AMERICA , Litxbpooi , SiTirsDiT Moksikg . —By the arrival of | the Britannia Royal Mail steamer , Captain Hewitt , at this port , this morning , we have received Hevr York papers to the 15 th , and Boston to the 16 ih September , makingthe toyage in eleven days and » half from Halifax , and twelve days and a half from Boston . The steamer Caledonia , which left here on the 4 th September , arrived at Halifax in twelve days . The Britannia has brought about
thirty passengers . The following are extracts brought by ibis conveyance : — VsasD States . —In politics nothing new has occurred , exeept the meeting of a great T > olitical State Contention , held in the interior , which has taken up Mr . Tan JBnreh w the candidate of the democracy , and has instructed its delegates to sapport him in the National Convention ; This cats off the hope of every other candidate so far as this State is concerned . In other respects the political horizon presents the same Aspect as when we last described it .
The yellow-fever alarm has passed away , and no further apprehensions are entertained . We have had a wholesome change in the temperature of the weather , which most hare an effect to stop the creation of the miasma . Business is reviving to an extent beyond t > nr hopes . Both in New York , Boston , and Philadelphia , it is admitted there is much doing , and npon a basis which is believed to be sound . The cotton crop of the South is defective . The wheat crop of the North is most abundant . There had been a disastrous accident oh the Susquehannah Railway , occasioned by the breaking of the front axletree of the first passenger car , by which
that and the two following ears were thrown off the rails . A considerable number of persons were serionsly Injured . Forgeries to a very large amonnt have been oomznitted at New York , by whist the banks had been defrauded by false cheques , of £ 29 , 000 , by a person named Henry Saunders , a youth of eighteen , years Only . He made an unsuccessful attempt to board the Great "Western as she left New York on her last Toyage , bnt missed her , and went to Albany and Boston , At the latter place he was taken after having taken his passage to New Orleans ; subsequently , abont £ 26 , 000 of the money was recovered in the hands of Mr . sad Mrs . Raggi , in whose possession lie had confided it .
rXTBiOEDHfABT BuBGLaBT AND RoBBKRV . —The extensive jewellery store of Messrs . E . and S . S . iRockwell , of No . 9 , A 3 tor-hoose , has been burglariously entered , and valuable watcheB , silver , and jewellery , estimated at about twenty-Jive thonsand dollars , was stolen therefrom . All the elegant gold watches in the large case near the door were taken , aad all the valuable diamonds , one of which was estimated at 1 , 200 dollars . Gold chains , diamond rings , and breast pins were removed , and a large quantity of silver , tea , and table spoons , were taken amopg other valuables . It is strange that with such
a "valuable stock of jewellery , no person was kept to . sleep In the store . ; bnt is-still more strange , that such a robbery should take place In one of our most public thoroug&res , and the rogues escape detection . They will quickly jnelt the available gold and silver for immediate ' purposes , and retain the precious stones and other valuables , until & chance to 88 Bd them for disposal to some European , city . The Messrs . Rockwell offer a reward of 500 dollars for file recovery of the property , which if extended to as sjiuy thousands , will probably be the means of -restoring a large portion and arresting the thieves .
Casada . —The Wheat Crop and jWeathkr . — TFeare happy to hear from all parts of ihe country around , the most favourable -accounts of the wheat crop . Indeed , we have ample proofs of its being abundant in quantity and excellent in quality . We see daily arrivals in town of new wheat , and some lots have appeared in excellent dry condition , weighin as high as sixty-four pounds per bnfhel . The millers Teport the yield of flour as being large and good . Is the memory ef the oldest inhabitant there has not been known so long protracted a time of dry larvesting weather . Merchantable wheat in our market brings from 43 . 3 d . to 6 s , <> d . per bushel , — BvUnrn Gaxzile .
Serious Siotcsg has occurred on the Brantford canal , in Canada . The ringleaders have bees arrested . In Miramichi , toe , at Chatham , New Brunswickj there has been rioting , whieh is not yet suppressed , but only smothered by the exertions of the troops under Captain Grant . One or two lives are said , by the St . John's papers , to have been lost . It is right to add that that these riots are of a local , rather than a political character . The British schooner Arannah has been wrecked Bear Chaleur Bay , and seven lives lost . The steamer Adventure , ninety-eight tons , arrived at Quebec from Toronto a few days since , being the first steamer that has ever run down all the rapids , and made the whole voyage . The pardon of several Canadians , implicated in the insurrections of 1837—38 , haa created quite a sensation .
Six Chabxes MsrciiTE , the Governor-General of Canada , has been vMting the Eastern townships . He appears to have been warmly receiyed by the population . EiSTEBX FiSBKBJES . —A letter from Captain Stephens , the commander of one of our provincial revenue cruisers , published in the last Acadian Recorder , ^ ates that the seal ^ fishery out of M&r ^ aree , Caetacamp , and Sydney , has been very successful during the present season ; a fleet of fourteen sail from these ports having returned from ihe ice with about 10 , 000 ytgii « . The maekerel fishery in the spring proved remMiably unsuccessful , not more than 5 C 0 barrels having been l&ken ¦ where upwards of 23 . 000 barrels were obtained last year . The summer herring , it ib stated , have been pretty plenty about Teibay aad the coast outwards . from the cod fishery only a limited supply may be expected .
The Labrador fisheries promise vreD . The salmon fishery , in p&rtieal&r , has been very successful—optrards of 1 , 100 tierces having been already taken . The number of vessels that have passed through the ChsmW j Cwal , this season , up to the present date , amount to about ose hundred , and of these only two have proceeded direct to Kew York -without unloading at 1 st- John ' s . Saved timber and salt- form the bulk ef that * cargoes . TiiAS . —The steamer Sarah Barnes arrived at Jfew Orleans from Galveston on the -26 th , with Gal-TestoD dates to the 22 d nit .
