With the fair celestial band,
On Mount Sion thou shalt stand,
in the holy, heavenly land,
And a golden harp in hand ;
Mounted upon living wing
Thou shalt sweep its wakeful string,
And with saints and angels sing,
Till the mighty arches ring,

JESU, JEsu is our King.

might shortly sever us, I said to thee erewhile,
a shadow o'er thy brow, a sadness o'er thy smile-
lid'st shrink before that thought, my spirit cowl

n thy heart, was echoed back in mine !

could it not be thus, dear friend, we should not idly seek
tfulness—the refuge of the coward and the weak—
nell of earth's most treasured joys is pealing round us,

—deep and stern—we must not turn

aid the wise Egyptians placed at banquet board and feast
d tenant of the grace,--a grim and spectral guest !
d shrunken brow they twined a flowery

t ghastly shape is present still to our averted eye—
ye to forget that earthly love must die !
hless heavenly light may chase its awful

vainly strive

twine around it amaranth flowers that live beyond the

Very little demand 'in our Cotton Market to-day, yet we
think there is a firmer appearance in it : the sales are esti-
mated at 1000 bales, at yesterday's prices.

The gloomy accounts of the Manchester market, and the wide-
spreading rumours of working short time, continue to have their

MEXICO

Intelligence has been received from Mexico to the 24th of
February. The republic continues still in a very unsettled
state, which the President appears to have convinced himself
of, from having had several pieces of cannon planted on and
near the convent in which he resides, as a personal safe-
guard against the revolutionary movement, said by every one
to be at hand. The policy of the long-talked-of invasion of
the Texian shores by Mexico, is elucidated in one of our
letters thus :—" I am informed by a gentleman connected
with the seat of government, that Santa Anna's party have
been urging another attack on Texas, and recommended that
Bustamente should command the expedition. But the Pre-
sident has scented out their object, believed to be, that an

the capital."
The high road from Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico is in-
fested more than ever with robbers, so much so, that there is
no possibility of passing without being robbed, unless with a
very strong escort. The merchants complain of commerce
being nearly at a stand still; the smaller establishments can
barely clear their expenses; Tampico is full of soldiers, and
with only provisions enough to last four days, and no money ;
giving rise to fears (at the packet's sailing) that they may
become desperate and pillage the town. The .British con-
sul, Mr. Crawford. it is reported, will come to England per
next packet. From Havannah we find that the new gover-
nor, Valdez, had given great satisfaction. The Comus was
at Vera Cruz collecting government money for the West
Indies.

MONDAY

PARLIANIENTA RI 'VOTERS (IRELAND) DILL.
Cif• the motion of Lord MORPETII the house went into
ootnmittee on the parliamentary voters (Ireland) bill. Mr.

Bernal in the chair.
Lord How lex rose to move the following amendment,
after the words " no person " in line H, to omit all the
words to. the end of the clause, and to insert, " Claiming
under any act or acts now in force, to be entitled to be re-
gistered, and to vote as a parliamentary elector for any coun-
ty, in respect of any treehold or leasehold property in his
actual occupation, shall be deemed to have a beneficial inte-
rest herein, of the clear yearly value required by such act or
acts, except as hereinafter provided." The noble lord said,
he considered many and serious objections must be raised
against the clauses in the government bill. (Hear, bear.) He

wished the value of property to be ascertained by assessment,
and what it ought to be rated at for the poor. (Hear.) He
did not think the solvent tenant test could be safely followed,
and he intended to propose as an amendment that the party
claiming a right to vote should have " abeneficial interest of £5,
after deducting rent and other charges." The beneficial in-
terest of £lO contended for by Mr. O'Connell, after the de-
ductions which that member professed to allow, would not

STEALING FROM A CHILD.—On Monday a woman named
:ary O'Hara, was committed to take her trial at the ses-
ans, for having stolen a bundle of clothes from a child in
ime-street, about a fortnight ago. It appeared that the
iild, Hannah Dixon, was bringing the clothes from Brown-
w-hill to the house of her parents in Houghton-street,
hen the prisoner accosted her, and having engaged her at-
mtion, snatched the bundle from her and ran away with it.
'he prisoner was seen by several persons running with the
undle in her apron. The little girl having met the pri-
mer in St. John's-market, on Saturday, identified her and

enuneement was greeted with enthusistic cheers. Mr.
Crisp, in conclusion, detailed some striking facts as to the
liberality of the liberals with respect to some poor men occa-
tionally employed by the association in Clayton square.
Mr. THORNTON seconded the motion.

