Lord BROUGHAM'S Bill on the subject of Public Education was read a first time last night in the House of Lords. No one knows better than the Noble and Learned Lord the necessity that exists for passing some measure of this sort ; and no one has shown him self more capable of grappling with its difficulties. He does not belong to that class of the Aristocracy, with whom it is a matter of boast that they keep aloof from the vulgar mass ; still less is he one who has spent the best part of his days in the Club at CROOK. lainDs, or among the exclusive circles at ALMACK'S. Early and late he has been toiling in the cause of the people ; he has mixed with them in social intercourse ; is acquainted with their wants and wishes ; and can legislate for their benefit, with more tact and felicity than any other Statesman of the day. In the cause of Education his powers are confessedly unrivalled. He is the great Schoolmaster--as NAPOLEON was the great Captain—of his age, nor can we imagine that any measure on the subject, of which he is the ori ginator, can fail to meet with the approbation of the House of Lords, notwithstanding the prejudices of some, and the lukewarnmess of other, Members of that august Assembly. Whether Lords or Com moners, the majority of our legislators now confess that the time has arrived when education should be as generally diffused as taxation. From an ignorant people nothing is to be hoped ; from an educated one everything. By education, we do not mean a mere showy acquaintance with Greek and Latin, which— though we are far from depreciating it—is among the luxuries, rather than the necessaries, of knowledge ; but that sort of instruction which fits a man for the sphere in which he moves ; which is practical and worldly in its nature ; is bottomed on the solid foundation of common-sense ; enables us to appreciate the principles and talents of those who may be called to rule over us ; and to fulfil the duties of citizen ship, in whatever way we may be called on to exercise them. These are - the great objects to which Lord' BRouGHAm's Bill addresses itself, and which he has spent a great portion of a singularly active life, in en deavouring to accomplish. There is nothing of theory in his projected system of Public Education. It is not the work of an unworldly pedant, but of a shrewd, observant man of the world. Let it once pass into a law, and we shall hear no moi.e of dank Brous impressions made on an ignorant multitude by designing dema gogues. The people will learn to think for themselves ; and when thus efficiently instructed, adieu to the hopes of all those who have hitherto appealed to their passions, :under an idea that they were wholly destitute of Ift.)L-111 v is the Inatiicr of anarchy - , as Ali:siti t )tory attests hi every page of its bloody records ; and it is only by properly instructing a community, that you can give any sure guarantees for the preservation of good order and prosperity. What were the Trades' Unions of last year, but the natural results of igno rance on the part of the misguided operatives ? Had these men, more unfortunate and criminal, lived some twenty years later, when Lord BROUGHAM'S Bill had been in full operation for that period, not one of them would have acted as they have done. We should have had no Dorchester labourers torn from their wives and families, and condemned to a lingering exile in a foreign land ; but, instead, a body of indus trious, determined workmen, who, when wronged, would have known how to procure redress without con vulsing the country, violating the law, and repudiating the dictates of common sense. We regard Lord BROUGHAM'S Bill, not only as a Bill for the promo tion of Public Instruction, but as one, also for the pro motion of public religion and morality. As such, we call on all Noble Lords—no matter what political creed they may profess—to give it their unqualified support. Of course the Episcopal Bench will not dream for an instant of rejecting it, for it is a measure peculiarly their own, the passing of which they are bound by their sacred vocation, and the duties they owe society, to assist to the very utmost of their 25 fly v I ability. A few days more and the Corporation Reform Bill will have passed through the present critical stage of its existence. The Committee proceeded last night as far as the 95th clause ; and although three of the preceding clauses still remain to be discussed, we hope the labours of the ComMittee will be closed by the middle of next week. The principal subjects of debate last night were the clauses relating to the appointment of the Trustees of Charities, and the presentation to Livings in the Church. Lord JOHN RUSSELL proposed to reduce the number of Trustees from fifteen to nine, to avoid the inconvenience that might arise in small boroughs, in some of which it might be difficult to find fifteen persons (not members of the Council), fit for the office. With this alteration the clause was agreed to. The debate on the 62d clause afforded an op portunity to some Honourable Gentlemen to show their intolerance towards those who differ from them in religious opinions. We gather from the speech of Mr. HORACE Twiss, that he would have no objection to re-enact the Test,and Cor poration Acts. Dissenters, this Learned Gentleman thinks, are very unfit persons