ellievous effects of a number of meddling sectarians, who had scat tered themselves over the country, and by their impolitic conduct, created a general feeling of indignation among the population and Priesthood. The Petition Wl5 then brought up and read. On the question that it do lie on the table, Mr. J. SNJ rni said that all the Petitioners claimed was, the right of putting into.tbe bands of their children at school such hooks as they considered most proper for their understanding. This was but fair, and ought not in reason to be refused them. Mr. BUTTERWORTH observed, that as long as the great mass of the people in Ireland were allowed to remain in ignorance, the Roman Catholics were quiet, for ignorance best suited Noir put poses; but the moment it was attempted to give education, the Priests rose up to oppose it. They intruded themselves into Bible %Meetings to which they were not invited. At a public Bible meeting at Carlow, the Priests attended, supported by an immense mob, from whose violence some of the friends of the Bible Society were obliged to fly o ith their lives; some escaped by getting over walls —(Some et ies of" No, no"). Mr. BUTTER say yes, yes; and I can prove it. Sir J. NEWPORT said, the circumstances mentioned by the lion. Member connected with tire meeting at Carlow, were wholly without foundation,—(Hear, hear) ;—and he was enabled to con tradict them on most excellent authority—that of Colonel Roch lord, who presided at the Meeting on the occasion, and stated in his evidence before the Committee on the state of !rebind, that the accounts given of thy proceedings at that Meeting, and which the Hon. lilember (Mr. Butterworth) had just repeated. were niisre pre•entationa of the reel facts. The Catholics admitted the reading of the Bible, with the addition of notes and comments ; and in this they were borne out by the opinions of some of the most eminent dignitaries of the Established Church, who held that the Bible ought not to be read unaccompanied with the Catechism.—(Hear.) The petition was ordered to lie on the table. NEW soUTii WALES. NIr.J. SMITH took occasion to put a question to the Honourable Secretary for the Colonies. He had read in a New South Wales kaper, entitled The Sidney GniteUe, that the Grand Jury there bad wilted the prison and found certain warrants signed by a Magistrate fur the idliction of torture. In one instance an individual was sentenced to receive 25 lashes a-day, uatil he made a particular dis closure. For five mornings successively he underwent the allotted punishment, and on the sixth day he was taken before the Magis trates, but no confession having been elicited, the infliction of the stripes was repeated on that and on subsequent days. The question, therefore which the Hon. Gentleman had to propose was, whether that Magistrate held any, and what situation under Government. Mr. W I 1310 - HORTON said, the warrant to which the Hon. MembLr had alluded was merely ant order, that if a prisoner had been sentenced to receive a certain number of lashes, the Magis trates, according to their general practice, might inflict this punish ment at different periods and in different proportions. He by no means intended to justify such a mode of proceeding; but it was the un d oubte d practice of the Colony. If the House considered . . . . the description of criminals, and the nature of society in that Co lony, they would not be very ready to pass any very lung censure upon an arparent asperity, or upon an objectionable mode of exe cuting the laws in certain peculiar cases. He could state, that every opposition would in future be give, to the practice complained of. The Magistrate in question was in the Council, and held office of 8001. per annum. He bad no objection to lay the papers connected with the subject before the House, and with respect to the Acts of the Colony, they would be laid before the House, as soon as received, in conformity to the Act of Parliament. Mr. SM I TH had been informed that the Council of 'New South Wales bad even gone so Gras to pass an Act of Indemnity for the protection of this Magistrate, and of other Magistrates who ball been guiity of similar malpractices. Mr. WILMOT-HORTON acknowledged the truth of this statement, and observed, that the practice being general, if any pro. ceedings had been instituted against the Magistrate in question, they must also have been taken against the Magistracy in general. BANK CHARTER AMENDMENT EMI.. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHRIVER moved the Order of the Day for going it.to s Committee ou the Bank Charter Amendment Bill. On the question being put," That the Speaker do leave the Chair, ' 111 r. H. GURNEY objected to the principle of the Bill. e instanced the case of a Joint Stock Company, the Solicitors of which had sent circulars to many persons of distinctiott, requesting them to become partners in the concern, which wit to have a Governor and Deputy Governor, and at t he same time stating that it was not necessary for them to take any shares or to sacrifice any portion of their time or attention. If all communication between the country banks and London were cut off, it would either render the measure absolutely null, or it would inundate the country with the worst species of bank paper. The House then resolved itself into a Committee. On the reading of the clause which rendered all the partners of a Joint Stock Bank equally responsible, Air. PEARS!: expressed his disapprobation if the measure. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, it was int- possible that the Bank of England could carry on all the banking 'concerns of the country ; then if other banks must come into opera tion, why should the number of partners in them be limited to six, there was no magic in that particular number? That there were great defects in the act he was very ready to admit ; and if the Bank could have been prevailed upon to have given greater facilities, 'or if the term of their privileges had expired, he should never have thought of bringing forward this Bill in its present shape. He certainly looked upon it as a very great defect in it, that parties were 'to be restrained drawing upon London below a certain amount • but still he did not think, that because the measure could not be rendered u perfect as be could b.&ve wished it, it ought to be rejected altogether. Mr. LEYCESTER thought, that the greater the number of partners in banks the less security there would be for the respecta bility of their character, or the solvency of their circumstances. He thought the present Bill objectionable in every point of view. Mr. MONCK was of opinion that the Bank Directors, acting as Trustees for a large body of Proprietors, were iistifiable in stating their jealousy of this Bill. A country paper currency payable in London, was extremely useful, and altogether be thought it better not to legislate at all upon the subject until the expiring of the Bank Charter. Mr. S. RICE objected to this Bill, as giving the Bail a more extended monopoly than they at present enjoyed. He was moat desirous to see a clause introduced which would make it imperative on all Joint Stock Banks to give publicity to the amount of their dssues,as such publicity would form a guarantee against an over lame. Mr. J. I'. GRANT contended, that there was no danger of any over issue of country notes, for they must inevitably return upon the issuers of them, in consequence of its being necessary to find Bank of England notes to pay them, which must ultimately be converted into gold. There was a clause in the Bill, providing that country banks should not issue notes ia London. Was it meant thereby that they were to have no agents or correspondents in London for the payment of their bills ? If so, the words of the clause ought to be rendered so clear that no dispute druid arise about the interpreta tion of them. Ile then objected to the clause which prevented country bankers from issuing any note payable in London under the value of £5O. In conclusion he expressed an opinion that the abo lition of the exclusive privileges of the Bank of England would not be productive of lass to the Bank, whilst ft would be productive of great benefit to the country at large. After a few words from Mr. T. WILSON, the clause was agreed to When the next clause was read from the Chair, Mr. HER RIES proposed the introduction of the words "and other Promissory Notes," which was objected to by Mr. BREM. On the clause for preventing any number of j!iersons, within sixty five miles of London, trausacting the busines of Bankers, Mr. DENMAN objected to the principle of the Bill, which was so ahortive and incomplete, that he most sincerely hoped some one would divide the Committee en it. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER considered any objection to the principle was perfectly irrelevant and a waste of time in Committee on a Bill. It was clear that the Learned Member never could have read the correspondence between his Majesty's Government and the Batik. In answer to a qpestion from Mr. PASCOE Gement., The A TTOR N EY-G EN ERA L explained, that according to this clause, certainly no persons acting as bankers, in Norwich, for Instance, could do business as bankers in London, or discount, which latter, he believed, formed the principal business of bankers. Mr. GRENFELL said it was impossible then that any Joint Stock Company could ever be formed on such a principle. The CH A NCR LLO R of the EXCH EQUER proposed to post pone the clausethen the subject of discussion, and proceed' to the .ether clauses. When they were disposed of, he should have no objection to report progress. The staygestlon of thb Right Hon. Gentleman, after a few words from Mr. V. FIIIGERALD, 1)Ir. Huila, and the Arronser Groaaat, was ad o pted—'the clause was postponed. The other claases of the Mil were then agreed to. Baocors reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again this day sennight. The Offences at Sea BM was read a third tinse and passed. The Irish Lands and Tenements Bill and the Irish Stamp Duties _ we're read a third dene'and passed. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the Mown stoJrned $ Oesii'Ourclt. 'A R. LONDON. SATURDNY, APRIL is, 1825. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O ' CLOCK. The Consol Market appears to be in a slumber this morning, and scarcely a bargain is doing. All are waiting the event of the Funding on Monday—opinions are divided on the subject, but the thank the Book will be filled in one day. Consols opened at 791 for the Account, the same price as they left off yesterday, and at which pike they remain steady. Consols are now 791 to 1. In the Foreign Market little or nothing is doing.

