Bankers and others are busily employed, and, taking advantage of the increased demand, they are enabled to exact higher rates. At the same time there is an abundant supply, and as soon as the engagements now maturing are liquidated the quotations will probably recede. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday mani fested a very firm and rather animated appearanc and prices were fully maintained. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales, 3,000 of which were taken on speculation and for export. At the meeting of the Worcester and Hereford Railway Company to-day, Mr. Price, M.P., in the chair, the bill for an extension of time for making the above line was assented to unani mously; and the bill for approving of the agree ment made between the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Railway, the Oxford and Worcester, and the Midland Railway Companies, for working the Worcester and Hereford Railway, and for other purposes, was also agreed to unanimously.

The Bishop of OXFORD presented petitions from several places in Oxfordshire againet the abolition of church rates, unl-!sq an ectoivilent weri provided. THE SLAVE TRADE. The Bishop of OXFORD begged to ask the noble earl, the Under-Secretary to the C .1 .niee, when the papers relating to the horrible crime which had been the subject of discussion the other n'ght, would he laid on the table ? and also with renpect t 3 the exportation if c. odes, wile that her Mej 3ety's Government were prepared to take in hand such meazuros as might be necessary for purifying that trade ? Toe reason why he was anxious to get an answer was not only that the immediate evil, the kidnapping of men, might be checked by the interference of the government, but also because the legitimate exporta tions of those who were willing to go-4 thing of the first moment—(hear, hear, from Lord Brougham) —was endangered by the continuance of the compulsory exportation which brought upaa the free emigration the taint cf the slave trade. Tee different joitrnels in this country in the interest of slavery would stu• diously and laboriously endeavour to represent that he and those who took the sane vies with him were opposed to the free emigration of *Relies. Nothing could be more un•rue. The exportation of CO elies _ to the Mauritius was attended with great benefit not only to the island but to the coolies themselves, who being perfectly free, often 'rcturned home, and, by their accounts, induced their countrymea to emigrate. It seemed of the greatest moment to put a stop to the forced ; xpertatior, as the rise of that ill.cit traffic threatened the existence of the wholesome exoortation whicl, it was so desirable to en courage and promote The Earl of CARN..4RVON said that with regard to the papers every possible despatch should be masks is producing them; at the same tine, since they were of great length; he did not think they could be laid on the table before ten days or a fortnight hence. As re garded the other point, a insecure was at that mo ment iu preparation by his right honourable friend at the head of the Colonial Department, and he hope 1 it mould be in his power some time next week to lay the bill on the table, and ask their lordships to give it a first reading. Lord BROUGHAM said that how his noble friend was misrepresented, es he had been, was to him utterly incredible. He had not the least objection him.elf to the legitimate emigration of Coolies to our own seta -- meets of the Meurieius and the colonies, wherever their personal Meer y would be t no:red.

On the motiwn of Lord RepeteuaLE, the Lancashire and Yorkshire and Etst L eecashire Railway Corn. ponies bill was read e second time, and the fel swing were read a third time and re, , :2d, viz.:—Sir Binjecniu Halt's Estate, Belby arid Worksep Read, Llanelly Harbour, Waterford (1.1,9, Halif ix Park and Improve ments (as amended), Dean Forest Turnpike Trust (as amended) ; and Andover Canal Railway (es amended) bills. COLONISATION IN INDIA. Toe Earl cf ALBERNIARLE moved, "That a mes sing:l be sent to the House of C maroo ns f or a copy o f t h e firs: report from the select committee of the House of Commons on colonisation and settlement (India); and to call the attention of the house to the vast importance of an exteu,ive settlement of British-bern sul jecta in letbia, with a view to the promotion of the moral and meteri-il interest of that country, and its security against future insurrection, as well as to advert to the main ob !Facies whicto are at presen opposed t itverds such a set tlement." Some most importent evidence had been given befcte :his committee, and it was lk-ly that their lordships would be called on to legislate upon the sub ject nex, session. The witnesses examined before the committee w. ro all men of intelligence.