Although the supilT(TfleLt;Tv7sgood, there was ac-de
cided improvement in the demand for that description of
stock, at, in some instances an advance in prices, the best
Scots realising 3s 10d per 811). From. Scotland, we received
about 200 horned and polled Scots. The Mutton trade was,
on the whole, arm, at very full rates. In Lambs, the supply
of which was moderate, a limited business was doing, yet
prices were supported. From the Isle of Wight about 170
came fresh to hand. In Pigs very little was doing, at late
rates. Mitch Cows sold at from 161 to 1915 s each.

In consequence of the reports from the Hop plantations
being confirmatory of a general attack of fly, to a much
greater extent than is usual at this period of the year, the
demand has very much improved, and the quotations have
advanced from 8s to 10s per cwt. The factors have now
scarcely any Hops on offer. The stock on hand has not been
known so small since 1817.

The capital sentences for eleven great crimes (mur-
.der, attempts at murder, treason, arson, cutting and
maiming. riot, &c. &c.) passed in the three years
1841, 1842, and 1843, were respectively for each
year, 80, 57, 97. We are grieved to add this illus-
tration of the remarks which we have hazarded above
as to the hitherto unsatisfactory working of the last
Act for abolishing the penalty of death in various
cases. But we should observe that' o noble an expe-
riment—that a principle which we believe to be so
sound in the abstract—ought not to be condemned,
even on this sort of constructive evidence without
further and more prolonged inquiry.
In 1838, by the Acts of the Ist Victoria, a further and
more important amelioration was effected in the Criminal
Laws, and the penalty of death removed from several of
the largest classes of offences for which up to that time,
executions had not been unfrequent. With reference to
these offences, a similar comparison to the foregoing is
made, excepting only such as from their numbers were
too unimportant to afford any useful results.

On each of offences there has been a very consi-'
derable increase, which on the aggregate reaches 109 per
cent., the commitments generally increasing only 26.4
per cent, in the same time. The convictions have been
slightly affected by the removal of the extreme penalty,
• the proportion acquitted having decreased from 1 in
2.26 to 1 tri t• 73.

LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1844.

Mr. O'CONNELL presented a petition from Dublin,
praying the House of Commons to suspend the
Standing Orders with respect to the Dublin and
Cashel Railway Bill. A number of other petitions
to the same effect were presented by Mr. SIIAw, Mr.
SHEIL, Mr. HAMILTON, and Mr. O'BRIEN.
The Ashton and Staleybridge Railway Bill was
read a second time and ordered to be engrossed.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER announced
that on the 3d of June he would move that the
House resolve itself into Committee on the Sugar
Duties Bill.
. Mr. WARD gave notice that on Thursday week he
would move that the House resolve itself into Com-
mittee, to . take into consideration the Temporalities
of the Irish Church.
..
In answer to a question from Mr. COLLETT, relative
to the IVhitsun holidays, Sir ROBERT "EEL said he
should propose that. the House should adjourn from
Friday week till the Thursday following.
• On the motion of Mr. DUNCOMBE, a return was
ordered of the money paid, or to be paid, to Govern-
nient short-hand writers during the trial of Mr.
O'CONNELL and others ; and also of the money paid
for notes taken at Conciliation Hall, between the Ist
of August-, 1843, and the present time.
Sir C. Narimi 'brought forward the present state
of the Navy List, and pointed out the disadvantages to
the service by retaining officers on service who were
incapacitated by age or infirmities, while so many
young officers had nothing to do. The list, he said,
AF:\ .. allowed there were only two Admirals under 70 years
.._ . of age, twenty-five Rear-Admirals' under 65, and
fifteen under 60 years of age. He entered into length-
ened details 're.pecting the state of the navy, for
which we refq to the report, and moved, " That it be
a-recotatnend ; .on to the House, that previous to the
preparation-
.o the estimates for 1844 and 1845, a plan
(t
of retiremeo e devise', so as to render the naval ser-
vice- efficient, and with a view to reward old and de-
serving officers."

were gilded or-not." The Detergent soon convinced us of the fact,'by
removing the accumulated stains and tarnish of many years ; these
frames have now_ the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool
Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844.
"We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture
frames, and must confess we were very sigreeablY surprised at the

