Earl DESA.Itr said that the papers alluded to bad not been received, but that Government could have no wish to postpone their answer to the quaition of the Noble Lord. If the Noble Lord would center with him (Lord D,eart) to-morrow, he would ic.firm him how fur the information he wished cou'.d he afforded to him. Their Lordship then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.

FRENCH asked the Secretary to the Admi ralty whether the Australian Royal Mail Company had entered into and executed the contract with the Go cerement f.r the carriage of the mails to Sydney ? What security had been given for the due performance of the service contracted for? Had they been given a Royal Charter, and upon what terms as to the amount of capital to be subscribed? and when the first steamer would sail with the mails from England? Mr. STAFFORD said the Australian Royal Mail Company had not yet entered into a contract with the Government for the conveyance of the Australian mails. The reason they had not done so was that they were waiting for a charter, as they thought it woulld be more satisfactory to enter into a contract as a chartered cumpacy. Under the charter they were empowered to raise 500,000/. first, and 1.000,0001. after wards. They had already paid up between 300,0001. and 400,000/. The first steamer would tail on the 3d of June with the English mails. When the present Go vernment came into office the first vessel was appointed to: sail on the 3d of May, but since then the day had been postponed until the 34 of June. Two steamers were now being built at Dumbarton and one at London. _______ victions, would render their appointments highly satis factory.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. B. OSBORNE entirely coincided as to the count) to be taken in supply with the Noble Lord, and had the Right Honourable the Chancellor of the Exchequer been as explicit as his Noble Colleague on Friday night, he should not have attempted to delay the supplies. But with reference to the iourse about to be pursued by the Government on the subject of national education in Ireland, he must say the explanation of the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite was most unsatisfactory.—(Hear, hear,) It appeared to him, indeed, that Government was going to play the same game with the Protestants of Ireland and this country that were playing with the Protectionists.—(Hear, hear.) The Right Honourable Gentleman's answers, in fact, were exiremely evasive. He said they did not intend to alter the system, and yet they proposed to make such a change in the grant as to render it satisfactory to the Established Church. Now, the only way to make it satisfactory to the Established Church was its total abolition, and he, there fore, viewed with much apprehension the pro posed alteration.—(Hear, hear.) The only way to give satisfaction to the Established Church was to sweep away the entire system, and he hoped the House would be cautious how it sanctioned any change. He hoped both the question of education and that of free-trade would be brought on at an early period of the ensuing aession. VOLUNTEER RIFLE CORPS. On the motion for going into Sapply, Sir DE LACY EVANS moved the following resolu tion:—" That, in the opinion of this House, it is incon sistent, on the part of the Government, to propose en augmentation, however small, of the armed and paid forces of the country, while they, at the very same time, refuse, and in effect discountenance and dis courage, the highly laudable, patriotic, and chivalrous offers of gratuitous service from various parts of the kingdom, having for their object the formation of rifle companies and regiments for the national defence." He thought that when a public impulse in favour of forming volunteer bodies of militia developed itself the Government ought not to delay expressing their opinion upon the subject. If the Government availed themselves of this noble and patriotic feeling there would, perhaps, be no necessity for a militia, or for any increase in the regular army. A great dissatisfaction and apprehension had been occa sioned in consequence of a letter addressed by the Home Secretary in reference to the services offered by a volunteer body of the metropolis. He hoped the Go vernment would take the earliest opportunity of stating they had no distrust in the people, but on the contrary; appreciated the motives which actuated them Mr. HUME, in seconding the motion, took the op portunity of saying that he had heard, with satiefection, the statement of the Noble Lord, that it was not his in tention to interrupt or to atop the supplies. He thought they ought to afford every facility to the Govern ment to obtain the :supplies absolutely neces sary before a disarlution could take place. He lie heard the observations of the Nsible Lord with re gard to the militia with very great suprise, and he could only attribute them to an ignorance of the general opinion entertained by the people on the subject. Nothing, in his opinion, but ivanediate necessity would warrant a conscription in the coantry. He trusted the Government would reconsider the question before they proceeded with the Militia Bill. Mr. WALPOLE, said the Government intended to develope their scheme of militia on Monday, and he would then give it his patient consideration, though without pledging himself to any particular course. He thought volunteers might be a very good secondary force, but he objected to trust alone to them as a de fence to the country. Sir H. INGLIS was glad to hear that the Noble Lord did not intend to oppose the voees in supply, and he hoped he and his party would show a little mete of their forbearance than they did on Friday night.—(Hear.) Mr. BRIGHT did not hear whether Lord T. Russell extended his support to the Militia Bill. Now as that measure would create great discussion in the House and the country, he would propose that the Government put the Bill on the table after expressing their views upon it, and then allow it to remain there as one of those subjects of general policy which was to be left to the decision of the people. The establishment of a militia was pecu liarly a question for the discussion of constituents. It was exceedingly unjusi to the country, except in the case of emergency, to settle so important a question when the House was in a state of disorganization. consequent upon the approaching dissolution. He there fore trusted that the Noble Lord did not give the Go vernment the slightest expectation that he would be pre pared to assist them in carrying such a measure this session.

