Vyiee— That ' s very , rery bad treatment , indeed . " ) These circumstances wer the temporary . defeat of Ireland ' s Liberator , and he did so-to make a demonstration in his favour , and shew his political opponents that O'Connell was still dear to the people of Ireland . ( Shouts . ) They knew it was the only recompense they could make him for his defeat —they all knew that it was unnecessary for him to pass » panegyric or euloginm upon him , and he would therefore conclude , by saying , that though it was one of the greatest honours to which he could aspire , the representing of his native county in Parliament , bo it was the greatest compliment that could be paid him to request him to retire in favour of Mr . O'Conneli . ( Here his etea again filled with tears , and
his utterance became choked , strongly evidencing that the unfortunate gentleman was forced to speak against his feelings . ) He should conclude by proposing Daniel O'Connell , Esq ., as a fit—( here he had again to pause while straggling with his feelings )—and proper person to represent this great county in Parliament . ( Great yelling- ) Mr . Beamish , ex-Member for the city , rose and was met with great apro&r . He called upon them for a moment's attention . ( Yelling . ) He was called upon , by the electors © f the county of Cork—' a , voice , How many !">— to second the nomination of
Ireland ' s Liberator . ( Yells . ) He looked upon the present juncture of affairs as all important , and as ealling upon them to have as a representative for the largest county in Ireland him whom a temporary defeat alone—the decision of an adverse aSfceseor , but which a Committee of the House of Commons would settle , as it had settled the non-resident freemen in this city , would rectify . Daniel O'Connell now came forward , in-rited by the county of Cork , and he ( Mr . B . ) was p ^ ond he came forward to solicit their suffrage ? , for whom a man had given way that bad faithfully and diligently executed hiB duties as their Member since 1232 . He seconded the nomination .
Mr . Roche was th « n nominated by Mr . Clanoey , of Charleville , and seconded by Mr . J . E . M'Carthy of Raddone . Col . Hodder , of Hodderafield , amidst the most determined interruption from the O'Connellites , proposed Mr . M . P . Loader , whose nomination was seconded in a proper Tory speech , delivered through a perfect storm of yelline , hooting , and interruption by Mr . Conner of Man eh House . Mr . * T . G . French of Merino , proposed Robert Longfield , Esq ., barrister-at-law . ill . Samtfel WaHis Adams , of Rilbre , amidst the greatest uprcrvr , seconded the nomination of Mr . Longfield . Mr . Richard Victor Roche , of Killuntin , proposed Mr . John Keleher as a fit and proper person to represent them in Parliament Mr . John O'Hea , of Clon&kUty , begged leave to second the nomination .
The High Sheriff having inquired if any other elector had a candidate to propose , &nd no one appearing , Mr . E . B Roche addressed the meeting at great length : and Messrs . Leader and Long field attempted to do so , out were received with hideous yells , groans , and all manner of unearthly noises , so as to render them all but inaudible . Mr . Kclther was prevented from addressing the meeting , being threatened with a share of the expencea attendant upon the election if lie did so .

MERTHYK TYDVlL ELECTION . Tuesday last having been appointed for the nnmination of a fit and proper person to serve the office of a burgess in the utw Parliament , the town was all aiive at an early hour . Sir J . J . Guest , the ex-member and Whig candidate , was proposed and seconded by Messrs . Crawshay and James . Mr . Argust then proposed Mr . Morgan Williams as a candidate ( tremendous cheering and stamping of feet and indeed more than OKce it was expected that t ' na frail tenement in which they were assembled would come down to the gronnd . ) Mr . Henry Thomas seconded the nomination .
The Returning Officer then put it to a show of hands' ; but he declared that he could not undertake to decide which party had it . A second show of hands was then taken , aad the Returning Officer declared it to be in favour of Mr . Morgan Williams . ( Tremendous cheering . ) Mr . David Jame 3 then demanded a poll , which the returning officer appointed to take place next day at eight in the morning , to close at four in ihe afternoon . Some converration then took phce , and the rfturnng officer sojourned the court to a field , in which hustings Lad been erected . No sooner had the hustings been taken possession of by the parties than the field was filled with people . ¦ The meeting was a ^ dsessed briefly by Messrs . Gnest and Crawshav .
