Wm. Pollock, incumbent, has exerted himself zealously to have the de- ficiency supplied, and, aided by the support of many in- fluential gentlemen and ladies connected with the district, has been so far successful in the object that a new school. house is to be erected, the first stone of which is to be laid by the mayor, this day, at two o'clock. The intended structure is to occupy the corner of Roscoe-street and Back Knight-street, and will be large enough to contain daily, infant, and Sunday schools, to- gether with a house for the master. On reaching the site of the intended edifice, the minister will read some portions of Scripture, and offer up a prayer suited to the occasion, after which a hymn will be sung. At the conclusion of the hymn, the Rev. W. Pollock will address the mayor, and, in the name of the building committee, will present him with a silver trowel, and his worship will proceed to lay the first stone'of the building. Another prayer will then be said, and the assembly will be addressed by a member of the building committee, after which the National Anthem will be sung, which .• ill complete the ceremonial. ----- In external appearance the design has considerable

briellS ( Louncin all the pli y and toughne of the pure Linen rags rho calogo, miperor Of R he Americans has dray The matte: however, s, tention, except stance of the small artifices to which the C The territory of which Sitka, or New Arc the chief port, belongi to the R kmerica Company, a body analogous to the Hudson's Bay Company, established under charter from the Emperor Paulin 1799, and consists of an archipelago and strip of land on the Pacific coast extending north from Queen Charlotte Island to a noint called Mount St. Elias. The interior rongo of this ;trip is limited to 30 miles, where itis bounded by British North America, but its length is about 400 miles. Sitka, or New Archangel, is its only point of importance, and this simply from its being the spot where all the busi- ness of the company is transacted, including that in con- nection with its large continental possessions from Mount St. Elias to Behring's Straits. The port was founded in 1805, and has been maintained on a considerable scale and at a large expenditure, but if the Russian transactions of which it is now the centre were removed elsewhere it would not only possess no value, but would probably in- volve some expense to maintain it against the Indians. The town is built on the west side of a large island, called Baronoff Island, and the harbour is formed by a number of smaller ones. It is smooth and safe, and impregnable, from its natural defences, while the Russians have also fortified it with a battery which commands every part. It has likewise an arsenal where the company build and repair their vessels—the establishment comprising casting houses, and also boiler-makers, coopers, turners, and every kind of mechanic suitable for such work, even including the building of steam-vessels. The number of Russians at the place is believed, however, not to be more than a few hundred, although they have a bishop of the Orthodox Church with 15 priests, deacons, and followers, supported by the Emperor, and the aboriginal population is likewise extremely scanty. The trade of Sitka in 1842 was esti- mated at 10,000 fur seals, 1,000 sea otters, 12,000 beavers, 2,500 land otters, foxes, martens, &c., and 20,000 sea-horse teeth, but this is the export of the entire Russian possess- sions in North America, and would, of course, be transferred to such new port as they might select after they had sold the territory in question. As to the place being likely to prove valuable to the Americans for their whale fishery, there is nothing to warrant any such expectation, the whole coast being too forbidding and inhospitable to tempt the vessels in that trade to depart from their usual course of running down to the Sandwich Islands, were everything they can require is immediately available. The purchase, therefore, would be a barren one, and as the parting with it would put the Russian American Company to serious inconvenience, the only motive of the Czar in the transac- tion would obviously lie in the hope of giving us a trouble- some neighbour. As he would, however, also bring this neighbour to himself, and the trade of his American pos- sessions is carried on in the most exclusive spirit—the natives not being allowed to traffic with strangers—it will remain for him to consider whether he may not ultimately realise from the affair another instance equal to those he has already experienced of the peril of clumsily plotting against others. THE CONVICT ESTABLISIIMENT AT DORCHESTER.— The announcement, that in consequence of the outbreak of cholera in the Millbank Prison, the government had decided on fitting up the vacant barracks at Dorchester for the reception of the convicts, created no little excite- ment in that borough. As soon as the intelligence reached Dorchester that a number of government artificers had been sent down to prepare the place for the reception of the Millbank prisoners, the mayor (Mr. Geo. Andrews) proceeded by express to London, and in an interview with Viscount Palmerston at the Home-office, he strongly pro- tested in the name of the inhabitants against the rash resolve of the government in imperilling the lives of the residents by bringing a large body of men peculiarly liable to the disease from the scene of contagion. A meeting of the Town-council was also specially convened, and, after considerable discussion, it was resolved to forward a me- morial to Lord Palmerston, the Home Secretary, praying the government to reconsider their determination. The result of these measures was a statement from the Under- Secretary of State, to the effect that the subject com- plained of had already been maturely considered ; that a strong and pressing necessity existed for the removal of the healthy portion of the convicts, who were entirely free from choleraic symptoms ; that, after full inquiry, the barracks outside the town of Dorchester had been deemed the most eligible, and that, as every precaution would be taken, no danger whatever could be apprehended. A warm altercation ensued on this topic at a hastily sum- moned meeting of the corporation, when the alarmists were met by several gentlemen, one of whom observed that the convicts must be disposed of somewhere, and that they could not be sent to a more healthy locality ; even if the government should choose another spot, there would still be the same aversion to the proposal on the part of the inhabitants of the immediate district. He, therefore, thought it would be only humane and proper on their part to show a frank and ready acquiescence in the proposition and orders of the government. This appeared to be the feeling of the majority of the people of Dorchester, the hostility to the occupation of the barracks by the Mill- bank convicts being evidently more warmly manifested in the corporate body. After the arrival of the first batch of 300 prisoners per London and South-Western Railway, however, several families grew more excited, and at once prepared to leave the town; and at another meeting of the municipal authorities it was resolved to memorialise his Royal Highness Prince Albert, who is lord of the neighbouring manor of Fordington, to use his inf'uence to prevent the temporary transfer of the Milbank prisoners to Dorchester. These efforts, however, hate been totally unsuccessful. The convicts are now housed in Dorchester cavalry barracks, which they seem,. t 9, Pig swt4 OW: their late quarters.

RK3IIIRE DIVIDEXD.—The Erectors of 31 per cent. per now learn tin' IR. ( nd Mr. Spence, Sandbach at his beau- SON, the celebrated sculptor s pupil, spent last week with IT tifut seat'iii Wales. Mr. Spence returned to Liverpool a few days since, and Mr. Gibson will be here this week. On Mr. Gibson's arrival from Rome, he spent several days with Mrs. Huskisson._ _ THE NEW LAW.—On Friday there were no less than fifty-six publicans' and beerhouse cases heard before the magistrates. One-half of those summoned were beer- house-keepers, who alleged in their defence that they thought the new beer act allowed them to keep open to twelve o'clock on Saturday. About a dozen of the infor- mations for Sunday trading were laid under the new act. THE LITE CHARGE OE FORGERY AGAINST A LIVER- POOL MERCHANT.—In the course of the proceedings in the Crown Court, on Wednesday, before Baron Platt, it was announced that John Thomas Haselden, a tea-broker, who was committed for trial on a charge of having uttered a forged order for the delivery of two hundred chests of tea, with intent to defraud Mr. William Cross, had ab- sconded, and gone to America. His recognizances were consequently estreated. He was bailed in two sureties of £5OO each. THE ATHENIAN, new screw steamer, built by Messrs. Smith and Rogers, of the Clyde, which arrived here on Friday week, has been fully equipped, and sailed on Satur- day with a cargo of 1,100 tons. The Athenian is the se- cond of four vessels to form an augmentation to J. W. Fakelough and Co.'s line of Levant Steamers. Two others (in frame), the Egyptian and the Armenian, will be launched before the close of the year. THE LUSITA.NIA, South American and General Steam Navigation Company's steamer, Captain Brown, took her departure on Thursday hence for the Brazils and the River Plate, with thirty passengers, a full cargo, and a large mail. This will be her last voyage, as, since the company have obtained the government contract for the conveyance of mails, she has been found to be too small for the trade. She has been sold to the Imperial Steam Navigation Company of France, to whom she will be transferred on her return. ANNUAL LICENSING SESSION.—The annual session for renewing and granting licenses commenced on Thursday, Police-office, in High-street, before Alderman S. nd Mr. J. H. Turner. Before commencing the business, Mr. Holme remarked that, as there had-been great irregularity at the last session, the magistrates had determined that parties applying for licenses must attend personally. The renewals were then proceeded with, and occupied the greater portion of the day. To-morrow (Wednesday) the applications for new licenses will be heard, and on the following day the applications from several of ,ies who are objected against, on account of fines, &bout 800 licenses were renewed on ThursUa Ld nearly 700 on Friday A Lr vr npooL SHIP-OWNER.—In the tcy Court, London, on Wednesday, John Solo- t, Liverpool, ship-owner and mer- )ass his last examination. The balance ed by the bankrupt commences on the first of late Of Duke.: t, applied to January, 1850, at the period when he was carryin business at Liverpool, and ends in March, 1854- The balance sheet contains, according to the list of creditors, the names of between 30 and 40 inhabitants of Liverpool, and also of captains and others employed in - running from Liverpool to Australia, and ►r wages due to them. No opposition was bankrupt's accounts, and he passed his Renewed protection having been granted I examination le certificate meeting, the sroceed- INIELINatoI ACCIDENT AT WATERLoo.—A boy, two crowned on Thursday afternoon, nd a half old, was shore, at Waterla umstances so st led ever since over firm of ek Brothers with 1, London Mrs. Peek, stoppiiiB a their grandfather Esq., of Grove-house, Shelton, Staffordshire, ii NEW STEAMERS.—Two new first-rate screw steamers have been ordered to be built, which, a naval contemporary says, " will be the finest and most powerful that the world has yet produced." One will be of 3,950 tons, 215 feet in length by 61 feet in breadth ; and one of 4,116 tons, 260 feet in length and 60 feet wide. AN ECCENTRIC M.P.—Mr. Divett, M.P. for Exeter, went to the House of Commons, a few nights before the close of the session, clothed from head to foot, from toe to crown, in bright nankeen, which clung to him like a second skin, something after the fashion of one of Astley's acrobats. _ THE GREAT " Snos QUESTION" in India has been decided. Natives are required to take off their slippers when they enter the presence of the Governor-General ; but many adopt European dress —are they to pull off their boots ? This is the last regulation—Natives wearing boots, pantaloons, and straps, will not be required to appear barefooted. Sconn LOYALTT.—On the Bth instant, the Earl of Meath presided at an agricultural dinner at Edinburgh. For some reason no toast whatever was proposed. Cries of " The Queen ! the Queen !" were unnoticed, and then a " round robin" was sent to the chairman, stating that unless the toast was given, the company would leave the table. Upon this the chairman made matters worse by rising and giving the Queen's health as an eminent agri- culturist,and then sitting down. Csunms SWALLOWS.—An experiment has just been successfully made of employing swallows to carry letters. Six swallows taken in their nests at Paris were conveyed by railway to Vienna, and there let go, with a small roll of paper, containing 1,510 words, under the wing of each. They were let go at a quarter after seven in the morning ; two arrived at Paris a few minutes before one, one at a quarter past two, and the other two did not make their appearance at all. MURDER.—On Tuesday morning, a wife was murdered by her husband at Rochester. Mr. G. H. Smith, post- master at Jersey, was lodging in a house in the town with his wife; about eight o'clock on Tuesday morning he came down and told the mistress of the house that he had shot his wife, and desired her to send for a policeman and a doctor. The unfortunate lady was found in bed, shot through the back of the neck, and by direction of the husband, pistols were found under the mattress. The wretched man was in a lunatic asylum six months ago. GRAIN CROPS IN AmEnicA.—The harvest in the United States is expected to be one-fourth in yield above that of last year. We learn from a gentleman who has traversed Canada from London to Montreal, and visited much of the interior, that the wheat crop of Upper Canada will far exceed that of any other year in its amount. It is estimated that a third more was sown last year than the year before, and it all looks flourishing. The surplus last year is estimated at 7,000,000 bushels. This year it is calculated the surplus will reach 12,000,000 bushels. Estimating the price at only $1 50c per bushel, it gives the farmers $18,000,000 for wheat alone for a foreign market.—Aberdeen Journal. between the Board of Trade, the Lords Of the Treasury, and the India Board, relative to the possibility of discovering some new material for making paper, and thus to meet the The India Board have communica present scarcity report by Dr. J.

