To-morrow is the day on which the Parliament re sumes its legislative functions, after a long interrup tion of the public business, occasioned by the un constitutional resistance of the late Administration to the national will, repeatedly declared through the na tional representatives. The patriotism of the Tories has in this received a fresh elucidation. They have added another to the many existing proofs, that they regard themselves and their places far more than they do the interests of their country. That the public inconvenience has not been much greater is no fault of their's. Of every obstacle which they could throw in the way of the new Ministry, either by secret intrigue and underhand plotting during its for mation, or by factious and unprincipled opposition to the re-election of some of its Members, they have not scrupled to avail themselves. With what success, particularly in the latter mpde of embarrassment, it might be cruel to remind them- 7 -we need not say more than that out of twenty four elections they have carried the astonishing number of ONE. This we allow is a great deal more than they were entitled to-..much more than they could ever have thought of gaining with fair play ; for well do they know —aye and bitterly do they feel, that were they not to resort to the powers of darkness for help—were they to abstain flum bribery, intimidation, calumny and all the other unhallowedmeestalihich they use to influence the mindaeof the electors--immood. of one vote in twensy lbur, they *fluid not have one in &hundred through out the country• e umeasied Cir as the KING'S Ministers now are, and with so little of the Session of Parliament remaining, their obvious policy is to bring in at once the two great measures to which the country has long been looking with the most anxious expectation. The abatement of the Corporation nuisances, and the purification of the Church, are really the only subjects connected with Reform that at present occupy the attention of the public—these completely engross it ; and it cannot well be otherwise, because the people are persuaded, and every day's observation rivets the persuasion, that until these Reforms are carried, it is utterly vain and futile to think of remedying grievances, or correcting abuses, which flow from these two ever-bubbling fountains of corruption, as naturally as the stream flows from its source. If the Members of the present Ad ministration ever entertained a doubt (which we do not believe they ever did) as to the necessity of such a searching reform in the institutions to which we have alluded, as shall completely root out the abuses with which they are over-run, and by which they are con verted into instruments of deadly mischief to the moral character as well as to the civil liberty of the people, we are sure that doubt has been removed, swept away, eradicated, by the events of the last three weeks. Lord JOHN RUSSELL has experienced the working of the system among the Corporations, civil and ecclesi astical, in Devonshire—and there is no schoolmaster whose lessons come home to the mind with half so much effect as those of experience do. We may there fore expect—we hesitate not to say—sweeping mea sures of Corporation and Church Reform. None else, we are quite sure, will satisfy the country, and none else can save the Ministry. The East Norfolk Conservatives have at length mustered pluck enough to form an Association ; the establishment of which they celebrated, on Friday last, by a public dinner, in St. Andrew's Hall, Norwich. Considering the cause that bad brought them together —that cause which they profess to have so much at heart, and which they tell us is bottomed on justice and common sense—it is surprising how little argument or animation the speakers showed on this occasion. If the dinner was no better than the declamation, it must have been a miserable chop-house affair. Lord WODE HOUSE presided, and in returning thanks to the Meet ing for the honour they had clone him in drinking his health—an honour for which of course he could never be sufficiently grateful, and which had made Friday not merely a Good-Friday, but the very best of all possible Fridays, in short, " the proudest day of his life"— disburthened himself of a lengthy Tory diatribe, having Catholic Emanicipation for its head, and O'CONNELL, ash necessary consequence, for its tail. On these two grievances—especially the latter—his Lordship declaimed in a feeble, whining, melancholy spirit, that has both surprised and disappointed us. We expected, at the very least, that he would have indulged us with a droll burst of passion ; but—no ; nothing of the sort ; instead of making us laugh by its vehemence, his speech has only made us drowsy by its