LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.
The royal mail steam-ship Canada, Capt. W. J. C.
Lang, arrived to-night frcni Boston and Halifax,
with adviees from New York to the 27th ult.; Bi,stoir
to the 28th ; and Halifax to the 30th ult.
The Canada brought 84 passengers and £250 in
specie. On her passage the Canada passed 11.M.5.
Gorgon, engaged in laying the Atlantic Telegraph
cable ; the Niagara, hence for Boston ; and the
Persia, hence for New York.
The screw steam-ship Glasgow, from the Clyde,
arrived at New York on the 24th ; and the U.S.
mail-steamer Northern Light, of the Vanderbilt
line, on the 26th, from Southampton.
The Europa was off Cape Race on the 26th.
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald, writing on the 25th of July, says :
" Our Governinent begins to realise the importance of
questions, heretofore thought but little of, relating to the
rights and claims of the Hudson's Bay Company on the
Pacific side of the continent.
" Unless a wise and liberal policy be pursued by the
British with regard to miners in the Fraser River country,
there may be collisions that would lead to isibiimational
difficulties. The American miners will soon learn, if they
have not already, that neither Governor Douglas nor the
Hudson's Bay Cowan hare any authority over mines en
this continent. The colonial governor of Vancouver's
Island (Douglas) has uo authority beyond what his
commission confers. He has no right of jurisdiction,
and has never claimed it before, over the mainland or any
other territory than Vancouver's Island, in the capacity of
governor, and except as chief factor of the Hudson's Bay
Company. Neither the company nor 'he, as its chief fatter,
have any right ander (heir charter except the right or pri-
vilege of trading with the Indians. They have no possessory
right over the mines or approaches to mines, arid therefore
the imposition of taxes or license fees by either Governor
Douglas or the company is a usurpation of authority. All
mines belong to the Crown of England ; but it has been de-
cided by British authorities in Australia that placers' are
not mines in the meaning of the enactment ceding all mines
to the Crown, that gold washing and working for gold on
the surface is not mining."
Again, writing on the 20th, the correspondent
states:—

NORTH CHESHIRE ELECTION.
-

tin Satur.lay rain last, the election (.f. Mr. Wilhrahmn
E2enen, of Tat tr n Hall, Rostherne, near Bowdrn, as t'..e
tusruber for North Cheshire, in the place of 1,1; fother, sac,
has ace- pted the Chiltern hundreds, took place in the Se-
sious House, Ktlu•sford, hi tie pretence of a con4ilerable

The nrit Laving been read for Vte cleelion of a knight to
serve in the present Parliament for the northern division of

the county,
The HIGH SHERIFF (Mr. G. H. Wilbraham) asked if
any elector had a candidate to propose, whereupon
Mr. T. W. TATTON strod forward, and said lie begged
to nominate, as a fit and proper person to represent the
northern division of the county of Chester in Parliament,
Mr. Wilbraham Egerton, of Tattoo Park, Rostherne.
(Hear.) He assured them that be addressed them on the
present occasion, under the belief that if they elected the
gentleman he had nominated he would prove to be alike an
honour to them and himself in the House of Parliament.
He was sure they woule give him their sympathies and
sorrow for the loss of Mr. Tattoo Egerton's (the father) long
services in Parliament. (Cheers.) No county member had
ever served his constituents with more honour to himself
or better than Mr. Egerton had done for the past 26 years.
(Loud cheers.) He must now tell them why they. had as-
sembled there that day. (Cheers.) It was not because the
father of the present candidate and his grandfather served
their (the elec'ors') interests so long and so well—although
he might claim their support on these grounds—but it was
becau c he (Mr. Tatton) felt a strong conviction that if they
returned him ,to :serve their interests iu Parliament he
would ever do his duty in that capacity. (Hear, hear,
and cheers.) He would bestow impartially that
constant attention, as their member, upon every
subject, whether a commercial, manufacturing, or agricul-
tural one. (Cheers.) They would find him supporting not
the old stand-still Toryism, but the more liberal and mo-
dern Conservatism, which recognised the great principle of
progress with preservation. (Hear, hear.) And it was
above all, because he felt satisfied that Mr. Egerton was
warmly attached to the Church of England and the Throne ;
and at the same time lie respected the opinions of others.
These were a few of the grounds on which he begged to re-
commend Mr. Egerton as a fit and proper person to fin the
place .of his father as their representative iu Parliament, and
he could assure them that he had the fullest confidence in
the belief that he would prove himself to be in every way an
honour to them, and worthy of their support. (Loud ap-

