SALE MOOR. To the EDITOR ef the MANCHESTER COURIER. Sir, beg to represent, through your widely circulated paper, the want of a commercial school in our neighbourhood, and am surprised that some respectable teacher has not found it out. The many houses now erected of a good class, and increased population consequently, shows a fine opening for a talented man. About two years ago, a letter in your paper calling attention to this matter, caused three ladies' seminaries to be established and well supported.

Want of a schoolroom prevented a school being formed, but now no difficulty would arise most of the inhabitants are compelled to send their Children either to Altrincham or Manchester, at an extra expense and danger of going to and fro on the this will meet the attention of some suitable person, is the wish of, sir, yonr obedient servant, ONE INTERESTED. Ashton-on-Mersey, December 18, W5l. MR. WRIGHT, THE PRISON PHILANTHROPIST. To the EDITOR of the MANCHESTER COURIER.

bean amongst your earliest correspondents in drawing the attention of the public to the claims of Thomai Wright, as a man deserving the warmest (gratitude of his countrymen, and the sympathy of those who are interested in the reformation of penal beg a gain to trouble you with a few lines, to say how much pleasure it has afforded me to see so many interesting notices of his invaluable services which have appeared in our local and metropolitan press. I now, that the public mind is prepared for and expectiugsomepracficni step to be taken, in order to procure for him the means of prosecuting his important mission to the prisons of our land. I have heard of some who have thought this strictly a local affair, and that a subscription would be the best thing to do on his behalf. Those, however, who know best the extent and nature of his labours, will not think so, and would rather act upon the suggestion of the Earl of Shaftesbury, that a memorial be got up and presented to the prime minister, praying him to grant a pension and certainly this mode of procedure will be attended with less difficulties, and, at the same time, more honourable to Mr. Anxiously waiting to hear of this matter being taken up by the magistrates, or some other influential parties, I am.

sir, your obedient servant, A WELL-WISHER. PROVISION ROBBERY AND STRANGULATION. To the EDITOR of the MANCHESTER COURIER. it is a published fact that these districts are infested by a desperate gang of ruffians, whose object Is to effect robbery from the person, after bavins removed all power of resistance or pursuit, by a method little short of strangulation of the party waylaid, I am inclined to believe that any suggestions, however simple, may probably be of some public service, until better methods are made known. I would therefore Make no purchases after the general business of the day is closed.

If you live at a distance from town, arrange to be accompanied by a never go rather wait the time of each other. I know two gentlemen, neighbours, who live about two miles from town, on ene of the most lonely roads, who have long acted upon these rules. They do all matters in business hours they secure their property in town carry with them nothing for highway robbers and tcvihis mement feel the truthfulness of the proverb, "two are betier thaa Let the villains feel that the C'dic is aroused to some such steps as these, that there is little or no ty to be met with, and doubtless thvjy will soon depart for better quarters- December 19, 1831. ONE WHO WILL ACT. NEWTON HEATH AND THE LOCAL EDUCATION BILL.

To the EDITOR of tke MANCHESTER COURIER. the Courier of the 18th instant, under the head AU Saints' Ward," is a report of a meeting in one of the National School-rooms, Newton Heath, to hear statements respecting the Manchester and Salford Education Bill, which meeting unanimously approved of the objects of the said bill. So far, but your reporter omits the conversation which tookplace previous to the Rev. Chairman putting the tUOVutJm atked jSr. Atkinson the limits of the proposed measure.

He rep Had, Themunicipal boroughs." This naturally suggested the Then what do you here, Newton Heath being without the municipal borough of Manchester To this he replied, that he merely asked us to approve Of the measure on its merits. To this there could be, and was, no ebjection for although it is not what many wish, it is much superior to the dirty-brown" Lancashire Public School Association, miscalled National. There was no desire to put any obstacle in the way of the Local Scheme, but there was a desire to prevent Newton Heath being brought into any closer unity with Manchester and I state! my conviction, that should this proposal come fully before the ratepayers, its acceptance or rejection would turn upon this. Of that I am fully persuaded, and suggested, that as the two boroughs are, by the bill, provided with distinct boards of managoment, so any township, or parish, or union adjoining those boroughs, might have their distinct management. Unless something of this sort is done, the bill will not find favour in Newton Heath.

I am, sir, your very obedient servant, December 18,1851. PHILIP LAKB. P.S. I observe the Manchester Guardian advocates the local plan. This is rather ominous.

