COND EDITION. gjt LONDON, FRIDAY, JUNE 5, 1846. The House of Lords met to-day for the first time after the Whitsuntide recess. Numerous petitions were presented in favour of and against the repeal of the corn-laws. Lord STANLEY, in presenting several petitions from Wilts and Cornwall against the repeal of the corn-laws, gave notice of his intention to-morrow to move for copies of the addresses that had been received from the Legislative Assemblies of Canada on the subject of the corn-laws. The Earl of DA.Ltrous= then defended himself against the attack that had been made upon him in the House of Commons by Lord George Bentinck with respect to the addresses from Canada, which led to a short but animated debate. Earl FITZWILLIAN gave notice of his intention to morrow to move certain resolutions with respect to Rail way Bills. The Earl of DALHOUSIE then moved the second. read ing of the Customs' Duties (Tariff) Bill. The Noble Earl entered at considerable length into the duties that at present existed, and those which it was proposed to reduce by the present measure. The Duke of RICHXOND opposed the Bill. The Earl of Wicx.Low opposed the Bill, as being prejudicial to the linen trade of Ireland. Earl GREY, although he deprecated continual changes, accepted the present measure as a step in the right direction. Lord ASHBURTON opposed the Bill, and expressed his surprise that the commerce of the country was able to stand up against the continual changes that had been made and proposed of late years. Lord MONTEAGLE supported the second reading of the Bill. The Bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Monday week. The Explosive Substances Bill went through Com mittee, and their Lordships adjourned. Whatever apprehensions were formed as to the pertinacity of opposition with which the Protectionist Lords might endeavour to clog the passage of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S policy, by objections or emenda tions, they must now be fully exonerated from all further suspicion. We believe we have already broached the opinion (and we must be permitted to broach it again), that the behaviour of those amongst our aristocracy who uphold the doctrine of protection to agriculture forms a very agree able antithesis to that which regulated the dis cussion of their colleagues in the Lower House of Parliament. Where one has evidenced an almost interminable glibness of hostility, the other has re stricted itself to the most epigrammatic antagonism. Night after night, week after week, month after month, the debate lagged through the Commons, the arguments (if with such an epithet they could be dignified) drawn out to the most squeamish tenuity, and yet oration following oration with the same undeviating and unflagging perseverance. The progress, however, which these same measures have already made through the Upper House has been sig nalised by a conciseness as remarkable as the preced ing procrastination of the representatives. Pre cipitation and superfluous objections have been equally avoided ; and, casting aside all those extraneous allusions which had elsewhere in terfered with the Parliamentary proceedings, their Lordships have confined themselves within the extremest limits of the question. Both the Corn Importation Bill and the Customs' Duties Bill were immediately allowed to pass the first reading without any attempt whatever at a division, and with scarcely a dissentient voice. For the second reading of the former three nights alone sufficed, while for the second reading of the latter a few hours on the very first night of their meeting after Whit suntide proved sufficient. Such a conscien- cus and sensible subservience to the dictates of prudence may be variously attributed—to the exhaustion of debate upon the subject—to the warn lug impotence of the fierce and almost spasmodic labours of their associates in the Commons—to a truckling spirit in the majority and a sense of hope. lessness in the minority ; but to whichever of these conclusions we may arrive the public will entertain sentiments of enduring thank fulness to the Peers for the reasonabl e mode of opposition they have adopted in the consi hsearjeabt r l e e a t b e e d t tt w hh e ae e t m n i ta t t i t h ne e vro al m vt e a i ss n s t n uh e ee r , consi deration o f th ese momentous alterations. There is i o n n e w other hie h both diffe difference Houses and upon the peculiarity of whi c h difference we are the more inclined to tarry, seein g public character of an eminent justificati on member of th e ar i s t oc racy, and one whose was pronou nced overnight b y the unanimous a p plause of his s and of his compeers. Our '‘'ilu problematic to any one sion cannot 1 the discussion wllich who has glanced through b p e eer extremely cu t e uss pre ceded the second reading of of iaosnt°mthse' EDuties Bill, in the course of which , f cast upon DALIIOUSIE availed himself of the opportunity cf most distinctly repucliatir:q the imputations him in the House 0 . ',.. Commons, immediately ant erior to the Whitsuiltiae vacation, by Lord GEORGE BEN TINCK. Those imputations, which amounted to the voluntary and temporary suppression of official