CITY, Two o'CLocs. The Foreign and Colonial produce markets during the past few days have not been very ac tive, and for most of the leading articles lower rates have been current. -For tea there has been little enquiry, and since the delivery of the letters by the `Over laud Mail no business of importance has been transacted. Sugar has been flat and prices may be quoted about Gd. per cwt. lower. Coffee remains dull but at steady quotations, and rice and rum have been dealt in to a .very limited extent at about previous values. Saltpette has fully main tained its value, but tallow is dull and at lower quotations. P.Y.O on the spot is quoted 525. Gd., 535. ; Juno delivery, 51s. ; July and August 50.3. ; and about three months, 50s. to 50s. 3d. per cwt. Large quantities of all descriptions of produce are announced for public sale to-day. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed heavily, and compared with Friday, prices were Without alteration. The sales were 5,000 bales, 500 of which were taken on speculation. There was no alteration of importance in the Railway Share Market. Specie is arriving in moderate quantities from Russia, and yesterday a small parcel, viz., 8,0001. was taken into the Bank. Further supplies are expected, which, together with the remittances from Australia and America will no doubt lead to a further large increase of bullion. _ _ There is rather amore active demand for money, owing to the preparations for Friday, the 4th of the montb, when as uivalla large am , unt of com mercial paper will arrive at maturity. The terms of discount in the open market have slightly in creased, but a considerable degree of ease still exists. Several loan and other instalments will soon have to be paid, which are also likely to have some influence upon the market, but no permanent change is anticipated. The market for Public Securities opened flatly, but it has since been rather firmer, a few moderate purchases having been effected. A large proportion of the operations are connected with the settlement of the monthly account. Consols for transfer have been 97a /, but they afterwards improved to 971 and for July to 98 I. The New Three per Cents. are 96i ; the Reduced, 96: A ; the New 21 per Cents., 81 ; Long Annuities, 1a ; Exchequer Bills, 355. prem. ; and ditto Advertised, 13s. prem. Bank Stock is 220 221 ; India ditto, 221 223 ; ditto Bonds, 17s. prem. ; and ditto Loan Debentures, 99k. A fair amount of business has been transacted in the Foreign Stock Market, but prices continue ateady. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 96' ; Ditto 4 per Cents., 104 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 45 ; Rus sian 4i per Cents., 101 k 1021 ; Sardinian 5 per Cents., 89i ex div. ; Brazilian 4i per Cents., 98i I ex. div.; Buenos Ayres Deferred, 181; Mexican 3 per Cents., 20i ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 46i ; Venezuela 44 per Cents., 38,E ; Peruvian Dollar Bonds, 66 ; and Belgian al& per Cents., 971. The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have received advices from Mr. Whitehead, dated Mexico, the 3d ult. Two small amounts have been collected in Colima, making the aggregate balance ill the hands of the Mexican agen's of the bond holders, on the 30th April, 5 5,492 . Se nor Pina y Cuevas had been appointed Minister of Finance, and Mr. Whitehead had expected to be able to advise that Minister's instruction to Col. Facio to divide the money now in the Bank of England by the present packet, but was at the last moment disappointed in th's, not in consequence of any op position to it, but owing to the indisposition of the Minister. The London mail of the Ist April had not reached the capital on the 3d ult. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks : Grenada Deferred Bonds, 51 6 ; Mexi can 3 per Cents., 20i ; P;ruvian 4} per Cents., 86 88 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 60 68 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 45 47 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 111 113 ; ditto 4i per Cents., 101 103 ; Spanish 3 per Conte., 44i ; and ditto Deferred, 27i. There has been very little animation in the Rail way Share Market this morning, prices; however, have improved to a slight extent in most instances. Eastern Counties, Great Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, North Western and South Western im- Proved ssf, and North Eastern Berwick 108. Edinburgh and Glasgow declined about ss. In the other lines dealt in there was little alteration to report. The following lines were dull, and but little business can be reported. In the Colonial luldertakings East Indian have improved to 106 t, Great Western to 18g. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous shares are flat. Oriental Bank have declined 10s. ; Canada Land, 11. ; Peel River and Scottish Australian investments were steady. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'Cl OCK.

