''~ `?~`~ THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD LONDON LAW REPORT. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.-PRIDAY. John Brothi. a boatswain in the navy, was opposed in perso❑ by a Quaker named Wilton, the keeper of a " Tom and Jerry" shop at Stepney. The Quaker had arrested the insolvent for upwards of £2O, which he alleged to be due for rent, &c. The insolvent, on the other hand, solemnly denied that the debt amounted to that sum; he only owed him £l5 lOs. • The Quaker was severely examined by Mr. Woodroffe, who supported the insolvent. He stated that he had been secretary to Boatswain Smith in a society, but had s not been discharged on account of drunkenness; he was always sober and industri ous. Mr. Woodroffe.—Pray may I ask what is the sign of your Toni and Jerry shrip? Quaker.—Yes: it is " The Honest Lawyer." (Laughter.) Mr. Woodroffe--And is he not drawn holding his head under his arms? (Roars of Laughter.) Quaker.—Yes. he is; but he is not like thee, for he has got no whiskers. (Continued laughter.) Mr. Woodroffe.—Don't you think you had better put up an honest Quaker ? Quaker.-1 will do that if thou wilt pay for it. The Quaker swore to his debt, and was examined to the items. The insolvent stated that he only owed him £l5 10s. The Chief Commissioner,(inditmantly.)—How this man has screwed up his sanctity to In,ake his solemn aflirrnatioU that the insolvent owes him £2O I 'aont know. It is clear from his papers he does not, arid the court will not assist. The Quaker said he could prove it. Chief Commissioner.—Stand down, sir, the court will not assist you. The Quaker departed, and the insolvent was discharged. George Gray, a saint-like looking personage, who described himself as a schoolmaster and the minister of Providence Chapel, Vincent-square, Vauxhall-road, was brought up on his petition to be discharged. The insolvent was unopposed. From the statement of the insolvent it appeared that himself and three other persons, being religiously inclined, entered into an agreement with a persO% named Outhwaite to rent the chapel iu question at £6O - a-year, each undertaking for the other to pay a quarter of the rent. Notwithstanding the elo quence of the insolvent, the chapel turned out to be a losing concern, to the tune of upwards of £2O a-year. One of the per sons who had joined him in this religious undertaking bad al ready passed through the court; the second had a writ out against him, and the third was a prisoner', and would be brought before the court iu a few days. The insolvent, Who appeared to.think no little of himself and his calling, on being asked by. the chief commissioner the pro fession of his partners, in a dignified manner said one was a shoe-maker, (laughter,) another was a butler, (increased laughter,) and a third was in the horse-flesh line. (Great laughter.) For himself, independent of the arduous duties he had to perform in the chapel, he " taught," assisted by his wife, " the young idea how to shoot." Among the debts of the insolvent was one to the Horsferry Gas Company, for throwing additional light upon the chapel. I . The insolvent was ordered to be discharged. A BALLOON EXCURSION OF TWELVE HOURS, O'CONNELL'S CHARACTER, BY GRATTAV. Examine their leader, Mr. O'Connell. He assumes a right . to direct th e catholics of Ireland; he advises, he harangues, and he excites; he dues not attempt to allay the passions of a warm and mercurial people. Full of inflammatory matter, his declamations breathed everything but harmony,—venting against Great Britain the most disgusting calumny, false hood, and nonsense, equalled only by its excessive impudence —describing Great Britain as the most stupid, the most dis honest, and the most besotted nation that ever existed! That Ireland could nut confide in the ,promises of England, &C. Without discrimination he pronounced Protestants "bigots." When he enumerated the grievances of the catholic body, he omitted the greatest grievance—him;elf! A man who could make the speeches that he has made, utter the sentiments that be has uttered, abuse the characters that he has abused, and praise the characters that he has praised, violate the promises that lie has violated, propose such votes of thanks, and such votes of censure, s h ows th a t h e has little regard for private honour or public character; that he does not comprehend the spirit of liberty, and is not fitted to receive it. Ile betrays such a scatter e d an d ers t an di eg a nd barbaric mind, that if be got liberty h e wou ld l ose it ; a l mo st unsuited for the British constitution, and al mos t i g norant of the bonds of civil society, of such a m ou ld an d suc h a di s p o sition as to be incapable of accomplishing an y rational object. His declamations to the lower order s are f u ll o f extravagance, unreality, and ambiguity; he sets afloat the bad passions of the people, makes them rest less in disposition, and impotent in action; he leaves a vacuum in the meaning of his harangue, to be tilled by the heated ima ginations of a warm-hearted and sensible people. He is well aware that it is the part of a bad Man to make use of a griev ance as an instrument of power, and render it the - means of discontent, without a single honest attempt at redress. He knows, or at least ought to know, that this conduct is of such a nature as must also tend to