Our SHARE MAR'KET. has-been roused to some
extent during the week from the stagnation in
which it has long lain dormant, by the projected
measure of the new Chancellor of the Exchequer.
This, upon its first promulgation, induced several
speculative operations, which caused a considerable
advance in prices; these, however, not being
followed up by any purchases on the part of the
public, have had but a transient effect upon the
market, and we close today, with a preponderance
of sellers, decidedly weak, at lower prices. We

PRODUCE.—The market for Sugar has not been
so buoyant, owing to the depression in the London
market, and the Sales have been confined to 100
hhds. West India, 5,000 bags old Khaur, 700 bags
Mauritius, and 500 bags Madras. In Foreign,
also, very little doing. Coffee dull, the sales being
only 600 bags St. Domingo at former prices. Of
Rum, 600 puncheons, mostly Demerara, sold with-
out change in price. Tea in good demand, me-
dium Congous having sold at full prices, and green
at advanced rates. Of Rice, 3,400 bags Arracan
sold at previous prices. In black Pepper, the sales
were 150 bags, at 3id. per lb. Of Saltpetre, only
100 bags sold at 28s. 6d. to 30s. for 61 to 21 re-
fraction. For Guano a good demand ; 200 tons
Peruvian, in several hands, realised £ll 2s. 6d. to
7s. 6d. per ton, and 800 tons of lower kinds
sold at full rates. Little or nothing doing in
Hides. An active demand for Palm Oil; 550 tons
on the spot sold at £33 ss. to £34 per ton, and
1,250 tons to arrive at about the same rates. In
other Oils but little doing, without change in value.
Spirits of Turpentine dull. In Tallow, a con-
siderable business has been done at 465. to 465. 6d.
for new, and 455. 6d. per cwt. for old Petersburgh
Y.C. The demand for Jute steady; but, owing to
short supply, only 500 bales sold, at £2l ss. per
ton. In Baltic Hemp little doing. Linseed is
lower ; Bombay, 48s. and Calcutta. 475. per quarter.
American Rosin is declining.--To-DAY : The trans-
actions in Sugar by private contract consisted of
100 hhds. Demerara at 345., and 400 bags yellow
Dates at 335. 6d.; 255 hhds. Surinam sold by auc.
tion at 335. 9d. to 365. 6d., and 200 hhds. Porto
Rico at Ms. 2d. to 425, 3d. per cwt, Nothing doing

in Molaiges or Rum. The Tea market is quiet
holders, however, demand full rates, and in several
instances Teas have been withdrawn. 700 sacks
and 600 bags Bengal Rice brought 9s. 6d. to lOs.
' per cwt. for broken to ordinary yellowish white.
15 tons St. Domingo Fustic sold at £6 12s. 6d. per
ton, and 600 bags Cutch at 275. per cwt.
COTTON. The advices per Canada, which
steamer arrived yesterday, from Boston, confirm
the late accounts of the falling off in the receipts at
the Cotton ports, and also brings tidings of higher
quotations. It is now pretty generally believed,
both here and in America, that certain prices who
have had an interest in running parties down, to
enable them to execute their orders on moderate
terms, have greatly over-estimated the crop, and
that it will fall far short of their extravagant
anticipations. 'With the present enormous con-
sumption going on,not only in the Cotton districts,
but in the Woollen districts likewise, ' anything
short of a large crop would be a national evil. The
general estimates now vary from 3,100,000 to
3,200,000 bales. The weather was also exceed-
ingly wet, and preventing the planting in many
districts. There were no less than seven mails due
from the South, owing to the impassable state of the
roads.—The trade during the week was steady, there
being evidently a disposition to wait for further
advices. The sales on Friday and Saturday amounted
to 6,000 bales each day, of which about 3,500 were
on speculation and for export. TO-DAY the sales
reached 7,000 bales, at very firm prices ; and the
market closed with an upward tendency.
WooL.—Little offering here at present of any
description, consequently the transactions are not
extensive, the late arrivals are principally held for
the public sales, which are advertised for the 20th
instant, when about 4,000 bales will be offered for
public competition. The demand continues good,
and prices very buoyant. Imports for the week,
1,720 bales, namely :-381 Australian and Cape of
Good Hope, 255 East India, 114 Portugal, 371
Buenos Ayres, 5 Peruvian, 464 Mediterranean ports,
106 Irish, and 24 Coastwise. English and Irish
are very scarce. The farming districts have not
been better cleared for a great number of years ;
and, if the present large consumption continues,
prices may be expected to range even higher for
the new clip.

