The Liverpool Cotton Market to-day, and throughout the week, has been very dull. The selection, afforded by our present heavy stock, so greatly exceeds the daily requirements of the trade and exporters, that sellers, individually, have found great difficulty in making sales, and to induce purchases have submitted to very low rates, causing the market to rule very irregular, and the quotations to be almost nominal. Brazil and Egyptian dull of sale. Surat without change. The weekly sales are 47,610 bales, of which 770 are on speculation and 8,280 bales for export.

For Calcutta some ships have been fixed for coals and salt at 355, and on the round out and home £5 is offering ; 35s out to Bombay, and 45s home, are the rates obtainable for any sized vessel.

In the Liverpool Share Market to-day, and during the past week, there has not been much business done, and prices have shown very little change ; but the traffic returns have been enor mously large, and it is very generally felt that railway property is now in a better position than it has been in for a long time past.

No gold transactions of any importance took place at the Bank to-day.—Times. A very dull day in the "Stock Exchange ; scarcely any business done. The funds were not very strong, but yesterday's prices were supported. In the other markets, owing to the langour of business, prices, in most in stances, were nominally unaltered. There was a moderate demand for money in commercial: channels. Although the rate for the best bills was only a fraction below that of the Bank, the applications to that establish ment continues limited.—. Daily News.

Floating cargoes, off the coast, were held so high that business was checked; but large transactions were reported on passage of Marianople and Berdianska, Ghirkas and Sandonirks. Flour was dearer : Norfolks up to 40s to 41s 6d. Indian Corn was held for late rates; but buyers wanted a little concession. Galatz and Ibrail Barley was sought after, and there was demand enough to clear the coast, at about 6d reduction, which importers resisted. Rye, Malt, Peas, and Beans were steady, at the previous quotations. Oats were only taken sparingly, and the turn was - somewhat in favour of buyers.

General Latazia, who was the bearer of orders to General Lanza not to treat with Garibaldi, but rather to destroy the town, left again for Naples on Sunday. It is believed his mission is to make representations caused by numerous desertions, and the refusal of the troops to fight. An advice from Messina, dated the 2nd, says— " We are expecting every moment news of the fail of Palermo. Yesterday, a royal steamer came THE DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1860. .in from : Catania, bringing the remnant of the garrison of that place, whence we conclude that all was up with the royalists there. Here all is perfectly quiet, but commerce is not thought of. Exchange 60." The ,Cologne Gazette asserts that the Queen mother of Naples has been formally requested by her son to withdraw from Naples. The Paris correspondent of the Globe says that twelve transports had left Naples in tow of steamers, to embary the garrison, late of Palermo. It is asserted that 15,000 guns have been sent to Italy from England since the setting out of the expedition of Garibaldi. The price paid for them was 18s. each. It is believed that hostilities will not be re sumed at Palermo. The authorities are engaged in devising the means for preventing the further effusion of blood. It was on the 30th of May that General Garibaldi went on board the Han nibal, British man-of-war, to meet the Neapolitan delegate, charged to demand an armistice. The Neapolitan conditions were—first, the retention of their respective positions by both parties; second, liberty to attend to the wounded, and to remove them on board the fleet ; third, permission to supply provisions to the hospital for the poor ; fourth, the municipality should address to the Royal Commissioner a requisition for the concession of such reforms and institutions as might be necessary for the country. The first points were consented to by Garibaldi without difficulty, but he peremptorily rejected the fourth, and the conference was broken up. Nevertheless, hostilities did not recommence on the following day, and the armistice, which was fixed to ter minate to-day, was still under discussion. The Times says, in a leader, the armistice between the two hostile parties has already expired, and we may expect to have at any hour news that the fighting has been brought to an end by the capitulation of the army. The recent embarkation of 800 Chasseurs of the Alps at Genoa, to reinforce Garibaldi, was effected without any possibility of the Govern ment offering resistance, as it was known that if troops had been marched down to stop the ship ment of these auxiliaries, the soldiers would have commenced going on board themselves. The Paris correspondent of the Herald quotes private letters from Turin, which state that the Sardinian Government will have to support Gari baldi, and therefore go to war with Naples, or it will have to put down an insurrection at home, so excited is public opinion becoming in Piedmont. It was reported, as a kind of half measure, that Cavour was about to send a Commissioner Extra ordinary to Sicily. Orders had been given to prepare for sea all the men-of-war at Genoa and Spezzia. It is stated that the Emperor of Russia has sent a telegraphic message to the Emperor and Empress of France, expressing his gratitude for the attention and deference shown by their Majesties to the Dowager Empress of Russia. It is also stated that the Dowager Empress was very anxious to accept an invitation made by the Emperor and Empress of the French to visit Fon tainebleau, but that her Majesty's physicians ob jected, on the ground that it might prove too great an exertion for her Majesty's health. These facts are significant. Tha Nord states that after his return from the Eastern provinces, the Prince Regent of Prussia will proceed to the