that the markets in Ireland shall be taken into
accbufit.iii regulating the importation of foreign
grain; not a solitary bushel of, which can, until
the condition.of..lreland is changed, ever be in-
troduced there:. Had they been within the.
reach' of an enactment, we have no doubt the
markets of Poland would' have been attempted
to be included also; and the. one .motion would
be, in every respect, as consonant with reason
and justice as the other. .We are surprised
that a feeling ,-of interest should not have
whispered to their Lordships, that, by en-
deavouring to grasp too much, they may lose what
they have. If, ever there was a measure which bore
all the marks of fair and impartial justice it was the
Corn Bill. It leaned,' indeed, to the agriculturists—
"it looked upwards"—as was fitting. It was mer-
cantile, in poitlt of principle, but it was agricultural
in point of price, as its Right Hon. Mover well ob-
served: Their Lordships,-however, seem not to be
satisfied . with having thrown away that measure,
but they seek to clog even its temporary and imper-
fect substitute with conditions, which will hamper,
if not destroy, its operation. No doubt in all this
their Lordships are actuated solely by a strong feel-
ing for the public good. They have, indeed, as-
serted the purity of their motives so repeatedly and
so emphatically, that he must be a determined scep-
tic that would venture to doubt it. For our own
part we are fully convinced, that the fortunate coin-
cidence of their Lordships' patriotism and personal
interest, like many of the coincidences that we have
of late witnessed, is purely accidental.—New Times.

custom has produced the most beneficial effects ; and though

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, Twelve o' Clock.
Consols opened this morning at 823 3 for money, and
83 3 for account, and immediately afterwards advanced to
833, buyers, for account, during which some extensive
business was effected ; they are now 84- 3 for account,
and heavy; Stock is scarce ; the British Funsis look well,
and barring any thing of a political nature, they appear
likely to be on the rise from the great quantity of money in
the market. India Bonds have had a further advance of
°tie shilling per Cent. and may be quoted at 69 70 pm. ;
Exchequer Bills have not, however, kept pace with them,
and are rather lower, being 46 7 pm. The Foreign Funds,
Particularly Mexican and Colombian Bonds, were rather flat
at the opening of the market, they have since rallied, and
11exican have risen from 703 3to 713 ; Colombian 40310 40 ; Portuguese are about 3 per Cent. higher, being
tooted at 78 3. Shares remain with scarce any attention
Paid to their prices, and are stated at a slight advance, but
not worth any particular notice.

NEW COURT.

Edmond Wright was indicted for embezzling 20 sove-
reigns, and on a second count, with stealing four 51. Hunt-
ingdon bank notes, the property of John Winskil.
The prosecutor is a publican residing at the White Hart,
Giltspur street. The prisoner had been in his service
about three mouths previous to the 10th of February. On
the morning of that day the wife of the prosecutor gave the
prisoner four Huntingdon Bank notes for 51. each, with direc-
tions to get Bank of England notes for them at Esdaile's:Bank,
and to get those notes changed for silver at the Bank of
England. The prisoner departed with the notes, but never
returned.

Mr. Winskil ascertained that he had formerly lived in
Suffolk, whither he proceeded without delay, and ultimately
apprehended him at Hull. He had then spent all the money
but three sovereigns, and was living with a prostitute._
He expressed his contrition, and stated to Mr. W. how he
had disposed of the money. He said he bad bought a
watch, a coat, and a clock, and had spent the remainder in
travelling.

Mr. Winskil secured the property, and now applied for
the sanction of the Court for keeping it, but the prisoner
with the most barefaced impudence said the property was
his own, and requested the Court to make an order for it to
be delivered to him.

The prisoner said nothing in defence, and the Jury
found him Guilty.
The RECORD/It then proceeded to pass sentease, and
observed, that the number of prisoners who were indicted
for robbing their masters exceeded this session that of any
one in his recollection for the last forty years. Such a sum
as 201. lost by a tradesmen at one time, would, if he was not
in good circumstances, distress him severely. The learned
Judge then animadverted severely on the prisoner's un-
feeling impudence, who, after having robbed his master of
201., had applied to the Court for the remainder of the
property which he had confessed to his master was a part
of that he had stolen. He then sentenced him to fourteen
years' transportation.

John Murran Was convicted oistealing 301bs. of iron,
on the 25th of February last, the property of George and
Charlotte Turner, engine manufacturers, Whitefriars.—
Seven years' transportation.

