The market was flat, and ail kinds except the better qualities of Egyptian and Sea Islands were id. per lb. lower.—Railway Shares continued active, and prices were considerably higher. In the Colonial Produce Markets the business done has been limited, and the quotations have varied only to a very trifling extent this week. The uncertainty as to the course which the Chancellor of the Exchequer may recommend in regard to the coffee duties quite suspends business in that article. Sugar . has kept up pretty well. Rice and Grain have been dull. Tea is held firmer. Talloiv steady. In the report of the Appendi x o f t h e Special Committee of the House of Assembly on the state of agriculture in Lower Canada, there is a paper on the climate ef Upper and Lower Canada, by Dr. Winder, librari an to the House of Assembly.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office ar3 —Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of rise—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on -which to proportion Preraium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation t• the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted m, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Avenge, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to tide, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years.

In the House of Lords, Lord CAMPBELL brought in a Bill to amend the law of criminal procedure. Lord Buouctram withdrew his County Court Exten sion Bill, and introduced an amended measure. Several petitions were presented, and their Lordships adjourned. In the Commons, Tho CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQDER announced that he should bring forward his budget on Monday, should the debate on the Papal aggression be finished, but not otherwise. The adjourned debate on Mr. DISRAELI'S motion was resumed by The Marquis of GRANBY, :who denied that the agri cultural distress was of a mere temporary character only, and attributed it entirely to free trade. Sir JAMES GRAHAM proved, from the poor-law re turns, that free trade had been of great benefit to the labouring classes, whose condition was now far better than it had been a few years ago. The real object of the motion was to re-impose corn taxes, and he warned the Free traders that it was their duty to be up and doing, for a serious conflict was at hand. The Right Hon. Baronet concluded with a high eulogium on Sir ROBERT PEEL, to whose doctrines he expressed his undeviating attachment. Mr. BOOKER was convinced that sooner or later they must return to a system of protection. Mr. LABOUCHERE said that the great mass of the population was in an improved and prosperous state, and quoted largely from several returns, for the purpose of showing that the shipping and ship-building interests had greatly benefited by the repeal of the navigation laws. Mr. CAYLEY denounced statistics as most deceptive things, contending that the alleged prosperity of the country was unreal, and warned the House against the results of the monetary pressure which he saw was impending. Mr. CARDWELL contended that our various branches of commerce were in an improved and improving con dition, and that the landowners would soon be enabled by their own exertions to retrieve their position. The proposal of the Protectionists really was to levy upon the masses of England a tax equal in amount to all the other taxes put together, and to give it to the owners of land. Colonel DUNNE supported the motion. Lord JOCELYN also supported the motion, "but ad mitted that if we were to return to protection, it must not be by a mere majority, but in compliance with the feeling of the nation, inasmuch as he was ready to admit the advantages which free trade had con'erred upon certain classes. Mr. B. COCHRANE conceived that the House was bound by the sequence of the paragraphs in her MA JESTY'S Speech to give the agriculturists the opportunity of being heard, and he should cordially support the motion. Mr. COBDEN said that this motion could have but one real object, that of Protection, under one name or another. Sir JAMES GRAHAM had exhausted the sub ject, but he would add, in answer to Mr. DISRAELI, that his assumption, that on the repeal of the corn law there had been a species of contract that cor❑ should keep at some certain price, was untenable. The only object and effort of the Free-traders had been to obtain corn at the natural price of the world; that object was gaittr d, they were sati,tied, and so was the country. He had had nothing to do with prophesying about prices. The real way to relieve the fainters was to reduce the C.'overnment expenditure, and discourage motions of this char , otcr, which were intended to delude the farmers, and prevent them from insisting upon proper terms with their landlords. Let them grant hisses, ilimieish game, and amend the law of transfer and dis traint—these measures would really benefit the farmers. He warned the Protectionists against aenin entering into a contest with the people, and he hoped the Irish Members would not be induced from a feeling of irrita tion to support the