The present, past, and future were not to be confounded. '1 he Chana in the Dth Amicle says, that property ire inviolable, not :kali be inviolably. It was not a new regalia- UM: established for the future; it was an eternal principle of all ages, and the first consequence of that principle Is, that the pro perty of the emigrants could not have been c.onfi , cated. The rooore of public interest ' which would seem to bear is such manner as rot to lead to the acknowledgment of the validity of the sales of =Whetted property, tends to quite • different tonclusion. In 1814, self named senators pretended to treat with their Sovereign, instmd of receiving him as subjects. They maintained that the revo!ution was not tennioated, but was to begin again, if their pro. party was cot assured to them and theirs. They wan behaved, every thing was ranted them, yet the It:volution new meneed a year af.er. Every bo dy knew how easy it was at times to tenons property to its proper owners. (Agitation.) The detainers of it prepared to deli,er it up, not thinking that aught else could be done order the legitimate government. They wore about themselves to meet the transaction. Alm ! nothing was then more easy than to succeed; there was nothing more to be done than to let things work for themselves: the business would ban proceeded on all sides, anti the traces eveo of that evil which they were now called upon to heal would have been effaced. We should not have had to combat that pretended impossibility of which the Government speaker talks. Impossibility is always en 0i1... ens itsie,,,ow Nothing so possible to weakness I every thing is to the Oovernmer.t which teems its strength, and which oepends epos justice. Who were in fact these acquirers, whose revolt was apprehended? They are scattered, and without influsece ; they could not sell, at the price of the patrimonial property, those estates of which they are the detainers, and on the greater part of which ?night be inscribsd, as on the patter's field, the ward 'Amide:no," the price of blood. M. Duplessis-Grenadan coos:bided by merely voting for the ameodmcnteof M. do Lesardieres. 31. de SALASV.RRY spoke in favour of the project of law. N.

The speaker concluded by voting against the project of law. 111. de VAUSLAKc then rose, and defended his conduct, and said that Marra and other pamphleteers of the day, anathematised him, and the terriOle words—" We want the head of Vett:dace, with out write , all is lost," was uttered near the Legislative Body. Several Members here called for the debate to be odjourued for the morrow. It therefore broke up at half-past five. DUTCH PAPERS.

I' -- - - - SOCIETY Jbr the RELIEF' of DISTRESSED WIDOWS 1 1 IW TUE FIRST /MONTH Of THEIR WIDOWHOOD. A say numerous and highly respectable assemblage of Ladies and Gentlemen, Interested in the formation of this S sciety, took place yesterday, at Willis's Rooms , St. Jammis-sqoare. J•IITS S , Esq. in the Chair. The Cm•tieet•en observed, that he was instructed to state briefly the object fee which that Meeting had been convened. It was teestabeish pennonently a Society which had already been in active existence for more than a year. Its intentions, which he thought noticed only to be mentioned to receive their commemln don, were to relieve the pew and destitute widows, at that awful moment when they were bereft of all earthly dependence—when the, were deprived of that helpmate to whom they hail looked up foe consolation and support. The very character of a widow—the very name excited emotion, and came hone to every bosom. In other cases their sympathies were excited through the means of their imagination :—those who were called upon to relieve the distresses of the poor, had co-: probably experienced the meshed fate of ; were i poverty those who mplored to have demmuision for the dare, had not dratit the bitter draught of slavery. But who in it who had not in their own families suffered the privation of the husband or the wife, or seen the lamentable effects attendant upon the loss of the mother of a family, or the ' protector and support of its existence's No degree of virtuous principle, no degree of virtunes conduct, or provident foresight, mild guard against the consequences of this melarchely bereave ment, which he thought above all others pre-eminently entitled to ,the compassign of the charitable and humane. No character in that sacred volume, which contains all that we see bound - to reve rence or obey, is so much hell up to our imitation as the protestor of the wi.low and the ratite-elms. No species of goad work, no acts of frith or of love, are so much rewarded in promise by the Omar Dispenser of Justice and Mercy; while. on the contrary, no crime is denounced with such fearful threat* of vengeance, as the oppression of those whom it has pleased the Almighty to ebamen by this de privation. St. James the Aposele, too, had summed on the whole dpty of is Christian in these few emphieic words—" To visit the fatherless and the widows in their aflliclon, and keep yourselves unspotted