Sir JOHN TYRRELL observed that the Noble Lord had come to his senses since Friday night, and had found he was mistaken in his effort to enlarge the basis of his opposition. Ho had endeavoured .t o act upon a cat and dog principle—of neither administering affairs himself nor permitting any one else to do so. The Go vernment had to encounter two oppositions, the one that met at Chesham , place, and the other to which the Hon. Member for Manchester belonged; the one he would call the broad-bottomed opposition, and the other the broad-brimmed opposition. (Loud laughter.) A great public actor, a Mr. Keeley, en tirely expressed his sentiments on the position of affairs when he said, in a new farce, " Are you in a hurry ? lam not in a hurry—great folks are never in a hurry—the Government is not in a hurry.—(A Laugh.) Now he hoped the Government was not in a hurry.— (Laughter.) They were neither afraid of the Opposi Lion nor of a dissolution. Mr. RICARDO wished to know whether the Go verment bad any intention of reversing the policy upon ibe Navigatiorwaws which was adopted in 1848? Mr. BERRIES explained that there had been some misapprebewion as to what he had stated on the *object. Wbat he s,id was that he saw with great regret the difficulty, if not actual impossibility, of reversing the policy which he believed was most ieadvistrily pursut-d in 1848 1 hat opinion he distinctly expressed at the tune the enactment was vassed and still entertained ; bat if he were asked whether it was practicable to propose any remedy to alleviate the distress which the repeal of the navigation laws should say that he believed that some hesaud produced , c hcetre might b e be adopted. Mr. LABOUCHERE viewed this speech as a funeral oration over his eld opinions. Mr. G. F. YOUNG denied that the shipping int erest was in a state of prosp, rity. Mr. MITCEIELL hoped that the light dues would be for the future paid by the public purse.: Mr. NE WDEGATE could not avoid auguring from our present system the utter ruin ants decline of the great shippi ( g interest. Mr. EW ART thought the present state of things was mos: prospero us , an d tie i ns ' ance d t h e p or t o f Li verpoo l OS exemplifyi ng in its returns the great advances which each year made over the other. He did not, however, deny that the shipping interest might be affected, but the first method of tieing that would be in his opinion to lower the timber duties —(Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER con gratulated the House upon the annuutict-ment of the Hommrahle Member for Montrose that there would be no further opposition to the granting of sup plies, and he was also piestied'to hear from the Noble Lord the It ader of the combined opposition that there would be no further obstruction to the progress of public business. —(Cheers.) The Noble Lord was quite correct inn attributing to the Government an anx ious desire for the speedy dispatch of public business, and they were also equally as anxious that a recurrence ;to the sense of the country thould take place as soon as the necessary measures fo.t the ser vice of ;he country had been andpted, and those measures placed before the House which her Majesty's Govern ment thought it fit should be passed before the present Parliament was broken up.—(Clieers.)

