We quote the following from the Advertiser of this morning : " It is understood in well-informed quarters that the c,isis which has been produced by the fatuity of the House of Lords. in butchering the Corporation Bill, has been productive anything but concord at Com t. A high personage is sail t:• have become much less manageable of late than he previously was, and to have shown a decided inclination to support the Fresent Ministry. We trust that the report is true ; for what greater folly could there be than for a man who is on the verge of 70 to throw away, by one solitary act, the otherwise undying fame of having appended his name and seal to the new charte.- of the people's freedom--the Reform Act." We cordially join with our spirited contemporary, in trusting that the report is true : but if it he not, have not Ministers the game as yet in their own hands ? . The appropriation clause is not yet passed, and till that be done, a great part of the supplies voted is still in the custody of the House of Commons. By the way, we perceive that Mr. SPRING RICE has given notice that he will move the appropriation clause in the Consolidated Fund Bill to-morrow. This surely cannot be, seeing what the Lords have. done with the great measure of Municipal Reform If Mr. RICE disappoint the country in this particular, as he has done with regard to the Stamp Duties, we think he will do more damage to the Ministry than his Financial schemes are, judging by what he has dour, ever likely to benefit the people at large. The man or Minister who " keeps the word of promise to the ear, but breaks it to the hope," invariably finds in the end that he has deceived himself the most. Mr. RICE is not Mr. PITT, though he may fancy so ; nor ',old CAgTLEREAGII either ; and can hardly yet afford to turn his back upon himself. • The country is now fully roused to a becoming sense of the refractory and insulting conduct of the House of Lords. Birmingham, as one man, spoke out last Tuesday, and the rest of the towns and cities which have not yet met, are preparing to follow its example. The movement, in short, is as general as it was during the progress of the Reform Bill ; and if it be not quite so vehement—quite so combustible in its character—it is only because there is more confidence among the people, arising from a firmer conviction of their strength, than prevailed during that stormy period. Then we only guessed at our power. Now we know its full extent. Then we were grappling with Leviathan. Now we have hooked him, and with such a firm cable, that not all the plunges of the monster can pre vent our dragging him ashore, and cutting him up. The question of hereditary legislation is indeed on the eve of being settled for ever. Men have suffered so much from this anomaly ; it has injured them in so many ways ; now by foreign wars, and now by domestic taxation ; here by monopolies, and there by feudal pri vileges; this day by the income tax, and the next by the corn-laws ; that they have become sick of the very mention of the nuisance, and are everywhere discussing the expediency of shaking it off. When Liverpool cries out " What is the use of the Lords ?" and Manchester, Birmingham, and a hundred other places hasten to swell the chorus, be sure the days of hereditary legislation are well nigh numbered. Yet their Lordships, scarcely yet awake to a sense of their true position, are, we see, proposing the erection of a new House I Had they not better first ascertain whe ther they will have occasion for it ? These are not times when men are fond of venturing on large outlays of ca pital, without the certainty of an adequate return. For a thoroughly Reformed House of Lords, the people might possible agree to secure suitable accommodation; but we question much whether they would relish the idea of furnishing the funds for a new costly building, which is to be tenanted only by their worst enemies. But to return to a more pressing topic. The amend ment which has most disgusted the country—as we judge from the numerous communications which we are daily receiving—is Lord LYNDHURST'S qualifica tion clause, which, as is every where sensibly and forcibly urged, changes in toto the character of the Corporation Bill. It not only destroys the popular principle of the measure, but substitutes instead, an exclusively a ristocratical one. It makes the size and rent of the house, the only criterion of its tenant's fit ness for guarding theinterests of his neighbours. The man himself is nothing; ; it is his dwelling that is the sole consideration. He himself may be intelligent— honest--persevering—cxperienced ; a good father--a good husband—a good friend—a good citizen—still i f h e happen to rent a house below the rate of qualification, he is no more entitled to have a vote in the borough where he resides, than the veriest beggar that ever swept a crossing in St. Giles's. Is this preference of wealth (however unaccompanied by desert) to acknow ledged intelligence and integrity, to be endured ? As suredly not, for it strikes at the root of all public mo rality. Let Lord LYNDHURST'S clause once come into full operation, and who will constitute the ma jority of our Municipal electors? Why, shrewd knaves and aspiring adventurers, who will make a point of renting houses far above their means, in the hope that they may be enabled to reimburse themselves by fur thering the cause of Municipal corruption. In the old NEWCASTLE boroughs, we shall still have NEWCASTLE agents ; and thus the very measure intended for the benefit of the many, will have no other result than perpetuating the benefit of the few. Such is a Tory's notions of Corporate Re form I Such the spirit in which he deals with inve terate abuses I But the clause cannot—shall not pass. The people must look to it ; their representatives must look to it ; and both insist on its instant, wholesale re vision. Their Lordships are much mistaken if they think that the Bill will pass in its present shape, or even be adjourned over to another Session. The House of Commons will not prorogue till they have restored it to its original state ; for it is not to be endured that when the country has asked for one measure, it should be put off with another. Our demand is for a popular Corporation Reform, and