Pour Removal Act f,,,r Iri,land and Scotl,nd. The

Uctiland fvr Let:ward Mend J utn has Loli-
sid,rably improved since our last report, and a rise in price
of 3d to 4d per gallon has taken place. Purchases to a
largo extent have been made, and 3s 5d to as 6d are the
rates paid. East India met with a good demand, and prices
have risen. In Demerara several purchases have been made,
and prices are on the ascendancy. For all kinds of Jamaica
there has been an extensive home demand, whilst exporters
operated with freedom ; prices have risen 34 to 4d per gallon.
Brandy is offered upon further reduced terms, still few con-
tracts have been entered into by exporters or the home trede,
whilst the stock is on the increase ; the deliveries, however,
continue to be satisfactory. Geneva is wanted for exporta-
tion, and prices are higher. Fine for home use in good de-
mand. For British Corn Spirits the demand is very good.
INDIGO.—To-day 921 chests (all second-hand goods) have
passed the sale. During the progress, proprietors have again
withdrawn 438 chests. The few lots of good and fine quality
which passed the sale continued to be in good demand at
about 3d discount on the February sale's prices, whilst the
ordinary and defetive kinds were chiefly bought in at the
prices previously established, viz. from 4d to 6d discount on
the last sale. The quantity bought in to-day is 450 chests.
Otss.—lmporters of Southern Oil submitting to a further
reduction in prices of 20s per tun, occasioned a good demand
to prevail for all qualities, and 109 tuns at auction all found
buyers. Seal met with little attention privately, although
it can be obtained upon further reduced terms. The amount
of business transacted in Cod has been to a small extent
only. With Sperm the market continues to be well supplied.
TALLow.—Prices of Russian suffered no further depres-
sion, but the purchases made on the spot have been trifling
by soap makers and chandler; who took only sufficient for
their immediate wants. Home-made met with a good de-
mand on the spot. There is a plentiful supply. For other
kinds of Tallow prices remain much the same as previously
quoted, but only a limited demand has been experienced.

MPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

The LORD CHANCELLOiIt;Ok his seat upon the wool-
sack at five o'clock.
MESSAGE FROM THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Messengers from the House of Commons brought up
several Bills, which were ordered to lie on the table.
COUNTY BUILDINGS BILL.
This Bill was read a second time.
DRAINAGE OF LANDS BILL.
On the motion of the Earl of ST. GERMANS,
This Bill was read a second time.
FACTORY BILL.
Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from Mac-
clesfield, in favour of the Ten Hours' Bill. Also a peti-
tion from Inverness, against the Police Bill.
Also a petition from the Standing Committees of
the three denominations, the Presbyterians, the Inde-
pendents, and the Baptists of London, against the
Government scheme of education.

printers of L
HEALTH OF TOWNS BILL.
The NOBLE LORD also presented a petition from the
ondon
Bill, and made some observations rospeet to the
exemption of the City from the operation of the Bill.
Lord CAMPBELL said that the tone of the Not)le
, in favour of the Health of Towns
Lord on this, and his tone on the other, side of Temple-
kir was very different.—(Laughter.) There was some-
thing in the atmosphere of this House which induced
the Noble Lord to declaim with respect to the Corpo-
ration of London in terms of censure, and there was
something in the atmosphere of the other side of Temple-
bar to induce him to speak of them in the most eloquent
terms in their praise. —(Much langhter.)
Lord BROUGHAM said that of all the misrepre-
sentations ever uttered by the Noble Lord _(Laughter)
—of all the misstatements ever made even by him—
(Laughter)—this was without exception the farthest
removed from truth.—(Laughter.)
POOR REMOVAL BILL.
The Tart of WICKLOW presented a petition from

any of the eight pine( s named in the Bill.
Lurl FITZ WILLIAM beg g,l to give no!ice, thlit on
the third reading of the Poor Removal (Ireland) Bil!,
he would move a clause to the effect, that this Bill should
be of a temporary character. _
