people which were beyond the river, all such as knew the laws of his God, and that he should teach them that knew them not." Now, mark here we have legislative interference in the affairs of religion on the part of a heathen king—a king of Persia. He commanded that material support should be given to the Jewish priesthood, and for the maintenance of God's house out of the public treasury, replenished from the taxation of his heathen subjects. Yea, he went further. He proceeded to enforce obedience to his law, and the law of God on the matter, by severe penalties. "Whosoever," he says, "will not do the law Of_ thy. God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed upon him speedily, whether it be unto death or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment." Upon this striking passage of Scripture, so clear a proof that, if the ALMIGHTY disapproved of State interference in religion, he would not have specially inspired a heathen monarch to do so, he argues that the entire controversy between the Church and the Voluntaries is settled defi- nitely, once and for ever. Leaving, however, the Old Testament, he refers to the New for an inculcation of similar principles, and boldly contends that, as the Chris- tian religion was first established by the poor and the despised, it was manifested that the Church is independent of all State support for its existence. And he adds : Z.lf all the kings and emperors, senators and people, in the world were to combine against the Church of Christ, their efforts would be in vain. They did so once before, in the Apostolic times: "the kings of the earth and the rulers, the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered to- gether against the Lord and against his Christ ;' but " they could do nothing against the truth, but for the truth." These very persecutions but served to scatter the seed of the Word more widely. The Church is independent of the State, but the State is not independent of her, nor can it afford to dispense with her assistance. "And," he asks, If the civilising influences of Christianity be essential to the well-being of a state, to its moral and intellectual advancement,—can the State afford to leave its people unprovided with those means of grace —those public ordinances—whereby the Church may dispense the Waters of Life amid the parched and arid deserts of a moral wilderness ? In concluding this part of his subject, he sums up by saying that over and above what is actually found in the New Testament, the case stands thus :- 1. We have the principle fully admitted, yea, enjoined in the elder dispensation ; and what was once set up by Divine authority can never have been wrong in itself. 2. We have, in the New Testament, all that we could have under the circumstances, viz., a general principle for the guidance of rulers; a principle which, fairly acted out, leads us, by strictest logical deduction, to the National Establishment of Religion. The next part of this valuable pamphlet refers to the Anti-State-Church theory, the several points of which he replies to ; but we have already trespassed so much on our space, that we must defer the consideration of it until next week. We may, however, remark that our readers, whether Churchmen or Dissenters, would do well to obtain the work for themselves; for, as truth must be the object of both, it will amply repay their perusal.

And we are pursuing that wandering voic this day. Sometimes it comes to us in the midst of or sorrow, or irksome business ; and then we turn a and listen, and hear it ringing through the room like away the ill spirits of the spirits. He was consequently humoured in every way by his mother and brother, who did everything that a mother and brother's love could devise. He was closely watched, as it was feared he might lay violent hands on himself. He got up on Saturday morning and went down stairs with his brother, when they arranged what each one's work should be for the day. The deceased went into the dairy, and shortly afterwards his brother was shocked at hearing the report of a gun. On going to the spot he found his brother weltering in his blood. From the position of the body and the gun, it is believed that the deceased had placed the butt-end against the wall and reached forward to push the trigger; so that the muzzle of the gun having been placed against his breast, the con- tents were driven with terrific force through the chest, thereby causing instant death. An inquest has been held on the body, and a verdict of " temporary insanity" re- turned. AN EVENTFUL STORY.—The incidents of real life are often-times more interesting and scarcely ever less in- structive than those evolved during the development of a fictitious narrative or story, and they at times present a strangeness and improbability which we generally asso- ciate only with works of imagination. We meet every day with coincidences as extraordinary as ever the novelist created for the happiness or misery of his heroes—with facts surrounded with all the romance of fiction, and much more of the truth—with chapters in the history of real life as full of interest as the most touching chapters of romance, and appealing to the heart with more force, by drawing it to the contemplation of real sorrow and true heroism. Fortune, amidst this hurry and bustle of actual life, plays her strangest freaks—pushing from its highest pinnacles some, and raising others from the humblest spheres to unbounded wealth. Of the latter the public hear more, because they are of a more exceptional character, and to some :extent are connected with facts as instructive as 'they are interesting. Of this cate- gory is a story communicated to us within the past few days. Some years ago, a man in the humbler walks of life was honoured by an offer of marriage from a lady in comfortable circumstances, which he accepted, and the event was soon after consummated. During their wedlock she bore him three sons, a short time after which her death took place. In the course of a few years the widower sought another wife, his sons com- mencing the world with moderate competencies, and achieving (one or more in the East Indies), by prudence and frugality, princely fortunes. Whilst thus accumu- lating wealth, their father was struggling on pith a nu- merous and youthful family of girls, one of whom (at pre- , sent the only survivor), after exchanging vows of unalter- able devotion with a youthful wooer on his departure for the United States of America, ran away with a tailor, who wooed and won her whilst a girl at school. Subsequently the tailor and his wife removed to Leeds, where they lived ' for many years in the humblest manner, and whilst re- siding there one of the half-brothers died, leaving his father and his heirs by the second wife, at the death of oue of the surviving brothers, the whole of his estates, worth, it was stated, nearly a quarter of a million, the surviving brother undertaking not to allow anything to the half-sister during his lifetime. The father died either previously or immediately after this event, and, notwithstanding this brilliant fortune in re- version, the poor tailor and his wife continued to struggle on against difficulties which only the poor know, and re- sisting all overtures to give up their title for a present consideration. Some twelve or fifteen months ago the poor tailor died, leaving his wife with a family of three daughters and a son, with scarcely any means of obtain- ing a future maintenance. The history of that period is one of deeply painful character—a history of want and suffering—at times of actual starvation, relieved only by parish relief—the family barely existing, buoyed up by the hope of the fortune which the rapidly declining health of the brother on whose death its reversion depended placed almost within their grasp. The brother tried the waters of a neighbouring mineral spa during the past summer, and had frequent interviews with his half- sister, who, however, kept him ignorant of her abso- lute destitution. He found, however, but tempory relief from the waters, and towards autumn he re- turned to his home in the north, where he died last week, leaving his half-sister a shilling and mourning, to her son an estate in India, and to the eldest daughter a handsome fortune —the residue of his property going to an illegitimate son. At this conjuncture the old wooer of our heroine presents himself after a successful trans- atlantic career, and with the chivalry of a true knight he :o scare mind. How much we owe to that sweet iaugn it tur the prose of our life into poetry, it flings showers of su shine over the darksome wood in which we are travellir it touches with light even our sleep, which is no image of death, but is consumed with dre shadow. of mortality. EVERY MAIDEN WILL BE WED—if she can. sooner has time trotted her into her teens, and she shed her short frock, than she begins to think about . •. trimony ; and the more she thinks about it, feels—she don't know how. Still she dreams of Cupids, doves, darts, sentimental moonlights, and all su. fancy goods. Her pretty little heart flutters in its prison like a butterfly in a bushel basket. She sighs f.” thing—'tis nothing of any consequence. , 'tis nobody in particular. At last her fond affections are clenched, double-rivetted to an object in trousers an, shirt collar—she is fast ; and, as for making her le, you might as well undertake to whistle a grape vim. from a white oak.