plause.)
Mr. THOS. WARDLE, of Macclesfield, a manufacturer, se•
conded the nomination. He had not the advantage of being
able to call their attention to the past services of Mr. Egerton.
He was simply a young man who had not yet had an op-
portunity (if serving them, and as such he aripeared before
them that day. (Cheers.) Ills age, lieweverv, would be no
disadvantage with regard to his claims upon them for their
support ; indeed, he could remember the time when, though
years ago, his father appeared before them under similar
circumstances, and their expectations from him had been
fully realised in every respect. (Cheers.) Mr. Egerton,
from his position in life, from his intelligence, from his
education, and above all foe_ the willingness with which he
appeared before them that day and offered them his services,
commanded their warmest acknowledgments and support.
(Hear, and cheers.) He would alike attend to the agricul-
tural and commercial interests—not to the former only
as some might suppose. Mr. Tatton, who represented oa
that occasion the lauded interest, bad on these grounds
been selected to nominate Mr. Egerton, while he (Mr.
Wardle) representing the commercial interest on the other
band, had been selected to second the nomination. (Hear.)
He would not be doing justice to his own feelings if he did
not in the presence of the electors take that opportunity of
publicly thank'ne Mr. Tattoo Egerton for his 26 years' ser-
vice?, and of expressing their regret at the cause of his
retirement into private Lfe. (Hear, and cheers.)
No other candidate being nominated, the High Sheriff
declared Mr. Wilbraham Egerton duly elected. After hav-
ing been girt with a sword by command of the Sheriff,
Mr. WILBRAHAM EGERTON stsod forward and thanked
the electors for the honour they bad just conferred upon
him, the highest honour to which he ever aspired, viz., the
representation of that division of the county of Chester in
Parliament. Be Loped to follow in the footsteps of his
father and grandfather, and to never render himself un-
worthy of the trust and confidence so gentrously reposed lu
him, as witnessed by his election. (Cheers.) He did not in
the present state cf parties go to Parliament pledged to
any, or to follow a particular leader; but as a Conservative
he should give his support to the present Government, as
he believed its plicy was to maintain peace, witk a due
regard to our nationa honour, with all countries, sad that
it was the best Government for the country. (Cheers.)
From their first taking the reins of office they enlisted in
their favour, and got the support of (in consequence of their
policy) seen who, under other circumstances, would
have opposed them. When the present Government
took office they found our relations with France in a
highly critical state, and imperilled by the hostile
feeling which existed anionest the French peop'e against
this country, but the conciliatory and yet firm oae of the
despatch of Lord Malmeshury not only removed those feel.
hus in spite of the warlike disposition of a portion of the
press of both countries, but succeet•led in maintaining Bret
alliance, which had still been further cemented by the
Queen's recent visit to France. (Loud cheers.) The pre-
sent Government had also settled the differences that bad so
long existed between us and Naples. If the late Govern-
ment had not recalled oar Minister from Naples the two
British engineers would never have been condemned to
suffer for months as they had done. (Hear, Ilea-.) There
was much delay by the Inc Government with respect to the
engineers' claims for compensalon, but it was not so with the
present Government, who had obtained for them c unplete
and satisfactory remunera: ion. (Cheers.) If the present Go-
vernment maintained the domestic policy in the same way
they were doing their foreign policy, it should have his su ppor t.
He thought the government of India, w Merl had been se long
in the hands of the East India Company, had been advan-
tageously removed by being placed under that of the Crown
of this country. It would tend to greater facilities of com-
munication between the two Governments of this country
and India. When this unfortunate rebellion should be put
down, the sultjects of the revenue, the finances, the land
tenme, the missionaries, and time question as to how far
natives %vete able to take part in the government of that
country, would be brought under the notice of Perliament.
Ile now came to the ques'ion of the promised Reform Bill
which Lord Derby had promised to bring forward in the next
session of Parliament. He (Mr. Eget ton) did not, for one,
think that at tie plc rent tine there was much demand for
Reform ; however, as a bid was to be brought in by Lord
Derby, he was convinced it would not be with a view to
benefit any p articular class. (Hear.) Ile could not tell
whet it would be in detail, but it would, no doubt,
give a fair share of representation to all classes,
and be ( Mr. E rton) would promise them that
that bill should have his best attention and considera-
tion. With regard to the present statet:f the law t especting
church rates, it was In a most unsatisfactory state—a state
in which it could not long remain. He would net consent
to the abolition of these rates, however, wi Lout compensa-
tion—(hear, hear)—as he regarded church rates in the light
of a charge upon the laud as touch as the tithe and landtax.
(Cheers.) Besides, if there were no church rates, what
would become of the fabrics of the churches? Why, they
would fall into ruin and decay. Notwithstanding that he
would retain these rates, he would exonerate those from
peeing them who might claim to be so exonera'ed upon
conscientious and religious grouuils. (Hear, hear.) Ile
theught the duty of every Government was to carry on the
affairs of the country with a due reeatd to economy, and
with a view to reduce the taxa' ion as much as possible; but
he would not, in doing so, cripple the military and 'revel
p 'wets. (Hear, hear.) 'We should always take cute to
have a sufficient Channel fleet, that we might be beyond the
fear of any foreign invasion. (Applause.) lie would ever
be ready to support any measure that might be brought
hefure Parliament for the bette. iog and amelioration of the
condition of the lower classes. (Hear.) Ile should be
oppose d to any and every system of education which did not
comhice religious with secular instruction. Having men-
tioned the principal topics of the day, and having stated his
opinion thereon, he begged to thank them for the confidence
and trust they had reposed in him in returning him as their
representative and not as their delegate. (Cheers.) Aud
whenever he should resign that trust into their hands he
should do it with the conscientious conviction that he bad
served them faithfully and devoted his best energies to their
service. (Loud applause.)
Mr. TATTON EGERTON, the Ike member, then propose
a vote of thanks to the High Sheriff for presiding, and con-
d
tinued by slating that ho (Mr. Egerton) was anxious to
express to the electors his cordial thanks for the many
kindnesses he had received at their bands and from all par-
ties during the 26 years he had had the honour of represent-
ing them in Parliament. (Cheers.) Ile had passed the
best period of his life in their services, end if they had never
in any other way done. him honour they had that day amply
rewarded those labours and troubles he might have experi-
enced in their service by electing his son to succeed him as
their representative. (Hear.) lie now was about to retire
into private life, end he again said they (the electors) had
paid him the bighe,t compliment that could possibly be paid
to a public ester/ant. (Cheers.) He trusted his son would
serve them as faithfully and honestly as he had done, and
now he begged to bid them a last farewell. (Loud cheets.)
Mr. WILBIt &Halt EGERTON seconded the vote of
thanks.
After which Mr. P. J. L. BROOKE, of Mere Hall, said be
begged to Intimate that as Mr. Cornwall Legit, the other
metnlYT, never attended to his duties in Parliament, be
should oppose his next election.
The pre ceedings terminated with three cheers for the new
member and three elect it for the Queen.

