HOUSE OF COMMONS.---MONDAY Mr.,O'CoNNELL, in reference to the charge of his having distrained upon his tenantry, in April, for rent due in March said, that Mr. Sergeant Jackson had given the name of a person named Twiss, as his authority for the fact, but the learned sergeant added, that he had often seen Mr. Twiss, on the record jury of Kerry, but that he did not know either his Christian name or his address. Mr, §ergeant but dif not k he sal In what year KSON said he had often seen Mr. Twiss, s Christian name or address, nor could the occurs erica took place.

The right hon. baronet, the other evening, stated it to be his opinion that the government had two bud gets in contemplation, either of whichwould have been brought forward according to circumstances. There was net the sha dow of foundation for such a charge. With respect to the - course he now meant to pursue, it was substantially the same as he had stated after the division.

(Cheers.) le question of dissolution was not a proper question to be discussed in this house the division oa voted, w Now. after Drning last, when 623 members one in favour of the right _ hon. baronet, and when only eight members were unaccounted for—eight who certainly could not be depended upon by either party—it must be obvious that no steady majority would be found for either party in the present house of Commons. Hear, hear.) And such being the case it ap- peared to him as clear as any proposition in politics did, that the only method of solving the doubt which at present existed was to allow the country to decide upon those clues .tions in which they were so deeply interested. (Cheers from the ministerial benches.) The noble lord concluded by moving the order of the day for the house resolving itself into a committee of supply. The order of the day having been read, fir R. REP'. said the noble lord had alluded to the re . ' , e (Sir R. Peel) had made relative to the bud ust , e allowed to state that the prevailing ex '' was, that the present budget , recently adopted. He (Sir R. as intended to have been announced in hrc on the opening of parliament, no 'tense for delaying such an inten -c ‘feated on the sugar duties. He sharks which t preisien amongst al ]gad certainly been Ye r Peel) thought if iz the Speech from socasio —he could se Throw- 7t Peel) did not wish to provoke, on the present say discussion on the corn-laws, as he plainly saw rise by adopting such a course lord had said he intended to sew parliament. (Hear.) With the inconver at the presen appeal to leasure he would offer no opinion. WVith her Majesty's ministers rested the responsibility of taking such a course. If, however, that step was to be taken, undoubtedly the prerogative of the Crown might be put into operation, and an appeal made to the country. If, however, that was decided upon, no time ought to be lost. (Hear.) The present parliament, under the circumstances of the case, could not satisfactorily legislate in any disputed matter. No time ought to be lost before convoking a new parliament. He wss ;ware the Sugar Duties Bill must be passed, and that provision must be made for the exigencies of the state (hear, hear) ; but he repeated that the new par liament ought to be calla together without delay, the ques tion of the corn-laws and other important questions which had ' to be settled. (Rear, hear.) The en agitated private eonveniet when the public trusted the noble should be los )vernment of :5 - of members ought not to be consulted good was at stake. (Hear, hear.)

On former occasions parliament aln-ays ald be called together as early -a3 noble lord would give a similar .anion. (Hear, hear.) He (Sir yen, he - would not oppose an lie service ; but if t only agree to granting the estimates for three months. He ► ministers to give an assurance that no time calling the new parliament together. If given, he would withdraw all opposition were asked for. Ye that assurance must press upon skould be lost in that assurance wa to the time the at Lord J 1, that knowing the opinion of Lord Melbourne he could assure the house that it was the inten tion of ministers to advise her Most Gracious Majesty to gall the new parliament together as early as it was possible. (Hear.) He felt deeply the difficulty of remaining in office flthe .the: my three weeks er sphere for its order-col to bee laws. This obserr. This led to some discussion, in the course of which, The SOLICITOR-GENERAL remarked, that, by law, the clerk of the peace was bound to furnish a copy of the regis ter, at a reasonable rate, to any one who asked for it. In the case before the house, the clerk had required the extra vagagant price of .Z 25. He was not, however, willing to act harshly towards the clerk, aed would move that he be peremptorily directed to furnish the required copy on Thursday. Sir R. INGus objected to the establishment of a precedent so dangerous as that of printing the register at the expense of the public. That would be t' throw on the country an expense which should be exclusively borne by the county of Hertford. Sir R. PEEL thought the proposition of the Solicitor- General sufficiently stringent for the vindication of the pri vileges of the house ; and Mr. Duncombe having withdrawn his motion, that of the Solicitor-General was adopted. The clerk of the peace, on being ordered to furnish the copy on Thursday, said, he could not do so in less than three weeks. On being pressed, he admitted that, by putting it in several hands, it might be done, but he would only promise that he would furnii.li the copy as soon as he could. He was di rected to withdraw, and a peremptory order was issued that he should furnish the copy on Thursday. Mr. C. W. WYNN moved a resolution, to the effect that bster for bribery at the recent election for St. Albans. ANDFORD said, that the evidence against Dr. Web- ster was given in such a mariner as would not w invest! It was his Mr. Sandford's) ation