Mr. GLADSTONE said it had not b. to usual for the house to give two notice days throughou• the session; for 'sacral sessions put there had been but one towards the dose, it being found convenient that the house should apply itself to di•posine of the business already before it.

BAULLIR said he wished to pat • quake to the noble lord the liewesety kw Foreign Affairs on this subject. It rppesred to be the practice of this government to claim compensation ter on, damage or injury sustained by British subjects, erik.e from riots or rebellions, in the countries where they had bees residing, without n feriae* to the laws or the legal tribe'. ale of those countries. It Wes appeared, from au cower given by the noble lord to the bon. member fur Southampton, that the government did not melee any such pretenoittes with respect to any damage or injury whit* British sal jects might sustain in the United Sta•es of Armenia. He wished to ale—iron, whys difertest souse had bees punned with reference teethe state/of Europe from that wren d in the Veiled Sammie America ; and secondly, whether is was tree that the representatives et Russia and Austria had protest* i against this interustatios of the law of nations, and had intimeted any intention of refusing to allow British subjects to reside in their O'ea unless they would nominee, to a certain eztent, the protection of their own country ? Vise:cant PALMERSTON said the hon. gentleman bad seiretsted the position and the doctrine of the government with regard to Mockler that had been recently made against Orem. Rs supposed the government to lay down the breed assertion that it would obtain compensation for any dement or losses which British subjects might sustain is (hires or ell where by reason of riots or disturbances, or from similar eelaille. They had laid down no such pupal tion. The demand is each case was found. d upon the par tinder c.rarinstances of the ease to which it applied, and did not involve any general principle Inches the boa. gentleman had referred to. (Rear, hear.) He apprehended that all cases of that sort must rest upon the particular circumstances connected with them. It was impossible to maintain that in all rests foreignen were entitled to compensation front the government of the country in which they sustained injuries and lessee such u those re ferred to ; on the other hand, it was impossible to maintain that, by the law of nations, there were not cues in which compensation was justly due. tHear, hear.) Vatted, who was usually considered a good authority on those mat ter", drew distinctions upon which the distinction which he (Lord Palmerston) drew was founded. In speaking of what happened as the result of war, and what was allowable in war, he stated that the pillage and destrectioa of towns, the devestation of a ormatry, the ravaging and Bettie, fire to houses, were odious sad detestable measures when practised without absolute necessity. In another passage he said that the property of neutrals ought te be treated by an army in a diff manner from that of the enemy which that army destroyed ; and is civil was the insuguts were the enemies of the army employed by the state. In another passage, where he investigated the eases in which governments were bound or not bound to make compensation for the various accidents resulting from the inevitable measures of war, such as the bombardment of towns or the like, he laid it down that no compensation mull justly be required, ex cept where the injuries were wanton and unnectwary for the purposes of the operations, or where they were necessary for operations undertaken deliberately, as the occupation of a house or a garden for the purpose of a battery or of fortl fiction. In such mom compensation was required. Ia those instances in which her Majesty's government had re gaited tmeapeasatiosi front other governments, there were, and there had been able to show that there were, peculiar rira uci a. stances in ouch cues entitling them to mike that claim. They drew no di-tiffiction, a. the hon. gentleman supposed between what hnpprited in Europe and what i n A mu l et : (Hear, hear.) There was one distinction, that the tri bustle of the United States were more open to give jitelgsmets consiewat with justice and right than were the tribunals in Erse other parts of the world to which he seed not more particularly refer. (Hear, hear.) With regard to the supposed announcement which the hon. gentleman imagined the governments of Ruse's and of Austria to have sad', it was perfectly true that those governments, is arguing upon what he conceived to be an imperfect know ledge of the circumstances, were of opioinn—especially the Austrian ment—that it was impossible to draw a die tineion between the subjects of a country and the resident foreigners, and that if a government chose to refuse to irs own sebjecte all compensation for injuries of any sort err kind ccumnitted in the course of hostilities, they were enti tled also to refuse it to the subjects of any foreign tenantry, and intimating, as an argument, that if the cool rare doctrine were maintained by the gourn• runt of Greet britais, it might be found necumary for the goy. recant of Austria to 000 sider how far It was consistent with its own interests to invite or encourage the r Writhe of Britith subjects in Austria. But it had not been particu lar y stated whether they would exclude our merchants, or Our eie'i engineers who were occupied in constructing their railways, or our rich travellers who were spending money In the *sunny. (Hoer, beer.) It was an erenment, and **thing more ; but event that argument he must bag leave to set the rumple of the government of Almeria itself.

