IRELAND• Ditmar, Doe. 111. Th. point raised in Mr. Dad's ass received the jtrected disposal this mining. Both the learned gei held that the whole of the came previous to the passing ef the set 6 Geo. IV. cap. 61, were against the case made on behalf of Mr. affy, and that there was nothing in the act to take it out of the operation of those decisions. The act did not directly apply to the present ems at all, and the court could not imply anything to dis qualify the crown from taking whatever course it ahoald think fit to take in furtherance of the adminis tration ofjustioe. But the counsel for the prisoner bad not discharged their quiver in this shot, and on Mr. Duffy being called on to plead to the indictment, his mamma handed in on his behalf a plea of abatement, on the ground of the disqualification of two of the grand jury who found the bill. This plea the crown thought of sufficient impedes°, to take time to earmiate. SECOND EDITION. Rome the OeiZETTB of THIS NIGHT.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGIENC74. two d amis.—WS have a met of revolution in I stocks this morning. Consols opened at 881 to 1, or ► below the last quotations of yesterday, with a mar ket by no means poetising of improvement. Sellers were not wanting to mad themselves of the heavier appearance of the fends, but might not, perhaps, have produced much effect had not the Bank broker come in aid of their operations by some considerable sales, as re ported, at Itirse.asil-a-Quarter per Cents. Upon these mks all stocks declined at once ; and we quote Cassels sow only 88 to ex div. for the opening ; Three and-a-Quarter per C e nts., 881 to 1. Reduced Threes are 88 to 1. Bank Stock, 190 to 2. Exche quer Bills, 40s. to 43e. premium. The fall in Consols from the highest point yesterday to the rates now ruling is fully 1 per cent. There is not much doing in the foreign market, where, however, prices nominally are called better, but it may be questioned whether they would be obtained in business to be done. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are quoted 481 the Frs, at 731 to 41. Belgian, 72 to 4. Ruskin, 1011 ton 2l. Danish, 65 to 8. Spanish Fives, 13 to 1 ; the 'Mess, 27 to 1. Pamir., 3 to 4. Portuguese, 25 to 6. Mexican, 221 to 1. Perlman, 391 to 411. Chilian, 84 to 6. Bra zilian, 731 to 51. New Grenada, 12 to 13. Vene zuela, 141 to 161. The advice, from Bombay, of the 15th inst., report still the Mae abundance of money, but funds and shares weredell at the date, on atesent of adverse reports from the Berlin market, after Wag in good demand, and reslising higher rates for wins days pre vious. Exchange ea London was Is. higher for three months, and 4 to 1 for short bills, but the operations were limited from the email supply of paper abroad. The market was good, and higher eaten were ob tained for coffees, wheat,barley, and maltingbarley. 131941111 IVN DP. Dank Steel. 120 2 ter far Pr.. lIS 4 3 Sao: Awe., IS I ar cs llll 2 496. 10 ila.

Nor I diddle ex pen diture on Caddesden stop here; fora few months a,the ecolesisstical commission, at a board meeting when there were 'items episcopal aad.oaly two lay commissioners present, authorised the Bishop of Oxvoao to charge his see with 1,7001. more to pay the balance of unauthorised expenditure due in respect of the adornment of Cuddeeden palace. Encouraged by the success of his successor in the see of Oxford, Dr. BAOOT quickly found out that the episcopal palace at Wells was in a sad plight ; it wanted bedrooms, it wanted stables—in short, there wee no end of its wants. Bat Dr. Boocers applica tion for the means to supply all these wants came too late. Dr. Witaxitroacis had been beforehand with him. The younger and wilier prelate had ex hausted the episcopal funds for the present. But where there is a will there is a war. And so, unable to give him the money, the ecclesiastical commission authorised Dr. BAOOT to borrow 4,0001. and lay it out on the pekoe at Wells, and kindly charged the episcopal fund with the payment of the annual interest on the amount so raised. Aud of the 4,0001. for which the episcopal fund is thus pledged, Dr. BACOT, the Bishop of Bath and Wells, spent a part in building a conservatory, and thereby blocked up from view a window of the episcopal chapel which was the *deli ; ration of all who saw it. Is the Episcopal Fund, or any other fund, safe in such hands P cases of its Yet these are, as we shall show, trifling wanton waste.

