He told the i t i l 3 kb rabble or Glasgow that he had travelled all over eland, and had been every Where recei ved with accla - h., at i(ln and open arms. This is untrue. his like most or the beggar's statements, a-barefaced falsehood. DANIEL ➢lStt ed Manchester and Newcastle-upon-Tyne—in the :or ie Place he met Irish cotton spinners and porters—in e Other Irish coal-heavers. Are these the people of n Plaad ?

It waa all pretty well to 8 wagger before his gin-in 81}Ittcl countrymen of Manchester, to repeat the same s 7 3 gE,..er before the same class of -persons at Nem:aide, T T 4llnb uni) ,, and Glasgow , and to boast that hehad been , -° ° l 3 - reoeived,lovously welcomed, and hospitably enter 44Ined by the veclole of England but the simple fact ci,'i~ierucse~i~ci s+• 'that the rabble he met in etat.land believed what he said, is itself a proof that they are the most ignorant and de 'graded of mankind. What .dU they or DANIEL know of the people of England ? The name, of O'CoNNELL, the faction to which he belongs, and the fetid Irish popish priests whose hireling he is, are held in execration by a vast majority, by nearly the whole population of this protestant kingdom and well DANIEL knows it, although it suits his vile purpose to conceal the truth, and tell a different tale to the unwashed herd of kennel patriots who worship him. But' DANIEL has refused to dine with the tadicals of Belfast, by whom he . was invited. He says, in reply to the invitation, that it would not be quite safe to venture among.the protestants of Ulster; but here are his own. words : Upon full consideration, however, I do beg leave, most re spectfu{ly, to decline the honour proposed to me. It is no proof of my not appreciating the invitation, that I am con vinced that, - at the present moment, I ought to decline to ac cept of it. Ido so, with resyect to the inviters, and with great regret on MT own account. But I must not allow myself to be tempted to attend the dinner—much as I desire to do so; be cause, the state of party feeling in your town and province is such—the spirit of Orangeism is so much infused in a portion of the protestant community—that, in spite of all we could do, this festival would be looked upon as originating in party mo tives, as dedicated to a jubilation over or against the Orange faction, and we, who would meet only to celebrate the triumph already achieved, and to proclaim the hopes of the peaceable and constitutional reformers, would be looked upon as congre gated rather to insult the opinions of others, than to assert our own. " I must not allow myself to be tempted to attend the dinner, because"—what ?—" the spirit of orangeism is so much infused in a portion of the protestant commo- nity." ! Good The meaning of this slivering and despicable cant is this. DANIgli bas not the courage to cOme,Within twenty miles of the protestants of Ulster. He has, as all cowards have, an instinctive horror of the consequences. He can, rigged out in military costume—the livery of a brigand—play all the pranks of the mountebank and bully in England and Scotland, where he is deemed - too worthless to cause any sensation, or invoke any resent ment, and where respectable people shun him as if he were a mad dog or a notorious swindler; but in the north of Ireland where he is held in greater abhorrence, simply because his character and his conduct are better understood,. he dares riot exhibit himself, well assured that his popish adherents could not protect him from the : fury of those whom he has insulted and traduced. Such is this man when placed in a proper light; but his day is nearly over. Every respectable Roman catholic must despise the fellow. LONDON LATEST NAYS. City, Wednesday Evening, Half-past Seven o'clock. Our funds continue gradually to advance, and consols for money are at 91i 1, and for the account at 911 I. Money, however, continues scarce; and the consequence of this has been a depreciation in both Exchequer Bills and India Bonds, the former being at 17 to 19, and the latter at 4 prem. In our Foreign Market the accession of Mendizabal to the Spanish ministry, and the exeunt of the Toren° cabinet, are regarded by those unfortunate and infatuated individuals de lighting in the name of Spanish bondholders as favourable to their desperate venture, and the Stock to-day has been as high as 451, closing at 44i I, and New Scrip. at 151 discount, closing at 161 discount. In Portuguese Bonds there has been less kn. proiement, but the market is firm at 88i for the 5 per Cents., and 58 fur the 3 per Cents. All the Republican Bonds have improved considerably sine our. last; Chilian are at 41 to 43, Columbian at 34 to 35. Those beautiful specimens of valueless paper, New Buenos Ayres Stock, is 341; Mexican Bonds at 381 39, and Peruvian (Peru now being in a state of revolution with two presidents) at 25 to 27. • • New Northern Bonds are steady. Dutch 5 per Cents. are 103, the 21 per Cents. 54,1 ; Russian at 1071, and Belgian at 1011 102. In our Share Market there has been a sort of mania for rail way schemes and shares.

