CORN EXCHANGE.

TUESDAY,
,Two .O'CLOCK.
To-day we have had a steady, but not a brisk Market. A
moderate business was done in Wheats at fully the prices of
this day se'nnight, chiefly in the better descriptions of Red
Irish, at 7s. 3d. to 7s. 6d.; in Red Cala,da, at Ss.; and in White
Canada, at 9s. Oats were in limited request, and barely sup-
ported former rates; and Oatmeal had rather a heavy sale, at
21'. 91. to 225. 3d. for the best kinds. Irish flour went off more
freely at a small decline. Some New Irish Oats were disposed
of at 2s. Ild. to 35.; and New Oatmeal at 275. There was no
speculative business reported.

HOUSE DUtIES.

On the motion that the house should resolve into a Com-
mittee of Supply.
Mr. Hi.NIE moved that the house resolve itself into a Com-
mittee of the whdle House, to consider the assessed taxes, with
a view to repeal the whole inhabited house duty.
Col. EVA NS seconded the motion.
Mr. Alderman Winn), in support of the motion, adverted
to the extreme inequality with which the tax was imposed, and
said that as a consequence of it, the City Companies were now
letting houses at two-thirds less rent thn was paid for them
ten years ago.
Mr. HOME wished to know from the Noble Lord whether he
was to understand him as admitting the grievous and vexatious
nature of this tax, and that it was his intention in the next
session to bring forward a measure for its abolition ? In that
case lie (Mr. Hume) would not feel himself justified in press-
in" motion.
Ihe CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER intimated his assent,
and the motion was withdrawn.

The house then resolved itself into a committee of supply.
Mr. RICE moved that a sum of 1.:410,000 be granted to his
Majesty for civil contingencies for the year ending March, 1834.

Mr II usiE had understood that £140,000 was to cover all
diplomatic charges, whereas they were 1:103,000 exclusive of
pensions.
Mr. S. RICE said that reductions had been made. Persons
sent upon special missions received no salary.

LONDON SCAVAGE BILL,

Mr. P. THOMSON moved that the House resolve itself into
committee on this bill.
After some discussion the bill was referred to a select com-
mittee.

The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at a quarter to Three o'clock.

HOUSE OF LORDS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 8.
On the motion of the Earl of Rosstyn, a conference was held
with the House of Commons on the subject of an amendment
made by the Lords in the " Law Amendment Bill." To these
amendments the Commons agreed.

EAST INDIA BILL.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved the order of the day for
receiving the report of the abov:, till.
The Duke of WELLINGTON was of opinion that, as some fur-
ther amendments had been made in the bill, time should be
given to the Courts of Directors and Proprietors for their con-
sideration. In the resolution of the Court of Directors of the
7th of June last, which was subsequently approved of by the
proprietors, the company claimed the right of being made ac
quainted with every portion of any measure that might be intro-
duced, before they consented to abandon, or place in abeyance,
their commercial charter. When the bill was in another place,
the company wished to be heard by counsel against parts of it,
but their prayer was refused, on the ground that all the provi-
sions of the 'bill had been sufficiently discussed. That argu-
ment, however, could not apply in this case, because they could
not be acquainted with the amendments which had been made
in then lordships house. Now, in order that the company
should haie an opportunity of considering the whole measure
before it finally passed, he thought that it would be proper to
postpone the receiving of the report until to-morrow, and the
third reading could be fixed for an early day next week.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said he would acquiesce in the
proposition of the noble duke. The report might now be re-
ceived In° forma and as the amendments were unimportant,
and did not at all affect the principle of the bill, he hoped the
delay would not extend beyond two or three days.
The Earl of ABERDEEN was anxious that an opportunity
should be given for discussing the merits of the
_petition which
he had presented from certain proprietors of Carnatie stock,
who prayed to be heard at their lordships' bar against those
parts' of the bill which affected their interest. The noble lord
(Auckland) had stated that ministers wished to be allowed two
or three days, in order that they might inquire whether it was
necessary, with reference to the interests of those petitioners, to
make any alterations in the bill. Now, if no such alterations
were made, he should reserve to himself the right of moving for
the introduction of a clause to meet what appeared to him to be
the justice of the case.
The report was then received pro
.forma, and ordered to be
taken into further consideration to-morrow.—Adjourned.

