LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST• 6

There has been a good demand for Cotton today;• the sales are
7000 bags, including 1500 on speculation, and 500 for export : the
market firm.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, AUGUST 6

There is an extraordinary degree of apathy existing in the dry
Butter trade, and prices may be considered entirely nominal.
The finest descriptions we cannot note higher than Os to 945.
Pickled Butter being but in limited supply, and much anxiety
evinced on the part of purchasers to ship in certain fast sailing
vessels on the eve of departure for the Brazils,—the rates are en-
hanced fully 2s per cwt. • respectable brands commanding pis to
925. Beef continues to rule extravagantly high. Pork is moderate
in comparison, and by many, is expected to advance. Bacon goes
off with much freedom at 52s to 53s for the finest quality.

This Is another odd number of a serial work. The appear-
ance on the title page of. tile name of Thomas Miller, author
of " Royston Gower," &c., is, however, a sufficient
guarantee for the intrinsic merits of the work. It appears
to be a tale of rustic life, the incidents of which, if we may
judge from an isolated number, are of a stirring character.
The illustrations are equal to any in the most popular of the

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY

•
Mr. Pzm BERTON presented petitions from the profession,
complaining of the abandonment of the administration of
justice (chancery) bill.
Lord J. RUSSELL, after the pro forma examination, by
committee, of the lords' journals, to ascertain the fate of the
rating of stock in trade bill, brought in a new bill on that
subject.
The adjourned consideration of the third reading of the
ecclesiastical court (or Thorogood's release) bill was resumed
and the bill finally read the third time and passed.
On the motion of Mr. PAKIN GTON, the lords' amendments
to the sale of beer bill were agreed to, with amendments, and
the lords' concurrence therein ordered to be requested.
On the motion of Lord J. Russum., the lord's amend-
ments to the admiralty court (judge's salary) bill were
agreed to.
Mr. AGLIONBY (on the order of the day for going into
committee of ways and means) moved that there be pre-
sented to her Majesty an address, to direct that a commission
may be issued to inquire into the allegations contained in the
petition of Mr. Feargus O'Connor, presented to this house
on the Ist day of June last, and into what has been and now
is his treatment in York Castle : also, to inquire into what
has been and now is the treatment of prisoners confined un-
der sentences for writing and publishing seditious libels, or
for uttering seditious words, or for attending seditious meet-
ings, in gaols or houses of correction of York, Wakefield,
Northallerton, and Beverley.

Lord J. RUSSELL opposed this motion.
The debate was adjourned till Friday.
The lords' amendments to the county constabulary bill,
with some verbal alterations, were agreed to ; after which
the lords' amendments to the chimneysweepers bill were
read and agreed to.

The AT.i.ORNEY-GENERAL moved the further considera-
tion of the report on the Court of Chancery (Lord Brougham's)
bill.

The bill was very fully discussed ; it eventually went
through committee, and the report was ordered to be re-
ceived on Thursday.

The remaining business having been disposed of, the house
adjourned.

Vessels arriving with timber could discharge and load in

saving of expense both to.the ship and the importer; to the
former, in labour alone.full £lO on a cargo of 500 tons, and
to the latter at least £3O in labour and lighterage. The iron
and coal merchsnts have .not . yet removed . their wharfs
(though I learn they are. about . doing so), therefore, the ves-
sels that have hitherto loaded in. the Bute canal have borne
the expense of lightering their iron from the Glamorgan
canal at a cost of 9d. perton, and have also paid the wharfage
charge on iron—namely. .6d. per, ton .on. vessels under 100
tons register, under 250 tons 9d., 250 tons and upwards ls.
per ton. The necessity for the former expense will be abo-
lished when the wharfs are removed; and the latter will be,
for arrangement, between, the ship and shippers either to be
refunded the vessel, or be paid a proportionate addition in
freight. By reference to the above comparative statement,
it is quite evident that with the addition of both these items
to the Bute dock tariff on either class of charges, an immense
saving would still be effected by ships loading in the Bute
canal.

