Etberpoot '`4tartbarb. ROM OuR LOA - DON CORRESPONDENT. MONDAY MORNING. THE most remarkable event of the week, so fa:- as foreign matters are concerned, has been the accomplish ment of the long-talked -of " fusion" of the elder and younger branches of the House of Bourbon. Numerous ' a ttempts have been made since the revolution of February, 1:7 the Principal leaders both of the Legitimist and the -Orleanist parties, to bring about a reconciliation of the feud between the two branches which, as it originated in the acceptance of the crown by Louis PHILIPPE to the Prajudice of the direct succession, should, as appears but - natural, have been permitted to expire on the downfal of the ORLEANS family, and the consequent extinction of whatever rights might have been supposed to accrue by his long tenure of the throne. The failure of these . Attempts has generally bee n a tt r ib u t e d t o th e pers i s t ence of the Duchess of ORLEANs in clinging to the rights which • she imagined her son, the young COUNT DE PARIS, to possess in virtue of the abdication made in his favour by his franclather, at the moment the mob of Paris was about to burst into the Tuileries. Forgetting that the same "will of the people" which called Louis PHILIPPE to the throne, was equally efficacious even after a lapse of eighteen years to remove him from it, she appealed to the principle of "hereditary right" as constituting her son de jure King of the French, and refused to listen to any proposition subordinating his claims to those of him who, . -as lineal heir of Louis XIV. and direct successor of CHARLES X., calls himself " HENRY V., King of France." How the scruples of the Duchess have been overcome, — whether she has at last recognised the superior " right divine" of the elder branch, or whether, convinced of the - utter hopelessness of France ever again calling on the House of ORLEANS to rule over her, she has consented to an abandonment of the claims of her son, as the only • chance of her family revisiting their country,—has not yet appeared from the statements of the aEir that have been given to the public. For my own part, I believe that the firmness of the Duchess has only yielded to the repeated solicitations of the rest of the ORLEANS family and their leading partisans, who have represented that, to maintain the rivalry between the Bourbon branches, - and thereby dividing the monarchical interest in France, .could, under the present position of affairs in that coun try, lead only to the exclusion of both. Mutual opposition, it was represented, neutralized the efforts of both parties, While union must give them double strength. The very principle of hereditary succession involved by the Duchess spoke still louder in favour of the Count de Cnamriono. The younger branch, by gracefully waiving its preten sions in favour of the stronger claims of the elder, would, in reality, make no sacriace, but would merely return to that position on the right hand of the Throne which it had formerly occupied, and it would hold the same exalted rank, inferior only to the sovereign, which was its due. These, I undersrand, were the principal arguments used, and the result shows with what success. Under existing circumstances, the chief interest of this event lies in the fact of its making a breach which, for the credit of one party and the interest of the other, should never have oc curred. Far wiser would it have been in. Loris PHI LIPPE to have been content with the glory of placing the crown on his young cousin's head, instead of filching it for himself ; but in that, as in many subsequent cases, the tortuous policy in which he delighted was successful but for a while, the ultimate result being 'invariably disgrace and defeat. Some of the metropolitan daily newspapers, more especially the organ of the Peelites, and the advocate of -every thing said or done by the ABERDEEN section of our mongrel Ministry, have been endeavouring to impress the 'English mind with the conviction that CardinalWisEreAes, who would call himself " Lord Archbishop of Westmin ster," but for the existence of the Ecclesiastical Titles Act, 'has transferred his services from London to Rome, and that for the rest of his days, in this fast fleeting world, he is to remain attached to the court of his benevolent ponti fical master, Pio Noxo, in a distinguished position. Pri vate letters from the eternal city convey such intelligence re specting the Cardinal as can leave no doubt whatever about his -return to the capital of England, and the resumption in full force of his archiepiscopal duties, whatever they may -be. About the 234 of last month, " His Eminence"—so they invariably call him in the profoundly Popish neigh bourhood of St. George's, Southwark, where a gorgeous Roman Catholic cathedral looks almost contemptuously down I''' half-mUe nelt ,, bamm, the palatial pile of buildings watered by Father Tham:...s, near Westminster bridge—reached Rome, and became a sojourner at the great convent of the Theatines, St. Andrea Delhi Valle. Almost immediately after his arrival he was waited upon by the PorE and the prin cipal English Roman Catholics, who hailed his presence among them with, it is reported, uncommon Pleasure. In fact, he became the lion of the day, and bid fair t. , e eclipse, for the moment at least, that blue-fire brilliancy which ".the Pontiff" throws about wherever he goes. There was feasting and jollification of every kind for, the next three or four days, and on All-Hallows Eve the Cardinal received an invite to crack his nuts and suck his sugar -plums with Pro NONO. Among others who partook of the POPE'S hospitality on the same occasion was the Grand Duk e o f TUSCANY, and the entertainment commenced at 2 o'clock, p.m., in the Casino of the Vatican gardens. The party was a pleasant one, being a good deal enlivened by thejokes and witticisms of Cardinals Aerro- NELLI, FORNARI (distinguished among ecclesiastical diplo matists whilst filling the high post of the Nunciature at Paris), PATROSI (the Cardinal-Vicar of Rome), the French Ambassador, the Austrian Charge d'Affaires (provisionally acting in lieu of Count ESTERHAZY), the Tuscan Minister, and the Princes BORGRESE and Onsizer, rather a remark able galaxy of the elite, and affording by their presence practical exemplification of the truth of that good old song, "The Pope he leads a happy life." Dr. W/SEMAN was in right good spirits—related a variety of anecdotes connected with the doings of the PorE's " Parliamentary Brass-band" in their opposition to the passing of the &de - siastieal Titles' Act through the House of Commons — gave some racy imitations of WILLIAM KEOGH'S (the present Solicitor -General for Ireland) crack oratory in defence of "Mother Cliurch"— described FREDERICK LUCAS, that self-dubbed champion of Popery, as a political agitator of the Oily Gammon school,—and, I dare say, in compliment to the French Ambassador, wound up by declaring his belief that Louis NAPO LEON was " one of the greatest columns to the Catholic Church." In a day or two after this fete, Cardinal WISEMAN met with an accident, which severely hurt his right hand, and prevented him from assisting in the morning at some religions ceremony at the church of St. Carlo. In the afternoon, however, he formed one of the body guard of forty Cardinals who attended the POPE at St. 'Peter's, to celebrate "The beatification of the venerable ANDREA BOBOLA" and the accounts received in this count r y asser t, that "the English Cardinal, in his robes of state, was conspicuous among his princely col leagues, by the dignity of his bearing and his stature?' When the rumour of the Cardinal's accident got wind, the Convent or the Theatines was besieged by hosts of anxious ank for peace and quiet sake, he got away one beautiful moonlight night to the villa of the English College at Monte Porgio, where he dedicated himself to writing on topics of considerable importance, and enjoyed that seclusion which the continued applications for ad mission to his presence, and the demands upon his atten tion in various ways, whilst at the Theatine Convent, rendered impossible. In Roman Catholic circles, Cardinal WISEMAN'S return to England is ex p ec t e d by the first week in January. His house in Golden-square, rather a respectable apostolic place of shelter, is being put in order by one of the first decorators in London, and I understand that a series of soirees during the approaching season will form a distinguished feature of the Cardinal's hospitality to those of his own way of thinking. " A night with MrenELssnoei" has - been attracting enormous crowds to the Wednesday concerts at Exeter-hall, and giving great satisfaction. "A night with WISEMAN," over one of his soiree cups of coffee, seltzer-water, and Chablis, on the north-eastern side of Regent-street, may , not prove unacceptable to