SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. A letter from Kalisch will be found in another part of our journal, which touches on several ini;ortant subjects. The writer is a well-informed man, in every way deserving of our confidence ; and although more recent communications which we have received con cerning the intent,ions of the Sovereigns who are now assembled at 'Eceplitz enable us to correct some of his statements, 'do doubt can be entertained that at the pe riod wil.:11 he wrote, schemes were in agitation, treaties were in progress, and movements projected, such or iearly such as he points out. Material modifica tions have since taken place in the plans which were originally concocted in the Russian Chancery; and we should not be much surprised if, after all the costly preparations which have been undertaken with a view to display the agility of some tamed robbers from Kurdistan and Circassia, the Con gress separate without entering into any formal sti pulations whatever. One of the objects in assem bling Russian and Prussian troops on the Polish frontier, was to exhibit to all Europe the spi rit of cordial amity by which not only the two Sovereigns, but also the two armies, arc animated. We. believe that the results of the meeting have not been quite so agreeable to all parties as they had expected. A few slight incidents which occurred at the very commencement of this mock campaign, i:adicated so decidedly the jealousies of the rival corps, that it was deemed necessary to fix their encampments at a considerable distance from each other. On one occasion, when the Imperial and Royal Guards became engaged in the mimic war, it required great activity on the part of the Prussian of ficers to prevent it from being turned into a most sP.; i . guinary conflict. It is quite true, as our Correspon dent states, that - the Russian Commissariat was wretchedly served on this occasion. In fact, so short were the supplies, whether from bad mai:lagement or the want of funds, that several.reriiments actually went out to forage in the Prussian territory, as if they had been scouring an enemy's country. The depredations of these rnen have left lasting im pressions behind thee. Moreover, the Prussian people, as well a the people generally through out Germany, have looked upon this en campment a% a menace against themselves, and as a kind of proclamation against the realization of those political reforms to which they look forward with con fident, though patient hope. The Prussians do not forget that a constitution was promised to them by by their present Monarch : they believe that he has adopted, by the diffusion of education, the best means for preparing the subjects to administer that constitu tion safely when it shall be established, and they have asked, therefore, for what purpose those expenses were incurred which have contributed to bring a large mili tary force together within their kingdom. Are their just expectations of a constitution to be put down by a band of Ural Cossacks ? We predict that the experiment of Kalisch will not be repeated. The King of . Prussia esteems his subjects, and sympathizes with their feelings—which arc anything but Russian. When the new uniforms were in course of preparation, which his Majesty and his aides-de-camp were to display at the reviews, it was suggested that he should have not only the uniform of his own Guards, but that also of the Rus sian Guards, in honour of the Emperor. To this he objected strongly ; but at length was prevailed upon to submit. When he put on the coat, and saw himself in a mirror thus Russianized, it is said that he ordered the badge of his dependence to be instantly taken out of his sight. His manner betrayed an emotion not to be misunderstood. As to the idea of a war, of which our Correspondent speaks, we have no sort of ap prehension. If Russia cannot feed sixty thousand men in or near Poland, we should like to know how she can sustain a hundred or two hundred thou sand men in the centre or the south of Europe ? The Emperor has not the " sinews of war," and, what is more, he cannot get them. Prussia is, to use the phrase of one well skilled in her policy, " doggedly pacifi c ;" she has no object of her own to fight for, and titer troops will never be sent out of her territory for the aggrandizement of Russia. As to Austria, the total absence of her troops from Kalisch, is significant of her determination to abstain from giving the slightest encouragement to the domineering views of the Autocrat. Nicholas had certainly tended to procure from the Congress a declarar2lon in favour of Don Carlos. For this purpose his Ministers had prepared five resolutions, the object of which was to state the determination of the Sovereigns to acknow ledge the rebel as King of Spain as soon as he had established himself at Vittoria, or Madrid. Agents were to be sent to his head-quarters with instructions to that effect. Arms and munitions of war were to be supplied to him, and experienced officers were to be permitted to give him their assistance. These resolu tions were drawn up with the privity of M. Ancillon; the Prussian Prime Minister ; but they have not been acceded to by his Royal Master, and the Emperor of Austria discountenanced them from the be ginning. 