LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 12, 1837.

The adjourned debate on the Irish Municipal Reform
Bill terminated last night, by a majority in favour of the
third reading, of 55. The Tories mustered in unusual
force on the occasion, there being five more than on the
last division, while the Reformers were twenty less in num-
ber, which accounts for the comparative smallness of the
majority. Had the supporters of Ministers been as much
on the alert as the Opposition, there would have been as
many votes for the third reading of the measure as there
were for the second ; but there has been negligence—gross
negligence—such as must be strictly enquired into. The Re-
form constituencies will do well to consult the printed lists
of division, in order that they may ascertain who were the
representatives that did their duty, and who were they that
rieglected it, on this important occasion. That there are
trimmers in St. Stephen's is beyond a doubt, and it is
absolutely necessary that these men should be made a prompt
example of. _ _

The debate, as a whole, was heavy, which is chiefly to
be attributed to the exertions of Sir JAMES GRAHAM,
whose speech was a long, dull diatribe, unenlivened by the
slightest gleam of fancy or reasoning. The Right Hon.
Baronet stated—as Lord STANLEY did the night be-
fore—that his chief objection to the measure con-
sisted in the injury that it would do to the Established
Church. Everything, he seemed to think, must give
way to this ivestimable Establishment. It must be main-
tained in its present state at all hazards. Reform must
not come near it—must not even have an indirect bearing
upon it. It. was Ireland's greatest blessing—the bow of
Promise hung out in her stormy atmosphere. If the Mu-
nicipal Bill -would leave it as it stood, his great objection
would be removed ; but it would not—therefore, he would
strenuously oppose it. We can conceive no reasoning more

THE FUNDS.

This being settling day in ConsolZ—the brokers and jobbers are
chiefly occupied in settling their accounts, which no doubt will
pass over without any defaulters, as the extreme fluctuation has been
but trifling during the account—only I per cent.
Consols opened at the closing prices of 'yesterday, 90% 3/4 for
Money, and the Account ; Exchequer Bills, 38 40 prem. ; India
Bonds, 37 39 prem. ; Bank Stock, 2041 ; India Stock for open-

Posted at the North and South American Coffee-house :
LIVERPOOL, APRIL I 0.—" I am sorry to say that commercial
matters are still looking very gloomy. We have no tidings as yet
of the New York packets. The steamer sent out four days ago in
search of the packet, returned this forenoon without any news. The
Prince Llewellyn steamer is cruising off Holyhead with orders to
remain until she falls in with the packets.' Commercial men, how-
ever, are confident of receiving assistance from Government on
their present appeal."
We hear that the Talavera has left Lisbon with 400 marines for
the North of Spain.

The settling of the Consol Account is going off well. It is a
Bear Account, and large borrowers of Stock, with a decline of
1-16 per cent.—that is better for Money than for the Account.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Our arrivals this morning are the French mails ; ship-letters
from Calcutta, Dec. 9 (old date); Mauritius, Dec. 24.
Nothing is positively known as yet respecting the Liverpool De-
putation, and the result of their application to the Bank of England
for assistance.

Great anxiety prevails amongst the American merchants for the
arrival of the American packets, as the steamer which sailed from
Liverpool has returned to that port without having succeeded in
falling in with any of the packets.
We understand that the stock of manufactured goods in all the
principal manufacturing districts are small, and when the scarcity
of money is over great activity is again expected to take place. At
Manchester great dullness prevails in commercial affairs, as well as
the discharging of the workmen at Liverpool. The want of credit
is great, as well as a great difficulty in obtaining discounts,
which has reduced the value of raw cotton from 30 to SO per cent.
In the northern districts the stocks on hand were low, and there
was no disposition on the part of the manufacturers to purchase
wool. It is stated that if no alteration take place, upwards of ten
thousand workmen will be out of employ. The private bankers in
Rochdale and other places had found it necessary to increase their
issues, while the joint-stock banks were diminishing their circu-
lation.

WHEAT AND FLOUR IN PARIS, COMPARED
WITH LONDON.

