The anniversary of the Queen's birthday was cele brated on Saturday with a degree of loyalty w hi c h cou ld not fail to attract the observation of the foreigners now re-iding in the metropolis. It was a beautiful burst of affection that burned all the mor e b r illi ant l y b ecause of its spontaneity, and it must have left a deep impression upon the muds of mer, strangers to th e re l at i ons o f kindness that subsist between her Majesty and the peo ple, to witness the happiness of all at the return of their Queen's birthday. The . aspect of the town in th e even i ng was, i f poss ibl e, more i nd i cat ive of the affection entertained by the pe-i -ple of this country for their Queen than it was in the day Countless ill um i nat i ons li t up the streets i n every direction; and the whole tide of human life, "in popu lous city pent" during the forenoon, poured in a deep unbroken stream through the great thoroughfares until long past midnight. One and all mentioeed her name with pleasure; and when in the various . theatres the "Pealing anthem swelled the note of praise" at the close of the several performances, the audiences, one and all, hailed it with acclamation. That this good uuderbtand ing, which is the basis of all real political power, may long subsist between the green and her people, must be the ardent wish of every patriot, as well as every lover of humanity.

The clubhouses at the we.t end or the town presented a blaze of light; the theatres were very tastefully illumipa , ed. the Bilyieennin Insti tution, the Colos,eum, the Ga'rery of Llustration, R-- gent-street, bad etch their respecttve mottoes, stars, and allpgorieal rrpresetitations. The tradesmf is of her Ma- .I , ly also displayed their loyalty in the brilliancy o f th , it devices, and altogether the scene was very brilliant. Toe streets were crowded %jar people viewing the spec tacle for several hours, the concourse of carriages asd the mob of pedestrians in come localiies almost blocking up the way; order was, however, well preserved, and it does not appear that any accidents were occasioned by the presaure.

INPERIAL PARLIAMENT. (THIS EVENING ) HOUSE OF LORDS. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at Foe o'clock. COURT OF CHANCERY. Lord LYNDHURST understood that the Bill intro duced into the other Hens° by the Prime Minister had been abandoned, and that a new 13i11 (with the drawn* up of which he hoped his Noble end Learned Friend on the Woolsack had hal more to do than he had had with the former Bill) was about to be intro duced. In the last session a Bill for the Reform of the Court of Chancery in Ireland had been intro duced by the presi-nt Master of the Rolls ; thir Bill had passed into a law and the result had been most satisfactory. In consequence of that Bill 694 petitions had been presented and only twenty-nine , bills had been filed for proceeding in what bad previously been the ordinary mode. That wits eati•f , ,ctory so far as regarded plaintiffs, and as regarded defendants not one had pe tinned to proceed by bill instead of petition. The law officers in Ireland bad testified to the admirable working of this Act, and be hoped his Noblo and Learned Friend would consider these facts; and he had been assured that at the conclusion of this terra there would not be one of these 694 petitions on which a decree would not have been pronounced. He commended these facts to the at tentive consideration of his Neble and Learned Friend. The LORD CHANCELLOR hoped that the Bill now in the hands of the Prime Minister would meet the expectations of his Noble and Learned Friend. He could well understand that all matters now brought forward by bill might bo brought forward by petition, but he did not think that would materially aid the administration of justice. His Noble and Learned Fria nd had said that upwards of 400 noses bad been disposed of, and be should have been glad if an equal number of cases in this c eintry. Counsel would have ceased speaking. He thought that such an entire alteration in the administration of justice should be adopted with caution; he would make inquiry into the subject, and was obliged to his Noble and Learned Friend tor having drawn his attention to the matter; and would bo at all times happy to r e ceive any suggestions from his Noble and Learned Friend, on a subject which ho so well understood as the administration of justice in the Court of Chancery. CRIMINAL LAW. Lord LYNDHURST wished to knew what progress had been made it cam log out the recommendations of the Commission. ra for the Reform of the Criminal Law?—(Hear, hear, from Lord Brougham) He wished to know whether it was intended to act upon the report of the Commissioners, or to pass it over entirely. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that a tew days ago his Neible and Learned Friend had, in the way of ordinary conversation, alludAt to it, but not in the wit) to impress him with the idea that he intended to allude to the subject publicly. Ho had no reason to think that it was the intention of the Government to advance any more money to prosecute the inquiry. Lord BROUGHAM. said that, betore Easter, he had put a nearly similar question, and his Noble and Learned Friend on the Woolsack had uudertsken to inform him self on the subject. He had addressed a letter to the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the subject, and had learned, to his surprize and regret, that it was not his intention to renew the Commission He had, three several dunes, brought its a Bill digesting the criminal law, tied it bad been admitt.e that the Bill ought to te referred to a newly con structed Commission—an pinion in which be entirely concurred; and he unders:ood it was agreed that such Commission aheu!d be crested, and th..t the Com mission should make a fival examination, and that to them the propoln I 'bode of cri minal procedure should be submitted for final examin,tion, he was much disappointed when he found that no such Commission was to be appointed. By this refusal to renew the Ceminission tt e country vviadd be deprived of any ben+ fit they might have derived trout the lsbours of the Criminal Law Cvmmissioeers. The subject then dropped. PE fl HONS. Lord CRANWORTti presented a petition in favour of the Abt•con=ring Debtors elso a petition horn a person who held some municipal office, who complained that he had not been deprived of his iffice (which would have entitled him to compensltion). but that he had b•:eu deprived of the proti,a of his office. REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES BILL. Lora CAMPBELL moved that the order of the day for the consideration of this Bill be discharged an po.t• poned to the first day after the Whitsuntirbr holidays. After a few words from Earl FITZWILLIAM, Lord CRANWORTH, and the Marquis of WESTMEATH, the motion was agreed to. PE UTIONS. The Earl of ENN.hKILLEN presented numerous petitions from various places in Ireland against Papal aggression.

Sir W. SOMERVILLE said he bad no reason to be lieve that the Board of Guardians had removed either of the gentlemen. INCOME TAX. Mr. HUME nominated the Select Committee to in quire into the subject of the income-tax, consisting of he following eeetlemen :—Mr. Flume, the Charcellor of the Exchequer, Mr, Horsrean, Mr. Herries, Mr. !Abele:here. Lord Harry Vane, Mr. Di-raeli, Mr. Thomas Baring, Mr. Henley, Mr. Cehden, Mr. Frederick Peel, Mr. Roebuck, Mr. Ricardo, Mr. Vesey, and Mr. Beckett Denison. The cow sa he thought which would have to be puma d by this Committee in their labours would be, to as certain the workings of the tax in all its ways, and to see whether any mode could be adopted to render it more fair Bed • trial, and as little as postoble oppressive to the ittuustry f the people. He lot ked forward to the present enquiry, to render the tax a means of maiwaining one uniform s3stum of chlrges in the country without the necessity of more extraerdieery charges which they had witnessed of late years, and which he contendel even if they were for the better yet at first produced 1-ss evils. His earnest wish was to retain a permanent system. Mr. BERRIES said when he had voted for the motion of the Hun. Member opposite to limit the tax for one year, he certainly did not mean his vote to involve au (absent to the present inquiry, and more especially when be now perceived that the intention with which the Honourable Member went into it was not to abolish the tax but to mold it, cer taiely, if he could , at all events, to make it permanent. That principle he differed from altogether. There was also another point on which he differed from the Hon. Member, and that was that the chief grievance of the tax was in schedule E. In his opinion it was schedule D which wasmost faulty and unjust. The Hon. Gentleman had adverted to Mr. Pitt, but he had forgotten that there was a wide difference between the circumstances of 1798 and those of the present time. The tax might bare been expedient then, but it was totally uncalled for now. To show the injustice of the tax be might menden an instance of ine quality which had come under his own observation. A certain inaneacturer had re turned his profits at 70,000/. a year; but the local commissioners were dissatisfit d with that retire, and in order to avoid a full investiga tion into the whole of his private drifts he was obliged to pay the tax upon 130,0001 But that was only one instance of its itijustoce.