" Nice, 180 Nov., 1859." 1:).-EPUTATION ON THE BANZiEUPTCY stLAWS. • LONDON, Nov. 22. 'ilerd Palmerston o'this morning received an important dePutation at Cambridge House,on the subject of the Bankruptcy Laws. Leading com mercial gentlemen from -most of the large towns, were present. Their object was to press npon the ;Government the necessity of passing a tlaw based on the same princl i ples as the' bill intro duced last year by Lord J. Russell. Lord Palmerston said, those who read the news papers would see, from the present position a affairs in , eycry quarter of the globe, that Lord L Russell's hands would be full with the business of his own department ; . but the.Litorney-Generali who stood athislordship's right-hand, was an able champion, and next session shoilld not pass with out a satisfactory arrangeinent being made. ". The Attorney-General.then stated the princi ples on which lie vas prepaiing a measure. He proposed the repeal of all existing 'acts, and to pass one comprehensive bill.

NORTHERN IiMB Tina. • PORTRAIT OF MR. RAREY.—A fine, lithographic portrait of Mr. Rarey, who has attained so much dis tinction as a horse-tamer, has come under our notice, and which will possess, no doubt, a considerable interest among those who must, from their connection with that noble animal, the horse, be the warm admirers of one who has done so much to bring some of even the wildest and most vicious of them into subjection and perfect training. The portrait is a full-length one, representing Mr._ Rarey leading a horse,—which is a fine specimen of those high-bred and spirited animals which he has been so wonderfully successful in rendering gentle and docile. SUDDEN DEATH.—About one o'clock yesterday after noon, a man about 60 years of age, name and residence unknewn, fell down dead in Canning-street. Dr. Moore, of No. 4, Napier-terrace, was on the spot immediately, but found life to be quite extinct. The body was re moved forthwith to the dead-house, but up to a late hour yesterday it had not been identified. We under stand that there were two pawn-tickets bearing the name of Kanard, found upon the deceaeed. One of the tickets was for a joiner's rule, pledged in Mill-street, the other ticket referred to dome article pawned at Bridson's, Scotland-road. An inquest on the body will be held to-day. HOPE-STREET CHURCH LECTURES.—The second of a series of lectures, that are now being given in connection with the above place, was delivered last night, by Mr. W. 'J. Lamport, the subject of which was "Baxter, - and the Nonconformists." The chair was taken by the Rev. W.- H. Charming, who briefly introduced the lecturer. Mr. Lamport commenced his discourse by going back a few centuries in church history, and then came gra dually up to the days of Baxter, whose history he re viewed in connection with the church, at the same time, taking care to express himself in the strongest language which he was able to quote against Presbyterianism. He was frequently appla ided by leis audience during the delivery of his address. INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS COMMITTEE.—The usual fort nightly meeting of this committee was held yesterday in the Board-room of the Schools, Kirkdale, Mr. Bairstow in the chair. There were also present Messrs. Owen, Critchley, Archer, Cook, Turner, Satchel!, and Whitty.—The Governor's report showed the number in 'the schools to be 444 boys, and 404 girls; making a total of 848 ; being an increase of twe since the last re port. Of these 53 were sick, and in the infirmary.--A conversation took place in reference to the religious designation of a little boy of eleven years of age, named William Garley. It appeared that the child desired to be' a Woman Catholic, while his mother, who is at present undergoing a term olimprisonment for felony, requested that he should be a Protestant. Mr. Whitty thought the child should be allowed to act according to the dictates of his conscience, while others thought that he should be made to obey the wishes of his mother. . It was finally agreed that he should be sent back to the workhouse.. This was all the business of any con sequence. SALE OF SHOPS IN CHURCH-STREET.—Yesterday, Mr. Branch sold, at the Clarendon-rooms, the two valuable freehold shops in Church-street, immediately opposite St. Peter's Church, in the occupancy of Messrs. Roger son and Woodward, silk mercers. The property has a frontage to Church-street of 37 feet, and runs back along Williamson-street, to a depth of 68 feet 9.inches. With the improvements contemplated in the immediate neigh bourhood, the situation for shop, purposes is perhaps the most eligible in Liverpool ; and nearly all the tradesmen having establishments in the vicinity-attended the sale. The conditions 'of sale were of the usual character, and Air. Branch stated that the property had been let on lease in 1846 to Messrs. Rogerson and Woodward for a term of twenty-one years, at a yearly rental of £330. Mr. Johnaon made 'the first bid, .£4,000: and a very active competition immediately ensued, the bids advanc ing £lOO at a time. - The competitors .for purehase were Messrs. Johnson, Sweeting, Smith, Anderson, and Gill ham. The biddings advanced to an offer of £7,650,' made by Mr. Gillham, who then stopped. Mr. Sweet ing bid £7,660, and at that price the property was knoelied.down to him. Mr. Sweeting, we understand, bOught 'on behalf of Mr. James Henderson and Son, drapers, Church-street.

