LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 28.

Although upon a change of wind we have several Grain
vessels in since Friday, the arrivals of the week are not
large, having little more than a moderate supply of
Wheat, Malt, and Flour, coastwise and from Ireland;
and except 10,972 barrels of States Flour, the imports
from abrcad are inconsiderable.
At this day's market Wheats have met a moderate re-
tail demand for consumption at the currency of this day
week, and free Flour has steadily maintained its late value,
With rather more business doing.
Indian Corn continues in good request, few parcels of
fine quality offering, and we raise our quotations Is., per
quarter above those of Tuesday last.
In Beans, Pease, and Barley, little doing, and prices
unvaried. The same remark applies to Oats and Oat-
meal, for either of which we had scarcely any country
demand to-day.
No transactions are practicable in Wheat or Flour
under lock, except at prices for the latter, which i.olders,
even under the present depression, will not listen to.

CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 1

The only change in the duties this week is an advance on Fo-
eign Nye to (is. 6d. per quarter.
A few vessels with wh at from Ireland haye appeared during
the past few nays, but otherwise the arrivals of any article,
either British or Foreign, are very inconsiderable.
So little business has been done in tree stuff between Tuesday
and to-day, as to be scarcely worth comment. but notwithstand-
ing the continued suspense relative to the Corn Bill, there has
been more dispositon to operate in bonded produce, and ccca.
sional transactions in Wheat and Flour have taken place within
the range of Tuesday's quotations.
At our Clrn Exchange to-day, free Wheat of all descripti,ns
met an extremely dull sale,and although fine samples were herd
on the terms last noted, all ordinary qualities were offered with
very little effect at a decline of Id. to 2d. per 701b.—Irish Flour
likewise was much more difficult to sell at late prices; and Ca-
nadian, though less plentiful, merely upheld its previous value.
English Barley, of which there is still little or none here, is
wanted both for malting and seed, and would realize an advance
of is. to 2s. per quarter; grinding parcels at the same time re-
maining unvtried.--Idalt in fair request and steady in value.—
Beans and Pease continued to move slowly at former rates.—
Indian Corn, upon a lively and more gei,eral demand daily, was
the turn dearer.

Oats and Oatmeal, attracting little notice this morning, each
barely supported our last currency.
Wheat and Flour, in bond, beginning to excite the attention of
speculative buyers, several further investments were made in
each, on terms, in some cases, rather exceeding those previously
obtainable.

THEATRE ROYAL, WILLIAMSON SQUARE.

On Friday evening, Miss Helen Faucit concluded a
most successful engagement at this theatre, during the
course of which she has succeeded in earning, by the
chaste and talented portraitures of some of the leading
characters in the English drama, a host of admirers.
Her Pauline Deschappelles, in "The Lady of Lyons."
is a splendid impersonation. conveying the full meaning
of the poet, and occasionally attracting us by those finer
developments of passion or feeling which are lest when
the character is in ordinary hands, and may have been un-
observed in the closet. Her Nina Sjorza was beautifully
and spiritedly played, as was her Julia, in the " Hunch-
back," the character selected for her benefit and final ap-
pearance.
. .

Last night we had a flying visit from Madame Vestris
and Chas. Matthews, and, of course, a full and:fashiona-
ble house. To-night, it will be seen, Mr. Buckstone's
drama of " Green Bushes" is to be introduced; Miami,
her original character, by Mrs. Fitzwilliam.

IMPORTANT LECIURES.-Our advertising columns
announce that, on Thursday, an opening lecture will be
delivered in the Music Hall, by J. D. Dwyer, Esq., of
the Middle Temple, author of the " University of Bohn,
with the College Life of Prince Albert," on the orators
of Great Britain and Ireland. Mr. Dwyer has discharged
for upwards of twenty years some of the most important
duties connected with the parliamentary department of
the London press; and, in the performance of those
duties, it devolved upon him to describe the solemnities
of the three last coronations in Westminsten Abbey.
The first lecture will include Chatham, Sheridan, and
Grattan. By the aid of these lectures, an accurate know-
ledge of the main points of our political history may be
acquired in a manner likely to make an indelible impres-
sion on the mind. The Times says, with reference to the
lectures, " They abound in very interesting anecdote, and
develope, with great felicity of arrangement, the rite and
progress of the historical events to which the speeches
referred. The lectures were welt delivered, the extracts
from speeches were given with the emphasis arrd pauses
of a practised elocutionist, and whilst all theatrical bur-
lesque was avoided, sufficient rhetorical science was dis-
played to shnw that the lecturer was perfectly matter of
his subject."