At the vestry meeting on Thursday, Sir R. H. Cunliffe, Bart., proposed a rate of twopence in the pound, and Mr. T. Taylor Griffith se- conded the motion ; which was opposed by Mr. Darby, Mr. Rawlins, and others, and supported by Mr. John Lewis. The poll closed on Friday, with the following result : For the rate, 450 ; against the rate, 294; majority for the rate, 157. CHESTER, AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.—The traffic for the week ending 12th November, 1854, was as follows : Passengers, parcels, &c., £2,460 Os. 4d.; steam-boats, . 5d.: total, £2,871 9s. 9d.

Goods, £1,519 4s. 6d. Total, including Carnarvon traffic, £3,952 ls. sd. Increase, £713 7s. 11d. ACCIDENT SIN GULAI On Tuesday forenoon, as a cart laden with straw was being drawn by two horses out of the Woodside Hotel stable-yard, it tilted back so that the shafts were almost upright, and, the band beneath giving way, the horse was literally hanged by the neck. It is said that "in the multitude of counsellors there is safety," but the poor animal did not find it' so, for while several schemes to restore the cart to its position were ineffectually tried, he was choking. At length a man forced out the kecker, by which the shafts are con- fined to the body of the cart, and the horse suddenly fell to the ground, where he groaned heavily, and shortly after- wards died. THE LATE MR. STEVENSON, OF BIEKENTIEAD.-Mr. M`Bride, of Liverpool, has just completed the bas-relief, which, with the rich architectural decorations, will be immediately fixed in St. Mary's Church, Birkenhead. The subject of the bas-relief was suggested by the text, " Sick, and ye visited me." It represents the deceased watching over and tending a beautiful maiden, whose relatives are represented as earnest and anxious spectators. The relief is canopied and surrounded by work of a gothic character, 'in Caen stone, to harmonise with the character of the church. The inscripfion tablet is fixed below the relief, and is as follows : Sacred to the memory of William Stevenson, of Birkenhead, surgeon, who died 6th June, 1853, aged sixty-four years. This monument is erected by public subscription, as a record of the esteem in which he was regarded by his fellow-townsmen." The work reflects high credit upon the sculptor. CI uisTrelarr AIiONGST TIIE JEWS.--61 Wednesday, a meeting of the friends of the Society for the Promotion of Christianity Amongst the Jews, was held in St. Mary's School-room, Priory-street, Birkenhead. The chair was occupied by the Rev. A. Knox, and there were several other clergymen present. The meeting was addressed by the reverend chairman, the Rev. Mr. Howlett, secretary, and the Rev. Mr. Hurst, who gave some very interesting details of the progress which Christianity was making amongst the Jews. Resolutions favourable to the objects were passed, and the meeting separated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. APPLICATION OP SEWAGE.-At a meeting of the Man- chester Town Council, a few days ago, a letter was read from Mr. Samuel Brooks, in which that gentleman made the handsome offer of placing £l,OOO at the disposal of the council, to be expended in preliminary inquiries, and premiums for plans and experiments, as to the value of the nightsoil of the town. Mr. Brooks estimated the annual value of the sewage of the town of Manchester at £lOO,OOO a-year, and his letter referred to the importance not only of properly disposing of it for agricultural purposes, but of rendering it subservient to other useful objects. The thanks of the council were unantmously voted to Mr. Brooks for his offer. MORTA.LITY IN LANCA.SIIIRE AND CIII3IBIIIRE.—From the Registrar-general's returns of the last quarter, we learn that Cheshire, except in Runcorn and Wirral, expe- rienced less than the average mortality. In Lancashire, the deaths in Liverpool and West Derby, in the three summer quarters of 1852, 1853, 1854, were 3,537, 2,701, and 4,563 ; and the increase is referable to the epidemic cholera. The deaths from all causes in the summer quar- ter of 1849, when the cholera was epidemic, were 8,021 in the two districts. The population of Liverpool and West Derby in 1851 WAS 411,515. The deaths in Manchester and Salford during the last quarter were 2,789 ; the popu- lation was 315,956 in 1851. Diarrhoea has been the pre- vailing form of disease in Manchester, and the mortality has not been considersle. LORD HARDINGE AND TILE TWENTY-THIRD Frst- LIERS.—The promoters of the special subscription on behalf of the bereaved survivors of the 23rd have felt the declaration of those who oppose the scheme (that the regiment is chiefly composed of Irishmen and Scotch) almost as a libel on their countrymen. Their sense of injustice has reached the ear of the Commander-in-Chief, who, in a private letter to a friend, thus refers to the sub- ject :—" I send the last return of the Welsh Fusiliers, signed by its gallant and distinguished leader, who fell so nobly at its head in the action of the Alma. I wish the return had specified Welshmen, and I shall give directions that, in the Welsh Fusiliers, the four countries shall be separately and distinctly recorded. The number was 969, of which only 8 were Scotch and 182 were Irish. But the Welsh Fusiliers have always been a remarkable regiment, and their conduct on every occasion has shown that they have in no instance degenerated from their former fame. The Welsh Fusiliers were engaged at Albuera, and, by a curious coincidence, they lost 14 officers, killed and wounded, the same as at Alma ; but the loss of men was greater at Albuera, namely, 324 men, and at the Alma 196 men." The above has given the greatest satisfaction to those who felt that the bravery of the Welsh was detracted from by being draughted into other regiments nste„,ftd tip3t Which bears their name.

