•dinitted some Reform was necessary—for those very changes had re ,noved many of their complaints to the original Bill. (Hear.) The principle of the Bill, however, be contended, remained unaltered. — ;),form, he maintained, was required by the state of the country; it wou ld no longer endure the present system, the representation by pre 4ctiption ; therefore, it' they wished to maintain the institutions of the c ountry, and the attachment of the people to them, the people must be e oon%inced that they were really, not virtually, represented. (Hear, Har.) But be was charged with having compromised his opinions, 'etc:,t.e this measure was not accompanied with the ballot. Now he had never considered the ballot a sine qua non. He had held that it w the preferable mode of taking votes—but he had never deism" :but Reform could not be good without it. (Hear.) The plan now ;se ised he deemed quite satisfactory without it. The measure gave incleased power to numbers—but there would also be the indirect, and that he deemed the legitimate, use of property : the direct influence of property was pernicious ; but its indirect influence would be shown in ompelling individuals of wealth to cultivate the good opinion of their i eighbourhood. He thought that they ought to accommodate them- Tiros to the altered state of things._ to the improved education and in , iligence of the country, and the spread of wealth. That, he thought, ..could be done by this bill. As to ih2 talk about danger from the revo :utionary tendency of this bill, he much feared that if the class who would ~ )e benefited by this bill, were disposed to revolution, were hostile to the nstiiutions a the country, this bilrmight do much or them ; but this it could do, it would remove the ground of complaint, and make even _bent have greater reason to feel attachment towards the institutions •-ti the country. Therefore, instead of having a revolutionary ten. de•lcy, the bill would have a directly contrary effect. With respect to tee charges of partial views,he ensiled not those who made such charges, 'lie possession of feelings that could prompt them. They who pro this bill rested all their claims to success by rendering the bill usetul as well as acceptable to the country, and all their claims to just recognition by posterity, to the manner in which they brought forward tic boll ; and with such feelings they did not allow any partial views to mingle with the measure. However, he must now urge on all those who %etc friendly to the measure, to remember that if the amend now proposed were carried, it would so damage the bill, that such !•t:CI:VSN would be deemed the first blow struck at the measure, and a lion that would be fatal. He therefore earnestly called on all the sir ere friends of the measure, to resist the amendment, and t o carry the bill in its present shape. 1, id STORMONT said this night's exposure proved that the ori •:inal bill had been a tissue of errors. It had swollen from tw eye to twenty-five pages, and yet it was declared that there was no alteration in the bill, It was, in fact, a new bill ; at all events it was now a very different bill—and by the time it had gone through the Committee, the Ministers' " fat friend" would have become a very "lean" one. (A laugh.) There was too much seeking for popularity—that bane of public men—in this bill :in former times there would have been differ ent conduct. However popular it might have been, they would not have supported a bill founded on such vicious principles. He denied that the amendment was brought forward to throw out the bill, (a laugh ;) it was not brought forward with friendly motives certainly—but it was not meant as a trial of strength. He was not one of those who thought the rumberjof that house inconveniently large. He approved of the amend mot, and he trusted it would be carried. As they were likely to have .n many Catholic members, and as the repeal of the Union was to be el/dated, ought they to unction the diminution of the number of mem bers i He begged to know whether time would be allowed before the bill should be considered in Committee. General DUFF briefly supported the amendment. Mr. FERGUSON strongly opposed the amendment. He did not sce how it could be supported by any Scotch member who sought to have the large places in Scotland represented. If any Scatch member voted rgtinst the increase of members for Scotland, he would not dare to go but to Scotland with any chance of success with his constituents. He did not wash to sacrifice the sound representation of England ; but ought Gatti a to male memb ra, and Glasgow, with its 140.000 inhabitants, to Lace r o meintxti? He was against the corrupt representation of rotten torougles, of the elo. a boroughs, and he considered the improvement now might to bi of nll.l beneficial tendency. It had been said by Mr. Dun. ring .h it " the influence of the crown had increased, was increasing, and rught t 3 he dimini heir" but that was an influeace