At our C Exch-ange to-day, free Wheat of all descriptions
met an extremely dull sale,and although fine samples were herd
on the terms last noted, all ordinary qualities were offered with
very little effect at a decline of Id. to 2d. per 701b.—Irish Flour
likewise was much more difficult to sell at late prices; and Ca-
nadian, though less plentiful, merely upheld its previous value.
English Barley, of which there is still little or none here, is
wanted both for malting and seed, and would realize an advance
of Is. to 2s. per quarter; grinding parcels at the same time re.
maining unvaried.—Malt in fair request and steady in value.—
Beaus and Pease continued to move slowly at former rates.—
Indian Corn, upon a lively and more general demand daily, was
the turn dearer.

Oats and Oatmeal, attracting little notice this morning, each
barely supported our last currency.

Wheat and Flour, in bond, beginning to excite the attention of
speculative buyers, several further investments were made in
each, on terms, in some cases, rather exceeding those previously
obtainable.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY

Mr. E. B. yROCHEread a letter from Mr. W. S.
O'Brien, in which he complained that Mr. Estcourt, the
chairman of the committee of selection, had, by with-
holding the correspondence, not stated the case fairly to
the house. While he disputed the right of the house to
proceed against him as it had done, he was prepared to
abide the consequences of the course he had pursued, and
would be no party to any motions which might be made
for his liberation.
The adjourned debate on the Protection of Life
(Ireland) bill was resumed.
In the discussion which ensued, the bill was supported
by Mr. Colquhoun, the Attorney-General, Mr. W. Col-
lett, and Cantain Fitzmaurice, and was opposed by Mr.
Timothy O'Brien, All.. Bellew, Mr. Henry Grattan, Mr.
S. Crawford, Mr. E. B. Roche, and Cat.tain Layard.
Colonel SIBTHORP said he would not oppose the mea-

yet the best Wheats were fetching higher prices :ban last week.

VARIETIES.

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.—PIace several small
pieces of camphor gently in a basin of pure water, and
with a red hot wire ignite them as they float; the lumps
will shoot about the surface in various directions, perform-
ing many comical antics, exhibiting a lively dance of fire-
balls.
PRONUNCIATION OF INDIAN PROPER NAMES.—A
correspondent of the Glasgow Herald says :—At a time
when Indian affairs are exciting no ordinary interest, the
following hints as to the pronunciation of certain names
of places, in and near the seat of war, may be acceptable
to your readers. These observations have been taken
down from the dictation of an officer who has served on
the spot—every reliance may be placed on their accu-
• racy :-1. All names ending in " an" have the accent on
the last syllable, and the "an" is sounded like the Scotch
ah, or nearly aw—thus Voultan is pronounced Alultawn.
The same remark applies to words terminating in "ab"—
thus the river Chenab is sounded Chunawb, with the first
syllable rapidly uttered, and the full weight of the sound
on the " awb." " Punjawb" is another illustration.
2. Compounds of the words Feroze have the accent on
the " oze," not on " poor" or " Ma," as one often hears
it. Ferozepoor must be uttered in three syllables. 3. "I"
has the sound of '`ee"—thus Sikh is pronounced "Seek,"
aot Sheek or Syke.

" It is no good re

neration or

hear of you," said the high priest Eli to his wicked and
profligate cliildren ; " ye do make the Lord's people to
transgress." And for this feeble expostulation against
their iniquity, which partook so little of reprehension
that it amounted almost to encouragement, he, as well as
they, incurred the divine condemnation. Ilia children
were cut off, and his priesthdod was transformed to ano-

Ither, and upon the express ground that " his
themselves vile, and he restrained them not."

