The publication of Tun SUN NEWSPAPER commenced lids day at 20 minutes past Three o' Clod. . ---) ~4 j),~ , -M ~~ r _~~ LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 1836. The Report of the Committee appointed by the Commons, to draw up reasons of dissent from the Lords' Amendments on the Irish Corporation Bill, was brought up last night, and presented to the House by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the Chair man of the Committee. The " Reasons" were ap proved of, and transmitted to the Lords in the usual way, by whom they are to be taken into consideration on Friday next. Why so distant a day has been se lected we pretend not to know. Do their Lordships hope that the Chapter of Accidents may turn up some thing favourable to their v iews—something that may save them from the bitter cup prepared for them ? They need not deceive themselves with any such vain hope. They had better make up their minds at once to the fate they have brought upon them selves by their blind and reckless folly. The " Reasons" are drawn up in a firm, and, at the same time, a respectful spirit. The Commons speak the language which it becomes the Representatives of a free people, to speak on a subject which involves the rights and privileges of the nation. They point out the total alteration which has been made, both in the principle and title of the Bill, which, from being a measure for the reform and preservation of the Municipal Institutions of Ireland, has been changed by the Lords into one for their complete abolition—a change in which it is impossible for them to concur. The following is the concluding passage of this docu ment, which we are sure will be read with pleasure by all who wish to see the Lords deprived of everything in the shape of a reason for persisting in the course they have commenced. " The Commons have felt it to be incumbent upon them to state the foregoing reasons for their disagreement to the Bill as now amended. The Commons have consented to confine the establishment of Town Councils to twelve con siderable cities and towns, whose wealth and importance rendered them suited to such a system of local government. The Commons have further provided for the local govern ment of 20 cities of lesser consideration, by applying to them the local enactments alluded to in the amendments of the Lords. The Commons have excluded from the amended portion of the Bill cities in which the necessity for legislative interference, is less apparent. The Com mons have endeavoured to maintain a good understanding between the two Houses, by not insisting upon many provi sions contained in the Bill as originally passed. The amend ments from which the Commons have still felt it their duty to withhold their concurrence, are such as appeared wholly irreconcileable with the principles of the Bill, and had no re ference to the principles adopted in reforming the Corpora tions of Great Britain. From those leading principles the Commons think it unexpedient, unwise, and unjust, to de part. In an address carried by both Houses, to the foot of the Throne, a determination was expressed to preserve invio late the Legislative Union, but at the same time to remove all just causes of complaint, and promote all well-considered measures. Where the present Corporations are to be continued, the Commons feel that a just cause of complaint would remain unremoved ; and if the Bill is permitted to become law, it would extinguish all traces of those Munici pal Corporations which have subsisted fiir six centuries, and which at no one former period, even during internal commo tion and civil war, it was ever proposed to abolish. The Com mons do not suppose that enactments of such an unprece dented nature, would come within the description of a well considered measure of improvement, which Parliament felt inclined to adopt." Here we see no giving way—no flinching in matters of principle, while at the same time there is displayed an earnest and sincere desire to maintain by conciliatory proceedings that harmony between the two branches of the Legislature which is absolutely essential to the well-being of the State. In what spirit the Lords may now act remains to be seen. If report says true, there is discord in the camp. The Tory leaders in the respective Houses, it is reported, are not altogether on the best of terms. Sir ROBERT called the glorious EIGHTY-SIX a " great and decisive majority." This has given mortal offence. The Right Hon. Baronet is accused of indifference, lukewarmness, and so forth. The country will not be sorry to see this want of union--it bodes good. Our readers will find, in another column, the re port of the Committee on Harbours of Refuge, which was received by the House of Commons during the sittings of Thursday. To foreigners the statements which it contains may well appear incredible ; for how is it possible to reconcile our boasted extermination of pirates—our anxiety for the maintenance of a maritime empire—our laws- for the preservation of