- He was con vinced that a large infusion of Europeans into Indian soe'ety, end an extensive conversion to Christianity. were the en y me-ens by which our empire in India could be maintained. It was only since 1853 that Europeans generally hat been permitted to•enter the country, and now they c.-u!d only do so wi h the license of the E.st India Company. They naturally lo lied for protection to their prone and property ; tat there was a want of a proper administration of just ice wlaich had been adulated everesinci 1853. A cominksion then appointed had c rst the country 800.000/.., but its auegestions had been worse than ucol. us. The commissioners recomen a-led the abo lition of the Queen's courts; and by the " Black Art," as it was called, Edropeattm ware deprived of trial by jury and habeas corpus. Toe judges of the courts were the enupaey's servants, whose utter incompeency fer their office had been pointed out I,y Mr. Halliiay, the Lieut.-Governor of Benibiy. It was said that the com pany's servants knew the language of the country, but it was impossible they could know them al!. Not only would the Europeans be sulj-et to the jerisdiction of these courts, but also to that of native judges. In the pre eidency of 11 Arnhay there were no lass than 65 Sepey judges, some of whom had r;be.11,4. There w-re also f great , U 8 to the t xsting syetem of laud revenue, and ut.less sonetbing more nearly approaching to revo!u lotion than ref trot were adopted, our supremacy in India would be at an end. The ad , easmelit was most ex mr bi taut ; in most cases nine-tenths of the produce was claimed as rental. The talookdar ry,tern, introduced by Lord Cornwallis in 1793 into Bermgel, tsas the only re deemieg feature in our Gevernment ; in all other parts of India, where it did not prevail, th• re had been severe and frequent famine, The talookdarrs held their hands by a Vtle not more excepti inatee than that ny which marry of their lordship held their e tates. In the north west provinces, which were ceded and conquered in 1801 and IEO3, the permanent system established in Bengal had been promised, bug ova: never granted. In ni my cases the whole cf the lend had been sxeeted for the rent; and the result wet the present rebellion, with all its horrible ceesequ.rices e The pepie were everywhere iu favour of the talookiers, who were received with epen arm+, although dep-ived of their land. Till a clear on derstaudiug wag arrived at between th 3 (Government and the talookdare he believed that • w 1,, Lam pseeible. The svo...ti 1,,r1 ought to be mu neiesteee soi anise, having boon established in perfect ignorance ct the wand of the country. The course we had been purvuing in In lie was witeout any precedent in history. Oer prelec ss , ,ra ba I won the country by the sword; btus it wee not with the sword that they had retained it. They had retained it by stealing on the scene of their couqueste. The Cain.: thing had been done in Coatral and South America ; but in India, after an occupation of a emtury, there were scarcely a thc.u sand permanent European settlers. The Earl of MALNIESBUft V regretted that the. noble earl shou'd have selected such a moment f mr specu lations such as those in which he had just in bulged. He (Lord MalmeßbtlrY) was afrair: there would riot be much temptetion for Europeans t i colonise India until the • • int y was in a more settled state. content - to Wei - unri' tLu cerninittee whielo uow•eit• ting on the subject made its report -Toe Duke. of NEWCASTLE neal _net bp - . ix )res , 'the regret with which-he had hi.ard_the sees e'er .4 the noble e. rl. For a long series of years they bad had com mittee after committee, and commission after emminia sion, aid their lordship's table was laden with evidence which, if anybo ly 'could read it, would give them all the information they could possibly desire. He could not, therefe re, see what advantage calid be expected from the report of the a mlmittee now sitting. (Hear, beer ) He Lope], therefore,- that her Majesty' s Government would deal a urageouisly with this subject, for they had a great opportuaity before them. (Rear, hear.) Per il:lir:ea was helpless : they were willing to be saved, if the Government. would only come fer ward and save th-m. (Hear.) Every step they had hitherto taken in th's matter had been a step in the wrong direction. On!y last year he had venture] to °Filet to the passine of an act which lied greatly complicated the difficulty—the act, namely, which vested the cen•ervaucy e f the river in the C wporation e f the City of London, but ho had only received the supp-rt of five noble 1 )rcls. In the present state of things an arbitrary act would be absolutely neces sary. (Hear.) They would never accomplish ther a• unless they gave the Government power to deal with the quest on themselves. If they referred to the history of sanitary impr Ivement, they would find that the same thing had al ways occurred. Take