" Lismore is, therefore, classed high in the list of Ireland's natural beauties; and for many centuries it has occupied a proncinent station in its history. The castle is said to have been originally built by King John ; but the place was " famous" long before his reign. It is kept in repair at the cost of the Duke of Devonshire, who occasionally pays it visits—too few and far between. It is a fine building, with a noble court-yard ; and although the greater portion of it is comparatively modern, the ancient parts are sufficiently apparent to associate with it the memories of by -gone strength and splendour. It has, nevertheless, a lonely look ; our knock at the entrance door had a hollow sound ; we were conducted through the apartments by the housekeeper, a courteous and obliging matron ; but we did not encounter another person; the scene was a solitude we would gladly see broken ; its aspect was the more chilling because every chamber was furnished as if for an unexpected guest. It presented a singular and striking contrast to the noise, bustle, and excitement usually to be foun,l in the vicinity of an Irish mansion ; even the old eagle, so many years a denizen of the castle yard, looked as wild as if he had been at liberty ; here there were no loiterers neglecting profitable labour for the chance of guiding some visitor " up the avenue," or dogboys lingering around the gates because " may be the master would be for sport." AN IRISH WAITER " Another waiter, who amused us much, was an active, lissom, little man, who endeavoured to persuade us that everything in the house was the best that could be obtained in " all Ireland." The inn was a wayside one in Kerry, where we were detained two days by illness and bad weather. " Well, is there any chance of the weather changing ?" " I'm sorry it's not pleasing to you, ma'am, but we've the best weather in all Ireland." " These eggs are done too much."—" The finest eggs in all Ireland, ma'm ; but I'll make an alteration in them." " Is your mutton good ?"—" The best in all Ireland." " And your cook ?"—" The best in all Ireland." The mutton, however, was so very underdone, that we pointed it out to our good-natured waiter. " Yes, sir—l see, ma'am ; the mutton in these parts, as I tould yer honours, is the best in all Ireland ; and so juicy, that its the natur of it — that's it—it's the juciness of the mutton makes it so. I give ye my honour it's that—ye understand—the quality of the meat, nothing else—the goodness of it ; but maybe ye'd like the cook to take some of that out of it—l see—she'll do so in five minutes—the finest cook in all Ireland ;" and he bore of the mutton as triumphantly as if we had chimed in with his praise. It returned to us after the cutlet fashion. He exclaimed, while laying the dish on the table, with the inva riable flourish, " I tould yer honours"—" the finest cook in all Ireland—two ways, ay tin ways, with the same thing—it goes down one thing, and comes up another. Ay, faith, the lady would never forget it if she saw her toss a pancake ; she'll send it up the chimney out of sight, and down it'll come finished—all but the aiting." The number concludes with the introductory portion of the description of Limerick, chiefly historical, and of much in terest. We shall look with anxiety for the concluding sketches of that celebrated country and city. The work, we rejoice to say, is commanding an extensive sale Eupertal Varitaturin. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAY. THE LATE DEBATE. Mr. FIELDEN entered into a statement, but in so low a tone of voice that the particulars could :not be heard ; we, however, understood the hon. member to say that, at two o'clock on Wednesday morning, he (Mr. Fielden) moved that the then debate on the sugar duties should be adjourned, which motion was regularly seconded, but it was not put from the chair. He therefore wished to know why his mo tion for adjournment was rejected—why it was not put from the chair? The SPEAKER said he certainly was of opinion that the motion of the hon. member for Oldham was not seconded, and therefore he did not put it from the chair. He paused for two or three moments, and he did not see any one rise to second the motion ; if he had, it would have been his duty to put it from the chair. (Hear.) Mr. WAKLEY said he rose to second the motion, but could easily imagine, from the noise which prevailed in the house at the time, that the right hon. gentleman did not hear him. (Hear, hear.) The SPEAKER repeated that he heard no seconder, and that was the impression of honourable members who were near him. Mr. FIELDEN.