GOVERNMENT OF IRELAND.

Lord J. RUSSELL said, with respect to the notice of mo-
tion which he had given for the 15th instant, he wished to
state to the house that on that day he would move the fol.,
lowing resolution :—" That in the opinion of this house it is
expedient to persevere in those principles which have guided
the executive government of Ireland of late years, and which
have produced the effectual administration of the law, and the
general improvement of that part of the United Kingdom."—
(Cries of hear, hear, hear, and laughter, from the opposition
benches.)
In answer to a question by Mr. E. TENNENT,
Mr. P. THoMsoN said only parts of reports from the hand-
loom commissioners had been received ; but the whole were
shortly expected, and no time would be lost in laying them
before the house.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 7.

On the arrival of the Liverpool Steamer from New York, many of
the holders withdrew their stocks from the market, and the Trade
having been induced to purchase more freely than for some time
past, prices of the lower and middling qualities of American have
advanced id to id per lb, whilst the better descriptions, although
offered more sparingly, remain without change ; Brazil has parti-
cipated partially in the above improvement, but the ordinary qualities
of Surat have declined id per lb. 500 American have been taken
on speculation, 650 American, 100 Pernambuco, 100 Carthagepa, and
800 Surat for export.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY again called attention to
the case of those officers and others who had been inveigled
into the Spanish service, and said he should move for returns
of what had been done on the subject.
Lord MELBOURNE said that the committee appointed by
the Spanish government and by the officers had proceeded in
their labours ; but as our government had no coutroul or
part in the proceedings, neither he nor that house had any
power to order returns ; his lordship, however, thought he
could procure the accounts required, and he was perfectly
ready to do so.
Earl STANHOPE presented the petition, of which he had
given notice, regarding the poor law commissioners.
Lord LYNDHURST, pursuant to notice, moved for a series
of returns respecting the state of business, &c., in the Courts
of Chancery and Exchequer. In the Court of Chancery, in
1750, the amount locked up by proceedings there was
£8,000,000; now the amount is X 40,000,000! His lordship
proposed that there should be two new judges ; one to assist
the Lord Chancellor by hearing appeals from the Vice-chan-
cellor, &c: ; and the other to aid in the equity part of the
Court of Exchequer.
Lord Brougham, the Master of the Rolls, Lord Melville,
&c., spoke on the state of the courts and the arrears, and
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he should be ready to
co-operate in any plans that would accelerate equity busi-
ness, and diminish the evils complained of; but he thought
that an additional judge in equity in the Court of Exchequer
would be useless. It would be better to transfer that addi-
tional judge and the equity business of the exchequer to the
Court of Chancery.

Lord LYNDEURST observed that be was not prepared to
acquiesce in giving two new judges to the Court of Chancery
—it would be better to try what first could be effected by one.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he had made such ar-
rangements that he should commence the diminution of the
arrears of his court after Wednesday next.
The motion for papers was then agreed to, and their lord-
ships adjourned till Monday.

CHARTISTS.

Viscount DUNGANNON moved for a return of any commu-
nications received by her majesty's Secretary of State for the
Home Department, from the various local authorities in
England and Wales, relative to the assembling together and
arming of certain persons denominating themselves chartists.
Lord J. RUSSELL observed that it would be quite impos-
sible for this correspondence to be produced, as it was strictly
of a confidential nature. The house would see that the ends
of justice could not be obtained if documents of this kind,
containing information of a confidential nature, were made
public. (Hear, hear.)
Motion withdrawn.
USURY LAWS PARTIAL REPEAL BILL.

Mr. RICE rose, pursuant to his notice, for leave to bring
in a bill to make perpetual the act of 1 Victoria, cap. 80, to
exempt certain bills of exchange and promissory notes from
the operation of the usury laws. The right hon. gentleman
said this was a subject of the greatest importance to the com-
mercial world. By the act as it at present stood, all bills
not exceeding three months' date were exempted from the
operation of the usury laws. Now, it would be in the recol-
lection of hon. members, that an attempt had been made
about two years ago to extend that exemption to bills of a
longer date ; and a bill to that effect had passed through this
housc, but had been lost in another place. During the late
commercial difficulties of the country, had it not been for the
small relaxation of the usury laws to which he had alluded,
those difficulties would have been greatly increased. (Hear,
hear.) On this account, therefore, he now proposed to ex-
tend the exemption from the usury laws to bills of 12 months'
date, and also to re-affirm the original p‘ropysitiop_oifientkka
tiA-eargivreViatelluneVitelgit Llie could to the commercial
world by a total repeal of those laws; for he thought there
ought to be as free a trade in money as in any other article.
Leave was then given to bring in the bill.—The house ad-
journed at ten minutes to one o'clock.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 8.

