LI VERPO,

IL CORN EXCHANGE.-April 11

We had a full attendance of both town and country
dealers, some of the latter from markets where our prices
have not lately been enabled to compete, and a fair extent
of business was transacted in Wheat, at an advance on
our previous quotations of hi. to 2d. per bushel : tl►e
chief attention was, however, directed to the liner do-
seriptions. Nor were Oats neglected, though held fur all
improvement of id. to Id. per bushel, at which advance
sales to a considerable amount were effected, some choice
qualities reaching Ss. 6d. per 451 b. Grinding Barley wee
hi. to 2d. per 601 b. dearer, but there was no amendment
in Malting qualities ; nor can we vary the quotations for
any other Grain. Flour was not free sale, but holders
were firm, and Oatmeal brought 6d. per load more money.

His Majesty's ships Asia and Isis were shortiy ex-

Our Correspondent from Minorca gives unqualified
praise to the unremitted exertions of Captain Quin, R.N.
as demonstrative of that true character of the British sea-
man, in the perseverance, against almost physical impossi-
bility, in restoring to his Majesty's service the Pelorus,
after being bilged, and almost high and dry on the rock
under Fort St. Philip. His zeal caused a certain number
of officers and men from the Dutch, American, and French
men-of-war, to put themselves into quarantine to assist.
The Pelorus was hove down at Malta, and is gone from
thence to Algiers and England.

received at the North and South American Coffee-house.
(From the Singapore Price Current.)
COFFEE—Several parcels have changed hands, varying

By the American Papers received this morning to the
17th uh., it appears from Mexico of the 3d February,
that tranquillity reigned through the Republic, excepting
in the State of Yucatan. The Minister of Finances had
addressed the Chambers in a long memorial, representing
the deficiency of the Treasury, and showing the necessity of
obtaining funds for the defence of the Republic, which is
threatened by an invasion from adventurers from the north,
who are protected by the United States. This is supposed
to be a ruse on the part of the Minister to obtain money,
as these adventurers are supposed to be only a banditti.
Accounts from Colombia of the 22d February, state that
General Sucre, President of the Congress, made a reply to
the address of Bolivar, in which he says that the abdica-
tion of Bolivar could n,,t be accepted, as he made a solemn
promise to continue the exercise of the supreme authority.
A letter from Puerto Cabello of the 10th March, states
that two emissaries had reached Valencia from Bogota,

By letters from Kingston it appears that large parties

The Quebec Papers state that his Excellency's message

UNION.HALL

A man named Flinn, and two women, were
charged with a robbery under singular circumstances.
About one in the morning, a respectable man named
WTaggart, while returning home after supping with
some friends, was accosted by one of the female
prisoners, and prevailed upon to accompany her to
her lodgings. She conducted him to a place called
Rats' Castle, a miserable dwelling, situated in the
heart of the Mint, and on retiring to bed he placed
his money under the bolster, and his clothes, which
were quite new, on a chair by the side of the bed.
On awaking in the morning he discovered that his
money was gone, and his consternation was still
greater when he missed his clothes also. On
awaking the woman and telling her what had hap-
pened, she said it was an open house, and that all
sorts of people had access to it at all hours of the
day as well as night. In this dilemma, M'Taggart
wrapped the old tattered quilt around his body, and
having with difficulty descended an almost perpen-
dicular winding flight of stairs, he groped his way
along the dark passage of the house to the door,
and then called fur assistance. A policeman came
to his relief, the house was examined, but neither
clothes nor money were to be found. The police-
man then procured a suit of his own clothes, which
he lent to Mr. 314Tuggart, and in that dress he ap-
peared before the Magistrates.
The officers described " Rats' Castle" as a den
of thieves and prostitutes. It is a very old and
dilapidated building, containing a vast number of
rooms, and is in such a tottering condition, that the
whole fabric is in danger of falling every day, not-
withstanding every part of it is inhabited, and the
landlord, who only pays a trifling rent, receives
3001. per annum from the inmates, by letting out
the rooms at so much per week.
There being no evidence to implicate the pri-
soners, they were discharged. The Magistrate or-
dered the surveyor to be made acquainted with the
dangerous condition of " Rats' Castle," in order
that it might be levelled to the ground.
London, England, 1830-04-16

which relief is administered by law to the poor.
Mr. MALTHUS says truly, 44 that the grand
" objection to the language used respecting the
" right of the poor to support, is, that in point
" of fact we do not perform what we promise,
and the poor may justly accuse us of deceiving
" them." Assuredly we deceive both them and
ourselves, if we imagine that the temporary good
arising from the relief given by the parishes,
outweighs the evil of the deterioration and cor-
ruption of society, by the gradual diffusion of
vice and misery amongst the mass of the people.
We do not in truth relieve the poor any further
than a man who gives a penny to a beggar in
the street does so. What is wanted is to change
their condition--to enable them to support
themselves by their labour—to make them useful
instead of burthensome to society. To effect
this, Parliament must pay more regard to the
principles of population than it has hitherto
done—and it must act upon very different
maxims than that the poor have a right to be
supported by the nation," for no rights can
justly exist which are inconsistent with the per-
manent welfare of society.

