Our title, "The People's Journal" (and we use the word "peo ple " in its widest sense), should be our only prospectus, did we not know how often titles are valued by those who use them, as the angler uses the painted fish—merely to catch. Let us, then, show how we propose to make our publication a complete practical development of all that is implied in its name. We propose to deal. in an earnest and business-like manner with the claims of Industry. One of the profoundest thinkers of the present day has announced, as with a prophetic voice, "All human interests, com bined h.nman endeavours, and social growths, in this world, have at certain stages of their development required organising, and work, the grandest of human interests, does now require it." But how is this to be attempted ? The same lips have told us :—" The organisation of labour must be taken out of the hands of absurd, windy persons, and put into the hands of wise, laborious, mo dest, and valiant men ; to begin with it straightway ; to proceed with it and succeed in it more and more; if Europe—at any rate if England—is to continue habitable much longer." Taking this lesson deeply to heart, may we not all do something? The Peeples Journal will at least do this, open freely its pag es to those who, in the spirit of Thomas Carlyle, will seekto aid in the solution lur of the mightiest of' all problems —llO w shall we emancipate a h ? We also propose to make the People's Journal a zealo b us, it may be—an efficient helpmate to the working man, and him full and timely information of what philfailliroyplists othery class, philanthropical societies—whether of his own.or are doing in his behalf; by interesting itself in his home—and in the all-important subjects involved in that word,as —suitable buildings —domestic management—care of health—household education— the garden and the field allotment ; by describing to him the new book that we think he would like to read, or the new play, or new actor, or new exhib ition, that h e would probably like to see ; by giving him, through the engravings, and the accompanying letter letter-press of our P eo p le's Portrait Gallery, an almost personal familiarity with our great and good men and women, especially those of our own time; and, lastly, by endeavouring to promote the true business of his life, namely, the development of all the capacities of our common nature, by a right use of the potent influences given to us for that end. Thus, it is not sufficient for man to know how to support life by industry, and by the assistance of the useful arts ; or, how to geniie hie by the religious, moral, and social laws ; he w ants also, to vivify, to elevate, and to spiritualise life—to make it, in a ward, happy in the truest sense of happiness, by the constant study and enjoyment of science, art, music, poetry, literatu re, with all their varying and endless ramifications. We have spoken of our proposed endeavours in connexion with the " working man," because he most needs sympathy, aid, and above all, just appreciation ; but are his temporal and spiritual interests really different from those of anybody else ? Are we not, or ought we not all to be working men? Can there ba a true People's Journal that is not, at the same time, essentially a journal for all? There remains one important consideration. Those who would assist the masses, must first take care to learn thoroughly their condition. How is this to be done ? We offer, in answer— " The Annals of Industry"—where we propose, first, to allow the disciples of industry to state their own wants and wishes in their own words. Next, we propose to furnish them, in this department, with regular information on all the subjects that most deeply inte rest them in a business point of view ; such as the history and pre sent state of their trades or occupations, including notices of new inventions, and local customs of peculiar interest; law, in its more direct bearings upon the interests of labour ; wages, their rise or fall, and present as contrasted with former rates ; employment, whether deficient or ample, healthy or unhealthy, its hours of daily labour, and the movements making to lessen their number—move ments that will obtain the zealous co-operation of " The Peoples Journal ;" employers distinguished for their attention to the co con m- forts, and feelings, and interests o f their workpeople ; sanatory dition of towns and dwellings ; the arts and sciences, as applicable to trade and manufacture —experiments in social progress, &c. The annals are open alike to employer and employed, and are written in a spirit of calmness and perfect impartiality towards both, from ori ginal materials, supplied, on the part of the employed, by trades' secretaries and others in all parts ef the country. s Illastrations.—lt is only necessary to say that quality rather than quantity—permanent rather than temporary interest—will here be studied : and that whilst the subjects will be all systematically chosen, there will be attached to each such information upon its origin as may be necessary to enable readers to judge for themselves of its value. Prices.—Weekly' numbers, I each ; Monthly parts, 7d. each (swhen five numbers) ; Half-yearly volumes, 45. 6d. each. 'Although issued in weekly numbers, there is no weekly repetition cf large title-heads : consequently the internal aspect of the volume Is precisely that of a perfect book. Miss Martineau's " Survey from the Mountain," and the Engrav ings from the picture exhibitions, are continued in Part 6 for July, price 7d., in which are also completed William nowitt's " Letters on Labour " and Mary Ilowitt's " P i e ture-bask without Pictures," from the Danish of Andersen.