Te e settlers who left this country to form colonies or to establish themselves in colonies already settled berm 1688, believed that they continued the liegern en tf their sovereign, but recognised no authority ove them as existing in tie representatives of hie Engesk subjects. They held that they were to be governed by the king and their local parliaments exactly es their countrymen who remained in the old country were to be governed by the king a-d their we e . moot. The parliamentary government of the ma. monwealth waned that it had succeeded to th royal rights over the colonies, but did not exist loig enough to enforce them. The English parliaments under the restoration legislated for the colonies in the spirit of the long parliament, but home intrigues and streb glee engrossed too much the attention of Englieli statesmen during these two reigns to adroit of the legislation being enforced. After the revolution the parliamentary . government assumed that the colonise stood to them m the same relation aa they had ongi. nally stood to the crown. But during tke refuel Verremem, ANNE, and the two first Brunswick prime, little attention was paid to the colonies. Even the navigation and customs laws were laxly enforced; the idea of extorting tribute from the cotonies wu rejected by the sound sense of Wsteott henry and their local government was rarely interfe ' red with. The attempt to derive a revs. one from the colonies, taken up by needy ministers at the beginning of the reign of GUMS brought the question of parliamentary authority over the colonies to an issue, and the controversy ended in Great Britain's losing thirteen of its bed colonies, because a parliamentary majority insisted upon treating them as subject dependencies, not u blood relations, who had formed distinct communities and retained their allegiance to the same crown. Since that time the authority of oar parliamentary government has been strictly enforced over the fee weaker colonies which were retained under British rule, and over all the colonies which have since been founded, or wrested from other states. The school of directly and avowedly extorting tribute from the colonies has indeed been practically date Boned ; but indirectly they have been made Int butary. In all the colonies the customs duties im. posed as part of our commercial system have been kept in the hands of the imperial government ; the collection and management have been made the pne text for keeping up a staff of custom house officiele it all the colonies, nominated by the home government from among its subservient political agents. The nomination of governors, judges, law officers of the crown, and, in short, the nuuttuatioce to all colonial offices which had salaries attached to them sufficiently large to tempt government partisans to emigrate tothe eolomes,has in like manner been exercised by . the home government. The colonies have been indirectly I taxed by being made to maintain the set vioeable partisans of the ministers of the day, men in the immense majority of instance utterly incompetent to discharge the duties of the offices they held. The colonies have been taxed, not for the advantage of the mother country, but be I afford corrupt ministers the means of rewarding the tools by whom they established their power at home. Every opportunity has been embraced of multiplying' unnecessary officials in the colonies, in order to extend ministerial patronage in the mother country. This system has been pursued to such an extent, that to avoid provoking disaffection in the colonies, ministers have been obliged to persuade parliament to undertake the payment of many of these super numerary officers. To keep the colonies subject to this wretched system, ministers resorted to the device of governing them by " family co mpacts" of resident colonists, and by enforcing in their behalf a monopoly of the mother country's markets, whielt benefited not the resident colonists at large, but I few overgrown proprietors and trading capitalists, most of whom have been permanent absentees,reselthit corstantly in the mother country. Under this system colonies have been regarded by successive &Webs°. vernmenta solely ass sourced' corrupt ministerial lane I nage. The colonists have suffered by this system: having been made to pay inefficient and suaerthuthe public servants at extravagant rates; and having hid the profits of their trade engrossed in a great meson by absentee capitalists. The inhabitants of the mot ther country have suffered by this system : has* been obliged to bear part of th e expenses d colonial government; having had many brioche of their trade monopolised in the name of the oleos; and havlng had their venal boroughs represented by . the absentee colonial proprietors, the abject slues of any minister. een spirit among the resident co l on ists, has of lateb _ breaking up this