nurse', belonging to a Scotch family, was walking
With a child in the suburbs yesterday ; the child speaks
with a strong Scotch accent, and, seeing some sweets in
a window, asked the nurse for a bawbee, which all the
world,..except- 697, knows to be a halfpennY. That
learned pundit, being within ear-shot of that "blessed
baby," rushed up to the nurse, and, looking batons at
her, cried out—" Now, then, move on out of this, as
that's the way you kiuMcs lath the bleats to irisiilt the

BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTERDAY.--(Before Mr. Com-
missioner Perry.)—ln /*BLEAR BROTHERS.—Thesebank-
rupts, until lately carrying on business in Liverpool as
commission merchants, came up on the adjourned appli-
cation for certificates.— Mr. Sill, of Birmingham,
appeared for the assignees; and Mr. Aspinall, instructed
by Messrs. Anderson and Collins, supported the bank-
rupts.—Mr. Aspinall observed thet eillee the case was
last before the court be clad frilly considered the various
etplanettniat of their affairs given by the bankrupts, and
admitted that they were hardly satisfactory, particularly
with reference to the watches, the whole of which they
did not at present account for, but he had no doubt a
satisfactory explanation could be given; and what he
had now to ask was, that their application for certifi•
cates might be withdrawn, and the sitting adjourned
sine Sili, for the assignees, did not object, arid
left the matter in the hands of the court,-.---Efis Honour
said it would be better if the bankrupts enirld give an
explanation, that time should be afforded there far the
purpose; he *odd ilot; titteVeVer; adjourn the sitting

time: e should, therefore, order the case to stand
over till the Gth August..
THE GREAT EASTERN.—The exertions of the Great
Ship Company directors and their subordinates have
been so unremitting that there is now no doubt about
the readiness of their vessel to start on Saturday next,
June 9. A large body of engineers and smiths from
Swindon went on. board on Monday to assist in carrying
out the alterations in the machinery department, and
will be finished by Wednesday next. Mr, Yates, the
secretary to the Great Ship Company, will sail for New
York to-day (Saturday), in other to make arrangements
for the reception of the ship on the other side of the
Atlantic, and the last steamer brought over a pilot from
New York for the Great Eastern. There is a very fair
detiaand for the berths, but as the number will be
limited to 300 passengers only, there is no doubt of the
ship having her full complement. The crew signed
articl? on Saturday last, and almost the whole of the
hands are now on board. Mr. Bald, the teenager, still
remains in the ship, and Will accompany it to New
York, and remain with her during her stay in America.
One of the London papers suggests that the start on the
9th should be for a trial trip only, and her final depar-
ture should be deferred till about the 20th of June. She
will then arrive in New York in ample time for the
celebrated 4th of July, as the voyage, if managed with
the caution proposed as to graduated speed, will occupy
about nine days.

THE CRY FROM THE PARISH IVORKIIOESE.—The
complaint recently made to the Poor-law Board by
19 old paupers of the Liverpool Workhouse verifies the
old adage which says, that in all conditions and under
all circumstances Englishmen grumble. Plunge an
Englishman into difficulties and he will naturally
grumble; extricate him and he will grumble; place
"-him in a comfortable position and he will grumble still ;
surround him with wealth and honours and he will find
something after all to grumble at. Yesterday, we visited
the workhouse, and we certainly saw no good reason why
the old men Should have complained of ill-treatment.
The room in which they spend the day is large, commo-
dious, healthy; and well ventilated ; and is, moreover,
many feet above the level of the road in Brownlow-hill;
the yards where the old men patrol are spacious and
airy; the bedrooms are clean, and everything desirable.
The only faults we could find with the building and the
arrangements were slight dampness in two instances in the
former, and a want of fire in the old-men's apartment.
Taking the recent change of the weather into consi-
deration, we think that they should have fire. How-
ever, the governor states that, had they complained of
cold, fire would have been lit at once. Then, why have
they complained ? We do not know ; for of the 15
more than one-half are daily occupied in oat-door work.
Three attend upon the relieving officers; others are
employed in whitewashing the walls; others have light
duties to attend to; and a few of them how State that
they signed the memorial, thinking it was a request for
fire.
