DENISON thanked the seMe lord for Intro dodos this bill, considering that it wee founded on the unanimous report of a committee, of which the hon. gentle sae was • amber, who described this as • very bed bill. So to (tanneries it was an ondeeerved oat nue en the committee, the house, and the government. The weeds of the committee were that the bosom@ of the com mission which was purely of an ecclesiastical character should be operated from the managern.nt of the property lithe essemittete bad intended that those who snagged the property should refer all matters dealt with by them to the ecclesiastical e omission they would have worded their recommendation in a diff manner. The whole 'slue of the b.ll would depend on the moaner is which the committee was constituted, gni in his opinion the ultimaos decision in all these questions should remain in the large body who Octal be responsible. The difference between him and his hon. friend was, as to whether the paid commission which was to have the ma easement of the property was to be an srarieutive committee or a body merely beefing the power of making recommends- tions for the e ontnimion to act upon as they pleased. He considered that if this last should be the decision of the house the object of appointing such a committee would be lost, sad there would be no responsibility. Lord J. RUSSELL conceived that nn objections had bees ' advanced sgeinst the second reading of this bill, but that all the objections which had been stated were merely matters for consideration is committee. His hon. friend (Mr. Dent son) said that the goverement had mistaken the object and intentions of the "elect commutes—but he could scarcely conceive diet it could have been tie intention of that eon mates that the proposed committee eh mid hive a a- pants authority from the conmission. With re.pect to the main object the comm ttee had in view, he conceived the bill as it stood would accomplish that In a way at least as effectively as that his hon. friend proposed, for this being a limited committee to manage the estates of the commiesion, and having that business always betore them, there could be no doubt that in 99 cues out of 100 their opinion would away the commission, who would take the report of the committee as conclusive, ex opt in eases which inlet:Ted matters of principle, wh oa it was proper that the whole board should be consulted. The objection of the hon. member for Cocker mouth, who had otjected to the manner in which the bill was framed, was not is his opinion of such import. mace or gravity as the hon. gentleman seemed to suppose. He suppeeed that the commiesionen wished to retain the whole power to themselves, by proposing that only two commissionm should be paid, but as he (Lord J. Russell) read the bill, it was simply this—they said there is not busker for sore than one paid commissioner, but if the government think fit to have two, we shall not object; but there is no reason for haver, a second paid COlN miaow:ter, as there will not be business to employ the other commissioner. That was a practical point to which they had turned their attention, but be did not think the bon. gentlemen was entitled to build upon that se large and im mean. • emperstruerore as he hail done The hon. gentleman's objection was one which might wel be considered in com mittee, when it might be properly decided 'whether there should be two paid commissioners—the OOMMIII•011 consist lag of three in all—or whether there should be only two, me of whom to be paid. At all events, this was not • point fatal to the bill, sad he was sure the Archbishop of Canterbury never thought that such a consequence could be deduoed trim their opinion. He would not go farther late the diamosion of the qoestion of the second reading of the bill, Mammoth se no substantial objection had bees offered to it. He could not subscribe to the character whieb the hon. member for Cotkermouth had given of the bishops., who, so tar as ha (Lord J. Ronal!) had any know ledge of them, were a pima ' learned, courteous, and hos pitable body of man —( hear , hear)—and such, he believed, ' was the 4:tweeter they enjoyed in the country. (Hear, hear.) It was true he bad been diaappointed in not bevies their support is some matters in which they differed from him; aad when the bill of 1840 went up to the llonee of ' Lords, in their opposing the then Archbishop of Canterbury, and making the onnaimice so 011111Mlit that it would not moth; but as to the Ismael character of the body, he be listed it to he as be had described it. Hear, hear.) Mr. B. OSBORNB mid that the dogma that the boast had so Polarisation over the entimiasiscal revenue', was • tale for the visas. H. retorted upon the member for Cambridge the taunts he bad thrown against Mr. Horseman, and snood that no reform would have bee& effected is or by the episcopal body bet for the active pressers exerted by laymen outside. Sir R. INOLIS kept up the diiettssion epos personal topic', with a defence of Kr. Goulbern, and then diverged into the questim of 'hunk property, denying that the clergy were stipendiary servants whom tillarlet were to be allotted by parbanswat The teensues of the see of London had appertained to that episcopate ante the year 680. The dis like shown by some member' to the char* he likened to hydrophobia, and after oomplaining of the unseemly inter ruptions which be said embarrassed the flow of his 'detente, the hon. baronet went on to yin-flute the proceedings of the Ecclesiastical Commission and the right of the bishops to sit therein. Sir B.

