LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1846. -- The LORD Cg.i.Ncen.e.on took his seat on the Woolsack at • • Five o'clock. • After the presentation of petitions, The Earl Sr. GER3IANS moved the Irish Pacification Bill, andexplain* 'Committee on the t n i various •amendments which it was intended these was ..one to pro -1 d nature of pose in Co:nmittee ; limit ing the duration of the Act to five With regard to the amendment proposed by Earl GREY he could not consent to it. The punishment of all others Most dreaded by the Irish was transportation, and one example of summary transportation would produce more effect than many examples of imprisonment; and it should be remem bored that they were now about to apply an entrarordinary remedy to on extraordinary state cf things. They could not detect criminals, and, therefore, they were bound to prevent crime by preventing persons being abroad after nightfall. The Noble Earl then quoted the opinion of Mr. O'Coermenn in 1834, as to the necessity of some law to prevent persons being out after nightfall. The object was, to get at those . cencerning eviiosa guilt there could be no moral doubt, but against whom persons refue•ed to give evidence. Besides, the power of awarding punishment was; left to the Judge, and it was impossible to doubt that be would exer vise n•preper discretion. He believed that nothing short of Yte proposed measure would meet the exigencies Of the case, ' rand he knew t: at several persons connected with Ireland considered that it did not ' ero far enough. Lord BROCCHIAM considered it was degrading to think that any of their fellow-creatures should be living under such a delusion as to imagine that they had a right to massacre their landlords for the exercise of the undoubted and proper Tights of property. With regard to the amendment of Lord DENMAN, he would postpone it, and make it part of a more ' general measure. Ile considered the amendment, enabling magistrates to discharge persons found al:arced at night, if - to the truth of their account as to the ig abroad, was a great improvement. sportatien, he considered it would be at once to transfer the criminal from so that the commencement of thepunish fie immediately, d ue t i me b e i ng given, e hulks, to inquire into the case.

The House then resolved itself into Committee on the Bill. The Bill was passed through Committee, and the various amendments were made in it. Earl GREY'S amendment, to do away with the punishment of transportation in cases where persons in proclaimed coun ties were found out of their houses after nightfall,was rejected by a majority of 31. The numbers being for the amendment 7, against it 38. One of the amendments agreed to was for limit►ng the Bill to three years. The other Bills on the table were forwarded a stage, and their Lordships adjourned. The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock. Several railway Bills were read a second time, and ordered to be committed. Colonel THOMAS WOOD presenter? a petition from Chelsea, for the total and immediate repeal of the corn-laws.. Several petitions of a similar nature were also presented, as were petitions against the embodiment of the militia. A new writ was ordered for Stafford, in the room of the Hon. SWYNFEN TnoarAs CARNEGIE, who, since his election, had accepted the office of oue of the Lords of the Treasury. In answer to a question from Mr. Wur.soN PArrEs, rela tive to the amalgamation of railways, Sir G. CLERK said it was considered expedient by the Government, that all propositions for amalgamation should be referred to the same Committee. The Right Hon. Baronet, in answer to a question from Sir G. GREY, said the evidence taken before the Gauge Com mission would be laid on the table during the course of next week. The, Railway Deposit R:11 was brought in, read a first, and ordered to be read a second time. The second reading of the Turnpike Roads (Scotland) Bill was adjourned for a fortnight, in consequence of the absence of the Lord Advocate. On motion made for that purpose, It was agreed that the House at its rising should adjourn to Monday. In answer to a question from Lord INGESTRE, Sir H. PEEL stated that at the conclusion of the discussion this evening, he would state when itwas his intention to pro ceed with the Committee of Supply. The House then resolved itself into aCommittee of Supply on the Corn and Customs Importation measures, and Mr. W. O. STANLEY, pursuant to notice moved as an amendment to Sir R. PEEL'S plan, that in lieu of the duty now payable on the importation of corn, grain, meal, or flour, the prodact of foreign countries, there shall be paid a fixed duty of ss. per quarter upon wheat, 2s. 6d. on barley, 2s. on oats, and meal and flour in proportion. Cap'ain Wool) deprecated the delay which had taken place with respect to this subject, believing it to be in jurious to the tenant-farmer, and also to the poor, as it prevented some decision being come to with respect to the law of settlement. He would vote against the amend ment, and against any proposition that was calculated to protract the carrying of the measures proposed by the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government. Mr. STAFFORD O'BRIEN would not vote upon the propo sition of the Hon. Member for Anglesea. After some observations from Lord George Bentinck, Lord John Russell, Mr. Collett, Sir