Amongst the Avon's passengers are Dr. Kalley and lady, whose house was attacked and ransacked at Madeira, in consequence of their attempts to spread the knowledge of Protestantism : and Sir Robert Schomberg, from Bar badoes, after a railway visit to that island. This packet brings on freight 161 bales of sarsaparilla, 68 of tobacco, 62 tierces of coffee, 2200 dollars, and a small quantity of gold and silver. The Ocean Queen, Welch, was wrecked on the Grand Caimans on the 28th of July, where the Rapid, Thomas, was wrecked on the 20th of June. We learn by this arrival that the crops are generally good, the weather fine, with a great deal of rain ; and several slight shocks of earthquakes had been felt at some of the islands. Sickness was commencing at Ja maica when the Avon left. She had a fine passage home, except strong easterly winds from Jamaica to St. Thomas, and as far north as latitude 31 degrees, thence to Fayal moderate south west winds. The emancipation anniversary celebrations seem to have passed off with unusual dullness. We have our usual files of West India papers, but, with the exception of congratulations on the improved state of the weather and prospects of the crops, they contain no news of importance. We gather from the Jamaica Despatch that for many years the island had not been visited with so long and uninterrupted a series of favour able weather as had been experienced since the latter end of June, and never had the growth of cane been so re markable. The indications of a continuance of this sea sonable weather was still apparent; indeed, in some parts of the island the fall of rain still continued, and the next year's crop was expected to be proportionably great.

