THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1835.

meant nothing offensive in his observations. He had not read
any newspapers ; but was instructed, by letters from very re-
spectable persons, that an application had gone to her Lady-
ship. He was the last person in the House to lessen or im-
pair the influence of the fair sex, or in any degree to check the
exercise of their benevolence. _ _

Mr. O'LOUGHLEN wished to set the Hon. Baronet right
as to what was the practice with regard to the applications_ to
the Lord Lieutenant for the exercise of the prerogative in the
case of the remission of sentences on prisoners. It was by no
means unusual for the Lord Lieutenant to make such remis-
sion when accompanied by such strong representations as were
made in this case, without at all referring the question to the
Judge who passed the sentence.
Sir R. BATE SON subsequently asked whether Lord
Morpeth would lay the petition from the Mayor of Derry be-
fore the House ?

Lord MORPETH coild not undertake to do so without
previous inquiry. It was not customary to lay such documents
before the House.

DISTRESS IN MAYO COUNTY.

Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD asked the Noble Lord
(Lord John Russell) whether he (Mr. Crawford) would be
afforded an opportunity to bring forward his motion to-night
for an address to the Crown with regard to the poor in the
county of Mayo ?
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that it was the intention of
the Attorney-General to move the Order of the Day, res-
pecting the Imprisonment for Debt Bill. He, therefore,
could not give the Honourable Member any assurance on the
subject.
After a few words from Mr. S. CRAWFORD,
Lord MORPETH said that the Government were doing
all they could, and he could assure the Hon. Gentleman that
their proceedings since be last mentioned the subject to the
House had not been stationary.---( Laughter. )
IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT BILL.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved that the Order of
the Day for the further consideration of the Report be read.
Mr. LAW moved that the further consideration.of the Re-
port be postponed till Monday next.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL hoped the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman would not persevere in his motion. He
had given early notice of his intention to bring this question
on to-night; and he was very anxious to do so, for there were
hundreds and thousands of persons looking forward to the
passing of this measure ; all of whom were suffering that
sickness of heart which arose from hope deferred.
Mr. LAW said that his reason for wishing the motion to be
postponed was, that many Hon. Members who were anxious to
declare their sentiments on the subject were not present.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL observed, that the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman must be aware that it was intended on
Monday to go into Committee on the Irish Church Bill ;
there would therefore be no time, at this late period of the
Session, to bring this measure forward if they were to lose the
present opportunity. He hoped the opposition would not be
persisted in.
After a few words from Mr. RICHARDS, the House di-
vided, when there were—

For the order of the day being read LW)"
Against it
Majority
The Order of the Day was then read, and the ATTOR-
NEY-GENERAL moved that the Speaker do leave the
Chair.

Mr. FRE SHFIE LD opposed the motion.
After a few words from Mr. HAWES,
Mr. RICHARDS thought evidence should be taken as to
the details of the Bill before it passed into a law. The exis-
tence of abuses in the law ought not to be an argument
against the law itself. The expenses would be enormous.
Another point was, that it would be unjust in the highest degree
if the defendant were called upon to give security for debt and
costs before the trial came on.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL trusted the House would
consent to let it pass through the Committee, and take any
further discussion on the principle of it either on the Report
or third reading.
Sir W. FOLLETT said the Bill was of very great im-
portance,--it would completely alter the law of debtor and cre-
ditor. He did hope, then, that if his Hon. and Learned
Friend would withdraw his motion, the Hon. and Learned
Gentleman opposite would defer the Committee. Many peti-
tions had been presented against the Bill, and he thought it
hardly fair to the country or to the Hon. Gentlemen who were
absent on the understanding that the Bill would not be brought
before the House this evening—( No, no)—for the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman to persevere in his motion. He assured
the Hon. and Learned Gentleman opposite that such was the
understanding.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did hope
his Hon. and Learned Friend would not accede to the pro-
position for postponement. If the Bill was postponed, what
chance was there that it could pass this session.—( Hear, hear.)
The Bill had been fully discussed before. Let them, then, pro-
ceed to the Committee, to make the Bill as perfect as possible.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL trusted that the House
would allow the Bill to be committed.