'We do not believe that Prince Metter nich has made the declaration ascribed to him by our correspondent. The commercial league to which our correspondent alludes undoubtedly deserves our utmost vigilance. We are not as yet sufficiently informed as to its details to enter upon that subject. In the mean time, we may remark, that those countries which have already become members of that confederation, appear to gain some advantages from the simplification of their tariffs, and the reduction of the countless Custom houses by which their internal commerce had been hitherto impeded. How tar such a combination for domestic purpe;ses might by possibility be applied as an instruineTA for checking the importation of British manufactures, is another question. One thine is cer tain, that no system of prohibitive duties can be esta blished against us without the consent of each of the States comprehended in the league ; and their respec tive interests with relation to England differ so widely, that the Chambers which legislate for most of them can scarcely be supposed capable of sacrificing thre e interests to the views of Prussia, even when veileii un der the form of a mere fiscal reeulation. --Morning Chronicle. Anxious for the honour and interests of England, which our pseudo-liberals in ofFice so sadly neglect or meanly sacrifice, we have taken frequent opportunities during the last five years of endeavouring to persuade or shame Lord Palmerston into assuming a tone wor thy of the foreign policy of England. For this we have, naturally enough, incurred the abuse of the sy cophants of the Whig Ministry, in those Morning and Evening Journals whose opinions are at the command of the Treasury. Still we have pursued, through evil and good report, a course which is, at least, disinte rested, and. which we trust is patriotic—its object be ing, without regard to political party, the vindication of the fame, and the protection of the national 6; i /its and commercial interests of our country. That the honour of England has been sullied—.that her com mercial interests have been betrayed--that her fame has declined among the nations, and that foreign Powers have aggrandized themselves at our expense during the last five years, is unfortunately as true as it is humiliating. These arc the consequences—the bit ter fruits or that truckling system of concession and compromise which has prevailed in Downing-street ever since the present Secretary for Foreign Affairs was intrusted with those high duties, to the adequate dis charge of which he has proved himself to be utterly incompetent. Need we remind the public of the treaty which guaranteed the national independence of Poland, insolently torn to pieces by the Autocrat of Russia ; of Belgium, virtually reduced to the condi tion-of a province of France, by means of the Anglo- Gallic convention ; of Holland, our old ally and best customer, alienated by our infamous attack upon the Dutch King's subjects, and the British flag dis honoured by a,pompous but abortive naval demonstra ion in the North Seas, in the season of fogs and storms ; of Spain, precipitated into political anarchy by the consequences of the Quadrupartite Treaty, which was entered into, not to protect British interests, not to obtain any advantages for British commerce, not to enforce or succour the viola Ted rights of humanity, but merely and solely to secure and extend the influence of the crafty and perfidious King o f the French and his Doct r i na i re G overnmen t in Spain, as we said all along ?—a truth which the creatures of the Ministry now indirectly acknowledge, by stating that, since th.; aovn-ifall of the wutched fit Ste milieu s:, - ,:tem, the British infitieriCe and that of Prance have become antagonist powers in Spain. Need we finally remind the public of the height of insolent dictation to which the Aurocrat of Russia has arrived in Eng land since the Whigs came into office—the subjugation of Turkey, the virtual delivery of that empire into the hands of the Muscovite conqueror by the treaty of Hunkiar Skelessi, and all the humiliation which, in consequence, the British flag has had to sustain in the waters of the East ? Yet a late repentance is better than none, and even if the Whigs, at this late hour, were to repent of the errors of their foreirn». policy, and do something worthy of 1 . ) .