Whereas by an act passed in the session of the eleventh and twelfth years of her present Majesty's reign, intituled "An Act to prevent until the Ist day of September, 1850, owd to tho and of the thou alani-etreaiora 4.fteliwaraart, tuo spreading of contagious or infectious disorders among sheep, cattle, and other animals," and which has since been from time to time continued by divers subsequent acts, it is (amongst other things) enacted that it shall be lawful for the Lords and others of her Majesty's Privy Council, or any two or more of them from time to time to mako such orders and regulations as to them may seem necessary, for the purpose of prohibiting or regulating the removal to or from such parts or places as they may de signate in such order or orders, of sheep, cattle, horses, swine, or other animals, or of meat, skins, hides, horns, hoofs, or other part of any animals, or of hay, straw, fodder, or other articles likely to propagate infection ; and also for the purpose of purifying any yard, stable, outhouse, or other place, or any waggons, carts, carriages, or other vehicles ; and also for the purpose of directing how any animals dying in a diseased state, or any animals, parts of animals, or other things seized under the provisions of this act, are to be disposed of ; and also for the purpose of causing notices to be given of the appearance of any dis order among sheep, cattle, or other animals, and to make any other orders or regulations for the purpose of giVing effect to the provisions of the said act, and again to revoke, alter, or vary any such orders or regulations ; and that all provisions for any of the purposes aforesaid in any such order or orders contained shall have the like force and effect as if the same had been inserted in the said act ; and that all persons offending against the said act shall for each and every offence forfeit and pay any sum not exceeding £2O, or such smaller sum as the said Lords or others of her Majesty's Privy Council may in any such case by such order direct. And whereas a contagious or infectious disorder, of which the nature is at present uncertain, has lately appeared, and now prevails among cattle within the metropolis and in the neighbourhood thereof, and it is expedient to take measures for preventing such disorders from spreading, Now, therefore, the Lords of her Majesty's Privy Council do hereby, by virtue and in exercise of the powers given by the said recited act, and by the several acts continuing the same aforesaid, order as follows :- 1. If at the date of the publication of this order in the "London Gazette," there shall be any cow, heifer, bull, bullock, or ox labouring under any contagious or infectious disorder in the possession or custody of any cowkeeper, dairyman, or dairywoman, or of any milkman or milk woman, or vendor or purveyor of milk, or of any dealer in cattle whatsoever within till,. City of London or within the limits of the metropolitan police district, or if at any time hereafter, while this present order shall continue in force and unrevoked, any cow, heifer, bull, bullock, or ox, being in the possession or custody of any such person as afore said within the said City of London or within the metro politan police district shall be seized or attacked with, or be found labouring or suffering under, any such contagious or infectious disorder, notice of the existence of such dis order, or of the first appearance of such disorder in or among the cattle belonging to or in custody of any such person as aforesaid, shall immediately thereupon be given by the person in whose possession or custody such diseased animals or animal shall be, to the clerk of her Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council in waiting at the office of her Maesty's Privy Council at Whitehall, in the county of Middlesex; and it shall be lawful for the said clerk of her Majesty's Privy Council, and for all such persons as shall by writing under his hand authorise in that behalf thereupon, and at all reasonable times thereafter, to in spect or examine all or any such diseased animals or ani mal, and to report to the Lords of her Majesty's Privy Council all such information and particulars as to the na ture or character of such disorder as may seem to him ex pedient for the purpose of enabling proper regulations to be made for preventing or checking the further propaga tion and increase of such disorder. Every-person offending against this order, and omit ting to give such notice or to permit such inspection and examination as aforesaid, shall for every such offence for feit any sum not exceeding twenty pounds, which the jus tices before whom lie or she shall bo convicted of 'such offence may think it to impose.

Benjamin Taylor and Kenry Kelley were yesterday again placed at the bar of tho Mansion-house, in custody of Ser geant Webb, of the detective force, to undergo a further examination upon the charge of having conspired together to obtain from the Birmingham Banking Company largo sums of money by moans of forged bills of exchange. Mr. Lewis, jun., instructed by Mr. J. A. Beaumont, of Birmingham, the solicitor to the company, appearedto pro secute. Mr. Beard appeared for Taylor, and Mr. William Cook, of New Broad-street, appeared for Kelley. Tho prisoners, it will bo remembered, were both appre hended on Saturday last by Detective Sergeant Webb, who had been looking for them for some time, and underwent a preliminary examination on that day before the Lord Mayor, when no evidence was taken. From the statement of Mr. Lewis, sen., it appeared that Taylor carried on the business of a boot-upper manufacturer at Birmingham, and that he had opened an account with the Birmingham Banking Company, and had paid into his account a largo number of bills, which