The EARL or DERBY had audience of Her Majesty on Thursday, to present an address from the University of Oxford. THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLE has arrived at Vienna, en route to the Crimea. IT is understood that the Emperor of the French has writ- ten to Lady Raglan, in which more than ordinary feeling is displayed. Mr WILLES, of the Home Circuit, was, on Tuesday, sworn in as one of Her Majesty's judges, in the room of Mr. Justice Manle, retired, before the Lord Chancellor, at the House of Lords, in his private room. The Presse of Vienna mentions a rumour to the effect that Lord Westmoreland is likely not to return to Vienna, and that the Hon. Mr. Elliott, a near relative by marriage of Lord John Russell, is to succeed him. APPROACHING MARRIAGE IN HIGII LIFE.—A matrimo- nial alliance will shortly take place, between Lord Muncaster and Lady Jane Grosvenor, daughter of the Marquis of West- minster. _ _ VlscouNT CANNING is appointed Governor-general of India, in the room of the Earl of Dalhousie, who will return to England before the end of the year. Lord Canning was Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs from 1841 to 1846, and has been Postmaster-General since the formation of the Aber- deen Administration, in January, 1853." On FRIDAY, an address was issued by Mr. E. Wodehouse,- M.P., announcing his immediate retirement from the repre- sentation of East Norfolk, on account of impaired health.

The Bath Chronicle records the death in that city of the Marquis of Thomond. His lordship had in early life seen much active service in the navy, and had attained to the rank of admiral, but for the last thirty years he has lived retired in Bath. His lordship has left no issue, and the Marquisate will become extinct, but the Barony of Inchiquin descends to Sir Lucius O'Brien, Bart., of Dromoland, County Clare; or, as some allege, to Mr. Smith O'Brien, the Irish exile, brother to Sir Lucius.. _ On Monday, Miss Coutts gave a juvenile party at her villa, Holly Lodge, Highgate.

Offices, 1, Parker-street. BY ORDER OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE LATE CHARLES TAYLEUR, ESQ. IN a few weeks will be offered for PUBLIC SALE, the WOODCItOFT ESTATE, freehold of Inheritance, con- taining about 50 acres, situate in the township of Wavertree,on the north or north-east side of Smithdown-lane, and running along Wellington-road towards Wavertree-lane, with which latter it communicates by a new street lately made the whole length of the property. _ It is proposed to sell the estate in lots of from 10,000 to 18,000 yards, but, if required, it will be sold in such other quantities as may suit purchasers. Woodcroft House, which was built with every attention to con- venience and comfort, with good outbuildings and offices, corn- prising about 18,000 yards, forms a very desirable lot.

The great sewer now being constructed for the suburbs will af- ford an excellent drainage. Plans and further particulars may be had by application to P.

LIVERPOOL COUNTY COURT, YESTERDAY. ARE CASIROS A " NIIIS.ANCE ?"—CURCHOD V. SMITH.—In this case, John Henry Curchod,proprietor of the Queen's Hotel, Lime-street, was plantiff, and Edward Smith, of No. 11, New- ington, dancing-room proprietor, defendant. The claim was for £5O, " for damages caused by a nuisance to the plantiff as an hotel-keeper, by the defendant having kept a casino, and having had music and dancing and assemblages of prostitutes adjoining the plantiff's hotel for the last six months." The damages were laid at £5O. Mr. Aspinall, instructed by Mr. Snowball, appeared for the plantiff, and Mr. Hime for the defendant. Mr. Aspinall, in opening the case, stated, that the plantiff paid £5OO per year for the building which he originallyoccupied and £l6O per year for part of the adjoining building which he also occupied, the defendant occupying the other part. The hotel was immediately contiguous to the railway station, and therefore in an eligible situation for business. Some little time ago, a large building was erected adjoining the original hotel, which the public were told was to be a freemason's hall— o, great ceremony was gone through, and the first stone was laid by one of the most moral and religious men in Liverpool, the then Mayor, who would, he (Mr. Aspinall) thought, have been very much shocked,if he had known what use the building was to be put to. Something afterwards occurred by which its original purpose, as a freemason's hall, was diverted. Mr. Curchod had still the lower room of the new building, which was, perhaps, the largest coffee-room in England, divided into two parts, by a large staircase which led from the outside to the story above, which was the dancing room. Mr. Curchod at first occupied the whole of the new building, but after a time he ceased to occupy the middle room, and continued to be the tenant of the lower story, and also the bed-rooms above. He left the intermediate room in the hands of the landlord, who let it to a Mr, Woodhead for £l6O a year, for • an exhibition of anatomical figures. That did not pay, and the landlord made an arrangement with the present defendant, who kept casinos in more places than one. It was now fre- quented by prostitutes and persons of the lowest character, and these assemblages were a complete nuisance, inasmuch as they took place immediately contiguous to the thief en- trance to the plaintiff's house. The dancing and noise were complained of most seriously, and would probably have been in some degree whatever the character of the persons was who assembeled there for the purpose of dancing. The up- roarious noise was most intolerable in the hotel, and had made it impossible for plantiff to carry on his business, which must be against the law, for no person could be allowed to carry on his business in such a manner as to injure his neighbours. The coffee-room had been rendered perfectly useless at night, the lamps were frequently broken, and a great portion of the ceiling had been shaken entirely away. Then the bed-rooms adove the dancing-room were also rendered perfectly untena- ble from the terrible noise going on underneath ; the same nuisance applied more or less to the original rooms which Mr. Curchod occupied in the hotel itself. In fact, the nuisance was such, that if it could not be abated, the plantiff might, perhaps, have to shut up his house altogether. Mr. Hime, on behalf of the defendants took objection to Mr. kspinall arguing that the plantiff -had been injured in his ibtsiness, on the ground that the action was only stated to be fbr a nuisance, and not for compensation for loss or damage. His Honour seemed at first inclined to allow Mr. Aspinall 'to amend the wording of his summons, but after a legal argu- 'ment, it was determined that the case should proceed on the question as to the nuisance alone, Mr. Henry Curchod, the plaintiff, was then called, audstaterl that he paid at the present time £6OO per annum for the entire premises that be occupied. He formerly also c.coupied the room in which the nuisance complained of took plaverand paid his landlord V. 50 per annum rent, and one-third of any profits he might rnake by-letting it for exhibition purpeses. He had twelve bed rooms and four dressing rooms over the dancing room kept by the defendant, and a coffee room•under it. He had laid out £1509-in furnishing and fitting-up those rooms. The defendant had told him that he Paid 414500 per annum for the room 'he -occupied. In summer, the • dancing usually commenced about-half-past nine o'clock, and in winter about eight 'o'clock. -He found 70 or 80 persons, in the room one night, •about three months ago, when -he went to complain to Mr. Smithelout the plaster falling. -He thought about 100 persons would attend there each night. He could not use his bid rooms and coffee room while the-dancing was going on. He had seen Mr. Smith on the matter, and told him be should be obliged to 'proceed against him on account of the nuisance. Mr. Smith replied that, if he did, he would drive him (plaintiff) to London. On being cross-examined by Mr. !lime, the plaintiff ad- mitted that helad a-perfect knowledge, when•lfr. Smith took the room, for what (purpose it was to be occupied. He also once entertained a proposition that he (plaintiff) should supply refreshments to the room, and have a communication re-opened with his house; and admitted that he placed -a counter in it, and leilt Mr. Smith a number of chairs. Ilethad had an inter- view with Mr. 'Moorhouse, of London, the owner of the build- ing, cm-the matter,,and the latter wished -him to give up all the bed rooms over the casino. He had •offered to do that, if Mr. Moorhouse would pay him what he hadlaid out on them. Nothing came of the offer. He had also offcred to sell the de- fendant 100 chairs at 4s. each, which was not accepted, but that was not the: reason why he had brought this action against him. -Mraohn Westmoreland, joiner and buil/ter, was next called, and stated that he was employed by the plantiff about two or three'months ego to take up the floors of the bed-room imme- diately over the dancing-room, and put down fifty bags of sawdust and bags of ashes, under the flooring, with a view of deadening the, sound of the music. It had not, however, answered. Mrs. Stockham; plaintiffs housekeeper, proved that, for the lastlten weeks, she kad occupied one of-the bed-rooms over the saloon, and it was quite impossible to get any rest while tht, dancing was going on, which was usually the case till twelve o'clock and after. ids. aJsn P.51.V0 .111tharino similar testimon7. -Henry Murphy, Tenspector of Police,-deposed that he visited the hall on the .18th.. and 19th of April, and found thirty or forty women of the town, and several gentlemen there. Music and dancingavere going on. He was there again on the £3rd and 24th-of April, and found about the same number there. These visits were made at ten, eleven, and up to twelve o'clock, at which hour the place was generally closed. He never found: it open after twelve.: He spoke to Mr. Smith, and told him what ,kind of characters' the women were, and that complaints had been made, and' proceedings would be talren against him. Defendant replied, " Let them try: 1 am prepared. I. know the man newt door is complaining against me, but it •isall because I weild not purchase the 100 chairs from him. Ile knew that respectable men's wives and sisters will not come, but the women who come conduct themselves properly.,..and I do all I can to keep the place respectable.' George Philip Woolfe,:a waiter, proved that .gentlemen would not remain in the .coffee-room after the dancing began. -Mr. Duckworth, architect of the building, deposed that he advised Mr. Curchod to place the .saw-dust bags under the bedroom floor, on account of the noise. Inspector O'Brien gave evidence similar lo that of Inspector Murphy. Mr. Hime then, on behalf of the defendant, submitted that there was no case, no damage being named in the summons, and:no special damage shown. He argued that it was not un- lawful to have music and dancing, and that not a tittle of evi- dence had been given on_the score of immorality. His Honour thought -there was nothing proved as to the nuisance being caused by prostitutes inside the rooms. The same number of decent young women and young men dancing there might have made the same noise. The defendant was not liable for any noise they might make outside of his pre- mises. In the course of the case, Mr:Aspinall referred to the case of " Van Saultorf v. Bahbid," in which an action was laid for a .nuisance caused by the ringinc, of bells, at untimely hours, at a Romish Convent at Clapham, London. His Honour referred to this.and several other relevant cases, in one-of which a boiler maker in this town was sued for a nuisance, .and read cases to prove that.a person could recover where a-neighbour's dog caused an annoyance either by day or by night. After the evidence had been gone -through, and the legal arguments concluded, his Honour said-the,case was too im- portant to: be hastily decided upon. if he was prepared to hold that the proprietor of the Queen's Hotel was entitled to recover at all, he thought it would be -merely a nominal damage at any rate. He thought Mr. Aspinall had better ttwa hhma seo enpngrdne quite present eti term mte aacwttaiahossinen, moe and ninsa sdladpcpnalaimlopiedtpiri rdf ao Irvitdeoor tnth aflohyriaf: dancing-roomwoi txtrh months.emthonerthmonths. i I wHainest t po rta frequentedne.e personsqn e ati oont' was,g oo (1 charactercoul dtfyh niosral inneoilam:bu :use neighbour, ofrh his h im- portance. houset- for music ancLdancing, to the injury rendering himself liable to an action? On that -question he would give his judgment on the 24th instant. WHO SHILL -DECIDE WHEN (HORSE) DOG-MORS DIS- AGREE P—PARRY -V. CLAREE.—This w a as question of horse- warranty. Plaintiff, a car-driver, bought from defendant a bay mare, for which he paid £9. She was warranted to be " sound, a good feeder, and a good worker." Plaintiff, on purchasing her, noticed that she was a little lame in the off- fore-foot; but he was assured that it was "nothing-at all." He took the mare to Chester on one of the ragedays, and found her speedily ".knocked up." He put a feed of oats before her, but she would not touch it. A veterinary surgeon afterwards examined her, and found that she had the glanders and pbarcy. Plaintiff, ,therefore, wanted defendant to .take her back again, but he would not. Plaintiff then procured a certificate from a veterinary surgeon that she was incurable, and dangerous to keep, and, having sent previous notice to the defendant, had her destroyed. Defendant alleged that he had a veterinary surgeon's opinion that the horse was quite whole; but one of his own -witnesses, a coachman, admitted that he had remonstrated with his master for taking the mare back from Messrs. Busby, to whom he had sold her previous to the plaintiff, and who returned her into his hands after keeping her two or three days, because she was too slow. He thought she might have contracted the disease while in their stables. His Honour said he thought the plaintiff had proved his case; but he adjourned Ms judgment until the next Court in this month. BIRTH.—On the Bth inst., the wife of Mr. John Lindsay, of Upper Parliament-street, of a daughter. BANKRUPTCY COXTRT, YESTERDAY.--Mr. Williams, late a tailor and draper, inJames-street, opposite St.Oeorge's Church, came up before Commissioner Perry on his last examination. The case was adjourned for a month, in order that an amend- ed balance sheet might be -filed. RE GEORGE CLAUS.—On Saturday, at the Liverpool Bankruptcy Court, before Mr. Commissioner Stevenson, Mr. George Claus, of Crosby, a bankrupt, came up for judgment on the question of an act of contempt towards the court, in having torn up a search-warrant issued by his Honour. The Commissioner, taking into consideration the state of excite- ment in which the bankrupt was in at the time, the ample apology he had offered, and the contrition he had expressed, thought the justice of the case might be satisfied by directing that the bankrupt be detained in the custoey of the messenger until the rising of the court that day. ASSAULTING A POLICE-OFFICER.—At the Police-court, on Saturday, John Evans, and John, his son, living in a court in Haigh-street, were charged with assaulting police-constable 139. On the previous evening the officer hearing a great dis- turbance in the prisoners' house went in, and perceiving a quarrel, was about to take the younger one into custody, when the old one attempted a rescue. Another officer then came in, and a struggle ensued, in the course of which 139 was struck a severe blow on the head with a poker. It was pleaded in mitigation of the father's offence, that an excess of paternal feeling had urged him to commit an offence of which he would not otherwise have been guilty. The old man was dischargede but the younger was fined 0, or to be committed for thre, months,

TUESDAY, JULY 10, 1855. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. THE business of legislation is now progressing with railroad speed through the House of Commons, as though the members had become wearied with their own long and useless speeches, and were at length desirous of bringing the session to a close. After wasting about six months, in doing what may be called literally nothing, but discussing abstract propo- sitions and impracticable projects, they have at length discovered, that it would be as well to have something to show, as the result of their labours ; and accord- ingly a number of Bills are being hurried through the several stages required by the forms of Parliament, without much regard to their consistency, or even their grammatical construction. This is a vicious system, which is year by year increasing, and for which there appears no adequate remedy, until we have a really strong Government with sufficient moral courage to compel attention to important measures at an earlier period of the session, and firmly resist those repeated adjournments, by which so many Bills are postponed, until deliberation is altogether out of the question. It is, indeed, difficult to tell which course is the most productive of mischievous results, the purposeless discussions of the greater part of the session, or the hasty and careless legislation by which Bills are hurried to maturity at the close. The mem- bers become wearied by long sittings, until at length but few are left to take part in the business, and then Bills which may have a serious influence on the com- munity are passed, and sent up to the Lords, who must either reject them or agree to them as they are, from their utter inability to pay any attention to the details. It is such a course of proceeding which renders necessary so many acts to amend and explain former acts, until the Statute Book becomes a mass of confu- sion, and laws intended to effect one object are decided by learned judges to enact the direct contrary. There was a time, and that not many years since, wlien Dills sent up from the IHOIISe of 6,inunms were rendered most efficient, through the care which was bestowed on their construction in the House of Lords : and this was not to be wondered at, considering the many able and experienced lawyers who transacted most of the business of legislation there. All this, however, has been rendered impracticable through the majority of Bills being left to the very end of the Session, so that barely time is afforded for the neces- sary forms to be gone through, without a possibility of deliberation. THE SIEGE OF SEBASTOPOL.

of almost all other details, it is the opinion of many that the numerous army which has now been collected might be advantageously employed in meeting the enemy in the open field, so as more effectually to com- plete the investment of Sebastopol, and shut out the possibility of further reinforcements or supplies. Should this object be efficiently accomplished, a suc- cessful termination to the long protracted siege cannot be far distant ; and if Sebastopol were once fairly in possession of the Allies, there would be no great diffi- culty in clearing the Crimea of the Russians. It is, of course, not easy to say to what extent Russian obstinacy may proceed rather than give up its long- cherished policy of universal dominion ; but, with the mastery of the Black Sea, the Allies would be in a position to dictate terms of peace even more stringent than those which were rejected at Vienna. THE GOVERNMENT AND THE BUILDING SOCIETIES. HOWEVER ready the Government may be to suc- cumb to popular agitation, when it is vigorously pressed, they have not much delicacy on the subject when the interest to be assailed is weak in everything but the justice of its claim. By an act passed in the 6th and 7th of WILLIAM IV., which was specially intended for the regulation of benefit building socie- ties, they were exempted from stamp duties on trans- fers, mortgages, and all other documents, the object being to encourage the extension of such societies, by way of promoting industrious and prudent habits amongst the middle and humbler classes. Of the wisdom of such a provision, there could hardly be a second opinion ; for there is perhaps no stronger security for the maintenance of loyal feelings and the preservation of order than the possession of real pro- perty, for which the operations of these societies afforded great facilities. Experience had proved that in the majority of instances they had been most suc- cessfully carried out, and the number of them exist- ing in Liverpool, Manchester, and other large towns prove the favour with which they have been received. It was, therefore, with great surprise, not unmixed with feelings of indignation, that it was discovered that an insidious attempt had been made by the government to deprive Building Societies of the advantage which they had so long enjoyed in their freedom from stamp duties—fn advantage, indeed, which formed the main ground of their prosperity. In the Friendly Societies Bill, a measure which has no reference whatever to Building Societies, a clause was introduced to deprive the latter societies of their exemption from stamp duties, and, notwithstanding the opposition of several members and the earnest remonstrances of a deputation from the Building Societies of this and other towns, the clause, with some slight modification, was passed through the House of Commons, and the bill was sent up to the House of Lords. There the clause was objected to by Lord RAVENSWORTH, who was met by the plea that it was a breach of the privileges of the Lower House to interfere with any money clause in a bill. This, however, did not deter the Earl of DERBY from opposing such a surreptitious mode of legislation, and when the bill was in committee he moved that the clause be struck out, so as to leave the Building Societies in the same position as they were before, and confine the bill to its ostensible object of dealing with Friendly Societies. Upon a division, the motion was successful, and the Building Societies, grateful to the Earl of DERBY and the peers who voted with him, considered themselves safe from the threatened assault, at least for the present session. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER appears to be unwilling, however, to lose any opportunity of re- cruiting the national finances, when it can be done at the expense of the weak. A demand had been made for reduction of the duty on stage carriages, because, as it was alleged, the duty affected the breeding of horses for the army. The proposed reduction would sacrifice £50,00n of National Tnenme. but as he linel ... given up half a million to gratify a senseless cry about taxes on knowledge, he could not refuse this small boon to omnibus proprietors, particularly when it was backed with the plea that more horses were wanted for HER MAJESTY'S cavalry, though it would be difficult to discover in what way an increase of stage carriages could promote this object. But even this sacrifice of revenue must not be made without some show of obtaining compensation, and, accordingly, a second attempt is made to impose stamp duties on Building Societies, notwithstanding the positive re- jection of the scheme by the House of Lords. In Committee on the Stage-Carriage Duties, some other resolutions relating to stamps were appended to it, and amongst them the rejected clause, which was passed- without the members not in the secret being aware of its object ; but on bringing up the report on Friday, the ministers were taxed with the deception, when Mr. WILSON stated that the resolution which limited the exemption to sums not exceeding £240 had been framed in order to carry out an arrangement that he had entered into with a deputation who had conferred with him upon the subject. This is only true in part, for the deputation were opposed to the whole measure; but, finding the Government unwilling to yield, those members of it who represented societies the majority of whose transactions were below £240 agreed to that amount being the limit of exemption as being all their interest in the question. The question has, however, been once decided upon this session and rejected, and if the Government should persist in a course which can only be termed an act of tyranny and oppression, it is to be hoped that the EARL of DERBY and those who voted with him on the former occasion will justify their character for consistency and again reject the obnoxious measure. [JULY 10, 18 dification of the arrangement has been ra, now determined that the soldier shall additional sixpence a day, and the remai be invested for the ultimate benefit of representative. The subject underwent some diseussl' House of Lords on Thursday, the Earl BOROUGH stating his belief that, if the NA listment were raised to £2O a man, it wool' more economical arrangement for the ' prove more effectual as a stimulus to the plan proposed by the Government the question may be true in some respects' tainly would not tend to enhance the In( army, inasmuch as, in many cases, it would encouraging habits of dissipation by giving made soldier the means of indulging them wanted is a better system of promotion, private soldier may have a laudable and a' time a practicable object of ambition. If ments, such as the Guards, had addition other advantages, and admission made good conduct, instead of a particular ' sonal appearance, the soldier would have fairly within his reach ; for it must ever be mind that prospective rewards are of JO stimulants to emulation, unless there be a probability of attaining them.

30,376 BREIDSTUFFS.—With an increase of the poorer grades of state and western flour, and continued favourable accounts of the growing crops from nearly all parts of the country, holders manifested an increased desire to get out of stock ; the con- sequence was that prices had receded 25c. to 37c. The better qualities were less plentiful though firmer, yet prices were slightly depreciated. Wheat was inactive. Corn was active, and the sales in the aggregate were estimated at 90,000 to 100,000 bushels Western mixed, including small lots, sold earlyi in the morning at 1014 c. to 102 c. in prime shipping order. The market then fell off, and the great bulk sold at 99e. to 101 c., with some parcels of inferior at 98c. Western yellow was reported sold in small lots at 102 c. PROVISIONS.—The market for old mess pork had advanced 25c., and prime 371 c. to 624 c., with a good inquiry, part spe- culative, -the market closing firm. The market for beef con- tinued buoyant, and the tendency of prices was upward. Prime mess beef remained inactive, and prices were entirely nominal. Bacon was scarce and firm, with a moderate export demand. Lard in .fair request, and the market *c. better. Butter plenty and dull. Cheese remained dull. InoN.—The market was without change ; steady and firm for pig and bar, with sales of 600 tons Scotch pig at $26 to $28,50, cash. English refined bars, $6O ; common, $54,75 to $55, six months. SALT.—SaIt continued in good demand at the recent im- proved rates, and the sales noted include all afloat, and two cargoes of St. Übes, from store ; they embrace six invoices bulk salt, including 2,750 sacks Liverpool fine, and 6,000 to 7,000 ditto, ground and fine, to arrive. FOREIGN MANUFACTURED GOODS.--This branch of trade remains as at our last report, without apparent activity. Some new goods are received, but as yet the prospect of effect- ing sales is so poor, that the importers withhold the exhibition of samples. COILL.—The market .was without change. 120 tons of in- ferior Liverpool brought $6, 4 mos. FEElGnTs.—Freights were rather dull. Cotton was taken to Liverpool at 8-16 d. to 7-33 d.; grain, 3d. to 4td. ; flour was nominally Is. ; pork in barrels, is. 3d. ; rosin, is. to is. 3d.; turpentine, ls. 6d. to is. 9d. ; deadweight, 12s. 6d. to 158. ; measurement goods, 10s. to 12s. 6d. • beef, ls. 6d. to ls. 9d.