—(bear, hear.) Now, with regard to the Committee. be did not think it bad been fairly selected, and he was very much afraid that it would accomplish no useful end. The tax was full of in( qualities, ui just in its operation, and liable to encou rage fraud, and he therefore (nought the beat thing that cuuid be done was to abandon the tax altogether. Colonel SIB ramp thought the tax in any shape would be objectionable, and be agreed with the Right Hon. Gentleman that the prop aed enquiry could lead to no good result. He complained that no Member had been aelteted to serve on the Committee who would be likely to represent the interest of the army and navy. He, for one, thought officers in the army and navy, who lived upon weir pay, ought to be exempted) from the pay went of the tax, and he was, on that ace count, the more annoyed at the omission referred to. Mr. V. SMI ra bad come down to the House under the impression that there was nothing else to do but to nominate the Committee, but it appeared to him now that the appointment of any Committee at all was an open questtot . If it was he was quite ready to vote that there should be no Committee, for he was averse to shitting any part of the responsibility which duly belonged to Government on to the shoulders of a doe .n Members of the H use. What would this Committee have to do supposing was ap pointed? At one time it was supposed that ite object of its appointment was the t quallsation of the tax, but now it swat', d the questions to be decided gas bow tar !yid could be relieved from its operation, arid if that really were so, bow could the Committee arrive at any satisfectory conclu , ion on that point, when nine ,qetnuers proposed to be nominated would represent towns, and only six countiesr— heat.) He hoped the House would make some alteration in tee coostou t eal ef the Curnmitt, e it they were to have any at all. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had un derstood that the tax way to be continued tor a year, anti, in the meanwhile, a Comautt:ee was to be appointed with a view of rendering it more Neal in its operation before it was rendered permanent. The discussion which had. just taken place showed the inconveuieece which arose from two para. a professing opposite principles uniting to carte a particular minion, because now it seemed that while one side wished to improve the tax with a view of rendering it permanent, the other wanted to get rid of the tax altogether.—(Bear, hear.) Tne Government could not accede to the la4er proposal, and they bad consequently no eke; mauve but to consent to the appointment of the Committee, sold now that such a motion had beets agreed to, their object ought to be, so to constitute the Committee that it should represent every shade of feeling in the House. The Hun. Gentleman who had named their Committee appeared to have been actuated by that desire, and he thought on the whole, that the Committees us it now stood on the paper, was open to little or no objection whatever. He, however, hoped the sugges- tion of the Honourable and Gallant Member for Lincoln was well worthy of attention, and if any Gentleman could be placed on the Committee who could represent the feelings of the army and the navy on this outflow, of the income-tax, it was extremely advisable to do so —(1-leer, beer.) Mr. FRESUFIELD moved as an amendment that the order for the appointment of the Cummittee be read fur the purpose of lef-itig discharged. Mr. DISRAELI rose and was (LEFT SPEAKIN(I.) THE ATLA:NTIC AND PACIFIC RAILWAY PROJECT. The letter from Mr. Whitney in the Times of the 17th of April, describing his proposed railway aoro 's the American continent from the Atlsmie to the Pacific, has excited attention, and led to offers in this country to aif rd him any assistance be may r, quire. The nove ty and simplicity of his plan contrast remarkably with the magnitude of its or ct, and suggest a revolution in the modes of conducting public enter prises which may opportunely c impensate for the destruction of faith during the fait ten years which has threaten , d to render it impossible to carry ou. for the future even the most needful and prom sing undertakings. Hts schemes is to build a railway 2 030 miles in length, not only without a still nog of Government money, but also wi.hout raiping any contributions from tne public, and, when complen-d, it would be the property of the nation, the value of *Otos° ttrritorial possessions would also be incal culably augmented. At the same time, the element of reit-interest, the true adjunct of practical philan thropy-, would operate as the moving cause in every stage of the whole affair. From New York to the Wisconsin b rd, r of Lake Michigan, a distance west of shoot 1 000 miles, there is already a pelftet cona• munication by steamboat and railvvsy, and Mr. Whitney proposes to continue the line thence to the Pacific. For this purpose he asks a grant of thirty miles of the public lands on each side of the con templated road, and from these, altl!ough they are at present without value exe , pt in the immed,site neigh bourhood of the starting point, he would create all the means that aro necessary. He would, for instance, commence with ten miles of the road, and then sell a portion of the lands on each bide, which, owing to th , ir proximity to the advancing rush of popu lation, the existing facilitiiis of transit, and the fact of such an enterprise being undertaken, would at once realize considerably more than would be requi,itt, thus tar to meet the outlay. Tir,e point at the tnd of these ten miles would then be in nearly the same posi tion as that from which he. had originally starked,; and another ten miles might therefore be constructed with like results.