'The only governor of Algeciras had taken refuge in that fortress from the fury of the Spanish radical mob, being able to preserve his safety only by flight. 'Commercial affairs were rather dull at Gibraltar owing to the unsettled state of the country round about, political affairs entirely engrossing the public attention. A geueralopirtion prevailed at Gibraltar that a revolution in Spain was inevitable, and that the extermina tion of the priesthood would he one of the results. Many of the wealthiest Spaniards were investing their property in bills on London, and numbers were preparing to emigrate. Count Toreno appears to be an object of most implacable hatred on the part of that sanguinary blockhead, "the sovereign mob," and from this we infer that he is nal. quite so bad a character as he has been represented: • _ Mercantile letters from .Malta to the sth instant state that trade wore a very gloomy aspect there, and that many failures bad occurred among the shopkeepers. This state of things had' been . muchincreased by the rigid enforcement of quarantine. We have received a file of the Indian Gazette to the 23d of ' April. Much interest continued to be excited with regard to the inquiry into the suppoied murder of the Rajah of Jeypoor by his minister Jotarem, and Major Alves was actually engaged in the investigation. The character of this Jotarem appears to have been of a most sanguinary nature; two hundred murders, the names of the victims being given, had been recorded against him. Further 'discOveries of the tea-plant had been made on the eastern frontier, among the Munipoor hills, by Major Grant. Two individuals had been apprehended charged with the as sassination of Mr. Fraser, and it was generally believed that :they were the perpetrators. The rewards offered for the dis covery of the assasssins had been much increased by additional sums offered by the native princes. Dr. Gerard, the traveller, had died at Lubettoo on the 3lst of March. We have also received advices from Madras. The accounts from Cabeol state that Dort Muhamood, having left a reserve body of 2,000 men to protect his capital, had proceeded with all :the forces he could musterlowards Jullalabed, and that himself and the sekhs were within ten kos of each other, but neither ap peared very anxious to risk, a general engagement. Some bight skirmishes had taken place, however, one of which had given the Sekhs possession (Attie fort of Khelat. The monsoon had given symptoms of setting in early, heavy rains having fallen, with.high winds at intervals, but the wea ther had moderated when the accounts left. . . A considerable deficiency had been discovered in the cash chests of the fort adjutant's office, consisting chiefly of money dramn for moment of family certificates. A committee had been appointed to examine into the matter, and bad reported a deficiency of30;000 rupees• We have likewise received accounts from Bombay. Aq expe dition had been sent out against the Bheels to burn the village of Penora, which was accomplished. On the return of the troops, howeirer, they were attacked by a large force of the ma rauders, and a sharp engagement ensued, in which the Bheels were repulsed, with a loss of about 350 men, the English hazing only 16 wounded. Intelligence has been received from Goa, to-day, of a consider ably later date than the preceding advices. The usurping go vernment had annulled, in the name of the Queen of Portugal, all the decrees and orders passed by the regent in her name, and had assured its supporters that not only would they suffer no punishment for their acts, but that they would receive the thanks of the Queen and of the Portuguese ministry, and be re warded. Those of the principal inhabitants and functionaries who had declined taking an active part in the rebellion, or lending their countenance to the rebellion, had been ordered to leave the territory within a given time under pain of the se verest perialty.

HAPPY DAYS.—A paper was found after the death of Abde rama 111., one of the Moorish Kings of Spain, .who died at Cordova in 961, after a reign of 50 years, with these words writ ten by himself :—" Fifty }ears have passed since I was Caliph. I have ,enjoyed riches, honours, and pleasures; Hevveri has :showered upon me all the . gifts that man could desire. In this long, -space .of apparent felicity I have kept an account of how many happy-days lave passed ; their number is 14.

About ten days since the Newham arrived here from AlexandriO with a cargo of cotton in defian . ce . of :the or ders received from his Majesty's consul at AleXandria, which directed that she should perform quarantine, at Milford Haven before she completed her voyage to Liverpool. The owners of the Newham; who reside at Tynemouth, obtained from the privy council permission for that vessel to perform quarantine in the 'Mersey, and the mistake" was rectified. Another ship (the Moslem) belonging to this port being expected to arrive from Alexandria, the owners applied' through their London agents for a similar dis pensation of the quarantine laws, not doubting, as she had a clean bill of health, that they would be successful. However, in this they were mistaken, as the following petition to the privy council and letter to the owners will show : To the Right Honourable the Lords of his Majesty's Most Honour able Privy Council. The humble Petition of Hodgson and Powis, of London, Merchants, SHOWETH,—That the brig Mallern, T. T. M. Vale, master, is daily expected to arrive at Milford Haven, from Alexandria, with a cargo of cotton for Liverpool. That your petitioners find your lordships have been pleased to grant an order allowing the ship Newham, now in the River Mersey, which vessel arrived at Liverpool direct from Alexandria, with a cargo of cotton and an unclean bill of health, to perform her quarantine in the Mer sey, such permission being of most important advantage to the parties interested. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray your lordships will be pleased to grant an order, that on the arrival of the Moslem at Milford Haven, should her crew be found in good health, she may be permitted to proceed to Liverpool, and perform. her quarantine in the Mersey. Your petitioners humbly beg to state, that they have the full est confidence your lordships will be pleased to grant their peti r tion, after having granted the indulgence prayed for to a vessel which has not conformed with the quarantine laws. And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray. MESSRS. SAMUEL. MARTIN AND CO., LIVERPOOL. London, 19th Sept.. 1835. • Gantlemen,—ln reply to your favour of 10 th instant, we beg to state, that our object in addressing Messrs. J. Moss and Co. on tha s subject of quarantine never contemplated the putting of you to any expense, as our Charge under any circumstances must have been very trifling, our sole object being, thatAaving chartered the Moslem out, we were anxious to do all in our power to be 'of service to Captain Vale on his return; and the circumstance having, come to our knowledge that the privy council had granted an order for the Newham, we considered it a good opportunity to Make an attempt in his favour, we must confess' without much hope of success, although we were at a loss to conceive what answer their lordships could give to the annexed