CHARLES KENT'S NEW POEMS. Just published, DR EA M LAN D. With other Poems. By W. CHARLES KENT, Barrister-at-Law. Fcap. Svo., price ss. " The author of 'Dreamlan l' and ' Aletheia' has ,risen to a height so very close to the summit of genius, that he may be commiserates for his inability to grapple with the last peaks of its elevation. There is abundance of talent, a delicate taste, an endless richness and diversity of image, topio, and illusion: the landscape is most luxurious; and the nans:c of verse excellent."—Literary Budget. "Mr. Rent has undelltable meritii—Warm and high-toned feeling, a pleasant combination bf grace and humour, and no small power to individualise. ' Pope at Twickenham' is a cabinet picture. ' Marianne' will commend itself to ail motiers by its gush of parental tenderness, and its acquaint ance with baby wiles and mysteries. Fructidor' shows what Dutch fidelity of word painting the author can master when he tries. His fruit is as vivid and well characterised as if Lance had painted it."—Athemtum. "The Charm of Mr. Keht's poetry, as it is the first condi tion of success to all poets, is that he is in sympathy with his subject and not only with himself; that he is truly poet gild -not egotist. Brit it is by no means his only merit. Ile is a Inas ter of versification. The flow or his verso is smooth and me lodious, and enriched with a copious an'd Ornate vocabulary. 'Shelley at Marlow' is a painting exquisitely delicate. The vision of Shelley with which Mr. Kent presents us is almost perfect. DREAMLAND is a work conceived in a noble spirit, and executed with scholarly taste, frequently with flashes of true poetic inspiration. the Dying Bridegroom' is distinguished by a genuine pathos, which leads us to be lieve that Mr. Kent would succeed eminently in some story of the affections."—The London Review. "Mr. Kent's poems come before the world with the advan tage, not only of an author's name, but of a name already agreeably and musically known in the metrical literature of the day. His 'Malicia' was very favourably received by the public, and has no doubt been the companion of many thoughtful readers who will gladly welcome another volume from his pen. A series of portraits drawn with true poetic sympathy and veneration, The best of all, we think, is that of Scott. There is something in the lines that will remind the reader of the chime of Scott's own Verse."—John Bull. " Verses, many of them extremely tender and harmonious, and all indicating a mind carefully cultured and imbued with elegan t ;, tastes."—Daily News. " Poems of very considerable excellence. Fructidor 'is a very close and vigorous word-painting of an orchard. Mr. Kent's volume is healthy and vigorous in sentiment, correct in composition, and contains many happy touches of true fancy, very gracefully expressed."—The Critic. "The pictures Mr. Kent makes are carefully drawn and effectively coloured. His work is on the whole in good taste. It possesses the undeniable, yet, in these days, rare merit of intelligibility, and is, moreover, very readable."—The Art- World. "We like some of Mr. Kent's minor poems even better than `Dreamland,' He is a real poet, unquestionably, and often versifies with extreme felicity. Of his poetic pow& the `Monody on Lord Strangford ' affords ample proof : while his capacity to make word-music is shown in The Morris Dance, s."--The Press. "It was a conception worthy of a true poet to show the depth of his sympathy for the Great Masters of English Song, by devoting; the outpourings of his Muse to their special illustration. There is not one of the many pictures here collected which is not perfect in all its parts -whether we consider 'he sentiment by which it is inspired, the truth of the local colour, or the beauty of the setting. With a thorough appreciation of character, Mr. Kent combines an admirable descriptive power and a masterly command of most mellifluous verse, so that, while the mind is fully gratified, the senses—so to speak —are equally charmed."— Bentley's Miscellany.

