def. uru-street, and living at 55, Star-street, said that
"dant was out of work the greater part of last

winter, and he (witness) took him into his house from
pure charity, and lodged him. He observed, how-
ever, that the prisoner and his wife appeared rather
familiar, and he (witness) ordered him to leave the
house. Shortly after his Wife absconded, and he sub-
sequently ascertained that she was living with the
prisoner. She soon however, got tired of the
infamous connexion, and witness, at his master's
intercession, and on her promise of amendment,
took her back again. Since that time the prisoner has
been in the habit of calling at witness's house and
annoying him. He also renewed his former attentions
to witness's wife, and she left a second time, and was
now living with her paramour in 55, Devonshire-
street. Yesterday evening the prisoner came to his
house, and created a disturbance, calling him an old
rogue, and threatening to knock his head off.
Mr. RAWLINSON fined the prisoner 405., and ordered
him to enter into recognisances of 201. to keep the
peace for six months.

UNION HALL.—(THIS DAY.)
Two men, named John Lowden and James Murphy,
one a carpenter, and the other a corn-porter, were
charged with committing an outrageous assault on
policeman 156 M division.
The policeman while on duty the preceding night,
in Bermondsey, went up to the defendants, who were
making a noise outside the door of a public house, and
requested them to go away. Instead, however, of
doing so, they commenced an attack on the policeman,
knocked him down, and kicked him in the most brutal
manner while he was down, and it was sworn that
had not two other policemen come up at the moment,
the man's life would probably have been sacrificed.
Mr. COTTINGHAM, instead of inflicting a fine on the
defendants, committed them forthwith for one month
each to Brixton gaol.

MONEY and COMMEItCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool was dull yes-
terday, the sales being only 3,500 bales, at previous
quotations, viz. :-500 Surats, at 50. to 40. ; 80
Pernams, at bid. to 7d. ; 60 Maranhams, at 50. to
6d. ; 50 Bahias, at 61d. ; 80 Smyrnas, at 50. • and
2,730 bales American at 4d. to 50. per lb.—ln the
Railway Share market there was a good demand for
Liverpool and Manchester, but very little doing in
any others. Edinburgh and Glasgow were 47 ; Great
Western Halves, 61 ; Liverpool and Manchester, 180 ;
Birmingham New, 304 ; Brighton, 35+ ; South
Western, 59i ; and South Eastern New, 174.
Advices have come to hand from Sydney to the
18th of June, which are of a more satisfactory
character than those received for some time past. The
number of vessels arriving from England was ex-
ceedingly limited, and this had assisted the markets
for imported goods, and especially for manu-
factures, of which there had been such a glut.
The prices of manufactures were generally higher.
Wheat and Flour were a150..-looking up, the latter
being at 20s. to 21s. for fine. In Tea and Sugar there
had been a large business done.
It is highly satisfactory to notice the fact of the
large number of immigrants who reached Sydney last
year, amounting to 23,200 persons, having all found
ready employment generally within ten days of their
landing, and their rapid distribution is cited as a
proof of the ability of the country to sup-
port a steady and important influx of emi-
grants. There is, however, another circumstance which
it is particularly desirable should be extensively made
known throughout the United Kingdom. For male
persons of a superior description, particularly com-
mercial clerks and overseers, there is no demand, and
such persons are subjected to great privations, as well
as to great disappointment, on their arrival. There
is generally a superabundance of these.
In the official report of the Colonial Government
upon the subject of immigration, it is stated that the
number of persons arrived out ast year was 23,200,
of whom 19,523 were sent out under the bounty
system. This gave partial employment to 101 ships
of 36,170 tons. In 1840 only 7,000 persons arrived out.
From the Mauritius we have papers of August 18,
and the most interesting item of news is the fact of
the Legislative Assemly having voted a loan of
60,0001. from the Government treasury to the colony,
on the security of the banks, chiefly we infer,
for the promotion of immigration. The repayments
are to be made monthly, by bills drawn on England.
As respects the immigration of the Hill Coolies from
India, it had been decided that the Governor of India
should appoint the protectors to reside in the Mau-
ritius, and superintend the kind treatment of the

immigrants.
Stocks are quiet, but steady. The only feature is
another small purchase by the Commissioner. Con-
sols are 94 to 94f, both for Money and the 24th inst.
Exchequer Bills are 58s. to 60s. premium. New
Three-and-a-Half per Cents. have been a shade
loWer, being now 1014 to 1014. Bank Stock has
receded to 172 i and 1714 ; and India Stock is not
quite so buoyant at •261 f to 261.
In the Foreign Market business has been chiefly
limited to the settlement of the Account, which is
not of magnitude. Mexican Bonds are still rather
fiat at 324 to 33 ; Brazilian keep firm at 65 ; Belgian
at 102 ; and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents at 524
to 524. Portuguese New Five per Cents. have
touched 384 4, but the Converted are not higher than
324 I. Spanish Actives are 18, and the Thre per
Cents. 22.
In Railway Shares there have not been half a dozen
bargains, and it is difficult to give the tone of the
market, which seems, however,' pretty steady.

LOSS OF THE RELIANCE
EAST INDI.kMAN.

