There was another obje ction, band on Inglt maul sagerls, made to the bill, which he certainly did not sopa It was and that real charity would require th• gesst to to mode in the Haase of the testator, and not at Ms death. That might be so, but the question was not at what pried the testator's charity should begin, but whether the real *Pete of charity should be deprived of his tiara disposition at any time. (Hear, hear.) Because the arm might be selfish for • time, that wu no ram why the peer should he defrauded. The noble lord, having =an athenent peruse from Jeremy Taylor in praise of , went es to say that, whether the hone agreed or net in the sentiment of that eloquent writer, the argument which he had referred to ought not to be allows d to stand in the way of repealing an set of parliament which had pros dwell stash nefichigrons and cruel effects. He knew the disanneapes under which he laboured in urging this 1111111114 before the house; but so confident was he to the /ilea ef his canes, that even if be were not mappens& as le was supported, by great legal authority, fn his Mews, be ovoid have felt it to he his duty to advocate it to the beet of lb power. (Hear.) In conclusion, he ap pealed to the nab lord (Lord J. Rowell), who proved him self Ofbeke yeme se tree a friend of his church end nation; who bed di ee Such to emancipate trade avid commerce ; who bal no earassely endeavoured to promote the cause of dell nod religions liberty, and invited him to add vet anther wrests to his brow, by assenting to this bill.

He, aad he believed every member of that would give the noble lord credit for the motives which induced him to bring it forward. (Hear, hear.) He fully concurred in the sentiment of Dr. Jeremy Taylor n eglecting charity ; but he believed, notwithstanding the an of the 9th George 11., chap. 38, that if Jeremy Taylor were now living, he wsuld be surprised at the ex tent of the charitable institutions of this country. No per son could believe, therefore, for a moment that the act or the 9th of George 11. imposed restrictions on the free exercise of that christian virtue. The noble lord throughout his speech dent with the 9th of Geo. 11., as if it were the Mort main Act, as if it were the first provision by act of parlia ment on this subject. From the earlimt periods of their history emeriti of acts pamsed to prevent the alienation of land, and the 9th of Geo. 11. was passed with a view to prevent the evasion of these seta. It did not prevent the alienation of land, but only required that the conditioned its alienation should be observed—such as that the alienation should be by deed and not by will, and that the deed should be executed twelve months before the death of the grantor or donor, and enrolled within a certain time after execution in the Court of Chancery. If the charities for the watermen of London were languishing, as war stated by the noble lord, it ow because the donors bad not employed competent hal advice. They ought not to complain of the law of ointraain, but of the went of skill in the lawyer rugby= by the donor. With respect to the gentle man who tinned to leave property to the Berkshire hospital, he would advise the noble lord to write to him and inform him that be Right sell his property, live on the: interest of W , god leave the proceed. to the charity. The right he the member for Cambridge stated on a tom= ellenien the immense amount of personal property Ida Mil been bequeathed for charitable purposes since the Mierie it Nile late operation, sad that if real property bad bean Mad to the same extent, the church, and civil sad eadandsal anporations would be in possession of • greet rim of the land of the country. The real question we., whets charity was practically defeated by the opera tion of as it now stood, end whether it would be wise that all chase magearde from undue solicitation on the death bed should be resseved ? The noble lord was of opinion that the law did pram the exercise of chanty. But if that were so he did sot eery out his own viewm in the bill which he premed. The right hon. gentleman then went the the names of the bill, in order to show that they weal net newer the purpose for which they were de ✓ices*, a wield be wholly inoperative. He did not agree with the adds lord in hi cinemendations as to the mode in which eseposte property was swaged. In some instances it had beemaueged advanagaisr*, but it was not • kind of property whisk the Moue, d wish to see extended. (Hear, hi.)

And, if all the members of the committee had been patent, be did not think they would have explored themselves in the report as they had. He did not, however, wish to detract hen the value of the evidence of the leaned au who mem ansined before that committee. Many of them alight shot en alteration of the present law was de sirable, ha he did not think they would be in favour el aou ttrefeins of the noble lord's bill. There were un seen meesealies in the law se it stood at present. For innamos, may invested in the funds was held to be peened property, but according to the construe ties et the awn of law railway thane were con tained seal . He believed that many bond fide =es a failed essesquence of the difficulty of distin betimes paissaal and real property. But this was owl!g to the amernotion of their courts of law; and it weak he a new mode of legislating to say that the judges of Weinshoter Hall should be compelled to adept the con strain= of that Ileum. (Hear, hear.) For these reasons, be *sold the second ending of the bill. He did so at m* he knew the pains which the noble lord ea the surest, and the benevolent motives by which he wee enoall regret, however, diminbhell by knowing did are was the fullest development allowed to the mein .f charity, and that the purposes of the charitable night be carried out by only employing persons who had •sompetent knowledge of the law.

