It would be utterly impossible te ' 1 tuaiatain those military and i aval armaments which were 1 1 essintial to our existence as an independent people, or to pay the interest of the natimal debt; and if we attempted 1 to do ate or the other, we should be driven to inctmeesd taxation, and that, with the mermen' and unequal Weems of poor rates, would entirely prevent the cultivation of the ' land. If they wished to know what w the situation of •i country in which no rents were paid, he as would read them WI extinct from a letter which he received a few days ago from Ireland, and which was written by d a ted of business, and of an excellent judgment It was October 1, and it related more partisularly to the county Galway, though there weft many other &Arias of Irvland in the same situation. It was as follows: " I have said at the commencement of this letter that I have been through some part of the west of 'Maid, and I it eve Wor m sy that no pasi description I could bly give could convey to your ship even an idea of the state of wretchedness sad de.titution to which that Fart tithe country Is reduced; there are thousands on thous nds of acres lying utterly waste, and have been so for the past three yearik, pumas ains of what there were populous mime's, and now nst a being to be sees In them; in fast, even when twin on high Lod, mimes my eye amid reach, I could see nothing but cottage* and whole villages in ruins, and waste Mod; not an animal of any kind to be seen ; and Iran the height to which the studs and Mete gnus had grows, the land must naturally be far from bad. I was told that such in the former inhabitants as had not either died or emi grated were in the poor-houses. It was really one of the mos wish t melancholy sights I bare witnessed for a long time. I only Lord Mau Russell had been with me, m I think it would have done more te open his eyes to the real state to whites his legisLitme has ledssedthis country than all that could be said or written on the subject. But he had understated his argument by noticing the con dition°, a country in which no rents could be paid. There were at present, even in the county of Kiddknee a. well as elsewhere, instances in which the lend could not be pre&t. ably cultivated, though it were actually rent free. And would not that of itself be considered by any rational man sea sufficient reason against the adoption ot • system which necessarily led to results so injurious to every class cf the community ? (Cheers.) lie would not waste tneir time upon the senseless advice which had been given by Lord Kinniurd —that mats ought to be increased, in order to stimulate the farmers to greater exertion. Another piece of advice, given by that enliehtened nobleman Lord Yintiaird, respected what he celled high farming, end he told them that large sums of money should be expended in the purchase of artifidal manures and the drainage of Linda. But what inducement could any farmer possibly have to increase cultivation, when he knew be could not sell his produce at • remunerative price ? (Cheers) He would suppose they had nothing to pay for manures or drainiag, or that the government furnished the firers with guano gratuiteusly to any amount, and that as crops were enormously in creased in consequence. Suppose that br this means t produce were increased sixfold, and instead of selling a quartern loaf for sixpence, the produce were reduced to &penny, what then would h peen ? Take the case of a labourer whose family required six loaves • week, but who was unfortu nately able to buy but five. If the price were reduced from siapence to gee penny the loaf, of course he would provide Idgemelf with six loaves ; but would he purchase six times sin, er 36 loaves ? Why his family could not eat it if they had ISseed the labourer would purchase other articles of provi des model OT necessary to him. Thus consumption wou duet be isigamaasurete with production. The grower would of necessity be • loser—and the ally result of high farming would he to make prices still lower than they CM at pre sent. Then came the propositioa concerning taxation which bed been put forth by Mr Disraeli, to whom he would et all *vests accord the merit of originality. He did not believe that any men had ever before thought of such a proposal as that of relieving the landed Mutest by increasing their taxa, aid relieving the country at large by imposing new taxes to the amount of 5,000,0001. annuall y . (" Hear ,' and laughter.) He kisew it had been said by the hon. gentle. maa's friends that his first speech apes this subject was mis. represented in the newspapers; bat they all knew the fidelity and accuracy with which the gentlemen of the London press discharged their very laborieue duties. As in other cases there would be an occasional error—there might some times, and necessarily, be omissions; but did any body ever hear of a reporter for • newspaper inventing a whole speech with • great array of figures ? (Hear, hear.) That excuse, therefor*, would not avail him; and he (Earl St.nleope) pinned him down to the first speech. Then, again, they heard persona calling out lonly that all their distress came from heavy taxation, and that therefore taxation should be reduced. But how did it hap pen that in 1818, which was • year not of factitious prices I caused by an enormous war consumption, there were 11114 9,000,0001. of taxes more than at present, with little diffi culty, and with as little objection as had ever beta urged against taxation? Let them sot, then,delude themselves by I ', the nodes that any paltry remission of taxes, sulk es the , abolition of the malt end hop