Spanish flour quite Is per sack lower, but so great a concession was not made in the price of English. Oats, oatmeal, barley, and English beans were likewise rather cheaper and very dull of sale, but Egyptian beans on the contrary were is per quarter higher and in, rather better request. - -•- • PRESTON, JULY 7.—There was a poor show of English wheat at market to-day, which was all cleared at Is per windle advance, and good fresh parcels of English and foreign in store, commanded 6d per windle. equal to 2d pr 701bs. above the last quotations. Flour is per pack dearer. Barley unaltered. Beans 6d to Is per windle higher. Oats neglected, and oatmeal difficult to quit at an abatement of 6d per load. WAKEFIELD, JULY 6.—The wheat trade was firm, with a steady demand, at fully last week's prices. In barley there was no change. Beans sold slowly. Oats and shelling rather dearer. WISBECH, JULY 7.—The supply of wheat is less than last week, evidently drawing into a narrower compass, which, although the weather is very fine, emboldens the farmers to ask and obtain higher prices, and are fully Is. and in some instances 25, per qr. dearer to•day. Of spring corn almost nothing offers, and former prices obtained. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JULY 7.—The supply of wheat from the country this morning was small, and went off quickly at an advance of is to 2s per qr. on the prices of this day week. A good business done in south country and foreign at late rates. Barley fully as dear, and in some instances held for more money. Not much doing in oats : no change in value. Flour continues to move off slowly : no improvement in price. CORK, JULY 7.—The trade in nearly every department has been characterised by langour, and a very limited amount of transactions is reported. Foreign and native wheat fully as dear as before—secondary qualities 2s to 2s 6d per brl. cheaper. Indian corn rather decreased in demand, and iOs to 12s 6d per ton lower than on this day se'nnight. Oats, 3d per brl. advance has been obtained. Barley dull, at Is. per brl. reduction. Flour nomi- nally the same as last week. DUBLIN. JULY 6.--A firmer feeling generally in our corn market to-day. Wheat sold at the extreme prices of Tuesday, oats were 3d clearer, and barley without change in price. Indian corn dull at a decline of Is per quarter. White Wheat 41s Od to 44s Od Red do 39s Od to 42s Od New wheat oos Od to 00s Od Barley, grind 17s Od to 20s Od Bere l6s Od to lis Od Oats, old oos Od to 00s Od Oats, new 15s 6d to 175 3d Rapeseed OOs Od to OOs Od Oatmeal.. 155 Od to 175 0.1 Bakers' Flour 23s 6d to 27s Od Indian Corn, per 480 47s Od to 49s Od PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, JULY 6.—The demand for beef has not im- proved, the sales are of a retail character, but there is no tendency to lower prices, the small stock inspiring confidence. In pork also the transactions are unimportant, without change in value. There is rather more inquiry for bacon, but buyers try to come in at a greater reduction than holders think proper to concede, hence the transactions, though more extensive than for a week or two past, are only of a retail character.- At a-further advance of 6d to is per cwt, there is a fair inquiry for lard, and the sales for the week are reported at 200 tons. High prices are maintained for cheese, and good new American will find a ready sale. Grease butter is wanted, but there is very little here. JULY 9.—The butter market was not so active during the past week, but the high rates paying in Ireland caused holders to demand an advance of is per cwt. for choice qualities, which, with the very hot weather, gave a check to sales, and the trans- actions were only to a moderate extent ; the supply continues very good. The quotations are the prices asked to-day :—Water- ford, Carrick, Dungarvan and Clonmel, 96s to 99s ; Kilkenny, Carlow and Wexford, 945 to 95s : Limerick, 88s. to 92s per cwt., landed. Imported from Ireland from the 30th June to the 6th inst., 11,323 kegs, 468 crks., 257 bxs., 195 brls. butter ; 61 bales bacon, 7 hhds. and 7 trs. hams, and 15 kegs lard. ST.

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY AT SEA. I ABOUT eight o'clock on Friday morning the brig Her I Majesty arrived at Queenstown, and cast anchor opposite the barracks. Shortly after her arrival rumours began to spread of a most dreadful tragedy having been enacted on board, and these were confirmed by the fact of a seaman, badly wounded, having been borne to the hospital. Her Majesty is a brig of 221 tons, belonging to Mr. John Rickenson, of Whitby, and sailed from Salonica, a Mediterranean port, about the beginning of May, with a cargo of Indian corn consigned to 6 London, and bound to Queenstown for orders. Includino. the captain, Wm. Wright, of Whitby, and the mate, Samuel Cole, the crew amounted in all to about nine. Amongst the crew was James Veale, a native of Ireland, who had been very badly conducted on the voyage, and against whom the captain [ had several entries in the log-book. On the 28th of Juno, ' while in lat. 44 deg. N., long. 14 deg. 46 min. W., the captain came on deck about midnight, and found that Veale was not, as he should have been, on deck, it being his watch. He found him lying asleep in the galley, and he got a bucket of water, [ and threw it over him. Veale awoke in a rage, and started up. The captain walked towards the cabin, and Veale ran round, at the other side of the mast, drew out a large case L knife, and stabbed him in several places. The man at the wheel, George Bald, a native of Fifeshire, observing the transaction, called out to another man, "take the wheel till Igo and call the mate." Veale hearing this, ran down the companion and got into the state-room of the mate, and stabbed him three several times, exclaiming " there, there." The mate struggled faintly with him, but had only strength to extricate himselt from his berth, and crawl up the com- panion, when he fell upon the deck. 'While the murderer was engaged upon the attack of the mate, Bald, an old man, went down the companion and into the state-room of the cap- tain to look for fire-arms. 'While they were there, they shut the state-room door, and only barely in time, for Veale, after com- pleting his terrible work in the cabin of the mate, rushed over, and drove the knife through the panel of the door they had shut, in an *Tort to break it in. Foiled in his design here, he went again upon deck, and it is supposed while passing he threw overboard the bodies of the mate and cap- tain, as they were never seen again. He then went forward to the forecastle, where two men were sleeping, and stabbed them both savagely, killing one of them, the cook, Samuel Weekes, and inflicted upon the other, George Bald, the man who was taken to the hospital, no less than six wounds: In the meantime, the two men in the captain's state-room re- mained in a dreadful state of alarm and anxiety, until, at length, hearing everything silent, George Bald stole up the companion with a pair of loaded pistols, which he had got in the state-room of the captain. As he got near the head of the companion, his head being in a bent posture, he was met by Veale, returning from his work of blood in the fore- castle, and received two stabs, one in the back and one in the shoulder. He fell down the ladder. and one of the pistols went off in the fall. Bald got into the state-room and secured himself there, and remained there for some time preparing a musket. After a little he heard the noise as if scuttling the vessel, which Veale was attempting with an axe, and he came up with a musket which he fired at Veal, and wounded him in the leg. This, in all probability, saved the vessel, as there were found afterwards in the deck and in the side of the vessel, holes from about eight inches to a foot square. Veale then retreated to the forecastle, and Bald then came after him and secured the scuttle. He then, it is said, broke the bull's eye, and fired another shot at Veale, but this did not hit him. While Veale was below Bald and the other man hoisted signals of distress, which were answered by the Isabella, of Liverpool, bound for Bristol, and the mate, James C. Howe, and two men came on board. Howe went to the forecastle, and Veale called out from within, begging of Howe to shoot him. Howe replied that he would do no such thing; that he would bring him to justice. He then went back on board his own vessel to procure more assistance, and, on his return, the whole body went forward to the forecastle. They then waited for a while, but on looking down through the bull's eye, they saw his legs hanging down. They opened the hatch and went down, and found that he had ended his misdeeds by suicide. He was taken out, and it was then ascertained that the shot fired by Bald from the head of the companion had taken efiect on him. The body, and that of the cook, who lived twenty-four hours after he received his wound, were thrown overboard. While this transaction was taking place a nephew of the owner, a little boy, who was on board, got into the fore-top, and so escaped uninjured. CONFESSIONS of LORD JOHN RUSSELL. THE comments of the Daily News on Lord John Russell's extraordinary statement in the House of Commons, on Friday, are the more significant as proceeding from the chief Liberal organ, and the general supporter of the noble lord's policy. We extract two passages : In reply to certain interrogations from Mr. Milner Gibson, as to the accuracy of the allegations contained in Count Buol's last despatch, the noble lord confesses that substantially those allegations are correct. There may be verbal errors and incidental omissions, but in the main the Austrian Prime Minister is perfectly warranted in his assertion, that to the final proposition made by him for compromising the questions involved in the third basis of settlement between Russia and the Allies, the Plenipotentiaries of England and France at Vienna gave their assent ; and that they undertook to urge its adoption upon their respective governments. M. Drouyn de Lhuys returned to Paris, laid before the Emperor the reason which had led hitn to come to that conclusion, and failing to convince him of its adequacy, deemed it his duty to resign his place in the administration. Lord John Russell returned to London, invited the cabinet to concur in the opinion he had declared to .Count Buol, was out-voted by his colleagues on the sufficiency of the terms he had consented to, and instead of retiring from office, proceeded forthwith to defend in parliament the rejection of the offer. We own we should have hesitated to believe any other testimony than that of Lord John himself on such a 'subject : but as he has thought proper to place the matter on record, we have no choice but to express our disappointment at the course he hac pursued, and our astonishment nt the l'Pncnne he has set forth as its jtistification... _ For-some time this journal stood alone in vindicating the rectitude of his conduct, measured by the rule of personal consistency he had himself laid down. We adhere to that rule ; we deeply deplore that he has been induced to abandon it. And what is the paramount consideration which the noble lord says outweighed all others in his mind ? From a distance lie saw that the administration of Lord Palmerston was from the outset unpopular. The authority of government appeared to him to be shaken. He could not see any justification for this national distrust in the constitution of the ministry under his noble friend's auspices ; and he therefore resolved to sacri- fice on the most momentous of questions—that of peace or war—his individual convictions, and to become the defender of the government through thick and thin. The most oligar- chic and exclusive administration that the people of this gene- ration have seen—the most recklessly jobbing and incompetent that we can call to mind—is, according to the noble member for London, so well worth preserving at any price, that he is content not only to give up his own views, and to retract his own declarations as a diplomatist, but to become its unre- served apologist and eulogist in his place in Parliament. Mn. LAING is reported to have gone to Austria for the purpose of arranging the concession of the Hungarian rail- ways to a company. TIM Turkish Loan of £5,000,000 is about to be brought out under the united guarantee of the English and French Governments, which has just been accorded. THE steamships Hydaspes and Glasgow arrived at Mar- seillles on Saturday, with advices from Constantinople to the 28th, but none from the Crimea. A destructive fire happened on Saturday afternoon in the store-houses of the London and Brighton Railway Company, at the Bricklayers' Arms Station, whereby a large building, hay, corn, straw, and other goods, were destroyed. On Saturday morning, between four and five o'clock, a most extensive fire broke out on the premises of Messrs. Daniel and John Watney, distillers, Wandsworth, Surrey. The damage already done must, at a moderate estimate, amount to upwards of £40,000 sterling. AN ACTION was tried last week against the London Dock Company, by the proprietor of the wine purchased at "rum- mage" sales, which was so mysteriously transmuted into good sound port. The company denied that the wine claimed by the plaintiff was his property, and paid £25 into court, to cover the value of the casks. The jury found that that sum was sufficient, and a verdict passed in their favour. assigned for the fact was that he AMONGST the insolvents who applied for protection last week was a man who had been baptized "Eliza." He was a Dutchman, and the reason gned was named after a sister who had died. In England (he had been trading as a cheesemonger in the London-road) he found it convenient to call himself "Edward Smith." A CURIOUS SCENE recently took place at St. George's Church, Barnsley. A couple of Messrs. Taylor's factory opera- tives presented themselves in their working attire, wishful to be united in the bonds of matrimony. The several attendants, all of whom work at the same place, all went in their shirt sleeves or similar dishabille, and the ceremony having been performed, they returned to their work, having only been absent a few minutes. THE SCOTTISH NEWSPAPERS.—At the present moment Scotland seems likely to be overrun by a torrent of journalism directed by various groups of impulsive individuals, who have evidently become impressed with the notion that "the chief end of man" upon earth is to print, distribute, and read news- papers. There will be a dozen daily papers in Glasgow and Edinburgh, with as many more in the distance, to appear as soon as credit can be found for types, machinery, and paper with which to make a start. Every Scotch printing-office is in a state of effervescence, and compositors, pressmen, and ma- chine men find themselves objects of solicitude and importance such as they never expected to realise. THE bankrupts Paul, Strahan, and Bates were again brought up at Bow-street, on Wednesday, when the only additional evidence was a letter from Sir J. Paul, authorising his attor- ney to raise the sum of £27,000 on certain securities. The money was lent by Messrs. Overend and Gurney. The case was again adjourned. The prisoners appeared to feel deeply the degrading position in which they were placed, and Mr. Strahan trembled violently the whole time he was in the dock. The position of the prisoners was perhaps rendered more degrading by the appearance of an artist, engaged for one of the illustrated papers, who was busily engaged in sketching their portraits. THE BRIGANDS AT SMYRNA.—After passing a week with twelve brigands of Smyrna, Dr. Macraith has been released on payment of £460 ransom. After a series of negotiations, a spot was fixed for receiving the ransom, and setting him at liberty. This took place at a small farmhouse, about eight miles distant from Smyrna. The Pasha has since been roused up to offer £lOO for Simon's (the chief brigand) head, and £3O for the heads of any members of his band. One thing our countryman has obtained for his £460, and that is a scrap of paper signed by Simon and Moro, which will carry him harm- less through all the banditti of Asia Minor. When this bri- gand seized Dr. Macraith, they took a donkey from a Turk, on which they placed their prisoner, and afterwards shot its owner for following them. DISCOVERY OF THE BODY OF BALMA.T, THE SWISS GUlDE.—Jaques Balmat, the celebrated guide of Chamouni, who was lost in the ascent of Mont Blanc about 20 years ago, while acting as guide to some travellers, was found a few days ago, according to the Gazette de Lausanne, in the broken-up ice which forms the arch (vo ate) of Aveyron. To the astonish- ment of persons passing that way, the body of a man was dis- covered, the upper portion being still buried in its frozen tomb. A number of persons were promptly summoned to the spot, and, after cautious efforts with pickaxes and other instru- ments, they succeeded in disengaging the remains of the old and popular guide, Jaques Balmat, in a state of the most per- fect preservation. The body was immediately conveyed to Chamouni, where it received every mark of honour and respect. Jaques Balmat acquired some celebrity by being one of the guides to M. Saussure, the naturalist, in the year 1786.

THE LATE LORD RAGLAN. The following general order, with reference to the late Lord Raglan, has been issued : HORSE GUARDS, July 4, 1855. The General Commanding in Chief has received Her Majesty's most gracious commands to express to the army the deep regret with which Her Majesty has to deplore the loss of a most defoted and able officer, by the death of Field-Marshal Lord Raglan, the Commander of the Forces in the Crimea. Her Majesty has been pleased to command that her senti- ments shall be communicated to the army, in order that the military career of so illustrious an officer shall be recorded, not only as an honourable testimony of Her Majesty's sense of his eminent services, and the respect due to his memory, but as an example worthy of imitation by all ranks of her army. Selected by the Duke of Wellington to be his military se- cretary and aide-de-camp, he took part, nearly 50 years ago, in all the military achievements of our greatest commander. From him Lord Raglan adopted as the guiding principle of his life a constant undeviating obedience to the call of duty. During a long peace, his life was most usefully employed in those unwearied attentions to the interests and welfare of the army, shown by the kindness, the impartiality, and justice with which he transacted all his duties. When war broke out last year, he was selected by his sovereign to take the command of the army proceeding to the East : he never hesitated, he obeyed the summons, although he had reached an age when an officer may be disposed to retire from active duties in the field. At the head of the troops during the arduous operations of the campaign he resumed the early habits of his life; by his calmness in the hottest moments of battle, and by his quick perception in taking advantage of the ground or the move- ments of the enemy he won the confidence of his army, and performed great and brilliant services. In the midst of a winter's campaign, in a severe climate, and surrounded by difficulties, he never despaired. The heroic army, whose fortitude amidst the severest priva- tions is recognized by her Majesty as beyond all praise, have

THE Eibtrpoof :;-.)tattbarb, TUESDAY, JULY 10, 1855. CHURCH PROSPECTS. IME was, when Bishopricks in Ireland were abolished with as little ceremony as if the office of those who filled them had been one of confessedly human institution, and of very questionable use. Time was, when a profligate Minister insolently bade our own Bishops to set their houses in order ; when the Church's foes were many and rampant ; and her own :children, for the most part, either disaffected, or disheartened by contemplation of the many dangers which surrounded and threatened her. Happily, since then, things have slowly but surely altered for the better ; and the change, which has already been accomplished, affords a bright augury for the future, so that those whose birth dates from about the period referred to may well hope, if their lives be spared, to see the Church of England more healthy, more ear- nest, more vigorous, more powerful for good, than she has ever been at any period of her history. Dangers, it is true, still beset her, which will call for all the prudence of her rulers, and all the zeal and diligence of her pastors and people, to carry her through ; and others, still unseen, may arise from time to time, to retard her progress ; but still, we say, the experience of the last quarter of a century is such as to inspire us with gratitude and hope. Who does not recollect the timid tone in which a certain Commission reported, with regard to the re- arrangement of our overgrown Dioceses ? How they proposed to take a slice of territory from one and add it to another, as if the existing evils could be reme- died by giving additional work to a Bishop who had already enough or too much, and leaving those who were overworked only less so than they were before ? How when, with wondrous temerity, they ventured to suggest a new see at Ripon, they felt themselves com- pelled, as a counterpoise, to propose the union of Glo'stiaa... _and Bristol ? We all know, too, how nar- rowly, first the see of Man, and then that of St. Asaph, escaped suppression, in order to provide a Bishop for the wealthy cotton-metropolis; and how, when the see of Manchester was at length erected, it was only upon condition that there should be no addition to the Spiritual Peers in the Upper House, though up to the time of the Reformation they were actually more numerous than their lay brethren, who have since been multiplied without let or hindrance. We all know, too, how Commissioners recommended, not the reform, but the cutting-down of our Cathedral Es- tablishments ; and how Parliament carried out their recommendations, thereby rendering them incapable of that efficiency, the lack of which was urged in defence of their spoliation. Who, then, we ask, will not thank GOD and take courage, when, with all these things, he compares the Report of the last Cathedral Commission, recently made public ? Its recommen- dations are all in an opposite direction, its framers evidently wishing to restore and reform, and not to destroy. Some of their recommendations may, possi- bly, be open to question:; but, viewing the report as a whole, we can wish nothing better than to see it car- ried out ; while the very existence of it, we hope, will put a stop once for all to such crude and ill-digested schemes as those which Lord BLANDFORD has so perseveringly brought before the Legislature. But the part of the report which has afforded us most pleasure, is that in which the Commissioners re- commend the foundation of twelve additional sees: few enough for the wants of the Church, which could well find occupation for four times the existing number of Bishops; but, what a contrast with the recommen- dations of the old Commission ! We will not quarrel about seats in the Upper House, if only we can obtain this addition to the Episcopate : nay, sooner than not obtain it, we would be content to see the Lords Spi- ritual removed from that august assembly in a body. Already we see it asserted in the public prints, with what truth we know not, that measures are on foot for founding four of the twelve new sees ; and we fer- vently hope, that no impediment may be thrown iu the way upon the score of its being difficult to provide palaces and lordly incomes. We do not consider that any of our Bishops are overpaid, though some may be over-housed ; but we should be sorry, indeed, that the Church should lose the advantages which are cer- tain to accrue to her from an increase in their num- bers, merely because it may not be possible to pay the additional ones equally well. QUEEN'S LETTERS AND THE CHURCH SOCIETIES. AN influence, which no one can doubt is adverse to the Church of England, has been at work, as our readers are probably aware, to cause three of our Church Societies to be deprived of that portion of their incomes-which was collected under the authority of what are known as Queen's Letters. 'The societies in whose favour these documents were alternately issued are, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in 'Foreign Parts, the National School Society, and the Church Building Society ; and, as we have already maintained with regard to the' second of these, so now we fearlessly assert of the other two, that they know no party but the Church, and are, therefore, worthy of the warmest support of all the Church's children. 'The first of these, we believe, affected by the refusal to issue the usual Queen's Letter, is that for Church Buildilig:—But how- is it to be affected ? Once in three years the SOVEREIGN, through the Archbishops and Bishops, has required a collection to be made in its behalf; and the amount received has varied from about twenty-four "to-thirty thousand pounds, which, divided into three, has afforded an addition to its funds of from eight to ten thousand a year, the other two societies realising about an equal sum. We recollect, some years ago, that the Times, in consequence of a dispute between its then-proprietor and the Incumbent of the parish in which he resided, endeavoured to prove the illegality of Church collections, unless made under the Queen's authority ; and, possibly, those who have brought about the refusal of this authority may en- deavour to revive this point, and hinder the Church to do for herself what others refuse to do for her. How- ever, many and bitter as are the Church's foes, the temper of the times would hardly, we think, support any attempt of this kind, and, therefore, we will not anticipate it. The problem is, how to raise an annual sum of some twenty-eight thousand pounds, in order that these three societies may not suffer, nor their work be impeded. And, surely, there ought to be no diffi- culty in this. It would only amount to au average of two pounds for each of our congregations ; and what we fear is, not want of ability upon the Church's part to raise this sum) a mere drop in the bucket compared with the wealth of Christian England, but, that some of the clergy through forgetfulness, some through procrastination, and others through lukewarmness, will allow the year to slip away without making the necessary effort. We would fain hope that the bishops will.do something in the matter. A united pastoral from them would, we believe, be even more efficacious than a Queen's letter, and certainly far more satisfac- tory in principle. And, if this be found to be imprac- ticable, there is no reason why each bishop should not address the clergy of his own diocese : and, even if some of the: n should decline to take this course, we see not what is to hinder each clergyman addressing his own flock. We are satisfied that, if the right steps are taken, the societies will not only not be injuriously affected by the hostility of the 1-ten at present in power, but their incomes will be increased, and their means of usefulness extended. _ Of the hostility of certain persons to the National Society we have, on two previous occasions, written

COJIMERCIAL and MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT. LITTLE has occurred during the week to dis- turb the quietude, or rather stagnation, which has prevailed ; and notwithstand'ng the few accounts from the Crimea since the repulse of the 18th of June, the demand for investments on the part of the public has served to keep .up the price of the Public Funds at a time when circumstances might have otherwise had a depressing effect. There is the new French loan of £30,000,000, which has just received the sanction of the French Chambers ; and the French Government has also consented to guarantee a Turkish loan of £5,000,000. Money is, however, abundant, and the rate of discount on first-class paper is still below the minimum rate fixed by the Bank of England. The returns on Friday show a decrease in the stock of Bullion to the extent of £150,451 as compared with the previous week, and a diminution of the reserve of unemployed Notes to the amount of £747,785, arising from an increase of discounts, as shown in the aug- mentation of " other securities," by £643,486, and the increase of Notes in circulation, £623,420. Foreign Exchanges are, on the whole, favourable, though Gold, in moderate quantities, continues to be :sent to Paris. The arrivals of specie during the week have been large, but are more than balanced by the exports. The total imports amount to nearly £450,000, and the shipments are estimated at about £700,000, of which £5OO was in silver. The gold by the last vessels from Australia having been deliverable at once, some por- tion has found its way into the Bank ; but, had the delivery been spread over four or five days, the pro- bability is that all would have been sent abroad. The shipping returns of the Board of Trade for the month ending the 31st of May have been issued, and exhibit a large increase in the general employment of foreign vessels ENTERED INWARD. 1854. 1855. British vessels 407,416 403,071 Foreign ditto CLEARED OUTWARD. British vessels 428,816 482,132 Foreign ditto With 'regard to the coasting trade, the tonnage entered inward, in 1854, was 1,126;381; and in the present- return it is 1,078,467. The clearances out- ward were 1,141,877 tons in 1854, ,and 1,176,022 in 185& Returns printed on Wednesday 'give an account of 'the imports and exports of iron 'in the years 1853 and 1854. The quantities of foreign iron imported into •the United Kingdom in 1854 were as follows,namely:— Iron ore, 851 tons ; chromate of iron, 2,670 tons ; pig iron, 898 tons ; bar iron, unwrought, 41,745 tons; iron wire, 70 tons; iron bloom, 762 tons ; iron slit or hammered into rods, 53 'tons ; old, broken, and cast iron, 751 tons ; iron hoops, 26 tons ; cast iron, 52 tons; unwrought steal, 1,408 tons ; steel scrap, 226 tons ; wrought iron and steel manufacturers, 15,458 tons.; and fancy ornamental articles of iron and steel, 323 tons. The quantity of foreign iron exported was 27 tons of chromate •of iron, 4,351 tons of iron in bars, unwrought, 3,340 tons of unwrought steel, and 3,810 tons of iron and •steel •machinery and manufacturers. The quantity of British iron exported in 1854 was as follows, namely-:-393,432 tons of pig iron, '604,662 tons of bar •iron, 12;055 tons of bolt and 'rod iron, 69,438 tons •of cast iron, 7,937 tons of 'iron wire, 26,084 tons of •anchors and grapnels, 30,709 tons of hoops, 8,•141 tons of -nails, 111,249 tons of .other sorts (except,ordnance),l2,242 tons of:old iron, ‘and 20,793 tons of unwrought steel. The quantity of British hardware and cutlery exported from the United Kingdom:in 1854 amounted to 32,054 tons, and the declared value to £3,867,598. In 1854 'the quantity was 82,375 tons; and the value was £3,665,051. The return from the Bank of England for the week ending the 30th, of -June gives the following results, when compared with the previous week : Pablic Deposits ... £6,146,999; Decrease ... £339,689 Other Deposits ... 13,474,749; Increase ... 210,279 Rest 3,140,067 ; Increase ... 13,788 On the other side of the account : Government Securities.. £12,896,068, Unchanged. Other Securities .. 13,497,443; Increase ... 643,486 Notes unemployed 11,139,525; Increase ... 747,786 " The amount of notes in circulation is £20,165,545, being an increase of £623,420, • and the stock 'of bullion in both departments is £18,018,575, shoWing .a decrease of £150,451, when compared with the I:preceding return.