*;,; name of England, to wipe out the disgrace of past offences, we would be among tilt first to give them credit for the good, as we have not been among the last to censure them for the mischiefs of their policy. But what can be expected of the rulers of a great nation— so lost to all sense of political, moral, and even per sonal dignity—so mean, abject, and mindless, as to prostrate themselves before the coarse-minded and pro fligate demagogue of Ireland, and offer to sacrifice the noblest institutions of the country as the proof of their humiliation, and the price of his support ? In refe rence to our foreign policy, our able and intelligent correspondent at Toplitz thus writes—" Now is the hour for England to speak out. Indeed, she - Lould have done so in July, 1833, and cou.'"ered the treaty of Hunkiar Skelessi as a dv.els!:;"ation of war ; but our Ministers, who were tin asleep, are now awake, and I have reason tr! know that Lord Palmerston has lately assumed s!.. tone worthy of the nation he has the honor to rnresent." If our correspondent be correctly in formed on this point, we shall rejoice to find that our remonstrances on behalf of the insulted honour and neglected interests of England have had some effect. If Lord Durham be allowed to sail through the Bos phorus to Odessa in the Barham frigate, we shall begin to think we have induced Lord Palmerston at last to speak out. We wait the proofs.—Morning Herald. We have at last reached the beginning of the end. The great crisis of this nation's fate, so long foreseen and so often foretold, has arrived. We are now in its midst. Hitherto all has gone well, and the aspect of matters at this moment is as cheering, as full of bright hopes, as the warmest friend of his countiy could desire. Wq 'never doubted for a moment what would be the eventual issue ; but we frankly own we had out rears and our misgivings lest the complete triumph of a nation's rights might not be achieved without the most painful sacrifices. We knew the people of this country were determined to rescue them selves utterly, and for ever, and at any price, from the iron grasp of a handful of titled despots ; but we also knew that the latter had been accustomed for a long series of years to regard the people as no better than mere serfs, whose entire subserviency to their own will , they had a right to command at any time, and under all circumstances—on the Duke of Newcastle's prin ciple—we thank his Dukeship for so candid an avowal of his sentiments—that they had a right to do what they pleased with their own. And thus knowing the determination of the people, on the one hand, to work out their own salvation---and on the other, the obsti nacy, ignorance, and infatuation of the oligarchical faction, who had hitherto lorded it over them—we feared that the process of England's emancipation would not be completed without having recourse to means the use of which nothing but the direst neces sity can justify, and which, under any circumstances, cannot be contemplated without pain. Hitherto our fears have been happily disappointed ; and judging from the present aspect of affairs, they will prove to have been as groundless as regards the future. Already do the hearts of our aristocratic enemies begin to fail them ; they begin to quail at the position into which they have, in the plenitude of their recklessness and folly, placed [themselves. There are symptoms among them of a disposition to retreat from the conflict which they themselves have provoked, and to leave the people masters of the field. Are we asked for proofs ? They are to be found in abundance in the events of the last six weeks. For a time the Lords played the, 'part of a Bobadil with regard to the Corporation. Reform Bill. They threatened to kick it as unceremoniously out of the House as the man in the 'Ad song, so often quoted by Canning, kicked his wife down stairs. But, as in the case of other bullies, all their " prodigious" courage, as Dominie Sampson would have said, evaporated when the moment had arrived for carrying their threats into execution. They did just as much injury to the Bill as they thought might be done without exposing their order to immediate danger—just as much as showed that the disposition to mischief was as vigorous in their Lordships' breasts as ever. It was clear that they we.., only restrained from more seriously damaging the measure by considerations of discretion, which they at last, with -Falstqll; begin to see to be the " better part of valour." Then, again, there was to be the ejection of the Melbourne Ministry, and the resumption by themselves of the functions of Govern ment. The threat sounded well in words. But what has become of the execution ? Arc Lord Melbourne and his colleagues out ? Are the Tories in ? Not yet. Is it that the pear is not yet quite ripe ? When then,, is it likely to be ? Not, we presume, for some time to come. See another proof of shrinking from any further contest with the people, on the part of the Tory Lords, in the altered conduct of the King to his present Ministers. Who was it that injected so much poison into the royal ear against Lord Melbourne and his colleagues, that their presence at Windsor was deemed an infliction of the first magnitude ? The titled Tories. And why have they ceased