In the Evening Edition of The Stan of yesterday we
gave an account of the melancl -2.01 y wreck of the
Reliance, East Indiaman, off the coast of Boulogne,
in which it was stated that only- ten persons were
saved. We regret to add that, ace ording to the return
made to Lloyd's, only six persoi is out of 116 were
saved. We have received no p articulars respecting
this melancholy event, but it is extremely probable
that the vessel had come up the Channel without a
pilot owing to the violence of the storm on Saturday
night, and the Captain being ignorant of the
dangerous coast had kept near the French land fer
shelter, as the wind was from the south-west, and ran
the vessel upon a reef of rocks, which extends for
several miles to the north-east of Boulogne. On these
rocks the Amphitrite, a convict ship, was lost eight
years ago, when all on board, with the exception of
one or two seamen, were lost. No blame can be at-
tached to the French authorities at Boulogne for not
rendering assistance, as the coast is so dangerous, and
the wind blowing from that quarter is so strong that
even the hardiest seaman in England would have
been deterred from going out on such an occasion to
rescue the sufferers. For three or four miles on each
side of Boulogne there are sunken, rocks, and even at
low water they are hardly perceptible. The Captain
of the Reliance evidently was una ware of the danger-
ous coast, for, the wind coming from a contrary di-
rection, he was not compelled to steer in that direc-
tion. The vessel was homeward bound with a cargo
of 20,000 chests of tea. But what is the value of this
cargo, or the loss to the. insurance offices, compared
with the distress which this dreadful calamity must
spread over the country ? One hundred and ten per-
sons have perished, and among them, no doubt, are
many officers on leave of absence, or adventurers, who
had made their fortune in India, and when within
sight of their native land, and anxiously looking for-
ward to a happy meeting with their old friends, have
thus miserably perished.

ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS RECEIVED
' THIS DAY.

The following letters have been received at Lloyd's,
from their agent at
Boulogne, Sur Hier, Nov. 12, 1842.
To William Dobson, Esq., Secretary, Lloyd's.
Sir,—lt is our painful duty to apprise you of the
total loss of the Reliance, 1,500 tons burthen, Thomas
Green, Commander, which vessel came on the coast
of Merlemont last night, and went to pieces this morn-
ing : she left Canton on the 7th May, with a cargo of
teas. We regret to add that only about eight or ten
persons out of 122, composing the crew and passengers,
have been saved. The, last express we received from
the coast does not give much information respecting
the survivors ; we only know that the ship's carpenter
is saved, and it is from him that the ship's name was
ascertained. The other survivors are men of colour.
The English Consll has just gone round to the spot.
The number of persons on board was-75 Englishmen,
27 Chinese, and 20 Dutchmen ; total 122.

Nov. 13.—8 y advices just received from the
coast we are informed that the names of the
survivors are Robert Dixon, the carpenter, W.
O'Neill, of Kingstown, Ireland, Johan Anderson,
of Laurvig, Norway—Charles Butts, of Dantzic, and
three Malays. The body of Captain Green has been
identified by the carpenter, also that of the fourth
mate Griffin, and a seaman. Their remains will be
conveyed here, where they will receive the rites of
Christian burial. Captain Tucker, late Commander
of her Majesty's ship Iris, is among the drowned.
Everything has been done for the benefit of the
owners of the vessel. The services received from the
horse soldiers is in every way efficient.—We are, &c.,
(Signed) A. ADAMS, and CO.
[We understand that Griffin, who was the fourth
mate, would have succeeded to a property of 10,0001.
by the dm we of his mother. She had for some
time been anxiously looking for his arrival, but
died about eight days ago. One of the survivors
states that Captain Green, who was an experi-
enced seaman, mistook the French lights on the
coast for some others, as one of them had been changed
since he left England, about twelve months ago.]

to 4l lOs ; clover hay, 4/ lOs to 51 15s ; oat straw,
1/ 16s to 1/ 18s; wheat straw, 1/ 18s to 2/ per load.
Supply good, and trade dull, at, in some instances,
drooping currencies.
COLONIAL.

SUGAR.--The market for British Plantation con-
tinues heavy, barely 500 hhds. having found buyers,
inclusive of those by auction, and former prices were
scarcely supported. The public sales have contained
138 casks 166 barrels St. Lucia, 4,000 bags Bengal,
423 hhds Porto Rico, and 81 baskets Java. The
greater part of the St. Lucia was sold, but went
off without spirit at 55s 6d to 64s Gd for
good brown to fine greyish yellow, being in
some instances cheaper. Nearly the whole of the
Bengal was offered in bond, and mostly taken in at a
decline of fully is and 2s, the trade refusing to pur-
chase even at that reduction ; a small portion sold
(duty paid) brought comparatively higher rates.
The Java found ready buyers (for export) at 18s
to 18s 6d for low and mid yellow of mid quality,
which is the extreme value. Privately no trans-
actions have taken place worth reporting, with
the exception of 60 chests brown and yel-
low Pernambuco, which have been sold at 17s,
and 400 bags ord brown Batavia at 15s to 15s 6d,
which are again rather higher prices. The quantity
of British Plantation landed last week in the East and
West India Docks, was 352 hhds, 13 tierces, 4 bar-
rels, and there were taken for home consumption
1,471 hhds, 155 tierces, 264 barrels. The stock in the
same places is 16,452 hhd5,2,009 tierces' 1,775 barrels.
COFFEE.-907 bags Ceylon, and 597 bags East
India at auction were all taken in (with the exception
of about 100 bags ord Ceylonjwhich sold at 535), good
ord mixed Batavia at 31s 6d, and very ord ditto at
21s to 255.

ITEA.—There is more firmness in this market,
owing to the large quantity lost on board the Reli-
ance off Boulogne. The public sales have been
postponed till the 21st inst.,
Ruat.—The quantity landed last week at the East
and West India Docks was 362 puns 262 hhds ; there
were taken for home consumption 282 puns 35 hhds,
and exported 96 puns 34 hhds. The stock in the same
places is 14,692 puns 3,682 hhds.
RICE.-1,357 bags and 1,062 packets Bengal were
offered by auction ; the bags were disposed of at
10s 6d, two lots lls for mid and good white ; the
packets were taken in above the value, viz., at 11s 6d
for good mid white.
TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is dull, and prices are barely
supported. The quotation is now about 48s 3d to
48s 6d per cwt on the spot. Town is 51s 6d per cwt.
COTTON is firm, sales 500 bales.
PROVISIONS.—Bacon is 3s. to 4s. lower, and Butter
is heavy.

