THE Pa URDAY, JUNE 14, 1866 -----...--_ s,mentary Committees appointed this t about pu - ---- morable through all he extinguisher ind his unconstitutional and farcical committee, and had just recorded the arbitrary and inconsiderate conduct of Sir WILLuot CLAY'S on Mr. Low 1 to ( another of these con- ider the propriety of Dock Committee, w claves is et sanctioning certain passing tolls on shipping and merchandise levied by Denmark, on an open sea way While Mr. LowE's Committee Ibouring to prove that English Corpo- Liverpool more particularly, ich imposts, the it's Sound Dues rations, have no ra CH,SNCELLC ng with all their might a'ht to lev\ 3 Exon Danes have a right to levy a piratical tax on the ships and commerce of to prove that the THE NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. the world ! And urging that if the payment of these tolls is abolished, the Danish Crown must be compensated for its loss of revenue. The proceedings of these committees will proba bly be very narrowly watched, as they will furnish the public with a perfect illustration of the marvellous difference which Parliamentary tri bunals make between the taxes levied upon commerce at home and abroad. Mr. LOWE'S blue book will be a perfect history of mercantile oppres sion and corporate plundering, with a vehement repudiation of the doctrine of compensation, appendix. And the report of Sir CORNE WALL LEWIS' Committe will be a Con )ainful neces insupportable way of an ning the liamentary titles to estates they have had in hand for thirty, forty, and fifty years, and to answer all future applicants for their rights, by saying—that " the lands"—the Stubber estates, for example— ' were sold under the Chancery and Encumbered " Estates' Court Consolidation Act." This would be a delightfully ready way of getting out of the responsibilities of a neglected guardianship of minors, lunatics, devisees, and creditors, under wills. Attorneys would know how to avail themselves of the boon which a quick passage to such titles would confer on those whom the Court of Chancery allows to run up bills of cost to double and treble the value of the property brought before it. Equity, in its legal sense, has two sides, and it has a remarkable leaning towards the fraternity to which it belongs. Our Chancery Courts are, in fact, becoming a national pest, and abomination. Scarcely a day passes over our heads that some Chancery victim does not put a pamphlet or statement of their wrongs and suffering into the public's hands. Members of Parliament protest aloud in the most widely circulated journals against the continuance of the present system. The very mention of Chancery is offensive to the public's sense of justice and fair dealing with the property of deceased friends, parents, and their helpless offspring. To redeem Equity from universal odium, and to restore it to popular favour, you must change its name, curtail its functions, give it jury boxes, let the public eye and ear into it, tune its conscience, by penal statute, to morality, make it worthy of the age we live in, the country whose name it has disgraced, whose people it still afflicts, before you think of throwing one of the active agents in Ireland's deliverance into the vortex of legal corruption. Men who want to buy Irish lands have no desire to involve themselves in the purchase of estates which it might, at a subsequent date, be proved , were fraudulently brought before and kept in court; and, surely, Parliament is not going to throw open the gates of Chancery to the concoctors of such suits, by reversing the just law, which says—" a " fraudulent sale of property is a nullity." A court which has been dealing, probably, for twenty or thirty years, surreptitiously with estates, can never be suffered, after all, to make a Parliamentary title against their lawful owners. This would , indeed, be a change, both in the law and equity of these realms, but it would not he the reform which is required and expected ; and until the people of England are satisfied with the Chancery purifi cation which they seek, wo would have all Ireland oppose the union of their young giant amelio rater, with the crazy and vilely corrupt jade, called—" the Court of Chancery." THE EXECUTION WILLIAM PALMER. The execution of the convict William Palmer is to take place this morning at Eight o'clock, at the County Gaol, Stafford. We have made arrangements to receive the fullest particulars from our own Reporters, which we shall publish about Ten o'clock in an EXTRAORDINARY EDITION OF THE NORTHERN TIMES, THE COURT WINDSOR, June 12.—The Queen went to-day to Ascot races. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort, with the royal visitors and suite, left the castle in eleven carriages and four, at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock. The attendants, and also the out-riders, were in scarlet liveries. Her Majesty returned from the races at 25 minutes before six o'clock. The Queen gave a dinner to a numerous party in the evening. The banquet was served in St. George's Hall on the magnificent service of gold plate. The band of the Ist Life Guards attended during dinner. Her Majesty had afterwards an evening party. Her Majesty's private band was in attendance in the music gallery. aßichard Lavinge Swift, Esq., now Consul at Buffalo, has been appointed her Majesty's Consul at Riga. Mr. William Henry Coffin, of, and Mr. John Hodge, agent for, British Honduras, had an interview with Mr. Secretary Labouchere on Wednesday at the Colonial Office. THE INUNDATIONS IN FRANCE.—Mr. L. Pagel has handed to the Consul of France, the sum of 30s, the amount of the receipts of a lecture delivered in the Royal Institution, for the benefit of the unhappy sufferers by the recent inundations of France. DEATH OF' CAPTAIN THOMPSON, ONE OP THE HEROES OF KAns.—We exceedingly regret to announce that Capt. Thompson, one of the gallant defenders of Kars, died on Thursday morning at his mother's house in Gloucester street, having only arrived in England on Saturday last. At the banquet given at Hull on Saturday, in honour of the return to England of the deceased and of Colonel Lake, Captain Thompson excused himself from making more than 'a very brief acknowledgment of the compli ment offered him, on the ground that he was suffering severely from cold and illness. AN ANCIENT WATCH.—We, yesterday, saw an ancient silver watch, of immense dimensions—said to be 460 years old—the oldest, or one of the oldest watches in the world. Whether this be correct or not, the article is, beyond doubt, extremely old, as the case and works at once testify. It was for many years in the possession of the Imperial family of France, for whom it is said it was made. It is now the property of Dr. French, of this town, in whose family it has been for over 150 years. The whole machine is curious and quaint, and must be regarded as a strange pi ece o f mechanism. On the back of the old silvercase, is a cypher of the old French royal family. It Ivia only one hand, and, altogether, possesses great attraction for the antiquarian, as an extraordinary relic of bye-gone years. It will be exhibited at Mr. Mayers for a short time, as we have heard. CORONER'S INQUEST£l.—Yesterday the coroner held the following inquests :—On the body of an Irish emigrant, named Margaret Hyde, aged about 40 years. It appeared that the deceased had been booked at Cork for New York, by the agent of Messrs. Sabel and Cortis, and that she was on board the ship New York, in the river, when she died suddenly. It appeared, also, that she fretted very much after a child that she left behind her in Ireland. From a post mortem examination made of the body, by surgeon Kemp, it appeared that death was caused by disease of the heart, and the jury found a verdict accordingly. Th e deceased has a daughter married to a man named Griffin, who resides in 6, hose and Crown Court, Ebenezer -street, Leeds.—On the body of Gamer Roberts, aged 30 years, who kept a tailors shop in Paradise-Street. The deceased resided at 77. Duke-street, and, from the evidence, it appeared that he was given to exc.ssivo drinking. He died suddenly on Wednesday. From the evidence given, the jury found a verdict that death was accelerated by exvssive drinking.— On tho body of John Holden, aged 50 years, who was a porter at the Great Howard-street station of the London and North Western Railway. In this cane, the evidence went to show that deceased was much addicted to drinking, and death was accelerated by that cause. Verdict accord ingly. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY EVENING At the close of last and in the early part of the present week our market was dull and fiat, the steady maintenance, after the large supplies which have been already received, of the receipts of Cotton at the American shipping ports at a point equal to those of last year, deterring the trade from buying anything in excess of their immediate wants. Until yesterday buyers had therefore an advantage of 1-16 d to id per lb. in American descriptions pretty generally ; but this concession having induced some speculative buying, prices have again tightened, and to-day it has been diffi cult to operate at any definite decline from the rates current on Friday last—the quotations for fair Cotton have however been reduced id per lb., but in this quality full prices have not been readily obtainable for two or three weeks past. The sales of the week amount to 45,230 bales ; 33,380 of which have been taken by the trade, 8,560 for specula tion, and 3,290 for export. To-day's business is estimated at from 10,000 to 12,000 bales, 3,000 of which have been taken for speculation and export. The Committee's quotations to-day for fair Cotton are as follows, viz: —Bowed, 6i.1; Mobile, 6id ; and Orleans, 7id per lb. The Liverpool Share Market opened heavily this morning, and showed no signs of improve ment during the day, closing weak at the following quotations:—Aberdeen, 13 131.