system of colonial misrule. lb! adoption of free trade, as the national commerc a t policy, is acceleratin g its entire dissolution. pen The growth of a more enlightened an d indedent tunately, both for the colonies and the rnotes _ country, we are on the eve of being compelled w n establish such a system of relations with our ',ikon e h Fet as prevailed to a great extent in practice, Una. not in theory, before the American war of • dependence. vice ocnoTri---- t the heads of the church, after haring avowed their anxiety to promote the extension of the parochial system, and after having been crowded together in a commission having that extension for its main object —should refuse to throw the money derived from what are called " the paying bishops " into the fund appli cable to the great cause they . profess to have so much at heart, is, of itself, a suspicious circumstance. To say the leas t of it, the refusal argues a closer attention to their own pecuniary interests than to the lavish expe n diture they have made or can hereafter welfare. But when it tar ns out that aftergalenl7l:el make on bishop's palaces, on episcopal gardens, and on prelatical coach-houses and stables, there . will gill (when the act of 1838 comes into full operaton) be a balance of no lees than 16,0001. a year in favour . al this Episoopal Fund, the refusal becomes sugr is v as e that them are behind the separation larger than even the most abundant security for the pay ment of episcopal stipends end for the settlement of , occasional accomts for palatial repairs. The opera lion, it suet never be forgotten, was not accidental; ' it did not arise out of the natural order of circus& stances ;it was n ot intended by parliament. How it did originate has been so eby Sir JAMlia LIBAHAN, that we bo rrow his account of the job : Is the year 1836 the Ant ecclesiastical co As fmmissio irst seen wasr appointed.

That set—the & 4 Viet., c. 1411—matained fa t li he 19tb sorties these words " the ismer set and this act shall be construed as if thisy were me sad the same eat." Ia the opi. this of lawyers, the effect of these words was la - the episcopal fund and the common fund then cre ating fats one mass available for the same uses ; and from MO to 1841 the distinction between the fends did not exist. ta ism it was obliterated altogether by the words to whiek I have called attention. In 1841, the end however,of one claims, an aet was par sea ed anima the act of 184 0 ; .anat 80, it repealed the provision contained is the important WOMB, " that this act and the preceding set shalt be con strued se one and the same act." No soma being takes of the eff of the words in the former act, from the attention houseth not having Man called to them, them iu.portialt words in the set of 1840 were repealed by the act of 1841 ; the complete fusion of tae two funds was thus destroyed, and the emend= of the two funds was then for the first time created by statute. In this crafty and, unhappily for the church, , eincessafal trick there is little difficulty in treeing the experienced hand of London's ever meddling Diocesan: for he it is who has huge and comprehensive designs on the Epis- Z27;Fund thus ingeniously, if not very credi , established. He looks forward to its still unappropriated balance of 10001. a year as a source whence not only to endow the three new bishoprics of Southwell, St. Alban's, and Bodmin, which he has seduced Lord Julin RUSSELL into the folly of con templating; but he confidently talks of applying some part of this annual sum to the extension of the episcopal order in our colonies. A very pretty plot to waste the means of the church, One, too, that aught have been successful had ministers only procured in the Bishopric of Manchester Act, the legislative sanction they sought to Dr. BLOMVIELD'S extravagant scheme of Bishop (as counter distinguished from Church) Extension. To throw away 12,000!. a year on the foundation of three new English bishoprics, when that sum could bei far more advantageously applied to the endowment of forty new parochial districts, with an annual stipend of 3001. a year to the incumbent of each, would be a piece of indecent waste. Quite of a piece, it U true, with the past conduct of the Ecclesiastical Com mission ; but not likely to be tried now that public attention is fairly fixed on the proceedings of that body. It is, indeed, so utterly inconsistert with the present state of the church and of the recessities for its extension, when compared with the means appli cable to that extension, that even a bishop, when the matter is put plainly before him by lay intelligence, shrinks from giving an expression of assent to Dr. BLOMFivi D'l34 igne. Dr. KAT; the Bishop of Lin coln, was examined on the point before Mr. DEBI BON'S committee, and thus he spoke thereon : It has been given in evidence bas one of your lordships' bench that an addition of bishops is the thing beyond any thing else that is required for the advantage of the church might I ask whether that is your lordship's opinion ?