ho said were trade bills, were discounted and passed to his credit, and which afterwards turned out to be forgeries, and perfectly worthless. The bills purported to be drawn upon and accepted by parties in London, and yesterday, Mr. Lewis, jun., said ho should show them that it was the prisoner Kelley who forwarded them to Taylor, who then introduced them to the bank. Three of the bills purported to be accepted by Hamil ton and Co., of 4, Fitzroy-street, Fitzroy-square, and he should show that although a person of the name of Hamil ton did formerly occupy an office thorn, he had left in De cember, 1864, and from that time until April no one but Kelley had occupied that office. There were some of the bills accepted by Benjamin Ross, and these bills were ac cepted by Kelley himself, who took a shop and carried on business in .the name of B. Ross and Co. There was ono bill of rather a peculiar character, accepted by 3. Hawes and Co., merchants, Philpot-lane. This bill, which was for £7l 3s. 6d., was purchased by Kelley from Harvey for £3 ICs. There were other bills, some accepted N. F. Brewer, Pancras-lane, and he was in a position to show that a person named Brewer took offices in Pancras lane some time back, but since he had engaged them he had never made his appearance. To show further that the prisoners were connected in the transaction, he stated that Taylor had taken offices in Langbourn-chambers, Fen church-street, at a rental of £l3O a-year, and the name of Reeves and Co. was placed on the door. Taylor intro duced Kelley as Mr. Reeves, and said he would manage the business whilst he was in Birmingham, as he himself would not be there very much. While there it appeared from the letter-book, which was taken possession of by Webb, that they had done little else in the office than write let ters to different firms in the country, giving references to Taylor and Co., and in Kelley's pocket wore found several letters addressed to Taylor, from different firms, asking for a reference for Reeves and Co. Thomas Francis Shaw was then called, and said he was the sub-manager of the Birmingham Banking Company, carrying on business at Bennett's-hill, Birmingham. In the month of March last, shortly before the latter end of the month, the prisoner .Taylor called at the bank. Ho had known him before as a tradesman in the town. Ho asked the terms for conducting banking business and amount of commission. He asked the prisoner the nature of his account and about the amount of his transactions in the year, whether he paid bills into his credit, and whether he would require to draw against them. The prisoner said he should require to draw against his bills, which would be bills that he would receive in the ordinary course of his trade. He said the amount of his floating balance would be about£4,oooor£s,ooo. He sent the prisoner to the manager, the transaction being rather large. Subsequently an ac count was opened with the prisoner. Between the Gth and 26th of April he received from Taylor the eleven credit papers produced, on which were written the amounts and particulars of the bills specified on them. The amounts of the bills specified on these papers were placed to the credit of Taylor without any deduction for discounting. The bills produced (17 in number) were the same as those referred to in those credit notes. Thero were 36 bills mentioned in the notes. Those produced had been dis honoured ; the rest were still running. Taylor drew against the money placed to his credit, and ho produced his cheques, which had been duly honoured. The bills that have been dishonoured amount to about £2,000, exclusive of the bills still running. The amount obtained was about £3,000. At the time he was discounting those bills ho had no knowledge or idea that the bills were not good trade bills. In consequence of some suspicion he had he wrote to the prisoner Taylor on the 26th April, informing him that from the inquiries that bad been made as to the class of paper sent by him, it had been found so unsatisfac tory that he declined to take any more. He received a let ter from Taylor stating his regret that any of the bills were doubtful, and said that the amount was rather larger than he had anticipated, in consequence of his having sold seve ral large parcels to some new customers, and he (witness) would mention the names of those which were doubtful, he could close his account with them. He again wrote to Taylor, and received another letter, in which he said he would call and would no,doubt make it all right with the bank. Cross-examined by Mr. Beard—He had received 86 bills from the prisoner Taylor, of which 11 were still running. He did not know how many had been paid. He thought the amount did not exceed more than £2OO or £3OO. Cross-examined by Mr. Cook—He never saw lielley in reference to any of the bills. William Foster, clerk to Mr. Beaumont, solicitor to the Birmingham Banking Company said he had seen Taylor write andknew- his handwriting. The 11 credit notes pro duced he believed were in Taylor's writing. The two letters which had been produced were also in Taylor's writing, and likewise the endorsements,. "Benjamin Taylor," to the bills produced. The draughting of the three bills purport ing to be drawn on and accepted by Hamilton and Co., he believed to be also in Taylor's writing. Henry William Ward said ho was a wine merchant at 36, Seething-lane, and had been there 13 years. He kept an account at. Messrs. Prescott and Co.'s. He knew neither of the prisoners. ' The bill fur £289 Bs. Od. purporting to be accepted by H. W. Ward was not accepted by him nor by his authority, nor was the one for £134. The bills purported to be drawn by a person named Mardlin. He knew no one of that name. Cross• examined by Mr. Beard—He did