turns, and the Hon. Mover consented to withdraw his
motion for the present.
Mr. WILSON presented a petition from a Lady named
Sneyd, residing in the Island of St. Vincent, praying the
House to reconsider some measure for the benefit of Negro
Slaves.

Lord MILTON asse to present a petition from a body
of manufacturers in Gloucestershire, playing for an altera-
tion in the Corn Laws. He observed, that the circum-
st'amstanees which had taken place elsewhere within the
last • few called forth the present petition. He did
did not say that the rejection of • the Corn Bill had
thrown disgrace on' that body of iftdiiidualti, by whose
instrumentality it was lost but he would aay thai they'
were not endowed with sound knowledge on com-

nurcial affairs, and that they did not display that feel-
ing which the aristocracy +-this country was bound
to evince for the interests of the lieupre—(Hear, hear.)---
lie trusted, that late as was the period of the session, some
means would yet be devised for preventing the population
of this country from suffering under the baneful effects of
the existing Corn laws for another year.—(Hear.)—The
petition was ordered to be printed.

CARLISLE—June Ift

The Wheat Market is this day lower than last Saturday,
255. being the top price for the three Winchester bushels.
We believe, however, that the abandonment of the Corn
Bill was not generally known among the country people.
Last Saturday's market, too, was considered high. The
Carlisle market is usually above the average prices, owing
to our having no easy communication with the south and
east country. It is by no means well supplied with any
kind of produce, farming stock excepted, which accords
pretty well with the average of other cattle and. flesh
'markets. Foreign produce is very ill-supplied, as there is
no bonding warehouse nearer than Whitehaven, Dumfries,
or Newcastle, with the last of which places we have no
communication by water. . Yet the. Custom House audio-.
rities, being Wellinytwiians, we suppose, have opposed'
our application for a bonding establishment.

HEMMING V. CLUTTERRUCK.

Lord Etnorr stated, that the question was, whether the
appellant was entitled to two sums, each of 5001. Long
Annuities, or only -to one. Two instruments had been
proved in the Ecclesiastical Court as constituting one
will ; though the second instrument did not profess to
be a codicil, but rather purported to be a will itself. Both
instruments mentioned the sum of 5001. Long Annuities,
and the point was, whether both sums were due to the
appellant, or, whether one was intended to be a substitu-
tion for the other? The general principles on which both
the Court of Chancery and the Civil Laws proceeded
in cases of this kind were so clearly laid down in Mr. Eadon's
Edition of " Brown's Chancery Reports," Ist vol., that
it was unnecessary for him to take up time in discussing
them. He would only, therefore, say that, though he could
not concur with the Vice-Chancellor, from whom this was
an appeal, in calling this a clear case, yet he agreed with
him that the 4,500/. mentioned in the second instrument
was intended by the testator as a substitution for the 500/.
mentioned in the first; :,.nd that, therefore, the appellant
was only entitled to one sum of 500/. The appeal dis-
missed, but without costs.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
THE MARQUIS OF LANSDOWN V. THE MARCHIONESS OF

LANSDOWN AND OTHERS.

This cause came on upon exceptions to the Master's
report. The suit was instituted so far back as 1809, by
the noble plaintiff, in order to recover from the represen-
tatives of the late Marquis the value of some ornamental
timber, cut down by him at Bow Wood. The sum
originally claimed was 15,0001., but the Master reported
that the number of trees answering that description, and
improperly cut down, were 30, and that the value of them
was somewhat about 300/. The defendants excepted to
this report.
The case after occupying the Court for the greater part
of the day, was directed to stand over to this day week, in
order that the parties might have the opportunity of com-
promising a question which has been in litigation fur 18
years.

NEW RESOLUTIONS.

Mr. CANNING said, that he rose with an intention of
moving that the House should to-morrow resolve itself
into a Committe on the Corn Laws. He did not
know whether the Honourable Gentleman opposite
(Mr. Western) meant to proceed with the motion of
which he had given notice for this evening : but whatever
course the Honourabte Genttleman might adopt, he
(Mr. Canning) informed the House that he had prepared
a series of Resolutions en the part of his Majesty's Govern-
ment, which it would be his duty to lay before the Mouse.
The course he should take in moving those resolutions, boy/
ever, would depend, in a great measure, for the result of
that which the Hon. Gentleman thought proper to adopt.
Mr. FRANKLAND LEWIS thought it was due
to the county in its present most appaling position, not to
delay the consideration of this most important question for
a single day.

General GASCOYNE, we understood, expressed the

same opinion.