J. Knox presided; and the meeting was addressed by the Rev. Dr. Baylee, 'the Rev. J. :13.'Lowe, M.A., of St. Jude's, Liverpool, and a number of other clergymen. The re port, which gave a good account of the financial affairs' of the society, having, been read .by the secretary,. Mr. Rush, and adopted, the' Ghairman stated that it hadbeen determine'd not to propose any resolutions to the meet ing, ns it was deemed entirely supererogatory. Ile then introduced Dr. Baylee, who, in the course of his remarks, said that the propagation of the Gospel amongst. the Jews gas the most difficult field of missionary labour from many . causes, but chiefly he conceived from the :peculiar social condition of that people. Yet, with all disadVantages the proportion of Jews converted to the truth .was 'fully as great as the average converted' throughout the whole heathen' world, and immeasurably greater. than the number of converts from Mohammed-. anism. - The addresses of the other speakers consisted principally 'of synopses of- the arguments in favour of missionary effort on behalf of the Jews ; pointing out the urgent necessity' of their care, _and the imperative duty of all Christians to use the most untiring zeal, and the most persevering effort to. bring about a result so pregnant with blessings to humanity at large, as that of bringing the Jews within the pale of Christianity. The business of the meeting terminated with the usual vote of . thanks to the chairman. THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The ,seciety gave their ninth subscription concert. last night, the principal performers bein b .o. the Brousilfamily, assisted by Miss Messent and Isliss Hiles. As this' Was an undress concert, and the prices lower than usual, we presume that the programme was intended to be rather a popular one, otherwise we should have said that the Brousil family, clever • as. they ere, 'were rather "small 'deer" for Ai' Philharmonic Concert.. This remark, how ever, does rot apply to Madlle. ,Bertha Brousil, whose playing of Spohr's " Concerto ,Dramatique," which would have been called -very good even for a first-rate finished was, for one so young, a really wonder . ful performance. ,She.was equallygood in hiendelssohn's- Andante from the . violin concerto, and her duet with her littlebrother.Aloys Was very prettyand very well played by both, and gained an encore. Theprincipal instrumen tal feature or. the evening was Mcaidelssohn's beautiful. Italian Symphony, in which the composer has einhOdied. the feelings called forth by a visit to that land of poetical associations. The programme contained an analysis of the feelings under which we might slip pose the symphony to .have been produced & :accompanied. by 'a series of poeticalquotations illustrative of the character and meaning of the different movements—the' same, if, we remember aright, which were printed some . years ago in the programme ,of.the London Orchestral Union, when , that society performed the symphony . here. It would , be a very good step .if this kind of analytical programme were introduced hare as a regular thing, as we believe it has'been sometime-since at the metropolitan coaceits. The songs in the ,first part of the concert were Bishop's " Tell me, my heart," by Miss Messent, iArne's fine; though old-fashioned, song "Thg soldier'' tired," which wa s ver y' w ell su n g by MiSs Hires, arid ;was encored. The second part commenced with itossini's overture to "Il Barbierei" which was followed by "Home, sweet Home" from Miss hfcssent, which is, we think, a ',ittie hackneyed by this time. Miss Messent afterwards sung with Miss Hiles Gloxer's duet ." We come from fairy bowers." The chorus had, in the first 'part of the concert, Handel's charming serenade " May no rash Under ' which went very well. Lithe second part they . sung a four-part song, "The Cricket," put down to the account of Hargreaves, but whiel turned out to be our . old friend ," Harmonious Blacksmith," arranged as a song--arid .4 - very pleasing' one it' makes. The yiarket .1 chorus from " Masaniello" was sung with great spirit, and the concert concluded with Wagner's March, from "TaiinhauSer," which, as a specimen of the • " Masic:of' the Future," does not promise anything 'very extraor- • dinary, save that the instrumentation appeared, to our .ears, to be rather bald and noisy. We.are glad. to see. Mrs. Davison (late Arabella God flard), aid Herritenienyi, annonnced - for the next con cert, 'which We 'have 'no doubt; with such performers, will 'wove' .an interesting one, and draw a larger audience than the somewhat scanty one which occupied the body of the hall last night. • The quarantine at Malta on arrivals from Tripoli has been abolished,. while that against. Bengazi, and Derna: has been - reduced to an observation 'of seven-clays. 'NCB:EASING OUTWARD OVER. ..ND MAIL.-:—The mail" packet carried over from Dover .to.