The report stute,l that the shareholders were aware that the accounts under the deed of settlement were only pry sei,ted once a year, but the financial position of the company seemed very satisfactory, and warranted the declaration of a dividend for the next six months, ending 81st March next, of 4 per cent. Arrangements bad been made for extending the steam communication with ladle. China. &c. Considerable attention had been paid to increasing the speed of the company's vessels, and the Ilindostan and Oriental now made the voyage from Sup a to Calcutta in eight days less than the time wtieulaied in the mail contract. The company intended to resume the North Coast of China service, by means of the Pacha be Pen Hong lievg and Shangbae. Va rious improvements were intended wi:h regal(' to ih.+ transit of the mad through Egypt, and the directors could elate, oo the authority of a letter from the Pacha. that be intended to construct a railway through thit country, under the direction of Mr. Stephensoe, M.P. The Canton, which bad-run en an unknown sunken rock on the coast of Caine, had, afer being exposed to a sea ter eight weeks which weuld have destroyed a wooden vessel, been got off and found to have sustained damace only which could be repaired at a comparatively trifling cost. The Sir Charles Forbes had been hired to supply the place of the Canton. The company 11,:d made a fourth tender to the Gevernment for the service to Australia, but no definite reply had yet been received. The report was adopted, the dividend declared, a vote of thanks given to the Pacha of Egypt for the interest he bad taken with regard to the communication with India, &c., and to the directors for their continued atten tion to the interests of the company. RAILWAY MASSA CBES. Long lists of figure*, are periodically paraded before the public, in which they are informed how many pas sengers travel annually upon our railways, and what is the number per ern . that meet with any accident on their journeys. We are tbon usually informed how many used to travel by stage-coaches in the olden time, and what was the per-tentage of accidents among passengers by that mode of conveyance. It was impossible in stage-coach travelling to guard completely against all kinds of accident. In railway tra velling it is possible to do so. No amount of care or skill in the proptietors or driver of a coach could furnish absolute security. The coach might be sound and well built, the horses might be well chosen and well driven, there might be no overloading, and yet an ac cident might happen. Horses might suddenly lull, or take fright, or the misconduct of the drivers of other vehicles migbt bring on a collision ; or there might be an unknown danger in the state of the road over which the coacbmaster had no control. There is nothing of the kind in the case of a railway. Rail way carriages have inanimate machinery for their motive power. A steam-engine does not kick or bolt or take fright. It has no vice; and, if it is unsound, the. railway company have themselves to blame. Then, the road is their own. None but their own carriages travel on it. If these interfere with the sale transit of each other, or it the road itself is in an unsafe state, it is the fault of the company, and of the company only. We repeat it, a railway accident cannot hap pen without the railway company being to blame. If they buy defective carriages or engines, or if they allow them to b .come &heave by neglect and wear and tear, but persist in using them; if they start their trains too soon after each other; if they do not keep the rails and the permanent way in good order; if they employ insufficient and incompetent servants; if they do any of these things, they are justly blameabl-, and they ought to be made severely responsible.