SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Our readers are referred to yesterday's proceedings in the House of Lords for proof circumstantial, if not direct, that the work of Cabinet-making is as yet to do. The Duke of Wellington was compelled to break his promise of moving the adjournment of the House to the 30th inst., because it would be " inconvenient to his Majesty's service" that the House should so adjourn. In other words, it is not yet settled what writs. are to be moved for, and the only certainty is that all the re quisite writs cannot be moved this day; so that Parlia ment must be kept together. His Grace, therefore, postponed his motion until this day, and gave notice that it would probably be necessary to abridge the period of adjournment. This will be thought by most people to speak for itself, as to the slow, if not uncertain, progress of the negotiations. Indeed, we are but little surprised at this ; though, speaking frankly, if the thing is to be done, we wish, for the sake of the public service, that it could be accomplished successfully and at once. The business of the country is, as seamen say, " going to leeward like a haystack" —the requisite funds for the several departments are not yet voted—no budget has yet been brought for ward—and as for the great measures of church or . other reform which Sir Robert Peel's official existence just sufficed him to explain, should they, from jealousy or other party causes not be followed up by the Right Hon. Baronet's successors, we should like to know at what time the nation will have a chance of obtaining substitutes for them at Lord John Russell's hands. But we repeat that there is no room for astonishment at the above or any further evidence of difficulty in the task which Lord Melbourne has undertaken. It is not disgraceful to his Lordship or to any man, that he can not alter the nature of things—that he cannot disperse obstacles which are rooted like rocks within the soil—that he cannot create materials where there are none—or enable a recognized minority of Whigs to outnumber a large ma jority composed of English and Scotch Radicals, and of Irish Repealers, for such are the relative ingredients of that which was until within these few days, and again bids fair to be a little while hence, the House of Commons Opposition. These proportions of the several elements which Lord Melbourne has to deal with, it is no crime in him unquestionably that he has not found means to transpose. But aware, as he must have been, that the obstructions thus consti- tuted were so intractable and so immoveable—con . scums, as any dispassionate man who took a moment's time to consider must have been, that he had no alter- native between an impossible Government, and one which could not fail to be its own destroyer and that of the country too—we are bound to charge his Lord ship great want of judgment, or what is more probable, though still strangely out of character for Lord Melbourne, with a weak subserviency to judg ments less discriminating than his own, in accepting, in stead of manfully eschewing, the invidious and hopeless office assigned to him, and telling his Majesty without hesitation, that he could no otherwise imagine an effective Government than by throwing overboard the Radicals of both countries—the English levellers and the O'Connellite repealers—and striving to bring to gether the only sections of British party which ac . knowledge a common interest in the maintenance of our institutions—viz., the 150 'Whigs and 270 Con servatives to be found in the existing House of Com mons. It would be dreadful to believe that the minds of men are too much imbittered by the animosity of political conflict, that they are too deeply immersed in selfishness or vengeance, to hear the wholesome coun sels of those who have no party but their country. The Whigs, it is obvious, would, on purely selfish grounds, be vast gainers by such a coalition, inasmuch as they would get five votes in exchange for three. - We are sure that Lord Melbourne is above being actuated by an unseemly wish to exult over his Sovereign, by a reta liation for any past discomfiture which he may him self have suffered, and which his Lordship must well know was not inflicted on him through any but the most conscientious anxiety in the mind of the Monarch to promote the well-being of his subjects, and from a conviction of the difficulty of keeping together_ that Cabinet which it is now found so difficult to recon struct. In the vulgar estimate of worldly vicissitudes, Lord Melbourne may be said to have had his revenge: but his Lordship, if we mistake not, has already found reason to be satisfied that " revenge is (not always) sweet." . We at least envy not the Minister whose Cabinet must unavoidably be bottomed upon the very narrowest foundation afforded by the political parties now in existence. The strongest of all being that against, which he has declared open hostility, and the next, by whose precarious, alliance he is forced to strengthen himself, . being one which will not act but for his eventual ruin ; can Lord Melbourne again stand the constant barking of Lord Brougham as his exasperated - enemy ?‘ Can he stand the more imminent peril of Lord Brougham's friendship, already known to him ? Will he endure to be blasted by O'Connell's support ? And does he not feel that a single adverse vote from the Repeal de magogue will on the instant burst the bubble of his air-built administration ? O'Connell has already fur nished a sample of the sort of forbearance and good behaviour by which he seeks to sap the Whigs, by his missive to the electors of Drogheda, commanding them to re-elect Mr. O'Dwyer, lately thrown out on peti tion ; and we find, from the Irish papers, that the priests of Ennishowen having hunted down the Pro testant Clergy, are turning their hands against the landlords of the country, and promising, from the altar, the help of the agitator in their resistance to the payment of rents. Such, Lord Melbourne, are your allies.