CURE OF ULCERS AND CUTANEOUS D/SEASES.—The daughter of Mrs. Farlow, town carrier, residing in Maiden- lane, Covent-garden, London, was afflicted for six years with ulcers on the right arm, and during that period she bad the best medical advice that could be procured, but without de- riving :any benefit whatever; her health suffered, and her constitution became so impaired that no hopes were enter- tained of her recovery.

ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA By the British and North American Royal Mail steam- ship Canada, Capt. Stone, which arrived here on Sunday morning, we have intelligence from Boston to the 16th, and from New York, by telegraph to Halifax, to the 17th instant. She brought upwards of 100 passengers, and $221,588 and £6OO on freight. The Canada left Boston at 0.30 p.m., on the 16th, at 9.17 a.m., on the following day, passed the Royal Mail steamer America, and arrived at Halifax at 3.16 a.m., on the 18th, whence she sailed at 4.30 a.m. ; had favourable winds and fair weather the entire run, and reached the Mersey at 4.20 a.m. on Sunday. She passed the steamer Asia on the 20th, in lat. 47, long. 49, and the ships Mon- tezuma and Favourite on the 22nd and 24th respectively, both bound east. The steam-ship Clyde, 17 days out from Glasgow, put into Halifax on the 14th instant, for coal and water. A meeting of the shareholders in the Haarlem Railroad Company was held on the 15th, to hear the report of the committee appointed at the last meeting. The committee expressed great confidence in the soundness of the road, and stated that the actual loss through Mr. Schuyler's defalcations would not probably exceed $20,000. The resolutions of the committee recommended the absorption of the unissued stock by the company, to be put to the expense account ; and, also, that a new board of directors be appointed. The New York Journal of Commerce believes that the ship Grapeshot had sailed with her cargo of arms for Mexico, Santa Anna having purchased them. The directors of the Crystal Palace had authorised their president to sell the entire concern, including the con- tents, for one-half its original cost, namely, $350,000, the actual outlay having been $700,000. It was pro- posed by some Bostonians to purchase it, and have it erected in that city. The Herald states that the directors of the Erie Com- pany had received a loan of £40,000 from Brown Brothers, on their, joint and respective endorsements. A number of coal operators, of Pittsville, had advanced about $60,000 to Mr. Tucker, president of the Reading Railroad, to relieve him from his present difficulties. Advices from Venezuela report that an engagement had occurred at Coro, resulting in the defeat of the insurgents, who lost 200 men; including General Garaches and the son of the Consul-General of Holland, resident at Laquira, A gunpowder magazine, at Marysville, containing 800 kegs, had been set fire to by incendiaries and exploded. The shock was tremendous, and demolished thirteen houses. No lives were lost, but a lady afterwards died of fright. Captain Donald, of the slave ship Grey Eagle, had been committed to prison by Commissioner Ingraham, of Phi- ladelphia, on the charge of slave piracy. The testimony was very strong against him. We have intelligence from the city of Mexico to the 20th ult. The revolution in Michoscan was gaining ground, and the insurgents had captured the town of Litacuro. It is hardly possible to gain from the Mexican journals any- thing like an intelligent idea of the progress of things in that unfortunate country; but from the meagre accounts that are given 'of the successes of the revolutionists, it is evident that the disaffection is increasing rapidly. Every- thing at the capital was stagnant. Advices of the 3d are received at New Orleans. The insurrection in Michoscan continues, with alternate advantages. The capital Ta- maulipas has declared for Alvarez. A decree has appeared ordering the expulsion of foreigners for daring to criticise the acts of Santa Anna. -- COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, AUGUST 15, MoNEr.—Capital at present is abundant and increas- ing;' but a disinclination exists on the part of many to invest or loan. The banks hold four millions more coin now than they had twelve months ago. There has been a fair demand for foreign exchange. We quote :—London, 109 to 109 i; Paris, 5,111 to 5,131; Amsterdam, 41i to 411; Frankfort, 41i to 414-: Bremen, 78i to 78; ; Ham- burgh, 301 to 36i; Antwerp, 5,11.1 to 5,15. The failure of four of the Indiana Free Banks has been announced. The paper of these banks has not been current at this city for some weeks past, although attempts have been made to give it circulation. CorToii.—There has been a good demand from spinners, who are short of stock, and, owing to the limited amount on sale, an advance has been obtained on all descriptions, more particularly on clear grades of light stained Uplands, and qualities under middling. The sales of the week amount to 7,200 bales, of which 2,835 were for home use, 3,154 for export, and 1,211 in transit. To-day the sales are estimated at 900 bales, equally divided for home use and for export. The season at all the southern markets has drawn to a close, and business is almost suspended. Our advices, in consequence of the continuation of dry and hot weather, continue to be favourable for the growing crop. From New Orleans, under date of 4th inst., a cor- respondent writes, "We have never known so few com- plaints about the crop, at this date ; the prospect now is certainly very good for a large crop ; the weather is dry and awfully hot." Middling fair and fair qualities are too limited in supply to quote, and the "ordinary" and "good ordinary" grades of uplands, light stained, are preferred by spinners to some grades of gulf. cottons, as they are freer from leaf and sand. BREADSTUFFS.—The stock of flour in this market is unusually light. The supplies are limited, and, with a good home and Eastern demand, prices continue to have an upward tendency. The sales to-day were to a fair ex- tent. Wheat is rather inactive, millers being unwilling to purchase extensively at current rates, in face of the new crop just coming into the market, whilst the demand for shipment is unimportant. Corn is in demand. PROVISIONS.—The demand for pork to-day was mode- rate, at previous prices. Beef was without alteration. Butter was without alteration. Cheese was firm at Bc. to 10c. per lb. NAVAL STORES.—Rough turpentine scarce, and would bring $4,121 to $4,25. Spirits of turpentine sold at 49c. Thin tar, $3,75 ; the market is bare of shipping tar. FREuiliri:—We have no alteration to notice in rates ; the amount offering is quite moderate. We quote, to Liverpool : tobacco, 10s. to 12s. • cotton, 3-16 d.; flour, Is.; rosin, ls. 3d. ; heavy goods 12s. to 15s. ; grain, ship's bags, 4d.; beef, Is. 6d. To London: flour, ls. 6d. to ls. 9d. ; turpentine and rosin, 2s. ; measurement goods, 30s. ; heavy goods, 17s. to 20s. ; beef, 4s. ; oil cake, is. 6d. ; grain, 6d. To Havre : cotton, ie. • ashes, $7 to $9 ; quercitron bark, $9 ; measurement goods, $8 to $lO ; whale- bone, per lb., d. to id. ; flour, 60c. boN.—A steady market, with small sales of Scotch pig, at $4O to $4l per ton. Nsw ORLEANS, AUGUST 12.—The sales of the week amount to 6,500 bales. HAVANA, AUGUST B.—The inquiry for all descriptions of sugars during the past week has been very general, and, but for the small stock in first hands and the refusal of wealthy planters to sell at present prices, a very large amount of business would have been transacted. The growing crop is most luxuriant, the weather having been highly favourable for it. Molasses is becoming quite scarce here and at the outpoihts. Freights remain dull; but there are only a few small vessels in the port : they are held firm. For the British channel for orders, the quotations are not beyond £2 7s. 6d. to £3, according to size and condition of vessels. Lower terms are admitted for direct ports. Exchanges continue improving, with fair operations. London, 13 to 13i per cent. premium ; Paris i to i i Antwerp, i to 1; and Spain 6 to 7.

