The business in shires to-day is restricted, specu lation being at present mostly in abeyance, and the attendance in the house rather thin. Prices opened flatly, and in most instances business was transacted at a lower figure, but more firmness has since shown itself, and a slight rally has in several cases occurred.

This new means of communication will doubt less give an additional impetus t 3 the trade of Bristol. The Irish Peat Company having obtained their , charter limiting the individual responsibility of the shareholders, are proceeding with their operations in , earnest. They have taken a piece of bug land near Athy, and have for some weeks put employed from, 400 to 500 persons in getting up turf while this machinery is in progress of construction. As carriage . is an important item in the prime cost, and it is con-. sidered most desirable to effect every economy, the station has been so chosen as to have good railway ; and river transit, an arrangement which is judicious; and promises to be successful. We of Edward Baum. By his Bow. Longman. 1851. 'lbis is a work that will be largely and carefully consulted by the future historians of England in the nineteenth century. it is by no means brilliant, nor does it convey much novelty of information to contemporaries. but it is a valuable record of middle clans sentiment, of the awakening of that class to political conviction, and to its exercising im portant influence by reason of that conviction. we never should have had but for the ethTieg, the strength, and the unanimity of the opinions entertained and manifested by the population of the great manufacturing districts. That one of that population and class, a men miming in prosperity and talent, should have taken the pen to record the history of that political and social movement during those years, cannot but be a sub ject of great congratulation. The two Baines, father and son, have well fulfilled this national task, the first by the ample notes, diaries, and correspon dence which he lett behind him, descriptive of the epoch ; the second by the diligence and lucidity with which he has composed the narrative and filled up The committee, after deliberating on the applica tion of counsel for the corporation, decided on not admitting evidence as to the improved plan of the City authorities in connexion with the continuance of Smith field, whereupon Mr. TALBOT, Q.C., counsel for the corporation, intimated to the committee that they would retire from further contest, and submit the measure to the legislation that ruled before a higher tribunal. The room was then cleared, and after the lapse of about half an hour the committee decided that the preamble of the government bill for establishing a commodious mar- T o ket in the suburbs, in lieu of the existing Smithfield mar- se kat, was declared proved. Isj The decision, which will have the effect of totally abolish ing Smithfield, excited considerable sensation. M ILastwan. N . i Dram& alas sad Mr ItillireaWer.dall J at umada riam Ms rear alias ...

THIS DAY. q iii, The an xiousltexpected annutdmecting commenced this day at one o clock, at the society's school-room, Broad sanctury, Westminster. For a considerable period before el l the hour appointed for opening the doors the street was a t . blockaded by a crowd of members, anwanget whom the de- ar e rival element largely predominated; end when admismion to was at last afforded an almost indescribable rush brasitplate. The spacious hall was speedily crowded. At 1 reeinskthe shale was taken by the Archbishop of Canterbury. On the meet rev. prelate's right were the Bishops of Winchester, Salisbury, and Chichester, and Mr. Hope and the Rev. 0. A. Denison; 17 on his lett were the Archbishop of York, the Earl of Her- s 0 , rowby, the Bishops of London, Bangor, Oxford, and Senior NI and Mann, and Sir John Pakington. On a bench imine- I diately below the platform sat the Bishop of St. Asaph. ; The Chairman, in opening the prceedings, expressed his ae regret that notice had been given of an intention to move so ; restrictions on a subject on which considerable excitement 11l existed, and the discussion of which, experience showed, L'a elicited feelings which were inconsistent with the society's : t.

