In addition to the system of granting a;nnuitiee, it is proposed_fas sbon as a sufficient sum can be collected for that purpose) to build an asylum a short distance from London for the aged annuitants. The generous assistance of the benevolent is earnestly solicited to wards this object, the Christian propriety of which it is impossible to s. doubt. Aged persons of respectability with small annuities are evi dently unable to procure for themselves lodgings at all partaking of the same character for comfort as their former abodes. In the case • of females whose fortunes have fallen into decay, there can be no doubt that this is an intense aggravation of their misfortunes, for a mean lodging in a low neighbourhood, with all its associations of misery, if Rot of crime (as must too often be the case), will indeed form a heavy source of painful degradation to one whose former lot • has • been " cast in the pleasant places." What can be more desir . able, then, than to place such persons in comfortable and respectable dwellings, where the decencies and proprieties of life can be pro perly maintained, and the old age of the inmates preserved from all those disagreeable circumstances to which we have adverted? It has been considered that the fifil intention of the Society has scarcely been produced until this last object has been accomplished. Donors of 51. or upwards to the Building Fund are entitled to the privileges of Lite Governors, with two votes at every election, and for every additional 51. they may procure, so that ladies or gentle men collecting 51. or upwards for the Building Fund are entitled to the same privileges pro rata. • Persons collecting 501. or upwards for the Building Fund, or ob taining Ten Life Governors to this Institution, shall, for every such 501., be constituted Life Governors, in addition to those benevolent persons who may be thus co •stituted by their respective donations. Contributors to the Building Fund are placed precisely in the same position another Governors and subscriberN.

Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—During the past week the weather has been all that could be desired, and the country in every direction wears a most beautiful ap pearance ; rain,. however, is much needed, and many com plaints reach us about spring corn and hay. Imports are mo derate, as are also transactions. Millers are cautious in their buyings, and holders show little disposition to give way. The only article really in demand is perfectly fresh red wheat, and of that our stock is almost nil. Our farmers brought a short supply of wheat to this day's market, and for first-rate sam ples fully Is more money waspaid, a still greater advance being demanded by many leading farmers. But little doing in fo reign for lack of the right article, inferior or in the least de gree out of conditioned samples meeting no favour. A good demand for grinding barley, but here again " nosy samples" cannot be placed. Oats are dearer and scarce. No transac tions reported in beans and peas, but quotations supported, and More inquiry. Linseed is unchanged in value. Linseed cakes are rather dearer, owing to the fine hot weather ; a good many have been sold to-day, at our quotations. Rape cakes slow sale and lower, 75s to 76s being to-day's price. Bones are very difficult to sell, and to-day's prices 85s to 87s 6d; for the best parcels 90s asked, but not obtainable. The following are the present prices of grain s.

DAILY NEWS.e,There was a doubt at, first whe ,ther the great ParliamentarY debate should be oh the wide field of Whig foreign,policy, cr on 'the narrow circle of, IhteGrivele question. It was decided late on Aonday night that it should be neither one nor the - other, but that it should be a single combat between one statesman holding office, and another who hoped to step into his shoes, after slaying him not fairly in front, but by stabbing him from behind. Sir James Graham epprouched his antagonist with the most smiling face and the warmest profusion of friendship, which was no sooner uttered than he proceeded to stab with an em poisoned dagger, seeking to show that the Minister was not merely a rash politician, but a mendacious and tricky one. Mr. Osborne, in the commencement of yesterday's ,debate, did full justice tre the malignant nature ;of this attack, and with originality of point and wit, eharacterised the twisting!, and the slaverings, and the fascination, by which the serpent preluded to devouring his victim. It was reserved for Lord Palmerston himself to give a full and noble (waiver to this his personal slanderer, as at the same time to his more open, and more natural, and mote generous ante gonists. No one could have heard the necessarily long, minute, and detailed statement made last night by the Foreign Minister without aoknowledging that the refu tation of every particle of Lord Stanley's special plead ing was so complete as to leave not one single accusation tuirefated. The reply of the Minister to Sir James Graham was as complete, and far more animated. The unblushing audacity or forgetfulness with which Sir James Graham impugned the Minister's policy in Por tugal, which he himself bad approved of, were hu morously exposed. The complacency with which the Honourable Baronet took credit for the negotiations respecting Belgium, and distinguished them from more recent negotiations, because, as he said, they were conducted with the consent of the great powers, was singularly disturbed by- the showing that the chief measure; of the Belgian negotiations were resolved upon and executed, not only with the dissent, but in face of the menacing armies, of the said great powers. The miserable chicanery about Sir Henry i3ulwer and Master Peel was as felicitously exposed. No portion of Lord Paltnerston's speech was so happy, or called down such universal applause. as that in which he turned an argument of Sir James Graham against his opponents. That speaker, in utter and in reckless ie ' norance of the subject on which he spoke, had accused Lord Palmerston of having plotted the downf ii;of M. Guizot and of Louis Philippe, and having actually com passed it by the effect of his hostility. Snub absurdity was not worth refutation. Were it the case, however; said the Right Hon. Secretary, that a knot of foreign conspirators should have joined in an attempt to pull down any Minister of France, wo may he sure that the French people aro sufficiently prow], just, and noble, but to attach themselves the more to any Minister who was thus made the victim of foreign hatred and intrigue. Au enthusiastic cheer from more than one side of the House answered this up peal. It is, however, not to be concealed, that the chances of Ministers obtaining the majority that is re quisite for their honourable hold of power has been lessened by the malignant attack of Sir James Graham, and will be diminished by the expected onslaught of Sir Robert Peel. After delibereti n with the Duke of Wellington yesterday, that vestry potentate has, at length, resolved to take the field, with the idea that, when ho has triumphed, the weaker part of the liberals will rather obey him•than give a chance to the protectionists. A restoration of Peel will, certainly, be a singular result of a protectionist and Lords emeute. It is said, however, tout so disgusted and indignant is Lord John Russell with the manifest intrigue, and with the development of the long-concocted plot, that he meditates himself ap pealing to Vie country upon the merits of his foreign policy, and of dissolving forthwith, if he has but a scant majority. 4 [ADVERTISEMENT.] —The new Tooth-pick Tooth brush, thoroughly cleansing between the teeth, when used up and down, and polishing the surface when used crossways, the hair warranted never to come out ; in four strengths— viz., No. 1. hard, No. 2, less hard, No. 3, medium, No. 4, soft.

