His Royal Highness Prince Albert has accepted the Chancellorship of the University of Cambridge. A deputation from the Senate, consisting of the Vice Chancellor and the Senior Ewpsire Bedell, had an in terview with the Prince at Buckingham Palace yes terday afternoon, when his Royal Highness expressed himself in the warmest terms of satisfaction at the distinguished honour conferred upon him by the University of Cambridge, and the sincere gratification he felt in accepting it. His Royal Highness conversed with the deputation on the subject of English univer sity discipline, and evinced considerable knowledge of the Oxford anti Cambridge systems. The important ceremony of the inauguration of the new Chancellor is expected to take place on Thursday, the 18th inst.; the installation, and the usual festivities connected therewith, at the July commencement We regret to say, notwithstanding what has ap peared to the contrary, that there appears little reason to doubt that the state of Mr. O'Connell's health is ex tremely delicate. The learned gentleman is under stood to be in so enfeebled a condition, as to be un able to receive the deputations which wait upon him, without suffering pain, and, afterwards, much lassi tude. It is, however, the opinion of his medical ad visers, and those who have the most frequent oppor tunities of seeing him, that all he requires to ensure his perfect restoration to health is an absence from all political excitement, and change of scene. Advices from Batavia to the let of January report that trade was in an unfavourable state. The price of madapollams had been lowered 20 per cent by the directors of the Dutch factory, which had exercised a disadvantageous influence upon almost all imported commodities. Articles of export were, however, ruling at gool prices, with a firm market Rice was on the rise, and many orders were held over unexecuted, because limited too low in terms. The non-receipt of advices from Europe rendered business less active than other. wise it might have been. Freights were lower, with a considerable number of vessels disposable. Arrack, first quality, was held at 40 to 42 florins; second quality, 34. Java Coffee, 18 to 20 florins:.l Sumatra, 111 to 12. Rice, 210 florins, with a brisk demand for Holland. Sugar, first quality, 13 to 131 florins; second, 12 to 121 ; third, 11 to 111. Baum' Tin, :100 to 375 florins per kodie. Exchange on Holland, 95 per cent at 10 months' date ; London, 13/. The corn markets still come reported higher from the Continent. The government of Electoral Hesse, in consequence of the short supplies and high prices, has prohibited distillation from grain for three months. The Belgian Moniteur publishes the following re sults of the traffic on the state lines during the month of January last:—Total receipts for January, 1,005,809 francs; for December, 1,001,332 francs. Increase in January, 1,277 francs. The number of passengers conveyed was 228,792, of which, first class, 21,702 ; second clan, 70,373 ; third class, 128,258; military and by trains extraor dinary, 2,457. Of luggage, 5,635 metrical quintals were carried ; of coach parcels, 21,016 ; coach packages, by weight, 32,287 metrical quintals; of bales and heavy carriers' goods, 78,226 tons. THE CoußT.—This • , at 20 min. to 10, the Court left Buckingham Palace for Osborne-house, isle of Wight. The royal cortege consisted of three carriages and four, with outriders, escorted by a detachment of Lancer.. The royal party arrived at the Nine Elms terminus at 10 o'clock, and was received by Mr. Chaplin, M.P., the chairman, Mr. Reid, Mr. Lacey, Mr. Townahend, and ether directors, Mr. Campbell, the secretary, and Mr. Stavin, the manager of traffic. The train, which consisted of five carriages, the royal carriage being in the centre, and tastefully set out with bouquets, was propelled by the Mazeppa engine, a locomotive mad* solely under the direction of Mr. Gooch, the head of the locomotive department, and who on this occasion drove her. Mr. Chaplin, M.P., and Mr. Stavin accompanied the Queen, who was expected to reach Gosport at a quarter past twelve. THE FACTORY BlLL—Yesterday a deputation, con sisting of some of the delegates from the manufacturing dis tricts of the north of England, waited on Lord John Russell, and presented him with 83 memorials from as many short time committees and associated bodies of factory workers and traders. They also presented the following letter from Lord Ashley . " March 2, 4847. My Lord,—Br desire of the short-tune committees of the counties of Lancaster and York, I have the honour to present to your lordship their several memorials, praying that the long-agitated question of the Ten Hours Bill may be speedily settled. Your lordship will observe that many memorials are added from artisans and mechanics, expressive of their sympathy with the operatives in factories. Your lordship will also be good enough to observe that the memorials state the desire of the working people to leave the matter of wages to be de termined by the demand and supply of labour, and that they are reedy, with a view to the permanent settlement of the question, to accept a period of 11 hours for the experi ment of the limitati on , an d defer the period of 10 hours until the benefit of the enactment shall have been ascertained by the experience of twoyears. I have the honour to be, my lord, your most obedient servant, ARMLET.