The Commissioners on the part of Mpxico aid Texas , respectively , are to meet at Loredo some time during this month , and upon a satisfactory adjustment of the pointa there to be discussed being accomplished and ratified by the negotiating parties , Commissioners are to be appointed to settle all existing difficulties between the two countries , nnder the friendly mediation of Great Britain , France , and the United States . Colonels "WiUiams and Hockley are appointed Commissioners on the part of Texas . As a crawb&ck to this , however , Santa Anna has stated to Elliott that ** he will not entertain any proposition "having for its object the separation of Texas from Mexico . " Thi 3 we should suppose ¦ would be preposition No . l , on the part of Texas .
Captain Elliott has made a formal requisition m ihe name of hi 3 Government for the restoration of 3 , 000 , 000 acres of land , designated on the old maps as Cameron ' s and Beale ' s grant—a grant from the Mexican Government to these parties . The plea of Texas for resisting the claim is , that it wag made ¦ with the Mexican Government before the revolution , and that that government ia alone responsible for Its infringement . CoEmander Moore has been " dishonourably dismissed" from the Texan Navy . Texas is in : a very disorganized state . The Presidentj Houston , is staieo to be rery unpopular .
Mixico . —A friend at Mexico wites as follows : — ** "Wt are on the eve of the elections , and I will beforehand announce to you that Santa Anna must lose item , and he wID have another congress to dissolve . The Yucatan Commissioners are not likely to come to terms with Santa Anna . Disturbances of a 5 ~ orious nature for the Government are ; 1 think , to be feared in Tobasco / ' A new theatre is con-Btrneriag hi Mexico , to be called El Gran Teatro de Santa Anna . The papers contain full descriptions of tLT ^ magnificent edifice . It will be one of the larg ^ and most splendid in the world . It will contarn 2 3 ,-5 seats . Its ornaments , pillars , paintings , aau or-ei decorations , are to be of the most gorgeous character . There was no prospect of any immediate arnr-ement of the existing difficulties between Mexico and Yucatan .
Biases ATSES , -Thewar between Buenos Ayres ^ 1- ^ m f ^ f ^ ¥ the BaDda Oriental , of -wiich Monte Yideo is the capital , still continued , buJiTvas carried on sluggishly , as we infer from the feet that there had been very little fighting . A bullean was issued at Monte Yideo . June 20 anaoanciBgtfcat President Rivera had gained a victory over ine Buenos Ayrean division of Colonel Flores bnt the ( Buenos Ayrean ) British packet says the repor ; was without any good foundation . Mo . vtK Yidko . —The Monte Yideo Government was endeavouring to obtain a loan-of 500 , 000 dollars , on a pledge of the Custom House duties for 1844 . They had sold the Government House ior 80 , 000 dollars .
An affair had occurred at Monte Yideo be twee Mr . Garibaldi and the Brazilian Charge d ' ASaire which ihreawned the interruption of peaceful reli Sons between the two countries .

had been defeated by the Imperial troops , under ihe Baron de Caxia ^ . According to the packet , the insurgents had a great number of men taken prisoners , and lost npwards of 1 , 000 horses , all their sr littery , baggage , fcc Greece—We stated in our last that a revolution had eecorred in Greece ; press of Chartist aad other intelligence prevented us giving the details . We now lay them before our readers ; premising that they are somewhat abbrevated ; rendered necessary by the many demands on our space . All the leading features of this triumphant popular movement will be perused with interest . The revolution was begun on the night of the 14 th , and effected before noon next day . We tak « the narrative of the Greek
Observer" The hostile attitude assumed by the Government against those who sought to enlighten it , the extraordinary dispositions adopted ¦ within the last few days with a view to assail ( he liberty and the very lives of the dtizins { a military tribunal bad bees established most devoted to the national interests , should necessarily tend to hasten the manifestation of the contemplated movement . List sight at two o ' clock a . m ., a few musket shots fired in the ait announced the assembling of the people in the different quarters of Athens . Soon afterwards , the inhabitant * , accompanied by tbe entire garrison , marched towards the square of the Palace , crying , 'The Constitution for ever ! ' On reaching the place , the entire garrison , the artillery , cavalry , aud infantry , drew tip under the windows of the King , in frent of the Palace ; and the people having stationed
themselves in tbe rear , all in one voice demanded a constitutien . The King appeared at a low window , and assured the people that he would take into consideration their demand and that of the army , after consulting-with Mb ministers , the Council of State , and the representative * of the Foreign Powers . But the Commander , M . Calergi , having stepped forward , made knows to Ms Majesty that the Ministry tras do longer recognised ; and that tbe Council of State was already deliberating on the best course to be adopted undei existing circumstances . Shortly afterwards , a deputation from the Council of State presented an address to the King , comprising , amosg other things , tbe following requisitions , which it described as measures emanating from the wants and wishes distinctly expressed by the Greek
nation" ' Tour Majesty will consider it expedient to appoint a new Ministry withont delay . The Council of State recommend to the approbation of your Majesty , as persons competent bo form it , because ot their enjoying public esteem and confidence , Messrs . Andre iletaxa , for the Presidency of the Council of Ministers , with the Department of Foreign Affairs ; Andie Londos , for the Ministry of War ? Canaris , ior tbe Navy Department j RhigasPalamidis , for the Interior ; M&nsolas , for the Finance ; Leon Melas , for Justice ; and Michel Schimas , for Public Instruction and Ecclesiastical Affairs .