much further than it house to direct a prosecution desire to have carried the _ was allowed to go. Mr. MILDMAY thought that the house would be guilty of partiality in singling out this case for prosecution, when they passed over so many worse cases. Colonel CONOLLY said that the flagrancy in this case was gross and palpable, and it was not because others might have been allowed to escape, that there was, therefore, to he a general impunity for guilt of this description. The skill with which this sort of iniquity was carried on, always keep ing the candidate clear of being implicated, rendered it ne cessary that when a case was brought home, the punishment should be certain and exemplary. Bribery, in fact, had be come a perfect trade, and something should be done to put a stop to it. _ _ . Mr. WARBURTON contended that the best way of putting a stop to bribery would be the adoption of the vote by ballot. He did not like these sort of prosecutions, for they would have no effect in preventing the recurrence of bribery. Mr. WARD said it was affectation on the part of the con servatives to bring this matter forward, for he had no doubt but at the approaching election, they would be very ready to do the very thing they now condemned. Sir R. H. INGLIS thought the evidence was quite strong enough to justify a trial, and if the house wished to maintain its character with the country it would direct a prosecution. Considerable discussion followed, in which Lord SANDON, Sir T. COCHRANE, Mr. HUTT, and other members took part, after which The ATTORIsTRY-GXNERAL said the house would not ex pect him to give an opinion, nor would he vote upon this sub ject, and he only rose to say, that whatever course the house might direct him to pursue, he would cheerfully obey. Mr. C. W. WYNN, in reply, said the case was one which, when fairly brought under the cognisance of the house, it could not pass over without compromising its character with the country. Mr. WA'rtn gave notice, that on Friday next he would call the attention of the house to the reports on the Cambridge and Ludlow petitions. The motion was then agreed to without a division. Sir C. GREY moved for the appointment of a committee, to consider the fitness of her Majesty's territory of Labrador for a penal settlement. Under recent circumstances, he did not think it necessary to press his motion ; but he thought it right to draw the attention of the house to it, in order that it might be taken up hereafter. After a short conversation, the motion was negatived with out a division, Sir C. GREY declaring, that if he should have a seat in the next parliament, he would again bring the sub ject under consideration. Lord MORPETH moved for leave to bring in a bill for mak ing and maintaining railways in Ireland. His object was not to proceed with the bill during the present session, but merely to have the bill printed, in order that it might be understood by the public. Mr. SHAW supported the bill, without pledging himself to all its details. _ _ _ After a few observations from Lord STANLEY, Mr. Ser geant JACKSON, Mr. W. J. O'BRIEN, and other hon. mem bers, leave was given to bring in the bill. The other orders of the day being disposed of, the house adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNZSDAT Mr. WARD gave notice, that next Friday he should move that instructions be given to the Attorney -General to prose cute the agent at the late Cambridge election. Mr. Sergeant JACKSON again brought before the house the subject of Mr. O'Connell's having distrained his tenants for rent only one month due, and read a letter from Mr. Hobert Twigs, who repeated the whole charge, and named April, 1538 as the period at which it took place. Mr. O'CONNELL said, that the whole charge was an utter falsehood. He believed that Mr. Twiss had been a magis trate, that he had been unfortunate, and had availed himself of the benefit of the Insolvent Debtors' Act. In Kerry, Mr. Twiss was-well known for toe inaccuracy of his state ,e ments, and that he had been known for the last five a ,he should twenty years by the appellation of " Lying Bob Twiss.'' On the motion that the house go into committee on the Dog-cart Bill, Mr. PRYME moved the postponement of the committee to this day six months. Mr. WARBURTON seconded the motion, and Sir ROBERT INGLIS and Mr. EAST opposed it, when, a division taking place, the original motion:was carried by 141 against 30, and the bill went through committee. On the motion of Mr. CRESSWELL, that the house resolve itself into a committee to petition her majesty in support of the Danish claims, The SOLICITOR-GENERAL entered into a lengthened detail of the causes which had given rise to the present claims, and was of opinion that this nation had not the least right to in demnify the claimants. After some further discussion, the house went into com mittee, and the motion of Mr. Cresswell was agreed to, on the understanding that the Chancellor of the Exchequer would oppose the claims on the bringing up of the report. During the discussion on the bribery at elections bill, Co lonel SIBTHORP stigmatised the conduct of government in this instance, as in many others, as being idle, incompetent, and disgraceful ; that ministers were never in their places, even when their own bills were coming before the house. He supposed they were gone to amuse themselves by singing, dancing, and eating ; but he really thought if they were tired of governing the affairs of the nation, they ought to give it to those men who were willing and perfectly able to conduct them. Mr. F. MA ULE said that it was not true that her Majesty's ministers were never in their places, to attend to the business of the house, and that the assertions made by the gallant member opposite were beneath his contempt. Colonel SIBTHORP immediately arose and left the house, when Mr. W. WYNN rose to order, and moved that Col. Sib thorp be ordered