—Times. The business of Cabinet-making goes on but slowly. There has been much putting together and taking asunder within the last few days. The ill-matched materials are not easily dove-tailed. Lord Melbourne is conscious that he labours under the eye of a task master who, if not pleased with his work, will speedily kick it to pieces, though he looks on at present with that affected tranquillity of temper which is but the calm before the storm. Lord Melbourne knows that if his Cabinet be not of such materials and construc tion as to obtain a certificate of character from Mr. O'Connell, he had better have remained all his life on the most obscure seat of the Opposition side of the House, than have tempted the chastisement which, in that event, his ill-fated ambition is sure to bring upon him. Better for him to share with Earl Spencer those rural felicities which Lord Morpeth so classically ascribes to him—the mugitusque boom dulces que sub arbore somni—than encounter the terrors of that slash ing " tail," which is wont to inflict upon delinquent Whig Ministers a punishment worse than the most lace rating discipline which galley-slaves endure. But it is a melancholy thing to see English statesmen reduced to the state of political degradation which the Whig- Radical section of the Whigs are obliged to endure to preserve the favour of the Irish Agitator, whom not very long ago they advised the Sovereign to denourice in the Speech from the throne—the Agitator, who avows that the great ulterior object which he has in view, and to which all his projects are subservient, is the dismemberment of the empire by the repeal of the Union—a consummation which the same Whigs so lemnly declared they would encounter the bloodshed and horrors of a civil war to prevent. When Sir. R. Peel was in the act of forming his Administration, much stress was laid by the Whig-iiad:_cal Papers upon the circumstance of Lord Stanley declining to join his Ministry, though he promised to give it his support, if its promised measures-of reform should be such as to satisfy the country. Why is it we do not hear now of Lord Stanley or Sir James Graham, or any of the more independent and respectable portion of the Whigs, joining the Administration of Lord Melbourne ? Can they place no confidence in it ? Are they disgusted with the Means which were adopted to prevent the measures of Sir Robert Peel from being submitted to the dispassionate attention of Parliament and the public ? Do they dread the resto ration of a Papal tyranny in the British dominions, as destructive of the liberties which the Protestant Con stitution secured ? Do they foresee that the confica tion of the property of the Irish branch ,of the Church of England is but the beginning, as in the instance of the zrand rebellion and the French revolution, of a system of spoliation and terror, which will endanger and unsettle all other species of property, and for which there will be no remedy but in the desperate alternative of a military despotism ? We believe that not only Conservative Whigs such as we have mentioned, but the great majority of the English people, are now con vinced that the dangers to be apprehended from the political influence of Popery are no longer speculative —that they ate real and imminent, and that the Minis ter who does not resist the attempt at a counter-refor- mation which is now in progress betrays the country. For our own part we cannot understand, we confess, those Whig-Radical instructors of the public who re present Popery as so exceedingly weak as to make it quite ridiculous to have any alarm about it, and yet who tell the world that Mr. O'Connell, the child and champion of the Popish system, is so powerful that it is wisdom to conciliate and madness to provoke him. In what does his power consist ? In wielding a band of some 50 or 60 Members of Parliament—either Pa pists themselves, or elected by Popish influence—the nominees of the Agitator and the Irish priests? What proprietor of votes under the rotten borough system ever had so many nominees in the House of Com mons ? What Popish agitator ever was so powerful in this country (leaving Ireland out of the question) since the dark and superstitious days of Thomas b. ' Beckett ? We quarrel not with any man for his religious opinions; we speak of the Papal system in its political character and aspect, and we think recent events abundantly show that Papal influence in this country " has increased, is increasing, and ought to be diminished." Protestant liberties and a Popish ascen dancy cannot, co-exist.—Morning Herald. We have occasionally observed allusions, in some of our Contemporaries, to conditions which the Court was supposed to wish to impose upon the Ministry now in a course of formation ; and in particular, that they should not presume to interfere with the Horse Guards. Whether any such condition have been offered to the Whigs, we possess no means of knowing ; and we sus pect our Contemporaries are not better informed on the subject than ourselves. But, however this may be, of one thing we are certain—that the Ministry who should take office on any condition so degrading to themselves, would soon find that the readiness to submit to one encroachment would lead to others ; and learn from bitter experience, that improper compliances, in the outset, are not the most efficacious means of enabling them to act with the dignity and firmness ne cessary to obtain the support of the people, on which alone a Reform Ministry can place a secure dependence. The Ministers of the Crown are its only responsible advisers known to the nation, and they cannot be responsible for the exercise of an au thority not placed under their control. The Consti tution recognises no withdrawal of any of the powers of government from the control of the Ministry, and the attempt to stipulate for any such withdrawal ought even to be felt by a Minister as an indignity offered to him. To say that the Horse Guards shall not be un der the control of the Minister for the time being, is to say that power shall be exercised without any responsi bility. The proposition. carries absurdity on the face of it. The King can only act through responsible ad visers, and yet the responsible advisers of his Majesty are to