Their run Lance o'clock yesterday evening, and the conc ssion was opened immediately afterward This morning the learned Judges attended divine service in St. George's Church, accompanied by Sir Thos. Bernard At twelve o'clock the Crown Court was opened before Mr. Baron Maule, with the usual formalities. The following composed the Grand Jury : John Ireland Blackburne, Esq., M.P., of Hale, foreman Meyricl Bankes, Esq., of Winstanley Hall. Richard Barton, Esq., of Spring Wood. Thomas Bolton, Esq., of Liverpool. Thomas Brocklehurst Barclay, Esq., of Liverpool. Thomas Drinkwater, Esq., of Irwell House. William Earle, Esq., of Spekelands. Richard Edwards, Esq., of Roby House.

The royal proclamation against vice, profaneness, and im morality having been read, The learned Judge proceeded 'to deliver the charge to the Grand Jury. He spoke as follows : Gentlemen of the Grand Jury,—lt is with great regret I ends. I observe that the cases to which your attention in the course of the performance of your important duties will be drawn that the nature of them, or of a very large proportion of them, is of a very serious description. There are nearly one half of the charges which are for offences combined with personal violence, and a considerable number of them contain charges of the very deepest kind. I have not been able so far to acquaint myself with the particulars of the cases which are likely to be brought before you, as to call for any thing like detailed observations on my part. It is satisfactory how ever, in one respect, to see there is no trace, as far as I have bee society, which I have sometimes found in this and in some neighbouring counties. I trust that the exertions of the magistracy and the police have been successful in convincing evil-disposed persons that the law is too strong for them, and in inducing them to desist. With regard to two or three of the cases which contain charges of a very serious nature I will just take the.liberty to remind you that in the event trial taking place, if the party nal evidence may be hereafter of a bill being found, and the be acquitted, whatever additio discovered, no new trial c take place That appears to be a reason in some very serious cases, why it may be advisable not to find the bill when a case of very strong suspicion only arises, unless it is such a case as will justify the common jury in convicting the prisoner, be cause, supposing a case of acquittal, there would be a failure of justice in the event of the subsequent discovery of evidence to which I have adverted. You will take this' as a general observation, and as not arising out of any particular know- ledge of the individual circumstances of any one case. Such cases do occasionally occur, and if they do, I think the sug gestion will be worthy of notice. The learned Baron then dismissed the Grand Jury to, their labours in the usual form. The Grand Jury having retired, returned in about half an hour with a complaint that there were no bills brought be fore them. The learned Judge, in consequence, announced that unless attorneys immediately presented their bills nei ther their nor the witnesses' expenses would be allowed. LIVERPOOL. CORN EXCHANGE,—This DAY (From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.) Since the early part of the week the receipts of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal into this port have been rather inconsi derable ; and without the prospect of further immediate supplies of Wheat, holders have appeared inclined to place the late arrivals mostly in granary, in preference to conced ing any abatement from the reduced rates last noted: thus, although no extensive sales have been reported from the close of Tuesday's market until to-day, this Grain, as well as Flour and other articles of the Corn trade, remained steady in 'value. The duty upon foreign Rye is reduced to 16s 9d per qr., that on all other foreign and colonial produce continuing the same as last week. Having a very limited number of town and country miller at our Corn Exchange to-day, and those extremely inactive, the trade for all descriptions of Wheat exhibited an exceed ingly dull appearance; importers, nevertheless, evincing no desire to press sales, and adhering firmly to the rates of Tuesday, we have little or no change to note in the general currency then stated. English, Irish, and Foreign duty-paid Flour, commanding very little notice, hardly supported late prices ; and bonded samples being nearly without inquiry, must be quoted 6d to is per barrel cheaper. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, being also much ne glected, were somewhat depressed in value. Oats remaining extremely scarce, fully maintained our last quotations ; but Oatmeal, participating in the languor pervading most other articles, was the turn lower.

