certain extent, but it was not all truth ; for, by the gene_ ral principle of action in this world, they knew that pre vention was better than cure. They were told that supply and demand would adjust themselves, but he considered that it would be wiser and better to prevent a scarcity, than to wait for the remedy:of its evil by natural causes when it arose. Through the agency of the association it would be sought to prevent the continuance of those evils which had for some time past threatened the country in relation to the supply of cotton. Their first object would be to draw general attention to the subject they were that day debit ing; and to endeavour to enlist the co-operation of the gentlemen connected with the trade. What the cause • Of their apathy was he could not say. His belief was that their apathy arose from the fact of their not having Calculated the danger. He would not attribute to them the motive, because he believed they were superior to it, that they preferred cotton at 9d than 4cl; . still, he thought that cotton at 91 a lb. was, to a certain extent, a very satisfactory thing, and caused them to be less anxious in relation to that inquiry than they otherwise would be. Mr. Bushell then reviewed all that had been advanced during the day—the suitability of India to the growth of cottoe, the richness of British Demerara, and the want of free labour there—and urged that the resources of these countries would be pressed on the government by the Association. He dwelt on the fact that while we abolished sla very in our colonies, we indirectly encouraged It in other countries, and urged that as the mission of the Anglo Saxon race was to civilise the world. it would be beat, most successfully, and most speedily effected by the promotion of the growth of cotton in the manner pro posed throughout the world, whose physical extent, he observed, was now pretty well known, but the full extent of whose products had yet to be discovered. (Hear, hear.) i Mr. RstrAy having' been called upon to second the reso lution, said, that when the association was established, he believed that they would, if they required it, have good security 'or a good and efficient supply of cotton. He contended that they should be enabled to get that supply, and then it would be to the advantage, and add to the happiness, of the whole world, and particularly to Liver pool and other districts in Lancashire. So much'having been said already on the subject, he would not detain them with any further remarks, but to express his dissent to the opinions which had been given by Mr. Bushell, with regard to slavery. He conclnded by seconding the adoption of the resolution. The resolutions was then put from the chair and unani mously adopted. The CHAIRMAN then briefly pointed out the great exer tions that Mr M‘Gregor Laird had been making in the African trade, and to the samples of flax exhibited in the room by Mr. Smith, expressing it as his opinion that, to each of these gentlemen, the town was much indebted for their exertions and enterprise. A gentleman here expressed it as his opinion, that there was an omission in the rwolutions, as it did not name the five gentlemen to forth the committee. Too CHAIRMAN explained that it was the intention of the association to solicit the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. the chairman of the east and West Indian Association; and the chairman of the African A.ssociation, but it would be necessary for these gentlemen to obtain the sanction of each of their respective bodies, before their appointment could be confirmed. A vote of thanks was then accord:A to the chairman, and the meeting separated. TREATMENT OF SEAMEN. ON BOARD :IMEIICA.N SHIPS. We (Shipping and Mercantile Gazette) have been favoured witu the following copy of a note addressed by General Cass to Lord Napier, her Majesty's Minister at Washington, in reply to a representation which Lord Napier was instructed by the Earl of Clarendon to address to the United States government relative to the oppressive treatment to which seamen are subjected on board American vessels:— . (Com) Department of State, Washington, April 28, 1857. My Lord, —I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your lordship's note of the 10th inst., stating that the attention of her Majesty's government .and of the British-public has of late ben awakened. to the irregularities attending the enlist ment of seamen on board the mercantile vessels et the United States, and the nature of their treatment when so employed. Your lordship expresses a hope that some remedial measure may be suggested for these abuses. In reply, I have the honour to state that it is believed the laws now in force upon the subject of seamen employed on board the merchant vessels of the United States are quite sufficient for their protection. The execution of these laws in foreign countries for the most part devolves upon consuls. It is passible that these officers may, in some instances, have been delinquent in the discharge of their duty in her Majesty's ports. This department, however, is not aware of any s'sch delinquencies ; but, upon being satisfied of their existence, will no-. hesitate to apply the proper remedy, A copy of the United States' consular regelations is herewith transmitted, and your lordship is particularly referred to the 19th chapter, entitled " Dries of consular officers in relation to seamen of the Unite& States." From the great demand for sailors in our ports, in proportion to their supply, and the im providence and credulity which usually characterises them, they , -are necessarily exposed to imposition to a degree which, pro bably, no laws could prevent. It is presumed that seamen required for the British mercantile marine in her Majesty's own ports are more or less subject to the same grievance. I should be gad to concur in any measures for the relief of this useful class of persons, but the laws of this country intended to prevent their inal-treatment are as effective, it is believed, as those of any other. Instances may have occurred where offenders have escaped punishment, but this, I am persuaded, should be imputed to defective proof or other accident, and not either to any inadequacy in the law itself, or to want of impar tiality in its administration.