It is absolutely inevitable ; and the fact is universally admitted—by some with joy and exultation, by others with profound escrow mid alarm. It is only a question of time, or perhaps of opportsaity.

L 'ad cheers) While the education of the rest of Europe is advancing with suck rapid stride', sad giving new life to the productive activities of the continental state., it seems ekar to me that it England dots not educate ahead of them she must inevitably lose her present supremacy among nomi nees. Take eke English race an in all—in physical qualities, in courage, endurance, industry, skill, and enterprise, in natural intelligence and moral qualities—they are. perhaps, as tint rue of men upon the earth. But to bring out these pewees the Englishman most be educated—he must be traintd--otherwise his true c.deraeter cannot be properly developed.

(Loud cheers.) Dr. Smiles concluded amidst reiterated plaudits by ( reposing the follow lag resolution: " That a lane amount of the misery, vice, and crime which exists is England, is the result of ignorance ' which is fruitful also in other gre e t evil s — soc i a l , political, and moral ; and that the main cause of such ignorance is to be found to the defective provision for ply.:lar icetructiou,which the prevent government plan of education and the voluntary activities of society are inanc)uate to supply." Mr. JAMES HARMS, rate collector, seconded the rem- lotion, which was then put from me chair, and carried with only four or five hands held up aga i nst i t . The ether resolutions carried were as follow: " That any measure of popular education, to be efficient, and embrace the entire of the uneducated classes, must be based upon a system of public schools, supported by local I rates managed by local b..aros or committees specially elected by the ratepayers for that purpose, and that such local boards or committees be empowered to carry out their plans by the provisions of an act of parliament." " That in consequence of the prevailing diversities of re- Bilious opinion in this country, and the great difficulties of devising a piano( public education which shall be acceptable to all sect, end classes among the prof le, it is neceoary that any measure for this purpose shell be entirel tree trusa sec- • tartan and denomication e l peculiarities, hsv lsg for its main I object the secular instruction of the children attending the schools, but leaving sufficient time for tbeir religious incrue• ties by parents and relicious teachets." MEETLNG AT DERBY.-SECULAR EDUCA TION. - - - On Friday evening, pnranant to public notice, a muting wu co eeeee d ishi Town Hall, Derby, to pro mote • oationEl sync:not 'ocular and moral education, J. ha Mow, A.derman of too b.:rouga, and • dissenter, is the chair. The Ray. W. BAINES, baptist minist,r of Nottingham, the eloquent advocate of popular idgeotion, mos invited to take penis the proosociogs, and he 4.ned the discussion by proposing the first resolution. He said—. Atter takioa into amount all the modes of educates we have, including San day schools, we shall yet find there remains, after all, a vast mass of thechildren of thiseountry imiwtrucled or untaught. There are about half • millon children in England and Wales who possess no atuatioa whatever. Awarding to the showing of Mr. Baines, of bads. only 1 in ',St in this country received any education, and pro'ably it was not more than 1 in 13 Si that, tweiteranoing all the glorious achavinneats of voluntaryism—notwithstanding the efforts made by the church of late yews—there re. mains, &Per all, half a million of chill Inn uninstructed and untaught. Many causes were undoubtedly at work to *nu this lamentable state of things; and so loog as the moral aid physical condition of the people we. neglected, they might preach in vain to them of relig;on. (Loud sheen.) But it was • fact, also, tat the quality of the education supplied Ia many of the schools was so wretch.dly indifferent, and even bad, that many of the working classes had no interest in sending their children. He concluded by moving the adoption of the following resolution " That the large amount deice sad crime which exists in England and Wales is, to a great extent, owing to popular Ignorance, and to the main cause of that ignorance —via., an iasufficient and defective prevision for popular educetioa. That the rights of the oeophrequire that parents should have • direct influence in the origination, the din vies, and the maiatenanee of the public schools for their children. That inasmuch as various forms of opinion in regard to religion prevail la the country, and large numbers of persons stand dad from existing religious eommunitier, freedom from sec taries peculiarities ought to characterise any new odurat;oual onactrunte. That it is, therefore, desirable that a national instills of secular and moral education should be established, which, aupoorted by local rates and managed by local autho rities, =dulls, all sectarian peenlierities, And allowing time for theological untrue ion by such teachers, as the children's persists may severally appoint, way brag, free of charge, the means of education within the reach °fall." Mr. Alderman PEET seconded the resolution. A