Her number of passengers was 42 intelligence is received by her of the President The Acadia reached Boston on the 7th instant, having made the pas 'from Liverpool iu eighteen days and a half after terous passage. - The new president, General Harrison, after a few days' illness, expired at Washington on the 4th instant. His dis ease was an inflammatory complaint, and though his death was rather sudden, it had been expected for several days. By the provisions of the constitution, the office of president has devolved upon Mr. Tyler, the late vice-president. General Harrison had been in office precisely thirty days, and was in the 68th year of his age. The funeral took place at Wash ington on the ith instant. This is the first instance of the death of a president since the organization of the government of the States. Mr. Tyler is described as belonging to the rational and practical class of politicians, and coinciding ge nerally with the principles of Mr. Madison. He has always been held in very high estimation by the citizens of his native state, and has occupied an important position in the councils of the nation. He coincides in the sentiments of General Harrison, and being a man of independent character, will take a high and patriotic stand. He is a warm friend of Mr. Clay, though they differ on many points of public policy. As far as regards the internal affairs of the government, Mr. Tyler concurs generally in the doctrines broached by Mr. Wise in his speech at the last session of congress, and it is not doubted that the latter gentleman will occupy an impor tant and confidential relation to the administration. Mr. Tyler arrived at Washington on the 6th instant, and took the oath as president ; and the following extract from the New York Herald conveys all the intelligence, as to his intentions, which we can gather from the papers before us : Since the arrival of Mr. Tyler at Washington, the friends of the existing cabinet have represented that no change in the policy of the government will be made by the new Pre sident, from that which bad been marked out by the late President and his cabinet. Notwithstanding these assurances, we have strong reasons to believe that Psesident Tyler will change the policy of the government in certain important features, though perhaps not in others.—Nothing can be in ferred to the contrary from the fact of his retaining the old cabinet. Under the peculiarly affecting circumstances in which Mr. Tyler assumed the functions of President, it would have been rude and discorteous to have acted or talked in any other way than he is represented to have done. Nothing definite can be inferred from these circumstances. Mr. Tyler's whole public life has been devoted to an opposi tion to the banking system—to a national bank—to a na tional debt—to a protective tariff—and to a distribution of the public lands. Is it likely he will abandon them now ? He has pledged himself only to a single term in office—to a pure and economical government—and to all removal for opinion's sake. Arguing from these facts, is it not highly probable, that, sooner or later, a reconstruction of the cabinet will take place —and a new developement of the policy of the government be made ? On the subject of our foreign affairs—and particularly in our relations with England—we have no doubt the new Pre sident will pursue the same policy that General Harrison had marked out for himself—but in financial matters, there is little probability he will sanction a national bank or a na tional debt. The recent startling developements of the United States Bank in Philadelphia will only strengthen Mr. . Tyler in his original views on this point. In fact the moral character of the country is utterly disgraced by the practices of bankers, and the management of the system. The greatest excitement in Philadelphia had been occa sioned by the report of the Committee of Investigation into the affairs of the United States bank. The document shows very conclusively that the bank has been not only sadly mis managed, but that the public and the shareholders have been largely robbed by many very thinly glossed over transactions of its officers. Enormous loans have been drawn out of the bank by Mr. Biddle and his friends, which are characterised in the broadest terms as robberies. As an instance of what has been practised, it is stated that Mr. Jaudon's agency for the bank abroad cost about four hundred thousand dollars. It is set forth in the report that in connexion with the great ootton speculations of the bank with well-known firms of the town up to July, 1837, the amount advanced for the purchase of cotton, was 2,188,000 dollars, and that the whole of the cotton transactions were 8,900,000 dollars. Some profit was realised by former speculations of this kind, but by the last shipment 900,000 were lost. No less than 31,000,000 dollars of stock have been taken from different people in settlement of accounts. It was confidently alleged, that the new President would not sanction either a national bank or a national debt. A very large meeting of the share holders was held in Philadelphia on the Bth instant, at which ten resolutions of the committee, appointed to examine the condition of the bank, were presented. The fifth resolution had reference to the long talked of arrangements with the other city banks. The committee advise that all agencies be discontinued, and that the bank be devoted henceforth to the interests of the mercantile community. The stock of the bank had at first deteriorated, but subsequently it advanced two per cent., and encouragement was ensuing from the feeling that the worst was known, and that the concern was likely to be better managed. The money market was apparently in a more healthy than it had been for some time. On the evening of the 9th, the transaction closed with a fair demand at the following rates : London bills, city endorse ment 1071 a 1071 4d.76c. a 4d.77c Southern, without endorse- ment Bills on Paris " Amsterdam, " Hamburg, " Bremen, 107 a 1071 7d.75c. a 4d.76d 5f.281c. a 5f.30c 391 c. a 39ac 35-Ic. a 3:sic 76c The cotton market presented no material change.

