gross deficit on the quarter Is about 4o' Uu,

exhibited the greatest falling oil. ch'ehy ifo" 'le
obstruction Of intercourse, and stagnat'on OF
trade, in consequence of the approach OF cho'era
to various parts of Europe. The Excise Is the
only branch of duty which presents an increase
on the quarter (e56. and the Stamps !he

ing the last three months, affords satisfactory
presumption that the means OF comfort are no"
reviving amongst the great bodV OF the people
part Of the decrease percephbe IN the customs
NAV be ascribed to the non-impOrtaton OF corn
during the last year, and the consequent loss ol

Acknowledgment and Scotland. new cases 2S7'
deaths 90, cured 146, remaining SS6; Total cases
Is, 45s, deaths 5.7l4. The above report was
from the country part Of England aud Scotland -
1t will be seen from the following sketch OF an
interesting debate. which took place in the House
of Commons on the 4th of July. that not single
case occurred in London on that day.
Mr. ]. E. Gordon, iE presenting petition
from parish in the county OF Tyrone, on the
subject of education took occasion to ask II 1t was
the intention of the government to take any meas
ures for reporting the number of cases Of cholera
which were daily occurring in the metropolis?-
The father Of the house Lord Amesbury) had re-.
Gently fallen victim 10 the disease (no, no. and
he had heard from good authority that one gen
tIeman attended as many as 40 cases of cholera
in one day. :,
Mr. G. Lamb saw no necessity for the revival
of the reports, which had formerly issued from
the Council Office, on the subject OF Cholera
The fact was, that the disease had never entirely
ceased in the metropolis except for two or three
DAYS, and there was reason to believe the com
plaint was one of those which must be considered
as likely to return at all times, under peculiar
circumstances. A. to the number OF cases, he
could assure the hon member that they were very
much exaggerated Few or n" cases had terml-
mated fatally, IN consequence of attention to the
admun,tory symptoms; and there was not single
new case reported on that day.
Mr. Hunt took occasion to advert TO the re-
port that there were 10 cases Of choleraE me jail
for the country of Surrey. in Horsemonyer-lane,
and observed that the bread given to the pris"n-
ers "a piece of which he producedj was OF such
an unwholesome quality that 1t must be consld'
cred one Of the principal causes OF the disease.
Mr. G Lamb regretted that the hon. member
had not mentioned the subject when the members
connected with the county OF Surrey were III the
house. They. as visiting magistrates, must be
better acquainted with the state Of the jail than
he was; but he could assure the hon member, that
the moment the bread was complained of, its quail.
ity had been improved, and there was no case OF
cholera in the prison.
Mr. H. Buwer wished to know it the cholera
still prevailed to so fatal an extent in Coldba'h
FEELS House Of Correction?
Mr. Lamb said. the cholera had entirely ceased
in that prison. There were now no cases OF dis
ease. and the greatest attention was paid to the
die OF prisoners IN order to guard against ITS re-
currence.
The Liverpool Chronicle of the 7th Jnly, says:
We regret to state that we cannot yet report any
decrease in the humber of cases Of Cholera In
Liverpool.