to prejudice the King against his responsible advisers ? Why relinquish the dishonourable avocation and misrepresentation and calumny at the Castle ? Because they see the game is all up with them. Because they have given up the last forlorn hope to which they had so long clung with a desperate tenacity of being able to subdue the peo ple, P.:nd again seize the reins of Government them , s'.,ives. The conviction has at last flashed on them that the Upper House is doomed. To extinction ? We hope not. There is no necessity for that. A thorough reform will suffice. The people seek no thing more. Give us a House of Lords in harmony with the House of Commons, and with the spirit of the age, and the. Upper House may yet have a pro longed existence. It will 'only be in the event of resistence to such a reform being offered in a quar ter which shall be nameless, that the alternative of annihilation will become necessary. T ie question of—What is to be done with the Lords ?—will be settled next Sesg'":;n. Which of the alternatives—reform, or ex l ltiction to be adopted—will depend entirely on ' 1 :;e manner in which the moderate, though firin., `remands of the people, will be met. In /he mnntime, let the people understand one another. Let the same unity of purpose, which has directed all their efforts for the last twelve months, continue to guide them. In their union is their safety. It is their union which so signally triumphed over Tory machi nation and Tory mendacity during the last eventful Session, and it is by the same union that they can not only sustain the advantageous position they now oc cupy, but eventually and by peaceable means ensure complete victory. Ought not the people forthwith to meet together to form associations in all parts of the country, for the purpose of deciding on what extent of reform of the Lords is necessary, and of adopting the best means to secure most speedily and peaceably that great object ? The interval between this and the next meeting of Parliament will not be long, and it ought to be diligently employed.—Morning Advertiser. EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.•—•OII SUR-. day morning, when the crew of the Pylades, C omman d er Castles, was being mustered, Mr. Liddle, the clerk in charge, recognised the man who ran away from the Ed en , w h n under the command of Captain Owen, in 1831, taking with him one of the ship's boats and a quantity of arms and am munition. He was subsequently taken prisoner, and brought home to be tried, but while on board a vessel in Portsmouth harbour he contrived to make his escape, and, as it now appears, entered himself on board the Spartiate on her being fitted out. He was recently paid off from the Spar tiate, in which ship he had sailed four years, and he has ex cellent certificates of character as an able seaman. On being recognised, the unfortunate fellow confessed he was the man, and immediately acknowledged his name to be Reid, the same as he stood on the Eden's books. He was immediately put under arrest, and now awaits orders from the Admiralty as to his disposal.—Devonport Telegraph.

(From the London New Price Current of this evening.) &MAR.—The Sugar market has been exceedingly heavy all the week; the buyers only purchase for their immediate wants on the most confined scale, and as usual in dull markets here and there a shade lower, but no general reduction in the prices can be stated. The estimated purchases for the week are 1,500 hhds. and trs. ; 655. 6d. paid for fine Muscovades, and at the close of the Market there was a firmer appearance and a greater disposition to do business. In Refined there is no business to report; the shippers do not appear much at market, and the few sales are to the grocers for the home consumption, and in very limited parcels. The Refiners this afternnon have rather taken alarm at the dull state of the trade, and the consequent accumulation of the goods in the warehouses, and are inclined to take lower prices -41s. for fine Crashed ; the general quotation 83s. for the long, and 425. the short price ; all other goods also at ra ther lower prices. MAURITIUS.—There are no sales to report; two vessels, with about 9,800 bags, the remnant of last season's crop, are re ported at the Custom-house. EAST INDIA.-There has been several sales of Bengal and Java Sugars, the former are Bs. to ls. 6d. lower, good white' 365., damp ow to good white 325. to 355.; the brown Java also sold rather lower, the other qualities former prices. FORZIGN.-There continue to be considerable sales of yel low Havannah Sugar, 365. and 375.; no white appear at mar ket. At public sale yellowish white Bahia, 38s. 6d. to 395. 6d., grey, 345. 6d., being 2s. to 2s. 6d. higher. This day 60 boxes white Havannah and 81 chests 42 bar rels Bahia were for the first time advertised this forenoon, and sold at twelve o'clock ; the fine white Havannah were taken in at 505., valued at 535. ; the Bahia low brown to low greyish white part sold 255. 