Yesti AN ABSURD PARLIAMENTARY RETURN The Albion of yesterday gives an epitome of a p stance of a corre ipondence addr ;ed by Lord and dated from the Board of Trade, January 13th, 1831, containing some complaints against Captain Pane, of the tive to alleged ill-treatment of his steerage passengers on a recent passage outward. The complaints have been lodged by a Mr. Vere Foster against the officers for an assault, as well as against the captain for ill-treattnini of the passenz,..yrs. Who this Mr. Vero Post S we till" we know ; but who Lord Hobart is, or what is the alleged relationship to him of Mr. Vere Fut few particulars of the case will, however, 'erhaps suffice a man was committed to prison for two flr . beinz in puss , n of stolen cotton Y'S CEEULLCH, KIRKDALE was that of an Irish labourer. he I Though On Sunday last. ut-..1 of 1 if enclosing the sacred edif Ensign Richard ITarbord, of NITT.ITAILY PROMOTION E, 36th Regiment, has been promoted to bE te reeimcnt is en mute to the West Indies, but Lieu Irbord is stationed with a detachment at the Isle of sailed he She belongs to Messrs.

The worthy gentleman made no complaint to the authorities in New York, where he had all the witnesses within his rcach, and where alone cognizance could be taken of the offence. And Lieut. Hodder, the government emigration agent of this port, from whom a letter is given, and who had in quired into the facts, remarks upon this omission as sin gular, and adds that Mr. Foster was advised not to do so by the British Consul. The real fact is, as we are in. formed from good authority, that he went on b scarcely a change of linen and no provisions He was kept liberally by the captain of the , „, upon a' ample diet, drawn from its stores. In pursuance of ' laudable curiosity, he sounded his fellow-passengers from time to time for a list of their grievances, of which any- hip upon an knows d in the ste of an emigrant ship, and their utter disregard of necessary discipline, will readily conceive he would receive in ample quantity. It. was not, however, until he had, in a letter, which out• informant has seen, endeavoured to raise an ill feeling between the officers of the ship and the captain, that his mischievous antics were iaterfered with. We repeat that we do not know who Mr. Foster is. The Daily News, which notices the'case. says that he is a young gentleman of family and fortune. know who Captain Page, of the Washington, is,—, one of. the most respectable and best-known men in t service between this port and New York. If Mr. Foste. is not our old acquaintance, " the cabin passenger" of the But w London Times. he is a very indiscreet young man Rumours are again rife of an impending resignation of the ministry. Notwithstanding Lord Torrington's defence of himself in the House of Lords, Lord John Russell UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.—On Saturday, the 26th instant, Mr. B. Irving, 8.A., of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, one of the assistant masters of the Royal Institution School in this town, obtained the prizo for the Norrisian Divinity Essay, open to all Bachelors of Arts in the University of Cambridge. AN EXCRUCIATING WORD.—Amongst the attractions provided by Mr. Soyer, at his Universal Symi Gore-house, we find set forth in his advertisement grand staircase, containing the Maceloine of all z being a Comigrotesquep, Vienofu: suchh - a getting up stairs to the! Getting to the end of such a sixteen-syllabled word is no joke, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Soyer's dinners will be rather more digestible. THE LIVER. ESTABLISHMENT.—It will ba seen by a❑ advertisement in our columns that this establishment has now received its supply of spring goods. The Liver is becoming a very favourite mart for many descriptions of It has also the advantage to offer to purchasers clothinz Afars and the corps of assistants are most attentive and civil to their customers. The stock of fancy goods is particularly tasteful and suitable for the season. THE WORKHOUSE CHAPLAINCY.—We find that the Rev. R. W. Wolseley, the painstaking curate of St. John's Church, is a candidate for this vacancy. There is pro bably not a better training ground in Liverpool for a workhouse chaplain than this district, with its large po pulation,—its numerously attended regular and ragged schools,- and its various useful and chiiritable institutions. Mr. Wolseley has specially endeared himself to the poor of the district:, by h ate and conai. derateintcrest in their behalf; and fits services deserve a marked recognition at the hands of the Select Vestry. ALLOWANCE OF REFRESHMENT TO THE JURORS.—In Recorder on the subject of the allowance of some trifling refreshment to jurors attending the borough sessions. It wai represented that this had been the custom heretofore, but that the Finance Committee did not think they had the power to continuo the disbursement out of the borough monies, and the jurors bad since been deprived of it. The Recorder suggested that the jurymen should petition the Town Council, through the Mayor, on the subject ; and, probably, a different view might be taken of the matter. The jury thanked the learned_gentleman_for the suggestion, intimating that they would resort to it they Were then, at half- wtst twelve yesterday, discharged from further attendance at this session. MAT•rttnw's en URC IT SCOTLAND • ROAD.—On 3 Rev. J. F. Witty, an English gentleman, and formerly a clergyman or tu. entered upon the office of colleague or assistant mit to the Rev. Dr. Hilicoat, St. Matthew's Church, land-road, by delivering two very faithful sermons, at the close of which inconsiderable collections were made on behalf of the school held underneath the church, about eight feet below the level of the road stood, that before the death of Mr. respected steward to the Earl of Derby, sonic promise was made of a piece of ground in the rear of the ed;fice for educational purposes. The noble earl may probably carry this out ; and if local efforts were made towards school premises, so as to cope with the deplore, ranee. &c., of the district, the committee of pi. council on education would, doubtless, grant about £750 as a supplement.