Wells still to his remedy, by action, for the injury'
done to his carriage.
Mr. Dawes, the landlord of a public-house called
the Earl of Albemarle, in South Audley-street,
• IVlayfair, was summoned to show cause why he re-
- fused to ply the usual reward to some firemen who
,c attended with their engines on an alarm of fire give"
at his house.
To account for his refusal Mr. Dawes produced se
abstract of the Building Act, under which these re•
wards are authorised, and • pointed the Attention of
the Magistrates to a clause in it, which exempts
from all the provisions of the Act every Royal Pe"
lace or other building occupied by the King, or for
his Majesty's use; and under this clause Mr. Dawe;
said he claimed exemption for his house, as soldiers
were quartered there.
The Magistrate so completely differed in opinion
with Mr. Dawes, that he directed him to pay the
reward claimed from him.

Mr. Dawes said, that although his opinion wag,
still unchanged as to his exemption, he would, ac-
cording to the Magistrate's direction, pay the re-
ward, and he immediately paid it.
A young man named Hutchins, in the service of
Mr. Balm:ide!, a lithographic printer and engraver

street, Foley-lilac,, was charged with receiving the
same, knowing them to have been stolen.
The ease was clearly proved against both the pri•
soners, anJ they Were fully committed for trial.

AMATEUR SCULLERS' MATCH.
Yesterday afternoon a good sprinkle of gentlemen
amateurs assembled in their respective cutters, wherries,
&c. at Westminster-bridge, to witness the long-expected
contest from thence to Putney-bridge between Messrs.
Wingfield and Howard, well-known gentlemen ama-
teurs, for twenty pounds.. About four o'clock the start,
took place, each gentleman rowing in celebrated wager
boats. Mr. Howard had the advantage in a slight degree
in going off, but Mr. Wingfield shortly became scull and
scull with him, and off Lambeth Palace was evidently
ahead. At Vauxhall Mr. W. was leading in style, and at
Battersea was between five and six boats' lengths in ad-
vance of his opponent, who, notwithstanding the exertion
he made, lost the match by some distance. It was a well-
contested match throughout ; and although Mr. Howard
was unfortunate on this occasion. it is e.xnected he will

HOUSE or COADIONS-(LAST NIGHT,

The SPEAKER, on the House assembling, in-
formed the House that the Bill for the abolittonof
fees had been returned from the Lords, with consi-
derable amendments. He had carefully looked over
these amendmennts, and had no doubt that they
were such as could not be admitted. At the same
time he recommended the House, as had been done
on former occasions, that these amendments should
be printed before they were taken into consideration.
He recommended this, not as doubting the inadmis-
sibility of the amendments, but in order to make the
House fully aware of their nature. They were so
voluminous, and the Bill was so small, that he thought
this necessary.
On the motion of Mr. HUME, the amendments
were ordered to be printed.
NEW POLICE.
Mr. HUME moved for Returns of the Expences
of watching the Parishes now under the new Police
in 1828, in order to judge of the comparative advaL-
tages of the new system.—Ordered.
TREASURY DISPENSING POWER.
Sir J. GRAHAM, at the request of his Right
Hon. Friend (the Member for Waterford), wished
to ask the Noble Lord (the Secretary for Ireland)
if any of the money lent to the Corporation of LON.-
donderry in 1814, to build a bridge over the Boyne,
had ever been paid back ? He observed that the
Act of Parliament, authorising the loan, was very
strict in expressing its payment, and pointed out the
mode by which the tolls were to be sequestered, if
the money was not paid. He wished to know if
any means had been taken to enforce the Act of Par-
liament, and if not, by what authority its operations
had been suspended ?
Lord F. L. GOWER explained, that the Act of
Parliament had been suspended by a Treasury Mi-
nute of 1819, and the present conduct of the Go-
vernment in not enforcing payment. was a continua-
tion of that Minute. He would move for some Re-
turns that would place the matter before the House
in all its bearings.
After a few words from Sir G. HILL and Mr.
HUME, several Returns were ordered to elucidate
this subject, and
Sir J. GRAHAM was understood to say that
he would, on some future occasion, call the atten-
tion of the House to the subject of the Treasury
suspending the execution of an Act of Parliament.
WEST INDIA CHURCH ESTABLISHMENT.
Sir JAMES GRAHAM gave notice, as the ex-
pence of the West India Church Establishment, ac-
cording to a return recently laid on the table, was
not paid out the surplus of the Four-and-a-Half per
Cent. duties, that he would on Friday bring forward
a motion on this subject, previous to going into
a Committee of Supply.
Mr. PENDARVIS presftnted a petition from
the owners of lead mines in Cornwall, praying for a
duty on foreign lead.