dullness. A redeeming absurdity, however, peeps out towards the close, where, after expressing the de spair he feels for the fortunes of his country, his Lordship lakes comfort from the reflection—that " that able young Nobleman, Lord STANLEY," is still left us. This is rich, and might redeem even a duller speech than Lord \VODEHOUSE'S ; for if there be one states man beyond another who at the present crisis, is utterly without political influence, that one is the heir of the House of Derby. Distrusted by the Tories, shunned by the Whigs, laughed at by the Radicals, he is the very Pariah of St. Stephens. Yet this is the states man who, according to Lord WODEHOUSE, is to raise the fallen fortunes of the empire ! If the Tories really think that such a straw can save them from drowning, they are heartily welcome to it ; we would throw them a dozen such with the greatest pleasure imaginable. Lord WALPOLE followed Lord WOODHOUSE, just as Noodle follows Doodle in the farce. He too la mented the state of his unhappy country ; indulged in a rapturous recollection of his vote against " the tissue of absurdity and impiety contained in Lord J. R us- SELL'S motion ;" and trusted, with modest diffidence, that England would yet be saved from the tyranny of " Popish demagogues," by which we presume he would delicately insinuate that Protestant bodies are again to be roasted by Papist faggots at Smithfield ! This is sad stuff, and only worthy of notice, inasmuch as it proves the desperate shifts to which the Tories are driven for anything like an argument. We forbear making any lengthened comment on Lord STORMONT'S speech, for instead of being ra tional, it was simply metaphorical. 1-li3 Lordship was especially figurative on the subject of Sir It. PEEL'S resignation. " His sun," said he, "rose obscured amidst clouds of faction, envy, and malice, but nothing could be more beautifid than its setting." Now we happened to have had the pleasure of seeing this sun set—it was about six r.m. last Friday three weeks in the House of Commons— , and must confess that we never saw a more yellow, melancholy, bilious orb drop down behind the chimney-tops of Palace-yard in the thick of a November fog. It affected to be sure, a blaze, but that blaze was no more than the last faint flickering of a rushlight. One little convulsive glimmer, and—out it went ! If this be a " beautiful setting," Lord STORMONT must have strange notions of the picturesque. Mr. PRAED was more than usually flippant, and quoted a passage in Shakspeare, the burden of which was to prove that Lord JOHN RUSSELL was an ass. It is a thousand pities that the Honourable and Learned Gentleman did not bethink him of his own ears, before he ventured to institute a comparison like this. The taunt comes from him with peculiar infelicity, seeing that his own repeated brays in the House of Commons, have been to the full as genuine as those of any animal that ever chewed the thistle. We should apologise to our readers for the space we have devoted to this Norfolk Conservative Associa tion, for it is as signal a failure as any in the re cords of Toryism. The Members may get up one dinner ; but we doubt much whether they will ever get up a second. Throughout the night the spirits of the company seem to have been in the lowest state of depression. They had not the heart to joke ; they had not the pluck to be ferocious. Far different was the character of the Reform Meeting which took place last week in another part of the county. There, all was cheerfulness and confidence ; and there too, as in Devonshire, was raised that call for the Ballot which no Government will henceforth have power to silence. We have received the whole of the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The Court of Peers did not sit on Friday, in order that the Government might have time to deliberate upon the safest course that could be conveniently adopted to silence the refractory prisoners. The KING was the first appealed to ; but his Majesty, finding that the Peers are now so deeply implicated in theseldisgraccful proceedings, that they cannot with draw themselves without compromising their dignity, very graciously permitted them to use their own discretion in an affair which most properly belong ed to them. The Peers of course expressed them selves highly gratified by thili gracious intimation ; but there was no difficulty in perceiving, from the tone of their deliberations immediately afterwards, that the Royal courtesy, on this occasion, was gall and worm wood to their Lordships. They begin now to eee the DAY AT ONE O'COLCIC. New 5 per Ceut India Stoe' - 259!4 'Ditto Bonds l2 13_ lu!pm. South Sca Stock 10 3 34 Old Annuities New Ditto 3 per Cent. Annuities, 1151— Exch.