confirm bad ministers and strengthen stern authority; it seduces people into unmeant mischief, and after exciting them to folly, it abandons them through fear; it may lead them to rise against au exciseman or a tithe-man, to burn a hay-stack, or murder a farmer, but will never teach them to redress a grievance, or to bring an offending minister to the scaffold. This leader in spirit is poor: his courage is of a hesitating quality. His political imprudence is prodigious; his martial prudence prodigious also. In debate he is more than a hero—in every sentence there is a challenge. In the field he is a diplom a tist. He was insulted and did not fight; again insulted, he was goaded to the "round , where his anta gonist (Roderigo) fell; be then offered an insult, was noticed by the condescending spirit of an imprudent minister, was challenged, travelled - 400 miles (incog.), was arrested through an unforeseen accident, and did not go to the ground, being prevented by unavoidable necessity. His speaking is extra vagant diction, a vulgar boast, a swaggering sentence, affected bombast, and ludicrous composition; his liberty is not liberal, his politics are not reason, his reading . is not learning, his learning is not knowletrge, his rhetoric is a gaudy hyperbole, garnished with faded flowers, such as a drabbled girl would pick up in Covent-garden, stuck on with the taste of a kitchen maid. He makes politics, a trade to serve his desperate views and interested purposes. This man can bring about nothing good; in abortions he is most fertile; the womb of his mind is of such sinful mould that it can never produce anything that is not deformed; he never succeeded in any project, except the loss of your question ; he barks and barks, and even when the filthy slaver has exhausted its poison, and retires to its kennel, there still barks and howls within unseen. No administration would injure their reputation by advanciag such a character, Stc. NEW YORK pAPERO. ( From the Journal of Commerce, August 28th.)

The rate increase is monstrous, and in several particulars captious; to say nothing of the most unrea sonable fluctuation. By far the most objectionable feature of the affair is that it is a trades' union—a turn-out of the most odious kind. Here are near 30 corporte bodies, owned and managed by the most wealthy citizens, who have been incorporated for a certain purpose of general utility, getting together to secure themselves against the competition of each other, and making a turn-out, not for an advance of a shilling a day upon the labour of their hands, but of 150 per cent. upon the immense premiums they already receive. If any . one of the companies chooses to put up its rates to a high point, let it do so ; but let not this great array of corporations skulk behind a combination. We regret to learn that the fine regular trading ship Eagle has been lost of Cape Sable. She was bound from Liverpool to this city with a very valuable cargo. The loss will fall heavily on the underwriters.—New York Daily Advertiser. Thursday being the day appointed for the grand Dahlia show of the Metropolitan Society of Florists, it accordingly took place at the Royal Gardens, Vauxhall, on which occasion Mr. tareen made his 208th ascent in his balloon. At about half-past five on Thursday eveniug, Mr. Green observed to a gentleman on the committee of the Florictiltural Society, that " he wanted a gentleman of light weight and with a heavy purse to accompany him." was immediately communicated to Mr. Butler, tun., who is a surgeon, residing at Woolwich; and, being introduced to Mr. Green, he offered ten guineas, which were accepted. Shortly before six the car was occupied by these gentlemen, and the ascent made. The balloon took a north-easterly direc tion, and about half-past six o'clock Mr. Green declared his in tention to descend and deposit Mr. Butler on terra firma, whilst he proceeded alone. To this proposition Mr. Butler de clared himielf opposed; being desirous to accompany Mr. Green the whole of the voyage. The word of authority, how ever, of a gentleman in command of a balloon, is not to be re belled against; so down went the balloon, and out went Mr. Butler, a little below Walthamstow. Before Mr. Green re ascended, he observed to Mr. Butler :—" I cannot now tell you the reason of my determination ; but you will know hereafter, and will be satisfied."—Mr. Green then took in a small quan tity of ballast, and proceeded ou his voyage, the wind conti nuing in the same quarter. Front that hour until late on Fri day night no tidings of Mr. Green were received. Upon Mr. Green's last ascent he informed Messrs. Gye and Hughes that if the wend were favourable he should cross the channel and descend in France; but the wind changing a short period be fore his ascent, he then abandoned the design. These gentle men, therefore. think this must have been the intention of Mr. Green on Thursday last, although he did not communicate it to any one, In the car were a pint of wine and a few biscuits, so that provision was not made for a long voyage; and, from having courted the companionship of a gentleman, whom he af terwards parted with, there is reason to believe the thought of proceeding a great distance was a sudden one, when lie pro posed descending with Mr. Butler, for " a particular purpose." If the win,d did not change, the course