Mr. ITORSFALL presented a petition from the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, praying that no letters of marque or privateering commissions should be henceforth granted by the government of this country; and that, among other precautions against the abuses of privateering and letters of marque issued by foreign nations, it would be declared that any vessel sailing under letters of marque or privateering commission, issued against the property of this country, unless commanded by a subject of a nation at war with this country, and fitted out in and having proceeded from a port or place of such nation after such a declaration of war, will be deemed a pirate by the law of this country, in accordance with the prin ciple proclaimed by the government of the United States of America during the Mexican war in 1846. That the Chamber considers it of the highest importance that the government of this country should open negotiations with France, the United States, and other countries, with the view of obtaining their concurrence and co-operation in declaring it to be piracy, at all times and under all cir cumstances, for any vessel to bear letters of marque or privateering commissions, against the property of any nation so declaring. SIR JAMES WYLIE, for a long time the chief physician at the Russian Court, has just died at St. Petersburg. He is reported to have bequeathed the entire of his very large fortune to the Emperor of Russia. Sir James Wylie was a Scotchman, born in 1768. FUGITIVE SLAVES.—There are 35,000 fugitive slaves in Canada, who are represented as in a very flourishing con dition just now, owing to the high prices paid for labour on the lines of railway building in the provinces. In the town of Chatham alone there are 730 fugitives, who are rapidly acquiring property in land. In the new abolition town of Buxton there are 130 families of coloured people, escaped slaves, who own a tract of 9000 acres of land. The whole amount of land in Canada West, owned by the fugitives, is stated to be 25,000 acres. CONVERSION OF STOCKS.—There has been printed, by order of the House of Lords, a paper containing returns of the stocks and annuities redeemed, paid off, or commuted under the act of the 16th of Victcra, chap. 63, showing the annual interest before and after commu tation. It appears that the amount of capital stock directed to be redeemed or commuted was £11,133,210 12s. The amount commuted was £3,063,906 18s. Bd. ; the capital stock redeemed was £8,069,303 13s. 4d. ; the amount paid off on sth January last was £6,048,755 4s. 9d., and the amount to be paid off on the sth of April next is £2,020,545 Bs. 7d. The annual interest on the stock before commutation was £91,914 3s. 10d, and after com mutation £84,658 13s. 4d. The amount of Exchequer bills exchanged for Exchequer bonds was £408,000, and the annual amount of interest payable on such bonds is stated at £11,244 165., while the annual interest on the same amount of Exchequer bills at the present rate of 2d. per cent. per diem would be £12,437 7s. 6d., causing a diminution of annual charge of £1,192 12s. 6d. From the sth January, 1852, to the sth of January last, the amount of Exchequer bills paid off in money - was £3,128,000. The amount of Exchequer bills purchased by the National Debt Commissioners from the sth of January, 1853, to the sth of January last, on account of sinking fund, was £1,557,000, and on account of the fund for banks for savings, £1,247.000.

