DEMONSTRATION FOR UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE AT IPSWICH . { Abridgedfrom the Essex and Suffolk Times . ) The appeal of the Working Men ' s Association to the operatives of Ipswich met with a cordial response on Wednesday evening last . The spacious Lall nnder the Literary Institute was too small to contain the numbers that flecked to the meeting , and hnn--dreds of persons were necessitated to remain on the outside , not being able to obtain ingress . The hour iixed for the chair bping taken was seven , bnt business didnot commence until twenty minutes past , when , on the exterior and in the' interior of the building , there could not hare been less than 2 , 000 persons present . Mr . Charles Bird , painter , took ; the chair , and said—Brother "working men and fellow-townsmen , I
have to thank you tor the honour yon have done me td placing me in this duration on this rery important -occasion . In the first place I have to claim at your liands your kind indulgence in opening the business oftheevening . ( Hear . ) Our object in thus meeting is the welfare of the whole community . ( Hear , hear . ) Our object is not confusion or disorder -l { hear , and cheers;)—and it appears quite pl ain that the magistrates of this town have no idea that there will be any confusion or disorder to-night ; for -I cannot perceive that there are any police here or in < rtixe neighbourhood of the meeting . ( Applause . ) Therefore it affords me considerable gratification that the authorities of the town place * o mnch confidence in the honest intentioni of the Working
Man ' s Association of Ipswich . ( Loud ch * en . ) We hxve thought proper , ai thia time , to invite our fellow-townsmen to meet us for the purpose of adopting -the petition of the Birmingham Union , which , no -doubt , you are aH well acquainted with . That petition has already received the sanction of hnndreds of thousands of the ¦ working mm of . England . ( Tremendous cheers . ) And I feel persuaded that the "working men of Ipswich wiD . also give it their support . ( Loud applause . ) Ii is our intention , honestly , bol ly , and manfully to communicate to you the -object of the Working Men ' s As ^ sociations this eveij . ing . Our object is to give egnal rights to all—( etfihuaastic cheering)—resspectiug t ' je -rights of both rich and poor . We hare been accused of having for our object a general scramble . This I deny : onr object is brotherly love j it is to create the leeling oi love among all men , more particularly among the
working classes . ( Cheers . ) Yon know very well that the Reform Bill has been passed , now about six . years ; and yon all know , to your sorrow , the situation we are now in , which causes us to meet iu this way , and to endeavour to nnite ourselves tor the express purpose of advocating aud maintaiuing , anU also of drmandin ? , onr rights , and nothing more . { Loud cheers . ) We do not wlsa to infringe on , orin any way interfere with , the property of any man or set ol men ; we desire that all property should be protected ; bur at the same time , wewil . not allow the few to live and fatten on the industry of the many . ( Loud cheers . ) I am gnmmnded by my brother working men , who will severally address you as working men , and I feei coiifideut th ' at they will be able to explain to your satisfaction , the objects had in view by the Working Men's Association * , also what is necessary for the workin ? classes to do . not only for theirown benefit .
but for the whole of the community ; that is , as 1 stated before , to protect the property of ' evrry one . and lo secure to every man his just rights—the rights of industry . ( Prolonged apptausp . ) Youknowvery well wliatnsrrebeen tbeeffects of ihe New Poor Law . -and that ihe object of that measure -was to throw evt-ry man on his own resources . " To this 1 have no objection , provided it nuis through all classes -ot society . All I complain of is , that , like-many other measures of our legislation , it did nor , begin at the proper end . ( Reiterated cVering . ) ^ ow , it is my belief that that BiH will itself have tn ? effect of -working the salvation of the couutry ; so far as it Trill set men to thinking , and make them determine that if they art ; to be thrown on their own resources , every man shall be thrown on bis own resonrce < , and that no set of idlers shall roll in extravagance and
3 uxnry derived from the working classes . ( Loud cheers . ) The working men are , 1 know , quite willing to remunerate every man that tenders a sen-ice to his conn try , and I do not think they desire to act improperly towards those who nse their talents arid ability in the cause of the public good . ( Applause . ) Jt affords me pleasure to witness such a numerous body of my Miow working men . I have no object but die public good to prompt me on this occasion . I have seen many great men placed on the bench which I now occupy , and yon can see vrhatcan be done by the intelligence and perseverance of the community—the working classes . It is Tar from me to urge any man to aspire beyond the situation he has a right to -fill ; but 1 wish that every man might be placed in that comfortable .-drnatiou to which bis industry and perseverance entitle him . ( Applause . ) Thai is tie stnadon in . which 1 wish to see him