AA. Ma Alksnass. N. N.. LONDON, TUESDAY, APRIL 30. THE CHANCELLOR of the Excanctuks., It will be seen, introduced last night his plan for preventing frauds in savings bank., and rendering these almost na tional investments more secure. This he proposed to effect, first, by making it pensl for any party to receive or pay deposits but the treasurer or his clerk ; and, secondly, by placing the appointment of the treasurer in the ban& of the Commissioners of the National Debt. Whilst the treasurer of the savings hank is this to be a government nominee, the auditor of the ac counts of the bank is to be nominated by the trustees, I I government having the power to send an inspector for the same purpose, when the ught requisite. We fear that considerable difficielties will be found in the way of this plan to combine local zeal with central control. An auditor appoints d by government to examine the accounts at certain times, would not inter fere so mach with the local nature of the saving' banks. But it is to be feared, that the transference of the chief management to a government approved treasurer, will tempt the men of business of the neighbourhood to wsah their hands of the concern. Government 1. to elect as treasurer, without a salary, any banker who will undertake the task gratuitously. We fear that this will never be the case; and that;governasent, or the Commissionersof the National Debt, will, is most instances, have to nominate a treasurer with a salary, which will considerably interfere with the economy of the savings banks. The CttozcEntott of the EXCIIEQUER proposed also to limit to 1001. the 'mount of deposit on which interest would be paid ; as well as to reduce the rates of interest paid by government from 31. 3s. to 31., and that paid by tue banks to depositors from 21. 18i. 41. to 21. 15s. The Times, in discussing the question, asks since savings back, were of quite recent origin, having only commenced with this century, what did the humble dosses do with their savings in preceding centuries? The answer is, that in past centuries the land was the great investment—the land that was then open to small proprietors and holders, but which have since been closed except to the large capitalist Of speculator. For small revenues, indeed, the land ' is the only profitable investment, and, we may add, the natural one. And a country which denies this to its frugal poor is bound at least that their moneyed investments be as retire as land, and as fructifying u ingenuity can make them. Tun three modes of attacking and overturning a government are at present in practice in the three constitutional countries. In England the protection ists and Peelites make their attack in parliament. In Paris, opposition mimes the form of a combat in the streets. In Madrid the scene of action is the back stairs and private apartments of the palace. NARVATZ, indeed, has been compelled to draw his sword, and skirmish in the three afferent fields. He has had to struggle with his ices in the Cortes, to fight them in the streets, and every now and then he has a wrest ling_ match with those in the palace. Had Loris PIIILIPPE taken years to consider what kind of a gift he could make to Spain, best calculated to distract its councils, discredit its court, neutralize its power, and render government impossible, he could not have hit upon one so calculated to produce all those effects, as the forcing . her . present Consort upon the Clasen. Fur a prime-minister to make use of this singular iLdividusl, and keep him in a dignified and quiet course ' ought to be registered as a thirteenth labour of Hee euLzs. For the last months this task has been wonderfully performed. The PRINCE and the Quests have lived on the most decorous and amiable terms, approaching the period of that amouthement which is hoped to give an heir to the throne. Bet the councillors around the PRINCE perceive that this is the smith of his power, and that up to the aceouchement of the QUEEN, It would be dangerous and impossible to affront him, since be has nothing to do but to run away, absent himself from the birth, and give the sup port of his name to the first malignant story invented, in order to shake the very mansion and feta» peace of the kingdom. It is to be feared that there are higher and more powerful agents at work to produce this result, than the were personal friends or flatterers of the Pence*. The same inflames which married him, in order to render his marriage null, cannot see their labours lost without an effort. King Consort