A Marseilles correspondent furnishes the fol lowing by telegraph -- " Nena Sahib, after destroying his family, comritted suicide. " The Punjaub is tranquil, as well as the country, round Delhi and Meerut. At Bundel cund there were signs of disturbance. Little news from Gwalior. "From Patna we learn that a plot has been discovered, and that amongst the conspirators were the son of the well-known Meer Gundhya, and Moulvie Ally Kureem, who were arrested. " The Ghoorkas, who had been sent in aid by Jung Bahadoor, reached Lucknow on the 22nd July. "It was reported that Agra had Mien into the hands of the rebels. " Major Renaud had died of his wounds. "Lieut Crozier, of the 75th Regiment, was killed in action, on the 18th of July, before Delhi. " Lieut. Livers had died of cholera " Detachments of European troops had been sent to the southern part of Bombay. The panic which existed at Bombay a fortnight ago had subsided." The following telegraphic despatch has been received at the East India House. It clears up one or two' points left doubtful in the earlier de spatch, and in particular ascertains General Havelock's prospects of relieving Lucknow, but it makes no substantial addition to the intelli gence published yesterday : ALEXANDRIA, SEPTEMBER 8. General Havelock's forces, after re-occupying Cawnpore, finding Bithpoor evacuated, burnt it to the ground. On the 29th and 30th of July they found the rebels at Bupeer-el-Gunge, about eighteen miles from Cawnpore, 10,000 strong, whom they defeated with the loss of fifteen guns. They expected to reach Lucknow the next day. Nana Sahib perpetrated a fearful massacre at Cawnpore, in which nearly all the European inhabitants perished. The 7th, Bth, and 40th Regiments mutinied at Dinapore on the 2:ird of July, and threatened Benares. The 12th Irregular Cavalry mutinied at the same station, and murdered their com manding officer, Major Holmes, and his wife. Accounts from Delhi to the 29th July :—Three sorties had been repulsed on the 14th, 18th, and 23rd, with loss on our side of about 500 killed and wounded. The rains had set in heavy. Gene , ral Reid had relinquished the command of the forces on account of illness, and has been suc ceeded by Brigadier-General A. Wilson. Sir Colin Campbell has arrived at Calcutta, and assumed command of the Indian army. The Sealkote mutineers, on the route to Delhi, were totally destroyed at Gooroaspoor, by Brigadier Nicholson's force. , A mutiny has broken out in the 27h Bombay Native Infantry, at Kolapore, in the ',Southern Marhatta country. European troops have been sent out against the mutineers, and are said to have quelled the disturbances. Great alarm prevails in Belgautn, Dharwar, Rutnaghery, and Sattara ; and the ex-Ranee and a native rajah have been taken into custody, and brought prisoners to Bombay. A Mahomedan icon spiracy has been discovered in the Bombay Presidency, and the Moulire of Poonah and several accomplices hay.: been apprehended, and await their trial. Her Majesty's 33rd Regiment has arrived from the Mauritius, and now forms part of the Bombay garrison. Colonel Stuart's column has reached Mhow and Indore, and tranquility is restored in Central India. Holkar remains faithful, but his troops disorderly. Colonel Durand, the resident, had returned to his post. The disarmed 26th Bengal Native Infantry mutinied at Meau-Meer, on the 30th of July, and murdered their commanding officer, Major Spencer. Another telegraphic despatch from Alexan dria, via Constantinople, supplies the follow ing General Havelock left Colonel Neill a Cawnpore. Brigadier Nicholson's column and Van Cort andt's were marching on Delhi. " Central India was tranquil. " Exchange : Bombay-2s. lid. ; interest reduced 2 per cent. "No tidings of the Bentinck.

