a carpenter by trade. These questions he answered in a firm
voice, and apparently without excitement; but, on being
asked if his father was not a scene-shifter at Covent-garden
Theatre, he answered in somewhat an indignant tone, " scene-
shifter ! no, he's stage carpenter." The remainder of his
answers to the necessary questions were all firmly given ; but
when subsequently asked if he had the money wherewith to
purchase food, in rather a despairing tone he answered that
he had not. Like all other prisoners, he was, on his arrival,
stripped naked, and put in a bath, on which he made no
complaint.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.
(From the Herald of Yesterday.)
The following particulars have been obtained since yes-
terday:—
The prisoner had, it appears, for some weeks prior to this
event, formed the idea of entering into business, and the
snuff, cigar, and tobacco line was considered by him to be
the most eligible for that purpose. Accordingly, he waited
upon Mr. Charles Johns, of No. 13, Hanover-street, Long-
acre, a gentleman whose business principally consists in fur-
nishing and fitting up chemists' and tobacconists' shops, and
requested to know for what sum he would supply him with
such articles as were required for carrying on the latter bu-
siness. Mr. Johns was rather struck with the juvenile ap-
pearance of Francis, not looking more than 19 or 20 years of
age ; but as young men of a similar age are frequently placed
in small shops in this line by their friends, he made no re-
mark upon the subject. Mr. Johns, in answer to Francis,
said the cost of the fittings would entirely depend upon the
size of the shop, and could be only ascertained by an inspec-
tion of the premises. Francis then gave as the place, " No.
63, Great Mortimer-street," and a messenger was despatched
from Mr. Johns to make the neceesary inquiries, and on his
return an agreement for the supply of the articles was drawn
up, with the conditions of payment, which was signed by
Francis, and of which the following is a copy :
" Specification of sundry fittings, &c., for Mr. Francis,
63, Mortimer-street, from C- Johns, 13, Hanover-street,
Long-acre. (The articles and fittings ate here enumerated.)
" 1 hereby agree to pay the sum of for the above-
mentioned work, pounds to be paid on the delivery of
the goods, and the residue on completion of the work.
" JOHN FRANCIS.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET. JUNE 1.
During the present week, &wing to the subdued tone of the Lon-
don and Liverpool markets, we have had less briskness in the
Wheat trade, but holders are generally demanding fully last week's
prices, which have been realized on fine samples of Red arid White
Wheat, both English and foreign. In malting Barley little passing,
the season being so far advanced that many malsters have ceased
buying. Irish Oats are still neglected, though English have become
less plentiful. Beans support previous rates.

COTTON MARKET, APRIL 20

Some little anxiety was felt as to -whether the operations in the
Manchester market yesterday would follow the Increased activity
and small advance which took place in our Cotton market last
week. The result has been somewhat doubtful, this caused a tem-
porary check to the speculative inquiry, and we have consequently
appeared tamer and quieter to-day, nevertheless a fair extent of
business has been done, amounting to 5500 bales, 2000 of which
have been done by one house, entirely for the trade. As regards
prices, the market is firm, and many parcels were taken at prices
previously unattainable.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, APRIL 20.
During the present week, owing to the dulness in Mark Lane,
and decline in Liverpool, our millers have been shy purchasers of
Wheat, but holders being indisposed to accede to any reduction in
price, little has changed hands, and without variation in value.
Malting Barley is scarce, and obtains, in limited parcels, an advance
of is per quarter: grinding, full as dear. We had some enquiry f)r
Oats, without leading to business; former rates are, however,
maintained. Beans, a better sale, at rather more money.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY

The Lords' amendments to the Exchequer Bills Fraud Bill
were agreed to. The house then went into col:wince on the
Licensed Lunatic Asylums Bill, and on the first clause being
proposed, appointing barrister commissioners as examiners
of those asylums,
Mr. WAKLEY said that barristers were not so competent
for such a duty as this—were not so capable of judging of
insanity—as medical men would necessarily be; and he
therefore moved as an amendment, that the words " medical
commissioners " be inserted in the room of the words " bar-
-:-ioners." If the noble lord would consent that
„ommissioners should act together, he would then have
J objection that only one of the commissioners should be a
medical man.
Lord G. SOMERSET said the object of the commissioners
was to see that the provisions of the law should he carried
out ; and any gentleman of ordinary common
,sense would
be as competent to this as a medical tan. He was of opi-

rister comet

however, his selection has been one of personal !avow
on the part of the majority of the commissioners. No
public competition has been invited; and if personal
claims alone are to decide such appointments, surely,
when the power rests thus in Conservatives to reward
devotion and services to the Conservative cause, some
gentleman might have been found who had some ser-
vices in behalf of that cause to plead for him. Upon
every ground we are of opinion that, in the conferring
of such an appointment, every publicity—every oppor-
tunity of examining comparative fitness and desert—
ought to be afforded. We dislike every description of
favouritism in matters where the public interest is con-
cerned. And even where an appointment, as we ima-
gine this to be, is strictly within the power of Conser-
vatives to influence, it is perfectly suicidal policy, not
to mention its ingratitude, if the claims of old and tried
friends are wantonly overlooked.