was therefore urged to insist that he should hold the reins of power, and nominate • ministry of his choice, thus annihilating the influ ence of the Queen Mother and of General NaavaEz. As it was replied by ISABELLA, that the rul: of NAIVAEZ, however rude and unpalatable, was still indispensable at such a moment, amidst so many factions and intrigues, the King declared he would quit the court. This is his usual threat, which indeed he has more than once pot in execution. His doing so now, however, would be of more than usual danger and significance. The King made his arrange ments and gave his orders to depart next morning for Aranjurx. A cabinet council summoned in the even ing decided that there was bat one mode of over coming his perverseness, which wee simply to pat a guard on the door of his apartments, and place his Royal Highness under arrest. We doubt, if any person, eau NAIVAEZ, could have bad *mirage to do these strange things; and we doubt, if there be any country, save Spain, in which they are possible. In Ramis, for example, sod ehewhere, guards might be put on a mad prince, but it would infallibly end in their strangling or otherwise dispatching him. In Spain, however, the arrest of the King for a day has ended by a reconciliation be tween their majesties, and the promise of Don Faancrsco to be a better boy, and a more obedient husband for the future. If there be any thing disgraceful or regrettable in all this, we most reoullect that it is not the kelt of either the Queen, or of NA lI VA LE, or of the constitutional system, but chiefly of the cunning and selfish policy of LOl7lB-PIIILIPPE. The obvious remedy for such a state of things would be a truly constitutional ministry, supported by the Cortes and by public opinion, and represeuted at court by a chief, at once dexterous, firm, and able. For it is self-evident that a merely oratorical and parliamentary chief, even of flrst-rate ability, like OLOZAGA, Could never be able to astand with the tricks, the covert and cunning hostility of the palace and its population. A man of his hands, and a man to fear, can alone strike terror and com mand respect with that incorrigible Servidtinabre. The reconciliation between the government of Ma drid and that of Downing-street, we understood, ap proaches a satisfactory solution. Was it in cow queue of some order or signification from the British glit Court. The Qum aced Prince Albert took a shiest in an °Pm ICCAd gro s7 yesterday.

Hope, Esq., M.P. : Lndon.house, March 11. dear Mr. Hope,—My knowledge of year devoted and cow/nest attachment to the ebarch of your baptises, and the assurance which yon have given me of your willingness to be guided ,by my eouaeib at the present crisis, seem to impose upon me the duty of repeating la • more cossetted form aad with some additional remarks, the considerations whigh I waggested to you in conversation on Saturday last. Yea them stated to me how greatly you were distressed at the recent judgment of the Judicial Committee of Privy Coaseil in Mr. Gorham's ow, and you expressed your op• prehension that some excellent men might be driven by that decision to quit, if not the communion of our church, yet the offices which they hold in it. I remarked, la answer to your statement, that I could readily understand the uneasiness which you, in common with many others, felt at the poeitios in which the church appeared to be pissed by that judgment, but that I thought it to be your plain and unmistakeable duty tot to desert the church at such a moment, when she was most is need of your support and assistance, but to remits firm in your al legiance to her, and to use your best end to remove existing anomalies and defects. this appears to me very clearly to be the line of conduct which you ought to pursue. II a vessel is which you were embarked should spring a leak, y o u would surely do your beet to stop the leak before you thought of abandoning the ship and leaving it to the mercy of the winds and waves. I would deaire you to consider in what respect the recent judgment hes so altered the character of our church as to justify any of her members in severing their connexion with her. That judgment may be erroneous, may be a wrong in terpretation of t►e church's mini ; but it is the interprets• lion adopted by a few fallible men, not by any body author ised by the church to settle any point of doctrine ; nor can it have the effect of changing any of the church's doctrines. That of baptismal r. generation stands in her Articles and Liturgy as it raid