the as ecf the burial gr .undo, an evil, however, which could not be for one moment compared with that under which the metropolis was now suffering, and respecting which he believed there bad been some exeggerati n. But an evil it was, &tad ne reme ly for it could be f 'and until they gave the S.cretary of State power by a peremptory order to clo e every cemetery he thought proper. He booed that a short bill cenferri g upon the G. vernment the neces• eery powers wen d be brought in as soon a: possible. (Hear.) None of the schemes that had been proposed would meet the case. Mere °gehapt meat v, oul not do. Embanken nt on bo h sides would no doubt be found essential ; but uz.la s it was accompanied by a @mem of intero"pting sewers it would abaelute'y increase the evil. The river must be brought back to the state it was in former years, and to the state in which the Sine now was in the city of Paris. (Hear.) They mu,t, in short, be prepared to expend a very large sum I f money ; but without i.xerensing any opinion as to whether the public should not bear some portion t f the cost, he hope] the Government woul I not consent to spare the metropolis any very large amount of the burden. The metrop die was ae enormously wealt y community, and it ought to be able to provide itself with. everything neces-ary for the preservation e f the health of lee inha'eitante. (dear.) Un less they took immediate steps to abate the present nuis ance, they must expect, not typhus or cholera merely, but a second plague. They seemed to be entirely upon a cycle of hot seasons ; and though, by the i leesing, • f Ged, they might escape this year, they could not hope to do so a second tine. (liar ) Ile truste i, then f re, 'hat the geveinmeet would not wait f r the report of the committee to which the noble eat I hat referred. Tnerei.urus were then ordered. _ TFIE RIVER. _ . The Earl of HARD WICKE said that the , :nly diffi cult) , the Government felt was as to the proper course to be adopte I under the circumstances. The corn .nit . ee was not sitting oil the general question of draining the metropolis, but its Inquiries had special ref.rence to the state of the river. He thought the committee wool I very speedily come to its decieioo, for there could be no gr at chiller. ty in determining that the river was iu a very ;Lir:- genus condition, and it was no d.ubt the intel:tiou of the Government to act upon the repot.% (Rear, hear.) It seemed to him that in draining the metropolis they had begun at the wrong end. Tau most ordinary labourer would have t Id them that in making a drain they ought to b , gin at the outdid!, instead i•f which they had prt eiseded to ab Ili di the old cesspook and to drain into the existing sewers without determining where the sull+ge should go. To remove the mud of the liver would effect little, for it was the water itself that was inf.- ct,J. There was no way in which they c )uld satisfactorily drat with the nuisance unless they made a large main sew, r, which woul I carry the refuse of the metropolis directly to the sea. (Hear.) The residium of the sewage was of no v 4.1 .1.. s at all in an agricultural point of view—all its valuable ingredients being held in suTe• as by the water itst If (Hear.) They in rb rt must be prepared to spend three or four tnillions of money upon the works that wou'd be r‘quired. (Hear, hen-.) E.rl GRAN VILLE said the hon=e was entitled to hear the opinions, not of the nol,la tail, but if the Go vernment; and he hoped that at the teat metti•ig .of their lordships they would do so. (Hear, hear.) L.)rd CAMPBELL refgrred to the state of the courts at Westinice,er, and was understood to say, that if things went ou as they did at present, it would be ne cesssry to move them to WI rd or S!. Alban s, or tome other provincial town. L)r e d PORTMAN iaid a noble lord had talked of re• storing the Thames t r the state in which it was in former years ; hutlthat was not easy to do, for they abstrac ed froin it 82,000 000 galloni of pure eater which they did no: restore till it had been t. r ,ugh all the water close s i❑ London. (Rear, bear, and a laugh.) If they proposed to commit this matter to a committee, it - nu•st not be one consisting of rnsny persons. (Hear, hear) It would be far better to have only one man whom they could trust, but at all events the fewer the better. (Cheers.) He hoped an act of P.