—To the Lord John Rumen, M.P., First Lord of the Treasury.—l add a memorial from Mr. Irvin, the vicar of Leigh, Lancashire, and 12 other clergymen." TURNIP BREAD.—Knowing how few have hitherto cultivated beet -root, I have been induced to try how far bread made of Sw e d e t urn i p m i g ht be palatable, and I ROW feel no hesitation in recommending it as being ex- Went, and free from any of that unpleasant flavour whieh usually attends this rout. The proportions are m follows —To every 4 lbs. of flour, a& 8 lbs. of dip. cleaned and ready for boiling. Boil them quite colt, then squerre them through a cloth so as to take se much of the water from them as possible (because it is the water which causes the unpleasant taste), mash theta fine, and then rub them up with the Hour, putting the harm afterwards as you would for common household Moak bearing in mind that there will bee degree of mois t" *ill remaining from the turnip. The result the day after it came from the oven was, that it weighed 8 lbs. To br fully assured of the increase, I put at the same time into Me oven a loaf made of 4 lbs. of flour alone, which only Produced 51 lbs. The bread has been made upwards of 10 4 1 1 , and is now as sweet and nice as if it had only just ame from the baker's. I have prevailed upon some of my Po* neighbours to try it, and they have pronounced it good Ind eceacenieal.— F. G. L., is the Gardener's Chreriiefe. DCHAS ONCE AGAIN.—The following gem of to7typonclenc e has been published: B (e You insulted me the other day in the Chamber of "'Min Free to-day from all business engagements, I lead to you my friend, M. Viennet, Peer of France, Presi dent of the Society of Men of Letters, to learn the day, the rows, and the hour—( we give the conclusion in the original much, lest it night be supposed we exaggeraterl)—o; , it *mu ronnent gar nous emperors* la gorge.

" Marquis de MALsvILLe." / 4 ' COMMERCIAL Fr MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Half-past Two.—We have an extremely quiet mar ket in the funds this morning, and although prices have not been ostensibly depressed, except in the new Console Scrip, the tendency is rather to decline. That scrip is now quoted only 11 to 1 premium, or abeut 1 below the cloning prices of last evening. The contractors for the loan are evidently taking no 11•1113 at present to sustain or inl• lrove prime, but properly leaving them to ma k e their own evel. The scrip, doubtless, is already to a considerable extent placed in good hands, where it will be held, not for speculation, bat for investment. Alter the first instalment shall be paid up, for which Friday is the day, there may probably be more doing in the new security, as the weaker holders will then perhaps bring it to market. Consols are quoted 901 to I for money, and 904 to I for time. Reduced Thress,9ol to 1. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 92/ to 3. Exchequer Bills rather better, at 3s. to fie. pm. The foreign market was rather more activeto-day, without any considerable range of business. Spanish Bonds continue in decline, in . consequence of the new loan proposed to be rased in Spain, and the little hope that can now be enter tained of the government undertaking to redeem its faith towards the creditors of the foreign debt, by admitting the non-dividend paying portion of it to some, how e v e r all, allowance of interest. It is somewhat more than doubtful whether, indeed, that government ever m riously had the intention, notwithetanding the fiou risking assurances from Madrid. Spanish Fives have now fallen to 231 to 4, the Threes to 344 to 4. Finnigan, are 331 to 44. Mexican, 22 to Dutch Stocks have improved, the Two-and-a-Half per Cents, to 684 to 9, the Fours to 924 to 3. -- The meeting of the proprietary of the London and West minster Bank woe held this morning, when a very satiafac tory report of business was read. In result, • dividend at the rata of 6 per cent. per annum was declarA for the half year, with a bonus of 2 per cent. to the shareholders des. It was resolved further to all up the remainder of the subscribed capital, making the real paid up capital one million. The shares are understood to have advanced after the meeting, but no quotations have yet transpired. Soak Sipa, lON N S tor Cs.Osenis for Jest, foil S per Ca.

