Ledru-Rollin, these two propositions are exinms; they require no proof; they have only to be an nounced. But they lead to this consequence • that the re presentation cannot be true if the elections are not free, free not only from all force, but from al! influence except discus sion and concert amenget the electors, that is, amongst the citizens. That a country about to vote should be organised by law, established by abuse of suthotity, or impelled to act by terror, appears to us about the same thing. In these cases, there is the representation o: a party, and not of the nation. The duty of the provisional or definitive govcromenl, in the circumstances in which the nation, when consulted, ought to ensemble to reply, is to guarantee to insure the liberty of all and each; to maintain order in the movement, and public peace in agitation, to prevent there being any attempt on the part of the majority against the right of toe minorities. Ex cess in the accomplishment of this duty must not be called dictatorship, but tyranny. These are elementary truths, and we are astonished that they could possibly hare bean mis understood. But by the side of the duty of the government, there is that of the citizens. Liberty has not been deposited in the hands of the men who temporsiily exercise power; no one is charged with the task of measuring it out to the nation with more or lees liberality, more or tem parsimony. Let each man therefore resolutely maintain his right; let him, for more confidence awl more safety, add tr the strength which is peculiar to himself, the strength of association; let committees protect and defend with energy the common liberty ! We beheld with joy the old parties fall to the ground; we should see with grief flow arm spring up. Yet, if the provisianal government places itself forward as a party; I if its agents in the departments have in their committves unlimited powers; if they are to respect neither the im moveability of magistrates, nor the election of municipal council*, nor the wishes of the populations, what remain* to us? Something more than a rainiaterial circular will be necessary in order to make us change our sentiments and conduct. From the first day we hare demanded a sincere representation of all rights, all interests, all wants ; what we wanted then, we want still. Penetrated with the grandeur of the work to which the nation is coiled, we cannot com prehend that an attempt should be made to leave out of the social action any one class of citizens, any more than to abandon one's own right. To the national assembly it will belong to resolve the problem, more complicated than diffi cult, of the regeneration of the country. Let the country ean• tribute freely and sincerely to form it ; let there be the na tural representatives of its interests ; interest of liberty, order, comfort, work, grandeur, strength, glory. We shall aid in that result with all our strength; and w e repeat here, what we have already written. It shall not depend on us that it be not said at home and abroad, the national auembly is France. The Ik bats has the following on the necessity of such a line of conduct in all persona as wouid lead to a restoration of public confidence: Since we entered on this redoubtable cri-is in which we Ohl are, we have not ceased to preach and recommend con fidence, confidence in the acts of the government when they appeared to us worthy of it; in every case, confidence in our .elves, in the indestructible foundations of somery, in the ele ments of order, security, courage, which our cauntry ought to find in the very tri tin which it in d on to pass through. If then thin public confidence, which is today more neer". nary than ever, seems aloattou re-establishing itself ; if it ap pears at moments to totter and to doubt, on whom lies the fault ? Not on us, assuredly. But confidence is like all the sentiments of human nature—it desires to he free. It does not exist, it can only exist on this coitlittion. In ancient times, when the oracles did not speak according to the de sires of those who interrogated them, their replies were dic tated to them ; but did they say greater truth, on that ac count? In the middle ages, when the saints did not satisfy the prayers of their worshippers, their images were beaten: but did that render wishes more efficacious ? It is the same with confidence. Why doe, it not come quicker? Because, in-teal of allowing it to put itself in movement of ito own ac e, rI, attempts are made to force it to progress. It is only an automaton that can be made to ranee thus; and human creatures arc emnposed not only of flesh and bonen, but ale° of Fusions and sentiments. At present we see that those who do not reconcile themselves quick enough with new words and new forms arc jecrind We have na inclination on our part to reply in the same tore. It is very easy to make dissertations en what in called the fear of words ; and to express pity "for those good people, those fathers of families accustomed to live in a marrow circles of re lations and friends " and who allow thematleen to be dazzled by flashes. Unfortunately these good people, these good fathers of families, compote a somewhat notable portion of society. They have done so since the commencement of the world, and will probably do so to the end. Many among them disquiet themselves but little with respect to political forms, but there are other things fur which they disquiet themselves prematurely; we de-ire to believe that words create more fear than they can create evil. But, Ist it be :Aid, is there not such or such language which brings with .t