This week we have had only a moderate arrival Of Foreign Wheat
and Flour: and of British Grain, Meal, and Flour the supplies are
quite unimportant. At Tuesday's market we quoted all descriptions
of Wheat down about 3d per bushel, with only a retail sale ; but,
subsequently, we have had numerous buyers of this article from a
distance, and, at yesterday's market, the sales were rather exten-
sive, at a further small abatement. Fine English Wheat is worth
lOs gd to lls 3d, Baltic new gs 6d to 30s, Marianopoli and Hungarian
Ss 4d to gs, and Odessa (hard and soft) 7s to Ss per 701bs.—Flour has
met rather a slow sale, and prices must be noted full is per sack
lower.—Oats were, on Tuesday, Id to 2d per bushel dearer, and Oat-
meal full is per load, which improvement has been maintained, the
stocks of each article here being in a very reduced compass : the
best mealing Oats are worth 4s 3d to 4s 4d per 451bs, and Oatmea

NATIONAL EDUCATION.

Our friends in many parts of the country will be inquir-
ing what is to be done with various petitions, still in pro-
gress, against the " Scheme of National Education ?" We
cannot better reply to the inquiry than by placing before
them the admirable resolutions of the United Committees of
the Wesleyan Methodists, which were adopted at their meet-
ing yesterday morning :

1. That the committees have learned, with great satis-
faction, that Lord John Russell has intimated the intention
of the government to withdraw the particular plan contained
in the minute of the committee of Privy Council; and
heartily congratulate the friends and the Christian public, on
the success which has hitherto attended their exertions in
opposition to a scheme which, after all attempts to explain it,
was, in the judgment of the united committees, liable to in-
superable objections.

;4- kn h .4-01
measures which may be ultimately proposed to Parliament,
that our friends should immediately forward any other peti-
tions which are in course of preparation, in order that the
House of Commons may be fully apprised of the general
concurrence of the Wesleyan body in the great principles
which were maintained in the resolutions adopted by the
united committees, at their meeting of Tuesday, May 28."

THE DEITY.

BY THE REV. R. MONTGOMERY.

Stupendous God ! how shrinks our bounded sense
To track the triumphs of Omnipotence ;
From sky-clad mountain to the deepest den,
From the mean insects to immortal men ;
Bless'd with Thy brightest smile, dare we confine
Paternal Providence, supreme as thine ?
Far as the fancy flies, or life-stream flows,
From Georgia's desert to the Greenland snows,
Where space exists, Thine eyes of mercy see,—
Creation lives, and moves, and breathes in Thee !
Yes ! pause and think, within one fleeting hour,
How vast a universe obeys Thy power :
Unseen, but felt, Thine interfused control
Works in each atom, and pervades the whole ;
Expands the blossom and erects the tree,
Conducts each vapour and commands each sea ;
Beams in each ray, bids whirlwinds be unfilisl,
Unrolls the thunder, and upheaves a worldillplt,
E'en now, while tragic Midnight walks the land,
And spreads the wings of darkness with her wand,
What scenes are witness'd by Thy watchful eye !
What millions waft to Thee the prayer and sigh !
Some gaily vanish to an unfear'd grave,
Fleet as the sun-flash o'er a summer wave ;
Some wear out life in smiles, and some in tears,
Some dare with hope, while others droop with fears ;
The vagrant 's roaming in his tatter'd vest,
The babe is sleeping on its mother's breast ;
The captive mutering o'er his rust-worn chain,
The widow weeping for her lord again,
While many a mourner shuts his languid eye,
To dream of heaven, and view it ere he die :
And yet, no sigh can swell, no tear-drop fall,
But thou wilt see, and guide, and solace all !

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-THURSDAY.

Mr. MACAULAY took the oaths and his seat for the city
of Edinburgh.

LONDON BRIDGE APPROACHES BILL

Mr. J. C. HERMES moved the third reading of the Lon
don Bridge Approaches Bill.

Sir R2lNGiis objected to the third reading of the bill.
It contained provisions which went to authorise the demoli-
tion of a church near the Royal Exchange—a church that
was numerously attended, in which divine service was per-
formed four times a-week, and which was attended by 700
persons on Tuesday last.
Lord DUNGANNON moved, as an amendment, that it be
read a third time that day three months.—The house divided
—for the third reading, 82 ; for the amendment, 33 ; majority
for the bill, 49, which was then read a third time and passed.

THE LATE DTSTURBANCES.