duties, would give them effectual or subetantial relief. In the first place, it would [ only be a partial relief applying to those comparatively few esseties in which hope mid barley were grown `an d , as to enabling them to aosert• with the foreign pronere, such a project was altogether fallacious and absurd. If parliament i were determined to force the productive classes into unequal competition with foreign nations, they, must redact all taxes end all public and private payments in exact proportion to the diff,rence in the prices of produce—(eheen), and that was not less than 30 per sent. Yak the consequences ! Undoubtedly under these circumstances it would be both just and accessary that the interest en the national debt and the intend on morterages should be reduced in that prcpor tics, but let aie man delude himself with tie notion tha rib ;t such a wafture could be adopted without imminent pe nay, without destruction to the aides. The national debt amounted in round numbers to 800,000.0001 , and whatever might be the supposed sorority of that investment, it was clear from er , nen' experience that in investing their money people were mach more apt to regard the amount of Wisest they should receive than the nature of the vanity Peat The natural result would he, therefore, that every landholder would say, ~ You. eme you well diminish my income by one-third, sad under present circumstancee it may be just and reasonable to do so ; but I am determined to preserve the same income, ani I shall withdraw my capital bon the funds." What then would happen ? The ten 4. too, would fail 30 per cent. An commons loss of sonal wend be sustained, end innumerable bankruptcies Judd senses. Then, again, look at the case of the mort- MN& It was supposed that the private o bli g ations of the 101111027 amounted to not less than 2,000,000,000 e. The mort. MeAllea, would say, " I advanced my mo ne y to you at 4 per cent., and expoet or desire lobate the same interest eigiethead if you are TM able to pay me that, then repay me lbegapital." What would follow ? Why, there would be no mans of raising the money to discharge the amount borrowed 11.1111 the mortgage, and the pressure would he felt to be so lamisiable se to erasion of itself • most tremendous con veddenis the country. Besides this, its ust be considered Nut OM mortgagees might in many es foteedwee. lie knew dim moment was of so avail with some persons ; and a undwe eflis Howls of Lords once said to him, in reply to his tpredon, " How did you find the state of Inland 1" "Why, theta will be a great change of the properties ; b ut that dam not matter." What! were they to call contims , don a mere treader of property? Was that tic mild and gentle same by which they were to designate • system ot libelee& iellbery ?

Mr. THOMAS SMITH then rose and moved the first re solution : ' That all thou who are engaged in any branch of British industry have an undoubted right to demand that it shall he fitly and effectually protected against foreign comps tition in the markets of this country, and that if this pima lion be not rerored, it is indispensably requisite to Mina public and private payments in proportion to the foil at prices." Mr. PAUL FOSKET I seconded the resolution. Mt. G.T. YOUNG was then isvroducad to the assail( by the noble earl in the chair. He said it had been imagined that the shipowners of the creamy had either stood aloof from giving their support to aitricul•mil protection whilst elamourine for protection to themselves, or stimulated the cry foe the iemoval of protection from agriculture. But he was happy to be able to assure them that such en impression was wholly without foundation. Toe shipping interest had maintained that it would be a shame and dicgnsce to them if, whilst advocating protection for maritime commerce, they were nut ready to *driest' the extension of the some principle to the great sericultural body of the country. (Cneers.) It had been stated publ that the propositions put forward by Mr. Disraeli were hacked end soictioned by the authority of the great leaders of that party with wnich he was supposed to be more immediately connected, and at a recent meeting at Colchester, Sir Joka Tyrell, a warm, an undoubted, and a notions friend of agri culture, was represented to have said that he could say without hesitation that the propositions of Mr. Dimali hail the sonetion of Lord Stanley. the Marquis of Granby, and Mr. limits. Now he (Mr. Young) had had no opportuaity of consulting or communicating with Lord Stanley or the Marquis of Granby, but he had with Mr. H • , end be held in his hand a letter which he had received from that right hon. gentleman that morning, but to which he did set consider himself justified in giving publicity. On his own part, however, he ail not hesitate to say that Mr. Kinks had had no communication wli from Mr. Disraeli upon the "object, nor had Mr. Harries expressed say opinion whatever upon it. But Mr. Husks had Riven to him (Mr. Young) an opinion which wHi perfectly in accordance with his own—that whilst the project of a sinking ford raised upon import duties, viewed by itself, was one that he should bat v.ry pled to see the I. gislature adopt, yet that it was °lie which soul I afford no relief to the suffering farmers enter the pressing exigency in w: ich they were now place''. (Cheers.) Mr. WILKINSON, the treasurer of the Parliamentary and Financial Reform Association, then addressed the nieettep in support of the views 01 that 0 sky, and, shbou eh they were quite opposed to those of the promoters of the meeting, the speaker was listened to respectfully and with attention.