The whole of the reserved seats were occupied, and the rest . of the house, which is capable of accommodating a large number of persons, was well filled. Mr. Rarey on entering the circle was received with applause. His appearance is not what some might expect who know him only by the reputation of an in vincible tamer of wild or vicious horses, but rather that of an intelligent, Tuna, and good-iatured gentleman — indeed, gentleness and kindness, combined with firm ness, are evidently essential characteristics of his method. On this occasion, he proceeded to give three practical :illustrations of his system, accompanying the process, in each case, by explanatory remarks, to enable pal ties desirous of practising it to go to work for themselves. The notorious Cruiser was first led into the arena by Mr. Rarey: This horse was once so vicious that he baffled every attempt to tame him, and was kept in a strong iron cage like a lion or tiger, no one daring to approach him, and could only be fed by shutting him into one half of his den while his food was deposited in the other, and being thus entirely useless was kept merely as a curiosity of un tameable ferocity, and as such was visited by many. Now, however, he was seen following Mr. Rarey in whatsoever direction he listed, as gentle and docile as a pet lamb. Mr. Rarey, after describing the many acts of destruction performed by this horse in his former state, minutely explained how he first entered the animal's den alone and unprotected, and allowed Cruiser to walk up to examine his unexpected visitor, without any show of opposition, or desire to step away from him. The consequence was, that this natural confidence induced the horse to stand naturally and quietly beside him, without any attempt at violence. Mr. Rarey then exhibited the heavy -iron collar and muzzle with which Cruiser had been laden, up to the time of his first interview, but which was then taken off, and has not since been requited, for Cruiser has never shown any desire to return to his vicious pranks ; except on one occasion, on being trifled with, and unreasonably provoked, when he snapped at the groom's shoulder. _The second horse introduced to the spectators was a well-bred brown horse, which had become very vicious . by improper treatment ; and as he was led into the circle, he soon gave ocular demonstration of his vicious temper, as he kicked out right and left, and snapped with ;his teeth in every direction. Mr. Rarey took this opportunity of stating that there were more biting and kicking horses in this than in any other country in the world, and that it arises from bad usage on, the part of grooms and others ; and as a contrast to our manner of coercing horses, he adduced the practice of continental natives, some of whom use neither bit nor whip, and yet drive their horses at nearly as good a speed as Englishmen do. Mr. Rarey here laid down the principles upon which he based his treatment, namely, that the horse is the most . intelligent of all animals, and that he can derive his intelligence only through his .senses of seeing, hearing, sinelling, and feeling,;—touch being what Mr. Rarey called the satisfying sense of the horse, which he exer cises chiefly by-his nose, being. also very susceptible, all over his coat. The horse feels objects with his nose, as we do with our hands. 'You cannot compel a horse to believe in any object being harmless by mere physical . force. He must first examine it. When - he is once 'satisfied, he kno . ws no fear. .A horse ought never to be forcibly and rudely taken hold of. . It is just as .wrong to grab at a horse as. it would be to grab 'ate your friend's nose on meeting him. The horse is, perhaps, the most sensitive of all animals, and will, answer softer to delicate ,than to rough handlinge--in illustration of which, Mr. Rarey cited an instance of a vicious horse having been subdued by' a lady sooner than most men could have done it. A horse ought to be' touched with as much delicacy as a canary bird. Not one person in a thousand knew how to touch a horse ; and - one of the most difficult things for a groom to acquire, was - that exceeding softness 'of handling which was - - absolutely necessary to the success of his system. .He then chewed how, in teaching a horse, it was proper to begin with his head.; and in a fe w minutes he led this horse, by a straw passed through the rings of the - -bridle, turning him hither, And thither