Lace fell to the ground and bled profusely, but fortunately a surgeon (Mr. Pop() was passing, and conveyed him at once in a cab to the Southern Hospital, whore he now lies in a somewhat dangerous condition. Lewis was brought before the l ocal magistrates yesterday, but remanded to await the result of Lace's wounds. I ADVERTISEMENT. J— SIGHT AND 'TEARING -- SPECTACLES—.

HOUSE OF LORDS.--(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. Rosabel Whimsical Herm OATHS BILL. On the order of the day being reed for proceeding to consider the Commons' reasons for disagreeing to the amendments made by the Lords to this bill, Lord REDESDALE said he thought it was neces sary, in order to set certain doubts at rest as to whether it would be in order for the nobles earl (Lucan) to move an amendment at this stage of the bill, to carefully look into the precedents, and having done iso be found it was perfectly in order for the noble earl to proceed with his amendment. (Hear, hear.) The Bail of LUCAN then rose to move the fallowing amendment to be embodied in this bill—" Provided also, that whenever any of her Majesty's subjects pro fessing the Jewish religion shall be required to take the oath appointed by this act on any occaeion other than an application to be admitted to sit and vote in either house of Parliament, the words ' 'And I make this declaration upon the true faith of a Christian' shall be omitted ; and that from and after the passing of this act it shall be lawful for the House of Lords and for the House of Commons respectively, by resolution of the house, to determine that the form of the said oath, so far as such oath rests upon or refers to the Christian faith, shall, for the purpose only of such oath being adminis tered to persons professing the Jewish religion, be modi fied, and to make such modification accordingly in such manner as to each such house shall seem best calculated to adapt the fo:ne of the said oath to the honest and conscientious scruples of the said persons professing the Jewish religion." The clause in the bill which his amendment affected was the sth, and he begged to apo • logise for coming forward at this thee to ask their lord ships if not altogether to reverse, at least very much to modify, the result at which they had arrived with respect to this question. ; In the step he wee thus taking he felt it incumbent to say that he acted en tirely on his own respousibi i - y—(hear)--and ho assured their lordships that he had not 'consulted his noble friend (the Earl of Derby), but that he was as much surprised as any of their lordships when he gave notice of his intention to move his amendment. (Hear.) In moving the amendment he was impelled solely by a sense of duty to use his best exertions to set at rest the differences which had so long existed between their lordships and the other house of Parliament. In doing so he felt he was asking their lordships to do a great deal, but he did not think it was too much when it became known that the only object he had in view was to restore harmony between the two branches of the Legislature. (Hear.) Every person must know that the question was one which inuAt be very shortly settled, and ho trusted that the proposition ho was about to submit would be assented to by their lordships, and that the compromise would be accepted by the other house. (Hear.) In the course he proposed to adept he did not think any objection m old be taken, as in his opinion there was nothing objectionable and undig nified in the compromise. The position of their lord ships at the present moment with respect to this ques tion was quite untenable, and even on the ground cf expediency he thought a graceful concession might be made. He would not enter into the great constitutional question of the duties and functions of Parliament — (hear, hear)—for he believed that the House of Lords had an equal right with the Commons to uphold their opinions. He did not recollect ever reading of a member of Parliament being questioned at I the hustings for voting for the admission of the Jews to Parliament, and it was an important fact that the press was nearly unanimous in advocating the repeal of the Jewish disabilities, and he trusted their lordships wculd agree to his amendment, as by this mode a compromise would be effected, and the House of Commons would be left to regulate the mode by which its members should be admitted. He left his amendment in the hands of their lordships, entreating them to give it their dispas sionate consideration before they rejected a proposition which was to effect an object so desirable. Earl STANHOPE said his opinions with regard to this question were no longer what they were two years ago. Public opinion had undergone a change ; and as the proposition of the noble earl appeared to him the best means of settling this question, he called upon their lordships to adopt it. Ile assumed if the Jews were not admitted with the concurrence of their lordships' house, they would be admitted to Parliame nt without it. Lord CLANCARTY would give to the dictum of Nine ran.