They are now, for the first time, aware that they have been summoned from their ancestral halls to bedizen with the ornaments of justice an act of cruel oppression ; and that in the event of their being overpowered by the people, his most Christian Majesty would be the first to wash his hands of all participation in their judicial proceedings. The knowledge of their danger, has, however, no other effect on them than to render them desperate. A large body of them agreed forthwith, that in the event of the prisoners continuing to disturb the Court in the discharge of its judicial functions, the accused, so offending, should be conveyed to prison, and their trials take place in their absence, in the same manner as if they were present. Count MOLE, the Duke de CAZES, and several other highly influential members of the Chamber of Peers, protested against so uncon stitutional a proceeding, and even threatened that if such a proposition were assented to, they would at once quit the Court. The Procureur-General, M. MAR TI N (du Nord) had the effrontery to cite the course adopt edby the National Convention in the trial of Danton and Desmoulins, who were condemned to the guillotine in their absence, as a precedent which ought to be fol lowed on the present occasion. The President of the Chamber, Baron PASQUIER, dissented from the doc trine laid down by the Procureur-General. M. PER SIL, the Minister of Justice, thoug!at the prece dent a good one, but failed in his endeavours to make the Court adopt it. On Saturday the Court suffered such interruption from the prisoners of Paris, that it was obliged to re mand them to their dungeons. The reading of the accusation was then proceeded with, and will continue to occupy the Court for at least three more sit tings. How the Peers, who protest against the trial of the prisoners in their absence, can reconcile to themselves a tacit consent to the reading of the accu sation in the absence of the accused—and which forms a material part of the trial—is beyond our compre hension. Has the Court changed its opinion respect ing the precedent cited by the Procureur-General ? Has it come to the conclusion that it is safer to imitate the conduct of the Government of the Reign of Terror, than to allow a body of men about to be tried for their lives, to choose their own counsel ? Are there no fears entertained that the slumber of France may at last be broken by such crying acts of injustice as'are now in the course of perpetration ? What !—con derrin men to death, in their absence, because they insist on being defended according to the express con stitutional laws of their country ? This is horrible. Far better dispense altogether with the mockery of a trial, than thus tarnish the sacred robes of justice. If the Peers are resolved to proceed with these disgraceful persecutions of comparatively innocent men, let them at once condemn them to death. The act will be less cruel, and as far as they are concerned, the consequences will be precisely the same as if they arrived at such a conclusion by a much more tedious pro cess. They have gone as far as they will be suffered to go with impunity. The condemnation of the pri soners in their absence, must be regarded in the light of a judicial murder. There is no disguising this fact ; nor will all the power of the KING be able to defend them from the punishment which a justly incensed people will visit upon them, should they be weak and wicked enough to listen to the suggestions of M. PERSIL. Of the safety of the Sovereign, in the event of another revolution, we shall say very little. No man understands better than does Limis PIIILLIPE himself, how much lie merits from the people of France ; and no man has had more opportunities of observing the exact way in which his countrymen have latterly discharged all such obligations. Extracts from the Messager, bringing the latest in telligence from Bayonne, will be found in another column. The insurrection in the north is not likely to be crushed by VA LDEZ, unless the army under his command receive speedy reinforcements from the ca pital. The report of his having suffered a defcatin an engagement with ZUMALACA RREGUI is repeated in the French journals, but most of them doubt that he sustained any considerable loss.

The Three per Cents. are 82f. 10c. to 15c., flat. The Spanish funds are also lower. There is a decree in town from Don Carlos,' signed at the " Royal Palace of Ornato," and dated the 20th of April, in which he declares that he considers as null and void all titles of Spanish debt which have been converted by the decrees of the present Government, and that he will acknowledge them as debts of Spain, if they exist in the same form as they were at the time of the death of his brother Ferdinand VII. He promises a speCial protection to the Royal Loan, and declares void the new loan of the Christinos. He orders this decree of his to be everywhere circulated, so that on his installation in Madrid nobody may pretend ignorance thereof.