of which they had ro lenger sixak—it was au influence that had ceased to exist. (C leers from the Opposition.) If hon. members would hear what hc had further to state on this point, they might not be quite so ready to cheer, especially from such part of the house. The influence of the Crown, in the sense in which Mr. Dunning spoke of it, was gone ; but by what had it been superseded ? By the base and degrading boroughmongering influence. Such was its extent, that administrations had been obliged to pay court to it—and good measures had been unable to be brought forward till it was ascertained what were the opinious of this Duke or that Marquis, who had his representatives in that house. He believed this bill would introduce the most decided and useful improvement in the representation of the country, and therefore the Bill had his fall support. Lord LOUGHBOROUGH made a few remarks. He said that the principal object he had for rising was to declare that he would not sup port any accession to the representation of Scotland. Colonel WOOD said he was ready to support the bill in principle ; but in detail he wasopposed to many of its provisions. By the bill there were to be forty-one members kuocked off from the representation of England ; but he was of opinion that not one could be dispensed with ; and he also thought that Ireland, with reference to numbers, was very fairly represented. He did not mean at that late hour to detain the house; but in a future stage of the Bill he would give his vote ac cordingly. On the motion of I%lr. HUNT the debate was adjourned till to morrow (this day.) The Coal Trade Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be com mitted on Friday neat. Several petitions in favour of Reform in Parliament were presented. The orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at half-past One o'clock. S'l 0( KS A 3 per Ct.

Wind N.E. THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. TUESDAY, APRIL 19. sflie Eatafette from France again brings intelligence, to •(:;lew our apprehensions, that the waves of revolution have ~ut vet subsided. There is something, we fear, in the situ n of the French people, as regards their commerce, the distribution of their wealth, their national finance, and too general deficiency of productive employment, which renthrs them most difficult to govern, without giving way to that spit it of enterprise, which, whatever be its distant :csults. promise them the proximate development of their and its reward of temporary glory. The Govern- Llent of France, probably from financial causes, as well as Iron those more ostensibly avowed, of general disincline :son to war, are apparently sincerely co-operating with the , :the r powers, to prevent the recurrence of that evil; but unfortunately while doing so, it is bringing down affliction at, those inhabitants of other countries, who have sympa tllised most in the signal triumph of the very principles on ullich its own authority is founded. Who can read of the tender mercies" to which the few Italian patriots LOW, through treachery, subjected, without sympathy; .rul feeling, in some degree, the validity of their reproaches rainst French Diplomacy, which has tempted them to their • in? The details from Italy in this day's Paper, as were 'hose of yesterday, are of the most lamentable character. As no other subject engages public attention, besides the d , Late on the reform bill, we forbear to-day to obtrude further observations on general politics; but refer our readers to our subsequent columns, for ample accounts of the tumults at PARIS; of the continued successes of the brave POLES; and of the inglorious triumphs of the Austrians in ITALY. We hourly expect news of great interest from Poland, but the rumours of the total overthrow of the Russian Maio Army, are at least premature. Yesterday was another important epoch in the modern History of England. The Reform Bill was to be sent pro Iforma to the Committee of the House, for the examination of its details ; but previously, it became necessary for the authors of the Bill to explain such amendments, as facts and further information rendered just and necessary. There was a large meeting of the Lords, and many peti tions were presented, accompanied by incidental observa tions. Lord HA RLWOOD expressed his disapprobation, and he was answered at great length by Lord GREY, who, in re marking on the threats under which Lord H. said they were called upon to vote, distinguished between threat and the sober consideration, of the political bearings of a question. Lord HAREWOOD also spoke of the licence and abuse of the press, in its advocacy of the Reform Bill ; to which Lord GREY replied, that be had no connection with the press, but that he never remembered a time wben the daily press was con-1 ducted with such great general ability. Lord LIMERICK then rose and complained of libels, in which he had been the object of attack, calculated to bring that House, and its