papers from Canada of adisposition inimical to free trade, were proved by the Noble Earl to have been altogether with out f iundation, to have been totally illusory, to have been egregiously fallacious—and he proved this, more over, by a simple comparison of dates and calcu lation of distances. The difference, therefore, which we here perceive between the conduct of the representative protectionist and hereditary protec tionist, and the existence of which we are endeavour ing to illustrate, is simply a predisposition in the former for the detection of some personality by which the character of his antagonist may be placed in an invidious light ; and in the litter, a oueful Dupproniou of All tendencies' to aspersive bitterness, and a cordiality in the acceptance of an explanation. In the p?esent in stance, for example, we behold the Noble Lord the Member for Lynn irritated by the utter powerless ness of his oratory, and showering the acidity of his disappointment _upon the Earl of DALHOUSIE. On the other hand, we perceive the acknowledged leader of the agriculturists in the Upper House volun tarily affording the Noble Earl the earliest opportunity of exculpating himself from the charge, as far as the public were concerned, by asking for the production of the Canadian documents, upon the arri val or non -arrival of which, within a specific interval, the whole of the imputation rested. As a mutual example to each other, the possession of two legislative assemblies would alone be of inestimable advantage to the community ; and as it would be desirable for the Commons to imi tate the rational brevity of the Lords upon any sub sequent discussion, so are we proportionately san guine that the Lords will vie with the majority of the Commons in their final division upon the com mercial policy of the Prime Minister. and states his conviction that such a project, if com pleted, would secure the preference of voyagers to all parts of North America, not only from Britain, but from every quarter of Europe, and would confer incalculable advantages upon Ireland, by introducing capital, and stimulating industry and enterprise. We have only here adverted to its advantages in the peace ful character—the others are not less remarkable, but our space forbids a further reference at present Letters from Constantinople of the 21st ult. state that several regulations favourable to Turkish com merce had been promulgated, and that a new mer chant flag had been inaugurated and saluted with 21 guns. " This change," says the writer, "is not without importance. The other flag, with the crescent and the star, is a religious emblem in hostility to Christians, who are, however, the most capable and active agents of commerce and manufactures. The idea of uniting all the races of the empire, without any exception of creed, under the same flag, is a first step towards the equality so desirable of all subjects in presence of civil law, and a c nnmencement of political rights accorded to Christians." Amongst the more remarkable improvements of recent days, there are scarcely any of so great im por.ance as the increased facilities given to travellers, the comparative speed with which journeys are per formed, intelligence communicated, and time and space practically annihilated by the various disco veries of modern science. The more valuable have been the results of the improvements already effected, the greater the demand on the part of the public for an extension of similar accomodation ; and that public will not rest satisfied with things remaining in statu quo under the old and exploded system when it is made perfectly manifest that great amelioration is still practicable. We now, without hesitation, un dertake a journey, perhaps, for a few days pleasure, at which our forefathers would have shuddered, and would only have been induced to attempt on the most urgent reasons—the most pressing con siderations. Within a short period the en terprise and judgment of an individual have effected a reduction in the time consumed in communication with our Eastern dominions to less than one-third of that formerly required for the same purpose. And all connected with that vast empire, either commercially, or from having friends or re lations therein, will bear testimony to the great benefit thereby conferred on the nation. Had it not been for that improvement we should still be ignorant of the happy termination of hostilities in India, and the minds of thousands of our countrymen would be agitated and disturbed on account of some near and dear friends. The same intelligent and active person is now busily engaged in effecting a similar improve ment in the intercourse with our Australian colonies; and, judging from the success which has hitherto attended his exertions, we feel every confidence that they will now be rewarded with an equally happy result. While so much has been done in an Easterly direction, it is really astonishing that so little has hitherto been attempted for the amelioration of our intercourse with the Western Hemisphere, where we are in possession of vast and important colonies, and with a neighbour, so powerful for good or evil, as America, with