John Chapman. The ability of this Review is generally unques tioned, and when it will consent to let theologied, controversial, and similar subjects alone, it affords pleasant reading. The present number is a favour able specimen. With the exception of the opening paper, with the formidable title of " The Religion of Positivism," all the topics are those which interest the general reader, and are suitable for the perusal of those who desire an hour's literary refreshment, instead of an introduction to the hopeless labyrinth of German mysticism and psychology. "The Boa cobel Tracts," "Our Relation to the Princes of India," " Party Government," and "Medical Reform" are among the chief topics, offering at tractions to the hi s t or i an an d the politician, while the literary reader find, in addition to the general survey of contemporary literature, au article on the recent recollections of Shelley and Byron. The Journal of Psychological Medicine and Mental Pathology. No. X. John Churchill. This quarterly, though on a painful subject, be ing chiefly devoted._ to Abe ,consideration of the treatment of insanity, is ono of great practical value and interest to those in any way connected with the management of the insane. The psycho logist, too, who studies to trace the various pecu liarities in the development of the mental powers, how much they are affected by locality, education, individual circumstances, and hereditary qualities, will find many subjects for consideration, and many suggestive facts recorded in its pages. The num ber before us has an extended notice of Mr. Buc kle's valuable work on Civilisation, admiring his research and ability, but censuring his philosophy, as most conscientious and thoughtful readers would do. The legal doctrine of responsibility, in cases of insanity, treats of a very important question. Another paper treats of Insanity and Luna tic Asylums in Norway, and gives an account of the various institutions in that country. It has been said by travellers that the proportion of idiocy in the Norwegian population is large, owing to the extremely isolated existence led by many of the country villagers. "Charlotte Bronte, a psycho logical study," is the title of an essay that will, no doubt, attract many readers. It does not, however, suggest much that Is original, but is little more than a record of her melancholy career. A paper entitled " Puysiologic +1 Psychology," is continued, and a lecture by Robert Jamieson, M.D., on "Mind and Body," is somewhat abstruse in cha racter, but displays considerable powers of reflec tion and analysis. The Law Magazine and Law Review. May, 1858. But!erwol This valuable and important periodical maintains its character, and discusses all subjects connected with the reform and advancement of the law with ability, authority, and experience. A mem3ir of the late Sir William Mauls is given; it takes a review of his eminent career, paying him the tribute of cordial admiration. A paper on the Admiralty Court commends itself to the attention of those in power, suggesting the reforms req u i re d i n th e l as t survivor the Coutt3 of Doctors' Commons. Mr. Macknight's recant life of E I tuund Burke receives a long and favourable notice. One of the most re markable features in the present number is the pub lication of the papers of the Society for promoting the amendment of the law. We are informed that by an arrangement made with that society, all their reports and papers will in future be published solely in this quarterly. The Selection of Adjudged points in the Court of Chancery must be a ve,y useful referee for all concerned in law cases, whether clients or practitioners. There are several other articles of ability, and all legal intelligence of any import ance is given in full.

