~ , taxes which pressed on them in particular. The Noble Lord had spoken of the effect of foreign competition as injurious to the agriculture of this country, and had instanced butter. Did le. not know that there Is as a protecting duty of 20s. per cwt. cn butter, and a protecting duty on seeds also ? He ( Mr. S. Rice) held in his hand, a list of articles protected, whether isely or unwisely, by i m p or t d u ti es . It i nc l u d e d b acon , bark, beer, cider, cheese, hay, hides, lard, horses, oil-cakes, and various other articles. Looking to the amount of tax ation which the land bore at present in proportion to the ag gregate taxation, it would be found that it bore a less share than formerly. In the reign of William 111. the whole amount ef the revenue was 48,000,0001., out of which 19,000,0001. was raised by the land-tax alone, the other branches of taxation producing 29,000,0001. ; so that two-fifths of the whole consisted of the land -tax, which was infinitely more than its present proportion. In the reign of Queen Anne the amount of the taxes was 62,000,0001. ; that of the land tax 21,000,000/. In the reign of George I. the amount of the taxes was 56,000,000/. ; that of the land-tax 18,000,0001. In George I l.'s reign the total taxation was 216,000,0001. ; out of which 49,000,0001. was produced by the land-tax. Therefore the agriculturists of the present day, if they compared their situation with that of the agriculturists in the reigns to the revolution of George 111., would find that the proportion contributed by the land at present was less than it had contributed at any one of those antecedent periods. He would now address a few words to the Right lion. Baronet en the subject of the expenses of criminal prosecutions. If it was considered to be the duty of the State to take upon itself the expense of the whole of the criminal prosecutions, the first step should be to act in connexion with the local autho rities, in order to have the benefit of a local check, rather than to undertake at once the" entire charge. If half the expense of criminal prosecutions were borne at first, sufficient expe rience might be gained to allow of a plan being proposed to Parliament to establish an efficient check instead of a local one. If, however, the Government took upon itself the entire expense, there must be the further expense of local auditors, for the administration and control of the expenses. With re spect to the conveyance of prisoners, the Right Hon. Baronet was right ; the measure ought to have keen adopted before; for the duty belonged to the Government, and not to the county where sentence was pronounced, to remove the convict. In respect to one of the charges which had not been adverted to, he dissented from the recommendation of the Committee —namely, that the House should pay the expenses of all Parlia mentary returns. If the House should undertake these expenses, he ( Mr. S. R.) prophesied that every return it called for in future from any department not under Government would be made a matter of money speculation. He would tell the Noble Lord why he could not agree to relieve some parts of the country from the window-tax. He had already stated that the farm• ing interest had received relief in assessed taxes to the amount of upwards of 900,0001. But if the Noble Lord called for the reduction of any such small amount of taxation remaining with what fairness could he (Mr. Rice) resist a motion for the repeal of the tax in towns and other places ? Nothing could be more calculated than a partial repeal of the tax to raise an outcry against the agricultural interest, which it was not its policy to invite. The amount of the window-tax was 1,200,000/. ; and out of 2,846,000 inhabited houses in Great Britain only 377,000 paid a window-tax at all ; 1,100,000 cot tages were exempt. If the Noble lord said that this part of the tax, which was paid not by the poor farmer but by the rich far mer, ought to be repealed, he would do a greater evil to the agri cultural interest than the remission of ten-fold the amount of tax - taxation would do- good.—( Hear.) As far as the present Ministry were able, they would give all practicable relief to agri culture, but this object could not be forwarded by holding out that the House or the Crown was indifferent on the subject, when the political connexions of the Noble Lord told him there could be no relief ; but he should come forward with some definite proposition. One recommendation of the Committee was, that a Commission should issue to inquire into the ex penses of prosecutions, the fees of counsel, and other mat ters. That Commission had been appointed in November last under Lord Melbourne's Government ; it had carried on its inquiries, and its report would soon be before the House, when the House would be in a better condition to legislate on the subject. He therefore objected to the Noble Lord's Reso lutions, so far as they were premature, and so far as they were indefinite; but let the Noble Lord come forward with a pro position respecting the window-tax, or the duty on horses, and