OUR REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM RIPON. We have to-day to tell the tale of a most degraded and debased constitueecy. It may be said, without exaggeration, that in Ripon every spark and particle etpablie spirit is literally crushed! In other need notion boroughs, at least the dyieg embers of political opinion may remain, giving hope, if no tut, of vitality hereafter. But in Ripon there is bet the dry , cold, cheerless ashes of a own Singly - ing flame. In the whole town you could scarce excite ass mace to look forward to a better future. The short-lived independence of the place born of the Re form Act is not merely smothered, dead, and buried, but every trace of its progeny—every sign of the inheri tance it might have bequeathed—has been carefully =a c t is, Nothimg remains bat sad and mournful the painful memory of a brilliant example ending in an irretrievable ruin. The representation of Ripon, from a very remote period down to the Reform Act, had been a mere to the estate of Studley Castle. A hundred M me f a c: l ty e burgopholds possessed by the proprietors of that estate, and exercised after a fashion more than usually unscrupulous, enabled the family of Aialabie and their successors to re turn two members for the town. The estate of Studley, in 1832, was held by a maiden lady. The House of Commons, with fastidious delicacy, went out of its way some years ago to suppress in one of its reports all mention of her name. In page after pegs of evidence, teeming with the strongest re cords of electioneering abases, Miss Limnos, of Stud ley, is only referred to u" —." Seth scrupulous caution has not been exhibited by parlianw o n o t in dealing with the character end reputation of in ri des]s far leas deserving public reprooL It is to be accounted for upon the supposition that the com mittee thought it unfair to hold Miss Lawrence responsible for the acts committed in her name. The lady bad a friend and adviser is a high functionary, the present Vice- Chenseller et MlOnd, who held the somewhat un seal Gies d " waiter" of her castes, and who is believed, and apparently not without reason, to have bee. the real dictator to the town of Ripon. At any rate, in the two last boroughmengering parliaments, the occupants of the seats were two Lincoln's-inn barristers, Mr. Louis Hayes Petit and Mr. George Spence; and it is much more reasonable to suppose that they were the nominees of the " auditor," than that they held their seats as the favoured swains of the 0 Stedky ledy." Great was the joy in Ririe when the Reform Act passed. The town is by no means an !magnificent or contemptible place. There is wealth in it, though it is anasoompaased with independence. It boasts of a ' cathedral church, and in oar day has been thought of suMsient ermsecienoe to be elevated, with Manche.- ter, to the seat of a bishopric, and the centre of an important *Nepal system. Oust was the joy there when the Reform Act pealed. The people really sup posed themselves emancipated. The Ist of August, 1834, was not a day of more signal rejoicing among the slaves of the West ladies than was the day of the mal assent to the Reform Bill among the slaves of Miss Lawrence's political &minim They believed that they were free. The benaderise of the had been extended; the righter_ }remised to = 1 ; the names of at lout 400 destine; and tw the zt men end true were likely to primed as candidate. These were Mr. Thomas Bitchingmen Manly, of lionneyford, and Mr. Joshua Samuel Crompton, of Sion-hill, both near neighbours to the town sad representative. of families held in high m oped throughout the ommty. With these maidates it was felt that Ripon weisM ammo a parliamentary position not unworthy Os character of the city, for under the new charter of liberty, said the towns people* horostkinciegering is at an end for ever. Poor, deluded people ! Soon, too soon, were they destined to discover how gram was the de ceit. The old Studley members had, indeed, retired, but it was only to give plus to candidata* yew associated with the snout system, but not ken capable of riding rough shod over a cosidtneney. It was a curious exchange that was made : the two Chancery lawyers gave plus to two military martinets. They were Gemmel Sir Charles Whim, who was jest at the moment fresh from presiding over the court-martial which had sat at Bristol on the ill-fated Colonel Brevities, and Oohed Markham, a grandson of Archbishop Mark ham, who filled the see of York for • period of thirty years, from 1778 to 1807. To folly appreciate the position of the borough at this time, it must be borne in mind that a considerable num ler of boner holders still had a right to vote. This, mad avery strung exercise of Miss Lawrence's Win es" rendered the contest severe. It became, indeed, towards the close much more narrow than bed been expected. Strong efforts were evidently bang made by the tory party, but the voters were at that time too inexpenenced in election *lairs to dis cover the form which they assfamed. However, Messrs. Stavely and Crompton were returned. Their ma jority wee may six votes; the numbers being 188 for each of the liberals, and 182 kr General Dalbiac.