RUSSELL moved for leave to bring in a bill to make further provision for the good government and ex tension of the University of Oxford and of the colleges therein. He deferred, for the present, a consideration of the question, as to the right of parliament to interfere with the Universities, and he assumed, as sufficiently proved by the evidence, that the University of Oxford did not at present fulfil the purposes for which it was established, and that some reform was absolutely needed. The first ground of complaint related to the constitution of the governing body of the University; the heads of houses, being, it was said, elected for other purposes, could not be specially qualified to 'undertake the superin tendence of its studies: The second alteration called for was the extension of the University, many halls and colleges having, in • the course of time, become extinct. There had been much acute discussion as to the compara tive advantages of the college tutorial and the professorial systems ; but it appeared to him that we had an opportu nity, which ought not to be lost, of combining the advantages of both 'systems, and that the students, besides the college tuition, should enjoy the advantage of acquiring a knowledge of modern science and literature and of modern tongues, which would be beneficial, not merely to those who studied for a profession and tivated learning as a path to eminence and emolument. Another matter of complaint was the restriction in respect to various honours and emoluments which were the re wards of learning. In the next place, it appeared that some portion of the revenues of the richer colleges, not now applied to the purposes of learning or teaching,ought to be so applied. Changes, and very important ones, had been made, not only at the Reformation, but, later still, in the endowments set apart for lectures on divinity, the canon law, moral and natural philosophy. What had be come of these endowments ? Dr. Routh, the venerable President of Magdalen College, had said that the altera tions had 'been made pro ratione tenzporis. As the object in view, was to rectify abuses, not to destroy 'endowments, why shordel not other changes be introduced in the same spirit and to the same end, that of aclaptir.g.endowments to the exigencies of time ? Lord John then proceeded to explain the general nature of the bill. With respect to the government of the University, instead of the Hebdo madal Board, consisting of the Vice-Chancellor, the Heads ref Houses, and the Proctors, it was proposed to create a body of 24 or 25 members, to be called the Hebdomadal Council, to be thus composed ; the Vite-Chancellor and 'the two Proctors to be always part ofthe Council, and the 'Vice-Chancellor of the preceding year, 'when not elected a 'member of the Council, to continue :to be a member until the next triennial election. With 'regard to the other members of the Council, it was ;proposed that the body 'called the Congregation should elett six Heads of colleges or halls, and that a seventh Head should be nominated by the Chancellor of the University; that six Professors should be elected by the Congregation, another appointed by the Chancellor, and another , chosen from among the professors of theology, and thdt Six members of Convoca tion, of not less than five yem.e:Standing, should be elected by the Congregation. Of the - persons to be elected out of each of the three chmses--Ileads of Houses, Professors, and members of Convocation—the three juniors would vacate their seats at the expiration of the third year from their election. This was the , constitution of the proposed governing body of the University. It was proposed to abrogate the oaths binding persons not to disclose any matter relating to their rcollege or to any inquiry appointed by law, and 'to certain other matters. Another object of the tillywas to give a power of open ing private halls, by license from the Vice-Chancellor. The power of applying part of the revenues of colleges to increasing the funds for the promotion of education, it was intended to be thus conferred and exercised. It was proposed to appoint a 'commission with power to approve of statutes framed by the-colleges until Michaelmas Term, 1855, after which the commissioners would have authority to enact statutes, which, - When approved by the Queen , in Council, would have tle force of law, and the colleges would be autherised to 'contribute for University Trar poses to the extent of one-fifth of their revenues. There remained one iquestion - respecting which no provision . was contained in gm 'bill,.:andwhieh it was thought shouTC, be reserved for separate consideration and a distinct measure —namely, the ,adniission of dissenters to the Univer4ties. Upon that luestion he . : held the same opinion which he had heretofore 'expressed. After a discussion; in•Whitit several members toaluatart, leave was given to bring iwthe bill. NsuTn.&.l. CIA:REFOES.—On the order for going into committee of ways and means, Mr. M. Ginsox moved an address, praying Her Majesty to give special instructions to the officers.oommanding Her Majesty's cruisers;. in the event of war, to abstain; from interfering with neutral vessels on account of any goods or property not-contra band of war,tontained therein ; and to direct her ministers to consider th.eTblicy of entering into treaty stipiiktions with foreign -countries- on the principle that free-ships shall make freegoods and the neutral flag give neutrality to the cargo.