PUBLIC HEALTH BILL. Lord CAMPBELL moved the third reading of this bill. ~ The Bishop of LONDON could not allow the opportunity to pass without expressing his approval of the amendments which had been adopted on the suggestion of the select come mi.tee to which the measure had been referred. The rich could take care of themselves ; and the poor should there fore he especial objects of attention to the legislature. He had always Liken the most lively interne in this subject, and he was most thankful to their lordships for haring passed so useful and salutary a measure, which was justly called " The poor man's bill." Lord BROUGHAM also expressed his approval of the measure and the amendments made in the select committee. The bill was then read a third time and passed. RUMOURED REBELLION IN IRELAND. Lord BROULf HAM wished to put a question to the noble marquis opposite. He was sure that the noble marquis must be aware that every sort of practice, was resorted to to in crease the public curiosity by practising on the public credo lity ; and he thought it only right that a contradiction should be given ta a report which d app' aced to day, in order to relieve the public from the alarm which these speculators wished to excite. The report alleged that the troops had been defeated in the south of Ireland, and moreover that they had not done their duty. lie had no' doubt, from thy exaggerated character of the report, and a comparison of dates, that it was incorrect ; hut he wished to know whether the government had received any communication on the subject? lie should not be alarmed to see some little out break in the district referred to, and he hoped the public would not be alarmed, as it would be instantly put down. (fleas', hear.) The Marquis of LANSDOWNE knew that great inge nuity was practised in inventing such reports, but he be lieved that to which the noble and learned lord had referred to be entirely unfounded, or very nearly so. The govern ment had received despatches ' dated three o'clock yesterday, from the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, and letters from Dub lin, dated six o'clock last evening, in which nothing of the kind was mentioned. At the Fame time he could not say that there was nut a probability of an outbreak in the district referred to. Most inflammatory epee hes had been made to excite the people there to rebellion ; but if they should have that effect, it would be with a far different result from that which bad been described in the report alluded to. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought the govorn meet were quite right in waiting until the last moment be fore they resorted to the measures which they had recently adopted. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE begged to say that within the last few minutes he had read a communication from Dublin, dated seven o'clock last night, in white no mention was mace of the matter which had been so confidently stated in the retort alluded to. (Hear.) Lord BROUGHAM said an Irish member bad arrived in the same train which was said to have brought the intelli gence, and he had heard nothing of the sort in Liverpool. THE LAW OF MARRIAGE. The Bishop of LONDON wished to know whether the gets ernruent would sanction the introduction of a measure relating to the marriage of a deceased's wife's sister at an late a period of the sesaion 1 He understood such a measure had heen recently brought into the other house of parliament. Now he thought it ought not to lee passed until his right re v. brethren, who had given much attention to the subject, had bad an opportunity of expressii g their opinions on it, and many of them had lett town and could not possibly return during the present session of parliament Ile hoped the government would not sanction the introduction of the bell this session. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said the important and delicate measure to which the right rev. prelate alluded, and which was founded on the report of a commission, had not been taken up by the government, but by a learned indivi dual connected with the other house, who had given notice that he would introduce a measure on the subject. He (the noble marquis) wan not prepared to rely that the government would refuse their ;Ism nt to the introduction of the bill, even in the present session nt parliament. It wee. an important subject, both politically, morally, and religiously, and it was desirable that it should he set at rest with as little del iy as possible. CHARITY TRUSTS REGULATION BILL. The LORD CIIANCELLOR, in moving the second reading of this bill said it was introduced the better to re gulate certain charitable. trusts. The Municipal Reform Bill took away from the corporations the power of ad ministering the uses connected with the trusts of many chari ties, and it was now necessary to apply to the Court of Chancery to appoint