The House of Lords did not meet yesterday. In the House of Commons, the Severn Navigation Bill was thrown out on the second reading by a majority of 33. The second reading of the Bath and Weymouth Railway Bill was postponed for a fortnight. Mr. BUCKINGTIAM moved the second reading of the Mer chants' Shipping Bill ; but subsequently withdrew it, in order to rectify an informality. The object contemplated by Mr. Buckingham's Bill is to provide against shipwrecks and loss of life, so frequent in the Merchant service of this country. Mr. Hums: moved the second reading of the County Rates Bill. A long protracted discuszion ensued, the result of which, as shown by the division that took place, was the re jection of the proposed measure. The object of the Bill is to direct that a Board for the management of the County Rates shall by elected by the rate-payers, instead of the controul of their funds being left to the Magistrates, as at present. A majority of 93 declared in favourof Magisterial might, assert ing by their votes the true Tory principle of non-elective ir reiponsihility, in opposition to wholesome controul and po pular rights. The line of policy which the Tories have within a few weeks adopted points out in a manner not to he misunderstood the desperate condition to which they are reduced, and the unconstitutional means which they are ready to use for the sake of recovering, office. Their plan is to rule the country by the House of Lords, setting the voice of the people and the cgreat urljority of their representative 3 at defiance. N,A withstandinq• the solemn asseveration of Sir R. PEEL at Merchant Tailor's-hall, that the battle must be decided in the Commons, he now turns round, as he has turned round on every important public que,,tion, and tells the Government and tire Com'uons of Eng land that a measure which they have repeatedly sanc tioned by majorities, varying from 55 to 86, shall not pass in another place, unless that House of Co 7rnons revoke a vote which they came to on due deliberation, and en the full conviction that it was absolutely ne cessary for the peace of Ireland. That is the way in which this wavering, timid, and plausible Statesman to fight the battle of his party in the House of Commons. Whatever he may say to the con:rary, place is the great object of his ambition. Of this he and his friends dream by night and speak by day, and no event can happen but their jaundiced eyes see in it the downfall of the Ministry, and their own darling object in the perspective. With this House of Com mons, or any House that can be summoned together, they know that the Reform Bill, and the En , Ebb and Scotch Municipal Bills, have deprived them of all hopes of success. On every great question, the majority of the representatives of the people elected under a Tory Government have been decidedly opposed to them—they have tried the aid of the Court in vain—they sec no chance of increasing their strength by a dissolution—and they have come to the unconstitutional determination of ruling by means of the House of Lords, or putting a stop to public busi ness. The country in clue time will judge of their condue : they will see what faith is to be placed in a leader who has broken • the most solemn engage ment, and who, with all his hypocritical cant about disinterested motives and sense of public duty, is ready to make every sacrifice, and throw the country into confusion, solely for the sake of place. Among liberal men, among all who are not blinded by political zeal and self-interest, there is but one opinion of the conduct of Sir ROBERT PEEL, and of the pitiable exhibition he made on Tuesday night, in reply to the powerful, cutting, and unanswerable speech of Lord JOHN RUSSELL.. It was a con temptible imitation of Lord LYNDHURST'S speech at the close of last session—contemptible because it was ill-timed, not founded on truth, and had neither the merit of force nor of originality. The ostensible leader of a party became the miserable imitator of a man whose violent language he had not the courage to defend, or even palliate, in the House of Commons. Lord LYNDHURST treated the Ministry with scorn, with a view to show that the House of Lords was still too powerful for a Reformed House of Commons. Sir R. PEEL pursued exactly the same course, and treated with similar scorn a House of which he was a Member, and by whose decision he had solemnly avowed his deter mination to stand or fall. And then, what meant the futile declamation against Ministers, because the King of the FRENCH could not form a Ministry—because there was a bad Government, and bad Generals in Spain—because the three great despotical Powers in 'Europe were not favourable to a liberal Govern ment in England ; and—last of all—because, after five years of unexampled prosperity—ever since the reins of Government fell from his feeble hands, in 1830, some commercial embarrass ment had arisen, from causes over which the Administration had no controul ? Why did he not also bring in the destitution in the Highlands—the cold season, and the influenza ?—and why' did he not go the whole length of his prototype, and denounce the Irish as aliens in blood and religion ? But Sir ROBERT PEEL iS destitute of ori zinality—he has been dragged along all his poli tical life by friend or foe—by the Duke of WEL LINGTON at one time, by Lord LYNDHURST at an other, and by the Whigs in every other great measure carried by the House of Commons. Lord LYNDHURST is now the star of attraction ; with that consistent personage as his leader, they are now to involve the KING in difficulties, and then attempt to recover office a Veirtlfil i wke of public duty." Z. 4 • ..,---jl44.4:3ti's County-rate Bill, was discussed at -I. ;t''onle s ', - 10 . 