HOUSE OF LORDS.—TUESDAY. The Stamp Duties Assimilation Bill was read a third time and passed. Lord BEAUMONT presented a petition from the Rajah of Sahara, complaining that he had been most unjustly de throned. The case, he thought, was a hard one, and re- quired explanation Lord tITZGERALD said that papers giving information been laid before Parliament, and on is a motion upon the subject before lament. Lord BEAUMONT said that unless some satisfactory ex planation were given he should feel it to be his duty to sub mit a motion upon the subject. . The Earl of RADNOR then moved the second reading 01 the bill, which he bad himself laid upon the table on a for mer evening, for the free importation of foreign corn. The noble lord repeated many of the former arguments for the repeal of ,the corn laws, which were replied to by The Earl of RIPON, who moved that the bill be read a second time that day six months. Lord KINNAIRD supported the second reading at consi derable length, after which, The Earl of RADNOR replied, and the motion for the vithOut a division second reading was negatiN Their lordships then adjournec HOUSE OF COMMONS TUESDAY Mr. MACKINNON obtained leave to bring in a bill to im prove the health of towns by preventing the burial of bodies within their precincts. Sir F. BuRDErr moved the appointment of a select com mittee to inquire into and report upon the negotiations be tween the Government and Mr. Warner, respecting his in vention, . Sir H. DOUGLAS said he was conscious be stood in a particularly delicate situation as respected this question, which the house would permit him to explain. Early after his arrival from his late government, he had been applied to by the government, through the Master-General of the Ordnance, to form, with another officer, a committee to in quire and report upon the value of certain inventions intro duced to the notice of the government by Mr. Warner. He had, with diffidence in his presumed ability, accepted the o ffi ce, jointly with Sir Edward Owen, upon the terms that the service should be performed gratuitously ; that the experiments should be promptly proceeded with; that the experiments to be made should be those only which were connected with real service ; that the inquiry should not have reference to any former experiments made ; and that the parties employed in the i nquiry should not be required to enter into the question whether there should be any re muneration granted or not to the inventor. The inquiry was noticed " and his m-* ant friend to embeac, Iwo branches, the destruction of vessels of an enemy by water, and of forts by land. Upon the assurance that what ever might transpire touchin- the invention was :o be pet ifidential as respected the officers employed in the inquiry. Mr. Warner assented to these preliminaries. Upon the 21st and 27th of January last they had inter views 'with Mr. Warner, in which he had been warned to avoid risking by any explanation the nature of his secret, and the Ist of February was appointed for the exhibition of the effect of his invention. At that date, it appeared Mr. 'Warner was not ready to attempt his experiments, nor did he call their attention to any fresh appointment whilst Sir Edward Owen continued available, who not until the 25th hoisted his flag. Time enough had been thus given for pre paration, and if any unnecessary delay had taken place, it was chargeable solely to Mr. Warner himself. (Hear.) The place of Sir Edward Owen had been filled by a very compe tent officer in this description of service, Sir Byam Martin. After some allusion had been made in their inter views with Mr. Warner to the description of experiments they would require to be tried, Mr. Warner at once insisted that they should go into the question of compensation to him for his invention, when they at once explained they had no such authority, and would not enter into the consideration of that question. (Hear, hear.) In consequence of communicating this determination to the Master-General of the Ordnance that officer acquainted them by letter, stating that this circumstance had not affected his previously-entertained opinion as to any danger that might be anticipated to this country from the invention being suffered to get into the hands of any foreign Government. The inventor had refused to offer, in proof of the value of his invention, any of the required experiments until the sum of XlOO,OOO should be guaranteed him—(loud expressions of dissatisfaction.) The opinion of the persons charged with this inquiry was that the series of experiments should be all Practical; for it would not suffice, in their opinion, that Mr. W. should place an ingine in the bottom of a pond of still water and draw a barge over it so as to pull a trigger which should communicate with the charge and cause the destruc tion of the barge. They were already well acquainted with an explosive power which would blow a hole in any ship's bottom and sink her ; but the difficulty was to apply it to a vessel of the enemy, with a tide ebbing and flowing from 15 to 20 feet elevation and depression, whilst guards were, as usual, rowed round the ship. These were most important considerations—(hear.) Again, if the caisson were buoyant it must rise to the surface, and it would be detected ; or if it were not buoyant it would sink, and prove ineffectual. The question was important, how it was to be suspended at the proper height in the water, so as to secure the whole force of its explosive effect upon the bottom of the vessel to be attacked ; He meant no disrespect to Mr. Warner, but he had no hesitation in saying from all he had seen of that gentle man, that he was truly unlearned, and without scientific knowledge. He might, in his own mind, have divined some such power as he laid claim to, but he believed that was all. Let him, however, if he could, under circumstances of wind and weather, which