CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
a The markets for foreign and colonial produce
during the past few days bare exhibited rather
more activity, and several of the leading staples
have been dealt in at improved rates. Tea, how-
ever, has been dull, most of the dealers anxiously
awaiting advices by the Overland Mail.
Sugar has been in good demand, and the
better descriptions of British West India,
fit for li-rt e use, have realised improved
v‘dues. For coffee there has becn a steady de-
mand, but rice, rum, and cocoa have been exceed-
ingly quiet. The public sales of wool continue to
progress very satisfactorily, the advance of ld. per
lb. realised at the commencement of the series being
fully supported for most qualities. The public
sales of indigo, which commenced on the 13th inst.,
concluded yesterday ; the quantity sold was about
6,500 chests, of which 1,000 were for home use, and
the remainder takenfor export. The biddings through-
out were animated, and an advance of about 4d. to
Bd. per lb. was realised compared with those at the
clole of the previous sales. For saltpetre there was
a very limited inquiry, and tallow has been dull.
?X C. is now quoted 48s. to 483. 3d. for spot, and
also for the last three months' delivery.
The Liverpool Cott 'n Market yesterday closed
steadily,
and previous values were fully maintained.
The sales were estimated at 7,000 bales, 1,000 of
which were taken for speculation, and 500 by the
exporters. In Railway Shares only a limited busi-
ness was transacted, but quotations were rather
firmer.

There is no alteration to report either in moue-
tall' affairs or in the movements of bullion. With
regard to the former, we can merely repeat that for
the, moment the inquiry continues too limited to
disturb the quotations lately established. These
are as low as could be desired, and all who are
engaged in mercantile enterprise, and possessing
good credit, can obtain unusual facilities for the
active prosecution of business.
The efflux of specie has temporarily ceased, and
the increased firmness of the exchanges has led to
the impression that it will not be immediately re-
sumed.

The half-yearly meeting of the National Discount
Company took place to-day ; Mr. Russell, M.P.,
in the chair. The dividend proposed was at the
=ate of 5 per cent, per annum. There was a dis-
posable balance of 19,6911. 17s. Id. for the half-
Year's profits, out of which this dividend would be
taken, and the balance carried to the reserve fund,
whie'h 'would then amount to 14,5371. 10s. The
report was adopted unanimously.
A 'discussion has been aroused in reference to the
recent decision of the Stock Exchange Committee
to allow bargains in the Uribarren Bonds of Peru
to he officially quoted. Those who object state
that these securities represent a portion of the in-
ternal debt of the Republic, and as such ought not
to be placed on the same footing as those negotiated
In England. There appears to be some ground for
this remonstrance, but the committee are not likely
again to rescind their resolution.
The English Funds have been firmer to-day, and
several transactions have been recorded at an ad-
ance of per cent. A favourable influence has
been produced by the news from the East, but
there is evidently an upward tendency in conse-
quence of purchases for investment, and s;milar
°Perations on speculative account. Notwithstand-
ing this, however, the market cannot be called
active, as the transactions are still confined within
moderate limits. Consols have been 951 for
34°ReY, and 951 96 for account. The New Threes
are, 961 1 ; the Reduced, 961 ; Long Annuities,
4i ; Exchequer Bills, March, 355. to 375. ; June,
235. to 265. prem. ; ditto, Bonds, 101 ; India
ditto, 1.53. prem. ; ditto Loan Debentures, 991 ;
and ditto Stock is 217 219.
Foreign Securities continue active, and prices
have slightly advanced. Turkish 6 per Cents. are
951 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 431 ; ditto Deferred,
271 ; Sardinian 5 per Cents., 90 91 ; Chilian 6

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(This Day.)
The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.

PRIVAT ruzi:cL6S.

Tho :;:nLatissieutl to the following hills were
cou6ieered and agreed to :—Middlesborough Improve-
ment, Plymouth Great Western Docks, Tees Conser-
vancy, and Woic2ster and Hereford Railway.
The following bills were read a third time and passed :
—Davidson's E6tato, and G;aFigow Calege Estwe.

CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION ACT

CONTINUANCE BILL,

The adjourned debate on the clause proposed by Mr.
VANSITTART was renewed. The clause was "That it
shall not be lawful for the collector of rates and taxes
of any borough, county, or city, or his partner, or
agent, to act as [Tent, clerk, or canvasser for, or to be
employed on behalf of, any candidate for such borough,
county, or city, and any such person who shall offend
shall for his said offence be liable to forfeit the sum of
50/. to any person who shall sue for the same, together
with full costs of suit."