LAW OF SETTLEMENT. The Duke of RICHMOND, pursuant to notice, moved the appointment of • select committee of inquiry into the operation of the Poor Removal Act. The noble duke said that as this motion was not opposed, it would be unnecessmi7 for bhn to preface it by many observations. The act re ferred to was passed last session, and be believed there were scarcely two persons in the kingdom who were agreed as to the way is which it should Ice carried out. Even the framers of the bill admitted that they were totally unpre pared for the construction which the law-officers of the crown had pu; upon it. He regretted that parliament should have been induced to pus an act upon winch no one could put a satisfactory interpretation, and he concluded by moving that a committee be appointed. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE assented to the appoint ment of the committee, for which he thought there were good parliamentary sessions. Lord BROUGHAM observed that acts of parliament were too often framed with the least possible can and accu racy : in fact, it seemed to him that there must he a class of regular " act of parliament makers," who employed their scission in cutting one clause out of one act, and another out of another, and pasting them together anyhow in order to make a new statute. (Laughter.) Some of the acts talked of something " hereinbefore provided," when no provision whatever had been made, and others 'poke of "the clauses aforesaid," in their very preamble or first line. Their sets were so bad as fully to justify the remark of Lord Ten- terden, when he found it difficult to interpret some such 'statute as the present : " We cannot say that the leztalature is loop s conci/ii, but certainly it is magus. niter opes inops. For his own part he thought they would nens r get acts of parliament well drawn until they had a board spe cially appointed to assist the legislature in preparing them. Lord CAMPBELL concurred in the propriety of appoint ing the committee, but begged their lordships not to con deem the bill because it was badly drawn. It was paseed by the other house after grave deliberation, end its object was mainly to assimilate the law of Breland, with respect to eettlaosen toa law in Scotland which had bees found to week LerilinelTaPlT wid ths fault of this act was that It just °emitted to do the very thing it proposed to do. It gave no settlement whatever. Lord CAMPBELL agreed in opinion that the bill did not go far enough in giving a permanent settlement, but raid that it wu a step in the right direction. The Duke of RICHMOND said he gave no opinion on the merits of the bill, though he certainly did not wish to be understood u assenting to its principle. The motion was then agreed to, and the committee wu appointed. RAILWAYS IN IRELAND. Earl FITZ WILLIAM then rose to P resent a petition from the grand jury of Athlone, praying that measures might be taken to stimulate the employment of labour in Ireland by the construction of railways. While the rental of Ireland oscillated between 13,000,0001. and 18,000,0001., he believed that the loss arising from the failure of the po tato crop did not amount to less than 25,000,0001., which was equal to a loss of 100,000,0001. in this country ; and nothing could be more erroneous than the impression pre vailing in this country that the evil was only temporary in its nature. A great deal of unmerited obloquy had been east upon those who had proposed the late public works. If those works had not done all that was expected, they had certainly provided employment for about half aanillion of the population. The aim of the legislature should now be to make Ireland a better machine for the production and employment of capital. To wait until English capital flowed into the country would be to wait until the country was ruined. He had no wish to undervalue the advance of 1,500,0001. ; but there was • general disposition to overvalue it. The number who could derive any advan tage from it was exceedingly small. The sum proposed, if equally apportioned, would only allow 19d. per statute acre. Those who would obtain the greater part would probably be the persona who stood least in need of assistance. The man who was in bad circumstances would not venture to put in a claim. The mortgagee upon Irish land amounted on an average to at least 60 per cent. Let him suppose a land lord to have 20,000 acres, the gross rental from which was 10,0001. a-year. Ile appealed to any noble lord whether a loan of lees than 10,0001. would make any impression upon such an extent of land. The estate being al ready charged to the extent of 6,0001. a-year, if the individual borrowed 10,0001. he would be charged with the additional annual payment of 6.50/. Would any prudent man in the receipt of only 4,0001. ayear from an mate, tke rental of which was 10,0001, a year, incur an additional burden of 6501., the charge being imme diate, while the bereft was only prospective ? lie thought that no prudent man would do so. He regretted that the proposal of the Irish gentry to substitute reproductive faun- productive works hail not been