Sir,— On Monday the 24th, began the great inquest on the issue the Lords• have raised. The Mt.mber for Sheffield ably introduced his Resolution. The moment of most inOrest afterwards, was when the Member for Ripo❑ rose; and great was the anxiety to know what course he•took. A profusion of expressions of respect gave intimation of vi hat was 'to be the end. On the whole he was more -hostile than effective. The id, a ap peared to gainground, and was subsequently recognised in debate," that ho aimed at being Minister. Th►e Mein• tiers for Abingdon and Oxford performed the part of two leading counsel at an Ass;z-, in clezieg the ground. On Tuesday the debate was renewed. The Foreign Minister rosy at ten o'clock and spoke till half-past two. The case rapidly assumed a new face under his bands. As regards the Greek question, a circumstance came to light, which it is only astonishing s►hou!d have been so long in the back-ground. The origin of the Greek quarrel lies simply in the fact that the Greek Monarchy has resisted to the utmost the contract under which it had the assistance of England to its formation, and which bound it to the establishment of representative gosYrnment. It may have been forced by its own sub jects to do something nominally in that direction, but it has been colourable and hollow, and hostility to every thing directly or by implication English, has marked its progress. The '•battle," as Nap.ile•in used to say, is pretty well opened out. We have the party of Austria and protec Lion on one side, and the people of England on the other. A people. who aye neither Austrian nor protectionist, will have a sore time of it it they are beaten. Inferences worth preserving,- from the general tenor of the Foreign Minister's reminiscences and revels. tions, are that iu almost every late case of struggle, between the despotic and representative principles in Europe, the result would have licea reversed by the constitutional party's closing with the earliest offer ; and that,the maximum of weakness,on the despotic side, is at the moment of the first striking success against it, but after this the chances alter in favour of the des.; potism. On the conclusion-of-the. Forelgn-Miaister"a speech, the debate was adjourned till Thursday. made an error in my last letter. The occasion when the Government went on notwithstanding a vote of the Lords, did not relate to Holland and Belgium, but to Portugal. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN OLD REFORMER. London, June 26, 1850. POST-OFFICE SUNDAY REGULATIO LYS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR, — Although the mischievous effect of the late puritanical interference with the Christian us.-3 of the Sabbath is tdo obvious apparently to need any illustra tion, yet, as there are individuals whose obtuseness intellect is such as to disqualify them from understand ing the plainest proposition without the aid of a practical demonstration, I send you the following instance, which occurred to myself, while the system of intelfarenee was tolerable compared with what it will b 3 under Lord Ashley's pharisaical resolution. While Captain Austin's squadron lay in Long Hope, Orkney, in momentary expectation of sailing, I was anxiously looking out for a letter from one of the officers, which I expected to arrive by the afternoon north mail on the Sunday bufore the expedition finally sailed. Toe afternoon delivery of the letters coming by the north mail has been long suspended on Sunday; but the post ma,,ter has upon all occasions delivered any letters for which a special messenger might be cent, as the fact of such a messenger 'being employed gave prima fuck evidence of the urgency of the case. Nut aware of uuy interference with this customary and important in dulgence, I sent as usual a note to the postmaster, st ,ting that I expected letters of importance, which re• quired to have their contents noticed by the London mail,of that evening; and, to my astonishment, received 'an answer from. the postmaster — = who is proverbially obliging to all,wso have anything to do with his office 7,1 That The ,bags; it was true, were in the .office, but they, were .ieale,d,..up, 40c1 ordera were upon, no ac cougt; to_ the m, or takeout :their contents fir e...t animation or delivery before lattiniday morning." c imp a aterial.pliat the.litatiire l of the urgency re quiring, Preiript ghat and' notice of the letters may have been. as it does not affect the case.