Now, we

need not suppose that the Romish priesthood are one
whit more consenting parties to the blood-guiltiness of so

many amongst their people than was Eli to the abomina-
tions of his two sons, who set at nought his indolent recla-
mations, to be persuaded• that for the iniquity which
abounds, they, too, have much to answer

best effects must be produced. Such was the case at the
Cavan meeting of magistrate's and gentry, which was con-
vened when Booth Bell was savagely murdered. Father

Thomas Maguire then spoke likean. honest, as well as an
able man • and if similar convictions were felt, and a si-
milar zeal exhibited by his co-religionists, the distempered
state of the public mind would be corrected, and con-
science would become an auxiliary to law, instead of
being, as it is at present, antagonistic to it. But we ap-

ribbon conspirators ? But have they exerted themselves
strenuously against them ? Have they wielded against
them the censures of the Church ? Have they pro-
nounced against them, and all who consort with them,
the greater or the lesser excommuni cation ? We have
seen no evidence of it. Murder after murder has been
as, perform- perpetrated. Life after life has been taken away by the

hand of the assassin, who remains embosomed in the
community which should feel itself polluted by his pre-
sence; and if not a favoured, at least a protected guest
in many a family by whose aid and contrivance he is ena-
bled to elude the pursuit of justice. And yet nothing is
done to mark the indignant sense which Church authori-
ties should feel for such connivance at flagitious wicked-
ness, beyond some formal condemnation, understood too
frequently by the guilty patties as " a make believe," to
divert from themselves the suspicion which might arise,
that with the atrocities which were planned and perpetra-
ted they were in their hearts well pleased. We under-
take to say, that if one-hundredth part of the zeal and
energy which were employed in the case of Seery in
bringing the laws of the land into contempt, and confer-
ring the halo of martyrdom upon one who was in act and
intention a foul murderer, was used for the purpose of
their vindication, far more healthful would be the state of
opinion, and far more effectual the efforts of the legal
authorities in discountenancing and repressing the san-
guinary atrocities which mark so many of the Romish dis-
tricts of Ireland.—Dublin University Magazine.

CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS LIBt,RTY.

(From the Gloucester Journal.)
The Leeds Intelligencer affords us a somewhat curiostls
illustration of what is meant by "civil and religious
liberty," by those who find it a very easy and convenient
theme for after-dinner eloquence. Our contemporary,
describing a confirmation holden at Woodhouse. by the
Lord Bishop of Ripon, says—" His Lordship's visit was
attended with an especial interest, and will, we doubt not,
be long remembered by many, from the circutnstrance of
his holding a confirmation during the evening service, for
the benefit of some young persons who had nut been al-
lowed to leave their work to attend the confirmation on
Friday afternoon. His lordship's kindness in doiriq so
was deeply felt by the clergy, and was calculated to make
a strong impression on the young persons themselves,
and we hope may not be lost uaou those who threw
hindrances in the way of their makino a solemn religious
profession."
We do not quote this as being by any means extraor-
dinary. " Civil and religious liberty," does not mean
confirmation, or any other rite of that old harlot, the
Church of England. It does not mean " liberty" to
join in her ceremonies, or make a profession of her faith.
It means " libel ty" to abuse and malign her—" liberty"
to erect the meeting-house on her ruins. It is a one-sided
" liberty," and its great advocates have no notion of any
thing so absurd as allowing the children in their factories
and workshops to go to church to be confirmed. That is
not the sort of " liberty" they have expended their breath
upon. If it bad been an Anti-Corn-Law tea-party, or a
nice little scheme for bagging pence to build a dissenting
chapel, there would have been no earthly objection to
sending the children to swell the crowd or the wallet ;
but a confirmation by a bishop!
Turn the tables. Suppose some churchman had refused
permission to the children in his mills to take part in
some ranting jubilee. Would there ever have been an end
to the pious horror which the intolerable bigotry would
have awakened ? We dread to think of the torrent of ex-
ecration with which the whole Church and every Church-
man would have been visited. The Nonconformist would
have choked with indignant wails ; the Patriot would
have groaned in agony of spirit at the villainy and tyran-
nical injustice ; and every pulpit orator in the land would
have sent forth his richest stores of Establishment abuse
at so flagrant an instance of blind bigotry. But there is
no bigotry with these gentry out of the Church of Eng-
land. It would be bigotry worthy almost of flame and
sword for a Churchman to " throw hindrances in the way
of" Dissenters " making a solemn religious profession ;"
but the same thing in a dissenter is-- " civil and religi-
ous liberty."