wrecks and all property cast away at sea—our inventions for ren dering assistance to distressed mariners—with the ex istence of some hundreds of miles of coast badly lighted, and without a single harbour in which vessels in distress could at all times ride in safety ? Who, without such an admission on the part of a Committee of thz House of Commons, could believe that in 1836 —nearly two hundred years after England had asserted her supremacy on the waves—the entire coast from the Frith of Forth to the mouth of the Thames might be pointed at as destitute of a single harbour of re fuge ? Such culpable indifference to the preservation of the lives and properties of a class of men who con stitute the right arm of England, is as inconsistent with every principle of justice, as it is irreconcileable with the liberal and generous policy of Great Britain. The damage sustained on the coast of England and Scotland from bad harbours, and a deficiency of lights, is incredible. In the House of Commons on Thursday last, Mr. CUTLAR FERGUSSON pre sented a petition from the Landowners and Commis sioners of Supply of the Stewartry, and from the merchants, ship-owners, and mariners of the Port of Kirkcudbright, complaining of the want of Light houses on the Scottish side of the Solway Frith. Though the shore was the most rocky and dangerous in Great Britain, there was not a single light to guide the distressed mariner in his perilous course. For twenty-five years had the petitioners vainly petitioned the Commissioners of Northern Lights to erect a Light-house on e the Isle of Little Ross ; nor was it before witnessing a number of shipwrecks, that they deemed it imperative upon them to submit these facts to the consideration of Parliament. During the last year four vessels with the greater part of their crews perished ; and during the last thirty years no fewer than sixty-six vessels suffered a similarly miserable fate This fearful destruction of life and property might have been saved by an outlay of 1,4001. ; but such was the utter indifference of the Commissioners, the Admiralty, and even of Parliament, that it was never proposed to enquire whether the recurrence of such dreadful catastrophes was worth a moment's notice. Now, had it been reported to the Admiralty that a pirate had captured the crew of a British mer chantman, we should hear of war-vessels being fitted out to scour the seas in quest of him ; nor would the expenditure of twenty thousand pounds be thought too high a price for ridding our maritime empire of such a monster ; and yet what pirate ever caused such a loss of life and property as the dark, rocky coast of, the Solway Frith ? Our bad harbours, and our badly lighted coasts, are worse than all the Algerine rovers that ever infested the seas ; and yet Parliament can hardly be persuaded to take cognizance of the evil with a view to remedy it. We see thousands of pounds annually lost within sight of our shores—every tempest strews our beaches with the bodies of our brave mariners, and yet, because the evil occurs at home—perhaps be cause the bodies of the drowned 'sailors not being black do not awaken our sympathies—we quiet our con sciences by reflecting that we gave directions for the employment of life-boats in the future event of such • calamities Parliament cannot, without culpable neglect of duty, remain any longer indifferent to the state of the har bour and coast lights of the United Kingdom. The Legislature must resume those functions, to the efficient discharge of which the Trinity-house Board, the Com missioners of Northern Lights, and the Admiralty have all proved themselves incompetent. The country is indebted to the Hon. Member for Middlesex for bring ing this question fairly under the notice of Parliament. He was the first to expose the positive inutility of the Trinity-house Authorities, and the utter incompetence of the legal practitioners, who hold, what in their case, may very properly be termed the sinecure appointments of Commissioners of Northern Lights. Mr. C UTL AR FERGUssoN now comes to the assistance of Mr. H um E, and provided there be no compromise entered into with the Admiralty, we may soon expect to see measures adopted for the effectual protection of the lives and properties of merchants and mariners. The Paris Papers of Thursday received this morn ing, contain an admirable speech delivered by the Pre sident of the Council, in answer to M. LAFITTE'S attack on the revolution of 1830. At that: period M. LA FITTE was a violent revolutionist ; he subsequently was for a short time a Member of the Government . ; but so dissatisfied has he become of late with the state of public affairs, that on Tuesday last he imitated M. ODILLON BA RROT, by imploring pardon of God and his country, for having assisted in the ex pulsion of CHARLES X. Such an invocation of for giveness was well calculated to rouse the President of FRENCH FUNDS.—PARIS, JUNE 16. Five per Cents., 108 f. 25c; 3.5 c. 40c. Four and a Half ner Cents. 104 f. SOc.

'THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1836. the Council. In his reply to M. LAFITTE, he began by asserting that the condition of France was prospe rous, and that that prosperity was the result of mea sures adopted by the Government in opposition to the will of those who assailed it. He proceeded in sub stance as follows : " It was contended that the finances of the country were in deficit—that word had a magic power of throwing the country into alarm. He would now speak on this point, and he would also reply to those who demanded pardon of God and their country for having taken part in the revo lution of 1830—(Hear, hear)—and to those who expressed a wish that such a revolution had never taken place. He admitted that revolutions were sometimes expensive to the country. Previously to the revolution of 1789, the Budget amounted to five hundred millions, and afterwards to upwards of seven hundred millions ; under the Government of the restoration it had been still further augmented. Were revolutions to be estimated merely by the sums which they cost they would never take place at all ; but was no account to be taken of the development given to the institutions and the liberties of a country ? He would, however, proceed to establish the fact that the present Government was infinitely less expensive to the country than that of the restoration. The Budget of 1829 bad been regulated at the sum of one milliard twenty-four millions, and all the results obtained by that Budget had been given by the Budget of 1836 for one milliard twenty-two millions, to say nothing of the improvements in canal and river navigation, the discharge of the arrears of the War Department, &c. As to the one hundred and five millions which M. Berryer on the preceding day pretended to have found in excess above the Budget of 1829, he (the Minister) could only say that the Hon. De puty's calculation was altogether erroneous. He admitted that the country paid thirty-nine millions less on the public debt, 'and twenty-nine millions less on the civil list, the peer age, the life annuities, the Royal military household, the suppression of the Swiss regiments, the Royal Guards, &c.; but it was necessary to examine what had become of the one hundred and five millions which the country had no longer to pay. In the first place, it was true that the public debt had diminished by thirty-nine millions ; but, on the other hand, it had been augmented by forty-four millions, a portion of which had been employed to liquidate the debts of the Restoration. Finally the Government of the Re storation had left a deficit of 4,644,000 francs on the pension fund, besides the expenses of canals which had been commenced. It thus appeared that of the 105,000,000 in question, 14,000,600 were to be placed to the account of the late Government. The remaining 80,000,000 had effected improvements in a variety of departments, such as the bridges and highways, public instruction, the tele graphs, National Guards, the arts, agriculture, &c. It had been objected that the Revolution of 1830 had been expensive to the country. The same observation applied to all revolutions, because they centralised the expenses of the country, because the augmentation of production con sequent upon a revolution led to an increase of expenditure, and, lastly, because revolutions generally required to be defended. Such had not been the case with the Restora tion, but that Government had purchased foreign protec tion with its millions. The Revolution of 1820 had not been attacked, and therefore had not been obliged to de fend itself ; but the precautions which it had been found expedient to adopt had led to demands for extraordinary credits. The Revolution of 1820 was perhaps the only Revolution in the world which had led to no augmentation of the Budget, whilst at the same time it presented im provements in the different branches of the public service to the amount of 80,000,000 and 5.5,000 additional men under arms. In 1829 there had been two hundred millions of Stock ; there were at present not more than one hun dred and ninety millions ; thus the public debt had been diminished." M. BERRYER followed M. Mints, and in a speech of (great ability, defended the Governments of Louis XVIII. and CHARLES X. from the financial attacks made upon them by the President of the Council. He, however, admitted that the present Government had been unjustly censured by the Ultra• Republican party, for that it had done a great deal to improve the coun try. This speech brought the general discussion on the Budget to a close, and the Chamber proceeded to vote the articles in detail. The articles from Ito 39 both inclusive, were then voted wit!iout an amendment. The Chamber of Deputies met early on Thursday, when several additional chapters of the Budget were voted without opposition. The French Princes have been invited to spend a few days at the Bavarian Court. His Majesty the KING wrote them a letter of invitation, which was promptly accepted. The latest accounts from Vienna state that their Royal Highnesszs were about to set out for Munich. PARIS, JUNE 15.