fox.—There is nothing particular to note in
thia market. To-day being a holiday in Glasgow,
there are no quotations of Scotch pigs.

SAM SLICK IN LIVERPOOL.

England is to have the honour of receiving in 1853 an
untpual number of the greatest literary celebrities of the
United States. Mrs. Beecher Stowe, the first novelist ;
Judge Haliburton, the first wit ; and Mr. Nathaniel Haw-
thorne, the first prose writer (if we except Mr. Washing-
ton Irving, perhaps). Mrs. Stowe is, even while we write.
in our immediate neighbourhood ; Sam Slick is not out of
Lancashire ; and very soon we shall have the author of
" The Blithedale Romance" settled amongst us as Arne-
ricnn consul. Mrs. Stowe's visit to this country has been
for some time past the subject of much conversation and
eager anticipation ; but. even in the midst of the uni-
versal enthusiasm, which her arrival on our shores is so well
calculated to create, the visit of the witty and the wise
Judge Haliburton, author of the amusing and instructive
" Sam Slick," will not be deemed unworthy of note.
Mr. Haliburton has, we believe, left Liverpool, though
he has not yet taken his departure from Lancashire. He
goes at first on a visit to his relative, Mr. Haliburton, of
Whitby, near Wigan.

MRS. HARRIET

BEECHER STOWE: IN

LIVERPOOL.

The author of " Uncle Tom's Cabin," who was unable
to leave New York by the Glasgow screw-steamer, which
arrived in the Clyde on Friday last, arrived at Liverpool
by the Canada, on Sunday morning. Having recovered
partially from the severe indisposition which prevented
her from leaving Andover, U.S., at the time originally
fixed for her departure, she made all haste to proceed by
the next vessel. During the voyage Mrs. Stowe suffered
from sea-sickness, and the result is that she is almost
entirely prostrated, though it is to be hoped that a few
days' rest in Old England will restore her to her wonted
strength. She is accompanied by her husband, the Rev.
Mr. Stowe •, and also by several of the Beecher family,
of which she is so distinguished an ornament. From
some misunderstanding, perhaps, no party proceeded
in the tug to receive Mrs.. Stowe. On landing she pro-
ceeded to the Dingle, where she is at present the guest
of our townsman, Mr. Cropper. Her stay, will, however,
be necessarily short, as she will hasten to Glasgow. from
the Anti-Slavery Society of which place she was first in-
vited to this country. It is understood that Mr. Stowe
accepted the invitation to visit this country with the view
of attending the approaching May meetings. In Glasgow
a public soiree is to be given to the distinguished lady
whose name, unknown a, year ago, is now to all ears
" familiar as a household word." We learn from. the
Greenock Advertiser, that the committee of the Ladies'
Anti-Slavery Association, in that town have been making
arrangements for a soiree-in honour of Mrs. Stowe. The
committee had transmitted to the secretary of the Glasgow
Association an invitation to be presented to Mrs.- Stowe
on her arrival. She and her husband, Professor Stowe,
are to be the guests of him Scott, Esq. of Finnart-hous e,
during their stay in Greenock, and Provost Martin has
kindly consented to preside at the soiree.
We understand that a• party of gentlemen and ladies
breakfasted yesterday morning with Mrs. Stowe, at the
Dingle, and among the clergy present to meet her were
the Rev. Dr. M'Neile, the Rev. Richard Burgess, rector
of Upper Chelsea, &c.