6d. to 335., about 2s. to 3s. lower. MOLASSES.-There are still inquiries after Molasses; more sales of good Antigua at 285., and of St. Vincent's about 275. COFFEIL -Mete is little alteration in the prices of Coffee ; the British Plantation have been offered in rather large par cels, chiefly Jamaica, with email lets of Dominica, Grenada, and St. Lucia, whichl went off at very full prices. There has been no chang n East India, Ceylon 655. for good quality. The late sales of Foreign are at former rates, 56t. for coloury Brazil, and for St. Domingo ord. mixed dingy 51s. to 535., good ord. mixed 535. 6d. to 545. 6d., coloury 555. and 565. 6d. By private contract, 2,000 bags Ceylon Coffee reported sold at 625., which is 2s. lower ; 300 bags Samarang at 495. 6d. and 50s. By public sale this day, 2,298 bags Brazil., ord. 525. 6d. a 535., partly sold, the quality was inferior, the prices fair market rates ; 93 casks St. Domingo, from Bordeaux, good ord. pale, 545. a 545. 6d., former rates ; 108 bales Mocha, 665. a 845., taken in ; 29 casks, 180 bags Cuba, unclean, 58s. a 655., taken in. The inferior qualities of British Plantation are ra ther higner. • TALLow.--The Tallow market is very heavy, and the pri ces both on the spot and for forward delivery must be quoted Is. lower • the contracts for arrival lately are very limited, and entirely on speculation ; the trade will not purchase at the present prices, except in small parcels for immediate consump tion. SlLX.—There is but little business doing in Silk, but the prices are very firm. SALTPETRE.—By public sale 3,788 bags sold at full market prices, and in some instances 3d. to 6d. per cwt. higher, low dingy 404 refraction 225. to 225. 6d., fair quality and refrac tion 21 to 7 lbs. 25s to 26. ; British Refined in much demand, 345. in barrels, 30s. 6d. in hhds. TEA.—The sale to take place on the 13th October contains about 60,000 packages, and the trade appears to be engrossed so much in the inspection of them that the market in the meantime is neglected, and the transactions too few to alter our quotations. Otts.—Therc have been no accounts received from the Straits' fisheries; the Market is, in consequence, without any alteration. The prices are nearly nominal. INntoo.—The Market keeps firm, in the face of the large plea on the 20th inst. Above one half have been examined, and thtrt tippeafs a larger proportion than usual of the good consuming qualities, ranging from 4s. 6d. to ss. 3d. per lb., valued at July's sale prices. CocoA.—The late sales are about is. per cwt. higher, fair reddish Grenada 465. to 475. 6d., god 48s. to 495. ; fine this day b 25. N. to big, RPM, BRANDY, AND 140LLAND3......The Rum mart has been exceedingly heavy, on account of the accumulation of . the stock, and more arrivals, which are not yet landed ; the offers are id. to id. per gallon lower, and fine qualities are offered at a greater reduction, but there is little disposition to do business. Brandy is more enquired after. Geneva without alteration. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. Yesterday William Thomas Lacy, a genteelly dressed young man , who said that he was a " tail or ," was c h a rged on suspicion of being concerned in a l a t e ex t ens i ve ro bb er y o f plate, committed at the house of Dr. Evans at Hamp stead. Inspector Aggs, of the S division, stated that about six wee ks ago the house of Dr. Evans was entered at night by thieves, and upwards o f 2001. worth of plate carried ofd A man named Henry Edwards , wlio had formerly lived in the family as footma.n, was aprehended the next dy, and ta k en before a Magistrate, when the ev id ence wa s so a strong v a inst him that he was committed to Newgate, tried, con •:" and sentenced to transportation for life. Shortly 'tness found out that Edwards h a d b een l o dging with at No. S, West Row,Carnaby Market. He went after a young 17,y. there and sti* thC prisoner, who, on being r►skcd what had become of Henry, said hg did not know, as he had been absent some days. Seeing nothing, then; for taking the prisoner into custody, he went away. On.the 'previous day, however, he received a letter from a person he should not then name, informing him that the prisoner was implica ted, and took an active part in the robbery ; and he accor dingly repaired to his lodgings and apprehended him. The prisoner declared his innocence, and called several master tailors for whom he had worked, who gave him an excellent character. _ . _ Mr. HOSKINS ordered the prisoner to be remanded. CHARING-CROSS HOSPITAL. SESSION OF 1835-6. Yesterday Mr. Pettigrew delivered the general introduc tory address of lecture to a very numerous class of practi cal men and ptudents in the medical and surgical branches of this establiSlittiditf, : The Profess Of C9mrnenced by stat ing that he undertook this onerdiii thrty in Outage to the wishes of his colleagues, and then proceeded td show that, to quality a youth fir the exercise of a profession so