GENERAL MISCELLANY, On Friday last her Majesty completed her twenty-fifth year. On Wednesday next the Cheshire Yeomanry will assem ble at Chester for their annual probation of duty. The guano trade is still thriving, and no less than 300 Briti-h vessels are now engaged in a business that was not thought of two years ago. That ornament of the peerage, William Lionel Felix (!) Tollemache, Lord Huntingtower, figures in the list of insolvents in Tuesday's Gazette. Mr. Crockford, of gaming-table notoriety, expired between nine and ten o'clock on Friday night. His death will add to the difficulties of the settling on the Derby. LAUNCESTON ELECTlON.—Yesterday week, Admiral Bowles was returned member for this borough, in the room of Sir Henry Hartlinge. Several agricultural villages have petitioned the House of Commons to re-inflict the punishment of death on persons guilty of the crime of arson. STRANGE FOSTER MOTH ER.—There is now to be seen at Mrs. Norton's, the Mexborough Arms. Inn, Hunslet, near Leeds, a cat that is suckling six young rabbits. A DESTRUCTIVE PAUPER.—On Friday week, a pauper in the Devizes Union workhouse, who was dissatisfied with his supper, demolished four hundred and thirteen panes of glass. CONVERTED MEMBER.—On Monday, in the Commons, Mr. Scott Murray, having embraced the Roman Catholic religion ; took the oath prescribed for members of that persuasion. ECLIPSE OF THE MOON.—On Friday next, the 31st instant, there will be a total eclipse of the moon. The eclipse will commence at fourteen minutes after eight in the evening, and terminate at twenty-six minutes after one o'clock the following morning. PATENT MEDICINES.—We learn from a parliamentary return just printed. that the amount of dote on pattirt medicines, in the 10 years, ending sth January, 1844, was on an average, nearly £30,000 a year. This shows an im mense consumption. A short time since, a poor woman of Colchester, having scratched her hand, and afterwards brought it in contact with a corpse which she had been engaged to lay out, the member became inflamed, and the disease increased to such a degree as to cause death a few days afterwards. THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.—It appears by a re turn made to the House of Commons, that in 1838 the Lords of the Treasury limited Mr. Barry's remuneration, as architect of the Houses of Parliament, to £25,000 to be paid at intervals in proportion to the advance of the works. In the gambling-houses broken into by the police last week false dice were found anon; the gambling imple ments seized. The brass divisions of the roulette tables are in most of these dens so formed as to present an ob struction- to the entrance of the ball at the will of the manager of the table. Negociations respecting the reduction of the tariffs of 'the two countries have been opened by the English and French governments, and will be prosecuted with greater activity during the interval of the session. Persons engaged in the Ve ine and Brandy trade must not, accor dingly, lose all hope. A synagogue, in a style of splendour surpassing any thing hitherto attempted in England, is about to be elected in the west of the metropolis. Sir Moses Montefiore has contributed £5,000 towards the building, on the under standing that the worship is to be according to the usages of the Spanish and Portuguese Jews. DEATH OF THE HON. MR. WORTLEY.—WC regret to state that the don. Charles Wortley, youngest son of 'Lord Wharncliffe, President of the Council, expired on Wednesday morning last at the house of his brother in - Grosvenor street. The deceased gentli man 'was thirty - four years of age, and married to a daughter of the Duke of Rutland, by whom he has several children. DEATH PREFERRED TO SLAVERY.— Short ly before the royal mail steamer Trent left Cuba, a fine-looking black slave went on board, but on being informed that he must return on shore, he drew out a knife and nearly severed his head from his body. On his person were frond 200 dollars, which he had saved, three boxes of cigars, and a copy of Gil Blas. He belonged to an unkind master, from whom he had hoped to escape. :LORD CHIEF JUSTICE TINDAL.—We are enabled to give the roost po-itive con•radiction to the report current in the legal circles—viz., that the learned and excellent Lard Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas con templates, or has expressed a wish to resign his high office at the expiration of the present term. His lord abip at present does not entertain any intention of retir ing from public life.— Standard. GUANO.—The market is better supplied, and holders are more inclined to sell; the tendency of prices is deci dedly downwards, A cargo of Peruvian, which has been nearly three years in London docks, bar been sold from £l2 103, to £l3 per ton. For arrival cargoes of African are offering at prices varying from £5 10s. to £8 10s. per ton, according to the month.