THE LIVERPOOL CONVICTS- LEFT FOR
EXECUTION.

The sentence of death passed at the recent Liverpool
assizes on Terrell and Williams, the unfotrunate men now
in Kirkdale gaol, will probably be carried into effect on
Saturday week. Since their sentence, the wretched men
have been placed in separate cells, under the usual sur-
veillance, a turnkey remaining with each, night and day..
Both of the convicts appear fully sensible of their deplora-
ble position. They appear penitent, and their conduct
is spoken,of as orderly and becoming. Terrell is under
the spiritual direction of a Romanist priest ; Williams
is ministered to by the Rev. Mr. Appleton, the respected
chaplainof the gaol. Terrell, who is only eighteen years
of age,. has led an irregular life, having, within the last
five or, six years, been several times in prison. He, has
been, once before confined in. Kirkdale, and more•than
once in, gaol in Manchester. He asserts that he did not
intend• to murder his victim when he inflicted the stab ;
and his friends are about to get up a memorial in his
favour to the Secretary a State. Williams,, who is
twenty-five years of age, is. a Welshman by birth. He
has sailed for about ten years in the American merchant
service ; and would appear to have no friends in this part
of the country, as he has not been visited by any one
since condemnation, nor has he yet communicated with
his relatives, if he have any, by letter. He is supposed
to belong to the neighbourhood of Carnarvon. It is a
carious fact that he appears in mistake to have murdered
the wrong man, the deceased not being the person who
had given the provocation.

NEW MAGISTRATE.—On Monday, at the Lancaster
Sessions, It. T. Gillow, Esq., of Leighton Hall, qualified
as a justice of the peace for this county.
ELECTION COMMITTEES.—The elections at the follow-
ing places are now undergoing investigation before com-
mittees, neither of which have yet come to a decision :
Athlone, Cockermouth, Dartmouth, Leicester, and
Taunton.

THE INVITATION of the Worshipful the Mayor of
Liverpool to the British Association, asking them to hold
the meeting for 1854 in Liverpool, will be laid imme-
diately before the president and council of that body by
Professor Phillips, of York.
THE REv. R. H. LUNDIE, M.A., delivered a lecture
on Tuesday last, at the Holy Trinity Church Institute,
Birkenhead, relative to the objects and working of the
Protestant Refuge for orphan and destitute children, at
Dusselthal Abbey, near the Rhine.
THE OPENING OF ST. AUGUSTINE'S SCHOOLS, Ever -
ton, will be an interesting event, several distinguished
persons interested in national education having promised
to attend. The Lord Bishop of the Diocese will advocate
their claims to support on Sunday next, in St. Augustine' s
Church.
LANCASTER ELECTION.—The election for a represen-
tative of this borough, in the room of Mr. R. B. Arm-
strong, unseated on petition, took place yesterday (Mon-
day), in the Town-hall. The candidates were Mr. John
Armstrong, brother of the unseated member, and Mr.
Thomas Greene, who represented the borough for 28
Years, till the last election. The mayor declared the
show of hands in favour of Mr. Armstrong, and a poll
being demanded, it will take place this day (Tuesday).
DEATH OF GEORGE TAYLOR, ESQ.—Mr. Tayloi, the
surveyor of inland revenue at this port, has departed this
life, much and deservedly respected, and, we regret to say,
unexpectedly, as he was attending to the important duties
of his office on Wednesday last. Mr. Taylor has long
been known in Liverpool as a gentleman and an officer of
the crown ; and few men either in or out of the service of
the revenue were more generally estimated. His aptitude
for business, coupled with his ease and polite manner,
eminently qualified him for the responsible situation which
he held; and we believe there is but one feeling amongst the
officers under his inspection and the merchants of this
port,--and that is one of general regret,

LIVERPOOL CHURCH OF ENGLAND

INSTITUTION.

