HOUSE OF LORDS

The house met at five o'clock.
The Common Lodging-house Bill passed through
committee.

Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from Sir Alexander
Stewart, complaining of very serious losses upon his West
Indian property, by the operation of the act of 1833. He
also asked whether there was any truth in the report that
the slave-trade in Cuba was again become very rife.
The Earl of CLARENDON, in reply, was sorry to say
that the slave trade was now carried on to a considerable
extent in Cuba, notwithstanding the most active and
energetic remonstrances of Her Majesty's Consul General.
That officer had recently reported that such was the state
of the penal law in Cuba, in regard to slaves, that it was
impossible to rescue those who were newly imported when
once they had passed into the hands of their owners.
The Spanish Government had given most solemn assur-
ances that they would tako active measures to put down

the slave trade in Cuba, and every endeavour would be
made by this Government to put an end to the traffic.
The Chimney Sweepers' Act Amendment Bill wag►
after some debate, referred to a select committee.
The house adjourned at a quarter vast seven.

In our SHARE MARKET there has been a better
feeling, with a greater disposition to do business
during the past week. The market has had
altogether a sounder appearance about it, and from
the symptoms we should say that greater activity
and perhaps better prices may be looked for. From
investers the local stocks are still in demand, but
continue very scarce. Gas Shares are steady at 220,
notwithstanding the excitement about the electric
light. This day's quotations of business done are :

COTTON.—The market has been firm during the
week, particularly for American descriptions, which
have been strengthened by the advices from the
other side of continued decrease in the supplies.
The stock of American here is now 467,300, against
469,300 bales last year, being a slight falling off,
and the total stock, including all sorts, is 710,300,
against 601,700 bales last year. Surat has been in
good request, at a slight alvance in price. No
change in Brazils. Egyptian of slow sale at pre-

PROVISION MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, MAY 20.—The demand for Beef is languid,
and the week's transactions afford little room for comment,
holders, in the absence of demand, are content to look on, the
stock proving less than has been generally expected. There is
a better feeling towards Pork, the low qualities especially are
more looked after. For Bacon there is au excellent inquiry, at
fully last week's prices, and all the late arrivals are sold;
Shoulders have advanced 6d to is per cwt.; Hams, in salt, in-
quired for. Lard has only been taken in retail, without change
in prices. Cheese sells at extreme rates.

islAy 23.—The best descriptions of Butter have declined 6s
to 8s per cwt. since this day week, but the transactions have
been on a limited scale the last few days, as dealers bought
with caution, in expectation of a further reduction. The most
esteemed brands of Waterford, Carrick, and Clonmel, have
fallen to 98a to 100 s; Limerick, 93s to 945; Cork thirds 100 s;
fourths 945, and fifths 84s per cwt. landed, and the supply being
good and increasing, lower rates are looked for. Imported
from Ireland from the 16th May to the 21st May, 1853, both
inclusive :-11,931 firkins, 106 kegs, 491 crocks, 346 boxes, 372
barrels Butter ; 69 bales Bacon ; 4 hogsheads 12 tierces Hams ;
295 kegs Lard.

WOODSIDE FERRY.

The passenger traffic by the various ferries across the
Mersey, during the past week, has been unprecedented
for its extent and duration. The following are the num-
bers which passed through the toll-gate of the Woodside
Ferry, in addition to the passengers who contract :
Sunday, May 15th 19,629
Monday, „ 16th.............. 37,30
Tuasday „ 17th 22,446
Wednesday, „ 18th ...
Thursday, ~ 19th • . 16,592
Friday, ~ 20th..
Saturday, „ 215 t....

Total for the Week..

...156,125

It has been suggested that it would be a considerable
improvement to the Landing Pier, at Woodside, if a
chain and posts were placed down the centre, so as to
separate the passengers landing from those about to
embark. Such an arrangement would help to secure the
Commissioners from fraud, and also promote the con-
venience of the public.

MELANCHOLY MARRIAGE-DAY.

SINGULAR SCENE AT THE NECROPOLIS

An instance which strikingly illustrates the uncertainty
of human life occurred in Liverpool last week. By an
accident which occurred in the Wapping tunnel on Tues-
day, a young and promising man, William Falkner, was
deprived of life. He was to have been married on the
Sunday succeeding his death, and all the preliminaries of.
the auspicious event had been arranged. But instead of
being united to his bride on that day, he was committed
to the dust. The deceased, who was thus prematurely
cut off in the flush of activity and hope, was a respected
member of one of the Orange lodges in the town, the
members of which, in token of their respect for his
memory, decided upon following his remains to the grave.
They very judiciously resolved, however, that their cus-
tomary badges should be dispensed with on the occasion,
and that they should only wear the usual symbols of
mourning. On arriving with the mortal remains of
the deceased at the Necropolis, considerable or'
prise was excited by the circumstance, that the gates
were closed and alt entrance forbidden, a posse of police
being in attendance for the purpose of enforcing order,
if necessary. A short altercation took place, during
which the assemblage at the gates of the burial-ground
increased to about fifteen hundred. Ultimately the
coffin and twenty of the more intimate relatives and
friends of the deceased were admitted, and the sad cere-
mony was consummated with due order and solemnity.
although not nearly the number of persons was admitted
into the chapel during the reading of the burial-service
that might have been accommodated within the precincts
of the edifice. We have been furnished with a notice
issued by the committee of the Necropolis, Low-hill, from
which it appears that no persons attending funerals 00
Sunday, wearing party or distinctive badges, shall be per-
mitted to enter the gates ; and secondly, that no persons
beyond a reasonable number of the relatives and friends
can find accommodation in the chapel. It seems to have
been a matter of complaint, however, in the present in-
stance, that the chapel could easily have accommodated 3
far greater number of individuals than were admitted.

EASTERN AFFAIRS.

The. Standard's City article says--``Aithough new com-

sailed for the Mediteranean, scarcely any effect has been
produced on the market for Public Securities this morning.:
There is no later news from Turkey than the telegraphic
report in the Morning Post, that the Russian ultimatum
is rejected.
The Times correspondent, writing from Constantinople
on the 9th, says—the Russian ports of the Black Sea are
at this moment crowded with the munitions of war, and
the heights above Odessa are covered with the tents of a
large army. On the banks of Prutii, we are assured, the
pontoons are already made, and the vast army collected
there wait but the signal to enter the principalities. The
Russian Ambassador is already at Buynkdere, a village at
the mouth of the Bosphorus, with a steamer, ready to
bear him away to
i his command the moment an un-
favourable answer s given.