their Lordships (kind souls I) proffer us instead an aristocratic one ! Mark, too, the period at which they volunteer this deliberate insult ! Is it when they are themselves supreme in influence ? No ; but when, with all their intrigues, all their watchfulness, and all their perseverance, they can scarcely manage to keep themselves afloat from one hour to another ! Verily, the whole Tory squad are infatuated, and it is our duty, not less than our interest, to profit by their infatuation. We have got the adder fairly in our grasp ; let us hasten, then, to extract its venom hag. The proceedings which took place in the House of Commons last night, with reference to the Orange Lodges, possess considerable interest. It was evident from the conduct of the Tories, since the first mooting of this question, that they were alarmed at the probable , consequences of an investigation into these Associa tions, and that they would do all in their power to stifle inquiry. At first they pretended to laugt. at the idea of investing the subject with such importance as to bring it before Parliament. It was only one of Mr. HUME's crotchets, they said, and therefore deserved no notice. 'When, ho•weve:. they found that Mr. HUM E made out so strong a cast that tl►e House of Commons addres , ed the Crown re specting the conduct of the Duke of CUMBERLANL in cstabiishing secret Societies in the army, and ap pointed a Select Committee to enquire into the nature. e.ytent, and object of those Societies—when they fount! the matter taking this serious turn—they all at once pro fessed the utmost anxiety for a thorough investigation. They were ready to throw open the door of every Orange Lodge in time empire to the Committee. Not a document, not a scrap of paper, that could throw the least light upon their proceedings, that they were not most desirous of producing to the whole world. They had no mystery, no concealment about them. All they wanted was time strictest and most searching examination into their loyal and much-calumniated Orange Lodges. As to the character of the Grand Master, the more it was inquired into, the higher it would stand. It resembled sterling gold seven times tried in time fire, and coining out brighter and purer from every trial. Such professions from such a quarter necessarily aroused suspicion. No one at all acquainted with the nature of the animal called a Tory could doubt for a moment that the Orangemen had made up their minds to keep back as much information as they dared. Accordingly when Colonel FA I RMAN, Deputy Grand Treasurer and Secretary of the Orange Institution of Great Britain is called upon to produce a certain book to the Committee, he refuses. And on what ground ? Be cause the book contains nothing about Orange Lodges? No such thing. He admits that it contains his official correspondence on that subject. " But," says the Deputy Grand Secretary, " this book also con tains some private matters which I do not choose to submit to your inspection. You have just as much right to demand a sight of my banker's book." This is, in fact, the only reason which the Secretary of the Orange Lodges could give for withholding a document necessary to the successful investigation of the question before the Committee. And, will it be believed, when this officer is brought to the bar of the House of Commons, and there repeats his refusal, he is applauded and abetted by those very men who were only the other day so eager for an opportu nity to lay open their proceedings to public inspection ! It is truly comical to hear the SHA WS, the PERCE vALs, and the SCARLETTS advocating, at the top of their lungs, the liberty of the subject, so grossly vio lated in the person of Colonel FAIRMAN. What heart of human mould can resist the pathetic appeal of the gallant Colonel SIBTHORP, when he declares, in such woe-begone accents, that the glory is departed from Israel—that an Englishman's house is no longer his castle, since the House of Commons has ordered a refractory witness to produce papers which it thinks necessary to the elucidation of an important public question ? But to be serious—is it not lamentable to-see the spirit of faction carried to such a degree ? Are the Tories so blinded by their desire to screen a great cul prit, who happens to belong to their party, as not to see that, according to the doctrine maintained by them last night, no subject depending on written testimony could ever be satisfactorily investigated by the House of Commons. A reluctant witness would have nothing to do but to insert a few private memoranda in any book or paper which he suspected might be called for, and it becomes private property. Its sanctity cannot then be violated, should the fate of an empire depend upon its production! We are happy to find, from what passed in the House of Lords last night, that considerable reduc tions are to be made in the Militia Staff. A Bill for carrying this object into effect passed through Com mittee last night, and was ordered to be reported to morrow. The Duke of WELLINGTON and some other Tory Lords seemed apprehensive that the Government were carrying the reduction too far. Our only regret is that it was not made sooner and carried farther. Our military establishment is on much too large a scale, and we trust that as soon as our Noble Masters have passed the Irish Church Reform Bill, a considerable diminution may take place. If that Bill does not pass, we must expect a contrary course to be adopted by the statesmen who shall suc ceed the present Ministers. We must then lay our account with seeing Ireland a camp from the one end to the other. We find the following in a Morning Contem. porary :—" We understand that the House oi Lords will not oppose the committal of the Irish Church Bill, but that in Committee they will strike out those parts of the measure which spoliate the revenues of the Irish Church, and which have shocked to the last degree every sincet•e Protestant who va lues the maintenance of pure reformed religion above ail political or factious consideration." This is no news to us, nor indeed to any one else. We all knew that the Lords would repudiate the va►uable DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. New 5 per Cent India Stack 254 g, Ditto Bends 4 6 pm.