" 'Your Majesty will be pleased , at the same time , to sign an ordinance , which will impose on the new Ministry , as its first dnty , the convocation within the delay of a month of the National Assembly ; which willtleliber&te upon the definite Constitution that is to be established in concert with the Boyal authority , as the Sjis under which ths throne and the nation shall hereafter be placed . Tbe extraordinary circumstances ef the country rendering the convocation of the National Assembly as urgent necessity , and not admitting of a new law of election being previously framed , your Majesty will permit your Ministry to convoke that Assembly , agreeably to the spirit and provisions of ihe last law of election in vigour before 1833 with the sole difference that the electoral colleges shall elect their presidents by a majority of votes .
" The new Ministry , invested Vitb the full powers necessary to conduct the Government in accordance with the gravity of the circumstances which led to its formation , shall render an account of its acts to the National Assembly . ' " Whilst hia Majesty was reading the propositions of the Council of State , the representatives ef tbe Foreign Powers presented themselves at the Palace , and were told by the Commander that nobody cotzld be admitted at that moment , the King being In conference with the deputation of the Council of State . Tbe latter came out two hours afterwards , with the consent of the King . The new Ministry then repaired to the Palace , where they held a long consultation with his Majesty ; who
shortly appeared on the balcony , surrounded by his Ministers and other personages , and was received with acclamation by the people . The cry of " Long live the Constitutional King ! " resounded , together with that of Tfe » Constitution for ever V The new Ministers entered immediately on the discharge of their functions . The military revolution was directed , on the part of the regular army , by the Colonel of Cavalry , Demetri Cv lergi , and on that of tbe irregular army by Colonel Maeryany . At three o ' clock in the afternoon , the garxison , after defiling before the Palace , re-entered their quarters , preceded by their bands , amidst tbe acclamations of the people . An hour afterwards , the city , in which order had net bees an instant disturbed , resumed its customary aspect . "
Next day tbe King issued a decree convoking a National Assembly within thirty days . The Council of State issued a decree , thanking the people and the army , exhorting them to continued order , and dictating to the army an oath of "fidelity to the country and to the constitutional throne , " and of attachment to tbe constitution to ba settled by the Assembly . The Council also decreed that the 15 th September should in future be a national festival . Similar movements took place at Chaleis and Ifauplia .
Letters from Athens , of the 17 th ult , say that all foreigners who held offices under Government were to be dismissed , with an exception in favour of the veteran Philhellenes . It is said that the King yielded with bad grace , when he found resistance on his part would be unavailing . It was eleven o'clock a . m . before his obstinacy was subdued . The military bandB were then playing tbe ** Marseillaise " and the Pariaenne "; which gave him cause to suppose that affairs might proceed to unpleasant extremeties . On tbe 16 th King Otho took his customary airing ; and was sdated as he passed along the streetB , with cries from the people and soldiers of Long live the Constitutional King 1 "
Intelligence from Athens , of the 17 ih instant , adds nothing of news to tho account of the recent revolution , bat gives some interesting traits of its most extraordinery moderation . Tzinos , a minister , who had ordered the infliction of torture on several occasions , was hidden for a time in the King ' s palace : he w& 3 forced out ; but his only punishment was to be banished , and to be guarded by the troops of the new regime from the fury of the mob . Ylahopulo , the old Minister of War , indiscreetly presented himself , and ordered the troops to withdraw : Calergi merely said , Take the Bavarian away , and shut him up 1 " and he was put nnder a guard in his own house .
Hsjut . —Letters from Erivan announce the important fact of the death of the King of Herat , Kamram Schah , whose throne has been usurped by his Tizier , Tar Mahomed Khan , who has expelled the sons of tbe late King . The usurper has been acknowledged as King of Herat by the Schah of Persia to whom ha sent his submission . Exthaobdisabt . —The Eeroldo of Madrid of the 21 st says—** Yesterday a woman died at St . Andre at the age of thirty-three , after having given birth to five boys , who all died shor tly afterwards . '
RcssiAS Ttexeqtt . —The Commerce gives the following to show the rigour with which the police of Poland is condncted : — " A foreign merchant arrived at the frontier with post-horses . His passport stated that he was to travel with his own . From this circumstance alone he was taken into custody , and seat as a prisoner to Warsaw , and i t was not without the greatest difficulty , and through the mediation of many influential friends , that he obtained his liberty . " B . ELG 1 AS Railway . —The Belgian and Rhemish Railway will be opened on the Mthinefc Rome- —The two bandits who , about three yean ago , attached and robbed Don Miguel while he was out shooting , were executed at Rome on the 12 th inst ., having been condemned for various robberies and mnrders .
[ If all "robbers" and "murderers" were treated in the same way , Don Miguel would have been " executed" long since J Mttbdebs in Pakib . —Amongst the malefactors who have been lately arrested on a charge of street robberies in Paris , attended with violence , is a man named Teppaz , who at first gave Important information ; bnt it was at the same time evident that he concealed a great part of the truth . On Friday , after having been permitted to receive a visit from his mother , he demanded to be brought before the chief of the police of safety , to whom he said" I know that I am about to commit myself beyond a possibility of escape ; but I promised my mother to te ll all , and 1 shall keep my word . I have committed many robberies , and assisted at many atrocious deeds ; but there is one act the recollection of which haunts me sight and day .