he (Sir H. Douglas) would point out, try his invention against hulks, which he would provide for him, and against a fort which they had ready selected, and if he could blow up the hulks, and ruin the defences of the fort, displace the guns, and destroy animal life in the shape of two or three hundred sheep—(" hear," and a laugh), which they would place within it,—if Mr. Warner could do this and show at the same time that the power can be used with safety to the user, and that the country in possession of the secret might retain to itself the exclusive benefit of it, then he would say, that unlearned and unscientific as he was, he would have made a high and important discovery, equal, perhaps, to those of Schwartz or Bacon ; but until Mr. Warner did this, he (Sir H. Douglas,) judging from the little scientific knowledge which he could claim, must confess himself incredulous as to the existence of any such power.—(near, hear.) Mr. BaoTazirroN read some letters to show that Mr. Warner had offered his invention to Don Pedro. Sir R. PEEL said that every facility had been afforded to Mr. Warner both by the late and the present governments ; but he had repeatedly avoided submitting his experiments to the test when the appointment was made for him to do so. After some observations from Captain PLUMRIDGE and Captain PECHELT„ Sir G. COCKBURN said that Mr. Warner had never been in the navy. He was not a naval man. On a division the motion of Sir F. BURDETT was nega tived by a majority of 72 to 2. Lord ASHLEY obtained the qualified consent of the go vernment to a motion that the commissioners for enquiring into the employment of children in mines and other branches of industry be desired to make further enquiry as to the number and ages of children employed as apprentices to miners of coal and of iron. Mr. T. DuNcomna moved an address to her Majesty, praying that the case of Mason and others confined in Staf ford gaol might be considered with a view to their discharge. After some discussion the motion was negatived on a divi sion by a majority of 53 to 30. Mr. HUME then brought forward a motion for an enquiry into the charges against the Rajah of Sattara. Dr. BOWRING seconded the motion, but the hon. member had no sooner concluded than the house was counted out. HOUSE OF LORDS.—Fgpay Lord CAMPBEL L moved t he second reading of the Bribery at Elections Bill. . . Lord BROUGHAM supported the proposition, and ex. pressed a hope that the House of Commons would perceive the necessity of giving up the trial of controverted elections by its own members. _ . _ _ — The bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Monday. _ _ _ Several bills on the table were forwarded a stage, after which their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY Sir JAMES GRAHAM stated, in reply to a question from Mr. Blackhurne, that it was his intention to proceed with the County Courts Bill this session, though he might intro duce a clause to limit its duration. _ The house then went into committee on the Newfound land Bill, and on clause 6 being proposed, Mr. O ' CONNELL moved, as an amendment, that the words ; " abolish the Legislative Council of Newfoundland as a distinct assembly," be left out of the clause. Lord STANLEY opposed the amendment, and after some discussion the amendment was negatived by a majority of 80 to 18. • Mr. O'CONNELL then moved, as an amendment, that the number of Government nominees should be five, instead of ten, as proposed by the clause. Another division took place, and this amendment was also negatived, by a majority of 82 to 21. Lord C. FITZROY then moved, as an amendment, that no nominee member should be allowed to vote on any subject relating to supply, taxation, or finance. Another division took place, and the amendment was negatived by a majority of 79 to 22. The committee then divided upon the question that the clause stand part of the bill, which was carried by a majority of 72 to 25. The house then resumed, and the report was ordered to be brought up this day. Mr. O'CONNELL moved for copies of the correspondence between the government and the magistrates and police, re lative to the trial for ribandism at the late Armagh assizes. He spoke at considerable length of the conduct of Hagan, an approver on that occasion, and of his having made by his own confession hundreds of ribandmen, with the sanction of th' Magistrates, for the pnr r oue of subserinuntly bet ravin o them. He was sure Lord Eliot would never sanction pro ceedings of such a description. Lord ELIOT could not consent to the production of the papers, for by so doing he would establish a dangerous pre cedent, and might tend to defeat the ends of justice. The report of the trial referred to by Mr. O'Connell was, he contended, inaccurate. If the magistrates were cognisant of Hagan's proceedings, their conduct was altogether unjus tifiable, and it was with considerable reluctance he objected to the production of the papers. After some discussion the house divided, and Mr. O'Con nell's motion was negatived by a majority of 72 to 24. Lord PALMERSTON gave notice that on Monday he would move for copies of any correspondence that had taken place beteen any member of the house applying for the Chiltern Hundreds and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in which the right honourable gentleman refused the application, and in which the ground of that refusal was set forth. In reply to a question from Mr. VILLIERS, Mr. B. BARING said that orders had been sent to Singa pore and Penang, directing the governors of those provinces to transmit immediately a project of law for the immediate abolition of the slave trade. Drafts of projects of law had been transmitted to India also by the directors of the East ir regularityln T n India Company with the same object. nA i 1 1.1 tcheeL delivery v e o r f y theof the E "c cn e reply to a question from Mr. R.