recommend that the Commander-in-Chief of the forces shall act subject to no responsibility It is .im• possible that if they have not the same power over the Horse Guards which they have over every other office under the Government, they can undertake to conduct the affairs of the nation with advantage, for they cannot know how powers may be exercised over which they have no control. To accept of office subject to any restriction whatever, would be practising a fraud on the nation. But we cannot believe that such an in sulting overture has ever been made to Ministers, as that to which we are now alluding. We are inclined to attribute the reference to the subject by our Con temporaries as mere conjecture, in the absence of po sitive knowledge. At all events, we are certain that neither Lord Melbourne nor any of the Statesmen now co-operating with him, would for a moment listen to any proposition to take office on terms incompatible with their own honour, and calculated to deprive them of the esteem of their coun t rym en.—MorningChronicle. Although nothing of a positive nature has yet been declared respecting those who are to constitute the new Cabinet, we have reason to believe that the most important Members of it have already received, and agreed to, the position which they are to hold, and that this evening will not pass over without the an nouncement of several names, not only familiar to the public, but gratifying to it, as guarantees of thoroughly liberal measures. Mr. Spring Rice, Mr. E. Ellice, Lord Palmerston (who, we understand, is to be made a Peer), Viscount Duncannon, Lord . Morpetli, the Earl of iViulgrave, and Mr. Poulett Thomson, are, we believe, to be Members of the new Cabinet, or in possession of high official situations connected with it ; and we have also reason-to believe that Mr. Hume, Mr. Bulwer, Mr. Tennyson, Mr. O'Connell, and many others who represent large sections of the Reform interest, will be appealed to for their support. Lord Brougham has. the seals in commendam, if we may use the expression ; and Lord John Russell, who as a matter of right as well as of gratitude for his past services, must be a leading member in the Cabinet, has expressed his determination not to yield one iota of liberal principle, for the sake of forming a Cabinet agreeable to views entertained in high quarters. With such a Cabinet, and with such principles, the country has nothing to fear. It will be strong in public opinion and in public confidence—it will have the nation at its back—tranquillity will be restored—com merce will resume its former prosperous course—and all the great interests of the country will feel that what of all things they have least to dread, and what they now fear the most—change—is the last evil of which they have a right to entertain any apprehension.— Morning Advertiser. In addition to the almost innumerable testimonies of respect and affection that have been already offered to Sir Robert Peel, an address from the members of the English bar is in course of signature, which, notwith standing the absence from London of a great majority of the profession, has already received a very consi derable number of names, and before many days are past a demonstration of the feelings of the learned and enlightened body in question will be afforded, which cannot fail to convince even the most obtuse and in credulous. In addition, indeed, to every other induce ment, we can easily imagine the sensations of those engaged in legal pursuits on the most remote prospect of the return to the Woolsack of the eccentric and in consistent individual whose only object seemed the de gradation of the profession to which he owed his eleva tion, and of which he was the nominal head ; of those who have found in Lord Lyndhurst the steady friend of rising merit and youthful talent, the learned, courteous, and patient Judge, the man born, as it may be said, for the eminent station which he at once dignified and adorned; of those who saw, at the same time, in the advance of an Abinger, a Pollock, a Follett, and a Cole ridge, the earnest of future promotions equally charac terised by judgment and propriety. We know it will be said, " of what value are the opinions of lawyers wedded to narrow and confined views ?" This is untrue. The members of the bar have been liberal to afault. It was al ways urged by the advocates of Roman Catholic eman cipation that at least one of the learned professions was favourable to it, and we know that many excellent and distinguished members of the Bar greeted the first an nouncement of the Reform Bill with satisfaction. They have, however, seen the extent to which what is called " Liberalism " may be carried ; they have observed with enlightened eyes and unobstructed vision the meaning of the terms with which the Russell- O'Connell faction have attempted to blind the peo ple of England ; and. they spurn with t: :e indig nation peculiar to the wise and intelligent the odious yoke which Popery and infidelity would place on the necks of the British nation. We learn, indeed, on all sides, that the prospects of the Conservative, or, as we should rather call it, the Christian party, are cheering and encouraging. The daily, the hourly, manifestations of 'confidence in, and admiration of, Sir Robert Peel, which proceed not simply from the rich and learned, but in an especial degree from the poor and humble, cannot fail to add courage and animation to our friends, and to fill the hearts of our opponents, of the enemies of all that is valuable and excellent, with terror and dismay. But there must be no cessa tion. Our good, patriotic, and true-hearted Monarch should be supported by his Protestant people ; his memorable declarations should be graven on our hearts, THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1835. and encourage, nay, command, us to rescue him from the danger which impends alike over the altar, the throne, and the cottage—a danger which, if not r.e sisted with zeal, energy, and determination, must be followed by a ruin terrible in its nature, unbounded in its extent—a, ruin which will involve the destruction of all that, as subjects, we respect, as Englishmen we love, as Christians we revere.