HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY

Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD began the adjourned debate
by a speech for the repeal of all the duty on corn. He was
resolved to take every constitutional means of agitating the
question out of the house as well as in it. _ _

Mr. WYKEn AM MAnTIN showed by detailed calculations,
that the landholder pays a very much larger contribution than,
the fundhclder to various levies, particularly to the poor's-
rate and to the highway-rate.
Mr. VILLIERS (Sudbury) was understood to deny that the
landholders bear more than their share of public burdens.
Sir C. BURRELL insisted on the superior importance of the
home trade as compared with the foreign. He had his doubts
on the sufficiency of Sir R. Peel's protection, which, how-
ever, under the circumstances connected with it, he meant
to support.
Mr. PowELL urged the necessity of doing something for a
population which would be otherwise ungovernable.
Lord GRANBY expressed his deep sympathy with the ex-
isting distress, and his apprehension that by a repeal of duty
that distress would be increased ; for such a measure would
narrow the home-market, while the increased cheapness of
bread would propably be neutralised by a proportionate re-
duction of wages. Sir R. Peel, so long as he should continue
to keep Britain dependent on her own efforts, would have no-
thing to dread from foreigners.
Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL was much disappointed that the
government measure did so little, especially after so much
time had been taken for deliberation. He had heard nothing
to satisfy him that a fixed duty was not better than a sliding
scale ; and he did not believe that speculation would be
materially checked by the new plan. The observation of Sir
IL Peel, that a fixed duty, if once removed in time of scarcity,
could never be re-imposed, was a stronger argument against
the corn-laws than any advanced by the leaguers, lay or cle-
rical ; for it was an admission of the injustice of thole laws.
Though he should have preferred a fixed duty to a total re-
peal, he preferred a total repeal to the government plan, and

The evils of the existing Corn Laws had beenir?
geratcd; hut Sir R. Peel's proposal had theadvantage of
removing what was most unpopular in their composition
without destroying what was really useful in their practicl
'
operation. Cheap corn would not improve the condition of
the labourer: his state was never better than during the high
prices of the war, when corn was sometimes at 120 s. or even
130 s. a quarter. Even now our agricultural population would
be well off were it not for the influx of poor from Ireland.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 18.
A fair attendance of buyers in the market again to-day,
but not more than 3000 bales have been sold, without any
change in prices. The sales of the week amount only to
19,360 bales, against an import of 37,000, adding 18,000 to
the already heavily accumulated stock. 500 on speculation,
and 200 for export. Prices on a par with last week's quo-
tations.

COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 21. •
The same quiet and inactivity prevades our Cotton market, and
buyers merely supply their immediate wants, without any hopes or
fears that it will improve, at the same time holders display great
firmness, and tho' very willing to effect sales, and in some cases
anxious to do so, yet they are firm at present prices, and withstand
any further reduction : this is a good omen, and gives a tone of
confidence to what little business is done. On Saturday about 3000
bales were sold, and to-day 8500. 500 of them to an exporter.
Market closes steadily.

TAINNEFORD'S PURE FLUID 'MAGNESIA, under
-LP the immediate Sanction of the President of the College
of Physicians, for ACIDITES, HEARTBURN, HEAD-
ACHE, GOUT, BILE, and INDIGESTION, and as a
mild Aperient it is peculiarly adapted for Females and Chil-
dren. .

The high Testimonials received in favour of Mr. DINNE•
FORD'S Preparation have established its superiority on an
irrefragable basis, and placed it at once beyond the reach of
competition.

Extract of a Certificate from Dr. Wilkinson, of lia::., •xhose
familiarity with practical Chemistry so well entitles his

opinion to respect:—
" A Bottle of the Fluid Magnesia of Sir James Murray's,
sent to me for analysation by a Chemist in this town, gave
me seven grains of Magnesia and three of Sulphate of Soda
to the ounce, whilst yours yielded SEVENTEEN GRAINS OP
Pony: MAGNESIA to the ounce. I conscientiously bear tes-
timony to the correctness of the above results.
(Signed) " C. H. WILKINSON, M.D.

" Dated October 23, 1840."
This conclusive testimony is further corroborated by the
Most eminent Members in every branch of the Medical Pro-

fession.
The ACIDULATED LEMON SYRUP, usually sold
with the Solution, makes the most delightful of Saline
Draughts, and materially increases the aperient quality. Pre-
pared by DINNEFORD, Chemist to her Majesty the Queen
Dowager, 172, New Bond-street, and sold by every respect-
able Chemist.
CAUTION.—Be careful to ask for Dinneford's Pure Fluid
Magnesia, to avoid the substitution of the impure Irish pre-
parations, which are imported in leaden and other deleterious
metallic vessels; their impurity may be readily detected by
the taste, and is even obvious to the sight. To be procured
f every respectable Chemist.

