AL3B i"7 is rish situated ' h i n e tdh on n P a a i~'' in Count} of Corner ll,Per,t o n f C o f r WI i t ch twenty years are unexpired. It is in the, midst of an immensely rich Mining District, being in the vicinity _of Binnar Downs, Itelistian. Copper Bottom, Wheel Vor and: Great Work, Pol crebow, Carn Brea Alines, and many otlx6rs too numerous to mention. Yet notwithstanding suantages, the Proprie tors are desirous that WEST Sr. Aube valued only by its own present worth and apparent prospects, which,if not stir passing, are considered at least equal to those of any Mine in the County of Cornwall, however rich, at the same depth. But, without further remark respecting the value of Mine, Capitalists, especially those who may not have the means of inspecting her, or of getting it done for them, are respectfully referred to the annexed Letters, from well known experienced - Mining Agents, who have not the least interest in the Mine in any way, men of high diameter and acknowledged integrity—Captains Alexan der Teague, Nicholas Langdon, James Southy, and James Front, agreeably to whose recommendation the sinking of the new Shaft, so as to cut the Great Tin Lode 15 fathoms under the present level, is already begun, and in course-of prosecution. Although the nominal Capital of the . Mine is £6,000, yet it is confidently expected that not one quarter of that sum will be. expended (except for materials) before the Mine will be yield ing immense profits'; and therefore it is .hoped that no call will be made after the Deposit of ss. per share, except for the 'pur chase of materials, - especially a - Steam Engine to draw the water from the Mine, and to stamp the Ores, of Which considerable quantities might be raised even from its present shallow level, so as to give immediate profit to the Proprietors, if there were a Steam-stamps erected for crushing the Ores, as may be seen from the annexed Letters. To meet the supposed expense of the Mine, and secure a fund for the erection of a Steam Engine, and the purchase of the necessary materials, it has been determined that a Capital of £6,000 be raised, in 6,000 shares of El each;. towards which a deposit of ss. per share has been paid, and a further instalment of ss. per share is to be paid on the 21 of January, 1837 ; before which time, it is supposed, the Great Tin Lode will be cut at the, twenty fathom level, and, therefore, the erection o f a Steam stamps is necessary, in order to facilitate the making of returns. But no further call is to be made until authorised by a Special General Meeting of the Shareholders to be convened for that purpose one month's notice of which to be given in two Cor nish, two London. and two Liverpool newspapers, viz. :—The Mining Journal, The Watchman, The West Briton, The Cornwall Gazette, and the LIVERPOOL. STANDARD, and Journal. The next General Meeting of the Shareholders to take place some time in December (notice of which will he given in the above newspapers), unless sooner called for by some unforseen exigence, or •by a majority of the Shareholders; when the ac counts shall he inspected, and when, if required by the meeting, two or more Directors shall-be e l ec t e d, w h o i n conjunction with the Managing. Agent, shall have the conducting of the opera tion of the Mine. All accounts to be made up monthly, and open for the in spection of every Shareholder. Application for Shares to be made (if by letter, post paid) tq Mr. RICHARD STEPHENS,, Penrvn; to Mr. ANTHONY STE riENs, Penryn; and to Mr. C. J. WESTLEY, Broker and Ge neral Agent, 'l, Goree Piazzas, Liverpool. RICHARD ,STEPHENS, Managing Agent. ANTHONY STEPHENS, Purser. Since the publication of the original Prospectus, the Mine has been exam►ned by the under-mentioned parties (referred to above), and from .their highly favourable report- the shares are now at a premium of two pounds. A few hundred shares are now offered to the Public, and as it is confidently expected that the next report will occasion a large addition to the premium, an. early appiic•ation will- be necessary to secure them. The addresses of the Examiners are attached tp the Letters, that persons wishing for more extended information n►av refer to them ; upon enquiry being made in the neighbourhood, they will he found men of long experience and known integrity, and that the prospects held out to the Public are much. more than the present appearances would justify. Liverpool, Sept. 20, 1t336. . . • C. J. WESTLEY, Broker. Richard Stephens, Esq. West St. Aubyn, 30th June, 1836. Sir,—Agreeably to vour request, we whoAe names are here unto subjoined, have this day inspected \Vest St. Aubyn Mine, arid now send you our joint opinion of present appearance, and the manner in which, ire recoinmend yonr future . method of working the said Mine, so as to explore as nut 21t of the Lode as, can be on the least expensive scale. We conceive the Sett to be a valuable one, having, .we believe, upwards of 500 fa thoms in length, ou the course of the large Tin Lode; which LOde is worthy of notice, its component parts being such as indicate its being a Tin Lode. of such strength as not to be in jured by any change of Strata that may take place in depth. We - were not a little suprised to find at the present working shaft, which is only about five fathoms deep, a - Lode varyin g from three to four feet over, or in .breadth, on the course of which about sixteen Eithonas have been driven at the bottom of the said shaft, on the average worth about £7 10s. per fathom. We do not recollect ever seeing a lin Lode so regular in size, and making on the north and 'south walls so regular at only five fathpros from the surface. Its underlay, about five feet in the fathom, we consider a good underlay. We agree in the opinion, that you should at once increase your number of workmen, by putting nine men to sink a new shaft, south of the present shaft, so as to take the Lode at twenty fathoms deep, the said shaft to be eight feet long by five feet wide, so as to have room for drawing the water by Whim Barrels, and drawing stuff at the same time if necessary, and also for a footway. We strongly recommend your doing this without loss of time, as the summer season is the best time for accomplish ing such an object. if you are fortunate enough to cut the Lode in this new shaft (as we have every reason to expect) pros perous, we then would say, erect a Steam Engine for draining the .aid Mine, and for - stamping or crushing the Tin stuff, by doing which you will save in carriage to water-stamps, &c. a very considerable suni. We also should not omit saying, that the inclination of the surface to the west of the said shaft is favourable for Metal; this we have observed, in the course of our prailice as Mine A gents; in some of the most extensive Alines in this County. We are, Sir, your most o!vdient Servants, (Signed) . ALEXANDER TEAGUE, NICHOLAS LANGDON, JAMES SOUTUY, JAMES PROUT. liichard Stephens, Es+. - St. Agnes, Bth July. 1836 . Sir,--1 have your rilVOur of the 4th inaiut, if my lab Oil rs by inspecting your Aline at iiny tints, will prornate your interest, I'shall do it with the greatest of pleasure. I have been a practical miner for upwards of forty years, and l'never was so pleasantly disappointed by inSP eet i ag a shallow Mine in all my lifeas I was at the prospects of West St. Autivn Tin Mine, in the Parish of Urotv‘.!! ; neither h ave I ever Rit nessed such strong large Lode, and s otoroductive fo r Tin, at the depth of five fathoms below the surface, as-West