mercantile and commercial relations of such magnitude, and with a dark cloud lowering in the political horizon, threatening war and the inter ruption of that peace, so highly prized, so justly valued; but which, we trust, may be preserved by mutual forbearance, and mutual concessions, honour able to all parties. It is little to be wondered at, if the public mind should be impressed with the absolute necessity of immediate steps being taken to effect that amelioration. The KNIGHT OF KERRY, a Gentleman of considerable talent and experience, who formerly re presented his native county in Parliament, and was one of the Lords of the Admiralty, has recently pub lished a letter to the Earl of ELLENBOROUGH, setting forth the great advantages of Valentia Harbour as a packet station, and citing the authorities of many and distinguished persons for that opinion. Indeed, we can scarcely conceive that the question admits of argu ment, and yet it has been stated that the First Lord has pronounced a decided opinion in favour of Cork, giving it the preference over Valentia or Bantry. The Right Hon. Gentleman desires, and we think with justice, that the question should receive that delibera tion and impartial investigation which its importance deserves. -••••• Intelligence from Athens of the 17th ult. states that the Russian Charge d'Affaires, M. PERSIANI, had presented to the Greek Government a note on the subject of the loan, couched in analagous terms to that of Lord ABERDEEN. It was also stated that for the future M. PERSIAN' was to receive his instruc tions from th 9 Russian Ambassador in England, M. BRUNNOW. A correspondent at Hamburgh writes, 28th ult., to the Augsburg Gazette :—" A commissary of police has arrived here from Berlin, to make inquiries as to the author and the truth of the contents of a letter sent, a short time ago, to M. DE CANITZ, informing him that a person of Hamburgh was about to proceed to Berlin with the intention of killing the KING, but refusing to give any particulars." In the month of February AI. RONGE was cited before the Criminal Tribunal at Breslau, for having outraged the principles of the various creeds autho rised in Prussia, in a work published by him at Breslau, under the title of " Nene doch alte Feinde" (" New Enemies and yet Old Ones"). This suit caused much uneasiness to M. RONGE'S friends, but the result has been a complete acquittal. The sentence declares that, " though M. RONGE does speak in most severe terms of the various reli- gious communities legally established in Prussia, still there is not anything that falls under the action of the criminal law. In consequence the tribunal de clares Al. RONGE to be acquitted, and places all the costs at the charge of the State." A number of houses in Breslau were illuminated the same evening to celebrate this decision. By the Pacha steamer intelligence has been re ceived from Lisbon to the 30th ult. At that date the new Ministry had been definitively constituted as follows : President of the Council and Finance Minister. Duke de PALMELLA. Minister of War—Marquis DE SALDANRA. Interior—L. S. M. D'ALBUQUERQUE. Foreign Affairs—Conde DE LAYRADIO. Justice—J. F. DE SOURE. Marine—J. J. LoußEmo. Lisbon had been the scene of most extraor dinary events between the 20th and the 30th of May. On the 20th Almada, Carilhas, and several places on the south side of the Tagus opposite to Lisbon, pronounced. On the 21st, which was a saint's day, troops were paraded in the streets of Lisbon, and the people were prevented crossing the Tagus or promenading in the square of Terceiro do Paco, facing the river. A collision, in which many were wounded and some killed, took place between the troops and the people ; and in the night the guardhouses of the different stations were set fire to. This collision had in a great measure been occasioned by the irritating conduct of the CanaaLs, who rode openly about Lisbon, as if to provoke the people. The Duke of PALMELLA was sent for to form a Ministry ; but the intrigues of the CABRALS, backed as their influence was by that of the KING-CONSORT and the personal wishes of the QUEEN, rendered his efforts for a time abortive. On the night of the 21st the following proclamation, signed by the QUEEN, and countersigned by the Dukes of PALMELLA and TERCEIRA, was issued : There are two points of view in which the question must be regarded before a sound conclusion can be arrived at ; first, in its peaceful character as a packet station, as giving the greatest rapidity to intercourse of every kind; and the second, and not less important one, of a defensive naval station—a preferable point for the embarkation of troops, whether for general or colonial service. And in each of these respects, there are great advantages on the side of Valentia. It would appear almost a self-evident proposition —an axiom in geographical science—that the most favourable position for intercourse with the west should be from the most westerly port within our own territory with which easy intercourse could be established. That principle has long been admitted and acted on, and it is owing to its adoption that Falmouth has been selected, and the Government establishment