YORK, NEWCASTLE, AND BERWICK RAIL WAY, &c. BILL. This Bill was read a third time and passed. CONSIDERATION OF REPORTS. The Reports on the following Bills were further considered and agreed to : Bristol and Exeter Railway (Branch from Bleadon to Wells, Glastonbury, and Street) Bill. Bristol and Exeter Railway (Taunton and Castle Cary Branch) Bill. Drumpeller Railway Bill. Great Northern Railway (Isle of Axholme Exten• sion) Bill. Leeds and Thirsk Railway (Harrogate and Pateley Branch) Bill. London and Blackwall Railway Improvement, and Branches to the St. Katharine's and London Docks Bill. Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway (No. 2—Deviation of Line, and Power to Shrews bury and Birmingham, and Birmingham, Wolver hampton, and Dudley Railway Companies to con tribute and make arrangements) Bill. SECOND READINGS. The following Bills were read a second time, and ordered to be committed : Hamlyn's Estate Bill. New Ross Port and Harbour Bill. GREAT WESTERN OF BENGAL RAILWAY. Mr. GREENE moved that the order made on the 20th of March last, referring the Great Western of Bengal Railway Company Dissolution, and Transfer of Capital to East Indian Railway Company Bill to the Committee of Selection, be discharged ; that the Bill be withdrawn. Mr. MARTIN opposed the motion, and it was ultimately withdrawn. BOARD OF ORDNANCE. Dr. 13 0 WRING gave notice that he should move for a Select Committee to inquire into the constitu tion of the Board of Ordnance. OATHS OF MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT. In answer to a question of Sir R. H. INGLIS, Lord J. RUSSELL sail he found he could not introduce the Bill of which he had given notice with respect to the oath of Members, but it was his intention to propose, on Tuesday, the 27th instant, that the House should go into Committee of the whole House for the purpose of considering these oaths. The Right Hon. Gentleman had referred to the defeat which had attended the Jewish Disabilities Bill in another place. The Right Hon. Gentleman would remember that a majority of the House at least had support e d th at measu re. —(Loud cheers.) With respect to th e oa th s of Members, he begged to inform the Right H on . Gentleman that many Noble Lords had scruple s i n ta ki ng the oath of su premacy, as they considered that the authority of the Pope as a spiritual prince extended to this country. It was with a view to obviate these scruples that he proposed to introduce that Bill. Sir R. H. INGLIS said the Noble Lord had told the House that all her Majesty's subjects would be able to take these oaths. He wished to know from the Noble Lord if this would refer to Mahomedans and Pagans ?—(Laughter and cheers.) Lord J. RUSSELL said that it was only in tended to refer to the born subjects of her Majesty, and he did not think there were many Mahomedans or Pagans in these dominions. CHARTIST DISTURBANCES. In answer to a question from Mr. G. THOMP SON, Sir GEORGE GREY said, with reference to the question asked by the Honourable Member, that he would have been better prepared to give the information required if notice had been given of the question. He had no hesitation in say ing that the police had acted throughout entirely under the directions of the Home Office. After the disturbances which had late taken place, to the annoy ance of the inhabitants in the localities is which the meetings had been held, it was the intention of the Government to put a stop to them. As the persons who assemb'ed had committed acts of violence against persons and property, it was the duty of the Govern ment to afford the inhabitants protection, so far as they were allowed by law, and he believed the law was complete in its effect for this purpose. The particular meeting in the Tower Hamlets to which the Honourable Member alluded was not interrupted by the police, but after the dispersing of the meeting the mob broke several windows in a church in the neighbourhood and the police were consequently obliged to interfere. A conflict took place, but he was happy to say that the police completely succeeded in routing the mob ; not, however, until thirty policemen were severely injured, and, he believed, one was stabbed through the hand by one of the mob who was armed with some dangerous weapon. In consequence of the experience which the Govern ment had had of the nature of those proceedings— proceedings which, he must say, deprived the parties of any pretext of their being for a legitimate object-- he had directed the police to take effectual measures to put a stop to them—(Hear, hear)—and he had no doubt, indeed he was certain, that most effectual and stringent measures would be put in force to pat down proceedings that were calculated to disturb the peace of those who were truly her Ma jesty's faithful subjects.