Lord PALMERSTON replied is the negative, exphiledeg that the eolvetasy of Greece was under the guarantee of the three protecting pewees. CLERKS IN THE POST OFFICE. Mr. ANSTIY asked if the government would lay OS the table copies of the memorials from clerks in the Post-onee, addrened to the Postmaster. General, on the subject of Sab bath labour; and whether it was true that the office of chief clerk is the mosey order office having recently false meant, theaat, utak of the clerks in the order of seniority bad had an offer of the vacant aim on eordition of admitting that the statements in dm memorials referred to were false, aad that on their declining to do so, the dam had been glen le the clerk of the money order department in Edinburgh, obi naked eonsiderably lower than the clerks that bad bees passed over, sad who ha I been decided by Lord Linda@ as au Improver person to be promoted out of his tarn. Mr. HAY [MR said it wee undoubtedly true that the gentleman appointed to the vacant situation in th e mone y order office had been placed over the head of another party. The Postmaster - Generale wandered that, in appointing - to the bead of a department, he was bound to look out for the person most competent to discharge the dusty. (Hear, bear.) He had, therefore, passed by, as he was Jas. tided in doing, the principle of rotation, and had ✓oluted the person who. on all grounds, from hie meritorious services and efficiency, was moat entitled Mt ell the office. He was not aware of say spplieation being sada to the clerks, rolling upon them to nuke say emit statement as the hon. and learned gentleman had rebored to. He believed the report to be totally unfounded. Thaw was no objection on the part of the Post-office to lay Were the house the memorials and correspondence referred 1%1 bat unless it was intended to make that hen, a wort of appeal with respect to the appointments Is all public depirtments. be did not see the wisdom of re senting those memorials. If the hon. and learned gentle man thought pew, he might move for their production ; and it would then be his (Mr. Hayter's) duty to take the opinion of the house on the subject. Mr. ANS IE7 asked if the principle of seniority and rotation had cot, down to the prevent time, regulated pro- motions of ettiv kind? 'Nieto, d.* Mr. HATTER said he (mold most di , tinctly state that that had not berm the practice. Mr. ANSTEY gave notion that, on Tnursday, lie should more fee the preductsoa of the memorials he had re ferred to. SECURITY FOR ADVANCES (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. H. HERBERT asked when this ball would be pro ceeded with, and whether it was intended to make it applicable to other parties beyond those originally con. templated The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he you'd answer the last pan of the question first. Certain clauses had been prepared, with a view of enendirg the bill further than was originally intended, with the view of meeting the wick's of Irish proprietors. A eorreepnnder.ce also took plane with those who were lik-ly to be beat acquainted with the subject, the result of which was that he dial not think those clauses could be safely proceeded with or carried into effect. That was the cause of the delay in proceeding with the bill; hut it wee now ti.e intention of the government to go 011 with it meson as pigeible. THE NEW HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. Mi.lliNl3;tid that he had rreehtd a letter from Mr Griuell,the contractor for the new boasts of p aliment, stating that it was di sirable the house should decide as soon as possible whether an♦ and what alterations w , re necessory in the new Rosso of Commons, ss an early decision on this point would prevent both future delay and expense. He therefore wished to know whither there would be any objec•ion that to-morrow's sitting should talee place in the new boast,.

