topic at all their mesdagn At the late Wattmeter meting Mr. Penn Marmon, referring to local bsation, declared " Weft kaiak.' passes without mmeething extra being MtMed open as." Mr. Jame 3LasasEr said, " the ihnesre only wanted to be It lima fawn taxation end local burdens ea the foreiAm nountrise with whom they bad to compete." Thie teen whom the farmers mad to parliament to repe llent them—the " farmers' Mends" as they call theol ogises —have effected to agree and sympathise with the agriculturists in their complaints about load taxation. They persuaded the farmers to vote for them by pig relief from the burden of excessive local tamales. ut when a measure is proposed for that end they defeat it, and that by mean and indirect trickery; and they laugh aloud at the success of their own dishooesty in the hearing of the men they have gulled. In commoo justice the tenant farmers cannot be spared one iota of the insult their chosen champions ban offered them. The bitter draught is of their own brewing' and they must drain it to the dregs. The fiertnen friends ham done more than break their aurvessin ' to obtain a reform in the system of al expenditure. The check upon the enormous increase of minty rates proposed to be established by Mr. Houit's bill, was by conferring upon the vate-payers a voice in their sseessment and expenditure. This is the only efficsr time remedy for the eviL A law may declare that the utmost economy shall be observed, but without' trustworthy persons to execute the law it will be a mere dead letter. Paid agents, subject to a cantrai government beard, cannot be trusted with the mem Goa of such a law. Parliament has no time to watch over and control its application. The rate-payers themselves, by the irstrumentaliry of elected repre sentative+, can alone insure good faith and seaway in the levying and application of county rates. But Sir Joan Pcxnerrox ' and the rest of the proem tioaist squires, will not hear of such a remedy. They dedus that the rate-payers are such fools that they cannot bs treated with the management of their own local affair.lmpartial by-ander% seeing that the parties thus unceremoniously declared by our Palm°. move to be ince:able blockheads, are the parties who sent them PiIINOTONII to parliament may be pardoned if they suspect that the Ramo lows msy know bed ; bat assuredly it is neither civil nor grateful in the PAXINGTONs thus to repay by deceit, insult, and derision, the voters who have made them members of parliament. Sir JOHN PAKINGTON, as the mouthpiece of the prometioeists, declares that the authority to impose and assets 000nty rates, and to disburse them with out accounting for their intromissicns, ought to re main as at preeent, vested exclusively in the justices of peace. Sir GEORGE 'GREY, as the mouthpiece of the coaksing free trade conservatives and coiner votive whigs, declares that he is ready to admit a certain number of representatives of the rate payers, chosen at second hied by the guardians whom the rate payers elect, to co-operate with the magistrates in the administration of the county rates, but he in sists upon there being a majority of magistrates at the county financial boards. The difference between Sir Jonx end Sir Geonoz is this: Sir Jona would openly deny to the ratepayers any the slightest control over me appropriation and disbursement of the rates they pry; Sir tiMORCHI would consent to an arrange ment by which the rate-payers might be deluded into the bel of that they exercise some control, while, in reality, they do not. Sir JOHN would rob the rater payers by brat and laugh at them ' • Sir GEORGE would slyly pick their pockets, and affect to condole with th. m fo, their losse•. For our pie we have fom the first declared that we looked upon Mr. 111111e8 bill as a compromise ; that e e regawled •he Elbowing magistrates to nomi nate say of their number to sit at the county financial board. as a concession to the power of that illiberal class. The Justices of the Peace are a bcdy of men selected by the arbitrary choice of the ministers of the day to act as local judges and as administrators of local finance. They are chosen principally from among the supporters of the ministers who appoint them, and with a view to extend and confirm the poli tical influence of the ministers at whose pleasure they hold their appointments. Both in their judicial dud adniinistrative capacity they are objectionable as being p litical tools. In their judicial capecity they are further objectionable am being almost to a man in veterate game preservers, and accustomed to pervert their power into the metre cf oppressing all whom they suspect of beirg or being Direly to become poaohen. In their administrative capacity they are object'orable as having either no interest in enforcing leconomical expenditure of the local rates (a man may be a justice of peace in a county where he is not liable to pay rate.), or a positive interest in laying them more heavily upon other classes of ratepayers to the comparative exemption of their own. Itis impossible that we can have au equitable and efficient local Judi esture, or local financial administration, until the Judi tied functions of tie justices of peace are devolved spas resident stjp.ntliary magistrates, and their adman battier) functions upon local boards entirely and directly elected by the ratepayers. For such an effective measure of reform it is utterly ' • hopeless to look to protectionists, free trade conserver lives, or ario!Onalic whigs. ll the agricultural WW I Mituenc:ei really wish to get rid of exceesive and improperly applied local rates, and of the nuisance of game