The indisputable Testimonials given by men of the first talent and experience in the kingdom, as to the p,erfect reliance that may be placed upon KYAN'S PROCESS of PREPARING TIMBER to resist the effect of DRY ROT and other Decay, are so entirely satisfactory as to require no further remark. The efficacy of the Process is sufficiently established by the Evidence contained in the Report to the Lords of the Admiralty, and subsequently presented to and printed by the House of Commons; and likewise by the adoption of it by his Majesty's Government in Portsmouth.

By the use of this Process .BRITISH AMERICAN TIMRER will be rendered equally as valuable as Timber from the Baltic ; and thus the produce of BRITISH COLONIES will be encouraged preference to Timber of Foreign Growth. It is found that Timber cut dawn while in a state of active vegetation, with the leaf growing, becomes, by the application of this Process, immediately fit for use ;—thus rendering every species of DOMESTIC TIMBER of the same value and as avail able as the best Foreign, for all purimses incidental to Farming and Husbandry ;—and, by the use of the most common Woods, economy will be combined with durability, and the Aualcui. - TonAL INTEREST will derive incalculable advantages.

Committee-rooms, 39, Westmorland-street, Dublin, Oct. 15,1835. At a Special Meeting of the Committee of the above Society, held this day, the following Resolutions were unanimously adopted :- 1. Resolved,—That the session of Parliament having passed without the enactment of any effectual measure for the better regulation of Church property in Ireland, and the recent deter mination of Government having thrown upon the Irish clergy increased ditUculty in the recovery of their composition rents (which must oblige them either to abandon their rights altoge ther or institute suits in the superior courts, the expense of which the would be unable to bear), the circumstances of the clergy have thus become such as to demand from our Society a still greater degree of sympathy and increased exertions on their behalf. 2. Resolved,—That we feel it, therefore, our imperative duty to call upon those in both countries who respect the rights of property and are desirous to support the law, to co-operate with us in extending more widely the benefits of this Society, and for this purpose we deem it right to submit to them the following statement of its objects and proceedings. The difficulties under which the clergy laboured in conse quence of the extensive and well organized combination against them induced a few influential individuals, in September, 183-1, to form a fund for the protection of Church property, to be solely applicable to the purpose of aiding the clergy in resisting that combination, and in asserting their just rights by process of law. The funds are vested in the names of six noblemen, who consented to act as trustees, and a Committee formed, whose duty it was tuinceetigate, ennuidar, and decide upon the best means of forwarding the objects for which the fund was raised. It was not, however, deemed necessary to take measures for giving general publicity to the existence and proceedings of the Society, whilst the efficiPncv Of its operations remain to be proved by experience. The 'Committee hare great satisfaction in being able 7101 V to state, that the results of their proceedings hare fully realized the expectations entertained, no case, undertaken with their sanction, having been unsuccessful, and in most in stances the opposing , ' parties having been obliged to pay the debt With all costs. Upon the accession of the late administration, it was confi dently hoped that the question of church property would have been honourably and finally settled, and the session of parlia ment having been so long protracted, the committee, in the uncertain state of public affairs, did not deem it advisable to extend its operations, or to make any appeal to the public. The committee, however, feel that the time has now arrived when they are called upon to make known their readiness and fixed determination to afford every aid that their means will admit of to resist the flagrant violation of the rights of pro perty under which the clergy are suffering; and they most ear nestly invite all whose properties have not as yet been invaded, and who sympathise with those who have been deprived of the enjoyment of theirs to furnish them with funds to carry their objects more completely into effect. By the fundamental prin ciple of the Society, the fund (which is placed to the credit of the trustees in the Bank of Ireland) is solely applicable to the purpose of contributing to reimburse the clergy the necessary expences they shall have incurred in asserting their legal rights, by process of law, in cases which after due investigation are approved of in all respects by the Committee. The Committee have met regularly ever since the first form ation of the Society, and continue to meet at 39, Westmore land-street, Dublin, where all communications and coutribu tions are received, addressed to the Secretary or Treasurer, or any member of the Committee.