YESTERDAY, at noon, a number of members of the corporation, and some of the most influential merchants in the town, attended at the office of the Liverpool Dock Committee, to inspect an elaborately and beautifully- wrought model of Mr. Grantham's proposed high-level railway for the town and docks. Among those present we observed Mr. Stewart, Mr. C. Bushell, Mr. Alderman Bennett, Mr. Tomlinson, Mr. Beckwith, Mr. Ald. Gardner, Mr. J. Hubback, Mr. T. Baines, &c., &c. The model, which is on the comprehensive scale of one-sixteenth of an inch to the foot, exhibited the advantages of the pro- posed scheme much more clearly than any verbal or written description could possibly convey. It will remain for several days on private view at the Dock-office, when it will be removed to a convenient place for public in- spection. At the request of Mr. C. Bushell, and in reply to ques- tions put to him by gentlemen in the room, Mr. GRANT- HAM, C.E., described the main features of the scheme. He said, in the first place, the railway, as projected, was to be as long as the working parts of the docks, whatever they might be; at present they were four miles long, and ere long they would be five miles. It was proposed to be placed on the east side of the whole line of the docks, to consist of iron frame work, supporting two platforms the lower about 52 feet wide, and 20 fee - nays, entirel, present having four lines of railway, the two nearest the docks to be used as sidings for trucks while loading and unloading, and the other two as up and down lines for trucks in motion. The;two used for loading and unloading would be so arranged as to sweep the ships and the cranes at the same time. The upper platform would be about 23 feet wide, would have two lines of railway, and would be entirely for passengers. The height to which passengers would have to ascend would ba 35 feet, or less than the height of many existing rail- way stations. The lower platform would be provided with hydraulic cranes, Which would transfer goods either from or to the vessels or the trucks, as well as work through the hatchways in the platform to the quays. The quays would be used as at present, the railway occupying the position of the present sheds on the eastern quays. The greater part of the space under the lower platform might be enclosed, and by these means greatly increased shed space would be gained ; and ample light being given as required, excellent lock-up transit or deposit sheds would be avail- able. The continuous length of docks made them peculiarly adapted for the construction of the railway, as there was only one curve, and that not of a serious nature, in the whole range. At every great inlet from the town there would be stations for the reception of passengers, the most important one being at the bottom of Chapel-street, where it would be found of great convenience to people coming from 'Change and wishing to go northward. That build- ing in the model was larger than it need be, if used merely as a station ; but he also proposed that it should supply the purposes of the Custom-house depot, which he proposed to remove. Other passenger stations along the line could be provided by projecting the space 10 feet out, and thus making room for a platform. For the accommodation of passengers getting on at the central station, he proposed to throw a bridge, to be approached by a staircase from Chapel-street to the station, in order to avoid the cart traffic on the highway. He proposed to construct other bridges near the Custom-house, James-street, and one at the Canal Bank, in Ball-street, to com- municate with Oldhall-street and other places. Covered bridges at Chapel-street and James-street would provide safe access to the pierheads for pedestrians. The goods department he proposed should be entirely worked by horses at present, as the goods had only to be removed short distances at a time ; and he suggested that the pas- senger trains should run every ten minutes. Before pro- ceeding, to the mode of connecting the docks, by means of the railway, with the private warehouses inland, he wished to draw attention to the fact that the scheme was entirely independent of warehouses, private or public; and he wished to keep it so. But his object was to show by what means such a connection could be obtained. He then explained, and referred to the model in illustration, that the railway could be connected, by a high-level bridge across Bath-street, with the warehouses in Brook-street, Launcelot's-hey, and the Gloree ; that lines of high-level •railway could run round them, or in such places as would be found most convenient ; that they could readily be extended to the warehouses behind ; and that,:by means •of bridges, the high-level railway could be connected with our great railways, and with the private warehouses iu the town; and that the proprietors of private coal-yards might avail themselves of this simple mode of obtaining easy communication with the docks. Having shown what facilities the scheme would furnish for the use of the most approved machinery, which could not be generally worked under the present arrangements,he stated that the proposed scheme would enable the Dock Committee to establish auni- form rate of carriage for all the distance—tending to effect that centralization of the work of the docks, so much re- quired. It had been stated by some that the omnibusses would be able to meet all the wants of the town; but if they were to widen the streets considerably, and increase the kind of accommodation they at present had, they would never be able to comply with the wishes and demands of the public; whereas by the adoption of this scheme, the more they went northward, the more their dock property was improved. He proposed to widen out Strand-street, and to erect a station there of about 800 feet long into which the passenger line could run, coming from north and south; and the rails could be so placed that they could run the carriage into a siding, and so keep the main line clear. There was only one place where the proposed railway would cause more than existing obstruction, and that was at the Old Church Yard, where the space allowed for traffic was even now allowed to be much too narrow. Mr. Alderman BENNETT asked if Mr. Grantham could tell them what would be the probable cost of constructing the railway ? Mr. GRINTTIA.3I replied that it would be almost impos- sible to give estimates until the principle and details of the scheme were affirmed. The present high rate of money, and the increased cost of labour and materials, also ren- dered any correct approximation very difficult. But making due allowance for these, it was believed that, in its working state, including hydraulic cranes and plat- forms, with stationary steam-power to work them, the cost would be under £250,000 a mile. Then it should not be forgotten that the quays were the property of the Dock Estate, and that, consequently, no land would have to be purchased, and no compensation made to private owners. It was probable, therefore, that a company could be formed to farm the passenger traffic upon advantageous terms, leaving the goods lines, the sidings, the cranes, and the additional covered quay space entirely free, and under the control of the Dock Estate. There was another important consideration in the fact that, estimating the value of the space gained by the platforms of the railway at the low rate of £5 a yard, there would be a gain of about £210,000 mile, or nearly equal to the cost of the proposed scheme. would also, by the adoption of the plan, great part of the sum contemplated for widen- ing the streets. The Corporatio be spared a -After some further information had been elicited, in the course of which Mr. Grantham stated that the erec- tion of any large building or works on the route of the proposed line would prove fatal to the scheme, and ought, therefore, to be prevented, the visitors withdrew. SUDDEN DEATIL—A woman, named Martha Freeman aged about 61, while engaged in washing her floor, in No. 3 Court, BOundary-stieet, Kirkdale, on-Saturday fore- noon, fell down and suddenly expired. On a post mortem examination it was found that the cause of death was aneurism of the aorta. SUDDEN DEA.TIL—On Sunday morning, about ten o'clock, as a man, aged 20, named William Savage, was assisting in removing a flat from the Queen's Basin, to go into the river, he, while pushing with a pole, suddenly fell backwards overboard. On being assisted up, he gave three groans and almost instantly expired. The cause of death has been ascertained to have been aneurism of the aorta. SUICIDE IN TEE RIVER YESTEEDAY.—About eleven o'clock yesterday morning, a coal-heaver who was working on board a flat alongside the steamer Iron Duke, moored just off Birkenhead Ferry, deliberately threw off his jacket and waistcoat, saying "here goes for a dive," and jumped into the river. For some time he swain remarka- bly well towards the shore, and then suddenly disappeared. A small boat with two men in it was in the immediate neighbourhood, but as they supposed the man merely wished to escape on shore they did not proceed towards him until too late. His body was not recovered. • SPECIAL MEETING OF THE TOWN COIINCIL.—A special meeting of the Council is to be held to-morrow (Wednesday). The business fixed for consideration of the meeting is :-1. The Report of the Special Committee appointed on the 7th day of June last, for making arrange- ments for the opening of St. George's Hall by the Coun-,i, and to pass such resolutions and instructions with reference to that subject as the Council may think proper.-2. The Mayor's communications. CHILDREN OVERLAIN.—On Sunday morning Mary Beattie, wife of Joseph Beattie, residing at Gerard-street, on awaking about six o'clock, found their infant daughter, about four months old, dead in bed. Deceased had been quite well when its father and mother went to bed, about one in the morning. The mother, who keeps a stall in the 'market, had been much fatigued, and during her sleep she had accidentally overlain the child, which was quite dead when the mother awoke.—On Friday morning, Mary O'Hare, an infant, ten weeks old, residing with its mother in No. 18 Court, Albert-street, Toxteth-park, was found in bed dead, under nearly similar circumstances. DANGEROUS AccinpicT.—Yesterday afternoon, about two &clock, as a young lady, accompanied by another lady, was bathing on the beach near New Brighton, she, from some cause, was carried off her feet, and out of her depth. An alarm was instantly given, assistance was promptly rendered, and, with considerable difficulty, she was removed from her perilous position. The young lady, whose name, we understand, is Miss Rogerson, from Fazakerley, and was residing with Mr. Harrison, South-hill, Torteth-park, was, under the direction of Mr. Lyth, surgeon, Claughton, conveyed to the Marine Hotel, where, under his care, she was, with some difficulty, restored to consciousness. PARKGATE.—The Cheshire magistrates have given great umbrage to the people of Parkgate, by having granted an additional spirit-license there, in opposition to a memorial, signed by nearly all the resident householders around. We hear that a public meeting is to be held on the subject, gr.d a memorial to the Secretary of State is talked of. There are already five or six public-houses in that small village, which offer quite temptation enough to the bibulous propensities of the fishing population, who indulge in excesses very annoying to visitors, by whom the place is chiefly supported.

GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW STEAMERS.;—TWO new first-rate screw steamers have been ordered to be built, which, a naval contemporary will be the finest and most powerful that the world hal Yet produced." One will be d 3,950 tons, 215 feet in length by 61 feet in breadth ; and one of 4,116 tons, 260 feet in length and 60 feet wide. AN ECCENTRIC M.P.—Mr. Divett, M.P. for Exeter, went to the House of Commons, a few nights.before the close of the session, clothed from head to foot, from toe to crown, in bright nankeen, which clung to him like a second skin, something after the fashion of one of Astley's acrobats. TILE GREAT "Sims QUESTION" in India has been decided. Natives are required to take off their slippers when they enter the presence of the Governor-General ; but many adopt European dress—are they to pull off their boots ? This is the last regulation—Natives wearing boots, pantaloons, and straps, will not be required to appear barefooted. SCOTCH LOYALTY.—On the Bth instant, the Earl of Meath presided at an agricultural dinner at Edinburgh. For some reason no toast whatever was proposed. Cries of " The Queen ! the Queen !" were unnoticed, and then a " round robin" was sent to the chairman, stating that unless the toast was given, the company would leave the table. Upon this the chairman made matters worse by rising and giving the Queen's health as an eminent agri- culturist, and then sitting down. CAREIER SwinLows.—An experiment has just been successfully made of employing swallows to carry letters. Six swallows taken in their nests at Paris were conveyed by railway to Vienna, and there let go, with a small roll of paper, containing 1,510 words, under the wing of each. They were let go at a quarter after seven in the morning; two arrived at Paris a few minutes before one; one at a quarter past two, and the other two did not make their appearance at all. MunnEn.—On Tuesday morning, a wife was murdered by her husband at Rochester. Mr. G. IL Smith, post- master at Jersey, was lodging in a house in the town with his wife; about eight o'clock on Tuesday morning he came down and told the mistress of the house that he had shot his wife, and desired her to send for a policeman and a doctor. The unfortunate lady was found in bed, shot through the back of the neck, and by direction of the husband, pistols were found under the mattress. The wretched man was in a lunatic asylum six months ago. GRAIN CROPS IN Amsnice..—The harvest in the United States is expected to be one-fourth in yield above that of last year. We learn from a gentleman who has traversed Canada from London to Montreal, and visited much of the interior, that the wheat crop of Upper Canada will far exceed that of any other year in its amount. It is estimated that a third more was sown last year than the year before, and it all looks flourishing. The surplus last year is estimated at 7,000,000 bushels. This year it is calculated the surplus will reach 12,000,000 bushels. Estimating the price at only $1 50c per bushel, it gives the farmers $18,000,000 for wheat alone for a foreign market.—Aberdeen Journal. MATERIALS FOE PAPER.—A correspondence has passed between the Board of Trade, the Lords of the Treasury, and the India Board, relative to the possibility of discovering some new material for making paper, and thus to meet the present scarcity. The India Board have communicated a report by Dr. J. Forbes Boyle, their officer in charge of the scientific correspondence relating to the vegetable productions of•lndia, in which he points at several sources in that country from which he thinks material for paper might be derived :—" The fibrous part of many lily and aloe-leaved plants have been converted into excellent paper in India, where the fibres of tiliaceous, malvaceous, and leguminous plants are employed for the same purpose. As in the Himalayas, one of the lace-bark tribe is similarly employed, and in• China one of the mulberry tribe, and the nettle in Holland. I mention these various sources, because plants belonging to the same families as the above abound in India and other, warm countries, and are capable of yielding a very abundant and never-failing supply of sufficiently cheap and very excellent materials for paper making of all kinds. Some may be used without any further process of bleaching, but all are capable of having any colour they may possess destroyed by chemical means, as I would not except the jute canvas or gummy bagging, because I have seen specimens of jute of a beautiful silky white, both plain and manufactured into fabrics for furni- ture, &c., as shown by the late Colonel Calvert at the East India-house. As the Chinese make paper of rice, straw, and of the young shoots of the bamboo, while the Hindoos make ropes of different grasses (such as Saccharum Munja and Saccharum Sara,) strong enough for their Persian wheels as well as for towing-lines, it is evident that these, and probably many others, contain a sufficiency of fibrous material for paper making." Mr. Boyle goes on to mention the plantain, which is so extensively cultivated for its fruit in all tropical countries, and the fibre of which, he thinks, might be separated at a price of £9 13s. 4d. per ton ; the flax-plant of that class which is cultivated for its seed, the Indian ram-turai, several species of hibiteus, &c., &c. On the same subject an American paper, the Long Island Vindicator, says :--"Dr. Antisel has invented a pulp, which, in its raw state, will not cost more than about one sixth of a cent per pound, and, by the aid of a machine, invented by Mr. Nolan, can be brought into file market, and made into paper, at a cost of about four cents per pound. Paper at present costs about sixteen cents, so that the value of the invention can at once be seen. The material from which the pulp is manufactured will flourish and grow abundantly in ground that is at present useless to the farmer. We have seen and examined specimens of , the pulp, and have no hesitation in pronowie g it ju:

CAPTURE OF BOMARSUND. AFTER a brave and obstinate resistance to the allied forces, the fortresses of Bomarsund and 2,000 prisoners have surrendered. The energy with which they defended their position may be imagined when we state that, while the investment commenced on the 4th inst., the capture was not effected until the 16th inst. The land forces con- sisted of 11,000 men under General Baraguay d'llilliers ; and the bombardment by the fleets was conducted by Sir Charles Napier. On the 4th inst. the Phlegethon and Amphion, having taken 'up a position where the enemy's guns could not reach them, commenced a heavy fire upon one of the earth- work batteries, and reduced it in half-an-hour, when the men landed and spiked the guns. On the sth the Stromboli, Amphion, and Phlegethon directed their fire against the first round tower and long fort, in order to distract the attention of the enemy and permit the land forces of 11,000 men to secure their posi- tion on shore. The centre wing of the army encamped for the night in and around a large village at a distance of two miles from the tower which they were destined to attack. This tower, from its elevated position, commands a great portion of the. surrounding country ; and here General Baraguay d'Hilhers had determined to make the first assault, as in the capture of this the key to the long fort was secured. The small steamships were employed all day in carryingprovisions, ammunition, &c., to the shore. In the evening the Amphion moored in front of the battery that had been destroyed, to prevent the enemy reinstating their guns. On the 10th the Penelope was placed in a very awkward predicament. In attempting to thread the passage between the two islands, she got on shore within range of the long forts who played on her for two hours and a-half. The Admiral had at once ordered all boats to her assistance, and the Hecla and Pigmy came through the passage as well, to attempt to tow her off. A signal to the Edinburgh and Valorous caused them immediately to commence throwing shells into the fort from ten-inch guns, which they did with impunity, being without the range of the forts. A little after twelve o'clock the Penelope was removed from her critical position, the Admiral having ordered all her guns to be thrown overboard, when the Hecla at once towed her away. On the 13th the first round fort opened on the Chassenrs, as their field-pieces were crossing the valley. The French now began the bombardment in reality. After half an hour's practice they obtained a beautiful range, and kept up all day a tremendous cannonade. By four p.m. they had silenced three of the guns, and a flag of trace waa put out from a port-hole : they demanded a two hours' truce to bury their .dead, and made use of the one hour :Lila-

actually writes himself concerning it—' •g‘ SUCH IS THE APOLOGY WHICH I OFFER FOR THE LIVERPOOL CLERGY IN WRITING A PRIVATE LETTER TO STRANGERS. HAD I IN- TENDED TO WRITE A GENTLER PROSPECTUS FOR THE EYES OF THE LIVERPOOL PUBLIC, SHOULD I HAVE SUPPRESSED THIS PARAGRAPH ?" This is really all but incredible It is the most marvellous instance of self-possession—the most extraordinary comment on language—l ever remember to have met with. But it saves me the trouble of quoting again at length Mr. Wray's private letter. This being its "gentlest" language, what must be its character throughout? Containing this "APOLOGY FOR THE LIVERPOOL CLERGY," what must have been its assaults upon them 1 Did I say that the letter was "steeped in bitterness ?" Nay, it was grievous misrepresentation ! I ought. in common with all my bre- thren, to have been full of gratitude to oar apologist ; and, beyond question, gentleness like his ought to have accom- plished the end of "shaming me into a more conciliatory tone !" for such, Mr. Wray deliberately tells us, is the "hope" he entertains in his gentle dealings with his brethren. There are several important points not yet noticed in the letters of Mr. Pughe and Mr. Wray, on which, however, I shall not pause at any great length. I say little, then, of Mr. Pughe's "utter ignorance that two editions of the letter existed," and of his still continuing to "forward many hun- dreds of copies" of the first " during the last year and a half," while we learn, on the other hand, from Mr. Wray, that there have been, in fact, not two editions, but several, (a " second and subsequent editions,") " the date being altered, anti verbal alterations made as each hundred or two were struck off!" Has poor Mr. Pnghe, then, been condemned to circu- late still the first letter only, with all "its expressions likely to give offence?" Has it been utterly withheld from him that his Incumbent had prepared revised editions, exceedingly different in their tone: and that they, too, were going out by hundreds, appearing in the public journals, and receiving all the while progressive revision and emendation? This was hardly fair toward the Curate of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields ; but let Mr. Wray and Mr. Pughe settle it between them. Again, I can afford to bestow no more than a glance in on Mr. \S ray's explanation of his omission, in his published prospectus, of his foriner Churchmanlike allusion to his brethren here of the United Church, who had "come from Ireland." Only Ido not wish for a moment to have the appearance of acrepting his off-hand statement that " in that island an indifferpre to ritual proprieties is notorious ;" and I give to it, as I go along, a decided and unqualified contradiction. At the proper ti:ne and place, I should be prepared to contend, and to prove, that in Ireland the Rubrics are, aillikrule, at least equally, and perhaps, more observed than in this country. It is, however, very certainand this, perhaps, is Mr. Wray's true quarrel with Ireland—that as its soil refuses absolutely to foster the snake or the toad, so also the atmosphere of her Church is ill adapted to the Romaniser. We know too much of the real thing, to be satisfied with the sham in Ireland. Once more, a single word of "a verbal alteration" of Mr. Wray, which, however it may tell on his ingenuousness, does some credit to his ingenuity. He talks of his brethren now but as "Enemies to these principles," and puts the word "enemies" in inverted commas, as though it had been the phrase at the first employed by him. Every one, however, will feel how much this adept in the mitigation of language has softened down his original phraseology, in which, when he called for a bold assault on "the strongholds of Puritanism," he simply and broadly declared, in all the power and solidity of the singular concrete, that this chief town of the provinces was "in the hands of THE ENEMY." But, in truth, I am weary, and so also must your readers be, of these investigations of morbid anatomy; and I shall merely draw public attention, in closing, to the following facts which have been elicited in the present controversy. They are worthy of our most serious consideration.

THE WAR. A despatch, dated Vienna, Tuesday, says :—General Be- butoff had defeated 60,000 Turks, near Kars. Three thou- sand were killed ; 2,300 soldiers and 84 officers taken pri- soners. Fifteen pieces of cannon, and the Turkish camp fell into the hands of the victors. [lt may be observed that this despatch gives no date, nor even an indication of its route to the Austrian capital.] A despatch from Warsaw, coming consequently from a Russian source, confirms the news that the Turkish army had been completely beaten and dispersed by General Bebutoff, near Kars, in Asia. Letters from Rutschuk, of the Bth, have been received at Vienna. They state that 60,000 Russians were about to be concentrated on the right bank of the Pruth, under General Luders, in order to cover the Russian flotilla in the Danube, which would be sacrificed by the evacuation of Galatz. Letters have been received from Berlin, of the 20th, to the effect that, on the previous day, Prince Gortschakoff had received the answer of the Russian cabinet to the propositions of the other Powers. It is said that Russia does not absolutely reject them, and even recognises them as capable of being made the bases of new negotiations, after certain modifications in reference to the common protectorate of the Principalities, and the preservation, in their integrity, of the privileges of the Greek Christians. BRITISH HEROISM.—A Varna letter of the 9th con- tains the following :—Mr. Burke's body was found after the action in which he lost his life with no less than 33 wounds upon it. The Russians had taken his sword-belt, but his sword was found hidden in some long grass close to the corpse. The ring finger of both hands was cut off. He was seen by the sapper who went with him fighting desperately to the last, though surrounded by a horde of Russians. When he first leapt on shore from the boat, six soldiers charged him. Two he shot with his revolver, one he cut down with his sword—the rest turned and fled. While he was encouraging the Turks, who were in the stream, to row quietly to the land, and forming them in line as they landed, conspicuous as he was in full uniform and by his white cap cover, a number of riflemen advanced from behind a ditch, and took deliberate aim at him. Poor Burke charged them with headlong gallantry. As he got near he was struck by a ball, which broke his jaw-bone, but he rushed on, shot three men dead at close quarters with his revolver, and cleft two men through helmet and all into the brain with his sword: He was then sur- rounded, and while engaged in cutting his way with heroic courage through the ranks of the enemy, a sabre cut from behind, given by a dragoon as he went by, nearly severed his head from his body; and he fell dead, covered with bayonet wounds, sabre gashes, and marked with lance thrusts and bullet holes. The sapper who was with him stood by Mr. Burke till the last, but could not save him. He is now only recovering from his wound and the effect of his exertions."