the readers of my corres pondence in the Liverpool Standard; and when the time arrives, they shall have it con amore, for though not within the pale. of Dr. W.'s -" true church," I believe I - can secure the entree to his salons.. It appears that negoeiations—diplomacy—will never have done with regard to the Turkish question. A partial victory and retreat by the Ottoman has opened new com munications, and our QUEEN'S messengers are again on the qui sire. A Turcoman was also sent from the embassy to the SULTAN with a note from our Cabinet on Tuesday, • tenor of which, it is said, will open up the way to more direct negociations. I give you the diplomatic phraseology. On Saturday night, Lord PALMERSTON gave one of the grandest banquets which ever characterised this unban - queting period of the year. It was opportune. Some weeks since I told you the cause of all these delays, negociations, or what you will. QUEEN VICTORIA won't have fighting. NICHOLAS is Her NiAJESTY'S old friend, and the SULTAN is her older ally ; and if we had not effete old men in the , ' Cabinet, and pragmatic Radical young men, the affair would have been settled five mouths ago. Leagues of type--leaders, and what not—cannot inform you more,—if SO much ! There is not a more crotehetty creature in the world than your English vocalist—male or female,—especially if the party be considered an artist of eminence. This arises, in some degree, from the scarcity of the genus, making those who are of it insufferably vain and exor bitant in their demands. The whim and caprice of the votalist are proverbial. A capital English opera company Was being brought together for Drury-lane, after the Vantomime season, or, it may be, during it. The pro moters of the opera scheme —I mention no names— lAshed to have entire occupancy of the house : so far " But will you keep it open six nights a week r" then s ad the l essee . Thi s was demurre d to. Th e l essee tak e Z a Ys , " Very well, gentlemen, if you wont, I must ; for house for three ni g ht s a w e e k, a nd keep it ope n b e Pena, and I will give dramas on the other nights." ha tis ta!ltualb er two : The singer s wanted to have the enough, thane other entertainment ; judging, rationally hee sediae tif there we r e a full house for tragedy on Th e e;:,,Zss.nte, there m i g h t not b e a good one for Tuesday. and I do u W n ee i 3, that the opera has gone for naught ; Lion of th e ' P atillfTe that even the musically inclined por- English o,..,2lbliencares a rush about the failure ; for rarity een ti;,'; na ll. ever yet ripened into a genial popu- Mat/On wo u ld s ' s 'e The chances of such a consum w rendered more problematical during the ensuing season, seeing two Italian houses are spoken of as certain of being open. Meantime we have French poodles and Borneo mon keys "playing their fantastic tricks" where GARRICK and KEAN evoked and vindicated the genius of SIIARSPEARE. Crowds nightly make the welkin ring with laughter, loud and long, at the antics of these creatures. They are very clever, but the cleverness is the result of the whip. One little blear-eyed fellow enters from what used to be the prompter's side, attired as a waiter, carrying a tiny bottle of wine in one hand and a candlestick in the other ; he looks suspiciously around, and unperceived, as he appears to imagine, takes a stolen suig . at the beverage; bat if he chance to let his candle fall, as is sometimes the case, he has not intellect to pick it up. Altogether they are very funny. On Wednesday, . though the fog was so thick that it might have been felt, the house was crammed. Mentioning the fog induces me to state that nearly all the past week, we, in the metropolis, have been wrapped in it (the fog). Yet, to the wonderment of those who were in the secret, HER MAJESTY, with her illustrious visitors, drove all the way from the warm hearths of Windsor Castle to Westminster Abbey, and had a walk and meditation among the tombs. The noble pile was illuminated, and had a remarkably grand and sombre effect ; but for the cold, it was a very interesting mode of examining the hallowed relics of the sanctuary. The waxen effigies of departed greatness, now excluded from public view, were shown to the Royal party. Apropos, what has become of the long array of sculptured kings and queens —painted and gilded also—which used to repose in the Guy Fawkes' cellars of the old Houses of Parlia ment' I remember seeing a great number of them on the morning of a fifth of November, when the usual search was made. The statues were curious. HER MAJESTY and suite left the Abbey by Poets' Corner. On the same day, H.R.H. Prince ALBERT and the DUKE DE BuABANT visited the venerable seat of learn ing, Cambridge, of which the PRINCE is chancellor ; and the following evening found himself nearly lost—if the Irishism be allowed—in the yellow fog of Shoreditch. Some score sturdy fellows, belonging to the Eas tern Counties Railway, bearing flaming links, preceded and attended the Royal carriages, all the way to Padding ton. The PRINCE was much pleased at the loyal attention paid to him, and soon afterwards rewarded his torch-bearers. In the gossip of the week, the rumoured matrimonial alliance between the Princess MARY, sister of the Duke of CAMBRIDGE, and a nephew of Louis NAPOLEON, has found a'place. From what I learn, the alliance is far from likely. The 'parties have scarcely ever seen each other, and wooing by pictures is falling into desuetude. The Princess MARY has just entered upon early womanhood; in features she perfectly resembles those exquisitely sweet and simple portraits painted , by Clow) DoLcI, seldom met with, but always admired. _ _ There are four illustrious individuals—one of whom is mentioned as likely to have the late Duke of BEAT:Emu's Ribbon of the Garter—the COLONIAL SECRETARY, the Earl of ELLESMERE, the Marquis of WESTMINSTER, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL. I believe Her MAJESTY of her own royal will and pleasure has offered the distinguished honour to the Earl of CenListE ; now, I believe, in Italy with a lot of English notesble for rank or talent. I notice a case in one of our superior courts, the other day, as the judgment shows a liberal interpretation of the Licensing Act, and must be worthy of attention by nume rous of the good folks of Liverpool. Mine host of one of the large hotels in Covent-garden for many years has had music—singing chiefly and piano-forte—in his house, with out having taken out a license therefor. An action was brought for penalties. The judge said, or as much as said, that people went into the place for refreshment ; they paid nothing at the door for music, and nothing inside, save for what they ate and drank. The jury found for the land lord. Now we have hundreds of such houses in and about the metropolis. There are not a few in other chief places throughout England. Query :—Will they drop their licenses, seeing they are not amenable, as shown by the case referred to ? It certainly is puzzling to the uniniti ated to think the expense attending the musical staff of most of these houses. Twenty pounds a week, indepen dently of victuals and drink, to eight or ten musical people employed, can't cover the charge. Are the profits prodi gious ? No doubt ! COMJTERCIAL de MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT. THE protracted quarrel between Russia and Turkey has so wearied the public mind, that less and less interest appears to be felt in the daily re ports, by electric telegraph, which few people now believe, and whether they have declared the victory to be onone side or the other, verylittle effect appears to have been produced on the public funds, which are usually considered the pulse of public opinion, The funds have been gradually progressing up wards, and are now higher than they have been since the first alarm of disturbances. The Money Market for commercial purposes has been compara. tively easy, though the rate of discount is still high, and the bank directors have as yet shown no sign of reducing their limit. The bank returns in the London Gazette present little worthy of com ment. There is a decrease in the stock of bullion, but only to the extent of £36,756. The active cir culation shows the large decrease of £649,608, while the other securities have also decreased to the extent of £442,801, an evidence that the amount of accommodation has been considerably lessened. There have been several large arrivals of specie from the United States, but at the same time there have been large shipments of gold to Russia, and of silver to the East Indies. The loan of £280,000 to the Silltan of Turkey, by the house of Baltazzi and Co. is said to be merely a renewal of annual advances on the security of the Egyptian tribute. The Bank of France appears to have taken alarm at the drain of silver, and it is said in tend