— Weekly News. STARVATION OF A GIRL BY APR FATHER AND STEP-MOTHER ar BRISTOL. - Robert and Louisa Carpenter, who have been for some weeks in custody at Bristol upon a charge of cruelly ill-treating Christiana Carpenter, a girl 16 years old, by locking her op in a room, half-starving her, and beating her, underwent a further examination before the magistrates of Bristol on Saturday. In consequence of the immense crowds which thronged the streets upon the occa sion of the former remends, and of the threatening and Nit). lent aspect 'Allied the pepulice at those times essumed to wards the prisoners, the magistrates deemed it prudent to keep the time of the present examination a secret, and their intention to proceed with it was only made known to the press and to the parties actually engaged in the conduct of the case. It will be remembered that when she was brought up about three weeks since the poor girl was a complete skeleton, only weighing 59165. in her clothes; her appearance on Saturday was greatly improved. Mr. Brice, the clerk to the justice, stated that in that short pe•iod she had gained 191 b. As soon as the prisoners were placed at the bar, the girl was accommodated with a seat in the witness-box, and having been sworn, she stated the case; but while under ex aminat on the poor girl became exhausted and excited, and Mr. Bernard, the surgeon in attendance upon her, expressing his opinion that she was not in a fit state to be questioned any further, the prisoners were again remanded, the magis trates expressing their readiness to take responsible sureties for their re-appearance. No bail being forthcoming, they were removed in custody, and the poor girl was driven back to the station-house. MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.—An inquest was held on Saturday at Guy's Hospital, before Mr. W. Payne and a jury, as to the death of Charles Palmer, aged 43, a cab proprietor and driver, wh o di e d f rom the effects of in juries received on the Derby night under circumstances of a very mysterious shwas er. It appeared that the deceased recently resided in the Old Kent-road, .and on the Derby day was engaged with his cab in conveying persons to and from various points on the road, whereby, it was stated, he had received about 41. At a late hour the deceased stopped at a t üblic house near Cheam, were he was engaged by Jemmy Welsh, Ramesh, and other well-known pugilists, to convey them to London at half-a-crown each. They gave deceased some meat, bread, &c., and proceeded on their way home, when the deceased received some injury by falling from the box of the cab, or by other means, at present us known to the police. He was taken to Guy's Hospital, where he had every attention paid to him, but he expired on Wednesday from severe injuries to the spine, fiacture of the leg, and other violence ; no doubt caused by a fall. The sistar of the deceased stated that before her brother expired be informed her that he had teen "hocussed, and robbed by some persons who had been in the cab, by whom also he was br .tally ill-treated by being pushed off the cab. The co roner was informed that several persons engaged in the case were absent, but if time was allowed they, no doubt, would be forthcoming. Tne coroner thereupon consented to ad journ the proceedings for a few days, and the inquiry was accordingly adjourned. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—On Thursday after noon an inquest was held at Lytham (a favourite watering place about 12 miles from Preston), on the body of Hannah Jowitt, 20 years of age. who, together with Thomas Smith, aged 29, was drowned while on a pleasure excursion on the River Ribble. It is said that the deceased, who were fellow servants in the establishment of Dr. Winstanley, of the West Cliff, Preston, were betrothed to each other, and were to have been married on the very day on which the inquisitions we , e held ever their remains. It appeared from the evidence that the d- ceased and four other persons left Preston in a boat, with the view of proceeding on a pleasure excursion to Ly tham. T.ie boat (which was in a good state of repair) WAS about 23 feet in the keel and 7 feet in the beam, and had re centl• been fitted with new soils; it belonged to two young men of the party, named John Eastham and John Blakey. They had proceeded, with a strong ebb tide, as far as Warton a village about three miles from Lytham), where the liver is some two or three miles in breadth, when in consequence, as is stated, of a sudden squall, the boat capsized, and the whole party were immersed in the water, being at the time within a few yards of the shore. Two poor men, named Anthony Jordan and Peter Lamb (who were gathering cockles on the sands within a short distance of the spot), rendered prompt and praiseworthy assistance; seizing a boat which lay at anchor close by, they were the fortuipiploa,brtrieonwm.nnineneaidntns of rescuing four of the party.