—Landon New Price Current. THE PRIZE COMEDY.—The Committee appointed by Mr. Webster to award the prize of £5OO to the best prose comedy illustrative of modern British manners and cus toms concluded their labours on Saturday, by adopting the piece entitled Quid pro quo, or the Day of Dupes. Of the author.hip of this production, we are not at liberty to say More:than it is by a lady, known to literary fame. There were 98 competitors. A BLIND CARPENTER,—Near Cheddar Cliffs, in Somersetshire, stands John Cooper's cottage. This ex traordinary man b' s been quite blind for forty years, during which period he has learned the trade of a carpen ter, and may be seen making a cart, waggon or some other, implement in husbandry, without the least assistance, his mortices and mouldings being truly accurate, and he can distinguish any kind ortimber. NOVEL IMPORT. —A new trade has sprung up in Hull, •to the benefit of the sister isle. On' Friday morning, a •stranger from Ireland arrived'by railway, at seven o'clock. with a thousand and forty docks, which were in Liverpool at seven the preceding evening. He sent them out in droves of fifty, in various parts of the town, and by Mon day evening had disposed of the whole (executing the odd forty), at ls. a couple. The speculation was so success ful, t hat he immediately sent for a further supply.— Hull paper. _ '1 HE APOTHECARIES' HALL.—Th's establishment has just issued a report of its proceedings since 1815. when penal enactments were passed against any unlicensed person practising. From the report it appears that, from August, 1815, to January, 1844, there were 11,564 appli cants fbr admission, of whOm 1531 were rejected. and 10,033 admitted. In the years 1836 7, the applications were 622, which, in 1812-3, were reduced to 396, Toe report stated that the hall had succeeded in almost every prosecution against unqual:fi3d practitioners, and that each prosecution cost £320. A foot race for the championship came off on Tuesday, at Smitham Bottom, neLr London. 'The competitors were Geor r gii i n ai r i i sv ni e s i l i i , aw tie of fo t r -l n aminer sm ith, and Benjamin Butler, o inches, and the latter fi.atter:t two '. a - s e t r o ea p i :e in man of 5 feet 8 t rsc.n. u measuring 6 feet 2 inches ; the minutes, tierfor vary .ilet,, weer can in the fist six miles in 53 militates. Both were tog,t eight miles, when Boiler took the lead, and Bradshaw, having a violent pant in his ride, gave in at. the 15th mile. Botl-r p' formed the . 2s miles very comfortably in four hours and a half. DEATH kaOAl VOLUNTARY STARVATION.—On Mon day afternoon, Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Blur Anchor, Club-row. Bethnal-green, on the body of James Beasley, aged 51 years. It appeared by the evidence that the deceased was a weaver : that he lived by himself ; kept three large cats, which were in fine condition ; but he had himself wasted away for want of food, from which he had voluntarily abstained. It was ascertained, by post mortem examination, that Vie intestin s were quite empty, except a little water. Verdict—" Natural death, accelerated by exhaustion and starvation." The real fact is, we suppose that the poor fellow was a lunatic. REFUSING TO ASSIST A CONSTABLE.—On Monday last, Mr. James Wade, of Wakefield, shopkeeper, was charged before the magistrates at the Court-house in that town, by Mr. Thomas Hsieh, one of the constables ap pointed under the Parish Constables Act, with refusing to assist him to quell a disturbance after being charged so to do. Wr. Wade said he had a shop to attend to which he could not leave. The Bench infortned him that he was liable to an indictment for misdemeanor, and liable to be punished by fine or imprisonment or b3th. Mr. Haigh did not wish to press the charge, and Mr. Wade was or dered to pay the expenses. ROBBERY AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE.—On Thursday, at Bow-street Police-office, two sisters. named Lindsay, the one a housemaid, and the other a linenwoman, em ployed at Buckingham Palace, were brought up on the charge of stealing a quantity of blankets, counterpanes, &c., the property of her Majesty, and James Lindsay, their brother, a surgeon residing at 25, Upper Eaton street, Pimlico, was charged with receiving the same, knowing them to have been stolen. It appeared th a t th e females carried off the a rticles at various times, and de posited them with their brother, who afterwards removed T them from his lodgings. They were all remanded. SPECIMEN OF FREE TRADE.