AWFUL OuTßAGL—Between two and three
o'clock yesterday morning, the house of John Mannin (who,
on an action for trespass, tried by record, this Assizes, was
awarded 50/. damages, and 6d. costs, against Mr. Mande-
ville), of Ballybough, was maliciously burnt, and horrible
to relate, his wife, Catherine Mannin, reduced to a cinder !
The furniture, the clothes of the family, and almost every
article were consumed to ashes ! How awful is the state
of society in this county ! While his Majesty's commis-
sion was sitting, an awful and a most daring murder was
committed near Cashel, by the lawless and indomitable
ruffians that riot in rapine and murder, set the laws at
defiance, insult his 111ajesty's Commission, and inspire the
farmers and the peasantry with such dread and terror of
their lives and properties,
that they can, and do levy, with
impunity, rob, assassinate, and commit every degree, and
almost every species, of degradation. And while the
always-ever-to-be-respected commission continues to exer-
cise its most salutary, restraining,
and punitive functions--
while the murderer of the Sheas, under the authority of
that commission, still exhibits an ignominious, disgusting,
and anatomized spectacle of awful pnaishment_while the
murderers of Barry are being prepared for the same dread-
ful and shameful death...-a rains of ruffians can he found
to re-act the dreadful scene which terminated the last sad
old burning menleuts of the Sheas.”. gown/ Redd.

man drink it. Master had an awning pole in his
had, with which he hit the man once, but not very
hard. When he was burned with the poker, the
man had no clothes on but a Guernsey frock. I re-
collect seeing master put the ballast over the man,
and put it down with a shovel; this was in the
hold.

James Nuttal—Was seaman on board the Valiant
on her voyage to the Mauritius; knew Williams;
the man was found dead about four o'clock on Sun-
day morning; on the day before we were all on
deck. The Captain called for assistance to me to
haul the cook up by the leg, and when I saw who it
was I would not haul him up ; I saw him hauled up
to the galleys; I saw an iron hoop put in the fire,
and put to the hair of his head; it burned the hair,
but not the flesh.

William Norman and James Davison corroborated
the preceding evidence.
Wilson, one of the Thames Police officers, had
apprehended the prisoner on a charge of murdering
his black cook, Francis Williams. The prisoner
said, that he had drawn up an inquisition, which the
.crew had voluntarily signed, that the man had died
by the visitation of -God, and further observed, that
he had a document in his cabin, which would con-
vict the crew of perjury, if they persisted in this
charge.
This was the whole of the evidence against the
prisoner.

- Mr. ADOLPHUS asked the Magistrate whether he
considered the evidence sufficient to justify com-
mittal ?

Mr. BRODERIP.--I am of opinion that it is a case
that ought to go to a jury, and under that impres-
sion I shall certainly commit the prisoner.
The witnesses were then bound over in their r".cog-
nizances to prosecute the law with effect against the
prisoner at the bar, on a charge of" Wilful Murder,"
committed on the high seas.
The case will be tried at the Admiralty Sessions.
The prisoner appears to be a man about 40 years
of age, and 'during the examination seemed to be
perfectly aware of his perilous situation.

SAINT LUKE'S PARISH.

• Yesterday evening, at five o'clock, the arduous contest
in the above Parish, for the situation of Vestry Clerk, ter'
initiated. An immense concourse of the inhabitants as-
sembled, in the immediatevicinity of the Church, anxinullr
waiting for the result of the ballot. Not the least doubt'
existed as to the success of Mr. Wall. The expence in-
curred by Mr. Wall and Mr. Wilks has been very great.---
The ballotting glasses were closed at five o'clock, and deli
vered to the Scrutineers, who were engaged until sever'
o'clock in counting the number of votes for each Candi
date ; all of which, except Mr. Wall and Mr. Wilks, bad
resigned the contest. At the hour above stated, the doors
of the Church were re .opened, and the proper Officer
declared the numbers to be as follows

For Mr. Wall, 544 ; Mr. Wilks, 311—Majority, 233•
The result was received with immense cheering.
Mr. WALL, attended by his friends, then proceeded to
the Saint Luke's Tavern, where he briefly returned thanks
for the honour done him. He hoped that the parishioners
would have no cause to regret his election.—(Cheers.)
Mr. PM.LISTER said, that if any man had supposed, five
years ago, that they should have obtained a triumph over
Mr. Wilks, they would have been laughed at, and consi-
dered fit for St. Luke's. Principle had prevailed over
long purse ; and, having gained an advantage, he hoped
they would keep it.
A Veetry will be held this day formally to declare the
numbers.

