LSANDON, in moving the third reading of the Rge's St eam P acket Company ' s Bill, s t ate d, th a t i n 4114 Bill there were some clauses to which objec we made, a s th e y gave a power to that Cot:U.- r several others; but as the Bill stood at present, bnaPly to e na bl e t h e C ompany - to sue an d b e sue d, 31 2ke some other regulations, for the management _ _ "'merits.

The Hon. Memb:r stated the 14 1 :' derived by competition since the original 'lt i 'i'nt of strain packets between Liverpool, Bristol, .„, , ' b a rk, arid other places in that channel.

The Noble Lord who moved the third leai • the Bill had said that it asked fur no immunities 'ls 4 ' were possessed by other companies ; but V is hi 4 l :ument, as the House was not bound to follow a e 'Ple, and that too just at the time when the lid i a ! doing away with other corporations.

Although much al -1 th e , L t o Committee , it was still, in its present form, as : e i 4 „ s be of as much injury es in its original itilsr i, u ,a he should therefore second the amendment of VVlrrinber f , r Greenock. l l ki ' PATTEN asked what monopoly the Bill Ave vehicle was not enjoyed by the Company al t% ti ;'s to the by-laws read by the Hon. Member op- Ntiti t , 'le would not be at all affected by the passing or 1,,, 1t ,„'''f the Bill, the provisions of which merely V, "titpany the power of cueing and being sued as i t 4 led "'e would admit that several petitions bad been bo o a gainst t h e Bill, but the clauses of which these i i l l's ti t "lelained had been expunged; and he could d t jlll: (l3 jection to the motion of the Noble Lord, tha r• A t read a third time. t ‘LFROY objected to the Bill as giving to the Company a much greater capital, and consequently re ducing the scope for competition, by which alone the public could be beneStted. From Waterford and other places petitions had been presented against the Bill, which objected to it as a whole, as tvtll as to certain clauses which had been expunged. An HON. MEMBER considered that, although the Bill only asked for an increase of 30,0001. to the capital cr the Company, it was still most objectionable in principle. As far as the Bill went, it was pro tanto a monopoly; for the provision for suing and being sued was a privilege beyond the common law. Not a single public ground had been adduced in support of the Bill, upon which alone it should be cranted. The object and the practice of the Company had been to throw out every competitor, and the partied now came to Parliament to enable them to perpetuate the system. He drew a marked distinction between Bills fir steam packet companies, and those for railways ;—in the former, all parties could ploug4 the ocean without hindrance,—in the latter, it was necessary that the sanc tion of the Legislature should be given before the grounds of private individuals could be cut through. Major BEAUCLERK supported the amendment. Every one would see that the consequence of giving a monopoly to this Company would be, that they would run down all smaller companies ; and it appeared to him extraordi nary, that this Bill should now be pressed forward, at a time when the House was engaged with doing an ay with all monopolies. He therefore hoped that Hon. Members who were oppoving monopolies would not give their sanction to this Bill. Mr. JERVIS said the House should protect the public, and take care the public shou d have as cheap and expeditious a conveyance from one part of the county to another as possible. It had been said that what the Company were seeking to do by this Bill they could do without ; but their coming to this House fur powers which they could not do without proved quite the reverse.—(Hear, hear.) In his (Mr. J.'s) opinion, this Company ought not to be,countenanced in keeping up their unnatural coalition, which would have the power of ruining other companies, and prevent the public from having a cheap, and, what was more material, a safe, con. veyance. In his t pinion no sufficient reason had been given why they should have a competition which they conic' not have without the assistance of the House. But it bad been said this company was composed of different persons who had subscribed their money to keep up the concern.