Mr. Scarlett has withdrawn his " Poor Bill," — he says until next session, but for the credit of his own humanity, we hope he will never attempt its revival—we have no fears as to its success, for the principles it advocates are so entirely alien to every feeling of justice or consideration for those who 4. have not where to lay their heads," that the House of Commons must be entirely lost to that identity that it ought to evince equally with the Poor us with the Rich, before it can give its assent to a measure which would be opposed to every lau dable sentiment. It is true, an Act of Parliament may deprive the owner, of a freehold estate, and j.tst so much injustice would be done to the poor by passing Mr. Scarlett's Bill. It may be expected that we notice that "Moun tain in Labour" the Agricultural Report—the Com mittee trace agricultural distress to three causes — the bounty of Providence in our recent plentiful harvests, the cessation of the demand occasioned by War Contracts, and the resumption of Cash Pay ments—they say nothing of the excessively heavy War Taxation under which the Nation labours, through a bad Administration, in the seventh year of profbund peace ; they are silent on the existence of leases taken when wheat was at an unnaturally and villanously high price, and which must of ne cessity be ruinous to the farmer when such price could no longer be obtained—these points they have not found worthy of notice, and they conclude without intimating any practical relief whatever We understand that every member of the committee, who can be fairly considered as connected with the farming interest, voted against the report, but mi nisters had taken too good care, in the formation of the Committee, to hazard a majority on a vote which should have ascribed the existing distresses to their true cause—the immense debt and the lavishness of Government. The Coronation is certainly to take place on the 19th of July—the question as to the necessity of a Coronation at all, is decided by eighteen months having e!apsed, since the accession, without it—the impropriety of so immense, so unnecessary, so pro fligate an expenditure, at a moment of such extreme distress, it needs no arguments from us to enforce.— As to the question of her Majesty's right to partici pate in the ceremony, we do not pretend to decide, but crowned or not, we do assert that in the hearts of her people she is quite as muck their Queen as her ltoyol Consort will be their King, even after the gorgeous ceremony of the approaching coro nation— _ . The man of independent niind. Can look end laugh at a' that.—" LAST NIGII7"S PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS. HER MAJESTY NOT TO BE CROWNED. On the question respecting the bringing up of the Re port on the Duke of Clarence's Annuity 13111, Gen. FERGUSON asked whether any arrangements had been made for the Crowning of the Queen ; whether the Rights of her Majesty bad been considered ? The Marquis of LONDONDERItY replied, that the cue had been considered,and that no directions had been given for the Crowning of the Queen ?—She,was not to be Crowned ! General FERGUSON enquired whether any comma nieation had been received from her Majesty on the snb ject ? Lord LONDONDERRY said he had replied in the affirmative three or four days ago. In reply to a question nether the Law Officers had been duly consnited, his Lordship expressed his astonishment that the vigilauce of her Majesty's Lau Officers had slept so long. There was somewhat of mystery, if not of inattention in the con duct of the Queen's Law Officers. Mr. DEN.IAN said, they interfered when it was known that the Coronation was to take place. Lord LONDON DERR Y remarked, that the subject was one for the exercise of the Crown's prerogative—whether the Queen should be crow ned or not. The Queen's memo rial, however, was now before the Privy Council. After an extended conversation on the Bill, ND. ULNMAN stated, that, in reply to the Queen's com• munication, an answer had been received from Ministers, unit that her Majesty had this duy rrjointd to such reply by praying to he heard by Counsel iu support of her right before the Pi ivy Council Lord LONDONDERRY said that he had not expressed any decisive optii ttt un this question to the House, when it was likc ly to be p . din a serious form, because it ill u was right th..t the judAinent should be given in the most solemn form. ELECTION or SIIERIFTS.-Mr. Crook having declined the contest, when a poll was demanded, the opposition has been merely nominal, therefore, at the clo s e of the poll, last evening, the numbers were—Garratt 1590—Venables 1360—Crook 506. When it is considered that no person can have a Blank on the 10th JULY, even if their Tickets are drawn, but that they are then certain of some of the Great Prizes of 1;24,000, £16,000, and various £2,100, &c. which are then sure to be drawn, or that they may receive for every Ticket (not drawn) £l7, for a Half, £9 4s. Quarter, 4'4 12s. Eighth, £2 6s. and every Sixteenth may receive £1 3s. 6d. advantages nut likely to occur again, the present great demand is readily accounted for ; and as every original Ticket is on sale, the number is so limited that an immediate application is requested, to pre ventldisappointments. J. & J. SIVEWRIGHT, Contractors. The second regiment of Bucks yeomanry have received orders to march on the 1 tith of July to attend the coronation. Their otll:rs of service were made on the recommendation of the Marquis of Buckingham. J. Junes, Esq of Ystrad, has announced himself a candidate to represent the borough of Carmarthen, in the room of the Hun. Mr. Campbell, now Lord Cawdor. EXTRACTS FROM "MY NOTE BOOK.'

" If principles gainer principles be set, Then let those principles be fairly met : I mean sound principles,--the House will see That principles, in which we all agree, Are not like principles that mire a doubt: Now, sir, a man may often turn about, And take up principles oppos'd to those: But what's the consequence ? no mortal knows, This, sir, I think, does certainly embrace The great and leading festure, of the case. The honourable member has no right A premature discussion to invite Open a Bill drawn up with so much care, And now in progress, as we know, elsewhere : 1 deprecate the (sinew he ha. pursuit As calculated only to delude. Why, sir, we know that inferences just, Are drawn from premises when well discuss'd ; Some measures may be censur'd in detail, But the (min principle will never tad, When, min the proposition, comes that sense Which proves the necessary consequence.

Lest factious men who violate the law, My sentiments and motives sliou*d malign ; There is not from the Tiber to the Rhine, Or, thence again to the Boristhenes, .
