LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, MAY 16.

- -
Our imports of British Grain, Flour and Oat Meal, since this day
se'nnight, have been very small ; but from abroad the receipts have
been large, comprising 28,000 quarters of Wheat, 1;300 quarters of
Oats, 11,550 quarters of Barley, 1,326 quarters of Peas, 1,185 qrs.
-et Rye, and 12,580 barrels of Flour. As regards those of .Vheat
and Fic-tir, however, the whole, or nearly so, have, for the present,
been plaCed under bond, duties having been paid (since Friday,
when the rates of import advanced to 16s Sd per quarter and les
per barrel) upon only 00 quarters of Wheat and 770 barrels of
Flour. Of other articles there have been released, during the
week, 10,110 quarters of Barley, 232 quarters of Beans, and 35
quarters of Peas. With continued fine rains and favourable ac-
counts from the country generally as to the growing crops, we
have had little animation in the corn trade, and the bias of most of
the leading articles has been slightly towards decline : for none
except free Foreign Flour, however, do we materially vary our
last quotations ; this article must be quoted 6d to is cheaper, 36s 6d
being a top price for American. Oats, upon a very limited supply,
have been held with firmness, but few have been sold; the same
remark may be applied also to Oatmeal. Two or three parcels of
Barley, for grinding, have found buyers at about late rates, and
most of the Indian Corn has gone into second hands (some for
Irish account) at 395 to 405 per 4801bs. Beans are scarce and rather
dearer. Peas as last noted.

[ORIGINAL.]
ON BEING ASKED
OBY A G
'SENTLEMAN, " WHAT
IS A WMAN LOVE?"

Oh, ask me not in words to tell
What is a woman's love!
But look around, where'er yc dwell,
In courtly hall or lowly cell,
Each will confess its magic spell,
Its witchery will prove.
Go to the court, where splendour shines,
In varied joys around ;
Go to the hut, where misery pines,
And see how woman's love entwines,
In viewless bonds, in shapeless signs,
A balm for ey'ry wound.
'Tis this which lights the monarch's brow;
Alone could he be blest ?
The streams that wealth and power bestow
Unheeded fall. and joyless flow,
Unless a woman's fondness throw
Its sunshine.o'er their breast.
The love of woman ne'er was told !
Can empty words impart
Such faith, such love, unbought by gold,
Nor e'en by worst of wrongs made cold,
When shrin'd within the inmost fold
Of faithful woman's heart ?
It is to hope through worst despair ; • '
To love while others hate ;
To smile through many a falling tear;
The hour of adverse skies to cheer ;
The object of her love
darkest fate.
And what is hope's most brilliant tiow'r,
Unless she twine the braid ?
Nay, what was Eden's rosiest bow'r,
Till woman's smile beguil'd each hour,
Gracing• bode of peace pow'r,
With blossoms tha tine'er fade ?
The richest treasure that Heav'n bestows,
In mercy from above ;
The source whence truest rapture flows,
The purest bliss that mortal knows,
The star with softest light that glows,
Is this—a woman's love !

In consequence of the numberless applications for a copy of

corrected report of the speeches ,at the Meeting in the
Amphitheatre. on Wednesday last, in the form of a
PAMPHLET, which will be ready TO-MORROW.
The letter transmitted to us last night, relative to the absurd
new postage covers, shall appear on Friday.
We have been requested to correct a slight error which ap-
peared in a paragraph in the Standard of Friday, relative
to the ship Mysore, now lying in No. 1, Queen's Graving
Dock—that vessel was built by Mr. Cato for Messrs. Chap-
man and Willis, and not by the latter gentlemen, as pre-
viously stated by us.
We have heard a whisper of the extraordinary scene which
took place yesterday in one of the docks, but we have not
been able to ascertain the particulars with sufficient accu-
racy to give insertion to them to-day.

NEWSPAPER STAMP RETURN.