MARRIAGE.—On Tuesday, the 15th, at Braunston,
Northamptonshire, by the Rev. J. Jenkins, Lieutenant
Henry Arnold, 161., son of George Henry Arnold,
Esq., of Ashby Lodge, to Catherine, second daughter
of It. Lambe, Esq., of Bragborough, in the same
county.
WooLwicu, Nov. 14.—The Dee, steam troop-
ship, Master Commander Thomas Driver (and not
Master Commander Thomas Laen, as was inadvert-
ently substituted in the last notice of this vessel),
which left Woolwich on the Ist instant, with two com-
panies of the Royal Artillery for Barbadoes, reached
Falmouth, and sailed from that port on the
10th for her destination. The Naval and
Military Gazette, of Saturday last contains the fol-
lowing under the head of Woolwich, Nov. 4:—
" This morning a Court-martial was held on board
the William and Mary Royal yacht, on a sailor of
the Dee steamer, for threatening to take the life of
one of the Lieutenants of that vessel. The prisoner was
found guilty, and sentenced to transportation for life."
The preceding paragraph is incorrect in every parti-
cular, the Dee having sailed from Woolwich three
days previous to the date given ; and it has been as •
certained from the most undoubted authority that no
Court-martial has been recently held on board of the
William and Mary royal yacht, or on board any other
vessel in the harbour of 'Woolwich. The Rhada-
manthus, steam troop-ship, Master Commander
Thomas Laen, is expected to sail from Woolwich
about the 27th inst., for the Mediterranean, and will
take out two companies of the Royal Artillery to
Corfu. Orders were received in the garrison last
night for the companies to hold themselves in readi-
ness for embarkation.

THE ARCHDUKE OF AUSTRIA.--HIS Imperial
Highness the Archduke of Austria, attended by his
suite, visited Beard's photographic portrait rooms, at
the Royal Polytechnic Institution yesterday, and
honoured Mr. Beard by sitting for his portrait. Se-
veral gentlemen of the suite also sat, and his Highness
expressed himself much pleased with the process, and
the accuracy of the likenesses.
The Marquis of Sligo, who has been alarmingly
indisposed at Westport House, is, we are happy to
hear, out of danger. His Lordship underwent a
painful operation on Thursday last, and his Lordship,
when his medical attendants left him, was doing as
well as possible.

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO
WALMER CASTLE.

WALMER, MONDAY.--Last night, about eight
o'clock, the wind shifted into the west-north-west,
and in the course of the night the sea became calm.
Her Majesty has to-day enjoyed the magnificent sight
of upwards of a hundred sail in the Downs lying at
anchor.

Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert
walked on the beach for a considerable time in the
morning, and the Royal children were taken out by
their nurses and attendants.

At twelve o'clock his Royal Highness Prince
Albert went on board the Thunderer, being steered
by Capt. Westbrook, -in his galley. His Royal
Highness was attended ,by Colonel Wylde and Dr.
Pretorious, and remained on board nearly an hour,
inspecting the beautiful arrangements of the vessel,
with which his Royal Highness expressed himself
highly delighted. His Royal Highness's visit was un-
expected, and Captain Pring and Captain Bullock,
who were ashore, immediately put off to meet the
Prince.
His Royal Highness, on landing, was saluted by Sir
William Curtis's yacht, which was anchored off the
Castle. The Government steamer, Fearless, Captain
Bullock, which is also stationed in a line with the
Thunderer, dressed her colours.

To-morrow, if the weather continues fine, it is ex-
pected his Royal Highness Prince Albert will accom-
pany Captain Bullock to the Goodwin Sands, for the
purpose of inspecting the safety beacon, erected by the
Gallant Captain, about two years ago.
This afternoon, at half-past one o'clock, her Majesty
and his Royal Highness Prince Albert, accompanied
by the Hon. Mrs. Anson, left the Castle in a carriage
and four, and proceeded to Dover Castle. Lord C.

Wellesley and -Colonel Wylde, the Equerries, were in
attendance on horseback. The Queen and the Prince
were received at the Castle by Colonel Jenkinson,
Governor, and a guard of honour, composed of the
19th Foot. The Royal party, after remaining at the
Castle upwards of three-quarters of an hour, inspect-
ing every object of interest, proceeded to Dover,
driving through the principal streets to the beach,
and returning to Walmer at a quarter past four
o'clock. Both sides of the road from the Castle to
the town were lined with people, and the streets
through which the Royal corte'e passed were densely
crowded. On going and returning her Majesty was
greeted with a right loyal and hearty welcome.
In addition to the Royal suite, Lord and Lady Ma-
hon, and Mr. and the Hon. Mrs. Anson, will have the
honour of joining the Royal dinner circle.
The following letter has been received by Mr.
Ledge; in answer to an official communication made
by him on the part of the Dover authorities, respect-
ing the receiving of an address from that port, and
also as to whether her Majesty intended to honour
Dover with a visit, during her Majesty's stay at
Walmer Castle :

" Walmer Castle, Nov. 11.
" Sir,—l have to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter of the 10th instant, and in reply beg to inform
you, that any addresses that you may wish to have
presented to her Majesty during her stay at Walmer
Castle, you will have the goodness to forward to me,
as her Majesty's visit here being entirely of a private
nature, it is not her Majesty's wish to receive any
addresses personally or publicly.
" I am not aware whether her Majesty will visit the
town of Dover or not.—l have the honour to be, Sir,
your obedient humble servant,
(Signed) " SYDNEY, Lord in Waiting.
" To G. W. Ledger, Esq., Dover."
Respecting the fate of the galley which was ob-
served from the coast suddenly to disappear, just as
she had reached the Lisbon steamer, at the time of the
heavy gale yesterday afternoon, and about which her
Majesty was most anxious in her inquiries, about
seven o'clock the welcome news arrived that every
man had been picked up, through the activity and
praise-worthy conduct of those on board the steamer.
The news was instantly conveyed to Walmer Castle.