John Tyrrell, Lord Woreley, Mr. Curteis, and Mr. Hudson, the amendment was withdrawn. Mr. M. MILNES then rose to move the omission of all words in the resolution respecting the importation of corn, referring to the cessation or alteration of duties to be paid in the year 1849. he believed it was an idle thing to throw away altogether the idea of raising a fiscal revenue from corn. He considered that if the adoption of a low fixed duty was determined upon, all the difficulties surrounding this question might be got over. Mr. AGLIONBY pressed on the Government the necessity of enfranchising copyholds in the north of England. He was sure if they did so, they . would ensure the support of hundreds who would otherwise oppose them. Sir H. PEEL trusted the Hon. Member for Pontefract would withdraw his amendment. As to the proposition of the Hon. Member for Cockermouth, he thought it could not be entertained on the present discussion. He thought it was well worthy of consideration irrespective of the corn laws. He thought the expense of transferring landed pro perty was a great evil. Mr. WILLIAM MILES dissented to the whole of the amend ments proposed. He intended, upon the discussion of the Bill, to maintain the corn-law of 1842. At present, he should offer no further opposition to the measure, but he wished it to be understood, that in doing so, he did not abate one iota of his opposition to the resolutions, which lie looked upon merely as the foundation of the Bill, to which he should give his most determined opposition before it left that House. After sonic discussion, in which Sir Arthur Brooke, Mr. Acland, Mr. Stafford O'Brien, Mr. Charier; Buller, Mr. P. Borthwick, Mr. Ward, Mr. Lawson, Mr. Hume, Mr. Fitz gerald, and Lord George Bentinck joined, Mr. M. Miroons withdrew his amendment. Mr. P. HOWARD withdrew the motion of which lie had given notice, for the extension of the period of protection upon corn until the Ist day of February, 1851. The resolutions with respect to the importation cf corn were, as originally propqsed by the Government, agreed to after a short discussion, in the course of which Sir R. PEEL stated that it was his intention to bring in the Bill founded on the resolutions on Monday ; that on that day it should be read a first time, and he should suggest that the second reading should take place on Monday week. Colonel SIETIIORP renewed his attack against the Go vernment for not having several of its members in that House, especially the Secretary for the Colonies, and the Secretary for Ireland, and begged to know when the Right Hon. Baronet expected to see them on the Treasury benches? Sir R. PEEL could not say, but, he would undertake, if the Gallant Colonel would accept the Chiltern Hundreds, that the Noble Lord, the Secretary for Ireland, should op pose him for Lincoln. Colonel Sin-mono. said lie should consider himself dis graced by applying to the Government for the Chiltern Hundreds, and if he did he defied the Hon. Baronet or the Secretary for Ireland to turn him out of Lincoln. Sir R. PEEL, in answer to an observation from Mr. DISRAELI, said that Mr. GLADSTONE had attended every Cabinet Council since he had been Secretary of State for the Colonies, although he was not a Member of Parliament. ' The resolutions with respect to Indian corn, buck wheat, and rice, were then proposed. Mr. MILES opposed the resolution. Sir R. PEEL believed, if corn was admitted duty free, many benevolent individuals would spend large sums in the purchase of it to assist in allaying the wants of the people of Ireland. He believed it would answer all purposes if members would allow the resolution to pass through the Committee that night, and discuss the question on the re port on Monday, as he did not purpose to include this reso lution in the Corn Bill. The proposition of the Right Hon. Baronet was, after a short discussion, agreed to, the resolution adopted, and the report upon it ordered to be taken into consideration on Monday. The other orders of the day having been disposed of, the House adjourned to Monday. The resolutions which relate to wheat, barley, oats, rye peas, and beans, and their respective meals, as also those which relate to buck-wheat, maize, maize -meal, and rice, have now been passed, and the Bill which is to regulate henceforth the import duties on these articles of food will be brought in on Monday next. The course which has been taken by the protectionists with regard to the various amendments of Mr. STANLEY, Mr. Mu2eas, and others, has unexpectedly expedited the progress of Sir R. PEEL'S measure very greatly. They will have either the present protec tion or none ; they resist Sir R. PEEL'S measures in this spirit, and with the intention, if the measures pas, of endeavouring to get them repealed and to come back to the state of things now; they will not, therefore, be parties in any degree to any change, by supporting any modifications of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S proposals, and they wash their hands of all amend mentr. When Mr. STANLEY'S amendment, last ntht, was supposA to be on the point of sensing to a division, it was amusing to see the protectionist phalanx wheeling out of the House in compact body. Well, we are quite ready to compound for the protectionists' chance of getting protection back again hereafter by their aloption of a course now which so