MONEY MAItlf5T. Tertr44DATZ 9 len to. The quotations of the French funds having come about 2 per tent. lower this morning. Consols opened a lit.le below the closing prix es if yesterday. The first price. were 911 to 1, and the transactions nut being on a large scale, that price was hardly main tained during the early time of business. A ru mour was then eirentated that the Russian troops bad been beaten by the Hungarian, which added to the general complexity of continental polities caused mewls to fall to 901 at which prioe they eland. The Three per Cents. Reduced were done at 891 and 891; and the New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. were last done at 901. Bask Stock was done at 195 and 1931. Leer An nuities at 8 9-16 end 8 5-16. Exchequer Bills at 445. to 47e., and the advertised bills at 43e. to 46r. India Bonds were done at 68 e. and 71r. prem., perm. India Stock there were no transactions. In the foreign market the opening prices were acutely different from those of yesterday ; but daring the day the gloom in the English funds extended to this class of enmities. The deprissioa was most apparent in Rowan stock, which was very fist, and was pentad as low as 100 to 2 without actual Wei- Dees. Mexican stock likewise went back about 1 per cent. The official lists afford the fu lowing report of the actual besieges done: Brazilian Bonds at 78; Data New Scrp at 6 prem.; Equador Bonds at 31; Grenada at 16 ;1 Mexican at 301, 3 0 1, 301, and 30) with morns; and from 281 to 27/ ex coupons; Portuguese Con vetted at 27; Spanish Five per Cents., Active, at 16) sad 16 ; Ihissives at 31; the Three per Cunt& at 32. and 321. The Dutch Two - and a - Half p er Cents. at' 481; and the Four-per-Cent. Certificates at 75, and 741. From China thiliccounts of the Market are gene sally satisiketory, though some interrnri in to baseness had been experienced at Canton regarding the gen tian of foreigners residing within the city. The Ceylon *deices state that the weather had been favourable for the coffee es'ates. The shipments to date were large, but the crop wan not expected to exceed that of last year. Freights were V. for coffee and oil, and Si. for cinnamon. Exchanges 2 to S prem., bank rates. The commeecial &deka received boa Havana to the 26th ult. contain the following informatics re garding the exports of sugar from that port, and the date of the market fur freights and • :changes. From the date of the previous advice. the sugar market had not been very active ; the letters of 24th March from Europa had tended rather to reduce the high pretimoions of holders, bat the conviction that the 'app.@ of the year will be en nisch below the average, prevented any material fall in prices. Mid dling to good whites were quotedual to 295. to 31s. 54. per cwt.; yellows, choice eq and superior, 20s. 9t. to 23e. 2d. per cwt.; Macomber, 17s. 3d. to 19s. 7d. per cwt.: all free on boird.

BANKRUPTCY CONSOLIDATION BILL. On the motion of Lewd BROUGHAM, this bill peseta through committee pro forma, end .as ordered to be re committed on Monday ee'noiht. His lordship said the delay would not prevent the bi ll passing this session. THE REPORTERS' GALLERY. Lord BEAUMONT laid on the table a report of the Cam mimes on the accommodation of the house, and stated that the committee recommended that a temporary gallery be ereved during the Whi.rua recess, the elect of which could be tried for the remainder of the session. They thought it better to adopt this course before the erection of any permanent works. They also recommended that a por tion of the bass at the foot of the throne be raised. THB WHITSUN RECHSS. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said it was his intention to have proposed the shortest adjournment which had been usual for Whitsuntide, namely, from Friday to the Thurs day following; bat after the report which their lordships had just heard, and knowing the importance which their lordship attached to any practical improvements, and having understood from Mr. Barry that if the house ad journed for a few days longer he would be enabled to make such an experiment as would enable their lordship to judge how far the improvements suggested would be found useful and practical, he should, en the adjournment of the house to-morrow (this day), move that the house do adjourn to the following Monday se•nnight. - - - CANADA. Lord WHARNCLIFFB said that, as in the despate,- which had been had on the table from the Governer-General of Canada, he had promised to send by the next mail a des patch explaining the reason, which bad induced him to give his consent to the Indemnity Bill, and as another mail had since arrived, he wished to ask the noble earl the Secretary for the Colonies whether he had received such statement, and if so, whether be would be able to lay it on the table to-morrow (this day), so that it might be printed during the recess. Earl GREY said be had, received the promised despatch, and he certainly proposed to lay it at an early period before be both houses of parliament, but it would not in his power to do So tc-morrow, as it could not be laid on the table without some further information accompanying it. If he found that he could possibly produce it to-morrow, be