SPENCER'S CELEBRATED CHINESE
LIQUID HAIR DYE.
The thousands of individuals who have had the pleasure of using
Spencer's Chinese Liquid Hair Dye, pronounce it to be the only Dye
extant which will effectually change, in a few minutes, red or grey
hair to a dark brown or black, and it can be proved incontestibly
that it is the safest dye in its use that ever was prepared. Red or
grey hair, whiskers, eyebrows, moustaches, &c., are changed without
trouble, by simply using a comb we'ted with the liquid; one applica-
tion will produce a pleasing and a permanent change. The colour
it imparts to the hair can never be discovered to have been ef-
fected by dye, it being so perfectly natural, and neither washing, per-
spiration, or anything will in the least fade or affect the colour pro. H
duced. undreds of ladies who wore false hair, because their own
became grey, wear new their own. Also, thousands of gentlemen
who had grey or red whiskers, vi hich was a great disfigurement, have

frames have now the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool
Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844.
" We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture
frames, and must confess we were very agreeably surprised at the
result for it restores the splendour of gilding with very little trouble.
A single bottle is more than sufficient for all the picture and looking-
glass frames in a moderate-sized house."—Vide Nottingham Review,

COUNTY COURTS BILL.

Mr. S. NITORTLEY wished to know from the Right
._/lon. Gentleman the Secretary of State for the Home
Department, whether he would proceed with the County
Courts Bill this session.
Sir J. GRAHAM said tf.e Bill had been delayel in
consequence of the' Debtor and Creditors' Bill being de-
tained so long in the House of Lords. Seeing
On the order-book seven notices before going into Corn.
mitte-c of Supply., and having regard also to measures of
great importance, which were still in progress, he con-
fessed that he felt obliged to abandon the measure for
the present session.
In reply to a question from Mr. BODKIN,
Sir J. GRAHAM said the Commissioners appointed
to inquire into the trust property of Queensborough
had completed their report, but in consequence of the
time for giving notice having expired, it would be im-
possible to legislate on the subject during the present
session.

Mr. AINSWORTH said he had that morning re-
ceived a report of the evidence taken before the coroner
at Bolton, in reference to the bursting of a steam-engine.
No blame whatever appeared to attach to Mr. John
Brooks, the owner of the mill, but there had been very
great neglect on the part of one of his servants, against
Whom the jury had found a verdict of manslaughter.
The Sudbury Disfranchisement Bill was read a third

BRAZIL.

Mr. M. GIBS'JN wished—to put a questio-, to the
Right Hon. Bproriet at the head of her Majesty's Go.
vernment utlon a matter of some importance. Informa-
tion had reached this country that the Brazilian Govern-
ment had prepared a new tariff for adoption after the
10th. of November next, proposing a touch higher rate
of duty on articles of British manufacture than existed
at 'present. He wished to know from the Right Hen.
Baronet whether he had reason to believe that such a
tariff would be adopted and was already prepared by the
Brazilian Government.

Sir R. PEEL said that he had seen in the public
papers a statement to the effect of that made by the
Hon. Member. Imaiediately upon seeing it, he applied
to the Foreign-office for the purpose of knowing whe-
ther such infc,-anation had been received, and he had
been informed that it had not. Perhaps by the next.
mail he might be prepared to give some answer to the
9113tion.
Mr. MILNER GIBSON, wished to know whether the
Government had had any correspondence with the Dutch
Government relative to the importation of sugar from
Java, and whether they had any objection to lay that
correspondence before the House.
Sir R. PEEL said that her Majesty's Government
were in correspondence wita the Dutch Government upon
the subject, and also upon the differential duties ; but
he was not in a condition to place that correspondence
before the House.
LAW OF SETTLEMENT.

Mr. LIDDELL wished to know from the Right Hon.

Gentleman the Secretary of State for the HomeTher,art-
ment, whether he was prepared with a Bill to ameaa the
law of settlement this session.
Sir J. GRAHAM said that a Bill had been prepared
on the subject, which was ready for introduction. He
would ask leave to bring in the Bill during the present
session, and it could be considered during the recess.

ACCIDENT AT BOLTON.
Mr. FERRAND wished to know from the Right Hon.
Gentleman, the Secretary of State for the Home Depart-
ment, whether he would lay the evidence taken at the
coroner's inquest, in the case of the persons who were
killed at Bolton, on the table of the House.

Sir J. GRAHAM said he had considered the subject
to which the lion. Meinber adverted. He observed that
the verdict of the jury was one of manslaughter. The
notes taken would be transmitted to the Judge of A.,size,
before whom the case would ultimately come, so that, in
point of tact, he doubted of the possibility of the House
to compel a result of this description. He must say he
did not think it consistent with the ends of justice, be-
fore the party was put on his trial, that the notes taken
for the judge should be laid on the table of the House,
and made matter of debate there.--(Hear.)