It appeared that Mrs. Kay, accompanied by her daughter, went to chaprl on Thursday evening, there being a special service, on amount of that day twins fixed as or.e of general humiliation. The house was left untenanted during the time of their absence, and was tittered by some vagabond or vagabonds, and tho roughly p.undeeed of everything of value. Mrs. Kay is a widow, having only lost her husband a few weeks ago, and the heartless villains who robbed her house have deprived herself, her daughter, and ton of nearly all their clothing worth from 141. to 161.

IRISH COLONISATION AT BRECON.—A great num ber of Irisit vagrants have, for several mouths past, located I themselves in this neighbourhood and taken up their abode la bans, sheds, and !mot...spied buildings adjoining the IMusiaA. The waste's, with their fruitful progeny, go stoat begging, while ths lazy hulks o f men remain behind so guard the " privates." They have been repeatedly ordered by the autholities to quit the neighbourhood, and give some other locality the benefit of their presence, bat to no purpose. The magistrates have, at Ise^ ditermiaed to lathe an example of some of them, sad aim abipsysor to effect their removal. Is the course of the last fmnaight limn a dozen of them were apprehended by the borough pa under the direction of Superintendent Stephen., and isommitted to the House of Correction as nines and regaboods.—Afeee oath Beacon. FACTORY Fran AT BURNLET.—At a quarter past 12 ea Friday mornteg, Mr. Henry Toenail's mill was dis favored to be on tire, when the fin-bells were immediately nag, and soon after all the engines of the town were on the spot. Some delay was caused beton they were got into play on the burning mum; however, when they did get into active operation, they continued so till the fire was got under, which was not till near four o'clock, and not until great damage was dope to that part of the mill in which the fire originated, namely, the rooms situated above the boiler, in which were throttle*, roving frames, a cistern of oil , and other things, all of whieh became a corallete wreck; and were it not for the strong party wall which separated this (the old portion of the building) from the newer part, it is highly probable the whole mill would have been boned down ; as i• is, some say the damage cannot be repaired st less than 1,0001. A company of 62nd regiment, with their Zn i e, was present, and rendered effective service ; the were also on the epor, while the lookers-on were numerous, many of whom did what they could to extinguish the bluing mass, which strangely contrasted with the calm Memo of the night. How the fire originated has not as pi lass ascertained. CROSSING A Itivra.—On Tuesday morning, about eaves &aloes, as a yawn named Lowis, who lives at Low pw a s, s oor pe t rith, was =eau the river Mau by the Mapparstonts at Donato MID, land curling his los, a toy sow years old on his back, his foot slipped, and the IWO hi hi into the water, which was rather swollen at deo dos, ssi was carried down the stream a considerable awes brim his father could rescue him. When got out life was nearly extinct, but assistance being procured from the neighbouring houses, and the usual means to restore life in inch cases being applied, the little fellow was brought round. Desire, Nov. 17. The loosing Mad, which started the idea, a few weeks sinoe, of Priam Albert parchuing the Come marairopisty, as a family estate—a project not deemed so chimerical es some might suppose, and cer teddy one which would be inset popular in Ireland— now throws out a hint that the town of Galway may become the property of the City of Londoo, and be converted into the western outpost of the great VW I tropolis. Rumours are, it is stated, afloat d aim vast enterprise of this ort, and the establishment an American packet station at Galway is said to b o l awaited as the preliminary step.