DOVER.
FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.)
NOVEMBER 14.—filer Majesty the Queen and
Prince Albert arrived at Dover Castle at three o'clock
this afternoon, and partook of a dejeuner in the
apartments of the Lieutenant-Governor, R. H. Jen-
kinson, Esq. Afterwards they inspected the Castle,
and drove through the town, returning by the Water-
loo-crescent and the Marine Parade, escorted by our
Member (Mr. Rice) and some of the military autho-
rities. The Queen looked in excellent health and
spirits, and must have been much gratified bir the
very cordial and loyal reception she experienced from
her subjects at Dover. A Royal salute was fired
from the Western Heights as the Royal party quitted
the town.

It is understood the Prince intends hunting with
the East Kent fox hounds at Lydden to-morrow,
should the weather be favourable. _

At the Harbour Sessions on Friday much important
business was transacted. The terminus of the South
Eastern Railway was definitively settled and agreed
for. It will occupy the site between Archcliff Fort
and Townsend Battery, approaching nearly to the wet
and dry docks, and certainly no better situation could
have been found for it. The Commissioners also de-
cided on some great improvements connected with
the proposed Harbour of Refuge in the bay. They
have ordered the whole of the north side of Union-
streetc onstrutoctd
bee takenbetw between
nAt-nhe and
Yorkga,gates and
and the pre-
mises d a bridge to be
of Messrs. Latham and Co., to enable vessels
to pass direct from the outer harbour to the
Pent, which will, in case of war, form a
very fine and commodious station for steam-
boats. The outer harbour is to be greatly im-
proved and increased by the removal of the square
now occupied by the Ordnance Storekeeper, Dover
Castle Inn, and various warehouses; and Amherst
Battery and the range of buildings now occupying the
line of ground between the North Pier and the York
Hotel are also to be removed. It is generally ex-
pected that such very extensive and costly arrange-
ments would never have been decided on, had not the
Government determined to proceed with the great na-
tional work in the Bay, which is rendered so much
the more necessary from the vast improvements now
making in several of the opposite ports of France.
We have a lamentable account from Boulogne to-
day of the total loss of the ship Reliance, of London,
Capt. Green, 1,500 tons burthen. She sailed from
Canton the th May, and was totally"lost on the 11th
instant, between Etaples and Berek, a short distance
to the west of Boulogne. Out of 75 English and
41 Lascars we regret to state that seven only were
saved on a piece of the wreck.

The CHAIRMAN said that the object of the present
meeting was to receive the Report of a Sub-Commit-
tee of the Society, who had been directed by a reso-
lution of aineeting, which had been held on the 31st
October, to devise and determine upon a plan for the
future operation of ,the Anti-Corn-law party in the
metropolis. That Committee had now framed their
Report, and he trusted that it would meet the appro-
bation of the meeting.
Mr. S. SMITH, the Secretary, read as follows :
"Report of the Committee appointed by the Metro-
politan Anti-Corn-law Association, at their meeting
of October 31, 1842, by the following resolution :
--` Resolved, that in order to devise a well-digested
plan of future operations, a Committee, consisting
of Messrs. James Wilson, P. A. Taylor, Col. T.
P. Thompson, and F. Place, with power to add to
their number, be appointed to consider the best
means of promoting the objects of this Association,
and to report to a meeting specially to be called for
the purpose of conferring upon the same, on Mon-
day, 14th November next, at one o'clock precisely.'
"The subject on which your Committee has been
called upon to make a report to the general body of
their fellow members, has engaged their anxious indi-
vidual consideration during a considerable period.
" The opinion which early they had been led to
I form of the most prudent and effective system of ma-

