PLURALITIES BILL. T h e Archbishop of CA . NT . E PBUR Y, in rising to move . vs,asseeond reading of this Bill, ' said, by the present Bill it th e Pro Posed to repeal the whole of the Statutes respecting ux government of the Church, and to embody them in one to e? „ 4re- -a measure which he sincerely hoped would tend Viiie.rne the efficacy of the Church. The Act of Henry Port--' 4 ` away with pluralities, but with certain very im- A t FUL exceptions. As matters now stood, two benefices .eum_ 'h e ulYe miles distance might be held by any bit tl ; be ing a chaplain to a Nobleman or a Doctor ofinD.ivi es : A Clergyman might also hold . a preferment in a ile -t fi u c edrai , or • in a cathedral or a collegiate church, and a be- L eav e at the same time. Such a system he thought pressed 41 e ,, 43' uPon the Clergy, ter it afforded the opporfunit( re o! fer`re ulating in one individual too much ecclesiastical p th e nt, and at the same time it led to non-residence. t By these evilspresent Bill it was proposed to apply a remedy tiro , One of its provisions enacted that in no case mo o re than diet diaut benefices should be held together, and that only ‘ 0 ,, 4 ti0e of ten miles from the one church to the other. I i t ler to prevent any accumulation of cathedral preferment, e h ja,s enacted that no more than one cathedral preferment o , i uld be held at the same time with one benefice. The areLexoeption made to this regulation was in the case of d Iver meac ons, who had very arduous duties to perform, a . n n,,,, 1 ,,,,,! often very inadequately paid. Another restriction ! the holding of two livings within ten miles was, that e l e t. benefice should be of more than 500/. per annum Iviltiteh value. There were some provisions in the Bill Pari s hn some degree softened these restrictions. In not sus` w ith a small population, in which the funds were gasffieient for the maintenance of a Clergyman, a union ex.treinly desirable and consequently the Bill contained Th e r r b _ v ision to facilitate the union of contiguous parishes. expetlieviere some cases in which a dissolutio n of unions was isi uti.

The Bill provided for the due administration of divine service during the absence of the incumbent. f'urther powers were given to the Bishops in cases of incapacity. It was very de sirable that the Bishop should have the power to enforce in some instances, and to dispense with in others, two full ser vices every week, and the present Bill would carry that o bj ect into Oka. There were also two provisions, giving to the Bishop the appointment of the etipends to curates, and enact ing that no spiritual person should serve more than two churches or two chapels, or one church and one chapel, in one day—provisions which would, he trusted, do away with practices that were calculated to bring reproach upon the Church. By the present Bill the same powers were conferred over benefices that were under seques tration, as in all other cases of non-residence or plurality, and care had been taken to prevent any evasion of the effect of the measure ; and it was proposed that all sequestrations under that Act should have priority over all others. I n comm i ttee any faults mi g ht b e reme died. Upon the whole, however, he felt convinced that it was a measure calculated to do much towards promoting the efficiency of the Established Church, and to wards doing away with the evils of pluralities and non-resi dence.—( Hear, hear.) In conclusion he begged leave to move that the Bill be now read a second time. Lord ASHBURTON said it was impossible to read the proposed measure without seeing that it was extremely strin gent upon the great body of the clergy : he alluded especially to the provisions with regard to the appointment of curates and the control of the bishops over the clergy : all of which might be extremely proper. He did not rise for the purpose of exciting any discussion upon the subject, but only to observe —and the Right Rev. Prelate would himself admit the justice of the proposition—that it was but fair that that large body so materially affected by the Bill, should be afforded full time to learn in what manner that House was about to deal with them. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY must beg leave to say, in reference to the stringency of the Bill, that, in com parison with the law as at present existing, and by that it must be judged of, it was by no means severe upon the clergy; for all the most stringent clauses in his Bill were to be found also in the old Bill, which was at the present time the law of the land. Lord ASHBURTON said, when it was considered that the Bill would affect the interests of so many persons it was only justice to afford them every opportunity of becoming ac quainted with the nature of the proposed alteration. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY agreed with the Noble Lord as far as the object could be effected; but it was almost impossible to attain it. The Bishop of LONDON said that the Bill did appear more stringent than it really was ; for he begged leave to in form their Lordships that in the most stringent parts of the measure there was no departure from the present law. By the present Bill the clergy should not be called upon for one far thing more than they were now liable to pay. Lord ASHBURTON had alluded rather to the provision which enabled the Bishop to force non-resident incumbents to employ curates. The Bishop of LONDON believed the only case in which there was a difference between the two measures was in the provision which gave to the Bishops the power over unbene ficed which they ;now only possessed over beneficed clergy men. He agreed with the Noble Lord that every opportunity should be afforded to the Clergy of becoming acquainted with the measure, and he believed the whole Bill had been printed in one of the most popular morning papers. He begged to express his firmest conviction that if the measure, or some other equivalent to it in its provisions, were not carried through Parliament in the course of the present session, the most serious injury to the Church would ensue.—( Hear.) Lord ASHBURTON had not risen for the purpose of ex citing any discussion upon the present occasion, but merely to suggest the necessity of affording the Clergy the means of ac quiring the fullest information upon the subject. The Bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Friday seinnight. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at a quarter past seven. THE MARKETS. (From the New London Price Current of last night.) SUGAR.-The British Plantation Sugar Market throughout last week was exceedingly brisk, the grocers and refiners pur chasing very freely ; th e sa l es amounte d to 3 , 3 00 hhd s . an d trs., at prices is. above those of previous rates ; there is a new and interesting feature in the Market, 200 hhds. have been taken for exportation at 38s. a 395. for the American markets. There is much disposition evinced on the part of the town and country dealers to purchase, they as well as the refiners being much in want of Sugars. The stock of West India Sugars is now 11,020 hhds. and trs., being 812 less than last year. The stock of Mauritius is now 94,013 bags, which is 14,442 less than last year.