'ACT OF UNIFORMITY AMENDMENT BILL. Lord EBURY rose to move the second reading of this bill, which he considered one of great importance. He commenced by referring to steps he had taken on a former occasion to obtain A royal commission to consider the changes necessary in the liturgy, which for a period of two centuries had remained without alteration or modification. On the first night of the session he intrcduced two bills on the subject of the form of religious worship, but as they had been withdrawn he would not then make further reference than to say that at the proper time he should be perfectly ready to defend them. He was also fully aware of the extreme difficulty and delicacy that surrounded the present subject, especially as the terms of the Act of Uniformity had remained so long without alteration. A.ccordiag to the act as it at present stood, every clergyman appointed to a benefice was called upon to make a subscrip tion that ho would conform to the liturgy, and that he accepted everything contained in the Book of Common Prayer. t ven with respect to the pre sent translation of the Bible, he thought that such a declaration was too rigid, but with respect to the Book of Common Prayer, ho was convinced that if the act had to be passed over again not one of their lordships would be found to vindicate such an enactment. The Bishop of LONDON gave the noble lord credit for his intentions, and admitted that the bill was an improve• ment upon its author's previous attempts at legislation. Ho thought, however, that it was so important a matter to dis turb an act which had existed for two centuries, that he hoped the noble lord would not divide the house upon it. The Bishop of ST. DAVID'S also opposed the bill, but suggested some less objectionable modification in the form of the declaration which the clergy were required to make. Lord LYTTELTQN, whilst not opposed to a revision of the Liturgy, thought the bill of too sweeping a character to receive their lordships' assent. It would be most unwise to abolish the only security a congregation now possessed for the adherence of their clergy to the Book of Common Prayer without providing some substitute. The Earl of SHAFTESBTJRY pointed out the danger of liturgical revision at the present moment, and recommended that the bill should be withdrawn, in the hope that the clergy themselves might be induced to concur in some safe arrangement for giving relief to tender consciences. Earl RUSSELL contrasted the present age, remarkable for inquiry and the exercise of independent judgment, with the period in which these tests were adopted, when men banded together to obtain the emoluments of the Church whilst not believing in the doctrines which she taught. There were many men of Christian piety and zeal who in these days were unable to subscribe to the declaration en forced by this test, and it was a great misfortune that the Church should lose their services. The bill, however, went too far in that it abolished the only standard now existing in the Church by which the clergy were separated from the great body of Dissenters. The Bishop of OXFORD was of opinion that no greater injury could be inflicted upon the Church than to allow the clergy to receive her emoluments without declaring their belief in her doctrines. He had no faith in the assertion that hundreds and thousands of young men were forced into dissent on account of their objection to this test. The noble lord who had introduced the bill was, in fact, trifling with a great subject, and it was a mistake to suppose that after a clergyman had subscribed the test he was precluded from changing his opinions. Full liberty of conscience was allowed him, and if he saw cause to adopt views which were contrary to the doctrines of the Church it was only right that he should resign the office he held in it. After a few observations from the Bishop of SALIS BURY, the bill was withdrawn. The Leases, &c., by Incumbents Restriction Act Amend ment Bill, the Public-house (Scotland) Act Amendment Bill, and the Local Government Supplemental Bill wore severally read a second time. Their lordships adjourned at a quarter-past eight. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. The SPEAEER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Andover and Redbridge Railway—Liverpool Corporation } Water—North-Eastern Railway (Team Valley Extension) 1 —Salford Improvement—Stafford and U ttoxeter Railway —and Tottenham and Hampstead Junction Railway. The following bills were considered and ordered for third reading :—Aberdeen Police, Water, &e.—Glasgow and AsaVel Cheshire Junction Rails ay—and West Riding, null, and Grimsby Railway. The Liverpool Fire Prevention Acts Amendment Bill was read a second time. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented in favour of the bill for superannuation allowance to poor law officers; in favour of the bill for the prevention of fires ; for a reform of the Irish Poor-law, in favour of the Irish Fisheries Bill,. in favour of an alteration of the present m ode of licensing Public Houses, &e. THE PRESIDENCY OF MADRAS. Mr. H. BAILLIE presented a petition signed by 15,000 inhabitants of the presidency of Madras, complaining that the promises held out when her Majesty assumed the ducal Government of the Empire of India had not been fulfilled. The ptition drew attention particularly to the injustice which it was alleged the Nawab of the C ar nage had been treated EDUCATION IN IRELAND. Mr, HENNESSY gave notice that on that day month be would submit a resolution to the house on the subject of education in Ireland. MAYNOOTH COLLEGE. Mr. WHALLEY asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he was prepared to give effect to the recommenda tion in that part of the report of the commissioners ap pointed, in the year 1853, to inquire into the manage ment and government of the College of Maynooth, that " a calendar be annually published by the co llege, stating the names of the several students who have left the college after the completion of the course, and their respective destinations; its alumni at the time alive, and the places in which they were severally performing their functions." Sir R. PEEL said that he was not then prepared to state whether he would give effect to the recommendations in question, but he did not se© why the College of Maynooth should not publish a calendar similar to that of the univer sities of Oxford and Cambridge. THE DEFENCE COMMISSIONERS. In reply to Mr. GREGORY, Lord C. PAGET said that in the abkence of the Secre tary of War, he could not state when the evidence taken by those commissioners would be laid on the table. to Tolurno, who came on with a slight lead, waited upon by Bloodhound, The Knave, and Olive Branch, the latter lying next the rails.