INDIA OVERLAND MAIL The Overland Mail has brought intelligence from Cal- cutta to the sth, and from Bombay to the 14th of October. From the summary of the Bombay Times we extract the following :—" The expedition sent out for the destruc- tion of the villages on the Peshawur frontier appear to have finished their work successfully, and they have now returned to camp. Overtures are being made, it is said, by the Ameer of Cabul to regain our friendship—the fatal error committed by him of invading. the Punjaub in 1849, has destroyed our confidence in his judgment as well as in his influence amongst his own people, and half a century will not be sufficient to restore us to the terms on which we stood with Affghanistan up to 1837, if such a thing should ever indeed be possible. A party of the Russians are said to have taken Kokan, a petty and bar- barous principality on the borders of Bokhara. Whethez they amount to ten, a hundred, or ten thousand does not appear, and the matter in no way concerns us. The re- ports of Russian intrigue and agression obviously emanate from the Russians themselves—they increase their im- portance by alarming the timid and credulous—they gra- tify the appetite for the marvellous and obtain employ- ment for the native politicals and spies who disseminate them. No one would have greater cause than the Czar to deplore an advance of the Russians upon India, which would dispel the delusion he wishes to maintain that we are vulnerable and that he could harm us." In the Nizam's country there have been considerable disturbances, necessitating extreme measures against a thousand Rohillah mercenaries in the employment of a refractory chief. Every opportunity seems to have been given these desperadoes to disperse, but they refused, and brought signal punishment on their own heads. It is reported that the Governor-General intends to visit Madras and the Neilgherries in December or January, and retire early in spring from an office he has adminis- tered so greatly to his own honour and the public advan- tage. It is said he will be succeeded by Lord Elgin, of whom the highest hopes are entertained. . . . The sittings of the Sarawak Commission have closed. Sir James Brooke has been fully and honourably acquitted of all the charges brought against him. His slanderers refused to appear as witnesses, and some of those who subscribed the petition confessed that they knew nothing as to the truth or falsehood of the statements contained in it. This bottle of smoke will cost the country some £lO,OOO or £15,000. ECCLESIASTICAL INTELLIGENCE. PREFERMENTS AND APPOINTMENTS. Rev. W.

The Bishop of Chester consecrated the piece of land added to the churchyard of the Parish Church of Sandbach, in the county of Chester, on Friday last, the 17th instant. A sermon was preached by his lordship on the occasion, after which a collection was made in aid of the fund for paying off the debt incurred by the restoration of the church, a, portion of which still remains undischarged, and the aunt of £57 and upwards was collected. WE (Morning Chronicle) understand that it has been determined to move for a prohibition in the case ,of the proceedings instituted by the Archbishop of Canterbury against Archdeacon Denison. THE CONVOCA.TION of the Prelates and Clergy of the province of Canterbury was on Friday prorogued in the Jerusalem Chamber, . Westminster, pursuant to the Queen's writ, by the Vicar-General, under a commission from his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate and Metropolitan, to Friday, December 15. THE BRAINTREE CHURCH-RATE CASE.—An appeal to the clergy and laity of the Established Church has just been made by Archdeacons Hale, Sinclair, Jones, and Grant, with the object of obtaining money to reimburse Mr. Veley, who conducted the Braintree case on behalf of the pro-rate party through eight suits to final failure. " The cost of these proceedings," says the archdeacons, " which were protracted from 1837 to 1853, a period of 16 years, amount to £2,378 lls. 4d. After deducting £7OO, the amount of the subscription in 1841, before noticed, it appears that there remains due to Mr. Veley, for money actually advanced, or still to be paid by him, the sum oi £1,678 lls. 4d., independent of an outlay of more than £2OO for travelling and personal expenses during 130 dart spent in the cause, for which sum, be it observed, he hasp made no claim." The subscription is headed by the Arch- bishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London with £lOO each; other prelates following with sums ranging between £5O and £2O. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—MoNsy.—The dividends declared for the present month indicate no decline in the amount of business done by the City Banks. The Money market at Boston is in easier condition. The banks show increased loans, and specie and loans on prime securities are quoted as low as 8 per cent. At Philadelphia the receipts at the banks were very heavy, first-class paper selling at 102, which is slightly under the New York rate. The heavy payments of the 4th having been made without any seri- ous failures, there will now be a little relief to borrowers. The bank statement shows a decline in loans to the extent THE SOLITUDE OP THE DESERT.—I foundan unspeak- of $1,340,000, and in deposits $563,000, with a slight in- able fascination in the sublime solitude of the desert.