St. A u t„- n , If there were a Steam-stamps elected .un the Aline, you m i ght return large quantities of 'cm,. even in this infant state o f the Mine. And 1 think the Lode, when it is explored down iu settled ground, will be found More productive, and the Ti n, that is now scattered throughout th e L 4 ,d,, will he collected into a settled leader, and produce more Tin in a less quantity of work. •I never saw the large COpper Lode that von says is about one hundred f►thoms to, the north of the great Tin Lode. West St. Aubyn Mine. appears to me to be in -a good mining district,- and I would recommend you to open Costeen pits on the back of the great Copper Lode, and every other Lode In the sett. It is ❑ot an uncommon thingtofinn Tin-backs on Copper Lodes, therefore 1 think von may expect, reasonably, to find Tin on the backs of all the Lodes in St. Aubyn Mine. I am, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES PROUT. Wheal Kitty, July 7th, 1836. DEAR am in receipt of your favour, and in reply beg to say, that I never saw a Lode at the present depth SO kindly, and likely to be so productive, as that of West St. Aubyn Mine.

That this meeting, viewing with admiration and surprise the beautiful plan, which combines in itself more of use and advantage to the public at large than perhaps any other ever brought before it, and which, taking advantage of the facilities afforded by nature in a most unlooked for position, will lay the foundation for a Port at the entrance of the Thames, which will s in all probability, by the increase of commerce and population, become of as much importance to London as Liverpool is to Manchester and the large manufacturing towns of the north, and feeling that such a project could not have been matured without considerable time, talent, and labour, the meeting therefore bogs to offer its best thanks to the Provisional Cum , mittee who have so successfully obtained a bill for such a work; and that the sum of £5OO be presented to them as an acknow ledgment for their past services, to be applied in such manner as they themselves shall think fit. 4. That in consideration of the labour and trouble the Pro prietors anticipated from the Court of Directors in the execu tion of the works and attention to their interests, the sum of £l2OO annually be phiced'at their disposal, to be applied in such manner as the Directors themselves shall think fit. The Chairman returned thanks on the part of the other Di rectors and himself, and said, that they having anticipated the probability of some similar proposal, had concurred with him self in an unanimous resolve, that while they would gladly and with pride accept the remuneration which the Proprietors might propose, they must be allowed to do so upon an express condi tion, that until the works should actually begin they should re ceive nothing ; it being sufficient for them when that beginning should be made, that the grant should be accepted as voted, which was from the present day. That unless business should be eventually done there would be no remuneration received. 5. The thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to the different Officers of the Company. (Signed) HORACE TWISS, Chairman. 6. On the Chair being vacated, "The thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to the Chairman for his able conduct in the Chair." HENRY AMSINCK. Secretary.

A Conservative Association has been lately instituted at Davenport, the members of which are called on to sign a decla ration, "that while they are ready to reform all abuses, they will uphold the constitution in church and state—the just prero gatives of the crown—the privileges of the House of Lords, and the deliberate freedom of the Commons, uninjured."... CHURCH PASTORAL AID SOCIRTY.—On Thursday evening last a public meeting was held at the Music-hall, Newcastle, for 1 the purpose of forming a local auxiliary association to this in valuable institution. Long before thelimeapPointed for taking the chair the room was crowded to excess, and the most intense interest was evinced in the proceedings until the close of the meeting, at half-past ten in the evening. On the platform (which was crowded with auditors) besides the Bishop of Chester, a great number of reverend gentlemen were there; and, besides those who were present, a great number of both lay and clerical friends were, from the unavoidable shortness of the notice, prevented from being present. The Vicar of Newcastle was called to the chair.. A variety of resolutions, expressive of the objects of the asspciation—" to employ all suitable means to Oxtend the influence and increase the efficiency of the church of England"—Were ae'reed to, after having been warmly support ed by the rev. gentlenien present. The utmost enthusiasm and . ardour in the cause pervaded all the speeches delivered, and a large sum was collectedlor the purposes of the society. A . great sensation has been caused in the village of ToVil near Maidstone, by a tragical event. The deceased is the second wife of a man named Covis, who is of 'a fierce and vio lent disposition. Three weeks after their marriage it was reported in the neighbourhood that she was heard to cry out " murder," in consequence of his violent ill treatment, and it is also said he had - often threatened to murder her. On Satur day se'nuight the deceased went into Maidstone and purchased some meat, which she carried home and cooked ,for her hus band's supper. After supper they went up stairs to bed, and shortly afterwards the neighbours heard cries of distress pro ceeding from the house, as well as struggling and heavy fall. A number of persons collected round the door, which they burst open, and found Covis ready to receive them, who threatened to • knock down the first who attempted to enter. Ile, in fact, carried his threat into _ execution, but several other persons rushed into the house, and the poor woman was found at the bottom of the stairs, apparently dead. Being raised in the arms of one of the persons who had entered, she sighed once, and instantly expired. The inquest was held on Monday even ing, at the Royal Paper Mill, covil, but there were so many, witnesses to examine that it was adjourned.—Morniny Herald. REV. DR. Coom—At the close of his eloquent sPeeeh at the Protestant Meeting, held at Glasgow on Wednesday night, , Dr. Cooke made the following remarks on the influence of in dividual exertion in the cause of Pro,testantism:—" Let me conclude by pressing upon you one consideration. No man knows what one man can do. There was a glorious city, the seat of a monarch, where he was surrounded by his nobles and his counciihrs, having in their hearts the purpose to strangle' infant. Protestantism. On the main street of that city there appeared an old man, with a long grey beard, streaming down his venerable breast, and grey hairs waving on his brow—one arm supported on a stag, and the other leant upon a servant. llot an observant man marked him, and ran down to where the Conned was sitting re check the career of Protestantism. Ile made his way into the Council and exclaimed, 'John Knox is come !"Ilie Council took the alarm. John Knox tra , come indeed! He mounted the pulpir—the plaided Scotsmen ga thered around him. The fire of his eloquence communicated itself to their previously cold hearts, and the power of Divine truth to their doubtful understandings—Protestantism rose in its power—Scotland rose in her majesty and mi g ht— an d Pro testantism triumphed' by the return of a feeble old man."