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK the official report mays, the mortality of London has been greater than usual during the four weeks of May. Is the first three returns of the month the deaths numbered respectively 1,011, 1,002, 1,000 ; in the week coiling last Saturday a decrease occurred, but not of considerable amount, the number hav ing fallen to 990. Taking the weeks corresponding to last week of the ten years 1811-50, it will be seen that the mortality, which in one instance fell so low as 738 (namely, in the fourth week of May lan year), did not in any case eaceed 980, and that the average was M. If this average be raised in propo tion to the supposed rate of in crease in the population. it will amount to 933 ; ocitapared with which the 99J deaths of last week exhibit an increase of -57. The relative force with which the present mortality, so far as it differs (ruin the average amount, falls on the young, the middle.aged, and the old, is shown by the following statement: A=ol tan sorra weeks. 1114 - Per- Wr'inirrectial for la te the wash ending Inc Saturday. sots, imam of population). From birth to 13 years there died 473 418 From 15 to 60 At 60 years upwards From the above it appears that last week was not more fatal thou usual to persons of advanced age, while rather lest than the usual number died in the middle stage of life, and that the augmented rate of mortality was entirely con fined to the youthful part of the population. The rymotoc or epidemic clam of diseases produced last week '220 fatal cases, and of these 169 occurred amongst children under 15 years. Small-pox had fatal termination to 23 persons, sic of whom were twenty years of age and upwards; measles carried off 39 children; scarlatina 10; Moping-cough 64; and croup 5. Of these complaint., almost exclusively confined to young persons, hopping- Gough much exceeds the usual contingent, and scarlatina falls still more belov it. To diarrhica 16 deaths are ascribed to dysentery 6; to crysip.las 11; and under typhus, which shows about the usual amount of fatality for the present time, 32 am enumerated. The above class of disemes exhibits an increase on the preceding week ; but those which affect the organs of respi ration show a diminution. Laryngitis numbers 5 eases, bronchitis 51, pleurisy 6, pneumonia 64, and asthma 7 ; three, with other undefined disease of the lungs, numbering in the aggregate 136 deaths, which is rather more than the corrected average of correponding weeks. Four diseases arc comprised iu the tubercular class : scrofula from which 5 di Alm are enumerated last week, tithes tnesenterita which counts 10, hydrocephalus 31, and phthisis, or couvumption, 150. In the ten corresponding weeks of 1841-50, the lowest number ascribed to consump tion is 103, and t h e highest 166. The birth, of 761 boy., and 769 girls, in all 1,533 chil dren, were registered week. The average number of six corresponding weeks in 181.1-50 was 1336. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean daily reading of the barometer was 30114 in.; on Wednesday, and on the following days it rose continuously, and was 30.351 in. on Saturday. The mean of the week was 30.097 in. The mean daily reading of the thermometer was on Sunday 2 6 deg. above the average of the same day in 10 years, but on all the following days, except Friday, was below it. The mean temperature of the week was 55 . 6 deg. which is about 2 de; ;. below the average. The wind generally blew from the north in the beginning of the week, and towards the end WAS in the south-east and north-east. F.VrAI. RIVER ACClDt.NTB.—Yesterday Capt.

But success had made them in solent and left them dull; and their aim seemed to have been to disgust every party iu the state. Their enduring contempt of the commercial classes, their denial of the franchise, even to Leeds; their mode of regreseing popular Wing and agitation, borrowed from the worst times of past centuries, soon filled the measure of disgust. Nothing so depopularised them as the spy system, and the gutting up of con spiracies by the activity of government agents and informers. The great claim that Mr. Baines had to the grati tude of his countrymen was the courage and acute ness with which he undertook and carried through the complete exposure of this system. In his double character of commercial citizen and provincial editor, the truest information was obtained by hint, and ho had the means of disseminating it in a journal, the long-established character of which for truth logic, and an absence of exaggeration, gave the ut most publicity and weight to all it uttered. Whilst the Ldinburyh Review was sapping the foundations of the bulwarks of toryiam amongst the upper and highly-educated classes, journals such as the Leeds Mercury, by a quicker medics wratwii, were exciting the same feelings in the middle class ; Henry Hunt and compeers being no leas busy and successful in a lower grade of so ciety. And as if no class could be unstirred by dis content. there appeared a writer of a peculiar turn, with the habits, language, and ideas that enabled hint to address and command the working agricultu rist and the lower shopkeeper. The power of Cobbett was immense, and had it been wisely, rationally, or consistently directed, it might have told greutly for the chugs to which it was addressed. But Cubbetes blindness was equal to his rigour, and the blow of his flail fell almost impartially upon the foes and friends of the popular cause. Neverthe less, he increased the mass of popular discontent, and flung his share into that cauldron which nearly boiled over in 1832, and would have done so, had not the landowners submitted to the sacrifice of some portion of their indefensible privileges and unwisely