4.iii-ift, the House of Commons last night, and *ts itt e.4 9 % ja pregnant example of the happy effect groyi , ,, t . $. l /making men judges in their own case. v <syA;, AL a - When a culprit is arraigned before himself, there is a singularly cautious tenderness in dealing with the evi dence, and such a thing as a conviction is so rare, -that we never recollect to have heard of one solitary :instance. 'We suppose there must be some foundation :in the constitution of human nature for this propensity :in favour of self, and that therefore the framers of ou r British Constitution laid it down as a fundamental :maxim, that the judge, the jury, and the delinquent :should always be three separate and distinct parties. :Let us see how the opposite principle has worked in :the case before us. Great complaints have been made of the heavy bur den imposed in the shape of County-rates upon a considerable portion of the community. So severely has this pressure been felt by the agriculturists, that they have made it a specific cause of the distress for •which they claimed Parliamentary relief. Now, this County-rate differs in this respect from all other Rates, that those who pay it have no voice, either in laying it on, or laying it out. The :Magistrates—the great unpaid as they are called— , assess, levy, and expend the money required for County purposes, without being responsible to any 'ut themselves. Is this a safe practice ? Why, it may be asked, is the great Constitutional principle .of " no taxation without representation" here set at nought ? Has any reason been assigned, or can any reason be assigned, why there should be a special ex emption in this case ? We have heard of none— most certainly there was none struck out in the edify ing collision which took place last night among the Representatives of the people. When Mr. HUME proposes to give the rate-payers some controul over the expenditure of their own money, what is the reply ? This—it is an insult to the magistracy of England to suppose that they do - not economise the funds of the tate-payers as carefully, as scrupulously, as they themselves would do ! And those who give this reply are the magistrates, who choose to be thus insulted. We have here a second edition of the Corn-law busi ness, with this difference in favour of the framers of the bread-tax, that they, when they made a law to take money out of the pockets of the people to put into their own, though nominally the representatives of the people, were only the representatives of their own breeches' pockets ; whereas those, who last night denied the right of the people to call them to account for the way in which they have spent the public money entrusted to their charge, are the Members of a reformed Parliament I I There were some Hon. Gentlemen who on this oc casion pretended that they quite approved of the principle of Mr. HumE's Bill ; but yet must vote against it on account of the details. This is by pocris:i of the worst stamp. It is a mean and cowardly attempt to disguise their hostility to the principle under a false pretence ; because the second reading, which was the point at issue, went no farther than to establish the principle, and did not bind them to one single matter of detail. The plain and obvious course of every sincere well-wisher to the principle was to have voted for the second reading of the Bill ; and if the details could not he so adjusted as to satisfy him in the succeeding stage, he would have been at perfect liberty to have opposed the measure. We cannot omit noticing the more than usual de (Tree of spite towards his former colleagues, which the Nob:e Dilly-driver manifested in his opposition to this measure. It is, however, to be borne in mind that a re negade is always the most rancorous in his hatred of those who adhere to the principles which he him self has deserted. Mr. E. STANLEY gave tins very pert and equally shallow personage a very exemplary strianning. The sixth repot t of the Committee on public peti tions presented to the House of Commons made the , number of petitioners against the abolition of Church rates amount to 9,595, and the petitioners against Church-rates to 190,981. The seventh and latest report makes the former amount altogether to 73,941, and the latter to 309,959—thereby showing that not withstanlng the influence of the bishops, the exertions of the clergy, and the disgraceful nodes of getting up petitions, the number of petitioners in favour cf the Bill has been nearly the double of those opposed to it. The number of petitions on each side is pearly equal, while the signatures of those who petition voluntarily exceeds the signatures of those interested in abuses, or deceived )v the Clergyman, in the proportion of four to one. Can a stronger proof be required of the state, of public feeling on the question ? -If we throw out of account all those who signed, because they did not wish to sec the parish church in ruins, and the graves of their forefathers desecrated —all those who share in the plunder of the rates— that plunder amonnting to about 300,0001. a year, and those who have an interest in Church lands, or who are keeping their eyes fixed on the vast patro nege of the Bishops, what a miserable list of names would be exhibited to the public I As it is, not one parish in ten has yet sent up Pe titions, and these Petitions are signed at an ave ' rage by about eighty persons each. If the Church really is in danger, as the Bishops say, how few arc prepared to come forward for her protection ? But this shows, beyond the possibility of doubt, that the great body of the people v.ew the question in its proper light—that they see no danger to the Church of Eng land or the interests of religion, but that they consi der the Church property sufficiently ample to provide for the Establishment without a yearly tax on the inha bitants of half a million sterling. The whole of the Paris Papers of Tuesday have been received. France is still without a Ministry. On Monday evening Marshal So ULT and M. THIERS had a second interview with the KING, which is sup posed to have terminated in an abrupt breaking off of all further