—Morning Post. The wind is not more inconstant than the Times. In one thing alone it may be said to be consistent — the arrogance with which it expresses its opinions, though they are seldom for twenty-four hours the same. Of late this characteristic inconsistency of our contem porary has been pushed to an excess which must be felt as a very great inconvenience by the dolts who still take their opinions from it. Their heads must be ab solutely giddy with the rapid evolutions which are ex hibited to them. In the Times of July I, 1834, the Protestants of Ireland are distinctly told that they are themselves the authors of the destruction of the Irish Church, and that they cannot bear their faculties too meekly towards the Catholics : " The sober-minded Protestants (quoth our Contemporary) are one and all well assured, by this time, that were there nothing but political wisdom at stake, they cannot bear their faculties too meekly, or show too much regard for the feelings of that immense majority of the Irish people from whose exas peration they have, ere now, so deeply suffered, and have still, if it be needlessly provoked, such serious evils to anticipate. The putting down the Orange and Ascendancy system arose from the insolence of th Protestants themselves, and has been fol lowed by a great deal of Ua',l_oli- insolence. The Orangemen, for that humiliation, have none to blame but themselves. The extinction of the Tithe-system, and the iir. - . - ainent danger which threatens the Established Church of Ireland total subversion, are owing to the pertinacity, and blind and bigoted arrogance, of those who directed the measures of the Irish Clergy, or rather of those lay Oligarchs who considered the Church to be their proper prey. We repeat that the present almost hopeless condition of the Church of Ireland, as a temporal establishment, is chargeable, in the first instance, to the account of the Church itself—to the senseless obsti nacy and rampant violence of those who have been calling themselves its protectors, but who have been, in fact, its plunderers." In the Times of yesterday, the possibility of conci liating the Catholics—towards whom, in the above passage, the Protekants are told they cannot bear themselves too meekly—is indignantly scouted. The men - who, on the Ist July, were termed the destroyers of the Protestant Church, were yesterday eulogized for their success in hitherto baffling O'Connell. " Any aggressor," says the Times of yesterday, " Who proposes to inflict on his neighbour some grievous wrong, and threatens to quarrel with him if he resists the in justice, may unquestionably, quoad hoc, be pacified by the cowardice of the injured party, in submitting . quietly to be bullied. The matter stands thus:—The Papist party, with O'Connell for its chief, has long placarded, through speech and writing, a thirst for the overthrow of the Protestant Church, and the confiscation of its property, as well as that of the whole of the Protestant community, to other (that is, to Popish) uses, which ends, it is obvious, can never be so easily achieved as through a repeal of the Union. The repeal of the Union is therefore the avowed and distinctive policy of Mr. Daniel O'Connell ; so that there is nothing more intelligible than the advice of the Whig Radicals to the new Cabinet—we will add nothing of more ominous im portance to the English nation, if the counsel should he given with a previous understanding that it will be acted on, for it amounts to this—that the policy of the Melbourne Administration is to be that which will most effectually con ciliate O'Connell and his clique, by favouring the subversion of the PrOtestant Church, and the separation of Ireland from Great Britain 1 It is little wonder, therefore, that the Agi tator has given his eager assistance to the defeat of the Con servative Government, or that the infancy at least of the Whig-Radical power will have his strenuous support. He likes, of course, the men who have hitherto baffled him some what less than those whom he flatters himself that he can make the blind instruments of his most daring projects ; and this is the ' pure,'the liberal.' the ' disinterested' gentleman, who makes no terms '—not he —for himself! but only that Protestant Ireland shall be flung at his feet, to be spurned at his pleasure." Every one who ,has looked into the Times during the late discussion on the Tithe question, must be aware that it strenuously combatted the appropriation of any part of the revenue of the Irish Protestant Church to other than strictly ecclesiastical purposos. It is, however, now on another tack—all for appro priation. " Let nobody (says our consistent Contemporary) bring the dishonest charge against us, that, in struggling for the exist ence of the Protestant Establishment, and for the protection of our brethren of the same faith, we mean to say a single word in defence of ecclesiastical abuses, or of oppressions,.civil or ecclesiastical, from which those not Protestants may have suf fered. We have over and over again pledged ourselves to the obligation of turning to more useful objects any income which may on full inquiry be found unnecessary to the Church. If there be not Protestants to demand spiritual help from a pastor, it becomes self-evident that subsistence for such a pastor is not needed." What mote did Lord John Russell demand than this ? The Times seems to be determined that the Whigs shall neither have the aid of Mr. O'Connell , nor do without it. It first thundered against the Whigs, on the supposition that they were about to employ him. But when told that Mr. O'Connell had declined office,— " Then we say (quoth the Times) that such a Government cannot be composed of last year's Whigs, inasmuch, if they be not the most fickle of the human race (an accusation of fickleness from the Times ! !) and the most prone to an aban donment of all their own measures and opinions ' they will act on the same public principles as those which they professed last summer ; and therefore, so far from doing justice to Ire land,' they must entail on