How mutely eloquent her speaking eye ! How kindle sweet her glance, her tear, her sigh! 'Each heav'n-born charm is mirror'd in her mind— Each virtue that exalts the human kind. How oft, when anguish ruffles pleasure's calm, She yields the suff'rer consolation's balm ! And, as the gentle dew-drop strength instils, Still gentlier she assuages mortal ills! She is earth's happiness—life's lovely light— In virtue matchless, as in beauty bright ! When Fortune's sun is clouded or may shine, Woman is still less human than divine!

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-day, (Wed nesday); but as it is commonly known to he Mlchaelmas- day,thereforeldo not think that many will attend 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 18r30 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. 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 £lO,OOO. 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 wh'i'ch 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 arc happy to hear that tha 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 olf 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 case 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 TIIE ACCUSED. —Lewes, Thursday.—The magistrates of Lewes have been for some 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 travelling 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 any 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 all knowledge of the affair, and said he WAS 11. V.. in Liao oompony of the a,- ceased until the day in question, and being a fine night, he was sauntering about smoking a pipe. The pristmer 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 LAMENTAULE OCCURRENCE. — For the last three or four days a most pa:.iful degree of excitement has prevailed in Sheerness, Queeuborough, 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 ran 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. — II is our painful duty to lay before our 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 fingers 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 expaesions 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 several others, left the house, and proceeded homewards, 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 sup - posed, 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 hedge stake. W the party behind, and walked sharply past. One was in his shirt sleeves, which were doubled up, and carried a large lying hats 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 companion Depledge• imme •bleeding on the road. On raising him up, he immediately expired. His mouth and nose were bleeding profusely, and it was found that he had received a dreadful and corupletelayeetiawththt,ineehd blow on the f h i a t. d br i o h k e en lif t e l l i e e ss bo b n o e d s y of wa s h t s n nose, m ed i directly after the murLeen ately conveyed by speed, passed a large hedg e companions to Milnhouses.

John Lodge, the ne nt tl ' , had left them at Dar field -bridge. An in9uest was held p o e n w Wednes day, when the jury returned a verdi c t of wilful body on m William Lodge, who were committed, against Joseph and , under the coroner's warrant, to take their trial at the ensuing assizes.— Doecoter Gazette. THIRD EDITION. Staqdarcl-office; Five o'clock The South America, which arrived in the river this after- noon a little after four o'clock, brings intelligence from America to the Ist instant, being four days later than the advices previqusly received Owing, in all probability, to the expectation that the Cale donia would reach this port before the South America, very few papers were brought by the latter vessel. The anxiety to obtain the intelligence was intense : the piers were crowded the whole day. THE NPLEOD CASE, UTICA, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 29 Late last night, and during the whole of this morning, witnesses arrived here in great numbers, both for the prose cution and the prisoner. The survivors of the Patriot army, which was in possession of Navy Island when the Caroline was destroyed, have come, with all the officers of that short lived provisional government of which M`Kenzie was Presi dent pro tem. From Buffalo, Canada. and for a great extent along the frontier, the cry is " still they come." Mr. Bradley and Mr. Gardener, Mr. Spencer's assoeiate counsel for the prisoner, have arrived from Canada with vo lumious testimony, taken under commission, and many wit nesses to sustain his defence, and all parties are now ready to go to trial. It is now, however, well understood that the trial will not commence until Monday next, and, in the mean time, Judge Grindly will clear the calendars, both civil and criminal. It is not at all improbable that the case will occupy twelve or fourteen days. The evidence of those upon the boat, says the Herald, in relation to the identity of M`Leod, is much less conclu sive than of those who swear they saw him go and return with the expedition from the Canada shore. For the defence an alibi, probably unsuccessful, (says the Herald) will be attempted to be proved. Some have en tirely refused to testify. They swear they did riot see M'Leod with the expedition. We judge, continues the Herald, that though a strong case will be made. against Al`Leod, the jury will not agree upon a verdict : but that the trial will show that the destruction of the Carloline was wholly indefensible. The Herald thus concludes :—The grounds of difference between the two great countries are daily and hourly growing broader and better defined ; the atrocious kidnapping of Col. Grogan has stirred the whole northern frontier to a deed of mutiny, and there is the strongest necessity for prompt and energetic action, either to maintain peace or to prepare for The New Fork Herald of the Ist contains an account of an interview with Mr. Wells, the owner of the Caroline, and one of the witnesses on the trial of M`Leod. He says the Navy Island expedition was a failure, that the boat was unarmed, and that no man will swear that he saw M`Loed shoot Durfee. An alibi, by oral testimony, will be one branch of the de fence ; the next will be the examination recently taken in Canada to negative the positive evidence that M'Leod took part in the affair of the Caroline. Another branch of the defence will be, the general character of the transaction, the circumstances of the times ; in short, impunity will be claimed on the ground that the Caroline was engaged in an open war on the British Province, and that she was cut off by the order of the proper authorities. The sales at the Stock Board had been large on the day previous to the vessel sailing, and prices had generally de clined. The M'Leod affair and the outrages on the border had had a great influence in the monetary circles. CASE OF COLONEL GROGAN The citizens of St. Alban's held meetings on the 21 and 22d ult., for collecting the testimony in regard to the seizure of Colonel Grogan. It appears from one of the affidavits, that on the 19th ult• there were present at the tavern of J. M. Sowles, at Alburgh, a short distance from the line, sundry persons from Canada, in company with James W. Grogan, and among the rest a dragoon who urged Grogan to drink, and was particu larly attentive to him, so much so that his extraordinary courtesies became suspicious. These suspicions were im mediately communicated to Grogan, and he was advised that a plan was on foot to kidnap him and to transport him to Canada. Grogan finally following the friendly advice given him, went to Alburgh city, so called, and afterwards went to pass the night at the house of Mr. William Brown, his bro ther-in-law, who resides about three miles within the boundary line. Another affidavit states that a gang of armed men entered the house of Mr. Brown on the 20th ult., and they were in the uniform of British soldiers, and fully armed. This affi davit then goes on to state that Grogan was seized and dragged from his bed apparently strangled. From another affidavit it appeared that a gentleman over took a waggon, at the bottom of which, Grogan was placed badly wounded and bruised. He was taken to Missisquoi Bay, and from thence to Montreal. The outrage on Mr. Grogan has caused a great excitement all along the frontier. A cull for a public meeting (to take ploco on tho ovoning of the 27th in relation to the affair was issued at Burlington on the 24th, signed by a large number of the citizens. LATEST FROM SOUTH AMERICA We have received, through the " Boston Mail," advices from Buenos Ayres and Montevideo to the 6th ult. There had been a severe and important naval engagement be tween the squadrons of Buenos Ayres, under Commodore Brown, and Montevideo, under Commodore Coe. Victory crowned the efforts of the latter, and the blockade of Montevideo has been raised in consequence.