motion. Mr. MoortE would support the motion, in order to give a lesson to the Minister who had insulted the reli gion of the Irish people. Lord Joule RUSSELL thought the attempt to force forward such a motion as this, without distinctly de claring its meaning, or the intentions of those who ad vocated it, was a most dangerous step. The real but concealed object of the motion was the restoration of protection. Any attempt in that direction was full of danger, for the mass of the working classes had fully made up their minds as to the advactages they had gained by free trade, and took a deep and vital in terest in the question. It was most dangerous, as well as most unfair, to start such a topic, and yet not to take either one side or the other. He denied that the landed interest bore any peculiar and weighty burdens. The policy of the present Govern ment had been to remove, as far as possible, the taxes which pressed upon labour, and to that policy they were determined to adhere. Mr. DISRAELI replied, and Mr. MUNTZ and Mr. GRENALL briefly stated that they should support the motion. The House then divided, when the numbers were— For the motion Against it Majority -14 It has been reported, but we trust untruly, that the Bishop of LICHFIELD has so fur yielded to the solicitations of his Puseyite clergy as to intend to absent himself from the discussion on the Bill to legalise marriage with the sister of a deceased wife, the Bill being founded upon the unanimous report of the Commission, of which he was himself the head ! The Episcopal Bench have little popularity to lose, and if this course is to be pursued by them they will do their best to widen that breach between the clergy and the laity, which Lord ASHLEY described on Monday night as being very wide already. In 1835, when a highly popular member of the nobility con tracted a marriage of the kind, it was legalised forth with, no single individual of the Bench of Bishops ob jecting. Now, when thousands of these marriages are proved to have taken place among the poor, some of these very same Bishops either stay away, or threaten to oppose, in the case of a poor man, that which they unanimously granted to a rich one ! The cause, however, must succeed ; it is founded in justice, and every day produces its converts. The Bishops made a similar opposition to Sir SAMUEL RomuLy's efforts to amend the criminal law, yet, in spite of their efforts, we no longer see rows of men and boys hanging in the Old Bailey for stealing more than forty shillings. The Bishop of LICHFIELD is an amiable man, but he is a timid man, and lines in terror of the Puscyites. I If he wishes, however, not to disgrace himself in the eyes of the country, he must act upon his well-known . opinion that marriage with a deceased wife's sister is not contrary to the Word of GOD. We are glad to see, in a Lincolnshire paper, that the Bishop of LINCOLN has admitted to a gentleman at Louth, who has contracted such a marriage, that the Bible does not forbid it. The Bishop of LONDON says the same, as appears in the report of the Marriage Commissioners. Will these Bishops, after such a❑ admission, persist in hanging up in our churches the table asserting that such marriages are forbidden by GOD? The Bishop of LICHFIELD will be closely watched in this matter, and his character depends on the course which he now talus. We shall recur to the subject. WHAT HAVE THE WIIIG9 DONE FOR IRELAND ?* A pamphlet under this suggestive title, and not unfitly dedicated to the present Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, has just come under our consideration. It is so signally distinguished from the general class of the literary or political ephemerals of this, pam phleteering age by the simple eloquence of its style, the soundness of ita observlttions, the' accuracy of its statistical information, and the fervid honesty of pur::.‘oFe which appears to • have animated the talented writer; that we are induced by a sense of duty to call public attention to • its high merits. The cOnside r.eioa of the Whig policy in Leland doei not seem out of place just at this moment, when her last and best Chief Governor is about to be re moved, we trust only to be 'placid in a 'position of increased usefulness, end where he will be enabled to carry out measures for tho good of that country which be has so ably governed in times of danger, and suffering; and difficulty, and whose true interests we believe he has sincerely at heart. The occasion which suggested the investigation of this question to the learned author is somewhat characteristic. It appears that at the late Limerick election a rampant orator, in a fit of indignint patriotism, burst into the not very Christian, nor very classical exclamation,' " D--N THE Wnws ? WHAT HAVE THEY EVER DONE FOR IRELAND ?" to which the rejoinder made by the crowd amid shouts of appiause was, " YERRA, DIDN'T THEY DESTROY THE GENTRY ?" To the consideration of these questions the author hag applied himself with a clearness, &hold ness, and an impartiality alike creditable 'to his feelings as an Irishman, and his ability as a writer. After