—A Mr. GOSS, who has carried on the drapery business, at Davenport, twenty-one months, having commenced operations without a farthing of capital, has contrived to incur debts to the amount of nearly £30,000, and he, the other day, went before the Commissioner of Bankruptcy, at Exeter, with little or nothing to offer to his creoitors. For postages of letters he had set down 6s. per week ; twenty-one monthly Journeys to London, £lO each ; string, brooms, brushes, &c., 2s. per week ; clothes, washing, medical advice, and pocket money, £122. The charge for gas was enor mous. He had twenty-eight assistants, for whose weekly board he charged 10s. each. He confessed that he had sold several hundred pound s ' wort h of rods to parties in London at a considerable reduction from the cost price, and made no note in his books of such transactions. : l ater T HE DERBY- - PIGEON EXPRESSING.—Ex ress e s rb are by generally now pet for med by steam, on rail o r horses; but the Der b y was done . by pigeons, which ' o nei ther stop for water nor turnpikes , i npiturnpikes,es, but shoot along their straightforward course, rejoicing n the blue serene! It is with pigeons as with horses—th.t as a horse will always come hone faster than beg oes cut, so will the pigeon • and to increase this feeling in the bird, advantage is some: times taken of natural causv i s. For nstance, a pigeon that left young ones at home will t ravel much faster tha n an indi ff erent bird. If "money makes the mare to go," instinct is sure to make the Mid to fly—and fly with in creasing joy at its nearer approach to home! It was so on the Derby-day. Our private ex t r aorchn w ary express beat our public one so much that the Sun as delivered on 'Change and all over town bs , fore our public one reached the office. We had thus the exclusive pleasure, not only of " distancing" our rivals, but the satisfaction of beating ourselves!—Sun. SECOND EDITION. Slandard-offee, Half-past Seven o'clo:!k, DUBLIN, May 27th, 1844. The Chief Justice, perceiving their intention, interrupt ing Sir Colman O'Lochlen, said, that from his (Sir Col man O'Loet.len's) staling simply that he appeared as counsel for Daniel O'Connell, it was right to inform him that the court would consider the application he was about to make as made on behalf of all the traversers, and could not hear more than two counsel on each side. Mr. Close, also for the traversers, urged their right to move separately in arrest of judgment ; but the Court put an end to the ma ter by stating that as the points of law 'e'ied on were the same in the case of all the traversers, they would adhere to the ordinary practice of the Court, and were determined not to hear more than two counsel on each side. Upon this the traversers' counsel appeared somewhat creqfallen, and Sir Colman O'Loghlen proceeded to ad dress the court in arrest of judgment, upon the ground that the caption to the indictment did not state which of the grand jury had been sworn, awl which were affirmed, (there was a Quaker upon the grand jury), and also that the indictment contained several distinct charges, and was therefore bad for duplicity, and further that the charges were too vague and uncertain. The learned counsel then proceeded to argue these points at great length, but without seeming to produce the slightest im pression on the Court, the object appearing to be to be wilder the Court with a host of cases and authorities hav ing little or no refereice to the subject. Half-past Two o'clock. Sir Colman O'Loghlen is still on his legs, addressing the court; his object appears to be to speak against time, as he is citing authorities and positions which have been so often referred to in the proceedings that they have lost even the air of novelty ; indeed, when he was about to read out one case, Judge Crampton entreated him to save himself the trouble, as he had already heard it seven times during the t,ial, and had it almost by heart. If Sir Colman O'Loghlen does not speedily conclude his already threadbare argument, sentence can hardly by possibility be passed to-night, and thus all reasonable powers of cal culation are likely to be baffled by the inexhaustible talk ing powers of the conspirators' counsel; however, I shall keep my litter open until the latest hour at which an ex press can be despatched. Quarter-past Four. Sir Colman O'Loghlen is still on his legs, and there- fore, as the Attorney-General has yet to be , heard in answer, after a hick Mr. M`Donogh will reply on behalf of the traversers, and then the Solicitor-General in reply to him, there is no chance of the motion being terminated to-night. Sir Colman O'Loghlen has concluded, and Mr. Fitz gibbon is now speaking, and insisting that, notwithstand ing what has fallen from the Court this morning, the tra versers, every one of them, have a right to make a sepa rate motion to arrest the judgment. The Attorney-General rose and stated, that he antici pated the objection would be made, and he had therefore consulted the Attorney-General for England on the sub ject, and be informed him that the Queen's Bench in England would not hear more than two counsel on such a case. • Mr. Fitzgibbon said that Sir Wm. Follett's saying so did not make it the law. The Chief Justice