The Bishop of OXPORD prossated petitions against the Reveal Code of Mclocate" sad third that if the hoar was to deal with the qualm by way of resolution, as machinery mired fur resoeciling that resolution with ens which might be adored by the other house of parharesit. Bat a discuosioe might him so mall influence on pub& openina, sad heed to show that the revised cods was founded our very fallacious principles, both as regarded the rib it proposed to remedy, and the maser in which that remedy was to be carried out, while its provisions worn with two excrtioas, quite illusory and at workable. He did not think that the vote fee education was at all excessive, but it roost be ecotone& that the results obtained were not equivalent to the mosey im pended. Nor was he favourable to a nem which laded to place the education of the country preetically is the heads of the government ; and in his opinion the popes of satirical Wartime depended more on its pitapat ration by various denominations than by mesas of say central authority. He was opposed to legtalatim melee ie • matter where it would tend to fetter private efforts. and up to the present time the principles adopted bad tended to make public aid • 'timid= to private exertion. He objected to the plan laid slows by the new code, by which the easminatime on which grants were to depend were restricted to reading, writing, and arithmetic, but thought that the peesonal ex amination of pupils was an important point, and therefore he approved at the present system of inspection, carried on by men of elevated tone of mind and religious feeling. The system of pupil teachers sod raking schools was toothier an experiment to afford any test of its ultimate sneer Nevertlwlem, by the monad cods they were to be abolished. He objected to the principle of a capitation grant ia an 014038, as it was calculated to check the poems of education. The age which was hued for the examination of children was not • proper one, and it would operate unfavourably on the poorer schools, which most required the assistance of the state. Earl GRANVILLE was understood to express hie deep regret that the Duke of Newcastle, who was the chairman of the Royal Counnesiceers, and who had been anxious to take part in the o s i l n iould have bees prevented from being pretes t indisposition. It had been gratifying to him to leer the right rev. prelate all that could he opposed to the pressat revised code, and it wee char that - these wbe objected to the is lined code were sot weed amass themselves as to Mao course which they would take ow the resolutions to be pro posed to the house on • future evening. The right rev. prelate said very plainly that if there existed any Demorty for ecosoisiy, the present code would, if carried nut, not met more than 2,0110,0E4 to the country. Now, if it were peeved is practice that the children of the humbler classes could not be properly educated without spending 2,000,0001. spas them, be would endeavour to persuade the govern mat to ask partiamost lee that sum. The right rev. prelate had spoken is pest prelim of local even :ages over the wheels est against a central an. thorny, and this was whet the revised code aimed at whet they threw opus the mageorte of the schools a larger amount of remoseibility. The right rev. prelate oint isornprisiel of the goverment innentor, but he, for one. could bear witness to the may advantages they had been to the cause of educative seam the labouring classes of this country. He believed that late system of inspection sad examination of the emall schools had extended 'dna. tioo generally, sad it was net ameseary that they should ham double gent ekes INS and senior wranglers for the purpose of empathised* eke ethatioatioes. The right rev. prelate then complaieed that children at nine years of age should leave school, bat be Wee sn it stated by Lord break, sad the Earl of 'Martian that the chiklrea would Imes at nine. tee and awes years of age, and that they would not be kept WSW et school in opposition to the claims foe the mutts el et& labour which the family had epos them. Then, as to ethaiag or night which the ripe re mkt* mid the revised we clommq ; he (Earl Gmaellie) thought they would be the that peesege math el preveMieg the children front fiat. getting the Mae they had leant in the day whoa& The right row. prelate then toothed upon tee subject of the training marl" gad he (Earl Granville) thought that some of the argerthate used were dangerous to the training colleges. The prepared