So much, thee, for the Moors of the isommissiosen; and now for the committee.. He found that the first commiuee was ap pointed in 1888, but the only point brought before that committee was the (natio° of elennisg, and therefore they might safely pen on to the nest, which eat in 1841. That committee d d not touch upon the ete of the National Gallery, but merely isgeired into the Dumber of peruse who visited it is c Jos with the other public cad In. isstitivion. of the metropollr. In 1850, however, • rote mitre we. unlined to legate into the subject, with power to toast gets the qoatioe of sits ; hut althoughthat con selves did not ausider the existing are . f ble to th e preservation of the picture., it yet declaimed to make any recommendstioa is the matter, as it wes In perfect igsorsoce of the new rite which the authorities wished to propose. This was in IWO, bet be bad got eßiltle too far In Wean e f his nerrative, for in 1818 and 184, teen were two sommitnes appointed to inquire isto the same subject. The late Sir K ibert Peel we on both committees, and no doubt the question of site was duly considered by them ; hut nevertheless the conclusion they tame ro was that the Nottual (lottery ought not to be if mooed from its present erection.

Now he was quite ready to admit that this committee ems to the re Glutton that it ens de eirable to accept the site which Kensington Gore offered ; but while he made that Urania' he should couple it with this obeenstion, that the committee had no other alters*. tin before them, or they might ben hesitated about giving that reentomendati on.

(Hear, bear) Pawing to the second truck of the mottos, be had now to wane whether it was desirable to combine the Na tional Gallen with the fine arts sad archaeological cautions. That question bad frequently been brought trader the eturatioa of parliament; bet more mostly by the noble• lord toe member for Strand, when he moved the vote for the British Manus. (Sir Jams Graham, No, no," the menhir foe the City of Landon.) He hogged pardon, he menet the noble lord the member f the City of Linden, not the member for Stroud—(a lesgb)—hat he was afraid Painting and the Fine Arts, nod Areas logy 'meld not be combined.

The loatituUoo commenced wl h the package of Sir Rene Slosse's collecting, and it had eines gone on Increasing In every department yeti' it had become a complete Noeh's Ark. mad he was afraid that the huddle, could not be OD al tered or ree4ered sufficiently eiternsive as to admit of the National Gallery being combined with it. Thst also was Mr. Newton's opinion, a gentleman well versed is the matter, and thoroughly competent to give ea opi nion upon the suhjeet, while the Neil of Elles mere, then whom no one wee more devoted to art And seam, hat &diked him that the beet mode of proandinir in order to arrive at a safe cuelesion was to have another sosingiation of inquiry, but this time a royal sommissios, and not a Treasury goueteelos. (Hear, hoer) It a en/red to him, however, that the National Gallery would have to remain distinct and up trate from the other institutions of the metrouth, and that the beet site for It would be Emengton Palace. The redoes of the palace were now thoroughly public; in the time of William and the early Georges they were "lead to the habit's:wept on Satardays, but grads .lly they had bet me perfectly free to the public, and now there was little or no proepeet ef either the pence or the grounds ever again hong required few the use of the eeversign.

The bill bad come down from the lime of Lords, hayloft been introduced there by his noble friend Lord Brougham, who living on the border when these marnagee took place was equally aware, with himself, of the evils which they produced. One thousand of these marriages took place last year on the Glretaa side of the border, and at least u many more tcok place on the opposite side. He could depose, as e. witness, to the evil effects produced on the morals of the community by these irregular marriages.

If it turned out teat the woman bad money the 'unsaid that the marriage wee valid ; if she had not, when its passion was walled he treated it as invalid. The eon sequesce was that there were instances where the mar riage ceremony Lal been repeated four timeserver, and the cameo( proarieution for lqamy were tomparrively rare.

