      DEMONSTRATION FOR UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE AT IPSWICH . ( Abridgedfrom the Essex and Suffolk Times . ) The appeal of the Working Men's Association to 4 ke operatives of Ipswich met with a cordial response -on Wednesday evening last . The spacious Lall cnder the literary Institute was too small to contain -the numbere that flocked to the meeting , and huul&reds of persons ¦ were necessitated io remain on the . onfcade , not being able to obtain ingress . The hour -filed for the chair being taken was seven , but busi--Bess did not commence until twenty minutes past , -when , on the exterior and in the interior of the bnildjBE , there conld not have been less than 2 , 000

      • personspresent . . _ ' * . Mr . Charles Bird , painter , took the chair , and ^ aid—Brother working men and fellow-townsmen , I iave to thank you lor the nononr you have done me . in placing me in this silnation on tnis very _ important occasion . In the first place I have-to claim at jour iaiids joorSindnwrulgencein opening the business trfthe « Tening . ( Hear . ) Our object in thus meeting is the welfare of the whole community . ( Hear , l »* r . ) Our object is not confusion or disorder —( hear , and cheers;)—and it appears quite plain that the magistrates of this town have no idea that 1 iere wffl be any confusion or disorder to-night ; for I cannot perceive that there are any ponce here or in -the neighbourhood of the meeting . ( Applause . ) Therefore it affords me considerable gratification

      that tbe authorities of the town place » o much confidence in the honest intention * of the Working Men ' sAswciadonoflpswich . ( Loudch » er # . ) We hare thought proper , at this time , to invitfl our fellow-townsmen to meet us for the purpose of adopting the petition of the Birmingham Union , -which ,, no doubt , you are all well acquainted-witb . That petition has already received the sanction of hundreds of thonsanC 8 of the -working men of England . ( Treroeudoas cheers . ) And I feel persuaded that the ^ forking men of Ipswich will also give it their support . ( Loud applanse . ) I ; is our intention , honestly , bol ly , and manfully to communicate to ' you the object of the Working Men ' s A > sociations this evening . Our object is to give equal rights to all —(

      enthusiastic cheering)—respecting . tVe rights of both rich and poor . We have been accused of having for eur object a general scramble . This I deny : our object is brothf rly love ; it is to create the leelmg oi love among all men , more particularly among the working classe * . ( Cheers . ) You know very well -that the Reform Biii has brwn pa » sed now abont six year *; and yon all know , to your sorrow , the situation we are now in , wbich ca . ses us to meet in this , way , and toendea \ our to unite ourselves for the vxpit-ss purpose of advocating aud maintaiuinff , ana also of demanding , onr nehts , and nothing more . { Lou d cheers . ) W e do not Snish to infringe on , or in any war interfere ¦ with , the property of any man or set ot men : We dwdre that all pruperrvshould be protected ;

      but at the same time , we tx ~ u . not allow the Jew to live and fatten on the industry of the many . ( Loud cht * er > . ) I am snrrounded by my brother working men , who will severally address you as working men . and I feel coiifi-lent that they will be able" to explain ? o vonr satisfaction , tbe objects had in -view by the -Working 2 kIeuV Association ; also what is necessary for the working classes to do , not oniy for-tbeir own benefit , fent for the whole of the community ; that is , as 1 stated befinv , to protect the property of ewry one . and to secure to every man his just rishts—the rights ofindnsvry . ( Prolonged applause . ) Yon know very well what have been the effects of the New Poor Law and that the object of that measure was to throw everv man on Ins own resources . To this 1 have no

      objection , provided it runs through all classes ot society . All I complain of is , that , like many other measures of out legislation , it did not begin at the proper end . ( ReiFerate < l cheering . ) Now . it is my belief that that Bui will itself have the effect of working the salvation of the country ; so Jar as it will set men to thinking , and make them determine that if they are to be thrown ou their own resources every man shall be thrown on his own resources , and fhat ' no set of idler ¦» shall roll in extravagance and Inxnry derived from the working-classes . ( Loud cheers . ) The working men are , 1 know , quite willing to remunerate every man that renders a service to his country , and 1 do not think they desire to art improperly towards thosft who nse their talents and

      ability in the cause of the public good . ( Applause . ) It afford * me p leasnre . to witness such a numerous body of mv feliow working men . I have no objec but the public good to prompt me on this occasion I have seen many great men placed on : the bench ¦ which I xiow occupy , and yon can see what can be ione by the TittelHgrence and perseverance Of the community—the working classes . It is far from me to nrge any man to aspire beyond the sitnarion he has a right to fill * , but I wish that every man might be placed in that comfortable situation to which his industry and perseverance entitle him . ( Applause . ) That is the sitnation in which I wish to see him placed . ( Long-continued cheering followed this address . )

