THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Seven o'clock. [We were kindly favoured by Mr. Aylward, at a very early hour, with a copy of the Sun of last night.] LATEST FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE, THE CAFFRE WAR Parliament-street was crowded with persons yesterday afternoon, and the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel were both greeted with the most enthusiAstie cheer- ing on their respective arrival at the Houses of Parliament LAST mcnrs PARLIAMENT. (From the New York Courier and Enquirer. ) We are indebted to Captain 'Waterman, of the Ship Natchez, who strived yesterday, for Cape Town papers to the 30th April. We learn from them that hostilities have actually com menced between the authorities and the natives, upon the frontier. On the 15:h of April a division of troops marched towards Brown's-hill, where there is a missiona ry station or village, situated in front of the gorges of the Atnatola Mountains, into the ravines of which it was un derstood the Caffres had withdrawn. Here the troops encamped far the night. In the morning the troops entered the gorges, and en countered the enemy, which at times showed a force of 2,000 men, all armed with muskets. The Caffres were repulsed wherever they could be met, and the troops took 1,800 head of cattle and encamped. In the afternoon they were attacked by bodies of the Caffres. and during the night were surrounded on all sides. Major Gibson, the Commander, sent for a reinforcement to Colonel Somerset, who proceeded with 200 infantry, one gun, and some riflemen, to his support. Major Gibson early the next day, without awaiting the reinforcement, moved upon the river, with only an ad vance and rear-guard, leaving the waggons, &c., between, unprotected. They were immediately attacked, and the line cut in two by the Caffres, who then attacked the rear guard upon all sides, compelling Major Gibson to re treat to Burn's-hill. The advanced guard crossed the river, and both divisions were then united and being joined by Colonel Somerset, encamped on the bank of the Chumie. HOUSE OF COMMONS The house never presented such a thronged appearance. At twenty minutes past three Sir Robert Feel entered the house with an anxious air, and proceeded to deliver his statement. After stating that in consequence of the house having refused to give to the government those powers which were deemed necessary for the protection of life in Ireland, her Majesty's servants had come to a unanimous resolution, and adopted without hesitation, to tender their resignation, he acknowledged with gratitude the many occasions on which the house bad rendered their cordial support, and he would say nothing which could by possibility provoke any controversy. Her Majesty had been pleased to accept the resignation, and he assured the house that he did not propose his late commercial mea sures without foreseeing the great probability, whether those measures succeeded or not, of the dissolution of the government. The right hon. gentleman then made the following statement :—" Sir, I rather rejoice that her Ma jesty's Government has been relieved from any doubt, by the early decision of this house, as to the course which it was their duty to pursue, for I do not hesitate to say that I would not, even if the late vote had been in our favour —I would not, even then, have consented to hold office by the sufferance or permission of any party—(loud cheers)—believing, as I do. that ;t is for the public interest that a government remaining in power should be enabled to give practical effect to the measures which they may believe it necessary to introduce for the public good ; and and I do not think that, in a position in which her Majesty's Government was placed by the withdrawal— perhaps the natural withdrawal—of the confidence of many _of those who had hitherto supported them—l do not think it improbable that, even if that vote had been in our favour, her Majesty's Government would be enabled, with credit to themselves or with advantage to the inte rests of the country, to continue in the administration of public affairs. (Great ch ering.) We therefore felt it our duty to advise her Majesty to accept our resignations without adopting that alternative which might have been adopted, namely, recommending to the Crown to exercise its prerogative and to dissolve the present Parliament. We preferred the immediate tendering of our resignations to the adoption of that course. Sir, I do not hesitate to say, speaking with that frankness which I am sure can offend no one, that if her Majesty's Government had failed in carrying through Parliament, in all their inte grity, those measures of commercial policy, which it was On the l 8 h, while retiring down the river, they were attacked by 3,000 Caffres, but succeeded in crossing, with a loss of 1 officer and 2 men killed and 3 wounded. Their whole loss was 11 killed and 14 wounded. The loss