he would meet it; but he would not meet it as a general re solution. He could not agree to an address to the Crown, for it presumed that some interposition was necessary to induce Ministers to propose a measure calculated for the relief of the agricultural interest. On the contrary, they were anxious to propose any such measure, but he saw reason to adhere to the report of the Committee, and no reason to agree to any unde fined resolutions, which might pledge the finances of the country to concessions which they were not able to bear. Sir C. BURRELL rose amidst loud cries of " Divide," " Question." He trusted the Noble Lord opposite did not rely upon the operation of the Poor Law Amendment Act as the means of providing employment for the unemployed agri cultural population, for he was satisfied that unless that measure underwent considerable alterations, so as to enable parishes to counteract the obstinacy of one or two individuals, it would entirely fail in its object in this respect.—( Cries of "Divide," " Question.") His sincere opinion was, that the evil consisted in the currency system of the country, which, if not altered in some safe and considerate manner, would, in the end, not only be destructive to the lauded interests of the country, but also to the fundholders themselves.—( Renewed cries of " Divide.") _ _ Colonel SIBTHORP agreed in the opinion expressed by the Hon. Member for Oldham, that unless something was speedily done for the agriculturist, a convulsion must be the result, and he was satisfied that the relief most worthy of con sideration, as best calculated to save the arrricultural interest, was the introduction of a silver standard of currency.—( Loud cries of " Question.") Mr. O'CONNELL could not avoid reminding the House of two facts which had been wholly forgotten throughout the present discussion. The first fact was, that there was such a place as Ireland, of which in this instance, a total forgetfulness prevailed—(hear, hear)—and the next was, that in Ireland agricultural distress was as great, if not greater, than in this country. The resolutions, however, promised not one word of relief to Ireland ; and as for what the Noble Lord opposite (the Marquis of Chandos) suggested as relief to the English agriculturists, it amounted to nothing more than, as it were, the paring of a corn, or the curing of a sore finger. For both countries there was in this respect but one real remedy, and that was the mitigation of the horrors of the Gold Circula tion Bill.—( Hear, hear.) For his part, he saw no great dif ference between the resolutions and the amendment, at the same time he thought the latter more practicable. He must, however, reiterate that the distresses of the Irish agriculturists were in both wholly forgotten.—( Loud cries of " Divide.") The Marquis of C HAND 0 S replied. He had never an ticipated the possibility of being able to please both parties in the terms of a motion like the present, but he should feel it to be his bounden duty to put the present question to the vote of the House to-night. When he had submitted his motion for the repeal of the malt-tax, as a means of agricultural re lief, he had been met with the declaration that such a mea sure would ruin the country in a week ; he had been quarrelled with on that occasion, because his motion was too specific, and now, when he submitted a more general motion, which last year had been defeated only by a majority of sixteen, he was told that it was too general, and the proposition of agricultu ral relief ought to be more specific. He had but one duty to perform to his constituents and the country at large, and what ever might be the result of the present motion, he should leave the House with the consciousness that he had done his best to discharge that duty. He regretted that some of those who before had supported him, had manifested an inclination to withdraw that support on the present occasion. If he should be defeated, he should now deplore it, because it would manifest the impossibility of making an impression on this House favourable to the farmers of this country. The House then divided, when there appeared— • For the Resolutions For the Amendment 2ll Majority ......... COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. On the motion of Mr. SHARMAN CR.

Eaton was employed in a well, 30 feet deep, at Boreham, Hertford, a large portion of the brickwork gave way, and buried him. The bricks fortunately formed a sort of arch over him, leaving a small aperture to admit the air. His deliverance was effected after he had been buried alive for more than ten hours. He had received no set-ions injury. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 26, 1835. The petition of Mr. CHILDS was presented to the House of Commons last night by Mr. HUNIE, and gave rise, as our readers will perceive, to one of the most important debates which have taken place this session. Mr. HUNIE, in a clear and forcible speech, detailed the arbitrary and cruel treatment to which Mr. CHILDS had been subjected, and called the attention of the House to the necessity of an immediate aboli- tion of Church Rates. The only person who could be found in the House capable of vindicating the op pressive proceedings of the Church authorities of Bun gay was a Mr. F. KELLY. This Hon. Gentleman, who seems not to be altogether free from a certain muddiness of understanding—a sort of haziness of the intellectual faculties declaimed lustily against Mr. CHILDS for having " evaded the law, and made his petition the vehicle of unfounded and cowardly calumnies." We perfectly agree with this gentleman, that nothing can be more cowardly, nothing more base, than for a man to avail himself of ally privilege he may possess, whether that of petitioning the Legislature or of sitting in judgment on the petitions of others, for the purpose of calumny ; and we assure him we will willingly co-operate with him in holding up such a character to that public hatred and contempt which he so justly merits. But how does Mr. K. prove his charge of calumny The first passage he quotes from the petition is the following :—" The Petitioner therefore prays your Honourable House to take measures for the im mediate abolition of the barbarous and anomalous powers of the Ecclesiastical Court." The House saw no calumny in this, and loudly cheered the speaker, who then discovered that he was not disposed to com plain of any language, however strong, which Hon. Members might use upon the state of the law. The sentiment at which he was horrified was contained in the words " that the law was capable of being em ployed, as in the present case, to effect the worst pur poses and gratify the rancour of religiouS intolerance." Now the first of these propositions nobody—not even Mr. KELLY—can doubt, and the second is fully warranted by the whole tenor of the proceedings in this case. The religious intolerance, however, is not charged upon Archdeacon GLOVER. We at least have never imputed the least blame to him, nor have we heard his name mentioned as connected with this transaction, but with honour. He interfered as a peace-maker—a character becoming a Minister of the Gospel of Peace. . _ _ The statement of the tumult which is said to have taken place at the sale of Mr. MORRIS goods, is quite incorrect. There was, and could be, no tumult at the sale, because it was private. The Churchwardens might have taken Mr. CHILDS' goods if they had been so disposed, and their resorting, to the Ecclesiastical Court, with all its severities, can not be imputed to any other motives than the gratifi cation of a persecuting spirit. It may appear to Mr. KELLY a most presumptuous thins ; in any man " to set his sernplcs of conscience above the powers of the law ;" but he must be told that the Legislator who attempts to make or to maintain laws oppressive to the consciences of men, has not yet learnt the elements of his profession. • In the progress of the debate, Lord JOHN Rus- SELL stated that the Government intended not to introduce any measure this Session for the abolition of Church Rates, or any other Dissenting grievance, as their whole attention would be devoted to the two great measures of Corporation Reform and the Re form of the Irish Church. In the propriety of this we perfectly agree, and the more readily as we gather from Lord JOHN'S speech that the entire abolition is not contemplated—a resolution on the part of the Government, which we hope they will re-consider,'for it will be anything but satisfactory to the country. But let us once get Corporation Reform, and we have full confidence In the liberality of the Government. The distresti of the agriculturists was last night made the subject of a motion by Lord CHANDOS, for `he discussion on which we must refer our readers to the debate. Want of room compels us to postpone our own observations on this question till to-morrow. The Earl of RODEN again brought forward the subject of the late Dublin procession last night in the House of Lords, expressly declaring however—being doubtless somewhat crest-fallen by the defeat he re ceived at the hands of Lord MELBOURNE on Friday last—that " he did not wish to call for punishment on the individuals who took a part in the late procession" (compassionate Peer !)—" he only rose to put in a .Maim to impunity for another class, of very different principles, and to express a hope that if, hereafter, the loyal Protestants of Ireland, as was their custom, In th:ir Au) aity to the KING, and their attachment to the principles which placed the present family on the throne of this realm, they should not be punished under a law which it was DOW refused to enforce." This " claim to impunity," as his Lordship discreetly calls it, is mere humbug ; for what Government would ever dream of punishing Pro testants for showing " their loyalty to the KING ?" But attachment to Majesty, and attachment to intoler ance are two very different matters ; and this last is the only demonstration by which the Irish Orangemen have ever signalized themselves in their July processions. Their loyalty never was, and never will be, to the KING, as the impartial ruler of the people ; but as the prejudiced head of a faction. So long, for instance, as GEORGE the FOURTH countenanced the principle of Protestant ascendancy, who so enlightened—who so illustrious a Monarch in the eyes of the Irish Orangemen—who so loudly cheered at their processions, and toasted at their festivals ? When, however, his M4JESTY was compelled from circumstances to throw the ascendancy principle overboard, by granting Emancipation, who so lost to all sense of justice and prudence—so fallen from " his high estate," as this same SOVEREIGN, whom the Orangemen had before looked on as a sort of demi-deity ? With his present MAJESTY the case has been precisely the same. So long as he encou raged the Councils of a Conservative Cabinet, so long was he the Orangeman's idol ; but now that he has called in a Reform Ministry, we hear nothing but the language of complaint—respectfully subdued indeed, but significant enough, notwithstanding—from these red-hot ascendancy-men. Away, then, with the Earl of RODEN'S boast of an Irish Protestant's loyalty He is loyal only to his own party. Mr. KENNEDY'S resignation of 'Tiverton in favour of Lord PALMERSTON, is a handsome set-off against his vote on the Repeal of the Union. There he com mitted a glaring folly. Here he has redeemed himself. Of course the Opposition Journals are in arms against the Hon. Member's resignation. It is "an amiable subserviency to the wishes of Government," quoth the Morning Post, and then proceeds to crack a joke, none the better, for having been penned by Mr. PRAED. However, subserviency or no subserviency—for really the matter is not worth discussing—Mr. KEN NEDY deserves no slight praise for the apparent good feeling that has prompted the surrender of his seat. Through his means the country will again reap the benefit of Lord PALNfERSTON'S services ; and what ever objections may be raised to some branches of his Lordship's foreign policy, still when it is borne in mind that he kept England—and through England, Europe—in a state of tranquillity for upwards of four years, when his opponents, one and all, declared that it would be a miracle if he preserved peace for as many months, it is impossible to deny that his policy, on the whole, has been of the greatest advantage to the country. At the present crisis we need his Lordship's services more than ever. France is in a most feverish state; Spain is convulsed in every limb, nerve, and joint ; and nothing but the precautionary measures of a Peace Minister can prevent us from imbibing, in some degree, the Continental epidemic. Our Contemporary, to whom we have before alluded, gives Mr. KENNEDY no praise for the disinterested sacrifice of his seat, but hints that he has been in duced to make it, in the hope thereby of getting a snug birth under Government. Such an insinuation is quite a matter of course with our Contemporary, whom we believe to be equally incapable of conceiving a better motive, or inventing a worse. We are glad to perceive that it is the intention of Mr. Fox MAULE to introduce a Bill, with the sanc tion of his Majesty's Ministers, to abolish the various Turnpike Trusts within a radius of ten miles of the metropolis, and to substitute a rate on the parishes through which the various roads pass. This contem plated amelioration of the old vexatious system of pro viding the " means" for the " ways," like all other improvements, will, of course, be opposed by a host of " vested interests," jobbers, contractors, and lizfjus generic onznes. There are however, we apprehend, few persons to whom the eternally recurring inconve nience of the toll bars, and the insolence of the keepers, is not too familiar. We cannot stir a step, without being exposed to delay and insult ; and if we are lucky enough to escape those usual inflictions, we never can at any time, in any way, or under any cir cumstances whatever, be free from the annoyance of first taking the ticket, then producing it at this bar, then at that—now taking another ticket, on another tiust—and another, and another—alternately classify ing and arranging them, to the end of the journey. Then, OW tinne return, the same process of Te-prodne tion, at every gate on the road, must be undergone— the rain, perhaps, all the while descending in tor rents, and the horses rendered unmanageable by so many checks at the gates. No person, of course, would have any right to com plain of the inconvenience if it were inseparable from, and consistent with the general good. But the present system is, to the full, as prejudicial to the public in terests, as contrary to the public convenience. The proposition to make a parochial road-rate contains the elements of sound policy and equal taxation ; and those who may oppose it will, we are persuaded, do so only because they know not what they do, and are ignorant of the principles of national taxation. We trust that the parishes which may be affected by the Bill in con templation, will discard all petty parochial narrow views, and be prepared, in an enlightened spirit, cor dially to welcome a meritire of rrartirll I , rnoqt, the of which