FRIDAY. The Dwelling Houses (Scotland) Bill was passed. New Writs were ordered for Cheltenham, in the room of the Hon. Craven Fitzhardinge Berkeley, deceased. For Evesham, in the room of the Hon. Chas. Lennox Grenville Berkeley, who had accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. LORD DIINDONALD'S SCHEME.—In answer to a question, Sir C. WOOD said, that the plan was referred to a committee, and was so very obvious that it required no explanation on the part of the Earl of Dundonald to render it perfectly intelligible. THE Mors rsr HYDE PARR.—In reply to a question whether it was the intention of the Government to grant an inquiry into the conduct of the police in Hyde Park on Sunday last, Sir G. GREY repeated what he had said on Thursday, that in the case of any specific complaint of the conduct of the police he should feel it to be his duty to institute a strict inquiry. He had received a very large number of representations on the subject, some of them complaining of the misbehaviour of the police, others describing their conduct as marked by modera- tion and forbearance. Facilities were afforded for remedy against the misconduct of the .police ; at the same time, he was willing to institute a searching investigation into any allegations brought before him.—A conversation ensued, in the course of which Mr. G. DIINDAS said 3—SO we are threatened with another demonstration next Sunday, and men are to go armed in order to defy the authority of the police ! I hope that the right hon. baronet will take efficient means to prevent any such collision. I may remind the right hon. baronet that prevention is better than cure, and I will go further, and say that nothing will frighten a mob more than the crash upon the pavement of the trail of a 6-pounder. (Cries of " Oh, and some sensation.) The subject shortly aftfirwards dropped, but was subsequently resumed by Mr. ROEBUCR calling the attention of the Chair to language employed by Mr. G. Dundas, which he character- ised as unworthy of an English gentleman, and of the house to listen to.—The SPEAKER ruled that the language excepted to should have been noticed immediately.—Mr. G. DIINDAS ex- plained the meaning he intended to convey by the expressions he had used. MAILS TO AtrI3TRALSA.—In reply to Sir J. PAKINSTON, Mr. WILSON stated that the arrangement made for the con- veyance of the mails to Australia by way of the Cape of Good. Hope had been abandoned, but that the contract for the con- veyance of a mail by way of India every other month was merely suspended in consequence of the Peninsular and Ori- ental Steampacket Company being unable to procure vessels to replace those on Government service in the Black Sea. A proposal had been made by the Admiralty to that company 'at the request of the Treasury, to convey the mails by way of India to Australia every month, but the company were wait- ing the return of some of their vessels before giving a reply to Government. Questions and answers on various subjects of like impor- tance were exchanged. MAcinsEßy.—A motion for the production of correspon- dence between the Secretary of State for the Home Depart- ment and certain magistrates of Oldham, on the subject of'a prosecution before the said magistrates of a manufacturer for having on his premises unfenced machinery, from which neglect the death of an individual resulted, was, after some discussion, agreed to. ME VIENNA, CONFERENCE.—Mr. M. Guisori asked for ex- planation from the Government relative to the opposition of her Majesty's ministers to the views of their colleague, the late British plenipotentiary at the Vienna Conferences, in reference to the plan proposed by Austria to be submitted to Russia for the purpose of putting an end to Russian pre- iponderance in the Black Sea,"• as stated in the circular addressed by Count Buol to the diplomatic agents of Austria, dated Vienna, May 25. He -read a passage from Count Buol's circular, and expressed his belief that Lord J. Russell went to Vienna with a tone fide intention to make an honourable peace ; but that his col- leagues appeared to have entertained different views, and to have desired to avoid the chance of peace. How ,coald he, then, reconcile the retention of office with the statements he had declared at Viennai If he had changed his opinion, let him frankly avow It. 'He cautioned the First Minister that a day of retribution would come ; the Administration had, he said, sacrificed thetilower of the British army, as well as millions of the public money ; they had concealed from Parlia- ment facts material to guide its opinion, and the .course they had taken was calculated to bring great disasters -upon the country, which would visit them upon their heads.— Lord J. RDSSELL referred in detail to the consultations at the Congress respecting-the mode of solving the third point, in which Count Buol admitted, he said, that the test mode was to obtain from Russia limitation of her 'force in the Black Sea; but he suggested that there was another mode—that of strengthening Turkey, instead of weakening Russia. Ulti- mately he proposed that there should be a stipulation for a counterpoise of forces,,wbereby, if Ruisia increased her naval power in the Black Sea beyond its then dimensions, England, France, Austria, and Turkey might augment theirs in propor- tion ; and, further, that there should be a treaty by which Austria, Great Britain, and France guaranteed the indepen- dence and integrity of Turkey, Russia being -made .a party to that guarantee. It appeared to him that these provisions did contain a-security for Turkey, and he had not •changed his opinion. The Austrian Government had offered to send to Russia the alternative either to consent to this •proposition, or to .limit her naval power in the Black Sea, and that, if Russia refused, it should be considered a casus 'Belli. His honourable colleagues in her Majesty's government, however,• came to the conclusion that the proposition did not afford a safe basis for further negotiation. To the question why, after this, he remained a member of the Administration, he replied'that if he had left office on this decision be should not have acted consistently with the rule which had always 'guided hiseonduct ; and.that, whatever might be his senti- ments upon this great question, he thought it to be his duty to continuelis support to the present head ofthe cabinet, and not, by • quitting office, weaken its stability.—Mr. COBDEN expressed his grief . and surprise at the speech of Lord J. Russell. The complaint was that when he returned from Vienna he promised to do his best to induce the government to agree to a proposition Which he approved, and that he had not informed the house that the terms submitted by Austria had his approval. Instead of telling the house frankly .what was his opinion as to the great question of peace or war, he had made speeches denouncing the en- croachments of Russia, the effect of which was to make the country believe that he had come from Vienna despairing of any terms of•peace, while he knew right well that he had come back bringing a proposition which he had told Count Buol he would advocate in his Cabinet. Lord John had, ,he ,con- sidered, abandoned his trust by not resigning office when he found he could not carry out hisviews, and he looketimpon his conduct with the more regret from the danger to which 'his example exposed-the cause of representative government. He advised the house not to be frightened at the prospect of .a change of ministry.; he woukl infinitely prefer that the other -aide should be in power, and he looked with regret at the .vote he had given ,which • displaced the ministry of lord Derby, a change which had cost the country, in his opinion, 100 millions of money and thousands of lives.—Lord -.WESTON defended -the conduct of Lord J. Russell and the course taken by him, and, with reference to the proposal of Austria, the governments of England and France had given :twit their most anxiousand earnest consideration, and hadde- ,eided, not hastily or upon light grounds, that it did not furnish -that real security for peace for which they were bound to look. He reviewed the transactions,of the wanon the Danube, in the Baltic, and in the Black Sea, and in the Sea of Azoff, observ- ing that the result was that the territory of our ally had been evacuated, and we occupied an important position in that of Russia. With regard to the regret expressed by Mr. Cobden that the government was not in .other hands, he felt assured, he said, that the country :would support no Administration that would not carry on the war with vigour and conduct it to a successful issue.—Mr.Ronnuoirobserved that there were two matters involved in this discussion—one the character and conduct of Lord J. Russell, the other the wisdom of the war. On the first he concurred with Mr. Gibson and Mr. Cobden ; on second, he agreed with Lord Palmerston. He examined the conduct of Lord John Russell in relation 'to the Aus- trian proposal, considering it to be inconsistent with the perfect honesty of a public man.—Mr. Dans= said that evening would be memorable for the unex- .ampled revelation made by Lord J. Russell, who had ad- mitted that, employed in the high position of Minister Pleni- potentiary to negotiate on the subject of peace or war, and having arrved at a solution of the difficulty, and accomplished a result that would secure peace to the country, he returned to England, and, strange to say, finding no sympathy on the part of his colleagues, who determined upon the prosecution of a war which, in his opinion, ought to have terminated, ac- ceded to their suggestions, and remained, in a Cahinet of War, a Minister of Peace. The reasons he had given for this ex- traordinary course were no less singular than the course itself. The country, however, ought to consider the vital question, whether we were to have peace or war; the question ought not to be an open one in the Cabinet, which, , in either `case, ought to be unanimous, or there could be no chance of vigour or efficient action. The effect of that night's debate would have an evil tendency. The impression in the Cabinets of the continent, however, must have been that when our Plenipotentiary accepted the Austrian pro- position he represented the mind and policy of his own Ca- binet. Why did not his colleagues ratify his labours P When a minister of the cabinet was sent to negotiate a peace, and succeeded, and, although his labours were not ratified, remained in the cabinet, the house had a right to expect from a govern- ment so situated a frank explanation of the reasons which in- duced them not to accept the result of his labours. Mr, Dis- RAELI concluded by saying:—"And this is the end of this im- portant session—this is the end of breaking up so many governments—this is the end of your great national intentions, great national disasters—this is the end of the government, at the head of which you were to have a minister of surpassing energy, and, no doubt, transcendant experience—this is the end of the ministry which was to put the right men in the right places—this is the end, that even peace and war have become mere party considerations,that the interests of the coun- try are sacrificed to the menace of a majority, and that the tumults and turbulent assemblies of Downing-street are to baffle all the sagacity of all the conferences of Vienna."- -Sir G. GREY complained of the erroneous construction put by Mr. Disraeli upon the statement of Lord John Russell, who had not said, as had been assumed, that he had brought over a proposal assented to by Russia; on the contrary, the principle of that proposal, involving a limitation of the naval power of Russia in the Black Sea, Russia had declared she would never accede to. He denied that the Cabinet was a divided one. They were unanimous in considering the war just and necessary, and in the prosecution of it they were a united Cabinet. The house then went into a Committee of Supply, but the chairman immediately reported progress. The Merchant Shipping Act Amendment Bill went through committee, with some unimportant amendments. The Bills of Lading (No. 2) bill, the Endowed Schools (Ire- land) bill, and the West Indies Relief Loans Arrangement bill were read a third time and passed. rt ne gms The house went into committee on the Gold Wedding-Rings tbhilel,sttahme opbwjechticohf had whicbheewnasintvreesrttoerneutyo rgemolodvedwedfrodinmg by a clause introduced into a bill of last session. The Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Continance bill, and the Commons Enclosure (No. 2) bill, also passed through com- mittee. STAGE CARRIAGES AND BUILDING SOCIETIES.—The report of the resolutions agreed to in committee were brought up. The first reduced the mileage duty to ld., and the sup- plemental license to ls. ; the second authorised the stamping of paper for the covers or envelopes of letters ; the third re- lated to stamps on orders for the payment of prize or bounty money ; and the fourth was as follows :—" That no exemption from stamp duty contained in or granted by any act relating to friendly societies, nor any other exemption from stamp duty than such as is contained in section 8 of the act 6th and 7th of Wm. IV., chap. 32, for the regulation of benefit building societies, shall be deemed to extend to any form of assurance, or any conveyance, mortgage, transfer, agreement, bond, or other instrument made to or on behalf of any benefit building society by any member of such society to whom any sum or sums exceeding in the whole the sum of £240 shall be ad- vanced by such society, except such deeds or instruments as may be made on behalf of a member of such society admitted before the 6th day of July, 1866, in pursuance of engagements made between such member and the said society before that date." The latter was opposed by several members, but on a division was carried by 67 to 41. The house adjourned at half-past one o'clock. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE ATLANTIC. BY the United States Mail steamship Atlantic, Captain West, which arrived on Sunday morning, we have intelligence from New York to the 27th ult. The Atlantic brought $BOO,OOO in specie, and 231 passengers, amongst whom were Sir Allan Macnab, Prime Minister of Canada, and family. The United States steam•ship Baltic, hence, arrived out on the 27th ult. The steam-ship Ariel, from Havre, on the 19th ult., had arrived at New York. _ _ Thirteen deaths had occurred on board the ship George Hurlbut, from Antwerp to New York, and five on board of the ship Calhoun, hence at that port, all infants. Jermoine Hernes, charged with taking an African boy into the port of New York for the purpose of making a slave of him, had been examined at the United States District Attor- ney's office, and held to bail to answer the charge in twenty thousand dollars. Favourable accounts continue to be received in reference to the growing and ripening crops. The Canada, the first of the Great Western Railway steam- ers, arrived at Oswego, on the 26th ultimo, from Hamilton and Toronto. The Elmira Republican reports the elopement of a clerical gentleman with the wife of a gentleman residing at Birch Creek, whose hospitality he had shared, and thus abused. The treaty of the United States with 'Japan has been rati- fied. Commander Adams, of the United States navy, the bearer of the document of ratification, states that the people of Japan express great anxiety for the arrival of American ships. A terrible row had occurred on board of the ship William Stetson, bound from New York to Quebec. The first, second, and third mates, assisted by the cook and steward, attacked the crew, and the crew defended themselves with some effect. Some of the parties jumped overboard, and were with difficulty saved. An officer was despatched from the Mayor's office, for the purpose of arresting the aggressors, but the ship had sailed before his arrival. Two runaway slaves were discovered on board an English ship, bound from New Orleans to Liverpool, a short time after leaving port, and the captain caused a signal to be hoisted and had the negroes sent back to the city. The work for the next Presidential election had seriously commenced between the three parties who were anxious for the succession. The champion of the American party is George Law, of New York ; the Seward Coalition party, W. H. Seward, of New York ; the Democratic party, Henry A. Wise, of Virginia. The Know-Nothings of Baltimore, Washington, and Easton, Pa., had held large and enthusiastic meetings, and had adopted the Philadelphia platform. Notice had been given in the lower branch of the New Hampshire Legislature of an intention to introduce a Personal Liberty Bill. The Herald presumes it will be identical with the act nullifying the Fugi- tive Slave Law passed by the Legislature of Massachusetts at its last session. The vote of all the counties on the Prohibitory Liquor Law of Illinois had been received, and showed a majo- rity against the law of 14,060 votes. The Supreme Court of New York, in full bench, had decided that the New-Haven Railroad Company is bound by the acts of its late agent, Schuyler, and is liable for the fraudulent stock issued by him. Mr. Charles H. Stanley, of the British Consulate of New York, had been arrested, and placed under one thousand dollars bond, to answer a charge of enlisting recruits for the Crimea. CALIFORNIA.—By the arrival at New York of the Star of the West, from San Juan, with $626,306, and the George Law, from Aspinwall, with $1,052,287, we have advices from Cali- fornia to the 2nd June. Those from the interior give glowing descriptions of the country and the general prosperity of the various branches of industry, particularly mining. The cre- ditors and time certificate holders of the late banking house of Page, Bacon and Co., had held several meetings relative to the refusal of Mr. D. Page to make the parties whole who came forward to sustain the house at the time of its first suspension. After some delay, at a meeting on the 29th of May, Mr. C. K. Garrison came forward and pledged his property to the amount of s4oopoo in support of the house by way of securing the creditors and staying all further legal proceedings. This pro- position is said to have given general satisfaction. The affairs of Adams and Co. were undergoing investigation in the courts, and it had been decided that bankers were not entitled to the benefit ofp the insolvent law. THE L'Echo du Pacifigue estimates the strength of the allied forces in the Indian and Chinese seas at not less than fifteen sailing vessels and steamers, of which four are fifty gun frigates ; and hopes to recount in the course of three mouths the happy result of the Pacific campaign, for the success of which prompt and skilful dispositions have been made. From the South Pacific the dates are :—Valpa- raiso, May 14 ; and Callao, May 24. The Executive had issued two important decrees relative to the manning of merchantmen with foreign and Chilian sailors. Quiet reigned at Copiapo. In Peru people were rather opposed to the idea of a general toleration of religion. The ministerial party had triumphed at the elections, and general Castilla was likely to be declared President. The Valparaiso market had slightly improved. MExico.—The almost universal spread of an organised rebellion against Santa Anna's authority is reported. The city of Monterey had surrended to the insurgents, and General Cardona, its commander, with his men, had been taken prisoners of war. General Antonio Jaureguin had been invested with chief power by the victors, and he immediately marched on. Saltillo. The whole of Coahuila was enwrapped in the flame of insurrection, and the troops stationed at Tamaulipas had revolted. Santa Anna's forces were being concentrated at Carmargo, on the Rio Grande, in, order to keep the communication with Matamoras open, but his power was evidently ,en the decline. Matamoras and all the country of Tamaulipas were declared in a state of siege. The crops on the Rio Grande look well. CENTRAL AMERICA.—The Executive of New Granada had ceded the island of Manzanilla to the railroad company. Mr. Tracy, head carpenter employed in repairing the steamship Golden Age, had been murdered at Tobago, by three negroes, who were summarily executed by the populace. This vessel had made a trial-trip since her accident which was satisfactory. Advises from Granada report that the St. Mary's had been ordered to Rsalejo, in order to prevent the landing of Colonel Walker. Colonel Kinney was looked for hourly. By way of New Granada we learn that, notwitlistanding the Government blockade of the steamer United States on the East River, six hundred of Colonel Kinney's colonists left New York on the 19th of May for San Juan del Norte. It is reported as likely that they have already effected a junction with three hundred sympathisers from California, after a march to the interior of Nicaragua. Advices from Curacoa, in Venezuela, state that the Mona- gas dynasty was in a critical position, and likely to break down „soon. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, June 26th. MONEY continued very abundant and easy of access, at the low rates current for some time past. In exchange bills on Europe were on the increase, and the market assumed a down- ward tendency. We quote London, lost to 1104; Paris, 5.12 to 5.15 ; Amsterdam, 414 to 414; Hamburg, 364 to 361 ; Bremen, 791 to 794. COTEON.—The market (says the New York Shipping List, of June 27) had been very quiet, all parties being desirous of receiving later advices before operating to any extent. The sales had been of a trifling character, consisting of supplies in the hands of weak parties, who were forced to yield a decline in order to realise. The few transactions that had taken place had reduced prices fully 4c. The late rains at the south had not increased the southern rivers sufficiently to realise any quantity of cotton from the interior, and it is now certain that a large amount will be unavailable until next season.

RECRUITING .FOR THE ARMY. THE check which was given to recruiting for the army, by the many harrowing details which were pub- lished of the sufferings and privations endured by the army in the Crimea through the winter, has never been thoroughly got over. When the war broke out, and a call was made for men to serve against the Russians, the spirit of enthusiasm knew no bounds, and the difficulty experienced by those engaged in recruiting referred more to selecting the best men among the numerous applicants than in inducing men to offer their services. Even when the news arrived of the great victory at Alma, and subsequently at Balaklava and Inkerman, the long lists of killed and wounded seemed to operate rather as stimulants than other- wise, and applicants for admission to the army were more numerous than ever. When, however, it became known that, through official mismanagement, our soldiers were subject to dangers not inflicted by the enemy, and that more perished from such causes than those who fell in the battle-field, the desire for enlist- ing rapidly diminished. The risk of death had to be encountered with little probability of military glory, and those who hesitated not to meet it at the hand of the enemy, shrank from the encounter with cold, hunger, and neglect. Since then recruiting has been in some measure promoted by increasing from time to time the amount of bounty, but it has not reached the requirements of the service, and more men are still wanted to render efficient the many regiments reduced to skeletons. In order to attain this object, Lord PANUIIRE, the Minister of War, announced, a short time since, that the Government had resolved to give double pay, or an additional shilling a day, to every private soldier actually serving, to commence from the time of his landing in the Crimea. The extra money was not, however, to be paid to him, but invested in the Savings' Bank, for his benefit, until the conclusion of his tervice, or 'be paid to his representatives in the event of his death. It has, however, been judged, on subsequent consideration, that this prospective advan- ,tage, would not be .suffieiently appreciated, and a mo-

The public are deceived by comparisons being made between the prices of the latter superb class of Milners' Safes and the inferior articles offered by incompetent makers to booksellers, ironmon- gers, brokers, or any others who will incur the serious responsibi- lity of selling them, which are really worthless articles, and dear at any price. What greater delusion than an unsafe Safe? SHOW ROOMS, 6 and 8, LORD-STREET, LIVERPOOL. LONDON DEPOT, 47a, NIOORGATE-STREET, CITY.

Mr. E.'s long practice in the above Art has resulted in the pro- duction of Portraits as much superior to the ordinary Photograph as the leading artist is to the street miniature painter.

The Packet of the 20th July, carrying the Mails of that date will be the splendid Clipper-ship SHALIMAR, 1,405 tons register, 3,500 tons burthen, Captain A. ROBERTSON. This magnificent ship is just off her first voyage to the Colo- nies ; on the passage out and home she far exceeded the expecta- tions formed of her sailing qualities. She made the run from the Mersey to Cape Northumberland, within a day's sail of Hob. son's Bay, in the remarkably short space of 67 days, under rather unfavourable circumstances ; she attained, however, the high 'speed of 420 nautical miles in one day. The entire voyage was made in 6 months and 14 days, including detention of 43 clays abroad. All her passengers were landed in perfect health ; and a testimonial was presented to Captain Robertson for his urbanity and attention during the passage. The SHALIMAR will be refitted, and whatever experience has suggested as desirable to promote the c•imfort of the Emigrants in the voyage will be introduced. The ventilation in this ship is essentially perfect, an element in the fitting-up of a passenger- -ship wain cannot be too highly appreciated. .Carry Surgeons and Chaplains, also an extensive Library.

PATRONS AND SUPPORTERS THE MERCHANTS AND SHIPOWNERS OF LIVERPOOL. Liverpool being now the first port of embarka- tion in the world, it has been thought advisable to 4411. establish a company for the express purpose of giv- j ing the intending emigrant to the British Colonies in Australia and Canada, and to the United States of ei:icaa (but more especially to stralia), such gratuitous in- formation as is requisite to obtain a cheap and agreeable voyage, and to promote his safety and success on his arrival. To this end a regular register will be kept at the Company's Offices of all Emigrant Ships of character leaving Liverpool, to- gether with the correct time of sailing, the scale of charge, &c., and the latest time for the emigrant leaving his home. Another register will contain a list of respectable hotels and lodging-houses, with their scale of charges, and the addresses of tradesmen from whom the emigrant may obtain his outfit of ne- cessary articles at moderate prices. As none but ships, hotels, and tradesmen of undoubted cha- racter can obtain an entry on the Company's Register, it is con- fidently and earnestly hoped that the emigrant will firmly with- stand every attempt through other means to induce him to engage his passage, or pay a deposit, before his arrival at the Company's Offices in Liverpool, where he is certain to gain that knowledge, free of charge, which will effectually shield him against the impo- sitions to which he is unavoidably exposed. Emigrants should give the company a week's notice at least of the time of their departure for Liverpool, and their mode of tra- velling, when its servants will be in attendance to receive them and their luggage. As the company is supported by its patrons, no servant is al- lowed to receive fees of any kind on pain of dismissal. Attendance at the Chief Offices, Liverpool, from Ten to Five daily. Ali applications attended to gratuitously. Letters per post, with postage stamp enclosed, must be addressed to " The Secretary of the Emigrants' Advice and Protection Company, Liverpool." W. WHITEHOUSE, Secretary.

