The house adjourned at ten minutes to twelve o'clock until Thursday next. IRELAND. DISGRACEFUL Or TRA GE.—On Sunday last some ruffians effected an entrance into the church of Newtownlimavady, Derry, and burned the Bible and Prayer-book, cut the carpet in pieces, besmeared the walls which had been recently painted, broke into the vestry and destroyed everything there, and made an ineffectual attempt to get into the organ loft, of course for the purpose of smashing the instrument.—Sounders's News-Letter. THUNDERSTORM IN DUBLIN.—On Tuesday, between 12 and 1 o'clock, Dublin was visited by a thunderstorm, which lasted for upwards of half-an-hour, with scarcely any intermission. It was followed by a heavy fall of rain and hail. The flashes of lightning were extremely rapid and brilliant. A man named White, residing in the Liberty, and by trade a weaver, was struck dead by the electric fluid. BRUTAL ATTEMPT AT MURDER.—A railway "navvy," named Doran, is in Cavan gaol awaiting his trial for having wantonly attempted to murder Mr. Henry, the engineer of the Mullingar Railway, by hitting him on the head with a pickaxe, and also behaving violently in the police-station at Crossdoney, where he struck at a police man with a pair of tongs, and severely wounded the servant girl. The only cause that can be assigned for this ruffianism is, that the fellow had been drinking heavily for ten days - previously. DESTRUCTION or A CONVENT.—The Loretto Convent, Dollymount, near Dublin, has been completely destroyed by fire. The priest was in the act of celebrating mass when some of the gauzy substance used in the decoration of the altar became ignited, and in a very short space of time the entire building was enveloped in flames. For a considerable period the fire had full play over the valuable structure, and when assistance did arrive it was of little or no value. The building and furniture, which were valued at £7,000, were completely destroyed. DEATH OF WILLIAMS THE SCRIPTURE READER.—The following is from the Cork Constitution:—Poor the Scripture reader, beaten some months ago at Aghada, died on Saturday at Milltown, county of Kerry, his medical attendant (a Romanist) stating, as we are informed, that he died of the injuries then received. With what feelings the intelligence will be read by those who'se consciences admonish them of the share they bore in the assault, we know not ; but the man is dead—dead in con sequence, it is medically stated, of the cruelties inflicted by their hands or at their instigation ; and if they deem killing him a "service to God," if they like, they may exult over the success of the means which they employed 'to accomplish it. THE WRECK OP THE STEAMER OLINDA., which was tost during the last winter, near Holyhead, has been pur chased by Mr. James Levingston, of this town, for a sum of £1,390, namely, the hull for £625, and the brasses, copper, and machinery for £765. The hull will be taken up piecemeal, but it is expected that the machinery will suffer very little damage. ISLE or MAN.—In furtherance of a movement which has been got up in the Isle of Man, to secure a harbour of refuge, and to adopt means to prevent government from unconstitutionally appropriating any portion of the revenue of the island for the liquidation of the expenses of collection, a meeting has been held at Douglas ; and Messrs. Moore and Aikin, of Liverpool, have been ap pointed a deputation to proceed to London to represent the matter to government. How THE CHARTIST SIR TOY ERSKINE PERRY WOULD MAZE HIS PEACE WITH THE INSULTED "PETTY" VOTERS. —The morning after the dinner at which the over-elated member for Devonport cleared off the premises of his friends, by which his election was won, and when his Dutch independence had evaporated, he was seen to make his way to the office of the master shipwright, who never meddles with politics, and paraded round the yard with this officer, bestowing outwardly his smiles, and, it might be readily supposed, inwardly his curses, on • those whose numbers made him thus swallow the leek.—Plymouth Mail. UNFOUNDED ACCUSATION.—On Tuesday, a young man, named Daniel Brannan, was brought up at the Police court, on remand, charged with the theft of some rice bags, which he was seen carrying. When taken into custody, he averred that he had bought the bags, although he did not know the name of the party from whom they were bought. The police-officer, 776, who apprehended Brannan, refused to accompany the accused to the spot where the alleged purchase took place, but lodged him in bridewell in spite of his remonstrances. At the re manded hearing, the party who had sold Brannan the bags appeared, and testified to his having honestly acquired the property - , and prisoner was immediately discharged. Mr. Sands, the magistrate, suspended the officer, observing that he had acted very wrong in not complying