used power. Mr. Baines gives the history of this movement, chronicles the different steps of its progress, and the first result of its success was the election for Yorkshire and for Leeds. We cannot well under stand the anger, directed against Mr. Macaulay, for haring first accepted the representation of Leeds, and for then having quitted it for useful and active office beyond sea. Surely what a liberal town should most rejoice and delight in, would be to rear and display a series of politicians all acquisitions to the experience and business talent of the nation. On Mr. Macaulay's vacation of his seat Mr. Baines was elected member for his native town, his letters and records being henceforth re plete with that parliamentary and political informa tion which is gathered at the centre of affairs, not at the extremities. Mr. Baines remained in parliament till the whigs were ousted in 1541, when, to all appearances. a tory reaction had set in, which he felt that it required youth to combat and to face. Political reactions, however, which used to run in the same cur rent for seven, eight, or ten years, are now of much shorter duration. And it is evident, that when tones do grasp . office, it must be either to lose sight of their principles, or to abandon power within a very brief period. The latter portion of the volume is devoted to the resistance offered by the elder and younger Baines to the several schemes of government educa tion. In this we by no means agree with the veteran liberal of Leeds, or with his son. The peculiarity of the Baines, indeed, was that, of all questions, they took an exclusively middle class view; and, in most cases, it was the nght one. In questions, however, which affect religion and edu cation, it is necessary to think of all classes, and how best they arc to be provided for. Voluntaryism in both does admirably for the middle clas-es, or for countries like America, where there is none other but a midale class. But, to give up the poor, to leave the agricultural and peasant population, for example, to voluntaryism, either in religion or in education, is to abandon them either to the dictation of their lar.dlords or to their own ignorance and supineness. The state alone is tneir natural protector, or the state locally repre sented by local bodies. This, however, would lead us into a profound, and, for the present, a needless disquisition. Suffice it to put in the protest, that whilst giving the full tribute of respect and admi ration to Mr. Baines as a politician, we differ from his views on these last points. To us, however, Mr. Baines appears more eminent and valuable as the journalist than as the acting po litician. It is impossible to estimate too highly the influence and importance of the provincial press. The provincial press is much more closely in contact than the metrwolitan with the classes it represents. Provincial newspapers are in general middle-class organs, which metropolitan organs are not exclusively. A gentleman, therefore, who lives half a century amongst his fellow townsmen, invests his capital in a newspaper, and acts as the political echo, as well as guide of opinion—such men, and they are to be found in most of our provincial towns—are amongst the most important personages in the country, and, we need not add, amongst the most respected. AYLESBURY ELECTION PETITIONS. — Yesterday the so Si. Duke of Buckingham woe examined before the committee st. relative to the petition ted a short time since to the 10 House of Commons referred for inquiry to this coin- 13 mittee, by one Thomas Bradford, of Aylesbury, saddler, praying that an inquiry might be instituted , on the ground et. I of alleged bribery, intimidation, and corruption, into the elec. It tion of Mr. Bethel' to serve for the borough, and calling on to the house to return Mr. Fermod, the unsuccessful candidate. SO The petition also alleged that Mr. Calvert, who had been t; unseated by a select committee on the ground of treating, became an agent and partisan of Mr. Bethel), together with 10 Acton Tindal, A. Benson, G. Defraine, and others, with so the individual known as the Man in the Moon &Ms Crouch, Si.l and that the agency of these parties was employed in oh tainiug Mr. Bcthell's return. These persons have n i been examined at the various sittings of the com mittee, which have been conducted with closed doors. The petition praying for an inquiry was subsequently withdrawn by Mr. J. Strutt, solicitor, of Buckingham-street, Strand, who states he received instructions to prepare and L. 351 present it from one Thomas Hughes Bradford, but that the ; said Thomas Hughes Bradford did not attend to sign the se petition on the last day allowed fur its presentation, and se that Mr. Cunningham, Mr. Strutt's partner, signed it in the at. name of Thomas Hughes Bradford, and then presented it to SO the house. After the petition had been presented, Mr. Strutt received a message from the Duke of Buckingham, 5 requesting to see him immediately, when the duke in formed him that the said Bradford had been to him at the Ia Carlton Club in a state of drink, and wished to know if he 10 had been sent by Strutt, who answered in the negative, /0 and denied that he ever offered Bradford any reward to 1 2 . 1 sign the petition in question, and it is this that forms the r s subject of the committee's inquiry. 