materially facili tates the speedy enactment of Sir It. PEEL'S proposals. Once let Sir R. PEEL'S measure become the law of the laud, and we wish the protectionists may get it rescinded. They look to a dissolution, infatuated men I Let them depend on it that every week, nay every day which passes, increases the force of public opinion_in favor of free trade, and brings its aid towards the future verification of Mr. CORD I's predic, tion as to the result of an appeal to the country. The course which the protectionist party are taking in the Commons will, we presume, also be taken hereafter in the Lords; and if so, we get rid of a danger which has hitherto been present to our minds, of some modification in the Upper House which might cause the rejection of the Bill alto ther. There is now, however, no doubt that the protec tionist party are committed to abstaining altogether from support of amendments; and this being so, all doubt about the fate of the Bill in the Upper House is removed. We re peat a statement which we made some days ago, that calcu lations, by persons most competent to form an opinion, make a majority of at least thiry for the Government in the House of Lards. The Austrian Government is said to be a paternal Govern ment, watching over the people with more than a father's care, chastising them only when they are in error, treating them with great kindness when they continue in the beaten tract, but punishing them with severity when they venture to think that they are wiser than their rulers, or that they are in any way capable of self-government, or judging for themselves. If this is paternal government, England may well congratulate herself that she knows not its blessings, and that by disobedience to its precepts she has emancipated herself from the thraldoin of priests, banished a race of kings calling themselves the fathers of their people, and established a system of government, which has raised her to the highest pitch of power, and made her the envy of the world. But despotism is so attractive to those in office, that it is never given up but by force, and Austria, which knows that by force alone it can be retained, has taken care to .keep herself fully prepared by a large army and its pteuliardistribution to put down every attempt to wrest absolute dominion from her hands. Nothing but this cueellromrat cons ciousness navrleing of power could have induced the First Chan 119an.toNiessvieter e a ven tyr i a n nn th ic e al dak ed r ic e f st aaggseinc or duringtthenee the Reformation, when the Catholic Church was struggling for its very existence, did there appear such a wanton attack upon the freedom cf though;la?nrlstflch a determination to put down new doctrirvis by document, which des:"3. this attempt of the Court of Aust e r e i 4 and persecution, as Rona la The document, that the CaatTilicansrisonesianlltinhge and his f G lo z l e v i e te r t s. an a l themselves German, not forming part of any com munity acknowledged in the Austrian monarchy, are an legal association, and have no right of domicile in the em pire. Those who compose it are to be punished as crimi nals in case of any breach of certain articles of the code re. lative to the rights of the Church. Foreigners professing the new doctrines, if they enter the country without the permission of the Austrian Minister residing at their respective courts, are immediately to be expelled— in other words, they:will not be suffered to enter the country. Foreigners residing in Austria professing these doctrines shall be ordered to quit the country without delay, and article 6th provides that in case of the death of any one of these sectaries no funeral ceremony shall be performed, un less the priests of the church to which ho belonged shall have given their consent, and the body shall be buried in silence through the intervention ofthe civil authorities. And in the event of any Austrian functionary adopting the new doctrine, he shall be immediately proscribed and removed from office. But vain are all these safeguards for the Ca.tholic faith. They have already been tried, and at every trial they only added fuel to the flame. All this, however, is in perfect keeping with the despotic, and deadening policy which has so long prevailed in the Aulic councils, and they have reaped the fruits. It led to the defeat of every Austrian army when it came in contact with the French under the Re public, the Consulate., and the Empire, and it bids fair to dissolve the heterogeneous mass of states now kept in sub jection by MwrrEuxicn, solely from the :ear of banishment, perpetual imprisonment, or death. If we could have counselled Mr. Emma. with hope of success, :we should have said,—" Let the Andover Union wait till the Corn Bill has got through the House of Com mons." It must be allowed, however, in justice to the Hon- Member for Andover, that he expressed his readiness to post pone his motion, if other Hon. Members who had notices after his would also postpone theirs, in order to allow the Committee on the commercial resolutions to come on. Mr. NEWDEGATE expressed his determination to bring on his motion for inquiry into the proceedings in the Warwickshire Registration Courts ; and if the night was to be occupied, to the exclusion of free-trade, the Honourable Member for An dover had as much right to the night as the Member for Warwickshire ; and there