system, as regarded these estab lishment.. was objected Men the ground of politiotl eco nomy. The artier, it WOO said. ought to be loft to find It, market value. How was that to be amertaioed ? Was it by goring NO or MI per cent. of the met of prod the article, and then selling it for nothing le the net'? hmr.) If that system was to be serried is ear after 7"t -the ureters themaelves- may of whim wen soillaisted with the science of political monseey-weeld sot approvers it. The thief Aintree mpg afar* the revised code wan that it was too Mealy peeper& It was mid that, even if • change should be made, IS should set be brought forward in so hurried a manage Be, fur .se, t 1 at think that the manner had been so hark& and he believed that • change Iron "I la= I s t it ought to be made ssoca am deferred until from the number of perm te he dealt with it would be almost initossible to effete it. (Rear, hew.) Parliament had directed • coaminsiee of imp:ley to linen the womb/sneers sent their wreathes iato every path el the country ; they sat for three yam; thum agh dis= bee months subsequently that report wee for comoderstios, sad a system peopend which was sot to come into operation for a year. Hew thee meld romplaist be with justice mole on the gresset at hare! He (Earl Gerson.) would sot detain their lordships longer, be hoving that whoa the revolutions on the subject of which sotice had been gives came on for dilemma, that would be the proper time to eater fully into the matter. All that had passed bad not Shaken his opinion that at • nest oppor tune moment • measure had bees brought in which ear in proniple just sod good, which was favourable to it, propagation and extrusion is the country of a mound dm. too:lean iodination - rood appreciated by parent... sad sant useful to the children, and which did not In the sligblist degree interfere with their soquirieg throe habits of order tad disciplioe, mot that more extensive knowledge, which the government would be must happy to nee continued and dittoed if the managers of wheels thought St to promote it, but which were not in themselves iedispensthle elements in the education of the children of the lalouring clauses. The Duke of MARLBOROUGH considered that an an swer had not been given by the noble earl to the very grave objeetious urged against the revised cola by the right reverend prelate. The Earl ot DERBY I wooer with the right rev. prelate is thinking that, as the case stands, it is more expellent we should lout from its disci...ion in the other home the view that that home may take ape the several provisions of the measure before we bind eareelvee to abstract resolutions ; and I add my earsest recommoodatior to that of the right rev. prelate, that my agile freed should postpone the kiwis, forward of the resointiose of which he has given notice. (Hear, hoar.) At the same time I think it of the start importance that your Md. ships should have the fullest and most fre. inset opportunities of eerie/in( and enlarging on the various matters which the right rev, prelate has laid before 116. le the Memos of any goverment resolutions it is per haps the sent IMO expedreut course that the salient point of the preposition should be brought under discunion in the other Honor of Parliament is the shape of resolutions ; and I rejoioe to find that -Although with some hesitation and vacillation -her Majesty's goverment have consented that the House of Comma...Medd go ieto committee of the whole house to cossider °semis resolutions on the subject. Is doing so, however, I think that her Majesty's government hove :dairies-I a great ponies of their own functions, be. muse they cast upon others • teak which they should them selves bane noilertaken, by bringieg the matter fully before the house in such • manner W. to enable parliament to pro nounce a decision upon it. There are many points on which it is most important diet parliament shouts preenume sioa ; there are other matters of minor detail, not iesignifirent or unimportom in themeless, hut stn which the opines of parliament cannot be taken is the form propene! ; sad therefore, even supposing that the scheme was taken with the resolutions and amerelmeets suggested, it would still be • very imperfect work. It.. not my intention to trouble your lordships further, more mpecithly as the noble earl opposite -perh.ps from a consciousness of the weakness of the 'sae which he has to support-has not given us the slightest answer to the &Orem, mimed by the right reve reuil prelate.