placed . ( Long-continued cheering followed this address . ^ Mr . D . M'Phersox proposed the first resolution , which ran as follows : — vi Tiiat this meeting are of opinion that , required as they are universally to support and obey the laws of this country , nature and reawn entitle them to demand " that , in the making of the laws , the universal voice should be implicitly -Kstened to ; and that , as they perform the duties of freemen , they must have the privileges . of freemen ; they are therefore convinced that the ^ nfirage must ¦ be UHiversaL ' "' ( Tremendous cheers . ) .
3 fr . . N . Whimper , wine merchant , in seconding the resolution , made the following , amongst many others , excellent observations : —If things ar « allowed to continue as they now are , what the situation of the country will be it is not for us to determine at prt sent . It is therefore essential that as citizens we should stir ourselves , and consider the evils that bear usdoan , and see if it liesiu our power to make any alterations for the good of the community at large . Our object is to pffect their good , and- " we now bring "before you a petition for Universal Snffrage . ( Cheer ^ O On that point , I have no objection to acknowledge that I once felt objections . I did not dive into questions of a political Batnre then as much- as many others did . When I beard the term ¦• Universal
Snffi-age" first , itstrnckme that it was not right or proper . ( Several voices here interrupted the speak er by crying out ** adjourn to the hill ; there are hnndreds of people here who cannot come in . " Much excitement continued in consequpnce of the pressure from without , but at length , order being restored , Mr . Whimper resumed . ) I believe there are number * of persons that have the same opinion of Universal 2 > u 8 rage that I had then—that look upon it with all bnt abhorrence , and conceive that it never can be conceded to the people . But you will understand 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 mnst not be supposed that the fcbvof twelve or
fourteen years of age , or an apprentice is to have a vote . Those who are of twenty-oneyears of age , and uneontaminate d -with crime , are the persons whom we should wish to possess the franchise . ( Applause . ) It has been asked , ~ Wonld you give the Sutfrage to a pauper ? " I would say Yea . For why is a man a pauper ? Oftener on account of bad government than from any other cause . ( Cheers . ) Do you think ¦ that if we had good government we should hove the Poor Law ? ( CrW " of - Xo , ;> and cheers . ) Would the Com Laws be continued to the present moment ? (" No . " ) Wonld there be so -many infamous acts appearing on the Staine Book if we had Universal
iratirage r ( Renewed plaudits . ) Certainly mot . Why / Because it would have enabled the constituency to make choice of those men who would 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 not allowed the erection of those Bastile * . ( Loud cheers . ) The justice of all men having a rote h * erideiit ; it is reasonable and proper that they should have it when they come to years of maturity . Is there a difference in intellect ? br was therefrom the beginning ? Did not God make all nations of the earth of one blood , although there have been and are distinctions of men ? To Bisht we are mat here without distinction ? And I-
hope there will be an unanimity of feeling , in favour of those measures which will be for the general good of all . ( Applause . ) It ii supposed that the male population of the' United Kingdom is about > ix Millions ; and it is contemplated bj the People ' s Charter to diyid * e the country into , three hundred equal Wang distr icts . If then the six miDiou * of men be divided b y three hundred , It will give a consbtaency of twenty thousand to each district . Mr . -vYhunper concluded by seconding the resolution . The resolution was supported in a lone- and excellent speech by Mr . John Gosling , shoemaker . It was earned unanimousl y , a ^ most enthusiastic vociferations of applause .
Mr . I > - » ti » Stdiiebt proposed the second reso--lutionas follows—" That , m order to secure live free and uncontrolled exercise of the franchise , the people must hare the protection of the ballot - that -to make the connexion between the representative -aad the people beneficial and intimate , a new Parliament should be elected annually ; that it is jut and right that the constituent boij should have a free and nnrestricted choice of the representative , and that their choice shooldbe the only qualification ; and also that the services rendered by their representative jthould be adequately remunerated , in order to ensure the faithful discharge of his legislatorial -function * . " ( Applause . ) - ¦" ..... Mr . J . Bird , bricklayer , necosded the resolution . The Chaihiuk then read the Birmingham peti--tiom and ., - "
Mr . Robert Booeet , coach spring maker , proposed its adoption . * Mr . H . Gabrakd ( carpenter ) in seconding the adoption of the petition , observed that the people required something more than good government , ana * rast was the security forgood government , which could never be made permanent or certain , until the . people ' * interest in it is universal , and they are equally represented in the House of Commons ( Applause . ) They had now begged andprayed for