CAIRNS PATE Sir pro • rented to her Majesty, praying that she would be graciously pleased to issue a commission to inquire into the working of the law relative to letters patent for inventions. He said that this was a subject of more importance than might at first be considered, and there was no less than 14,000 patents in existence. It was most desirable that every encourage• ment should be extended to inventors by the Government of this country, in order to promote discoveries in science and arts. He considered that the mode of encouragement should be as analogous as possible to the plan of giving an interest to inventors for a certain number of years in their inventions. Having adverted to the alteration in the patent laws o f 1852, he said there were three gro unds of objection to the p r esent state of the law in reference to patents. It was alleged first that too great facilities were offered for taking out letters patent, which led to the multiplication of worthless and trivial patents which operated injuriously in a commercial point of view. The second objection was, that the cost of patents was too large, and the third complaint was that the tribunal before which patent cases were tried was very expensive and un satisfactory from the want of knowledge of such tribunals. He referred to France and the United States of America, which he contended exhibited a more healthy state in regard to patents than this country. The patents granted in this country annually were about 3,000, while in France they wore froth 4,000 to 5,000, and in the United States about 5,000. He argued that there should be considerable facilities afforded to inventors, notwithstanding the ob jections that were urged against the adoption of su ch a course of policy. He alludd to the different inventions which had been made in science and art within the last century, which to some extent was attributable to the en couragement afforded to patents. In his opinion ; what was required was a short and inexpensive mode of investigating the merits of any invention, and calling in and cancelling those patents which had been granted without just ground. He contended that the point to be discussed was the amount of the sum that should be fixed for the price of a patent, which would be sufficiently large to deter worthless in ventions, but not so largo as to operate in restricting bonafrde and valuable inventions. Having called some cases to show the expenses that were incident to the litigation arising out of patent cases, which in the instance of proceedings arising out of an invention for capsuling bottles cost the parties £24,870. There could be no doubt that ordinary juries were very often incompetent to arrive at a correct conclusion in respect to disputed patent cases. In order to remedy th is defect it had been suggested that a jury formed of exparts should be constituted to try cases of this character, but he confessed that he was not satisfied as to such a solution of the difficulty. Again, it bad b een suggested that a ju r y of three or four persons of scientific at tainments, and with minds sufficientlytrained to enable them to direct' their intelligence to considering questions that might arise, should be appointed with the assistance of a judge, to determine any questions arising out of patents. He thought that the subject was on e that required very grave consideration, and he contended that beneficial results would necessarily follow from the appoint ment of the commission for which he moved. Lord STANLEY seconded the motion, a nd argued that the obj ec t proposed would be effected best by allowing patents to be obtained at an inexpensive cost. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL considered that a fair case for inquiry had been made out, and he h o p ed the re sult would be the adoption of such emendat ions of the patent law as would render it in future mo re satisfactor y . _After En some observations from Mr. M . Swan, Mr. G ° and other hon. members, the motion was agreed to. PUBLIC WORKS. Mr. DILLIVYN moved a declaratory resolution, to the effect that it was desirable in all cases where Government proposed to Corwtruct wQrhs, or erect fortifications Or public buildings distinct from those tread) , existing or sanctioned by Parliament, the estimateser the same should be sub mitted for the consideration ()the house in a separate form, and at a separate time, from te annual estimates for cur rent expenditure. Sir G. LEWIS objected Toth° proposal, that, if carried out, an additional class of estbates would have to be pre pared, and that many quesions would arise as to what were "new works or erection? The number of new works was very small indeed; and tic Government bad every de sire to present the estimates it the form moat convenient for discussion ; but he did let think any useful object would be served by complyin; with the suggestions made. The motion was withdrawn, IND CI STR I ALEDU CATION. Col. SYKES moved that ir any system of education by Government aid provision shold be made for teaching in industrial schools; and that with a view to encourage evening study by adult operatves, provision should be mado for supplying a teacher in Each mechanics' institutes as might apply for one. The motion was opposed b) Mr. LO WE, and ultimately withdrawn. THE 'ALLOT. Mr. H. BERKELEY, win had been in active commu nication with his friends--supporters of the ballot on both sides of the house, and who lard availed himself of the tem porary absence of the Speaker from the chair to arrange his plan of action, and take the orpenents of the ballot by sur prise, seeing that many of then were not at their posts, rose on the return of the right hon.gentleman and said—l move for leave, sir, to bring in a bill to cause the votes of Par liamentary electors to be taker by way of the ballot. (Hear, hear.) It strikes me, sir, that the arguments which I have hitherto used are entirely unanswered, and I therefore beg permission, sir, to leave the oestion in your hands. Lord FERMOY seconded the motion. (Cheers and laughter, caused by the knowledge that a large body of the opponents of the ballot were not in their places, and were likely to be thus taken by surprise.) The SPEAKER , put the question that leave be given to bring in the bill, and aloud response of " Aye," mixed with cheers, resounded through the house.