to confine their payments to gold, which will have the effect of withdrawing silver from circula tion. Trade in the manufacturing districts appears to be by no means brisk, the business being confined to the execution of small orders for actuaTconsump-- tion. This dulness has been attributed to various causes, such as the insurrectionary disturbances in China, the unfavourable reports from the India markets, the monetary difficulties in the United States, which are, however, approaching a termina tion, and the political troubles in the East of Europe. The latter circumstance, however, can have had little to do with it, but has rather pro duced a contrary effect, if we may judge by the foil lowing extract from the .Blanchester Courier:- - The general operations of the export houses have, doubt less, been limited lately, to some extent, by the apprehen sions entertained of the result of hostilities between Russia and Turkey, but the idea, which we find pretty generally prevalent, that the exports of goods this year to Turkey and the Levant have been seriously reduced is certainly based on no sufficient data, the reverse happen, ing to be the cause, as will be seen by the following return of the exports of goods, up to October 29th, this year, compared with a similar period in 1852 : EXPORTS TO TURRET AND THE LEVANT. CALICOES. Main—Yds. Printed—Yds. 1853.... ..... 50,352,987 1852 48,053,081 Increase, 1853 2,299,906 5,377,904 What is still more extraordinary is the fact, that the. increase has been since last June, and to. a greater extent than is shown by the above table, for during the six months, up to the end of June, there was a positive decrease to the extent of about 3,000,009 yards. We have no doubt that this is a statement fol., which our readers will be but little prepared ; it is, nevertheless, perfectly accurate,—and we may mention in addition, that the steamer Teneriffe, for the Levant, which left Liverpool on Saturday, was obliged to refuse no less than 120 tons of cargo, for which stowage could net be found, whilst the Arabian steamer, which is about to sail, or has sailed more recently, has also had to shut out goods. It may be, perhaps, that the manufacturers are anxious to show their operatives, who have turned out, that they have no necessity for their services so as to induce their submission. The return from the l'inuk of England for the week ending the 19th of Nov:, gives the following results, when compared with the previous week : Public deposits £7,031,154; 1nem5eX1,024,932 Other deposits ... 11,632,208; Decrease 149,561 Rest ... ... 3;217,322; Increase 5,862 On the other side of the account Government securities £12,477,425; Increase £711,182 Other securities ... 15,989,650; Decrease 442,801: Notes unemployed 7,559:,980; Increase 554,234 The amount of notes in circulation is £21,590;735, being a decrease of £590,690 ; and the stock of bullion in both departments is £15,819,357,5h0wing a decrease of £36,756, when compared with the preceding return.

London stock alone is very heavy, from the great amount offering for sale ; and, while others have advanced nearly two per cent., this has barely moved. A large amount of this stock has been sold and exchanged for Midlands and Leeds. Our local stocks continue much asked for, and all show a tendency to rise; the Insurance Shares being most in demand. Royal Assurance asked for at £4 155., and Fire and Life at 61 pm. for the old, and 7 pm. for the new.

COTTON.—The trade throughout the week has been more animated, and the sales to the trade 5,500 bales per day, while a fair proportion has been taken on speculation and for export. The demand has been chiefly for the lower qualities of ordinary to good ordinary, owing to their compa rative lowness of prioe ; and these descriptions have consequently advanced d. to 4d. per lb. On Saturday, the sales reached 10,000 bales ; and TO -DAY, the sales were 7,000 to 8,000 bales, of which about 2,000 were on speculation and for export.

TO-DAY there is no change to notice in Sugar, the refiners still continuing the chief purchasers : the sales, includino. Saturday's opera tions comprise 70 hlids. St. Lucia at 31s. to 335., 40 dids. Jamaica at 335. 9d., 4,600 bags Khaur at 28s. 6d., and 1,450 bags Bengal at 38s. to 38s. Gd. for Benares, and 345. to 345. 6d. per cwt. for Dates. 50 puns. Antigua Molasses, from the quay, are reported at 17s. 3d. per cwt., and a small lot of Demerara Rum at previous prices. The Tea market continues firm for all descriptions, with the exception of common Congon, several parcels of which are offering at ls. 3d. per lb. The Rice market has become quiet, the sales being confined to a few hundred bags of Bengal at 15s. 9d. per cwt. We have also to notice 50 bags Salt petre at 295. 3d. (5 per cent.), 20 bags liver Shell Lac at 425., 420 bags Sago Flour at 225. per cwt., 20 tons Panama Mother-of-pearl Shells at £2B 10s. 'per ton from the quay, and 500 bags Calcutta Linseed at 545. per quarter. WooL.—The business of the week has been to a fair extent, and confidence seems to be gradually increasing ; although the reports from the manu facturing districts are anything but encouraging, yet this market has continued to improve since the close of the London sales, and a fair average amount of business has been done this week at improved rates : there have been several inquiries for coarse long-stapled Wools, such as Bosnia, and Syrian fleece, free from scurf, of which the market has been nearly cleared ;. there is also a demand for good white Egyptian of long staple, but none in the market. Present stocks consist of short stapled ordinary quality. Imports for the week, 7760 bales, chiefly from the west coast of America. Several sales of Irish and English Fleece Wool are reported at id. to Id. per lb. more than could have been made a month ago. Stocks are light, and holders are confidently expecting higher prices. Inos.—The Scotch Pig Iron Market has again assumed the dangerous price upon which we com mented in the early part of the present year, and we now see no reason to alter very materially the view we then took of this article. The price of coals and labour since then has certainly advanced, yet we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that, in the first half of the year 1852, Scotch Pigs could be purchased at from 355. to 40s. per toff,. and that the present coat is about 80s. per ton.• In the former instance the price was too low to. remune rate the Ironmasters, and it is now much too dear for all legitimate trade, and this assertion is fully borne out by the fact that the exports have fallen, off from a weekly average of 16,000 tons to 8,600 tons for the past month, as well as- the fact that' in the United States (our great customer) the price, as per Africa's advices, is equal to , £6 3s. 9d. per tou cash, whilst - it will cost 20s. to 25s..per ton above that price to sell' in New York : merchants who purchased' for exportation choosing to sell here at the advance,. making sure of a good profit in preference to shipping to an uncertain market. The foundry-men, too, are merely purchasing from hand to mouth in the expectation of reduced rates. About two months since the price was 605., and has been ran up to 80s_ by large purchases in anticipa tion of the abolition. of the French duty ; but, like most other speculations of this nature, it has been carried too far. The long, looked-for decree has been issued, and amounts to a reductiontof 2 francs per 100 kilogrammes,. or quite 30 per cent. in duty if imported ire French or English vessels, and about half a.franc less in foreign vessels, which is a mere bagatelle in comparison with the- increase in the price of the Iron; .which is upwards of 100 per cent. without taking into account - the higher rates: of freights now prevailing. In the early part of 1852,, the value of Pig Iron was about 40s. and freights much lower than now, yet pigs did not then find their way : in large quantity into French consumption, and how they can find their way them under present circumstances, the following conr parison. of the three items of cost, freight, and duty will' clearly point out, viz.:— Cost. Freight. Duty- First kalf 1852 40 18s. Per ton. £519 IsToy, 1853 Bos. 275. 436: 6d: £7 10 0 Difference, £1 11 6 Thus welrnd difference against the exports to Vrance, after allowing for the redaction of duty, to be about 31s. 6d. per ton, certainly offering no in ducement to mercantile men to ship now , who did not do so in 1852. The whole affair of the present rise bears much the same stamp of the over-specu lation of last year, when an imwarrantable• com parison was made between the price of Scotch ,Pig Iron and the manufactured Iron of Staffordshire ; the error of which many people discovered. when it was too late.,--To-DAY there has been little or no thing doing:in Pig Iron.