This forenoon we received the Austrian Observer to the 3d, and Frankfort Papers to the Bth inst. both of which contain intelligence from Greece, though not of so late a date as our arrivals through France. In the former it is, stated that the Government is reproached (and we think justl)) with dissipating the sums derived from the English loans, instead of assisting the brave defenders of Missolonghi, and sending to their relief 'a sufficient number of ships with ammunition and pro visions. It is said the troops in the Morea clamorously _demand their arrears, and that CoLocoraoor since his unsuccessful attempt on Tripolizza, has assutned a threatening tone towards the Government, supported' by part of theCarains of the Hydriot ships. The Frankfort Papers contain extracts from the Oriental Spectator of the 19th of February, noticing the preparations making by IBRAHIM PACHA to reduce Missolonghi, and the failure of COLOCOTRONI on Tripo lizza. It also states that the fleets of Hydra and Spezzia escaped with difficulty from the Turks in the Gulf of Lepanto. It is also stated that a Greek Bishop escorted by two Turkish Officers, has arrived from Constanti nople, to induce the besieged to listen to reason and to save them from inevitable ruin. But this measure prompted by humanity and sound policy. has led to no result. A Jamaica Mail arrived this morning, with Papers and Letters to the 7►h of March, at which time the Co lony was perfectly tranquil. The Jamaica Courant, of the 6th, states Mhat the Beaver, which left the gulf of Maracaibo on the 26th February, and owing to the gales could only communicate twice with the town, afterwards touched at Aux Cayes. The Haytians were much rejoiced at the appointment of a Consul General from England ; and Mr. M'llinzts was expected at Port•au Prince, where the Haytian Commissioners from France had arrived, but the commercial treaty had not been made public. The French frigates had brought a present of porcelain to the PRESIDENT, valued at a million of francs. The French Papers of Thursday have reached us ; they contain some further accounts from Greece, which state, on the authority of the Austrian (Aserver, that the fort of Vassiladi was lost in consequence of a bomb which fell into the powder magazine, and blew it up. The whole garrison of 200 men, after a most desperate resistance, were all massacred. The fortified island of Anatolico was next attacked, and the Convent of Kun deros on the continent, by 'Whose fire it was chiefly pro tected, was also carried by storm after a most gallant ' ' resistance: almost the whole garrison of 4.00 perishing in the conflict or being put to the sword. The Turks lost great numbers and some of their chief officers. The garrison and inhabitants of Anatolico then, it is said, begged to capitulate, and were allowed by lattaurra PACHA, after laying down their arms, to retire un ,molested towards Arta. During these events 700 Greeks made a desperate sortie from Missolonghi, and retired after having inflicted an immense loss on their opponents, comprising many of the principal Tueld.ll Officers, and after having suffered a loss of SOO men themselves. It is then repeated that Sir FREDERICK ADAM bad repaired to Missolonghi and obtained terms for the inhabitants ; but, this from later advices appears to have been untrue. The c am a ti aiol us et states, that at a party, which took place at the house of a Duchess on Tuesday evening, the eldest son of the cele brated C.APAats was one of the guests, when the horrible intelligeßce just received from Illissolonghi was read aloud to thr company...— i nt unfortunate youth, after betraying #gaseg t he d eepest grief, fainted away, and became the sole object of universal sympathy.-+ ' Great rejoicings have taken place at Paris, in consequence of the rejection of the Bin of Primogeniture by the Chamber of Peers. Several quarters of the city illuminated. in spite of the exertions of the police to prevent such public demonstrations of triumph. Brussels PAperi to the 12th inst: reached us this fort noon. One of them contains from a Liege Journal an account of an accident which befel the King of the NETHERLANDS, at Brussels. His MAJESTY visiting the new wing of the Royal Palace, building for Prince FREDERICK, stepped on the lath and plaster of a room stet floored, and fell through the ceirng ; but his arms being caught by the rafters he was extricated without any injury, except a slight scratch on thy back. Mr. DRAFFEN, the King's Messenger, strived at the Colonial Office yesterday morning about five o'clock, with dispatches for Earl BATHURST, from Sir FREDERICK ADAU, the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands.