from the world"—ineluding, in one comprehen+ive in junction, all the duties to Dori aid to our neighbour, in visiting the orphan and the afflicted. It is not the sending, but that purer and rarer instance of .elf-denial—the netual visiting in person the abodes of the wretched and bereaved, that the Apostle inculcates upon this occasion ; and he thought if any thing more than another excited his admiration in the proomed intentions of this Society. it was this going personally—thin practice' exemelitication of the inspired precept. It was the plan of this Society to employ. in these visits, that sex whose cloqueoce was above all others the most tender and impressive—to impart the consolation of the sympathetic brew, of the melting eye. of the tenderly compassionate hand, at that very moment when theafflimedaremosom want of theirsupport, when the wonted is still bleeding—at the very moment when the being— " Close twisted with the fibres of the heart," has been snatched from them for ever. It may be said, why should society be instituted for this purpose? Can they not go to the workhouse? What is the use of this temporary assistance? Ile would answer, why do you inflate the longs of a man in a state of drowning? Not to supply the vital sir, but to restore the animal functions—to enable him hereafter to use them himself. So it is with this Society, not alone to afford a temporary relief, but so to cherish and invigorate the distressed, as to errahle them to bear up against their misfortunes, and make use of the means the Almighty has put in their power for the future support of themselves and their families. It :mist be obvious to every feeling mind, that at the period he epoke of, the emailest relief was of the greatest ins. portance ; for it was not alone the death—dreadful as that may stem—there was generally a long sickness, tne savings of for mer industry spent, their all sold of pledged, in debt to tile landlord, a something due to the tradesmen who might he evolently give them credit, and et last the dearly beloved object cut off, leavings widow, perhaps with five children, perhaps. soon again to become a mother. burdened with all the consequences end misfortunes of a tedious ill ness. !The eloquent speaket here related en affecting tale of re cent end sudden distress, which had that day came to his know ledge, but which our limits prevent us front detailirg. It related to the family of a OICTitOT:0101 Artist, who had by his death been left in a state of melancholy distress. ] Here, he said, was a ease in point; but how many such cases would never be heard of at all, unless there wet some extablistimeat to bring them to light 1 The Speaker then -aided to the aOhorrence with which minds imbued with moral and religious sentiment. recoiled from the vice and in dolence of a parish workhouse, and drew an affecting picture of the sufferings of a mother when deprived by its regulatiolls of the beloved pledges of her affection. If it he asked, how can the Society do good to such a condition, he would answer, the report tiotild show many such eases effectuillr relieved ; for it was not alone the actual toying of alms, which in such cases benefited the suffirer •' it was the sympathy, the support given to the mind—the e courage derived from feeling they-were not wholly forsaken—the feinting nut the means of future support—the tecommendation to service—the giving a character--all theme. peculiarly the objects of this Society,enabled them to render much noire effectual aid than any that could possibly be afforded from any temporary relief. however ample. Thu+ they would be able to make the widow oncemere a use ful member of seetety--once more make her bestir herself, and per. severe In honest industry, while the noble and patriotic exertions of Mr. Brougham, and his !knowable Friend near him (Sir James hi achintcohn would relieve her from all fears upon the subject of her thildren's education : she would see stem enlightened in mind, and improved in morals and in manners—she would meet them to cheer her at night for tie toils and too hies of the day, to reward her exert im.e, to console her uoder her eftlictions ; and though "Na more for him the cheerful hearth shall burn, Or busy housewife ply her evening care— No children run to lop their sire's return, Or climb his knee, the envied kiss to share:" still she would derive the sacred satisfaction of having earned, by the perfonitance on her duty, a title to unite with her lost compa nion in the abodes of peace lied blies. It tees by the subdivision of mind and labour, he cbeetver, that all greet works hod been brought to perfection. In clecke and watcees, one made spring+, another the wheels—so it was with thorny ; the more you sub divided the exercise of its benevolence—the more numerous the handmaids., be would call it, of British bemevolence, the more per feet would be the work He concluded by exhorting the ladies who had in such a praiseworthy manner lent their assistance to this Society, to continue their good offices. They would learn, that