was ordered to be further considered on Thursday.
Their lordships shortly afterwards adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY.
Mr. l'EmpEzToN presented petitions from the profession,
complaining or the abandonment of the administration of
justice (chancery) bill.
Lord J. R•.rssEr.L, after the pro forma examination, by
committee, of the lords' journals, to ascertain the fate of the
rating of stock in trade bill, brought in a new bill on that
subject.
The adjourned consideration of the third reading of the
ecclesiastical court (or Thorogood's release) bill was resumed,
and the bill finally read the third time and passed.
On the motion of Mr. PAKINGTON, the lords' amendments
to the sale of beer bill were agreed to, with amendments, and
the lords' concurrence therein ordered to be requested.
On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, the lord's amend-
ments to the admiralty court (judge's salary) bill were
agreed to.
Mr. AGLIONSY (on the order of the day for going into
committee of ways and means) moved that there be pre-
sented to her Majesty an address, to direct that a commission
may be issued to inquire into the allegations contained in the
petition of Mr. Feargus O'Connor, presented to this house
on the Ist day of June last, and into what has been and now
is his treatment in York Castle : also, to inquire into what
has been and now is the treatment of prisoners confined un-
der sentences for writing and publishing seditious libels, or
for uttering seditious words, or for attending seditious meet-
ings, in gaols or houses of correction of York, Wakefield,
Northallerton, and Beverley.

Lord J. RUSSELL opposed this motion.
The debate was adjourned till Friday.
The lords' amendments to the county constabulary bill,
with some verbal alterations, were agreed to ; after which
the lords' amendments to the chimneysweepers bill were
read and agreed to.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved the further considera-
tion of the report on the Court of Chancery (Lord Brougham's)
bill.

The bill was very fully discussed ; it eventually went
through committee, and the report was ordered to be re-
ceived on Thursday.

The remaining business having been disposed of, the house
adjourned.

narrow that pilots cannot always avoid running on the banks,
which, occurring at high tides, vessels sometimes get be-
neaped high and dry for seven or eight days. On arrival at
the gates vessels have to wait for tide or for their turn to be
locked in, grounding evory tide, jammed up betwixt a multi-
tude of vessels in a very confined spot, there is no security,
and always apprehension ; for it has occurred that vessels
have taken the bank in grounding, and fallen over on beam-
ends, straining the ship and damaging cargo, and occasion-
ally, it has been necessary to dischare all, and rePair. These
accidents have caused.vessels sharply built, or coppered ves-
sels not liking to take the ground, to remain in Penarth
roads, to load, as is necessary with vessels of large burthen,.
and this at an expense of 2s. 6d. per ton for lighterage on
ballast and cargo. This will now be avoided, as the largest
class ships can load in the Bute Docks with as much conve-
nience and facility as at any port in the kingdom, • and at a
considerable saving of time and expense. Having shown the
facilities afforded to ships by the new harbour, I proceed to
show, by a comparative statement, the cost of receiving car-
goes from thence and from Glamorgan Canal, exemp

it in the several classes of vessels on which different
are chargeable at the former.

THE QUEEN DOWAGER

ASHBURN, FRIDAY.--The queen dowager, and the Duchess
of Saxe Weimar, attended by Earl Howe, Earl of Denbigh,
and Countess of Sheffield, arrived at one o'clock at the
Hanging Bridge, about a mile from this town, where the Rev.
Mr. Shipley, the Rev. Mr. Moss, and the local clergy in
their canonicals, the parochial authorities, and upwards of
300 of the influential inhabitants of the town, were in waiting
to conduct her majesty through the town. The crowd was
very great. Her majesty was apparently much affected by
the bursts of enthusiastic welcome. After changing horses,
the royal party proceeded on their route to Matlock.
MATLOCK, SATURDAY.—Yesterday afternoon, the queen
dowager and the Duchess of-Saxe Weimar, attended by Earl
Howe, lord chamberlain; Earl of Denbigh, master of the
horse ; and Countess of Sheffield, lady of the bedchamber ;
and Earl of Sheffield, Ladies Georgiana Curson and Mary
Fielding, arrived at Cromford, where a large concourse of
persons had collected long before her majesty's arrival. On
the royal cortege coming in sight, the buzzes of the multi-
tude expressed their joy at the honour of the royal visit. Mr.
Hurt, M.P., Mr. Arkwright, M.P., and a numerous party
of the gentry and clergy of the neighbourhood, received her
majesty on the Derby road to Matlock. The preparations
were on an unusual degree of splendour. Shortly after the
queen dowager's arrival, her majesty, accompanied by the
Duchess of Saxe Weimar and suite, went down the river,
and along the Lovers' Walk, round the rocks, and ascended
the heights of Abraham, and descended the Masson, and sub-
sequently visited the temple and castle, and also the Royal
Museum. During her majesty's walk, a piece of ground was
pointed out as the site of an intended new church ; and, on
returning to the hotel, her majesty wrote her name down with
a donation of £25 towards the building. This morning, the
queen dowager took her departure precisely at nine o'clock
tor Derby. Her majesty went from Derby to Sudbury, and
thence to Gopsall-hall, the seat of Earl Howe, where her
majesty and her serene highness the Duchess of Saxe Weimar
intend staying several days, when the youthful family of the
Duchess of Saxe Weimar will join the circle. On the 10th,
her majesty goes on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of
Buckingham, at Stowe ; and on the 13th, her majesty's birth-
day, she intends being at Bushy.

