Another evidence of public confidence in the Rug arm Administration has just been given by the unani mous re-election of Viscount MORPETH, as the repre sentative for the West Riding of Yorkshire. When the circumstances of the previous nomination of the Noble Lord, during the last winter season, are recollected, it becomes a matter of profound interest and extreme gratification to compare the circumstances of that moment with the circumstances of the presant : the hopefulness of victory with the achievement of victory, the yearning for the prize with the p ossess i on of ~_ the prize. It is in these re-elections of the & AU isterial candidates that we are enabled with out Nl'' wv, . 'y, 0t •: - . of affectation to revert to that glorious , . . '-' 7, , 1 / • volgtion foul the excitenaeut conso. 4 , 4 - „*1 ••''-)11?.:::(,.. - -1. - ;__\> le, ~4 m.,:f C , i - 4 ` iv . . • /4 a , • quent upon the consummation of which we are only now recovering. And it is because we are so earnestly impressed with the conviction that this same revolution will confer an infinitely greater amount of social happiness upon the community than even its sanguine admirers have hitherto anticipated in their most flattering visions of the future, that we are the more prepared to listen again and • again to congratulations upon its completion, and to eulogiums upon its principal leaders. Until the com merce of Great Britain be annihilated, and until its industrious population cease to exist, the praises of COBDEN, and PEEL, and VILLIERS, and BRIGHT, will never become tedious to the popular ear, will never cease to animate the popular enthusiasm. Neverthe less, it would be insanity so far to deliver ourselves up to sentiments of self-gratulation as to conceive that the reformatory labours of legislation are altogether completed, or to forget that we have only breasted a portion of that terrible acclivity. The ex pressions employed on Saturday by the Noble Lord the First Commissioner of Woods and Forests, in appealing to the electors of Yorkshire for their suffrages, were in this particular both elevated and lucid; they were eminently calculated to impress their hearers with an accurate perception of the political position of this empire. By a poetical symbol Lord MORPETH beautifully idealised the condition of the English Legislature, he represented the movement which had already been made towards the modification of the commercial system of this country as the attain ment of a table land upon the side of a mountain— many dangers passed, many obstacles overcome, but above us other dangers and other obstacles to be passed and vanquished in like manner. There are Alps upon Alps to be surmounted ; nevertheless, having accomplished so much already, and having, moreover, accomplished it so decisively, we are not to be discouraged by dangers, however threatening, or obstacles, however enormous. Conscious that the popular \\TILL cannot, by any human machination, be frustrated, when enforced by justice and impelled by a peaceful spirit of determination, we can yield ourselves up to the most sanguine anticipations without any dread of disappointment. For the purpose of confirming his assertion as to the fact that Government could not be expected to remain inactive after the recent proceedings in Parliament, Lord Moaretrn adduced a " proof positive," in the shape of the Sugar Duties—those obnoxious vestiges of monopoly which still blurr the commercial code of this countr3 and which must be utterly erased therefrom before we can enter upon the full enjoyment of the bless ings of free trade. Heartily rejoiced are we to find that a man of such undoubted abilities, of such a wholesome liberality, and of such an un flawed judgment as Lord Viscount MORPETH, has at length beheld this specious but villanous abuse in its true colours, that he has discovered how consistently a man can proclaim himself hostile to the "blood-red flag of the slave trade," and yet " commit himself without reserve to the general and universal principles of free trade." No human being can abhor with a more intense and unextinguishable abhorrence than ourselves the atrocious and damnable system of slavery a system alike opposed to the pleading voice of Nature, and the solemn mandates of Revelation. No human being can yearn more ardently than ourselves, for the burning of the last rag of that " blood-red flag " upon the altar of Freedom; and it is because of the depth of our reverence for the sacred cause of universal liberty that we are (like Lord MORPETH and a thousand others) so desirous of the cessation of the differential duties upon slave-grown and free-grown sugar. To speak plainer, it is because we are indignant that the holy cause of the emancipation of our fellow-beings is thus advanced as a mask for hypocrisy and a plea for avarice. We are indignant at this wanton degra dation of a divine watchword to serve such vile and sordid purposes. As perhaps the most glaring instance of this miserable hypocrisy, we may direct attention to the protest signed by twenty-five acknowledged names, and others, and which protest is presented to day to the Prime Minister, previous to the introduc tion of the Ministerial policy as regards the sugar duties in the House of Commons. Do these "signers of the protest" imagine for a single moment that the chicanery of their protestation is invisible ? Do they flatter themselves that the religious veil is sufficiently dense to screen their real under-motives ? Plainly and honestly we confess ourselves pained by this tragical kind of mock philanthropy; and we would briefly remind those who are so noisy in their anxiety for the maintenance of the differential duties, because they pretend to regard those duties as a discouragement to the slave trade— we would remind those people that Christianity is opposed to the principle of slavery, not to the work. ing of slavery. We would remind them, moreover, that the black slaves in the sugar plantations are more to be envied than the white slaves nearer home, who have to drudge so arduously for their livelihood, and to pay so extortionately for the profit of those whose colonial possessions happen to be devoted to the culti vation of the sugar-cane ! It is not difficult to simu late benevolence when the pocket can be filled by pre tending the principle, or to assume generosity and philanthropy when the public can be plundered by the pretence ! To-night, however, will prove " the beginning of the end" of this grievous injustice. The result of the rece n t tri a l a t Wi nc h es t er , th e immediate and unhesitating acquittal of Lieutenant HAWKEY for the murder of Mr. SETON in the un fortunate duel which took place at Gosport last year, and the applause with which the verdict of the jury was received by a crowded court, does not occasion us the slightest degree of surprise or astonish ment. It fully bears out and confirms the observations we offered on the occasion of the acquittal of Mr. PTM, in the month of March ,ast, for