The arrivals of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal to this port, during

tinned to show much firmness, and, upon a moderate business
only, have established an advance of Id to 2d per bushel on our last

city of Oats has enhanced their value id per 451bs ; the demand,
however, has been entirely confined to needy buyers.—Oatmeal.
too, has brought rather higher prices, but has not sold freely : 275
6d per 2401bs an extreme rate for the best Irish.—Two or three

HOUSE OF LORDS.-

•TLIURSDAY

The Earl of DEVON asked the noble Secretary for the
HOme Department if it was true that the valuator of the poor
law union of Cloghereen, in the county of Tipperary, when
called upon to read his valuation book at a meeting of the
guardians, had read the names, adding to the first name read
" tory," to the second name " tory," :o the third name,
" tory and disturber," and so on. This was a proceeding so
extraordinary that he felt it necessary to call the attention of
the noble marquis to the subject. •
The Marquis of NORMANBY said that this was the first in-
timation he had of such an occurrence, but he should cause
inquiries to be made respecting it immediately.
After the representation of some petitions, their lordships
adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.--FRIDAY

Mr. LABOUCHERE, in reply to a question from Mr. Ewart,
stated that Government did intend to make an alteration in
the duties on Neapolitan oil, but he could not say what al-
teration would be.
Lord J. RUSSELL moved the order of the day for taking
the Queen's message into consideration.
Mr. HUME inquired whether the Government was aware
of a charge made in India against Lord Keane, of murdering
a native trooper, which charge was published in an Indian

newspaper.
Sir J. C. HOBHOUSE said that the Government at home
had never officially heard of the charge, which was a gross
and groundless calumny, published in an Indian newspaper
under the anonymous signature of " Injured Innocence."
The noble lord vindicated the humanity of Lord Keane, and
instanced the fact that, during the advance of the army to
Ghuznee, not a single man, British or native, had been sub-
jected to corporal punishment.
Sir R. JENKINS and Mr. HOGG denied that any remon-
strance had ever been made to the East India Company on
the subject ; nor had they ever heard of it until they saw it
in the newspaper alluded to.
After some further conversation the house resolved itself
into a committee of the whole house, and Lord J. Russell
moved that £2,000 a year be granted to Lord Keane and to
his two next heirs.
Sir R. PEEL observed that, according to the forms of the
house, a seconder was not required, or he would have been
happy to second the motion. He did not care whether the
authors of these calumnies were prosecuted by Lord Kearne
or not. Probably, the more fitting name for " Injured In-
nocence" would have been " Detected Cowardice." He
thought this proposal for a pension should have been brought
forward earlier ; it ought to have followed immediately after
the peerage had been conferred. The right hon. baronet eu-
logised the importance of the services of Lord Keane, and
concluded by expressing his approval of the
pension.
Lord Howicx paid no attention to the story from an Indian
newspaper, but appealed to the economical policy of Queen
Elizabeth, in the distribution of rewards, as an example
worthy of imitation. He commented on the profusion too
often displayed by the house, and of which they now felt the
'Accts. He disliked granting these Pecuniary rewards, more

"The steam is up" and we are " going ahead," but too fast to be

market, which is so to speak, the " safety valve" of the Cotton
market in times like these, for though speculators may operate,
and that to a great extent, their influence is of a very evanesccent
character, and soon spends itself. A much larger business has
been done since the weather became decidedly fine and settled.
Yesterday 3000 bales, and to day neatly 8000; of these exporters
have taken 1648 and speculators 2500 bales, leaving a fair supply
for the market, which has been bought at about id advance on
last week's prices.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AuG. 17

The good demand and better feeling noticed in our Cotton
market yesterday has continued throughout to-day, and about
2500 bales have been sold, some to export and speculators,
but the quantities have not transpired. Prices more even
than of late, and decidedly a firmer market.

market, which is so to speak, the " safety valve" of the Cotton
market in times like these, for though speculators may operate,

have taken 1640 and speculators 2500 bales, leaving a fair supply
for the market, which has been bought at about id advance on
last week's prices.

COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 19

The improved tone and feeling noticed in our market since Mon-
day still continues, yet the demand is not so great, owing probably
to the inability of the trade to give the advanced price of id per
lb now generally demanded, and in most instances obtained. The
quantity sold to-day is 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American have
been bought by speculators, and 300 by exporters. Purchasers
complain that they cannot get on satisfactorily, and have been com-
pelled to take Cotton. Ther refused yesterday.