acceded to. It had been stated that former advances made to Ireland had not been repaid. There could be no greater mistake than that made by thaw who joined in the cry that Ireland was one of the richest countries in the world. The error was one which had originated in Irish vanity, and had been fostered by English credulity. (Laughter.) Their lordships might depend upon it that the land of Ireland was not at all comparable to the rich lands of England. Ireland must act be left in her present position by the richest country in the world ; she mast be raised to • level with the more favoured parts of the empire ; and, although eight or nine millions might appar a large sum to be given in charity, he believed that, without further assistance, there would be a prolonga bon of the present scene of desolation and distress, and that the country would never survive. Earl GREY admitted that the advance of 1,500,0001. would not alone be adequate to meet all that was required by the present state of Ireland ; but there were other measures in preparation, one of the most important being that of hie noble and learned friend on the wool sack for facilitating the improvement of encumbered estates by enabling the owners to sell a portion. To take the very case put by the noble earl . if the gentleman who had an estate of 10,000/. a year were enabled to sell sufficient to pay off the charge of 6,0001., he might come into the pos. session of an unencumbered estate which he could improve ; and, what was of still more importance, land would be brought into the market, which was at present compara tively useless. (Ilear, hear.) lie believed that there was a large amount of capital in Ireland itself which might be brought into operation by the adoption ofjudicious measures. His noble friend had spoken of the advantages derived in some former cases from advances for public works. The acts under which those advances were made were still in operation, and public money might, therefore, still be applied with equal benefit. A dangerous fallacy ran through the whole of his noble friend's epenh, namely, that Ireland was to look to England and to the English government for the means of improve ment rather than to herself. There could be no more dan gerous delusion, for no country could be forted into a state of prosperity by the assistance of another. (Hear, hear.) Perseverance and industry, and the savings of small earn ings applied from generation to generation by private Judi vidn'als upon works of permanent advantage, had made this country the prosperous country it was. He did not agree with his noble friend, that Ireland was naturally a poor country, and, in proof of that, he would refer him to the work of Sir R. Kane "On the industrial resources of Ireland." Ile did not mean to amen that rocks existed for me/1y in all parts of England, but he could assure his noble friend that in Northumberland and in Scotland a great deal , had been done in removing rocks and boulders of granite from the soil. If England had n existed it would not be maintained that Ireland might not become a prosperous country. It would be a libel on nature to say so. He therefore regretted the tone of tear depeadence on England which pervaded his noble friend's speech. He believed that nothing more than well-applied industry and perseverance were required to make Ireland as rich u the country which they inhabited. (Hear.) Lord MONTEAGLE said there wasmuch in the speech of his noble friend who had just spoken, in which he concerred. lie admitted that Ireland must depend for her prosperity on her own resources : but there were works of a large dame ter which surpassed the power of individuals, and which it was the duty of a paternal government to undertake. In Scotland such works had been undertaken by the aid of par liament with the best results. He entirely concurred with his noble friend near him (Earl Fitzwilliam) as to the great ness of the present evil in Ireland, and the inadequacy of the means employed to meet it. He asked their lordships whether the measures of the government approached to a remedy for the difficulties that surrounded Ireland ? His noble friend said, that a year and a half's value of the produce of Ireland had been lost. The rental of England in 1841 was 85,000,0001.; at present he believed it was 100,000,0001. Now, supposing that 160,000,0001. of the property of England had been destroyed would they be able to struggle through the difficulty, except by the interposition of the whole state ? He denied that they came to the English parliament. (Hear, hear.) They came to the imperial parliament to ask for that to which they had as good a right as any person who trod this country. (Hear, hear.) He did rot think there would be any safety unless some measures were taken by which the 500,000 men, who were now employed upon public works, could be withdrawn and more profitably occupied. Their lordships then adjourned at seven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY, MARcH 2. The grwma took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATZ BUS! r. 4688.. PIeTITIONS.—By kr.