AN APPEAL ON BEHALF OF THE PROTESTANT EPISCOPALIAN INHABITANTS OF THE TOWN OF ST JOHN'S„NEWFOUNDLAND. riltlE.,Town of St. John contains above thirteen, thousand souls,—about eight thousand are Hornets Catholics, and the remaining the thousand are principally attached to the Church of England. The only Protestant Epis opal Church in St. Johns' accommodates about eight bun& persons; the Dissenting Congregations may amount to alto one thousand; thus leaving about three thousand Protesta without any ac commodation in a place of worshiT This vii has been felt and acknowledged for years. In lb' 7, an application was made to Government to aid the erection of a new Church, but without success. Since that time the Protestant population has consi derably increased; and the present Archdeacon, the venerable Edward Wix, A.M., has, during the last five years, made re peated efforts to raise from the inhabitants the requisite funds for that purpose, but owing in a great degree to their pecuniary inability he has not succeeded. Two years since the Arch r deacon visited England, with a view of raising contributions for the effectuating of this desirable object; but at that time, in consequence of the Society for the Propagation of the Gos pel in Foreign Parts snaking a public appeal in aid of their Funds, he wilt:Often dissuaded front pressing this object on the British public. The evil, however, resulting to the Protestant inhabitants, from - the want of sufficient Church accommodation; has been so appaNat, and the spiritual destitution of the poor iu this respect has been so keenly felt by the Archdeacon, that he has on his own responsibility - commenced the erection of a new Church in St. John's, depending entirely upon the result of this appeal to the British people, to enable him to meet the engagements he has entered into for its completion. The building has progressed so far, that it is expected that the ChurcS. will be open'for divine service on next Easter Sunday; and it is confidently hoped that a generous British public, who are ever ready to minister to the wants of their poorer brethren, will answer thus appeal with liberality. Two thousand pounds are immediately required for the ob ject; and should a larger su.n be contributed, the building will be enlarged accordingly.

The Kirig has commanded ins to signify to you his gracious approval of the caution with which your pro ceedings have been regulated in this particular, an approval which you will duly intimate to the parties who have signed the memorial, apprising them, at the same time, that although it will be your ditty, under his Majesty's instructions, to stiffer as little delay as possible to occur in completing the umber of the iinotncial ine;,ibers, to that of which it is the wish of his Majesty that the legislative body should be ultimately composed, yet that his Majesty cannot with that view relax any of the restric tions which have been imposed on the selection of fit and proper persons to discharge those high and important functions. (Signed) " T. SPRING RICE. "To the Right Hon. Sir It. W. Horton, Bart." His excellency concluded his address by stating that in the September ensuing a legislative council would be summoned for the purpose of framing certain ordonances which would be laid before them by the executive government. LONDON LAW AND POLICE COURTS. BANKRUPTCY COURT-THURSDAY WHITEHEAD, HOWARD, HADDOCK, AND CO.'S BANKRUPTCY The bankrupts in this case were bankers, of Cateaton-street, against whom a commission was issued on the 16th of Novem ber, 1814. The proceedings under the commission have been going on ever since, and a meeting of the creditors was held to day for the declaratian of a final dividend. The total estimated amount of the debts due by the firm at the first meeting of the creditors was £277,835 4s. 7d., and the credits and assets were expected to realise £218,216 6s.,leaving an apparent deficiency of about £59,616. The fast dividend, amounting to 10s. in the pound, within about six months after the bankruptcy, the proofs and claims then amounting to £129,822. Five other di vidends were subsequently declared, the last announced being in August, 1829, and in all amounting to 16s. laid. in the pound. The total amount of the proofs at the period of the last diVidend was declared was about £129,800. Upon the private estates of two of the bankrupts dividends in full had been paid to the separate creditors. The executor of one of the bankrupts (Mr. Haddock) applied for the allowance which was due to the estate of the bankrupt The deceased, though articles of partnership had been signed by him with the firm, received a ealary only, being,. in fact, merely a clerk. In cousequer.ce of the bankruptcy, however, of the banking firm, the private property of the deceased party was taken to the amount of £7,000, which went to pay in part. the joint creditors of the firm. Under these circumstances, therefore, the court would allow to the estate he represented an allowance equal to his interest. The solicitor on behalf of the estate had not any idea that such a claim would have been brought forward. It was cer tainly true that the private assets, to the amount stated, of the clerk, who was.a partner, however, according to law, had been taken. _ _ • The Commissiolier asked how much the party had already received? The executor stated £2lO, and his household furniture. The Commissioner said the bankrupt, according to statute, was entitled to seven and a half per cent., which would amount to above £500; as he ,had received already £2lO, he should direct £290 in addition to be paid to the estate. The