Rhenish frontiers. It is affirmed that his Royal Highness will have an interview with the Emperor Napoleon. It is believed that overtures for a treaty between France and the Zollverein have been at least unofficially rejected by the Prussian Cabinet. The publication of the petition from the manufacturers of Rouen to the Emperor , begging for the admission of spun cotton, if not duty free, at all events with no higher an imposition than five per cent., has been hailed as the fir Sit neknowledgement of error on the part of the French protectionists. The Austrian Government, with a view of reorganising the representative system of the provinces, is about to extend the authority of the Central Congregation in Venetia. Deliberative votes will be granted to it. On a large num ber of administrative questions the decisions of this congregation will become law upon being signed by the President. It will in future decide on judicial affairs without further appeal. The only reservation made in favour of the Central Administration is the approbation of proposed expenditure and revision - of provincial treasury accounts. In order to re-establish the national character of the municipal system in Venetia, all franchises and immunities granted by patent of 26th April, 1815, are to be confirmed. It is reported by the Journal de Havre in reference to the treaty with Abyssinia, which was regarded as an indication of hostility to England, that the Emperor has adjourned the ratification. A letter from Rome, in the Paris Union, says : The health of Cardinal Wiseman inspires great uneasiness. Successive relapses leave little hope of his recovery. The position of the Ministry is considered embarrassing, and the usual rumours of probable resignations and secessions were circulated yes terday. The Herald, referring to the late divi sion, says, a very little exertion on the part of the Conservatives would have sealed the fate of the bill for the present session. The Times endeavours to show that the present struggle on the Reform Bill is only as to which party will bear the odium of its death. The Opposition would not for the world put it to death—the Govern ment would not, under any consideration, give reason to suspect their zeal and sincerity in that great cause of Parliamentary Reform; yet, as the two Houses will not pass a Reform Bill this session; this great public hypocrisy must soon cease. The Londonderry. Election Committee has unanimously decided that Mr. M'Cormick was duly elected. Another fictitious bill of exchange has just been presented at a London bank. It is dated Stettin, May 22nd, 1860, for £450, drawn by C. Maurice on Samuel Montage, accepted payable at the Union Bank of London, and endorsed S. Cohen. The acceptor's name, Samuel Montage, London, is made to appear like that of Samuel and Montagu, a respectable and well-known firm. Mr. Jacob Reynolds, a leading man at Lloyd's, has accepted the appointment of underwriter to the Thames and Mersey Marine Insurance Com pany, at Liverpool. The bust of Sir John Pakington, G.C.8., by Marochetti, was placed in the museum of Haslar Hospital on Tuesday, by a deputation from the medical officers of the royal navy, in commemora tion of the services rendered to the medical depart ment by the right honourable baronet while First Lord of the Admiralty. The Queen went on Thursday to honour Ascot Races with her presence. The royal procession left the Castle in eleven carriages, at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock. Numerous outriders, in scarlet livery, attended the royal cortege. The Queen returned to the Castle at twenty-five minutes past five. Rain fell with little inter , mission throughout the day. On Wednesday evening last a conference of vari ous of the leading cattle-salesmen and dealers con nected with Lancashire and Cheshire took place, when the question of providing a sufficient and economical supply of butchers' meat for the market was takenup. It was stated that the present supply of fat cattle was being obtained from Hamburgh, Rotterdam, and Oporto ; that the freight of bringing • . the cattle to Southampton, thence to London, and thence to Liverpool and the various provin cial markets, necessarily incurred a deal of ex pense; that, with the view of decreasing the extra costs consequent on the cattle passing through so many hands, a trustworthy person should be engaged to purchase and forward the cattle from the Continental ports ; and that inquiries should be made to carry out the shipment of cattle, sheep, &c., direct to Liverpool, if practicable. "WHO STOPS THE WAY 9" THAT there has been an unreasonable amount of delay in the progress of the Reform Bill is a fact admitted on all hands. There is no question about it. The leaders of parties on both sides of the House admit it and denounce it ; the admission, and its accompanying denunciation, are caught up and re-echoed from every corner. Every form and figure of speech have been employed to give prominence and clearness to the indisputable truth that the Reform Bill of 1860 has been already all but strangled through the inexcusable and culpable delay to which it has been subjected. There is a rare amount of unanimity among the Commons about this la mentable fact. Mr. BRIGHT and Mr. DISRAELI shake their heads over it. Lord JOHN RUSSELL and his hydra-headed opponents are agreed on it. Lord PALMERSTON has made the exposition and illustration of it the sum and substance of his maiden Reform speech this session. There has been delay, and, of course, somebody is to blame. Here parties fall by the ears, and mutually accuse each other of having " done it," with a warmth of feeling that sometimes threatens to assume the appearance of personal bitterness and animosity. If a flat denial would suffice to settle the matter, it must have been the evil work of that well-known author of all juvenile peccadillos—nobody ; for everybody dis claims even the thought of such a thing. On the contrary, all parties avow that their greatest anxiety has been to forward