to attend, and take his seat in the house. On the gallant colonel's returning and taking his seat, The SPEAKHR said, that be understood that one hon. gen tleman had taken offence at some expressions used by ano ther hon. member, which he hoped that hon. member would retract. He always paid great attention to expressions which might be used, and, at the time, he certainly was of opinion that the remarks of the hon. gentleman were offensive, but that he afterwards thought the hon. gentleman, beginning his speech in other words, had retracted the offensive ex pression. Mr. F. MAULZ said, that he was very sorry if any expres sion had fallen from him of a personai nature to the gallant member opposite, but he certainly didintend to express him self strongly on the subject after the observations which had fallen from that hon. gentleman. Colonel SIIITHORP said that, as a public man and a man of honour he had a right to protect himself from insult ; but as the hon. gentleman opposite had retracted the observations, he was perfectly satisfied. On the motion for proceeding with the report of the Ad ministration of Justice (No. 1) Bill, Sir E. SIIGDEN moved the insertion of a clause to prevent the operation of the bill coming into effect until October, as it would be highly improper to place so much judicial patronage at the disposal of a government who had not the confidence of the House of Commons. Lord J. RUSSELL said he thought the hon. gentleman had already offered enough of opposition to the bill without bringing forward the present clause, which, if carried, would have the effect of casting a brand upon the Lord Chancellor —(cries of " No, no"—who did not deserve such treatment after the satisfactory manner he had disposed of the patron age under his care. _ _ _ - Sir R. PEEL denied any idea of casting a brand upon Lord Cottenham, and said that if her Majesty's government post poned the passing of the bill till the next meeting of parlia ment, he was prepared to enter into such an arrangement. After some discussion the house divided, and Sir E. Sug den's motion was carried by a majority of 101 against 83. Lord J. RUSSELL said he could not think of proceeding with the bill after what had just taken place. He should, therefore move the further consideration of the bill to this Sir DE LACY EvANs and Mr. VILLIERS contended that the opposition which the bill met with was merely for the sake of patronage. They thought that the gentlemen on the opposite side were blameable to refuse justice to the country, merely for the sake of party feeling. Lord STANLEY and Mr. PEMBERTON defended themselves from the imputation of acting on party grounds. Mr. \VARLET said that the noble lord had acted in the best possible manner under the present circumstances, and that it ought not to be forgot that it was not the radical party who were attacking the prerogatives of the crown, and that if the present course was persisted in the crown would shortly be in the most imminent danger. Sir R. PEEL said that the present proceeding was only an attempt to carry on the government of the country by an executive not possessing the confidence of the present House of Commons, and that after the late division there were but two courses for the ministers to pursue—either resignation or immediate dissolution. After some further discussion, the motion of Lord John Russell was agreed to. The rest of the business was then disposed of, and the house adjourned until this day, (Friday,) at one o'clock. DREADFUL SUICIDE. — About a quarter before four on Monday afternoon, a policeman on duty outside the yard of Chelsea Church, London, observed a person on the top of the tower, apparently preparing to precipitate himself to the ground, and a second afterwards he threw himself off, and came down with terrific velocity on the west side of the tower. Several persons were immediately on the spot, and lifted the unfortunate man up, but life was found to be quite extinct. The stones all round were covered with blood. The height of the tower of Chelsea New Church is nearly 200 feet. A shell was procured, in which the body of the de ceased was placed, and conveyed to the workhouse adjacent, where a medical gentleman examined it, and found the skull fractured, shoulders dislocated, and the legs broken—in fact, the body was literally " smashed ". ELECTIONS IN ST A FFORDSHIRE. — The Staffordshire Ga zette speaks with the greatest confidence, that at least, eleven " good men and true" will be sent up from the various coun ties and boroughs. The number of members is sixteen, and at present half of them are radicals, and the others conserva tive. The accounts from all the districts of the country are equally gratifying, and in many instances much more so. _ . ~.. Some of the ministerial journals affect to be eves' jocose upon their patrons having been defeated by only a majority of ONE ; but if they will be kind enough to consider that the minority ceraprises at least 30 of themselves and other place holders, and as many more of O'Connell's serfs, who are compelled to d o t h e agitator's bidding, they will be com pelled to admit, that though an actual majority of one, the list of the division shows it to have been a virtual majority of at least 60 against them. 6. Because the agricultural labourer advanced in life, would, when thrown out of employ, be banished from home, from the spot he loves, and must go to the workhouse or starve, as he would be unable to follow any new occupation. 7. Because the amount in the Savings' Banks belonging to the poor has increased under the operation of the corn laws more than one third. 8. Because a reduction of wages, even with a low price of corn, will prevent the labourer from obtaining even that por tion of the other essentials of life which may now be within his reach. 9. Because I would not willingly exchange the hale peasant for the pallid artisan and sickly though praiseworthy mechanic, and see the country one entire workshop. 