THE SUN, LONDONUttSD Ir TG v S rri 2 0, 18 n fit" portion of the Irish Church Bill, and as for their going into Committee with it, what is this but playing over again the same juggling game that they have al ready played, so disastrously for themselves, with Cor poration Reform ? Our readers will be glad to see that a Committee has been appointed, on the motion of Mr. HUME, to inquire into the Plymouth job to which we referred yesterday. We wish Mr. DAWSON, the servant, on whom, it seems, his master Lord ASHLEY has fixed the responsibility in this case—rather an unusual mode of proceeding—well out of the scrape. Our readers will find under the head " Determined Suicide of a Boy," some melancholy details respecting a high-spirited youth, eleven years of age, who having been punished by his schoolmaster on some occasion, by a log of wood being affixed to his leg, and the in scription " Runaway" fastened on his back, was so affected by a sense of his degradation that he com mitted suicide. It is right of course that refractory boys should be corrected, but then the correction should be administered with some regard to propriety, and the character of the boy who has to endure it. In the present instance, the poor lad was treated just as if he were a runaway animal. Not the slightest deference was paid to his feelings—for had even his schoolmaster's horse run restive, he could not have been more summarily dealt with. It is disheartening to reflect how many vulgar, narrow minded bigots and pedants are entrusted with the most momentous of all duties—that of education. A school master, from the very nature of his vocation, should be endowed with a liberal and comprehensive intel lect ; but in far too many of our private establish ments, he is a mere pompous, ignorant, self-opinion ated tyrant. The whole of the Paris papers of Tuesday have been received. The Journal de Paris contains the following official bulletin : " Don CARLOS, on the 10th inst., marched in the direction of Vittoria. CORDOVA, who is at Logrono, observes all the movements of the Pretender. Three Carlist battalions arrived on the 10th inst., at Aoyz. They speak of entering Arragon, but IRIARTE, who arrived the same day at Pampeluna, with his column, and GURREA, who is at Artajona with his forces, will be able to defeat their purpose." In the same journal we find the heads of a plan for the pacification of Spain, which is attributed to a no less distinguished person than AMARILL As, a mem ber of the Madrid Cabinet. We learn, on the same authority, that this plan, or project, or whatever els,• it may be called, has found favour in the eyes of the Citizen King, in whose august name it is to b.. submitted to the approval of the Congress of Sove reigns at Toplitz. The following is an outline of this important project :- 1. That Donna ISABELLA 11. shall marry th? eldest son of his most Catholic Majesty CHARL ES, V. who shall jointly share with her MAJEsTv in the Government of the kingdom. 2. That CHARLES V. shall abdicate the throne of Spain in favour of the future King and Queen. 3. That as soon as this application is formally an nounced by Don CA RLOS, the States of the kingdom will proceed to revoke the law which declares that both . himself and his posterity are for ever excluded from the sovereignty of Spain. 4. That the three Princes, sons of Don CAR LOS, shall enter Spain under an escort of 25,000 troops provided by the French Government, but with no more than one English regiment. 5. That the eldest son of Don CARLOS shall take the name of Louis 11., and that the kingdom shall be governed under the joint authority of himself and his Royal Consort as united Sovereigns of Spain. 6. That the Spanish Government, so settled, shall be recognised by the whole of the European Sovereigns. 7. That a pension of five millions of reals shall be granted to Don CARLOS during his natural life, to be paid out of the public Treasury. 