Now, were the house, is hots* men, pre pared to anent to sun a proposal as that ? Were they pre pared to take such a step on the authorities that had been 'defaced in favour of it ? The three members of the select ilammittee on the subject, who had considered this bill un asesseary, were Sir J. Y. Buller, the Earl of Arundel and eurey, and Mr. C. Buller, •the Judge Advocate-Ge neral. Did tte opinions of the three who thought the contrary, and who carried their views by the eihnlensan's casting vote, outweigh in importance the ef thee hen. neembers ? But then Lord Hard lie ismoirs were quoted. He must say that he thought AN *masks of the author of that work stood scarcely suffi cing* high to recommend the adoption of a law hued upon litillantarneats contained in it. One of those statements am Charge 11. bad declared the bishops of the church of " a set of black-coated, canting, hypocritical weals '—a statement which he was glad to hear that uhe of the noble lords opposite had condemned as " a petty ebulli tion of Hanoverian spite." He must say to those amble lords, however, that he did not think the animus with which the measure had been brought forward at all satiblesiney:. He had heard the words " sectarian and revolu= applied to the act of George ll.—words which he ought not to have been used. For his own part, he they* this bill only carried out a principle enunciated by a sal very charitable individual, that " it was more pleasant to be charitable qt the expense of others than at one's own seat." (Hear, and laughter.) That was not a sort of charity, Iteui ever, which he - (Sir R. H. Inglis) was desirous of encourag ing ; and he should, therefore, decidedly oppose the bill. Sir W. HEATHCOTB thought the defects of the bill might be remedied in committee, and that it contained suffi cient of what was goyi and useful to call upon the house to g ive it a escout reading. He trusted that the house would not be terrified by what he deemed the exaggerated views of bon. members, but would give the bill another stage, in the hope that the objections which bad been advanced might be removed in committee. Mr. NEWDEGATE objected to the bill u repealing the act of mortmain, and as providing what he deemed to be a very inefficient substitute. He thought that the inconve niences which the proposed bill were intended to remedy were not at all equal to the dangers which might follow on its adoption. Lord J. MANNERS, in reply, said that the Secretary of Sate had admitted that there were many striking anomalies in the present law. Surely the right hon. gentleman would permit such clauses of the bill to uin as went to correct these anomalies. An objection had been made that the bill would peril the collection of just debts, but he begged to point . out to the house that special care was taken to secure priority to these obligations. There was one other point to which he wished to allude. An objection bad been taken to the word " religion." He had the satisfaction to assure hen. members making this objection, that be had the but legal opinio ns to the effect that " charitable uses " would cover bequ ests for religious purposes in the estimation of courts of w. The house then divided—For the second reading 20 Against it AGRICULTURAL TENANT RIGHT. On the order of the day for the commitment of this bill being read, Mr. PUSHY stated that it was not his intention to pro ceed further with the bill during the present session. He believed that the beet mode of ensuring its ultimate success would be, to permit such previous inquiry as would satisfy all parties concerned, both of its justice and its necessity. He had presented petitions signed by farmers holding 200,000 acres in favour of the bill, and he was quite convinced that its becoming law was merely a question of time. Sir R. PEEL congratulated his hon. friend on the course he had taken in bnnging this question under the notice of parliament. But it was a most delicate and difficult subject of legislation. and therefore be thought his hon. friend had exercised a wise discretion, in not attemptieg to carry the bill without the fullest previous inquiry. There was no doubt that its main principle, that of tempting the invest ment of capital to the cultivation of land, and the securing of that capital when so invested, was one every way deserv ing the favourable consideration of parliament. Order discharged, bill withdrawn. LANDED PROPERTY IMPROVEMENT (IRELAND) H. ° it tte r fir O. NA_ _.•-•• - ideate • Mr. WARD mid that, if the Ohm were en old one, he would remind his boo. friend theit Is had, sem dese ago, warned him against tampering with the queen= etlmprem anent before it wee ripe Is deiblea ; he hod Isid hint that his bill would Mist injuries en twe eheten the ship as nen and the men ; and it he (Sir C. Napier) lailert boat absolutely overwhelmed by pretests OD the pit et the shipping and mercantile communlty apeinst the MO, It was simply became they felt convinced that the government would sat maiden It. The hon. gentleman proposed, in lien 111 Z 1 = 1 . 