negotiations for the re-construction of the Cabinet. According to the Opposition Journals M. THIERS insisted on so many concessions being made to him, before he would take charge of the Portefeuille of the Interior, that the KING lost his temper so far as ironically to thank the ex- Premier for not making his abdication one of the conditions of his service. We vouch not for the authenticity of this anecdote, nor for that of any of the various rumours which the visits of M. THIERS at the chateau have put in circulation. That M. TRIERS will impose hard conditions upon the KING is no more than the latter must be prepared to expect. THIERS was duped, betrayed, and sacrificed before by his Royal Master ; and with the experience he has had of the little reliance that can be placed on the KING'S word, it would be passing strange did he not insist upon such conditions as would serve ter shield him self from the further effects of Royal duplicity. When Minister of the Interior, he was, by the KING'S or ders, kept in ignorance of the affairs of his department, which were secretly transacted in private interviews be tween his MAJESTY and M. GASPARIN, then Minis ter of Police. As Secretary for Foreign Affairs, the KING thwarted every liberal measure he proposed, and only permitted him to make promises, with a view to convince Europe that he lacked the power of performing them, and that, in fact, Louis PHILIPPE was both King and Cabinet. M. TRIERS has forgotten nothing of all this. He knows too, as well as any man in France, that the KING dislikes and fears him, and he returns the royal aversion with a Jew's per tentage of interest. It is reported that (luting his interview with the KING on Monday, he refused to enter the Cabinet except on the following conditions :-1. That he should be Mi nister for Foreign Affairs. 2. That France should adopt a policy towards Spain as liberal as that of Eng land, and as constitutionally efficacious. 3. That he should be allowed to declare in his public capacity that France would never permit Don CARLOS to ascend the Spanish Throne. 4. That he should have for his colleagues SOULT, HUMANN, PASSY, and some others whom he named, provided they were willing to take office with him. And, finally, that he should be free to inform the Chambers of the condi tions upon which he accented office ; the policy he proposed to pursue ; the measures past or pending of which he disapproved; and the conditions upon which he would consent to retain the direction of pub lic affairs. The KING could not stomach such hard terms as these, and in a moment of passionate excite ment is reported to have addressed M. TRIERS in the terms quoted above. M. DUPIN, President of the Chamber of Deputies, had an interview with the KING on Monday. That it had relation to the re-construction of the Cabinet was generally believed ; but it is more likely that it was connected with the arrival in Paris of M. DE LUTTEROTH, First Secretary of the French Embassy at Berlin, with the ratification Of the marriage con tract between the Duke of ORLEANS and the Prin cess Of MECKLENBURGII SCHWERIN. Whatever was the subject of conversation between his MAJESTY and the President, the latter left the Palace in a fit of ill-humour. This is nothing remarkable. M. DUPIN is proverbial for the testiness of his temper, and the bitterness of his sarcasms. The KING humours him a good deal, and no man understands. how to do so more successfully ; but there are occasions when it is impossible to avoid displeasing him. The following extracts from the Journals contain the only intelligence received this morning from the North of Spain. Theteather is dreadfully severe in the Basques. On Monday there was a heavy fall of snow in Paris, which recommenced with increased severity on Tuesday, at noon. The vine-growers anticipate a bad season ; and in every part of France, the bad ness of the weather for so many months has greatly depressed the hopes of the agricultural population. Marshal Soult and M. Thiers have had to-day another con ference at the Tuileries. Their combination has failed, as we predicted. It seems, however, that the Crown does not de sire to have recourse to the Doctrinaire Ministry, at least for the moment ; and M. Mole is commissioned to attempt some new combination. The marriage contract of the Duke of Orleans and the Princess Helen has been received to day, signed by the Princess and her family. M. Dupin was sum moned to the palace at one o'clock, to be made acquainted with it. The Council of Ministers met this evening for the same purpose.—Jovnal du Commerce. The Constitutionnel say s that the " Marshal and M. Thiers, taking leave of the King, said that their mission was fulfilled, and that they had nothing to add to what they had said. His Majesty declared that he must consider further. He had not taken any resolution this evening. lie desired to see Marshal Soult to- morrow, at ten o'clock." A letter from Pampeluna, of the 4th, says—" The offen sive movements of our army are decidLd, but the excessive cold which prevail delays the execution of it. General Irribaren is at the ads anced p-sts ; he continues to station his troops at intervals on the line of Val Carlos. Bri g adier- General Conrad's Le gion, which forms the left of th; line, is placed on the two sites of the road from Uarte to Puente la Reyna ; its outposts extend to the place where that road meets the road from Estella. Irribaran's intention is to advance towards Irun, and thus connect his operations with those of Evans. This combination will shortly lead to the attack on Elisondo, the basis of the operations on the f. ontier line. Saarsfield hrs recovered from his illness, but says that re taining the vice- royalt.: of Navarre, be leaves to Irriblrren the command of the Corps of Operations, which, however, will remain subject to his orders —Journal du Commerce. /IIENCH FCNDS.—Pskis, APRIL it Five per Cents., (ff. ;Pc. 6,:c. 9. c. 80c.