      Mr . D . M'Phebsos -proposed the first resolution , Wfiichrnn as follows : —" That this meeting are of opinion that , required as they are universally to snpport and obey the laws of this country , nature and reason entitle them to demand that , in the making of the laws , the universal voice should be implicitly listened to ; and that , as they perform the duties of freemen , they must have the privil ges of freemen ; they are therefore convinced that the suffrage must be naiversaL" ( Tremendous cheers . ) Mr . N . Whmpeb , wine merchant , in seconding ¦ fee resolution , made the following , " amongst many others , excellent observations : —If things are allowed to continue as they now are , what the situation of the country will be it isnot for ns to determine at

      present . Itis therefore essential that as citizens we should stir ourselves , and consider the evils . that bear ns down , and see if it lies in our power to make any alterations for the good of the community at large . Our object is to effect their good , and we now brine beforeyou a petition for Universal Suffrage . ( Cheers . ) On that poiut , I have no objection to acknowledge tlxat I once felt objections . I did not dive into questions of a political nature then as much as many others did . When 1 heard the term ^ Universal Suffrage" first , it struck me that it was not right or proper . ( Several voices here interrupted the speaker by crying out M adjourn to the hi ] l ; there are hundreds of people her »» who cannot come in . " Much excitement con tinned ;• ¦ . xmsequenceofthe pressure

      from wilhonl , bnt t * " ngth , order h > -ing restored , Mr . Whimper resnn . ) 1 believe there are number * of persons tha * 1 >~ \ e same opinion of Universal suffrage that j L . i'Jien—that look upon it with all but abhorrence , and conceive that it never can be conceded to the people , Bnt yon will understandi that Universal Suffrage does not mean every individual . ( A voice , '• We all pay taxes directly or indirectly . " ) True it is that we all pay taxes ; but it must not be supposed that the boy of twelve or fourteen years of age , or an apprentice is to fiave a vote . Those who are of twenty-one years of age , and unconcaminated with crime , are the persons whom we sh'mld wish to possess the franchise . ( Applause . ) It has been a ^ ked , ~ Would you give the Suiirage to a pauper r" I would say Yes . For why is a man a panper ? Oftener on account of bad government than from any other cause . ( Cheers . " ) Do you think

      that if we had good goreTuinent we should hove the Poor Law ? ( Cries of -No , " and cheersO Would the Corn Laws be continued to the present moment : ( "No . " ) Would there be so many infamous acts appearing on the Statue Book if . we had" Universal Suffrage : ( Renewed plaudits . ) Certainly not . Why ? Because it would have enabled the constituency to make choice of those men who wonld have done the most good for the country—who would have hindered the passing of those laws—would have done justice to the poor—and notallowed the erection of those Bastile * . ( Loud ^ cheers . ) The justice of all men having a vote i- s evident ; it is reasonable and proper that they should have it when- they come to years of maturity . Is there a difference in intellect ? Or was there from the beginning ? Did not God make all nations of the earth of one blood , although there have been and are distinctions of men ? To

      night we are mat here without distinction ? And I hope there will be an unanimity of feeling in favour of " ilioise measures which will be for the general good of all . ( Applanse . ) It i * supposed that the male population of the United Kingdom is about six millions ; and it is contemplated by the People ' s Charter to divide the conntry into three hnndred equal voting districts . If then the six millions of men be divided by three hundred , it will give a con-> titue . ncy of twenty thousand to each district . Mr . "VFMmper concluded by seconding the resolution . I he resolution was supported in s long and excellent speech by Mr . John Gosling , shoemaker . It was earned nnanunousl y , -srith . the most enthusiastic v&ciferations of applause .