SATURDAY, INSURANCE CASE—WILSON AND ANOTHER V. MARTIN, AND WILSON AND ANOTHER V. RA.THBONE.—III these two cases Messrs. Joseph Wilson and Co., of New Orleans, the plaintiffs, sought to recover from the defendants, both of whom were underwriters for the ship Cambyses, insurance upon portions of the freight of that vessel. In November, 1852, the plaintiffs, in accordance with instructions re- ceived from Messrs. Crane and Co., St. John, New Bruns- wick, the owners of the ship Cambyses, procured a freight for that vessel, and accepted from the captain a bill upon the cousgueos for hisi dikburgemots; iusuriug a sufficient portion of the cargo to cover the amount of the bill. The vessel was lost,- and the defendants, with whom portions of the freight were insured, refused to pay the plaintiffs the insurance. A verdict for the plaintiffs, for £6O damages and 40s. costs, was given in each case, with leave for the defendants to appeal to a higher court. • DELIVERY OF GOODS—HOWARD V. SIIITIL—ThiS was an action for the recovery of £lOO 19s. 6d., the value of goods sold and delivered. After some evidence had been gone into, it was agreed to refer the matter to a third party, a verdict being given for the plaintiff, subject to reference as to the amount. ACTION ON A CHARTER PARTY—PRESTON AND ANOTHER v. POWELL.—In this case the plaintiffs, who are the owners of the ship Giaour, sought to recover from Mr. Powell, the defendant, the sum of £BOO upon a charter party. It appeared that, in the month of July, 1852, the Giaour, a vessel of 270 tons register, was at Monte Video. At that time the defendant entered into a charter party with the captain as the agent of his owner, under which charter the captain was to proceed with the vessel to Penguin and Jova Island, on the coast of Patagonia; and having there received a complete cargo of guano, to pro- ceed thence to St. Pierre, Martinique, or to a good safe port in the United Kingdom, calling at Cork or Plymouth for orders. The shipowner was to be paid 255. per ton freight on the cargo, and was also to share with the ship- per the profits arising from the sale of the cargo. Sub- sequent to the signing of the charter-party, the defendant gave the captain instructions by letter not to part with the cargo at St. Pierre, Martinique, unless he could obtain for it at least £5 per ton. On his arrival at St. Pierre, the captain found that the defendant's agent, to whom he had been directed to deliver the cargo within the limit above stated, was dead. The successor to his busi- ness offered to effect a sale of the guano; but the selling price being only £6 per ton, whereas there was a duty of £2 per ton upon guano, and the captain being informed that in England the selling price was only about £3 per ton, whilst in New York it was £7 or £8 per ton, he con- veyed his cargo to the latter port, and there disposed of it. The plaintiffs received the half of the profits of the sale, but it was contended that they should receive freight from Martinique to New York. On the other hand it was urged that, by sailing to New York instead of to England, the captain had broken the contract, and that the plaintiffs, therefore, ought not to charge freight for that voyage. After some consultation, the defendant agreed that the matter should be referred to a mercantile gentleman in this town, and that a verdict should be entered for the plaintiff for £BOO damages and 40s. costs, subject to that reference. STEEL v. BIIGGIANI.—On this case being called, it was intimated as having been agreed that a verdict should be entered for the defendant for £lOO damages with 40s. costs. DISPUTED QUALITY OF GOODS—STAG AND OTHERS V. LIORPE.—This was an action for the recovery of £33 9s. 2d., balance of an account of £43 9s. 2d., due for a quantity of steel delivered by the plaintiffs to the defen- dant. The defence set up was, that the steel was bad, and that, when it was sent back to the plaintiffs for that reason, they refused to accept it. A verdict was given for the plaintiffs for £3l 9s. 2d. This case closed the business of the day, and his lord- ship dismissed the jury, leaving the remaining cases to be disposed of by Mr. Justice Crowder. (Before Mr. Justice Crowder and a Special Jury.) ACTION UPON A GUARANTEE. NORTH BRITISH INSURANCE COMPA,NY U. LLOYD.— This was an action brought to recover the sum of £5OO upon a guarantee which had been given by the defendant, Mr. John Buck Lloyd, the Mayor of this town. Mr. Atherton, Q.C., with Mr. Millward, appeared on behalf of the plaintffs ; Mr. Attorney-General Knowles and Mr. Manesty for the defendant. Mr. ATHERTON, Q.C., in opening the case, said that the plaintiffs, the North British Insurance Company, were an incorporated body, their chief office of business being in Edinburgh, but having branch offices in Liverpool and London. The defendant was Mr. John Buck Lloyd, a gentleman of the highest social and professional respecta- bility, who had practised for-many years in this town, and who had obtained honour, which he had no doubt merited, the approbation of his fellow-townsmen, and now filled the office of Chief Magistrate of this important borough. The action was brought upon an agreement of a guarantee which was entered into by the defendant and three other gentlemen, namely, Mr. Ambrose Lace, Mr. P. W. Brancker, and Mr. James 'Bourne, each of them for the sum of £5OO, and which guarantee was given by them on behalf of Sir Thomas Brancker, now deceased. It was part of the business of the North British Insurance Com- pany, and had been so for many years, to make advances of loans on proper security, and amongst the securities which they were in the habit of taking were railway shares. In pursuance of their ordinary course of business, upon application being made to them by Messrs. Townley and Whitehead, brokers, on the 28th October, 1840, an agreement for a loan was entered into between the plain- tiffs and Sir Thomas Brancker, and out of that loan the guarantee, which was the subject matter of the present action, subsequently arose. The loan granted under the agreement was £lO,OOO, to be repaid with interest, at the i rate of six per cent. per annum, and, as a security, certain railway shares were deposited by Sir Thos. Brancker, the plaintiffs having power to sell the shares to realise the ! amount of the loan, and also to demand, in the event of their becoming depreciated to a certain amount, additonal security. In due course, the loan would have become repayable on the , 26th Oct., 1847; but, previous to that time, in the month of September, the value of the shares deposited had become so depreciated that the margin of 20 per cent., as per agree- ment, was found not to be maintainable. Accordingly, Mr. Douglas, the secretary to the company, finding this defi- ciency, made application to Messrs. Townley and White- head, on behalf of their principal, Sir Thomas Brancker, requiring further security ; and, ou the 30th of September, those gentlemen notified to Mr. Douglas their readiness to deposit, on the part of Sir Thomas Bancker, as the addi- tional security required, thirty Harrington Dock shares, with power to realize by sale. On the 14th of October those shares were deposited with the plaintiffs, and the time was then drawing near when, unless some fresh arrangement were made,. the £lO,OOO would become repayable. It was not convenient for Sir Thomas Brancker to repay the loan, and, accordingly, still acting through his brokers, Messrs.. Townley and Whitehead, he made application to the com- pany for a renewal of the loan, which, upon certain terms, was ultimately agreed to for an extended period of six months. The loan was renewed at the current rate of in- terest, and Sir Thomas Brancker deposited with the com- pany his brother's (Mr. James Braucker's) acceptance on his draft of £2,000, at six months, as collateral security, to cover any deficiency which might arise beyond the value of the stock. As a portion of the fresh arrange.. meat, Sir Thomas Brancker wished the company to forego their right to insist on the margin provided by the ori- ginal agreement being maintained ; but the company, on consultation with their solicitors, Messrs. Duncan and Radcliffe, declined to abandon their right in this ; particular. On the 26th of October, 1847, the fresh loan was completed, the conditions being the same as in ' the original agreement, with the exception that interest would be charged at the rate of eight per cent. The loan was to fall due on the 26th of April, 1848; but on the 7th of January, 1848, Mr. James Braneker wrote to Mr. Alexander Smith, the chairman of the company. The letter was dated the 7th of January, 1848, and was as follows :—" My dear sir,—l thank you for all the trou- i ble you have taken in the arrangement with Mr. Moon, and I have now to beg your kind intervention with the North British Insurance Company. We have been making an arrangement of the guarantees of Sir Thomas's stock, so as to separate the liabilities and not let them bear too heavily on any one. He will call upon you with the one prepared for the Insurance Company to replace my pro- missory note. [No doubt a misdescription of his accept- ance.] It is a better arrangement for them, and we trust that you will remove any difficulty.in the matter. lam sure you will lend your aid, and that, if necessary, Mr. Crossthwaite will also assist you." This was the first suggestion of any guarantee whatever, and it was a propo- sition solely emanating from Mr. James Brancker, who was in the confidence, and, no doubt, had the sanction of Sir Thomas Brancker for what he offered. The company did not solicit it ; it was no advantage to them, for both then arid at the time of his death, Mr. James Brancker was a perfectly solvent person. His draft would become due in the course of a few months, and it represented security for £2,000, fully as good as the guarantee. When Mr. Brancker's letter was laid before the directors of the company, they expressed their willingness to consent, provided they had the approval of Messrs. Townley and Whitehead for so doing ; and Mr. Douglas accordingly wrote to them on the 17th of January, informing them of the offer of Mr. Brancker to substitute for his accept- ance a guarantee signed by Mr. John Buck Lloyd, defend- ant, Mr. Peter W. Brancker, Mr. Jas. Bourne, and Mr. Ambrose Lace, for £5OO each. In the afternoon of the same day, Messrs. Townley and Whitehead wrote to Mr. Douglas, sanctioning the change of securities, and the matter was then completed. Shortly after the 18th of January, the directors having discovered something in the guarantee, submitted it to Mr. Duncan ; and that gentleman having considered it, was of opinion that its validity would be doubtful unless a sufficient considera- tion were stated on the face of it. He had no doubt that the gentlemen whose names were attached to the guaran- tee meant to be bound by it, and that in rectifying the error, he would only be at the same time consulting the interests of his clients, the Insurance Company, and car- rying out the intention of the guarantors. His opinion was communicated to them, and in the end the guarantee was withdrawn, and a fresh one drawn up, and signed by the guarantors on the 14th of February, 1848. It was upon this guarantee the present action was founded. In April, 1848, the loan expired, and, as the shares were daily depreciating, it became necessary for the company to look after the securities. On the 10th of June the de- fendant and the other guarantors were communicated with, informing them that unless the loans were settled it would be necessary to realize the securities. Several other communications were made from time to time to the guarantors, but no objection or remonstrance was re- ceived from them ; and after a length of time the securi- ties in shares, which had so depreciated that the company was left in deficiency the sum of £5,000, were realized, and now the present action was instituted to recover the respective amounts from the guarantors. The learned counsel, in conclusion, commented upon the pleas which had been put upon the record by the defendant, He said they could not be maintained either in law or fact, and more particularly the third plea, which attributed to the plaintiffs a fraud in the transaction by not fully stating to the defendant Sir Thomas Brancker's circumstances at the time they obtained the guarantee. Evidence was then given in support of the case as stated by the counsel for the plaintiff, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then proceeded to state the case for the defence. He observed, that though the open- ing statement of his friend, Mr. Atherton, had occupied so long a time, it would be found that the question was one which resolved itself entirely into a point of law, and that would speedily appear when he had placed before the court one single fact, which he believed would not for a moment be disputed. And when he had done that, it would be for his lordship to say whether, in point of law, there was a defence upon the third plea, upon the terms of which his learned friend had quarrelled. He meant the plea of fraud and misrepresentation, which Mr. Ather- ton, as a lawyer, well knew was not intended to convey any imputation in the sense in which the word fraud generally bore, because it was only a term which the law used to oxpress that sort of defence which was resorted to in the present action. The law adopted that term, and it w UM to signify the keeping hack 0 certain infer-