On the motion of Mr. was agreed
upon to her Majesty, for a return of the correspondence
which had taken place between Lord John Russell and cer-
tain lords-lieutenant of counties, &c., relating to the late
disturbances.

THE LATE MINISTERIAL CHANGE.

Mr. WAKLEY was anxious to know from the noble lord
the secretary for the home department, and from the right
hon. baronet the member for Tamworth, whether either of
them would offer any opposition to a motion for an address
to the crown, praying that her Majesty would be graciously
pleased to direct that a copy of the correspondence which
had passed between her Majesty and the right hon. baronet,
Sir R. Peel, relative to the arrangements which were made,
or were to have been made, for the formation of a new ad-
ministration, be laid on the table of that house.
Lord J. RUSSELL : I should certainly oppose any such
motion.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. WAKLEY : Then I beg to give notice that I shall
bring it before the house.—(" Hear, hear," and laughter.)

ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOPS.

Sir R. INGLIS wished to put a question to the noble lord,
connected with a subject which he (Sir R. Inglis) considered
of some importance. The house was aware that a certain
address had been presented to the high sheriff of the county
of Mayo, the first name to which was that of the lord lieute-
nant of the county. The next, as reported in the Freeman's
Journal, was " John Archbishop of Tuam." He wished to
ask whether the noble lord had instructed the Attorney-
General for Ireland to take any proceedings in consequence
of the assumption of that title, in reference to the clause in
the Roman Catholic act which prohibited Roman Catholic
prelates from assuming the titles of protestant dignitaries.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL had not seen the requisition to
which the honourable baronet had alluded ; but he would
state, that the government had not given any directions to
the Attorney-General, nor had they communicated with the
lord-lieutenant of Ireland on the subject ; and unless there
was an absolute necessity for so doing, he should not think
it necessary to take any steps in reference to it. On one
occasion, when an application was sent to him by a person
acting on the behalf of Dr. M`Hale, asking that certain
petitions should be laid before his late majesty, that indivi-
dual had taken the title of Archbishop of Tuam ; and he
(Lord John Russell) immediately wrote to him, stating that
he could not present the petition to his majesty, as he had
assumed a name to which by law he was not entitled.—
(Hear, hear.) Therefore, whenever it became him officially,
lie should entirely deny that Dr. AP Hale had any right to
assume that title ; but he could not agree in the propriety or
expediency of instituting prosecutions on such a subject.
(Cheers.)

LITERARY NOTICES.

Floreston :or the New Lord of the Manor. Dedicated
to the Landed Proprietors of the United Kingdom.
London : Rickerby. 1839.
This is very aptly designated " a tale of humanity,"
comprising as it does the history of a rural revolution
from vice and misery to virtue and happiness. The
principal design of the author seems to be, to expose,
through the medium of a novel, the evils of the new
poor-law system, and the complicated sufferings which
it inflicts upon the inmates of the " Bastiles." In this
object we believe he has fully succeeded, though we
cannot subscribe to all his opinions, some of which are
extremely fanciful. There is a charm in the style of
this volume which would carry the reader through the
story almost in spite of himself. Some of the scenes
are extremely rich, and most of the characters are ably
delineated. The pictures of rural life embodied in this
admirable tale are characterised by great fidelity. Those
who are interested in promoting the welfare of the
poor (and who is not ?) will derive much benefit from
consulting this agreeable volume.

The Grammar of Law. By a Barrister. London :
Rickerby. 1839.
This admirable compendium cannot fail to become
popular. It will be found of the highest utility to the
law student in particular, whilst the information which
it conveys is almost indispensable to the general reader.
The volume contains the first principles of natural,
religious, and political law ; together with a synopsis
of the common and statute law. We know of no work
better adapted for a text-book to the numerous and
important alterations which have been made, within
the last few years, in our statutes, and more especially
in the penal laws. This work will be found an inva-
luable acquisition in scholastic establishments. The
clearness and conciseness of its definitions and illus-
trations are such as to bring the subject within the
comprehension of even a schoolboy; whilst the legal
acumen displayed throughout renders it a valuable
assistant even to the professional man.

HORRID TRAGEDY AT HYDE.