BAvoNate, SEPT. 20.-On the 'morning of the 13th General Oraa marched out of Mendabia with a column of 5000 infantry and 300 cavalry, together with two pieces of artillery. He pro ceeded.to Los Arcos, which . placed he reached, having been subjected on his march to a constant fire from guerrillas, which ' di7lltim little harm. - He immediately resolved to detach a body of 2000 infantry to the heights of the Hermitage of San Gregerio, which wet e in the - possession of the Carlists, and Which welt (le fendedby. the 6th battalion of Navarre, and 250 of the Algerine deserters. 'The attack began by the Christinos sending on seve ral detatchinents in front of the,-force under cover of their fire. These detatchments were repulsed by the Carlists. The engage ment soon became general, the vollies being sustained in turn by the companies for nearly two hours. The determined cou rage of the sixth battalion of Navarre, and the Algerines, how ever, compelled the Christinos to cease the attack, and to re tire to Los Arens, leaving 30 dead on the field; their: wounded amounted to $0 men. The Carlist loss was 20 killed and 60 wounded. The Christinos pillaged on. the same day, several houses, which had been deserted by their occupants (on the ap proach of the troops,) who had ilea to the mountains. On the I,lth Oraa marched with his columns towards Arroniz, where the CarliA General Dun J. Garcia was stationed with the Ist. 2d, and 31 battalions of Navarre Guides; the 4th reformed, and the 7th, 9th, 11th, and 12th regiments, the sth regiment of • Biscay aus, the 34 of Castile, anitthree.squadrons of cavalry, with two pieces of artillery, wer e al so u n d er G enera l G arc i a ' s command. Early in the mornipg of the 14th the columns of Iribaren and Lebean, the first nembering 1500 infantry, 701) horse, and two guns, the second the two battalions of Ale•iers, five battalions of troops.of the line, one of Chapeigoris, and a squadron of horse, marchal from. Leda and Larrago to join Orates column in the real from Sesma to Arruniz. The three generals marched iu front to t ;it last p6int. At nine in the morning the fire began at the entrance of Arroniz ;7it was maintained by the Carlists for three hours, but at last the village was taken by the Christinos, who forced all the'positions. The fire was continued by the Carlists in retir ing to Estella, and on the heights of Montejura. The village. of Arroniz• was pillaged, and several houses were burnt. Two pieces of Artillery were • placed by the Christiuos on the Her mitage and on the heights of Arroniz. The numerous case shots which they fired thence annoyed the.Carlists very much. On the left wing, the cavalry of the Queen charged twice on the village of Igurquira, and by that means, the action becom ing general, the Carlists retired along the whole line (firing by platoons) to the wood of Trache and to the village of Ayegui, about three-quarters of a mile from Estella. The loss of the Carlists is 240 men killed, arnongst whom were ten. officers of all grades, and'-10,) wounded, amongst whom are 12 officers and a colonel.:. They have lost also about 5)) prisoners. It is said that the loss of the Christinos is 160 men killed, of whom five are officers, and at least three hundred wounded, who were transported to Lerin and Puente la Reyna on the 19th of this month. On the night of the 14th the constitutional troops entered the villages of Dicastello, Afellano, Maniac, and Alberin, in the valley of Solana. On the 15th, after. havingpillaged the houses of the families which had fled, they burnt ten houses in Mimi ani, and went to Oveza, about a league and a half from Estella, iii hopes to explore, on the 16th, the villages of Cirangui and Manera, and some other points of the Carlist line. On the 13th and 14th, the tribunals and Carli?t juntas quitted the town of Estella, with all their most precious effects. A detachment of 5(1 men only remained in the fortress of Piu; all the sick and wounded of the hospital of Troche left also, except those who were too ill to be removed. On the night of the 14th, several wounded Carlists, with three battalions, came to take up their quarters in Estella. On the 15th instant, 17 soldiers of the National Guards ap peared before the Carlists in Estella. General Garcia gave them the reward which he had promised for such an attempt. General Iturralde went to surrender himself in the castle of Guebarra, asking of Don Carlos the favour of being tried by a council of war. The Pretender arrived at Estella on the 27th, at three o'clock in the afternoon. Villareal had entered the same town ou the 16th. He had but three battalions with him. The letters of the 12th from Barcelona, written by the secre tary of General 11iva, announced that he was at the point of death at the departure of the courier. AMERICA-UNITED STATES. The tVeu. York Monday Courier of the 3d. instant contains an account of a battle fought in Mexico on the 14th of July, ut Ethla, between the government troops of that republic, consist ing of nine hundred men and three pieces of artillery, under the command of General Canalize, and the Federal troops (Revolutionsts,) amounting to six hundred men, commanded by General Alavado. The action is represented to have lasted half an hour, when the Revolutionists were completely routed, and their commander taken prisoner, with three of the principal officers, who were shot the next morning