—(Hear.) It vas merely in effect this—that certain persons, who had been proprietors of vessels, were willing to contribute their vessels to keep up the competition, and to that extent, and to that extent only, they were willing to become shareholders. These indivi duals wished to have the assistance of the House to carry on their coalition, and that being the case he should cer tainly give his support to the amendment. Dr. BALDWIN felt it his duty to oppose the third reading of this Bill, because it would have the effect of completely putting down all sailing vessels trading be- tween England and Leland. Mr. BARRON thought that no man, after reading the resolutions of the Company itself, could doubt that their object was monopoly, and that they would, as a matter of course, do away with ail minor companies, by which the public would be exceedingly injured ; and not merely the public, but all the great out ports of the United King dom ; and that this Company would charge whatever price they pleated. Ile should, therefore, support the amendment. Mr. Cobhett, Mr. J. Hardy, Mr. Godson, and Mr. Maxwell opposed the Bill. Lord SANDON, in reply, hoped the House would not be led away by the vague cry of monopoly, wh i ch in no way whatever had been proved as to this Bill. The all had been subjected to the adverse investigation of a scrutinizing committee for many days ; and the Com pany did not claim a limited liability. On the contrary, every proprietor would be liable to the whole amount of his property. Colonel TORRENS could not see how the charge of monopoly could apply in the present instance. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the gal lery was cleared for a division, when there appeared, _ _ For the third reading - - Against it Majority against the third reading —M ENGLISH CLAIMS ON DENMARK. The want of space prevented the possibility of our no ticing yesterday the presentation of a petition by Mr. Parker, from the cutlers of Hallamshire, calling the at• tension of the House to the long neglected claims of Eng lish merchants upon the kingdom of Denmark, for the seizure and confiscation of their property 27 years ago, and praying the House to interfere in order to obtain a speedy adjustment of them. It gave rise to a debate which lasted until the Speaker left the chair; and to-day it was resumed. Mr. GROTE to day said, he had some time ago pre sented a petition upon the same subject from some claim ants in the city of London. He thought that a clearer case had never been established by the petitioners. The claims arose from the confiscation and sequestration of the property and book debts of the British merchants by the Danish Government,, which sequestration was resorted to in consequence of a prior act of seizure of Danish property in British ports by the British Govern ment. Immediately afterwards, the British merchants made a representation of their case to the British Government, and were told that their claims should be duly considered in the event of a treaty of peace being concluded.—(Hear, hear.) In 1814, however, wheu that treaty was made, so far from those claims being provided for, it actually legal'zed the confiscations of the property by the Danish Government. The British Go vernment had declared that the original sentence of confis cation was wholly at variance with the law of nations, and bad urged in 1809 as a reason for not then pressing on the Danish Government the necessity of pay ing the claimants, that the treaty of peace had not been concluded ; and yet when that treaty was signed, not a word was inserted even to recognize the claims, and all succeeding Ministers had neglected co obtain their settle ment. Lord MORPETH regretted that no member of the Go vernment was present. He could bear testimony to the ur gency with which the petitioners had pressed their claims on the attention of Government. Considering, however, th• present state of the finances of the country, he did not think the present the most auspicious period to bring for ward any further demand upon them; but he was con vinced that a nation, bearing the high character that ours did, would hardly fail to do justice, when a case had been made out so fully and so satisfactorily. He hoped that the intimations which bad so frequently been made, both by the petitioners and by Members of the House, would induce the Government to take up the subject; otherwise, he thought that before another session of Par liament would commence, some other means would be taken of enforcing a due consideration of the claims. An Hob'. MEMBER trusted the Government would take the ease of the petitioners into its most serious considera tion, and make that provision for them to which they were so justly entitled. Col. L. HAY believed that there never was a case brought before the House in which the merchants of this country had been treated with greater injustice than the petitioners. In his opinion, although the present Go vernment was not identified with the transactions that occasioned the claims of the petitioners, it was their imperative duty specifically to p: dorm the terms of the contract which had been entered into. Tl:ere never was a class of his Majesty's subjects who bad been treated in a more unworthy manner for the last 25 years, with the exception of the petitioners. Mr. M. PHILLIPS, as a commercial man, felt called upon to support the prayer of the petition. When helooked to the fact thatl,2oo,ooo had been received by his Majesty's Government for the settlement of the Danish claims, and when he recollected the small amount of those claims, he could not help thinking that they ought to have been settled lung