The quotations of the Public Securities have been rather
firm this morning. For the Account Consols have been done
at 99 4, and the same for transfer to-morrow. The Re-
duced Three per Cents. have advanced to 98%, and the New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. to 101%. The premium
upon Exchequer-bills has been done at 575. to 595. premium.
Bank Stock has been heavy at a fall from 2101 to 2091/ 210.
A good market has ruled to-day for most of the Foreign
Stocks. Spanish Bonds have been sold at 30k, and the
Three per Cents. at 401/.. These rates show an improve-
ment on the values of last week, as the Ministry at Madrid
intend to confine the expenditure within narrower limits
than was expected. The Portuguese Converted Bonds have
been at 65; the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 63 • the
Four per Cents. at 97%; Mexican at 36% A ; and 'Bra-
zilian at 87%.
The settlement in the Railway Share Market is going off
very well indeed. The market is extremely firm, as our list
of prices will show.

A piece of ground for the erection of an Episcopal
church for sailors of the port of London has been obtained in
the new street, near the London Docks. The situation is
admirably selected, as the church will be seen from the
vessels in the docks; and the greater number of our neglected
seamen, those who are employed in the distant foreign
voyages, reside in in this locality. The sittings are to be
entirely free.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE OF LORDS, April 14.
Their Lordships met at Five o'clock.
Several Bills, amongst which was one for affording
better protection to works of art, were brought up from
the Commons.

M AYNOOTH.
The Marquia of ANGLESEY presented several pe-
titions against any further grant to Maynooth.
The Bishop of LONDON presented several petitions,
from different parts of the country, against the sale of
spirituous liquors on the Lord's day. The Right Rev.
Prelate also presented petitions against any further
grant to Maynooth, and against the Irish Education Bill.
Lord BROUGHAM presented a number of petitions
against any further grant to Maynooth. The Noble
Lord did not agree with the prayer of the petitioners.
Lord ARUNDELL presented several petitions to the
like effect, and also disclaimed any participation in the
prayer of the petitioners.
ENTAILED ESTATES.
Lord REDESDALE gave notice, on behalf of the
Duke of Richmond, who was unavoidably absent, that on
Thursday neat his Noble Friend would move for a Select
Committee to inquire into the expediency of pass-
inm a legislative enactment to tmpower the holder,
of' entailed estates to raise money upon them for the
purpose of effecting permanent improvements on the land.
The Marquis of BREADALBANE presented peti-
tions front several towns and congregations in Scotland
against the grant to Maynooth.
The Bishop of Llandaff also presented petitions against
the grant to Maynooth ; as did the Marquis of Nor-
manby and Lord Monteagle ; the last stating his
difference with the petitioners, and declaring that he
regretted that the grant had been so long withheld, and
that he should give the grant his most hearty support.
LUNATIC ASYLUMS IN SCOTLAND.

Lord MONTEAGLE presented a petition from the
Commissioners of the county of Fife, which com-
plained that there was no provision for the care
of criminal lunatics, and stated that there were no
means provided fur their recovery. One criminal
was, from want of any other place of confinement, placed
in a solitary cell. He nas a monomaniac, and on all
other subjects, except that on which he was deranged,
he was a most intelligent man. The Commissioners
had done their utmost to provide him with some other
place of confinement, but their effbrts were ineffectual, and
he thought the Government should take the subject up.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE regretted that there was to
provision. Until the 39th Geo. 111. there was no enact
went on the subject ; but that was insufficient ; and he
promised that the subject should receive the best atten-
tion of the Government ; and in the meantime they
would make every inquiry so as to provide a remedy.
RAILWAYS.

Lord BROUGHAM gave notice that he should to-
morrow move for the adoption of certain standing ord( rs
respecting railways, and that he should found a motion
on the subject for a future period.
GRANT TO MAYNOOTH. _ _

The Bishop of St. DAVID'S presented a petiti,,n
against any further grant to Maynooth. The Right
Rev. Prelate wholly dissented from the prayer of the
petitioners, although he agreed the object of the peti-
tioners might be good.
The Bishop of HEREFORD presented petitions from
Ludlow and other places against the grant to Maynooth.
The Marquis CAMDEN presented a similar petition,
but could not concur with its prayer.
Lord DENMAN presented similar petitions.
The Earl of Si'. GERMANS also presented several
petitions, but disagreed with the prayer of the petitioners.
