In a Fourth Edition of yesterday's Sun we were
enabled, by means of an extraordinary Express from
Liverpool, to publish news from the United States in
twelve days from Boston, and little more than nine from
Halifax. The papers conveying that intelligence were
brought to Liverpool by one of the four steam-ships
(the Columbia.) employed for the conveyance of the
mails and passengers between Europe and North America,
and nothing can afford a stronger proof of the efficiency
of the vessels on that. station than the present extraor-
dnary voyage across the Atlantic. We are gratified to
find that Lady Bagot and-family have selected one of
these steam ships (the Acadia) to convey them to Canada
to join the Governor-General, Sir Charles Begot, who
will meet her Ladyship at Halifax. She sails from Li-
verpool on the sth proximo.
THE PARLIAMENT, THE PRESS, AND THE POST.—
The Post of this morning has a queer, crotchety article
on the subject of the Liberty of the Press, in the course
of which our fantastic Contemporary, having occasion
to remark on the right of the people to petition the
House of Commons, observes, that there are some who
think this House " the most sapient and the most justice-
loving Assembly on the face of the earth, which does
not happen to be exactly our opinion." This sneer
comes with peculiar ill grace from a Journal
which was among the first to hail, the triumph of
Toryism at the last elections; and to predict all sorts of
blessings from the benignant and patriotic influence of
dal Peel majority. We thought that the Post would
nevtr have been weary of singing the praises of a House
containing so many Tories—that it would have regarded
it es a House built up after its own express fashion, ac-
cording to its own dearest wh,h—and launched its
heaviest bolt of wrath at the head of the monster who
dared even to hint that it was not absolute perfection.
But we were mistaken, it seems. So far from being
remarkable for its sagacity, the House of Commons is
not even ordinarily " sapient," notwithstanding its Tory
majority ; and so far from being just in its proceedings,
it is not even " justice-loving !" Verily our Contempo-
rary is hard to please. The last House was not to his
taste ; and for the present House he professes a nearly
equal disrelish.. Does its Liberalism offend him ? Is he
shocked at its squeamish abhorrence of bribery and cor-
ruption ? Not so, but he hoped that it would have distin-
ginelicl itself by the inveteracy of its Toryism ; that it
would have carried matters with a high hand, in the old
boroughmongering fashion •• that it would have supported
monopolies of all kinds; and restored the dear delightful
tin v s of jobbing. Because it has not done this the
Post's ultra-Toryism is up in armsohd he is now perfectly
ready to agree in opinion witkethe. Liberals, that the
House of. Commons—the Rollie of his own adoption—is,
after all, "no better than it abould be." Then, as regards
the Press ! On this point,Aoo, our Contemporary is
all effervescence and exacerbation. He is disgusted, he
tells us, with the excess of liberty it enjoys. It is too
unencumbered in its movements. Manacles would be-
come it vastly. An Ex:Officio or so, drawn up in the
Attorney-General's neatest and most stringent manner,
wculd be the greatest blessing that could befal it. If
these be our Contemporary's real opinions, the remedy,
so far as he himself is concerned, is easy. Let him
ship himself off to St. Petersburgh, with his stock of
editors, reporters,'compositors, pressmen, &c.; and then
lie will find himself at once in the full enjoyment of that
speciei of wholesome restraint which he so much desi-
derates. With the knout, the dungeon, and the Siberian
mines in prospect (should he at any time so far forget
himself as to discover that the Russian authorities are
not immaculate, and the Russian system of despotism
not the very perfection of enlightened government) he
will—with his present queer notions respecting the free-
dom of the Press—be as happy as the day is long. We
expect shortly to see him figuring in his own columns,
among the " fashionable departures' for St. Petersburgh.
Her Majesty received Addresses on the Throne this
day at Buckingham Palace. Afterwards, at half-past
two o'clock, her Majesty held a Privy Council, which
was attended by the usual Cabinet Ministers and Great
011icerS. This evening the Queen gives a grand ban-
quet to the Queen Dowager Adelaide and a large party.
tier Majesty the Queen Dowager and her brother, the
Duke of Saxe 11(4141w-en, and his Duchess, arrived in
tow ti this day, to attend the entertainment.
AN. EARLY AND A BOUNTIFUL HARVEST is at present
p: ()raised to us almost to a certainty. The prospect has
operated most favourably in many places. In Ireland it
is described as a peace preserver, The fine weather, and
the luxuriant vegetation, have done something to soothe
the hunger, and assuage the sufferings of the people of
England. But they are Sc far gone that even the bounties
of Providence can scarcely gladden their hearts. They
will have little or no share in them. They have nothing