We should be truly happy if, as the resu►t of our own observations, we could endorse this We hear, however, from every guar- necess itatemem ter, of a very different state of things existing the manufacturing districts, so little is the supply of labour in excess of the demand for it, that a firm, whose works have been standing for seven months Even in [uence of a strike for wages, have just been able to fill them with new hands ; and an authority, Manchester Guardian, informs us that " this close of the contest leaves up wards of six hundred workpeople without a hope of em ployment; with their funds, anti those derived from the Trades' Unions, exhausted, and their little household furniture, clothing, and comforts rapidly disappearing, in order to provide themselvts and their families with the barest means of subsistence." No such circumstance could occur, with the manufacturing interest in a state of active prosperity. Moreover, it is rather an odd thing that such crowds of people should be running away from a country in which there was all the " full employment," and "abundance of bread, and meat, and drink," de :c ibed by the Times. _ _ PASSENGERS PER THE BALTIC.—From New York : Messrs.

Wilde, who kept the house where he lodged, have been apprehended at Newcastle-upo - i-Tyne, on suspicion of having poisoned a widow, named Anderson, with whom the man cohabited. It was stated by the surgeon at the inquest that death had been caused by essential oil of almonds. The stopper of a bottle strongly impregnated with this poison had been found in an ashpit adjoining the house. The prisoners were, however, on Thursday. set at liberty, as there wag no proof of their haying admi nistered the poiison. rvv M Saes mail steam-ship Baltic. Capt. Coln' stock, arrived in the river, last nitht. with advice 3 from New York to the 16th instant, which port she left at ncon on that day. She was off the bar at two o'clock, but did not reach the river until seven. For the first five days she experienced very heavy easterly winds, amounting to a storm. She attempted to make the north pasage, but, in consequence of the strong head winds, Capt. Comstock deemed it advisable to go to the south of Ireland. The Baltic has brought 204 passengers, a greater number than was ever conveyed by a steamer amoss the Atlantic. She has on board, in specie, 150,000 dollars, and £514 worth of silver bar. The steam-ship Washington arrived at New York on the 10th instant. ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC.

The intelligence taken cat by the Africa, reporting another advance here in the Cotton Market, produced great satisfaction in America. _ The New York and Erie Railroad is nearly completed. No fewer than 10.749 emigrants arrived at New York during the first fortnight of the present month. An invitation had been received by the Mayor of _ New York from the Mayor and citizens of Limerick questing the former, awl the friends by whom he r tie accompanied to the Great Exhibition, to make Limerick, as the nearest point. to America, their port of deharcation, and to partake there of an entertainment.

We are now comparing with a period of very light receipts last year, whereas between let of June and Ist of September, 174,000 bales were received at the.parts against 139.000 bales the preceding season, when the total re ceipts reached 2,728,000 bales. The crop, it Is universally ad. mitted, is more generally off the plantations than at same period last year, and we believe, therefore, that the excess in comparative receipts at the ports is unsafe data by which to esitmate the aggregate yield.

Flour, and an increased confi dence that the supplies of Flour and Wheat front the Erie Canal on the opening will be light; owing to the limited opera tions of the millers through the winter, conseq uent u p on the high rules of Wheat, the holders of both articles are firm at my quotations, which are about I;ir. per brl. higher than at the date of circular of Ist April. As I remarked in that report, I see no'cause to expect any material decline in prices, at least for a month or two to come.