—l avail myself, &c , LEwis CASS, LONDON COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—JusE 11 BEFORE MR. COMMISSIONER GOULBURN. - In re G. C. FRANGIIIADI.—This was an adjourned certi ficate meeting in the case of the above bankrupt, a merchant of London and Liverpool. Affidavits were filed in support of an immediate judgment ; also in opposition. The latter set forth that Mr. Lizard, banker of Toxenhouse yard, had purchased the bankrupt's draughts for £2,200 upon Messrs. Zinziani. These bills were unaccepted, but Mr. Lizard was led to belieVe that they would be accepted on presentation. Acceptance was afterwards refused on the ground that the bankrupt was a debtor to Messrs. Zinziani. The Commissioner inquired whether there was any reason why the bankrupt's • conduct could not be inquired into as well now as at a future period. Mr. M. Abrahams (for Mr. Lizard) : We have reason to believe that we are on the track of goods—goods that have been concealed. Mr. Lawrence, for the bankrupt, said the Court had the bankrupt's affidavit that at the time the bills were discounted by Mr. Lizard he (the bankrupt) had the authority of Messrs. Zinziani for stating that they would accept the bills.— . The bankrupt had passed his examination. The bankrupt denied the concealment of property, and the Court would not act on a mere sug estion for which there was not the slightest pretence, nis Honour said that, without for one moment intending to convey any i mputation upon the bank ru pt, w h ose con duct oppeared to him, as also to the assignees, clear of blame, he should adjourn the hearingof the application for certificate to the 28 t h o f J uly. Every creditor had a right to put forward his views. The bankrupt with two others had been the members of three firms, and a reasonable time must be allowed to creditors for inquiry. Some dis cuision arose respecting a right of proof against the three estates, Mr. Peaohy appearing for the assignees. His Honour said it did not appear very material against which of the three estates proofs should be preferred, as each este would prob a bl y pay nearly the same amount of atevn—about 28 6d. in the pound. The House of Lords would shortly deliver a judgment which must effect the judgment of this Court. He would therefore adjourn the case until that judgment had been given, unless the creditor should in the meantime elect against which estate he would prove his debt. BEFORE MR. COMMISSIONER EVANS.

THE NORTHERN TIMES.--LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1857, HORRIBLE DETAILS OF THE DEATH OF A SAILOR Yesterday, at the morning sittings before - Mr. Mans field at the police-court, a case, unparalleled (according to the solemn evidence of witnesses, whose testimoiy there is no reason to doubt) for atrocity, was partly investigated, but as the details speak for themselves, comment is un necessary. Henry Rogers, the Captain of the Ship Martha Jane, of Sunderland, Charles E. Seymour, his chief mate, and William Mills, his second mate, were charged under the following circumstances, with having taken the life of a sailor, named Andrew Rose, on the voyage from Demerara to Liverpool. Mr.-Snowball appeared for the prisoners, who were in custody of detective officers Horn, Eaton, and others. Mr. Inspector Kehoe opened the case, and the lucid way in which he managed the proceedings, the manner in which he had arranged the narrative according to the evidence, and the ability with which he carried the whole case on, was remarkable, and gained the approba tion of all who heard him. The court was densely crowded, and the utmost attention was given to the entire proceedings. It may be observed that frequent demonstrations of horror were manifest at certain proceed.. ings attributed to the prisoners, and altogether a more fearful tale, in its present aspect, has never come before a police-court Mr. Kehoe, in opening the case, said, the prisoners belonged to the ship Martha Jane, of Sunder land. Henry Rogers was her captain, Charles E. Seymour was her chief, and William Miles, the second mate. The charge against them was for causing the death of one Andrew Rose, who was shipped as an able seaman on board that vessel at Demerara. The vessel sailed from that port on the 11th of May, and the crew consisted of eleven able seamen, of which Rose, now dead, was one, and besides she had a cook, carpenter, and steward. t would seem, from the evidence which he would be enabled to lay before the court, that the man was rather of light intellect, and that at the time he went on board he was suffering from diarrbm. It seemed that he lid_ not, on some oc ea-lions, go Co the proper water