should be glad to do so. Lord BROUGHAM said that he had a notice on the paper on this subject for to morrow (this day), but upon re consideration, deeply as he felt the importance, that no unnecessary delay should take plate in bringing the subject before the house, yet in tha present State of excitement which prevailed in the co'ony, and the termination of which he tad no official knowledge of, although he hoped that it bad terminated—u under these circumstances, objections might be taken to a debate on the subject, in the course of wh•ch opinions might be expressed which would be likely to be misconstrued, he should postpone his motion till that day fortnight, when the terms of his motion would be, " to submit to their lordships the subject of the late events in Canada, and of the bill passed by the Canadian Assembly, and as sented to by the Governor-General, but not yet assented to by her Majesty." He hoped nu advantage would be taken of the delay. NAVIGATION BILL. The house having resolved itself into a committee on this bill, Lord BEAUMONT in the chair, The Earl of BLLENBOROUGH rose to move that the act should not come into operation until the let of January, 1851, instead of the let of January, 1850, as proposed by the bill. This amendment was ancillary, not hostile, to the act. It was assumed that the competition under the act would lead to a reduction of freights. It was stated by the shipowners that some foreigners, especially Americans, used machinery in working their ships which had not been introduced into our ships; that they consequently employed a less number of seamen ; and therefore they could afford to carry a: lower freights. The British shipowners must reduce the number of seamen on board their ships, by onc. fifth, or 47,100 men, before they would be in a similar position ; and if that were to be done, In seven months—the time limited by the act — if 47,100 seamen belonging to our mercantile marine, were thrown so suddenly mit of employment, the Clint quinces might be serious, moreover, a large proportion of our ship ping would not return to this country before the let ne• Ja nuary,lBso; nearly the whole of the shipping engaged in the Indian trade would be in this position. He united, as en act of justice and policy, therefore, that the house would grant en extension of the time at which the act was to come into operation for twelve months. . _ Earl GREY hoped their loedships would not accede to the aendmeat. Ia the coarse a*, F 441211,414 debates on this subject, be bad not heard a more powerful speech in favour of the biU. He believed the mercantile marine of this country was, w the noble earl had said, in a very bad state ,• that there were a great many ships badly commanded ; and that this arena from a want of competition. (Hear, bear.) He also thought that the freights of British ships might be reduced very greatly, and the noble earl seemed to thick that twelve months would be enough to enable the British shipowner to do se. If the both Mated by the noble earl were correct, they sitheded the best evidence in favour of this bill. He did not, hewer, think the delay, was necessary. British ships now esenimeted with wens snit many foreign ships. It was a mew of great regret to him that this measure bed net prises& last year for the benefit of the navigation of the St. 1,41M110 11 this season—but to throw away another year, dur ing which the whole trade of the St. ',sweeties was to be ppled and injured, would be very impolitic. (Hear, hear.) With reference to the importance of the act coming into operation during the session of parliament, be need hardly say that, under ordinary circumstances, the Ist of January would be very near the meeting of parliament. (Hear, treat.) Lord WHAENCLIFFE thought it was most desirable that the chase contemplated by the bill shoold be made without any Wag delay, and he thoraces could not support the amendment. He considered, however, that it wadi be desirable that the act should come into operation during the mining of perikment. D the period at which the act cam into operation was flied for Jane, 1850, it would be da• sirable. Berl GRANVILLE said there was no greater probability of parliament meeting earlier in 1851 than in 1850, and the aoBle earl did not propose to estend the time at which the set should come into operation beyond the let of January, 1851. As to the proposition of the noble lord who had last i addressed the house—namely, that tba bill should come into operation in June, 1850, he would merely observe that that would be two months after the openiae of the St. Lawrence. The committee then divided, when the numbers were 44 Non-eonteats Mefority against the amendment. Earl WALDEGNAVE (whose observations were totally inaudible in the gallery) moved as an amendment, "Clause 1. To omit from the words ' and so much of a ',Main act,' page 1, line 12, down to the end of the words property of British subjects,' at the end of line 3, page 2. To omit from the words' and so much,' page 2, line 27, down to the end of the words' wasting or d. flcient,' in the 43rd line of the sense page. Clause 18, page 8 To omit the whole of the 18th 'Wale. Claws 19, page 9. Ts omit in the form of declare. ties from the words