with the prisoner's request by accompanying him, in order that he might find the person from whom he said he had pur chased the bags. Mr. Clough reminded the magistrate that the officer had not been long in the force, and that if he had acted improperly, it was evidently from a desire to do his duty. It frequently happened that when a pri soner wished an officer to accompany him, as in this case, and the officer complied, a rescue was effecte d. He ho p ed the megistrate would reprimand him instead of suspending him. The magistrate said he would suspend the officer for else (ley only. He did not wish to discourage a zealous officer ; but, in this case, he thought a great want of judg ment had been displayed. LIVERPOOL CUSTOMS ESTABLISHMENT.—Estimates of the sums , required to defray the expenses of the several departments engaged in the collection and management of the public revenue of the United Kingdom for the year ending the 31st of March, 1855, have been printed b y order of the House of Commons. The departments com prised in the document are customs, inland revenue, and postoffice. The charges in conne xion with these have hitherto been defrayed out of the revenue, in its progress to the exchequer. A new act of parliament provides for the payment of the gross revenue into the exchequer ; and annual estimates will henceforward be submitted for the charges of management, in the form now for the first time laid before parliament. The salaries of and allowances to the officers on the customs establishment of this port are s tated in detail, with the pay of extra and glut officers, and incidental charges. The total of the estimated ex penses of the establishment for the year 1854-5 is £111,409, of which the sum of £94,409 is particulars sries alone. This sum is made up of the following :—Collector's salary, £2,200 ; comptroller, £7OO ; long-room clerks, SO in number (the principal clerk having a salary of £500), £5,580 ; warehousing department, 53 officers, £7,770 inspec t or -general of the out - door de p artment, £6OO ; nine l au di n g-surveyors, £ 4,150 ; 85 searchers and landing waiters, £19,800 ; gaugers' de p artment, 15 officers, 43,22 ; two timber measurers, £270 ; seven messengers, £420 ; 21. superintendent lockers and re-dipping officers, £5,768 ; 140 lockers, £11,455 ; 100 weighers, £6,500 ; two in spectors of the river, £615 ; 23 tide surveyo rs, £3,875 ; 18 inspectors of patrol; £1,700; 240 tide waiters and patrol, £19,595 ; 65 boatmen, £3,945 ; Runcorn, two officers, £l6l ; Garston, one ditto, £6O. The entire number of officers is 819. In addition to the salaries of these officers the foll ow ing items of estimated xpenditure are put down :—Pay to extra and glut officers, and provision for special services, and for any increase of business, £7,500 , travelling charges, £12.0 ; rents and repairs of buildings £Bl6 ; rent of warehouse for the deposit of tobacco in bond, £6,484 ; rates, taxes, and insurance, £l3O ; fuel and light, £350 ; postage, £BO ; purchase and repair of boats, including stores, £BO ; tradesmen's bills, £6OO ; miseel laneoes expenses, £B4O. These items, with the salaries, amount to £111,409, the total aggregate expenditure. It is stated, in a note appended to the return, that by the provisions of the law p o sit of is required to pro.vide a warehouse for the deposit of tobacco under bond. The rent on tobacco so warehoused in Liverpool amounts to about £1,200 per annum, and is brought to account as customs revenue. IMPORTANT TO SHIPOWNERS.--In the Court of Queen'a Bench, on Friday. Lord Campbell grave judgme case of Brown v. Byrne. • He said the question for decision wa s whether an action b y a shipowner against the in was of a bill of lading , to whom goods had been delivered at Liverpool, and who has accepted them, the bill of lading making them deliverab le, " he paying freight for them five-eighths of a penny per p ound, with -five per cent. primage and average accustomed," the latter may lawfully claim to retain for £l3B lls. 3d., the amount oof the that byfreiht at the rate specified , £ 1 16s 3d. ; on the grund the custom of Liverpool, he is entitled to a deduction of three months' discount from the freight. It is admitted that the custom exists, in fact, in regard of shipments from New Orleans and some other ports in the southern states of the American Union to Liverpool ; but it is objected to as bad in law, because it is inconsistent with the written document, the bill of lading. Five-eighths of a penny on the weight of the cargo is, it is said, equal to £l3B lls. 3d., the bill must be read as if that sum were specified in it, and the custom, if allowed, will change it to £136 15s. The principles on which this case is to be decided are perfectly clear ; the difficulty lies in the appli- • cation of them to the facts. Mercantile contracts are very commonly framed