On one subject alone you are silent—your own distinguished service. To this, however, others have borne witness, and Her Majesty is profoundly sensible that, if her army has shown itself worthy of its ancient renown, its commander has proved himself able to uphold it, and has fulfilled the prediction written 40 years ago by hap under whom he learned the art of war, and whose loss we still mourn, that he would " become an honour to his country." "`I am instructed by Her Majesty to express to your lordship the very sincere sorrow which she has expe- rienced from the perusal of the long list of gallant officers and men who have been either killed or wounded in this memorable engagement. Such a victory could not be at- tained without a heavy loss, and there is every reason to believe that no disposition of your forces would have en- tailed a less sacrifice, and at the same time obtain a result so decisive that it may be hoped much future bloodshed will be prevented. Her Majesty trusts that such of her subjects as have been plunged in grief by the loss of re- latives and friends will find some consolation in the re- flection that those who have not survived to share in the triumph of their comrades have fallen in a just cause, and that their names will henceforth be inscribed in the an- nals of their country's glory. " The Queen will be most anxious to receive such fur- ther despatches from your Lordship as may tend to relieve the affectionate anxiety of the friends of the wounded, and Her Majesty trusts that a very large por- tion of these brave men may, before long, be restored to the ranks of your army, and may enjoy in future times of peace the well-earned honours of their gallant exertions. " The patience with which the regimental officers and men bore, without a murmur, the unusual privations to which they were necessarily subjected after they had landed in the Crimea, has elicited Her Majesty's warmest sympathy and approval. Their sufferings from disease before that time were such as might have subdued the ardour of less gallant troops, but have, in their case, only proved that, in the hour of battle, they remember nothing but the call of duty. " ' Your Lordship's cordial acknowledgment of the in- valuable service rendered by Sir Edmund Lyons and the officers and seamen of the Royal Navy will be as highly appreciated as it is justly deserved by those gallant men. Deprived of an opportunity of vindicating their ancient prowess against a fleet which refuses to take the sea, they have rendered every assistance in their power to the ope- rations of the army, and their noble conduct on the field of battle, where they soothed the sufferings of the wounded, and performed the last sad offices to the dead, will ever be remembered to their honour, and bind still more indissolubly the bonds which have long united the military and naval service of the Queen. ' I have the honour to be, my lord, " Your Lordship's most obedient hum NEWCASTbIe servant LE, " . " General, the Lord Raglan, G.C.8., &c., &c. By order (Signed) " J. B. B. ESTCOURT, Adj.-Gen.' "

people which were beyond the laws of his_God, and that he should teach them that knew them not." Now, mark here we have legislative interference ih the affairs of religion on the part of a heathen king—a king of Persia. He commanded that material support should be given to the Jewish priesthood, and for the maintenance of God's house out of the public treasury, replenished from the taxation of his heathen subjects. Yea, he went' further. He proceeded to enforce obedience to his law, and the law of God on the matter, by severe penalties. " Whosoever," he says, "will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed upon him speedily, whether it be unto death or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment." Upon this striking passage of Scripture, so clear a proof that, if the ALMIGHTY disapproved of State interference in religion, he would not have specially inspired a heathen monarch to do so, he argues that the entire controversy between the Church and the Voluntaries is settled defi- nitely, once and for ever. Leaving, however, the Old Testament, he refers to the New for an inculcation of similar principles, and boldly contends that, as the Chris- tian religion was first established by the poor and the despised, it was manifested that the Church is independent of all State support for its existence. And he adds : =lf all the kings and emperors, senators and people, in the world were to combine against the Church of Christ, their efforts would be in vain. They did so once before, in the Apostolic times : "the kings of the earth and the rulers, the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered to- gether against the Lord and against his Christ ;" but " they could do nothing against the truth, but for the truth." These very persecutions but served to scatter the seed of the Word more widely. The Church is independent of the State, but the State is not independent of her, nor can it afford to dispense with her assistance. "And," he asks, If the civilising influences of Christianity be essential to the well-being of a state, to its moral and intellectual advancement,—can the State afford to leave its people unprovided with those means of grace—those public ordinances—wherry the Church may dispense the Waters . 4 of Life amid the parched and arid deserts of a moral wilderness ? In concluding this part of his subject, he sums up by saying that over and above what is actually found in the New Testament, the case stands thus :- 1. We have the principle fully admitted, yea, enjoined in the elder dispensation ; and what was once set up by Divine authority can never have been wrong in itself. _ 2. We have, in the New Testament, all that we could have under the circumstances, viz., a general principle for the guidance of rulers ; a principle which, fairly acted out, leads us, by strictest logical deduction, to the National Establishment of Religion. The next part of this valuable pamphlet refers to the Anti-State-Church theory, the several points of which he replies to ; but we have already trespassed so much on our space, that we must defer the consideration of it until next week. We may, however, remark that our readers, whether Churchmen or Dissenters, would do well to obtain the work for themselves ; for, as truth must be the object of both, it will amply repay their perusal.

In American and foreign sack flour the turn is slightly in favour of buyers, and the supply of English increasing ; that description is not sale- able without a reduction of is to 2s per sack. Barley in fair request, and rather dearer, good Danish parcels being sold at 5s 8d per 601bs. Egyptian beans also command somewhat more money. Oats and oatmeal dull, and offered rather lower. Indian corn in tolerably fair re- quest at Tuesday's currency. BRITISH Wheat, * 70th., a. d. s. d.

Oats, beans, and peas make full prices. WAKEFIELD, Nov. 17.—The arrivals have been moderate only. Wheat sold slowly at is per quarter decline. Barley was dull and rather cheaper. Beans steady. In oats and shelling there was no alteration.— Arrivals of wheat 5,475 quarters. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Nov. 18.—Our farmers brought a moderate supply of wheat to market this morn- ing, which sold at rather under the prices of this day week, the decline of Tuesday being nearly recovered. A fair business in south country at about is per quarter under the currency of last Saturday. Foreign in better demand at late rates. Barley in good request, and is per quarter dearer. No change in the value of oats. Flour a fair sale at about is per sack less money. CORK, Nov.—Tne flour market has been dull, and our late advance obtained only in retail. Foreign wheats are still scarce, but the week's sales were at prices in favour of buyers. Indian corn is firm, and purchases mostly limited to immediate requirements. The grain market well supplied, and all kinds receded. DUBLIN, Nov. 17.—There was a firm market at our Corn Exchange to-day, and the closing currencies of Tuesday were supported for every description of home grain except middling oats, which, towards the close, were a shade lower. Indian corn and foreign wheats dull, without change in price. 1 White Wheat.4ls Od to 43s Od Oats, new.. ..15s Od to 17s Od Red do ... 366 Od to 426 Od Rapeseed .... 27s Od to 28s 6d New wheat , .

