M the end of last week a hatch of papers relating to the affairs lon were resented to both houses of parliament by command of her NIAJEsTY. To appreciate these extraonlinary ellwuments at their just value, it will be necessary to cast a glance backwards for a few mouths. On the 22nd and 23rd of July. 18.50. the select committee of the House of Commons on the affairs of Ceylon passel) sundry resolutions to the effect that much of the evidence they had extorted from wit nesses was of " a private and confidential nature, the publication of which would create dissensions in Ceylon injurious to the public interests;" that in their opinion the attempt to separate the select and confidential portions from the remainder was .4 open to insuperable difficulties ;" and that, in consequence. no further evidence should be reported to the house. The third and final report of the committee, accordingly. instead of reporting the evidence to the house, simply recommends that the attention of government should be coiled to it, and that " a royal commission should be appointed to proceed to Ceylon, to ascertain what changes may be nevessary for the better goveniment of that colony, unless some step he forthwith taken by the government which may obviate the necessity of further investigation." 'flee papers presented to parliament last week show what have been theate " taken by government to obviate the necessity of further investigation." Lord ToURINoToN has been recalled, and left at liberty to resume the railway and agricultural pursuits which were supposed to have pre-eminently qualified him for governol en a colony; Sir GEoItGE A NDERSON, whose antecedents warrant fair hopes of his effici ency, has been appointed to succeed Lord TonniNo. TON ; Sir EstessoN TFNNENT hits been removed from the post of colonial secretary, but sent to govern a dependency where he can do little harm. relegated, like another Ns PoLEoN, to St. Helena; Mr. M'CAUTIIT has been nominated to the vacant post—an appointment obnoxious, perhaps', to a charge of nepotism, but mnl listed by the general confidence reposed in Mr. Wesirritr. in Ceylon; Mr. Wylie:House, like Sir EMERSON TENNENT, has been removed to another sphere of action; Mr. SELBY (Attorney-General), and Colonel lilt tYIMoOKE, are allowed to resume their official situations. after having been subjected to what is technically termed "a wigging; and that unlucky and blundering cat's-paw, Captain Wsysos, is to be brought before a court-martial. In making these arrangements, the noble Secretary of State for the Colonies presents himself, it must be allowed, in an imposing attitude. He resembles ! nothing so much as the Archangel, in MILTON'S " Paradise Lost," dispensing justice tempered with mercy — awarding their merited dooms to a whole company of offending ADAMS, without one EVE among them—assuaging the despair of exile by in dicating the means through which the banished may work out their re-habilitation. In all this, however, there is more of skilfid artis- Heal display and stage trick, than of substantial justice. The "steps taken by government" do sat "obviate the necessity of further investigation." The abuses which the CZ3lon committee was appointed to inquire into, the wrongs which government were called upon to redress, related to the inhabitants of Ceylon. It was alleged—it has been proved—that a system of oppressive taxation, alien to the habits of the ('ingalest. was suddenly and without previous notice forced upon them; that some insignificant dis turbances. confined to a very narrow district, excited, by this blameable policy, were magnified into acts of conspiracy and rebellion ; and that to suppress the pseudo-rebellion, measures of the most atrocious, and unwarrantable severity were resorted to. Rd these grave considerations are utterly ignored in the government awards against its peccant officials. The wrongs and complaints of the Cingalese arc passed over without notice; the officials arc punished or reri mended (as the case may be) simply for indecorous squabbles among themselves, having a tendency to make the world suspect that people in office may be mere ordinary mortals, and rather weak and vulgar mortals into the bargain. Government has evinced a kmu sense of decorum, but little regard for justice. Not the least remarkable feature of these proceed ings is this. The evidence taken by the committee of last session related partly to the public affairs of • Ceylon, partly to private and confidential matters, in r which the public (it has been alleged) have no con cern. The committee thought the former sufficiently important to require publication, could