in a language peculiar to merchants ; the intention of the parties, though perfectly well known to themselves, would often be defeated if this language were strictly construed according' to its ordin import in the world at -lqge ; evidence, therefore, of m ary ercantile custom and usage is admitted in order to eound as to it and arr ive at its true meaning. Again, in all contracts the subject matter in which known usages prevail, parties are found to proceed with tbe tacit assumption of these usans • th e y commonly re duce into writing the special particulars of their agreement, but omit to specify these known usages, which are included, however, as of coarse by mutual understan din g ; ev idence, therefore, of such incidents is receivable. The contract, in truth, is partly express and in writing, partly implied or understood and unwritten. But in both these cases a restriction is established on the soundest principle ; but the evidence received must not be of a particularrepugnant to, or inconsistent with, the written contract. Merely that it varies the apparent contract is not ater enough to ex clude - the evidence, for it is impossible to add any i incident to the written terms of a contract without alter ing its.effect more or less ; neither in the construction of a contract among merchants, tradesmen, or others, will the evidence be excluded, because the words are in their ordi nary meaning ambiguous, for the principle of admission is, that words perfectly unambiguous in their ordinary meaning are used by the contractors in a different sense from that. The written contract expressly settles the rate of payment; the custom does not set this aside, indeed it adopts it, as that upon which it is to act, by establishing a claim for allowance of discount upon freight to be paid after that rate. The consignee undertakes to pay freight on delivery after that rate ; the shipowner undertakes to allow three months discount on freight paid after that rate ; the, latter contract is dependent on the former, but is not repugnant to it. If the bill of lading had expressed, or if from the language of it the intention of the parties could have been collected that the freight, at the specified rate, should be paid free from all deductions customary or otherwise, then it would case been rna to it to es the rite of set up the co' tom,.apd thenecoinvtorauledt have settl been brought within the restriction. freight, w h e ther or note iscunt is to be allowed on the n d tot at the custom applies. payment it leoes otp:at'jedgment ehould be entered for the lVe daerfeenofdanPtilniQ3 EXTRAORDINARY SCENII.—A rather laughable occur rence took place at the merchants' dining-rooms, Market street, Manchester, on Friday afternoon. The rooms were quite filled with gentlemen. Suddenly the safety valve of the boiler began to blow off, and the steam, in its escape, made a tremendous roar. The company were much alarmed. Many ran to the front door, others, endeavour hag to effect their escape, dashed through the windows and got into the streets, here and there the waiters were screaming, some fainting, and altogether it was a most alarming scene. Many in their frantic endeavours to escape jumped upon and destroyed the. tables, hat rails, brass rods, and plates. Ultimately the alarm subsided, and the company- returned to the rooms, some of theM with their hands and faces covered with blood, caused by the broken windows, others with their hats broken, &c. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt. The over pressure of the steam was caused by one of the boys in Messrs. Nowell's employ having neglected to ease it off gradually. —Manchester Courier. FLOOD AT ARDWICIC.—BURSTING OP A WATER MAIN. —On Friday morning, about half-past five o'clock, a water main burst in Downing-street, Ardwick, which completely inundated the street, and caused considerable damage. The pipes of the Corporation Waterworks laid down in the street are two feet in diameter, of cast-iron. About half-past five o'clock, one of the lengths of piping burst, in consequence of the pressure upon it, and forced a piece out about three feet wide and two feet long. The water soon found its way to the surface, and poured forth in a volume, covering the wbole width of the street like a river. The water entered the cellars of the Royal Oak, and filled them to a depth of four feet. All the barrels in the ale-cellar were washed off the stillages, and the contents of those on tap lost, and, in the spirit-cellar, 24 gallons of rum were lost. There was in the cellar a 0-inch pipe communicating with the river Medlock, which runs close by, but this was plugged up, otherwise it would have proved of considerable service. Mr. Wynn, who keeps the King's Arms, imme diately opposite to the Royal Oak, had his cellars filled to a depth of six feet. All his barrels were washed off the stillages, and the water knocked down a wall and washed out a window. On one side of Ardwick-bridge, nearly opposite the end of Tipping-street, some time ago a large grid leading into the river was constructed apparently in anticipation of some accident of the description that has occurred ; but for a considerable time past the scavengers have been in the habit of brushing mud through it into the river, until it became positively choked up. Had not this been the case, it would have answered its purpose in carrying off the water, and probably have saved much damage.