of the balloon must have been across Suffolk, Norfok, and the Nuith Sea, descending in Holland. Mr. Butler, on describing his voyage, says, "It was of a most delightful character, and the views pleasing beyond conception." He found the atmosphere very cold on ascend ing; it was also strongly impregnated with gas, which he con sidered gradually escaped from the balloon. The descent was easy ; the grappling irons were not thrown out, but a rope, swung from the car, was caught hold of by the assembled spec tators, and he alighted as easily as from a coach. About 150 persons had collected in the field, who afforded every assistance to Mr. Green in procuring ballast, &c. Saturday the anxiety for Mr. Green's safety was great, but all fears were allayed by a letter received front him. In the course of the day, the proprietors of Vauxhall Gardens stated that after having re-ascended at Walthamstow, upon parting with Mr. Butler, be proceeded on his voyage at a •slow rate during the whole night, passing over Suffolk into Norfolk, where he arrived the following morning, and finding the wind did not change, sties to permit him to proceed into the North, as was his original intention, and as the ballou was not sufficiently buoyant to render it prudent to attempt to pass over the sea , h e descended about a quarter before six o'cleck on Friday morn ing, after twelve hours' sail, alighting at Winsbotham, one mile north of Downham, in Norfolk, where he was hospitably enter tained by Mr. John Pike of that village. Mr. Green proposes again ascending when the wind should prove favourable for a voyage to the northern capital. FEMALE CORRECTION. It would appear from the following extracts, taken from the New Statistical Account of Scotland, under the head " Glas gow," just published, that church discipline in the olden times was not only severe, but chiefly directed against the female sex : " On 16th August, 1587, the Kirk Session .appointed harlots to be carted through the town, ducked in Clyde, and put in jugs at the cross on a market-day. The punishment for adultery was to appear six Sabbaths on the cock-stool at the pillar, base footed and bare-legged, in sackcloth, then to be carted through the town, and ducked iu Clyde from a pulley fixed on the bridge." " In 1588 the Kirk Session appointed some ash trees in the Hie Kirk Yard to be cut down to make forms for the folk to sit on in the kirk. Women were not to sit upon the forms, (ergo—women are not /0/0) but to bring stools with them." " It was also adjudged that women, married or unmarried, should come within the kirk door to preachings or prayers with their plaids about their heads, neither to lie down iu the kirk on their face in time of prayer, with certification that their plaids be drawn down, or they be raised by the .beadle. The beadles were to have stags for keeping quietness in the kirk and comely order." "On 26th December, 158 S, the magistrates, considering, the manifold blasphemies and evil words spoken by sundry women, direct the master of works to erect jugs, three or four steps up, that they may not be torn down." " In 16.35 the magistrates purchased the manse of the preben dary of Cambuslang ,iu the Drvgate, which they fitted up as a House of Correction for dissolute women; and - such was the vigilance of the Kirk Session, that they directed the women to be whipped every day during pleasure." " On 11th November, 1725, the Kirk Session enacted, that the elders and deacons should go through their proportions, and take notice of all young women who keep chambers alone, espe cially those suspected of lightness, and warn them that they will be taken notice of, and advise them to get honest men, or take themselves to service."

On Saturday week Prince Jamh-od-Deen, of Mysore, son of Tippoo Saib, accompanied by the Lord Provost, minutely in spected Forrest's interesting exhibition of statuary on the Calton Hill. He recognized with an acclamation of pleasure the statue of the Duke of Wellington. and expressed himself highly gratified with the whole exhibition. The prince also visited the College Natural History Museum on Monday, and spent about three hours examining the various objects of that splendid collection. The prince also visited the University Library. On Tuesday his highness visited the Advocates' Library, and about two o'clock proceeded to the printing -office of Messrs. Chambers, in Don's-close, where Mr. R. Chambers, who was present by appointmetit, explained to him the move ments of the printing-machine, as well as the process of stereo typing. The prince, who is much interested in machinery, manifested an enlightened curiosity in the inspection of the machine, and made himself minutely acquainted with the whole process. In order to impress his highness the more forcibly with a sense of the vast utility of the steam-press, he was shown an ordinary press at work; and when informed that the former, almost without any aid from the human hand, could as easily throw off ten thousand impressions in a day, as the other, by the laborious exertions of two men, could so small a number as one thousand, his feeling of wonder seemed very great. His highness also inspected the 71st Regiment on the Esplanade, Castlehill, The prince is the youngest son of the late Tippoo Seib, Sultan of Mysore, who perished at the siege of Seringapa. tam, in May, 1789.