      Mr . DatH ) Stoliert proposed the second resolution as follows : — "That , m order to secure the free and ancontroUsd exern ^ e of the franchise , the people must hare thft protection of the ballot that to make the connexion between the representative and the people beneficial and intimate , a new Parliament should be elected annually } th « itlsju » t and nght that the constituent body should have a free and unrestricted choice of the representative , and that their choice should be the only qualification ; and abo that the service * rendered bj their . representative should be adequately remunerated , in order to ensure the faithful discharge of his legislatorial function * . " ( Applause . ) Mr . J . Bran , bricklayer , seconded the resolution . The Chaulhax then read the Birmingham petition , sad

      Mr . Robzbt BooLBr , coach spring maker , proposed Ha adoption . / 6 Mr . H . GiLBRi&D ( carpenter ) in seconding die adoption of the petition , ob * emd ihtf thspeople raoared something more than good gorenunent , andynUwM the wctmtyforgoodgoTernment , which conld neter be made permanent or certain , until the people ' s interest in it is universal , and they are equally represented in the House of Commons . f Applause . ) The / had now begged and prayed for

      justice too long . They had a Reform Bill , the frui t * of which they were denied the benefit of . The Chaibmax pnt the petition to the meeting , who agreed to it unanimously . This was followed by tremendouB cheCTS . Mr . Samuel Clctten moved * 'That the petition lie at the Town Hall for three days for signature , and afterwards at the Ipswich Amu , Brook-street , for further- signature , previous to being sent to Birmingham , to be snbjoined to the National Petition . " In doing no , he addressed some appropriate observations to the meeting , in support of the Working Men Y Association .

      Mr . Ephraim Edgeley seconded the proposition , which was agreed to . It was resolved , on the motion of Mr . Robt . Ore ( carpenter ) , seconded by Mr . Henry Church ( carpenter , ) That the thanks of the meeting are justly due to the London Working Men ' s Association for their excellent outline of the People ' s Charter ; and to the Council of the Birmingham Political Union for tlie National Petition . " Mr . Goslino proposed a vote of tiianks to the Chairman for his conduct in the chair , and to the Working Men ' s Association for the active part they

      had taken in calling this meeting . ( Loud cheers . ) Mr . Charies Cook ( accountant ) seconded the motion , wbich wag agreed to with acclamation . Three tremendous cheers * echoed from the outside of the Hall , were then given for " The Morality of the Working Classes , " three cheers for " The Working Men ' s Association at Colchester , and thanks to the two members of that body who had attended the meeting , " and "Thrae times three for Universal Suffrage and the Birmingham Petition . " At eleren o ' clock the assembly broke up in the most orderly manner , and in ten minutes afterwards scarcely half-dozen persons were to be seen in the streets .

      THE VICTORIA STEAM-BOAT——FINAL CLOSE OP THE PROCEEDINGS . On Monday last , Mr . Baker , the coroner , and the jury brought to a final close the long-protracted proceedings in this important case . On t e names of the jnry being called over one was found to be missing , ard Deverill , the beadle , said that the gentleman , whose name is Donnell , was so severely indisposed a * to be quite unable to attend . There still being , however , thirteen jurymen present , the coroner went on with the proceedinssin th « cases of Jacob Heanens , James Young , Wiiliam Colville , Jacob Asper , George Clay alias Natchcroff , William iVl'Kinlay , John M'Donald , and James Wilcox Drrrington . Air . David Napier , Mr . Seaward , engineers , and Captain Hell , the commander of the / Vc / w / a , Brown , a fireman , and West , the pilot , were the witnesses examined ; and were each sworn eight times , according to the number of deceased persons .

      Mt . Hall , the managing owner of the company , and . Sir . L . Jacobs , bis solicitor , attended , as on every oilier occasion . After the tedious operation of signing the depositions bad been gone th ough , The Coroner proceeded to charge th « jury in the ense of James louug . Hevaid that although some witue .-ses had neglected to Te-appear and record their evidence in the cases now before them , as well as in the first case which they had considered , yet be lid not think it neces ? arv , after the nme that the

      jury had devoted to the inquiry , that they should be auy lonuer de . taiued . One of the witnesses , Mr . Dicken > on , of Blackiriars-road , had since his examination in the fh > t ca ^ H died , and others were ab-; -ent in various parts of the country . The verdict in this case , as well * s all the otliers , might be accompanied with a similar deodami as that named by the jnrv in the ca ^ e of Andrew Brown , it being understood , as he had before remarked , that not more thau oiieot tbeamoaiits would be demanded , as the property Bpon which it was le \ ied could be only oin'e forfeited .