bikini. That is not denied, nor eves ques tioned, by the judgment, the purport of which is that to them who admit the church's doctrine of baptismal grace a greater latitude of explanation is permitted than you or I think right. But this, atter all, is only the opinion of a c' urtof law, not the decision of the church itself is convoca tion. I hold that until the church's articles and formularies we altered by the authority of convocation, or of some synod equivalent to convocation, her character as a teacher of troth remains unchanged. I cannot regard say sentence of an ecelethistiail court as finally settling a question of doctrine; that can only be done by &synodical decree; end even then judges may err in their interpretation of that decree, and yet the decree itself will hold good, and in anothir appeal respecting the very same point of doctrine another court might give a different judgment. I think, therefore, that nothing short of a formal act of the church itself, repudiating .what it has hitherto as serted as truth can warrant a man in quitting her com munion. Went we really want ie a court of appeal so eonstituted that the members of our church eau place reasonable cnis• &Ince in its decisions ; but it must still be bleu, in mind that any each court will be liable to erron in judgment, and that it belongs to the office of a judge, not to make laws, bat to expound them to the beet of his ability. Again, then, I say tint whet the convocation shell by a solemn act reject the doctrine of baptismal regeneration, it will be time enough to think of quitting the church's pale; but till that shall happen (which H forfend) to nave her would be an act of schism. I will add one other observation. Every member of our church who is not seeking a prettxt for quitting her corn munion must desire to remove whatever blemishes and im pertections than may be in her constitution. But the way to do this is not to abando n h er , en d so to tender amend. meat leas practicable and pnbable by weakening her re gowns and diminishing the number of her true friends, bat to abide finely by her, to be " watchful and strengthen the things which remain that an ready to die." You are at liberty to sheer this letter to any penes who is interested in this most important question. B-tieve me, my dear hie. Hops, with the truest regard *ad mama, yours most faithfully, A. J. Bernfeld Hope, Esq.,ll.P. C. J. LONDON. ART UNION OF LONDON. The annual meeting of this association took place to-day, in Drury-lane Theatre, for the purpose of receiving the report of the council and distributing the prises awarded to subscribers, the Duke of Cambridge in the chair. Mr. GOD WIN, honorary secretary, read the report of the society's proceedings during the past year, from which it append that the total mum appropriated to the fetiches' and production of works of art, includiog the cost of the en gravings sad outlines, was 8,3261. de. 31. It was proposed Vat a sate of 4,2801. (appropriated to the purchase of works of art by the prig holders) should be thus allotted .-20 works of 141. sank, 16 of 151.,14 of 201.,12 of 261., 12 of 401, 10 of 601.. 6 of 601.,6 of 704, 6 of 801., 3 of 1001., 2 of 1601., 2 of 2001. To thew the tea nei I proposed to add various seta of proof eagravings in portfolios. The council drew attention to the fact, that • desire to support art-unions had been awskesed i. Aneerice. There were now bier associations of this kind is that country. One, the American Art Union, established ' in New York la 1838, had this year 18,000 subscribers, eon ' tribunes 60,000 dollars. It appeared that engravings were in progress frees " Richud Cour de Leon pardoning Dee med de Gourdon," after Mr. Cross, and " The Viper," after Mr. F. Goodall. The council continued to keep In view the didaterested purpose for which this association was formed, vii., to dittos far and wide throughout the *slim a 1.0.• of art. FeedollB to the adoption of the report, Mr. HMO, in. (Aired whether the council weld nets) arrange their pro ceedings as to allot prises to a higher amount than 2001. Mr. GODWIN replied that themes of 2001. had been Axed as the highest prise, after due deliberation, and it would now be exceedingly inoonvenient to make any alteratiou in the amount. The °tuned had no other object in view than that of drawing art and satisfying the subscribers. The report was tiara adeptei. Thoth, having been voted to the council and to the houvrary secretaries, the business of awarding the prizes was proceeded with in the usual course.