preserves, they must join with the terrible "Manchester school"—the parliamentary and finan cial reformers. And though they may not believe as now, we tell them confidently that they will seek this alliance before many years have passed over their heads. LAST night Mr. GLADSTONE drew the attention of the house to the Rebellion Losses Bill, recently pissed by the Canadian legislature, and now awaiting the final action of the imperial government. The question being one involved is mach misconception, and one on the decision of which very important fines will depend, we deem it advisable once more to group together the main points connected with it. During the rebellion of 1837-8, a considerable amount of property was both neceassrily and wan ) tmly destroyed in both province:. Immediately ' after the suppression of the insurrection the right of those who had thus suffered to compensation was both ecoognised and acted upon in the two provinces. In Lower Canada, where the constitution was sus pended, this was done to a limited extent by oat mins ci the Governor and coanciL In Upper Canada, ea set was submitted, in 1838, to the provin cial raiment, making provision for indemnity is memories. la 1840, additional property having In the asentime been destroyed by American invaders, anodise set wee peened, embracing within the pro paid 'imdsmaity those who had thus suffered from the invade& Bath this and the other act however, - having bets deemed of too partial application, an other sit was passed in 1841, by the united parliament of Carlo (the two prosiness having by this time been mated), with a view to extend tte benefits of the former acts to many who wonli have been excluded from ompsesation but for the enlargement of tit=ef these acts. But for this last est, the soi-eksent loyalists would have %A do 'admiralty mshnholy to themisivee, whilst nosy, wimps only crime was that they belonged to Jabal puiV, a mess fraction of which only Rebelled, sad w nee preperty was wantonly destroyed . by parties eating, or sminek assuming .to act, in the • vents, of the sown, nimbi have been shut ant from cespmesties. The set of 11141 thus gave a more walergad cad liberal epistles to the two former acts, and in 16411 the mums wee provided for paying the clam whisk hed hem made good under tbne Kb. it is extremely important here to observe that, although the legislation which resulted in the pay ment of "jest loose in Upper Canada extended over sevenyaars, net ass ward was emend against it as nooessl Wheal, illegal, pwilons to the empire, or to the interests or the honour of the a er gam itwa. was both originated and:brought to a does doring . tbo pvemment and under the sus oos of the pronemi take now in opposition. There ,vas then no M'Nris to denounce it as providing for the payment of rebels ; 110 OLADSTONI to propose to isteehes with it es an imperial negation. it was °H eaded, promoted, and ccoeituled ass local matter, lies ' end was left massively to kcal motion. Providing, as it simply did, fee the appropriation of local fue ihr a keel perms, it is &Malt to see how it Geed ham bees otherwise dealt with. Isdeesnity baying been thus gives; to the starers YU ()mots, rearms Indio° required that unser skims el a aim diameter in the lower , . Should sleek merlegeed. In 1846,the present being thus Is pover, NA boss m fi at : wand pillimmality isigart e diumplei to si the Lower Canadian habitant, by initiating a measure Tar indemnity to the sufferers in the lower province. They voted an address to the Governor, praying him ea-uppoint a commission to inquire into the extent of the losses suffered. The commission was appointed ; hat, as afterwards appeared, it had no power to ateiu diode aria the nature of the claims. It had to con fine itself ' both as to the nature end extent of the claims, to the allegations of the claimants themselves. It was thus that claims to the extent of 241,0001. were to it. In its report the commission divided Ce r ilinuOnto different clemes,charecterising &large peportisa of them as, in its opinion, inadmiasible,aad the sum of 100,0001. as a "general esti 'Zitritfthe extent of the claims which it considered admissible. Now, this " general estimate" was all that the samodeekm was author;sed to make, taring hew eillelally informed by the government that its "gemenl estimate," when given, " would afterwards term the subject of more minute legislative limitary." As this " more minute legislative inquiry" could only be instituted ender an act of parliament. A pledge was thus given by the government that a legislative measure was in contemplation as the result ot the to , port of the commission. But, although the tories re mained for two years longer in power, no steps were taken towards the redemption of this pledge. They had failed in the party object which they had involve, ant abandoned the prosecution of a measure demanded by justice and sanctioned by precedent. Early fa 1848 the tories were ejected from office, and the liberals succeeded to power. They had no alter native but to take up the measure where their peed,- ammo had left it; nor had they any desire to evade it, bad the alternative been within their reach. Bat no I l soosier did they take a step towards redeeming the =oldish predecessors, than they encountered Set *het opposition from those who, by logical leesesfordee seemed to be most committed to their support. Ties factioconess of such a course was only equalled by its selfishness, the sole object of the oppo sitioa brig be regain the power which they had lost. Tha t gonad taken by the opposition was, that the bill was iele for the compensation of