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Siu,—Tbe remarks you have lately so judiciously made on a Memorandum published by Ridgway, on the necessity of a Minister of War for our defensive as well as offensive operations, have drawn my par ticular attention to the subject ; and I find, on read ing over some of the old reports of Military Com missioners, that as far back as 1837 it was reported— That " if the military defence of the empire is to be conducted upon a footing of economy and efficiency, it is necessary that it should be managed upon one general and comprehensive system, having reference to the exigencies of the service both at home and abroad. The whole amount of force which is re quired to be kept up is determined, not merely by the quota necessary for the defence of each colony, and by the demands for home service, but is also affected by the description of force assigned to the several stations, and the nature and situation of the barracks provided, the arrangements respect ing reliefs, and those of the commissariat and medical departments, on which the efficiency of the troops so grea:ly depends. Such being the case, it appears obviously expedient that there should be some one member of the Government particularly charged with the duty of exercising a general super intendence and control in all these matters, and to whom it should more immediately belong to take the pleasure of the Crown upon annual establishments, and to be responsible to Parliament for the advice so given by him." And yet, Sir, so little attention has been paid to this important matter, that in 1852 we find ourselves without defence, and the people called upon to turn out as militia men. In 1850, that is ten years after the necessity of reform in our naval and military administration, we find Earl Grey quietly stating in his evidence— " I certainly think the present system a very im perfect one ; but I am not prepared to say that I think it is one of the defects which are most pressing for correction. There have always been subjects, I think, of still more pressing im portance before the public hitherto." Of course there have my Lord Grey—it is necessary to say that to excuse the great culpability of the neglect paid to this recommendation of ten years' standing ! "It is a subject," adds his Lordship, " that cannot be dealt with without an Act of Parliament; it would lead to very lengthy discussions; and, looking at the general state of things in this country, I do not think that it has hitherto been a subject so pressing as other inte resting, though subordinate subjects, with which we have been dealing." Indeed, my Lord; then it is high time that it should be considered of more importance. And now you are out of office, perhaps you can find time to draw up this Act of Parliament, for it is no joke for the country to pay 16,000,0001. and upwards, and then be without internal or external defence. I hope, Mr. Editor, you will strongly protest against this Militia Bill, and warn Earl Derby in time, for I know, from information I have, that the men of the north will not turn out for a militia. W e all agree with you in a desire to give the present men a fair trial, but we want no militia. I am, Sir, &c., JOHN WILSON. Bolton, March 12. PRIEST-WORSHIP versus THE WORSHIP OF GOD. TO THE EDITOR O. THE SUN. Sin,—On the eve of a general election, I trust you will think it opportune to gibbet, in your admirable and most extensively read columns,.ithe subj o i ne d morceau of correspondence, extrtacted from the columns of the Puseyite Oxford Herald, of the 13rb current. If Pa seyism could ,iprevail, the Test and Corporation Acts would be repealed, public penance revived, and all th e enormities of Roman Catholic discipline and intolerance go forward, till civil war relieved us, or the Inquisition rivetted our chains. No less results are involved in any, however temporary, success of the bastard Roman Ca tholicism, which triumphs in " Churoh discipline," and all the devilish et cceteras of Tractarian treason. "RESTORATION OF CHURCH DISCIPLINE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE OXFORD HERALD. - " Sir,—A circumstance occurred during Morning Service at Littlemore Church last Sunday, calculated to gladden the hearts of all who are interested in the restoration of Church discipline. This was the public restoration' of one of ,the puriohioners who had been suspended from Holy Communion during the period of more than a year and a halt, and who, having given every sign of true penitence, was thus formally re admttted to that blessed privilege. " His offence had been of a nature to cause much scandal in the neighbourhood, and it was con sidered that unless his repentance was also open and manifest, the requirements of the_ Church, as expressed in the Rubric before the office for Holy Communion, could not be satisfied.l,The Lord Bishop of the diocese, to whom the notice of the suspension had been previously given, concurring in this opinion, a shortform of re-admission was drain up by the Incumbent of the parish, the Rev. G. W. Huntingford, and read by him instead of a sermon. The sources from whence it was taken were a form sanctioned by Convocation in 1714, the second part of the Homily on the Right Use of the Church,' and Bishop Wilson's Form of admitting Pe alien's.' " The Penitent knelt at the entrance to the Church, and his replies to the questions put to him, which were from Bishop Wilson, were distinctly heard by the whole con gregaiion. Then, having received a solemn blessing trout tbo officiating priest, the whole was concluded by s short t xhortation to all present, and the latter part of th. Commination Service' was read, beginning with the blBt Biala), said kneeling. •' Tito ceremony was very impressive, awl will, it i• ped, have a lasting eff, ct upon those who witnessed it.

