Yesterday the Anaiiversary Meeting of the 13 , itisli and Foreign Bible Society took at ti,e Frei-ma sons' Tavern ; Lord TLIC;Nt401:111, in the Chair. Toe treat tc.not, which was fitted up for the roception of many more than the floor could contain, was crowdre to excess at twelve o'clock: The Report was read uy the Chairman and four Gentlemen, who found :s ne cessary to relieve each other in the 'abet r of :' is two . 'hours bnsiness. TF•ey were frequently ..* by the • : pplause of the Meting. The Report dy. scribed .•te flourishing state of .the SacietT• and the nom= on expedition with which religious knowledge was disseminated, through its zeal and activity. The spirit of peace had poured open barbarous nations a rich flood of moral and intellectual advantages. Christian knowledge was now confined to no coun try. The African, the Asiatic, the Hottentot, all traced the finger of GOD upon the" page of Scrip ture, and rejoiced in the contemplation of a sub limer authority than that which presented itself in sun, moon, and stars. Mahometanisin itself was sink ing before the beam of the Christian faith, and (lure was a recent instance of its infleence in the person of a Mahometan, who, at 40 yean of age, learned to read, that he might study the Scriptures. The In dian no longet seized h;, tomahawk when defence was unnecessary. The principle of revenge was lost -in the maxims of brotherly love with which the pages of the Bible abounded. The Report also stated, that already upwar4.0f.1.700,000 Bibles and Testaments had been distributed, and that the most liberal con.: trihutions had lksen'tinde. Mr. Wzr axatoilcit congratnlated the Meeting upon the very favourable Report that had lust been read. The Bishop of SALISBURY also spoke of the great satisfaction which the state of the Society was calcu lated' to create, and of the benefits derivable from the'diffusinn of Christian knowledge. The Bishop of Rocnasvxa desert the effects of the zeal of the Society in the mos c fluent manner. Several others of the Members spoke, after which, thanks having been voted to the CILRITIDSII, &c. &c. the meeting separated. PARLMMENTART PROCESDRIGS. HOUSE OF LORDS, MAY 7.

The petitioner Mutated himself as totally igno rant of thempulatm hp at against b, and stated 4 that on his denng all knowledge* them ua tuna. cumstances of this caw, fig tlie power vested ;n tie Sheriff' Substitute seemed to have been exerri.ed by him to a most nnjuniti extent. It had origami that the warrant on oirch one of the p• Irma Appre hended at Glasgow had t,ken up, did not even contain his Christian name, nor an cia.ct description of his place of abode. Mr. Fl NI, y that with respect to the cha racter of - tbe'petiti.m.vr, he (nlO .ipt, say any thing, nor had he made any inquiry. AL. ;9 the :imam. dy e non wb' j) he v' at sust , speed: in 174. Cs:rise tame, upon iZ ry , it ter. unity ' t that this was that fact. lsot he slit derstood that-by the law t'f Scotland this was no ob jection to thelegality of the %want, if the descrip. lion which it contained was sufficient to identify the individual. With respect to the treatment 4vhich the misfortunate persons arrested at Glasgow had met with, he had made very particular inquiries, and it turned out that all the statements contained in the petitions presented to the House on this subject, were totally false. or exceedingly miarepresented. The rooms were not damp ; there was no want cf food ; in short. besides the mere circumstance 8f con finement, there was no hardship whatever as to the situation of those persons. Every precaution was taken by the Magistrates to accommodate these un f.,rtiroate persons in the best way that circumstances would admit ; and he could assure the House, thst uut of 25 persoos committed. 23 or 24 were :seem*_ modated with the mast comfortable apartments that could-be wished lot;• in no disagreeable a situation. 'He need not detain-Nei:House tai go through all the *negations contained itihe petit' ; hut if he were !n . do so, he could *AA - y dispose of every part of it. :Ma was there a more.exaggerated picture uf pri vations than drat whieb it contained. He wonde:c3 very much that the Hong urable and Learned Getele man should have been so very much i :Tose.' on as to the. facts. Mr..l. P. GRANT having fately vi.ited that port of Scotland where the events alluded to had taken place, felt himself calkd upon to bear testimony on the subject. As to the allegations contained in the petition of the person named Weir, he bold . only say that he had himself spoken with that person, who repeated to him the same statements that were con tained in his petition, and that he (Mr. Grant) had *very reason to believe it to be true. While on .the Iloof he thought it his duty to esamute the plies sv4reie these persons had been confined, and he mutt say, that although the gaol of Glasgow was certainly a very elegant building, and kept in good order, yet he found that the statements of the petitioners were generally borne out by the facts. He did not mean, however, to impute any blame to the Magistrates of Glasgow, further than this, that whi:e the gaol was crowded with these unhappy persons, be thought they ought to have visited the prison more frequently than t'iey did. Upon the whole, he thought, that in this respect there was a grievance to be complained of. As to the law of Scotland, if it were the law io take up perwns without havingtheir names distinctly stated, he could or 4 say i.e never heard it latf u ie. But it was not the • Fiveri Scotland. The law of Scotland contained no such monstrous proposition. Mr. BRAGGE BATHURST said, if there was eily irr e gularity in the warrant, the Sheriff was bound to answer for it. On . a iecapitulatiiin of the real facts as to the treatment of the prisoners, as compared with the statements in their petitions, it was found that these statements were grossly exaggerated. The petition was then ordered to lie on the table. Sir SAMUEL ROMII.LY moved, that the pe tition be printed. and contended, that the answer given on the subject ought not to be deemed satis factory by the House—(Hear, hear.) 'lire Hon. Member then restated some of the strtngest circum stances of this case, and another which he brought before the House some time ago,' and ev e ressed his surprise that the Honourable Member ft i Glasgow could eulogize the Sheriff substitute, who on heating the mau declare the whole charges to be fads-, told him, that this denial of his looked ersemely like guilt—(Hear, and laaiglaer,) and then reminded him to gaol till next morning. It thins appeared, Oat One of those persona had lieu taken by i. istake, mist the r other on evidence, which it was said could riot be disclosed. How could it be ..iid, that the law of Scotland was such, that warrants might be granted with the insertion of the sirname only ?If that were the case, several of his Honourable Friends near him were not safe, for the Campbells and the 'Mackin. cosh's were very common names in Scotland—(Untie, ands laugh.) the Honourable w ait heard s e r l otly l4 i i n ned m i ak tha ins t his charges, but the house seemed little disposed to 0 a li o ß u r A , G b icGE Memberß .Twl listen to the answer which he had to make on behalf ~f the Magistrates whose characters were attacked. The Sherif substitute declared in his memorial that he bad used the words imputed to him, and this was attested by two pencils velio were present. He i haublitit unfair that thtt of Weir should new l e t be reifated. The ins HI - jiven in the warrar: steted, ( tbat he lived in' a'te riain court lending out of Haleiaton-street, and Iti m eteelared that viers was no iitluiriaerson of the tai e name lived . there. 1: vras.uot then very unsaft‘:"he should have thought, to act on such information, whatever mii.,llt be the law of Scotland on the stit , j,et. Mr. FINLAY insisted th:it the facts were etagge rated in the . petition. Lord BINNING got up to defend the Sherlr r,t Lanarkshire, but, being told that he was out men . . ' ' .
