CATTLE. LONDON CATTLE MARKET, Monday.—Beef trade very quiet, with a spare supply of choice animals. Conse- quently the latter must be written up to our top quota- tions. All below that grade, whether British or foreign, somewhat easier of purchase. British mutton fully as dear, but dull. Foreign best sorts firm, seconds slightly lower..Short of calves has created a demand at higher rates. Pork trads without change. Beef, 5s to Gs Gd mutton, 5s 6d to 7s 2d veal, li Gd to 5s lOd; pork, 4s 6d o-'n's ^ts, 4,280 sheej) and lambs, 21,090 calves, o.JO; milch cows, 45 including foreign beasts, 2,240 sheep and lnmbs, 11,010 calves, 280 milch cows, *15. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Monday.—There were 207" beasts agaii.st 2634, and 18,850 sheep and lambs against 15,535. Cattle in good demand, and prices favouring sellers. Sheep and lambs were rather easier to buy, and middling and inferior were slow of sale. There were a few Spanish beasts on offer. Tiie foot and mouth disease was the Ruhject of some complaint in the market prices. Best departments, !)d to !J second, nd to 7d; sheep, SAd to lOd lambs, 8.1"1 to WATERFOKD BUTTER MARKET, Monday.—(Mahony & Co.'s Iteport.)—Weather for past week tine, and supply of butter rather short owing to the former being busy with hay harvesting.

I AGRICULTURE, THE WEATHER, AND THE MARKETS. (FROM LAST NIGHT'S "MARK LANE EXPRESS.) Fine weather has just come in time to save the nation from a serious calamity. Indeed much local harm has already been done, but we were threatened with a serious injury to our harvest prospect3. A second crop may partly counterbalance the loss of hay through floods. While corn has been wonderfully saved, and we may have a moderate gathering in good order, the upward movement hs of course suddenly stopped, and prices, not yet settled, have lost from 2s to 3s of the recent gain. Bread has risen, though not to a high price, and the cur- rent rates for wheat are still below last year's. In France favourable weather has forwards 1 the harvest, and has been accompanied with & falling market, Paris being 2s per quarter cheaper for wheat and Is for rye. Belgian and German markets are similarly affected while New York quotes a lower range of prices. We now hear that drought has severely told upon the north of Portugal, and the (fficial accounts of the crops in Austria and Hungary show mor;) like a deficiency than any surplus.

TONNAGE DUES ON COr'.L-LAJ)E'N SHIPS AT MALAGA. Consul Wilkinson, in his commercial report on Malaga for last year, just issued, calls attention to the remarkable method adopted by the Spanish Government of levying the inward tonnage duties on coal-laden ships. Thesa dues are computed, not upon the quantity or weight actually discharged, as is the case all other kinds of merchandise, but upon a calculation based upon the measured capacity of the ship, which is ascer- tained in accordance with certain rules prescribed by the Spanish Custom ordinance. The practical result of the operation is that no vessel pays tonnage duty on more than three-fourths of the quantity ()f c,ls landed at Malaga, and in many instances, especially as regards steamert, the product of measured capacity only gives about one half or two-thirds of the actual^ v eight of the cargo carried and delivered. At first view it might be in- ferred that the system favours the interests of our carrying trade yet, far from this being the case, it is quite the reverse, and the reason is that the regulations and for- malities to which the measurement of ships is subjected render it very difficult to obtain the clearance of a coal- laden vessel on the same day on which she completes the discharge of her cargo, and the cost of one day s detention often more than neutralizes the benefit the owners may derive from the system referred to.

THE DUKE OF" EDINBURGH. The Berlin correspondent of the DaUy Telegraph says It is currently reported here, in circles that may be said to he well-informed, that pourparlers have taken place be- tween the German Government and the Duke of Edin- burgh concerning the succession of his Royal Highness to the throne of Coburg. I am told that the Duke is willing to resign his sovereign rights to Germany for a life-rent and the usufruct of the Crown property. The cession will he accepted by the German Empire, Coburg becoming an Imperial province. The sum fixed as the yearly amount of compensation is, I am informed, E80,000 sterling.—The Emperor of Russia, it is stated, when consulted upon the subject, approved of this arrangement.

