year the number Of slayers condemned by these
courts was SO, having on board upwards Of 5000
slaves, and there remained six which had been cap
tured for adjudication. From the beginning OF
April, 1874, to the middle of May, lo45, the squad
ron of cruisers stationed on the western coast Of
Africa captured So sayers 8 Of which had ON board
upwards Of 500 slaves. OF these slavers, one OF
them had been captured and condemned eight times,
one seven times, two SIX times, three hve times
seven -four times, twelve three times eleven twice,
twenty-one once. The stimulus 10 the trade was
found in its immense profits The traders did not
hesitate to incur any risk expense to attain their
object The committee concluded that there was
reasonable hope that the evil could be overcome
by an armed force, and urged that heneeforth the
energies both or g0Serument and the country should
be directed to the universal extrpaton OF slavery
by means which were of purely moral and pacific
character. Slavery offered the greatest obstacle to
the progress of Divine truth The report concluded
by drawing attention to two points, namely, the
abolition Of slavery in Tuns during the past year,
and the emancipation Of the slaves which was to
take place in few days IN Surinam Several res
olutions were adopted and strong opinions express
ed by the speakers on the subject Of tho money re-
ceived by the Free Church Of Scotland from the
slave States Of America.
FEARFUL COLLISION AT LpERPooL.-The Mer-
sey, on the night of Monday last, was the scene Of
a melancholy accident. of the magazines, the
Rambler steamer, from Sligo, with $50 passengers,
and great number OF cattle on board, came in col
lision with the Sea Nymph, leaving Liverpool for
Newry. The result the loss Of twent y-one
lives, and the wounding Of score more. Some Of
the Rambler's passengers were killed on the spot
and others were drowned in the stream. The YES
sci was subsequently run on shore. The night was
not dark. The affair is undergoing investigation.

Triumph of The Corn bill.

Last week the public pulse was at low ebb rela-
tive to the bill. Political croakers prognoscated its
defeat and business, which has been sadly impeded
by the uncertainty Of the future even more dull
than usual but the result of the meeting at Lands
downe House on Saturday, where the whig peers
met and discussed their differences on the subject,
ended in resolution TO support in its integrity the
measure of the government.
From that moment all apprehensIons vanished.
The bill is now perfectly safe, and will probably be
the law of the land before another month has
elapsed. The committee is fixed for the llth of
June.
On Monday, May the 18th, the corn bill was
brought from the lower to the upper house. and de-
Iiveed at their lordships bar by Mr.. Green, the
chairman of the committee accompanied by Mr..
Golden, Mr.. Bright, and number of others who
have ever been conspicuous in their hostility TO the
bread tax The Duke Of Wellington Immediately
moved the first reading, which usually takes place
without discussion; hut overlapping legislative ETH
uuette the Duke of Richmond ROSE and made an.
other Of those furious personal attacks Sir Robert
Peel to which the premier has been so much accus-
toned of late from his quondam friends.
On the same night, in the House Of Commons, the
customs bill underwent discussion on the bringing
nm of the report when Lord George Bentnck made
fruess attempt to strange il, Or. Bowring bore
testimony from his private correspondence, to the
favor with which that measure and the corn bill were
received in the United States and Canada.
On Monday, the 25th, the great battle on the corn
bill commenced in the House Of Lords. The sec.
ond reading was moved by the Earl Of Ripon, who
like his colleagues, can lay claim to no consistency
on the subject The two crack speeches Of the night
were those Of Lords Stanley and Brougham.