At the official declaration of the poll at Cork by the Sheriff, the only candidate present was the succeesfnl one. After a few votes had been struck off in the scrutiny, the numbers announced were : For Colonel Chattcrton, 793; for Mr. M'Carthy, 684; majo rity, 209. A correspondence, which appears in the Evening Post of last night, reveals some of the most extraordinary proceediogs, on the part of the Orange body, that have yet come to light. In it the reader obtains a glimpse into the interior of the Over ge lodge; he ends several of the leading men there charged with an amount of corruption and dis honesty scarcely credible, and the whole rottenness of the system displayed. THE TENANT-PROTECTION MOTEMENT.—MZET ISO AT CALLAN.—The Kilkenny Journal states that an important meeting of the tenant farmers was held at Callan on Sunday, when resolutions in favour of protection to te nant farmers were adopted. A motion of which notice hod been giv is, to the effect that members' cards should con tain a pledge " not to take a farm from which a tenant was unjustly szpelltd," was withdrawn, under the advice of counsel. The Kilkenny paper state that there were 20,000 persons present, who came principally from Mullinehone, Killenaule, Dungan, Blievenamon, Curia', and Kilmaeow. THE NENAGII CHAPEL CASE.—This very unfortu nate disk still remains unsettled. On last Tuesday a public meeting wee held at the Hough Independent* Hall for the purpoes of preparinp an address, to be preempted to the eathelte clergy attending the month's mind of the Very Rev. Dr. O'Connor. The object of the address was to get them clergymen to interfere with the bishop for the removal of the Rev. Mr. Kenny. We subjoin the repl which the clergymen returned to the address " Gent lemen,—The very disempeetful and unwarrantable language applied to the Rev. Mr. Kenny, your parish priest, in the address read to us to-day would prevent 98 in any circumstances from eking it into consideration. And while you continue in • state of insubordination to the authority of in bishop it will be utterly impossible for us to interfere the manner reqnested." DESPERATE FIGHT.—One of the most desperate I riots that happened in this part of the country for • lung period, occurred in • place called the Yew Tree, • short distance from the village of Kiloomman, and within one mile and a half of Shinrone, on Tu sday evening. The con tending parties numbered about 50, and there were nearly equal numbers on both sides. Some of the combatants houtht with billhooks and other dangerous weapons, and stones were thrown in all dinctiont, which told fearfully on the heads and tams of the unfortunate sufferers, many of whom were cut, bruised, and mutilated in • frightful man ner. The battle raged for nearly an boor, as there were no police nearer than the Shinrone station to quell the riot. The original muse of the riot was the stealing of a quantity of apples from a man of the name of Lewis, who held an orchard from Mr. Fleetwood, who resides near the old castle of Behemore.—King's County Chronicle. ATTEMPT TO SHOOT MR. KififtWAN.—On Saturday nicht last another attempt was made to assassinate Mr. Francis Kiernan, nephew to the agent over the property of the Mesdames Scott, at Longhorns. Mr. Kiernan was ening at his lire with some friends, when the shot was fired in themes the window of the room. Most providentially • sack of oats had been removed near the window • short time before, which intercepted the ball, ant saved Mr. Kiersan's life —NenagA Guardian. MURDER OF MR. CAGE.—The persons in custody upon this charge were brought up for 'rumination on Friday last, at Fortune. Sir St. George Gore, the proprietor of the estates of which Mr. Cage sou agent, and Major Fox, of Annaglamore, with whom he is on a visit e were present at the examination. After a length ened Inquiry, three persons, named Bernard Oar ping, Edward Farrell, and Patrick Kelly, were fully I committed to abide their trial at the ensuing assizes. DESTRUCTION OF THE HILLSBOROUGH DISTILLERY BY Fins —On Tuesday night. shortly after 12 o'eledt, a fire breke out in the corn kiln in connexion with the =s borough Distillery, and which, we understand, originated in the flue of the kiln. The flames continued to progress until the premises were complete), gutted ; in fact, unt.l only a part of toe walls was left standing. We understand the pre mium were only partially insured; and we regret to add, that upwards of fifty persons will be thrown out of em ployment by this untortunwo occurrences—Belfast paper. AFFRAY BETWEEN THE MILITARY AND POLICE IN LONDONDSKRY.