IMPORTANT NEWS FROM

AMERICA.

HAvEE, OCT. 13.—The packet Louis Philippe, Capt.
Cartoffe, arrived this morning from New York, which
she left on the 28th of September, bearing accounts three
days later than those we have received by the Greet
Westelys. The dissolution of the Whig party becomes
more apparent in every quarter, and the differences
which have occurred between the legis!ative and execu-
tive have given rise to violent acc!amations againq
the latter. The disunion between the Northern and
Southern States, awakened by a recent act
the Senate, makes progress—that the doctrine of
" Sates rights " to power in the person of
the President threatens to accelerate. The trial of
M'Leod, which was to take place two days after the
departure of the packet produced intense anxiety.
One of the leading journals remarks :—" All the
journals of the interior of the State, particularly
those in the neighbourhood of the Anglo-American
frontier, are unanimous in picturing the irritation
which exists among all classes of the people, as truly
alarming. Se, as we said the other day, the masses
will not remain neuter—they will attend the trial,
not to await the course of justice, but by their
menacing attitude to obtain, or force, a conviction ;
and if this is refused, it is feared they wilt
proceed to acts of violence We desire to
believe that, even in their anger, tbe:e will be sufficient
magnanimity to respect justice and to spare M'Leod, and
that the vengeance of the whole people will not descend
upon a sul.tary individual. But the rancour of the
northern population against England will swell out in
the disappointment they wi.l feel, in seeing escape thern
the victim they claim, in expiation of their injuries, and
this rancour, which could scarcely be suppressed when
Leod was kept as an hostage, will surely burst forth
should he be set at liberty. In fact there is, through-
out the whole of the frontier, the same symptoms as
preceded the civil war in Canada, a war so just in its
object, so fatal in its consequeneei. The journals speak
of the enrolment of men and the pillage of arsenals in
every direction.
The Prince de Joinville had left New York for
Washington. Three mails, which were in arrear from
New Orleans, had arrived, bringing accounts to Sept.
15. The sickness had increased. Eighteen thousand
bales of new cotton had been received. Prices were, for
fair, 10 to 101 cents.
NEWS FROM PERU,

By the barque George and Henry, which left Val,
paraiso June 12, and Coquimbo 26, accounts have
been received from Chili and Peru. In Chili, the
election of a new President had occasioned an ex-
citement nearly resembling a civil war. The two
candid4tes were the ex-President Gencral Pinto and
General Putner. Whilst the George and Henry was rt
Valparaiso, the British steamer Chili had been ship-
wrecked on the coast, and many passengers and seamen
had been drowned. In Peru, the civil desseesions had
been appeased. The RevAutionists, of whom Vivauqa
was the chief, had been beaten and dispersed.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(Tills DAY.)
_ _

(Before Mr. WALSiBY and a Bench of Magistrates.)
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.—Phoebe Chapman
alins 1 hcebe Gibbs, a respectable-looking woman, was
indicted for assaulting Richard Case on the 2-.11-11 of
July last.
The parties in this case resided in Duke-strett. On
the morning in question, the prosecutor's daughter
was beating her mat in the street. The defendant came
out and told her she should not beat her mat there.
A quarrel ensued, and the prosecutor came out and
beat the mat, when the defendant went into her house
and brought out her mat,which she beat against the pro-
secutor, who stood stock-still. She knocked off his hat, and
kicked it into the kennel. He said nothing abusive to
the defendant, he merely said, " Mrs. Chanr,-,an, we
must settle this elsewhere." On his cr0..,-,exAmination
he said that the defendant had 1.1‘7.:n living for some
years past with a Mr. Gibbs, a respectable man ; that
he had no reason to Ldelieve t':,ey were not mar-
ried, but that
te had called her Chapman be-
cause someyears ago she had given that name
at a IP:lilac-office where she had appeared to prose-
ou.'.e a person. He had not struck her, nor had he told
any boys to hurra.

The witnesses for the defence swore that the prove-
cuter assaulted the defendant in the first instance, that
he knocked off his own hat, and that he had told the
boys to hurra, and that they did so.
Mr. WALSEBY, in summing up, said he thought the
case ought not to have been brought here.
The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and the Court
sentenced her to pay a fine of Is, and to enter into her
own recognizances for 20/. to keep the peace towards
Mr. Case for six months.