Mr. BASS apoka in opposition, and to the hill
generally.

Mr. P. O'BRIEN thought that nothing could be
m3re objectionable than the practice of a tax collector,
with his rata book in his band, walkinz into a voter's
house to solicit his vote in aid of any particular candi-
date. He hoped the hon. member for Windsor (Mr.
Vansittart) would press his motion.

Mr. WALPOLE thought this clause would raise ques-
tion upon question as to psrsons qualified to act as
agents. He should be happy to comiichr the question
as applicable to general law, but he thought the principle
ought cot to be affirmed in the present
Sir F. SMITH thought the clan is would be a trap for
the honest man, and that it would servo no other pur-
pose.

- Mr. ROEBUCK said the Home Secretary seemed to
think that this was not a proper time f r the revision of
the electoral law. He (qr. Roebuck) admitted that,
and hoped the Home Secretary would apply that remark
to his own bill.

23,

Mr. WARREN opposed the clause.
Mr. GREEK said that collectors of rates and taxes
had a great influence in reference to the registration of
voters ; and in Belfast that influnce had been exercised
in a most extraordinary degree. In any district the
collectors of taxes might abstain from eelling upon
voters for their, taxes until after the time when they
should be paid to enable them to vote, and thus persons
really solvent, and wiling to pay their rates when asked
for them, found thethselves disfranchised when- the
revising barrister came round.
Mr. JOHN LOCKE said the clause singled out one
particular class of persons, but tax collectors were not
the only persons who had an undue influence over
electors. Let them take, for example, the steward
of a nobleman who had a large estate, and who could
knock off 10 or 15 per cent. if it would in any way
suit his employer's purpose. The tax collector was a
public servant, and any candidate might avail himself
of his services. The tax collector could not remit
taxes, and it was not to his interest to remit them, but
the steward of an estate could remit any amount his
employer might choose to allow. The clause aimed
at one partioular class of individuals, while they knew
that there were hundreds of others who were equally open
to obj,cton. He objected to legislation of this piece-
meal kind being introduced into the bill, which he con-
sidered should bo merely a continuance bill.

Mr. M`CANN objected to the tax gatherers being
agents. They had great influence over the register of
votes, and had not failed to exercise it very extensively
in Ireland. He knew many persons who had been dis-
francaised by the tricks and chicaneries of theca men.
Mr. BAINES thought extraneous matter should not
be introduced, although he admitted he was favourable
to the principle of the clause. This was a wel!,lefined
and understood species of influence upon which eventu-
ally they might legislate, but ho thought this should
be a continuance bill. If the clause were passed at all.
he thought it should be amended, so as to include all
collectors " within" any bcin.ugh, &c , instead "of "
any borough, Leo.
Mr. B. CARTER opposed the clause, on the ground
that the bill should be a mere continuance bill.
Mr. BYNG considered that the clause coptained a
very sound principle, and he should vote for it, subject
to the amendment of the right hon. gentleman the mem
tier for Los& (elr. Baines).

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(his Day.)

Mr. HUGGESSON did not like homesvathio doses
of reform, and opposed the clause.
Mr. CRAUFURD thought it unreasonable that a
bill d this kind should have been introduced at this late
period of the session, and that they were wasting time in
discussing it. He should vote against the clause, because
he desired that the bill should be a merely cJntinuance
bill. He wished they would take an txample from Soot-
land, where there was no such absurd regulation that a
man should pay his taxes before he was cinalfied to vote
(Rear, hear, and laughter.) He objected to the clause
for :Inca er reason, that they ought not in such a case to
pick out one Owe of society rather than another. If they
excluded tax collectors, they should exclude solicitors
and members of the legal profession from being agents,
for he held that they were a much more dangerous class
in this respect than tax collectors. He said that in
his capacity of a member of the legal profession himself.
Mr. VANSITART said be should be happy to avail
himself of the amendments which had been suggested.
The house then divided on the amendment clause, and
the numbers were—
For the clause
Against it ... 66
Mtj wity —l3