or, if the vessel be,' in Hue 29, to the weed' building,' in the 32nd line. Pegs 10. Te omit from the word ' or,' in line 28, to the words 'of the building,' in lbw 31." Lord ORANVILLE opposed the amendments. The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND said that be bed presented petitions from Tyne, Newcastle, and ether places, impressing the slams of the ship owners, and all claws connected with shipping, at this measure. He was informed by thew parties that gib t:Theln ir j ury ent.rtsi im pen n" di ' , n th :Ter Ih e em hel w in g l ich s °Sebes; arm senteaar tasod w h en tb i ni i iened the petition. He entirely agreed with the amendment of the noble and reliant lord. The real evil was the admission of foreign ship. to the advan tages of English registration. He supper 8d this amendment from naval prejudices, because he believed the power et Eng- land depended on the supremacy of the sea. (llen, bear.) Our navy was the only security for oar colonial poesessions. The Earl of CADOGAN said that he had waited until this specific &muse had been brought before the house. The Earl of MINTO supported the measure, but his lordshi,a's remarks (occupying nearly a quarter of an hour) were wholly inaudible in tho gallery. The Earl of ELLESMERE, who spoke with his beck to the gallery, and was nearly inaudible, was understood to support the bill as brought in by the government. The Earl of HARROWBY made some observatioas, which were inaudible in the gallery. Earl GRANVILLE read some extracts from evi dence given by various psalms for the purpose of comparing the cost of ship building in America and in England, from which it appeared that wood excepted the price of all the materials used in ships was lower in England than in America. Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that in the years 1846, 1848, and 1847, England had maintained a successful compe tition with ships in the Baltic, tad that no fear whatever was to be entertainet on that score. Earl GREY said that the reason why British shipping had not increased in the Baltic during recent years in proportion to the 'swat increase of the commercial marine of the sea- pire, was that British ships were too good to be employed in the timber trade, which was the principal carrying trade el the Baltic. Lord STANLEY said that the result of the present bill I upon the China trade would be to throw the carriage of the lea annum d in England into the bands of the Americans,l who would be enabled to take out general 'argon of their own manufactures and exchange them against tea, which by the alteration in the navigation laws, they would be as likely to import into England. After a few words from the Earl of WALDIORATZ, the committee divided. For the Amendment 37 Against it 49-12 Lard STANLEY eontmeueed by referring to the sub ject of Canada with respect to the differential duties imposed upon foreign corn coming from foreign ports. The Canadians laboured under disadvantages, and they ought to be protected I at all evens they should be placed on an equality , Inchon* other colonies. To do lea would be an injustice to Canada, but to do more would be giving advantages which there was no right or in tention to claim. Demerara told them she did not want a re. peal of the navigation laws. Jamaica did not want such a I measure. All Jamaica asked for was the liberty to import by newton ships forefront duty. Trinidad did not complain of the existing navigation laws. Where then were the colones whom erahns were to be met ? After briefly referring to the reatrietions and penalties provided ter by use Possession AM, the noble lord said that the colonies had advanced no objections against the navigation laws as they stand. But, by their repeal, the trade of the whole colonies—not only between them and other countries, but between them and Great Britain—would be subjected to all sorts of restyle tins, rivalry, and competition with every foreiga country in the world. Tao noble lord, observ.ng that it was quite den her Majesty's government had it in their power effectively to carry into operation a 3 they intended in this bill, and that they were determined to insist all modifications that might be sugtested, would not waste their lordships' time or Lis own by going into further discussion, leaving to the combined force of government and their allies the joint responsibility of the consequences that must result from the adoption of this measure. The noble lord took that oppor tunity of explaining the proposal he made with regard to Canada, to show that it was not bah!' to the objeeti ms which had been urged against it by Lords Grey and Granville on • former evening. Earl GREY said as the noble lord had expressed his inten tion not to oppose the bill further in committee, he thought it son ssary to say that her Majesty's government were prepared to take the responsibility upon themselves and pro teed with the measure. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH gave notice on behalf of his right rev. friend, the Bishop of Oxford, whose inten tion it was to propose certain amendments upon the third reading of tke bill. The several clauses front one to eight were then agreed to. —Clause nine enacted that if her Majesty at any time, by her royal proclamation, declare that the proportion of British seamen necessary to the due navigation of British ships shall be less than the proportion required by this act, every British strip navigated with the proportion of British mama required by such proclamation, shall be deemed to be duly navigated so long es such proclamation shall remain in force.—On this clause being proposed. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH objected to giving the crown a power to overrule a grave decision of parliament '" at any time." It should only be given in time of war, or in apprehension of war. 1 / 4 therefore moved the emission of the Innis " at any time." Earl GREY said the object was precisely as the noble earl opposite bad stated. However, it was impossible in an act of parliament to Mae all the circumstances which might* render the exercise of such a power neeessery. The clause was altogether intended to meet a case of emergency or a difficulty suddenly arising. Therefore, if the clause was to smod at all, it was necessary that the exercise of the power by her Majesty should not be confined to a state of war. I The prevision was contained in the present act of parliament. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH had no objection to the clause as it was understood the power should never be exer cised except in cans of emergency or apprehended war. Earl GREY—Oh, clearly. Atter a few words from the Earl of MINTO, Lord WHARNCLIFFE said that as he felt that there was no possibility of hi. succeeding in carrying the amendment which he had placed upon their lordships' paper, he woult not press it to a division. Having stated his reasons for moving the amendment, the noble lord said he should not detain their lordships any farther than by stating that the amendment, which he declined to press to a division, contained provisions which would very much im prove the bill brought in by her Majesty's government if it were adopted . Earl GREY said tint though be wished to do every justice to the motives which induced the noble lord to Krieg his amendment before them, he did not agree with him in thinking that it would be any improvemeut to the bill The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH said that he was of opinion that the proposition of his noble friend (Lord Stanley), who had just left the house, was preferable to that contained in the bill of her Majesty's government, but he considered the clauses in the bill as it now stood were match better than those which the noble lord (Wharucliffe) wished to propose. The noble lord wished that there should be a previous negotiation with foreign countries before the provisions of the bill should be tarried out ; but that did not refute the clauses which they found in the bill. The Earl of HARROW BY wished to express his convic tion that it was the duty of their lordships to leave nothing to be gained by Canada by annexation to the United States . It would be no benefit to our American possessions to remove the restrictions that existed with regard to the United States, unfree New Emceeing and Nova Scotia were included in such • meaaure. The bill now before their lordship, vested an extensive power in parliament, which ought to be exer cised with discretion. Earl GREY said that her Majesty's government were fully aware of the importance of the restriction which fettered the trade carried en between our American colonies and the United States being removed. He believed that those restrictions tended as much to injure the Americans themselves as it did our colonies, and they were beginning to discover it. A bill, which had for its object the removal of those restrictions had been introduced into the American Congress during the pre sent year, and would have pun d had it not been that it was not brought forward until nearly the close of the session, and it was not the custom in the Mittel States to pan any im portant measure immediately before the Congress adjourned. Clause 10 was thee withdrawn. The remaining clauses were then agreed to. Their lordships then resumed, and the bill was ordered to be reported to-morrow. LANDED PROPERTY (IRELAND). The Eul of GLENOALL gave notice of his intention of submitting a motion after the recess having reference to the existing laws relative to landed property in Ireland. Their lordships adjourned at eleven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS—THUR.qatT, MAT 24. The SPEAII.III teak the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. - - REPORTS CONSIDERED.

