HOUSE OF LORDS.-THURSDAY.

The Loin CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack al
five o'clock.

A message from the Commons brought up the militia ballot
suspension bill, the Dublin police bill, the forms of pleading
bills, which were read a first time.
Several petitions were presented by the Earl of CARLISLE,
Lord BROUGHAM, &e.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY, the Earl Of ABINGDON, the
Earl of Cu ARLEVILLE, the Bishop of HEREFORD, and seve-
ral other peers, were deputed to' confer with the Commons
Sheriffs' Court (Scotland) bill.
The Marquis of LONDON DERRY felt it necessary again to
call the attention of the house to the state of the mAgistracy
of the county of Down. There were on the commission 190
magistrates, and allowing 25 to have died, not less than 50
had been erased from the commission. Out of 20 to whom
he ailuded on a former occasion, eight had been restored.
Why, he asked, had they been dismissed at all? Mr. Corry's
case he had already fully alluded to. He believed the charge
against him to have been totally unfounded, and must say
that he had been treated in a highly improper manner, and
that the. case reflected the greatest discredit on the noble and
learned lord opposite. Ile moved that all correspondence
between Mr. Corry and the Irish government be laid on the
•table. The next case to which he wished to call the attention
of the case, was that of the Rev. Holt Waring, who had
been dismissed from the commission merely because there
was an orange flag hoisted on the church. That could not be
construed into a breach of the peace. The next case was
that of the Rev. Mr. Sampson; and if ever there was a case
Which ought to have been excepted, it was that of the rev.
gentleman whose name he had just mentioned.
. The registration of electors bill was read a second time.
The recovery of tenements bill went through committee. The
insane persons (England) bills was read a second time. The
The loan societies (Ireland) bill, the fisheries (Ireland) bill,
and the public records bill went through committee.
Lord GLENELG laid upon .the table copies of the papers

The tulip is tinseled in bridal array,
The carnation is fair as a morning in May,
The snuw-drop, the violet, the li;y are braw,
But the rose in its bloom is the fairest o' a'.
Oh sweet are the wild flowers on glen and on fell
The deli has its daisy, the mountain its bell.
Fu' saftly they bud, and fu' sweetly they blaw ;
But the rose in its bloom is fairest o' a'.

Oh ken-ye the maid wi' the saft drimping e'e,
Whose voice is as sweet as the bud on the tree,
And the flush o' her cheek like the red blude on straw ?
She's the rose in its bloom—the fairest o' a'.
Oh had I that rose but to bloom in my bower,
Fu' gently I'd tend it in sunshine and shower;
Bleak winds shu'd na nip, nor the biting hail fa'
On that rose in its bloom, the fairest o' a'.

They canna mak happy the heart that is sair;
Gie walth to the needy, and state to the sma',
But that rose gie to me—the fairest o'

MY HEART'S WITH THE QUEEN.

Ny hope is with old England—my heart is with the Queen,
Whose name, like some enchantment, lends new gladness

to each scene.
Bend, peers of Britain, to the throne, and pay the homage

due,—
The soul of England's peasantry, unbending, glows as true.;
There's not a swain that tills the plain, nor nymph that trips
the green,
But says—" My hope's with England—my heart is with my
Queen !"

Come with thine ink of roses, the pen of angels' wing—
Come History, date Victoria's deeds, for ajtertime to sing;
The dove upon the lion's mane—the rose around the oak—
The lily, o'er whose ocean reign no storm as yet hath broke.
Rejoice ye gallant mariners—where'er the flag bath been,
Your hope was with old England—your hearts were with
your Queen!"

Yes, sing, thou little ligper—flower of thy mother's knee,
Victoria, though thou reck'st not why, seems melody to thee,
Turn, 'Cove, to music turn thy strings, the quiver cast aside.
Thy bow and useless arrows now go scatter wild and wide;
For here no rebel bosom beats but for one virgin mien,
And she's the hope of England—All hearts are with their
Queen. C. SWAIN-

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 4.

