EDINBURGH, July 12.-The weather during the last few
days has been very favourable for the crops. There was,
however, only a moderate supply of Wheat at market this

effected at fully last week's prices; indeed, in some instances,
an advance of le. per qr. was obtained for choice qualities ;
foreign was in fair demand, and fine Rostock and Dentine
commanded rather more money. The supply of Barley was
small, but sales were dull, without alteration to value.

PROTECTION OF FEMALES.

Lord BROUGHAM laid on the table a bill to punish
fraud and mein en the part of procurers and procuresses.
Lord CAMPBELL thought these discussions were not
only painful but very objectionable on various grounds. He
thought the subject had better be postponed until next ses-
sion to give time for its more mature consideration.
Lorsi DENMAN believed that such a measure would do
more harm than good.
The bill was then read a first time.
INDEPENDENCE OF PARLIAMENT (No. 2) BILL.
Lord BROUGHAM moved the second reading of this bill,
and said its object was to extend the present dirqualification
with respect to members of parliament who became bank-
rupts to those members who might become insolvents. If,
however, it was thought advisable to postpone the measure
until the next session he should have no objection to do so.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE made a few observations
which were inaudible in the gallery, alter which
Lord BROUGHAM postponed the measure until next
session.
