DUBLIN CATTLE MARKET. JUNE 14.

The Cattle and Sheep market to-day was about the usual
number, but something firmer in prices, especially mutton,
than this day week. Beef in sink, 40s. to 455. ; prime, 465. to
505.; Mutton, 43d. to 5i(1.; Lambs, 14s. to 225. each. The Pig
market was virtually devoid of interest, the advanced season
and warm state of the weather preventing either a fair attend-
ance or even the usual number of jobbers.

Our commercial prospects, notwithstanding the conti-
nued interruptions to the interchange of commodities
with many of the Continental states, are very cheering;

and it was currently reported on 'Change this afternoori
that the Danish blockade was suspended. We fear this
is too good to be true ; but, with our best wishes at the
back of it, we give it to our readers as we received it.
The past week has been a busy one; the sales of Cotton
are again large; the prices of iron are firmer; and gene-
rally speaking a healthy feeling is observable throughout,
added to which the intelligence received to-day by the
Caledonia is favourable

Co.ffee continues to be inquired after, and

stiffer prices asked. There is also a better feeling for Tea ;
the late low prices have attracted attention, and some
sales were effected on Saturday on speculation.

The increase in the amount of bullion in this country
has given rise to much speculation. Being at the present
time so abundant that bankers will not give more than
2to 2 per cent., the general impression seems to be that
it must before long be invested to a considerable extent
in produce, and that in all probability much higher
prices may presently result. Hitherto we have not
received much gold direct from California; our imports of

Sir J. NicHoLs resumed the debate on Canada. He
was followed by the Attorney-General, Mr. H. Drum-

Mr. Anstey, and the Marquis of Granby supported the
amendment.

numbers were—For Mr. Herries' amendment 150, against

FRANCE.

The debate in the French Assembly on the Italian
question closed on Tuesday. M. Ledru Rollin having
addressed the Assembly a second time, and concluded by
declaring that the constitution had been violated, and
that he and his friends were preparecl4to defend it even
with arms in their hands. A scene of great confusion
followed. The President declared that the words of M.
Ledru Rollin were a scandalous breach of order. General
Bedeau said that the majority was sovereign, and that he
could only obey the majority ; and M. Thiers exclaimed,
that as the cry Aux armes !" had been uttered, it was
beneath the dignity of the Assembly to continue the dis-
cussion. Ultimately the Assembly divided on the order
of the day, pure et simple, when the numbers were—for
the Motion, 361 • against it, 203. Majority for Minis-
ters, 158. The iaris democratic journals next day printed
the passage from Rollin's speech, declaratory of an appeal
to arms, in prominent characters. Placards were issued
from the various clubs, and from several legions of the
National Guards, expressive of a determination to stand
by the constitution, which they declared had been viola-
ted by the intervention at Rome. Many other circum-
stances showed that a collision was at band, and every
preparation was made by Government to meet it.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 16.

Without any degree of animation, the trade during the week
has been steady; stocks of all articles have been got into ma-
nageable compass, foreign supplies fall off, and arrivals of
Flour from the Eastern Counties and the interior are small.
At both Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday an improved feeling
was observable; more particularly in Wheat and Flour. The
same may be remarked of our market to-day : choice samples
of each of these articles are firmly held for a small advance,
which is obtained where sales are made, not, however, so deci-
dedly as to warrant alteration in our quotations. Secondary
qualities neglected. Oats end Oatmeal scarcely maintain pre-
vious rates. All other articles steady at former prices.

BELFAST CORN MARKET, JUNE 15.

We have little change to note this week in the Corn trade ;
prices are without much alteration, and the demand is confined
to merely purchasing for immediate wants, which checks busi-
ness. Wheat and Flour dull, and a slow sale, at about former
rates. Oatmeal in good demand, at full prices. In Indian
Corn there has been only a moderate demand, during the week.
Yellow a slow sale, at about last week's prices ; white, owing
to the small quantity offering in the market, sells at an advance
of 2s. Cd. to ss. per ton hit* very prime quality. There were
three parcels offered by auction to-day, but only a few lots of
yellow were sold at .EBl2s. fid.; and buyers, not being disposed
to exceed .e 8 10s., the parcels were withdrawn.

the foot of certain little oblong pieces of paper of periodi-

who deserved punishment escaped, but it would be saying
too much to aver that the criminals of note enjoyed the
like privileges; on the contrary, the Dogherrys of the old
regime possessed more tact and ability in scenting out
offenders of this class than the majority of the experienced
men under the present system can lay claim to. When
ratepayers reflect that their money goes in maintaining a
body of men whose alacrity is marked in arresting and

opinion that a little retrenchment would be salutary, and
that too in more ways than one,—both as regards their

LONDON SHARE MARKET.-YESTERDAY.