themselves fresh volleys of execra tions from Derrynane Abbey." The Times has been labouring hard to promote an alliance between the Tories, and Whigs. On the 1 2 th of July last, the possibility of such a union was treated with scorn and indignation The. inconvenience of a Cabinet not united (said our Contemporary) with regard to many important questions, must have been deeply impressed upon Lord Melbourne within the last twelve months. But the Grey Cabinet, even at the worst, was a mild form of heterogeneous—that is of noxious—mixture, when compared with that against the introduction of which into the Government, if current opinions be correct, Lord Melbourne' has had to struggle, or is at this moment struggling,—we mean the infusion of some avowed and leading Anti-Liberals into the new Ad ministration. It is plainly impossible that such a Cabinet could work together for a single week, without being de stroyed by its own internal friction. The elements of what was happily termed by the Standard spontaneous combustion, would be a thousand times more active and irresistible in such a Cabinet than in the Grey Ministry, which yet it is certain was destroyed by them. We • take it for granted, therefore, that as the issue of such an experiment must be obviosjs, not only to Lord Melbourne, but to any politician who has his eyes and ears about him, it will not be made at present --at least by a liberal or a Whig Statesman. Then what happens? If the Court should think otherwise, Lord Melbourne, or who ever is co-operating with the Noble Viscount for the formation of a Ministry, must throw up the game, and leave the King to seek advice from other quarters. His Majesty, of course, will not apply, in the first instance, to any pu! - ,lic man more liberal than the acting Secretary for the Home Department ( Lord Melbourne.) The alternative is, that his Majesty resorts to the Tories. But the Tories, with all their infatuated arrogance, understand the people of England well enough to know that their accession to office would now be premature. The Duke of Wellington's rude, unfeeling, and vindictive reply to Earl Grey on Wednesday evening, showed pretty broadly where the shoe pinched him. His Grace was out of temper because Lord Grey had virtually broke up his Ministry, be fore it suited his Grace's convenience, and that of his party to succeed. Months ago, we warned the Ministers and the nation of the game of which both were to be the vic tims. We told them that the Tories waited only until the session of Parliament should be near expiring, to oust the Whigs, and play such gambols during the seven months' va cation (perhaps kick up a general war for one of them) as might enable them to divert the spirit of the country, to throw an un natural share of power into their own hands, and turn a dis solution to the credit side of their account with fortune. We told the Whig Ministry not to wait for the opening of such machinations. It was our prayer to them to resign at that very hour—to tell the Sovereign that they could not carry on the Government for his honour or for the national well-being without more enlarged powers, or with so extensive an adulte ration of anti-reform spirit as then existed among them ; it was, as the event proved, a reasonable and friendly prayer, though, perhaps, not so regarded. Had they listened to us, they would have been enabled to defeat all the schemes of the Conservatives; the latter would have confessed themselves unprepared to govern England; and the Liberal Ministers must have had carte blanche from the Crown." The only thing the Times did not tell the Whigs in the above article was, that when the Tories should come to play their gambols during the seven months' vacation, and to turn a dissolution to the credit side of their account with the Times would, cm its part, astonish the country with its gambols, and take under its protection the very Tories 1 , 41c.ni it is so loudly abusing. But our Contemporary seems to be preparing for fresh gambols. A light is evidently breaking on our contemporary, that the Whigs will again be in power, and it is preparing for a move. yesterday, speaking of Church and Corporation Re forms, our ConteMporary observes—" However, as we are convinced that such salutary reforms would have met with no foul treatmen tfrom Sir Robert Peel, so we are now desirous c:1 ascertaining that they will be fairly dealt with by those who are about to succeed him." When our Contemporary begins to move, it moves fast. We should not wonder if another week do not pass before the Tories are termed dolts and boobies, and the Duke of Wellington proved to be the same narrow-minded man he was last autumn, before he was summoned from Strathfieldsey to form a Mi nistry. The Times serves all by turns, and betrays all by turns.—Morning Chronicle. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, APRIL 15. At half-past four Lord BROUGHAM commenced giving judgment in the Scotch Appeal of " Anstruther v. Anstru ther," remitting the case back to the Court of Session. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at five o'clock. The Duke of GORDON presented a petition from St. Nicholas, Aberdeen, in favour of the Established Church in Scotland. After some petitions being presented, ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE. The Duke of WELLINGTON said that last night he had given notice that he should this day move the adjournment of the House to the 30th of April, but finding that it would not be convenient to his Majesty service that the House should adjourn this day, he begged leave to postpone his motion till to-morrow. The Duke of BUCKINGHAM, under the particular cir cumstances, thought he might be excused for asking his Noble Friend to what period he meant to move the adjourn ment of the House ? The Duke of WELLINGTON said he intended origi ginally to move that the House should adjourn to the 30th ; but he was not aware, from the communications he had received, that it would be convenient he should make that specific mo tion to-day.