L A MB ETILST REET.

We yesterday gave an account of the application
of a lady at this office for the Magistrate's assist-
ance in recovering a quantity of clothes and linen
which her daughter had taken away.
Mr. Miller, the chief officer, was directed to make
inquiries, and require the attendance of all the par-
ties at the office, which was yesterday accordingly
done.

The investigation was strictly private; but we
are authorised to state, that from the facts which
were elicited it appeared that the whole of the par-
ties were of the highest respec•ability ; that the
mother was rather of a hasty temper, and that the
(laughter, to get away from her, had gone to the
house of a respectable friend, where she intended to
support herself by her own exertions ; and, upon
the advice of Mr. HARDWICK, the mother consented
to let her daughter keep her clothes, and remain
where she was, and thus the affair terminated.

MRS. SHELLEY'S NEW NOVEL, PERKIN
WARBECK.—Every one that is at all conversant with the
History of England must be aware of the claims advanced
by this young adventurer to the throne. It is a remark-
able fact that HENRY VII. in vain endeavoured to disprove
them ; and it is equally certain th tt many of the English,
with:the courts of France and Scotland, believed him to be the
lost Duke of YORK. Be this as it may, the fortunes of this
celebrated individual are deeply interesting—his diversified
adventures in various countries—his alliance with a beau-
tiful and high-born woman—and the mystery that at-
taches to his person, render him well worthy to constitute
the hero of a tale; and its development could scarcely have
fallen into better hands than those of Bits. SitaLtar.

HULL MARKET.--June 22.

There has been a better show of farmers' Wheats this
morning than for several Week's back, and an advance of
2s. per quarter has been realized on the prices of last week.
The holders of foreign are firm, and the late arrivals are
wholly going under lock; for the best parcels of which
50s. per quarter is generally demanded, and buyers not
freely acceding to this price, the business passing is not
extensive; on the best duty-paid parcels an advance of ls.
to 2s. has been submitted to, while. any secondary quality
realizes only an advance of Is.. per quarter. There has
been more inquiry after lock Oats, but on the business
done we note no variation in prices ; but few foreign

and in some instances rather more money given. In

London, England, 1830-04-29

HOUSE OF COMMONS--(LAST NIGHT.)

Mr. PEACH moved the order of the day for the
Committee on Mugkett's Divorce Bill.

Mr. S. RICE took this opportunity to express a
hope, that in consequence of the unanimous feeling
expressed both in and out of doors, when the last
Divorce Bill was before the House, that some
amendment would be effected in the law ; that steps
would be taken to prevent such proceedings in
future; and that some measure would be introduced,
either by his Majesty's Government or by some
Hon. Member of that House, to amend the law of
divorce.

The House then went into Committee on the
Bill. Counsel was heard, and-witnesses were ex-
amined, and the House having resumed, the Bill
was ordered to be read a third time on a future day.
Mr. HUME could not let • that opportunity pass
without expressing his entire concurrence in what
had fallen from the Hon. Member for Limerick.

Dr. PHILLIMORE expressed himself to the
same effect, and gave notice, that unless the subject
should be taken up by his Majesty's Government,
he should upon the 18th of May submit to the
House a proposition for amending the law with re-
gard to Divorce Bills.
Mr. E. DAVENPORT gave notice, • that on
Monday be should present a petition from Birming-
ham, signed by 5,000 persons, praying a reform in
Parliament.

Lord BELGRAVE presented a petition from
Chester, praying for an amendment of the forgery
laws.

Sir G. CLERK presented a petition from Dal-
keit!), against the increase of duty on British spirits.
Lord AUI'HO RP postponed the presentation of
the petition regarding the Insolvent Debtors' Bill
till to-morrow.