THE WES rNIEATH CASE.—When this case was be fore the Consistory Court last term, Sir Cneurroraga lioaursox, the Judge, expressed a wish that the Noble Narquis and his Lady should come to some arrangement, and for that purpose he post poned Lis judgment. Yesterday Sir Coats-mm stated that the rase stood in precisely tbesame situation as it did last term, and both parties were d e sirous of obtai n i ng hi s judgment.. He sh ould, therefore, give it next Court day. Ye,terday, at M try-la-bonne Office, an interesting female applied to Mr. Itaseuxson for assistance. She stated that she had been seduced front her situation by a young Nobleman, and when she became enceinte, he deserted her. She had subsequently given birth to a child, and having got into another place of service,' in a respectable family, she paid 10s. a week to the person who nursed her child ; hut she could only obtain ss. a week from the parish officers, his Lordship having employed a Solicitor to oppose granting a larger sum. Mr. Ilawusson regretted that he could net assist her, and complained of the want of courtesy on the pan of the parish officers. The Duke and Duchess of CI ARENCE let their seat at Bushy en Tburday morning, and proceeded teliteir temporary residence in Charles street, iierkeiey-square. The Duke and Duchess of CLA RENCE, the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCCSTER. the Duke of Sussaz, and the Princess SOPHIA, visited the Princess itucurrik on Thursday.