in the public square. The loss of the government troops was comparatively small. The interior of Mexico was said to be in a very agitated state, and the central government was kept in a continual state of alarm by the dread of the revolutionary movements. The Washington Globe of the 31st ult., states that by recent intelligence received from Bogota, New Granada, it appeared that immediate arrangements were about being made for cutting a canal across the isthmus of Panama; the project had long been talked of, but was now likely to be practically realized. Several English inhabitants of Bogota had come forward with pecuniary assistance for its completion, and many natives of character and capital, besides Americans, were eager to possess the credit of setting the work going. The Isthmus is about 20 miles across, and presents no obstacles that may not be over come easily and expeditiously. The government of New Gra nada seemed much disposed to encourage this undertaking, being anxious that this narrow neck of land, which separates two great oceand and interposes a barrier to commercial euterprize, should be thrown open to science and industry. The New York papers were engagei t t e in discussing the neces sity of having a police for that city, (*drilled on the plan of the London police. 'rho existing force is denounced as being very inefficient for the safety or the protection of this city. One of the papers says:—"A police organised on a regimental s)stern 2 with different grades, promotion to accompany activity and good conduct, the members of which should be totally independentof the changes of party, on duty through the whole twenty-four hours, and funds provided for the prosecution of offenders would give to the inhabitants of this great city that safety and security which they have a right to expect, and which is essentially ne cessary to its prosperity." The intelligence from Texas represents that district of coun try as returning to a state of comparative order and quiet. An election for President was about to take place, for which there were three candidates. A newspaper, called the Columbia Tele graph, had been establi s h e d, w hi c h conta i ne d a goo d, d ea l o f useful matter relative to the internal affairs of the country. General Austin is the most popular candidate for the office of President. The following extract of a letter from Galveston Island embraces the most prominent points arising out of the present peculiar position. A report that Santa Anna had es caped, and that the President.ad interim was about to be irn peac turns out to be unfounded : "Both Santa Anna and Almon le are still at Columbia. There is nothing yet decided as to their fate. My impression is that both will be spared, though their chance is much more doubtful than it was two months ago There has been some stir and confusion of late between the army and cabinet. All is set tled down, however, quietly and tranquilly. A report has just reached us that, so f ar f rom t h e Mexican troops at Metunioras invading Texas, they have disbanded, and scattered off in vari ous directions. We are preparing to give them a warm recep tion if they come, a'nd such a defeat as Mexico never met with before. lam inclined to think we shall not have much more fighting to the northward of the Rio Grande." Business at New York was tolerably brisk; but money con tinues scarce, and in demand. The rates of exchange had va ried but little during the preceding six weeks. The transac tions for the packet of the Ist instant were chiefly at 71 per cent., on England. Bills on Harnburgh and Bremen were scarce. FOREIGN MISCELLANY. Frank fort letters, of the 17th instant, refer to the disturbancet which, from other sources, we bad learned had taken place as Coburg. The Swiss question was assuming a grave aspect. The Gazette de France asserts that the hermetical blockade of the cantons, threatened by France, had already commenced. Letters from Lyons, of the 20th instant, announce, that " a considerable fall. amounting almost to a panic, had taken place in the price of silks. It was attributed to the scarcity of money, which has of late been felt in that city. Discount is very high, and obtaindd with difficulty. The principal cause of this crisis is owing to the delay of the merchants from the United States in forwarding large remittances due to our commercial houses, and, perhaps, also, but merely for a time, to the obligation un der which the founders of the hank are to pay in their share of the capital (2,000,000 f.) ou the Ist of October."—Courrier Francais. The Augsburg Gazette announces, under date Constantinople, 31st ult., that, agreeably to the convention concluded by the Russian Legation and the Sublime Porte, the latter had paid 60,000 purses, (2S0.000,) being the remainder of the war in demnity due to Russia. AMSTERDAm, September 22.—About half-past twelve o'clock in the night afire broke out, which was more fatal than any we [Jaye had for some., time.

COLONIAL. INTELLIGENCE, Thf„accounts from the Canadas are not of any political mo ment, and, in fact, party feeling appears to have much abated. The wheat harvest had-commenced in the lower province, and was anticipated to be a fair averag►e, with but little exception, throughout the province; feed for cattle was very scarce. The following is the comparative statement of the arrivals at Quebec to the 14th of August:— Vessels. Tonnage.