rebels. Even were the ..negation true, it comes with bat an ill gnostical those who had themselves originated It was not only their own measure with respect to Lower Oisaft, but was in exact accordance with the precedent set by them in their legislation for the per Province. In this particular the bill differed from the Upper Canada acts, that, in order to avert cavil and disarm suspicion, it was made more stringent in its exclusion of the claims of acteal rebels than were these acts. Yet, notwith standing this accordance, with this difference, the measure was violently opposed, on the ground alluded to. Nowit follows that, if this ground were well taken, the whole of the legislation for Upper Canada was equally objectionable. But if this legislation was legal and constitutional, and the cpposttion contend that it was, it follows that this measure is the same. The opponents of the bill must either admit or deny that the precedent was unexceptionable. If they admit it, they are, in the last degree, inconsistent in contending that the present measure is objectionable; if they deny it they may be consistent in tilting excep tion to this measure, but nothing more. For, after all, the principal point to be considered is the character of the bill itself. Without reference to precedent, or the position of parties in respect to the bill, is it or is it not a measure which contemplates the payment of rebels? To allege that it is so is simply to misconceive or to misinterpret the terms and scope of the bill. The losses suffered by rebels cannot be termed "just loans." Yet it is to the payment of just lows that this measure is confined. It specifically excludes from the benefit of its operation such as either by con viction or confession are ascertained to have been rebel.. The claims of such parties cannot form the subject of that " more minute legislative inquiry" into the "general estimate" of the commission to institute which the bill has been submitted. Such claims are too obviously untenable to be even inquired into. Of the remaining claims, that is to say the great mom of them, some maybe as untenable as those just referred to, but they are not to be treated as such, on the mere suspicion entertained, or affected to be entertained, by the " loyalists," that the claimants were rebels. It will be the business of the commission to be ap pointed under the bill to separate the claims which are tenable from those which are not so—in other words, to discriminate between "just losses," and those which are not so. They only will share in the 100,0001. set apart for the payment of the claims who =wi sp succeed in tting their claims classed within the category of Just losses. But it may be objected that the co otters will act partially and dishonestly— that is to say, that they will award compensation to rebels. This is merely wumed, not proved. The conduct cf the commonroom will greatly depend upon the instructions issued to them. It is quite clear that they will not be instructed to indemnify the traitor. R:sides, no valid objection to the bill it self can be based upon the groundless assumption that its administration will act corruptly. Such, then, is the measure which has been de nounced in the province, by those who originated it and who established the precedent on which it is founded, ea a measure designed for the payment of rebels, and which is sought to be interfered with in this country by those who did not interfere with the precedent, or object to the course of the present Cana dian opposition when they originated the measure it self. There can be no difference of opinion as to the inconsistency and groundlemess of the opposition manifested against the bill in the province. But Mr. GLADSTONE and others seek to interfere with it here lin Its passage through its final stage, that of imperial allowance. they seek to do this on the ground of its being an imperial question. Bat what makes it so? It is not for Mr. GLADSTONE, who took no exception to the Upper Canada Acts as such—although under them not only many suspected, but some also who were convicted of treason, were indemnified—to except to it as an imperial question. Indepei!. deafly, however, of this consideration, there is nothing in the bill which brings it within the category of imperial questions. If it proposed to reward treason the case would be different. But it does not propose to do so. It simply proposes to app a l/ n th* finch of the province to the indemnification of " uat losses" suffered during the insurrection in the pr cs. In other words, it is a local money bill, and nothing more. Its allowance by the imperial authorities, therefore, is a matter of course, unless they are prepared to violate the constitution of the pro vince. It is one of those measures over which, on inferring responsible government upon the Canadian people, we have once and for ever abdicated jurisdic tion. Mr:Memnon' did not make a substantive mottos on the subject, merely asking for au assurance that rebels should not be compensated under the bill as it stood, or it rebels might be compensated under it, that its adios would be suspended until it might be so altered by the Canadian brgish.ture es to etc elude rebels from the benefit of its operation. Lord JOHN ROWELL, in reply, indicated that it was the intention of the gomement to support Lord Elam by leaving the bill to its operation. The final sane tion`of the Qum; could not be given to it until the instracdons issued to the commission had arrived. Thiel's' in accordance with Lord ELGIN'S own wish. The worse thus taken by the government is that for which we have all along contended.