10. Because the object of the monopolist manufacturer is to screw wages down to a low point, so as to reduce thc Eng lish artisan and labourer to the condition of the German serf, and so to enable him to produce goods to compete with foreigners who have superior facilities to ourselves, the profits facturer's g liness of gain „, I]. Because, although the alteration of these laws may possibly lead to an increase of the quantity of manufactured exports, which now amounts to about 40 or 50 millions sterling per annum, yet it will certainly tend to ruin the home trade, which is at present estimated at 600,000,000. 12. Because the export of British and Irish manufactures have greatly increased under the present system. 13. Because it is a fact, that in years when the importation of foreign corn has been inconsiderable, the exportation of manufactured goods has, notwithstanding, increased. 14. Because the repeal would ruin Ireland, which is .en tirely dependent on this country for a market for her agricul tural produce. 15. Because the Irish have literally perished with famine when the low price of corn, caused by opening the ports for foreign produce, has deprived them of employment. 16. Because, under a fixed duty of Bs. per quarter, (as pro posed by government,) the effect on high prices in a time of scarcity would be most terrible, and in a time of plenty, would be no protection to a British farmer. . . 17. Because, under the present system, as prices increase, the duty en foreign corn decreases, till at length it is admit ted free. 18. Because, for the last ten years, there has been less fluctuation in the price of corn here than in any other country. 19. Because a freed tax at all times imposed upon the necessaries of life would be a revenue unblessed by God and abhorred by man, and such as never could be exacted in this or any other country in seasons of scarcity or famine. 20. Because the supply of corn under the present system is sufficient for home consumption, and at an average price not exceeding that of our neighbours. 21. Because the farmer and landlord, with their capital diminished, will not have half the money to expend they now lay out amongst us. 22. Because their repeal would place us at the mercy of foreign countries, who, in case of war or bad harvest, may raise corn to any price they please, or stop the supply alto gether. 23. Because, by their repeal, seven or eight millions of acres of land will be thrown out of cultivation. 24. Because three-fourths of the population of this country derive their means of subsistence from agriculture. 25. Because the capital invested by agriculturists in the soil exceeds three thousand millions of pounds sterling !! ! 26. Because the amount of taxes annutlly paid by the agricultural classes is £6,433,575, vrhilc manufacturers, trades, and professions only contribute £3,021,187, or less than one-third of the whole amount. 27. Because, on the prosperity of agriculture is mainly dependent the prosperity of this country. 28. Because the agricultural produce now annually raised in this kingdom is valued at two hundred and forty-six mil lions, while the manufacturing is only one hundred and forty eight millions. 29. Because the agricultural interest has as just a right to protection as the manufacturing. 30. Because, during twenty-four years before the corn laws came into operation, the average price of wheat was 78s. per quarter ; and during the succeeding twenty-four years, from 1816 to 1840, only 60s. per quarter on the average. 31. Because we have the example of Rome before us, which, though it had subdued the world, yet its decay was accelerated by its dependance on foreigners for food. 32. Because, by a repeal, foreigners would drain us of our precious metals in payment for their corn. 33. Because in 1839, when corn was scarce in France and Italy and other European countries through a bad harvest, these powers prohibited its exportation, which, in a similar case, they would do again. . . 34. Because a great proportion of the money paid to the home grower of corn will be expended in purchasing the pro duce of the manufacturer, while it must be admitted that from the foreign grower the most you can expect back is only part. 35. Because the capital of this country, paid to the foreign corn states, has already enabled them to compete with us in the production of many important branches of manufacture, whereas, till lately, their supply was wholly derived from England. 36. Because. whatever fluctuation in price there has been under the present system, it has risen from the uncertainty of the seasons, equally uncertain in other countries as this. 37. Because the greatest supply of foreign corn that has ever been obtained during the greatest scarcity has never been equal to one-tenth of the consumption. 38. Because in the year succeeding that in which there has been a great influx of foreign grain, corn has always been at higher prices. 39. Because the repeal would turn our corn-fields into bar ren wastes, and our villages into union workhouses. 40. Because protection against the importation of foreign corn is necessary to balance the excess of duties, borne almost exclusively by the agriculturists, and only remotely affecting the capitalist, annuitant, or fundholder ; such as the mainte. nance of the Established Church, the poor, the highways, &c., &c., all of which are essential to our national happiness and security. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. (From the Railway Times.) GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY - OPENING.