For Kentucky Strips the demand has con tinued, at prices ranging from 3d. to 6d., which %at price is asked for something extremely fine. In tie finest qualities prices are firmly mainteined, but for inferior parcels sellers have been willing to meet buyers. Kentucky Leaf, of fair to fine quality, selling at 21d. to 3jd. Some small sales of Vir ginia'have been made at full prices. With prices at so low a point, many of them below the cost of produc tion, and with other causes tending so strongly to diminish the growth of American Tobacree, it is quite cer tain that the safest coupe for the trade is to keep well stocked, at least for the present year. Prices can scarcely go lower they may go much higher. Negrohead and Cavendish steady, and in fair demand. Havannah Cigars of g3eil qua lity have again sold readily at good figures but the demand has rather slackened, as many . of the trade arc tolerably stocked for the present. If the imports continue as good as some of the previous supplies, there will no doubt be a brisk business again shortly. Havannah Tobacco not sell ing very readily, except as fillers.

CORN.—MARK-LASE.—But little English Wheat has arrived since Monday; the few parcels of white left over from th►t day were saleable on about the same terms as then quoted. red English Wheat was in request, at rather more money, for export to France. Several buyers from that country appeared in Mark lane thus morning, who, in addition to effecting purchases of fo reign Wheat on the spot, also bought some 6,000 qrs. of Lincolnshire Wheat, at 76.. f.o.b. on the east coast, for immediate shipment to the Continent. Barley a dull sale, at Monday's decline. Foreign Oats continue to drop in freely from the near ports; and to make any progress in soles, a reduction of le per qr. had to be submihed to. Beans and Peas unaltered. LIVERPOOL, MARCH 2.-Although we have a continuance of east winds with frost, several grain vessels have arrived here coastwise, but from Ireland we bare nothing worth naming ; and from abroad the imports of the week ere on the whole very moderate. Our Corn Exchange to-day having been well attended by town and country =then, who with several Irish buyers wore rather active in the purchase of British and foreign Wheats, we hare to report a good extent of business in that branch of the trade, at a slight improvement upon the advance of Friday, thereby raising our quotations 2d. to 3d. per 701 b. above the rates of this day week. Flour in the early part of the market attracted litUe nouce, but becoming more lively afterward., the sales towards the close were rather considerable, prime brandsof American realising 425. per barrel. Barley and Malt upon a limited demand, , were each Is. to 2s. per qr. cheaper. Beans and Peas, moving sparingly into the hands of consumers, hardly sus tained late prices. In Oats or Oatmeal, no business was apparent, and had sales been practicable rather lower terms must have been conceded. Indian Corn on the spot, although in fair demand, was taken lest eager:y to-day than heretofore, and at a decline of ls, per quarter several floating cargoes, however, of this article and of Wheat have changt d ha ids, at full price., daring the week.

Dlll46didlE — wishedtoput — ; . question to the right hoe. baronet, the Secretary for the Home Department, relative to a petition he had presented on a former evening, complaining of the manner in which certain magistrates of the county of Lancaster had exercised their summary juris diction. Ile understood that the subject had been under the serious consideration of governmeet, and the object oe his question was to inquire whether the nsult of that con sideration was such u to render it unnecessary that be should bringthe subject under the consideration of the house. Sir G. GREY said that the consideration to which the hon. member bail adverted, had nothing whatever to do with the merits of the case. A second petition which his hon. friend had presented. contained an allegation cam pleining of informality in the mode of trial adopted in the eases of the four men alluded to in the first petition, who were charged with absenting themselves from the employ ment of Mr. Edlestom of Warrington. The law officers had pronounced the objection valid, and as tie only remedy would be a writ of certiorari to the Queen's Bench, he (Sir G. Grey) had thought the best thing to be done under the circumstances, wu to recommend a free pardon. He begged his bon. friend distinctly to understand that the par don had been granted without any refsrence to the merits of the case. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE.—I am perfectly satisfied that the magistrates acted illegally, and, therefore, I withdraw my notice. (Laughter.) NAVY ESTIMATES. - ---.