IRISH POOR LAWS. Yr. P. FRENCirnme — i;;;;;e--- That it is the °Oneself tide limas that no perm pent gyetern br the relief of the lame in Ireland cue be canoes out salely or beneficially to reerimee or ratepeyers without a return to the principle of the original pyre low of 103*, by the strict applicaron of in-door relief to all close of paupers; that the system of appointment of ece-froardians with unconstitutional powers of talation has pro•ed most °Weeks able, and should be forthwith abolished; that the present mem of ado inote.ition of the poor law lakefront Is anneceasanly extravagant, onset d to the diminished reoperate*/ the country, and trade sea. eiderably to the dem malimationot the people; thee It Is unjust to throw on one species of property, and that the most searing, the mire solitaire of the poor in licLand. He took it that the object of the poor laws, as well as theirin troduction, was to ameliorate the condition of the Irish poor. It was the object of the government that the' amelioration should be earned into effect by means of the slimmers of Inland, and that no further claims should be made on Eng lish bounty by Irish inondiceney. (H•ar, hear.) Bet the Irish Poor-law Bill, notwithstanding, had been a total failure. (Hthr, hear) He (Mr. French) had opposed the present Poor-law Bill ae certain to be useless in ordinary years and iseurn-lent is years of pressure amongst the poor. (Hear, beer.) He thought the question was now deserving of the consideration of the home, beaus. of its ens/nitride. The measure was introduced on the assurance of government that the expenditure under it would not exceed 280,0001. per year ; yet in the last year the ex pen& ore amounted to something over 2,176,0001. (Hear.) The rate of bursar, in the poor law charges was almost incredible. It might be said that the chief cause of the increase was the potato famine. Ee denied that that was the fact. Independently of the parliamentary loa n o f 8,000,0001., about 1,000,0001. was subscribed towards the support of the poor at the period of the famine ; and there fore it could not be contended that the increase was attri butable to that coupe. He did not wish to overturn the present poor law system, but simply to render it prectimble and beneficial. As regarded his resolution respecting in-door relief, he would rest his case on the or inions of those who were responsible for the administration of the law. Why should a system which those parties admitted bad swamped the industrious claws, and which would have bore rejected in 1838, be now carried out in Ireland 1 The Archbishop of Dublin had formerly declared that it out- lour relief were administered the whole of Ireland would be reduced to a state of pauperism, and be believed that thatprediction was is a fair way for realisation. Mr, oulatone mid that without a severe workhouse test be knew not how tr., land of Ireland was to support the poor, and de clared it to be his opinion that if the barrier were once bract • down a /hod of pauperism would overwhelm the country. The hon. gentleman concluded by propoolner the reolutions. Lord NAAS, in seconding the motion of the boo. mem ber for Roaeommon, said that he could not by any remarks of his add much to the weight of the arguments which had bees adduced in favour of these resolutions. Ile, however, should express his conviction tkat the present state of the working of the poor law in !felted the hon. mem ber for Roscommon in the course which he was taking. He thought that the house must consider that there must be some modification of the present lase, unless they wished to show the people of Ireland who wished for such an alteration that they were desirous of throwing the lanes of Ireland out of cultivation, and thus perpetuating the misery and destPution of the people. (Hear. ) Bir W. SOMERVILLE said that it was quite impcsaible to deny the importance of the motion which had been brought forward by the hon. inesaher for Roscommon • but if the subject to which he bad called tl s attention of the house was as important one, it was not a subject to which that house had shown itself in any way indiffertnt—(hear)— because i woul-1 be in he recollection of the bouts that during last session a committee was appointed, which conducted its labours for sever! months, and that there was not a single one of the resolutions which formed the subject of the bon. member's motion which did not receive the most smote coosideration bears that committee ; and not only lid they receive the moat ample consideration before that committee, bat when a bill was introduced in•ci that house eatbAying those very monitions, them stahjeets were a-sin fu ly tle• bated, and the decision of the house sae pronounced upon them. It was not his intention to follow Lie hon. fnend through the history of the Eagli.h poor law; he would more partieulssly confine himself to the rew'utions which formed the substance of his motion, and the h-n ntleman would permit him to my that the very important question of out-door r. lief ftensed the vrinelpal subject of his resolutions. The hon. member In Lis apt, eh had can didly admitted that he was *Wisely opposed to tau system of poor laws in Ireland, and that be had always been opposed to them. In that instance he seemed to duffer Ir MO the noble lord who mended his motion. In with 'he expense of out-door relief, the bon. radii:len forgot to tell them in what way it was possible to preserve the lives of the people without having recour-e to the adsainirra.,on of nut-door relief.