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 7.—You will probably have heard so many divergent opinions as to the cause of the fall of Reschid Pacha. that I will state what I happen to know on the subject. On Sunday, the 28th of March, Reschid Pacha brought forward and proposed for adoption by the Porte a commercial code of laws, which had been very care fully prepared and perfected by M. Alfonse Royer, under the auspices of Fethi Ahmed Pacha. Sonic of the ulemah (men of the law) opposed the introduction of the tiew code. They were decidedly of opinion that the Ottoman government were already in possession of a general code of laws, which was the best guide in all cases of justice—viz. the Sheri Sheriff, or, in other words. the Koran. Reschid Pacht rose, and with some warmth represented that the Sheri Sheriff was very far from being perfect, and could not properly be made applicable to the matters of commerce and material interests, which required human laws. When the Sheri Sheriff was compiled, there were no bills of exchange, no maritime in surance, no steam-boats ! This speech must have been accompanied by some expressions very disrespectful in the estimation of the ulemah, for several of them, as well as others, who are proud of showing attachment to their reli gion, started up, declared they were perfectly shocked that the minister for foreign affairs should venture to treat the holy laws so irrevently, adding that they positively would not participate in an act so reprehensible ; whereupon Reschid Pacha, who was supported by Ahmed Fethi Pacha, got into a debate, which soon took the character of a complete dis pute, with the ulemah, who proclaimed their intention to leave the council and never again set foot in it, if such im pious *trines were permitted to be promulgated. Some of the influential members who stand high with the men of the law (among others Riza Pacha), interfered, and with great difficulty succeeded in pacifying the ulemah and other coun cillors, who had taken offence at the discourse of Reschid Pacha and Fethi Pacha. An end was put to the dispute finally, the measure in contemplation being rejected and abandoned. The whole affair was reported, as all others are, to the Sultan, who immediately ordered a firman to be drawn up, dismissing from their offices the two offending pachas. The news from Alexandria and Malta is not important. - IHE BISHOP OP WORCESTER.—This estimable died at Worcester at about half-past nine on Saturday The right rev. lord (Dr. James Robert Carr) was ,crated bishop in 1824, and translated in 1831, and.has behind him a character for sincere piety and the most 'able personal qualities.

The republic continues still in a very unsettled state, which the President appears to have convinced himself of, from having had several pieces of cannon planted on and near the convent in which he resides, as a personal safe guard against the revolutionary movement, said by every one to be at hand. The policy of the long-talked-of invasion of the Texian shores by Mexico, is elucidated in one of our letters thus :—" I am informed by a gentleman connected with the seat of government, that Santa Anna's party have been urging another attack on Texas, and recommended that Bustamente should command the expedition. But the Pre sident has scented out their object, believed to be, that an advantage of his absence would be taken for to seize upon the capital." The high road from Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico is in fested more than ever with robbers, so much so, that there is no possibility of passing without being robbed, unless with a very strong escort. The merchants complain of commerce being nearly at a stand still; the smaller establishments can barely clear their expenses; Tampico is full of soldiers, and with only provisions enough to last four days, and no money ; giving rise to fears (at the packet's sailing) that they may become desperate and pillage the town. The .British con sul, Mr. Crawford. it is reported, will come to England per next packet. From Havannah we find that the new gover nor, Valdez, had given great satisfaction. The Comus was at Vera Cruz collecting government money for the West Indies. iimptr(4l PaViihititritt, HOUSE OF COMMONS MONDAY PARLIANIENTA RI 'VOTERS (IRELAND) DILL. Cif• the motion of Lord MORPETII the house went into ootnmittee on the parliamentary voters (Ireland) bill. Mr. Bernal in the chair. Lord How lex rose to move the following amendment, after the words " no person " in line H, to omit all the words to. the end of the clause, and to insert, " Claiming under any act or acts now in force, to be entitled to be re gistered, and to vote as a parliamentary elector for any coun ty, in respect of any treehold or leasehold property in his actual occupation, shall be deemed to have a beneficial inte rest herein, of the clear yearly value required by such act or acts, except as hereinafter provided." The noble lord said, he considered many and serious objections must be raised against the clauses in the government bill. (Hear, bear.) He wished the value of property to be ascertained by assessment, and what it ought to be rated at for the poor. (Hear.) He did not think the solvent tenant test could be safely followed, and he intended to propose as an amendment that the party claiming a right to vote should have " abeneficial interest of £5, after deducting rent and other charges." The beneficial in terest of £lO contended for by Mr. O'Connell, after the de ductions which that member professed to allow, would not be unfairly represented