Eaton's circular gives the following report of the tallow trade : Tallow is exceedingly dull, with only a retail demand for P.Y.C. at the quotations; small lots of good S. American brought 48s 6d per cwt. The London market for immediate delivery is a shade easier, 45s (id being the nearest value, but for the last three months 46s to 46s 3d per cwt is demanded. The half week delivery is 853 cks against 810 cks last year, with a stock of 17,185 cks against 47,740 in 1855. Tlie Liverpool Corn Market though not active, continues firm, with prices inclining upwards. The rumour of a loan by the French Govern ment is officially contradicted in to-day's Moniteur. Advices from the French Wool Market state that the recent heavy rains and bad weather have militated against the shearing season. At Lois sons the first produce of the clip has turned out to be in bad condition, caused by the excessive humidity having injured the staple of the wool. The quantity this year also will not prove so abundant as last year, especially of the finer sorts grown upon the hills. Oa the other hand, the intermediate kinds grown in the valleys will average 10 per cent. more than the produce of 1855. The prices, however, of the fine mountain wools are higher, and some lots have already been sold at 3f 20c per kilogramme, in grease, and Of 500 per do. washed. For inferior wools the merchants who have stocks on hand are asking from 2f 70c to 2f 80c, but the buyers are not inclined to give more than 21f. The quotations of best washed wools in the market are from 5f 20c to 5f 70c per kilo, and in grease from 2f 50c to 2f 80c. At Marseilles, on the 7th inst., 250 bales of Tunis wool was sold at 75f per quintal, and 83 bales, assorted and carded, from 165 f to 225 f. The importations included 275 bales Mazagar', 380 bales Oran, and 209 bales from Turin. The Moniteur of this day publishes the monthly returns of the Bank of France to Thursday, June 12.

The half-yearly dividend meeting of the London and Westminster Bank proprietary is to be held on the 16th of July, and the annual meeting of the Union Bank of London proprietors on the same day. An extraordinary general meeting of the United Homoeopathic and General Life Assurance Society is called for the 17th inst., to consider a recom mendation of the directors for the dissolution of the company, and for the transfer of its business to the English Provident Life Assurance and Tontine Annuity Society. A petition for the winding up of another assur ance society, viz., the Caxton Life Assurance, is to be heard before Vice-Chancellor Wood on the next petition day. The fourth call of £l. is to be paid on the class A or preference shares of the East Indian Iron Company by the Ist of July. A proposal is brought forward for the formation of a company under the Limited Liability Act for the purchase of the ship British Empire, built by Mr. Patterson, of Bristol, and which has just returned with a large cargo :of guano from the Pacific. The purchase money is about £21,500, and it is proposed to fit the vessel with an auxiliary screw. The capital is fixed at £40,000, with liberty to increase, in the event of the company's operations being extended. Constituted shares in the Great Luxembourg Company (141. paid) are to be ready for delivery on the 14th of July, in exchange for the pro visional certificates for the re issued shares. The Electric Power Light and Colour Company are inviting applications for a fresh issue of 101. shares. The directors propose to take steps for bringing the undertaking under the limited liability law, as soon as the bill now before parlia ment shall have passed. Shares of the Belgian Eastern Junction Railway, upon which the last call of ten saillings shall not have been paid by the 4th of July, are to be for feited. The position of the market for American secu rities, is thus noticed by Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co. :—"There has been, during the past week, more activity in the market for American securities ; some large amounts of State stocks have been offered for sale, and have been freely purchased at our quotations."