ROYAL ASSENT. The Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod (Sir A. Mind) summoned the house to the House of Peers, to wham ty royal assent given by commission to several bills ; for width see Lards' report. RETURN OF MR. T. DUNCOMBE TO HIS PAL LIAMENTARY DUTIES. This hon. member took his seat this evening for the bog time since his long end severe illness. The hon. gmtlswan still appears exceedingly unwell, awl is evidently laboarki under the effects of some disease of the chest. THE SPANISH TARIFF. Mr. BANKES begged to renew the quo otiose be had peg on a former evening—whether the Board of Trade lewd prepare and lay en the table the new Spanish tariff in the same shape as the tariff was prepared last vela ; and abb. they articles which were prohibited under the present tut were also prohibited under the former one. • Mr. LABOUCHERE said that the hon. gentleman.% probably aware that the papers in question were in the de. panainst, not of the Beard of Trade, but of the Torso., office. They were copies of the Spanish tariff transmitted by the British consul at Madrid to the Secretary for For*. Affairs. Ile was anxious that the papers should be too.• dated in the shape in which the hot. gentleman dentate' see them; but it must be remembered that this tariff Si. eluded 285 articles, some cf them of a very minute sal unimportant character. It the hon. gentleman wruld he content with the principal of them, the tariff should be pre pared in the form desired by the hon. gentleman, and. lay on the table very shortly. (Hear, hear.) With regard% the prohibited articles, in tt e new tariff many prohibitive' that existed in the former one had been taken off, and sea new ones, as far as be knew of, had been put on. (Hear.) INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION. Mr. COBDEN postponed his motion for establisbing • system of international arbitration as a substitute for war ull Tuesday the 12th June. DUTY ON ADVERTISEMENTS. Mr. EWART fixed his modal for the repeal of this slaty fle, the same day. NEW PARLIAMENTARY BOROUGH. Mr. M'OREOOR fixed his motion for constituting the parishes of Kensington, Chelsea, &c. a parliamentary W. resegh for Thursday , the 14th of June. VOTE BY BALLOT. Mr. H. BERKELEY rose to propose his motion. H a said that in consequence of the resolution passed by the house lost year, he had now the honour of presenting him. self to ark leave to bring in • bill to give to the electors ot England and Ireland the protection of the ballot in tiled. • charge of their solemn and bounden duty to return fit n 4 proper persons to represent them in parliament. His no* of motion of last year came on on the Bth of August, kg much fuller house than was usual at that late period of eke • union. There were present at that discussion, and at (km division, 171 members besides the Speaker—(lear, hese)—. and by a majority of that number the principle which had been so long advocated by Mr. Or ate and others was at length affirmed. (Hear) He would wil'inely save the time of the house, and, resting his case on the debate Mint session, bring in his bill, leaving the discussion for the moat reading. But he understood thin was not to be permitted, and that he was to be met with opp mition in lien inr by that who were the opponents of every great question of Wm., and who, he supposed, on this occasion would raise up the sp ctres of those arguments which wi re destroyed last year and parade them before the house as substantial and tido* • reasons for refusing to carry out the resolution of the hams. One argument on which the oppor.ents of this measure had always founded their case—and it was an argument which had been used b the right hon baronet the member be Tamworth (Sir It. Peel), •he right hon. baronet the mead:. for Ripon (Sir J. Graham), and wail sat year reeled uponby he noble lord (Lord J. Russell)—was, that secret voting,. hostile to the spirit sal the institutions and the constitution d this country. This was a position he could not concede, eta less those who advanced it conceded to him that in t imi d at io n I was by the constitution a recognised principle in our electoral • system. (Hear, hear.) Intimidation in this country, he was sorry to say, was inseparable from open voting—and ff open voting was • glorious Institution, then intimidation must 'he viewed as a valuable privilege. The elitism, of 1842 had shown what was the use of what the electioneer. • leg agents called " the screw." It was then s‘o an that at the previeus general election the business of the - e agents was to irepire into the private affairs of the electors—how far they were involved and the extent of their liabilitiesends the view of turning their misfortunes into the meal- s of cam polling them to give dishonest votes. Thus he showed that at every general election tens of thousands of electors in this country were driven to the poll by the application of the screw of the banker, the creditor, the landlord and the ea, tomer, and that likewise tens of thousands steered • median course by either refusing to vote or by previously refusing te register. (Hear, hear ) When the electors were not free 'gents, what became of the theory of freedom of discussion in consulting the opinions of public voters? To gin the elector fair play under our present system, end to secure that high privilege which was now little better than a mock- I my, the house must place him beyond the power of intiraida. Soo, for then, and then only, could free discussion awl*. opinions of his fellow men have weight with the voter sad govern his vote. (Hear, heor.) It was pretended that if you gave the electors power to conceal their vote, they would be unable to keep their own counsel ; but this seemed to him to be preposterous, and contrarry le common Knee. It was raid that the British ekeen must talk, that it was not in his nature to keep a secret, that the secret would be