TW O DAYS LATER FROM LUROI'E.
The ship Silas Richard?, at Ne w York on
flie 21st, ‘ is brought Liverpool papers to the
lltli ant! London to the 10th, both inclusive.
The Mercantile Advertiser says—“ Our ac
yuntsl7om London, via Havre, were to haif
past six o’clock of the morning if tiic Bth and
this arrival has put us in poss ss:o:i of dates'
vhoncc two days later. Nothing was talked
of but the fate of the Reform b.ll—it seems
to have beqn-the all engrossing topic, as far i
as the result was known in the kingdom— j
ami it had spread with telegraphic speed—
meetings were called in various places in
London, Liverpool Ac. at which, as well as
i.a private circles, the firmness of the king was
applauded, the course of Die ministers appro
ved and full reliance placed upon their ability
and integrity.”
The loss of the bill has been deeply and j
sincerely regretted by every hand of the coun- j
try —some of the papers it: our possession are j
dressed in mourning in consequence—no sc* |
rious acts of violence bed L ou committed,
hut fears were entertained, that the persons j
.and property of those IVcrs who voted in the!
majority may not be respected by tin* popu-j
lace. Wc have not heard how Scotland oi!
Ireland received the intelligence.
From the Loudon Observer ol 10th Octo
ber, we copy the following articles :
“ Speculation is busy on the line of con
duct which will be pursued ly Earl Grey.—
Wc,believe that, up to the moment we are!
writing, Lari Grey has determined not to rc-j
sign ; and that, encouraged by the House of I
Commons and the voices ot the majority of’
the people, lie will* make an clfort to carry j
his bill by calling to the I pper House • mini-'
her of the eldest sons of its present members
who arc supporters of the bill, so that the new
titles will be gradually absorbed by the anci
ent aristocracy—by raising some of the more
distinguished commoners to the peerage with
limited remainders —and by calling a small
portion of tbo Irish and Scotch uobics to seats
in the British legislature.
If the consent of his Majesty bo obtained to
Plicae expedients, and there is no reason at
present to suppose that it will bo withheld, a
new bill will be forthwith passed through the
Commons and sent up to the Lords, with a
certain prospect, that, after some reasonable
modifications, it will Teccive the assent of
every portion of the Legislature. In the midst
of these doubts und ditficuUies, the people
beep the even tenor of their way and thojgh
a deep sense of regret appears to prevail not a
single case of tumult has occurred.”
Mr. Wiimer of Liverpool, in consequence
of having recived a short supply of tho latest
London papers, has sent us the Following par
ticulars of the state of public feeling ii- the
metropolis, gleaned from the papers of the
tOth October, together with accounts from
Derby and Chester, which follow :
“Nothing can exceed the indignant feeling

ng out the Reform Kill in the House of Lords.
Ilariv in the day, though the weather was