STATE OF TRADE, MANUFACTURES &c

The state of the market for our raw materials continues
very languid, and shows, as yet, little tendency towards im-
provement. The demand for cotton during the week has
been moderate, and a trifling decline in some qualities must
be noticed. Considerable firmness is, however, displayed by
holders, who do not seem inclined to be moved by the re-
presentations from the manufacturing districts. On Satur-
day the market was firmer than at the commencement of the
week, with 3000 bales sold, and closed steadily yesterday
with 3500 sold, 500 of which were for export. The sales' of
the week, up to Friday, were 19,630 bales.
The demand for manufactured goods in Manchester has
been very flat ; but prices from the small amount of business
done, cannot be said to have altered sensibly. The great ma-
jority by which the motion of Sir Robert Peel was carried
appears to have damped the spirits of those who expected re-
lief from a large reduction in the duty upon foreign corn.
These parties look, nevertheless, with considerable interest to
the result of Mr. Villiers's amendment, and will, probably,
be influenced by the hopes which the number of the minority
in its favour may seem to justify, in the extent to which they
settle themselves down to serious business. The same dul-
ness pervades the Yorkshire markets, with the exception of
Leeds, in which the measure of Sir Robert Peel is at length
beginning to be viewed with more composure, and a better
business has been done.

VOTES OF THE LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE

MEMBERS,
On Lord John Russell's amendment,—" That this house,
considering the evils which have been caused by the pre-
sent corn-laws, and especially by the fluctuations of the
graduated or sliding scale, is not prepared to adopt the
measure of her Majesty's government, which is founded
upon the same principles, and is likely to be attended by
similar results."—For the sliding scale 349, against it 226;
majority 123

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, FEB. 21

We have had rather a better supply of things at—this day's
market, and prices remain unaltered. Prime Beef aid to 61d;
middling sid to 6d ; prime W ethers 7d to 74d ; middling 6d to 60,
sinking the offal. Head of Cattle at market, Beasts 976; Sheep
3105.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 18.
There was no fresh supply of English Wheat at market this morn-
ing, and prices remain nominally as on Monday. Free foreign and
bonded were not much enquired after, but the same rates are de-
manded. Barley and Peas are not altered in value. New Beans
are lower, and Oats are a dull sale. The demand for Clover seed
is increased, but it is readily met by the sellers, without any advance
being realised, Arrivals this Week.—English, Wheat, 2,430 qrs;
Barley, 8,110 qrs ; Oats, 1,650 qrs ; Flour, 2,960 sacks. Irish Oats,
6,120 qrs. Foreign, Wheat, 26,780 qrs.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 18.
Upon Foreign Barley the duty is raised to 19s. 10d., on
Rye to 12s. 6d., on Pease to 18s. 3d. per quarter, remaining
in all other respects precisely the same as last week.
Except a few Oats and a moderate quantity of Oatmeal,
we have had scarcely anything into this port from Ireland
since Tuesday, and none worth naming Coastwise. During
the same period the arrivals of Foreign Grain have been
wholly confined to 12,410 qrs. of Wheat from the south of
Europe, having no other produce whatever fresh in from
abroad.

Since our first report this week, and up to this date
business in any free article of the trade appeared to be lite-
rally suspended ; and the only sale reported in bond, during
that time, included merely about 1900 qrs. of Egyptian
Beans, at 17s. per qr.
At this day's market, likewise, unaccountable dulness per-
vaded every branch of the corn trade, and rendered priees
of all sorts of grain scarcely more than nominal.—Of Wheat,
however, the few retail sales effected were at a decline of 2d
to 3d per 701b5., and Oats might have been purchased full ld
per_4slbs below the rates last noted. _ _

Oatmeal, in the absence of country buyers, receded Gd.
per 2401b5. Flour was taken off very sparingly, and although
prime brands, duty paid, are not plentiful, there was a dis-
position to sell on rather lower terms.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, FEB, 18

We had, for this day's market, a good supply of Barley, but a
moderate one of other articles. The finest samples of new and
old Wheat sold slowly at a reduction of is per quarter, while all
other sorts were almost unsaleable, though offered at 2s per ittarter
under the rates of last week. Our millers generally complain of
bad trade for Flour, and are very adverse to get into stock. Fine
malting Barley nearly maintains its value, but inferior qualities
were again Is per quarter lower. Beans were is per quarter and
Oats 4d to id per stone cheaper. Shellings dull, but prices remain
without variation.

LONDON AND CROYDON RAILWAY

We understand that at the approaching meeting of the
London and Croydon Railway, it will be found necessary to
devise means for raising further capital—a necessity which
bas been caused principally by the recent very expensive
slips near New Cross. The line, we are happy to state, is
now clear.

A steeple-chase took place at Romford, on Thursday last,
on which occasion the Eastern Counties Railway was called
into requisition in a somewhat novel manner. A special
train was provided to convey the elite of the sporting world
to witness the exhibition, which we understand was on a
very splendid scale. When the horses started from Rom-
ford, the train went off at the same moment, keepiug parallel
with them the whole distance (two miles out and two miles
in), thus affording an opportunity never before presented of
witnessing a steeple-chase throughout.

The Railway Times of Saturday last has the following
observations, with reference to Mr. Gladstone's railway bill:
—lf railway legislation is to be entered upon at all—and for
many reasons it cannot, we fear, be avoided—it would be
difficult to frame a measure more innoxious than this bill of
Mr. Gladstone's. In no respect will it interfere with the
rights or privileges of the Companies, While on several not
unimportant points it will afford them material assistance in
the efficient management of their several undertakings. A
brief glance at a few of its leading provisions will, we think,
bear out this assertion.