Document bills, 21 THE NORTHERN TIMES.--LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1857. 'ea;',ues were, however, again obliged to seat them selves at a lower table ; " and since that time," says the correspondent, " the relations between the Diplomatic Corps and the Tuscan Court have been extremely cool.' For some time the Austrian money-market has been in a very unsatisfactory state, but yesterday there was a terrible panic on 'Change. In the course of the day it became known that the Na tional Bank was resolved no longer to advance such large sums on " accommodation bills," and the consequence was, that those persons who had speculated beyond their means were in a violent hurry to turn their stock into hard cash As the sellere were out of prop ntion to the buyers, the prices of all kinds of stock fell with alarming ra pidity. Credit Bank shares, which a year ago were at 9G per cent. premium, wore yesterday only 3,1- per cent. above par. Northern Railroads shares, which six months ago were at 200 ; have fallen to 159, and some other kinds of industriel stock are not to be soli at any price. The National Bank will soon be obliged to resume its cash payments, and, in order that it may be able to do so, it is resolved to reduce its paper circulation to 330,000,000 of florins by the Ist of January, 1858. As the Bank rarely advances on bills more than one-third of the sum demanded, the persons requiring accommodation make a rule of demanding three times as much as they want, and of sending in the bills rejected three times in the course of the week. In order to put a stop to these abuses, the Bank has determined to discount bills but once a week, and, in future to advance more money to the commercial and less to the speculating world. An experienced financier, who cannot hut be well informed on the subject, tells me 4 that the Credit Bank will not be able to pay more than five per cent. to the shareholders this year, .13 , it, he, at the same time, expresses his eonviztion that a few years hence its shares will be in as great demand as they were eighteen months ag It has been remarked here that the national fes- tival at Weimar on the 4th instant bore a "regular Protestant stamp," but it is the fault of Austria if Catholic Germany was feebly represented. The Archbishop of Vienna, in his supplementary letter to the Concordat, declare that the more highly_ educated clsssea in Germany were " morally sick, and his organs in this city have not scrupled to at tribute a greet part of the indifference which pre vails in religious matters to the works of Goethe, Schiller, and Herder, three men to whose genius Northern Germany has just rendered homage. The Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar some weeks ago r<!.- guested Count Lariskoron±li, the lord chamberlain of this court, to permit M. Laroche, one of the most celebrated aetori in the imperial theatre, to be present at the festival at Weimar, as he was a pupil of Goethe's, and is the only living member of the famous company fo.fmed by the deceased Grand Duke Charles Augustus. Although the letter was addressed to the Austaian noble who is director of the two cour.; theatres, by the Lord Cham berlain of the Grand Duke, M. Laroche was not permitted to assist in the glorification of three men who, in the opinion of the Ultramontane party, have done infinitely more harm than good in the world. Ever since the publication of her Concordat, Austria has been losing ground in Germany, and there are persons who are inclined to fancy that she will never again recover her former position. In one of my more recent letters it was stated that the Austrians sincerely hope that the English may speedily succeed in quelling the military insurrectien in India, and a Vienna correspon dent of the Frankfort Post Zeitung thus expresses the opinions of his fellow-townstuen on the sub- jeet &where does the behaviour of the Sepoys excite greater abhoffence than in the political circles of Vienna, and no here 1 , it more sincerely wished that success may attend the Briti h arms than in this city. We firmly believe that the PoWer which was able to conquer India is also able to ma;ntain possession of it ; and we feel assured that they who fancy that England is on the brink of ruin are as muca mistaken as were those parsons who, in 1848 and 1849, prophecied that Austria would fall to pieces. The Augsburg Gazette learns from Batavia that a revolutionary spirit begins to manifest itself in the Dutch possessions in the East Indies. An expedition is about to be sent by the Dutch Government against the Itadschas. of Lidak and Takaip, who reside in the isle ad of Timor (one of the Moluccas). The correspoadent observes that the insurrectionary spirit seems to prevail in Eastern Asia from the 50th degree north latitude, to