The imports of free Grain since this day se'nnight have been
extremely limited. The arrivals from foreign ports consist chiefly
of 4.100 quarters of Wheat and 1,100 quarters of Oats. The un-
favourable state of the weather for the growing crops, and reports
from various parts of the country that they have already sutl'ered
injury to a considerable extent, have this week caused great excite-
ment in our Grain market. The transactions in bonded Wheat
have been to a very large amount, and they include several pur-
chases made by the interior millers : 8s 4d to 8s 60 per 7016 s was
the range of prices on Tuesday last for fresh red, but as high as 9s
per 70Ibs has since been realized. There has, at the same time,
been a very active demand for most articles of the free trade, at
daily advancing prices, and Wheat is now Gd to 9d, Oats 3d to 4d
per bushel dearer. Flour fully 3s per sack and Oatmeal 3s to 4s
per load dearer than at the close of last week. The best English
white Wheat has brought its 9d, red Its 40, and fine Irish red
lOs 8d per 701bs. Oats have sold at 33 40 to 3s 8d per 451hs ; Flour
at 56s to 60s per sack ; Oatmeal at 29s to 31a Gd per load. The
market is still almost void of Barley : 5s 6d to 5s 10d per 601bs
would be paid for good parcels. Beans and Peas, with a slow sale,
are fully as dear. Bonded Flour, as well as Wheat. has attracted
the notice of speculators, and some quantity of Baltic sweet has
changed ha nds 30s to 35s per barrel.

STEAM COM.MUNICATION WITH INDIA.

Lord NV. BENTINCK presented several petitions from Cal-
cutta, Madras, and Ceylon, in favour of a direct communica-
tion by steam from the Red Sea to the several presidencies
of India and Ceylon. The noble lord then said that he would
avail himself of the present opportunity to ask his right hon.
friend the President of the Board of Control, what measures
had been taken by the .Court of Directors to extend steam
co►umunication to all the presidencies, and whether the East
India Company, had deemed it expedient to increase the
number of its armed steam-vessels in the Indian seas.

Sir J. C. HosHousE stated, in reply, that the recommen-
dation of the committee which had sat upon the subject of
steam navigation to India had been, that the experiment
should be made to Bombay, but not to the other two presi-
dencies. It was his opinion, however, that, whenever the
opportunity served, the experiment should be extended, not
only to Bombay, but also to Madras and Calcutta. Since he
bad last made a communication to the house on the subject,

he directors had built several very fine steam-vessels for

themselves, and had also purchased several others; and,
without promising too much, he thought that in a compara-
tively short time he should be able to state formally to the
hottse what they had done in that respect. The noble lord
had put into his hands returns, which showed what had been
done already for establishing steam communication with In-
dia. If his noble friend would move for those returns, or
would allow him to move for 'them, they should be laid on the
table fOrthwith.
The committee of ways and means was postponed till Fri-
day by the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
Lord H OW IC K moved that the militia ballotsuspension bill
be committed.

In answer to Mr. HIIIIE, who expressed a hope that before
the next session of parliament government would take those
aws into consideration, with a view to their immediate aboli-

tion,
Lord Ho WICK observed, that his noble friend the Secretary
of State was quite aware of the necessity which existed for
revising the militia laws. His noble friend would have un-
dertaken the task before now, had he not been prevented by
the pressure of other more important measures.
The bill was then committed. The report was ordered to
be received to-morrow. .

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought up the re-
ports of the committee on the transfer of funds (War-office)
bill, and on the joint stock banks bill. They were received,
and the bills ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER obtained leave to
bring in a billto continue for one year, and to amend the act
Ist of Victoria, c. 59, relative to the Bank of Ireland.
The bill was read a first, and ordered to be read a second
time on Thursday.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice, that on
Friday next he should move for leave to bring in a bill to re-
i,eal the 4! per cent. duties.
The house adjourned at half-past five o'clock.