justice too long . They had a Reform Bill , the frtritji of wMch they were denied the benefit ot .. The Chairman put the petition to the meeting , who agreed to it unanimotulj . This was followed by tremendous cheers . Mr . Samuel Clctten moved " That the petition lie at the Town Hall for thTee days for signature , and afterwards at the Ipswich Arms , Brook-street , for further signature , previous to being sent to Birmingham , to be subjoined to the National Petition . " In doing so , he addressed some appropriate observations to . the-meeting , in support of the Working Men ' * Awociation . 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 dne to the London W ° rking Men ' s Association for tieir exceUent outline of tb . » People ' s Charter ; and to the Council of the Birmingham Political Union for the National Petition . " Mr . Gosling proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman for his conduct in flie chair , and to the Working Men ' s Association for thB active part they had taken in calling thu meeting . ( Loud cheers . )

THE VICTORIA STEAM-BOAT—FINAL CLOSE OF THE PROCEEDINGS . On Monday last , Mr . Baker , th « coroner , and the jury brought to a final close the long-protracted proceedings in this important case . On t ^ -e names of the jury being called over one was . found to be missing , ard Deverill , the beadle , said that the gentleman , whose name is Dounell , was so severely indisposed as to'be qnite unable to atteud . There still-being , however , thirteen jurymen present , the coroner weut on with the proceedings in the cases of Jacob Heanens , James Young , William Colville , Jacob Asper , George Clay alias Xutchcroft , William JVl'Kinlay , John M'Donald , and James Wilcox Dt * rrington .
jSIr . David Napier , Mr . Seaward , engineers , and Captain BelL the commander of the Victoria * , Brown , a fireman , and Wesr , the pilot , were the witnesses examined ; and wereenchsworn eight times , according to the number of deceased persons . . Mr . Hall , the mauagina owner of the company , and Mr . L . Jacobs , his solicitor , attended , as on every other occasion . After the tedious operation of sign ' . ng the depositions had been gone th ough , The Coroner proceeded to charge tbu jury in the cise of James Young . Hesa ; d that although some witne ? Sfs had neglected to re-appear and reconi their evideuce in the cases uow before them , as well
as in the first case which they had cousi lered , yet he did not think it necessary , alter the time that tbu jury had devoted to the inquiry , that they should be any longer detained . One uf the witnesses , Mr . Dickemon . of Blackiriars-road , had since hi * _ examination in the first case died , aud othvrs were ab-? enr m varions parts of the roautry . Tbe Verdict in this case , a > well as all the others , migbt be accompanied with a similar deudauo as thai named by the jury in tbe case of Andrew Brown , it being uudrrstood , as he had before remarked , tuac not more than one ot the amounts would be demanded , as the property upon which it was levied could be only once forfeited .
The jury then requested the room to be cleared , but in about half an hour the doors were reopened . when Mr . Peter Mellish said the jury had agreed in the whole eight cases to similar verdicts to that returned in theca > e of Andrew brown , namely , * 'Accidental Death , with a deodand of £ 1 , 500 , at the same time expressing the opinion of the-jury that the construction of the boilers was unsafe , thut the water spaces were too smaH and tbe plates too thin , and that the engineer had no control in the en ? iieroom over the safety-valve . " Tne jury were then engaged for a long time in attaching their signatures to the necessary docuineiits , which being done ,
The Coroner congratulated them upon the close of their labonrs , and presented his Acknowledgments for the great attention they had paid to the very difficult and lengthened investigation in which they had been eugaged . They had satisfied their own consciences , aud the public woul . i be satisfied that they had done their duty . His ( the coroner ' labours would not , however , close here , as he had that moment a copy of a writ de certiorari put into tiis hands by Mr . L . Jacob , = the solicitor of the Hull Steam-boat Company , removing the proceedings into the Court of Queen ' s Bench . The jnry then separated .