the 20th degree South latitude. It is necessary to inform you thtit the German correspondents take an extremely unfavourable view of the state of affairs in India, and they tardy fail to state that the whole truth does not fiad its way into the papers published in India. ITALY. A letter from Milan of the 18 h states that, on the preceding day, the Archduke Maximilian, gave a grand dinner in honour of the King of the Belgians, who bed arrived there the preceding day. A letter from Rome says : The Sovereign Pontiff, who, as the telegraph will have informed you, returned to this city on the 3th, was received with great pomp. Cardinals Patrizzi, Roberti and Antonelli, accompanied by all the Ministers, went to the villa of the late Count Filipponi, to receive his Holiness, it having been arranged that he should there quit his travelling carriage. Cardinal Antonelli, having been suffering for a fortnight from gout, had to make a great effort to be present. Tne Pope proceeded to Rme in what is called his town equipage, and had in the carriage with him Cardinals PArizzi and Roberti, Ca - dinal• Antonelli having proceeded direct to Rome to receive him at St. Petir's. On the arrival of the Pope at Ponte Molle, a deputation of the traders of Rome, who have constructed at that spot an amphitheatre, begged his Holiness to give his blessing to the people who were there assembled. The Pope accordingly ascended to a platform, where he was addressed by Count Savorelli, President of the Chamber of Commerce, and he gave his benediction to the people, who, in return, greeted him with acclamations. General de Goyon, the French Commander, attended by his staff, then paid his respects to the Pope, and when his Holiness resumed his pro gress the General rode at the side of his carriage to the Vatican, the staff forming a cortege instead of the guard. At the Porta del Popolo, a deputation of the municipality, headed by Senator Prince Orsini, presented their homage to the Pope. He then prozeede Iby the Corso and the Via Papale to St. Peters, where a Te Dewrn was chanted in the usual manner. All the cardinals and the diplomatic body were present. The Pope afterwards retired to his apartments in the Vatican. In the evening the entire city and the cupola of St. Peter's were bril liantly illuminated. and the illuminations were repeated the next evening. The municipality distributed bread and meat to the poor, and paid the small debts of insolvent prisoners. Prince Borghese gave gratuitous amusements to the the people, and distributed among them by lottery 5,000 f. The Savings' Bank gave marriage portions to a number of girls who, in their own names or in those of their parents had deposits in the bank. In a word, everything was done to make the reception as brilliant as those which have taken place in other towns. And now, if it be asked what is the view taken here of the jeurney which the Holy Father has just termi nated, it must be answered that it is considered to have produced imm. , nse advantages. All the reports the have been:spread abroad as to the disaffection of the provinces, and especially of Romagna, are held to be solemnly dis proved by the demonstrations made by the people in honour of the Pope. It has been definitely resolved that the withdrawal from circulation of the large pieces of five sous shall take place forthwith. This measure affords general satisfaction, and removes the last trace in the Treasury of the Revolution. Other measures, calculated to cause the equilibrum of the budget, are under dis cussion."

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. PARIS, MONDAY EVENING The partial improvement Wilier I noticed in the trade of Paris within the last month has now be come general, and almost all the manufacturers are fully employed. There are at present in Paris numerous purchasers for all descriptions of manu factures It is now perceived that the consumption, which was limited: during many years in conse quence of the war and of the dearness of provisions, had inclu3ed the shopkeepers to suffer their stock of goods to run low. That stock is unw exhausted, and it becomes necessary to renew it. Tne manufacturers, on their part, having pro duced but little, are unable to satisfy the de mand. Te give the trade of Paris its full elasticity there still wants, however, a greater facility in obtaining discounts. Unfor tunately, the capital which was withdrawn from commercial purposes to be employed in less legitimate speculations has not yet returned to its natural channel, and merchants are frequently forced to refuse good orders because a too long credit is required, which their limited capital does not enable them to grant. The trade in jewellery, gold, silver, - and bronze ornaments, which was long languishing, has now resumed its ancient