—Mr. 11011SFILL, in seconding the motion, called the attention of the government also to the,kindred subject of privatecring and fitters of marque.—Lord J. RUSSELL said it was the intention of the government to advise Her Majesty, before* hostilities took place,-and he hoped shortly to issue a dccument, declaring them policy in this matter.-IThe motion was withdrawn. THE INCOMEiTAX. - The house went into committee of ways and means, •for the consideration of the nes - caution already moved the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to the effect, that -there shall' be • raised for the year•:oom mencino•' on the atli. of April, 1€54, for and in respect of property, &e., 'Chargeable for the year, with the:duties granted by the act 18th and I'7th of Victoria, chap. 34, additional duties, -Amounting- toAone moiety of the dailies charged by the -act for the year, and that the-aft-hole amount of the additional duties shall be collected.and paid with, and over the above, the first moiety Of the duties charged - by the act for the year.—After a -4. - -ort debate, the chairman was ordered to report progressiand the house adjourned at half-past twelve o'clock. TRIBUNALS OF COMMERCE. A MEETING of the• supporters of the Association for the Establishment , of Tribunals of Coumserce was .held. Wednesday, at the 'London Tavern; Lord Beaumont, president of the society, in. the chair. The chairman said :that for a long tune past the want of some means by , velii6 commercial disputes :might be speedily .and justly decided was felt this , country. Though great improvements had of late years - been effected in the law of the land, and though theseimprovements had worked exceedingly ',well, still the wart ,of some in stitution for the more e?peedy and cheap decision of dis pntes-betweeu merchants -remained to be supplied. In • most other countries this Avant had been supplied. It was felt that commercial dispu 4 4es could be better decided by persons who were Deg:nail - it-Ed with commercial subjects than they could be by lawyers. In this country, where :.very large transactions of a,eommercial nature took Place, - Tribunals of Commerce Might not be the best for deciding on such large transactions, bnt for the number.of small mercantile disputes which rand be occurring from day to day in this country, and where a delay of justiee was almost as had as a refusal of justice, they afforded the best remedy. It was, to meet such cases that Tribunals of Commerce were considered to be,extremely desirable. At tho present time, the Court of Chancery and other courts were-cibliged to refer such matters to be decided on by persons who were acquainted with. them, and it seemed to him that it would be much snore desirable that such cases slusild be begun, instead of ending, by a reference to those parties who best understood th nature of the transactions, and whose decision should be final. MerT eantile men would have more confidence in the opinion of ' . mercantile men than in. that of the greatest lawyers, who were totally unacquainted with Trade and Commerce. But it seemed to him that, if. they really wished to carry out their object, they - must put some elearend intelligible plan before Oe_ public, as the real remedy for the grievances which existed. If such a plan was drawn up, having the support of the commercial classes, the public would also support it ; and in the present reforming mood of the legislature, it would, aided by such support, soon receive the sanction of both houses of the legislature. Mr. Lyne, the chairman of the executive committee, then read a lengthy report. - It stated that the association had to contend against the interested hostility of some of the larger merchants of the City kif London and the lawyers, but notwithstanding that hostility it received the support of the traders and merchants generally, especially of the foreign merchants, who were best acquainted with the benefits to be derived from the establishment of Tribunals of Commerce. The society had also encountered the hostility of the Law Amendment Society ; but they hoped , by the support - of the general public, _finallyto establish the principles for which they contended.—The adoption of the report was carried unanimously. • Mr. Lyne moved a resolution, to the effect that the present system of administering Justice in commercial matters was too artificial and dilatory, and that the estab lishment of Tribunals of Commerce would afford - a cheap, speedy, easy, and intelligible mode of settling such dis putes.—The motion was carried unanimously. Mr. Montague Gore moved the next resolution, to the effect that the executive committee be requested to continue their valuable labours, and to communicate with the different Chambers of Commerce in the country as to the best mode of carrying the objects of the society into effect. —The motion was carried unanimously. The chairman said, with regard to the Law Amendment Society, of which he was a member, he knew that that society was .desirous of having some court for the more speedy and effectual settlement of commercial disputes, although it might not exactly concur in the precise views of this society.—After a vote of thanks to the chairman the meeting separated.