transferred thereto. If one degree of westering entitled Falmouth to this ad vantage, an additional five and a half degrees west of Falmouth, and two degrees west of Cork, is surely no inconsiderable advantage, and should form an important element in the calculation. In respect to the time consumed in receiving intel ligence, there is little doubt that there would be a saving of at least four or five days. The same class of vessels now employed for transatlantic communi cation would easily effect the passage from America to Valentia in six or seven days ; from thence im portant news might be transmitted to this metro polis, to the seat of Government, by means of the electric telegraph, in an incredibly short space of time ; but the general correspondence of the country might, on the construction of a railway, easily be conveyed, in twenty-four hours, to London, thus enabling letters from America to be delivered in little more than a week, or about half the time now required for the purpose, the great im portance of which must be at once obvious to eNtry man of business in the kingdom ; but, secondly, and if possible more important, is the great addi tional safety to life and property which would be at tained by the selection. Every person in the slightest degree acquainted with shipping affairs must be well aware of the great additional risk incurred by the neighbourhood of the land ; a very large proportion of the casualties, which unfortuately take place, are owing to the dangerous character of our own coast, or to the crowded state of navigation in narrow seas. We have recently had a melancholy instance of the effects of a collision, by which many lives were lost, and much property destroyed. Indeed, one of the best testa of the increased dangers of channel navigation, is to be found in the higher rates de manded by the underwriters, when about to effect an insurance on a vessel. Probably the most dangerous coast in the British domi nions is that lying between Cork harbour and Cape Clear; and there is no place of equal length in which so many wrecks have taken place. By the selection of Cork harbour as the packet station, a vessel starting therefrom would have to work se v ent m i t i e w s ; ou against th e p reva ili ng w i nds and currents, along a lee l\d'h been , in with the the open ncn samean in wind,lesa than m f t r an shor e , o f the most dangerous character, for more than Valent a half -an-h our, without any lee-shore I s ame prevaili ng w i nd which w uld w iatsoever. The up the sail ing ve sse l i n Cork harbour, would b shut e a free w i n d for s it, out there of Valentia ; and in th e worst possible c ase , should be a necessity f or t h e aid of tug, it would, in th ree miles from Valentiaa stleacam e vessel so as to enabl e i t to take its northern or'p south erna course in the free ocean; while no less then sixty miles would be necessa ry f rom Cork to effect they sans() purpose. These are considerations of immense magnitude; and it scarcely requires the imposing array of names and authorities quoted b y the Right Hon. Knight to convince the public mind of its great advantages—of its vast superiority. `y e cannot, however, refrain from bringing forward the testimony of a gentleman to whose sound judgment and commercial skill and experience much weight is try. We allude to M r. justly attached in this coun RAILWAY COMMITTEES PROCLAMATION OF THE QUEEN. "The evils which afflict the Portuguese nation, so worthy of being free and happy, deeply afflict my heart. "The complaints of the people cannot be otherwise than listened to by me, when they are made known to me. " The state of the nation imperiously demands the applica tion of immediate and efficacious remedies with which my Government is about to occupy itself incessantly. " The ordinary session of the Cortes will be immediately closed. " The sanitary laws, and those for the reform of the system of taxation, are going to be abolished by a royal decree, which the Cortes will in due time be made acquainted with. " The eminent public opinion, the best counsellor in re presentative Governments, will serve as a beacon light to my Government, and the freedom of the press is already in force. _ _ (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS. GROUP I. " Portuguese—The establishment of order and respect to the laws is at the present moment the primary necessity, and my greatest desire consists in the cessation of the disastrous effects of the pmblic inquietude. This state is indispensable iu order that the Government may occupy itself with urgency, and, at the same time, with confidence, in whatever be ne cessary for the people really to enjoy the benefit and effects of the constitutional charter. " My actual Ministers are commissioned by me to form the projects of law which may most tend to the furtherance of economy in the public finances, and the satisfying the prin cipal necessities of administration and justice. " The national representation will be convoked the mo ment the tranquillity of the country permits, for only then can this representation be real and competent to transact the public affairs. " Portuguese, confide in me, as