During the past few days the transactions in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets have been of a very limited character. For the finer qualities of sugar, suitable for home use, 'here his been a fair inquiry, at about late rates, but other descrip tions have been neglected. Tea has been at steady rates, and prices seem likely to be well maintained. Good qualities of Plantation Ceylon coffee con tinues in request at fully former values, and a few sales have been effeAed in Native Ceylon at fair values for exportation. Rice has exhibited a slight improvement, and the finer qua lities may bo quoted at an advance of about 63. to sd. per cwt. compared with last Fiiday's rates. In rum a moderate business his been done at former Ya7ues, and saltpetre his been firm. Tallow has , aye 7:- tendency. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 52.5. 3d. ; July to Sept., 50s. 9d. to 50s. fid. ; and last three months, 50s. 3d. to 50s. 6d. per cwt. The continued depreciation of all descriptions of foreign and colonial produce will, it is thought, occasion further suspensions among weak holders. In many cases, if firms were compelled to force sales, they would be attended by irretriev able loss ; and the eacrifices already made must have injured the position of several dealers who bought on speculation, when prices were at their highest. Two or three failures have occurred during the last fortnight, which have naturally given rise to much converv.tion, and fears are ex pressed lest they should be succeeded by others of greater importance. Surprise has been expressed that this branch of business, which has been more prostrated than many others, should have been subjected to so few disasters since the crisis, but there can be no doubt that during the remainder of the year further embarrassments will take place, although there is no cause for apprehending the slightest difficulty among the loading houses whose wealth is known to be considerable. The demand for discount in Lombard-street is fully maintained, and the terms still range at 3 per cent., and in many in wan cos aftaciionmore is paid for the negotiation of good bills. In the silver market the tran , actions are lim;ted, and it is not expected that the steamer to theEtrit on the 4th proximo, will take out a large amount. A dividend, being the first, of 3s. in the pound, has been announced by Mr. C. A. Jonas and C?., who failed last year. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed firmly, and prices of Americans advanced id. per lb. compared with Friday's rati's. The sales were eatimatcd at 12,000 bales, 2,000 of which were taken for export, and 2,000 on speculation. Busi ness in the Railway Share Market was quiet, and prices were rather lower. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 5 6 ; Mexi gm, 19i 20i ; Peruvian, 86i 71 ; Ditto 3 I,er Celits., 66 67 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 46k 47k ; Ituwaian 5 per Cents., 111 1.13; Ditto V I per Ceuta., 101. 103 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 441 451; and Ditto De (erred, 27i 'she half-yearly .meeting of the African Steam Company was held this day. The report was, on the whole, favourable, and stated that the gross receipts for the half-year were £45,288 9 2 and the expenses £7,253 12 10 Deduct dividend, at the rate of 53 per share in December last 3,440 0 0 Leaving a balance of .... £3,813 12 10 As this balance was small, it was recommended that; it be not divided at the rate of ss. per share, but carried forward to the next account, which Was unanimously 'agreed to. There was a meeting of the South Australian Banking Company to-day—Mr. Divett, M.P., in the chair. The colonial profits which ought to have attended the year's operations not hav ng ar rived, the surplus of the London profits was only dividttd, giving a dividend at the rate of 6 per oent per annum. The balance on the 31st May Was 23,5711. 173, ld. Some favoutele discus sion took place, when the report was adopted. The Funds are very depressed, and a further fall of 1 per cent. has - taken place. There is a very limited business, but a few transactions connected With the approaching liquidation are recorded. Consols have been 95g- 1, and they are now feeble at those quotations. The New Three per Cents. are 95k- ; the Reduced, 951 I; Exchequer Bills March)t 375. pm. ; ditto June, 203. to 225. pm. ; ndia Bonds (under 1,0001.) 164. pm. ; ditto Loan Bonds, ';►9l ; ditto Scrip, 99; ; BAnk Stock, 2211. Business in the Foreign Stock Market is quiet, but pric es remain unaltered.