blessed is she who giveth as well as she who received] ; and though they might have to enceunter painful objects, a. d be plated in affecting situations, he trusted they would still remember, that it was more grateful in the eyes of OW, to go to t‘ the house of mourn ing than the house of joy"--to visit tee retreats of the wretched than the bowers of pleasure—and they would learn to be satisfied with their own lot—learn to mutilate the blessings of their condi tion, arid to deserve them. The Rev. J. MORRISON then read the Report. It stated that thirty-vie widows and their families had been relieved by the Society during the last yeer, and that eight families were now mainly eupportrel by meene whi ch the Committee had devised. The expenditure had been 11151. ; the donative, and subscriptions 1291.; leaving a trilling baherce clue te the freasurer. Sir C.'llosTEll, in moving that the Report be adopted, said, that it gave hint great satisfaction to be present at the forniation of a Society which promised to do so much good among that truly helpless class of the community, the destitute widows; and he was sure it had only to be known to gain the approbation and amietaree of the British public. ff e had bets one of the Committee for the Relief of the Destitute and Houselese; and he had then experienced with what readiness the whole town came forward, when it was known that distress really existed ; indeed so ample had been the subscription, that he believed there were yet many thousands of it unexpended. In the Illendicity Society, is.d some others, they were liable to suffer ft -mi deceit ; but hote there could be noon—there was no de ceit in death. A Society so noble in its ends could not tail to be supported. They stiould not be dieheartened because they were not able to do all the good they wiehed at once. They should re. collect that the Christian religion itself, though row overepreading the whole earth, was first promoted by A few, in an upper room in Jerusalem. The Rev. J. FLET cut's, of Stepney, seconded the Resolution. He said it was e.xtraordlnary, that among the ten thousand in stances of benevolence is this metropolis, Pilch a plan as the pre. sent hod not been thought of before. He reminded the fleeting of the exprenioo of the Rieman orator—" Bit dot pa cite dui," and showed that it would he both prudent and economical. After some eloquent scriptural alluelons to the charitable visits of our Re deemer to the beds of elelmem and affliction, the Rev. Gentlerhan said be hoped to see this,Sochity send forth its branches to every part of the metropolie. .He lived io the east, where the sun was said to rise; but be tru*ed the sus of their benevolence, though rising in the west, wuM - Bhinsioate their eastern world with its light and splendour. h • Su J. MACKIMTOS in peoposlog the thanks of the Meeting to Lady flernarl o the rents of the Society, said, lie was pre pared to think well of y Ir:citation which had the countenance of his worthy frlet4 Chairman, thirty years of experience having coleinced him *at he was the supporter of every thing which tended to benefit $ll3 fellow-creatures. His support was only valuable front his cenvithen, after due deliberation, that this So ciety was bn h useful Mid necessary. Dr. Chalmers, in one of his ten:ions, had o'usernith that " too much relief cooed t.ot be af forded if it did not erase more suffering than it proposed to re lieve." elk cordially Agreed with that sentiment. A relief which encouraged prodigality, which impaired industry, mad which de. streyed habits of frotality, upon which Providence had wisely ordered it that our tkappiness should depend, never could be ad-' vontageous, and always proved mere perhicious to the object of its bawdy than If he bail beet! lett to struggle through his difficulties, dependent uonn his own resources. It was from a conviction that ;he objects of the Socdety were exempt from this evil, that he now came forward conscletitiouly to give him his support. Their elm quemut Chairman had, flowever, stated its advantages in language hi affecting, so well dlcul.sttd to eecite feeling, sad in,pire ben,. valence, that little rethiained to be advanced by those who followed him. He had truly ;a d justly) characterised the state cf the widow as one of the most enmplicatri calamity—involsing eyrie, physical and mom! WI —severing individual strectioc—brieging in its train pot-arty atterflespeir—fear for their own wants —horror at the idea of the priratioes which may be suffered by their children. It was a calamity Iran which no human being was exempt, and the relief of which tb: Almighty had plead by riligto. , , in the first of human dutles--1 representation of all dm net. No better eulogium could be r .,nnunced upon this Society than the plain and simple stuternest of its success. They had bear,' of the widows and Adders r el ieved, not by dispensing with industry, but by enabling them to remote it, by giving encouragement to Prthirenne, in the mbereise of right priories —the tom toundations of all pettenesd becorolv!oe.