I equally confide in the honour of this nation, which, with so much valour and loyalty restored to me my crown, and the liberty of the country, the keeping and preservation of which are objects of my greatest solicitude. " THE QUEEN. " DUKE OF PALMELLA. " DUKE OF TERCEIRA. " Court of Belem, May 21, 1846." A run on the Bank of Lisbon had commenced on he 18th, and had continued to the 20th, when the officials made a representation to the Government, in consequence of which a decree was issued authorising the suspension of cash payments for three months. A similar authorisation was also granted to the Confiance Company. The Commercial Union Com pany, although shut up for two days, had not suspended cash payments, and its credit consequently remained unimpaired. On the 22d the Civil Governor of Lisbon, the Marquis DE FRONTEIRO, was dismissed, and M. POLYCARPIO JOSE MACHADO was appointed in his place. On the same day the liberty of the press and the guaran tees were granted, and Viscount DE BEIRE was ap pointed Governor of Oporto. The appointment of the Duke of TERCEIRA, who had for years been acting in concert with the CABRALS, and had held office under them, gave great umbrage to the people, more especially as it was understood that he prevented the Ministry from appointing any but supporters of the CABRALS to command in the army, and that it was owing to his influence that the QUEEN refused to appoint any Septembrist to the Ministry. The CABRALS, meanwhile, had taken refuge with GONZALES BRAVO, the Spanish Minister, and ultimately they embarked on board the Pacha and landed at Cadiz, where they were received with great distinction by the Spanish authorities. The QUEEN, on the 24th, reluctantly consented to the appointment of Senhor ALBUQUERQUE to the Ministry; he, however, refused to join a Cabinet of which the Duke of TERCEIRA was a member, and the latter was compelled to give way, and resign. On the 24th the Archduke CONSTANTINE of Rus sia arrived, but no attention was paid to him, and he drove about Lisbon in a hackney car riage. On the 25th the Cortes were dissolved, and the new Cortes convoked for the Ist September. On the 26th the new Ministry was definitively formed, and on the 30th the QUEEN was, after much difficulty, induced to sign a decree granting a general amnesty to the Almeida insurgents, and re-establish ing them in their ranks and places. In Lisbon, owing to the judicious and conciliatory measures of the Duke of PA.LMELLA. and his colleagues, tranquillity had been restored ; but in the pro vinces the people still continued in arms, and with the exception of Lisbon, Oporto, Elvas, and the towns in th e Algarve, were in possession of nearly all the p r i nc i pal places. PASSOS MANOEL, who was a Mini s t er i n 1836, had joined the movement. The people are in possession of the towns and forts on the Tagus opp os i te Li sbon, and th 4 country is swarming with guerillas. C0131)BN, who, in his valuable pamphlet, " England, Ireland, and America," states that a decided opinion prevails in the United States in favour of Valentia, and who powerfully recommends the selection of that harbour, and the fornaat4ou of a railway to the point Madrid journals to the 29th have arrived. AN 4 OrcliDg to tllO herald°, should the approOsciling THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 5, 1846, We have received the Paris papers o t WAnesday. We give in another column a full report of the conversation which took place in the Chamber of Peers, on the day preceding, on the subject of the massacre of the French prisoners by ABD-EL.• KADER. This conversation is commented on in all the journals. The Debats and the Epoque repeat the arguments used by M. GUIZOT, which they consider a triumphant answer to the attacks made on the Government. The Presse condemns the Government for relying too implicitly on the representations of Marshal BUGEAUD, and can find no excuse for the refusal to accept the offer of an ex change of prisoners made by ABD-BL-KADER. The Constitutionnel condemns M. GUIZOT for seek ing to make a scape-goat of Marshal BUGEAUD, in order to shift the responsibility from the shoulders of the Ministers. To this extent the National goes with the Constitutionnel, but in blaming the Govern ment it also censures severely the conduct of Mar shal BUGEAUD. "If the Cabinet," says the Nution,/, "is the complaisant instrument of Marshal BUGEAUD, it must bear the consequence of his acts." The National regards the excuse that is brought forward by the Ministry, when it says that it would have been unreasonable to impose a different line of con duct upon the Marshal, as perfectly ridiculous. "Of what use," it asks, are a central Government, an executive power, and legislative chambers, if the Government is to have no other guide for its con duct than the will of one of its agents ?" This is excellent reasoning, and when next the writer in the National feels inclined to condemn the Government for dismissing an officer (in Oceanie, for instance) for disobedience of orders, it would be well that he should recollect his own questicra—" Of what use are a central Government, an executive power, and legislative chambers, if