After some further disliWsion the house went into com. Enlace ou the bill. Another struggle took place on the question of the engross ment of the Newfoundland Bill. It was carried, however, by a majority of 5.1 to 21, and the bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday. Lord ASHLEY, inmOvipgthe order of the day for the con sideration of the Lords' amendments to the Mines and Col lieries Bill, complained of some of the alterations which had been made in the bill in the House of Lords, one of which alterations would render it inoperative, as regarded the restriction of female labour. He felt it necessary, however, to adopt those alterations, although he disapproved of them, because, though the limited the operation of the bill, they yet affirmed a great principle. After some observitions from Lord PALMERSTON, Sir JAMES GRAHAM, and other members, Sir R. PEEL said he disapproved of some of these altera tions, and more particularly the one relating to female labour, although he did think it was absolutely necessary to allow women in certain cases to enter mines. After some further discussion, the amendments were agreed to. - Lord PALMERSTON then moved for copies of the corre spondence between Lord Chelsea and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, relative to the application for and refusal of the Chiltern Hundreds. The CHANCEELOR of the EXCHEQUER seconded the mo tion, said that, in refusing the Chiltern Hundreds, he was acitng, according to his judgment, in conformity with the wishes of the house. Mr. HUME said that had the right hon. gentleman acted otherwise it would have been an insult to the house. Sir R. PEEL said the act of the Chancellor of the Exche quer was the act of the government, and the decision was altogether irrespective of the case being that of Lord Chelsea. The house, alter some other business was gone through, adjourned. Mr. MAMRMAN moved that the house resolve itself into a committee for the purpose of considering the following re solution : " That it having been the uniform practice, for many years past, to allow or to charge the wine merchants upon their stocks in band for any variation of duties that have taken place, this house is of opinion that it is but just and reasona ble that the same course should be pursued in the event of a reduction being made of the duty upon Port wine consequent upon the tariff to be annexed to the treaty with Portugal, notwithstanding the transfer of the collection of the whole of the wine duties to the customs." The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed the mo tion. It was a novel practice to propose a resolution of this description, in anticipation of a treaty the precise terms of which were not yet known. The proposition of the hon. gentleman went to constitute wine an exception to the ge neral rule, which had been applied to timber and other ar ticles. The wine trade had had ample notice; and the mer chants had been enabled to prepare for the alteration, and dispose of their stocks. It must not be supposed that, by taking off the duty on the stock in hand, the country would derive any benefit. After a'few words from Lord SANDON and Mr. AGLI ONBY. Sir R. PEEL said he hoped that no consideration would induce the house to agree to the motion. They had recently revised the whole of the custom duties, and exposed the holders of various articles to an unexpected competition, and in no case had a drawback been allowed. (Hear. hear.) The holders of coffee and timber, for instance, were exposed to this competiton, and no drawback was allowed ;•yet here it was proposed, with reference to the particular article of wine, that they should ender into an engagement to allow a drawback, in the event of n"ieduction of duty on that article being effected. Was there ever such a premium on fraud as a measure like that would offer? (Hear.) And what check would there be on adulteration ? (Hear, hear.) The motion was negatived without a division. HOUSE OF LORDS.