MARK-LANK.-7TIIIB DAY.

There was no alteration in the value of Wheat or Flour
in Mark lane this morning ; but trade in both articles was
dull, at the rates of Monday last.
The late refreshing rains have tended to check the uneasi-
ness which was beginning to manifest itself with respect to
spring corn, and there was less disposition to purchase.
Barley, Oats, Beans, and l'cas, at former prices.
No change occurred in the value of Cloverseed.

GENERAL ROSAS.

Berl GRANVILLE rose to put a question to the noble
lord opposite (Mahnesbury). In the morning perms of
yesterday there appeared the following statement:—
„ Plymouth, Tuesday.
"The ez•Bietator of Buenos Ayres and family, who
strived here on Sunday, in her Majesty's screw stem-ship
Conflict, Commander Robert Jenner, landed yesterday
afternoon at the jetty of the Devonport dockyard, where be
was received by Commodore Superintendent Sir Michael
Seymour. Shortly after lauding the general took up his
quarters at Moor-head's 'Loyal Hotel, Fore-street. Devon-
poet, where he was visited by the Con Admiral, Sir John
y, and other heads of departments. Sir John
Rolt, the Commander of the Forces in the Weytern Dis-
trict. was prevented by sickness from calling at the hotel.
Is consequence of a Treasury order, every respect was paid
by the officers of the Conflict to the noble visitor, and at
the Custom-house every facility was gisen for the ready
clearance of his homage."
If this statonent were correct it would appear that men.
Rotes was encased with rather unusual official honours.
IMe did not wish to limit in the slightest degree the hospi-
tality which this country had always shown to foreign
refugee*. Such was the variety of opinion in this country ;
so little was that opinion checked by any restrictive law ;
sad so secustowted were we to tonal intercourse with per-
sons who differed from us in political opinions, that he be-
hests' no 111,11•14,13.1, whatever his opinions might be, if
driven here by political misfortune, failed to meet
with a favourable reception from some part. But
he thought that the preceding government had shown
the stormiest dbcrrtiou in avoiding to receive with
official honours foreign refugees, some of whom had
been r,marLable for their birth, others fur the power which
they had previously exercised, and others fur their
great literary attainments. lie hail no donld that
the answer which be should get would show that the
reception to which he had referred was in reality merely an
earn...mon of spontaneous courtesy, and that no 'political de-
monstration was intended by it. Ile should, therefore, be
obliged to the noble tail if be would answer the question
whether instructions had been given to receive Ben. ROOM
with ohicisl honours?

The Earl 01 MALMESBURY said the paragraph to
which the noble earl nierred had escaped his attention, and
he was not aware of the fret it stated until his noble friend
wrote to him that moronic on the subject, stating the man-
ner in which Gen. Hoods had been received by the autho-
rities at Plymouth. Assuredly no order to the effect referred
to bed been issued from the k'oreign-ollioe, and he thought
he might say as much tor the Admiralty. lie entirely
agreed with his noble friend that • refugee of rank and sta-
tion mild feel himself more agreeably received when he was
received in quiet, than if his snivel were marked
with any particular honour; ant: he believed that was
the titivate opinion of General Rome himself. The only
communication which the government had received from
him was • letter very simply written, asking leave to live,
as humbly sad quietly so playable. in her Majesty's domi-
nions ; and asking for some person to be placed near him
until he knew the tisplish language better. He could not,
therefore, explain why the authorities at Plymouth should
have reamed him in such a manner as they appeared to
have done, except by supposing that a very natural feeling
instigated the ufficers to receive hospitably, and with a rser-
tam degree of welcome, a refugee from a foreign country
who was no common refugee, but one who had shown
great distiaetion and kindness to English merchants—a
refugee with whom her Majesty's late government bad
mental on nee nietions of • mint important character, and
with whom la 1819 they actually signed a treaty.
The Marquis of t LANILICAItDE wished to know if
tki. re had been • Treasury order directing particular atten-
tion to bs paid to lima.?
The Berl of MALMESBL'HY was not aware that there
bad been such no order, but such an order might have
been sent, because Mr. Gore, in his communication with the
poet rnruent, stated that it was a complete error to suppose
that General Row way possessed of any money, or any
ether property, for he had It'd without money, and would
have to spend the rest of bin life in abject penury.
After • few words from Lord STA:SLIT of ALDIIIIIT,
whit h were inaudible in the gallery,
Viscount CANNING said he was not io the he en when
the question was aels,d, hot it appeared to him that It
should go farther back. As Rases arrived in • laneasn's
atop, nothing was more usual then that the QOM./ Ganef
seeing him arrive under her Majesty's penult, theald de
se in their power to mark their seam a reaped 4 him
lie did not know whether the masks of Been aa Weld
• Q11C13.11 ship was authorised by the previous isetreetient
01 the Admiralty or ant, and he had no wish te lagiire.
Ile agreed genteelly with the obeemdess whisk had -been
aide am to Mesetal Roses.