the Government is to have no other guide for its conduct than the will of one of its own agents ?" " Whilst M. DE LAGRENEE is detained at Marseilles by the quarantine regulations," says the Presse," CALLER; Secretary-Interpreter of the Embassy, ar rived yesterday in Paris, having been prudent enough to come by the way of England. He is the bearer cf diplomatic papers of importance." Surely this will open the eyes of the French Go vernment to the absurdity of the quarantine regulations. The Constitutionnel says—" Questions are about to be put in the Chamber of Deputies to the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and the Marine on the sub ject of the political and commercial relations between France and the two Republics of St. Domingo. Since 1842, M. GUIZOT has eluded, by deceptive promises, the reiterated applica tions for redress from the 37,000 creditors, who have claims founded on their holding shares in the Haytian Loans, or for indemnities, They cannot even obtain their interest, although reduced to 3 per cent., and this credit has been acknowledged by several treaties previous to the formation of the Dominican State, in 1844, to amount to more than 63,000,000 f." Both Chambers sat on Wednesday. In the Peers the Bordeaux and Cette Railway Bill was under discussion ; and in the Deputies the budget of the Departments of Commerce and Agriculture. Neither of the discussions had concluded when the post left. PARIS BOURSE, JUNE 3.—The rise in the English market has had a reactionary effect here, and both Threes and Fives - have improved, the former closing at 84f. 25c., and the latter at 119 f. 85c. for the end of the month. The market closed as follows :—Five per Cents., for cash, 119 f. 60c., for account, 119 f. 85c. ; Three per Cents., for cash, 84f. 25c., for account, 84f, 25c.; Bank of France Shares, 3,470 f.; Neapolitan, 102; Spanish Threes, 38%; Spanish Fives and New Loan not quoted.

The Cotton Market at Liverp oo l, yesterday, was steady; the sales comprising 7,000 bales, including :3,000 American MADRID BOLSA, MAY 29.—Three per f..:3 It& at on speculation, and 500 for export. American samples were 33/. rather dearer, but other sorts were without alteration. A statistical detail, made public this morning, connected with the rapid advance of the plate and other glass trades, attracts much attention here, showing clearly, if any other demon stration of the fact were required, that the removal of re strictions, and lowering of duties, is of incalculable advantage, not only to manufacturers, but to consumers. It appears that, in the year 1827, when the price of plate glass, made in this country, was 12s. per foot, the weekly sales, by the whole trade, were 5,000 feet. In the following year, the price was reduced to Bs. and 9s. per foot, and the weekly sales were 7,000 feet. The year before last plate glass (some of the Excise restrictions being removed) sold for Gs. and 7s. per foot, and the weekly sales rose up to 23,000 feet. In the present year the price is ss. to Cs. per foot, and the weekly sales now are from 40,000 to 45,000 feet. This is exclusive of foreign glass. The compiler of these interesting details says ; "Looking at the extraordinary increase that has taken place, notwithstanding the severity of Excise restrictions, - and seeing that the demand now progresses more rapidly than ever, even at si. or Cs. per foot, if the prices were reduced to 4s. or 3s. 6d. per foot ( which, free as the trade now is from Excise interference, would afford ample profit), what must then be the demand !!!" By a report which appears in another column of The Sun, it will be seen that the Mexican Bondholders, at a meeting held yesterday afternoon, agreed to the new terms offered by the republic. In this, no doubt, they did wisely, as, with the present difficulties encountered by the Government, arising from the war with the United States, had a contrary course been adopted, it is very probable that a handle would have been made of the circumstance to postpone for an indefinite period the payment of any dividends to the Bondholders. The Stock Market is very firm again, this being the last transfer day on the securities, which will shortly pay a dividend. The reverse at present is the case as respects the English market in periods of mistrust, when parties often sell out in apprehension of some untoward event prior to the re-opening. Consols have been 96 3 / i to 97 for present transfer, and 97% 1 4 for account. The premium on Exchequer-bills has been 225. and 17s. again, being very firm. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realised 97% lA, and the Three per Cents. 95% 3 4. The Foreign Bonds are well supported. Mexican have im proved to 30 1 / $ v i for the Actives, and to 16% ILA for the Deferred. Equador Stock has realised 3%. Portuguese Bonds have been 50 to 52 for the Four per Cents., a fall that is quite natural, considering the tenor of the news received from Lisbon. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per cents. have receded to 60 1 / 8 and 59z s . Shares have been exceedingly quiet, and are not buoyant in price. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.)

