PARLIAMENT.—In the HOUSE OF LORDS, on Monday evening, on the motion of Lord Campbell, the Law of Libel Bill was read a second time with general approbation, and ordered to be committed on Monday.—The Bishop of London moved the third reading of the Church Endowment Bill, and, after some observations from Lord Cottenham, Lord Campbell, the Lord Chancellor, and Lord Brougham, the mo. lion was agreed to on an understanding that some additional clauses were to be taken into consideration. Their Lord- ships adjourned at half-past seven. On Tuesday evening, the business consisted in passing Lord Brougham's Slave Trade Suppression bill through Committee; adding an additional clause to the Church En- dowment bill, and passing it; and in carrying the Scotch Church bill through Committee, which was reported with amendments. In the HOUSE OF COMMONS on Monday evening, Capt. Bernal began the adjourned debate on the alleged grievances of Ireland, and recommended the abolition of the office of Lord Lieutenant, and to provide for the Roman Catholic Clergy.—He was followed by several Hon. Members, and the debate was again adjourned On Tuesday evening, the Honse was occupied from a qnar. ter to five until nearly three o'clock with the adjourned de. bate on Irish grievances. From the number of members on both sides of the honse who presented themselves to spe-ok, and have not yet been heard, the debate threatens to occupy the remainder of the week. The speaker last night were Mr. Morgan John 1/Conn ell, the Hon. Mr. Smythe (Canter- bury), who spoke against the Tory policy he usually sup- ports; Mr. Hawes, Mr. Colquhoun, Mr. Sharman Crawford, JJlr. Bateson, Mr. Ross, Mr. Monckton Milnes, Mr. Roebuck, Sir R. Peel, and Lord J. Russell, after whose speech the de. ¡ bate was again adjourned, Mr. Sergeant Murphy having pos- session of the honse. The attendance of annuitants at the Bank of England to-day is very numerous.—The Funds are firmer to-day although, as yet, the re-investment of any portion of the dividends has not commenced. The fact is, however, that the wealthier annuitants seldom receive their in- terest immediately when due. Consols for immediate transfer have been steady at 93-J- to 94, and for Account at 93i to 94. Exchequer Bills have realized 60s. to 62s. premium the New Three-and-a- Half per Cents.. 100f to f; the Reduced, 10q; and the Three per Cents., 94t to t. Bank Stock for Account is 180; and South Sea Old Annuities realise 93t. It is gratifying to be enabled to state that her Ma- jesty, who has lately been suffering from the effects of influenza, induced by a slight cold, is now perfectly con- valescent. His Royal Highness Prince Albert, who was also labouring under the same prevailing epidemy, is likewise entirely recovered. The King of Hanover has expressed his intention, through Lord Robert Grosvenor, of making a donation of 300/. tuwards the expenses of the new building of the Royal Free Hospital, in Gray's Inn-road, for the des- titute sick and diseased. The Sun of yesterday says," A large proportion of the provincial papers received this morning give leaders on the state of the Ministry. The recent article in the Times is quoted either wholly or in part by most of the papers of liberal politics; and this severe attack, joined with the general want of cordial support by the Metropolitan Press, and the rumoured divisions in the Cabinet has strengthened the impression that the present Government is tottering. It is evident from the tone of the public Journals that an immediate break up would not take the country by surprise. BEAI.ES' ROTARY STEAM-ENGINF..—Much interest is now excited in the scientific world by this simple bnt effec- tual application of the powers of steam to obtain circular motion at once from the axis of the engine, thus diminishing fiiction to the least possible amount. Numbers of gentlemen connected with machinery, and the steam-engine, are daily paying Messrs. B. a visit, at their works, East Greenwich, and come away satisfied of the immense superiority of this over the piston engine. We expect we shall be in a position, in a few weeks, to give some interesting statistical mstter, from accurate data, on the performances of this description of engine, both in propelling vessels and for statiouary pur- poses. The work pet formed in Messrs. Beales' engineering works by one small engineis alone prodigious.