will, in r ea l i t y , f a ll equal l y on all classes of the community. Yesterday Lord PALMERSTON was waited upon by Mr. RICA RDO, the Contractor for the Spanish Loan, in order that the public might learn if the British Go vernment had received any recent despatches from Spain, which would justify the impression that Don CARLos was likely to overcome the QUEEN'S forces. Mr. RICARDO added that he was induced to apply for information to the Government, in consequence of ru mours having been set afloat, to the effect that Don CA RLOS had recently obtained signal victories over the QUEEN'S Generals. Lord PALMERSTON assured Mr. It tcAnno, and the gentlemen who accom panied him, that the dispatches received by the Go vernment did not contain a syllable which went to cor roborate these idle rumours. On the contrary, his Lordship was assured that the QUEEN'S cause was to all appearance as triumphant now as it had been far seve ral weeks. This announcement was made on 'Change, just before it closed yesterday, and the consequence is l'ltic i.. 5 51 - 51 . 0Clis THIS DAY AT ONE O'COLC-K Sank Stock ;per Cent. tied. 901 4 14 India Stock - ; ; - 257;:, t p-. 71 (cot.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1835, that the funds have riser this morning, as will be seen by a reference to our city article. But, why we ask, did not Mr. R ICA RDo take an earlier opportunity of waiting on Lord YALMERSTON ? Why did he wait till, as we are informed, certain individuals were literally robbed to the amount of sums, varying from twenty to fifty thousand pounds, by the unprincipled conduct of a set of well-known stock-jobbers, who are a disgrace to the body to which they belong ? The time to pro pose questions to the Foreign • Secretary was the mo ment the reports were attempted to be circulated, which caused the late panic in the Foreign Market ; not after every individual in London had had opportunities of knowing that the whole affair was an infamous fraud. But perhaps we are too severe upon Mr. ic A TID 9, !r•. , .- - .• :col cause for acting as he has done. Had he applied earlier to the Government, the panic would have been prevented ; and thus the sacrifice of considerable individual property would have been avoided. German Papers have been received, which bring some important advices from Persia. They contain no local news of any public interest. We have received New York Papers, but their con tents are of no political importance. Mr. LIVING STONE Sailed for Washington. The Paris journals of Sunday, the whole of which we have just received, are filled with severe animad versions on the conduct of the Chamber of Deputies on the subject of the Peers' Message, and the order for the expulsion of the reporters from the public gallery on Friday last. In our opinion, the uncor teous expulsion of the reporters is the least part of the insult offered to the public press of France. M. DIJP!N, the President, is not less remarkable for his extreme irritability and eccentricity, than for his great talents and dry sarcastic humour. Vexed and an noyed by the interruption of M. JAUBERT, at a time when he felt himself overpowered in an attempt to defend the conduct of the Chamber of Peers, against his own secret convictions, he gave an order, which had hardly passed his lips before he sincerely repented the rashness of which he had been guilty. Not to betray his own weakness, and expose himself to the contempt of the Chamber, he sat silently observing the departure of the reporters ; but the instant the doors were closed, he ordered them to be again thrown open, and the ejected journalists to be re-admitted. So far we are inclined to regard the act of expulsion as the individual transgression of the President, of which he himself was the first to perceive the enormity, and for which, no doubt, he felt heartily repentant. But it was the speeches made in the Chamber on Saturday, when the Journalists handed in their protest, that discovered the real senti ments of the Deputies, with respect to that press through whose patriotic exertions was achieved the re volution of 1830. It was the attention with which the Chamber listened to the coarse, foul, and calumni ous ribaldries of M. BUGEAUD, M. MoLIN D'AM BERT, and M. JOLIVET, that, in our judgment, constituted the indignity offered by the Chamber of Deputies to the liberal press of France. The violence with which the Chamber assailed the very men to whom it owes a constitutional existence, only establishes the fact of its being harnessed to the triumphal car of LOUIS-PHILIPPE ; for' the principles maintained by the press now, are those which it supported at the Revolution. The principal cause of the extreme aver sion with which the press of Paris is regarded by the Court and the Chambers, is the intimacy which formerly existed between the more respectable leading journalists, and the persons now at the head of the Government. The part taken by the press to bring about the Revolution of 1830 is well known--the integrity of M. ARMAND CARREL, and those who labour with him, is proof against the attractive