On the 8111 instant, a deputation from both Cham beriwaited on King LEOPOLD, to congratulate him on the birth of the young Prince. The QUEEN is doing well. The snow was so deep in Belgium as to stop the running of the diligcnces between Brussels and Na mur. In the neighbourhood of Liege, the snow was twelve feet deep, and continued to fall without inter mission. Trade of every kind was stopped, and it had become necessary to employ a company of Sappers and Miners to recover vehicles lost on the roads. The oldest inhabitants do not remember such a dreadful a storm at so advanced a season of the year. The German journals contain no news of any in terest. In one we find a long article in defence of the political system of the reigning Dpke of MoDENA, upon which we are not disposed to offer any comment. The Duke may be an excellent private individual; but he is only known in England for the countenance which a venal press received from him when attacking the free institutions of this country. LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S OFFICE, APRIL 13.- Notice is hereby given that his Majesty will hold a Levee at St. James's Palace on Wednesday next, the 19th instant, at two o'clock, and on every succeeding Wednesday, till further orders. THE LATE LADY DE L'ISLE AND DUDLEY.— The wedding of this much-regretted lady with Lord de L'lsle and Dudley, then Capt. Philip Sidney, was solemnised on the 13th August, 1825, and the ceremony was graced by the presence of the Dukes of York and Sussex, and the fair bride was given away by his Royal Highness the Duke of York. Such was the anxiety of her ladyship's illustrious relatives at Windsor Castle to learn her state, that expresses were sent off on Monday night from Kensington Palace, when it became evident that she was in imminent danger; and at nine P.M., on Tuesday, the medical gentlemen► in attendance on her ladyship arrived at the Castle with theynelancholy intelligence of her demise. Lady de L'lsle was said to be the favourite daughter of her Royal father, and occasionally, it is stated in the circles of the court, acted as his amanuensis. She has left a numerous family of infant children to deplore her loss. Lord de L'lsle is descended through his grandmother from the celebrated house of Sydney, Earls of Leicester, whose gene alogical roll exhibits two of the brightest names in English history, Sir Philip and Algernon Sidney. It having been re ported that the late Lady de L'lsle died from the effects of her confinement, which took place five weeks ago, we are en abled to state that she had recovered remarkably well from her accouchement, and was able to see her friends in her drawing-room. Repeated attacks of influenza had weakened her lungs and left a cough, which the state of the atmosphere suddenly aggravated in the middle of last week, and fatal effusion into the chest rapidly took place on Monday morning. Lord De Grey received, on Monday last, the mem bers and friends of the Institute of British Architects, as Pre sident of that Society. His Lordship had also invited several of the nobility and gentry distinguished by their love of archi tecture, who were present, as also the leading members of the other scientific institutions of the metropolis. The whole suite of rooms, both on the entrance and principal floors, were thrown open on this occasion, and were admired for the ability and taste with which they had been arranged and fitted up. The health of the Duchess de St. Leu is not in so alarming a state as has been reported. Dr. Lisfranc enter tains hopes that the painful operation be was sent for to per form will not be necessary.

We have received Jamaica papers of the 28th Feb., from which we extract the following : " THE CURRENCY.—Since the enactments of our Legis lature at its last meeting, confirming the Colonial Bank Charter in this island, and incorporating our Local Bank, we have scarce taken any part in the contentions of the advocates of these rival Banks upon the Currency question. If an at tempt had not been made by our Legislature in the last week to disturb the present national currency of the country—if the Colonial Bank had not chosen to make its notes payable in dollars, which are foreign coin, which was regarded and dealt with in this island as an article of merchandise—it should be made to abide the consequences. We certainly should not upset the currency for its accommodation by the substitution of dollars. The attempt must introduce the greatest confusion arid dismay into every department of business in the island, and more especially among the labouring classes who are familiarized with the British coin, and receive it for wages. Dollars are proposed for the current coin, with which 45 shillings are to be of equal value. " ST. KlTT's.—\Vc regret to state that the small pox is spreading, and has proved fatal in some cases. A vessel has been dispatched to Barbadocs to procure vaccine matter. " THE CROPS.—From the very favourable season we have every reason to expect that the ripening canes will yield an abundant crop this year ; weliave not heard of any estates, at least near town, having commenced crop; yet the planters arc sanguine, on the whole, of making good returns. " BERMUDA.—We are happy to state that the Royal Ga zette contains a gratifying picture of the political condition, and prospects of the island. Trade has revived, commerce has increased ; the pe.asantry are peaceable, and pursuing their labours." THE FUND!. Nothing of an official shape has as yet transpired respecting the intention of the Bank Directors in regard to the appli cation of the Liverpool deputation; and it is not supposed they will succeed without offering good security on the lo:n required by them. We are still without the arrival of the six packet-ships from America, although the Jamaica mail has arrived, after a fair passage ; therefore we may hope for the arrival of some of them to-morrow.