The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND said that, although
the qut vtion had set been asked, be begged to state that so
mkt hid bees seat to receive Gesrea liana es board a
Yawl's Ship; but there was • gement eider to move the

amikkeation of all was to be dernitt from the
meads of the Fever Hospital of London. It moored by
the report of last year, that there were received -from ad
parts of the metropolis 877 eases of fever ; and I. show the

those patients no less than 211 cases mine Sem the eastesn
side of Grey's-iaw lane ; and front • two hams in thid
locality therl were 32 cases, 12 from one, and 30 from
another. (Hear, hear.) The noble earl thee rood extracts
from the Registrar General's report with reference to the
seertality in I.aasabin. Similar evils were to be found in
'Marge towns where sanitary arrangements were defective,
and the people were congregated in great flumes. In Brad-
ford, in 1841, the deaths were 16,58 to a thousand of the
population; in 1848, 24.4 ; in 1819, 26.0; in 1830, 2113.
In Selby and many other towas the mortality had been
proportionably great, and in every instance it far out-
stripped the increase in the population. Year by year,
thousands and tees of thousands were perishing ia the Me-
tronolis, where thouiands came into dens Ms ansigmente
of which were only calculated fur headeedi—plems
which be defied anyone to describe who bal Mt

In the metropolis, on spaces et ground net exceeding in all
218 acres, closely surrounded by the abodes of the living,
crowded together in dense mesons, upwards of 60,010 dead
bodies were buried every year. In Bothael-_sees
burial-
ground, consisting of as mesa Meat M. seam and • half,
there had been interred shoe he corning ha theieer 1746,
',verde et 56,000 dyad bodies. In Hanhill-Bells beriel-
greend, City-road, emulating of an area of leis than her
wee, there had been interred from April, 1713, to August,
11188, according to the registry, which, however, in the earlier
years, was very imperfectly kept, 107,416 dead bodies. But
in St. Pancras churchyard, one-half of which had been used
as a burial.place fer at least oil centuries, there had been
deposited the remains of more than 20 generations ; and in
this space of ground, wl.ich did not even now exceed four
acres, and a large portion of which was considered as full to
excess 20 years ego, there had been interred since that pe-
riod upwards of 26,000 bodies. Er imating the duration of
a generation at 30 year., them must have been interred in
the small space of ',UM acres' in the last generation a million
gel a half of dead bodies ; and within the next 30 years
mem than mother million and • ball of the dead—that is,
• l..ra preperthin of these who now people the metropolis,
weuM haw is lie crowded into those same churchyards un-
less ether and better provision for interment were made.
The noble lord, after entering very fully into the statistics
et the subject, and demonstrating the miseries which a large
portion of the population suffered under the existing system,
enteinded by entreating the house to pass a resolution to
the abet that the ennitary state of the metropolis required
the hemediate ineeepsition of the government.
the Artiobbirp of CANTERBURY felt that be
mold mot be dreg lip duty if he did not rise to bear his
Mimi se to them et the statements which the noble
made to the hors. (Hear, bear.)
The lad of DERHY—lVithout entering into the
eleilkille of his Mile hind, would at once &J-
-OH that a peptise= Heft in the country was more
not only then a population living ia the me-
repslh was more healthy than a population
past up in the large towns of the manufactur-
ing districts. Ho would likewise admit that there
was a difference of ealubrity in proportion to the
extent and cleanliness of the towns, their crowded state,
=dila@ want of a free circulation of air. His noble friend
had pakited out the existence of a great evil; but he
Amid not be satisfied with that; he should have shown
what remedy could be applied; he should have shown what
the government could do—he was not speaking of the pre-
ttiest goveralaent alone, but what preceding governments
and preseding parliaments mild have done to remedy the
evil. He should have shown that preceding governments
and parliaments had failed to give attention to this rub-
int, or that they had not introduced illeasstell for the
of diminishing evils which no human legislation
=T edo away with altogether. (Hear, hear.) He was
glad that his noble friend altered the terms of his motion, for
it be had brought it forward in the shape in which it stood
on the paper a few days ago he should have felt it to be his
duty to oppose it, bemuse it implied that Mae obstruc-
tions were thrown is the way of pediment edepeing each