ago. In his opinion the petitioners had Ewen most grossly treated, and if no previous administra tion had thought the subject worthy of consideration, he hoped the present would, ❑ot taking into consideration the statute of limitations. Air. WARBURTON thought that no lapse of time would justify Ministers in not eranting to the petitioners that justice to which they were so deservedly entitled. Mr. STRICKLAND was old enough to recollect the circumstances which gave rise to this claim, and that o❑ that occasion what was called the law of nations was stretched too far. It was considered by the Danish Government to have been an act of enormity ; and he considered that the British Government, after hiving received 1,200,0001. by the confiscation of Danish property, was bound no see that no act of injus tice was committed, in consequence of that confiscation, to British merchants. Government was simply called upon to pay about a tenth of what bad been received; and he thought the inord maxim was as applicable to nations as to individuals, that " Honesty is the best policy." Mr. COBRETT protested against the principle of the people of this country, or of any ocher, being called upon to make good the losses of merchants, whether arising from a state of war or otherwise. If, as stated by the Hon. Member fin. Bridporr, the money received from the sale of the Danish property went to the members of a certain family as droits of the Admiralty, he (Mr. C.) would say that such members of the Royal Family as bad received the money should be called upon to meet the claims of those British merchants. Hr. TENNYSON had understood that, in consequence of a long negotiation on the subject between the British and Danish Governments, the former were bound to in demnify the present claimants. The British Government was called upon to satisfy those claims upon every prin ciple of justice ; and when the question came regularly before the House, he should feel himself called upon to vote for the liquidation of these long out-standing debts. He thought this discussion would be entirely lost unless his Hon. Friend, the Member for the City of London, gave notice that he would move for a Select Committee, or bring forward some precise motion on the subject which had now been hanging over for several years, far he thought public justice required that some inquiry into the subject should tike place, and he was sure his Majesty's Government would give every opportunity for such a dis cussion. Mr. PRYME hoped the Member for the City of Lon don would feel inclined to bring forward some specific motion on the subject. Mr. MARSHALL said it appeared to him this was not merely a case of great hardship, but of gross in justice ; and he had yet to learn that any Government could deny that these claims were just.—(Hear, hear.) He bad heard no one as yet state that they were otherwise than perfectly just, and if that were so, be felt confident, such claims being just, the House would see that they were amply satisfieo. The country, whatever may have been the way in which it had distributed the Droits of the Admiralty, it had by Act of Parliament disposed of tbern.—(Hear.) The country was in possession of the fund out of which their claims ought to be satisfied, and he hoped that some Hon. Gentleman would, in the early pArt of next session, bring for ward the question whether, aye or no, these claims were to be satisfied. Mr. DENISON thought theme claims were just against the Government, against the country, and against the Parliament ; and he thought it but an act of justice, that they should be speedily satisfied. Mr. GROTE explained. Mr. PARKER intimated that if Government did not, during the recess, take some step in this matter, it would be brought before Parliament in a substantive and specific form next session. Mr. HAWES presented a petition from certain medical practitioners, against the rep,al of the Apothecaries Act. Colonel BU ILER gave notice of his intention to move next session for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the actual value of the Church lands in Ireland in order to ascertain whether they were let at their real value and adequate to the support of the clergy of the Established Church, and also for the purpose of affording a reasonable compensation to the holders of im propriate tithes. Mr. PRYME presented a petition from Canterbury, complaining of the misapplication of corporate funds. Also, a petition from the town of Huntingdon, relative to cor poration abuses. Both petitions referred to the Corporation Committee. The Hon. Member also pre sented a rtition relative to the rating of tenements under a certain value. Captain YORKE presented a petition from the com missioners of the Bedfiird Level, relative to the tithe com— mutation Act, and another from two merchants of Dover on the subject of the Danish claims. Mr. HARLAND presented a petition from Durham against the inhabited house duty. The petitioners com plained not only of th e grievances of that impost, but of the number of surcharges to which they were subject. Mr. COBBETT said if the lion. Member would move for an investigation into the abuses created by those surcharges, he would do a great deal towards the repeal of the tax complained of.