25 SMITHFIELD MARKET REMOVAL COMMITTEE. —The at. committee met again yesterday, and proceeded to take fur ther evidence from the butcher interest in favour of the continuance of Smithfield ;at the conclusion of which Mr. 16 Scijeant Wrangliani and Mr. James, Q.C., who was yes- Eel terday retained in support of the government bill, objected ' 1 to counsel for the other side going into evidence in favour I of the improved plan proposed by the corporation of the Sol! City of London, on the ground that the bill for that per I pose, and of wh ich the plan in question formed the chief "'• part, had been thrown out in the house, and was not before the committee. The room was cleared for deliberation, and le the hon. Chairman having gone to ask leave, it being 4 o'clock, to sit during the sitting of the house, returned I Ili with an intimation that as there was "no house," they so must adopt the alternative of adjourning to 12 o'clock day. is to- Iat:NPOWDIR STORSS. LIVERPOOL. —Yesterday the com mittee on this bill, for repealing so much of 12 Geo. 111. 13 relating to the making. keeping, and carriage of gunpowder as exempts therefrom the gunpowder stores and magazines s : at Liseard, in the parish of Wallasey, on the side of the i n Mersey opposite Liverpool, mot for the first time. The bill wets forth that the said magazines and storehouses are ex- Ili tremely dangerous to the inhabitants, to the town and docks of Liverpool, and the shipping. It is proposed that !, the magazines shall be discontinued after one year , and •"' prior to the expiration of that period not more than s o 400,000115. of gunpowder shall be stored therein, under a penalty of 7001., and subject to the regulations prescribed by to the Ordnance. _—..ernlZAD DOCKS.—We understand that ar- " ranpments have been entered into by the trustees of the al Ducks of Birkenhead and the Dock Warehouse Company to co-operate for carrying on the outer works of the docks el on the plans of Mr. Abernethy, C.E., and that a bill for ID the purpose is now before parliament. We congratulate :5 the promoters of Birkenhead on the important prospect these arrangements foreshadow that a deep-water entrance SO suited to the exigencies of the times will be obtained speedily.—Liverpool Albion. ROCIIF.STER CATREDRAL.—The Maidstone journal si i of the 20th ult., reproduced an old decimation of the Dean It.' and Chater of Rochester, to the effect the . they removed 1,1.1 Mr. Wh i ston "not merely on account of his having made 't charges against them, which need nut have been an offence, e l and might even have been a duty, but for holding up to el public scorn and contempt their ministrations in the cathe dral." Now we are not likely to be suspected of any par- 6 1 1 tiality fur, nor of any close and occult communication with .„ 1 ° the cathedral precinct, and therefore we shall not be " 6 deterred by any fear of the imputation of flattery from expressing the opinion that this declaration begins 12 to assume an appearance, more truthlul and life-like el than some other reptescntations of the chapter. For to if one may judge by the remarkable indisposition which ~,8 1* the dean and canons have lately shown for cathedral '''' duties, it really would seem as if they were conscious that somehow or other, their ministrations were re- le garded with little respect, and that in tact they were them- I U. selves exemplifying a saying of one of t heir own bod y , that, il. "by not acting up to the spirit of the doctrines we profess, : we make others distrust our belief in them." Be this as it g may, their " hopes of their owe usefulne , s " must, if not et. "destroyed," be at any rate much impaired, fur it is a fact , II that one of the canons has not been i n Rochester for three I years, while the recent ministrations of the dean and other sa canons may be summed up as follows , .—l. The dean preached in December live times, in January twice, in Fe- g bruary three times, in March twice, or twelve times alto gether, besides which he attended cathedral service four IS times from December 1 to April 1. 2. Dr. Griffith preached , ~ in November four times, in December three times, in : ; January twice, in February three tinier, and in , March twice, or twelve times altogeher. 3. Dr. Irving i 17 preached twice in December, and nut since. 4. The , U archdeacon preached three times in April, and twice in May, five times altogether. Surely then there is good , reason for thinking that the dean and canons must be con-' ' scions that their ministrations are neither so useful nor so' respected, as they might be, especially when we reflect that judging by past years, the amount divided amongst them for the labours aforesaid must have been abaut 5,000/. ; and this suspicion is strikingly corroborated by what took place in the cathedral on Sunday week. There was a canon there, who in the morning read a portion of the commu nion service, in a very audible and clear voice, as if he , would show how well he might have preached, an t then returned to his stall, somewhat fatigued perhaps by the walk. There was also a ini .or canon there, a much older man than the prebendary, and with a voice so feeble that he could hardly articulate some of his words. Moreover, be Is a vicar of a parish 016,000 inlienitants, and it WAS sacrament Sunday ot his ownchurch. Notwithstanding he was called upon to preach the Cathedral sermon, elide the canon, with CAO/. a year, sat at his else in his stall. But this is not all. There was service at the Cathedral in the afternoon, and a sernrin to be preached, and though the prcb,:ndary mud have seen the labour, and might have felt for the pun and, difficulty under which the minor c loon evidently had suf. fered in the morning, still 11;2111 did he sit in his stall while I the minor canon, at 301. a peer, again preached a sermon, as good in matter as it was painful in delivery. With such facts as these, there really seems good reason for thinking that the Chapter have hit upon a most happy device for counteracting the public scorn and contempt, to which they I say Mr. Whist a has held up their ministrationa, by adopt- Vll3Olll, JOSE 2.—Five per Cent.