—In consequence of the debate being over on Wednesday morning, I had not an opportunity of speak ing ; but I have written my intended speech in full, and sent it to the newspapers. (Loud laughter.) Hon. members might laugh, but he thought a great deal of the time of that house would be spared if members would write what they are to say before speaking. (Laughter.) He had sent his speech to the papers, in order that hon. members and the country might know his sentiments on the subject. (Laughter.) THE SUGAR DUTIES. The CHANCELLOR of the ExeIIEQUER rose amidst the most profound silence. The right hon. gentleman said,—l rise, sir, to give notice that on Monday next I shall move that the house resolve itself into a committee of ways and means, and in that committee I shall move the usual annual resolution for the renewal of the sugar duties. (Hear, hear, hear, from both sides of the house, and great laughter.) ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE. Lord J. RUSSELL moved that the house at its rising do adjourn until Monday next. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and cheering from the Treasury benches.) —Agreed to. THE CORN-LAWS. The Earl of DARLINGTON then rose and said, the noble lord had not made any statement to the house in consequence of his extraordinary defeat the other night. (Hear.) After that remarkable division against him the noble lord and his colleagues still continued in office with a temerity unparal leled in the history of the country. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and " Order.") The noble earl continued : I rose for the purpose of asking the noble lord opposite on what day he intended to bring forward the.; question of the corn laws. (Hear, hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL.—On Friday, the 4th of June. (Loud cries of Hear, hear.) The house, which had been crowded to excess up to this time, was in a few minutes nearly deserted. A general ex pectation prevailed that there would have been a ministerial statement as to the future intentions of the Cabinet, but not a word more than is above reported occurred. ROYAL MARINES. Lord G. LENNOX moved for a committee of the whole house, to take into consideration so much of the report of the naval and military commission as relates to the recommen dations relative to the royal marines. Sir H. VIVIAN opposed the motion, which, after some dis cussion, was withdrawn. Mr. MACLEAN moved for some returns, calculated to show the operation of the Anatomy Act. Mr. Fox MAULE objected to some of the returns, and said that to the others he had no objection. He would, probably, on a future evening, move for a committee on the subject. Mr. WAKLEY said that the act was working in a most sa tisfactory manner, and without the recurrence of those scenes of violation of the grave, which were formerly as nu merous as disgusting. The returns, to which no objection was made, were then ordered. The orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned until Monday next.

Standard-office, Three o' Clock -- LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—This DAY (From Messrs. R. MAKIN L SONS' Circular.) The arrivals up to last Friday's market were trivial, and of any kind of produce, either coastwise or from Ireland, we have little fresh it for to-day. From the continental ports of Europe, however, we have to note a fair supply of Wheat and Beans, with 590 barrels of Flour thence, and 6,156 bar rels from the American States. In addition to these, seve ral cargoes of Wheat are up this n:o►ning from the Baltic, but too late to include the particulars in our import note below. With frequent showers during the present month, the ge neral character of the weather, although rather cool at in tervals, has been favourable to vegetation, and with fine copious rains for nearly forty hours towards the close of last week, succeeded by a warm, genial temperature, all the crops upon the grounds in this district are now progressing vigour ously, with every indication of an early harvest. Notwithstanding the preceding considerations and the pause in the Wheat trade yesterday i❑ London, our Corn Exchange this morning was tolerably well attended by town and country millers, and a moderately fair extent of business having been transacted, most descriptions of Wheat rather exceeded the improved rates of Friday, thereby establishing an advance of 2d. per Nibs. over the currency of this day se'nnight. Of Wheat, underlock, several parcels have also changed hands at ss. to 6s. per Nibs. Good English, Irish, and Foreign free Flour continued to meet some inquiry on the terms above stated ; and of bonded samples further sales have been made, increasing the quan tity disposed of since this day week to 4500 barrels, at 20s. to Grinding Barley, upon •r moderate demand, ruled full as high as before, and P cargo of prime foreign, duty paid, was held at ss. 2d. per 601bs. • Malt and Pease continue in very slow:request, at late prices ; and Beans, attended with an extremely dull sale were rather cheaper. Oats and Oatmealihaving been taken off very sparingly hardly maintained our last quotations. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, 3 P.M There has been a very limited demand for Cotton to-day, accompanied with a great degree of dulness ; and the sales, which consisted almost entirely of American descriptions, barely reach 1000 bags. Prices remain without any material change SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE TUESDAY, MAY 25.—Wind E.E AsaivEn.—Messanger, Taylor, from New Orleans—Dorette, Dade, and Argo, Fredworth, from Rostock—Speculation, Vagt, from Wismar—Auguste Matilda, , from Stralsund—Rodolph Theodore, , from Groningen—Dorothea, Hoppe, from Danzic ---Elizabeth, —, from Anclam—Elise, , from Danzic— Nelson Village, --, from Savannah—Sarah, , from Sa vannah—Prince, Williams, from Dublin —Amethyst, Campbell, from Glasgow. SAILED.—Mary Ann Webb, M`Dowall, for China Mary, Walker, for Malta, has put back, leaky, having been on shore near Andwch Duex Lceurs, Vandersteene ; and Jenne Clemence, Smit, hence at Antwerp Alida, Briegts ; Zeldenrust, Koning, hence at Texcl Ora, Ockelman, hence at Hamburgh Eliza Cornish, Lauchlan, hence at Leghorn Jessie Logan, Major, from Calcutta at St. Helena New Jane, Penny, sailed from Malaga for this port 4th May George the Fourth, Cornelius, hence at Cadiz Tartar, Nicken, sailed from ditto for this port 7th May MISCELLANEOUS WORSE AND WORSE.—It is said that the new census will cost the country about £300,000. At a late breaking up of a Dudley teetotal party, they are described as retiring from the temperance festival full of spirits! A woman of the name of Laycock came to her death at Keighley on Sunday week, through taking a large quantity of arsenic, which had been given her, by her daughter, in stead of carbonate of soda. She only survived the draught a few hours. Sir Robert Peel was honoured by her Majesty with an in vitation to be present at the grand concert, at Buckingham Palace, on Monday night. BIRTH ON A RAILWAY.-011 Thursday last, as the six o'clock down train to Hull was on its way between Castle ford and Selby, a poor woman, a third class passenger, was safely delivered of a child. She was left at Selby, where, we understand, herself and child are doing well. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has stated to Mr. Bell, M.P. for Northumberland, that he intends to give up the present passenger tax on railways, and to substitute a tax on the gross annual receipts on passengers, at the rate of five per cent. • ALARMING DECLINE IN WOOLLEN EXPORTS.—The quantity of cloths exported last year was 215,746 pieces ; now the export the year previous was 392,8.54 pieces ; showing a falling off of 177,101 pieces, or 45 per cent. l This is a striking proof of the extreme depression under which the Yorkshire trade has been and is still labouring.—Leeds Mer cury. The North Midland and other connected railways are mak ing arrangements, by which they will be able to convey pas sengers from London to Edinburgh in about two hours less time than thex can go by the western routes. They will also be able, by the starting of a coach from Newcastle, at half past five in the morning, to take passengers from that town to London in a single day. BRISTOL TEA• SALE, Thursday, May 20.—At this day's tea sale 1,504 chests of tea were offered, consisting of 74 half-chests of congou, 913 chests of ditto, 40 chests of sou chong, 11 chests of flowery pekoe, 54 chests of twankay, 122 chests of ditto, 15 half-chests of hyson, 132 chests of ditto, 51 half-chests of imperial, 54 chests of ditto, and 8 half chests of gunpowder. The sale was well attended, and al though the biddings were not very animated, yet the greater portion was sold, and at higher prices than were anticipated by the trade—viz., congou, Is 8d to 3s sd; flowery pekoe. 3s 7d to 3s 9d ; twankay, is 8d ; hyson, 2s ld to 2s 4d ; imperial, 2s 10d to 2s lld ; and gunpowder, 3s 2d. INNOVATIONS OF DISSENTERS.—The period at length ar rived when, in 1829, the dissenters gave the right hand of fel lowship to the Irish Papists. The committees of the three denominations, and the Society for the Protection of Religi ous Liberty, petitioned for what was falsely denominated " Catholic emancipation"—and Baptists, Socinians, Inde pendents, Arians, and infidels, signed the same rolls of parch ment, calling upon parliament to destroy for ever the Protes tant constitution of these realms. This fatal measure was passed. This panacea for all the woes of " old Ireland" re ceived the royal assent ; the victor on a thousand battle fields was vanquished by petitions ; and Sir Robert Peel, who had once fought for the cause of that church to which he had devoted his best and earliest years, lent the weight of his name and example to a measure which was " to be at once healing and final." But both the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel have been deceived and disappointed. The dissenters are more clamorous and the Papists less satisfied in 1841 than in 1829, and still the cry against the Protestant church is loud and reiterated—" Raze it! raze it! even to the foundations." A COURAGEOUS WOMAN.