Ward, Esq., went to the High School in Louisville, near the corner of Second-street, on Chestnut, accompanied by two of his brothers—Robert Ward, a. youth of sixteen, and William Ward, a smaller boy—and, called far Mr. W. H. G. Butler, one of - the teachers. .a few words passed between them, whew Mr. Ward pulled out a pistol, and shot Mr. Butler clown,. The ball pew tratect, Ms left breast, over • the heart,. and he fell to the floor, exclaiming in his-agony, " I arukilled—oh, my wife and child !" .:.Ward then dropped his: pistol, and, aet,4lll - by his brother, retreated from the school-room. -Mr, Butler was able• to rise from the floor, and left the room, assisted by some boys, but when in the street he fell. again, and was carried home. The ball could not be .ex tracted, and he bled inwardly. Mr. Butler had corrected Wm. Ward, one of his pupils, the day previous, for telling a falsehood, which led to the tragic afiltir. Robert Ward, who accompanied his brother, drew a bowie knife, and when Professor Sturgis, the other teacher ir A the school, advanced to the assistance. of Mr. Butler, he. made such demonstrations that the professor retreated and made his, escape out of a window, The scholars in the schoolroom, were also scattered in all directions by the display of surh• warlike Instruments in their midst. Mr. M. F. Ward and Robert J. Ward, j'un., were promptly arrested, and lodged in gaol. Mr. Butler died the following day,, leav ing a wife and child. The two Wards have been commit- ted f*r trial. Ax AWKWARD Di scLosuus.—Alt the Lambeth police court, on Saturday, Mary Anne Hoffinan, a smart-looking girl, in the service of Captain George Burslau, of Lord ship-lane, Dulwich, was charged with stealing a towel, the property of her master, and on suspicion of stealing an emerald ring, value £l5, the property of her mistress. The captain deposed that on returning with his wife from a party, about two in the morning of the 10th instant, Mrs. Burslau took off her rings and placed them on the dressing-table, and on the following morning the emerald ring was missing. The servants all denied any knowledge of the ring, and as the prisoner in particular had the duty devolved upon her of coming into that room, suspicion rested on her, but he did not feel justified in giving her into custody. That morning, the prisoner being insolent, he ordered her to quit his house. She refused, and he was compelled to turn her out ; and, on having her boxes searched by a policeman, one of the new set of towels pur chased by him was found, and he then gave her into cus tody. A witness, who hemmed the towels, deposed that it was one of the captain's. The prisoner assured the magis trate that the towel was her own, and that she knew no thing about the ring. On the night in question, her mas ter and mistress brought home from the party Dr: Mil lengen and a Mr. Hudson, and there was a quarrel, as she believed, about the doctor's attentions to her mistress at the party. The doctor was to have stopped in the house all night, and the servants believed he had done so, but on going to the room the bed was found untouched, and the doctor had disappeared no one knew how. Various prices had been set on the ring, and on each occasion it was made to increase in value. The prisoner added, addressing the captain, " There would be nothing of this, bad I allowed you to kiss me when you gave me the wine to drink, and told me you had purchased me the ear-rings you pro raised?' The Captain, colouring : "Me ! want to kiss Sou ?” Prisoner : Yes, but I wouldn't let you," The prisoner being without friends to bail her, the magistrate accepted hex own reCogizlizancea to appear on a future day. WORKING MEN'S BRANCH OF THE PROTESTANT REFORMATION SOCIETY. SOIREE LAST EVENING. LIST evening a tea-party of the Working Men's Branch of the Protestant Reformation Society, establishedunderthe patronage of Mr. Alderman Edmund Molyneux, was held at the society's rooms, Lower Beau-street. Upwards of 300 persons were present, the upper and lower rooms being each filled during tea. The equipages and tables being removed, the whole company collected in the lower room, which was densely crowded. Various appropriate decorations were suspended on the walls, and banners and flags waved from the ceiling. The chair was occupied by the "Rev. W. F. Taylor (Incumbent of St. John s), and near him on the platform were the Rev. George L. Ireland (curate of St. John s), the Rev. W. B. S. Matthias, the Rev. S. B. Sutton, M.A., the Rev. V. M. White, B.A. the Rev. T. Robinso n , BA., Mr. W. Clarke, Mr. T. Worrall: (missionary for the Reformation Society), and other gentlemen. The Rev. Outman, who was received with loud applause, explained the object of the gathering, and that the society in question was a branch of that British Re formation Society which throughout the length and breadth of the land was . busily furthering the noble objects for which it was founded. With a view to show the necessity for the establishment of such auxiliaries, the speaker glanced at the operations of the Roman Catholic Church in our own country. Of late years Rome had put forth the most extraordinary exertions to regain, if possible, her long-lost ascendancy in this blest country ; but the Lord grant that the ascendancy which she once had she might never regain. (Loud cheers.) If she did regain it, " heretical" Protestants knew what they might expect. At present, there are 700 Romish chapels in England-700 mass-houses ; where that which they called a sacrifice was offered up, but which we's in reality the most hideous abomination under the eye of heaven. (Cheers.) There were eleven colleges, where priests were being trained for the purpose of indoctrinating the masses of our people in Rosaish idolatry. There were no less than 17 monasteries and 53 nunneries, into which tatter young girls were entrapped at an early and unsuspecting age. The speaker here expressed his opinion that no system of nunnery inspection would answer the end in view for the cunning of the priests and " reverendmothers" would still defeat the ends ofjustice: The only remedy for the abuse' was suppression by law. (Lora cheers.) Mr. Taylor quoterlfrom the pastoral of the "Bishop of Southwark" several passages, showing what lie considered the blasphemous character of that document. He described the Bishop of Southwark as a "spiritual Judas.' The passages chiefly dwelt upon by the speaker were that which rBferred to the feast of the Rosary—which festival Mr. Taylor declared was a Moorish invention ; and that, where Catholics were directed to repose their whole confidence upon the " all-powerful intercession of our most blessed lady" the virgin who was herself a poor sinner like the rest of us. Christianity (the speaker continued) is essentially ag gressive. ; aggressive on the wide=spread domains of darkness, ignorance,' and sin. Were it otherwise, it would have been long since overcome and num bered amongst the things that were: This aggres sive character of Christianity may be defended on three grounds,- not to enumerate more : first, the Saviour's command, "Go ye into all the world mid. preach the Gospel to• every creature ;" for what does this command imply, but that an aggressive movement sbentid be made - by the Church of Gal on the wastes of heathenism and error ; that the light of the Gospel should be cast upon the darkness of the moral world, and that the dungeons and prisons of idolatrous Error, wherein Superstition held her myriads captive in perpetual bondage, should be assaulted, and. that the' Church of God should never con ceive her high and holy mission accomplished untilievery obstacle were overcome, and, notwithstanding the opposi tion• of interested parties; the blessed proclamatiets of redeeming mercy were poured into