With respect to the second question there would be no objection to lay copies of the ordinances before the House. Mr. ROEBUCK wished to know whether the persons who signed that petition did so as chairman and secre tary of a public meeting? Mr. F.

STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—By the Cambria we learn the effect, in the New York market, of the excess of 44,000 over the estimated stock et Liverpool on the 31st December. No surprise was excited, and cotton receded only ie. per lb. Through the failure of the southern meals, we are again deprived of the list of receipts, S.;c. It appears, h owever, from Mr. W. P. Wright ' s circular, given below, that according to telegraphic information to New York, the receipts at the ports for the week were 110,000 bales against 85,000 last year, and the exports to Great Britain 55,000 against 32,000. By the o ver l and mail we are advised of a healthy state of inthe .Bombay market, and a fair extent of business . piece goods, yet without any improve ment in prices . , which were kept in check by the continued . anxiety to sell evinced by holders For mule twist there was a fair demand at slihtl im proved rates, for 30's to 60's. In water twist there was no change. Exchan ge h a d b een 2s. 1 15-16 d. to 2s. 2d. but declined to 2s. qd. But from Calcutta the accounts are still exceedingly unsatisfactory. Although imports had not been heavy, the stocks on hand were so ex cessive as to keep down the prices of goods at the very lowest point ; and the whole tone of the market was extremely depressed. In yarns there was a giving way in 30's, 40'e, 50'8, 60's, 70' s , and 100's. Mon e y ma tt ers rema i ne d as unsatisfactory as _ever, with great distrust extending beyond the bazaar, precluding advances from the bank an almost any terms. It is stated in some o f th e letter~ newspapers, that another considerable native banker had suspended payment. Exchange was at 2s. 24d. first class credits, and 2s. 2d. for document bills. These ac counts have somewhat modified the stimulus given to our market last week by the American advices. The tone of business has been quieter, and, in general, the extreme rates demanded but not obtained for yarns, on Saturday, have undergone some abatement. Such prices as were obtainable last week and the week before, have, however, been paid to-day for most descriptions, and the day's business is of fair extent. Indeed, such is the demand for 16's to 24's water in the bundle, for 24's warps, and for extra hard-twisted yarn for the Mediter ranean, that the fullest prices of last week are paid. The advance in 40's mule is entirely sustained. Cops are steady at the values of this day week. The Bombay accounts have led to some operations in the lower quali ties of 40-inch shirtings, in addition to those which took place last week, and the very low prices then accepted are now beginning to be declined by sellers. In other goods there is no change of price. They remain quiet. Altogether, we have had a better market than was ex pected at the commencement of the day. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—The flannel market continues dull and languid, with little or no variation in prices. In wool there is no change from the previous week, and the manufacturers continue to buy for immediate use only. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—The preparations we have noticed f or some weeks past for the spring trac e have been furth er d eve l oped; but as yet it is chiefly on speculation, as the manufaturers generally are complaining of the small amount of business doing. The Americans, wh o usua ll y operate pretty freely about this period of the year, are doing comparatively little at pre son t; but more orders from that quarter are looked for. The . strike amongst th e weavers, noticed in our last, ended in their returning to work on the same terms as they came out. Th rown Si lks—There is fair inquiry for fine China and Bengal throwns; but the prices offered are such that the trade cannot replace stocks from present prices of raw material; hence we have bat few transactions to report. Throwsters, however, are well supplied with work at present. Raw Silks—The market continues exceedingly firm; but there are less opera tions the last few d a y s —d oubtles, the approaching public sales exercise some influence. HALIFAX, SATURDAY. —There has been a flat market to-day in our Piece Hall; and scarcely anything has been done, either in plain or fancy goods. The yarn market is dull. The spinners are working up the orders on hand; and the merchants are shy of giving out new ones. Wool is inactive, without any change in the quotations. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.--WO have had a pretty fair attendance at the Cloth Hall to-day. Amongst woollen goods, crapes have been inquired after, and qualities at from 2s. 6d. to 3s. 6d. and as high as 4s. have found purchasers. The fancy trade is at present very dull. There has been more inquiry for wools especially for Port Philip, at from 17RI. to 19P. ourtb Zbition SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. LINCOLN RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