a cdrtege ut sini.ter souvenirs? We np.oke just no no of new wo.rolto, but we deceived ourselves. Unfortunately they are net new—this language welch we find today in the jour nab, or in the ministerial circulars, is not new; it is written in characters too famous in the pages of our history. Why, then, go there to seek it, since it is desired to efface what it meant ? We also ardently desire that confidenez may be re. sotablished ; to co-operate in this work would he the interest even if it were nut the duty of all; but once again the first condition, not only of the niecerity, bat of the tfficacitrunner. of this co-operation is liberty. The Presm alluding to the financial crisis, says : The financial crisis which "serails hart at present re sembles in many respects that which last year so gravely dis turbed England. At bottom, our situation is better, and consequently the remedy which was eflicacicus there will be still more so here, on condition that it is applied in time. In cones qucnce of the purchase of corn, gold was rapidly da• 'parting from England, and the Biiik Bill of 1844 presented an invincible otstacle to the continuation at discounts at the momeut when they were most required. What was the con- I duct of the English government? It authorised the bank to put ..side the bill of 1841, and to continue to issue notes, even when it should not poises' the amount of specie required by law. In England, bank-notes are a legal tender—that i., no one can refuse them in pas went. That simple measure was sufficient, as from the moment that it was known publicly that the bank was no longer restricted in its opera tions, confidence revived, and the bank had no need to avail itself of the faculty which the government had placed at its disposal. We said just now that the situation is better in France than it wan in England. In fact, capital amongst us has not emigrated; it remains here as it was a month back, ouly it is hidden, end no longer circulates. Such potions as hold hank notes hasten to eh-insto them at Paris arid elsewhere, against specie. Hence the great falling-off in the metallic reserve of the bank, and the :arge remittal of crown-pieces to its branch establishm-ms. In con sequence of this, discounts must ho restricted, since the 'seek cannot expose itself to the position of not being able any longer to pay its notes. But to restrict the discounts at this moment would he an immense evil, as nestle hail business more need of aid. How is that to be prevented ? By doing something analogous to what was effected in Engiend. The I means of increasing the discounts would be by augmenting the metallic reserve, and that could he best brought about by making the bank note a legal tender. The offices of the bank being no longer beseiged for specie, since every one would be sure of being able to make his payments with the representative sign of specie, discounts could he made on s large scale. The bank note, it is said, would be depreciated. Why so ? Would it not be guaranteed by the metallic reserve, which would increase in place of diminishing at the bank, and by the amount of goad secu rities constantly discounted, and which, falling successively due, will without ceasing renew the available resources? What we demand is far less grave than what M. Gamier l'ages, a few days back, decreed relative to the saviags batiks. After having flung down the hsrricules which im peded the circulation in the streets, those which restrict credit must also he set aside.

The Queen had received the peti tion of the journalists against the suspension of the constitution, in a manner which excited lively hopes among the liberal party. Her Majesty is repre- I sented as deriving secret satisfaction at the attacks made on her present ministers. A ministerial crisis was consequently talked of. The arrival at I. arthagena of the Duke and Duchess d'Aumale, and of the Prince and Princess de Join ville, with their children, was announced to have taken place on the 4th instant, and it was farther stated that they had sailed thence, to join their rela tives in England. The following is an extract of a private letter from Carthngena, dated the 6th: On the evening of Saturday last, the Ith inst , *butt four o'clock, a French steamer-of-war, called, I think, the Solon, and which attends on the Prince de Joinville, Come into this harbour. The captain sent a message immediately to the consul to come off; but the ctiquet'e being that an officer of his rank should come ashore and wait upon the corml, the latter declined to accede to the message under the pretext of illness. A second message immediately arrived at the consulat , , in compYianca with which the consul instantly went off and found on board the Duke d'Aumale and the Prince de Joinville, w:th their wives and children, uithont aides-de-camp or retinue. beyond, I believe, two or three servants. Having receive,: the intelligence in Afetca of the occurrences iu Paris, they immediately left and cams here for more specific intelligence. AS being confirmed by the informa , ion of the consul, in a veil , few hones the steamer weighed anchor, and stood away for she westward, destined for England. . . . I' have likewis heard, that on the arrival of the news in Algiers, the arn'y and the squadron there were anxious to espouse the cause of the fallen princes, it. opposition to the nation, and wished to pronounce in that sense, hut the princes having opposed the p‘. vilous step, they yielded to their fate, without involving in it any whom per sor.al attachment might have induced to share :heir fortune or sustain their cause.