(From the Stockport Advertiser)
MORE WORKINGS OF THE NEW POOR LAW.—Between
three and four o'clock on Monday morning, as some boatmen
were passing along the canal at Flowery Field, Newton, they
perceived a bonnet, cap, and dress, lying upon the towing-
path ; and a little lower down, they discovered the dead
bodies of a female and a child. They then procured a cart
belonging to a man named Hitchens, and the corpses were
removed to Shawcross' public-house, near to the canal-
bridge. On a further examination of the bodies, :t was
found that the infant had been closely tied to the mother's
breast as if in the act of sucking, in which felicitous state the
little one was launched into eternity, whilst the mother was
identified as Betty Ashton.
• It appears that the deceased had formed an inWrcourse
with a collier named Joseph Dunn, residing in that town-
ship, by whom she had had twins in January last, and one
had since died. Dunn had abandoned her, and formed a
connection with one Betty Hitchens, sister to his late wife,
and daughter of the owner of the cart alluded to, and the first
person who identified the body of the deceased ; the unhappy
woman had, in consequence of Dunn's discontinuance of the
usual support, been unable to maintain herself ; and her
friends, in consequence of her disgrace, and being also in
humble circumstances, had disowned her, and she was re-
duced to a pitiable state of destitution. In this extremity,
she went to Dunn on Saturday night to the Pine Apple pub-
lic-house, in Hyde, where he was drinking with Betty
Hitchens, and stated her forlorn condition to him. He
ministered her some sustenance that evening and the next
day, when some " words" took place between them on
Sunday night, at his lodgings, in the presence of an elderly
female.

About nine o'clock, after expressing herself in some signi-
ficant terms, she took away her infant, and left the place,
suffering under a painful sense of injustice ; but refused to
say whereto she was hastening, only that she would not again
trouble him, and did not know where she .was going.—Dunn
went to bed ; and at four o'clock in the morning he was
awoke with the intelligence that Betty Barlow and her infant
child had been found drowned in the canal.
The deceased was twenty years of age, and a very hand-
some young woman.

ELECTION PETITIONS TRIALS BILL

The house went into a committee on this bill, and a long
discussion took place on a proposal to appoint legal assessors
to act as chairmen of election committees.

This was opposed by Sir ROBERT PEEL, Lord JOHN Rus-
SELL, and others ; and finally the bill passed through
committee as it originally stood.

REGISTRATION OF ELECTORS BILL.

In reply to some observations from Col. Sibthorp, Lord
JoHN RUSSELL stated that if he proceeded with a measure
for the amendment of the registration of electors this session,
it would not be with the bill now before the house. He
should probably move to have the order of the day for the
present bill discharged with the view of introducing another.
He gave no pledge on the subject.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FnmAy.

There was an immense muster of members, and stormy
discussion on the Cheltenham Improvement Bill, which was
lost on a division, the numbers being—ayes, 177 • noes, 186.
Lord J. RUSSELL said, in answer to Lord Dungannon's
inquiry, that it was his intention to make his statements re-
garding the government plan for national education on Fri-
day. He did not expect that the discussion on the Canada
resolutions would last beyond Thursday night.
Sir E. SUGDEN inquired whether any measure was in con-
templation respecting foreign lotteries.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that attention
had been directed to the subject, but there were so many
means of evasion that he feared remedy would be difficult.
Mr. HERRIES inquired whether the government had di-
rected any attention to the report of last session on metro-
polis improvements?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that it had
been referred to the commissioners of woods and forests, who
were ready to afford every facility in their power.
Colonel PERCEVAL directed attention to the complaints
against the prevalent practice of persons; carrying sticks laden
with lead; and asked whether the government intended to
propose the re-enactment of the 11th Geo. 11., c. 10, or any
other remedy ?
Lord MORPETH answered that he hoped to have soon to
embody their recornmenclatinna for renve.rly in a hill
The committee on the Prisons (Scotland) Bill was deferred

to be read a second time that day " three months ;" the

Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that he could not fix any specific
day for further considering the Ecclesiastical Duties and Re-
venues Bill.
The house (after an adjournment till half-pnst eight o'clock,)
then proceeded to hear counsel against the second reading of
the Jamaica Bill. Mr. Burge and two other counsel were in
attendence ; Mr. Burge addressed the house at great length.
This occupied nearly the remainder of the sitting. It was
arranged that the debate should be taken on Monday, on the
question of going into committee on the bill.

LEAD MINES.—We rejoice to learn that the Mona Mining
Company, who have been indefatigable in their exertions, and
unsparing in expense, in searching for minerals on the Bishop's
barony, are likely to be amply remunerated for all their care,
trouble, and anxiety, by the discovery of a very rich vein of
lead ore, on the estate of Ellerslie. A piece of the ore has
been submitted to several mineralogists, who state that there
is not a richer sample to be met with in any of the mines now
at work on the island. We have repeatedly asserted that the
bowels of this island contain an inexhaustible source of
wealth, and it only requires spirit and perseverance like that,
practised by this company, to attain it.--Mom's; Herald.