SEVERE FIGHT BETWEEN THE TURKS AND KURDES. • CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 4, 1846. The intelligence from Kurdistan is not very recent in date, but important in point of fact. An expedition had been organised and put in execution by Nejib Pacha, governor of Bagdad, in conjunction with the governor of Moussoul, reinforced is they were by the troops of Arabia, for the suppression of disturbances from the Kurdes, in the province of Moussoul and tlat neighbourhood. The Kurdes, under the command of Ravenduz Pacha, occu pied a formidable position at Akben'd, situated about 90 miles from Moussoul. On the approach of the Turkish vanguard the Kurdes made a sally, and a severe skirmish ensued, in which the Turks were repelled with great loss ; subsequently on the arrival of the main body of the army, the Kurdes with signals of truce intimated their desire to surrender. This induced the general in chief, Nejib Pacha, to depute sevetal officers with his conditions to the Kurdes, who seized them in defiance of their flag of truce, and cruelly put them to death; they even cut off the ears and tails of the horses, and in this state restored them to the Turkish camp. This event so enraged Nejib Pacha that he was on the point of determining on granting no quarter to the Kurdes. However they finally surrendered and were humanely per mitted to depart with their wives and children on their delivering into the hands of the Turks the perpetrators of the cruel act on the unfortunate officers. The place was pillaged and subsequently occupied by the troops of Nejib Pacha, who, during the whole exhibition, is said to have acted in the most honourable manner. Late reports state that the Kurdes, made over to the Governor of Bagdad, had made their escape. Essad Pacha, governor of Erzeroom, whose late pro ceedings bad given great dissatisfaction to the British embassy, and others, has finally been removed from his post, and named governor of Sivas, on the representation of the Hon. Mr. Wellesley, during the late persecutions of the Protestant Armenians at Erzeroom. On dit that be was the chief instigator and abettor, and that he encouraged and excited the Armenians towards the course they subsequently took in regard to their converted countrymen. It is a well-known fact that there is not a quieter or more respected community in the empire ; but once allowed to follow their course, the Armenians become intractible and furious. The military Badri Pacha is appointed governor of Erzeroom. By this nomination, and by the previous pre parations made by the government in that quarter, one can easily perceive the design and intention of the Porte, in taking strong measures of attacking the Kurdes in their own fastnesses. The Kurdes are a nation of war. riors, who have for centuries been entertaining a wild species of independence, setting all laws and institutions at defiance. During the late campaign they were nomi n• Ily conquered and subdued by the renowned Mehemet Resehid Pacha, who levied a tribute on them, which, however, was always imperfectly paid, or not paid at all. At present their chief commander is Bedr Khan Bey, who, some say, can bring into the field 30,000 to 40,000 horsemen. Although this may be an exaggeration, his power must he very great, assisted by and united with other Kurdish chiefs, who can equally command considerable force. At any rate, the Porte is ill find great difficulty be fore it ca❑ succeed in bringing these nomade tribes into subjection. RUMOURED DEFEAT OF THE RUSSIANS,—The Augs burgh Gazette, on the faith of its Constantinople corres pondent for September, states that a rumour prevailed at Trebisonde, that a relative of SCIIAMYL had defeated the Russians. Adrianople was ravaged by fire in the night of the 24th. The conflagration broke out in the populous quarter of the Israelites, and lasted 12 hours, reducing to ashes about 600 houses, a considerable number of shops, 30 taverns, several mills, and 5 synagogues. SPAIN.—A despatch from Paris, received on Saturday, announces that the Count de Montemolin, eldest son of Don Carlos, has escaped from Bourges. General Cabrera has clandestinely left Patis, and arrived at Rouen on Sunday evening, the 13th. In the night he left that city in a carriage, accompanied by a friend, and took a route towards the'sea, where be, no doubt, bad a boat waiting to take him to England for Spain. The Count de Mon temolin has issued a proclamation, dated Bourges, 12th September, calling on the Spaniards in energetic lan guage " to forget the past, and concord must be established among all Spaniards ; let the epithets of parties cease ; let hatreds and remembrances of injury he buried in forget fulness. Institutions conformable to the spirit of the time we live in, the holy religion of our forefathers, the free administration of justice, respect for the rights of property, and a cordial amalgamation of parties, lo ! these ate the principles which guarantee the possession of that happiness which you so fervently desire. I will adhere to what I promise and what I offer, and in the moment of success nothing will be more sweet, nothing will give me greater satisfaction, than to see around me neither victors nor vanquished. I thank you for all you have suffered, for your constancy and for your prudence. The admirer of your courage and your exploits, I shall know how to recompense them on the field of battle." ROMANTIC STORY.—The following romantic story ap pears in the Augburg Gazette :—" The Countess de --, one of the most attractive &nines of Berlin, and who is now in the prime of her beauty, is noted for her adhesion to the ultra-liberal principles of female emancipation. Having contracted, when very young, a marriag de con venance with a man for whom she did not feel any attachment, she decided on making up for the sacrifice, by indulging in intrigues with those more to her taste. The count, her husband, on the other hand, carried on a secret and guilty connection with the Marquise de M--. which becoming at length known to his wife, she resolved to watch him narrowly, in order to procure proofs which might enable her to obtain a divorce.. For this purpose she summoned to her aid two of her admirers. These gentlemen, one of whom is connected with one of the tribunals at Berlin, engaged to get possession of the letters written by the Count to Madame de M—. Knowing that she had just set off for Paris they followed her and reached an hotel at Cologne, where she had just alighted. While she was at dinner they contrived to get hold of her luggage, and observing a small box which they im agined must contain the wished-for billets dour, they carried it off. Madame de M-- soon becoming aware of her loss, made inquiries, and discovered the gentlemen at the station of the railway from Cologne to Bonn, just as the train was about to start. She got into it, The two gentlemen bad in the meantime opened the box, and to their horror found that, instead of containing the coveted billets doux, it contained nothing but a parcel of matter of fact billets de banque, and that, instead of having executed the mission of their inamorata, they had placed themselves in the position of common robbers. Alarmed at the consequences of their act, they endeavoured, on arriving at Bruhl, to make their escape, but the vigilant marquise prevented it, and had them taken into custody by the police, under whose guardianship they still remain to await the result of their further investigation. USEFUL.-At this time of year, says a correspondent, when from atmospheric influences animal food is likely to become tainted, it cannot be too generally known that a bit of charred stick boiled with beef or mutton thus affected will take away all taint or disagreable taste.. A JUST REBUKE.:—WC look in vain for any exposure of the monstrous fallacies of Mr. Fiume and Mr. Bernal Osborne. They are answered, indeed ;—but bow? Coldly and apologetically; as if their antagonists only invited attack; as if they were cmscious that there was a prima facie case against them ; as if they were half ashamed of the cause which they were commissioned to defend ; only anxious to make a plausible show of resist ance to hostility, which they felt must, in the end, be successful. "Non tali auxilio ; nec defensoribus istis, Tempos eget." _ . If our Church is unworthy to stand, let it fall. If its friends can make out no case in its defence, which would put to shame the conceited and insolent jackanapes, and the malevolent accuser, let it meet its merited condemna tion. If it be, indeed, " a gorgeous nuisance," or " a bloated ineumbrance ;" if its prelates be " lazy sineeurists," and the clergy a " harpy priesthood," we call at once upon those who have hitherto championed its cause, to take their place in the ranks of its enemies. But if the contrary of all this be true ; if its clergy be over-worked while they are under paid ; if they are as remarkable for their zeal in works of piety, as for their forgetfulness of religious dis tinctions in works of charity; how happens it that they are suffered to be borne down by calumnies, which have no foundation but in the most rancorous virulence, and made the victim s of misrepresentations. which never would have been hazarded where a prompt and indignant ex posure might be apprehended ? Is it not "because th e y have no one to stand up for them ?"—Dublin University. DANCING AND DEPORTMENT. AIR. H.