IMPERIAL PARLIAM ENT HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY Their Lordships met at five o'clock Lord DON umouE enquired as to the intention of the Government with regard to the disembodiment of the Irish militia, and expressed a hope that it would not take place till harvest operations commenced. Of the 17,600 men composing the Irish militia, it was probable that, if disembodied at the present time, 10,000 would go over to America ; and considering the present state of our relations with the United States, much danger was to be apprehended from such a pro- ceeding. Lord PANMURE said it was intended to take the same measures in regard to the disembodiment of the Irish militia as to that of the English and Scotch militia. Portions of the English and Botch militia had been disembodied, but the Irish militia force was yet entire. The English militia men had expressed their readiness to return to their ordinary avocations, and the services of the disembodied portion had been speedily absorbed in the labour market. He had no apprehension that the Irish militia, when disembodied, would go in such large numbers as the noble lord had stated to America, and turn the discipline which they had gained here against their own country. In reply to the Earl of DERBY, The Earl of CLARENDON made an announcement in reference to our relations with America, in precisely similar terms to that given in the House of Commons by Lord Palmerston in reply to Mr. Disraeli. On the motion of Lord PANMURE, the Police Counties Boroughs Bill was read a second time. The House rose at ten minutes past six o'clock. PRICE ONE HALF-PENNY. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. The Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. In reply to Mr. DANIEL O'CONNELL, The CHANCELLOR of the ExcituunEß, while acknow ledging the necessity for further legislation on the subject of Savings' Banks, would not promise to bring in a measure on the subject this session, as there would be little chance of its passing. In reply to Mr. BUCKLEY, Sir CHARLES Wool) denied that the services of the Royal Marines had been overlooked, and stated that eighteen had received brevet rank—ten for service in the Black Sea, and eight for service in the Baltic. The number of brevet rank was not, of course, as large in the navy as in the army, as in the late war the latter service had offered more opportunity for men to distin guish themselves than the former. Mr. DISRAELI wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Government, whether information had yet reached him that diplomatic relations between her Majesty's Minister at Washington and the Government, to which he was accredited, had ceased ; and, if the statements were true, whether he would then be prepared to state to the House what course the Government intended to pursue under the circumstances. Lord PALMERSTON said, the noble lord at the head of the foreign department, late in the evening of Wednesday, had received from Mr. Dallas two despatches, addressed to Mr. Dallas by Mr. Marcy, the S'eeret:ry of State for Foreign Affairs in the United States, one on the subject of the recruiting question, and the other on the subject of Central American affairs. The question of the right hon. gentleman referred to the first, and to that, therefore, he should confine his obser vations. It appeared from that despatch, that the United States Government were perfectly satisfied with the explanations offered by Lord Clarendon in regard to the course pu'sued by her Majesty's Governmenton the sub ject ; but, whilst they deemed those explanations as perfectly settling the question as far as the govenment was concerned, they nevertheless, for reasons which they alleged, and from documents (of which they sent copies), did not express themselves satisfied with the conduct of her Majesty's ministers at Washington, Cincinnatti, Philadelphia, and New York, and expressed to Mr. Dallas their intention of delivering to Mr. Crampton his passports, and of removing the exequator from the three Consuls, the House would feel that until the Govern ment bad considered the matter he could not give an answer as to what course it was their intention to pursue. Mr. GIBSON asked a questio❑ as to the nature of the despatch respecting the Central American affairs. Lord PALMERSTON said it would require to enter into long details to give explanations on the subject, but the main point of the s' ateuaent was, that the question might be amicably settled by negociation between the two governments. Mr. H. BAILLIE accepted an offer made by Lord Palmerston, that his motion relating to foreign enlist ment should come on on Thursday next. Lord J. RUSSELL referred to the anxiety felt in the country, with regard to the American question, which he believed was increased by the tone taken by the public press on the subject, and gave notice that on Monday he should enquire of the Government as to the nature of the reply which it was their intention to make to the despatches from the United States. After some further conversation, the House went into Committee of Supply. Two votes of £4,500, and £3,500, for a road across St. James's Park, Westminster, were agreed to, after some dis cussion. The navy estimate 3 were then introduced by Sir CHAS. WOOD, who took the opportunity of reiterating the assur ance that an efficient navy should be maintained. A vote of 56,000 men, for nine months, was agreed to. Some other votes were agreed to, includinc , £601,000 to complete the sum for wages of seamen and marines; £167,000 to com plete the sum for victualling for the navy ; £5OO to com plete the sum for stores; £40,000 for the finishing of the dockyards ; and £4,977,000 for transport service. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, a vote of credit of £2,000,000 was agreed to. The House then resumed. The motion for going into committee on the Parochial Schools (Scotland) Bill, was opposed by Mr. CUMMING BRUCE, but was carried on a division by 126 to 90 — Majority 36. The house then went into committee, but the Chairman was immediately ordered to report progress. The Oxford University Bill was read a third time and passed. The other business was disposed of, and the House ad joured at two o'clock. A BISHOP IN DISTRESS.—Mr. George John Cayley tells a story of a bishop in distress. A Mesopotamian Koord named Mar Athanasius Stephauos was sent by the Patriarch of Antioch to be Archbishop over the Syrian churches of Malabar. On his arrival at Bombay the Governor, in council, examined his documents, recognised his position, and granted him a passport to Cochin. Here his difficulties began. The Rajah of Travancore was opposed to his entering that territory, and General Cullen, the British Resident, declined to furnish him with a passport to proceed to the interior of his diocese. He appealed to the govern ment of Madras, and was referred by them back again to the Resident of Travancore. His various appeals to the British government have been drifting him about from misadventure to misadventure for the space of six years. Tie is now in England, and has indited in Arabic an epistle general to the Christians of Great Britain. He complains that he was " denied" by the Resident of Travancore, who said to him—" Thy preaching of the Gospel, and thy sitting down to dwell in this land, the same are in the hand of the Rajah of Travancore. And for this cause I journeyed to Madras, and made known my situation to the chief of the government; and he answered me, Because I have received orders from the Court of Directors it may not intermeddle in the like of this thy business, since I relates to the Resident of Travancore.' And thereafter there is no count of times I wrote to the Resident, and he answered me as before. And when the Syrian con gregations had establis=hed me in one of the churches the servants of the Rajah came persecuting me, and say ing, Inasmuch as thou bast not a passport from the Resident, - thee out hence ;' and I remaineded in this ness and affliction more than five years for of the Gospel sake." He came to England ~ea to the Court of Directors, but (says the chlritably) "The Court did not incline nor .aten to that, because of the t, ilitee money of the Indian Rjah. Th e y despised the Word of God, and his prophets and apostles , who testif y of justice and con science. And also, whence hereafter shall we hear of the truth and righteousness of the government of England ? For I presented the rescript of the patriarch of Antioch in the name of the greatness of the Queen, end I represented the whole of my circumstances to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and he answered me that they referred my petition to the India Board of Control. And there also I have no word of satisfaction from them these many months, imped ing mu here.", tate of al,jc.c servative homily, del sities of Denmark, th oss the abolit ion of the Sound Dues would be to ad recommending the British Par- her people liament to sanction the capitalisation lime as a On this means of c mpensating the Danes foreign dues question the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER will hear anybody and everybody. There the national grievances and injustice and hardship in individual cases will be told and 3(1 to both branches of the fairly chronic But what will the Committee recom mend in this case? Remember Denmark, and not Liverpool, is complained of, and Parliament will adhere to the sound principle followed for centu ries, and will recommend compensation ! legislature If the Danes lose their Sound Dues, their loss of income will assuredly be made up to them by capitalisation. Parliament will vote the amount of money required to compensate them as freely as the Committee will call upon them to do so. But how will it be with Liverpool, when her lawful reve nues have been reported upon by Mr. LOWE and his Committee The PALMERSTON Cabinet would not do an " injustice" to Denmark for the world. The Imperial Senate would not tolerate a breach of faith with a foreign power. We shall be told, in very plain language, that if wo ask such con cessions to trade as the abolition of fiscal sources of income, we must be ready to pay for them— other people must not be losers by our wants. We shall hear all this and a great deal more about the rights of the Danes to their dues on ships and goods. It would be as com plete an act of suicide, to attempt to get