of tfie Caffres is not stated. Government is taking steps to call out the whole force of the ca7alry, to put down the robber tribes by which they are surrounded. Martial law was proclaimed by the Governor on the 21st of April. At Post Victoria, on the 12th, a party of dragoons pursued a body of Caffres, numbering 1,500, and upon overtaking, attacked them. They were, however, forced to retreat, though the Caffres are said to have many slain, while the troops lost but one. A considerable body of Caffres had also attacked the de fended position, the Wesleyan chapel, at CoHingham, but wizbout success. They were also seen in considerable force at various points on the frontier. They also attacked Drift Post, and succeeded in carrying off 89 head of cattle. Lieutenant O'Rielly, on the 19th, with 8J men, met and engaged a large body of Caffres, and entirely routed them without serious loss on his own part. About 50 Caffres, nn the night of the 27th, attacked the cattle krall near Graham's Town, but was driven off by nine Englishmen. Large numbers of cattle, at other places, had been car ried off. uty to recommend. I do not hesitate I was no exertion which I would nott, have a dons cheering)—in order, if not to ensure their success, at least to give the country an opportunity of pro nouncing its opinion upon them. In that case I should have felt myself justified in advising her Ma jesty to the extreme course of dissolving the present Par liament ; but there was nn ty for such a course ne tight hon, oart then proceeded to say that he did not feel justified in advising her Majesty to exercise her prerogative for the purpose of enabling the government to pass an inferior measure, for, he felt strongly that the crown should not t tr •- -olution unl,- resor, a dm,. ,ess there be urgent reason. lie deprecated any argument being drawn from the government having introduced the Coercion Bill, that their opinions with reference to Ireland had un dergone any change; "speaking of myself," said he, " I do not hesitate to say that there ought to be established is Ireland, compleee equality (loud cheers,) in municipal and political institutions. (Cheers.) I say complete equa bly, as far as it is practicable to carry it out, in the pre sent political and religious aspect of the country. (Hear, hear.) It may not be possible to car r y ou t comp l ete no- litical and religious equality according to the letter of the terms, but it may be doe according to the spirit. But I speak of the spirit and not of the letter, in regard to the franchise, in regard to the municipal rights, and in regard to other great questions relating to Ireland. (Cheers.) There is a strong desire in the minds of many that the "e of Ireland should be placed in possession of the political and religious rights as those of Enetand and Scotland, and I admit - the correctness or the principle. Not only do I admit the justice ofEthe prin ciple. but I am of opinion that a complete assimilation of Ireland to England and Scotland in poiitical and religi- In an engagement at Block Drift on the 19th, it is stated that 200 Caffres were killed ; the Engliel lost 6 killed and 4 wounded; among the latter was Lieutenant Cochrane, who could not recover. Up to the date of the latest intelligence, no further attacks had been made, but the Caffres had been seen in bodies of 200 in different places, and had succeeded frequently in carrying off cattle. The colony seems to be seriously threatened by them, and ous priviliges, should not be defeated by any jealousy and suspicion on our -part. .With regard to any question involving the rights and privileges of the people of Ire land, I say distinc:ly that there ought not to be a different rule applied to Ireland to that which is applied to the people of this country. (Cheers.) It is impossible for me to say that there should be submitted with regard to Ireland a different rule of action to that which is ap plied to Englane.. (Cheers.) Regarding the Executive • had shot two or three mail carriers, set fire to dwellings, and thrown the population of the whole frontier into the utmost confusion. The Legislative Council had been summoned to compel by law the citizens to serve as soldiers for the defence of the colony. he powers of the Crown should not be exercised so as to occasion any real ground of complaint in regard to religious distinctions. It may be that we have given offence in sonic instance's in availing ourselves of the opportunity of appointing Roman Catholics to office. It may be said that we should have taken different means to carry out our policy ; but to that I will answer, that I hold it to he the best and cisest po licy to carry on the affairs of Government without refe rence to any differences on religious questions, and that it should make its appointments accordingly. (Cheeis.) With regard to the spirit in which legislation must be di rected, I must say, for one, I am prepared to co-operate