" In 1836 I was enreUed amongst a band of assassins by a man named Poildeyache . When I showed any hesitation to commit violence , my companions kicked and beat me to give me courage , as they said . One evening that X was watching near the canal of Martin , is company with two others , a man of about thirty-six years of age passed by . One ef the band , Rampailleux , having judged by his dress that he bad money , seized him by the throat and threw him to the ground . Poildevaebe then ran forward and Boxed the legs of the victim , whilst I , by order of the otheri , searched hia pockets .

The police have since arrested another of this hideous band , a man named Piednol , twenty-nine yeara of age , ten of whiob he passed at the gallies . On Saturday ^ ays the National , appeared before the Court of Assize of the Seine Henry Salmon , twenty-one years of age , born at Joigny , and accused of murder bommitted on the person of John Sdohepine , in the wood of Vincennes . Henry Salmon confessed his crime . His sole defence may be summed up in these words : — "I wished to possess his papers , aud I lost my head . " Having been found guilty , he was condemned to death . He heard his sentence without betraying the slightest emotion .
Belgium . —Hohbibls Mubder . —An inhabitant of Lommel , in Belgium , suspecting that bis wife had misconducted herself with an officer of the customs , a few evenings ago , reproached her with her infidelity . A violent quarrel ensued , and the woman became bo exasperated that she went to the room of the custom-house officer , who lived in the same house , and , taking a pair of loaded pistols from his table , returned with them , and discharged one of them at her husband . Having wounded , but not killed him , she del iberately fired the other into hiB breast , and completed her object . The reports brought several persons to the spot , and she was at once secured and committed to prison . The next morning , she attempted to destroy herself with the sharp edge of the cover of a pot , in which some coffee had been brought her . She made a
severe and ragged wound in the throat , but did not accomplish her purpose . The custom-house officer was not at home at the time of the murder , but has nevertheless been arrested , and committed to prison . Cologne . —The Wat io core Duelling . —Lieut . Pelzer , who lately , in consequence of a dispute at a ball , fought a duel with M . Hain , a bookseller , and shot him , waB sentenced by a court-martial to be beheaded . The King has commuted this sentence to fifteen years' imprisonment in a fortress . Lieutenant Pelzer has accordingly been conveyed to-day to the fortress of Ehrenbreiteteiu , as well as the two seconds , who are condemned to ten year ., ' imprisonment . The other two persons implicated in the duel are said to be sentenced to five and two yeara ' imprisonment . No doubt is entertained that the imprisonment of the twe seconds at least will be considerably abridged .
Hakbuhgh , Sept . 28 . —The brandy distillery of M . Sohot , on the Green-dike , was destroyed by firo last night . Fbakck—La Reforms states that five of the persons arrested as participators in the the Communist plot of the Rue Pastourelle had been set at liberty . Other warrants however had been issued by the Attorney-General , but the charges against the accused were not of a very serious nature . M . Henri Dourille , a literary man , lately arrested as an accomplice of theirs , does not , It appears , belong to that portion of the Radical party . He always
strongjy condemned the principles of the Communists . Jaras-e , a political convict , attempted to commit suicide by swallowing varnish used by carpenters . Boudin , who was condemned in tbe affair of the RepuMicdn Monitor , had become insane . [ Such is the treatment given by the infamous son of tho infamous Egalite , to the men who blindly raised him to a throne , on the strength of the pledge that that throne should be surrounded with Republican institutions . " One patriot swallowing poison and another driven mad ! Such aro the ** legitimate" fruits of middle-class treachery . How long—How long !}
Pabis . —Murder and Suicide . —M . Pamel , a performer at the Opera Comique , having lately lost his voice , aud consulted several physicians without deriving any benefit , the calamity so preyed upon his mind , fearing that he would lose altogether the means of supporting hta wife aud four children , that in a fit of delirium he mortally stabbed his eon , ten years of age , stabbed another boy in the loins , wounded his wife dangerously ; and finally , the police coming to arrest him , he escaped into another room and there plunged the poignard into his own heart up to the hilt , and expired immediately ,
The Wi * e of Gaudet . —Madame Gaudet , the widow of the celebrated Girondin , lately died , at a very advanced age , at St . Emilion , in the department of the Gironde . Another distinguished female , Madame Sirey , niece of Mirabeau , wife of the wellknown juris-consult of that name , and mother of the unfortunate young man who met last year so deplorable a fate at Brussels , died at St . Germam-en-Laye , on Thursday . Serious Accident at Marseilles . —A Russian
vessel having appeared a few days ago in sight at Marseilles , a number of persons assembled on a drawbridge communicating with the mole , and commanding a view of the Bea . The weight of such a crowd , amounting at least to 150 persons , proved too much for the timber work , and the bridge gave way , bearing with it the living mass into the water , and on the quay below . Strange to say , however , this terrible event , which would seem likely to cause a great loss of life , passed over with only five fractures and about a dozen contusions .

