(THIS EVENING.) HOUSE OF LORDS. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat upon the Wool sack at Five o'clock. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH gave notice of a motion for Thursday on the subject of the Merchant Seamen's Fund. FARM BUILDINGS BILL AND LANDLORD AND TENANT BILL. Lord KI.NNAIRD moved the Committee on this Bill. The Earl of HARDWICKE thought that facilities ought not to be given to landed proprietors to burden their estates,;which burdens their children would have to pay after them. He moved that the Bill be committed this day six months. Lord KINNAIRD thought that all the objections which had been made to this Bill could be met by amend ments to be proposed in Committee. The Earl of LONSDALE thought the Bill would be of very great use, but there ought to be some guarantee against an abuse of its powers. The Earl of GALLOWAY said that in the part of the country with which he was connected some such measure as this was very much wanted. The Duke ut CLEVELAND thought the Bill ought to go into Committee. The Earl of MALIIESBURY w as opposed to the principle of the Bill. Earl FITZ WILLIAM did not approve of the provi sions of the aid. Lord BEAUMONT considered the Bill to be most obj , ,etionable. There was to be no estimate made of the int:tressed value expr wed to result from these im provements. The tenant fur life had no right to charge the property of the remainder man. Lord KINNAIRD replied. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and their Lordships divided, when there appeared— C o ntents .•• 154 Non contents Majority The Bill is therefore lost. anew Lordships then went into Committee on the Landlord and Tenant Bill. Several amendments were agreed to, and their Lnrd4hips resumed. CONVOCATION. 36 -18 Lord REDESDALE gave notice that he should on Friday briug forward his motion on the subject of Con vocation. ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES BILL. This Bill w 4,, brought up frcm the House or Commons and was rZad a first dole. JOTEE PERSAUD. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH, in moving for a re turn of the names of persons committed to and dis charged from the gaol of Agra b,tween the 11th and the 7th N3vember, 1850, fpecifying in each case !the magistrate by ' , Anse authority each such committal or discharge took place, togtther with the grounds, if any, assigned for the same in the warrant, said,he was in duced to wake this motion because be understood certa in persons had bee❑ committed to prison, and others had been di'charged ft orn prison, because they had refused to give or had proffered evidence against Jotee Persatd. In fact, evidence had been suborned. (LEFT SPEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following Bills were considered and agreed to : Saint Patrick's Cathedral (Dublin). York, Newcastle, and Barwick Railway (Abandonment of part of Bishop Auckland Branch, Sce.) York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway (Branch to West Durham Railway, &c.) The following Bills were read a third time and passed Cameron's Coalbrook Steam Coal and Swansea and Loughor R%ilway (No. 1.) Cubitt's Estate. Kensington Improvement. Wexford Free Bridge. The following Bids were agreed to:— Farmers' Estate Society (Ireland). General Reversionary sod Investment Company. Lincolnshire Estuary. Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and Midland Junction Railway. Mr. DUNCAN supported the amendment. The House-tax, in its present shape, would not operate in any way as to relief to Scotland. Sir G. PECHELL quite agreed that all exemption to the tax was bad, and for that reason he more strongly advccated the total abolition of the tax. Mr. W. WILLIAMS said from the statement made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer that all exemptions from the tax were bad, it was clear that a new light had broken upon him. He therefore called upon the Right Honourable Gentleman to abandon the present tax altogether, especially when he looked at the present state of the revenue. He was quite sure that instead of the house tax diminishing the revenue it would considerably inorease it. Mr. PACKE was also in favour °f a it total abolition of the tax. Mr. L. HEY WORTH insisted that the first duty of the Legislature was to abolish all those taxes that pressed heavily upon the poor, such as tea, coffee, sugar, &c. Mr. DISRAELI would be glad to know what was meant by the statement of the Hon. Member for Lambeth, that it was the intention of the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to reconsider the whole of the house duty, and report his opinion to them next year. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER ob served that the Hon. Member for Lambeth had given an incorrect version of his statement. What ho said was this, namely, that the subject might be re-opened next session. Mr. DISRAELI conceived the Bill at present under consideration was exceedingly injudicious and im proper. The house-tax ought to be a complete and not a partial compensation for the loss of the Window Duty, and his object in moving the resolution on Friday was to ma k e such an alteration in the present taxation as would secure no less to the revenue. How ever, there was not much chance of doing that now, and all he could say for the future was simply this—that if direct taxation was to form an important feature in our financial system that the principle of laying on the direct must be the same as laying on indirect taxation.—(Hear.) Mr. LOCKHART wished to know what would be un derstood by the term " farm buildings" that were to be exempt from the tax ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—AII the buildings that were actually used for farm purposes. Dlr. HEN LEY was rejoiced to hear that explanation. Sir GEORGE PECHELL inquired what would be the mode of valuation under this Bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had re peatedly answered the same question, but he had no objection to reply to it again. The rule for the valuation would be found in the sth chapter of the 48th George 111. If a house were rated to the poor at a IL of the whole an nual value, then the poor-rate valuation would be adopted, and so on in proportionate valuations in rating to the poor. In other instances they would have to as certain the valuation by the belt means they could. After a few words from Mr, HuME and Mr. EwuT, The amendment was negatived without a division. Clause 2 was agreed to without a discussion. On clause 3 bAng proposed, Mr. A. HASTIE moved the insertion of the following words after the word " that":—" No church, chapel, or place used for public worship, that no college, museum, school-house, lecture-room, public library, or place set apart for educational or scientific purposes, and that no court-house, police-office, prison, city or county offices. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said if these buildings were not occupied they would not be liable to the tax, but if they were inhabited they would be rated like other dwelling houses. After a short discussion the House divided, when there appLare.i— For the amendment ... Against it Majority against... NEW WRIT.

INHABITED HOUSE DUTIES BILL. The House then went io Committee on this Bill. Ola clause 1 being proposed, Mr. EWART moved the addition of the following ena cted, that stories of buildings (as w in " 41 :—'' And be it the ease o f mo d e l lodging houses, or of flats in Scot land) or Tart s hereo occupied as separate dwellings, tsetf,i y and a3seas a d to the poor - rate , shall be held to he inhabited p ti a r w a e n... hous es under this Act, and shall ho subject to the same l i a bilities and exemptions Its are, with regard Act and the scheauiteo inhabited dwelling -houses, in this ann exed provided." Mr. HUME consider e d t he house-tax was in er e d that every respect preferabl e t the • w-tax ; but he was disposed sallowt think that if c ! innate ture re all ex e m P • twos of this na be resorted to for the of avoiding the tax by persons who ee kinds of evasions would t purpose merit of a house-tax conaiste% The great ral, and equal, and he thought, therefore b ij e a i y n g i Certain, gene ' exten ,, ed to houses over fortya shillings. ereforetliat it ougal to Mr. SLANEY dirt not ,t 4 eheap cottages in the country were t?s,' : ` 48°R why, if the tax, dwallings of the humbler e l exempted from the building t ow ns, where land was of more va l ue, in large enjoy the same privilege.

Some strange fish of a monster character have lately been working their way towards Ireland, whether as avant couriers of good or evil, time and tide must disclose. On Tuesday last two enormous animals of the skate tribe came into the river Coil near Downpatriek, and after a resolute struggle with their captor a were captured. They were male and female, and the latter gentle fair one measured 5 feet iu length in the body, and 2 feet in the tail, total 7 feet, and in breadth 5 feet 2 inches, and weighed upwards ot 2 cwt., exceeding in the latter respect tl.e famous monster of the deep sold by a fishmonger at Cam bridge to St. John's College in 1770, and which dined 120 persons, for that one weighed only nearly 2 cwt. The male companion of our fair friend above was not deficient either in latitude and longitude of good degrees, for he measured 4k feet in length of body, and 1; feet of tail, giving a good total of 6k feet, and in breadth 44- feet, with a dead weight ot 1 cwt. There were also caught lurking about the same neighbourhood some enormous eels of gigantic dimensions, one of which measured 6 feet in length, and weighed 401 b.; and then, again, on the Shannon, the other day a Brobdignagian salmon fought a tremendous fight with three suc cessive assailants, and beat them all. The first man he grappled with he battled with hand to band for five consecutive hours, and worked him