—(Hear, hear.) ITALY AND AUSTRIA. Mr. MUNTZ, pursuant to the notice he had given, wished .to ask the Noble Lord at the head of Foreign Affairs whether it was true that her Majesty's Government had interposed in Italy in favoar of the Austrian Government; and if they had, he wished to know to what extent? Lord PALMERSTON was glad the Hon. Mem ber for Birmingham had put the question to him, as it enabled the Government to deny the false and calumnious reports that had been circulated with re spect to English agents in Italy. He could assure the lion. Member that there was no foundation whatever for the report to which he had referred—(Hear, hear)—and that the British Government, what ever might be their feelings on the subject, had done that which they considered to be their duty, remained quiet spectators of what had been going on. —(Hear.) With regard to what was going on at Naples, he believed that they had been greatly misrepresented, but it was his intention on a future day to lay on the table of the House the account given by the Charge d'Affaires at Naples, which he believed would show that he had nothing to do with them, and that they did not bear the character which they had been reported to bear. LAW EXPENSES AND JOINT-STOCK BANKS. Mr. AG' LIONBY moved, pursuant to notice, for the following returns :—Return of the names and amount of monies paid for law expenses to solicitors to public departments; stating whether for salary, professional charges, or from bills paid by individuals for official business, whether such solicitors are wholly or not paid by fixed salaries, distinguishing, as far as may be, the amount charged for attendances on the principal or other officers of each department, with the total amount of the bills for such attendances, and for law or other expenses charged to the public since the last return ; also, whether any such solicitors are engaged in private business, and, if so, whether in partnership, with the names of the partners, and the authority under which the public appointments are held (in continuation of Parliamentary Paper No. 603, of session 1843). Ac count of the number of private and joint-stock banks registered in each year from 1842 to 1847, both inclusive, of all the joint-stock banks existing in England and Wales on the Ist day of January, 1848, specifying their names, the dates of their establishment, the places where they had branches established, with the number of partners in each, on the Ist day of January, 1843, 1844, 1845, 1846, 1847, and 1848, distinguishing between those banks that issued and those that did not issue notes (in continuationof -- Parliamentary Paper, No. 85, of session 1843). After some discussion, the motion was withdrawn. BUSINESS OF THE NIGHT. In answer to a question from Mr. RICARDO, Lord J. RUSSELL stated that he did not intend to bring on the debate on the navigation-laws unless the Spanish question closed before ten o'clock. If; however, the discussion on that topic terminated before that hour he proposed that the debate on the navigation-laws should be resumed, and he should ask the Hon. Members who had motions on the paper for to-morrow to postpone them till Thursday, in order that the debate might be continued to-morrow. Should the debate on the navigation laws not come on to-night, of course it would stand over till Thurs day. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. ROUSE OF LORDS, June 5. Their Lordships assembled at the usual hour.

The restriction Duke gave notice that on Friday next he should ask the Noble Earl (Earl THEthe Poor-law P bo a O rd ß s - of L guardians,A Commissioners l Grey) when th ese medals would be issued, the time f when they w e r e p rom i sed having long passed by. respecting land Lord MONTEAGLE moved for a copy of a cir cular toletthe clerics fromter theo O the mode of administering relief to the families of persons retaining possession of land. He said the giving relief to the families of persons so situated was a contravention of the poor-law, and as it partook of a despotic character, ought to be put an end to. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE had no objection to produce the circular. After some discussion the motion was agreed to. THE CONTINENT. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY inquired whether any communications from her Majesty's representatives at the Courts of Rome, Naples, and Florence, with respect to the extraordinary circum stance of the troops of those countries having entered Austria and commenced war without any previous intimation of their intentions, and in violation of existing treaties, had been received ? The Marquis of LANSDOWNE did not wish to express any opinion on these matters, which might be construed into that of the opinion of the Government. There were no treaties in existence which made it imperative on the Government of this country to in terfere, and he did not think it would be advisable, under these circumstances, to lay any information which the Government had received on the subject on the table. CHARTIST DISTURBANCES. Lord BROUGHAM availed himself of the opportunity to call the attention of their Lordships to the fact that tumult still nightly prevailed in the metropolis and in other parts of the country. The apparent object of the lawless persons who took part in these unlawful assemblages was to wear out the police and other authorities, and it was, therefore, incumbent upon the Government to adopt vigilant measures to preserve the public peace, and to pre vent these lawless persons from setting the law at naught longer. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said, in the event of the measures which the Government had adopted proving insufficient to quell the disturbances to which the Noble and Learned Lord had adverted, the Government would not hesitate to come to Par liament to seek more ample powers than those which they possessed under the existing laws.—(Cheers.) GREAT YARMOUTH DISFRANCHISE/11EN T BILL. The Earl of DEVON then moved the second reading of this Bill. The Duke of RICHMOND thought the Bill uncalled for. If the law officers of the Crown were directed to prosecute those agents who had been convicted of bribery, they would hear no more of bribery in the borough of Great Yarmouth. Lord BROUGHAM coincided in the opinion ex pressed by the Noble Duke. The present Bill was, he conceived, introduced without any facts to support it, there being only certain suspicions upon which it was grounded ; and while for the futsire they might dis franchi6e the parties named in the Bill, he could not see i t how they coil (I do so by the present measure. Lord RE 'DALE' considered that the case, as set forth in the , was one tally free fwm objectioik and he should therefore supplFt the ineastife. ...._ ____ After a few words. from the Earl of DEVON, the Bill was read a second time. PROTECTION OF FEMALES BILL. The Bishop of OXFORD, in moving the second read ing of this Bill, said that the evil it aimed at formed only one portion of that great and painful question which involved the moral condition and the well-being of the people. The Bill was simply intended for the pro tection of females. It was not introduced for the pur pose of suppressing brothels, but to meet one great evil, namely, the entrapping by direct means of unwary and innocent females. There were ut present in this great whom living hadon prostitu tion, ledtu f modeepr oportionma o f life by th e di rec t ol et s to attack.—(Hear, hear.) Were it necessary to en t er tuni(et) arts not theiro o al ; persons e s thep rs er te') greater nt which w r thousandt the h e d present measure w as i nten d e d into any detail on this painful subject, be could make t on th e e d statements of the most appalling nature. H e cou ld country,persons o stationed purpose of intercepting young females co m i ng to aptrov all e that th the ere were from actually the town, and luring them off, by promises of good situa tions into those dens of infamy where their ruin was speedily accomplished.—(Hear, hear.) He was certain that whatever difference of opinion there might be among their Lordships as to legislating for the purpose of putting down brothels, he was sure there would be no difference of opinion among them as to the necessity of a reedy for this glaring evil, as they would no doubt all agree that those females were entitled to all the pro tection which the law could afford them.—(llear, hear.) lie confessed it was difficult to frame a Bill so as to meet the case, and on showing the present Bill to some legal gentlemen, several portions of it had been pointed out as calculated to render the other inoperative. These he had endeavoured to alter, and as he meant that the Bill should be submitted to a Committee before its third reading, these alterations could then be considered and inserted. It was not neces sary, he conceived, that he should say more on the sub jeer. It was a portion of their Lordships' duty to pro tect the morals of the community, ,and to punish, if they could, by legislation, great moral delinquency. It m laanw e nd n c oet m ih. a o aEn r t d a nw l a o sr to omm protecto r al , those s e t h w e r h e o ,w froma s a gsliamnpdlicwithyi,chfetllhveyietwilenrsetob bound to e t c o e p tcarrydeceptions out, and a p th ri e n i c r ip o l w e n o i f gn th o e . was true they could no t b y A ct of Parliament make r intrigues of others; and if a Bill could be framed which would but make this trade of entrapping females more difficult, much good would be done.—(Hear, hear.) The state these poor creatures were led into was the most degraded and wretched that could be conceived, and very frequently resulted in their putting an end to their own existence. Ile trusted, therefore, their Lordships would interpose on their behalf, and would, therefore, move the second reading of the Bill. Lord BROUGHAM said, although he had opposed a measure which was formerly brought forward on much the same subject, after the statement of the Right Rev. Prelate, so ably and feelingly made, he did not intend to oppose the second reading of the present measure, more especially as any alterations could be made upon it in Committee which were thought necessary. No doubt a great evil existed, and much misery was entailed on those unfortunate creatures from the system referred to. At the same time, there were great difficulties in the way of getting these evils remedied; but, as he hoped these were not such as could not be overcome, he should vote for the second reading of the Bill. The Bill was then read a second time. CRUELTY this T ANIMALS PREVENTION BILL. On the Duke of BEAUFORT mov i ng th e second Lord CAMPBELL made some objections to various of its clauses, but the purport of which did not reach the gallery; and, After a short conversation, joined in by Earl Fitz hardinge, Lord Redesdale, and the Earl of Malmesbury, The Bill was read a second thee. COLLECTOR OF CESS (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of the Marquis of CLANRICARDE this Bill was also read a second time. EVICTED DESTITUTE POOR (IRELAND) BILL. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE next moved that the House go into Committee on this Bill. The Earl of ROI)EN could wish that the measure should be postponed until after the holidays, as he had some amendments to make. Tho Marquis of CLA.NRICARDE regretted that be could not comply with the Noble Earl's request. Ile had several amendments to propose to the Bill himself, when in Committee, and perhaps these might obviate the objections of the Noble Earl to the Bill. Their Lordships the❑ went into Committee, and the clauses having been agreed to, the house resumed, and their Lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, June 5. The SPEAKER took the Chair shortly before Four o'clock. Lord MARCUS HILL SPAIN brought up by command of her Majesty certain dispatches from Sir H. Bulwer to Lord Palmerston. The third reading of the Midland Great Western Railway of Ireland (Deviation Line from Mullingar to Athlone), and Stirling and Dunfermline Rail way (Amendment and Deviations) Bills, were post poned to Thursday next at the suggestion of Mr. BERNAL, in consequence of some informalities. DEMERARA. Mr. ROBINSON, the Hon. Gentlema n th e Under-Secretary for the Colonies in his place, wished to ask him whether the Colonial-office had re ceived a dispatch from the Governor of Demerara, announcing that the Legislative Assembly of that colony had refused to vote the taxes, and whether it was the intention of the Hon. Gentleman to lay that dispatch on the table of the House before the debate relative to the state of the West Indies came on ? Mr. HAWES said such a been re. ceived, but he was not prepared to say whether it would be laid on the table. In answer to a question from Mr. URQUHART, Lord I'AIXERSION stated that her bljesty's G& . ~ 4 Government were diati b‘wee wee 4 Denmark independent] d not in conjunc 'on • h any other nation. SPAIN. n reply to a question from Mr. URQUHART, aord VALAIERSTON said that the papers rela tive to the application made last year by the Govern ment of Spain, for aid under the Quadruple Treaty, had already been laid on the table of the House ; but with regard to the supplies of arms and warlike stores furnished by this country to Spain, they had not yet been moved for. The correspondence relative to the Spanish marriages which had been laid before the French Chamber was a corre spondence which took place between the French and Spanish Governments, and he had no control over it whatever. BOROUGH OF HORSHAM. Mr. GORING moved that Mr. Speaker do issue his warrant to the Clerk of the Crown, to make out a new writ for the election of a burgess to serve in this present Parliament for the borough of Horsham, in the room of John Jervis, Esq., whose election has been determined to be void. Mr. HUME said he was surprised at the motion of the Hon. Gentleman, when there were two Bills before the House, one for specially inquiring into the case of Horsham, and the other for a more general inquiry into cases of bribery at elections, and moreover when it was known that only a portion of the bribery , and treating which took place at the Horsham elec tion was exposed before the Committee. He hoped, therefore, that the Honourable Gentleman would withdraw his motion, and if the Bill which he (Mr. Hume) proposed to bring in for Parlia mentary reform were passed, it was his belief that Horsham would not again return a Member, but would be included in one of the electoral districts into which the kingdom was to be divided. Mr. ANSTEY thought that if they did not con sent to the motion the House would be creating a dangerous precedent. Sir JOHN HANMER, thought it was rather too soon to issue the writ after the cases of bribery and corruption which had been proved before the Com. mittee. Sir R. PEEL said in 1642 an Act was passed for the purpose of attaching penalties to certain customs and usages which had long prevailed at elections in particular boroughs, but he regretted to say that Act had been almost inoperative. These acts of bribery and corruption, however, were more attributable to the conduct of agents than to the Members themselves. lie was prepared to vote for the suspension of the writ until some inquiry was made, but he did think it was the imperative duty of the Government to press forward that inquiry in order that large and populous places might not long remain unrepresented. Lord JOHN RUSSELL agreed with the Right Hon. Baronet the Member for Tamworth that the writ should be suspended, but he did not think that the other business of the House should be suspended for the purpose of considering the subject. It had been said that the suspension of the writ was without prece dent. He believed that there were numerous precedents on the subject, and he should therefore vote against the motion for issuing the writ. Mr. DISRAELI supported the motion for issuing ;he writ. Mr. BANKES said that if the Noble Lord at the bead o f th e G overnmen t wou ld go on with his Bill he would support him in it; if he did not, he would sup port the issuing of the writ. Mr. A. STAFFORD said that the course that had been adopted by the Government was not the one calculated to induce the people to believe that they were sincere in the desire :that they had expressed to improve the condition of the people.