(Sittings at Nisi Prius at Westminster, before the Loan CHIEF BARON and a Common Jury. ) WITHERS V. P OPLE. This was an action to recover co mpensation in damages for an assault. Mr. Sergeant Miller and Mr. Miller appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Humfrey and another Learned Gentleman for the defendant. In stating the case-to thgziaPt-Bsta i jk sim a c i at Au er the plaintiff, Ellen Withers verYliat. unmanly assault committed upon her by the defendan, under the following circumstances. The plaintiff was now, in consequence of the misfortunes of her youth, excluded from ordinary society, and, owing to the example of persons who first led her astray, was in the habit of occasionally attending then taverns which were unfortunately the haunts of persons who indulged in dissipation and debauchery. The defendant kept a house of this description in Bow-street; it was a kind of " tap" or appendage to a tavern well-known as the " Garrick's Head," and was what was called a " night house." On the evening of the 9th of Octob er l ast she went to this place for the purpose of meeting an acquaintance, named Mrs. Wood. She had previously been in the habit of going there to see Mr. Lacy, the defendant's predecessor in the•house, who was a jobbing master, and let out flys and other vehicles. She occasionally hired flys from him to go to the races, and other places of amusement. The defendant, on the evening in question, had been spending some; hours at Cremorne- gardens, and on arriving home the plaintiff was at the bar with some other parties. Some conversation arose between them with respect to Mr. Lacy and Mrs. Wood. It would appear that at this time the defendant was in liquor, otherwise he could not account for his brutal conduct. There, however, could be no doubt that the plaintiff used some very improper language to him, but the house was one in which language of that description was too frequently heard and tolerated. Indecent songs were also sung for the entertainment of the guests, and the defendant permitted and indulged in such exhibitions; therefore, whatever excuse a person of moral and regular conduct might have for giving vent to his anger on hearing disgraceful language used, it could hardly be said that that excuse applied to a person like the defendant, who kept a house of the description mentioned. When per sons found themselves in such abodes of vice, they were apt to forget themselves and use l angu age which oth erw i se they would be ashamed of. The defendant desired her to quit the house. She refused, and said he might turn her out if h e liked, whe reu p on he seized hold of her by the neck, and thrust her out of the door into a filthy narrow passage which ran by the side of the house. He here shook her violently, and not content with that, threw her on the ground. She was completely rolled in the mud, and had a new silk dress and shawl entirely spoilt, and in addition lost a valuable gold ring from her finger. The plain tiff did not attempt to justify the immoral expression she applied to the defendant, but, though regretting her con duct in th a t respect, she said he was not warranted in using such unnecessary violence. The question was not whether the defendant was justified in turning her out, but whether his conduct in doing so amounted to an assault at law, for which a person was entitled to ask for compensation. He hoped that, because the plaintiff had the misfortune to be sunken in vice, and to be shut out from the society of her friends, and that of the respectable portion of the community, the jury would not shrink from giving her that protection from violence and injury that they would to any respectable member of the community. The plaintiff was then placed in the box, she was young, well-attired, and rather good-looking, and gave her evi dence with much sang-froid. Her account of the occur rence tallied with the statement of the Learned Counsel. In cross-examination, she admitted that she slept with a young lady of her acquaintance on the night of the assault at a common brothel in Hart-street. She had been drinking rather freely of wine, but was not intoxicated. She did not like to repeat the words she used to the defendant, but he ejected her soon after she uttered them. She instructed her attorney to bring the action on the day following the assault. She had seen him two or three times previously at some hotels. She did not think she was bound to answer wham Sticsiiiid met him at the Prince_of Wales' Hotel in-akivatreet, Regidtt-ateeet;' Wad seen ladies there, but not women of the town. She did not know that . l it was a common brothel. He gave her a cheque, which her doctor got cashed. She never said to a Mr. Van derstein, on showing him the cheque, 44 thi s i s th e way I go to nor did she tell him that whichever way the verdict went, her solicitor would hold her harmless. Was she bound to answer whether he gave her any more money? He might have given her a sovereign to pay a cab home. She might have recei ve d two sovereigns. She would not swear: she cif not rece i ve any more money. Ten pounds was about the whole. She had herself paid her 10/. to carry on the action. Mr. llusiraey, for the defence, characterised the action as one of the most extraordinary that had ever been brought in a court of justice. The plaintiff was a ros tit u te, and the ac tion was evidently brou g ht b y the attorney for the sake of costs. Such disgracefulproceedings - of this kind were cal culated to throw discredit on the administration of justice in this country, and scandal on the profession of the law. The very fact of the plaintiff being ashamed to repeat her con versation at the tavern showed that the defendant was bound out of respect for his own feelings and those of his customers to remove her from the house, and this he did with no more violence than was necessary. The Learned JUDGE having summed up the case, The Jury found a verdict for th e defendant. ar said AMERICAN NEWS • LIVERPOOL, W E DNESDAY,---Th o s hip Atlantic has just arrived with dates from New American steam- York to the 24th ult.