nagement of the great question which it is the object
"of the Association to carry to a happy issue, the expe-
rience they have acquired during its progress has
ripened into conviction. In Parliament it is apparent
that monopoly has abandoned argument, and stands
simply upon its majority ; but amongst the people it
owes the toleration of its existence mainly to general
ignorance of the subject. In the Legislature the truth
is known, but not respected; in the community it is
only not respected, because it is not known. The
sense of justice which the short-sighted selfishness of
private interest has enfeebled in the_ Senate, is yet
strong in the conscience of the nation. The task we
have to accomplish is not that of inducing the
people to join in the demand to do us jus-
tice, but simply to prove to them that justice is
on our side. If the proximate cause of the con-
tinuance of the Corn-laws be the disregard of truth or
honesty on the part of the representatives of the coup-
try, the ultimate cause is unquestionably to be found
in the fact that the advocates of free .trade have not
yet produced a sufficiently general conviction of the
efficacy and necessity of abolishing the restrictive
system. And the Committee are now more than ever
satisfied that as while we fail to carry conviction of
the sound principles of our cause to the minds of the
people, we shall not succeed in compelling the Legis-
lature to abandon their present vicious policy ; so
whenever we have succeeded in forming enlightened
public opinion in favour of our views, we cannot pos-
sibly fail in compelling the concurrence of ilie Legis-
lature to the demands of a fair majority of the nation.
"As our weakness lies in the general ignorance
which prevails upon the subject of free trade, all that
is necessary to increase our strength is to increase the
knowledge of the people. As this has been our past
aim, so ought it to be our future zealous endeavour.
By this simple agency we have compelled a reluctant
confession from our opponents of the soundness of our
principles; and a vigorous perseverance in the same
policy will ultimately induce a reduction of these to
practice. We have no new method of agitation to
recommend. We have rather to report that the old
method has only been partially and imperfectly tried,
and to advise that it should be-strenuously carried out
in all its details. We have the most unhesitating con-
fidence in the power of a free press and free
speech to correct every abuse in the State; and in
place of studying the invention of some new plan of
agitation we have addressed ourselves exclusively to
the consideration of those details by which a more
complete development may be given to the principles
of action, an undeviating adherence to which has, we
confidently believe, been the cause of our safety,
progress, power, and success. As the use of free
speech, of open discussion, and of appeals to the un-
derstandings of men, through the press, have been
the time-honoured resources of the people against
oppression, and their remedy for social wrongs, so do li
we desire to stand upon the ancient ways of the Con-
stitution, and to rely upon the peaceful means for
redress of grievances prescribed by the customs of
the nation. And we have to congratulate our consti-
tuents on the satisfactory reflection, that in a time of
political excitement, social confusion, and popular
turbulence, during which disobedience to the laws
ended only in the punishment of the insurgents and
the discomfiture of their cause, our firm reliance on
the peaceable and well ordered means which we have
uniformly adopted has consolidated our power, and
greatly advanced the cause we are pledged to carry to
a triumphant conclusion.
" The Committee have received many valuable hints
from the Secretaries and other members of local asso-'
ciations, to which they have given their best con-
sideration, and which, to a considerable extent, have
been embodied in the following propositions. They
now beg respectfully to report :
" 1. That it is the general opinion of the Associa-

tions that ordinary aggregate meetings for routine
business may be advantageously held at the same
period of the day as at present, but that special meet-
ings, where it is importantto command a large attend-
ance, should commence not earlier than six o'clock in
the evening. They recommend, therefore, that it be
now resolved to continue the fortnightly aggregate
meetings for ordinary routine business, at half-past
two for three o'clock precisely ; and for special busi-
ness, at six o'clock for half-past six precisely • and
that the days of meeting be altered from Monday to
Friday.
" 2. That each Association should at once fix upon
some well-known place of meeting'in its own district,
for the purpose of holding weekly meetings, and some
specific day and hour, for the next six months, to enrol
members, to receive subscriptions, and to carry out a
regular system for the distribution of tracts ; and,
where practicable, to devote each alternate meeting to
public lectures, addresses, and discussions.; keeping
steadily in view the importance of each society extend-
ing their operations into the districts which adjoin
their own.

" 3. That the various branches of the Metropolitan
Anti-Corn-law Associations be divided into fourteen

topographical sections in the following order :
" No. I. Shall consist of the Central Association,
St. Ann's, St. Martin's, St. Margaret's, Westminster.
" No. 11. Whitechapel, Stepney, Wapping.
"'No. 111. Bethnal-green, Shoreditch, Bishops-
gate, Hoxton.
"No. IV. All Souls and Trinity, Portland-town,
St. Mary's, Rectory, Christchurch, Paddington, Ma-
rylebone.
" No. V. Western division of St. Pancras, Kentish-
town and Camden-town, Somer's-town.
" No. VI. Islington, St. Luke's. Clerkenwell, Hol-

loway.
" No. VII. Edmonton, Tottenham, Hackney, South
Hackney, West Hackney.
" No. VIII. Hammersmith, Kensington, Chelsea.
" No. IX. Camberwell and Dulwich, St. Mary's
(Newington), St. Saviour's, St. George'', Lambeth,
Vauxhall, Surrey.
" No. X. Stratford, Barking, Bow, Bromley,
Poplar.
" No. XI. Mitcham, Carshalton, Tooting, Merton,
Wallington, Wandsworth.
" No. XII. Uxbridg,e, Hounslow, Brentford, Rich-
mond.