What though the sun in beauty shine, And you have countless hoards of wee.th ; What though the world—all, all was thine, If you but want the blessing, Health. Dr. DE ROOS' PILULE VILE, or VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS. A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may be administered to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate Invalid, by merely regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the person. They remove all Disorders and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals, Indi- gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless- ness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance; and while they act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase the strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddiness, Singingin the Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heavy Drowsy Sensa- tions,—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy, Paralytic Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by a few doses of these Pills. They also produce sound refresh- ing. Sleep, a keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy ininvigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few instances, where occasionally employed in Families and Schools, will other assistance be needed. For Females they are truly excellent, removing Headaches, Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dim- ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the Complexion. Ladies, however delicate, will find them parti- cularly beneficial both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that can be taken. _ _ Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not once required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied this would be the case generally, if people were not so much governed by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near Melton Mowbray: " Having read your advertisement, 1 felt assured your Pills would be of use to some of my poorer neighbours. I have had 12 boxes, and they have derived great benefit from taking them. I shall continue to recom- mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax : " I find your Pilulx Vitie a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent- wrog, Tan-y.Bwlch, North Wales : "Mr. Warner's compli- ments to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so much good as his Mlle Vitae." Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store more important articles of health than the above, which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad ; as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these Pills never-failing restorative. iMPORTANT.—Some unprincipled Venders, when asked for Dr. DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Pur- chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding, from which they obtain a larger prc&t. The GENUINE have the words " WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," in white let- ters on the red ground printed in the stamp, affixed to each Box, by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Com- missioners, to protect the Public from )gaud, and to imitate which is Felony.