TUE proceedings of HER MAJESTY and the Royal Family, at this period of the year, form a topic of general interest to most classes. Relieved, to some extent at least, from the more urgent cares of State, our gracious SOVEREIGN usually devotes a portion of this season to a discharge of those more immediately domestic duties, in the observance of which she shines with so conspicuous a lustre. On Tuesday last, along with her Royal Consort, and accompanied by the Maharajah DULEEP SINGII, and other distinguished Orientals and foreigners, she proceeded in the Victoria and Albert yacht to the Needles, to witness the shell and ball practice of the new screw-sloop Arrow. At a quarter past five the firing commenced, and for some time it was continued with a very odd singularity of result. The first shell burst on leaving the muzzle of the mortar; the second performed a da capo, or repetition of the same dangerous marvel; at "peal the third" the light-house people were astounded—the fourth discharged lowered their flag, and, ere the fifth had "rattled in their ears," they were fain to hang out a flag of truce and sue for mercy. The Arrow, instead of being shot " o'er the house," and wounding its gunner's " brother," had been shot nearly point blank upon the light-house, and inflicted on it serious damage. On Wednesday, the annual fete was given by the QUEEN and PRINCE ALBERT to the work-people, at Osborne, in celebration of the PRINCE'S birth-day. It was, as usual, a scene of much gaiety, and the customary amount of good feeling was displayed on the occasion. Thursday was occupied by PRINCE ALBERT in laying the foundation-stone of St. Thomas's Church, in Newport, Isle of Wight. The ceremony was farther graced by the presence of the BISHOP of the Diocssit and Lord HETTESBURY, the Governor of the Island. The day of the Royal departure for the North has not yet been fixed with certainty. From an announcement in the Liverpool Standard, on whose authority I perceive the Times and other London journals rely, it appears that the inauguration of the magnificent edifice, St. George's-hall, and the formal ceremony of opening your splendid Temples of Justice, are not to be graced by the august presence of HER MAJESTY and PRINCE ALBERT, the absence of whom will be sincerely regretted by all right-minded people, and will be rejoiced in by none, unless some small section of the Cottonopolitan grandees find consolation in the circumstance. The parliamentary performances of the season having terminated, and the mass of the stock company having retired to the provinces, some for the purpose of starring, and others to recruit their somewhat exhausted stock of political popularity, the stage has been left clear for the talents of another set of performers, and these, nothing loath, have engaged in a display of vagaries which even the professors of the legitimate political drama may well be disposed to regard with complacency, if not with envy. A circumstance, not a little remarkable, in connexion with these non-parliamentary performances, is the fact, that notwithstanding their non-legislative character, they have, in not a few instances, a direct tendency to bring scandals upon the public institutions of the country. Conspicuous among the non-parliamentary escapades of the day has been the pertinacity with which, through evil report and adverse opinion, the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER has stood by his friend and protege, Mr. FRANCIS LAwLEY. This gentleman, who was found weak enough to be unfit for representing Beverley, who was not quite good enough for the administration of South Australia, whose practical knowledge in turf arrange- ments, like his acquaintance with the morals of Capel Court, led him always to play a losing, and so, in Sir GEORGE GREY'S estimation, a highly-honourable game in private life, was yet deemed worthy of confidence in Downing-street, and fully entitled to represent the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, as his private secretary. The gross impropriety of his continuing in such an office never appears to have suggested itself to the high-minded Mr. GLADSTONE. A correspondence, arising out of a dispute between the London omnibus proprietors and the rnment, having been conducted by Mr. LAWLEY in martial held at Windsor on the charge ag' his own name, as secretary to the CnixcELLos of the EXCIIEQtER, revealed the obnoxious secret—tha Press, in the due discharge of its public duty, exposed and de- ain st L flounced the impropriety of having so important a position confided to the care of one who had been accused, and, in spite of his own denial, convicted of speculating on the Stock Exchange, and gambling in " horse affairs." The assault of the Press has been as damaging to the Glad- stonian xgis thrown over Mr. LiWLEY, as the attack of the French artillery has been fatal to the prestige of field has been broken, and the to his fate. The Globe has been tenant PEWIT. As has been well said in the Times, "It is no longer the case of a mess-room against a friendless tern; but, if need be, a determined contest between the public opinion of this country on the one hand, and the administration of the army on the other." By a peculiar subal- process of management, it may be possible to conduct this inquiry in such a manner as to huddle up the studied offences against common decency and good behaviour, which prevailed in the officers' barracks of the 46th Regi- ment. By the arrangements of a court-martial it may be easy to prevent a full exposure of the nefarious combina- tion which has been set on foot to drive an unfriended young man from the service of his country. The clever organization of regimental memory may overcome the forms of inquiry allowed by such a tribunal for ascertain- ing the conduct, estimating the behaviour, and weighing the demeanour of a superior officer in his intercourse with juniors and subalterns. It may even for a time be pos- sible to evade or stifle all investigation into such matters, so loudly and indignantly called for by an anxiously in- terested public ; but the facts already established, and the practices demonstrated to have prevailed in the regiment referred to, cannot be obliterated from public memory, but will be treasured up for use, in the farther examina- tion which sooner or later must be made into the matter. It affects too deeply the character of an important branch of the public service to be allowed to drop, and on the re- assembling of Parliament, if not before then, the inquiry will be resumed by parties less interested in throwing a friendly shadow over the more glaring portions of the picture, than that tribunal in whose eyes the military dignity of the accuser had obviously more weight than the stern behests of justice,—the acquired honours of the prosecutor will not be thrown into the scale against the "unvarnished tale" of the oppressed. The curtain which shrouded the mysteries of the mess-table and the barrack-room has been so far and so untenderly lifted at the Windsor inquiry, that it will no longer serve the pur- poses of concealment. We have had placed before us a part nr.sq uerade, which even our fathers had e their day dismissed of the melo-dramat granite batteries ; the s' object of its fondlyimagiued to have been 1. are abandon instructed to state that Mr. L A.WLEY'S appointment was merely ofa " temporary" kind, and that he has now ceased to hold his confidential post. None but the merestgo be-mo uch es place the slightest reliance on this averment. In all the clubs it is broadly affirmed that Mr. LAWLEY never ceased to be private secretary to Mr. GLADSTONE ; that even if his Australian appointment had been held good, he would, up to the present time, have retained his secretaryship ; and that after that appointment was so properly cancelled, Mr. GLADSTONE, if the fact had been left unnoticed, would have continued him as his private secretary. Such a belief may speak favourably for the warmth and durability of Mr. GLADSTONE'S private friendships, but the fact is generally looked on as very damaging to his character for discretion as a public officer. Another subject much can- vassed at present, and also declared to involve a public scandal, is the effort made by Lord Jonx RussELL to still farther vitiate the character of the Parliamentary Consti- tuency, by the introduction of a £6, instead of a £lO franchise in boroughs. The effect of this widening of the constituency would be the introduction of such a deluge of the lower standard of feeling, as would completely obliterate even the pretence of political virtue. It is known that among the lower class of voters are chiefly to" be found those brazen-throated patriots who value a cove- , reign or a scene of gluttony more than they do Whig or Tory, and who care more for a glut of wassail and a pro- fusion of debauchery, than for the claims of Churchman or Dissenter : yet this class it is proposed to extend and rein- force by still farther reducing the qualification for the franchise. This accession, it must be borne in mind, would be derived exclusively from classes lower in social position than any at present represented. What its effect might be will be easily perceptible, if Liverpool were taken as an example. Its present constituency is about 17,400, but the number of houses rated at £6 and upwards is some- where about 62,000; so that your good tows alone would give an additional constituency, whose rate of qualification would range from £6 to £lO, considerably more than double the whole of the present voters. All moderate and prudent men concur in viewing such a proposal, made by one of the chief advisers of the Crown, as an inexplica- ble and extraordinary public scandal. The prevailing scandal, indeed the scandalum magnum of the day, is one to which I have frequently alluded, and from which it would be well for the national character if we were safely delivered. That is the shocking moral condition of the officers in our army, as that has been re- vealed by the protracted inquiries arising out of the court ag befo: from decent society, as effectively as the highwayman has been banished from Hounslow or Blackheath. From that inquiry we have learned that the reckless dissipation and extravagance of speech and behaviour which have been discarded from every other class of society, still nestle under the regimental mess-table, and find shelter and defence among the higher classes of the British Army. The public interest excited in behalf of Lieutenant PERRY has been very great, so great indeed as in some degree hitherto to prevent its own utterance, but it is at length making itself known by deel and declaration. Subscriptions have been set on foot to replenish his ex- hausted exchequer, and from the influential character of the parties moving in it, little room exists for doubting that he will receive substantial indications of general sympathy. While a sense of public duty induces the public to battle nobly in defence of law, decency, and justice, it is often curious to observe how quietly all three are per- mitted to be outraged in another. A brief period only has elapsed since, on the occasion of an action being heard against Cardinal WisamlN, his eminence, if one may decently denominate him so, was accommodated with a seat beside the Judge, thus exhibiting the u display of a suitor for alleged justice occupying a promi- nent position ou the judgment-seat—nay more, the un- seemly spectacle was presented of a contemner of the QUERN'S authority being promoted to a place of honour in one of her tribunals. Short, however, as has been the period since this abuse of legal courtesy and outrage upon good taste, the CARDINAL has not rested on his oars, but has pushed the advantage which his factitious position has afforded him, still farther to assert the power of his contraband influence. He has, under the auspices of the .nseemly Coancil of the Society of Arts, been lecturing at St. Martin's Hall, on the " Home Education of the Poor." Could no dignitary of our own Church be found with talent, intelligence, and inclination sufficient to induce him to undertake so legitimate and praiseworthy an object as directing the " Home Education of the Poor F" Or does the Council of the Society of Arts deem it a fit- ting mode to testify their affection for the poor, to employ for their instruction the acquirements of a man who openly defies their country's laws, treats their Sovereign with contumely, and parades his allegiance to a foreign Potentate ? Alas ! I know not. The fact is as recorded. The council of this Art Society, unfortunately, are not singular in their adulation of this Popish prince ; nor is the merit (?) of this questionable deference shared with them only by Her MAJESTY'S Lord Chief Baron ; another set of competitors for favour in the eyes of the Romish Propaganda has appeared in the direc- tors of the Crystal Palace Company. This latter body has gone farther than the others, and have allotted a place in their sculpture gallery to the bust of " Cardinal Wfssmsx," chief of the Romish Church in England. The council of the Society of Arts elevated him to the position of educational tutelary of the English poor ; one of the supreme, judges of England invited him to occupy a chair on the judgment-seat ; the directors of the Crystal Palace go farther still, and elevate his effigy to a place beside that assigned to Queen VICTORIA, and give it rank • among the sovereigns of England ! Who, after this, will venture to assert that " the POPE of Roam has no power nor influence in this land of England ?" Our transatlantic cousins are indeed a wondrous people, and competent to do "a thing or two ;" one accomplish- ment, however, appears to be sadly omitted in their national as in their individual training. They seem en- tirely deficient in the quality of self-control, and have exceedingly hazy notions of political honesty. The good old rule sufficeth them, The simple plan— That they should take who hare the power, And they should keep who can. Now Texas, and anon Mexico, excites the cupidity of the youthful giant, and his penchant must be gratified at whatever cost of national morality. His appetite for em- pire thus whetted, straightway the juvenile glutton casts his acquisitive glance over the Caribbean Sea, and the allurements of Cuba present themselves as objects of attraction to his insatiate maw. So long as this rapacity of soil—this itching for putting " his finger into other people's pie," is confined to the other side of the world, it concerns us comparatively but little. Not coat nt with this, however, he stretches his filching digits across the Atlantic, and thrusts his meddling hand into the piquant pie of -European politics. The American Consul in London, GEORGE N. SANDERS by name, has taken up the self-imposed task of championing the wild de- mocratic elements of European society. Th republican, forgetful of the peaceful nature ostensible mission, and probably not overburdened wit work which he is competent to execute, has addressed a political manifesto to the President of the Fed of Switzerland, in which he calls upon the Helvetic Re public, regardless alike of its obligations and its want of power, to " make her land the rallying Republican patriots," and " to aid in the enfrancl ul Council ground of the cement of Europe," adding further that he is backed in his pro- ceeding by an "American senator," How the promulga- tion of such doctrines may furthe the pea ,ful relations of America with European States, or how far the expres- sion of such sentiments, under such circumstances, may be congenial with or conducive to the interests of the model republic he in part represents, it is no part of my business to inquire. Looked on as an American diploma- tist residing in this country, it might not be amiss in Lord CLARENDON to give him a hint upon the rights and privi- leges enjoyed by, as well as on the etiquette expected to be observed by, diplomatic agents ; or, probably, as a mere resident, the task ought more naturally devolve upon Lord. PALMERSTON of bestowing on him some few lessons on that " knotty point" the rights of aliens. The war up to the present time has been carried on in a spirit of such " gentle admonition" as to leave many peo- ple in doubt as to whether we were really in earnest, or only playing a friendly game of naval and military " bo- peep" with the CZAR. Last week's intelligence from the Baltic has, in a great degree, removed this film from the public eye, and great has been the joy occasioned by the circumstance. The capture of Bomarsund has enlivened, as well as enlightened, the public mind, and all rejoice to know that her ancient prowess still nerves the national arm ; and universal delight has been experienced by the practical exploding of that delusion of poltroonery, which represented granite batteries as impregnable. Their effi- ciency has " been tried and found wanting," and we are not likely- soon again to hear of the surpassing dangers attendant on the attack of stone walls. The warriors of the olden day laughed at such difficulties, and some of them were disposed to look with eye askance upon their sons when such obstacles were talked of as dangerous impediments. NOVEL DUELLING.-A friendly duel took place on Monday afternoon, at Mequelymne Hill, between Mr. Laforge, County Clerk of Calaveras, and a Mr. Dudley. They chose the unique manner of squirting water at each other, to cool 0165 wounded honour. One combatant supplied himself with the hose of the Union 'Water Com- pany, the other with that of the Massachusetts Company. Marking the distance, which was about twenty feet, they commenced playing upon each other. The combatants withstood the cool application for about ten miusates, when Mr. Dudley, thinking dis,7etion the better part ,of valour, caved in.—San Joaquin kvalican.

