SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. --- The Municipal Reforen Bill was recommitted last night. The Report is to be received to-morrow, Thursday, and the debate is to be taken on the third [reading the following day, Friday. We were led to imaeine thet the Lords had done their worst—that, hostile es they are to Municipal Reform, they would be ',pity_ satisfied with th e m i sc hi e f th e y b a d done to the Bill. But we were wrong. The Lords last night surpassed themselves. They contrived to render the now abortive measure still more abortive. The most . important d e t er i ora ti on o f th e measure l ast n i g h t was the amendment moved by Lord Lyndhurst, and car ried, on a division, by a majority of 104 to 36, " that the town-clerks should hold their offices during life ; anti, as a consequence of this, that the present town clerks should hold their offices during their lives, , o? which was the same thin g , during good behaviour. ' Lord Brougham observed, " that by preserving the aldermen and the town-clerks their Lordsh, ps weie telling the people of this country tl,at the whole affair was a mere affectation of reforte . , and that in effect everything would remain substanie, a ll y the same, with the exception of the periodical ':rection of three fourths of the town-council. had said that the Bill was gone again and agaie, ; but now the final close of the measure appeared him to have arrived." It is well known that the : towr-clerks are the life and soul of the corporatioe: e —th a t they are identified with all the abuses of system of corruption which has ren dered cord rations so obnoxious to the country ; and the cont'inuance of these gentlemen in office for life woulei alone render the Bill utterly worthless. The Tories would have, indeed, nothing to fear were the Bill so mutilated and disfigured to pass into a law. We will not so far libel the House of Commons and the Government as to suppose for one moment that they will receive such a measure. " If," said Lord Brougham, " his Noble Friend (Lord Melbourn, should still think it right to go on with the Bill, it would only show that his Noblee Friend possessed greater patience than he eould feel." But Lord Melbourne cannot go on with it ; for the support of the people is necessary tQ the existence of Lord Melbourne's Cabinet; and e,t this no man can be more aware than his Lordshiee. Now, the people can never be reconciled to tins measure ; and were Lord Melbourne, after the 'lofty declarations made by him, to knock under, as th e phrase is, and truckle to the Peers, the disape?ointment—nay, we fear, the dis gust of the peoPk: would be the certain consequence. But the moment ehat Lord Melbourne ceases to en joy the esteem of the people, the moment they cease to have coefidence in him, that moment he is at the mercy or, the Tories, who will find no longer any obstae l te to their entrance on office. In this way, Lord Melbourne would, by his acceptance of office, have been the cause of infinite injury to the cause of the people, because the Tories would be With out any check on their designs against the liberties of the country. Despair would take possession of men's mninds ; and a return to a better state of things could only be hoped from the indignation caused by the long-continued excesses of Tory misrule. The present Liberal Ministry, therefore, know too well their position to deprive themselves of the mo ral support of the people, to be preserved only by pursuing their present dignified course. Character to them is every thing ; for character can alone identify them with the nation. With the prostration of the hopes of the people, they must themselves be pro strated. Their reign would be of :slime continuance, if it depended on either Court fe.vour or Tory mode ration. No, the present Minis fry cannot forget that they were ignominiously dismissed last November ; that the Tories were retained feven against majorities of the House of Commone ; and that nothing but the impossibility of conducting the Government without supplies put an enel to Tory rule. The truckling to the House of Lords at this time would be deemed throughout the country a betrayal of the cause of the people ; and for this sin there would be no forgive ness. We have, therefore, no fear of Ministers. The most eulgar prudence prescribes the same course whit h the most lofty policy would enjoin. On the head of the factious Lords be the conse quences. The time is come when something must be done to rescue the people of this country from a state of timings ten times worse than that which preceded the passing -of the Reform Bill, were it to continue. Peo ple then could hope for peace and tranquillity ; but now they must lay their account with constant turmoil and agitation, without being one whit nearer to the end of it than when the Reform Bill passed. They cannot have the benefit of a Representative Government with an unreformed House of Lords. With respect to the other alterations made last night in the Bill, they are of secondary importance. The Duke of Wellington has secured the abuses of the Cinque Ports. The Earl of Devon has somewhat improved the qualification clause. On the other hand, the right at present en joyed by Dissenters in Corporations to present to livings, has been taken from them. But why need we dwell on a measure which has been rendered utterly worthless, and which, therefore, mist be rejected by the House of Commons ? The course next to be adopted is sufficiently obvious, if it be wished to bring the Peers to reason.