Sir W. FOLLETT did not see why the Hon. and Learned
Gentleman should not consent to fix a day in next week for
the Committee.

Sir C. BURRELL supported the Bill.
Mr. D. W. HARVEY objected to the House going into
the Committee on such a Bill merely Jiro forma. He did not
hesitate to say, that though they might recognise the princi-
ple, it was not at all probable that the Bill could pass this
session. The Bill affected the commercial credit of this coun-
try ; and being most crude and unsatisfactory in its provisions,
he thought it ought to be postponed.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the Bill-was founded
on the recommendation of the Common Law Commissioners.
After a few observations from Mr. FRESHFIELD and the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, _ _ _

Mr. RUTH YEN objected to the time that was lest in dis-
cussions which had no useful object.
M. T. ATT WOOD was favourable to the principle of the
Bill, per se. He never trusted a man with any sum of money,
relying on the power of imprisonment for its recovery.
The motion was then agreed to, and the House went into
Committee, Mr. Charles Buller in the chair.

The first clause having been agreed to, the second clause
was moved, when

. . ,
Mr. RICHARDS rose and said his principal objection was
to the first clause of the Cries of " (iuestion.")
The CHAIRMAN said that the first clause had beca agreed
to, and it was the second that was now before the Corn-
mittee.—( Laughter. )
Mr. RICHARDS was not aware that the first cause had
passed. He thought it sharp practicc,—( A laugh.)
An Hon. MEMBER moved that the Chairman should report
pro!..2,iress._

'Fie ATTORNEY-GENERAL, as we understood, said
th,:t he should not object to the Hon. and Learned Gentle-
man pursuing his observations on the first clause.
The CEIAIRMAN said that as he had not been understood to
put the first clause, he would do so again.
The clause having been put--
Mr. RICHARDS said, the Bill would have the effect cf
establishing an inquisition to inquire into men's private af-
fairs ; it would also impose considerable expenses on clients.
Mr. SCARLETT said that his objections to the Bill
were comprised in this clause, to which lie was strongly op-
posed.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL did not think that such
alarming consequences would follow. The clause would
prevent the fraudulent debtor from setting up a defence when
he had no ground for so doing.
Mr. PEASE thought that the Bill was a great improvement
on the existing state of things.
The clause was then agreed to, as was clause 2.
Clause 3 being proposed,
Mr. RICHARDS said that this provision would give a vast
political influence to the Commissioners appointed under it, and
thought that the House ought to view with great jealousy the
placing so great a power in the hands of the Crown.
Mr. FRESH FIELD also objected to the clause.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL defended it.
The Gallery was then cleared for a division, but none took
place, and the clause was, as we understood, agreed to.
After a desultory conversation, clause 4 was then agreed to.
Oa clause 5 being proposed,
Mr. RICHARDS moved that the House should, in conse-
quence of the few Members present, be counted.
After a short discussion, the clause was agreed to.
Other clauses were then proceeded with.
Mr. RICHARDS remonstrated against going on with so
important a measure, and one against which so much objec-
tion had been made, in so thin a House.

Mr. WAKLE Y observed, that they had been discussing the
Bill for seven hours, and yet no Hon. Member who objected
to it had ventured to propose any amendment. The district
of the metropolis which he represented contained 221,000 in-
habitants, and only a single request had been made to him to
oppose the Bill.
Mr. HUGHES HUGHES said that all Scotland was in
arms against the Bill.
Several Herr. MEMBERS observed that the Bill did not apply
to Scotland.

The remaining clauses of the Bill were then agreed to.
The House resumed, and the Report was ordered to be re-
ceived on Monday.
The other Orders of the Day having been disposed of, at
two o'clock. this morning the House adjourned to Monday.