He again claimed his privilege as a British subject, and Gardner sold him to a lawyer named John Howard, of Baker street, New Orleans, to whom he also communicated that he was a British subject. Howard did not keep him long, and disposed of him to Mr. Bsrher, a Scotchmsn, of Natches. He was only with Mr. Barber one hour when he was again sold to a Mr. Lapiere, and he informed him that he was a free-bor n man f rom E ng l an d , an d asked him when he was going out of town. Mr. Lapiere replied, at 5 o'clock in the evening, and he requested his name and address, and an order to get his clothes from Jobn Howard. M r . L ap i ere gave hi m hi s name an d a d dress, and the o rd er , w i t h wh i c h h e i mme di ately posted off to Mr. M 43 hew, the British' consul. Mr. Mayhew questioned him upon his adventures, and put the case into the hands of a lawyer, who took him before a judge, and he made oath that he was a British sub ject. After that was done the British consul said he must again remain in gaol till the business was settled, and he was con s igned to the hands of Sheriff LewiLewin,v% ho kt pt him i n gaol for one 3 ear and three months, acti n g as coo k e nd whitewasher.

He was immedia tely put on board th e s hi p A nn D o herty, bound to Liverpo o l , where he a r ri ve d on th e I s t of January last. He left Liverpool towards the end of last week, and walked up to London, where he arrived on Tuesday night, in the hopes of obtaining redress. The magistrate, having elicited from the complainant that the captai n who had thus wronged him was not in his jurisdic tion, and that complainant had no Idea where be mg , could give him no redress. THE LORD CHIEF JUSTICE AND THE SHERIFF OF BUCKS. Lord Campbell has addressed the following letter to Mr. Scott Murray:— "Cambridge, Saturday, March 13. "My dear High Sheriff,—On my arrival here on Wed nesday to hold the assizes I was told that there was a letter addressed by you to me printed in the London newspapers, and subsequently I received a manu script copy of this letter. I have since been in cessantly engaged in the discharge of my judicial duties, rendered more onerous by the absence of my colleague Mr. Justice Crompton. Having at last attentively perused your letter, I confess that I feel great reluctance, under all the circumstances, to take any further notice of it than to acknowledge that I have had the honour of receiving it. But you expressly ask an answer,' on the ground that ' your office is judicial as well as ministerial' I should be sorry to be thought wanting in courtesy to a brother judge, and I would anxiously avoid the risk of appearine to be wanting in respect for that large and valuable class of my fellow subjects of whom you assume to be the organ. I will, therefore (although it must be very briefly), reply to the complaints which you prefer against me. " You represent that I had no reason to be surprised by a Roman Catholic priest being introduced into the carriage along with me as chaplain. If you will refer to the correspondence whieh had previously taken place between us, you will find that, fro m y our I statement to me, had good reason to believe that no one in the character of sheriff's chaplain would appear at the assizes. " You then (I think very unnecessarily) protest against the supposed dictum that the chaplain ap pointed by the sheriff oecomee the chaplain of the judges.' What I said upon this subject evidently meant that pro hac vice, he officiates as chaplain to the judges; and there can be no doubt that he does so, as he invariably preaches before them, and says grace when they entertain the magistrates at dinner, although the sheriff is not present as a guest. I very readily allow that, notwithstanding the immemorial courtesy upon this subject, there is no legal obligation on the sheriff to appoint a chaplain to officiate on such occasion; and, when you wrote to me to intimate that there would be no sermon preached before the judges at the Buckinghamshire assizes, I only in a friendly manner advised you to make provision that the decent solemnity, usual and expected, before the judges proceed to ad minister justice, might be observed. " I should have hoped that my meaning was as little liable to be misunderstood, when I said, that the Pro testant religion is the religion of the judges of this coun try,' viz.