to be entrusted with the power of presenting to Livings in the Established Church. He seems, however, to be ignorant that, according to the law as it stands at present, dissent is no disqualification for the exercise of this trust, either in a private individual, or in the member of a Corporation. We are aware that in stating this opinion, we are running counter to a late judg ment of the VJCE-CHANCELLOR (we allude to the case of LADY HEWLEY'S Charity), by which his Honour has decided that no person can he a trus tee, if the trust be in any way connected with reli gious objects, unless he hold precisely the same points of religious doctrine which the founder is presumed to have held. But this decision has been appealed from, and therefore we should think, without mean- ing any disrespect to Sir LAUNCELOT SHADWELL, can hardly he considered a settled principle in English j urisprudence. Mr. HORACE TWI ss also entertains a sacred horror of the pollution to which the Church would be sub- jetted, should the lower classes, as ho is pleased to term the future burgesses of corporate towns, be permitted to interfere in the appointment of the ministers of religion. The lower classes, says he, elect the Council and the Council the Ministers, and what profanity is that What a shocking sight, exclaims this able advocate of the Establishment, it must be to see the eighteen clergymen of Liverpool going cap in hand to the ninety Councillors of that Town, and soliciting their patronage ! We quite agree with him that this would be a degradation, but the degradation would be owing neither to the number of the Councillors, nor to the mode of their appointment; but to the want on the part of the clergymen themselves of a due se►►se of the dignity of the ministerial office. One would suppose, from the contemptuous manner in which Mr. Twtss talks of the lower classes, that he was himself of high aristocratic lineage—that the blood of all the HO WARDS ran in his veins ! We would advise him to be more cautious in his language. He may perhaps profit by recollecting the mortifying penalty which a namesake of his—we do not know whether he may not have been a relative—once in curred, by giving too great a licence to his tongue. The whole of the French Papers of Thursday have been received. The Moniteur contains the following Telegraphic despatch received by the French Govern ment, and dated Bayonne, July 1, two o'clock, p.m.:— " The Commander of the Sappho transmits what follows :- " . Bilboa continued to defend itself on the 29th ult.' Ge• neral SANTos DE LA HERA, who has succeeded VALDEZ (who retires), is on his march to that place, which is now beyond danger. This intelligence is important, both as regards the safety of Bilboa and the retirement of VALDEZ from the command of the army. It is rumoured that the re- tircment of VALDEZ was occasioned by the appoint ment of the Marquis DE LAS AMARILLAS to succeed him in the War Department. General SANTOS DE LA .14 ERA, the present Commander-General of the Army in the North, returned about three years ago from South America, where he was distinguished for his bravery and military honour, during the continuance of the civil war. After his return to old Spain, he received the appoint ment of Governor of Burgos, having previously had he command of the camp before Gibraltar. He is by rth a Biscayan, and has the appearance of a man i Le prime of life. The only disadvantage under which he labours is his non-acquaintance with the army, and the little that is known of him in any public capacity. The French Government has openly proclaimed itself the advocate of active intervention in the affairs of Spain. The cause of this sudden change in the counsels of the KING is not known, but the fact is established by the following notice, which appears in Journal de Paris and the Journal des Debats:— " NOTICE..—The foreign legion being destined for Spain ;he Minister-at-War has decided that all Frenchmen who in. tend to go there to support the Constitutional cause may, by way of exception, and without his special authority, be allowed to contract an engagement for that legion, if they answer the condition of age and aptitude required by the Royal ordinance of the 10th of March, 1831. The acts of engagement will be received by the military Sub-Intendant, and young men who wish to engage themselves should present themselves for that purpose, at his office, No. 58, Rue de Verneuil.

Whatever number of troops is raised in France for the service of the QUEEN of Spain will receive from the French Government an entire outfit, and three months pay, by way of gratuity. The Peers sat in their judicial capacity on Thurs day, when fifty of the prisoners were introduced under a strong escort. One of the accused, named LA GRANGE, defended himself and his colleagues in a very powerful speech, which occupied in the de livery nearly the whole of the sitting. The prisoner re peatcdly otested against the competency of the Court, and as his manner was perfectly respectful, his argu- THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1835 ments appeared to make a strong impression on their Lordships.

We knew Russia too well to fear a declara tion of war against England and France. There is a material difference between threatening and carrying such threats into effect.