HOUSE OF LORDS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7.
The Earl of KINNOUL presented a petition trove the Lord
Provost, and other inhabitants of Perth, in favour of the Scotch
Burghs Bill, as amended, and praying their lordships to pass it
into a law.

THE LAW AMENDMENT BILL,

The LORD CHANCELLOR wished to draw the attention oftheir
lordships to the Bill for the Further Amendment of the Law,
and the Administration of Justice in England and Wales,
which had been returned from the other house with certain
amendments. He moved that the amendments be agreed to,
excepting that which related to Good Friday, and that a con-
ference be held with the commons upon it.
The amendments of the (louse of Commons to the Privy
Council Bill were agreed to.

REFORM IN THE CHURCH.
The Bishop of LONDON said he had two important petitions
to present in favour of Church Reform. One of them prayed
that there might be a commutatic:i of tithes, and that due pro-
vision might be made for the poorer clergy by the augmentation
of small benefices. The desire of the petitioners, and of the
clergy in general, was that means should- be taken to place the
establishment, and the due performance of public worship, on
the most efficient basis. He (the Bishop of London) concurred
in the views of the petitioners. In the present state of things
he thought it right to observe that among the clergy in general
there was a great desire to remove every thing Irons the system
that impaired the efficacy of the Church. Ile petition was
signed by 400 of the clergy, but the name of the diocese was not
heard in the gallery. The right rev. prelate presented a similar
petition from the diocese of Gloucester.
A message from the House of Commons, headed by the Soli-
citor-General, brought up the Notaries' Regulation Bill, the
Assessed Taxes Reduction Bill, and the Sugar Duties Bill.
Sir GEORGE GREY brought up a message requesting their
lordships to permit Viscount Melbourne to attend, and be ex-
amined before the Metropolitan Police Committee.
On the motion of the Earl of SH A FTESBURY permission was
granted to the noble Viscount to attend the committee.
The Duke of WELLINGTON moved that the papers laid on the
table that night by the noble earl (Grey) be printed.—Ordered.

LONDON LATEST NEWS.

Saturday Evening, Half:past Seven o'clock.
The books at Loyd's this afternbon announce the arrival of
the Grecian, Young, and the George and Catherine, Blacklock,
at St. Petershurgh. We regret to state that the cholera is on
the increase here, and several fatal cases have occurred. It is
said to be of increased malignity, even than of last year's, and
considerable alarm prevaiis. It does not appear either that
those precautions which last year tended so much to check this
dreadful disease are to be adopted, a supineness not to be ac-
counted for.

Our money market, so far as respects English securities, has
evinced very great apathy since our last, and the quotation for
the 'account is ssi -69. Consols for money are 86i 89.
It is generally understood thataccounts are in tows announcing
the recapture of St. Mies, and other places in its vicinity, by
the troops of Don Miguel. This caused a decline in the scrip
and bonds of 1 per cent. yesterday, and, although nothing
confirmatory has reached us yet, the scrip left off heavy at 24.
and the-bon-cis at 891. In the northern bonds the market is
tolerably Jinn, Dutch closing this afternoon at 51i i;
Danish at 711 5, Belgian at 961, and Russian at 1051 61.
Spanish stock has been an object of some speculation, and has
been as high as 24. It closed this afternoon at 231 1. Bra-
zilian bonds, after having been as high as 75, have fallen to
711 72; but we have no news from this quarter. It is still
strongly current in our political circles that an expedition is on
the eve of being sent out to Lisbon, notwithstanding the con-
tradiction put forth by the ministerial press.

MEXICO.

The Mexican packet has brought accounts of the entry into
the capital, on the 3rd of January, of Pedraza as President,
Bustamente as Vice-President, and Santa Anna as the libera-
tor of the republic. The legislature not having thought yoroper
to accede to the terms offered, the three chiefs united their
forces, and, to appearance, have established tranquillity, by
taking the whole power into their own hands. A new ministry
had been appointed, and the Ist of April next had been fixed
for the re-election of President and Vice-President. The regu-
lar communications with the coast have, consequently, been re-
opened. This packet has brought 100,000 dollars on account of
the merchants, and it is expected that much treasure, which has
been accumulating at the different ports during the late troubles,
will now be transmitted to this country.

LIVERPOOL-FRIDAY, FEB. 22.