BRITISH ASSOCIATION FOB THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE . Nz " wcastle-x ; poh-Tyne , Aug . 20 . The most extraordinary improvements have for some time been going on in this town , ' perhaps , for the short space of time , unprecedented in any provincial one . In the centre of the town , and surrounded with buildings , was , until tbe last few years , a large uncultivated portion of ground , but which , by ihe death of the original proprietor , reverting into the more active hands of his legatees , became the area of tbe most remarkable enterprise . On it now stand streets of beuses that will vie with any in the metropolis ; markets second to none in Great Britain ; a theatre , music-hall , picture gallery , exchange , and the not less prominent object ef the column tu Lor 3 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 , night and day , in order to make tbe necessary preparations , and clear the streets . This singular metamorphose was completed on Saturday night , and yesterday there was seaicely a vestige remaining of the operations which tue day before were mort extensively carried on everything being provided for the adequate accommodation ef the meeting . The town is now very full , the number of members who had registered at tbe TowD-hall on Saturday evening , at ten o ' clock , being , 1 , 734 . Every steam-packet from London , Leiti ) , and Hall has trithin the last two days , brought a great influx ; and tbe Ocean steam-vesael , which had been specially placed on the London station , arrived on Saturday afternoon vrith upwaids of 120 passengers ,

TO THE WOMEN OF BIRMINGHAM . Mi dear Friends , a » t- * I hare twice called yon from ^ &jfemportant domestic duties to attend public meetings . I have there explained to yon the causes which havebrought want to your board and care to your pillow . The iron pressure 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 conr&e , to recover the 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 industry in their pride , and plunderedit 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 English labourer in bis bread , in his beer , in his tobacco , in his tea , in everything , and having thus burthened him , they have deli-sftred Mm orer to the free competition of the untaxed foreigner . They dragged the wife from her home , tbe cbild from its sport , to break down the wages nf the husband and father . They made monopoly for themselves , and competition for us . They made laws to make us poor , and tken made poor-laws to deprive 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 factions of the State , that it is impossible , under its present burthens , the trade of England should be maintained in successful rivalry against the competition of the untaxed foreigner . We know , therefore , that bad begins and worse remains . We askurarselres , if die whole of out trade breaks down nnder the nratenra of our burthens , -what accelerated destruction—what multiplied miseries will come upon oa when the whole of our burthens are brought to press upon half our trade ? We « ee our fatkera , husbands , and brothers , worn in strength , and mbdned in spirit , by dwproportioned toil , and the more fatal agency of care , and under the present system we see only a fatarity aggravating every present evil . We will liot go through the terrible ordeal of suffering the strength of our country to be withered by so cruel a poverty .

Oar rulers coolly attempt to compel us to keep our , burthens " an'ilose our trade . We are determined f fnr the common safety , to throw off our burthens , and preserve the trade , the happiness , and the power of our country * , and , therefore , do the women meddle witbpolitics . .. !" ' . '¦¦ . - The people have petitioned in vain for twenty years ; their humble pjayens have been refused , aiid their increasing miseries disregarded . The factions have given to the unconquered 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 whole family of the people , unite
for justice . The proud have steeled their hearts , but the poor have united their stregth , and there is a bond 01 unity in truth , a strength in virtue , and a weakness in guilt , and the cry of the oppressed ever reaches ) 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 tiie country , and give no aid to the brave that battle for the right , yet sha ll the people be de livered , 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 ! IC has ever triumphed , and it shall now secure the most glorious and perfect ef it *
nctone 8 . The men of Birmingham have set a noble example to the country . The women of Birrainggham shall set a still more unrivalled one . Within a fortnight , fifty thousand women shall have sigaed 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 you , meddle with politics , and I am , Your faithful friend , T . GLUTTON SALT . Birmingham , August 16 th , 1838 .

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 Chadwiek , Esq . Bentluy , the beadle , stated that he took him in the act of gambling , near Chapel House , on Sunday , with a crowd of boys around him .