An English clergyman of the Established Church
has just returned from a ramble in Egypt, Syria, and the Holy
Land, of which he is on the eve of publishing a narrative. His
chief object in making the journey was to compare, by per-
sonal investigation, the reputed sites of the great events re-
corded in the Scriptures, with the topographical descriptions
contained in the sacred writings. To the Rev. Vere Monro
the religious world will be greatly indebted, for the light which
his researches have thrown, on the geography of the Bible.
Mr. St. John, who has lately returned from the
Eastern world, is about to lay before the English public a
series of Arabian and Turkish stories, under the title of
Tales of the Ramad'han." These fictions are based upon
what the author himself witnessed of life and mariners of
oriental countries ; but the superstructure is his own, though
even in this he is said to have assimilated his inventions to the
glowing style and prodigality of incident peculiar to the ro-
mantic narratives of the Arabian story-tellers. Marvellous
adventure, enchantment, pictures of princely luxury, and inci-
dents of heroism and love, are the very essence of this fasci-
nating class of literature ; and the public will, no doubt, wel-
come them at this season of the year, when, if anything can
interfere with the dolce far mente induced by the burning
weather, it must be found in a perusal of the winning and
gorgeous stories of Arabia and Persia by so distinguished a
writer.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From th© London New Price Current of last Evening.)

SUGAR.—The demand for West India Muscovades has
been general and extensive, the prices advanced early in the
week Is. per cwt., since which the market has been firm at
the improvement.
The estimated purchases of West India Muscovades this
week are 3,500 hhds. and trs., fully maintaining the rise
of 18. on Tuesday last, and the holders exceedingly firm ;
the brown Sugars are higher in proportion than the good and
fine descriptions, arising from the request for Fruit and for
the making of home-made wines; the Jamaica browns may be
quoted 555. a 565. The buyers this afternoon are not so
eager in purchasing, and the sales this day are not so extensive
as previously.
In the refined market there was a rise of Is. a Is. 6d., on
Tuesday last, owing to the grocers for home consumption
coming forward freely to purchase, and they paid ls. a Is. 6cl.
higher than the export houses, 795. and 80s. for Lumps, the
former not fine enough to pass the standard, which was equal
to 395. for crashed.

There is little alteration in 'refined this afternoon ; the
scarcity of goods still very great, and higher prices again asked.
MAURITIUS.—The public sale on Tuesday last 2,365 bags
went off with great briskness at Is. a Is. 6d. higher
The public sale this day (8,414 bags) did not go off with the
former spirit ; but the prices were supported, but not the former
eagerness in buying, yellow 545. a 60s. 6d., grey, .535. 6d. a
595. 6d., brown 495. a 535.
EAST INDIA.—The advance in West India Sugars has occa-
sioned more inquiry for East India, parcels of Java have been
sold at 2s. advance, a parcel of 8,200 bags Manilla sold at
28s. 9d., and 30s. is now asked.
This day's public sale 526 bags Bengal Sugar sold Is.
higher, good mid. to fine white 325. 6d. a 345. 6d.
FOREIGN.—The demand for Foreign Sugars continues ; 325.
has been paid for 500 boxes yellow, and 38s. for 1,000 boxes
white, and 325. 9d. refused for strong yellow. The purchases
of Brazil are SOO chests white Pernams, of which 30 damaged
sold, all at 31s. with 131bs. tare.

WEST INDIA MOLASSES.—There have been large purchases
of West India Molasses, the best quality 245. a 245. 6d., the
general price 235. a 235. 6d., old 20s. a 21s.
COFFEE.—The quantity of British Plantation offered for
sale this week has been more considerable than for some time
past, the consequence has been a general heaviness; the gro-
cers only purchase small parcels for immediate use on rather
easier terms, all the remainder taken in by the Brokers at
nearly former prices, but the appearance of the market is very
heavy. Foreign Coffee is equally dull, good ordinary Brazil
mixed with blacks, 525., the fine ord. all taken .555. a 565. In
East India there is little variation, good ord. Ceylon 625. 6d.
a 635.

By public sale this day 569 bags Ceylon sold ls. higher,
chiefly good quality 635. a 645. ; 532 bags Brazil sold 2s.
lower, ord. to good ord. 50s. 6d. a 515., one lot 535., the re-
mainder 48s. a 50s. The British Plantation 25 bags Deme-
rara, 115 trs. 31 brio. Jamaica and Berbice, mostly taken in at
former prices.
COCOA.—The last purchases of Brazil Cocoa reported by
private contract is a parcel of 400 to 500 bags at 275.
By public sale this day 135 bags Bahia Cocoa like Grenada,
sold 31s. 6d. a 335. 6,1., but it cannot be given as any crite-
rion respecting the common Brazil Cocoa.
Also 70 bags 41 brls. British Plantation, good Trinidad,
515. 6d. a 525.

RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum market conti-
nues very firm : nearly all the late imports have been sold at
full prices, and as the importers are without supplies, it is
difficult to quote prices ; but parcels could not be purchased
at the former quotations. No Jamaica 30 over now offer un.
der 3s. 2d., and it would be difficult to buy proof Leewards
at 2s. ld. In Brandy or Geneva there is no alteration.
TALLOW.—The prices of the Tallow market continue
firmly advancing. The great holders, the Russians, evince no
inclination to sell Tallow at the present prices.
SPICES.—There is little alteration in Spices, small parcels
of Pepper have been sold at the late prices ; large parcels of
Pimento also at the late currency 41d. a 4 d., small ber-
ries 41d.
This day's public sales 136 bags Pimento sold at full prices
4id a 41d., fair quality.
NITRATE OF SODA.—There are no sales to report.
SALTPETRE.—The public sales early in the week, 10,000
bags, went off 6d. to Is. higher, 2/ to 20} refraction 235. 6d.
a 255. 6d. Refined 295.
WooL.—There has been but little business doing in the
Wool Market since the public sales. Some business has been
done in Spanish Wool at unaltered prices. The interest
excited by the public sales seem to increase, as the attend-
ance of the buyers frOm all parts was larger than on any for-
mer occasion, new buyers having been attracted, and there ap-
pears an evident desire in the trade to encourage the growth
of Colonial Wool.

Hops.—The estimated duty on Hops has fallen from
205,000/. to 195,000/. It is stated that the extreme heat of
the sun, and the very dry weather, has injured several descrip-
tions of Hops very materially.
COTTON.—There is no new feature in the Cotton market.
The sales reported since our last are-450 Surat ord. to fine
61d. a 81d4 ; 140 Madras fair to good 7/d. a Id. ; 300 Boweds
fair 1014. ;80 Bengal fair to fine 7-id. a 7ici.
FRviT.-There is little alteration to notice in fruit. _

Isomo.—Observations of the sales of Indigo, which com-
menced on the 14th inst., and ended this day:-7,126 chests?
sold by sundry brokers in Mincing-lane. 1,231 ditto, ditto, by
the East India Company—in all 8,357 chests. 472 chests
were withdrawn, leaving 7,885 chests, of which about 1,700
were bought in.
The sale was attended by several Foreigners and many of
the Consumers, none of whom appeared anxious to purchase
at the commencement, which caused the Sale to go heavily
for the first week at prices from 4d to Bd. per lb. lower than
the April Sale. In the last week the buyers for shipping,
as also for the home trade, bought freely, which caused an
advance of 2d. to 3d. per lb. Prices may therefore be con-
sidered on the average from 4d. to 6d. per lb. lower than
last sale, viz.—on the fine and good 3d. a sd. lower, mid.
and consuming 4d. a Bd. lower, ord. and low 3d. to 6d.
lower, Madras last Sale's prices to 3d. higher.
SILK.—The market continues without any marked alteration ;
the prices are firm.
Tobacco.-There is little to report in Tobacco, the holders
are firm in demanding such high prices as to prevent sales, the
stock is also so small that there is little choice left for the
buyers.
RrcE.—By public sale this day, 1,595 bags good Bengal
sold 12s. a 12s. 6d., a shade higher.
TEA.—Since the Sale more demand for Canton Boheas at
lid. ; in other kinds but little doing, as the trade are looking
forward to the result of the Company's Teas not paid far at
their last prompt, and the large sale of free trade to take
place on the 3th proximo.
CINNAMON.-The sales yesterday, 2nds taken in at from
7s. 3d. a 6s. Bd., only one lot sold at 7s. 2d., and 3 chests at
ss. 6d., much about the same as last sale.