in every direction without diffi culty. Mr. Rarey objected to heavy bits —A, horse will be more easily managed by a light than a heavy one. The horse was not naturally vicious, and was wholly unconscious of his strength ; and if in his first encounter with man he discovers that he can over master him,: "is sure to manifest his vicious propensi ties until he become convinced that man is his superior. Hence a poling or wholly unbroken horse is more easily subdued than one that has been made vicious by his groom. To convince such a horse that he was its superior was all that was necessary to satisfy the animal; while ever after that impres sion has been produced on him, he may 'be dealt . with like a child.. On producing the :two small simple straps from his pocket, Mr. Rarey said. these were the only instruments he.used to convince the horse that he . 'was superior to. him, the use of which he said not one in. ten -thousand. understood _properly. They were in tended to teach the horse that resistance was useless— nothing mere,nrid they Were never required more than •tex .pr fifteen minutes at a . time ; while, by their means, any horse whatever might very easily be taught to stand loose to be shod. Mr.. Rarey then began to manipulate this horse by gradually smoothing down' the fore leg nearest him—the left leg. He then easily put on the first Strap, and, lifting 'up the foreleg, buCtled it firmly above the - knee, fastened a roller, not very tightly, round the chest, and' another longer strap to the ankle of - the right foreleg. rlerethe horse showed considerable excitability, and manifested symptoms which satisfied Mr. Rarey that the same process.must already have been unsuccessfully attempted upon this horse by. incompetent hands. Several attempts to bring, the animal to his knees produced an extraor dinary and most terrible struggle between the now greatly excited horse and the skilful operator, who maintained the contest with great coolness and deter-: mination. Once the horse broke away from' him, but qaietly stepping up to the bridle he again led . him to the centre, and renewed the onset,. when the horse plunged and tumbled; fairly rolling over on his back, he then regained his fect,'but again his subduer was ..at his' side, and finally the conquered animal, was brought upon his knees, and after the most exhausting struggles, fell on its side, panting and worn-ant. After breathing hard, however, for a short time, the . noble animal had determined to make another effort, and again got up onehis knees—a step which .the trainer rather approved of, as itonly gave the horse another convincing proof that he was in his pOwer—and again he rolled over . on his side, when Mr. Rarey fastened the second Strap, which he had hitherto held in his hand, to the girth. Again the spirited animal made an effort to rise, and again got on his knees; but it, of course, proved as anavailing as ever, and on tumbling back for the third . , time it became evident the horse was satisfied that it was of no use, and he tried it no more. It was stated that when the horse was on his knees.no attempt should. be made to force him to fall on his side. He ought to . be allowed to do so. only when exhausted and of his own accord. Mr. ; Rarey was then:permitted to handle the limbs in any way he liked, without resistance ; and, in w th h e o e le nd, ,bo l d ie n la w y j d th ow a n, s remonstrance little between : the th h e r .p s a e r ' s t hli heels. He also :pushed and - tumbled about -the of the animal: as if it had been 'unconscious. He then undid, the- straps, and by:degrees permitted the horse to. risei after which, he-:mounted. it—put the saddle on, and mounted again—taught it to run in any direction, and 'stop at' the word of command. In ex planation gf • some remaining indications -of its old propensities, Mr. Rarey stated that it would take two 1 hours and a-half instead of half an hour to 'thoroughly' subdue thiS horse, which had been spoiled. by former badusage. • Bat it was manifest to all present, that ix the brief period for_which the horse had 'been manipulated, already great progress had been made i subduing its vices; and ,he then rode it quietly out of the circus amid much applause. . , The -next instance was that of a young mare named " Barbarian," four years old, belonging to Mr. Alex. Powell, which had never been broken or handled, but which, its owner stated, in a note to Mr. Rarey, which_ was read, enjoyed the reputation of being "very handy with her heels." Mr. Rarey at once put a bit into its knees, Another speedily and attempt b ye o mouth, and drew on a bridle—which was endured very quietly. M r . R are y th en wen t th r ough the u s ual pro cess with the straps, which we have just described, succeeded afte r a s t rugg l e i n th row i ng the animal o n it s e a ittll laS ' th and t obpyegrtor N succumbedal endedlo w a s eindi similarly, lta l o a r l y yh, d a o na w dr very n l e its legs and head in the most familiar man ner—sitting upon, and jumping over it as it lav, as freely as he would have done to a log of wood. After raising it to its feet, it permitted a drum to be beat as loud as possible on its back, without the slightest manifestation of excitement or concern. No thing could have been more completely successful than this illustration of Mr. Rarey's humane and intelligent system of dealing with this the noblest and most valu able of all the animals given to man for his use. It will be seen from an advertisement that Mr. Rarey will repeat his highly interesting performance on Thurs day, at greatly reduced prices for admission. Iu making this concession, he has been actuated bya desire to meet the wishes of several omnibus proprietors, and other owners of numerous horses, who are desirous of having their grooms instructed in Mr. Rarey's principles. These, to number of half a hundred or more, they propose to pay for the ' introduction of, and in accordance with their wish, and his own desire to spread a knowledge; of the proper training of the horse, Mr. Rarey concedes the abatement in price. The performances and lecture, on Thursday will, as before, take place in llengler's Circus, in Dale-street, on which occasion he has been promised to have a very vicious entire horse to operate upon. There is no doubt that on Thursday he will have a still more crowded house than yesterday. COURT, AND OFFICIAL INTELLIGENCE..

The establishment of the financial commission has not produced any favourable impression at the Bourse. The measure is regarded as being only a palliative." TILE BISHOPRIC OF SIERRA. LEONE.—The bishopric - of Sierra Leone, having been vacant nearly six months, has.been conferred ,by the Crown upon the Rev. E. H. Beckles; who has been for many years past rector of St. 'Peter's, St. Christopher's, in the diocese of Antigua, and who is at present on •a. visit to London. Mr. Beckles is the fourth Bishop of 'Sierra Leone, his three predecessors having fallen victims to the dread ful climate. The see was constituted in 1852, and, the first bishop appointed was the Rev. Owen meric Vidal, of St. John's College, Cambridge,' incumbent of Trinity Church; Arlington, Sussex. He had not pur-. sued his episcopal duties many months when he sickened and came :back to England for the restoration of his health. When he had partially recovered, he determined on returning to his diocese, and died on his passage back. He was succeeded in the episcopate by the Rev. John Wells Weeks, incumbent of St. Thomas's Church, Lam beth, who was consecrated in Lambeth Parish Church in 1865. He died at his post early in 1867, and was. • succeeded by the Rev. Dr. Bowen, of Trinity College, . Dublin, rector of Orton Longueville, near Peterborongh,, a gentleman who had travelled very much in the East; and who was associated with Mr. Layard, in many of his investigations. He was consecrated in the chapel of Lambeth Palace, on the '23rd of September, 1857. On the the 17th of December, in the same 'year, he arrived at Sierra Leone, and on the 28th of May last he died in consequence of a malignant attack of yellow fever. The bishop designate will be consecrated by the Archbishop of Canterbury as soon as the formal preliminaries can be - settled. He will have jurisdiction, as his predecessors have bad, over the coast between 20 degrees north and. 20 degrees south latitude, and more especially the colo nies of Sierra Leone, the Gambia, the Gold Coast, and. their dependencies. The gross income of the see is £9OO a year, being £5OO a year as the bishop's, allowance as colonial chaplain, and' £4OO ayear from the. Colonial Bishop - ties - Fund. Mr. Beckles' views are , Evangelical, and, in.niatters of ecclesiastical discipline, he is said to incline .to:the Low Church party. . sprting A A . st M lf ill uE E , 1 riles., O Ln F .Eaaasgi .6, , 1 1 Slll CHASESt' * 00:N ../ R .. \V ; I C ( K Ts H.