MANUFACTURES MANCHESTER.—Not the slightest improvement in this market ; on the contrary, a still greater degree of depression and stagnation is apparent. Prices are natu- rally effected by this continued and increased dulness, and, with very few exceptions, a further downward tendency prevails. The foreign houses are buying very little yarn. For India and China there is little or no demand, whilst the continental buyers are no better. Prices are lower and very irregular, the only exception being that yarns for the'Mediterranean and Levant markets are still in re- quest, and these firmly maintain their former value. As regards the home demand, manufacturers restrict their purchases within the narrowest limits—the fact that both cop yarns and warps are obtainable at reduced prices, being no inducement. For goods the demand seems al- most to have died out, so exceedingly small has the in- quiry become. Long cloths, T cloths and domestics continue to be relatively the most in demand, although these are less inquired for. India shirtings have reached a ruinously low price, whilst other fabrics for the same quarter are but little better. ROCHDALE. —The flannel market has been a little quieter, and the demand for goods not so brisk ; but there has been little or no change in prices. The wool market is steady, with a tendency rather in favour of the buyer. HUDDERSFIELD.—The market continues very fiat. There-appears to have been even less - doing than usual, and complaints are general. - - • LEEDS.—The business done at the Cloth Halls dining the week has been of a very limited character, being merely confined to purchases to assort the stocks, and the markets consequently ruled dull. Prices are without alteration, and the stocks quite as light as usual at this season. The mills continue in active operation. There have been very few buyers in the town this week, and those who have made their appearance have bought sparingly. The business done in the warehouses has, in consequence, been below an average amount. BRADFORD.—WooI: The transactions in wool are very limited; lower prices are now submitted to, without baying the effect of inducing more extended operations. Mills and brokes are much sought up, owing to the re- duced quantity now making.—Yarns : No alteration in this market ; it continues as gloomy as ever, and further curtailment of production is resorted to.—Pieces : In heavy goods, suitable for winter wear, there has been more doing, but at prices at which they cannot be replaced. No alteration in any other class of goods, and manufacturers are generally running daylight. LEICESTER.—The quite state of trade has become more general, and little is doing except for the small orders which keep arriving for sorting up stock. Price of material keeps firm, and only a moderate supply is in the market. NOTTINGHAM.—The instability of the money market in almost all parts of the world with which we have com- mercial transactions appears at this time unprecedented, yet the general trade of this town is as pod as might be expected. There is no probability of a change of price taking place in yarn for either lace or hosiery purposes. Certain large lots may be sold at less than last prices, depending, of course, upon the necessity of vendors ; but there is little reason for apprehending any general reduc- tion in price for the present.

On the contrary, they formed up in the most beautiful order, altered their front so as to meet the attack of the French, and, extending their line to the left, prepared to resume their attack upon the English. At that time, however, our men were well pre- , pared, and flung themselves headlong upon the enemy, t° .charging with the bayonet. The Russians boldly charged with the bayonet also, and, for the space of five minutes the 30th, 41st, 49th, 88th, and six or seven Russian gun outcry regiments were stabbing, beating, and `firing at each other . in the most fearful manner.

The Russian army, it appears, had arrived at Balaclava on the morning of the 3rd, and a council of war was im- mediately held, at which it was determined to make a feint attack on the rear of our defences, and a real attack on the right of our position on the 6th.

The Russians, in all, had about 60 and 70 guns in action. Generals Osten-Sacken and Liprandi conducted the assault. The latter was slightly wounded. The prisoners, one and all, deny that they were drunk, or had any spirits before commencing the attack ; small quantities of a spirit like brandy were found in the can- teens of some of the men, but this they account for by saying that every thirtieth man has one of these flasks for `he wounded. I most certainly saw no signs of intoxica- , even " primieg," on any of them. They lost nearly 10,000 men on their march round from Odessa, from,sickness and fatigue.-. Theinsufferings they describe as terrible. Neither the Grand Duke Constantantine nor Prince Alexander was actually present on the field. They remained all day on the slope of the heights on the north side of the harbour, beyond Inkermann. By the order of the Grand Duke, no less than five distinct divtsions were sent up to try and maintain the footing which they had got on the heights of our camp above Inkermann, As each division failed to effect their object for .more than a few minutes, the Grand Duke assailed the commanders with the most opprobrious terms. cowards and traitor.. ._ them to return to the attack. The Morning Herald correspondent, writing on the Bth instant, says : It has been decided that the place is not to be stormed for the present. We are said to be waiting for strong reinforcements. To-day., a flag of truce was sent into Sebastopol. The bearer of it carried aletter from the allied commanders to the commander-in-chief of the Russian forces. It stated that General Canrobert and Lord Raglan had seen with detestation and disgust the merciless cruelty with which the enemy bayonetted our wounded upon the field, and requested to know if the war was to be carried on in this barbarous and extermi- nating manner, as then the allies would now how to act. The letter also contained a hint that in case of our pri- soners being ill-treated, the Russians would do well to remember that we had many of their countrymen in our hands, whose treatment would ba regulated by that which our men received from them. A Russian major was cap- tured at the close of the battle. Ile had been observed on many occasions stabbing and hacking our unf?r,tunate wounded with his sword, and directions were given to a party of the Guards to take him alive, if possible.

If they consent to punish him, he will be given up to them If they decline to interfere, he will be shot, as the laws of civilised warfare denounee the killing of defenceless wounded as murder. If he is found guilty, there is not the least hope of his escape, as the allied generals are determined to make examples of all who disgrace themselves by such inhu- manity. The Russian prisoners say they had four generals killed and three wounded, and that all their officers, as soon as they fell were carried to the rear.

The London theatrical season is setting in with a threatened flow of classical solemnities. A Greek tragedy, translated by Mr. SPICER, is announced as " imminent" at the St. James's ; while Drury-lane, it is said, will not be content with anything less sombre or less antique than a tragic drama of Babylonian type. At the Adelphi, a farce, by MAIM LEMON, entitled "The Railway Belle," has been produced with good effect and much success. Another new piece, entitled "The Balance of Comfort," from the pen of Mr. BAYLE BERNARD, was produced at the Haymarket, on Thursday night. It was well acted, and promises to become an ephemeral celebrity, at the very least.