trustees, which was au expensive pro cess. Moreover, those trustees, could not take the legal estate, which was said to be in nuhibus. Many small char:- ties could not afford to come to the Court of Chancery at all, and they had no means of renewing their trustees. It must be evident that there was a constant necessity for see ing that the funds of these charities were properly ads mieistered. To show the extent of this evil, he might state that of charities under 301. a year, which could not a ff ord to apply to Chancery, there were 23,746 ; the total numker of charities in the situation tee had described being 28,340. In 1846 the present County Courts bad been established, and they had been found to be much more useful than it was eve r imagined they could be. They were Low 60 in number, and from November, 1846, to the came period in the foliowine year, they bad adjudicated upon no less teen 420,4111 suits, and received during the since Iteri d 600,5591., including 203,3181. for fess. It would, he believed, be practicable to reduce these fees by one halt, and still leave a revenue suffichut to pay all the expenses of the establishment. This, he thought, was a highly satisfactory state of things—(hear, hear)—and they need not look farther for a juriediction to administer these local charities. lie might at once therefore say !hat the object of the bill was that all charities under 301. a year, should be sub j ect to the jurisdiction of the judges of the county courts. The greater part of the bill applied to that purpose ; but it had also other objects, one of which was that by an order or a judge or the Court of Chancery, the legal estate should be vested in the treasurer of the county court ; and by the same authority the stock of such cha rities would also be transferred to the same officer. In ascertaining the value of the charities, so as to else them the benefit of this measure, the report of the Chari table Trusts commissioners would lee held to be conclusive. The bill provided, among other things, that persons en trusted with charitable funds should annually render up a balance sheet for the inspection of the proper authorities. (Hear.) There was a great deal of property under these trusts which had been beeueathed in old times, and a far different state of society, for purposes to which they would be sanity inadequate at the present day, and the o!tject of the bill was, i possible, to render such property available fur eaucational purposes. At present toe county courts might report to the Court of Chancery as to the way in which each ;lusts might be carried out, but there were many small towns and 'MIR'S* from which an appeal to the Court of Chancery would completely exhaust the fonds. In such eases he thought they could not do better than hand the funds over tee the county courts, giving them then erne towers as were tow enjoyed by the Court of Chancery. In cams where doubts might arm as to the efficiency of the county courts, a reference might be given to the educational committee of the Privy Council, a tribunal in which the public seemed to have considerable confittence. After tree or two further observations the noble and 1, anted I lard move d the second readies of the bill. Lard REDESDALE appi weeded the principle and object of the bill, but ohjected to the time at which it had been brought forward. Ile trusted that the noble and learned lord would not press the MU further during the prosent session. The Bishop of LLANDAFF said that the object of the hill was one in which the. right rev. bench tuck a deep in terest. A bill which should tend to th 3 application of the various small trust funds scattered over the country to etiu catMnol purposes would rev lye their most favourable con side ration. There were, however. sees rate naetments in the pr e sent measure to which he could nut pledge either his riaht rev. brethren or himself. IL concurred in the sugees tion of the ble baron an to postponing the bill until re xi Breton. The salll of lIARROWDY believed that there was nothing mare abused than the various small trust funds scattered over the country, aor anything more loudly call ing for a remedy. It :as theretore with reluctance that he stood in the way of legislation on the subject, but he leared that with a bill introduced at the end of July little progress could he made during the present year. Toe LOltD CHANCELLOR did not think the Mg= so far advanced as to preclude the hope that they inight com plete a measure respecting which there seemed to ha so g- ne ral a concurs nee among their lordships. The tact was that a bill nearly similar had been introduced last session, so that the public had had ample time to consider the principle. The bill was then read a sec ind time. and, after a short discussion, the committee was fixed fer that day week. Their lordships celjourned at ha t•past seven o'clock. litigation. Three