CORN EXCHANGE, TUESDAY, AUGUST 7TH, 1838,

There is a small import of free Grain and Flour since this

Free Wheats have been sold at 10d to lld per 701bs ad-
vance, Flour 3s to 4s a sack, Oats 3d to 4d per 45Ibs, and
Oatmeal 4s to 6s per 2401b5.
This morning's Market was well attended from the coun-

ness done in free Grain and Flour was not extensive, the
millers and dealers purchasing for their immediate wants.
The week's imports of Butter are 8,489 firkins: the de-
mand continues good, at 945. to 955. per cwt. F. 0. B. for

A \YARNING TO ENGLAND.

"Let England remember the hour of her pide,
What the arms of her heroes made her,
What fields with the blood of her martyrs were dyed,
When the foes of her rights would invade her;
When she tore the sceptre from slavery's hand—
When her red cross was proudly streaming;
When she trampled in ashes the fiery brand
That in Rome's fierce grasp was gleaming.
When the world was in arms against her gates;
When against the world she thundered;
When her scale sustained earth's final fates;
When earth was saved and wondered;
When her people were fearless, and free and one,
And her church was a holy thing,
When her mighty throne was a Protestant throne,
And her King was the Protestant King.
Let England now think of the days to come,
When the sun of her glory shall set;
When her priests shall be sycophant slaves of Rome;
When her soil shall with blood be wet;
When Rome shall defile her holy walls;
When the proud idolater
With traitors shall sit in her council hall,
Then, England, thy death is near!"

Mr. LECHE'S HOUNDS will meet this-day, Friday, the 91h,at

The LUDLOW HOUNDS Will meet on Tuesday. the 13th a

day, the 17th, at Ornbury-bridge. At ten.

On the evening of Friday last, • between the hours or seven-
and eight o'clock, the house of a poor woman named re-
siding in Dale-place, Clifford-street, and in the employ of Mr.
Blundell, tobacco-manufacturer, was entered by thieves, and
property to the amount of between £3 and E 4 carried away.
This is the second time within two years that this poor, but very
honest and industrious woman, has been robbed of her little
all. • As yet, the police-have teceived no due to the offender.
RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—We regret to state that another ac-
cident happened on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway on
Saturday evening, ()Wing to the five o'clock train from Man-
chester-having come into collision with some coal or luggage
waggons, near Olive Mount. Happily no lives were lost, nor
were' any limbs broken, but several persons were severely
bruised. We have not heard who the blame in this case is
attributable to, but_there must have been some great carelessness;
and we are convinced that there Will be no end of such acci-
dents as these, and no safety for the public, until engineers and
conductors of trains are made amenable to some much More
severe punishment than dismissal for trifling. with the lives of
the public. We have laws against furious and negligent
driving, and why should persons conducting locomotives in a
rash and careless manner be allowed to escape? They place
the public in far greater danger from their carelessnesS than they
ever were from that of coachmen, and the public haVe a right
to deMand at least equal protection from the legislature. Had
the engineer whose infanmus neglect occasioned the accident
on the Barton Mess embankment the week before last, been
fined or sent to the tread.mill for a few months, the probability
is that the accident on Saturday night would not have occurred.
Sons AND DAUGHTERS OF THE LATE RING.—The Queen,
within these few days has written a letter to the Bailor Munster.
expressing her intention to continue to the children of her dear
and deeply regrettea uncle, the same allowance given to them
by him, viz., £l2oo perannuin to each of the sons, and £soUper
annum to each of the daughters;—Morning Chranicle.•

In answer to a question by Mr. MACLEAN,
Lord J. RUSSELL said the instructions which had been laid
on the table of the house, relating to the future government of
C 'nada, would not be forwarded with the bill to Sir J. Colborne,
a.: that gallant officer would not act under those instructions.
They were only to be acted upon by Earl Durham.
The house adjourned at five minutes past six o'clock.