The decrease on the total expendi- I tyre of the quarter ending 81st Dectiniher, _1849. was 122.0001.; for the quarter ending Much, 1860, Is was 197,0001. The whole increase of expenditure for • menthe airtime Merck, 1860, was 319 4461. The expenses of the poor law, as immured with the corresponding peeled of jut year, were rapidly dintinieting. The sanitary ennaltiest of the workhouses was very much Improved, and the avenge week', cut of Releases's*e wag very mutt redwood. Far the week ending 12th May, 1849, the coat wee la. lid., egg it was may Is. in the serrespending week of 1860. He had no doubt Mat the relief was the mom as it always was. There had been a great dintiautimi of mortality in the workhouses In 1849, it was 11.000. t; and in the conespend ins period of the present year, 6,000. His objection to the re solutions of his hon, friend was that he had terwetten to inform the house in what way lie proposed to pro foe the support of the poor of Ireland, in the aso of any such cala mity again befalliae the country. It was upon that point that he justified the necessity of oat-door relief. A. to the M enus of the unions and the redaction of the sin of the elec. total divisions, he thought it would be Warts wait until they had an opportunity of seeing what result the changes were likely to bring forth. They had every reason to hops, from the prospects he had detailed to the house, from the ing proved spirit which was visible in the adonsistration of the pmr law, that the severity of the crisis was past. Hs hoped the house would support him in retistiog the motion of his hon. friend, and not vote for reeolutions which would have no practical sired. Colonel DUNNB said that the poor law had not fulfilled any one of the objects which It bad in view. The condition of the people of Ireland was infinitely worse than it was before the poor law. It had pro dared the evils It was intended to ears. The third relation he thought was deserving the serious at tention of the house. It referred to the ruinous sad extravagant ezpeass iocarred in Ireland in the adtainis tratlon of the poor law. In the workhouses the establish meat charges (700,0001.) were quite as great as the sums actually expended in food. (Hear, hear.) Until that nuisance was abated, there was no hope for as 'Stint ad ministration of the poor laws is Ireland. (Hear, hear.) The otter grievance which wee touched upon in the nosla lions wee the asides pressure of the rates on a certain de scription of property. The whole busthen of the rate was thr..wn upon the actual landowner, while a:I mortgages and ennui lea escaped. He should vote for all the resolutions. He thought the first resolution was absolutely necessary for the salvation of Ireland, while he guarded himself window say denial of the right of the really poor to relief. The principle of the second resolution had been &twitted on all bands, and upon the other two he bad sot the slightest doubt. . . kV S. CRAW FORD opposed the first rccolution on the ground that any spaces of poor laws which excluded out. door relief would be a mockery and delusion on the people. (Hear, hear.) The other two Fellation. wore not so °Nevi alibi', but the character of the first was sufficient to induce hen to vote against them all. Mr. P. SCROPH opposed the motion. During the opera tion of an excessive erste= of in-door relief thillorkhouses were not half sufficient to receive the pc.ple, and they (lied in thousands atter having been refused admission. In order to render the workhouses a 'efficient test, tee dietcries had been reduced to the stervstion point, until the death. had increaavd from 17 to 40 a week in some of the workhouse.. He opposed any reargetieca which would have the effect of aboli-hiag po n-law relief in Ireland. Sir L. O'BRIEN snought the sc cries told of the sufferings of the Irish poor in Clare and Castlebar were very much exaggerated. Mr. O'PLAHERTY defended the character of the Ito. man catholic presto for integrity, and gale a general went to the resolution..