Brazilian 6 Scrip is 2 to 1 discount. Businim in the Railway Share Market this morn ing bas been inactive, and the few bargains re ported h ave been chiefly connected with the settle- Mont of the half monthly accounts now in liquida tion. Prices, in most instances, have exhibited a further downward tendency, more particularly in South Easterns, which have declined abJut 2/.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat o❑ the wool sack at five o'clock. The SPEAKER, took the chair a' 12 o'clock. The Lords' amendment to the following bi!l3 were eonadered and greed to :—Andover Canal Railway, D. al Foreat Turnpike Trust, Cade Railway. The f Mowing hills were considered and ordered for third reading :—Great Southern of India Railwpy. Com pany, Toes Conservancy, Warrington and Stookrrt Railway (Capital).

Lord RAVENSWORTH brought up the report of a cfrtain railway bill on wlOch he bad been aitti. g in one of the committee room of the house, and complained f the iucmavenience occasioned by the noxious vapours arising from the rivf , r Thames. Thu Earl of MALMESBURY said notice of a ques tion on the subject of the present state of the Thames having been given, be was now in a pos:tion to state the Government ha.i taken immediate measures for tem porarily alleviating the evils arising from the prspent state of the river Thames by during the hot r, on the plan adopted with _refit ell=ellB at Leicester. The Government were ready to pass an act of necessity to guarantee the payment by rates on any capense ircurred in the process, but it had been thought most sdvisAble to defer permanently deal ing ‘-vtlt the state of tilt: T 1 anic u►+ it aot , noo ' PC ,auitary ri(,t be ailopted with,ut iri .u,dy e- the 1 ve, ibuee nga the process. Lie also thou-At is would be mo=t unwise to take any hasty steps, l.ut be could assure the house that t!,e Government would ese their utmost endeavour to abate the evil in the meantime. Lord BROUGHAM urged upon the G,vernment the great itnpor anei of takinv. the ino-t efftetive meaqures to improve the present toe ii state of the river. In reply to a ques.ion from the Duke cf NEWCASTLE, Teo Earl of MALMESBURY said the Grovernment only intended to proceed with temporary measures for the preselit.. factory manner by reading services which spok. of "the malice and bloodthirsty" designs of their fellow subjects. (Rear, hear.) Such services might stir up ran cour end bitterness, bit, they could never afferel < ny as eistaiice to sober controversy. nee who was ohce a mem ber of their lordships' heuse was once asked to expre-s in a few words the main advantage which was d• rived from the connection of the Church and State. "The ob ject of the connection," he said, "was not to make the Church political, but to make the State religious. (Cheers.) That was a wise and a noble saying, and one that deserved to sink deep int ) their lordships' minds. It way, moreover, a true saying, so far as the services cf the Church generally were concerned. But be would ask their lordship' whether the answer as rine:de:l their special services would not have had to be exactly the re verse ? Could they doubt that their of ject was to make the Church political? (near.) In fact, it was mil e feee e te they were seldom used that tie- t ' e• b it ereieetteet. Whatever it i t le I e she cs ue of the motion with which 1., (tee ,ogle ear') was about to conclude, he should never regret that he bad made it ; for he could never regret thefeelings cfrespectand attacbmentto the Church from which he could assure their lordships it, had sprung The noble earl concluded by 'poring the following rear lotion : That an humble address be presented to her M jetty, praying that her Mtj sty will he graciously !• 1 -•?'"