contrasting the two` greatiz•oliticall - parties' ;in the State, and pointing out with great perspicuity the difficulties of the Whigs to 'carry out any mea sures of importance in the face of a great and "power ful Opposition, he comes to the question, whether the Whigs have really been the cause of the ruin of the Irish gentry ? He says— "From the passing of the Act of Union to the year 1846, the state of this country was such as almost to baffle all attempts at description—its social condition was an anomaly without parallel in the history of ancient or modern times—there was nothing like it since the world began—there was no order in our social scale— every one was in a false position from the peer. to the peasant—the peer in reality poor, but in appearance rich, high in rank, intolerant in politics, extravagant and profuse, but only the nominal owner of his princely in come, still indulged his hereditary tastes,- played nn the old game of going in debt—dlsregarding the 'duties of property, remembering only its rights—hunting, gam bling, racing, neglecting, cursingl or despising his country, and restricting her liberties, Whenever 'he had an opportunity of doing so. The peasant,, passionate, reckless, and indolent—badly housed, badly clothed, and badly fed, alike a stranger to material comforts and to moral improvement—living almost in an avowed con dition of perpetual warfare with his superiors —occa sionally passing through all the phases of a desperate criminality, but still enduring, without mitigation or:in termission, all the sufferings and privations that hu manity could be afflicted with—lived on a life of crime, want, idleness, and despair; to-day the victim of misery the moat appalling ; to-mor row the avenger of wrongs the most unparalleled. The gentry, who occupied an intermediate:position, imi tated the vices of their superiors, and in nothing did they resemble them with such scrupulous fidelity as in abusing their country, neglecting their tenantry, squan dering their property, or insulting the religion and dis regarding the miseries of the poor. The nobleman was generally a recognized and confirmed absentee; and as many of the gentry as could followed his example, and those who from necessity or inclination remained at home, looked on themselves rather as the occupiers of a hostile country than the citizens of a well-governed state. Having no feelings in common with the peasantry by whom they were surrounded, and too shortsighted or too haughty to create any subjects of mutual interest, they were in the most offensive sense of the words, ' aliens in blood, language, and religion,' exhibiting it by the sullen isolation with which they kept apart from their Catholic fellow -countrymen or by tolerating their society with an ill-concealed condescension Their pious zeal loved to propagate the Gospel in foeeign part=, instead of practising its precepts at home; their motto was to reclaim the heathen, not to improve them selves; their charity was confined to a weekly but telling contribution at the parish church Their religion consisted in denouncing the Pope ; their patriotism in supporting Coercion Bills and Arms Acts; their liberality and good- feeling consisted in rack-rent ing and harassing their tenantry; their humanity and justice in plundering and evicting thew. By such agentry were no bugs drained, no waste lands reclaimed, no trees planted, no peasantry employed, no industry re w arde3, no schools founded, nu Irish manufactures encour aged, nor politic:l rights extended; indolent themselves, they were the cause of intlob ace in others, though they never ceased denouncing the idleness of the poor; clumsy and carele , s in all matters of business, yet energetic and resolute in the pursuit of pleasure, lavish in the expenditure of money, indifferent as to the means of its acquisition; alieni appatns, sui profious, proud of their :axon origin, but esnemed of their Irish birth, their characters may be summed up in a sentence, WITH OUT THE VIRTUES OF EITHER RACE, THEY WERE IN FECTED WITH THE VICES AND FOLLIES OF BOTH." If this be a faithful picture of the Irish gentry we do not think it required the assistance of Whig or Tory to effect their ruin. The learned author pro ceeds to point out the many advantages conferred on Ireland since the accession of the present Govern ment to power. The exertions made during the famine—the large advances made for railroads, and the improvement of land, the several Bills passed for the reform of the law ; but, above and beyond all, he points to the triumphant administration of the Irish Executive. Lord CLARENDON crushed rebellion with out bloodshed, and created respect for the laws by a judicious combination of mildness and firmness. To his able colleague, Sir W. SOMERVILLE, who works more than he talks, that country is indebted for several measures of great social and political impor tance. We shall only say in conclusion that the able author has eminently succeeded in showing, " WHAT THE WHIGS HAVE DONE FOR IRELAND !" * " What, have the Whigs done for Ireland? or, The English Whigs and Irish Famine."

