Mr. COWAN presented a petition signed by 122
ladies of Edinburgh, married and single, which stated
that on entering into the marriage state as the law at
present stood they passed " from freedom into slavery,"
and they prayed that some alteration might take place
in the present law, so that their own earnings might be
protected and secured to them.
THE ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.

Mr. HAYTER moved that the house at its rising do
adjourn till 2 o'clock to-morrow.

The SPEAKER, in answer to questions from hon.
members, explained that the house adjourned each day
till half-past 10 o'clock the following day, and was sup-
posed to sit there, which enabled committees to sit when
the house was up. The object of the motion was to
prevent committees sitting to-morrow (Ascension-day)
before two o'clock. • e

Subsequently the motion was withdrawn, and"the
motion of Mr. FITZ ROY, that no committee sit to•mor-
row, was carried.

The house will therefore meet tomorrow at the usual
hour.

NEW WRIT.

On the motion of Mr. HAYTER, a new writ was
ordered for the county of Longford, in the room of Mr.
R. M. Fox, deceased.
DWELLINGS FOR LABOURING CLASSES
(IRELAND) BILL.

On the motion for going into committee on this bill,
Mr. BRADY opposed it on the ground that the prin-
ciple of the bill had not been discussed, and he moved
that it be committed that day six months.
Mr. KENNEDY seconded the motion.

Sir W. SOSIEIWILLE, who introduced the bill,
supported the motion for going into committee, ano, in
doing so, he said that the present dwellings of the Irish
poor were a disgrace to a civilised nation. (Hear hear.)
He was at a loss to understand why he had met with so
much opposition to this bill from Irish members. He
had introduced it with a view of improving the dwel-
lings of the Irish poor, which had been described by a
traveller as being in many instances worse than the
wigwams of Indians. (Hear, hear.)

,
Lord BERNARD was in favour of the house
going into committee on the bill, which had been intro-
duced to remedy an acknowledged evil at present existing
in Ireland. The architect of the Dublin Exhibition had
stated that one-tenth of the houses in Cork were unfit
for habitation.

Sir D. NORREYS said that the bill was not open to
the charge of being an exceptionable measure, because
there was a similar one in force in England. This bill
was calculated to give great benefit to Ireland.

Despatch from General Sir W. Codrington

(From the Gazette of last Evening.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, APRIL 29.

Lord Panmure has received a despatch and its en-
closure, of which the following' are copies, addressed to
his Lordship by General Sir NVm. Codrington, K.C.B.
Sebastopol, April 15.
My Lord,—l have the honour to transmit herewith, for
your Lordship's 'information, the weekly report of Sir
John Hall.—l have, &c.,

W. J. COD- RINGTON, General Commanding,
The Lord Panmare, &c.

Enclosure.
Head-Quarters, Camp, Crimea, April 15.
Sir,—Tha sanitary condition of the army continues
highly satisfactory, and there has been a decrease in both
the mortality and number of sick this 'week.
Since the furious snow storm of the 3d instant the wea-
ther has bees gradually getting milder, and now nothing
could be more delightful than it is.
This favourable change in the weather has been marked
by a decrease of chest affections, and a slight increase of
febrile complaints, but none of them of any-great severity,
except in the Land Transport Corps, where typhoid fever
still preimils, and four oat of the fatal eases of fever which
occurred took place in the Land Transport Corps alone.
'Five were from fever ,•
Tfro from apoplexy, the direct effects of drunkenness;
Five from affections of the lungs ;
Two from chronic bowel complaints ;
One, a sudden death, from th,3 bursting an aneurism of
the aorta ; and
One from ',he results of an injury of the head received
in a drunken brawl six weeks ago.
So that only twelve out of the sixteen are fairly attri-
butable to disease.
The ratio of admissions to strength this week has been
I'Bl per cent. ; deaths, to strength, 0.02 ditto ; sick, to
well, 3'87 ditto.
Taking the whole force, the admissions to strength in
all the hospitals, both general and regimental, have only
been per cent. Deaths, to strength, 0.03 per cent.
sick, to well, 5.34 ditto.—l have, &c..
J. HALL,
Inspector-General of Hospitals.
Gen. Sir Wm. J. Codrington, K.C.8.,
Commanding-in-Chief.

MARKET ATE ;BPS.--(This Day.)

CORN EXCFIANGE.

The supply of English wheat in to-day's market was
very moderate. For all kinds we had a steady demand,
and Monday's prices were fully supported. The business
doing, however, was limited.
There was a fair inquiry for foreign wheat, the supply
of which was good, at very full prices.
Floating cargoes of grain were held for more money.
Barley and malt changed hands freely, and late rates
were well supported.
There was a fair demand for oats, at full quotations.
Beans and peas were inactive ; but flour was firm, and
quite as dear as on Monday.

BANKING DISCLOSURES.—Sorae more banking dis-
closures, perfectly harmonious in their degree with
those of Strahan, Paul, and Co., the Aberdeen Bank,
the Tipperary Joint-Stock Bank, the Westminster Im-
provement Commission, and the other cases of the kind
by which the past two years have been distinguished,
have just been furnished during an examination in the
Birmingham Bankruptcy Court of the surviving partner
of the Lichfield Bank, which suspended at the com-
mencement of the present year. The establishment
was in the name of Messrs. Palmer and Greene, and
it enjoyed the privilege of issuing notes to the amount
of 22,786/. Mr. Palmer died in 1850, and the Bank
had since been conducted by Mr. Greene. In his
examination Mr. Greene admitted that the firm had
been carried on with a gradually increasing deficit for
about 30 years. His partner, Mr. Palmer, at his
death owed the concern 45,7871., and an estimate of
its position at that time showed a deficiency of
' 62,5701. Nevertheless the business was, kept up as
usual, and would not have been disturbed at last but
for the discretion of Messrs. Smith, Payne. and Smiths,
who refused to make advances. From 1850 to the 31st
of December, 1855, Mr. Greene maintained his personal
expenditure at the rate of 2,6501. a year—an attempted
reduction having been discontinued lest it should excite
suspicion, and thus put a stop to the power of expendi-
ture altogether. Here was a deliberate system of living
on property held in trust ; yet the law provides no penalty
for it. In the same way, the parties to the delinquen-
cies of John Sadleir in the Tipperary Bank are likely to
avoid all inconvenience. In the case of the Westminster
Improvement Commis-ion and the Aberdeen Bank the
creditors are openly defied, and the same system pre-
vails in a multitude of minor instances that daily occur.
Under these circumstances the conclusion must be, either
that Sir John Paul was a martyr, or that the scope of
the criminal law should be greatly extended.
