LONDON, July 27.-The House of Com
the government bills precedence tomorrow.
This shoves Plimsoirs bill over.
In the House of Commons this afternoon
Mr.. Disraeli, in reply to Mr.. Dillwyn, re-
fused to give precedence to Mr.. Plimsolls
shipping bill, which, he said, despite its
motives. would only aggravate the evils it
intended to remedy. Besides, it would re-
quire too much time in consideration. The
bill of Sir Charles Adderly, president of the
Board of Trade, would give the government
more rapid and direct action in stopping
ships from sailing.
English Crop Prospects.
The Daily Ne,cs says the partial relapse
in the corn markets yesterday, following
the complete change of weather, indicates a
revival of hopes respecting the harvest
which the persistent rain Of the previous
three weeks seemed wholly to forbid.
The Mark Lane Express of this week says
the average rise in wheat since last week
has been fully four shillipgs here
and in France. Here much grain
has been Frustrated by the heavy wind and
rain. Should the weather continue fine the
crops may not suffer much on the yield.
Whatever may be the result as to quality,
a return to former low rates seems to be
impossible, with the stock so near ex-
haustion, but millers are not likely to pur-
chase freely at high rates while there is a
possibility of an improved prospect.

THE LOST SAILOR.
~ 5. VI. vANsANK, ACE L..

~ ;. NJ. NANSANh, AtE IL,
Twas a stormy night upon the sea,
The waves were running high;
The wind was blowing fierce and loud,
Dark clouds were in the sky.
The binding sleet from out that shroud
Rushed down with eager glce;
And flashing through the blackcncd air,
II melted IN the sea.
\ good ship labored on her way;
Her voyage was nearly through;
But it seemed as II those massive waves
Would all her tolls undo.
A sailor sat at his watch on deck,
But he thought not of the gale;
His thoughts went on to his nearing home,
In a pleasant, sheltered vale
There watched his patient, loving wife,
And sunny children three;
And he longed to hear their prattling talk
As they clambered on his knee.
And then, o'urcomc by those sweet thoughts,
He went up in the shrouds;
Where he from Joking mates was free,
AlOne-sayc with the clouds,
Once more his thoughts he turned toward homt
His wife and children fair;
What wonder that prayer he breathcd,
That soon he might bs there.
But OH Thou who couldst hush the winds
And bid the sea be still,
Ha1st ordered otherwise Tor aim,
By Thine all powerful will.
The sailors mind was so engrosscd
By tender thoughts OF home,
lie needed not the moaning wind,
Or pillows ieecy foam.
Hs hands are held upon the ropes,
But hecdlcssly he hung;
And by the vessel, sudden lurch,
Down headlong he was flung,
He fell unnoticed from the ship,
He sank amidst the roar;
The angry waves closed where lac sank,
And lcapcd high as before.
The slect fell Kissing in the deep,
The blast made ilful din,
The secthing pillows rolled along,
As though it had not been.
The good ship labOrcd on her wdy
Her voyage was nearly through;
But oh. sad tidings did she bear
Children aud wife, to you
No more your gentle loving arms
About his form will twinc;
No NOR, youI hear his occan tale,
Beneath the arbOrcd vine;
No morc you'll see that bcaming face,
That smiles Of love did she'd

when seas give up their dead