District Reform Associations are getting up in every quarter. At Plymouth the Reformers are particu larly active, and on Thursday last held a public meet ing at the Freemason's Hall, in that town, which was most numerously and respectably attended, and at which it was resolved to endeavour, by every possible means, to " procure the registration of all qualified persons attached to liberal principles, and to diffuse sound political information." We do not forget the exertions of the Plymouth men during the mbmorable period of the Reform struggle, and are glad to find that they are just as zealous now, as they were then, in the cause of Constitutional principles. Let theme but join hand in hand with other neighbouring towns, who may be in need of their influential assistance, and we shall have no more PARKERS returned in opposition to RUSSELLS, for South Devonshire. MEETING FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF IRELAND. The adjourned meeting upon the above subject was held his day at the Exchequer Coffee-house, and was very fully attended. Mr. O'CONNELL in the Chair.—The Learned Gentleman, after depicting in strong colours the miserable condi.io i in which the Irish peasantry were sunk, said, that the meeting was held for the purpose of working out practical results, and they had now some hope, for they had obtained_ an appointment for Thursday with the Government, in order to see whether their prospects were to be realized, and how far._.. (Cheers.) There were three points—three great branches of public works, which would not only give immense employ ment to the poor of Ireland, but would, he contended, be of the utmost importance in a commercial point of view to the whole country. The first of these works was the connec tion of the lakes of Connaught, which of itself would give employment to thousands of industrious men, and at the same time be most beneficial to that province. The next was the mighty estuary of the Shannon, which ran for sixty miles through the country up to Limerick. With an adequate expense laid out upon that beautiful river, there might be the very best of harbours along its whole line. If only one-fiftieth part of the money was laid out upon that river which had been sunk under the sands at the mouth of the Mersey, it would be one of the finest commercial rivers in the world. With a few canals from it, and with a few short railroads branching from it, that river would be the means of giving the advantage of an internal water or railroad communication to three entire provinces of Ireland. He did not need to say much in praise of the Shannon. He would only refer those interested in the matter (and he hoped all were), to the many Reports from Committees of the House of Commons, which had often recom mended its improvement. The next topic led him to the West of Kerry, in which place he was much interested, and therefore they wouldon it receive his statements with caution—he would only beg of them to look at the map of Ireland and find out the port of Valencia, which with a few railroads, and by a connection with the Shannon, would give to every town in Ireland the means of export, not only to great Britain, but to the whole world. It would make Valencia one of the first of commercial ports, and surely that would not only be a benefit to Ireland, but also to England.—(Hear, hear.) These facts were so apparent that it was only wonderful that they had not been seen and acted upon before—there was only one reason that could be given—that was the great curse of Ireland, the absentee rents which were drained from the country to be spent in a foreign land.—( Cheers.) The question then came to this : how was all this to be done? Private capital could not do it ; and heretofore they had been refused all aid from the public funds. They were public works, and would be for the benefit of the public; and though we were now happily living in times when the greatest economy was carried into all departments, still in his opinion it ought to be by public money that suck things should be done. He was in a Committee not long ago, where it became his duty to examine into the manner in which matters were done in times past, and ho found that about thirteen years ago, when the Whigs were not in power, a linen-draper came up from Edinburgh, and represented that the Corporation would be much the better of an advance of 240,0001. for im proving the harbour of Leith, and one fine morning it was granted.—(Laughter.) That was expended upon a place that never could be a harbour, for they had the Report of an engi neer that it could be nothing of without another outlay of 250,0001. They were Scotch —we, unfortunately, are Irish.