—I think that an increase of bishops is very desirabie in some instances ; but if I were to be asked whether I think it more desirable than an increase of parochial clergymen, 1 must say that I do not think it more desirable. Then, with the view entertained by your lordship, after the poorer sees which at present exist shall have been pro. Tided for, there would be no objection to the' union of the episcopal and common fund P—l do not say that it is act de sirable that there should be an increase of bishops ; but if I am asked to compare the menses of bishops with that of parochial ministers, on the supposition that I must forego the one or the other, I should say that I should forego the foundation of additio nal bishoprics ; and yet Ido think that in some eases the foundation of additional bishoprics is most desirable. The question In my mind is, whether the same uhject might not be accomplished in another way, and whether a power might not ibst given to the commission, which does not exist at the present moment, of making over from time to time a portion of the surplus of the episcopal fund to the other fund. But,begging Dr.Ksr z's pardon, the occasional trans fer of a portion of the surplus of the Episcopal to the Common Fund, will not do. After the extravagant waste of that fund by the bishops, the separation must be done away . with altoget her . There is no safety for the remaining 12,0001. a year but to merge it in the Common Fund. There is no security against the creation of new bishoprics but in the extinction of the Episcopal Fund. The Bishop of LINCOLN sees this clearly enough : he admits the question to resolve itself into this alternative The extension of the pare dried system by the extinction of the Episcopal Fund, or the extension of the Episcopate by the distinct existence of that fund ? After all the sums that are required to make good the pay ments to the poorer sees shall have been paid, does your lordship think that it would be desirable to preserve the die. tiaction between the episcopal and the common fund, or to blend them together 2—That depends upon the answer to an other question. If an increase of bishoprics is contemplated, then I should say of necessity you must continue the die- Unction, as the means of providing the incomes for the addi tional bishops. Would it ible, out of not be perfectly poss the commas hind, if both funds were blended, _to make the payments to the new bishops, if new bishops should be considered to be required for the benefit of the church P—l think that would be a very unpopular measure, because there con be no doubt that, do what you will, you can never provide, at Tina contrast between the early histories of New least Ido not see the means of providing, the necessary England and New Zealand, to which we drew often means far meeting the continually lacressicff demand for tion on Tuesday last, indicates the predominant parochial clergymen.

But MS of its undoubted advantages le its freedom from dynastic interests and prejudices. Yesterday the F re nch government was conducted by General CA VAIGNAC, who was supremely indifferent to whether BOURBON or HAPSBURG reigned and prevailed in neighbouring kingdoms. To-morrow Louth BONAPARTI will have assumed the reins of state. And from that day the French govcrnment can no longer be considered indifferent to questions of dynasty. The great question of who shall rule in Italy, who shall role in Spain, which the republican President of the French Republic I might have lent his aid to solve in the manner beet suited to the interests of the country to be ruled over, will now be answered in the way most condu cive to the BONAPARTE interest. We all have heard of one mode of settling the vexed government of Lombardy. This wen, to make it over to the Duke of LEUCHTZNBERG, the son of EUGENE BRAUHAINOIS, the adopted son of NAPOLEON, and the equally adopt son-in law of the Emperor NICHOLAS. There can be little doubt that such a settlement of the hostilities of North Italy would be highly agreea ble to the Czar, and equally flattering to the new President of the French Republic. Whilst of all the modes of disposing of the Milanese, on the supposi tion that it is not to remain Austrian, this mode would be most agreeable to the court of Austria itself. That court would thereby introduce into Italy the most formidable rival to CHARLES ALBERT, the most formidable barrier to any Franco-Italian king dom. It would make Russia a party to the great , league for the permanent enslavement of Italy. Whilst France would be bribed to acquiesce, by the advancement of a supposed BONAPARTE, Or the con tingent promise of Savoy. We need enter into no argument to prove that such an arrangement