FOR his zealous and enlightened exertions in im proving the Government Di•oroe Bill, Lord LYND IIURST deserves the best thanks of the community. If he haa cot done all that he would, he has done all that he could, and more than lay within the power of any other single member of the Legislature. Some thing, nay much, even if this BM were carried in its amended state, would still remain to be accomplished before the English law of marriage and divorce could be entirely rescued from the barbarism which has to long disgraced it; but as a decided step in advance— s* a valuable concession to a crying need of the time —as an suspicions commencement of a new era in that legislation which most intimately effects the moat important relation of human life—there can be no doubt that all social reformers are bound to give their cordial support to the measure which stands lot further consideration oo Thursday next. Let us state briefly the general nature of the more important alterations which his lordship has suc *ceeded in inserting. In the Bill as originally intro duoed by the CHANCELLOR incestuous adultery was, it may be remembered, the sole ground on which • wife was permitted to apply for the dissolution of the marriage tie. Lord La NDRURST, in committee, endeavoured to urge the adoption of the broad and simple principle—the only principle of equal justice —that adultery should in all cases be for the wife, as for the husband, sn incontestable ground of dissolu tion. In this he tailed. As the Bill now geode, adultery coupled with cruelty, with desertion for fee years, or with &Only, is a ground for dissolution of the marriage tie, as well as adultery coupled with incest. Can there be a stronger proof of the bar barism of our marriage laws than the fact that in the middle of the nineteenth century we aro reduced to regard this tardy nod imperfect concession as an un expected and welcome measure of reform ? The next step which Lord Mgt:tanner has been able to secure is important, not only in itself, t.ut in it■ bearings upon the general question of the pro- perty of married women. As the law now stands, when a wife is divorced from her husband—divorced, that is, a menisci et thoro—all her after-acquired earn ings—all property that may subsequently devolve upon her—is absolutely and hopelessly at the mercy of the husband. He may—and in very numerous cases he does—sweep off the whole of her bard earn ings—all that she has derived by bequest or inherit. acce—applying the proceeds, it may be, to the purpoees of vagrant dissipation, or to the use of the very mistress for whom the wife was forsaken, and by whom she has been supplanted. For this intolerable oppression no remedy was provided in the Government Bill ; it is effectually put an end to by one of the clauses introduced by Lord LYNDIICRST. To this most just and beneficial provision it is satisfac tory to find that DO opposition was offered even by the Bishop of OXFORD. Another evil of the existing law—that a woman separated from her husband cannot legally enforce any contract, or sue for the redress of any wrong, unless the husband consents that she may use his name for the purpose—is also reme died for the first time by Lord LYNDLIURST, who has inserted a clause providing that in such cases the separated wife shall deal and be dealt with to all in tents and purposes as though she were a single woman. There is yet another point. By the law as ;t stands, even in the grossest cases of wilful desertion, the abandoced wife has no claim to alimony. Lord CRANWORIII'S Bill conceded this right to her io eases where the desertion extended over fouryears— Lord LYNDHURST has redu:ed the period to two years. Such are the more important ameliorations which, should this bill pa e, Lord LT:Mlle/0T will have been the means of introducing into the English I law of marriage and divorce. In addition to this, he made a gallant but Intl:fewest attempt to pot so end I to the national scandal of that fatnou+ form of action by which the wrongs of the aff,ctions are weighed in the same scale as the disputes of the market, in which the character of the wife may be blasted for ever by the result of a process to which she is no party, in which, though her all is at stake, she cannot utter a syllable or raise a finger on her own behalf—in which, as recent and notorious events have proved, she has no protecticn against that vilest of all calla-ions, the collusion between the husband who would purchase divorce by dishonour, and the paltry rake who would pay for the eclat of the imputation, though incapable of the manhood of the act. The irresistible argu ments of Lord LYNDILUB.ST on this point were feebly met by the suggestion that as actions of mini. con. were now principally resorted to not so mach for the sake of damages as with a view to divorce, they would practically fall into desee• trade sow that the charge in the law no longer to quires the verdict of a jury u a necessary fonnua tict for further proceedings. It also seems to have be et considered u a sort of encroachment on the bich. right of a Briton that the poor man should be pre. chided, if wronged by a rich adulterer, from mik.cg a legal market of his own shame. The newt its: the action of trim. eiin. is still likely to form part Led parcel of the law of the lend. The mock eulogy of ALFIERI is not yet inapplicable. England has tot yet ceased to be the country where •every coms:o• dity has its ma•ktt price, and horns the L.gh tit of all." So much for the Bill; and now a word on tied.. bate. Apart from Lard LYNDHI2II:4'S tear and brief statement. it has one feature—the oppoe:::oe the Bishop of OXFORD. A more diecreditable opposition —one true de. meging, not to its adversaries, but to its strhor—.