petition, which we presented on the 12th instant, and were told, after four days' consideration, that their lordships could not make up their minds. We, however, yesterday re ceived for answer, that their . lordships could not grant our petition, the case of the Newham having arisen from mistake. Now, every circumstance connected with the transaction in question negatives the possibility of there having been any mis take in the matter. Such, however, is ,the only answer their lordships give; but we have good reason to believe the filets of the case to be, that the owner, who, we are told, has considera ble influence in the borough of Tynemouth, was accompanied to the council-office by the honourable member for Tynemouth, and that the only mistake made was in granting to parliamen tary interest a - favour contrary to the quarantine laws, and contrary to every principle - of justice to the mercantile and shipping interests. We are rather at a loss to know why the quarantine•officer at your port permitted the Newham to remain until he received an order in council for her to perform her quarantine in the Mersey, instead of compelling her to proceed to Milford, such being the law, and which we know has been acted upon very promptly in similat' cases. We are, gentlemen, Your very obedient servants, HODGSON & YOWLS. Thus it appears that a ship belonging to Tynemouth, with an unclean bill of health, may be admitted to per form quarantine in the Mersey through a " mistake," while another ship belonging to Liverpool owners, and having a clean bill of health, must fulfil the law to the very letter. - These " mistakes" have an odd appearance. In the case ,of the Moslem the expense of performing quarantine at Milford will be about one hundred pounds more than it would have been had she been permitted to sail direct for the Mersey. The Newham being a larger vessel, the saving is-considerably more. TO DANIEL O'CONNELL, KNIGHT OF THE DEATH'S HEAD AA'D CROSS BONES. " Those who live in gl..ss houses should never throw• stones."—Nov, Sig,—You have presumed to accuse the Duke of Wellington of being ungenerous. I have already hinted that such a charge comes with a peculiarly ill grace from you. Stranger as you notoriously are to all the soothing offices of friendship and benevolence; alien as your heart must he to alI the tender sym pathies of heaven-born charity; characterised as you always have been by a brutalised seltishnesS of disposition, it really appears astonishing that you should have the audacity to give utterance to such an accusation. But, like every thing else which emanates from your pen, the charge is false, palpably and wilfully false; and it will be 'amply refuted by the relation of the following . NSTANCE OF THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S GSNIMOSITY. A military gentleman, at 'present on the half-pay list, and resident . in Liverpool, served under the Duke of Wellington in India. After having spent nearly 30 years in that country, he returned to England, having left all the property which he had realised in the hands of a respectable firm at Calcutta. The house, however, some time ago stopped payment, and this gentleman became necessarily involved'in the general embar rastment which ensued. Pending the settlement of their affairs, and uncertain whether any reasonable dividend would be even tually paid, he ventured to write to the duke, applying for some situation under government. This took place during the last brief tenure of office, of which the shameful alliance of the Whigs and ultra-radicals deprived his grace. The noble duke replied that existing arrangements precluded him from making any appointment in his favour; but in testimony of his recol lection of a brave fellow-soldier, and as a mark of his sympathy with him under his losses, he begged his acceptance of the enclosure—which was a £5O note. . NOW, Daniel, you can bring uo instance of such disinterested kindness forward, neither on., behalf of yourself nor any joint of your "draggling tail." , And yet you will preach about gene rosity: The only thing in which you are generous is,—your slavering abuse. The only thing in which you abound is,— impudence. You are lavish in every thing but—truth. I now proceed to examine you in the character of missionary through England awl Scotland, and to animadvert upon your travelling oration to the vulgar audiences, whose fancies you tickle by your comical. absurdities. You avow yourself to be a political "missionary." By whom are you sent to scatter abroad the seeds of sedition through the length and breadth of the land? The answer to this ques tion will furnish the solution of the next, --by who ti are you paid Are you delegated by the popish priests of Leland to make a tour of apology for their atrocious ascendancy over the loyal and peaceful protestants of the sister island, upon whose extermination they are apparefitly resolved? Are you sent by the whig-radical ministry upon a tour of conciliation, to endea vour to excite a little commiseration towards them, and to create a temporary reaction in their favour, to allow them an opportunity of i ompleting the removal of all the landmarks of our ancient constitution? Are yon sent by them to feel the pulse of the people of England and Scotland as to the abolition of the House of Lords? Allow me to mention one circumstance connected with , your agitating progress through his majesty's dominions. It looks suspicious. In all your speeches you have reiterated the same sentiments; repeated the same lan guage ; brought forward , the same similies, the same nonsen sical abuse of the House of Peers, the same vulgar and inde cent allusions, the same hyperbolical boastings, and the, same string of unqualified lies. How is this? Were you furnished, before you started from the treasury, with chapter and verse on which to descant? if you have been thus gagged—if such a restraint has been imposed upon your ardent temperament, it shows that your employers have but little confidence in your discretion—and less in your honesty. Will you have the good- ness to inform us how much of the secret service money you are to reeeive for .your braggart orations ? I should very much like to see the quid pro quo part of the arrangement. Your friends claim for you the appellation of patriot. What right have you to this dignified title ? What good have you ever done in your country What benefit have ypu ever procured for it ? We know that you have stimulated your ignorant countrymen to violence and rebellion, midnight plunder and . assassination. We know that yOu have caused the sanctuary of protestant homes to be recklessly intruded upon by .the and the-murderer. We know that you have denounced with your infernal curses all who- venture to assert an inde pendent opinion, or to exercise an undoubted right, if contrary to your selfish interest. We know that you have'resisted every measure calculated to ameliorate the condition of the suffering poor of Ireland. We know your inveterate hostility to the introduction of poor laws into Ireland. • We know your tenacious adherence to a senseless system. of agitation, calcu lated to withdraw the attention of your Countrymen from the pursuits of productive industry, and cause them to devote Weir time and attention to the consideration of imaginary griev ances. We know with