THE third annual meeting of the above institution was
held in the society's rooms, 80ld-street, last evening.
Among the gentlemen present we noticed Harrnood
Banner. Esq., the Revs. W. F. Tayfor, G. W. Warr,
Thos. Moore, Messrs. P. Mitchell, Brake!, Saltier, Wm.
Roulston, Cropper, Mallett, Pickering, Gardiner, &e.
The chair was taken by E. Heath, Esq , who stated generally
the objects of the institution, and remarked that the great
difficulty was to secure permanence. The difference between
this institution and others with which he had been connected
was, that it had a prominent feature, the religious element,
which would serve as a bond of union, and promote its per-
manency. The lectures and discussion classes would also serve
the same object. The importance of concentrating our powers
on one or two objects, and pursuing these with steadiness, was
forcibly set forth, and its application to the institution clearly
stated.
The Honorary Secretary then read the
THIRD ANNUAL REPORT.

In presenting the third annual report, the committee have to
congratulate the members on the steady progress of the insti-
tution, and the experience of the past year gives them reason
to hope that the society, if judiciously managed, will be able
to carry out with success the objects for which it was formed.
To the list of life-subscribers have been added the names of
the three following gentlemen—viz., The Right Hon. Lord
Stanley, Charles Turner, Esq., M.P., and Thomas Littledale,
Esq., ex-Mayor. During the last five months, 70 new members
have been enrolled. The increase for the year at this rate
would have been 170, lint, through the negligence of the late
librarian, many members did not renew their subscription
when due, and numbers who could easily have been induced to
join, were never made aware of the advantages of the institu-
tion. The present librarian, whose zeal and intelligence the
committee duly appreciate and desire to acknowledge, has
im-
proved matters much since his appointment, and had the
same energy been applied during the entire twelve months, the
number of members would have almost doubled, and the ad-
vantages of the institution proportionably increased. It has,
however, more than maintained its ground, and the basis on
which it rests is more secure than before.
The committee desire to express their regret at the death,
during the past year, of their treasurer, who was one of the
earliest members who watched over the origin of the institution.
The members will see what has been going forward during
the year from the following summary
Lectures.—The public lectures, which (luring the two past
years formed such a prominent feature, have not been supplied
to the same extent this year. Great efforts were made to
secure distinguished and popular lecturers, but much difficulty
was experienced in making the necessary arrangements. Only
two public lectures were delivered, and a third, which was an-
nounced, did not take place, owing to the ill health of the lec-
turer. A loss of nearly .RlO having been sustained on the first
two, the committee did not think it desirable to have -any more
during the present year.
The lectures in the rooms to members and their friends have
been well attended, and have given much satisfaction. They
were ten in number, arranged into two courses, of five lectures
each. They treated of the history and doctrines of the Church,
and of such important subjects as ragged schools, emigration,
and natural history. The committee, on the part of the mem-
bers, desire to tlisnk the clergy and other gentlemen for their
kind and valuable aid in these lectures.
Newsroom.—This department has been well supplied with
papers, and every effort has been made to meet the suggestions
and wishes of the members. Several important magazines and
periodicals have been added. The average attendance of mem-
bers is large.
Library.—About £2O has been expended on the library dur-
ing the year. The members are indebted to the liberality of
Mr. Brakell, one of the life-members, for the catalogue of the-
books, which he presented to the institution. The committee
were most desirous of increasing the usefulness of this depart-
ment. A voluntary subscription was made, which amounted
to a small sum, and amattempt was made to have a soiree on a
large scale, for the express benefit of the library. They beg to
recommend this part of the institution to the particular atren-
tion of the new committee.
Classes.—One important object of the institution is to afford
its members an opportunity of improving themselves in any
branch of knowledge they may wash; and for this purpose
class-rooms are at their service, and classes in French, Italian,
&c., have been in active operation. The Mental Improvement
Class, which meets weekly, and which is now in its third ses-
sion, deserves special notice. Its aim is the mutual improve-
ment of the members. who meet together to train and mature
capabilities and powers to do good to mankind, which, but for
such co-operation, might have slumbered in inaction. Several
highly interesting and instructive subjests have been discussed
during the year, and, in the study and discussion of these,
members have instructed themselves, and mutually improved
and encouraged each other, and the result,' which we may
fairly anticipate, is, that each member may increase in such
useful knowledge as gains man weight of character, procures
for him respect, enables him to form an opinion correctly,
state it with clearness, offer it w2th-confidence, and enforce it
with argument. This class is deser,,king of the special attention
of the members of the institution.
Gyinizasiunt.—The use of an excellent gymnasium has been
added to the other advantages of the Institution during the past
year. It is in Colquitt-street, under the management of Mr.
Harrison. Annual and half-yearly subscribers can avail them-
selves of it by the payment of ss. per quarter. Some members
have availed themselves of the privilege, and it has been the
means of procuring new ones for the Institution. It is hoped
that this notice may direct the attention of members generally
to the fact, that there is a G ymnasiuus in connexion with the
Institution.