The show of West India Sugars to-day was very small, and the assortment indifferent, which circumstances, together with the public sales of Mauri tius caused the demand to be very moderate, and confined to 500 hhds. and trs. at prices 6d. higher than Friday. The weekly deliveries at length exceed those of last year, which gives the holders much confidence. The public sale this after noon of 136 hbds. new Barbadoes went off very briskly at 655. a 68s. 6d., being 6d. a Is. higher; the greater advance is on the low qualities. There has been a very brisk demand from the grocers for Refined goods of fine quality, just above and below the standard, for which advanced prices were paid. The shipping qualities have advanced 6d. per cwt. ; 435. paid for fine Crushed, and at that price the inquiries were considerable, but, owing to the goods for immediate delivery being extremely scarce, not much was done ; for goods to be delivered in three weeks, the refiners are asking 84s. a 855., long price, or 435. a 435. 6d. on board; small parcels of Dutch Crushed have been sold at 41s. 6d. The prices this day have again advanced, Lumps to pass the standard sold at 84s. 6d. long price, or 435. 6d. on board.

When Bacon's equestrian statue of William was erected, a few years ago, in St. James's-square, an indivi dual, who was then intimate with an ultra Orange Peer, got on the pedestal and commenced decorating the statue with a profusion of orange. coloured ribbons, until his progress was interrupted by the proper authorities, who obliged him to dis mount and take himself off with his laurel and ribbons : the folly has not been since repeated. By letters from Tarsus we learn that the cotton crop, which in 1834 had been in the province of Adana to the extent of 37,000 bales, of the weight of 80 to 100 ocques each, had not exceeded last year more than two-thirds of that quantity, in consequence of the excessive heat of the summer, and the great drought that had prevailed during a period of six conse cutive months. It appears that the only French house esta blished at Tarsus, and which had been there during a period of eight years, was about to quit it for the purpose of forming sn establishment at Beyrout, which it was considered would be an almost abandonment, so far as Europeans were concerned, of the trade of the former place. The Prussian commercial league of 11,800 square miles (German) of superficies, and 36 millions of inhabitants, which Germany possesses, the Customs' union now embraces a superficies of 8,200 square miles, and 25 millions of inhabi tants.—Journal de Frankfort. At the Aberdeen Synod there was a much larger at tendance of country members than usual, and the consequence was, that the moderate party carried all before them. The decision in regard to Presbyterial Visitations, adopted at last meeting of Synod, was overturned by a majority of 47 to 18; and the proposed alteration in the mode of electing Elders was, by the same majority, and at the same time, condemned. The moderate party, now that they have got uppermost, are resolved to maintain their position ; and, in order the more effectually to do so, they have appointed the next meeting of the Synod to take place at Banff. Of course, this is to render attendance more inconvenient to the Ministers and Elders of Aberdeen, by whose numbers the moderates think they have hitherto been swamped.—Aberdeen Herald. A lamentable occurrence took place at Billericay on Sunday, the 10th inst. A person, to whose care two children about two years old were entrusted to nurse, having left her house to speak to her sister who lives close by, on her return found both the children enveloped in flames. One of the little sufferers died in the course of the day, and the other is not likely long to survive.—Essex Herald. The Caroline brig sailed on Tuesday afternoon from this port for Quebec : she is the first vessel this season, and had only eight passengers. The early period of the season, together with the present prosperous condition of the artizans and labourers in the native country, may be assigned as the apparent reasons for the limited number sf emigrants in the Caroline.—Berwick Advertiser. _ _ We find the following announcement in the Dublin Pilot of Friday ; we know not whence the writer derives its authority, and we give it without placing much credence in it :—" Lady Mary Talbot, daughter of the Earl of Shrews bury, is about being united to the King of Naples." The export of iron ore, slate, and copper ore, from the port of Ulverstone, is, at this moment, unprecedeutedly great. A boy in the employ of Mr. S. Dark, of West La vington, whilst engaged in ploughing last week, by some means fell, and the plough being dragged over him, injured him so severely as to occasion his death. English cookery is by no means agreeable, as every body is obliged to bite and chew twice as much as in France, Italy, and Germany, which is trying enough to young teeth, but utter destruction to the old masticators.