A much more confident feeling prevails in the share market
this morning, and prices generally, especially'as regards the
older lines, have considerably improved. In the course of the
morning the following were dealt in at higher rates : London
and Brighton at 364 and 37 ; London and North Western at
129 and 128. Midland at 69. and 70 ; South Eastern at 20i and
; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 21; York and North Mid-
land at 32f, and k.

Yesterday being the anniversary of the Battle of Wa-
terloo, flags were displayed from the public buildings and
churches in the town, from most of the vessels in the
docks, and from many private establishments.
NATIONAL Pooß RATE.—The Confederation have
published a petition to parliament, which will be for sig-
nature at the usual places to-day and to-morrow, praying
for the establishment of a National Poor Rate. No doubt
numbers of ratepayers will sign the petition, as it is evi-
dent that something must be done to relieve the town
from its present unsupportable burdens of taxation.
SUDDEN DEATH.—On Saturday, Thomas Cooper, aged
60, who resided with a married sister at a public-house in
Horatio-street, and had for a long time complained of a
pain in his left side, called for a glass of gin and
water, but before he had tasted it, he put his hand to his
left side, and saying he could not bear the pain, suddenly
fell down. He was raised, and a surgeon was sent for,
but deceased died in about half an hour, of disease of
the heart.
EXAMINATION OF MASTERS AND MATES.—At meet-
ing of the Board of Examiners, on Tuesday, the 12th inst.,
Mr. James Mackay, Ist officer of the Sea, was found qua-
lified for a second class master's certificate, and on Friday,
the 15th instant, Captain 'William Henry Causzar, master
of the Una, of Liverpool, Captain John Black, master of
the Free Trader, of Newcastle, and Captain Henry Law-
son, master of the Thomas Feilden, of Liverpool, were
found duly qualified for first class masters' certificates,
and Mr. William Walker, late Ist officer of the Jane, of
Liverpool, for a second class master's certificate.

to rod., which is from 4d. to Gd. per gallon less than the
price of milk conveyed in spring carts or produced in the
towns. The vibratory motion to which the milk is sub-
jected when sent by railway, causes it to yield less cream
than milk of the same quality that has not been thus agi-
tated. It is half churned, and in summer speedily be-
comes sour.

Many of the milk farmers expend upwards of £lO per
cow in the purchase of provender. The cows are well fed
and well attended, and, on account of the nutritious food,
the manure produced is rich in fertalizing ingredients, and
the land is kept in good condition, and in many places is
increasing in fertility. The farmers, though not realizing
large incomes, are making a steady profit, and appear in

LORD NEWBOROUGa'S YACHT " VESTA."-This
splendid new iron yacht arrived in our river on Tuesday
last, and her appearance during the whole week, while

of carrying an immense spread of sail, is provided with a
screw propeller, turned by a pair of engines of 25 horse-
power each, with oscillating cylinders, working on the

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET.-YESTERDAY,

The number of Beasts being rather smaller than on Monday
last, there is a considerable effort on the part of salesmen to
advance prices, but it has only succeeded in few instances. In
consequence the trade is slow, but late rates are freely offered,
and more cannot be quoted as a fair average. We are well
supplied with Sheep and Lambs ; our demand is very limited,
and a reduction of about 2d. per Sibs. is submitted to. Calves
are still plentiful, and the dead markets being over-stocked, it
is very difficult to maintain late quotations, for the choicest
and middling kinds are lower. From Germany and Holland
there are 290 Beasts, 2,160 Sheep, and 136 Calves ; Norfolk and
Suffolk, 1,600 Beasts ; and Scotland, 200.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 15.

The extensive demand noticed last week continued in the
early part of the present, and the current qualities of American
commanded rather higher prices; the inquiry, however, during
the last few days has been more moderate, and the quantity
offering somewhat greater, but the market has closed steady at
the quotations of Friday last. Brazil, Sea Island, and Surat
have been in good request, at full prices. Taken on specula-
tion' 12,800 American, 500 Pernam, and 500 Surat ; and for ex-
port, 2100 American, 400 Pernam, and 60 Egyptian.

THE PAPAL STATES.