Indications are visible that the "far North" is about to prove as troublesome to " the powers that be" as Wales and Ireland have been for some time past . The Non-Intrnsionists have left the "kirk ;" and if there their hostility to the existing order of things had stopped , government would have cared very little for the change ; inasmuch as there are not wanting plenty of " waiters on Providence " ready to clutch at the " loaves and fishes , " abandoned by Chalmers , Candlish , and Co . But ( as in the u sister kingdom ") the violont orations of the chiefB of the Nou-lntrusion movement , have not been without their effect . When Maogill Crichton , the noted Don Quixote of the movement , talked about "unfurling the broad blue banner of the Covenant f " unsheathing the claymore : " and
taking themselves to the " hiU-Bides there to emulate their martyred sires who died for the faith ;" people—at any rate the simple working people of the far north—thought all this was in earnest ; and that the worthy knight-errant meant what he said . Accordingly we find the flocks of the seoeders disposed to take a step beyond that of their shepherds : not only have they left the kirk themselves , but they seem determined to allow no one else to enter it . Thus in different parts of the North where the heritors have attempted to "settle" new ministers in the vacated churches , they have been met with open physical resistance . And no little damage has already been suffered by lords and ladies , sheriffd and procurator-fiscals , ministers and elders , in their attempt to"Bettle" ministers in parishes , to which ministers the people were opposed . Here is the latest " pronunciamento" of the Highlands : —
"NON- INTRUSION RlOT AT ReSOLIS , NEAR CROmatry . —Thursday being the day appointed for the settlement of the Rev . Lewis Rose , presentee to the parish of Resolis , vacant by the secession of the Rev . D . Sage , the rev . members of Presbytery , Colonel Hugh Bailie , M . P ., of Redcastle , and Lord-Lieutenant of the county , Sheriff Jardine , and other gentlemen , accompanied by ladies , set out from the residence of Sir Hugh Frazer , G . C . B ., at BraelangwelL in vehicles ; but on arriving within a short distance of the church , they found that the church , which occupies a rising ground , was surrounded by a numerous party of males and females , for the most part under mature age , and that a few minutes previously , on perceiving the approach of Mr . H . T .
Cameron , procurator fiscal of the district , and a sheriff's officer , they had at once forbade their approach to the church , by greeting them with a volley of stones , although Mr . . Cameron is a celebrated Don-intrusionift himself . The lord-lieutenant , Colonel H . Baillie , M . P ., and the sheriff , and Sir H . Fraser , being present , it urns hoped that respect would be paid to them by the riotous party surrounding the church ; accordingly , leaving the ladies in the carriages , the members of Presbytery were accompanied towards the church by the above , among other gentlemen , and parties amounting to 100 . They , were not , however , permitted to proceed , for on coming within reach , vollies of stones were hurled at them in such a manner as to oblige them
to retreat . Matters having now assumed a most alarming appearance , an officer and three or four revenue-cuttermen , who were in the neighbourhood , were hastily brought up , armed merely with their cutlasses and pistols . One double-barrelled gun and a few pistols were all the arms that could be distributed in addition among the maintainers of the law ; others being obliged to provide themselves with sticks . Having formed is as good order as possible , with the four cuttermen in fmnt , tbe Presbytery and escort , preceded by the sheriff , again advanced towards the church , and were received , when within reach , by volleys of stones . The sheriff then read the Riot Act ; but , before concluding it , would have been bronght to the ground by a stone , which he only avoided by bobbing his head . One womaD , more bold than the rest , advanced so sear that Mr .
Cameron , the Procurator FiBcal , seized her ; she resisted ; however , so vigourously that it was not until they had both fallen and rolled upon the earth that she was secured , placed in a gig , and driven off to Cromariy gaol by a messenger at arms . Scarcely a person had sot been struck by Btones before the order was given to fire upon iht rioters . One man was apparently wounded in the leg , but , being on an elevation , the pistol , although loaded with ball , did not do mnch apparent damage , and , n » t possessing further ammunition , the revenue officer ordered the parts to charge with their cutlasses and with sticks . At this juncture , and while leading his men on , be was knocked down , and it is said had a rib fractured by a blow from a stone , and , unfortunately , about the same instant , he received a severe wound on the back of the neck from a missile , which covered hfm with blood . The force being clearly insufficient for effecting an entrance into the church , under auoa

circumstances , and especially as it was assorCea that there was a large party lying in wait in the wo , od above tbe church , the Presbytery were deforced , and retired to effect the settlement in a private house . In the evening the sheriff ' s officer whishad conveyed the female to prison was waylaid ^ seriously maltreated , arid his vehicle destroyed . A mob also surrounded the gaol atCromarty the greater part of the night , and an attempt to rescue was anticipated by the authorities . Under these circumstances , and as similar outrages are expected at Knochbain , and other places where ministers hate to be settled , it is said the Lord Lieutenant of the county has applied to Sir Nevil Douglas , the Commander of the North British Forces , for troops , there being only a handful of men for garrison duty df Fert George . "
A precious sight this ; the reverend members of the presbytery , skulking behind " revenue officers , " and trying to smuggle : their eonttaband wares into the kirk under the legal protection of " pistols" and " bludgeons . " And then the valorous Mr . Cameron with his triumphant capture of one woman , after she had well-rolled him in the mud ! Why , Lochiel ia fairly put to shame by this valorous exploit of his namesake ! But " waitawee" ! Since the above was written we have received the following account of more " routs , riots , and tumults" in the "far North " : —
"Further Rioting in East Ross- * thb Minister of Logie Deforced , &o . —It is with no small mortification and pain we bave to record a recital of additional disturbances in the eastern part of this county . The Rev . Mr . Mackenzie having been inducted by the presbytery at Dingwall , prooeeded to preach at Logie on Sunday last ; but found avast collection of people congregated at the ohuroh , in the utmost state of excitement . The entrance waa barricaded , and a lawless , desperate mob hovered round it , resolved to prevent any person whatever from going into the church . Lady Ross , Balnarowu , drove up to the church , and was assailed with the most virulent Billingsgate . Not only so , but a woman actually struok at her ladyship with a sticks . and she received a blow in the arm . Lady
Ross then withdrew , amidst a shower of stonea and blackguard abure . Shortly after this , Mr- Ross , of Cromarty , accompanied by his son , Mr . George Ross , arrived at the church . Access was denied them , and the most Bcandalous and impious language uttered . The church bell waa tolling , and the noise and clamour of the crowd was at that pitch so as to threaten the most awful consequences . Mr . Ross repaired to Tain for Mr . Sheriff Cameron , who accompanied him to Logie . The Rev . Mr . Mackenzie had by this time gone away ; but as there was still a large crowd at the church , the sheriff used the utmost' exertion to restore quiet . Wo understand that some of the people said , if a site were given to them for a ohuroh they would desist from further annoyance . The crowd shortly afterwards disappeared , without further violence .