his participation in the fatal transaction. In ;he present trial the accused was unable to obtain the benefit of the testimony of his wife, Mrs. HAWKEY, who was not a competent witness on his behalf, owing to the policy of the law, which provides that husband or wife cannot be evidence for or against each other, except in cases of high treason, or where either is indicted for a personal in jury inflicted on the other; he therefore laboured under the serious disadvantage of being unable to prove clearly to the jury the real cause of the un happy quarrel, and the serious nature of the injury attempted to be inflicted on him. The jury, however, twain interposed themselves between the law and the accused, and pronounced an acquittal, although no reasonable person could for a moment enter tain a doubt that his was the hand by which the death-wound was inflicted, although it was clearly explained to them that they must dismiss from their minds the various points as to the policy of the law and the hardship of the parti cular case, so eloquently and ably expatiated on by the counsel for the prisoner ; that they were bound by their solemn oaths to pronounce a verdict according to the evidence, that was according to so much of what they had heard sworn before them as they believed, and the only questions for their consideration were— `' Did the prisoner at the bar deliberately, by shoot ing at Mr. SETON with a pistol loaded with gun powder andbull w et o , und theinfliet cause of his T d O e N at a h w r o , u T n h d e t y " and ~ was that could not have been influenced in this acquittal by the ingenious point raised by Mr. COCKBURN, that in this case the cause of death was a state of things super vening on the treatment, and not on the original wound, that, in fact, it was the result of the operation which had been performed, and not of the wound itself The Judge had most properly overruled thin 'point : and reserved the benefit, if any, that might result to the accused therfrom, for an appeal to all the Judges, in the event of a conviction. We can, therefore, only ascribe it to the unwillingness of the jury to make a person who had a reasonable ground of offence, where there was nothing unfair in the conduct or management of the duel, a victim to the unwillingness of the Legis lature to grapple with the acknowledged evil, and to subject him to all the pains and penalties of a con iietion for murder, the most severe sanctioned by the law. If it is seriously resolved by our Government that the practice of duelling shall be put a stop to, that the nuisance shall be abated, and that juries shall not be induced to tamper with the solemn oaths they are required to take—a precedent of the; most mischievous description and character—no time should be lost in bringing for ward measures sufficiently stringent for its suppres §l9n• we have already stated: it it , not the THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 20, 1846. bill(/ of any punishment, no matter how great it may be, but the certainty of its infliction, that is found to be efficacious for tlse prevention of crime. In the case of duelling the severity of the punishment sanc tioned by law, in the event of a conviction, has the practical effect of giving a total im punity to the guilty parties. In France, in a similar proceeding, there is a third party before the Court, and although the pri soner may be acquitted of the crime of murder, lie may yet suffer heavily 'in a pecuniary point of view by the amount of damages given against him to the friends and relations of the deceased party, for the loss they have sustained by his death. In a recent case in that country, Mons. BEAUVALLON was con demned to pay a sum of 20,000 francs to the relatives of his opponents, although he was absolved from the criminal consequences of his act. The adoption of such a provision, which would only be a slight extension of the principle of a measure now be fore Parliament, viz., the Death by Accident Com pensation Bill, would be highly useful, and do much to take away from the frequency of such occurrences ; but nothing can give the practice its death-blow but an enactment declaring it to be a specific offence, and providing a severe penalty in every instance, nq matter what may be the result of the hostile mee:ing. Should such a course be adopted, and all the parties to a duel punished on one or two occasions by fine and imprisonment, the public feelings will no longer be outraged by a repetition of an offence so grave in its nature, and by which the laws of GOD and man are equally outraged and violated. Accounts from Lausanne of the 13th instant state that the authorities of the canton De Vaud have interdicted all commercial relations between the in habitants of that canton and those of the canton of Berne, a measure which is considered by many as contrary to the federal compact. Letters from Berlin of the 12th announce the re signation of M. FLOTTIVELL, the Prussian Minister of Finance. A Ministerial crisis in Prussia is ex pected. to the final approbation of the Queen, in which, among other stipulations, the previously questioned right of entry to Canton city is conceded and established under the Emperor's own hand, and the exercise of that right is agreed to be postponed only until the population of Canton shall be more under the control of the local Government, this is to make known, that the island of Chusan will be immediately made over to the Chinese officers appointed to receive it, and her Majesty's forces will be withdrawn from that post with all practicable speed. God Save the Queen, J. F. DAVIS. Given at Victoria, Hong-Kong, this 18th day of May, 1846. By his Excellency, A. R. JOHNSTON. COMMERCIAL RE MA RES.—IMPORTS. (From the Hong-Kong Regis:er of May 4.) American Cotton Goods—There has been a good inquiry for drills during the month at 2.45 dole, to 2.60 dole, for 30 yards, and 3 dole. to 3.40 for 40 yards. Sheetings hare been in less request at 1.90 dole. to 2.50 dole. Betel Igut—Sales to some extent are reported, at a furthe decline in price of 10 to 20 cents. per pecul. The stock is considerable. Camlets are without change. , The only sale we hear of consists of 520 pieces at 19 dole. per pecul. At Shanghai and Amoy prices are much the same as in this quarter. Chintzes—Some hundred pieces have been forced off at 2 dole. to 2 doll. 50 c. per piece, which will leave a very heavy loss to im porters. Cotton—The clearances of Bombay staple have been on a fair scale, though chiefly from second hands. The stock in Canton is gradually decreasing ; but, looking to the large supplies known to be on on the way, we cannot expect any permanent improvement in prices, which may be quoted at 'reels 5.2 to 6.2 per pecul. Bengal continues to be inquired for, and the cargo of the Emily Jane is likely to meet with ready sale at Tales 8.0 to 8.4 per pecul. Tinne velly at Taels 6.5 to 7.9, is in rather better demand, while western, at Taels 5 to 6, is quite neglected. COTTON REPORT. Deliveries.