8. That a pension of three millions of reals shall be granted to the QUEEN REGENT for the same period, and in the same form ; subject, however, to the pro viso, that her MAJESTY do not reside, for longer than a certain number of days periodically, within fifty leagues of the Spanish Court. 9. That the KING and QUEEN shall mutually bind themselves to uphold and maintain the Royal Estatudo granted to the country by the QUEEN REGENT. 10. That France and England engage themselves to preserve inviolate the present rights, liberties, cus toms, and privileges, commonly called thejiteros, of the Basques and Navarrese Provinces. 11. That an amnesty shall be proclaimed which shall include all past political offences whatsoever. 12. That Government shall take upon itself the li quidation of all debts contracted since the commence ment of the war, including the several loans raised by Don CARLOS. 13. That Louis 11. shall be empowered to enter upon the functions of lawful Sovereign of Spain even before his coronation, as far as regards the army and the administration of justice. 14. That no English or French troops now in Spain, or which shall enter it as an escort to Louis 11., shall leave it on any account whatever during the pleasure of the reigning Sovereign. 15. That the Cortes shall be summoned as early as convenient, in order that the Legislative bodies may swear allegiance to the KING and QUEEN, and adopt measures for the safety of the nation. Such are the heads of a project of pacification which is reported to have received the sanction of the Queen Regent of SPAIN, and of TORENO. the President of the Council. Fm our own part we believe that the Regent of SPAIN knows nothing whatever about it ; nay more, that neither AMARILLA.S nor TORENO ever saw an article of it before its appearance in the demi official Journal de Paris. There is no person so shallow as not to perceive from the slightest attention to the above document that AMARILLAS could not have penned it, and that the Madrid Cabi net could not have sanctioned it. Don CA.RLOS never was King of SPAIN, and therefore the Govern ment could not insist on his abdication of a Throne which he never mounted. Neither would the REGENT consent to go into an honourable exile, having com mitted no crime against the State, or attempted to invade, curtail, or abolish, the regal rights of the Constitutional Sovereign. The only domestic news of any importance in the French Journals of Tuesday will be found in our ex tracts from them. " PARIS, AUG. 18.—NEws OF THE MORNING.—The Go vernment has received several telegraphic despatches which have not been published. We have reason to believe that they contain details of the rapid progress of the revolution in Spain. Notwithstanding the efforts of the Ministry, the truth cannot long be concealed. " No official publication has been made to confirm the news of the death of the King of Naples. " Marshal Soult continues to be very assiduous in his visits to the Tuileries. It is said that he has made his peace by means of the inheritance of the Duke of Treviso, and that he obtains the office of Chancellor to the Legion of Honour, establishing the precedent that this office may be enjoyed to gether with that of President of the Council. " The Municipal Council of Avignon has refused to vote an address to the King. This example has been followed by the Municipality of Marseilles. Accordingly a serenade was given it while sitting in the Town Hall. A great number of citizens joined the musicians, and while they were performing the Marseillaise shouted, The Liberty of the Press for ever— No Censorship. The Memorial Bordelais announces positively that the cholera has appeared at Toulouse. " The Indicateur speaks also, but without answering for the fact, of the appearance of the disorder at Castelnandary. " M.