The first Part, to be published on July 1, will contain THE LETTERS OF HORACE WALPOLE, EARL OF ORFORD, his With Portraits of Sir Robert Walpole and Catherine Shorter, first wife, and Dorothy, Viscountes s Town To combine cheapness with excellence of production is an object so generally professed, that the publisher of the Serie s now Proposed to be issued feels that in setting it fort h he must in justice indicate eleo.an the means he possesses for its performance. "e ' b l elie le v n e i s ent ce s that give and clearness of type are among the essentia n c o e m d eb fo y r t s , m c al o n i N t • e y u p i e e n a c n e d , r books o‘,d d value, pa e and s a h i a n t e d t the at s a a gr eat i coeb oft and perhaps safety to the eyesight. He therefore proposes to issue a Series of Works which may be justly ranked among the best Eng lish Classics, in a size and form that will entitle them to a place in the most luxurious library, and at a price that will place them within income. Such reach of person s of modera t e Such a series must be peculiarly desirable to the numerous reading societies now establ.shed in the country; they want books not merely for occasional reference, but for constant perusal. To them cheapness obtained by Increasing the difficulties of reading, by microscopic types, and crammed pages, air . ords no adequate advantage. The publisher of the proposed . series is therefore the first to open to book clubs the advantages which . cheap editions have given to other classes of pur chas s, by preserving all the features of publication which their expe rience has proved to be necessary, and at the same time enabling them to economise their expenditure. This collection will include HISTORY, BIOGRAPHY, VOYAGES AND TRAVELS, THE LETTERS OF EMINENT MEN, and, among others, the unrivalled CORRESPONDENCE of HORACE WALPOLE, illustrated with beautiful Engravings by the most eminent artists. The following works, which are the exclusive property of tae pub lisher, will appear early in the series : WALPOLE'S LETTERS, in 6 monthly volumes, or 12 parts. HON. C. A.

SECOND EDITION. by which the editors of journals are permitted to insert whatever concerns the internal policy of the Government without submitting the articles to pre vious examination. Articles relating to foreign politics are subject to the censorship as heretofore. The second Chamber of the States of Baden have resolved to enter into the consideration of a project of law for suppressing all gambling-houses and lotte ries within the Duchy. Madrid papers of the 20th have arrived. A Prussian officer in the Foreign Legion has been arrested at Malaga, as the murderer of Colonel Tao- BADO. In consequence of disclosures which he has made since his arrest, M. EssENTERo, the agent of the smugglers of Malaga has been arrested. Several other persons are compromised by these confessions. It was reported in Madrid that a very extensive joint-stock company has been formed for renting from the State, for twenty-five years, the Philippine Islands, Annobon and Fernando Po; paying for the first, a rent equal to double their present returns to the Government, and engaging to form manufac turing and commercial establishments in the others. The Prince DE AINVILLE was expected to arrive at Barcelona on the 24th. MADRID BOLSA, JUNE 20.—The Three per Cents. were done at 331 for cash ; the Five per Cents. at 201 for paper; the Debt without Interest at GA- for cash; the shares of the Bank of San Fernando at 280; and those of Isabel at 98. We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. A correspondent of one of these journals gives the following account of the conduct of the new POPE, while a Nuncio at Naples, during the pre valence of the cholera. " In 1836 I was at Naples, where I had the honour of being personally acquainted with the present Pope, who was re siding there as Nuncio. He left in that city souvenirs which can never be effaced, particularly from the hearts of the poor. At the time of the cholera, he sold his carriages, his furni ture, and his plate, and distributed the proceeds amongst the unfortunate persons attacked by that disease. During the whole of the time that it lasted he never ceased to give to the sick the consolations of religion, and also aid from his purse. He was always on foot in the visits which he paid to them, and wren observations were made to him on this point, he replied—' When the poor of Jesus Christ are dying in the streets, his ministers ought not to go through them in a carriage.' " Accounts to the 20th have been received from Algiers. In consequence of the massacre of the wounded French in the province of Constantine, by the Arabs, several French colonists have become so alarmed that they have deemed it prudent to retire to Bona. A band of Kabyles on the 12th suddenly attacked a detachment of the garrison of Bugia which had sallied forth to cut hay in the neighbour ing plains. The mowers were compelled to fall back on the troops. The Journal du Havre devotes a large space to a letter from the master of a French trading vessel, the Ville de Caudebec, giving an account of his having