HAMBURGH MAIL.

STOCKHOI,M, OCT. 19.—An important Royal Ordi-
nance, respecting the importation of corn, dated the 11th
of this month, is published in the official Gazette. It
states that his Majesty has learned, with great regret,
that the harvest of the most important species of grain,
Wheat and Rye, has almost entirely failed, and it has,
therefore, resolved very considerably to reduce the import
duty from the Ist of November this year till the 31st of
December, 1844. At the same time corn of all kinds
may be exported to foreign countries free of duty during
the same period.
POZEN, OCT. 16.—The King has given his Polish sub-
jects a new proof of magnanimity and clemency by
allowing young Count Marcsinski to return to his family.
The Count belongs to one of the most distinguished and
wealthy families of the Grand Duchy. When a very
young man ho took an active part in the, Polish revolu-
tion, and after it was suppressed went abroad. After the
publication of the general amnesty on the King's, acces-
sion he applied for his pardon, which has been granted
to him.

FRANKFORT,' OCT. 22.—A young Jewish banker in

THE cHqpcf-DIAN.

This periodical, described as 71a magazine in
support of the Church," must give the reader a
most unfavourable idea of the establishment
which it would take under its protection. ft
accuses other sects and political parties of false-
hoods without the slightest foundation; claims for
the Church, though covertly, exclusive loyalty
and piety; and imputes to what the writer is
pleased to call the Whig-Radical Press state-
ments utterly devoid of truth. W4at Whip!

excited great interest in the fashionable 'circles from the
known respectability of the parties, and their relation to
the most distinguished families in, the county of Norfolk.
Counsellor EvANs, Judge of the Court, after hearing
the defence the preceding day, on the 26th inst. pro-
ceeded to deliver judgment as follows:—This was a suit
brought by the Rev. Arthur Loftus, of Fincham, against
his wife, Mary Anna Ray Loftus, for the restitution of
conjugal rights; and it appeared to him that the Rev.
Gentleman was fully entitled to what he prayed for. The
defendant prayed for a divorce, on the ground that her
husband had been guilty of cruelty towards her. Ten
witnesses had been examined, and it was his duty to
inquire whether their evidence made out the alle-
gations against the husband. The most serious
allegation made by the wife was, that Mr. Loftus
had been in the habit of putting himself in a violent pas-
sion, and in consequence she had suffered in her bodily
health, and had been prematurely delivered three times.
Mrs. Loftus had had three children, and it was in evi-
dence, by both suit and defence, that the first was born
prematurely in October, 1837 ; but that it was caused
by the violence of the husband seemed doubtful, the
violence complained of being committed near three
months before the birth of the child. The evidence of
the servant, nurse, and medical men showed that the
premature birth was caused by her own over-exertion
the day before her confinement, for it was stated she
went up the steps of a mill, was frightened by some
horses, and slipped down in a hurry. The Learned
Gentleman was satisfied the second confinement,
though premature, was not caused by violence ; and
the charge also failed with respect to the third
confinement. Mrs. Loftus left her husband in Oc-
tober, 1839, and the child was not born till four
months after. There was no pretence for
with
the violence of Mr. Loftus had anything

THE WOOLLEN TRADE.

TRADE OF LEEDS.—The cloth markets at both
Cloth Halls have been quite as dull this week as last,
and prices are exceedingly low where sales are effected.
This is particularly the case for goods of fine qualities,
for although the stocks of this description are smaller
than usual, yet such is the state of the market, that the
manufacturer cannot sell at' prices that will pay him.
There has been rather more business done in the ware-
houses since the 20th instant, but on the whole it has
been very dull, and there is a pretty general opinion
entertained that business is not likely to improve for
some time to come.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, 0CT.25,
—There has been a very fair demand for flannels to-
day, though the market ba3 been but thinly attended.
Prices remain the same ; indeed there has been no
change for some weeks back. The wool market has
been more than usually dull ; and, on account of the
prices giving way, the manufacturers buy very spar-
ingly.—Lccds Mercury.