111 right of Impressment inherent in the mw, • of perpetual hamming and of irksome in laTn proclamations, which would greatly disturb the thipplei torest of the country and leave everything in aOM jusmteinty. After all, the bill did not assert the *lit of the area to make use of the naval popula tion. The weediest proposed by the fourth - clause eras le slim men into the win : if they elms inneneeb the bll would net With thew It anti be ienembered that an inquiry lad been betittild Me the state of the merchant serene ,• end with any eh whisk might take place on this subject hi thoughtirr sirable to connect other changes having for their objeet the general improvement cf the castanet of mamas. Be hoped no less than the hon. gentleman to see Impressment avoided, but that object might be attained without so great a die ' turbance of the commercial and skipping interests as would be caused by this bill; and, as it MY the unanimous opinion of the Board of Admiralty that, both on public and private grounds, it was most undennthle that the bill should be allowed to proceed to another stage, he was under the neces sity of moving as an amendment that the bill be reed a second time that day six months. After a few words from Mr. FOUTIII and Mr. COZILY, Sir C. NAPIER signified his intention of taking the ems of the house on the bill. The gallery was cleared for a division, but none took ace. y 1 I EDUCTION AND PROSTITUTION PREVENTION BILL. On the order of the day for the second reeding of this bill, Sir 0. GREY said that he must oppose the &ether pro. gnu of this bill, and he would state the ablation which he entertained to it. The first clause professed nasal with the act of procurement, solicitation, or preasolin of Illicit in tercourse. He admitted that this o9loes was not sufficiently provided for by law, and he was prepared to agree to a bill which should subject the persons guilty of it to realties. But this clause did not carry out its object satisfactorily, and the penalties were objectionable, as was also the summary jurisdiction which it gave. Another clause (the 9th) provided that, on a certificate of couviction of a person keeping a brothel, it should operate as an avoidance of the lease. The objection to this se it now stood was, any one might get a Mond to apply for a certifieate in order to avoid the lease. He still thought that the landlords should have the power of avoiding the lease on • certificate of conviction. With ngard to the other clauses, there were great objections to them. They were drawn in general terms, and were of I val sweeping tendency; and therewas no knowing who might nabs brought under their operation, and be made parties to arena which would subject them to penalties. For intend, the third clause, respecting soy house or place in whisk the mu ter or mistress knowingly permitted illicit intereoune, might be made to apply to any landlord of an ins at which persons not married suddenly arrived and peeved the night. It therefore went b ey ond its professed aim. The tares of the second clause were um too general, and the objection which applied to the third clause was equallylapplicahle to the fourth, which enacted penalties &pint any person knowifigiy acting as a servant in • brothel. These objections only showed the impossibility of legislating en this subject, which it was most desirable to provWe for, if it were possible. He Hain it better to limit the bill to the punishment of permedguilty of procurement for the purposes of prostitution, w he admitted was • grave offence, and which ought to be tried by a competent tribunal. Such a bill he would support ; bit there were none of the clauses in this bill which he could agree to in committee ; and therefore he thought the hon. member had better withdraw it, and obtain leave to introduce another. Mr. SPOONER said, that, after what had been said by the rightbon. baronet, he was sure it would bee waste of time, as well as melee, in him, to do mom than adopt the course which he had kindly pointed out. The objections which had been pointed out were part of a bill which bad obtained the sanction of a second reading in the House of Lords, and which was withdrawn only on the government to statit objec tions it, and saying that they were willing to take Sub ject into their consideration. The ream° why it toit limited to the single endeavour to prevent trading in sed Lion, was the difficulty of doing as without interfering wl the receiving houses to which seduced victims were taken, and to remedy that evil. He should withdraw this bill, and ask leave to bring in a " Bill for the more effectual Sup pression of the Trading in Seduction and Prostitution.' The bill provided that persons guilty of that offence should be liable to indictment for misdemeanor, sad be subject to fine and imprisonment. Mr. C. BERKELEY objected to the hon. member's moving for leave to bring in a bill without due notice. Mr. SPOONER said that the hon. member, no doubt, had a right to object, and he should, therefore, give notice that he should to-morrow move for leave to bring in the bill.