WHEAT. —The highest price of the best Wheat in Paris is
23f. per 11 hectolitre, which is equal to 355. 3d. per Eng-
lish quarter. The highest price of the best Essex and Kent
Wheat in London being 665. per quarter, the difference is
30s. 9d. per quarter dearer in London than in Paris, or 874 pot
cent. and the same money which in London buys but eight
bushels of Wheat, is in Paris the value of fifteen bushels of
the finest quality.
FLOUR.—The highest price of flour of the "first mark" in
Paris is 47 francs per 159 kilogrammes, corresponding with
295. Bd. per English sack of WBOlbs. The highest price of the
best " town made" flour in London is 555. per sack, showing
fine Flour to be 255. 4d. per sack dearer in London than in
Paris, or 85i- per cent. ; and that the 555. which in London
can procure but 2801b5., will in Paris purchase 5191b5. of the
finest Flour.

The seasonable rain which has at length arrived,
will, it is to be hoped, give the long-wished-for spur to re-
tarded vegetation.

Madrid Journals of the 13th inst. have reached us.
They are meagre of all important intelligence. In
the Cortes, fifteen articles of the Constitution have
been adopted by large majorities ; but we hear of no
grand and decisive effort on the part of the Deputies
to put an end to the civil war. They are fine theorists;
but they shrink from grappling with a tangible cala-
mity, that with giant strides desolates their country.

Brussels and German Papers have been received.
The latter bring advices from Constantinople to the
29th of March inclusive. They state that the Eng-
lish residents in that capital earnestly desire the recall
of Lord PONSONBY, who is no longer popular with
the Turks, the Russians, or his own countrymen.
They likewise complain of the great decline which
continues to be felt in the current value of Turkish coin.
The Archduke Palatine of HUNGARY was consider-
ably better or: the 12th inst., but the hopes entertained
of his recovery are faint indeed.

The Brussels papers bring no news of any interest.
In the Chamber of Representatives nothing has been
discussed for many days but a project of law for the
regulation of the Customs' tariff. The members cf
the Royal Family are in good health.

All the Reports of Commissioners were in favour of such
a measure as the present—several Bills having the same
object in view had been proposed, but they had fallen to the
ground, in consequence of the provisions leaving too much to
the landowners—the provisions of this Bill were to the effect
that Commissioners should be appoinied by the Lord-
Lieutenant in council to examine and report how far, and
where, works could be undertaken, and how far the lands
should be chargeable on account of them. Some objections
would, and indeed had, been made to this Bill, ou
the ground that too much power was given by it to the
Commissioners—but he was not of this opinion, and
he had no doubt that many valuable works would be
undertaken if the Bill became a law.—(Hear, hear.) The
present measure was one relating to Ireland, which he
thought might be discussed without reference to party
feelings.—( Hear, hear.) The Bill might, in some degree,
be said to be connected with another measure lately
introduced into the other House. However, it appeared
to him that Government and Parliament were determined
that some decisive steps should be taken for the ame-
lioration of the poor of Ireland, and he thought that
the appointment of Commissioners to inquire into the state
of the poor was a wise step.

1 COURT OF KING'S BENCH.—APRIL 22.
• THE KING V. THE STEWARDS OF GATESHEAD.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL showed cat.c against a rule
for a mandamus, requiring the defendants to dcliter up cer•
ton books, accounts, an other thitKs alleged to be the
property of the corporation of Gateshead. Tie ansaei
was that the borough of Gateshead never bad poss'ssed a
corporation till the Municipal Reform Act, and conse-
quently there was no corporat,l body on which the present
corporation had a right to make a call of this sort. The
Court. thinking that there had not been formerly a corpo-
ration in Gateshead, discharged the rule.
THE KING V. RICKETTS.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was heard in Clawing, cause
against a rule for quashing certain writs de contain:tee
capiendo issued against the defendant for non-payment of
rates. The objections to the writs depended on the alleged
departure from the form given in the Act as to the descrip-
tion of the sheriff who was to execute them, and the Judge
by whom they had been ordered. The Court postponed
the decision of the case till another rule arising out of the
same proceedings should have been argued.

BAIL COURT.--FRIDAY.
MARGOTSON V. TRUGGHE. •
Mr. CHILTON appeared for the plaintiff: It was an ac-
tion to recover the sum of 80/. Mr. Margotson, the plain-
tiff, a leather merchant by trade, while on a trip to Paris,
thinking that he would combine business with pleasure, gave
to the defendant, Monsieur Trugghe, a cormn'sson agent,
an order for goods, which, to the amount of 80/., were to
-be sent over to England. The money was paid on the
spot, but the goods did not make their appearance. The
plaintiff then put the affair into the hands of another French-
man, whose miscellaneous avocations as a " general dealer"
came under the same non-description as that 'of the de-
' f:.ndant himself. All that Monsieur could :get out of
Monsieur Trugghe was an indirect admission of the debt,
as well as of his having since appropriated the money to his
own use. When asked to write to the plaintiff he objected,
saying, " I am a bankrupt, and I should not like Monsieur
Margotson to prevent my creditors agreeing with we. If
I write him a letter I shall commit myself, for we in France
think a letter from the debtor to the creditor a strong proofL'
of the debt being due." Mr. Margotson, the plaintiff,
had, therefore, now no resource but to proceed against
Monsieur Trukghe in an English Court cf Law for the
amount paid to him ; but the defendant did not appear.—
The Jury found for the plaintiff.