EXTRAORDINARY DEATH. On the top of a Lancashire and Yorkshire railway car- riage connected with the last train from Huddersfield to Bradford and due at the latter town 11.40 on Saturday liHit was found the dead body of a well-dressed young man, who had in liis pcckets a railway ticket for travelling from Huddersfield to Elland, 17s. 6d. in money, and a gold watch guard. His forehead was severely fractured and his face was lace- rated. The body was removed to the deadhouse at the Bradford Union workhouse. He was identified as Mr. Henry Maud, aged 28, worsted spinner, of West Vale, Greetland, near Halifax. He was seen by his brother at Huddersfield shortly before the train departed on Saturday mgln, and his intended destination was EllantL It is sup- posed that he had injudiciously taken the outside of the carriage on the train, and in passing under a bridge at Bradley, near Huddersfield, he had come in contact with the bridge, and received such injuries as caused his death. His hat has been found at Bradley.

CHURCH AND DISSENT. The Rev. Samuel Minton, M.A., of Worcester Colkge, Oxford, a clergyman of the Church of England, in priest's orders, preached twice on Sunday, in the Baptist Chapel, Regent's-parlc, London. It will be remembered that a few weeks since the Hon. and Rev. W. Fremantle, Rector of St. Mary's, Bryanston-square, was announced to preach at Dr. Paileer's City Temple," when the Bishop of London remonstrated with him, and intimated that if he perse- vered in his intention legal proceedings would be taken against him. Mr. Fremantle consulted Mr. Fitzjames Stephen, Q.C., and Mr. Benjamin Shaw, the former of whom held that a clergyman of the Church of England is restricted to the servicespresciibed in the Book of Common Prayer, and that it W¡IS a principle recognised in many de- cided cases that a clergyman of the Church of England commits an ecclesiastical offence by officiating, even ac- cording to the Act of Uniformity, without the authority of the bishop. Mr. Minton was for many years minister of Eaton Chapel, Eaton-square, acting under the licence of the Bishop of London, but resigned his appointment at the commencement of the present year. At the present time ..be holds no parochial cure.

PHYSIC IN FOOD. Watercress has long had the popular reputation of being a powerful antiscorbutic. Probably all the crucyeice equally deserve this title. M. Dupuy says that the plant centains an essential oil of which sulphur forms a con- stituent, and that he has also discovered in cress iodine, iron, bitter extract, and phosphorus. He therefore anas these minerals to the soil to increase the quantity in the plant, and then prepares a succus. He has esablisbed cie.is gardens for the culture of this plant, in OK er, as he says, to vegetabilise (I) the minerals which glvo it such important properties. Ihis reminds us tna ong ago an Italian writer proposed to obtain lodiset nil k for his patients by feeding cows on liny spun i.oi with a solution of potassium iodide. We worker it the cows would like the flavour.