the ears of every son. and daughter' of Adam. In this manner the Apostles acted ; in despite of opposition and every species of perseenk. tion, intolerant laws; popular - hum% the combined in fluence of a despotic government, and an interested mid designing priesthood, they preached the Gospel, in the cities and in the fields, in the' market-places and in the* highways, on the mountains, by the-sea shore, in the syna-- gogues, and in the temple. True; they were beaten,. stoned, imprisoned, bound, " but the Word of God was not bound," everything turned "rather unto the further ance of the Gospel ;" the cause of truth tt'iumphed ; though they fell in the conflict, they conquered in their fall, and with their dying arm they planted the standard of the Cross on the battlements of the enemy, and' shouted vic tory. Again, philanthropy would urge us to beaggressive in the cause of Christianity. The Gospel is the-only means pro vided for the salvation of fallen man : without the Gospel, he-must live without God, withoutehrist, and without hope in the world—uncheered by the beams- of that heavenly truth, which alone can enlighten the mind; comfort . the heart, and which brings every earthly blessing in its train ; and, dying, he must descend to the. blackness of darkness for ever. Now who, believing that the gospel can bless for time and eternity, and that wit** it man is lbst; body and soul, for ever,s--who, I say, on the mere ground of common, universal philanthrope; could be otherwise than aggressive ? Rut once morel:necessity i m poses upon us an ag,gressise movement : format is the force of opposing influences, that, if not making head against - opposition, religion will Abe gradually "dome back ward: The man who rests on his oars will speedily be swept downwards by the current •of the river ; and the Chriitianity which ceases to wage, by moral . means, an aggressive warfare with all adverse influences, wilt soon become retrogressive. So that aggression is abiJolntely essential to the existence of Chriitianity ; for it - ceases to be truly ChriStian otherwise. Now these principles I would 'apply to Protestantism, for Protestantien is -not a mere negation, as is generallY , stated, but ividentical with . pure Christianity; for by Protestantism-4 mean that system of religious truth which is set forth in the Articles, Liturgy, and Homilies' of our National:Church. The Refiirmation in the if tli • century was accom plished, tinder God, by aggressiie movements. Sold and faithful men advanced with indomitable courage -against the powers of darkness united under the papal authority, they unfurled aloft the standtusinethe Cross, they kindled on high the beacon light of pure primitive Chris tianity, and success crowned their exertions. Now, my , brethren, as . the Reformation was won by aggressiVePro testant chriStiassity, so must the Reformation -Ile-main tained by the same ; as a matter of self-preservation, we must - no longer act as too many ;16,, merely on thedefensive; we must assault the enemy in her strongest citadel ; we must unsheath the Sword of the Spirit, and flash its light ning into the , centre of her encampment ; we must aim at the destruction of the enemies- of the truth by. =corn pli:shing.tbeir conversion, thus not only thinninpthe.ranks of the enemy-but augmenting our own. This IS the true, the only legitimate victory which we should seekto accom plish---a moral victory, a bloodless conquest, gained not by might; norhyppNyer, but by the Spirit of the Lord:, (Cheers.) • I, therefore, rejoice to preside at this tea party,lfeld for the purpose of 'Strengthening our-hands and our hearts in this good •cause„ I hail with joy the formation of a-" Working Man's B ran ch" of that nobla. and faithful witness of the truth, whose flag has ever braved triumphantly the battle and the breeze, the " Britiish Reformation Society." I augur well: for our country,_when I see our working men, our mechanics, our carpenters,our smiths, our-shoemakers, taking the initiative u in this matter, and, a s-in this case , without-being ged by the Clergy, first firming them selves into a society homing for its object the pro motion-, of these glorious- principles, and: then coming to the proper leaders of the people, the clergy of our be loved Church, thankful, if they can secureetheir co-opera tion. They determined, with God's blessing ; that, whether supported or not, they will nail the colours to the mast head, and never take them down until victory crowns their arms.- (Great applause) The rev. chairman alluded to the persecutions which arebeing carried on all over the world, by the priests of Rome against Protestants, dwelling at length on the brutal And disgusting case which has recently oceurredat Chelles, itt France, where the-corpse of a Pro testant farmer waidug out of the grave by the priests' myrmidons, and dragged through the. mire of the streets. Mr.- Joon BENmrr, the secretary, then read the fol l Awing REPORT. At a public meeting, held in Ail-Saints' Sehool-room, (the Rey. H. Marlen having very kindly granted the use. of that building for the occasion), otithe 14th of September, . of persons in the habit of attending the controversial ker. tures and • Sunday out-door me,etin,gs conducted by Mr. T. Worrell; the agent in this town to the British Refor mation Society, the following resolutions were unanimously: adepted "That, in consequence of the very great success which has attended the efforts of the agent in this town, especially at the North end, and the general progress of the work of reformation, it is deemed. advisable to form a branch, society, to be designated the ' Liverpool Working s Men!a 13ran9h, Protestant Reformation Society,' having • for its object the carrying out of the principles and ob.*ta.of the parent society." "-That a commodious building be procured for the put , pose of having weekly lectures, that a libray. be formed, and every practicable nieans adopted to furnish, the mem bers with information touching the principles.of the Church of England, in contradistinction to those of the. Church of Rome." That every effort-be made to disseminate information among the Roman,Catholics in this town, by the circula tion of tracts and other works on the Romish. controversy ; by the diffusion,, in every possible way, of sound Pro testant knowledge ; and that all legitimate means be put forth to induce-them to abandon that erroneous system." " That, in order to carry out the object of the meeting, every member shall contribute nab less than one penny weekly, in consideration of which he is to be entitled to attend the. lectures f ree , and any other privileges that may arise in connection with the. society." " That a committee be appointed to carry out the inten-. tions of this meeting in such a manner as to the commit , . tee may appear best." "That the committee, having taken the premises occu pied this' evening, and succeeded in enrolling nearly 300 members, deemed it requisite to convene those members together on the 3rd day of November, in order to adopt rules and appoint officers. At that meeting the following rules were agreed upon : " Rule 1. That the society shall be designated ' The Working-men's Branch of the Protestant Reformation Society. _ "Rule 2. That it shall consist of Patron, Vice-patrons, President, Vice - presidents, Treasurer, Secretary, Commit tee, and Members. R u le, 3. That all persons professing a belief in the Holy Trinity, who shall subscribe one penny weekly, or shall give a donation of five pounds, shall be members of the society. " Rule 4. That a committee of thirty members shall be annually chosen to transact the general business of the society, and that five constitute a quorum. Rule 5. That an annual meeting of the society shall be held. at such time and place as the committee may determine, when a report of the past year's proceedings s h a ll be presented, with an audited statement of the accounts. That Alderman E. Molyneux be patron ; vice patrons not yet appointed. That Mr. John Parsonage be and Messrs. 