The clause was negatived.
Mr. D. NICOLL hoped that after the narrow escape
of defeat which the Government had had they would de-
clare now that this was simply a continuance bill. He
had stood three sharply contested elections, one of
which be lost by only one vote, and he knew
therefore the temptations to which poor voters
were exposed. He moved the f,.llowing clause :
" Every candidate at any election for any county, city,
or borough, shall be required to make and sign the fol-
lowing statutory declaration, and present, or cause to
be presented, a copy f such declaration to the Election
Auditor on or before the day appointed for the audit of
bills, charges, or claims. "I, (A. B.) a candidate at
the election of ( ) to represent the (
in Parliament, do hereby solemnly an,l sincerely declare
that I. have not knowingly made, authorised, or sanc-
tioned, and that I will not knowingly make, authorise,
or sanction any payment. or make any gift of money,
or other valuable consideration, directly or indirectly,
by way of private gratuity to any solicitor, agent,
or canvasser acting for me on account of the said elec-
tion, otherwise than is described by the bills, charges,
and claims rendered to the erection auditor, save as
excepted and allowed by the Corrupt Practices Preven-
tion Act, 1854.

Mr. WALPOLE objected to the clause. It might
be inserted in a permanent bill which could not bedelayed
beyond next sesion. The pieseut was nothing more
than a continuance bill.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS did not think the clause would
carry out the object it proposed to have in view.
Mr. P. O'BRIEN thought that all legislation in re-
ference to corrupt practices at elections was a delusion.
Mr. CR AATFURD opposed the clause.
Mr. T. DUNCOM BE asked the Government to with-
draw the bill. The maj .rity of the House was
against it. (Rear, hear, and no, no.)
Mr. WALPOLE said if the majority of the House
were against the bill be would withdraw it and intro-
duce a continuance bill to-morrow. (Rear, hear, and
nb, no.)

..ii? LORDS.

SIR 110SES MONTEFIORE V. BROWNII

After some remarks from Mr. ROEBUCK,
The House divided. The numbers were—
For the clause
Against it B3
Majority
The clause was therefore negatived.
Mr. GREER moved the addition of a clause for in-
creasing the number of polling places, and for altering
the polling districts in Ireland.
Lord NAAS opposed the Cause. In the first place
It was nut of place, it was out of order on the considera-
tion of this bill ; and, secondly, the law at present per-
mitted the extension ofpolling places in Ireland.
Mr. WHITE supported the clause to protract the
debate, and with a desire to prevent the bill being
carried. He informed her MajeAy's Government
there • were a certain numbEr of members who
intended to oppose the bill on every point
other than as a continuance bill. The bill was wrongly
named. It should be called the Corrupt Practices
Protection Bill. (Laughter.)
Mr. P. O'BRIEN opposed the clause.
[LEFT SPEAKING.]

Tin further heating of this iwportant appeal was ap-
pointed to be hear,l this morning, at half-past 10 o'clock.
The Attcrney-Generrl (Sir Fi zroy Kelly, Q.C.) was
heard in reply for the appellantP.

FIRE IN THE BRIXTON-ROAD. —SIX COWS BURNED TO
DEATH.—Yesterday afternoon, between two and three
o'clock, a fire broke out in the promises of Mr. William
Towler, a cowkeepar and dairyman, at the back of No.
5, Robert-street, Brixton-road. When discovered, the
flames were raging in the cowshed, a timber building,
in which there were six cows and a quantity of pro.
vender ; and notwithstanding all attempts to rescue the
animals they were all burnt to death. The origin of
the fire is unknown.

At the enelusian of tle arguments tl.e Lord Chat:-
edliir reserved judgment.

THE EUROPEAN AND AUSTRALIAN STEAM PACN.ET COll

DEATII OF GENEATL TIIOMAS B. ALTMER.—The
colonelcy of the 45 h kthe Nottingliamshir,) Regiment of
Foot has become at the disposal of the General Com•-
manding-in•Cbief, by the demise of General Thomas
Brabazon Alymer, who died on Monday last. The
gallant general was in his 7o .h year, and had, from his
entering the army in August, 1797, up to 1816, seen
considerable active service.

ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMMUNICATION BETWEEN
LIVERPOOL AND HOLYHEAD.—This subject the im-
portance of which has long been recognised is again
to be brought before the Mersey Dock Board on Thurs-
day next, by Mr. Mondel, One of the members, who in-
tends to move far the appointment of a committee to
consider the best m ode of establidling a communication
by electric telegraph between Liver viol and Holyhead,
and the intermediate stations in c,)nnexion with the
existing semaphore, as far as it may be necessary to re-
tain the hater, and to report to the board, with an
estimate of the probable cost.