—This week kas been one big with the happiest hopes to the shareholders of the Great Western railway company, no le than three openings having been made on the lines connect with this splendid line. Great have been the exertions of all parties engaged in this undertaking, and heavy the ca made upon the shareholders, but we trust that there is n oneof them who, with the prospects now before them, won' ' willingly have diminished his stake by a single farthing. With parties acquainted with the statistics of travelling, th - Great Western railway has ever been a favourite, and we b v s been informed that so much more disposition is there in .h west country people to travel, that the present truffle ascer tained by the number of coaches licensed, is, in comparison to that on the Birmingham road. as three to two, or fifty per cent more, although we should certainly have expected that the preponderance of population to the north would have produced a difference the other way. In a short time the Box Tunnel will be completed, and in the meanwhile we con gratulate the shareholders on Monday's proceedings, the har binger, as we firmly believe, of many years of prosperity, and increasing dividends. The traffic on Monday was very large, and although that day was a holiday, we have no doubt that even the receipts on that occasion will soon be daily sur passed. BRISTOL AYD EXETER RAILWAY OPENING.—In ano ther part of our paper will be found a full account of the in teresting proceedings at the excursion made by the directors and shareholders along the Bristol and Exeter railway, pre paratory to the general opening. The greatest satisfaction was expressed by all parties, and although no day has yet been fixed for the commencement of the public traffic, yet it is evident that the state of the road is such as to allow us to anticipate an early date,—we are informed within a week. When the company assembled they were unanimous in ex pressing the obligations of the shareholders and the public to the chairman, directors, engineer, and secretary, for their exertions in carrying out this magnificent undertaking, which will be equally productive of benefit to the district through which it passes, and the parties who have invested their ca pital for its formation. The west of England has now seen the beginning of the railway system. and it is our most an xious wish that it may derive as much advantage from it as has already accrued to the northern districts ; we hope to see it extending through the fertile agricultural county of Devon to the mining riches.of Cornwall, and to see the Bristol and Exeter the parent of as many divergent branches asthe Great Western itself. The merits of the Bristol and Exeter rail way we have sometimes had occasion to impress upon our readers : for the future we confidently believe that they will speak for themselves, in the most gratifying of all language, good dividends, and that the lease will be found as beneficial to the lessors as to the lessees. There is a large amount of population and wealth in the country through which the rail way passes, and a wide field for the extension of feeders and the supply of traffic. The thirty-four miles now ready will soon tell their tale, and in the meanwhile the company are making every effort to carry out their line to its full extent. The shares will not be long before they feel the effect. of the present impulse, and both the original holders and recent purchasers will find reason to congratulate themselves on the nature of their investment, for even the present dull state of the market will not be able to depress securities of such intrinsic value. The line from Bristol to Bridgewater, 34 miles, excited the admiration of all present on the occa sion—nearly four hundred persons, who were loud in their praises of the extreme smoothness of the road, and rich and beautiful country through which it passes. In the opinion of railway men it was the best 34 miles they had ever travel led upon. We dismiss the subject of the Bristol and Exeter railway for the moment, with great delight at seeing how fully the directors have been able to redeem their promise to the shareholders, of getting the permanent way laid before the first of June. CHELTENHAM AND GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY OPEN ING.—The Ist of June was the day appointed for the opening of the Cheltenham and Great Western Railway to Cirences ter, and, accordingly, on that day the ancient town was pla ced in direct railway communication with London. To the inhabitants of that district this is matter of congratulation, but still more to the shareholders of the company, who have had great difficulties to contend with, and who must now feel inspired with the hope of at last reaping the fruits of their arduous exertions. We know nothing more harrassing than the anxious interval between the passing of a railway bill and the period of the completion of the line ; • so that we appre ciate the influence which this event is calculated to have in encouraging the shareholders, and restoring the marketable value of their property. We do not, however, look to the result of this opening as a measure of the traffic on the line, because it is not until its completion to Cheltenham that its full value will be seen, as the grand connecting link between the northern and midland counties and the west of England. equally as the high road from the metropolis to the active population around the railway. Seven trains daily run from Paddington, and eight return, while two intermediate stations provide for the local traffic. A good beginning has thus been made, and it must lead to a lo era of prosperity, such as will well repay its staunch su ng pporters. RAILWAY TRAFFIC, &c.—The particulars of traffic upon the various railroads in England and Scotland, twenty-nine in number, for the last week, that is to say, up to the date to which the respective returns are made, show the following parcels, carriages,horses .1 78 a 8 n i d Leeds, results :—,Thefotortpaalssreencegieprtssi were £74,428, of which there were £6O, Railway mails, and 13,466 took km.te.rlci.:,a3r9id6i;se.GreTaht Bir minghamev4LeostnecronnaxnBd6c3Rod.