-SATURDAY The Exchequer Bills Bill, the Consolidated Fund (Appro priation) Bill, the Canada Loan Bill, Ecclesiastical Corpora tion, Leasing Bill, East India Bishops Bill, Lunatic Asylums (Ireland) Bill, were brought up from the Commons, read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Tuesday. The Bonded Corn Bill (with the Lords' ameudnients agreed to) , and the Court of Chancery O ffi ces Abolition Bill, with amendments , to which their lord ships' concurrence was desired, were also brought up. Their lordships adjourned till Monday at ten o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-SATURDAY TURN-OUT OF COAL AND IRON MINERS (From the Glasgow Papers.) Considerable alarm has been experienced in the neighbourhood of Glasgoii this week, in consequence of a strike having taken place among the colliers and iron-miners in the Airdrie and Coatbridge dis. trict, and the likelihood that a similar turn-out would occur in the more immediate vicinity of the city. It appears that in the first-named district the wages of the colliers and iron-miners have for some time past been somewhere about 2s. 6d. to 3s. a-day, working four days in the week, and that a demand was recently made fur 4s. a-day ; while the labourers employed at the works, who were in the receipt of Bs. a-week, made a demand for 10s. The proposed advances were refused, and on Monday and Tuesday a general strike took place, several thousands of the miners, &c., retiring from their work. The circum stance, as may easily be imagined, excited a good deal of consternation throughout the district, especially as the idle men clubbed together in bands of from fifty to sixty, armed with sticks, and paraded the roads and villages, and on various occasions declared their determination to take food wherever they could find it, rather than return to work on the terms of their employers. On Wednesday there was not, it is said, a colliery around Airdrie or Coatbridge in employment, and it is anticipated the iron works wanting coal will be unable to continue operations a week longer. At Dundyvan, one-half of the fUrnaces are out, and at Gartsherrie there is also a large number extinguished. On Tuesday night, four sheep were carried off from one of the fields in this quarter ; and a field of potatoes, on the estate of Drumpeller, was entirely cleared, without the aid of the accustomed digging ope ration. It is said that one of the overseers, on going down to the field in question, found upwards of two hundred of the workmen busily engaged filling bags with the crop. being asked what they were about, some of them jocularly remarked, that they had begun their harvest. The garden of the Rev. Mr. Stirling, Relief minister at Coatbridge, was also entered, and a quantity of potatoes, and other vegetables, made away with. On Tuesday a large meeting of the miners was held on the banks of the Monkland Canal; they came from all quarters — Airdrie, Holytown, Bellshill, Chapelhall, &c. Their proceedings at the meeting were very orderly, but as they passed through Coatbridge, to the number of about 4000, almost all of them carrying sticks, they cheered vehemently, to the great terror of the shopkeepers and other inhabitants. Several other meetings have been held, and a deputation has waited upon the masters, but no satisfactory conclusion has been come to. _ - _ We may state that the colliers as a body have no funds to carry out a strike, their means having been completely dried up in the struggle of 1827, since which time they have never been able to organise themselves with effect. Under these circumstances, some danger is to be (apprehended from so large a body of men being let loose without the means of feeding themselves and their families. Troops have been ordered from Edinburgh and Stirling by express. FASHIONS FOR AUGUST. (From the " London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.) Foulards, bar?ges, balzarines, diaphane, nzoosselines de laine, pekins, watered silks, and organdys, are all now in demand ; and redingotes of various kinds of batiste are worn, batiste Valenciennes, batiste d'Ecoese of Java and Japan. Pretty dresses of the latter materiel are made with short but full hanging sleeves raised to the shoulder by buttons; this style is termad a la Corinne, the corsages of muslin dresses are round, a la Vierge, with half tight sleeves, or namented with Crispins of lace; dresses of organdy are with cein tures and buckles, with long ends and very deep flounces on the skirts. Some have four or five deep tucks, forming almost a skirt of tucks. Many have short sleeves, with revers forming mantille on the body or the corsage a caultsses ; watered silks have been made open at the sides with revers of a watered silk of another colour, one that harmonises well with it, the sides connected by an echille of ribbon, the under skirt of watered silk the same as the revers, and made the width of the hem longer in the skirt. Pretty dresses of striped prult de soie, are trimmed with a deep biais vandyked, and the skirt quite plain at the waist, the gathers being all carried