been run against by the Highlander, of Liverpool, in March last, and materially injured without any offer of assistance being made afterwards by the master of the English vessel, of whom he speaks in the most contemptuous manner. It having become known in Paris on Thursday that the PEEL Administration was really near to its close, the Bourse was much agitated. Stocks and shares, the latter especially, declined. The Three per Cents. closed on the Paris Bourse on Thurs day at 82f. 85c. ; the Five per Cents., 120 f. 35c. ; the Orleans Railroad Shares, 1,242 f. 50c. ; Rouen, 1,005 f. ; Havre, 725 f.; Great Northern, 716 f. 25c.; Avignon, 870 f. ; Vier• znn, 622 f. 50c. ; Bordeaux, 580 f. ; Boulogne, 465 f. ; Basle, 217 f. 50c. ; Dieppe, 405 f. ; Paris and Strasburg, 487 f. 50c.; Tours and Nantes, 507 f. 50c. ; Paris and Lyons, 530 f. ; Spanish Three per Cents., 37 3 / 4 .

The Right Hon. Baronet remained during the whole afternoon at his residence in Whitehall gardens. This day, at twelve o'clock, Sir Robert Peel left his residence in Whitehall-gardens, for Osborne House, Isle of Wight, to have an audience of her Majesty. Sir Robert was accompanied from town by one of his sons. Sir Robert proceeded to the terminus of the South-Western Railway, and left by the half-past twelve o'clock train. EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.) ,Sittings at Nisi Priu•, before the LORD CHIEF BARON and Middlesex Special Juries.) HERBERT V. OGLEY. The plaintiff in this case is the landlord of the King's Arms, Palace-yard, and the defendant a farmer, who came to town a short time since, and stopped at his house, when the debt was incurred for which the present action was brought. The action was undefended. ANDREWS V. EATON. This was an action li;ing out of a disputed right of pas sage between two houses. After it was partly gone into, i was agreed that it should be referred to arbitration. LEVY O. WRIGMT. This was a cause arising out of a bill of exchange, and was undefended. The above three cases, the only ones in the list, having been disposed of, the Court rose at a quarter past eleven. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.) Lord LANGDALE sat to-day at ten o'clock, and proceeded to hear short causes, none of which were of any public in terest. BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner GOULBURN.) POOLE V. ROBINSON. The plaintiff in this case applied to the Learned Com missioner, under the following novel circumstances :—He stated that in November last he obtained an order against the defendant to pay the debt by monthly instalments, and he had paid some to his (plaintiff's) attorney, who had run away, and defendant refused to pay any more, unless under the order of the Court. The Learned COM3IISSIONER said he did not see how he could make another order, if the plaintiff had allowed the time to expire over which the order had ran. The proper course would be to take a summons out against the attorney, and asked whether he was an attorney of this Court, for he felt very much inclined to grant a rule against him, and take the steps necessary to have his name struck off the roll. The applicant said he had heard that the attorney had gone away to Canada. The Learned COMMISSIONER. then said he could not make another order; the defendant had complied with the former one to the full extent during the time it had been demanded by the attorney, who was the authorised agent of the ap plicant. The applicant said the defendant did not object to pay the balance, but would pay no one now except under the order of the Court. The Learned COMMISSIONER said, that although he could not grant the order, the plaintiff might have another sum mons to show cause why he did not pay; but if he had paid there was little doubt in the matter. The summons was taken out, the plaintiff observing that he bad trusted his attorney entirely in the case, and he had to depend on defendant himself as to what he had paid. IN RE PRITCHETT AND ORRIDGE. To-day was appointed for the audit of the accounts of these bankrupts, who had carried on business as glove manufactu rers, at Charlbury, near Oxford. The Learned COMMISSIONER, on examining the accounts, said the case was one in which the bankrupts deserved the highest commendation ; it was one of those cases in which the law contemplated the fullest protection. The bankrupts had carried on extensive business, but the accounts were made up with the greatest accuracy, and all their debts had been collected,so that there would be a dividend of nearly 20s. in the pound to the creditors. During the three years previously to the fiat, and whilst they were struggling against their ill for tune, the sums drawn out for themselves were only 1001. a year each, but their losses were double• that amount. His Honour regretted the death of Mr. Orridge, and was sorry he could not allow a charge of eight guineas to Mr. Pritchett, for making up the accounts which Mr. Orridge had kept, and which no accountant could have so well arranged; but, as the assignees approved it, he would, if an affidavit was made to the special facts, so that this should not be a