The plan, when completed, will open a display of architecture not disgraceful to that contiguous and magnificent structure, the Bitiqueting House. All idea of a Quay, to resemble the Boulevards of Paris, on the north bank of the Thames, is abandoned. The. Benchers of the Temple having united with the Dike of Northumberland, the obstacles became insurmountable. A meeting took place early in the present week, when it was finally resolved on that the line should take the opposite side of the River, to which there will be no impediment. Colonel Trench will carry his plan at last.—ilfGrniag- Paner.

The eloquert Chairman had observed upon the Tower produced by the subdivi sion of labour ; and he agreed with hint most fully in its opplication to moral duly. Mere inclination and intention were not sufficient. Those who feel, should inform themselves how to do good—they should practise—and, as in all other arts, some to one port, some to another—acquire ingenuity and ul timate perfection. When efforts of charily became too ge neral, they were lost in their own vagueness ; but by par , titular application to single objects they were enabled to corn. pass all their designs. Hod had made a division of labour when he created the sears. To man he allotted the stern, and rigid, and. it might perhaps be thought, sometimes odious duties ; did we not moll - tut that tio peace could be preserved, nor no opportunity even afffirdert or practising our benevolence without their execution. To women were given the Amiable arid beautiful services of life ; they were made the ministers of consolation and mercy ; to them it was given to heal and to comfort, to preserve peace and kind. news, and so exercise rhos; duties, which, far front being ineonsis. tent with modesty or delicacy, cannot be practised without them. The Honourable Herolenian concluded a very eloquent speech, by eulogising the conduct of Lady Bernard. Nothing, he thought, could be more worthy of the conduct of a virtuous widow, than to employ her widowhood in relieving the distresses of those similarly eirentristanced. Other widows who have compassionate natures might, from her conduct, see the difference between deed* and words, and lento that she consoled her own widowhood by con. tinuing the 000 d works of her husband, so as to render his memory deor to all who heard it, as well as those who had the pleasure of knowing him personally. A Res.rlution, returning thanks to the Treasurer, Secretary, die. was then proposed, in a neat speech, by John Lasthope, Esq. and seconded by the Rev. Mr. Curwen. ;Sir James MACKINTOSH then proposed a vote of thanks to the Secretary, for his unceasing labours in behalf of the Society. It was seconded and carried unanimously. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting 'epoxied. `tie observed a very large number of ladies of rank and fashion lending their countenance and support to this jofirrat witty; and we ce-loinly think that there are few mote ens tIRI to the support of the effluent and humane. LAW INTFLLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Tnuasnmr, Fan. 24. IHVAINSTOX W. BUTCHER. This was an action to recover the sum of GL 16s. M. for agency expenses in obtaining a release from the Quarantine Office for the defendant's ship Iris, then in quarantine in Liverpool ;'.3 , boor. Mr. Cam PBE LI. stated, that the plaintiff was a ship-broker liv ing in London, and the defendant was master and owner of a vessel called the Iris, which, in September. 1823, was in quarantine at Liverpool. The plaintiff's clerk, having Ott/UROD to f'O to the Quarantine Office, found there the papers belonging to the his, but no person had applied far the release he therefore. as was customary, applied for, and having obtained it, the plaintiff sent it down to the defendant, and the vessel was released in consequence. Application was made to the defendant for payment, who reynised to discharge the bill, but had not at the time cash in his pocket. Subsequeftly, however, he refused to pay, alleging that the plan- Off had not been employed by him to do the business. But Mr. Campbell contended, that as the business was done by the plaintiff for the benefit of the defendant, and as he bad made a promise to pay. the plaintiff was now entitled to recover. The plaintiff's clerk and brother were then celled to prove the tacit stated by the counsel. Mr. Scaltr.sir, on behalf of the defendant, contended that the plaintiff was not entitled to rocover ary thing. The facts were, that ,lr. Itutc:ter, being in town, wrote to Iris agent, Alr. Parker, at Liverpool. requesting him to instruct some person to procure the release of the ship. Mr. Parker accordingly employed a Mr. Lucas, who went to the Custcm House to know if the ship's papers were safely arrived. Having ascertained that they sere, lie, on the saute day, wrote to his