      The jury then requested the room to be cleared , but in about hulf an hour the doors were reopened , when Mr . Peter Mellish said the jury had agreed in the whole eight cases to similar veraicts to that returned in the ca > e of Andrew Brown , namely , "Accidental Death , with a deodand of £ " 1 , 500 , at the s . nne time expressing the opinion of the jury that the const .-ucDon of the Boilers was unsafe , that the water spaces were too small and the plates too thin , and that the engineer had no control in the eng i neroom over the safety-valve . " The jury were then engaged for a long time in attaching their signatures to the necessary documents , which being done ,

      rae Coroner congratulated them npon the close of their labours , and presented his acknowledgments for the great attenrion they had paid to the very difficult and lengthened investigation in which they had been engaged . They had satisfied their own consciences , and the public wooLi be satisfied that they had done their duty . His ( the coroner ' s ) labours would not , however , close here , as he had that moment a copy of a writ de eertiorari put into nig ha . nd » by Mr . L . Jacob , the solicitor of the Hull Steam-boat Company , removing the proceedings into ihe Court ol Queen ' s Bench . The jury then separated .

      BRITISH ASSOCIATION FOB . THE AD TAN CEMENT OF SCIENCE .

      Nxwcastle-tjpon-Tyne , Aug . 20 . The most extraordinary improvements have for 60 me rime been going on in this town , perhaps , for the short space of time , unprecedented in any provincial one . in the centre of the tovrn , and surrounded with buildiDgs , was , until the last few years , a large uncultivated portion of ground , but which , by ihe death of the original proprietor , reverting into the more active bands of his legatees , became the area of the most remarkable enterprise . On it now stand streets of houses that will vie with any in the metropolis ; markets second to none in Great Britain ; a theatre , music-hdll , picture gallery , exchange , and the not less prominent object . ef the column to Lord Grey , to commemorate the passing of the Reform Bill . On this spot the majority of the meetiBgs of the association are to be held , and for the last

      fortnight no less than 2 , 000 men have been engaged , and the last week incessantly , nijjbt and day , in order to make the necessary preparations , and clear the streets . This singular metamorphose was completed on Saturday night , and yesterday there was scarcely a vestige remaining of tile operations which tue day before were most extensively carried on , everything being provided for the adequate accommodation of the meeting . The town is now very full , the number of members who had registered at the Town-hall on Saturday evening , at ten o ' clock , beingr , 1 , 734 . Every steam-packet from Londun , Leitb , and Hull has within the last two days , brought a great influx ; and the Ocean steam-vessel , which had been specially placed on the London station , arrived on Saturday afternoon with upwards of 120 passengers .

      TO THE WOMEN OF BIRMINGHAM . My nEAR Fries ns , I haTe twice called yon from your important domestic dnties to attend poblic meetings . I have there explained to you the causes which havebrought want to your board and care to your pillow . The iron pressnre made you ready to listen and apt to understand . Your husbands and brothers , your fathers and sons , have united in the great and glorious work of restoring the prosperity and independence of industry . I call upon you also—upon wife and sister , mother and daughter , to join in this holy league of righteousness and love , that the great family of the people may move irresistibly in their onward conrse , torecorerthe promises of abundance God has made to the diligent .