-( Private Correspondence of the Megsa ger.)—MADßlD, JUNE 6.—The scarcity of money is so severely felt, that unless some remedy is speedily found, it will be im possible to provide for the expenses of the war, and of other branches of the public service. For some days past the trea sury is loaded with Bills of Exchange, accepted by the Gene rals of the Army of the North of Catalonia, and all are pro tested for want of funds. There arc already to the amount of 18 millions of reals, aid by the end,of the month there will be far above 40 millions, without reckoning all that is owing to the contractors for provisions and clothing. General Cordova, on his part, will not return to the army without taking sufficient money to satisfy the most urgent de mands, but it seems that as no more than eight millions of reals can be given him, which it will be necessary to take from the several branches of the service at Madrid, it will be very dif ficult to remedy this state of things without a foreign loan, for the coffers of the provinces are empty, and the customs, the duties on salt and tobacco, produce nothing, in consequence-of the enormous extent of smuggling in every quarter. The re= signation tendered by General Mina greatly distresses the Ministers, as they have nobody to take his place in Catalonia. The ground of Mina's discontent is the speech delivered by M. Isturiz in the Cortes, on occasion of the death of the mother of Carbrera. If Mina cannot be pacified, General Manso will be sent to Catalonia. General Cordova is much courted by the grandees, the chief officers of State, and the inferior officers of the army ; the Queen treats him with the highest distinction, and seems inclined to create him a grandee of Spain, by the title of Duke of Arlaban. What would be done for him if he should ever have his day of Almanza or of Marengo ? The Ministry, alarmed at the increase of the bands in Aragon, has just sent out a reinforcement of 3,000 men to General Ratten ; 3,000 men from the army of reserve are under orders for the same destination, so that that General may form a division of 10,000 men, with which he will be able to clear the country of the hordes of brigands who lay waste everything with fire and sword. . The accounts from the provinces are pretty good; there is everywhere a desire for peace, order and good Government, without revolution and without insurrection. If the elections should be favourable to the Ministry, Isturiz and Galiano may maintain their ground. The old Ministers participate in the general confidence. M. Martinez de la Rosa has resumed his literary pursuits, and is at this moment employed in bringing on the stage his play of Alen Humeya. Count Torreno drives about Madrid in a magnificent equipage, and keeps a splendid establishment. As for M. Mendizabal, he frequents the coffee houses and the promenades, explaining his programme, and all that be intended to do, with the vote of confidence. You see that there is nothing very threatening in all this ; the prospect of the future is good, but we must have money, and good elections.—Messager, June 16.

Mr. Burford has adopted the attractive subject of the Lago Maggiore for his now panoramic painting. He has selected with great judgment a point of view which has enabled him to include in the picture the Isola Bella, that extraordinary and fascinating object of art and nature com bined, as well as the rest of the Borromian Islands, and an extensive view of the lake and surrounding mountain scenery. A more luxuriant landscape can scarcely be conceived, and it is impossible not to admit, that the powers of paint have seldom been more successfully em ployed than in depicting it. The Isola Bella, which forms the most prominent feature in the painting, is in itself an object of great beauty, and well adapted for pictoral repre sentation, from the admixture it presents of architectural and ornamental gardening. The panorama opens to the public this day. PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS' last night the hearing of the evidence on the Stafford Disfranchisement Bill was resumed. The Duke of Richmond consented to postpone his motion res pecting the Post-Office Department. A report was pre sented from the Library Committee stating that the libra rian had received nearly two thousand volumes presented by the French Chamber of Peers to the House of Lords. The Commons' Amendments to the Ecclesiastical Leases Bill were agreed to. The Municipal Act Amendment Bill was passed. A " Conference" took