agents in town, 31easra. Lading and Co., to apply at the Quarantine Office fur the order of release. When these gentlemen applied, they found that Mr. Swainston bad taken the liberty, without any instructions whatever. to obtain it. This they communicated to the defendant's agent. Now ha (Mr. Sea:lett) would say, that if it were allowed to any person thus to interpnse themselves to do business for any one without authority, then there would be no protection agar et the claims of any prison who should think propel to seek into the circumstances of others in order to make a profit by them. He would allow that the money paid out of pocket by the plaintiff, ought to be paid by the de fendant, but not a shilling was he bound to pay the plaintiff for agency. 31r. Lucas was then called, who proved the facts stated by Mr. Scarlett. Mr. Camenise. said a few words in reply. He admitted the proposition of his Learned Friend, that it would be mischievous to allow persons to interpose to make themselves agents for others without any authority, but still he submitted the phintiff in thia case was entitled to recover, inasmuch as what he had done was for the defendant's benefit, and the defendant had himself subse quently adopted it as his thin, by a promise of payment. The LORD Comte Jcsttet recapitulated the evidence, and said, that if' the Jury thought what the plaintiff did was for the defendant's benefit., sad that a promise of payment bad been made, then they would de. ,1 a verdict for the plaintiff. The Jury iinratdiattly tett:reed a verdict for the plaintiff, for 61.1&. 6d. COURT or COMMON PLEAS, THVIODAY, FEL ■ 1.. C *Gail of itswba ilk es. W. lIUSIKIASON." Before o.e CHILI JUSTICE end Common Jerk:. TOPPI-EWELL V. !MERINO. This was an at:inn brought by the plaintiff, who is the Captain of a West hip, against the defendant, who is a Lieutenant of his Majesty's slrp Semis. for M. the amount of a balance of WI. which the defendant was to pay for his board and passage on board the plaintiff's vessel, as a paasenger from Jentatu to London. The defence was, that the defendant had only agreed to pay M. including board and passage. Several witnesses were called, Captains of West India ships, to prove that the genaral term . tut the passage was bOl., exclusive of wine. On the other head, the defendant called Lieutenant Sullivan, who proved the positive contract tntered into bT the plaintiff, on board the Scrap:a, to carry the defendant to Lnglard for 201. including board. On this evidence the Jury found a verdict for the defendant. SHOEBEIIT v. WILLIAMS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover compensa tion in damages, for the loss he had suffered by a breach of con. tract on the part of the defendant. The facts of the ease were shortly these :—The I.:aintiff being indebted to a person of the name of Beard in considerable sums of money, gave up to a Mr. Still, a friend. a quantity of effects, among which was a picture, said to be by Claude : this picture Mr. Still, the plaintiff's friend, gave into the hands of the defendant, an auctioneer, of the Auction Mart, for the purpose of being put up to sale in one of his auctions, with the express proviso that Mr. Still was to have notice of the sale. This was in May, 1843. The day of sale came on, but the defendant gar , :. no notice. The plaintiff's friend had In consequence no cpport,mity or seeing that it was fairly sold, or to whom. The defendant called s gentlemal of the name of Chalmers, who bought a picture, sup;msed to be the one in question, but his evi dence directly refuted the assertion advanced by the defendant, that he was the purchaser, and no identity was proved. The pictures Mr. Chalmers bought on that day, to the number of fifty, were at present in Scotland, which, with the uncertain description given of it, precluded the possibility of its being produced ; and even if the pic ture in Mr. C. 's hands was the one in question, the defendant had still bri ke hi• contract with regard to the notice, and according to his own rhowing bad not introduced the picture into the auction room till the day of sale, which had not gives it so fair a chance as those that had been viewed oa the preceding day. The picture asserted to be the ohe in gelation, lord to Mr. Chalmers, only pro. duced seven guineias, whereas that belonging to the plaintiff was valued at sixty pounds. Tne question for the consideration of the Jnry was, whether the defendant had in fact at all sold the plaintiff's picture, and if he had, whether he was cot liable for the loss sustained by his breach of contract, in rot giving notice? Upon *onside:at:on of these facts, the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintif.'—Dart.ages fifty guineas, subject however to a deduction of sevea guineas, which had been paid into Court. --- WESTMEATH CASE.--40hA Monaghan, Pat.