matters as much as possible, and nothing has caused everybody so much distress of mind as to have observed that everybody else has been deliberately and cunningly devising obstructions and delays innumerable. More than all this, every body is most anxious that, notwithstanding all that has passed, byegones should be bye gones—what has been done amiss must be amended, and the precious little Bill must, despite every disadvantage, be licked into shape and car ried through, without further unnecessary waste of time ! Has not the principle of the measure been agreed to without opposition, and are not all parties clamorous that the adjustment of the de tails should be instantly effected ? Most assuredly. Strange to say, however, progress seems impos sible. Confusion seems to paralyse the promoters, and, after seeming to have used their utmost efforts, we find them sticking in the mud—much about where they were at the outset, or, if any thing, deeper and more inextricably embarrassed. How is this? There must be an explanation somewhere ; and, were our Whig legislators a little more candid, it would not require to be sought for. There are a few facts patent to all, which may tend to throw light upon the real nature of the difficulty, and discover the responsible authors of the present Parliamentary dead lock. In the first place, how does it happen that the motion for going into committee on the Reform Bill did not come on - for the consideration of the House until so late a period of the session as Monday last ? Lord JOHN RUSSELL alone can answer truly. Have not the Government the management of the business of the House; and is it not the fact thst they have generally had at disposal all the days which are usually devoted to private members of the House ? Was not Monday, the fourth day of June, the earliest date they could be persuaded to fix for that motion ? It was so undoubtedly. But to go back to the second reading. Has it not been the constant outcry of the Ministerial party that it was not opposed ? Can it be said, then, that that was a cause of delay. Was the length of the discussion on the second reading unreasonable ? It was carried over some five or six nights, and certainly Ministers must be hard driven for a justification if they pretend to say that the importance of the theme did not require that amount of considera tion. But even granting that less time might have sufficed, and that there was an unnecessary delay on that occasion, on whom does the odium of obstructiveness lie ? It has been stated, and we believe correctly, that in numbers, and also in length —in quantity, if not in quality—the majority of the speeches then delivered to the House were made by sup porters of the Government. We have all fresh upon our memories the character of that debate ; and it seems impossible to resist the general impression that, in the course of the discus sion, while the Conservatives confined themselves to the statement of some great Constitutional objections to the course adopted by the authors of the Bill, the members of the " great Liberal party " distinguished themselves by a display of minute criticism, and vigilant captiousness with details, which betrayed something very like a feeling of terrible consternation. Who, then, were the obstructives at that stage ? Let us cast our retrospection another step backwards—to the commencement of the session. Ministers had taken office solely for the purpose of introducing a Whig Reform Bill, and Parliament assembled earlier than usual to give ample room and verge enough for deliberate legislation on the subject. For a whole fortnight nothing was done ; the Bill was not introduced. Who was then to blame? Under those circumstances, and in the face of these notorious facts, it requires no ordinary amount of effrontery to assert that the all but fatal delay that has arisen is attributable to the conduct of the Opposition. It is further asserted, however, that although the Conservatives are not responsible for these delays, they have otherwise taken means to protract dis cussion and provoke opposition. But " Facts are chiels that winna ding." What are the facts ? Who are the authors of the amendments to the motion that the House go into committee ? Who have suggested amend ments by which this measure might be ar rested and ultimately defeated ? Who proposed to refer the Bill to a select committee ? Who pro posed the amendment which at present obstructs progress, and on the discussion of which the House at present stands adjourned? Did not the author of that very amendment boast that lie had supported the present Whig Minister in almost every division for many years ? The truth is demonstrable that the friends and sup porters of Ministers have alone played the part of obstructives, and on their unfortunate heads alone should be poured out the Ministe'rial denun ciations of factious and unconstitutional opposition. The law of the last legislature to punish the sending of false notices of marriages, births, and deaths to news papers is now in force. It provides that "any person who shall wilfully send to the publishers of any news paper, for the purpose of publication, a fraudulent notice of the birth of a child, or of the marriage of any parties, or of the death of any person, shall, upon con viction thereof, be punished by a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars." THE WEIGHT OF BLOWS.—Some of th• English papers profess to doubt whether Heenan is a liard hitter. There is a story current that at the Boston Gymnasium, where they have a contrivance to test the weight of a blow, the best pupil struck 70 pounds. After a few days' practice the teacher was able to strike 130 pounds. Heenan put himself in training there for a short period, and the weight of his blow was 620 pounds—nearly a third of a ton! Can anybody tell how hard a horse kicks? FRANCE. The French Government have" agreed to permit the temporary importatiOn, free of duty, at the three ports of Boulogne, Calais, and Havre, of samples of British produce and manufacture transmitted to Paris in connection with the inquiries now pending for assessing the new French tariff, in pursuance of the provisions of the recent Treaty of Commerce. FRENCH FUNDS. PARIS, June 8. 