Such a policy—we would impress this fact upon the
body to which we belong—must, sooner or later, act
with seriously prejudicial effect upon Conservative in-
terests. We think we can plainly discern, in the case
under our notice, evidence of that sensitive dread of
the imputation of illiberality and favouritism from Ra-
dical lips which has on several recent occasions driven
members of the Conservative party to incur the just
imputation from their own friends of having rushed
into the opposite extreme and truckled for favour to
their opponents. The praise of disinterestedness so
lavishly conferred upon them by those who, in their
secret souls, laugh at them for their weakness, may be
pleasing enough to such conservatives ; but the direct
tendency of the course by which it is earned must be
to disgust every true supporter of Conservative inte-
rests, when to have toiled through good report and
evil in their behalf is, of itself, a virtual exclusion from
every favour which, in its day of prosperity, Conser-
vatism has to bestow. This system must be amended.

COTTON MARKET, APRIL 21

In the early part of the day our Cotton market appeared very
quiet and rather tame, all speculative enquiry having ceased, and
the trade disposed to fight shy of the late advance. The day's
business was only estimated at 3.000 to 3.500 bales, when at the
close of change, to the surprise of all parties a speculator sprung
up, and bought within a fraction of 2,000 bales in one hand (at
about 5d per lb,) making in all about 5,500 more, say 6,000 bales.

FRAUDS OF THE MANUFACTURERS

On Tuesday evening Mr. Ferrand brought before the House
of Commons his promised motion for the appointment of a
committee to enquire into the fraudulent practices carried on
by the manufacturers of this country, and the extent to which
the system of paying wages in goods was pursued. We have
not space to give entire the speech of the hon. member, or
the documentary evidence produced in support of his pro-
position; but we give a few extracts, more, however, for the
information of the public than from a hope that much good
can be derived from any parliamentary interference to put
down the frauds which they describe. And, first, we shall
notice an extract from a letter, addressed to Mr. Ferrand,
describing the process of

HOUSE OF COMMONS—TuEsDAY,

Lord STANLEY entered into a statement, in reply, Jo a ques-
tion from Mr. P. Stewart, of the demand for labour in Canada
and our Australian colonies respectively, and the degree in
which the demand was met by voluntary emigration.

Sir R. PEEL, in reply to a question from Dr. Bowring,
complained of being called upon to answer questions re-
specting foreign states ; but, as the question had been asked,
he would say that it was the intention of the Turkish Govern-
ment to remove Omar Pacha from the government of Syria.

The SPEAKER having called attention to a notice given by
Mr. R. Wason, censuring the conduct of the majority of the
Ipswich election committee, which was decidedly unparlia-
mentary, .

Mr. PAKINGTON. who is chairman of the committee, re-
gretted that he was prevented by the forms of the house from
indignantly repelling the accusation.
Mr, RENNIE disavowed any participation i❑ the course
adopted by his hon. colleague.
The motion was then passed over as informal.
Mr. FERRAND then moved for a select committee to in-
quire into the existenceof frauds in the various manufactures
of the United Kingdom, and further resolutions to the effect
that the house would protect labouring men who might be
called upon to give evidence before the committee. The
hon. member contended that it was by their own frauds that
the manufacturers of this country lost the superiority which
they once possessed in all the markets of the world. He con-
demned the truck system and the cruelties practised upon the
working classes by their employers, most of whom were
corn-law repealers. The evidence of several honest manu-
facturers before a committee of the house would prove that
they were unable to contend against the fraudulent practises
of their rivals, and they must either give up business or be-
take themselves to the same dishonest practises. In the
name of Him who said the labourer was worthy of his hire,
he called upon the house to grant the select committee for

nion that barristers were better calculated to carry out the
various duties
_placed on the:ontorotesionera than medical

class of medical men to undertake these duties.
Mr. PAKINGTON was much afraid that if the bill passed in
its present shape, no medical man of respectability would
consent to be at the head of such an asylum.
Mr. MILES hoped the present measure would be but the
precursor of a more general measure on the subject.
Mr. WAKLEY suggested that neither the words " barris-
ter" nor " medical' might appear in the clause, in which case
the responsibility would be thrown on the lord chancellor.
After a few observations from Mr. HENLEY,
Mr. HARDY stated that he was once so deceived by a pa-
tient in a lunatic asylum, that if he could, he would have
ordered his instant discharge. Upon that occasion he had,
by mistake, been himself locked up in the lunatic ward.
From his experience on that occasion, he was in favour of
having a medical commissioner in preference to a barrister.
Mr. WAKLEY so far altered his amendment as to move
that the words " each of the barristers" should be omitted.
On a division, Mr. Wakley's amendment was carried by a
majority of 22 to 19.