not recognise the handwriting of either of these acceptances. H© had a son, who was not in any business, who lived at home with him, but had been away several weeks. He did not know where he was. -He was not in the habit of using witness's office. He did tell him ho Was going away, but not where he was going. He did not think the acceptance was in his son's writing. It was an imitation, but his opinion was that it was not his. His son was sued on a bill and had left. His son's initials were the same as his. By Mr. Lewis—lf the wrifing were his son's, it was without his authority. Frederick Wack, 14, Fitzroy-street, Fitzroy-square, said his father occupied the house until three weeks ago, when ho died. He remembered at the commencement a person named Hamilton taking an office in that house, and he loft the office about December in the same year. He called him self a wine merchant, and paid £2 10s. a month rent, but did not pay it all. After he left the prisoner Kelley took the office at the same rental. He did not know what business ho carried on. He occupied the office about six months. The agreement wassignod, " Collins, Kelley, and Son," but the name was not on the door. Between December and April no other parties occupied the offices, and there was no person of the name of Hamilton there. Cross-examined by Mr. Cook.—He never saw Hamilton there after Kelley went. He cnly saw Hamilton twice. _ Mick Parker Champion said he was a china and glass merchant of 2, Pancras-lane. Ho let a portion of the house as offices. In January, 1865, t person named Brewer took an office there. After taking the offices witness saw him there once, and that was all. No business whatever was carried on there. He had never given him notice to quit. Letters had come for Mr. Brower having the stamp of the Birmingham Banking Compaay, and of Mr. Beaumont, the solicitor. He saw Brewer write his signature to the agreement, and two of the three bills produced, purporting to be accepted, " W. F. Brewer," he believed to be in his handwriting. The deed was accepted, "W. F. Brewer, Oxford-street," but the signature was dis similar. Brewer gave him a raferenco to Burgess and Co., of Oxford-street. Mr. Lewis—l will show Burgess was Kelley. • Witness, in continuation, said he did notrecolleet having seen Kelley before. Alfred Davis said ho' was managing clerk to Mr. 3. S. Scott, 64, Langbourne-chambers, Fenchurch-street. Mr. Scott has property which he lets out. He knew the pri soners. He knew Kelley as Mr. Reeves, and Taylor in the name he had given. Taylor in. May last took chambers at No. 36, Langbourne Chambers, at £l3O a year, and signed the agreement-he produced. After he had taken the office the name of Frederick Reeves and Co. was painted up. Three or four weeks afterwards Taylor took Kelley to the office, and introduced him as Mr. Reeves, and said he would • carry on his (Taylor's) business while ho was in Birmingham, and he himself would be very seldom there. Kelley after that went to the office every day.. There were two clerks in the offiee, but he know nothing of what was being done until Sergeant Webb went there. Mr. Lewis produced a prospectus, which he said would show how companies were got up. A number of them were found upon the prisoner Taylor when he was apprehended. It was headed "B. Taylor and Company (Limited)." The capital was stated at £lOO,OOO in 10,000 shares of £lO each, and was for the alleged purpose of purchasing and conduct ing on an extended scale the well-known and rapidly-in creasing business of Benjamin Taylor, of Campden-street, Birmingham, machine-closed upper and legging manufac turer; and the vendor guaranteed a minimum dividend of oati-vcr cent,--k4 the flat tirr66 - S7 : garS, and Benjamin was named as manager. The prisoners were again remanded. Richard Bentley, New Burlington-street. CHEAP EDlTlON—Frontispiece Vignette Title-page, 0.., PAID IN FULL. A NOVEL. By H. J. BYRON.

The Cattle Plague• A meeting of cattle-dealers and importers was held yesterday at the Salutation, Newgate-street, to take into consideration the nature and causes of the prevailing disease amongst cattle, and to adopt such measures thereon as might be deemed expedient. Mr. C. Hicks was called to the chair. The meeting was attended by all the principal cattle-dealers and importers in the trade. The CHAIRMAN, having stated the object of the meeting, said there could be no question as to the existence of the diseas e , but he denied that it was of foreign importation. He then proceeded to combat the professional statements lat had been made as to its being brought over to this country by the cattle importers. lie contended ,that it was a local disease, originating in cow-sheds; and it was the bringing diseased cows into the markets for sale by their owners that had occasioned its spreading to the extent it had. He thought that the disease might be confi ne d w i t hi n much narrower limits if an embargo was laid upon all the cow-sheds where the disease was known to exist. Mr. GIBHARDT, as a large importer of foreign cattle, held the same view as the chairman. None of the cattle he imported had shown any symptom of the disease. Mr. PooL said it had been stated that the disease had been brought into this country by a drove of cattle imported into Hull from Revel on the 29th May last ; and it was also stated, of which there was no doubt, that the disease was contagious. Now, it was a singular fact that the steamer which brought over those cattle on the 29th May had been constantly engaged since in bringing over cattle, but no symptom of disease had appeared on the cattle so brought over. (Hear.) Again, several beasts had been seized and condemned in Islington market as suffering from the disease, but it was a singular fact that none of