His Excellency the Governor, Lord Sligo, had just returned from a voyage to St. Domingo, in the Dee steamer. The description of the town of Hayti, which was given by his Lordship, was of the most deplordble character. A serious dispute had taken place between his Lordship and two of the highest legal officers of the islancL arising out of some misinterpretation of the special instructions which lie had promulgated for their guidance in the administra tion of the abolition laws. The private letters do not add to our previous information with regard to the crops; but the appren tices are• said to continue well behaved. The exports from Kingston, from ...he Ist of January to the 31st of July, 1836, were-15,111 Mids. ' 1,058 tierces, and 453 barrels of sugar; 6,980 - tierces an d 1,731 lbs. of coffee; 3,632 puncheons of rum, and 176 hhds. ; and 1,162 bags of pimento. We have received by the Apt India packet papers from Bar badoes to the 6th August; Trinidad, St Kitts, and other papers have also been received. In the House of Assembly at Barba -1 does it had been announced - that the king had been pleased to appoint the Governor, Sir - Lionel Smith, to the Government of Jamaica, and the house expreSsed its high sense. of the merits of that functionary.- Great inconvenience was felt at . Barbadoes from a scarcity of s:uail money. The hurricane seascn had commenced in this colony, - after a few days of intense 'heat the wind having blown with extreme violence. From Dominica we learn that a message had been sent down to the assembly stating that the governor in future would be at Liverpool to appoint his Privy Council Members of the Assembly, and he - had lost no time in availing himself of the privilege, having named the speaker to that di g nity forthwith. Th e A n ti gua papers announce the arrival there of the Lieutenant Governor, who had addressed the House of Assembly. We learn from our-Toronto papers that the Right Hon. Ed ward Ellice arrived in that city on the Bth inst. Mr. Ellice and his family have been long and intimately connected with the political and commercial affairs of the Canadas. He is the owner of a rich and extensive seignory in Lower Canada, and of other lands in this province and the neighbouring state. On our return front England we gave him credit for liberal intentions towards the colonists, but are recently inclined to believe that • the tory measures of our new governor and his Canada Com pany advisers have his approbation.

The stock of Flour on hand was exceedingly small, and the demand great. The continued delay in the June Butter kept the market in an unsettled state. Corn was very scarce. A sale of Brandy had been made at 15s. Calve papers have arrived to the Ist of July. A public meet ing was held at Cape Town on the 29th of June, under the sanction of the Governor, for the purpose of expressing the sense of the inhabitants on the proposed Bill for the establish ment of municipal corporations throughout the colony. The meeting sought to impress upon his Excellency the expediency of a separate ordinance for the formation of a municipal board for Cape Town and its vicinity. The town to be divided into wards or districts the commissioners to have the power to collect taxes, administer municipal property, and exercise all the functions hitherto exercised by the Burgher Senate. The accounts from Graham's Town speak of frequent robberies and other outrages: the perpetrators, however, were unconnected with the Caffre chiefs and people. These papers also contain the prospectus of the Cape of Good Hope Steam Navigation Company, capital £20,000, in two thousand shares of LIO each, deposit £1 per share. We have late advices from Bombay. A public meeting had been held, to attract the attention of the Government in Eng land,to the importance of steam navigation between England and India, and a petition to the House of Commons was unani mously adopted. The reports from the Persian Gulf received at Bombay were not of a pleasing character. The Chief of the Wahabees bad shown symptoms of discontent. He had summoned all the chiefs on the Arabian side of the Gulf to meet him, and it was intended to form some general confederacy for piratical as well as other purposes. The Nerbudda had arrived at Bombay from surveying the river Indus, which river was found to contain much less water than was anticipated. The Nerbudda would, however, resume the examination at the end of the monsoon. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. On Sunday morning, about half-past four o'clock, a-general alarm of fire eastward was conveyed to the firemen all over the metropolis from the appearance of the heavens, but no certain information having reached several of the stations as to the locality where the flames raged, the engines were driven at con jecture, some passing. down to Ratcliff, and others along the Commercial-road. The fire proved to be at the extensive rice mills and granary, at the head of the Grand Surrey Canal, where, before the engines could be brought, the flames had gained a fearful ascendancy. Mr. Braidwood, the superintendent, who came with the engines from Watling-street, had been misled into a belief that the fire was on the Middlesex side of the river, and on finding his mistake, he, with his party, crossed the water leaving directions for the engines to be brought round as early as possible. The float which lies off the river in this part was fortunately got to the spot at an early period, and from its im mense powers was of great service. Besides the float, ten other of the establishment engines, and forty of the men, were with as little delay as possible got to the spot, and an abundance of water being obtainable from the canal, no expense was spared in employing extra men to keep all the engines in incessant aud full play. An engine belonging to the West of England Com pany was present assisting. The damage done is fearfully great. The whole of the valuable and extensive mills, with the machi nery therein, are burnt down, and the granary adjoining is ex tensively damaged. The premises and property are fortunately , insured to a large amount in the Sun, Phcenix, Atlas, and Protector Offices. The property destroyed was situate about the middle of the dock enclosure between the basin where the