vanisoce was ocaasloned both to solicitors and suitors by the
inns of court, and various plans had been suggested to remedy
that which was really a great evil. Amongst these plans was
one for the erection of courts of law and equity in Lincoln's
Inn-tields, and another suggested Clare-market, but these
were matters that would be-for the committee to report upon.
Sir E. WILmoT seconded the motion, which was agreed to.
Sir M. Wool), having presented a petition from thc no-
bility, gentry, bankers, &c., of the metropolis, praying that
the house would adopt some means for opening Waterloo,
Southwark, and Vauxhall Bridges, moved for the appoint-
ment of a select committee to take into consideration the
several plans for the improvement of the metropolis, con-
cerning which reports were made to the house in the years
1836, 38, 39, and 1840, together with any other plans for the
same object which they may deem worthy of consideration,
and also the petitions for throwing open the bridges free of

toll.
The motion was agreed to) and the house adjourned

HOUSE OF LORDS.—WEDNESDAY
The House of Lords did not sit to-night.

It is proposed by some parties who have known the un-
fortunate Mr. WILLIAM JENNER, in times long gone by,
at home and abroad ; when he was respectably connected
and doing a large business in the Cotton trade—and who
very sincerely deplore the melancholy events which have so
recently occurred to himself and his family :—that a sub-
scription should be opened for the purpose of raising a fund
to support, educate, if necessary, and put in some way of
getting an honest livelihood the only remaining child, a boy
about 13 years old, who (appears to have shewn very great
courage and presence of mind under the awful and distres-
sing circumstances by which he was surrounded, and is now
left destitute in the world.
Those persons, therefore, who are disposed to promote the
above object, will please to signify their kind intentions to
either Of the subscribers, who will be happy to receive any
contributions, and to dispose of them as may be deemed best
for the benefit of the poor boy, by a committee to be ap-
pointed hereafter.
It is further understood that Mrs. Jenner, if she should
survive, shall be included in any arrangements that may be
made for the disposal of the amount collected.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tit is DAN

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.)

Although the arrivals into this place since our report of
the 27th instant have been generally inconsiderable, and the
stocks of Wheat in the hands of our millers are allowed to
be very moderate ; yet with a continuance of exceedingly
fine weather, the trade on the whole has been heavy from the
close of Tuesday until to-day, but without inducing holders
to force sales below the currency of our last circular.
Duties for the ensuing week have been raised on foreign
Wheat to 23s Bd, on Peas to 12s Gd per qr., and on Flour to
14s 2-id per barrel, remaining, in all other respects, un-
altered.

In anticipation of the increased duty on Wheat and Flour,
b oth these articles in bond have been entered freely for con.
sumption during the week ; about 20,000 quarters of the
former, and about 9,000 barrels of the latter, being, in the
absence of any official return from the customs, the quanti-
ties.supposed to have been cleared since the 23d instant.
At our market this morning transactions in Wheat were
effected upon a moderate scale to needy buyers, principally at
a decline of ld. per 701bs. from the rates last noted—and a
few parcels, held by more anxious sellers, were sold on still
lower terms, but which there was no apparent disposition to
concede generally. _ _

' Flour of all descriptions, both' free and in bond, met a
very limited demand at late prices.

Barley, Malt. Beans, and Pease, attended with an ex-
tremely languid sale, barely maintained our last quotations.
Oats, although not in lively request, fully supported Tues-
day's rates, very few good parcels remaining unsold. Oat-
meal was held rather more firmly, but not readily saleable,
at higher prices.

LIVERPOOL COTTON

MARKET, 3 P.M

The demand for Cotton, to-day, has been very limited,
and not more than 2000 bales have been disposed of at yester-

Lay's prices

- .
The sales of the week are only 11,300 bales ; of which, are
placed to speculation account, 800 American, with 550
American and 400 Surat, to export ; so that consumers have
taken less than 10,000 bales, a fact which speaks volumes for
the desperate state of trade.