—(Great cheering.) He might instance the Cale donian Canal, the Highland roads, and many other things. But let them go to Canada, and there they would find 600,0001. laid out on the Rideau Canal—they did not be long to the colonies, they were Irish ; and there was none of the public money for them. Now he thought the time had arrived when Ireland should participate in all the ad• vantages of England, as she did in all the burdens. (LEFT SPEARING. ) PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS last night Assent was given by Commission to the Western Australia Bill, the Indemnity Bill, the Sugar Duties Bill, the Corn Importation ( Isle of Man) Bill, and to several Private Bills. Lord AUCKLAND, in reference to the importation duties charged in France on our wool, stated that a reduction had been made by the Government of that country, and that the President of the Board of Trade would not fail to attend to a subject so important to the agricultural interests of England. Lord BROUGHAM having withdrawn his resolutions, now introduced a Bill to provide for the Education of the People. It was read a first time, and ordered to be printed. Lord LONDONDERRY again returned to the decree of Don Catt Los, which had the evening before been proved a forgery. On this occasion the Noble Marquis came to the charge with a copy in Spanish ! obtained from some correspondent. After adducing this irrefragable evidence of the authenticity of the decree, the Noble Marquis, in conclusion, asked, inter olio, whether his interpretation of the treaty was not correct ? No answer whatever was given. In order to forward the two great questions now in progress through the House of Commons, Lord BROUGHAM suggested a mode of proceeding by way of resolutions. Lord MELBOURNE thought such a mode would add to the labour of their Lordships, and consume more time than waiting till the Bills were sent up to them. The Mar quis of LONDONDERRY said something about a circular sent by the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, to which Lord MELBOURNE briefly replied. In the COMMONS, Mr. H. L. BULWER presented a petition from new South Wales, for the adoption of a Legislative As sembly in that country. Six thousand (out of a population of 60,000) had signed the petition. The Hon. Member, in supporting the petitioners, cited Sir James Mackintosh's au thority in favour of his view. Sir G. GREY would not commit the Government by any pledge on the subject; but the ques tion would necessarily come before the House on the expiry of the present Act for the Regulation of the Colony, when the maturest consideration would be given to the expediency of extending to New South Wales the privilege prayed for. Mr. O'CONNELL and Mr. HUME supported the Bill : the latter entered into a lengthened discussion upon it, and thought two years too long to wait. Sir H. HARDINGE said that the Co lonies now, since the boroughs had been thrown open, had no Representatives, excepting only Mr. Roebuck, for Canada. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER and Mr. HUME protested against the Hon. Baronet's assertion ; who, with Mr. WILKS, declared that the interests of the Colonies were much better represented in the House now than before the passing of the Reform Bill. In the Ipswich case, a motion was made by Lord JOHN RUSSELL, that the Report of the Evidence taken before the Election Committee, which relates to the Magis trates and others, be read and referred to a Select Committee. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, it was agreed that the House should sit, during the remainder of the Session, from 12 to 3 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and that the sittings should be resumed at 5 o'clock. Lord MORPETH announced that a Municipal Reform Bill for Ireland would be introduced this Session. The House then resolved itself into Committee upon the Corporations' Reform Bill, beginning with Clause 56, and proceeding as far as the 94th Clause. The CHAIR MAN then reported progress. In reference to the Report of the Lighthouses' Committee, Mr. HUME said it was his in tention to bring in next week a Bill founded on that Report. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS HOUSE OF COMMONS.

It is, therefore, neces sary that Captains should be very careful in going over the Dragde, and it is advisable to take a pilot for the galliot." Mr. Bunn has presented Madame Malibran with a costlV case of rubies and diamonds, on which is engraved this inscription:— " TO MADAME MALIWRAN, The most distinguished Artiste the Theatres of Europe have ever possessed, This trifling token of esteem is presented BY ALFRED BUNN, Lessee of the Theatres-Royal Drury-lane and Covent-garden. London, Ist July; 1835." A French gentleman, Count de Chateau-Villa, Mar ried some years ago an Irish lady of the name of Beeby, who brought him, it is said, above 40,0001. After living in Paris happily enough, and giving splendid fancy balls in the Rue St. Lazare, discord invaded the menage ; the husband proved volage—sought other affections, and after repeated attempts to reclaim him, the wife applied for a separation a mensa et (hero. The suit had already commenced ; a number of affec tionate and remarkably well written letters of the wife to her faithless spouse were produced in Court, and had found their way into the French Journals, when, on Saturday, the Count watched his wife on her promenade, either prevailed on her or forced her to enter a chaise-and-four, and drove off with her to Germany ; the only cause assigned for this sudden return of affection (if it be such) being that his family was flattered with the applause bestowed upon the tender epistles published in the French journals. SCUM OF THE CITY.