The Duke of Wellington, on Monday night, resumed his
place in the House of Lords. His Grace is a good disci-
plinarian both in precept and example ; and the hour for
meeting being five o'clock, his Grace was there, as usual,
punctually to time, although the Lord Chancellor was not
present, nor for some time afterwards. His Grace entered
the house, and walked down into his seat, with as firm a
step as we have witnessed at any period during the last 15
years.—Morning Herald.

• -
The celebrated Dr. Graefe, who lately died at Hanover,
left the enormous fortune of 3,600,000 Prussian dollars, equal
to 13,000,000 francs, or more than half a million sterling,
which he amassed almost entirely by his honourable profes-
sion, having begun life with a fortune of between £BOOO and
£9OOO only.
EMIGRATION.—A. number of framework-knitters have
emigrated to the United States during the last week or two,
and others are about to follow them. Their place of desti-
nation is German Town, near Philadelphia, where there is a
large manufactory for hose, gloves, &c., carried on by a
Quaker.—Leicester Chronicle.
MRS. STIRLING.—This very agreeable actress is about to
make a provincial tour, having played during the last week
at the Queen's theatre to good houses. Tunbridge Wells is
the first place, from whence she will proceed to Brighton,
Dover, Stamford, Liverpool, Manchester, and Glaseow ;
which towns she will go through the whole range of her
London characters, not forgetting that of the Chairwoman
in the Ladies' Club.

PRICES OF TIMBER AT LIVERPOOL

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JULY 22

The slim of stock to-day was very good, especially of sheep and
lambs. Owing to the continued badness of trade, which prevents
the labouring classes from purchasing as they have been accustomed,
the demand was by no means equal to the supply, and priCes of
beef, mutton, and lamb arc each id. per lb. lower than last week.
A few cattle and a fair number of sheep and lambs were left unsold.
Number of cattle at market ;-764 beasts, at Sid. to Gad.; 2724
sheep, at sad. to fiad., and 4087 lambs, at 6d. to 7d. per lb. sinking

PARIS AND ROUEN RAILWAY,

On Wednesday, a general meeting of the Liverpool share-
holders in the Paris and Rouen railway was held in the Cla-
rendon Rooms, South John-street. The object of the
meeting was td hear the report of the directors read, announc-
ing the fact of the French legislature having passed a law for
constructing the line, and giving a general statement of the
estimated traffic and prospects of the undertaking ; and,
further, to receive the proxies of the Liverpool shareholders
for a meeting to he held in Paris on the 30th instant. The
meeting was numerously and most respectably attended. On
.the motion of Mr. LA.vrairicz, John Moss, Esq. was
called to the chair.

The CHA ram art said, that in commencing the proceedings,
he should merely state that the law for the construction of a
railway from Paris to Rouen had passed the French Cham-
bers, and that a general meeting of the shareholders would
be held in Paris very shortly. Before he addressed any
further remarks to the meeting, he would call upon Mr.
Swift to read the report of the directors.
Mr. SWIFT then read the directors report, as follows :

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE

• By the Hawk, arrived at Deal, advices have been received
from the Cape of Good Hope to the 17th of May. The
small-pox still continued its ravages. From an abstract of
the revenue accounts it appears that the customs for 1839
showed an increase of £5,000 above those for 1838. The
singularity is recorded of a Caffre chief applying to the cOurtS
of justice for damages on account of injury done to his cha-
racter fiom libel, which was regarded with favour as an ap-
proach to civilization in preferring the legal and authorised
mode to more violent and barbarous means of revenge for
wrong inflicted.

POSTAGE RETURNS

Returns showing the effect of the late reductions in the
rates of postage have just been printed by order of the House
of Commons. The steady progressive increase in the number
of letters is highly satisfactory, especially under the present
universally dull and depressed state of trade. Even with the
short and limited experience of the working of the penny
postage, we may augur that the phenomena of the numbers
of letters standing still or retrograding, with an increasing
population and increasing trade, are passed away.
One return shows the numberof chargeable letters passing
through the general postoffice in London since the first re-
duction was made, and those for the corresponding period of
1839. The results stand thus :

NOVA SCOTIA

From Halifax, Nova Scotia, the dates are to the 21st of
June, but they refer to nothing of interest. According to
accounts from St. John's New Brunswick, in these papers
several extensive failures had occurred there, which had na-
turally created a great stagnation of business.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-07-24

SYRIA

Private letters from Malta contain some further particulars
relative to Alexandria. The last expedition to Syria was of
24 vessels of war, each carrying 20,000 charges of gunpowder,
with provisions for five months. They were accompanied
by 18 transport ships loaded with provisions and ammunition.
The 'number of men who attended this expedition was
15,400. The cost is estimated at 50,000 taleris. Abbas
Pacha, grandson to the Viceroy, who is to be generalissimo
of the expedition, has been furnished with -1000 purses in
money, and provisions to the value. of 15,000 piasters. Many
other vessels are destined for Syria, and no more than the
fleet of Constantinople and about four Egyptian vessels will
remain in the port of Alexandria. A Bedouin chief of Upper
Egypt has been presented to the Viceroy, who decorated him
with a vestment of honour, and appointed him head of the
Bedouins, with the office of furnishing 6000 Arab horsemen,
who were to go to Syria. The Viceroy requested the English
and French consuls to order their agents in Syria to have no-
thing to do with the insurrection, as be had learned that the
Christianti of Lebanon had revolted and had set up the French
flag. The French consul wrote, it is said, to Syria to thit
effect, but at the same time warned the Viceroy that France
was the protectress of Catholicism in the East and of the
convents of Lebanon, and that he would do well not to inter-
fere with them. The Russian_consul, as well as the English,
is said to favour the escape from the fleet of the Turks, who
are anxious to return to their own country, and even to pay
their passage.