place between the two Houses, at which the Commons, headed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, stated their reasons for not agreeing to the " amendments" made by the Lords in the " Act for the Regulation of Boroughs Corporate in Ireland." It was agreed that the subject should be taken into consideration on Friday next. In the COMMONS', among the petitions were several from Essex, Somersetshire, &c. for the abolition of church rates. Mr. Wilks intimated his intention not to suffer the session to pass, without an attempt to redress the g rievances com plained of by the petitioners. A petition f rom three mari time East India Captains, complaining that compensation had been withheld from them, contrary to the Act re cently passed, led Sir J. C. Hobhouse to state that the petitioners were not entitled to the compensation which they claimed. The reasons why the Commons refused to agree to the Lords' " amendments " to the Irish Municipal Reform Bill, were reported at the bar. Sir R. Peel protested against the reasons of the managers, and proceeded to the Upper House. The House then pro ceeded with the further consideration of the Report of the Engl'sh Tithe Bill. Some alterations were pro posed, and the Report was ordered to be taken into consideration again on Monday next. The Report on the Registration of Births' Bill was received. The Church of England Bill was read a second time. The House then went into Committee on the Registration of Voters Bill. Several amendments were moved; but, on a division, they were all negatived, and the clauses, up to the 67th, were agreed to. The Cessio Bonorum ( Scotland) Bill was passed. The Grand Juries (Ireland) Bill and the Charitable Trustees Bill were severally read a second time, after which the House adjourned. The Secretary of State . has rejected a second ap plication from Boston for borough Sessions, and finally decided that the town business shall be transacted at the Division Ses sions, which are quarterly held in Boston. --Stanford Mer cury of Friday. On Monday evening a public meeting was held in Blackburn, to enter into a subscription in aid of the fund opened in London, to defray the expenses incurred by Mr. O'Connell in defending his seat for Dublin. WRITING AND DRAWING.-- We have been greatly delighted with the contents of a portfolio filled with specimens of the most beautiful penmanship, and a great number of very fairly-executed drawings, by Mr. Gray, Writing and Drawing Master, of Upper Seymour-street, 'Euston-square. Rarely indeed do works of this kind repay the at or the amateur for the time and trouble expended in PtEducing them ; and therefore we would not recommend any person, who is obliged to look to the exercise of his pen and pencil for subsistence, to waste a moment upon them longer than may be necessary to establish a high professional reputation. For this purpose Mr. Gray has done enough : he has henceforth only to make the public acquainted with his abilities to obtain an extensive and influential patronage. As a writing master he stands, in our opinion, without a rival. VAUXHALL GARDENS.—WATERLOO FETE.— These beautiful Gardens were splendidly illuminated last night in commemoration of the victory of Waterloo, and, notwith standing the unfavourable state of the weather, the attendance, though select, was numerous. Notwithstanding an announce ment which appeared in front of the saloon, stating the weather necessarily prevented a great part of the illumination, we do not remember to have seen a more brilliant display. The singing was of a very superior order, and the entertainments generally afforded universal satisfaction. The feats on the tight rope by Monsieur Javelie are not exaggerated in the bill; they are indeed unrivalled. The " Terrific descent" is fright fully astonishing, and requires some nerve even to behold it. The band of the Coldstream Guards, under the able direction of Mr. Godfrey, proved very effective. Amongst other fashionables who visited the Gardens, we observed the Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence and party, the Marchioness of Tavi stock with a large party, Col. Leicester Stanhope and party, S. Whitbread, Esq., &c. The bandage was removed yesterday for a short time from the eyes of the Duke of Sussex, and they appeared in as favourable a condition as could possibly be expected. The general health of his Royal Highness is very good, and his spirits are excellent. Yesterday evening his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange, accompanied by his sons and Prince George of Cambridge, visited Newgate, through which the royal visitors were shown by Mr. Sheriff Salomons, and they expressed themselves much pleased at the arrangements made for the comfort of the prisoners. They then entered the New Court and remained for