NOVENIBER 4, 1837. tempts to mystify, and to escape from his dilemma by assumindthat Lord DENMAN was right, only because the Pzivilege which he called in:question had not been declared to be a Privilege by the House of Commons. This is silly. The decisions which our Correspondent referred to show that such a declaration is quite un necessary—the mere circumstance, or fact, of any thing being done by the authority of the House, being a sufficient declaration of the Privilege, and, as the Judges have decided, sufficient to take away their jurisdiction. The exercise of the Privilege is all the information that a Judge requires for his guidance. This we defy our Contemporary to con trovert. Madrid Papers to the 26th ult., and advices from Bayonne to the 30th, have been received. They an nounce the return of Don CARLOS to Estela. The Pretender re-crossed the Ebro, pursued by General LORENZO, at the ford of Cilla Perlata, opposite Tras_ paderna, on the morning of the 24th ult.—after a campaign of five months spent in fruitless marches and counter-marches, and without succeeding in any thing but the destruction of hundreds of his miserable followers. The Spanish Consul at Bayonne commu nicated- to the French authorities the return of Don CARLOS to Estella, which was made known to the public by the publication of the following official dis patch in the Supplement of the Phare de Bayonne of the 28th ult.:— EXTRAORDINARY DtTLLETIN OF ST. SEBASTIAN, OCT. 27, IN TUE AFTERNOON Political Provisionary Government of Guipugeoa. The Commandant- General 'of the Army of Operations of the Coast of Cantabria has transmitted to me the following intelligence : " Commandant of Arms of Luena—The Military Com mandant of Soneillo has written as follows, under the date of yesterday evening, seven o'clock : " The Commandant-General of the Corps d'Armee of Ob servation on the left has sent me the following communica tion, which reached me at nine o'clock this morning : " According to accounts which were brought me at four o'clock this morning, it appears that the rebels commenced passing the Ebro at 12 o'clock last night, at the fort of Cilla Perlata. The garrison of Traspaderna, on hearing the firing of musketry in that direction, proceeded immediately thither. General Lorenzo was yesterday evening, at 6 o'clock, a league and a half distant from Frias, in pursuit of the rebels. lie ordered me to give him notice of their movements, his inten tion being to dispute the passage of the Ebro with the enemy, which I inform you of, in order that you may communicate it to the commander of the convoy. " lam also, from another source, enabled to inform you that the convoy has made a retrograde march from the Venta Nueva, and has passed the night here. " FRANCISCO GARAY Y LAYAL. " Luena, Oct, 24, 1837." " Letters confirmatory of this statement, dated Santander, the 26th ult., have been received by the Spanish Consul, and other persons in Bayonne, some of which state that Don Carlos was with this division of the Carliet army, which, after passing the Ebro, took the direction of Pena Orduna, on its way to Biscay. Some of the letters mention that the number of Carlist troops that crossed the Ebro on this occasion did not amount to much over 4,000 men, and that they were in the most wretched plight possible." The Madrid Papers contain very little news of any interest. The following extract from the private cor respondence of the Eco del Co►n,nercio of the 25th ult., proves the scandalous mismanagement of the QUEEN'S Generals, in everything connected with the vigorous prosecution of the war. With numerous garrisons and strong moving columns along the whole of the right bank of the Ebro, they contrived to suffer the Carlists to re-cross the river in October as scathless as they crossed it in June—being always several hours too late'to catch the enemy OCT. 19.—0 n the 16th a part of the faction, with Don Sebastian, arrived at Belorado, at which point they or dered 15,000 rations of bread and meat, and 900 of barley. On the 17th they continued their march to this part of the Ebro, occupying the towns of Cuzeurrita, Firgo, Casa la Rienna, and Agunciana, demanding the same number of ra tions in these places, and throwing the inhabitants of the Rioja into the utmost consternation, who little expected a visit of this kind. On the 18th, at the hour of ten in the morning, a column, commanded by the rebel Sanz, appeared at this point, bringing with him the sick, the wounded, the prisoners, the young men impressed during the expedition, a large quantity of baggage, some infantry, and sixty horses, the whole amounting to about 2,000 men, and crossing the river entirely at their leisure. They halted