—Manchester Courier. OVERCROWDING OF STEAMERS. Mr. Nichols, the proprietor of the Eastham ferry, was summoned before Mr. Mansfield, on Friday, for having committed a breach of the Passenger act, in allowing one of his ferry-boats, which sailed from Eastham to Liverpool on Good Friday, to carry 626 passengers, being an excess of 198 over the number allowed by the certificate from the Board of Trade. As soon as the defendant was aware that the boat had got nearly her full complement of passengers on board, he gave orders that no one else should be allowed to pass the pay gate. The order was strictly obeyed, but the excursionists were so anxious to get back to Liverpool, that being the latest boat, that they climbed over the rocks, and over a high wall, and made their way on to the boat, in spite of all that could be done to prevent them. Mr. Mansfield, iu imposing the lowest possible penalty of is. and costs, and ss. for each passenger in excess of the allowed number, observed that he had no doubt that there would. be a con siderable mitigation of the penalty incurred, if the facts of the case were presented before the Board of Trade. CONSIDERATE BENEVOLENCE. — We are informed that a benevolent lady in this town, from a consideration of the vast increase in the price of provisions, and all other necessaries, has generously sent a donation to the Blue Coat Hospital and other charitable institutions, feeling convinced of the great additional expense which must necessarily be incurred during the present year. We shall be happy to hear of similar donations, which could not be more seasonably offered than at the present time. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCIIESTER. — FRIDAY.

Lord Eglinton has named his f by Orlando out of Bathelle, Zuyder Zee, and f by Surplice out of Gala, 1 Festival. Mr. R. E. Cooper refused, during the last winter, the very large sum of 10,000 guineas for Autocrat, who was then first favourite for the Derby. Mr. John Henderson, of this town, hai advertised for sale his steeple chase horses Comeaway, Crabbs, Kaffir, Labyrinth, Augean, and Springy Jack. Baron Rothschild was the winner of a large sum on the Oaks, having backed Mincemeat from the confidence he always has in John Charlton, who rode her. The principal winners on the Derby are Sir Joseph Hawley, Mr. Gully, Mr. Hill, Mr. Arnold, Mr. Padwick, and other parties connected with John Day's stable. lord Orford's two I•ear olds Afikhan, Icarus, Firelight, and a filly by John 0 Gaunt, have arrived at W. Arnuli's stables, Newmarket, to be trained for their engagements. Mincemeat, the whiner of the Oaks, is by Sweetmeat, out of Hybla, by The Provost, and was bred by Mr. Cook son, her owner. She ran three times last year, without , showing any indications of being a first-class racer, Ando ver having beat her at Goodwood by a length and a half. Immediately after the race for the Derby, Mr. Gully, the owner of Andover, plentifully supplied with cham pagne the jockeys who rode in the race. At Stockbridge (where the horse was trained) and all the adjacent villages there were great rejoicings, and the inhabitants were regaled in the same liberal manner as in the years when Cossack and Pyrrhus the First were the winners. Manchester races take place to-morrow and the two following days. The increasing popularity of this meet ing, from the larger and better class of horses entered for the various staks, is quickly raising it to the rank of a first-rate place of sport. The , large bonuses given to the stakes, cannot fail to insure large fields of horses for each contest; and the immense population of the surrounding district always render that support which makes the ma nagement profitable. • Andover, the winner of the Derby, was bred by Wm. Etwall, Esq., of Longstock, near Andover, and was sold to Mr. Gully, when a yearling, with contingencies relative to his engagements. He is a bay horse, standing about 151 hands high, with a blood-like handsome • head ; good neck, which he carries low ; splendid shoulders, and great depth of girth; not over large barrel (which is somewhat straight) and somewhat light in his back ribs; short from hock and knee to the ground ; good bone, very lengthy and low ; and a remarkably racing -looking nag ; the off hind fetlock joint is' white.