On the order of the day for committee on this bill being reed, Mr. IL CRAWFORD said that the object of the bill was, to enable tenants for life to secure the value of such improve ments as they might make on the land by way of rent charge. Mr. MONAHAN said that there was matter in the bill which would require a good deal of consideration. There ' was an act at present in existence, called the Duke of Rich monde act, w hich had the same end in view as that contem plated by the bill of the hen. member, the only difference being that the powers of the act were vested in the Court of Chancery, and not in the Board of Works. There were parts of the bill of which he approved; and if the hon. member would consent to postpone the committee for a few days, he would give it his most careful consideration. Committee poetponed for a week. ROMAN CATHOLIC CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. Mr. ROM ILLY withdrew his motion for the second read ing of this bill, at the same time giving notice that, on Tues day next, he intended to move for a committee to inquire into the administration of charitable trusts as connected with Roman oatholice. POOR RATES (IRELAND) BILL. On the order of the day for the committee on this bill being read, Mr. 8. CRAWFORD said he merely wished the bill to be committed proforma in order that certain alterations which had been suggested to him might be made. Tim bill was committed pro forma, and on the bringing up of the report Mr. 8. O'BRIEN protested against the further progress of the bill. It wes a subject of too great importance to be undertaken by say private member of that house. Sir G. GREY said that on the second reading of the bill he had stated the grounds on which he permitted that stage of the bill to be proceeded with. To some portions he objected, especially the sixth clause, but that might be altered in committee ; and certainly there was much in the present state of the law which required alteration. At pre sent, when poor-rates were due, the landlord could only be got at through the occupying tenants, but be should reserve his opinion on this and other points until the bill came regularly before him in committee. He trusted that the hon. member for North Northamptonshire would not press the rejection of the bill. Mr. J. YOUNG was opposed to the priasiple of the MR. Mr. 8. CRAWFORD declared that one ef his okras in going into committee was to explain the arta; idiots, to which objettitss had hoes cede; net at he did not think the el_s anstsen, bat be wee eindeok it pebble, to meet the whites oldie beer. At premed tonents were so much ander the power of Me radioed and the middleman, that they did not dare to emert their riche, sad der s the amount of rates whit& gm ware settled to deduct.

To the principle of the bill he wee determignil to adhere. Sir R. FERGUSON opposed the till, observing that it would render the collection of arc ablest impossible.

Mr. WA K LEY postponed the second reading of this bill till Monday fortnight. HEALTH OF TOWNS BILL. Viscount MORPETH moved that the house should go into committee on this bill pro forma, so that it might be reprinted. No further stein would be taken with it before the Whitsuntide holidays. Col. SIBTHORP wuhed to know why the parts of the bill which related to London, which required more care anti supervision than any other city, should be withdrawn any more than those which related to Lincoln or any other town. Mr. SPOONER suggested that that part of the bill which was compulsory on municipal towns, should be made op- Sound. After • few words from Mr. TURNER. and Sir J. DUCK WORTH, the purport of which we were unable to catch, Dr. BOWRINO hoped that the noble lord would not usr the concessions he made with regard to this bill any further ; fur if much more was surrendered it would be of little value. He could assure him that he was supported in it by opinion oat of doors, and especially by the working classes. Viscount BANDON confirmed what had been just dated by the hon. member ; for a petition in favour of the bill in Liverpool had bees signed by several hundreds of the work- ingcluees in a few hours. Col. T. WOOD thought that the object of the bill might be carried out by the Commissioners of the Wood■ and Forests, and that there should be no new board. Viscount MORPIITH said he had consented to the eulu sion of the city of London, not because it had less need of the provisions of such a hill than the city of Lincoln, but on account °lite Tortoise and the mom of legislation with which it war connected, which could not be dealt with this session. He was not prepared to adopt the suggestion that the inclu sion of corporate towns in the provisions of the bill should be merely voluntary. He was glad to hear the exhortations of the hon. member for Bolton, and the noble lord the mem ber for Liverpool, and he hoped that they would see, and the house would me, that they would not be needed. On the motion that the Speaker do leave the chair, Col. SIBTHORP moved that the house be counted, and only 34 members being present, the house stood adjourned at ten minutes to six.