three miles down the stream until at last the man combatant fainted, and a companion took his place. This reserved force fared but little better, for although he kept up the conflict with game, he found him self, after eight hours' fight, seven miles more down the river, and day just breaking upon him; for the conflict commenced at about three in the afternoon, and with as little chance of a triumph as when he began. A gentleman residing near the river side, and hearing of the extraordinary battle that was raging in his vicinity, rushed from his bed to the scene, and in the vigour of replenished strength after sleep gave the all but vanquished angler a pound note for the hold of his rod, and chance of his game, which was joyfully accepted as a lucky re lief from a shameful discomfiture. Nor was the hoped-for prize unworthy of the bid, for he had given his opponents several hints of what he could de, by showing his physical capabilities in various plunges out of the water during the contest, and his power was calculated at 701bs. weight. The third hero no sooner went to work than he felt he had it to do, but he manfully tackled to it, and fought with all his might (for four miles further and nine hours) until at last the god of war (Neptune I suppose in this case) took part with General Salmon, and in one desperate charge he dashed through all impediments, and carried off hook, line, and rod, nearly to the wheel, leaving to his op ponent to meditate on the remains in his hand. The whole time occupied i❑ this desperate affair was twenty-three hours, and the field of battle extended over nearly twenty miles. Surely these phenomena must forebode something out of the common.—From a Correspondent of the Morning Post. THE QUARANTINE LAWS. We copisd last week liens ose of the Penis journals a short paragraph, stating thet it was in contemplation to hold a sanitary congress with the view to the better regulation of the quantine laws. We are now enabled to give, from a semi-official source, the following de tails:—After the resistance offered by the sanitary board of Marseilics to the new regulations presented by the French Government with v, view of diminishing the op pressive operation of the quarantine regu aquas, it was resolved to propose to the maritime Powers that an inquiry should be made into the true character and effect of the diseases (the yellow fever, the plague, and the cholera) against the propagation of which restrictive measures are adopted in different countries, with a view of coming to some general understand ing on the subject. It was proposed by by the French Government that a congress should be held at Toulon, and that each maritime Power should send to it two de getes, one to represent the commercial interests, the other a member of the faculty of medicine. The suggestion of_ a congress was universally approved of; but some of the Powers disapproved of the place named for the meeting, and proposed Montpelier. On this the French Govern ment proposed Paris, as being central and affording to the delegates not only immediate access to the best in formation, but also giving to them the advantage of being able to communicate at once with the embassies of their respective countries, in the event of such a course being necessary. This last propssition has been acced to, and the Congress will commence its labours soon after the middle of the present month. We understand that the prin cipal points to be submitted to the congress by the French Government. are-1. Is the cholera contagious? Are quarantine regulations against this disease neces sary for public security ? In cases of plague is it safe to adopt the system practised by Austria, of allowing the quarantine to commence from the date of the sailing of the vessel from its last report in stead of that of its arrival at the port of destination? Is it not adxisable to form a general sanitary board re presenting all the maritime Powers, and to appoint for each port, where a quarantine shall exist, a medical man, who shall represent, not merely the country in which he resides, but all the maritime Powers, and whose declaration shall be conclusive, unless it be set aside by the decision of the board on the remonstrances to which it may give rise.—Galignani's Messenger MONEY MARKET.—The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mille discount, according to the new tariff, which, at the English Mint price of SI. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.07 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.021, it follows that gold is 0.18 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London.' By advices from Ham burgh the price of gold is 4241 per mark, which, at the Eng lish Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.41; and the exchange at Ham burgh on London at short being 13.41, it follows that gold is 0.12 per cent. dearer in Hamburgh than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1104 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is nominally 1.17 per cent. in favour of England; and after making allowance for differ ence of interest and charges of transport, the present rate leaves a considerable profit on the importation of gold from the United States. Luca AMONG BRICKS.