Sarah Sparrow was indicted for keeping a disorderly
house in Exeter-street.

Mr. PRENDERGAST, who appeared for the prosecu-
tion, said it was instituted, not by any public authori-
ties, but by a person who bed been robbed on the
premises.

- Henry Alfred Mend stated that he was a hair-
dresser, residing in Marshall street, Borough-road.
In the month of June last, be met a female in
the Strand, and accompanied her to this house, and after
he left her he missed 151. from his fob pocket.
He went to the defendant the next day, with whom he
had been previously acquainted for some years, and she
told him he was net the filet man who bad been robbed
in the house, and desired him to leave the house.
On his cross-examination, he admitted that he had
no shop, that he only occupied his present lodgings three
weeks, that he bad been living in various places with va-
rious women during the last twelve months ; that he had
lived with Mr. Mitchell as valet and butler, and that
while living there he had caused the plate of his
master to be pawned ; that he bad received the
money of which he had been robbed to go down to
Scarborough on electioneering business ; and that he
was to pay it to Mr. Pennington, the Clark to Mr.
Atkinson, the attorney for this prosecution ; that he
had received it from Mr. Hayes at the Grecian ;
that he did not know where Mr. Hayes lived ; that
Mr. Hayes was a clerk in a great house of business,
hut who were the partners in the home, or where it
was situated, he Gould not tell. He had been intro-
duced to Mr. Hayes by Mr. Pennington. Could
not name any person who had seen either
of the three 51. notes of which he had been
robbed. Had been once tried on a charge of
felony, but had been acqu'ved. Had heard of a per-
son named Cochrane. Cochrane had teen charged by
the defendant with theft. Cochrane sass at Bow-
street. Mr. Peouington was there. Does not know
how soon after he had been introduced to Mr. Atkin-
son by Pennington. Does not know how soon after
he indicted the house. Was not married. Had had
children, but did not know wheel they were.
Had never been maintained by any of the women with
whom he had lived. Had maintained himself by his
business end money he had from his friends. Could
not say when he had last earned a crown. Had dressed
Mr. Pennington's hair within the last six months s fre.. ,
quented the saloon and other public places. This
witness frequently eontradicted himself.
On his re-examination he said that his father had been
cook in the service of Prince Esterhazy, and that Mr.
Mitchell would give him a character, and had since em-
ployed him to dispose of a carriage for him.
Several other witnesses were called, who resided ia the
neighbourhood, one of whom, Mr. Belfeld, com-
plained of having heard noises in the house, and
had seen women at the windows, but had not seen any
thing indecent in their conduct. He admitted that he
had built his premises opposite to tht house, and had,
in fact, come to the nuisaereses The policeman on the
beat said he had net seen or heard any noise or dis-
order in the bonitos which was in general well conducted ;
and the beadle of the parish, who was called to prove
occupancy of the defendant, said that the house wtta
a quirt, orderly, well-conducted house,
Mr. CLARKSON, in addressing the Jury for the
defence, put it to them if they could believe the
evidence of Muni], and commented in the severest
terms on the conduct of Pennington, the at-,
torney's clerk, contending that the presentation
was got up merely to extort retreats end that
there was no evidence to prove this % disorderly house.
There was no one who lailsnel with the money
in his possession, and .althoUgh Mr. Pennington was in
Court he had net tight proper to place himself in
the witness box. '
During the defence Mr. Atkinson, the attorney for
the prosecutor, frequently attempted to interrupt
Mr. Clarkson until at Length the Chairman
addressed Mr. Atkinson as follows :—"Sir, if you have
not else decency to sit down and keep yourself quiet, 1
alsall order .you out of Court, in custody if nevestary."
The CHAIRMA, in addressing the Bury, -teed that in
the whole course of his experience be bet', never area
a case brought forward tinder 'eittUrnstaneet more re-
volting and disgusting that the present. It was the
grossest mockery to aYappose that it had been brought
forward front att'y desire to benefit the neighbourhood.
He did lull think the Counsel for the defence had gone
t" r.•:.r in stating that all the parties concerned
"a getting up this prosecution were actuated by any
hut pure motives. The Learned Chairman then put
it to the Jury if they could believe the monstrous story
told by the saltness Mesnil, especially after what had
come out on his cross-examination.] He thought the evi-
dence of the other witnesses was scarcely sufficient to
prove the house a disorderly house. The Jury with.
out hesitation returned a verdict of Not Guilty,
of Carey-
The CHAIRMAN--That is by far the safer verdict in
such a case as the present.