THE RIVAL SCHEMES OF EDUCATION. To the EDITOR ofthe MANCHESTER COURIER. tho letter of your correspondent, J. M.W., been written in a friendly spirit, with a real desire to point out any inaccuracies I had inatvertently fallen mAo ifor nfver will I designedly give currency to any false Should have thanked him for his courtesy, and nV with the utmost frankness. He has not, however, donl sn haeJadopted that wretched maxim ofthe wond, that "ridicule is the test of truth the lowest test, if indeed It be a test at all; has mistaken insinuations for proof-, and sarcasm for argument.

I will not follow his example, feeling the subject too serious te be discussed in the same light tone in which one would discuss the merits of the last new novel, Bloomerism, or any other epherreral topic; and considering the columns of a newspaper not a suitable medium for the bandying of personalities. J. M. W. charges me with "glaring blunders, contradictions, and false statements." A serious charge; but is it substantiated The only cases he brings forward are two, the first of which can scarcely be called a "contradiction," when I inform him I was not then contrasting the rival schemes, but the effect the "local" one would have upon two different classes of men, the High Churchman and the man who is merely "investigating truth," and it was in their case that I held the rights of conscience to be violated.

I will not, however, deny (and J. M. W. is welcome to the admission), that, in addition to this there was a secondary one present to my mind wher. I penned the sentence following the one he quoted, the difficulty, on the one hand, of reconciling the iMigious feelings of the country to the secular scheme (or literary," as Dr.

Hook caller it, when advocating a similar plan); and, on the other hand, of securing the co-operatiou of all shades of opinion to the adoption of the local scheme, which difficulty; in my opinion, militates strongly against the principle of a rate, as proposed by both schemes. The only equitable plan upon which an education rate culd be laid, I have brought forward in a letter which I addressed to you on the 27th and which has not, as yet, appeared in your columns. To come to the second charge. Ido not clearly perceive how the denial" ol the necessity of an educational rate is contradictory" to an acknowledgment" of the necessity of an extension of education; nor do 1 think my context would support J. M.W.

in his opinion. J. M. W. assures me that the Catechisms and Creeds are taught in all Church 8chools." I rejoice to hear it, and trust they ever will be, though I must confess the speeches of some of the speakers at the Free Trade Hall rather tend to confirm my fears, that, under the operation of the bill, they will not continue to be so taught.

I will not encroach further upon your space, but content myself with assuring J. M. W. that I am not one of the few" (are there any who would force everybody to receive the Church's teaching, and would conse- Saently support no scheme that did net contemplate this per ir. lam as jealous of any interference or "persecution" as J.

M. W. can possibly be, and as ready to resist, with every energy I possess, any such persecution," whether it proceed from the ecclesiastical or civil the Church of Rome or from ultra- Protestantism, which, in its spirit, is as uncharitable and intolerant as Popery am, sir, your obedient servant, December 13, 1851. AN ENGLISH CHURCHMAN. THE EDUCATION MOVEMENT.

To the EDITOR ofthe MANCHESTER COURIER. you afford me a small space in your journal to reply to certain misrepresentations of the Examiner and The editor of that paper has been regularly in the habit of misrepresenting the ward meetings of the local committee on education, and I deemed it right to correct him, as I thought he was not wilfully stating what was wrong. The meeting which gave rise to our correspondence was held in the Wesleyan School, Wesley-street. Islington, on the evening of Thursday, the 4th inst. A report of that meeting appeared in the Examiner and Timte-xm the folldwiog Saturday, in which the writer said that I was answered by two STOrking men, and convicted of misrepresentation also, that vale wasaaken, when there appeared to be nearly ten to one against theMocal plan.

Both these statements I positively denied, and still deny; and I suggested to the editor the Eropriety of deriving his information from more authentic sources, letter was published in the Examiner and Times of Wednesday, the 10th insu, with such comments as the editor thought proper to make In reply, I sent the following which was refused To the Editor of the Examiner and Times: am sorry to trespass upon your valuable space with any production of mine, but the cause of truth demands that I should take some notice of statements which appear in your paper from time to time, and which are calculated to mislead the public mind. In my letter of the 6th inetant. I did not expect to convince you of your error, or exact an apology from you, but rather to Show the public the slender grounds on which you circulated reports prejudical to the local scheme, also the character of the opposition on which you exulted. Both of these objects were fully latter by your own admission, that hissing did take place at the close of the meeting, which I affirm commenced as soon as the chairman gave out the doxology, and only ceased when drowned by the people tinging the praises of a id. And if any proof of the former is wanting, it will be found in your comments on my letter, in which you say that a person named Hughes spoke, and voted for tho local plan.