opinion of the court was asked as to the mode in which the interest thit had accrued upon the investment of unclaimed dividends should be,appropriated. A considerable sum had ac cumulated in this way, and those parties to the commission con sidered it unfair that those creditors who had regularly received their dividends should participate in the accumulations of in terest upon dividends that had been unclaimed. It was a point upon which no decision had yet been given. The Commissioner said he should consider the subject. The amount of the final dividend was expected to have been about one penny in the pound, but in consequence of the allow ance claimed by the executor of one of the bankrupts a frac tional part of a penny only will be divided. THE NEW CORPORATIONS A fifth supplement to the London Gazette of Friday contains the decision of the revising barristers relative to the warding and assignment of the following municipal boroughs, which de cisions are, however, disapproved of—viz., Lincoln, Maidstone, Newark, Newcastle-under-Line, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Ports mouth, Reading, Shrewsbury, Southampton, Stamford, Sunder land, Truro, Walsall, Winchester, Worcester, and York. The form of disapproval is as follows: " And whereas the division and assignment so made by the barristers appear to be in certain particulars liable to objection, now, therefore, his Majesty, by advice of his Privy Council, Both hereby disapprove of such determination of the said barris ters, and of the number of Councillors so assigned to each ward of the said borough; but, nevertheless, his Majesty, by the ad vice.aforesaid, doth order that the particulars of the division and assignment so made by the said barristers shall be published in the London Gazette, iu order that such force and validity may be given thereto as is authorized and directed by the said Act." The Act states that in case of disapproval the awards must be referred to the revising barristers for their farther consideration —their previous decisions remaining valid for the purpose of elections, until their subsequent report shall be approved of by the Privy Council. The words of the Act are— " Povided always, that if his Majesty, by advice of his Privy Council, should not appovo such determination, such publication as aforesaid should nevertheless be made, and such division be in force, for the purpose of any election under the provisions of the said act, and until such time as his Majesty should, by ad vice of .his Privy Council, upon further information and report from such barristers, definitely approve the division of such borough into wards in manner therein before mentioned." 'The same applies to the assignment of councillors. It appears therefore that should the revising barristers aslhere to their decis ions, they will remain valid for all the practical purposes or the Act. STATE OF TRADE. TRADE OF LEEDS.—The cloth trade of this district is dull as compared with what it was a month ago. Within the last fort night several firms have discharged a portion of their workmen, and the purchases of.balk cloth in the halls have been smaller than for some time previous; but there is still a good deal of business doing, and wool maintains its price. BRADFORD MARKET.—On Thursday there was a fair share of business done in manufactured goods, considering the ad vanced period of the year, and there were also asnod many transactions in wool and yarn. Prices remained firm. ROCHDALE, DEC. 7.—We had a Cuter market to-day. Seve ral buyers who generally attend were absent. Indeed we do nut expect ionch business this month, and, therefore, the flat ness occurs almost as a matter of course. In wools the market was dull, bat no alteration in price either in wool or goods. NORTHAMPTONSHIRE ELECTION.—The Wellingborough Dis trict Conservative Association celebrated their third anniversary on Thursday bye dinner at the Hind Hotel in that town. Thomas P. Maunsell, the candidate for the seat vacant by the death of Lord Milton, and who will be this day put in nomina tion as the successor of that nobleman, was present, and address ed the meeting at considerable length. In the course of his speech he said:—lt ought not to he forgotten that we are op posed to a government that exists only by means of the preca rious support which it receives from the popish party—a govern ment who are anxious to overturn the protestant church by heartlessly consigning the ministers of t hat church to want and beggary. The proposal to sacrifice the established religion of the country—to obtain the favour of a popish demagogue has been fortunately resisted for the present; but as, no doubt, a similar experiment will be made in the ensuing session of par liament, I did not hesitate to offer reyself to the notice of ray conservative friends when a vacancy occurred, and nobly, most nobly, have you done your duty. (Cheers.) What ray prin ciples are you all know. In loyal attachment to our glorious constitution, as it exists in king, lords, and commons, I yield to no man, nor can any one be more anxious to uphold the just rights and privileges of our protestant church. I was educated in the lap of protestantism, and my affection and veneration for it has grown with ray growth and strengthened with my strength. _ _ _ MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS.—In a fifth supplement to the London Gazette of Friday last, published yesterday, the division and assignment made by the revising barristers in the following boroughs "appearing to he in certain particulars liable to ob jection," the same are disapproved of by the Privy Council, "but nevertheless his Majesty, by the advice of his Privy Coun cil, cloth order that the particulars of the division and assign ment so made by the said barristers shall be published in the London Gazette, in order that such force and validity may be given thereto as is authorized and directed by the said act: " Lincoln, Maidstone, Newark, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Newcas tle-upon-Tyne, Portsmouth, Reading, Shrewsbury, Southamp ton, Stamford, Sunderland, Truro. Walsall, Winchester, Wor cester, and York. 'Through inadvertance, it was stated in the paragraph on this subject in yesterday's paper, that the division and assignment made by the revising barristers in the following boroughs, the particulars of which were published in the fourth supplement to the Gazette of Friday• last, were approved of, whereas they were, like the foregoing, disapproved of :—Bristol, Bury, St. Edmund's, Cardiff, Carnarvon, Chichester, Deal, Devizes, Doncaster, Dover, Durham, Gateshead, Kingston upon-[-lull, Kirkby-Kendal, Lancaster, and Leicester. 111011 C CENTRALIZATION NEXT SESSlON.—Amongst the im portant questions intended to be brought forward duriug the next session is a biil for the consolidation of the whole of the turnpike trusts throughout the kingdom. That much may be done by consolidating the numerous smaller trusts into larger districts—say ten to twenty for the whole kingdom —we admit, but we trust that the independent members of the legislature ivill be prepared to protest against the centralization system, so beloved by the philosophical reformers of the present day, with its host of commissioners, secretaries, &c.—Morning Herald. THR ADMIRALTY LIST.—The death of Rear-Admiral Joshua Sydney Horton, who died at Bpulogne-sur-Mer, on the 24th ult., aged 67 years, makes the twelfth Admiral of various ranks, viz. :—Six Admirals, two Vice-Admirals, and four Rear-Ad mirals (including three from the retired list), who have died since the Ist of January of the present year, besides twenty post captains. GIVE US A LOCK OF YOUR HAIR MY DARLING?—AD Ame rican paper states that a lock of Washington's hair has been placed in the hands of a gentleman about to sail for England, with directions to cause it, on his arrival there, to be set in a breast-pin, at a cost of fifty dollars to the donor, and to be handed to Lord John Russell, as a present from an American citizen, who admires his political course.-4 This sounds very like a second edition of Cobbett and Tom Paine's bones.] ANALYSIS OF THE DUVIZES POLL.—As the Devizes election appears to have caused a very general sensation through the country, we insert au analysis of the votes from the list just published of those . persons who polled on the 25th ult., the de scription or title being taken from the said list : For For Esteourt. Dundas. Esquires. Gentlemen - Clergy of the establishment 4 1 Solicitors Members of the medical profession 5 4 Bankers Dissenting ministers 0 3 Members of the established church lll 35 Dissenters l3 110 Though the majority for Mr. Esteourt was only 12, it would have been upwards of 40, had all voted for him who decidedly promised to do so. We have heard that 11 persons who gave him positive promises in the presence of witnesses voted for Captain Dunda's, stx others were sent out of the way, and three others were neutral. The solitary clergyman who voted for Dundas was the Rev. J. Mayo, chaplain to the House of Cor rection, and Old Bridewell, Devizes.—Salisbury Herald. k it, • ~ DECD AIBER 15, 1835• LIVER THEATRE, LIVERPOOL, IT is respectfully an nounce d th a t thi s Th ea t re w ill Open foi I the Season ou MONDAY next, the 21st instant.

They contain advices from Jamaica to a later date than any we have yet been favoured with, namely, to the 7th November. Under this head the New York Journal of Commerce, of the 21st ultimo has the following : From Jamaica.—We received, at an early hour this morning, papers from Kingston, Jatnaica, to the Pith November, brought by the ship Orbit, just arrived from that port. We have no time to give extracts, and therefore confine ourselves to paying that the contents of these papers continue to be strongly cative of the growing discontent produced on the island—and it .- is the most important possession of the British in the West Indies—by the apprenticeship system introduced on the aboli tion of negro slavery. The public will recollect that the late Jamaica legislature was dissolved by the Marquis of Sligo, the governor, in consequence of the unceremoneous manner in which they treated his mes sage to them. Elections have since taken place for members to the colonial assembly, and almost all the former members have been returned. They had elected a speaker, audit was doubted whether the governor would approve their choice. The Island of St. Christophers has been visited by a tornado, which had caused great damage. The Chevalier de Bernard, attorney-general of Guadeloupe, who had been sent to Jamaica by the French government to ascertain how the apprenticeship system was working there, has arrived here in the Orbit. It is rather singular that these journals contain little or nothing in reference to the great question of Agar or peace between France and the United States. That great preparations are making we can only arrive at in cidentally. The citizens of . i.`,Tew York are naturally enough opposed to the war, and consequently they do not discuss a question according to their convictions merely because the side opposed to their own is popular with the great mass of their readers. Their silence is therefore ominous. The following is all we can glean ; but it shows that,the government are actively engagedn pie paring for the conflict : MORE SHIPS OF WAR.