To-day holders of Free Trade Tea displayed firm-
ness, and buyers were desirous to operate in Congou,
which met with a good demand by private contract
at an advance on the rates of yesterday of ,I2-d per lb;
the lower sorts are still the most in request ; or-

RUM, BRANDY, AND- fIoLLANDs.-There has been a
much better demand for Jamaica Bum this week, and
large purchases have been made by the home trade ;
several parcels have been taken for export, principally
to Gerffianyo and full rates have been paid ;
the sales have amounted to 550 puns 28 to 30

sparingly, only 100 puns have been . sold at is 4d to is

this day week. Brandy buyers have been compelled to
pay rather higher rates for fine old descriptions, the sup-
ply of which has become scanty.
OILS.-There has been less z.i,mand for common Fish
Oils this week, and but a small amount of business has
been transacted either for home consumption or
export. Southern has brought full rates., but other
kinds are rather lower. Pale Seal has bees. sell-
ing at 361 10s, Cod 281 per tun. The arrivals
have again been small. Sperm has been taken
sparingly, and prices are rather lower ; 931 is the value
of first quality. Linseed Oil was in good request in the
early part of week, at 32s 9d, but during the last
two days the market has been inactive, and prices
have fallen to 32. Rape Oil is held firmly, and
a fair business has been done ; Pale has fetched
545, and Brown 535. Palm is dull of sale, first
sort at 331. The small stock of Olive caused holders to

ask high rates, but the operations have been upon a
small scale only. The operations in Cocoa Nut Oil have
been upon a small scale only, and rather lower rates
have been submitted to : at public sale 42 pipes 142 hhds
35 butts went at 39s 6d to 41s for good quality.
TALLOW.—lmporters of Russian Tallow have been
less disposed to realise this week, and prices have under-
gone little variation ; but the market has been in a dull
state, and on the spot but a small amount of business
has been transacted, the trade continuing to pur-
chase barely ample for their immediate wants ; this
may be principally ascribed to the large ship-
ments making at St. Potersburgh, 47s to 47s 3d

aPpear that a Select Committee of the House of
Commons, appointed in 1880, for the purpose of ex-
amining into the affairs of the rattail made a Report,
wherein they recommended that a further advance
of public money to the amount of 00,0001 should be
made, for the purpose of tOrtipleting and finishing
it properly and effectually, so as to render it avail-
able for the purposes for which it was originally in-
tended, giving it its their opinion, that inasmuch as a
vast sum of money 64 already been expended on the
concern, which, though at present unproductive, in a
pecuniary point of view, had still, to a certain extent,
been beneficial to the country through which it passed ;
and as destroying the works, filling up tl:o canal, or.
abandoning the undertaking altogether, must be at-
t'nded with a further expense for the purpose of making
.1• t ~.., :. • 3 -.!..., which expense

would amount to as much as would put the canal in
good working condition and repair, they felt that the
choice left theta was only one of two positive evils, either
of which must be attended with an equal outlay, and
t that, therefore, it was not advisable to sink the money:
I&ready expended and put up with the dead loss ; but
rather, by expending the same money in rendering the
canal more easily navigable, and more adapted to the
Ipurposes of cpmmerce,to take the chance which, though
remote, might yet by possibility render the undertaking
sufficiently productive to pay its own expenses, and thus
leave it, if not a positive benefit to the present genera-
tion, in a commercial point of view, at least a gigantic
monument to posterity of British industry, ingenuity,
and taletit.
- In order to account for the enormous but fruitless '
outlay of the public money, which, in the present in-
stance, has already exceeded 1,000,0001. sterling, with-