( is indeed difficult to conceive. We can imagine, two if we cannot comprehend, the state of mind which might lead a zialous theologian to oppose a n•anifest social improvement on the dubious authority of a disputed text. We should undoubtedly regard the •ictim of a conscientiousnees so morbid as het* fitted for a college of casuists than an assembly of statesmen; but, while pitying the weakness ut . the judgment, we might almost respect the integrity of the motive. But this is not the posi'ion taken by the Bishop of OXFORD. He admits that the text I. free from doubt, but he disputes the policy of acting upon it. He confesses that, '• after giving his best eittention to the subject, he cannot doubt that, according to the words of our LORD, marriage may be dissolved for the act of adultery;" bat admitting this, he regards it "as • matter for further consideration whether it is expedient to afford facilities for the dissolteion of marriage even for adultery itself." Surely this is strange doctrine for a Christian bishop. The Founder of Christiani:y, the Divine denouncer of all class die. tioctions between rich and poor, declares without limitation the right law of matrimony to be 'hat an act of adultery shall dissolve the marriage bond. The law of England declares that such dissolution 'hall be a privilege which none except the rich can buy. All Christian people may procure divorce on the ground of adultery, says CHRIST; no Christian people con so procure it except tholes who ei.n p►y down 1,0001. in cash, says the law of England. The law of CHRI T is one thing, the law of England another ;and • Christian bishop comes forward to tell us that he prefers the law of England. A-d why? Because in his opinion it is more conducive to morality than the law of CHRIST. The question with the b:ehop, as he himself states it, is "whether, in the whole, the morality of the nation would be promoted by landing such facilities as this bill contemplates for the dieselu•ice) of marriage d vincula even for the act of adultery." In other words, whether the liberty of divorce as (according to the Bishop's co an admit sicn) proclaimed by CHRIST, might not be found lee favourable to Christian morals thee that superstitious strictness originating in the Popish error (which the Bishop, as a prelateot the Anglican Church, is sworn to denounce) of regarding marriage as a sacrament. Is there not something eomewhere written about than who "melee the teaching of CIIRIST of none effect through their traditions"? and do nut these words seem applicable to a case like this, where a Christian prelate on the ground of • partial and unjust law, founded on an obsolete heresy, stands forth to deprive a Cho istian people of that rational liberty of divorce for which the land groans, which the Fathers of the Reformation cocci di d, which CHRIST himself is ad- mitted to have proclaimed. The conduct of the Queen, on the occasion of the contretemps at the levee, was exactly what might have ben expected from her excelent sense and presence of mind. When informed by Lord Chinn. don of what bad happened, her 411- jeety at once replied :—" I.et the go ntl man be admitted; I shall be happy to receive him in any costume." REDUCTO TO FACT.—The Times, which began, in a fit of horror, on Thursday, with a tale of a frock coat and yellow waistcoat,—of a nioraing undress which it compared to a shooting jacket and ehepherd a plaid trims, re,—bas now bee', " reyiea(ed to state that the American gentleman to whom seirittaioa was refused to her Majesty's lAN ea on Wednesday last is a Professor in the Military Academy at West Point, and that he wore, on that occasion, his official costume, a t lue dresecoat with butror s c f the Engineer Corps, blue pantaloons, white waistcoat, black cock, and a common hat. It was objected cia the part of the Master of the Ceremonies that in this attire, wearing a Week stock, with nn sworn and to dress hat, he could not pass the Queen. The objection was made in a manner exceedingly kir,d and courteous, but the Ulla Nv 8 express, and then was no discretion to relay it. In this poet. tion Mr. I) dine, who was about to present two other gentlemen in company with the Pretence referred to after having several tint , s urged the official character of the dress objected to, feeling pained at the position in which his countryman was placed, among entire strangers, and in a place to which he wee entirely unaccustomed, offered to re turn home with him, in which suggestion his compa nions joined.
