Mr. gastetory; PEEL moved the third reading of the Offence'
against the Person Bill.
Ur. W. S• I ITH objected to the Bill that it did not sufficiently
provide fur the punishment of persons guilty of cruelty to appren
flees, or other children under their tare. The Hon. Nlenifser then
proposed a Clause, declaring that persons guilty of starving, ur
otherwise cruelly punishing children under their care, should he
liable to be imprisoned with or without hard labour, for any period
not exceeding four years, or to the payment of a fine.
After a few words from Mr. Pres, Mr. H. BATIRT. Mr. MAR-
TIN. and the SOLICITOR.GCNERAL, the clause was withdrawn.
The Bill was then read a third time Snd passed.
The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the
}louse adjourned at a QUARTILE PAST 0141 O'CLOCK till Monday next.

LONDON.
SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1828.

STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The very great scarcity of Stock, which still continues this morn-
ing, has the effect of improving the market. Consols, whit* left
off yesterday at 871 for the Account in the house, and 87/ in the
alley, opened this morning at 874,and soon after were done at 87i 1:
at present may be quoted at 871, alternately buyers and sellers.'
CITY, HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.
It is stated, with some confidence, that Mr. Sraavroan CAIOII/NI

is going to tate his departure for Corfu, and that Lord ATLINSURT
g 0 to the bead-quarters of the Russian army : each of them is
supposed to be invested with important missions.
The braving of prices of the Rentes on the 4th were—Five per
Cents, 104 f. Three per Cents, 71f. 10.
There has been a fall in Consols this morning of 4 per cent. In
the early part of the day they were done at 874 4, and afterwards
wept down to 874 to 4. At present they may may be quoted at
574 4. This decline is attributed to parties realizing, and frock
not being so scarce as yesterday.

For the honour of the country, we rejoice that
the Bill for granting a Pension to Mr. CANNING'S
• Family has been read a second time without a divi-
sion. Independently of the peculiar circumstances
of this case stated by the Duke of WELLINGTON,
vie do think it argues but littre of a generous feeling,
or a respect for the armory of the illustrious dead, to
enter into details of the late Minister's early political
career, or to set up the plea of economy to a grant of
s.oopl. a year ; as if Great Britain was too poor to
afford a tribute of its gratitude to a Minister, whose
name is associated with a course of policy that has
called forth the admiration of the World. We trust
England will never so far forget her character as not
to venerate the memory of those whose lives and fortunes
bate been sactificed to her service.

A more indecorous coarse has seldom been pursued
by Mr. Hums than last night, in criticising and inquiring
into the furniture of the;Bing's Palaces, and actually
talking of the prices of the chairs in his MAJESTY'S
apartments. So long as Royalty is to be upheld in this
country, let it be done in a splendour worthy of a great
nation, and of the Monarch of a great people. It is
really disgusting to hear these attempts to penetrate
into the privacy of the Palace, and attack his MAJESTY'S
personal comforts. The attempt met with no partisans
in the House, nu: will it find many, we will venture to
say, in the country. •

The details given in the LetaLurg Gazette of the Rus-
in victory over the Turks, appear less entitled to
pa& than ever ; another day has passed over and
no eenfiimation of the eissatz has arrived—on the
aneccary. 'German Papers of the 34 instant. aoe news
from Si. Petersburgh to the 20th ultimo, were re-
ceived last night, but they are entirely arkor as to the
reported ♦ictory; they do not contain even a rumour of
a skirmish, or indeed any new: of intervst from the
!Ruth or the Danube, and we -bay now 'mums that

whatever events may have taken place since the date of
the Lenzbirg Gazette bulletin, that document is a (Ali-
cation.

The French Official Paper, the Messager des Chambres,
informs us that orders had been conveyed to Marseilles
by the telegraph, for t',e transports freighted by the
Government to proceed in three days to Toulon.—
" The expedition," it is added, " is decidedly going to
sail, but its destination is unknown." The Gazette de
France of Thursday speaks of formidable military pre•
parations, and mentions a report that a camp of fifty
thousand men is about to be formed in the Department
of the Var.

We received this morning German Papers to the Ist
inst. Their contents, of which the subjoined are ex.
•
tracts, are of very little importance

AUGSBURG, MAT. 30.

The Austrian Observer confirms the news already
given in the istgemeine Zeitung, of the occupation of
Bucharest on the 12th of May, by a Russian corps of
3,000 men under General Geisman, and adds—" The
news-spread two days before, that thirty Turks. from
Silistria had come to Kalarasch and surrounded that
village, spread such terror among the inhabitants Of
Bucharest, that most of them took flight with the
greatest precipitation ; it soon appeared, however, that
the Turks, who were really only thirty in number, had
come to Kalaraich, merely for the purpose of removing

le boats and mills which were on the Wallachian side
of the river, to Silistria, on the Turkish side. Several
Turks, chiefly traders, had collected about 500 head of
cattle in the district of Jalomitz, and were preparing to
convey them across the Danube, but they were pre-
vented by the Pacha of Silistria, who commanded them
on pain of death to restore all the cattle to the ownqrs.—