Arrwooo should have been printed. Sir G. GREY having intimated his opinion that the writ ought to issue at once, a debate involving some personalities, and of some duration, ensued; but after mutual explanations, Lord PALMERSTON expressing a dif ferent opinion from that entertained by Sir G. GREY, the amendment for delaying the issue of the writ was agreed to.—Mr. WALPOLE moved the second reading of the Election Recognisinces Bill, its object being to remove the anomalies consequent upon the decisions of the examiner, who, in some instances, had overlooked an informality in the manner of taking recognisances altogether, but en ite discovery had called upon other parties to amend, by placing all parties on an equal footing, and thus enabling them to proceed with their petition.. Mr. SpOONER moved, by way of amendment, to leave out all the words after the word " that" in the enacting clause, and to add the following :—" That the orders referring the petitions presented against the returns of members to this house for the boroughs of Bodmin, Cheltenham, Lei- center, and Walsall, the city of Dublin, and the county of Longford, to the general committee of election, which petitions are mentioned or referred to in the said bill, be discharged, and that no fur ' ther proceedings be taken on the said petitions." After some debate the house divided, on the question that all the words after " that " be omitted, the num bers being 126 to 124, majority 2,—when a second division took place, on the question that the words proposed by Mr. SPOONEIt be inserted, the motion be ing negatived by a majority of 87, the numbers being 166 to 78. Hy this decision the clause proposing to enact that with respect to the places mentioned in the schedule :melt in Mr. SPOONER'S amendment) the petitioners might enter new recognisancee, was deprived of all the words dependent upon that," and inasmuch as the hour of six had arrived,—the bill thus mutilated was left to be taken up, as an order, this day.

In another page will be found accounts from I'aris to talon yesterday. The following is the communica tion of our correspondent, since received, with news to mail hour last evening. PARIS, WEDNESDAY, 5 P.M. I mentioned in my letter of this morning some tumultuous demonstrations which were made last night in the Quartier St. Denis. The city is far from tranquil to-day. Numerous bands of men, in blouses, have been parading the Boulevards with flags, and singing the Marsaill rise. Same have been displaying the flag cf Henry V. These manifestations pass unnoticed. There is no public force ; neither poiiec or military is available. The national guard do not interfere. The streets and thoroughfares are everywhere obstructed by crowds, collected round individuals, who either harangue tht m on the science of gin ernment, or un some other equally edifying topic. The financial crisis becomes worse. The Threes fell to-day at one moment to 45, closing for 48. No one will do business for account—all is for cash. The Fives have fallen to 69. Railways in proportion : Orleans to 6so, and Northern to 32:7. Ganneron's bank stopped payment to-day; °thin are expected to stop to-morrow. The Anew,/ dee IVlnds announces that the house of Estienna anal Thiqt: de le t'llaume has suspended payment. lt w-s at this banking-house that the commercial 1,;11; of the, great contrite:tors for building were usually d &counted. The exasperstion is extreme against M. Ledru Rollin, to whoSe circular a large part of this mischief is ascribed. A report is zirculats.d within the last few hour- , , that he has been induced to retire, and is to be succeeded by M. de Cormenin. I fear this is too good to be true. There was a meeting yesterday evening of the Central Club of the Republic, attended by 500 persons, at which it was decided to give the provisional government its support, on the condition of postponing the epoch of the elections, and continuing meanwhile to hold its present dictatorship,—and that, otherwise, the club would iy-e every means of overturning it. It has adopted the motion of M. lilanqui, its president, to the effect of inviting all the other clubs to unite in this demand. The Club of the Sorbonne, of which the celebrated Professor Michelet is president, has adopted regulations similar to those of the former club of Jacobins. The election of the c fficere of the National Guard, which was fixed for the 18th, has been postponed by the provisional government to the 23rd. The Air/inner!, in making the announcement, says that this teentution has been come to in conse quence of the difficulties presented by the fusion of the companies of Grenadiers and Volligenrs into the battalions, and the division of the legions into eight