by this - X5 rating. There were some persons, not included in the £8 leaseholders' test, whom this £5 rating would admit : those, for instance, who paid a very low rent for a property not rateable in all at so much as £B, but yet yielding to the holders a profit of more than £5 be yond that low rent. But as he was aware that on the other hand there would be many voters whom the £8 leaseholders' test would admit, but whom his £5 property rating would ex clude, he was disposed to move also another change, admitting a large class of voters, a change which would substitute for the government proposal of a rating on a lease at a low rent, a proposal of •a rating at a higher rent, but without any lease. The circumstances of Ireland, however, were so different from those of England, and her general wealth so far inferior, that the English £5O franchise would be too high for Ireland. What the proper amount would be he was not yet prepared to state ; but it should be an amount which would give a constituency at least as numerous as that which existed immediately after the reform act. All he should now ask of the House would be merely to consent to the principle. It would be said that tenants without leases would be deficient in independence. He did not think it was found to make much difference whether the tenant had a lease or not ; for, except in times of great excitement, times happily rare, all kinds of tenants very generally desired to vote with their landlords. The most dependent tenants in Ire land were the tenants of the smalle-t farms, such tenants as the Government measure proposed to enfranchise. That measure would lead to the fraud of leasing small properties at very high rents, with an engagement for a debate so long as lie voter should continue to vote with his landlord. But eve': by adopting the low amount of £8; it was by no means clear that any considerable number of voters would be pro duced. For though much of the new leasing would be frau dulent, the whole amount of new leasing would be diminished by the general indisposition of the Irish landlords to trust their tenants with the franchise. There was another ar gument which might be brought against him from the Conservative side of the House,—that he had laid no ground for altering the Reform Act. The answer was, that the people of Ireland were entitled to a sufficient representation, which at present they did not possess. There had been a great reduction in the number of the Irish voters, chiefly amongthe lower classes. A fair settlement of this question would be a great boon to Ireland, and one which the conservative party itself would find it expedient to concede rather than suffer the constituency to dwindle as it otherwise must. He then moved to omit those words at the end of the first clause which abrogate the beneficial interest franchise created by the reform act, for the purpose of ena bling him, in the second clause, to define that beneficial in terest by the £5 rating propounded in the earlier part of his speech. Lord MORPETH said, he regarded the amendment of Lord Howick as merely verbal, and was prepared to abide b./ the test proposed by government. Mr. C. WOOD observed, that the Bill as it now stood de stroyed the whole qualification based upon property, and made the franchise dependent sorely on occupation, but the amendment proposed would not prevent Ministers from after wards adding their own new qualifications also. Sir G. GREY opposed the amendment, and was replied to by Mr. C. Wood, after which Lord STANLEY rose. That amendment was no verbal one, he said, which raised the question whether the whole existing law and principle of beneficial interest should be swept away. The country would not easily be persuaded to treat that as a trivial matter. He agreed with Lord Howick that an undue and unnatural diminution of the Irish constituency, from the amount intended by the Reform Bill, was not to be permitted. It was therefore assumed that such a diminution had already taken place. Mr. O'Connell, however, had expressed his opinion during the progress of the Reform Bill, that it would not bring the number up to 30,000. There was so great an excitement on the• first registry after that bill, and so little opposition, that the numbers amounted to 52,000. They still increased, nomi nally, till the octennial period; and then, of course, they were reduced by the striking off of many thousands. Yet at this day they were between 40,000 and 50,000, exceeding by many thousand persons the numbers which the Reform Bill was framed and expected to yield. When he should see an alarming diminution of the constituency, he should gladly co-operate with Lord Howick for the redress of that evil ; but he would not, because some gentlemen declined to grant leases of their property, consent to inundate the con stituency by letting in voters without any property whatever. Mr. O'Cos:NELL pettishly said that no impression could be made upon the house by that important fact. Lord Howick would have better evinced his good wishes towards Ireland by moving to restore the 405.