J. P. WARD, late curate of Much Woolton, near Liverpool, and formerly of Leeds and Skipton, has been ap- pointed vicar of St. John's, Holbeck. A GREAT ECCLESIASTICAL SALE by auction, involving the religious teaching of no fewer than 48,000 people, is an- nounced to take place early in the present month. The pro- perty that is to come to the hammer is the rectory of Stock- port. According to the Clergy List, the property thus offered for sale belongs to Lord Vernon.— Globe. SIR CULLING EARDLEY, a wealthy meddling baronet, who wishes to keep one foot in the church and one in the meeting- house, and who is a promOter of " free churches" without bishops, has been attempting to get admitted into Oriel-Col- lege, without submitting to the discipline required of-Church- men, and without acknowledging himself to be anything else than a Churchmen. Dr. Hawkins, the Provost, tells him, "One, of the two—churchman or dissenter—you must be, and not both at once." Sir Culling, like some others in the pre.. sent day, wants to be both, by turn, when it suits his purpose. —English Churchman. UNION OF CONTIGUOUS BENEFICES.—A bill brought from the Lords (July 2) enacts that contiguous benefices may be united under this act, without regard to aggregate population or yearly value. On the representation of the inhabitants of any small parish that their benefice might be advantageously united, the bishop of the diocess will inquire into the circum- stances of the case, and submit a certified statement to the Church Building Commissioners.' These latter may propose a scheme for the transfer of surplus revenues to poor parishes. Protests against the scheme may be made, and these are to be referred to the Judicial Committee, of whom the archbishops and bishops, members of the Privy Council, are to form part for the purposes of this act. The Queen in Council is empow- ered to make orders approving every such scheme. The Church Building Commissioners may also propose schemes for the erection of new churches or parsonages, the removal of old churches or parsonages, the sale of sites, &c. No burial- ground or site of church wholly surrounded by a grave-yard is to be sold. The Bishop of London is empowered to set apart one of the churches in London, otherwise to be pulled down, for service in Welsh. The sites of the churches to be pulled down are to be vested in the Church Building Commissioners. This bill will tend to promote the proposed removal of some of the old city churches. WEST INDIES.--The following is an interesting extract of a letter dated St. John's, Antigua, March 27, 1855 :—" We had a Confirmation in our cathedral a few days ago, and I never witnessed a service more solemnly and impressively performed. The candidates were few—only eight ; conse- quently we had none of that tumult and excitement which ever accompany the service at home, arising from the large number of persons brought together. Our Bishop prefers holding frequent Confirmations, and in each church, as occasion may require. Might not our Bishops at home adopt this plan ; even though it should impose upon them additional labour ? The benefit to the confirmed would be great, and one of our most solemn and important services would be relieved of a character which does not belong to it, but which nullifies almost all the good of it. On the present occasion the candidates, both male and female, came dressed in white, a custom which is also adopted by the females at our monthly Communions, and which has a most pleasing effect. Seats were provided for them near the chancel rails, and the Bishop delivered a most impressive extempore address, taking as the ground of his observations the Preface to the Confirmation ; and after the rite of Confirmation was administered, made some further remarks most suitable to the position of those just confirmed. Coming fresh from home, I was much struck with the favourable contrast of the circumstances attending the solemn rite as administered here. And, indeed, I must say that the beauty of all our Church's services is more fully seen in the manner in which they are conducted in this colony." ST. AIDAN'S THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE, BIRKENHEAD.

THE LATE LORD RAGLAN. The following general order, with reference to the late Lord Raglan, has been issued : HORSE GUARDS, July 4, 1855. The General Commanding in Chief has received Her Majesty's most gracious commands to express to the army the deep regret with which Her Majesty has to deplore the loss of a most devoted and able officer, by the death of Field-Marshal Lord Raglan, the Commander of the Forces in the Crimea. Her Majesty has been pleased to command that her senti- ments shall be communicated to the army, in order that the military career of so illustrious an officer shall be recorded, not only as an honourable testimony of Her Majesty's sense of his eminent services, and the respect due to his memory, but as an example worthy of imitation by all ranks of her army. Selected by the Duke of Wellington to be his military se- cretary and aide-de-camp, he took part, nearly 50 years ago, in all the military achievements of our greatest commander. From him Lord Raglan adopted as the guiding principle of his life a constant undeviating obedience to the call of duty. During a long peace, his life was most usefully employed in those unwearied attentions to the interests and welfare of the army, shown by the kindness, the impartiality, and justice with which he transacted all his duties. When war broke out last year, he was selected by his sovereign to take the command of ie army proceeding to the East : he never hesitated, he obeyed the summons, although he had reached an age when an officer may be disposed to retire from active duties in the field. At the head of the troops during the arduous operations of the campaign he resumed the early habits of his life;, by his calmness in the hottest moments of battle, and by his quick perception in taking advantage of the ground or the move- ments of the enemy he won the confidence of his army, and performed great and brilliant services. In the midst of a winter's campaign, in a severe climate, and surrounded by difficulties, he never despaired. The heroic army, whose fortitude amidst the severest priva- tions is recognized by her Majesty as beyond all praise, have shown their attachment to • their commander by the deep regret with which they now mourn his loss. Her Majesty is confident* what the talents and virtues which distinguished Lord Raglan throughout the whole of his valuable life will for ever endear his memory to the British army. By command of the Right Hon. General Viscount Hardinge, Commanding in Chief, _ _ G.A. WETHERALL, Adjutant-General.

CERTIFICATE FROM DR. GA.TTIKER.—The renowned Dr. Gattiker, of Zurich, has effected the most successful cure of can- cer of the stomach without medicine ; the learned Dr. writes as follows :—Zurich, 3rd Sep., 1853.-3 have tried Du Barry's Reva- lenta Arabica for a complaint which has hitherto resisted all other remedies—viz.: Cancer of the Stomach ; and I ham nappy to say with the most successful result. This soothing remedy has the effect not only of arresting the vomiting, which is so fearfully dis- tressing in cancer of the stomach, but also of restoring perfect digestion and assimilation. The same satisfactory influence of this exceltent remedy I have found in all complaints of the diges- tive organs ; it has also proved effectual in a most obstinate case of flatulence and colic of many years standing. I look upon this delicious food as the most excel ent restorative gift of nature—Dr. Gattiker. More ample details about this valuable discovery than we have rocrc. f.)r will 11e f,:ur.:l in Me,isrs.

at some length, and shown it to be in reality causeless ; but even they, we should suppose, can hardly object to give their aid in raising a sum equal to that which resulted from the Queen's letter, inasmuch as that sum was devoted entirely to grants in aid of school- buliding. They may, absurdly enough, make the ap- pointment of a particular master, or the maintenance of a choral service, a ground for withdrawing their subscriptions to the general fund of the society, but hardly for refusing to assist in collecting money which is to be devoted exclusively to bricks and mortar. Against the Church Building Society we are not aware that any ill-feelinglias been expressed, but against that for the Pro- pagation of the Gospel the most unjust and reckless charges have been perseveringly urged. It is now in the 155th year of its existence, and has just celebrated its anniversaryfestival within the walls of St. Paul's Cathe- dral. At that festival men like the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, the Bishops of LONDON, WINCHESTER, OXFORD, HEREFORD, ST. ASAPH, and MEATH, were found side by side ; while at the meeting at the Man- sion-house the Bishop of MELBOURNE was not only present, but spoke in support of the Society. At the meeting at Willis's Rooms, the Archbishop of CAN- TERBURY took the chair. These facts need no com- ment. They prove that the Society is indeed no mere party affair, but a Church society; and as such we trust it will be supported when the year comes round in which it would have received the collections resulting from a QUEEN'S letter, had not the usage of the last thirty years been causelessly interrupted. FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. MONDAY I'vfOßNlNfl. TILE parliamentary proceedings of the past week have been marked by peculiarities of very opposite character. Both branches of the Legislature, in obedience to the expressed wishes of the Crown, and in perfect accordance with the national feeling, have been engaged in recording the national sense of the great and valuable services of the late Lord RAGLAN, and accompanying that testimony by making some provision for those who were near and dear to the late com- mander of our armies in the Crimea. A proper degree of unanimity on this important subject was displayed by both houses ; and the attempt of Mr. GIBSON to foist some of his crude theoriei into a consideration of the claims of the hero was properly repelled by the House of Commons-. A resolu- tion was unanimously adopted by both houses, recommending a pension of £l,OOO per annum to Lady RAGLAN during her life, and to date from the 2nd of the present month ; and also another annuity of £2,000 a-year to his Lordship's successor, the present Lord RAGLAN and his heir, was also adopted with the same unanimity. In recommending the adoption of this course, Lord PAN3IURE, Lord HARDINGE, the Duke of COT., BRIDGE, the Earl of CARDIGAN., Lord BROUGRAM, the Earl of DERBY, and other peers, vied with each other in bearing testimony to the great merits of the gallant gxneral, whose. military virtues they severally extolled, while they also bore- witness to his numerous personal excellences. In the House of Commons, the same course of emulation, in lauding the. memory of the deceased, was observed by Lord P2ensrzusTiolf, Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Sir DE LACY EVANS; Admiral WAL- COTT, and Mr. DISRAELI, the latter tastefully remarking:that " half a century of public service—always valuable and some- times illustrious—could not be allowed to pass away without record and recognition. The career of Lord RAGLAN was remarkable. Forty years ago he sealed with his blood. the triumphant close of a great struggle against the danger of universal empire ;and, after that long interval, he had given his country his life, in order to guard it from the menace of a new and overwhelming enemy." As already stated, the only divergence from entire unanimity in reference to the graceful tribute, thus paid on all hands to departed worth, came witheha- racteristic mal-appropriateness from the peace party. With his customary stolidity of purpose, Mr. MILNER GIBS oN interrupted the harmony of the proceeding by interjecting an address upon the iniquity of hostilities, and propounding a series of questions as to the future policy of the cabinet, in relation to the conduct of the war. The house was in no temper for indulging in such unseemly freaks : it felt the business before it was business-of deep importance to the national character and honour ; it sym- pathised entirely with the indignant repudiation of such ,a course contained in the withering observations delivered in answer to it by Lord PALMERSToN, who declared "he should not, on the present occasion, be led away by the taunts of Mr. GinsOw, or any of his colleagues, to discuss the Vienna confe- rences, or to encounter the hostility of the peace party." In this view of the case, the house quite concurred with the views expressed by the PREMIER, and the resolutions were put and carried neinine contradicente. So far, the proceedings in both branches of the legislature have been creditable to them, and in harmony with the feelings of the nation. On Friday night an occurrence took place in the House of Commons, calculated seriously to damage the little reputation Lord Join( RUM/ESL had contrived to retain for himself. On the occasion referred to, Mr. M. GIBSON extorted from our recent envoy at the Vienna conferences, that he (Lord JOHN RUSSELL) concurred in the third point proposed by Count Biro', and agreed to recommend it for the adoption of his colleagues. That, on his, return, he did urge it on the acceptance of the British cabinet; but was out-voted on the question ; and, instead of retiring from the ministry which he had endeavoured to compromise,. he concurred in the rejection of the proposal, and, with sings. lar inconsistency, defended in parliament the rejection of that offer, which, as a plenipotentiary, he had approved of, and which, as a cabinet minister, he had endeavoured to securethe adoption of! Well might Mr. DISRAELI say, that evening would be " memorable for its revelations—memorable- for. confessions more extraordinary than any ever made—in that house. Tne noble lord had returned from Vienna* as he now confessed, the advocate of propositions. for peace which had been rejected by his colleagues, and he then became the zealous advocate of a proposition for war, while privately he was of opinion that peace ought to have been, and could have been, obtained-- "-We own," says the Daily News, " we should have hesitated to believe any other testimony than that of Lord Jorailinaself on such a subject; but as he has thought fit to place the matter on record, we have no choice but to express. our dis- appointment at the course he has pursued, and our astonish- ment at the reasons he has set forth as its justification." With such revelations as the one of Friday night, and some others of a scarcely less startling character, how' can the Cabinet expect to enjoy the confidence of Parliament or the respect of the people ? With such discordant views upon the vital questions of peace or war, how can the Ministry expect to be believed sincere in their pretensions to carry on the war with energy and alacrity ? Is not the influeneeof such divided counsels a sufficiently strong and pointed explanation of the inefficient manner in which the war has been conducted? How, stands. Lord Jorm RUSSELL'S own position in respect to it ? At the opening of the present Parliamentary session, his lordship, in the exigence of his rampant zeal for an energetic conduct of hostilities, upset the Government of which he-was.- then a member, because it lacked the element of capacit, for vigorously carrying on the war. On the accomplishment.of this feat, a real war Ministry was of course formed, and. the valiant member for the City of London contrived tawriggle himself into it. Having succeeded so far, his next move .was to obtain the appointment of Plenipotentiary, in which cha- racter he endeavoured to bring about a close of thewar on terms, which he afterwards, in Parliament, denounced:as pusil- lanimous and discreditable to our arms—as .a mockery and a delusion—yet which he had himself expressed, approbation of and done his best to wheedle- his colleagues into. an adoption of! And what is the reason he assigns for this,fast-and-loose policy ? On what ground does he pretend to justify the turn- ing and turning policy he thus acknowledges himself guilty of ? Why, forsooth, " he felt it his duty,.as aMinister of the Crown, not to embarrass a. Government placed in the difficult circumstances which surrounded that of his noble friend." This was too much for even the coarse maw of Mr. COBDEN to digest ; and the honourable representative of the Hussies broadly charged Lord JOHN with " dissimulation" in so long disguising his sentiments on the subject of the Austrian pro- positions ; and with " weakness" in yielding to his fellow-mi- nisters on a point so important. Mr. ROEBUCK was equally pointed, and still more severe, in his condemnation of the " inconsistency, incompetence, and weakness," displayed by our late negotiator at Vienna. The self-reliant PREMIER ob- viously felt himself much perplexed by the awkwardness of the " situation," and, with his least nonchalant air, declared, in defence of Lord JOHN, that " no government could be ren- dered permanent without some sacrifice of opinion among its component members ;" while, to render the farce completes Sir GEORGE GREY denied the existence of any division in the cabinet, and declared that ou the question of the war they were united and determined ! What may be the result of such discrepant views on questions of vital policy, it is no easy matter to determine. The present occupants of office appear to wear a charmed official life, and to cling to place with ex- traordinary pertinacity. The vote of censure on the late and present governments, of which Mr. ROEBUCK has given no- tice, is fixed for discussion on the evening of Tuesday week. It is to be met by " the previous question," which will be moved as an amendment on Mr. ROEBUCK'S motion, by General PEEL, and much anxious speculation as to the result is indulged in by both the friends and foes of ministers. In the mean- time, popular rumour is again busy in asserting that Lord JOHN Rvsseu, has been making the most of his Austrian political holiday, and has been successful in superseding Lord WESTMORELAND, as ambassador at Vienna, by the Hon. Mr. ELLIOTT, a near relative by marriage of Lord JOHN. Another dreary and sad week has closed on the public as it broods in sorrow over the dark details which have been trans- mitted from the Crimea. Very full accounts have now arrived in relation to all the complicated miseries and mistakes which appear to have been crowded into the fatal affairs of the 18th of June. These, if not quite so bad as was at first dreaded, have turned out considerably worse than it was hoped they would do. Our losses, although not so extensive as was at first stated, are in a degree aggravated by the circumstance that they were almost entirely the result of blunders. De- spatches from the late Lord RAGLAN and from General PELISSIER render this melancholy fact indisputable, and strong opinions are expressed on all hands in relation to the sad affair. Viewed in the light afforded in those despatches, and in the descriptions given by the newspaper correspond- ents, and by private letters, the affair of the 18th was a chap- ter of accidents, a tissue of blunders, leading to great and inevitable slaughter, without affording almost the chance of a fortunate result. The game of deadly cross-purposes ap- pears to have begun in the French camp, and to have been continued with fatal pertinacity on the part of the English. That action which on the part of our Allies should have been, and was intended to be simultaneous, was begun prematurely, and never was anything but desultory. On our part a similar want of concert and understanding appears to have been equally predominant and equally disastrous. When the enemy showed coolness and power, the generals opposed to them became bewildered and lost their lives. At first it had been decided that the assault should be preceded by a cannonade of some hours' duration ; a point on which Lord RAGLAN placed great and well-founded reliance. S-ab- sequent to this airangement, General PsrassrEn saw some reason for changing his mind, and he communicated this altered intention to his brother commander at a late hour in the evening. It seems also to have been arranged that the French attack on the Malakhoff should be made before the English columns attempted anything against the Redan. The signal for the French advance Was to be the discharge of a star-rocket, and for this signal the blazing fuse of a shell was mistaken by General Mkneetee, who im- mediately ordered his columns forward. In this he was but- too• promptly obeyed—he rushed on; and before the real signal for attack was made, trey were' repulsed' and he' himself' was borne off the field hr a dying condition. Another division of the French attack was' equally unfortu- nate, frem- the- opposite.cause. General Bnulerr was-as much too late. as- General Pfee-rer,ter had been too early. Ire'sras also killed, and his columns were driven back, with great slaughter, after they had actually planted their eagles within the Russian works. The absence- of combined amVsimultane- ous action, an the part of these two bodies, enabled the Russians to deal with each separately, and in succession: If such were the blundering commencement, and such theunfor- tunate issue of the' intended operations on the part of the French, the conduct and result of the English proceedings offer a wonderful parallelism throughout their continuance, and at their conclusion'. The attach on the Redan, wliieh it was arranged should not be made'until the French established themselves in the Malakhoffi and in whieh ease it could scarcely have been needed, was made when the- Fiench had failed in their attack. The French columns were exposed to a sever3' and murderous fire long before they coulclreach the scene of their intended conflict, andMeerasee's divisitm was broken in iteprosoess. On the part of the English, proper means had not been adopted to enable the men to get saver" the parapets of their own trenches, and they were shot" down in twos and threes-as• they straggled out of their fastnesses. It is certain that two of the attacking parties were almost atrnildlated in less than a quarter of an hour after they had sotanibled out of the trenches, and before they had recovered from~ the con- fusion into which they had been thrown in their eff6rts to get out of those- trenches in which they had previa:SOY been posted. In vain-endeavours to form the men into bodies at this critical and terrible moment, the brave Sir Joner'Cliser- BELL and the-equally gallant Colonel YEA' were killed; while a perfect storm. of grape, cannister, and round shot, together with musket and- rig balls, swept over and through their rapidly diminishing ranks. To complete the 'chapter of acci- dents with which this-sad clay's work began and ended, it is necessary to examine the course of action begun and carried out by the third division under- Genera! ETRE; in, what appears •to -have been intended only as -a feint ; lane' which in reality turned out the only success, of 'the day, .And' which if duly supported might have terminated• in a real victory. This gallant officer, with a force- of- osily about four-. regiments, although the effectives of five'were under Iris- orders,- made an attack upon an armed cemetery, in a suburb of Sebastopol,. and carried the-defences, four 'companies of the 166Yal brisk making a successful lodgment in some hou_es. within range of the Russian fire, which they- held against every opposidon for several hours—seventeen, it is said—vainly hoping for support which should enable them permanently to hold th'e advantage they had gained. At four o'clock in the morning, Majcrt4eneral ETRE established himself within Sebastopol, andi not tell nine at nighteafter he himself had been carried off wounded, did his men reluctantly retire, in obedience to orders -from the Com- mander-in-Chief. These houses- are represented as -having been well furnished and plentifully supplied with• everything conducive to comfort, and to.these our brave- soldiers-helped themselves pretty liberally. Considerable freedenr of remark has been indulged in by more than one non-military critic, in reference to the withdrawal from this positioneafter our troops had established themselves in it ; some of these•maintaining that it might have been rete.staed•and converted- into a point d' appui, from which future - operations •might. - have been readily directed. This, it is said, is of a piecewith• the other proceedings. in this war. Nosmall. success* haseverteen pushed into a great one:. Here waaat least one regiment which had forced its way into Sebastopol, 'and remainecl there f3n-u day. The soldiers-drank wine ant carried off some-articles of fur- niture, togetherwith poultry,-guinea-pigs anlother -mementoes of the day's foray, clearly establishing .the foot of their suc- cessful occupation, and their comparatively unmolested retreat. Thus we have invariably knocked our heads. lustily against the strong points but, when.we have found. weak: nes, we have made but sligbi- endeavour to•profit by the discovery. Since the • last scene of this bloody and All-constructed tragedy has been played, popular, judgment.- hoe been much disturbed.. Before any of tile details were• known, intelligence was received that Lord, Ra.e.r....ut was no ,more. That his constitution, yielding to the debilitating influences of the- climate, and weakened by anxiety, had been overthrown irt_, the unequal . conflict between duty an inadequate support: from the home authorities.;. the fatal result: expedited in all likelihood by reflection on the fearful issue othis first and list- failure., If the gallant General or his friends ,had reason to., complaint of bewildering instructions and lukewarm support,-:- if either he or they had ,grounds for objecting.to the curr!sit' attoPuhe criticism on his conduct of affairs in the Crimea, much may be said in extenuation of the latter—(the formes, if existing, admits of: no defence)—by alinsiosa to popular: en, thosia. sm—to the comparatively small results and enormous sacrifices which have up to the present moment characterised the Crimean war, and the general mismanagement which has been proved to hang about it from its commencement.. If any injustice has. been done to the -noble soldier when living, ample amends have been made to his memory. His.gallantry and goodness, have been themes. for every pen and every tongue. A serous country has liberally acknawledged,its. error. Let the unwelcome topic sink now into merited, oblivion. The honour and the.. memory of Lord, Ittnr.,ax are. safe in the country's keeping; he is beyond the reach of, censure, and deaf to the voice of praise. The appointment of a successor to Lord Rextx.A.x still oceu,- pies a considerable shareof general attention ; and, although General SIMPSON* has, been formally appointed, a strong opinion is prevalent in well-informed circles that this is.but a temporary arrangement ; and many maintain, as. upon good authority, that the command has been offered to Lord HARDINGE, who, it is further said, will accept it.. In objec- tion to this appointment it is urged, that his lordship, who is three years the senior of the late Lord RAGLAN, is too old to be oppressed, with the cares of sa arduous a command—many maintaining that the active energy of youth is alone com- petent to cope with the difficultieaof such a position. Against those who start such objections it is urged that the dangerous impetuosity of inexperience has been fatally shown in the results of the attack on the Malakhoff. From even the very regulated tone of Lard RAGLAN'S despatch, giving an account of the affair,, it is evident that he did not even from the first approve of it, although he yielded to the impressement of General PELlssinn. What is wanted is a General with firmness of -purpose, and such experience in war as will enable him to form a just estimate of any proposal, and abide by his decision on it. The high military position of Lord HARDINGE, and his generally calm, yet resolute judg- ment, point him out as well suited to the post ; whether his physical energies are such as would justify his acceptance of it, may well intace him to pause for consideration. The last week or two has been fatal to two veterans long connected with the newspaper press of the metropolis. Mr. Joint BLACK and Mr. JAMES S. BUCKINGHAM, are men- tioned in the obituaries among those whose warfare has been brought to a close, but not before each of them attained a ripe old age. The former was editor of the Morning Chronicle for upwards of a 4uarter of a century, at the time when it earned that reputation which of late years its chief conductors have successfully laboured to dispel. The son of a Scotch peasant, Mr. BLACK, like many of his countrymen, began life with no better education than that afforded by a Scotch parochial school. Having left the scene of early labour, he succeeded in placing himself in a solicitor's office, in Edin•