MISCELLANEOUS, DREADFUL DEATH OF A CHILD.—On Friday week, during the temporary absence of the family, a pig went into the house of a man named Vicars, resident at Tottington, near Bury, and took a child of two months old from the cradle, and worried it, carrying completely away the nape of its neck, breaking its arm, and mutilating it in a shocking manner. When found, to the great distraction of the family, the child was quite dead. THE Bov JONES. — On Friday, Sir James M`Donnel, of the War Office, attended at Buckingham Palace, and, in company with Inspector Russell, made a most careful exami nation of all the approaches and entrances into the palace, both from the public thoroughfares and from the gardens, the result of which was the appointment of three additional sentries. UNFORTUNATE OCCURRENCE.-Mr. J. P. Tate, grocer, Strangways, left his home on Friday week, and on Sunday morning last, nine days afterwards, his hat was seen in or near a pond between the public-house and the Bolton Rail way, in the direction of a short cut to the line, which leads by a narrow path close past the pond. The pond was accord ingly dragged, and, about noon on Sunday, the body of Mr. Tate was found. He had all his clothes on, except his hat, and, when taken out of the water, had both spectacles and gloves on. In his pockets were I ls. 6d. in silver, and other articles. The night is stated to have been foggy, and it is conjectured that he missed the narrow path ; or, as he com plained of illness, that he had been visited by an epileptic fit, to which he had been subject for some years.—Manchester Guardian. IBRAHIM PASHA.—The Austrian Observer publishes in telligence from Constantinople to the 24th ult., brought by the steam-boat Ludovico. It appears that Ibrahim Pasha still remained at Gaza on the 9th ult., confined to his bed, suffering from jaundice and dropsy. He had become so much worse, that he had been obliged to apply to the com mander of the English ship Benbow, at anchor before Jaffa, for a surgeon, who had been sent to him. The Tuscan steamboat which had been purchased by Mehemet Ali had been sent to Gaza to bring back Ibrahim to Alexandria. All the accounts from Syria are unanimous in describing the ex cesses and cruelties - of which Ibrahim had been guilty before his departure from Damascus. After having pillaged all the surrounding villages to procure provisions, and.put to death more than 100 persons suspected of wishing to desert, he shot with his own hand one of his attendants. The new governor, Hadschi Ali Pasha, appointed by the Porte, had arrived at Damascus on the 21st of January, and bad been received with acclamation. The inhabitants throughout Syria had expressed their joy at h av i ng been restored to t h e dominion of their ancient sovereign. DISTRESSING CASE.—On Tuesday last, an inquest'was held before Mr. Wakley, at Cierkenwell, London, touching the death of an infant three weeks old. Its mother was in Maidstone Gaol at the time of the child's birth, and was ad vised not to leave, but she would do so. She stated before the coroner, that'she was an unfortunate woman, was in great distress, and had no food nor milk for her child, which first prompted her to make an end of it, which was effected by throwing the innocent creature into the New River. The mother was the first person to'give information of what she had done, immediately upon which the river was dragged, and the body of the child discovered. The poor woman ap peared to have been driven to a state bordering on distrac tion by continued suffering. She had applied to the reliev ing officer of Marylebone, but was refused any relief, though she gave the age of the child. The jury, after a short deli beration, returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder the mothe agai u s EXECUTION OF MATTHEW FOWLES.—The execution of this unhappy man, who was found guilty at our assizes last week of the wilful murder of Martha Keeling, at Newcastle, is appointed to take place on Saturday, the 3d of April. We learn that Fowles displays at present much indifference on the subject of his approaching awful fate, and persists in asserting his innocence of the crime for which, on the most satisfactory evidence, he has been condemned to an ignomi nious death. He accounts for the possession of the ring of the deceased woman, byllstating that he purchased it with a view of making a present of it to his sweetheart at Maccles field ; and, when asked how it was he did not pay the tailor for the coat he purchased the evening prior to the murder, he states that he had the money, but the coat required some repairs at the cuffs; he also continues to affirm that the "tiddler " man, were in the house during the night of the murder. The evidence, however, is deemed so conclusive against him, that it is not expected any effort will be made to procure a re ' —Staffordshire Gdzette. pneve LIABILITY OF CANALS TO BE ASSESSED TO PAROCHIAL RATES.