for some time on the opposite side, and then moved on to Zembrana, towards Santa Cruz. On the other side the river they left a battalion and about fifty cavalry, apparently with a view of protecting the passage, for they shortly after crossed the Ebro themselves, and took the same road as the main body of the faction. They attacked Haro, but were repulsed, and driven back to Cosa de la Reina. Of Luchana or our troops we know nothing, nor of those of Ulibarri, so that it is most melancholy to see the best oppor tunities of falling on the factions lost. The faction halted during the night in Coso de la Reina quite tranquilly. " The factious, disembarrassed by the disposal of their con voy, passed in mass across the Ebro this morning at the same point. At day-break a company of Light Infantry ap peared, and compelled the Magistrate to have the river staked and lined, to point out a safe passage to the men ; at ten o'clock Don Sebastian, Villereal, Zariategui Elio, and others, arrived with eleven or twelve battalions and three squadrons, the whole composing a force of scarce 6,000 men. The pas sage of the river was completed at two o'clock. After dining on the other bank of the river, they proceeded by Zembrana to Santa Cruz, in the direction of Penacerrada. They carried with them much baggage, and two pieces of mountain artillery. All this occurred without a single shot being fired at them for the two days they stopped at Casa la Reina." Ideni, 21st. —" Last night General Lorenzo arrived at Haro. The force he brings with him is unknown. His courage we do not doubt, but it is the duty of the Government to examine the causes of the delay in the pursuit of the fugitives." As for EsPA RTERO, he was on the 22d ult. at Abe jar, three leagues west of Soria, in hot pursuit of the Pretender, who contrived then, as on so many former occasions, to lead him upon a false scent. In fact, while the Commander-in-Chief was exploring the brambly recesses of the pine forests of Soria, Don CARLOS was leisurely fording the Ebro, with a per fect consciousness that his nearest formidable enemy was six hours march behind him. ESPARTERO'S own bombastic account of his warlike movements, addressed to the Minister of War, appears in the Madrid Gazette of the 24th ult. ; but as we care not. to exhibit his folly in a stronger light than we have already done, we shall not give it a place in our co lumns. The debate on the Quicksilver Mines' Com mittee Report closed in the Cortes by a vote con firming the contract entered into by MENDIZABAL. 14 1.1, i1 e give elsewhere another letter on Parliamentary A .:ge, from the pen of our respectedicorresponden! lAi tat -7,efornler."

We beg 'or it the earnest attention of the people of England, and their honest representatives in Parliament : " Georgia and Armenia," says that paper, " have been in corporated with the Russian empire, of which Tiflis has be come as it were the southern eye ; Persia has been already in vaded, the Aras crossed, Abbas Mirza has been vanquished at Goud.ja, and the treaty of Turkman Schai has but paved the way for a fresh expedition, which will extend to Teheran, and knock at the gates of English power in the Indies. The Rus sian armies have descended the Balkan, overthrown the bul warks of the empire of Shumla and Varna, encamped in the plains of Adrianople, almost in sight of the minarets of Stam boul, and compelled Turkey to purchase the clemency of the conqueror by the most shameful concessions. At a later pe riod, after the battle of Kollin, Turkey was placed at the mercy of Ibrahim Pasha, and the treaty of Unkiar-Skelessi has delivered to Russia the mouth of the Danube. The na tionality of Poland has been annihilated, and one of the ar ticles of the treaty of Vienna insolently erased at the point of the Muscovite sword. All these events have been accom plished within ten years without opposition from any of the great Powers of Europe. Emboldened by this forbearance, the Russian Cabinet thinks only of pushing to the utmost ex tremity the accomplishment of its ambitious projects, and scarcely takes the trouble of dissembling its inordinate ambi tion. Russia, however, has not the absurd pretension to con tend against the combined armies of France, England, and Austria; but she is perfectly aware that all the Governments of Europe dread the rupture of the existing peace, and she turns to account the apprehensions of European monarchs, and the susceptibility of European nations. Her present ob ject being the invasion of Persia, the Russian Cabinet wishes to insure its communications by, the Caucasus, which might otherwise serve as a rallying-point to the enemies left behind ; and it is doubtful whether the