MANCHESTER.—The market has continued to main tain an exceedingly dull and inanimate position all week, even more so than was the case last week. Prices are unsteady, but still there is no decidedly downward move ment; most descriptions of goods and yarns may, however, be obtained on somewhat easier terms. As regards yarn, the inquiry for India has been more limited. The German and Continental houses have been very quiet, whilst the purchases of yarn for home manufacture have been merely to such an extent as to supply immediate requirements.l The steadiness of the Liverpool cotton market has assisted to maintain, in some degree, the value of yarns. Goods are exceedingly dull, and prices lower. HUDDERSFIELD.—Business is generally considered quieter than usual at this season, but that is accounted for by the unsettled state of our relations with Russia, and the high price of provisions at home. LEEDS.—The cloth halls have been dull, and in heavy goods the stocks are much on the increase and difficult to effect sales; prices are without material alteration, and the mills continue tolerably well employed. Business has also been dull in the warehouses in the home trade, but there continues to be a considerable amount of business doing for the Canadian markets, and some little improve ment for India and China- BRADFORD.—WooI : There is no improvement in the demand for combing wools, as the spinners are more than ordinary cautious, their avocation being so thoroughly profitless. Full-bred and deep-grown wools, as well as the finer sorts, are very dull sale, at prices in favour of the buyer. Noils and brakes are scarce, and large quantities of second-rate combing are now used in sub stitution for clotbigs, purposes.—Yarns : The unsettled position of the poll MlWorld has comparatively suspended the operations of the' shippers, and the supply on spools for home consumption is not by any means augmented, although the period is drawing near when snore activity may be looked for.—Pieces : There have been some sales of goods suitable for the United States, and it is not im probable, ere long, that we may see some considerable improvement, as goods are offering on terms to induce extended operations. NOTTINGHAM.—The visits of buyers for hosiery and lace are less frequent, and their purchases smaller, than they are wont to be at this season. There is not the ' accustomed quantity of business doing with Germany, and the home trade is still depressed. The price of lace yarn is a little lower, and the turn is again a trifle in favour of consumms of hosiery yarn. LEICESTER.---At present " a good trade " is more the "coming event " than the actual state of business in This town. The change since last report is so trifling as to be scarcely noticeable. CORN. LIVERPOOL, MARCH 14.—The market this morning was thinly attended, and no symptoms of a continuance of operations being apparent, the trade again relapsed into inactivity. Both wheat and flour were much neglected by country dealers, and the speculative disposition to invest iin the latter article having subsided for the time, we had consequently more pressure of stock, and all brands nearly lost the improvement realized in the interval from Tuesday last, whilst wheats may be generally quoted 2d to 3d per bushel under the rates of that day. Barley nominally 'unchanged. Beans is per , quarter lower, with only a .a retail inquiry. Fine oats scarce, and maintain our late 'currency. In oatmeal little doing. XmtEan corn difficult of sale, and offered 6d to 1s per quarter cheaper. BRITISH. VORE.IGN. Wheat, 3 70th., a. d. s. d.l Wheat, v. 701 1 ., a. d. s. d.

Wheat:was .effered at a decline of Cd per bushel, and flour 2s per sack and barrel respectively ; but at these reduced ratesitss aniiety than of late was shown to effect sales. Oatmeal receded in value is per lead, and beans and peas eaclr.2s . per quarter. In other articles there was very little alteration. PRESTON, Miucit 18.7—We have again to note a small supply of English wheat at our Corn Exchange, but the dealers being indisposed :to purchase, a clearance could not be effected without submitting ta an abatement of 2s per windle. Irish, Scotch, arid foreh,ntneglected, the two farmer offered at 6d per bushel, and the.latter at 6d to 10d below last currency. English:flour about.2s per pack, and American full 2s per barrel cheaper. Oats offered in effectually at a reduction of ld per bushel. Oatmeal neiit2y unsaleable at reduced -quotations :of is to 2s per load. All other articles sell -Slowly at lower rates. 'WAKEFIELD, MARCH '7.—The .argvals of wheat during the week amount to 72,000 , quarters. At our market to-day millers operated. on the most limited scale, and -veryy, little business was done in wheatat 3s to 4s per quarter reduction from last Friday. .Barley was is to 2s per quarter; oats, ld per stone; shelling, 2s per load; and' eans is per quarter lower. Other articles as before. 211.4.ncir 18.—We .have had quite a nominal kind of .market here to=day, the quantity of samples offering ayes small, and farmers not being -willing to suinnitiaa reduction great enough to induce merchants to buy, there was scarcely any business done. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, 11.kucii as. At our 'market this morning we had again A small supplynf wheat from the ..country, which sold for fully 3s per quarter less money thee_ on Saturday last. In south country and foreign a sitar reduction may be -noted, but few sales were effected. A fair supply of barley, which must be quoted" is per, qr. cheaper. Oats in good: supply and fully as dear. Floor a heavy sale at a reduction of 2s per sack. CORK, MAX,CII 18.—Our market., participating lu the general depression, is very bare of business. Some holders offer at much below late prices, and so :obtain a moderate sale for consumption. Foreign wheat declined 3s per barrel, flour 2s Gil per sack, and Indian corn ]Os to 15& per ton. DUBLIN . Moincif 17.—We have again to note an extremely depressed market at our Corn Ezebange to-day.