pause here took place, in the expectation that an amend ment would be moved ; but no one rising, the Chairman took a show of hands, when instantly nearly every hand In the hall was held up amidst reiterated cheer,. Taii Rev. Mr. MASON moved the adoption of the follow big :—" That the to loving petition be adopted and net fur presentation to M. T. Base, Beg., and that Lawrence Hey worth, E.q., be requested to support the prayer of the same ; and that at be signed by the chain/sea on behalf of the meeting : " To the Honourable the Commons of the United King dom of Oust Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled. The petition of the inhabitants of the borough of Derby, in the county of Derby, in public meeting useu.hled, humbly shemith that your petitioners are deeply impresse dwith the pleat need of a better provision for the education of the people of England and Wales than now exists, and there. fore pray your honourable house to establish by low • system of education, which, excluding all sectarian pecu baritiee, supported by the local rates, assessed (should your honourable house think fit) on the basis of the poor rate, and managed by lust authorities specially elected for that Calssby the ratepayers, may afford to all opportunities, of charge , for a thorough training in useful knowledge and virtuosi habits. And your petitioners will ever pray." Mr. D. 8. DU NALEY seconded the resolution. The Rev. JAMES GAWTHORNE here row, and owing to age and • decay of IMMO)", requested pernsise'olt to read his sentiments upon thisquestion. The rev. gentleman read • long statement, which, with frequent interruptions, cicoa. pied an hour and twenty minutes. He denounced the system in Mr. Foe's MU u nothing lees than socialism. A speech from a worlds, mu, sad another from the Rev. Mr. Crossley, terminated the proseedings. Fox Cxra.—The third meetiog of the Fox Club this year was held at Brookees on Saturday evening.

It may be recollected that the chief evidence against him WWI his own child, an Cilium* lad about seven years old, and Eliza Tarrant, the mother of the infant. The lad swore that both of them stabbed the child with the awl, but the (node denied it. In mem quires of such evidence being taken, the Secretary of State has thought proper to emanate hie ma tinee, and it it likely that he will have a free pardon.

Mother sale of land took plug yesterday in the court of the Encumbered Estates Commissioners, and the former owner, who was also the petitioner in the case, was declared to be the purchaser. From the following extract from the printed rental it will be perceived that persons not already acquainted with the lands would have som e difficulty in ascertaining their probable value : The pan of the lands denominated the Old Deer Park of Tema, sad Cottier's Ord. n thereto belonging, situate in the barony et Cloalik, and Riert's County, containing 88a. Or. 37p., plaatatioa unman, equal to 142.. 3 r . 2Gp. s t atu t e measure. Tenants. Mrs. Bergin and Samuel Palmer, Esq. The former beiae a yearly tenant of ea. 2r. 38p., at a rant of 471.10 e. 6d ; sad the latter holding tla. Ir. 39p , under a parr agreement for the lite of the petitioner. A proportion of the head rent, W. is Bd. to he deducted. For the rea son stated in the following a profit rent canoct be estimated: the whole of the 881.0 r. 37p. of the lands to be sold, includ ing the rent of No. 1, together with other lands of consi derable value, not included in the petition, were assigned to, arid are now in the pas.moion of, Mr. Palme r , f or th e lif e o f the petitioner by parol agreement, whereby Mr. Palmer vivid to pay petitioner for these and said other lands a bulk rent of 220 i. clear above ail head rent and charges. It is, therefore, impracticable to allocate or apportion any specific sum as and for the rent of these 81a. lr. 39p. The per char, will not be bound by this agreement, but may, on the Perfection of his deed of conveyance, either continue Mr. Palmer r tenant, upon such terms as may be agreed on, or enter into the actual pore @ion and occupation, or otherwise deal with and dispose of this lot as he shall think fit. Baron Richards explained that the head rent had btu apportioned against the bead landlord, and therefore the purchaser of that lot could not be called upon to pay more as a head rent than 241. le. Bd. A jointure has been apportioned also of the other lands at a very considerable value, though it did not inter fere with rights of the jointure', as there wan only 601. payable out of the lands then offend for sale. The first bidding was 6001., and when the offers reached 1,5001, no further advances would be made, and the gentleman wh o had o ff ere d th a t sum d ec l ared that be purchased the property in trust for the owner and petitioner, Mrs. Thomas Spanner. It is impos nble to say at what rate the purchase was made, u no aprcifin value is set, in the posting, on a piece of land of 81 acne; but, taking all the circumstances into consideration, the Frretnan's Journal estimates that the land probably sold at about 18 year.' pur chase. The execution of the W 03111.13, Catherine Moore, for the murder of her husband, took place at Mary borough,on Thursday. Though