THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, JULY 30.
With a liberal supply of wheat our market was dull at last
week's rates. The sale of wheat was very languid. The re-
ports of blight are not only confirmed, but the injury done to
tte ears is much greater in extent than was at first considered.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states had daily,
and at times heavy, rains, from the night of the 23d until last
evening, and no doubt the crops throughout this district have
received some injury, and harvest a good deal retarded. Much
&llness has been imparted to the trade, but it has altogether
licked the excitement of former years, and an advance of Is.
per qaarter on Wheats is all that can be said to have been
really established. For to-day's market our farmers brought
forward a large supply of Wheat, and under the influence of
the bad weather of the last seven days, and generally laid crops,
they asked a smart advance upon previous rates. Millers,
however, were only cautious buyers, and paid 435. to 45s re-
luctantly, being an advance of is per quarter on last Tuesday's
rates. The Foreign Wheat trade was not so brisk as at the
close of last week—the return of fair weather obliterating the
remembrance of seven rainy days. Holders, however, did not
give way. A continued good sale for Barley of all descriptions,
and not much good grinding offering. Oats are in improved
demand, and 6d. to Is. dearer. Beans and Peas meet fair sale
at our quotations, but condition is much looked at by buyers.
Linseed advances, with small import and stock. A good sale
for Cake cf all descriptions. Several samples showing of
Rapeseed, both English and Foreign—quality fine, but no price
is yet made. Rape Cakes continue scarce,ll

30. At this day's market there was a
good attendance of the ,trade, but the weather being fine,
little disposition was evinced to make purchases of Wheat,
except for the supply of pressing wants, and the advance of
Friday was partially lost, Id per -701bs being the utmost ad-
vance that can be noted on the week. Oats and Oatmeal met
with a limited sale, without change in value. Barley, Beans,
and Peas were in fair-request, at an advance of Id per 601b3 on
the former, and 6d per quarter on the two latter articles.
Flour was taken in retail quantities at late rates. Indian Corn
was hardly inquired for; and above 27s per quarter could not
be made for prime .yellow American, being is per quarter ad-
vance on the week ; but ls lower than on Friday.

dieal change and not fear the Ministers. He thought
every man entitled to a vote, whatever his Condition,
who must be protected by the ballot, and the Mem-
bers must he brought to a short account by triennial
Parliaments, and they must get an equalization of
electeral districts.—(Hear, hear.) These changer, if
elected, he would fearlessly support. lie represented
his late constituents thirteen years, and was never
told that he had varied in the slightest dee-ree from
the opinions he expressed when he was, first returned
for Coventry. He would not allow, without making
his opposing voice beard, the Comforts of the poor to
be taxed heavily while the luxuries of the rich were
but lightly touched. If he had the honour of being
returned to represent this borough, no man should
ever charge him with violating one principle he bad
professed. He had pointed out in the House that
economy in the public expenditure was the most effec-
i tive way to lighten the public burdens. In a visit to the
manufactories of Germany, France, and' Switzer-
land, he found they were surpassing us in manufac-
tures; and in 1836 he had called the attention of the
House to this, and suggested a,reduction of t.exetion
to relieve our manufacturers. He also declared that;
should he be returned, whenever his conduct was dis,
pleasing to the electors, he would resign his seat into
their hands. There were many candidates in the
field,' but if they thought he was deserving of their
support, he hoped they would put their should-n-8 to
the wheel at once, and show that they were deter-
mined to have the man of their choice.—(Cheers.)
Mr. DODLTON moved, and E. JONES, Esq., seconded
the following resolution :--" That this Meeting
having heard with satisfaction the explanation which
Mr. Williams has given of his political opinions, and
viewing his consistent conduct as a- member of the
House 'of Commons for thirteen years, 'consider him
eminently qualified to represent the borough of
Lambeth in Parliament, and pledge themselves to use
every effort to secure his return."
After a futile attempt by Mr. KrNssnr to carry
an atnendment, amidst much Uproar, the resolution
was carried with only two dissentients.
A vote of thanks was passed to the chairman ; the
meeting was then thanked by Mr. WILLIAMS ; and,
after giving hiM three hearty cheers, dispersed.
Last evening another meeting was held at the Horns
Tavern, Kennington, to receive the resignation of Mr.
C. Pearson, and to hear the opinions of any gentleman
who might present himself as a candidate for filling the
vacancy in the representation of the borough. Mr. J.
Hunt, one of the churchwardens; presided. Mr.
Pe erson was not present. The chairman having ob•
served that the electors were called upon to exercise a
most important right, said he should not detain
them with any remarks of his own, but at once in-
troduce the ge.atleman who claimed their suffrages. Mr.
Williams, who was accompanied by Mr. G. Thompson,
M.P., and Sic Joshua Walmaley, M.P., then ad-
dressed the me etiog. He would not have come for-
ward to solicit 'their support had he net been assured
that a large no tuber of the electors entertained opinions
in accordance vith his own. His opinions were well
known, and he could not do better than refer to his
votes when he was a Member of the House of Com-
mons, He had never given a vote which was against
the interest of the people; by the people he meant
the productive classes, and he was as proud of being one
of the working classes as be should be if he had the
noblest blood ill his veiny. Mr. Williams, having at
some length referred to his Parliamentary conduct, con-
cluded by saying, if be had the honour of Moe• re-
turned to Parliament, ho should endeavour to
procure an equal distribution of taxation, and
should devote his best exertions to their good.
In reply to a question as to the property qualifica-
tion of Alembers of Parliament, the Honourable Gen-
tleman said, in Scotland the only qualification was
being elected by the people, and that was the only
qualification ho should acknowledge. To a questien
whether in the event of his being elected ho would
appear annually before his constituents, he replied t e
would, and that if a majority of the electors de-
manded his resignation he would plane his seat at their
disposal. In reply to another question, Mr. Williams
said be considered that Church and State had no con-
nexion with each other.—(Hear, hear.) The Rev. Mr.
Burnett having said a few words, Sir J. Walmsley and
Mr. G. Thompson addressed the meeting, and called
upon the electors to support Mr. Williams; after which
a resolution pledging the meeting to do so was carried
and thanks having been given to the chairman, the pre.
ceedings terminated.