Nothing that is broken bears any value except the heart, which becomes the more valuable the more it is broken. The Church of St. Peter, at Rome, is said to have cost twelve millions sterling.

LITERALLY SPEAKING.—A person speaking to a very deaf man, and getting angry at his not catching his mean ing, said, Why, it is as plain as A B C." "That may be, Sir," replied the poor man, "but I am D E F." • A deaf and dumb child was asked if she knew why she was born thus ? The tears rapidly filled the eyes of the afflicted child ; but, in a moment or two, she dashed them away, and with a sweet smile playing upon her thoughtful countenance, wrote upon her little slate—" Even so, Father ; for so it seemed good in thy sight." CON S UMPTION.—M. Becker observed at Moscow that two workmen in an advanced stage of pulmonary con sumption were cured after a few months' employment in certain chemical works. During this time they had been almost constantly exposed to the influence of vapours charged with marine salt and sal ammoniac.

A " CH ARACTERISTIC" NOTE.—The president of the Institution, John Paley, junr., Esq., presented, on Tues day last, to the museum of that society, an autograph letter of his Grace the Duke of Wellington. The advice contained in the characteristic and piquant epistle, is so excellent, and so generally applicable, that we present our readers with a copy of it :—" London, Feb. 13, 1843. F.

A TOAST OF THE TALLEST KIND.—At the late cele bration of the 4th of July, in the parish of Caddo, the following toast was given. It may be called the romance of the confectionary shop :—" Woman—Heaven's best gift to man —his pandora, or casket of jewels—his con fectionary shop, or stick of rock candy—his otto of roses, or sugar-coated pill—her presence the best company—her voice his sweetest music—her smiles his brightest mo ments—her kiss the guardian of his innocence—her arm the pale of his safety—her lips his most faithful counsellors —her bosom the softest pillow of his cares."

And the last reason was, that there was a blessing annexed to it, " I will bless him that blesseth thee." A blessing which remained unfaded, unwithered, with all its luxuriance, and with as fresh a fragrance as when it fell from the lips of God, thousands of years ago. But what was the great difficulty in the way of the Jews embracing Christianity ? The main feature of Christianity was love; but had love been exhibited by Christians to the Jews ? He would not I take them back to the middle ages, or to those days when the Jews were persecuted in every country ; but with all the sympathy expressed in modern times, and he admitted there was a great change of tone in Christian counties towards the Jews, at least in those countries in which the pure religion of the gospel was known—there was still a wonderful amount of persecution and hostility to be endured by them. The rev. gentleman then described the sufferings of the Jews in Smyrna, in Turkey, and in Greece, to show that where pure religion had not showed its light, where the gospel had not taken hold of the human mind, there was still a most inveterate and brutal hatred of the Jews. He then alluded to the great changes now taking place in the Jewish body; the repudiation of the oral law and the Rabbinical traditions by a large portion of them, who have returned to Moses and the prophets, and the great hopes that were entertained that they would be led onwards to that Messiah whom Moses, and the law, and the prophets spoke.

Nolan was prevented from preaching at his church in the evening, through severe in disposition, which also prevented him from attending the public meeting at the Collegiate. The sermon and collec tion at St. Barnabas's was, in consequence, postponed until next Sunday. Yesterday morning, at eleven p'clock, a public meet ing was held in the lecture-hall at the Collegiate Institu tion, the Rev. W. Rawson in the chair. The attendance was extremely thin, a circumstance probably occasioned by the omission of its announcement in the placards. Among the clergymen and gentlemen present were the Rev. A.

In these schools one hundred children were acccmtnodated ; and instead of being taught from their infancy to blas pheme the name of Jesus, as all infant Jews•are instructed by their parents, they were taught to sing hosannas to the Son of David. Their reverend diocesan had examined the children, and expressed great pleasure in witnessing their proficiency ; and to show how much the Jews sought after the privilege of having their children educated in the in stitution, he had heard of one child just being admitted who had been three years on the books waiting for a va cancy.

EARLY CLOSING OF THE MARKETS TO THE EDITOR OF LIVERPOOL STANI Sin,—Adverse as I have ever been from coming before the public, still I cannot refrain from expressing my senti ments respecting the premature closing of our markets. Having been located here during the last seventeen years, opposite St. James's market, I am able to speak to the working of the new arrangement; my experience of sucla compels me to say that I entirely disapprove of an, curtailment of the market hours—not that the loss is so serious to the shops in the vicinity, as was an. ticipated, but to the butchers and hucksters, 1 fee' persuaded, the alteration has proved most ruinous—the one hour inquisitorially lopped off from their regular time, having taken their customers by surprise —has resulted in great loss; nothing less than a uniform time of closing for both shops and markets will answer.