prece dent,-allow the sum as an increase of charge. The prisoner, in his defence, said that the Mendicity officers had a " bad feeling" towards him. What they had said was all perjury and lies. Mr. INIAI.TBY asked if the prisoner was known? Horsford said he was the most desperate of the whole gang of London beggars; he was even a terror to his own fraternity. Since January, 1840, he bad been committed from the different metropolitan police-courts fourteen times, and had undergone twenty-two months'imprisonmeht and hard labour. Mr. MALTBY again imposed the severest punishment the law allows, viz., three months' imprisonment. The prisoner, as he left the Court, shook his fist menacingly at the Society's constables, exclaiming—" I am determined, if I wait ever so long, to put a knife into you, although I know I shall hang at the Old Bailey for it." MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was dull. Sales, 4,000 bales. Shares have been quiet also. The features in the Bank of England return for last week are these:— Notes issued now £29,005,160 Last Increase Bullion now Last 401,765 15,688,579 15,339,726 Incsease Public deposits, increase ....... Other deposits, decrease Seven day and other bills, decrease Other securities, decrease 137,495 The immense amount of bullion held, and the power which that gives to augment the note is ales, is a very decided proof of the sway which the Bank of England possesses, under the last new Act, over the currency of the United Kingdom. There are advices from Sydney to-day to the 12th March, but we do not believe that any letters have vet been deli vered, nor have any papers come to hand. The dates are later than those previously received, and much anxiety was shown in commercial circles to learn if any news of import ance had been received from New Zealand later in point of date than that previously obtained from this colony. At present we have not had our letters delivered to us. Great is the exultation at the Corn and Tariff Bills having become the law of the land. Differences of opinion may exist as to the foreign policy of the new Ministry, but as to home matters, not a shadow of fear exists.

HOUSE OF LORDS. Room A. CP AND oltronn. IMPORTANT DECISION. Their Lordships met, pursuant to adjournment, at half past eleven o'clock this morning, Lord Mornington in the chair. _ _ Thev immediately gave their decision that the preamble of the Bill was not proved. Mr. ()LARK, on the part of the promoters, suggested that the line from Hitchin to Cambridge might be passed. The Committee cleared the room, in order to consider this suggestion, and on our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN announced that the Committee had de termined to pass the 13 miles of the line from Hitchin to Royston, which they thought would give accommodation to a populous manufacturing and agricultural district, and would be something to start from in making a more complete communication through the country accommodated. Their Lordships then rose finally, it being half-past twelve o'clock. This was the only Committee sitting in the Lords to-day. HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP 11. The Select Committee appointed consider the merits of the Bills comprised in this group re-assembled at the usual hour this morning; Lord Morpeth iu the chair. TAW VALE EXTENSION. Mr. TALBOT commenced the business of the day by ad dressing the. Committee on behalf of the opponents of the Bill. The tenor of his speech may be stated in two or three words. If the Committee, he said, threw out the pre sent scheme, it would give time to the Great Western Company to mature a large and more comprehensive scheme, and one which would afford double the amount of accommodation to this district to that of the Taw Vale line. The " larger and more compre hensive scheme," it would appear, will be equal in extent to the existing Great Western line, and will consist of the revival of an extended North Devon Railway. The " larger and more comprehensive scheme " is proposed to be commenced at Taunton, on the Bristol and Exeter line, to proceed thense to Barnstaple, and to run from Barn staple by a circuitous route to Crediton. Half way between Barnstaple and, Crediton an extension will strike off, and proceed direct through Oakhampton, Dartmoor, and Tavistock to Plymouth, there joining the lines running through Corn wall. This scheme is supported by the principal landowners and traders of the district, including Earl Fortescue, and the Learned Counsel contended that, as the proposed Vale line, as compared with " the larger and more comprehensive North Devon scheme," would only save a distance of eight miles between Crediton and Barnstaple, it would neither be prudent nor conducive to the public interest to annihilate the Great North Devon by prematurely sanction ing the trifling Taw Vale line—the one the substance, the other only the shadow cf a railway. Mr. COCKBURN was about to address the Committee in reply, but he was interrupted by The CHAIRMAN, who said he believed there would be no necessity for putting Mr. Cockburn to the trouble of making a long address, the