The opinion of the Judges on the remaining questions for their decision respecting the Islington Market Bill was announced. The Slavery Com pensation Bill, the Consolidated Offices Bill, the Paymaster- General Bill, and the Peace Preservation (Ireland) Bill went through committee. Petitions for and against the Municipal Corporations Bill, in favour of the Islington Market Bill, and several against the Irish Church Bill, were presented. On the latter some conversation took place. The subject of Orangeism in the University of Dublin called forth some strong language. Lord MELBOURNE, in presenting a petition from Bury in favour of the Municipal Corporations Bill, stated that he had received a communication from the Recorder of Newcastle, who denied so far as he was concerned, the statements made in the " evi dence" recently produced at the Bar by their Lordships com mand. Some conversation succeeded on the subject of a vote of the Commons for the purpose of building a new House for the Lords. The Militia Staff Reduction Bill passed through Committee. On the motion of Lord STRANGFORD, a message was ordered to be sent to the House of Commons, requesting that House to communicate to their Lordships a copy of the evidence during the last and the present session on the subject of the condition of the hand-loom weavers. In the COMMONS', at the early sitting, some petitions were presented. One presented by Mr. O'CONNELL referring to the administration of justlee in the Colony of Newfoundland, led to some discussion. On the re-assembling of the House in the evening, Mr. BARCLAY brought op the Report of the Com mittee on the Carlow Election Petition, which stated that Messrs. VIGORS and RAPHAEL were not duly elected, that M. KAVANAGII and Colonel BRITEN were duly elected, and that the petition was neither frivolous nor vexatious. The Report of :he Constabeleev Force ( Ireland) Bill was brought up, and the Exchequer Bills Bill passed through Committee. Mr. THORNELEY gave notice, that on Monday he would call the attention of the House to the evidence taken on the Wolver hampton inquiry. On the motion of Mr. HUME, Colonel FAIRMAN, the Oioinge Secretary was called to the Bar, where, (oil the plea that it was private) he still persisted in his refusal to produce a certain letter-book, which the Committee ap- pointed to inquire into the proceedings of Orange Lodges had before demanded of him. Mr. WALLACE then moved to the effect that he be token into the custody of the Sergeant-at- Arms, who should seize the book, with such other papers as might be found in his house, relating to Orange Lodges. After an animated and extended discussion, for the Report of which we refer to the debate, it was agreed, on the motion of Mr. Rice, that Col. FA IRMAN should be called to the bar, and informed that the House was of opinion that he was bound to produce the book. Col. FAIRMAN having been called in, was addressed by the SPEAKER to the effect that it was the opinion of the House that the book in question should be produced, that it was the duty of a witness to yield obedience to such an expression of opinion, and that he had no doubt the Colonel would comply. The recusant then withdrew, and the matter was dropped for the present. SILAS PEARSE'S petition, which we noticed yester day, was referred to a Select Committee, on the motion of Mr. WARBURTON, who divided the House. The Land Secu rities (Ireland) Bill, and the Spirit Licenses Bill, went through Committee, and the Reports were ordered to be re ceived to-day. The Registration of Voters ( Ireland) Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-day. 0:1 motion for going into Committee on the Landed Securities (Ireland) Bill, Mr. LYNCH moved the postponement of the Committee for six months. Upon a division there appeared for the motion, 39 ; for the amendment, IS. The Bill then passed through Committee. The Larceny ( Ireland) and the Certiorari Bills passed through Committee. - The Report of the Civil Bill Courts Bill was brought up. The Tidies on Turnips Bill was passed. Sl' IPPING .-(T HIS DAY.)

POST OFFICE NOTICE.—His Majesty's Ship, Scorpion, with the Lisbon Mail of the 18th inst., will sail on the arrival of the post of the 19th at Falmouth. The NATIONAL—And AGRICULTURAL AND COMMERCIAL BANKS OF IRELAND. We have received a communication from the Clerk to the Committee of the Agricultural and Commercial Bank of Ire land, respecting the report of a speech of Mr. Reynolds, de livered at Waterford, on the subject of these Banks, and copied into The Sun of the 10th instant, with a request to insert a copy of an address from certain noblemen and gentle ment in the county of Kerry; but we conceive the answer to that address to contain libellous matter on the National Bank of Ireland. We cannot, therefore, give circulation to it:; but we have no hesitation in saying that we regret being intrumental in giving circulation to a rumour which might have been pre judicial to the establishment of the Agricultural Bank. We merely copied the report of the speech in question from a Wa terford paper. We have been assured by the Agents in London of the Agricultural and Commercial Bank of Ireland, that that part of Mr. Reynolds's speech relative to the stoppage of some of its Branch Banks is entirely without foundation. LOOKING THROUGH A GLASS.—Mr. Spring Rice, in taking the duty off glass, has done that which makes it easy to see through the fallacy of his promises of retrench ment.—Figaro in London.

A STRANGE CONNECTION.---It is not generally known that the Whig and Tory leaders frequently meet in private, and that in social intercourse they admit the games that they are respectively playing. The other day Wellington (strange as it may seem) was talking to Melbourne, and the Minister was trying to persuade the Tory Duke to renounce his opposition, urging that they both had the same object, na mely—" to humbug the people." " Pray," said Melbourne, " let us avoid a collision of the Houses, and settle the dif ference." " No, no," was the Duke's reply, " U and I (you and I) make all the difference— U (you) for collusion, I for collision."—Figaro in London.