A letter from Pampeluna, of the 4th April, states that eleven prisoners of the French Legion have been shot, by the order of the Pretender. This conduct is attributed to the advice of the German officers from Prussia, and officers arrived at Estella, to serve in the cause of Don Carlos. It was reported by the persons who surrounded Don Carlos, that the Northern Powers would soon recognise him as King of Spain. In the meantime, they have sect him money awl officers. There arc also observed in the °amp of Don Carlon cavern). Fe...nehmen, and the French frontier is badly guarded. HALF-PAST ONE. In the retreat of the French Legion under the command of Gencral Irriharren, to Pampeluna, great bravery was displayed, both by the officers and men. Two of his battalions were cut off by the Carli. , ts ; but they immmediately forced a passage through the main army of the Carlists; thirty men only re mained prisoners in the hands of the Carlists, and were shot by them on the following dav, with the exception of a grena dier, whom a woman saved by disguising him in her clothes, after which she entered the town of Villanova, with nothing on but her under petticoat.

MEETING OF THE LONDON COFFEE-HOUSE KEEPERS. —Yesterby evening a numerous and very respect able meeting of the Coffee house Keepers of the metropolis was held, purswint to notice, at Eastley's Hotel, Southampton street, Covent-Garden, for the purpose of forming themselves into a society for the protection of the trade. The chair was taken by Mr. Cobham of Newgate-street, who explained to the meeting that " the keepers of coffee-houses having be come a numerous and important body," it was essential to their welfare that they should form themselves into a Society to be called " The London Coffee-house Keepers' Association," with a view to an unanimity of action among them. It was impossible for them to co-operate with, and assist each other, so long as they were not asso ciated. They could not defend themselves against at tacks made upon them—they could not resist the imposition of ruinous restrictions upon their trade—and, above all, they could not assist the decayed members of the trade. As a Society, they would exercise a large share of influence, whereas at present they were powerless and inefficient for every important purpose. The meeting responded to the views of the Chairman by loud cheers, and resolutions for the forma tion of the Society were passed unanimously. If we may take upon us to express an opinion upon this subject, it must be one of approbation of the conduct of the Coffee-house-keepers. The advantages to tradesmen of associating for mutual pro tection are so obvious arid so important, that we are only sur prised to find the Coffee-house-keepers so late in the field as the advocates of so excellent a system. As a body, the Coffee house-keepers will form an intelligent and very respectable association. A new Coach Company has been established at Southampton, by means of which the fares between that place and the metropolis have been considarably reduced. On the western road a similar competition is said to be much wanted. There were several heavy falls of snow, but none of long duration, on Tuesday; so that, considering the quantity that fell in October, we may now be said to have had seven months of winter. In fact, there has not been any genial weather since the middle of August. Green peas have fallen, in less than a week, from one guinea to ten shillings a quart; but we hear that they are all of foreign growth. The Tribunal of Commerce of Paris decided, a few days ago, that an author who has contracted with a bookseller for the composition of a work, is bound to deliver a legible copy, and also to correct the press himself. The Marquis and Marchioness of Ely and Lord Augustus Loftus are passing the season in Paris. Lord Mil ton, who has been among the English of ton who have gone over for the Easter recess, is expected to resume his Parlia mentary duties. A few days back, as some workmen were filling in the gravel-pits on Kingsbury farm, the property of Lord Ye rulam, in the occupation of the Mayor of St. Alban's (Mr. S. Smith), a considerable sensation was created in the town by the discovery of several human skulls, and also the bones of some gigantic creature, supposed by those who have seen the re mains, and are judges of such antiquarian curiosities, to be part of the head and vertebrae of the ichneumon. As soon as this singular discovery became known the whole town and neigh bourhood seemed seized with a perfect fever of curiosity to view these extraordinary remains. Men, women, and