" 3 - Ken- Lord SEYMOUR, before answering th e questio wished to correct his Noble Friend in given to him. He was no longer t he Chief Commission er of Woods and Forests, but the Chief Commissioner of Works, as provided for in the Act of last session.— (Hear and a laugh.) With reg ard to the signature of the three Commissioners, his N oble Friend' was aware that it was not necessar y that th ree Commissioners should sign any report to the Treasury, and two Commissioners had always been considered sufficient.—(Hear, hear.) It was usual, ho wever, for th e three Commissioners to biota the report in thi s i nstance; but Mr. Kennedy who had not signed the repo r t Was not a member of the Commission until si x months of the year had elapsed to which the report applied.—(Hear, hear.) It was true that Mr. Kennedy did nut approve of some parts of t he re p o rt , butA never theless he had signed the accounts, which , a f ter all, proved the most i m portant part of the re port , —(Hear. Lord DUNCAN gave notice that next week h e should move fur the production of any Paper whi c h Could explain the reason why Mr. Kennedy had not signed the report. THE CAPE. Mr. ADDERLEY wished to ask the U nder - S ecretary of ,Stat e f or the Colon i eF, whet h er 3 petition has b een teoeiTed et th e Colonial -efhoe from Palitibitibute of the lONIAN ISLANDS. Mr. HUME gave notice that to-morrow ho should ask a question respecting the Government of the lonian Islands. INCOME AND PROPERTY-TAX. Mr. HUME also gave notice that he should ask a question respecting the intention of the Government to alter the rating of the income-tax.—(Cheers.) BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS. Mr. CHISHOLM ANSTEY wished to know whether there was any provision made in the proceed ings of the Government for preventing bribery at elec tionsL Mr. CarNrif 'ALL 'LEWIS said": that by the Act upon the subject it was enacted that every person guilty of bribery and corruption was liable to be tried for high crimes and misdemeanours. The Government were quite ready to answer the question. Mr. HUME could only refer to the standing orders, which completely settled that question. VOTING MONEY AFI'ER MIDNIGHT. Mr. HUME moved an amendment to the Standing Orders, to the effect that no vote in Committee of Sup ply should be taken after midnight. It had been the practice for four or five sessions to vote money after twelve o'clock, when the House was nearly empty. This practice did not redound much to the credit of the House, which was supposed to hold the purse strings of the country. It was invidious for a single Member to get up in nearly an empty house and oppose a vote, especially as the Govern ment were sure to urge the necessity of agreeing to it. When the Tories were in office he never allowed a single farthing to be voted after twelve o'clock, and he blamed himself for relaxing his line of conduct in regard to the present Government. It was not fair play to treat the two parties differently. He, therefore, hoped the House would agree to the amend ment. Colonel SIBTHORP supported the proposition. Mr. CORNE WALL LEWIS hoped the House would not agree to tho amendment. He thought that on look ing back to the proceedings of the Committee of Supply, no practical inconvenience or abuse had arisen to justify the House in determining that no votes should be pro posed after twelve o'clock. Mr. HUME said that it would be better to establish a general rule, and exception could be made whenever there was occasion. He considered the matter of so much importance that he should divide the House. The House then divided, when there appeared— For the amendment Against it 146 Majority The amendment was consequently lost. Mr. BROTHERTON announced that it was not his intention this year to propose his annual motion that the House should terminate its sittings every night at twelve o'clock. THE HOUSE OF COMMONS' KITCHEN. Mr. STAFFORD moved that a Standing Committee be appointed to control the arrangements of the kitchen and refreshment rooms in the department of the Ser geant-at-Arms attending this House:—Lord Marcus Hill, Mr. Mackenzie, Mr. Dawson, Mr. Alderman Hum phery, and Mr. Stafferd: three to be the quorum. Mr. F. FRENCH considered this was a very important motion, and one in which the House was deeply interested.—(A laugh.) Hitherto the House had not been well used in the Committee, and notwithstanding that 400. a year was allowed for ser vants, besides lights and coal, Members were very heavily charged for what they had in the dining room attached to the House.