Committee being unanimously of opinion that the preamble to the Bill for making the Taw Vale line had been proved. He accom panied that announcement with the remark that the Com mittee had arrived at that conclusion upon the merits of the scheme as a local and independent line, and without meaning to express any opinion adverse to the North Devon project. Mr. TALBOT said, of course the line would be upon the broad gauge. The CHAIRMAN replied, that he understood it was to be so. Mr. COCKBURN said it would depend upon circumstances whether the line would be upon the broad or narrow gauge. It \ the traffic'continued hereafter to go by the Bristol and Exeter, it would be made upon the narrow, but if the narrow gauge line by way of Yeovil were sanctioned by the Lords, and the traffic took that direction, then the line would be upon the narrow gauge. It was ultimately arranged to leave the matter to be settled by the Board of Trade. The clauses were then agreed to, and the labours of the Committee closed. Obtnins 511 AT. LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1846. From the consideration of the fate and destinies of single measures, the public mind is now specu lating as to the fate and destinies of the aggregate Ministry. Whether the Government is to be sub mitted to the guidance of the protectionist party, under the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, or of the Whigs, under Lord JOHN RUSSELL, or is to lie continued, under the renovated auspices of Sir ROBERT PEEL, whether the present Parliament be dissolved, or the forces of Sir RonEuT coalesce, with those of Lord JOHN, according to the insinuated recommendation of the Hon. Member for Stockport, form at the pre sent moment the matter of serious consideration to the general community. However much these im portant problems may be involved in a mysterious uncertainty, and however conflicting and confident may be the rumours afloat respecting the destina tion of the red boxes of official dignity, it would not be difficult to prognosticate the catastrophe of all this legislative confusion. What, indeed, has already transpired would be alone suffi ciently indicative of the future. The Prime Minister, at the very moment of achieving the great reform of Eighteen Hundred and Forty-six, is de feated upon another question by a majority of no less than seventy-three; and this majority is ob tained, moreover, through the acknowledgedly personal antagonism of the agricultural party. The leaders of these bucolic non-contents having advocated, both by avowed opinion and by the significance of their votes, the first reading of the very measure, and having now rejected that measure, through the rigorous acrimony of their pique towards the Premier, clearly indicate the resolute and unappeasable cha racter of their enmity ; and, likewise, the futility of that Minister continuing in office under a double and overwhelming discharge of consistent op position and splenetic hostility. The PEEL Adminis tration has therefore but one alternative if it purpose the continuance :of authority; the Ministers will be compelled either to demand a dissolution of Parlia ment, by that movement releasing themselves from the troublesome presence of the protectionists, or they must contrive a coalition with the representatives at present seated upon the Opposition benches. Other wise their withdrawal from office is unavoidable : they might as lief fold their arms and slumber over the desks in Downing-street during the remaining moiety of the session for all the public business which they can execute. SINBAD the Sailor might as rationally attempt the enjoyment of life when saddled with the " old man of the sea," as the present Ministry might endeavour to discharge the duties incumbent on them, as the guardians of our Constitution, when encumbered by the flagitious and unconscientious hatred of their former associates. Nevertheless, amidst all this confusion and entangle ment of parties, and amidst all these jarring interests of statesmen, one consolatory reflection remains to the people of Great Britain—a reflection which en tirely deprives the pending Parliamentary conflict of anything at all approaching to a painful anxiety ; and that Jeflection is simply that whatever may be the consequences of the struggle, and howevermuch the Cabinet may be altered or pre served, the destinies of England will inevitably be confided either to Sir ROBERT PEEL or Lord JOHN RUSSELL, or by mere possibility to both ! Believing those two celebrated statesmen to be actuated by the noblest principles of patriotism ; believing that their ambition is principally the realisation of happiness to their fellow-countrymen; seeing the reality of this fact avouched in the long, consistent liberality of 1111 so the w uf hei his : ha f e boon o o ton h e one, and demonstrated beyond all misconcep tion in the magnanimous and ever-memorable self-sacrifice of the other—we can bide the issue of circumstances without any feelings at all approximating to those of trepidation, ee ba rtai .til 'n of the ultimate advantage which must result to Osho er r: e ase to the multitude.