It is, indeed, a striking fact, significant of the vast resources of England, that at a time when we are carrying on a war requiring vast armaments in two distant seas, the public securities bear a higher value than they did for some time before war was declared. Money also is easier for commercial purposes, and though the Bank directors have made no change in the rate- of discount, it has been reduced in practice at least half per cent. during the week. There have been reports of some failures in the Corn trade, owing, no doubt, to improvident spe- culations ; but the amounts are not large, and will hardly affect more than the immediate creditors.

At the inauguration, on Wednesday, an address from the classes was presented to Lord Stanley, expressing their gratitude for his munificent donation. His lordship, in an eloquent reply, enlarged upon the advantages of such institutions, and discussed various topics in con- nection with the educational wants of the country. VALUABLE DISCOVERY.—A discovery, which is likely to be of great advantage to agriculture, has just been reported to the Agricultural Society of Clermont (Oise). A gardener, whose frames and hot-house required paint- ing, decided on making them black, as likely to attract the heat better, and from a principle of economy he made use of gas-tar instead of black paint. The work was per- formed during the winter, and on the approach of spring the gardener was surprised to find that all the spiders and insects which usually infested his hot-house had dis- appeared, and also that a vine, which for the last two years had so fallen off that he had intended to replace it by another, had acquired fresh force and vigour, and gave every sign of producing a large crop of grapes. He after- wards used the same substance to the posts and trellis- work which supported the trees in the open air, and met with the same result, all the caterpillars and other insects completely disappearing. It is said that similar experi- ments have been made in some of the vineyards of the Gironde with similar results.—Galignani. TERRIFIC COLLIERY EXPLOSION.—EarIy on Tuesday, a most terrific explosion took place at Lund-hill Colliery, Heming. field, about five miles south of Barnsley, and half a mile from the South Yorkshire Railway. On Monday, in consequence of some alterations having been made in connection with the boilers of the engine, the sinkers did not work; but on Tuesday morning they descended as usual, and at 610 a terrific explosion of fire-damp took place which alarmed the whole neighbourhood for a mile round. The first thing that was noticed after the shock of the explosion was the body of a bricklayer named Wil- liam Davey, flying in the air, at a height of 90 feet, and subsequently falling upon a wall elevated 18 feet from the surface of the ground, for the purpose of increasing the height of the pit mouth ; from this he was taken quite dead. James Batty, who was on the boards placed across the mouth of the pit for the purpose of landing the material sent out, was blown from his position, and fell to the bot- tom of the shaft. The plank upon which he had been standing was found at a distance of 300 feet from the place where it had been originally firmly nailed. The head-gear was blown down, which caused some time to be lost before any one-could be lowered down the shaft. So soon, however, as means could be effected for that purpose, William Corbridge, Thomas Armitage, and Jepson de- scended, and found the bodies of William Mozley, James Batty, and Matthew Pollard in a fearfully mangled state, and quite dead. Noah Heely and Thomas Jackson were very much injured, the former, so much so that he is not expected to recover. Matthew Pollard is about 50 years of age, and has left a wife and eight children, who are resid- ing at Rochdale, Lancashire, which town he left a fort- night since, and commenced work at this place. William Davey, bricklayer, resided at Bawtry, and has left a wife and three children. 'William Mozley and James Batty are single, and natives of the place, StAiRIAGE OF A. TURiISH PRINCESS.—The ceremony of the espousals of Ali Galib Pasha and the Princess Fatima commenced on the morning of the 7th instant. At nine o'clock the presents given by the sultan to his daughter left Chiragan Serail, preceded by a numerous body of pashas, generals, and officers, in their gala uni- forms, with a battalion of infantry, and a fine band of music, playing martial airs. Then came upwards of 100 pages, each bearing on his head a salver, on which were placed baskets of flowers and sweetmeats, tastefully enve- loped in gauze of various gay colours ; cooking utensils of silver, with gilt handles and knobs, followed ; and these were succeeded by the nichan takim, objects invariably presented to a bride, consisting of a pair of pattens, and a hand-mirror, for the use of the bath ; the former were of gold enamelled, the broad straps richly studded with bril- liants, and the back and handle of the mirror were equally ornamented with jewels. An anteri (petticoat), sparkling with diamonds, was also exhibited; and, finally, two char- it-bans filled with trunks, containing„ among other precious objects, an abundance of French millinery to decorate the Oriental person of the princess. To these were added a purse on behalf of the bridegroom, containing a million of piasters, in the shape of pin-money. This train of pashas and presents embarked, after ten minutes' ride, in 28 boats, pulled each by ten men, and in upwards of 150 kaiks, and proceeded up the Bosphorus to AR Galib Pasha's palace. On the Bth and 9th several interesting ceremonies took place in the sultan's harem, viz., the bride was conducted to the bath, her finger and toe nails dyed red with henna, and her hair decorated with jewellery. These were three distinct ceremonies. On the morning of the 10th the bridegroom repaired to the palace, where the grand vizier, the ministers, and all the grandees received him in state, and the " akdoonikah," or ceremony of espousals, was duly performed; afterwards the whole party moved on in grand style, the grand vizier (surrounded by his staff) and the bridegroom bringing up the rear, towards Baltaliman. An immense concourse was collected on the line of the proces- sion,consisting chiefly of the fair sex,who seemed to interest themselves particularly on the occasion. The evening of the 10th was Axed for the " zifaf-guedgessi," or night of introduction, when the fortunate pasha would behold his modest bride for the first time. The Oriental custom of their supping together on a boiled fowl would, it was said, be duly observed, and next morning the ceremonies would be wound up by the young pasha's visit to kiss the dust of the feet of his imperial father-in-law, and the hem of the garment of each of the princess's other near relatives. Owing to the difficulties of the day, the usual five days' and five nights' rejoicings were put aside, and a dinner was t 1 oulz treat gwou to tho Titrlibh ad*,

The CH.lium.s.x then called upon eluded The Rev. HOBART SErmoui, author of " Mornings with the Jesuits," who was received with vehement demon- strations of applause.

