Tax sort of preliminary debate which took place last night on Lord PALMERSTON ' S motion for leave to bring in a Parliamentary Oaths Amendment Bill, though brief in its duration and limited as to the number of those who took part in it, was not with out features of interest. The speech of the P al men was eminently characteristic. There was, in deed, nothing comprehensive in its conception or lofty in its tone. There were no historical allusions or ethical criticisms of the kind we have been se moaned to on the introduction of etch subjects by a leader of the House or a head of Administration. There were no fine analogies, no impressive pleadings against the futility and folly of legislative fanati cism; and there was no attempt at the development of a scheme at once simple and complete, popularly obvious in Hamstrung, and politically free from minor objections. But Lord PALME RSTON'S s p eech was vigorous, full of common sense, and level to the capa cities and prejudices of his hotter'. He said a little about the profanity, and a good deal about the &bear dity, of swearing hard against the Pretender, and the obsolete dogmas of the Jesuits concerning the killing of Kings. It was certainly a shame, to say nothing etas bring a sin, to make oath perpetually against defunct dynasties and doctrines ; and warming se he proceeded with his denunciation of the practice, his Lordship declared with more than ordinary emphasis that no gentleman could go through the form of being sworn at the table with out being conscious of the peculiar emotion which Lord P•Lairearox described as being indicated by " en inward blush? Of what that singular symptom mats we do not pretend to say, and the Pants Mowry= did not explain. But most people will readily understand what he meant to say ; and the only wonder is how in the nineteenth watery mix hundred and fifty educated gen tlemen can be induced, not only to tolerate, but to take part in the blasphemous mummery which they are called upon to enact as the indispensable preliminary to the assertion of legislative rights. Bythe Bill which Lord PALMERSTON has obtained leave to bring in, the three oaths of allegiance, supremacy, and abjuration are to be condensed into con The process of condensation is ler rapid than we could wish, and the amount of triathlons matter eliminated is less than could be dented. We are still to have something too mush sheet that tiresome old woman the Electron SOPER of Hanover ; and considerably more than is moss leery for any good purpose about the ecclesiastical prerogatives of our Sovereign Lady the Qtmere, Why our Members of Parliament should not be celled upon to make affidavits that they will pre- Nerve trial by jury, the writ of talent corpus, sad the hereditary peerage, as well as certain odds and ads Of the prerogatives of the Crown, we never could understand. The only proposal we ever beard upon the 'dint, which seemed to us to be really defensi ble is policy and in tenon, was that made by Lord 101111 REASELL, in 1851, whereby one short and simple oath of allegiance, to be taken, without dis tinction, by all the members of the House, would have been substituted for the piebald and pat chwork swearing now in use, which to a considerable, though somewhat diminished, extent sums still likely to be pesserved. For reasons which the Pumitra did not explain, the Roman Catho lics are to be left in the damaging and detri mental position in which the oath of 1829, end the Tailing constructions conscientiously pat noon its teems, have placed them. Fee the rest, Protestants of all denominations and Jews ate to take the lame oath in future, the distinctive weeds • hitherto insisted upon—" on the true faith of a Cluistian "—being omitted. We cannot say much for the workmanship of the new oath, bat that it is nu improvement, and a great step in the right direc tion, it is impossible to deny. air FRIDIMIC 'PIIZSIGER, true to his vocation as glantian of the orthodoxy of the House of Com mons, rotated of course spinet the change pro- THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 16 1857. posed. The hon and learned member feels no doubt, as the Lord Bishop of &JUMPILY would my, that be is the lineal MIIIMIO/t to that venerable and piety senator, Sr. ROBERT INGLIS ; and the cheers which greeted him es often as be appealed to l the latent intolerance that still larks in a large por tion of the How, proved that he will have many tellowers,when, on the soma reeding of the Bill, he endeavours to procure its absolute rejection. His apes& abut night consisted of a renovative re• I AM, u various neemuree introduced from time to tins by Lord JOSS Muni for the essancips• Min sells Jews. He reproached that noble lad bring gradually opened the door of concession tai more widely, end with having at last lopped altogether the reservations which he had Made at first with regard to the holding of .stain offices by members of the Hebrew monsannion. Sir Fiume= thought fit, mere ow to indulge in a reiteration of the Somewhat stale sareames frequently directed whet Lord Joan Humus respecting the ambit- Mr alleged to have been given him by the Jews in ilaskii and in retaining hie mat for the City of Zia Uri Jones's reply on both points was geed taste sad good temper. He quoted t t l a sl ie lffimion of Mr. CIINNLIO when similarly k be. latter days on the Catholic question, " dab be yr sot bound to spend all his life as a •••••tbrmarar r and that if people bad not the nave to see what they ought to have seen in time they must take the conce iving% oil AU at last to augmented