June 21. NON-DELIVERY of,NEWSPAPERS ON SUNDAY. Last night a meeting of newspaper proprietors and their representatives was held at Peel's Coffee-house, Fleet-street, for the purpose of taking into consideration the stoppage of the delivery of newspapers on Sunday. The chair was taken on the occasion by Mr. Ingram, of the Illustrated News, who was supported by Mr. J. K. Chapman, of the Sunday Times; Mr. Ledger, of the Era; Messrs. Serie, Wrightson, and Wood, Weekly Dispatch; and several other gentlemen_ connected with the weekly press. Mr. SCOTT, the secretary, having read the minutes of the former meeting,' Mr. SERLE read a petition complaining of the hard ship of the new postal arrangement, from the fact that it had a tendency to favour one class, and to injure ano ther. Mr. Serle moved that the petition be adopted, printed, and sent to the various newspaper offices for signatures, and presented to the House of Counons, by Mr. Roebuck, M.P., or some other Member of Par liament. Mr. JAZ CHAPMAN remarked, that previous to their adopting the petition, they should have the opinion of a greater number of their own class; and also, that they should see how the proprietors and conductors of the :morning pipers were inclined upon the subject. He would second the resolution. After a short discussion, the resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. TH9luss then proposed that a deputation should wait upon the first Lord of the Treasury, and the Poit toaster-General, to urge upon them the necessity that existed for rescinding the recent Post office regulation, and that the committee be empowered to avail them elves of the service; of such Members of Parliament as were fmvourable to the movement. Mr. WOOD seconded the resolution, which was unani mously carried. Mr. LEDGER then proposed the following resolution:— " That the meeting be empowered at an early day, to ts public meeting on the subject." Mr: BUCtIANNAN - seconded the resolution, remarking that the public meeting should be public in the must ex tended senso of the word. R !solution carried. Mr. SERL4 was of opinion that a public meeting in Llndon should be their last resource. Mr. WYLD concurred in this view, stating that if they did so, those parties who read a newspaper on a Sunday would perhaps neglect to attend the meeting, when the Sabbatarians might muster in force and crush them. Mr. BUCIIANNAN thought that of so important a mea sure the public would not take.such a narrow view. _ MY. LEDGER proposed a YOU) of thanks to the Chairman. Mr. WYLD seconded it. The resolution was carried unanimously, and the meet ing sepratt d. IRELAND. DESECRATION OF THE SABBATH. DUBLIN, TUESDAY.—Complaints of the last postal ob stacle are pouring in fast and furious. The provincial press is in open arms against - this inroad on property; and little wonder, seeing th a the majority publish on Saturday, and that the non-delivery. until the Monday following puts them altogether out of the make), as the bulk of their readers is composed of farmers and country alio' keepers, who have no time to spare for literary pur e suits beyond an hour or so on the day of rest and ( n Ireland) of recreation. The Dublin Weekly Freeman, a paper of large circu lation, had to print its number on Friday evening, so as to reach the provinces on Saturday morning. By this ad mirable arrangement the subscribers were left minus all the inteligvuce conveyed by the London morning jour nals of Friday, which arrive the same night, but at too late an hour to be made available for the country. But what is more to the purpose, the fast day of the grand tohiethmeo Halifa x until m ai l, k an e d o then allhtahned a s r busy l experiment was one of unusual labour within the walls ot the post-office, the whole staff' having been hard a t work l u at e t i r i intfsr from b e ,t s -tldayar part of the day was consumed. • THE POST-OFFICE.—Oue trial of the new Sunday regulation. has proved, so far as the LinColnshire people are concerned, its utter failure; and lettets from various parte of the country show that it has given equal dissatisfaetion: everywhere. The mingled tyranny and cant of the whole affair will be evident on reflection s persons who conscien tiously object to receiving or reading letters and newspapers on the Sunday have never been compelled to do so, but they have no right to bind others down to Cher own narrow views; the regulation will certainly be , evaded until the " bare bones" louse of Commons revokes its resolution.—Boston Herald. • In consequence of the failure of the bank of Messrs. Nash and Neale, at Reigate, the London and County Bank have opened a branch at that place. SUNDAYS ,Grays ( / TRICE SD. TfiE FRENCH 'REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.