      The dull in intellect , the cold in heart , will sneeringly enquire—why do women leave their domestic occupations ?—wherefore are women made to meddle with politics ? Let this be your reply : — The idle have legislated for the'industrious , the wealthy for' the poor , and they have trampled upon iudnstry in their pride , andplunderedit in their greediness . They removed the taxes from the sources that supply luxury and folly , and laid them on industry that supports life . They removed the property tax of seventeen millions from their own shoulders ,

      and laid a tax of thirty millions on food , remorselessly taking from poverty a portion of even its scantiest meal . They taxed the Eng ) u ? h labourer in his bread , in his beer , in his tobacco , in his tea , in everything , and having thus burthened him , they have delivered him over to the free competition of the untaxed foreigner . They dragged the wife from her home , the child from its sport , to break down the wages of the hnsband and father . _ They made monopoly for themselves , and competition for us . They made laws to make us poor , and tken made poor-laws to depr ive us of relief . Therefore do the people gather together , and therefore do the women leave their homes to

      attend political meetings . We hear it openly acknowledged by both factwns of the State , that it is impossible , under its present burthens , the trade of England should be maintained in succe 8 sfnl rivalry against the competition of the untaxed foreigner . We know , therefore , that bad begins and worse remains . We ask ourselves , if the whole of our . trade breaks down -under the pressure of our burthens , what accelerated destruction—what multiplied miseries will come -upon ns when the whole of our burthens are brought to press upon hall onr trade ? We see our fatkers , husbands and brothers , worn in strength , and subdued in spirit , by di 8 proportioned toil , a * dthe more fatal agencr of care , and nnder the present system , we see only a fatality aggravating every present evil . We will not go through the terrible ordeal of suffering the strength of oar country to be withered by so cruel a poverty .

      Untitled Article

      Onr rulers coolly attempt to compel um to keep our burthens and lose onr trade . We are determined , fi > r the common safety , to throw off pur burthens , and preserve thfi trad * , the happiness , and the power of onr country ; and , therefore , do the women meddle with politics . .. .. The people have petitioned in . vain for twenty years ; their humble prayers have been refused , aud their increasing miseries disregarded . The factions have given to the unconauered people of England for their inheritance , a childhood without mirth , a manhood without independence , and an old age without honour or comfort ; therefore do the women meddle with politics , and the viho \ e family of the people unite forjnstice . "

      ...... ..,. The proud have steeled their hearts , but the poor have united their stregth , and there is a bond of unity in truth , a strength in virtue , and a weakness in guilt , and die cry of the oppressed ever reached the throne of grace . Let , then , the craven spirit submit , and the Jew spirit torture industry for its gain , and the scoundrel spirit laugh at the mortal agony of the country , and give no aid to the brave that battle far . the right , yet shall the people be delivered ^ and rejoice , for the women have meddled with politics . The agency of the women sent the missionary on hi » Christian pilgrimage ; it redeemed the slavery of the negroes ! If has ever triumphed , and it shall now secure the most glorious and perfect © f its

      victories . The men of Birmingham have set a noble example to the country . The women of Birminggham shall set a still more unrivalled one . Within a fortnight , fifty thousand women shall have signed the National Petition ; and if that petition be rejected , instant measures will be adopted for the safety of the great interests of tbe country . Then , women of Birmingham , I pray yon , meddle with politics , and I am , Your faithful friend , T . CLUTTON SALT . Birmingham , August 16 th , 1838 .

      —^^»— ROCHDALE . Rochdai / e Police . — Ot Monday last , in accordance with a resolution of tbe Commissioners of Police , eight persons were sworn aa special constables , to act in assistance of the present polio * force of Rochdale , on Sundays . Committal fob Gambling . —On Monday , at Rochdale , one of those pests who go about from fair to fair , enticing children to gamble away their halfpence was summarily dealt with , by William Chadwick , E . < u . Benrley , the beadle , stated that he took him in the act of gambling , near ChHpeJ House , on Sunday , with a crowd of boys around aim . He gave no account of himself , but begged to be let off with a tine . He was , however , committed as a vagrant for eight days .

      Spotland Workhouse . —On Monday , a woman of weak intellect , who had been toutid in the street at an improper hour , was brought before William Cbadwiek , Esq ., at the Session * Room . Mr . Stott , the Overseer of S p otland , said she was an inmate of their Workhouse . She went out on Sunday night , without leave . Many of the paupers then went out ; they both did go out , and -would go out , and there was no way to prevent them ; they always went out at pastimes ( it was the wake ) . Tlie ivom-an , he said , was not her own person , but shu knew better than to do as she . had done . Mr . Chadwick said the ratepayers ought to build a wall round the Workhouse , and take care and keep the pauper * within , except at proper . times .