with those who feel that the present social condition of the people of Ireland in respect to the tenure of land, and the relations of landlord and tenant, and are anxious to remedy the existing state of things. (Hear, hear.) It may be impossible by legislative euactments to apply an immediate remedy to the state of things which now exists ; but even if the benefit to be derived from legislation be extremely remote, set if the benefit be of a permanent character, then I shall feel it to be my duty to support them. (Hear, hear.) S'r, I have reason to believe the noble lord, the member for the City of London, hes been commanded by her Ma jesty to repair to her Majesty's presence for the purpose of hearing her Majesty's commands upon the subject of forming that government. (Hear, hear.) Sir, I presume that the general principle upon which the government to be formed by the noble lord, will—that is as far as its commercial policy is concerned—be to continue the appli cation of those princieles, which tend to give us a clear and unrestricted intercourse with other c , ut tries." The right hon. baronet having finished his observations on the policy which had been pursued by his government, in the course of which he stated that it was the last time he should ever address the house as a minister of the crown, sat down amidst loud cheering. The right hon. baronet immediately afterwards rose and said he had received a communication from Lord Juhn Russell, and he hoped that, agreeing with the wishes of the noble lord, the house would agree with the motion he was about to make, and which was that the house, at its rising, do adjourn to Friday next. Lord PALMERSTON rose, and was left speaking. 11013:SE OF LORDS. RESIGNATION OF MINISTERS. The Duke of WELLINGTON-1 have to announce to your Lordships, that her Majesty's servants have tendered to her Majesty their resignation of the offices which they have held in her Majesty's service. In consequence of that, her Majesty has sent for a Noble Lord, with a view to form an early administration of the the Government of this country, As the affairs of this country are now, my Lords, this information will probably induce your Lordships to think that it will be desirable to suspend the discussion of those measures which are likely to be come measures of controversy in this House until those who have the honour of being her Majesty's servants., sh all have an opportunity of forming their arrangements, and shall be able to come down to this House to tiausact the public business. The Noble Duke then suggested that the house should nor adjcnarn,-- but uc...ino its sir tings from day to day, for the purposeof passing t lre short Sugar Bill, for the continuation of the sugar duties fur a month. This was immediately agreed to, and several noble lords signified their readiness to postpone motions which they had on the paper. The house then broke up. WEST LANCASHIRE RAILWAY. The committee on this railway decided yesterday that that the preamble was not proved. Amongst the wit nesses were Mr. Thomas Sands and Dr. Duncan, of this town. The latter stated that he had made the medical stati,tics of Liverpool his study for several years, and considered that as the railway .vould lead to the erection of villas about Crosby, the air of which was most salubri ous, it would be extremely desirable fur the people of Liverpool. MANCHESTER, BUXTON. MATLOCK, AND The Preamble of this bill was yesterday declared proved ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—OPENING OF TES NEW CONCERT-ROOM.-lAst night, a new attraction was given to these delightful gardens. by the opening of a new concert-room, and the engagement of the celebrated vocalist, Mr. Henry Russell. The concert-room is a spacious building, admirably arranged, and capable of holding about three thousand persons. At one end is a stage and proscenium, and at the other a gallery ; and by the skill of the builder the room is so contrived that the singing can be heard both by those promenading the gar dens outside. and by the audience within. Of Mr. Russell's singing we need not speak here, further than to state that it was of the excellent quality for which this truly orizinal vocalist is d:stinguished, and that the whole went off with the greatest satisfaction. Messrs. Atkins on this, al on every portion of their management, which is moat liberal, deserve the warmest support of the public. Mr. Russell will appear again next on Wednesday and Friday. On Monday next, Professor Keller, who has been strengthening his extraordinary corps of" living statuary" on the continent, will make his first appearance in Liverpool at these gardens, and his at tractive exhibition will be continued the following Wednesday and Friday A QUESTION OF PRECEDENCE.—There is adifficulty,w understand, .in determining which of the law-office the Corporation should have the precedence in their pre sentation to Royalty, during the visit.