•
out including the 200,000/. above-mentioned, it will be i
necessary to go back into the origin of this undertakiog,
and to trace the causes which have led to this Linear,-
ettsful result.
It would appear that, in the year 1303, France hav-
ing, by successive aggression!, arrayed the whole of
Europe, and more especielly the great northern Powers,
against her great maritime rival, and there being no
naval station of any consequence in the north of Eng-
land, the whole coe6t of Seutland, or the northwest of
Ireland, the enemy had it in his power to annoy this
part•of the country from the North Sea, by passing
round the Orkney Islands, whereby the commerce of a
considerable portion of the United Kingdom frequently
suffered great and serious losses. This circumstance,
and the idea of affording employment to the inhabitant
of the highlands of Scotland, who at that time were in
great distress, and were rapidly emigrating from home,
were much pressed on the attention of the Government
of that day, and caused the subject to he taken into
serious corsideration, and enlarged views were developed
by describing the singular valley called the Great Glen
of Scotland, which, commencieg between the promon-
tory'. of Burg Head in E:gin and Cromarty, passes
through a succession of sea inlets and fresh-water lakes
to the southern extremity of Cantyre, for a distance of
200 miles, and in nearly a straight direction between
the Naze of Norway and the north of Ireland, and
which, it was alleged, afforded great facilities for inter-
nal navigation, t was said that the whole of this ex-
tensive valley, with the exception of 22 miles, being oc-
cupied by navigable waters, and the excepted space by
a navigable canal, would save upwards of 500 wiles of
dangerous navigation.
With these views the Caledonian Canal was orig:ne
ally undertaken ; but though there can be no doubt
that the natural features of the country suggested the
plan, yet it is doubtful whether it would ever have been
entertained but for the distressed state of the Highland
population, which it was an object to relieve, by afford-
ing them employment, and this being best attained by
extensive public works, was the immediate cause which
led to the adoption o! the scheme.
Accordingly, Telford was employed to examine the
line of country indicated, and having testified to its
practicability he was alone employed to carry the dc-
sign into execution, agreeably to a plan he had fur-
nished.

By this plan it was proposed to form a canal Im-ge
enough to almit of the navigation of a 32-gun frigate
throughout its whole length, and tko estimated cost of
the work in questio❑ was fixed by him at an amount of
350,0001. This estimate was subsequently increased
to 474,5001., but which latter sum fell very far short of
the real expense incurred in the undertaking. This
singular difference between the estimate and the real
u:st was said to arise from the fact, that subsequently
to the estimate being given in a serious rise had taken
place, as well in the value of timber as in the cost of
labour (consequent on the rise in the price of provi-
sions), and something must also be attributed to the
want of experience in estimating the cost of works of
such a gigantic nature ; front these causes, and from
other unforeseen difficulties, the canal was not opened
to the public until many years had elapsed from the
ti;•lc of its commencement. .

In_ the meauwhile, and during the period wherein
these works were going forward, the enormous inaccu-
racy of the estimates became e‘ery day more apparent,
and much opposition was manifested in various quar-
ters to any furl her advance of the public money towards
carrying out the objects of the scheme ; under these
circumstances, and finding increased difficulty in raising
the supplies necessary to complete the work, the Com-
miisioners determined to open the canal to the public in
its unfinished state, and accordingly in 1822 the canal,
though only partly completed, was opened to the pub.
lie, and in which state it has remained up to this time.
The consequences of -this premature opening led to
numerous accidents and misfortunes, and to frequent
interruptions of the navigation.
Up to the time of opening the canal the expenses of
its construction had amounted to the enormous sum of
905,`2581, which amount had in May, 1839, been in-
creased to 1,023,6281., exclusive of a debt to the Bank
of Scotland of 39,146/.
From the very first hour of its being opened to the
public, the canal, in a pecuniary sense, has been a
losing concern, never having paid even the expenses of
keeping it in rep.air, much less leaving any surplus
available to the liquidation of its debts. On the con-
trary, the Commissioners have been compelled every
y ear to make application to the Bank of Scotland for
advances necessary to complete repairs imperatively
called for ; neither has the traffic upon the canal
been such as to encourage the idea of its ever being,
at least as at present constituted, a very successful
undertaking.
In the meantime, the works of the undertaking seem
to have been gradually deteriorated until the latter end
of the year 1837, when a serious accident occurred to
the lock at Fort Augustus, and this being folloWed by
other extensive damage, information was forwarded of
the state of things to the Lorda of the Treasury, and
their attention was drawn to the bad state of the canal
generally, znd to the danger to be apprehended to the
large district or the neighbouring country from the de-
fectes condition of ,:any portions of the works, more
especiaily the Gairlochy
Accordingly Mr. Walker, the engineer, was directed
'•v the Treasury to proceed to the
-triot, and to aster
tain uz nature and extent of the dame "e sustained,
with which directions he complied, and fur, her gave
instructions for aping what was then immediate)," CC-

