We have intelligence from Quebec to the 3d inst., six days
after the great fire, with some additional particulars. The
Committee of Relief had notified that each of the sufferers
would receive two dollars, on application. " One assertion,'
says a Quebec journal, "we may safely make, that the amount
of property lost is not so far magnified, and the sacrifice of
human life is underrated. The total lose has been computed
with the utmost nicety possible, and found to be between
one million and one million and a half of portnde I l--or, in
dollars, from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000 ! The loss of life
cannot be estimated.

The House of Lords met at Five.

Lord GARDNER explained the reason of his non.
attendance on the Glasgow-bridge Committee.
The report of the Committee on Railway Bills was
brought up. It recommended that those Bills which
could not be completed this seesion should be marked by
the Chairman of each Committee, and be proceeded with
next session from the point where investigation ter-
minated this session.

Lord WHARNCLIFFE brought in a Bill to amend the
game-laws.

The Committee on the Landlords and Tenants Com •
pensation (Ireland) Bill was appointed.
Lord PORTMAN moved the second reading of the
Landlords and Tenants Bill.
Lord BE, .0 moved that it be read a second time
that day six months.
After a short discussion their Lordships divided, when
there appeared—For the amendment, Contents 11, Non-
contents 7—majority for the amendment, 4.
Their Lordships then adjourned.
The House of Commons met at Four o'clock.

After the transaction of the private business,
The order of the day for the consideration of the re
port of the Committee on printed papers was read, and
he SOLICITOR-GENERAL moved that a writ of error be
brought against the judgment of the Court of Queen's
Bench in the case of " Howard v, Gossett."

Mr. Husst proposed the following amendment--" That
t is inexpedient to entrust the privileges of this House
,o any other tribunal than the House itself."

On a division, there appeared—for the motion, 82;
against it, 48—majority, 34.
The debate on the original motion was then resumed.

A long eliscussion followed, and eventually it was
determined that the case should be tried in a Court of
Error.

The Levant mail brings intelligence from Constantinople
to the 7th inst., Smyrna the 9th, Beyrout the 3d, and Athens
the 10th. Preparations were in progress at Conztangnople
for celebrating the marriage of the Sultana ADILE, eldest
sister of the DrirEROR, with Au PACHA, Grand• A-
dmiral of the fleet. A number of tents had been
pitched in the plain of Haydar, where the mar-
riage was to take plaee, and entertainments ware to be
given:to the Foreign Ambassadors, the Ulemas, and the
principal authorities. The accounts from Beyrout are more
favourable. An armistice had been concluded on the Ist
inst. between the Marmites (Christians) and Dram, and the
contending parties were to remain in their respective positions
until the decision of the Divan as to the terms ofreconciliation
should be proclaimed. It is said that in the course
of the late coatests a hundred villages and seventeen con-
vents had been reduced to ashes. About two-thirds of the
villages were occupied by Christians. Letters thorn Damas-
cus state that a woman who had abjured Islamism, being
threatened by the people, sought refuge in the house
of the French Consul. Crowds collected around the house,
which they were preparing to enter by force, when the autho-
rities interfered and restored tranquillity. Greece is still in a
very disturbed state. Banditti traversed some of the provinces
with impunity, and had committed great ravages. General
GuivAs had attempted another outrage by challenging Ge-
neral CALERGI to fight a duel in a room, without seconds,
which, of course, was refused. CoLErri and METAXA had
formed a coalition, but it was not supposed that they could
remain long on good terms.

Accounts from Madrid, of the 19th, announce that MAR-
TINEZ DE LA Ross had left for Barcelona on that day, to
joie the royal party. Rumours prevailed in the eapital that
Carlist risings had taken place in several of the northern pro-
vinces, but they are not entitled to any credit.
Tie Three per Cents. closed at 31% for cash, and 32 LA
at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 21 for cash, and 21 13-16
at 60 days ; and the Debt without Interest at 7 at 60 days.

The intelligenee brought by the Paris papers is not im-
portant. The Chamber of Deputies had, after some discus-
sion, agreed on the Bills to be postponed till next session;
and among these are the Trans-Atlantic Steamers Bill, the
Canal Bill, and that to prevent the adulteration of wine.
They afterwards proceeded to discuss the estimates for the
department of Public Instruction, when M. DR LA MEURTHE
moved an additional sum of 100,000,000 f. for primary
schools, but the amendment was rejected. The Chamber
of Peers had passed by a great majority the Great
Northern Railway Bill. Only five Members voted against
it. The carpenters' strike still continued, and it appears the
infection had spread into the provinces. On some of the
new Mats of railway the carpenters mid Otha Mowers had

On Wednesday. the Three per Cents. closed on the Paris
Bourse at 83f. 80e. ; the New Loan at 84f. 25c. ; the Five

There are no later accounts to-day from any quarter, ex-
cept those by the Great Western steamer.
The arrival of supplies of nitrate of soda from the African
coast is looked for with interest, as they will powerfully
compete with that from South America, a quantity of which,
as we perceive, has just come to hand.
The Funds are still very quiet. Consols, 991 1A ; New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 102 t 0.% ; Exchequer-bills,

The Foreign Bonds are quiet. Spanish have been
neglected. Mexican are 37% 3A ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. 63% %.
The Share Market is drooping, and there is still a dispo-
sition to sell. Among the new lines, the Manchester and
Birmingham Continuation, which has received such powerful
support in the provinces, as shown by the statements at a
meeting given in another column of The Sun, seems to rank
well, and its connexion with the Old Manchester and Bir-
mingham line will doubtless prove of considerable import-
ance to it.