no publte confession was made by the culprit, it is utderstood that the melon of the tragedy given by the unfortunate woman, who evinced tt.e utmost compunction, was not without some extenuating circum,tances, as her husband had lived for some time separate from her, and it was, according to her account, in a struggle to defend her own life that she itfficted a deadly wound on him. Toe Clare Journal gives the following account of a barbarous murder committed in the vicinity of )(Brush, on Tuesday right hist . We de:ply rtpret to have to announce the melancholy fate of Arthur O'Donnell, Eq., •of Pickwick Cuttag , , Knock, who wee waylaid and brutally murdered near his own residence last night. It apprars that the unfortunate gentleman was in the t.abit of goleg from his dwelling howe in the evenieg to the bows a his herdsman, and while he 1111 returning from doing so, et about nine u'rkelc last night, he was attacked by a par y, of whom the names or number are equally unknoen, and killed with a hatchet. The des ased was a quiet and inoffensive gentleman. The same Hamel states that the herdsman of Mr. Scanlan, of Furtane, wrs murdered on the same night in Maryfort-wood.

Upon this case, referred to in Saturday's Express, Mr. Roll, in addressing the court, drew attention to the memcrial, which set forth that, by letters-patent of King James 1., dated 21st June, 1019, power and license were granted to Edmund Alleyne, to found a college at Dulwich, to consist of one master, one warden, tour fellows, six poor brethren, 6 poor sisters, aid 12 poor scholars, to be main tained and educated according to such ordinances, statutes, and foundations, as should be made by the said Edward Alleyne in his lifetime. The memorial further showed that by the ordinances and statutes under which the college was regu lated it was directed that the said twelve poor scholars, and every of them for the time being as he shall attain to the age of eighteen years, shall then be sent out of the said col lege, and preferred to the university or some trade or manual occupation as hie capacity should ba fit at the charge of the collage, wherein the master, warden, senior, and junior fellows of the said college for the time being, er the most part of them shall for ever carefully and diligently observe which of the poor scholar for the term being will be fit and capable for the university, and which should be sent and put to trade or oceopation, and that the said scholars be disposed of accordingly as they shall severally attain the age of eighteen years. Provided there be not above or under the number of four of the said poor scholars at one time maintained in the university. It wu also ordained that a suiteblis allowance should be granted to each of the four scholar. daring the time they were at the university, to be continued during a period cf ight year', but such allowance to cease t o an y one o f t h em should he be preferred before the expiration of the eight year. A proper yearly examination in Whitson week was also ordained, with a view to ascertain the proficiency of the scholars. Further, that the uiet should be general, the master, warden, fellows, and scholars dining in the hall. Further, that there shall be two general audit days, and public meetings kept and observed in the said college on the 4th March and 4th September. Further, that no lease or demise shall be made or let to any pence' or persons of any of the lands given by him, the said fonder, to the said college, but at one of the said public audit days aforesaid by the consent and approbation of the muter, warden, assistant, senior and junior fellows of the said college, or the most part of them there present, under the hands and common seal of the said college, and that the same lease or leases shall be granted for no longer term than 21 years, with • valuable rent reserved thereupon without any fine to be taken for the same. Further, that the revenue of the lands which the founder had given to the college should be appropriated in certain proportions to the diet of the master, warden, fellows, and sch las. Provision was then mode for the disposal of the surplus over and above the sum expended in diet, and various stated amounts were accordingly directed to be Feld to the muter, the warden, the poor brethren and sisters, and the scholars. The sur plus over and above these payments was left at the di posal of the muter for the good of the college. One of the principal allegations in the memorial was the fol. lowing :--t. That the superior s rt of education expressly in tended by the said founder to be given to the twelve poor scholars has not for a great number of years been afforded, notwithstanding the express and clear directions contained in his said statutes, although at some period of time the intention of the founder in this respect has been complied with, inasmuch as from the year 1650 to the year 1690 12 poor scholars were sent to the university from the said college, and that from the year 1714 to the year 1770 there were 6 sent, and that the last boy that was so sent to the university had an allowance of 251. for eight years made to him by the said college. That the education given to the said