On the moving of the Order of the Day upon this Bill— Mr. WALTER rose for the purpose of moving the ap pointment of a Select Committee to inquire into the circum stances attending the introduction of a Bill, entitled, an Act to amend the Act relating to the Thames Tunnel, passed in the 3d and 4th years of his present Majesty ; and, also, to inquire further respecting the advance of 30,0001. by the Commissioners for the issue of Exchequer Bills in aid of public works, under the provisions of the Act, with a view to prevent the advance of public money without full and adequate security for the re payment of the same. The Hon. Member considered that on the present occasion the money had been advanced without any of the preparatory steps unually adopted. The Hon. Member who had stated himself to be one of the Directors of the Com pany, was in great error when he supposed that the money had been advanced under any individual Act, framed for that pur pose. He had stated also that the information on which hi% (Mr. Walter's) statement was grounded was altogether with out foundation. Now, if gentlemen would only look to the minutes and documents which had been laid on the table, they would find the direct contrary to that.—( Hear ) He was determined from the impropriety of that grant to in vestigate it from public sources only ; and he would also add, without transgressing the bounds of propriety or of respect for the Hon. Members, that it appeared singular that while one Hon. Director of that Company was engaged in passing through a Bill on the Ist of April, 1833, authorizing the ad vance of 270,0001. to the Company, another Hon. Director was presenting a petition praying for an advance of public money ; but which was rejected, not having received the sanction of his Majesty's Government. The Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer had contended in favour of the regularity of the proceeding, but that appeared to him at least a matter of doubt, as it was a standing rule of the House, that no Bill whatever should be passed, involving a grant of public money, except in a committee of the whole House. He ( Mr. Walter) begged to ask whether this form had been complied with? He would venture to say that not a dozen Mem bers were apprised of it, as, if so, the House would have instantly rejected the grant. He did not mean to impute any impropriety to the Right Hon. Gentleman, but the absence of the do cuments for which he had moved was conclusive evidence that the money bad been advanced in the most unguarded manlier possible. The Right Hon. Gentleman had contended that it would be a national reproach if this work was not completed, and had urged the propriety of completing this stupendous work. In his (Mr. Walter's) opinion, and he was sup ported in it by competent authority, that it was a stu pendous folly. A score of floating bridges could be made across the Thames for what had already been expended on that work. He contended that the Commissioners for the issue of Exchequer bills had departed from the regular course of proceeding, and that the Bill had been passed in an improper manner. .The Right Hon. Gentleman would pro bably say, that he would take care no further money should be granted, but if the Right Hon. Gentleman extended his care a little further, he might be able to get back a portion of the money not yet expended; because, if the Directors were men of integrity (as they must be aware of the absurdity of the undertaking), they would return what had not yet been consumed. If the Committee for which he had moved was refused, the country would see that the Government was throwing the broad shield of ministerial influence over those who were their supporters. But he ( Mr. Walter) would assert that, during the last thirty years, nothing had oc curred which was better entitled to investigation than the pre sent t-ansaction. Or. these grounds he hoped the House would not refuse him the Committee for which he had moved, and a few days would be sufficient to investigate the matter fully. . . The question having been put, Mr. BA RING contended that there was no wish on the part of his Majesty's Government to " throw the broad shield of ministerial protection" over the parties concerned. The Hon. Member enquired if, in the present case, the standing rule of the House, that the money should have been voted in a Committee of the whole House, had been complied with ? But he could tell the Hon. Member that the present case did not come under the standing rule to which he had alluded.— ( Hear, hear.) There was scarcely a private Bill that passed through that House which did not contain a provision giving a power to borrow money upon Exchequer Bills —( Hear. ) This very session a Bill had passed containing the same clauses ; in point of fact there were several precedents in which the same thing had been done, and he thought that no one but the Hon. gentleman the Member for Berkshire could imagine that this had been a grant of public money. The Hon. gentleman has moved for a Committee respecting the introduction of this Bill. He could not imagine that any gentleman could suppose that a Committee would be granted to inquire into the circumstances which had attended the pass ing of a public Act, unless, indeed, where there was shewn some case of incorrectness, or something that raised suspicion. He could not entertain the notion of appointing a Com mittee to inquire how an Act of Parliament had passed.