The Moniteur Algerien of the 20th contains detail's , of some military movements, but the only point of any interest in them is the announcement of the burn- 1 , ing down of the Arab village of Ouldja, and the dis persal of the inhabitants, with a loss of thirty killed, in consequence of a refusal to give up, some Arabs who had killed one French soldier and seriously wounded another. A conspiracy on an extensive scale has been dis covered in Oran, Algeria: The plan of the conspi rators was to sein the Fort La Monne and the Trea. sury, and to 'establish a PrOvisional Government.

GREECE Letters from Athens of the 10th, addressed to the Augsburg Gazette, state that the Russian Cabinet has re-olved to abandon its portion of the interest on the Greek debt until Greece shall have recovered from the losses caused by the English blockade. A letter from Athens, in the German Journal of Frank fort, says, that owing to the present situation of Greece, the Emperor of Rubio. has proposed to the two other protecting powers of Greece (England and France) not to exact tom the Greek Government the payment of the interest on, or any instalment of, the Greek loan during four years.

'. he .Ric m( h )i na° t nd lively interest in the rowing circles, came off yesterday afternoon, and was one of the most spirited contests upon record. The competitors are well known to our aquatic readers as the two beet new men of last season, whose pretensions as fresh candi dates fir aqutitic fame were then first brought into no tice, Cole being the winner of Doggett',i coat and badge, and Chitty as the successful competitor for the coat, badge, and freedom annually given by Mr. Evan Morris at iLe Thames regatta. This, as ri el 1 as the " famous comedian':;" bequest, has for years pest brought out th• he, t young men of the day, and as a diversity of opinion existed with respect to pre-ernieence, both men soon found backers, and the race of yesterday was the result. The match w as for 50/., the distance from Putney-bridge to the Ship at Mortlake, and there had 13, , (n no less than three steamers chartered ,to accompany it—the Childe. Harold, Lalla Rookh, and . Citiaan K—which conveyed those desirous of 'witness inethe event. The men went to the stations shortly before three o'clock—Chitty in the Middlesex side of the centre arch of Putney-bridge, and his opponent at the other. Both appeared in cspital condition, Chitty having an advantage in length and size. They started at the same instant and evenly, but owing to the 'peed at which the first two or three strokes were taken by Cole he had to pati,e for a moment while his extremely light boat righted her , ell. Chitty t oo k a s li g ht l ea d, but half a-dozen dasliiti4 strokes of Cole's, soon brcmght them together, and then a most detarglined aPd beau- Val race followed. Off the Star and Gi t rter .

DAVIES AND FIAMNIETI LANE, Or BIRMINGHAM, FOR 1001.-I'he interesting contest between the veteran John Lane, who for nearly ten years has reposed upon A 1 is laurels, pursuing the busy occupation of an L. V., i n the .‘ hardware metropolis," and Tom Davies, of the same bo rough, took place yesterday, near ~App)eby HOuse, 26 miles from Birmi gham. A gallant battle of 39 rounds, occupy ing 1 hour and 7 minutes, terminate' in the defeat of the re nowned Hammer Lane, who displayed but few of the qualities in hitting, rallying, and in-fighting, which onte distinguished him. Yet the true courage and endurance were there, and he at last succumbed only to superior atreugth, youth, and con stitution. The general feeling,' almost 'prejudice, was so strong in favour of the lasing man, that '2 to 1 went begging at the commencement of the affair. Ac thjs annual me±ting of the South Australian Banking Company the report and accounts were adopted, and a dividend was declared at the rate of 6 per cant., free of income-tax. Mr. E. Divett, M.P., presided, and replied to a variety of interrogatories put by.a shareholder, who complained of insufficiency of information, as, the accounts were at present furnished. The views, expressed by the chairman were generally concurred in, and on behalf of the board it was fu r th er exp l a ined, that while they w ere exer eking every ne e df u l eco nomy, the business of the b an k was steadily increasing, and the gross results afforded cause for congratulation. The usual complimentary votes to directors and officers were then passed, and before the close of the meeting a tribute was paid to Mr. AugeAd,vh o h as b een long closely: identified with South. Australia and its progress, he being about to return to the colony to take up his permanent residence.