Deal gently with the widow's child.

The young bird from the nest away

ierecarefess 'neath a venial sun,

caroll'd day by day

The haunt is lone—the heart must grieve-,
From whence her timid wing doth soar,
Then pensive list at hush of eve,
Yet hear her gushing song no more !

Deal gently with her—thou art dear,
Beyond what vestal lips have told ;
And like a lamb, from fountains clear,
She turns, confiding to thy fold.
She, round thy sweet domestic bower,
The wreaths of changeless love shall twine,
Watch for thy step at vesper hour,
And blend her holiest prayer with thine !

Deal gently, thou, when far away,
'Mid stranger scenes her foot shall rove,
Nor let thy tender cares decay—
The soul of woman lives in love ;
And should'st thou, wandering, mark a tear
Unconscious from her eye-lid break,
Be pitiful, and soothe the fear
That man's strong heart can ne'er partake!

This is another odd number of a serial work. The appear-
ance on the title page of the name of Thomas Miller, author
of " Royston Gower," &c., is, however, a sufficient
guarantee for the intrinsic merits of the work. It appears

to be a tale of rustic life, the incidents of which, if we may
judge from an isolated number, are of a stirring character.
The illustrations are equal to any in the most popular of the
serial publications of the day.

ENGLISH SLAVERY,
(Front the Morning Herald.)

Lord Ashley moved, last night, that "an humble
address be presented to her Majesty, to direct an in-
quiry to be made into the employment of the children
of the poorer classes in the various branches of trade
and manufacture in which numbers of children work
together, not being included in the provisions of the
acts for regulating the employment of children and
young persons engaged in factories, and to collect in-
formation as to the ages at which they are employed,
the number of hours they are engaged in work, the
time allowed each day for meals, and as to the actual
state, condition, and treatment of such children, and
as to the effects of such employment, both with regard
to their morals and their bodily health."

,
The speech of Lord Ashley was admirable. It
abounded in statements of fact, of the highest impor-
tance ; and it was pervaded by a spirit of the most pro-
found wisdom.

The treatment to which the children employed in all
the great branches of our manufactures are subjected
is a national disgrace. Their ease, their health, their
comfort are utterly sacrificed; and all these fearful
evils are incurred, in order to carry on a system of
manufactures, which, the more it is extended, the
poorer does it render the country !

In the course of the discussimi Mr. Villiers and Mr.
Hume, while they admitted the evils alluded to by
Lord Ashley, took occasion to ascribe those evils to the
operation of the corn laws. It might puzzle those
gentlemen to account for the startling fact, that the
slavery of factory children, and of other children of
equally tender years, is far more severe in those coun-
tries where " bread is cheap" than even in England
with her much-abused corn-laws.

IMPORTANT NEWS FROM FRANCE,

(From a Third Edition of the-Times of yesterday.)

By an extraordinary express from Boulogne, we have re-
ceived the following hurried but very important intelligence,
dated Boulogne, Thursday morning :
"A steamer has just arrived off the town and landed about
100 men, dressed in the uniforms of generals and colonels of
the army. Some of them went immediately to the barracks,
crying Vive Louis Napoleon ! ' and distributed money
among the crowd.

" This morning, one of them, attired as a general officer,
and another as a colonel, were arrested and conducted to
prison. A number of horses are aboard the steamer. All is
quiet at present, but the military are all under arms.

" The drums are beating to call out the National Guards
No more of the insurgents have been arrested.
" It is said that Louis Napoleon also landed."

Vessels arriving with timber could discharge and load in
at least one-half the time hitherto required, and at a great
sasing of expense both to the ship and the importer; to the
former, in labour alone full £lO on a cargo of 500 tons, and
to the latter at least £3O in labour and lighterage. The iron
and coal merchants have not yet removed their wharfs
(though I learn they are about doing so), therefore, the ves-
sels that have hitherto loaded in the Bute canal have borne
the expense of lightering their iron from the Glamorgan
canal at a cost of 9d. per ton, and have also paid the wharfage
charge on iron--,-namely 6d. per ton on vessels under 100
tons register, under 250 tons 9d., 250 tons and upwards Is.

it is quite evident that with the addition of both these items
to the Bute dock tariff on either class of charges, an immense
saving would still be effected by ships loading in the Bute