— Von Roomer. On Tuesday night a meeting of the inhabitants of Edinburgh was held in the Cowgate Chapel, for the purpose of petitioning Parliament for the entire and immediate aboli tion of the Annuity Tax ; and also to take into consideration the proceedings of the Edinburgh clergy, in regard to the im prisonment of Councillor Russell and Mr. Chapman. There are large quantities of beef in joints and live sheep imported into this country, and landed at the metropo litan wharfs constantly from Scotland, notwithstanding which beef and mutton continue to rise in price. In addition to this supply of food the importation of pork and butter from Ireland is very great. Scotland and Ireland also furnish our fish markets with abundance of the best fresh salmon, of prime quality, when in season. THE FRENCH MURDERERS.—At the meeting of the Phrenological Society, held on M on d ay even i ng , Dr.-El liotson, the President, gave an account of his examination of casts of the sculls of Fieschi, Lacenaire, A vril, and David, who have lately been executed in France, under circumstances of particular notoriety. The head of Fieschi was described of a middling size, the forehead being poor and retreating, the co. ronal surface sloping and bad, whilst the organs of firmness, self-esteem, and love of approbation, were very large, and cau tiousness small. In D av id, the forehead was large, but rather retiring, and the organs of veneration, firmness, secretiveness , and the l ove of approbation, were enormous. Laccnaire pos sessed a forehead distinguished for every intellectual qu ality, but the a n i ma l feelings were large ; he was describe d as a man of high classical an d intellectual attainments and literary _ ac quirements, an d to h ave reasone d hi mse lf t o the commission o f suicide. I n A vr il, the forehead was low, exhib itin g a wretc hed ,intellect and a low scale of moral feeling, quite inaacyceordmauneciel with all his previous habits. These descriptionsg isatisfaction to the members present, amor whom were some of the most distinghished phrenologists o the metropolis. FROM LAST NIGHT'S ADMIRALTY, APRIL 1 4 (s.

The Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, who came to town to attend the meeting of Peers at Apsley House, left Mivart's Hotel for his villa at Richmond Hill. His Lordship seldom visits his residence Mount Edgcumbe, near Devonport, where the chief portion of his estates are situated. A con siderable part of the town of Stonehouse, between Lime house, Plymouth-dock, and Davenport belongs to his Lordship. Lord and Lady Valletort and family have arrived at Mouut Edgcumbe from Geneva. A few days ago, several houses were totally con sumed by fire, at Sommaing, near Cambray, in the North of France, through the vengeance of a jealous wife. The spouse Of a worthy weaver of cambrics, having become suspicious of the fidelity of her husband, determined to put an end to his wanderings by involving him and herself in one common de struction. With this intention, she set fire to a ciu laity of straw in the garret of their dwelling, and then went down to the cellar and turned the key upon the poor weaver, who was busily employed at his loom. He was soon afterwards alarmed by cries of fire ; but finding the door fastened, he called to his wife to open it; she, however, remained industriously turning I:er spinning-wheel, and replied—" No, no! broil, broil, you gay deceiver ! We will both be broiled together !" The wea ver, however, succeeded in bursting open the door, and escaped with his tender wife, just as the roof was about to fall in upon them, and broil them to a cinder. The woman is said to be c•ut of her mind. BREAD, GIN, AND MUSIC.-oa. Saturday evening a new baker's shop was opened in the New-cut, Lambeth. A full band of music was in attendance, and each of the customers eras promised a glass of something comfortable. Whether the quality of the bread or the blue ruin were predominant is not known, but from the time of opening (five o'clock) up to half past ten, the extraordinary number of 1,890 four-pound loaves were disposed of. It is a positive fact, that during the evening such a dense crowd of persons assembled in front of the house, as to render the road next to impassable. At some tavern brawl which took place near Hurlet, on Saturday week, a man was so much injured, as to endanger Ids life. Several persons implicated in the affray arc in cus tody.—Scots Times. A great number of poor men, accompanied by their v.ives and families,. have passed through this city, during the Fast week, from various parts of the county, on their way to Yarmouth, to embark ft.;: America. Three ships have sailed from Yarmouth, and one from Lynn, all full of these poor emigrants.—Norfolk Chronicle. The bibliographical catalogue, pt,,.. fur the six months just expired, is more volumin.l'us than ever t b Nisbed at Le: psig , 690 librarians announee 3,941 works on sale, and 457 ready to go to press. In classing the works non sale, according to the places where they were printed, Northern Germany bag fur nished 2,149, and Southern Germany, 1,292. Amongst the aates of Northern Germany, Prussia has been the m nst ro p e.uctive. Berlin alone has added 406 names to the c atalogue. —Journal dc Frankfort. BA THOS.—The following affec tin g advertisenaent ig from a London newspaper :—" If th is should meet the eye Of Emma D—, who absented herself last Wednesday' from her father's house, she is implored to return, when she will be re ceived with undiminished affection by her almost heart-broken parents.