influence of office and Royal favour— and the penetration of such men cannot be obvi ated, knowing as they do the early habits and opi nions of the puppets moved by the volition of the So vereign. This arms them with a scourge with which they can, and sometimes do, lacerate Ministers and their tools in both Chambers. They know where to strike, and are too honest to allow private or personal considerations to prevent them from discharging their duty to their country. The only chance the Ministers have of escaping is to crush these men by the most infa mous prosecutions ; or if that be found impossible, without hazarding another revolution, to endeavour to raise up a public opinion in their own favour, by sneering at the unprincipled conduct of the Press, and by enlisting their dirty tools of all work in both Chambers, to rail against hireling Journalists. This affected contempt for the opinions of the press is not confined to the Government of France. Instances of sneers as malig nant, and quite as unmerited, might be extracted from the speeches of certain obscure orators who occa 6cthally interrupt the business of the Parliament of treat Britain. But there is no mistaking the real character of those individuals, whether they figure London or Paris. The press has never been sneered at but by three descriptions of persons —ty rants, apostates, and fools. That it occasionally abuses its power, we readily admit ; but at the same time it is the most perfect of all institutions, because it alone corrects itself. All others must be acted upon by powers from without—it derives its correcting influ ence from within, and except where its liberties are un justly curtailed by the malign interposition of the civil authorities, it never fails to neutralize the evils which it sometimes occasions by its advocacy of a bad Go vernment. The most rancorous enemies of the press n France are the men whom it raised to distinction and offices in the State. They both hate and fear it, knowing well that the instant they begin to employ their power to undermine the liberties of Prance, it will rise up, and, if possible, hurl them with infamy from the pinnacle on which they now stand. They know it never sleeps—that its conductors cannot be bribed to betray the objects of their watchful solicitude—and therefore, in very des peration, they become its assailants. We here refer to the tyrants and apostates—the fools who shake their cap and bells at the honesty of public journalists are unworthy of even passing regard. It is possible that the KING Will be the first to re strain headiong pr,:c:p::alicy of :)Dl'.l C!llmirrs, as well as the first to soothe the irritation of the public Journalists. No man more heartily detests the press than LOUIS PIIILIPPE ; but he knows its influence, and how short must be his reign, if it rose up in un compromising hostility against him. He would, and will annihilate it, if he can ; but he is too good a ' tactitian to attack it openly, and all at once. Journal after Journal will be prosecuted—Editor after Editor will be incarcerated—fine after fine will be levied ; but this will be done cautiously, in order that the public may not be• alarmed before his MAJESTY has fixed his throne on a firmer basis than the loyalty of the National Guards, and the honesty of spies, informers, and confreres in political apostacy. The accounts from the North of Spain contained in the Messager received this morning are not impor tant. At Cadiz the Carlists have caused some dis turbance, with which the name of the Bishop is mixed up ; the affair is, however, of little conse quence. The Election says " The garrison of Puen tila-Reyna has been reinforced by 200 catabiliel by order of General VA LDEZ. The garrison of Lumbier, which consisted of 600 men and 50 horses, left that place oh the 14th, and is gone to reinforce the gar rison of Sos. The frontiers occupied by the main body of the Carlists on the 15th and 16th, are the environs of Vittoria. The Christinos occupied Lorin, Ledosa, Mendabra, and Logrono." We have received Madrid Papers to the 19th inst. In the Abeja of the 18th, we find the following . _ " To-day the Council of Regency and the Members of the Cabinet assembled for the purpose, it is presumed, of deciding whether it would be expedient to open negotiations with the Powers who signed the treaty of the quadruple alliance, and ask of them that a corps of foreign troops be marched in to garrison the towns of the insurgent provinces, while the na tional forces would engage in an active campaign, and annihi late the factions by one blow." The above is confirmed by private letters which state, that the REGENT has signed dispatches ad dressed to the French Government, that the interven tion of France is indispensable to put down the Re bellion in the Basque Provinces. The state of the country is really frightful. The people are hedged in between two scourges—Famine and the Sword. RELEASE OF MR. CHILDS] (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) For seven miles our progress was impeded by gigs, horse men, and pedestrians, and