chil dren were seen rushing down the Redburn-road to satisfy their laudable curiosity ; but we regret to hear that several acci dents took place in consequence of the eagerness of the crowd to obtain a sight of the place from whence these splendid remains were dug. The Mayor, with his brother, and several gentlemen of the neighbourhood were soon on the spot ; but in consequence of the violent pressure many of the visitors were forced into the chasm, and one man sustained a fracture of the thigh and also several contusions. Dr. Web. ster, with his usual activity and vigilance, was soon on the spot, and rendered prompt and efficient aid to the sufferers, who are all expected to do well. The bones, and all that could be collected of the fossil remains, were taken to Kings inspection of in order that they might be preserved f or t he of tho learned in antiquarian research.—Hertford Paper. LITERATURE. ENGLAND UNDER SEVEN ADMINISTRA TIONS-3 Vols. Bentky, London, 1837. The present work is the re-publication of a series of political articles that have from time to time appeared in the pages of the Examiner. Mr. Albany Fon blanque is the author ; and it is not too much to say of him, that by his terse, caustic, and argumentative writings, he has given a stronger impetus to Reform than any other writer of his day. His influence over the reasoning classes of politicians, by whom he is best appreciated, is immense ; and numerous are the sug gestions, urged by Reformers in the House of Com mons and elsewhere, that we can trace to the Examiner. The great charm of MI. Fonblanque's essays is their fertility of thought and illustration. They are ever pregnant with valuable matter, which is placed before the reader in the clearest light, and im pressed on his memory by the happiest and most strik ing analogies. Even if a trite truism is had recourse to, it is conveyed in such a manner as to wear the aspect of a novelty. Circumstances too, apparently the most remote and irreconcileable, are brought toge ther and made to harmonise, so as to bear directly on the point which the author would wish to illustrate, with an ease and readiness to which we have scarcely any paralltl in the language. Mr. Fonblanque takes an evident pride in displaying the lavish variety of his resources. Illustration after illustration, analogy after analogy, drawn now from science and philosophy, and now from history, the belles lettres, and even the most familiar habits of daily life, are multiplied in his essays with a profusion that seems without end or limit. As a logician he would rank higher, had he more power of continuous application ; but he is too apt to start game for others to run down ; to suggest, rather than patiently and ploddingly to work out. His style is, to a certain extent, modelled on that of Swift, and in the dry, earnest, caustic wit of his analogous rea sonings he frequently reminds us of the " Tale of a Tub." Like Swift too, Mr. Fonblanque is wholly deficient in light, jocular vivacity. His humour is always of a stern, emphatic cast ; and its chief charm is its unexpectedness. It comes on the reader una wares, in the midst of some weighty discussion, startling, him into involuntary admiration. As models of poli tical writing, we consider the poignant essays in the volumes before us, superior to any we have had since the publication of Junius's Letters. THE LATE DIVISION. ( From the Morning Advertiser.) Much misrepresentation will doubtless take place as to the division of Tuesday night upon the Irish Municipal Bill. We cannot do better than show the fscts to the public. The division of the 22d of February last, including tellers on each side, gave, in a House of 568 Members 324 for the mea sure, 244 against—being a majority of 80. The majority of Tuesday night gave in a House of 553 Mem bers, 304 fur the measure, 249 against—being a majority of 55. An analysis of the two divisions gives the following results, and shows the absolute opinion of the House of Commons upon this question, in a way that must deter Sir R. Peel from at tempting to take the reins of Government, at all events with out a dissolution, by which he would increase the majority against him most fearfully. The Members in the House who voted for the measure on the second reading, and who did not vote on the third, are as follow : Angerstein, John Baldwin, Dr. Beaumont, T. lV Bodkin, John James Brabazon, Sir W. Buckingham, J. S. Burden, W. Burton, H. Lord C. Clive, E. B. Collier, J. t onyngnam, Lor.l A Cookes, T. H. Copeland, W. Denison, W. J, Denison, J. E. Finn, W. F. Fitzsimon, N. Forster, C. S.