it have been separated front the latter. Government, however, in Tht Tprt passing sentence, leaves out of view entirely the weighty evidence that concerned the public, ana pro ceeds exclusively on what is represented as eon , temptible private scandal and backbiting. More than this: the papers presented last week to parliament contain representations from the officials, which show distinctly the nature of their reciprocal criminations. Government has. in feet, given publicity to the private and confidential" slander over which the committee decorously sought to throw a veil, while it persists in keeping secret the important revela tions regarding public matters which the com mittee wished (or pretended to wish) to give to the world. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. THIS DAY. WORSHIP-STREET. ROMITAT FROM A CHILD.— E. Proper was charged with stealing 60 yards of linen, value 3/. lOs., the property of Me -era . Mrs. nkhorn and Son, King-street, Cheapaide. Last evening, Ann Girder, aged 11, was carrying the goods mentioned from the warehouse of the firm to her home. when the prisoner forced her into a doorway, in a dark part of Pitficld-street, Holton, and, snatching the parcel, ran off. Two tradesmen, whose attention Iva. directed to the prisoner by the cries of the girl, pursued him until he ran into the arms of a police-otheer in the City-road, when he dropped the property at his feet, and said it way " only a lark.' lie now declared that all the parties were mis taken. Fully committed for trial. In fact the whole of these proceedings are a pal pable and disgraceful juggle. The members of the committee connected with government, or friendly to it, made the private scandals mixed up with the evi dence a pretext fur concealing the whole from the public, and leaving government to deal with it. .Nlinisters have availed themselves of this suppression' of the evidence virtually to deny the existence of gross and clamant oppression and misgovernment, and to attribute the very inadequate punishment they have inflicted on real offenders, and the unmerited rebukes they have administered to innocent parties who have incurred their dislike, to trumpery breaches of official etiquette. The suffering community of Cey lon have thus been denied alike redress for the past and seesrity far the future. The very reseripts addressed by government to its officials prove their own falsehoOd and hollowness. Lord ToItRINGIoN is told that hi, conduct has been , urn xecptionable , that his administration of Ceylon I has been well-meaning, wise, and successful; but that he must be deposed because he had a set of refractory, unmanageable subordinates. Mr. SELBY on the other hand, is said to have told a deliberate falsehood, with a view to east obloquy upon the governor, and yet he is reinstated in office with * gentle reprimand. Is there nny, one so purblind and gullible as to believe that ministers would have de prived themselves of the services of an able and trustworthy governor because he had been plagued with unruly wubordinates? or that they would have continued in office a man capable of such conduct as they have attributed to Mr. SELBY? 'the hugger-mugger huddling upof the committee's inquiry—the active tart taken in that transaction by the late chairman of the East India Directors, the Under Secretary fur the Colonies, the Secretary of the Board of Control, and the mysterious and in explicable awards of government, all afford room foe the wont suspicions. Unless the whole matter is cleared up by prompt, frank, and unreserved expla 9ations, a distrust in thejustice and integrity loth of government and parliament, that cannot fail to ren der both powerless f u r good, is inevitable. The inquiry must be renewed, and the whole history of Lord TORRINGTON'S administration of Ceylon re vented to the public; and this inquiry must be ex tended to the secret springs and machinations by which the previous inquiries have been brought to such an unsatisfactory and discreditable termination. If there be any member of parliament who is still sufficiently confiding and credulous to believe that there has been no wilful suppression of the truth, no screening of gross delinquencies., no wreaking of offi cial spleen and vindictiveness on unoffending indivi duals. there is a very simple process by which lie can put the matter to the test. The evidence given to the committee of last session by Captain ALBERT WATsON, Mr. SELBY, and Sir ANTHONY OLIPHANT, contain none of those alleged betrayals of confidence of which we have heard so much. 