ment of the revenues due to the: Government. The
immediate consequence of this order was the with-
drawal of a large amount of specie from circulation,
which the banks sought to remody by expanding their
issues. Next followed the account of a large surplus
in the public revenue, and this gave a new impulse to
the ruinous spirit of speculation and competition:which
prevailed among Improvement Companies of all deno-
minations. In the mean time it was not perceived
that the Treasury was gradualtly absorbing the gold and
the silver, and that most of the large commercial
houses, when straitened for money, had recourse to
extra issues of paper, or to the employment of a credit
forced upon them by their correspondents in Europe.
Fortunately the evil was discovered before it had in-
volved in a common ruin the commercial interests or,
the Republic. The timely interference of the IL) nited
States' Bank, whose credit is undiminished., will go
a great way towards setting all right agai',), There
will be, of course, many failures, and ',wavy losses
must be sustained by numbers of enter-prising and in-
dustrious individuals, in consequene:e of the rapid fall
in the price of all joint-stock ; but the check
thus given to extravagant speculation will produce a
good effect on the habits of American commercialists.
Once rid of his present diffic'ilties, Brother Jonathan
will be more careful in prov;iding for the payment of
his creditors at a moment's notice. Taking pattern by
the wary old EX-PRESIDENT, he will in future balance
his ledger with a more universally-recognised represen-
tative of wealth than railroad, canal, and waste-land
share tickets.

The intelligence which has: arrived from America
since our 1 ast publication is calculated to expel much
of the gloom which overhangs our commercial prospects.
There never was, we bel:leve, a period of greater
pressure among the mercal ,tile and trading classes, nor
of greater anx icty as tr-1 the future, than the last three

months has been. "-A.'he cause of this distress is to be
found in the gen...l-al want of confidence on the part
of those who possess capital. There seems to be
a belief, w ell or ill founded, among this class of per-
sons, tlaat there is not gold enough in the country

THE MARKETS---('TIE DAY )

CORN EXCHANGE.

In the past week the arrivals cf Wheat, Barley, Beans, and
Pease were moderate ; of Oats, chiefly from Ireland, consi-
derable, and of Flour good. The weather continued cold,
and prices of every article were firmly maintained. Tbis
morning the fresh supplies of Grain in general were moderate,
but the weather having undergone a very favourable change,
the market has become extremely dull. Wheat of the best
quality has declined Is., and other sorts 2s. per quarter, from
the prices of this day sennight. Barley of all descriptions is
Is. per quarter lower. Beans and Pease are difficult to sell,
and are each reduced Is. per quarter. The trade for Oats
has been slack to-day, and to effect sales a decline of is. per
quarter has been submitted to. The Flour trade remains very
dull, and with great difficulty maintains its late currency. The
farmers report that since the late rains the crops have shown
an evident improvement.

CHANCEItY COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

e.
The Loan CHANCELLoi-i gd e ii4,l4i-nedt this morning in this
cast!, which was a inothm for the new of an ilstie tried
before Mr. iron Cr:Jr:ley, at Exeter, for the purpose of as-
to;etlik,:r 111711in'; Is,tacs was ill? legitimate son
of .Joseph hazes. The verdiCi ci the ,Tory was ‘‘gainst the
legitimacy, and the application for the new rf;ig made
upon three ground,;—first, that the verdict was against CTi-
dence ; second, that the Jury had not been properly directed ;
and thirdly', upon
.the ground of surprise. His Lordship,
Aer going at ;fonsiderable length into the evidence on both
:ides, stated that T±e Was Clearly of opinion the evidence prc-
pondera'ed against the legitittirtcy, and he should therefore
dismiss the application for a new ttltli with costs.
Lordship could not, however, part with tivi t.'::!v without
obseiWirig str-,nf!ly upon the conduct of some of the pr*,;:,
who by fraud, forvry, pflory, and conspiracy, bad obtained
out of Court no less a sum than 56,600/., to which they were
not entitled. Under these circumstances, his Lordship felt it
to be his cl:sty to direct all the papers in the case to be laid
fore the Attorney-General, as the public prosecutor, in order
that he might adopt that course with rel)ect to the parties
who had been guilty of such gross conduct ho thought jus-
Cce repaired.