closet and for this the captain beat him most severely with ,a Whip, and the mates also beat him with ropes' ends, until his body became black and blue, - and lacerated in several parts. It 'would be proved that the prisoners continued to beat him every day, from the day the vessel sailed, until he died. Before he died, however, his arms, legs, feet, and other portions of his body, broke out into frightful holes and running ulcers. His body was swollen, and bruised from head b foot, by the terrible beatings inflicted on him by the three prisoners. There was a ferocious dog named Watch, kept on board, and the captain frequently set this dog at the deceased, both when in and out of irons, and the animal used to tear mouthfuls of flesh from the man, and inflicted desperate wounds on him, which bled profusely. When the dog observed the prisoners beating the man, which was at least once a day, it would fly at him and tear away flesh, leaving streams of blood issuing from the wounds. On one occasion when he was in irons, and could not stir more than a yard, he was treated in the most abominable manner by the capntiu. The details of this portion of the ease .was so pre-eminently disgusting that we cannot publish them ; suffice, however, to say that the most horrible filth was forced into his mouth with a stick by the c iptain, whilst the other two prisoners hell his arms. His nose was stopped, and other terrible treatment practised towards him. After this he was taken out of irons, and, by direction of the captain, the other prisoners unheeded a water cask, into which he was put by the three prisoaers. The cask was than headed in the usual way, and lashed dowa in its place. This was at twelve o'ctlek in the day, and he was left in that way until twelve at night, with the bunghole upwards. He begged, whilst in this prison, for a small quantity of water, but the men-were afraid to give -him any e as the captain told them not to do so. One of the men ventured to ask the mate to give him a little water, when he replied, " Yes, the I will give him some," and he took a tin pot and poured some water into the bung hole. At twelve at night he was taken from this cask, and he got into the long brat, and pulled an old sail over him, .which the mate ordered to be taken from over him. It would be proved that all this time, from the beginning to the end, the man had neither shoes, stockings, trowsers, coat, or hat—nothing in the shape of clothin" all the time, except a flannel shirt. On a Sunday, whilst in irons, he commenced praying, and after that he commenced singing a hymn—" Oh ! let us be joyful"— when the captain called for an iron pin to gag him, and he, along with the other prisoners, put a large iron pin across his month, fastened some rope yarn to each end of it, and then tied the rope yarn behind his head, and left him thus for an hour. The man called for mercy, and cried, " my Go', what have I done, or what will I do ?" but no mercy was shown to him. About two days before the vessel arrived off Cape Clear, the man was taken by one of his cona,a4l , ,a to the forecastle, where be got some of his tea, and next day he was called before the captain, who gale him what appeared to be some castor oil and brandy, This did not seem to have any effect on him, and the next day he got a like dose. tome time after, in the morning of the same day, the man died, and at twelve o'el , ck was thrown overboard, just as he was, a most frightful spectacle. This (said the Inspector) was the charge against the prisoner, every word of which would be proved to the satisfaction of the court by trust worthy witnesses, • who were quite independent of any influence in the matter. He would call as much evidence as would justify a remand, which, he would ask, in order to h ,ve the evidence perfect. He then taped William Groves, a seaman, on beard the shin, who said— I sailed from Barbadoes, on the 11th May in the ship. An drew Rose was on board. He was, from what I heard him talk rather weak-minded. He never disobeyed orders, On the 11th, I saw Seymour (the prisoner) ropes end him, before I was on board ten minutes. He was beaten the next day round the ship by the three prisoners—the daptain with the whip and the other prisoners with" ropes' ends. Mr. Mansfield : Do you know what it' was done for ? I do not, nor did I hear. The captain sometimes commenced beating him first, and then the others would ropes' end him, saying—" You brute, we will teach you not to go on board a ship again as an able seaman. I saw the captain set the dog at him several times, when he was in and out of irons. The captain would be bating him with the whip. I saw the deg fly at him several times, and tear pieces of flesh off deceased. I made this memorandum—(a slip of paper of the transactions)—as well as I could. On the 15th May he had irons on his feet, and could move about a yard only. He had nothing in the world on him but a fl innel shirt. He obeyed a call of nature, when the captain called two of the men, and ordered them to hold the arms of the deceased. (He then described the act of the captain, which was most abominable and revolting to human nature.) The captain ordered the chief mate to throw water over him, which he did. He was there till next day, and no covering but - his shirt. For seventeen or eighteen days he was allowed nothing but his shirt. To Mr. Mansfield : The weather was warm. He had the same shirt on when the water was thrown on him. It was on him