—. Lord J. RUSSELL Mated that . it wu his intention to move the navy estimates after the Ordnance cetimates on Friday next. The noble lord further stated that he did not intend to take the Customs' duties on that evening. FREE CHURCH (SCOTLAND). Mr. BOUVERIE rose, pursuant to notice, to move for • select committee to inquire whether and in what part of Scotland, and under what circumstances, large numbers of her Majesty's subjects hod been deprived of the means of religious worship, by the refusal of certain proprietors to grant them sites for the erection of churches. Tee hon. meshes having detailed what bad been done in the matter in • sessions by the late Mr. P. M. Stewart andthe right hsa amber he NMI, premeds& to say low naiserthy he felt himself to follow in the footstep of either of those gentle men. One advantage, however, he possessed over both, and that was, that being of a different religious persuess . on from the persons whose grievances he represented. he could not be suspected of the slightest partiality. The house was aware of the circumstances out of which arose the disrup tion of the Scottish church in 1843. Since then, the ecteders had, in four year', collected for ecelesivetical purposes no lees • sum than L 251,0001. They had built 630 churches, and were building thirty more. They had established 430 ministers, besides two normal schools—one in Glasgow, and the other in Edinburgh, at an expert,. of 1,0001. each. To 190 other schools they had contributed 1001. each. He thought that a body which had given such proof of its ear nestness and oineerity, woe entitled to at lean a fife hearing in that house, more especially at the present time, when their exertions to arrest the famine raging in Ireland and part of Scotland wereso distinguished. (Hear, hear.) The free church community in Scotland was the first body which took steps to investigate the amount of dietrese, to ascertain where it was heaviest, and to make efforts to relieve it in Scotto:4. To prove this, he need only refer to page 212 of the correspondence, which had been published, and in which the Lord Advocate, writing to the Secretary of the Home Department, stated that the free kirk had raised 8,0001. for the dist...see, and that their sub scriptions would amount to 15,0001.—• sum far exceeding anything that had been before collected for similar purpoece. All this community asked was toleration, the same as was extended to every other branch of tie Christian church. They merely sought to carry on their religious worship, but they were prevented, by being in so many instances refined eke. for building churches. Ile should mention a few cant, to show how the members of the free church hail been treated in this particular. There were on the Doke of 13uocleuch's property, two villages—Canobie, in Dumfriesshire, and Wanloek Head, on the borders of Lanarkshire. In the fleet of these places, the congregation, when the disruption took place, met of the cross-roads, and subsequently in a field belonging to hie grace. An interdict, hew. ever, disturbed them there, but ultimately they obtained permission to erect a tent in the field, and to carry on their wordqo, which they did for the space of three years. The people at Wanlock Heed were lees favoured. It was the highest inhabited ground in Scotland, en high that oats were merely grown y green food for rattle. This place contained a population of 700 people, seven-eighth. of whom adhered to the free church. The congregation had, in the brat in stance, erected a tent, but it was subsequently destroyed by the weather ; since then they had met in the open air. Thew clergyman who had left the establishment at the time of the disruption was still teaching his congregation, while he had hardly a resting-place for his head. His family resided at a distance of thirty 12111 CA, while ho himself inhabited a single room nine feet square. A letter which he (Mr. Bouverie) had received from an eye witness, informed him, that on one occasion, when Dr. Candlish war to preach, the congregation met in a ravine, a sentry-box bring placed fur the clergyman. During the service the congregation were drenched with rain, and uncle-deep in mud. fhe minister told them to plane some planks, which lay near, under their feet, hut they refused, alleging that they would not touch the property of the Duke of Buceleuch. Such was the state of the tenants upon the estates of the Duke of Buceleuch, and such had been their condition for the period of four years, si,ce the rupture with the Establiebed Church. He would contrast the conduct of the noble duke, a dissenter from the Beta blished Church of Scotland, with that of the Earl of Aber deen, one of its members. It wax well known that the latter nobleman used every means in his power, as a member of the late government, to stay the movement of the free church party; but so soon as the severance took place, be was among the gut of the landowners of Scotland to grant sites for building places of worship to those persons upon his 'Mates who wished to worship God according to the forme of the Free Church of Scotland. The Duke of Bum deuces had erected a magnificent chapel at Dalkeith, where worship according to the rites of the Episcopal Church wax celebrated with all the pomp+ of the rubric. yet he refused to grant to others the right of worship which he claimed for himself. These two CM" host reference to the Lowlands; but he