—(Hear, hear.) Now why should the charges of the kitchen be higher than those of a well-regulated club, and yet Members wore charged 6 a bottle for sherry, that really was not worth 3s. —(Hear, hear, and laughter.) The House might laugh, but if these impositions were got rid oe, and the tables in the dining-rooms were wall arranged and kept constantly supplied with °loan cloths, there would be fewer countings out than there had been of late years.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) Under the present system many Members were forced to dine at their° clubs, wh en t h e y wou ld p re f er dining and remaining in the House.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. C. ANSTEY found fault with the Committee because there was no Roman Catholic upon (Laughter.) How could a Pr o t estant Comm i tteee ma ke the necessary provision for a Friday's dinner for a Ro man Catholic?—(Renewed :laughter.) He, therefore, moved that the name of a Roman Catholic Member be added to the Committee.—(Hear, hear.) The SPEAKER told the Hon. and Learned Member that he could not make that motion without notice. Mr. A, STAFFORD admitted that there was good cause for these complaints; but with regard to the abuses of the kitchen, the Committee had delayed making the necessary reforms until they had got corn fortablyalitb the new House. The tion was agreed to. read ESS. the report s 7 '1 V, AI E F K O E R R T w o a s N pTroliceEedA in D g D to ß wh Il it W. R. Bulkeley brought up. r. HUME rose and said that he did not wish to say anything that could possibly be detrimental to the p ublic service, but ho did not, at the same time, conceive that he should be doing his duty if he did not also say that there were many things of which he had to Comp lain. When he last night left the House, it certainl y wus to all perception comfortable, but when he got into the open air he found that it was sufficiently keen to render the difference very perceptible, even if it was not in jurious. He bad. however, found it injurious. He would not say from what cause, but it certainly was evident that some great mischief had arisen. The House last night was too hot from one cause or another. —(Cheers and laughter.) Ho thought that some alte ration ought to he made, but on that ho would not give any opinion. —(Hear, hear.) The House was certainly worthy of approbation in some senses, but he found it quite unfit for the purposes for which it wee built.—(Hear, hear.) Some years ago he had complained in Parliament of the public works which were at that time being exercised under the direction of Mr. Nash, A committee of equiry had been instituted, and the consequence was that Mr. Nash was removed from his place, and Mr. Blore, whose abilities all could appreciate, was substituted in his stead.—(Hear, hear.) The same defect in the public administration of affairs seemed to exist now. They had had abundance of ornament and plenty of consideration, every opportunity for ability, but what was the result? Why, a House far too small for the Members to meet in, a number of ornaments, but nothing fit for its purpose.—Hear, hear.) There were, it was trne, the painted windows.—(Hear, hear.) All very well in their way, but quite inappropriate for the meetings of a legislative assembly. In fact they reminded him of nothing more or less than the sign of the Red Dragon at Brentford.—(Hear, hear, and laugh ter.) He saw around him the impresss of much taste but little judgment; and the fact was that the money of the country was being lavished for useless purposes. No man knew better than the Noble Lord (Lord John Russell) the principles of the Constitution, and he hoped he would not disappoint the expectations which the country had formed of him. Ho was sorry to find that a large portion of the wealthy and influential classes was not in favour of that extension of the suf frage which Reformers thought was necessary. They perhaps feared that a more liberal franchise might overturn our constitution which had withstood so many storms and adversities, but he would tell them that when peace and tranquility existed , they o ught t o _ concede to the great body of the people those politica l rights which they were entitled to possess. Wl2e s. he dreaded most was, large numbers of c . i! contented artizans, who were denied e the privileges of citizens, and bad no voice elcNoble the Legislature. He trusted sincerely that t restly Lord's Bill would give satisfaction. He was t at disappointed that the promises of the Governme E Eu - e governments, our coloeies should have represent at iv e bad been had not been fulfilled.

Both country were equally interested in the preservation of peace, and he could see no cause which could possibly disturb it. He for one should endeavour to prevent any additional expense being„ incurred, until that force which the country possessed was collected and put to its best use. Mr. B.