—R. C. SCARLETT is re ported to have said, in reference to the Municipal Commis sioners, that they " obtained their information respecting Nor.. wich from the scum of the city." We shall content ourselves with merely asking the Hon. Member for Norwich if in his designation of " the scum of the city" he referred to such gen tlemen as Mr. J. J. Gurney, Alderman Booth, Mr. Geldart, Alderman Bignold, Mr. Youngman, Mr. Beckwith, Mr. John Francis, Mr. Winter, Mr. Alderman Newton, Mr. Staff, Mr. Athow, Mr. S. S. Beare, Alderman Day, and other gentlemen, many of whom he numbers amongst his warmest supporters.—Norwich Mercury. BRIBERY AND BELL -RINGING.—The Rev. W. C. Fonerau and other individuals, proceeded some distance on the road with a carriage and four, and escorted the gentry just out of Newgate into the town with the appearance of tri umph. Shortly afterwards, the bells of St. Mary Tower and St. Lawrence struck up merry peals and fired in commemora tion of the event, and in the eyening, fireworks and guns were discharged in front of Cook and Bond's houses.—lpswich Chronicle, FINE ARTS. MARTIN'S ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE BIBLE. Parts VIII., IX., X. J. Martin, London. 1835. As we have already noticed Mr. Martin's engrav ings, and commented on his peculiarities, at some length in The Sun—and on more than one occasion— we need here say little more than that the present Parts of his Biblical Illustrations consist of six embellish ments, which are executed with all the artist's tri umphant knowledge of effect, especially in the disposition of his black masses of shade, and form reduced copies of some of his larger and best known engravings, such as the Fall of Babylon, Balshazzer's Feast, and Josiah commanding the Sun and Moon to stand still. ,Un questionably, Mr. Martin is the best pictorial illus trator of the Bible we have yet had. The magnificence of old Nineveh lives again in his designs. LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD. THE FAIR FORESTER. .Tktoon. London. 1835. These are engravings by Doo and Robinson, from paintings furnished by Landseer and Wyatt, and show marks of skill and pains-taking, such as might do credit to the most practised artists of the day. " The Fair Forester" however, (a half-length,) is our favourite, the figure and attitude being replete with consummate grace, and the swell of the half-exposed bosom show ing a close adherence to the truth of nature. The countenance, too, is full of youthful softness and sweetness ; nor must we omit to notice the dexterous manner in which the folds of the lace-veil, which looks quite lustrous and transparent, are arranged. " Little Red Riding-Hood," is a full-length of a pretty little girl, whose person is closely muffled up in a long cloak, depending to her ankles, as if to shelter her from a coming night-storm. The engraving is re markable for its case and simplicity. CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY The LORDS CommissioNEss7the MASTER of the ROLLS, and Mr. Justice BOSANQUET, sat in Lincoln's Inn-hall to-day, and took motions, none of which were of any public interest. VICE-CHANCERY COURT. His Honour the VICE- CHANCELLOR took cause petitions and short causes to-dap• EX PARTE FOX This was the petition of a lady named Fox, praying that the order made on the petition of a gentleman named Marston, a merchant residing at Manchester, might be discharged, or that the execution of the writ de centre inspiciendo, which had been issued against the petitioner might be stayed, and that matrons might be sent at seasonable times to ascertain if the petitioner was enceinte. The short facts of the case were these : —The petitioner, who resided at Uttoxeter, and whose maiden name was Wakewall, had been paid attentions by a gentleman named Fox, to whom she was married in February last. Previous to that marriage, Mr. Fox had made a will, giving to the pe titioner a considerable portion of his property, the remainder of which went to Mr. Marston. Mr. Fox died in the May following, without having made any other will, leaving Mrs. Fox, the petitioner, enceinte. This state of circumstances, it was contended, operated a revocation of the will, and that the child of which Mrs. Fox was enciente would, in conse quence of Mr. Fox dying intestate, take the whole of his property. Mr. Marston considering that the statement of the petitioner that she was enciente was wade for the purpose of practising a fraud upon him, applied for and obtained the writ de centre inspiciendo, the discharge of which was the object of the present application. Mr. Kindersley and Mr. Duckworth appeared for the peti tioner, and Mr. Knight and Mr. K. Parker opposed it. Mr. DITCKWORTII was addressing the Court, following Mr. Kindersley when we left.