poor scholars previ ously to the ego of 14, is not by may mesas of that character and description which is likely to render any boy at the age of 14 apparently capable of being qualified fo r th e un i vers i ty, in as much as the superior description of elementary iostrue tion pointed out by the said statutes is altogether neglected, and those stimulants to emulation and exertion which the founder directed to be afforded by taking the poor scholars to the public examinations of St. P au l' s and Merchant Taylor's schools are never resorted to. That in the opinion of your memorialists, it was one of the prominent objects of the founder's views and intentions, that • good and super i or education should be given to the s aid poor scholars, and that such poor scholarship should in fact be the source from which some of the fellowships of the said college should Me constantly or frequently supplied. The memorialists further alleged that the revenues of the college had been in various ways misappropriated. A state ment of accounts was embodied In the memorial, showing that at the audit which took place on the 4th March, 1846, the total receipts for the year, including the balance pre viously in hand, amounted to 11,6761. From this sum was deducted, under the head of "discharge," 2,6531. leaving a balance of 9 0231. Of this residue was delivered to the warden, and the 9,0001. which remained had been divided partly among the master, warden, fellows, poor brethren and sister., the balance of 5,6251., being de livered to the warden to be disbursed by him on account of the college. The revenue, it appeared was divi.ted into 600 shares, and eke memorialists allege that according to the statement of accounts submitted to the auditors there re mined 3734 shares which the master, warden, and fellows had taken upon themselves to apply to their own use, and that of other members of the miler, which application of the shares the memorialir @contended was contrary to the designs and intentions of the founder. Further, that the manner in which the amounts are rendered at the audits was also contrary to the design of the founder. In conclu sion, the memorialists recapitulated in general terms the various grounds upon which they request the interference of the archbishop, and the learned counsel, in the omme of his argument, said that, under all circumstances, he begged that his grace would declare in the order to be made upon the memorial now before the court, that the intim tics of the founder was to establish a grammar school ; that the present system does not give effect to such iAtentieit ; and he further urged that his gest° should direct • scheme to he prepared, which should lead to • due interpretation of the charter and the statutes. The next ground of complaint was as to the mode of keeping the amount., end the mode of distribsting the revenue. What the memorialists complained of wee this, that the *mounts were nut so kept as to 'sable as one--either the person acting as aditor. or the Arch bishop of Canterbury al visitor of the n college --to ascertain whether the statutory sums were properly expended, accord. lag to the terms of the charter. The object of the learned gen tlemsaat the ekes of his remarks was to show in general terms that the funds of the college were not appropriated sccord ing to the intentions of the founder, and that ft was the duty of the college to ma k e t h e most of the proper, belonging to it. Upon all grounds he hoped that his Grate would give the matter tis full canoideration, In order that tittle who were interested in the college might receive all the benefits which it was intended should be conferred upon them. Mr. J. H. Palmer Gillowed on the tame side, and Mr. Georga Turner commenced his argument on behalf of the college, but was not able to conclude before the rising of the court. Oa Saturday the arguments were resumed. Mr. George Tamer, Q.C, said that, in eppearing for the warden and authorities of Dulwich College, he had to ex re's his full contumelies is what had fallen from his ' learned friend on the other side as to the bringing the qua ' tine at issue under the notice of his grace and he trusted that whatever might be his grace's decision, it would he fin a l. He must also ewer his thanks for the calm and temperate manner in which the case had been Grimed. The learned gentleman then read a long extract concerning the founda tion of the college, and contended that it was originally in tended for the wardin, mater, and six poor persons. By the deed of 1619, the property of the founder was c• 11- veyed to the corporation for its sole use, under a lieense from the crown. Thus there was a perfect grant for their exclusive benefit. All the difficulty had .risen from haying had power from the crown to found this con:oration, and from the desire of the founder to introduce other members, and it would be for his grace to con.id r the effect of the statutes. The founder attempted to vary the original provisions, and to introduce six new fellows who should be members of the establishment and thirty out- ••• •••• 6 0 . 