clauses of the bill virtue ly repealed the act 7 & 8 Victoria, under which contested elections were now tried. The power to appoint two commissioners.who should possess all the powers of the house, was most objectionable, a t to the i n v o l v i ng schedule t he o li e p: i t e h c e i p ! b e i ih e double fou n d d st or a s t h i of . . R e ferring the boroughs to which it referred. Why, there were actions pending for penalties, if they bad not been compromised, arising out of the Honham e:ection ; and WAS it pr 'per to legislate on that subject while these a ctions were pending to fore a competent tribunal ? The cases of Leicester and Derby offered this remark—that while in the latter the whiga only had bribed, in the former, not only whigs, but radicals, end the leaders of the newly formed reform party, bad been guilty of the same practices. Ile s conded the amendment en grounds of principle, and not of detail, fur he ohiected to every enactment of the bill. Mr. HUDSON roil he had opposed this bill in a former stage, but should not now vote teem it. His opinion of tb • bill was not altered ; he thought it would create a great arnauet of strife and tic art-burnings. lle had known what it was to be the subject of one of those inquiries, aria to have his private conversations reported and all his trareac tions exposed. If investigation were imeituted it should be general. An bon. member of that house had openly stated that there hail been gross bribery at the isat election for London, and had even mentioned the names of those who had paid the price of corruption. If any inquiry was made it should include the last elec tion for London. It was pre posterous to set up a crusade against all elections at which money had been distributed to the po• rer electors. lie dad cot speak of bribes, of course, nor hail the small sum* elven to poor elictors for thc:r dinner. or fur their reasonable ex penses to ass d from the place of polling, anything to do with bribery. If it were elccid d that halt crown tickets or five shilling tickets given in this way to the poor electors were to vitiate elections, the result would he to throw the franchise wholly into the hands of the rich, for unless euste mance on their ray to and from the pulling ;laces were given to the humbler electors they would nut be able to attend and exercise their franchise at all ; for the very practical reason that they could not afford it. Ma' did the right hon. baronet propose to do when he had got his report ? There was no practical intimation as to what the result was pro posed to be. After the decided division which heel token p ace on a former stage of the bill, he should not vote against the present stage, though be still retained. all his objections to the measure. Mr. URQUIIA.RT supported the amendment. The house divided.—F For or the motion the amendment 2-91 The house then went into committee. On claim I being proposed, Mr. ANSTEY said he should move the omission of thou wrds in the clause which authorised inquiries into elections in o reference to which committees already nominated had not made a special report; and he ahouhl afterwards, whatever the division on that amendment, move the omission of t ie clause eltnwethr r. Col. SIBTHOILP contended for the impartial extension of the inquiry. Mr. ANS FY then put the amendment he had intimated, limiting the inquiry to elections with respect to which special reports had been made. '1 he SOLICITOR 4 J EN KRAL snegested the propriety of postponing this amendment until they came to the list of boroughs. ' Mr. REYNOLDS deprecated the manner in which, at this period of the session, the hon. and learned member for Youghal, in the spirit of mere opposition, occupied t' e time of the house. (Hear, hear.) There had that day bees con sumed four hours in the discussion whether the bill Was to go into committee, of which lour hours the hen. and learned member had absorbed three. ( Hear, hear.) Hon gentle men present clearly showed themselves to be members of Job's family by their magnanimous endurance on the occa sion. (Hear, hear.) Before he came into parliament he had been warned by his friends not to weary the attention of the house by long, rigmarole, absurd speeches about nothing—(hear, heir) —end he had, from a feeling of respect to niineelf and to the house, abstained from perpe trating such speeches—(bear, hear, and a Laugh) ; but certainly as a zealous repealer he ought to hail such speeches in the hon. and learned member for Youghal, in the convic tion that if the hon. and learned member could manage to get fifty other Irish members with Null strength of lung and obstinacy of pertinacity—(hear, lieer)—the imperial House of Commons would stile repeal in sheer weariness and disgust. (Great laughter.) Mr. ANSTEY, who, on rising, was received with gener al and loud cries of Oh, oh," protested against the attack made on him by the