►rliacnent would be passed without de- Isy for the purpose of carrying out this suggestion ; but in the meantime he would remind their 1. rdshipr that nothing could be more dangerous than to create a plsgue panic, (Rear, hear.) The Marquis of SALISBURY agreed with the noble lord that nothing could be more prejudicial than to create an alarm of pestilence. The subject was one of great dif ficulty. A few years ago a Metropolitan B:ard of %Yorks WAff oppoihted, and things bad been a great deal worse t'san ever they were before. The hubj,ct had act e; l :caped the at..ereion of the G ivernnaent; and he hoped that the pr-s,-lit session would not pass without some result. E trl GREY said the observationsof the noble marquis had filled him with ex , rerae dieappoin•meut. There was one thing even worse than creating a panic, and that was to under-estimate the , mageitude of the danger. (Cheer.) If any of their lordshipe would go into the library he wouid leave them to ray whether they bad ever emelt anything like it before. (A. laugh.) It was was trupos,inle to conceive how such a smell could fail to be eminently prejedicial to the public health. (Hear.) He quite a ;reed that it would be far be ter to entrust the matter to one, two, or three professional men of emi cense. If, f instance, such a man as Mr. Stephenson, weuld undertake the werk, so much the bett r ; but at all events they should appoint only two er three persons, and make them reeponeible for the work. Give them authority to sp-nd money under the en e eeee , f . t , Government, and ertee se thoat etch means. (dear.) L r.l Lll::::::e.Dee..LE agreed with the noble lord as to the desirability of putting the matter e to the hands of Borne p no:, if any engines r of eufficient, eminence wood undertake the task, Whoev,r came fer, Nerd, however, see told have to throw himself, like eurtius, into the gulf, and he must expect to fiud himself txe .s -:et ely ahu ('' hear." and a laugh.) This was a Tiestien which not merely affected London, but all other towns. The condition they hail brought Leaden to was very reerly that of every other town in the country. Nearly all the rivers and water channels in the country were being rendered impure, and uille.es this quettioa was taken up generally throughout the caue• try, and a new ey-tear adepted of getting rid of the filth of towns, there was no telling what the consequences might be. He might state what hal occurred this year with regard to Manchester. In Manchester they cleansed the town by means of °thievd.; and local arrangements, which, he was iaf e-med, were admirably managed. There was a bill Mere Parliament connected with that town. It was a water bill, be believed, and in a I water hills there were certain provisions e hich he might almost gay wets stereotyped. Tee perdes came before him, arid die• tinetly said that any system of that sort would be preju dicial to the town, and that at present all the filth was removed through the act of the corparatien. He said he could not take upon himself the reaponei'ei.ity of placing them in a diff :rent position from all otlier tewns; but, if they would put in the preamble the bills state ment that there was such a state of things, he would raise no obj !cti n ; but he was told that the committee of the Commons would not hear of the provisions of the hill being different front those of other towns. It might be all right, but he t obeyed that the system of turning all this filth into the sewers and thence into the water c urses and rivers would produce in the country evils similar to that which now off toted London. From hav ing lewd bills brought before elm, ho knew that teie evil Was spreadia'. He had had complaints from various districts ; there seemed a general desire to gat rift of the filth of town., with agentral inability te accomplish the object in any other way than that which was no v be coming so prevalent. He believed that one ef the causes that had led to the impurity of the Thames bad been the taking away of old London Bridge, and getting rid of the darn which the lei Ige made. Before that was done, scarcely any of the tide water came up above bridge at all. Now, the tide flowed a long way up the river and brought back al! tee impurities. He thought that the expense of the drainage at London ought t r fell solely on the district. When they remembered the enormous works new being carried on in all the provincial towns for the improvement of those towns, which did not aik for one sixpence of the public money for those improve reente, and would not get it if they did, surely they would not look to any other source than the wealthy MEI• tropolis for the expenses of its own dra•nage. Lord EIIURY said be was exceeding glad that atten tion bad been called to this Alla ct, because it was not London only, but a great many other towns in the king dom were suffering from the impurity of the rivers, which were polluted with drains. Two or three years ago a .Nnisance Removaland Prevention Bill was recom mended to the House of Commons by a commi tee, which sat for a ling time and entered into a variety of details, and in that bill a eleure. was inserted teat no manufac turer should be allowed to discharge the offensive mat ter produced in !be maeufactery webeut the beet kaown reared. ; f r renderirg the matter CO di-charged innocneue, regard to gas, there were at