AFTER the signal rejection of the Bishop of Lox- DON's bill by the House of Lord., it would not be worth while to pursue the discussion it has given, rise to further, were it rot for two statements in the bishop's speech : first, that he meant to persevere, if defeated. in his purpose; secondly , that he propos( d his Episcopal of Jimmy only as 'an imperfect substitute for a Synod. Bishop BLOMPIELD, there fore, intends to become an ecc lesiastical agitator in his old age; and the ultimate object of his agitation is to give, or, as he would say, to restore to the church synodical action. It is thus by degrees that the real design of the episcopacy is disalesed. It may be summed up in two words—more power. The assumption on which more power is sought, is theoretically that the church is independent. Now therein lies the great mistake of Bishop BLOMPIELD and his friends. The church of England is not an independent, but a state church: it has no status, as an established church, save that which the law has given ; and the law has, as a fundamental condition of the existence of this state church, placed the sovereige in supremacy over it. The supremacy of the sove reign is, in its turn, limited and restricted by law ; it cannot be exercised to alter or vary the doctrines, or to take away the property of the church. But it is the foundation of the church of England ; and any attempt to give the church freedom of action irre spective of the sovereign, is to inverse the porition in which the law has placed the sovereign and the church, and on which the church received the pro perty she now enjoys. The consequence of such a change would he, to use Lord LANSDOWNE'S expressive lingusge, most "peril ous." Only conceive a gnat and wellthy, and powerful body like the church, acting in its sphere, supported by two rich universities, in dependently of both QUEEN and parliament ; now regulating and determining doctrine, then interfering with education, now engegi din correcting this her. sy, then occupied in settling that form. Why, such a body, so engaged, and divided whilst so occupied into two great and irreconcileable par:its, would quickly become such • nuisance as to eq ui re summary abatement. And, when abated, where would be the church of England ? A church cannot go through an ordeal of this sort, and come out of it as if nothing had occurred ; it would emer,e with a loss of that laity in which, and not in its wealth, its real greatness consists. To an infallible church, such powers as the Bishop of LoNDON seeks are indispensable ; if she emu)• decide on questions of heresy, and on matters of form, irraspectively of all state control, the delusion of kfal libility is, of course, destroyed. And the v‘ry essence of a voluntary church is that it shall contain complete placers of self-government and of discipline. But the church of England is ither an infallible nor a voluntary church. On the cmtrary, it is the form of pul;lic worship which the state has, de ming it the nearest approach to divine truth and apostolic practice, established in England ; and it it be com plained that the state hes not given the pcwers which an infallible, or a voluntary church pmsesses, the reply is, that by restricting such authority, the state they. by took security for the church of Eng. land's fulfilling the intention of its cstablishm a rt. For example, had the Episcopal Board of Heresy adecceted by Bt-hop BLOMFIKLD been called into existence, it is more than probable that clergymen holdif m er low views of baptismal regeneration would have been declared by it incapable of holding bene fices. But the highest legal tribunal has decided that the state never intended that such views of that doc trine should be fatal to the enjoyment of church bere• dam Here, then, we should have the church de feat irg the very object for which the state called her into legal existence, and for which the state transferred to her the endowments of the papal church. Tr e law has decided that persons of Mr. GORDAII . O opinions are entitled to hold livirgs in the church. Assume, again, that the Board of Heresy had declared these opinions to be contrary to the articles of the church—how would oath a state of things be recon ciled ? Would the state or the church have to give way ? If the former, the church might go on narrow ing the interpretation of her article' until she had driven out of her fold a large, perhane the larger, proportion of bath clergy and laity. In each a case, could the state