" At Rossken , on Sunday , a mob collected , in the expectation that the Rev . Mr . Mackenzie was to preach , and of course prepared to obstruct his entrance . Having been made acquainted with the actual state of matters , Mr . Mackenzie did not appear ; and having collected , the mob could not but perpetrate some mischief . The precentor of the parish church , Donald Fraser , having been recognized , was immediately assailed , and the mob would have torn him to pieces , had it not been for the interposition of Lieutenant Mac ' eod , who , having been on that part of the grounds near the church , checked the rabble that pursued Mr . Fraser , aud in a manner rescued him from their violence .
" On Tuesday morning , four officers arrived at Invergordon , from Tain , with warrants for apprehending two individuals connected with the riots . On this being known , the bell was put through the town , and an immense crowd immediately collected , who rescued the prisoners and ordered the officers to go home , under the penalty of being stoned to death . The men took the hint , and their prisoners are still at large . During all Tuesday crowds surrounded tbe church of Rosskeen , the people ignorantly expecting that the Presbytery would appear that day , to go through again with the settlement of Mr . Mackenzie . "—Ross shire Advertiser .
Se . so ; the " moral and religioua" people of Scotland are now a " lawless and desperate mob , "—vomiting "Billingsgate , " "blackguard abuse , " " soandaloua and impious language , " &c , &o . Such are the libels heaped upon the noble peasantry of the Highlands , by miserable , lying , quill-drivers . The people are termed " mob" and " rabble" too , because the patrons of this lickspittle thingt the Ross'ihire Advertiser think proper to trample upon the conscientious feelings of the people , and the latter think proper to shew resistance . Verily the newspaper press is almost universally tbe very sink of iniquity . Mark too what the people want : " if a site were given them for a church they would desist from further annoyance . " Now wa have not much fellow-feeling with the " big guns" of the Non-Intrusion movement ; for wo can understand their motives , and therefore despise them . Bat we do sympath / zd with the people , —the conscientious honest people ; and
they having left the "kirk of their fathers" because they could no longer conscientiously worship therein ; what more reasonable than that at their own cost they RhfmlH soak to build churches elsewhere I Bnt no , this must not be ; the "lords of the soil" say the land is ours , and we will " do what we like with our own , " and acting in this spirit they have refused tO ) let or sell a t , olitary foot of ground on which the people might assemble for religious worship I This is not all . The Scottish aristocracy in general , and the ; Duke of Sutherland in particular , has been guilty of most gross tyranny towards the seoeders . Is there any wonder then , that the people should exhibit the spirit they are now shewing ? We see by the Aberdeen Herald that two hundred troops have been ordered to Ross shire , and \ oere on their march there the latter end last week ! If Donald ' s blood is once fairly roused , there will be work for them .

SOUTH WALES . { from our own Correspondent . J So , bo ; " the truth always tells the best / " for our Welsh newspapers , which were so lately lost in admiration of the gallantry displayed by our rural police , have at length made the discovery that tbe conduct of that force haa neither been of such a laudable or praiseworthy nature as tbey had led their readers to suppose . Even tbe Swansea Journal , that most contemptible of all puerile publications , has now , at tbe eleventh hour , communicated the astounding fact , that tbe gallant Captain Napier , hiB four fall-privates , two sergeants , one inspector , aye and even tbe magistrates who accompanied them , have a reasonable chance of figuring
where better men have stood before them , and obtaining the unenviable title of "the prisoners at the bar . " True the editor Or reporter in noticing the circumstance gives it as Mr . — and Mr . ; but we all know who accompanied the police on their memorable excursion to Pontarddulais ; and this paltry effart at concealment Is of a par with the cringing cowardice which that newspaper has ever shewn , when the conduct of " the authorities" was under review . However , every man who took part in tbe attack on the rioters , on the above occasion , is , according to these authorities , to be bronght to trial on the charge of not having proceeded according to " the statute in that case made and provided . ; " and if so brought to trial , there is little doubt that a jury of Welshmen , wilt do them ample justice .
Agreeably to the promise contained in my last , I attended a public meeting on Wednesday , which was announced as a meeting of the inhabitants of five parishes , with most unpronounceable names , and to be held on tbe AH-Cyn-Adda mountain . The place of meeting was about seven miles from Carmarthen , and in the immediate -vicinity of the burgh of Kidwelly . The hour was fixed for eleven o ' clock , but it was nearly twelve before tbe business commenced . On the ground there could not be less than a thousand persons , generally of the class of small farmers , with here and there
a sprinkling of the " higher orders of soslety . " It was bitter cold upon the mountain top ; but notwithstanding both wind and rain , the great balk of the meeting remained firm to the conclusion , although the proceedings occupied nearly six hours . A whole brigade of reporters were present representing the four local papers , the London Times , Chronicle , Herald ; and last , though not leaBt , your bumble servant of the Northern Star . Every accommodation was afforded to the scribes , but the . labours of most of as , excepting one or two who could hieroglyphic the Welsh , terminated on the conclusion of Mr . Williams' address .