-freeholders than by aiding the opposition. Lord J. RUSSELL said be thought £5 the proper quali fication, but had given way to the general proposal for £8 in the hope that the question might be settled. The amend ment was not much more than a question of wording, but he would not concede it because it would introduce inconveni ences into the subsequent clauses. Sir ROBERT PEEL said the noble lord bad done what he usually did when his case was peculiarly defective—he had made a general declamation on popular rights, to raise a cheer behind him ; and under the cover of that cheer be had retired from further discussion, and fancied he had made a successful speech. Referring to the expectations entertained by the framers of the reform bill, and by Mr. O'Connell himself, with respect to the numbers of the Irish consti tuency, he showed that these numbers did now far exceed all those expectations. But if the numbers were really diminished, what were the remedies proposed ? In thirty two Irish counties, the Government proposed the same uniform franchise which belonged to the borough ; ex cluding property, and giving everything to occupation. If property were excluded from the county franchise in Ireland, how could it be retained in England ? And what confidence could be placed in the legislation of a set of Ministers, who, after taking time to deliberate throughout the recess, bad brought forward such a measure as this, suddenly changing, two or three days ago, their £5 to an £8 qualification ! Lord John had twitted the Conservatives for not accepting the £B. Their objection was not to mere amount—it was to principle ; they required for the counties a qualification of property, not of occupasion. To the general principles laid down by Lord Howick he agreed, although he did not intend to support his details. The effect of the present amendment was the same as if it bad been an abstract resolution affirm ing the principle of beneficial interest as a part of the fran chise •, and that amendment he should support. If it were carried, it must be fatal to the principle of this bill—to that principle which went to exclude property from its influence in the franchise of counties; and if counties in Ireland, then of counties in England also. He vindicated, by reference to the testimony given in 1825 by the leading Catholics the disfranchisement of the• 4o s. free h o lder s u nder the Relief Bill ; and concluded by strongly declaring his opinion that the conduct of ministers on this question had disentitled them to the confidence of parliament. The committee at length divided on the important motion, " that the words proposed to be left out stand part of the question," when the numbers were — AYES NOES MAJORITY AGAINST MINISTERS-21 HOUSE OF LORDS.—TIIESDAY. The Marquis of WESTMEATH asked if the noble Marquis (of Normanby) had not, in a letter to the lord-lieutenant of the Queen's County, designated some gentlemen as a Roman Catholic " Rector. Unless he lead heard this from the noble marquis himself, he could scarcely credit it, when he recollected how anxious the Roman Catholic clergy were to re-assert those titles. The Marquis of Normanby said, that in his answer to a letter from Lord Rosse, he believed he had used the expres sion ; but he had done so in error, and guile unintentionally. The noble marquis took that opportunity of reading letters from various law officers of the crown, asserting that Mr. Biddulph had expressed his satisfaction at the jury empanel led to try the parties who had attempted, as was alleged, to assassinate him. The Earl of CRARLEVILLE once more read the letter of Mr. Biddulph, denying that he had done so, and said that whichever party was right, justice had not been done, and the public mind never could be satisfied, knowing that three ribandmen were upon the jury. The Earl of WICKLOW said he was bound in justice to the noble marquis to declare, without offering any opinion as to the discrepancy between the parties, that he considered the noble marquis to have been fully justified in the statement he had made on a former occasion, and that he was also justified in still retaining the same opinions. The Marquis of NORMANBY felt it only necessary for him to protest against the supposition that there were three ri bandmen on the jury adverted to. The Earl of FALMOUTH presented a petition from Truro, praying for inquiry into the reasons which had caused the removal of the West India packet station from Falmouth to Dartmouth. This lead to some discussion, in the course of which Lord MELBOURNE stated that the Admiralty had deputed three gentlemen to inquire as to the best port from, whence the mails should be despatched ; and they had reported in favour of Dartmouth. The packets were really to depart from Southampton, and were only to call for the mails at Dart mouth. . The Marquis of NORM ANBY postponed the Drainage of Buildings bill until Friday ; and their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY Notice was given by Mr. EASTHOPE that he would move, on the 11th of May, for leave to bring in a bill for the abo lition of church-rates. _ . Mr. FRESHFIELD moved for the appointment of a select committee, to inquire into the comparative advantages of the southern ports of England, as points from whence to despatch the West India mails. The hon. gentleman contended that no port offered such extensive advantages as Falmouth, from whence, however, the packets had been withdrawn in order to be transferred to Dartmouth, from motives of private and local interest. The public had a right, when an inferior port ,vas selected, to have an inquiry instituted with a view to ascertain which was really the port best suited, or what might be the reasons for selecting that which was manifestly least suited for the purpose. Sir C. LEMON seconded the motion. Mr. F. H. BERKELEY contended that Bristol was the best port for the purpose, particularly if the mails were to be con veyed by steam-vessels. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the go vernment had been solely actuated by the desire of consult ing the true interests of the public. They had no power to c ompel the company, who had taken the contract, to make any port their station—they could only decide upon the place at which the mails were to be taken up, and they had, ac cordingly, decided upon Dartmouth. Sir H. VIVIAN was of opinion that Falmouth was the Preferable por: ftom whence to send the mails, inasmuch as it was 56 miles nearer to the West Indies tfian Dartmouth. Mr. O'CoNNELL contended, that the best ports would have been Valentia, Cork, or Bearhaven, in the south of Ire land, from whence a steamer would take only seven or eight days to go to Halifax. Mr. HUME thought the statement made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer quite satisfactory. Sir J. SEALE was of opinion, that Dartmouth was the most eligible port, the harbour being remarkably safe, and decidedly the best in the channel for the purpose. After some further discussion, the motion of Mr. Fresh field was carried, by a majority of 54 against.so. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL moved the appointment of a committee to consider the expediency of erecting a building in the neighbourhood of the inns of court, for the sittings of the courts of law and equity, in lieu of the present courts adjoining to Westminster Hall, with a view to the more speedy, convenient, and effectual administration of justice. Thi4 bQn, 4n4 learn. 4 etAtlgnto 1414, tGtzt Sb rtat Won.. vanisoce was ocaasloned both to solicitors and suitors by the inns of court, and various plans had been suggested to remedy that which was really a great evil. Amongst these plans was one for the erection of courts of law and equity in Lincoln's Inn-tields, and another suggested Clare-market, but these were matters that would be-for the committee to report upon. Sir E. WILmoT seconded the motion, which was agreed to. Sir M. Wool), having presented a petition from thc no bility, gentry, bankers, &c., of the metropolis, praying that the house would adopt some means for opening Waterloo, Southwark, and Vauxhall Bridges, moved for the appoint ment of a select committee to take into consideration the several plans for the improvement of the metropolis, con cerning which reports were made to the house in the years 1836, 38, 39, and 1840, together with any other plans for the same object which they may deem worthy of consideration, and also the petitions for throwing open the bridges free of toll. The motion was agreed to ) and the house adjourned HOUSE OF LORDS.—WEDNESDAY The House of Lords did not sit to-night. It is proposed by some parties who have known the un fortunate Mr. WILLIAM JENNER, in times long gone by, at home and abroad ; when he was respectably connected and doing a large business in the Cotton trade—and who very sincerely deplore the melancholy events which have so recently occurred to himself and his family :—that a sub scription should be opened for the purpose of raising a fund to support, educate, if necessary, and put in some way of getting an honest livelihood the only remaining child, a boy about 13 years old, who (appears to have shewn very great courage and presence of mind under the awful and distres sing circumstances by which he was surrounded, and is now left destitute in the world. Those persons, therefore, who are disposed to promote the above object, will please to signify their kind intentions to either Of the subscribers, who will be happy to receive any contributions, and to dispose of them as may be deemed best for the benefit of the poor boy, by a committee to be ap pointed hereafter. It is further understood that Mrs. Jenner, if she should survive, shall be included in any arrangements that may be made for the disposal of the amount collected. J. B. CLOUGH. WILLIAM STUART JOHN GARNETT. ANDREW LOW. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tit is DAN (From Messrs. R. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.) Although the arrivals into this place since our report of the 27th instant have been generally inconsiderable, and the stocks of Wheat in the hands of our millers are allowed to be very moderate ; yet with a continuance of exceedingly fine weather, the trade on the whole has been heavy from the close of Tuesday until to-day, but without inducing holders to force sales below the currency of our last circular. Duties for the ensuing week have been raised on foreign Wheat to 23s Bd, on Peas to 12s Gd per qr., and on Flour to 14s 2-id per barrel, remaining, in all other respects, un altered. In anticipation of the increased duty on Wheat and Flour, b oth these articles in bond have been entered freely for con. sumption during the week ; about 20,000 quarters of the former, and about 9,000 barrels of the latter, being, in the absence of any official return from the customs, the quanti ties.supposed to have been cleared since the 23d instant. At our market this morning transactions in Wheat were effected upon a moderate scale to needy buyers, principally at a decline of ld. per 701bs. from the rates last noted—and a few parcels, held by more anxious sellers, were sold on still lower terms, but which there was no apparent disposition to concede generally. _ _ ' Flour of all descriptions, both' free and in bond, met a very limited demand at late prices. Barley, Malt. Beans, and Pease, attended with an ex tremely languid sale, barely maintained our last quotations. Oats, although not in lively request, fully supported Tues day's rates, very few good parcels remaining unsold. Oat meal was held rather more firmly, but not readily saleable, at higher prices.