—that all the judges of England who go as judges of assize are Protestants—a fact uncontested and notorious—and I cannot imagine that any sheriff, eith the knowledge of this fact, would do anything to offend their Protestant feelings, from the consideration that, in point of law, persons of a different religious persuasion may be appointed judges. I now come to the great grievance —the alleged en croachment on the privileges of Sheriffs, by Protestant Judges not permitting Roman Catholic priests to sit in the carriage with them during the public pro cession which takes place on entering the assize town to open the commission, and to attend Divine service at the church or cathedral, while trum pets are blowing and javelinmen are marching by their side. Ever since the Reformation it has been the custom that a Protestant clergyman, appointed by the sheriff, has accompanied the judges on those occasions, and has set in court by the judge who presides in trying crimi nals. Surely, however, this has been at the pleasure of the judges, and out of compliment to them, not ass privi lege of the sheriff. The sheriff's chaplain, qua the sheriff's chaplain, can have no more right to sit in the carriage with the judges, or to have any intercourse with the judges than any other member of the sheriff's esta blishment. The sheriff may abstain from appointing any one to officiate as chaplain for the judges, but he cannot be entitled to intrude upon them his own chap lain, of a different religion from theirs. A gentleman of the Jewish religion may be, and iu several instances has been sheriff of an English county. He may appoint a rabbi to minister to him in religious matters during his shrievalty, but I conceive he has no privilege to in sist upon this rabbi, attired in the costume of the Jewish priesthood, being seated in the same carriage with the judges on the public occasions to which I have referred. " I do not doubt that you state the precedents you rely upon exactly as they have been stated to you. If this statement were correct, I repeat that I should refuse to be bound by them, believing that they passed per in cur*" or upon an erroneous view of what is becom ing. From a letter of the Rev. Mr. Coidwell, the very worthy rector of Stafford, I find that you have been misinformed as to, what has occurred in his county; for Mr. Fitzherbert, the first Roman Catholic sheriff of Staffordshire, appointed a Protestant clergyman to offi ciate as chaplain at the assizes. the sheriff not being accompanied by any Roman Catholic priest whatever; and, although Mr. Whitgrave, the second, had a Roman Catholic priest as his 6 personal chaplain' (which he had an unquestionable right to do), he employed a Protestant clergyman to preach the assize sermon, to attend with him to meet the judges, and do all that pertained to the office of chaplain during the year.' "My brother judge, Mr. Justice Crompton, fully ap proved of the course adopted by me at Aylesbury, as was stated to you in his hearing; for, although, like myself, a warm friend to religious liberty, he, with me, regrets to see attempts by persons professing the Roman Catholic religion to do things which are not at all necessary to the lull enjoy ment of religious liberty, and which not unreasonably alarm and offend good Protestants. Highly rejoicing in the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, I sincerely wish it to be carried into efftect in the spirit in which it was framed ; but I am sure that in the year 1829 nei ther Roman Catholics nor Protestants caleula ed as a consequence of it that it conferred upon any sheriff the privilege which you now claim. I lament such claims, from my sincere good will tor those who indiscreetly make them, being convinced that they not only stir up religious strife, but prevent or retard mea sures which might be c .f grea t b ene fit to t h e R oman Ca'holics in the Uuiteo litegdoin. " I have the honour to remain, my dear High Sheriff, " Yours very faithfully, " CAMPBELL, 64 The High Sheriff of the County of Bucks." THE LONDO 'N GAZETTE, March 19. DIVIDENDS.