what 'Unrelenting pertinacity you have continued to exact the payment of £15,000 annually in the shape of rent. We know that this comes from the pockets of the poor almost exclusively. We know- that this enormous amount of tribute, forced .from their penury. is far greater than any sum which you have sacrificed by relinquishing your pro fessional engageinents. All this we know; but surely You dO not call' this patriotiStni The people of England would call a person who thus acted a scoundrel, a fraudulent imposter, a mean dishonourabk_ fellow, a public ' pest, a candidate for the Lunatic Asylum or--the gallows. , Your modesty is on an equality with your patriotim., Of this we have a signal proof that you, now have"the assurance to stand up beforeati . English "a.ndience, after having, during -the greater_part of .your life, : leaded the English with every -imaginable -species of abuse. Are you not .afraid that they should remember than you are the infamous blackguard who asserted that 10 out of every English women eteae strumpets .before they were ,married? I advise , you tp be cautious in yuur movements. There are among us those who think the horsrpond a soitable receptacle for such cowardly tradircers of female virtue. There is . another 'point to which I beg to allude before' I commence the dissection of your speeches. It is this—lou .have, .or profess to have, a ,vow that you will never again ac cept a challenge to fight a duel with any man. You entered into this solemn compact with your conscience after having caused the death of Your antagonist. There is reason, there fore, to infer your sinceritrin this renunciation of duelling. But should not such a circumstance make yoir the most cau tious and guarded in your language of all men living? Should it not cause you to avoid with . the most scrupulous anxiety every thing like personal affronts? But what, is the fact? You are of all men the most lavish in your insults. You think no more of giving the first gentleman in the land the lie, than t you do of devouring a potatoe, or eating your own words, as you are frequently compelled ,to do. When people see such conduct they think you a coward, and the opinion is rational. Iu addition to the heavy matters already laid to your charge, I must further accuse you, or the whit; ministry with whom you are now in brotherly alliance, with the grossest hypocrisy ever practised, and that in reference to a question of the most vital importance. I allude to your co-operation with the whigs on the subject of the Irish church. Lord Morpeth and his party solemnly declare that the settlement of the question, iu the manner recently attempted, would tend materially to promote the interests of protestanlism in Ireland; that the plan was calculated to be beneficial to the clergy, and productive of good to the church at large. They assign this belief it its , utility to the church as a motive for the introduction of the measure to the notice of parliament. On the other hand, you and your tail believe that the measure is calculated to weaken: and undermine the protestant establishment; you view it as the first instalment paid in satisfaction of your claim fur its eventual annihilation; you approVe of it because you wish for the destruction of the church. Entertaining these opposite views—as opposite as light to darkness—you and the whigs vote together on thiS question! Here is consistency! Either , you or the whigs are hypocrites in the matter. The people of England will soon show yOu in what light they view the Con• : :, duct.Of those Tien wbetu you Are'now endeavouring to render: 'copular. In my next I shall analyse your elaborate discourses, and show of what queer materials they are composed. I aril, sir, . your obedient servant, . Liverpool, September 21, 1835. A WELSHMAN HEATON PARK RACER SIP. R. W. BULKELEY, STEWARD. This fashionable Lancashire sporting meeting, the greatest annual treat the Manchester gentlemen have, for which they are indebted to that patriotic noblemen, the Earl of Wilton, commenced on Wednesday last, under the most faveurable, auspiees, so far as the entries _were concerned, but rather unfa vourable as regarded the weather. At an early hour in the inorning there were indications of a stormy and disagreeable day; but, uotwitAsstaudiug this, the numerous lovers of horse racing were determined not to be disappointed of their favourite diversion, and, amid the pelting of the raiu, thousands of both the aristocracy and mobocracy were, by half-past eleven,rnoving towards the magnificent park in every description of vehicle, from the equipage of the peer to the light spring drag of the costermonger ; and it was humorous to observe the motley pro cession and the many make shifts to keep within the noble earl's rules, that no persons were to be admitted excepting in carriages or on horseback. Such was the demand for conveyances that there was not a single hackney-coach left in the town for the accommodation of those who preferred a warm fireside to a wet race-course. On arriving at the park the carriages were formed in line, parallel with the course, opposite each other, the - most distinguished having the exclusive privile,ge of the bill near to his lordship's stand, and we never saw a finer display of beauty and fashion even at Doncaster. A considerable portion of the fashionables who attended the latter meeting also attended this, amongst whom we noticed, on the Earl of Wilton's stand, (vi-i sitars, we understand, at the hall,) his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge, the Marquis of Westminster, the Marquis and Marchioness otWorcester, Lady G. Somerset, the Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Count Matuschevitz, Lord and Lady Rebell Grosvenor, Lord George Beutinck, Lord Bruce, Lord Albert Conyugharn, Lord De Roos, Sir Richard and Lady Bulkeley, Lvster, Colonel Anson and Lady, George Herbert, Esq., the. flon. Mr. Irby, George Payne, Esq., Ed mund Hornbv, Esq., Colonel Horuby, and Captain Stanley, (brother of Lord Stanley.) Immediately adjoining the Grand Stand was one erected for the gentlemen of the betting ring, which was filled by weil known sportsmen from London, Liver pool, and Manchester; amongst whom was Mr. Crockford, of St. ,fames-'street, Mr. Robinson, and many other large turf speculators. In addition to this another stand was appropriated. to the use of the public generally, the whole fitted up at his derdship's cost. Amongst the irentleMen on and about the couese we observed J. J. Trafford, Esq., of Trafford, Clement Itoyds, Esq., of Rochdale, Fenton, Esq.. of ditto, Thomas Houlds -worth, Esq., Entavisle, Esq., of Foxholes, S.

A decided inaprOVemenf has taken place since last year in the construction of one part ,of the course. Formerly the carriages were placed so close to the course, by the hill, that the spectators behind had no opportunity of viewing the races, but now a kind of second course in that part, formed by ropes, has bean made, outside which the carriages were placed so that the people could see over them. According to custom, Mr. King, of the Bush, the only distributor of the good things of life pri vileged on the course, had his pavillion laid out with every deli cacy of the season, which were pretty freely partaken of by the hungry and thirsty, who were of course washed in by the showers.