FRANCE. PARIS. Monau, 7 P.M. All yesterday the electioa went forward with the utmost quiet and order. A tarbulsat fellow, whom the opponties inspected to be a useacherd, was ar rested the Place du Pantheon for holding a sedi tious harangue. M. Cartier has postpaid epos several hundreds of parses., whom he accuses of vagrancy, and them eff into the °wintry. The papers ara istremphstis addressee to the dilatory ; who am threatened with the rosput of their names being posted app at the amities If .they don't make haste and vote. The most decided of the moderate papers mys thatualssesosisty be protected with avotetWtet to-day perhaps it will have to be protected a few days hems with a musket. Tao war cry of the Knights is Polimesovereiguty or Liberty It seems that Leclerc's bead clerk is a nephew of Culler, a circumstance not lost sight of by the socialist pope's. Great disputes arise about the results of the military elections : it turns oat, however, that the upshot of the military polling at Orleans was correctly reported in the de mocratic papers. Now the votes of the garrison of St. Omer are disputed : the numbers of the democrats are, Sae, 18; Leclerc, 3: those of the moderates, Leclerc, 68; Sue, 4. It is as yet impossible to obtain any clue as to which side the election is tending. Meanwhile the military votes, according to the list published is the Press, are decidedly democratic. Up to the present moment the only results known at the National Assembly with regard to the election concern the votes of the army at Paris and cf the section of the Assembly. These are: Army votes for Eugene Sue, 6,600; for Leclerc, 6,600. In the section of the Assembly there were 696 votes (ex cluding the representatives who voted) for Leclerc, sad 273 for Eugene Sue. At the Invalides Sue polled 660, Leclerc about double. The great number of cards which remained this morning in the moiries of the several arrondissements proves that, notwithstanding the eager stretch of ex pectation and intense anxiety of the extreme parties, • considerable mass remain in the middle, who are neutral and apathetic. It seems very improbable that the sum of votes polled will be so considerable as on the 10th of March and yet even then a fourth of the electors abstained. All sorts of stimulants, in the shape of addresses and agents, were applied to drive lazy and indifferent voters to the poll. As there are 280 electoral colleges in and about Paris, the journey which a citizen has to make in order to comply with his electoral duty is facilitated as much as possible. But the crowd at the mcurie is consi derably greater than at the college. liere the elector has to establish his identity with the person he repre sents, whose name is hunted up in the register. All this takes time, and the municipal querie s a re no t inviting : in fact, iitequires some energy to go through the process of getting a card. At the college the card is shown, and the ticket put into the ballot-box with out trouble. Some of the electioneering devices resorted to by the moderate party are very like the worst which that par . y imputes to its adversa ries. Thus I noticed to-day a flaming red placard, addressing itself visibly to the democratic eye, and insidiously preferrirg the title of Leclerc as a democratic candidate to that of Eugene Sue, who is described uan effeminate voluptuary. Tule is addressed to workmen and signed by a workman. The pavement is strewn with tickets bearing the names of both candidates. At every street-corner touters attack you with these bulletins. You cannot open a fresh newspaper, bat out Hies a shower of little squares of paper, inscrib.d with the name of its champion. In the sitting of the Legislative Assembly to-day business commenced with the adoption of the bill oar savings banks. Teen the debate was resumed on the budget of war. General Lamorcire repeated the ar guments which he had used on Saturday against the creation of a new battalion of " gendarmerie mobile," in the way of an amendment to the budget ; and pro to make a special law necessary for this cbjtct. he Assembly passed to the order cf the day. Cnap ter 7, on recruitment and reserve, and chapter 8, relative' to the general expenses of military jurisdiction, were adopted. On chapter 9, relating to the pay of the infantry (115 millions), M. Savatier-Laroche proposed a reduction of ore hundred millions, with a • .correeponding dimin u ti on o f th e e ff ect i ve troops . This proposition was rejected by a large majority. M. Bouvet proposed a reduction of 24 millions, cor responding to the dismissal to their homes cf the class of 1843. This motion, having been opposed by Ge neral d'Hautpoel, Minister of War, wan rejected. The sitting of the Chamber broke up at half-past six, without any result of importance. I hear that the quarrel with the Spanish govern ment is at last definitively settled. Lord Palmers:on signed the note accepting the satisfaction offered by the cabinet of Madrid on Thursday last, and on Sa turday the courier of the Belgian government arrived from London, be way of Brussels, in Paris. He will, barring accidents, tea' h Madrid oa Wednesday, and probably the two notes will be published in the Gaceta de Madrid of Thursday, the 2nd of May. I understand that the English government will wait for a copy of the Madrid Gazette, be fore the appointment of the British envoy to the court of Spam, and his accompanying secretary and attaches, is made officially known to the public. 