" Toe despatch of the Eurepean news on the debate in
Parliament with regard to the right of search► question, and
the assurances of Gen. Cass to Lord Napier, does not state
the case properly. All that Gen. Cass said to Lord Napier
in reply to the British Minister's proposition that the two
Governments should enter into a negotiation for the pur-
pose of establishing some rue for the verification or deter-
mining the nationality of vessels at sea, was, that our
government would consider any proposition received from
the British Government, but had none to offer, and doub'ed
if any plan could be adopted that would not be subjefA to
great objections and greater evils than those which the
British Government expected to prevent. Toe language of
Gen. Cass does not justify the colour said to have been given
in Parliament to this question."
From Washington we learn that the eight new
sloops of war, for which appropriations were made at
the recent session of Congress, will be constructed at
the folloWing places :—One at Pensacola, one at
Norfolk, one at Kittery, Maine ; one at San
Francisco (side wheel, and to draw three or four feet
of water); two at Philadelphia, and two at New
York.

From Utah we have news to the 23d. Everything
was quiet in the Territory, and the Mormons were
returning to their homes. Brigham Young and the
heads of the Mormon church had returned to Salt
Lake Ci'y. Reports of gold deposits in the vicinity
of St. Varian's Fort were made by some of the
returning teamsters, but not much credit was given
them. Gen. Johnston had passed through the city,
and encamped 30 miles beyond, Brigham Young
was anxious to be tried for treason, provided the
jury should consist of Mormons only.
The Army Department at Washington have re-
ceived the general order of Gen. Johnston, dated
June 25, to the army on entering Salt Lake City.
The army was to enter the city on the 26th, and it
was ordered that no one should leave the ranks, that
none should trespass on the fields, and that good
order should be maintained.
Advices from Fort Leavenworth inform us that
Gen. Harry.,y had been overtaken 15 miles east of the
crossing of the south fork of the Platte, on the Sth
inst. The general intended going to Ash Hollow to
hold a conference with the Cheyenne Indians, who
were desirous of renewing their assurances of friend-
ship for the whites. Capt. Simpson, bearing orders
countermanding the advance of a portion of the re-
inforcements, was at Fort Kearny on the 11th.
Leavenworth advices to the 23d state that an ex-
press had arrived from Gen. Harney's head-quarters,
with instructions as to the disposition of the forces in
Utah.

necessary to turn the boat some difficulty was found in
bringing round the sails, in consequence of stiffness in the
ropes. The boat capsised, and all the party were thrown
10.0 the water; Two of the boatmen at once went down;
the other three succeeded in getting hold of the boat, to
which they clung for nearly two hours. Mr. Lavington at
length dropped off from exhaustion and was drowned. Scoff
after a schooner came by, and picked up Mr. Berryman and
the remaining boatman. I3otb are recovering.