AT the morning sitting of the House of Commons, yesterday, the Pious and Charitable Trusts Bill was, on a division on the question of the second reading, rejected by a majority of 146 ; the numbers being 20 to 166.—Mr. PUSEY withdrew the Agricultural Te nant Right Bill.—On the question of bringing tip the report on Mr. Sharman Crawford's Poor Rates (Ire land) Bill, the house divided, when the motion was negatived by a majority of 26 ; the numbers being ,81 to 55.—The second reading of Sir C. Napier s Seamen's Enlistment Bill wee negatived without a division.—Mr. SrooNen withdrew the Seduction and Prostitution Prevention Bill, with the intention of bringing in an amended one, providing that offending parties should not be subject to summary jurisdiction, but be indictable for misdemeanor in a court of law. —On the question of the committal of the Health of Towns Bill, the house divided, when, forty members not being present, an adjournment necerserily ensued. IT is certainly very ominous for M. GUIZOT, the unexpected difficulty which he found of completing his ministry, after the three forced vacancies of his own creation. The difficulty was unexpected, else it would not have been created or forced. And it proves that the French minister has a much higher idea of his own power and solidity than the Parisian public entertain. There is, however, a certain atmos phere of opinion which is peculiarly confined to the capital. No Parisian dare ran counter to this opinion ; nor, indeed, dare any Frenchman rebel against the received opinion of the Parisians, once it be fully de clared and universally known. But M. GUIZOT reached beyond its influence by means of the tele graph, and its long arms have enabled him to com plete his ministry with a celerity and satisfactory choice, which was evidently denied in Paris. We see no reason for joining in the wondrous in dignation of the French press at M. Guizor's getting rid of three very incapable colleagues. One of the good principles of M. Gutzon and his school is, that they deprecate and dislike the employment of medio crities and red tapiats. They would wish to govern by talent and by , the capadas. But these views neither suit the King, nor the bureaucratie, nor the Bouts party. The King wanted an easy Finance Minister, who would not quarrel with the demands of his civil list, would not insist on paying off the Five per-Cents, would not, in fact, be too honest, too economical, too patriotic. France has had two able finance ministers, HUMANN and PABST, and the King was always quarrelling with both. M. LACAVE LAPLAONE, on the contrary, suited his Majesty. He was a good, easy, pliant man, not capable of setting tie Seine on fire, and endowed with all the qualities of a courtier and a king's friend. The French public and chambers, however, require a very different sort of finance minister, and M. GUIZOT iS, it seems, resolved to satisfy them by putting his own friend, DUMON, into the . place. It is easy thus to conceive the ream= why M. LACAVE-LAPLAGNIE considers him self aggrieved, and why he looked to the court to support and avenge him against M. GUIZOT. For the interests of the nation, M. LACAVE-LAPLAGNE has been wisely got rid of. The War-office was another department, necessarily ' filled by &mediocrity, because Marshal SOULT insisted on interfering and preserving influence there. Sr. YON was a creature of the Marshal's; and neither General SCHRAM nor the Marquis DE LAPLACE would consent to take it, because they should be subordinate to SOULT'S dotage and SOULT'S temper. TREZEL is a good choice. The general's expenence in Africa will enable him to control Marshal BUGEAUD'a irre sponsible rule in Africa, which poor Sr. You dare not attempt. This change, therefore, is also much for the better. The chief surprise is to know how SOULT rid be got to agree to it. The ministry of marine concerns us more than dry other French department. Not that Englishmen or politicians can pretend to limit the French naval foree, or to require a minister who would neglect or depreciate it But there is a great deal in the tone r the nature . of appointments, and the tenor 4,mM:ructions given by the French marine minister, to soften the keen animosity towards England, and thus prevent collisions and mis understandings. Admiral Mscluu was a man unbitten by the Anglophobia of so many of his countrymen, but, at the same time, lazy and inca pable. The post was offered to Count BRESSON, but the king made him refuse. It would have been like pitting against Lord AUCKLAND and the British navy the man who had triumphed over English in terests in Spain, and in no very scrupulous way. Be sides, Count BRESSON looks to the Foreign-office in the next ministry. The Due de MONTEBELLO will probably not accept the Marine ministry, or, if he does, will do so with great reluctance, Naples being the most lucrative and agreeable of diplomatic posts. But should he accept, here will be every reason for congratulation. Son of a French hero, and married to an Englishwoman, the duke has claims to the confi dence of both countries, and possesses a high character for general ability. His acceptance, kowerer, is pro blematical, but the nominal a ppointment . will offer M. GUTZOT time to look