is no comparison in respect of importance between the two motions. We yield to none, and have shown it often, in desire for the success, and the speedy success, of Sir R. PEEL'S measures ; but that does not blind us to the importance of the questions raised on Thnrsday night, as to the mismanagement in the Andover Union, the extraordinary mode is which the Poor. law Commissioners obstructed the inquiry which they had themselves instituted, and their peculiar treatment•of the Assistant-Commissioner who conducted the inquiry, Mr. PARKER. There is no reason why the ad verse division of Thursday should in any way injure the eause of free trade. There is no connexion between the two questions. As to the decision which is said to have been turned against the Government by the protectionists, it may be so or it may not. If it be, we have only to say that the votes of gentlemen, given against the Government from pique, are worth as much as if given (as they would have been given last session) for the Government, for no other reason than to help the Govern ment, and equally without regard to the merits of the case. But we have taken some trouble to analyse the division ; and we find that in the majority of 92 for Mr. CaarsTix's amend ment (on which the division took place) there were no less than 38 Members from the Liberal side, and among them some must zealous free-traders, that some Conser vative Members who support Sir Roman' PEEL, as Sir Jonx HANDIER, Mr. Alderman COPELAND, and Mr. BODKIN, were also in the malerity, and that a large proportion of the Conservative Members, who voted against the Government, have always been consistent opponents of the Poor-law Commissioners. The unanimity of the speakers in faiyour of inquiry into the treatment of Mr. PARKER is a much stronger and more striking proof of its propriety than the majority of votes. Every one who rose, with the single exception of Sir • JAMES GRAHAM, treated inquiry as imperatively necessary, and if it had been necessary before, Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S speech, as Mr. HUME observed, made the necessity stronger. Sir JAMES GRAHAM vindicated Mr. PARKER'S dismissal, by charging him generally with indis cretion and insubordination. Specific instances in support of these general charges Sir J. GRAHAM avoided mentioning. Mr. PA.RKER, after ten years' service in the Poor-law Com mission, having received during that service many marks of the approbation of his superiors, is dismissed without cause assigned, but under circumstances calculated to give rise to all sorts of suspicions and imputations; he is thrown back upon hiS profession, under great disadvantages; and the Home Secretary having an opportunity, in the House of Commons, of explaining the reason of Mr. PARKER'S dismissal, if he does not choose to allow the House of Com mons to inquire into it, gives no explanation, deals still in general charges only, adds some general charges of his own, as if anxious to add to the load of disadvantage under which Mr. PARKER has been compelled to return to the legal pro fession, and refuses inquiry. We shall now ascertain, we presume, the specific complaints against Mr. PARKER. The Poor-law Commissioners claim, it appears, the power of removing these , Assistant-Commissioners. The division of Thursday has settled that question. But if the House of Commons had sanctioned such a claim, we say that there would have been an end to all chance of procuring men of character and independence to fill the office of Assistant-Commissioner. The Assistant-Commis sioners am generally taken from the bar ; and among them are many members of the bar of high standing and reputa tion. Mr. PARKER'S treatment might have been theirs, if the Government had had a majority. Madrid papers of the 27th ult. have been received. On that day the discussion on the Bill for indemnifying the lay titheholders was resumed, when the Finance Minister took the opportunity of making certain statements calculated to allay the anxiety of the public in reference to the new plans. The measure, he said, had originated with the former Go vernment, and so far from the new loan injuring credit, he was quite sure that it would have the contrary effect, and that public credit would soon rise. The law established one great point—the abolition of tithes, and the proposed grant for public worship and the clergy bad been reduced by 9,000,000 reals, which would afford additional means of paying the interest of the debt. The Gazeita publishes a royal decrees appointing M. M..tETINEZ DE LA. ROSA Am bassador of Spain in Paris. The prospect of a new loan had depressed the funds. The Three per Cents. closed at 30} for cash, and 30 13-16 at 60 days; and the Five per Cents. at 21i at 60 days. In the French Chamber of Deputies some questions were put to the Minister of Public Works relative to a fatal acci dent which, it was said, had occurred on the Lyons and St. Etienne Railway. The Minister regretted much to be obliged to state that a very dreadful accident had certainly occurred, the particulars of which he had received on Wed nesday morning from the Prefect of the Rhone. The shock was frightful. One of the locomotives was dashed to pieces, and several waggons were entirely crushed. On receiving intelligence of the accident, the Prefect, the Procureur du Roi, and the Procureur-General proceeded to