This county meeting, famed for the downfall of Derby favourites, and occasionally for the debut of a good two-yr old, commenced yesterday, unde r very favourable auspices by the arrival of many horses at the town. The weather u nfortunately, changed during the night, and a week ofr bright sunshine was followed by a drizzling rain, which continued to fall at intervals during the morning. The Biennial Stakes were the two leading features Of the day, and the first of them produced one of the finest rages ever seen, ending in the discomfiture of The Knave. The other upset the then favourite for next year's Derby, who wa s defeated most ingloriously. In the Lansdown Trial Stakes, with which the running began, Star of the West was beaten, and at once receded from 30 to 1 in the Derby bet ting to 1,000 to 15, which odds were offered against him without meeting a response. The last race was run in a Scotch mist, rendering it next to impossible to discover the colours of the riders as they passed the judge's chair. The attendance on the stand was rather less than last year, and soon after five o'clock the company went home in hopes of better weather and good sport on the morrow. The Lansdown Trial Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 60 soya added, for 3-yr-olds, 7 st 31b ; 4-yr-olds, Bst 81b ; 5-yr olds and upwards, 9st, with selling allowances.

On rounding the lower turn General Hesse went to the front, and came on with a clear load, followed by Necromancer, Birdhill, and Star of the West, in which way they ran into the. straight, where Necromancer was beaten and the leader was joined by the two favourites.

On Monday, at the Bromley police-court, before a bench of magistrates, the hearing of a case, " Weatherley v. Cowper," came on. It was a sum mons taken out by the prosecutor, charging the defendant with having on a certain day committed a trespass upon Chislehurst Common, in search and pursuit of game. The defendant pleaded first, not guilty ; and, secondly, leave and license. Mr. Gibson appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Pearce (barrister) for the defendant. Mr. Gibson, in opening the case for the prosecu tion, stated that he in reality appeared on the part of Lord Sydney, the lord of the manor of Chisle hurst, who was the real prosecutor, although the summons was taken out in the name of Weatherly, who was one of his lordship's watchers. The de fendant was a young gentleman, 18 years of age, the son of a gentleman occupying a farm on Lord Sydney's estate at Chislehurst, and the complaints occurred under the following circumstances :—On the 30th of April last, about half-past seven o'clock in the evening, the defendant was on Chislehurst Common with three dogs—viz., a greyhound, a spaniel, and a retriever. He carried a stick in his hand, with which he was striking the furze, with the intention, it was alleged, of starting a rabbit ; and he was also encouraging his dogs, who were running about amonst the furze, to all appearance in search of game. At that time a gamekeeper of Lord Sydney's named Norton, came up, when the defendant left the common, and a summons was then taken out for a trespass in pursuit of game under the let and 2d Viet., entitled the Game Act. The opening was supp orted b y a boy named Robert Clark and his uncle Norton. The boy swore that the defendant was in the furze some distance from the bridle road; that he had warned the defendant off the common, but he had refused to leave. In cross-examination he admitted that when the defendant was warned off he did every thing he could to call his dogs off. Norton was called, and swore that he saw the defendant beating the furze, and calling his dogs towards a bush which he had his foot upon. In cross-examination he ad mitted that no rabbit was caught. The defendant had no gin with him. He had quarrelled with the defendant's father some little time previous. He had not used insulting words to young ladies whilst they were with defendant. The magistrates thought Mr. Pearce could not go into those questions, because ho had not given them any notice that he was going to prove malice. The defendant's case w as su pp orted by Mr. Wheden, an uncle of the defendant, who'resided at ill Blackheath. He swore that on the day in defendant to uestion he was very , a nd went w ith the meet the latter's father on his return from tovan He took the dogs with them, and upon arriving ats Chislehurst Common, they sat down upon some log of wood in the road. Whilst there a rabbit started into the road, and the dogs afterwentts do t The defendant went into the furze to c . all h gs the defendant ' off, when the boy Clark, who was,pea,ting the furze said " There goes the rabbit, sir. s aid, " Shall I go after it ?" and upon the boy say ing he might , he p ut his foot u pon the bush. had no sooner d one so than Norton sprang over a hedge, behind which he had been hiding, and ran uP the path towards the defendant, cryiyo u ng at out last in an eager tone of voice, " I have got have I ?" It was contended that that was sufficient evidence to prove that from previous ill-feeling on the part of Norton towards the defendan,,st'er he ",serve had ou t , been" lurking about to find a ground to and that he had laid this trap out of malice and spite. The court having been cleared. The Chairman, after a conference with his brother magistrate of one hour and ten minutes, said it was the opinion of the majority of the bench that the defendant did not leave home with the intention of hunting game, but that he had committed a tres pass within the meaning of the Act of Parliament, and fined the defendant ls. and costs.