hon. member for Dublin, whom he charged with being influenced iu his new seal teethe govern ment by views of personal advancement, and by the Reform Club contribution in aid of his election committee expi MS, which the right hon. member for Drogheda had admitted himself a die or to. (Loud cries of " Oh, oh.") Sir W. SOMERVILLE dam-nded to know by what authority the hon. and learned member thus introduced his name on this occasion? Mr. ANSTEY had no hesitation in answering the hon. baronet. The hon. baronet admite or did not deny, the other night that he had paid money for the support of an election an impeachment of which upon petition was now pending; and he said that the money was not paid by him in the capacity of Secretary b u r Ireland. Sir W. SOMERVILLE.—I said nothing of the kind. (Cheers.) Mr. ANSTEY said he was in the recollection of the house. Whatever verbal variations there might be between the hon. gentleman's statement seed this lie could not tell. Unless his tits were treacherous that was the substance of what the hon. member said. (Oh.) Sir W. SO M ERVILLE.—I beg to say that nothing fell from me the other night that could give the shadow of a foundation for what the hon. member has stated. (Coders and cries of " Oh, oh.") The SOLICITOR-GENERAL appealed to the committee whether such personal discussions were consistent with the dignity of the house or the furtherance of public business. hoped that the hon. member fur Youg ha l wou ld with draw his amendment. ale ANSTEY must say, before he replied to that appeal, that the hon. gentleman had not answered his question. The CHAIRMAN put it to the committee whether it ace aded with the dictates of propriety or discretion that they should allow such discussions as this ? (Cheers.) ln answer to a question from Mr. PACYB. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that the provisions of the bill could only apply to those cases in which this house eat in committee onclection committees. Mr. ANSTEY said that he would press his amendment. The galleries were then cleared • and on our re-admission we Caned th at no division had taken place, the hon. gentle man haying withdrawn his amendment. After gems verbal amendments the clause was agreed to. On the second clause being proposed, Cu!. SIB HORP said that he would move that the clause be omitted as entirely unconstitutional. Alter a few words from the SOLICLTUK•GENICRAL and Mr. hENLEY, Mr. GODSON objicted to the clause. Sir 1). L EVANS supported it. Mr. .1. 11013110 U SE I bought that the clause violated the principle of English law, weich deciared that a man ought not to be called on ta give evidence against himself. Ihe clause would convert every member iuto an informer against his own constituents. The SOLICITOR GENERAL sail a few words in explanation. Mr. C. BERKELEY was so far opposed to the view taken of the clause by his hon. friend the member for Lincoln as to be quite ready, and even desirous, to be Examined as to the practices at his own election, use borough b:iug one that was impugned. Mr. MANGLES thought that a member who gas, evi dence of corrupti , o :,mongst his consituents was serving :hem and doing his duty by his cooutry. Mr. PACKE supported the amendment for striking out the elmse. Mr. HENLEY moved the oinis , ion of words from the cla..ee the effect of which would be to exempt the sitting member or members, any candidate or eandigates, Or their agents from examination before the comn.ittee. Mr. It PALMER said, that as the law stood a man might be constitutionally examined, even iu his own case, it he were lade moitied. Mr. BANKES thought that there should be an indemnity for c ,nseitueecies as we a • for inembas. Mr. C. BERKELEY said, that i eirrupt practices pre. veiled in Cheltenham, he would be happy to be the person to disclose them. Sir 11. L. EVANS thought that the amendment w; nt too far in including agents. Mr. It. PALMEIt did not thick the amendment would effect the object contemplated by his hon. friend. Atter a tow words from Mr. HENLEY, The committee divided—For the amendment 22 Against Mr. BANKES "aid that by the bill an alternative was allowed to committees of uel,gatiug their power to a coin m:ssion, who were to be lawyers of tereeyears' standing, and to such delegation he should object. Cote majority iu that house might 118:' such a p..wer for party purpose, He had voted fur the second reading of the bill, but it this part of it was not altered he would vote against the third reading. He moved that the words refitting to commissioners be omitted. The SOLICITOR.GENERAL hoped the house would' not adopt the amendment. The object of having commis siouers was to save expense and delay by enabling the inqui ries to be made upon the spot. Cul. SIBTHOSP said that was not ta , real reason. The real reason for the commission was to secures patronage fur the government. The SOLICITOR.GENERAL said the judges were to appoint Col. SIBTHORP.—Ay, in one sense, but don't tell me there won't be a Downing street nomination. Mr URQUHART opposed a commission, on the ground that the house ought out in any way to surrender its pre rogative. Mr. ANSTEY, amielst groans and cries of "divide," moved that the committee report progress. The SOLICITOR GENERAL expressed his hope that the hark. and learned member would not prey his motion, at least until the clause under discussion was disposed of. Mr. ANSTEY persisted in his motion, and complained that the hon. member for Salford never moved the adjourn ment of the house when it interfered with the government business. (" He's gone to Goodwood." Laughter.) Col.