Immediately after the act the murderer sod his sworn plies were arrested. Be would avail 'tinsel( of this opmr task, to orstradiet a report which appeared to the public pram, that then was same animas la set having taken the murderer to De, Wearthy taideenfy hies. It sea prop:mod to de am but the isits thought the Idestillcation quite enMenall, and wished to spare him the pain of seeing his missdomer Y his last minessie. Immediately after the srember, regreematatiens were mode to Baron Ricasoli, who esprened herself with rested to the occurrence as =I ere who know him would have expected that be have expressed himself on such an occasion. The Drilla rundown at Pus mumbled and drew up a memorial soothed I. seeded languag which was perhaps excusable ander the eiterenamen, t ut the Italian government took envy means is brig the murderers to justice.

THE RECENT OUTRAGE AT MALTA. Mr. WEVOY salad the Under .Secretary of State for Pervign Affairs whether any information had been received that, previous to the late alleged outrages and insult beam offered to thedwellinpand permits of the Italian °ousel sail of Signor Parini, dainty to the Italian parliament, on the Ith and 10th February, at Yalta, the editor of the Ports. Arlie Meittee, Mr. Debmo, had sot been assaulted and severely hates with a bludgeon in his own house by Cap tain' Mei, ef the Sardinian cosu.of-war the Mossubseo, aa slaW I by his Ileatesset and some of his sailors, and whether Oapuis Dial end hie lieutenant had not been eenteeced imprisoasent, the captaie to three months, and his lieu tenant to two swaths, and whether the government had made say repremestatious to the Sardinian government in consequence of these proceedings. Mr. LAYARD regretted to say that the circumstances mentioned by the hon. member were true. It appeared that Captain Dint, conceiving himself aggrieved by some artiste In this bowl paper at Malta, oiled, accompanied by his lieutenant, at the house of the editor, and obtained admis sion to the room where the editor was seated with his • .. family, and there breakup severely. The captain and his lieutenant were tried by the court at Malta, and the captain was sentenced to three mouths' and the lieutenant to two month.e imprisonment. These ben' ewes were afterwudo commuted to a pecuniary toe, and the prisoners were re leased. but the governor afterwards thought it secassory to all the attention of Baron Biondi to on act so unworthy of Italian aims.

Therefore be thought it would be convenient that the house at its rising should ad journ until Thursday. the oommittees on private bale meet ing aotwithstanding the adjournment of the house. He moored that the house at its rising adjourn till Thursday. ADDRESS OF CONDOLENCE FROM MAYNOOTH. --- Mr. WHALLEY rose to oak the following question of the Chief Secretary for Ireland, of which be had given make :—Wlostbee he bad taken any sad what means to as certain whether the address of condolence lately presented to her Slnjesty, purporting to emaciate from the president, superiors, and studeute of Maynooth College, did in fact emanate from those persons! In order to justify putting the question he bad to remind the house that. there ap peared is the public journ►ls an address of condolence to her Majesty on the recent melancholy oocasinn from the president, superiors, and students of Maynooth College. He NM the statement with great surprise. Since that time be had received various communications stating that that address, which would make it appear that the college was Coral, was entirely at variance with the fart. Ile made that statement on authority greater than his own. (Cries Of "Name.") The boo. member for North Warwickshire. (laughter.) if the house would hear with him be would adduce better authority even than tle hon. ramble for North Warwic.kahire. The question which he bad on the paper was in consequence of rumours whirred reached him, and the truth of which he hod, to the best of übility, authenticated before he presumed to place the questiou on the paper. They had been ambediea, and SID some extent confirmed, by a declaration lately published is a newspaper celled the Nation, from which lie would take the liberty of quoting some extracts. The article purported ' to be a letter written on behalf of the students of Maynooth, and it said, "The framers of this address hid no authority whatever from us to speak our sentiments. Nay, they have gone in direct opposition to the wishes, as well as to the sentiments, of the community." Then tt west on further to say. " We now, sir, think it proper to dissociate our selves from them, and though it is not our province to coo demo thew, we shall be permitted to withhold our appro bation from an act which, so far am it includes us, we utterly disavow." And then allusion was made to the fact that the sacred place in which the 'amorist was presented to them prevented their expressing their dissent from it, contest. in the decided and energetic manner which their feelings would have prompted. It proceeded to say, "With these oonvictioes we cannot so far give the lie to our con sciences, nor are we capable of such an immense exer rise of bypooriey m le express ourselves sympathetic while we do sot feel so."

Sir E. PEEL was sure his boo. friend would say that he had nothing to do with this question.