Walpole, Lord Thus, then, we sea that on the 22d of February 324 Mem bers voted for the Bill ; 21 additional voted for it on Tuesday night, from which deduct John Martin, of Sligo, who was the only recusant, and we have 344 Members of the present House who have declared in favour of Irish Municipal Reform. 'On the other hand we have 244 Tories who voted against the Bill on the 22d of February, two of whom arc not now in the House, and 30 additional who voted on Tuesday last, making, with John Martin, of Sligo, 273 against Irish Muni cipal Reform. Thus, out of 615 Members, we have 344 for-273 against the present meusure; and of the 43 Members who hare not declared their sentiments during the present Session, the ma jority are in favour of the Bill. Cold comfort this for Sir Robert Peel and the Tories—a declared majority of 71, and a known majority of nearly 90. Lady Domvile's first ball this season in Grosvenor square, will take place on Monday, the 24th, iststead of the 26th instant. According to the weather-guage kept by the Royal Society at Somerset House, the highest point reached by the, thermometer during the last month was 49, on the 30th, and the lowest 26, on the 21st and 24th. On Monday a meeting of the rate-payers of Bishops gate ward was held at the School-house, Peter -street, Sun. street, for the purpose of petitioning Parliament to pass into a law the measure proposed by his Majesty's Ministers for the total abolition of Church-rates. Resolutions, in accordance with the object of the meeting, were carried. Alderman Cope land presided at the meeting, but he expressed himself opposed to its objects. MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.-The nuptials of Lord Marcus Hill, brother to the Marquis of Downshire, and the lovely Miss Blake, were solemnized yesterday at St. George's, Hanover-square. The Duke of Wellington, Mar quis of Downshire, Count Danncskiold, Lord Cowley, and a great many persons of distinction, were present. THE MINISTRY.-An Hon. Gentleman, who, we apprehend, inclines to believe that there is axiom in politics more unsound than that which asserts that the tutissinium in rnedio est, infers from the speech the Attorney-General made when opposing Mr. Ewart's recent motion for the equal division of landed property in cases of intestacy—a speech by the way of which we by no means approved, and which we think full of fallacies from beginning to end—Col. Thompson infers from this speech in defence of the existing law of primogeniture, " that the present Government have no real desire to attack the institutions hostile to the interests of the peaple ; and that where they do move, they are unwilling Calibans, acting under some pressure they are afraid of. The end of which will be,— that they will first let down the country into the hands of a Tory House of Commons, and then be roused by the appari tion of some other Administration, whose prime necessary of life will be, disclaiming all connection with the present men." Concurring in the general views of Mr. E wart ou the subject, and regretting that the Attorney-General should have ventured such a reply, we still cannot either admit the sweeping infe rence, or believe the presumptive prophecy, of the Hon. Mem ber for Hull. A young lady, the daughter of a respectable family in Cheltenham, was despatched about last Christmas, in a coach alone, to resume her studies at a boarding school in the vicinity of London. A gentleman of fortune, acquainted with her relations, met her, by appointment, at the second stage from Cheltenham, and she then left th e coac h w i t h h er luggage, and accompanied him, on their way t o G retna, as she was persuaded, to the provincial town of Having kept his unfortunate victim there for ten days, on the plea that the snow prevented travelling n or th war d, h e succee d e d completely in his vile wishes. H e i n d uce d t h e young l a d y, by various specious reasons, to ret urn t o sc h oo l unt il a more favourable opportunity should offer for their union. A forged note was given to the poor girl, who is only fifteen years old, purporting that the snow had prevented her return at the usual time ; and it was only a few days ago that this affair was discovered..

ESCAPE AND RECAPTURE OF A PRISONER FROM NEWGATE. This morning about five o'clock, it was discovered . that a prisoner, named Richard Jackson, who had been convicted yesterday sentenced by the Learned Recorder to two years' imprison ment in the Penitentiary, had made his escape from Newgate. It appears that he effected his escape with mucL difficulty, and Y had been engaged in the undertaking for many hours. He managed to climb up the well hole, through the window of his cell to the roof of the gaol, and in his pasoge neces. sarily made a noise hy wrenching out one of the bars. The G he o vernor and Mr. Newman were alarmed, the turnkeys on . t bi e alert, and men stationed in Warwick-lane with all pose. .n dispatch ; he, however, eluded their vigilance. A butcher >. the neighbourhood, on getting up to go to market, saw a. person drop from the roof of a house at the east side of thee prison and run off. Pursuit was made, and the prisoner was discovered at his lodgings in Queen-street, Waterloo-road, which had been taken by his wife a few days ago. He was captured and conveyed to Newgate, where he arrived about nine o'clock. He had broken his toes in making his escape, and received other injuries. He was obliged to be carried to the station house. He admitted that he had commenced his work at nine o'clock last night, and finished it about five o'clock this morn-- ing. The only instruments he had were a small knife and part of an iron pail hoop. The police of the L division, br whom the prisoner was retaken, found his wife and children in a state of great misery and distress. The Corsaire of Thursday contains the following " Extract of a Speech (the King's) in 1830 :--‘ When a King goes abroad surrounded by the affection of his subjects, he has no need of an escort.' A fact of 1837 :--` The Ministry de sire to create three squadrons of cavalry, to serve as an osc.ort for the King!' " On Sunday night last, some thieves broke into the: back part of the house of