Had the pulse of the country been felt as to the question of Jewish emancipation I Not by the last election assuredly—that had been a cry of "Palmerston or no Palmerston !" That house was a Christian house, and must be constituted on Christian principles. The Roman Catholics when admitted wete called upon to take an oath not to interfere to the prejudice of the Church ; but it was proposed to admit the Jews without any such precaution. If they admitted Jews, where were they to stop ? Wbat was to prevent a Mahomedan taking his seat The House of Commons would of course take the popular side, but the House of Lords had a higher mission, which he trusted they would fulfil by re jecting the motion of the Earl of Lucan. jonties in ti e House of Commons which bad decided in fvour of the measure; and it was the fear of coming into eolltsi n with these majorities which appears to have icfleenced one of their lordships in advocating a re versal cf their former decision. Well, ho was as sensible as any of their lordships of the ince nvenience, not to say danger, which would result from a long-continued differ ence of opinion between the two houses, and he did net hesitate to say that it would afford him infinite satisfac tion if, on this question, without any sacrifice of princl. pie, there was a possili'ity cf coining to any reasonable compromise with the House cf Commons. " Bat," said the noble I:rd, "if you do not give way in this case, I see another difference looming hi the distance." Now, he must say that was rather a dangerous argument. What did it lead to? Why, to this: let the House of Commons persevere long enough in one branch cf questionuntil would b their l e h o lordships hrri s give sh i way,ps ultimo wouldanel the el . inevit able result yield the while. That was the true force and nueaeing of the argument. At the same time, if this was a mere question of opinion or convenience, he should not hesi tate to say, after the long time it had been in agitatiert, that it was their lordships' duty to give way to the ex pressed wishes of the House of Cemm - n=. Let their lord ships however net forget that these increasing me) -rities of the House of Commons had been attended byno increase of feeling on the oast of the public out of doors. Two general elecCoes had taken pace within a very short period, and at neither had the question of Jewish disabi lities been even mentioned. The fact was that the ques tion had been treated in the House of Commons as one of civil and religious liberty, and the party that voted under that denomination looked upon the question a part of their creed. He wished he could say there was any strong opinion in the country on the subj• et, but on the contrary he believed the country to be quite apathe tic. A small number of the clergy might believe that the admission cif the Jews into Parliament would be the de struction of the country ; and on the other hand, halfa ciozen gentlemen might be anxious for seats in the House eif Commons ; but he believed that on the part of the Jewish body generally there was not the slightest feeling on the subject, it being a remarkable fact that they had presented few or nu petitions to either house. No doubt there were gentlemen of the Jewish persuasion VI ho, apart from their religious opinions, would be an honour to Parliament, and they were naturally anxious to get in ; but with that exception, and the strong reSigi ,us feeling to which he had alluded ou the other side, he be lieved that generally the introduction or non-introduc tion of this measure was a matter cf general indifference. He was ready te- admit the inconvenience arising from the present state of things, and if he could see any mode of release he should be rej.eiced, but under any camp stances he trusted the House of Commons would never be so forgo , fel of what it owed to the coLstitution of the country as to agree to such an unwarrantable proceeding as the atlinis,ion of Jews without the consent of the united Parliament. Such a course would lead to colli sions, not with that house, but to most painful ones with the courts of law, and whatever the result the cense quences must be most pernicious to the country. Tne question then arose of whether there was any solution of the difficulty. His noble and gallant friend bad brought forward aresolution which, although open to grave 01 .j,e tions, was not one which he shou'd advise their lord-hips absolutely to reject, but which still was one ,that required the gravest consideration, and could not be introduced as a mere amendment in a bill. He was not prepared to say that the resolution was unconstitutional, but still, before they adopted it they must carefully consider the precedents. It might be a possible solution of the difficulty. He did not say, rejcet it ; hut the limits within which it could be entertained shoe' i be carefully considered, and however closely csrisidereel; they could not shut their eyes to the danger of the precedent of en abling each house to legislate for itself. (Hear. His noble friend said that, to a great extent, it had been proved that it cues competent for either house to admit persons—he did not see that it should be confined to Jews—on making a declaration. He did not pledge himself to support that opinion, but-still he thought that a great deal might be said in favour of it. (Hear) But his noble friend's amendment went further, and gave permission to alter oaths as might be deemed expedient. He was not prepared to adopt that principle, and there fore should vote against the last part of the ametltrent, while he agreed to the first, and reserving to himself full It-i-eare for considering whether any compromise coull be adopted calculated to remove this lief irtunato cause of difference from between the two houses of parliament. Esrl STANHOPE explained. Earl GREY was surprised that the noble earl had not advised their lordships to adopt the reasonable proposi tion which had been made for settling this painful ques tion. He thought, however, that there was much force in the suggestion that further time should be given Lr consideration, and he would therefore move that the further consideration of the objection of the Hou:e of Commons be deferred for a fortnight, in order that their lordships might see whether the suggestion of the noble earl opposite might not be embodied in a separate bid to be prepared for the purpose. The Eail of DERBY did not think that that course could be adopted in such a way as to meet the ol•j ectioo of the House of Commons. Earl GREY thought his suggestion would be conki dered conciliatory by the House of Commons. The Earl of ELLESMERE was undvrAto3d to sup port this suggestion.