I FOREIGN' INTELLIGENCE, FRANCE.—AII the troops destined for the Camp of the North are either already arrived or on their march to their cantonments. They form three divisions, the head- quarters of which are to be established at Boulogne, Wim- ereux, and St. Omer. Every branch of the service is perfectly organized, and staff officers are now marking out the most eligible spots between St. Omer and Boulogne where the army may manoeuvre without causing damage to the crops. The grand manoeuvres are not to take place until the last two weeks of September. The Messager de Bayonne of the 19th gives some details of the Im- perial movements :—The Empress takes her bath in the sea every morning, while the Emperor visits the works of the new imperial residence, which are to be completed in ten months. The chateau is to be called the Villa [ Eugenie. The effect produced by the baths has been favourable to the health of Her Majesty, and she will con- tinue them for about a month longer. The Emperor will return to Paris at the end of this month. But Her Ma- jesty will remain until the 20th of September. SPAlN.—Bayonne despatches of the 21st and 22nd give the following as the latest movements and rumours :—The disarming has commenced at Madrid. General Dulce has taken possession of the command of Catalonia. With the exception of the cholera, which is raging rather badly, the situation of Barcelona is tolerably satisfactory. A royal order directs the remaining surveys to be urged on as rapidly as possible for the line from Madrid to Portugal. Emigration is on the-increase. .31. Mon and 31. Augustus Collantes have left for a foreign country. The present tranquillity at Madrid is only apparent. Queen Christina is still kept in the Palace with the Duke de Rianzares. Her children have quitted Madrid. Three of them have already passed to Bayonne, and the others are expected. Queen Isabella left the Palace on the 18th, and drove out on the Prado with the King and her daughter, the infant Princess of Asturias. But few acclamations greeted her on her passage. The cholera has broken out at Seville, and has caused such terror in the neighbourhood that the inhabitants of towns and villages positively refuse, in spite of the orders of the authorities, to allow any one fiom that city to enter their walls. "At Arahal, Orano, and other places," says the Espana of Madrid, " travellers have been pelted, fired at, and refused every thing, even water." ITALY.—Letters from Naples, in the Monitor Toscano of the 16th, state that two-thirds of the inhabitants of Naples have emigrated on account of the cholera. Among the victims of the epidemic are the Duke of Lieto, General Nunzianti, and the Prince of Aci. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 19th announces that a treaty for the reci- procal freedom of the coasting trade has just been con- cluded between England and Sardinia; and that a treaty of commerce has also been concluded between Sardinia and the Sublime Porte. SAXONY.—The mortal remains of the late King of Saxony arrived, by railway, at Dresden on the 15th, and were conveyed with great pomp through the principal streets to the palace. Having been placed in the chapel, the body was left to lie. in state. The people were then admitted to visit the chapel, and during the night the coffin was left under the protection of an aide-de-camp, a chamberlain, a priest, and a military guard. SWEDEN.—According to letters from Stockholm, the capture of Bomarsund is likely to remove all further hesi- tation on the part of the Swedish government, who may now be expected to join the Western Powers. It is be- lieved that nothing but the fear of an unsuccessful result in the present contest has hitherto prevented that cabinet from uniting with the Allied Powers in resisting the aggressions of Russia. The government possesses a re- serve fund of $4,000,000 for extraordinary expenses, which will prove exceedingly useful in case of war being declared. AUSTEIL-A circular has been forwarded by the Aus- trian government to its foreign diplomatic agents, of which the following is the sense :—After alluding to the propositions made by Russia on the 29th June, and by France ou the 22nd July, the Austrian minister ob- serves, that although the position of this empire is consi- derably changed by the evacuation of Moldavia and Wallachia, two most important facts must not be lost sight of:-1. Notwithstanding the evacuation of the Principalities, the war continues between Russia on the one side, and England, France, and the Porte on the other. 2. That-all treaties between Russia and the Porte have been abrogated by the present war, and have not regained validity by the evacuation of the Principalities. The Austrian government, in principle, approves of the conditions of peace proposed by the Western Powers, and conditionally agrees to them. The Austro-Prussian treaty of April 20, is, in spirit, in accord with the stipulations in question ; not exactly in word. It is hoped that the Court of Berlin will not be of another opinion ; but should such, unfortunately, be the case, it will lead to no change in the foreign policy of Austria. For the present Austria will maintain an armed neutrality. If this be correct, and there is every reason to believe it is so, more straightfor- ward and manly language cannot be desired. PRllSSlA.—Considerable sensation has been caused at Berlin by a very simple fact. The King has ordered that a marble tablet, with an inscription in letters of gold, shall be placed at the spot where the first soldier fell in 1848 from the fire of the insurgents. This act of repara- tory justice has given rise to some protestations, not, however, of a turbulent character, but leading to several persons being arrested, or summoned to appear before the magistrates. The latest accounts speak of active prepara- tions for defence on the Prussian coast of the Baltic, more particularly at the mouth of the Vistula. RussiA..—Accounts from St. Petersburg state that the distress caused throughout Russia by the war is excessive. The total prostration of business and the high prices of all necessaries entail hardships far more severely felt than the momentary privations among classes accustomed to instability of resource. The maritime towns of course suffer most, inasmuch as the blockade annihilates a trade which last year showed a list of seven thousand vessels entered and cleared. Hence the middle classes, at least in the west of Russia, would welcome the return of peace on any conditions.; and Nesselrode and the German party too, are reported to be strongly inclined for peace. This, may have led to the report that the St. Petersburg Cabi- net was willing to acquiesce, with slight modification, in the demand made for guarantees. The • old Russian or Muscovite party, on the other hand, is said to urge the continuation of war with unabated fanaticism. The Presse of Vienna has the following from St. Petersburg, dated the 10th :—" Count Nesselrode continues to mani- fest a strong desire for peace, and he has frequent confer- ences with the Emperor, whose illness is almost at an end. The Emperor goes out frequently, accompanied by Gene- ral Odlerberg, whose brother had a mission in the Princi- palities and Bessarabia, to report on the state of the Russian armies. This report is said to be very unfavoura- ble. He describes the armies as having neither subor- dination nor discipline, and as being almost iu a state of dissolution." CANADA.—By the Canadian Steam-ship Company's screw-steamer Cleopatra, Captain Salt, which arrived in the Mersey on Tuesday morning last, after a run of 12i days from Montreal, we had four days' later news from all parts of the Canadian provinces, and upwards of 100 pas- sengers. The screw-steamer Charity, Captain Paton, which left this port on the 25th ult., arrived at Quebec on the 7th inst., the passage occupying thirteen days. The elections had all concluded ; returns had been received from 123 constituencies, leaving two unrecorded. In a classification of these returns, published in a Quebec paper of the oth inst., it is stated that the ministerial members only number 47, whilst the anti-ministerial members are put down at Sl, thus leaving the present government of the Canadians in a minority of 31. The cholera was raging among the recently-arrived emigrants in Canada.