Sir,—The explanations of the resignation of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, accord exactly with the first intimations of the public press. In Nov. 1851 the Prime Minister, in the exercise of th e superintendence acknowledged to be his duty, gave a general warning to all departments of the diplomatic service, to be careful to do nothing which could be con strued into interference with the internal affairs of France; the object at that time specially in his eye, being the likelihood of disturbances connected with the elec tion of President in 1852. The conspiracy in France took effect on the 2nd of December; and in two or three days thereafter, the Foreign Minister, or the English Amb assa d or, or both together, or one by direction of the other, contrived to let the French Ambassador announce the assurance of the " complete approbation" of the English Government to what had been done by the President. Read the accounts of the proceedings one by one, be ginning with the kidnappings of the night, and going on to the massacres of the day, and at every step reflect on the portentous mistake, by which to this the " com plete approbation" of the English Government was expressed. It had been so with ue, had there been an " antagonism" between the House of Commons and the Executive on a Reform Bill. Michael Cassio may hive been misled; but " never more be officer of mine." The Prime Minister's case would have been trium phant, if he had not let it down by dilating on his be lief that the French President meant it all tor the best. So did the man that died on Wednesday. It might be right to preserve a negative; but there was no need to split hairs to set up a hypothetical defence for the greatest criminal in ancient or modern history. The argument also that no interruption of amicable relations with France need be feared, because England and France are both of them wise nations, was singularly ineffective when all the wisdom in France has just been swept into the kennel, to make way for the fancies of a Grand .Regulateur, , whom no man ever suspected of being wise. The inference from the whole is, that the people must take care of themselves. Between those who" completely approve," and those who confide in good intentions, there appears to be no other resource. If the Govern ment and the House of Commons think to escape by eating humble pie and denying the danger, it will fail as it always does. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN OLD REFORMER. Blackheath, 4 Feb. 1852. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, HOUSE OF COMMONS, Feb. 3. NEW WRITS.

DEBATE ON Ta The SPEAKER having E ADDRESS. read the Royal Speech from the throne, Sir R. 13. BULIiELEY, wb uniform, then appeared in military rose to move i the Address, and begged i the indulgen ce of the who h a d ou on behalf of one, never ventured - to obtrude himself upon it before, when he was about to advert to subjects of orei • ordinary time nary importanc e i n no • (near.) He then o b serve d that the Member who moved s. the Address was generally considered an uncompromising supporter of the Government. That he owned was precisely his own position.—(Hear.) lie had been in Parliament many years, and during that time he had seen many advantageous measures introduced for the benefit of the people, and also many instills ' tions improved and extended—(Hear , hear)—and they had at last achieved a degree of prosperity which, in his consciende, he believed had never been ex pelled.—(Cheers.) The throne had never been better supported, the Estalished Church had in erased its usefulness, her revenues had been more equitably distributed and her duties more rigidly enforced; hundreds of churches had grown up, and thousands of the lower orders had been added to their congregations. Education had been more widely ex tended and reduced to something like a system. Commerce had been enlarged and commercial monopoly removed. —(Cheers.) They had been preserved from European wars, and maintained domestic tranquillity, and, above all, the social condition of the people had been improved, for without such improvement it was worse than useless to attempt to improve their morals.—(Hear.) These blessings and improvements he ascribed to -the sound policy and enlightened views of a Liberal Administration, an d he, as a Reformer, would consider himself unjust if h e did not claim for the Noble Lord at the head of the Government the chief share of the merit in bringing T o his unflinching adv ocacy about such happy results. and his strong constitutional liberal sympathies he as. cribed the success of those measures which first extended political rights and then improved the social condition of the great masses of the people of this country . These, then, were the reasons why for twenty years he had been a humble but not less anxious supporter of tho Noble Lord and his Administration ; and these were the reasons r , hick induced hi m on t h e present occasion to undertake u task from which ho would otherwise have willingly shrunk.—(Hear.) The lion. Member then alluded to the paragraph in the Royal Speech, stating that her Majesty had assur ance of the most friendly relations with foreign , powers. That was, ho said, most acceptable informatidn to the country at large.—_ (Hear.) It was the interest of the country, as well as the wish of the people . ; that we should remain at Peace."7olear.) When revolutions surrounded them, and there were struggles going on he tweeu the people on the Que baud, who desired liberty I