'Their publication can in no way militate against the future efficiency of government. Let ministers be called upon to pre sent the notes of this portion of the evidence to par liament : we are content to peril the decision of the question, whether further inquiry is necessary, upon them. Until full light is thrown upon the iniquitous and appalling events which have occurred in Ceylon I within the last three years, there can be no security lagainst the continuance of the grossest misgovern ment in that important dependency; there is every risk of the island's being thrown into a state of chronic anarchy that can only be kept in check by a ruthless despotism. HORRIBLE NICRDER AT NEMPNETT, NEAR Dlt I STOL. A murder which, for wantonness and the revolting mode of committal has rarely been surpassed in the annals of crime, was committed on Saturday last, at Nempnett, in the county of Somerset, a small village lying off the high road from Bristol to Bridgewater and the West of England. The victim was an old man, 76 years of age. named William Wilkins, and his wife who is in her 71st or nail year, was so maltreated by the ruffians who killed her husband, that her life lies in great peril. Wilkins hail followed for years the occupation of a farm labourer, but latterly had, with the assistance of his wife, rented a cottage at one end of the village, in which he kept • small huckster'. shop, and being a man of good character was supported by the surrounding farmers sod others, and was thus enabled to earn a livelihood. It would seem that the few pounds worth of good. possessed by him, had tempted the cupidity of an idle fellow named John Wiles, who had worked for a couple of days as a smith in the vil lage ; for circumstances which haye come to light, place it almost beyond doubt that he with a companion named Smith, funned a plan to rob the house. and that while engaged in so doing, Wyles, without the slightest resistance having been offered to him, or any attempt matte by them to raise an alarm, fell upon the aged couple, whom he knocked dowu with is bludgeon, having an iron nob at the end of it, and then beat and chopped them over their heads and twrson. until he thought they were dead, when, having torn off the old woman's pocket, and stolen property of the value of sonic 12s. or I d a., he decamped with his companion to the neighbouring village of Blagdon, to which they were tracked through some remarkable features in Wilea's foot marks, and taken into custody at • public-house, where they had just sat down to regale themselves with bread and cheese and liquors. The horrid atrocity was first discovered by a female who lived in one of several houses which closely surround the cottage. She had seen the aged couple alive and well at 9 o'clock, and soon after 10 o'clork, having occasion to go back to their shop, she found them lying on the ground in sensible, and emend with bbsid. On the heads of both were several terrible wounds, and the old woman's hands and arms were cut in a frightful manner, probably in her attempts to ward off blows aimed at her with a spittle, which I Was found in the room covered with blood. A broken Italian iron and the bludgeon lief ire mentioned were like wise found on the ground also stained with blood. As soon as the outrage was discovered a messenger was sent to Combo Martin for a surgeon, who promptly attended and did what he could for them, but the old man died ..f his wounds the same night, and but small hopes are entertained of the re covery of his partner. As soon as the tact became known to him, Mr. Adding ton, a county justice, attended at the odd woman's bedside ' and took her deposition in the presence of the prisoners, and happily she was enabled to identify theta both, and to swear to a penknife found upon Wiles as having been stolen from her. The injured woman deposed that at about eight o'clock on the morning of Saturday the two prisoners came to her house. Wiles asked for is loaf of bread. She did not give him one, upon which he turned round and asked the other, John Smith, fur some money to pay for the hood. The young man in reply said that he had not got any to give him, and Wiles then struck her (witness) a severe Mow with a stick. As well as she could we, there were twolarge Ikon caps on the end of the stick. He struck her down, and then he went and fetched a spade and struck her with it. He struck her a gnat many times with the stick, and made use of some very bud language, after which he struck her with the spade. The prisoner Smith stood by the door just ' coming into the house. Her husband was at this time sitting on a bench in the corner of the kitchen, and the prisoner Wiles went up to him soul struck him two