FLEETWOOD, PREST 3N, AND WEST RIDING JUNCTION. The half-yearly meeting — o - rtiiiicornpany was held at PrPston by adjournment on Saturday; Mr. T. B. Addi son in the chair. The directori reported that the sum charged for the secretary's salary during the last year was sta , ed in the accounts ac 1001., but would be redir ed to 50/. The Prr stun and Longridga Company object to the intro duction into the accounts, as between the two companies, of the last motioned stun, and of the 4001. charged on account of renewal. Being desirous that tOe agrt.vin"rik between the two companies should be fully and fairly carried out, the directors would use their endeavours to arrange this matter amicably. They, however, found much difficulty in so ac jog upon the agreement as to bring the concern into a profitable state for either of the companies, and hal been thairous to make such modifi cations as would bring about a more vigorous co-opera tion, and offer better prospects to the shareholders. The capital account to the 31st of December, 1851. showed that the receipts amounts d to 169,6721, including balance due to bankers, 11,3301. The revenue account for the half rae ending the 3181 of December, 1851, showed that 1,9631 had been re ceived, and 1,231/ expended, leaving a balance of 7321. The CHAIRMAN stated that the 400/. charged to the renewal account would not be of importance to this company alone, though it was of importance as between it and the Longridge Company. The directors had been desirous of carrying out the agreement with the Long ridge Company, a nd had to introduce, as opportunities might occur, those modifications that might be for the benefit of both parties ; but of course the agreement being made by two parties, could only be varied by the consent of both. He concluded by proposing, " That the report be received, and the accounts paused, subkt to correction in respect of tie sum charged f , r• the Se cretary's salary, and (as between this company and the Longridge Company) of the sum charged in respect of renewal." Mr. NEWBRRRY seconded the resolution, and it was adopted unanimously. The retiring directors and auditors were then re elected without opposition. A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the pro ceedings. SCO TTISII Mu Jl.l v. I tUN RAILWAY. The half yoarly meeting of this company was held ou Monday at Perth, Sir. J. Stirling in the chair. The report was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in the adoption of the report, said he had much pleasure in assuring thorn that the) had fairly earned their first dividend during the past half-year. He had also to ststa that the capital accourit was now nearly clo.seci, and he believed it would be finally closed before the next meeting. They would re quire some additional plant to work their line, the pro sent stock being small, not having cost more than 1,000/. per mile. The arrears on c.dis amounted to about 18,000/, the greater part of which he believed would be paid. The nor revenue for the half year would exceed 5 0001, which would admit of a dividend at the rate of per cent., and leave a balance of between 600/. and 700/ for the next account. Mr. KERR 8 , eunded the motion. Mr. H. KERR suggested that separate accounts should be made out, shown g the receipts at the different sta tions, so that they might see what each was paying, fie also suggested that a statement of all their liabilities should be made up and it;cluded in the revenue account every half-year. He wished to know something about the Durtkeld branch. The CitAIRMAN said they had used every exertion to get in the accounts fur the Penh general station. He did not suppose they would have much to pay for it. They would find in the revenue account that a sum of 2,000/. had been charged to the account of list station, which would ultirnat ly go to capital. Nothing had beer, don.. since the last, meeting wish respect to the Dunk , .ht branch; an action was pending in respect to it which they hop, d to set aside. Mr. Nl•GaviN congratulated his brother proprietors on the improved prospect of the undertaking. They bad no preference shares, and the dt , henture bonds were small in proportion to their capital. He thought it a very gratirying circumstance that their c..,pital account was likely to be elnsed ai 622.8121. Resolutions were pas..Td adopting the report, declar ing a dividend at the rate of 13 ,, .r cent. free of in come tax. authorising the conversion of shares into stock, and re•eleettng the retiring dir. , cturs. The proceedings concluded Kith a vote of thanks to the chairman. RAILWA Y SHARE MARKETS. _ BuisroL, MAncit 20. STOCK ExCHANGE.- The share market still continues firm.