HUNTING EXTRAORDINARY.

On Saturday a scene of rather a novel character was wit-
nessed in the west end of the New Town, which amply
demonstrates the lamentable proneness of most people to
follow a multitude in doing evil. A harmless rabbit,
domiciled in some of the back courts in Glenfinlas Street,
had just stepped out from her borough, to take a peep at
the magnificent octagons, circusses, and crescents, now be-
ing erected in Lord Moray's parks—expecting, it may be
supposed, nothing else than civil treatment in so refined a
neighbourhood. Hard by, however, were a number of ma-
sons at work, one of whom, on seeing puss, unthinkingly
bawled out " Halloo !" and, clapping his hands—ran !_
What is't ?" cried the hewers of stone, and, brandishing
their mallets—ran! "What is't ?" cried the neighbouring
builders, and, flourishing their trowels—ran! " What
is't ?" cried the astounded joiners, and, shouldering their
hatchets— ran! " Teil tam !" exclaimed Donald the cad-
die, and Donald and the caddies—ran! "Loch, preserve
us !" exclaimed Tibby, and all the Tibbics came out and
—ran! In short, the flying cavalcade continued to in-
creased, until dogs included, the aggregate hunters amount-
ed to at least a thousand souls. The unfortunate rabbit
was, of course, doomed to destruction, and suffered bestial
execution in Queen-street Gardens, at the hands of several
merciless dogs. Now, had the object of pursuit been a
witch on a broom-strick, or Michael Scott on a horned
stirk, we should not, in that case, have ridiculed curiosity,
or blamed a laudable zeal in the chase, but to see a whole
host of modern Athenians persecuting to the death, and
glorying in the martyrdom of a poor rabbit, says little in-
deed for the boasted anti barbarous feelings of the age.—
Scotsman.

Yesterday morning a number of colliers de-
scended a pit, near Parkhead, which has been unwrought
for some time, in consequence of the strike, when, owing
to the accumulation of choke damp, a serious accident took
place. Several of the men were overcome by the foul air,
and were taken out lifeless. Five are stated to be tke
number of dead bodies recovered, and three are still miss-
ing.— Glaspoto Chronicle, April 17.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, APRIL 19.

John Buck naster and. James Hornsby were in-
dicted for assaulting W. H. Pyall. The prosecutor;
it appeared, is a constable, employed by a society of
Paddington coach proprietors (called " the regulars"
we believe), to prevent the improper interference of
" cads" and others in procuring passengers in the
New-road. On the day in question he was sta-
tioned at the top of Baker-street, and a passenger
being about to mount a " regular" coach, the de-
fendant Hornsby attempted to pull him away to the
coach of the other defendant, who is the owner and
driver of an " irregular" coach, which passes through
Paddington to Bayswater, upon which the prose-
cutor interfered to prevent him, when the cad shook
his fist in his face, _and Buckmaster jumping off his
box, seized him by the collar and assaulted him.
The Jury found both guilty; and the Chairman
sentenced the master to pay a fine of 101., and the
cad a fine of 6s. Bd. to the King.

Died, at Carlisle, in Water-lane, James I\lil-
- aged 45. He was a striking instance of the extent
to which self-instruction may be carried. A few months
in an obscure school in his native village, was the whole
time allotted for his education ; yet, so ardent was he in
the pursuit of learning, that, ere he had attained that
age when most young men think of entering on abstruse
studies, he had, solely by his own exertions, acquired
a thorough knowledge of the most intricate branches of
mathematics, and his ready application of which science
to mechanical purposes astonished the most experienced
mechanic. His leisure hours were chiefly employed in in-
structing others.

OTTER HUNTING.

The lovers of Otter Hunting would have had a good
day's sport had they been so fortunate as to have followed
the Presteign Hounds throughout the day on Monday
last. The pack met by appointment on the River Arrow,
under Lyonshall Park, a short distance below Kington,
where they were met by a few couples of the Kington
Hounds; the dogs tried down the river for six or seven
miles to Pembridge Bridge, when the Kington dogs re-
turned ; but the Presteign men being full of pluck, and
the dogs well known to be staunch, proceeded on the
course of the river a few miles lower, when they came on
the drag, and away they dashed full of spirit, and a finer
hunt was never seen ; the pack found in style, and kept
well on the otter for full three hours, and at length suc-
ceeded in killing as desperate a dog-otter as was ever seen
on that river. His weight was upwards of 23i1b.