—Morning Chronicle. The wise decision of the House of Lords on Mon day evening. and the consequences, important as they must be, which it will produce, though far different from what the ultra-Radicals and Repealcrs antici pate, have been the exclusive subjects of conversa tion for these last six-and-thirty hours. That the Lords have come to an honest and a wise decision is the unbiassed feeling of every man who is capable of connecting the spirit of the compound Irish Church Bill with that of the Government which framed it, and of the Popish faction, under whose baneful influence and passions, and in subserviency to whose projects it was to be enforced against the Pro testant clergy of Ireland, and to the total extinction of their church. We shall not go over again the grounds of argument contained in the well-considered speech of Lord Haddington, and in the vigorous and powerful ad drees of the Bishop of London. He who has not been convinced by those two able speakers, that the necessary effect of voting the appropriation clauses of the Church Bill must have been a rapid reduction through time most foul and atrocious practices of the Protestant population, in those parts of Ireland where Protestan tism was already weak and intimidated, until the whole island, save only a few of the northern counties, would be exclusively in the hands of Papists, and every trace of our creed and of those who believe in it alike swept away from the earth—he, we say, who is insensible to the conviction which ought by this time to have been wrought upon the mind of the community by such ap peals as have been already made to it, is one e itih whom we shall not waste time by any att.em;„ to rea son. Nor is it of much importance to 'ote public to worse, ma dwell upon the inconsistencies, if ne,', /l i„, infested by some of those officio,' peesons b .who, now in office, under O'Connell for r I .aeir chief, have done their best to palm upon the co ;„,,t ry t h ose very provisions re garding th e Church, w hi c h only last year they con demned and repr o fated as atrocious. Of these, Lord Lansdowne sr..pears among the most prominent, he and Lord Broitlam having in the summer of 1834 de clared a' , ainst the diversion of Church property to atietA Cl e. " but , pe erposes i mme di ate l y connected with the inreh uneier any conceivable circumstances. His Lordshie,'s speech on Monday last is a precious comment on the stability of his principles, and a most satisfaelory illus tration of the sort of reliance which may be placed men like th e N o bl e M arqu i s. But on grand exhibi tion of party tactics on the night in question, the unlucky one ma d e by Viscount :Melbourne was himself. This Noble L or d, who seems to have degenerated into a paw of that hungry animal which counts 37 knots in its tail,—this Noble Viscount, when he found that there was a majority e,f nearly 100 Lords against grafting a scheme fe y the demolition of the ehurch in of Ireland upon the Bill for commutation of tithe, dee Blaring in a pet that be would give up the latter Bill altogether ! Now only conceive the perverse ness, the factious perverseness, are sorry to call it, of such a course. Lord Melbourne submits to the House of Lords two propositions, in t heir nature distinct, but both in the eyes of the Noble Lord and his friends, of the highest import ance to t h e well-being of th e c h urc h, and to the tranquillity of Imhtnds, One of these is the commutation of tithe i an object recognised as altogether indispensable to tl:e present existence of the church, since without it the clergy are irretrievably destitute : the other proposition is for the diversion of church property, when a surplus shall be found to exist beyond the necessities of the clergy, to such purposes as are enumerated in the Bill. This latter object, inasmuch as it deals with only a prospective and contingent fund, is manifestly not of an immediate or pressing description. It is in its very principle disjoined from that portion of the measure which enacts a commutation of tithe—because the tithe commuted is an immedi ate provision for the Churell—whereas the in come to be diverted is a th: tig to its future loss and detriment. The separ ate character of these two enact ments we have laf t - ely .. year not merely ackno• shown to have been last .etedged, but