PARIS, MAY 9.—The Journals of the South bring to-day the confirmation of the defeat of Iriarte at Guernica. The accounts published by the Sentinelle, the Memorial des Pyre nees, and the Election, differ but little from that of our corre spondent. This is the only recent affair spoken of in the letters from the South. As for the check suffered* by Valdez, it was at the passage of St. Fanote that his rear-guard, commanded by Cordova, sustained the greatest loss. Severals. more seriously wounded than Cordova, was conveyed with the other wounded to Logrono, for no other reason than that they could be better attended to than at Estella. Valdez has had an order published at Navarre, that his troops shall not sing the Tragala, nor cry the Constitution for ever 1 He exhorts them to be humane to the inhabitants, not to insult them by word or deed, under fear of being punished. He orders them not t o p u t t o d ea th p ersons w h o may be met with on the by-roads, even though suspected, unless they haver fire-arms. The delay granted by Valdez in his proclamation expired on the 3d of this month. The Election says, that on the 30th Valdez occupied Leon with his columns, and that on the Ist Zumalacarregui went to Irurzun. The Sentinelle adds, that the 5,7, 8, and 9th Carlist Bat talions, and the factious Otamendi, &c., left the Aranazon on the 2d instant, and proceeded towards Labayen, doubt less to support Zumalacarreguy in his attack on the Fort of Irurgan, and that Valdez is also advancing towards the same point. The Sentinelle says further, that on the 29th Zuma lacarreguy reviewed 12,000 infantry and 400 cavalry on the road of Escoriaga, between that village and Mendragon. Let ters from Burgos say, that the head quarters of the army of reserve, are definitely fixed at Briviesca. Thelndicateur says, that the intervention of France is con sidered as more and more probable. Letters from the fron tiers affirm, that Valdez himself had written to the Chambers —that setting aside all national pride, it was absolutely ne cessary to call on France and England to take a more active part in a struggle which threatens to be endless. Of course news so important requires confirmation. —Messager, April 9. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. DEPARTURES. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Monck, from Sir M. W.

CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) The Lords Commissioners of the Great Seal, the Master of the Rolls, and Mr. Justice Bosanquet sat in this Court, and took motions to-day. Their Lordships were occupied the greater part of the morning with a part-heard motion of Mil lard v. Atkins, which was not concluded when our reporter left. VICE-CHANCERY-(THIS DAY). TICKNER V. HINDMARSH, TRUE SUN. Mr. SIDEROTTOM, at the sitting of the Court, said—Will your Honour permit me to take an order in the cause of Tick nor v. Hindmarsh, which admits of no delay, for confirming the Master's report, ,approving of the sale of certain news papers (The True and "Yee* True Sun.) Mr. R. PARKER appeared, and consented to the application. His Homoua made the order as asked. The Court then proceeded with the part-heard cause of White v. Wakefield. KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) CODY V. WILSON. Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case, which had been argued last term. It was an action of trespass, which had been brought for the purpose of trying the validity of a sewer rate, imposed upon the plaintiff as occupier of the Audit office, in the eastern wing of Somerset-house. The plaintiff contended that the rate could not be imposed upon him per sonally, and a case had been agreed upon and submitted for the decision of the Court, in which the occupation of the plaintiff was inferred. The Act 52d, Geo. 111., gives the commissioners a power to rate those as occupiers who are in possession, and therefore there was no necessity for giving an opinion upon that point. It appeared that under Somerset house there were drains and sewers originally made by the Board of Works, and which still continue under their manage ment and control, at the public expense. The eastern wing communicates with them, and there is also a common sewer running through the square, which was made, and is repaired by the Commissioners of Sewers for Westminster, but the eastern wing sewers do not communicate with it, nor do not derive any benefit from it. Numerous cases had been cited, but the doctrine laid down in them is uniform and indisputable, viz., that every one whose property is berefitted by the works of the Commissioners may be assessed for the rates they im pose—the benefit need not be immediate ; or it may be so small that a Jury would not have found the fact stated in the case ; but nevertheless the kind of benefit may be of high value, as where a house is surrounded by marshes,' and by the drains and sewers in the neighbourhood the ground is ren dered firm. As . the jurisdiction of the Commissioners results from the fact of benefit being derived, and as the case ex pressly states that some benefit is derived from these sewers, we are of opinion that the Commissioners had authority to levy the rate, and consequently our judgment must be for the defendants.' DOE DEM. LUMLEY V. THE EARL OF SCARBOROUGH. Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case, which had been argued in Michaelmas term. There had been a special ver dict, and four distinct questions had been raised for the deci sion of the Court. The Learned Judge entered at conside rable length into the facts of the case, which turned upon the construction of the will of Sir G. Saville, and involved the title to a considerable property. From a consideration of all the circumstances, the Court was of opinion that the lessor of the plaintiff was entitled to recover, and therefore the judge ment of the Court below must be reversed. THE KING V. THE LORD OF THE MANOR OF CHELTENHAM. Mr. JARDIN appeared to show cause against a Rule obtained by Mr. Watson in this case. It was a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue to the Lord of the Manor and Stewards of Cheltenham, commanding them to summon a hommage, and assign one-third of the property of the late John Riddle to his widow, Rose Riddle, as her dower. The application was founded upon a private Act Ist of Charles 1., which provided that the wives of copyholders shall be entitled to one-third of their husband's property as their dower, and that such portion shall be assigned by the hommage when the death of the husband shall be presented. The defendants did not dispute the dower ; but if the present Rule was made ab solute it would involve them in endless litigation. The an swers of the hommage to the application were—first, that on one portion of the property the person in possession had refused to allow them to enter and set out ; and secondly, that several tene ments had been built upon another portion of the property after it had been sold by the late John Riddle for valuable conside ration. The proper remedy for the applicant was by plaint, in the nature of a writ of Dower, in the Lords Court, and then the Court of King's Bench could enforce the judgment by mandate directed to the Lord of the Manor. On these grounds he contended that the rule should be discharged.. Mr. F. POLLOCK followed on the same side. He appeared for the tenants. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, and Mr. WATSON were heard in support of the rule. The COURT was of opinion that the hommage having re fused to assign and set out the dower, for certain reasons, all those reasons should he set out in their answer. As they had not done so, the Court was of opinion that the rule for the mandamus should be made absolute. EXTRAORDINARY DISPATCH. The London and New York American Line of Packet Ship, President, Captain George Moore, arrived at Ports mouth from New York on Saturday night the 9th inst. in 19 days, the ship having performed the voyage from Portsmouth to New York, and back to Portsmouth, with full cargoes, laying at New York thirteen days, in the very short period of fifty-five days.

United States Bank Shar e s THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. ( From the Jamaica papers of March 30.) " The Windward Island papers contain little of interest. The Guiana Chronicle of the 6th March declares that crime is frightfully increasing in that colony, owing to the leniency of the stipendary magistrates, and the non-interference of the Executive." The monthly returns of the liabilities and assets of the Bank of England, in the average of three months, to the sth of May inclusive, has excited some attention in the monetary circles in the city. It appears that the Bank has not the power of in creasing their stock bullion, and the returns prove that the amount of circulation hhs diminished when compared with the April return, in the sum of 49,0001., and the deposits in the sum of 563,000/. ; the Securities have decreased to 464,000/., and the stock of bullion decreased 122,0001. Both the British and Foreign markets left off on Saturday heavy. Consols closed at 92+ for the Account ; opened this morning at 921 8. Exchequer Bill: 30 ; India Bonds 11 13 ; India Stock 216 ; Bank 215} 216. In the Foreign market great agitation prevailed on Satur day, which caused a kind of panic, by the information received from the North of Spain. The following are the opening prices of this morning :—Spanish Bonds 694; Scrip bk