0 ..1.41Z0 L este sire) out menthen' and also to introduc e six msistants who should repreeent the interests of the several parishes. This is to some extent at variance with the °retinal grant from the crown and the first intention of the founder ; and it was now wanted to give away the property which the founder origi nally gave to the celeste. The college never accepted the additional provident, made for them in the testator's will, but there having bean a grant actually made to particular individuals, it was now attempted to take it away. The first question which arose on the present neon.. sion was that the superior education intended for 12 poor scholars hes not been provided. The teamed counsel then proceeded to read extracts from the allepatiots in the me morial of the assistants, which went to the that in the year 1650, 12 poor scholars were sent to the university, and further stated what toe k place in the year 1701, unte r the order of Archbishop Wake. Complaints had been made that no sufficient attention fled been paid to the education, but net against the character of it. Until this memorial was presented, he wee not aware that tiny complaint had been made wirs% the character of the ethic teen. Nevertheless, the warden and intestine desired to plum this subject under his grace's jurisdiction. According to the premiering of the 35th statute • certain number of the junior fellows were to be eepob e of nutting in choir, and others of instructing in different branches of trade, such as taihrhg, shoemaking, &0., those scholars who might be unfit for the university. The L ender did not intend that there should he an uncertainty in the matter, end that the *choler' should be left uninstructed until the age of 18 yule. Archbishop Wake's subsequent injunction stowed that there must be some age at which they should be instructed. The master and wardens had t'otlowed up the regulations, and 1501. was usually ex t ended fur each boy who was apprenticed, a giren aum being toil as the pre mium, with an annual allowance for clothing, Bce, and • gratuity upon the expiration of ;he indentures. It must be berms in mind that it was neces ex/ and tt t customary erele ffi mre ki ntic i en givinge a a t s a u n pa er r lyage educa tion. Persons of atteinn and s°ciety would toot rend their children to school with Lose tee an inferior greet', and if boys of the higher class could no: be introduced, the re would be great difficulty in educating the others. Tee question arose whether it was not more for the ultimate bent h. of the latter to bring them up as at present. Tin re hod actually been another school estahlishei in Dulwicb, p city in con nexion with the colter, and the inhabitants pref. rrcd send ing their children there—about 80 attendine- elo ough at some expense, to having them educated gratuitously in the college. The great advantage of the higher claw , of schools was an introguetion to a superior station, and if this were not obtainable, the schelers f'.,,a the college to the university would be thrown upon the world without prospects or occupation. Duleich Celeste could not be locked upon as retemelitig the Wettainster or Charter house schools. Could the Cearterhonse stand in its present position Hit was bound by the same regulations as Dated* College ? Regard was had at the latter to the ultimate benefit of the bp, rather than to the oilers of any parti cular parent who might think it desirable that his child should be placed in • higher position in life. The founder had given the whole funds for the benefit of the college, and it wee doubtful whether they emir! graft a new payment on the college for objects not contemeeated in the crieinal faun dation. The instant a boy attained the age of 16 yearn, his place was tided up by anotecr bey, and to 'emu toe course prayed for by the memeriaes , s would lead to the ap plication of the funds for the benefit of persona who had ccued to be members of the college. It was a eel that the intentions of be founder with regard to the sending of boys to the University had not been complied with; but, in considering the intentions el the founder, SOlllB regard must also be paid to the state of our Univer sities at that time In thou early days in our Ueiversities were boys who acted in thecharacter of servants to the fellows of the college, and who occupied • very interior statMa to that of a clear, and he (Mr. Turner) thought the intention of the founder was most probably that these boys should be placed in that position, and not its the position an education at the University would now confer. Of the apportionment of 6001. a year, which the founder hod directed to be paid for the maintenance l o f these boys, that sum mint be so applied, but when the court came to consider the quetion of lapsed shares which had not been disposed of by the founder, they would stand on a totally different principle, and teem appropriation de pond entirely on the discretion of his Grace the Visitor, the question being that where specific hied' were to be applied, there the law necessarily settled the point; but where the surplus was net directed to be applied for particular pur poses, there the question of law ceased, and it became a ques tion of discretion. His learned friend (Mr. IL It) had adverted ' to the inferior nature of the trades