—At the demolition of some old houses in Lyons, one of the labourers found a piece of old metal wedged in between two courses o , masonry. flay ing gone with his discovery to some vendor of marine stores, the sum of two francs was given for it, as it seemed to be very good copper indeed. But, ou nearer inquiry, the antiquarian began to entertain some misgivings, and brought the piece of metal to a commissaire do police, who at once recognised it as an ingot of gold. Still the present owner would not appropriate to himself the treasure, but named the journeyman bricklayer from whom he bad bought i it. Notices were issued as to the real owner of the gold bar; but as it bears the mark of the assayer's office of the Republic of 1790, there is no doubt that it will ultimately revert to its lucky finder. Its value is about 7,C00 franca.— The Builder. A Parisian charcoal dealer residing in the quartier of the Bastille, en Saturday threw himself from the Column of July, and was killed on the spot. TUE WELSH FLAN NEL MARKET. — The Welsh flannel market, held at Newtown, in Montgomeryshire, has been well supplied with goods, which have been shown in capital condition The prices remain as heretofn e, though t h e y appear a little unsettled with a slight downward ten dency. The finer kinds are the heaviest of saie, though former prices are firmly maintained. The Machynlltth and Llantirynmair makes are in the greatest request, and they eel well.—North Wales Chronicle. MONDAY EVENING, JULY 7, 1851. WEST INDIA MARKETS. (From De Cordova's Mercantile Intelligencer.) KINGSTON, JAMAICA.. JUNE 12.—Our market has been rather quiet during the past fortnight, and prices gene rally have been v,ry well supported. The steady im provement observable in the article of codfish is to be attributed mainly to the circumstance of there having been but one arrival from Halifax since our last, after an interval of 19 days—a fact which has tended, in a great measure, to confirm the report which was prevalent here at that date, regarding the scarcity of fish at the porta of shipment, and the consequent improbability of our market being glutted, as it has been heretofore, with Nova Scotian imports, at least until the new catch shall have been prepared for shipment. Breadstuffs continue for the most part neglected, and as the late rains will have the effect of forwarding the crops of native vegetables, we do not perceive any imme diate likelihood of the occurrence of an improved demand for the imported articles. The advance in the price of Corn meal is, we are inclined to consider, only a tem porary one, which would be lost on the arrival of any considerable quantity of that article. Produce—Sugars generally have been dealt in to a very fair extent, both for shipment and the home trade; but there has been a freer inquiry for the lower grades for home use than for the finer qualities, and they have commanded comparatively higher prices than the latter. Rum has been less active, the heavy stock of brands, which are not usually selected for exportation, having tended to depress prices. Pimento is in small supply, and the new crop, which it is anticipated will be unu sually large, will not be brought to market until August at earliest. The coffee crop is almost exhausted, and the stock at market is unimportant. The rains have very generally ceased, and the oppor tunity has been seized to take off the remainder of the crops, the gathering in of which had been interrupted by the May season. Flour—The only wholesale transaction since our last has been the disposal of 500 barrels new Baltimore at 28s. Some small operations, summoning up about 200 barrels of mixed sorts, have been also effected at 28s 6d to 295. The market is heavily stocked, and as the trade find that small parcels are readily obtainable at a small advance on wholesale prices, there is of course little or no speculative feeling in existence. A parcel of 150 bar rels old sour flour has been moved at 25s per barrel. Meal—The price of new has improved under the re stricted receipts, but the rather large quantity of old at market interferes to some extent with the demand for the former, of which there have been sales at 15s. to 16a. per barrel. It is now, however, very generally held For 18g. Rice—Both East India and Carolina are in large supply, Kith a very limited inquiry. Bengal has been moved at 14s and Patna at 16s. per 1001 b. 120 bags and a few tierces and half tierces Carolina have changed hands at 17s. Butter-The market for this article is drooping. Irish is difficult of sale at 12d., and Halifax at 9d, per lb. American may be quoted at Bd. to 9d., according to