to the back. Flowers are very prettily introduced on summer toilettes of organdy, in the form of cordons of heath to edge the double and triple skirts and the bottom of the sleeves; the same style is also made in mignonette, geranium, myosotis ; the coiffure similarly or namented to correspond, Embroidery en soutache (braid) is much in favour in Paris for foulards, silks, mousselines de laine, and even organdys, and Grecian patterns are being introduced. The cardinal pelerines the some as the dress ar^ not made very deep, the newest among the large camails are of silk filet, in diagonal stripes of white and shaded greens, with second pelerine reaching to the waist, small collar armholes, the whole of which are trimmed with a fringe matching in colours. Crape bonnets are very fashionable this month ; nothing is prettier than pink crape divided by several rows of open straw, and ornamented at the side by a bouquet of moss roses ; white crape is mixed with inlets of Valenciennes, divided by pink gros de Naples. Wreaths of small wild roses are very pretty for capotes of tulle bouillonnees ; a new bouquet has been made com posed of small leaves of vrlvet, shaded green and brown, from which fall red berries ; they are intended for straw bonnets trimmed with velvet shaded with green. IMPORTATION OF CATTLE.—There were landed on Mon day from the mail-steamer from Rotterdam, at Mr. Barber's quays, Lower Thames-street, 10 very fine grass-fed bullocks, weighing about 1 10 stone , dead weight, the first imported under the new tariff. They much resemble our short-horned Yorkshire breed, and are a size capable of being fed to almost any weight. Our informant considers it impossible that a n y large quantities of such weight can be immediately importe d. Holland seems the most likely place to give us a supply ; there the rich pastures may be appropriated to grazing lean stocks, which are now almost entirely used for dairy purposes. — London Times. ATROCIOUS OUTRAGE.—On Saturday morning last, at a very early hour, Mr. Haile, of Threapthwaite, near White haven, hearing a noise in the hen-roost, got out of bed and went there, when be saw a tall fellow make his escape, and Mr. Haile was about to follow him, when he suddenly en countered another of less stature, who was just escaping from the hen-roost. A desperate conflict now ensued be tween Mr. Haile and the lesser villain, in which the former had the advantage. The thief was knocked down, and his conqueror was about to drag him to the house, when, by a violent effort, the fellow got hold of Mr. Haile's collar, and succeeded in pulling him down also. The contest was now renewed upon the ground, each party grappling with the other, and a most fearful struggle ensued, in the midst of which the tall fellow returned to his companion's assistance, and by a series of furious kicks on the head and breast, soon rendered Mr. Haile nearly insensible. Even in that state, however, he still held the lesser fellow with a tenacity of grasp which defied the efforts of both villains to extricate him. At length the taller of the thieves drew out a knife, with which he cut Mr. Haile across the forehead, and in flicted a deep and dangerous wound in his neck, about a quarter of an inch from the jugular vein, swearing, at the same time, that "he would finish him." The unfortunate gentleman, whose intrepid courage througheut the fearful contest we cannot but admire, then relaxed his hold, and called out " murder?" On this the thieves fled, leavi ng their victim bleeding profusely, and altogether insensible. AN USEFUL HINT.--BRIGHTON, August I.—A curious announcement was yesterday made from one of our pulpits, and has been attended with some unpleasant consequences. At the close of his sermon at the Chapel Royal in the morn ing, the Rev. S. R. Drummond, the officiating minister, addressing his congregation, remarked, that although it might be considered a novelty for a clergyman to speak from the pulpit at the close of the service, he wished to tell them that there were now among the congregation two notorious pickpockets, and that it would, therefore, be well for them to be careful. Such an announcement coming from the pulpit, and just at a time when the town is full of that description of marauders waiting to pick up the unwary at the coming races, created a sensation ; and, as if by common consent. the eyes of the congregation were turned in the direction of a pew, where sat two gentlemanly-dressed strangers who had entered the church during th e reading of the Litany.