Sir Cstantats SMART arrived at Rio de Janeiro on the 6th of February last on his Mission. The Ladies FITZPATRICK, of Brigstock, near Thrap noire, met with an accident while riding in an open carriage in the neighbourhood of Cottingham on Thursday se'nnight. The horse suddenly took affright ' and running into a ditch, overturned the vehicle, by which the Ladies and servant boy were thrown out with great violence. Lady Gnomons was confined to her room far some days from the effects of the accident; but we are happy to bear that both the Ladies are now ilble to take their usual airing.—Huniingsfen WeeklyAiernal. The planet Mars is now in the most favontable situa tion for the lovers of astronomy ; appearing as a star of the first magnitude. A good telescope will spew the white spots at his poles, which are conjectured to be masses of snow remaining there inputted, this planet having a closer resemblance to our earth than any other in the system. A Comet appeared in the East Indies, in the middle, of September, In Taurus, whicb continued for three weeks, and then suddenly disappeared. This event is stated to have made a wog. derful impression on the native troops ; Mr. BENNET, who was chaired as the substitute of Mr. KAVANAGH, at Carlow election, while proceeding through the town in triumph, in a handsonily..clecorated car, was thrown doers and trodden upOn.

Sr. Martin's Church in the Fields presents now a grand termination of the view from Pall-mall, as all the obstructions that prevented it from being seen from that point, are now removed. The Papers are all mistaken which state that Sir Josuutt Vs.uaautt was the architect by whom it was erected. They should have known that Grass was thelarchitect,according to whose plan it was built about a century ago. The Mixott of Lyons, it is said, would not allow' Mademoiselle Gator:is to perform the tragedy of Leonidas in that City, for the benefit of the Greeks. The name of Sir Gamma STAUNTaIe was inserted by mistake in the majority for the vote of 50001. to the President of the 13osrd of Trade. Dr. BARRINGTON, late Bishop of Durham, was pro moted to that See about the time that Barrington, the celebrated pickpocket, was transported.

A Renchman finds something to congratulate his country upon in every thing, as the following ingenious explanation of the reason why there are no foot pavements in Paris will show: , " The streets of London," says M. L. Ile Rocoaroaa, "are very i spacious ; in one of them, among others, twelve carriages can drive' abreast, and there are very broad foot-paths besides. These are td be found every where.

As a man of the name of Boyd, along with another man and two women, were going home from the fair, four yowl men' came up and insisted on the girls going with them, at the same time using them very roughly, when Boyd interfered, telling them it was a shame to behave in such a manner, when they desisted. After proceeding a little farther. they sepa parated, Boyd's home being in a different direction from the ethers, be was followed by the young men, who knocked hint down and stabbed him, nay even ripped hint up in a manner too horrible for description. He was carried to the nearest house, and medical assistance got from Falkirk, but in vain, as he lingered iu great agony till next morning, when he expired. He has left a wife and two children.

Had his Lordship's stay been of longer duration, it was in contemplation to present him with an address, expressing the deep feeling entertained of the eminent sere ces he has rendered his country, during the many years he has taken so prominent a part in her eouncik. His Lordship's administration has been charac terised by this remarkable feature, that amidst the vaious corms which have assailed it, be has never made a person. 1 enemy—all Fades have united to admire the consistency and integrity of his conduct.