LIVERPOOL-WEDNESDAY.

The sales of cotton to-day amount to 2,500 bags. The
market is dull, and prices arc hd. lower than at the close of
the last week. This depression may be attributed chiefly
to the extremely heavy imports since Monday. During,
the last two or three days at least 50.000 bags have come
to hand. Besides American, from to 71d., the sales
consist 01200 Pcrnam, Bd. to 98d. ; 50Bahia, 6d. ; and
100 Surat, aid. .
This day has not passed over without the failure of a
large and respectable house in the American trade, whose
stoppage has excited a feeling of surprise as well as regret.
The house in question—the principal partner in which is
a member of the Town Council, and possesses the reputation
of being one of the most clear-headed men of business in
Liverpool—has for some time past been drawing its imports
from the United States within a comparatively narrow
compass, in anticipation of the commercial crisis which has
unhappily overtaken us. But, while restrictity, its imports
from America, the house has been speculating largly in the
purchase of corn both in this country and on the Continent,
a considerable portion of w hich has been shipped to the
United States ; and from the unfavourable turn which
everything has taken in America arises its present tempo-
rary embarrassment and stoppage. The stoppage is, how-
ever, merely temporary, for the affairs of the house present a
very encouraging aspect

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
There have been this week several supplies of Grain and
Flour. The weather continuing exiremely favourable, causes
our buyers to purchase very sparingly. The Wheat trade re-
mains in the same state as reported on Monday. Barley,
Beans, and Pease are unvaried. The Oat trade is slack this
week, at no alteration in value. Flour meets a heavy sale, as
the bakers are now unwilling to increase their stocks.

FINE ARTS.

THE FALL OF NAPOLEON.
111‘Cormick, London, 1837.
This is a very clever production, and full of charac-
ter. An English soldier having (very excusably) got
drunk on the Anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, is
represented as in the act of running up against a poor
Italian image-vender, who carries on his head a small
effigy of Napoleon in plaster of Paris. By the force of
the concussion the Emperor is of course hurled to the
ground infinitely to the annoyance of the Italian, whose
countenance teems with an expression of tribulation and
Perplexity. The drunken air of the soldier, his silly,
Icomplacent simper, and loose shambling gait, arc ex-
ceedingly well hit off.

TABLEAUX FROM CRICHTON.
Macrone, London, 1837.
A very handsome and carefully executed work, con-
sisting of twelve plates, designed and etched by Frank-
lin, illustrative of the most remarkable scenes in Mr.
Ainsworth's late popular novel of " Crichton." As
outline engravings, they are worthy to vie with
Howard's well-known illustrations of Shakspeaie.

(u. cif place, that we consider it both our policy
--Ad duty to be " iw,tant in season and out of season."
CIL! same provincial papers yesterday which brought
us detailed accounts of the hustle of preparation,
o:ought accounts also of 'the increasin,(,, vigilance and
mirer.,,itting exertions of the Tories. They feel it is
their last b%tt!e, and they arc resolved to fight it in the
ast ditch. They are imbued with the energy supplied
'hy desperation, and when baited to their last stand,
Aley will " die with harness on their backs." The peo •
pie must be prepared for this, and must exert them-
selves accordingly. The last death agonies of the great
llydras of abuse will be accompanied with the most
venemous effoits, and most convulsive contortions. To
itrangle them effectually will require indeed the gripe
,f a Hercules. The (lemon of antiquated j rhbing will
lot loose hold of its long-accumulated plunder till
the knife is at its throat. Why do we tell the people
;his? To dispirit them? No. To stimulate them to
imely exertion—to enforce upon them the necessity of
lmaking an exertion adequate to the unusual demands of
tn unusual crisis. The friends of liberty must come to
ithe contest " with all their heart, with all their soul,

Ind with all their strength." And it is well that it is
;o. There is a clu•cring alacrity in its very announce-
ment, which ought to 'brace the feeblest nerves, and
stimulate the puniest spirit. The coming dissolution
and election are, in reality, a happy " God-send" to all
political men who have heads to think or hearts to feel.