ALEXANDER M'LEOD AGAIN !—The notorious Alexander M`Leod was in our city yesterday. He c ame over on account of some busin e , e , and was quietly attending to it, wh en an onslaught was made u p on hi m by some loafers, led on, we believe , b y John O'Brien, who, b y so me means, had learned the fact of WLeod's presence among us. No violence w for some distance, loading him with abusive epithets and makin g threateningegseacs:etaluresl,ytiolffl,ertnede, sbcuatptehetio.mloafe,rs followed M`Leod he took refuge in a storuP street, whence he quietly departed for the cars. Occurrences like this a re disgraceful. M'Leod, well aware as he must be of the feelings with which many on this side regard him, is a fool for coming here, unless compelled by business; but, if so compelled, there ought to be Power somewhere that should be exerted to prevent such a patriotic display on the part of John O'Brien and his cronies. Unhappily there are too many such characters on each side of the lines—Buffalo Ad vertiser. Lord Cottenhatn now moved the judgment of the case in conformity with those opinions, expressing his own to be that the intention of Lady Hewley, collected from the words of the deed, would be best carried into effect by this decision. I Lord Brougham concurred, and said that the decision of the court below must be affirmed, and as usual, unle'ss under special circumstances, none of which appeared in this case, it must be affirmed with costs. Lord Campbell said that, having argued the case as coun sel at the bar, he should abstain from expressing any opinion. Judgment of the court below affirmed with costs. THE LONDON AVERAGES.-A curious circumstance has taken place with regard to the London averages ; the return published on Friday having been issued in the first instance with a blank against the word Wheat, afterwards 6,906 qrs. at 675. 10d. per qr. were returned, subject to an investigation by the board of trade; many rumours are afloat respecting this occurrence, but we shall refrain from noticing any of the reports in circulation, unless something definite comes to our knowledge.—Mark Lane E.zpress. THE OLD LADY AND THE COBBLER OVER THE WAY.— Some years ago the husband of an old lady, residing in a country village, happened to die rather suddenly without making a will, for want of which very necessary precaution his estate would have passed away from his widow, had she not resorted to the following remarkable expedient to avert the loss of his property :—She concealed the death of her husband, and prevailed upon an old cobbler, her neighbour, who was a person somewhat like the deceased, to go to bed at her house, and personate him, in which character it was agreed that he should dictate a will leaving the widow the estate in question. An attorney was accordingly sent for to prepare the required document, and the widow, on his arrival, appeared to be realising the greatest affliction at her good man's danger, but forthwith proceeded to ask questions of her pretended husband, calculated to elicit the answers she expected and desired, The old cobbler, groaning aloud, and looking as much like a person going to give up the ghost as possible, feebly answered, " I intend to leave you half my estate ; and I do think the poor old shoemaker who lives over the way' is deserving of the other half, for he has always been a good neighbour." The widow was thunderstruck at receiving a reply so different to that which she expected, but dared not negative the cobbler's will, for fear of losing the whole of the property, while the cunning old rogue in bed, who was himself the poor old shoemaker living over the way, laughed in his sleeve, and divided with her the fruits of a project which the widow had intended for her own sole be nefit.—Scotch Gazette.

BOMBAY HARBOUR, 14TH Jinek, 1842.—A dreadful fire broke out on board of the ship Cornwallis, (being the next ship to ours,) on the 10th instant, and in twelve hours she was consumed, with a valuable cargo of cotton, opium, &c. for China. There was another ship, of 1400 tons, burnt here a fortnight ago. Not the smallest attempt was made to save either, but they were left drift ing about the Harbour in flames fore and aft, to the great danger of the other shipping in the port. Such earelessnztss, I believe, was never witnessed. There are no other ships on the eve of sail ing for Liverpool. Freights are tremendously low. Ships are laying here doing nothing, and likely to remain so, as there are more coming in every day. are only 560 hhds., chiefly Barbadoes, without much change in priee, except in the better descriptions, which are rather lower. 2,400 bags Bengal brought 68s. to 71s. for middling to very fine white, and 800 bags Mauritius, ship-damaged, sold at the queta- - tions.