(: ; to•tett- ii.te her royal consideration tbe nrocle- Lei ion cf the first year. ef her Msj-sty's reign, c toward ing the n - e of the forms • f leaver and service made for Nov 5. Jan. 30, May 29, and June 20 ; and should her Mtj sty see fit, to order the substitution for the said pro namation ef one e'eclaricg it her Mejesty's pleature that only the service appointed for June 20, being the anni versary ef her Majesty's liCefl3; , a, atilt henceforr h tie printed ar d publiehed and annexed to the B tok of Com mon Prayer and Liturgy of the United Church cf Eng land and Ireland, to be used yearly nn the raid day." The Archbishop of CANTERBURY was understood to say that he had felt it his duty to resist the motion of Lord Ehury for the revision of the Literary, because the prevailing differences were so great that such a rretien ete.:Cd not conduce to- the it. elfare of the Church. To it.e prtsett motion, howev, r, he cenht see no such ob jection. (Herr.) On the contrary, the general opinion was in favour of remitting these set vices frana the Prayer Book, more especially as they did not firm any part of the Liturgy, to which the clergy bad given their assent, and to which they were bound toe inferai. (Hear.) Un der these circom-tances it would be far better that +hey should be regularly remote), than that they should be irreeular'y die - egarded. (Hear, hear.) Lord EBURY eupp , rted the motion, which, in point of fact, o• ly formed a portlot of the larger question, which be hail irereduced to the notice of their lordships a short time b fern. Re hoped, however, that the Go vernment would think it necessary to propose the repeal of the sta . uteo, because it was laid down in Renee t• Ecelesitstical Law" that these services might be en forced on grounds quite independent of the royal precle mati re, e bite_ in reali y was not issued till the reign of George L He had ojected to repetitions in !twit° see ship ; brrt he was this year at a church where the special set vice f r the riecession was uted, arid the Q .een was prayed fir six tutee during the morning service In the principal collect there was a petition that the Queen should be defended from the mtchinatiene of ter sub jects ; and be could not think that that was an appro pria-e prayer for the times in which wo lived. (Hear.) The Bishop of LONDON said there was toe greatest possible (tiff:ranee between the present motion and the motion of Lerd Ehury, to which references bad teen made. He had objected to the letter propotal, net because he was afraid of altirat;ons ; on the contrary, he considered that the strength of the Church of England consisted in her adapting herself to the wanks of the age in which we lived. It would, however, be impossible to enter upon a general revision of the L tuigy without rai-erg many points of doctrine; and it. was a great safeguard of the Church of England, that from the Reformation she had included within her pale permits of different religions sentiments, but who could yet concur in the great funda mentals of the faith. Such a revision as the noblelerd con templated would only have led one party to expect te see their own views stereotyped, and to get rid of those whom it waequi e as desirable to retain as themselves. (Hear.) The noble lord complained of the length of the Sunday morning service ; but that was owing to three perfectly independent services—roatint liar y, and communion— being joined together It was the epirei-'n of the bishops, or at least of nearly all ef there, that it was perfectly lawful to separate these services. The reason, there fore, why the services were so long, was because the clergy knew that if they applied to the bishops for authority to separate them, they would raise a storm among the laity. '[he laity had, therefore, no one to thank but themselves. To the motion before their lord ships there could be no objections such as those, which the motion of L^rd Ebary had ca led forth ; because there were no doctrinal questions whatever involved in the discontinuance of the state services. (fleer, hear.) It, was said that the proposal was unnecessary ; but that was not quite the case. The services were said exactly at the tine and iu the plices were they were most (trite tioneble, namely, in the college chap-be If any of their lordships mint into a cathedral on one of tee days on which these services we-re held they wield find i bat the attendance was almost confined to those who were hired. But it was said that they might get rid of these services ithout the ptozess which the law prescribe 1 ; that they were binclieg rin rely by royal nreclamation ; and the rot al proclateatien, it was said, Gad no force in law. But, if that was the cars, vrha position was it in which they placed the sovereign of these realms? Would they say that at the beginning of every reign the sovereign should be called upon to issue a proclamation that had nu tierce of law ? He denied that it bad no force of-law. Thee it- watt said that these eervic-ee-were not bind; hecause they were centrary to the Act of Unifortnity. Was it ersiriv le that the sovereign should, at the be ginnieg cf every reign, i-sue