LIVERPOOL, OCT. 16.—This day the friends of the
people finding the force, which has for the last two
days been used against their cause irralsistible (for
their adversaries had openly said, that' 50,0(1)1.
should not stand in the way of their success), drelined
pressing the contest firther; and Mr. 'housing All ad.
dressed the MAYOR and others assembled on the cc.
easion, in a manner which deeply impressed and con-
ciliated all parties, who united in loading him with
grateful acknowledgments, for having conducted the
contest in a way so becoming the friends of peace and
good order. The quiet of the town, which has been
greater than ever was known at former elections, is
wholly ascribed to this circumstance. Afterwards
Mr. BROUGHAM delivered a long speech to the p.,ople
;in Clayton-square, in which he detailed the great
j events of last Session, and closed with an elaborate
panegyrick on the character and principles of Mr.
Lot, as contrasted with those of Mr. PITT, whose
!immortality he amply commented upon. Lord Ser..
TON and Mr. Roscoe made excellent speeches. The
' concourse was great, and the close of this grand con-
: test bore every mark of a great and complete triumph
to the people.
I EXTRACT FROM AN AMERICAN PAPER.—" The
Editor of the London Coarier, speaking of-the style
of the American Journalists, calls it 4 bastard F,ng-
lish.'—This sort of reproach is rather surprising,
4 when it is considered that the English were the scho-
; lars of the Americans during the Revolutionary War.
We taught them orthography at Bunker's-hill, ety-
mology at Saratoga,' syntax in the Jvrsies, and pro-
sody at York Towo. If they will come to school
again, we can put them through the dead languages."

BUYING OP GUINEAS.—At the General Quarter
Sessions for Newcastle, holden by teljournment on
Wednesday and Thursday last, John Rian was tried
• under Lord Stanhope's Act, for buying guineas
above their current value. It appeared that, he had
paid for the guineas in provincial bank-notes ; and
though it was held that such a payment came within
the meaning of the Act, viz. paying more than the
current value of the guineas, by any means, device,
shift, or contrivance, het the particular means which
i the Defendant made qse. of not being set forth is the
indictment, he could not be convicted.