There has been only a moderate demand for Brimstone, the sales amounting to 100 tons, at rather better prices.-Some few sales of Verona Sumac have been made at ss. 9d. to 6s. cwt., but the general demand is languid.-At the public sales of Argols and brown Tartar but little was done; 35 casks Naples red and white A rgols brought full prices, and a few casks brown Tartar previous rates.-Cream of Tartar in limited demand, at 665. to 67.5. for good quality.-Small sales are reported hi French Madders and Turkey Roos at previous rates. -The business done in Olive Oil has been more eitenstve than for some time past, and the demand having been freely met, prices have not varied materially from the quotations ; the total sales amount to upwards of 150 tuns, of which nearly one-half has been of Sicily descriptions.-About 80 tons pale Seal Oil have been sold from the ship-side at £35 ss. to £35 10s. and a few tons of Cod at £ 3l 10 s. l ton.-Pale Rape and Linseed Oils are dull of sale, and offering lower for future delivery ; particularly Linseed.-Oil of Turpentine has been inquired for, but at lower rates ; no sales have, however, transpired below 355.-240 tons Palm Oil have been taken by the Soap-trade, principally at £32 10s., but about 100 tons from the quay rather lower.-No transactions are reported this week in Hemp.-Tallow remains steady at last week's prices; but there is little demand; 50 pipes of fine South American have realized 455. 6d. cwt. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 5 If possible our Market is more animated to-day than pre viously this week, and prices are again id. per lb. higher. Sales reach 6,000 bales, all to the trade. The sales of the week amount to 53,000 bales, of which the trade have taken 40,000; remainder to speculators and exporters. COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 8 - It affords us much pleasure to be able to continue our favourable report of the Cotton market ; the demand seems to gather strength. On Saturday 8000 bales were sold, and to-day fully 7000, chiefly to the trade. Prices are gradually tightening, and though they do not ramble as in other days, yet there is a feeling of health and con fidence that gives an assurance that at the bottom the foundation is good. There was some rumour on Change, that in some of the manufacturing districts, the operativei had availed themselves of this early opportunity to turn out for an advance of wages. This is rather too bad, for the improvement has not gone beyond the Manchester market, and has yet has not found its way into the pockets of the producers, if this turnout be general, it may cause a temporary cheque to our advanced market. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, AUG. 8. We have had a fair supply of Beast and Sheep at this day's market, and prices firm at last week's quotations.

LADY lIEWLEY'S CHARITY, HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY. SHORE AND OTHERS V. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL AND OTHERS This was an appeal from a decree of Lord Lyndhurst, which affirmed a previous decree of the Vice-Chancellor, declaring that Unitarian ministers_ were not intended to be the objects of the bounty of Lady Hewley in the charity she had instituted. The circumstances of the appeal are shortly these :—Lady Bewley was a native of the city of York, and during the times of religious persecution in the reign of Charles 11. became the protector of the ministers who were ejected under the provisions of the Act of Uniformity. Some years before her death, she being very desirous of devoting a considerable part of her property for the purpose of encouraging " the preaching of Christ's holy gospel by preachers dissenting from the established church, called Godly preachers,' , she executed two deeds, by the first of which she conveyed certain property upon trust, that " out of the rents there should be paid to poor and Godly preachers of Christ's holy gospel such sums as her trustees should think fit." By the second deed she provided for a hospital, which she had already founded, for the maintenance of the poor and their families ; and ordered certain books and regulations to he used and observed in the hospital, particularly the Catechism of Mr. Bowles, who was a dis senter of great note in York during her life-time, and had been minister of York Cathedral during the time of the com monwealth. These charities had for a great many years been administered by Presbyterians, and for the benefit of Pres byterians ; but had latterly been diverted, among other things, to benefit the preachers of a class of Protestant dis senters who were stated to be Unitarians. In 1826, when the commissioners of charities inquired iuto this particular ' charity, a formal complaint was made to them of the applica tions of its funds for the spreading of Unitarian doctrines, and the resnit was that an information was filed, and the question of the right so to apply the fund was brought under the consideration of the Catfrt of Chancery. The Vice- Chancellor, by his decree, declared that Unitarians were not intended by Lady Hewley to be the objects of her bounty. The parties appealed against this decision, and the appeal was heard at first before Lord Chancellor Brougham, assisted by two common law judges, but the argu ments were not concluded, and no judgment was then given ; and afterwards before Lord Chancellor Lyndhurst, assisted by two other common-law judges. When Lord Lyndhurst retired from office, he gave, in pursuance of an agreement long before entered into between the parties, his opinion on the appeal, and affirmed the decree. Against that decree and the affirmation of it the present appeal was brought. The case was argued before the judges, who, in the early part of this year, gave their opinions that the admi nistration of the funds of this charity could not legally be , vested in the bands of Unitarians.