DEATH OF REAR•ADMIIIAL J. W. HOL-
LAND.—This gallant naval officer expired at his residence
at Bath on Tuesday last, inlis 76th year. The deceased
Admiral had been upwards of fifty years in the naval
service, and his commission as Lieutenant is dated as far
back as June 1794, He was Midshipman on board the
Queen Charlotte in Lord Howe's action, when he was
severely wounded ; and in 1801, when senior Lieutenant
of the Phcebe, took an active part in the gallant engage-
ment between that vessel of war and L'Africaine, which
was captured ; and for the wounds he received on that
occasion he was promoted. Ho retired in June, 1838,
on half-pay.
The Staff of the New Governor-General of India,
Lord Ellenborough, consists of Captain Somerset, of the
Grenadier Guards (son of Lieutenant-General Lord
Fitzßoy Somerset), as Military Secretary'; Lieutenant
Colville, gazetted last night from 85th to the 40th Foot
(son of General •Sir Charles Colville), and Lieutenant
Durand, of the Bengal Engineers, as AideS-&-Camp.
A gentleman from the office of the Board of Control, it
is understood, will accompany the Governor-General as
Private Secretary. Lord Ellenborough embarks in the
Cambrian, Capt. Chads, on the 4th of next month ; and
Lord Auckland embarks for England earl► in March.—

condition. The corn-crop generally has been gathered
home in a very unsatisfactory manner. In some exten-
sive districts it is still rotting on the fields, both in stack
and swarth, and :in mountain districts there are quan-
tities of oats and rye still unripe, and, of course, never to
be reaped. The quality of the oaten crop is generally
the most inferior we have ever known, and we have seen
samples which would bring no more than five and six
shillings per barrel in the market. Barley, as to pro-
duce, is an average crop, but it is of rather discoloured
and damp, quality. Wheat has fully justified the opi-
nions which were expressed by us in our last report,
and, as to produce, has turned out a highly remunerative
crop, and, generally speaking, of very fair quality. A
vast portion of the late-mown hay crop is fit only for the
dungheap."

Madrid was tranquil up to the 25th ult. The Military
Commission had sentenced Brigadier-General Quiroga,
who assisted in directing the attack on the Palace, to be
shot. The high rank of this officer forbids the indulg-
ence of a hope that he will be pardoned.
A revolutionary conspiracy of a formidable character
was discovered in Brussels on the 29th ult. In one of
the suburbs of that city two new six-pounders and two
field-pieces, with horses and ammunition, were seized.
They were conveyed by the police to the Town-hall.
Eight persons were arrested, including Generals Van-
dersmissen and Vandermeeren, a captain whose name is
not given, with some individuals of high rank. All the
particulars that have yet reached us will be found in
another column.

The Memorial Bordelais says that M. Olozaga, the
Spanish Ambassador at Paris, has been invested with
the Grand Cross of the Order of Isabella the Catholic,
as a reward for his recent services. Major-Generals
Ayerbe, Evariste, San Miguel, Chacon, and Alcala
have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Ge-

Radical paper ever represented the Queen as re-
gardless of the sanctity of the Sabbath, as inat-
tentive to family devotion, and as absorbed with
the pleasures of the Court? Not one. But
some of the parsons did, to their disgrace as Chris-
tiansand men. Now, if we are to believe this
oracle, they, overflow with love to her Majesty.
In the first half page the word " love " occurs
ten times, and is understood twenty more, form-
ing the most mawkish piece of silly twaddle that
ever issued from the press. "We love the
Church," says this parson, "but we • love like-
wise the Queen. We love the office of the
Queen—we love the family—we love the illus-
trious foreign houses—we love the house of
Brunswick, the houses of Cobourg and Gotha—
we love the person of our young Queen—we love
herself for her own charms, her sex—we love
her illustrious consort, and their cherished and
beloved child, the Princess Royal," &c. &c. He
then begins a new theme with this charitable an-
nouncement:—" It is false, wholly false, that
Protestant Conservatives do not love their
Queen." For the peace of society we sincerely
hope that this writer does not represent the
clergy of England.