a proclamation which a large portion of the continue:Ay believed to be contrary to the Act of Uniformity ? He should give his vote moat heartily for this resolution, which he was glad had the support of his most reverend friend the Primate. It was not d eairable that when they approached God one word neleruld drop Item their lips which was likely to call forth feelings of indignation on the part of a portion of their fellow-citizens. With re gard to the service relating to tbe unfortunate Charles, he won! leobscrve that whey people read an exaggerated stet: inert, they were somehow ale ays inclined to take the opposite side. Ho begged that their lordships would consider ibis question as one of very great gravity in deed. Was it desirable that the church should exbitit itself as using empty forms, which these services had really become ? The Duke of MARLBOROUGH said it was perfectly true that the eervice to which his noble friend bad at luded could not be altogether defended, as far as their ixpressi , ns were concerned; but he could have wished that the motion should have been modified in ssrno way. These cervices were not to be looked upon solely in the words in which they were composed, but as marking the feeling of the people of this country for those great acts of delivirence which God had vouchsafed to the ration, and he thought they wore worthy to be retained as me morials of those events, which ought to be kept in cool lection. The acts of parliament, if they did vet!. enact their special services, enacted that these great events should be kept in memory. He thought the motion should be so altered that these services, which no reason able person could defend altogether, should yet be re• tamed in a modified f trot. The noble earl said the ser vices ought to be discereir ued, because of the objection. ableness of some of the tx - res,ione; but if they admitted that argument, they must ray that the whole of the ser- V:CeH ought to be rem-delled; and indeed the noble earl sail the motion was but a step to further alteration, and if it were only on that ground, he should ask their lordships riot to agree to ibis motion. The Bishop of BANGOR said they should consider these services as etnaeating from the Crown, and as or dered by the Crown. Ile considered this a question whe ther we should or should not adore the superintending power of the Almighty in gran'ing to us the blessings which we crjoyed as a nation, and hitind'ate ourselves for former sires and transgressions. He had no doubt that they had at one time thought very little of these efrcumstances, and when they were at the I:juice:- 0y they thought very little f these circumstances ; but when - they consider,d the origin elf these services they must, he thought, form a different opinion. He did not defend all the expressions in theme tervices, or say thai , they c , uld not be altered, modified, and improved, b.t upon he w fele tie said they were such as tiM DiOUS the land cot-AA use without rcruple. They mus't re• member that these ,s , ervices we re importer.' as memoriels of some of the mos , Important events in the hietery of the country, etena of the greatest deliverances which they had ixpeinenced as a nation, and they ex reseed that humiliation which they must fe.l a.t 1 - ! ; • of their foreathrre 1.:(1 , 11.e eetl had tnede objectiet 1 ,, the the martyr Charles the First." The f a ct was that King Charles lest his life for the Church of Engine() ; and that was why to was called I.Cene Charles the tusrtyr. Thes e were not ol:sulete set vices , but they were full r f vigour and power: if they ex puuged these services they wou'd be disclaiming the provideece end po er of Ged. The Bishop of OXFORD was quite sure that if they heleved that in assenting to the proposition of the noltle earl they were in any d'gree denying or losing eight of their continued belief in God's superintending I rovi denca over the nation, or the remembrance of errors in times past, not fitly he but every other rnern ter of their lordehips' house would at (Ares refu:e to enter a'n this motion. But he could not coesent ti the proposition which h been laid down by his light reverend friend, be. cause there sere two p o i nts w hi c h th e y should have in view. The fi rs t was, w h et h er t h ey s h ou ld re t a in sereiees far any past events ; but the other, the practical question for them wa4, whetter these cervices should be regarded as the proper exponents ef national gratitude and ra