That is • matter which the hoe. gentleman must settle between himself and his followers, who are about to attend at that tower which the hon. gentleman has built in his corner of his leased pre. wises in the county of Denbigh—(laughter)—but I must warn the hour that the hon. gentleman in reading that evi dence was playing off one of those old tricks which I heard him play the other day in Ireland, at the Rotunda meet -(bear, hear}—aid which he afterwards followed up in liootland. He goes about with that blue book, and he is ortisually quoting that song. (Laughter.) have heard that song read at full length in the Rotund() in Dublin ; for I was so fortunate as to resin • ticket to attend the meeting, where Mr. Whalley was advertised in red letters in the bill. (Laughter.) He appeared and taxed not only the Roman catho li c priests, but als o the Roman oatholic people of Ireland with disloyalty; sod I should gay that there could be no greater proof of their good humour than the fact that the hon. 'soilage= walked out of the building in a catholic city with • whole skin. (Cheers and laughter.) The boo. gentleman thought proper to read that song, and there was of course tremendous cheer ing and some laughter.

COLONIAL GOVERNMENT. Mr. A. MILLS rose to call the attention of the house to the report of the select committee of last semi= ea colocial military expenditure, and to move the fOlowhig reminisce : " That this house (while folly recognisiag the di of all portions of the British empire to imperial aid in their pro tectioc against perils arising from the consequences at im perial policy) is of opinion that colonies exercising the rights of self.government ought to undertake the main re sponsibility of providing for their own internal order and security." The hoe. gentleman rid the committee bed been most impartially selected, sod they had examined the beads of the military, the colonial, and the leancial std heads of the government. They had also celled as wit- OMNI many gentlemen both in official and Don-olliciial sites tie= • and he believed, in fact, that they had taken all the evidence which was accessible to them. The main con clueless of the committee had been unanimously agreed to; and his resolution was based upon those conclusion, so adopted. Mr. C. BUXTON, in seecediog the motion, said that the point of his hon. friend's in which he felt most in terest was, if they to the colonies the monument of their own defences what the effect would be on the free dom of the aborigiess. He admitted that it was much to the honour of the home government that they had showed themselves so sensitive towards the nations under their rule ; but it was yet open to doubt whether their policy as well as being • noble had been also • sound one. The feeling in the colonies was that we insisted on their union with us, not because it was • boon to them, but because it was an advantage to ourselves. He believed that the present system engendered discontent and jealousy ; and if we only put ourselves in the position of the colonists, and bad our defences provided for us by some foreign nation, we could easily understand how such feelings could arise. Mr. BAXTER moved to add to .the resolution the fol lowing words (as he thought it did not go far enough), " That such colonies ought to contribute towards the im perial military expenditure incurred in their external de fence, and that u • rule, and except in the case of great fortresses, no further charge ought to be made upon the imperial treasury for colonial fortifications." But he sub's queutly withdrew the latter part, and substituted for it words extending the resolution to the external defence of the colonies. Mr. C. FORTESCUE said that the government thought that the introduction of this subject was calculated rather to strengthen than to weaken their hands in any negotiations with the colonies in reference to the present system. The employ meet of British troops as a kind of domestic police for pre- serving internal order in the colon= was most objection able. Still there were some places where that course might be pursued with advantage, such, for instance, as the West India colonies, where the inhabitants were not purely English, but forming must heterogeneous communities, composed of various races and descendants of different nations. He °sly mid this to guard himself from mis oonceptiou in assenting to the general principle of the proposed resolution. There was also an exception to the rule in the case of colonies like the Cape and New Zealand, where native tribes were preva lent. He entirely agreed in the principle of that part ef the additios to the resolution moved by Mr. Baxter, which candeamed the tem of fortification in the colonies, which had hoes • but he preferred the amendment as it now stood ; and in ihat form he should accept it. He, however, urged that in many cases, if not in all, it was the dot of this coustry to defend its colonies. air J. ' , MUSSON, generally agreeing in the primly', ef the resolution, urged that its tendency was perhap to go too far especially when coupled with the smadmemt which had been moved by way of addition to the WOW notion. Mr. SALIM:TETON stated that whatever miggs6 be the abstract vale* of the resolution, tits peewee was the most inopportune moment for raisin the gessitoe, looking to recent events, which bad nearly tweeght us into a war which would have involved tbe safety of the North American colonies ; and when, "leder the circumstances, those colonies had shown so much spirit and vigour in preparing for their own de fence, in au imperial war.