Mr . Morgan Williams then came forward , au < l addressed the assembly at great length , first in Englifb and then in Wel ? h . He 5 aid that at a former election he had supported in the strongest manner Sir J . Gacst , while he was opposed by that very Mr . Oawehay who now supported him ; but he ( Mr . W . ) now opposed him because he saw that he was not what he had professed to be—the Friend of the people . He was the supporter of a Government whieh had not offered them any of those so called blessings which they now held o ^ t , until the eleventh hotfr , when they saw that they were about to lose their places , and were prepared even to go the length of doing what one of th « ir own associates . Lord Melbourne , called aa act of
madness , throw thts country on foreign nations fer the m&au 3 of getting its daily brea J , so that if we were to quarrel with them we must be starved for want of that bread which we had forced our own farmers to give over growing for want of a market . A great boast had been made about their intention of giving cheap bread to the working man , but what did cheap bread mean ! Why , cheap bread mean 3 cheap labour ; tbat was to ? ay , tbat they would first reduce the price of bread by admitting the corn of the foreigner at a low duty , and then they would lower the wages of the workmen to meet the lowered price of corn , for every one knew that the price of labour was regulated by the price of corn . Now , with respect to this very measure of a fixed duty of 8- ., Sir J . Guest said he was willing to give his full suj > -
pon to the Government , and consequently Wa 3 in favour of an 8 == . duty , vrhile his proposer ( Mr . Crawshay ) wa 3 for nothing 1 (* 33 than anabsolutefree trade . There was consistency ! As to free trade , that was all a fallacy , if intended as a benefit . He would tell ihem what free trade was . The French made glove * , which could be sold in London at a cheaper rate than the Eaglish conld do it , and the consequence was that the English glovers were starving , while the French were well employed . To be unre , instead of giving teem the means of maintaining themselves by honest labour , they offered them the mercies of the New Poor Law , and the starvation Union workhouses . ( Loud groans . ) The Government , instead of diminishing the tax-.-s that grouad the poor workman to the dust , actually increased them , and were now going to levy a tax on bread , that they might have money to cover a deficiency
in the revenue , caused by their own bad conduct and incapacity . He frequently referred t < i a paper which he held in his hand , in support of his propositions , and he was loudly cheered throughout his address . In the middle of his speech , however , the crowd was seized with a panic , occasioned , as it was supposed , by seme one throwing a Elone , which it was feared would l « ad to a serious disturbance . However , all passed off quietly . Mr . Morgan Williams called on them to be peaceable , for if they were not so it would be laid to him . This produced au evident effect on them . He commented in severe terms on the readiness of the Whies to promise , but their utter disregard of their promises when they had obtained their purpose . He was much cheered . Sir . Morsan Williams beir . g then a ? ked whether he intended to go to * he poll , said he did rot .
The Returning Oineer then declared Sir J . Guest duly elected , and the meeting separated , the Chartists rejoicing as from a victory , and the Whigs annoyed at being bearded and hissed , and at being disturbed in tke * ' even tenor of their way . " It is wit-k pleasure that we do the Returning Officer the justice to say that he did his dnty iu tbo most fair and impartial manner , and was evidently actuated by an intense anxiety to give satisfaction to all parties ,-which seemed a very dif £ . 'ult matter where there was eo much Tiolence ani party feeling displayed , but we have heard since that all parties were perfectly satisfied with his conduct , and were convinc-ed vhat he wished to act in the very spirit of the solemn oath he had just taken . — Welsh paper .

B&A-KCSESTfiXU—On Monday afternoon , the labourers walked in procession at the funeral of the three men who were killed , by the fall of the factory , mentioned in another column . As near-as we could guess , there were about six hundred , who walked four abreast , in the greatest decorum , to pay the last tribute of respect to their unfortunate and departed brothers . Thousands assembled to witness the sight , eonBistin / j of working peopleno managers , no cotton lords—none of those who livenpon the industry of the masses . No , no ; the poor men were dead , and , of course , of no more service . We heard the deep sighs of many , and saw the biff tears running down the cheeks Of their poorer brethren , with repeated expressions of " poor men , " and " what will their poor wives and families doV * Before reaching St . Borthwick ' s Church , Livsey-street , the place of interment , the throng had greatly swelled .

FROM OUB LONDON CORRESPONDENT . Thursday Evening , Juhj 15 . The circumstance of damp , rainy , and disigreeable weather , which we in London have experienced for the last ten days , appears to have a most narcotic influence over politics and politicians , lor there is really nothing to < io , or doing . You only hear the grumblings of poor Whiglings , who have now made a most wondrous discovery—namely , that the Ballot is the grand panacea for all their troubles , those troubles bsing loss of place , power , and overbearing tyranny . I will merely give you on ' e instance of their ( the Whigs ) utter contempt of the people , thou » h I have a number of cases at hand to provo more and worse actions . There is , in this metropolis , one Mr .
Benjamin Armstrong , a Whig made magistrate ol" the county . This fellow has a number of small houses , which he farms , or compounds tor ; all these houses give the right of suffrage to the inhabitants , or occupiers , npon the rates being paid . Well , to prevent their having votes , this good Whiglhlg lets the rates remain unpaid , and ike poor people be distrained upou for taxes which he ought to pay , and at the same time , he states he is a Liberal , thongh depriving men of their votes . But it is all of a piece with mtulh reformers , when they have tho workies under them—no chanca will be allowed to them ( the workies ) of exercising their vote , though they have the educational and brick qualification , * and Whigs and Liberals are in favour of such a qualification .