to which the boys had been apprenticed, but he contended such was tar from being 1 the eau, the boys being put out to trades most suited to their habits and dispositions. It appeared that in the dispo sition of the 6001. a per, it was divitied into portions between certain objects, as to some of which the founder had no jeerer to make any provision. lie learned friend had said all those shares which failed were to be considered as entirely undisposed of. Ile (Mr. Turner) dissented from that cpinion,for this reason, that the founder, by the deed of 1619, actually conferred the whole i roperty to the use of the college—he gave the property to the corpo ration out and out. The hounder only reserved to himself the power to apportion and di-tribute the surplus between the al members. With regard to the question, how the lapsed shares were to be disposed of, he submitted the same prieciple would apply in this case as apt lied in the Court of Chancery to eases of trust, namely, that if there be property entiveyed upon trusty, portions of which were not declared, but upon trust to divide between specific objects • certain amount in certain proportions, then the effect v.ould be that the surplus must be applied for the benefit of those particular objects, but not necessarily in the same proportion as declared by the founder in the trusts. The learned counsel referred to the cases " Attorney-Genceal and Johnson" (Ambler's It-ports, p. 190), " Attorney-General anti King's College." Adopting the principle there bid down, he canoe to the question how the surplus would be btst applied for the benefit of the boys? He denied there tad been anything like the undue appro priation which had been suggested on the other side. Although the boys had net received the bent fits in the exact shape and form intended by the founder, they bad received very nearly the full amount of benefit which they could have derived under any circumstuces. The income of the college Lad been dealt with on the ether side as being somewhere about 7,0001. • year, bat he submitted the net income, atter expenditure, was within 4,001. or 5,0001. • year. The gross income of the college was 7,5571., but the 6001. had to be taken irom it, according to the pro vinions of the statute, bringing the income down to 7,2871. 13s. 11d. The cltgoings, rates, tame., repairs, law and general expenses, not including diet and other general charges which were expressly provided for, amounted to the sum of 2,3371. 13s. ltd. The surplus was divided into six hundred ports, each part bring Se. is, and not 151. The claim of the boys in the 6001. would be 201. for their apparel and 601. for diet. Then, goirg to the 600 shares, they got for the bettering of their apparel twenty shares, which, taking the shares at 81.55., would be 1651.; they then got for the increase art diet, for the 12 poor scholars and 10 servants, 110 shares, making • sum ut 40-i'., and forming a total altogether of 710/. ter the benefit of the boys. The college had actually pelt for preferment of the boys, in the year mesitioned in the memorial. 2621. 21. 3d.. betides 4201. for cast, clothing, washing, nudieet attendance, and books ; and theretore if the accounts were talon, with respect to the boys, it would be found that, following out the provisions of the statute, they would have only been entitled to receive 740/. in the year before men tioned, while the sum actually received wss 6821. 2s. 31. The boys had not had their shares moan ire forma, as the founder intended, but they had enjoyed the substantial application of those shares. He submitted that under the present system the boys were educated according to their station in lite. and not brought up above their con dition, and that this must be considered so reasonable an application of the funds as to induce his genre the visitor to deem that it would not be expedient to alter she arrange ment made in the ease. One consideration of importance was the usage. From the period of 1626 she funds of the college had been distributed and divided recording to this arrangement. In the early years the funds were not suffi cient, but in the year 1715 they became more than sufficient, and the surplus had always been divided according to the present mode. He contended it had been the habit of the courts to abide by the usage in eases of charities, wh he usage was not inconsistent with the rules laid down by the (minder, and referred to the ease of the "Attorney•Oeueral and Smithies"' (Cooper's Reports) p. 5. Under these circumstances, he trusted it would not be thought prudent to alter the usage in this case with a view to changing the mode of arrangement, for the purpose of giving to ye teen what would be in any event but a small additional interest. As to the mode in which the eccomne were kept he trusted his grace would not alter it, merely In order to allow of the assistants Peeing that the boys had the full benefit of the diet. As to the autumns themselves, the mode in which the memorialists had treated that part of the case was rather singular. At pegs 18 of the memorial they stated attempts were made 'at different times by the muter and warden to eulude the of of several parishes from _...i i dal II