IMPOKTATIOM OF TOBACCO.—Among the recent im- ports at Swansea, is one of 571 hales of tobacco from SI. Jago de Cuba,in the Spanish ship Trusmerano, Pedro de Vega, master. The tobacco has been bonded in tlie warehouses of Messis. John Leach anil Co., for transhipment, either to London, Liverpool, or Bristol. We understand that it is determined to make our port the depdt f0, the future im- portation of this altiele from SOlllh America. In consequence of Prince Albert's visit to Bristol being fixed for Wednesday, the 19th inst., the Lady Charlotte, Cardiff and Bristol sieam-packet, which was advertised lo sail at nine o clock in the morning, will not sail from Bristol until hall-past eight in the evening, thns giving an oppor- tunity of going and returning the same day. At a meeting of the Neath Hoard of Guardians on the 4th ult., the Rev. D. Jeffieys, lafe of St. Bride's Major, and now Curate of Neath, was elected to the office of Chaplain to the above Union. At the Court for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors, held at Haverfordwest on Wednt'sday, the 12th instant, before Mr. Commissioner Reynolds, the following persons were declared to be entitled to the benefit of the act, and ordered lo be discharged forthwith, viz.John Williams, Lucy Bowen, David Phillips, John Phillips, John Morgan, George Collins, and John Robert Motgaiis. The case 01 John Rees was adjourned till next circllil. Mr. Samuel Probvn, of Pontypool, was lately chosen one of the Clinical Assistants and A-sistant House Surgeon to the Westminster Hospital. This gentleman and Mr. Charles Sloper, of Tredegar, were awarded the head prizes at the general examination at Christmas last, for the greatest proficiency in anatomical science. SKRTTY TEA-PARTY.—On Monday last, a tea-party was held in the new Chapel-yard, at Sketty, for the purpose of liquidating a portion of the debt remaining on the place. So large and respectable a company on a similar occasion has not been witnessed for some years in this part of the count ry; from 1200 to 1300 partook of the refreshing beverage. We have only to regret that, in consequence of parties continuing to pour in 1111 a late hour, the intended public meeting at the close was compelled to be suspended, which deprived the Ministers of the opportunity of expressing their gratitude for the presence of their friends. Notwithstanding the whole of the expenses were defrayed by the liberal donalions of the members of the churcli and congregation, the sum of upwards of 60i. was realized towards the object in view. Tu E IRON TKADK.—Notwithstanding that the late immense order for rails received at Dowlais from the Russian Government, such is the depression of the tiade that 200 miners and 150 colliers are to be discharged almost im- mediately. VESSEL FOUNDEKKD.—On the 29th ult, the Unity, of St. Ives, T. B. Thomas, master, whilst on her voyage from St. Ives to Cardiff, in ballast, and when abopt ten miles north of Newquay, foundered, the crew having just time to save themselves and their elothes.-We understand that the vessel was insured. MOllE GATES DESTROYED.—A troop of the 4th Light Dragoons, from Brecon, arrived at Llandovery on Thursday selititiglit, nin'er the command of Capt. Halkef, and on the nigh' of the same day a troop of Rebecca's children entered the district, to commence a campaign against the turnpikes and toll-bars. An attack was made that night upon Pump- saint gate, about midway between Llandovery and Lampeter; the gate, posts, and rails were completely destroyed and levelled to the ground with the usual celerity which marks the operations 01 Rebecca and her untoward offspring, who in many instances contrive to cast a spell or illusion over those who miiht naturally be expected to hear and witness thein at their work of destruction, so that in the present instance none of the inhabitants of the village of Puwpsaint seem It) have been aware of what was passing in their midst until they arose next morning, saw the remains of the gate and posts. Oil Sa it'day morning, the troop received orders to remove to Llandilo the following morning, to lhe surprise and astonishment ot most-persons and even of the Dragoons themselves, a. Snntlay march being such an unusual occur- rence except in cases of great emergency. Rebecca's guerrilla troops weie, however, not to be dismayed by the presence of her Majesty's soldiers, as a small detachment of her recruits about eleven o'clock on Satuiday night, broke down the turupiKe gale and bar at Bton\elin, 5 miles from Llandovery, on the road to Llanwrtyd. The Trustees of the roads have' offered Jargt' tewards for the discovery of those who were engaged in both the above cases. Other gales in the neigh- bourhood ot Llandovery have been threatened with destruc- tion, which has given some work to the authorities of the place to piovide a sufficient force of special constables, &c., to present those threats being catried into execution.