tolerate the possession of the church's property by the remaining minority ? If the church had to give way, alter deciding authoritatively and dogmatically against such opinions, the spectacle would be exhibited of the church submitting to see heresy taught in its benefices. So that by increasing the power of the church, either the authority of the state and the supremacy of the sovereign will be destroyed ; or the character of the church will be irretrievably damnified. But is it fitting that a church should remain in the bonds of the state? That is a question which it is now too late for the church of England to discuss. Either it must remain in those bonds, if it have to continue as a state church, or it can .nly be released therefrom by ceasing to be a state church. But, on adopting the latter alternative, it mast, of course, resign the temporalities made over to it by the state. For the state, in assigning to the church the property it now enjoys, meant, as legal tribunals have solemnly decided, to place it in what are calied bonds; and the condition of emancipation must, therefore, be the renunciation of the property. This, it will be recollected, was the course taken by the high church party across the Tweed a few years ago. When the state would not relax tho bonds in which the church of Scotland was holden, that parry gave up all connexion with the state, resigned the state's property, and became r. voluntary church ; but not the lees a church because of their voluntary union. And now may be seen in Edinburgh a church in full possession of synodical action, such as the Bishop of LONDON (Lai &rat, s for the church of England. Merely to gain this freedom of action ' that church abandoned th e s t a t e . Wh e the Bishop of LONDON wants, on the one hand, to enjoy all the benefits of state connexion, and, on the other hand, to possess all the power and authority of an infallible or a volunta r y church ; a combination quite incompatible with the principles on which an endowed rational church reposes in ouch a church can exist only here es a compromise, the church resigning to the state some of the freedom it would otherwise enjoy; and the state (riving to the church a position it could not otherwise claim or obtain. Now, hitherto, the state has fulfilled in a most exemplary and generous manner the obligations it contracted with the church ; but hitherto the church has neglected the contract she made with the state, viz., to afford the community ample religious in ' struction ; and now when this neglect can no longer be safely continued, the church begins to complain of the other rendition of her existence, viz., restricted freedom of action. This disturbance of such fundamental questions the Bishop of LONDON will fled, if it be persevered in, a losing game for tho church of England. In its own especial sphere the state has given the Church occu pation, Bishop BLOMPIELO may rely on it, which noels shits faculties, without raising controversies that affect its very existence. MR. CHARLES HANN KENNEDY, Professor of Law at Queen's College, Birmingham, hu lately addressed a Letter to the LORD CHANCELLOR on what ho calls " Circuit Leaps: a ;" and though the combination' or associations, or clubs, thua characterised, are not so formidable an affair as the Solemn Le wife. and Covenant, or so well known as the late Anti-Curn Law League, they appear, if not to be founded upon, at all events to involve in some of their practical re sults, the principles of a very close monopoly. Every English circuit has, oar readers know, • Bar, which atteeds the Quzza's judges, and conduc s the forensic business of the Civil and Criminal Courts at the Assizes. This Bar is composed of such common law barristers u choose to adopt the part;eular circuit; and the motives which sway their selection are, of course, personal connection, abuad anus of haziness on the oiscnit, deficiency of ability, or room for additional competition. Tbese bars neither te em legal corporations nor have my legal status; and possessing neither, they have no legal right of admis sion, expulsion, or of discipline. The "been°e of such legal features has, however, been supplied by social arrangements. Each bar has in the circuit towns, its " mess; " to the social and convivial advantage' of which a formal admission is necessary, as to a club in town, and breaches of its regulations render the offender liable to censure, penalties, and expulsion. Practically, it is indispensable to a barrister going