Now, I most emphatically deny that any person of that name sp on tho subject, and challenge you to the proof, if you will be so reckless as to stake the character of your journal on such testimony Bullens, or his welltrained factory lads, you must take the conseouencc But I have not fcsssyet, for fam ycsahi the game predicament in which I placed Armitage and Duffy, taamety, to make you contradict yourself In last Saturday's paper, that the votes were ten to one against the local plan; buT in Wednesday's paper you they were to 1. How you can reeornSle these statements lamat a loss to know. Both cannot be true. If you spoke the truth on day, you must have spoken an untruth on Wednesday. If you so ike the truth on Wednesday, you must have spoken an untruth on nrday.

Here you are placed on the horns of a dilemma, from which yo i wili never be able to extricate yourself. I can well afford to pass over lie personalities in which you indulge, knowing that the public will attach as little importance to tham as they will in future to your other Statements respecting the local plan, (Signed) JOHN ATKINSON." This letter, for obvious reasons, the editor dclined to publish, but he very ungenerously published certain strictures thereon, in which he says, that he stated generally that the votes were 10 to 1, and designedly understated the case, that is, he designedly stated a falsehood, or what he knew to be untrue. A pretty way of getting out of a difficulty' All men are liable to err, and we are always ready to make certain allowances for little inadvertencies, but when a man declares that he designedly states what ho knows to be untrue, then the public will know how to appreciate his statements. But is it not possible that he may have overstated the case He next tries to throw the blame on the committee of tho local plan, for not placarding their meetings and announcing ihe uamesof their speakers. The local committee are not responsible to the editor of tbe Examiner and Times for the way in which they call their meetings.

But if even they adopted his suggestion, it would not remedy the evil, for there is no guarantee against a man who will designedly yours. Greenheys. Doc. misieprt.se JOHN ATKINSON. Charities.

Lord John Scott has given the name of The Reiver" to his bay yearling colt, brother to Hobhie Noble, and that of Pug Orrock" to his bay yearling colt by Pantaloon out of Testy; his lordship has also ohanged the name of the Lily, by Picaroon, 4 yrs, to Kilmeney." Death or Mr, Edmund regret to announce the death, on Thursday week, long and severe illn. ss, of Mr.

Edmund Tattersall, brother of Mr. Tattersall, of Hyde Park-corner. His loss will be severly felt by those who have experienced his constant and unostatious charity. Arrivals at Bisch, the Radcliffe Hero (own brother to Mrs. Birch), and QBmlfymlkj-, by Sheet Anchor out of Abaft, have arrived at the near Holywell, to be trained by W.

Wetherell for their The two latter are in the next Champagne Stakes at Doncaster. Holyweul Hunt races will commence on Tuesday, the 19th of October, 1852. being the week after Newmarket Second October Meeting. There are already twenty subscribers to the Mostyn Handicap. Lichtield Races, meeting is fixed for the 9th and Nth of September, being the Thursday and Friday in the Warwick Tace week.

Sir Robert Peel, M.P., Lord Ribblesdale, and the Hon. Fraeacis Lawley, have accepted the stewardship. We understand the committee are engaged in making some important alterations. Ascot Heath Grand first meeting of the trustees, since the death of Mr. Hibtwrd, was held at the Stand, on Monday week, Lord Bessborough in the chair, when Mr.

H. Hibburd, starter at Newmarket, was appointed to succeed his father that capacity at Ascot; and Mr. E. Hibburd, who has for several years assisted in that capacity, received the appointment of clerk of the course. Pigburn Training understand that there is every probability of this far-famed training ground being converted into another use, since Mr.

From its admirable situation, and the many important reminiscences connected with It, and the annals of the Turf generally, but the races at Doncaster more especially, it would be much to be regretted that Pigburn should thus lose its attraction. Great Runnins Match. A match to run 20 miles under 1 hour 58 mm. 3 came off on Tuesday, at Copenhagen grounds; more than 2,000 spectators were present. Manks, the runner, made his start at apparently a very easy pace to himself, going over the first mile in 5 mm.

56 and completing his 10 miles in 56 mm. 56 sec. At the commencement of the 20th or last mile Manks had just 6 mm. and 3 sec. to go over it and win the match, or to perform twenty miles in less time than Maxfieid did the same distance on the Staines turnpike road in 1844.

This Manks succeeded in accomplishing, havingjust 42 seo. to spare. At the finish Manks ran or rather feli into the arms of his backer, evidently considerably exhausted by this great and neverequalled feat. Betting before starting was 6toA on Old Father Time; considerable sums were taken at those odds. TATTERS ALL'S, Thursday, derby.

THE CORN TRADE. (From the Mark Lane Express.) The weather during the early part of the week was unusually mild and though the temperature has fallen since Thursday, we are stll without frost. The moist state of the atmosphere has had an injurious effect on all kinds of now grain, and to this circ*mstance may be attributed the increased dulness by which the trade has been characterised since our last, rather than to any alteration in public opinion indeed, the impression that business in corn will improve after the turn ol the year has rather Rained ground than otherwise. Nothing yl a h' alter the JWsipon of affairs. Thero ia no reason to ociieve that the supplies frotfTabioad wiUlncrease, but on tho con- YOj? a ive of prices here and on the continent render- JEf Jfni ra t0 lm ort any quarter with profit.