—(Hear.) The House would never be thought of until that tax was repealed, and the refusal of the Ministry to repeal it had done that Ministry more harm in the opinion of the people than all the other taxes together —except indeed their rescinding (he did not like the term) —of the resolution for the repeal of half the malt tax. Mr. PRICE presented a petition from Waterford for an amendment of the criminal code, and another against colonial slavery. Mr. COLLIER presented a petition from the merchants shipowners, and master-mariners of the port of Plymouth, praying that merchant seamen might be exempted from the payment of sixpence per month to Greenwich Hospital ; and that the money now payable to that purpose might f,r the future be applied to the maintenance of merchant seamen's hospitals, and to the benefit of their widows and children. After the presentation of several other petittons the Speaker left the Chair. EAST INDIA HOUSE-(TI-HS DAY.) A Quarterly General Court was held at the above place to-day. C. MARJORIBANKS, Esq., took the chair at twelve o'clock, and laid upon the table certain returns of the allowances and remunerations granted by the Company during the last year ; also a pros pective account of the revenues of India for the next year, and accounts relative to the trade with India and China. He also informed the Court that the Directors had agreed to recommend that a dividend of 51 per cent., on the Company's capital, should be paid for the half year ending sth July next. A motion to that effect was put and carried. Mr. TWINING presented a report from the Committee appointed to consider the by-laws. They reported that they had been duly observed during the last year. The same Hon. Gentlemen were then re-appointed on the Committee. The CHAIRMAN laid upon the table resolutions of the House of Commons, relative to the East India charter, which were read. A PROPRIETOR had been present, and heard the ad mirable address made on that occasion by Mr. Grant, and found that there were one or two alterations suggested by him; one of which was the formation of a new pre sidency. He wished to know whether that had formed any part of the discussion between the Court of Directors and Government, as it had not been alluded to in the re cent discussions in that Court. The CHAIRMAN said, everything that had passed be tween the Court of Directors and the President of the Board of Control, had been laid before the Court of Proprietors. The same Proprietor then gave notice that he would move a resolution at the next Court upon the subject. He did not think that the Company bad been well treated by Government in having had such a communication with held from them. The CHAIRMAN said, that in all probability there would be a Bill founded on those resolutions introduce d into the House, and then would be the time to exercise their right of petition. Mr. POYNDER moved that a copy of the letter of the Directors to the Bengal Government respecting the pil grim tax should be printed.—Agreed to. Captain Go WA N rose to move for a return of the mimes of the ambassadors, envoys, charges d'affaires, &c., that had been appointed to the Court of Perris during the last thirty years, with a❑ account of the expenses that had been thereby incurred. He said the embassies, if ❑eces sary at all, might be executed at a very small cost, com pared with what at present was paid. He would further argue, that if they were necessary, the East India Com pany should not he saddled with all the expense, as the objects were national. Dr. GILCHRIST seconded the motion, which was agreed to unanimously. Dr. GILCHRIST then moved a resolution to the effect, that as for as it was consistent with the safety of the Indian army, an end might be put to flogging and cruel capital punishment, especially to the blowing of native soldiers from the mouths of cannon, and that schools might be instituted for the educa tion of Seapoys. The CHAIRMAN read an order sent out to the Bmgal Government, embracing the points in question, which might render the motion unnecessary. Dr. GILCII RI , T said the order embraced only Bengal, and did not include Madras and Bombay. The Learned Doctor spoke at ra .nsiderabk , length in support of his mo tion, but, from want of room, we are obliged to omit his arguments. - • - After a discussion, in which Colonel Stanhope, Captai❑ Gowan, Mr. Rigby, Mr. Poynder, and the Chairman, took part, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. lIUTCUINSON then rose to move for papers rela tive to the business at Travancore, and was left speaking. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE.