      M 1 DDLETON . National Demonstration .: —On Monday , Mr . Henry Vincent , of London , addressed a public meetiujj , held in Ebenezer Chapel , Middleton , on the subjects of Radical Refonn aud the National Demonstration , about to be earned into eft ' ect . Mr . Wilde , the chairman , said it was now time for the weavers of Middleton to act . No mnn got his living by silk weaving who was not miserable . He hoped they would take notice of what Mr . Vincent said , and begin to unite , which they might do by jo ; ning the Working Men's Association . Mr . Vincent repeated the advice to unite ; the time was now come : tbe Kiug or Queen took cure of their prerogatives : the Peers did the same by their own

      iuterests ; the House of Commons was coupuseu of Jews , stock-jobbers , and monied men , all combining to keep down the working classes . He then tuok u view of the origin of the Reform Bill , and ol the Whig measures which succeeded it— the Irish Coercion Act , the Poor Law Amendment Act , and the violation ol the Canadian Constitution . Only ] 7 . Members of the House ot Commons were found to support the petitions for the repeal of the Poor Law Bill ; and when Lord Ashley described the sufferings of the factory children , the Honourable House burst iuto roars of laughter . [ Hear , hear . ] The . object of the National Association was to destroy this Parliament : they most break it up , by giving tu erery

      man ot sane mind a right to vote for the men who were to make the laws . He . explained the principles of Annual Parliaments , univer-.-al Suffrage , and Vote by Ballot , members ol the House of Commons were to be paid wages , and the property qualification should be dfine away with . The next move must be for Universal Suffrage and nothing else ; delrgtttes were to be ejected for every district , there would probably be three or . four hundred delegates chosen , and it would be strange if out of those they could not select forty-uiue to assemble in London ; the law only allowed the as-* embline of forty-nine delegates at one time and place , but they could take it in turns , a w * ek or so

      each , until the business was transacted . They should always have forty-nine sitting ; they would go upon the " Birmingham petition , and the delegates would call on the members oi 'Parliament and tell them their constituents demanded Uuiverbal Suffrage , mean time the working people should prepare for a week ' s strike , and they must doit by laying by whateveT they could , however trifling in amount or cost it was ; it must be done , by laying by a little , and then on a certain day , some Monday morning , for instance , the people might be called on to come out in their holiday clothes , not t . o go to work again until they obtained their political liberties . [ Hear , hear- ] The aristocracy would become desperately

      iidgetty ; by Tuesday morning they would be musing with their hands in their pockets , on Wednesday th « y would be for petitioning the people , as " The Parliament of hngland , to the honest people of England in holiday assembled . " They would then grant Universal Suffrage , and might perhaps throw them in a democracy to { he bargain . [ Laughter . ] The people were not to lear the soldiers ; the soldiers would do them no harm ; they were not to run away from them , or the police . The people would have all they wanted , though now they were told it could not be done . ( An old woman exclaimed , "Aye , but it can . " ) [ Laughter . ] If a few thousands struck , and it made a s-nsution , how much more when the whole people of London , Manchester , Birmingham , Glasgow , and all the

      other Jarge Cowhh struck in one hour , and all were directly on theirmarch to the metropolis . ( Applause . ) The speaker invited the operatives of Middlt'ton to make another link in the chain of union ; they must break up this Parliament . It was intended , in about a month , to hold a very large meeting aoiae-i where near Manchester , and he would have every workine man and woman to attend it , to come in immense numbers , to resolve to have one day ' s holiday , and to pledge themselves at their meeting not to submit to oppression any longer . ( Applause . ) The speaker concluded by pointing out the ' Weekly Chronicle and Weekly Dispatch ^ as papers in direct opposition to the working classes , and cautioned his hearers against purchasing either of them . He strongly recommended the Northern Star and London Dispatch , as supporters-of their cause . A vote of thanks was then passed , and the meeting separated .

      Constables' Accounts . —On "Wednesday , at too o ' clock , a meeting should nave been held in the Parish Church , Middleton , to inspect and pass the constables' accounts for the last quarter . At halfpast two , no ratepayers were present , and the worthy officials had to set to and ring the customary bells for some time , before a meeting could be got . In about an hour , half a score ratepayers were mustered , and the accounts were passed .