tional humiliation, and he for one could net eo accept these serv.ces. They seemed to him to have a diffcruet tone from any of the other prayer- of the Church of Eng land ; they Intel nothing of the chastened d -vetion which • had characterised the services of the Church of England from the earliest times of the Christian church. He did not think these services could be amended. These ser vices were directed to be used, but practically they were disused, and nothing could be worse than that. He would not trouble their lordships at that hour of the night with any other reason why they asked the Queen to remove these services from the prayer-book. \Vas it the act of Parliament or the proclamation that they wished to rescind ? The Earl STANHOPE—Both. The Bishop of OXFORD said be did not agree with the►. Thcse old acts remained on the statute book as tee- thnonies of rational gratitude, and they should be left there. The acts of Parliament did not order theseservices, but simply enacted that the days should be held in re membrance. Ono said the morning prayers shoal be used —and th..n there was by royal proclamation added to them these services. He did not think that the pecple could now einceroly use the expresiimis r f humiliation which these service-8 contained, and he thought the cer vices of the Church should conta;knv ccprestiou Which 1331 PETITIONS. Mr. BIGGS prasented petitions from LeiceAerAire in favour of the Legalisation of marriages with a deceased wife's sinter. (Matiy other petitions t the same effect from other parts t.f the country were presented.) Alderman COPELAND presented petitions from Stafforeshire against certain clauses in the Local Gc vernment Act proposed by Mr. M'Mahon. GALWAY FREEMEN DISFRANCHISEMENT BILL. The house went int' coorni' t-e on .leis b:11. Ord 1, Mr. BUTT moved that the chairman do leave the chair, believing that if they pr ceeded reel further with the bill they wool l ne con tuittirg a veaniiest is - lattice and plu •ge themselves in hopeless c,tefu-ioe Toe system of the franchise of freemen as it tz.i,ted in Galway was more popular than ;bat v. hich prevailed in any part of the country, for all amzans, artificers, and seamen residing there were admitted freemen, with out any exelnsion on the score of religion, or in any other way. The bill proposed to d.sfra.:2chise the poor freemen, e.hile they left the noble I..rd who oh tiined his seat in that house by their votes in quiet povsession of it. Another member of that house bad openly declared that he had taken part in those acts of bribery, and yet no notice of that declaration was taken, while the whole weight of Parham. nt was brought down upon those poor freemen ho probable in cons!eq , .enci of want had bast) indusod accept a bribe. (liesr ' hear.) cortider•A tio:t nt atiertdnient that could be in4oduiiid into the bill would make its provisions consonant with ju•tice. Mr. CLIVE, who has charge of the bill, said t"e hon and lcarited gentleman (Hr. Butt) had stated that if they proceeded with the bill they would be involv: d in marifest Injustice and hopeless corruption. He (Mr. Clivt) considered that if they did not proceed they would encourage manifest bribery and corrup tion. Wi'h regard to the evidence taken bef,re the committee in reference to the bribery of these men, he considered that it wan the duty of the house to take some ni;tice of the. report of the roar ittee. Mr, WALPOLE thought it VP 4 , 4 urjuet to proceed against sorne, while others were, left untouched. The Att , Toey-General f.)r Peland ha'l given notice of an amendment, dealing with the bribers as well as the bribed. Tt'at proposition in itself would lead to very long and very serious discussion, which be thought they would not get through to-day. Another discus ski) must be taken on the third reacinag, and be doubted whether they would be able to get thu bill in proper shape into the. House ( f Lords this session. Mr. J. D. FITZGERALD said that, as systematic corruption and bribery on the part of the freemen of Galway had been proved, the house ought to deal with the question, notwith,tanding the advanced period of the session. Ie did not care which course was adopted, either disfranchising the whole of the frteuaen, or only dieranchising these who had been proved to have given or received bribes, which was the ammendment of the Attorney-General for Ireland. Corruption reigned in the whole body of freemen, and Parliament would be trifling with the subject if it shirked the