Riveira, it was rumoured, wes about to proceed up the Uruguay to Salta, with a few hundred men, and had applied to the English and French naval commanders for the means of transporting his troops, and also for a steamer to be placed at his disposal, in which, it was understood, they had acquiesced.

The cotton se now rat g to a close, IA the weekly r at the South give evidence that the crop is nearly An in ; at any rate, so much so as to warrant us ha expressing the conviction that this crop, including Texas. will not reach 2,100,000 bales. It is true that some few parties still cling to higher estimates, but we are unable to discover any grounds for such expectations, and its a matter of gratification to us that the v i ews we ()aye expressed in our circulars from time to time during the last winter, in re• gard to the present crop of cotton, (:Ind in which, for a long period, we were atmcst alone,) are now being verified by facts too strong to admit of doubt as to their correct.. nesa. By reference to our tables above, it will be corn that the receipts into all the ports this season, amount to 1.980,662 bales, against to the same dates last year of 2,343,285 bales, which chews a deficit of 362,623 bel s. The stoc:: of cotton in Augusta, Hamburg, and Macon, on the Ist instant, deducting that on hand on the Ist Sept. last, was 35,000 bales, which, added to the receipts, gives us a total supply this year of 2,015,662 bales. We beg once more to call your attention to our tables of exports, from which it will be seen that the falling off in the total amount exported, as compared with last year, amounts to 517.706 bales, the deficiency to Great Britain being 443,536. Our circular of 30th May gave the operations to the close of last month. On the 2d inst. we were placed in possession of. Liverpool advices to the 19th ult. per Hi bernia, showing an improvement in that cotton market,• and a more encouraging state of trade generally ; these accounts have been somewhat anticipated, holders con tinued to offer their stocks freely at previous rates, and a large bucinees during the week ending 6th June was the result, the sales amounting to at least 16,000 bales, chiefly for export to Liverpool. During last Week purchasers have continued their operations, though with less eager ness, and the sales summed up 13,000 bales, of which at least 4,000 bales were sold on Saturday. We continue our quotations as given in our last circular, which may be taken as the fair market standard, occasional sales being made a fraction above and others a trifle below the c tremes tor the various grades. liolderA, generally, dur ing the past two weeks, have evinced a disposition tomett the views of buyers at fair prices, and are still willing sel lers at current rates We have esi ....aced our stock " on hand and on ship cleared" at 90,000 bales ; when the recent pur s and . what is in course of shipment shall have left :he stock will be reduced to about 65,000 bales.

Maynard, the incum bent, several members of the committee, and friends of the charity. The examination in scripture was conducted by the Rev. W. Maynard, who expressed himself highly gratified with the .clear, audible, and distinct manner in which the children of the several classes read the portions allotted to them, and also With their general knowledge of the Holy Scriptures. The secular examination was con ducted by Miss Simm, the head mistress, in arithmetic, grammar, and geography. The sums were worked aloud, and the slates exhibited. The children parsed several sentences, and the geographical lesson was conducted in such a manner as clearly evinced that the children have not merely a parrotical acquaintance with that useful science, but have such a knowledge as would astonish any adult. Specimens of needlework, plain and fancy, were exhibited, as also the copy books, cyphering books, &c. The singing and recitations, too, were in perfect keeping with the rest of this truly pleasing exhibition. In conclu sion the rev. gentleman addressed the assembly in a very affecting and appropriate manner, and eulogising the mis tress for her indefatigable zeal in the fulfilment of her duty, he also stated that not only were the committee and himself sensible of the exertions made by her, but he had great pleasure in announcing to her that the children bud requested him to present her with a work-box (here he presented a beautiful work-box to Miss Simm) as a small token of their gratitude and lore for the kindness and pains taken in their instruction. This little school is now quite crowded with pupils, there not being room for any more scholars, and we hope ere long to see a more spacious and neighbourhood, co Mar i ners' Church, for the sons and daughters of our sailors.