iogent provisions in the various gas acts t prevent the eis charee and the re'use, ana if the house wool I in the next General Health Bid insert a similar claaise with re gard to toter enanefac conies, t'acy would do a grea t deal to remedy the evil th e y were now oomplai e i ng of. Until within the last 10 or 12 pare, they had cemeniseioners of sewers for the various districts of London, whose duty it was to prevent any one turning filth into the sewers. But the Legielature chose to insist on a different system being adopted, and now, instead of no private individuals being a l lowed to drain their houses into the sewer, they were all compelled to do so. They must not blame the local authorities too much, because it was only lately that this syet etn had been adopted, and it was Parlie went Lliat had compelled them to adopt it. With regard to the Board ef Works, he did not think any men could have been more laborious and painstaking than the gen tlemen compasing that board had been. They bad exa mined plans and consulted engineers, and they went to the late Government, and said, " If you will give ua a tittle assi-tance by a guarantee, so that we shall not have ,o barrow money at a ruinous inter fits TN eau proceed The Duke of BUCCZEI:IO - fl . said thafe although there were three or four bodies who were charged with the rare of the ta!tropolita l sewage, nothing whatever bad been done t ) improve the state of the names. lie did not bring f ward the subject as a question of personal annoyance, because, alth oug h the stat e o f th e r i ver was no doubt a grievous annoyance to him on account of the ne arness of his house, h e b a d i t i n hi e power to go-else where. The same might be said of there lordships ; but there were large bodies of their lillow•subjecas who must perf, rue submit to the nuisance and the peril of the pre sent state of things. (Cheers.) He (the noble duke) some times beard itsaid, "Oh, but the stench is not so bad as it was yesterday." The truth, however was that a change of the wind bad only relieved them at the expense of their neighbours. There might, fa- in stance, be days when their lordships would be scarcely cognisant of the nuisance, but when the smell at Lambeth would be int 'le- Table. The condition of the river had been rapidly alter ing for the worse during the last few years. Many causes ha I no doubt contributed to that result. The enormous increase of the population and the improvements which had been made in the drainage of the metr , polis had been greatly instrumental in bringing about this change and the extraordinary dryness of the reason had also had a good deal to do with it. Formerly it WAS found that what little offenelveness the river possessed was at low water ; but now the wort, time was before and just after high water. He believed that the action of the steatnere during the last ten year s b a d dlminished the amount of mud in the neighbourhood of the house, but the removal of old London•bri•sge had, by increasing the ec icr, and thereby deepereog the channel, caused more of the rivet's bed to be exposed at low water. A great many schemes bad been erloeed for renatelying the nui• sane e They were told for instan ce, that they might get rid of it altogether by simply embanking the river. No doubt by that means they woul l gat rid of the mud which was now exposed at low water, but it was the water itself that was it fected. Some people ag in said that it was oily on the upper part of the river that the nui sance was c implaieed of ; but that was not true. The medical °Seers on board the Deeednought complained just as loudly as any one el e o f t h e , fflevia which came from the Thaulei. The passengers on boail the s t ea m e rs had materially decreased, and iustances were not rare of Fors ~ns having to be remelted from the yes. ee l, in aOa or fainting c , ndit on. One (lag; of Asiatic cholera arising from the stencli h a d a l rea d y lo3en re ported, and it was ilrea, , itu to thick what ou'd he the result if an epidemic (cue to break out. (Hear) He thought the tuatto-r hal c),Lie to rich a state that their lordships were bound to press upon the executire the ee l essity of taking gime steps in order t m remedy the evil. (Loud cheers.) Thu Earl of MA I.AIIeaBURY said the noble duke had not at all exaggerated the unf itunato condition of the river ; and Ise could not but feel, in common with their lerdsbipe that it was disgrac e f u l to t h e coun t r y that such a state of things should have ocourr,d, and that there should have been so much mismanagement, for he could give it no other natne. (Rear.) There could be . no doubt that it was the duty of htr Majesty's Minis ters to take imtnedia,te steps to arrest, it rossiae, thh ovii ; but their lordships rr, is , b.) a ware that an act of Parliament would be necessary to give the Government the necessary'powers.

