Transit trade is wholly prohibited, and though the
Reis Effendi said only a few days ago, that the passage
is free. and that the Bosphorus never basibeeselosed,
the aunouncement by the Dutch, Austrian, and Sardi-
nian legations of the above conditions is equivalent to a
probibitioo, since it is clear that oo Captain will think of
availing himself of this pretended favour. The trade of
Odessa and Smyrna must be seined by these circa's:-
solaces. The indemnities for the cargoes of cora which
hate been taken from the European ships, will, accord.
log to all appearances, never be gipen.
The Reis Effendi by a circular has invited the Euro-pean legations to give him an elect list of all their sub-
jects in the capital, and in the provinces, in order, h•
rays, to facilitate the exercise of the protection which the
orte has promised to the Franks. This demand, the
clue object of which they fear that they are not ac-
quainted with, embarrasses the European Envoys, and
though they yesterday invited all the subjects of their
respective nations to declare their names, residences, and
professions, it,is believed that no great baste will be made
in drawing up these lists, and that they will act with the
greatest prudence on this occasion.—Augsburg Goatee.
FROM THE CONSTITOTIONNEL ON WEDNESDAY.
We remark, that in announcing the disposition of
the Portuguese Chamber of Deputies, the Mositeter
does not say one word of the convocation of a new
Chamber. We must believe, however, that the Cham-
ber is about to be renewed; there is no occasion to ex-
plain under what influence the elections will be made.
The men who have shown themselves faithful to the
Charter of Don Pedro find themst hes deceived,exposed
to outrage, to persecution, and many of them are obliged
to expatriate themselves. Those, on the contrary,
who conspired against the new institutions, who have
taken arms against those institutions, are recalled, ho.
noured, and are about to enter the Councils of the
Government. The reoiction will then be complete, and
in its turn Portugal is about to experience the benefits
of an " undiscoverable" Charter. The care of execut-
ing, consolidating the Charter, will be confided to the
most ardent enemies of that fundamental pact. By
means of interpretation, the Char ter is about to become
the most perfidious and tloody weapon.
It is difficult to conceive that in such a situation of
affairs the English Government should have withdrawn
its troops, and that it should thus abandon its most
faithful ally to all the fury of faction. This is a new and
terrible lesson to those who believe in the good faith,
honesty, and fidelity of certain Cabinets.
Other news from Lisbon, also of the 14th, state that
the decree of dissoltition was published the same day,
without spekking of the convocation of another Cham-
ber. They add, that the Diplomatic Body appeared to
fear that the dissolution of the elective Chamber was the
prelude of the proclamation of Don Miguel as King of
Portugal, and that the Ambassadors of Austria and
England had boldly declared, that if this proclamation
were made they would instantly quit Lisbon.
The Quotidienne, in spite of the news of the official
journal, persists in maintaining that if the Prince Regent
has not been proclaimed King at Lisbon, he was so a
the provinces, and even at the gates of the capital. It
might happen, that in affairs of this nature the coa-
-1
gregation was better informed than the Ministry.
A report has been spread !hat the Ambassadors of
England and Brazil had left Lisbon. We repeat the
report, without pledging ourselves to it.
FROM THE COtIBIEK FRANCAIS OF WILDNIt3DAT.
PARIS, Maims 1.,6.
It is difficult to explain how the resolution of go-
veraing constitutionally should have led to the dissolu-
tion of the Chamber of Deputies ; would General
' Elections, amid fermentations, be a good means of
seeming the public peace? We find mole proba-
bility in the version of another Journal, which states,
that according to a Decree published on the morning
of the 14th, the Chambers were dissolved, which
is just equal to an abolition of the Constitutional
regime. Count Villa Real has been deprived of the
functions of Minister of Foreign Affairs. The Quoti-
dieme says, that Don Miguel has n .t been proclaimed
King at Lisbon, but that he has been proclaimed in the
' Provinces, and even in the precincts of Oporto. That
does not agree very well with the hopes sidle Monitors
and even the facts it relates.

CORN LAWS.

The Doke of WELLINGTON said, that having

given notice of his intention to lay before the House
this day a statement of the plan devised by his MA.
jesty's Government for the future regulation of the Corn
Trade, he deeply regretted that any necessity should
have, arisen to postpone a disclosure of so much im-
portance. Bat as the statement could not be laid before
the other House of Parliament, in consequence of the
indisposition of the Right lion. Gentleman whose duty
it was to bring it for ward, and as it was obviously ex-
pedient that it should be made simultaneously to both
Houses of Parliament, he would beg leave to postpone
his statement until Monday.
SAWS LAWS.