activity. The manufacturers have received many foreign orders ; but as they pride themselves on the superior quality of their workmanship, their prices are h'gh, and many purchasers who prefer an inferior article seek to supply themselves in a cheaper market. The proprietors of fancy shops in Paris have made large purchases of stuffs for ladies dresses and shawls. There has been cense ,. queetly a brisk movement among the manufacturers of Lyons and Roubaix. The fall in the price of corn made further pro gress last week. The h elders of flour were forced to lower their pretensions in consequence of the accounts from the provinces, which announce a general declining movement in the corninarkets. The supply of grain is everywhere increasing. The pri& of flour was maintained during the last month by the small stock on hand and that want of water, which prevented the millers from grinding. The late heavy rains have supplied the want, and flour is now everywhere abundant. At the Paris floor market on Friday there were more sellers than buyers, and the millers consented to reduce the price /f. the sack of 157 kilogrammes of the best quality, and 3f. for inferior qua lity. The flour factors announced the following sales seeks for delivery, at from 57f. to 65f. the sack ; 12,680 sacks for delivery at the end of the month, at prices varying from 56f to 61f. 50e. the sack. The reserve in the Paris market stores has risen to 17,224 quintals. There was but little business transacted at the last Paris corn market. Purchasers demanded a further reduction or from 1f 50c to 2f the hectolitre, Good wheat from Lorraine was offered at 33f the sack of 120 kilo grammes, which is equal to 22f the hectolitre. Rye maintains its price, but oats were offered at a re duction of 11 the hectolitre. The last rain was favourable to the oats still uncut. Wheat fell last week in almost all the provincial markets if the hectolitre. The price was well maintained at Marseilles in consequence of large shipments for England. The late rains have done immense s'r vice to the grapes, which are advancing rapidly to maturity. It is many years since the grapes were of such good quality as at present. The vintage commenced on Thursday last at Beaugency, and will become general before the end of the month Last year it did not commence before the 10th of October, makings difference of a month. Unfor tunately, the disease has reappeared in many places, particularly in Languedoc 'and the Botdelais, which will considerably reduce the crop in these locali ties. In the meantime, the price of wine keeps up, and many proprietors have announced that they will carefully preserve the wine of - this year, which recalls to mind the wines of the year 1811. Paris was never so abundantly supplied with grapes as at present, Besides the Chaeselas of Fontainbleau, there are large quantities of black and white grapes received from the south. The bunches of grapes carefully picked, are packed in white deal boxes, which contain 21bs. each. This branch of corn merce has become of great importance since the establishment of railways, and is of immense advantage to the inhabitants of Paris. A letter from Limoges states that the chestnut trees in the Limousin are breaking down under the weight of the fruit. Never in the memory of man was there seen so large a crop of chestnuts as this year ; They will be as remarkable for quality as for size, in consequence of the favourable weather. A violent fire broke out at seven this morning in the offices of the Moniteur, Quai-Voltaire, No. 13. It first appeared in the compositors' room shortly after the paper had been published and distributed. Notwithstanding that all the persons employed in the newspaper offiee were still there, and every assistance was given, the fire spread with such rapidity that the entire building was shortly enveloped in flames. At half-past eight the fire was extinguished, after much damage was caused. The printing presses were saved. The Itidepehdance Beige was again seized in Paris to-day. The appointment of Monsignor Landriot, Bishop of La Rochelle, to the rank of Senator, is regarded as certain. The celebrated painter Wintherhalter has been commissioned to execute the portrait of the Em peror Alexander 11., which is to be placed in the Museum of Versailles. It is said that the institution of the Waterloo medal in England has suggested to the Emperor the idea of striking medals commemorative of the battles of Marengo, Austerlitz, Jena, and Wagram, and of conferring them on the survivors of the old army who were present at those battles. It is whispered that the German potentates have forbidden any of their subjects to accept the medal of St. Helena. It is announced that at the end of this month preparations will be made for the fetes which are to take place at the Hotel de Ville iu the month of October next. A letter from Rome, of the 10th instant, informs us that, in censequence of an address presented to the Roman Municipal Council, in which the departure of the foreign troops was demanded iu terms insulting to the French, a great number of Roman citizens of distinction had waited upon General G.yon, the commander of the French troops, to protest against that document, and to profess their profound esteem for the Emperor of ,he French, and his brave army. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, SEPT. 12 A. few days since a Brussels paper informed its readers that the King of Naples had requested Austria to mediate between himself and the Courts of London and Paris, but the statement is incor rect. Some months since Prussia endeavoured to bring about a reconciliation between tke Western Powers and Naples, but her mediation failed because the Earl of Clarendon and Count Welewski declared that their diplomatic relations with the Neapolitan Government would not be renewed until the de mands made on it by the English and French Cabi nets were acceded to. According to a private letter from Florence, the Marquis of Normanby and the Tuscan Minister far Foreign Affairs had a dispute on a question of etiquette while the Pope was in the Tuscan capital. The British Minister and his colleagues received an invitation to dine at the Pitti Palace, but to their extreme displeasure they were not placed at the same table with the Grand Duke and the Sovereign Pontiff. A complaint was made in due form to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, but that functionary threw the blame on the shoulders of the grand steward. A day or two after the diplomatists had been obliged to eat " humble pie," they received another invitatio.n to dine at Court, and accepted it, in the expectation that reparation ' for the alight which had been put upon them was about to be made. Tha noble Lord and his eel- LATER FRO NI AMERICA, ARRIVAL OF THE CITY OF WASHINGTON. The screw steam-ship City of Washington. Cap tain Petrie, which sailed from New York at 2 p.m., ou the 3rd instan`, has arrived. She reports the arrival of the steam ship Vanderbelt from South ampton, and the Asia from Liverpool, at New York, both on the 23d instant: _ . The news •is one day later. From Washington we learn that Professor Seliman aiad forty-two other electors of the state of Conne.oticut had presented a memorial to President Buchanan in reprehension of his course in Kansas affairs. The President had sent a long reply, in the course of which he justifies his conduct, and argues u'ith much keenness •to disprove the statements of the memorialists. The Black Republicans of Chicago had attempted to get up another excitement by the report that a man was carrying a fugitive slave into slavery, and hal him secreted in a house in that city. A large mob collected and demanded the negro, threatening to tear down the house if - he was not given up to them. But the fugitive turned out to be a free coloured boy whom his guardian was bringing from Pennsylvania After chasing the man and boy about the city, and endangering their lives with stones and missiles, and exhibiting other phas,ls of Republic anism, the mob at length became pacified, and. quiet was restored., The following is the latest news received at New York from Washington— The Attorney-General has decided adversely to the extraordinary claims of Haywood, the late Marshal of Utah,more than 20,000 dole of which were for conveying the Judges of the territory to and from the places of haling the courts. The ex penses for numerous gustrds, horses, waggons, and provisions were not those of the ministerial officers. The Attorney-General states that the expenses of a judge on his way to the court are his own. The net amount in the treisury, subject to draft, is 19,500,000 dols—of which - there are in New York nearly nine and one third millions; at Philadelphia, two millions and two thirds; and at New Orleans, over a million and a half.

The proceedings on th'.3 writ of habeas corpus is sued by Judge Peabody, to show why Mrs. Cun ningham should not be admitted to bail, were resumed on the tad, in the Supreme Court. The Judge denied the motion of the District Attorney to dismiss the writ, and listened to the arguments of c)unsel relative to the question of bail, but adjourned the further hearing of the case till the 3rd inst, The New York Ilerald,fof the 3rd inst., contains the following _ _ _ The panic in Wall-street has comple'ely subsided. There was no evidence yesterday of excitement in the street. No new failures occurred, and things began to assume their accustomed aspect. No better evidence of the cmfidence shared by the masses of the people could be found, than the fact, that the deposits in