In spinning yarn among silks and satins a man is sure to be worsted and twisted. And when a man is worsted and twisted he may consider himself wound up.

" Wine and water !" exclaimed Scott in astonishment, who had,never suspected his friend of being addicted to such thin potations. " Yes," replied Sir Adam, " I drank the wine and he drank the water." TICE FIRE AT MEMEL destroyed 3 churches, 5 schools, 9 public edifices, 256 private dwellings, 83 warehouses, 133 stable, 49 coachhouses, and 2 mills, valued at 848,000 thalers, exclusive of merchandise. WANT OF CONFIDENCE.—At a Court of Aldermen, in London, on Saturday, Alderman Sidney gave notice of his intention to ask the Lord Mayor to call a special Court to consider the following motion :—" That a dutiful address be presented to Her Majesty, praying that :she will be graciously pleased to remove from her councils the Right Hon. the Earl of Aberdeen, who is no longer entitled to public confidence ass the first Minister of the Crown, and to place at the head of her Administration a constitutional adviser whose opinions are in unison with the people at this national crisis." PAPER MArruipAcrunE.—A paper manufacturing com- pany has been established in Western India, with respect to which the Bombay Telegraph, after alluding to a recent meeting of the shareholders, says,—" A gentleman of considerable chymical attainments is to be engaged for the purpose of testing the pulp producing properties of both the aloe and the plantain tree ; and we learn that Government have taken a warm interest in the enterprise, and will most probably grant a site for the works either at Callian or Tanna. There can be no doubt as to the ultimate realisation of this scheme. The projectors are all men of capital and enterprise, and we believe the majority of the shareholders look rather to the certainty of pro- spective, but permanent gains, than to the fluctuations of speculative gambling." THE COURT or ASSIZE of Versailles was occupied on Tuesday and Wednesday in trying a girl named Goince, aged between twelve and thirteens daughter of a baker of .beil, for having poisoned her two sisters ; and a woman named Ferron, of the samevillage, for having aided her in the perpetration of the crime. The details of the case were of a singularly' indecent character, and accordingly the court went into them with closed doors. The trial ended by the girl being acquitted on the ground of having acted without discernment ; but she was ordered to be detained in a house of correction until she should attain her twentieth year. The woman was declared guilty, and sentenced to death.—Paris Paper. , near 0 COLLISION AT SEA.—On Monday night (last week) two sloops—the New Hope, Tow, master, and the Miss Smith, Hughes, master—both bound from Glasgow to Runcorn, with cargoes of pig iron, while endeavouring to avoid a large vessel off the Calf of Man, came in collision with each other, causing considerable damage to both vessels. The crews got into one boat—abandoning the unfortu- nate crafts—and, after being tossed about in the channel for nearly 48 hours, were picked up during a gale of wind about eight miles off Douglas Head, by the brig Grace, of Harrington, and landed in Douglas Harbour. One boy belonging to the abandoned sloop died immediately after being taken on board the Grace, from fatigue and over- exertion DEATH Or A LARGE FUNDIFOLDER IN TILE WORIC- IIOUSE.—An elderly female, who, on the 25th of August, last, was taken to the workhouse of the Holborn Union, having been run over by a cab in Liquorpond-street, has just died in the institution. While in the workhouse no information could be obtained from her concerning herself or her friends, and all inquiries on these points made by the officials of the union have proved unavailing. Her ap- pearance bespoke her to be very poor, but from memoranda found upon her since her death it appears that she is in possession of funded property to the extent of about £5,000. The sum of £5O was found upon her, the balance of which sum, after payment of her funeral and other expenses, will be handed over to the treasury in the event of none of her friends coming forward to claim her property. The name of " Miss Mary Bell" was written on a Stock note found upon her, which is therefore supposed to be her name. Tun RUSSIAN PRISONERS Al+ LEWES,—Three of the Russian officers who were on parole in this town, and three of the privates who were, in the war prison took their departure on Friday afternoon, for London, en route for Russia, in exchange for English prisoners captured by the enemy. The officers who have taken their departure are Captain Von Essen, Captain Snellman, and Lieutenant Pischulin, of the Imperial Horse Artillery, who were taken at Bomarsund. A few days since one of the officers on parole purchased one of Colt's revolvers of a gunsmith in the town, and he subsequently received an order for about a dozen more, but before executing it he consulted a legal gentleman, and declined to supply them. These circumstances became noised abroad in .the town, and eventually reached the ears of the local representatives of the Government ; the result of which was that inquiries were instituted as to the purchaser, and that having been ascertained, the weapon was demanded from him and taken. THE MATRIMONIAL ASSOCIATION.-At Bow-street Police-office, on Saturday, Mr. Edwards, hotel-keeper, of Norfolk-street, Strand, who recently drew the attention of the magistrates to the proceedings of the Matrimonial Alliance Association, and who obtained a warrant against the secretary, Lawrence Cuthbert, now waited upon his worship to explain that, since he had laid the former complaint, he had received a number of letters from all parts of the country, from persons who complained of having been victimised by the same society. One gentle- man, at Colchester, stated that he had parted with £9O, while other writers mention £25 and other sums as the cost of their folly in entering upon the delicate negotia- tions to which they were invited by the public circulars of the "institution." Mr. Edwards placed some of the let- ters before the magistrate, who said there was abundance of law to meet such cases as these, if those who had parted with their money thought fit to step forward and prosecute. FATAL RAILWAY COLLISION.—A collision occurred on the Midland Railway, in the parish of Leicester, on Sa- turday night. The Burton branch of this railway joins the main line by a gentle curve, about half-a-mile to the south of the Leicester station. About 40 minutes past eight o'clock, a goods train from Burton for Leicester, and which was due there at a quarter past six o'clock, was just pass- ing along this curve on to the down rails of the main line, when it was run into by the down passenger train, which leaves Euston-square at four o'clock p.m., and is due at Leicester at five minutes past eight. That part of the goods train which was struck was much shattered, and the engine of the passenger train was turned over on to the up line of rails. The driver and fireman escaped un- hurt, but seven passengers were shaken, cut, and bruised, and one, a lady, has since died. She was a first-class pas- senger, and was found insensible on the floor of the carriage in which she was travelling. A surgeon at once adminis- tered some stimulants, and she was removed to Cook's Temperance Hotel, where she died early on Sunday. From documents in her possession, it appears her name was Robertson ; she had travelled from Dorkington to London, and had a ticket from London for Derby. She had a large quantity of luggage and books, and a con- siderable sum of money in her possession.