(Applause.) The pLuceeded to give his own personal experience ireland for the past quarter of a century—showing Jere Roman Catholics evinced symptoms of abandoning Le mass-house they were threatened with secret destruc- .on, that every kind of abuse was practised upon their amilies, and every outrage, even to violence and murder, I themselves ; and that, in many districts, the unfor- tunate people who had been led from darkness to light, were obliged to emigrate in the hope of finding in the free air, free soil, and free constitution of the United States V. speak that immunity from persecution which they could not en- joy in their native land. He had been requested, he said in continuation, to move a resolution, which was to this effect : —" That universal as experience has proved the Romish system to be hostile to men's temporal and spiritual welfare, the only hope of Ireland's national regeneration lay in her deliverance from the baneful influence by which she has been so long blighted." (Cheers.) In carrying out the object of the resolution, he would commence by stating, that some time since at the British Museum he was look- ing over the records of that house of which their chair- man (Mr. Horsfail) was so worthy a member—(vehement cheering), and among the records laid upon the table of the House of Commons, by order of Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, he found certain documents relating to the state of crime in Eng- land, and the state of crime in Ireland. That which related to England gave a return of every case of a crimi- nal committed in England and Wales, and under the charge of murder the total number of persons accused, during a period of ten years, was 718, of whom 179 were convicted, which would give 72 committals for murder _ _. per annum ; and, comparing this with the population_ of England and Wales, according to the last census, they conclusively arrived at the result that in each million of the population of England and Wales there were four persona charged with murder. In other words, the pro- portion of accusations for murder was as four to a million. He entreated the meeting to retain that item steadily in their mind, as being the standard by which all he had stated that evening should be judged. Among the other docu- ments laid on the table of the House, he found a return of the number of cases of murder in Ireland reported to the police for a period of nearly three years, the total number being 644, or exactly 33 in a million. (Sensation.) But it was fair to say this was some years ago—from 1836 to 1839—and that since then there had been a great change, a change riskg contemporaneously with that described by his friend Mi. Ellis as taking- place in Connemaiiii, Dublin, and other parts of Ireland. (Cheers.) The same report contained a report for seven years—the seven best years ever known in the history of Ireland. In those seven years the number of reported murders was 914, which gave an average of 130 per annum, and, when compared with the population, it showed that there were 19 murders to each million of the population. Here, then, they arrived at the facts which enabled them to draw a comparison between the two countries of England and Ireland. Governed by the same laws, living under the same constitution, having the same civil and religious liberties, ruled by the same magistracy, and reigned over by the same sovereign ;—(hear, hear)—yet in Eng- land and Wales there were only four murders to a million inhabitants; while in Ireland, for the past seven years, the murders were, on the average, nineteen to the million. Whence arose the difference ? On looking through the papers he found two other documents which would enable them to form a judgment as to the relative proportion of 'Time in different parts of Ireland itself: in the north ,f Ireland, w, 're P ltestants el' " and .ue _rot -.aiefly prevaiiec in the south-west, where Romanism principally obtained.— The return for the year 1839. showed clearly that sin a mixed population, where there was a large body of Pro. testants, the number of persons charged with murder was 16 to the million ; while in the strictly Roman Catholic district the number was 80 to a million. (Sensation.) Wherefore was this difference ? To what cause must they attribute it ? In another return for 1813, he found that the number of persons charged with murder in the Protestant district was 7 to one million, while in the Roman Catholic district the number charged amounted to 50 to the million ! (Great sensation.) Again he asked—why should there be this difference—not merely between England and Ireland, but between two parts of the same realm of Ireland ? How else could they account for it but by the fact that Ulster was mainly Protestant, while the rest of Ireland was mainly Roman Catholic ? (Cheers.) But able statesmen in the house were accustomed say-that Ireland was an anomaly. Why, this was the greatest mistake they coulb make. Ireland was not an anomaly for he was prepared to show that this state of crime was the normal condition of every Roman Catholic country in Europe. This was a strong statement, but he could prove it by the most irrefragable evidence. (Hear, hear.) During his travels in years past, on the continent of Europe, he had care- fully made it his business to collect, at every court, the retuns made by the respective sovereigns as to the state of crime in their dominions. Mr. Seymour then entered into a lengthy analysis of these official docn- • provife iwerage .numbpr of oitanardtsers, winereeacash cofounllot;?rs, :—Belgium, , nlaB million of ipha- in a million of the population ; France, . murdersA Bavaria, 68; 20; the. two Lombardy, 45 Tus- cany, 84; Romagna, including the provinces of MaCerat and Ferrari, the murders were 133 in each million of the population (great sensation); in Sicily, 90 to the million ; and Naples, 174 to the million. (Sensation.) So in Italy, instead of witnessing the salutary influence of religion in purifying the minds, and soothing the pas, were there no purgatorial societies in Liverpool ? (Cries of "Yes, yes.") Was not this then a proof of the wide- spread belief in the money means of extricating souls from purgatory ? By disseminating t religion in Ireland, instead of this ( will aid in uniting her to England feeling. Oh ! that God would hasten the present royal when Ireland may be united to En,gla des of true isive system, you a love and Chr Inds of ness ancl religious pew( The rev. gentleman resumed his protracted cheering. The Rev. J. A. COMMIS seconded the resolution, and in doing so, entered at great length into a statistical re view of the state of crime in Ireland at different times and contrasted them with the present.

The evidence was similar to that given at the Poliie-court, and on the former trial of the prisoner. The deceased, it appears, was a stout man when he joined the ship, but, from deficiency of food and ill-treatment, he became much emaciated. After the examination of the is itnesses pro- duced on the previous charge, Dr. Cooper, twenty-four years surgeon at the Royal Infirmary, gave it as his opinion that the treatment of Valparaiso was exceedingly likely to cause death ; but, being pressed, he said that the cause of deceased's death was extremely doubtful. His LORDSIIIP informed the jury that it was impossible to find the prisoner guilty upon such evidence. The pri- soner was therefore acquitted ; and on evidence being offered in the case of Henry Foster, the prisoner was ac- quitted on that charge also, and, at his lordship's direc- tion, was at once liberated from custody. SHOOTING A SEAMAN IN THE Doc s.—Joseph Breck, captain of the American ship Harkaway, was indicted for shooting Lorenzo Corsen, one of his crew, about half-past ten o'clock on the morning of Monday, the 10th of July. The Harkaway was hauling from the Canning Dock into the Canning Basin, when the steward came aboard in a state of intoxication, and attempted to force his way into the poop-cabin. He was pushed out twice by the second mate and the captain. The crew were engaged in heaving round the capstan, and the second time the steward was pushed out he fell against the men, and some of them rolled down with him. The mate came aft with a belay- ing pin, and struck at the steward, and a man named. Kelly, who had come on board with him. The crew in- terfered to prevent this, and a general affray ensued, in which the mate was knocked down and jumped upon. During this state of things the captain came out of the cabin with a revolver, and fired twice in the direction of the men who were struggling with the mate on the deck. The prisoner returned to the cabin and procured another revolver from a passenger. A police-officer on the quay called out to the prisoner not to fire again, but he did so, and wounded Lorenzo Corsen on the back of the neck. Two police-officers went on board, and order was restored. The second pistol was taken from the captain, and it was found to be loaded in one chamber with powder and ball. After the evidence of several witnesses, his LORDSHIP told the jury that the prisoner was perfectly justified in acting as he had done, as he was only protecting his mate, whose life was in danger. The prisoner was accordingly acquitted, the judge remarking that it was great oppres- sion to prosecute him at all. Cirri]) MURDIIR.—Mary Kay, charwoman, was indicted for the murder of her infant child, at Bury, on Saturday, the 3rd of June. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. BURGLARY AT MANCHESTER.—Catherine Jones, semp- stress, was indicted for having, at Manhester, on the night of the 6th of July last, feloniously broken into the dwelling-house of James Brown, Ducie-street, Manchester, and stolen a quantity of wearing apparel. The jury re- turned a verdict of guilty, and two previous convictions of the prisoner having been proved, she was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment with hard labour. MAICSLA.UGHTER AT SALFORD.—Hugh Monroe, me- chanic, was indicted for the manslaughter of Mary Adams, at Salford, on Monday, the sth June last. The deceased was an inmate of the workhouse, and on the day in ques- tion she was going along Muslin-street, Salford, when the prisoner, who was coming in an opposite direction, ran against her, and knocked her down. He then passed on, but afterwards returned and kicked her. When examined by the surgeon of the workhouse the following morning, it was found that her thigh was fractured, in consequence of which she died a few days afterwards. His LORDSHIP instructed the jury there was no evidence of manslaughter against the prisoner, and he was acquitted. BURGLARY Al' RIDCLIPPE.—John Bradley, tailor, and Susan Forrest, charwoman, were indicted for having, at Radcliffe, on the night of the 21st of July last, burglari- ously entered the dwelling-house of Richard Taylor, engineer, and stolen a bag containing flour. The jury acquitted Bradley, but found a verdict of guilty against Forrest, and she was sentenced to twelve calendar months' imprisonment in the house of correction with hard labour. The court rose at twenty minutes to eight o'clock. WEDNESDAY. MURDER OF A CRIPPLE IN MANCHESTER Michael Cosgrove (76), a labourer, was indicted for the murder of Eliza Hamilton, an old cripple, 66 years of age, at Manchester, on Sunday, the 21st of May. The prisoner and his wife lived with the deceased and other lodgers at a house in Mount-street, Manchester. Previous to May he had been in the infirmary for 14 weeks, suffering from fever and bronchitis. On the morning in question the prisoner and his wife were quarrelling in their room, and the woman cried out " Murder." They were separated, but the old man got possession of a knife and fork, which were taken from him. He afterwards went into the room where the deceased slept. At the time she was sitting on the bed. He accused her of telling his wife something, and beat her violently on the head with a bed rail. The noise attracted attention, and the old man was secured. Eliza Hamilton died soon after in the infir- mary. Mr. Monk prosecuted; the prisoner was unde- fended. The old man had a very imbecile and attenuated appearance, and was so deaf that one of the turnkeys was desired to explain the evidence, which, however, was both clear and direct. He then made an incoherent statement to the jury, from which all that could be gathered was, that he wax in au uncozascical state of MIMI when ad- mitted into gaol. The turnkey, however, who had had *.ge of I] during his incarceration, denied this. in summing up, his Lordship told the Jury there was '--"Pst evidence that the prisoner had struck the and had caused her death ; and charge of hit deceased with violence luestion was whether he was in a sound state of mind at the time.—The jury at once found the prisoner guilty of murder ; and his lordship proceeded to pass sentence of death upon the prisoner, who was re- moved, apparently unaffected at the fate which had just been assigned to him. that the only MANSLAUGHTER AT KIRBY, BY A. FA.R3IER.—Henry Mercer (50) was indicted for the murder of Henry Shack- lady, his brother-in-law, in Kirby, on the afternoon of Thursday, the 10th inst. The case was one of a very painful nature, as it had arisen from the intemperate habits of the deceased. From the evidence, it appeared that the prisoner had been subjected to a good deal of irritating conduct on the part of the deceased, with whom he had had a drunken fight on the preceding Tuesday, and had been made the butt of some amount of what is understood to be practical wit. Under the influence of the excitement so produced, he had struck the deceased on the head with a pitchfork, with which he had armed him- self. The severity of the blow caused concussion of the brain, and ended in the death of Shacklady. —The jury, under direction of his lordship, found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter, and he was sentenced to be imprisoned for six months with hard labour. MANSLAUGHTER AT WlGAN.—Daniel Brown, engine- driver, was charged with causing the death of Joseph Bate, a collier, at Ince, near Wigan, on the 27th July. It was prisoner's duty to draw up the tubs from the four-feet pit. About eleven o'clock on the morning in question, the deceased and others were proposing to ascend from the bottom of the pit. The prisoner drew up the tub before the signal was given, which resulted in the death of the deceased. The printed rules of the pit stipulated that no human beings should pass up in the buckets between six o'clock in the morning and twelve at noon. The prisoner was acquitted. _ _ _ FRAirD BY A GAIIDNER AT RBDDISII.—Richard Faulk- ner, gardner, was charged with having, at Reddish, on the 28th of July, 1852. uttered a forged document, by which he fraudulently obtained six shillings and nine pence. The prisoner was acquitted. FICHIT IN A COLLIEEY.—Robert Newton, 23, a collier, was indicted for wounding John Brockston, at the llralthem-house Colliery, Pemberton. About half-past four o'clock on the morning of the 29th of July the prose- cutor, his brother, an uncle, and the prisoner, were quar- relling in the pit, and (as alleged by the prosecutor) the prisoner struck the prosecutor with a pick which he had in his hand, and inflicted a flesh wound in the hip. The jury acquitted the prisouer. _ _ STEALING A RlNG.—Alice Latham, factory-worker, was indicted for stealing a diamond ring. On the 28th of September last, the prisoner went into the shop of Mr. John Dean, jeweller, Bradshaw-leigh, and looked at some rings. On the day following, the ring in question was missed, and it was subsequently found in the possession of the prisoner. Verdict, guilty prisonment with hard labour Sentence, six months' im- - GAROTTE RODBERT.—Mary Ann M`Donald, factory- worker, was indicted for a garotte robbery on the person of Henry Duckworth, an old farmer, of Oswaldwistle, near Accrington. On the night of the 3rd inst. the prosecutor was returning from Accrington fair, when a female came up to him and solicited him to go with her. He refused, but she still persisted, and while she was soliciting him a man came up behind, and placed his hand upon prosecu tor's mouth and threw him down. Another man also as- sisted, and prosecutor was rendered almost insensible. A purse, containing six sovereigns, was taken from his waist- coat pocket, and some silver from his trousers. Verdict, guilty. Sentenced to fifteen years' transportation. ADMINISTERING DRUGS.—George C. Tootal, 20, was ac- quitted on a charge of administering certain drugs to Sarah Beard. Prisoner and the young female in question were both in the service of Mr. Hayward, chemist and druggist, Deansgate, Manchester,. SENTENCES.—John Delap, guilty of cutting and wound- ing Ann Barlow, (with whom he had cohabited,) at Liver- pool, on the 30th of May, to be transported for 15 years.— Robert Morton, 14, pleaded guilty to burglary at Pilking- ton. Six months with hard labour.—Joseph Peverelle, for perjury at Liverpool, to be kept at penal servitude for five years.—Frank Wilkinson pleaded guilty to perjury at Old- ham. Six months' imprisonment with hard labour.—At twenty minutes past eleven the jury returned, and pro- nounced a verdict of " not guilty" in the case of Tootal. The prisoner was acquitted. The court then rose.