shipping lay and the Surrey Canal. The mill was of great extent, and formed the end of a range of buildings used principally as granaries, which were erected nearly flush with the water edge. It was the property of Messrs. Ewbank and Cordes, and was built about twenty years back, when the docks were first formed. It was a brick erection of great height, and contained a powerful steam engine, with much valuable machinery for grinding rice and other grain. The whole of this property is an entire ruin ; the lofty wall next the water side suddenly upheaved from its foun dation about eight o'clock in the morling, and fell over into the canal, fortunately doing no personal Injury in its fall. The opposite front was pulled down by Messrs. Ewbank and Cordes's workmen, assisted by the firemen. Nothing remains of the mill but the furnace shaft, which is of great height,-and has a dan gerous appearance. The damage, which is wholly confined to he premises of Messrs. Ewbank and Cordes, is estimated at be ween £15,000 and £20,000. — Times of Monday. TRADE, COMMERCE, &c. THE TEA TRADE, MONDAY.--The clearances last week were nearly 115600,000. The trade is rather dull. The quantity of private trade teas declared for the next series of sales amounts to about 50,000 packages. A letter of the 21st instant, 'rum Lyons, says, " There is a great fall in the price of silk, which is attributed to the scarcity of money. Discount is at a very high rate, and cash for bills is obtained with great difficulty. The princ►pal cause of this is want of remittances from the United States; perhaps, also, it may in some measure be attributed to the necess►ty of the shareholders of the Bank providing their capital of 2,000,000 francs by October 1." INDIGO PROSPECTS.—AIthough we have had a scorching sun (with one exception) during the last fortnight in Calcutta, the indigo planters in many parts of the country; we - hear, have bad rain enough to save their plant. On the 25th and 26th, there was rain at Rauleah and all over Kishnagar. Letters from Bowsing also report showers there also. At Suksangor, there was a smart shower on the 23d. Towards Monghyr, we are told, the plant has also a thriving appearance; but many complaints of drought arrive from Dacca and Myrnunsing, where, in general, too much rain is apprehended.—Calcutta Courier, May 3. As a proof of the great increase in the consumption of teas, and the advantage which has accrued to the government by the opening of the trade, a statement has been prepared, by which it appears that, during the seven months ending the sth of August, 1835, the amount of teas imported was tb21,011,000, the duty upon which was £2,189,000. During the same period of 1836, the amount of teas imported was ib36,650.000, on which the duty was £3.468,000, being an increase of tb15,000,000 of teas, and £1,27%000 in the duties.-- Times. BEETILOOT SUG A 11.—A refinery of sugar from the beetroot is being trectea at Thames Bank, - Chelsea, which, it is expected, will be in operation in about six weeks. In the vicinity of the metropolis, during the past summer, a great many acres of land have been put into cultivation with the root—at Wandsworth, and other places. The machinery will be principally on the plans of the vacuum pans, and a pure refined sugar will be pro - - (laced from the juice by the first process of evaporation, after it has simply undergone the process of decolorization. Another part of the premises is appropriated to the manufactory of coarse brown paper from the refuse, in which it is extensively used in France. Considerable interest is excit e d i n the agri culturalu districts on the subject of the manufacture, and the de ficiency of supply of this important branch of colonial produc tiontiicmhphoarstabnetetsitiflellatiltuhse ltaostolieisw new branch i a s v. e ri x c p u e i c tu te r d ai As the different varieties of beet are indigenous to Sigiidlleeussaitlyand the northern parts of Europe there can be no doubt but that the saccharine products of the root cultivated in this country will be equal to that of France, where it is attended with so much success and profit. In case the government do no t interfere, and, by rendering tit Z product exciseable, retard or prohibit its manufacture, several individuals have it in con templation to establish refineries in different parts of the king dom for purifying sugar, which may be-produced in agricultur al districts for domestic or individual use. A refinery has lately been established at B e lf ast, i n the v i c i n i ty o f w hi ch town upwards of 200 acres of land have been put in cultivation with the beetroot for the manufacture of sugar.—Morniny Po4t. A PIOUS CLERGY AND SENTIMENTAL FLOCK.—We borrow the following from the Constitutionnel and Droit of Tuesday : The curate of St. Roch has just bought a little piece of oak, being a fragment of the real cross. This precious relic will on Thursday be exhibited to the veneration of the faithful. On that day, says the programme. the curates and clergy of St. Etienne and St. Laurent will proceed on a pilgrimage to St. Roch. Next day will be the turn of St. Med. Saturday the curate of Vangerard and the whole seminary of St. Sulpice will visit St. Roth. Lastly, on the 19th, 20th, and 21st it will be the turns of Notre Dame de Lorette, St. Eustache, and St. Medard. Are we in the middle ages? What, a piece of the real cross! 'There is enough in more than two thousand churches to build a cathedral! On the night of the 2d August some debauched young men entered the cemetery of Louhans, provided with a lantern, several tapers, bread, wine, &c. They placed their lights round a cross, and indulged in scandalous orgies, accom panied with impious and obscene songs. They next got upon several tombs, summoned the dead beneath to appear, and vociferated songs of the most disgusting obscenity; it is even said that one of those mad youths carried his contempt of all human feeling so far as to proceed to the spot where his own brother had been recently interred to mix his name with their drunken songs, and to invite him-to their infamous banquet. For this outrage four of these worthies , : , ere sentenced, on the 31 September, to three months imprisor.ment and a fine of sixteen francs. THEATRE-ROYAL. LIVERPOOL FOR THE BENEFIT OF MRS.

