PAWNING MONEY.—In Galway I was assured tnat so
little do the people know the commercial value of money,
they are constantly in the habit of pawning . I was so
incredulous of this that the gentleman who informed me
wished me to go with him to any pawnbroker to assure
myself of the fact; and I Went with him and another gen-
tleman to a pownbroker's shop kept by Mr. urray, in
Galway. On asking the question, the shopinan said it
was quite a common thing to have money pawned, and he
produced a draper containing a £lO Bank of Ireland note,
pawned six months ago for I0s.; a 30a. note of the Na-
tinal Bank, pawned for 10s. ; a 30,. Bank of Ireland note,
rawned for Is. ; a £1 Proviiici,l Bank note, pawned for
65.; and a guinea in gold of the r&:- HI
pawned for 15s. two months ago. Any
ishly ignorant and absurd than this it is
to conceive. The £lO bank note would produ

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

'The letter of " E." was received too late for even perusal.
Several communications are pressed out by an ui.usual flow of
indispensable matter yesterday.
A correspondent states that dining the past winter, Boot's-lane,
Kirkdale, has been quite impassable, it having been in a most
disgraceful state, in many parts mud has been ankle deep,
and in others, particularly opposite to Liver-crescent, and
extending to Yewtree-lone, beds of mud have been collected
from sw,epings of the road, until a complete pool has been
formed which has forced the inhabitants to go a considerable
way round. Our correspondent adds that we may consider
what a nuisance it is when the scavengers who appear about
once a mor.th have thought it a disgrace to the authorities.
Several other p-asons have addressed us on the same subject.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, Amu. 25.

We have been quiet during the week at the rates of our last.
At Wakefield. yesterday, fine Wheat was rather dearer; and
at Liverpool prices were well supported
At our market th s morning, hest Wheats fully sustain, and
in some cases. rather exceed late p ices.
Flour not in so good demand as 'ast week, but fine qualities
firm .y support previous value : stale parcels and secondary new
are c ►icult of sale.

Oats and Oatmeal slow of sale. but without alteration in value.
Fine Beans scarce, and fully as dear. Malt steady.

CORN EXCHANGE. APRIL 24.

The duty on Foreign Rye is reduc:d to Si 6d. and on Colonial
to 6(1 per quarter. being the only change in the import rates
from those of last week.
The prevalence of easterly winds bas prevented any important
arrivals of English. Irish, or Foreign produce since Monday
last; i=nd during the interim from Tuesday to this date, we may
generally describe the trade as wanting animation, but support-
ing late prices where t ansactions have taken place.
A very slender attendance of buyers at this d .y's market, and
an apparent determination on the part of millers to remain in.
active caused en extremely dull sale for free Wheat of all de-
scriptions : holders, notwithstanding, refused to accept lower
terms, and we may consequently repeat our quotations nomi-
nally the same as on Tuesday. Similar remarks are applicab e
to in me-m• de, Irsh, and Canadian Flour, each being equaliy
difficult of disposal at late prices.
Prime Barley, adapted for M,lt and sowine, would sell for
th•,se purposes at former rates, but of such little or none remains
here; whilst grinding samples continue to meet a very limited
inquiry Malt, upon a moderate demand, was steady in value.
Beaus a d Pease in slow request, each merely sustaining our
last currency.
Oats, in the absence of country dealers, met little attention,
but cannot be noted cheaper ; and Oatmeal was taken sparingly
by consumers at our last quotations. Indian Corn, being still
in good request. commanded Is, per qr. advance. being the only
article in the trade in the value of whi..h any decided improve-
ment was acquirable to-day.
From the present unce; tain state of the Corn Bill, no recent
operations in the bonded market have transpired.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY.

On the rumion of Sir J. GRAHAM tie house resolved
itself into a Committee for the further consioeraiioo of the
report oa the Friendly S icieties Bill. Some conversation
took place on th- Ise and 2d clauses of the bill, and seve-
ral suzaestions offered by hon. members were inc3rporated
into them. On the 33 clause
M.. T. DUNCOMBE pronc-ed an amendment, of which
the r ff-ct was to legalize all friendly societies at present
estab ii-hed. In proposlne that amendment, he admitted
that sum, had been his object in introducing the hill.
Sir J. GRAHAM objected to this an endurent, and, after
some conversation, it was negatived by a majority of 93
over 7 voices
Several verbal amendments were then made in the bill.
'which was considered up to clause 15. The house then
resorted, the chairman reported progress, and the bill was
ordered to be recommitted on F:6l-1 next.
Mr. ELPEI INSI ONE then moved the second reading of
the County Elections Bill, of which the object is to limit
the time for taking the poll in counties to one day, as is
now th, case to boroughs. Lie vindicated the change on
the ground that it would lead to a great saving of expense.
Colonel T. Woon moved that the bill be read a second
time tlot (lay six months, on the ground of the inconve-
nience of the change which it propo•ed to make. When
a contest was going on in several adjacent counties at the
same time, the electors might not be able to record their
Totes in each of them on one day.
After a conversation, in which Lord 'Worsley, Mr.
New(-eate, Mr. Bright, Mr. B. Denison, Sir J. Graham,
Sir R. luglis. r. B. Escort, Colonel Sibthorp. and Lord
G. Benrinck joined, the house divided, when the amend-
ment was carried by a majority of 55 over 32 votes. The
bill was acc,,rdingly lost.
The Railway Deposits' Bill, and the Commons Enclo-
sure Bill were read a third time and passed.

ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.

THE COMING SEASON.