Sir JOHN NEWPORT inquired why the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer had not fulfilled his promise
of laying before the House the amended schedule of
stamp-duties, which it was necessary that Hon.
Members should have in their hands before they
were called upon to decide with regard to the pro-
posed measure. He complained that under the pre-
text of consolidation, the new measure went to im-
pose additional taxes, of which no notice had been
given.

Mr. HERRIES said, that full notice had been
given by his Right Hon. Friend with regard to the
imposition of the proposed duties. The Right Hon.
Gentleman stated that the delay in the production
of the amended schedule had arisen from the diffi-
culty of making it out.
Sir J. NEWPORT repeated the assertion, that
the measure did propose new taxes of which no
notice had been given ; for though it had been said
that the Bill would only apply to Ireland, it would
have the effect of imposing new taxes on the United
Kingdom generally,

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
denied the charge preferred by the Right Hon.
Baronet. The amended schedule was in the hands
of the printer, and would be laid before the House
as soon as possible.

After a few words from Dr. PIIILLIMORE and Mr.
HUME, the conversation dropped.
Sir R. WILSON presented a petition from
Northampton, praying for the abolition of the punish-
ment of death in cases of forgery.
Sir J. WROTTEsLEY presented a petition
from Stafford against the Beer Bill.

UNION-HALL.

Yesterday a young man, fashionably attired,
named Michael Pickford, was brought before Mr.
HONE, charged with having assaulted a lady, named
Daniel, under the following circumstances :
The complainant stated, that on the preceding
evening, as she was walking along Blackfriars-road,
accompanied by her sister, the defendant came up,
and rudely caught her by the arm, and commenced
talking a great deal of absurd nonsense, and, amongst
other things, insisted on seeing them home. Com-
plainant told him she was a married woman, and in
order to get rid of his importunities said, that she
expected to meet her husband every moment, adding
that should he find a stranger annoying her, he
would very probably inflict severe chastisement on
him. This caution, however, was of little use, for
the defendant insisted on accompanying them, and
would have been permitted, had he not declared his
determination that the complainant should hold his
arm. She peremptorily refused to do so, upon

A woman named ELIZABETH WENMAg
was brought up to Hatton-garden yesterday morning hi
a police constable, to wkom she had the previous night told
a rambling story of her having drowned her son, a boY'
about eight years old. The Magistrate ordered her to be
locked up for the present, and directed the officer to make
inquiries upon the subject.

EXECUTION AT ROSCONIMON.—On Satur-
day, the 17th instant, EDWARD MORAN was executed in
that town. The life of this unfortunate man was no lees
acmarkable for depravity and crime, than his end for igno-
minions singularity. Our readers will recollect, that on
the 17th of December last, the Rev. Mr. DAY, the curate
of Roscommon, was fuel at by MoßArr. The unfortunate
wretch was found guilty, and sentenced to be executed, and
the announcement of the sentence spread general satisfaction
through the town. The cause of it was, that MORAN had
got five men hanged, and 17 transported, from the gaol Of
Longford, who, it is now believed, were entirely innocent.
A number of other atrocities were attributed to him, and
it was confidently asserted that he intended to implicate
the parish priest of Roscommon in the attempt to assassi-
nate Mr. DAY. The latter story could get no credit, 10
the two Rev. Gentlemen alluded to were most intimate
friends. The exploits of the wretch in Longford were
such as to render him an object of special protection, and,
was allowed to carry fire-arms for his safety. The crowd
who witnessed his execution was immense, and could not
be restrained by clergymen or police from shouting and
yelling when he appeared upon the gallows. lie seemed to
be indifferent about his fate until a day or two before his
execution, when he confessed the enormity of his guilt and
became penitent.--Connaught Journal.
London, England, 1830-04-29

THE ARMY.

We understand that the Colonelcy of the 57th Regi-
ment, vacant by the death of the late Sir Hew Dalrymple,
is to be conferred on Lieutenant-General Sir William
Inglis, K.C.13. This gallant officer commanded that re-
giment on the hard-fought battle of Albuera on the 16th of
May, 1811. The conduct of the regiment (the " Die-
hards," as they are familiarly called in the service), and
of its commander on that memorable day, have so iden-
tified the bravery of both as to give a peculiar interest to
the present appointment. It is a gratifying proof, if proof
were needed, of that feeling for the honour of the service
which influences the disposal of military distinctions; and
it may not be inappropriate here to quote the very words
in which Marshal Lord Beresford speaks of the 57th and
their Colonel:--

major, one captain, three serjeants, one drummer, and
eighty-three rank and file killed ; and one lieutenant.

two ensigns, eleven serjeants, three drummers, and three
hundred and four rank and file wounded.
