PRICE OF BREAD.

Mr. BANKES called attention to a petition from the
Rev. H. F. Yeatman, which had been printed with the
votes, relative to the sale of bread, and contended that
the public were not sufficiently protected, either with re.
ference to the weight or price of the first necessary of
life. He should have submitted a motion to the House
on the subject if he could have seen an opportunity of
doing so with a chance of being able to carry it. (The
Hon. Gentlemen then went into the allegations of the
petition. He also moved for a Select Committe to in-
quire
into the fact stated in the petition.)
Sir D. L. EVANS said, what the Hon. Gentleman
seemed to want was a summary jurisdiction with respect
to bakers, and he did not think that such was required
fur them more than any other trade.
Mr. G. HEATHCOTE thought they could not do
better during the last moments of the session than to di-
rect the attention of the public to -some means for se-
curing to the people of the metropolis a loaf at full
weight and at a fair price.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL did not think that any
reason had been assigned to justify an alteration of the
law respecting the weight and price of bread.
Mr. HUME was about to put a question to the Noble
Lord the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs respect-
ing the late events in China, when
BANKES, amidst much laughter, said he intended
to divide the House. (It was now a quarter past two,
and it was known that the Queen had arrived.)
Lord PALMERSTON said that it would be casting
ridicule on the House if, in the last moments, not merely
of a session, but of a Parliament, they were to divide on
a motion for the appointment of a Committee to inquire
into a complicated point of political economy, applied to
' the daily transactions of life.—(Hear, hear.) That the
messenger whom they might shortly expect should find
them in the lobby instead of finding them in the House
would be a proceeding too like a set of school-boys, and
one which he hoped the House would not sanction.
The House was then summoned by the Usher of the
Black Rod to attend at the bar of the House of Lords,
to hear her Majesty deliver her most gracious speech on
the prorogation of Parliament, and the Speaker, accom-
panied by the greater part of the Members present, pro-
ceeded to the bar of the House of Lords accordingly.

The SPEAKER having returned to the House, read the
Speech from the Chair, and thus was the business of
this, the most important Parliament ever assembled since
the passing of the Reform Bill, brought to a close.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-(FRIDAY.)
The arrivals of English Wheat for our market since
Monday, coastwise as well as by land cars iage and sam-
ple, have been on a very moderate scale, and the show
of samples of that grain here was small. On the
whole, the trade was firm, but no improvement
was noticed in the quotations. Nearly 30,000
quarters of Foreign Wheat have come to hand
this week, in, for the most part, middling condition.
The best parcels moved off steadily at full prices, but all
other kinds were quite neglected. Although the supply
of barley was small the trade was in a very sluggish
state, at unaltered currencies. Malt ready for delivery
sold in retail at full prices. The Oat trade, owing to
the large imports from abroad, was in a sluggish state,
at unaltered figures. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and
Flour, as last advised.

The supply of Beasts on offer here was moderate as to
number, and very deficient in quality. The primest
Scots,
Devons, &c., sold readily, at prices fully equal to
those obtained on Monday, but the inferior kinds of
Beef were a mere drug though we cannot call them
cheaper. There were in the market 22 Oxen from
Spain, 362 Oxen and Cows 1,510 Sheep and Lambs,
and 248 Calves from Cows,
and Germany.
With Sheep we
were but moderately. supplied, while
the Mutton trade was firm, and late rates were steadily
supported. The number of Lambs was good, yet the
sale for that stock was somewhat active, at very full
prices. Notwithstanding the supply of Calves was great,

WEST INDIA COLONIES.

Lord G. BENTINCK gave notice that it was Lis
intention, at an early period of the ensuing session,
to move for a Select Committee to inquire into the con-
dition and prospects of the West India Colonies, with
respect to its ability to compete with slave-holding
countries in the producticn of sugar.
The House was then summoned by the Usher of the
Black Rod to attend at the bar of the House of Lords,
to hear her Majesty deliver her most gracious speech on
the prorogation of Parliament, and the Speaker, accom-
panied by the greater part of the Members present, pro-
ceeded to the bar of the House of Lords accordingly.
The SPEAKER having returned to the House, read the
Speech from the Chair, and thus was the business of
this, the most important Parliament ever assembled since
the passing of the Reform Bill, brought to a close.

LONDON, FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1847.

DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT.
Summonses were issued yesterday afternoon from
the Privy Council Office to all the Cabinet Ministers
to attend a Privy Council this afternoon at half-past
three o'clock, at Buckingham Palace.
At the Council a proclamation will be issued dis-
solving the present Parliament, and summoning a
new one.

On the dissolution of the present Parliament let it
not be forgotten that it has been a glorious and event-
ful Parliament. The prorogation is known to be
merely the immediate antecedent or precursor of the
dissolution. In her AIAJESTY'S most gracious Speech
from the Throne this morning, the dismissal of her
faithful Commons has been virtually pronounced.
Therefore it is that we conceive ourselves justified in
speaking of the Parliament which has watched over
the destinies of the British Empire during six pro-
NETvtitatesi ,:e46ons, from 1841 to 1847 inclusively, as
aralv*-Wings that are departed. Great e
hive`octitirAduring its existence, ev vents
ents such as
must render the reign of VICT‘ORIA not the least re-
markable in the aniTals of:England. Moral revolu-
c,,,- lions have been effected of such a character as to have
sdasllr reorganised the condition of society, and yet