The mildness of the Hindoo character is very conspicuous in his demeanour. It may not be uninteresting to add, that after the siege of Seringapatain the children of Tippoo, with his wives and female relations, received the Fort of Vellore, in the Car natic, (a province extending along the eastern coast of Hindus tan,) as a place of residence, with a yearly pension of 720,0(;•0 rupees from the English East India Company.—Glax gew Courier. THE OF GIN. Among the literary curiosities preserved in the British Museum is a pamphlet of extreme rarity, entitled Mother Gin," a tragi comical eclogue, printed in 1737, at the pel hat when the sale of " blue ruin" was prohibited. Gin is personified in the " eclogue." In the preface to this very singular piece the author hints that more of the liquid had been consumed by "unfortunate ladies" since its prohibition than before. The following may serve as a specimen of the style of the poem : " In turn, however, in some sort, rny lays I'll sing, and to the stars thy Gin I'll raise! Gin to the stars I'll lift with numerous strain, As I loved her, so Gin loved me again. The happy dame, the candid Mother Gin, Admires the unusual bright abode she's in, Sees ladies, wrapt in clouds, dram glasses phe, While at her feet, like fallen stars, some lie. From her they'ill consolation find: When cards, gallants, or husbands prove unkind„ Traffic abrOad and work at home decrease, Good Madam Gin loves idleness and ease." The humorous author concludes with " the Apotheosis of Gin." In a note in the course of the poem, it sass, "Gin is called in the canting dialect oil of balky. Since the suppres sion of gin, among the many new-inveuted.liquors there is one called sangree, a sort of punch, pieteuded to be wade of Madeira wine." COBBETT'S YOUNG MARRIAGE DAYS. I began my young marriage days in and near Philadelphia. At one of those times to which I have just alluded, in the mid dle of the burning hot month of July, I was greatly afraid of fatal consequences to my wife for want of sleep, she not having, after the great danger was over, had any sleep for more than forty-eight hours. All great cities in hot countries are, I be lieve, full of dogs; and they, in the vet) , hot weather, keep up during the night a horrible barking, and fighting, and howling. Upon the particular occasion to which 1 am adverting they made a noise so terrible and so unremitted that it was next to impos sible that even a person in full health and free from pain should obtain a minute's sleep. I was, about nine in the evening, sitting by the bed. "I do think," said she, " that I could go to sleep now, if it were not for the dogs." Dovvn stair's I went, and out I sallied, in my shirt and trousers, and without shoes and stockings, and going to a heap of stones lying beside the toad, set upon the dogs, going backward and forward, and keep ing them at two or three s hundred yards' distance from the house. I walked thus the whole night, barefooted, lest the noise of my shoes might possibly reach her ears; and I remember that the bricks of the causeway were, even in the night, so hot as to be disagreeable to my feet. My exertions produced the desired effect; a sleep of•several hours was the consequence; and, at eight o'clock in the minting, off went I to a day's business, which was to end at six in the evening. Women are all patriots of the soil; and, when her neighbours used to ask my wife whether all English husbands were like her's, she boldly an swered in the affirmative . . i had business to occupy the whole of my time, Sundays and week days, except sleeping hours; but 1 used to make time to assist her in the taking care of her baby, and in all sorts of things; get up, light her fire, boil her tea kettle, carry her warm water in cold weather, take the child while she 'dressed herself and got the breakfast ready, then breakfast, get her in water and wood for the day, then dress my self neatly, and sally forth to my business. The moment that was over I used to hasten back to her again ; and I no more thought of speeding a moment away f rom her, unless business compelled me, than I thought of quitting the country and going to sea. The thunder and lightning are tremendous in America, compared with what they are in England. My wife was, at one time, very much afraid of thunder and lightning; and, as is the feeling of all such women, and, indeed, all men too, she wanted„ company; and particularly her husband, in those times of dan ger.. I knew well, of course, that my presence would not di minish the danger; but, be I at what I might, if within reach of home. I used to quit my business and hasten to her, the mo ment I perceived a thunderstorm approaching. Scores of miles have I, firstand last, run on this errand in the streets of Phila= delphia! The Frenchmen who were my scholars used to laugh at me exceedingly on this account; and sometimes, when 1 was making an appointment with them, they would say, with a smile and a bow, " Snare la tonneie tovjours , Monsieur Cobbett." I never dangled a b ou t th e heels of my wife; seldom, very seldom, if ever, w a lk e d ou t, as it i s called, with her; I never "went a-walking" in the whole course of my life ; never went to walk without having some object in view; and, as I never could walk at a slow pace, it would have been bard work for her to keep up with ine.—Advice to },'puny Men. METROPOLITAN REGISTRATION. MIDDLESEX.