TT is with unmingled gratification that the Subscribers
and Patrons of this Popular Retreat for Summer Recreation
are informed that the arrangements for the forthcoming Season,
which are on a SCALE of GRANDEUR UNPRECEDENTED,
have been for some time in active operation. The Alterations
and Additions to facilitate the obj eel's of the Gardens, are so
numerically GREAT and MAGNIFICENT, that they will form
AN ENTIRE AND VALUA :LT CHANGE in almost every
prominent feature in the E: .lishment.
The subject selected f. he PYROTECHNIC DISPLAYS OF
THE SEASON is on .f no ordinary character, offering capa-
bilities for the mos -uperb Illumination, being a View of

THE-CITY OF EDINBURGH
as it appeared on several occasions

DURING HER MAJESTY'S VISIT.

The Scene is taken from the Old Moat ;—the stern and mas-
sive Fortifications of the Castle towering to an immense height
on one side, while, on the other, are the beautifully laid out
CASTLE GARDENS, which will be so admirably executed,
and blend so naturally with the Local Scenery, that the specta-
tor will be at a loss to know where imitation ceases and reality
begins. A prominent View is obtained of the elaborate STATIi
OF SIR WALTER SCOTT; the SCHOOL OF ARTS, Prince's-
street; the BRIDGE connecting the Old and New Towns;
farther distant are seen HOLYROOD PALACE, in the Royal
Park; ARTHUR'S SEAT, CALTON HILL, with NELSON'S
COLUMN; and the TWELVE RUINED PILLARS OF THE
NATIONAL • MONUMENT. The FIRTH OF FORTH is
barely visible, and the HILLS OF Fl Flf.fit RE, softened ny-
distance, become mixed with the passing Clouds of Nature In
fine when Illuminated, it will form the very CLIMAX OF
BEAUTY AND PERFECTION, and show how justly this City
is entitled to the appellation of MODERN ATHENS 1

The Painting will be executed by Messrs. FINLEY and FEN-
TON, (of London,) from Sketches taken by themselves, while
accompanying, for Artistic purposes, the Royal Cortege.

THE PYROTECHNIC DISPLAYS
Will be under that management which has hitherto given such
unqualified satisfaction ; and with a subject so suited, it is an-
ticipated they will eclipse in MAGNITUDE and BRILLIANCY
the Gala displays of former years.
The peculiar liabilities of this locality to unsettled and un-
propitious weather, has induced the Proprietor to contract with
Messrs. FURNISS and KILPIN for the Erection of
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1846-04-28

HOUSE: OF LORDS.-THURSDAY.

The Earl of DALHOUSIE rose to move the bill and ses-
sional order aff sting projected railroads, of which he had
given notice before the adjournment of the house. After
a brief sketch of the progress of railway speculation dur-
ing the last year, and drawing the attention of the house
to the disastrous effects on commerce produced by the
absorption of capital in one branch of enterprise, the noble
earl pr.ceeded to specify the powers of winding up rail-
way projects afforded to directors and shareholders under
the prop 'serf bill, explaining the difference between it and
the sessional order as affecting inchoate schemes, and con-
cluded by moving that the resolutions which appear in an-
other column should be adopted as a sessional order.
Lord Raotacumig, though he could not agree in all the
details of the proposed measure, was ready to concur in
the principle which it contained. He had witnessed with
disgust the demoralizing effects of the railway mania
throughout the country, and was convinced that a stop
ought to he put to this universal spirit of gambling. The
sessional order, however, tying up as it did the hands of
the hou-e, was without precedent, and required the ut-
most deliberation, though he was ready to strain a point
for the sake of effecting a great national good. On the
whole, he begged to thank the Government for bringing
forward so useful a measure.
After a desultory discussion, in the course of which
Lord WHARNCLIFFE complained that the proportion of
sharehtdders requisite to decide on the withdrawal of a
project was too small, and the Marqiiis of CLAN RICARDE
wished to know whether the Iris-b lines were to be post-
poned as well as the English, the Earl of likt.nousig re-
plied that the proportion of shareholders, itn.ugh small,
was a minimum and not a maximum. and that, though
the Irish bills could not he exempted from the order,
every possible facility would be given for passing them.
The bill was then read a first time.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1846-04-28

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.
(BY EXPRESS.)

LONDON CORN EX -HA - r 11/47 ""zR —YESTERDAY.
At this day's market we had only a short supply of English
Wheat, which was qukkly sold at an advance of Is. per qr.
over the currency of this day week. Some transactions were
reported in floating cargoes, and there was rather more inquirY
for bonded, but the offers received were rather under late
rates.
During the week we received a better supply of English and
Irish Oats, and several cargoes of Foreign. There was less ac-
tivity in the demand to-day, and buyers made their purchases
at our previous currency.
The Barley trade is dull and rather cheaper. Malt in steady
request. Beans and Peas without alteration.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1846-04-28

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 21.

The arrivals into this port, Coastwise and from Ireland,
are still very moderate, except Flour and Malt, of which
we have to report a good sup. ly since this day week ; also
a tolerably fair import of foreign Wheat, Indian Corn,
and Beans with a further large influx of States Flour, in-
creasing the stock of the latter article in bond here to
nearly half a million barrels, that of Wheat to upwards of
230,000 qrs., and of Indian Corn to nearly 38,000 qrs.
At this day's market we had a moderate demand for
good free Wheats. at the improved rates of Friday, but
lower qualities are dull of sale.
Both sack and barrel Flours sell more readily, in some
Cases at a slight amendment in value.
Beans and Pease move in retail at the previous cur-
rency ; and Oats, as well as Oatmeal, meet a heavy sale,
without variation from the rates of this day week.
In bond, a few parcels of St +tes Flour have been taken,
the best reaching 265. per barrel ; and though we have
had several inquiries La Wheat, no actual business has
resulted.