some time, and paid great attention to the causes; and, singularly enough, one of the Prince's subjects was tried in his presence. He was found guilty, but the nature of the offence admitted of a lenient sentence being passed on him, which appeared to give his Royal Highness much satisfaetion. It is said that, should the Lords persist in opposing the Irish Municipal Corporation Bill, and other measures pro posed by the other House, after mature deliberation by the latter, that it is the intention of the House orCommons to ad dress his Majesty on the subject. The Commons stand high in public estimation, and will firmly maintain their position ; and, no doubt, the country will support their Representatives in maintaining their rights. The accounts of the barley crop, are, we regret to learn, from all parts, at present very discouraging. Persons who have stacks of old hay are very likely to realise prodigious profits; the appearance of the pre sent crop being deficient beyond all precedent. THE DIARY !—lt has been a subject of general remark that, notwithstanding the variety of works that have been published during the present season, there has not ap peared one that has excited an absolute sensation—not one that, to use an expressive French term " a fait fureur." Has the accomplishment of this desideratum been reserved for the Diary of a Desennuyee, which is announced for publication, and which has been presented by a distinguished personage to the publisher, under a promise of inviolable secrecy as to the authorship ?—a diary, said to be of so piquant, so sarcastic a nature, so abounding with all kinds of diplomatic, fashionable, and literary notorieties, that it is doubted whether, if even Lord Byron's far-famed journal were now to be brought to light, it would be likely to exhibit half of the attractions of the present volumes. —Court Journal. RECORDERS.—The following appointments have lave recently taken place :—For Penzance, Walter Coulson, Esq. ; Chester, John Cottingham, Esq. ; Oxford, Andrew Amos, Esq. ; Ludlow John Romilly, Esq. ; C armar th e n, John Wilson, Esq. ; Lichfield, Thomas Jervis, Esq. ; Great Yarmouth, Nat. Palmer, Esq. NORTON v. MELBOURNE.--Sir R. Peel remains one of the Jury in the suit pending between the Hon. C. Nor ton and Lord Melbourne, and has been summoned among the twenty-four who are to attend the Court on the trial, which is fixed for Wednesday next. It will, however, excite neither dis approbation nor surprise, considering the onerous and delicate duties which Sir R. Peel has to discharge if, on his name be ing called, he should not be in Court. THE PRINCE AND QUEEN OF PORTUGAL.--It is expected that the young Prince will shortly set off on an extended tour through the provinces. He will pay a visit to Oporto, Coimbra, &c., and will, no doubt, be well received wherever he goes, and the intended trip will have beneficial effects in a political point of view. The pregnancy of the Queen is confidently affirmed by persons of high authority, but it is certainly doubted, and that in quarters no less re. spectable. The Duke of Oldenbourg, attended by his suite, was present yesterday during part of the proceedings in the Central Criminal Court. An Opposition Paper, called the Dagligt Alle handa, has been suppressed at Stockholm, but was imme diately continued under another title, the Nytt (new) Dagligt Allehanda. Prince Puckler Muskau was expected at Smyrna by the middle of the present month, whence he is to proceed to Constantinople. Some wag has been hoaxing the Duke of New castle, by forwarding to him a petition, pretending to emanate from the Nottingham Operative Conservative Association, in support of the Lords' mutilations of the Irish Municipal Bill. _Nottingham Review. HOP INTELLIGENCE. CANTERBURY.— Since our last report the fly has made its appearance in many grounds, but without materially altering the favourable appearance of the plantations, KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) MYER V. PENNELL. Mr. ALEXANDER stated the case. It was an action brought by Mr. John Myer, a tailor, carrying on business in Old Bond street, to recover a sum of 2,5001., money lent to the defend ant under the following circumstances. There were several bill transactions to a large amount between Mr. Henry Jadis and Lord Foley, and the plaintiff was applied to, to discount the bills. The defendant, who was a discounter of bills, and proprietor of a shop in Duke-street, acted as the agent of Mr. Jadis, and applied to a Mr. Richardson, a bill-broker, through whose agency bills to the amount above stated were discounted by the plaintiff. The bills were dishonoured, and an action was brought, a few Terms ago, by Mr. Myer against Mr. Jadis, to recover the amount, and a verdict was had for the plaintiff, which was afterwards set aside. A