Still, however, owing to the prevailing fine weather, the demand for that article was heavy, and in some instances the quotations had a downward tendency. In Foreign Wheat, free as well as in bond, so little was doing that the currencies were almost no minal. Barley moved off slowly at barely late rates. We had a full average supply of Malt on offer, and which sold at barely previous prices. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour, ruled excessively dull at Monday's quotations. ARRIVALS. English ..

Mr. Sergeant WRANGHANI proceeded this morning with his reply on behalf of the London and York Railway. His first remarks went to prove that it was a very grave obec tion to the Eastern Counties line that it was under the same management as the lines which afforded accommodation to the Midland Counties. He did not, of course, wish to cast any personal reflections on the shoulders of those connected with him in the management of that line. He considered it absolutely necessary that there should be an independent line to London and York. He would not enter into the ge neral question of competition ; their Lordships would be able to form a much better opinion on that subject than he was. The Eastern Counties line proposed to make use of certain pieces of the Midland line, for the purpose of completing the line to York. At present there was the greatest harmony of feeling between the Eastern Counties and the Midland Counties Companies. It might not, how ever, be always so; and when this harmony of . feeling was destroyed, he contended that the character which should ever attend an independent line would be completely de stroyed, and the interests of the public most seriously de ranged. The London and York line would go as near as possible in the direction of the old road, and accommodate the towns and villages which had grown up on the sides of the road; whereas by the opposing lines the inhabitants of these towns and districts would have to migrate to those places through which the Eastern Counties line would pass. His Learned Friend Mr. Austin stated that he had a right and title to the country line between London and Y or k. The Learned Counsel contended that they had not the slightest ground for making this claim; as, by an Act which they obtained in the year 1840, they proposed to abandon that portion of their line between Bishop's Stortford and Cambridge. It had been stated by his Learned Friend, with a great deal of that virtue which was sometimes called effrontery, and even known sometimes by a harsher name, that if the London and York Bill was passed the line would never be made. He (Sergeant Wrangham) considered that such an assertion came with a bad grace from those who were obliged to plead to a writ of mandamus, which was issued against them for not completing their line beyond Col chester, that they had not the means of doing so, and they could not, therefore, complete the work assigned to them in their Act.

' DELIBERATE ATTEMPT AT MURDER AT THAXTED, ESSEX.—The inhabitants of the town of Thaxted were on Wednesday morning alarmed by a most premeditated at tempt at assassination, which, from the circumstances pre ceding the act itself, has only been equalled by those of late perpetrated in the metropolis. About two months age Mr. T. W. Warner, tinworker and ironmonger, of Thaxted, dis charged an apprentice for some misconduct, whose name is George May Smith, under 19 years of age. A few days ago Smith applied for work at a shop in London, and being pressed for a reference as to character, gave the name of his late master, Mr. Warner, who replied to the application in no recommendatory terms, and on Smith calling at the shop again he was told that his former master had been written to, and the answer was so unsatisfactory that he was desired to go about his business. Smith, it appears, was now deter mined on revenge; he came down to Bishop's Stortford on Tuesday, that night broke into his own father's house there, stole a double-barrelled gun, powder-flask, and shot-bag, walked immediately over to Thaxted, a distance of 12 miles, and scaling the wall of Mr. Warner's preirises, coolly waited till he should be up. About eight o'clock Smith saw him com ing out into the working-yard, and being but a few yards asunder, presented the gun and fired ; Providence, however, averted the deadly effect, the right barrel burst, and the assassin's left hand was dreadfully shattered. Mr. Warner received the spent shot on his arm and hand, but not so as to raise the skin, except in a very slight degree. The fellow, although thus self-mutilated, attempted to escape, but po liceman Dunn seeing him going along the street of Thaxted with a bloody hand, concluded something serious must be the matter, and took him into custody. Shortly afterwards the prisoner was brought to the Dunmow police - station, where where his hand was examined by Mr. Grice, surgeon. at first was judged that amputation of the hand it was only must be resorted to, but subsequently it was determin ed t ha t necessary to remove two of the fingers attheof Mr. Salt, Immediately secondjoinl, joint, and this operation Mr. Grice, with the assistance immediately performed.