a mile from Bungay we found a procession the most extensive ever seen in this country side, with music. banners, boughs, flags and flowers—and the greatest number of people that the present inhabitants ever saw congregated in the town. The houses were decorated— the shops shut—and arches erected in the streets. Carriages had been provided, one for Mr. Childs, another for all his children (who were sent to meet us), and others for their friends. This was all the work of a Committee in the town, and their first notice of our coming was obtained from the Ipswich gentlemen at Norwich on the previous afternoon. Not an accident occurred—a rising groan at Bobbit's house was in stantly checked by a motion of Mr. Childs' finger, and the evening was as peaceable as any other Saturday in the year. ELECTION COMMITTEES. _THIS DAY. ENNIS. The Committee met to-day t --- half-past ten o'clock, and resumed the consideration of the arguments which occupied their attention during the great part of yesterday, relative to the custody of the poll-books. The objection raised on be half of the sitting Member (Mr. Bridgeman) was similar in some respects to that which decided the case of the Roscom mon election in favour of the sitting Members. In this case, the Committee was of opinion that sufficient evidence had been adduced to authenticate the poll-books, and especially to negative the allegation that any erasure, obliteration, ad dition, or change of any kind, was made in them from the close of the poll until their production before the Committee. A scrutiny of the votes was then gone into. Mr. WRANGIIAM proposed to erase from the poll the name of John Cullinane, on the ground that at the time of the election he was not resident on, nor did not occupy the premises in respect to which he claimed a right to vote. The Committee had not decided on the vote when we left. YOUGHALL. The result of the scrutiny up to two o'clock left the num, hers for Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Smith equal on the poll. CARLOW. Mr. THESSIGER addressed the Committee on behalf of the Sitting Members, and had been speakinc , for nearly three hours when we left—(half-past one o'clock.) Sergeant MEREVETHER is to be heard in reply. It is not expected that the Committee will be able to report until im-morrow. SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, MAY 25.—Wind W.

POST OFFICE NOTICE.—His Majesty's brig Nautilus for the Lisbon Mail of this day, the 26th inst. ; letters in time to-morrow evening, the 27th. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Our arrivals this morning are very few—only a French mail, with the Exjress from Paris, which being of Sunday's date, merely brings the trench prices at Tortoni's, which are lower-3 per Cents. 81f. 10c. The accounts from Bayonne by the above conveyance state that the Christinos surprised near St. Estevan, on the evening of the 18th, the fifth and eighth batallions of the Carlists of Navarre, and the Colonel of one of the batallions was made prisoner. THE FUNDS. The panic having subsided in the foreign Market, Securities have obtained a firmer appearance. The brokers and jobbers are now chiefly occupied in arranging and settling their accounts against next Friday, which is settling-day in the Foreign Alarket, and a more heavy account has scarcely ever been remembered. Mr. Ricardo, with several of the parties concerned in the last Spanish Loan, waited yesterday on Lord Palmerston, to obtain some information respecting the present state of the affairs of Spain, and were informed that the Government had not received any in telligence from that quarter to infer that the cause of the Queen was in a worse state than it was three or four weeks since. The above proves that the extraordinary panic which prevailed on the Stock Exchange was a systematic gambling affair. The various Foreign Securities closed yesterday with a firmer appearance. Spanish Bonds left off at 52 53 ; opened this morning at 53i. Spanish Scrip left off at 3i 3 disc. ; opened at 3to 2 disc. Portuguese left off at 954 7i ; opened at 97,. Colombian left off at 41i ; opened at 41i. Mexican left off at 41i ; opened at 41i. Consols, which left off yesterday at 91g- for the Account, opened this morning at 914, the same for money, with' little doing. Ex chequer Bills, 23 25 ; India Bonds, 5 ; Bank Steck, 2121 13i ; India Stock, 257 258. HALF-PAST ONE. In the early part of the morning, Consols, which were 91,1 for the Account, may be quoted at present 911 ; same for Money. Ex chequer Bills have also receded from 25 to 22 ; India Bonds also from 7 to 4 ; India Stock, 2571. There appears to be a great weight in the Foreign Market, which is exceedingly heavy ; Spanish Bonds have receded from 53 to 52 ; Spanish Scrip from 3 to 4 discount. ; Columbian from 41 to 40 ; Portuguese receded from 974 to 9fii ; Three per Cents. from 67N to 66i. A report prevails that a large quantity of Spanish Bonds have been sent from Paris to be sold in our market. TIIREE O'CLOCK Consols for Account, 913. HALF-PAST THREE. Another kind of panic has taken place in the Foreign Market. Spanish has been done at 50 ; Portuguese has fallen to 94 • Spa nish Scrip has been done at 5 to 6 discount, owing to the messenger which Lord Eliot left behind him in Spain having arrived this morning bringing unfavourable accounts. The Queen's troops are deserting to Zumalacaragtty in large bodies, so much so, that he is encumbered with them. THE FUNDS.-CLOSING PRICES. BRITISH FUNDS.