—( Loud cries of hear, hear.) The motion he should make to-morrow would be, that the House should ad journ over the Holidays. Lord BROUGHAM said the usual course was that the House adjourn over Passion Week and Easter Week. The Duke of CUMBERLAND thought that their Lord ships should not adjourn fcr a longer period than the House of Commons. _ _ . The - Duke of WELLINGTON ha,l ro desire to move the adjournment for a longer period than v,as convenient for the public service. It was desirable that the House should not adjourn until to-morrow, On the motion of the Noble Duke the House then adjourned until to-morrow. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court was held for the despatch of business. THE CITY LAYSTALLS AT PUDDLE DOCK.—Deputy Hicks presented a petition, drawing the attention of the Court to the dreadful nuisance at Puddle Dock Laystall, in the Ward of Castle Baynard ; signed by the Bishop of Llandaff, the Rector, Churchwardens, and a great number of the most respectable inhabitants of the neighbourhood. The following is the medical certificate, signed by Doctors Clutterbuck and Roberts :—" Having this day witnessed the excessive nauseous effluvia emitted from the large mass of putrifying vegetable matter collected from the various markets and deposited on the wharf at Puddle Dock, I have no doubt of their proving highly injurious to the health of the neighbourhood, and I fully expect that a continuance of the same will produce a renewal of the same diseases as last year, and which we testified to last year.—" April 14, 1833." _ _ Deputy HICKS moved that the petition be referred to a Committee. After a few words from Mr. Pritchard, Mr. Wire, Mr. Hall, and others, the motion was agreed to. UNION OF THE OFFICES OF CITY SOLICITOR AND CLERIC COMPTROLLER OF THE BRIDGE-HOUSE ESTATES. —A long discussion took place upon the report of the Com mittee appointed to inquire into the duties and emoluments of the office of Clerk Comptroller of the Bridge-House, and to consider whether it would not be advisable to unite that office with "the office of City Solicitor. The report stated that the Committee were unanimously of opinion that it would be advisable to combine the offices. They were also of opinion that the present salary and allowance, amounting to 4001. per annum, payable to the Clerk Comp troller of the Bridge-House out of the Bridge-House es tates should be continued to the City Solicitor, and that a reduction of a similar amount should be made from the sa lary out of the City's cash to the City Solicitor, leaving the amount chargeable thereon 1,6001. per annum, whereby a saving would be effected to the City of 4001. per annum. Mr. DRINKALD moved as an amendment to the report, that the two offices should be kept separate. The original motion was carried by a majority of two, the numbers being 78 to. 76. SURREY SESSIONS. Joseph Salmon, one of the " go-cart " men who ply at the Elephant and Castle, was indicted for stealing a sove reign from the person of Anthony Ward, a countryman. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The CHAIRMAN remarked that robberies by " go-cart" men had become very frequent, many persons who ven tured into those descriptions of vehicles being not only rob bed, but also maltreated. The Court then sentenced the prisoner to be transported for seven years. Two girls, named Ann Bailey and Ann Sinznzs, were in dicted for stealing eighteen yards of cotton, the property of George Scanby, a linen-draper, in Blackfriars'-road. The prisoners were found Guilty, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment. _ After the trial of a few other unimportant cases the session terminated, when the Court sentenced four prisoners to transportation for seven years ; five to six months' hard labour ; three to three months ; four were acquitted ; bills not found, five. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday, a young woman named Agnes Sykes was brought up, charged with having stolen a child five years old, named Jane Evans, from its parents, William and Jane Evans, residing at 33, Clement's-lane. There was a second charge against the prisoner for stealing eight shillings, the property of the parents. The prisoner, it appeared, had been'known to the Evans's for a considerable time, and was in the habit of visiting them. The child was much attached to her, and was in the habit of walking out with her. On the Ist instant the prisoner said she was going to see some friends, and requested that the child might be allowed to go with her. They went away together, and nothing was heard of them for several days. Mr. Evans, in the meanwhile, missed Bs. from his trunk, which he had placed aside to pay his rent, and his landlord distrained upon his goods. Being by this time convinced that the prisoner. had taken the child away for some sinister purpose, he caused handbills to be published, offering 2/. reward for her apprehension and the recovery of his daughter. On Tuesday evening the prisoner re turned with the child and claimed the reward, alleging that she had only taken her down to Norwood, intending to bring her back. Upon searching a basket which the little girl carried with her a quantity of matches was found, and she stated that she had been set to sell them by the prisoner, who waited at a distance, while she sat by the road side and told a pitiful tale, in which she had been tutored by the latter. On Monday last she obtained 4s. Bd. in this way, but on Tuesday she got nothing, and then the prisoner brought her home. The little girl, who was remarkably intelligent for her age, was questioned by the Magistrate, and described her going some distance into the country, and the manner in which she was instructed by the prisoner to obtain money from the passers by. The prisoner admitted the fact of taking the girl away but denied that she had any sinister motive. She was 'remanded for a week. A great crowd assembled about the office, and the prisoner was loudly hissed and hooted as she'was taken away. QUEEN- S QUARE. Yesterday Fontaine Jena Benait, a young Frenchman, of highly showy exterior, who is strongly suspected of being one of a party of Parisian chevaliers d'industrie, who leave that capital during the Opera season