The question for the consideration of the manufacturer
remains to be solved by himself. Can he not insist on
such a price for his goods that will compensate for the
altered value of the raw material ? He can, and must ;
and there is the secret which all the Associations in
the world cannot help him to. It rests with himself
the cry of the trade has been, " Yarns up and Cotton down "
But they have at last found that in crying Cotton down,
they have depressed their own market, and the result is
that Cotton has got up, and they have been so accustomed
to think of it as impossible to get up, that Cotton has be-
come the master in spite of all their efforts ; and the cure
in their own hands, of asking more money for their yarn)
is a remedy that they have hardly thought worth while at-
tempting. Let them do this, and leave the natural demand
to work out for them a supply, which neither Associations,
government control, nor speechifying can add one ball of
Cotton to—unless it pays.

HOUSE O+±' LORDS.—MONDAY.

ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION.
The Earl of DONOUGHMORE asked whether there would
be any objection on the part of the Government to lay on
the table a statement of the income and expenditure of
the Ecclesiastical Commission before the Ministers' Money
Bill came under discussion, that they might have informa-
tion as to what funds were available to carry out the
object of the measure.

THE SCOTCH LAW OF LEGITIMACY.

"Earl GREY presented a petition from Mr. W. P. R.
Shedden, complaining among other things that by a
decision of the Court of Session in Scotland in 1803, and
of that house in 1808, obtained in his infancy, he has
been deprived of his statutes of natural born subject
of this realm, and as the legitimate child of his
parents, and of the means of duty investigating, in any
court of law, the qnestion of such statutes, and causing
the same to be recognised, and praying for such relief and
redress as to this house may seem meet; and to move, to
refer the said petition to a select committee.
The LORD CHANCELLOR considered the appeal in the
case to their lordship's house unprecedented ; the pro-
per tribunal to decide the question being a court of law.
The noble :and learned lord then proceeded, at great
length, to review the proceedings in the case, justifying
the decision of the court of session. Alter a lengthened
discussion, a division took place upon the question,
whether the petition should be referred to sa select com-
mittee, which resulted in the rejection of the motion by
19 to 11.

The house adjourned at a quarter-past 11 o'clock