Spotland Workhouse . —On Monday , a woman ot weak intellect , who had been fouud in rhe street at an improper hour , was brought before William Cbadwick , Esq ., at the Sessions Room . Mr . Stott , the Overseer of Spodand , 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 our , and there was no way to prevent tht . r a j they always went out at pastimes ( it vvas the wake ) . Tlie uuman , he ^ aid , wa » - not her own person , but she knew better than to do as ^ he had done . Mr . Chaiiwick said the ratepayers ought to build a wall round the Workhouse , and take 1 are and keep tbe paupers within , except at proper rimes . > ¦
MIDDLETON . National Demonstration . —On Monday , Mr . Henry Vincent , of L-mdon , addressed a publicmeetiujj , lield in Ebeiiezer Chapel , Miildleton , on the subjects of Radical liefotm and tiie Nnrianrti Demonstration , about to be carried into effect . Mr . Wilde , the chairman , said it was now time tor the weavers of Midilletou to act . No man got l > is living by silk weaving who was not miserable . He hoped they would take notice of what Mr . Vincent said , aud begiu to unite , which they might do by jo . ning the Working Men ' s Association . Mr . Vincent repeated the aiivice to unite ; the time W 9 j uow come : the King or Queen took care of thrir prerogatives ; the Peers did the same b y their owu interests ; tne House of Commons , was con posed ot Jews , stock-jobbers , and monied men . all combining to keep down the working classes . He theu t ^ ok a
view of the origin of the Reform Bill , and 01 the Whig measures which succeeded it— -the Irish Coercion Act , the Poor Law Amendment Act , aud the violation ol the Canadian Constitution . Only 17 Members of the House ol Commons were found to support tbe petitions for the repeal of the Poor Law bill ; and when Lord Ashley described the su tferings of the factory children , the Honourable House burst into roars oi laughter . [ Hear , hear . ] The object of the National Association was to destroy this Parliament ; they must break it up , by giving to every wan oi sane mind a right to vote for the men ¦ who were to make the laws . He explained the principles of Anuual Parliaments , Univer-> al Suffrage , and Vote by Haljor , members of the House of Comrnous were to be paid -wages , and tbe property qualification should be done away with . The next move must be for Universal Suffrage and
nothing else ; delegates were to be elected for every district , there would probably be three or four hundred delegates r . hosen , and it would be strange if out of those they could not select forty-nine ^ to assemble in London ; the law only allowed , the assembling of forty-nine delegates at one time and place , but they could take it in turns , a wvek or so each , until the business was transacted . They should always have forty-nine sitting ; they would go npon the Birmingham petition , ana the delegates would call on the members of Parliament and tell them their constituents demanded LJuiversal Suffrage , mean time the working people should prepare for a week's strike , and they must do it by laying by
whatever 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 migbt be called on to come out in their holiday clothes , not to go to work agaiu until they obtained their political liberties . [ Hear , hear . ] The aristocracy would become desperately fiogetty ; by Tuesday morning they would be musing with their hands in their pockets , on Wednesday they would be for petitioning the people , as "The Parliament of England , to the 'ouest people of Englaud in holiday assembled . " They would then grant Universal Suffrage , and might perhaps throw them in a democracy to the bargain . [ Laughter . ] The people were not , to fear
ihe soldiers ; the soldiers would do them no harm ; they were not to run away from them , or tbe police . The people would have all they wanted , though now they were told it could not be done . - ( All old woman exclaimed , " Aye , but it can . " ) [ Laughter . ] If . - ' a lew thousands struck , and it made asrnsation , how much more when the whole people of London , Manchester , Birmingham , Glasgow , and all the other large towns struck in one hour , and all were directly on theirmarch to the metropolis . ( Applause . ) Tbe speaker invited the operatives of Midilleton to make another link in the chain of union ; they must break ap this Parliament . It was intended , in
about a month , to hold a very large meeting soiwewherenear 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 / Feebly 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 Slur and London Dispatch , as supporters -of their cause . A vote of thanks was then passed , and the meeting separated .
Constables' Accounts . —On Wednesday , at two o ' clock , a meeting should have 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 tbe worthy officials had to set to and ring the customary bells for some time , before a meeting could begot . In about an hour , half a score ratepayers were mustered , and the accounts were passed .
HULL . Absconded Seevant . —On Wedne sday last , Murphy , a person in the employ of Mr . Mitchell , tobacconist , absconded , taking with him £ 380 , which he bad 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 , aaachild belonging
to _ Mr . Brown , joiner , was playing , it wa * perceived to be in great danger from a brewer ' s dray . Mrs . Brown ran to save it , and , in her ha ste , both herself and the little one fell down , the dray passing over the child . The arm , face ^ aud Bhoulders 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 .