forthcoming, that the British lion .at roar, although in ro roaring he might betray himself an am (Loud laughter.) But, in attributing this excessive loqua city to the electors of this country, they seemed to fc that there were hundreds of thousands of odd fellows, fo resters, and masons in England who could, and did, keep the secrets of their charitable orders inviolate; and he be liever that hon. members, who were members at dabs, were in the habit of keeping their recrete, The fen observations he had now the honour to address to the home had so far been particularly addressed to those hon. mem.m who refused to concede this measure of reform in any chaps whatever. He now prayed permission to address one weed I to those hoe. members who feared the ballot would be im lefficacious without the extension of the suffrage. Now, them was no hon. member of that house more willirg toexteedllte suffrage than he war; but he was not prepared le contend that, without the extension of the siadi frage, the ballot would be utterly inefficacious. He believed that any change of our electoral system must be for the better, and that no prof could be given him of *. 'failure of the ballot in any country where the ballot had been tried He could furnish the most striking instances of in most triumphant success. (Hear.) It had been said that the ballot was a failure in America. He utterly and mot pointedly denied the fact. Nay, more, he asserted that it had worked so gloriously in that country for the protection of the dearest rights of mankind, that the eltive.holdise states at this moment were seeking to abolish the ballot, because they feared that under its benign inflame the abolition of slavery would be effected. (Cheers.) A paragraph to this effect was set forth in the petition he had that evening presented from 7,000 inhabitants of the city of Bristol ; and certainly a higher eulegium upon the 85k lot coal 1 not by possibility be pronounced, for in Ateeriel it acted as a secret shield against endless intimidation and for the protection of those who sought to carry out the best die• tates of humanity, the most glorious attributes of Christie. nity. (Cheers.) The hones would remember that ie the year 1830, under the influence of the Free. Revolution, the Belgian constitution was fr med. The qualification of voters then ranged differently in diffeesst places. In 1848 the Belgians improved their elettond system, and one universal qualification was subiritand for the different qualifications which existed before. That qualification amounted generally to 20 florin paid in direct taxation, about U. 15'. 2d. in Englirk currency. This raised the electoral body in Belgium frog 40.000 to 80,000 electors; sad such was the electoral sums which was new acting admirably in that country. The force of the argument of those who prognosticated that there would be too much of a democratic principle infused, if the qualification were lowered, had been fekified, foe talent and respectability had been elected under the Bel• elan system. Now, what did he deduce from this? He deduced an argument to show that in one country under the present electoral system vote by ballot was perfectly applicable, because, be it observed, the number of the popu lation in proportion to the electoral body was much larger in Belgium than in England. He humbly submitted this a s a practical illustration that the working of the ballot in Eng land might rival the working of the ballot in Belgium. (Hear.) He had been much struck the other day with the speech d livered by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, in Lincolnshire, whereto he gave infialte praise to the re. lationship existing between landlord and tenant in that part • f the country which he visited, and which he sail did not depend upon • mere written 118teo• meet but upon mutual confi lance between the parties. He (Mr. Berkeley) believed that the measure be now proposed would tend to cement that good understand ing whisk ought to prevail between landlord and tensa fj and that it would improve the relationship between 51 1 Masses of twisty. Put your trust in the people and will confide in you. (Loud cheers.) He believed thati It would cause the rich to be more careful of the interests of the poor; that it would have a tendene to prevent absenteeism; that it would extend the I nee of the suffrage, now most unco-stitutionalle curtailed by the fear of giving a co: scientious vote, end that it would cause the privileged orders of society to 56 " clamour to gain by merit that which they were now content to win by gold, cr to constrain by force—political distinction. Lastly, he believed it would have a strong tendency to sp riot that system of terrorism which was a foul blot on the otherwise fair escutcheon of this great and free country. (Loud cheese.) Mr. J. WILLIAMS seconded the tsetse. He could assure the house that the trading classes were suffering per secution under the existing electoral system. and that they were compelled very often either to violate site it consciences or to incur serious loss. He knew from ol). nation and expo rlenos of what these classes had to endure in the city of Wesemineter and in Marylebnne, and in the whole of the tropolitan borough*.