—(Hear, hear.) The borough cf Horsham had returned a near and dear relative of the Right Hon. Gentle man. His election had been declared invalid, and because Horsham could not do more for the Attorney - General, and his near and dear relative, he had deserted his post in the House, and left the Noble Lord at 'the head of the Government to vote anu speak against the issuing of the writ for that borough.—(Hear and laughter.) He was delighted to hear from the Noble Lord that this question was a question of growing importance, whether writs should issue in these cases. He would give his vote for the issuing of the writ, because no case had been made out for disfranchising the borough. Mr. MUNI Z said that he hoped an extension of the suffrage would cure the evils which had been complain e d of in this instance. What the p eo pl e complained of was, that there were Members in that House who bought their seats, and did not represent the people. The num ber of voters in all these small boroughs should be ex tended, and that would put it out of the reach of all those who wished to make a bad use of them from doing so. Mr. GOULBURN said the indefinite suspension of writs was a great public evil. It was giving a tyrannical power to the majority in that House. For three months past this writ had been suspended, and yet no progress had been made with the Bill of the Noble Lord, and he now declined to give any information about it. Captain MANGLES said that the corruption which had taken place in Horsham, and the districts round it, was enormous. The whole country was flooded with beer.—(A laugh.) sir. SIDNEY HERBERT said that three boroughs had slipped through and got their writs, and he hoped the House would not permit the further inconsistency of issuing a writ in this case, especially while two pieces of legislation were pending for removing the evil. Mr. STEWART said that the principle laid down by the Right Honourable Baronet (Sir R. Peel) should guide their votes. There were no ground s f or suspend ing this writ, then why suspend it? It there was ground for charging bribery, they might suspend the writ, but unless they had that, there was nu ground for suspend ing the writ. Mr. GORING said he was surprised at the conduct of her Majesty's Government. They voted for a new writ for Derby, where bribery was proved, and refused it to Horsham, where no bribery was proved. He was not surprised at the opposition of the Hon. Member for Montrose to this motion, for he (Mr. Goring) had always considered his opinions at variance with the best prin ciples of the British Constitution.—(Hear and laughter.) The despotic spirit of the spurious liberality he advo cated now showed itself in its true light. He always con sidered that it was the principle of the British Consti tution to consider a man innocent till he was proved to be guilty, but the Hon. Member for Montrose would not only find him guilty befure he was proved to be so, but would inflict the heaviest penalty, namely, disfranchise.. ment.—(Cheers.) The country and the House would see from this to what tyranny they would be subjected if the Hon. Member succeeded, as he proposed, is up setting the established institutions of the country. Mr. lIUME, who rose amidst loud cries of " Spoke," said that he considered those to be the real despots and destroyers of the constitution who voted for this mo tion.—(Cries of " Spoke," and " Divitle.") The douse then divided, when there appeared— For the issue of the writ ll7 Against it Maj ority against the issue of the writ-114 ARREST OF COL. BRISTOWE. The O'GORMAN MAHON wished to know from the Noble Lord whether he had received any official in formation respecting the arrest of a British officer by the Governmedt of Spain? The subject had excited considerable interest. Lord PALMERSTON said he had received informa tion to the effect that Col. Bristowe had been arrested and expelled the Spanish territory. No reason, as far as he knew was assigned for that expulsion. He thought it his duty to make inquiry on the subject, and as yet had received no satisfactory answer. THE SPANISH QUESTION. Mr. BANKES rose to move as an amendment to the order of the day the resolution of which he had given notice:— ",That this House learns with deep regret from a corre spondence between the British Government and the Govern ment of Spain, now on the table of this House, that a pro posed