demands. As kr lin seposeentation of the City, Lord JOUR matertei himself with the dignified and decisive obeervatises, that when first elected, in 1841, Baron Moreescirmn was not even spoken of as a candidate ; sad that when last elected, in 1837, be, Lord JOLLY, badateod alone,while Baron Amason LD stood as the idingue in candidature of three other gentlemen. The - sable lord disclaimed with disdainful good limlor the imputation that he regarded with Pskov Lord PALIIIMITON'S taking charge of the Bill. He knew that sinless it were brought forward I and supported with the whole power of the Govern ment there was no chance of its being tarried; and, being sincerely melons that the measure should par this session, he pledged himself to be in his place on the second reading, for the purpose of supporting it to the utmost of his ability. We trust that every independent Liberal will do likewise. Tax question as to the Equalisation of the Poor Rate in the Metropolis seems destined to give rise to a very considerable agitation; an agitation not likely to be diminished by the fact that the most pro. minent advocates of the movement are the pro. I chial c lergy. To these gentlemen at least it Is impossible to deny the praise of dieinterestedness. They bestir themselves in this matter simply becamm they see the !miaow effects of the present system es the poor within their parishes end the cruel opera tion el the law upon the perorate ot property. l i 2110 languid devotees of decorum may be scandalised be led a clergyman presiding at public mectiage, W getting up petitions and remonstrances to Par- Sunset ; but for oar part, in a cause so vitally I I important as this question of the Poor Rates is, we hold it a clear duty of any man—whether eke gyman or layman—to protest against the con tinuance of a system which is fraught with &arra lariat to the lower classes, and likely to spade, class enmity end discontent. We rejoice, therefore, to see that another public meeting of the ratepayers of St. Jobe and the ad joining parishes was held two days ego at Hackney, fee the purpose of considering the equalisation of the Pow Rate. Meetings of this sort have of late bees very numerous, end the Rev. 0. H. M'Cia.t. has upon this last oemaims, es indeed upon many previous occasions, produced some very striking facts in support of the prop osed I chop in the law. The poor clams with I when be is brought into contact are labouring eills. mid in London they are by no MOM remark ails far providence. They live from head to mouth, and the moment they are attacked by sickness, or the demand for labour diminishes, recourse is hail to the poor-law board of the district. The number of those who are compelled to apply for relief at one place is enormous ; and this inconvenience is caused in a greet measure by the law, which, by preventing honer of an inferior description from being built in various quarters, drives the labourer to the eastern districts. Mr. M'Olti, tells us that he has had as many as 13,000 under his superintendence. in the winter of 18M, which was very severe, the appli. entices for assistance to him were at the rate of 100 a week. And how were they relieved? We seed MA dwell on the fact that these miserable Wear were obliged to scramble for their sub sistence, like men struggling into the pit of a 1 tbsstre—that in this mike, whilst the strong, and 1 16, who could push their way through the crowd at lie weirkliseee gates, got assistance, the spa, ile Yeah MA the weak went empty away. Nor mil re dwell es the fact that even the relief, when It In obtained. amounts to a bare means of keep ing body and oral together, amounting, accord * to Mr. Willa, to Is. and one loaf of bread awing the week for each individual, whilst at the West-end the same poor sea would set Ir. 011, ad a loaf of bread. We won dilate ram thy wretched aureant of aid as gra lee way in which it is ainialatmal. lis pear la mew awe for the imperative organ, I I at 11116 TM 41111bO alt that in the veep winter el Mt, the Perratate in those palpstipasphi pukka amounted le la in the potust—si from lossettai the rate path Weet-end parishes. Again, me bsen 1 that in foutesa poor parishes, having a NEM el 48241., the expenditure on account of Pm Pita , MOS 11,3681. ; whilst in fourteen di parbian 1 laving a rental of 172,6701., the acpenditure ea the same account was 0,04 W. Thus is the ham case the average expenditure was Se. 21., lad in the latter 9d. Again, the whole paddle et St. Christopher's, comprising within its Was the Bank of England and other great build ings, pays in Poor Rate about 801., while the Apotho ;meld Hall alone, situate in a back lane in Black flies* pp MI. Again, the greater number of leek labium , are connected with the London and St. Katharine's Docks. The former, which are Muted in four pariahs', pay toward the Poor Rate 19,6801., whilst the latter, which are situated in a wealthy part of the metropolis, pay only 7141. One more case and we have done. In St. Nicholas Olave the Poor Rate amounts to Bs. in the pound. What is the result ? Property there can neither be let nor sold; and indeed it is no uncommon practice for persons to leave such heavily taxed parishes, and to betake themselves to those MOTO lightly burdened. We have stated these facts in detail became the question es to equalising the Poor Rate is eminently a question of fact. No one, we presume, if he had to make a sew law, would think of enacting one which would give rime to inequalities so membeem as those we have described. We have arm spin and spin that the present system roast