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. OFFICIAL DESPATCHES. A -supplement to the London Gazette of Tuesday contains n despatch from the late Lord Raglan, dated BEFORE gRattSTOPOL, June 23. My Lord,—l informed your lordsl.4 in my despatch of the 19th instant, that I would make a more special report upon the movements of the third division,. as soon as I should receive the reports of Lieut.-General Sir R. England and the Major-Generals commanding brigades =der him. The .first brigade, under M.-General Barnard, proceeded down the Woronzoff road, and was plaeed in position on the right of the ravine, ready to co-operate with the columns of attack •en the right ; while the second brigade, under M.-General Eyre, moved down the ravine which separates the left of-the English from the right of the French advanced works, for the purpose of attacking the enemy's ambuscades, and making a demonstration on the .head of the Dockyard Creek. This,service was performed with the utmost gallantry, and, notwithstanding that they were exposed to a most galling fire, the troops maintained themselves in the position they had taken up during the day, and in the evening withdrew un- molested, leaving a post at the Cemetery, which had been one of the objects of the attack .in the morning. The action having from circumstances ,become a most serious one, •I beg, as the most satisfactory way of making your lordship acquainted with the particulars, to lay a copy of the Major-General's letter before your lordship, and to solicit your attention to the officers whose •services he particularly notices, and at the same time to >his own distinguished conduct. Your lordship will see with concern that the loss sustained by this brigade is very considerable, .and that M.-General Eyre is himself wounded ; but I have -every reason to hope that the injury he has received is not -very severe, and will not incapacitate him from the discharge of his duty with the same energy and devotion he has already applied himself to its performance during the protracted operations before Sebastopol. The remainder of the despatch bears testimony to the merits of the several officers engaged. (Enclosure 1.) CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, JUNE 19. Sir,—l have the honour to report, for the information of Lieut.-General Sir Richard England, K.CB., commanding the division, that, agreeably to his instructions, I moved off yes- terday morning, between one and two o'clock a.m., with my brigade, consisting of the 9th, 18th, 28th, 38th, and 44th Regiments—total strength, about 2,000 bayonets—and pro- ceeded down to the ravine on our left, by the French Picket- house, for the purpose of attacking the enemy's ambuscades, and of making a demonstration on that side. In attacking the first of these ambuscades we were antici- pated by the French, who cleverly took them on their left flank as we advanced in front, and made several prisoners. Beyond this the French had no instructions to co-operate with us ; I therefore immediately pushed on an advanced guard, under Major Fielden, 44th Regiment, composed of marksmen from each regiment, supporting it on the right by the 44th and 38th Regiments, and on the left by the 18th Regiment, keeping at first the 9th and 28th Regiments in reserve. The enemy, whose strength I could not estimate, occupied a strong position ; their right rested on a mamelon, their left on a cemetery. hese points were occupied by marksmen. The intervening ground was intersected, and the road bar- ricaded with stone walls, which our men were obliged to pull down, under fire, before they could advance. In rear of this position, towards the fortress, the enemy occupied several houses, and there were bodies of the enemy seen in rear, as reserves, but of what strength I could not say. This position, under the fire of the guns of the fortress, was strong, and we could not expect to carry it and retain it without sustaining a considerable loss, and which, I regret to state, we have experienced both in officers and men ; but it is gratifying to feel that they all most nobly performed their duty on this occasion. The 18th Regiment pushed on, and occupied some houses immediately under the Garden-wall Battery. The 44th occupied some houses on the right, whence they kept up a fire on the enemy's embrasures. Lieut.-Colonel Lowth moved on with his regiment (the 38th), and, after tak- ing possession of some houses in front, endeavoured to turn the flank of a battery which annoyed us in front. These par- ties were afterwards from time to time reinforced or relieved by the 9th regiment, the 28th regiment being drawn up in line in rear to support the whole. Having driven the enemy from these points, I continued to occupy them, with the view to ulterior movements, in the event of the attack on the right being successful, and until it was decided what portion of the ground should be retained for siege operations. I cannot sufficiently express my sense of the conduct of the officers, non-commissioned officers, and men on this occasion. They attacked the enemy in the first instance with the utmost gallantry, holding their ground until late in the evening, al- though exposed all day to a concentrated fire from the guns of the fortress, in addition to which I believe the enemy brought up some field guns, and kept continually firing shells. The losses occasioned were considerable, the total being 31 officers, 44 sergeants, and 487 rank and file killed or wounded. At about five o'clock in the evening, after giving orders for the removal of the wounded to the rear, the gradual with- drawal of the parties from the front—the ground being too far in advance to be permanently occupied for siege operations —I gave over the command of the Brigade to Lieut.-Colonel Adams, 28th Regiment, having received a wound in the head in the early part of the day, which prevented me latterly from attending properly to my duties. The enemy did not attempt to molest the troops on retiring. The conduct of all was so exemplary during this trying day that I can scarcely with justice particularise individuals. I beg, however, to thank the officers commanding corps for the assistance they afforded me—viz., Lieut.-Colonel Borton, commanding the 9th Regi- ment ; Lieut.-Colonel Edwards, commanding the 18th Royal Irish; Lieut.-Colonel Adams, commanding the 28th Regiment; Colonel the Hon. A. Spencer, commanding the 44th Regiment, who was wounded, and Lieut.-Colonel Staveley, who succeeded to the command of the regiment on Colonel Spencer being obliged to quit the field ; Lieut.-Colonel Lowth, commandine' the 38th Regiment, who wac also wounded, acid to Lieut.- Colonel Sparks, who succeeded him in the command of the regiment; and Major Fielden, 44th, commanding the ad- vanced guard. I received also the utmost assistance from my Brigade- Major, Captain Faussett, 44th Regiment, and also on this, as on many other occasions, from my Aide-de-Camp, Captain Robertson, 4th Regiment. I was also indebted to Brevet-Major Stuart Wortley, Deputy-Assistant-Quartermaster-General, who kindly volunteered to act on my staff. I beg also to report the judicious arrangements of the Medical Department on this occasion, and especially to thank Assistant-Surgeon John Gibbons, 44th Regiment, and As- sistant-Surgeon Jeeves, 38th Regiment, for their zealous and humane exertions in the field while exposed to a most galling fire.—l have, &c., W. EYRE, Major-General. shown their attachment to their commander by the deep regvetlvith which they now mourn his loss. Her Majesty is confident that the talents and virt'aes which distinguished Lord Raglan throughout the whole of his valuable life will for ever endear his memory to the British army. By command of the Right Hon. General Viscount Hardinge, Commanding in Chief, G.-A. WETHERALL, Adjutant-Genera] LETTERS FROM THE CRIMEA. Mt following is the copy of a letter from a Corporal of the 57th:Foot, to his parents in Liverpool : Camp near Sebastopol, 11 at night, 17th June, 1855. 3.1 y DEAR PARENTS,—Perhaps this is the last time that I may ever be permitted to write to you. I have just made my final preparations ; the assault on Sebastopol takes place at midnight, and, as I told you before, we have the post of honour—our regiment leads the storming party, we fall in at a-quarter past 12, I must therefore hurry. Should I fall, I have told two or three persons to let you know my fate—you must not in that case sorrow too much—remember that I have fallen in the path of duty, in resisting the ambition of a tyrant, who, if permitted to follow out his plans, might eventually carry the horrors of war into our own loved country. That we will be successful, I do not entertain the least shadow of a doubt; but we may be so, and yet I may be among the -slain, for that our own loss will be great I also believe. However, I commit myself to the care of Him who holds worlds in the palm of His hand, humbly trusting that He having hitherto preserved me throughout the horrors and dangers that I have passed through, will, if not for my sake,yet for the sake of those whom I know dailyotrer up fervent prayers to the Throne of Grace for my safety. He I say will I trust preserve me through the dangers which to-morrow's dawn -shall unford upon me; and, should it be His merciful will that I should fall, I humbly trust that, sinner as I have been, He -will pardon me for the sake of Him who died that sinners might live—unto His gracious protection I therefore commit myself, praying that, if it is His will to take me, you may receive the affliction with humility, saying—Father, thy will be done. My last thought shall be about you ; I trust that they may not interfere with my thoughts on eternity. Give my love to all. God bless you, and may He in His infinite providence make the trials and afflictions which you now ,bear upon my account the means of conveying His grace to your souls, is the prayer of—my dear Father and Mother, your affectionate Son, J. M. P.S.—The Colour-Serjeant of my company will write to you should he survive, and anything happen to me. The following is from a correspondent of the Daily News, dated CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, JUNE 26. No move of importance has occurred in the siege operations the last few days. The French are sapping up towards the Malakhoff,and already the trenches make a considerable show. An extensive place d'armes has been formed in front of the Mamelon. The armament of the White Redoubt (Selenghinsk Redoubt), above Careening Bay, is being strength- ened and works added. The small 5-gun work, deserted by the Russians, at the extremity of the spur, is still unoccupied, except by a few French riflemen ; it is not in a position to be rendered available against the enemy's works on the west side of the Careening ravine. The Russians are adding to their number of guns on the verge of the cliffs on the north side of the roadstead opposite to Mount Sapone. On our side we are extending the sap towards the Redau, and as yet have not met with any interruption from the enemy. A trench has also been made to connect the extremities of the right and middle boyau proceeding with the old advanced work, and this has again been joined to the parallel extended from the Quarry Battery. A new battery of considerable strength is in course of construction; it is expected that it will be chiefly brought to bear against the Russian shipping. When Colonel Yea fell in the attack on the Redan, he had with him a plan of the works in the right attack ; this, how- ever, could give the enemy little information beyond what he already possesses. All the trenches and batteries on French- man's-hill, from the sloping nature of the ground, are fully ex- posed to his view. It is alone Apssible to keep secret the exact position and nature of the armament of the new batteries; but it would appear, from the counterworks erected, that the enemy has means of obtaining speedy information even on these sub- jects. The night before last, lam informed, a party of our engi- neers succeeded in approaching the mouth of the harbour suffi- ciently near, in the Banshee, to enable them to discover a star battery in the course of erection in the immediate rear of the Malakhoff—an addition to the strength of that position which I need hardly say would greatly enhance the difficulty of its capture. There is reason to believe that similar strength- ening additions are also in progress behind the Redan; but there are less important, as it is not likely that that work will again be made a principal point of attack, its abandonment follow- ing, as a matter of course, on the seizure of the Malakhoff. The French have been throwing shells at the large Russian ships in the Great Harbour from some batteries on the left. Several shells fell very near; in one instance a shell fell into the water between two of the ships—a three-decker and two- decker, but without doing any arm. The ships still remain broadside on the direction of the Malakhoff-hill. On several nights lately, boats from the fleet have stolen in towards the mouth of the Great Harbour, and discharged shells androckets into the town. They have been within range of the guns of the forts, but the darkness has prevented the enemy from determining their position, notwithstanding the momentary flashes of their fire. Active search has been made during the last few days for Russian spies [supposed to be in the camp. Several innocent persons have been taken up on suspicion. Among others, Captain Freeman Armstrong, of the 18th Royal Irish regiment, was yesterday arrested as a spy, He had come over on horse- back from the Third Division, and in consequence of some striking peculiarities in his dress and appearance, and certain . questions about the works on Frenchman's-hill which he put to the guard at the picket-house, he was thought to be a Russian agent in an assumed dress. Notice was given to the Provost-Sergeant, who followed Captain Armstrong to Inker- mann, and there arrested him. It was in vain he made assertions of his being an officer of the 18th Regiment. ho was COmpoll.d to come to }ho r.-opur authorities. As he moved along, a crowd of soldiers gathered, both French and English ; there was no doubt that he was a spy, and loud was the explosion of indignation which followed. Captain Armstrong became excited, and it was perhaps for- tunate that his sword, which was curved, and not at all of the ordinary English shape, was taken from him. He was not identified until he reached the Adjutant-General's office of the Light Division. A short time since a Russian agent passed in a direction towards the Mamelon, dressed in the uniform of a French captain of the line. Something led to suspicion re- specting his real character, and he was interrogated. As he did not know the name of the colonel of the regiment, nor which division the regiment belonged to, he was removed for closer examination elsewhere, and the fact of his being in dis- guise was speedily proved. Several of the Greek canteen men in camp have been taken up on suspicion of being spies. A TRUCE.—The correspondent of the Daily News before Sebastopol describes one of those occurrences now so frequent, a truce for burying the dead and searching out the wounded. He says :—" During this proceeding a number of Russian officers mingled amongst our party, and, as several of them spoke English fluently, a good deal was said. Their ' pump- ing' inclination, however, was so marked as in most cases to defeat itself, though one of our officers was guilty of the indis- cretion of informing a very suave interrogator that their grape did sad injury to our men in possession of the lately-taken Quarries—a remark which procured his instant order to the rear by General Airey. It was by one of these polite foes that the inquiry was made of an Englishman at my side whether `our Generals had really been drunk or not during the recent assault.' The Russians having helped us to gather in the dead, the whole sad duty was soon performed, and the truce brought to an end." The Standard of Friday says :—We learn that the Ordnance are just now preparing artillery, more especially mortars, upon a prodigious scale, some to carry shells as large as the huge stone balls used by the Turks at the siege of Rhodes. We mention the fact, because no enemy can take advantage of the information, as the missiles of which we speak mustdefy resis- tance. As we are informed, the mortier monstre, which by two discharges, or three at most, reduced the previously im- pregnable citadel of Antwerp, was a babe to those of which we speak—their range is calculated at five miles. We presume that Cronstadt is to have the benefit of their first experiments. This is going to work in the right way. Such engines of destruction, planted upon strong rafts, would exactly fulfil our plan given for the attack of sea-shore fortresses. Ax ARMY SURGEON writes on the 11th from before Sebas- topol : —" On the 7th,a little hop-o'-my-thumb of a soldier made prisoner a Russian officer, whom he conducted with much pride to the first parallel, the officer overtopping the little man's musket and bayonet. I asked the Russian if he spoke French; he shook his head and said "no speak ; ' but he exclaimed, ` doctor, doctor.' I made signs that I was one, and he then took off his coat, when I found he had a bullet wound at the back of his neck. He now tried to make himself understood by talking Latin. Pointing to the wound in his neck, he asked, 'AI-oriole est?' 'When I told him it was not mortal, he pressed me by the hand, and said, 'Pater, mater, et soror sunt miki.' He said he was a lieutenant of the 7th Dnieper Regiment. When he saw me open my case for a bandage to dress his wound, he thrust his hand into one of his own coat- pockets, and produced his own for that purpose. All the Russian soldiers, very wisely, carry these things about the in TIEE North Briton, a cheap Edinburgh paper, announces, as a great inducement to purchasers, that its readers will receive, from a certain dealer, "one quarter of a pound of tea for 91d." AN ADVENTUROUS LADY, mentioned as having, in an hour of no ordinary peril, paid a visit to the Mamelon Tower, was, it is said, the wife of Lord George Paget, the commanding officer of the 4th Light Dragoons. CHARLES BEVAN, late secretary to the Deposit and General Life Assurance Company, was sentenced at the Central Criminal Court, on Thursday, to eighteen months' hard labour, for stealing a cheque of the company. A BILL has passed the House of Lords, and is now in the House of Commons, to amend the Charitable Trusts Act of 1853. Among other provisions it extends the powers of the commissioners and inspectors to inquire into charities. WEST INDIA PINEAPPLES.—The first cargo of the season, consisting of 25,000, has arrived after a 30 days' passage per Nancy Dawson, The growth of the crop has been somewhat retarded owing to want of rain. EXTRAORDINARY, IF TRUE.—The Bedford Times relates a circumstance of an extraordinary character which occurred a short time since in one of the flourishing towns of the midland counties. A clergyman died, and his wife and daughters on the third day after his decease, recollecting that no likeness remained of the once cherished son and brother, it was agreed, ere the grave closed o'er him, that the body should be unshrouded and a portrait taken. A young lady of some professional celebrity was engaged for the task. She, with the assistance of the attendant, took off the shroud and placed the body in the requisite posture ; but other duties requiring the artist's attention, the sketch was deferred till noon. About twelve o'clock, at the foot of the bed, the lady commenced and went through an hour's work on this image of death. At this stage of the proceedings, by some unaccountable motion, the head of the deathlike figure fell on one side. Nothing daunted, the artist carefully took the head to replace it, when, lo ! the eyes opened, and staring her full in the face, " the dead" inquired— Who are you F' The young " professional," without trepidation, took the bandage from the head and rubbed his neck. He immediately saw the shroud and laughed immoderately. The artist quietly called the family—their joy may be imagined but cannot be described. That evening, he who had laid three days in his shroud, bemoaned by mother and sisters with agonising tears, gladdened their hearts by taking his accustomed place at their tea table, and at this moment is making an excursion in North Wales.

During the last four years their ex- traordinary efficacy has astonished thousands. The Hair Restored, Baldness and Greyness Prevented by BEETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID. The frilly wonderful effi- cacy of this unique preparation is the them? of admiration where- ver introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling off or turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have been bald for years, strengthens weak and fine hair, and gradually restores its natural colour, without the use of dye. It cleanses the head from scurf, and imparts a beautiful transparent, glossy appear- ance, and keeps it in any desired form. In inducing the growth of whiskers, eyebrows, mustachios, its effect is surprising.— Bottles 2s. 6d.; double size 4s. 6d. ; 7s. 6d., equal to four small ; Its. to six small. EASE AND COMFORT IN WALKING.— BERTH ANPS CORN AND BUNION PLASTER.—This most important dis- covery causes the greatest delight and astonishment wherever it is introduced. Its effect, to use the words of numerous corres- pondents, is truly miraculous ; the most inveterate Corns, Bunions, and those unsightly and painful enlargements of the GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful symmetry of thefoot, have been immediately relieved from all pain and uneasi- ness, and in a short time entirely disappeared, after twenty years' suffering. Unexceptionable references are allowed to be given to individuals in almost every part of the United Kingdom. —Sold in packets, 1 s.; boxes, Os. 6d. ; which will be sent free to any part of the United Kingdom on the receipt of 14 or 34 postage stamps, by Mr. BEETHAM, Cheltenham, or any of his Agents.

Every instruction given for their application for the various Diseases in which they are recommended. Those who are suffering from bodily infirmities should make trial of this mighty power, that has performed lasting benefits to hundreds of thousands. It removes all pain, breaks down all obstructions in the system, and enters into the very midst of the disease. No Medical Man or Family should be without one. J.

Mr. E. takes great pleasure in acquainting his numerous Patrons and Friends, that he has fitted up the above spacious Gallery with all the requisites for producing first-class Portraits. Mr. E. begs to state that, in producing a really good Daguer- reotype, a combination of appliances and favourable circum stances are required, deprived of which the Art sinks to the insignificance Justly belonging to the very many wretched dis- torted abortions, claiming the name of Photographs, and are to be seen in almost every street. M. E.'s long practice in the above Art has resulted in the pro- duction of Portraits as much superior to the ordinary Photograph as the leading artist is to the street miniature painter.

Were a little ordinary attention devoted to these organs, we should no longer find tooth-ache and other diseases of the mouth so pre- valent nor would our senses be affected by offensive breath and similar disagreeable concomitants.

TRIESEMAR. ON THE 29TH OF MAY, 1355, AN INJUNCTION WAS GRANTED BY THE HIGH COURT OF CHANCERY, AND ON THE 11TH OF JUNE FOLLOWING WAS MADE PERPETUAL, AGAINST JOSEPH FRANK- LIN AND OTHERS, TO RESTRAIN THEM, UNDER A PENALTY OF £l,OOO, FROM IMITATING THIS MEDICINE, WHICH IS PRO- TECTED BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT OF ENGLAND, AND SECURED BY THE SEALS OF THE ECOLE DE PHARMACIE DE PARIS AND THE IMPERIAL COLLEGE OF MEDICINE, VIENNA. TRIESEMAR, No. 1, is a Remedy for Relaxation, Spermatorr- licea, and Exhaustion of the System. TRIESEMAR, No. 2, effectually, in the short space of Three Days, completely and entirely eradicates all traces of those dis- orders which Capsules hive so long been thought an antidote for, to the ruin of the health of a vast portion of the population. TRIESEMAR, No. 3, is the Great Continental Remedy for that class of disorders which, unfortunately, the English physician treats with Mercury, to the destruction of the Patient's constitu- tion, and which all the Sarsaparilla in the world cannot remove. TRIESEMAR, Nos. 1,2, and 3, are alike devoid of taste or smell, and of all nauseating qualities.

PAINS IN THE BACK, GRAVEL, LUMBAGO, RHEUMATISM, GOUT, HEADACHE, NERVOUSNESS, DEBILITY, &c. DR. DE ROOS' COMPOUND RENAL PILLS (astheir name Renal. or the Kidneys, indicates) have been long established as a most safe and efficacious remedy for the above dangerous complaints, Discharges of any kind, and Diseases of the Kidneys and organs therewith connected generally, &c.,which, if neglected, frequently end in a lingering painful death. For Depression of Spirits, Excitement, Dislike of Society, Incapacity for Study or Business, Loss of Memory, Confusion, Giddiness, Blood to the Head. Drowsiness, Sleep without refreshment, Nervousness, and even Insanity itself, they are unequalled. Possessing tonic pro- perties, they agree with the most delicate stomach, strengthen the digestive organs, increase the appetite, and improve the gene- ral health. They require neither confinement nor change of diet, and, as experience has amply proved, they will effect a cure when mercury and all other dangerous medicines have failed. One trial will convince the moat sceptical of their surprising properties. Mr. Letellier, Etruria, Potteries.—" Your Renal Pills have done wonders with me and others to whom I have recommended them." H. C., Post-office, Stafford.—" Your Renal Pills are a most splendid medicine." J. Murphy,- 70, Upper Sterin-street, llub!in.—" I never met the like of them before, they are really a surprisinz medicine." W. Chartres, Esq., Newport, Mayo.—" I have a degree of mental! enzrgy and rigour such as 1 did not feel these two years. My memory is wonderfully improved, so that I can recollect all the events of each day with the greatest degree of clearness. It is astonishing how I got out of such awful sufferings, but I think I owe it altogether to the use of your Pills." PERSONS GOING ABROAD, CAPTAINS and OTHE2S, can- not store more important articles of health than the above, which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad, as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from medical aid. they will find in these Pills a never-railinq restorative. IMPOiiTANT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr. DE Roos' PILLS, have attempted to foist upon the public other Medicines or trash of their own compounding, from which they obtain a larger profit. The GENUINE have the words, " WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," in white letterson a red ground, printed in the Stamp affixed to each box; by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Commissioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate which is felony. May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., 118., and 335. per Box, with full directions for use •, or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr. DE ROOS, 10, BERNERS-STREET, OXFORD-ST., LONDON, they will be sent per return. At home for consultation daily from it till 4 o'clock. Sunday excepted. Advice and Medicines &I. Sold by Jones, 5, Paradise-street, and 78, London-road.

N.B.—Respectable Persons in Country places, who will be allowed a liberal Commission, may make a handsome addition to their income by selling these P' ills, which are very justly becoming favourite Medicine with the Public. NO MORE PILLS NOR ANY OTHER MEDI- CINE.—For INDIGESTION (Dyspepsia), CONSTIPATION, NERVOUS, BILIOUS, and LIVER COMPLAINTS, COUGH, CON- SUMMON' and DEBILITY.—DU BARRY'S delicious REVA- LENTA ARABICA FOOD saves 50 times its cost in Medicine, and Cures the above complaints and their consequences, such as flatulency, distension, acidity, heartburn, palpitation of the heart, nervous headaches. deafness, noises in the head and ears, pains at the pit of the stomach and between the shoulders, diarrhxa, dysentery, impurity and poverty of the blood, scrofula, asthma, dropsy, rheumatisin,gout, nausea and sickness during pregnancy, after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spasms, cramps, epileptic fits, spleen, general debility, inquietude, sleeplessness, involuntary blushing, paralysis, tremors, dislike to society, unfitness for study, loss of memory, delusions, vertigo, blood to the head, ex- haustion, melancholy, groundless fear, indecision. It is, more- over, the best food for infants and invalids generally, as it never purges or turns acid on the weakest stomach, nor interferes with a good liberal diet, but imparts a healthy relish for lunch and dinner, and restores the faculty of digestion and nervous and muscular energyto the most enfeebled. Analysis by the Professor of Chemistry and Analytical Chemist, ANDREW URE, M.D., F.R.S., &c., &c.—London, June 3, 1849. 1 find it to be a pure vegetable Farina, perfectly wholesome,easily digestible, likely to promote a healthy action of the stomach and bowels, and thereby to counteract dyspepsia, constipation, and their nervous consequences.—ANDßEW URE, F.K.S., &c.

THE LAW OF PARTNERSHIP. On the motion that the house go into committee' on the Partnership Amendment Bill, Mr. ARCHIEA.LD HAEITIE moved an amendment that the house go into committee that day three months. The hon. mem- ber contended that the system of limited liability which it was now proposed to introduce would not be attended with any benefit to the public, and that the existing system had worked well. 116 read a number of long extracts from a pamphlet on the subject, which were listened to with some impatience, when at length, Mr. E. BALL rose, and spake to order. Submitting that no hon. member was justified in reading a whole pamphlet. Mr. HASTIE contended that he was strictly in order, inas- much, as he was only following the example of the right hon. gentleman who introduced the bill. Several hon. members exclaimed he read only extracts. Mr. HA-HIE replied that he was reading only extracts. (A laugh.) He proceeded to read two other long passages, and was commencing a third, when Mr. JOHN MACGREGOR rose to order. The hon. member for Paisley might almost as well read to the house the whole of the works of Adam Smith, or, at least, he might just as well introduce all:the arguments, pro. and con., of Adam Smith. Why did not the hon member make a speech of his own ? (Great laughter.) The SplAKEß'said, the hon. member was quite in order in quoting extracts, but, at the same time, the practice was one of degree. (A laugh.) It certainly was not regular to quote a whole book. (Renewed laughter.) t Mr. HAsTIE /then proceeded with his speech, quoting no more, and in a few minutes he had concluded his observations in support of the motion. Mr. MrcRELL seconded the motion, contending that no case had been made out for altering the law, and that it was not demanded by the mercantile community. Mr. JOHN MACGREGOR defended the system of limited liability and said that, though the bill was not the best that could have been constructed, he should give it his best sup- port ;it was only opposed by capitalists. Lord Overstone opposed it; but would his father have done so when he was travelling through Wales as an Unitarian minister? pp3r oirt. m Mr. MACGREGOR, Mr. ed bill. W. BROWN, and one or two other members, the motion was negatived without a division, and the house- went into com- mittee. AfterMr W speechesil s ° from os um After disposing of two clauses, the CHAIRMAN, on the motion of Mr. HORSFALL, reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again on Thursday. Lord Raglan's Annuity Bill was read a second time. The Bills of Exchange Bill was read a third time ; and on the question that it do pass Mr. VA.NCE moved that 'the period after which execution should issue be extended from 12 to 16 days. Mr. HUTCHINS Opposed the motion. The house divided—For the motion, 24; against it, 43: majority against, 19. The bill passed. The house then proceeded to consider the Coal Mines Inspec- tion Bill as amended ; and on the 9th clause, Mr. CAYLEY moved that the words "serious personal injury" be inserted. Sir G. GREY opposed the insertion. The house divided—For the motion, 68 ; against it, 74 : majority against, 6. The bill was ordered to be read the third time to-clay (Tuesday).