the spot, and found that eight persons had been killed and 30 wounded, of whom 10 very dangerously. "This melauchely accident," he added, " was not to be attributed to any defect in the construction of the line, but rather to a want of care and prudence on the part of the administration. The whoic affair was at present under official investigation, which might call fur punishment both eriniinilly stated also, at the same time, that the cause of the fall of the Barentin viaduct was now perfectly well known to be a want cf firmness in the bases of the columns on which the arches were constructed. In the Committees, the Deputies had examined several bills among others, two for the better fortification of Havre. By one a sum of 11,500p01. were demanded for the fortifica tions towards the sea, and 10,000,000 f. for those on the land • side. By another Bill, the Government demands 16,000,000 f. for improvements in the harbour, and for the construction of four forts. Both Bills were approved of in the bureaux. Another Bill, demanding 19,200,000 f. for the fortifications of Cherbourg was also examined, and ap proved of. The Postal Reform Bill called forth a length ened discussion, and was generally approved of. Several Members, however, warmly advocated a uniform postage. The insurrection in Poland is adverted to in most of the papers, but great mystery appears still to prevail on this melancholy subject. It b distressing to hear of such gallant people constantly rising up against their oppressors, and often without the slightest prospect of success, only to be trampled down anew. The Journal des Debuts, in the following paragraph, attributes to Prussia and Austria merits to which they are not entitled, but the rest of it unfortunately is too true : 7 " Since the first par.. tition of Poland, now more than seventy years ago, the Poles have several times endeavoured to regain the independence of their country. They have always paid most dearly for their efforts, which, though always heroic, were frequently inopportune and wanting in prudence. This last attempt, undertaken against the three powers, two of whom, Austria and Prussia, hare shown great tolerance towards their Polish provinces, conforming besides to those principles of justice and humanity which cannot be denied their Govern ments, appears to us destined to draw down upon this unfortunate country only new misery." According to a letter from Breslaw, of the 27th of February, the insur gents of Cracow were in possession of the town as late as the 25th, and the Provisional Government, in anticipation of an attack on the 28th by the Prussian troops, had ordered all the male inhabitants from eighteen to fifty years of age to take arms in support of the insurrection. A proclamation had been issued exhorting. the people to exertion, and pro mising abolition of all their grievances. It is stated in one of the Paris papers, that M. BQUTENIEFF, the Russian Minister at Rome, had 'presented a note to the POPE, denying, in the most positive manner, the state mnts relative to the persecution of the Basilian nuns at Minsk. The note contradicts the whole of the assertions alleged to have been made by the Lady Abbess.

Ii SWELL. This was an action to recover the sum of 121., on a guarantee. The defendant pleaded the general issue. The facts of this case were rather important. It appeared by the evidence for the plaintiff; that in July last a pro missory note, signed by Rbbert and James Haswell, was dishonoured, and an action was commenced on the 26th of September. On the Bth of October the defendant gave a guarantee to pay the note, in consideration that the plaintiff would "withhold al proceedings." On the 9th, however, tke declaration in the action was filed ; and, as there was no defence to the action, judgmei:t was issued on the 11th. On the 23d James Haswell Wli2 numnioned bef.re the Court under the Sinai! Debts Act, to show cata.e why be did not pay the suns of 51., for which judgment had been entered up. Mr. THOMAS contendad tli4t the plaintiff hat!, by proceed ing with the txtior, absolved tho ilefendant fro) liaL lit r. It was now alleged that there had beep a distinct 6E4 of 5/. due from James Haswell, thy gouda go 4 grid tlplivere4. The writ and declaration had been issued for 19/.-las., which would have covered the amount both of the note and the debt; that AlthOugh the declaration was not filed until after the guarantee was gtvon, ).4 p la p thoDlaintiff could not split his claim and proceed fur one paft fully ; apit that as tp pip whole, the plaintiff was debarred from proceeling 'after he had egcOpted a guaratitee to '• withhold all proceedings fur one month," _ _ The Learned COM3iffiSioxite, in etitirsising the jury, seld that the insertion 4'f 19/. 19s. waa merely norninal 2 btit they cou'd not go beyond :401, in this Court. The whole quest:ou for the jury was, whether the guaNntee w a or staying !Cil proceedings, or only the action 4s far as regarth4 the prmips= sory note. Mr. Thous submitted that the declaration was framed t 9 meet the guarantee. The Learned CO3IMISSIONER said it was clearly proved that judgment was entered up for 51. only, although under the same declaration the bill might have bean recovered, The jury consulted for a short time, and then retired for nearly an hour, and gave a verdict for the plaintiff. .I.OiDON STOCK EICHANGE, DfAncz G.