observed, that the counsel for the traversers had no right to complain; that each of them, throughout the case, bad addressed the court as if he was concerned on behalf of them all. The rule of court was against Mr. Fitzgibbon's client, and he (the Chief Justice) for one would adhere to it. There was another able counsel to be heard on the same side as Sir Colman O'Loghlen, and anything the other counsel wished to urge, they could say it to him. The other members of the Court concurred, and the application of Mr. Fitzgibbon was unanimously refused. The Court then adjourned at half-past lour o'clock, until to-morrow, so that another day at least has been gained by the traversers. There was a meeting of the Repeal Association this day, Sir Samuel Bradstre, t, Bart., in the chair. The rent received up to three o'clock was .f 538 odd, including £lOO from Savannah, and £5O from Brookl)nn ; but a sum of money from New Or'eans was rejected, as it contained some suggestion the Repealers did not like. Mr. O'Con nell was present. • ASTRONOMICAL PROGNOSTICS OF RAIN.—Mr. G.Sug den, of llowden. writes th,:s to the Mark-lane Express: " I anticipate a sudden transition from drought to moist ure, as the planet Venn., has entered the watery sign Cancer. An old author says, Venus, in the first ten degrees of Cancer, gives certain ruin ; consequently, we may expect tine g-nial showers at intervals daring the next ten days. Povitive electricity prevails for a few days about the middle of the month, discharging itself in va rious parts of the kingdom, bur, generally speaking, a fine growing month may be expected." Venus in Cancer has not, up to this time, been so bountiful as the old author avers her to be, at least, we have but few or no droppings thereof in this part of the country. Hors.—Worcester, May 22.—The aprearance . of .fly in many Hop-gardens has caused considerable excitement in our market within the lar.t few days, and to several months of utiu , ual dulness has succeeded an active trade, with an advance in prices from the lowest point of 7s. to Bs. per cwt., and which was firmly maintained in our market on Saturday. The 'present rates of the best 1813's ramted from £6 12s. to £6 Ns. per cwt., and 1842's from 115 s to 120 s per cwt. Both sorts are scarce, and quite inadequate to meet the increased demand ; in consequence of which good fresh old hops have been in quired after, and some sales of 1837's t.nd 1839's have been made at 504 to 63s per cat, and a few old lots at 30s to 42s per cwt. There were 18 pockets weighed on Saturday, TEE NEW GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF INDIA.—SOUTH AMPTON, MAY 22. The heavy brume of the new Go. vernor-General of India is expected here in a day or two forfor an d Al e xand ri a. u te shipment doon in ntho et t l e i is to G wo r ef e v a Je t ru,n L ee i v .m e b r T i a , o rhk o e l ,hGw ere. o l v ti e c r h nTo depart _ c7 en s e ney are to .proceed via France to Marseilles. where a Government steamer will be in waiting to convey them direct to Egypt, from whence they wilt embark, at Suez, on board the Oriental Company's steam-ship, the Hindostan, for Cal cults., and will arrive there about the 20th of July. Sir Henry Hardinge will be the first Governor-General of India whet has proceeded to his government by what is called the overland route. It is a question whether Lord Ellenborough will have bad time to make arrangements for his return before his successors arrival, which will take place only a few days after Lord Ellenborough re ceives his recall. It is calculated that Sir Henry will have entered upon his high functions in India within little more than a couple of months from the date of his ap pointment being made in Leadenball-street—a celerity of movement which th , history of Indian affairs has never yet been able to record. SKLF-TRANSPORTATION.—In the Royal Court, Guern sey', on Saturday week, James Cohn, aged 19, and Henry Dufour, aged 18, were. charged with hating at various times feloniously entered the premises of Mrs. De Lancey, at the Grange, and stolen therefrom sums of money to the amount of £l5; also a dozen of wine, as also 3s. from a dresser in the kitchen. Advocates Utermarck and Falla severally stated that the prisoners were not desirous of making any defence, " but they were willing to leave their country (i e. Guernsey) for such period a s the court might think fit to order, as had been done in several previous instances." The Qwen's Procureur said, that as the only proof against the prisoners was derived from hn's confession, which was made under a promise given by Mrs. De Lancey that he should be admitted as Queen's evidence, and, considering that they were both young men, against whom no complaint had been previously brought, he recommended that the court should order Cohu to leave he Pa id for six years, and Dufour for four years. The court, considering the above circum stances, and considering also that if the prisoners had been tried and convicted their " punishment" would not have exce-d, d that which they " asked for," ordere 1 Cohn to quit the island for five years and Dufour for four years. The two young men I.ift viol for Southampton, to try their luck iu the convict settlement of England. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. About eleven o'clock the court assembled, when Sir Colman O'Loghlen rose and stat that he was about to move an arrest of judgment on behalf of Daniel O'Con nell, and would shew that upon the record as it then stood, judgment could not be passed against that gentle man ; it was evident from the way in which the learned gentleman expressed himself, that the traversers expected to be heard each by separate counsel, upon the present motion. Thus They flattered themselves they would be able to spin out the proceedings to so late a period that the court would be unable to pass sentence until next term. However, Sir Colman O'Loghlen said that he was only instructed on beh If of Mr. Daniel O'Connell; and that some of the traversers havint , been convicted of a different offence from that of which he was found guilty, they would seek to address the Court by their own counsel. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. LOCAL NEWS. NEW COUNTY MAGISTRATE.—On Thursday last, at Preston Sessions, George Ormerod, Esq., of Fern Hill, Bacup, qualified as a magistrate for this county. COMMITAIENT.—On Wednesday last a female, named Fitzpealtl, Wag committed for trial for robbing a butcher, of the name of Talbot, (whom she had enticed into a house in Skelhorne-street,) of two half-crowns and two shillings. BURGLARY.—On Saturday night last, the office of Messrs. Brown and Green, merchants, of Commerce court, Lord-street, was entered by means of skeleton. keys, and four papers of silver, containing £5 each, were abstracted. The thieves, who left a skeleton-key after them, have since eluded the vigilance of the police. ROBBERY OF ONE HUNDRED POUNDS.—About quarter after twelve o'clock, on Friday last, a Bank of England note fur £lOO was stolen from the counter of the Branch Bank of England, in Hanover-street. The note had just been received from the cashier. A reward of £lO has been offered. STALLS IN THE STREETS.—At the Police-court, yes terday, several persons were fined for erecting stalls for the sale of goods in the streets, contrary to the provisions of the improvement act.—Mr. Rushton expressed the determination of the magistrates in all cases to inflict penalties. IMPROVEMENT OF KIRRDALE,—Within the last few months, several hundred dwelling-houses have been erected in Kirkdale. The recently opened ground about St. Mary's Church is covered with neat cottages, and all tenanted. Between the village and Bootle-lane, Mr. Duckworth has laid out a very picturesque and elegant little square, surrounded with villas. ROBBERY OF THIRTY SOVEREIGNS.—On Saturday night a man of the name of Thomas Farmer, who had taken his passage to New York by the ship Samuel Hicks, was robbeJ of thirty sovereigns by three fellows, who en ticed him to a public-house, and, by the well-known trick, entitled " ringing the changes", induced hi m t o exhibit his money, and then plundered him of every shilling he had in his possession. IMPORTANT TO GAS CONSLMERS.--111 the course of the hearing of some cases for the receiving of money due by parties for the consuming of gas, on Thursday last, at the Police -court, it appeared that by a recent act of par liament, which received the royal assent on the tenth of the present month, the price of gas fittings may be re ct-Tered by the same summary process as arrears for gas— that is for the fittings supplied subsequent to the passing of the said act, for its clauses are inoperative as respects the recovery of the cost of fittings before it was enacted . PUBLICANS AND BEERBEILLERS FINED.—At the Po lice -court, on Friday, the following persons were fined in the amounts respectively affixed to their names, for vio lation of the improvement act. In the whole of the cases costs were incurred :—Publicans—William Hickson, Waterloo-road, 60s. Beersellers—John Threlfsll, Prince William-street, 40s; Elizabeth Lynas, Freemason's. row, £5; Hannah Lewis, Potter -street, 60s; Nicholas Coyle, Lace-street, £5; James Lovatt, Banastre-street, £5; Thomas Winder, Lambert-street, £5. PORT OF RUNCORN.—There has been a greater num ber of arrivals at this port this month, than at any former period ; large consignments of i ron f or th e manufacturing districts have arrived, as well as clay and flint for the Potteries ; the tonnage of goods which passed up the Bridgewater canal last week, was greater than has ever been known since its construction. These facts, with the large quantities of manufactured goods passing through for Liverpool, denote a better state of things than has ex isted for several years past. SINGULAR ROBBERY.