THANKS to the stupidity of those who preside ova the Liverpool Rail way Telegraph, and the ingenuity of certain light-fingered or light-tongued gentry, who pawned upon them the but too likely story of a flagrant outburst in Ireland, the metropolis was yes- terday frightened with a repetition in our own islands of those peculiar events which have given such in. terest to continental r.ews during the late months. The inventors of the spurious despatch must have studied the too real ones. A stntim on fire, rails torn up, people in masses, soldiery disaffected, or refusing to act—all bear witness to the foreign source of inspire. tion. We trust that neither the ingenuity nor the success of the perpetrators of this gross fraud will protect them from speedy exposure and cotdigu punishment. The discovery of the falsehood is not mach relief. For all admit the story to be but too probable, how ever premature. The last accounts from Clonmel re present it as in the nearest stage to insurrection. And Kilkenny, which so lately tried its hand at barricades, is equally ripe far serious outbreak. The expressions, too, of the unfortunate men who are driving the pe.asantry to defy the power of the law and the authority of government, plainly demonstrate that they have no resource left but in rebellion. Mr. Stu - En O'lliffesi confessed, in or.e of his popular harangues, marked more by despair than hope, that he had already spent his fortune in the cause, now risked his life, and that he and Mr. MxeGieEß flung them selves upon the Irish peasant for protection. It is indeed a forlorn hope, a rebellion, not so much to wrest Ireland from the imperial monarchy, as to foe the hems or reputations of two or three rash end foolish men. It is plain that these men will do their utmostto raise the standard of insurrection. It is probable they will succeed in one or two places. It may be calor lated, moreover, that any advantage, even partial, gained over any police or military force in any one place, mould have a tremendous effect, aLd give ores' soon to many risiugs, if not a general one. Such triumra is, howev.r, very unlikely, as of late years barracks and other military posts in Ireland have ell beer secured against an assault of the mob. What, however, has had most influence in exciting our fears, is certainly the tone and attitude assumed by the prime minister itc the House of Commons However the electric telegraph may have been de ci iced, it is plain that Lord Jolty RUSSELL has been panic-stricken by the intelligence. He be. lieves in the insurrection, and the dangerous state, not merely of Waterford and Tipperary, bat of a 1 Ireland. His lord-bin processed 1a..% eight to fling legislation, as tar as Irecacei was concerned, to the winds. He tore the Ls dlord and Tenant Bill asunder, as if it wero au old song, and told plain', the Irish members to get hom ioen as fast as the! could and put down insurrect. Some of thew Irish members prayed very hard not to be sent back without at least one remedial measure, one law of improvement, to serve as a branch of olive in their hands, and a plea to save them front the reproach of having spent six month parliamea for the sole end uf passing three coercion bills. But Lord Joust resolved to give no more gum' ter to Irish friend than to Irish foe; and he bade the Irish and t'aeir measure to begone—to --- for the session. It is now fifty years since serious rebellion Iv attempted ir, Ireland. At that time the plan wig concocted by the most able anu influential men m the country, who were in communication with WI government of France, and had the promise of a large army tend a good general. The Irish leaders hid ample time to perfect their scheme, t he organ' isation of which was something similar W 4 * much noised clubs of the present day. let what did all these deep - laid schemes. tel°l in ? Why, that not one of the &stria so carefully organised and so menacingly Guile' fiant made anything of a stand; a nd the 0. 1110 serious resistance proceeded from a quitter 1;3, which the rebellious scheme had not P enetnt "" , and whete the catholics were rousetoe 5 improvised and unmeditated resistance by the sse and persecution of the (mange corps.
