasion and perhaps not unwilling to dis play their taste and sensibility, were in a state of uncontroll able emotion. Handkerchiefs were pulled out, smelling-bot tles were handed round, hysterical sobs and screams were heard, and Mrs. Sheridan was carried out in a fit. At length the orator concluded. Raising his voice till the old arches of Irish oak resounded,—" Therefore," said he, " hath it with all confidence been ordered by the Commons of Great Britain, that! impeach Warren Hastings of the high crimes and misdemeanonrs. I impeach him in the names of the Commons House of Parliament, whose trust he has betrayed. I impeach him in the name of the English nation, whose an cient honour he has sullied. I impeach him in the name of the people of India, whose rights he has trodden under foot, and whose country he has turned into a desert. Lastly, in the name of human nature itself, in the name of both sexes, in the name of every age, in the name of every rank, I im peach the common enemy and oppressor of all !

Our arrivals of Wheat are large to-day, a good portion of which is New ; for the latter the sale is very difficult, and, where pressed, rather lower prices must be taken; Old, on the contrary, is Is per quarter dearer than on this day se'nnight. Fine Barley fetches as much money, but our malsters pay no attention to other sorts. Oats and Shellings are rather higher. Beans steady. No variation in other articles. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 18. The actual consumptive demand for Butter continues trilling ; at the same time we may state that holders are very generally con fident that prices will not be lower for the residue of the season ; our last quotations are therefore fully supported. We notice some improvement in the pickled Butter market, and are of opi n i on that . an advance of is to 2s per cwt. pretty commonly obtainable. There is not any visible alteration in the currency or consumption of barrelled provisions. A tew small lots of new Bacon have ap peared, for which sss to 60s is asked. LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, OCTOBER 15. (From the Circular of Messrs. Dawson 4- Hance.) Our public sales of Colonial and other Wools commenced yes terday and closed this evening, and although there was a con siderable attendance of the trade, yet we marked the absence of many influential buyers. The New South Wales Wools sold with tolerable spirit, but de cidedly lower than in our August sales, or in the London sales of last month. The other descriptions of Foreign Wool went off very languidly, and for the most part, muck lower than the rates, which have been for some time obtained by private contract. The best qualities of East India and Buenos Ayres Wools ob tained full rates, whilst the inferior burry and seedy descriptions of both, realised prices, which in many instances will not cover even freight and charges. This result must direct attention to the washing, cleaning and picking of the Wool before shipment, which alone will render these wools profitable to the importers and more agreable to both brokers and consumers. We do not recollect so large a collection of trash being offered for sale at any period, its character may be estimated from our quo tations and the langour which prevaded the room as soon as the sale of the fine Wools terminated. 1576 bales Australian and 435 bales Tasmanian, prime combing, none—fair is 6d to Is get 'l,l , lb., ordinary Is 4d to is 6d—low Is Id to is 3d—fine clothing, none—middling is 3d to Is Bd—ordinary is 3d to Is Sd—low and in grease 6d to 11d—skins llid to Is 6d — lambs Is 3d to Is lid—locks Ild to is 4d. 35 bales Cape, low and in grease 6d to I id. 12 bales German Is aid to Is 7d. 139 bales Italian, chiefly withdrawn, a few lots gid to Itad. 1192 bales Bnenos Ayres, washsd Merino, picked gid. to 13id— burry 5d to Sd and 114 d—ordinary burry lid_ to ad—in grease aid to sd. 34 bales Odessa, brookwashed Is 4d to is sd. 1619 bales East India, white bid to Sid, yellow aid to.

The duty on Foreign Wheat has advanced to 20s. Bd., on Pease to ss. per quarter, on Flour to 12s. sd. per barrel. and upon all other Foreign Grain is increased one step over the rates payable in the week ending yesterday. The impost on British Colonial Wheat is now ss. per quarter, and on Flour 3s. per barrel. The arrivals from abroad continue moderate ; those from Ireland are a little on the increase, and we have to notice since Tuesday several thousand quarters of Wheat coastwise, which will shortly be followed by a fair supply of this Grain now on the passage from London ; the latter, however, is not likely to be repeated, in any material quantity, for the pre sent at least. The general transactions within the past two days have been rather unimportant, though we cannot state any dimi nution of firmness on the part of holders, and prices have been very fully supported for all articles of the trade, the ad vancing duties and the decrease which a large demand has effected in our stocks of Wheat and Flour during the last few weeks, giving a very steady tone to the market, which a continuance of wet and cold weather, as advised from various parts of the country, has also tended to strengthen. This morning we have had a limited attendance of buyers, and the sales of Wheat on a corresponding scale, though at the full currency of Tuesday, except for new Irish parcels, which, from their inferior condition, are offered 2d to 3d per bushel cheaper, with little effect. Flour was in fair request at the rates of Tuesday. Little passing in Beans and Peas to-day, and the value unaltered. In Oats scarcely any business occurred, but they are held steadily for late prices. Since our last several purchases of Oatmeal have been made for keeping over, and the value of both new and old may be stated 6d per load higher. LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, OCT. 15 Sugar= There has again been an extensive business in all des criptions, and rather higher prices have been generally obtained. The sales are 1400 hhds. 11. P., 9600 bags Bengal, one-half good Khaur at about 455. and the remainder good and fine white at 725 to 73s 66 per cwt , and 1000 bags Mauritius at the quotations. In Foreign no sales are reported. Bonded Refined.—Several small parcels of Loaves and Crushed have been taken at the quotations., and 100 puns. of Treacle at 100. Molasses have been in good de mand, and prices have advanced for the better kinds Is per cwt. ; the sales amount to 700 casks, Antigua and Barbados at 275 to 280, St. Vincent and Grenada at 23s to 24s per cwt. The transaction , : in B. P. Coffee consist of 180 tees. Jamaica, at steady prices for all descriptions, say low black Triage 12s, up to 146 s for fine middling. and for 50 bags Mocha gas was obtained. 300 bags Brazil have been taken for export at 35s to 420, and 350 bags very ordinary East India (damaged) at 24s 66 to 275. 10 tons Malabar Ginger brought 130. Nothing done in Cocoa or Pimento. 1700 bags black Pepper, chiefly damaged, sold at 2d to 3ird per lb. 1800 bags Bengal Rice at lOs 66 to 121 66 per cwt. The sales of B. P.