He sugge•ied that the in6uths of the sewers should he carried &two by m ana of iron pipes to low wat r, inet,.ad of being at hi h water as at present. - Toe Earl of NIALNIE,;BURY rem4rkel that the Chairman of the Board of Works wrote a letter to Chancellor of the Exchequer sugge.ting that Govern ment Alleu'd give their security for a sum of money to be raised executing the works. That letter was written in JvAiary, 1857 and from that day to this the Chairman of the Boar,l of Work , , h -ivied no answer. The Duke nt BUCCLEUCEI said he hoped the G ;- verntnew, wou'd be able a xt week to state what their intentions w,rm on the suTct.

He said there were 700 acres of church property in the parish which was let on building leases, and as the district churches were very poor, the parishioners thought they were en tithd to have the benefit of that property for the ecclesi astical requirements of their own parish. The Earl of ALBEMARLE moved for the papers, proc,?eiings, and c.l respondence retative to the impri sonment of Shiv Deen Pnttail, British Jageerdar of Baitool in the S.tugor and the Nerbudda territories, the ineatceration of Us sons and other his adherents, and also the confiscation and sale by public auction of all his property, pei , onsland real, and the ejectment from their homes of his female riletivee and children, in conse quence of orders given by the Biitieb authorities of Jab bult),•re, tangor, and the Nerbudda t e rrit o ri es .

The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 (Mock. THE LATE ATTACK. Off THE BRITISH CON SUL AT.BELGRADE. Mr. GRANT DUFF asked the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether any detailed account e f the recent event• at Belgrade had been received by the Go cerement relative to the late attack on the British Consul at Belgrade, and if so whether he ha•i any objec tion to state the substance of it to the house ? Mr. S. FITZGER ALD said that the Government had received a more detailed account of the particulars of the attack than was in his possession w hen the question was asked him on a former occasion. It appeared that Mr. Fonblanque was walking, as usual, ou the ramparts of the town, and sat down ou a wall that skirted it. Lie was beckoned to by one if the soldiers on the fortress ablve, but Mr. Fonblatque, who know that be was entitled to be where he Was pointed to his cap to signify that lie was the British Consul.

The Turkish Government bad shown the most cordial wish to give every satisfac ion, and had mani fested every desire to probe the affair to the bottom, and had declared that they would be ready to punish, in the most exemplary rnatner, the authors of the outrage. There were other circumstances which showed that the hostile feeling was net confined to the soldier buuselt a h.) inflicted the injuries on the British Consul, but that it was participated in by his commander, because there was an attempt after wards made to cut do wn the British flag at Mr. Fonblanque's house.

