great fidelity. Two stadia of an apple and a cherry tree in

that in the meantime M. de Lamps is going on with

“ PARIS, MONDAY, Arm 4.
" The Powers have not yet come to a oomplete
agreement as to the conditions of the congress.

town of Jeremy, having been got up by General De-
licc.L'Esperanoe, who took advantage of his autho-
rity to obtain possession of a small fort, from which
he issued proclamations exciting the people to revolt.
His efforts had been, however, unavailing, u the
people, satisfied with G,ffrard, refused to join him,
and the discomfited general had been compelled to
meek for refuge at the house of the French consul.
He had afterwards been arrested, and is to brought

THE 'UNITED STATES.

LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.
The royal mail steam-ship Canada, Captain Lang,
which sailed from Boston on the 27th and from
Halifax on the night of the 28th ult., arrived here
this afternoon. She brought 108 passengers and
260,000 dollars in specie.
The steamer North Briton, hence, arrived at
Quebec on the 24th ult., taking out news of the con-
clusion of pesos. The steamer New York, from
Southampton, arrived at New York on the 26tta, and
the Europa, hence, reached Halifax on the 26th, and
was subsequently spoken by the Canada on the 27th,
bound in to Boston.

The news by this arrival is unimportant.
The peace news occasioned considerable sensation,
and the papers are mainly filled with comments upon
it. Its effect in a financial sense was very slight,
but it caused an improvement in the cotton markets.
A shocking tragedy was enacted at the Brandreth
House, corner of Broadway and Canal-street, New
York, on the 23rd of July. A merchant from Mo-
bile, Alabama, named Robert C. M'Donald, baying
cause to doubt the fidelity of his mistress, Virginia
Stewart, determined to kill her out of revenge. He
quarrelled with her in the street, and shot her
through the head as she was attempt.ng to seek re-
fuge in the Brandreth House. The murderer then
made an effort to kill himself with the pistol, a Colt's
revolter, but was arrested and restrained by several
citizens before he had time to accomplish his object.
The injured woman was conveyed to the New York
Hospital, where the doctorin attendance pronounced
the wound a mortal one, and gave it as his opinion
that she could not live many hours. The prisoner
was taken to the station-house, where he made a fall
confession of his guilt, and regretted nothing save
the fact of his being prevented from committing
suicide, as he intended. M'Donald is about 30 years
of ege, and is a native of Georgia.
The steam-ship Tennessee, arrived at New Orleans
from Vera Cruz, brought from General Garza, of
Tamaulipas, a request tor, or invitations to 3,000
Americans to pursue the civil war in Mexico, but
it is not understood that he acts under the autnority
of the constitutional government. The expedition is
to be fitted out at Tampico, where General Degol-
lado now is, and is to organise solely under the state
authority.
General Lerdo had left New Orleans for New
York. During his sojourn in the former city his
proposition to effect a loan did not, as was expected,
meet with much favour.

brewer. Some evidence wee celled In support of the ob.
Medea. Priestley denied that be had been bribed, and stated
that he had paid for the beer. The committee, after hearing
the evidence on both tides, decided that the vote was a bad
one. and moot be struck off.
The vote of Clarke Corgill was objected to on the ground
that a room in his hottee had bees engaged as • non-electors'

Mr. Phinn said that the whole of this opposition had
been of a most frivolous character, and called upon the com-
mittee to mark their moss of the course which bad bees

and his Minty is the effect of his own earelessoess. Many
groom, sad *yen gentlemen interested in horses, seem to

To the Right Hon. Sir 13, C. Lewio, Bert., M. P., Secretary

of State, &c.

Bir,—We, the undersigned inhabitants and ratepayers
the perish of Bt. George-in-the-Bast, beg leave most respect-
fully to protest against the proposed introduction of a poise
forte into our parish church for the purpose of overawing
the parishioners,—
lat. Because it is not necessary.
. .

There has been no mob et rabble in the understood sense
of the words in the parish church at any time. Neste of the
usual results of an assemblage of unruly characters has ap.
peered.

No awe has come before the police courts of pickpockets or
such like.

2. Beaus, it is

The parish church is a place of free resort for the perishioo-
ere, end the presence of a police force would deprive it of that
character; we feel that we do sot deserve treatment like this.

For more than fifteen years we have born. with patience and
kindly forbearance with Mr. King's offensive and unbecoming
omduct, and our present open opposition to him has been
forced on us by his vexations and annoying renitence to our
legal right* of electing a lecturer, the first outbreak having
been caused by the violent interruption of the lecturers'
service by one of the curates, acting as he said by the rectors,
order.

3. Bemuse the disturbance of Sunday last was provoked
by the rector's intemperate sermon in the morning, and by
his having delayed his afternoon servioe so as to club with
the assembling of the large congregation which attends the
lecturer's service.

The prevalent conviction that Mr. King had withdrawn
from his consent to submit to the bishop's arbitration on the
points in dispute with as, and had limited it in an unbecoming
manner, gave provocation to the parishioners thus brought
into undesirable collision with the rector end his assistants,
who are principally non-parishioners. On those grounds, or
protest, we have been driven into public opposition, because
our rights have been assailed, and our consciences offended,
and beams the law affords no redrew for such grievances as
ours. And we appeal to the legislature to interpose on our
behalf. Sigurd by Fifty-one Ratepayers.

I should my that he is like • mad dog—all jaw and

sans of right divine, the enemies of progress, the
smotherers of thought, are more devoted to him or

he can count for the great enterprises which he
contemplates. The Reaction will never forgive him
his revolutionary origin. The Revolution has par-
doned him his rigours and hi 4 faults.
" Let him re-read the brief and glorious history of
his dynasty. He will see that Napoleon I. had
himself anointed by the Reaction in the person of
the Pope, and that he was betrayed by France, by
Europe, and by the Holy Father himself. Such a
misfortune would not have happened if he had been
content with the anointment of the Revolution."