debates, into general contempt. He particularly mentioned the strictures in the Times on Saturday, on his opinions relative to Poor Laws in Ireland ; and moved that the Author should be called to the Bar; but on suggestion, changed his motion to the Printer. The LORD CHANCELLOR agreed that it was a breach of privilege ; but he doubted the expediency of the measure,' never having found it efficient; and thought much allowance ought to be made for the great organ of communication, liberty, and civilization. Lord ELDON thought the paragraph a scurrilous and abusive comment; and Lord H A DDINGTON thought the RW lr ' same, and that it could not be passed over. Lord LONDONDERRY then alluded to attacks on the QUEEN, which had appeared in the Times; and thought them fit subjects for prosecution by the ATTORNEY-. GENERAL. Lord TEYNHA at alluded to the mischief done by the press in France ; and Lord Ror.LE spoke of the papers published at the Rotunda. In fine, it was ordered that the printer of the Times should be brought to the Bar. On the breaking up of the House of Lords, about seven o'clock, moat of their Lordships availed themselves of their privilege, to sit under the Gallery of the House of Commons ; and, in consequence, those seats were so crowded that se veral Peers, as well as fifty or sixty Members, stood the whole evening. The House itself presented even a larger assemblage than at the second reading. Both parties con tinue confident of success, and the Boroughmongers keep up their spirits, by every kind of sinistrous report. Most of the noble leaders of that party were under the Gallery, probably, to hear the performances of their retainers. Mr. JOHN SMITH presented the Mansion-house Petition, signed by 9600 Merchants, Bankers, and Traders of London. Petitions were presented against the Beer Bill. Mr. HODGES presented the Sussex Petition in favour of the Reform Bill, which was supported by Mr. Currrus— and impugned by Mr. SMELLY—approved by Lord G. Lex wox —but questioned by Alderman WINCHESTER and Mr. C. PELHAM. A counter-petition was presented from Sligo, which Mr. O'CoNNELL ascribed to the family who held the Borough, and to the Orange faction. This led to a debate, in which Mr. COOPER, Mr. DAWSON, Mr. CHAPMAN, Sir J. NEW PORT, and Mr. FERGUSON were Speakers, pro and con. A counter-petition was then presented from a close cor poration, which Mr. HUME said was very natural, as it held the monopoly of the election of which the Bill would wisely deprive it. He then enlarged on the mistakes of Mr. HUNT, in regard to the opinions in Lancashire; having undoubted authority for statins that in that county, a general unanimity favoured the Bill; and he believed that no person was opposed to it, in the various meetings at which Mr. HUNT spoke, but Mr. HUNT himself. Mr. LYTTLETON followed Mr. HUME, and amused the House by various anecdotes of the means which Mr. HUNT had used, to entrap his auditors into a concurrence with his own opinions, against the Bill. Mr. HUNT then re-stated the circumstances, and as serted, that he had letters from all parts of the country, de nouncing the measure ; and, in the course of his speech, was loudly cheered by the Opposition, mingled with much laughter from both sides ; but he concluded by declaring, that the Bill was unpopular with the working classes. Alderman WA ITIIMAN described the opinions of the ope ratives in Spitalfields, and their marked disapprobation of the course pursued by Mr. HUNT. Lord STANLEY drew the attention of the House to va rious passages in Mr. HUNT'S speeches in Lancashire; but Mr. HUNT referred, for correct reports, to the Manchester Times. Lord JOHN Russzta. then moved the order of the day, for the House to go into a Committee on the Reform Bill. It had, he said, been objected to the bill, that all the places in which there was a large popu lation had not been taken. Bat they now proposed to give Representatives to all large towns, possessed of manufacturing capital and skill. Bury, Oldham, and Roch dale, are to send each one member; Salford, with Pendleton and Braylton, to send one ; the Staffordshire Potteries one; Wakefield (omitted by mistake) one ; and Whitby one. It had been thought hard that some counties should have four members, and others, not much inferior in extent and popu lation, only two. To remedy this, he proposed one addi tional member for the counties with above one hundred thousand inhabitants—namely, Berkshire, Buckingham shire, Cambridgeshire, Dorsetshire, Hertfordshire, Here fordshire, Oxfordshire, and Glamorgaashire. Allowing for the various alterations, the whole effect, said his Lordship, would be this suppose five new members given to Ireland, and five to Scotland, the whole number of Representatives for the United Kingdom would be 627, making a diminution below the present number of 31 Members. There were 24 towns which were to send two Representatives, including parts of the Metropolis; 26 towns, which were to send one Member; 62 Members