THE NEW LAW.—On Friday there were no less than fifty-six publicans' and beerhou.se' cases heard before the magistrates. One-half of those summoned were beer- house-keepers, who alleged in their defence that they thought the new beer act allowed them to keep open to twelve o'clock on Saturday. About a dozen of the infor- mations for Sunday trading were laid under the new act. TEE LATE CHARGE OF FORGERY AGAINST A LIVER- POOL 31mm:cum—In the course of the proceedings in the Crown Court, on Wednesday, before Baron Platt, it was announced that John Thomas Haselden, a tea-broker, who was committed for trial on a charge of having uttered a forged order for the delivery of two hundred chests of tea, with intent to defraud Mr. William Cross, had ab- sconded, and gone to America. His recognizances were consequently estreated. He was bailed in two sureties of £5OO each. TrrE kruExIAN, new screw steamer, built by Messrs.

THE LUSITANIA, South American and General Steam Navigation Company's steamer, Captain Brown, took her departure on Thursday hence for the Brazils and the River Plate, with thirty passengers, a full cargo, and a large mail. This will be her last voyage, as, since the company have obtained the government contract for the conveyance of mails, she has been found to be too small for the trade. She has been sold to the Imperial Steam Navigation Company of France, to whom she will be transferred on her return. ANNUAL LICENSING SEssion—The annual session for renewing and granting licenses commenced on Thursday, at the Police-office, in High-street, before Alderman S. Holme and Mr. J. H. Turner. Before commencing the business, Mr. Holme remarked that, as there had been great irregularity at the last session, the magistrates had determined that parties applying for licenses must attend personally. The renewals were then proceeded with, and occupied the greater portion of the day. To-morrow (Wednesday) the applications for new licenses will be heard, and on the following day the applications from several of those parties who are objected against, on account of fines, &c., will be heard. About 800 licenses were renewed on Thursday, and nearly 700 on Friday. FAILURE OP A LIVERPOOL SHIP-OWNER.—In the Bankruptcy Court, London, on Wednesday, John Solo- mon, late of Dake-street, Liverpool, ship-owner and mer- chant, applied to pass his last examination. The balance sheet filed by the bankrupt commences on the first of January, 1850, at the period when he was carrying on business at Liverpool, and ends in March, 1854. The balance sheet contains, according to the list of creditors, the names of between 30 and 40 inhabitants of Liverpool, and also of captains and others employed in various vessels running from Liverpool to Australia, and other places, for wages due to them. No opposition was offered to the bankrupt's accounts, and he passed his examination. Renewed protection having been granted to the bankrupt until the certificate meeting, the proceed- ings concluded. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT WATERLOO.—A boy, two years and a half old, was drowned on Thursday afternoon, on the shore, at Waterloo, under circumstances so strange and distressing, that a gloom has prevailed ever since over the whole place. The three children of Mr. William Peek, jun., of the firm of Peek Brothers, and Co., London, were, with Mrs. Peek, stopping with their grandfather, C. Meigh, Esq.; of Grove-house, Shelton, Staffordshire, in Waterloo, where he was spending a few weeks ; and, as usual, they were sent out, on Thursday morning, with two nurses to walk. One of the children was an infant in arms ; another was a boy, aged two years and a half, and the eldest a girl, four years old. The nurses proceeded to the shore, and the tide being out, they extended their walk to the water's edge, getting on one of the high sand- banks which occasionally occur. Here they remained, careless of the flow of the tide, until they perceived that the bank on which they stood was surrounded by water. At the time, although it covered a considerable space, it was less than a foot deep, and the nurse and the baby dashed through it ; the other girl was so frightened that she let go the, two children, and ran as she thought for help. The tide, in the mean time, rapidly increased ; the poor little things cried loudly, and a labouring man passing, attracted by the noise, dashed in at once. He found the poor children struggling in the water, and promptly seized both in his arms and carried them ashore. The boy was so far exhausted that, although every possi- ble means were used to restore him, he never breathed again. The little girl, being less exhausted, soon recovered.

TO ST. GEORGE'S HALL.—At the Police-court, on Thursday, Mr. M`Gowan, clerk to the health committee, preferred a complaint against Mr. Mitchell, the owner of a piece of land adjoining the Queen's Hotel, Lime-street, under a clause hi the improvement act, which rendered him liable to a penalty of £2. Mr. M`Gowan handed to the bench a plan of the property, and stated that Mr. Curchod, the proprietor of the Queen's Hotel, had embarked some six or seven thousand pounds, and it was to him a very serious matter, for a family re- cently residing with him had left and gone to a rival house in consequence of the nuisance which existed. A few weeks ago their attention had been called to some ground on the opposite side of the hotel belonging to Mr. Alder- man Bennett, and that gentleman had since come forward in the most liberal manner and built a wall round it, to comply with the wishes of the authorities. Mr. Mitchell, the proprietor of this ground, the subject of the present complaint, had been repeatedly applied to, but up to this time nothing had been done. In the year 1846 the cor- poration sold this piece of land to Mr. Mitchell, upon the agreement that he should build upon it within three years ; this he had also failed to comply with. He then called Mr. Fresh and Mr. Curchod to substantiate the statement he had advanced. For the defendant, it was stated that part of the land had been let to a Mr. Hope, who bad been to the court that morning., and had pro- mised to build a wall eight feet high to the satisfaction of the authorities. The bench, upon this, adjourned the case for a week. AUSTRALIAN SHIPPIRG.—During the week, five vessels of a tonnage of 3,923 tons have sailed for Australia, in- cluding a small steamer of 104 tons which sailed for Mel- bourne. There are now 36 vessels loading here for the Australian ports, registering 26,119 tons. The fine ship Herald of the Morning, belonging to Messrs. Millers and Thompson's Golden Line, sailed on Wednesday for Mel- bourne, with 250 passengers and a full cargo, consisting of nearly 1,600 tons of general merchandise. The next vessel to be despatched by this line is the celebrated ship Marion Moore, which made her last passage home in 87 days. Her fittings and general arrangements are well worth notice. The fine Australian clipper-ship Arabian, belonging to the White Star Line, sailed on Saturday week for Melbourne, with a full complement of passengers and a large and general cargo. She was towed out a little beyond Bardsey, and when left by the steamer was making good way under an ample spread of canvas. The Arabian will be followed by the first-rate new ship Sultana, one of the finest conveyances which has ever been provided in Liverpool for passengers to Australia. The ship is filling rapidly, nearly one-half of her being already engaged. She is to sail early in September. The following notices of Australian emigrants from Liverpool, spoken at sea, were posted in the Exchange newsroom on Wednesday :—July 11, Queen of the East, lat. 9 52 N., long. 27 23 W. ; all well. June 6, Miles Barton, lat. 35 45 S., long. 11 58 W. TRIAL TULE Or TIIE NUBIA.—On Wednesday, a number of gentlemen embarked in the magnificent new steamer Nubia, built by Mr. Laird, for the Peninsular and Oriental Company, in order to test her speed, and to see that her engines were in order and all smooth for working, and therefore there was no marking of particular time, but it was admitted on all hands that her performance was beyond even what was expected, and there can be no doubt that she will prove a fine and very fast sea-boat. Her trip was north about and home by the Lightship, a dis- tance of over 50 miles, and everything passed off with great satisfaction to all parties concerned. The Nubia is commanded by Captain Harris, an able and experienced seaman. She left on Thursday for Southampton, from whence she will be despatched on her first voyage for Alexandria, and after that it is said she will be put on the Indian station of the company. When the vessel arrived back in the river there was an elegant dinner served up in the saloon, to which the party who had gone on the trip, consisting of about 50 gentlemen, sat down. Capt. Harris was in the chair ; and, after spending an agreeable even- ing, the party returned to town about six o'clock by a tug steamer, having first given three hearty cheers for the Nubia, and wished her captain and herself every success. On her voyage to Southampton on Thursday she was left Holyhead Bay at half-past three the same afternoon, e the noon,having accomplished the distance against a heavy head gale in five hours and a half—a most excellent by r pilot zn run under any circumstances. Those on board were de. 4144 with her speed and easy motion.

Once more, a single word of "a verbal alteration" of Mr. Wray, which, however it may tell on his ingenuousness, does some credit to his ingenuity. He talks of his brethren now but as "Enemies to these principles," and puts the word "enemies" in inverted commas, as though it had been the phrase at the first employed by him. Every one, however, will feel how much this adept in the mitigation of language has softened down his original phraseology, in which, when he called for a bold assault on "the strongholds of Puritanism.," he simply and broadly declared, in all the power and solidity of the singular concrete, that this chief town dthe provinces was "in the hands of THE ENEMY." But, in truth, I am weary, and so also must your readers be, of these investigations of morbid anatomy; and I shall merely draw public attention, in closing, to the following facts which have been elicited in the present controversy. They are worthy of our mest serious consideration. 1. It appears that there is a party within our Church to whom such an appeal as Mr. WraY's Tan be addressed with good hope of success—an appeal which ...consists of an elabo- rate vilification of such a body as the Clergy of Liverpool, (" only one Church" being excepted,) and which asks help only "on the ground" 'that it is a matter of urgent necessity to deprive them of their intluence, and drive them from their position with their people. 2.—We have lived to see the day When a Clergyman of the Church is no longer ashamed, at the:first secretly and more bitterly, afterwards publicly and -still most offensively, to lead this crusade against his brethren. For the first time; we presume, in the-history of the Church of England, one of her ministers asks for -aid in erecting to her a new•sanc- tuary ; not because vice, and ignorance, and sin are rife around not because of .the prevalence of angry dbisent, or the. progress of soul-destroying Popery ; but that " 'ma ENEMY" 'of our-so-called Puritanism may be dispossessed, that the new church may be a-kind of ecclesiastical battery froni which to open a fatal fire on ,the surrounding churches. Truly, that Tractarian told nothing-but the truth who avowed it as the single object of his party'to "unprotestantise the Church of England." Lastly, the Clergyman who does this, and the party to whom he appeals in doing it, are putting forward all the white pleas the most peaceful and sanctified. They are pleading for Daily Prayer.and Weekly Communion ! Against such ob- jects God forbid that•l should ever even seem to oppose my- self. But, ohi let those who put them forward see to themselves how they do so. It is an evil day for our Church when her holy Love-feasts, her gracious worship, her burn- ing intercessions, and her loving Litanies are solemnly prostituted to the worst purposes of party strife ; when they are openly regat dca but as so many useful expedients of strategic policy.; when the practice of these things is only despised and'hated, unless with the accompaniment of every party badge, and the unfaltering pronunciation of every party Shibboleth ; and when men deceive their own hearts by invoking the solemnities of peace, in the very act of levying war, and that upon their brethren.—Your faithful servant, WM.