all the time till he died. He never got any thing but bread and water, except two days that he got rice, and a little soup and tea that I once gave him. On the 16th of May he was in irons. (The witness here again described the abominable coeduct of the captain and first mate towards the deceased, and went on to say)—There were one or two buckets of water thrown over him by the mate. His hands and arms were all full of holes at that time, and his body bruised all over by the whip ; there was a cut in the head With a blow of the whip. his feet and legs were full of holee Ou the 17th the deceased was in irons. he prayed first, and then began to sing a hymn, "Oh, be joyful,"_ when the captain came and said " Stop that noise," and he did SO, and then the mate Seymour brought an iron bolt, and the captain put it in his mouth end tied rote yarn to it and gagged him. He was kept in that state, with his mouth on a strain. for an hour. Next.day the mates, by order of the captain, knocked the bead from a water cask, and he was put into it by the three, and they then headed it up again as a cask of water; they rolled it backwards and forwards three or fonc times, and then put it in its place. The bunghole was up, That was about twelve, and he was kept there twelve hours. He got no water then. I put my mouth to the bunghole and said, "Andrew, how are you ?" He said, "I am nearly sni ,thered: get me some water." I said, " It is not in my power,' but. I " will speak to the chief mate," and I did so. He came and poured some water into the bunghole there was a great steam out of the bung hole, and I could not bear it. When he was let cut of the cask, he was in a great haat, and his body smoked. He got into the loiag boat, and pulled a piece of an old sail over him, but Seymour took it off him. Be got worse and was beaten round the deck as usual. I took him inn) the forecastle against the Captain's orders, and kept him there three days and gave him some bread and tea. The third day:the Captain sent the Steward for him, and when he came back he told me the Captain gave him some castor oil with something like brandy with it. He got another dose next day, and got worse ' and he lay on the deck and the sea washed over him and about eleven in the morning he turned on his belly and died. He bail nothing but the shirt on him, vt hen ha was flung over board about half-past twelve. There was - no prayew said over him. One man suggested to the Captain to have the bOdy opened, and to hold an inquest,but he said it was not worththe trouble. We were about 200 miles from Cape Clear then. We arrived here on Tuesday evening, and on Wednesday I gave information to the police. To Mr. Mansfield I had no difference with the captain or mates whatever. I am a native of Portsmouth, and,deeeased told me he was a native of Gosport. The witness was cross-examined by Mrn Snowball in reference to the memorandum made by him. He said when deceased was crazy he had to lash him ~o wn with the other men. The captain crderc4 hita out -of-the forecastle. The deceased was nearly mad. He was filthy, but not beastly no. c•I never used a brush to him. I had to tie him down when he was crazy after taking the medicine. Ido not' know what it was. He died next day, To Mr, Mansfield : The mate struck him with the captaiu's orders. Mr. Kehoe : Did he strike him without his orders ? He did. , William Davidson, an able seaman on board the ship was examined, 'and fully corroborated the above, and bore out 'h opening statement. The witness told the same story as the other witness, nearly word for word, when Mr. Kehoe said these were the leading facts, and he would ask for a remand until the whole of the evidence could be perfected. He, however, called Francis Doyle, a sailor, who was on board, and this witness said the deceased was as harmless as a child, but he`thought him a little out of his mind. The witness gave the same evidence- as the other , twn.men, and added that there was a rope put round deceased's neck to hang him, and the captain pulled him about three feet off the deck, and let him fall again, and he did not recover for more than five minutes. The deceased's body was in a frightful state of corruption before he died—all in holes and moving sores, and swollen and bruised all over. Isaac Braithwaite, a coloured person, who was steward of the vessel, was examined also, and he bore out the evidence of the others, including the horrible pertion of the story they told. The deceased had only bread and water, but on some days he had as much rice as he could eat. He was only allowed a pound of bread and a pint of water a day. The witness was afraid to give deceased a drink of water whilst he was in the water cask. The day before the deceased died the captain sent witness for him, and asked where he had hurt him, and he replied in the head. He gave him some brandy and other medicine. Mr. Snowball contended that there was nothing but an assault proved, and as he had not time to meet the charge, he would ask for a remand on bail. Inspector Kehoe opposed the bail. Mr. Mansfield refused the bail, observing that perhaps there mightabe posaibly a conspiracy against the prisoners, for he believed all who heard the case would admit that it was one of the most frightful that ever came before a court. He would order the prisoners to be kept in bridewell, so that Mr. Snow ball would be near them to take their instructions. They were then remanded sine die. Commerrtai int etttgence.