RUSSELL, in moving the order of the day for the house resolving itself into committee on the parliamentary voters (Ireland) bill, explained the course which government intended to pursue with respect to it. He said it was the opinion of the ministry that the vote of Monday night could not be considered as conclusive on a question of such impor tance. The second reading of the bill, containing, as it did, the proposal for a £5 franchise, had been affirmed by no less than 301 members of that house ; and the amendment, which had been carried on Monday night, was not moved with the view of negativing any franchise proposed by the bill, but was moved by his noble friend (Lord Howick) as a kind of franchise which he thought good, and which he proposed as an addition to the franchise proposed by the bill. It would be perfectly consistent, if the house should adopt the fran chise proposed by government. that it should also adopt the franchise of his noble friend as an addition to it. He should therefore proceed with the bill, and ask the sense of the house upon the franchise proposed by his noble friend (Lord Morpeth). Lord Howler( said it might be convenient to the house, if he stated to the house the course he meant to pursue. He still continued of 'opinion that the county franchise should be settled upon the principle he had proposed, retaining the existing franchise of beneficial interests, and opening up a further franchisei by means of occupation. The house had affirmed the principle of s property qualification, and he would say in reference to what had fallen from his noble friend (Lord J. Russell), that he never would, have dreamed of proposfng his amendment, except as an addition to some other franchise. If the house should agree upon some other franchise, he should then, and in that case only, move his amendments. The most important of the amendments was, that which went to alter the occupation franchise, by doing away with the necessity of a lease. . He would not, however, interfere with the progress of the measure before the house, by proposing amendments which, though in his opinion, per fectly satisfactory, had, nevertheless, no chance of being ac quisced in by the house. At the same time, this amendment falling to the ground, it was quite impossible for him to sup port the clause the government were about to bring under the consideration of the house. The proposal of a clause which there was no probalility would pass into a law, would have the effect of leaving this subject another year without any attempt to remedy its evils. Neither could he support the bill of his noble friend (Lord Stanley), believing, as he did, that nearly all the evils of the Irish system of registra tion flowed from the undefined state of the franchise, which no bill merely dealing with the registration could possibly remedy or remove. Sir R. PEEL felt it necessary to explain the course he had thought it right to take in the debate of Monday, and the position in which the question now stood. He understood that her Majesty's government had undertaken to settle the great question of defining the franchise, and correcting the abuses of the registration system. Instead, however, of de fining the franchise, the government had brought forward a proposition for totally subverting the franchise, and for sub stituting another in its room—a franchise founded upon oc cupancy as tested by rating for counties, and a £5 franchise for boroughs. This he understood the noble lord (Howick) to object to, an to propose in lieu of it the principle of the beneficial interest. Under these circumstances they ap proached the discussion, and he for one certainly thought they were discussing the great principle of the bill. Now, however, the noble lord opposite (Lord John Russell) stated that, as it was only proposed as an additional franchise, there would be no inconsistency in admitting it, not as a substitute, but as a supplemental franchise. The noble lord (Howich) had stated it to be so in the first instance, and the hon. mem ber for Halifax had explained it very clearly, and said they would never have dreamed of bringing it forward except to supply a defect in, and to add to another mode of franchise. Yet the noble lord then opposed most strenuously the amendment so framed, which he was now willing to adopt. He thought the noble lord, in bringing forward a bill of such importance as this, should be able to give to the house an assurance that there was reasonable ground for supposing that it would pass in the other House of Parliament. Some papers had been laid on the table of the house that very day, which showed how difficult it was with the present informa tion to define the proper franchise for Ireland. One of these reports stated explicitly that there were no means of judging what number of electors would be created in Ireland by any given amount of rating, combined with tenure. He thought they would be guilty of exciting false expectations if they supported an experiment like this, with the details of which they had not sufficient means of be coming acquainted. Lord MORPETH defended the course pursued by the go vernment, and said that though government was prepared to admit the amendment of Lord Howick as an addition to the franchise, yet they still insisted on the alternative condition of a rating to the annual value of £B, and upon this £8 rating they were determined to take the sense of the house. Mr. Sergeant JACKSON contended that the noble lord had entirely mistaken what had fallen from the right hon. baronet. Mr. H. GRATTAN commented strongly on what he called the political ugglery carried on in the house, and taunted Lord Howick for being satisfied with obtaining a majority against his friends, and then backing-out of his proposition in the best way he could. The house then went into committee, and the first clause