3.30 P.M.—The Bourse has been very dull. Rentes closed at 68f. 20c., or 10e. lower than yesterday. , , . LATEST NEWS. (BY BRITISH.AND IRISH NIAGNIMIC TELEGRAPH.) SICILY. GENOA, June 8. News from Sicily state that a capitulation has been concluded between General Lanza and Garibaldi. The conditions are not known. PARIS, June 8. The King of Naples has not only addressed the Western Powers, but he has also invited the simultaneous intervention of the five Great Powers, in order to obtain from their collective actions the guarantee for the integrity of his States. King Francis 11. has more particularly claimed the mediation of the Emperor of the French for the pacification of Sicily, and has promised to proclaim immediately the Constitution of 1852. His Majesty has also requested the' five great Powers to employ their authority and their influ ence to restrain Piedmont from favouring 'any revolutionary movement on the mainland, of the King of Naples. As regards the collective actions of the great Powers, the English Cabinet was the first to reply that it did not intend to interfere in any other way in the conflict between the Neapo litan troops and Garibaldi than to stop, if possible, the effusion of blood, without siding with either party. After this answer, given by England, the other great Powers likewise, in more or' less positive terms, declined any direct intervention. Napoleon 111. was at Lyons when M. Thou venel transmitted to his Majesty, by telegram, the demand for mediation by the King of Naples ; and his Majesty replied immediately that a me diation was only possible between two Powers; and unless officially recognised (the Sicilian Revo lution), no Power could place itself mediator between the same and the King of Naples. Lord John Russell had, however, promised to recommend to Piedmont not to foment any dis affections in the Neapolitan possessions in the Peninsula. Except Austria, who does not main tain diplomatic relations with Piedmont, the other great powers will act in a similar manner. THE AGAPEMONE. The arguments in the A gapemone case were concluded yesterday evening. Judgment reserved. ROYAL COMMISSIONS ON HER MAJESTY'S DOCKYARDS. The Gazette notifies the appointment of a royal commission to inquire into the control and ma nagement of her Majesty's dockyards, the pur chase of materials and stores, the cost of building and repairing, altering, fitting, and refitting the ships of her Majesty's 'navy, and the best mode of keeping the accounts ; and also to inquire into the expenditure of former years connected with the above subjects, to ascer tain whether the system of ship building has been efficient, and whether the expenditure on the alteration of the ships of her Majesty's navy, either in converting them from sailing to steam ships, or on other alterations, during the progress of their construction, had been judiciously applied. The Commissioners are J. L. Ricardo, Esq., the Earl of Gifford, Sir H. P. Willoughby, Captain R. S. Robinson, R.N., and R. Dalglish, Esq. The military arrangements consequent on the death of Lord Strafford are expected to be as follows :—The Duke of Cambridge to the Cold stream Guards, Viscount Gough to the Fusilier Guards, General Earl Beauchamp to the Royal Horse Guards, Major-General Beckwith from un attached to 10th Hussars. It is said that Lieut.- General Dennis Daly is to be Colonel of the 78th Regiment, vice Chalmers. A notice from the Board of Trade intimates that the Dominican Government have issued a a decree re-opening to foreign trade generally the port of Romana, from the Ist of January next. IMPERIAL PARLIAIIIENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YESTERDAY. Lord BROLIOHAM asked if any information had been received by the Government respecting the alleged bonebardment of Palermo, trusting there was no foundation for the report of so unexampled an atrocity. With all his respect for non intervention, he mu3t express his hopes for the speedy libera tion of Sicily from the tyranny to which she had been subjected. Earl GRANVILLE said that information had been received but he could not state it without consideration. Lord STANHOPE called attention to - the mode of carrying on our diplomatic relations with Rome, which since the cessation of the legation at Florence were managed by an attache of the legation at Naples. This gave rise to much confusion, and he thought the time had come when we might establish direct diplomacy with the Roman government. Lord WODEHOLISE sa.d that the matter was only one of time. The Government, if requested by the Pope, -would be quite willing to send a Minister to Rome ; but at present, if they were themselves to make the request, they would probably be refused. The present system worked well, and caused no inconvenience. ------• ---------- The License Bill passed through committee after some dis , cussion. -------- Their lordships adjourned at ten minutes to eight. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-YESTERDAY. The Speaker took the chair at, four o'clock. Mr. MELLOR brought up the report of the Clare County election committee, declaring ➢fr. Calcutt duly elected. Mr. S. FITZGERALD brought up the report of the Derry election committee, declaring Mr. M'Cormick duly elected. Ia reply to Mr. Hunt, , Sir G. C. LEveis said the Corrupt Practices Prevention Act would expire on the 15th August. He should, if time per mitted, bring in a bill fourided on the report of the committee. Mr. VA NSIT rART asked the Secretary of State for India whether the names of those civilians on the Bengal establish meat, who were killed In action, murdered, or died from wounds and exposure during the late mutiny between the 11th day of May and 19th day of November, 1857, have at any time been brought ander the notice of the Government, and whether he intends to do honour to their memory by the erection of a monument. Mr. SoMES asked the Secretary of State for India whether an American ship has been taken up by Government for the conveyance of stores from Calcutta to ehina, whether eligible British ships were tendered for the same service; and if so, whether he will state the reasons which induced the Govern ment to make such selection. Mr. KENNARD asked the• Secretary of State for India whether it is the intention of her Majesty's Government to reward the services of those officers of the Bengal native army whose regiments remained faithful to the British Government during the late mutiny. Sir C. Woon replied that it was intended to erect a memorial to the Bengal civilians who perished during the late mutiny, and he thought that Haileybury would be the fittest place. He had no information as to the American vessel. The third question was founded on a misapprehension of what appeared in the newspapers. Governer - lent had already rewarded those officers who bad been recommended by the Indian authorities, without any reference to the conduct of their regiments. Sir F. SMITH asked the Secretary of State for War when he intends to lay upon the table of the House the report of the Commissioners on the National Defences; and whether it is the intention of the Government to• present to Parliament, in the present session, an estimate for carrying into effect any of the recommendations of the Commissioners. Lord PALMERSTON said that the report of the Commissioners would before long be laid upon the table, and he would take that opportunity of stating the intention of the Government on the subject. . . Mr. WHITESIDE asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland for au explanation respecting recent arrests for conspiracy in Dun dalk, and in relation to the discharge of certain other parties charged with or convicted of the like offence . in Ireland. it bad been stated that eleven. men had. been arrested for what had been called a Ribbon Conspiracy ; and that persons prose cuted by the late Government ha d been pardoned by the present. tion not to whether the Government adhere to their deteriainarevadiug Mr. HENNESSY asked the Chief Secretary for in take asy special steps to remedy the destitutto dnesPtitation bad Erris and other parts of Ireland.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. AMBRICA.—The British and North American royal mail steamship Asia, Captain Lott, will sail from the river this day for 'New York. The letter-box at the Post-office will finally close at ten o'clock, a.m., without late fees. Letters will be forwarded via Queenstown, if posted before half-past nine o'clock, p.m. The steam tender Satellite will leave the Landing-stage, opposite the Baths, George's Pier, with the passengers for the Asia. THE FIRE IN DENISON-STREET.---The firemen were engaged during the whole of Thursday night in throw ing water on the smouldering cotton, and last night and this morning four jets were still being directed on the burning mass. No accident of any note occurred ; but, doubtless, many of the fire-brigade have felt the effects of the great exertions they made on that occasion. We may add that only one opinion exists as to the energetic and daring manner in which they endeavoured to over come the destructive element. CORONER'S INQUESTS.—The Borough Coroner held the following inquests :—Ou the body of Thomas Maloy, 6 years old, the son of a labourer, living in No. 4 Court, Brick-street. The lad (along with others) was playing about a block-yard in Greenland-street, when, by acci dent, a piece of wood tell on him, and injured him so much that he died in the Southern Hospital. There was no blame attached to any one; and the jury found a verdict of " Accidental death."—On the body of Chas. Lynch, 48 years of age, a labourer, residing in Midge hall-street. His wife found him dead in bed at four o'clock on Thursday morning. He went to bed the previous night in good health. Surgeon Ayrton, who made a post snortein examination of the body, said death was caused by sanguinous apoplexy, and the jury found 'accordingly. ACClDENT.—Yesterday afternoon, a man named John Taylor, residing in College-street, Birkenhead, had his arm broken while greasing the wheels of an engine on the dock works. He was immediately conveyed to the Hospital. LIVERPOOL NATURALISTS' FIELD CLUB.—The first general meeting of the club was held last night, at the Royal Institution, Colquitt-street, for the adoption of rules, election of officers, and the enrolment of members. The chair was occupied by the president, Dr. Dickenson, The Rev. Mr. Higgins explained that the object of the society was to get up excursions into the country for the double purpose of recreation and instruction in natural history. The rates prepared at a previous meeting were read and confirmed. The members already number about 100, and many more will, doubtless, join the club when its objects are more widely known. The com mittee will arrange excursions as soon as possible, and we confidently expect not a little pleasure and instruction from the proceedings of the Liverpool Naturalists' Club. MEETING AT THE CONCERT HALL.