" No. XIII. Bermondsey, Rotherhithe, Deptford,
Greenwich, Woolwich.
" No. XIV. Dartford,: Crayford.
" 4. That aggregate public meetings of all the As-
sciations shall be held, under the superintendence of
each of the sections above enumerated respectively, on
Wednesday of each week successively, at half-past
six o'clock for seven precisely, in such place, within
the district embraced under each section, as shall be
mutually agreed upon by the branches included in
the same; and that the said meetings shall be held in
the following order :
" Sections No. 1., on the 30th November, 1842 ;
No. 11., 7th December, 1842 ; No. 111., 14th De-
cember, 1842 ; No. IV., 21st December, 1842 ; No.
V., 4th January, 1843 ; No. VI., 11th January,
1843 ; No. VII., 18th January, 1843 ; No. VIII.,
25th January, 1843 ; No. IX., Ist February, 1843;
No. X., Bth February, 1843; No., XI., 15th Fe-
bruary, 1843 ; No. XII., 22d February, 1843 ; No.
XIII. Ist March, 1843 ; No. XIV., Bth :March, 1843.
" To make these meetings effective, it is recom-
mended that the secretaries of the branches embraced
in each section respectively should meet together
forthwith to arrange all the preliminaries of the meet-
ing in their several districts; that they should invite
to their public meetings deputations from all the other
sections, the presence of leading politicians, the at-
tendance of influential persons in their respective
neighbourhoods; reporters from the Press, and • the
general public, especially including ladies, by cards of
invitation, specifying place and hour, subscribed by
each secretary of the section—said cardsC of invitation
to specify on the back the name of each association
within the district, their ordinary place, day, and
hour of meeting for dispatch of business, and the
names of their chairman ; and each secretary of the
section to be supplied with as many of the said cards
as he may require—the holders of members cards of
the Anti-Corn-law League being admissible to all
Meetings.
" 5. That the secretaries of each section shall duly
advertise their respective public meetings in the daily
papers, and notify them by circular to all the other
branches of the association ; and they shall also be
announced at the conclusion of every meeting pre-
ceding that on which each section is to hold its meet-
ing, together with the names of such persons of in-
fluence as have agreed to attend. Due arrangements
ought to be carefully prepared for the sale of tracts
and the enrolment of members at each meeting, and
in 'order not to trench on the general funds of the
associations, the expenses should be defrayed by each
branch within the general sections respectively, in
the proportion of the number of members of which
each consists, or by a general or equal subscription,
as may be agreed upon. In every case there should
be a timely selection of chairman, speakers, and reso-
lutions, of which last several copies should be pre-
pared for the accommodation of reporters.
" 6. That the Committee would recommend to
each branch or section the formation of occasional
public tea meetings, in addition to the foregoing,
carefully avoiding the nights appropriated to sec-
tional meetings ; and they also propose that imme-
diately on the termination of the public meetings four
great aggregate tea meetings should be held.
" 7. Your Committee have arranged with a printer
to furnish tracts, of four pages octavo each, at the
rate of ls. 6d. per hundred ; and they recommend that
a new tract, bearing upon topics emerging in the
course of publication, applicable to the Corn -laws, be
issued every week, whereof each association should
agree to take and distribute at least 200 copies in its
own locality, in the manner of tract societies, and
shall have them on sale at their weekly and sectional
meetings. That, prior to entering upon this under-
taking, each association should meet and intimate to
the Secretary of the Central Association, the number
of tracts it agrees to purchase, direct the mode of de-
livery, and endeavour to make arrangements with 'the
news-venders and booksellers in their neighbourhoods
for the sale of the publications, as they successively

appear, advertising the addresses of those who agree
to keep them on sale, in all the bills, cards, and tracts
of the branch. That these publications shall be
made under the superintendence of the Business Com-
mittee of the Central Association, who shall give their
best attention to any manuscripts, tracts, or sugges-
tions transmitted to them by the branches.
"In conclusion, the Committee would beg 'to guard
themselves from being understood, in their introduc -
tory observation, to mean to convey the impression
that small progress has as yet been made in producing
an effect upon public opinion. While the nearly uni-
versal report made to them by their branches, and the
friends of free trade generally, is, that they still find
much ignorance in society on the subject of mono-
poly, and that ignorance is the great obstacle in the
way of repeal, they are quite as unanimous in assur-
ing the Committee that the public have made great
and rapid progress in the comprehension of the ques-
tion ; that at no former period was the zeal and ac-
tivity of their branches so great as at present ; that
they have never found such a disposition in the neutral
or hostile public to listen to their arguments, or to
acquire information as now ; and that a very great
and favourable change of opinion has recently taken
place among the agricultural portion of the commu-
nity, • especially in the case of tenant farmers. The
Committee entertain a strong opinion that no oppor,-
tunity should be lost of acting upon the rural popula-
tion, through every channel of communication, and
especially by tracts and the establishment of associa-
tions in the villages of Kent, Middlesex, Surrey, and
Essex. In the present temper of the predial districts,
they anticipate large accessions to their cause, from
the so-called protected interests themselves ; and they
have only, in conclusion, to urge upon their consti-
tuents and friends generally, the importance of im-
proving the golden opportunity afforded by the pre-
sent favourable disposition of the rural population to
recommend, by appealing to their reason and their
consciences, the great cause which it is the object of
the Association to promote."
After some conversation the Report was agreed to.
In obedience to the call of the Chairman,
Sir DE LACY EVANS congratulated them upon the
evident and most satisfactory progress which they
were making in the advancement of the cause which
they had espoused. The meeting itself afforded to
leis mind an admirable and convincing proof of the
vigorous manner in which they conducted their exer-
tions, and they could pot but anticipate that the hap-
piest results must ensue.—(Hear, hear.) Twelve
months ago Mr. Villiers—(Cheers),—the most able
and consistent champion of their cause, had congratu-
lated the country upon the excellent progress which
the Anti-Corn-law party was making ; and the very
first division in the present Parliament had shown
that, so far from a Tory Government coming into
power having stopped this progress of opinion in fa-
vour of free trade, a decided increase of supporters in
the House of Commons had been obtained.—(Hear,
hear.) The declarations of the Premier himself upon
this subject had been most profitable to their cause,
but most unsatisfactory to his own supporters.—
(Hear, hear.) This was an event which demanded
their best and most sincere self-congratulation, and
he hoped to see their exertions in consequence re-
doubled.—(Hear, hear.)