ORANGE PROCESSIONS ON THE 12TH JULY.-- A circular has been addressed by Sir W. Got§ett, in conse quence of the command of his Excellency the Lord Lieu tenant, to the Magistrates of Ireland, calling upon them to be vigilant in the discharge of their official duties in order to pre serve the peace on the approaching anniversary. At meetings of the Council-house, Nottingham, on Tuesday and Wednesday last, 49 persons were admitted to the freedom of that city. ac NATIVES 9, OF SHROPSHIRE.—The fe males in this part of the country call their -husbands by the endearing name of their " devils ;" and the men seldom ad dress their comrades by their Christian or proper names, but generally by some nick-name, founded on some personal de fect. Thus when Dame Nature has been unfortunate in the moulding of their frames, or accident has left them in some measure crippled or disfigured, they are sure to get an appro priate name, such as " Crutch-leg," " Cut-nose," " Broken pate," or " Squint-eye," " Crook-back," or " Bandy-leg." A stranger coming into these parts inquired for one Peter Jones, who was a dark featured man, with strong black whis kers, &c. by his proper name. No one could give the inquirer any information about him until his appearance and features were described, when one and all exclaimed, " Ah ! youn mean one Black-bweard,' wene known the chop well."—New Sporting Magazine. DE LAMARTINES "PILGRIMAGE TO THE HOLY LAND. 3 VOLS., BENTLEY.—" The title to the narrative of travels of this distinguished author is appropriate, as Lamartiße was prompted to undertake his journey by the feelings of en thusiasm—half religious, half poetical, which were awakened in his mind during his very infancy, by the reading of the Bible, and which inspired him with an unceasing desire to visit the scenes which filled his imagination,. His pilgrimage has extended, accordingly, over every part of what has been emphatically called the Holy Land ; and although there is not a spot that he has visited in Eastern Europe or Asia Minor which has not been explored by a long succession of travellers, yet his book is full of novelty, from the peculiar objects with which he undertook his journey, and the impress of his poetical temperament and genius, which is stamped'on every page of it. The translation is very faithful, and remarkably easy and spi rited. "—Spectator. The following tragical event occurred on Sunday night last, in the neighbourhood of Wybunbury, near Nant wich. A man named Thomas Bagguley, in the employment of Mr. Davison, steward to Sir John Delves Broughton, Bart., went to Mr. Davison's between eleven and twelve o'clock on the night in question, and called up Mr. Davison's servant girl, named Malpas (about sixteen years of age), telling her her mo ther, who lived a short di s t ance from 'Mr. Davison's, was dying, which statement the poor girl believing, got up to go to see her mother, and Bagguley accompanied her across some fields ; and it would seem, after attempting to commit a rape on the poor creature; but without accomplishing his diabolical purpose, he murdered her by strangulation, left the body, and retraced his steps to Mr. Davison's outbuildings, where he committed suicide by hanging himself. A coroner's inquest was held on the bodies of the unfortunate girl and her mur derer on Tuesday last, when verdicts of wilful murder and fel° de se were found, and the man's body was interred the following night about twelve o'clock, at the entrance of Wy_ bunbury churchyard (according - to thc recint , tatate), the presence of a great number of speetatyis. 13ag8uley 'dab it;IG I a wife and eight children.

One of Mr. Loudon's most valuable monthly Pub lications. It is enriched with several original com munications of great merit, and the embellishments are carefully executed. THE ARCHITECTURAL. MAGAZINE. Longman and Co. Several of the first architects in England are regu lar contributors to this work. To architects in gene ral it must be highly valuable. This Number contains a retrospective criticism on the various articles whica have already appeared, which will be read with profit by those architects who have not watched with any care the progress of this publication. The designs and engravings, which occasionally illustrate the text, are neatly executed. THE NATIONAL MUNICIPAL, AND PAROCHIAL REGISTER. E f fingham Wilson. This is the first Number of a publication, the avowed object of which is to expose the workings of Municipal Corporations, and to superintend the con duct of Vestries. The title is rather pompous for a monthly publication, price one shilling ; and yet we must allow,. from the specimen before us, that it de serves encouragement, particularly in the city and suburbs of London. It, contains a mass of very useful and important information. LITERATURE. A TWELVEMONTH'S RESIDENCE IN THE WEST INDIES, DURING THE TRANSITION FROM SLAVERY TO 4PPRENTICESHIT ; BF R. R. MADDE', M. D., AUTHOR Or " TRAVELS IN THE zdsr," 6-c. In 2 Vols. London : Cochrane and Co., 1835. We have but one fault to find with this work, and we will state it once and have done with it. Several of the letters of which it is composed, do not bear suf ficiently on those questions upon which the public is alone interested, and the author's style and manner are occasionally too flippant for the topics he is expected to discuss. A writer of Travels ought to eschew all attempts at rhyme, where his feelings are not suffi ciently intense to bid defiance to description in plain prose—a rule which Dr. Madden has more than once thought proper to dispense