—Many of the old Canal Acts contain a clause that the canals shall be rated or assessed to the poor and other parochial rates, according to the value of the adjoining land, and not of the improved value by the making the canals and works. The later canal companies have had no such ex empting clause ; but their canals are, like all other property, assessed at their improved value. The consequence of this state of thingsis, that the township of Marple, through which the Peak Forest Canal and the Macclesfield Canal pass, the former for the length of near four miles, and the latter short of three, a rate of shilling in the pound produces from the Peak Forest Canal only £2 Os. 2d. ; whilst the Maccles field Canal pays £2O 2s. 3d. The Peak Forest Canal Com pany are now in parliament for further powers ; but the rate- payers of Marple, Disley, Whaley, Bugsworth, and Chapel en-le-Frith, through which the canal and its railway pass, have presented petitions to the house of commons, praying that the bill may not pass into a law without a clause being inserted to repeal the present mode of rating the Peak Forest Canal, and leaving it to be assessed like all other property ; viz., the valpe at the time it was rated. RATING OF RAILWAYS.—IMPORTANT DECISION.—At the late meeting of the bench of magistrates at Croydon, a question of very grave importance to every parish in the kingdom in which railway works are in operation, was brought flirward, and should the decision come to by the bench prove correct in law, it will be found to affect their interests most materially. A claim was made upon the directors of the London and Brighton Railway for the sum of £l6 12s. 44d., the amount of a poor -rate assessed upon property in their occupation in the parish of Croydon. The solicitor who appeared in support of the rate contended that, as the com pany had purchased the land which was formerly assessed to the poor-rate, had laid down rails, and used locomotives upon them to convey soil, bricks, &c., they enjoyed a beneficial occupation, and it was not at all necessary that it should be profitable. Mr. Sutton, on behalf of the company, contended that, until the works were completed, there was no beneficial occupation, and, consequently, the railway could not be as sessed to the poor-rate. The bench, having deliberated upon the matter, decided upon disallowing the rate. SERIOUS AFFRAY IN BETHNAL GREEN.—Between 9 and 10 o'clock last night, the neighbourhood of Mape-street, Bethnal-green, was thrown into a state of great alarm by a report that two persons had been killed by a Chartist. On inquiry it appeared that a man named Charles Groom, a dealer in marine stores, living in Mape-street, had cut a lad named Joseph Biddle on the hand with a short heavy sword, which, from its peculiar formation, when examined by the police, was unanimously pronounced to be one of those awkward unfinished instruments with which the Chartists in this quarter were well known to have provided themselves at the tune of the Newport riots. The circumstances attend ing the assault made by Groom are somewhat curious, as it appears that he was a "new corner" in Mape-street, and that the mother of the lad Biddle, hearing a person inquire for a man named Bannister, sent her son to inquire at Groom's house if that was his name, when Groom, who alleges that he supposed that Biddle was come to rob him, rushed out upon him with the weapon we have described, and struck him on the hand, and was about to repeat the blow, when the grandmother of the lail interfered and re ceived a cut from Groom on her hand. Another woman rushed to the assistance of the Biddies, and Groom was dis armed and given into the custody of the police, by whom he was locked up. The old woman and the lad were taken to the London Hospital, where their wounds were dressed, and they were afterwards able to return home.—London Standard of Monday. SHOCKING OUTRAGE, NEAR BACUP, LANCASHIRE.