The limbo eltbe borough were eatmiisel by the Reform Ant biped the limits of the town. Several fields on the Studley estate were divided Off Into allotments, and sheds he cattle were built apes dim, after the hsbion of the a unnise at Tatar. The parties pd into pone:ask& of these cow-houses ware entered on the register as occupants of "building and land," and were permitted by the revising barrister to enjoy the franchise. Two fanned, who refund to allow votes to be thus made upon their lands, were summarily !ejected—and one of them was, perhaps, the best fanner in all Yorkshire. At a subsequent period the system of faggot-vote making was oan4sd even further than this. The right of voting is rival, under the 27th sec tion of the Reform Act, to any person occupying any building, being, either separately or jointly, with any land within the borough, of the annual value of lOL A very great latitude has been given to the intnwe teflon of this word " occupying." At Ripon Mr. Revising Barrister Pollock seems to have unde rstood it to mean this: that a man having a shed in the town of no real value, and a piece of ground outside the town of 101. a year value, shall have a right to vote. One of the " buildings" we saw at Ripon, which confers, under Miss Lawrence, the privi lege of the franchise upon this principle, was as wretched a places as can be imagined : the roof half off, the window blocked up, the door fastened with a padlock, and all the filth of the loca lity heaped befo-s it. Talk of universal suffrage not being " respectable !" What do the great locals and ladies of the land my to the respectability of the reform ten-pounder ? Bat to return to the elections. When the dissolu tion came in 1835 it was apparent that the liberal party had no chance. Alter the penalty paid by the voters of 1832, it amounted, in feet, to a cruelty to ask a reform elector to vote a ga inst Miss Lawrence. General Dalbiao and Mr. Pemberton, of the chancery bar, werethe Studley candidates. Mr. Crompton with drew his prehinsions te!the seat: Mr. Stavely, however, thought it right to give the independent voters an opportunity of recording their opinions, and also to test the length to which the Studley party would go in exercising their tenants' suffrage& So completely had they been brought into subjection, that not a single tenant of Miss Lawrence voted for the liberal ! The poll wee as follows :—For Dalbiac, 246 ; Pem berton, 235 ; Stavely, 125. Of the 235 voters for Mr. Perabertoo, there were : 170 101. householden, good votes, 69 of whom were tenants of Mies Lawrescs. 21 ditto, divided qualifications ; of these, 17 were __ Mama of the same. 20 eowhoo;e;otes ; 11 of these tenants of the .me (9 other tenant cowhounmen tendered, and were rejected). 24 Blame holden under the Studley estate ; fag got votes, every one. Thus, deducting the made votes and the tenant voters, Mr. Pemberton would have been in a minority, even allowing for six votes out of Mr. Stevely's 126 which appear to have been doubtful. The reeecendancy of the Studley interest thus secured, the borough relapsed into precisely its posi tion before the passing of the Reform Bill. In 1837, two Untwist's-inn men were returned, just as they had been in 1830 and 1831. At a s subsequent period the place supplied a seat to Sir eorge Cockburn, and it afterwards had the felicity of returning the Bombs:des litrioao Attorney-General for Ireland, .A.B. C. Smith. With the exception of Mr. Pemberton, who lea man of a noble impulse and a warm heart, scarcely one of the members ever con ferred the slightest benefit upon the town or its inha bitants—none of them were known or cared for, or obtained in the most remote degree the sympathies or affections of the people. In hot, Ripon and its pe ge : s t i never were represented except daring the three when Messrs. Stavely and Crompton sat in parliament. Studley was represented before, and it ham been ever Moos. Miss Lawrsna has now paned from the scene of election strife, and her property and influence in Ripon have gone to Earl de Grey, who rarely visits the piece, and perhaps is scarcely known by sight to a creature in the town. The Studley interest, how. ever, is maintained. At the last election it returned as one of the members no km a ppeerrssoonn than that once glowing reformer, Sir James Graham. R was not so many ymos ego that Sir James, in a tremendous' philippic at Hull, denounced the rotten home* et Ripon and the influence of the lady who Naiad its representatives !

IRELAND. Damns. Ramon 10. The Attorney-General will perhaps be called on to exercise hie talents again as a crown prosecutor, in case that a few more speeches be made against the rate in aid in the style of Lord Massareene's. He dared the government to collect the rate, and said that thrice My thousand soldiers would not do it, and quoted CO. of Moore's most martial songs. This speech was delivered at the court-house of Ballymena, end addreseed to the ratepayers of Antrim. In the south of Ireland the agitation has appeared in a mild form, and does not seem very infections there. The guardians of Mid!etre and Macroom hive petitioned against it. The Cork guardians have affirmed the neoserity of a rate in aid, bat have ea preened their °plaices that the rate should spread over the United Kingdom.