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.
Oa Monday a court was held for the dispatch of
business ; the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the
chair.

It was unanimously agreed, upon the report of the
Inprovement Committee, brought up by Mr. Thomas
Henry Hall, that a considerable sum for the discharge
of a further part of the loan raised for the approaches
to London-bridge should be at once appropriated.
Upon the report of the Markets Committee being
brought up by Mr. Thomas Rowley, it was resolved
that in order to protect the fishermen who brought up
oysters by fishing-smacks to the port of London from
the fisheries in Kent and Surrey, that some ccnsi-
derable reductions should take place in the metage
dues, &c., on oysters brought into the port cf London,
Mr. ROWLEY (chairman of the Markets Committee),
on the reference in relation to the duties and remune-
ration of the inspector of live cattle in Smithfield-
market, reported the itiefficiency of the present
officer, prayed for compensation for him, and advised in
the! anguage of the committee, that, in order to carry
out the intention of the Act of Parliament, the future
inspector, to be appointed by the Lord Mayor, should
be a veterinary surgeon, or some party qualified to
give a professional opinion as to the state in which
any diseased cattle might be found.—Agreed to.
Upon the motion of Mr. BROWN, Mr. John Jewell,
of the office of the clerk of the chamber, bad granted
to .him a gratuity of 1001.; and on the petition
of Mr. James Renat Scott, the clerk and registar
of the coal-market, an additional 1001. was granted,
as an annual account to meet the expenses of his
office.

The folloling sums were then voted out of the
City's cash :

1001. to the City of London Hospital for Diseases
in the Chest.

1051. towards the erection of a school-house at the
church of St. James's, Curtain road.
1051. to the London Fever Hospital, and
50 guineas towards the Widows' Friend Society,
Old Fish-street, City.
A quantity of routine business having been trans-
acted, and a few other motions having been briefly
disposed of, the court adjourned shortly before three
o'clock.

CANTERBURY ASSOCIATION.
Yesterday, at one o'cloek, a public breakfast was
given by the Canterbury Association to the colonists
about to take their departure for the settlement of the
association in New Zealand. The entertainment took
place on board the Randolph, in the East India Docks,
Blackwell, one of four fine ships chartered • for the voy-
age, and giving in their appearance and equipment
every reason to anticipate a safe and prosperous passage.
The names of the vessels are the Sir George Seymour,
the Cressey, the Charlotte Jane, and the Randolph. The.
day appointed for sailing is the 29th of August. They
lay yesterday close together in dock, and were dressed
with flap in honour of the occasion. From 200 to 300
ladies and gentlemen were assembled on the occasion,
and the scene which the good ship presented was a most
animated and cheering one. An elegant entertainment,
provided by the spirited proprietors of the London Ta-
vern—a well-dressed company, apparently in affluent
circumstances—the band of the Coldstream Guards—
speeches full of hope and promise—these Rere the main
features of the occasion.

Lord Lytteiten filled the chair, and amonz the com-
pany were—Lord Somerville and Mrs. Somerville, Lord
Nelson and Lady Susan Nelson, the lion. Edward Nel-
son, Mr. John Simeon, M.P., the Hon. F. Stuart Wort-
ttio Marchiones of Drogheda, Lord and Lady
Wharnoliffe, the Hon. Mrs. Rigecurnbe Lady Shelley!
and Miss Shelley, Mr. Somers Cocks, M.P., Mrs. R*gi-
nald Cocks, Mr. Hoare and Miss Georgina Hoare, Cap-
tain Cocks (Coldstream Guards), Captain Yorke, R.N.,
the Hon. Henry Nelson, Mr. Thackeray, the Bishop of
Norwich and Miss Howell, Lady Grey, Miss Burdett
Coutts, Mrs. Shelley (of Avington), Lady Caroline
Stirling and Miss Stirling, Lieutenant-Colonel Campbell,
the Rev. W. Sewell, Mr. Watts Russell, Lieutenant
Lean, R.N.

Ample justice having been done to the good cheer
provided, and the usual loyal toasts having been drunk,
The CHAIRMAN gave "The Church and the Bishop
designate of the diocese, in connexion with the Canter-
bury Association." It was needless fur him to say
much as to the influence which the association wished the
religious element to have in their colony. That was, far
above all others, the distinguishing feature which they
wished to introduce in the foundation and progress of
their undertaking. But ho was anxious to say a few
words on the second part of his toast, with reference to
the Bishop who was to preside over the settlement. The
Rev. Mr. Jackson was known by name is all of thew,
and more intimately to many then assembled. He was
not present among them, because ever since his appoint-
ment he had been engaged in making known through-
out the country the objects and principles of their un-
dertaking, and in providing the means for planting the
Church in his diocese. That had involved him in en-
gagements in different parts of the country which pre-
vented him attending the present festivity, which /eel
been only recently set on f)ot.—(Cheers.) Besides the
explenations which he had just offered as to the absence
Of their Bishop designate, he had also to say someihing
to them on a point in reference to which he could
not speak with the satisfaction be could wish.
Last Thursday tho Bishop of Montreal was conse-
crated, and the association had hoped that the
same enremony would then be perforMed on
their bishop also. It had not, however, been possible to