about him. The interesting point of consideration is, however, not what colleagues M. Omar shall choose, but what hold he himself has of office. Notwithstanding the hesitation of notabilities to join him, or to wor ship what they evidently look upon as a setting sun, M. Ovum has evidently still a large share of pol l tical vitality. His very determination to get rid of three important colleagues, and his success, shows that he is, what no French minister yet has been, uncontrolled master of court and cabinet The re luctance to join him indeed may proceed from the belief, that in this very act he thwarts the King. Bat the King has more need than ever of a minister, like Gutzon, to carry through the affair of the Spanish succession ; nor tan it be his Majesty's interest to part with him. With the public, as well as with court and cabinet, M. Omar has certainly ga ined strength by his an scrupulous Spanish trium and his anti-English atti tude. His formidable an increasing body of enemies are to be found amongst his brother politicians—the eminent leaders in the chamber, men who aspire to office. All these ' many of them hidden in the r an k s o f the ministerialists, look on M. Ginzcrr's ascendancy with envy, watch every false step that he makes, to I trip him, and every crevice of his armour t o s ti c k their dagger in. We prove ourselves every day to be no blind fauteurs of M. GUIZOT. We cannot but admire, however, the ability and dexterity of his single-handed struggle against such numerous foes and such formidable rivals. Of the present aspect of his policy, and his singular attitude towards England, we shall take another opportunity of treating. THE Bishop of LONDON is one of those men who, for the very love of peace, takes naturally to oontro versy, to tun BUTLER'S illustration, " like fishes in India that are said to bavo worms in their heads, and swim always against the stream." In his anxiety to keep out of hot water he is always getting into it. In his care to avoid a difficulty, invisible to every one else, he breaks his shins over an obstacle apparent to all the world except himself. He is like the Greek philosopher, who, while gating at the stars, fell into a well. Nothing can equal his dexterity in getting into a mess, except his awkwardness in getting out of it. His public life has been a series of scrapes, in all of which he has displayed, as everybody admits, "wonderful talents for business." He adopts an opinion, ss bumpkins buy a coat, just as the fashion of it is going out, and suddenly finds himself put to des perate shifts of ingenuity to alter its cut and trim mings to what he sees other people wearing. The moment he appears as • mediator you may prophesy universal confusion. His doses of doctrine act like FAUST% devilish wine, which at first makes the com pany very jolly, but soon sets them quar relling with each other, and cutting off their own noses. His interference between high and low church men, in order To unite them and their different maggots, As long and short stacks are in faggots., _ _ . ended in his disgusting both. The most perfect type of his whole theory of life and doctrine is to be found in that immortal direction of his to the disturbed rector, on the great candle question, " that he had better have candles on the communion -table, but not light them." Tuesday night exhibited him in his favourite element of hot water, in the House of Lords. He was fairly and fast hooked by Lord MONTEAGLE, and floundered about in his attempts to extricate himself, in a manner somewhat unbecoming the dignity of the episcopal character. The Rev. Dr. THORPE was the proprietor and minister of a chapel near Belgrave•square, where he had served for more than 13 years. In 1846, the rev. gentleman, being about to leave England for a few months, appointed an assistant curate, and communi cated, although not legally bound to do so, his name, qualifications, and testimonials to the Bishop of Lots- Dori. The bishop replitd to this communication, "If Mr. (the curate), who I suppose is an Irish clergyman, has been licensed to officiate in an English diocese, I shall be ready to ad mit him into mine ; but if not, I shall be under the necessity of declining to do so." These are in substance the facts of Dr. THORPE'S petition pre suited by Lord MONTEAOLE. They amount to an episcopal declaration that no Irish clergyman shall obtain his clerical settlement, so to speak, in the dio oess of London. lie may be passed thit her; but he must first submit to a sort of clerical quarantine in another bishopric, very much as the Irish paupers are forced to do preliminary penance in the Liverpool lazaretto. The latter hare confessedly something to get rid of. But it is hard to say what taint hangs about the Irish clergyman which requires this purifi catory process, pec uli ar to Dr. BLOMFIELD. Remem bering the title of the United Church of Great Bri tain and Ireland ; bethinking one's-self of the praises which the bench of bishops has so often lavished on the Irish protestant clergy ; calling to mind the names r as a and frh lie c it le r rg E ;.m sv e , n an , o d ne Sw fee irr ls , a lrialunen uaturai cu bo r r i n o. , as of U w s e il ll sity to learn the grounds of this hard