the cattle so condemned were cattle of foreign importation. (Hear.) They were all home stock. Mr. HUNT said he was the importer of the cattle which arrived in Hull on the 29th May, and he was prepared to prove that, though in poor condition, not one beast was suffering from any disease what ever. He was further prepared to prove that no disease existed in the place from which those cattle were brought. (Hear.) Several other speakers also held the same views. At the same time they were willing to co-operate in any measure to prevent the spread of the disease. Ultimately a committee VT2S appointed to collect information as to the real nature of the disease, and as to whether it was of local or foreign growth, and also to prepare a memorial to the Board of Trade setting forth the views of the meeting. A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the pro ceedings. The meeting convened by the Lord Mayor of Dublin to consider the best means of averting the cattle disease from this country was held on Thurs day in the Mansion-house, and was very numerously attended by landed proprietors a n d stoc k masters. The Lord Mayor presided. Mr. BOLTON MASSEY moved the first resolution, to the effect that the most effectual means should be adopted to prevent the cattle disease being intro duced into this country, and that an application be made to the Government to obtain an Order in Council prohibiting the importation of cattle from all parts into this country. lie briefly urged on the meeting the absolute necessity of taking immediate steps to avert the introduction of such plague, which, if it came at all, would ruin the country. The resolution was seconded by Sir EDWARD KENNEDY. Mr. JOHN POPE HENNESSY spoke in support of the resolution. He considered the meeting a prac tical one, on a subject of the greatest importance. If the cattle disease came to Ireland with the same effect as it had visited England and other countries one of the severest blows • to the prosperity of the country would be given. - The total value of horned stock in this country, he said,was over £20,000,000. stock exported was over £6,000,000, showing a considerable value in our cattle over our corn trade. He hoped that Ireland would, at some future time, lay claim to be a manufacturing', country ; but at present she was solely an agricultural country, and, therefore, great precautions should be taken to pro tect her from this plague. In a committee of the House of Commons, appointed to investigate into contagious disease in cattle, he remembered one curious fact. It was stated that by the introduction of one diseased bullock into France 27,000 head of cattle died of the disease. He therefore urged the necessity of putting an end altogether to the im portation of cattle either from England, Scotland, Spain, or any other country into Ireland, and by vigilantly adopting such means he felt sure that the plague would not enter the country. Mr. M'CULLAGH (a large importer of Spanish cattle) thought it would be unwise to prohibit the importation of all stock into Ireland. In support of his argument he read an extract of a resolution passed at a meeting over which Professor Gamgee presided. He urged that Spanish cattle were not so subject to disease as other cattle, and moved as an amendment that the words " all countries in fected with the disease" be introduced into the re solution; . A long discussion ensued, which resulted in Mr. M'Cullagh withdrawing his amendment. The original resolution was then passed, and a committee appointed to take measures to have it carried into effect. Conservative Festival in North Warwick. shire. BIRMINGHAM, Friday. The Conservative party in this locality celebrated the recent elections of Messrs. Newdegate and Bromley by entertaining those gentlemen at a public dinner in this town last 'evening. This took place in the Exchange Assembly-room, where about 150 gentlemen sat down, under the presidency of the Right Hon. C. B. Adderley, M.P. The customary toasts having been drunk, The CHAIRMAN said—Gentlemen, I now come to that which may be fairly called " the toast of the evening." I propose " The Health of Mr. Newde gate and Mr. Bromley." We are met, gentlemen, for this very - purpose—to congratulate these two gentlemen on being returned again to the seats which they have already occupied so well, and to congratulate ourselves also upon having secured those two seats in their persons. We were not pre pared to take another in the room of either of them at the dictation of the Birmingham Liberal Asso ciation, who have shown us what they would do by attempting here to control the freedom of individual electors. Why, gentlemen, is it not clear that those Liberals do not really want extension of the franchise, but extension of the representa tion of themselves—just as Mr. Bright does not hate the aristocracy, but wishes to be an aristocrat himself. (Laughter and applause.) Why, gentle men, this is only human nature. Let us consider for one moment, setting aside, as we have in a marked way, that dictation, what we promise our selves, on the other hand, in having retained our old representatives. (Hear, hear.) I flatter myself that we promise ourselves this—that we shall continue to be represented in Parliament as main tainers of the freest and first of constitutions the world has ever known, of - which I was told that the King of Italy said to a private friend the other day. " I wish I could get rid even of this triste metier d'e'tre roi," as he called it, " that I could only go to England and live under the only Consti tution fit to live under,"---that we hope to be reire ' seated as maintainers of this Constitution, ready to correct its abuses as occasion heeds, in opposition to the ruthless empire of quackery and