This was an action btought by the plaintiff, a shoemaker, occupying a small cottage in Swinton place, Gray's-inn lane, to recover compensation in damages from the defen dant, who was his lan&ord, for assaulting him. Mr. DUNBAR and Mr. MawsELL conducted the case for the plaintiff, and Mr. SAUNDERS that for the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff had brought two actions, one of which was against Lb- , defendant, and Mr. Hayes, a broker, for disturbing him in the rssession of his house; and upon the trial of that - action he obtained a verdict, with 40s. damages. The present action was against the defendant only, for assaulting the plaintiff on that occasion. In both actions the plaintiff sued in forma pauperis. From the evidence of the principal witness on this oc casion, it seemed that the defendant, in making the dis tress, assaulted and knocked down the plaintiff. In cross examination the witness admitted that he was subsequently indicted at the Middlesex Sessions, for assaulting the de fendant, and was convicted. On re-examination, how ever, he swore that he did not assault the defendant, and that the indictment was preferred in order to keep him out of the way. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Montreal p3pers to the 21st May, and Quebec to the IPth May, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. _ (From the Montreal Papers.) The Newfoundland papers contain an account of a dif. ference between the two branches of the Legislature, on the subject of a Revenue Bill. As far as can be collected from the address of the Assembly, and the Governor's reply, the case is as follows :—The Executive wants money for the business of Government, to raise which the Assembly imposes a tax on luxuries, in the shape of a duty on wines, spirits, &c. This all Colonial Assemblies have done before. The Bill in question, however, does not appear to have been any thing beyond an ordinary Revenue Bill, con , equently his Excellency Sir Thomas Cochrane would have at once given it the royal assent; but it was not permitted him to have a voice in the ques tion, the Council having rejected the Bill set forth in the address. Their motives in thus embarrassing the Go vernment have not transpired. IMPORTANT TO SETTLERS —A hand-bill has been printed for circulation, signed by A. C. Buchannan, chief agent for settlers, which contains the following :—.4 All emigrants who reach York, and may require it, will be employed by Government."— Quebec Mercury. It is rumoured in- town that Sir Jahn Colburne, lieu tenant-Governor of Upper Canada, is recalled, and that his Excellency Lord Aylmer is instructed to discounts• nance all attempts to foster national distinction. He is to conform himself fur the future according to the will of the majority. About 1,100 shares Stock of the City Bank were tak(n yesterday. (From the Quebec Papers.) The Halifax p tpi-rs mention that on the 20th March his Honour the President prorogued the Parliament of Nova Scotia, in a speech which confers the highest testi mony to the industry of the Members. The Upper Canada papers leave very little doubt that a complete change is taking pl .ce in the Executive Govern ment of Upper Canada. The present Executive Council is to he suppressed altogether. By the New York papers received, to the 25th of May, we learn by accounts from Mexico, that the late Minister, AldTan, Secretary of State, and Farir, late Minister of War, have absconded or secreted themselves; and that Manguine,l,te Minister of Finance, is in confinement. A circular has been issued to all commanders of the ports, to prevent their escape—hut gold does wonders. THE FUNDS. We have no foreign arrivals this morning, and only one of ship letters. The Funds ate improving; Consols which left off yesterd cy at 89i for the Account, opened at the same price, but soon after went up to 90k -I. This rise may be attributed to a general opinion that our state affairs are not in so desperate a situation as was ima gined. There is every likelihood that the differences be tween the two Houses will be brought to an amicable • issue. In the Foreign Market nothing doing. HALF-PAST ONE. Five hundred thousand pounds will be paid in July, by the East India Company, to the holders of one of the classes of Carnatie Stock, as the time then arrives for its paying nff. We understand that the whole of the old Brazilian dividends has been received, and 6,0001. for the new dividends. Consols have been fluctuating during the morning from 90 to 908 at which price they are at present. We may expect soon to hear of some important events from Portugal, as Don Pedro in person is, we hear, going to make an attempt on Lisbon. In general all Foreign Stocks have improved this morning. _ _ THREE O'CLOCK. Consols for the Account 90.