On the motion of Mr . Williams , Philip Howell , Esq ., mayor of Kid well , was called to the chair . Hugh Williams rose and said—Gentlemen , amid the grievances -which we long have suffered , it is a source of some satisfaction te see such a respectable assembly gathered together , in order to make these sufferings known , ia the hope that some means of redress may be applied . We have already had large meetings to lay our grievances at the foot of the Throne , the first of which was held on Mynedd Seles , and the next on Mynydd Mawr . The first of these was a glorious display ; but the scenes of outrage which were daily occurring , threw a damp over the second . Yet still the people mustered in their thousands , determined to make their Bufferings and their grievances known . I then had the honour of submitting certain resolutions to these meetings , which I am happy te say were
adopted ; and subsequently we hel d a meeting at Trelearcb , in order that our common grievances might be generally submitted to our common country . The meeting at Trelearch vu burked in consequence of imperfeot notice having been given , and a slight attendance only took place ; b * t although few were present , yet I baye no hesitation In Myhig that they represented the feelings of the great body of the community , as we were unanimous in our views , unanimous in our sentiments , being truly actuated only by one mind , and Laving only one object in view , the alleviation of tbe condition of our fellow men . This agitation bai engaged the attention of all Bngland ; reporters are present both from London and the provinces , who will disseminate the : sentiments which Bhall this day be delivered all over the countrynay , all over tbe civilised world . I gladl y bear testimony to the serrloe which bag been done to us by that

mighty engine , I the presa ; and we have all reason to be grateful to the press far advocating the cause of the poor Welsh . It has been objected to these petitions to our Queen that they are too long ; but a long list of grievances requite a lengthy petition ; and my own opinion is , that : they are rather too short Tb % flrst subject which it notices is tbe tolls ; and I mafiake some credit to my « e ) f for , being the first who called public attention to the crying grievance of turnpike tolls . ' This is a little work which I Issued from the press so far back as 1839 . You all know our national
anthem , " God ; save the King , " which , to suit the altered circumstances of the country , was transmogrified into "God save the Queen ; " but I then considered , as I do now , that the rhapsody and rant therein contained are a disgrace to a people who claim to be free ; and the sentiments of revenge which are there inculcated cannot consistently be entertained , by any individual having the slightest claim to Christianity . In the little work I have just alluded to , I introduced a piece which I considered to be free frem these objections , which I entitled " God save our native land !" I shall sow read the first stauzi in that poem : —
" God save our native land f Vouchsafe thy fost'ring hand ! ! God save tbe land—From tyrants , tolls , bastiles , Barracks , and cat-nine-talls , Game laws , excise , and jailsj God save the land !" In the notes appended to that stanza , on the subjects of tolls and bastiles , I have said : — " Tolls . —There ia no country where legal plunder , in the shape of tolls , prevails to so great an extent as in England and Wales . Tbe several corporation , port ,
ferry , fair , market , and town tolls , are grinding and monopolizing enough ; but those collected at turnpikegates , or common-road-plunder-bars , are still more grievous . All tolls impede traffic and intercourse ; and , beside their Impolicy , are a clumsy and corrupt species of taxation . Highways should be under one general and responsible direction , possessed of talent and scientific skill . The [ amount of our turnpike-road tolls might be made alone to defray the cost of a moderate government ; as it is , bnt a small portion is applied to the actual improvement of the toads , while tbe greater part disappears into a variety of dark channels—in peculations , jobs ] and patronage . "
" Bastiles .-4 Thi 8 is the only country in the world where the reduced middle classes , and all the producers , composing the great majority of the national voice , are reduced to worse ; than savage life ; where they have no prospect is poverty and old age , but imprisonment in union workhouses , there to be treated an impostors or criminals ; separated from their wives and children , and subjected to tbe caprice of a host of officials , living on the poor rates in ease and luxury : thus steeped in poverty to the very lips , to have their best feelings outraged , and their most sacred engagements h « ld in scorn . " Such , continued the speaker , were my views in 1839 , and such they continue unchanged to the present day ; and lam glad that the recent destruction of the turnpike-gates , though unlawful and indefensible acts , have yet succeeded in ] drawing the attention of tbe press of England to the subject ; and this grievance is rapidly disappearing . I ; contend , moreover , that the New Poox Law is thoroughly inapplicable to the rural districts , as
farmers cannot devote a sufficient length of time to the investigation of the complicated accounts of that board . For my own part ; , I have no hesitation in saying that I , a professional man , who , from habit and experience might be supposed to be better qualified to sift and examine accounts than you who devote your lives to agricultural pursuits ; yet these fellows have become so expert in cloaking over the inaccuracy and incorrectness of their books , notwithstanding that jugglery and insidious jobbing , are as conspicuous a * tbe sun at noon day , yet were an' angel from heaven to testify to the fact , the determined vagabonds would a wear him out of it The speaker next adverted to the various other points mooted in the memorial , which embraced the better regulation of county stock and legal fees , fixity of tenure , and assessment of rents ; each of which topics were dwelt upon at considerable length , and were listened to ] throughout with the greatest attention , i
A number of other speakers followed , who addressed tbe meeting in the Welsh language , all of whom were enthusiastically cheered , and the speechifying continued until five o ' clock in the evening , when the meeting broke up and the Alt-cyn-Adda mountain was left alone in solitary grandeur . Rumours are rife that South Wales is to be placed under martial law !; but if we get more " martial" than we are , Heaven only knows where our " martial" course will end . Every town and Tillage ia swarming with treops ; the very apple-wives have their stalls capsized , and their wares scattered alo » g the street , by charging troops of cavalry : scarcely half an hour elapsea but bugles or trumpets are ringing forth their " cdls "