FATAL EXPLOSION OF FIRE DAMP.—FIVE LIVES LOST. —A fatal explosion of fire damp took place on Tuesday noon, at Messrs. Stansfleld and Briggs' pit, Brunswick, near Wakefield, and by which five human beings were hurried into eternity.

At the banquet given to the Yeomanry Cavalry at Berkeley Castle last week, Earl Fitzhardinge followed the toast to the Queen, by another—" Luck, and a boy." Lord and Lady Rolle have entertained a select circle at Stevenston, their seat near Torrington, during the week. The venerable lord, who completes his ninetieth year on Tuesday (this day), is enjoying the best health, and has been out with his fine yeomanry corps since Wednesday, that regiment being ordered out for eight days' continuous duty. Of all the members of the now happily defunct ministry, the late foreign secretary is said to have been the most reso lute in refusing to resign, and it is even affirmed that the noble lord was ready to " swamp the House of Lords ", or try another dissolution of the Commons, had not the large majority in both houses cut off all hopes. 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 OF 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 he 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 bur/in Post.

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 anti M. Guizot are guiltless of a correspondence with the movement party. — Standard. E LATE LORD SYDENHAM.—We are assured that Lord Sydenham's death was occasioned by a combi na ti on o f 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 w e 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 af 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 d ea th th ere , then, and so, as the mos t desirable of possible events.—Co lonial THE BANK OF MANcut sTrtt.

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 ford' 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. Th e only new director was John Potter, Esq., son of Sir Thom as Potter. TRIAL cii'ARREN iTAATINCIi (F; ani the Edinburgh Reiiew.) The sercrc , ants made proclamation. Hastings advaneed to die bar, v.id 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 iu 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 had 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, Men* aqua 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. SAI,BM But neither the culprit nor his advocates attracted so much I 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 appesranae, 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 Mir, 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 be, " bath it with all confidence been ordered by the Commons of Great Britain, that I impeach Warren Hastings of the high crimes and misdemeanours. 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 1 " LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY PROM L'l.ool.

LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, OCTOBER 15. (From the Circular of Messrs. Dawson 5. Han ce .) 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 maybe estimated from our,quo tations and the langour which prevaded the room as soon as the sale of the fine Wools terminated. 1.576 bales Australian and 435 bales Tasmanian, prime combing, none—fair Is 6d to Is 9d lb., ordinary is 4,1 to Is 6d—low Is Id to Is 3d—fine clothing, none—middliug is 5d to is Bd—ordinary Is Id to Is sd—low and in grease 6d to Ild—skins llid to Is 6d— lambs is 3d to Is lid—locks lld to is 4d. 35 bales Cape, low and in grease 6d to ;id. 12 bales German Is bid to ;s 7d. 139 bales Italian, chiefly withdrawn, a few lots Sid to 11 id. 1192 bales Bnenos Ayres, washsd Merino, picked Sid to 13id burry 5d to Sd and loid—ordinary burry lid to sd—in grease 3lld to sd. 34 bales Odessa, brookwashed Is 4d to Is sd. 1819 bales East India, white qd to 94d, yellow 3id to 64d, grey Ind to aid. 95 bales Oporto, lid to Sid. 137 bales Russian, withdrawn, a few lots 7d to 74d. 172 bales Turkey, ditto, dittO, 6id to 64d. 68 bales Greek, withdrawn. 58 bales Peruvian, ditto. 294 bales Alpaca, ditto. 59 bales sundry, ditto. 6125 bales, LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 15. 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 ab roa d con ti nu e 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. -- 240 , Sea Island 11/ 4) 22 1 .... ,Stained — 1 3523 1253837 6420 i Bowed Georgia ~300 I f Mobile —c 1 Alabama and Tennessee 5 5/ i 6504 531523 9850 : New Orleans 4 JO f Pernambuco & Paraiba.: Ei St 1 .. } 29841 I.

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 trifling ; at the same time we may state that holders are very generally con. lident 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 opinion that an advance of Is to 2s per cwt. is pretty commonly obtainable. There is not any visible alteration in the currency or cousumption of barrelled provisions. A few small lots of new Bacon have ap peared, for which 585 to 60s is asked. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Oct, IS, • 'This has been the largest market we have had this season. hut NCnerally speaking of a. very iuferior quality. Prime thingehardly supported last week's prices. Inferior Beef and Mutton id re It, lower ; best Beef (id to bid middling 42d to Sad; Wethers 64d to 7d; Ewes 5/(1 to 6d, sinking the offal. Upon the whole it was a heavy market. and several lots of Beast and Sheep turned out unsold. Beasts, 1812 ; Sheep, 5943. 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 salps are 1400 hhds. 8.P., 9600 bags Bengal, one-half good Khaur at about 455. and the remaindergood and fine white at 72s to 73s 6d per cwt , and 100 a 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 13s. 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 27s to 28s, St. Vincent and Grenada at 23s to 24s per cwt. The transactions in B. P. Coffee consist of 180 tees. Janiaica, at steady prices for all descriptions, say low black Triage 12s, up to 146 s for fine middling, and' for 50 bags Mocha 95s was obtained. 380 bags Brazil have been taken for export at 15s to 425, and 350 bags very ordinary East India (damaged) at 2-4 s fid to 278. 10 tons Malabar Ginger brought 13s. Nothing done in Cocoa or Pimento. 1700 bags black Pepper, chiefly damaged, sold at 2d to 3id per lb. 1800 bags Bengal Rice at lOs 6d to 12s fid per cwt. The sales of B. P. Rum amount to 160 casks, chiefly strong Demerara, at the quotations : also 200 casks East India, 12s per cwt. 0. P. at Is 9d, and 32 per cent. 0. P. at 2s per gallon. Tea.—The transactions have been limited, and prices remain without alteration. Indigo.—Some small parcels of Bengal sold at 5s Sd to Is lld. Madras and Pondecherry at 3s ad to 45, and Guatiluala at 4s fid. 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 -t'6 15s to £8 15s. 800 bags Bengal Turmeric at 27s Id to 288, 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 6cl to 30s 6d per cwt., and 400 bags Nitrate of Soda at the quotations. Dyewoods.—The sales of Logwood are 140 tons, at 15s for Laguna. and 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 2509 brls. of good quality, at 12s 4d 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 ass. Pearl Ashes are dull at the quotations.

Tobacco.—A good business has been done, and the sales reach 280 hlids., of which about 60 were for export, and a few for Ireland. Prices firm. The sales in Brimstone are 310 tons, at former prices. 450 bags Sicily new Sumac have been sold at los 6d to ils per cwt. 26 casks red Argols have been disposed of at 31s to 33s for Oporto, and 35s to 365 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 tion. Pale Rape is without alteration, but in limited demand. Oil of Turpentine attracts no attention except in retail parcels, at the 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 beer. freely offered. without finding buyers. In Tallow there is little doing; some few transactions have taken place in Petersburg yellow Candle at 48s ad to 480 6d, and in Odessa at 485 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 a tightning tendency in prices, and the buyers have in many in stances 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. 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. 5000 bales have been sold. 1000 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 qd 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.