For the first 800 miles the land is mostly prairie, and fir for instant settlement; and one of the provisions of the Bill recommended by the Committees of Congress who have reported upon the subject is that not more than half the quantity granted on each side ►hall be sold in the first instance, the rat ' maining ha f being reserved to complete the work in tho,e districts where the Roil might prove poor. - Nut only. therefore, would each prolongation of the road na turally render more certain the comp!etion of the re maind.•r, but it would provide a fund that would place that result beyond all doubt. Gigantic as the scheme is, the simple calculations on which these conclusions are based are familiar to all who are acquainted with the rise and progress of the inland cities i•f America, and in this case the projector is to stake the reward of all his labours upon their suc cess. After the road shall have been completed and in operation, all the surplus lands or money are, according to the Bill which has been introduced, to belong to Mr. Whitney and his heirs; but there is no provision for any airect remuneration; and consequently, although every step of the work must benefit the nation, he cannot de rive anything except from its final triumph. The ultimate effects of such a land route between Europe and Asia, and its influence in still further ming ling the productions and races of the world, are to be regarded with equal interest in England and the United States. It has been unanimously reported upon by dif ferent Committees of the two Houses of Congress at different sessions, and has also been sanctioned by legis lative votes in about 20 of the individual States. The party warfare, however, of last session prevented a final r. solution from being arrived at, and consequently caused a delay which, as far as the United States are concerned, je•.parnizes the project. So rapid is the progress of set dement in the west, that the lauds in the neighbourhood of the route are fast filling up, and the contingency pre sents itself, that even before Congress will again meet they may be so far occupied as to put it out of the power of Government to make the needful grant. Looking at this possibility, attention has been turned to Canada, whence a feasible route has long been considered to exist from Quebec to Vancouver's Island. In the offers understood to have been made to Mr. Whitney the pos sible adoption of the latter course has consequently been ' taken into account, the proposal being to furnish him with the necessary capital for the first 10 miles of the line (in consideration for a share of the results contin gent upon its final completion), whether it may pass througn American or British territory, supposing a similar grant of the latter could be obtained. For the present, it appears tie has declined to enter into any ar rangement, preferring to wait until the next session of Congress; but it is satisfactory to believe that his bold conception is now sufficiently appreciated on both sides to insure that it will not be suffered to fail for want • f RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

MEETING of 11w AVA7'iOAAL SOCIETY. It is with no smell gratlficittion that we find ourselves enal.led to aunuui.ce to our readers the fact, that at the meeting of the Natioual Society on Wednesday next, a resolution will be moved ou behalf of the commit e by Lord R-desdale, immediately after the reception e f th e rep art. which is calculated to unite the votes of all tt e friends of the soviet) and promoe rs of Cnu-ch education, and which will. we le p-, soper,ede the resolutious and counter-, esolutions of which notic , has been given. Lord Retiesdsle'e resolution expresses revet ut the restric tions continued to be imp ,sed by the Commutee of Council on the founders of Church school., aid at the same time adet rts to the cowls, tied co-ouerution of the National Society with the Cotnwatee f Council, as a ground of setisfaction. It is not impossible that mt n of extreme views, weddrd to parry strife, may take exceptions to this resolution, either on the ground that it identifies the seciety with the demand for greater freedom to the f. enders of Church schools, or, on the other hand, on the ground ef its being too conciliatory towards the Committee of Council. But sober minded and rffl-cting men will not regret the fut. that pending the dispute a large portion of the Parlia mentary grant heti been appropriat , d to purposes of Church education, and will deem the recognition by the society, with the full concurrence of the c; mmittee, of the principle that greater freedom aught to be ac corded to the founders of Church schools, more likely to condace to the ultimate attainment of that freedom, than a party victory within the society. The time cannot be far distant whee, with a Government more favourable to the Church, and a Parbeinentary Committee appointed to investigate the whole-question in all its bearings, the Church will have full justice done her; and with this prospect before them the members of the society would act most unwisely if they were to encourage any further agitation of controverted topics within its own bosom. We trust that this will be felt by the great majority ef the members present on Wednesday; and that, instead of the unseemly, though inevitable, a rife which hay cha racterised its annual meetings for the lest few )ears, there will be a unanimous, or all but unanimous, resolve to concentrate the united strength of its members upon the vigorous end efficient discharge of this great work for which the society was originally established.—John Bull.