sentence of diocesan excommunication. Now, certainly, a speech of the Bishop of LONDON'S is not by any means the place to which one would go to look for reasons, in ordinary cases. But here we have no other resource. If the bishop cannot give a reason, nobody can. The bishop begins by praishig the Irish clergy. This makes one suspect he has just passed a slight upon the whole body. He tells us that this is not a new regu lation : it has been in force for 23 years. That is, the Bishop of LONDON has not lately begun insulting the sister church, but has been insulting it ever so long. This does not much mend matters. We want to know why he refuses to license Irish clergymen ; not how long he has been refusing to do so. If a man is tried for beating his wife, it would not be considered a good defence in law that he had been in the habit of beating her just as brutally for twenty years past. But the reason is coming. When Dr. C. J. BLoM FIELD was Bishop of Chester, he found it necessary, he says, to discourage the influx of Irish clergy into his diocese—first, because he thought that Irish cler gymen should stay at home, and live by the Irish church; and, secondly, because, considering the low I standard of education at Trinity College, Dublin, twenty-three years ago, it was hard to displace or stop the way of Oxonians and Cantabs for the immi grant curates from Trinity College, Dublin. As to the first of these remarkable reasons, we would respectfully ask if ever there was any com plaint from Ireland of a short supply of raw pro testant-clerical material ? Could the Irish church, like the Irish land, employ more labourers on it to a profit? If so, we are not aware of the fact. We had always thought there were quite as many protestant clergymen in Ireland as were wanted there. In fact, it has sometimes been hinted that there were more such clergymen than could find congregations. If this be so, this restrictive measure of Dr. BLOM FIELD'S could only act to stop the production of that peculiar article, the Irish clergyman, and by no means operate to the bettering or enlarging of that somewhat barren field of labour, the Irish Protestant church. Again, as to the second reason, we cannot quite see how the low standard of education at Dublin Univer sity in 1820 should operate to exclude Mr. —,the proposed curate of Dr. THORPE, in 1846. Dr. Btom- FIELD declares that the standard of such education is now raised. Then why is not the interdict, founded on the lowness of the standard, taken off before this ? Why is the effect left, when the cause is removed? Isjt that Dr. BLOMPIELD loves to contemplate causes of dead effects, and effects of dead causes, and to main tain that dead cause and dead effect are still in full vitality ? Or is it that there are other reasons at the bottom of this exclusion which the Bishop of Lots ' Dos is afraid, for the fear of odium, or ashamed, for the credit of the church, to avow honestly and manfully ? Either he has other reasons or he has no reasons. We do not mean to say that the inference in favour of the former conclusion is in evitable. Some men can get on very well with out reasons. Some even feel happier in such a state of logical destitution. We would by no means contend that good, sound, and sufficient reasons for what he does are at all indispensable to the comfort of the Bishop of LONDON. But the characteristic clause of the speech comes after these " most exquisite reasons:" " The mile neither had been nor was intended to be rigidly adhered to, and at this moment in his diocese there were!mi!! as many Irish clergymen, ordained in Ireland, as B re h m you, there was nothing in it ! I made the rule, but I didn't stick to it. Why ask my reasons then for making a rule, which I don't keep, and never did keep ? This will remind legal readers of the kettle pleas under the old rules : the first, pleading that defendant never had the kettle • the l .s e eoo i n n t that he had returned it to plaintiff ; the third, tha t there never was a kettle ; the fourth, that plaintiff gave him leave to keep the kettle ; and so on, ad in finitum. So the bishop pleads, first, he has good reasons for the exclusion ; secondly, that he does not exclude. The pleas are inconsistent. They have, indeed, that peculiar inconsistency which deserves a name of its own, and a chapter to itself in the next edition of Whately's Logic, as the " Blornieldian Sophism," by which you argue that a bad law is not bad because you break it. Then how beautifully the bishop carries oat in practice the doctrine involved in this formula! This excluded curate of Dr. Tnottres calls u po n the bishop, who has refused to license him. The bishop tells him " he may officiate during Dr. THORPE'S absence;" i. e., he will not license him as curate, but he will let him do curate's duty. Or, he will give him another curacy, thus inflicting on some less favoured district the danger he so carefully wards off from Belgravia manSthuereulwynlhthisigohcatedisn anaccTeid:laeathismopnlewthaille:co:mmdwuojnirthusotenyytat4bibstal:::Tbhinye ' this style. might have sat as an original for the cha racter in Hudibrss— The polit With morn hods than a hewn in vision ician . -- - -- —-- -- lisie," - ss War e usft oilier wan s .