—On Monday evening last, in cons* quence of a riot taking place at the Bridge, between a number of I soldiers of the 95th depot. stationed in Derry, and some men who were engaged in driving into town, Sub constable Gregg interfered, and advi•ed the soldiers to go quietly to their barracks, when immediately one of the military struck Gregg a violent blow with • stick, and inflicted several wounds on his head. Sub - consta ble Gregg then returned to the police barracks, when Acting-constable Stewart and • party of polios moompanied him, for the purpose of arresting the offending soldier. Before the military were overtaken, they bad got into • public-house, at the waterside, into which Constable Stewart entered, and told the soldier that he was his prisoner until the picket should arrive. The soldier then deliberately retreated a @ter', and dealt Stewart • blew on the head with the stick, which injured him severely. The warfare now became general, and lasted a considerable time, until, at length, the soldiers were overpowered, when the originator of the affray and two of his comrades were secured and detained until the picket came forward, who conveyed them to Ebrington B anac k s .—Londonderry Journal. FALL OF RAILWAY ARCHES AT CAMDEN-TOWN. —Yestadsy morning, shortly before 8 o'clock, seven of the newly erected arches on the line of railway which Untended to connect the Camden-town Station of the North Western with the East India Decks, fell with a tremendous crash. The fallen arches were pert of a viaduct on the Kentish town and Holloway-radar. The watchman on duty stated that early in the morning " warning" was given that the arches were insecure from repeated creekiogs, and the gra des' enlargement of an irregular fissure in the buttress at the north end of the arch over the Kentish-tows road. Practice' men suppose that the accident arose from the Waking of the foundation of the buttresses. It is most providential that this occurrence took place on the Sunday. On other days up welt of 200 men are employed upon the works at the time; as it is, happily no ens is injured. INTRODUCTION OF Coxvicrs IN THE IDLE OF PoartAten.—A portion of tho 4th regiment of foot hurriedly passed through Southampton on their way to the convict dation at the Isle of Portland. The insubordinate conduct of the convicts there creates great alarm, and tun , dere a stronger military guard necessary. A stronger mili tary guard has been found atoessery at Pannust, in the Isle, of Wight, in consequence of the numerous convicts that maps and the excitement and alarm they cause amongst the Inhabitants of the Isle of Wight. TOIL AND NORTH MIDLAND. KNOITINOLNY AND Damon S•xmon BILANCIL—The works on this line are now making rapid progress, but owing to the alteration of tire level of the Ferrybridge and Doncaster turnpike roads ass having been provided for in the act of parlisment the surveyor of that read, and some of the trustee*, have VW. Wei the beading of the bridge woes it for some months, oladthiltM mope' the railway company to raise the bridge and eaMoneat about seven feet higher than the intended level (the greater part of the embankment on the tweet side being already at its height, and permanent line _put down), Of met from them a larger sum of money. The railway WOMB the terepike on the crown of a hill, which is mon them eight feet meat ; it Is, therefore, evident that the low est,* et the road as proposed by the co mpany would be a very material public benefit. For the re pai r of this road a large sum of money is annually paid by t he township of Fer rybridge, the railway cons_pany (as rate-payers) being consi derable contributors. The overseers, surveyors, and inhabitants recently came to the unanimous reellation of obis( a speck' meeting of the turnpike trustees, which has boatel, according to advertisement, at Wentbridge. The Ito be derived from the road being levelled were tang _espisiami by the officers; and, after much altercation fia ha s sidle, and an intimation being given that the town ship oboald take the road into their own hands to repair, the Melless divided, when there was a majority of three en Item of lowering the road, seven for and four spinal. The work WAS commenced last Monday, and will speedily be somploted ;so that in • little time the rails will be 'mid Snottingley, through Ferrybridge, to the river. The via duct is now hat progressing to a finish woes the willow groused at Brothorton. Many lengths of the tunnel are also completed ; so that then is no work of much importune to complete, ethoce xpt the bridge over the river Aire. This branch will form junction with the Great Northern Railway. NARROW ESCAPE OF BLEt FROM FIRE.