Spanish flour quite is per sack lower, but so great a concession was not made in the price of English. Oats, oatmeal, barley. and English beans were likewise rather cheaper and very dull of sate, but Egyptian beans on the contrary were is per quarter higher and in rather better request. PRESTON, JULY 7.—There was a poor show of English wheat at market to-day, which was all cleared at is per windle advance, and good fresh parcels of English and foreign in store, commanded 6d per windle, equal to 2d per 701bs. above the last quotations. Flour is per pack dearer. Barley unaltered. Beans 6d to is per windle higher. Oats neglected, and oatmeal difficult to quit at an abatement of Gd per load. WAKEFIELD, JULY 6.—The wheat trade was firm, with a steady demand, at fully last week's prices. In barley there was no change. Beans sold slowly. Oats and shelling rather dearer. WISBECH. JULY 7.—The supply of wheat is less than last week, evidently drawing into a narrower compass, which, although the weather is very fine, emboldens the farmers to ask and obtain higher prices, and are fully Is. and in some instances as, per qr. dearer to.day. Of spring corn almost nothing offers, and former prices obtained. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JULY 7.—The supply of wheat from the country this morning was small, and went off quickly at an advance of Is to 2s per qr. on the prices of this day week. A good business done in south country and foreign at late rates. Barley fully as dear, and in some instances held for more money. Not much doing in oats : no change in value. Flour continues to move off slowly: no improvement in price. CORK, JULY 7.—The trade in nearly every department has been characterised by langour, and a very limited amount of transactions is reported. Foreign and native wheat fully as dear as before—secondary qualities 2s to 2s 6d per brl. cheaper. Indian corn rather decreased in demand, and 108 to 12s 6d per ton lower than on this day se'nnight. Oats, 3d per brl. advance has been obtained. Barley dull, at Is. per brl. reduction. Flour nomi- nally the same as last week. DUBLIN. JULY 6.—A firmer feeling generally in our corn market to-day.

YESTERDAY. ARE CASINOS A " NUISANCE ?"—CVECEOD v. SMITH.—III this case, John Henry Curchod, proprietor of the Queen's Hotel, Lime-street, was plantiff, and Edward Smith, of No. 11, New- ington, dancing-room proprietor, defendant. The claim was for £5O, " for damages caused by a nuisance to the plantiff as an hotel-keeper, by the defendant having kept a casino, and having had music and dancing and assemblages of prostitutes adjoining the plantiff's hotel for the last six months." The damages were laid at £5O. Mr. Aspinall, instructed by Mr. Snowball, appeared for the plantiff, and Mr. Hime for the defendant. Mr. Aspinall, in opening the case, stated, that the plantiff paid £5OO per year for the building which heoriginally occupied and £l6O per year for part of the adjoining building which he also occupied, the defendant occupying the other part. The hotel was immediately contiguous to the railway station, and therefore in an eligible §ituation for business. Some little time ago, a large building was erected adjoining the original hotel, which the public were told was to be a freemason's hall— o great ceremony was gone through, and the first stone was laid by one of the most moral and religious men in Liverpool, the then Mayor, who would, he (Mr. Aspinall) thought, have been very much shocked,if he had known what use the building was to be put to. Something afterwards occurred by which its original purpose, as a freemason's hall, was diverted. Mr. Curchod had still the lower room of the new building, which was, perhaps, the largest coffee-room in England, divided into two parts, by a large staircase which led from the outside to the story above, which was the dancing room. Mr. Curchod at first occupied the whole of the new building, but after a time he ceased to occupy the middle room, and continued to be the tenant of the lower story, and also the bed-rooms above. He left the intermediate room in the hands of the landlord, who let it to a Mr. Woodhead for £l6O a year, for an exhibition of anatomical figures. That did not pay, and the landlord made an arrangement with the present defendant, who kept casinos in more places than one. It was now fre- quented by prostitutes and persons of the lowest character, and these assemblages were a complete nuisance, inasmuch as they took place immediately contiguous to the chief en,- trance to the plaintiff's house. The dancing and noise were complained of most seriously, and would probably have been in some degree whatever the character of the persons was who assembeled there for the purpose of dancing. The up- roarious noise was most intolerable in the hotel, and had made it impossible for plantiff to carry on his business, which must be against the law, for no person could be allowed to tarry on his business in such a manner as to injure his neighbours. The coffee-room had been rendered perfectly useless at night, the lamps were frequently broken, and a great portion of the ceiling had been shaken entirely away. Then the bed-rooms adove the dancing-room were also rendered perfectly untena- ble from the terrible noise going on underneath; the same nuisance applied mare or less to the original rooms which Mr. Curchod occupied in the hotel itself. In fad, the nuisance was such, that if it could not be abated, the plantiff might, perhaps, have to shut up his house altogether. Mr. Hime,-on behalf of the defendant, took objection to Mr. Aspinall arguing that the plantiff had been injured in his business, on the ground that the action was only stated to be for a nuisance, and not for compensation far loss or damage. His Honour seemed at first inclined 'to allow Mr. Aspinall to amend the wording of his summons,hut after a legal argu- ment, it'was determined that the ease should proceed on the question as to the nuisance atone, Mr. Henry Curchod, the plaintiff,,was then called, and stated that the paid at the present time ,kBOO per annum for the 'entire premises that he occupied. He formerly also c ccupied the room in which the nuisance eemplained of took place,and paid his landlord £l5O per annum rent, and one-third of•any profits he might make by letting it for exhibition purposes. Hehad twelve bed rooms and four dressing rooms over the dancing room kept by the defendant, and a coffee room under .It. He had laid out £l5OO in furnishing and fitting ,np those ''rooms. The defendant had told him that he paid '2EOO per annum for the room he ,occupied. In summer., the 'dancing e.sually commenced about half-past nine o'clock, andin winter -about eight o'clock. He' found 70 or 80 persons, in the woom one night, about three months ago, when he went to -complain to Mr. Smith *beat the plaster falling. He thought about 100 persons would- attend there each night. He could not use his bed rooms andzoffee room whale thedancing was going on. He had seen Mr. Smith on the matter, and told him he should be ,obliged to 'proct,ed against him ton account of the nuisance. Mr. Smith replied brat, if hetil, he would drive him (plaintiff) to London. On being cross-eximined by Mr. Hime, the plaintiff ad- mitted that be had a paled knowledge, 'when'Mr. Smith took the room, for what :purpose it was to he ,ocettpiel. He also once entertaineda proposition that he plaintiff) should supply refreshments to thcroom, and havea communication re-opened with his house; .and admitted that he placed .a counter in it, and lent Mr. Smith a number of chairs. He had had an inter- view with Mr. Mdorhouse, of London, theowner of the build- ing, on the matter, and the latter wished(him to give up all the bed rooms over the casino. He had offered to do that, if Mr. Moorlsouse-would pay him what he hid laid out on them. Nothing came °Mlle offer. He had also offered to sell the de- fendant 100 .chairs at 48. each, which was slot accepted, but that was not the reason why lie had 'brought this action against him. -Mr.John Westmoreland, joiner andbuilder, was next called, and stated that:he was employed by the,plantiff about two or three manthsrago to take up the floors of the bed-room imme- diately over .the dancing-ro6M, .and .ptt down fifty bags of sawdust and•bags of ashes, under theiloeting, with a view of deadening -the :sound of the music. fit had not, however., answered. . . _ Mrs. Stocklran; plaintiff's housekeeper, proved that, for the last ten weeksi-che had occiaPied one of the bed-rooms over the saloon, and it was quite impossible to get any• rest while the dancing was going on, which was usually the ease till twelve o'clock and after. Catherine Maeguire, one of the chambermaids, also gave similar testimony. Henry Murphy, Inspector of Police; dep..ed that he visited uje 11-'ll '"•l444th and 19th of April, and kinna forty women of the town, and several gentlemen there. Music and dancing were going on. He was there again on the 23rd and' ALis of April, and found about the same number there. These visits were made at ten, eleven, and up to twelve o'clock; at which hour theplace was generally closed. He never found it open after twelve. He spoke to Mr. Smith, and told him what kind of characters the women were, and that complaints had been made, and proceedings would be taken against 'him. Defendant replied, " Let them try:: I am prepared. 3 know the man next door is complaining against use, but it is all because I would not purchase the 100 chairs from.hins. He knew that respectable men's wives and sisters will not .come, but the women who come conduct themselves ropirly, and Ido all I can to keep the place respectable.' • George Philip Woolfei a waiter, proved that gentlemen would not remain in the coffee-room after the dancing began. Mr. Duckworth, architect of the Asuilding, deposed that he advised lir. Curchod to place the .sav-dust bags under the bed-room floor,: on account of the noise. Inspector O'Brien gave evidence similar to that of Lnspector Murphy. Mr. Mune then,on behalf of the defendant, submitted that there was no,case, no damage being named in the summons, and no specialdamTe shown. He argued that it was not an- lawful to have antssie and dancing, and-lhat not a tittle of evi- dence had been given on the score of immorality. His Honour thought there was nothing proved as to the nuisance being caused by prostitutes inside the rooms. The same number of decent young women andyoung men dancing there might have made the same noise. The defendant was Mot liable for any .noise they might make<outside of his pre- 'raises. _ _ . _ . In the course of the .ease, Mr:Aspinall referred to the case bf " Van Sauitarf yv.l3alield," in which an action was laid for a nuisance caused toy the ringing. of 'wells, at untimely #►gars, at a RoMich•Convent at Clapham, London. Honour neferred•to this and severalother relevant cases, in ,one of which a boiler maker in this town was sued for a nuisance, and read ,cases to prove that a person could recover where a neighbour's dog caused an annoyance either by day or by akght. After the evidence had heen .gone through, and the legal arguments concluded, his Honour. said the case was too im- portant to be hastily deci43d upon. If he . was prepared to hold that the proprietor. of the. Queen's Hotel was entitled to recover at all, he thought it would be merely a nominal damage any rate. He thought Mr. Aspinall had better amend his information, and-c,laim for only four months. It was quit' e.clear that he could.not recover for six months. He . thought the term Casino, as .applied to the dauoing-room in the present case, was misapplied; and that, whether it was frequentedsby persons of goodcharacter or not was of no im- portance. Ile question was, could, any man so use his house for music and dancing, to the injury of his neighbour, without rendering himself liable to an action ? On that question he would give his judgment on the g4th instant. WHO SHALL DECIDE WHEN .(FLOILSE) DOCTOH2 DIS- .A.OHEE ?—PARRY v. CLARlCE.—This,was a question of horse- warranty. Plaintiff, a car-driver, bought from defendant a bay mare, for which he paid £9. She was warranted to be " sound, a good feeder, and a good worker." Plaintiff, on purchasing her, norticed that she was a•little lame in the•off- fore-foot ; but he was assured that it was "nothing at all." He took the mare .to Chester on one of the race-days, and found her speedily " knocked up." He put a feed of oath before ,her, but she would not touch it. A veterinary surgeon afterwards examined her, and found that she had the glanders and phercy. Plaintiff, therefore, wanted defendant to take her back again, but he would not. Plaintiff then procured a certificate from a veterinary surgeon that she was incurable, and dangerous to keep, and, having sent previous notice to the defendant, had her destroyed. Defendant alleged that he had a veterinary surgeon's opinion that the horse was quite whole.; butane of his own witnesses, a coachman, admitted that he had remonstrated with his master for taking the mare back from Messrs. Busby, to whom he had sold her previous to the plaintilf,:and who returned her into his hands after keeping her two or three days, because she was too slow. He thought she might have contracted the disease while in their stables. His Honour said he thought the plaintiff had proved his ease; but he adjourned his judgment until the next Court in this month. BIRTH.—On the Bth inst., the wife of Mr. John Lindsay, of Upper Parliament-street, of a daughter. BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTERDAY.--Mr. Williams, late a tailor and draper, in James-street, opposite •St. Geoige's Church, came up before Commissioner Perry on his last examination. The case was adjourned for a month, in order that an amend- ed balance sheet might be filed. RE GEORGE CLAus.—On Saturday, at the Liverpool Bankruptcy Court, before Mr. Commissioner Stevenson, Mr. George Claus, of Crosby, a bankrupt, came up for judgment on the question of an act of contempt towards the court, in having torn up a search-warrant issued by his Honour. The Commissioner, taking into consideration the state of excite- ment in which the bankrupt was in at the time, the ample apology he had offered, and the contrition he had expressed, thought the justice of the case might be satisfied by directing that the bankrupt be detained in the custoey of the messenger until the rising of the court that day. ASSAULTING A POLICE-OFFICER.-At the Police-court, on Saturday, John Evans, and John, his son, living in a court in Haigh-street, were charged with assaulting police-constable 139. On the previous evening the officer hearing a great dis- turbance in the prisoners' house went in, and perceiving a quarrel, was about to take the younger one into custody, when the old one attempted a rescue. Another officer then came in, and a struggle ensued, in the course of which 139 was struck a severe blow on the head with a poker. It was pleaded in mitigation of the father's offence, that an excess of paternal feeling had urged him to commit an offence of which he would not otherwise have been guilty. The old man was dischargede but the younger was fined £5, or to be committed for thre, months, 003fMERCIAL and MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT. LITTLE has occurred during the week to dis- turb the quietude, or rather stagnation, which has prevailed ; and, notwithstand'ng the few accounts from the Crimea since the repulse of the 18th of June, the demand for investments on the part of the public has served to keep up the price of the Public Funds at a time when circumstances might have otherwise had a depressing effect. There is the new French loan of £30,000,000, which has just received the sanction of the French Chambers ; and the French Government has also consented to guarantee a Turkish loan of £5,000,000. Money is, howevei, abundant, and the rate of discount on first-class paper is still below the minimum rate fixed by the Bank of England. The returns on Friday show a decrease in "the stock of Bullion to the extent of £150,451 as compared with the previous week, and a diminution of the reserve of unemployed Notes to the amount of £747,785, arising from an increase of discounts, as shown in the aug- mentation of " other securities," by £643,486, and the increase of Notes in circulation, £623,420. Foreign Exchanges are, on the whole, favourable, though Gold, in moderate quantities, continues to be sent to Paris. The arrivals of specie during the week have been large, but are more than balanced by the exports. The total imports amount to nearly £450,000, and the shipments are estimated at about £700,000, of which £5OO was in silver. The gold by the last vessels from Australia having been deliverable at once, some por- tion has found its way into the Bank ; but, had the delivery been spread over four or five days, the pro- bability is that all would have been sent abroad. The shipping returns of the Board of Trade for the month ending the 31st of May have been issued, and exhibit a large increase in the general employment of foreign vessels :--- ENTERED INWARD. 1854. 1855.

IT was generally expected that another attempt at a demonstration in Hyde-park would be made on Sunday, and the expectation was partly realized People began to pour into Hyde-park in the afternoon, by two o'clock, as if there had been no such thing as a policeman or soldier in existence, and by three a concourse had assembled little inferior in point of numbers to the monster gathering of the previous Sunday, the park being left to their undisputed occupation ; for the police were not paraded upon the ground in strong detach- ments, nor hidden behind trees, or in the gardens near the barracks, or in the Humane Society's house, as was the case before; not more than about twenty men of the A division being visible, stationed in couples in various parts of the park, quite away from the general gathering point, and at the park gates, especially at the entrance to the grand drive, to warn the occupants of carriages not to pass that way, owing to which only two or three gigs and a couple of horsemen passed along the drive during the afternoon. Those who thus faced the crowd were received with cries of "Go to church" from a lot of noisy boys, but, to judge by their laughter, more to their amusement than annoyance. The crowd, finding nothing to expend its energies upon, gradually broke up into clusters, and meetings, if they could be so called, were held in various parts, where speeches were delivered by persons having the appearance of working men. Altogether— with the exception of the boys—the conduct of the men was beyond cavil, although the aggregate of the assemblage was less respectable in point of dress than on the previous occasion. Everything proceeded, if noisily, at least peaceably, until about 5 o'clock, when a crowd of boys, finding no carriages to hoot at in the park itself, rushed out at the Apsley house-gate, and commenced hooting carriages passing down Grosvenor- place; following them into Belgrave-square, upon the east side of which they found a quantity of straw spread over the car- riage way, in consequence of the illness of the Earl of Sefton, who resides in the adjoining house, and to which, piling it in heaps, they proceeded to set fire, to the terror of the neigh- bourhood. A gentleman coming out of one of the houses expostulated with them upon their conduct, but the only reply was a volley of stones, which had the effect of driving him in-doors, and his assailants then proceeded to smash the windows of that and the adjoining houses, breaking all in the lower rooms, which were not protected by sun-blinds. They then proceeded down Halkin-street, smashing the windows on each side, and out to Grosvenor-place (at its upper end), where they did the same. Then retracing their steps along the east side of Belgrave-square, they recommenced opera- tions in Upper Belgrave-street, smashing all the lower win- dows indiscriminately; and along the east side of Eaton- square, where, especially at Farrance's Hotel, the smashing was frightful. Wilton-street was next submitted to a similar process ; and in the lower part of Grosvenor-place scarcely a pane of glass in the lower apartments was left whole. They next tried their hands in Grosvenor-street West, in- habited principally by tradesmen, and were in full operation when the approach of a strong detachment of the D division of police put a stop to their wanton spoliation, and scattered them at once. Detachments from the A, B, L, and other divisions were speedily upon the spot, and prevented anything like a recommencement of hostile operations. They took pos- session of the parts attacked, prepared to w.vo pvopy protcutiun that might be required. It was immediately after the cora- -1 mencement of the outrages just recorded that an occurrence took place at the upper end of Grosvenor-place, nearly opposite Halkin-street, which threatened for a moment or two to as- sume the serious features of a popular outbreak. An inspector of police was passing southward, from the park, accompanied by three constables, when a stone was thrown, which struck one of the latter on the face. The officer turned round, and seized a man whom he supposed had thrown the stone, but he denied the fact. The constable, however, persisted; and with his companions proceeded to drag the man along, when the crowd interfered for his rescue, closing upon the police, who at once drew their truncheons, and laid about them right and left. The people gave back blow for blow, using sticks and stones freely, and in the end bonnetted the police, who, being overpowered by numbers, were compelled to give up their prisoner. Elated by this tri- umph, the mob exhibited symptoms of a disposition to use their power arbitrarily, by refusing to allow carriages to pass, but the second vehicle happened to be the cabriolet of Lord Cardigan, whose features being recognised, the word was passed along, and the crowd opening with a loud outburst of cheers, his lordship passed freely along, with all the triumph of a popular ovation, which he acknowledged by bowing from side to side. Directly afterwards the police arrived in force, and with very great temper and moderation cleared the car- riage way, and advised the mob to disperse. Gradually the crowd thinned, many people passing back into the park, but the majority trudging homewards. The window breaking occupied not more than a quarter of an hour, and was the work of boys and lads of the lowest grade, sympathised with, and perhaps incited, by some of those disreputable characters who are always to be found at large as- semblages. The police were kept on duty during the whole of the even. ing, and large numbers of people continued to assemble in and near the park until dusk, but fortunately without the occur- rence of further outrage. Among those whose windows have been more or less in- jured are his Excellency Count Kielmansegge, (the Hanoverian Minister,) Sir James Graham, the Dowager Countess of Somers, the Duke of Marlborough, Farrance's Hotel, the Earl of Gifford, the Hon. Mrs. Arden, Sir J. Buller East, M.P., Admiral Sir George Seymour, Sir Duncan Macdougall, the Earl of Sefton, the Archbishop of York, the Duke of Mon- trose, Lord Charles Wellesley, and very many others. Ad- miral Seymour, on coming out of his house to remonstrate with the mob, received a violent blow on the head with a large stone, and before he could get within doors he received a second blow with a similar missile on the side of his head, from which the blood flowed freely. He was assisted into the house by his servants. The destruction at the Duke of Marl- borough's, at Farrance's Hotel, the Hanoverian Minister's, and Lord Charles Wellesley's, was very great. BABIES BY THE HUNDRED.—On the Ist of April, a. train on the Michigan Southern Railroad, from Adrain to Chicago, numbered twenty-three cars, twenty-one of which contained nine hundred and fifty-four passengers, and there were twenty- five babies in each car, or an aggregate of 225 babies—bound to Chicago and the West.—American paper. A MONSTER SIXPENNY EXCURSION.—On Monday, many thousands of the poorer inhabitants of Christchurch, Surrey, and its vicinity, through the benevolence of the rector, the Rev. Mr. Brown, and a committee of ladies and zentlemen, left the South-Western Railway terminus for Richmond, and other places, for a day's excursion, at the small sum of six- pence for each passenger, the rest of the expenses being defrayed by the rev, gentleman, the committee, and some wealthy in- habitants of the parish. Ova readers may remember a certain Mr. Edward O'Flaherty. the pet of the Popish Brigade and the Peelites, and, by favour of his political friends and patrons, once upon a time Irish Commissioner of Income-tax, who made himself scarce some time ago, and departed in the odour of forgery. A recent trial in the Irish Court of Queen's Bench has set the seal of evidence upon the rumours current at the time, and there can no longer be any doubt, nor need there be any delicacy in stating, that the boon companion and confidential adviser of more than one member of the Aberdeen Cabinet is a common forger.—John Bull. ,` The Imperial Society of Acclimatation" has just closed its session by a sitting at which some interesting communications were made. One was to the effect that 155,000 tubercles of the dioscorea batatas of China, which can very satisfactorily in cases of emergency replace the potato, have been distri- buted, with proper instructions for their cultivation, amongst the various countries of Europe. Silk worms, from China, had arrived at maturity at Paris and at Turin, for which the leaves of the ordinary oak of Europe will serve as food; and, in addition, the acorns of two kinds of oaks growing in China, and much liked by the worms in question, have been brought over and planted. M. Guerin Meneville exhibited to the mem- bers some pieces of plush of great beauty made by a manufac- turer of Paris from the silk of the oak worms. PRESENTATION OF A BURMESE BELL TO THE CITY OF YORK.—Our readers will probably be aware that the officers of the 51st Regiment had decided on presenting the city of York with a bell which was taken at the capture of Rangoon, in April, 1853, in which achievement that gallant regiment took distinguished part. Arrangements were subsequently made by the Lord Mayor for the reception of the curiosity, and the interesting ceremony took place on Tuesday last. The bell, which weighs nearly 6 cwt., and is covered with Burmese characters, said to be quotations from Bhuddist works, arrived in the morning of that day, and was suspended from a triangle in the Guildhall. Captain Irby (who presented the bell) said he had been commissioned by the officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers of the 51st Regiment, to present the trophy of war before them to the ancient city of York. The bell had been brought from Burmah, having been captured at Rangoon by the 51st Regiment, who played no mean part there during the late war. The bell was captured from a pa- goda at Rangoon, and the regiment valued it as a memorable trophy of their success during the Burmese war.—York I Herald.

I_IVERPOOL DISPENSARIES.—The Committee of the Liverpool Dispensaries beg to acknow- ledge the 'following Donations towards liquidating the present heavy Debt of the Charity, and earnestly to APPEAL to the Public for support. In consequence of Cholera of a most virulent and fatal character having visited the town last year, the opera- tions of the Institution were most arduous and extensive. The number of cases attended and supplied with Medicine were 40,732, exceeding those of the previous year by 5,318. From various causes the expenses were unavoidably augmented, whilst, concur- rently with the increased expenditure, and the debt remaining from the previous year, the income suffered dimination to the extent of upwards of £6OO. New SUBSCRIPTIONS are urgently solicited, as the present amount falls considerably short of the annual expenditure. If this inadequate support and pressure of debt be suffered to continue, there will be no alternative but to limit the operations of the Charity. The Committee earnestly hope that an Institution which has been in existence nearly eighty years, and which affords aid annually to thousands of the suffer- ing poor, thereby arresting misery and disease to a vast extent, will plead eloquently in its behalf, and be responded to by their fellow-townsmen with ready sympathy and support. JONATHAN BROOKS, President. Dispensaries' Office, 21, South Castle-street, July, 1855.