or three times while he was so sitting, and then dragged him out from where he was into the room. Wiles struck the deceased a great many times with the brow Italian iron, which he battered as it now appeared by the force of the blows which he struck with it. She hail scoured it in the morning, when it had no bruise in it ; the battering was caused by the violence used. Wu quite sure that the two prisoners were the men who inflicted the inju ries on her and her husband. Had seen the elder prisoner Wiles before, for he had worked for some days at Ilyatt's carpenter's shop as a blacksmith. (A penknife was here produced to the wanes...) The penknife produced was her property, and was in her pocket that morning when the two prisoners came to the house. Her pocket at that time was on her person, from which Wile% tore it off. There were some shillings in it besides the knife. Knew the penknife well, us she had hail it for the last 20 year.. When she first had it there was a silver label on it, with her name, but it had been worn out. Believed that there were two half-crown pieces in her pocket, but was not certain, sin as to swear to it. Could not say whether the younger pri soner (Smith) struck many blows, as she was on the floor and could not see him all the time. Could not say whether he came into the house or not. The old man (Wiles) struck her with a stick all over her head, and afterwards he struck her on the head with the spade, when she was lying on the floor. Ile also struck her husband with the spaae when be was sitting in the corner, but atterwrrels, when he was down on the floor of the kitchen, he struck him with the Italian ironing thing. On Monday and Tuesday the magistrates proceeded to hear the charge against the prisoners, with a new to their committal for trial, and a very large amount of excitement prevailed. Indeed, ever since the discovery of the murder numbers have Hocked into the village, from all parts, to view the cottage and hear the examination. Mr. Jakeman, the surgeon, deposed to the nature of the injuries. Other witnesses were called, and spoke to having seen the prisoners near the village on the morning of the' murder; and Clark, the constable of Blagdon, proved that when he searched them he found about sa. in silver on each of them. Wyles hail likewise some packets of tobacco, a penknife, razor, and pair of spectacles. The depositions haring been read over in the presence of the prisoners, Wiles was taken out of the room, and Smith having been cautioned, proceeded to make a statement, in which he denied that he had struck either of the old people, but admitted that he stood by while Wiles did so, and that he had afterwards received holf of the pmeeeds of the rob bery. It also appeared, from his account of the murder,. that it was no less deliberate than cowardly. The prisoner Wiles was then called in, and asked if he wished to say anything in answer to the charge. He said he hoped the old lady would get well, as she would then tell the right thing, which she was not firm enough to do now. lie would make his defence in gaol. On Tuesday the coroner for that division of the county, Mr. Uphill, commenced an inquest, but after the jury had been sworn and viewed the body, he adjourned it till Wed nesday, the 19th inst., so as to have • post »torten' examina tion, and to give a chance for Mrs. Wilkiw's recovery. The prisoners have been removed to Shepton Mallet gaol. Padd' FALKIRK BrEcns.—The nomination of candi dates to supply the vacancy in the representation of these burghs took place on Tuesday. The only candidates were Mr. Baird and Mr. Loch. Very little excitement was ap t, and but a small number of persons were present during the proceedings. Mr. W. Forbes, M.P., proposed Mr. Baird, and Mr. Cairns, of Hamilton, seconded the no mination ; whilst Mr. Loch was nominated by Mr. J. Wil son, of Dundyvan, seconded by Mr. Dawson. Mr. Baird then addressed the electors, chiefly in explanation of his principles u a free-trader and a friend of education. Mr. Loch next addressed the constituency, and was greatly cheered. The show of hands was declared to be in favour of Mr. Loch, when a poll was demanded fur Mr. Baird, and fixed to take place on Thursday (this day).

An active and energetic committee was appointed at the meeting lately held in Brecon fur the purpose of considering the subject ; and they arc now taking the necessary steps to ensure the success of the undertaking. By the proposed railway not only would a direct communication be opened with London, but by means of the Shrewsbury line it would be effected with the great towns and markets of the North of England.