as the placing Italy under the safeguard of Russia would be highly inimical to France, to its interests, and to the great liberal cause. But it might be rendered highly accept able to any family or met of ministers govern ing France. For, first of all, such an arrangment would evidently either imply, or lead to, that close alliance between France and Russia so often talked of, and several times attempted, but which, singular to my, never drew near completion without bringing utter ruin on the French prince or minister, I wheever he might be, that lent himself to it. The first difficulty that strikes one is, how Germany could be induced to consent to arrangements so dis graceful to her. But, alas, Germany is no more Her public spirit and general interests have suffered a complete eclipse. The pride and honour of that country lie buried beneath military rule. And soldiers, who hold Germany in thrall , think, like NARVAT2, more of their own predominance than their country's unity, influence, or honour. The young Emperor of GERMANY, the unfortunate and vacil lating King of PRUSSIA, look to Russia and its armies for support in any extremity against the impatient turbulence of their subjects; and neither are in a condition to resist Italy's being treated like Poland in the last century, and reparcelled out amongst foreign tyrants. It is easy to foresee, as the remit of such a new league, that CHARLES ALBERT would be sacrificed, that the Pope would become once more a sacerdotal prefect of the holy alliance, and that South Italy and Spain would be left to the BOURBONS as the price of their acquiescence. Amongst the needless calumnies got up against Gen. CAVAIGNAC by his foes, it was al leged that the Pope would not come to France because its government was wielded by_ the son of a regi cide. In a BONAPARTE his Holiness would hare entrusted his cause and keeping. Yet strange to say, the personage whose turbulence expelled Pius IX. from Rome was no other than a BONAPARTE, the Prince DE CANINO himself, who has been playing the part of Runt. How the King of NAPLES is to fare in this " right about face" of European diplomacy, it would be difficult to conjecture. At present his Majesty and his Sicilian subjects have got into a hitch where they may stick long enough. In the reconciliation proposed to the Sicilians, the King insists on one condition, which is, that he shall have full command over the military, and uncontrolled power to re-model, appoint, and form the new Sicilian army. He demands, in fact, the full power of the sword. If the Sicilians grant this demand, they simply bare their necks before the Neapolitan execu tioner, whilst they place in his bands a naked and powerful sword. This was precisely what CHARLES I. demanded of his parliament; and the whig historian, Mr. MACAULAY, fully states the Sicilian case, when he panes judgment on the English one. Mr. MACAUIAT says, that " it would have been mere in sanity in the parliament to leave the King in posses sion of that plenitude of military authority which his ancestors had enjoyed." The tort' limes may demur against this judgment of the whig writer. But the Sicilian parliament may plead the opinion of an eminent member of the Bri tish cabinet, and who happens not to be Lord PAL MERSTON, that it would be inanity in them to yield to the demand of their King. would I I ilt Orpreoo.

IT has been already stated in the Daily News that, previously to their accession to power, Lord JOHN HUSSEI L and Sir GEORGE 0 RET stood deeply pledged to their political friends to improve, when the opportunity which service under the Crown gives to statesmen was afforded them, the machinery by which the halting and insufficient measure of existing church reform is put in motion, and to extend the principles on which that system of ecclesiastical improvement is based. It is, moreover, understood that the Premier and Home Secretary, shortly after they became Ministers, withdrew a plan which they had prepared in conformity with this pledge, and which they had submitted to some of the heads of the church, in consequence of the unwilling ness of the late Dr. HOWLEY to have the arrange ments he had sanctioned disturbed during the re mainder of his Primacy. It now appears that the performance of the pledge thus given by the two leading ministers of the Crown to their own political friends has been pressed upon Lord JOHN Meseta. by three of his political op ponents ; and that since March lest his lordship has been in possession of sugg estions for further church reform, prepared by Lord HARROWBY, Lord ASHLEY, Mr. Coto:tenons, and Lord R Ottosveson, the leading points of which we quoted on Friday frem the Record. Though the plan thus J 1 au ggslai is certainly a large step for sash men es the three first named to take, it is, never than, a movement insufficient to meet the exigencies afthe ease.