change. (Hear, hear, applause, and cheers.) We are told by the Liberal party that every good gift and perfect gift have come from them, and that everything good in future must also come from them. Now, this seems to me to be certainly most liberal assumption. But yet, at the same time, I will confess that I see very considerable foundation for it. The Cabinet which represents the Liberals at this moment con tains within itself the representatives of every prin ciple of politics in the country. There are some who appeared as Liberals in the late contested election, both as Liberal electors and Liberal candidates, and had been returned as Liberal members, a great number of whom wished to be represented by that section of the Cabinet which is illustrated by the high Toryism of Lord Palmerston, who in one of the Reform debates in the House of Commons let slip this Liberal sentiment ;—" I don't mean that every fellow you meet in the streets should have the fran chise." (Hear, hear.) And that is the man who rejected Lord Derby's Reform Bill, ousted Lord Derby's Ministry upon that very subject, preferring, as the sequel has shown, preferring greatly in his own mind, the perpetual ventilation of the question to any definite legislation on so delicate a subject. (Hear, hear, and applause.) Why, gentlemen, these are not mere theories. I read the papers to-day, and I find my opponents in North Stafford shire had a meeting two days ago. They ejected my late colleague on the ground that he was not ready for a Reform Bill ; but no sooner did they meet together—two Mr. Basses, Mr. Buller, and two others—at Stoke the other day than they came to discuss this very question, and they came to the conclusion that a £6 franchise would be the ruin of the country, and Mr. Bass makes the proposal which the Times heads to-day "A New Reform Bill," which is about the most ridiculous proposition that has ever yet been made on this sub ject in this country—(hear)—that a certain number of boroughs in this country should be selected to give up one-half of their members to the working classes. Why, good heavens, who are the working classes? (No.) And where is the line to be drawn, I should like to know ? Is it to be drawn as a matter of poverty against wealth ? And, if so, where is the man who would have the audacity to propose a Reform Bill which would draw a direct line between poverty and wealth in this country ? Why, any man who did so would be scouted in this country as proposing the most dangerous measure ever proposed, and the one most antagonistic to the principles and institutions of this country. (Applause.) Well, gen tlemen, we hear a great deal of the Liberal ascen dency in this election. Let us have a word or two more about the Liberals. I have heard some of them, and a great proportion of them represent the High Toryism of Lord Palmerston. Well, now, there is another section of the Liberals who have been re turned at this election, and who look to another section of the Cabinet as their representatives. Those are the men who have been taken by the impulsive abstractions of Mr. Gladstone, which may precipi tate anywhere, everywhere, at any time, or any form., and representing the late Sir R. Peel. As to this section of the Liberals, we should be at a loss to know exactly what they were but that Mr. Gladstone has lately given us an epigrammatic definition, and has contrasted his principles with ours, by saying that 'he shows trust in the people tempered by prudence, while we show mistrust of the people, tempered by fear. Why in that very definition he assumes to himself a position outside and above the people. We, as a part of the people, call for the self-admin- ' istration of the country, and only desire that the administration of the great wealth, the great inte rests, and the great influence of this country should not be a mere scramble of numbers without any qualification. There is a third party, which takes another section of the Cabinet as its representative, and who would follow what I may call the devil may-care Milner Gibson, who is an adherent of Mr. Bright's doctrines, without his solitary faith, and who, .I believe, is without any political faith what ever. Then, lastly, there are other Liberals, called Liberals, who are so like ourselves that I do not wonder at there being some difficulty in distinguish ing between them, especially as they would proba bly be found in the same lobby with us. Those who follow the practical wisdom of Mr. Lowe, a spirit emancipated, but hovering still over the party from the back benches like a Nemesis of practical wisdom over the followers of speculative empiricism --a, sort of mirror held up to us from the colonies to reflect to us the fatal consequences of playing tricks with the British Constitution. (Applause.) Mr. Lowe's speech on this very subject has never been answered and never can be. Well, I can only say that it would be hard. if a Cabinet which represented in this manner every shadow of political principle could not at least offer—l will not say perform —any measure underheaven, and could not lay claim to every good measure which has been passed during the last half century. We know that the one sole thing in which all those Liberals were really united was in promising the maintenance of loyalty to their own chief, Lord Palmerston. Why, gentlemen, we have made an offer of Parliamentary Reform, Und if our offer had been accepted seven years ago, it would have included within the franchise of this country all that class of independent artizans who are so eminently illustrated in this town of Birming ham—men of the artizan class, who have sufficient intelligence and sufficient independence to exercise the vote and the rights of citizenship on public grounds—the very worst