Circassians will be able to re sist the forces which will be brought against them. The last obstacle will fall before the power of Russia, who will only have to march upon Teheran. In presence of these facts, it is difficult to conceive the blindness and inaction of the Cabi nets of Europe, but a still more incredible fact is the longna nimity, and, in plain terms, the humility of the French Government. When shall we see at thB helm of state men less enslaved by party spirit, more solicitous for the honour of their country, and more capable of comprehending the inte rests and the dignity of France?" The annexed intelligence from Africa includes all that is of any interest in the French journals : The 7'oulonnais contains the following artic!e : " The Phare which left on Monday for Bona could take only a telegraphic despatch to Gen. Valee, with very laconic instructions. It scorns that on the 23d, when the news of the capture of Constantine was received at Paris, the •Coun cil of Ministers met, and an express arrived yesterday evening with despatches, which have been forwarded to Gen. Valee by the Cerbere. " It is said that these despatches contain positive orders for the active division to take up its winter quarters at Constan tine, and the corps at Merdjiz Ammar and Ghelma. It was even said to day, oh the authority of a letter from Pa ris, that the Government had pointed out the corps which should occupy Constantine General Trezel to have the chief command of Constantine, to keep 300 Tourees, 400 of the tid Regiment of Light Infantry, 800 of the 17th ditto, 150 regular and 150 irregular Spahies, 630 of the African Chasseurs, 350 of the free company of Bougia, 400 tirailleurs of Africa, 600 of the 3 African Battalions, 600 of the En gineers, and 1,000 Artillery; effective force of the garrison, 5,250 men. " Colonel Duvivier to command the fortress of Constantine. A moveable column of 5,000 men to be organised, which would protect the friendly tribes against the Bey and his par tisans, chastise the tribes that hare not submitted, or are hos tile, and serve to escort the convoys which will be sent every month from Merdjiz Ammar to Constantine. While the gar rison is employed in the fortifications of the city, the move able columns will take advantage of its leisure moments to make a free road to the camp and Constantine." The Illoniteur, dated Thursday, the 2d instant, con tains no official article. It gives a letter from Toulon of the 27th, stating the departure of the Cerbere with des patches. It was thought that General Valee would receive his at Constantine, where he was to wait for the orders of the Government. FRENCH FUNDS.—PAnts, Nor. 2. Five per Cents., 109 f 40c. 5i c. 45c.

The great defect of this Number is that it is too restricted in the range of its subjects. Its various articles are written with skill and temper, and some of them show very considerable erudition ; but there is far too much sameness in them. Almost all of them are of a polemical character, and discuss points of Catholic doctrine, with the exception of the notices of Pugin's elaborate work " on Modern and Ancient Ecclesiasti cal Architecture," and of some recent " Tours in Ireland," in the last of which articles, the Reviewer, after doing justice to the merits of - Mr. Inglis as a traveller, speaks incidentally of the Irish Protestant Establishment as follows : " The worst enemies of the stability of the Irish Church— a mere political establishment—are those who resist the reform of its inveterate abuses. No institution, civil or religious, which is not rooted in the affections of the people, nor cal culated to benefit the community at large, can ever be con structed on a firm and lasting. basis ; and when the sacred name of religion is prostituted to serve the purposes of a fac tion, to maintain a system of monopoly, and to engender hatred and prejudice between the professors of different creeds, even the pretext of the Church being a connecting link be tween England and Ireland, will not avail the opponents of every amelioration relating to the latter country ; their inge nious devices are detected, and the people of Ireland—long a proscribed race in the land of their birth—now that they know their rights—will no longer submit to persecution and con tumely, for the sake of upholding the unholy fabric." The whole of the Paris Papers of Thursday have The review of " Ozanam's English Chancellors," been received. Of domestic news they contain not a syllable of any moment. In the political circles consi- is an attempt to rescue the character of the noted derable excitement was created by the following letter Thomas A'Beckett from the aspersions which Hume from M.