The return to' the number of stamps issued to the several
newspapers in Great Britain and Ireland, from the Ist day of
January to the 31st day of March, dB4O, has just been
printed by order of the House of Commons.
With respect to the number issued, according to the re-
turn, for The Albion, we deem it necessary to remark, that
it does not represent the number actually CONSUMED in the
publication of our journal, during the quarter ending on the
31st of March. IN Mist the return from the Stamp-office
gives The Albion credit for 35,000 only issued during the
quarter, Messrs. Wrigley and Sons, our paper-makers, state,,
that they took out for us, during that period, 12,500 in Janu-
ary, 13,000 in February, and 16,000 in March ; making a
total of 41,500 in the quarter. Whether our agents or the
Stamp-office are correct we have not, at present, the means
of ascertaining. The official return of stamps issued for
the six months ending on the 31st of December last gave
The Albion credit for 94,500 ; but, as, on the subject of our
circulation, we have always told the truth, we Stated then,
that we had consumed 87.600 only of that n tuber ; giving
us an average weekly circulation of 3,244. Whether, in-
stead of having taken out 12,500 stamps for sin the month
of January, Messrs. Wrigley and Sons ok out only the
6,500 credited to The Albion in the official return, sending
forward, during the first part of he onth, the 7,000 in
hand as stock at the close of 1839, we now not. All that
we can state, at present, is, that eceived, from those
gentlemen. in the quarter ending o i he 31st of March, the
V
period embraced in the Stamp-ottic eturn, 42,500 stamps;
and that we actually CONSUMED, in he publications of The
Albion, during the same period, 41,019; giving us a weekly
average, for the thirteen weeks, of 3,155 papers.
We subjoin, for the satisfaction of our advertising friends
the amount of our weekly circulation during the quarter em,
braced in the Stamp-office returns :
January 6 3092 March 2..
f, 13 3799 „ 9.:
„ 20 3lll „ 16..

February 3, 3225 ~ 30..
10 3122
11 17 3054 Total 41,019
~ 24 3Oll Or, weekly, 3155
It will be remembered we stated, that the uniform penny
postage, which commenced in the second week of the quarter,
would deprive The Albion, Mercury, Times, and other local
papers of the circulation caused by the publication of corn-
circulars in the respectiVe papers. That measure deprived
The Albion of upwards of 150 copies per week. So that, in
comparing the circulation of our journal, as well as that of
other journals similarly situated, with the last and previous
quarters, the reduction in number caused by the introduction
of the penny postage must be borne in mind. Had it not
been for that measure, the average circulation of The Albion,
during the last quarter, would have exceeded 3,300 copies
weekly. As it is, we have the satisfaction of knowing, that
we continue to hold the same relative position among our
ounteoporaries which Ty'G have for years helcii-s-illbion.

Freehold Close of LAND, called the Green, conveni-

the Liverpool Exchange, containing statute measure

closure Act, but on those restrictions being removed, of
which, from recent inquiries, there is every reasonable pros-
pect, it would form a very eligible site for the erection of
three or four Ornamental Villa Residences, which are at
present in great request in that neighbourhood ; and its value
to a purchaser would thereby be incalculably enhanced.

to deceive the unwary—the Proprietors, acting under a sense
of duty, and regardless of expense in the attainment of their
object, the protection of the Public from fraud and imposi-
tion, have employed those celebrated artists Messrs. Perkins
and Bacon, who have succeeded in producing " A NEW
LABEL" from steel, of so complicated and intricate a
nature, and of such excessive difficulty in its execution, as to
amount to an impossibility of imitation, and to be considered
by connoiseurs a masterpiece in the art of engraving.
The Label forms a combination of beautiful designs—a
portion encircling a Bust of Her Majesty the " Queen"—
which surmounts the words, in two lines,

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

The letter of " Cymro" respecting the approaching " Eis-
teddfod" has been received. If we find, on inquiry, that
our correspondent is correct in his statements, we shall
publish his communication on Friday.
We hope to be able to lay before our readers on Friday, some
interesting and important particulars respecting the pro-
ceedings before the Committee of the House of Commons,
on the Dock Warehouse Bill. We understand that it is
by no means improbable that the Dock Committee will not
have the controul of the trust now vested in them much
longer. They are not only likely to prove unsuccessful in
their application to Parliament, but there is reason to
apprehend that they will draw upon themselves conse-
quences which they have little anticipated.

LORD STANLEY'S IRISH REGISTRATION
BILL. •

As the interest about this bill continues undiminished,
and as several important alterations may possibly be
suggested and carried in its progress through com-
mittee, by the advocates of the present iniquitous sys-
tem of registration in Ireland, the public will do well
to put themselves in possession of its reasonable and
salutary provisions. We have reason to believe that
the most beneficial effects have resulted from the
speeches at the Amphitheatre, on the 13th instant,
when the details of the measure were calmly and tho-
roughly discussed, and the objects of its opponents
opened out. The operatives of this town have, for the
last few days, been literally deluged with the most
ridiculous caricatures, affecting to be a faithful out-
line of Lord Stanley's bill, and as numerous applica-
tions have been made to us for information on the
subject; we have been induced to publish a report of
the meeting alluded to, in the form of a pamphlet,
which may be obtained at the usual places, at a price
which makes it procurable by all classes.