—On Saturday night the founda tion-stone of the new Northern Hospital, Great Howard. street, Which was laid, about a fortnight since, by the Mayor, was removed, and the bottle which, at the time, was placed underneath with so much ceremony, was ab stracted. The thieves, no doubt, fancied that it contained some of the coin of the rea!m, but in this they were dis appointed, as its contents consisted merely of a printed list of the committee and officers of the institution. Toe bottle was-found broken to pieces, at a short distance from the spot. BIRTHS EXTRAORDINARY.--011 Wednesday last, a monkey of the East Indian breed, gave birth to a young one, at the Zoological Gardens. The latter is quite a curiosity, and with its mother, are doing "as well as could be expected ;" and indeed much better, for the mother may be seen hopping about with the young one at its breait. On the same day, mirabile diclu, a brood of five black swans (those rarce ayes in terria) were hatched at the same establishment, which has further been in creased, during the present week, by the birth of four young hyeanas, which are being suckled by a terrier bitch, ST. NICHOLAS'S CHURCHYARD.—On Saturday three idle fellows were brought before Mr. Rushton on a charge of having been riotous and disorderly in St. Nicholas's Churchyard. After the cases bad been adjudicated upon, Mr. Rushton sent for Mr. Miller, the Head-constable, and told that officer that a gang of most disorderly fel lows were in the habit of frequenting the churchyard in question. He said he was acxious to have the place cleared of them. Mr. Miller said there was an officer constantly at the yard for the purpose of quelling their turbulent conduct, hot that he should have them prevented from ass-.mbling in unsure. ROBBERY OF FIFTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS.—On Thursday morning last. the out-door clerk of the Riya} Bank of Liverpool, received Bank or En !land notes to the amount of £1,50 at the office of the Branch Bank in Han over-street, and between that place and Tarlton-street a• black• leather case, in which they had been deposited; was picked from his pocket, and not the slightest trace of the property has since been discovered. A reward of £IOE has been offered for the apprehension of the thief or thieves. We regret to state that the numbers of only four of the stolen notes are known. One of them was for £5OO. STEALING A WATCH.—On Saturday a young female, named Ann Sullivan, was brought up•before Mr. Rush ton on a charge of having stolen a silver watch belonging to Mr. Edward Blackmore, li.N., formerly of Dublin. It appeared, that, while the complainant and his wife were attending divine service the preceding Sunday, the pri saner, who was a servant in the house in which they lodged, 6, Clarence-street, took the watch from the mantelpiece in the sitting-room, and asked a widow, of of the name of Ann W. Daly, who occupied a cellar in BrownloW-bill. to keep a small jar for her . for a few days. She told Daly that the jar, which was tightly fastened up in brown paper, contained an ointment for the eyes. Daly placed it in ber drawer, and, shortly after, her son tore off the paper, and discovered the watch inside: This led to the prisoner's apprehension, and she was, of course, committed for trial. NEW BUILDINGS IN EVERTON. The Richmond Of Liverpool is fast losing its character as a fashionable sub urban residence. Tne valley between Everton and the t , wn has for some time been covered with, small property, and last year the upper part of Prince Edwin-street was completely built up with courts and cottages. At this moment three streets are in progress, very near comple tion, running from ‘Tetherfield road North to George's Hill and ISurtlitimberland Terrace, and as one house rises above another tike steps of stairs, the effect is curi ous. These houses are inteod, dto ba let for about £2t) a year rent, and several ,re already tenanted. At George's H di, several houses, rather more expensive, are in course of ert.c.ion, and a very neat I.ttle street, with houses on one side has just been opened from George's Hill to Church-street. Mr. James Hepworth, for the privacy o' his house and gardens, has purchased and planted the pound on the op,Josite side. STEALING SUGAII..-011 Saturday, a labouring man, named George Bostock, was brought before Mr. Rushton. on a charge of having plundered Bernard and Ledson's warehouse, in Dundee-street, of a quantity of sugar. Constable Keogh saw the prisoner enter Savage's marine store, the day before, w,th his coat on his arm, and he shortly after found him in the back cellar of the store with his coat loosely thrown over some old ropes, Upon examining the c.at he found a handkerchief con tainir•g a quantity of sugar. The prisoner's hat contained about a stone of the same article ; and a bag, which was found upon him, contained about an equal quantity. It subsequently turned out that the fellow bad cut open several begs of bonded sugar, belonging to Messrs. Platt and Hamills, in the warehouse above mentioned, and abstracted what was found upon his person. The sugar had not paid duty, and was worth obout 705.. per cwt. He was committed for trial. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN CONNEXION WITH THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF IRELAND.—A public meeting of the members and friends of the new congregation of this church, lately esiablishe 1 in this town, was advertised to have been holden in the Commercial-hall, Gloucester-- street, on Thursday evening. A few minutes after the hour announced for the opening of the meeting, several reverend gentlemen ascended the platform, when it was announced that the meeting would be adjourned, in con sequence of circumstances having transpired which ren dered it impracticable for the deputation advertised—the Rev. Dr. Stewart, Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Ireland ; Dr. Cooke, of Bel fast ; Dr. Brown, of Ahadoey ; Mr. Dobbin, of Ballymena, and other eminent personages —to attend. A letter from the Rev. Dr. Stewart was real by the secretary, express. ing the deep regret which the deputation felt at not being role to make good their appointment, which originated in having laid before the Lord. Chancellor a marriage bill, the proceeding of which required their attendance. The meeting was announced to be held some day in the ensuing week, when the gentlemen forming the original deputation will be in attendance. EARLY CLOSING OF SHOPS.—On Wednesday morn. ing another six o'clock meeting was held in the Circus. street school-room, Byrom-street, for the purpose of ap. pointinz six district committees for the northern division of the town. Mr. Flower was called to the chair. He stated the object in view, and after recommending the ap pointment of the committees to the assistants,, called upon T. A. Flower, who moved a resolution appointing them, and dwelt on the importance of the duties that would devolve upon them. Tears, be said, bad been shed by the mothers, the wives, and the daughters of En. gland o ver t h e wrongs of the slave abroad, an d t h e na ti on had ema nc i pa t e d .them ; yet meanwhile, an d l ong litter- wards, a system of slavery not less fraught with moral dangers to society had been permitted, and even en- Courage& by the same parties. He.did n ot attribute this to any want of benevolence on the part of his fair coun trywomen, but to their ignorance of the grievances of the assistants ; and to make them known was the busi ness of these committees. Mr. Mirams seconded the re solution, urging the meeting for united exertions, which h-id been successfully pursued by the booksellers and ironmongers. The chairman reminded the meetiag that the booksellers and ironmongers had wrought upon a sympathy which this association, after a labour of four years, had excited; and he rejoiced in their nieces 4. The resolution was unanimously carried, and a collection was made. Another resolution, pledging those present to the ebaireaan, the meeting seperated, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACES. T.

TO O THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES, Srn,—lt is not our province to take part in public discussions upon questions of political economy ' • but we are compelled , in self-defemee, to refer to the letter of " Publius," in the Times of this day, on the - subject of " Trade with France;" which is made the medium of an unwarrantable attack upon us. " Publius" is, no-doubt, an iWerested party, who, un der the shelter of an. anonymous signature, would fain servehimself and other holders of French brandy. To do this he adopts two means—argument, if his writing,ean be so , called, tending to a , redaction of the duty on French brandy, and thereby to enhance the value of that article in bond ; and abuse, applied to British produce, with a view to creating a greater demand for the foreign. He, and those interested with him, or whose feelings he is en gaged to represent, may justly feel alarm at '• the conti nually declining quantity of French brandy whch pays duty for consumption, in the face of a constantly increas ing population ;' and, having little rep:and, el for truth or consistency, it is not to be wondered at that, in the spirit of unscrupulous advocacy, he. beat the real cause for such decreasing consumption ; or that he should attempt to put down successful competition, which is the real cause, try vulgar abuse. Indeed,-so reckless is he, that not satisfied with an onslaught upon British dis tillers, he even assails the- whole medical and chemical professions.