quality. Bread-The operation in Wattson's have been con fined to retail transactions at IBs. for pilot and 225. for crackers. A lot of very good crackers and pilot bread, of New York manufacture, has changed hands at 16s. and 149. per barrel respectively. Mackerel have been in smaller demand than any other description of pickled fiah-the general inferiority of the stock at market, aed more especially the thinness of the fish, having tended to restrict the demand. The operations in No 3 have been principally at 215., but some sales have been effected at 255. Holders are now, however, demandieg 265. per barrel. Herrings-Receivers' hands have been very nearly cleated under the centinued good demand and large consumption alluded to in our last. Several hundred barrels No. 1, round, were disposed of at 175., and some operations were effected at 18s., at which rate the article is now held. Alewives are still rather unsaleable; they may be quoted at 18s. to 19s. per barrel. Oil-Cod has somewhat improved since our last, owing to the cessation of arrivals. The article is ne verthek es in small inquiry, but holders are firm at 2s. 6d. per gallon. The sales during the fortnight were effected at 2s. 3d., 2s. 4d., and 2s. 6d. Lard-We quote American at 6id. to 7d. Codfish-The trade have come forward rather freely, nnder the impression that the stock will not be imme diately augmented. In the early part of the fortnight holders submitted to 12s. to 13s. for cask, but as the supply became reduced, they succeeded in obtaining 13s. 6d. to 145., at which latter rate the article is now firmly held. Boxes have been taken at 16s. to 17s. Several parcels of old cask fish have been moved, at auction and otherwise, at Bs. to 12s. per 1001bs., accord ing to quality. Pork-A parcel of 150 barrels has changed hands at 765. per barrel. Mesa is moved at 925. in small quanti ties. The consumption of both descriptions is greatly checked by the existing high rates. The stock is light. The receipts of this article, from the Ist January, 1851, to this date, are 1,900 barrels less than they were during the same period last year. Hams-English are very inactive, at 9d.; American are worth sd. to 7d. per lb., according to quality. Salmon may be quoted as follows-No. 1, at 725.; Ne. 2, at 685.; No. 3, at 645. per barrel. Soap-The stock of all sorts is enormous, with little or no demand. Steele's, especially, is represented as being very inactive. Candles-The greater portion of the supply at market is now in the hands of speculators, who are endeavour ing to force up prices. Several large parcels have changed hands at 50. to 6id., according to assortment and brand. Cheese-There have been sales of D. G. at 11d. to Is., and of American at sd. to 6id. per lb. The stock is now ample. Lumber-W. P. is in abundant supply, as are also Cy press Shingles. Cedar Shingles are still scarce, as is likewise Pitchpine Lumber. No operations of any mo ment have transpired. Beef-American is worth 465. to 48s. per half barrel. Tongues-Irish pigs have been moved at 50s. to 525. per half barrel. Brandy-Is in immense supply, and very limited in quiry. There have been sales of Martell'a and Henes sey's dark and pale, in bond, at ss. 6d. in small quanti ties, but we learn that 9 hogsbeads of the former have changed hands at ss. 3d. per gallon. Geneva-Is worth Bs. per case in bond. Corn-The market is greatly over-stocked, and prices have declined proportionately. We have heart of sales to the extent of 750 begs Baltimore at 6s. 9d. South American is being placed at 3a. 6d. per bushel. Rum-The business has been restricted to small ope rations, at 3s. W. to 3s. 6d. per gallon fur consumption. The N is V e a lar r ge i . ige our quotations at 16s. to 19s. for usa stock r- dark to fair. Coffee-The crop has been very nearly all got in, and there are now very few parcels at market. Ordinary may be quoted at 30s. to 325. per 100 lb. Pimento-Some small lots, the remainder of the old crop, have changed bands at 41d. to 41d. per lb. Logwood is being offered at 365. per ton, but there is little doing in the article. Freights-In consequence of the comparative scarcity of tonnage, and the eircumseenee that some rather large quantities of produce have been lying here waiting the means of conveyance to Great Britain, higher rates of freight have been obtained than had beeu current for some time previously. Gold-Columbisu doubloons are_ivortb five per ceat. American gold has been taken to a rather large extent at 1 per cent. edalt-Bottled is very inactive; Lane's Cork stout is , placed at 80s. per hhd. Salt-Liverpool stored commands 4s. 6d. to 53. per sack. Tobacco-Cavendish, which had been selling at 12d., has been since offered at that rate and declined. The stock is very large. No sales of leaf have transpired. EXCHANGES. ON LONDON. Colonial Dank-90 days, 1 per cent. discount. 66 64 60 days, per cent. discount. 4, " 30 days, par. Jamaica Bank-90 days, 1 per cent. discount.