The party, which consisted of about seventy, appeared in full military uniform, and the Members of Orders of Knighthood wore their respective ensigns. The services of plate and china (the latter having paintings of actions and places celebrated in his Grace's campaigns) presented to his Grace by Fo reign Potentates, were displayed on the occasion.

REFORM BILL.—It was stated in some of the London Papers that the 7th of June (the day of th passing of this Act) was celebrated in the West with public dinners. Taunton, at least, did not share the fes tivity ; not that the Bill itself is not valued, but because, from the timidity or treachery of the men in power, we have nut derived from it those advantages which we had a right to expect, and which were promised by those Is hi, now withhold them.—Sheiliolne Journal. There are various reports as to the object o the Prince of ORANGE'S expected visit to this country and amongst others, a matrimonial speculation foe on: o' his sons with a young and illustrious Princess ha, bent• freely spoken of.

An Ex-Minister, who has been justly re moved from his foreign station after years of indolence and neglect of duty, exclaimed, not many days ago, at a club meeting, that "for his part he would prefer a Raclin Administration to the present one;" on whilch one of tha party, who had not lost his reason, lily observed, " Have a care—the Whigs have taken away your place —the Radicals may take away your pension." The West India merchants are said to be in daily communication with Mr. LEFEVRE, and lending their cordial co-operation to the Colonial-office owards carrying the new measure into effect. This is but right, for of their satisfaction at least with the bargain male, no doubt can be entertained. No communication has yet been made to them as to the time of making the propc,stql compensation, or on the anode of raising the money, with which, in fact, the West India merchants have nothing at all to do. There is a silly rumour whispered about, we prequne in order to be of greater effeCt, that Mr. WIGNEY, our senior representative, has accepted an al.- pointment to which pay is attached. It will be merely cufficient for us to say that the scandalous part of the ru mour is the pure invention of some concealed enemy: Mr. WIGNEv's honorary appointment as Deputy Lied. tenant of Sussex, has for sinister purposes been spoken of by a cowardly slanderer as a lucrative post. -.

STROMNESS, ORKNEY, JUNE 10.—On the 6th instant, three boats went out from this port, and caught a few hundred very fine ash; and on the morning of the Sth, two boats came in, one with seven crans, and the other with four crans of very fine excellent herrings. One of the cargoes was purchased by a curer, and shipped for London immediately. From the reports of the fisher men there is a fine appearance of fishing in this neigh bourhood, and we only want a few of your persevering neighbours to arrive with their vessels to take them off the fishermen's hands, as an early fishing is of great advantage to all concerned Glasgow Herald. _ _ THE MOORS.—We have very favourable accounts from various parts of the country, of the appear ance of game in the moors this season. The early part of the spring was so very cold, as to throw the breeding about threa weeks later than last year ; but the weather has since been so dry and warm that there can hardly be a rotten or unhatched eu, and accordingly the cores of young grouse that have yet been seen are very full. There is now more to fear from severe drought than any thing else, and therefore a few summer showers would he highly acceptable, until the cheepers acquire strength of wing to carry them from the dry patches of their nativity, to cool their " crappins" at the neighbouring lochs and streams. —Edinburgh Evening Post.