with. The great fault of modern Tourists, Travellers, and other descriptive writers is, that they seem to regard it incumbent upon them to produce a brace of volumes, however scanty their materials. In order to accomplish this, every resourse is taxed, and the most trivial matters are in troduced in the same sheet with disquisitions on the most important questions. The consequence of this is, that the writer's authority is considerably weakened; those whose interest it is to dispute his facts having only to refer with a sneer to some puerility thrust in to eke out the volume, to impugn his judgment, and through this vulnerable part, question his veracity, and deny the soundness of his conclusions. Dr. Madden left England for Jamaica in October, 1833, in company with five other gentlemen, all ap pointed stipendiary magistrates under the Slavery Abolition Act. After a favourable voyage of twenty four days, he landed in Barbadoes, and immediately proceeded thence to Jamaica, where he commenced the discharge of his magisterial functions. The vo lumes now before us are a series of letters addressed to several private gentlemen, his friends, in which he details the social and moral condition of the negroes, their habits ; peculiarities, propensities, and qualifica tions for the enjoyment of civil and religious liberty. He also treats of the customs and feelings of the plan ters and slave-owners ; examines their motives in de siring to perpetuate Slavery in the Colonies ; and con cludes with the astounding announcement, that the wisest, safest, and best course would be, to grant the slaves unqualified emancipation, doing away altogether with the term of apprenticeship ! "My opinion is," says Dr. Madden, (Vol. 11., page 242) "that the negroes are qualified for complete and immediate free dom ; and the attempt to keep them from it, for the term proposed by the new law, I greatly fear will lead to occurrences which no man can contemplate with unconcern." This opinion he corroborates in several other passages in the course of the work. " The more I have seen of the negroes in this island (Ja maica) and the more closely I have observed their conduct, the more reason I have to think that they are naturally a good-humoured, easily contented, kind-hearted race, amply disposed to appreciate kind treatment, and to be grateful for it."—(Vol. ii. p. 307.) And in another place he observes, " But the planters say the negroes will not work for wages : I can only say that my experience is altogether opposite to their's on this point. Hitherto the apprentices have not only cheerfully worked for wages, in the few instances in which it has been paid to them, but wherever they have been well treated, they have even been satisfied with moderate wages. Night work lam aware they will not do, as they have done it heretofore, for any wages ; neither is it desirable that they should." Dr. Madden appears to have been aware, that the advocates of slavery here would take advantage of his admission, that the negroes would decline to perform any kind of work. He therefore gives the following illustration of the degree of toil which a negro considers too much to be endured for the promise of wages which, five cases out of six, are never paid : " On the property of a gentleman who is one of the most humane owners in the island, I risited the works during crop time one morning, at a very early hour. The men, who were scumming the sugar when I entered, I observed appeared worn out with fatigue and watching. They had then been at work twenty. four hours without intermission, day and night ; it was then five o'clock in the morning : they had gone to work at the same hour the preceding day, and were to con tinue at labour till seven o'clock in the evening of that day, --in all, making thirty-eight hours of constant labour." - • Such is the labour to which the emancipated negroes will not submit ; and indeed, if they were to submit to it, we should pronounce them disqualified for the en joyment of freedom. Very different from the character of the negroes is that which Dr. Madden ascribes to the planters a nd slave proprietors, whom he represents as a cruel, liti gious, and indolent race. He assures his readers th a t they provoke the negroes sometimes by the grossest outrages, and oftener by the pettiest meannesses, in order to find some pretext for punishing them, and so thwarting the designs of the British Government. Both the quantity and quality _ - of their food is stinted and deteriorated, and every harassing vexation is practised upon them to provoke ,hem to break the peace, or otherwise render thew selves amenable to punishment. After acting as a magistrate for twelve months Dr. Madden was obliged to resign his appointment, in consequence of the daily Inuit and annoyance to which he was exposed by the planters, for only daring to discharge his functions im partially. He moreover declares that any stipendiary magistrate, who will have the hardihood to act im partially, and see strict justice administered between the planters and their apprentices, will do so at the hazard of his life. In making these grave charges the planterz, Dr. Maddcn does not confine himself to mere statements ; he quotes facts, and illus- trates r carry c Wonder full enj dares t such to be l ong the Ne; past '4vr impoter, cannot work 1)3 tion vvil tions ar Inane at This incident consider that we took it began r We rea before V % of the v 4 resting this, in that cou confiders ing, that Writings of Miss perceptit never sei tile—an , without " frightf ugly," 0/ persons.