Keeling and Hunt , at their auction-rooms, Monument-yard, which attracted a large attendance of speculators and dealers,t the same having been exhibited at the Ho r ti cu lt ural Society. The quality upon examination and trial was considered to approach nearer to English growth than any other of foreign importation ; but, there being little dispo sition manifested to purchase them, they were bought in at 505. per ton.

The Lord Chancellor sat at Westminster to-day , a nd after disposing of the unopposed lunatic petitions on the paper, proceeded to hear the further arguments in the part-heard case of WHITWORTH V. GAIIGAIN. bud This case came before his Lordship on WetinesdaY upon an appeal from the decree of the Vice-Chancellor Wr: irate resting ; and although the f ac t s are no t o f a nature much e f resting to the public, the qu es ti o n ra i se d in the case is 011 ‘, 3 _, ( : ) , considerable importance to the l e g a l p ro f ess i o n and the Pee"' at large.

The ag Chancellor Wigram decided that the equitable mortg had the right to enforce his charge in priority, and from a le . decision the present appeal was brought. The plaintiffs ar: eminent bankers at Northampton; and in 1839, Mr. Georg' Cooke, a solicitor of that place, was largely indebted to thee; on his banking accounts. In April of that year he obtained _ a further advance o f upwards of 3,000 L, and gave his P IO niissory note for payment of that amount with interest. 0 also deposited with th e pet i t i oners the title-dee ds o d f closes ofland situated on the m anor o f Kingsthorpe, the title-deeds of certain houses and lands in the parish ofS Sepulchre, in Northampton, accompanied with a memorand.u"„: in which he engaged, if required, to execute any legal mortga.P or other security of the premises and land that the PI 510 : tiffs might hereafter require. In the month of November; 1810, two actions of assumpsit were commenced agaile Cooke, one by a Mr. Mayer, and the other by one of present defendants, a person named Pell. No defence vre made to those acti ons , ju d gment was signed in each of th and subsequently wr it s o f e l eg i t were sued out. Inquield tions were had of the goods, chattels, and lands of Cooke, le?, on the 30th of Decemb er , 1840, Mayer obtained lega l sez l of the lands in Kingstliorpe, a n d P e ll of the lands and hill ° in the parish of St. Sepulchre and the tenants attorneu them. In February, 1841, fiats of bankruptcy were issue against Cooke and Illayer, and the defendant Gaugain Wee a e F tir pointed assignee of the latter. In March of the sam e Lta, the present Bill was filed, charging that the heredite,m„„ ts premises, and securities held by the plaintiff were itiaae tl , t .. to satisfy the amount due to them by virtue of their ect, sta able lien, and praying an account of what was due to tl",`,„ in respect thereof ; and also that they might be declarea have an equitable mortgage on the heriditaments and Pre' miser, and entitled to priority over the elegit and judgment s of Mayer and Pell and that if the proceeds of the sale of their securities should prove insufficient, that they might be admitted to prove for th e d e fi c i ency aga i ns t th e estate Of Cooke, under the fiat of bankruptcy issued against him. In the answer of the defendant Pell, he denied that b e had notice of the plaintiff's equitable lien at tbs time the legal sezi n of th e prem i ses was de l ivere d to bu'' under the elegit, and he insisted that as a purchaser for TaL tr i able consideration witho u t notice, h e was ent i t l e d t o the JR"' benefit at law of that writ.