The detachments advanced half across the common, and extended their line over its entire breadth, and then commenced acting as skirmisher:, and after each firing retired about thirty yards until they rejoined the main body of their respective forces, when they formed squares, tne front rank kneeling, and commenced firing a run ning fire and by volleys to show the Manner in which the approach of an enemy is repelled. Toe three troops of Horse Artillery then advanced across the half of the common, each troop flanked by two troops of Lancers, and on reaching he middle of thecommon one of the troops of Horse Artillery, preceded by two troops of Lancers, advanced at full gallop to the extreme north end of the common, and the Lancers wheeling to the right and left the Horse Artillery commenced firing. After several rounds bad been fired the troops of Horse Artillery and Lancers retired to the position occupied by the other troops of Horse Artillery, and the firing became general from all the troops and field batteries. The troops after wards returned to their original position on the upper part of the common, and the 9-pounder batteries cora meneed firing with the whole of the battalions and the Light Infantry, the Royal Horse Artillery on the right, and the light field batteries on the left, keeping up a continuous fire for about a quarter of an hour. Two troops of the Lancers advanced afterwards from the centre, and spreading over a largo extent of ground scoured the whole, one troop turning co the right and the other to the left, proceeding at full gallop, darting their lances first on one side and then on the other, until on their return they took up a position on the right and left of the line. The whole of the troops, at the conclusion of the evolutions, again formed into line and marched forward to salute the Master-General, who expressed himself highly pleased with the manner in which they had acquitted themselves during the review. The Mar guts of Anglesey, and the large party of the nobility, among whom was the Marchioness of Conynghane, proceeded to the mess room, where an elegant dejeliner was served for 300 partakers. THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION. IPSWICH, SATURDAY, JULY s.—So far as sectional meetings are concerned this has been a blank day, al though sufficiently busy in other respects. Early in the morning the unusually quiet streets of Ipswich were in a bustle with flys, coaches, omnibuses, vans, carrying the associated philosophers in different directions. One party, having met at the reception room for their place of rendezvous, proceeded as early as half-past seven o'clock to Woodbridge and Orford by land, at the former of which places they had been invited to break fast by George 'Thomas, Esq. After doing ample jus tice to Mr. Thomas's good cheer, some of the vistters proceeded to inspect Mr. Whincopp's collection of Bri tish, Saxon, Roman, and rrieuieetal antiquities, which had been arranged in the lecture ball for the occasion. Others, bent on acquiring geological information, ex tended their excursion as far as Sutton, to examine the superposition of red on coralline crag, and the excava tion for " coprolites" at Sutton. A third part s , not, de sirous of extending their ranfoles so far beyond Wood bridge as buttes, contented themselves with a walk to Kingston, where the remains of Krcacus and U ruc.J therium were discovered by Mr. Colchester. All these parties having returned to Woodbridge by eleven, car riages were waiting to convey them t o th e re d crag p i ts at Butley Oyster and Chillesford. At the latter place there are beds of a peculiar character, described by Mr. Prestwich as overlaying the red crag. The place next visited was the locality of the coralline crag, in Pud bourn Park; after which the members sat (Jowl] to a dinner provided for them in the old Keep at Orford Castle. Finally, the church and castle being viewed, the party, about five ?At., set off tor Ipswich. A second division of the members availed themselvt s of a steam excursion down the Orwell and along the coast. Others proceeded to Colchester, where, by p. r mission of the Mayor, the Museum of Roman Antiquities was opened for their inspection, and the Rev. Mr. Jen kins, acting as cicerone, conducted them to the castle, St. Botolph's Priory, Se John's Abbey-gate, and other interesting objects. By permission of John Taylor, Eel., those of the members who felt disposed were al lowed to excavate a portion of the Roman burial-ground there, A smaller party, bent on a still longer excursion, went to Bury, enticed by the antiquarian and other ce lebrities of that interesting locality. With a view to enhance the interest of the. visit, tho Museum at the Guildhall had been temporarily increased by contribu tions. from many private sources. The remains of the abbey and church of Sr. Edmund, St. James's church, the Norman tower, the chapel of the,ch . towel, St. Mary' s church, and the Norman House, otherwise called Moyse's Hall, came in severally for their rceed of approbation. Nor were the savans content with the mere curiosities of the town, but, extending their rambles, they also visited the round-towered churches of Little Saxhorn, Risby, and Hengrave, and the Tudor House of Hengrave-hall. During the whole of the day the garden aed pleasure grounds of Shrublands Park were thr own open to t he members of the association, through th e lib eral i ty o f Sir William Middleton; and in the eveni ng L ady Middleton gave a soirée, to which the chief members of the asso ciation were invited. The band of the Queen's 13a58 was in attendance, and the riunion was altogether of the most pleasing kind.