Bail DARNLEY hoped that, In consequence of the intimation
just given, ►is Noble Friend, who had unmixed his intention to
propose certain additional clauses to the Sale of Game Bill, on
Monday. would consent to postpone his motions.
Lord WHARNCL/FFE replied, that be should merely submit
Ma propositions, in doing which he should occupy very tittle of
their Lordships' time.
The Marquis of SALISBURY was willing to consult the con-
venience of the House, and be thought the discussion likely to arise
upon the propositions of the Noble Baron might probably occupy
a considerable patios of time.
Lord GODERICH thought the course suggested by the Noble
Baron the most coovesisst. The Bill might be committed pre
farm, the propositions of the Noble Baron received, and then a
future day be appointed fee a recommitment of the Bill, when the
discussion might conveniently take place. The House would then
possess full knowledge, both of the Bill of the Noble Marquis, and
of the propositions of his Noble Friend.
The Marquis of SALISBURY said, that in the measure be bad
brought fotward, be had in view the single object of legalising the
sale of game, as a means of diminishing the crime of poaching. To
the principle of this measure the House bad already expressed its
assent. and be must repeat his unwillingness to clog it with any
addidons which might endanger its success.
Lord It EDESDA LE objected to the course proposed, as calcu-
lated to diminish the opportunities of debate. This was a bad
precedent. He considered the measure of the Noble Matteis, and
the propositioos of the Noble Baron as distinct, and he entertained
some apprehension that the latter might lead to a considerable
increase of litigation.
Lord TEYN HA M recommended a separate Bill. The course
proposed involved the danger of losing the original Bill by a side
wind.
Lord WHARN C LI FFE was entirety in their Loadships' hands
as to the course he should pursue, but be must say, that the clauses
he intended to propose were not only connected with the Bill, but
necessary to give it effect. If it were thought convenient he would
enter into the explanation of his propositions now. Here the con-
'mass dropped.

STATZ OP IRRLAND.
Earl DARNLEY bad given notice of his intention to
propose a measure to ameliorate the condition of Le-
land. He bad been disappointed to 6od that no pro.
poaition of this nature was likely to emanate from his
Majesty's Government. He bad even heard that some.
thing was in contemplation, not of a conciliatory. but
of a penal description. He hoped this information was
incorrect. The Noble Marquis now at the head of the
Irish Government was actuated, he believed, by a sincere
desire to promote the tranquillity and welfare of the
country. The inanifertation of this feeling was likely
to do more good than any penal enactments. He had
entertained a hope that the recommendations of the
Emigration Committee would base tended to improve
the state of the Irish population, it they had been car-
ried into of ct ; but it nothing was proposed by Go-
vernment, he should feel it his imperative duty t•. call
the attentirn 01 the House to the subject. He therefore
gave notice that on Friday, the 25th of April, he
should move the appointment of a Select Committee to
inquire into the State of the population of Ireland,
with a view to suggest any practicable means of im-
proving it.
The bail of LIMERICK said, that the Noble Earl
had had the kindness to communicate with him upon
the subject, and he bad confessed his apprehension that
no measure likely to produce important advantages
would result from the appointment of such a Commit.
tee. He had also frankly stated, and must now re•
peat his objection to open a grievance shop, such as
this Colllll.ittet must unavoidably become.
Lord RRDESDALE said, that the subject to be in-
troduced on Monday was of the highest importance to
the population of Ireland. This country was the great
market for the agricultural productions of Ireland. The
welfare of Ireland would be best promoted by preserv-
ing to it this market unimpaired, and by enforcing the
dominion of the lam.

Earl DARNLEY, although not sanguine in his es
peetationi et great advantages, hoped to be able to
show that much partial good might be effected. He
hoped to sr nvisce even the Noble Lord. that the state
al the population was such as to call for the interpc:si-
lion of l'arlian.ent. The population of that country
was now pressing heavily, and, unless some remedy
vrese applied, must press with increasing weight upon
this.

Intent to the third cruse or the Bib. which mums the
puoiehnteat to be issfi.cted upon pawns convicted of

petty treason, that hanging In chains be substituted for
delivery to the surgeons for dibsection. The opinion
generally prevailed that the mode of poniahnsent he now
moved to supersede in this particUlar case operateJ to
increase the difficulty experienced by the Faculty in
procuring an adequate supply of subjects for dis,ection.
So strongly did this opinion prevail among medical
men, that, after much communication with the most
eminent of that body upon the subject, he knew they
would rather be s ithout the limited supply, which arose
from the sentence of criminals.

Lord ROSEBERRY, in reference to dissecting the
bodies of criminals, said that he had visited the Quiver•
sity of Edinburgh, as one of the Commissioners ap-
pointed for that purpose, and from all the information
he ct uld collect, be considered the practice of handing
over the bodies of those who had been guilty of in-
famous crimes, to be dissected, was extremely injurious.
So long as this practice was continued, the infamy con-
nected with it must prevent others from permitting the
bodies of their friends to fall into the hands of the sur-
geons, and the supply which it produced was not nearly
adequate. He thought this subject was well worthy
the attention of the House. He held in his hand a letter
from a *my distinguished Gentleman in his profession,
Dr. M'Cattney, of Dublin, in 'which he stated, that if
the bodies of all criminals were given up for dissection,
they would not be sufficient. His Lordship moved an
'amendment to this clause.
Lord TENTERDEN said it was not his intention to
oppose the amendment, but he wished the House fur-
ther to consider its propriety. Frequent applications
were at present made by surgeons for the bodies of
those who were executed for murder, and the amend-
ment might tend to lessen the supply of subjects to the
profession, by giving discretionary power to Judges.—
He considered that the feeling of respect for the remains
of friends ought not to be discountenanced. The amend-
ment was agreed to.
On the clause relative to a woman concealing the birth of a dead
illegitimate child,
Lord 1 ENDERDEN expressed a wish that the pro-
vision should be extended to a married woman who
concealed the birth of a dead illegitimate child. He
also wished it to be left to the discretion of the Judge,
whether persons so accused should be tried on an in-
dictment for murder, or only for the misdemeanour ?
The Amendment was agreed to. Several other Amendments
having been proposed and agreed to, their Lordships resumed, and
the Bill as amended was reported by the Earl of Sou rressuat, and
ordered to be re-printed.