capital, believe me, for the Liberal Association. Now let me only say that what we are against is anything like theories of ideal per fection in making a House of Commons. Depend upon it that if there is one thing that a practical na tion like this should avoid more than another, it is theories of ideal perfection. Constitutions founded upon theory have always failed, and for this plain reason—that all the wise men together have not the brains in their heads which are contained in the wis dom and experience of ages. Let me think for a moment what has become of the nostrums which have been proposed by the Liberal party during the last 30 years, during which they affect to take credit to themselves for all the good that has happened in this country. Where are the annual Parliaments, where is vote by ballot, where universal suffrage? I can only say this: that if the Conservative party had no other claim to the thanks of the country than having forced reflection till these nostrums and quackeries were seen through and ridiculed, they would on that ground alone have entitled themselves to be called the saviours of the commonwealth. Gentlemen, 1 now answer a question which has lately been put in this town: Is there any difference be tween parties in this country ? And I say yes ; there is a very great and wide difference between that defi nite party by which we stand and that hazy agglo meration of parties which we oppose. We are here now, and I am on my legs at this moment to pro pose with due honours and full enthusiasm the health of those gentlemen who represent our triumph. (Cheers.) We congratulate ourselves on their success, and let us drink in three times three " The health of Messrs. Nowdegate and Bromley." (Cheers.) The toast was very cordially received. Mr. NEWDEGATE on rising to respond was very warmly greeted. He said—l feel a dearth of the words by which I might again without sameness reiterate my thanks for the honour that you have again conferred on me by choosing me as the re presentative of those principles - which have been so ably illustrated by your chairman. (Hear, hear.) He was in 1843 my political godfather ; he proposed me as a:member for North Warwickshire. His god son has passed through several phases. I was as keen a partizan as Mr. Adderley. I was the first officer appointed for the reformation of the Conser vative party, and after its separation from the late Sir Robert Peel in the year 1817 I was elected dis tinctly as dpartizan. After the sevre contest in the year 1,852, I was also elected a partizan, after a sharp contest. (Hear, hear.) I now stand before you as an independent member—(applause)—per haps more strongly attached to the great principles of the English Constitution than any man in the House of Commons. Honoured by your confidence I am determined, as far as within my weak capacity shall be possible, to continue the representation of the great principles on which are founded that Con stitution that combines order with freedom--recog nising this principle that there must be limitation of individual right if the freedom of each man shall be secured. (Cheers.) I speak to you not so much as a partizan. I speak to you as one who recognises that among the Liberal party there is growing up a Conservative party who shall supplement the Con servative party, who in future shall be identified, when occasion arises, with the Conservative party ; but I am one of those who lament that it ever should have been said that Lord Palmerston is as good as any leader of the Conservative party. Would that that had never been believed, and then we should have had a Conser vative party• in this country depending on the great principles of the Constitution, and, instead of leaving us to lament -the losses that have been sustained by the party in several of the coun ties, they would be rejoicing with yourselves over the victory which has been achieved here. The whole constituency of North Warwick consists of 6,710 electors. How many freeholders are there among that number ? 4,662—thus more than two thirds of the constituency are freeholders, in inde pendent possession of their own qualifications. (Hear.) Now, let me not say one word disrespect ful of the tenant farmers : a nobler example of the tenant farmers is not to be found within the limits How if this island than the tenant farmers of North Warwickshire have shown. (Hear, he ar.) if they voted to a man for one candidate, could a seventh command the whole? This is my answer to the imputation that I and my . friend and hon. colleague, as I am proud to call him (cheers), are returned to Parliament by anything but the free and independent will of the i most free and most in dependent constituency n England. (Hear.) Well, then, I must follow our right hon. chairman into the question of reform. He touched upon the matter of the electors of Birmingham and Coventry voting for the county. I rejoice that I represent Birmingham and Coventry. That gives an inde pendent power. In 1847, when associated with Mr. Spooner, I polled a majority in Birmingham. What has happened now ? Birmingham, under certain influences and circumstances adverse to our return, on a recent occasion has polled a large ma jority in favour of a gentleman whose name com mended him to Birmingham as associated with the services of his respected father. (Hear, hear.) But what did Coventry and Nuneaton ? Why, they more than neutralised the majority produced here by the special circumstances of the case, and by attachment to the name of the gentleman whom the Liberal party had been fortunate enough to enlist as their candidate. (Hear.) And I would put this to my right hon. friend : the county members of England represent the majority of the people ; but how small a minority they form in the House