wherewith to buy of the abundance which heaven showers
on the earth, all of which is appropriated by others, and
they are shared out. The number of the destitute, and
their destitution is increasing every day, so that by the
time the harvest is ripened they will be utterly deprived
of the means of purchasing any part of it, and it is pos-
sible that, while they are starving, food may be consi-
dered as a mere drug by the farmers.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The proceedings of the French Government, with regard to
the duties on our manufactures, has had a further t ffect on the
prices of the Funds, and Consols hs.re been done as low as
904. Merchants generally do not attach any great importanee
to the alteration, but :peculators in Stocks have taken advan-
tage of it to create a degree of distrust. A purchase to a small
extent has somewhat improved the market, and the price of
Consols now is 91 for the Opening ex die. ; Three per Cent.
Reduced, 9li 91%; Three-and-a, Half per Cents. Reduced,
100% 1011*; Bank Stock. 166 167 ; India Bonds, 25 ; Ex-

Nothing done in Foreign S:curities, except a purchase in
Dutch Twt,-and-a:Half per Cents., at 52i, and Brazilian, 64i ;
Illsxican is -noted 364 37.
This is settling day in Shares., but is of course of no moment.
The transactions have been, Eastern Counties. 9; South Wes-
ter ii,l6oi 60 ; South Eastern, 24 24* ; and Brighton, 344 35.
To-morrow being settling day in the Bonds, the market has
teen in a more agitated state than usual. It is said that since
lts3s the account has never been so bad ; one failure was an-
niesnced yesterday, and, from the violent fluctuations, no sur-
prise ran be created if more follow. The quotations nomina

By comparing the return of the weekly average liabilities and
assets of the Bank of England, fur the twelve weeks, end-
ing t• e lbth inst., with that for the similar period, terminat-
ing 2lst May, it is seen that the balance in favour of the
Berl is less by 122,000/. ; the difference between 2,695,0001.
and 2.817,000/., arising from an increase in the liabilities of
225,0 M., while the assets have improved but 103,000!. The
particular items are an increass in the circulation of 259,0001., the
difference between 17,795,0001. and 17,336,0001. The deposits
are less by 34,000/,, the difference between 8,011,000/, and
fii045,000/. ; the securities have decreased 185,00 C/., the
diffeet nee between 21,18100/. and 21,366,000/., while
the Lullior, is greater by !288,000/., the difference between
7,320,0001., and 7,p32,000/. • Beyond the first and last items
uo particular remark is necessary. The increase In the cireu-
-I,tiou would appear to be attribntable to an improvement in
trade, and it must he admitted that skits' the commencement of
the month this demand for the staple articles has increased, and
the produce markets is4como decidedly brisker. The increase
in (no bullion must. also be 1,0„Ilted upon as favourable, since
in this retitru it can only have arises-, from importations, and
not from paynterit.s into the Bank of light gold, consequent
ugon the late proeiam.tion. The neat accounts will
dui:6,44ls show an imusen;.e. iccrease over the present,
but they ;Till not be so correct; inasmuch as the Bank
will have had s large amount pass thioegh its hands in
at:change. In cotooarison with the corresponding period
of 1t.441, the circulation is now greater by 1,163,000/. ;
the deposits by 793,0001., the securities less by 421,000/., and
the builion great& by 2,222,000/.
The letters from New York, by the Colombia, are not so
satisfs.stor.y as those last received. It was generally beliveed
that the President would veto the Tariff Bill at present before
Coreiress, and that there was some question whether there
would be any duty on fosazgn goods after the end or the month,
should the laws remain as they are now. The Compromise
Act declares that after the 30th June, 1342, duties shall be
assessed on the value of the goods at the port where they shall
ho entered, under such tegulations as shall be prescribed by law.
No tegulations have been made, and the position is that no
duty can be collected until they shall he.
The suspension of specie payments by the bank; at New
Orleans is said to have created an extraordinary panic in that
city, and_hafl a tendency to destroy what little confidence was
placed in therd, This measure had sows)), injured the trade
and credit of New Orleans, from which, it was thought, it
would not soon recover.

rt,to all parts of the country, and in the Atlantic cities, there
ur.s a gtneral complaint. of a depression in every branch of trade,
and there oas no =Mediate prospect of abt ttas state of things.

CIIANCERY COLIRT-(TE-11S DAY.)

The Lord-Chancellor, after disposing of several lunatic peti-
tions, proceeded to hear the farther arguments in the part-
heard petition of

THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. VISCOUNT CANTERBURY.

'I his case, our readers will recollect, came on before the
Court, some time since, upon the petition of the Attorney-
General against the claim set up by Viscount Canterbury for
compensation in consequence of the fire at the Hc.uses of -Par-
liament during the time his Lordship was Speaker.
Sergeant Sir T. WILDE resumed his address on behalf of the
Noble Viscount, and had not concluded when our Evening
Edi, ion went to press.