in order to exercise their profession in this country, was placed at the bar for re-examination before Messrs. GREGORY and BURRELL, charged with attempting to pick pockets at the Italian Opera House. Mr. Smith, a gentleman residing at the west end of the town, w as in the habit of attending the Opera House with hi s f am ily. Upon one occasion last season he was present in the boxes, and observed the pickpockets very busy at work in the pit. He told his family that he would point out to them the tricks of the parties. He then pointed out the prisoner and his companion, who, the moment the act drop had descended, put their hats and gloves under the bench, and commenced operations by continually fol lowing gentlemen about the pit, and trying their pockets. A friend of his lost his purse about that time, and pointed out the companion of the prisoner upon a subsequent night as the person whom he firmly believed robbed him. On Saturday last he observed the prisoner and his companion in the pit of the theatre at their usual avocation, and he pointed them out to Handley, one of the officers. Handley saw the prisoner pushing from one side of the pit to 1,1-e other with his companion. They at last accosted a stout gentleman, and witness went up to him, but he had not lost anything. Nacn he came back the prisoner was in the custody of Mr. Last, the Secretary of M. Laporte. He at first agreed to go with the office:: to his lodgings. On the road there he offered 201. to cornprorniss: tl_!e affair, and he was taken to the station-house. A quantity of English flash notes, a valuable gold watch and chain, and various other articles, found in his lodgings, were here produced. As no distinct charge of felony could be proved against the prisoner, Mr. BURRELL expressed his determination to deal summarily with the case, and sentenced him to two months' imprisonment and hard labour at the House of Correction. The prisoner strongly protested his innocence and re fused to leave the bar, from which he was compelled to be removed by two of the officers in attendance. LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday James M'Carthy, a tate importation of " one of the finest pisantry," was brought before J. HARDWICK, Esq., on a peace warrant, which charged him with threaten ing to take away the life of Terrence M‘Gill3cuddy, a lineal descendant of the ancient family of the M‘Grilli cuddies of the Reeks, on the borders of the Lake of Kil larney, Ireland. Terrence, on being sworn, hitched his unmentionables, and commenced a preface to a lengthened speech. Mr. HARDWICK perceiving his object desired him to state the facts of his grievances as briefly as possible ?—Ter rence, who appeared somewhat disappointed at being de prived of having his say, exclaimed with a most melifluous Kerry brogue, " Indeed, then, your Worship, it fill a vo lume to give an outline without goin into the internal at all." He then went into a rambling story, from which it appeared that the head and front of offending was his 1 having received from his landlord, a benevolent gintleman, named Fry, a Protestant Bible, and his wife keeping a small school, at which children of all creeds were received, and allowed to read sectarian tracts, while she, the school mistress, was a Roman Catholic. With respect to receiv ing the. Bible he had the sanction of his ".Director," Fa ther Arabin (a Catholic Priest), of Virginia-street Chapel, to accept it ; and with respect to his wife's school, much of the jealousy of his neighbours arose through her receiving a weekly sum from Mr. Fry for her instruction of the poor, besides what she could get from the parents of the children. However, so it was, that he nor his family could not put their heads out of the door that they were not assailed with the yells of " Kerry turncoat," " D—d Sassenagh," " Swadler," &c., and their lives threatened. On Sunday morning last he was assailed when returning from chapel by a large'mob, who hooted him, and indulged in the above named terms, and it was with difficulty that he avoided their maltreatment. On the same evening the defendant same to his house, and knocked violently at his door and window shutter, and with the most horrid imprecations de clared that if he had him out he would do for him. Mr. HARDWICK ordered the defendant - to find bail, and give twenty-four hours' notice of solvency'of such bail to keep the peace and be of good behaviour to the com plainant and his family for six months. MARYLEBONE. Yesterday a well-dressed girl of the town, named Char lotte Dutton, was placed at the bar before Mr. Rawlinson, charged on suspicion of ,having stolen a valuable gold re peating wath, by Barwise, of b St. Martin's-lane, which she offered to pledge at the shop of Mr. Edward Marchant, pawnbroker, 103, Edgeware-road. Mr. Marchant stated that the prisoner, who was occa sionally in the habit of pledging trifling articles at his shop, came there about seven o'clock on the preCeding evening with a gold watch, which she wanted to raise money on. Witness, finding the watch to be of a very superior and ex pensive description; and worth at least fifty guineas, felt convinced that it had been stolen, and asked her to account for the possession of it, when she said that it had been pre sented to her by a gentleman a short time since, who came to visit her at the house Of Mrs. Wood, King's-place, St. James -street, where she was lodging ; but not believing her story, he sent for a constable, who took her into cus tody. It, however, appeared upon inquiry, that her ac count was perfectly true, and the gentleman was now in at tendance who could explain the affair. A gentleman_ of very juvenile appearance, wearing mus tachios, and very fashionably attired, here stepped forward, and said that his name was Edward Walker ; that he was in independant circumstances• and resided at the Bedford Hotel, Covent garden. He had known the prisoner about a fortnight or three weeks, and was in the habit of visiting her, as she had related ; and, upon one occasion, in lieu of cash, which he happened just then to be rather short of, he made her a present of the watch in question, telling