(Hear.) RIG-FAIR ON SUNDAY. On the motion that the house on its thing do adjourn to M.,nday, Mr. K:SEYMER said that two or threes years ago he had called the attention of the house to the scenes that took place in Rag-fair on the Sunday, and narrated what he had seen himself, He should not have brought forward the subject again had not his attention been directed to it by the report e f some proceedifigs at the MansionO-ouve Polite-court, which appeared in the papers of the 15. h of June. It was stated, "Thomas Beate was charged with having committed a robbery on Sunday, at had-past 11 o'clock, in the Clothes Ex change, Petticoat-lace, in the neighbourhood of which 14,000 or 15,000 people congregate every Sunday, some to buy arid sell, and uthera (the great maj irity) to plunder." The letter statement must be taken with some qualification. Thieves do not steal from thieves ; it could only be a minority who went there t) plunder. The report continued, " It was stated by the police that it was quite impossible fur the officers to do aaything all amongst such a mass of people, and that any per sons who were so Filly as to carry property about them in the immediate neighbourhood must be content to part with it, rind would he lucky if they got away without being roughly handled and kicked." At the conclusion of the case the Lord Mayor sai I There is proof of the existence of another desperate evil. Teat somebody is culpable for the cent nurnice of so outrageonea viola tion of the law as the permission of such a state of things, on the borders of the oity cf London, there can be no doubt. I hairs said so frequently since the comineccement of my mayoralty, hut there appears to be no symptom of improvement. On the contrary, the mi , chief seems to be on the in ci ease. I commit this prisener for trial at the Central Criminal Court, where I trust route allusion will be made to the state of the vicieity of Petticoat-lane by same high aualority, from whose interposition some effective regulation way spring." He bad ro rieiore to re-open the question of Sie I .v tra .c to .ut,iteto tl,-. con I.rt or ceeeenience of the workirg classes, de regretted the difective arrangements which ren dered necessary Sunday markttieg. This, however, was not a qu.stion of Sunday marketir g. Perishable arti cles of food were the only things nut sold there ; it was a mere question of NI cc. If a man who felt called en to preaeh in the open air galste d helfoodi zsn people round hire, he was taken before a maoistrete for obstruct. ing the teuroughfaie ; rif an orange woman rested her bes!tet on the legs she wss ordered to move ou ; yet Petticoat-1 ire and Hatroe -lane, on Sundays, between eleven and one, were obstructed to such an extent as to render it dangerous to go there, and that by th e worst 0 1, 11'3 in London. He th eight this was a sufficient jus tification for the question of which he had given notice, viz., 'A 'nether the Secretary of S ate for the Home De partment intended to take any sores for the suppression of the Sunday fair in Hound, itch / S:r R. CARDEN' said that when Lis attention was first dravro to the col jeot of Petticoat-lane, he could not believe such aboriiiiietions existed. Ile took the earliest opportunity of ii-icing it, and found that every Sunday some 10 or 12 thousand people congregated there, and no man could venture int ) the lane without having his pocket picked or SO:Ild insult offered to him. !le had already comtnittod three men to Newgate for stealing watches there, and Lad placed hitnselt i s com munication with Sir R &Lytle, to see whether steps could not be taken to put au end to, or at least to pal liate, this evil. The house w s not aware probably that Petticoat-lane teal peculiarly situated. (Great laughter.) Petticoat-lane was a very mall street ; but one half of the street was in Middlesex--(renewed laughter)—aod the other half in London. He could assure the house that he did not %vet t ) say anything to cau inlaughter. (Eleer.) Unless the le lice on both sides of the street were agreed as to the plate to be pursued, those who were interfered a ith on one side escaped Ly going over to the other side. He had no to Lb to interfere with anything which added to the comforts of the working classes, but he thought that if something were dons to place matters oa a different footing it would be a great advati tAge to tee people of that locality. Be had beard many of those who It, pt alisdeclare that they would be very glad if there were some mincemeat 4 hictt would prevent in a manual. in which they them'froin keeping Sunday did - not wish to keep it. A short time ago there Mama great uproar with regard to a bill which was brought in by Leri Ebury ; and he had heard on good authority that many persons in this district paid men ss. each to go to Hyde-park on Sunday to assist in the agitation against that bill. Sir R chard Meyer) lead told him that . s •matte r. The law did not see his way to a ssist him in this a law with regard teSunday trading war, as they all knew, in a peculiar state, An action was brought the other day against a man who opened a photographic institu tion on Sunday. He was a tailor during the whole of the week, and a photographer on Sunday. (Laughter.) Numbers id shopkeepers defied tine autauritioe. A large mass of cigar seller.. had their chops open all day long. Some t f them were fined Sc., but as they made more than ss. profit, the evil continued. Petticoat-lane was by no means the only hush y in which a sort of fair was held on Suolay. Thera wore Fi oiler scenes in the New-cut, Lambeth ; near the S mers-towu ; in Monmouth-- street:St. and in Riad fr-highway. In all those lecilities there was a complete fair on Sunday, com- Mending about 11 o'clock and tsralinating about two. IL, had thought it right to meeti this matter, because it was an atiomination which was causing great injury to the working classes, and which in his opioion the legisla ture ought to endeavour to suppress.