The prisoners, Wolff Morteitt, Moguls ReicAbery, Aka- Adis Itorrenbrry, Abrahams JoeepAson, and Kauffmann Weber, were then placed at the bar, and they pleaded not guilty to the whole of the indictments, ten in number, that were erred against them. They also elected to be tried by a j ury composed entirely of Englishmen. Upon their being informed, through the medium of Dr. Rickert, the interpreter, that it was intended to postpone the trial to the nut MOOS, they all objected to this course being taken, and Romberg said that he had already been seven weeks in prison upon • charge of which he was inno- Dent, and he wanted to be tried at once. Baron Martin mid that if they insisted upon being tried at this 'melon they undoubtedly had tberight to do so. The trial could not, however, take place before the end of the week, and they would have an opportunity to confer with their solicitors upon the subject, and deciding what course they would take. NEW COURT. (Before the Recorder.) David George, 27, labourer, and George Ball, 19, shoe maker, were indicted for steaks 66 sovereigns, the monies of Janie' Brown. Mr. Metcalfe prosecuted k and Mr. Wilton and Mr. Lloyd defended Hall ; the prisoner George having pleaded guilt. The y jury returned a verdict of Guilty against both pri soners, and The Recorder sentenced them to be respectively impel speed, with hard labour, for twelve calendar months. Wood (not in the c alendar) pleaded guilty to steeling a Pod-office letter, and was mitered to three years penal servitude. William Derider, 57, dairyman, • respectably dressed man, was indicted for steeling a watch and two sad; value 101., the property of William Martin, from his person. Mr. Lloyd conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Metcalfe defended the primmer. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to eight months' imprisonment. Mors Beerier, 47, described is the calendar as being a drier, and Ratify Benjamin (who surrendered discharge of her bail), were formally arraigned for breaking in and entering the dwelliug-house of Marniaduke Matthew; and dealing therein one silver epergne and other articles of plate to the value of 3001., and in a second count the prisoners were charged with receiving the property specified knowing It to have been stolen. The male prisoner pleaded guilty to the count for know ingly receiving the stolen property ; but the female prisoner rid she was not guilty and knew nothing about it. The prisoners ware also arraigned for stealing • box con taining • quantity of books the property of Marrs. Brea dale, tradiog as carriers under the well.knowe firm of Pick ford and Co., and further for receiving the said property knowing it to have been stolen. To this indictment Moss Benjamin pleaded guilty to the charge of receiving, and the female prisoner repeated her plea of not guilty. There were several other similar indictments against the prisoners, who oo each repeated the same pleas. Mr. Metcelfe, who appeared on behalf of the prosecution said that though there were many other indictments againri the pruners, be did not think it necessary after the pleas which had been recorded to proceed with them. It ap peared, aa the court would see from the depositions, that the prisoner Moss had two houses, one of which contained propert , the nature and extent of which would be seen in the depositions. The female prisoner, though in charge of one of the hours, did Dot appear to know how the property it contained was acquired, and therefore es a ph i d her the prosecution would not be pressed. The female prisoner was then given in charge to the jury on the several indictments to which she had pleaded, and no evidence being offered against her she was acquitted and left the dock. The prisoner, on beicg called up for judgment, threw himself entirely upon the merciful consideration of them:aut. The Recorder, in passing sentence, said there could not he • doubt that the prisoner had for a long period of time carried on the business of • systematic receiver of stolen property, and was is truth a far more guilty person than the actual thief. The sentence of the court was that he be kept in penal servitude for the term of five years. The Recorder (addressing Mr. Metcalfe) said it was quite right that such a person as the prisoner should be brought to justice, and the efforts of the officer who had dose se much goad to the public by effecting that object ought sot to go unrequited. To Sergeant Robinson, for his err duct in the matter, the court awarded a sum of W.

The case commenced at 9 o'clock in the morning, and occupied the whole of the day, and was not brought to a termination before 7 o'clock in the evening. A great num• her of witnesses were examined, and several of them were subjected to a long cross-examination, but the facts them. selves lay in a very small compass. Mr. Serjeant Pigott and Mr. Sawyer conducted the case for the crown, and Mr. Staveley Hill and Mr. Harington for prisoner. On the night of the 19th of December last, two game. keepers of Lord Dillon's, named Stephen Moulder and Thomas Curtis, were watching a coppice known as Shears ooppioe, pet of Lord Dillon's estate at Ditehley.