— On Monday morning last, about one o'clock, the family re siding at the Derpley Inn, a lonely public-house on the moors, about two miles above Bacup, were subjected to the following most atrocious outrage, involving at least robbery, and perhaps murder. At the time mentioned, two men called for admittanoe, which not being readily granted, they broke two squares of glass in one of the windows, in trying, as they alleged, to awake the inmates. The family consisted of an aged couple, James Simpson and his wife, and a young girl who lived as servant with them. The old woman, after some delay, came down stairs and let the men in, and they asked for a noggin of gin, which was filled to them, and they threw down a half-crown for payment. At this time the old man came down and gave them change, but stopped out of it tenpence for the broken windows. They objected to this, and words ensued, and one of the villians set upon the old man and beat him with a stick about the head, until he was senseless ; the other overpoweriid the old woman, and rifled the drawer in the bar. When the disturbance began, the girl escaped by the back door and alarmed a son of Simpson's., named James, who lived at a house at a short distance, and who immediately hastened to the assistance of his parents. He arrived just as one of the fellows was coming out of the bar, putting something into his pocket. James laid hold of him, threw him down, and speedily thrashed him so that, as be said, "he could know him again." The other then came up, and said if James would not leohis comrade go, he would shoot him. James refused ; and the villain then presented a pistol and fired ; and a ball or a slug passed through the young man's body, from side to side. Of course the contest was then over, and the villains made their escape across the hills towards Burnley. The young man is expected to re cover, unless inflammation should set in and carry him off; the ball, or whatever it was, having, it appears, traversed beneath the skin, without touching any vital part. The old man, on Monday, was reported to be dangerously ill, and re maining entirely blind from the wounds on his head. A cir cumstance, calculated to add, if any thing could, to the af fliction of this family, occurred only the previous day. A married daughter of the old couple (the mother of eight children) hung herself, at a place called Old Clough, near Bacup. MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.—The following account is vouched for as true, and many particulars not here re l a t e d wou ld b e given by the editor to any person likely to give a clue to the solution of the mystery. A gentleman of elegant manners and address, calling himself Captain Henry Maxwell, and his sister Miss Maxwell, took up their residence in a town near this city. Wanting a house, they called upon a widow lady who had one to let, where Captain Maxwell saw and ad mired her eldest daughter, an accomplished and beautiful young woman, 24 years old, to whom he made offers of mar riage. He stated himself to be connected with Sir Murray Maxwell, and the nephew of a gentleman of fortune of his own name, near Cork, in Irela n d, on w h om h e d epen d e d principally for an income. They were married, and Captain Maxwell, after going to London with his bride, when he seemed to shun being seen about the streets, left her for a short time to go to Hanover, where he held a military ap pointment. On his return they went to reside at Bolougne, where the husband received a letter from Ireland, on which he told his wife that his uncle was dying, and that he would leave her to go home under the care of his sister, who would join him at their uncle's in Ireland. A fortnight after the young lady's arrival at the house of her mother she received a letter from Miss Maxwell, dated from Mount Maxwell, near Cork, informing her that Captain Maxwell had died eight days after his uncle, in a high fever, and that the uncle, displeased with his marriage, had altered his will be fore his death, leaving him nothing, and that his own pro perty, being only a life-interest, ceased with his death. Letters were sent to Cork addressed to Miss Maxwell, making the requisite inquiries about Captain Maxwell's death, and these were returned with the notice from the post office that no such place existed as that from which Miss Maxwell dated her letters, nor was any family of the name known in Cork or the neighbourhood. All inquiries have failed in producing any elucidation of the strange mystery. Captain Maxwell told his wife he was known to the Duke of Wellington, the Marquis of Douro, a son of the Earl of Wemyss, Captain Marryat, the author, with whom he sailed on board of his ship; that he was with a Mr. Fitzroy in Hanover; was related to the Marchioness of Donegal, Mr. Colthurst, and General Gillespie. He had £7OO with hint when he left his wife, besides a large chest of plate, &c. There were many books and other things which might have led to a knowledge of who he was, which the sister most cunningly possessed herself of.