between Parliament and its opinion in favour of compen sation in this instance, as it would be to place one's self in the way of an infuriate bull, or an express railway train. Whether the Ratelpayers of Liverpool will have cause to regret that they are not Danes, remains to be seen, when Mr. LOWE'S Com mittee, and the Gevcrnment of which he is a member, begin to treat of the corporate income of this Borough. The report of the Passing Tolls and Towns Dues Committee, and thejmeasures the PAL3rEnsToN Cabinet will recommend to Parliament, on the strength of that report, will show us whether the dues, of the cor porate subjects of England, are to be dealt with in the same spirit. The Sound Dues Committee invite the Chambers of Commerce throughout the kingdom to appear before them and give evidence ; and while the Liverpool Chamber will doubtless take a leading part in the investi gation, the public will be most curious to see what the Manchester Tolls and Dues Abolitionists will have to say for themselves on a question of Danish taxes on trade and shipping. They treat with scorn the bare whisper of compensation in our case, and we feel much anxiety so see what shape and complexion their consistency will assume with regard to f gn Sound Dues IF we may venture on making a comparison, which is always more or less invidious, we would say that our trade with Ireland is as valuable as our commerce with any other country in the world. The amount we import annually from the Sister Isle may be less than the value of commodities received from other States—but we obtain from the Irish soil a profuse supply of those necessaries which other countries, owing to distance, and a cannot send us. She has been variety of causes, deprived of her monopoly in corn and provisions, and time proves the wisdom of the change. The freedom of commerce has led to the emancipation of Irish industry, and the "Repeal of the Union" of her people with social misery and heart-sickening want. Without looking too closely into causes, it will be sufficient to say, that the effect of every material change which has taken place in her con dition, has had a tendency towards the ameliora tion of the peasant class. There is much yet to be done to bring the masses of her population up to a healthy standard of civi lised life, but since all the expedients which have been tried within the last few years, appear to be working well--why not let well enough alone ? Ireland's peace and prosperity would be England's greatest moral strength and social blessing, and where the interests of the two nations are identical, and incalculable, we should see that the progress the Irish people are making is not interrupted by hasty or unwise legislation. We are induced to direct attention to the vast stake we have in the welfare of Ireland by the proposal recently made in Parliament to abolish the Encumbered Estates' Court, and transfer its powers to that sink of all legal pollution—the Irish Court of Chancery. We were never ardent admirers of that new and much lauded tribunal which some are so desirous to see done away with., It was founded on promises and hopes which few can say have been realised to anything like the extent anticipated. The promise was, it would pay off iucumbrances with electric despatch, and throw open the land to its frieze-coated sons. The hope was no less flattering. Rack-rents were to be un- known. A large influx of English and Scotch capital ists was to follow the exodus of the old owners and occupiers. Partially, both the promise and expec tation have been fulfilled ; but only partially, and on terms, which, in our sincere solicitude for the solid welfare of Ireland, we fear will counter balance all apparent gains. It is well known that previous to the sale of land, a valuation was made by the Encumbered Estates' Court, and that in nearly all cases a higher value was given to the land by the agents of that Court, than the govern ment valuation, which was made in the rampant rack-rent days. It may then be found that the purchasers, be they Irishmen or Englishmen, paid more than the money value of their purchases That it will ultimately prove so, we firmly believe. Yet this is only our individual opinion. The exp9riment is one of great moment, and since it has not retarded, but on the contrary, appears to have favoured the general improvement of Ireland, we see no sufficient reason to justify the Government's or Parliament's interfering with it, except to infuse new life into the veins of the infant Court. To throw it into the cesspool of Irish equity would be most diabolical infanticide. Why, giving the Court of Chancery power to make Parliamentary titles to estates, would open up a field for property swindling and fraud such as few can conceive. It would be monstrously convenient, no doubt, for some of the Masters to get certain notorious cases out of their offices by making Par- ... , -- - FORE I GN INTELLIGENCE' REMONSTRANCES OF ENGLAND AND FRANC - Z.l WITH THE KING OF NAPLES. tte „ntailii A. letter from Paris to the Augsburg Gaz,e,,. the following :—authentic I am in a measure able to inform on of the ~ i ta contents of the note addressed by France and ErPl a its to the Neapolitan governmant.