companies. The general belief, however, appears to he that the postponement is in conse quence of its having been discovered that the elec tions, notwithstanding the efforts of the government, were likely to go in favour of the moderate party. The governrnont hopes that, by filling up the ranks with its adherents, it will be able to get its partizans appointed. Two meetings took place on Tuesday night last, to choose candidates for the rank of officer of the Ist and '2nd legions of the national guards, which were extremely crowded, and displayed much more heat and rivalry than the real friends of the republic could wish. No decision was, however, arrived at. The meetings were respectively adjourned to Thursday eight. The Government-Commissary at Lyons, M. Em manuel Arego, has issued a decree dissolving all unauthorised religious congregations and corporations, and especially the gingregation of Je , uite, in tho department et the head of which he is placed. The journals are much occupied with the approach ing eleetint e, We select the following. The XiCettat den and; that men of intelligence and pro bity should be returned to the national assembly, without any distinction of class. It says: The event of 1848 is a social revolution as much as a politic , ' one. 'fhe sight to make and execute laws, which was formerly the privi.e4e of the arientracy, and which the constitutional mietinichy had confi•led to the burg. nee'ass, henceforward Intones to the whole nation. Does that mean that the CieS9l, which have hitherto reigned are to he for the future systematically excluded from affairs, that a band and brutal ostracism is about to strike property, industry, com merce, and. science? What an absurdity! Science., com merce, industry, and property have rights to put forward and sacred inierests to defene, and it will never enter Mtn the thought of eery one to afterillee them. It must he ad mitted, these a 'awes have hitherto shown but little sympathy for the suffer nits of the po it man end little intelligence of his wants. They make use of the feeble for their own pur pores its place of aiding them, and M. Guizot, their moet eloquent organ, had the courage to declare one day that I. ecnsidrred misery as a necessary curl, on the people. Hunger was in his eye* a certain means of governing; and • majority of rich and lettered men was fours' to confirm by its votes thnt impious doctrine ! Such are the bitter fruits infallibly prooueed by a vicious political order of things. To divide men hot., categories and classes, to range them under dill', rest bane, rs, to give them opposing interests, is it not to organise amongit them a latent or declared war, and to engender in their minds hurtful passions which spring (rum war and which perpttuate it. On one side pride and con- tempt, then envy everywhere, hatred, and fear. Th ink God, the war is no. terminated; all distinctions are effaced; all harriers are br,,ken down. There are no more classes at pre- rout. Rich or poor, ignorant or lettered, idle or working, we I are all citizens in the same degree, all national guards, all I elretet it, all elegible as deputies—there is no longer any other distinctions but those whic'a react from probity, intelligence, devotedness, and services rendered. It would therefore be to alight the spirit ot the posioi into which we are entering, it would be a veritable anachronism to pay °Mahon, at the I approaching elections, to the fortune and profession of the Cllll. didates. To say, for instance, that so many deputize of such I a profession are required, is it not to constitute an absolute privilege to the pewit of that profession ? In that way, a man would be tholes' for hie profession. No one ought to be elected except for his personal merit, (or the faculties which hearcri has 'riven hint, and for the services which he CM nadir. Tilers are in all ranks of society men of merit. Let to not go and seek them here rather than there ; let us take them every -where. Amongst the workmen, for instance, then are men who. r a length of time, have had, tiled on those general attention, sad whose names are known tothe public. hey have Riven proofs of their good sense, insunetion. and devotedness to thea °sentry ; and their place is marked in advance at the national assembly. They will there cypress the sentiments cat their broehe.-,, and point out their wants ; l will enlighten the asvenibly and guide it through the c?r,aplicatekli.hy r i nt l i of que-tions relating to the organisation o "abainr. Their presence is iniiispersiable, and their ab. simee would be a public calamity. They are therefore sure of iiiting there , and they will may, we arc sure, a u,efui and gknous part The Vnion says: The nation is every oat.