This was a bill filed by Mr. Calvert, the administrator of a gentleman of the name of Laycock, and Mr. Warburton, sureties of a bond for the performance of an agreement en tered into between Mr. Streathcr, now deceased, and the London Dock Company, and the bill prayed that the bone, might be declared to be void, and for a perpetual injunction against the Company suing on the bond. It appeared that in the month of September 1829, Mr. Robert Streather, an architect and builder, entered into an agreement with the London Dock Company to perform the whole of the works for the formation of an entrance frem the river at Shadwell into the docks, to he completed within twelve months from the period of their commencement. Mr. Streather was to provide the whole of the materials, the price of which were to be according to a specification annexed to the contract. He was to have 52,2001. for his work, and was to appropriate to his own use the materials of certain houses to be pulled down ; and was to be paid by instalments upon a certificate of the Engineer of the Company, viz.—three fourths of the amount of the works completed every three months, so that one-fourth of the value of the works completed was to be retained by the Company until the whole should be finished. On the 7 .3d Nov., 1829, Mr. Streather procured the plaintiffs, Thomas Warburton, and Richard Laycock, de ceased, to become his sureties to the Company, and a bond was accordingly executed, which was to become void on Mr. Streather performing all the articles contained in the agree ment. The works were commenced on the 28th of Decem ber, 1829, but not being completed at the end of the twelve month, an agreement was entered into, to which the sureties were parties, that the time should be extended to the 28th Marti, 1831. The works on the 28th March, 1831, were still not completed, and the bond, ipso facto, then became forfeited. Some negotiation then took place as to the terms on which Mr. Streather should complete the works, but that negotiation not having been concluded, Mr. Streather delivered up the materials to the Company, and the Company completed them. During the progres of the work certain alterations were made, in consequence of which . the sum that would have been payable to Mr. Streather was raised from 52,0001. to 55,931/. 16s. 6J. The expense of the works that Streather actually performed, according to the valuation con tained in the agreement, amounted to 36,4291. 16s. The Company, in completing the works, expended 18,875/. 3s. 2d. ; and the whole expense of the works was 55,304/. 19s. 2d. The Company not only advanced Mr. Streather monies while the works were going on to the amount of the work he had done, but considerably beyond it. They advanced him sums amounting to 48,155/., and besides that paid for bricks to the amount of 1,464/. On the 21st day of April, 1831, Mr. Streather became a bankrupt, and his assignees brought an action against the London Dock Company to re cover the value of the materials he had delivered up to them. It was then proposed that the matters in dispute between the London Dock Company and the assignees should be referred to an arbitrator, and the solicitor of the Company applied to the sureties to know if they would con sent to that reference. The answer of the sureties was, that after what had taken place, they considered they were under no liability whatever to the Company. A reference was made to Mr. Creswell, and on the 23d of May, 1833, that gentleman made his award, by which he found the value of the materials taken from Mr. Streather was 5,173/. The Company had advanced to Mr. Streather the sum of 13,190/. more than the amount of the value of the works he had finished, and, there fore, deducting the value of the materials, 5,1731. , they claimed a debt due to them from Mr. Streather of 8,017/., and so the arbitrator found. The Company then commenced an ac tion against the representatives of Mr. Laycock and against Mr. Warburton, the two sureties ; and the sureties filed a Bill in Equity against the Company to restrain them from proceeding with those actions. In their answer to that bill, the Company stated they had sustained coesiderable injury in consequence of the works not having been completed so soon as