Durex was re-elected President of the Legislative As sembly for the next three months. In like manner, General LEDRAU, iII. DARU, and M. LEON FAUCHER were re-elected Vice-Presidents; and MM. Aitstun (de l'Arii.ge), LACAZE, CHAroT, PEUPIN, and BZRARD, Secretaries. There still re main one Vice-]'resident and one Secretary to b© nominated. The gentlemen mentioned above having alone obtained the necessary majority, another ballot will take place this day for the election of these officers. This re-election of M. DUPIN and of the majority of the Vice-Presidents and Secretaries has given great satisfaction. A million copies of M. DE MONTALEMBERT'S speech has been printed for distribution. The Pays announces that notwithstanding the request of the PRESIDENT of the Republic that no subscription shall be opened for him, the idea is persisted in, and it gives the names of six persons who have opened lists at their houses. A correspondent of the Pays suggests that a sufficient sum should be raised for the purpose of purchasing Malmaison, and presenting it to the PRESIDENT. The PRESIDENT of the Republic has announced his inten tion of immediately selling his horses. There was not much business transacted at the Bourse, and the price of Government Securities declined slightly.

The Court gave judgment in several cases this morning, none of which were of sufficient importance to call fora report. (Sittings at. isi Prins, before the LORD Ctinr BARON and a Special Jury.) The Court was still occupied with the case of the Attorney General v. the London Dock Company, which will probably last out beyond the present week. CHREATENING LO RD J. RUSSELL. 110 '-STREET.—(THIS DAY). Clarks Gill, charged with having threatene3 to shoot Lord John Russell, was brought up for examination this morning at the Bow-street Police -court. The publication of the arrest in the morning papers drew a large concourse of well-dressed people to the office, bnt the entrance and avenues were kept in excellent order, and the court was at no time during the inquiry inconveniently crowded. Mr. Henry sat upon the bench, and heard the case. The prisoner is a short, thickset young man, with small dark features. There is nothing about the expression of his countenance to indicate insanity, but his eves are deeply sunk in his head, and he appea re d t o b e a man of a studious turn of mind. Mr. llEsiar asked him if he pleaded guilty to the charge of threatening Lord John Russell ? The pritioner said he should decline doing that, and added in reply to further questions that he lived at 33, Surrey-place, Old Kent-road, and was a working jeweller. Mr. Arthur Russell, the private secretary to Lord John Russell, proved the receipt of the letter containing the threat, and Inspector Field spoke to having arrested the prisoner on a warrant last night. He told the prisoner what he was charged with, and the prisoner at once admitted having written the letter. The letter was produced, and upon being shown to the prisoner he at once admitted the handwriting, and re quested that the whole of it might be read. This was done ; it was simply a statement thatshe had made some important discoveries in the laws of gravitation and leverage, and called upon Lord John Russell to assist him in making his discovery known to the world, or he would first give him a black eye and a bloody nose, and if that did not suffice to make his Lordship sensible of the neglect with which his Lordship treated mechanical geniuses like himself, he would get half an ounce of powder, as much lead test the maximum power or resisting strength c ' t. his Lord ship's skull. The prisoner said he sent this letter a and ss c i a o na ne e r d s he should he glad to know how it was that so _ much time fort a n n ig d h a t pi g et:l , and n h i a n d n b ic e n e t n io a n ll n o n w d •ed hi t s o n e r l r as t s . e between the receipt of the corn. the T solicitors of Treasury, who, of of Police and then to the so i n btlhri.s wayA rth : Lr l l h t u e s i s e e t l t l er re w p a l s i e n d .,s t t h t s e t z, - 1 t th to e t t e laj nra m iz 'as i that his Mr. Ile:illy—Do you apprehend, Russell, been present course, to ok time si t d o h in is eure r . r , danger of his lifefrom the prisoner's Lordship goes i in ans a w ll er n isntiopthe oughts matter. ftro. have il said he did. violence?

If a poor man discovered anything the publicity ci u :: that was likely to benefit himself in his country, he could obtain no assistance from those who professed to patronise the mechanical ingenuity of the day, and it was the negli gence or want of support on the part of this arrogant class of the community that had driven him to this expedient, for the purpose of bringing his invention into notoriety. As for injuring Lord John Russell, he would not even. lift his little finger against him ; and if he had read the letter otters. iyely, he would have seen before any violence would have been resorted to, notice of it would have been given in the public papers, to whom be should have sent a copy of this b tier long ago, had he not felt convinced that he would he s , q down f u r a madman, and his letter treated with tantalis ing silence. • ur Mr. 1 i I.NRY—You, and others by example, must b e 3 0 , taught that you are not to attain your object by using threats to others, and annoying public men in this manner.