'lluse appointments may be therefore expected to appear in the London Gazette of May 10, or thereabouts. Mean- 1 while, who the successor to Sir H. Bulwer is to be seems as yet by no melee decided, although, as you know, public report has more than once given the appoint ment to Lord Howden. There are two other candidate e, I hear, one of whom possesses the title of a close rela tionship to the former English minister at Madrid. I mean Lord Cowley, Sir H. Bulwer's brother-in-law. The other candidate is Sir Hamilton Seymour, British minister at Lisbon. The Duke of Sotomayor, Spanish ambassador at Paris, must have been considerably mortified at the unimportant put which has been attributed to him throughout this negotiation. I un derstand that his excellency was not in the least consulted on the notes, and they passed through Paris with thd Belgian courier on the way to Brussels, after one of them had been signed by Pidal, apparently without his knowledge, although the fact was communicated to him subse quently by his own government. Having been the principal agent in the expulsion of Sir H. Bolwer, the Duke of Sotomayor no doubt fancied that he ought to have figured more prominently in the reconciliation. I hear that the Spanish minister in London is more likely to be Mimicries than Isturitz. M. de Falloux, ex-Minister of Worship, has arrived at Lyons from Italy. A letter of the 22nd, from Cannes, says that Lord Brougham has latterly astonished the natives by pleading his own muse in French in some trial before the tribunal of Grease, chef lieu of the arrondissement. For the department of the Saone and Loire the pro portion is equally in favour of the democratic list. The. Prince de Beauvesu, former Peer of France, has been elected by a great majority a member of the Council-General of the department of the Suttee. The Presse publishes the result of a consultation of M. Langlais, representative and advocate on the ques tion of Carlier'e seizure of the opposition papers. The papers interdicted from sale are the Charirari3Oridit, Democratie Pacffique. Eatafette, Ecinsment, National, Press, Slick, Pins du Peuple. SPAIN.

A letter from Berne of the 25th says : The aegits tioe which has long prevailed in the canton of Berne with regard to the integral elections hes new reached its height. It is fortunate for both parties that the important day (stlafty) approaches. The result, under any circnatstanom, may be readily fore seen. The future government will find in the new Grand Council an opposition which will render its task of governing a very difficult one; the liberals will number from 90 to 100. There will be then lawn presented to the Grand Council a petition, with 8,000 signatures, demabdieg the r ev i s i on o f the eon stitution, and agitation will then recommence, the ground of it being only changed." GERMANY. PRUSSIA. BIIFTIRT, Aran, 26. The proceedings of the Stearntutus commenced at 10 o'clock. MM. Lepel, C.erlowitz, Liebe, aed Redo wits, represented the government The report of the commit'ee of justice was brought up. The chief question discussed in that document is, whether the proposed amendments to the project of law relating to the High Court of the Union, are to be discussed as conditions of the acceptation of the whole law, or merely as recommendations to the governments ; and further, whether the law on the Hi g h C ourt i s t o b e considered as an organic portion of the constitu tion. They recommend the acceptance of the law an a whole; the communisation of amendments to the government, with the explanation that in so far as the resolutions agreed upon by the two houses may not receive the sanction of the governments, the originally proposed clauses of the bill shall stand. They fur ther recommend that this b . ll be not regarded as an orgario law; that the same conditions shall apply to the bills to be introduced on high treason, and the discussions thereon; and, lastly, that the bill just passed, regulating the proceedings of the High Court, be taken out of the category of organic laws. Camphan.en said it appeared to him that this was merely a question of a special law of the union, and by no means affecting its existence or condition. Should the alterations of the law go up in any other character than that of a decisive resolution, the hotels would sink from a legislative to a deliberative body. Birnbaum contended that should the propo sals of the committee not ba accepted, the govern ments would be by no means bound to the letter of the original project The first and second clauses were accepted, the re =lining are to be discussed at a later period. Tile discussion of the report of the canstittation committee on the diverging resolutions of the two 'houses. The committee recommend the acaeleance of the resolutions agreed upon at the confirence of both committees. Team were given in our yester day's report. The