Lord G. SOMEItSET stated that the whole of the machinery
of the bill was embarrassed by the carrying of the amend-
ment. He was completely in the dark as to what the house
desired, and, not knowing how to meet its wishes, was will-
ing to give up the bill to Mr. Wakley.

After a shOrt conversation, the chairman reported progress,
and asked leave to sit again that day fortnight.
The house then resolved itself into committee upon the
copyright bill.

On the proposition of the clause prohibiting extracts from
books unless taken bond fide for the purposes of criticism,
a discussion took place, it being contended by Mr. Wakley,
Mr. Aglionby, and other hon. members, that the clause was
too restrictive in its character, and would prevent extracts
by compilers, who for school or other books might wish to
avail themselves of them.

Several verbal amendments were made in the clause, after
which the committee divided upon the question whether it
should stand part of the bill.
The clause was carried by:a majority of 36 to 11.
The remaining clauses were agreed to, with some amend-
ments, after which the house resumed, and the report was
ordered to be received on Thursday-

The Public-houses Bill was, on the motion of Captain
Rous, read a second time.
Sin V. BLAKE moved the second reading of the Barristers
(Ireland) Bill, the object of which was to supersede the ne-
cessity of serving terms in the English inns of court, for the
purpose of being called to the Irish bar.
Mr. J. D. JACKSON moved the second reading of the bill
that day six months. He thought it was of material impor-
tance that Irish gentlemen should be obliged to spend some
time in London before being called to the Irish bar.
After a few words from Mr. J. O'CONNELL the second
reading of the bill was negatived without a division.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
the house adjourned.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1842-04-22

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 19

A change of wind having brought in many vessels which
had been previously detained off the port, we have to note
since this day week a fair quantity of Barley and Malt coast-
wise; a considerable increase in the supply of Oats, with a
moderate arrival of Oatmeal, from Ireland ; and from abroad
a liberal accession of Wheat, amounting to nearly 15,000 qrs.,
chiefly from France and the Mediterranean, besides 1360 qrs.
from Calcutta.

At the opening of this day's market, good English, Irish,
and foreign free Wheats were held with rather more firm-
ness ; but the millers remaining for the most part inactive,
very moderate sales only were practicable, and the trade
closed at a decline of ld. to 2d. per 701bs. from the rates of
this day se'nnight.
Here and in the country markets towards the end of last
week, about 2500 qrs. of Ancona Wheat, in bond, were dis-
posed of at 7s. ; and since, 1500 qrs. of Polish Odessa at 7s.
to 75. ld., with a parcel of good States Wheat at 7s. 6d. per
701b5., have changed hands here ; exclusive of 1500 barrels
Western Canal Flour, sold to-day at 28s. per barrel.
In any kind of free Flour this morning, the transactions
were limited on the terms of last week.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, APRIL 20,

During the present week, owing to the dulness in Mark Lane.
and decline in Liverpool, our millers have been shy purchasers of
Wheat, but holders being indisposed to accede to any reduction in
price, little has changed hands, and without variation in value.
Malting Barley is scarce, and obtains, in limited parcels, an advance
of Is per quarter : grinding, full as dear. We had some enquiry for
Oats, without leading to business ; former rates are, however,
maintained. Beans, a better sale, at rather more money.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. APRIL 18.
The supplies throughout the last week were only moderate of
every description of Grain, both English and foreign, and the
supply of Flour was inconsiderable. To this morning's market the
arrival of samples is short, and finest descriptions of Wheat met a
ready sale on the terms of this day week ; other descriptions with.
out alteration. Barley fully maintains last Monday's prices. Fine
samples of Oats are in good demand, but low qualities are difficult
to quit. Beans of all sorts are Is dearer. White and Gray Peas
are a better sale, at the last week's prices. Flour in steady de-
mand. Seeds without variation in prices, but more inquired aster.
WEDNESDAY, April 20.
The business has not been extensive this morning, and the value
of every article is unaltered from the price of last market day.
Some parties were in expectation of a speculative movement, in
consequence of the supposed certainty respecting the passing of
the Corn Bill through the House of Lords ; but there is no ap.
pearance of any increased demand for English or bonded Wheat.

LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKET,
April 21.

There is a fair extent of Potatoes to hand this week—during
which, there has been an extensive business doing both to our
retail town trade, and for reshipment into the interior, although
the full currency of our last quotations has not been maintained.
Manx, Scotch, and Irish Cups 2s to 2s 2d; Pink Eyes Is led
to 2s; Gurnsey and Jersey Blues is gd to 2s per gOlbs.
We continue to have a good demand for all descriptions of local
farm produce.

for export.