Mr. CANNING said he was aware that the Hon. Gew
tletnan opposite (Mr. Western) was in possession of the
House, but if the Hon. Gent. did not choose to proceed'
he (Mr. C.) would give notice of moving the Resolutioo*
to which he had adverted. If the Hon. Gentleman thOught
proper to avail himself of the motion of which he bad,
given notice, he (Mr. Canning) reserved to himself
the discretion of moving the resolutions in the shape of so
amendment to the motion of the Hon. Gentleman.'
(Hear, hear.) '
Mr. WESTERN heard nothing calculated to induce
him to alter the course he had ptevionsly'detennined upon'
—Murmurs, and-cries of go 0.1)4
Mr. CANNING said the' Hon..GentleManhad thoUgl't
proper to put the House in. possession of the
reasons which indueed him to go on, after the intimation
thrown out by him (Mr. Canning.)

After a few more words from Lord MILTON, which we
could not collect from the noise in the House.

The House resolved itself into a Committee on the Corn
Laws, and
Mr. WESTERN proceeded with his motion, and was

expencv.

Sir ALEXANDER GRANT and others brought the
Land Tax Commission Bill. This Bill was of such a
very large size that the Lord Chancellor was unable to
carry it, and was therefore obliged to procure the assist=
ance of one of the officers of the House. The Disembodied
Militia Bill ; the Grant of Sites for Public Works Bill ;
the Public Works Bill ; and the Game Certificate Bill.

Mr. Spiller presented the third Report of the Commis-
sioners for Building Churches in the Highlands of
Scotland.

Lord KING presented a petition from Robert Gourlay,
against the discretionary clause in the Larceny Consoli-
dation Bill.

Lord KINGSTON preSented a petition from the pu
of Kilinacaby, praying for the removal of the Roman Ca:
tholic disabilities.

Lord TEYNHAM, in moving for a return of the num-
ber of Crown Leases, refused by the Commissioners of
Land Revenue, from 1820 to 1826, inclusive, alluded to
the refusal to renew the lease of Spring Gardens chapel.

Lord CARLISLE said that Government had no wish
to refuse any information that could be granted, but he
wished the motion to be confined to the particular case al-
luded to. The reason for refusing that lease, was for the
purpose of bringing the Chapel under Episcopal jurisdie-
tion. The parish of St. Martin's had applied for a site
for a Chapel, and it was intended to appropriate the site of
Spring Garden Chapel. -
REGULATION OF BANKERS.

Lord REDESDALE said he held in his hand a Bill
for the further regulation of keeping Bankers' account 4,
on which he wished to make a few obervations. It was
notorious, that in some countries, bankers were obliged to
produce a regular statement of their accounts annually. By
the law of Holland, this was strictly adhered to, otherwise
bankers when they became bankrupts, were not considered
entitled to their discharge in the manner they would have
been if they had regularly balanced their accounts. This the
Noble Lord thought an excellent guard for the public
safety. He once knew a large banking-house, which he
considered highly respectable and very solvent. As a
trustee, he had money to the amount of a hundred
thousands pounds in that banking-house.

After some further observations on the subject, the Bill
was read a first time, and ordered to be printed.

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 1827.

The French Papers of Friday, with the Etoile
dated Saturday, have been received. , Their
principal contents relate to Greece, and we are
much afraid that the late unfortunate disasters
before Athens will be confirmed. However, till
the defeat of the Greeks be fully authenticated,
we must withhold our belief in its correctness,
as there are many suspicions attached to the
present accounts, which may have been got up
by interested parties to counterbalance the recent
successes of Lord COCHRANE and General
CHURCH near Athens. Making allowance
for the worst—even the fall of the Acro-
polis, still the cause of Greece is not lost.
The memorable fall of Missolonghi, on which
the hopes of Greece depended, only served to
reanimate her warriors, and excite the sympathy
of the friends of liberty in her behalf. And
even now, though the Turks may have withstood
the gallant attempt of the Greeks, they will not
long exult in their triumph, when having such
men as Lord COCHRANE and General CHURCH
to contend with. Success only incites Cocx-
RANE to greater achievements, and partial fai-
lure (for defeat is a stranger to him) will only
have the effect of redoubling his energies. While
COCHRANE lives, the cause of Greece is in safe
hands.

The other news in the French Papers relates
to Spain, 'but is destitute of an authentic
character. The Journal des Debats says, that
the Spanish Army of Observation is either to be
disbanded or to retire into the interior—at least
60 leagues.
111AuBREuiL has been sentenced to five years
imprisonment for his assault on Prince TALLEY-
RAND.
London, England, 1827-06-18

TEST AND CORPORATION ACTS.