Da. Bowsaw will this evening call the attention of the House at Commons to the importance of re ducing the duties on foreign wines. The motion is well timed. A m emorial ject has recendy been addressed to Lord Jona RUSSELL by the Bordeaux " Association po ur k litierte des Echanges." This body, w hich numbe r/ amongst its members most of the merchants of fi le t city, a great many of the landed proprietors of Me district, and the elite of the professional perpul d ti e , and which has the mayor for its president, in c it; Lord JOHN RUSSELL to carry on the work of his pee, d d ma ecesso utlrenon r dF ! , : r.ent o hch ttk eniw e anin bl iarta niliin orted g f ge su i c un h eralto a the United Kingdom. This is an appal from the free traders of a country where the faith in free trade is yet in its infancy, d e the minister of a country which has inscribed f eee trade on its banners, to come to their assistance, i d the only way that the minister of a foreign state ca d legitimately aid and strengthen a party hose viem of policy coincide with his own. The French go. vernment have given in a halthearted tempori sidg adhesion to the principles of free trade. By redurn e . the duties on French wines, our governmeat worni go far to make free traders of all the wine-growind countries in France. They would not merely ea ccd . rage the French government to become more de c id e d free traders by assuring them of popular supped ; they would compel them by creating a free trad e pressure of public opinion in France. In 1792 the duty on French wines was 31. 9d., and the duty on Portugnese 2s. 6d. per gallon. The annual consumption averaged about seven and a half millions of gallons. At present the duty on all kinds of wines (Cape trash excepted) is ss. 6d. per pal m The average annual consumption is rather umb er seven million, of gallons. Yet the population of Great Britain in 1792 scarcely amounted to ten rad. lion', and at present it must be fully nineteen millions. The wealth andluxury of the nation, too, have increased in, at least, an equal ratio. A glance at the history of the wine trade between 1792 and 1844 will' present the effects of heavy cm toms duties in a still more impressive yoint of vim The import duties on Foreign wines Is 1792 Were se has already been stated, 3s. 9d. per gallon on Freneh, and 21. 6d. on Portuguese • and the annual consarn} tion about seven and a h3;lf millions of gallons. In 1795 the duties on French wines were railed to 8a 6d. per gallon, on Portuguese to 58. 81d. • and in 1796 the consumption scarcely exceeded dye and a half millions of gallons ; in 1797 it fell below four millions. A further increase to 1 ls. lid. per ga ll on on French, and is. Bd. on Portuguese and Spanish wines continued the depression, for notwithstanding the increase of population and the improved style of living, the average annual consumption of the three years ending 1824 was less than fi ve and a half mil ieus of gallons. The recovery of the wine trade dates from 1825, when Mr. ROBINSON reduced the duties nearly 50 per cent. The equalisation act of the lot and 2nd of WILLIAM IV., contributed to render its condition still better, though it could have been wished that the aniform duty upon all kinds of wines had been brought about without adding Bd. per gallon to the Iduties on Portuguese and Sioanish wines. These re- Hluctions of duty, have had the effect of re storing the annual consumption of wines in this the country to a quantity little short of what it was when Ziguatc:Boripntaintimilinii. the population was about half of what it now is. Here the consumption has for several years re mained stationary, and unless a further reduction of duty is conceded is likely to remain. It is stated in the Bordeaux memorial, referred to above, that with a duty of 101. per hogshead, or is. per gallon, the sound wholesome common sorts of Bordeaux wine could be sold in London at 41d. per bottle ; the ordinary sorts (consumed by the middle classes in France) at 6d., the superior sorts at Bd., and the very best sorts at prices varying from 10d. to 4s. 23d. per bottle. That such a reduction in prices would increase consumption is apparent, from the contraryeffec a tp a ro r :l n, byuc t ed :hen w the re the ra f r ec n t g tohfat in Scot land, prices It is still more pp land, where French wines were the standing drink even of the middle classes, before the introduction of English customs duties, wine has, since the impel tior4 of the high war duties, been almost entirely superseded even at the tables of tolerably wealthy members of the middle classes, by spirits. There is every reason to believe that a bold and de cided reduction of the duties on foreign wines would augment the revenue. From Italy and Spain, u well as from France, many good palatable wines might be freely introduced, which are excluded at nor present high rate of 400 per cent. on the value of the average of wines. The impetus that would this be given to the exportation of our merchandise is ob. vious. There is nothing problematical in this cake lation : past experience has shown that at moderate prices the people of this country will drink the wines which it is known southern Europe produces in abun dance. The Bordeaux merchants lay their fingers upon the manufactured commodities of England, which they are ready to take in return either for the immediate consumption of France, or to help them in making assorted cargoes for other countries. Their wines would give us what is at present much wanted, a good return ft eight for vessels engaged in the Eng lish export of coal. The Paris journals of Tuesday make not a little merry with the telegraphic ministry that M. (hied has put together. The Constitutionnel accuses General 'Preset of being ultra-conservative, M. Jafr of being favourable to the Jesuits. The Presse objects to Gm Treed as being an engineer. And none will admit the Duke of Montebello to be more than a diplo matist. ----- A most extraordinary scene was exhibited in the I Chamber of Deputies on Monday, on the occasion of the debate upon the proposition of M. Cri-mieux, that no member of the Chamber should hold the place of director of a company, and especially of a railway company. M. Grantlia ascended the tribune and de dared that there were 69 deputies who were direc tors of railway companies. This announcement pro. duoed a scene such ea it is qaite impossible adequately to describe. The worst disorders ever witnessed in the House of Commons, or even in the House of Re- Feaentativee at Washington, were nothing to it. That we may not even involuntarily exaggerate what took place, we will give the account of it from Le Steele ; At last M.