im portant to mankind, d titeAdviS liberal education is quite necessary ; without it he wottid not be likely to avail him self of the advantages opened to him, of id tit able to exer cise his prokssion to the extent which medical and surgi cal scictice not* allots. A Competent knowledge of the Latin, Greek, and Otter languages will make him readily comprehend the scientific terms used in his profession, and facilitate his progreSs ; but to be highly skilled in those languages Is not requisite, though the effect of classical dis cipline in enlarging acid enriching the mind, will more highly qualify the student for the exercise of a liberal pro fession, and open to him numerous sources of mental pleasure ; but the senses, not the imagination, must be actively exercised, the memory must be assiduously cul tivated, and clear ideas obtained of objects and names. That great genius Hunter did not disdain the most pa tient labour, and collected an immense mass of facts illustrative of every branch of his profession ; yet he did not possess high classical attainments. In each profes sion there are particular principles essential to success ; and the sooner the proper discipline is commenced, the sooner will it. become easy and habitual. The exercise of the me mory in the medical profession; depending on the conneeti‘;'n I between cause and effect, is most desirable to promote the cultivation of science and the acquirement of sound know ledge. Having stated the necessity of a liberal education, the professor proceeded to take a view of the various sciences connected with the profession, and the order of their attainment. Anatomy he described as being " the basis" of all medical education, whether of a physician, surgeon, or general practitioner, and is justly entitled to a pre-eminence, as it displays the most profound wisdom, and exalts us to the contemplation of the Divine Author of our nature. The diversity of structure in the human frame, and the various means by which certain ends are effected—the exalted position of man in the scale of creation--the variety and proportion of diseases which his complex and highly en dowed organization expose him to, tender the study of the human frame, in health, a matter of the very first importance ; and for this purpose every facilitynow exists legally, and the former clandestine practices are banished for ever. Physio logy next demonstrates the adaptation of the structure and those properties to the functions which the several parts have to perform, and traces the influence upon which they depend for their just and proper action, &c. Again, a knowledge of the human structure in a state of health qualifies for de tecting its deviations under disorder. This is the object of pathology. To remedy those diseases, nature has bountifully supplied us with various means, especially in the vegetable and mineral kingdoms ; botany and chemistry are, there fore, the next steps in professional knowledge, either as to articles of the Materia Medica, or as to the properties of food. The labours of chemistry, in particular, have intro duced a number of the most powerful antidotes to disease. The practice of medicine the Professor divided into two parts, first, that which relates to the preservation of health ; and, secondly, the cure of disease - ; these are the objects of the physician. To excel in these, we have the authority of Dr. Gregory for saying, that a greater compass of learning is necessary than in any other profession ; hence' its distin guished professors have been highly respected in all ages and nations. Pope, Dr. Johnson, and Dr. Parr have borne testimony to their talents and virtues. Morbid anatomy and the practice of medicine, the Professor stated, may do much, by pointing out the changes of structure and their characteristic symptoms during life. Clinical lectures will be delivered on every case now that is worthy of attention, •to the pupils of the hospital, and the attendance of the latter at the bedside of the patient is considered the most important of all things to qua lify the pupil for practice. He also called their attention to the regular system of consultation at this hospital on all difficult cases, which are attended by every officer of the es tablishment, surgical-and medical, and from which the most beneficial results have arisen. The Professor also alluded in handsome but delicate terms to the great services rendered to this institution in a personal and pecuniary sense by its worthy Governor, Dr. Golding. On the importance of forensic medicine, the Professor dilated with much truth and propriety, and stated that everything would be done to promote this recent but excellent aid to our Courts of Cri minal Law in the protection of innocence and the elucida tion of truth. He also mentioned that a library is now forming within the walls for the advantage of the students. The museum also has, it appears, received several fine ac quisitions, and a chemical laboratory is