CLERICAL OBITUARY. June 25, at St. Peter's Rectory, Wallingford, the Rev. W. C. Frith, D.C.L., at 70. June 30, the Rev. Bryan Faussett, of Heppington, Rent, aced 43 A NUMBER OF CLERGYMEN of the deanery of Doncaster with the sanction of the Archbishop, are about to establish a book-hawking association for South Yorkshire. THE REV. J. P. WARD, late curate of Much Woolton, near Liverpool, and formerly of Leeds and Skipton, has been ap- pointed vicar of St. John's, Holbeck. involving the GREAT ECCLESIASTICAL SALE by auction, the religious teaching of no fewer than 48,000 people, is an- nounced to take place early in the present month. The pro- perty that is to come to the hammer is the rectory of Stock- port. According to the Clergy List, the property thus offered for sale belongs to Lord Vernon.—Globe. SIR CULLING EARDLEY, a wealthy meddling baronet, who wishes to keep one foot in the church and one in the meeting- house, and who is a promoter of " free churches" without bishops, has been attempting to get admitted into Oriel Col- lege, without submitting to the discipline required of Church- men, and without acknowledging himself to be anything else than a Churchmen. Dr. Hawkins, the Provost, tells him, "One of the two—churchman or dissenter—you must be, and not both at once." Sir Culling, like some others in the pre. sent day, wants to be both, by turn, when it suits his purpose. —English Churchman. UNION OF CONTIGUOUS BENEFICES.—A bill brought from the Lords (July 2) enacts that contiguous benefices may be united under this act, without regard to aggregate population or yearly value. On the representation of the inhabitants of any small parish that their benefice 'night be advantageously united, the bishop of the diocess will inquire into the circum- stances of the case, and submit a certified statement to the Church Building Commissioners. These latter may propose a scheme for the transfer of surplus revenues to poor parishes. Protests against the scheme may be made, and these are to be referred to the Judicial Committee, of whom the archbishops and bishops, members of the Privy Council, are to form part for the purposes if this act. The Queen in Council is empow- ered to make orders approving every such scheme. The Church Building Commissioners may also propose schemes for the erection of new churches or parsonages, the removal of old churches or parsonages, the sale of sites, &c. No burial- ground or site of church wholly surrounded by a grave-yard is to be sold. The Bishop of London is empowered to set apart one of the churches in London, otherwise to be pulled down, for service in Welsh. The sites of the churches to be pulled down are to be vested in the Church Building Commissioners. This bill will tend to promote the proposed removal of some of the old city churches. WEST INnxEs.--The following is an interesting extract of a letter dated St. John's, Antigua, March 27, 1855 :—" We had a Confirmation in our cathedral a few days ago, and I never witnessed a service more solemnly and impressively performed. The candidates were few—only eight ; conse- quently we had none of that tumult and excitement which ever accompany the service at home, arising from the large number of persons brought together. Our Bishop prefers holding frequent Confirmations, and in each church, as occasion may require. Might not our Bishops at home adopt this plan ; even though it should impose upon them additional labour ? The benefit to the confirmed would be great, and one of our most solemn and important services would be relieved of a character which does not belong to it, but which nullifies almost all the good of it. On the present occasion the candidates, both male and female, came dressed in white, a custom which is also adopted by the females at our monthly communions, and which has a most pleasing effect. Seats were provided for them near the chancel rails, and the Bishop delivered a most impressive extempore address, taking as the ground of his observations the Preface to the Confirmation and after the rite of Confirmation was administered, made some further remarks most suitable to the position of those just confirmed. Coming fresh from home, I was much struck with the favourable contrast of the circumstances attending the solemn rite as administered here. And, indeed, I must say that the beauty of all our Church's services is more fully seen in the manner in which they are conducted in this. colony." ST. AIDAN'S THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE, BIRKENHEAD.

A PHILOSOPHER'S VIEW OF LONDON..-London.!— "The needy villain's general home ! The common sewer of Paris and of Rome !" as Johnson called it. Its streets paved with guilt and gold, where honour starves in tatters, and the heart- ache is not confined to Chancery-lane ! Yet the arena, still, of mind, energy, benevolence, and withal of selfishness, indolence, and incapacity. It is a whirlpool of endless changes, save one---namely, that care always rises to the top, from the great sedi- ment of original corruption below ! It is a current so rapid in the stream of life, that all are swamped by it, except the strong swimmer, whose inborn resolu- tion defies it, or the wealthy voyager, whom fortune furnishes with a bridge or a vessel to pass it. It is the pool of seething vice and treachery, where, aided by the thickened scum of fraud and flattery, the knave victimises the fool ; where the largest sharks are most admired ; while the simple gudgeon feeds the pike, and is laughed at, to boot ! Its shores are covered with wrecks of all classes and ages, amongst which we meet a fragment, now and then, of exquisite grace and beauty, showing marks of early care, and of the bright hopes once entertained about the future ; but the noble vessel has gone down, probably from want of a proper pilot, and the stream runs too fast to notice such common things, now ! The anchorage of this great metropolitan bay is treacherous---its shoals innumerable---its swelling waves now rise with youth's fondest hopes---now sink and open into gulfs dark as the abysses of men's unfathomable fears ! Such is London, to the philosopher who stands by the side of the stream, and weeps at, or derides it all !---Free- mason's Magazine. A CURIOSITY OF LONDON.—To my mind a certain worthy, honourable, and gallant member of parliament, colonel of militia, and extensive landowner, is to the full as curious as any of the odds and ends of anti- quarianism ; as London Stone, at St. John's Gate ; as Padlock House, at Knightsbridge ; as old Bartelmy Fair—shows, sausages, sweeps, and all ; as a Wardour- street man-in-armour, or as (the hirsute appearance of our dear colonel being taken into consideration) one of the by-gone lions in the Tower. Old people down in Lincolnshire, too, will, in after years, relate how the gallant colonel, disdaining and denouncing bribery and treating at elections, nevertheless gave each voter's wife a pound of green tea on his own septennial return to parliament, and how he boldly avowed the fragrant gift in Mr. Speaker's presence, and announced his intention of repeating it at every general election until his (the colonel's) dissolution, an event that may be expected at about the same time as the Greek Kalends. Veterans in Chelsea and Kilmainham, veterans in large cuffed great-coats, with wooden legs, with patches over their eyes—" shouldering their crutches and showing how fields were won"—will tell how their first essays at soldiering were made in the gallant colonel's own regiment of militia, and how, after arduous field-days, he was wont to treat each rank and file, down to the very drummers, to a pint of strong ale. Parliament and Palace-yard will tell how the colonel strode over its broad pavement, his umbrella under his arm, his wide-hemmed trousers flapping over his wellingtons,his unbrushed hat at the back of his head, his huge shirt collars so stiff and sharp and pointed en avant, that they seemed couched like lances, and ready to charge any number of windmills, ; his eyeglass, with its broad black ribbon fluttering in the breeze ; his eyes wild staring; his marvellous unkempt locks tangling, flying, eddying over his face. His praises will be sung in the Grand Avenue of Covent Garden Market, and fruiterers and florists will tell how he smelt mellons, and tasted grapes, and bought bouquets of their grandsires. White-headed auctioneers will recount how he bought ancient weapons and armour, strange curiosities and nicknacks at public sales. Ah ! could he but sell himself as a curiosity ! What Bernal, what Hope, what Soane, what Roach Smith collection could vie with the museum where he was placed.—lrouse- hold Words. THE REV. SIDNEY SMITH'S " ex- tract the following from Lady Holland's memoirs of her father, the late Rev. Sidney Smith :—A man-ser- vant was too expensive, so I caught up a little garden. girl, made like a milestone, christened her Bunch, put a napkin in her hand, and made her my butler. The girls taught her to read, Mrs. Sidney to wait, and I undertook her morals ; Bunch became the best butler in the county. * * * Coming down one morning at Foston, I found Bunch pacing up and down the passage before her master's door, in a state of great perturbation. What is the matter, Bunch ? " Oh, Ma'am, I can't get no peace of mind till I've got master shaved, and he's so late this morning ; he's not come down yet." This getting master shaved consisted in making ready for him, with a lirge painter's brush, a thick lather in a huge wooden bowl, as big as Mambrino's helmet, which she always con- sidered as the most important avocation of the morn- ing. * * I was coming down stairs the next morning (she continues), when Mr. Smith sud- denly said to Bunch, who was passing, " Bunch, do you like roast duck or boiled chicken ?" Bunch had probably never tasted either the one or the other in her life, but answered, without a moment's hesitation, " Roast duck, please sir," and disappeared. I laughed. " You may laugh," said he, " but you have no idea of the labour it has cost me to give her that decision of character. The Yorkshire peasantry are the quickest and shrewdest in the world ; but you can never get a direct answer from them ; if you ask them even their own names, they always scratch their heads, and say,. A's sur ai don't knaw, sir ;' but I have brought Bunch to such perfection, that she never hesitates now on any subject, however difficult. I am very strict with her. Would you like to hear her repeat her crimes ? She has them by heart, and repeats them 'every day. "-Come here, Bunch (calling out to her) ; come and repeat your crimes to Mrs. Marcet ;" and Bunch, a clean, fair, squat, tidy little girl, about ten or twelve years of age, quite as a matter of course, as grave as a judge, without the least hesitation, and with a loud voice began to repeat, " Plate-snatching, gravy- spilling, door-slamming, blue-bottle fly-catching, and curtsey-bobbing." " Explain to Mrs. Marcet what blue-bottle fly-catching is." Standing with my mouth open and not attending, sir." "And what is curtsey- bobbing ?" " Curtseying to the centre of the earth, please sir." " Good girl ! now you may go. She makes a capital waiter, I assure you ; on state occa- sions Jack Robinson, my carpenter, takes off his apron and waits too, and does pretty well, but he sometimes naturally makes a mistake, and sticks a gimlet into the bread instead of a fork." THE MORNING OF WATERLOO.—In Brussels: the dawn of the day (18th June, 1815) on which Waterloo was fought, saw all afoot, and in spite of the heavy rain which fell the Parc was soon crowded. For awhile all was still. No sound of firing came over the forest, neither were other signs of war afforded to them, save in the occasional arrival of small bodies of wounded from the field of Quatre Bras, and the hurried visits of the medical attendants to such as already occupied the hospitals. But by and by there was a change. The roar of cannon burst upon them suddenly ; they knew that the battle had begun, and from that moment terror became so predominant in every bosom, that the idea of its probably ending in the triumph of the allies seems not to have occurred to any one. A hundred Napoleons had been vainly offered for a pair of horses ; and the scene of confusion which it presented on Saturday evening surpassed all con- ception. The certainty of the defeat of the Prussians, of their retreat, and the retreat of the British army, prepared the people to expect the worst. Aggravated reports of disaster and dismay continually succeeded to each other ; the despair and lamentations of the Belgians ; the anxiety of the English to learn the fate of their friends ; the dreadful spectacle of the waggon loads of wounded coming in, and the terrified fugitives flying out in momentary expectation of the arrival of the French; the streets, the roads, the canals covered with boats, carriages, waggons, horses, and crowds of unfortunate people flying from this scene of horror and. danger, formed altogether a combination and tumult, terror and misery, which cannot be described. Num- bers even of ladies, unable to procure any means of conveyance, set off on foot and walked in the dark beneath the pelting storm to Malines ; and the distress of the crowds who now filled Antwerp it is utterly impossible to conceive. Even in Antwerp itself many did not feel themselves seem, and therefore escaped as they best could, some to Breda and others to Ostend.

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. PARLIAMENTA..RY INTELLIGENCE. HOUSE OF LORDS. TUESDAY. THE LATE LORD RAGLAN.—After the Clerk had read her Majesty's most gracious message, informing their lordships of her intention to confer a signal mark of her favour on the widow and heir of the late Lord Raglan, Lord PANMURE moved an address, in answer to her Majesty's message, and, in doing so, reminded the house of the distinguished services and glorious career of the soldier whose memory they were now called on to honour. In his death it might be truly said that all England had to lament the loss of an intrepid soldier, a great commander, an accomplished gentleman, and a noble and distinguished citizen. The address was, as usual, the echo of the message.—Lord DERBY said he was most anxious to take the earliest opportunity of expressing his concurrence in the graceful tribute which Lord Panmure had paid to the memory of the gallant commander whose career had shed ad- ditional lustre on the annals of the noble house from which he sprang. Of his military qualities it would ill become him (Lord Derby) to speak, but he would assert that few men placed in the position recently filled by Lord Raglan would have so completely overcome the difficulties and embarrass- ments of a divided command, and thus consolidated the feel- ings of mutual confidence and goodwill which happily existed between the allied armies. In conclusion, he begged most cordially to support the address.—Lord HARDINGE, after an intimacy of fifty-six years, was most anxious to bear testimony to the great merits of Lord Raglan, whose powers and abilities he was convinced were much higher than they were commonly supposed to be.—The Duke of CAMBRIDGE and Lord CAR- DIGAN declared their conviction that Lord Raglan had evinced great tact and capacity in a most difficult position, and were followed by Lord GALLOWAY, the Duke of BEAUFORT, Lord ELLESMERE, Lord GRA Nvmx, and Lord BROUGHAM, each of whom spoke in the highest terms of Lord Raglan's merits.— The motion was then agreed to nem. con. The Friendly Societies Bill, and the Woolmer Forest Bill were read a third time and passed. Their lordships adjourned at twenty minutes to seven o'clock. The Burial of Poor Persons Bill and the West India Relief Loans Arrangement Bill passed through committee. The Union of Contiguous Benefices Bill, the Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Continuance Bill, the Commons' Enclosure (N 0.2) Bill, and the Treasurers of Counties ( Ireland) Bill were read a second time. STAGE CARRIAGES DIITIES.—The house went into com- mittee, and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved reso- lutions, upon which to found a bill to reduce the duties on stage carriages from lid. to ld. a-mile, and the supplementary license to is. The alteration would cause a loss of revenue of not less than £50,000. The resolutions were agreed to, and the house resumed. The Lunatic Asylums and Regulations Acts Amendment Bill was read a second time. The Public Libraries and Museums Bill passed through committee.—The house adjourned at three o'clock. FRIDAY. The NewDwellingmrrits were Houseserordered re(Scotland)lßt einl lh wa n s, na st sheed. room of the Hon. Craven Fitzhardinge Berkeley, deceased. For Eveshanl, in the room of the Hon. Chas. Lennox Grenville Berkeley, who had accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. LORD DUNDONALD'S SCIIEME.—In answer to a question, Sir C. WOOD said, that the plan was referred to a committee, and was so very obvious that it required no explanation on the part of the Earl of Dundonald to render it perfectly intelligible. TEE RIOTS IN HYDE PA.RK.—In reply to a question whether it was the intention of the Government to grant an inquiry into the conduct of the police in Hyde Park on Sunday last, Sir G. GREY repeated what he had said on Thursday, that in the case of any specific complaint of the conduct of the police he should feel it to be his duty to institute a strict inquiry. He had received a very large number of representations on the subject, some of them complaining of the misbehaviour of the police, others describing their conduct as marked by modera- tion and forbearance. Facilities were afforded for remedy against the misconduct of the police ; at the same time, he was willing to institute a searching investigation into any allegations brought before him.—A conversation ensued, in the course of which Mr. G. DUNDAS said:— So we are threatened with another demonstration next Sunday, and men are to go armed in order to defy the authority of the police ! I hope that the right hon. baronet will take efficient means to prevent any such collision. I may remind the right hon. baronet that prevention is better than cure, and I will go further, and say that nothing will frighten a mob more than the crash upon the pavement of the trail of a 6-pounder. (Cries of " Oh, and some sensation.) The subject shortly afterwards dropped, but was subsequently resumed by Mr. ROEBUCK calling the attention of the Chair to language employed by Mr. G. Dundas, which he character- ised as unworthy of an English gentleman, and of the house to listen to.—The SPEAKER ruled that the language excepted to should have been noticed immediately.—Mr. G. DUNDAS ex- plained the meaning he intended to convey by the expressions he had used. _ _ _ MAILS TO AIISTRALIA.—In reply to Sir J. PAKINGTON, Mr. WILSON stated that the arrangement made for the con- veyance of the mails to Australia by way of the Cape of Good Hope had been abandoned, but that the contract for the con- veyance of a mail by way of India every other month was merely suspended in consequence of the Peninsular and Ori- ental Steampacket Company being unable to procure vessels to replace those on Government service in the Black Sea. A proposal had been made by the Admiralty to that company at the request of the Treasury, to convey the mails by way of India to Australia every month, but the company werewait- ing the return of some of their vessels before giving a reply to Government. Questions and answers on various subjects of like impor- taw were exchanged. MICHINERY.—A motion for the production of correspon- dence between the Secretary of State for the Home Depart- ment and certain magistrates of Oldham, on the subject of a prosecution before the said magistrates of a manufacturer for having on his premises unfenced machinery, from which neglect the death of an individual resulted, was, after some discussion, agreed to. THE VIENNA CONFERENCE.—Mr. M. GIBSON asked for ex- planations from the Government relative to the opposition of her Majesty's ministers to the views of their colleague, the late British plenipotentiary at the Vienna Conferences, in reference to the plan proposed by Austria to be submitted to Russia for the purpose of putting "an end to Russian pre- ponderance in the Black Sea," as stated in the circular addressed by Count Buol to the diplomatic agents of Austria, dated Vienna, May 25. He read a passage from Count Buol's circular, and expressed his belief that Lord J. Russell went to Vienna with a bona fide intention to make an honourable peace ; but that his col- leagues appeared to have entertained different views, and to have desired to avoid the chance of peace. How could he, then, reconcile the retention of office with the statements he had declared at Vienna ? If he had changed his opinion, let him frankly avow it. He cautioned the First Minister that a day of retribution would come ; the Administration had, he said, sacrificed the flower of the British army, as well as millions of the public money ; they bad concealed from Parlia- ment facts material to guide its opinion, and the course they had taken was calculated to bring great disasters upon the country, which would visit them upon their heads.— Lord J. RU-SSELL referred in detail to the consultations at the Congress respecting the mode of solving the third point, in which Count Buol admitted, he said, that the best mode was to obtain from Russia a limitation of her force in the Black Sea ; but he suggested that there was another mode—that of strengthening Turkey, instead of weakening Russia. Ulti- mately he proposed that there should be a stipulation for a counterpoise of forces, whereby, if Russia increased her naval power in the Black Sea beyond its then dimensions, England, France, Austria, and Turkey might augment theirs in propor- tion:; and, further, that there should be a treaty by which. Austria, Great Britain, and France guaranteed the indepen- dence and integrity of Turkey, Russia being made a party to that guarantee. It appeared to him that these provisisgoeednnsddhitoid cos ,contain a opinion. securityTiA,.ftorriaTun Grkoevye,rnamnednthehandadoffneortedchtoan Russia the alternative either to consent to this proposition, 'or -to limit her naval power in the Black Sea, and that, if Russia refused, it should be considered a. cases Belli. His honourable colleagues in her Majesty's government, however, came to the conclusion that the proposition did not afford a safe basis for further negotiation. To the question why, after this, he remained a member of the Administration, he replied that if he had left office on this decision he should not have acted consistently with the rule which had always guided his conduct ; and that, whatever might be his senti- ments upon this great question, he thought it to be his duty to continue his support to the present head of the cabinet, and not, by quitting office, weaken its stability.—Mr. COBDEN expressed his grief and surprise at the speech of Lord J. Russell. The complaint was that when he returned from Vienna he promised to do his best to induce the government to agree to a proposition which he approved, and that he had not informed the house that the terms submitted by Austria had his approval. Instead of telling the house frankly what was his opinion as to the great question of peace or war, he had made speeches denouncing the en- croachments of Russia, the effect of which was to make the country believe that he had come from Vienna despairing of any termsof peace, while he knew right well that lie had come back bringing a proposition which he had told Count Buol he would advoeate in his Cabinet. Lord Sohn had, he con- sidered, abandoned his trust by not resigning office when he found he tould not carry out his views, and he looked upon his conduct with the more regret from the danger to which his example exposed the cause of representative government. He advised the house not to be frightened at the prospect of a change of ministry ; he would infinitely prefer that the other side should be in power, and he looked with regret at the vote he had given which displaced the ministry of Lord Derby, a change which had cost the country, in his opinion, 100 millions of money and thousands of lives.—Lord PAL- MERSTON defended the conduct of Lord J. Russell and the course taken by him, and, with reference to the proposal of Austria, the governments of England and France had given to it their most anxious and earnest consideration, and had de- cided, not hastily or upon light grounds, that it did not furnish that real security for peace for which they were bound to look. He reviewed the transactions of the war on the Danube, in the Baltic, and in the Black Sea, and in the Sea of Azoff, observ- ing that the result was that the territory of our ally had been evacuated, and we occupied an important position in that of Russia. With regard to the regret expressed by Mr. Cobden that the government was not in other hands, he felt assured, he said, that the country would support no Administration that would not carry on the war with vigour and conduct it to a successful issue.—Mr.Roentrex observed that there were two matters involved in this discussion—one the character and conduct of Lord J. Russell, the other the wisdom of the war. On the first he concurred with Mr. Gibson and Mr. Cobden ; on the second, he agreed with Lord Palmerston. He examined the conduct of Lord John Russell in relation to the Aus- trian proposal, considering it to be inconsistent with the perfect honesty of a public man.—Mr. DISRAELI said that evening would be memorable for the unex- ampled revelation made by Lord J. Russell, who had ad- mitted that, employed in the high position of Minister Pleni- potentiary to negotiate on the subject of peace or war, and having arrved at a solution of the difficulty, and accomplished a result that would secure peace to the country, he returned to England, and, strange to say, finding no sympathy on the part of his colleagues, who determined upon the prosecution of a war which, in his opinion, ought to have terminated, ac- ceded to their suggestions, and remained, in a Cabinet of War, a Minister of Peace. The reasons he had given for this ex- traordinary course were no less singular than the course itself. The country, however, ought to consider the vital question, whether we were to have peace or war; the question ought not to be an open one in the Cabinet, which, in either case, ought to be unanimous, or there could be no chance of vigour or efficient action. The effect of that night's debate would have an evil tendency. The impression in the Cabinets of the continent, however, must have been that when our Plenipotentiary accepted the Austrian pro- position he represented the mind and policy of his own Ca- binet. Why did not his colleagues ratify his labours ? When a minister of the cabinet was sent to negotiate a peace, and succeeded, and, although his labours were not ratified, remained in the cabinet, the house had a right to expect from a govern- ment so situated a frank explanation of the reasons which in- duced them not to accept the result of his labours. Mr. Dis- RAELI concluded by saying :—"And this is the end of this im- portant session—this is the end of breaking up so many governments—this is the end of your great national intentions, great national disasters—this is the end of the government, at the head of which you were to have a minister of surpassing energy, and, no doubt, transcendant experience—this is the end of the ministry which was to put the right men in the right places—this is the end, that even peace and war have become mere party considerations,that the interests of the coun- try are sacrificed to the menace of a majority, and that the tumults and turbulent assemblies of Downing-street are to baffie all the sagacity of all the conferences of Vienna."- -Sir G. GREY complained of the erroneous construction put by Mr. Disraeli upon the statement of Lord John Russell, who had not said, as had been assumed, that he had brought over a proposal assented to by Russia; on the contrary, the principle of that proposal, involving a limitation of the naval power of Russia in the Black Sea, Russia had declared she would never accede to. He denied that the Cabinet was a divided one. They were unanimous in considering the war just and necessary, and in the prosecution of it they were a united Cabinet. The house then went into a Committee of Supply, but the chairman immediately reported progress. The Merchant Shipping Act Amendment Bill went through committee, with some unimportant amendments. The Bills of Lading (No. 2) bill, the Endowed Schools (Ire- land) bill, and the West Indies Relief Loans Arrangement bill were read a third time and passed. The house went into committee on the Gold Wedding-Rings bill, the object of which was to restore to gold wedding-rings the stamp which had been inadvertently removed from them by a clause introduced into a bill of last session.

Not satisfied with Mr. Best's scholarly exhibition of the varied powers of the grand organ, by the performance of a series of compositions to visitors who listen, the directors of the estab- lishment call upon a gentleman and a musician to " play the people out." He is to acccompany the shuffling of feet, the racing down stairs, the calls of parties to " keep together," the requests " not to shove," the squabble for canes, parasols, and umbrellas, and the recitative in which cabs are summoned to the door. And when the last lounger is out, the gentleman and musician may leave off. But this is not all. The direction is good enough to select a composition fit to be applied to this noble art-purpose—and they select Mendelssohn's " Bridal Chorus," which, as everybody knows, is just the thing to be trampled to pieces by a crowd of wearied sight-seers, anxious to escape. If the directors could get a Raphael, they would, in the same spirit, lay it down as a door-mat, for the greater luxury of their departing patrons. Mr. Best, having in vain remonstrated against the vulgarity, very properly resigns. He will not desecrate Mendelssohn, and "play the people out." If the Panopticon people conduct all their arrangements in this fashion, and without regard to what is due to art, the public, which soon comprehends such things, will discover it. And then the next organist will have a very much harder task to attempt than "playing people out," namely, that of "playing them in." The directors have got a Novum Organum, and a noble one, but they need not, therefore, behave like fat Bacons. FLOWERS THAT ARB ALWAYS FALLING OFF.—Bachelor's Buttons. prompts him to soar above the mediocrity which characterises modern representation, where seats are sought to found a trade or ephemeralise a speculation, can have his objects pro- moted by one who is qualified, by Parliamentary experience and education, to direct the preliminary studies to such high and important duties. Address, &c.—Gentlemen, whose ambi- tion leads them to public (house) life, generally find the house open to them, and their measures are carried without opposi- tion—measures which, if not full of spirit, are at least not deficient in "head," although somewhat heavy at bottom ; and these houses offer some advantages which the others do not possess, for the debate is always adjourned at twelve, by which time our " Bill" is most often laid—under the table. To AIITHORS.—He who writes what is wrong, wrongs what is right.