SUPRRINTENDENTREGISTRATTON MA RRIAGES.—TWO parties
wishing to be married put up their names in the office of Mr.
Heywood (the registrar of this district) having specified St.
James's Chapel, in Whitehaven, as the place in which they
should be married. The minister of the chapel, moat honour-
ably feeling scruples as to the propriety of performing the cere-
mony with persons residing in a distant parish, wrote to the
registrar-general to know if a certificate front a superintendent-
registrar would bind a clergyman to marry those presenting it,
if both parties within the district, but out of the parish. The
registrar-general has set the matter at rest by stating that the
parties may be married at any church or chapel, being duly
registered, within the district, and that it is compulsory on the
Minister to perform the ceremony. This gives the opportunityieepty„,„flesigoing fellow to entrap niinary girls_ into inarriagvs

PADLIANIErITARY ELECTORS AND FREEMEN.

Lord J. liusstut..L tmoved that the house resolve itself into a
a committee on the parliamentary electors and freemen bill.
Mr. It HINDU said that before the-bill went into that stage
he had air:anueildruent to move, by way of instruction to the
committee. It was, that the bill should be separated, and
divided into two bills.. The hon. weather was understood t.
say that the noble lord (J. Russell.) had, in conneetitr, the two
distinct subjects of the ten-pOund ratepaying householders aid
the freemen, treated the latter holy of men most ungraciously,
Ile then moved, `4 That it be an instruction to the committee to
divide the bit! into.) Iwo bills."

Alley a short discussion, the hnuse divided, when there ap-
peared—for the comluittee,• 158; for the amendment, 68; Ina--
jnrity, 90. The house then resolved itself iutc a committee on
the bill.

On clause 1 being put from the chair, Mr. T. DUNCONIBE said
that he should propose an amendment, which was intended to.
act as a. must summary repeal of the rate-payiug clause alto-
gether. • It was to insert, in lines 16 and 17, the Words • except
such as shall have become payable from him (the rate-payer)
previously to the Ilth day of October in the preceding year:
Lord J. IiOssELL said that the lion. member-proposed to ex-
tend toe franchise to those who paid no taxes—a totally different
principle from that intended by the reform bill. if he admitted
this amendment, it would go to alter the anciant spirit- of the
constitution, and 'establish the principle that iusolvency and
beggary were as sufficient qualifications for voting as iude-
pen7lence and industry.
A discussion ensued, in the course of which Sir E. Scol3ol
said he was against all alterations in the reforth bill, which had
worked better than he had expected it would. This he attri-
buted to the goottsense of the people-of England.
On the division, the numbers were-4or the 'notion, 206; for
the amendment, 107 ; majority, 99.
After one or two amendments of small importance had been
negatived or withdrawn, the bill passed through the committee,
and was ordered to be reported.
The other bills of the day being then disposed of, the house'
adjourned at a quarter to twelve o'clock.

Notes of a Journey through Canada, the United States
of America, and the West Indies. Ur James Lof4an,

Esq., Advocate. Edinburgh : Fraser and Co. k33'

These notevontain an account of the author's travels
and voyagesiver a space of upwards of 20,000
accomplished within the short period of thirteen months,
and at an expense of only £350! Mr. Logan com-
mences with a journal of the voyage from Greenock to
Quebec. and then proceeds to describe his visit to Mon-
treal, Upper Canada, the State of Michigan, the Lakes,
tee Western States, the Eastern and Middle States, the
Southern States, the Island of Cuba, and Jamaica, con-.
eluding with an account of his passage to England. Of
course, he did not accomplish so long a journey •without,
meeting with his share-of incidents, which are pleasant
ly and graphically related. The work contains many.
valuable practical hints to the emigrant, and several
amusing and •unprejudiced sketches :of society in the
various places which he - visited. This•being one of the
most recent works which treats of the Canadas, it will
be perused with considerable interest. A map of the
route pursued by the author is prefixed to the volume.

Think ! London: C. 'Mitchell.

This little work contains much valuable instruction and
suitable admonition. The preface states that it was
written by a plain, self-instructed invalid, for the benefit
of those who never rightly THINK. We trust that the
object of its publication may be fully realised in leading
the thoughtless to prepare for eternity, and by inducing
in its readers a habit ofself-examination.