her to dispose of it in any way she . might think proper. Mr. RAwLiNsoN here examined the watch, and asked Mr. Walker what it had cost him. Mr. Walker, with perfect indifference, replied that it cost him 95 guineas about a year since. It was made expressly for him by Mr. Barwise. Mr. RAWLINSON—And was you aware that you were bestowing such valuable property upon a common prosti tute ? Mr. Walker—l care not what she is. Mr. RAWLINSON—You seem to be very young, and un practised in the way of the world, therefore it is fit tha some one should care for you. _ _ . Mr. Walker (evidently much offended)—lt's my affair, not yours ; the watch was my property, and I had a right to give it to any person I thought proper. • Mr. RAWLINSON—I shall feel it my (tut) , to detain the watch until it shall be demanded by some of your friends, whom I should like to see upon the subject. Mr. Walker, on hearing this, turned suddenly round, and quitted the office abruptly. After his departure Mr. Marchant informed the Magis trate that he had had an interview with Mr. Barwise, the maker of the watch, who told him that Mr. Walker bad lately come into the possession of a large fortune by the death of his father, which he was dissipating as fast as possible. Mr. Marchant then withdrew, having put Mr. Rawlinson privately in possession of the name and address of the exe cutor to the young man's father. The prisoner was discharged. UNION-HALL. Yesterday, Win. Currall was brought before Mr. Traill for final examination, charged with inflicting a wound with a stone on the head of William Bryan, of which he has since died. The deceased's wife stated that on the 7th of March she and her husband got tipsey, and that on their return home some words arose between him and the prisoner, during which the latter called him " monkey face," and challenged him out to fight. They had a struggle together, but were eventually separated, after which the witness saw the pri soner snatch up a stone and throw it at her husband, who was then standing at the door of their house. The stone struck the deceased on the head, and he dropped to the ground as if he was shot, and when he was carried into his room it was found that the stone had inflicted a wound on his skull, from which the blood flowed in quantities. He was conveyed from thence to the hospital in a state of in sibility, where he died in a few days afterwards. The prisoner was committed for manslaughter. The Roman Catholics of Ireland are taxed to well :rwo Protestant establishments, the Presbyterian as well as the Episcopalian, for the Presbyterian Church is supported by a tax drawn annually from the Treasury under the name of regium donum. It is even said that the worst abuses in the Establishment have also extended to the Presbyterians ; and that, while within the pale of the former, there are tithes paid where no churches exist, it has also been for years the fact that regium donum is drawn for clergymen who are not alive. WAR.—We admire the pageantry of war—love to gaze upon the splendour of military array, forgetting the while that it ever has been, and never can be, any thing else than productive of private misery and national impoverishment. The richly decorated and well -accoutred soldier, who spends more than half his life in a .state of mental vacuity, lounging in listless idleness along our fashionable promenades, is reck oned a being far more deserving of our admiration and esteem than the humble schoolmaster, the " vulgar shopkeeper," or any other "mean-spirited animal," who is engaged in honest labour, and by his industry contributes to the said soldier's support.-- Chambers's Journal. EXECUTION.—On Wednesday morning George Pulham, aged 22, was executed at Bury gaol, for incendiarism. The prisoner, since his sentence, had exhibited deep and sin cere repentance, and, up to the moment of his exit from the world, displayed a due sense of his situation, and a moral cou rage in meeting his fate, which, in a better cause, would have done him honour as a man. A large number of persons assem bled to witness the execution. At nine in the morning service was performed in the prison chapel, during which the whole of the prisoners were present, and a sermon was afterwards preached. On leaving the chapel the sacrament was admi nistered to the prisoner. On_ a question being put to him as to the state of his mind, he expressed himself, as he had done several times previously during the morning, as being perfectly happy. On the drop, after looking round upon the multi tude, he said, " Good bye, good bye, and God bless you all; I hope my fate will be a warning to you, and I hope you gen tlemen farmers will give the young men work; it was the want of work brought me to this." - The prisoner made a full confession of his crime before conviction, and confirmed it since. FIRE.—A fire of the most alarming description broke out on Tuesday'night , about a quarter before ten o'clock, in the cellar of the extensive warehouses occupied by Mr. M'Mahon and others, wholesale silk merchants, hosiers, &c., No. 6, Wood-street, Cheapside. At the time above stated, Mrs. Brown, who lives in the upper part of the premises, was alarmed by a quantity of smoke issuing from the warehouses. She immediately gave an alarm to a watchman named Johnson, and he repaired to the engineer of the parish for the engine, but by some mismanagement or delay the fire had attained such an alarming height that in the course of half an hour the front and back warehouses were in flames, and property of the most expensive description reduced to ashes. Messengers were sent to the different engine stations, and through their quick arrival and the well-managed exertions of the firemen, the de struction was fortunately confined to the lower part of the pre mises. The loss of property is estimated at least at 3.0001., which is luckily covered by an insurance in the Sun Fire-office. How the accident originated is at present unknown. The con duct of tho watchman underwent strict examination by the authorities of the Wc.rd yesterday, as great blame has been at tubed to him for not procuring assistance sooner.