prem. ; Portuguese 1011 ; Columbian 47k ; Mexican 471 ; Dutch 2+ per Cents, 531 ; 5 per Cents, 1021 The Seagull, from Vera Cruz, brings a freight of 250,000 dollars. All was quiet in Mexico. _ _ _ _ Accounts from Ilavannah state that there has been a consi derable advance in sugar, owing to the backwardness of the crops. HALF-PAST ONE. The Consol market continues steady, and Consols may be quoted at 924 buyers for the Account, with little doing, as the chief attention is towards the Foreign market, it being settling day in the Spanish Passive and Deferred Securities, which conversions amount to near two millions sterling. It has also caused continual fluctuations in the Spanish Bonds during the morning. At present the market is heavily inclined at the following prices :—Brazilian, 84 1 5 ; Chilian, 52k 3k ; Co lombian, 461 4 ; Spanish Bonds, 68k ; Spanish Scrip, 8} .1 ; Mexican, 464 Exchequer Bills, 27 ; India Bonds, 10 pm ; India Stock, 9504. ; Bank Stock, 216+. We have late accounts from the Brazils, and they are not of a favourable nature. Brazil Stock has fallen 2 per Cent. THREE O'CLOCK Co'sole for tie Account, Pe. Lord John Russell transacted business at the Home Office on Saturday morning. Notwithstanding the reports which have been so industriously circulated relating to the Noble Lord's indisposition, we are happy to state that his Lord ship appears in most excellent health and spirits. DEVON.—The Protestant feeling in Devon is stronger than in any other county in England, and the most extraordinary and combined efforts had been made to arouse that feeling, by sounding the alarm in all quarters. Every town, village, and hamlet, in South Devon, was inundated with placards against Popery and O'Connell. Orators every where appealed to the passions of the people, and awakened their fears. Pulpits were freely used for the same purpose. Sir Thomas Acland lent the whole weight of his talents and character to the cry, and denounced the projects of Lord John Russell as tending to introduce Popery upon the ruins of Pro. testantism.—Devonport Telegraph. TAXES ON KNOWLEDGE.—A public meeting is announced to be holden this (Monday) evening, at the Me chanics' Hall of Science, Commercial-place, City-road, for the purpose of petitioning Parliament to repeal the whole of the duties that impede the free circulation of knowledge, Win. Williams, Esq. M. P. for Coventry, has promised to take the chair. Several other Members of Parliament are expected to attend and take part in the proceedings. REPRESENTATION OF GLASGOW.—Thursday, on the arrival of the news that there was no chance of Lord John Russell's success in North Devon, it was pretty current l y whispered among the Liberals on the Exchange, that Mr. Dunlop might, with honour to himself an d a d vantage to th e community, relinquish his seat for Glasgow in his Lordship's favour. We have not the slightest wish that Mr. Dunlop should retire from our . representati on --- a more honest and in dependent Representative does not occupy a seat in the coun cil of the nation ; but if his health really renders him unable to go through the fatigues of a Parliamentary life, we do not know, and we cannot concei ve , a more f avoura bl e opportunity than what i s now offered for his making way for the leader of the House of Commons, and one of the Ministers of the Crown. We have long wished to see, at least one of the Members for Glasgow—the commercial metropolis of Scotland—a Member of the Administration ; a better or an abler Minister than Lord John Russell could not represent us.—Scots Times. THE CHURCH IS IN DANGER! When Hannah More established her benevolent schemes for civilising the poor in the ten parishes around her, in of which was a resident clergyman, she was assailed by the Clerical and Lay Conservatives of the day as an exciter of se7 dition and abetter of Popery, and her exertions were for time paralysed by the cry of " THE CHURCH IS IN DANGER r When the British and Foreign School Societies were founded for general education, without reference to sect or party, they were vehemently opposed by these same Cons*. vatives ; for, said they, "THE CHURCH IS IN DANGER!" t he When Bible Societies commenced their operations, for t not one purpose 'of disseminating truth, without respect again did Conservative high Churchmen raise their voices, ae ;d call upon the orthodox and loyal to denounce them far) said they, CHURCH IS IN DANGER !" s And now, once more, when projects are in agitation wibr_t view to the extension of education, by which it is hoped bat those who have hitherto been kept asunder may, by conciliatioto and the exercise of a Christian spirit, be brought nigh T i es each other, more loudly than ever do our ConservB assure us that THE .