THE CONSERVATIVES AND THE WAR WHILE the war forms the absorbing subject of public interest, and occupies conversation to the exclusion of nearly everything else, it would ap- pear almost a waste of words to say anything on the once-exciting topic of party politics. Never- theless, we must not altogether lose sight of the interests of party, the more particularly as the conduct of Ministers with reference to the war will necessarily come under discussion before Par- liament. The question may, however, assume two phases,which will probably meet with different fates; and the course to be pursued by that large section of the House of Commons, known as the Conser- vative party, will consequently not be unimportant. It is useless to conceal the fact that the ex- penses already incurred in the prosecution of the war have amounted to a very large sum, and that the further reinforcements, which are imperatively called for to a much greater extent than has yet been supplied, will render necessary additional de- mands on the Exchequer to a very considerable amount. The voting of these supplies, and the mode by which they are to be raised, form what is usually considered the most important functions of the House of Commons—leading in many instances to decisions on which may hang the fate of a Ministry. In an emergency like the present, how- ever, it is of the utmost consequence that there should be unanimity of opinion on the first great question of sparing no expense, in order that the war may be prosecuted with vigour. It is, there- fore, satisfactory to know, from the public decla- rations of those who are recognised as leading men in the Conservative party, that it is not their intention to offer any opposition to the demands of the Ministry for the most ample supplies, or to in- terpose any factious objections to the mode of their being raised. In this respect, therefore, the House of Commons, as representing the voice of public opinion, the tendency of which is unmistakeable, will be unanimous, except, indeed, it may be the small section who advocate the exploded fallacies of the Peace delusion ; and, if we may judge by the burning of JouN BRIGHT in effigy, at Manchester, they have not much sympathy even among their own constituents. But if the Coalition Cabinet be able to obtain the support of Parliament upon a question which will obviously secure unaaimity, it does not tl fore follow, that their conduct with reference to the war will secure an equal meed of approbation. On the contrary, we believe there is much which is deserving of marked disapproval. From the com- mencement of the war the sincerity of Lord ABER- DEEN was open to grave suspicion—which his sub- sequent conduct has tended to confirm. In his