circuit that he be a memb e r o f thi s " B ar Mess ;" for, though you may travel circuit without belonging to it, you will do so u a " pariah i" you will be discounte nanced by your brother barristers; ignored by the judges in their dinner arrangements; restricted to old single-handed briefs, even if the effect of such treatment by your fellows or attornies be not to deprive you of any brief to hold. The importance of belonging to the "Bar Mess" is, therefore, very great; and its practical power very large. As, in Lord BROUGHAM'S style of speech and writing, there are parentheses within the bellies of parentheses, to within assize circuits there are ses sions circuits, which have again their "Meese'," and affect in their smaller orbits similar powers. Ste glens bars are generally composed of the very junior members of the assize bars; it is usual to require ad miesion at the greater mess as a qualification for the smaller one; and, in their turn, it is usual for the assize mess to tcke cognisance of any serious breath of decorum, discipline, or profes-ional etiquette brought before its " grand courts" from a sessions mess. The importance of a circuit bar mess is thus considerably augmented. It is obvious that a barrister having once made choice of any particular circuit, is likely to adhere to it: for it is only by slow degrees that a connexion is formed or briefs obtained ; the few brieflesa half years on one circuit would on its cinange, in all pro bability, have to be repeated on resyt to another ; and as leaders drop off or give up circuit, the juniors of standing and reputation naturally occupy their vacant pima. There are, consequently, strong mo tives for fidelity to a circuit once chosen. And prsc tically, the installers of change of circuit have been PO rare as to have raised a strong professional preju di‘e against any such fickleress. This prejudica is so strong as on, at least, somc circuits, to have led to a rule that barristers of stand ing, on change of circuit, shall rot be permitted to join the liar Vitus of the new circuit ; and, as the coryquences of exclusion theref , om are so serious, it is against this rule on the M.dlat.d Circuit that Mr. KENNIiDY has addressed the Lortir CHANCELLOR. Mr. KENNF.DY is a gentleman of some years stand ing at the bar. He originally went the Home Ci.- cuit ; but, though a man of high Cambridge honour., he attended it, tie frankly states, "without faeces..." lie %‘as lately, it seems, appoin•ed Profesaor of Law at Queen's College, Birmingham, the duties of which office compelied him to 1. ale London, and take up hie residence there. Naturally enough, he then re solved on practising on the Midland Circuit, and b , gan to attend the Fessions of the town. Hit att.ndanco however quickly gives rise tod;sputes and toannoyance. Tnrse, Mr. KENNEDY RIM tt have sought to allay by gaining admission to the C rcuit Mess; and he scc rdingly consulted Mr. iII'MFREY, the Queen's Counsel, who " declared to me," says Mr. KENNEDY, "in private that I outht to be admitted, and pro milea atrenuonsly to support me." On application, however, admission was unanimously refused Mr. KENNEDY. Why, Mr. Iit3IFNEY explains in the following letter : Warwick, Tuesday morn'ag. My dear 84,-1 am sorry to say that the circuit last night determined, by an unanimous resolution, that you could not be permitted enjoin us. Ifnu will see, by what I have sal I. th.t I eon-erred in the opinion thus pronounced. Mr. Whitehurst, the leader, hriugh• before us a resolution of our own, delib-rattly adnpted, by which Mr. Davison, now of that Welsh circuit, but w o pry .sad t change to ours, wee, from his length of standing at the bar. and his having for several yeses been a member of another circuit, held to be inadmissible. Wnen I saw you at Coventry, I was not aware of this case, but it was so exactly in point, that it was impossible for us not to be gov:rned by it. I am, my dear sir, vary truly yours, L. C. IitIIFREY.