Land papers tothe 15 th x » f April , and HobartTown Jour&alg to the 31 st March , by the Onoelt . Sir John Franklin has ^ taken the first steps towards the amendment of the Aasignmfcut Regulations in the sixter colqnj , to the imperfection of which public attention has been excited .

Accounts have been received at Havre , by the Unite , from Monte Video , of the 6 th of June , statin Rtbat the blockade at Buenos Ayres atill continued with the greatest vigour by six ships of war .

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 diyision which is cruising before Tunis . '¦ .

Accountsfrom toulbh state that ei ght ships of war , amongst which : the Hercules , of 100 guns , are to reinforce the blockade squadrou off Tera Crui . It is doubtful whether the bombardment can commence before the beginning of November .
: THE . " FUNDS . ( FromtlieHelveiieofthelithinsi . ) The affair of Louis Napoleon appears to be at present the all-engrossing question and the order of the day in Switzerland . The JSelvetie takes the lead of theprt-ss of that country in vindicating the rights of the confederation , and urging the Diet and nation to resist the exorbittant demand of the King of the French , who , after his repeated attacks against the neutrality and independence of the republic , still presumes to call himself its generous and
faithful ally . The measufse required by Louis Phili ppe had inflicted , so deep a wound on the national pride of the Swiss people , that the juste mileu itself did not hesitate to brand , with the utmost energy , so flagrant an encroachment on their ri ghts as a nation , and the aristocracy presenred a sutlen , though significant , silence . " Switzerland , " says fbe Helvetie , "i « determined on supporting its ri ghts , and we trust that she will not stop at any sacrifice . If the hermerical blockade were agaiu to be resorted to on our frontiers , we should ourselves retaliate b y forbidding ; all communication with France . We
will prove to her that we can do without her , and procure elsewhere what we want . If FraHcewage war against u ^ , 40 j 00 o carbines and an entire nation re > olvt-d on defending its homes will perhaps have more weight in the scale than the mere name of Louis JNtipoleon , and be attended with much more danuerous results or complications . " " Let \ M thank Heaven , " adds Helvetie , " for Wing repuhUcaiiK , and for having no other ambition chan that of wording for a livelihood , in perfect
independence , without slave * or masters . At no former period didI sociery exhibit a more profound immorality , and display it with more effrontery . Its'principal seat is in those regions where the fate of nations depends on a few heads adorned with trinkets , and on some servile courtiers , and thence it stalks abroad to corrupt all the inferior clas < es . It would appear that ' it . was not sufficiently rich and powerful to dare to commit acts which public morality has repudiated in all ages .
¦ 'I n the conflict which has arisen between Switzerland and France , between two countries whose alliance tbe revolution of 1830 ought to have so closely cemented , we hehold a . king reigtiing over 32 , 000 , 0 ' ) 0 of citizenj acting the bully before a people of 2 , 0110 , 000 of souls , and presuming to compel them to punish a fellow-citizen , whom , he liimsflf did not consider it expedient to try when he held him in his power . We see a man ( the Duke of Montubelld ) who owes his fortune , rank , and honours to Napoleon , aceept , under the title of Ambassador 61 another monarch , the part of a
persecutor , pride in being a . servile instrument , and striki .-vg blindly the nephew of the man but for whom he would now be a locksmith , like his ancestors . We see a prince , now a powerful monarch , but formerly au unhappy exile , who found in Switzerland a tranquil and secure refuge , menace the hospitable land which sheltered him , and vow destruction upon it if it treat * 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 to flatter 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 rejected , not onl y because Louis Napoleonic beloved in the country , but because our fellow-citizens hold to principles . "
MONEY MARKET ( This Day . ) We have nothing new from tbe westward to-day , and the violence of the gale yesterday has prevented the arrival of the steamers from Rotterdam and Ostend . We perceive by the French papers that the raiW way from Paris to Orleans is commenced ; 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 Messw . Andre and Cottier , Hagermaun , 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 the weather continues to attract much attention in the city , as it is feared that an unfavourable harvest would damp the growing prosperity of the kingdom .

We may infer , from the number pf Cattle shown and the ready sale fpr them , that the above will , next year , be equal to either of pur other celebrated Fairs in October and April , as the attention of buyers is all that is requisite , the district around being farmed by some of the most influential graziers in Yorkshire ,