interference with the internal concerns of the Spanish Government, as conducted under the authority and with the entire approval of her Majesty's Ministers, has placed the British Government and our representative at the Court of Madrid in a position humiliating in its character, and which is calculated to affect the friendly relations existing ibe tw eta the Courts of Great Britain and Spain." _ _ Amongst the singular events which distinguished the present year, it was not the least singular that a British Minister, perhaps for the first time, had been expelled from a friendly foreign country by the Court to which he was accredited, and it in no degree tended to dimi nish the singularity of this event to observe the manner in which that fact had been received by her Majesty's Government—the complacency, the quiet and tranquil lity, they evinced in regard to it. And yet, it was ut terly unexpected by them, because, a few days ago, t w h e e r i e r atenstwheersefftoeetretehtaiotnaneptuwit thtsotathndemingonantybetrsaunbsjaecct tions which had taken place, the friendly dispositions of the two Courts were in no degree disturbed. So little emotion did it excite in their minds, when on a sudden they received a dispatch, informing them of the extraordinary event, that were it not for quo. tions put to him in that House, the Noble Lord the Secre tary for Foreign Affairs would not have thought it neces sary to make any communication to this House, and they should have learned this transaction for the first time, as they had learned all other transactions relating to the foreign diplomacy of the country, from the columns of foreign newspapers. It did seem surprising that no member of the Government, on receiving the report of a transaction so utterly unexpected by them, should have thought it right to give some explanation on so anxious a subject—anxious to all who felt interested in the honour and character of the country; and that it should be left to a Member of the Opposition to give the Go vernment an opportunity of making this explanation. It was asserted by the Duke of Sotomayor, or in the papers before them, that the Cabinet of Great Britain did not justify the conduct of their Ambassador. The Noble Lord would now have an opportunity of stating whether or not the Cabinet of Great Britain had given authority to the Duke of Sotomayor to make any such assertion. The Noble Lord ought to thank him for giving him the present opportunity of making ex planations with regard to the real state of the question, because he was greatly mistaken if he supposed that there was any want of spirit in this country to resent an affront to it in the person of their ambassador, or that it would endure an injury of the; desCription.— (llear, hear.) fie was of opinion that instead of being premature, this debate was too long delayed, and that it was due to the character of their ambaustor that vt No. 17,377.] LONDON, TUESDAY E VE N N TWO HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecar i e s ' Hall, Lon don , Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source iu every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused. the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less Injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete acCount of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions hi health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed.

H. Wyatt's design for those arrangements, and of the manner in which they were applied; for when the extensive suite of apa r t m ents was lighted up and decorated with wor k s of art and mechanical models, and the staircases and corridor lined with choice plants, the coup doeil was charming; the refreshment rooms were extensive and the cheer was on the most liberal scale, as might have been expected from the well-known kindness and hospitality of the President. who was well supported in the reception of his guests by the vice-pre• sidents and council s ,and Mr. Maaby, the secretary, upon whom devol ve d t h e d ut i es o f the selection of the models and works of art, and all the arrangements of the evening. From so extensive a collection our limits will only per mit our noticing a few of the principal objects, and even , those cursorily. Upon the walls were the three fine portraits, by Lucas, of Mr. George Stephenson, Mr. Robert Stephen son, M.P., and Mr. Bidder ; they were contributed by Messrs. Graves, for whom they are about to be engraved. Messrs. net C po o s ln it a i g un hi ; 's a c nd olle th ct e io d n ra o w f i t u h g e s,b copiesyNash, of the Cox' . reggio frescos, by Fos c hi, occup i e d ve ry deservedly a prosin Scanlan, Taylor, and oth ers , w i t h portfoliosofh; Lance,ketcfes by Oliver, Hildebrand, Digby, Wyatt, and others excited general attention, A trophy, carved in beech, by Taylor, Williams, and Jordan's mechanical process of carving, was seen to great advantage. The Electric Telegraph Company, Mr. Bain, Mr. Brett, and Mr. Reid, contributed instru ments exhibiting their various systems of telegraphic communication, electric clocks, and electric printing. 21r.