The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, in Room No. 24 (Grand Corridor). Present, Sir Robert Fer guson (chairman), the Marquis, of Worcester, Viscount Newry,.Mr. Smiler, and Mr. Fellowes. They resumed the consideration of the competing lines, the WARVIZCIESHIRE AND LONDON (THREE MINES), AND THE BIRMINGHAM AND oxronn JUNCTION. The CIIAIR3IAN informed the parties that the Committee had come to the determination to hear the evidence yester day tendered against the accuracy of the levels in the plans deposited for the Worcester and Weedon line. Mr. Hughes, the engineer, was then called, and being ex amined by Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, gave evidence to the effect that the levels, in the plans deposited were so inac curate that the railway could not be constructed according to those plans. Mr. HILDYARD, for the Warwickshire and London, again raised the objeition that this evidence was inadmissiMe. After a prolonged discussion, during which the Committee manifested considerable impatience—(if we may not say, displeasure)—they yielded to the importunity of counsel, and the room was cleared. On the re-admission of the parties, The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee having given every consideration to the objection, were unanimously of opinion that the petitioners against the Worcester and Weedon line should proceed with their evidence on the en gineering defects of that line. GROUP XLVI. NEWCASTLE AND 11.A.ILLINGTON 31J'NC. TION, AND TYNE DOCK. The Committee met at half-past ten o'clock. It will be remembered that yesterday the Committee consented to pass the preamble of the Bill, upon the promoters of the Bill consenting to prepare clauses in compliance with certain resolutions of the Committee— namely, to form a canal for the exclusive use of the Yarrow Chemical Works, to provide proper drainage to carry away all the deleterious acid from the works, and also to secure them from the expenses of any damage or law-suit which might arise. The promoters required time to consider the matter, and the Committee adjourned until this day. At the meeting of the Committee to-day, the counsel for the promoters intimated that they could not consent to in troduce clauses to the effect required by the Committee. The room after some discussion was then cleared. On our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN said—The Committee have consWered this matter, and it appears to them that these difficulties are rather technical than otherwise, and there also seems to be only two courses before the Committee —either to negative the clauses of the Bill, or to inform the parties promoting the Bill, that, as they decline to prepare specific clauses in accordance with the resolutions agreed to by the Committee, the Committee decline proceeding with the clauses of the Bill, and will therefore make a special report to the House. The latter course is the course the Committee will adopt. The Counsel for the promoters intimated that his clients had determined against compliance on these points, and would stand or fall by that determination. After some further discussion the room was cleared while the special report was prepared, and the Committee then separated. SUGAR DUTIES. The rumours which have circulated during the day with respected to Lord John Russell's intentions respecting the sugar duties, have been numerous and varied. A report which gained some credence in the outports a few weeks ago, has been revived in London, to the effect that three rates of duty will be adopted :—One on colonial sugar, ono on foreign freo• labour, and a third on foreign slave-labour. The rates named have been 10s., 155., and 20s. per cwt. respec tively. Now, it requires no particular knowledge of Lord John Russell's intention with respect to the sugar duties, to know that their cannot be a word of truth in this rumour. If a distinction be kept up at all on slave-labour sugar, it can only be on the ground of excluding it from con sumption, but the moment the rate is reduced for the purpose of admitting it to consumption, and with a view to increase the revenue, it is impossible any longer to defend a different rate. Lord John Russell's principle distinctly is, that free and slave-labour sugar should be admitted on the same terms. In the meantime the market for British Plantation is somewhat duller, from the belief that foreign sugar will be more freely admitted. The second sale of Chinese sugar took place yesterday, but the prices obtained were scarcely so good. We regret to find that the deliveries of sugar for consumption in the ports of London, Liverpool, Bristol, Hull, and the Clyde, show a falling off compared with the same period last year. The following is the comparison to the 20th of June in each year : 1845. 1846. Cwt. Cwt. East India ... 