The French papers of Monday contain no fresh news of importance. The most important topic of discussion during the preceding week is the assembling of an am. bassadorial congress at Paris, a step which appears to be absolutely rendered necessary by the revolutionary feeling which pervades the whole of the western Euro pean continent. The organ of M. Guizot's party, Le Paix, had already formally announced this project. The Ztfoniteur states that the Madrid government has dismissed General Aldarna from his command, and ap pointed Gurrea iu his stead. The camp marshal, Serrano, to the political department of the interior. The Phare de Bayonne announces the junction of Gomez with Cabre ra and the chiefs Serrador, Juilez, and Esperanzo. The fortified town of Regerena had been occupied previously by his forces. Don Carlos had not left Estella; but be had despatched a fresh expedition of 2,000 men to Arra gon, under the command of Pablo Lanz, his camp marshal. From Portugal, we have no fresh intelligence. We may here add, that the present French government has given positive orders for the immediate disbanding of the legion assembled at Pau. M. Bidand, a superior i p Meer., attached t o th e war d epartment, had arrived at "Bayonne, charged with this duty. Alas ! poor Lord Palmerston ! We would advise your making terms with Don Carlos, or the "destiny which watches over Spain" will elude your vigorous grasp ! Mr. Edward Baines, of Leeds, proprietor of the "Mer cury," and whig member in parliament for that borough, has given the blustering demagogue, the King of the Justice Association, his dose. Whatever striking differ ences of opinion exist between Mr. Baines and ourselves in politics, we rejoice to find, that he has come forward, with the true spirit of a man, and sustained the honour of the English gentleman, by the castigation he has in flicted on that untamed and dishonourable disturber, who, not content with keeping his " unfortunate country "' in one perpetual fever of turmoil and agitation, has the stupid ignorance, and the consummate impudence, to imagine, that he may with impunity beard every man, and no matter of what rank or station in our English so ciety, with his vulgar sarcasm, and coarse obloquy, who may presume to post himself in the gap he has opened, for the avowed purpose of levelling our best Institu tions with the dust. The assumptions of this braggart asserter of undefined Justice are upon a par with his total indifference to the ordinary usages of civilized life, —affecting to feel sensibly the reproofs given to himself, for his many gross provocations, lie yet cuts away with the scalping knife of his malignant detraction, and whilst pleading for " freedom of conscience," and " freedom of opinion," insolently denies the right of private judg ment—the exercise of independent thought, to every man who may possess the wisdom and the manhood to dispute his pretensions, or to disclaim his dark policy. This is precisely the case of Mr. Baines, as he states in his becoming answer, usually voting with his antagonist, on the general number and principle of the measures brought forward by their united party, or the govern ment they support. We cannot possibly feel any com miseration for the whigs generally, nor individually, under the punishment they have justly brought upon themselves, by an alliance offensive and defensive with a man, who has put himself out of the pale of all con sideration as a rational being —as an unreasonable despot in argument, and a tyrant in practice, making himself, under a false plea, irresponsible for what ever injury he may please .eventually to inflict on others, whilst eternally talking " responsibility " ! His insolence, however, in this instance, will be productive of one practical good,—it will, if it has not already, remove the bandage from Mr. Baines's eyes entirely, and from the eyes of others, who have had the folly and the meanness to suffer themselves to be first hoodwinked, by this Ostler of a government, which have submitted to have the curb-bit put into its mouth, with tacit docility, that noble animals would never have en dured, but kicked him to merited destruction. "Blind Baines of Leeds"—(Mr. Daniel O'Connell's elegant phrase) at ali events, it would appear, now sees his man with a lucid eye; and, we think, that he bids fair to prove a match for Daniel in gentlemanly discussion, though we very much doubt the equal strength of his competitorship, with the shaft of blackguardisnt. One con solation remains for society, —common nuisances like the individual moral pest, of whom we treat, exist but for a time,—Providence has kindly limited their mischievous duration to a span,—they " strut and fret their hour," and are seen and heard no more ; whilst the re-action of reason disperses the vapour of their ephemeral insignifi cance. They are, strictly, what the arch satirist 'Voltaire described, and nothing more-"the stinging two-I , gged Pismires of a day " ! ! . . We have thus freely discussed the relative position of Mr. Edward Baines, M.P. and Mr. Daniel O'Connell, as supreme dictator for all Ireland ; we now come to an ex traordinary contrast, in the . person of Mr. Wentworth Beaumont, the whig member for South Northumberland, and we find this gentleman, rich in consistency, stultify ing his own freely-expressed opinions relative to the dangerous course of the said Daniel—here are the two Abbots fraternising in true revolutionary style—here is the Abbot of Hexham and the Abbot of Derrynane in fraternal hug, a choice subject for " H. 13. ;" the Abbot of Hexharn presenting his expiation to his superior in the shape of a hundred pound penance offering to the " justice rint," and " buying a truce" from the holy men dicant disciple of Saint Ignatius ! There is no account ing for the glaring inconsistency and folly of public men ; and here is a choice specimen of the difficulty we critics of the mighty press have to encounter, in our diurnal vocation, that of fathoming the incongruities of the human character—of showing that common sense and common honesty are really rare ingredients in the mental compo sition of those who set themselves up to be arbiters of the destinies of their fellow-mortals, in a state of political society. When we consider that hardly a short twelve month has elapsed since this very gentleman, the pro prietor of a lordly domain at Hexhatn Abbey, publicly and severely reprobated the conduct of the " missionary" mountebank, in his itinerary career through the -provin- ces of England, and although the language, course:and SEPT. au , conduct of the said worthy persomge now manifests the self same cynanthropy, as shown by his attack on Mr. Baines, Mr!:. tien t worth Beaumont is blind enough to write to him, and e2Tress his concurrence and approbation, and to make his peace by the enclosure of a cheque for £lOO ! The explanation given by this independent gentleman in his letter, is altogether the most preposterous we ever remember to have read, as coming from an otherwise presumed sensible man. He (Mr. Wentworth Beau mont) prefaces that letter by admitting that " he spoke very unceremoniously of the expediency (! ) of his, Mr. Daniel O'Connell's, agitation in England, from a convic tion that he was doing a practical injury to the cause of liberty—(to the cause of whiggery, if you please, Mr. Beaumont !)