Ransom° and May, of Ipswich, and formed a most attractive object. The models of greatest interest were those of Mr. Ste phenson's wrought iron tubular bridge of 400 feet, erected at Conway, with that of his wrought iron tubular girders for large spans; Mr. Fowler's steamboat floating landing-stage, with its long approach over the mud banks, to be accomplished upon Mr. Mitchell's screw piles, for the Humber ferry. Mr. Brunel's excellent truss of 110 feet span, used by him in the Somerset Bridge, on the Bristol and Exeter Railway. Mr. Fowler's plan for opening or shutting, simultane ously, four gates, for a level crossing on the line of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway. Messrs. Taylor, Williamson, and Gordon's model of their machine for carving by machinery.ornamental ob jects, figures, or groups, such as we have previously no ticed. This machine, by means of a tracer which guides the cutting tools, is enabled to perform the most delicate and elaborate work with great speed and at a cheap rate. Messrs. Seaward and Capel contributed such a large collection of models of paddle-wheels and screw-propel lers as almost to illustrate a history of marine propellers. Some of them, as well as their own methods of raising and lowering the screws at the stern of vessels, were contrived with great ingenuity, and the models were beautifully executed; indeed so perfect a set of models is rarely seen. Messrs. Maudsley and Field also contributed an inte resting series of models of steam-engines, screw-propel lers, and paddle-wheels ; as did also Mr. Penn of his horizontal trunk steam-engine. Mr. Clarke exhibited a beautiful model of the Great Britain steamer, full rigged, and containing fac similes of the engines, with the screw propeller complete, and working by means of condensed air ; the whole only weighing one ounce: as a piece of ingenious workman ship this could hardly be surpassed. Mr. Cowper exhibited a very ingenious system of de termining the resistance of screw propellers. Messrs. Clarke and Varley's atmospheric pile-driving machine, rotating air pump, were both very useful ma chine.. Mr. S. P. Bidder's simple and effective coal-drops, Mr. Dodd's rail straightening machine, Mr. Southam's wedge and screw fid, Mr. Thornton's improved hydraulic lifting jack, Mr. Wetherell's iron twister, Mr. Beattie's new wooden railway with the drawing of the system of manufacturing it were all most interesting, as was also the model of a folding boat, of which each% side was made of two thicknesses of waterproof cloth rendered non-absorbent, and consequently rendering the boat in• capable of sinking, even when full of water, and even when partially torn by accident. The expedition in search of Sir John Franklyn has been furnished with boats of this description, in order that they may be easily transported across the ice, an d may bear in juries which would destroy a wooden boat. Life buoys, swimming belts, &c., were with the boat, as also a model, showing the system of transferring an ordinary wherry into a life-boat, by the use of the material, as in the case of the wherry recently built for his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. The Gutta Percha Company sent an excellent se lection of their products, from the rough material, throughout all its stages of manufacture, to the finished articles. Mr. Chubb's safety chest, and locks and keys, Mr. De le Fun's ingenious locks and bolts, Mr. Defrie's im proved dry gas meter, the new amroid barometer, Mr. Shepherd's models of self-acting gates, with numerous other models and specimens, all interesting and invit in g longer examination, but which space will not allow us to notice, so completely occupied the attention of the mem bers and visitors, that it was not until an early hour in the morning that all had departed, after partaking of the President's hospitable reception. The same reason prevents the enumeration of the names of the visitors; for among upwards of a thousand guests, it was too difficult a task to ascertain who was there. We can only say that we have seldom seen more unanimity in ;ifie determination to be happy, and make others so; and liWitiist, that having so prosp e ro u sly commenced the 9 206Orsaz;oni at the house of the institution, they may continue to be held there, and be of great benefit not only to this useful institution, but to others in inducing them to follow so good an example. SINGULAR CIRCUMSTAN CE.—Last week, while s ome men were getting gravel in the river Trent, between Torksey and Dunham, a tine salmon leaped i nto the boat, and was at once captured. It weighed 181 b Notts Journal. FATAL EFFECTS OF THE BITE OF A CAT.--"About three weeks ago, Mrs. Gurriot, the wife of the foreman at the Messrs. llardisty's silk factory, Shepton Mallet, observed that her cat, which was ill, was lying in an awkward position. She lifted her up for the purpose of altering it. The cat, on being touched, turned and bit Mrs. Gurriot severely in the thumb. She did not pay much attention to the hurt at the time, and shortly after waxled some clothes, but, as the hurt began to grow very painful, medical aid was called in, and the part cut out. It continued to get worse, her arm, head, and gradually her whole body, swelled to an alarming ex tent, and she expired on Monday in great agony. She has left a husband and a family of children to lament her.—Bath Gazette. Two POCKETS BETTER THAN ONE.—BURGLARY AT PONTARDULAIS.—On Saturday night the premises of Mr. George Thomas, shopkeeper, Pontardulais, were burglariously entered. The thieves went up to a bed room, in which Mr. and Mrs. Thomas were asleep at the time. Mrs. Thomas's pockets were searched, and the key of a drawer of the shop was found. They returned to the shop and ransacked the drawers, taking there from about 21. 10s.

In early life he also published his two novels, " Lochinclhu," a romance, and " The Wolf of Badenueh."