MANCHESTER.—There hss been less depression in the market this week, and more business done, though the demand is still far from large. Prices are steadier, but the majority of purchases have been at low rates. The improvement appears to be the result of continued very favourable weather for the growing crops of all kinds, and the absence of any adverse news from the East. The last India accounts have induced a renewed, though not extensive demand for goods and yarn, which, with the increased firmness in the Liverpool cotton market, has arrested any further downward tendency in prices. More liberal purchases of yarn have also been made by manufacturers, no doubt partly attributable to the firmer attitude of the Liverpool cotton market. At Blackburn, on Wednesday, there was also decidedly more doing. ROCHDALE. There is a better feeling amongst buyers, and a greater disposition to purchase, but prices are much the same as those of last week.. The wool market remains inactive, and prices have undergone little • or no change. HUDDERSFIELD.—The market is still flat, but a slight improvement on last week has been experienced. There has been a slight improvement in the wool ware houses, but no sales of large amount effected. LEEDS.—A full average quantity of goods , have been delivered to order this week, and . the transactions out of the halls have been to a fair extent; in consequence the stocks are low and prices firm. Business has been dull in the home trade warehouses, hut there has been n..ore done by the fol'eign houses than of late, although much less than usual at this season. BRADFORD.—WooI: The country markets around the seat of consumption have opened with greater supplies than was -expected, and the farmers seemed inclined to make sales when 1;:ld can be obtained; hut, with present prospects, this is not long likely to be realised.—Yarns : The position of this branch of trade is not improved, and the only course that now remains is to circumscribe the production within the limits of the demand. The large houses generally are making but very limited time; large quantities of machinery are standing, with no disposition to resume work, till either an improvement take 'place in the price of yarns, or wool can be bought 'at such a price as to leave a margin of profit for the spinner. —Pieces: The demand fbr goods is not animated, and the merchants for the home trade only buy in limited quantity. The buyers for export are doing but little, and it is to be feared the business done will be both late and below the average of former years. • LEICESTER.—But little change in the amount of business for the home trade this week, and small orders to assort stocks, or for special purposes, characterise each day's despatches. The export for the United States is active, and a few further orders are expected. Wool and yarn remain firm in price. NOTTINGRAIL—The depression continues both in the lace and hosiery trades, in the former to a greater extent than the latter, but for hosiery goods also there is not the usual amount of orders that is looked for at this season. The manufacturers, therefore, of the various branches of this trade (hosiery) are wisely diminishing their production. In the lace trade this is not so easy. of accomplishment, as the large warps, that for economy are put on the warp beams, take a great length of time work ing off; consequently stocks of goods have accumulated during this flat season, upon which great sacrifices have been made, and it is for job lots of this sort the American buyers now in this market are chiefly looking. All kinds of yarn are difficult of sale. CORN LIVERPOOL, JUNE 2.—To-day's market exhibited more firmness ; the demand for wheat was far from active, but the currencies of Tuesday last were steadily supported. The inquiry for flour was actively renewed this morning ; consumers purchased to a good extent, and, some quantity being taken to hold over, the depression which took place in the interval from Tuesday was fully recovered, with comparatively little of choice quality offering for sale. Barley and beans dull, the former being Id. to 2d. per bushel lower. Oats and oatmeal were but in moderate request, and only the best descriptions made previous rates. Indian corn again sold pretty freely for Ireland, yellow American obtained 415., and several thousand quarters of secondary quality were taken by speculators. BRITISH.