missionar JOHN CAMPB was ca SOUTH LANCASHIRI, 411. (Before Mr. B It ALAI Lulu this morning commenced with :onnected with the death of Emanuel G ailed Valparaiso, another of the Mal tied on the homeward voyage of the Ile evidence was similar to that given nd on the former trial of the prisoner. .eumstanc z, otherwi A tfieCe-com The deem: ppears, was a stout man when from deficiency of food and ill-treatniE e bet:am emaciated. After the examination of the witnesses 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 LORDSHIP 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 DOCKS.—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 caine 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. CirrLD MITBDEL—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 MA-NCHESTER.—Catherine Jones, seMP:stress, was indicted for having, at Manchester, on the night of the sth of July last, feloniously broken into the dwelling-house of James Brown, Dude-street, Manchester, and stolen a quantity of wearing apparel. The jury_ re- .• turned a verdict of guilty, and fwd previous convictions of the prisoner having been proved, she was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment with hard labour. MANSLAUGIITZIL 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 AT RA.DCLIPPE.—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, 56 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 Motuit-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 wag in an unconscious state of maid when ad-.

THE WAR WITH RUSSIA. PERHAPS the most exciting event which has yet taken place in the progress of the war is the cap- ture of Bomarsund, the Russian fortress on the Aland Isles, at the mouth of the Gulf of Bothnia ; and the most has been made of it by the ministerial organs, in order to persuade the public into the belief that the war is being prosecuted with vigour. It cannot be denied that the affair afforded an ample proof that the crews of the Baltic fleet have lost none of the courage and energy which shone so conspicuously at the Nile and Trafalgar. It may also be affirmed that the capture of Aland is im- portant, not only as providing a wintering place for the Baltic fleet, but serving to convince Sweden of the necessity of co-operating with the Western Powers in active hostility to Russia. It may also serve to convince the CZAR of the folly of under- valuing the prowess and resources of the force opposed to him. Still, with all these advantages, the question will force itself upon public attention, that the immense power possessed by Admiral Nernra might ere this have been exercised against the more important strongholds of Helsingfors or Cronstadt. There is a strong suspicion existing in many minds that our commanders have instruc- tions from the ostensible heads of our Government at home, to do as little injury as possible to Russia, consistently with keeping up a show of active hos- tilities ; and nothing has yet occurred to remove such a suspicion. We were told some weeks since by the ministerial organ that the fortress of Sebas- topol was being attacked by sea and land, and even the day was named on which the operations were being commenced ; but, though nearly four weeks have since elapsed, all that we have heard by elec- tric telegraph is the anticipated departure of the troops for the expedition to the Crimea ; so that the public must continue to exercise patience for some time longer, until, perhaps, in the meantime we may learn that negotiations have been renewed, in order to kindly oblige the CZAR with the delay which was never more necessary to him. An important feature in the last week's news is the occupation of the Danubian Principalities by the Austrian forces. If confidence can really be placed in the sincerity of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, this circumstance may prove of considerable advan- tage to the Allies, inasmuch as it will enable the Turkish troops, flushed with their victory over the retreating Russians, to be beneficially employed in the reduction of the Crimea ; but unfortunately the conduct of the German Powers has been so vacil- lating, that the public are but little inclined to place any confidence in Austrian professions. The pro- tectorate of Russia over Moldavia and Wallachia will be substituted by that of the Emperor AUSTRIA, who has promised to restore them Turkey on the conclusion of hostilities ; but, ng he be playing false, he may be more difficult Ort lodge than the Northern Autocrat, while it is at all times easy for diplomatists to find a pretat:di evading a treaty, when it is not convenient to fol' its requirements. On Thursday, the telegraph annotmced the/ the Turkish army in Asia had been totally routed re. the Russians, who had captured—so said the port—no less than 23,000 Turks, leaving' 3'ooo Lad dead on the field of battle. It was, however, ste-i, that the report came from Russian sources ; 6110 , as the facility of the latter to convert defeats illecti victories is well known, the announcement failly to create any great excitement. It was ill restg overdone, the capture of 23,000 prisoners te.ro something beyond the bounds of probability. lthe also well known to be an important point the Mohammedan faith to believe that death on a field of battle is the sure passport to Paradise ; 11114 therefore it was the more unlikely that loil'eo Turks would allow themselves to be captured' I; their death would have been the road to ete The public, consequently, refused to rVeice t story, and Russian hyperbole failed in its effect'," any were intended. MR. DISRAELI A CHAMPION PROTESTANTISM THE address of the Liverpool Working `',;ti, Protestant Reformation Society to Mr. Eqs°..olo expressive of their confidence in him as champion of our Protestant institutions, of been eagerly seized upon by the orgy ° Liberalism, as an opportunity for raking ul3O the slanders which unscrupulous malev'e-t,e, can suggest, and to which some of the all cedents of the Conservative leader may hay 10. some degree laid him open. We are not the gists or defenders of all that Mr. DisBAELI has as ta and done during a long and active life devote er literature and politics ; but in these days of 10 sion of principles, with such instances as the preSCe Ministry can furnish, it is a contemptible Preteiloe of political virtue to breathe a word against 4, consistency of one who may fairly challenge c .;j5, parison with the most immaculate of his rig' co The question has, however, a higher signoe;it than a petty squabble respecting what this or oe man may have said or done twenty years aga' detractors of Mr. DISRAELI may say their and after all it will not do away the simple yet 1# portant fact, that, since the defection of the latex ROBERT PEEL, he has been the consistent, untiring, and by far the ablest champion 64 to Conservative cause. Without any other notice than his own ability, he reached the 'l;d manding position of leader of the landed aristac4 of England; and, though the pride of birth 1..0 have felt humbled by his want of it, the subrol°jere to his leadership was a necessity which all 'ea' a compelled to admit. We might have preferred', man with more of the prestige belonging to Are 0 Lion, but it would be the height of ingratitu;cb reject aid which was never more wanted, and lot was rendered with such consummate ability, axe even his enemies were compelled to ackacw:ecer his superiority. It is a fact beyond cavil, 110-10 reluctant may be our admission of it, tialtLce of the Conservatives have had all the adranoe numbers and respectability, their opponent° at tale monopolised that boasted administrative which is deemed indispensable to ministers' 'ater The Protestant cause has had greoeil advantages in point of numbers, and yet has t incapable of progress, from deficiency °f the 0320 taut element of an able leader, with an intelllgi for,, ground of action. It was the mischief Of 3 Conservative administration, that it waS identified with antagonism to Rome, but rather 1,8 reverse; for it was Sir ROBERT PEEL Who glbs permanent endowment to Maynooth College' d withdrawing the grant from the annual votere3 Parliament. However the question may be fritteg of away with ingenious casuistry about differenee'd doctrine, the real point at issue is discourager°lo and resistance to Romish aggression, in whaie form it may be presented ; and this will never be accomplished so long as the present ster: 0 allowed to retain their places. Lord J. BT:6:ylow has avowed himself as a champion of ProtesW4 and at one time laid claim to support by praetiehO separating the sees of St. Asaph and Bangorno; his predecessor had in vain been called upon t4/0 of yet this, like his celebrated letter to the 0511Ci'ilit DURHAM, was but a paroxysm of a better :i.joa. which all his other actions have belied. 141° 4 ill der, then, that those who take a deep intereei tfie, a question of such vital consequence, and fe ,0016 disabilities under which they have laboured,il to gladly seize the opportunity afforded, and ba proffered leadership of one who has showll so consummate a master of political conflict' riatt have no need, on the present occasion, to enteo 0 any question as the fitness of Mr. DISB Alb assume the position of a champion of the 0, of England. We have simply to do with the ao tenance of our Protestant institutions 05 tbl nistic to the insidious designs of Rome ;3-0 their is a battle-ground upon which all may , 1. stand, in the full conviction that success ea- 01' be effected by maintaining the Conservative 13