—On Friday night last, a gang of the above description, disguised as usual, demolished the Twely-biidge gate, near the village of Llandyssjl, on the Newcastle Emhn road, and threw the fiagmcnts ot it into the river Tivy,—The gale at Gwarallt, on the Carmarthen and Lampeter road, was destroyed on Monday ni^lit. h A I AL ACCIDENT.— A sad accident occurred on Wednesday se'unigbt, at the Cyfarthfa. Works, in conse- quence of an explosion of fire-damp, which resulted in the death ol a workman of the name of Taylor, who was burnt in a most high/of manner. Several other workmen, who were in ihe work at the same time, were most dreadfully sco'ched by the burning element, but it is hoped they will recover. SUDDEN DEATHS AT CIUCKHOWELL.—On Tuesday last, James Parrott, of the Ordnance Medical Department, was found dead in his bedroom. An inquest wis held before Edward Daties, Esq., coroner. Vertlict- Died by the visitation of God."—AUo at Crickhowell, on Monday last, a poor man, named Nicholas Williams, went out of his lions-, and near the door he was observed leaning against a window he was carried in, and died instantane- ous! v.— Silurian. APPALLING SUICIDE.— On Tlmrsdav se'nnight, Mr. Rees Tucker, a respectable watchmaker and jeweller, re- siding in L.initnas-streef, Carmarthen, committtd suicide bv hanging himself. The unfortunate man had on two previous occasions attempted selt-desti uction hy cutting his throat with a razor, but timely medIcal ilitl arriving, he did not suc- ceed in effecting his object, lie has been almost continually for months past in a stale ot intoxication, and there can be no doubt but that the constant usfut ardent spiiits has occa- sioned (empoiMiy insanity, which prompted the committing of t lied read fill crime of suicide. He was in his life-time a q:.iet, inofien-ive man, and had accumulated some little pro- perty in tact, lie was comfortably situated and was doing an excellent business. He has been known frequently to state to bis ti i!• litis that drillk drove him mad, and white intoxicated slim lly after his lile was saved when he first attempte.) to commit suicide, he exclaimed that he would do for himself some lime or other.—On Fiidav evening, an inquest was held 011 ilie body, when, in addition to the above particulars, it was clearly proved, that the deceased had upon several occasions lately, evinced decided symptoms of insanity, and thejllry returned a verdict, that he bad "destroyed himself while 1.1110111 ing under a fit ot temporary insanity." AltiKDt.it AT LLANRWST.—In our fourth page, we have given some particulars of it suspected murder of an aged widow-woman named Margaret Davies, at Llanrwst, 1) nhiuhshire. On Monday, the 3d instant, all inquest was held Oil the body of the unfortunate female, when, from vaiions contradictovy statements made by Evan Jones, the su-ptcied murderer, the jury biought in a verdict of Wi ful Minder" against him. and he was committed to Rirlrn Gaol to take his trial at the next Denbigh Assizes.

MERTHYB.—On Monday se'nnight an effort was made to revive the cause of The British and Foreign Bible Society, in Merthyr, where it had become all but extinct. The meeting was held in the English Wesleyan Chapel, High street; a preparatory sermon had been pleached the preceding evening, by the resident minister, the Rev. Mr. Worth. Sir John Guest, Bart., M.P. for the borough, pre- sided at the meeting. He expressed his unqualified appro- bation of the principles and operations of the society, and the pleasure he felt in assisting to pmmote its objects; ad- verted to the munificent gift of J0001. to the society from the centenary fund raised by the Wesleyan Methodists; and read extracts from the letter which accompanied that donation as recorded in the society's report, just published. The Rev. Mr. Phillips, of Hay, and the Rev. Mr. Davies, of Brecon, attended as a deputation, and were assisted by Revds. Messrs. Harris Evans, Worth, Griffith, and Mr. Walter Watkins, all of Merthyr. The latter gentleman de- clared that his love to Ihe bible society reached to his heart and his pocket, and he laid on the lable rhe slim of five guineas as his subscription. Thanks being given to the chair- man, and acknowledged by him, the collection was made, which (considering tiie trade of the place is greatly de- pressed), was as large as could be reasonably expected the assembly was then dismissed.