Sailed—Eclipse, Hans, Apollo, and Dependent, out ward bound, it behoved their lordships to rest their oppoeitio on reason and justice. Did their lordships think they were safe in resisting this appeal ? Upon a question of this kind their lordships ought not to rely simply on reason and authority, but should seek the co.cperation of the people. That people were represented by the House of Cimmong. Five successive Parliaments, by increasing majorities, bad reaffirmed The will of the people in this respect. As to compromising their dig. , Lite , in yielding., let it be remembered that the House of Commons could also stand upon that gronnd. Foreign era wondered how three independent hoc les, forming the legislature, could work harmoniously—a very na`ural sentiment ; but the Eoglieh people were trained to con ciliation, and to mutual conceesions, hence the harine nious working of the State machine. (Hear.) SMUG persons were of opinion that "toleration" was all that was requ'red. This was a very narrow view of the :object, and had never been accepted by the friends of civil and religious liberty. It was " persecution" to shut out ellen trete) the opportunities of fair distinction. He had recently read a speech delivered iu the House of Commons 30 years ago, in favour of Jewish emancipa tion, by an orator now a member of their lordships' house (L .rd Macaulay). Would that the powerful anti felicitous advocacy of that noble lord could now be ac. tively enlisted in favour of the emancipation of the Jews. ([leer.) The noble and learned lord moved that their lordships do tot insist upon their amendment in the bill. Lord DE ROS asked when a Jew had ever taken arms in defence of hie cenntry ? E erl GRANVILLE—In defer ceof Lurknow. (Hear.) Lard DE ROS—But why had they not, in past times supported the country in the hour of its pert. (On, and a laugh.) lie confessed that this was the strongest argu ment be cent' adduce against admitting the Jews to Par, itemised - , (Hear, hear, and a laugh.) The LORD CHANCELLOR said that not only legal ability but personal interest had entered into the framing of the Common.' " reasons. If they meant to make an impression on their lordships and produoe an tx . r rordinary effect, their lordships certainly had re ceived them with ne' at pr .voking coolness. The mellow; assigned by the House of Commons began with no rea son, but a fact in reference to the words " on the true faith of a Christian," and which had been conceded over and over again. The words were never intended to apply to Jews, but whilst accepting that concession the House of Commons forget that there was a declaration follow ing the taking of the oath, that all members of Parlia ment should be Christians. The House of Commons said the exclusion of persona from Parliament or office was a violation of the maxim of freedom of fonscience, but he was at a loss to understand what wits meant in this in stance by the maxim of freedom of conscience,, and the ex e reesion in another of the reasons that the Jews should not be deprived of their fair share of legislative power, Persons were entitled in a free country to all civil rights, but not to political rights, unless granted to them by the community, and not as a matter of course. The inflic tion of disabilities on persons on account of their religion was persecution, but in the case of the Jew he was not excluded en the ground of his faith, but from his hosti lity to the principled on which the Government was esta blished. The noble and learned lord, after critically ex amining other portions of the resolution, said if their lordships gave nay in this i ns t ance on the ground that the bill had been repeatedly passed in the House of Com mons by large maj irides, their lordships would have to do tie same in the case of chui oh rates and marriage with a deceased wife's. inter ; whereas, as was well known to their lordships, the large maj irity of the people were against these measures. There had been no decided ex pression of feeling by the majority of the people in favour of the admission of the Jews to Parliament; and were the question to be put to them, he thought that the apathy of the people would change to hostility, and the majority of the people would be found to be against the measure. He felt rather relieved when he found such a result of the united wisdom of the House of Commons, as these reasons, which, in reality, furnished none for their lordships departing from the resolution of a pre vious night. Earl GRANVILLE asked the noble lord if he in tended to divide on the question again that night, because he (Lord Granville) thought the division that bad already been taken that night had virtually decided the que tion, and he congratulated their lordships on the ad vance the question had that night made in their lord ships' house. After what had transpired, he suggested the noble lord (Lord Lyndhurst) should turn his rotten . ti in with the Government to the qu etion, and produce a measure that would set this question at rest for ever. If net, he (Earl Granville) should vote for the resolution. Lord BROUGHA.NI jeined his noble friend in urging the suggestion on the noble lord. LorYLYNDIIURSr —I accept it with the hope of Fuopgrt from her Majesty's Government. Their lordship,' amendments were then agreed to without a division. THE CHELSEA HOSPITAL (PURCHASE OF LANDS) BILL.