Finances.—The treasurer's abstract will not show as large an
amount of receipts and expenditure as in former years, owing
to the absence of public lectures. Tire accounts have been
examined monthly, and an exact statement laid before each
monthly meeting of the committee. These statements show
that the Institution is now all but self-supporting, and that,
were it not for the public lectures and other causes mentioned
above, there would have been a considerable balance in favour
of the institution.

The Committee would suggest that guinea subscribers have
the privilege of giving each a ticket wttransferable to a non-
member.

A special effort has just been commenced by those members
who are engaged in Sunday-school teaching, to bring the insti-
tution more prominently before the great body of Sunday-
school teachers in the town. Your Committee most cordially
and strongly approve of such a movement, and trust, by the
blessing of God, it may be crowned with success. They have
long felt that the institution has a strong. claim upon that im-
portant class of young men, a very small proportion of whom
have participated in its advantages. Its principles and objects
are such as must commend themselves to the support of every
one who is in any way labouring for the promotion of God's
glory and the good of his felow-men. As there is now no
Church of England Sunday-school Union.in town—no associa-
tion in existence specially devoted to those amongst whom
there should be a oneness of principle, of motive, and of
action—no society in which the inexperienced teacher may
gather knowledge, the young encouragement, and the despond-
ing sympathy,—your Committee would earnestly impress upon
the minds of Sunday-school teachers the desirability (they had
almost said the duty) of connecting themselves with us, and
making the Church of England Institution the very centre and
basis of such union.

Wherrthe committee consider the vast numbers of young
men engaged in business in such a town as. Liverpool, who
have neither home nor connexions, the importance of our in-
stitution, which can in some measure supply this deficiency,
and introduce them to the acquaintance of those who will
direct them to useful and improving pursuits, cannot be over-
estimated. They trust, therefore, that all the members will
exert themselves in gaining others, and they venture to express
the hope that the clergy and gentlemen-of the town who are
possessed of influence will give their aid cordially, as promoters
of the objects of the institution.
The Treasurer having read the abstract of accounts,

The Rev. W. F. TAYLOR moved the adoption of the report.
He diseoursed on the advantages of the Institution as a bulwark
against error. He pointed out the evils of Socialism, Mor-
monism, Chartism, and Infidelity in genera!, and showed how
the institution might act as a remedy, by instructing its mem-
bers in the best way of meeting these evils. He dwelt, also, at
length, on its adaptation to meet the great evil of the:age—the
assumption of Popery. The advantages which Sunday School
teachers would derive from connecting themselves with the
institution were clearly shown.

M. MITCHELL seconded the resolution. He explained the
causes of some drawbacks during the first six months, and
showed the present state of the society to be most favourable.