they ought to have been, and by Mr. Streather hav ing injured neighbouring property, which they had had to make good, and therefore claimed damages. The plaintiffs obtained an injunction to stay execution, and the actions were tried on the 20th February, 1836, when the jury found a verdict for nominal damages. On the 7th March last the case came be fore the Master of the Rolls, when the plaintiffs in equity con tended that the proceedings between the Company and Mr. Streather had been such as discharged them from all obliga tion. His . Lordship was then of opinion, it was material for him to know what was the amount of the damage that had beet, sustained, and therefore ordered the case to stand over until the Court of King's Bench had pronounced its decision. On the 9th of June last, the case was argued in the King's Bench, when a verdict of one shilling damages was ordered to stand. Mr. Tierney, Mr. Kindersley, and Mr. Roupell now ap peared for the plaintiffs, and claimed the costs that had been incurred both at law and in equity. Mr. PEMBERTON resisted the application on the part of the London Dock Company, contending that his clients were per fectly justified in instituting the proceedings they had, and that the plaintiffs were still indebted to them in a sum of money that would more than cover the whole of the costs of the suit. The Learned Gentleman was speaking when we left. QUEEN'S BENCH-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) THE QUEEN 7% THE OVERSEERS OF CHIPPING, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL had been instructed to apply for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, directed to the Overseers of the parish of Chipping, in Lancashire, and commanding them to sign a notice under the statute, the 59th George 111., chap. 12, sec. 24. The object of that Act was to facilitate the process of obtaining possession of houses belonging to parishes, and it was thereby enacted that if any person in the occupation of any houses or tenements belon g ing to the parish, such as work - houses or alms-houses, should refuse to quit when so directed, it would not be necessary to bring an ejectment—that if notice in writing was served upon the occupant, requiring him to quit at the expiration of a month, and that he refused to do so, then he might be sum moned before the justices, and the justices were authorized to make an order underwhich he might be dispossessed accordingly. It appeared in the present case that a man and his wife were in possession of the work-house of Chipping, to take charge of it, and that they had grossly misconducted themselves, as appeared by the affidavits which he held in his hand. A vestry meeting had been regularly held on the 7th August, according to - notice, which was posted in the church ; and, upon that occasion, by a large majority the vestry resolved that these persons, having so misconducted themselves, should be discharged, and ordered to quit the work-house ; and they came to the resolution that the proper legal measures should be taken for• the purpose of turning them out. A notice was accordingly prepared and signed by the churchwardens, requiring them to quit at the end of a month. The Act required that the notice should also be signed by the overseers - , and when they were called upon to do so, they refused, alleging that the occupants had an estate in the office. The operation of the Act was consequently nega tived, and it could not be carried into effect. COURT—Have the vestry power by the Act to make an order on the Overseers? The ATTORNEY- GENERAL—The workhouse is under the controul and regulation of the vestry. Their office is deli berative, while that of the overseers and churchwardens for carrying into effect the regulations of the vestry is purely ministerial. The COURT, after consulting together for a few minutes, granted the rule prayed for. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) . (Sittings in Banco.) lIICKS V. THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT. Mr. Sergeant WILDE said this action was brought to re cover the sum of 5001., being the amount of a bill of ex change, and the case was tried before Mr. Justice Vaughan during the sittings in the last term, when a verdict was had for the defendant, who was the drawer of a bill of exchange; and he pleaded that he had not had a sufl►cient notice of the bill till it was dishonoured. The plaintiff relied on a promise to pay long subsequent to the bill becoming due, which hap pened in 1831, and it was_drawn by the present Duke, the . Marquis of Worcester, on Lord Foley ; and tha question was, what was the effect of the promise ? The evidence brought forward was that of Mr. Ford, a solicitor, into whose pos session the bill had been put when it became due ; and on his I making application to Lord Foley, but without any success, he repeated the application to the Marquis of Worcester, who told him that when he would have exhausted his applications to Lord Foley, he would then pay. It was also proved by Ford that the defendant showed every disposition to discharge the debt by authorising him to negotiate an annuity, out of which the amount of the bill was to be discharged. The defendant, notwithstanding this, refused to appear at 'the Insurance Office, and the arrangement consequently fell to the ground. Upon such evidence, at the trial, he (Mr. Sergeant Wilde) contended that there had been sufficient evidence of notice given ; and it also appeared that the bill was nothing but an accommodation-bill to Lord Foley, who has since that period died. The summing up of the Leatned Judge was to the effect, that the Jury should be very careful that notice had been given before they found a verdict against the defendant ; and the more particularly, when they considered the circum stances under which the bill had been drawn, as well as the great length of time which the plaintiff had suffered to elapse. The subsequent promise to pay was evidence that everything had been properly and accurately executed. In the case of Lumley v. Robinson, it had beer, laid down by Lord Ellen borough, that a promise ought to be considered, in pritna facie, sufficient evidence of notice ; and, if it was necessary, several other eases in point might be adduced. Under these fora rule circumstances, to he ( show cause u l se . Sergeant wh‘ a new \Vilde), therefore, trialshould n ot be moved hadi n this case, on the grounds of misdirection, and that the verdict vas against the evidence. Loan CHIEF JUSTICE--Take a rule to show cause. Rule granted. • ~ "a: 'Cifu ainx. 001, THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1837. EXCHEQUER COURT.--(THIS DAY EAST U. HALL AND OTHERS, ADMINISTRATORS. This was another action against the executors to the will cf the late Captain Nisbet. Sir Wm. FOLLETT moved to set aside the verdict in this case, vsiliclr was for the defendants. The action was brought upon a bill of exchange for 500/., and the issue to be tried w as, whether the deceased was of age when he made the note or not ? At the trial the defendant's Counsel called Lady Nisbett, the mother of Capt. Nisbett, upon whose evidence the verdict for the defendant was founded. He ( Sir William Follett) now contended, that inasmuch as Lady Nisbett was a legatee under the will of her son to a large amount she was an incompetent witness, and that her evidence oug‘ t not to have been received. It was clear that she had a direct pecuniary interest in the result of the trial ; for if the verdict goes for the defendants it goes so far as the amount of it to swell that fund from which her legacy was to be paid ; while on the other hand, if the plaintiffs recovered, that fund would be diminished to the same amount. In this case the assets were not enough to pay the debts. The LORD CHIEF BARON —Did that appear at the trial ? Sir W. FOLLETT—It was admitted on both sides. Lady Nisbett was a legatee to a large amount, under a will where the assets would not pay the debts. Mr. Baron PARKE-That will go to the credib:lity c f tl e witness—no more. Sir W. FOLLETT still contended that the only effect of tl e evidence of Lady Nisbett was to increase a fund in which sl e was deeply interested; and that the case was not distinguisl - able from that of a creditor in a bankruptcy, who was not a competent witness for the assignee. The Court reserved judgment until Monday. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) COVENT GARI 1 here was a moderate supply t( was steady at the following prices S. d. to s.