This work may be obtained of all respectable booksellers throughout the United Kingdom. AN EFFECTUAL CURE FOR SOME FAMILY QUARRELS. — M. RosE, the Private Secretary to Louis XIV., was wealthy in the extreme. His daughter was married to a Nobleman who expected to be enriched by the des h of his faher-in•law; nevertheless be could not agree with his bride ; they had perpetual quarrels, and M. Rosa was frequently teased by the complaints his son in-law brought to him of the untractable temper of his daughter. At last he was provoked to say " I am sorry you find your wife so troublesome, my friend, and I am determined, the next cause of complaint she gives you, to punish her by disinheriting her." From that moment the father heard of no mere grievances. THE LONDON MAlL.—Since Tuesday the mail has arrived at the Post-office at half-past four o'clock. The newspapers are delivered immediately on its arrival, the letters in three quarters of an hour after. The early arrival of the mail is likely to cause a change in the hours of business. The news-rooms which used to be nume rously attended up to nine and ten o'clock, are now com paratively empty at those hours, gentlemen having finished reading the papers much earlier than they used to finish them when the arrival of the mail took place at six. It is now worthy of the consideration of the respective Com inittees, whether the exchange and the other news-rooms might not be closed one hour earlier than they are at pre sent.—Liverpool Albion. DEAL, JUNE 16.—A most distressing acci dent occurred yesterday afternoon, about three quarters of a mile off the town, by the upsetting of a small boat, having on board two young men and three fine young women, who had gone afloat on an excursion of pleasure, and, although prompt aid was afforded by some Deal gal leys, one of the young women, named HAYUAN, was seen to go down just as the boats were approaching ; another, named HARROL, expired soon after she was brought on shore ; and the third, named TILLY, lies in a very precarious state. The names of the young men are DUNN and SNELLING ; the former supported two of the females for a considerable time, when he was forced, in order to save himself, to quit his hold of HAYMAN, the unfortunate girl who was seen to sink. The cause of the accident arose in a great measure from the boat not having sufficient ballast. ADELPHI THEATRE.--.A new piece called Long Finn, or the Treasure Seeker, was last night pro. duced at this theatre. Ifs main incidents are drawn from a p trt of the history of one of that latter race of Bucca neers, who, ball, smuggler and half privateer, defrauded his Al ijesty's revenue ashore, and rifi , d his Majesty's foes on the high seas, and who, as it is now beyond doubt as certained, were secretly countenanced for golden reasons, by some of the needy viceroys of our young American colonies. The hero of this piece is Keningsmarke, nick n imed Long Finn, a picaromi captain, who aster some mishap at sea, has for some years secretly and succes.fully pursued his vocation in conjunction with Lord Cornbury, the Governor of New York. 0. SMITH performed the part of Long Finn with his usual dramatic powers. In the other prominent character of the piece of the Treasure Seeker, Mr. NVILLIAMS showed a good deal of power, anti occasionally some masterly acting. Miss SOMERVILLE had what best suits her, little to do, as the seeming daughter of the Viceroy, but she sang a couple of songs with good taste and correctness of note, for which she is remarkable. An inquest was taken on Thursday last, at the White Horse Inn, Ipswich, on the bodies of two in fant daughters of Lieutenant-Colonel and Mrs. STISTED. The deceased chddren were twins, were born on Saturday, the Bth inst., and their death happened under the follow ing circumstances :—On Wednesday last, the nurse in attendance on Mrs. STISTED, finding it necessary to admi nister a little castor oil to the infants, sent one of the servants in the family to Mr. HARMER'S, the chymist's, for twopenny worth of the syrup of red poppies ; the ser vant went accordingly, and asked for the syrup of red pop pies (which, it appeared in evidence, is almost invariably supplied for, and administered to, children), but, by mis take, the apprentice gave her the syrup of white poppies, the similarity between which and the syrup of red poppies is so near, that no common observer would be able to die tinguish between the two, and the difference was not ob served by the nurse, who administered to each infant about a teaspoon full of castor oil, with seven drops of the syrup; it also appeared by the evidence, that the applica tions for this medicine are for " syrup of poppies.' About two hours after administering the dose, the children were observed to be drowsy. Dr. Biter and Mr. HuLLim were immediately called in, but one of the children was dead, and the other shortly after expired. Verdict— " Death by misadventure, occasioned by syrup of white poppies being administered to the deceased for syrup of red poppies, served by mistake by Mr. !Lumen's appren tice." To add to the affliction of Mr. and Mrs. STISTED, on Wednesday, also died their eldest eon, C. HancoultT STISTED, aged 17, a cadet of Sandhurst College. .—Esser Herald LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MONDAY, JUNE 17.—We have bad a moderate demand f , r Cotton to-day, with a steady market, an d no di spo ,i t i on at pre seat s e at to give way in prices.