the savings' banks inereaed - The defaulting teller of the Mechanics' Barking Association, Mr. Van Blarcom, has been dis charged, no charge being brought against him except that of breach of trust ; which is not an indictable offence. He has shown that the m:•ney was loaned to easterners of the bank, whose notes he holds as security, and that none of it was applied to his own use. In the Supreme Court, an injunction was issued against the bank. The affzirs of the concern will be woand up as soon as receivers are appointed. It is reported that the bank is abundantly able to meet all its liabilities, and will psy claimants as soon as possible. The banking house of Hatch and Lan don, at Cincinnati, failed yesterday. The war department at Washington had sent out °Niers to the following troops to put themselves in readiness to proceed to Kansas:—Ten companies of the let Cavalry, under command of Colonel Sumner and Lieutenant Colonel Johnston ; seven companies of the 6th Infantry, under the same command ; ten companies of the 4th Artillery, from Florida ; two companies of the 21 Artillery. from Fort I`.lunrce ; two companies of the 21 Artillery, from Fort Snelling ; one Ligt Battery company from Fort McHenry; which, if the average strength of the companies be sixty,will give a force of upwards of two thousand m'n. Garieral Harney will remain in command of Kansas. Col. Albert S. Johnston, late from Texas, has been assigned to the command of troops to Utah. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Nrim YORK, Sept. 3. We learn of no further mercantile failures. The settlements between the Banks at the Clearing house passed off without trouble. As remarked this evening, the panic element in the community, among bill lenders and depositors, is ext•eedingly small. The conviction is almost universal that a trustful spirit is abroad, out side the vortex of the Street, in the financial as well as the great material resources of the country. There has been a favourable tarn in monetary affairs, decidedly so in regard to the panic feeling which obtained yesterday. The banks that held their discount sessions this morning, with few exceptions, did the liberal by their mercantile dealers, and ou'side there is better sale for prime paper at 12 to 15 per cent. The private banking houses and money brokers are still indisposed to do much, waiting, with their balances in bank, for the settling down of the excitement. A breeze was attempted about noon in regard to country bank notes, the report being spread that the Metropolitan and American Exchaege redemptions had been cut off. This was soon dtscovered to be untrue. The redemptions go on as usual, except that the original rule established by these Bauks to take country money on deposit to-day, to be drawn for to morrow, has been more rigidly enforced. The practice had grown up of discounting the one day's delay, and of thin advantage was being taken in the present stringency by some of the Bark -Note Brokers to send in large packages, bought at various rates in the street, to be checked against at once. The policy of changing the practice and enforcing the rule at this present particular time may be questioned, but it affords no,apology for the idle and mischevieus rumour that country money is thrown out. CarTori.--The'rearket ;is 'steady, rand we hear of sales of 800 bales. We quote 15io for middling uplands, ditto Orleans 16e. The Vanderbilt reports a firmer Liverpool market . BREADSTUFP3--The market for State and Western fbur has again receded.. Wheat is also lower and dull of sale. The sama remark applies to Indian cora.

In Beef the transactions are moderate, but prices are firm and steady at 17 dols to 18 for repacked Western, and 18 dols 50 ,to 19 for extra do. Nothing doing in beet' hams, and prices are nominal at 23 dols 50 to N. Lard is easier and quite dull at 151 to 151 for common to prime-170 brls and tierces sold.

THE; DEceausx or GROU3E, —The gradnal decrease o muirfowl on our S3ottish hills is every year becoming more (evident, and like its brother, the woodgrouse, it will before long become extinct, untess measures be taken to pre gerve the species. The grouse, a native of, and peculiar tc, the British isles, receding before the progress of agri cultural improvement, are now only to be found in any thing like their former numbers in remote districts, where access and accommodation for sportsmen are restricted or wanting. The sportsman, without assigning any limit to his work of destruction, commences operations on the 12th, anal generally kills most of the young birds, and leaves the aid ones to die in the approach of winter, g enerally from a disease of the liver. Large quantities of old birds are found dead on our southern hills (we refer to Selkirk and Peeblesshire) in the months of October and November. Many of these, doubtless, have been wounded birds, and consequently have died of starvation; but we have fre quently made an examination of some of these found dead, and an enlargement of the liver was almost invariably the cause. Agricultural improvements, such as the draining of bill land for pasture, and the burning of heather, are all hastening the already rapid decrease of muirfowl. If sportsmen would give this species of game a rest once in every four seasons, and thus allow more young birds to breed, we doubt not but that the species would become as numerous as they were ten or Pith() years ago.