The Lord Chancellor took his seat at 5 o'clock. SUMMARY PROSECUTIONS IN K /i"L VND. The Summary Prosecution Appeals (Scotland) Bill having been repd a second time, The Duke of BUCCLEUOH, observing that by the present law it was only open to move the superior case where ri.,tl;ce, oppression, or corruption was alleged, pro- posed an amendment, with the object of continuing that limitation. < [EARL BEAUCHAMP exclaimed that the Bill merely extended to Scotland the power of magistrates to state a case for the opinion of the Superior Courts on points of law. The amendment was withdrawn and the Bill passed THE CONSPIRACY BILL. On the report of amendments to the Conspiracy and Protection of Property Bill, ihelvARL of ROSEBERY moved to omit from Clause 4 the words" of service," so as to make the penal- ties provided applicable not only to workmen bviu to any person breaking a contract by which the supply of gas or water to a district might be affected. This was opposed by the LORD CHANCELLOR, and negatived on a division by 24 to 17, majority 7. With verbal amendments the report wa3 received, i ll h EMPLOYERS'AND WORKMEN'S BILL, The report of amendments to the Eemployers'j and Workmen's Bill was also received. MISCELLANEOUS.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDAY. The Speaker took the chair at four o'clock. The new member for Hartlepool, Mr J. Lowthian Bell, took the oath and his seat for Hartlepool THE SHIPPIN--r BILL. Mr HERSCHELL gave notice of an amendment in Committee on_ the Unseaworthy Ships' Bill, requiring the adoption of a load line showing the maximum depth of lading. Mr KATHBONE, Mr GORST, and Sir J. Mc Jvti-rs 3N A. also gave notices with respcct to the powers of the Board of xrade t;) make regulations with respect to resistance being offered to the surveyors or other officials. MRS. MINA JUHY. Dr KRl.\J\LY gave notice to-morrow that he would ask whether inquiries had been ma.de as to the iiuh-ntity of Mrs Mina Tury with Mercivaua Caulfield, who was con- victed at Dublin in 1847, and whether the fact was known to the authorities in Scotland Yard when she was sub- poened as a witness in the Tichhorne trial. He alse gave notices of a similar character with respect to the cases of John Hopwood and Jean Luie. WARRANTS OF DISTRESS. Mr MACDONALD gave notice that eady next Session he should bring in a Bill to abolish warrants of distress for the sale of necessary articles of domestic furniture, in cases in which the parties were not in a position to avail themselves of the Bank- ruptcy Act. TRAINING SCHOOLS. Captain PIM gave notice that next Session he should bring in a Bill to establish a training ship in connection with the County Industrial Schools. THE TRANSFER OF THE GAMBIA. Mr HUGrliibSLN" gave notice that to-morrow he should ask whether the Government would comply with the pledge of the late Government that no steps should be taken for the final transfer of the Gambia, without its having been submitted to Parliament. THE PROTECTION 01" WOMEN AND CHILDREN. In replv to Col"uel Egerton Leigh, Mr I) loIwvLLI said that the subject of the better protection of women and children from gross assaults and illtreatment would engage their serious consideration, but it was inconvenient as a matter of practice to give a pledge to introduce a Bill of this kind early next Session. THE COST OF THE TICHBORNE TRIAL. In reply to Mr Whalley, Mr SMITH declined to give any further returns or in- formation with respect to the expenses of the Tichborne Trial. Mr WHALLEY subsequently gave notice that he would call attention to the question on goin" into Com- mittee of Supply. J THE DEATHS IN MONASTIC AND CON- T 1 } INSTITUTIONS.

They thf'v n,0t? ^owever> disposed to stop there tle y thought of l iiito their consideration the question 0'V!T e' an<1 they had to ask themselves how far it is ITf i niec'; the wishes of the Government and facili- tate the passing of the Bill. The r. solution which he ^t° move would facilitate their going into Committee, 't if ai1-' '0 ^e question of the load-line, ifc presented "self under two aspects. Some thought the Government J'U^.it (o be capable and willing to impose a load-line, but this would raise a long discussion, and he did not tuink the question ought to be discussed during the prc- sent Session. (Hear, hear) He thought, however, there ought to be an owner's load-line, that was to say aii owner ought to be compelled to record a load-line on his °wn ships going to sea. Another advantage of ^this would be that it would get rid of one of the great diffi- culties that stood in the way at the present time, when- ever an attempt at legislation was made on any question would be that it would get rid of one of the great diffi- culties that stood in the way at the present time, when- ever an attempt at legislation was made on any question involving technical legislation or information. The Board of Trade was deterred more than anyone else by I these technical difficulties, He found that the Depart- ment bad created a aimculty tor ltsen WHL.1 ,*cr,aiu to grain cargoes, by writing to Lloyd's and