—Schweighause Forest, near Rotisbon, has, for a considerable time past, been infested by a band of robbers, headed by a daring fellow, named Leopold Hansel, a native of Steinsberg, and notwithstanding the most active researches on the part of the Bavarian authorities, he and his followers always escape. The reason is, that many of the inhabitants of the surrounding country, from fear or participation, favour him, and render every pursuit of the police abortive. On Sunday, the 2 d instant, during the time of divine service, two of his followers came to the solitary farm of Stegweis, in the district of the Regenstauf. All the family were absent, except the farmer's daughter. The rob bers knocked at the door and demanded victuals and leave to rest themselves within. Their suspicious appearance and behaviour made her cautious, and instead of opening the door she handed out a good large luncheon through the win dow. This did not satisfy her visitors ; they called for more, and insisted on being admitted. As the woman firmly re fused to open the door, they threatened to break in and to put her instantly to death. The brave girl was not dismayed, but taking an old musket which was at band, she pointed it at one of the robbers, who had already smashed the window. The gun, however, was not loaded, and the robber did not move from the window ; then, gathering up her strength, she made a run at his head in the manner of a bayonet charge. The muzzle of the musket struck him with great force on the temple, and he fell bleeding and apparently lifeless to the ground. The other ruffian did not think it advisable to continue the contest with such an Amazon, and carried off his wounded companion to the wood.—Ratisbon Journal. FEMALE BEAUTY PREVALENT IN AMERICA. — The wo men, moreover, are much handsomer than the men. They are almost uniformly good-looking : the greater number are what would be called in England " pretty women," which is something between good-looking and handsome, in the nice distinctions of beauty. This uniformity extends also to their figures, which are almost universally slender, and of good symmetry. Very few large or stout women are seen, and none that we should call masculine. A more than usual de gree of feminine delicacy, enhanced by the general paleness of complexion and slightness of figure, is particularly cha racteristic of American females ; and the extreme respect and deference shown to them everywhere by men, has a ten dency to increase that delicacy, by making them more de pendent on the attention and assistance of others, than English ladies of the same class usually are.—Buckingham's America. SINGULAR HABIT OF A DOG.-It had been observed hadtbhe a lo t n a bg iedenongg very t bl o e h o ernreg,gi regular r t d o o f Mr that late, t s eh . ,e Sharp,inwohuiwould attendance butcher, steal t o e al upon ap Ww wo naa away af from Warwick, home to visit his horned friend while she was w, daily grazing on the Race Common. This exciting curiosity, the gentleman of B ar ks was watched in his visits to his favourite, and it was discovered, about ten days ago, that he was in th e h a bit o f su cking milk from the cow with all the ease and relish of an infant calf, to which her cowship yields with the affe c ti on o f a mother nourishing her own offspring! Whil e th e nurse i s standing, he raises himself on his hind-legs t o suc k, b u t w h en she is lying down he " takes it easy." She fondles and licks him as if he were but a little one of her own produce ; and if another cow ventures even to look frowningly at her adopted, she " looks daggers" in return, and threaten s fi g hti ng i n hi s defence. The cow is of the Alderney breed, and the dog is spaniel. The steam-boats of America differ very much from those of England, both in external . appearance, and in internal ar rangement. Instead of having, as with us, the engines be low, and the cabins for passengers beneath the main deck, it is the custom here to devote the lower part of the vessel to the stowage of the cargo ; and on the main deck are placed th e engines, one on each side, with a large chimney rising from each, so that the operations of the machinery are visible above the deck.

SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Ten o'clock HOUSE OF COMMONS-LAST NIGHT At five o'clock, the house was exceedingly crowded with members on both sides. Several peers occupied the end seats ; End a general expectation prevailed that some impor tant announcement was about to be made to the house. Sir Robert Peel was early in his place. Lord J. Russell, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and one or two other members of the cabinet, entered the house a few minutes before five o'clock. WANT OF CONFIDENCE IN HER MAJESTY'S MINISTERS. Shortly after five o'clock the SPEAKER called upon Sir Robert Peel. Sir R. PEEL rose amidst tremendous cheering, which having subsided, the most profound silence reigned through out the house. The right hon. baronet said,—l rise, sir, to give notice that, on Thursday next, I shall submit the fol lowing resolution to the house That her Majesty's mi nisters do not sufficiently possess the confidence of the House of Commons to enable them to carry through the house measures which they deem of essential importance to the public welfare ; and that their continuance in office under such circumstances is at variance with the spirit of the con stitution." (The right hon. baronet sat down amidst the most tremendous cheers we ever heard, and which were several times renewed.) THE POOR-LAWS In answer to Mr. Walter, Lord J. RUSSELL said he did not intend to proceed with the Poor Law Bill during the present session. (Loud cries of Hear, hear.) BUENOS AYRES Lord SANDON asked several questions of Lord Palmerston relating to the state of Buenos Ayres, but the noise in the house was so great that they could not be distinctly under stood. BRIBERY ACT Sir R. PEEL inquired if the noble lord intended to proceed with the Bribery Act this session. (Hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL said he did not intend to do so 'during the present sessionl(hear), but when he did proceed with that measure, he hoped to have the support of the right hon. baronet the member for Tamworth. (Hear.) Sir R. PEEL.—NV hy, I have already, on previous occasions, promised to support the noble lord in any attempt to put down bribery. (Hear, hear.) THE SUGAR DUTIES On the motion of the CIIANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER the house went into a committee of ways and means, for the purpose of passing a resolution for a renewal of the sugar duties. Sir ROBERT PEEL said, he could have no objection to a resolution for renewing the present duties. If necessary he would second such a resolution. (Loud cheers.) He and the party with whom he acted had no wish to obstruct the public service (tremendous cheering) ; and they could not offer opposition in conformity with their own opinions. (Cheers.) He had no wish to alter the terms of the resolu tion, or limit the period of its operation. (Hear.) A very animated discussion relatingito the duty on sugar ensued between Sir Robert Peel, Mr. Hume, and Sir De Lacy Evans, but from the lateness of the hour at which it occurred we are not able to give a report until to-morrow. Lord J. RUSSELL entered into some explanations of the effect of the duty on sugar as a matter of finance, which was answered by Lord STANLEY observing that it was a most singular fact that during eight inights' debate the noble lord had never made such a declaration and statement before. (Hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL.—I had not an opportunity of making two speeches during the debate. (Hear. —Several members— " Yes, you made two ; you had in reply.") Mr. WAIELEY said he was fearful a most serious conflict was about to take place, and that the country would be agi tated from one end to the other. (Hear.) The reason why the present ministers had lost the confidence of parlia ment was, that their measures savoured too much of tory ism. (Hear, hear.) He hoped, however, after all, that the public would come to their rescue, as he saw no reason for turning out the present ministers to give their seats to others who would pursue a similar policy. He (Mr. Wakley) was delighted to hear the noble lord say that night, that he gave up the Poor-law Bill for the present session, it would give joy to thousands and hemdrcds of thousands of his countrymen. (Hear.) If the right hon. baronet would promise more liberal measures than the present government, he should have his vote on Thursday night. (Hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL said, if he bad proceeded with the Poor law Bill in the present state of parties, the discussion must have been a very protracted one, and could not have given satisfaction, as every gentleman seemed to be under the impression that he would shortly be called upon to state his opinions on the hustings. (Long continued cheering.) With respect to the Poor-law Bill itself he had no hesitation in saying that his opinion remained unaltered, and on what ever side the house he sat when that measure came under discussion, it would have his support. (Hear, hear.) At half-past six nearly all the members had left the house. Left sitting. INGENIOUS ESCAPE.