—and adds, "So when I now see you pro ceeding in a right course, I do not hesitate, with equal frankness, to offer you my humble assistance!" Admi rable patriotic consistency ! worthy this of the pen of the Christian who shall condescend to record the doings of the whig legion of 1836 ! So strong is the conviction of Mr. Wentworth Beaumont, under his early conversion. that he has discovered an angel where he lately beheld a being- of an entirely opposite character ; and he is re " solved not to be outdone, even by the church-property loving Duke of Bedford, and he frees himself from the political anathema of the reclaimed papal saint, by pur chasing his forbearance fot one hundred pounds ! All this is certainly very complimentary to the chief instigator of Ireland's woes ; but for the very life of us, we are totally unable to discover any, the least, differ ence in the position of the amiable Knight of Kerry this year, to that he filled last,—he is, to all intents and pur poses, the same brawling designing mischievous agent, armed only with a new power of his own creation, to which Mr. Beaumont bows submission, and pays pecu niary homage. He is the same propounder of Organic Change—the same advocate for aggression against the House of Lords, and the same temporary defender of the entire negation of all principle, which stamps the Whig government, as he was on his English tour, with this difference merely, that he (against himself) is shorn of some of his " laurels"—his capability of working evil, by the general burst of indignation, with which his mendicancy and his objects were met in England by all classes. We therefore, come to the quality of Mr. Wentworth Beaumont's patriotism at once, and sorry are we to be compelled to exhibit it in a light which does not redound to his advantage. It may be, that he fancies some small atonement is due to his Pro tog**, and his justice association, for the hasty opi nions he, Mr. Beaumont, expressed at the Whig-radical meeting at Edinburgh ; or that, with more probability, he has had a gentle hint from Russell head -quarters, that he must sustain the falling interests of Whiggery, by the registration crusade in Ireland, as the Ministerial " for lorn hope," which we have already declared it to be but, this " barking of your friends" will not palliate the tergiversation of a man placed in Mr. Beaumont's situa tion, nor excuse the compromise of his independence, at the cost of his consistency—his reputation, as an En glishman, ncr be compensated by being made one of the first members of Mr. Daniel O'Connell's elective irresponsible Peerage ! There has been a great fuss relative to the aqair be . _ _ tween the Courier, London newspaper, and Lord Nugent, the "heavy whig dragoon of Buckinghamshire," and lately Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Isles, in which have figured Mr. James Stuart, managing proprietor of the said journal and new factory commissioner, Mr. Pearce, his solicitor, Mr. Coles, the solicitor of Lord Nugent, Lord John Russell, his Majesty's Secretary for the Home Department, and Lord Holland, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster. In consequence of some scan dal, or alleged scandal, published in the Courier upwards of twelve months back, Lord Nugent, it appears, instructed his solicitor to bring an action, upon which his lordship's right valiant and noble friends threw themselves into the breach, and essayed a fusilade of epistolary corre spondence against the Courier proprietor and factory commissioner, the cabinet ministers deeming it utterly inexpedient that the " sayings and doings" of the Lord High Commissioner, nothwithstanding his lordship's ire, should be brought before the public gaze and scrutiny by the perseverance of the ungrateful factory commissioner; and, whetheritrue or untrue, that the peccadilloes of their noble friend should be made the subject of vulgar discus sion, to the disparagement of the high morality of the entire whig-radical cabinet ! Hence there has been a negotiation to effect a compromise between the high and hostile functionaries, and consultations and legal coquet ting, consequent thereupon, in the first place, and in the second, on the part of the noble interposing arbiters, an attempt to shut out the lawyers altogether, which the sound lawyers, to their credit be it spoken, did not tamely succumb to, feeling that they ought not to be thrust out of court so ungenteelly, their case and briefs being ready cut and dry for counsel, and the learned wigs of West minster Hall being in full expectation, that some special retainers, as hinted, would speedily drop in. Thus we have full - five columns of Monday's Morning Post taken up with this stupid unmeaning correspond ence, which one would imagine the lively lord of Holland House had adroitly concocted with his liberal associate, under the hope that its publication would draw off the attention and divert the public eye from the more onerous position of the whig cabinet. We give Lord Holland great credit for his ruse on this occasion, hut will not compromise our own credit by inflicting on our readers a perusal, in detail, in our columns, the letters which hive passed to and fro between the two cabinet minis ters and the new commissioner of one of them, on this occasion. They possess no public interest what ever, beyond that inspired by the ridiculous ; and whilst this great and intelligent people have vital interests at stake, demanding a lofty bearing and statesmanlike deportment, we enjoin our conservative friends to have a steady eye to the " fugleman," and leave the " bats" and the "owls," and the lovers of scan. mag. and twaddle, to satiate their appetites on this paltry feast. In the same way may we treat the correspondence which has passed between Lord John Russell and Mr. Silk Buckingham ; but there is one value in this which does not exist in the other, and that is, it gives a further exposition of the utter worthlessness of Whig faith, in its modern flimsy covering of assumed liberality—we leave our readers to draw their own inferences—from the letters of Lord J. Russell, we have published in the latter case, their silky glossing will not hide their breach of faith nor their want of honour, whatever may be our objections to the general polities of Mr. Silk Buckingham. Since . writing the preceding we find that the celebrated Mr, Joseph Parkes, the union lawyer and corporation com missioner, has finally treated the difference between the Courier and Lord Nugent. We understand, that the independent Whig Electors of Cornwall have sent a requisition to the Tory Lord Eliot, inviting his lordship to stand for that division of the county, in the looked-for event of a vacancy ; and as it has been hinted, that Major- General Palmer, the wbig member for Bath, also " wishes to retire," the friends of Sir W. Molesworth have been feeling the pulse of the "liberals" in that borough. The worthy General, it is said, has reflected upon the demonstration made by Sir George Strickland at Leeds, and the modera tion of his friends, Mr. Ayshford Sandford, and Colonel Tynte, at Taunton; and he begins to doubt the expe diency- of the extreme measures propounded, or more probably, the power of Messrs. Melbourne and Co. to perform their contract ; and repudiating the notion o f a woeful minority, has resolved to effect a retreat without sound of drum ! We are uncommonly amused at the quandary in which we are assured the "powers that be" find themselves placed. There is a great deal of smug gling going on, but we have our " scouts" on the alert, and assure out conservative friends that nothing is re quired b u t s t ea dy an d un fli nc hi ng perseverance . Our Newton display has already done wonders, as may be gathered from the speeches at Wicklow, and the spleen developed. We mean nothing personal towards the Irish nation—we take her in her m o ral and political state, and maintain that, under the domination of a tyrannous priesthood, bigotted, selfish, and uncotn,- promising, and under the- uncultivated condition of Poo the to a to h mor of t nun: lltic gen min at ti sofa that of Oc the n conse