He ban still thirty cures to hear, which will take him the next there weeks to get through. The Right Hoc. Maurice Fitzgerald, better known as " The Knight of Kerry," is no more. He died at his sat at Valenti* in his 78th year. The knight was& pegs in Dublin Cute, to the Duchess of Rut land, in 1785, In company with another young gentle man, Master Arthur Wesley —now known as the Doke of Wellingtons. As may be seen la the " Cas tlereagh Corre•pondenos," the knight was intimately in the confidence of the Irish government at the period of the union. He canvassed the county of luny upon union principles and one of his chief and most influential supporters was Mr. John O'Connell, of Orens, brother of the Agitator, and father of Mr. M. J. O'Connell, now M.P. for Kerry. Throughout his life the knight we. a liberal tory in his politics, and lost the repre sentation of Kerry in consequence of his anti-reform politics; for though he had few religions prejudices, he had many social can. He bad great knowledge of Ireland, and was more intimately conversant with the secret history of Ireland since the union than an one now living. He was a debater of consi derable ability, ready and fluent, and was in his manners a polished Irish gentleman of 6,4 old school, of which Bowes Daly was the brightest model, and of which Chief-Justice Doherty is one of the few living ropeaentatives. The Knight of Kerry was as Irish courtier, and had some of the faults and all the graces of that school. He was for the grecter part of his life e most prominent the titter in Irish politics, and his services to catholic emancipation ought not to have been forgotten. WALES.

PaOTLSSIONALCLAIMS AGATNSTMON-PROTESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS IN CORONENSEIPII.—Mr. Chapman, the coroner for the borough of Manchester, bu been compelled, through declining heath, to resign his office. The remune ration averages about 4501. per annum. Nearly • dozen candidates eases into the field almost at ones, all of them either lawyers:or doctors, and there seemed to be every pro bability that the thing would result In a contest merely be tween the rival claims of the two professions, u to which con fers the best qualifications for the office. The vulgar aphorism that " there is nothing like leather" was put for ward with equal confidence by both, and no one seemed likely to dispute It for a time. Mr Prentice, for many years the editor and proprietor of the Memehostor Times, who had recently retired from business, has now stepped into the lists, and changed the character of the contest. The clear logical mind and masculine common sense evinced la his writings ever a long period of yearn seem to be universally recognised as qua lifications more than worthy to be pet in competition with mere professional trainist, and it seems not unlikely that all but one competitor will have retired before the day of elec tion. Mr. Prentice urges that if the mutant has been to make the office subsidiary to the business of a professional man, " its emoluments in this borough are swirly sufficient to assure the undivided attention of • competent person." He says : " If conferred upon a lawyer, and be joins with it his legal practice, he has a great temptation to neglect his public for his private duties. The same temptation is offered to a medical man. The condition of the coronimhips generally throughout the kingdom I. Plustrative of the mischief of the anion. It has been the observation of a learned judge, that the evidence under inquests has ohms bean reported in so slovenly • manner as, in almost every case, to be utterly useless. T , is may fairly be attr.buted to the confliction of private interest and public duty. The town council has now the opportunity of placing the office In a higher station in public usofulnt us, by searing it upon onewlso has no need to seek any additions to his official emoluments. And it is not merely that the duties of the office have the chum of being neglected when private business is conjoined with it, but there are °cations whea l " great firmness and independence are required. The coroner malt not to be in fear of the logs of a client or a patient from the conscientious dbehirge of his duty." He further contends, that U legal training is urged as an indis pensable requisite, the argument would be of equal weight against the appointment of a non-proleesienal mayor or ats, though these appointments are daily conferred rritu ti t serums.' to such considerations. Certainly in all inquisitions of a serious nature, such as MIN of man slaughter and murder—and these are of chief importance— the inquiries before earner., like those before magistrates, are only of a preliminary character,and there is much force in the argument. The question is exciting much interest, more especially as Mr. Prentice has great claims upon the com munity fee past gratuitous services in public ounces.