—Mr. William Farren, the celebrated comedian, was objected to, because he was one of his Majesty's servant). It is impossible to believe that such an objection could come from any other person living than Mr. Joseph Hume, who is now commonly designated the Middlesex goose. It is worthy of remark also; as showing how the destructives detect anything like respectability in theatricals, that both Mr. Duruset and Mr. Charles Taylor, whose qualications ought to he considered as wholly unexceptionable, are, in common with Mr. Farren, ob jected to. Mr. Farren brought the deeds of a large leasehold property. and his claim was necessarily admitted; cf course the same will be the result with respect to the other parties vexa tiously assailed. The reformers are in high dudgeon at the suc cess or the opposition to the registration for the county by the conservatives. The reception of the impudent claims of Mr. Bulwer, M.P. for Lincoln, to vote for the county, will, it is an. ticipated, be successfully imitated in several instances where the parties should have' known better. The claims of Sir John H obbouse and several other electors, for property in the parish of St. Luke, Old-street, are in a similar manner objected to. The success of a conservative candidate at the next election is considered by all as certain. Whoever may be the successful candidate for Westminster at the next opportunity, it is morally certain that Colonel Evans will not be the man. His leaving his seat unoccupied, and the disgraceful character of the expe dition in which he is qinceraed, are considered sufficient by the majority of the electors to release them from their allegiance. MARYLESONE LOYAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION. —This society, feeling it was an imperative duty in them to no tice the late act of the vestry, in putting the names of forty-two vestrymen upon the registration list, after the due period for such purpose had elapsed, laid a case before Sir William Follett, who gives an opinion that " Mr. J. Garnett has subjected him self to the penalty of £5OO, and the rest of the party to an in dictment fur a conspiracy." We hear Sir William Follett's opinion will be acted upon ; we therefore wish the radical party well out of the scrape. BOROUGH oe MARYLEBOSIE.—It was stated by one of the radical members of the St. Marylebone vestry, on Tuesday evening last, that in the event of another election it is the in tention of the ultras to put forward Mr. Feargus O'Connor as the worthy coadjutor of Sir Samuel Whalley, in the room of H. Lytton Bulwer, Esq. It is with these ulterior views that the present meetings are got up at Savage's public-house, in Circus street. The whole of the interest of Mr. Thomas Murphy (I !) is calculated upon. The conservative cause has gained immense strength in East Surrey, upwards of eighty names have been added to it in the parish of Clapham alone. The objections raised by the ultra and whin-radical party to names appearing iu the registration list are o'f the most trifling description. At Reigate and Croy don the case is very nearly similar. In the borough of South wark, and particularly in the parish of St. Saviour, a vast ac cession of strength has accrued from the judicious efforts of the acting members dr the conservative association. STATE OF TRADE. LEEDS TRADE.—The woollen trade of this district continues in a very wholesome state, and there is little want of employ ment. The price of wool is tending upwards, but not to any extent. Halifax market, on Saturday, was again very flat, and very little business was done: 11uDDIts1IELD.—This market, on Tuesday, was well at tended, but there was only about an average quantity of business transacted. _ _ • _ BRA VEORD M REET.—The demand for goods, on Thursday, was as extensive as it has been for some time past, and six quarter merinos of the middle and lower qualities niet ready sale, and prices consequently continue firm. Goods of superior quality were also in request; particularly a new f a b r i c recently introduced, described as a six-quarter wide figured stuff, of va rious rich and elegant patterns, suitable for ladies' cloaks and dresses; and another called six-quarter wide plains or Saxony cloths. The stocks on hand are very small. HEcamoNDVVIKE.—The demand for blankets for the Ameri can market has now nearly ceased, and the Blanket Hall is better attended by both merchants and manufacturers for the home trade. Goods are regularly wanted and prices steady. Rocit wait, SEPT. 15.-On the whole our market has not been quite so active this week, though the demand fur goods has been very fair, yet there has not been that eagerness to purchase which has been manifested for several weeks previous. In wools the transactions have been very limited, but without any altera tion in prices. PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. P(i.—The French frigate Didon, Capt. de Percival, with his Royal Highness the Prince de Joinville, on board, sailed from Spithead this morning under royal salutes from his majesty's ship Britannia and the platform battery in the garrison, for Plymouth, Falmouth, and Brest. Rear-Admi ral Sir F. Lewis Maitland, K.C.B. (Soperintendant of the dock )ard, and second in command at this port), visited the Didon on Monday, and was received with a salute and the usual at tendant ceremonies. She is considered a pretty model, mounts sixty-two guns, and her internal condition is effective, evincing great improvements since the late war with that country. Se veral distinguished officers who have visited her assert that she is an equal match for any two-decker in the English service. His majesty's ship Asia, eiglity-lour, late flag ship at Lisbon, is ordered to be prepared with every practicable dispatch at Sheer ness. MAGISTERIAL IGNORANCE.—One of Cromwell's followers, who filled the important station of an Irish justice, at the period of 1661, having occasion to write the word "usage" connived to spell it without using a single letter of the original word ; his improved orthograp hy was " yultzitch." When some remarks were made on similar feats he averred that ".nolotly could spell with Few made from Irish geese."—Mirror. Al CANADA PAPERS ( From the Montreal Herald, August 26.). \%e have gleaned from the American papers a few more die , plays of unerring "judgment" and omnipotent " will," which, though not very important, serve to show that the spirit of free. dom is still alive and kicking in the best of all possible repub. lies. 1. One Thompson. an abolitionist, was attacked by a sove reign mob at Lynn, Massachusetts. He was extricated by the sheriff "from his perilous position, and smuggled out of the church in a whole skin." lhe sheriff widget into disgrace at the seat of the imperial government. 2. A riot at Newburgh—no cause assigned, always excepting, of Course, the sacred right of insurrection. 3. In Hartford county. Maryland, "the court-house.wasburnt last night," Why, or wherefore a court-house is burnt, nobody has any . right to inquire.• The sovereign people may do as it likes with its own. These are all the displays of " judgment and will" that have taken place • but several others are promised. 