The conservatives of Middlesex are doing their work well: The result of the first five days before the revising barristers is as follows:—Objections maintained by.overseers, 81; by con servatives, 217 ; by radicals, 52. The objections taken by the overseers apply chiefly to parties who have died, gone away, or sold their property ; and a considerable majority of these cases, it is ascertained, belong to the radical force. Above 150 votes, then, have been gained, and that before a fourth part of .the whole register has been gone through. And all this has been done by a voluntary association of* a Tew of the gentry and free holders of the county, who have resolved never to relax in their exertions till they have finally rescued the county. Their suc cess can hardly admit of a doubt; and there are very few coun ties in which similar efforts would nut be crowned by a similar result.—Standard. The Ploughing Match on the Duke of Sutherland's estate, in this county, took place the 15th:inst. at Tibberton, in the pre ,euceof the Duke and Duchess pf 'Sutherland. Several of his Grace's . cottage tenants received rewards for improving their premises and bringing into cultivation wastelands withoutassist- Lime from their landlord. The rewards to the successful candi dates were given to the parties by the Duke himself, after all had partaken of the excellent dinner provided on the occasion, at Mr, Green's, of the Day House.. His Grace expressed the most anxious regard for . the interests of his tenants; and his hopes that his son would be unless at - ,ernive to their welfare.— Salopia Jutirnqk LIVERPOOL POLICE. TuEs oA Y. —(Before Alderman Sir Thos. Brancker.) COINING BASE MONEY.—George Calligan, Bridget Calligari; and Peter Brown were charged with being found in the act of coining and counterfeiting the money of the realm. Mr. Par lour stated that inconsequence of information given him he dis reeledlsall, one of his officers, to keep a watch upon the Pri s seuer Bridget' Calligau, whOm he bad before known under the name of Bridget Fitzpatrick. On Wednesday last he gave or• tiers to Ila!salt and other officers to go to the house of Calligan, in Fir-place, Charter-street, and take the parties there found into custody. He had this day received from Halsall the frag ments of amould formed of plaister of Paris, two good and on e bad sixpeuce, with the colouring attached to it;. the bad six pence was in the state in which base coin is when first taken frinn the mould; he received also another counterfeit sixpence in a more finished state, a tobacco pipe with some metal in it, some metal which had been melted, a paper containing plaister of Paris, and part of a mould bearing the impression of the ob verse aide of a sixpence. He likewise received from Ainsworth, another officer, a penknife, asmall square file and . the pieces of a broken cup with metal adhering to them. These articles are such as are used in the manufacture of base coin. The two counterfeit sixpences had been cast in the same mould, and were made of the same kind. of metal as that which he had re ceived from Halsall. Helsel' deposed that on Wednesday last, accompanied by Ainsworth and other officers, he went to a house in Fir-place; went up stairs and found the door of the only room on that floor fastened and forced it open ; some person in the inside pushed against the door; that person was Bridget Calligan; but he !pushed her aside when the, door was forced opeu ; the prisoner, who calls himself George Calligan, was in the room standing near the fire-place, and stamping upon something' under his feet; seized, threw him down, and secured him; the prisoner ran out of the room and down stairs, where he was stopped by the officers stationed there and brought back. When he had secured Calligan he examined what he had been stamping upon, and found the fragments of the mould formed of plaister of Paris, which bad been produced by Mr. Parlour. On the chimney-piece he found two good sixpences, and one bad one in an unfinished state. In the fire he found a tobacco-pipe with metal in it, and a quantity of melted metal running through the grate on. to the hearth. In a chamber vessel he found part of a: mould with:die impression of One side of a sixpence upon it. Ainsworth, the officer, depoied to the same facts. Elizabeth Money, the wife of Patrick Money, said that on Wednesday week Bridget Calligan came to her house and en gaged the lodgings for herself and her . lausband,at fifteenpence a-week. She returned in the evening with George Calligau, and they lived together as man and wale until aw a y were, taken intocustody. lid nottefiovi - how they got their ; never saw the prisoner Brown until he was taken into custody; did 'not go up stairs with the constables. George Calligan said in his defence, " I was not five minutes in the roc= ,that morning after being two days and a night away." I:ridget Calligan said, " I have fie:husband that I know of; - I know nothing about the charge; any person might go into' the room and put anything they liked into the place; there .was neither lock nor key to the door." The prisoner. Brown said, "I know nothing at all about it; I went into the room to borrow a fork."—Conimitted for trial. DETAINING PROPERTY BELONGING To SEAMEN.--A rough looking tar presented himself before the magistrate and bluntly requested his worship to order a Mrs. Brown, with whom he had recently lodged for a few days, to deliver up his clothes, which, he :saiti, she was detaining nuder pretence that he owed her money, though he had paid her every farthiug she de- Mended from him when be quitted her house. Mrs. Brown's son, who appeared for her, said that the clothes were detained because the complainant refused to pay for a razor' which he had spoiled. There was also an extra charge for the washing of souse linen. "That's all just 'cause I wants to is'out to sea, ver 'otter," said the sailor. Mr. Ellis said that by the mer chant seaman's act, lately passed, no person was allowed, an any pretence whatever, to detsiiti property belonging to seamen, under a penalty of live pounds. Alderman Sir Thomas Branc ker ordered that the clothes should he immediately given up, and recommended that the parties should endeavour to arrange amongst themselves the dispute about the small sum (35.6 d.) alledged to be owing by the seaman, as amicably as possible, WEDNESDA).