—C. R. Kennedy, E q. Now, though there were substantial differences be tween Mr. DAVISON'S case thus cited, as famine an irn fraeable precedent, and his own, such as that Mr. KENNEDY bad abandoned London practice, resided permanently in the country, and hid been brought to Bamingham as the law professor of its college, he disclaims any right to set up his own as an excepticnal case; but denounces the system under which such exclusion can occur, and, on general principles, we concur in his view of the question. It is, in the fir.t piece, to be remarked, that to be successful on circuit admissior.s to the bar, Mess is almost indispensable ; barristers may, con sequently, be said to be compelled to join it. But, in the second place, those who already belong to it have a pecuniary interest in excluding men likely to partioipate in circuit business. True, they always admit inexperienced and untried competitors; but here on the Midland Circuit they exclude men of capacity, experience, and reputation. In other words, they take in those of whom they have no fear, and keep out those of whom they have reason to have any apprehension. A physician of the highest eminence may, if he please, leave Saville-row and settle at Gravesend without let or molestation ; a solicitor of the largest practice may shed Lincoln's-inn and re-assume professional life at Margate without the smallest hindrance; but a banister, briefness in one circuit, is not to be permitted to woo fortune on another. This, we think, is unjust to individuals. But it is mere : it is hurtful to the public ; for it limits the field whence professional aid is to be chosen ; it restricts a profession on circuit which is at beet a monopoly elsewhere ; and ouch limitation it accomplishes and effects by means indirect and delu ' sive ; for under the guise of dinner arrangement, the Bar Mess inhibits banisters from practice in parti cular districts. Monopolies by law were bad enough, but they were at least based on the assumption, however false, that the whole community was bene fited by them. But monopolies by social associa tions are quite intolerable; for they spring from mere selfishness and jealousy, unaccompanied by any such delusion, ungarnished by any such pretence. COLLISION AND DESTRUCTION Ole TWO VESSELS.— A collision, involving the loos of at least a dozen lives, and which took place off that part of the coot known as Black balls, has just been reported at Seatiam. Tho Harriet Emma, Mr. Lund* master, belonging to and bound for Wisbeach, left Sunderland barbiur on Wednesday last. She proceeded out to ma as usual, and early in the morn ing of the followieg day the weather thickened to a fog, the wind setting iu rather strong from the N. and N.N.E. She was about wearing off en a starboard tack, when a large schooner, apparently heavily laden, painted black, with the bust of a female for figure-head, was seen beating towards her, and before there was time to wear off they MOO is fearful contact with each other. On the vessels striking, Mr. Lundie, the muter of the Harriet Emma, with his mate and ap prentice, clambered on board the schooner, leaving the two survivors behind in their own ship. It was soon dia. covered that the schooner was rapidly filling, and ere th e y could misfit means apparently o f p reserv i ng t h emselves, she foundered with every soul on bo ar d, b ee own crew and the three, including Mr Lundie o f t h e H arr i et Emma. The two men left on board the latter va ssel met with a more fortunate fate. Finding she was settling down they enee gatically set to work in getting the boat which stood on the deck clear, red having launched her, they got from the wreck just before she lurch e d an d went d own also. After being buffeted about in the open boat some time, they were picked up by the Prince Albert, of Jersey, and landed neer Hartlepool. The number who perished is thought to be about a dozen, and none of the bodis a have been recovered. PUNISHMENT OF DEATH BY BURNINO.—Some of your readers will be surprised to learn that, within the memory of witnesses still alive, a woman was burnt to death, under sentence of the judge of assize, for the murder of her husband. This crime—petty treason—was formerly punished wi.h fire and faggot ; and the rep. al of the law is mentioned by Lord Campbell in a note to his life of one of our recent chancellors, hut 1 have not his work to refer to. The pat to which this woman was bound stood, till recently, in • field adjoining Winchester. She was condemned to be burnt at the stake ; and a marine, hie paramour, and an aceomplice in the murder, was condemned to he hanged. A gentleman lately deceased told me the circumstances minutely. I thick that he had been at the trial, but I know that he was at the execution, and saw the wretched woman fixed to the stake, fire put to the faggots, and her body burnt. But I know two pm na still alive who were present at her ezeoution.—Notes and (Maria. F e rili a;f si 7 , — ;p :b — fi'w«itai i r if i e ii; iiiiicT i iiaTi k iii i na 1448.