—We understand that the navy com missioners have made an application to the Grand Island Com pany through their agents, Samuel Allen, &c., &c., of this city, for the keel•pieces of four ships of the line and five frigates, in addition to those contracted to be finished by them in August last. They wil; be brought down the canal early next spring. A correspondence had taken place between one of the departments of the government and the proprietors of the New York Times, relative to the revival of theslave trade between New York and the coast of Africa. The correspondence is curious, and we subjoin it : United States District Attorney's Office, New York, Nov. 17th, 1535. TO THE EDITORS OF THE JOURNAL OF uONINIERCE. Gentlemen,—l enclose for publication the following state ment. On the 24th of June last I received from the Secretary of State a letter of which the subjoined is a copy : " Department of State, June 23, 1835. Sir,—The President's attention has been called to a para graph in the New York Times of the 19th instant, containing a quotation from the New York Journal of Commerce, stating that slave ships have, withi❑ the past year, been fitted out at the port of New York,' and adding, this we can prove to the satisfaction of the President.' lam instructed by the Presi dent to request. that you will call upon the publishers of the last mentioned newspaper for the proof which they have proffered, and that as soon as you shall have obtained the requisite evi dence you will institute proceedings for the punishment of the offenders. I am, sir, your obedient servant, " JOHN FORSYTH. " WM. M. Price, Esq., U.S. Att'y, New York." " New York, June 25, 1835. " Wm: M. Price, Esq.—Dear sir,—Your note of this morning shall receive early attention. Your obedient servants, . " HALE AND HALLOCK." " New York, July 6, 1835• " Sir,—When in our paper of the 18th instant we said we could prove to the satisfaction of the President or the Secre tary of War that slave vessels had been recently fitted out at this port, we did not mean either to affirm or deny that Ve could prove it to the satisfaction of a court of justice. Of the fact, however, there is not in our opinion, a :shadow of doubt- The following vessels, among others, we beiieve, have been so fitted out. LHere are mentioned the names of four vessels, one of therm the Evening Edition.] o some of the gentlemen who can give information in regard to one or other of these vessels are:— [Here are mentioned the names of four individuals.] " From these gentlemen can be obtained the names of addi tional witnesses if desired. Mr. , together with several other gentlemen whom he can name, was on board one of -the vessels a short time previous to her sailing. Captain -----, who has been a long time on the coast of Africa, has favoured us with a long interview, and we doubt not will communicate freely what he knows. Mr. G. communicated a number of facts voluntarily at this office. Mr. B has a case in his hand of a seaman who was shipped on board of the Evening Edition, and carried to the coast of Africa. Further particulars be will doubtless communicate to you, as he has to us. _ . Thus, sir, we have furnished, we trust, a sufficient clue to thd investigation of this disgraceful business, and if yen see proper to ferret it out, will further aid you, in any way in our power. At the sanie time we wish this communication to be considered confidential between you and ourselves. It is made in conse quence of your note, which it appears was prompted by the Pre sident of the United States. It does appear to its that if slave vessels are fitted out in this port, as we have no doubt a number have been, within the last twelve months, the honor of the city and nation requires that the practice should be discontinued . We have not the slightest desire to injure the lawful business, or the reputation, of the captains or owners of either of the above vessels, but solely to put a stop to an evil acknowledged to be such by almost the whole civilized world. " We have the honor to be, sir, very respectfully, " Your obedient servants, " HALE and H LLOCK." " Win. M. Price, Esq., U.S. District Attorney." In these papers we also observe, that a serious quarrel has broken out in New York between the expatriated Irish and the native Americans. It is as beautiful a quarrel as any fire-eater need desire. We are delighted with this feud amongst the transported ! We need not say that O'CONNELL is the cause of it, for we have al ready borrowed some articles on the subject. In our next we shall supply the latest effusion in the New York Courier. It is too long for to-day. It is evident enough that DANIEL is now hunting his last hare, with his last beagle, with desperate fury to wards a precipice, over which he at least, if not his prey, is sure to plunge, there to break his neck and LlE—the last the most unktriunate of his innumerable exploits in that way. But we must be short with him on the present occa sion. lie has written another letter—one addressed to the Whigs and reformers of Ireland, whom he styles "my lords and gentlemen !" Nuw this is the first time we ever heard that there are " whigs and reformers" in Ire land, except amongst the protestants, and these neither 'numerous or important, and who hate and execrate DA NIEL as cordially as does every honest man in either England or Ireland. The two or three millions of popish serfs whom O'CoN NELL has been accustomed to appeal to, cannot be called I D 1)1 Of 64 10 ar D sc RI p i W RI ill di ha to di