bill now before the house. If tkis bill were dropped the people would come to the conelivion that election com mittees were all humbug. (Hear, hear.) Mr. BERESFORD HOPE was quite prepared to admit that freemen in various part- , of the country had been subject to the gentle violence of the pur-e ' but thought that it was unfair to disfranchise a large body of seen in consequence of the malpractices ota few. Mr. AYRTON had no hesitati n in saying that this bill proposed the most unhappy plan he had ever witnessed t for carrying out a measure of justice. lie did not think that, with the prom pest of a measure of Parlia mentary Reform for nee ee.sion, they should mete public time now in a p'ece of exceptional legielati , a. Mr. BENTINCIC. thought they could not proceed with the hill without ii.flicting a great and glaring in justice. The zest with which the hon. gentlema n (Mr. C lee) pres-ed on the bill would lead to the supposition that he and his political friends had some ulterior object beyond the punishment of these poor freemen. Mr. KEli. SEYME ft thought that hi 1 founded upon reports of committees should be taken up by the Govern ment, in- rnuch as it was almost impossible for a private merubtr to carry through such a bill successfully. As far as he was c•uncerned, he should support the bill in its integrity. Mr. CONINGHAM considered that as the freemen of Galway hal proved themselves so corrupt, they ought to be di-franchised in a body. Mr. WHITESIDE thought thbt if proceedings weie taken the bribers as well as the bribed should be punished. The bribers eqrrup'ed the virtue of these pn:.r freemen for tbeir FA:tient ends, and were now will ing- to destroy them. (Hear, hear.) • Mr. COLLINS urged OA, if the freemen of Galway were not to be pnaished, Alhaus had been improperly punitb,d. - Mr. WARREN said that certain d the witnesse4 in this commission had come forward and made a clean breast upon the promi4o that they should not be visited with any pains or ptlialties, and now it - was proposed to visit them with the ve ry highest Paths mentsry penalties.

The Royal Commi6rioners were the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Hard wicke, and Earl of Delawarr. Lord ItEDZSDALE presided during the remainder of the rifting. Lord STANHOPE said he wont(' now refer to the s:rt, ices of the 30th of January and 29. b of May, There were acts of per lament directing those days to be eh served, of the 12th and 13:b of Charles II , but no ser vices were provhied ; it was idit to other authorities to provide theme In this case the convocation of 1661 eid provide such services. That convocation would not in re-Fee a cemesend itself greatly to the religious be!- in; f tl'e present day, for it directed that a portion of the Apour . ‘ pits aheu:d be - used fur the lessons of the church. By it two new alines were drawn up for tbe 30h of January and the 29th of May. Dr. Sancroft Fe *posed tbe,e services to the convocation, but it reins, to adopt them ; and a royal proclamation was thereepon i sue erjeining by the King's authority the use of the very forms which the convocation bad rejscted. So far, therefore, from the services for the 30th of Jenuary and the sth of Nov. having received the approval of convo cation, that body bad actually deetne d to sanction their tee. There was, therefore, no authority beyond the royal proclamation for these services in their present form ; and as for the act of parliament, they would of course become obsolete the moment the crown ceased to insist on the use of the services. He (the noble earl) next came to the question, were those services such as would be desirable, for their intrinsic merit, to retain I He must, for his own part, confess that he found an ohjec ii‘ n in the very title of that for the 30:h of January. He considered that the name of martyr ought, at all events in divine worship, to be reser. eel for those Celia tiaes who, neither than renounce their faith, soffered at the hands of Pagan persecutors. To apply it to a king who, however barbarously had been put to death by his own subjects—who, however orrirg and guilty, were nevertheless Chii,tians, seemed to him (the noble earl) to be a c enple's misapprehens on cf the term. (Cheers.) He (the noble earl) could not admit that C. arks I. belonged to that noble army who were cele brated in another and very beautiful part of the Liturgy ; but when he came to the details of the service he felled it even still more of jectionable than its