At Shanghai, recent heavy arrivals of greys have caused quite a stagnation in that description, while whites, the stock of which is comparatively light, have been more sought after. Long Ells—About 3,000 pieces of these goods have been taken at 7 dols. to 7 dols. 50e. for assorted, and 7 dols. 90c. for scarlet ; but the season for their consumption having expired, it is with great diffi culty they can be got rid of. Opium—Since the arrival of the Braganza, prices of Bengal drug have declined to 680 dols. for Patna, and 650 dols. for Benares, with every appearance of giving way further. A fortnight or three weeks ago, good Afalwa was in some request at from 720 dols. per chest of 100 tattles downwards according to shades of quality ; latterly less has been done, though the quotation remains the same. Inferior in various degrees constitutes the bulk of the stocks now here. Putchuck—ln the absence of supplies has advanced to 10 and 11 dols per pecul. Ratans—Have also improved since our last, and may be quoted at 3 dols. 15 c. to 3 dols. 40 c. for Benjermassin, and 2 dels. 20 c. to 3 dots. 15 c. for Straits, at which rates we hear of several hundred peculs of each description having been placed. Rice—The continued favourable weather for the native crops has caused, as we anticipated, a further decline. Saltpetre—Considerable sales are reported at from 7 dots to 7 dots. 40 c. per peen'. The stock is moderate. Shark Fins—About 120 peculs have been placed at 8 dots, for No. 1, and 17 to 20 dols for No. 2, or at a reduction on former rates of 1 dol. to 2 dols. per peen]. SandalivooCl, of all descriptions, continues in good request, and sales of about 2,400 peculs of South Sea wood at 11 dots. 25c.. and several hundred pecuis of Malabar at 10 dots. 50c., to 14 dots., are reported during the month. The stock of the latter description is small. Timor is quoted at 5 dots. 20c. per pecul, but almost nomi nally so, as no transactions of any importance have taken place. Spanish Stripes and Habit Cloths—Several hundred pieces of each description have changed bands at 95c. to 1 dol. 65c. for the former and 1 dol. 05c. to 1 dol. 35c. for the latter. As in the case of Long Ella, the season for the consumption of these goods Is past for the present. - Steel—Nominal at 4 dols. to 4 dols. 20c. for Swedish and 3 dols. to 3 dols. 30c. for English. Tin—No recent transactions are reported, and prices are still no minal at 16 to 18 dols. per pecul for Banca, and 13 to 15 dolt. for Straits. Tin Plates are scarcely so firm, 6 dols. to 6 dols. 30 cents. being now the quotation. EXPORTS. Alum—For such as remains 1 dol. 20 cents to 1 dol. 90 cents is demanded d. e. d. c.

Galangal, at 2 30 to 2 40 Cassia—This article has been in sonic. request for the American market at our former quotation of 10 dolls. 50 cents. per pecul. The stock is nearly exhausted. Sugar—ln consequence of scarcity of tonnage for both England and India, we hear of no transactions in this article. Prices have fallen to Dolls. 5.25 per pecul for No. 1 „ 4.80 a 5 tf If 2 3.85 a 4 1110 3 „ 3.20 4 ~ If at which rates it is supposed considerable contracts will ere long be entered into. Sugar Candy—Has shared in the dullness of Sugar, without how ever undergoing the same depreciation in value. Silk—Nothing has been done since our last. For the GOO bales at market, holders are asking advanced rates, a report having reached Canton that the new crop is not likely to turn out well. From Shanehat shipments to some extent have lately been made, in creasing the export since the Ist July to date to about 15,700 bales. Tea Congou—The business of the month has been limited, but for the 10 to 12 chops settled for, full prices have been paid. The stock is now reduced to 30 chops. The export since our last has been on a large scale, both from this quarter and Shailrahai, consisting chiefly of purchases made some time ago. Other black teas have been quite neglected. The season's - upply of Nankin green teas, with the exception of a few chops of Twatikay, is exhausted, and in Canton made green transactions have been limited to a few hundred chests of young Hyson at taels 17 to 20 per pecul.