obtaining one of the silliest answers which it had ever been his lot to read and that answer had been circulated amongst members of the Board of Trade to elicit obstructive views. Their action as members of the House was interfered with by the bringing forward of the tipiniolls of those whose interests were adverse to legislation. He denied the opinions of the Secretary of Lloyds, and ne hoped that they wculd not be deterred by the production of corres- pondence like th a t before them. C hear.) He con- fesserl to a feeling of annoyance at finding legislation continually hampered by the elicitation of information from interested persons of adverse opinions, and he hoped the Government would accept the proposal he had named, because there was not a single reason that he c uld find against it. He knew very well that the House might be prepared to doubt that, because on his own side of the House adverse opinions had been expressed in regard to the load-line but those opinions were not direct against the load-line whose cause he was advocating. He thought the Government would find an almost unanimous vote on his side of the House, and that a large number of'mem- bers on the other side would not be prepared to deny kl. reasonableness of the proposition. At any rate, he could say this, that in suggesting this compromise on the sub- ject they believed that it would really largely operate against sacrifice of life in the coming winter. He should be obliged, if the necessity arose, to go to a division upon it, and ascertain who those hon. members were who would refuse the people of this country the reasonable concession that had been presented to the House. After alluding to the agitation which had taken place recently on the subject, the hon. member concluded by stating that if the Government would accept the proposal he had brought forward, he and those with him would do their best to get rid of many of those amendments which had no relation to the principle embodied in the resolution, and would render the Government every as- sistance in passing the measure (hear, hear). The resolution was seconded by Mr EUSTACE SMITH. Lord ESLINGTON objected to any isuch load-line as would depend entirely on the arbitrary supervision of the Board of Trade; but h, did not think there would be any objection to the alternative proposition of adopting a shipowners' load-line, which was, in fact, what was pro- posed by the Government in their previous measure. Mr ORWOOD, who stated that he was the author of the proposal to establish a shipowners' load-line, ex- pressed his strong approbation of the proposition. After some remarks from Mr G. BENTINCK. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER objected to the ambiguous shape in which the resolution appeared before the House, and called attention to the difficulties attending the general question of fixing a load-line. He pointed to the circumstances under which the Govern- ment had been compelled to abandon their own measure. which proposed to deal with the whole of the complicated question relative to merchant skipping', t;nd argued that when at the last mnmen the Governnvut proposed to deal by a short measure with the more i:n; ortant matters which could be most easily disposed of, it was only likely to increase the difficulty in the way ..i tbe Government to raise a new load-line question. Iowa-, true ihat Govern- ment would have enabled the owner to mark his own load line, but there ware two other clauses in the Eill relating to the owner's liability, under the second of which a ship- owner would have, by his agreement with the seamen, to contract that the vessel was absolutely seaworthy. If the shipowner w. re to be allowed t">establish his own load-line would the House restore thee liability clauses ? The establishment of the proposed load line to be recorded by the Government would entail a responsibility upon the Government which might be a very serious one. Viewed only in a financial point, moreover, the Bill, if carried. could not take effect until the middle of next winter, and seeing that the effect of carrying the resolution would be at least to stop the progress of the Bill, he thought it would be much wiser to go at once into Committee ell the Bill, and there to deal with the questions that would arise. Mr SHAW LEFSVRE saw no connection between the two liability clauses of the Government Dill and the load-lire question before the House, and considering the mi,derate nature of Mr Rees proposal, be regretted that the Government did not see their way to accept it. Sir C. ADDERLE V said the object of the load-line proposed in the recent Government measure was simply to make the matter me of contract between the owners and their seamen, arid not to im;'Oj; responsibility re- specting the question on Government. Mr SAMUDA upon Mr Reed the desirability of withdrawing his resolution in its present .form, and in Committee, moving the latter part of it as to the record of the loadline by Government officers. Mr MACIVER appealed to the hon. gentleman the member for Pembroke to withdraw