insisted cn - i, by Lords Al thorp, ir".. , 'm Russell, an d Mr, Littleton, as a distinct reasr.,a for not mixing up the spoliation with the coin :Liutation measure. Then what takes place between the House of Lords and Lord Melbourne ? A large majority of their Lordships announce to him that they concur in the plan for commuting tithe—the most ur ' gent and emergent of all political objects—because it involves the subsistence of the established clergy ; and that to the same end they will co-operate with him in furthering and improving his measure to the utmost, To the diversion of church property they refuse their as sent. " In that case," quoth Lord Melbourne, " I will not accept the commutation of tithes. I don't care a straw for the maintenance of the Protestant clergy, ct for the preservation of the Church of England. What I want is to secure my party abject, leaving the national one to take care of itself. The clergy may starve, they may go to ruin, so that I can, through the destruction of both, bribe O'Connell and the Papists to keep me and my Wl2.ig brethren in possession of the Govern ment, a;iti to keep the Conservatives . out." There is, we - zepeat, no other rational meaning to be assigned to this gross and wicked manoeuvre. If the Ministers in the House of Commons throw out the Commutation Bill because they cannot have a Spoliation Bill too, they betray to the people of England the cloven foot of faction with an impudence of which there has been no previous example in this country ; hut let them look well to it—let them Stop the supplies if they dare —let them, if they dare, make such a direct attack on public credit—let them, if they can screw their cou rage to the sticking-place, disgust and revolt the entire monied interest of England—let them confront, if they have nerves for it, the whole mass of property in Great Britain, with the brand upon their foreheads of having revenged themselves, by breaking up the State itself, for their failure in one piratical enter prise against the remaining income of an a l rea d y impoverished an d plu n d ere d' church ; and in another, against the ancient rights of every lay cor p ora ti on i n England. We can discern in all these furious demon strations on the part of Lord Melbourne and his col leagues the consciousness of alost battle, and of a despe rate and forsaken cause.lf his Lordship had a cre ditable case to show his countrymen, could he not have arrayed in support of it more than 40, or than twice 40 Peers, the whole of . his muster upon the Irish Church Bill ; while upon the English Corporation Bill, lie had just the same number of . Lords behind him, that O'Connell has of joints in his tail, the talis manic total of 37. It is in vain, therefore, for Lord Melbourne to flatter himself that he has the property of the country with him. Lord Grey had a force among the Peers short by little more than 30 of the whole Conservative peerage. Lord Melbourne even, at the close of last session, had a majority against him of no more than 37. And now the Conservative majority comes up to 138, and the Ministerial ranks drop down to 40 and to 37. Where is Lord Grey ? Does he . approve, we should like to know the fact, this din of revolutionary measures ? In truth, we think Lord Melbourne much to be compassionated. If he cannot enlist a larger force of the English Aristocracy, the more seemly part for the Noble Viscount would be, to tell the King he cannot carry on the Government ; unless indeed he considers the time ripe for attempting to rule and make laws for the British empire by a small majority in the House of Commons alone, with King and Peers against him. His Lordship may begin that game, but it is one which he will never live to finish. There may be Cromwells in the 19th century, as there were in the 171 h, but Lord Viscount Melbourne is not one.-- Times. It is not very often that much gratitude is felt for a boon that has not been asked for or wanted. On the contrary, it not unfrequently exhibits rather the igno rance then the benevolence of the giver. Such is Mr. Spring Rice's proposal of giving to the Proprietors of Newspapers a copyright for a limited time in their pro ductions. Such a concession has never been asked for or desired by the persons whom it professes to be for the benefit of ; who, on the contrary, have long found the principle of " give and take" quite as convenient to themselves, and acceptable to their readers, as any restriction of this kind would be. We believe we may allude to this subject with a sincerity which cannot be questioned. No manor, we are persuaded, is more poached upon than our own. We contribute more to the columns of our contemporaries, both in town and country, and borrow from them less, probably, than almost any other Journal in the kingdom. Yet we see no benefit that could arise to ourselves, while much inconvenience would be felt by the public, were the prohibition we speak of to be