—Exeter Flying Post. FIRE IN THE PARISH CHURCH OF ASHTON. — About half past eight o'clock on Sunday morning last a person whose duty it is to ring what is called the quarter bell at St. Mi chael's Church, Ashton, observed some pieces of burning wood fall from the upper part of the tower, within the steeple. Upon examination he found that the roof of the belfry was on fire. He immediately made an alarm, and Armitage, the sexton, went to call the firemen, whilst some other person w ent to the police office. Some other officious person went to the place where the engines were kept ; and having broken open the door, one of the engines was taken to the church yard. The Rev. Mr. Quirk, the junior curate, and several other persons, repaired to the spot ; and a large number of water cans having been procured from the neighbouring houses, water was handed up the steps of the tower—men standing upon every fourth or fifth step, and handing the cabs or buckets of water from one to the other. To the ex ertions of these individuals are the parishioners indebted for the safety of the church ; for, had the flames descended much lower than the apartment to which they were confined, one end of the church must have been destroyed, as one of the engines was disabled immediately after its arrival at the church. The hose was attached to the engine, and the at tendants commenced working the engine before the pipe had been hoisted up into the steeple ; and the consequence was that the hose burst, in consequence of its having been bent when full of water, and the engine was useless. Such a scene of confusion we have seldom witnessed. There was no per son to direct the operations of the firemen and bystanders, and even the churchwardens were absent, until the fire was extinguished. The fire took place in consequence of the lead pipe which conveys the smoke through the steeple from the church stove being filled with soot, which caught fire, melted the lead pipe, and set fire to the dry timbers of the roof. We believe it is just 20 years since the church was on fire be fore. —Lancashire, froth being among the most backward part in England, has worked its way into the front rank. The con trast between its condition up to the middle of the last cen tury, and the astonishing spectacle which it exhibits at pre sent belongs to the transformation which a hundred fears create in a new settled country like America, far more than to the gradual improvement and change of an old English county. It would be curious to analyse the concurrent causes, and marshal the successive steps which Lancashire has advanced ;—not only succeeding in appropriating to itself a leading interest in the creative inventions of Arkwrightand Watt, but connecting its name in honourable alliance with literature and science. The very circumstances from which a contrary presumption would originally have been drawn, have (singularly enough) principally contributed to its ex traordinary progress. Lancashire owes the canals, by which the commercial thoroughfare of that end of England had been turned from the Humber to the Mersey, to the enter prise of a peer. It owes the docks, which have about them almost a Roman presentiment of future greatness, to the spirit of a corporation. It owes the taste and accomplish ments, by which the character of its wealth has been raised above the drudgery and fanaticism of money-getting, almost entirely to the zeal of a few dissenters.. The name of Gover nor Clinton is not so pre-eminently united with the canal policy of America, as is the name of the Duke of Bridge water with the canals of England. He staked his last shil ling on the chance of cutting out a north-west passage to the Atlantic. The corporation of Liverpool, by an enlightened application of their vast resources, have accelerated, conso lidated, and secured the realization of every expectation and contingency which fortune threw in their way. They have hastened, not to say anticipated, events. There can be as little doubt of the effect which the light, 1.- assemblage of Priestley. Wakefield, Aikin, &c. at warring ton ; from the presence of Percival, Henry, Ferrair, and Dal ton, at Manchester ; and from that of Roscoe and Currie, at Liverpool, spread over their circle.—Edinburgh Review - from the I , RESSIVE PROGRESS OF RUSSlA.—Within a period of 54 years, the total acquisitions of Russia equalled her whole European empire before that time. The acquisition from Sweden equalled the now kingdom of Sweden ; from Poland, a territory equal to the - Austrian empire ; from European Turkey a country equal to Prussia, exclusive of the Rhenish provinces ; from Asiatic Turkey, a territory equal to the German small states, Rhenish Prussia, Holland, and Belgium ; from Persia, an extent of country equal to England ; and from Tartary, a country equal to European Turkey, Greece, Italy, and the whole of Spain. The Russian frontier has been advanced by these acquisitions about 700 miles towards Berlin, Dresden; Munich, Vienna and Paris, 500 miles to Constantinople, 60 miles to Stockholm, and about 1000 miles to Teheran. The estimated population of Russia in 1689, at the accession of Peter 1., was 13,000,000; at the accession of Catharine 11. in 1762, it was 23,000,000, and at her death in 1792. it was 36,000,000, whilst at the death of Alexander, in 1823, it was 38,000,000.