Head-quarters, before Sebastopol, Nov. 7, 1854. Monsieur le 3/lar4chal,—l have the honour to confirm to you my telegraphic despatch, dated November 6, and thus worded :—" The Russian army, swelled by reinforce- ments coming from the Danube, and by the reserves collected in the southern provinces, and animated by the presence of the Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas, yes- terday attacked the right of the English position before the place. The English army sustained the combat with the most remarkable firmness. I caused it to be supported by the division of General Bosquet, which fought with admirable vigour, and by the troops nearest at hand. The enemy, far more numerous than we, beat a retreat with enormous loss, estimated at 8,000 or 9,000 men. This obstinate struggle lasted the whole day. On my left, General Forey had to repel, at the same time, a sortie of the garrison. The troops, energetically conducted by him, drove the enemy back into the place, and inflicted on him a loss of a thousand men. This brilliant day, not pur- chased without loss by the allies, does the greatest honour to our arms." The action summarily expressed by the despatch given above was one of the hottest and most violently contested. From the first musket shots that were fired, the deserters that came over to us revealed the true state of the Russian army with respect to its effective strength, and we were enabled to calculate the reinforcements it has successively received since the battle of' the Alma. These are-Ist, some contingents from the Asiatic coast, from Kertch and Kaffa; 2ndly, six battalions and some detachments of marines from Nicolaieff; 3rdly, four battalions of the Cos- sacks of the Black Sea ; 4thly, a great part of the army of the Danube; 10thly, llthly, and 12thly, some divisions of infantry, forming the 4th corps, commanded by General. Dannenberg. These three divisions were transported by posthorses, with their artillery,from Odessa to Simpheropol, in a few days. Finally arrived the Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas, whose presence could not fail to over-excite this army, which forms, with the garrison of Sebastopol, a total of at least 100,000 men. It was in this condition that 45,000 men of this army surprised the point of the heights at Inkerman, which the English army had not been able to occupy with sufficient forces. Only 6,000 English took part in the action, the remainder being employed on the siege-works ; they vali- antly sustained the shock until General Bosquet, arriving with a part of his division,: could lend them such aid as might ensure success. One hardly knows which most to praise, the energetic firmness with which our allies braved for a long time the storm, or the intelligent vigour dis- played by General Bosquet, when conducting a part of the brigades Bourbaki and d'Autemarre, in order to attack the enemy, who extended beyond them on the right. The 3rd regiment of Zonaves, under the chefs de batail- ton Montaubon and Dubos, there justified most signally the old reputation of the arm. The Algerine Rifles (tirail- leurs), Colonel de Wimpffen ; a battalion of the 7th Light Infantry, Commander Vaissier ; and the 6th Regiment of the Line, Colonel de Camas, vied with them in ardour. Three times they crossed bayonets with the enemy, who only yielded ground after the third charge, upon which he left it strewed with his dead and wounded. The Russian heavy artillery and their field-pieces were very superior in number, and had a commanding position. Two horse batteries, Commander de la Buussiniere, and one battery of the 2nd division of infantry, Commander Barral, the whole under the orders of Colonel Forgeot, sustained, con- currently with the English artillery, the struggle during the entire day. The enemy decided on beating a retreat, leaving behind more than three thousand dead, a very large number of wounded, a few hundred prisoners, as well as several powder chests, in the hands of the allies. His losses in the gross aggregate cannot be put down at less than from 8,000 to 10,000 men. While these events were taking place on the right, about 5,000 men of the garrison made a vigorous sortie on the left of our attack siege. line, under cover of a thick fog and along the ravines that facilitate their approach. The troops on duty in the trenches, under the orders of General de la Motterouge, marched against the enemy, who had already invaded two of our batteries, and repulsed him, killing more than 200 men on the site of these batteries. Lieutenant-General Forey, commanding the siege corps, arrived by rapid and skilful evolutions with the troops of the Fourth Division to the support of the Guards in the trenches, and himself marched at the head of the 6th bat- talion of the Chasseurs a pied. The Russians, repulsed along the whole line, retired precipitately on the fortifi- cation, with considerable loss, when General Lourmel, seeing them fly before him, and carried away by a chival- rous courage, flung himself headlong in the rear with his. brigade, and fell wounded under the very walls of the fortification. General Forey had much difficulty in extri- cating him from the very advanced position to' which, yielding to the impulse of superabundant courage, he had led his brigade. The brigade of Aurelle, which had occu- pied an excellent position on the left, covered his retreat, which was effected not without a certain loss under the fire of the fortifications. Colonel Niol, of the 26th Regi- ment of the line, who lost his two chefs-de-bataillon, had taken the command of the brigade, the energetic conduct of which was beyond all praise. The enemy in this sortie lost a thousand men killed, wounded, or made prisoners, and, in addition to this, received a very considerable moral and physical check. The battle of Inkerman, and the contest maintained by the body of besiegers, has shed great glory on our force's, and has augmented the moral strength which the Allied armies have always possessed. At the same time we have suffered losses which must be regretted. The English army has lost 2,400 men killed or wounded, among which are to be reckoned seven generals, three of whom are killed. The French army has suffered to the extent of 1,726 killed or wounded. We have bitterly to regret the loss of General de Lourmel, since dead' from his wounds, whose brilliant qualities promised a grand career in the future. It is my painful duty also to ac- quaint you with the death of Colonel du Cumas, of the 6th Regiment of the line, killed at the head of his troop, at the very instant in which they came in contact with the enemy. The vigour of the Allied troops, subject as they were to the twofold struggles of a siege of unprecedented diffi- culty, and of battles which recal the greatest struggles of our military history, cannot be too highly praised. THE GENERAL-EN-CHEF, CANROBBET. THE RUSSIAN GENERAL'S DESPATCH. conetxatinsraoprdriinnacreymofentschhe inovAidreepoßrutssoef,thoef battleNovemberA supplement on 14, r a of November 5:— The sortie against the English, directed by General Dannenberg, was very fortunate : eleven guns in the English batteries were spiked. On this the French ar- rived to the support of the English forces. The English siege artillery was placed in position, and it.was not pos- sible for our field artillery to oppose it with advantage. The enemy's superiority in men, armed with carbines, occasions us great losses in horses;:gunners, and officers of infantry. This circumstance did not permit us to finish, at least, without sacrificing the troops, the taking of the redoubts, which we had begun to carry. The retreat was effected in good order, and the dismounted guns were withdrawn from the field to Sebastopol. The Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael were in the midst of this terrible fire, giving an example of courage and sang froict. Simultaneously with this sortie, a regiment of infantry, ‘ecompanied by a light battery of artillery, executed a the French batteries, and spiked fifteen ;ans. Our loss in killed is not exactly known : the number of wounded is 109 officers and 3,500 men. General Soimonoff, who was wounded, has since died, Two other Inerals and five colonels have been wounded. Major- ieral Prince Menschikoff (not the commander-in-chief), qneral, and one colonel have received contusions. General Dannenberg had two horses killed under him, and all the persons who surrounded him have been wounded. The loss of the enemy cannot have been less than ours ; and the sorties have cost the French dear, as, in following in dense masses, they fell under a heavy fire from Bastion No. 6. At the same time that the above movements took place, the troops under Prince Gortschakoff made a strong demonstration on Kadikoi, and kept in action the enemy's force at Balaklava. sortie again DETAILS OF THE BATTLE.

OBSEQUIES OF WILLIAM AIA.CFIE, ESQ.—Friday last was the day fixed for conveying the remains of William Macfie, Esq., of Langhouse, to the place of interment in the West Church burying-ground of his fathers, beside the spot consecrated as the resting place of Burns' " Highland Mary." The funeral was a public one, as a tribute of re- t to the memory of so estimable a citizen.—Greenock ,—Deceased was uncle of R. A.

The funds are derived from what are called the " Ashton Charities," and are governed by trustees, of which Mr. Billinger and Mr. Stock are the managers.

ENOLTSH TESTIMONY We give a few of the many communications we have re. ceived since we have been in England, from those who have experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medi- cine. They must have some weight in convincing the public of its great value. 49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. I. 1851. Gentlemen,—l have much pleasure in testifying to the numerous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you re- quire them. I am doubly pleased to be able to speak to the good effects I have seen myself produced by the Sarsaparilla; for I must confess that, although I was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its virtues, which I would not have believed it possessed, had I not seen it.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, _ - JOHN JA MIESON.

Gentlemen,—l was afflicted with the blind Piles, kind was under medical treatment for three months, but obtained no relief. Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumu- late) corrupt matter copiously discharged, and I almost im- mediately obtained relief. I still continued its use for a time, and not only found relief, but a cure, and am now free from pain. I most sincerely recommend it to all who are similarly affected.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. Was.

London, June 10, 1852. Gentlemen,—My wife has been long afflicted with a nervous complaint, from which she suffered severely. Able physicians and many remedies were tried in vain, but I am happy to in- form you that she has entirely recovered by using a few bottles of Old Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. Messrs.

The same may be said of these as in the cure of t the Oinl ironic maladies effectually wipe off all disagreeable eruptions, and render the surface clear and beautiful.