THE LEGACY OF £IO,OOO TO THE NATIONAL GALLBILY.—The will of T. D. Lewis, Esq , (who was the youngest and only surviving son of the celebrated comedian) has been proved at Doctors Commons. It is worthy of public note, and the memory of the deceased demands public gratitude for a legacy of 10,0001. New W. 51. per Cent. Annuities to the National Gallery. To this munificent be• quest is attached • gilt of • valuable portrait of the co• median in these words: " From a dents to perpetuate the memory of one of the beet of lathers, whores private worth and public merit were dike deservedly appreciated, I give and bequeath to the trustees of the National Gallery the full lonll9i Portrait of my late dear father, William Thomas Lewis, Esq., painted by Sir Martin Archer She. ; and it is my particular request that. in consideration of the above• mentioned legacy, they will permanently provide some con spicuous and eligible situation in the National Gallery for the said portrait, and preserve the same it good condition." The portrait represents the late celebrated comedian as the Marquis in the " night Hour." The pecuniary legacy is directed to be in vested upon trust to pay the dividends to Miss Lewis, the testator's only surviviog sister, for life, and at her death the 10,0001. is to be transferred to the trustees of the National Gallery, " To the intent that the dividends, interest, and annusl proceeds to arise therefrom (but not the capital thereof) may be laid out for the use or objects of the said gallery, or otherwise in the improvement of the fine arts in such manner as the trustees of such gallery, or any 03m. mittee or committees of the governor* or directors thereof for the time being shall think fit."

In the event ofldies Lewis notgdisposing of the whole, or any part of the estate, some contingent legacies are given to private friends and charities, and the ultimata residue is to be divided between the deceased's only surviving relatives. The property is sworn under 35,0001. — Observer. ANT IN THE COLONIT.B.—A few years ago, when a parliamentary committee was investigating the character of society in our penal colony, it was stated in evidence that the richest men in Sydney, with 70,0001. or 80,0001 . a year, went oat as a convict, and that many others of the same class boast of incomes not much inferior. Sir Robert Peel, enrprised at such • statement, inquired how these men spent their money—if they encouraged the arts, and collected pictures The answer war, that there were very few pictures in the province, and no artists. Five or sir years must have pro duced • change in this respect, for we have now before us a report of a second exhibition of paintings in Sydney, by Dubois] artists. Last week we had t 3 chronicle en invasion of Constantinople by the arts. It ia not lets gratifying to see their humanising influences begin to operate in a held so much more remote as regards physical dibtance, and tar more so by virtue of the peculiar oonditions to which it has long been surrendered.—Athnueuss. DRAMA. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. A new comic drama, under the title of the "Life guardsman," was produced here on Saturday night. The piece has several amusing situations, and the plot exhibits some ingenuity. Jack Gorget, a sergeant in the Life Claude of a bygone age, having escaped from his creditors, seeks refuge in the palace ; and, by a species of license not understood, in the present day except by the " Boy Jones, * l obtains admission into one of the royal apartments. I Here he remains all night, and on the following morning his privacy is disturbed by the entrance of ' Jacob Pounce and Tapeworm (confidential secretaries to the Duke of Buckingham and the Earle!' Oxford), who for some unknown reason come to the palace for the purpose of discussing a peccadillo of the Duke of Marlborough. This distinguished person has, it appears, been guilty of bribing a tradesman for some political purpose, and the Duke of Bucking ham's secretary is employed to recover certain letters which are supposed to establish the charge against the Duke of Marlborough. These documents have been traced to the possession of a court milliner; and in order to secure them, Mr. Peter Pounce, assisted by his brother in office, undertakes to obtain for the said I milliner a husband who may have sufficient power I over her to lead to the immedia'e restoration of the I letters. The reward promised to the happy individual who shall succeed in consummating this laudable scheme is 