—A.II influential meeting of the friends and advocates of the temperance cause was held, last night, at the Concert Hall, Lord Nelson-street. Lawrence Heyworth, Esq., presided; and amongst other gentlemen on the platform were Samuel Pope, Esq., (Hon. Secretary of the United ginQdonw 111:a...), M. a. eupuitti advocates of the cause. The chairman, in opening the business of the meeting, explained that it had been called in order that the temperance public of Liverpool might have an opportunity of hearing from their old and valued friend E. G. Delevagne (who is about to depart for America), the great progress which the good work is making in this country and in America. Each day brought forward some melancholy proof of the evils resulting from the use of alcoholic drinks. He (the chairman) had had fifty years' experience of the oppo site—the total abstinence system—and 'he could bear strong testimony to the benefits resulting from such a course of life. E. G. Delevagne next addressed the meeting, and communicated some interesting informa tion concerning the progress of the work in America. Though he could not, like the chairman, boast of fifty years' experience, he could at least speak to thirty, and having tried both plans he had r.o hesitation in declaring in favour of the total abstinence system. After a lengthy and interesting address, Samuel Pope, Esq., moved a resolution to the effect that the meeting pledged itself to use every endeavour to promote the temperance cause. The resolution was carried unanimously. An enthusiastic vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the proceedings. guilty, to be discharged on their own recognisances. He defer.ded the conduct of the Government generally with regard to their prosecutions, declaring that every means would be adopted to check the nefarious proceedings of Irish conspira tors. In reply to Mr. llennessy, he demurred to information drawn from foreign newspapers or from unauthorised sources. He admitted the intense distress in Erris, arising from several local causes, from storms last autumn, from a failure in the potato crop and the fisheries, and in the supply of fodder. He had not interfered with the operations of the Poor-law Commissioners, nor was it his intention to set aside the regu lations established by law. The guardians of the poor had taken steps to borrow money for the relief of the poor, and every arrangement had been made for the reception of the destitute in the workhouse. Both the commissioners and the landed proprietors had done their duty to meet the existing 'ii - 11; and, as it appeared, with every prospect of success. Mr. CAVE called attention to thel passage in the President's Message, relative to the slave trade, and asked the Govern ment whether any fresh communications were proposed to, or had been received on the subject, from the Government of the United States. It now appeared that the United States were as earnest in putting down the traffic, which it was monstrous that Spain should be allowed to continue in defiance of civili sation. Lord J. RUSSELL said that Spain certainly carried on a viola tion of treaties---a trade whereby 40,000 slaves were annually transported to Cuba. The American flag WA shamefully mis used in.the traffic, which neither the British nor American cruisers were abli- to check owing to the imperfection of the American law: A proposition was now under the considera tion of the American Government that British and American vessels in consort might be allowed to search suspicious vessels under eithgr flag. He did not, however, believe that America would consent to pass more stringent laws for the repression of the trade: It was true that kidnapping existed in China to a painful extent, but wars and expeditions were not there undertaken for the purpose of procuring slaves. In reply to Mr. Butler Johnston, Lord C.. PAGET said that there was no truth in the state ment that English workmen were employed at Cherbourg, nor was it likely that they would quit the much higher pay of our own dockyards. • Some discussion took place on the proceedings of Irish business, in reference to which Lord Fermoy blamed the neg ligence of the Government. Leave was given to Mr. H. B. Sheridan to bring in a bill to enable cities, towns, and boroughs of thirty thousand inhabi tants and upwards to appoint stipendiary magistrates. Mr. LYGoN obtained leave to introduce a bill to amend the law relating to the hiring of agricultural servants. The House was counted out at ten minutes to nine p.m. THE CRINOLINE AND THE DEAD PIG We have heard and read of several uses and abuses of crinoline ; but we think the following use that was attempted to be made of it, on Thursday evening, will eclipse the very last new fashion, either from Paris or I;ondon, or any other metropolis, more or less. We think the case, too, must have considerable influence on the fair sex who patronise the " hoops ;" but how it will operate is altogether a matter of speculation and mystery just now. Officer Barrow, No. 7, who stands guard at the Clarence Dock-gate, and who acts as inquisitor general to all and singular, the people who go out thereat, was exercising his peculiar functions of thinking what might or what might not, be contained in the crinoline of the ladies, whom he saw approaching the gate from the river side. Now-the three ladies bore the names, or at least gave them, which was about the same thing—of Johanna Burns, Eliza Dunlery, and Ellen Kelly, and the peculiar functions of the aforesaid trio, seem to be as various as those of Mr. Garibaldi. The mission that they have been engaged on, was that of supplying oranges in exchange for copper or more precious metals, to a heterogeneous mass of people, vul garly called emigrants, who had collected on board the good ship Antartic, bound for that land anomalously called the land of " Freedom," to wit America, the only place in the world where human slavery exists. The ship was on the river, and the people were in the ship, and the prisoners went to the people, and sold oranges to anyone who chose to pur chase the (to many) forbidden fruit. It so happened- 7 curious coincidence—that the captain of the Antartic has a decided penchant for nice pork, and being at some place in the town he espied one of the handsomest young grunters that ever graced a stye. His gastronomic pro pensities were brought into a state of excitement that could not be allayed, except by the slaughter of the juvenile swine, and he forthwith paid 30s. (as sworn to by the cook of the ship) fur the " creature," and ordered it on board. The quadruped having been introduced to the butcher ou board, soon went the way of all its four-legged relations, and the captain gave orders to have it cut up into certain fancy pieces, and no doubt congratulated himself on a feast, such as Alexander might have envied.