Mr. Craske, grocer, Colchester, an& succeeded in effecting an entrance into the front shop, where they extracted 51. in copper and 31. in silver, from the desk. They also stole a half sovereign, and six pair of stockings, belonging to the maid servant. They then made a fire in the kitchen, and put on a saucepan containing some water, in which they boiled about three lbs. of ham they had stolen out of the shop. They went into the cellar and drew a JI of elder wine, and then sat down and regaled themselves in the kitchen with ham, bread, and elder wine. —Essex Herald. Tuesday information of the following desperate tempt at burglary was received at the different police Aces) and station houses :—Shortly before four o'clock that morning the family of Mr. Harris, a gentleman of property, residing as Greenford, Middlesex, were alarmed by a noise in the bottom: part of the house. Mr. Harris instantly jumped out of bed, and proceeded down stairs, when, on reaching the bottom, he found that a door leading from the kitchen had been bored through with a centre-bit ; and, on running to an upper win dow hw saw two men escaping through the adjoining shrub- , bery, at whom he immediately fired, and, from traces of blood being afterwards found, there i 3 no doubt one of the men was wounded. On examining the premises it was found they had attempted to effect an entrance in no less than four placed but they only carried off a few silver spoons from the kitchen. Several similar attempts have recently been made at houses imx that neighbourhood, and within the last fortnight, Manor house, the residence of Colonel Leister, was entered, and robbed of property to a large amount ; and on the same night Mr. Harris's residence was also entered, when, arming other articles carried off, were two loaded pistols which that gentleman had placed on the table for his protection. _ _ On Saturday night, about half past 12 o'clock, the ground floor of an eating-house, No. 97, Ratcliff.highwayr gave . way with a tremendous crash, precipitating 12 or 15. persons who were in the shop, partaking of their suppers, anal Mr. R. Smith, the eatinghouse-keeper, and another man, into the cellar below. The alarm and confusion among the in habitants was frightful, and as soon as the clouds of dust caused by the fall of the floor had cleared away, lights Were procured, and several shopkeepers and policemen proceeded t) Vie aid of the sufferers, who were all got out alive, with the exception of one man, a blacksmith, named Wm. Thompilch, of North-street, Poplar. He was found under two sacks of flour which had fallen upon him, and on being taken out, he was conveyed by the police to the house of Dr. Bird in the Highway, who opened a vein, but no blood flowed. The man appeared to have been suffocated with the weight of the flour. The accident was caused by the rotten state of the beam which supported the flooring; and which was quite irk" adequate to support the weight placed upon it. It would appear that amongst the curious effects produced by the introduction of gas into the Austrian oapitalr not the least- curious was that of actually setting the Danube: on fire. For several successive days the glancing lightt and phosphoric appearances upon that river attracted universa: at" tention, and the most extraordinary speculations as to 00 cause were indulged in by the superstitious or ignorant-10ov arc not a few—in that morbid city. At last the authoritia fJund it necessary to interfere—a commission of learned inves tigators arc appointed, and after a multitude of inquiries, the source of the mystic phenomenon was traced to the channel of refuse from the gas works, which had been clandestinely led and discharged into the Danube at night. The government immediately caused this communication to be closed, and was last occupied in ascertaining the numbers of fish killed or of pcopl I poisoned by eating them. Mr. Waller, son of Sir Wattle') Waller, Bart., pro.. coeds to Brussels, as Secretary of Legation, in the room at Henry L. Bulwer, Esq., M. P., who resigned the appointment" it being, we believe, incompatible with the retention of his seat in Par liament. 4, On Monday morning, between seven and ,eight; o'clock, Mary Browning, a young woman twenty-four year* of age, a servant in the employ of Mrs. Lemstois, of Sloane , Street, Chelsea, was accidentally shot by her fellow-servant , a young man twenty years of age, whilit he was cleaning 16 large horse-pistol belonging to his young master, which was loaded with small shot, unknown to him. She entered the pantry and commenced playing, when he jocosely said that if she did not quit the room he would shoot her, at the same moment presenting the pistol, when he pulled the trigger, and the contents entered her side, which wcunded her so serious', that but faint hopes are entertained for her recovery. POETICAL SENSATION.—" To-day, for the firs= time in my life," writes Sir Humphrey Davy to a friend, " have had a distinct sympathy with nature. I was going on the top of a rock to leeward. The wind was high, and everytho4 in motion. The blanches of an oak tree were waving ai murmuring in the breeze. Yellow clouds, deepened by gref at the base, were rapidiy floating over the western hills; th e ; whole sky was in motion ; the yellow stream below was agitated by the breeze. Everything was alive, and myself a part o f the series of visible impressions. I should have felt pain in tea" iag a leaf from one of the trees." Sir F. Madden brought under the notice of the Society of Antiquaries, on Thursday last, an original letter Of Perkin \Varbeck, the Pretender to the throne of England In the reign of Henry VII., to Isabel, Queen of Spain, the P, tron of Columbus, in which he gives a narrative of himsell: from the period of supposed escape from the Tower. . 11. w ill second letter from him, signed " Rychard of England,'' be exhibited to the society, with other inedited documents' among them the deposition relative to a Plot to deprive Henri VII. of his life in favour of Perkin, of which the leader o ' o. _ 8 John Kendal, Grand Prior of St. John of Jerusalem in E'c' t , land, a man remarkable for his being the subject of the earlies contemporary English medal extant.