On the Royal Exchange, citry corner was
occupied by knots of politicians, questioning
each otherand forming conjectures on the con
sequences of this event ; most ef them at a
loss for ary mode of retrieving the wrong
done to the people of England. YVc heard
many oi them who had important private av
ocations to attend to, confess themselves
wholly unfit, through the distress of mind un
der which they laboured, to answer any claims
of that nature.
A great number of the leading merchants
and bankers, (me inbers of the House of Com
mons) proceeded to attend a meeting at Wil
lis s rooms, in order to put their names to a
declaration of support u> the present Minis
ters. A requisition is also in course of sig
] nature, calling upon the I-ord Mayor to ron
| vone a meeting of the Livery, which will be !
j presented to him this evening. No disorder I
j°f any kind has yet taken place, hut it is in
j contemplation to take stops for the organiza
] tion of a civic guard, in w hich the icspecta-
I hie householders may enrol their names, for
the purpose of npr< ssinguny tumultuous move
incuts which may occur.
lJic cilecton the funds is a comparatively
imperfect test of feeling in flic city, which has
been too acute and too highly roused to occu
py it with transactions of a speculative kind.!
The fall of Consuls was one per cent. The <
closing price of last night was SO, and some
bargains took piaco at 79 a , after which a re
action occurred on learning that the ministry
would on no account relinquish oliicc, and
the closing price was 80,\.
j Iho news ol the iatal vote on Saturday
j morning sprang over the country with almost
’ telegraphic rapidity, and produced every
where astonishment and consternation. An
express reached Birmingham at live o'clock
in the ; fternoon ; a universal feeling of dis
appointment and indignation pervaded the
whole population. The funeral hells of all
the churches and chapels were muffled and
fdk-d, os on the most solemn occasions. The
Council of the Political Union assembled m
the course of the evening, and an address to
the people to abstain from outrage was imme
diately issued.
'i’iic offect produced in Manchester on the
arrival ot tho nows was great beyond prece
dent. The first report of the probability of
its rejection, was received with complete in
credulity. People said that the thing was im
possible, without supposing the Lords insane.
There is but one voice in the Town, and all
differences on minor points are absorbed in
the great question which now convulses the
country from one end to the other.
By accounts received in the Caledonia
Mercury ot Tuesday, serious apprehensions
appeared to be entertained of the interruption
of order in the YVrst of Scotland, to which '
quarti r numerous bodies of troops have been
ordered ; but down to the present moment
happily the fears of the public have not been
confirmed.
j Indeed the accounts from the country, so
far as they have yet reached us, are frightful.
Fhe operations of Trade are suspended, from
a feeling that men’s minds arc about to be agi
tated by passions which will lend no time for
barter or Commercial speculations.
Tha reform members of tiie House of Com
mons met on Saturday to the numbers of 200
although the call was so sudden, and agreed
to propose the following resolutions this eve
ning :
“That it is expedient to declare tlieir unal
j t red and undiminished adherence to the great
measure of refoam.
| That it is their determined purpose tostand
by and support the King’s Ministers in the
present crisis of affairs.”
Accounts received i.q Liverpool last eve
ning (10th from Derby, represent Serious dis
turbances to have taken place in that town on
the receipt of the intelligence of the bill huv
j ing been thrown out ; the populace, itis add
-1 ed, vented their fury against the inhabitants,
! whose sentiments were known to be at vari
! ance with public opinion, by attacking their
i dwellings, breaking their Windows Ac. when
j the populace proceeded to the goal, and libe
| rated the whole of the prisoners both debtors
and criminals.
The news of the defeat of the reform meas
ure produced the same powerful sensation in
Chester as in parts of the empire, where it ar
rived on Sunday about noon. The inhabi
tants immediately assembled and presented a
requisition to the Mayor the same day, (Sun
! day) requesting him to call a meeting at the
earliest moment, to address the King on the
all absorbing topic. The representatives of
the city have also addr* ssed letters to tlieir
constituents, requesting them to exhibit firm
ness and unite in the present alarming crisis.
The newspapers detail a lute extraordinary
occurrence in Kentucky. It is tho recent
death of Ebeticzer N. Robertson, Esq. a for
mer member oi tho Assembly from Russell
county,by the hand of Dr. Peirce, the last and
present member. The county court was sit
ting in the village where the parties icsidcd.
Some business called Fierce intocourt. The
first object that fixed his eye wits Robertson
—who by agreement had left the county nev
er to return—writing at the clerk’s table.—
Fierce gazed nixm him for a monuit in mute
astonishment; then suddenly turned, and re
tiring by the door, re-appeared presently at
the window, beneath which Robertson sat in
presence of the court. Reaching in, with a
pistol, near to the head of his victim, Fierce
tired, and lodged the contents in his brain.—
The cause was tho seductiorf of the latter’s
wife. The deceased had been challenged
and refused to accept it. He agreed to leave
the county, but returned and met his death as
above. One indictment for murder, and an
other for manslaughter, were laid before the
grand jury. Having made such investigation
as they under their oaths, deemed proper,
they returned both indictments into court
with their finding endorsed upon each—‘jVot
a true bill — ‘■not a true bill.''

The Macon Cotton Market, yester

quantity of Cotton came in, and went off briskly
at 7 1-8 to 7 Ii cents. Several parcels command
ed 7 3-8. On that square of Mulberry ’reel, em
braced by Third and Fourth Streets, and in tin
vicinity of Cotton Avenue, we counted upwards
!of sixty carriages, principally wagons,all of which
! with but few exceptions, were loaded with Cot

I the season, that the receipts of the year would a
rnovint to '. 0,000 bales, 10,000 more than the last—
but w'c have since heard intelligent merchants
compute them at upwards of 90,000. VY hat bet