Many of the difficulties which it was supposed lay in the way of sae It en exhibition had been removed. Many of the neessfeentren, who thought it would be injurious to Men to expose their inventions to the public pee, had been sweetened by the SUOMI of the Parietal exhibition, and had given their cordial adhesion to the project. It was intended that the exhibition should be quinquennial, and the council bad made application to the Board of Trade and the Com. missionees of Woods and Forests for a suitable site and building, and it was intended to hold the first grand display in 1861. They then tendered their thanks to the possessors of Mr. Etty'e pictures, who had forwarded them to their beatitudes& for exhibition, and took occasion to pan an eloquent eulogium upon the painter himself. The competition for the medal presented by his Royal Highness Prince Albert for the best paper on the cultivation of sugar, had produced eight Seethes, several of which the society deemed worthy , of rifted beside the ens to which his Royal Highness's rue had been assigned. Mr. Leon and Dr. Mitchell, who obtained the two chief prism, were both colonists, and the merits of Br. Mitchell's were so nearly equal to those of Mr. Leon's, that his Royal Highness had pro*** to continue a similar prize for next year, in the hope that Dr. Mitchell might be induced to come forward as the claimant of the first prize nest year.

HAMPTON RACES—TIitIftBDAY. Oar snticipations yesterday with regard to the attendance were more than realized—it was great beyond all precedent. The railway, of course, absorbed the lion's share of the tragic; "monster" trains were started from the Waterloo bridge station from nine o'clock in the morning natal be tween two and three, with as much rapidity as the safety of the public nattered expedient ; and so well were they ar ranged that beyond a squeeze at the station no inconvenience was sustained, and the 'majority reached the amuse in time for the first rate ; some hundreds, however, who had not read the announcement that the first race would come off at half-past one did not get to the ground until after it was sun. The road was not deserted ; on the contrary, we question if on any previous occasion it has been so thronged. The steawboats also were patronised to come extent; and to those with whom time was no object, and duet not a &side. ratam, they proved far more agreeable than either rail or road. The amsrablage, we repeat, was enormous, hums& that although the maaagere of the races had so far acted upon our saggesties as to hiatus the number of the polka, it was obvious that fifty or a hundred more ought to have been em- Word ; the impediments in the running grated at the 61.* el the course in the early part of the afternoos, were complained of, .and with mat reason, by the joekeys—that tie] lass* without accident is miraculous.

This was an indictment for perjury preferred by Mr. Oddy, the secretary to the Duke of Brunswick, at the instance of his Highness, against Mr. Barnard Gregory, Mr. Ghislin, Mr. Pearson ' and Mr. Pepper, all of whom had been con nected with the Satirist newspaper. The indictment charged the defendants with having been guilty of perjury in swearing certain affidavits when Mr. Barnard Gregory was brought up, in Area 1848, to receive the judgment of the court for libelling the Duke of Brunswick. Oa that occasion it had been sworn by the defendants that Barnard Gregory was neither directly nor indirectly connected with the Satirist newspaper. It appeared that at that time Pearson was the proprietor of the paper which he had purchased of Gregory, and for which he had given him bills of exchange; and in case of their not being paid, there was a power of reentry on the part of Gregory. Mr. Pearson subsequently disposed of the paper to a person of the name of Carroll, upon which Gregory said that Pearson had no right to do so, as it was not has property, he not having paid the bills of exchange which he had given when he bought it. It was subsequently arranged that Carroll only having paid Pearson a portion of the purchase money, that the remainder should be given to Gregory ; and accordingly Carroll banded him over 1001. in cash, and gave him four bills of exchange for the remainder, which, however, he was not able to honour. In support if the indictment, several witnesses were called; and from their evidence it appeared, that although Barnard Gregory bad received the 1001. and four bills of exchange from Mr. Carroll, yet he never intended to become the proprietor of the Satirist newspaper agent, and never since he sold it interfered in its management. At the close of the cue for the prosecution, Mr. Justice Erle, without calling upon Mr. Chambers to address the jury for the de fence, left it to the jury to say whether they considered that under the circumstances of the cue the defendants had con spired to deceive the court by swearing false affidavits, when it appeared that, with the exception of Gregory's having re , eeived the money and bills from Carroll, which he was en titled to do, he had no further connexion with the Satirist newspaper since the time when he sold it.