Pratt, in 1842, in delivering a farewell address to the Saints in Manchester, previous to his departure for Ame rica, stood upon the stand and delivered the following prophecy before the assembled saints :—" I warn you, 0 ye saints of the Most High, to flee from this land of granny, oppression, and corruption ; for the Lord God is about to pour out his judgments upon it, so that there. shall be no more room to contain it. And I will here prophecy in the name of the Lord (and you who think you can save yourselves by staying behind, will know to your heart's content whether I am a true prophet or no, when it comes upon you), that within three years from this time, Lanca shire shall be convulsed to its very foundations, by earth quakes, plagues, pestilence, and famine. In Manchester, Stocksort, Blackburn, Oldham, Bolton, Ashton, and all the' towns surrounding us, the people shall die like rotten sheep, and there shall be none to bury them. . Their houses shall be all 'To Let,' and you may go and lift up the latches and sit yourselves down, and there shall be none to say unto you ' What do ye here ?' Such shall be - the destruction in three years to come, and I prophecy it in the name of the Lerd."--AdOentures among Me Mormons, by Mr. Hawthornthwaite.-- : [Poor Parley Pratt has at length met with his deserts, as noticed in our paper of Yesterday.] SWINDLERS.—A practice has been for some time past resorted to by a party of swindlers resident in this city, to insert advertisements in the Dublin Freeman's Journal, for the purchase of butter and eggs. Our detective officers have been able to neutralise the efforts of one of them, by seizing the goods he had ordered, and found upon him twenty-three letters from dealers in Ireland, who had replied to the advertiser's address, "E. Wareing and Co., Red Lion-court, St. Ann's square." Amongst the letters was an unsettled invoice from the newspaper for advertis ing to the amount of .£2 12s. 6d. Notice of the character of this Manchester customer has been forwarded to a quarter likely to put the butter dealers of Dublin upon their guard. Another of the same class, named John Ball, against whom there has been a warrant out for several weeks, on account of his having purchased a steam engine, value £5O, and then disappeared, after by some means disposing of it, fell into the hands of the police on Wed nesday afternoon, in Oxford-street, in this city. He was driving two cows, which he is suspected to have obtained on equally easy terms at Liverpool.

The poor creature was ultimately caught and killed. On the zentlemen's arrival at the scene of the catastrophe, the hare was found in a brook, covered with water, and then fully ten minutes dead. Oa being drawn out it appeared to be heavy with young. The doctor, supposing it pos sible that the brood might still be alive, opened the body with a lancet, and found two leverets, the one dead aed the other living. On being released, the living one crawled round the body of the parent animal, and fastened upon one of its paps, which it began to suck. It was care fully conveyed to Ballymarlow Lodge, where a cat was nursing kittens only three days old. The kittens were first removed, and afterwards re-placed, with the leveret added to their number. The cat did not appear to suspect this trespass upon her family ; for she treated the little stranger with all motherly attention, and continues to nurse it without perceiving any distinction of brood. The leveret is now 6trong sad livelp—Ballymena Observer, C.ollllllercial Salts NEXT WEEK. MONDAY.

Tun CALlFoitivralsr earr.—The everlasting question Pt* "is this good (,en" has been answered by Mr. E.

There is hardly anything more annoying than a bad pen—every one knows the misery. The pen made by Mr. Hall. is fit for any hand to use ;light or heavy), a n d what is of the greatest value, it 'does not corrode, but will work with equal facility in any int.,.

Thus a passenger call reach Chicago from Quebec, a distance of 1,007 miles, in less than 2i days, whereas by we.ter it is nearly cloub'e the distance and requires from 12 to 15 days, with five or six changes of Steam Boats, during all of which they are exposed to the arts and machinations of designing persons, whose sole means o f living Is by their plunder.

Passengers with Through Tickets are allowed the same amount of luggitee, free, aeon board the ship, and it is conveyed from the Ship to the Railway Station without any charge whatever. The Agents of the Grand Trunk Company will give Mechanic!, Artisans, and Labourers, on their arrival, the best information in respect to *employ r ent, the al places at which it is to be had, and the rates of wages. • Intending Emigrants can have sent to them, free, a Tariff of passeneerates ; and all their enquiries with regard to the sailing of both steamers and sailing ships, Scale of Dietary, Arc., will b 3 immediately answered on application, either personally or by letter, at the offices of the Grand Trunk Company, 21, Old Broad-street, London.