1. The editor of the New York Evening Star says, that if Thompson, the abolitionist, visits New York, be will be "se verely handled." 2. A daily paper of New York offers the following amiable suggestion : "As soon as the weather grows colder, so as to make such an operation pleasant, we mutt some respecter of morals will call a meeting to take into consideration the propriety of tarring and feathering the Rev. J. R. McDowell." 9. The, following scrap promises a great treat at Christmas next:— " A writer in the Mississippian says, that the names of near four Imndred and fifty persons have been given, who are en gaged in travelling through all the slave holding states, for the purpose ofincitiug a general insurrection, to take place on the 25th of December, 1835." One cannot bat be delighted to find that the displays of " judgment and will" meet pretty general approbation. The following remark of the Journal of Commerce clearly shows, that the gene al government, of which the Globe is the organ, highly approvds the recent horrors : " The spirit of riot has since invaded Washington, and we find the Globe cracking jokes on the occasion, and ridiculiug the efforts of the civil and military authorities for the preservation of the peace." The Norfolk Beacon, speaking of Robinson, the Englishman, who was " hanged on the spr?t," says, that if the man were guilty, it was but sheer justice" to hang him. Even the respectable citizens of Baltimore, sacrificing — ibeir private interests to the public g ood, looked o n the displays of popular sovereignty with a favourable eye. _ A correspondent of the United States Gazette says, iiths of the Baltimoreans looked on the late riots with perfect indifference ! DANGEROUS SITUATION OF THE PRINCE LLEWELWYN STEAMER. (Front the Bolton Chronicle.) On the 10th instant this vessel left George's Pier Head, verpool, for Beaumaris and Bangor, having on board 58 passen gers, the wind blowing a fresh gale at the time. When we passed the Rock Light House, the waves appeared to dash two thirds of its height. A passenger, seeing this, said " I never saw the sea before." The captain said, " Well, my man, but you will see something of it to-day." This roused the fears of i many, nor were those fears ll'grounded—the wind increased, and all were ordered below, and the captain with difficulty con tinued his•course, until we got to Abergele Bay, where it blew a complete hurricane. The passengers solicited him to turn back ; he told us he could not get back for the sand-banks. " ) . now see," he added, "if we proceed, we shall share the fate of the Rothsav Castle, nor is there any hope for us, unless we can get to the Point of Air, and go down the Dee." lie immediately turned the vessel about, and directed in course for the Dee. We soon passed in sight of the Point of Air, and after having rounded that point, we proCeeded for about four miles, when the vessel ran on a sand-bank, this was at four o'clock in the afternoon. The captain hoisted a signal of distress, but having no powder r -he could not fire a gun. .Under these circumstance', we remained until about eight o'clock, the wind blowing a hur ricane all the time. In the course of these four hours, one of the steam pipes broke below, and the planks on deck began to leave each other, and to lift up. They separated almost across the deck for an inch and a half. Now the boats were both pre pared, and it was feared that the crew would leave us, but the captain told us a boat could not live a minute. Nothing could be dune to repair the vessel until she got off the bank. Only the steam pipe was in some little way secured; and about eight o'clock the water began to rise, and the captain ordered the en ' giueer to use every effort to move the engines. In about half an hour she floated, but frequently struck again, until at last she struck and lay on her beam ends. The captain ordered every man to keep his hold, as there was no possibility of stand ing on deck. All held . fast, while the sea swept regularly over the vessel three times per minute, for an hour and a half, it be ing very dark and blowing most tremendously. The scene was awful beyond description; every man now began to look to Him who holds the winds in his hands, and directs the storm, and happily (not by the exertions of the sailors, but by the pro vidence of God) the wind changed, and beat 'upon the vessel on the other side, which in same way righted her. The captain, seeing this, shouted 'o the engineer to make another effort—he did so, and the vessel Lighted, got off the bank, and about twelve o'clock we cast anchor. The hurricane continuing, the cable, though strong chains, broke, and we drifted a little, until another anchor with a stronger chain cable was got out. Here we re mained until the hurricane ceased, which was about five o'clock on Friday night. The captain said he would now put all ashore immediately ; preparations were ninde, but he refused, stating that he believed they could repair the engine, so as to weigh anchor at twelve or one o'clock, which would be high water. This caused a great deal of hard sayings to the captain. Twelve o'clock arrived, and then lie said he durst not venture until day light, but would get under weigh about ten o'clock. About fire o'clock in the morniug, we saw we were about three miles from Mostvn Quay, Flintshire, and nothing would satisfy a number, but ihat the boats should be lowered, and they would leave. The sailors were willing, but the captain objected for awhile, but at last he gave au order that ail who wanted to go, might. The boats were lowered, and 2G, with all they had, were landed on the Fliritshire shore. At ten o'clock the anchor was got up, and before eleven we set sail. Now a dispute arose whether the vessel should go to Liverpool or Bangor. The captain put it to the passengers, saying it was not safe to go to Bangor, hut he would venture if thery would. It was put to the vote, and given in favour of Liverpool by.a majority of five. Before three o'clock we got into Liverpool, and we separated, thanking the captain for his conduct during the storm.—Communicated by a Passenyer. Arabia never was conquered by any foreign nation.