—During the last two days considera ble sensation has been occasioned amongst the sheriff's offi cers of the metropolis, particularly those of Surrey, in con sequence of an escape being effected by a young female of the name of Rosa Grady, late landlady of the Griffin public house, White-street, Borough, from the custody of Coxe, the sheriff, George-street, Blackfriars-road, which was ef fected in the following ingenious manner. It appears that Miss Grady became indebted to Mr. Henry John Nicholson, of Vine-street, Westminster, who having been informed that his debtor was about leaving the kingdom sued out a writ in the Court of Common Pleas, which being intrusted to Coxe, he at once made his caption. The defendant immediately requested to be conveyed to his house, as she intended to bail the action and bring it into court. The arrest took place on Tuesday week, and upon the Thursday following Mr. Nicholson had to attend upon a judge's order before Mr. Justice Erskine to show cause why the defendant should not be bailed, upon the ground that she had no intention of leaving the kingdom. The order was quashed, and Miss Grady returned back to her old quarters. Coxe allowed the friends of the defendant to visit her at all hours. On Wed nesday or Thursday morning two females called, one of whom had an infant in her arms, and were, as a matter of course, admitted ; after being upstairs a short time they descended, when the child, which one of the females had, suddenly burst out into a violent fit of crying, upon which the mother put her face to that of the infant, and in that position they went out. By some of the neighbours it was observed that the female who had the infant handed her charge over to her companion and jumped into a cab, which was standing by the door, and drove off at a rapid rate. It ought here to be stated that Mrs. Coxe, the mother of the proprietor, was what is termed upon the key. After the lapse of some time, an old woman came down stairs, apparently' from the room occupied by the debtor, and with a great deal of apparent simplicity asked Mrs. Coxe if she could tell her where she could get a gown washed for Miss Grady. A reply was given in the negative, when the old woman was let out. Immedi ately after Mrs. Coxe thought that she had only let in two females, while three had gone out. She went up stairs, and found to her great discomfiture that their prisoner bad es caped. Coxe immediately took a cab, and proceeded to Euston-square, anticipating that his late prisoner had gone by the Birmingham railway, but upon his arrival there no tidings could be obtained. It has since been ascertained that Miss Grady acted the part of the mother to the child, and had disguised her head by a wig; and to perfect the decep tion, on reaching the. bottom of the stairs pinched the child, causing it to cry, and in the act of apparently pacifying it she hid her face. The worst part of the joke is, that Coxe is liable for the debt and expenses, the plaintiff having expressed his determination to come on the sheriff for them. AN OLD Hoax REVIVED.—One of those stale tricks which have so frequently been fully exposed through the medium of the press, took place on Thursday, and the dupe on this occasion, although a respectable man, declared, to the asto nishment of the officer on duty at the Greenwich station house, that he had never read or heard of any similar case before. Richard Smith, captain of the brig Express, of Whitby, now lying at the platform, London-bridge, was go ing over the bridge about half-past twelve o'clock on Thurs day, when be was met by a thin, sickly, sallow-complexioned man, who asked him if. he was not a north country captain; and on replying that he was, and from Whitby, the stranger said that would just suit him, as he wished to forward his son to his home there, finding that a press of business in London would not permit of his departure for several days. In answer to other inquiries, Captain Smith said he would take the stranger's son to Whitby for £l, and agreed to ac company the sharper to a public-house, to make arrange ments. While there, a tall, stout, sandy-whiskered man came in, who knew the first sharper, and they entered