Some of the shots also struck the other keeper, Curtis, but did not injure him. The man who fired the pa ran off immediately be bad done so, and Curtis, believing it to be Hall, called out, "Jack, Jack, I know thee." The man swung himself over a gate and got away. The other man who was in oompany with him was a labourer named John Turkey, who was captured by Curtis, after a scuffle, Tuokey calling out to his mate to come to his amistance. Turkey was taken into custody, when he gave tip a ramrod which Hall had dropped and he had picked up. It was Foveae in evidence that Hall and Turkey had been together on the 19th of December drinking at various public-houses, and about 11 o'clock at night went to the house of Joke Mayoock, brother-in.law to Hall, where the latter asked Maycock for his short gun which be bad to repair. The gun was fetched, arid loaded, and Hall and Turkey went away in the direction of Shear*. copse, where the unfortunate occurrence took plies. At a public-house where Hall, Turkey and others bad been drinking on the night of the murder, Hall used some angry language towards the keepers. and said he should not mind shooting a man. Certain footmarks were trued front the gate, where the man who fired the gun bad made his Nape, to the turnpike road, and these being compared with the boot* taken off Haft feet, corresponded most minutely. The jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder, but re commended the prowler to mercy on the ground that they believed his firing the gun was a momentary act, and that he only meant to disable the keeper but not to kill him. The Judge said he rite concurred in the verdict, and could not see how the jury could safely have come to any other conclusion.

The yarn market has been very quiet, with little business doing for any market. Prices remain very firm, and some kinds of yarns made out of American cation are rather dearer than before. In reference to a subject which has been noticed several times in our recent reports, Messrs. Du Fay and Co., in their review of the market issued this month, observe that " the use of karat and other Prat Indian cotton is becoming moregenerel, and the objection formerly entertained about Junta is wearing off. Spinners who have exclusively need it latterly find an advantage in stead of a disadvantage in doing so, nor do the continental buyers of yarns, particularly of water twist, object to it under present circumstances." The tone of the cloth trade has been very fiat today. The discouraging acccounta from India bad a serious effect upon business in Manchester, and caused buyers for that quarter to withdraw altogether from the piece-goods market. An impression that the settlement of American affairs has been brought into nearer view is also affecting the trade generally, and there seems to be no inquiry for fabrics of any descriptions. In order to effect ales, considerably lower prices would have to be taken than manu facturers have been holding for during the last two or three weeks ; but there is no disposition to make the requisite abatement, unless here and there in some case of exceptional weakness. As a general rule, pro. damn continue very firm in their quotations. During the peat month, the prices of yarns and cloth have been slowly advancing. The rise has been from lid. to 3d. pee pace for 7-8 printers; shout lid for madepollams ; ld. to 94. for 9-8 printers •; lid to 3d. for 9-8 shirting, ; a full lii, for Mb. to 71b. abtings ; and 3cl. for 81b. to 91b makes. In some eases, ladle jaccoueta are lid. dearer ; and T cloths from lid. to 3d. dearer, but there is much irregn. larity in the prices asked for similar kinds. Loogcloths sad domestics, have hardened, though thereata are not quotably higher. The returned Capt. Pala of the state of employment in Manchester, made up to this morning, show that 14,495 persons are on short time, and 6,977 are *trolly out of employ, against 26,306 in full employment. This is a rather unfavourable return as compared with last week, but the change is alight, the numbers then on short time being 14,572, and out of work, 6,857. In the district around Manchester we bear of but little change. OOTTON.—Lmwoot, MARCH 4.—The burliness today is extremely limited, without change in prices.

The week's import is 3,943 bales. _ _ WOOLLEN.—Lams, MARCH 4.—The market taday was again of a quiet character ; few goods changed hands in either hall. The expectation that was entertained that the firmness of the London wool sales would tend to im. prove things in this district has not as yet been realised.