We are v. tO 'P 01 tua present depression as likely to prove ly andd eeui it probable that any reduction which may take place thepresent month will be recovered in January and February. The position of many of our farmers will no doubt compel them to thrash rather freely during the next fortnight, to raise the needful to meet the different claims incidental to the season but Christinas over, the le wi we believe, fa'l off; and as the stocks of foreign wheat at the leading ports are now being largely drawn upon, there is reason to suppose that holders will not press what remains for sale. We do not anticipate any very important rise, and would not be understood to encourage speculative purchases but we believe that holders will not be placed in a worse position by exercising a Httle patience. The dull tone of the Mark-lane advices of Monday last have, however, had their accustomed influence; and at all the principal provincial markets held since then the value of wheat has shown a decided tendency to decline.

The trade, however, is unusually firm, with no pressure on the market, and even Weald of Kent pockets, which constitute the bulk of the new growth remaining unsold, support their currency; while Sussex pockets of tino quality are with difficulty obtainable. Should the spring demand at all come up to expectation, it is obvious the stock which is to meet it is short enough the Gohling portion ef the growth, whether in hags or packets, being all but completely cleared off. Yearlings have been in demand of late, particularly the lower priced sorts, and hops of older date have been and continue saleable a considerable of them havingj been called for, chiefly to the continent.

plum ers aad II Hutohinson, Liverpool, wine Heed and II Moore, Echles, Lancashire, stonemasons ToWAGE by Steam on interesting series of experiments, originating in a desire to test the applicability steam power to towing purposes, has recently been made by the directors of the Grand Junction Canal Company. Efforts, it is well known, have at various times been made to enlist steam iv the aid of canal navigation, but they have hitherto failed, chiefly from its having been sought to attain higher rates of speed than are consistent with the laws of resistance opposed to tbe rapid progress of vessels through a body of water confined within the narrow limits of a canal. Hence originates great waste in the steam power employed, and a wave or wash, much destructive to the banks, has also resulted. In the presenT instance the object has been to economise the steam power hitherto wasted, by employing it to produce high tractive power in lieu of what experience proves ii not attainable on canals, speed. The wave, on tbe other hand, is entirely done away with by limiting the passage of the boat through tbe water to a moderate rate of progress.

The locality selected for the experiment we allude to was the vioiuity of West Drayton. From this point to Paddington, a space of 17 miles, the canal is uninterrupted by locks, while extensive brickmaking establishments afford employment to numerous barges in the conveyance of that heavy material to the metropolis. A long length of canal, together with facilities for obtaining boats for towage, was thus secured. On last eight deeply-laden brick-barges, each containing 30 tuns of brick, lire whole to 240 tons of dead eight, were attached cO and conveyed from Bull'sbridge to thVrate of two and-a-quarter miles per tour, a speed equal to that attainefTby the brick boats at present lowed by horses on the canal.VThe li ne of barges on this occasion extended over a length of 791 feet, presenting a sight novel in canal fact, reminding the spectator more of the of a long luggage train on a railway than the transit of targes on a canal. It was remarked that the steam-tug, with her convoy of boats, sailed smoothly along without exciting the slightest wave or perceptible disturbance in the result obviously attributable to the moderate rate of gpeed adhered to.

The barges steered well, following each other with facility and passing without difficulty all boats coining from an opposite quarter; it was also considered by those present that had two additional barges been attached, tbe tug would have towed them without diminution of speed. On Thursday the experiment was again repeated in presence of of tbe directors, including Mr. de Salis, Mr. R. Smith, Mr.

Dagnall, and other influential shareholders. Tbe results this case were equally satisfactory, and it was universally adnitted that muoh benefit lb canals must result from the adoption of this economical motive it the heavy traffic, now seriously menaced by railway competition, must derive great and immediate advantage. It may be interesting to add that the steam-tug employed on this occasion is only of eight-horse power and, in lieu of possessing a screw, is fitted with two screws revolving in opposite lirections. She is built by Mr. Inshaw, of Birmingham, a reutleman who is known as having been much employed by tbe virand Canal Company of Ireland in the construction of screw teamers for their introduction of steam on he canal was viewed with riWm curiosity by the inhabitants of cue district, who flockoi large niusbers to the banks to witiess the passage of the train oftooats.

Muoh ill will was exhilited by the bargemen, and even those in charge of the boats under towage did not refrain from attempts at Timet.