The Gazette of the 12th publishes two decrees, one establishing an office, under the direction of M. CAYETAISO CORTES, in which an exact return is to be kept of the wealth of the kingdom ; and the other uniting several of the branches of the public revenue under one board. A brother of the Duke of RIANZARES (MUNOZ) has been appointed Minister to the Republic of Venezuela. The Herald() has published an article ngainst the marriage of the QUEEN with a Prince of Coburg, which it is said has attracted the attention of Mr. BULIVER, who has interfered to prevent such publi .cations for the future. So much was Mr.BuLwER offended by the conduct of the Camarilla on the subject of the marriage question, that having received an invitation to a ball at the palace, he declined it on the plea of illness, suffering severely in one of his legs. Her MAJESTY, however, it appears, was not inclined to dispense with his company, and sent a message that one of the royal carriages would be sent to bring him to the palace. He was thus compelled to exert him self, and after arriving in the royal presence found himself so recovered as to be able to dance with her MAJESTY. 'We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. They are principally occupied by electioneering matters. It would appear that the opposionists of all shades have united against the Ministry, and that ultra-Republicans and Legitimatists will vote for each others' candidates. The Polish Emigrants also appear disposed to take part in the electoral war. The Courrier Francais of Friday states that Russia is about to dispatch a secret mission to Pekin, for the purpose of negotiating a treaty of commerce with China. M. DEMETRIUS WASSIGEN is to be the chief of the mission. " It appears," says the Courrier— " That Russia is desirous to establish at Kiakhta a consider able derot of merchandise from which the Chinese may at all times draw the supplies they want, and she hopes to ob tain from the Celestial Government a treaty of commerce securing to her the free admission through that part of the frontier of all Russian merchandise, and moreover the monopoly of certain articles which the English and Ameri cans were beginning to import. Such, we are informed, is the object of the mission of M. Wassigen, and we may safely assert that the convention about to be entered into will con tain some of those secret articles which Russian diplomacy is so expert in introducing in all the treaties it concludes." It is said that the Prince DE JOINV.U.LE'S squadron will visit Tripoli, Malta, and Naples before its return to Toulon, and that it is probable it may proceed to the Levant should Turkey evince, any intention of attacking Tunis. The Toulonnais states that the Prince was instructed to leave two of his squadron at Tunis. The vintage promises to be the finest since 1811. The strike among the miners at Anzin still con tinued.

The Select Committee appointed for the Classification of Railway Bills according to the resolutions adopted by the House, have further considered the several matters re ferred to them, and agreed to report as follows: Your Committee recommend that the Lynn and Ely Rail way ,(Extension to Spalding) Bill, and the Lynn and Ely Railway (Extension to March) Bill, be referred to Group No. 69. Tour Committee recommend that the Manchester and Lin coln Union Railway, and Chesterfield and Gainsborough Canal Bill, be referred to a distinct Committee, Group No. 71. THE NEW POETICAL ERA.--Mr. Colburn is about to issue another poem, of the success of which, we understand, he is as sanguine as he was of that of " The New Timon." It is entitled " The Modern Orlando." The authorship is in tended to be kept strictly secret. This second poem is said to be more decidedly satirical, and in the Beppo and Don Juan style. Mr. William Glover, of Leeds, has produced a design in cloth for shooting jackets and over -coats, which be had the honour a few days ago of submitting to their Royal High nesses Prince Albert and P r i nce G eorge of Cambridge, who have been pleased to express their admiration of it in the most gratifying terms. the d os Duke theo f psouaf Duke Salisbury, b i o c uf h r ym,o Cleveland,nt d h the MarquisDt h u e k e p o uo f kf oG u o c rfr k adßn i Lord Brougham entertained the Duke of Wellington, Earl he e L Mar quisorod Ellenborougb, the Earl of Lonsdale the Earl of Stradbroke, Viscount Strangford, Lord Stanley, Redesdale, Sir P.

FUNERAL OF THE SOLDIER WHO IT IS ALLEGED DIED FROM THE EFFECTS OF FLOGGING.—The remains of Frederick White, of the 7th Royal Hussars, were interred at Heston churchyard on Friday afternoon. The coffin was pre ceded by the band, who played the "Dead March in Saul," and was followed by several of his late comrades; and in the absence of any of his friends, his horse was led covered with a black pall as the chief mourner. It is said that a clue has been obtained of some of his friends, who have been written to. A NOVEL .