The return of the Brighton traffic during the week ending the 31st ult., just published, affords no com parison with the corresponding period of last year, which embraced the Epsom race traffic. The receipts are 10,0081. against 13,1011. lust year. The average return per mile is 57.76/. against 8818/. in 1850. The aggregate receipts of the half year to this date are 196,0111. against 180,3121. in the same period last year. The South Eastern return shows an increase of 2,0451. over last year, the amount being 13,780'., against 1 1,735/. The average return per mile this week is 52.791., against 50141. in 1850. The Midland return is understood to show almost the identical sum as last year , a circumstance which has caused some disappointment. The ensuing weeks bring on the dividend days of several foreign stocks, winch are largely held in this country.

The following communication has been handed to us by the committee of Mexican bondholders: The committee of Mexican bondholders understand that their communication to the Secretary of State in Washing ton of the 25th April, through the United States embassy in London, did not leave 611 the 3rd of Mayby the Cambria, which arrived in Boston on the 13th, so that it could not reach Washington till the 13th May, when the President and the greater part of his cabinet were absent attending the opening of the Eric Railroad, which will fully account for no answer having been received by the last American packet. I The condition of the Spanish negotiations still ex cites the must lively interest, and the bondholders feel very strongly the necessity for some active step being taken to defend their rights. It is one great difficulty connected with a body of this kind, that there are conflicting interests, and it particularly behoves those representing the bondholders at large to see that no individual section suffers. As matters stand, however, gross inequality prevails, and unless some strenuous effort be made, many persons will be mulcted of their property. The following statement from an influential bondholder shows the unfair operation of Bravo Murillo's law on coupons of interest :- Suppose a bondholder had 100,000/. Five per Cent. Car tes Bonds, he has of course above 50,0004. coupons: he may have kept them ; if so, he is called upon to give up 26,0001., or 50 per cent. But let us suppose another bond holder has sold his 60,0001. coupons at 20 per cent. he has put into his pocket 10,0001. sterling of the unf ortunate coupon buyer," whose property is now reduced to 4,0001. by this confiscatory process. Councils are now only 8 per cent. The holders of the so-called Active Debt may be divided into three classes :-Class 1. Holders of bonds and all coupons attached, say " full complement men " : his loss is, on 1001. five per cent. bonds, 50 - . coupons=l.so/., Mt., or 50 per cent. of his coupons, leaving him 1254. New Active one per cent. stock. Class 2. Coupon holder, say on 1501. : his loss is 60 per cent., or 76/., leaving him 75/. New Active one per cent. stock. Class 3. Bonds, ex coupons: on 1501. stock, or bonds, his loss is not one farthing. Now the latter, or No. 3, was either an original bondholder, and sold off his coupons to Class 2, or he bought up bonds, ex cou pons, at low prices. Do either of these considerations seem to entitle Class No. 3 to exemption (ruin a fair proportion of sacrifice. If bonds and coupons each gave up 16 per cent. the ease would assume a different complexion to coupons being taxed 60 per cent. There is no change in the bullion market ; prices arc firm, with buyers coming forward. In the foreign exchange market a rise was ex pectedyesterday, in consequence of the continued fall in the price of silver; however, as frequently is the case, the contrary took place. In this market, more than in any other, supply and demand regulate the quotations of the day, and sometimes irre spective of other causes that tend to an opposite result. The demand for bills on Hamburg and Amstcidam exceeding the supply, the rate of exchange declined.