- The simple truth is, that the constantly increasing de mand for our Patent Brandy has- made an important in road upon the trade in foreign brandy; and that this, with the adoption of our PareirrMetillie Capsules, as an effectual security to the public against the fraudulent sub stitution of inferior spirits. has occasioned the utmost uneasiness in those who deal in foreign brandy. That " Publius" is what we have describsd him to be, there cannot be a doubt. He asks for a reduction in the duty on French brandy, not for the benefit of the consu mers who will, at any price, indulge their taste for " the finest Cognac; but for the purpose t-f effecting "a -conci liation of the most powerful agricultural interest" of France. Generous Cosmopolite ! He is eager to sacri fice every native interest (except that of the holders of French brandy) at the shrine of foreign prosperity. What to him the grain of England in competition with the graces of France If there be sorrow in ourfarmsteads, will there not be joy in the vineyards abroad ? Although our firm is not mentioned by name, yet, as our Patent brandy is the produce of British grain—as the trade descriiit on of it conies within the scope of " high sounding titles"—and as its healthfulness and genuine purity are borne out by the " testimony of scientific men," it is bare!y possible to suppase that " Puhlitts 7 ' did not intend, and deliberately perpetrat., a per-oval attack upon us or that the passage referred to has nut been more or less applied•to us by your readers, and the public generally, many of whom are unpossessed of the ab,olute merits of the case. We maintain, Sir, and we have the most incontroverti ble evidence of the fact, that our Patent Brandy, distilled from British grain, is a purer and more wholesome spirit than Cognac or other French Brandy. This has been ascertained by the most careful analysis, made by Chemi cal Professors whose names rank with the most eminent in the world—by "scientific men," who were unquestion ably paid, not any agreed sum, as is basely, insinuated by " Publius," for the-purpose of influencing their opinions respectively, but according to the charge made by theta, for the time and professional skill bestowed upon the in quiry, as a physician, a barrister, or any other gentleman, would be paid for first-rate professional services. That the opinion of such a person as " Publius" would conform with that of any purchaser, at a given price,.we have no reason to doubt. On the contrary, we believe him to he a commodity tor any market—at presentdisposable by the holders of Foreign Brandy. But " the gall and wormwood" to " Publius" is,.that the genuine and decided testimonials in our favour have h.ci their natural effect upon our sale. They have led to the use of our Patent Bralidy by an. immense number of private consumers, among whom the greatest men of the day might be named.; and to its being prescribed, daily, in preference to French Brandy, by the highest, medical authorities at Guy's, St. George's, and the Westminster Hospitals ;at the anchester, Bristol, and Brighton In firmaries; and, in short, at all the principal hospitals and public institutions in England. Free from the acid inseparable from French brandy, and from its astringent nature, we challenge competition at home and abroad ; and whilst we thus tear away the mask from " Publius," controvert his statements, and repudiate his conclusions, we say at once that fear of competition does not for a moment influence us in writing this letter. The fashion for the use of French brandy is rapidly passing away. British science and British enter prise have succeeded in raising the produce of British Grain far in intrinsic , value above that of foreign grapes ; and however much the duty on .foreign spirits may be re duced, we are confident that such a reduction will not prevent the continued increase of demand for our patent brandy. We are, Sir, Your MQSt obedient Servants, J. T. BEM, Jun. and Co. 7, Smithfield Bare, London. . WINK FININGS.—An article of a new and certainly useful character fur fining wine is advertised in our paper of to-day ; and so truly efficacious is it that one bottle is sufficient to rectify a hogshead of liquor, and the price does not exceed ss. per gallon. It is applicable to either port or sherry, and is warranted to keep any length of time. STEAM TO TOE LAKES.—We are glad to find that the favourite steamer, Windermere, has again commenced Plying between this port and Ulverstone. She has been fitted with new boilers, condensers, &e., and the whole of her hull has been thoroughly ov rhauled and repaired ; the cabin too has been redecorated, and no exerti , n has been spared to secure the comfort of those who may during the insuing summer visit the picturesque and beautiful scenery of Cumberland and Westmorland. It is calculated that under all ordinary circumstances, the passage to Ulverstone will be made in about 3 hours. BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY AND ALL THE ROYAL FAMILY.