TO THE EDITorc OF THE SUN. S r—l concluded my last letter by saying that, "I an order of the whole Commons of the realm, in the Supreme Cou I of Parliament assembled, were not a sufficient jus tificaion for any act whatever before the Justices of the Crown, .we would he living under a species of Venetian tyranny and degradation, which the whole people of Eng land, if necessary, should take up arms to resist." As is manifest from the nature and the functions of the Houses of Parliament—and this has been confessed by . all the Judges from the earliest times, not even excepting Chief Justice Holt—the House of Commons may commit any man for contempt; and, being a• Supreme Court. th warrant of committal need not state the nature of tee offence. All the other Judges of Holt's time admitted, that even if it did state the particular contempt, the J;,s tices of the Crown, as functionaries of inferior C ur!s, were incompetent to decide on its legality. Lord Mei borough says, speaking of this power, " The necessity of the case would, upon principles of natural reason, seem V) require that such bodies, constituted for such purposes, and exercising such functiffils as they do, should po,sess the powers which the history of the earliest times shows that they have in fact possessed and used.". Let us now regard this novel doctrine in its, bear ing on the liberty of the subject. Suppose, then, that when the House of Commons, as'the Grand Inquest of the realm, whose province it is to inquire into all public grie vances, and more especially into the conduct of the Judges, had called upon witnesses to give testimony inculpating Chief Justice Keeling, for unconstitutional charges and other illegal proceedings towards juries, and consequently reflecting injuriously on his character, and damaging his reputation—suppose they commanded one of those indivi duals, for greater accuracy, and with a view to publica tion, to put his depositions in writing, and to hand those depositions to the officers of the House. If he refuse, the House commits him for contempt—and all the Autho rities, as well as the very reason of the thing, establish that the Justices of the Crown dare not liberate him. He must lie in prison, or obey. He obeys—when forthwith, accordir ° , to the law laid down in the case of Stockdale v. Hansard, the Chief Justice institutes proceedings against him for a libel—institutes them in his own Court, and decides that " an order of the House of Commons is no justification." The Judges would thus be placed above the controul of Parliament, and might violate the Constitution with impu nity—for no man could giVe evidence against them without incurring the risk of a prosecution, or an action at common law for slander or libel ; and yet, if he refuse to give his testimony in the manner desired, or otherwise disobey the Houses of Parliament, he is thrown into prison. If, then, the position of the Chief Justice be not in effect the worst and most absurd of tyrannies, I cannot understand what tyranny is. Neither the Speaker, nor any officer or ser vant of the Houses of Parliament, can obey their orders without first taking ale(r ' al opinion, under the liability of proceedings at Common Law ; and if he dare hesitate in obeying such orders, it is the duty of the Houses to com mit him forthwith to prison, pursuant to the Law of Par liament—the paramount law of the land. It is woi:thy of particular attention, that the King of Hanover should so justly appreciate the tendency of Lord Dentnan's .deei sicn—that one of' the first alterations he proposes to make in the wretched institutions of the people of Hanover is, to deprive the assemblies of the privilege of publishing Their proceedings ! ! ! Contrast now the constitution and the functions of the High Courts of Parliament with the constitution and the functions of the Courts of Common Law and Equity, and it must be confesses that submission to the doctrine of the Chief Justice—which sets the King's Bench above the Houses of Parliament—would be a degradation to which no British subject ought to submit, and which the six hand red and jifty-eight Commoners of education, property, and rank, who have been chosen by the people to be the guardians of their rights and privileges, arc bound by honour and conscience to resist to the utmost of theft. ability. The house of Commons declared to James 1., in the first Parliament of that reign " That the [louse of Commons is the sole proper judge of return of all such writs, and of the election of all such Mem bers as belong unto it, without which the freedom of election were not entire. And that the Chancery, though a Standing Court under your Majesty, be to send out those writs, and re ceive the returns, and to preserve them, yet the same is done only for the use of the Parliament : over which neither the Chancery, nor any other Court, ever had, or ought to have, any manner of jurisdiction. Neither thought we that the Judge's opini,4l, which yet in due place we greatly reverence, being delivered what the common law was, which extends only to inferior and standing courts, ought to bring any prejudice to this High Court of Parliament, whose power being above the law, is notfounded on the common law, but