590,061 West India 958,125 • 716,510 Mauritius Free Labour, &c. Total 1,987,022 1,935,990 Molasses 237,656 There are several cargoes of foreign sugars reported in the Channel ; but in the present state of uncertainty no transac tions, except for immediate consumption by the refiners in bond, take place.—Chronicle. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JUNE 26.—The sup plies are again small. To-day there was a retail demand for the best samples of fresh wheat for immediate consumption at last week's prices; for other descriptions scarcely any in quiry. Beans are held firmly for more money. Oats and shelling each the turn lower. Malt again sold better. THE PASSING OF THE CORN BILL.—The news of the passing of this important measure arrived in Leeds yester day morning, at about ten o'clock, by the electric tele graph. Though there was no public demonstration on the receipt of the glad tidings, we believe we may with safety say, that individual rejoicing and congratulation have seldom to a greater extent been manifested. By nearly all parties the measure is hailed as a boon. It was the topic of conversation for t 1 day. By the free-traders it was re ceived with a strong degree of gratitude, like an old friend after a very narrow escape. Rumours are afloat of general illuminations on an early day in London, Manchester, Li verpool, Birmingham, Sheffield, Rochdale, &c , on a scale of great magnificence; and we believe, from the spirit already manifested, that Leeds and other towns in the West Rising will be prepared to show their appreciation of this important commercial measure, either in the same or some other 1 public manner. Huddersfield, it is said, has determined upon an illumination. In Leeds, as soon as the intel ligence arrived, a salute of 21 guns was fired at the establishment of Messrs Kitson, Thomson, and Hewitson, engineers, Hunset-lane, and all the men immediately turned out, and gave three hearty cheers in expression of their joy. Cannon were also fired at several other establishments ; and at two o'clock the bells of the parish church struck up a I merry peal, which was continued at intervals during the rest of the day. Messrs. Taylor, Wordsworth, and Co.. machine makers, Holbeck, had a large loaf, an indication of the poor man's loaf and a flag, with the inscription, "Free-Araederlsaof Holbeck," exhibited on the top of their works. Th li also a large quantity of cannon firing during the day, and all their workmen are, we are informed, to haveadin e ga ne a rto i; to day, at two o'clock, previous t o which cannon will be fired.—Leeds Mercury.

" 'THE ARMY. 16th LANCERS.—This regiment was at Cawnpore on the 23d April, being en route to Calcutta, where they were to embark for England, after having taken part in the late war with the Sikhs. 31st FOOT.—The main body of this regiment arrived at Cawnpore on the 2d of May, from the Punjaub, on their way to Calcutta, where they will embark for England. The sergeant-major died on his arrival at Cawnpore, from the ef fect of the wounds he received in the late battles, and was buried with military honours. The 61st, stationed at Cawn pore, assisted in doing honour to his interment. 61st FOOT.—lntelligence has been received of the death of Captain C. F. H. Mayne, who died at Cawnpore, at the latter end of April. He had been for a long time in a de clining state of health. The men of the 61st are in the en joyment of excellent health, the average sick in hospital not being greater than when at home. ROYAL ARTILLERY.—DEATH OF COLONEL H. TRE LAWNY, GOVERNOR OF ST. HELENA.—lntelligence reached Wooleich, on Thursday, of the death of Colonel H. Tre lawny, R.A., Governor of the island of St. Helena, who ex pired on the 3d of May, after an illness of only a few days' duration. His remains have been interred with military honours, and the inhabitants of the island speak of his death in terms of the most affectionate regret: The deceased officer entered the Royal Artillery, as Second Lieutenant, on the 281 hof April, 179 g. He served with the forces in Holland in 1799, and was in the Peninsula and. the south of France from November, 1813, to the end of the war in 1814, inclu ding the passage of the Adour. He was a member of the celebrated Cornish family of that name, and has left a large family, most of whon't are, we believe, in England. Yesterday morning the whole of the' Royal Artillery as sembled in the Riding-school to see the sentence of a garri son court- martial on gunner and driver James Jeffrey carried into execution. The prisoner, who has been in the regiment 11 years, and bears but an indifferent character, was tried for disposing of part of his regimental necessaries and sentenced to receive 150 lashes, the whole of which were inflicted. Major Hope's Company was medically examined on Thursday, prior to its embarkation for China to relieve Capt. Greenwood's Company. , RAILWAY RETURNS.