—Thejury imme diately acquitted all the defendants. POLICE.-YESTERDAY. GUILDHALL. - CH ANOI op UTTERING YonoliD RICS/PTI.—TIRI WELSH SOCIETY.—Mr. Edward Witham Richard, of Harpurureet, Red Lion-square, surgeon, was charged with uttering two forged receipts for rent under the following circumstances. A clerk from the office of Mr. Humphrey, the solicitor, attended to prosecute, and Mr. Childs, of the firm of Wire and Co., defended the prisoner. Mr. Humphreys's clerk said that for some years Mr. Richard was a member and an elder of the managing corn. mittee of the Welsh Calvinktic and Methodist Society, which had two chapels, one being in Jewin crescent and the other in Denmark-street, Soho; and he was in the habit of paying the rent for the latter until about eight months back, when he seceded, and a Mr. Edwards was appointed in his place. That person, on receiving the money from the committee for the Christmas and Lady-day quarters as they became due, handed it to Mr. Richard, requesting him to pay it as he lived either next door or next door but one to the landlord, and let him have the receipts, which Edwards got some time after, and they were duly filed ; but in oonsepence of the committee receiving a letter from MriLilly, the landlord, requesting hie rent for Lady-day, and heptog that for the future it would be paid earlier each quarter, inquiry was set on foot, and it was discovered that the two last receipts were forgeries, and a warrant wee obtained for his appre hension. Mr. Ebenezer Williams said, I am secretary to the com mittee of the Welsh Society, meeting in Jewin-crescent. We have also a chapel in Denmark-street, Soho, of which Mr. Lilly is the landlord. About the Bth of January 61. was paid to Mr. Edward Edwards, to give Mr. Lilly the quarter's rent, due at Christmu last, for the chapel in Minmerk street ; and about a fortnight after he brought me back the receipt produced, but it bore no date, and I endorsed it as wail and it was filed with other ramjets. On the 26th of March I paid Mr. Edwards another dl. for the Lady-day quarter, and he brought a similar receipt some days after, which was filed in my presence, and locked up. Cross-examined by ldr Childs.—The marks on the back of the second receipt were made in my presence by Mr. Hughes and Mr. Jones, after they had been to the landlord and pro duced the receipt in consequence of his letter, and he pro nounced them to be forgeries. I cannot say that I examined the receipt particularly, as I had no motive for suspecting that anything was wrong. Mr. Hughes and Mr. Jones are two of the elders. Mr. Evan Angell, of No. 8, Charter- house-lane, said—l am one of the managing committee, and was present when the second receipt was taken off the file, and the one pro duced I identify as the same. Mr. Edward Eiwards; of 34, Pitt's-place, Backside, said— lam one of the elders of the Welsh Methodist Society. I received the money to pay the rent on the 26th of March for the quarter then due. I gave it to Mr. Richard for that ramose, as I knew he had been in the habit of receiving it for years. bra few weeks he gave me this receipt at his own house, which ' I put on the ills with other receipts, and locked them up in a cupboard. Mr. John Henry Lilly, of 13, Harpur-street, Red Lion- square—l am the proprietor of the chapel en Denmark street, and have been in the habit of receiving rent from the Welsh Society. It was venally paid by Mr. Richard. Neither of the receipts bur my signature. and the name Is spelt differently on them. Alderman Carden.—Were they written by your autho rity Mr. Lilly.—They was not. I received the rent for Christmas', but not for Ladyday. I received the first on the 28th of Muds. fled ma the 22nd of May I mote the note 'mined requiring the rent for the Lady-day quarter. I think it was Mrs. RUkard paid me, and I gave a receipt for it, but not this one. Mr. Alderman Carden said it had been clearly proved that Mr. Richard had uttered a forged receipt, and therefore be should remand him until Wednesday amt.