his resolution, and not to put the qustion to which it related to the risk of a Par- liamentary division. Mr RKED hero withdrew his motion, stating that he would renew the substan' of it in Committee. The House then went in Committee on the Bill. On the first clause, Mr RATHBONE moved that the Bill be made appli- cable to ships with deck cargoes, or laden with grain in bulk. He also proposed that the measure should give powers to deal with the questions of the draught of ships. Sir C. ADDERLEY hoped the amendment would not he pressed, as it would, it carried, completely upset the Bill which the Government had put before the House. Mr RATHBONE said he would withdraw the amend- ment as it was objected to by the Government. The amendment was consequently withdrawn. Mr E. JENKINS then moved an amendment to Clause 1 to insert certain words, the object of which was that a further amendment misht be proposed stating at great length the nature of the appointment and powers of the officers to enable them under the Clause to detain unseaworthy ships in foreign ports. After some discussion, in which the amendment Wall opposed by Sir C. ADDERLEY on the part of the Gov- ernment, the Committee divided, and the amendment was negatived by 176 against 26. The second portion of the amendment was then! with- drawn. Mr MACIVER moved an amendment to'Clause, the object of which was to give the officers to be appointed under the Clause authority to demand in writing from the master of outward bound ships from British ports a state- ment of the maximum load-lines to which their ships were intended to be laden, but the hon. gentlemen immediately withdrew the amendment. Mr E. SMITH moved the omission of the word British from the clause so as to apply the powers of inspection to vessels of all nationalities. Sir C. ADDERLEY pointed out that the proposal could not be carried out without creating great difficulties. Mr NORWOOD moved a new clause providing that a load-line should be conspicuously marked on every vessel to the satisfaction of the Board of Trade. Sir C, ADDERLEY strongly opposed the insertion of the amendment in a temporary Bill. A long discussion followed, in which Mr GOSCHEN, Lord ESLINGTON. Mr HERSCHELL, Sir J. HAY, Mr SAMUDA, and Mr BRASSEY took part. Mr DISRAELI admitted that there was great merit in the suggestions made by the hon. member, but thought the question involved was one of great difficulty, re- quiring a long discussion. He feared that a voluntary load-line would give a false authenticity, and lead to pub- lic deception, but it might work satisfactorily if accom- panied by clauses making the shipowner responsible for the line he himself marked on his vessels. The Govern- ment were willing to accept the principle of the owners load-line, as proposed in their original Bill, if the amend- ment were not persevered in, and in that case they would bring up clauses on the report. The amendment was then withdrawn. Mr MACIVER moved an amendment providing that no inspection nor certificate of survey or classification should in any way relieve shipowners of the responsibility to which they would otherwise be subjected. Sir C. ADDERLEY said the attempt referred to what was now existent, as there would be no inspector, certificate, nor loadline provided for in the Act. (Laugh- ter.) The amendment was then withdrawn. Sir J. Mc KE A moved an amendment defining what should constitute obstruction or it thrown by any captain of a vessel, or stevedore, in the v/ay of the officer appointed to put this Act in force. Sir C. ADDERLEY opposed the amendment, which was negatived. Clause 1 was then agreed tfi. On clause 2, which provides ta .t a ship shall be detained on the complaint of one fourth of the crew, or where the number ot seamen exestds twenty, by not less than five of them, Mr EUSTACE SMITH moved in amendment pro- viding that the number oomplaining s'aoidd be one-fourth whether large or small. Sir C. ADDERLEY astanted to the proposal, which W'^agretd to. Clause 2 was then agreed to, as also wore clauses o and 4; the latter limit3 the duration of the Act to the 1st of October, 187G. Mr REE!) moved a clause requiring tbat no dtck cargo Shall be carried on board British ships, except acids and other chemicals dangerous to be carried below, and cattle, &c in such quantities as the Board of Trade by their regulations permit. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER and Mr DISRAELI opposed the amendment, which was nega- tived by 173 against 130. Mr REED then moved a new clause directed against the loading of grain in bulk. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER resisted the motion, but consented to the adoption of the Clause, if it were so modified that it would apply only to cargoes of which more than one-third consisted of grain, This suggestion was accepted by Mr REED, and the clause thus amended was agreed to. Mr HEPSCH ELL moved a new clause imposing penalties for sending unseaworthy ships to sea. This was accepted by the Government. The Bill was then passed through Committee. The House adjourned at 2.30.