Wheat is 3d to 4sl per bushel lower, and flour 2s per barrel and fully is per sack.. In the value of oats and oatmeal there is no material change. Other articles are nominally the same as on last market day. PRESTON, JUNE 3.—There is a. fair supply of wheat at our Corn Exchange, the deinand for which was very languid to day, and the last currency was with digiculty sustained. All descriptions from granary were neglected, and. nominally rather cheaper. Flour As iter pack and barrel lower. Oats moved slowly, though offered at an abatement of ld per bushel. Oatmeal in limited request, without change in value. WAKEFIELD, JuNE 2.—There was a good show of wheat at to-day's market, and fresh qualities were is. per quarter lower; there was little doing in other sorts, but sales were not pressed. Oats steady. Beans in limited demand, htit full prices asked. Barley and other articles unchanged. WISBECIf, JUNE 3.—We have a' smaller show of wheat to-day, and the firmness of Liverpool yesterday prCvented us from buying cheaper. Beans steady, oats nothing doing. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JITNE 3. —We had a small supply of wheat from the country this morning, which was cleared off quickly at fully the rates of this day week. A fair business was done in south country and foreign, at prices a shade below those of last Saturday. No change in the value of barley. Oat trade dull, and to make sales a reduction would have to be submitted to. Flour a slow sale and is per sack cheaper. - -- - CORK, Juxz 3.—Flour has a steady and full consump tion, and prime using qualities command late prices. The wheat market is very quiet, and holders,,don t - press for sales ; the limited business doing is very little under last week's rates. Indian corn firm. DUBLIN, Juror 2.—There was scarcely the appearance of business at our Corn Exchange to-day, and 60 trifling were the transactions that we can only report currencies nominally as on Tuesday. 1 White Wheat.43s Od to 47s Oct Oats, tawny-00s 0(1 to COs Oct Red do .. . 40s Od to 44s Od Rape s eed .... 00a 01 to COs 0 BarleyArind. 16a 6d to 19s Od 0atmea1...... 16s 6d to 18a Od Do., malting 21s Oct to 22s 6,1 Rakers' Flour.22s Od to 27s 0 Bere. 00a Od to 00s Od I Indian Corn.

A very large increase in number o f sheep and lambs, and a very dull trade at considerable decline in value. Good beef worth 9id to 7d per lb; mutton, °id to 7d per lb. Cattle, 1,887; sheep and lambs, 12,505. SALFORD, MAY 31.—Cows, 1,108 ; sheep and lambs, 7,340; calves, 200. The best heifer beef making fully ed ; strong useful steers and heifers, ad to 71d; cows, &c.. Cid to 7id; sheep, 7d to 8d ; lamb, 7d t o 9d ; ca l ves, 5d to ad. DUBLIN, Juice I.—The market was very scantily supplied with good beef, but rather fairly with other ar ticles. The high quotations for beef on Monday, in Liver pool, caused sellers to-day to ask exorbitant, and really to obtain very high prices, in some instances. 80s per cwt., sinking offal; the highest price for many •years. Beef rated from 58s to 655, and onwards to 78s per cwt. (fully) sinking offal. Mutton, 7.1 d per lb. (in wool); veal, Bi c i per lb.; lambs, 15s to 28s each ; pork, 50s to 51s 4d per cwt. PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, JUNE 2.—At our market there has been less doing in beef, but prices are well supported, and the stock is low. Pork has also been very quiet this week, present prices being paid with great reluctance. There is a fair inquiry for bacon, and there is evidently a large consumption going on, as the deliveries continue heavy. Shoulders and hams more inquired for. At 465. there has been a good business in lard, and there are now more buyers than sellers at this figure. No cheese here. Grease butter wanted. 'JITNE s.—The butter market continues dull and depressed, and prices have declined 2s to 4s since this day week. The dealers only buy to meet their immediate wants expecting lower rates. Carrick and Clonmel may be quoted at 90s tons. Kilkenny, Carlow and Wexford, 88s to 90; Limerick, 85s to 755; Cork, 31415, 82s to S•is, and 4ths, 765, per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland, from the 27th ult. to the 2d inst.,both inclusive, 12565 firkins, 101 kegs, 261 crocks, 259 barrels, 286 boxes butter, 111 bales bacon, 4 hhds. 2 tierces hams.

LIVERPOOL.—No arrivals from the north of Europe, during the week, and sales confined to retail from the yard, although transactions large for export. Pitch pine continues to arrive in small parcels, which meet a ready sale from the quay, at 2s 4d to 2s Old, according to size and quality. The stock of Quebec pine is very much reduced, and early arrivals will do well. Notwithstand ing the great difference in price in favour of deals, as com pared with timber in the log, and although the stock in dealers' hands is light, there is still an indisposition to operate largely, the heavy imports of February and March inducing buyers to hold off, under the impression that equally abundant supplies will still continue to be brought forward.