for Counties in England ; one for a Borough, and one for a County in Wales. In addition to these, there were five new Members for Ireland, and five for Scotland. The number thus given was to be subtracted from the total diminution, and it would leave the diminution of the present number of the House only 21 Members. Other changes had been judged necessary ; but all in strict accordance with the principle of the Bill, and in order to give more complete effect to that principle. For instance, leases of £lO and upwards, for any term exceeding 60 years, are to vote for counties. Beneficial leases at small rents, where large fines have been paid, are to give a vote where the interest is above £5O a year. Occupiers of warehouses and counting-houses are also to have the franchise; and freemen in expectancy who would have been admitted on coming of age, or on the expiration of their articles, are also to have the franchise. There are also some new regu lations respecting Returning Officers, and additional plat. a for polling in boroughs, for the sake of preventing tumults. In his examinations of the opinions on the bill, he found that of the representatives of 17 large counties, 27 had voted for, and only seven against the bill. This list of counties in cluded Yorkshire, Devonshire, Kent, Surrey, Somerset,' Norfolk, Stafford, Essex, Hampshire, Lincolnshire, Glou• cestershire, Worcestershire. and Warwickshire. In the list of the members for the large towns, he had the same reason l to be satisfied with the result. He took 22 large towns, one of which (Colchester) had only one member in the house at the time the votes were taken ; and out of that list, contain ing 45 members, he found that 39 had voted for the mea sure, and only six against it. Among these towns were London, Westminster, Southwark, Liverpool, Bristol, Nor wich, Nottingham, Leicester, Preston, Exeter, and Col chester. Of 81 members, to whose opinion the right bon. gentleman, with somewhat of a reforming eye, had looked for protection, as expressing the sense of the people, 66 had voted in favour of the measure, and only 15 against it. After a speech of two hours, he sat down amidst loud cheers. General GAscovx E then moved, that it should be an in struction to the Committee, to continue the former number of 658 members, in which he was supported by a very elo quent, argumentative, and comprehensive speech of Mr. SADLER, who considered the proposed diminution as mon strous and unjustifiable ; and in support of this idea gave a history of Parliament, and of the progress of the system of Representation. Lord ALTHORP replied to Gen. GASCOYNE and Mr. SADLER, justifying the expediency of the reduction in num ber, and conjuring all the friends of the measure to oppose the proposition. Lord STORMONT considered the Bill a tissue of errors, and maintained that the amended draft was a new measure, quoting Jon MILLza as his authority. General DUFF, Mr. FRROUSON, Lord LOUGHBOROUGH, and Col. WOOD spoke on the same side. On a general cry for adjournment, it being one o'clock, Mr. HUNT •moved to that effect, and Lord ALTHORP assenting, the House adjourned the debate till this day. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.-EICLUSIVE. FOR THE STAR. PARIS, SUNDAY MORNING. Slil+4 am sorry to say that the assemblages of people yesterday evening were much more numerous than the day before ; and their demeanour was such as to render the in terference of military force necessary, or, at least, the au thorities thought so. Upwards of 5,000 were collected upon the Place du Greve, the Place du Chatelet, and other popu lous parts of Paris, in appearance workmen—but in place a work, this time, they demanded the Republic ! Strong de tachments of Hussars, and troops of the line, as well as the national and municipal guards, were on duty in different parts of Paris, as well as strong bodies of troops in reserve, stationed in the Place du Carousel, the square of the Tuilleries, &c. Some of the national guards were rather roughly handled, for they do not seem to be in favour, as they were generally received with cries of "A bas la gore Nationale,"—throw them into the river—while the cries 01 " Vive la ligne" were heard as in the days of July. As do people would not disperse at the summonses made, they were charged by the cavalry, and many accidents have oc curred, as well as several men wounded. And what is most of all to be deplored, is, that the National Guard fired upon their fellow citizens. I do not yet know what has been the result, whether any lives have been sacrificed, for it is dangerous to venture in the tumult; as all good citizens are warned of, by a proclamation just issued by M. Viv I EN, the Prefect of the Police, to keep their houses, and not to increase by their presence from curiosity, the crowd which encumbers the streets. The cavalry charged in the Rue St. Denis, where many acci dents occurred. The Moniteur of this morning regrets those accidents, consequent upon such a state of things; but adds that the Government is determined to do its duty with firmness, and put an end to tumult. The whole of this business has arisen from the trial and acquittal of the young men charged with hatching the republican plot. Last night, there were repeated discharges of musketry heard in the direction of the Place du Greve; but the result is not known yet. The rappel was beating to arms all yes terday evening ; and the same has taken place again to day ; but the attitude taken by the Government, and the immense force displayed, will, no doubt, have the effect of quelling any further attempts to disturb the public peace.