—MaltaTirnes. IMMENSE ARTESIAN WELL.—At the sitting of the Aca demie des Sciences on Monday, M. Arago made a report on the Artesian well at Grenelle, which showed the great diffi culties attending the undertaking. The first time the borer fell into the cavity was when the perforation had been to the depth of 115 metres-377 feet. This was soon after the com mencement of the operation, was soon recovered, and was in fact as nothing to what occurred in 1837. Then the length of the bars united together measured 384 metres-1,260 feet. Not only these broke, but the enormous metal spoon used to bring the materials to the surface, also fell to the bottom of the cavity, from a height of 80 metres-262 feet, and it re, quired extraordinary exertions to recover it and draw it out again. The operation, which could only be worked by means of a windlass, with horse-power workinz on the surface, oc cupied the whole time from May, 1837, to August, 1838. The immensity of this labour for 15 successive months may be well conceived, when it is reflected that it had to act to a depth of 460 metres—upwards of 2,000 feet. This difficulty being overcome, the works were continued without any fresh misfortune until the Bth of April, 1840, when the alesoir, another part of the borer, fell from a considerable height with such force that it penetrated the chalk below to the depth of 26 metres-85 feet. This created great delay. In fine, a fourth accident occurred shortly before the successful termination, when the metal spoon again fell to the bottom of the bore, having nearly attained its extreme depth. This time M. Mulot thought it better not to attempt to draw it out, but to put it on one side by forcing it horizontally into the earth, so as not to obstruct the passage.—French paper. ORIGIN OF THE COTTAR'S SATURDAY NIGHT.—But how have we been able to refrain from saying a few words about the Cottar's Saturday night? How affecting Gilbert's ac count of its origin Robert had frequently remarked to me, that he thought there was something peculiarly venerable in the phrase, ' Let us worship God,' used by a decent sober head of a family introducing family worship. To this senti ment of the author the world is indebted for the Cottar's Saturday Night. The hint of the plan and title of the poem were taken from Fergusson"s Farmer's Ingle. When Robert had not some pleasure in view in which I was not thought fit to participate, we used frequently to walk together, when the weather was favourable , on the Sunday after n oons precious breathing times to the labouring community), and enjoyed such Sundays as would make me regret to see their number abridged. It was on one of those walks that I first had the pleasure of hearing the author repeat the Cotter's Saturday Night. Ido not recollect to have heard any thing by which I was More highly electrified." No wonder Gil bert was highly electrified ; for though he had read or heard many things of his brother Robert's of equal poetical power, not one among them all was so charged with those sacred influences that conaect the human heart with heaven. It must have sounded like a very revelation of all the holiness for ever abiding in that familiar observance, but which cus tom, without impairing its efficacy, must often partially hide from the children of labour when it is all the time helping to sustain them upon and above this earth. And this from the erring to the stedfast brother ! From the troubled to the quiet spirit ! out of a heart, too, often steeped in the waters of bitterness, issuing, as from an unpolluted fountain, the inspiration of pious song! But its effect on innumerable hearts is now electrical—it inspires peace. It is felt vet, and sadly changed will then be Scotland, if ever it be not felt, by every one who peruses it, to be a communication from brother to brother. It is felt by us, all through from beginning to end, to be Burns's Cottar Saturday Night; at each succeed ing sweet or solemn stanza we more and more love the man —at its close we bless him as a benefactor; and if, as the picture fades, thoughts of sin and sorrow will arise, and will not be put down, let them, as we hope for mercy, be of .our own—not his ; let us tremble for ourselves as we hear a voice saying, " Fear God, and keep his commandments."—Pro fessor Wilson's Essay on Burns. EUROPEANS ENTERING CHUSAN ON ITS BEING CAP TURED.