— ( Hear, hear.) With regard to what the Hon. Member had said relating to the Treasury, he could say, that his Noble Friend ( Lord Spencer) felt extremely interested in this great public undertaking—he had attended to the different deputa tions, and had inquired with the greatest care and zeal into the subject. After fully examining the whole question, he stated the result of his inquiry to the Treasury Board—a transaction which happened every Board-day at the Treasury. The transaction was this—the Treasury found that a Bill had passed the House, which left to their discretion whether they would authorize the issue of certain Exchequer Bills. This was the usual course adopted by the House. They considered it as a mere matter of mercantile speculation. It gave them the usual power of raising Exchequer bills, but they left it to the discretion of the Treasury to inquire whe ther there was sufficient mercantile security for the repayment of the advance. This was a case of great public interest, in which it was but fair that there should be an advance of public money. It was a case in which the Treasury considered that, though they did not make out such security as that the public would be perfectly safe in making the advance, yet they con sidered that the interest attached to It was very great, that a great interest attached to it abroad, and that as soon as a foreigner landed, his first question was with regard to these works. He thought that upon these grounds the Treasury had fairly aright to advance this loan. They were to be repaid if the works an swered, but they considered that the risk was too much for any private individual to undergo. This power was exercised with a great deal of care on the part of the Treasury—they had endeavoured to exercise this discretion in such a manner as would give protection to the public by obtaining the best security they could. He would say that, in this transaction the Treasury had acted with the greatest caution. They had advanced at first a small portion of the money which was to be applied to the most dangerous part of the' works, and if they succeeded, and if the engi neers reported favourably they were to continue to advance. The Hon. Member has said that he does not mean to impute improper motives to my Noble Friend. He thought he might leave his Noble Friend's character to take care of itself— ( Loud cheers) ; and he thought, therefore, he would best consult the feelings of the House by not paying the slightest attention to the No insinuations of the Hon. Member. Mr. HAWES contended that the charge now made was essentially different from that made by the Hon. Member on a former occasion. The Hon. Member had said that this Act had been smuggled through that House, but why did he bring forward no Act in support of his insinuation ? He did not care if his public condust were compared with that of the Hon. Member for Berkshire, and he could tell him that' thi s _ _ _ Bill had taken a considerable time in passing through that House.—( Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member said it was odd that it should have been read on the same day that the Member for Devonport presented a petition hi its favour. He believed that this was a usual practice.—( A laugh.) He denied that this Bill was to authorise an advance of public money. I. did no such thing. It was under an Act of Parliament that the 1:1 been made, and he distinctly denied and repelled the charge of the Bill having been smuggled through Parliament. All the money had been up by the original subscribers, who had not the slightest idea of making any money from the spe culation, but in order to support and carry through a great national undertaking. Then as to the security—the Lord Spencer, at the suggestion of the Duke of Wellington, and the Proprietors of the Tunnel, made a calculation of what the probable proceeds of the work would be, and he reported that it would amount to 15,0001. per annum, with which both Mr. Goulbourn and the Duke of Wellington were well pleased. Upon the question that there had been a union of all parties—in the deputation which waited on the Noble Duke, there were thirty Members of that House, and consisting of men of all parties. He did not feel it necessary to defend himself, as he had not been attacked by name— but he was obliged to say that the Honourable Member for Berkshire had made charges which he could not justify and support, and, therefore, he thought they were unworthy the notice of Parliament. Lord G. SOME R SET considered the question as one of very great importance. When so large a sum of public money as 240,0001. was at stake it well behoved the Parliament to make some inquiry into the chances of its being repaid. The work might be very stupendous and very noble, still it was not one of national importance, and the public money ought to be well secured before it was advanced. It had _ ne ver been shown upon what grounds the several sums of money had been advanced, or how the interest was to be paid. The enterprize was for a mere local advantage, and did not bear the character of a great national concern, and there fore he should decidedly object to the advancement of any further sum until some better reason for it, and security against any further unnecessary expenditure, could be found. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had on a former occasion opposed the motion of the Hon. Member, because it was a proposition which ought not to be supported, for it was such a motion for enquiry as he had never seen be fore. It was to move for enquiry into circumstances attending the introduction of a Bill to amend the Thames Tunnel Act, so as to prevent a further advance of 30,0001. If he stood alone, he would refuse that inquiry, and any one who sup ported it would intimate that he believed there was some thing wrong in the manner in which the Bill was introduced. The measure, in his opinion, ought to have originated in a Committee of the whole House. With the great knowledge the Hon. Member had displayed of the usages of Parliament, he challenged him to produce a single instance in the annals of Parliament, in which that course had been adopted, a de parture from which he had imputed to his Majesty's