In Syria there is as much. activity as in Egypt. Soliman
Pacha was in Seyda with 5000 infantry and 1000 cavalry, be-
sides three regiments at Acre ready to act at his order.
Mehemet Pacha of Haleb was advancing towards Zaleh with
8000 men, where 5000 mountaineers were to join him. These
mountaineers from Sichem are bitter enemies of the people of
Lebanon. At present Lebanon is inhabited by the descend-
ants of idolaters who took refuge there from Syrian cities
when persecuted by the Roman Emperors, who had become
Christians. Their neighbours are the Maronites, who are all
Christians, descended from persons who fled from the perse-
cutions of the Saracens. These two nations have a good un-
derstanding with each other. Intelligence from Arabia shows
that the Egyptian troops had retired from Yemen to Djedda.

A letter from Beyrout states that the insurgents, who are
at the very gates of that city, are daily on the increase. They
dennufl, as a condition of peace, that no higher taxes shall
be levied than under the dominion of the Porte, that they
shall not be liable to the conscription, and, above all, that the
soldiers who have quitted the Egyptian flag and sought re-
fuge with them shall not be claimed back. They further in-
sist that these requests, if granted, shall be confirmed by the
European powers. _ _

SPLENDID PICTURE OF THE "PRESIDENT"

STEAM SHIP,

The readers of the STANDARD, and the public generally,
• are respectfully informed, that on Friday, the 31st of
July instant, will be presented gratuitously to subscri-
bers and purchasers of the paper of that day a beau-
tiful Picture of the PRESIDENT, the largest Steam-
ship in the world, to be lithographed by a first-rate
Artist, from a splendid painting by Mr. S. Walters,
a gentleman of the highest celebrity as a Marine
Painter. This Picture will be accompanied by a full
and authentic description of the vessel, her construc-
tion, engines, and equipments.
The production of this work of art will be attended with
very considerable cost ; but the liberal patronage
with which the STANDARD has been honoured, in-

There was an extraordinary sensation in Wakefield Cattle
Market, on Wednesday last, in consequence of the notorious
pthartom fact, that a flock of nearly 800 diseased sheep
were
Lincoln-
shire, being exposed for sale ! It seems
afflicted with the prevailing epidemic, and that twteeerjeyoney
there had brought the disorder to a crisis. They
by scores i❑ the pens ; and many were speedily taken dying
in carts to the Great Bull yard to be killed, to prevent their
dying under the influence of the attack. The terms we haveir
used to express the slaughter will be understood. The stench
arising from the breath of the poor animals is described as
almost beyond bearing.—Doncaster Chronicle.

SPLENDID PICTURE OF THE "PRESIDENT"

STEAM SHIP.

The readers of the STANDARD, and the public generally,
are respectfully informed, that on Friday, the 31st of
July instant, will be presented gratuitously to subscri-
bers and purchasers of the paper of that day a beau-
tiful Picture of the PRESIDENT, the largest Steam-
ship in the world, to be lithographed by a first-rate
Artist, from a splendid painting by Mr. S. Walters,
a gentleman of the highest celebrity as a Marine
Painter. This Picture will be accompanied by a full
and authentic description of the vessel, her construc-
tion, engines, and equipments.
The production of this work of art will be attended with
very considerable Cost ; but the liberal patronage
with which the STANDARD has been honoured, in-
duces us to make this sacrifice, in testimony of our
gratitude, and in the hope that to a commercial and
nautical community such a present may be found
acceptable.

As we anticipate a large sale on the day in question, a
more favourable opportunity could not be presented
for the wide circulation of advertisements, which we
respectfully solicit.
To parties desirous of obtaining Pictures, we suggest an
early application at the office, where a book will be
kept for the insertion of names, in order that the
earliest and best impressions may be secured.

temporary reduction of duty on foreign sugars, we do
so without any sacrifice of our opinion as to the pro-
tection which, until an adequate supply of labour is
procured, ought to be given to our own colonies. The
present state of things is to us the strongest argument
that could be used for immediate steps being taken to
supply that free labour which would enable our sugar
colonies to compete with the products of slave labour.
Now, or never, is the time to restore prosperity to the
West Indian colonies, and to preserve the capital of
the planters. We have no doubt that free labour is
cheaper than slave labour; but free labour has not
been fairly tried in the West Indies, or British Guiana.
Mr. Ewart has addressed a letter to the Morning
Chronicle, in which, he " maintains that it is not by
forcing and fostering our exhausted colonies that the
great question of the abolition of slavery in the world

Is to be solved." Exhausted colonies Does Mr.
Evart mean to assert that the British sugar colonies
are exhausted ? Nothing but ignorance and disinge-
nuousness could hazard such an assertion. Is Jamaica,
with its two millions of waste land, an exhausted co-
lony ? Is Trinidad, with its fine black mould and wa-
• tered savannahs, which Mr. Canning described as
holding out excitements for carrying on the slave-trade
which flesh and blood could not resist, an exhausted

colony

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JuLy
_22,

The show of stock to-day was very good, especially of sheep and
lambs. Owing to the continued badness of trade, which prevents
the labouringclaases from purchasing as they have been accustomed,
the demand was by no means equal to the supply, and prices of
beef, mutton, and lamb are each id. per lb. lower than last week.
A few cattle and a fair number of sheep and lambs were left unsold.
Number of cattle at market;-763 beasts, at Sid. to 6 d.; 2724
sheep, at s;d. to 61(1., and On lambs, at 6d. to 7d. per lb. sinking