Towek Hamlets . —A registration committee has beea formed , which is working well , and will , before long , relieve the borough from the presence of the Whig Fox . The Police uecoud of the weak gives us a pretty proof how far juti ice is dispensed ; u this metropolis , for you will find Honourable Captains and scions ot nobility getting clear , because policemen aro not to be believed , whoa giving evidence against them , though a Tford against any poor wight , h sure to be taken , and nave full weight for their imprisonment .

Mr . Samuel Appleyard said he received the bill from the prisoner Brown . Bell being present at the time ; the endorsement of Bray , Brown , A Co . was there written by Brown . The bill was paid ia part payment for goods , sold to the prisoners jointly , to the amount of , £ 259 12 s . Od . - They said they represented the firm of Bray , 'Brown , & Co ., and would Send the balance of the invoice in cash . The bill mu endorsed down to the name of Wm . Greenwood , when it was presented , and Brown wrote on it the names of BnnTi Brown , & Co .
Two papers found m ' the pocket of the prisoner Bell were then pat in ; one was an exact copy ( in pencil ) of ihe bill , without the acceptance , and the other was a similar bill , unfinished , written on a stamp , but for one hundred pounds . Mr . Sheepshanks deposed , that the endorsement of the bill purporting to be that of York and Sheepshanks , was not his ; he had no partner ; nor had he ever authorised any person to use his name . He had no transactions" with any such bills . The prisoner Bell had beea formerly ia his employ , » ad though he could not swear positively , he suspected the writing to be his . He had had no transactions in business at any time with auy of the endorsers on the bill .
Mr . William Kirk , auctioneer , Leeds , knew the handwriting of the prisoner Bell , and had no hesitation in swearing that the signature of "York * nd Sheepshanks" was his ; Thomas Harrison's signature he believed , was written by the same hand , though more disguised . He thought the bill had been drawn by Bell . . - . ' „ . ¦ ¦ ¦ , _ . . ¦ . In cross-examination by Mr . Naylor he said he first saw the bill that morning he had been fetched to the Court House , and was told on the way that BeJlwagin custody on the charge of forgery . It was two months since he had seen Bell write , but he knew his writing perfectly well . Mr . Shackleton was present when the bill was shown to nim .
This being the whole of the evidence at present obtained , Mr . Goodman said , the Magistrates taking into consideration the convenience of the prisoners , they should remand them , to go before the : Magistrates at Manchester , in order that , if they decided upon sending the cause for trial , it might come on at Liverpool , this present Assizes , instead of being deferred till March nex * , at York . Mr , Nayloh then obtained from Mr . Apptoyard , in rej-ly to questions , that he and Mr . Sliaokleton had had an interview with the prisoners , that morning , in the gaol , when ho said , that if they could raise tho money the prosecution should be abandoned .
Mr . Bond , on the part of Brown , was instructed to say that he had an excellent defence to ' the charge ; but , as the magistrates had decided , ( and in the propriety of that decision he concurred , ) on sending the case int » Lancashire , hie advised that the defence should not be then opened at all . Mr . Nattor was of the same opinion . The prisoners were , therefore , removed , in order to be sent to Manchester . We understand there are other charges of a similar nature likely to be brought against them , this not being the only bill to which the endorsement of Mr . Sheepshanks has been forged .

In the meantime , the bill became due and was dishonoured , and after Mr .
Buckle ' s return , Booth and Waterbouse applied for payment of the bill . Mr . Buckle having heard that the prisoner was in Rothwell Gaol for debt , went there , and took with him his brother . Some conversation took place , and the prisoner made the same statement as he did when he paid the bill to Mr . Buckle . Frequent applications w&re made by Mr . Booth to Mr .

MaKCHBSTEK COW * MaBKET . —SATtTBDAT , JotY 7 —From Irelaad and coastwise the arrivals this week are to a moderate extent only , aad those of Wheat from abroad are likewise small ; but of Flour from the United States and Canada the supplies are to a fair amount . The duty on Wheat was declined to 23 s . 8 d . per quarter , and on Flour to 14 s . 2 | d . per barrel . There was a fair attendance of the trade at our market this morning , and tha animated reports from Mark Lane and Wakefield caused holders to demand an advance of 3 d . per 701 bs . on Wheat . On Flour we also raise our quotations frilly Is . per sack . Oats and Oatmeal were rather more inquired for , and although no improve * went in prices can be quoted , the previous rates were firmly maintained .