      HULL . Absconded Servant . —Oq Wednesday last , —— Murphy , a person in the employ of Mr . Mitchell , tobacconist , absconded , taking with him £ 380 , which he had received to pay some excise duties . Mr . Mitchell started in pursuit on the following morning , but the delinquent has not yet been overtaken . : ' ACCIDENT . —Yesterday week , as aehild belonging

      to Mr . Brown , joiner , was playing , it was percefted to be in great danger from a brewer ' s dray . Mrs . Brown ran to save it , and , in . her haste , both herself and the little one fell down , the dray passing over tbe child . The arm , face , and shoulders are much bruised , but we are happy to add that no bones are broken , and the little sufferer is in a likely way of recovery . Mr . Sharp , surgeon , saw the accideDt , and rendered the mo 3 t prompt and efficient assistance in his power . .

Sir John Franklin has taken the first stjeps towards the amendment of the Assignment Regulations in the sister colony , to the imperfection of which public attention has been excited . The above papers are not of so late a date as previously received by two days . . Accounts have been received at Havre , , by the Unite , from Monte Video , of the 6 th of June , stating that the blockade at Buenos Ayres still continued with the greatest vigour by six ships of war . They were expecting a declaration of war on the part of President Rosas , who was preparing a flotilla .

      They write from Miadrid , of the 23 th of August , that it was the anniversary day of the event which took place at ; La Granja | some Patriots wished to celebrate it by public manifestations , and Government , being informed of their projects , took every precaution that the peace should not be disturbed . At present all remained perfectly tranquil . In the Bourse at Madrid nothing was doing . An order has been received at Toulon to recal a a part of the division which is cruising before Tunis .

( From the Helvetie of the . 17 th inst . ) The affair of Louis Napoleon appears to be at present the all-engrosmng question and the order of the day in Switzerland ; The Helvetie takes the lead of the press of that country in vindicating tbe rights of the confederation , and urging the Diet and na . tion to resist the exorbitant demand of the King of the French , who , after bis repeated attacks against the neutrality and independence of the republic , still presumes to call himself its generous and faithfu I al ly . The measurse required by Louis Philippe had inflicted so deep ia wound on the national pride of the Swiss people , that the Juste in Heu itself did not hesitate to brand , with the utmost energy , so flagrant an encroachment on their rights as a nation , and the aristocracy preserved a sullen ,

      rhnugh significant , silence . " Switzerland , " savs rhnugh 'significant , silence . " Switzerland , " says rhe Helvetic , "is deter mined on supporting Wrights , and w& trust that she will not stop at any sacrifice . If the hermetical blockade were again to be resorted to on our frontiers , we should ourselves retaliate by forbidding all communication with France . Fe will prove to her that we can do without her , and procure elsewhere what we want . If France wage war against us , 40 , 000 carbines and an entire nation resolvbd on defending its homes will perhaps have hiore weight in the scale than the mere name of Louis Napoleon , and be attended with much more dunuerous results or complications . "

      " Let us thank Heaven , " adds Helvetie , "for being republican * and for having no other ambition than that of working for a livelihood , in perfect independence , without slaves or masters . At no former period did society exhibit a more ¦ profound immbrality , and display it with more effrontery . Its principal seat is in those regions where the fate of narionrt depends on a few heads adorned with trinkets , and on some servile courtiers , and thence it sralks abroad to corrupt all the inferior clashes . It would appear that it was not sufficiently rich and powerful to dare to commit acts which public morality has repudiated in all ages . " In the conflict which has arisen between

      Switzerland and France , between two countries whose alliance the revolution of 1830 ought to have * o closely cemented , we behold a , king reigning over 32 , 000 , 0 l 0 of citizens acting the bully before a people of 2 ^ 0 ( 10 , 000 of souls , and presuming to compel them to punish a fellotv-citizen , whom be himaelf did not consider it expedient to try when he held him in his power . We see a man ( the Duke Of Monti'bello ) who owes his fortune , rank , and houours to Napoleon , aceept , under the title of Ambassador ol another monarch , the part of a

      persecutor , pride in being a servile instrument , and striking blindly the nephew of the man but for whom he wbuld now be a locksmith , like bis ancestors . We see a prince , now a powerful monarch , but formerly an unhappy exile , who found in Switzerland a tranquil and secure refuge , menace th « hospitable land which sheltered him , and vow destruction upon it if it treats another as it once treated him ! Cowardice , servility , ingratitude , such are the virtues and the order of the day , and , strange to say , there are still nations base enough toflatter and extol them . "