London and Greenwich, £2,28-1 ; York and North Midland 7;05 ; On Friday, the Queen held a Privy C oun cil at Bucking. ham Palace, when the five pound gold piece was submitted to the Queen and approved of. Although we are unable to note any particular activity in the trade during the past two days, yet the sales of Wheat, including the execution of a few orders for Ireland, and the Northern :Counties, have been ,to a moderate extent ; and with gradually decreasing stocks of free Wheat, owing to the payment of duty being nearly suspended, the prices of Tuesday last have been firmly maintained. Similar remarks are likewise applicable to Flour, the stock of duty-paid Fo reign, as well as English and Irish being now reduced into a very limited compass. The arrivals Coastwise and from Ireland since our first report this week, furnish a very scanty supply of Grain and Flour, with a moderate quantity only of Oatmeal ; the im ports of Foreign produce also comprise merely 5,588 quar ters of Wheat and 540 quarters of Beans, wholly from Europe. _ . Except on Barley, raised to 16s. 10d. per quarter, duties remain the same as last week. Having several millers clown this morning from distant parts of the country, directing their attention principally to good fresh foreign Wheats, sales of those descriptions were effected to a fair amount, and a slight improvement, in some instances 1d per 'Nibs over Tuesday's rates was ob tained. English and Irish Wheats also, of which very few samples were offering to-day, were held on higher terms. Of bonded Wheat, two cargos have changed hands, at prices rather exceeding those last noted, one of which was Odessa, previously under quarantine, and being admitted to entry at 23s 8d duty, was sold to-day at 8s 8d per 701bs. Free Flour continuing in fair demand, was generally ra ther dearer for consumption ; but in parcels under lock no recent sales have transpired. Barley, Malt, Beaus, and Pease ruled much the same as described in our last circular. Oats met some inquiry, but the holders refusing to submit to any further decline. little business was done ; and Oat meal, exciting very little notice, hardly sustained its late value.

Peel) called a fair weather and a fuul weather budget, and he also said that the right hon. baronet laboured under a misapprehension in 'apposing that it was not the intention of the government to dissolve parliament after the division on the sugar duties bill. It was also a mistake to suppose that the recent mea cares proposed by the government were founded upon the report of the import duties committee. Neither were they the result of the difficulties in which the government found themselves after the commencement of the session. Those reforms were contemplated long before, nor were they to have stepped there, far in the customs he contemplated various alterations of duty. It was an error to suppose that no mem ber of the government attended the import duties committee, .or it was ' 4 by the paymaster of the forces ; and :` for it was cousta attendect t Was scar( against the governale tion.

Because the repeal of these protective laws would lead to a reduction of the wages both of the mechanic and labourer. 3. Because in the countries whne corn is cheap, such as Russia, Pul nd, and Germany, the scale of DgeS is So ex- 'ver tastes wheaten bread, ry much worse off f clothes and lod, than thosC of the same el re in Er GOO agricultural labourers , of which their parishes, the like number starve and the remaining 1,670,000 be forced to corn- burder or emigrate, pets with the manufacturing population 5.

TAKING THE CENSUS OF THE PEOPLE Rap went the knocker ; opened was the door ; A chap appeared I'd never seen before. " You must," said he, " the names on this sheet write, Of all who slept beneath your roof last night— For I am one of those who've got a station, To take the census of the population ; And as at every dwelling we must call, I hope without delay you'll write down all." Quoth I, " If what you tell me, friend, be true, You overrate the task you have to do ; To take the senses of the people ! truly, You need not call on half to do that duly ' • Pass by each door of liVral, whig, and rtid,— One half are fools, and t'other half stark mad ; From such, who seek by vile pretences, You cannot take, for they have lost—their senses. Omit them ; for, to add to England's glories, You'll find the SINSMS only 'mongst the tories." QUIZ. FORTUNATE ESCAPE.—WINDSOR, TUESDAT. - Mr. Van Amburgh, who has arrived in this town, for the race week, with his splendid collection of trained animals, had a very lucky escape from an attack of the lion at the time he was exhibiting in the den with the lion and tiger yesterday morn ing. These two animals, a short time before the exhibition commenced, had an angry scuffle with each other; but all animosity between them appeared afterwards to have ceased. While Mr. Van Amburgh was lying down by the side of the lion, with his head close to its mouth, the animal's enormous tusk inflicted a wound upon his forehead, just above the eye, from which the blood flowed pretty copiously down his face. - . PROBABLE Loss OF THE SHIP GOLCONDA. — On the 20th of August last, the 37th regiment Madras native infantry sailed for China from Madras, in the ships Golconda, Thetis, Minerva, and Sophia. The Golconda was the head-quarter ship of the regiment. Lieutenant-Colonel William Isacks commanded the troops, and Captain John Bonner• Neeve was second in command. There were twelve other officers in the Golconda, and 355 soldiers, including camp followers. The regiment consisted of 1100 men, all of whom arrived safely in China (except the detachment on board the Golconda), and have lately