POSTAL ARRANGEMENTS WITH SCOTLAND.--The merchants in this town connected with Scotland are complaining grievously of the postal arrangements with that quarter. At present the box at the post-office is closed at half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, just at the busiest period of the day. Letters by this mail arrive in Glasgow and Edinburgh before two o'clock the next morning, to remain in the post-office till eight o'clock. Some time ago they petitioned the Post master to grant a separate mail fur Lancashire, to be dispatched in the evening about seven or eight o'clock, which would convey letters to be delivered at eight o'clock next morning. The Postmaster replied that, whenever the railway communication through out was finished, some alterations to suit their convenience would be made; but, so far from this having been done, now that the whole line of railway has been completed for six months, no improve ment has been adopted. Letters from Scotland, in stead of being delivered in Liverpool by the first de livery, arc not given out till a quarter before ten o'clock, a most inconvenient hour, as business com mences on our Exchange beibre that time, and the mer chants are thus prevented having their arrangements made before business begins. They have again me moralized the Post-office to grant a single mail from both ends, to be dispatched at eight o'clock in the af ternoon, and as the railway trains run in nine hours, the mail would arrive at six o'clock the following morn ing ; but in the Post-office every convenience is sacri ficed to suit the arrangement of the mails to and from London.. —Liverpool Albion. ABDUCTION OF YOUNG FEMALES.—On Saturday morning a young lady, residing in Albert-road, Re gent's park, and park, was discovered to have quitted her father's resi dence; the assistance of t i ] te o , li , '' ‘etunately succeeded in tracing her to a house of a 'etion in Duke-street, St. James's-square, 'aced, there is no doubt, for the se d her from the -z e SL„ . s e -etcher of music, who had 1 ' basest purposes, oil, ziNgl' - k eoof.

The country everwhere looks splendid, the orchards, gardens, and fields giving presage of crops equally abundant arid ex cellent.—Liverpool Albion of Monday. CLUBS FOR THE PURCHASE OF ARMS.—We under stand, from good authority, that numbers of workmen in this town are enrolled in clubs for the purchase of fire-arms, with what intent may be easily surmised. Of the whole of the workmen engaged in a large public establishment, it is said that there are not six who are not members of these combinations ; and some of them make use of very significant expressions with regard to certain persons high in place, which, were it nut that " threatened men live long," might lead us to fear for their safety. It was reported un Tuesday that the clubs had been provided with a specimen of a firelock and bayonet from Birmingham, which might be had (whole sale) for 12e. 6d.—Leicester Chronicle. GATHERING or YOUNG IRELANDERS ON SUNDAY, AT BIRKENHEAD.—Last night, at six o'clock, an open air meeting of fraternized Chartists and Young Ire lenders was held at Birkenhead, for the purpose of organizing, if possible, amongst the labourers there, armed confederate clubs. Between 200 and 300 per sons assembled, end very little enthusiasm was mani fested in the proceedings. A Mr. Gallagher was called ' to the chair ; and the meeting was addressed at some length by the redoubtable Dr. Reynolds, of pike selling celebrity. On the motion of Mr. Robert, se conded by Mr. Gough, a resolution was passed to the effect, that no Irishman could any longer, without being a tyrant to his country or a coward, hesi tate to join the Repeal cause, and inviting all in the district to unite and form a branch of the Repeal club. The address of Dr. Reynolds was of the usual character, in the course of which he talked of oppres sion, and of battle-fields, and exhorted the people to arm, expressing his readiness to follow Mitchel if he were certain that his removal would induce 1,000 Re peelers to occupy his place. Cheers were given for Mitchel, the Charter, and Repeal; groans for Lord John Russell and the Irish Attorney-General; and ,a resolution passed, " That every feeling of justice and of gratitude impels us to make common cause with the Chartists of England; and we pledge ourselves never to desist from agitation till England gets the Charter, and Ireland Repeal." A young man, named Parkes, seconded the resolution, which was unanimously passed. A resolution was then carried, " That, after the wisest patriot, the martyred hero of r . —.L h e i v e meet in p 001 Ireland, we call our club—the John Mitchel club, and pledge ourselves to act upon the advice, and follow the Chivalrous conduct caobnoduutetthorfeteh-qatuamrtiescrs o alle f d a l n el h on ou ."

POLIC 13 RASCALITY.— An extraordinary excitement existed in Swaffbam and the neighbourhood, in conse quence of its having been discovered that a burglary on the premises of Mr. Thomas Spanton, of the Friars Thorns Farm, on the night of the 24th ult., was con cocted by the rural police, under the management of Superintendent Peglar, of the Castlescre district, Mr. Inspector John Low, and privates Smith and llaylett. Effigies of Peglar and his men were paraded about the town, and on one occasion there could not have been less than two thousand persons present, with torches, drums, 84c.—Liverpool Mail. A deputation, consisting of Mr. Richard Keating (T.C., Dublin), Mr. J. M'Cann, Mr. Stephen P.