The second resolution—thanks to th eotficers of the past year,
was moved by Harmood Banner, Esq, He said it was very en-
couraging that the number of members was continually in-
creasing, and spoke well for the lasting prosperity of the
Institution. Mr. Banner referred to the importance of Ragged
Schools. He alluded to the various institutions in the town
forpreventing juvenile delinquency, and bringing up the rising
generation in the fear of the Lord ;: and showed the impor-
tance in this respect of efforts on the part of the members of
the Church of England Institution.
The Rev. G. WOVARR seconded the resolution, and remarked
on the importance of concentrating the mind on one or two
objects at most. The main object-of the institution was that
it was especially for the young inen.of the town. The clergy felt
deeply the responsibility of the charge when young men were
committed to their care. The institution was in all speciality
intended for the young men, and the fact that it was a Church
of England institution was•an additional fact of great impor-
tance.

The REV. THOMAS MemaE moved the thanks of the mem-
bers to those gentlemen who have lectured for the Institution,
which was seconded by Mr. ELLis, and carried unanimously.
Mn. GARDINER proposed, " That the year close with the
31st of December; and, that the annual meeting be held in
January," Seconded by, Mr. SALTIER, and carried. _ _

The officers were then- re-elected, and the vacancies in the
committee were supplied ; and after a vote of thanks to the
chairman, the meeting separated.

MR. RICHARD DowN, formerly of this port, and lat-
terly of London, has been selected for the office of Comp-
troller and Lhruling Surveyor of Melbourne, South
Australia, at a salary of £BOO per annum

APOTHECARIES.—Amongst thenames of those who have
just passed their examination at Apothecaries'-hall and
received certificates to practise were those of Mr. Thomas
A. Moore, of Preston, and Mr. W. E. Vaughan, of Crewe.

THE OLD PEAL OF BELLS AT WALLASEY, east in
1730, by Mr. Luke Ashton. of Wigan, have been tuned
and rehung by Mr. W. Thistlewood, of Liverpool. They
were hung on Easter Tuesday last.
THE SCREW STEAMSHIP GLASGOW (the one in which
Mrs. Stowe was to have sailed) arrived at Glasgow on
Friday, after a passage of 12 days 20 hours. She brought
three days' later news than received per Africa.
THE GOLD ON BOARD THE GREAT BRITAIN.—Tha
weight of the gold brought in freight was 3 tons, 13 cwt.
and 11 ounces. Many of the passengers were also in Pos-
session of large quantities of gold dust and nuggets, pro-
bably 10,000 ounces more, One of the passengers brought
£15,000, made in a public-house in Melbourne. Two
others £30,000, made by keeping a circus. A carter
brought home £2,000, and one man on board had a nugget
of pure gold, weighing 8 lbs., which he picked up himself.
THE WELSH EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION AT LLAN-
DovEßY.—Our talented young townsman, Mr. Robert G.
Williams, has been appointed mathematical tutor and
professor of chemistry, &c., at the above institution.
When a boy be entered the lower school of the Mechanics'
Institution of this town, from which he obtained a free
scholarship to the high school,
where he distinguished
himself, and received the highest honour in classics,
mathematics, English, chemistry, natural philosophy, and
drawing, and obtained the Rev. James Yates scholar-
ship of £2OO to graduate at the university of London.
During his career at the University College, London, he'
received three prizes, and eight certificates of merit, for
proficiency in Hebrew, Greek, Latin, mathematics, natural
philosopy, and English history, and finally graduated at
the university in the first division.
THE REV. R. WHISTON.—Our readers will recollect
the long and trying litigation in which this gentleman was
engaged with the authorities of Rochester Cathedral, re-
specting the disposal of the funds under their control.
As master of Rochester School he laboured incessantly
to expose the abuses of the system under which the funds
had been diverted, and baying freely commented on the
conduct of the Dean and Chapter, was by them dismissed
from the office of schoolmaster. Against this he appealed
to the Court of Queen's Bench, but that court having no
jurisdiction, he was compelled to appeal to the Bishop of
Rochester, who bad already expressed an unfavourable
opinion of him. After a lengthened investigation, the
Bishop of Rochester ordered him to be reinstated, but
without awarding to him the arrears of his salary for about
three years, or the heavy costs to which he had been put,
and which are said to amount to about £1,500. In order
that some compensation may be made to him for his
arduous exertions to restore a portion of the Cathedral
revenues to their original object, a committee has been
formed for the purpose of raising a fund, and an appeal
is made to the public for contributions. Some particulars
will be found in our advertising columns,