'Worrall and Grindrod be vice- That Mr. Joh n J o h nson b e treasurer . Th a t Bennett be secret ary . [H ere follow the names president,pol‘ f ir retsi Johndiret vice presidents. s gentlemen of the committee.) The Rev. S. B. SUTTON moved the first resolution, as follows : " That the promotion of the religions principles of the Reformative is a duty incumbent 9n all whg belieye that those principles are in accordance with the revealed will of God." • Some subjects, he said, spoke for themselves. Their very titles proclaimed their importance and their worth. The basis of the resolution in his hand was that principle con stituted character, and, therefore, in order effectually to advocate the interests of the Reformation, and make the members of the Church of Rome join their ranks, because honest and consistent Protestants, they must act upon this rule of principle constituting character By charac ter, he meant those natural qualities which glorified God, dignified man, and purified society. (Hear, hear.) Character was not talent. A man might have all the wisdom of Newton the logic of Bacon, the metaphysics of Locke, and yet be destitute of character. The philoso phers of Greece and Rome knew as much as they could know without the Bible, and yet they were destitute of those cardinal principles which constituted sound charac ter. The philosophers of France, at the end of the last century, the leaders of the revolution, were, many of them, great and energetic men, but were destitute of those principles which constituted true men in the sight of God. Character was not station. Some of the highest geniuses had been dug out of the roughest quarry. (Cheers.) Rough hands, unshaven faces thick arms and legs, and stalwart constitutions, had contained the gentlest and noblest, and purest of spirit. (Cheers.) Charac ter was neither talent, station, nor reputation. The most ignorant Hottentot, or civilized European, whether king or subject, master or servant, who made the Bible his guide, the glory of God his end, the exaltation of true scriptural principles the summit of his ambition—whe ther he lived in a hut or a palace ; whether clothed in rags or in fine linen—that man, in the sight of God and the universe, had downright, settled, manly character. (Loud applause.) By principles they meant, not opinions, but those great motives which resulted in settled action ; and • according to the character of these principles would be the nature of the action. With these sentiments in view the resolution in his hand had been framed. Now, the object of the Reformation Society was to circulate the religious principles of that Reformation, which unquestionably was the greatest event that had taken place since the day of Pentecoet. It was a mighty upheaving of mind ; a won derful shaking among the dry brnes ; the throwing off that incubus which was eating up the very vitals of Christianity. One of the great religious prin ciples of the Reformation was that the Bible alone was to determine' the essentials of salvation. This, too, was in accordance with the Pith Article of Vier Church of England; for, though the members of that Church might differ—as tedid• with Mr. WRITE on minor matters of church government—they yet deemed that everything necessary to salvation; was to be found in the Bible* or nowhere. (Cheers). Martin Lather, who saw that there was law in the material: creation, so was there law in the religious economy. He fOund, however, that the decrees of Popes and Councils were not sufficient to satisfy cesiscience as a sinner, and he maintained throughout the integrity and paramount authority of the Bible. It waa this that the Papists dicta not like, When they said that Rome was the mistress of the churches, give them the'llible and ask them to prnVe it. When they said the Pope was the head of the Clurreli,bring them to the Law and the Testimony, and they would fly. An open Bible, and the'plain 'common sense declaration of God's truth, they could not stand. Protesants; from the earliest time —Abel was the first —Protestants patriarchal, Mo saic, prophetic, and Christian, Martyrs and refor mers kept the Bible in its paramount authority as the rule . of faith and the guide of practice: The supre macy of the'revealed law of God, thent.was one principle which the society was anxious to circtlitte• and maintain in Liverpool: The poor Romanist, who from birth to death heard but one voice—" Hear the chtireli"—was kept without that rttle-whereby only he could he :saved. There were many thihga about which they (the Protestants) might differ ; but - there were two things about which no soundly and religiously constituted minds , could differ — that the Bible was the rule of faith, and that' the - Bible was the book for everyman ; and whatever mightftakeplace— however powerful Might be the aggressions of - Popery— however the nunneries ; and chapelries, and . monkeries, might increase ; horeever frequent might be theNlaitations of the priesthood in , this town, they (the Protestants) would keep their prinfeil)les intact and pure, would defend them so long as a drop - of blood remained in theirrhodies, and would pray from the bottom of their hearts, and teach their children to , lisp, "From all the detestable enormities of the Bishop4ofßome, good Lord delifier us-!" (Loud applause.) The Rev. T. ROBINSON, Vi'at., seconded the resolution;,and alluded to the foundation of'the Protestant Reformation' So-- etety amid some few storms-and amid many prayers. After remarking that the present gathering must be very cheering tfethe missionary Mr. Worratt(wharn he, Mr. Robinson,-had recommended to the appointment which he now held).; the speaker took a hasty and brief review of the political Trim , ' inenta wnich had of late agitated all classes in reference to the great subject of Protestantism in these realms. Hie conLiiince he declared to be shbilen, and he found by expert- • ence irwould not do to look ro Government for a display of those bold measures which are indispensable for securing our Protettfint institutions. (Cheers:) Aft were aware of the brilliai,t election promises made when courting the support of the people; but as workingmen-they were all aware that.' action epeahs louder and with more effect than words. Of the men'-who have composed our ministers of the crown, in connexion with this great straggle. we have found them equivocar,evasive, dilatory, unprotestant. (Hear, hear.) The proceedings of such men made. Min tremble for England's future; and that anxiety was increased' by every day's experi ence. it was but lately he read that an.order had gone down to Chatham, providing that the same chapel for the accom modation of the soldiery was to be used on one part of the day for the services of our Protestant C'durch,.and on the other by the Popish priest, as a place in which'to disseminate the abo minationaoPthe Romisit belief. HS'knew not what answer might be sent to such an order by the chaplain at Chatham ; but, if be-had received an order thus to mix his inini, , try with that 'Watt apostate priest, he .would instantly have penile his. resignation, and would -7• have. been.no party to so blasphemous a mixture of Christ with Antichrist. (Cheers.) A feather, ithad been &lid, thrown,up shows how the wind blows, and'onecircnmstance lately struck him as significant. When our beloved Queen lately visited Ireland (and our Queen is, without any doubt, a trtv.and stamen Protestant) —(loud cheers)—she was made to reach Ireland on a Monday, and to leareit on a Saturday. And why was that so? It was lest these amiable Papists should be offended by Her Majesty going to worship God, in connection-with those parties who follow the prinerples upon which William . ..Hl. had become the hero of the. Battle of the Blayne. (Loud and con tinned cheert.)