(From the Herald.) We bare just received, by Extraordinary Express, in anti• cipation of the Overland Mail, our files of papers from India and China, of the dates following; —Bombay, May 30; Cal cutta, May 16; Madras, June 9; and China, May 24. The political intelligence is not of much importance. The fort of Kangra had not been surrendered when the last accounts came away, which were of the 14th of May. Sir H. Har dinge was at Simlah on the 16th of May, having returned thither from a visit to the interior. The Governor of Madras, we regret to learn, was confined by illness at Vellore. Cholera was still raging at Rajpoor among the troops of the 22d Regiment. Commercial matters at Bombay were in much the same state as those last received. , At Calcutta the markets were without much alteration. At Madras, sales very trifling. In China, generally speaking, trade was very dull. The Emperor of China had issued a proclamation an nouncing that Chusan was to be immediately evacuated. Mr. Elmslie, who has so long faithfully exercised the office of Secretary to the Superintendent of Trade, was to have the honour of bearing the Imperial assent for the ratification of the Queen of England. (From the Bombay Times of May 30.) In the Government Gazette, of the 30th ult., appeared a notification, signed by the Chief Secretary to Government, intimating that their Highnesses the Jain of Nowanuggur, the Nawab of Joonaghur, and the Thakoor of Bhownuggur had "agreed to extend to their ports on the coast of Kattywar, the rules established by his Highness the Gui cowar, for exempting vessels trading between Bombay and Sinde. forced by stress of weather into any of his Highness's ports in Kattywar, from the payment of the duties heretofore exacted at those ports." It was ex pected that the liberal course thus adopted would have been likewise followed by the Chief of Moozufferabad, but in this the authorities have been disappointed, the ruler in question having declined to acquiesce in the proposed arrangement. Parties, therefore, engaged in trade with Sinde would do well to instruct the commanders of their vessels, should they meet with severe weather, to endeavour to avoid entering the ports of the chief in question, and make for other har bours where they will not render themselves liable to exac tion. The matter is one which should be generally made known ; and our native contemporaries will no doubt oblige us by copying this paragraph for the tenefit of their readers. JULLUNDUR DOAB. We have intelligence from Kangra to the 14th instant, re ceived this morning, from which it appears that the garrison still held out, notwithstanding the attempts of Dewan Deena Nath to induce them to surrender. That officer had reached the camp on the 12th inst., and appeared very confident of ultimate success. One of our friends thinks the garrison may march out when the guns arrive. They had broken down the bridge connecting the town with the road to the gate. Should they continue to hold out, the great difficulty will be in getting the guns up to the proper level for placing them in position ; but then two days' shelling must, in the opinion of good judges, settle the matter. The heat was increasing considerably, and it is therefore to be hoped that the service may be speedily concluded. The name of the Killedar is Hunsraj.—Delhi Gazette, May 20. NORTH-WEST PROVINCES. Our latest Ferozopore letters are to the effect that secresy had been maintained to the last moment regarding the de parture of the Raja of Ladva ' and especially the direction in which he was t o b e sent , b y special order of the Govern ment, to prevent his giving such notice to his friends as might, by possibility, lead to an attempt at conniving at his escape, or effecting a rescue. Sickness was prevalent at Ferozepore, and some cases of cholera had appeared. Small pox had carried off several victims.—Delhi Gazette, May 20. We learn from Loodianah under date of the 16th inst., that the Raja of Ladwa is on his way from Ferozepore to the former station under escort of a wing of the 14th Regiment N. 1., with a party of cavalry (the detachment of this arm from Ferozepore to be exchanged at Dhurumcote for a Ressalah of the Shekawatee Brigade), which will be relieved at Loodianab, whence the prisoner is to be conveyed to Urn ballah. He was to be at Dhurumcote on the 14th or 15th, and is no doubt by this safely lodged at Lovlianah. It is stated in one of our letters that some Shroffs at that place are likely to be proceeded against fl having sup. plied the Raja with means during the war—a fact which, it may be remembered, was hinted at by our na tive Loodianah correspondent at the time of its oc currence. It appears that three, not two, companies of artillery, as we previously mentioned, have gone from Loo dianah towards Kangra; they are under command of Lieut.- Col. Wood of the artillery. The number of mortars sent against the fort is ten. A report prevailed at Loodianah on the 16th that Kangra had been surrendered, but we think we should have heard of it had such been the case. Another report, and more likely to be correct, was that the Doab is to be formed into a divisional command, and that Brigadier Wheeler would, in that case, be transferred to Mhow. The 11th Irregular Cavalry marched, on the morning of the 16th, under Capt. Holmes, towards Ilurree-ke-Ghat, their new des tination, and the infantry and artillery of the Bundelkund Legion had arrived from Ferozepore.—Thici. Sir Henry Hardinge and a party who had gone on a trip into the interior, returned to Simlah on the 16th, much grati fied with what they had seen during their absence. The impression at head-quarters was that accounts of the fall of Kangra, or of its evacuation, might be looked for hourly.— COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. BOMBAY, SATURDAY, MAY 29. The market for cotton goods continues in the same state as before. Sales during the week have been trifling, whilst several vessels have arrived with considerable supplies. Cotton Yarn—There has been some inquiry for Nos. 20 and 30 water, as also for No. 40 mule, and sales to the extent of 30,000 lbs. have been effected of the former at 7 annas per lb., which is % anna. per lb. higher. Other numbers continue without inquiry. Turkey Red, as also Orange, in little or no demand, and difficult of sale. Metals—Spelter has become very dull, and it is difficult to obtain last qnotations. Copper continues in the same state as last reported ; as also iron and lead. Beer--During the week a supply of Allsopp's and Bass's of the last October brew has arrived, and sales of 150 hhds. of the former and 90 hhds. of the latter are reported as having been effected at Rs. 70 per hhd. Cotton Wool—The market continues dull ; small purchases are being made for China at our previous quotations.