Tea.—The transactions have been limited, and prices remain without alteration. Indigo.—Some small parcels of Bengal sold at Is 8d to Is lid, Madras and Pondecherry at Is 3d to 4s, and Guatimala at 4s 6d. Several public sales have been brought forward, and the following Goods disposed of : viz. 100 chests East India Gum Arabic (all faults) at 4s to 41s, 5 chests Animi at 155 to 15s, 800 bags Bengal Turmeric at 27s Gd to 235, 50 bags Cutch at 14s, and 150 baskets Mother-of-Pearl Shells at 50s ; some damaged Sago and Sago Flour sold at various prices. 700 bags Saltpetre sold at somewhat lower rates, viz. 28s Gd to 30s 6d per cwt., and 400 bags Nitrate of Soda at the quotations. Dyewoods.—The sales of Logwood are 140 tons, at £8 15s for Laguna. and £0 5s for indirect, and small parcels of Jamaica and st. Domingo at previous rates ; in other descriptions of Dyewoods the sales are too trifling to notice. There is a fair demand for Turpentine, and the Trade have taken 2500 brls. of good quality, at 12s 4(1 to 12s 7d, and 200 brls. of choice at 13 2d. No sales re ported in Tar. Montreal Pot Ashes are more saleable, and 300 to 400 brls. have been sold on the spot, and to arrive at 2gs 6d to 3ns. Pearl Ashes are dull at the quotations. Hides.—About 5000 salted Buenos Ayres have been sold at 4d to 4sd for Ox, and 4sd for Cow, 90 dry at 'ad per lb ; 4600 salted Horse at lls to 12s 5d each, and 3200 Bombay Kips at Bld to Bsd per lb for sound dry salted. Tobacco.—A good business has been done, and the sales reach 280 hhds., of which about 60 were for export, and a few for Ireland. Prices firm. The sales in Brimstone are 350 tons, at former prices. 450 bags Sicily new Sumac have been sold at los 6d tolls per cwt. 26 casks red Argols have been disposed of at 31s to 33s for Oporto, and 35s 1 to 360 6d for Naples. Madders and Roots continue neglected. No sales reported in Quercitron Bark. There has been a good demand for Olive Oil, and about 100 tuns have been disposed of during the week ; for Galipoli £BO has been currently paid, and the Dealers are now obtaining £5 to £6 advance on this description. Fish Oils are steady, and pale Seal again rather dearer, although the demand is confined to small qualities; 15 tuns Cod realized £27, and 20 to 30 tuns coloured Seal a little advance on former rates. Linseed Oil has been offered, from the quay, at Is per cwt. reduc -1 tion. Pale Rape is without alteration, but in limited demand. Oil of Turpentine attracts no attention except iu retail parcels, at iithe quotation annexed. Palm Oil.—ln consequence of the arrival of four cargoes this week, buyers have kept back in expectation of , lower prices, but holders generally have shown no disposition to give way, and a cargo of nearly 400 tons, destined for this market, has been totally lost off Holyhead ; the Soap-trade being dull, the sales that have transpired are hardly worth reporting. Hemp and Flax are still dull of sale; about 20 tons Rhine Hemp were sold a little below the quotation, and Petersburg clean has been freely offered, without finding buyers. In Tallow there is little doing; some few transactions have taken place in Petersburg yellow Candle at 48s 3d to 48s 6d, and in Odessa at 48s per cwt., but there is no animation in the market. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 15. Our market was unusually quiet for Friday morning, but the arrival of the Sheridan, from New York, bringing ac ' counts of disturbances on the border, gave a little impetus to it., and fully 4000 bales have been sold, some hundreds on spe culation. The sales of the week are 23,190 bales. Prices very similar to those of Friday last. The arrival of the Halifax steamer is looked for with intense anxiety. COTTON MARKET, OCTOBER 16, The demand for Cotton to-day has been very general and good, many of the holders have withdrawn their stocks, waiting further intelligence by the steamer hourly expected ; this has had rather tightning tendency in prices, and the buyers have in many in tatices paid a little advance on Friday's business. The quantity :sold is estimated at 4000 bales, a few hundred of which are on spe culation account. Nov. 8, R. Brooks, St. Albans, Hertfordshire, grocer—Nov. 6, L.

COTTON MARKET, OCTOBER 18 The non-arrival of the steamer has given rise to a variety of rumour as to cause of detention, which however vague and futile they may prove, have had their effect upon our market, and though the business transacted is not large, yet the demand has been good and more business would have been done at last week's prices, but an id advance has been generally paid, and at this advance the quantity offering is very limited. 600 i) bales have been sold, 1040 of which are American on speculation account. COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT. The market has continued steady throughout the week, and prices are without alteration in any description. At the .public sales to day 1600 Laguira and 2000 Peruvian were offered, when the former were withdrawn for want of bidders, and 50 of the latter were sold at Sid to 6d. Speculators have taken 3000 American and 200 Surat, and Exporters 150 American and 250 Surat. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the Bth to the 14th instant, inclusive.