The success of the French at Rome has been greatly ex-
aggerated. They got possession of the Monte Pincio ; but,
on the other hand, they suffered reverses at the Villa
Pamphili which counterbalances this advantage.
Letters from Civita Vecchia of the 7th instant, an-
nounce the arrival there of the Spanish steamer Lepanto,
having on board General Cordova and another officer, who
immediately left for the French camp. The Spanish troops
it appears, were to occupy the southern portion of the
province of Velletri. The French began to bombard the
Transtevere on the sth, and the Triumvirs had placed the
palaces of Borghesi, Rospigliosi, and Pamphili at the dis-
posal of the inhabitants who had abandoned that quarter.
The Risorgimento of Turin, of the 11th instant, men-
tions having received the following communication from
an authentic source :

" The accounts from Rome are not later than the 6th.
The French have preserved all their positions, and opened
a breach at the gate of St. Pancrazio. General Oudinot
summoned the city to surrender on the 6th, before com-
mencing the assault. In case of refusal he was to make
a general attack that night. Only 350 French, wounded,
at arrived at Civita Vecchia, and their loss in killed and
wounded does not exceed 500 men.
THE ROMANS AND THE POPE.—It has been confi-
dently stated that the Roman people were devotedly
attached to Pio Nono, and that the late insurrection was
caused by a number of refugee desperadoes who had mis-
led the people. Only let the Romans have an oppor-
tunity, and it was said that thousands would avail them-
selves of it to declare openly in his favour. Well, what
is the sequel ? During three weeks after the landing of
the French the gates of Rome were unclosed, and the
provinces have been free of the armed bands attached to
Mazzini and the anti-papal party. Still not a single man
has joined the French camp, and not one Roman, either
in the city or the country, has taken up arms for the Pope.
The reaction is neither seen nor heard. A church govern-
ment cannot possibly be restored at Rome.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Through an unfortunate mistake in our Police Intelligence the
name of a respectable person, "John Mack," was mentioned
as having been concerned in obtaining cigars under false
pretences. It should have been " John Mark."
A pamph!et "Our Colonies," and " A Letter on the Assump-
tion of Railways by Government," Ly Mr. A. W. Hart, in
our next.
Mr. Beesley on "The Agriculture of Lancashire" also in our
next. Mr B. will see that we have made some extracts from
his able pamphlet in oar present publication.
The letter of "G" is well worthy of attention. The highest
authority in the Church would, we have no doul,t, appoint a
National Fast, if the subject were fairly stated, and con-
gregational or general petitions with that view are very
desirable.
The letter of "Ratio Justifica Suasoria " was in type last week,
and was only withdrawn for want of room at the last moment,
when there was not time to allude to the subject, even in a
notice to correspondents.
The evils of municipal reform are well pointed out by " Le-

But, alas ! a few sentences further on, we find
the Right Rev. Bishop dealing in the very jargon
of that school, whose selfishness in the " unhappy
year 1846" neutralised all the efforts of humanity
during the last half century ; neutralised the one
great object of his revered parent's exertions dur-
ing a long lifetime, and brought down upon the
wretched negro a persecution and a cruelty more
atrocious than that parent ever was doomed to
contemplate and deplore. The political economist is
strong in the Right Rev. Bishop—stronger, we fear,
than the "hereditarily transmitted" humanity; and
the .attempted combination of the two characters
leads to sad contradictions of fact and theory, The
political economist would sacrifice British industry,
British shipping, British agriculture and manufac-
turers, to " quicken trade, to make Brazil a better
customer, by increasing her imports, and, of course,
her exports ;" hut he would stop short at the very
article which constitutes her main export. No, no,
my Lord. Such a movement is not to be effected.
It is inconsistent and impracticable. You have
chosen your company and your policy. You sup-
ported this bill through all its stages. You might
easily have seen its tendency, and ought to have
known your politico-economical allies—known that
they are men who stand at no scruples; who
possess no large stock of philanthropy; whose god
is of the world ; who worship cheapness—money—
whether it is wrung from the blood and sinews of
the despoiled industry of their own fellow-country-
men, or bought with stripes laid upon the back of
the slave. The political economy of the present day
has no affections; no ties of country or kindred.
It is cosmopolitan. Its heart is a stone. And what
wonder that you appealed to it,—that you invoked
the shade of your revered father from his grave to
aid you—in vain ?

The supply of English Wheat was again short, and was readily

Monday's quotations. The better sorts of foreign must be
quoted is. dearer, and there was an increased amount of busi-
ness transacted in other descriptions, at the extreme quota
tions of this day se'nnight. No alteration in the value of
Flour. Barley was in fair request at previous prices. Oats
were in good supply from abroad, and there was an improved
sale at Friday's quotations which were a shade lower than on
this day week. Beans and Peas in moderate request, and their
value underwent no change.