REASONS FOR MINISTERS ACCEPTINt; tlic MUNICIPAL. ACT, —lt may not be geherally known, but sue is the fact, that the radical ministry prevailed on their popish rid ultra adherents to accept the municipal bill, by saying that if they rejected the measure, in consequence of the alterations which the House of Lords had made, his majesty would tell them as they were un able to carry any measure he must either dismiss them or dis solve parliament, and that they had such a dread of either alter native, that they most readily accepted the bill. Were parlia ment dissolved to-morrow two good conservatives would be re turned for Wigan. WIGAN REGISTRATION.—On Saturday last the revising bar risters, Messrs. Heywotid, Greenwood, Etlanshard,lind Abra hall held courts in Wigan, for the purpose of revising the lists of voters from that towu and the surrounding townships who claim for the county. A considerable number were objected to by both the radicals and conservatives, the latter of which havd signally triumphed over the former. In Wigan alone, whore the radical voters are much more numerous in pivportion to the conservatives than in any of the country distriVs, 19 radicals were struck off and 17 conservatives; but taki all the our townships except tllaccrod, Horwick, Rivington, and Anlezark (of which places we have been unable to obtain an account of numbers), there are altogether 69 radicals and 50- conserve tives struck off, leaving a majority of 19 in favour of the for mer, notwithstanding the fact that many good conservative votes were lost in consequence of the parties not appearing when called on. The whole of the Wigan list was not got through at five o'clock, and the courts were adjourned till next Monday. THE DUCHESS OF KENT AND THE PRLNCESS VICTORIA. These illustrious ladies left Harewood House on Monday, the 4th instant, for Wentworth House, the seat of Earl Fitz william. Their royal highnesses were greeted with great enthu siasm on their passage through the towns of Wakefield and Barnsley, where they were met and welcomed by the principal inhabitants. At each of these places dinners were given on the occasion. At Mount Vernon, William Newham, Esq., whilst the horses were being changed, took the opportunity of congratulating her royal highness on her visit to Yorkshire. The compliment was acknowledged by Sir John Conroy, K.C.B. At Hood Hill, the Wath troop of yeomanry, commanded by Captain Lord Milton, awaited the arrival of the illustrious guests, and escorted them to Wentworth House, where the Earl Fitzwilliath awaited their arrival. Numerous parties from the neighbouring villages, principally females, were anxiously look ing for the arrival of the royal party; their patience was at length rewarded by a full length portrait of the probable future queen, exhibited in prqpria persona, under the - grand entrance to the house, immediately on their arrival, about three o'clock. Their royal highnesses left Wentworth House on Friday, and proceeded to Belvoir Castle, and from thence they will go to Burleigh House, the seat of the Marquis of Exeter. On Monday a public meeting was held at the Court-house, Rotherham, Chas. Nightingale, Esq., iu the chair, for the pur pose of presenting a loyal address to the princess on her arrival in the neighbourhood. MEASUREMEMT OF TONNAGE. The following is given in a Parliamentary paper, just publish - ed, as the revised tide of the Admirality Commission on this subject : Divide the length of the upper deck, from the after part of the stem to the fore part of the stern-post, into six equal parts. DEPTHS. — At each of those points of division measure in feet and decimal parts of a foot the depths from the under side of the upper deck to the ceiling at the limber strake. In the case of a break in the upper deck, the depths are to be measured from a line stretching in continuation o f the deck. BREADTHS.—Diet de each of these depths into five equal parts and measure the inside breadths at the following points ; videlicit, at one-fifth and at four-fifths from the upper deck at the foremost and aftermost depths; at two fifths and at four fifths from the upper deck at the midship depth, and at one-fifth from the upper deck at each of the two remaining depths. LENGTH.—At half the midship depth, measure the length of the vessel from the after part of.the stein to the fore part of the stern-post. Then add twice the midship depth to the depths at the foremost and aftermost points of division, for the sum of the depths; and for the sum of the breadths add together the upper and lower breadths at , the foremost and midship divisions. the upper and twice the lower breadths at the aftermost division, and the single breadth measured at each of the two remaining divisions. Then multiply the sum of the depths by the sum of the breadths, and this product by the length, and divide the final product by 3500, which will give the number of tons for register.