HOUSE OF LORDS,

The House met at live o'clock

Lord MALMEsBURY said that, having received several com-
munications with respect to questions put in the other house.
regarding diplomatic appointments, he wished to state that the
late government had not had any intention of altering the pre-

Lord ADERDEEN moved that their Lordships do agree with
the Commons in an address to Her Majesty, on the subject of
bribery at the Canterbury election. He severely condemned the
system of bribery and corruption which had existed lately at
elections.

Lord LYNDHURST cautioned the house against making a
precedent which could not be followed out. The report of the
Commons was not in accordance with the act, and did not
warrant their Lordships in agreeing to an address.
After some conversation,in which the Lord Chancellor, Lord
St. Leonard's, Lord' Campbell, Lord Redesdale, the Duke of
Newcastle, Lord Maimesbury, and Lord Beaumont took part,
Lord LYNDHURST eaid that, seeing the feeling of the house,
he would not press hio•amendment.
The motion of Lord Aberdeen was then agreed to.
Adjourned at seven o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The House met at 45 minutes past three o'clock.
Letters were read frorn,the agents of petitions complaining of
undue returns for the comities of Carlow and Leitrim, and:
boroughs of Cashel and Salisbury, stating that it was not in-
tended to proceed with those petitions.
Mr. H. DRUMMOND gave notice that whenever the hon.
member for Meath brought forward his bill for the repeal of
the Ecclesiastical Titles Act, lie should move that the house be
called over.

lUr. WILSON gave notice that on Thursday next he should
state the intentions of Government ‘vith respect to the Depart•
rent of Customs.

In answer to a question from SirJ. PA KINGTON, LordJ.Rus--
S'ELL said, that in the opinion of the law-officers of the crown,
if the Legislature of Canada secularised the reserves, now ap-
propriated to the clergy, they would have no claim upon the-
Consolidated Fund.

The LORD ADVOCATE, in reply. to a question from Mr.
DUNDAs' stated that an inquiry, had been ordered into the
causes of the loss of the Duke of Sutherland steamer, in the
harbour of Aberdeen.

A new writ was ordered for the county of Carlow. in place of
Colonel Bruen, deceased.

On the motion for the third reading of the Canada Clergy
Reserves Bill, Mr. WALPOLE moved. that, as an amendment,
the third reading be put off for six months. The right hon.
gentleman supported this amendment in a speech of con-
siderable length, in the course of which he contended that the
bill would enable the Legislature of Canada to deal with the
investments in this country, under the plea of local legislation.
He further contended that the effect of the measure would be
this: To secure the Roman Catholic endowments from inter-
ference, except by the Imperial Legislatlvre, whilst those of the
Protestant Church might be dealt with by the legislature of
Canada. He also dwelt upon several ottier inconsistencies;
anomalies, which, he said, showed that government had not
duly considered the question.
Mr. IlumE considered that the bill would have a healing
rather than an irritating effect.
Mr. DRUMMOND thought the measure was a bill to affect
Church plunder. It was a mistake to suppose that free trade
could be confined to corn and cotton. It must extend to the
colonies t_ and the house might rest assured, that the passing of
the bill would lead to the separation of every English colony
from the mother country.
Mr. You% SEYMOUR supported the Lilly believing that it
would preserve and consolidate the union between England and
Canada, rather than break it asunder.
Mr. Li uuaLt. was opposed to the bill. Church Lands never
belonged to the Canadian people; and no injustice could be
done to them by reserving lands for their original purpose.
Sir EDWARD DERING supported the bill.