The caw now mounted a more grave aspect, and a warrant was immediately =said to secure: the attendance of Burke% but which, up to the present moment, has not been executed is consequent= of his shrew. The accounts were fouled to have been kept is a most =infused manner, some accounts being shoed which were still mum; and entries mad* l ia s th= poa ral (u which the retdrus are motto to t) which did not wee with them of the class and the depositors' books. Upon the examination hitherto made, there appears a deficit of abet= 8501. ; and of course a large number of accounts remain to be examined. Under these eirmisrances, a sub-committee was appshited to proceed to London to map tilt with Mr. Tidd Pratt, and see the eamptrollerieneral of savings banks, and the ad vice of this latter gentleman was, that no further der posits should be received or payments made until the amounts had been thoroughly inspected. The corn latter, dossequently, at a meeting held on Friday after noes, paired • resolution recommending the managers to does thellinek:for:depositisod payments until this hasboen dose, and to sail in the books of all the depositors. The de positors, however, says the Brighton Herald, need be under no alarm on this mount. The position of the b.nk is such as to secure them from loss. The amount of deposits is about 120,0001.; and the bank has the sum of 110,0001. invested in ;government securiies, and there is a further sum of 1,7001. arising from the accumulation of " extra profits," and which will, of course, be applicable to any deficiency that may not be covered by the prisperty or sureties of the defaulter. The amount of security given by Mr. Buckoll Is, we understand:Bool., and his sureties are the London Gua rantee tkwisty. It cannot be denied that the managers of the bank have not shown that are and vigilance which were required of them, or this unfortunate state of things could not hairs arisen. THE MURDER OF MPS JEFFERIEw at Bristol con tinues to farm the main topic of conversation in that city, and the interest excited by it was on Saturday much in creased in consequence of it becom;ng known that a little girl had made some isommunication cf facts alleged to have become known to her, which, if true, are calculated to throw additional light on the mysterious and horrible affair. The child is represented to have stated to some neighbrurs of the deemed some particulars of a conversation which poised within her hearing by parties whose names have (ss a matter attention) been kept secret. The effect of this conversation is understood to be that the parties in question, accompanied by a soldier stationed in the neighbourhood of Bristol, had been drinking at a public-house in the neighbourhood of the deceased lady's residence ; that towards morning they resolved upon going to the old lady's house, to which they obtained access by getting over some back premises ; that they then demanded some tea of her, which she would not give them, and that they then picked a quarrel with her, and beat her about the head with a stone. The old woman, they said, then cried out three times, upon which the soldier polled out his sword from the scabbard, and held it over her head. She did not cry out any more, but the blood flew out of her head and she died, after which they took something and went away. The child states that when she heard the men they were tiger, and one of them (whose name she gives) lay down on the Auer, and had a lot of gold in his waistcoat pocket. This statement has been communicated to the police, by whom the girl has been taken into custody. She has been subjected to a cross-ex amination by Mr. Herapath, the magistrate, but the par ticulars have not transpired. As she has not been yet dis charged, it would seem that her examination has not yet been completed. It is further understood that the ',resat girl has made a statement, alleging that a girl who had formerly lived in the house rushed into the house on Satur day and killed her mistress with a stone, and then gave her the property found upon her not to tell. earbibitionts. PANORAMA OF SWITZRRLAND—A ROOM= of Switzerland is a bold subject to attempt, but encase has attended Mr. Burford in its production. The Rigbi in oar tainly the !spot where most of Switzerland can be seen by looking round on a fine summer morning. There is not a Swiss traveller who has not some drowsy reminiscence of being awakened by an outlandish horn at an undue hour in the morning, and going out to see the sun rise upon Swit zerland from the Righi. Many are Mu disappointments of the who can only afford ono day at the Kialm, and who am obliged to content themselves with a peep at the thick mists with which they are surrounded, instead of enjoying the sublime views that a clearer atmosphere would disclose. None of these disappointments can occur at Bur ford's panorama ; the eye roams as unimpeded to the distant Hoch Seutia on one side as to the fertile plains of Arpin, where the Reuss is seen flawing towards the Rhine, which it enters,we believe, not at Coblens, as en ingenious geographer would have persuaded ua it did. The finest portion of the painting is that which stretches from the mountain slip of Lake Lowers and the Hoch Semis to the sharp peaks of Pilate and Keel. The rugged vale which leads up from Alter( to the pass of the Saint Gmhard may be traced to the summit of tt at mountain, to the right of which are the perpetual mows of the Faulhoni, Sehreckhorn, Wetterhorn, Eiger and Yungfrau. The freshness of the ground where the berg-fall took place some years since Is well rendered, and the white dotted chalets at its base give an idea of the terrific grandeur such a sudden irruption must have had. ' One turns with pleasure from it to contemplate the beautiful cantons of Lucerne, Soleure, Argau and Bale, with their green pastures covered with trees and cottages, so lately the Beene of a religious war, in which the bigoted prejudices of • priest-ridden population have sow yielded to more liberal 'Uwe. Such contemplations aa these forcibly occupy the mind when we think of the reality. Honour, then, to Mr. Burford, who eau disengage us, if it is only fur a moment, from the busy bum of town, and make us fancy that we breathe the air of the Alps and that we see around no, in sU its reality, the varied 'surface of such • land as Swit zerluid.