put in practice. We all copy articles of intelligence from each other, upon the principle of wishing to furnish our readers with any species of information which falls within our reach. Provincial Journals are supplied, as to their general news, almost wholly from the columns of the' London Press ; while , they, on the other hand, are the source from which local facts are taken by the latter. The Evening Papers have found it to their interest of late years to copy leading ar ticles from those of the Morning ; so that one paper may be said to convey an image of the whole public mind as regards public affairs. Yet no Morning Journal ever complains of this, or was known to sell a paper the less on that account. It is true th a t t h e source from which these b orrowe d stores arc taken is not always acknowledged ; and we have even seen our selves large unacknowledged contributors to papers which, in the adjoining column, think it no ingrati tude to make us the objects of the most virulent abuse. In this, however, we have but " neighbour's fare," and the whole is a matter of taste which it is sible to control. At any rate the Newsna .-- • -Air press wants no law or copyright to p r o t ' a it. I Th e very term implies republication, " P :. ) ,t a series of editions, which the conte n t s of newspaper can rare l y or ever undergo. T ri 0 w ver valuable and well executed, the P r° '.ictiom of the Newspaper Press must be in their nature ephemeral ; and though there are repeated in stances, no doubt, of the republication in a detached form of essays and letters which had made their first appearance in newspapers, if we except the splendid instance of Junius 's Letters, we cannot call to mind one other in which the question of copyright could be worth a thought. Upon the whole, this proposed boon would, we are convinced, prove an annoyance, and no benefit ; and is one of the m2_ny instances in which, in common with others, t:.:e might justly enough exclaim, " Save us M our friends I"—Morning Herald. The ItnT:isonment for Debt Bill was postponed last night, not to next day, or next week, but to next session. The Bill was in fact lost. It was known from the beginning that though brought in by the Attorney-General, and sanctioned by the Government, it never was much of a favourite with either. Thf Attorney-General s eeme d tr., regaril it as a pledge, to wards the redemption of which he was bound to do something, if it was only for the purpose of showing people that he had not lost his memory. The Go vernment seemed to consider it as a sort of minor re form, which they could not oppose upon principle, but which, as it promised no accession of political power to their party, they felt themselves at liberty to ne glect. Between both, we are aware how drawlingly rt " dragged its slow length along " upon the road to oblivion, and how constantly it seemed to inclin e to wards the precipice down which it has fallen at last. At the same time we cannot but think that if more zeal had been embarked in the cause, the result would have been different. NeVer was any principle ino-,. e fully established, in the judgment of rational men, that which asserts the mischief and cruelty, and fa y, of imprisonment for debt, As to the petitir i ns pre- stilted against the Bill—that is, in favour of imprison ment for debt—they should only be regarded as the exaggerated fears of interested parties, anti dealt with accordingly. Such petitions are always to be expected when any - change of system is about to take place ; and they poured in much more numerously, and with much more confident expectations of the destruction of credit, when Lord Redesdale first proposed the mi tigation of the law of debtor and creditor, and carried it in the teeth of their remonstrances. But plain as the principle is, and urgent as the reasons are which call for its adoption at the present In-- - long interval of suffering* lature will —.cut, another —.sc - elapse before the Legis .emure to say that misfortune might iiiit to confounded with crime., Via industry cut off from the means nf eltertion, merely b ecause , it had been previously employed without success.—Morn. Herald. The division in the House of Lords on Monday night realised our proudest anticipations. We said that on that night the Protestant Peers of England were about. to struggle with the .Papaen aed theif Lordships were conscious of the character of the contest. They may rest assured that the eyes of all Europe were upon them. The speech of the Lord Bishop of London in particular was worthy of his high theme, worthy of the august assembly to which it was addressed, worthy of the reverend and lettered Bench of which he is one of the most pious and dis tine-„nizahed ornaments. It was earnest, it was eloquent, it was argumentative and convincing in the highest de gree. In fact, it exhausted the subject, and the thrill ing peroration not only struck to the hearts, and was echoed