—Editi.. burgh Courant. PRESENTATION TO THE REV. DR. BUTLER. Last evening, a 'meeting was got up at the Concert Hall, Lord Netsonattreet, for the purpose of hearing a lecture by the Roy. Dr. Rifler, 14te priest of the Roman Catholic Church, of Saint Anthony's, and formerly chamberlain to Pope Gregory XVI ; and also for the purpose of presenting that individual with an address, a copy of the Bible, and a, puree of money. For admission, money was taken at'the door; therefore, that may account for the hmiled attendance on the platform and the gallery, there :being but few persons—but the body of the hall was better filled'. The Rev. G. Reed, of St. Paul's, in this town, took the chair. On the platform we obiervel the Rev. W. a Mathias, the Rev. C. P. M'Cartby, the Rev. D. J. Hirech; Rev. Defy, the Rev: Hunt, Rev. Jenour, and Messrs. T. U. Satchell, H. Badiey, G. Donaldson, 3. Cullen, T. J. Oueelay, Thos Lowe, R, Cook, and several famalelt. The meeting was oponed by singing a hymn, and prayer, interspersed, as some co.espicu ous per•on appeared on the platform, by rounds of Kentish fire which was given most enthasias•ically-. The chairman then in a few preparatory retnsrks, in the course of which, he allraled to a letter he hid received, aemsing'them of bigotry and intolerance, introduced the lecturer; on h 4 coming forward, the Kentish fires were sgiin and again ret e Ted. The Rev. Dr. BUTLER then proceeded to deliver hit lecture, which principally cunsisted of a history of his connection with the Church of Rome. and why he renounced its errors ; being, as it was entitled, " The Protestant's reply to the Popish Priest's defence of his creed . '" The lee ore occupied upwards of an hour in the delivery. The CHAIRMLN then requosted :Or. Butler to acelpt of the testimonial and the address, which he saki had' been commenced in the Protestant ,Association connected with St. Paul's, the only association then alive, and some other friends in Liverpool and elsevhere. It was pre sented to him as an set; of g-atitude fir the ener4y ho had' dibpla3 ()din exphsin-r popery. Ho then real the tiou iu the Bible, and the following ADDRESS : To tht R'. noinas Butler, D. D, Permit us whose names are herewith subscribed, awl other friendv, to beg: your acceptance of - this Bible and purse as tekens of our admiration of the courage and faith fulness which you have shown in the defence of the truth as it is in Jesue, from the moment of your departure from the communion of the Apostolic Chursh of Rome till now. Rev. sir, we Mast not feirget that, like all those who are privileged to renounce that persecuting system, you have been often called upon to sutler in defence c.f our Lord and `Master ; bat at alt times it must have been no small con solation to you to remetdoer that you had the test moray of a good conscience, and that by your patient endea vours for Christ's sake you have gained for yourself the esteem and sympathy of very , many who hold the faith once delivered—that under the influence of the Holy Spirit, you may be enabled to penevere in your apostolt denunciations of the awful and soul-destroy ing error of Popery in your defence of Eaamanuell-cause; and within, you, et the same time, an increase of spiritual, and, so far as may be consistent, of temporal bletsiogs. Then follo.ved the names of the contributors to - the amount in the purse—XB4 17s. 81 The CHAIRK IN then, in suitable terms, presented the testimonials, amidst more " Kentish fife," which was duly received, and acknowledged in suitable terms, in the course of which he stated that ha b:141, after !saving the Church of Rome, been in great pommies - 7 difficulties, having to sell b)oks from door to door, in London, until he was aimitted iuto the ministry. He returned his sincere thanks. The Rev. Mr. M'CanTrtY then addressed the meeting, after waich a vote of thank 3 tva , 4 passed to the caairman,,, and the lecturer, and the meeting separated.. THE EVANGELICAL CGNFERENCE AT BERLIN.' BERLIN, Sem • 12. Last Wednesday evening the evangelical Conferences, or the meetings of Protestants from all comities, were opened in this city in the Garnison Ktrche, a building capable of accommodati❑g 4.000 