• We can place no• confidence in men who could thus- conned temporising- on the part of our Sovereign. All incident he might relate. however, which showed that whatever might be the=-disposition of Minis ters, reliance may be placed on , the members of the Commons House of Parliament. At - the- close of last session net= fewer than fifty members of that House had pledged themselves to maintain the-Protestant oath of supre macy entire. (Load cheers.) These are the-men who should be counters-aced and supported. and , towards an augmenta tion of whose numbers every Protestant should direct his at tention, as the parties really capable of opposing and court. teracting the' Pope's brass band. (Great and continued cheering.). Em this time England has had: to fall back on her middle- classes ; and we natrvc.onie to you, to the middle classes, and the lower classes. Among them we find few-conversions, perversions they are more properly called, to. Popery. (Cheers.) It is among the upper classes that such unfortunate movements are-to be met with. It is for yon then to be np and be doing,und to show year deter mination to exalt and uphold the truth as it is in Jesus. (Cheers.) A gentleman to whom he.(the speaker) had lately to address himself concerning this-movement disapproved of it. The gentleman inquired what arguments could be adduced by working men to counteract the- operations of Rome. He. forgot thatAltose men have the happiness to sit under evan gelical ministers—(cheers)—that they are accustomed to dis cussion among themselves ; and they are thus enabled to contribute powerful efforts to twoor the unrighteousness of Popery.. (Cheers.) It had been found by many that thought was very.ermtic; that ideas very,saletnn. are rapidly suc ceeded:by others that are very ludicrous. . His thoughts had on a late occasion transported 111111 inimagination to London, the time he thought was the month-.of May,. and he to him self fancied be was on his way- to Exeter-hall to attend a meeting of the Protestant Association. He encountered, he thought, a crowd, and on ascertaining what was the occasion. he discovered a large mastiff in. .the act of shaking anti wor , tying a little pet clog. The crowd shouted and used every exertion to rescue the little sufferer, but without effect- Presently a little gentleman,--a very small man compared with many of those who were exerting themselves on ilia.' oceasion—pressed gradually forward, and having gained thu. front rank, he took a small box from his pocket, and out of ii he lifted a small quantity al ,anuff, which lie placed within the.. jaws of the mastiff. The huge cur gave a great howl and ran away. (Laughter and loud cheers.) The. big dog bounded away, and the little one was left free. (Cheers) Let us follow a ,similar course, and send away the great beast of Popery from its attempts to worry and destroy. our poor little Protestantism. You will aid in putting a pinch Of snuff in the jaws of the great Papal beast, and effectaally scare away the great Cardinal Wiseman, who of late has threatened to destroy us. The reverend gentleman resumed his seat amidst loud and continued cheering. The Rev. V. M. WAITS moved the next resolution " That this meeting desires to give its cordial support to the Liverpool Auxiliary to the British Society fir Pro moting the Religious Principles of the Reformation, and in so doing contemplates not only the general elects that may result from the society's operations at larv,- but also the particular henefit which may be looked for to the Roman Catholics resident iu the town and neighbourhood." It was necessary (Mr. White said) to distinguish between persons and principles. They spoke,iin the present contro-. versy, in reference to principles. They loved the persons of the Papists, aud it was because of this that they endeavoured to do them good , by telling them the truth ; but they bated. the principles cif Popery—that masterpiece of the devil, who, never prodt.aed•a system so well calculated to dishonour God , and destroy the souls of men. The facts of the case showed, that in every; country where Popery was established ierse7 cution and ; intolerance prevailed; and yet, notwithstanding this intolerance in principle and practice, she would fain pass before the wend, in free Protestant England, as the very essence. of meekness and patience. Look at the poor priests here,, for instance, who. Dr. Cahill said,. would do nobody any harm—(laughter)--but yet the writings of their church breathed the most intolerant; fiery, and perse cutielg. spirit. lie (the speaker) shoull endeavour to show that, in principle, it was utterly impossible for the Church of Rome tobe anything else but intolerant, persecuting, and the enemy of all that was for man's good, and the comfort of our soul's hereafter. First, it was utterly impossible for any nation to be free that was under the government of one who possessed nothing less than the power of Almighty * God Himself, and yet who had all the frailties, defects, and infir mities of humanity. What had been the character of the Popes, they who claimed thus to be gods upon earth? Why, one Roman Catholic writer told us that there were 150 Popes who were apostatical and not apostolical; and a Romish cardinal, who had written more than any other member of his church, and was a high authority, described them as monsters who had crept into the pontifical chair. (Cheers.) Again, Romanism must be a system of tyranny ; for no freeLom could could exist where there were no laws to direct the government of a country. Every government had laws, even the most arbitrary and despotic. The Church of England had its laws ; but in the Church of Rome the Pope was at the head, there was no law but his, and, therefore, the people must be slaves. They said they did not restrict the Bible ; but they taught that it must be interpreted according to whatever sense the Church chose, and thus the Pope could defeat Scripture by the interpretation which he chose to esta blish. In the third place, the Papists could not be anything else but slaves, in consequence of the hold which the priest hood had upon them, tnrough the confessional and other agencies. He spoke not of the priesthood personally, but officially, when he declared that it was impossible for a man who took an absolute oath of allegiance to a foreign prince— to consider his interests first, and to sacrifice all others so them—it was absolutely impossible for that man to pay true and faithful allegiance to the sovereign of this country. Popery ever was, and ever must be, intolerant and persecuting,— the enemy of God and man; the foe of man's best interests, individually and socially, both for time and eternity. (Cheers.) The Rev. G. L. iRRIAND seconded the motion, remarking that as Rome was maintained by organisation, so must the Protestants, by organisation, and by the formation and sup port of societies like the present, seek to battle with and sub due the foo. He contrasted the superior condition of the Pro testant with those of the Roman Catholic countries of Europe, with a view to show how debasing and enervating was t h e system of Popery ; and pointed out, as an illustration of the same fact, the wretched state of many portions of Liverpool, particularly the district about St. John's. This Society was composed of the persons by whom the work r f the Reforma tion could be most effectually accomplisheet—if they chose properly to exert themselves —namely, the werkin&-classes. The Rev. W. B. S. MAIMIAs moyed a vote of thauka to .. the chairman.