After some observations from Mr. Edwards and Dr.
Price,
Mr. WILSON said that he would offer a few obser-
vations to the meeting with reference to the principle
upon which the Report which had been presented to
them had been framed. The main argument which
had operated, upon the Sub-Committee was the im-
portance of disseminating knowledge through those
classes in which ignorance still prevailed upon this all-
engrossing topic;. and, therefore, it was that they had
adopted public instruction as the best means of work-
ing the important end which they had in view. They
had heard that, though other trades were dull, every
printing-machine in Manchester was to be set to work
by the Anti-Corn-law League. He feared that their
means would not enable them to give like employ-
ment to the whole of the London printing-presses;
but he hoped that, ere long, many presses would be
set to work, and tracts produced which would secure
a more lasting effect upon the minds of their oppo-
nents, or of their lukewarm friends, than the speeches
or lectures of their friends, however admirable in
themselves they might be.—(Cheers.)
Mr. MOOR (of Manchester) was then called on by
the Chairman. He said that he was convinced by
his experience and observation that no time like the
present had ever presented itself for affording instruc-
tion to the public mind, and thereby gaining fresh
supporters of their views. He referred with confi-
dence to the speeches which had been made by the
opponents of the existing Corn-law, and he was I pre-
pared to contend, notwithstanding the threat which
had been held out, and which had been already re-
ferred to by the Chairman, that much more had been
said to excite the ;people by the monopolists in the
House of Commons than by those who had striven to
obtain the just repeal of the tax upon bread. Ithad been
said in the House of Commons by the supporters of
the monopolist party, that machinery was the cause of
all the evil ; that the masters were the tyrants
and the oppressors of their servants ; that the
people were starving and were patient ; and yet had
the Prime Minister of her Majesty declared that his
measures were not measures of relief.—(Hear, hear.)
But they had heard speeches also from the same Right
Honourable Baronet in favour of free trade, and where
such speeches were delivered by such a man, could the
speeches of members of the Anti-Corn-law League,
men warmly engaged in the came of the people, upon
their own conviction of the injustice to which they
were subject, be raked up because they contained ex-
pressions of their more earnest feelings ?—(Hear,
hear.) Could men, he asked, speak calmly whose
rights were trampled upon, and who were treated with
injustice ?—(Hear hear.) The Report, which had
been read, showed that this Society was not alarmed
at the paragraph to which he had referred ; for his
own part, he should take it as his guide in future, and
he should speak even more warmly upon this question
than he had yet done. Cheap food was not the con-
sequence of the tariff of Sir Robert Peel ; but it was
the consequence of the continued refusal of free trade
to the people. The scarcity of purchasers was the
cause of the cheapness of provisions—the want of de-
mand was the cause, and until free trade was intro-
duced, until England had the world as the garden
from which it could select the produce which it re
quired, and to which it could send its productions, the
same difficulties must prevail.—(Hear, hear.) The
farmers now begin to see this ; and now, where tracts
were before viewed with suspicion, or not received at
all, they were looked for and accepted with anxiety
and pleasure.— (Cheering.)
Colonel Tnomrsox was prepared to give his testi-
mony also towards the proofs of the daily increasing
di3position and anxiety of the public mind in favour
of the cause of free trade. The Corn• law, he thought
they must be all agreed, was the weak point of their
adversaries—on which they trembled and quaked, but
it was the point on which they were going a-head—
(Cheers)—and he was sure that the time was not far
distant when they should arrive in the happy haven of
their vvishes.—(heers.)
Mr. S. SMITH gave notice that lectures on the Corn-
law would be delivered to-morrow (this day) at the
Royal Oak, Bayswater ; on Wednesday, at Poplar ;
on Thursday, at St. John's Wood ; and on Friday, at
Tottenham ; and thanks having been voted to the
Chairman the meeting separated.

THE Two THOUSAND POUNDS ROBBY:RT.—We
understand that a portion of the proceeds of this rob-
bery have lately made their way to the Bank of Eng-
land, in the shape of a 500/. pound note. It was paid
into the Bank of England by the Messrs. Masterman
and Co., bankers, London, to whom it was paid by
the Messrs. Rothschild, the celebrated millionaires,
who received it from their house in Paris. It has
been conjectured that the note was paid in Paris within
forty-eight hours of its being stolen in Preston.--

CONTEMPLATED IMPROVEMENTS AT WIN Dsoß._
About fifty handsome villa residences, encircled and
interspersed with ornamental grounds, and to be
called Victoria Park, through which it is proposed to
carry a road across the new bridge over the Thames

erected. The track of land running from Arbur-hill
to the Eton and Slough turnpike-road, commanding
views of Windsor Castle; has been purchased by Mr.

improvements.

MONEY MARKET and

• FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF T
CITY, MONDAY f.VIAG:,,
TIMES.—The shipwreck of the R teario;
China to London, at Etaples, near.Boulb
turday, has created considerable sensation V-e-e-,
The loss of 110 persons out of the 1161W.drIlikier,
has cast a gloom of the most melancholy description
F. among the merchants connected with the East India
trade. Her last place of resort was St. Helena, and
• the parties interested in her fate were therefA in ex-
: pectation every day of hearing of her safe arrival.
It appears that of the crew and . passengers, num-
bering the amount of persons already stated,, the saved
are one European, described to be the,ship s carpenter,
and five Lascars, who reached the shore in one of the
boats of the vessel. The Reliance was an old'ship
en this trading station, and had on board a cargo of
tea of considerable value, beside the freightage inci-
dental to a voyage she xi as in the habit of perform-
ing. The quantity of tea she brought over was
1,884,7481 k, of which there were 1,277,5661 b.
congou, and 406,5651 b. of twankav, with smaller
proportions of other descriptions. Most fortunately
for the insurance offices and underwriters in this
country, their risks upon this vessel do not include
more than from 14,0001 to 15,000/. of the 195,000/.
for which it is said she is insured, the Indian offices,
that is to say, the insurance offices of Calcutta and
Bombay, being responsible for at least 150,000/. to
180,0001. of the entire amount. This mishap, .kith
those reported from the Cape of Good Hope on'a-
turday, and others which have occurred on the coast
(luring the late severe weather, have, in a material
degree, depressed the feelings of parties connected in
our shipping interest. The London insurance offices,
and also the underwriters, have suffered by the loss of
the Abercrombie Robinson and the Waterloo, 'but
we are assured, not to any serious extent.
The letters from Cairo to the 23d ult., which have
been received, describe the greatest state of panic,
arising from the prevalence of the murrain amongthe
cattle in Egypt—a disease which is peculiarly alarm-
ing, as it is considered the forerunner of the plague.
The Pacha had already lost 90,000 oxen, besides other
animals, and had been obliged to make use of the
horses employed in the service of his artillery for ag-
ricultural purposes, as the destruction of the cattle
had rendered their number insufficient to get in the
seed for the ensuing year. The persons employed in
the transit of Indian passengers from Alexandria to
Suez had also experienced considerable loss. 100 of
their horses had perished in a single month, and the
mortality was increasing.
By the Swift packet accounts have arrived from
Rio de Janeiro to the 17th of September. These re-
port the suppression of the revolutionary feeling in
the interior, which had before so much disturbed the
tranquillity of the merchants. The consequence of
this was an immediate action upon the Exchange,
which had advanced to 26 to the lateist quotation at
the departure of this packet. She brings 50,000/. in
gold and diamonds. The communication between the
mines and the port being opened, this freightage was
to a certain extent made up by their' shipments to
their several interests here. As herFillajesty's ship
Curacoa was to follow two days subsequently, few of
the merchants were inclined to put their letters lon
board the Swift, the preference in respect to sailing
qualifications being in most cases awarded to Govern-
ment vessels when on their passage home. This will
account for the partial delivery of letters and papers
by the Swift to-day. The Curacoa had been the
round of 'the, coast on a collection cruise from Valpa-
raiso doWnwards, and when reported from that place
was represented as having 2,000,000 dollars to convey
to England. On the subject of trade in the Brazils little
is said; there was rather a better feeling to purchase,
now revolution was at an end, but an advance mprices
is not officially noted.