reque expense incur will, on that occasion, be charged SIXPENCE Eiberpool 'tanbavb. FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. MONDAY MORNING moceedings of HER MAJESTY and the d 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 -n of this season to a SOVEREIGN usually devi tes a portil 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 Smolt, 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 file 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 PRINcs 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 Drocssn and Lord HEYTESBURY, 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 cent edifice, St. George's-hall, inangization of the magni and the formal ceremony of opening your splendid Temples of Justice, are not to be graced by the august presence of HER MAJESTY and PEnecE 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, sou e 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 RECENT COURTS MARTIAL AT this dull season of the year, when it is diffi- cult to excite public attention to anything more serious than a boat-race, the recent courts martial which have been held at Windsor have occurred most opportunely, not only to afford a topic for comment, but also to obtain that attention which they deserve. Had the inquiry taken place at an earlier period of the year, it is possible that it might have given way to discussions about the Reform Bill, or the proposals for new taxes to carry on the war ; but, fortunately, the " gentle- manly" conduct of the officers of the 46th Regi- ment did not reach its culminating point until the public had opportunity of leisure to listen to the details, and we may now expect that the proceed- ings will not have been taken in vain. It has rarely been the case that so much unanimity of opinion has been shown on any question in which personal interests are involved ; for, almost without an exception, the Press has joined in condemnation of the prosecutor or persecutors of Lieut. PERRY, and demanded a remedy for the abuses alleged in a voice which cannot be mistaken. Nor is this the sole result, for the exposures which have taken place necessarily lead to the inquiry whether similar practices are pursued by the officers of other regiments, and though they may not form the subjects for a court martial, it will be the duty of the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF to take such pre- cautions as will effectually prevent their repetition. Had the treatment of which Lieut. PERRY com- plains been confined to the practical jokes of the junior officers, the annoyance, however disagreeable, might have been attributed to the exuberance of animal spirits, which too often leads young men to commit actions unbecoming the character of officers and gentlemen. It appears, however, that the evil is more deeply seated, and that the treatment which this young man has experienced is but part of a system by which miserable pre- tenders to gentility seek to rid themselves of one who has only his own exertions on which to depend. There can be little doubt that the Colonel of the regiment, if not an actual participator, was pas- sively an accessory, by doing nothing to repress such conduct; and the attempts made throughout each trial to prevent the truth being elicited, not only by the officers who were called as witnesses and would recollect nothing, but by the official Prosecutor and the DEPUTY JUDGE-ADVOCATE, show a predetermination to sacrifice Lieut. PERRY in order to screen the corps from the opprobrium so richly merited. There is, moreover, the con- viction that some change is necessary in order to render proceedings by court-martial something better than the mere mockeries of justice, which they appear to be at present, and therefore it will be some time at least before the military authori- ties will be able to satisfy the public that justice has been done. The exigencies of the war will not be permitted as an excuse, though it has been made a convenient handle for sending out of the way those officers whose evidence was necessary for the defence of the accused ; and perhaps it is as well that the demands for active service afford an opportunity to cover the disgrace in which so many are involved, by finding them more useful occupation against the common enemy. In the meantime, justice demands that Lieut. PERRY should not be made the victim of a vicious system which the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF would do well to reform, or Parliament may take the matter into its own hands, and: make military offenders ame- nable to courts of justice.