S. Gazette, May 19. The Honourable the Governor, with his family, proposes proceeding to the Deccan on the 10th prox., to remain during the rains. From Rajpoor we are sorry to learn that no abatement of cholera has yet taken place among the men of the 22d Regi ment, en route to Baroda, at which place they are happily expected soon to arrive. Notwithstanding all the precautions which have been used to guard against the scourge, large numbers are still carried off every day ; the sufferings of the men being much augmented by the want of water, which is experienced on the marches. The humane conduct of Capt. Wilkie, the Bheel Agent, is spoken of in the highest terms on account of many kind services rendered to the regiment. Among the men of the regiment that relieved the 22d at Mehra, cholera is said to prevail extensively also. courier, May 29.: MADRAS PRICE CURRENT, JUNE 8, 1846.

Mr. Brunel, whose cross-examination was resumed to day by Mr. RowE, stated that the bridge ever the Tamer at Saltash was con structed at a cost of between 60,0001. and 80,0001. Re had not, how ever, made an accurate estimate of the cost. There had been a pro position to form a public footway over the bridge ; but it would be three or four years before it could be completed. He was not aware from personal knowledge that the consent of the parties to raise the level in the neighbourhood of the bridge had been obtained. The level on the Devonshire side could be altered five feet ; but it could be altered only two feet on the Cornwall side, as had been the case at the town of Saltash. Re-examined by Mr. Sergeant KINGLARE—IIad a communication with the Admiralty with respect to the bridge over the Saltash, and It would be necessary for him to raise it 95 feet above high water mark. There were much severer and sharper curves and steeper gradients on many lines in operation than on the present. A. dif ference of . 1 in 60 or 80, as regarded passenger traffic, was not worth speaking of; it would only affect baggage trains. On the Birming ham and Gloucester there was a gradient of 1 in 37. By the CRAIRMAN—It was always the practice to alter the gra clients in conformity with the undulaticns of the country. Room B. The Committee met this day at eleven ; present the Earl of Lons• dale (Chairman), Lord Hawarden, the Earl of Warwick, the Earl ci Ellenborougb, and the Duke of Grafton. LEICESTER AND ZIEDroRn. Mr. GURNEY (with whom was Mr. Wordsworth) addressed the Committee as to the unnecessary injury which the proposed line would inflict on Mr. Gulstoii, by cutting a good deal of ornamental property. Mr. WORDSWORTH called Mr. Quintus Vivian, Nuston Hall, who spoke to the injury which the property he leased from Mr. Guiston would receive. Mr. Woodsey, engineer, said he had been sent down to examine the course of the proposed line over the Gulston estates, and found it intersecting the ornamental grounds close to the house, and proceed ing for a mile and three-quarters by very heavy works. He had at the same time laid out a deviation line, about 700 yards further from the house than the one proposed, which would do less damage to the property, would be less expensive to the company, and would be equally favourable to the public. Room C. LONDON AND BLACKWALIe RAILWAY (WIDENING). The Committee on this group assembled this morning, Lord llatherton in the chair; with Lord Beesley, Earl of Effingham, Lord Foley, and the Earl of Scarborough, when the Chairman stated the Committee had decided that the hearing of this railway should be postponed till to-morrow. EDMONTON AND ENFIELD. Mr. JAMES, on behalf of the promoters, stated that the object of the line, which would be only three miles in length, was to alTordfactlity of communication between the Eastern Counties line and the town of Enfield. The cost would be 36,0001. Some objections were made by landowners, but all might be satisfied by clauses. Mr. Wadding'ton, Deputy-Chairman of the Eastern Counties Com pany, stated generally that the formation of this line would mate rially assist in the development of the produce of the district, and in the reduction of the price of coals at Enfield. There was at present no means of railway transit. Mr. Burke, Chairman of the Sessions, confirmed this testimony. Mr. Borthwick, engineer of the line, confirmed the evidence of Mr. Waddington as to the length and cost of the line, and stated that there would be no engineering difficulties whatever, as the price of 12,000!. per mile would show. He had agreed with the trustees of the only road which this Hite would pass that . it should be crossed by a bridge. The cost of carriage on the Eastern Counties' line for coal is a peony per ton per mile, and the maximum of toll would be twopence on this line. There was no residential property to inter fere with, the nearest house being beyond the limits of deviation, for the land was all of a strictly agricultural character. Mr. Robert Stephenson, the consulting engineer, quite approved of the line. Mr. Leirchild, land valuer, who had resided in the district Upwards of thirty-five years, stated the quantity required was I 9&. In. 23p the price for which was, including the l an d f or the station, 7,243!" and the value of the property near the lin e wou l d be increased 25 t . o , 30 per cent. by its formation.