A general court of the proprietors of stock in this corporation was held in the court-zoom of the Blatt this mornin lor the purpose of declaring a dividend, and upon other affairs. The attendance of the proprietors was very nuracr. oY. At 12 n'ylork the governor (Mr. Janice Morris), the deputy-governor, and m Ist of the dire tar., eatered the courtroom.

RS DIVIDEND.—The governor atsted that this was age. neral court, calico, pursuant to the charter anti Lye-laws, to saltier of a dividend; anti the court of directors, having considered the state and condition of the Bank's accounts, had great pleasure in proposing that a dividend at the rate of 4) per cent. should b• 3 deatred, out of interest and profits, if the court et proprietors thought fit. (Loud cheers.) The "rest," on the 29th of February last, was 3,946,524/. In the previous ha:f-year it was 3,925,634/, and showing, therefore, a clear surplus gain of 20,8901. ((fear, hear.) After deducting the present dividend and income tax, the " rest" would be 3,201,6391., leaving an increase of 20,8991. The Governor moved, that the proposed dividend should be declared. (Cheers ) Mr. FIELDER, alter referring to th 3 gradual increase in the " rest," considered that' the life-interest propri.Cors should he considered. lie amid move that the present dividend be increact4l by half per cent., or to five per cent., for the half-year. He would prove that, so steady had been the increase of the " rest," that his proposition should be entertained. The hon. proprietor then went over the gradual increase of the " rest " in support of his motion. After a few words from Mr. Clarke, Mr. de Winton, and Mr. D. Salomon', Mr. Fielder withdrew his motion, and a dividend of 41 per cent. was declared. INTERCOURSE WITH TILE CONTINENT.—The weekly return of paweagen through the Channel ports shows the number for the week ending March 12 to have been : Through Boul , gne, 1,551 ; through Cabral, 178. Th. corresponding numbers hart year were :—Through Boulogne, 860; through •alsis, 232.

RETIRING PENSION OF TILE LATE CLERK TO TEI HOUSE OP LORDS.—Sir,--Permit me, through the medium of your valuable journal, to ask you what gratuitous services the late clerk to the House of Lords rendered during the forty years he held that situation Had he not a splendid salary ? and though he frequently was present when the house sat, that was a small portion of the year for such an income. Had he paid a premium for such a laws tiorr, and the government thought proper to ao away with it, some argument might be advanced in favour of the pen sion ; in , trad of that, hundreds may be had who would be glad to fill the situation and divide the emolument equally between them durieg his lifetime.

The system commenced in 1814, when accommodation was provided fur 62 inmates, at the rate of 3d. for half a bed, then the current rate of charge in the very lowest description of houses. At the end of the first year in October, 1845, the projectors had afforded 4,677 nights' lodgings, but were minus 471.5 e. They did not, how ever, despair, but persevered. In October 1846 they had given ledgiog to 12,797, and turned the financial tables so far that they hod a surplus of 171. Os. 7d. In October 1847 they had accommodated 17,886, and increated their surplus to 571. 13s. 10d. COMMERCIAL MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.

Consols remain to-day with little disturbance of prices, speculative business being ge nerally avoided. They were quoted for some time at 804 to 11 both for money and account, but have re cently deelined to 801 to a. Exchequer Bills, 28s. to 31s. premium.

There was but a ecinty supply of cattle at our market this morning, which hats c t. ndency to advance the prices asked fur good Beef; but as the butchers were indisposes* to give increased rater, the animals shown met with only slow sale.