IRELAND. Dr/mix, Fri+. 12. The only property offered for sale yesterday in the Encumbered Estates Court was that of George llanly, in the count• of Itos•ummon. It contained 407 acres, at present let for I.$M. per annum, subject to Tn. 3s. 6d. quit rent and rent charge. Griffith's valuation is 183/. 155.. and the poor law valuation 142/. It was purchased by Mr. Horatio Nelson Lauder, for 2,330/., being 17 years' purchase on the present net letting value of lel. After repeated adjournments, the coroner's inquest on the persons killed by the falling of the mill at Beers Bridge. near Belfast, has at length terminated. A majority of the jury returned a verdict that " they were of opinion that Robert Boyd and John Magee were wilfully and feloniously guilty of the improper construction and erection of the said mill." A inino rity of the jury—ten out of twenty-two—came to a different conclusion, namely : Although we consider the falling of the said mill an accidental circum stance, we cannot avoid expressing our opinion that sufficient care was not taken in its erection, although we do not consider that that neglect amounts to criminality." The solicitors for Mr. Boyd have en tered a caveat against the finding of the majority, de signating it both " illegal and absurd," and caution ing the coroner, Bernard Ward, Esq., not to issue his warrant on it, as that " course would manifestly be illegal." UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL. FRUITS OF TIIE UNIVERSITY COMMIsAtoN.—A correspondent says:—" The Greek professor at Cambridge propose. to lecture on Thucydide.. and that admission to these tortures should be free—for the first time. It is to be hoped they will be well attended, for though probably they may neither be profound nor very ingenious, they will air isredlv be instructive and useful to the ordinary student. This lirat fruit of the University Commission will, it is trusted, be followed by other reforms in ' institutions so perfect that they needed no reform at all."'

Two o'CLotic. it of business this morning shares looked well, and attained a still higher range, but, on the development of a downward tendency in the English funds, this market quickly sympath i sed, and prices temporarily underwent a sensible depres sion. The market has since rallied, however, and now appears good again. York and North Midlands arc rather lower, in consequence of the announce ment that the dividend will be only 10s., instead of 12s. 6d., as was by many expected. On the whole, there has been a large business, most descrip tions continuing in good demand, and further activity has been imparted by the arrangements now in active progress for the settlement of the fortnight's account, this being " ticket-day."

Notwithstanding the support afforded by tho presence of the government broker as a purchaser, the market this morning experienced a sensible decline, Consols receding to 961 for cash, from which depression prices have only partially re covered. :Rime degree of caution was induced by the apprehensions entertained in sonic quar ters of a movement at the meeting of the Dank Board to-day, but the chief cause of the depres sion seems to be found in the rumours which were circulated to the effect that a defeat of ministers on Mr. Disraeli's motion is not improbable, in consequence of the falling away of the Irish members, who are disgusted with Lord John Russell's conduct on the papal question. Attention is also directed to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's financial statement, which will be made to-morrow, parties about to operate preferring to wait the result of the details to be given on that occasion. How ever, the market now looks rather better. Consols opened 964 to fur the account, and after being depressed to 961 for cash, and 96! for time, are now quoted 96 to and 96S to a respectively. The prices of business are: Three per Cent. Consols, MI, ; ditto for account 96a, i• Reduced Three per Cents., 971, ; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 981„ 99, 981; Long Annuities, 1860,71; Bank Stock, 215, 2151. Exchequer Bills are steady at 578. and 5-Is. prem. India Bonds are looking down. The large bonds murk 655. and 625. prem.; ditto small, 613.4. In the foreign stock market the settlement of the account is in progress, but the onlv stock in which any material change is to be noted is Spanish, in which very little confidence is felt as to the capabi lities of the Spanish budget. Yesterday lousiness was done in the Active Bonds, as high as 29Z, but they receded to 201, in the after noon, and to -day the market opened still lower, prices falling as low They are now slightly better, however, and have rallied to about 19&.

The fixed issues of the Irish banks heing 6,354,491 t, it follows they were below the amount 1,571,8U1., with specie in hand to cover issues for 1,360,599/. besides.