title ; for a parallel was drawn in it between the sufferings of cur Divine Itodeemer and those of King Charles, ths. tee's of the 0:d Testament, which were' prophetic of the pas sion, being drawn out in array and applied to the royal martyr. (Bear.) He found in it, too, a prayer in which Kieg Charles was spoken of as the "greatest kings and the best of men." Was it desirable tbatthe authority of the church should appear to be given to a statement like that I Many el their lordships might no doubt feel, as he tthe noble earl) himself felt, much sympathy for the fate of Charles I.; but that was no reason why a state ment like that to which he had referred should remain in the public services of the church, To the service for the sth of November similar remarks applied.; and he would ask whether it was desirable to maintain fermu larke which were no longer applicable, and which were held in estimation by no school in the national church. (Hear) He proposed to adopt the form of moving an a:dress to her Majesty, in preference to prop %sing the repeal . f the statutes, and that for several reasons. Iu the fi ,t place, ashe had already observed, if the services were discontinued, the statutes would immediately be come oheohte. But, in any case, the form of an address would be the most respeethil to tbe Crown. Tue preree genre of the Crown was the first. thing ihat would be K ff, c tsd. It was signified at the commence went of etch reign by a proclamation tigne.l by the soverrian, an. counter-hue by the secretary of state ; and if, there fore, they prom led to rep• al the eels without taking any notice of the prerogative, their conduct would hardly be eoneeistent with that respect which they would all he anxious to show to her Msjeety. Tice proper course w therefore he to commence with an address to the Crown, aftsr which it weuld t e comp• tent to her Ma ja-ty'e Ministers either to advise her to withdraw {h. proclamation at once or to proses t.t e p-... the statute-. (Meer, h , a:.) Toe service for the anniversary el tee accession was more ancient than any of the other three. It could be re aced to the reign of Queen Ellza beth and the year 1570. There was also a case ie. which proceedings had been threatened against a clergyman tiamsd Johnson, who in the reign rf George I La i refused to lead it, probably because be, had scruples as to the right of the Hanoverian succession. He made, however, his submission, and the matter went no further. was remarkable that notwithstanding the emphatic manner in which the proclamation was worded, the use of these forms practically depended after all upon the feeling of each individual clergyman. In 1844 there was published upon this sul j• et a work which, theugb not free front some prepossession, was di-tinguiehed by learn ing and research—" How shall we Coeform to the Liturgy ?' by the Rev. Jae. Robertson ; and this gentle man's cenclusion was thus summed up :—" Wo very rightly use these state services, provided that there is no thing iu them which we do not consider wrong; but we are not ob;iged to use them, because they form no part of be services of the chui eh as by law e. t eblished." In paint t f fact, there were very few churches in which these days were observed, in less they happened to fall en a Sunday, in which case it occasionally happened that a few prdyers selected from the prole! services were in troduced into the ordinary services of the day. It might be asked, why thus disturb the present state i f thiegs ? The services did, however, continue to be us ..ti in the college chapels and cathedrals, althou g h there were s ome cathedrals which bad discontinued them. One of the latest examples of this kind was the ea‘leedral church of Canterbury, where the services had lately been omitted by the authority of the dean and chapter, and with the sanction of the most rev, prelate who presided over the southern province. Still it must be admitted that the cathedrals and college chapels were in this matter some what behind the parochial churches, which be thought was te be regretted, for they ought to be examples to the rest, and not to follow in the rear. The service for the sth Nov. was seldom used except under the prompt ing of a strong party feeling. Where a clergyman was strongly opposed to Roman Catholic principles, it was no doubt hi s r i g ht an d hi s duty to warn his flock against I them; but he denied that that c old be done in any eats the people did not really and in deed feel—the fore