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, AUGUST 5 COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT There has been a further improvement in the demand this week, and the purchases on account of the trade have been on a more extensive scale than in any previous week during the year; Specu lators have bought freely, but for export the operations have been moderate. Prices of the common and middling qualities of American have advance id to id per lb, whilst fair to good remain without change; in other descriptions there is no alteration. 1650 Sea Island and 550 Stained were offered by auction to-day, of which 730 of the former and 300 of the latter found buyers, at prices about on a par with the previous business. 500 Egyptian were also offered, but withdrawn for want of bidders. Speculators have taken 13,000 American, and Exporters 750 American. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the 29th ult. to the 4th instant, inclusive. Prices paid IMPORTS in the week. ThisWk.lthisyear 73 Q 17/ - 1 1030 - 5i 1271618 }son g , 11 1250 G LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. AUGUST 5 The rate of duty has advanced upon Foreign Rye to 9s 6d, and upon Colonial to is per qr., which are the only al terations we have to notice for the ensuing week. We have again a large arrival of Wheat, the import from abroad within the past three days exceeding 19,000 qrs., chiefly from and through the Mediterranean ; the supply of States and Canadian Flour is also to a liberal amount, and the whole, as well as our present stock of bonded Wheat and Flour, may now be considered virtually on the free mar ket,'there being every prospect of an early advance of duty ; the fresh supplies coastwise and from Ireland are generally, as of late, very limited. The trade between Tuesday last and to-day assumed rather more firmness, and a few transactions took place in the leading articles on nearly the terms last noted. Yesterday there was an indication of unsettled weather, by which some stimulus was excited ; more, however, in the ,minds of holders than of buyers, there being upon the whole little apparent relief from the state of apathy previously existing. Several millers from distant parts of the country, at this day's market, seemed to impait rather more stability to the trade for Wheat, in which a fair extent of business was transacted, and there appeared a somewhat less eager desire to force sales than in the early part of the week ; most hold ers notwithstanding, evinced a ready disposition to meet the demand, and while some parcels of good quality realized our last quotations, a decline of ia.,to 2d. per 70lbs was more generally conceded. Upon a moderate sale for States and Canadian Flour, each may be considered rather cheaper; home made and Irish remaining nominally unvaried. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, being nearly without in quiry, were severally, in some degree, depressed in valve. A few parcels of fine heavy Dutch Oats, just arrived, ap peared to meet a rather free sale to-day at 3s Id to 3s 3d per 45 lbs. ; but in other kinds, scarcely any business was done ; and Oatmeal, being very little noticed, hardly maintained Our last currency.

A few favourite brands of south of Ireland Butter, were disposed of. at the close of the week, to a moderate extent at 8 s. to St . for Carlow and Kilkenny. In middling and inferior Butters there is absolutely nothing doing. The continuance of favourable wea ther, and the great abundance of after-grass, will tend to keep prices low. Pickled Butter in fair demand; for the Brazils at 765. Holders of prime heavy beef, (and they are very few,) confidently anticipate better prices, in consequence of the great inferiorly of foreign provisions. Pork is a omplete drug, and, prices have de clined so rapidly, that we cannot safely give a quotation. Bacon continues a saleable article at steady prices. MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, _AUGUST .6 In the early part of the week, the trade, intlunced (in addition to the previously existing_ causes) by the great decline which took place in London, was in - a state little short of alAoltite panic ; and though during the day or two, the eagerness to realise which was previously manifested has somewhat abated ; holders have been very willing to sell at the reduction which has taken place in the value of every article since this day week. With very trifling exception, the weather has continued favour able for harvest ; the reports of which from all parts of the king dom are most satisfactory. At this day's market, though somewhat more of a secure feeling is evinced, ]solders of all articles readily meet purchasers in the moderate business which is doing. The demand is confined almost entirely to the best samples of each article. and on these a reduc tion on the rates of this day week is submitted to at 6d. to gd. per bushel on Wheat, 2s. to 3s. per sack on Flour, Id. to 2d. per bushel on Oats, and 2s. per load on Meal. Beans. Peas, and Malt. with out much variation. Inferior descriptions of all articles are sale able only at very low rates, and we may remark that in the present unsettled state of the market, quotations for any quality can be made with little accuracy.