JEWISH FREEMASONS—IMPORTANT DECISION OF THE GRAND LODGE OF ENGLAND.—The Grand Lodge of England has, after a correspondence and remonstrance, conducted by the Earl of Zetland and the Grand Secretary, resolved to withdraw their representative from the Grand Lodge at Berlin, in consequence of the refusal of the Russian Lodges to admit Jews to their meetings, though such Jews have di plomas of the Grand Lodge of England. The representatives of the Grand Lodge of Berlin in this country, is to be in formed that he can no longer be acknowledgede or take his seat in the Grand Lodge of England in his official character_ of representative. FIRE AT THE GEORGE AND BLUE BOAR, HOLBORN. —Last night, between ten and eleven, a fire that at one time threatened very serious consequences broke out in the upper part of the booking-office, attached to the George and Blue Boar, Holborn. The flames commenced, from same unknown cause, in one of the top rooms, and extended from thence through the roof. Several engines of the L ondon Fire Establishment, with the West of England one, and two escapes of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, quickly attended. The flames having obtained such a . strong hold of the building, it was found impossible to sub due the fire without the aid of an engine. The one from Holborn station was therefore instantly set to work, and by carrying the hose up the staircase the firemen were enabled to discharge the water in the right quarter, and in a short period the flames were entirely extinguished. The damage done is, considering the magnitude of the premises, not very considerable. The property, we understand, is fully insured. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—A very alarming and destruc tive fire broke out, shortly before twelve o'clock last night, on the premises of Messrs. Miles and Edwards, upholsterers, of Oxford-street. The rear of the house, in the main street, is flanked by extensive workshops, which run back into Red Lion-yard, a narrow turning, leading out of Vere-street. In the upper story of these workshops the fire broke out. From the inflammable nature of the contents the flames spread with surprising rapidity, and in the course of a few minutes burst through the roof, illumining the whole western dis tricts of the metropolis. The engine belonging to the parish of Marylebone was early on the spot; but owing to the great height of the warehouses, it was utterly ineffectual• in keeping down the fire, and great fears were some time enter tained that the flames would extend to the adjoining pre mises, right and left. On the arrival of the brigade firemen, however, two or three active officers ascended to the roofs of the adjoining houses, and dragged up the hose of their re spective engines, from which a great body of water was poured on that portion of the warehouses where the fire was the strongest. Thus it was happily extinguished in little more than half an hour after the outbreak. Among the spectators at the fire were a great number of the nobility, who were just about taking their departure from LitayLynd.. burst's assembly, in George-street. FIRE AT EDMONTON.—Late on Thursday ofecini f a most destructive fire happened at the homestead of 1• • Board, at Edmonton, within a few yards of the line of the Eastern Counties Railway. It was discovered in a barn, well stocked with agricultural implements and corn ; and ere assistance could arrive to check its progress at so early a stage, the flames extended over the whole building. Th e first object of those drawn to the spot was to rescue tile horses from a range of stabling which adjoined the barn; this effected, similar precautions were adopted for the pre servation of the other portion of the live stock, and the Cattle being secured from danger, vigorous attempts were made to subdue the flames. Owing to the direction of the wind, however, two large clover stacks and one of wheat became ignited, the whole presenting a fearful conflagra tion. Engines from Edmonton, Enfield, and neighbouring parishes were promptly brought to the spot, and a good supply of water being procured from a ditch, they were got into effectual operation. By cutting off the communication persons were put o ff to between the barn and stabling, the latter was preserved, though considerably injured, and the progress of the fire was stopped in that direction. At the other end the vast torrents of water thrown by the engines prevented conti gious buildings being destroyed, and by reicloi',at the fire was repressed, although the wreck of the . t;,:n and stacks kept blazing up throughout the night, ene.. even up to a late hour yesterday afternoon. The less is very hhavy; the pro prietor, however, is understood to be insured. The origin i unknown.