committee of the Volkshaus object to the amendment to clause 184, which leaves to imperial legislation the determination ci the princi ples on which the representation of individual German states shall be settled. The committee of the Staattnhans recommend the same. This is the single point in which the reports disagree. Section 101, giving to' the Volkshans the right of ultimate decision on the budget in cases where an agreement of both houses should be found impossible, raised some discus,ion. Von Patow said the object of the proposal was not to offer up the rights of the house to propitiate the Volkshaus, but to strengthen the position of the Reichs•Vorstand. For intratee, without this amendment, should a resolution of the Volkshaus be rejected by the Staatenhaus on account of the scantiness of the note, the whole budget would be considered u not framed, and tEe Reichs-Vorstruad would be left without financial resources, at least for some time. On a div:sion the recommendation of the committee was adopted, the votes numbering .50 to 33. The re mainder of the recommendation of the committee was t hen aocep'ed. The discussion on the law of treason then came on. To sections 5-8, relating to the constitution of juries on trials for treason, the committee proposed an amendment, requiring the selection of jurymen by lot from the members of the assembly. Brandis declared himself opposed to the connecting of the functions of jurymen with the office of a deputy. Birnbaum supported the pro position. If they could not tolerate political opinions in jurymen, they would be com pelled to forego the advantages of trial by jory alto gether. The people would feel confidence in entrust ing the support of its rights and the vindication of the law and society to those whom they had elected to defend its political rights. The amendment, as well as the remainder of the committee's resolutions, was then accepted. The house passed the usual resolution reservirg the original clauses in case of rektion of the amendment by the government ; and then adjourned at 3 o'clock. The Volkshatue met at 10, and after despatching formal business proceeded with the blll on the con stitution of the high court. CJrnmiseary Lepel re lated the difficulties which had been encountered in the committees of both houses united for the conside ration of this subject. The Volkehaus had passed re solutions making the office cf judge iecimpatible with any other public function. Tee Staatenhaus had resolved to pass its amendments, net as conditions of its acceptance of the law, but as propositions made by that body. Should this house not take the same course the task of completing the law would be ren dered very difficult. Vincke expressed great satisfaction at the 'rank. nese with which the government had accepted the en bloc passage of the constitution which it had for merly opposed. In order that they might enter upon a normal parliamentary course, nothing more than an immediate installation of the executive of the union would be necessary. He saw, however, no gr:und for desiring the hasty termination of the present par liament. They wished the constitution to be com pleted ea early as possible, but before votiog they must know what legislative validity would attach to their decision. Von Gerlach said if merchants were to decide matters of trade and manufacturers technical questions there was nothing unreasonable in asking that the princes of Gennany should be permitted to decide questions arising out of their own affairs. Now, however, it appeared that the half of the judges were to be appointed by the parliament. Could any one doubt that these elections would be made in the spirit of party ? Tne court wu to publish its decisions, which were forthwith to have the fierce of law. Those would be a fine illustration of revolutionary character, meanwhile where would be the Bundestaat, a here the Erfurt parliament ? Stahl then proposed his amendment, giving the nomination of half the judges to the Iteiche-Vortl ind, and of the remainder to the College of Princes. The speech in which he supported this project was nearly a repetition of Gerlach's. The amendment was lost ; the votes standing 137 to 67. Section 17 concerns the nomination of the adminhe trators of the realm by the lteichs-Vortland. I' gives the right of temporary nominations to the Minis•er of Justice. The committee pro po se t , l give this right to the high court. Commissary Lepel besought the house not to pus a vote of mistrust in the future minister by anticipation ; but the amendment was adopted. The remaining recommendations of the committee to the end of the report were then adopted. Towards the close of the sitting a communication from the President of the Staatenhaus was read, in forming the chamber of its acquieec. nee in the amendments proposed to the too homy by the joint committee. President Simeon thee proposed to this house to declare the agreement of the two chambers without reference to a committee. 'fhe house then ad journed. The law on the regulation of pror ediuge of the High Court in disputed cases comes on for discus sion to-morrow. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Aran, 24.