—(Before Sir THOMAS BRANCEER and Mr. Alderman Hoasiat ea.) CAR-DR WEBS' OVERCH A RGES.—M r. Vapdamitne summoned Arthur Ebbs, the driver of a car, for an overcharge. He had .hired the ear at the Prince's Pier-head, from whence he had been driven to Bedford-street, and from thence back to Ex- Change-buildings, for which he demanded five shillings. The fare being only three shillings and fourpence he was ordered to refund the balance, and fined five shillings, with costs, for the .extortion. Mr. John Taylor summoned the driver of one of William Gardiner's cars for an overcharge. Mr. Taylor engaged the car eat the top of Water-street, and was driven to his house, No. 17, Bedford-street, Abercrombie-square; be gave the driver one shilling and sixpence, which he refused, and demanded two shillings, and was exceedingly ineolent sbecause he would not pay snore. Mr. Gardiner, the owner, of the car, appeared and , declared that the man had not accounted for the fare lie had received from Mr. Taylor. The magistrate fined the owner five shillings and costs for the misconduct of his servant. . A blind woman was sentenced to fourteen days imprisonment in the House of Correction for begging in Oldhall-street. Two boys were committed for trial fur breaking open a desk 'and stealing therefrom seven shillings and sixpence, the pro perty of Messes. Jones and Parry. of Vauxhall-road. ROBBERY IN A PCBLIC-110CSE.—TWO men, named James 'Aladdo: and ---e-- Rowlcson, were charged with robbing James 'Riley in a public-house. Riley stated that he arrived from AMerica in the Catectoiaia on Saturday, and that the prisoners were fellow-passengers with him in that ship., On the previous day'he had walked about the town with them, and in the course of it accompanied them to Sherlock's Hotel, in Bath-street, _where they had some whiskey and water together. He bad up wards of eighty sovereigns iu his pocket. The landlady, find ing that Riley had fallen asleep, and understanding- from her bar-maid that the prisoners were making attempts to rob him, called in a police-officer and gave them into custody, Maddox be tisahateacacsiizarn the pcuaket of Riley twen h su.Vcf:e.igns. ,As Rowleeon was not iu the room at the time the- robbery was 'committed he was discharged, and his compauion fully com mitted for trial. John Lingreen, popularly known as "happy Jack," was charged with an attempt to entice a very interesting little Welsh boy to rob his employer , who keeps a "shop iu Paiadise-street, by offering him money for anything he could steal from him. The boy informed his master, and Lingrcen was taken into custody near the shop, about which he was loitering. Mr. Batcheldor said that the prisoner had been, assisted by his wife, the leader of a gang of thieves for the last sixteen years. The prisoner said that he was a - rigger, but did not work for any par ticular master. After the case had been heard at some length the prisoner was committed for trial: Two cowkeepers were summoned before the magistrates for suffering their cows as they were being driven from the fields to occupy the foot-path in upper Frederick-street and Sperling street. Dodd, the.street-keeper, gave evidence of the fact, but from an informality in the summons the case was dismissed. The magistrates intimated to the cowkeepers that the cows could not be permitted to occupy the footpaths, and that in driving them through the streets they must take the necessary precau tions to prevent them f r om doing so. SKAAIHN'S WAGES.— Andrew Willie summoned Captain William Small, the commander of a ship in the Quebec trade, for stopping from the amount of wages due to him the sum of £1 2s. id. Captain Small said that the sailor had complained of being ill before he left Quebec; that he had offered to ad minister to him such medicines as he hail on board, but that the complainant preferred putting himself in the hands of a doctor on shore, whose bill he (the captain) had been obliged to dis charge. The total amotint claimed by Willie was £3 hi. The c aptain handed in a copy of his account against the sailor; to saine items of, which the letter: took exceptions.. These Sir Thomas Bmneker decided the magistrates had nothing to do with. Referring, however, to a recent decision at 'the Thames Police-office, London : he said that the sum stopped for medical advice and attendance must be paid to the sailor in full, and ordered the balance of £3, the sum admitted to be due if the men had not required medical advice, to be paid. The other cases' for assaults and other disorderly conduct were unimportant, and altowe her devoid of any interest. ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.