—The ramparts were found strewed with pikes, matchlocks, and a species of fire-rocket, arrow-headed; and on the parapets, packets of quick-lime were packed up, to blind the eyes of the barbarians had they endeavoured to mount the walls. The main street was nearly deserted, ex cept here and there, where the frightened people were per forming the kowtow as we passed. On most of the houses was placarded " Spare our lives ;" and on entering the jos houses were seen men, women, and children, on their knees, burning incense to the gods; and although protection was afforded them, their dread appeared in no manner relieved. Many were posting down the back lands into the country with their spoil, for we afterwards found the goods princi pally carried away were taken by plundering natives, not by the legitimate owners. At last we came to the Chumpin's house : the gates leading to the entrance yard were painted with huge ungainly figures, denoting, they said, Justice and Punishment. On one side was the Room of Justice, and thumbscrews and rations were seen lyingabout. The path to the inner apartment, called the Hall of Ancestors, lay through an open court, round which were the offices of the government clerks. Some letters and papers half finished showed the haste with which they had evacuated the town. Passing through the court we entered a guardhouse, which led to a trellised walk, at the south end of which was the hall. Here on the couches were the pipes half smoked, and the little cups filled with the untasted tea ; cloaks, manda rin's caps, and swords lay about in confusion. Following up our research we at last came to the apartments of the ladies : these rooms were curiously furnished, and strewed with clothes of all descriptions and for all purposes. Silks, fans, china, little shoes, crutches, and paint -pots—the articles of a Chinese lady's toilette—lay tossed in a sad and telltale male ; and many of these fairy shoes were appropriated by us as lawful plunder.—Jocelyn's Chinese Expedition. ST: ASAill CATHEDRAL. -- St. Asaph Cathedral appears, from the style of its original features, to have been built in the thirteenth century, in what is called the Early English , verging into the Decorated; but like every other edifice of so distant a date, has in the course of centuries undergone a variety of changes, in architectual conformity with the taste of the times. The most conspicuous of these changes is in the enlargement of the windows, which followed the general introduction of stained glass into this country. Al though almost every ancient ecclesiastical building presents the spectacle of a mixture of styles, which would be deemed inconsistent if adopted by the modern architect, yet in all these variations there breathes the spirit of beauty and of science, which lamentably contrasts with the innovations of the present times ; in illustration of this remark, the anti quary has merely to glance at the miserable inroads which have been made upon the purity of this cathedral, within the last half century. In the year 1783, the choir was in a great measure rebuilt by Turner, the then county architect, in grievous defiance of all character and taste. In the year 1810, the nave and transepts underwent an internal modifi cation by Gummo, by no means creditable to that architect ; the introduction of a coved and plastered ceiling under the old oak roof, with fantastic groined ribs of stucco, and the blocking up for this purpose of the unique and beautiful cle restory windows accord very badly with all notions of taste and propriety. It would be a compliment to any dignitary to restore this portion of the edifice to its p ristine state. At the intersection of the nave and transepts rises a plain, lofty, square tower, supported by magnificent arches. The piers which sustain the arches of the nave have no capitals ; but the mouldings rim continuously through, producing a very rich and harmonising effect. In the year 1832, the choir was extended westward under the tower, and beneath the western arch of which a stone screen and organ loft was erected under the superintendence of Mr. Jones, of Chester. Al though the style of this screen is of too late a date to asso ciate with that of the rest of the edifice, yet the masonry is, beautifully executed, in a superior stone from the quarry of Llanasa. Since the tension of the choir the dry rot has very unfortunately made its appearance in this edifice, and is yearly making great ravages among the old and new work. This may be attributed to the want of proper ventilation, and the insufficient seasoning of the new timber.—Prom Roscoe's Wales, new edition, now publishing in monthly parts. OLD TlMES.