ABOLITION OF THE ADVERTISEMENT DUTY.—ADVERTISEMENTS received for the London Gazette, and all other LONDON, PROVINCIAL, an d FOREIGN NEWSPAPERS and PERIODICALS, by HENRY GREENWOOD, 10----CANNINe-rie4cs-7-10, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1853. Mr. CLARKE, in a brief but eneiZetic speech, supported the motion, urging upon the attention of the audience the important work which the females might effect in promoting the objects of the society. Mr. 'f. WORRALL supported the resolution, and pointing to the pictures elucidating the great historical events of the refoithation which adorned the walls, and also to the portrait of the Duke of Wellington, he exhortedthe audience to maintain the principles for which their ancestors had so nobly fought. H.e particularly alluded to the exertions of Mr. Taylor, and other gentlemen on the platform, on behalf of those people. Air. TAYLOR briefly replied, and the proceedings concluded about half-past 10 by the singing of the National Anthem. [The refreshments at the party were shpplied by Mr. Milbourn, and gave great satisfaction.] FIRES IN LIVERPOOL. FIRE IN Sr. GEORGE'S BAZAAR.—On Tuesday even ing, the St. George's Bazaar, in Queen-square,--a similar establishment to the old Pedlar's Market,—was destroyed by fire. The place was closed, as usual, about ten minutes past eight o'clock, and, in a few minutes after,it was dis covered to be in flames. The fire appears to have origi nated at the St. John's-lane end. It was first noticed by the reflection seen through the glazed openings over the door in Queen-square. Intelligence was immediately for warded to the fire-station, but before Mr. Hewitt could arrive with his brigade and reel-carriage, some persons, anxious to save the property inside, forced open the doors, which caused such a draught of air through the building, that the flames were fanned into an ungovernable fury. When the hose were brought to play, and also a hose from the West of England Company's engine, which was early in attendance, the fire was soon quenched, but the con tents of the bazaar were already entirely destroyed, with the exception of a few articles in one or two of the stalls at the Queen-square en4L The building was the property of Mr. Leigh, of Shaw-street, and was insured in the Sun Fire Office for about £l,OOO. The poor tenants of the I stalls, about 30 in number, however, lose everything, for they were not in a position to insure the trifling articles they dealt in ; and a subscription has been commenced for their relief, the furtherance of which, we believe, has been. acquiesced in by several members of the Town Council, The loss to the tenants, it is considered, will amount to about £I,OOO. Over the St. John's-lane end of the bazaar there was a bedroom, part of the premises of the Manches ter and Birmingham Hotel, occupied by Mr. Cross, which also sustained considerable damage, but it was fortunately insured in the West of England office, and Mr. Cross's claim for damage was promptly settled on Wednesday morning. The origin of the fire is still a mystery. The person who has charge of the bazaar asserts that all was quite safe when he locked it up and turned off the gas ; but one of the tenants stated that a person in passing through the bazaar a few minutes previously threw a lighted portion of a cigar on the floor. [The occurrence of each cases as the above, in which numerous poor parties are suddenly, and with little, if .any, fault of their own, deprived of their only means of ' , subsistence and thrown destitute upon the sympathies of the charitable, suggests the consideration, as to whether some arrangeMent could not - be entered into between the proprietor and tenants, whereby such au addition might be Made to the stall-rents as would enable the former to' effeettinsurances on the goods of 'the latter, and thus ren der them so far safe, in the event of such calamities occuring.—En. L. S.] DEZTIVICTIVE FIRE.—ANOTHEZ WIND AND STEAM MILL RIARNT. — At a few minutes , past five o'clock on Wednesday evening, a fire was discovered to have broken out in the mill situated in Limekiln-lane, belonging to Messrs. Rawsthorne. This mill, like the one whose de struction we'reeorded last week, was thiven.partly by wind and partly: by steam-power—the portion to which the steam-powervras applied being five, atidthe other eight stories high;. The premises in this instance were closely surrounded I.'y houses, chiefly occupied: by the humbler classes. The fire, when first discovered,. was- in the upper floor of the steam-mill, and immediately over the engine ; but, prior to itvkliscevery, it had obtained-suoh a hold of the premises asto-preclude the possibility of saving them. The fire-engines and other apparatus belonging to the fire brigade, together with a large number orthemen, were speedily on the spit, but all eftbrts to save:the steam-mill were so obviously useless, that their exertions were mainly directed to extinguish, the flames which hacl:been .commu nicated to the windmill, and save the adjoiningpremises. In the latter attempt their endeavours were fortunately suc cessful ; although, vea regret to add, the attempt to save the windmill proved' entirely futile. The fire rushed ra pidly upwards in the- windmill tower, and, having. burst through its roof, raged and roared with the fury of a blast furnace, till everything within it which was comblistil 1. was entirely. consumed.- At about twenty minutes past eight o'clock the huge .and ponderous sails of the windmill, having first swayed air' if about to fall across the tower, fell with a dreadful crash towards the outside dill° build ing,. carrying with them a large mass of the+richwork. In falling the sails came in contact with, and entirely de stroyed, the roof of a cottage situated in the mill-yard, on the roof of which the fbrenran had been standing only a few minutes before. No lives were lost ; but wa regret to add' that one of the polica , constables (No. 733, Smith) was severely injured by some.nf the brickwork falliug_on him. Front the moment the windmill sails fell, all apprehensions of immediate danger were at an end, and thefiremen's efforts were directed to eonfining the conflagration within the ruins, in which they happily succeeded. There were 9 pairs of grinding-stones employed in the mills and the total loss in premises, machinery, and grain and-flour, is estimated at about .E 9,000. £5,000 being consideredabont the value of the premises• an& the machinery, while the &Am - and grain are estimated at £t,ooo. The•stock be longed to Mr. Martin, enlivens ) we believe, insrred hr the West of England Fire-office to the extent of &POO.- It is also. stated that the lossal the Messrs. Rawstlibane was so far covered by insurance 3-. the building to the-extent of £3,400, in the Leeds and Yorkshire, and the machinery to the-amount of £7OO, in the Yorkshire offices. A. consi derable portion of flour was, we understand, saved by the neighbours and millers before:the arrival of the fire-pollee. The-whole of the machinery had, only a short time. ago, been renewed or extensively repaired, and the mill: was: un derstood to be in excellenti workiir , order. Hew the fire originated has not been discovered. F tan Ix MANESTY-LA'NE.—On Wednesday, abut; noon, a fire-broke out in the ceiling- of one of the toptyooms of Wright's sugar-house, Mimesty-lane. The premises being insured in the West of England office, intelligence was. immediately conveyed to, the station in Mounttpleasant, and:the- engine was at once sent. The fire brigade also attended from Temple-court, but the services- of neither were-required, the flaraeslaving been extinguisked.with a fewhuekets of water. The. damage was very trifling.

GREAT CIRCLE StrILING.-A meeting of„cthe• Literary and Philosophical Society of Liverpool was held last night, at the Royal Institution, in Colquitt-streets. Mr. Yates in the chair, when Mr-. J. T. Towson delivered: a lecture on great circle and composite sailing, and their late advan tageous application- in connexion with Australian voyages. He explained in detail the principles of ;the theory, and denied that he had ever claimed the,. hononr of its invention, inasmuch as it was as old , . as the principle of Mercator's projection. He also explained the claim admitted by Lieutenant Maury, who bad denied the value of the.application when it was disputed-to belong to him ; but he (Mr. Towson) claimed the credit of the theory of composite saitirg, which had been successfulky adopted by Capts. Boyce, Forbes, Godfrey, andbthers, in their rapid voyages to andaom Australia. Qn,account of the late ness of the hour, tbk further consideration of the subject was adjourned watil another meeting, after a vote of thanks to the lecturer.