POOR. L AW PETITIONS. Mr. WAKLEY said he had several petitions to present on the subject of the poor laws, but it was unfortunate that at the time of presenting petitions the chief commissioner of the poor law (Mr. C. Buller), and the noble lord the secretary, were almost invariable absent. Sir G. GREY must'be permitted to make a remark after the statement of the hon. member. t Bear.) Although his hon. and learned friend the chief commissioner was not always present on the occasion of the presentation of petitions, he could inform the hon. gentlensaaand the house that every petition. presented on the subject of the poor law was forwarded to his hon. and learned triend at his request, and every allega tion contained in it received his most attentive consideration. Mr. WAKLEY considered it part of the duty of the chief commissioner to be in the house at the time of present ing petitions. (Order, order.) Load EBRINQTON, who bad just entered the house, tome to speak, but wee prevented by The SPEAKER calling him to order, there beibg no question before the house. Mr. V".IKLEY, amidst loud calls to ord .r, said he should pref. r presenting these petitions when the chief commie 'loner was present. BARWICII ELECTION. . - Mr. BAGGE iiO;;;clfOrii new writ for the borough of Harwich, in the room of Mr. J. Attwood, unseated ca petition. Mr. BLACKSTONE opposed the motion. Looking at the facto which had come to the knowledge of the house, in reference to the proceedings at the election for this borough in 1841, as stated in the evidence before Mr. Roebuck's committee of 1842, and the report to which the election own mittee had arrived in regard to the last election they ought to suspend the writ, at least until the evidence upon which that re port was refolded was before the li.olse. All he wished was that the house ehould adopt the same mune it had token lathe Sudbury and other crass, and that until an opportunity had been 'wen of eta mining the evidence they should not place it in t."te power ci the chews of Harwich to exercise those malpractiees which had been alleged against them He would therefore move as an amendment that the evidence taken before the Ilarwieh election committee be printed, and that the Speaker do net direct the iesuino of the warrant for a new election until the said evidence be printed and in the hands of mene ben. (Hear.) The motion and amendment baring been put, Sir G. GREY, in what he had said on the pi-eel...us even ing, disclaimed all ietenCon of imput'ng an unparliamentary roara to the hon. member who moved for the writ in In iling the motion at the hour he brought it forward, tar a inotim for a Lew writ might he m file at any time, and without notice ; but, after the observations which had Lees made by the hon. member for Wallingford, and the feeling which appeared to prevail in the house, he did suggest that they had better have the report of the committee in their hands before the writ was moved fur, in order that they might be enabled to judge whether there were really any sufficient grounds for the course suggested by that hen. member (Mr. Blackstone). In the present cue it appeared the committee had reported that bribery in one instance had been proved; that in other cases parties who had voted for the sitting member bad receised money, though there wee not sufficient evidence to show that it was in the shape of bribes; and also that an extensive system of treating prevailed. The question was whether this was Any sufficient ground for suspending the writ, and virtually iiiii franchising the electors. With regard to the evidence takers before Mr. Roebuck's committee in 1512, an act of patlie ment was passel to :heleinnity the witnesses from all COl , lO. quenoco, and it wcs untltr•tocel thst no ir..oree4inns with no tereuce to disfranchisement should take piece until alter tho report. As against Harwich no such proceedings were it stitutcd, and if it were intended to punish the electors of that borough for what took place in 1842, it should have been at the time and not now, in 1848. (Hear.) Therefore any opposition that might be offered to the issuing of this writ, must he submitted, be founded wholly on the report at the election committee, and altogether apart from anything that took place at previous elections. If they now refused to the electors the exercise of the franchise in e =nylonae of what occurred in 1842, in what a position would they place his hon. friend (Mr. Bsgshawe,) the other member for Harwich? Mr. 111.lIvIE regretted to perceive so strong an inclination on the part of the hon. baronet to screen the abuses of cur electoral system. The house ought not to be called upon to allow a new writ for the borough of Harwich, until the evidence was before them. (Hear, hear.) In fact he was of opinion that there ought to be a committee appointed under I Lord S. Russell's act, to inquire into the whole of these recent cases of bribery at elections. At the present mo ment such a course was particularly desirable. So great a want of honesty and decency had been proved in the case of Harwich, that he thought it ought to be disfranchised. (Hear, hear.) Sir J. GRAHAM said he never was more taken by sae prise than upon finding this question under discussion, . the motion for a new writ which had been moved