A LEECH BURROWING IN THE HUMAN THIGH.—Dr. Roe of Cavan, mentioned a curious case of this nature at the Dublin meeting. He said that he was called some time back to visit the daughter of a farmer residing at Drum, in the county of Ca van; the girl had been attacked several days previously with in flammation of the thigh, and at the time of his arrival was labour ing under severe symptomatic fever, with delirium. The thigh was tense, red, and shining, enlarged to nearly twice its natural size, and extremely painful. No cause could be assigned for the disease, and he was informed that until the occurrence of the pre sent attack she had always enjoyed excellent health. Having ascertained the existence of a collection of matter under the fas cia, he made an incision, and evacuated a bowlful of pus, mixed with what he considered to be clots of blood. His attention was. not directed to the contents of the abscess at that time ; besides, the room was dark, and he was anxious to give vent to the pus as quickly as possible, as the patient was extremely restless. On emptying the matter from the bowl on a clean flag outside the door, the girl's mother was surprised to find among it a leach, a, coiled up, quite alive, and moving actively. She immediately brought the leech to him, a nd it continued to live f o r several days afterwards. On inquiring minutely into the history of the case, he found that some days before she first complained of the limb she had been gathering water-creases in a ditch; and had felt hurt in or about the ankle of the inflamed limb, but did net pay much attention to it at the time. On examining the ankle, he found a triangular cicatrix, such as that which might be pro duced by a leech-bite. fact would seem to prove that such animals can.enter, burrow in, and preserve' their 7 itality in the soft parts of the human body. A member asked whether Dr. Roe meant to state that he did not know any other way in which it could enter. The animal in question was what is called a horse-leech, and which is generally found in ditches and stand tug pools.—Medical Gazette. LOVE IN A CHEST.—One of the strangest examinations ever heard of took place at the town-clerk's office, in this city, on Saturday last. Benjamiu Curtis is a servant of Mr. Heanley - . of Branstoufeu, and had formerly been fellow-servant with'a girl, who, it seems, had become strongly attached to him. Dur ing the last week the girl was observed lingering about Mr. Heanley's premises, and some suspicions as to the nature of her connexion with Curtis were awakened. At length a female servant of Mr. Heanley found her one day under Curtis's bed. The strange girl, however, hid herself, and could not be found, on other residents of the house being fetched up stairs. No further discovery was made until Friday last, when a rumbling being beard in Curtis's bet-chamber, IVlr. Heanley ran up stairs, but could see nothing, nor obtain any answer to his calls. ' The same noise being renewed ere Mr. Heanley reached the buttons of the stairs, he again ascended, and seeing a chest move, he laid his hand on it, and knocked, and was answered by a tow moan. - Curtis was just at that mbinent returned Trout Lincoln, whither his master had despatched him in the morning on business. Mr. Heanley called him up stairs, and he imme diately unlocked the chest, where lay the foolish but pitiable girl, half dead with suffocation. Curtis immediately made con fession that he had locked the girl up, at her own request, in the morning, on receiving his master's orders for Lincoln—the erring fair,one's fear of discovery being so strong as to over ' come all dread of the risk of suffocation. She had been for twelve hours crowded into a space three feet long, and one fook and a half wide. Her age is but nineteen, and her stature not giant-like. T. the latter consideration, iu a great degree, the preservation of her existence in such an unusual love prison, is, no doubt, to be attributed. The girl was sent home, , after re-. I ceiving suitable censure from the magistrates.— I. 4 .incoin Mercury. BANK OP ENGLAND.—A General Court of Proprietors of Bank Stock was held on Thursday in the Court Room, for the purpose of declaring a dividend for the current year. The go vernor stated that the Court of Directors had proposed a divi dend of four per cent. on the half-year ending 10th of October next.—Mr. Selwyn wished to ask whether the profits of the con cern, which had accrued in the last half-year, exceeded or fell short of the amount that wnuld be required to pay the dividends which become due on the 10th of October ?--The governor said, having anticipated that the question would be put, he was pre-, pared to answer it. The dividend was made up by taking r 19,000 from the" Rest" (the reserved funds of the corporation), which on the 31st of Augu=t was :C2,740,041; and this, added to £12,000 taken for the dividend in April last, made £31,000. — the whole deficiency up to the 31st ult. This he deemed a very trifling reduction of profit , p a r ticula rly when it was considered that in this the first year of the new charter coining into opera tion, no less than E. 120,000 had been deducted from the amount they had before received for the management of the pub lic debt from government. This shows that the concerns of the bank were prosperous; and the directors therefore recommended that the present dividend should be continued. The statement that the bank had received a sum o f v.15,000„ 6 3 composition for the losses sustained through Fanntleroy, was cheered by the proprietors, under the persuasion that it was so much added to the current profits of the half-veur; but it wag afterwards stated, in answer to questions put, that it neither formed part of the dividend nor of the " Rest," but had been set off against a stun estimated as the probable loss by Faun:le toy, to which it was not quite equal. The total loss by Faunt leroy was E:360,000. and of this £.250,000 was written off as irre coverable. The difference between these two sums is £llO,OOO, exclusive of any accumulation of interest, and the bank having now accepted £95,000 as a composition or final dividend, it fel- , lows that there isa further loss of £13,000, at least, to be placed to the debt of the nex,t half year, and which is, of course, a fur ther diminution of the " rest." After a few more observations from different proprietors, the motion for a dividend o four_per cent. was agreed to. It was stated that warrants for the divi dend would be ready and paid on the 12th of next month. Mr. M•othew Marshall has been appointed chief cashier to the Bahlt of England, in the mom of the late Mr. Thomas Rippon. l: t~ ;. • A I It.