THE GREAT FEN DELUG.E. 2118 BARQUE SITLLA. THE ALLEGED 11 1U .RDE.R IN DRURY- An important and influential meeting of the several commissions for drainage of the Fens was yesterday held at the Guildhall, Lynn ; the chair man of the Court of Sewers, the Rev. C. Currie, of Longwood Hall ; Alderman Seppings, of Lynn ; E. R. Marling, Eq., and R. Pitcher , Esq., of Lynn ; E. Edwards, Esq., C.E., A. Saunders, Esq., C,E., of Lynn ; James Walker, Esq., C.E., of Terrington ; J. Patrick, Esq., of Lermans ; the Rev. J. Bram hall, J, Freeman, S. Mulford, and a large number of other influential landowners and occupiers from Marshland. The first business transacted was to receive the report from the deputation to the Home Secretary. L. W. JARVIS, Esq., said they waited upo the Home Secretary at half-past 3 o'clock on Friday afternoon, and after they had go ne most fully into the matter entrusted to them, Sir George Grey ex pressed a wish to have the purport in writing, and he sent him a letter, a copy of which was published in the daily London papers that day (Tuesday). The Home Secretary promised to forward it to the chair man of the middle level commission. After some conversation the following resolution, proposed by R. Pitcher, Esq., and seconded by the Rev. J. Bramhall, was unanimously agreed to : " That a representation be made from this court to the chairman of the middle level commissioners, stating that it is the opinion of this court that the work now in progress for making a dam is progres sing in too unsatisfactory and tardy a manner; and that it is advisable that relays of men be provided, so that the work may at all times be conducted without the slightest intermission." An order was made for strengthening the Marsh land Mere Sluice, by piling the wings. The IMA.voit, of Lynn (L. W. Jarv is, Esq.) said that he did not know whether this was the time or place to introduce the matter of the distressf the and a b so lute ruin that had c ame upon many o sma ll occupiers throug h this dreadfulxnallcataof s : t r ophe. He had no doubt that Y them were utterly ruined, and some had applHied already for admission to the union workhous.e. e had received several subscriptions from a distance, and he did not know whether it would not b© ad. vi sable t o c ommence a subscription forthwith.. The f ee li n g of the meet i ng was that the middle level commissioners ought to be compelled to m a k e full and proper compensation, and to commence a public subscription would be to take away the re• s ponsibility from th e commissioners. The meeting adjourned. TIE TRAGEDY TRAGEDY IN LUDGATE-lIILL. LYNN, MONDAY EVENING, F o rtunately the p rom p titu de which had been man ifested to stop t he hole in the east bank, which had been scoured deep and 40 feet long, has rendered happily (for the prese nt at least) averted such and a catastrophe as the d e luging of the whole of the co un t r y on the Down ham side of the cut. This afternoon we found a greater state of activity on the works than we hav e previously witnessed. The coffer-dam, as it is called, is progressing very nicely—all the piles b • elng connected together as fast as they arc driven with iron bolts, by an expert diver, who sta y s at bottom the of the cut for three-quarters of an hour at a time. This circumstance alone has drawn hundreds of persons to the spot, such a novelty never being witnessed in the Fens befou. It is felt to be a most, unfortunate thing that Mr. Muller is not permitted to go on with the earth dam, as the piling is liable to be carried away so soon as it is exposed to any force of the tide ; and should it give way, there will be no obstacle again to the stone f r ee course of the spr in g tides. A cargo of has arrived at the mouth of the cut to be deposited between the two rows of piles that form the coffer dam. A temporary lino of railway has been laid down by the side of the cut to assist the transit off the materials, and to supersede the necessity o using tumbrils and carts. Trucks have also been level sluice , and emptying ineto tll© same channel , Within a few yards of th out f a ll of the middle rece i v ed for this purpos e. t h e river Ouze, is the outfull of two o ther cuts for These sluices are of the purposes of drai na g e • co urse smaller than tha t the destruct ion of which tab t ro phe.

The Coroner then carefully summed up the evi dence. The Jury returned a verdict that deceased died from the effects of the poison, but there was no evidence to show how it came into the system. — v ._ From inquiries m — ade yesterday afternoon it ap pears that a slight improvement has taken place in - Mrs. Vyse's health, and that her medical attendants are inclined to thi nk that the unhappy lady will recover.