second action was brought against the same party, but in consequence of the absence of a material witness, Mr. Richardson, the plaintiff was nonsuited. Since then it had been ascertained that the registered liabilities against Mr. Jadis amounted to 31,0001., and the liabilities against Lord Foley to not less than 311,000/., with very little chance of any available assets, and Mr. Myer had been again compelled to come before the Court to recover this sum from Mr. Pennell, to whom the money had been paid through Mr. Richardson. The question the Jury would have to try was—Whether Mr. Pennell was liable ? And he had no doubt he should be enabled to establish that fact, and obtain a verdict for his client. Mr. Richardson was then put in the box, and examined at considerable length as to his share in the negotiation for the discount of the bills in question. Mr. KELLY, for the defendant, contended that the evidence was not sufficient to establish the fact of the liability of the defendant. Lord DENniAN inquired if there was any further evidence on that point. Mr. ALEXANDER directed Mr. Jadis to be called, but he did not answer. Mr. ALEXANDER—I am afraid my Lord we cannot go further. Mr. Jadis has been called, but does not answer. Lord DENMAN—Then I am afraid Mr. Myer must be called. The plaintiff was accordingly nonsuited. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. THIS DAY. OLD COURT. RAPE.— Wm. Kinsey, a tailor, aged 32, was indicted for a rape on a little intelligent girl 9 years of age, named Martha Griffin. The facts of the case are totally unfit for publication. The trial was proceeding, and appeared likely to occupy the Court sometime, when our Reporter left. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)

We have Charlestown papers to the 13th of May. They state that emigration from Ireland to the United States com menced unusually early in the present season. One house in Dublin having a branch at Liverpool, had sent out, between the 4th of February and 31st of March, 2,100 passengers to New York, and other parts of the Union. MART FOR NEGROES.—We understand that a proposition is before the City Council relative to the establishment of a mart for the sale of negroes in this city. The north-east corner of the Exchange, or Custom House, one of the most fre quented parts of our city, is certainly rendered quite a nui sance, by being made the noisy and offensive theatre for this kind of traffic. The New Orleans Price Current has the following com mercial remarks : " The produce of the West is arriving freely, and the re moval of it to the stores and the shipping give to the different parts of the city a business-like aspect; but we:regret to say, that further than it relates to mere outward appearance, the business of the place has not improved. The transactions in produce are a little more extensive. Out-door affairs have met with some interruption from the frequent showers of rain. The Mississippi is within sixteen inches of high water mark, and rising." THE FUNDS.

The Pope, it is 'said, is about to recognise the pre sent Government of Portugal, insisting, however, upon a due provision for Don Miguel. The potato crop is almost certain to prove a total failure this season in many parts of this country. On a number of farms it has been found necessary to re-plant entire fields, as the first sown seeds had become quite rotten in the drills. The cause of this disease, and its cure, are involved in com plete mystery, and is a subject of such vast importance, in a national point of view, that it merits the investigation of men of the most scientific attainments, with the view of applying a remedy.—Ayr Observer. DUBLIN, JUNE 14.—The distress in Donegal has almost reached the extreme point. The scanty stock of provisions has been wholly consumed. In a very short time all will be reduced to the same frightful level, and for two months yet to come the entire population will be doomed to undergo the unmitigated pains and horrors of famine. The actual want which prevails among these poor people has made them nearly desperate. Last week a small vessel laden with potatoes was sent by Government to the harbour of Rutland, and immediately on its approach the people crowded the deck to obtain a share of the precious cargo. They had not patience to wait until the men could weigh out and distribute the potatoes. Fierce contentions broke out amongst the mul titude whilst the work was proceeding. It began at six o'clock on Sunday morning, and continued without allowing the sailors an hour to rest or take refreshment until eleven at night, and all that remained of the cargo was served on the following day, amid the same signs of anxiety and impatience. This supply afforded great relief for the time, but it was scarcely more than a week's provision. COURT CIRCULAR.