distinguished themselves in the capture of the Bocca Tigris forts, &c., but no tidings whatever have been received of the fate of the Golconda. A letter from Madras says, there remains not a doubt that she foundered in a typhoon which occurred about the time that she must have been in the China seas. Dreadful as the loss of the President will be, how much more lamentable, in point of numbers, is this frightful calamity. TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF ASTLEY'S THEATRE BY FIRE. —We regret to state, that shortly after four o'clock,on Tues day morning the southern portion of the metropolis was aroused to a state of excitement beyond description, by the outbreak of a fire most awful in its ravages—the total de struction of the above place of amusement. Astley's Theatre is now reduced to a heap of ruins, while the destruction of property amounts to several thousand pounds. It appears from the best sources of information, that the fire originated in the stables, which joined the north end of the theatre facing Stangate-street, and which is supposed to have been occasioned by some defect in the gas. There were three watchmen employed in the interior of the theatre, besides a fireman; the duties of these men, it is said, were to attend to the interior of the theatre. It seems they were first alarmed as to the existence of the fire by it breaking in a vast mass into the body of the theatre. Although engines that were connected with the theatre were brought into play, such hold had the fire obtained, that it defied the utmost efforts of human power to stop it. They instantly rushed out of the place and alarmed the inhabitants. As may be imagined, indescribable confusion took place. Messengers were sent in all directions for the fire engines, which arrived in quick succession; however, by the time they got to work the entire building presented one body of fire. At six o'clock the destruction was completed, only the bare walls being left. We could have wished that it had been in our power to say that every individual escaped, but unfortunately such was not the case. Shortly after the fire had in some degree been subdued, one of the female servants was missing. She was, however, seen to jump out of one of the back windows over the stables, and it was supposed that she had been taken into one of the neighbour's houses, but as no tidings could be obtained, a painful anxiety was manifested, and all doubts of the poor creature's fate were removed by the discovery of her remains at half-past nine o'clock, which were placed in a shell, and removed from the spot of her death. Out of the great number of horses belonging to Mr. Ducrow, three only have been destroyed, besides a " learned donkey." The number of persons who are reduced by this unfortunate ca lamity to poverty are about 200, 80 of whom were in the re ceipt of a weekly salary. The treasury was saved as far as concerned the receipts of the previous night. The fire is supposed to have originated in the stables from an excess of gas. About two months since the theatre had a vary narrow escape from destruction by a similar accident. Mr. Ducrow is insured, we understand, in the Royal Exchange, Phmnix, and British fire offices. This the third time the theatre has been destroyed by a similar calamity. The first time in the life of Mr. Philip Astley, the second time about thirty-fi ve years ago, when Mrs. Davies, the wife of the partner of Mr. Astley jun. fell a prey to the flames. Several of the houses in the Westminster-road and Amphitheatre-roware damaged at the back. The amount of the property destroyed is seve ral thousands. Great praise is due to the police of the L division for the service they rendered on the occasion. On entering what was the circle, fragments of the scenery and machinery were observable, also a portion of originallythe superb chandelier which occupied the centre of theceiling , presented by his late royal highness the Duke of York to the late P. Astley, valued at that period at five hundred guineas. A number of small houses and tenements in the rear of the theatre were burnt, together with the property they con tained. The estimated loss is considered to he upwards of £20,000. Off the Port, inward bound, one barque and one brig.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 9. The Wheat trade is firm, but there is no difference in value since Monday, and other articles ate unaltered. DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 8 The sales of Wheat and Oats this day were to a very limited ex tent, and, in some instances, holders of both submitted to a re duction of 6d per barrel. Oatmeal stood firm for the last clay's rates, at which very little business was done. Bakers' Flour is without alteration since our last ; inferiors and thirds were dull, except for prime samples. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JUNE 7 Prices of Butter have still a downward tendency ;—the insane acts of our agricultural destroying ministry much conducing to such a result. Fine Carlow &c., we, cannot correctly quote higher than 94s—other kinds 86s to 90. Pickled Butter offered ineffctually at 865 for seconds. Beef and Pork unaltered in price. The Murrain, (unfortunately too prevalent a disease amongst horned cattle,) has caused an increased consumption of Bacon,—we advance our quotations Is to 2s for the best, Belfast meat being worth 56s to 57s per cwt. SHREWSBURY FAIR Iu our fair, on Tuesday the sth instant, the suppply of Sheep was nut great, scarcely equal to the demand, but fat weathers sold readily at sid per lb. out of the wool. The supply of weather Sheep for store was very small, and consequently good prices were obtained. Ewes and Lambs were scarce, and the quality not of the best description ; fat Lambs sold well, averaging 7d per lb. The number of Sheep penned at this fair was very limited, for the time of year. Pigs were selling well. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 7 Although our market to-day was on the whole fairly supplied with beasts as to numbers, the Beef trade, owing to the numerous attendance of dealers, and the favourable state of the weather, was brisk, at an advance in the currencies noted on Monday last of from 2d to 4d per Sibs, and a good clearance was speedily effected. From Scotland we received 300 horned and polled Scots by steamers. With Sheep we were largely supplied, yet the de mand for them was steady, at full last week's prices. Lambs came freely to hand, whilst the sale for them was animated at late rates. The Veal trade was dull. In Pigs little was doing. HULL CORN MARKET, JUNE 8 The duty on Wheat advanced last week to 245 Sd per qr. pre viously to which, duty was paid on about 10,000 qrs., leaving under lock in this port about 6,0e0 qrs. The arrivals during the past week are trifling, and the great bulk we may consider already here ; prices of Wheat in Hamburg assimilate so closely to the prices here, that all inducement to purchase is taken away for the present ; the weather has latterly been very harsh and cold, and the business passing, either in free or bonded Wheat, has been of the most limited nature, so trilling that wedonotalterthequotations, but nothing doing in them. Cakes of both sorts without alteration. Bones wery scarce, and 28 dd to ss per ton dearer. This day's market has been met with a very short supply of farmers' Wheat, so much so that there was barely enough for the millers, and they were obliged to pay Is per qr. advance on last week's rates. Scarcely anything offering in spring corn ; and the prices of Oats, Barley, Beans, &c., unaltered. SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 9 The show of beasts was good in quality, but in number rather limited. Of sheep and lambs the supply was fair. Beef in good demand and id per lb. dearer. Mutton and lamb without change in value, but both met with ready sale. Nearly all sold. Beef, 6d to 7d per lb. Mutton, 6d to 7d. Lamb, 8d to gd. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 8 The improvement in the demand for Cotton, whieh we noticed yesterday, has not been followed up today; the trade having operated more moderately, and exporters only purcha.!ed to the extent of 150 bags Surats. The total sales are 1500 bags, consist ing of 100 Brazils, at 74d to 84d; 30 Egyptians at 9id to led; 300 Surats 34d to bid, and the rest Americans, chiefly from 54d to 74d. Prices remain without the least alteration. COTTON MARKET, Juts 9 We have to report only a moderate extent of business in Cotton to-day, and the sales which are all to the trade, are from 2000 to to 2500 bags, without any change from the current rates of Friday last. The particulars consist of 100 Pernams and Cearas at 8d to Bid, 50 Bahias lid to 8d; SO Maranhams aid to 71d; 30 Egytians ad to 1 od ; 200 Surats gd to scl, and the remainder Americans. COTTON MARKET, Ju 10 The business done by the trade to-day has again been only to a moderate extent, but speculators having purchased 500 bags Americans and SOO Surats, has swelled the total sales up to 3500 bags. , Prices are without material change, ahhougo in some in stances they are rather easier than in the beginning of the week. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, JUNE 8. (From the Circular of Messrs. James Scutt 5- So n .) . The imports of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland:and of Wheat, Flour, and Beans, from foreign ports, have been to a fair extent since Tuesday last, and the demand has continued very moderate for every article in the Corn Trade here, and in our country mar kets, at barely the prices then quoted, and in some instances a re duction of Id to 2d per respective bushel has been submitted to on Baltic Wheat and on Irish Oats. The duty on Wheat, from foreign ports, increased on Friday last Is per quarter ; on Flour, about 7id per barrel; an on Peas, Is fld per quarter ; on other Grain no alteration duty 23s sd had been previously paid here during the week on about 16,400 quarters of Wheat, and on about 2000 barrels of Flour, and on about isoo quarters of Barley; doubtful of seeing any speedy reduction in the duties, or any alteration in the Corn laws before the next harvest be ascertained, the prospects for which, though generally noticed in the public papers as very favourable, and already very variously and dubiously reported, by compitent observers, throughout this district, particularly for Wheat, but it is as yet too early to form any decided opinion on this subject : very few transactions have occurred in bonded Grain or Flour, except two cargoes of Egyptian Beans, reported to have changed hands on the passage at about 21s 6d, and prices thereof continue as quoted below. The stocks now in this port, free for home use, are estimated at about 70,000 quarters of Wheat, and at about 8,000 barrels of Flour, and about 5,000 quarters of Beans, including the foreign recently released ; and about 64,000 quarters of Wheat, about 104,000 barrels of Flonr, and about 11,550 quarters of Beans, in bond; of all other Grain, free or in bond, they are very small. Hay harvest in the south of England is reported to have com menced under very fabourable circumstances. At this day's market there appeared a little more confidence in the trade, and sales were effected to a limited extent of Wheat and Flour at the prices of this day week ; the demand for all other ar ticles was very moderate at barely the prices quoted.