LONDON:
TUESDAY, NOVEIIBER 2, 1841.

Sir ROBERT PEEL has evidently drawn his
policy too fine. He has either forgotten, or
never learnt, that admirable maxim of DAVID
HI ME, to the effect," that in schemes of general
policy you should always leave a la'rge margin
for contingencies." Sir ROBERT put off the con-
sideration of financial and commercial reform
till February, that he might have nearly all the
intervening period to study those subjects. The
least observation of recent Parliamentary his-
tory must convince every man that each recess
brings its own work for each Session, and
that Parliament is already overwhe
a greater arrear of business, wlmed with
hether it
be set down in the paper or not, than
the Court of Chancery. What may hap-
pen between this and February to engross
the immediate attention of Parliatnent when it
meets, mortal man cannot say but this we
know, that the forgery of Exchequer bills by a
Government officer, a thing which we believe
never happened before, has completely vitiated
the paper put into circulation by the Govern-
ment, injured its credit, and will compel it to
provide temporarily for the floating debt, proba-
bly even before it attends to commercial and
financial reform.

To the Bank of England, and perhaps to a few
of the largest and safest banks cf the metropolis
and in Scotland—so far as they keep in their
coffers only those Exchequer bills which they
have received direct from the Exchequer Bill-
office, in exchange for those they previously
held, and hold none bought in the market—this
vitiation of the Government paper money may
not cause much inconve:iience ; but to the capi,
talists who vest their spare money in these bills
--to the bankers, who have bought them in the
market, and hold them in readiness to meet
demands—to nearly all the -monied classes of
the kingdom, who hold portions of the favourite
and hitherto untainted security, the forgery will
cause inconceivable inconvenience. They are

EGYPT.

We have received advices from Alexandria to the 26th
ult., but they contain no political intelligence of interest.
A Correspondent writes on that date :

" The other day all the June overland passengers
reached this, place too late to proceed to England in the
Oriental steamer, though they arrived at Suez on the
morning of the 15th of July, and the Oriental departed
hence on the morning of the 20th. The passengers
state that their disappointment is to be attributed either
to Messrs. Hill and Co. not having adequate means.
or to their negligence. • I have also this moment learned
that of the 22d July passengers per Oriental for India
only four reached Suez in time for the steamer there.
The others, among whom were several ladies, were left
at station-houses in the desert, two of the party suffering
from a coup de Soleil. Had there been such means of
conveyance as are promised and advertised by Messrs.
Hill and Co., both parties would have reached in time to
embark in the steamers, with at least 24 hours to spare."
London, England, 1841-08-18

AGRICULTUNLAii.

The Galway, Derry, and Tuam papers state that
rain has fallen, for the last week, at least, in torrents.
Great alarm prevails among the farmers.

—We understand, from the British Mirror, that the
crops of potatoes were never known to be more abundant
than they are at present.

On Monday and yesterday two large fields of wheat
were reaped at Brentford.

" In Dublin," says the Piot, " the weather has been
most unpropitious of late, every day wearing at its outset a
bright promising brow, but the noon and evening bring-
ing, for the most part, rain and storm."

LAW AND POLICE,

The Liverpool Assizes commenced on Monday.
The calendar is very heavy, the number of prisoners
amounting to 98, of whom not fewer than semi are
charged with murder, thirteen With manslaughter, and
seven with cutting and maiming. What a frightful con-
trast to the late calendars for the. Assizes in a country
where the Tory prints say there is no security for life; or
property.

At the Croydon Assizes yesterday the long pending
suit of Punter v. Grantley was decided, when the Jury
returned a verdict for the plaintiff, with 2751. damages.
—Mr. Vinning, an insolvent, father of the Infant
Sappho, underwent a long examination yesterday, in the
Insolvent Debtor's Court. The ground of the opposition
was the disposal of a diamond pin which had been pre-
sented to his daughter by her Majesty, as well as a
defective balance sheet, and the bail was enlarged until
the 4th of October, in order that it might be amended.