-SHOW OF DAHLIAS, A brilliant show of these beautiful - flowers took place on Monday at the Zoological Gardens. The first prize, a silver cup, for the best pan of Dahlias, containing 24 blooms, was taken by Mr. Skirving, of Walton Nursery and Liverpool; the second prize by Mr. Levick, of Sheffield; and the third by Messrs. Cunningham and Son, of Paradise-street.'The first Prize for the best pan containing 12 blooms. was taken by Mr. Molyneux, Of Newshatn-house. Of the prizes for seedling dahlias ; not less than 23, three were taken by Mr. Skirving. The attendance of company was great and of the first respectability. The even iug was exceedingly propitious-. for the gala, by whirl, the day, agi eeablv to the announcement of Mr. Atkins, the worthy pro prietor of the gardens, wits to be wound up. The air was com parativelyy, warm and serene, and, although the stars werr. viei • ble, the absence of the moon was peculiarly favourable for the display of the fireworks, and encreased the effect of the count ' less number of lamps which glittered in festoons, arches, gild various tasteful devices, appended to the numerous picturesque buildings with which this establishment is adorned. The undu lations of the grounds—the clumps and beautiful foliage—highly illuminated at intervals by the pyrotechnical display of t he even -ing, and then suddenly thrown into caroparative darkness, attended by the occasional howling of the wild beasts in t heir dens, produced a striking and unique impression on the nu merous parties as they strolled through the centre 'of the grounds. The gardens were opened again on Tuesday with a continua , tion of the show of flowers, but, from the very tempestuous state of the weather and the heavy fall of rain, very few persons were in attendance. The weather cleating up towards night, a con siderable number of people proceeded to the gardens to see the illuminations and fireworks, which were repeated as ou the pre vious evening. Mr. Atkins's family party has lately received some valuable additions by the arrival of a young camel and a large collection of beautiful paroquets from - New Holland, whiise splendid and varied plumage excites unbounded admiration. Our old friend the senior elephant has also returned from his visit tO•the Dub lin zoological gardens. In his passage across the channel, his constant companion was a little boy, the son of one it the at tendants, with whom he slept. During the night, the elephant unconseicasly pressed rat her hearily•upott his little bed-fellow, so as to occasion the child to cry out for help. The animal, on hearing hint, instantly started upon his feet and joined in the cry; nor could he be appeased until the boy ceased crying, and until h e w a s satisfied that he had done him no serious injury. Ile appeared much delighted on his return to his old habitation, and on joining his female cotnpaniou ANECDOTE or LouE ExmouTH'S COOLNESS AND .COURAGE WHEN THE SHIP WAS ON FIRE.—Not less striking WAS his in fluence in those mere appalling dangers, which try the firmness of a sailor more severely than the battle. The wreck of the Dut ton is a memorable example. At a later period, during his com mand in India, the shiptwice caught fire, and was saved chiefly by his conduct. On one.of these occasions, the „Culloden was under easy sail off the coast. of Coromandel, and preparations had been made for .partially caulking the blip, when a pitch kettle, which had been heated, contrary to orders, on the fore part of the main-deck, caught fire, and the people most impru dently attempted to extinguish it with buckets of .water. the steam blew the naming pitch all around ; the oakum caught tire, and the ship was immediately in a blaze. Many of the crew jumped overheard, and others were preparing to hurry out of her, when the presence and authority of the Admiral allayed the panic. He ordered to beat to quarters; The marines to fire upon any who should attempt to leare,the ship; the yard- tackles to be cut, to prevent the boats from being hoisted out; and the fire men only to take the necessary measures for :extinguishing the fire. The captain, who was undressed in his cabin at the time of the disaster, t eceiyed an immediate report of it.froin an officer, and .hastened to the quarter-deck. Be found the Admiral calm ly giving his orders from the gangway, the firemen:exerting tbemselyes, and the rest of the crew at their quarters; all as quiet and orderly as if nothing had been going on but the.com- Ann Ali Vs du ty. .1,0r4 ,4,170..0 ' 'LOCAL YEWS.

Emmen TION.—An extraordinary and rather suspicious docu ment has been sent to us, be some unknown person, relative to' a mercantile house in this town, represented to he connected with the emigration carrying trade. The document, though printed, is anonymous, and it has not even the printer's name. In this case we cannot further allude to it without authority. It is, whether true or nut, a very serious libel, and the charges are of so monstrous a nature, that we cannot believe that any house in Liverpool could be guilty of the disgraceful practices which it descriues at great length. It is, however, worthy the attention of the law officers of the Crown. THE MURDEREIIS 61 , MR. Mosley, Ott: whose testimony his brother Joseph, and James Garside, were , executed at Horsemonger-lane gaol a short time since, for the . Werneth murder, is at length on his way to America. His aps , pearance is that of an unhappy man, pallid, sorrowful, dejected ; his body rapidly wasting, and his general contour and demea nour, from a stout, rather robust, vivacious young man, has been hurried by the " still small voice" to a lingering, faltering gait, and a dull deserted creature. Mosley has been furnished with the means of sailing to America, and a trifle to forward him to the interior, as he prefers the capacity of a navigator to the life of anything else, having been brought up to it, and knowing too that the spirit of canal making is very rife in that country, be sides being anxious "to go where uisferson could tease him about the murder."—Macclesfield Cour: KIRK DA LR GAOL.—Mary Morgan, committed at Manchester lately, for the wilful murder of her infant, arrived at Kirkdale Gaol on Monday: The three criminals, Ogden, Mellor, and ; 'l'arbuck, on whom sentence of death was passed at the late assizes held in thil, tuwu, and, who have-since laaaj.4at , sentence morrifully Cointituted to 'banishinent fur life, are still at this prison. rhey are in good health, and we are informed that sonie circumstances connected with their alleged clime have lately transpired, on the ground of which their friends took for a further amelioration of punishment. in puisuit of whiOr ob ject they are at present anxiously employed.