Attention has lately been called to the approach- ing reductions in the annual charge for the National Debt, which will form no inconsiderable items in the future expenditure, and, thereby, in some de- gree, prove an assistance in future financial arrange- ments. Within a few weeks the New Three-and- a-Quarter per Cent. Stock will be reduced to Three per cent., making a saving of £600,000 a year, and in 1860 there will be a further saving of nearly two millions annually, owing to the termination of the Long Annuities ; while in 1867 the " dead weight" annuity of £585,700, held by the Bank of England, will cease. The total capital represented by these sums is estimated at £130,000,000, from which, in a few years' time, the National Debt will be relieved, so that the prospect for the future is encouraging, should nothing in the meanwhile occur to cause a further addition to the public bur- dens ; but we have the expenses of the war to provide for, and the amount it is as yet impossible to estimate. In the Cotton manufacturing districts trade is dull, influenced in some degree by the low price of Cotton, arising from the large supply; but the value of manufactured goods has been steadily maintained, particularly of those suited for the home market. In the Woollen districts trade is in a much sounder position than it has been for some time past, and though prices are still low, hopes are entertained of a speedy improvement in this respect. In the Lace and Hosiery trades there is not much doing, but improvement is confidently looked for as soon as the harvest has been got in. The Corn trade presents evident signs of decline, owing to the favourable weather for getting in the harvest, and the general reports of abundance in almost every quarter. There have been many falls of rain, but they have been generally accompanied with drying winds, and it is the opinion of agri- culturists that they have proved no detriment whatever to the condition of the crops. Holders, however, are reluctant to sacrifice, and advantage has been taken of every wet day to sustain prices, but the attempt has not been successful, for with very few exceptions the tendency has been perma- nently downwards, notwithstanding the short sup- plies. It is undeniable that a great part of the Wheat crop in England has been well secured, and every day is rescuing the remainder from hazard;; while in most other corn-growing countries the harvest has proved abundant in quantity, and superior in quality. Under these circumstances, it is impossible that 'the present rate of prices can be long maintained, and some are of opinion 'that Wheat will be lower than it has been for many years past. It will be seen .by the subjoined copy of a Trea- sury Minute, dated 25th August, that the 'Lords of the Treasury have conceded the point requested with reference to the drawbacks for medium quali- ties of refined Sugars. As the document has only just been issued, we give it in extenso " My lords have under their consideration memorials from several sugar refiners, which represent the necessity of fixing some intermediate drawbacks upon Refined Sugar, other than those -contemplated and fixed by •tte Sugar act of last session, -in consequence of the abolition of refineryin bond ; and my lords refer to the provisions of the act of parliament, which contemplates the introduction of new drawbacks. Upon a full consideration-of the case, and after communication with the trade and the customs' authorities, my lords decide in the meantimelo allow the rates of 15s. percwt. of drawback on Refined Stored Sugar, and of Ils. per -cwt. on Bastard Sugars to remain, as provided by the act; but they decide to introduce two intermediate drawbacks, as applicable to -tie different qualities of unstoved, crushed, or pounded Sugars, as hereafter explained. "The following will, therefore, be the drawbacks to be paid oa Refined Sugars of the manufacture Of this country upon-their being exported, or upon their being removed to the Isle of Man, for consumption, subject, -however, to the payment of the' island duty : "L .Upon'Refined -Sugar in loaf, complete or whole, or lumps duly refined, having been perfectly .clarified and thoroughly dried in the • stove, and being of an uniform whiteness throughout, for every hundred weight, 15s. "2. Upon such Refined Sugar already described, if pounded, crushed, or broken in a warehouse approved by the Commissioners of Customs, such Sugar having been there first inspected •by the officers of customs in lumps or loaves, as if for immediate shipment, and-then packed for exportation in the presence of such officers, and at the expense of the exporter, for every hundred weight, 15s. " 3. Upon Refined Sugar, unstoved, pounded, crushed or broken, and not in any way inferior to .the export standard sample No. 1, hereby approved by the Lords of the Treasury, and which shall riot contain =ore than 5 per rent. moisture over and above what -the same would contain, if thoroughly dried in the stove, for every hundred weight, 14s. 3d. " 4. Upon -Baitard or Reined Sugar unstoved, broken in pieces, or being ground, powdered, or crushed, not in way inferior to the export standard sample No. 2, approved by the Lords of the Treasury, and which shall not:contain more than c per cent moisture, over and above what the same would contain, if thoroughly dried in the stove, for every hundred weight, 13s. 3d. 5. Upon Bastard or Refined Sugar 1;e-i-n-g,-Iferior in quality to•the said export standard sample N0.'2,10r every hundred itveight, lls. " Adverting, however, to " biz ti difficulty of administer- o drawbacks_ and-to the few ports'io which the refining .of Sugar is confined, my lords thinkit necessary to limit, at least for the present, the privilege of exporting Sugars•under drawback-to the following -ports, viz. :—London, Liverpool, .Bristol,tGlas- gow, and Greenock." The retima from the Bank of England for the week ending the 19th August, gives the following results, when compared with the previous week Public deposits ... £3,891,195; Increase £900,921 Other dePosi 10,380,618; Increase Rest On the other.side of the account— 3,450,375; Increase 226;719 11,959 Government securities £11,030.873; Increase e 350,380 Other securities ... 14,740,797; Increase 639,213 Notes unemployed ... 6,879,820; Increase 210,930 The amount ctfuotes in circulation is £20,122,135, being a decrease of £41,575 ; and the •stock of bullion in both departments is £13,701,292, show- ing an increase of 2,139,471, when compared with the preceding return.

Mid- land and Leeds have risen nearly isvo per cent. in the week, and all other stocks have been in demand at higher prices. London Stock alone is very heavy, and is scarcely better than 102. The dealers are offering to buy at high rates for next account. The transactions of this day mark as follow : Blackburn, 95 ; Caledonians, 311 21 ; East Lan- cashire, 17 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 69-1 70 1 ; London Stock, 102 1 1 ; Sheffield Stock, 231 ; Mid- land Stock, 69 1 ; Berwick Capital Stock, 19 ; Oswestry and Chester, 141 ; Shropshire Union, H. and C., 31(1. ; South Eastern, 194 11-16 4 ; St. Helen's H. and C., 5 per cent., pref., 99. COTTON.—The market during the week has been very dull, owing to the disinclination to pur- chase, and holders being inclined to press sales. Prices have consequently given way to the extent of id. for middling, and id. for fair quality. The sales of the week up to Friday amounted to 33,710 bales, of which 2,060 were taken on speculation, and 4,450 for export, leaving 27,200 for the trade. TO-DAY the advices per Canada were received, and notwithstanding the intelligenceof fine weather for the growing crop, holders were firm, and prices were well maintained. The sales amounted to 8,000 bales, of whiCh about 1,500 were on specula- tion and for export. The following is a =awl.

But surprise was succeeded by consternation on the part of the spectators when one of the women began to divest herself of her clothes. The man met the lady half way, and, to the amazement Of all who witnessed the spectacle, gave her his arm and slowly and ceremoniously marched. into the sea knee deep. Adult baptism was the key to this proceeding; for the man, after pronouncing some gibberish, immersed his compannion over head and ears, and pronouncing a benediction, they slowly returned to-their respective places.

"As a record of bold and enterprising genius, bis biography may rank beside the history of Columbus or Cook. As a narrative of skilful ingenuity, it more than realises the ro- mance of Robinson Crusoe. As a specimen of the best kind of decision of character, there is, perhaps, not a more useful study furnished in the annals of uninspired men. As an example of successful effort in the work of extending the Gospel, we must go back eighteen hundred years to find its parallel.

O, lie down in a P Lon of prescribed crustean bed, and be trimmed to the fas rule, we find such bad lags prevailing. Are we not thus taught that the laws of Romish countries are not fitted for restraining the evil passions of men ? It would be unfair to charge the Church of Rome with wilfully and directly preaching advocacy of crime. (Hear, hear.) She, like every other Church, whether Christian or heathen, professes to discourage crime ; but by wishing t make a disburthening of the guilts conscience an equiva- -1 an element readily lent for innocence, she introduces converted into the most drngerous agency In our Pro-- testant Church we inculcate the doctrine that as the tree falls so it must lie—we know and teach that there is no alteration beyond the grave. We thus associate something terrible with the idea of sending an immortal spirit into the presence of its judge. The murderer is haunted by the belief that he must meet the judgment in his own immortal spirit, and he is tortured by remorse at the idea of being confronted by the spirit of his victim. The believer in the doctrines of the Church of Rome sees all these matters in a different light. The murdered man, in his view, is not sent before his judge : but is sent to purgatory, where the spirit of the victim undergoes a change. By a series of masses which his friends can readily purchase, the Romanist is taught to believe that his victim is released. The full horror of the dreadful effect of murder is thus lessened. In Rome, at least one church exists in which it is believed by the populace, that all souls for whom masses are said in that church are relieved from purgatory ; and to this church great numbers of the people resort daily. The priest—he had seen it himself—keeps a regular book of entry in which the names of all the souls relieved, or to be relieved, are written. He had seen the monk get the money and give receipts _for it (cheers and laughter).. In Milan he aw a similarly privileged church, and being desirous of having one of those receipts, furbishing up his best Italian, he addressed the priest, saying, he wished to have the soul of a friend relieved from purgatory, and asked if he could get it done, and if so, at what price. He replied at once that it could be done, and said the cost would be two francs, Milanese currency (a laugh). He then said, to pre- vent any mistake with an English name, he wished that he (Mr. Seymour) would write it and hand him the book 3 ! (L —.Lighter.) POssessed of the book, he continued, I was re- solved to write in it the name of a soul which I knew was not in purgatory, and wrote at full length Hobart Seymour, paid him the money; and, not content to do the work by halves, I took a receipt for it, and here, sir, I place it before you. [The rev, speaker here laid the document on the table amidst roars and shouts of laughter. It was a dirty-looking bit of paper, partly written and partly j He continued, he might be told that, although n mummery might be practised in Italy, it would not )in more civilised countries.

Cotton firm, with upWard tendency; flour upward; wheat firm; corn advanced two cents ; prices of pork considerably higher; money market unchanged; exchange on London firm.. TRH' TVAR. A despatch, dated Vienna, Tuesday, says :—General Be- butoff has defeated 60,000 Turks, near Kars. Three thou- sand were killed ; 2,300 soldiers and 84 officers taken pri- soners. Fifteen pieces of cannon, and the Turkish camp fell into the hands of the victors. [lt may be observed that this despatch gives no date, nor even an indication of its route to the Austrian capital.] A despatch from Warsaw, coming consequently from a Russian source, confirms the news that the Turkish army had been completely beaten and dispersed by General Bebutoff, near Kars, in Asia. Letters from Rutschuk, of the Bth, have been received at Vienna. They state that 60,000 Russians were about to be concentrated on the right bank of the Pruth, under General Luders, in order to cover the Russian flotilla in the Danube, which would be sacrificed by the evacuation of Galatz. Letters have been received from Berlin, of the 20th, to the effect that, on the previous day, Prince Gortschakoff had received the answer of the Russian cabinet to the propositions of the other Powers. It is said that Russia does not absolutely reject them, and even recognises them as capable of being made the bases .of new negotiations, after certain modifications in reference to the commo protectorate of the Principalities, and the presen Ltion, it . , their integrity, of the privileges, of the G;eek Christian; Barran HEROIS3I.—A Varna letter of the 9th cor tains the following :--31r.