Two cab drivers were fined 10s. each, at Union
Hall yesterday, at the instance of the Directors of the
Brighton Railroad, for refusing to produce their badges.
Several passengers had been overcharged for the hire
of cabs to the London terminus, and the Directors, wish-
mg to check the practice, had given directions that the
numbers of all cabs bringing passengers should be taken
down. The parties in question refused.

The Act of Parliament for making non-parochial
registers evidence in Courts of Justice, came jute opera-
tion on the 10th instant. Parties may obtain a certified
copy of any extract, with the seal of office, by applying
to the liegistrar-General's-office, Somerset-house.

strangers, who had left Candia. Disorders continue to
afflict the neighbourhood of Beyrout and the mountains.
The,Government couriers are stopped. A relative of

" Who runs Way read."

FOREIGN.
We have news from China to the 27th of April.
An entire stop was put to the trade with the " outside
Barbarians." The Emperor had ordered all teas, rhubarb,
and other articles usually purchasea,by the English, to
be destroyed. This order the natives were cheerfully
obeying, as the Imperial decree grants them ample
compensation.

Attempts were made by rafts to destroy the British
shipping in the Canton river.

The opium traffic was making no progress south o:
Formosa.

Letters from Constantinople, of the 27th ult., state
that the health of the Sultan is improving.
On the 25th ult. a fire broke out at Smyrna, which
destroyed several mosques, houses, and shops. The de-
tails have not reached us.
An express from Paris, of Monday's date, states
that disturbances broke out at Bourdeaux, in consequence
of the census. They were, however, put down by the
authorities.

The Bill for the relief of the Spanish clergy was
adopted by the Committee of the Senate on the 7th inst.
The state of destitution to which the unfortunate friars,
monks, and nuns, whose property was seized by the
State, arc reduced, is truly pitiable.

.MONEY-TRADE-COMMERCE.

The accounts -from Newcastle-under-iyne, respect-
ing the depression of trade, are most painful. No town
possesses greater advantages for the carrying on of busi-
ness which requires abundance of fuel, such as the iron,
pottery, and Blass trades ; yet in all these, nevertheless,
there is almost absolute stagnation.
The Newcastle Commercial Banking Company re-
solved, at their annual meeting on Friday last, to pay a
dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum on the paid-
up capital of the Company, which is now 75,0001. It
appears that the` losses of the Bank, during the five years
it has been in business, have not exceeded 1551. Bs. -

The Paisley 'operatives, unemployed and in dis-
tress, held a meeting at the Philosophical Hall, Paisley,
on the 10th of August, when they passed a series of
resolutions proposing that an appeal be made to the
Queen and Government, and in which they state their
intention of emigrating to Port Philip or Sydney, sup-
plicating at the same time her Majesty to forward their
aim by supplying them with clothes, as a local appeal
on the subject would be vain. They compute that at 41.
a head, and counting 250 Its the complement of one ship,
1,0001. would be' required. ••

Messrs. BROWNE and CARTWRIGHT, Surgeon-
Dentists, 21, Fleet-street, beg to call public attention to their
new and beautiful EVERLASTING TEETH, the most clean
and wholesome that can be worn. They are so exactly formed
to nature, both in shape and colour, that the closest observer
cannot detect the difference, with this advantage—they never
change colour, decay, or wear ant ; and a complete set, on fine
gold, for which they will only charge 15 to 18 guineas, will last
for 20 years or upwards, and are far superior to those usually
charged 30 sr 40 guineas; a single tooth, one guinea; three
ditto, two guineas and a half. Natural teeth supplied from 5!.
per set, or 10s. per tooth. Messrs. Brown and Cartwright's
method of fitting neither requires the extraction of stumps nor
gives the slightest pain ; and having had upwards of 20 years'
experience in the profession, can guarantee to restore perfect
mastication and articulation, having succeeded in thousands of
cases, in hundreds of which other dentists had entirely failed.
The above are totally different from the brittle glossy French
teeth, usually supplied by dentists as newly-discovered mineral,
&c. A visit will convince the most sceptical of the fact.