now came to the Hig•ilande, in which similar pro ceedings had been going forward. in the Wand, of Skye and Lewis, there was a large property owned by Lord Mac donald. On this property there were 4,000 persons be longing to the Free Church, yet his lordship had thought fit to refuse these people any sites for their chapels; thus practically prohibiting the liberty of public worship. in the neighbourhood of Arduanourchan, Sir James Riddell had a property about 40 miles in length by five mile, broad. It was in the north-west of Argyllshire. There were 1,100 people belonging to the Free Church, and Bir James Rid dell was himself • dissenter from the Established Church, yet he refused extending the right he claimed himself to others. In Strathspey there was a tract of country 30 miles long and 15 broad, with from 1,000 to 2,000 persons belonging to the Free Church. The proprietor wan the Earl of Seafield, and he had oleo refused sites. So that the people had to worship in the open air. In another district in the Western Highlands., Harris, 4,000 percent were obliged to worship in the open air. In the island of Mull they were obliged to celebrate the ordinances of their common Christianity in a place where cattle were housed. Now, these were some of the CSSC where this body had a right to complain of the inconvenience to which they were subjected, and lie trusted that the recital of them wou,d in duce the house to sanction the proposition he made for en in. quiry into them. What were the consequences of this state of th[ngs ? There was, (lest of all, the evil to which he had adverted, namely, that a large body of the people were pro hibited from decently worshipping 13od ; end, in addition to this, which was an evil of no ordinary magnitude, there was great tion and acerbity towards thou who had occa sioned a deprivation. On the other head, he would ?suture to say, that those proprietors, who, like the Earls of Stair and Aberdeen, had granted sites, would experience no want of affection and respect. (Hear.) In those districts of the Western Highlands where the distress was the deepest and where the fiercest destitution existed, the people were in consequence of the refusal of the pro prietors to grant Otos in effect prohibited from meeting together to pray God to mitigate their sufferings. What he asked for was a committee before which he might sub stantiate the statements he had made. It was not for him now to enlarge upon the remedies he would propose, but upon that point he might observe that he went the full length of the bill proposed lot year by his right bon. friend (Mr. Fox Maule) foe giving powers to a judicial authority to compel the prrantiug of sites for the erection of churches in connexion with theirs, church when such interference might be rendered necessary by the refusal of the proprietors. The legislature had already sanctioned the principle of inter ference with the right of property in cases where the public health was concerned, as in the Metropolitan Buildings Act and the Commons Enclosure Act, and also where the public convenience wee served, u in railway sets--how much more should they do so when the object was the re ligious instruction of a large portion of their fellow subjects ? Then was a precedent still more directly in point in the power given to the court of session, in dinding i parishes and establishing user parochial divisions, to take compulsion the land of the heritors to the extent o four acres for the porpoise of erecting places of worship. This power being thus admitted with respect to the established church of Scotland, he did not see why some such facilities should not be extended to the free church. He would not further enter into the question of remedy—he had stated the grievances of which he complained—he hoped without giving offence to any one—( hear, hear)—and having, as he thought, made out a case for inquiry, he would leave the matter in the hands of the house. Mr. BWART seconded the motion, for which he con tended that the feet of a grievance being shown to exist with which parliament wu competent to deal wu a sufficient ground. The question having been put, Sir G. GREY observed that the question to which his hen. friend had called their attention had been on two for mer occasions brought under the consideration of parliament, and he hadhoped that the discunions which then took place, and the opinions then declared, would have rendered anv further appeal to the house unneeeesary. (Hear.) He had hoped that those proprietors (comparatively few in number) who had up to that time refused to grant sites, would have acted upon the advice tendered to them, and been influenced by the opinions then expressed by those in authority ; and he alluded especially to the opinions of the right hon. but. who at the time was Secretary for the Home Department (Sir J. Graham), and who, on the first occasion when the question wu brought forward by his lamented friend, Mr. P. M. Stewart, expressed his hope that if the statements then made were true, a speedy remedy would be applied without the interference of parlia