ccssary.
In the year following a Committee of the House of
Commons was constituted for the purpose of hearing
evidence on the subject of the canal, and Mr. Walker
and Mr. May, the resident engineer, attended and tes-
tified to the state of the works.
From the evidence it appeared that much danger was
to be apprehended to the works themselves, and also to
the country adjacent, as well as to the lives and pro-
perty of individual inhabitants resident in the neigh-
bourhood of Gairlochy. It was stated that at this
lock the waters of Loch Lochie, which extend over a
surface of 6,000 acres, had been dammed many feet
above their natural level, and that they were supported
at that height by only one pair of gates, on the break-
ing of which the outpouring water on the adjoining
country would occasion such a loss of life and property
that no time ought to be lost in guarding against such
an occurrence. It further appeared that other parts of
the works were in an exceedingly had state, and were
hourly becoming worse.
Upon being questioned as to the reason of the canal
not being used by shipping, these gentlemen stated that
the objection to the carrel, on the part of the masters
and owners of craft, arose 'from the uncertainty of
water, and from the want of steam-tugr, as it would
be impossible to form towing,paths on the berdets o.
the lake.
Upon being pressed to state what sum would be re-
quired to put the canal in a proper and efficient work-
ing state, inclusive of Everything, he estimated the
amount to be required for that purpose to be 200,0001.
mote, and advised that course to be adopted, in prefer-
ence to abandoning the crenal altogether, as be stated,
that, in the event of that course being adopted, the
expense of fence-works, &c., necessary to prevent the
country from being overflowed, would be as great as
the expense of repairing, and this without the possi-
bility of a return, not to mention the claims of parties
for compensation, &re
After bearing other evidence to the same effect from
other pa: ties the Committees became of opinion that
the proposition .r.nr abandoning the canal altogether was
one that ought not to be entertained, and alter making
numerous inquiries with the object of ascertaining
whether any increase of businee would be likely to.
e canal could be

obtained, and having ascertained that po.. ~
ared
thus the dangerous and tedious navigation of :nfl
Frith might be avoided, they resolved, that the navisll"
tion of the canal was insecure ; that the state of the
canal should be immediately attended to, not only as
regarded the preservation of the work, but also es re-
feting to the security of life and property in the districts
through which the canal passed ; that they could not
recommend the abandonment or shutting up the canal,
and that the insufficiency of water, the imperfect execu-
tion o.e:he works, and the ab'ence of steam-tugs, had
ment of the benefits to commerce
prevented the r:: 71°P
that much benefit would

;:he assistance of
steam-tugs were afforded, as recomn.!' ded
Walker t and for these purposes they ret: anted""
that a futther sum of 200,0001. should be aa.
by Government.
Subsequently to this Report it appears that certain
propositions had been made to carry the reeommen-
datione of the Committee into effect by private eater •
prise, by which means the necessity of application to
Parliament for more money would be obviated, and this
great national work rendered more available to the in-
terests of the country without the further expenditure
of public money.
In consequence of this preposition the Committee
re-assembled and resolved that such arrangement would
be desirable under certain conditions, which were, that
the Treasury should grant a lease of the canal and its
appurtenances to the adventurers for a term of 99
....vs. gratis ; that the Company, before the execution
.1, applicatrinird pay 4

count of the canal ; that the works recommet.-
W,lker should be executed, and should afterwards be
kept in repair, and that the Company should relieve
the Treasury and the Commissioners of the canal from
all responsibility from accidents and damage, and should,
at the expiry of the time, leave it in good repair.
In the event of these terms not being acceded to,
the Committee recommend the matter to be again left
in the hands of the Commissioners as before.

It would appear, by the Repo;i now under consider-
atioe, thot Government were unable to offeot,a trans-
fer of the C,aledon,iAn Canal upon the terms suggested
by tht; SMeet Committe of the House of Commons,