as amended was agreed to. When the second clause was proposed, Mr. HE ME moved on amendment, the effect of which would be to render leases unnecessary to qualify parties to vote, and to substi tute a simple occupancy. Some technical difficulty arose, and in order to effect .his object, he moved that a lease of one year should be sufficient to qualify an elector. After some discussion, Lord J. RUSSELL said he would not deny that a franchise grounded upon occupation might be beneficial in Ireland, but he was not so far satisfied that such a franchise would not lead to great evils as to justify him in adopting it. lie feared the voters under such a tenure would be too far dependent upon their landlords to render it prudent to grant it. The noble lord expressed a hope that the house would not refuse to millions of Roman Catholics their constitutional rights, who, if they had not in that house a legitimate channel for the expression of their grievances, might have recourse to the more dangerous sys tem of clubs and secret associations. Sir R. PEEL said they had now before them the original proposition of the government, and a division as to whether one or fourteen years should be adopted would not be mate rial, he would rather have the bill exactly as her majesty's government wished to place it before the house, it being per fectly notorious that when the clause came to be proposed he shonld give his vote against it altogether. If, therefore, the amendment of the hon. member for Kilkenny was pressed to a division, he would vote against it, in order that the division might be fairly taken upon the proposition of the govern ment. After a few observations from Mr. C. WOOD, Mr. SHELL, in supporting the proposition of the govern ment, reminded Lord Howick that he had voted with Lord Althorp in opposing the Chandos clause of the Reform Bill, and yet he sought to extend a similar franchise to Ireland. He also took the opportunity of assuring Mr. Hume that al though he was member for Kilkeuny, he knew no more, nay, knew far less, of the feelings and habits and character of the people of Ireland than he (Mr. Sheil) did of th e people of Middlesex. Unless they were prepared to give the protec tion of the ballot, he called upon them not to confer a fran chise which must make the party who received either a slave or a martyr—which would inevitably drive him to servitude the most ignominious, or to the most disastrous ruin. He thought that when the tight hon. baronet (Sir R. Peel) found fault with the government in a speech pregnant with the most subtle disquisition, he ought at the same time that he was finding fault with all the details of the bill, to have stated what it was that he thought government ought to do, or what he would himself propose to have done were he at the head of the government. Mr. O'CONNELL said it was unnecessary to divide the house on the amendment, for the clause was an affirmative one, and he might at any time after move that a lease for one year should be sufficient also to entitle a man to vote. The government would vote against his hon. friend (Mr. Hume), and so would the right hon. baronet (Sir R. Peel), and he had therefore not the smallest hope of carrying his amendment. He would vote in favour of the government measure because it would be beneficial to Ireland, and he trusted the house would also support it, for by so doing they would conciliate a people easily governed through the medium of their affections. On a division, Mr. Hume's amendment was negatived by a majority of 513 to 47. Mr. Hume moved that the blank in the clause for the rating should be filled up with the words " five pounds," instead of " eight pounds," as proposed by the government. Lord MORPETH said the sum of £8 was fixed upon in order to conciliate as large a number as possible of the friends of Ireland, and he saw nothing to be ashamed of in adopting such a course. Mr. O'CONNELL supported the proposition of Mr. Hume. The committee again divided, and the motion of Mr. Hume was defeated by a majority of 434 to 126. Mr. BROTHERTON moved that the chairman should report progress, it being past 12 o'clock ; but the motion was de feated by 428 to 98. Mr. O'CONNELL moved that the chairman should leave the chair. The hon. and learned gentleman finding that if his motion were carried the bill would be lost, wished to withdraw it, but would not be allowed to do so by the oppo sition benches. Mr. WAKLEY then animadverted severely on the difficulty in which they had been placed by the vacillating conduct of the Government, and expressed his surprise that, after the division of Monday, they should have the courage to face the house. Lord J. RUSSELL defended the course pursued by the Go vernment in altering the franchise so as to meet the views of many of the hon. members on his own side of the house, and commented on the acrimony of the attack made upon them by the hon. member for Finsbur". If the clause before the house should be carried, he should certainly proceed with the bill, but if not carried he saw no use in proceeding with the remaining clauses. Mr. JERVIS complained that 'Mr. O'Connell was not al lowed to withdraw a motion inadvertently made. Mr. C. WOOD said he was opposed to di the clause, but could be no party to defeating the bill by dividing on such an amendment as this. Sir R. PEEL thought it would be more satisfactory to take the decision upon the merits of the clause itself rather than by taking advantage of a motion inadvertently made by a friend of bill. If, however, they waived the advantage thus given them, it should be on the understanding that to morrow (Thursday) they should resume the bill and come to a decision upon the merits. The arrangement was agreed to by Lord J. RUSSELL, the house reeumed, the orders of the day were disposed of, and the house adjourned. Days TIDE TABLE Height.