The evidence on behalf of this Bill was resumed. Mr. Christie, mining engineer, was examined, in corroboration of the evidence of Mr. Geddes, given on Saturday. He had had con s'derable experience of mining operations, and he generally agreed with the statement of Mr. Geddes. He was prepared to go into par ticulars if required. He would explain that the ton of coal at Mans field was more than the u:ual quantity of 20 cwt., so that the actual price of the coal used there was 3s. 9d. a ton. He calculated the consumption of the district on nu line between Cumnock and Dum fries, at 34,000 tons. This was calculating the consumption at a ton and a half per head, including the supply for lime works, and adding 50 per cent. for increase of traffic. This 34,000 tons would come from the Sanquhar and Mansfield coal works. He also estimated the Canobie coal field to send 84,180 tons along the Canobie branch towards Dumfries. A portion of this would pass along the Caledonian line from the Springkeld station, 18,000 tons would be exported, and the rest con sumed at and on the route to Dumfries. He estimated 12,800 tons of lime would be carried on an average for six miles. Cross-examined—There was considerable supplies of lime on the line from Dumfries to Carlisle. He had estimated a ton and a half of coal for each individual, and he did not think it a High estimate, as it was the same as that given by the Caledonian last year. He thought Canobie and Sanquhar coal would meet at Dumfries on about equal terms, and hence the consumption would be about halved. The price of screened coal at Canobie at the pit's mouth was ss. 4d. a ton. He had been informed that such was the price. He calculated that Canobie coal would be put on hoard ship at Annan for 7s. 4d. a ton. To Mr. 311;arny—He thought the Canobic eoal would compete with the Cumberland coal in the Irish market. The Canobie coal was quite as good as the Whitehaven coal. He admitted, however, that the English coal was superior to the Sanquhar and Mansfield coal. He only judged by looking at them, as he had not made ex periments by burning them. A good deal of English coal at present came to Annan ' • but he considered the opening of this line would exclude the English coal from this district entirely. He thought the Canobie coal could be laid down at Dumfries for 9s. 4d., and if the English coal could then be laid down for I Is. 4d., still he did not think a pound of it would be used. He bad made the calculations from in formation furnished him, and by looking at the map. Ile had not been over every part of the district himself. There were, no doubt, many slips or breaks in the Sanquhar coal-field, but they occurred in every coal-field. Ile had not been down. the Mansfield coal-pits, but, looking at the character of the strata, he considered there was a large supply of coal. He was geologist enough to draw conclusions to satisfy his own mind. Re-examined—He was quite satisfied that the estimate he had made of the coal and lime to be carried was a moderate one. Mr. Wright, manager of the Canobie coal-field, under the Duke of kuccleuch, deposed that, at the instance of his Grace, he had gone over the route of the railway. He had reported favour ably. He was acquainted with both Sanquhir and Canobie coal fields. The former was 7 miles long by 3 broad; the aggregate thick ness of the seams was 15% feet. At present the quantity raised was 15,600 tons a: year. This was for local purposes, as the expense of cartage to Dumfries was too great to take it there. Dumfries was supplied at present by English coal, of which 16,000 tons were an-• nually consumed. The present price was 16s. Bd. at the ship's side. IVith the railway Sanquhar coal could be laid down at Dumfries for Bs. I Id. There were no disturbances in the Sanquhar field that materially interfered with its working. Until a year ago the working of coal had been in the crop. With regard to the Canobie coal-field, it was 3 miles by 2 in extent, and contained ten seams of 55 feet thickness in the aggregate. The present openings were calculated to yield 100,000 tons a-year for seventy years. Another field had been proven, which would extend the supply of 100,000 tons a-year for 200 years. The present price of English coal at Annan was 145. a ton, whereas by this line they would be supplied at 7s. 4d. By this means Annan, instead of being an importing, would become an ex porting town. The Crawiek branch would be of great ad vantage to the lead misses near that line. These misses were the largest in Scot:and, and used about 2,500 tons a year, which were principally carted from Sanquhar, 12 miles. They would go by the branch railway. Ile agreed with the table put In by Mr. Geddes. Cross-examined—The line ran for 22 miles through the property of the Duke of Buccleuch. He did not think the. Sanquhar coal as good as the Cumberland coal. It might be worth a shilling a ton less. In the beginning of the present year, the price of coal at Dum fries was I6s. Bd. at the ship's side, and in 1844 it was 12s. 6d. He did not think the difference had arisen from the strikes at coal-pits, but from the increased trade of the country. He had not taken steps to prevent parties from the Caledonian Company getting information respecting the mineral fields. He was not aware that such had been done. He was not aware that there was any clay lit to make bricks or tiles in the neighbourhood of Sanquh ar . Mr. Kennedy, a landed proprietor of Kirkland, Dumfriesshire, ex amined—He resided on his property in Dumfrieshire, but held extensive farms in the counties of Sutherland, Inverness, and Argyll. He rented land to the amount of 6,000/. a year, and the extent of it was 200,000 acres. The sheep that he raised in the north he trans ferred to Dunfermline, Kirkcudbrightshire, and Roxburghshire. He sold considerable numbers of these to dealers in the district, to be fat tened and sent into England. A considerable number of fat sheep and lambs were now sent to Edinburgh and Glasgow, and if they had a railway both for England and these cities, they would be sent by it. The half-fed sheep, or " hoggets," would also be sent by the same mode. He thought from 130,000 to 140,000 sheep and lambs of all sorts would be sent to England, and Edinburgh, and Glasgow annually. This was an increase on his former examination from re cent inquiries he had made. The larger proportion would