We beg to call the attention of our readers to a peti-
tion for promoting a better observance of the Sabbath,
which is now lying for signature at the office of this pa-
per and other usual places in the town. Never was thefe
a time when the desecration of the Lord's Day appeared
to be so fearfully on the increase as at the present mo-
ment ; and, unless some effectual method is speedily
adopted by the Legislature for putting an end to such
proceedings, the time is not far distant when, as a nation,
we may have seriously to repent the, dishonour thus done
to the day of God's appointment. The petition very pro-
perly speaks of the desecration, by " all classes," and
well may it do so; for, we believe, there is no grade of so-
ciety which is entitled to exception. A London contem-
porary of Monday last, writing upon this subject, says,
"Yesterday, being the Lord's Day, the Cabinet Minis-
ters assembled for the fifth time in succession for the ' de-
spatch of the secular business of the empire." It is not,
however, to Cabinet Ministers, nor to the metropolis
alone, that the reproach attaches ; in our own community,
and in our own town, the most open violation of the Sab-
bath—a violation which the present laws have not the
poWer to check—takes place upon every succeeding
week. If there be any who are sceptical as to this fact,
we would strongly recommend to their perusal the evi-
dence given by Mr. Rowland, of this town, before the
Committee of the House of Commons, which has been
recently published in a pamphlet. -

B'l4—Your correspondent A Parishioner was rather severe
"upon the Editors of the Albion, they simply remarked "it was
bad taste to kcap the bells ringing until midnight," forgetting
the old adage " Let those laugh who win."
I beg Sir, for the future you will be more careful, and endea-
vour to keep your friends out of danger, for you well know
that, although one of the editors is oblivious, the other is keen
as "Tewksbury mustard." In my opinion, A Parishioner has
been lucky to escape without being called all manner of ill

LONDON LATEST NEWS.

Wednesday Evening, Half-past Seven o'clock.
The money market during the la.st two days has been heavy, and
Consols for the account closed at 87i this afternoon. Exchequer
bills do not support the extreme advance we recently noticed, the
premium being at 48 to 49. India Bonds left off at 33 to 35 premium.
In our Foreign market the chief alteration has been in Greek Bonds
which improved yesterday to 15, and they are this afternoon at 36 to
37. Little variation has occurred in any other stock, but the market
is flat.

Accounts have been received this morning from St. Mary's,. river
Gambia, dated as late as the 25th Nov. The brig-of-war, Brisk, had
arrived there from Ascension. The brig, Eliza, -Sommerville, of Li-
verpool, bound to Bissao, bad gone on shore on the Isle of Bourbon,
within sight of the former place, and was immediately taken pos-
session of by the natives, and had been burned :—the crew had arrived
at St. Marrs.

Adiriceshave been received from Malta to the 15th Jan. The mer-
chants there disapprove of the new Tariff, which they state to he pre-
judicial to the interests of British commerce, the duties on English
goods having been increased.
We learn by the accounts from Paris, that an establishment, similar
to that of Lloyds, to be called the " Lloyd Francais," was about to be
established there. Rooms were to be opened for the subscribers upon
the plan of the English association—a committee of two directors and
nine commissaries, was to preside over the establishment, and to
meet publicly on the 10th and 25th of each month :—the subscription
to he 100 francs annually, payable in advance. A sum of 100 francs
is also to he paid as admission money by all who shall subscribe before
the number of the members shall be 206 ; after which, it would be in-
creased to 200 francs. When 300 members had subscribed, it would
advance to 300 francs, and so
.progressively increase until it reached
500, which would be the maximum sum. Every subscriber was to
hive the privilege of temporarily admitting any Foreigners visiting
the Capitol, such admission to be gratuitous for the five first days,
after which a subscription to be paid in advance of 15 francs for one
month, 25 for two months, and 35 for three months, would be
requ
e ire d.
W learn by the latest accounts from the Isle of Bourbon, that the
crop in the hitherto most productive quarter of the island had only
given a moiety of the expected produce. At St, Louis and St. Pere,
seldom so
,productive, the crop had exceeded the preceding consider-
aNy ; the produce was estimated at G to 7,000,0001b5.

F *REIGN INTELLIGENCE,

FRANCE.

The French Chamber of deputies on Friday last rejected a
motion for reducing the number of bishoprics in France, by a
majority of 169 to 160, on the ground that the proper ecclesi-
astical authority of the Romish Church had not been consulted.
We do not anticipate any such intention to our own Eccle-
siastical authorities when the reduction of half the number of
the Irish sees is brought before the House of Commons.