The CHAIRMAN put it, and it was carried unanimously.
Three hearty cheers were then given for Mr. Aspivall.
Mr. WOOLLEY, in a brief but sensible speech, assigned a
variety of forcible reasons for opposing the new poor law,
which had been referred to by some of the preceding speak.
ers, and moved the following resolution :
" That the chairman (D. Ledson, Esq.) be respectfully
requested to present the acknowledgements contained in the
preceding resolutions to Lord Sandon, Cresswell Cresswell,
and James Aspinall, Esqrs."
Mr. GEORGE JONES seconded the resolution. _

The CHAIRMAN, in putting the motion, said it was not
required to induce him to communicate the sentiments of
the meeting to the gentlemen therein named; nevertheless,
as it had been moved, he should have great pleasure in doing
so.—The resolution was then put and carried.
Mr. GLEAVE, in moving the next resolution, exposed the
character of Mr. Daniel O'Connell most completely, and we
only regret that the space to which we are limited prevents
us from inserting the expose. He moved that on, or the first
convenient day after, the 17th May, the Association dine to-
gether. (Loud cheers.)
Mr. RALEIGH seconded the motion.

The CHAIRMAN said he was authorised to state that Lord
Sandon intended to be present at the dinner, and he trusted
Mr. Cresswell would also be able to attend. He (the chair-
man) believed, however that the Amphitheatre was engaged
for the 17th, but he had the pleasure of adding, that any day
between the 17th and the 22d would suit Lord Sandou.
(Loud cheers.) •
The resolution was then carried.

Mr. PARKER said before the chairman proceeded to the
business of enrolling members, he was desirous of proposing
a vote of thanks to a much respected individual. If there
was an individual in the town to whom the operative conser-
vatives were more indebted than another, it was their chair-
man. (Loud cheers.) The Operative Conservative Associ-
ation, he believed, were a much more formidable and extensive
body than most people were aware of, for upon their books
there were the names of not less than from 1200 to 1400
voters. (Cheers.) For such a formidable array of weight
and interest they were much indebted to the active part their
excellent chairman had on all occasions taken.—(loud cbeers)
—and he therefore begged to move a vote of thanks to him.
(Renewed cheers.) Mr. Parker then proceeded to expose
the fallacies of the anti-corn law cry, which be did with much
perspicuity, and at considerable length.
Mr. CRISP seconded the motion, and it was carried amidst
tremendous applause from all parts of the meeting._

Mr. LzusOri returned thanks in a very neat and effective
address, which was greatly applauded. .

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, APaIL 28

Tile arrivals are tolerably good of both English and foreign grain.
There is no alteration to notice in the prices from Monday, the
trade being generally very dull.

HULL CORN

MARKET, APRIL 26

The same dullness and inactivity continues to hang over the
Corn trade : during the past week scarcely a business transaction
passing beyond the immediate wants of our neighbouring and
town millers. There arc several arrivals of Wheat from abroad,
chiefly from Hamburg, the bulk of which is landing under bond,
only paying the present duty where sales can be made from the
ship; these, however, have been only trifling. The quality is
generally good, weighing 5g to 60 lb., and some of the finer runs
til to 62 lb. per bushel. In I.inseed, but little passing, and prices
are looking down. Rapeseed as it arrives is generally landing, as
importers will not submit to present prices; the accounts from
Hamburg, (24th April), bring again higher rates, and further state
that stocks are nearly exhausted in that country. The demand for
cakes, both rape and linseed, is falling off, and 'late prices with
difficulty maintain on the few sales made. Bones support late
prices.

TURKEY AND THE EAST.

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 7.—You will probably have
heard so many divergent opinions as to the cause of the fall
of Reschid Pacha, that I will state what I happen to know
on the subject. On Sunday, the 28th of March, Reschid
Pacha brought forward and proposed for adoption by the
Porte a commercial code of laws, which had been very care-
fully prepared and perfected by M. Alfonse Royer, under the
auspices of Fethi Ahmed Pacha. Some of the ulemah (men
of the law) opposed the introduction of the new code. They
were decidedly of opinion that the Ottoman governmero
were already in possession of a general code of laws, which
was the best guide in all cases of justice—viz. the Sheri
Sheriff, or, in other words. the Koran. Reschid Pacha rose,
and with some warmth represented that the Sheri Sheriff was
very far from being perfect, and could not properly be made
applicable to the matters of commerce and material interests,
which required human laws. When the Sheri Sheriff was
compiled, there were no bills of exchange, no maritime in-
surance, no steam-boats ! This speech must have been
accompanied by some expressions very disrespectful in the
estimation of the ulemah, for several of them, as well as
others, who are proud of showing attachment to their reli-
gion, started up, declared they were perfectly shocked that
the minister for foreign affairs should venture to treat the
holy laws so irrevently, adding that they positively would not
participate in an act so reprehensible; whereupon Reschid
Pacha, who was supported by Ahmed Fethi Pacha, got into
a debate, which soon took the character of a complete dis-
pute, with the ulemah, who proclaimed their intention to
1 leave the council and never again set foot in it, if such im-
pious doctrines were permitted to be promulgated. Some of
the influential members who stand high witu the men of the
law (among others Rica Pacha), interfered, and with great
difficulty succeeded in pacifying the ulemah and other coun-
cillors, who had taken offence at the discourse of Reschid
Paella and Fetid Pacha. An end was put to the dispute
finally, the measure in contemplation being rejected and
abandoned.

—The................
whole affair was reported, as all others are, to the
Sultan, who immediately ordered a tirman to be drawn up,
dismissing from their offices the two offending paellas.
The news from Alexandria and Malta is not important.