For pork there is more inquiry, old American ia :particular having at tracted attention, and the sales for the week of all descrip tions reach about 1,400 barrels. Bacon is only a slow sale; the dealers, anticipating reduced prices as the arrivals now on the' way come forward, buy sparingly. Lard is quiet, with prices rather in favour of buyers : the sales for the week are on a very limited scale.. For cheese there is a moderate demand, and the stock becomes much reduced. 31Aucn 20.—There was j fair amount of business transacted during the early part of last week, and the market was completely cleared of all the finest qualities, at 102 s to 105 s ; good second-rate descriptions froin 96s to 100 s, were also in good request : but stale and inferior kinds, although offering at tempting prices, were diffi cult to sell; very little was done at the close of the week.

B. There has been a fair amount of business done by the dealers, who have sold an average quantity of logs to the consumers. Retail prices range from 26d to 28d per foot for Quebec pine; but at this rate only regular customers are supplied, the difficulty of replacing stocks, owing to high prices at the shipping ports, from the advance of provisions and labour, and the increasing rates of freight, rendering parties careless about making large sales. There have been no sales of Baltic in the cargo, holders confidently waiting the result of a cessation of shipments consequent on a• state of war. One lot of pitch pine has arrived from Savannah, which, as it will be affected by the above cause, has been withdrawn from the market, and is being yarded. A few cargoes of deals have come forward from SL John, N. 8., all of which are being yarded, present rates being much below the cost of import. The business of the week has been confined to retail from the yards, and mostly to parties at a distance, who have hitherto imported their own stocks ; but these being exhausted, they fmd they can be supplied on better terms from this port. ----- • .

ROWLAND, whose in valuable KA LY DOR, in particular —a cream-like balmy prepa ration—affords the most mild and safe, yet efficacious pre servation, ever afforded for. perpetuating the beauty of the skin, and the charms of youth and loveliness. FRAMPTOff'S PILL OF.HEILTH.—" For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of Winchmore Hill, Middlesex), I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent ' medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better stateof health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg. further to' dd, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it." In any case when an • aperient medicine is required, they need only be tried to be universally adopted. Sold by all medicine vendors. Price Is. lid. per box.

BEAUTIFUL TEETH AND Grass.—The great ob j ect to he attended to in the preservation of the teeth is cleanliness, food should never be allowed to . stick between the teeth a n d decay in the mouth, the teeth should be brushed night and morning and a little tooth powder used,—BRAND O's TOOTH PowDER is strongly recommended to all who require beauti ful teeth and gums. The stomach should also be kept in order, no more frec,uent cause of toothache exists than de rangement of the stomach. Lastly, whenever a tooth begina to decay, stop it immediately with Bemines ENAMEL. If this be done in time, before -the hole becomes larger, or be fore pain has been felt, the further decay of the tooth may be prevented, and that most distressing malady the toothache avoided.