— No doubt the republican party is gaining strength daily; vast numbers of the middling class of people seem to wish for " a cheap government,"—such as that in the United States of America, and they push their pretensions very tar indeed. Yesterday, at the closing of the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, no mention was made of a sitting for Monday : it is therefore generally supposed, that there will be only one more sitting—on Wednesday—(though the Messager says Tuesday) when the King will close the Session in person, by proroguing the Chamber, prior to its dissolution, which will take place, as soon as all the electoral business is arranged. This day, Paris looks like a city besieged : nothing is to be seen but soldiers moving about, and aids-de-camps gal loping in all directions. You will hear from me by next Ipost ; when I hope to be able to say, that tranquillity is re stored. Every one here is indignant at the fate which awaits the Italian patriots. i lam in baste. Yours, truly, J. L. Another private ietter to the STAR OFFICE says: " 1 hays jnat come from the Paleis de Justice. AU the prisoners havo been acquitted and eat at liberty. There is a great croIN and cries of " Vise la Republique !" ANOTHER ACCOUNT. We have had, fur the last few days, the moral of disturbanceA at Paris. Mobs hare assembled ; windows broken ; lanterns cut dot n, and streets left in darkness at night. Cries have been uttered of • VI% : la Ripublique,' and M. Casimir Perier has been obliged to res nt to the Hotel de Ville to pacify the crowd. You will ask sue, why is all this? I will tell you. Let me, however, first of all, protest spins: the violence of these proceedings. None but scourdrels will break win dows, and none but thieves will cut down lanterns. I hate the dictation ofa mob as much u I loathe the divation of a tyrant ; there is as much tyranny in one as the other, with more grossness. But though I Fay thus much of the violence of these proceedings ; I must not allow you to confound in one mass all the persons who have so assembled—nor mit you to imagine that all are either scoundrels or thieves. No, no— the reason for these proceedings ii, that the mass are not satisfied— that the people are not contented—that the prosecutions of the press— the seizure of journals—the opening of letters at the post-office-0x trial of republican patriots for their opinions—the deterntination of the Goverment to join in the oppression of Belgium, and to obtaio peace at all prices and at all hazards, have all occasioned great uneasiness, dissatisfaction, and alarm; and the restlessness and want of confidence which ouch measures and policy produce occasion this ebullition of feeling—these processions, mobs, and cries of" Vice la Republique !" The Moniteur represents these prove d. ings as wholly unimportant. Then why notice them ? Why call out the Nationsl Guards to put them down ? Why patrol the streets and disperse islets force the groujws ? The fact is, that the intentions of the parties are (with few exceptions) innocent, and even praiseworthy You must not suppose that they wish to pillage, or riot, to create dis turbances, or endanger the public peace; but as M. Casimir Feria seems to imagine that the calmness of the last few weeks implies acquiescence and approval, they meet together to convince the well. meaning, but erroneous-judging Minister, that the people are deter mined that the revolution shall march, and that they will require to be put in possession of the Republican institutions they were so faithfully promised in July, 1830. You need not, however, be alarmed about these assemblages ! The leaders would be the first to arrest any person who dared to disturb the public peace. They are intended as a warn ing to the Minister, and are meant to impress him with the same fact as thot intended to be conveyed by the verdict of the Jury, to which we have already referred, viz. " that France will not submit to be deprived ' of the republican institutions which she claimed, when she consented to the establishment of an elective Monarchy." ITALY. VENICE, APRIL 9.