The parties had passed all the sentries until they came to Mister Cerberus Barrow, poli. - !emau No. 7, and that functionary thinking the crinoline rather denser than usual, had the impertinent curiosity to examine the ladies; and, sure enough, there was the pork, and the tea, and the rum, and several other mate rials found in the horrible crinoline ! Mr. Barrow is a most unmerciful man, and therefore he brought the three ladies before Mr. Castellain, yesterday, at the police court, when the above facts were given in evi dence, and the parties were remanded. This is the last tale of the crinoline. PLUNDER BY PORTERS. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A DRUGGIST. Yesterday a case of importance came before Messrs. Castellain and Preston, at the Police-court, when two porters, named James Hesketh and Edward Burns, in the employment of Messrs. J. H. Rayner and Co., Exchange -buildings, were brought up by officers Patrick and Laycock, of the detective police, on a charge of having stolen a large quantity of india-rubber, belong ing the above firm, and a large quantity of bees-Wax, the property of Mr. F. J. Eaton, of the Queen Insu rance-buildings, Dale-street. The ease involved Mr. Foulds, a druggist in Pitt-street, and Mr. Cobb said he attended to watch the case on behalf of Mr. Foulds, as well as to defend the prisoners. Officer Patrick said on Wednesday week he and Laycock received information that some porters in the employment of Messrs. Rayner were in the habit of stealing india-rubber, and selling it to Mr. Foulds, druggist, Pitt-street. Mr. Cobb objected to this, on the part of Mr. Foulds, but Mr. Kehoe said it was necessary to open the case fully in order to understand it. Patrick went on to say that they watched the ware house iu MTiccar-street at twelve, when the men were leaving, and at six in the evening again. The previous evening he went along with Laycock a quarter before six, and put themselves in a position to see any one going into Mr. Poulds's shop, and soon after they saw the prisoners go into the shop, with something bulky about them. They went out of his sight in the shop, and then he went in and asked for some cough lozenges. (Laughter.) There was a glass case at the end of the counter, that prevented him seeing behind that part of , the counter ; but he heard Mr. Foulds say—“ It is just nine pounds." He then went round the counter, and got 9lbs. of India rubber on a scale, and the prisoners, with Mr. Foulds, were standing there. He then asked the prisoners what they had to say about the rubber, and they said they knew nothing about it. He then asked Mr. Foulds if he had anything to say, and he replied, the men brought it there, but he had not bought it from them. We wanted to enter the cellar, but Mr. Foulds objected at first, but they went into it, and found 601bs. of India rubber there. He said he could produce an invoice for it, and witness then told him he must go to the police-office and explain the matter to Mr. Superintendent Kehoe. Mr. Cobb objected to this line of evidence, as it had nothing to do with the prisoners. Patrick went on to say that he went into a room over the shop of Mr. Foulds, and there he found 601bs. of bees-wax, and he said he could account for that by an invoice. Took them all to the police-office, and charged the two prisoners with stealing the pro perty from Mr. Rayner's, when they said they found it amongst some rubbish in a warehouse in Cooper's-row, where they were working amongst palm oil. Mr. Foulds then said he purchased the india-rubber from Mr. Edwards, an oil-cloth manufacturer, in James street. Went there with Foulds, and Mr. Edwards said he never sold him any such thing. He said he bought the bees-wax from a Mr. Adamson, who he said lived in Kirkdale, but be could not tell any-thing more about him. He did produce a bill for 161bs. of bees wax, but it was discovered that a large quantity of wax had been stolen from. Mr. F. J. Eaton, of the Queen Insurance-buildings, Dale-street.---Mr. Cobb cross-exa- mined the witness at length, but his evidence was not shaken.—Laycock was examined, and corroborated the evidence of Patrick; and several warehousemen, belong ing to Messrs. Rayner, Brown, Shipley, and Co., and others, were examined to prove the property.—Mr. George Broadbridge was produced to prove the pro perty in the bees-wax, as that of Mr. Eaton, but Mr. Cobb objected, as there was no charge against them on that point. After some consultation, Mr. Townley, warehouseman at Messrs. Brown, Shipley, and Co.'s, was called, when Mr. Cobb objected to his evidence, as he had not made the entries in the book himself. The witness, however, said they had india-rubber in Rayner's warehouse in MTiccar-street, and one of the cases was found short. Mr. Kehoe then called on the bench to have Mr. Foluds taken into custody, on a charge of having received the property, knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Castellain said he wondered he had not been already taken into custody. Mr. Kehoe said : I would have done so yester day evening, but for a reason I told Mr. Garnett. Laycock then took Mr. Foulds into custody.—Mr. Cobb : Will you take bail for him ?—Mr. Castellaiu Yes ; two sureties in £lOO each, and himself in £2OO, as it is a very serious case. The prisoners were then remanded to the 12th instant, but Mr. Foulds was allowed to remain until this day in custody at the bridewell until bail could be procured. LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. CASTELLAIN.) "ABDUCTION" OF THE PORTRAIT OF A NAVAL OFFICER. Gustave Nelson, described as a boarding-house keeper, of Charlotte-place, was charged by William T. Wyatt, photo grapher, of Price-street, with having stolen the portrait of a naval officer, value 6s. The complainant said, about nine o'clock the previous morning the prisoner entered my studio, and asked me to lend him sixpence to get a drink. I gave him the money, and then he went away, when I missed the in the evening he found him, with the portrait in his pocket. Mr. Cobb, for the prisoner, cross-examined the witness, who said, I know he keeps a boarding-house. He does not bring sailors to me to have their portraits taken, nor do I give him commissions. I did not promise him any commission, nor is there any dispute about commission. Mr. Cobb : Did he ever bring you any one to