MRS. NORTON," observes a contemporary, " is a lecture upon hearts ; she se lects an ordinary circle of society and lays bare its workings, with all the delicate and minute analytic power which belongs in such matters, especially to the woman of genius. The de licate, graceful and eloquent manner in which this is accom plished by her is perfectly prepossessing ; the novel reader will use a still stronger expression. Such a book might have been one of those upon which the spirit of Fox was fond of reposing, when he forgot Vondon politics in his temporary rustications." The sailing of the Sultan's fleet from the Darda nelles for Tripoli, is confirmed. It left the Straits on the 28th, with a force calculated not to exceed 3,000 or 4,090 men. ~~ PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the Loans last night, the Duke of RICHMOND made some observations on the evidence of the Select Committee 011 Prison Discipline. Lord MELBOURNE I had no hesitation n pledging the Government to a Bill in accordance with tbo resolutions of that Committee. The Earl of RODEN asked whether the Despatch of the Lord Lieutenant, relative to bos Excellency's public entry into Dublin, would be laid before the House. Lord MELBOURNE replied in the negative —t k e production of the Despatch would be injurious to the public service. The Noble Earl repeated the exaggerated statement he made on a former night. Lord LEITRIM said be himself had formed a part of the procession, which was most orderly. A conversation of considerable length on this sub ject took place, which terminated in a declaration by Lord MELBOURNE, that he would not at present enter further into the case, but that if a distinct motion were made for the pro' duction of the Despatch, or for an Inquiry, he would the! ! state the grounds on which he resisted it. The Noble Lot added, that the law relating to party processions should not be violated with impunity. In the COMMONS, two subjects chiefly occupied the House-•; the Marquis of CHANDOS'S Motion on Agricultural DistrT, ard the case of Mr. CHILDS of Bungay, to which, it r oll recollected, The Sun first called the attention of the coo?: try. Sir WILLIAM FOLKES and Mr. HuNiE introduced ti°, subject. A great number of petitions from various Pla ce d is Norfolk and Suffolk were presented on behalfq; • the perseutfed and uncompromising Mr. Camps. HUME stated that Mr. CHILDS had proffered his propertio; hut instead of seizing it, Mr. CHILDS had been dragge d fr 4 his home, and consigned . to a distant dungeon. b , KELLY attempted the defence of the Churchwardens! ° f serving that Mr. CIIILDS had a right to st•ek the altera tlo°°, , the law, but he had no right to rig it. Dr. Lusni sO i declared that the proceed;n gs against Mr. CHILDS wc.re and said, that " it was the duty of the Judge of the sec , siastical Court to have read the Statute • and it ought to known that that Judge had sent a man to ' gaol because bel ignorant of the Statute Law. Never since the passing f ° , the Act 53 George 111. had he known a single instance °to case for Church-rates under 101. being brought before Ecclesiastical Courts without previously going before the. I°P tires." Lord JOHN RUSSELL condemned the proceedingreei As to the question of Church -rates, he thought it wa s desirable that Church-rates should be abolished. He ° Gs, however, that nothing could be done this Session, as the ;00 vcrnment was desirous of receiving all possible inform a l from the Church C omm i ss i oner s. His Majesty's present:7l lusters proposed to bring forward this Session the Mltil reform ltriie Corporations' Reform Bill in E ng l an d and Wales, 0 1 , of the Irish Church, particularly with a view of w e pt ing into effect the appropriation principle. The Goverato,4 would not pledge itself to more than the two measures the i s had just named. Sir R. PEEL said that the Government %lig,. to be ready with many other measures which the Right D' Oh' Bart. enumerated. The CHANCELLOR of the ExCHEQVS ¢ be served that this new-born Bill zeal would deceive neithe r t o Dissenter, nor any one else. Mr. WILKS on the port °I o r Dissenters, was perfectly satisfied with the course c on oge e plated by his Majesty's Ministers. If the two great meatitis. were pressed forward this session, the minor ones migh tes o o factorily . stand over. Dr. BOWRING said the Dissenters °v distinguish their friend s , and wou ld b e p re p are d to wait: Tip Marquis of CH 11 ANDOS brought forward his motion on .iol' ', 41 " . 0 0 tural distress, with a view to the reduction of some PO the of those burdens to which th e l an d i s su bj ec t, throug h o is pressure of local and general taxation."