by the voices, of all present, but we feel confi dent has stirred the spirit, and been responded to by the sympathy, of every Protestant in the United Kim , - dom. Nothing can exceed the factious conduct of the Premier, if Premier he still be, on this great question. Two measures which have no necessary connection with each other, but which are avowedly incorporated with each other for party purposes of a very discredi-, table character, are submitted to the consideration of the House of Commons. By a very small majority, confessedly on all hands obtained by the mere suffrages of the Popish Members, the Siamese Act passes the Lower House, and is sent to the Peers. The Peers, to prove the sincerity of their wishes to advance all measures for the benefit of the State, and of Ireland especially, allow the Bill to be read a second time, pass unanimously in Committee every clause which relates to the relief of the practical evils complained of, and strike out the clauses referring only to an abstract principle of the assertion of which nearly half the House of Commons had previously disapproved. The Prime Minister hereupon turns round, and coolly de clares that he will not take upon himself the responsi bility of carrying on the measure any further. Could anything be more barefaced, more unjust, more wicked ? Insolent, audacious man I Or, rather, should we pity him ? The loud clamour of his braggadocio failed of its purpose. In the midst of it we still heard the dank of his fetter. The slave of O'Connell I Those who remember Lord Melbourne in his calmer and happier hours, must, indeed, be thunderstruck. Now mark—mark the dilemma of this unhappy Minister. The Catholic Peers of England, inspired by the remem brance of their heroic ancestors, decline voting on this occasion, in deference to their oath. What a brand for O'Connell. Now, the Bill has passed the Com mons only by the votes of the perjured Papists. So, Lord Melbourne announces that his consideration for these false slaves outweighs his respect for the Peers of England I We leave him in this melancholy Po sition.—Morning Post. When posterity shall look back to the unparalleled fatuity which, in 1835, arrayed the Peers against the people—when hereditary legislation shall have passed away, and its memory survive only in the general execration—when the historian shall trace the pro gress, reverses, and ultimate consummation of the momentous measures now pending on the issue of the struggle ;—midst the commingling of hosts, and the assaults of factions, will be distinguished one in dividual, if not in the foreground of the picture; aloof,—in prominent relief,—guiding, by superior in telligence, the evolutions of a mighty people—unin vested with office, but identified with free principles, the master spirit of the age, .and Genius of the MOVEMENT will be recognized—Henry Lord Brougham. The chastisement, severe and merited, which the despotic, disorderly, and disgraceful con duct of the Peers has so frequently provoked from his Lordship, has naturally excited against him their dead-. liest hostility ; and as revenge is often remarkable as the strongest passion of idiotcy, and as malice gene rally increases with the impotence of gratification, we are not surprised at the fatuous malevolence which so frequently attempts to assail him in the House—nei ther do we wonder at the malignant reviling of hire lings paid by ignorance and corruption to vituperate and slander the champion of knowledge and just legis lation : such devices arc congenial to the cause they are intended to support ; but we admit our astonish ment at that reckless depravity of ingratitude and dis appointed ambition which instigates an or i gan of libe ralism, flimsy an d fi ct i t i ous as t h at organ s liberalism is, to add its mite of venom to the poisoned chalice of detraction. Who can review the pro ceedings of the Upper House since Lord Broug ham's presence shed a lustre on its . sittings, without being astonished at his individual exer tion in defence and promotion of the rights of the people ? He has put forward the most free and en lightened principles—torn ofF the veil of fallacies—re pelled falsehoods —restrained faction, and rebuked de linquency and disorder—ever at his post, heedless of fatigue and physical suffering, his. unequalled intellect bore him aloft—triumphant o'er every assailant—and, in securing an illustrious immortality for himself, made the people of England everlastingly his debtors. It is .not in the columns of a Newspaper we could enumerate his services—these are best recmded in the numerous Reforms which he has projected, assisted, and accom plished. And now at the close of a most laborious Session, is the temporary retirement of such a man to be embittered by calumny ? Are his enemies and those of the nation to be allowed with impunity to distil their foul etnyound into his cup ? Does not every feeling of gratitude and honour forbid it ?