have a portrait taken'? Witness; Yes ; a sailor, and he paid me 35., but I refused to give him any commission out of so small a sum. Did he not say he would keep the portrait of the naval officer until you paid him No. I met him at a public house in the evening- What were you before you became a likeness taker'? Oh, I am a long time in the business. Mr. Cobb : But before that what were you? A school-boy, I calculate. Mr. Cobb : What did he say to you? He asked me if I would take his wife and family, and the like'? (Laughter.) Mr. Cobb : And then he took the naval officer ? Witness : Yes, he stole it. He was pretty well up in drink at the time—he was drunk. Mr. Cobb : There is no felony in this case. Mr. Castellain : I think not, but I will fine him is. and costs for being drunk. Mr. Cobb : Oh, he will pay that with pleasure. APPLICATION FOR PROTECTION FROM A HUSBAND- Mr. Bluck made an application to Messrs. Castellain and L. Peel, on behalf of an elegant-looking person named Mary Ire land, for an order of protection under the act. He stated that the lady (who appeared very juvenile) was married nearly • twenty years, and is the mother of eight ehildren. Her hus band was a man in a respectable position in life, and WO receiving over a hundred pounds a year, but for some year' past he had not given her anything towards the support of her children. She supported them by her own exertions• For the last three months he had gone away altogether, and lived over the water. This he took to be desertion under the act ; and that, coupled with the fact of his not giving anything towards the support of the children, would be sufficient to entitle her to the order, as she feared he would come and interfere with her when she had acquired something fo r the support of her children. He then called the applicant , who corroborated the statement ; but in the course of a con— versation that followed, the lady said the separation wa g mutual, and she wished him to go and remain away from her- The magistrates said, that under such circumstances, they could not grant the order. She could proceed against _biz' by another process, if she wished. ASSAULT BY SAILORS. Henry Chapman, Charles Mohan, and Joseph Fieidena , three sailors belonging to the American ship Champion, lYiu s in the Stanley Dock, were brought up by Officer Bridge, 0 0 3 charge of having violently assaulted and threatened to stab William James Merry, the chief mate of the ship. It appear ed that the prisoners, in a state of drunkenness, went on board the ship the previous day, and called for the chief mate. li e came out of the cabin on deck, when the prisoners at once attacked him, hit him with a spike in the eye, and then Char man drew a knife and swore he would stab him. They were however arrested before they could put theirthreats into execution. A youth, the son of the captain, proved that be saw the men act as described. The prisoners said the mat s was in the habit of beating them with brass "knuckles," an . ; they were only defending themselves. 'This was denied, and the men were.remanded in order to produce further evidence. AN INGENIOUS CROSS-EXAMINATION. Mary Bluff, Margaret Sweeney, and Anne Christy we re charged with having picked the pocket of a female named Sarah Newton. The prisoners were all well-dressed young women, and well known to the police. They were in a crowd at a fire that took place the previous evening, in Denison street, and the prosecutrix was there also, when the prisoners picked her pocket of a purse containing sevenpence and some pawn-tickets. They got away at the time, but were subse quently arrested, and the pawn-tickets were found where they stood. The most remarkable feature in the case was a cross examination of a witness named Crawford , by Mr. Cobb, who defended the prisoners. The witness, in reply to questions put to him, answered as follows: I saw one of them put her hand in the woman's pocket. I am a porter, or a labourer, at anything else you like. My hands are very fine. I live with rny mother, off Brunswick-road. I would have "legged" the prisoners if I had been in uniform ; but I wanted more proof. I know something about "proof," because I was in the police. I was "sacked" from the force for being " beery." I don't know how long it is since I earned an honest penny, but I think about March last, at the Railway-station at Wapping. 1 "sacked" myself from that place. I don't think I went for any purpose to the fire, except to look at it. / know a good deal of dodgerY, and am up to " snuff." Mr. Cobb dealt with much severity on the evidence of this man, and said he did not A p l A i. v.K C E o ß bb an w d a4 know anything about him when he comm enced to crass examine him, and he was only enabled to elicit the facts from . Hocouros.) ERaBthEATING . ingenuity. The prisoners were remandedc."l the prisoners ' tße f a:g re wr. complimented on his Messrs. A cooper named Thomas WlF was charged by his wifewho lives in Skelhorne-stree t . ' Elizabeth with having violently assaulted her. The peculiar features in this case were, t hat poor woman is blind tage of this , and the husband used to take privationadvan and beat her violently. It was proved that on the present the poor creature, "ca6ion the man behaved meat brutal l y to beat her very severely, and altogeth er hia conduct was most unmanlyand savage. The charge being fully established, the prisoner was sent to gaol for six months with hard labour. DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE. ---A desperate attempt at self-destruction was made on Tuesday morn ing, at an early hour, by Mr. Pellatt, an. old gentleman of reputed wealth, carr yi ng on th e business o f a grocer, in Harrow-road, London. It appears that about seven o'clock a.m. the u n f or t una t e man was seen to throw up a top room wind ow , an d i mme di a tely first looked up and down the street, apparently to s h e i e s afterwards --having if he was watched—spring from the window • i n in f i nt descent he came in contact with some iron reds of a lower window, for the protection of flowercl:n7e which broke the violence of his fall, and from_ which he s A o eLthionugec:: he fell upon the spikes of the iron railing, one f he broke, and from there to the pavement. the full extent of his injuries have not been a c I ' l ' yet they are not expected to tesult fatallY•