RAILWAY TO HOLYHEAD.—The Government has fa present under consideration plans for qllickening the inter- course between England and Ireland, by forming a railway from Chester to Holyhead, on the plan proposed by Mr. George Stephenson. The line, according to thisp)an,wnt cross the Dee just below Chester race-ground, and will keep the sea coast along nearly the whole of its course, winding round the base of Penmaenmawr and others of the Welsh mountains, crossing the Menai Straits hy the present bridge, and terminating at Holyhhead, which Mr. Stephenson con- siders the best point of embarkation for Ireland. Should the determination to carry out this great wotk be persevered in, as there is every reason lo expect that it will l»e it will of coutse, have to be executed, either in whole or'in part' at the public expense, as the traffic along the line will never pay the cost of so immense and expensive a construction.™ Liverpool Times. THE IRON TRADE. — At the meeting1 on Thursday last, of the Staffordshire ironmasters, at the Stewpony, Messrs. J. Foster, G. Thoi neycroft, J. Barker Matthews, P. Wil. liams, and Sparrow, were appointed a deputation to wait appointed a deputation to wait upon Sir U. Peel, and to bring before him the depressed condition of the iron trade ill this distiict. Of the propriety of this determination there can be no question; the facts of the case ought not only to be submitted to the Minister, but pressed emphatically upon his attention. Not only is tltp state of the trade most dis- astrous and unsatisfactory, but its prospects are srill darker; and nothing but an increased consumption of iron can pre- vent nrn from falling upon thousands. We predicted this state of things twelve months ago, and, at the same time, pointed out what we conceived to be a remedy—the more effectual development of the resources of our colonies. Since then the aspect of affairs has. in some degree, changed. America seems willing to revise her tariff. But if we would not place ouiselves at the mercy of any foreign nation, we must still look to our colonies as the only hope of a soundly extended trade. We trust that the deputation w ill Ilot only state the deplorable condition of the trade, but also be pie. pared lo point out some remedies, and that in th^se remedies America and our colonies will uot be forgotten.—Birmingham Advertiser. RKISTOL BANKRUPTCY COURT,-Orl Tuesday, the 4tli inst., the accounts of the assignees o i William Joius, ship-builder, of Cardifl, were audited. The assignees and solicitor of J. Wood, banker, of Cardifl, appeared to give information to the court. The fiat against this bankrupt was issued so long ago as 1823. The e.state ot t)'e bankrupt ivas, it was staled, originally very large, being estimated at 53,308/. and it was alleged that at the time of the bankruptcy he was perfectly soh'ent. Of the large amount due lo the estate, only 753(i/. bad been divided amongst the creditors, and (here was about ;j{}{)fJl. now in hand, bat against thai there were outstanding lawyers" bills for upwards of 2400/. Only two audit meeting had ever been lie-Id, and but one dividend of Cs. in the pound declared. The original solicitors to the fiat had been removed, it was alleged on the ground of great mis- management, to say the least. Nllmerolls suits had sprung up, and the whole affair was in a most complicated stale. Lately a new solicitor, Mr. Dalton, had been appointed, and be promised, at the request of the court, to furnish as accurnte an historical account of the whole proceedings, as the materials will allow. When this is supplied, it is the purpose of the court to appoint an audit meeting and go through the whole! of the accounts minutely. Any report at present would be unintelligible to our readers. It is right to state that no biaine attaches to the present solicitor. Mr, DaUon, but, as we understand, con,iderable praise is due to him for his efforts In bring he com pi icated a flairs of the estate lo a settlement.—On Thursdav and Fridav, the 6th and 71h instant, the petition or the Reo. l\b.'itezi!r Morris, Vicar ol Llauelly, Carmarthenshire, came on for hearing before Com- missioner Mr. Serjeant Stephen.— It appeared by the schedule, that the insolvent's debts exceeded 500ùJ., that his household eflects had been assigned by the Sheriff, under an execution, in Slav, 1842, but which lie had been allowed to use by the purchaser, and that there were scarce 1 v nnv other assets to meet the above liabilities, except the insolvent's livings. It appeared also that he was incumbent of three churches, yielding an income of upwards of 500/. a-year, out ot which 1001. was payable to a curate. It was stated the livings were sequestrated by a creditor, named Thomas, for 1300/. and interest, so that there could not be mucli left for the general bodv of creditors, mostly tradespeople in his own town, who could ill afford the loss. The insolvent was opposed by two of his principal creditors, and on the case being partially gone into, it appeared to the court, that his balance- sheet required amendment, and it was adjourned to the 27th of July, for a further hearing, and in the mean lime the Reverend Gemleinan was ordered to amend and file his balance-sheet.