persons, well lit up for this occasion, and provided with an ample carpetted plat form, easy of acccess to the membe-s. Tae number of persons who have inscribed themselves as members eV these Conferences —that is to say, who either take active part, or sympathise, or in any way co-operate towards the object in view—amounts to 1,400. This is exclusive of all those who have flocked hither merely to figure as auJiences. The arrangements-that have been made as yet furnished me with no matter for unfavourable comment ; the office opened for the members of the Conferences in the bureaux of the House of • Deputies supplies every information ; as to hutel or lodging accommodation, the latter is in many cases furnished gratuitously, and nothing is left undone to facilitate the whole affair to strangers The tickets of admission for members are so ingeniously cmtrived as to contain on the various sides of a folded map the town of Be lin all the necessary information ti to the subject-matter of every day's Conference, the names of the speakers, preachers, and religious institutions of the city, and an indica•.ion where the members can best meet for refreshment and mutual intercourse. The long and heavily-laden railway trains during she early days of this week proclaim d how nume rous the intended , visitors were ; the German that one hears talked in the streets near the Garnison Kirche, each, word planted slowly and painfully, like ill-fitted stones in a coarse mosaic, tells how large a proportion of theta consists of foreigners, while our o wn countrymen shine out, as usual, in that wonderful lingual production they call French, for which we seem to have an exclusive right of infliction, but which right is most liberally and success- . folly infringed on, like most of our patents, by our Trans atlantic cousins, • The first meeting on Wednesday evenirg,was opened by the Dora Chor singing the 100th Psalm i and as this and all the other psalmody introduced into the meeting is printed with the music and an English and Fronds_ translation of the text, it can be easily conceived what an. effect this appropriate choin • produced. Th.. exercises of the evening consisted solely of reading, potions of Holy Scripture, and offering _prayer in Ger man, French, and English. Of the °loan'nt and fervent prayer put up by Pastor Kuntzel, from Eberfeld, our countrymen who could follow him summed up their fall admira ion. by the exclamation, " He prays like Spurgeon!' Like those of M. Fisch, from Paris, and of the Rein Baptist Noel, who followed, etch reading a chapter from the Bible in his own tongue, these prayers implored God's blessing on the object of the meetings—viz , the spread of brotherly love among all Protestants, the invi goration of the churches of the Protestant faith, and the extension of its truth over the whole world, together with a. blessing on the King and his family, and on ties people and capital of Prussia. The lion. teed Rev. Baptist Noel also included in, his prayer our suffering fellow-countrymen in India, and certaisly no There else out of-Great Britain and her dependencies can this prayer find such warm sympathy for the sufferers, or such deep execrations of the heathen, miscreants that have ect barbarously maltreated women and children and unarmed prisoners.. After further singing and a cloeine blessing, the meeting separated, deeply impressed with this opening act. Exclasively for CLOTH IN BOYS from Six,iq. Twenty Years— & COMPAIST, Itanelitgli-street.

Baron Watsua was the pruiding judge. at the trial of Rogers ; and a cotrespemtent assures et that tte minister of the law and the prisoner at the- bar spent many of their early days in the same neighbour hood, within two mil,s of each other ; and he believes, were not uofrequently in one another's company. If this be so it may possibly account for the emotion, which the reporter described as " surpri.e; man if este d by the . Baron when the people in court gnve vent to their satis faction with the verdict of " Guilty," by a burst of applause.—Northern Daily Erp,ress.--[ti iwiensel Wurritnowslt.—On the night of the tat inst. a party of men called at the house of Martin Conway, at Burgessbeg, in the absence of the owner, and demanded admittance, which was stoutly denied them by Conway's wife. They then commencad battering" the door with stones, at the same time using the most obscene a and threatening language towards Mrs. Conway. The door, however, being strong, and well secured from the inside , resisted all their efforts tra break it in ; and they were compelled to desist without effecting their purpose, whatever that might. have been. The persons suspected of this outrage are the worst T- he in the neighbourhood. Conway and his wife Ihave refused to lodge informations in the ease.-IYeraget Guard man.