—The patriots of Central Italy have been deposited in the dungeons which formerly served the Tribunal of the Inquisition ; they have been divided, and all are in separate cells, with the exception of General Zucchi and three others, who are subjects of Austria; the other pri soners will be shortly sent to their respective States to be tried. Already the Duke of Modena has sent here one of his agents to claim the twenty-seven victims which belong to him. SPOLETO, MARCH 30.—The greater part of the Pa triots, commanded by Sercognani, have this day abandoned their arms and the tricoloured cockade, and taken their de- parture for Marna, escorted by Captain Maceroni, who be fore the rebellion commanded this place. To-morrow it is expected the remainder of the rabble from Terni, hitherto under the command of Sercognani, will do the same. The military commission instituted at Medena, the 4th of February, 1831, and restored to vigour by the Proclamation of the 20th of March following, has, by its sentence of the 28th, condemned to the pain of death, with confiscation of property, Guiseppe Brevini, Antonio Giacomozzi, and Luigi Adani, all three ex-pioneers, accused of being assembled with the patriots on the 3d of February ; and the following night, in the house of Ciro Menotti, to execute the design of overthrowing the legitimate Government, by the arrest of the Prince and the murder of a past of the ministers, and of being opposed, with arms to the agents of the public force, to arrest them, and with having killed several. The condemned were recommended by the commission to the clemency of his Royal Highness the Duke of Modena, who, viewing the extenuating cis cum stances, has granted them their lives, and commuted their punishments to 12 years at the gallies, in consideration that it was proved, when set at liberty by the rebel govern ment, they constantly refused to serve it in any • manner ; that in fact they were not engaged in its service ; that they had not followed the rebels in their flight ; that they had not concealed themselves ; end that they had remained peaeeable at Modena, from the arrival of the Austrian troops, and unto the moment of their arrest. The Ducal rescript terminates thus :—" But, as we grant this grace, solely in order to show a difference between those who, probably, by the quality of their persons and their education, may be supposed to have been entirely ignorant of the true end of their an spiracy, and those who, by their rank, their education, and their intelligence, may have rendered themselves guilty of the crime of conspiracy and rebellion, against their legiti mate sovereign, and with regard to whom it is impossible to admit the excuse of ignorance and error, we warn the mili tary commission, charged to judge the outlaws, that with respect to all others, authors or accomplices of an attempt so horrible, our will is, that it be proceeded in with all the rigour of the laws, and we announce, that all recommenda tion to our clemency will be of no avail, and will be re jected." POLAND. WARSAW, APRIL s.—Among the prisoners taken in consequence of the defeats of Generals Geismar and Rosen, are several of high rank and distinguished families—as Prince Shakoweki, Baron Sacken, Count Medem, General Lavendowski, Colonel Sokotow, Lieut.-Col. To. hits, Majors Levicki and Oloeznski, and 120 other officers. The whale of General Geismar's baggage has been taken. The large Russian magazines formed at Minsk and Siedlec ha.e fal len into our hands, as the enemy had not time to burn them. The loss of the enemy since the 25th of February, accord ing to tho accounts of prisoners, reports of the surgeon general and other documents which have been taken, ap pears to be 50,000 men in killed, wounded, and prisoners. The whole of our loss, on the contrary, does nut amount to 10,000 men. Many of the Russian prisoners enter int.) our regiments, and declare that they are gli.d to have fallen it.to our hands. The wounded Russians are treated with all p: a sible care. Warsaw is full of prisoners. The last hope of the Russians depends on their Guards, I.n lit is not impro bable that they are by this time well beaten. The news from Warsaw, received by Official Gazette of Berlin, is up to the sth of April. The Poles prosecute with ardour the course of their success. On the 4th of April, the head-quarters of Skrzynecki was at Sienica, a small city where Marshal Diebitsch had established his quarters, after the battle of the 25th. The following is the report of the Generalissimo, dated from Sienica, sth April : • " The Polish advanced posts were yesterday at Boimie, beyond Kaluszyn, and advanced in the direction of the south into Stoczek, Miastkow, and Garwoun. The columns of Diebitsch put in movement of retreat on the aid. of Wieprz; and it is said that their advanced guards are already beyond that river. Up to the moment when the report was written, we had made prisoners Prince ' scbachoffshoc, aid-de camp to the general of that name, a ' captain of cavalry, several officers, and some hundred men, of different Russian regiments; besides 800 horses, several hundred stand of arms, waggons, and baggages, had fallen into our hands. 1