into general conversation about politics. The corn laws being a prominent feature, it gave him an opportunity of enlarging on the benefit he had recently derived from an accession of good fortune, be having just had left him a landed estate in Cornwall, and £lOOO in the funds. He further appeared to be so enamoured with the conversation of the captain, that, in a most generous manner, he offered to purchase him a new brig : however, this was refused, the captain saying he already had a very good one. The thin man considered the captain was extremely foolish in not availing himself of so fine an opportunity of making his fortune, inasmuch as he could trade with her as he pleased, and pay such interest to his friend as he might think proper, after handsomely remune rating himself. The confederates then said they were per fect strangers in London, and wished to see all they could, and asked the captain if he knew any one at Greenwich. The captain having replied in the affirmative, a trip to see the Royal Hospital was then proposed, and as the captai was not particularly engaged, he agreed to accompany them n . The stout man refusing to go by coach for fear it might turn over, the three ultimately went down by the railway, and went to the King's Arms public-house, in King-street, where, after having something to drink, the stout man pulled out a roll of what the captain took to be Bank of England notes, and placed them in his fob, saying it was the most secure thing countrymen could do. The captain said he had only five £5 notes in his pocket-book, and thought them safe there ; but was ultimately persuaded to let the stout man put them into his fob. The captain said he was quite sober, and saw the man roll them up on the table, and felt him p ut them int o his pocket. They the n l e ft the house, and proceeded to the hospital ; but just as they were going in, the stout man ex claimed, " By God, I've left my handkerchief at the King's Arms, and requested, as a particular favour, that Captain Smith would return for it, as he did not wish to leave his sick friend, and he was afraid the distance back again would distress him. Captain Smith returned to the King's Arms, and asked the landlord if he or his servant had seen a silk handkerchief. He replied in the negative, and asked the captain if he had lost anything, as he bad some distant recol lection of seeing his stout friend in company with suspicious characters on a former occasion. The captain's suspicions for the first time were aroused, and on searc hin g h is fob he discovered that, i ns t ea d of having five £5 Bank of England notes, he had a piece of brown paper, wrapped in which were (oh, cruel joke !) three pieces of Tom spring's Life in Lon don. Upon proceeding to the Royal Hospital, the captain found, to his dismay, that his generous patron and his sick I friend had been so suddenly recovered by the salubrious air of Greenwich, as to proceed farther without waiting for the captain's return. tpping Entriligenrt.

Since this day se'nnight we have received only about 3.000 quarters of Oats from Ireland, and of all other articles of British produce the arrivals !have been very light. From abroad the im ports include 6,985 quarters of Wheat, 2,620 quarters of Beans. and 3,300 barrels of Flour. There have been released from bond 4,800 quarters of Wheat, 2,470 quarters of Beans, and 156 barrels of Flour. The town and neighbouring millers and dealers have, this week. been buyers, to a tolerably fair extent, of fresh parcels of free foreign Wheat : a few purchases have also been made for Ireland, and we quote prices of such descriptions 2d per bushel higher than at the close of last week ; stale qualities have met little notice and are unchanged in value. Flour has also been been better sold, home manufacture realizing an advance of Is per sack, and free foreign an improvement of lid per barrel : the quantity of the latter offering is become small. Oats and Oatmeal have both been in limited request, and are rather cheaper. Sweet grinding Barley, being scarce and a little more inquired for, has brought rather more money : 4s 4d to 4s 8d per 601bs for free foreign. Beaus have sold slowly though offered at Is per quarter decline : Egyptian, of which, there are several parcels in the market, may be bought at 34s to 35s per quarter. Peas as last noted. In the early part of the week a cargo of Odessa Wheat was sold, in bond, at 4s 6d; and about 3,000 barrels of Flour bave changed hands at 20s to 23s per barrel : the latter price paid for prime Western Canal. i,GNDON GAZETTE.- FRIDAY, MAY 21 PARTNERSHIPS DISEiGIA ED Fairclongh and Wyatt, Liverpool, attornies—J.
