In the market there was a large business, iu some instances
at declining prices. There two seemingly irrcruncileable
facts are somewhat accounted for by the circumstance of its
being the last day for the account, when a number of forced

HULL, MARCIE 30.-Inilueneed by ether markets, busi-
ness during the pant week has been very inanimate in every
branch of the trade. A good deal of rain has fallen, which
cannot fail proving highly beneficial. At this day's market
there was a fair supply 01 Wheat from the farmers, and
more disposition on their part to all, but our millers gen►
rally nut being huyers, but little businem was done, and we
have to quote the market nominally at 3.. to 4s. per qr.
lower. We are overdone with Barley, a large arrival having
taken place. It is offering at irregular prices, on the ave.
rase 3s. to 4a. under hut week's rates. Oats, without any
particulcr supply, are dull, and In. lower. Beans and Peas
Is. to 2s. lower. Linseed fully as dear. Linseed Cakes are
offering at our quotations, with a preponderance of sellers.
No Rapeseed on the market, and but little inquiry for Cakes.
The following are the present prices of grain

HADLZION, MARCH 29.- We bad a small market tr-Ity,
and both Wheats and Barleys were 2e lower; Beans, 25.;
and Peas, Is. per qr. lower.
LEEDS, MARCH 30. -Our arrivals are moderate of all
articles. The trade for Wheat is quite retail, and prices are
Is. per qr. below Friday's rates. Barley also tdow sale at a
further reduction of 1.. per qr. Oats and Shelling steady.
Beans rather lower. We annex the stocks of grain at this
place: Wheat, 28,569; Barley, 750; Oats, 2,762; Bemis,

Oats, 483 ; Barley, 1,316; Beane, 1,390; Linseed, 10,
LEIGHTON BUZZARD, MARCH 30.-At this day's market
Wheat was in fair supply, and met a slow sale, at a decline
of fully 3e. per load under last week's rates. Barley above
a usual supply, and 2s. to 3s. per quarter cheaper. Been
and Peas also a dull sale, at barely late rates. Wheat, pre
load of 5 bushels, 41s. to 475. Barley, per qr. imperial, 4ft,
to 495. Beans, per 5 bushels, 295. to 32.. Peas, maple, DU
to 345.
LIVERPoOL, MARCH 30.-The very moderate tarmacs et
British produce received into this port since Tuesday last,
are amply made up by superabundant importations from Con-
tinental Europe Egypt, and Annexe, especially those of
Wheat, Beans, Indian Corn, Indian WM, and Flour, the
last named article amounting to 111,394 barrels. Notwith-
atanding these extraordinary arrivals, combined with the
more feeble state of the leading country markets last week,
and the depression in London yesterday, our Corn Exchange
this morning was numerously attended by town and country
millers, some from distant parts of the interior ; and in most
descriptions of Wheat a fair extent of business was done,
at a decline of 4d. to 6d. per 701 b. from the
rates of this day se'nnight. In English or Irish I
Flour no ales were apparent. Of American, however,
several parcels were taken early at 38s. Subsequently good
western brands needed to 375, per barrel, which, inducing
even the millers to buy freely, transactions at the latter price
were considerable. Barley of all qualities and Mait were
little noticed, and each Is. per qr. cheaper. Beans were also
in slow request, at a similar abatement. Peas, upon a mode-
rate demand, were the turn dearer. Oats and Oatmeal dull
and lower. Indian Corn, baring declined in the course of
the past week about 124. per qr., met an improved inquiry,
and We, to a fair amount were effected at our reduced quota-
tions. British: Wheat, par nib., English, red, new, 10s. 10.1. to

Lord BROUGHAM contradicted a statement in a weekly
paper—that his opinion was at all changed upon this subject.

its steps in abolishing imprisonment for debt.
THE SCOTCH PEERAGE.
Lord COLVILLE, in moving, pursuant to notice, for a
return of the peers who voted at the election on the 17th
instant, for a representative peer for Scotland, assured the
house that be meant to throw no discredit on any party, and
that he made this motion as much for the protection of the
public as to preserve the dignity of the peerage. He begged
to repeat what he stated on Friday evening—in consequence
of a Scotch paper, in commenting upon the conversation that
then took place on this subject, having said that he had com-
plained of ' the fraudulent assumption of his title"—that he
had no more personal connexion with the matter than any
other peer in that house. (Hear, hear.)
Lord CAMPBELL corroborated the noble lord's state.

The motion was agreed to.
ADJOURNMENT FOR THE EASTER RECESS.
Earl GREY, in moving the adjournment, said that he had
considered the suggestion which had been made by some
noble lords to adjourn till Thursday, the 15th of April,
instead of- -as had been originally proposed—till Tuesd'y
the 13th, and finding that no public inconvenience
would result from its adoption, while it would be more
convenient to many noble lords, especially those con-
nected with Ireland, be would move that their lordships do
now adjourn till Thursday, the 15th. (Hear, hear.) He, at
the same time, gave notice that, after the recess, their lord-
ships would meet in the new building, her Majesty having
been greciously pleased to assign a portion of her palace to
their lordships' use.
The house then adjourned, at six o'clock, till Thurs day,