have their . rights and privileges peculiar to themselves." And- that each• House is fully competent to exercise their respective functions without the concurrence of the other estates, and consequently cannot be subject to the controul of the Justices of the Crown, was admitted by Mr. Pitt in 1788, - at the time of the King's incapacity.. It was then doubted whether the House of Commons could exercise its peculiar functions, because the fiction of - the presence of the Sovereign in Parliament did not obtair,..or was suspended. Mr. Pitt expressed himself clearly of opi iiion,-and the whole House acquiesced, "that each of the Houses of Parliament, in its separate capacity, was fully competent to the exercise of those powers which concerned its own order and ju[isdiction." I have shown, in my former letter, that the fore going declaration of the House of Commons has been submitted to, and upheld by all the unimpeached decisions and authorities from the earliest to the pre.. sent time. Let us now turn for a moment to the Report of the Committee appointed by the House of Commons to inquire into the question raised by the decision of the Chief Justice. There voted for the Resolutions, passed by the House. on the 30th of May, aftOr three months' mature and deliberate investigation : Lord Hosvick, Sir George Strickland, Sir F. Pollock, Sir William Follett, Mr. Charles W. Wynne, Lord Stanley, Sir George Clerk, Mr. Sergeant Wilde, Mr. Attorney ' General, Mr. O'Connell, and Sir Robert Peel. How many voted for my Lord Denman's proposition ?—One And who was this individual ?—Sir Robert Harry Inglis, the Menzber for,the University of Oxford. The effect of my Lord Denman's decision is this, namely that although the Lords control the proceedings of the Exchequer Chamber, the Exchequer Chamber the pro ceedings of the Queen's Bench, yet that the Queen's Bench may control the proceedings of the House o. Commons. If this decision were permitted to stand as • law, . the power of the Commons is virtually annihilated— an open and undisguised oligarchy is established. " The poor Commons" will again he" petitioners in Parliament." It may be asked, in what consists the law of Parlia ment ?—Thc law of Parliament consists of the precedents furnished by the records of Parliament, and the judg ment and the consciences of the Members, each of whom has a judicial place, and is a Lord of Parliatnent. And these judges of the House of Commons are periodi cally selected by the . people, and arc subject to public ob servation and, public opinion, and may be dismissed pro liac vice by the Crown. This is the. check the Constitution has provided for the due administration of the law of Par liament. The Justices of the Crown who administer the common and statute laws, are governed, or to be governed, by the unimpeached decisions furnished by the records of their courts, and by. their own judgments, where an Act of Parliament does not apply. Their, decisions are subject to revision in the House of Lords, and their conduct to the scrutiny and the animadversions of the House of Com mons—the grand inquisition of the realm—who impeach befOre the other, Chamber, if in their Wisdorh it seem *fir. This is the provisiOn the Constitution has made to enforce the due administration of justice between subject and sub ject, and to cofine the justices of the'Crown within their limits. ,That, therefore, the acts or proceedings of - th ' e - Houses of .Parliament are subject in any way to the interference or control of the justices of the Crown, is not only. expressly, contrary to every principle of the law aud Constitution (if - England ; but if they were so, an ab surdity so degrading to the whole British people, and so utterly subversive of every principle,of freedom, should he speedily and effectually eradicated. Public liberty has always more to fear froth the aggres sions of men of private worth, than from the assaults of the abandoned. The acts of the. former are clothed with the character of the individual,-and - suspicion is lulled ; While those of the latter appear in their undisguised enor mity. Th e high and unblemisl.ed reputation of Lord Den man makes his errors or his faults most dangerous ; for it. is impassible to combat them with befitting energy. We cannot dismiss from our minds the accomplished scholar— the - gentleman—distinguished for his dignified urbanity and considerate forbearance to the bar, often un der trying circumstances. We cannot forget the splendid career of his early days, nor his services in the cause of RdOrtn. We remember all this, and although smarting under tile aggression, we shrink from the contest—sorrow, not auger, predoniinates.

MANCHESTER, FRIDAY, Nov. the Cotton trade, though things are not generally lower than they were last week, they cannot possibly be duller. It is probable that the advance on Cotton has tended in a great measure to enable the manufacturers to keep up the rates of this day se'nnight ; thus, though prices are not lower, the advance on the . raw material further reduces the profit, if any there be. We think that in any branch of the trade these ob servations will strictly apply. Twist is . firmer, owing to the advance in Cotton=---that is for low numbers.