Lord CLARENDON gave notice of his intention to call the attention of their lordships to-morrow to a speech recently delivered by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to his constituents at Slough. Ile intended to have called attention to it that night, but in consequence of the late ness of the hour he postponed it till tomorrow. His reason for calling atten•ion to that speech wai, that the right hon, gentleman had made some remarks, especial'' , affecting the department over which he (Lord Claret,- dot) lately had the honour to preside, and which be con• sideted impugned a statement of his, as quoted by the noble lord the member for Tiverton. (Hear, hear.) Lord DERBY WA3 glsd the nolla earl bad given notice cf his intention, because he would take the oppor tunity of reading the speech re.ferred to. (Laughter.) Their• lordships ithen adjourned at a quarter to ten o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.--(YESTERDAY.) Thu SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. NEW MEMBER.

On the order for the further consideration of Man cheater, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, and Great Northam Rail way Companies Bill, Mr. HENLEY said the metriure was one of great im- J poitance, and he moved that that stage should be post poned fur ten days, in order that evidence on the sub ject might be place d in the hands of hon. members. Mr. ROEBUCK asked whether the right hon. gen tleman spoke on behalf of the promoters. Mr. HENLEY said his attention bad been called to the bill in the ordinary curse of business. He had stated his ot.jection to the period of the agreement to the promoters' solicitors, whe had agreed to alterations which had met with the approbation of the Board of Trade. Sir J. LTANMER was of opinion the duration of the agreement should be more than 10 year'. Mr. CARDWELL concurred with the right hon. gentleman the President of the Boaz(' of Control. After some remarks from Col. FRENCH and Mr. SPOONER, _ _ _ Mr. ROEBUCK condemned a delay of ten days, and moved an amendment that the delay shouldb for three three days. Aker some remarks from Mr. Fitzroy, Mr. Cheetbant, Mr. Mansell, and Sir J. Trolloue, Colonel FRENCH condemned a different course being pursued in this case, because the Great Northwro way was connected with the bill, to that pursued in all other caes. The motion and amendment were ultimately with drawn, and the further consideration of the bill was postponed till Monday. THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF CON- T ito L. —NE W WRITS.

Mr. ROEBUCK gave notice that to-morrow be should tiring the Subject of the Suez Canal before the house, and move that in the opinion of .this house the power and influence of England ought not to be em ployed to induce the Sultan to withhold his assent to the formation of a canal across the isthmus of Suez. THE CAGLIA.RI. Mr. READLAM. asked the Chancellor of the Exche quer if the demand for compensation made on behalf of the British engineers Palk and Watt Lad been conceded by the Neapolitan Government, and whether they bad been released unconditionally : also, whether the Sardi nian subjects who constituted part of the crew of the Cagliari were still detained by the Neapolitan Govern ment) The CHANCELLOR, of the EXCHEQUER said the British Engineers Park and Watt were released unoon ditionally—(hear)—but compensation bad istrk,l yet been made on their behalf. With regard to the second part of the question, he had to inform the house the Sardi nian subjects who formed part of the crew of the Cag liari were still detained by the Neapolitan Government. Mr. ROEBUCK asked if compensation had been re fused by the Neapolitan Government 1 (Cheers.)
