allowed to be again introduced or not. He should,
therefore, though very reluctantly, feel it to be his
duty to oppose the motion fur leave to bring in the Bill:
The Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY said he
thought it would be a waste of time to press the Bill for-
ward so soon after the recent discussion.—(Hear, hear.)
He had been a warm supporter of the principle of the
Bill, but he begged the Hon. Member not to press it. this
session, and he was ready to take the responstbaty of
that advice upon himself.—(llear, hear.)
Mr. ANSTEY could not agree in thinking that the
Noble Lord had been a very warm supporter of the :Bill;
on the contrary, he considered the loss of it upon a
former occasion had been owing to the uncertainty of
the course taken by the Noble Lord, which had left his
friends on that side of the House in doubt as to his
movements. He therefore could not accede to that or
to any other hint he might receive from the Noble
Lord —(L-tughter.)
The Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY—The Hon.
Gentleman has arrived et a most monstrous conclusion
with respect to my having caused the lo3s of the Bill.—
(Hear, hear.) But lam not surprised at the tr. tatment
I have received from him when I recollect that. 'which
his supporters received at the close of last session.
Sir G. GREY said that he feared, as the Hon. Ge ntlee
man would not take a hint from the Noble Lord neither
would lie take one from him.—(A laugh.) He would, _how-
ever, be taking a prudent and judicious course if be fol-
lowed the suggestion he had received; for, though he (Sir
G. Grey) had been favourable to the measure, he could
foresee nothing but waste of time, in the present state of
public business, in bringing in the Bill at present, and he
hoped that the Hon. Gentleman would take time to con-
sider whether his doing so would be of advantage to the
object he had in view .—(Divide, divide.)
Lord NUGENT also urged the Hon. Member to
withdraw his motion, but without effect.

The gallery was cleared for a division, when, there
appeared—

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
HULL,FEB.FEB 6.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states that during the
past. week a very good business has been done in most articles
of the trade ; a consumptive demand has taken off a consi-
derable proportion of our best red wheats, and the advance
noted last Tuesday has been fully maintained; in the absence
of foreign supplies, sales are now exclusively from warehouse.
Farmers brought a small supply of wheat for this day's mar-
ket, and demanded a considerable advance upon the terms of
last week ; millers bought pretty freely at about is to 2s per
quarter more money. The show of foreign was small, and
business limited, owing to a further advance being insisted on
by holders. Fine barley continues saleable at late rates, and
grinding goes off in retail at some advance. Beans go off
somewhat better—if of fine dry quality—anything tender is
neglected. Egyptians are saleable at 28s best descriptions.
The sale of peas is quite in retail, and for oats we almost en-
tirely lack buyers. Without arrivals, there is but a small
business in linseed ; the sales from warehouse are without
quotable alteration in price, but the market is firm, and con-
sumption large. For linseed cakes we have experienced a some•
what better sale, at the present low figure, full 31 per ton
below their value this day twelve months. Rapeseed quota-
tions may be regarded as nominal, there being no sales. Rape
cakes are quite as dear. Not much actual business in bones,
but the market firm at 90s, the value of best quality.