of Commons. The other day Mr. Bright was pleased to say that he claimed for Birmingham more representation. I claim more representation for the counties. I have always felt that Ihe question of reform was one on which the Conservatives should seek to show that they had no special party object to serve by defend ing the Whig Radical measure of 1832 ; and I am happy to say that in the course of years the Con servative party having adopted that line the ques tion of reform has been 'brought within the sphere of practical politics, and now, as your chairman has told you, you find Mr. Lowe, you find Mr. Bass, you find Whigs and Radicals prepared to defend i the order of things established n 1832, whereas if you had opposed the second reading of the reform bill you would have had a party cry again, and a charge made in all the excitement and all the revo lutionary fervour which characterised the passing of the first reform bill. Such has been the course of events, and I rejoice at the course that they have taken. I rejoice to see that Conservative opinions --" fra, '4 l are extending beyond the sphe - o f th e Conserva. .41 tive party. After adverting to the law of copy; right, which he thought should he prOtected, and his motion on monastic and conventual establish ments, Mr. Newdegate said, in conclusion—Believe me, there is no politician more sternly determined to defend the independence and the freedom of England than an old Tory like myself. Let me thank you gentlemen, for having renewed my com mission. My hope—nay, my prayer is, that I may be granted life and strength, so that I may not do injustice to your choice. (Cheers.) Mr. BROMLEY, who was most enthusiastically re ceived, said--I can truly say that I sincerely thank you for the unmistakable expressions of your kind feeling towards me as your new member. (Applause.) Gentlemen, I can only ascribe it to the fact that, as my excellent colleague has just remarked, I, as well as himself, was a godson of Mr. Adderley—(cheers) —and lam glad to think that I am. Mr. Newde gate has said that Mr. Adderley was his political godfather ; and I have h a d grea t goo d f ortune to be \ a godson of his also. I am glad of it, because my colleague is a practical proof that Mr. Adderley's godsons live to a good age—livelong. (Applause.) Gentlemen, we have met to celebrate a great Con servative triumph. (Hear.) My colleague here re marked that an expression came from a member of the Liberal Association stating that a seat had been bought. (Oh.) Well, at all events, one likes to have a return for one's money. (Laughter.) After adverting to the incidents of the contest, Mr. Brom ley said—l should wish to say one or two words on Reform. I must say I feel that that is the only real, serious, and important political subject which we have to look forward to. As far - as I can judge by what I have seen and heard the question is likely to exercise a great influence. I have got an extract here —and in speaking oi - th:. queQtion I will to refer to it —from a speech made by Mr. Lowe. I have got the extract here in my pocket, and in reference to this he says that he regards as one of the greatest dangers with which this country can be threatened to take away and divert the property from the classes which at present have it, and place it in the hands of men whose life is a continual struggle for existence. I believe that the great body of the people coincide with that. That is the great belief of the great mass of the people of this country. Any one who thoroughly understands this—any one who thoroughly under.. stands the question of Reform—could not fail to re cognise the decided position of the House of Com mons on the question, that they would not admit any American quack idea to be mixed up with the Eng lish Constitution. (Hear, hear, and applause.) I believe that we shall see in America—if not now, if not in the present generation, at least, possibly, in their generation —we shall see them take refuge in the lesser tyranny of despotism to escape from the grater one—democracy. (Hear, hear.) I have been a good deal of a traveller in my life, and I firmly believe that there is no country in the world that enjoys to such an eminently high degree the same freedom of the subject that we enjoy; and to attempt to alter it or attempt to subvert it would be an act of political immorality such as never was committed. (Applause.) The health of the right hon. chairman having been proposed by Mr. NEWDEGATE and briefly acknow ledged, the company soon afterwards separated. The Queen v, Charlotte Winsor. A very great sensation was:created at Exeter upon its be coming known that a communication had been received by the judges that the execution of Charlotte Winsor, who was convicted the other day at Exeter of having murdered au infant, and was to have been hanged on Wednesday, has been respited until November next. It may be recollected that Winsor, together with Mary Jane Harris, the mother of the child, wore put upon their trial for this offence at the Spring Assizes at Exeter. The judge was Mr. Baron Chan nell. After the case had occupied the Court for two days the jury were locked up, and just before 12 o'clock on Saturday night they were brought into court, and upon be ing asked whether they had agreed upon their verdict they stated that they had not, and that they were not at all likely to agree. Baron Channel, upon this, discharged the jury without giving a verdict, and he directed that tho prisoners should be remanded to prison and there detained until the Summer Assizes to bo again put on their trial. At the last assizes in July, Mr. Justice Keating being the judge, the prisoners were placed at the bar, and Mr. Car tor, _en_ the part_of tks proeacution, asked pertaiseion fur Harris to