Three cases occurred last week, which, though not of great extent, may be regarded as an indication of the tact we have stated. The trustees of the lackiiito , h Education Fund let part of their land, of which the lease had expired, ia the 'Vicinity of the town, at ten per o nt. higher rent than was paid by the same party for the same laud thirty years ago, when war prices plevalkd. Another lot, belonging to the same trust, was rented at 20 per cent. al•ove the former lease. A third case occurred at some distance &cut the town. A farmer failed, but his neighbours and others, convinced that this was not owing to high rent, and trusting to improved agricultural management, came for ward with applications for the farm ; and it was let at precisely the same rent as before, for which ten or twelve offers were made.— Inverness Couric*. EXPORTATION or BEER.—With reference to an order issued by the Lords of the Treasury in September, 1942, on the sub ject of the exportation of strong beer, the revenue authorities have received a communication front Mr. Cardwal, Secretary to the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, stating that he has been coin mended by their Lordships to acquaint them that the y have autho rised the Commissioners of Excise to permit the exportation of bottled strong beer on drawback, in cases containing two dozen quart or two dozen pint bottles, provided the cases be properly secured, and the quantity of beer expelled at coy One tidal be not less than thirty-six gallon& BO W-STREET.-(TH IS DAY.) A man, who described himself as a tailor, but refused to give any account of himself, - was charged with being a sus pected person, found loitering about opposite Sir Robert Peel's residence, it wi.s supposNl for some unlawful purpose. He was found by a policeman "walking up and down" in frotit of Sir R. Peel's house, and not being able to explain what business he had there, ,he was taken ill charge. The prisoner was charged with a similar offence at this Court in the course of last week, and was then discharged on entering into his own recognizances to keep the peace. He denied that he had any improper motive, and said he was only walking about for his own amusement. He could not understand what was the charge against him, as he was not charged with injuring or obstructing any body. Mr. JARDINE said that, as the prisoner had been charged with the sane offence on a previous occasion, he must now find bail for his good behaviour. He, Mr. Jardine, could not do as he had done on the previous occasion, let the prisoner go upon his own recognizances. The prisoner appeared quite astonished at having to find bail when "there was no charge against him," and was pro ceeding to make a very eloquent oratLn, when his remarks were cut short by the gaoler, who removed him from the dock. We believe the necessary bail was obtained. ~ THE SUN" EXPRESSES. " TIIE SUN" NEWSPAPER.—Through Mr. Gerrish, News Agent here (Devizes), we received copies of the Morning Sun before eight o'clock, within five hours of the termination of the debate, a triumph of speed which a few years ago would have baen deemed impossible. For this act of kindness we are doubly obliged to the spirited proprietor, as it enabled us to give the Mechanics' Institution the benefit of early infor mation by placing a copy on the table of their reading-loom. Wiltshire Independent. EXTRAORDINARY DISPATCH.—The great debate on Friday night, preceding the division which took place at a quarter past three on the following morning, was fully reported in The Sun of Saturday last, accompanied by a clearly written summary, and, by the enterprise of Mr. Murdo Young—one of the great pillars of the B itish press—arrived, by special engine, in Sheffield, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon of the same day. This is a fact in the modern wonders of convey ing intelligence by newspaper which ought not to be for gotten.—Siieffed Iris. " THE SUN" EXPRESS.—The intelligence of the Ministerial majority o❑ the Corn Importation Bill, reached our office at half-past nine on Saturday morning. exactly six hours after the division took place. We were indebted to The Sun newspaper for this express; none of the morning journals arrived until the usual hour.— Nottingham Review. NEWSPAPER ENTERPRIZE.—The quickest transmission of intelligence which we have ever had to Cambridge was effected by The Sun newspaper last Saturday morning. The division on the corn-laws took place a few minutes after three, and at a quarter before six, that is in considerably less than three limas after the division, we had a full report and analysis of the debate, with the division, down in Cambridge. The papers were of course sent by special engine on the rail. —Cambridge Chronicle. _ _ Tus Dthsiox—The result of the division on the corn.law debate, which took place at three o'clock on Saturday, was received here by the train at three in the afternoon—at which hour we were furnished with the whole debate by Mrs. Noble, news-agent, of the Market-place. The Hamburg!' steamer being about to sail for Haniburgh that afternoon, copies of The Sun and Times were sent out by her, and would probably carry the first intelligence to Germany.—Hull Advertiser. " TIIE SUN" EXPRESSILS.—On Saturday morning, shortly after eight o'clock, a copy of that morning's Sun, fmwarded by Murdo Young, Esq., the proprietor, was !eft at our office. containing the close of the great debate in the Howe of Commons, and the division, which took pla:e at half pa-t two o'clock—the house not adjourning till a quarter-past three. The other morning papers also sent expresses, but The Sun was the first delivered, and the first to spread the news along the road. We are greatly indented to Mr. ,Young for his liberal and polite attention, which enabled us, Id so early an hour, to put our readers in possession of such important intelligence.—Norfrlk aironiee. THE DIVISION. ON Tnx CORN-LAW DEBATE.—SPECIAL Exrnesexs ov THE DAILY PAPERS.—In the third edition of our last week's paper we acknowledged the early receipt of The Sun newspaper and of the Daily News, containing the closing speeches of the debate and the division. Both the papers reached Leeds about one o'clock by special engines, and within a few minutes of each other; and we attributed the successful arrangements to air. W. H. Smith, news-agent, of 192, Strand, London. This we learn was an error, the ex presses, in these cases, having been under the sole direction of the newspaper offices. It may, however, be mentioned as an evidence of the vigilance and spirit of Mr. Smith, that the cost of the special engine expresses, furnished by him on other occasions during the debate. alone has amounted to nearly 1,0001. We believe too that the acceleration of trains be tween London and the North, referred to in a paragraph in our SuNdement, is chiefly owing to the representations made by Mr. Smith to Mr. Hudson, M.P. Leeds is among the towns which experience the advantage of this acceleration, the Morning papers of each day arriving now at a quarter to three, instead of a quarter to four P.n. Wonderful as the circumstance of the London Lees being in Leeds so early after its publication in the metropolis would have been thought a few years since, it is thought that arrangements might be made which would bring it still earlier than the present to all parts of the north. Should a plan to effect that object be suggested to the railway autleerities, we hope it will meet with their favourable consideration.—Leeds Mercury. • We have to acknowledge our obligations to Murdo Young, Esq., the spirited proprietor of The Sun, by whose exertions we received, on Saturday evening last, intelligence by express of the division in the House of Commons on Sir Robert Peel's measure.