Petitions were presented in favour of a repeal of the
above Acts from several places in Nottingham, by Mr.
Birch ; from Chelmsford and other places in Essex, by
Mr. Western ; from Bridgenorth and other places in
Shropshire, by Mr. Whitmore ; and from Camberwell,
Surrey, by Alderman Waithman.

Mr. KENNEDY presented a petition from the Proprie-
tors of Fisheries on the river Tay, in favour of the Salmon
Fishery Bill.

BOROUGH OF EAST RETFORD.

Admiral SOTHERON presented a petition from the
Bailiffs and Aldermen of East Retford, stating that the evi-
dence taken before the Committee only imputed bribery to
five persons, and therefore calling upon the House not to
proceed upon such grounds to deprive the petitioners of the
most cherished right of Englishmen, that of choosing their
own Representatives.
After a few words from Mr. TENNtsom and Admiral
SOUTHERN, the petition was ordered to be printed.
Lord ALTHORP presented a petition from Chichester,
in favour of the Bill for preventing bribery and corruption
at elections.

Mr. FLEMING presented a petition from a parish in
Hampshire, against any alteration in the Corn Laws.

COMAIISSION OF IRISH INQUIRY.

Mr. PERCENAL brought up the appendix to the
report of the Commissioners of Irish Inquiry.
Mr. SPRING RICE said, thaf the Cornmissoners os
of Inquiry had cost the country above 900,00011. within
the last few yearsr The. minoriity had discresion from the
opinion of the majority, and not only expressed the dis-
sent, but introduced the grounds of that dissent into the
report. The object of the 'Commission was completely
nullified by this proceeding, for the object of appointing a
Commission of Inquiry was to obtain the joint opinion
of a nnmber of intelligent genttemen, and not the indi-
vidual opinion of any particular member of the Committee.
Mr. F. LEWIS defended the course he had pursuad as
a Member of the Committee. As to the expense, what-
ever value may be set on the labours of the Commission of
Irish Inquiry, he had no hesitation in stating, that the
Commission of Irish Revenue Inquiry had done more good
than would compensate tenfold for the expense of all the
other Commissions appointed for Ireland.

Mr. J. GRATTAN acknowledged that the Commission
of Inquiry into the Irish Revenue deserved the thanks of
every Irishman. He objected, however, to the practice of
individual Members of Commissions putting forward their
own opinions. The proper way for the Members of such
Commissions was to defer in all cases to the opinions of
the majority.

After a few words from Sir J. NEWPORT, the report
was brought up and ordered to be printed.
Mr. CHAPLIN presented a petition from the Wharf-
ingers on the River Umber, complaining of the conduct of
one of the Tax Officers.

Mr. J. WOOD brought the Bill for regulating the
manner of taking polls at the election for Preston, which
was read a first time, and ordered to be read a second

time.

Mr. LUMLEY presented petitions petitions from Sal-
ton, Ashley, and Newark, against tbe practice of burning
Hindoo Widows.

lect Committee on the Alehouse Licensing Rill, which was

His Majesty has made known his pleasure, that there
should be a second series of Races at Ascot, this year, and
they will take place some time in August next.
Hampton Races will commence on the 2d of July, and
will continue the two following days. The Hon. Grantley
Berkeley and Captain Lock are the Stewards, and Mr. J.
Farrell, clerk of the course. Excellent sport is expected,
including several sweepstakes; the gold cup, value 100
sous. ; a maiden plate; the cocked hat sweepstakes ; the
ladies' plate, &e.

The ensuing Races at Brighton are expected to be more
attractive than usual. Besides his Majesty's Gold Cup of
One Hundred Guineas, the Town gives 300/. in one sum
of 100/. and four Plates of 50/. each.

There are already sixteen horses entered for the Devon-
shire Stakes, at the ensuing Exeter races.
It is a fact not generally known in the sporting world,
that the Earl of Abingdon named his celebrated horse
Pot Sos from the following circumstance:—His Lordship
intended to call him Potatoes, and he was in fact so
named. One day looking at his stud, his Lordship
asked one of his stable-boys if he could spell the name of
the animal in question, with a promise of a guinea if he
succeeded. The boy wrote upon the stall, with chalk,
Potoooooooo—which so pleased the Earl, that he deter-
mined the horse should retain the name as written by the boy.

and had refused to sign the Petition.