His highness sojourned for the night at Tattoo-park, the residence . of 'Wilbraham Egerton, Esq., and will proceed on to Heaton-park, the seat of Ear • Wilton.—Chester Courant. LAUNCH OF 4 STEAM VESSEL—Yesterday, a few minutes before twelVe o'clock, a noble steam-vessel was launched from the building yard of Messrs. Humble and Milcrest, built for Sir John Tobin, and intended, as we are informed, to. trade be tween this place and Waterford. She is, we believe; the largest vessel of the kind ever built in, or navigated from, Liverpool. The length of her keel is 182 feet; that of her deck above 200 feet. She will be propelled by two engines, of 120 horse-I)o4'er each, constructed by Messrs. George Forrester and Co., of Vauxhall-road. She went off the stocks in fine style, and re ceived the name of the Margaret on her passage to the Mersey. . - „ THE LATE :MURDER AT KEXBY AND 'MELANCHOLY Acct- • DENT.-00 readers will recollect that just two months ago, • Thomas Robinson, one of the keepers of P. B. Thompson, Esq., M.P., of Escrick Hall, near York, was mo s t b ar b arous l y mur dered, and that a young man, a farmer in the neighbourhood, has since been committed to York Castle to take his trial for the • offence. Ever since that period the greatest exertions have been used by W. Brest and H. Preston, Esq., the magistrate, to find out other parties who Must have been . concerned in, the perpetration of the deed, and although four others, named Kitson, Debnam, Hudson, and Bell, against whom suspicion had arisen, have been in custody, nothing could be elicited to .warrant their detention. Bell, who was only liberated last week, is a farmer residing on his own property. The affair, con sequently. still remains a mystery. We have now to add another Melancholy and distressing event, which has occurred in Robinvon's family. The unfortunate man who was murder-. ed had a brother at the time of his death, also in the employ ment of Mr. Thompson. His name was Edward, and he was the eldest in the family. He, too, was a game-keeper, and, in deed, the place of Thoinas was filled up, at the father's particu lar tequest, by a younger son. On Saturday afternoon it was reported that the elder brother had also been shot. The'report was founded in truth, but the occurrence was purely accidental. ltappeared that he had been outshooting, and that when he was in the act of loading his gun, it went off, and he received the contents in his body ; he lingered in great agony for some hours, when death put a I:eriod to his sufferings. A kind of fatality seems to attend the Robinson family, as a third brother was, some years ago, shot dead by a fellow apprentice in York, by accident. REVISING BARRISTERS.-The Revising Banisters fOr the South Lancashire circuit have been holding their court in Man chester for two days. Some of their most important decisions will be found in our report of the proceedings; we shall enter more into detail in our next number. This is the fourth revision of registers Which has taken place since the passing of the reform. act; and yet there appears to be as mnch difference of opinion respecting the construction of the act as to some points, as there was three years - ago. We have the decision of to-day reversed by the decision of to-morrow,,and the pdblic are left in a state of uncertainty and doubt as to what was really tile intention of, the legtslatare. At Leeds, the other day, - 3111;'t1ailison decided that the non-payment of the registration shilling was not stalk cient to disqualify a voter, and then said lie should advise every person to pay the shilling, as other barristers might decide dips.- ently. At Liverpool, the claim of a clergyinan - to vote in respect of freehold seats in his church, was admitted; and two dass af terwards a similar claim, made by another clergyman, was dis allowed, on the ground that the previous decision was an errone ous one ! ! ! We shall probably have more to say on this sub-* ject on a future occasion; but these facts are sufficient to show that some measure is necessary to de4ne more clearly the intenr tion of the legislature, and to remove the doubts and, difficultiep‘ which at present exist.---Manchester He aid.

SAGACITY OF A TURRET CocK.—A Turkey cock in the pos session of a family in the neighbourheOd of Milngavie was some weeks ago confined for various acts of misdemeanour; but especially for the part he was accustomed, to take in leading on the whole barn-yard fraternity to frequent attacks on the corn fields in the vicinity. On the.portion of the hen-house where the animal was confined there happened to be a general laying nest, which had been frequented by the different species of hens in the yard ; and as the fingers of t'he egg-gatherer bad not visit ed it for several days previous to this new appropriation of the place, it wi s well stocked. The sagacious bird, deprived not only of personal liberty, but of all society, and after, no doubt, much deliberation about what was best to be done, betook him self to—what, if the speculation proved successful, would cer tainly greatly ameliorate his lonely condition—sitting on the eggs • and altbough, about a week thereafter, his prison gate was thrown open, he altered not his purpose—he had begun a good work, and would see it out, —he on, until he sallied forth from his prison-house with a tail of seven Dung turkiea, and four chickens of the comon domestic yowl. But, what was farther remarkable, so soon as he discovered a want of proper • family likeness between his own fair proportions and some of his brood, he chucked these from him, and would • give them no quarter, while he continued carefully to defend, feed, and shel ter those of his own species, with whom he is at present an oh, ject of considerable attraction to the good people of Milngavie.. REGISTRATION SHILLING.— At • Leeds, on Friday, Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, appointed to revise the list of voters for•that borocgh, gave a decision to the effect that it is not ne cessary to pay the registration shilling.. The claim objected to was that of Mr. Webster, on the ground that he bad not paid it., Mr. Clarkson said the difficulty arose upon the words of the.s6th section, which said that the shilling should be "levied and collected from each elector, in addition to and ax part of the money payable by him as his .contribution to the poor rate;" but that it could not be considered as part of the rate " payable from him in respect of the premises': for which he claims to vote, as required by the 27th section; and therefore he did net think that the non-payment of a shilling was sufficient to dis qualify the voter, and the objection must be disallowed. THE MONTH OP SEPTEMOEft.—The third of September tkaa a remarkable day to Cromwell. In 1650 he obtained a memoa rabic victory at Dunbar, another at Worcester, 1651. and on that day he died, 1658. On September 3, 1641, the Irish rebel, lion broke out; ." and," says Aubrey, "there were 20,000 per sons barbarously massacred.". On the same da y , 1643, Bide ford, - Applefoul, and Barnstaple surrendered to the King. September 10, 16 , 13; the siege of Gloucester - sada raised. At Nuriple's Field was the following verse, cut in stone, in 1613: "Always remember The tenth of September, -- One thousand, six hundred, forty-three, And give God the glorie." - FALMOUTH, SEPT. 211.—Arrived his 'Majesty's steamer Fi re ,' fly, front the Mediterranean. She sailed from Malta on the 4th, Gibraltar on the 13th, and Cadiz on the 14th instant. Beyond what this vessel brings of intelligence front the latter place there is little to communicate, in consequence of the Blazer steamer having left so recently. On the 14th his Ma jesty's ships Malabar, Endymiou, Childers, and Scout, ar-• rived at Cadiz, and the last named vessel sailed the same day for England ; the others were to remain till further orders, in consequence of the 4:entity - ter' . manifestations in opposition to the g ove rnment at Madrid, and from tear that' violence w ou ld tollow with the popular feeling in -thesouthet n provinces, par ticularly if force be employed to put them down.