be admitt,d as alv ituess. This was acceded to by the learned judge, and Harris was removed from the bar. Mr. Prideaux, who was counsel for Harris, submitted that she ought to be acquitted ; but the judge ruled that this was not necessary. When the jury were about to be sworn Mr. Folkard, who was her counsel, raised an objection to the prisoner Winsor being put upon her trial. She had already been put in peril. The judge said ho did not think he could interpose; it must be error if it was anything. Mr. Folkard submitted that it had been laid down in " Hawkins's Pleas of the Crown" as an uncontroverted rule that the jury sworn and charged with a prisoner on a capital charge cook! not be discharged without the prisoner's consent. It was also so laid down in " .Forster." Mr. Justice Keating said he had had occasion to consider this point. A jury had been sworn in a capital charge, and had been discharged with out giving a verdict, and the prisoner had ikon tried a se cond and a third time. Mr. Folkard said the jury in the present case had not been locked up all night. The judge thought that could make no difference. Mr. Folkard sub mitted that the discretion of a judge to discharge a jury ought not to be exercised except upon particular necessity. The jury were not ill, and probably if they had been locked up till Monday morning they might have agreed upon a verdict. Mr. Justice Keating said he had no power to re view the decision of the learned judge who discharged tho jury ; the learned counsel was quite right in making the objection. He himself had no doubt upon the matter ; but as he had a very learned colleague in the other court, he should think it right to consult him—not t hat he entertained the slightest doubt. Mr. Justice Keating having been some time in consultation with Mr. Justice Willes, returned into court, and then said that having had the advantage of consulting Mr. Justice Willes upon the point raised by Mr. Folkard, very properly raised and very pro perly put before the Court, he was clearly of opinion that it was no objection, and Mr Justice Willes concurred with him in that opinion. He had no mate rials before him for entering upon aspown threighcitueosrtiwonroansgia w hether the discharge of the jury whether the learned Baron had exceeded his jurisdiction in discharging the jury ; but it would require a very strong argument to induce him to suppose that one of the most learned and cautious of judges had exercised his discretion otherwise than as he ought to have done. It is now stated that Lord Wensleydale has interfered and persuaded Sir George Grey to grant a respite till November, in order that the opinion of all the Judges may be taken as to the legality of this second trial. As we have stated, this has created an immense sensation. Every one, withoutany exception, is expressing a hope that justice will not be de feated by such a technicality, and we certainly never heard so strong a feeling evinced against - any criminal. THE NEGROES IN BARBADOES.—A MaSSaehUS» setts lawyer, who spent the last winter at Barbadoes, writes thus of the blacks (thirty years free) to the Boston Daily Advertiser:—"Many have acquired by their industry suffi cient property to rank them among the wealthiest planters and traders in the islands where they reside ; and consi dering a success in business a criterion of ability, they may be regarded as competent business men. The children of some of the wealthy negroes have been thoroughly educated in Englund or Scotland; and some whom I met with were among the most cultivated persons I have ever known. Aa mechanics and artisans they are altogether indispensable. The whites were never accustomed to heavy manual labour, and the lighter and more delicate work was soot' usurped by the coloured men when once at liberty to com pete on even terms. Their position as freeholders gives all the privileges as electors in parish and colonial meet ing, and the parochial and general councils and legislatures have their share of coloured representatives. It is not ne cessary to say that they outshine their white neighbours in debate and legislation, in order to prove their ability, and such is very seldom the case ; but it is certainly true that their interests are so well represented as to secure them from open or covert encroachments on the part of the whites. In the liberal professions, also, they have already assumed and evinced their ability to maintain a respectable position. Coloured clergymen, lawyers, and physicians attend to the spiritua l, l egal , and physical wants of the community, not, as might be supposed, dis posing a lone to the people of their own colour, but to people in general who need their professional services. I was much struck, in attending the court one day, with the argument of a black lawyer of unmixed African descent. The case was under the penal clause of the English bankrupt law, and was conducted by the crown officers for the prosecution. I heard the arguments to the jurisdiction of the court, and am bound to acknowledge that in point of cleverness and local astuteness the black counsel clearly led Mr. Attorney-General; while for sophistay and cunning adroitness ho was far in advance of his opponent. On inquiry I ascertained that the black lawyer was a poor boy, had worked his way to England before the mast to get an education, and had there, with the assistance of Lord John Russell and some other persons, succeeded in acquiring a sound academic and legal educ.a.. tion. Black magistrates presides over the inferior courts, black men are editors of newspapers, and to a greater or loss degree have entered into every branch of industry and every avenue of business, and have already been able to compete with a good degree of success, with the whites.'