State op Tbade . —The failare of the eminent banking house of Geymuller and Co ., of Vienna , intelligence of which reached this town by the Hamburgh mail on Monday evening , produced a decidedly unfavourable effect upon our yarn market yesterday ; the German buyers generally suspending their operations until the effect of this unexpected- and extensive failure ib better ascertained . The amount of business done was conse quently very small ; and rather lower prices were , in many instances , submitted to . The demand for manufactured goods was also extremely limited , and uusiuess cioin at
we uouo m printiug was generally rather lower rates . We think it right to state , ia reference to the engagements of tha banking house of Daintry , Ryle , and Co ., which appeared in the Guardian of Wednesday last , that there was an inaccuracy of expression which was calculated to mislead the reader . The liabilities of tho Manchester firm are upwards of half a million ( in fact , about £ 600 , 000 ) , but a large portion of these is owing to the London bankers ; and the amount which will eventually fall upon Manchester and its neighbourhood is comparatively Bmall . —Manchester Guardian of Wednesday .
Rochdale Flannel Mabket , Monday , Jult 19 . —We have had a brisk market for flannels today , and many have been sold ; but there has beea no advance in price . There has been also a change iu the wool market : the sellers have generally asked an advanced price , but the manufacturers have been very unwilling to comply with their demand . :. Liverpool Corn Mabket , Monday , Jolt 19 . * - Since this day se ' nnight , we have had very small arrivals of British Grain , Flour , and OatmeaL The imports from foreign states are also of moderate amaont , and duties have been paid upon only 56 quarters . of Wheat and 15 barrels of Flour . From Canada there are reported 17 , 189 barrels of Flour , l > 450 quarters of Wheat , and 415 quarters of Peas . Siuca Friday we have had fine weatherbut during
, the previous , part of the week we had heavy rains , giving increased impetus to the trade , particularly as regards bonded Wheat and Flour , speculative purchases ia which have taken place within the last seven days to a considerable amount ; the Wheat seld has consisted chiefly of Baltic red at 6 s . Id . to 73 . ner 701 bs . ; the Flour , United States at 24 s . 61 . to 25 i . 6 i . per barrel , with about 4 , 000 barrels of Canadiau , at 32 s . per barrel . Free Wheat has been taken to a moderate extent by the millers and dealers , at 2 d . to 3 i . per bushel above onr last quotations , and free Flour at an advance of la . per sack and barrel . Oats hare been in small supply , and tather better prices have been obtained . Oatmeal has net gone freely off at 25 s . 6 * d . to 263 . per load . No alteration as regards Barley , Beans , or Peas .
London Smithfield Market , Moxday , July 19 . —Owing to the supply of Beasts offering in our market of to-day being very moderate , and the attendance of both London and country buyers numerous , the Beef trade was firm , and tho quotations noted on this day se'nnight ( the primest Soots , 200 of which came to hand by sea from Scotland , selling readily at 5 a . per 81 bs . ) were well supported . Although we had a fair average arrival of Sheep , the inquiry for them was firm , but : no advance was noticed in the currencies . Lambs catue slowly to hand , yet the demand for them was by no means brisk , at barely stationary prices . Calves moved off slovrly at late quotations , and the same observation may be applied to Pigs .
London Corn Exchange , Monday , July 19 . — There was a fair quantity of Wheat on sale this morning from Essex , that from Kent and Suffolk was limited , with a short supply of Barley , Baans , and Peas from all these counties ; and the fresh arrivals of OatS were only to a moderate extent , consisting principally of a few cargoes fresh in from Ireland . Tire imports of Foreign Grain during the past week have been tolerably good . Owing to the heavy fall of rain with which we have been visited during the past ; week , and unsettled appearance of the weather still , much higher prices were demanded at the opening of the market for all fine Wheat ; this , however , checked business , and the millers seemed not disposed to give beyond Friday's pr ices , being Is . to 2 ^ . par quarter o * er tha currency of thi 0 day se ' nnight , at which rates most of the fine samples were taken ultimately , and there was a similar improvement from last Monday on all free foreign , whilst that ; in bond was held at full 3 a . perqr . advance , but in this description the business was not so extensive as on Friday . Good marks of ship Flour must be quoted ia . per sack higher . Grinding Barley met a fair demand at rather more money ; a sample of New , of fine * quality , appeared to-day . Malt was held at quite aa high rate ? , " and a f « t demand was experienced for prime qualities . From the scarcity of English Beans fine samples wero full Is . per qr . dearer , and in steady request . Hog Peas were heid higher , but they were taken slowly in consequence , and also from the expectation of an early supply of New , one sample having been sh » wn to-day grown near town . There was a moderately fair sale for Oats , both to the dealers and consumers , choice heavy corn realising- ' 8 J . to Is . per qr . over the rates of last Monday ; all other sorts were the torn dearer .