AGRICULTURE. To keep cows from corn, take a quart of train oil, and as much turpentine and bruised gunpowder; boil them together ; and, when hot, dip pieces of rags in the mixture, and fix them on atieks in the field. About four are sufficient for an acre of corn., Tis greater part of the animals and poultry exhibited in the Champ de Mars were sold for the most part at high prices. H.R.H. Price Albert sold all his oxen, but refused to sell his, cocks 'and hens, though as much as I,Boof. were offered for one ,cock and two hens. One cock and two hens of the Dorking breed fetched 750 f., and a cock and hen of the same breed 400 f. EA.nr.y SHEEP-SHEARING.—It may not be generally known that early-clipped sheep, from the sudden transition from heat to cold; fall off instantaneously, and to an extent, beyond all belief,,except those who have witnessed it. Being aware that fat sheep travel to market with greater ease to themselves when relieved of ther fleeces, we would strongly recommend that the moment they are clipped they should be carefully rubbed • over with some fatty matter, previously saponified, and .from.the nature and properties of the composition it will be found a bad conductor of heat, and will, therefore, on that account, prevent in some measure the great deterioration of the animal. SUPPLY OF GUANO.—Consular despatches communicated to the Board of Trade, since the Ist of January last, respecting additional sources of the supply of guano, were lately pub- lished. lt hence appears that deposits of guano have been discovered in the islands composing the canton of San Andres, in the • province of Carthagena; in the islands belonging to the Ecuador, off the coast of the province of Manabi ; in an islet, called " Hergest's Rocks," situated near the island of Nukahiva, in the Marquesas group ; on the east end of the island of Guadaloupe ; on St. Mark's Island; in the proximity of the Bay of St. Bartholomew, on a small rock near the south- west end of the Island of Natividad ; and on Maria Island. It is also probable that considerable deposits of guano exist along that unfrequented portion of Peru, extending from Chincha Islands, in 13.40 to 15.50 each latitude, from the River Pisco to the River Acari, a distance of 200 miles in a south-. eastern direction, over a sandy. desert. The extraction of guano from the islands in the canton of San Andres has been prohibited by the Governor of Carthagena.

FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. MONDAY MORNING. THE parliamentary proceedings of the past week have been marked by peculiarities of very opposite character. Both branches of the Legislature, in obedience to the expressed wishes of the Crown, and in perfect accordance with the national feeling, have been engaged in recording the national sense of the great and valuable services of the late Lord RAGLAN, and accompanying that testimony by making some provision for those who were near and dear to the late com- mander of our armies in the Crimea. A proper degree of unanimity on this important subject was displayed by both houses ; and the attempt of Mr. GIBBON to foist some of his crude theories into a consideration of the claims of the hero was properly repelled by the House of Commons. A resolu- tion was unanimously adopted by both houses, recommending a pension of £l,OOO per annum to Lady RAGLAN during her life, and to date from the 2nd of the present month ; and also another annuity of £2,000 a-year to his Lordship's successor, the present Lord RAGLAN and his heir, was also adopted with the same unanimity. In recommending the adoption of this course, Lord PANMURE, Lord HARDINGE, the Duke of CAM- BRIDGE, the Earl of CARDIGAN, Lord BROUGHAM, the Earl of DERBY, and other peers, vied with each other in bearing testimony to the great merits of the gallant general, whose military virtues they severally extolled, while they also bore witness to his numerous personal excellences. In the House of Commons, the same course of emulation, in lauding the memory of the deceased, was observed by Lord PALMERSTON, Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Sir DE LACY EVANS, Admiral WAL- COTT, and Mr. DISRAELI, the latter tastefully remarking that " half a century of public service—always valuable and some- times illustrious—could not be allowed to pass away without record and recognition. The career of Lord RAGLAN was remarkable. Forty years ago he sealed with his blood the triumphant close of a great struggle against the danger of universal empire ; and, after that long interval, he had given his country his life, in order to guard it from the menace of a new and overwhelming enemy." As already stated, the only divergence from entire unanimity in reference to the graceful- tribute, thus paid on all hands to departed worth, came withcha-- racteristic mal-appropriateness from the peace party. With his- customary stolidity of purpose, Mr. MILNERGIBSON interrupted. the harmony of the proceeding by interjecting an address upon the iniquity of hostilities, and propounding a series of questions- as to the future policy of the cabinet, in relation to the conduct of the war. The house was in no temper for indulging in such unseemly freaks : it felt the business before it was business, of deep importance to the national character and honour ; it sym- pathised entirely with the indignant repudiation of such a course contained in the withering observations delivered in answer to it by Lord PA.L3IERSTOIf, who declared "he should not, on the present occasion, be led away by the taunts of Mr. GIBSON, or any of his colleagues, to discuss the Vienna confe- rences, or to encounter the hostility of the peace party." In this view of the case, the house quite concurred with the views expressed by the PREMIER, and the resolutions were put and carried nemine contradicente. So far, the proceedings in both branches of the legislature have been creditable to them, and in harmony with the feelings of the nation. On Friday night an occurrence took place in the House of Commons, calculated seriously to damage the little reputation Lord Josh RUSSELL had contrived to retain for himself. On the occasion referred to, Mr. M. Gussox extorted from our recent envoy at the- Vienna conferences, that he ( Lord Jouß RUSSELL) concurred. in the third point proposed by Count BUOL, and agreed to recommend it for the adoption of his colleagues. That, on his return, he did urge it on the acceptance of the British cabinet, but was out-voted on the question ; and, instead of retiring - from the ministry which he had endeavoured to compromise,. he concurred in the rejection of the proposal, and, with singu- lar inconsistency, defended in parliament the rejection of that offer, which, as a plenipotentiary, he had approved of, and which, as a cabinet minister, he had endeavoured to secure the adoption of! Well might Mr. DISRAELI say, that evening.. would be " memorable for its revelations—memorable for confessions more extraordinary than any ever made in that house. The noble lord had returned from Vienna, as he now confessed, the advocate of propositions for peace which had been rejected by his colleagues, and. he then became the zealous advocate of a proposition for war, while privately he was of opinion that peace ought to have been, and could have been, obtained." "We own," says the Daily News, "we should have hesitated. to believe any other testimony than that of Lord JOHN himself on such a subject; but as he has thought fit to place • the matter ou record, we have no choice but to express-our dis- appointment at the course he has pursued, and our astonish- ment at the reasons he has set forth as its justification." With such revelations as the one of Friday night, and some others of a scarcely less startling character, how can the Cabinet expect to enjoy the confidence of Parliament or the respect of the people ? With such discordant views-upon the vital questions of peace or war, how can the Ministry expect to be believed sincere in their pretensions to carry on the war with energy and alacrity ? Is not the influenceof such divided counsels a sufficiently strong and pointed explanation of the inefficient manner in which the war has been. conducted? How stands Lord Joins RUSSELL'S own position in respect to it ? At the opening of the present Parliamentary session, his lordship, in the exigence of his rampant zeal for an energetic conduct of hostilities, upset the Government of which he was then a member, because it lacked the element of capacity for vigorously carrying on the war. On the accomplishment of this feat, a real war Ministry was of course formed, and the. valiant member for the City of London contrived to wriggle himself into it. Having succeeded so far, his next move was. to obtain the appointment of Plenipotentiary, in which elle- racter he endeavoured to bring about a close of the war on terms, which he afterwards, in Parliament, denounced aapusil- lanimous and discreditable to oar arms—as a mockery and a. delusion—yet which he had himself expressed approbation of and done his best to wheedle his colleagues into an adoption of ! And what is the reason he assigns for this fast-and-loose policy ? On what ground does he pretend to justify the turn- ing and turning policy he thus acknowledges himself guilty of ? Why, forsooth, "he felt it his duty, as a Minister of the Crown, not to embarrass a Government placed in the difficult circumstances which surrounded that of his noble fripnd." This was too much for even the coarse maw of Mr. COBDEN to digest ; and the honourable representative of the Russias broadly charged Lord JOUR with " dissimulation" in so long disguising his sentiments on the subject of the Austrian pro- positions ; and with " weakness" in yielding to his fellow-mi- nisters on a point so important. Mr. ROEBUCK was equally pointed, and still more severe, in his condemnation of the " inconsistency, incompetence, and weakness," displayed by our late negotiator at Vienna. The self-reliant PREMIER ob- viously felt himself much perplexed by the awkwardness of the " situation," and, with his least nonchalant air, declared, in defence of Lord Joust., that " no government could be ren- dered permanent without some sacrifice of opinion among its component members ;" while, to render the farce complete, Sir GEORGE GREY denied the existence of any division in the cabinet, and declared that on the question of the war they were united and determined ! What may be the result of such discrepant views on questions of vital policy, it is no easy matter to determine. The present occupants of office appear to wear a charmed official life, and to cling to place with ex- traordinary pertinacity. The vote of censure on the late and present governments, of which Mr. ROEBUCK has given no- tice, is fixed for discussion on the evening of Tuesday week. It is to be met by " the previous question," which will be moved as an amendment on Mr. ROEBUCK'S motion, by General PEEL, and much anxious speculation as to the result is indulged in by both the friends and foes of ministers. In the mean- time, popular rumour is again busy in asserting that Lord JOUN RUSSELL has been making the most of his Austrian

THE LIVERPOOL BAYKs.—The Union Bank has declared a dividend of 3 per cent. on the capital stock of the company for the last half-year.—The Royal Bank, on preference shares, has declared the payment of interest after the rate of 6 per cent. The Borough Bank has declared a dividend of 7 per cent. on the paid-up capital of the company, for the last half- year. COUNTY VOTERS.—Persons entitled to vote in elections for the county would do well to remember that their claims to be put on the register must be sent to the overseers of the parish in which their property is situate before the 20th instant. Those already on the list, and who may have changed their residence, must also give the overseers notice of their proper place of abode. SERIOUS ASSAULT.—A Greek seaman; named Antonio Fascoritch, was taken into custody on Friday, for assaulting Michael Hanley, a labourer, in the Bramley-Moore Dock. Pascoritch struck Hanley a violent blow on the head with a lump of coal, inflicting a severe wound on the head. The in- jured man was conveyed to the Northern Hospital, where the wound was dressed. AT some vitriol works at Ratcliffe-bridge, Lancashire, on Wednesday night, Robert Chadwick, one of a set of men work- ing during the night onlk, was found lying on the floor in a quantity of vitriol, about two inches deep, which had flowed over from one of the boilers. He had stumbled and fell, and a suffocating gas had generated with such rapidity, that be could not rise again. He was nearly insensible when rescued by his fellow-workmen, and survived a few days only. FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Wednesday, Thomas Eves, aged nine years, son of Peter Eves, was playing with a number of other youths about some timber heaps at the south end of the town, when a large piece of wood fell and crushed him very severely, He was promptly removed to the Southern Hospital, where it was ascertained that the lower part of his body and his thigh had been dreadfully crushed. Nothwithstanding every exertion to safe the life of the young sufferer, he died at an early hour on the following morning. DETERMINED SIIICIDE.—On Tuesday, an inquest was held tnn the body of Robert Bullen, aged 47, late a bailiff in the County Court, who died from the effects of a wound of the throat inflicted by himself, it appeared that in March last the deceased cut one of his fingers, and, inflammation ensuing, was told by a medical man that amputation would be neces- sary. This preyed so ranch upon his mind that he cut his forearm very severely with a razor, with the intentien of bleeding himself to death. This dttempt on his life failing, he inflicted the wounds from the effects of which he died a few days since. Verdict, " Temporary insanity." Hoama's BANw, Ism 'or MAN.—Much dissatisfaction is expressed at the late "break down " of a suit in 'the Manx Chancery-court, in which an action was brought to recover the penalty of £30,000, on a certain bond given by the late• James Holme, for the payment of notes issued by the bank under the license of the Clerk of the Rolls, and the Receiver- General of the Idle of Man. It is supposed that an appeal will ultimately have to be carried to the House of Lords. The money realised from the personal property and assets of the deceased, at present, cannot be much less than £lOO,OOO, and it is suggested that £77,000 should be set aside to meet preferable claims in dispute, and costs. JuvriatE BIIRGLARS.—At the Mice-court, on Friday, two lads, named William Collier and John M`Glone, were sent to-gaol for three months, for the' ollowing impudent bur- glaries. At three o'clock on Friday morning they were ob- served,to go to -the house of a Mrs. Thompson, in Gildart- gardens, to open the shutter, take out a pane of glass, and ,steal a•oap. They then went to Ring's sugar refinery, in Ford-street, where they stole a 'coat and waistcoat belonging 'to -some of the men who work gill night. The latter articles were soon missed, information 'was given to the police, and the 'prisoners were taken into castody with them in their possession. STEAM FROM LIVERPOOL 71..0 HAVANA.—The Havana, a 'magnificent screw-steamer, of 1,500 tons, built by Mr. Laird, is to be despatched on the Iz'7th inst., under the Spanishilag, by Messrs. G. H. Fletcher •and Co., of Covent-garden, in'this 'town, as the pioneer of a line of steam vessels to sail monthly between this port and Havana. The Havana, which is-under the command of Commander Grinda, R.N., has been construct- ed especially for this trade, and is expected to achieve another victory for her eminent builder. The cabins are replete with every possible convenience, and the passengers areTrovided for in the most comfort:l%le manner. THE HAT HARVESTriS now general in this distritt,,and the crop promises to be most abundant, notwithstanding'the late- ness of the spring. Intthe various townships in the vicinity of Liverpool, including West Derby, Knotty Ash, and the Prescot and Knowsley districts ; also Walton and the sur- rounding country, The grass is nearly all cut, and a consi- derable quantity of hay has already been housed, The yield is above an average,'the grass being very thick at she bottom, and moreover better in quality than in former years, the late- ness of the season having contributed to its shoding up ra- pidly under the influence of the genial weather NVhich we have had during the last few weeks, and being cut before it could be parched by drought. The corn crops look remarkably well especially the wheat, which is generally strong, and in full ear' EXTRAORDINKHY CHARGE AGAINST A JEWELLER.—Isaac Cohan, a silversmith, of Park-lane, was brought up at the police-court, on Thursday, charged with buying stolen pro- perty. It appeared that Mr. James Smith, a person connected with the American snail steamers, lost a gold watch value £lB, whilst he was intoxicated in Jamaica-street, on Saturday night. Subsequently a boy, named Sloan, gave the watch to a well- known thief, named Peter Duff, who sold it to Cohan for £l. The police made inquiries from Cohan, who atfirst denied all knowledge of the watch. They got hold of two boys, however, who had seen him purchase it from Duff, and confronting them with him, obliged Cohan to confess that he had pur- chased it. The police then threatened to search the premises, when ,he told them that it was no use, as -he had already melted dow,i Sloan. and Cohan were two.- mitted for trial. ROYAL MERSEY YACHT CLUB.--A saUing,amatch for the grand Challenge Cup, of £lOO value, will take place to-day, on the Mersey. The Cynthia won this prize in 1853, and it was won from her by the Coralie last season. The following is a list of the-yachts at present entered —Coralie, 35 tons, Mr. A. E.

' POSTAGE OF MERCANTILE CIRCULARS.—The following letter, relative -to the postal transmission of'snercantile cir- culars has been -published :—" The Postmaster-General has decided, upon a --reconsideration of the question, to admit mercantile prices current to the privilege of registered newspapers, for transmission abroad ; and . any renewed application which may be made on behalf of prices current, which have been. declined by the Postmaster-General as not entitled to the larivilege, will be at once submitted to Lord Canning. In the meantime, prices current, purport- ing to be periodicals., may be sent to the United States at the ' periodical' rate, one in each cover. They can, of course, be also sent to the other countries ,referred to. It must be understood, however, that the department cannot ensure that these publications shall be regarded as periodi- cals' in the countries to which they may be sent"—(Signed) T. HILL, General Post-office, London, 4th July. THE LATE ROBE] T OF BANK NOTES IN LIVEK?OOL.— In one of the superior courts last week, an action was gained against Brown, Shipley, and Co., (nominally against the Bank of Englasulh by a Frenchman, St. Pahl, who cashed, in Paris, a stolen £5OO note, and claimed to have the note honoured. The evidence was complete, that the Liverpool pollee had served on St. Paul, as a well-known money-changer in Paris,,notice of the robbery, of the,mim- ber of the note, ,&c.:; that the note was cashed after -that notice had been served; and the excuse is, that there are so many of such notices, St. Paul and his clerks could notread all, and had no memory of this particular notice ! Wedo not, says a contemporary, remember so excessively stupid and wrong a verdict ; and we are disposed to attribute the verdict to the manner of -the Chief Justice (Jervis), who ridiculed the witnesses, among others, Keogh, an active officer of the Liverpool police, with whose brogue" his lordship found facetious fault. 'Verdict for the plaintiff, £534. Execution to be stayed, but no peints reserved. SUDDEN Mum OP A PUBLICAN.—John Lynch, publican, 33 years of age, Fontenoy-street, was found dead in bed at about one o'clock on Friday morning. On Monday, some men were drinking in his house, and one of them called for a quart but finding that his customers of ale, which was supplied; would not pay, he took back the liquor, when one of them, Anthony M`Teigh, a private in a militia regiment, took up a tumbler, and threw it at the landlord, striking him in the mouth, breaking two of his teeth, and cutting him severely in the lip. The offender was taken into custody, and was brought up before the magistrates on Tuesday for the assault, when the deceased appeared against him. The result was, that the militiaman was fined 20s. and costs, or-to suffer a month's imprisonment in default of payment. 'Subsequently, the deceased was affected with nervousness, and remained in bed all day on Wednesday ; but as it was supposed that his ill- ness was -the effects of drink, no medical man was sent for. ST. MATTHIAS' SonooLs.—On Tuesday, the children at- tending the schools connected with St. Matthias' Church, Great Howard-street, and a large number of friends and visitors, sat down to tea in the schoolrooms, which were taste- fully decorated for the occasion. The Rev. Vincent Sheldon, the incumbent, presided, and opened the proceedings with an address showing the necessity of education in that neighbour- hood. and detailing the improvements that had been made in One of the schoolrooms. The education given in the schools was passable, but far from sufficient. He found that the low rate of payment now made by the children, threehalfpence and twopence, produced during the last year £76 es. 4d. The total expense of supporting the schools during the year was £lB6 2s. 10d. The excess was partly met by subscriptions and donations, and by an annual grant of £6O from the old churches committee, leaving, however, a balance of £26 against them. The committee had resolved that the rates of payment shall be raised ; that the number of paid teachers should be increased, and that the quality of education should be improved. He concluded with au earnest appeal to the audience to assist in carrying out the object they had in view. The meeting was also addressed by the Rev. R. Watson, vice-president, a Fellow of Queen's College, Cambridge, and several other clergymen. During the evening a number of glees and rounds were sung by the children. PRESCOT FLOWER AND POULTRY SHOW.—On Wednesday the third annual Floral, Horticultural, and Poultry Exhibition took place in a large field at Parkside, Prescot. It was made a holiday in Prescot, all the shops in the town being closed, and the church bells rung merry peals at intervals during the day. A numerous assemblage of ladies and gentlemen gave additional interest to the scene, and two excellent bands of music also imparted much animation and pleasure to the day's proceedings. The company, which was estimated at several thousands, consisted to a great extent of parties from Liverpool and the neighbourhood, who continued to arrive in succession at Huyton, by railway, and who were conveyed thence to Prescot by omnibuses, and other conveyances, which ran during the day. The exhibition of flowers was in every respect equal, if not superior, to that of the two former years, whether as regards the quantity, variety, or quality. There was a choice variety of fruits. In vegetables there were some mon- ster specimens, more especially in rhubarb, lettuce, and cab- bages. There were also some fine potatoes, the Earl of Derby carrying off the prize for the best kidneys. The show _of poultry was superior to any that had preceded it. The exhi- bition included noted breeders from distant parts of the country, as well as the immediate neighbourhood. PARLIAMENTARY INTELLIGENCE. HOUSE OF LORDS. TUESDAY. THE LATE LORD RAGLAN.—After the Clerk had read her Majesty's most gracious message, informing their lordships of her intention to confer a signal mark of her favour on the widow and heir of the late Lord Raglan, Lord PANMIIRE moved an address, in answer to her Majesty's message, and, in doing so, reminded the house of the distinguished services and glorious career of the soldier whose memory they were now called on to honour. In his death it might be truly said that all England had to lament the loss of an intrepid soldier, a great commander, an accomplished gentleman, and a noble and distinguished citizen. The address was, as usual, the echo of the message.—Lord DERBY said he was most anxious to take the earliest opportunity of expressing his concurrence in the graceful tribute which Lord Panmure had paid to the memory of the gallant commander whose career had shed ad- ditional lustre on the annals of the noble house from which he sprang. Of his military qualities it would ill become him (Lord Derby) to speak, but he would assert that few men placed in the position recently filled by Lord Raglan would have so completely overcome the difficulties and embarrass- ments of a divided command, and thus consolidated the feel- ings of mutual confidence and goodwill which happily existed between the allied armies. IrAconchision, he begged most cordially to support the address.—Lord HARDINGE, after an intimacy of fifty-six years, was most anxious to bear testimony to the great merits of Lord Raglan, whose powers and abilities he was convinced were much higher than they were commonly supposed to be.—The Duke of CAMBRIDGE and Lord CAR. DIGAN declared their conviction that Lord Raglan had evinced great tact and capacity in a most difficult position, and were followed by Lord GALLOWAY, the Duke of BEAUFORT, Lord ELLESMERE, Lord GRANVILLE, and Lord BnouGuead, each of whom spoke in the highest terms of Lord Raglan's merits.— Themotip was then agreed to nem. con. The Friendly Societies Bill, and the Woolmer Forest Bill were read a third time and passed. Their lordships adjourned at twenty minutes to seven THURSDAY. On the motion of Lord St. LEONARDS, further returns were ordered of the number of convicts who had received tickets of leave. The Marquis of BREADALBANE reported that their lord- ships' address, in answer to Her Majesty's message respecting provision to be made for the widow and son of the late Lord Raglan, had been most graciously received. RECRUITING FOR THE ARMY.—The Earl cf ELLmino- ROUGH urged many objections to the proposed plan for giving double pay to the soldiers on service in the Crimea. He expressed a preference for the introduction of some relax- ation in the existing restrictions upon enlistment, which he considered uselessly stringent, as well as in the present regu- lations respecting allowances, stoppages, and other arrange- ments whose effects were harassing or injurious to the men.— Lord PINMIRE defended the plan of the Government, but intimated his consent to a modification by which the soldiers would be permitted to receive at once sixpence out of the additional shilling of pay per diem in the character of a field allowance. The School Grants (Security for Application) Bill was read a second time.—The Accidents on Railways Bill was reported with amendments.—The Union Charges Act Continuance Bill was read a third time and passed. NAVAL CADETS.—The Earl of HARDWICKE called atten- tion to the deficient provision now made for the instruction of naval cadets in the Royal Service. He suggested the re- establishment of the Navy. College existing in 1832.—Earl GRANVILLE intimated that some communications had been exchanged with the First Lordcof the Admiralty on the subject, and without making any 'pledge as to the suggested college, stated that the number 'of naval instructors employed in the service would be materially increased.—The subject- 4ropped, and their lordships adjourned at a quarter to 7 o'clock..

The world-wide renown obtained by the above esteemed Condi• ments, having fostered the production of several imitations in which the Jars and Labels are most accurately copied (but not so the contents), M. SOYER deems it his duty to caution the public in every instance to carefully examine the labels before purchasing. The genuine articles are sold wholesale by Messrs. CaossE and BLACKWELL, 21, Sobo-square, and Families may be certain of obtaining them by ordering of their Grocer or Italian Warehouseman. _ SovEu is proud to say the Lancet, in its recent sanitary analysation of articles of food, gave a highly favourable report of his Sauces, which are prepared from thoroughly wholesome in- gredients. The Sauce Succulente is of two kinds, but both alike in character, and of equal excelle4ce. One made expressly for ladies is very mild, and the other fin gentlemen is of a much warmer flavour. Of Sov%R's RELISH the 07::ferver says :—" M. Soyer is a Culi- nary arl,ist as profound at lie is versatile, nothing comes amiss to him.