lead to the demerelisatien of the poor ; and this view is eoutinsed by the testimony of those who have had practical experieses cities matter, and who upend their lives ameept the victims of this sordid legislation. But there is a principle at the not of the proposed change. It is surely impossible to say that the poor man living in Southwark has as little to do with the nobleman in Belgrave-equare as the shepherd in Caithnem. It is just as easy to maintain that the lard of some ancient domain has nothing to do with the poor villagers at his gate, or that the rich man in Romell-square has nothing to do with the denizens of the Seven-dials. The men hat that the charities in the the Eas butit-enonsd are of eapparted in Kees masers by contri the West end is an answer to it. In truth, it is obvious enough that Louden, within a certain dis trict, forms one community—just as much as a parish, or even a single household, forms one com munity or society. Them is, indeed, an objection which we sometimes hear node to the proposed change—namely, that by ea doing existing con tracts will be altered, and groin injustice will be perpetrated. A man, it is said, having calculated his income, and having ascertained the probable amount of his expenditure, and amongst other charges the charge for Poor Rate, takes a house upon lease. The matter is ooncladed. What right, then, has the Legislature to step in and say that the Poor Rate shall be equalised—to compel one, who can ill afford it, to pay an additional sum for Poor Rate--to my that instead of Bd. in the pound the tenant shall pay Is, Bd.? As it seems to us, the answer to this objection is simple enough. If the Legis lature is never to alter a tax union it can do so without the slighted hardship, it will never alter any tax whatever. The man who has bought an article when the duty was 10s. is not to bo heard against a reduction of this 1 0 . , to Os. merely because future importers will be able to undersell him. Individual inconvenience or low must yield to the general good. If the evils of the present system of the Poor Rate are as great as we believe them to be, those who would suffer by the equalisation must console themselves by the reflec tion that they are suffering for the sake of those who poorer and needier than themselves. SIR R. Bern= declares that when he has got the papers on the Royal British Bank swindle from Mr. LIMILLATID, he will lose no time " in investi gating the matter," adding that if he feels essi esinstimee to institute a criminal prosecution, a Mk Rilletanee arises entirely from the cora sesets oldie public press, which render a fair and impartial trial impassible." This is in few words mere fudge. Months ago Lord Justioe KNIGHT Bence, in delivering judgment in that Court where Sir It. Barium. is the leading practitioner, had de nounced in the moat unmitigated terms of indignation " that thing ironically called the Royal British Bank." Mr. LINDLATEWS admirably conducted examinations have dragged forth the facts of the miserable swindle into the broad light of day, enabling the public, without comment, on the simple report of each day's proceedings, to form their own jadgmene on the whole of the case. Finally, Mr. Commissioner HOLDOTD, in the singularly able judgment reported yesterday in oar columns, has drawn up a sort of judicial indictment, under six heads, against the culprits. The learned Commissioner declares the Directors to be open to one or more of these charges:-1. Commencing business before all the shares were subscribed for. 2. Making, declaring, and publishing false balance-sheets. 3. Declaring dends when no profits had been made. 4. Conspiring to raise the prioe of the shares of the company by illegal means. 5. Conspiring, when in a state of insol vency,to obtain a supplemental charter. 6. Making repeated gross misapplications of the funds of the bank by large loans to the directors, &c. Such are the heeds of Mr. Commissioner 1101.110TWS indict ment. Is the judgment of the learned Commissioner " one of the reports and statements appearing in the public newspapers" which inspire Sir It. Ihrrvticc with so great a reluctance to institute a prceeentionf No doubt the offence for which alone the law in its present state affords a remedy is " ill-defined and elastic"—no doubt the law must be forthwith altered the better to meet this scandalous clam of public wrongs ; but Sir R. BETHELL will be inexcusable if he does not exert to the very uttermost the confess edly inadequate powers with which the law arms him, for the terror at least, if not for the adequate punishment, of these notorious evil-doers.

A letter from Vienna, in the Bourse Camila of Berlin, says;—" Several conferences have been held this week between Prince Callimaehi and Count de Bnol, at the last of which Sir Hamilton Seymour was present. In spite of the agitation in the P. cipalities, no fear is entertained here with respect to the success of the partisans of the union, and the cabinets of Vienna and London are engaged in drawing up, in concert with the Porte, a reform of the institutions of the Principalities which may satisfy the legitimate demands of that party. We learn, in fact, that Lord Clarendon and Count de Baol have como to an understanding on a vas liberal project, which, while maintaining the wpm. tion of the governments of the Principalities, will provide for a joint military, judicial, postal, sad customs administration. Above all, it is necessary to obtain the consent of Turkey to this plan, sal she will not probably reject it." FRANCE. PARIS, TEMA EVENINO.