      A letter from Thurgau states that the Grand Council of the Canton was to assemble on the 20 th to examine the note of the French Ambassador . " The sitting , " says the writer , " will be short and decisive ; the demand of France will be rejectrd , not only because Louis Napoleon is beloved in the country , but because our fellow-citizens bold to principles . "

      MONEY MARKET ( This Day . ) We have nothing new from the westward to-day , and the violence of the gale yesterday has prevented the arrival of the steamers from Rotterdam and Oatend . We perceive by the French papers that the railway from Paris to Orleans is e'jmmenced ; it is the first undertaking of the kind which has been attempted on a large scale in France , and great

      expectations are formed of the benefits likely to result from it : it is under the direction of Messrs . Andre and Cottier , riagermann , Pillet Will , and many of the first bankers in Paris , who have distributed shares in the enterprise amongst their friends and correspondents in all parts of Europe . The state of tbe weather continues to attract mueh attention in the city , as it is feared that an unfavourable harvest would damp the growing prosperity of the kingdom .

The market was also Well attended with buyers . The Howe fair is likely also to vq ' ual bur celebrated

      June fair , it bfcingwell attended with Horses ( prii £ cipally Nags ) , and worthy tbe attendance of ibf dealers ( of which there were few ) . On Friday there was an abundant show of Sheep and Lambs ; Fat Sheep may be quoted at from 6 d . to 6 £ i per lb . We may infer , from the number of Cattle shown and the ready sale for them , that the above will , next year , be equal to either of our other celebrated Fairs in October and April , as the attention of buyera is all that is requisite , the district around being farmed by some ef the most influential graziers in Yorkshire . .. ¦¦¦¦¦ .. ¦

      Hamburgh and Baltic red , and 4 i . to 5 s . en Par tiig and White Wheat .

Although there were not many Oats offering , yet the sale was heavy , and a turn cheaper . In Linseed no variation * Fovign Rapeseedl is held at coiiaiderably higher price , bat norhing doing , a small parcel or two of fine new English was sold at £ 32 and £ 33 per last .

      Newcastle Cattle Market , August '" 21 . — We had at our market tkis morning an increased supply of stock of every kind ; the number of shee p and lambs could not be less than 240 score ; *' .. * , the pens , though a number have been erected during * the last week , are not sufficiently numerous to afford aocomniodation to the quantity of that description of stock which has for several weeks been expesed for sale , consequently some scores have not been

      penned at all ; this inconvenience is very much complained of , but we are convinced that the suhj « t needs only to be represented in the proper quarht and it will be promptly attended to . Buyers were U good attendance , and much business was done at till early hour , with very little yariation from last week's prices ; they may be quoted as follows : — Beef 6 s . to 6 s . 6 d . ; Mutton , 6 s . 3 d . to 6 s . 9 d . ; Lambs and prime Sheep , 7 s . per stone , sinking offal .

      Newcastle Corn Market , August 2 i . — The weather having been uninterruptedly fine during the whole of last week , and the arrivals of wheat coastwise being considerable , the trade was exceedingly heavy on Saturday last at a decline of Is . per quarter , on country samples , and 2 s . per quarter on ship wheat , and very little business was done . This morning the same dullness pervaded the trade , and to ferce salw considerably less money mast hare

      been taken , ftye is pretty ready sale at last week !! orice 8 . Barley for grinding is still wanted , anJ commands high prices . Malt , if fine , is in fait demand , but inferior sorts are difficult to quit . Th « supply of oate was email , which were taken off without much alteration in prices . In beans and peas , there is little doing . Flour is very dull sale , and rather lower . The crops make slow progrea towards maturity , and harvest in this district cannot commence for a month or five weeks yet . , ;