at a very late hour the night before had been withdrawn on the 1111. deratanding that it would not be resumed until the evidence was before the house. (Cheers) He was also of opinion that the chairman of the committee ought to be in his ;ohms I, during the discussion. Reedit cting what had occurred in a former parliament, this case of H irwich certainly demanded 1 I the serious consideration of that house. (Hear, hear.) Ha therefore moved that the debate be adjourned. Sir G. GREY said that the debate of the previous night had been adjourned, not until the evidence, but the report of the committee, was produced. Mr. ELLIOT, as a member of the committee, detailed the difficulties they had to meet with in getting at the truth, owing to the reluctance with which witnesses gave their testimony, but he denied that any of the evidence was sup pressed. Mr. E. B. ROCHE hoped this question would be sifted. to the bottom. There was a growing impression abroad, particularly in Ireland, that English boroughs were become nag more corrupt and rotten, than before the Reform Bill— (tries of " Oh ") —and he did avow that his anxiety to see them diafranebised arose from his intention of putting fen ward his claim on the part of his country in each instance for a teamster of the representation. (Laughter.) It wes the spate m of corrupt representation which had hastened the late revolution in France. Mr. BAGSHAWE defended the character of the boroue,e of Harwich, which had, he said, been much improved since the discovery of bribery in 1841. Since then, the consti tuency bad increased from 189 to 291, and would it not be most unjust to suspend the votes of those new men who could not in any manner have infringed the law in 1841? One of the votes, agaimt whom bribery had been proved. was a 1.0.ir ignorant man— (laughter) —lk nate the two ote, re were boatmen, who lived more upon water than on land (Renewed laughter.) He, therefore, hoped that the writ would not be refused. Sir B. HALL said ho knew an instance of a Harweh voter having nceived ne ely .5001. for his vote. On part, 4- lar as well as geueral grounds, therefore, he opposed th. , is suing of the writ until they b ad the evidence of the cons mittee before them . . . . Mr. J. S. WORTLEY (chairman of the committee, who entered tee house during the discussion) said that he would discharge from his consideration altogether what had taken place in former years respecting the borough of Harwich, of which he had no official coeni,ance. Of the late c.mrnittee he wished to say that every facility had been given to the pe titioners to establish their allegations of bribery and treating, but that they had completely lailed to do so except as re garded three cases, which were certainly distinctly proved. In two of those cases the Lribery could not be brought home to Mr. Attwood; but U e third cat the committee considered to be a clear case, and they reported accordingly. Re, there foie, thought they could come to an *pillion o,i the question just as will now no if the evidence were before them. Sir J. TYRRELL hoped the evidence in the Kinsale case would also be laid before the house; for, if these discus , sions were to be so constant, he feared the noble rd (Lord J. Russell) would he compelled to bring forward rummer reform bill. (Loud cheers and laughter.) ' Mr. V. SMITH said that when be had come down to ' the house he had thought that, upon constitutional grounds, the writ ought to issue immediately, as had been done in the cases of Lancaster, Carlisle, and Newcastle-under-Lyme; hut the statements which had been made in the course of the present discussion impressed him with the opinion that some time might to be given to consider the report of the select oxamittee before any step was taken. After a few words from Capt. ELLiot in explanation, Lord D. STUART expressed his concurrence in the opinion, pretty generally expressed, that the house ought to have time to consider the minutes of evidence taken before the committee before a new writ should be order( d. The cue of Harwich did not stand upon the same grounds as the cases of Lancaster and other boroughs which had been re ferred to, because the house could not overlook or forget altogether that which had taken place with respect to Ws ' with in the year 1h42. Unless these boroughs, in which corruption confe-aedly prevailed, were purified, the country would indeed call for a new reform bill, but in the meantime if the house meant really to represent the people, it would take care that the sources of representation were not tainted or corrupted with impunity. lie Nought the proposal that the writ in this case should not inane until the minutes of evidence wen in the hands of hon. members was but fair and reasonable, and to it he could not see tl s'i;liteet objection. Mr. SAGOE Paid he wits qMee willing eith ,, r adj^ent the discussion or to withdraw the motion, whichevr, was most in ace.:nlaece wish th. feeling ef the house. Lord PALSIVISTON recommended the the original motion should bo withdrawn, and thereby that the debate should drop, and that the motion for issuing the new a sit should act be renewed without due notice, nor until titer the evidence taken before the ,^337'11tZ... which hall just closed its laboure, wan printed and in the hands d I I