About 2,000 quarters of malt coastwise and 2 MO loads of oatmeal from Ire• land constitute the chief arrivals from those sources into Liver pool and Runcorn; and from abroad the imports are only to a moderate amout. Our market this morning was of precisely the same character as noted above, fielders not being disposed to submit to anything more than a moderate reduction in prices, whist the dealers and bakers refrained from operating a trifling extent. NOTTINGpAII, JULY s.—Barley does not seem so promising; it needs rain, particularly en strong soils, the crops in such localities being sickly and patchy. In favourable situations it has been in ear for more than a week, whilst in others it appears likely to be fully another week first. Oats, beans, turnips. and potatoes promise well, and at present are free from disv.ase or fly. Millers were disinclined to buy wheat to-day, excepting for their immediate wants ; but the supply was so limitod that the price could not be depressed more than Is per quarter from last week's rates. Out-of-conditioned wheat was quit* neg lected. Oats and beans were slow sale. WoacEszEn, JULY s.—Wheat must be cuoted is per quarter lower, and the current rates for English white are from 16s 6d to 17s per bag of three bushels; English red, 15s 6d to 16s 6il per bag. Foreign is quite as dear. Barley mainta;ns its value, malting qualities being worth 3s 6d to 3. 8d per bushel, and distilling from 3s to 3s 4d. English beans, 4s 4d to 4s 6ct per bushel. Oats, 3s 6d to 3s 8d per 391 b for old English, and 3s to 38 to 3s 4d for new. Ixish, 35 to 3s 3d. Peas from 4s 6d to 5s per bushel. The weekly averages show the quantity of wheat sold ill this market to be 332 quarters only, and the average price per quarter 216 s Bd. At Stourbridgc market on Friday business was very dull. Wheat declined telly Is per quarter. In other descriptions of grain prices nominally as before. At Wolverhampton market there was a small supply of wheat from the farmers, but millers acted upon the reserve, and the transactions were limited, the sales effected being at a rethictiou of is 6d. to 2s per quarter. White wheat is nominally worth Is 6d per €l2lb, and red 3s 6d to 5s 8d Flour fell Is 8d per sack. Little inquiry for malting barley in consequence of the hot weather. Current prices, 27s to 28s per quarter. English oats held for full prices, viz., from 26s to 28s per im perial quarter. Iri,h, 21s to 23s per 3121 b Old English beans maintained their value of 3s 6,1 per 1961 b; French, 12s to 12s 6d ' • Egyptian, lls 6d t o 12 s . At Atherstone and Rugby the business done was limited, but wheat was to be purchased at prices in favour of the buyer. The hot weather has again set in, and the hav harvest has been rapidly progressing. The wheat craps look strong and heavy in the ear on all hands.

DUBLIN, JULY 4.—Ne have now fine summer weather, and the accounts from the interior concurring as to the favour able progress of the crops, there was little disposition to pur chase at our corn.market this day, and the sales were so few, that although we continue Tuesday's quotations, they may be considered as i n a great measure nominal.

CORK, JULY 4. The supply of home grain continues very trifling. The re ceipts for the week are—wheat, 23 brls ; barley, 8 brls ; oats, 350 lads. In prices there is little change. In f.reign wheat we have had no business passing. A pause took place in the trade'at the close of last seek, and the dull advises since from the English side have hac a most depressing effect upon the trade. In the absence of sales quotations would be only no minal. We believe, however, the tendency is rather down wards for prime as well as for Egyptian wheat. Oats are much as last quoted. We know of no transactions in the article. The transactions in Litir are on the most restricted and retail scale. The bakers, having supplied themselves pretty freely during the last two weeks, purchase now only as necessity compels them, and the trade, in consequence, is very dull snd lifeless. Indian corn has undergone a st i ll further and more serious decline. Prime yellow corn can be purchased at 71. per ton, and white at 61 15s. Tais is a decline of fully 5s to 7s 6d from the prices of last week. The exceedingly favourable wea ther, and the now near at hand abundant supply of potatoes, are evidently operating prejudicially against the sale of this, and indeed of all other descriptions of grain.