POST.—The Consol market has still a firm ap-
pearance. There was to-day nothing at all special
doing in any of the English Securities, but prices
are maintained, with scarcely a fluctuation in any of
the various desetiptions. Bank Stock was, perhaps,
not quite so good as during the past week. The late
advance does not appear to have been founded on any
intelligible cause, apart from that of the excessive
plentifulness of money. The price was certainly low
before ; more so than circumstances would at all war-
rant, but the interest recently demanded by the Bank
for the discount of bills and loans of money is so
much reduced, that there can be no chance whatever
of any immediate increase in the dividend payable to
Proprietors. The only wonder among well-informed
persons is, how the present rate can be maintained.
It is not unlikely that, availing tbecqselves of the
comparatively low_quotations for Bank Stock, many
of the holders a the Three-and-a-Half per Cent.
Annuities may have sold out of the latter fund with
a view to the re-investment of the proceeds in the
former. There was every temptation to take such a
course, since probability existed of Government pay-
ing off the Three-and-a-Ilalf per Cents.; but where
purchases of Bank Stock ma have been made in the
hope of an increase in the dividend, it can hardly
happen but that there must be disappointment. The
utmost that can be expected, taking things at, he best,
is that the rate now paying by the Corporation may
he continued without diminution.
R ONICL E. —The New York Herald, received
this morning, with its usual industry, publishes a
table showing an aggregate average decline in prices
at New York, from August, 1840, to August, 1841,
of 20 per cent., and up to August, 1842, of 31 per
cent:on' fie Chief articles of general consumption, and
remarks that when, by the operation of general causes
the farmers are shorn of the proceeds of theirlabour,
the new tariff steps in and puts up the prices of im-
ported and manufactured articles lf per cent., the
average actual advance in the Atlantic ports on those
articles subject to the increased duties. The same
paper observes that the new tariff cannot produce a
permanent check to bbsiness, because trade will force
its way into profitable channels, in spite of all restric.
tions. "The British Government," he adds, "is al-
ready making rapid strides towards concentrating the
trade of the 'Western States into its provinces, and the
late tariff had greatly assisted their efforts." This re-
sult, he says, is quite palpable to every one conversant
with the trade of the United States and Great Britain,
for the moment it was found that it will be more pro-
fitable to take the risk of entering by the Canadian
frontier than by the Custom-house of New York,
goods will be shipped for Quebec, New Brunswick,
&c., nearly as openly as if the trade were direct. It
it utterly impossible to guard a frontier extending
1,200 or 1,500 miles, with a population on both side,
of the line interested in affording every facility to Olt
contraband trade.

The best judges in the United States are said to be
of opinion that if the southern and western States •
were to 3ubmit to the new tariff remaining perma-
nent, which is considered very improbable, it will,
neither answer the purpose as a question of revenue
nor as a protection to manufactures, but the payMent

THE SICK POOR.-Sickness is a sore visitation to
the poor at this -time of the year, and yet there aee
very few who can be said to enjoy real good health.
The poor man tries to work, hut he cannot; he wants
good food and nourishment, but a few potatoes, or ft
little porridge, is all his wife can give him ; he would
be much relieved if he had a cormortable bed, but an
old chaff bed with no blankets is all he has, and of
this he is only allowed a fifth part. With no earnings,
he applies for relief, but is told it is not the proper days,
he must call again on Thursday. He goes a second time,,
and, after waiting two hours, gets his name down, but
must wait till Tuesday before his case is heard. A '
doctor's note is required, for which he has again to
wait at the dispensary. He attends edrly on the Tues-
day, hoping to get something to subsist upon, and
after waiting five hours, and almost sinking down
with hunger and fatigue, he is admitted, and receives •
half-a-crown, which, for himself and family, is not
sufficient for two days. If he- grumble at all, the
offer is refused, and an order for the workhouse is
sent after him. It is hard to be poor, but to be 'poor
and sick also, is a sore affliction. We cannot do better
than to remember such, and assist them to the 'utmost
of our power.—The Struggle.