Catholics had originated e " Catholic Defence Wil- t whia assemblage at ded the n, and tt IPW (thP i saints of Ireland )f Larry O'Toole.' ns of man, we find that here, in spite RS, and the balmy influences of her er clear blue y landscape pre" lives :saer than are destroyed in tt e murderous s see, that in so far as ern indic land offers no anomaly to the condition of Romish In Protestant England we find the num murders amounts to four in a million ; in Ireland it rises to eighteen; in France the number rises to above forty; in Austria it is above fifty, and in some portions of the Pope's dominions it reaches sixty-eight. In this com- parison we may readily perceive the full effects of Popery ; proportionately as it is undisturbed in its operations, crime increases. We are told, and told truly, that this in a great degree depends on the bad laws which prevail. No doubt this is in part true ! But what is the cause of this? In Protestant England, with an enlightened press spread. ing its aegis over the land, such laws as those which give its chief virulence to Romish power &annot find a place. But in Romish countries, where opinions of every shape and of all dimensions must, as it were, lie down in a Pro- crustean bed, and be trimmed to the fashion of prescribed rule, we find such bad laws 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 to make a disburthening of the guilty conscience an equiva- lent for innocence, she introduces an element readily 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 frie,pds can readily purchase, the Romanist is taught to believe that his victim is released. The fall 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 saw 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 relie it done, and d from purp, tc that it could be done ese curre (Mr. Seymour) would an .

He hen said, to pre- e wished that he I him the book. finned, I was re- iiich I knew was art Seym I place ft mitted into gaol. The turnkey, however, who had had charge of him during his incarceration, denied this. Iu sum'. e clearest 1g up, his Lordship told the jury there was evidence that the prisoner had struck the th violence, and had caused her death ; and hat the only question 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. MANSLAUGUTEB AT BIBBY, BY A FARMER.—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. MANSLA.IIMITEE 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. FRAIT7D BY A GARDNER AT REDDIS/L—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. FIGHT IN A COLLIERY.—Robert Newton, 23, a collier, was indicted for wounding John Brockston, at the Walthem-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 prisoner. 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 lopked 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. Sentence, six months' im- prisonment with hard labour. GAROTTE ROBBERY.—Mary Ann McDonald, factory- worker, was indicted for a garotterobbery on the person of Henry Duckworth, an old farmer, of Oswaldwistle, near Accrington.

The dock-master said that she had all but cleared the bank hen the accident happened, and that two inches more of e floated her over. For the defence it s contended that, on getting the David into dock, the second tug was of no further it was in accordance with the ordinary and gener water would ha' .r ieming se; and that obserxed practice for her to leave at the time she did. Evidence in support of this view was adduced at great length. It was also contended that the damage sustained did not necessarily arise out of the unsuccessful endeavour to have the ship put into dock.—His LORDSIIIP, after alluding to the nature of the claim, and of the defence, and remarking upon the pecuniary damage in- volved in the case, although the jury would not be required to pronounce an opinion as to that amount, as if the verdict were in favour of the plaintiff, that would be made a matter of reference, then, with much minuteness, went over the various points of the evidence, remarking that, in many instances, the witnesses on each side per- fectly agreed. He next directed the attention of the jury to the points on which they disagreed, stating that the points at issue in a very great degree depended on the fact of assistance being rendered at a critical period of the tide. On this there appeared to be no conflict of opinion between the parties ; although considerable disparity existed in the evidence as to the particular nature and amount of the assistance required, and rendered. From all of which, however, it appeared that, if the Express steam-tug had remained, and if her power had been applied in endeavours to extricate the ship, she would have been got off. At all events, such was the bearing and body of the evidence for the plaintiff. He next, in the same minute and painstaking manner, went over the evidence for the defence, making such remarks as to bring the tendency of that evidence clearly before the jury, remarking that, in a great degree, the case turned on the particular time at which the operations were carried into effect, as related to the ebbing or the flowing of the tide. He further remarked that much of the case necessarily depended on the fact that the vessel, by the efforts made, could not be docked at all ; the contract being in the usual terms for docking the ship. It seemed, however, to be a prevalent notion among the tug-people, that the second or starboard tug should go away whenever the ship has got her stern in so far as the dock-gate, unless ordered to remain by the pilot or harbour-master, or some party in authority. All the evidence went strongly to establish as a fact, that the presence of the second steam-tug would have been of very great utility. An important element for the jury to consider would be, whether the damage sustained was such as might be reasonably anticipated to arise from the breach of the contract. If such damage could not have been fairly anticipated, or if the plaintiffs had been guilty of any manifest impropriety, from which impropriety the damage might have arisen, they would not be entitled to recover. He considered the jury might have three different forms of verdict—the first, for the defendants, in which case ther would be an end of the matter; the second, for the plaintiffs, with nominal damages, which would be to the effect, that the defendants had been morally guilty of a breach of contract, but —*Lug responsible for the absolute damage received; or, they might find for the plaintiffs, with substantial damages ; in which latter case, the amount would be a mat- without being ter of-reference. The jury retired at five minutes to nine a'clock, and, after a quarter of an hour's absence, returned The a verdict for the plaintiffs, with nominal damage: Court then adjourned. THURSDAY. ,nd claimed 1 hence the portion of the cargo to cover the amount of the bill. The vessel was lost, and the defendants, with whom portions of the freight were insured, refused to pay the plaintiffs the insurance. A verdict for the plaintiffs, for £6O damages and 40s. costs, was given in each case, with leave for the defendants to appeal to a higher court. DELIVERY OF GOODS—HOWARD V. SUITH.—This was an action for the recovery of £lOO 19s. 6d., the value of goods sold and delivered. After some evidence had been gone into, it was agreed to refer the matter to a third party, a verdict being given for the plaintiff, subject to reference as to the amount. ACTION ON A CHARTER PARTY—PRESTON AND ANOTHER V. PowELL.—In this case the plaintiffs, who are the owners of the ship Giaour, sought to recover from Mr. Powell, the defendant, the sum of £BOO upon a charter party. It appeared that, in the month of July, 1852, the Giaour, a vessel of 270 tons register, was at Monte Video. At that time the defendant entered into a charter party with the captain as the agent of his owner, under which charter the captain was to proceed with the vessel to Penguin and Jova Island, on the coast of Patagonia; and having there received a complete cargo of guano, to pro- teed thence to St. Pierre, Martinique, or to a good safe port in the United Kingdom, calling at Cork or Plymouth for orders. The shipowner was to be paid 255. per ton freight on the cargo, and was also to share with the ship- per the profits arising from the sale of the cargo. Sub- sequent to the signing of the charter-party, the defendant gave the captain instructions by letter not to part with the cargo at St. Pierre, Martinique, unless he could obtain for it at least £5 per ton. On his arrival at St. Pierre, the captain found that the defendant's agent, to whom he had been directed to deliver the cargo within the limit above stated, was dead. The successor to his busi- ness offered to effect a sale of the guano ; but the selling price being only £6 per ton, whereas there was a duty of £2 per ton upon guano, and the captain being informed that iu England the selling price was only about £3 per ton, whilst in New York it was £7 or £8 per ton, he con- veyed his cargo to the latter port, and there disposed of it. The plaintiffs received the half of the profits of the sale, but it was contended that they should receive freight from Martinique to New York. On the other hand it was urged that, by sailing to New York instead of to England, the captain had broken the contract, and that the plaintiffs, therefore, ought not to charge freight for that voyage. After some consultation, the defendant agreed that the matter should be referred to a mercantile gentleman in this town, and that a verdict should be entered for the plaintiff for £BOO damages and 40s. costs, subject to that reference. STEEL v. BUGGIANI.--0/1 this case being called, it was intimated as having been agreed that a verdict should be entered for the defendant for £lOO damages with 40i. costs. DISPUTED QUALITY OP GOODS-STAG AND OTHERS V. THORPE.—This was an action for the recovery of £33 9s. 2d., balance of an account of £43 Os. 2d., due for a quantity of steel delivered by the plaintiffs to the defen- dant. The defence set up was, that the steel was bad, and that, when it was sent back to the plaintiffs for that reason, they refused to accept it. A verdict was given for the plaintiffs for £3l Os. 2d. This case closed the business of the day, and his lord- ship dismissed the jury, leaving the remaining cases to be disposed of by Mr. Justice Crowder. (Before Mr. Justice Crowder and a Special Jury.)