through our streets ; and many of our magistrates have their mansions garrisoned by soldiers , in order to protect their worshipful persons from harm . We also hear many stories of "drillings" of Rebeceaites among the hills ; but whether these stories are true or false , they have raised no small alarm in the minds of many . But , be this as it may , Rebecca has been quieter this week than usual . Some , who fancy that they possess correct means of information , tell us that the present lull is occasioned by the anxiety of certain parties to get their friends admitted to bail ; and if their present endearuuia iu ttrat matter btd unsuccessful , the calm will be but the prelude of a coming storm—a storm to which all that is past will be but as the gentlest whisperings of the infant breeze . 1
She has , however , been having a " lark" or two with the myrmidons of the lav ; one bailiff , who was in possession under a warrant for distress , having resevved aome not very tender remonstrances from the whips of her daughters ; and another having obtained a , lodgment in the farmer ' s horse-pond . There is now no possibility of executing distress-warrants in the country ; and to * lawyers are getting toughed at whenever they attempt it . An attorney in Carmarthen had been trying this method of "raising tbe wind ; " and he was accordingly waited upon by the party against whom he hod commenced proceedings . The farmer told him that he could ' nt pay ; and the attorney replied ' that he
muse distrain , as his injunctions were imperative . The farmer rejoined , that if such steps wen adopted , be must apply to his old mother for aid . " n you and your old mother , " said the lawyer ; " you must remember that you are is Carmarthen now ; and if you begin to talk about your old mother here , we shall clap you into the big house at the end of the bridge . " " Well , well , " responds the farmer , " if you have a big house in town , my old mother has a big house in tbe country ; and if you clap me up here , she'll clap you up there , the very first time you shew your nose among tbe hills . " Se saying , he tore the summons to pieces , and coolly walked out of the office . He has heard no more of bis law-Buit . i
The spy-system ] is carried on to a great extent One person , representing himself as a clergyman from Manchester , took lodgings at a respectable inn . He had remained there for some days , and was very particular in his inquiries about 'Becca . But as this is the common , topic of conversation , tbese enquiries excited no ' suspicion . Circumstances , however , arose which called particular attention to this gentleman ' s motives ; and an open letter having been accidentally left by him on the dressing table , afforded a clue to his real character , although it was written in cypher ; but as Capt . Scott ' s name and ) Capt Napier ' s were often repeated , tbe " peepers" were at no vary great loss to judge of his clerical profession ; and the pump being conveniently located in the Btable-yatd , a plentiful dose of the " cold water cure" was i administered to him on his return , when he was advised to shift his quarters .
The trustees haying resolved tore erect ihe Minkagate , preparations -were accordingly made . But "Becca resolved to spare them the unnecessary trouble ; and accordingly assembled her forces on Saturday laat . At her former visit she had spared the gate posts , they being of iron , and possibly too hard for her to digest ; but on ¦ that night sba shivered them to pieces , and broke up all the materials which had been laid down to build the tollhouse , resolved that tolls should no longer be levied tbere . j Some time ago the gate at Pen-y-Garn was broken down and a farmer named Davies was apprehended on
suspicion . Evidence was heard against him and be waa fully committed for trial . Bail to any amount was tendered and refused . They also refused to hear any testimony in the prisoner ' s behalf , stating that they had heard plenty to warrant a committal . The prisoner ' s council applied to the Queen ' s Benoh for a rule nisi ; which was granted . When they found the turn affairs were taking , they ) wrote to Mr . Maule , solicitor to the Treasury , enclosing him a copy of the depositions . He wrote back sayiDg they had no ground for committing him at all . After , hearing this , the parties who refused bail to tho amount of £ 3 , 000 , accepted the same in £ i 0 O-Such is Welsh justice .
Victoria versus Rebecca . —Proclamation . — By the Queen . —A'Proclamation was agreed to , at the meeting of the Privy Council , held by her Majesty at Windsor Castle , on Monday last , strongly reprobating the " tumultuous assemblages" id the " counties of Pembroke , Cardigan , and Carmarthen " , and calling on all "justices of the peace , sheriffs , undersheriffa , and all ] other civil officers ; " to repress all euoh " tumults , riots , outrages , and breaches of the peace ' : and offering a reward of Five Hundred Pounds , to any ) person who Bhall " discover and apprehend , or cause to be discovered and apprehended , all persons guilty of incendiarism , or outrages against life : and Fifty Pounds for the apprehension of all other offenders !

Leedh Woollen Mabketts , Tuesday , Ocr . 3 . — The continuance of improved trade in other districts is operating most favourably here , the demand f £ manufactured goods increasing nearly every market day . For some months trade has been gradually , but slowly improving . Bradford Markets , Thursday , Oct . 5 , —Wool Yarns—There is a good supply of all kinds of Wool , which causes the consumers to be less disposed to-extend their operations , and daring the week hardly an
average business has been done . In prices we do not hear of any alteration . Yarns— -The buyers for both export and home consumption are still free to purchase , and lite prices still maintained .. Piece—The demand for Goods continues very steady , and tbe fine weather cheers the prospect of the home-trade houses ; this , with the favourable accounts from America , tends to confirm the opinion , that Good 3 have seen their lowest point ; and that ere long the Manufacturer may expect to be better employed and remunerated .
WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET . Feidat , Oct . 6 »— There is a large supply of Wheat to this day ' s market , and a good attendance of buyers . The millers purchase with great caution , and even at a reduction of 23 . per quarter , take only for their immediate wants ; Barley sells slowly , at last week ' s prices , but the supply is nofc larger than the demand . Oats and Shelling continue to meet a dull sale , and rather decline in value . Beans mast also be noted at little lower .