THE LATE ASSAULT UPON A POOR WOMAN BY ONE or PRINCE ALBERT'S GAMEICEEPERS.—It will be recollected that in September last a gamekeeper named Thomas Topp, in the service of his Royal Highness Prince Albert, was convicted in the penalty of 21. and costs, before the Maidenhead bench of magistrates, of having set a ferocious dog (stated to be a bloodhound) upon a poor woman named Wells, whom the keeper discovered In the royal preserves, near Windsor, in the act of gathering dead wood for firing. The woman stated, in her evidence before the magistrates, that she was very far advanced in pregnancy. It was attempted to be shown by a medical witness, who had been summoned to attend the inquiry by the heed gamekeeper, that the woman's tale of her being in the family-way was entirely without fouttlation. The poor woman, however, after enduring great suffering for upwards of five m on th s (haying been coufined to her room for the last six weeks of that period), was delivered of a male child on Tuesday last, by Mr. Waste'', surgeoe, of Maidenheed. Mrs. Wells is the wife of a labour ing man, and is not only in great distrsss, but In a very precarious state. Tapp was discharged from the service of his Royal Highness Prince Albert shortly after he was convicted of the assault. It is stated that, soon afterwards, hi. obtained a situation in the Excise. THE MIDDLESEX NEW PRISON.—The first stole of the new building, to be called "The Middlesex House of Detention," will be laid during the course of the ensuing =Mb. The prison in spectors have furnished the designs. A correspondent informs us that Mr. Grimsdell, of Sun-street, 13Ishopsgate, is the builder, and that his contract amounts to 30,0061., indepeedent of the old building materials, n Welt are calculated to be of the value of from 10,0001. to 12,0001. The builder is under terms to complete the yrison in eighteen months from the present time. 'the old ,prison, which has been demolished, was erected in the reign of James ROBBERY AT THE APARTMENTS CF LORD BUTIGULEY,.

John's College, Cambridge. The stolen property consisted chiefly of six sets of gold studs, and a number of diamond and other pins. Suspicion is not at present at tached to.any particular individual. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, MARCH 6.--The supplies of all grain are limited, with the exception of Barley, of which the arri val is larger. The market to-day is very bare of fine fresh samples of Wheat, and such are tolerably easy sales at former rates; other sorts without isteniry. Tine Barley scarce, and the turn dearer ;in other qualities no alteration. Beaus rather lower. Oats and Shell ing each maintain the prices of Friday last. Malt as before.