—Bishop Latimer's sermons are full of in formation respecting the state of England in his da ys ; and in one of them he gives the following picture of the comfort, happiness, and industry of his father's family m y father, says he, " was a yeoman, a nd had no lands of hi s own; only he had a farm of three or four pounds by year, at the - uttermost, and hereupon he tilled so much as kept half a-dozen men. He had walk for 10 0 sheep, and my mo th er milked 30 kine. He was able, and did find the king a har ness, with himself and his horse, while he came to t he place that he should receive the king's wages. I can remembe r that I buckled his harness when he went to Blackheath field. He kept me to school. or that I had not been able to have preached before the king's majesty now. He married my sisters with £5, or 20 nobles, a-piece ; so that he brought them up in godliness and fear of God. He kept hospitality for his poor neighbours, and some alms he gave to the poor, and all this he did of the same farm ; where he that now hath it, payeth tl6 by the year, or more, and is not able to do anything ror his prince, for himself, nor for his children, nor to give a cup of drink to the poor." • Elizabeth, Stone; Thunder, Small; and Water Witch, Robertson, hence at Leghorn Coronation, Scott, hence at Helvoct Jane, -, hence for Constantinople, off Cape Spartel 3d instant Kentrille, Hughes, hence at Donegal, with best bower anchor and part of forerigging carried away by a schooner with which she came in contact 14th instant Caroline, Kirkpatrick, hence for Ballyshannon, at Killyhegs, with toss of maintopgallantmast and rigging WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24.—Wind S.W. fresh ARRlVED.—Highfield, ' from Africa—John & Robert, Kechnie, and Concordia, Paine, from New Orleans—Hero, Wake ham, from Fayal.

(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott 6 , Son.) Since Tuesday last the imports of Wheat, Oats, Flour and Oat meal from Ireland have continued to a very mode extent ; but of Wheat, Malt, Barley, Beans and Flour from English ports coast ways, particularly of Foreign Wheat from London the arrivals have been very considerable, much exceeding our immediate demand here and in all our surrounding markets, and sales have been very limited, though at a decline of about Is per quarter on almost every article in the corn trade, excepting oats and oatmeal, which from their scarcity have fully supported their last quotations ; the recent imports of fine English and Foreign Wheat have not been pressing them on the market, and seem unwilling to offer such, at any re duction, feeling confident that such an importation coastways will not again occur. The duty on Wheat from from foreign ports is reduced Is per quarter, on Flour 74d per barrel, and or, Rye Is 6d per quarter, on all other grain there was no alteration on Friday last; some small parcels of Flour in bond have found sales for export at 25s 6d to 265, and a few thousand barrels on the passage from the United States are reported to have changed hands at 24s 3d to 24s gd per barrel ; about 1060 quarters of good Italian Wheat in bond have also been taken on speculation at about 5s 6d per 701bs ; very fine Wheat would-sell for 6s or a little more, but little or none offering for sale; Foreign heavy Oats 3s 5d to ss Gd per 451bs for export : but the transactions in bonded grain have been very litnit..c, throughout the past week. At this day's maket we have had a thin attendance of millers and dealers, who bought very sparingly for their immediate wants, and the transactions altogether were to a very limited extent, at fully the decline above mentioned for evry article in the trade, ex cepting Oats, Oatmeal and sour Flour, which are very scarce and fully supported last quotations.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAitCII 25 The arrival of the Patrick Henry. with dates from New York to the sth instant, has had a healthy effect on our market ; the ac counts are generally considered more pacific, and the statements of the crop, with particulars of receipts in the various ports and exports, spew a very great deficiency, fully confirming the opinions previously held, and to a great extent already acted upon ; these have given a tone of confidence to our market so much wanted for the last ten days. The demand has been more general from the trade, and several speculative orders have been executed to-day to the extent of 1000 bales, which with 3000 more to the trade, makes 4000 bales, at the full prices of Friday last; the market closing with great firmness. Yesterday 2500 bales were sold. SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 21 There was only a small show Of cattle at market, but of Sheep the supply was good. The demand for Beef being more than equal to the stock offering caused the Whole to be sold at prices rather exceeding those of this day week, and all sold. The best wether Mutton brought 6d to Sad, and Ewes lid to ad per lb. A number of Sheep usold. Best Beef did to yid per lb; inferior, 6d to 6id.
