Mr. G. H. HOPE said he was desirous of calling the atten—
tion of the House to a statement which he made on the 2d of
May, in reference to the circumstances under which a notice
of motion made by the Hon. Gentleman the Member for
Liskeard (Mr. C. Buller), was postponed. The postpone-
ment was made by the Hon. Gentleman himself, and not
at the request of his Majesty's Government, neither was it
the result of any compromise between the Noble Lord at the
head of the Colonial Department and the New Zealand Com-
pany. A report of that Company had been pub-
lished, from which different inferences had been drawn.
He would state in a few words what occurred.
On the lit of May, having postponed his motion in
consequence of some communication with Lord Stanley he
postponed the motion to which he had alluded, but
which, as he had stated, was not the result of
any compromise whatever. In order that no mistake
might arise, he would read the letter which had
been sent by the Noble Lord to the Honourable Gentleman.
The Hon. Member then read the letter addressed to the Hon.
Member for Liskeard, requesting to know the reason why he
postponed his motion, and whether it arose from a previous
arrangement. To that letter he had returned an answer that
no arrangement had been entered into by the Honourable
and Learned Member. After this, he would leave it to
the House to decide whether they (the Ministry) were iusti-
fied or not in these proceedings.
Mr. CHARLES BULLER then rose, and was
(LEFT SPEAKING.)

MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-(FRIDAY.)

The arrivals of English 'Wheat up to our market this N%'eek
having been again very moderate, the shoe of samples of
that grain here was small. Selected qualities commanded a
steady sale, at fully Monday's quotations, but the midliing
and inferior kinds were a slow inquiry. In fine Zirreiga
Wheat rather more business was transacted, at extreme
quotations. The best parcels of Barley moved off steadily,
other kinds slowly, at late rates. Malt was a dull sale, yet
prices were generally supported. Oats, Beams, Peas, and
Flour were quite as dear.

The supply of Beasts on sale here being rather extensive,
we have to report rather a sluggish demand for Beef. The
primest qualities, however, sold at Monday's prices, but most
other kinds were 2d per Sibs lower. There were in the mar,
ket 500 Scots from Scotland, and 90 Oxen and Cows from
Holland, The numbers of Sheep were only moderate, while
the Mutton trade was steady, and previous rates were gene-
rally supported. In Lambs a fair average business was doing
at late averages ; but Calves and Pigs, though not cheaper,
were a dull inquiry. blilch Cows sold freely at from 16/ to
19/ 5s each.