COINING.

James Crossley, 30, and Margaret Crossley, 28,- were
charged with having made eighty counterfeit sixpences, at
Whalley.

The Attorney-General and Mr. Pollock appeared for the
prosecution, and the prisoners were undefended.
Part of the proof, in this case, rested on the testimony of a
man named Abraham Mitchell, who had made acquaintance
with the prisoners, and who had informed the police of their.
proceedings, and upon the evidence of a woman who had her-
self been accused of coining. These two testified to the fact
of the prisoners having ben seen employed in the act of
making sixpences. The male prisoner averred that Michael
himself took the moulds and other materials to his house,
and cast a number of sixpences; melting down bad shillings
for the purpose. The police officers went to the house, and
found moulds and other materials usually found in casting
counterfeits, with several base sixpences and shillings.
His LORDSHIP expressed a strong opinion that the em-
ployment of individuals for the purpose of bringing crimes to
light by espionage was extremely reprehensible, and fre-
quently productive of great evil.
The jury inquired if Mitchell were to receive anything on
the conviction of the prisoners. It appeared that he had re-
ceived regular wages, and that nothing tinned on this con-
viction.

The jury found the prisoners guilty, but recommended
them to mercy under the opinion that they bad been the
dupes of others.
Sergeant ATCTIERLEY said that the male prisoner had but
just been released, after having served two years in Lancaster
Castle.
His LORDSHIP deferred passing sentence.

THEATRE ROYAL.

Have you been to see Cerrito ? if not, you must do so.
When the enraptured lover saw Alice Grey he declared,
" She was all that fancy painted her," but we defy fancy the
most vivid to picture Cerrito. Words are but faint vehicles
to express the loveliness of this charming danseuse. She
appears before you like a fairy creature ; you are captivated
at once; you welcome her—she bounds forward—now rises
like a rocket—only she does not go quite so high—and alights
like a flake of snow on a velvet lawn ; now she turns on her
charming little toes vith the velocity of a multiplying wheel,
seeming all the while
Between two worlds, hovering like a star"—
then she gracefully sinks, with a sweet smile upon her face,
the very impersonation of a sylph, or " a pens just loosed
from its cage." Those who will not admit a genius in
dancing should, by all means, see Cerrito, and let them ask
themselves how many years it would take to teach them to
execute one pas even, with her inimitable grace, and be able so
" To trip it, as they go,
On the light, fantastic toe."
The beautiful pas de Quatre, from the " Lac de Fees,"
was danced by Mademoiselle Cerrito, Monsieur Guerra,
Miss Webster, and Miss O'Brian. The figures and move-
ments are composed by Signor Guerra, and are extremely
beautiful and full of grace. Mons. Guerra is a splendid
dancer ; he is decidedly the first of the day ; his style is
superb, his maniere is manly and elegant, his entrechats are
brilliant, his a plomb is firm, while his pirouettes and tours
de force are wonderfully effective and well managed. The
Styrienne is a charming dance. On Wednesday it was
encored. The concluding waltz is a most extraordinary, we
may say astonishing, performance ; it is positively wonderful.
The applause it met with was immense. Mademoiselle
Cerrito danced a cachuca splendidly on Wednesday night, as
a Gitana. In fact, she has delighted all by her exquisite
skill, and wrung a cheer from those " all unused to the
cheering mood." Miss O'Brian is an excellent and talented
dancer, Miss Webster has only the misfortune to have an
Enght6 name—if she bore one from sunny Italy, Spain, or
anywhere but "this bright isle," she would be pronounced
an artiste of astonishing promise : that she is so, none can
deny. We look upon her as possessed of great talents. Her
style is excellent, and her execution brilliant. Her dancing
has not been thrown into the shade by being compared with
Cerrito's. While we indulge thus in speaking of new friends,
we must not forget old ones. Harley the versatile, droll,
I, has been making " laugh-
ter Humphreys, Lubin Log,
gay,te r andol hold bothnirthhis st
sides, as
asrl
Tom, Billy Lackaday, and other capital characters. He has
been well supported by Messrs. Baker, Holl, Vivash, Chap •
lin, and Slaiter, Miss Honner,and Madame Simon.
This evening, the Opera Company make their appearance.
The house will be very full, no doubt. Go soon, and stand
not to the order of your going—those who wish to hear them.