find their way on to the railway at Dumfries. He agreed with the table which had been drawn up of the sheep, cattle, and horse traffic. He thought it quite correct. He thought 35,000 stone of wool would be sent out of the country which the line Intersected, partly Into the west of Scotland, and partly to England. HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP LXX. The Select Committee on this group met to-day for the first time, at one o'clock, in Room 24 (Grand Corridor) ; present, Sir George Clerk (in the chair), Hon. Captain Carnegie, Colonel Peel, Mr. Smythe, and Mr. Tower. The following is a list of the Bills referred to them : Dublin and Sandymount Atmospheric. Sligo and Shannon. Dublin, Belfast and Coleraine Junction. Galway and Kilkenny Dublin and Enniskillen. Londonderry and Enniskillen Extension. The Sligo and Shannon Bill being unopposed, was referred to Mr. Greene, the Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means. LONDONDEIERY AND ENNISICILLEN. The Hon. Mr. TALBOT, Q.C., appeared on behalf of the promoters of this Bill, the object of which, he said, was to improve the line of the Londonderry and Enniskillen, which was sanctioned last session. Mr. Ross, the engineer, having briefly given evidence as to the character of the line, The Bill was postponed until to-morrow, and the preamble ordered to be proved on the production of some formal documents. DUBLIN, BELFAST, AND COLERAINE. This Bill which is unopposed was briefly opened by counsel, and after the tendering of evidence, the preamble was declared to be proved, the clauses agreed to, and the Bill passed. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was a fair demand for Cotton at Liverpool on Satur day, and 5,000 bags were sold, 1,500 being on speculation and for export. The market upon the whole was firm. Shares were steady. A considerable degree of interest is felt in all commercial circles to learn the proposals of Government relative to the changes in the, sugar duties. The stability of the Ministry in not a few quarters is supposed to depend upon the fate of Lord John Russell's scheme; but the more general opinion is that the intended alteration will, after a smart but slight struggle, be acquiesced in, as it appears to be an admitted fact, that some change muit occur, and that too, with or without an appeal to the country,in the shape of a dissolution of Parliament. Whether it be true or not, the impression is that there will be a gradual decline yearly, in the impost upon foreign slave-grown sugars, to go on for five years. It is, however, all but useless to speculate further upon the subject, most interesting though it be, as a very few hours can intervene before the public will be put in possession of the scheme of the Premier. An important change has taken pla in the state of the Corn Market, prices having fallen not less than ss. per quarter. The supplies are immense, say about 10,000 quar ters. The farmers seeing that the prospect of the harvest is most satisfactory, are pushing forward their old stocks with a most earnest desire to realise the present rates. Another fall in value is fully calculated upon next week. The in quiries fur foreign grain are very limited indeed. There are not any Colonial arrivals in the City to-day. The market for Consols has been certainly heavy at 95% for the Aceount, and at 95% for the transfer to-morrow. The speculators for a fall have been rather active, under the im pression that a fresh Ministerial difficulty exists on th e S ugar Duties. The value of Exchequer Bills is again reduced to 103. premium. India Bonds remain at 255. premium. India Stock has fluctuated from 261 1 4 to 26214. Bank Stock has been heavy at. 208—a fall of 1 per cent. since Saturday. The Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have receded to 9714. There have been bargains done in the Russian Metal liques to day, at from 112% to 112. Spanish Five per Cents. have declined to 24% to 24%. Spanish Three per Cents. to 36 ; and the French Five per Cents. at 121. The Dutch Funds are firm. The Railway Share Market has been very animated to day. Prices have scarcely varied. The Eastern Counties are firm ; the r:ccident that occurred on this line on Saturday evening not having had any (ffcct upon prices. We hear that no deaths have up to this hour resulted from the col lision. BRITISH FUNDS. ONE O'CLOCK. Bank Stock .. 208 Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities .. 95% Three per Cent.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY'S CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY• lac ea The past week's arrivals of all descriptions of Grain, in e in af Flour, of home produce, were on a very moderate, indeed We c or say limited, scale ; but, from Ireland, the rece ipt s o f Oats were, A O siderably on the increase. From a b roa d, th e i mports o f WWI , 0 ,1 Barley were, comparati ve ly spea ki ng , small ; but those of Oa ts i al Flour were somewhat exten s i ve . F res h up to-day, an unos e a ct, large supply of Wheat of home produce came to hand; in ;Os it was by far more ext ens i ve th an on any Pre 'lll Monday during the whole of the present year. . n itS stands, therefore, being heavily supplied, not onl' or the iresh supplies, but those left over from last week, and the A i ' e lt dance of buyers by no means large, the trade was exces t f l eo dull, at a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last o_; e e 4s to ss. per quarter, at which a clearance was not effected. r e s.' was no new English Wheat at market, but several parcels are or pected next week. The show of Foreign Wheat was again e ' l „ per sive. All descriptions were a mere drug, and might have bee u 'oef• chased at a reduction in value of from 2s. to 4s. per e rolg' Most favourable accounts continue to reach us respecting the de , Wheat in particular. The show of all kinds of Barley Was not lade, Grinding parcels moved off steadily, at late rates, but all other s,ior were much neglected. Superfine Malt was quite as dear, wLit in teog demand. In all other kinds of Malt very few sates it place. Owing to the large influx of Oats from abroa°,loo' Oat trade was in a very depressed state, at a decline in value ni„joiss is to 2s per ' quarter . In Beans very little was doing at 1 0 ;010 11 quotations. We had on sale about 40 quarters of new Peas , „„0 sold at 38s par quarter. Old qualities were heavy.