Ministers as an irregularity. If such a motion had ever been made dur. ing the time the present Speaker's predecessor was in office, he would have checked and put an end to it at once. Now he had got a precedent for them, and.one to which he wished to call the particular attention of his Noble Friend opposite, as it was a precedent introduced in good times, beciuse it Wat, introduced at a period when the Noble Lord was connecte d with the Government himself. The case he alluded to was that of the Ulster Canal, where the Commissioners' of Exchequer Bills were empowered to grant 120,0 004 forward the completion of that work. Now, with respect to the subject under consideration, it was clear from what had taken place, that the Duke of Wellington himself, and the Government of which he was the head, entertained the same views and opinions as the present Government did of the iln" portance of this Company. In the 22d clause of the Act,. power was given to apply for a loan to the Commissioners of Exchequer Bills. It gave them the power to borrow money without personal security,'„or interest at a higher rate than 4 per cent. Why did the Government acquiesce in that ? Be" cause it was felt to be a great national undertaking. It was considered not only necessary that it should be completed, but that it was a great national disgrace not to complete it. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers.) The course the Government had taken, was not from precedents of their own making, but from [those of an adverse Government. H e thought therefore that the present Government was fully jos tified in acting as they had done. It was however the inten tion of the Government to proceed with caution, and he wou ld not allow the use of a single sixpence without having befo r him such an authoritative Report as he could pledge hirnse li to lay before the House of Commons, and it would then be for the House to decide whether the Treasury had or had no t made the advances on adequate grounds. If it were ther e found that the Government had act e d i m p ro p er ly, it woul d then be the proper time for the Hon. Member to make h is motion. He would not break faith with this individual. -- ; (Great cheering.) He would not break faith under tenor of , the Hon. Member's Committee, or his appeal to the honour of Lord Althorp.—( Hear.) Even the Noble Lord opposi te (Granville Somerset), had stated that he did not ar prove of taking back any portion of the money alree 4 If advanced. He (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) would be most cautious in making any grants of the public money b e did not know whether any further grant would be required by that Company ; but if it was, it would not be given withou t inquiry, and the most satisfactory evidence, not from the Cow pany alone, but from sources independent of the Compaq' Let not the Honourable Gentleman indulge in attack! upon Acts of Parliament, to which the House b ad given its concurrence ; but when the Honourable Mo n " ber brought forward any motion upon his (the Chancellor of the Exchequer's) public conduct, relative to the appropriati ot ! of the public money, and he would himself be ready to seco nd the motion. On these grounds he did not object to the O P' pointment of the Committee. The Hon. Member had de voted himself to one peculiar species of discovery, and he be lieved the Hon. Member was one of the most renowned of that large class of persons who entered upon that sort of specula' tion which related to the discovery of mare's nests—(A lane' ) —and he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) never saw a faire r specimen of a mare's nest than the present.—( Hear.) An HON. MEMBER (name unknown) had seconded the mo tion of the Hon. Member for Berkshire, because he though t the public should know upon what grounds this large grante d public money had been made. The matter, however, be. been met so handsomely and so fairly by the members f his Majesty's Government, that he begged to express his entire satisfaction, and he would also hope that this great undertaki n g would be successful.—( Hear.) Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON having presented , th e petition alluded to by the Hon. Member for Berkshire, co nes tended that when the subject was then before th e H ous e woul d have been the proper time to offer objections to the. intro' duction of the Bill. He (Sir E. Codringt on ) h a d t h e n stat` - that if his Majesty's Government would advance a loan to the Company, it would be received as a great boon and give ve r i great satisfaction. The undertaking was one of very great It tional importance, and with respect to the asserti o n that Bill had been smuggled through Parliament, that was a uncalled for assertion, as the subject had been for month all.; month upon the notices, and every Member of that House O'"' apprized of it.—( Hear.) The motion was negatived without a division. CARLOW ELECTION. fhe Clerk of the Crown attended to amend the Return et the Carlow election. On the Order of the Day for the third reading of the C Ol/ ' stabulary Force in Ireland Bill being read, old Mr. S. CRAWFORD expressed his fear that it WO lead to considerable expense, and that with out t h e es tablish' ment of a local police it would be ineffective. With regard „, i the oath which police-officers were to tak e , swear i ng they rls not members, and would not become members of any politic_t society, while in the force, he would suggest t h at t h e iv° lw should be " any secret or affiliated so c i e ty," f or h e was ca' tain that the Orange societies would change their feat's and call themselves religious, in order to evade it. Lord MO RPE TI-I said that the words had been altered s° as to render the clause more comprehensive. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. GLASS DUTIES' BILL.