in progress of com pletion. We regret much that our space will not allow us to go at greater length into the various topics upon which the Professor dilated with much feeling and eloquence. The lecture was given in the new theatre, which will hold nearly 200 persons. It is very nicely fitted up ; and over the Professor's chair, in a niche, is placed an excellent bust of Dr. Golding, by C. Moore. It is an admirable likeness; and a good work of art. It is placed there as a token of esteem by the Professors, &c., for Dr. Golding. MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGIS- TRATES. COUNTY DAY. There was a very numerous attendance of Justices yes terday, at Hicks's Hall, principally occasioned by those in terested in the re-election of Benjamin Rotch, Esq., as Chairman. Colonel CLITHEROW was voted into the• Chair pro ten;. ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN. The first 'notice on the paper was read as follows :—" To elect a Chairman until the county day of next February Ses sion.—With reference to this matter, Robert M'William, Esq., has given notice—' That if Benjamin Rotch, the younger, Esq., should be proposed for re-election, he should oppose the motion.' " Sir C. FORBES, Bart., proposed that Benjamin Rotch, Jun., Esq., be re-appointed to the office of Chairman of that Session he had so long and honourably presided over. —(Loud . eries of " Hear, hear.") Mr. EYKIN and Mr. OR ME rose to second the motion ; and the latter gentleman giving way, the former said, " I most cordially second it." Mr. 111' WILLIAM opposed the motion, pursuant to notice. Colonel CLIT lIEROW then put the motion that Mr. Rotch be elected Chairman ; which was carried unanimously, every hand being at once raised but that of Mr. 111‘ William. _ Mr. ROzcn was then introduced, and took his scat as Chairman, amidst the greeting of his friends. ASSESSMENT OF GOVERNMENT OFFICES. Mr. Allen informed the Court he had received a letter from Mr. Stewart, Under Secretary of the Treasury. The Committee of Accounts and General Purposes re ported thereon that they " have taken into consideration the two letters from Sir George Clerk and E. J. Stanley, Esqrs., Secretaries of the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, to Sir Robert Baker, the County Treasurer, re lative to the several extra-parochial Government offices, in Westminster, being assessable to the county rate, and your Committee recommend that previous to making the return of rental of St. Margaret's parish to the ensuing Michael mas Quarter Session, a notice be given to the church wardens add overseers that special inquiry will be mado by the Session whether the several places undermentioned are or are not assessed to the poor rate of that parish, and a s imilar notice to the parish officers of St. Martin-in-the- Fields, as to any part of the Horse Guards lying in that parish." The following are the buildings and premises :—The Home Department Office, the Treasury Chambers, the Board of Trade Office, the Council Office, Whitehall Chapel, the Comptroller of Army Account's Office, the Exchequer Seal Office, the Civil List Audit Office, the Ezl Marshal's Office, the Horse Guards. Th e !natter at issue was referred back, and the report agreed to. STATE OF THE PRISONS—THE SILENT SYSTEM. The report of the Visiting Judges as to the House of Correction was read. In the prison there are 571 male convicts, 228 female, and 11 children, of which number 157 males and 22 fe males are reputed thieves and vagrants. They were all generally orderly and healthy. Mr. LAURIE inquired if the silent system injured the health or minds of the prisoners—the public mind bad been much excited on the subject ? Mr. Chesterton, the Governor, answered—" Not in the slightest." Mr. LAURIE—Does the surgeon agree in that opinion ? Mr. Chesterton—Yes, Sir ; even those prisoners ad judged to 12 and 18 months' confinement are well. A special report was next read, setting forth new prison rules and regulations for the better or more strict enforce ment of the silent system. The principal rules were that any prisoner speaking day or night, whistling, sinning, ma king any gesture or sign, looking any way than before him, selling in; provision, bartering, &c., should, for the first • ol'ence, have one meal, or a part thereof, stopped ; tb ab for the second there should be a further decrease of alio' ance, and for continued repetition solitary confinceneut c p bread and water, and such further punishment as the Ac t provided. The turnkeys were restricted from all farailie conversation with the prisoners or their friends, and not al . * lowed to introduce tobacco or any other artic les : they we r 6 .also forbidden to speak with discharged convicio. Sir C. Forums had doubts as to the legality of cser cising so great a power, or vesting it in t he hands o f tile • Governor. Ho wished to know whether the silent .syste'll acted equally well with the femalos.—( Laughter.) Mr. Chesterton—Yes, Sir.