The gloomy accounts of the Manchester market, and the wide spreading rumours of working short time, continue to have their depressing effect upon our Cotton market, and we only wrote upon 20u6 bales to.day, at previous prices. • COTTON MARKET, APRIL 20. We have-had a better attendance of buyers in bur market to-day, but under existing circumstances their purchases are on a very limited scale, and though we have a gradually easier market, they do not on this account get much concession in price. The lower descriptions of American Cotton might be purchased in quantity id to id lb below Friday, whilst the better qualities remain steady. The amount ,of business is 3000 bales; exporters have been in the market, and bought 300 good Boweds at 74d, and made an offer of -Lid for 509 Surats, which was declined.

The arrivals at this port since Tuesday last of every article in the Corn Trade have been moderate, with the excepton of American Flour, whicli has been very considerable. There has during the past week been very little improvement in the demand, although no further decline for Wheat can be noted in the quotations of last Tuesday. There has been, however, a little more inquiry for American and Canadian Flour, of which the quantity now here free of duty is exceedingty small. For other articles the demand has been very limited at last qnoted prices. The duty on foreign Wheat was, last Friday, reduced to 22s 86 per quarter, and on Flour to 13s lid per barrel, on all other Grain it remains unaltered. During the last fortnight a considerable quantity of foreign Wheat has paid duty, and continues slowly to find sales, free, at 9s 8d to gs 9d per per 70Ibs ; some speculative purchases have been made during the week of American Flour, in bond, here, and on the passage, at 238 per barrel, and smaller par cels for export have been sold at 23a lid to 245. The demand for Oats, in bond, for export, is at present very limited, but the prices of 3s 4d to 3s 5d per 45ib8. at which some small sales have been made, are steadily demanded by the importers. At this day's market, which was well attended by town and country dealers, sails to a fair extent were made of the finer de scriptions of Wheat, and the prices of last Tuesday for such were fully supported. The sale of Flour and all other articles was dull, but no alteration can be made in the quotations, except Oat and Oatmeal, which obtained a small advance. WHEAT, S. d. S. 6. INDIAN CORM, 10 4801 L.

Dispensaries' Office, 1, Fenwick-street, April 19. Iftarket6, ---~---~ LONDON CORN EXCHANGE The arrivals are tolerably good of both English and foreign grain. There is no alteration to notice in the prices from Monday, the trade being generally very dull. AFRIL 28 HULL CORN MARKET, APRIL 2G. The same dullness and inactivity continues to hang over the Corn trade : during the past week scarcely a business transaction passing beyond the immediate wants of our neighbouring and town millers. There are several arrivals of Wheat from abroad, chiefly from Hamburg, the bulk of which is landing under bond, only paying the present duty where sales can be made from the ship; these, however, have been only trifling. The quality is generally good, weighing 59 to 60 lb.. and some of the finer runs tit to 62 lb. per bushel. In Linseed, but little passing, and prices are looking down. Rapeseed as it arrives is generally landing, as importers will not submit to present .prices ; the accounts from Hamburg, (24th April), bring again higher rates, and further state that'stocks are nearly exhausted in that country. The demand for cakes, both rape and linseed, is falling off, and late prices with difficulty maintain cn the few sales made. Bones support late prices. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL 27 Very little demand in our Cotton Market to-day, yet we think there is a firmer appearance in it : the sales are esti mated at 1000 bales, at yesterday's prices.