Time, however, brought the intelligence that the two culprits had had their sentence miti gated, and, as a matter of course, the " flying stationer" fled —Carlisle Journal. _ _ The present mackarel season, in spite of its early commencement, has been, in point of fact, as back ward as any that have taken place for many years past. Such a constant succession of stormy weather has been seldom known, added to which the extreme cold and sharp frosts seems to have kept the fish back. The boats have been to sea during the present week, but the catch has been very short—the boats averagin., but a small number each. The fullest and best part of the season, both for fish and fishermen, is now approaching, and it is to be hoped it will prove productive to the hands engaged in it.—Btighton Gazette. SCOTCH LOTTERIES.—The Crown Counsel have issued a Circular throughout the country declaratory of the il legality of disposing of merchandise by lottery. On Sunday evening, about eight o'clock, a despe rate attack was made on the Police by the ruffians about Vauxhall-road. The fire-bell had to be rung, and this method of extending alarm again succeeded, for the Police attended in such force that nine of the rioters were captured, and the rest dispersed. Four of the Police constables have been seri ously injured. —Liverpool Albion. The late inclement weather has occasioned great de struction of lambs on the Welsh Hills, in Radnorshire, Meri onethshire, Carnarvonshire, and Cardiganshire—some farmers have lost from two to three hundred. On Friday, the Ist instant, it snowed the greater portion of the day, and in some parts of the country, the snow was very deep. The game, particularly hares, must have suffered severely from the con tinued cold weather. , In the post mortent examination of the body of General Baron Strauch, who died lately at Vienna, a ball was found which this superior officer had received 30 years before in the wars of the empire. The Town Council of Bath have decided on ad mitting the public to their discussions. DRUNKENNESS.—On Sunday afternoon a man, named Samuel Stockwell, who had for some time been work ing on the Birmingham railroad at Kensal-green, while drink ing with some of his companions at the William the Fourth palichouse, in that village, for a wager drank off half a pint of rum at a draft. After sitting for a few minutes he sud denly fell off his seat in a state of insensibility, and expired in less than half an hour afterwards. Tartar, in its impure form, as deposit from wine, must have been known at a very early period. "It is called tartar," says Paracelsus, " because it produces oil, water, tincture, and salt, which burns the patient as hell does." The report of the intended visit of his Royal High ness the Prince of Orange to this country, mentioned in the Hague Journals, we are enabled to confirm, preparations being now making for the Prince's arrival. His Royal Highness's visit to this country is stated to be unconnected with politics, and arises from a wish of placing two of his sons (Prince Alexander and Prince William Frederick are named) at one of the British Universities to finish their education. Such an object the Prince contemplated last year, but circumstances prevented his leaving Holland. Last month there died, near Douay, a youth aged 14, who measured six feet nine inches English. The mail coach between Newcastle and Carlisle was discontinued on the sth instant, and the post is now co veyed in a gig. THE TEA TRADE, MONDAY.—The deliveries last week amounted to rather above 507,0001 b. The im ports from Canton were 20,760 chests, 5,083 half-chests, 660 quarter chests, and 644 boxes of tea. The private trade sales are proceeding with much activity. The Tweed Fishing Company have during the last and present week imported a large supply of ice from Bergen ; which, in consequence of the mildness of the winter, they were unable to obtain as formerly at our own doors. SOUTH WARWICKSHIRE CONSERVATIVE As soclivrtox.—The Warwick Advertiser in allusion to the speeches which were delivered at the meeting, recommends to its readers " a studious perusal of the various eloquent speeches, more especially those from the hallowed lips of Reverend Divines, whereby they may learn that to misrepre sent facts, to impute evil motives, to abuse the chosen Minis ters of the King , and to invoke the God of Heaven, while en gaged in Bacchanalian indulgences, is not only morally cor rect, but the best evidence of sincere devotion to the Church, to the Sovereign, his Crown and dignity,' and to the great interests of the State ; and that the fiery spirit of political animosity is strictly consistent with the lowliness of heart, the universal charity, and the meekness of mind, inspired by the influence of true Christian piety !"