LlTPatooc, MAT 31. —The Corn Exchange on Friday was pretty well attended by millers and dealers. Fresh qualities of wheat were in fair segues , and commanded fully Tuesday's prices. French sack flour was dull of sale ; the chief attention this week has been directed to the secondary qualities of Ame rican and Canadian flour, of which several thousand barrels changeu hands the last two or three (lass. at 18s 9d to 19s per basset; yesterday there was none good and sound to be hal uncer 19s 6d to it s. Oats scarcely supported the rates of Tuesday, but oatmeal was no e , sier. Barley, beans, and peas in small supply, and each quite as dear. Indian corn was in less request, and prices weaker ; the sales of best American yellow were at 3Us to 30s 6d per 4801 b. We have a change to milder weather to-day. Prices stand unaltered, with moderate demand for con , umption. AIANCHESTER. May 31. Without anything approaching to activity, the trade throughout the week has been of a steady consum 'Live character, ao d previous prices were well main tained for all articles except oats, which were somewhat easier to purchase. With the exception of a further fair supply of oats from Ireland, the imports of English and Irish produce into Liverpool and Runcorn are most trifling, a d from abroad the chief arrivals are of Indian corn, those of wheat and flour being only to a very moderate amount. At our market this morning w heat fully supported the currency of this day se'n night. Of choice fresh-wade English flour the quantil offer ing was small, and in the business passing extreme rates were realized for such ; United States and Canadian commanded fair share of attention, and any change in prices was in favour of sitters, whilst French moven off slowly, but could not be obtained on lower terms. Oats must be noted the turn lower ;. but oatmeal, although in limited request, was not any cheaper. NOTTINGHAM, May 31 —Farmers are now aexiousll looking out for rain. but hitherto the crops have not suffered much injury for want of it, even in the light sandy district round Mansfield. There was a small supply of wheat from the growers to-day, and last week's prices were fully supported, but the business done was not large. 1 3eans were Is per quar ter dearer. Ua s maintained their previous value.

CORK, MAY 30. The supplies of home grain continue small to fall off. The receipts for the week are only—Wleat, 110 barrels; barley, 102 barrels; oats, 465 barrels. There is no alteration in value. In prime foreign wheat we have had a rather less active business passing, but Egyptian and other inferior de scriptions continue to meet a tree sale at last week's advance. There is DO barley offering. Oats, the stocks of which are rapidly running low, are in good demand at an improvement of 3d to 6.1 per barrel. 11 e quote the value of white, lls 9d to IYS ; of black, Ms 9d to IL; per barrel, free on board. In tine flour a large consumption is going on, and there is a steady sale in the article for immediate uses, and at late rates. Coarser descriptions continue to sell very freely. The business passing in Indian corn is rather r s rimed, and, although we cannot quote any alteration in prices, the market, as regards this article, is quiet. The general mercantile trade of the city is far from brisk, bra we look forward to its receiving a favour able impetus should the fav , urable anticipcions, respecting the coning harvest, be realised. tiarrets.