5001. on his marriage, and the Ike sum on his presenting the documents to the opponents of the I Duke of Marlborough. Mr. Pet.l. Pounce exerts all his I energies towards placing his nephew—a sergeant in I the Coldstream Guards—on the right road to receive this addition to his fortunes, and through the stupi dity of Tapeworm, the Life Guardsman is mistaken for the intended husband. Jack Gorget accordingly lays claim to all the emoluments destined for his I brother in arms, and being by far the more prepos- 1 missing of the two, soon succeeds in obtaining the hand of the pretty milliner, who has been in vited to the palace upon some pretext connected with her avocation. The gallant life guardsman escapeswith this interesting young damsel, in the disguise of a German dancing-master, and being pursued by the Coldstream hero and the two secretaries, a series of absurdities occur which end in the complete discomfi- Iture of one sergeant, and the happiness of the other. I Wigan played the Life Guardsman, and rendered the character tolerably amusing ; but it was not a part adapted to his peculiar style of acting. Miss Louisa Howard was a most interesting little milliner, and her bewitching dress was sufficient to turn the hearts of all the life-guardsmen in the regiment. The other characters were performed by Messrs. Honey, Bay, and Wynn, and the piece was, on the whole, mom fal, but the applause at the end was not such as to augur !or it a very profitable career.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.-SATURDAY. Tan QUZIN W. Tan INHABITANTS OF WOLVIIIIHAMPTON. —EININIIIII OF PAUPER LUNATICS. In this cue two orders of justices had been brought before the court by certiorari, calling on the guardians of the pa rish of Wolv.rhanipton to pay to the Manchester union the expenses for the examination and adjudicating the settlement, and also for maintenance of a pauper lunatic during his con tinuance in the county asylum. He bad recovered and been discharged, and the order for sending him to the asylum wes made twelve months before the order for the payment of the expenses. The question turned principally on the construe• tion of the 68th au. 8 & 9 Vict., e. 126, which enacts " that it shall bet wful for two justices for any county or borough in which any lunatic asylum or licensed Louse is situate or to which such as shall wholly or in part belong, or from any part of which any pauper lunatic shall have been sent, to inquire into the last legal settlement, of any pauper confiked or ordered to be confined therein. The points raised were—first, whether after a lunatic hee been discharged he would come within the meaning of the word*" confined or ordered to ;:e coefined," so as to give the justices power to make an order for his maintenance and expenses during the time he was in the asylum ; and, secondly, whether the justices could make an order for the expenses incurred in sending him to the asylum, and adjudi cating his settlement 12 months before the other order wee made, su pposing th at they had power to make it. A rule had been obtained to show cause why the orders should not be quashed. Mr. Pashley now appeared in support of the orders, and untended that, looking to all the statutes on the subject of pauper lunatics, commencing with 17 Oeo. 11., c. 5, down to 8 & 9 Vie., c. 126, the intention of the legislature was to relieve parishes from the burden of the expenses of pauper lunatics and to place them on counties. Mr. Huddlestene, in support of the rule, was proceeding to contend that a lunatic pauper who bad been discharged from an asylm could not come under the denomination of One who w a s '" confined, or orgerecl to be confined" therein, when be was stopped by the court. Their lordships were of opinion that the question was to be determined by the words of the 58th section 8 & 9 Viet., C. 126, and if the magistrate did not proceed regularly under the provisions of that section their orders failed. If the matter stood merely on the word " confine I," wititut the addition of tie words "ordered to be confined," there might be a doubt, but se it wee, this was a special provision meant o meet the ease of a lunatic piuper sent to an asylum, t and the words could n ot apply to one who had been confined there and discharged, for in such a cue the order n therefore, atend. O the second fur confinement was concluded, and the question of the p au per's settl emen t alone was to be determined; the jpousintitcesth'epoy g w a e ve r wnaos'oproion, but the n rule was discharged.