MANUFACTURES MANCHESTER.—The market continues inactive, and throughout the week increased dulness has prevailed. Considerable caution is exercised by buyers ; those for the home trade being actuated by a feeling of insecurity until the harvest has been housed, and the foreign houses, but especially those connected with the India trade, in con- sequence of the unfavourable advices thence. Whether for home use or export, yarns have been less in demand, and prices may be considered *d to id in favour of the buyer. For India the inquiry is very limited, whilst the demand for the continent appears to have been satisfied for the moment. Manufacturers, who have for some time had to complain of the advance of yarn, whilst goods could not be moved up, now see a prospect of better terms, and until prices assume a more settled aspect, their operations areonly limited. Goods are very little inquired for, and prices have a further downward tendency. The Greek houses, though not purchasing so largely, are still operating. India goods are dull, and prices continue low. T-cloths, long cloths, and the better class of shirtings are more firmly maintained, as are also domestics. ROCHDALE.—A better demand for flannels, and the manufacturers are asking more for their pieces to meet the increased price of raw material. Wool a little firmor, and the demand steady. HUDDERSFIELD.—The wool trade' hrs been very quiet, but rather more has been done in wools than for some time before.

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'Hilliers ; 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. forces, have sur 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'Hilliers 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 carrying provisions, ammunition, &e., 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 Chasseurs, 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 truce was put out from a port-hole : they demanded a two hours' truce 19 bury their dead, and made use of the one hour ulti-

The effect of the new act which closes public-houses at an early hour on Sunday evening has had a most salutary effect at Birkenhead. Yesterday week there were 26 drunk and disorderly cases brought before the Police,. court, rather below the average; but yesterday morning there were only 4, a much smaller number than has l een known on a Monday morning for a number of years. AN EXTRAORDINARY POTATO.—A potato of the red kidney species, in a garden on the Edge Lane Farm, near Droylsden, belonging to Mr. T. Morton, of the Thatched House Tavern, in this city, has produced a top of the enormons length of 9ft. 6in. Throughout the garden the tops were unusually long ; but the yield of potatoes has been very good.—Manchester Guardian. Tun Ges QUESTIOX.—On Saturday a meeting of gas consumers was held in the Common Hall, Hackin's. hey to hear a report from a deputation, appointed at a previdns meeting, of their interview with the directors of the Liver. pool United Gas-light Company. Mr. Macfie occupied the chair, and, after a few preliminary remarks, introduced Mr. J. R. Jeffery, who detailed the result of the interview. He said the directors of the Gas Company informed the deputation that they intended to reduce the price of teas 6d. per thousand feet in the town, commencing in January next, on which the deputation expressed an opinion that the reduction might safely take place from the Ist of October, as they understood that during the past year the directors had been enabled to place their reserve within £3,000 of the maximum required by Parli They urged that the reduction might safely be expected to lead to an increased consumption, and t it they were quite 10d. The depu- in a position to make the tation also suggested that they rowing powers more fully, so that they for 4 or 41 per cent, instead of calling up more caps. which they would have to pay ten per cent. The direct, refused to make any change as to the extent of their reduc- tion in price and the time when it should take place, but said that they would raise, most likely, what fur- ther capital, they might require, partly by loans_ partly by calling on theircapital.

He moved an amendment to the effect seven shareholders, of whom three shall be a quorum, be appointed to investigate the company's affairs, and to examine and explain all the agreements entered into, and to report and advise generally as to the future policy of the-undertaking, with full powers to examine books, and to obtain such professional assistance as they may dem? desirable; and that the committee report to au adjourned meeting of the company to be held on the gist of t next."—Mr. Gandy, a director, seconded the amendment, which the following which was put and carried by 36 to 27, an gentlemen were appointed a committee:—:Messrs.

The folio COILIVERCIAL MONETARY NET'S MONDAYS NIGHT, WITH little to disturb the quietude which usually prevails at this season of the year, with no accounts of reverses from the seat of war except the apocry- phal report from Russia which no one believes, and with every prospect of realising the hopes of an abundant harvest, the money market during the week has been as favourable as could be expected, and this has been evident in the gradual improvement of the public Funds. 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. The Bank returns on Friday again show an in- crease in the stock of bullion; and the other items, particularly the public and other deposits, also show an increase, so that, so far as these returns may be considered an index of monetary affairs, they are favourable. 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

As a proof of their efficacy in bilious and liver complaints, I may mention the following case. A lady of this town, with whom I am personally acquainted, for years was a severe sufferer from disease of the liver and digestive organs. Her medical at- endant assured her that he could do nothing to relieve her sufferings, and it was not likely she could survive many months. This announcement naturally caused great alarm among her friends and relations, and they induced her to make a trial of your Pills, which so improved her general health that she was induced to continue them until she re- ceived a perfect cure. This is twelve months ago, and she has not experienced any symptoms of relapse, and often de- clares that your Pills have been the means of saving her life I remain, dear Sir, yours truly, " Nov. 23rd, 1852."