he agreed in this motion. It should be dist'ne'l understood that there was in this no alteration of the Book of Common Prayer. It bad been said that this motion was only for an instalment of other amendments, but he thought it was one of those motions v hick would prevent others being brought forward. He looked upon the Book of Common Prayer as ore of the greatest blessings. oir Liturgy bad been formed from the earliest times of the Christian church, and we inherited it free from the superstition of more modern times. The proposition bef. re their lordships did not touch the Book cf aunt/ion Prayer. The services marred to ware a mere a.n:.exation to the Book of Oem man Prayer, by virtue of the proclamation of the cove reigr. and might be removed and liar,. fit. P,:.: - ,77 . -`No.k just the came its it. But Fe: pisil of the motion which ho elated to e altered. It included the cervices fur the accts: inn of her Mcjqsty, and played her Majesty to issue a new proela aut;on. He s:fould be content to leave that ser vice as it now stood. He thought their lordships ought to pause before taking any new step to give new autho city, and should be sorry to see, in answer to the address, a proclamation altering that rervice, unless it was to be used. lie thougl.t it desirable there should be a ervica of prayer and tbanlugivirg far the accession of the cove. reign. He doubted not that the prayer of the Init!011 annually offered up for the sovereign drew down blet. Sings upon the throne of ;Lat sovereign ; but care ought to be taken to render the service fit f,r the orcasinth an one which e•mill be used uniformly. He thought a short addition to the service used on the Sunday nearest th , , day of accession would be the most desirable course to adapt ; but at present in his opinion it would be bet- ter not to mention that service in the address, and hi would sug,;est that the motio n s h ou ld be confined to the other three pervuee. The B:sbep cf CASHEL believed that nearly all the weal-thinking and zealous members of the Church of En4lari and Ireland desired to see these services re rn, vtd from che Prayer-hook, always remembering 'hat they were not a part c,f the Prayez-b..ok at all. Lord CAMPBELL impressed his mtiefecticn at the manrer in which the motion bad been received by their 'orilebies, and said he believed the change now proposed ti ould render the Prayer-book sill dearer to the mem , ere ot the united churches e f England and Ireland. lordship: were now asked to agree to do f rtnally that which for so many years had been done in!ormaily. Tbere was another thing wanting to cons pl to the object which his noble friend (Earl Stan to,ie) had in view. Their lordships were ewers that the dui y pray rA in thlt house inclu led words re lating to the Gunpowder PI t. Ile h d spoken to seve /al or the right rev, prelates on tbe subject, hod no one was able to tell him bow the words gut into the ec rviee, or how to get them 'out. - Re - trusted th(y writ:ld mu eider fOill3 means by which the services might be re lievrd Irons those wo:ds. The Ent of MALMESBURY riitl not ri a to oppose the motion of the noble earl, but thought he was not taking the beet course to accomplish his object. ec• tirely differed from those who wished the acts of Parlia ment to remain as rnenvotials of the times which had been referred to. It ibese ads of Parliament had pro duced thee() proc'ama;rons he thought they were very objtTiortlble, ant could not underetaod why the cause should be retained and the tffeet be abolished. He thought the noble earl, instead of inviting her 'Majesty to rtpcal the proclamatons, ought to endeavour to re peal are statutes, and then the proclamations would fall to the ground. By pureeing such a course an opportu nity would be afforded to the other house of expressing its opinion ; but, as the matter now stood, the motion wor:li only Le an expression of the opinion of their lor& ships. The B shop of ST. ASAPII begged to say that his right rev. brother, the Bishop t‘f Bangor, did not stand alone in Lis objections to the 'notion, for he himself felt bound to pretest against it. Lard REDESDA LE thought it most desirable that the preytr which had been referrtd to by the t oble and learned lords should be txpunged from the daily service of the huge. The words objected to by the Bishop of Oxford having b;cir struck out, the motion, as amended, wat put and agreed tn. - UNIVERSiIsIES' AND COLLEGE S ' ESTATES] BILL. This bill was rend a eecond time.