" LOUIS GORZKOWSKI, "JEAN LISSOWSKI, and " ALEXANDRE GRZEGORZEWSKI, • " CHARLES GRZEGORZEWSKI, "Secretary of the Govcrument. "Cracow, Feb. 23, 1846." " lirystoforz was the residence of Joseph Poniatowski, during the campaign of 1809, and is held in respect by the Cracovians. Cracow itself was the cradle of the old Polish monarchy, and capital of the kingdom under the Jagellen race." In addition to the decree above given, it is stated by the Paris Debate that other decrees were issued on the 24th, and among the names attached to them appears that of Count Potnlicki, one of the richest citizens of Poland, Court Wod skid, an 01 soldier, has been named, it is said, Commander of the Guard of Safety of the Republic. The Provisional Government has taken the most urgent mea sures of defence, for on all sides Prussian, Austrian, and Russian forces were marching to crush the insurrection. The Austrian Colonel Hanfeldt, with 400 of the old Cracow militia, have passed over to the new Government. It was said that deser tion had manifested itself in the regiments Mazadulla, and Bertotilli, and that they had been sent away from Gallicia. It was the attempt to destitute this Colonel by the Austrian General, De Collin, which caused The militia to rise, and forced De Collin to retreat to Podgorze. The three Consuls of the Protecting Powers bad retired into Gallicia and Silesia. Their houses were plundered during the first explosion. The insurgent force was said to be twelve thousand, armed with scythes; but the scythe is the national weapon of the Poles, and it was with this arm that they beat the Russians at Radavia, under Kosciusko. The town of Cracow is an open town, without any defence but an old castle on the Podgorze side. In Gallicia, it was said, on the faith of travellers, that the insurgtnts were well armed and furnished with cavalry. JOHN'BULL and JONATHAN POLK. :Jomi BULL—Master Jonathan, you are getting a little bonneible about Oregon. JONATHAN PoLK—Us won't' arbitrate—l guess I would'nt arbitrate whose sovereign this is that I have t4 - ;t in my pocket. J. 13.—You beg the question—we don't dispute your right to anything you are in possession of—we won't call it a soya reign, we'll call it twenty shillings. I have got SDHIB hi my pocket and you have got :wino is yours—u Lat. you have got there may stop there and.what I've got I mean to keep—you want to kick up a bluster and say, you'll take away what I have got. J. I guess the whole twenty shillings is mine and I'll have it—Oregon is ours. J. B.—Don't you wish you may get it. Well, you say it is yours,' I am ready to arbitrate—but you shan't take it away by force. J. P.—We won't arbitrate, it's ours and we'll have it, and now what do you mean to do ? I guess you've got no pluck —look to Ireland—your afear'd to touch us. J. B.—You make me laugh—lreland, indeed—the Irish are a little dissatisfied because they have not had justice den© them—if that is your only hope, a poor weak stick you have got to rest upon. Queen Victoria has not a more loyal set of subjects than the Irish, and they are as gallant as they are loyal—they will never put up with your insulting a woman —their idolized, their beloved Queen—not they— J. P.—Well, and what will you do now—Oregon is ours and we'll keep it—do your best and do your worst—what's your next move ? - J. I3.—What's the next move ?—a pretty fellow you are for a President—you don't know the first then, so I'll tell you—by this time we have got a sufficient force landed to protect our subjects in their rights awl privileges and to maintain the authority •f the Crown of Great Britain— J. P.—lt's all my , ye. I guess— . J. B.—l'm not POLKING fun at you— J. P.—You be though. J. B.—l am nut. J. P.—Then it's a declaration of war? J. B.—No it's not. J.P.—Do you mean to do this, and not declare war? J. B.—l tell you it is done already. What necessity to declare war? If no one meddles with us, we shall not med dle with them. We do not claim the sole right to the coun try; we shall not interfere with the rights of others. if we are molested, we shall not ask whether they are americans, Mexicans, Texiane, or any other countrymen—but at them at ones. We shall not make it an American question, If you choose to declare war with us, because we go to protect our rights, we cannot help that ; we must make the best of it. J. P.—You don't seem to care much about it. We shall have France with us. J. B.—France? Ah, ah I J. P.—Yes, France. J. B.—France, indeed, with you. Why your blustering news about not arbitrating on the Oregon question caused a treater panic on the Paris Bourse !hen it did on the Royal 'xcliange in London; a greater depression in the price of the Frer.ch funds took place than did in the English funds. A war between England and America would hurt France as much as it would do England. France with you ?—you make me laugh. J. P.—Then you acknowledge alwar with us would do you no good? J. B.—God forbid I should think it would. Let any body try to turn us away from Oregon at their peril. J. P.—Us will do the thing, I guess. We'll show our strength. J. 8.--I think you ought to say, your weakness. J. P.—Do you mean to insult our stars? J. B.—No, nor do we mean to insult ourselves; and if you turn us away from Oregon, you must conquer the British nation. J. P.—lt is all nonsense about our wishing to turn your people away from Oregon, they may stay and trade as long as they like ; we shall not trouble them. J. B.—Weil, we shall not interfere with anybody but our own people; and those we will protect. If you don't touch us, we shall not annoy you. J. P.—We shan't annoy any of your people in Oregon. Have you not thousands and tens of thousands of your people in the United States, and do we attempt to annoy them? Not we; but Oregon is ours. J. B.—lf you do not molest us, we shall not he annoyed at your singing out across the water—" Oregon is ours ;" but keep your hands off. J. P.—We won't arbitrate,—Oregon is ours, Oregon is ours,—we Arbil). ik:e. J.13.—N0, nor will you fight, J. P.—Oregon is ours. Ilfracombe, March 6.