The Tories have become insane as well as rabid— they are actually dreamin„cf, in consequence of the de feat of the Irish Church I3ill in the House of Lords, and the butchery of the Municipal Corporation Bill in the same quarter, of the resignation of his Ma jesty's Ministers, and of their own return to power I Was there ever such an aberration of mind ?—such a total eclipse of reason ?—such an utter forgetfulness of the past, and total insensibility to the present state of parties and their relative power ? The Ministers resign t Why should they ? Are not the people with them ? Is not the House of Commons with them ? And would they not be traitors not only to the gr ea t measures which th e y h ave introduced, but to the cause of the people, if they were to dream for one moment of giving way to those whom they Constitu i • tionally displaced p et them be turned out, in God's name, if the Tories and the Court party think they can gain any thing by the manoeuvre ; but for the comfort of the Standard, the Albion, and all the other organs of the abettors of abuses, we tell them that Miofstek* will retain ?gee, while • Mc!! have a majority in the House of conimon. zii their favour, and that they will not retain it one moment longer than • that majority shall e x i s t. Is this enough ? or do our Contemporaries require a little more information ? Would they like to know if there is to be a dissolution of the present Parliament ? No.—Morning Advertiser. The country is now fully awake to the danger of its present position, and the calamities by which it is threatened, by an obstinate majority in the House -of Lords, determined upon the maintenance of the most acknOwledged abuses, and most hostile to every inno vation that is calculated to uproot them. It is rising like one man in every quarter---in every city, town and borough—and rising in a guise, and with a de termination, which tells the Lords, as plainly as words can tell them, that it is high time for them '‘ to set their house in order," and to prepaie for their utter THE SUN, LONDON, .~F :.

There was a time when that House was denominated the Upper House—when it was not only respected, but, we may add, in some measure, revered and 1 w--- ny the people; but these • Luc days in which it acted upon liberal and liopu • lar principles—when it did lint make war upon the peopll, ,the l3et olet, fights:n:4llH, iiii it spoke with the same voice that the latter did, and, unfettered by prejudice, or party object, or anti-. popular bias, drew no line of distinction between its own interests and those of the " coffee of all legitimate power."

They have sought for nothing but that to which they are justly entitled, and they have sought for that in the most peaceable manner ; but if their quiet remon strances—their peaceful meetingstheir humble pe titions, fail of effect, it is not impossible that either through. their representatives, or by themselves, they may have recourse to those effectual measures of re dress, which, however painful, have in all cases given the victory to the people.—Moiwing Advertiser. HOUSE OF LORDS. (Before Lord BROUGHAM and other Peers.) APPEALS.-LIEUT. COL. GORDON V. ANDERSON AND OTHERS. Testerday morning, Dr. LUSHINGTON was heard in re ply, and in the course of his argument adverted to the opi nions entertained by some of the Judges of the Court of Session, a judgment delivered by Lord Eldon in a case of appeal to this House, analogous in principle to the present one, and in which judgment the Learned Judge had ex premed a feeling of dissent. Lord BROUGHAM, in the course of his observations on the case, expressed his great surprize at the opinions which the Learned Counsel had stated as entertained by Judges of the Scottish Courts in opposition to those of so learned and excellent a Judge as Lord Eldon, adding, that there never was a more able Judge, and never were the appeal cases more anxiously considered, than at the time when his Learned and Venerable Friend sat on the Woolsack. He concluded by stating, that he should take time to consider the present ease further ere he gave his decision on it. The judgment in the case of Warrender v. Warrender was postponed till Thursday. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—CHESTER. John Lewis, 36, Abraham Antonio, 21, and Andrew An tonio 22, all Lascars, were indicted for assaulting William Whitehead on the highway, and stealiog from his person twelve shillings and other property. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners, and sentence of death was recorded against them. John Bracegirdle, labourer, was convicted of perjury, in swearing before the Magistrates in petty session, at Mac clesfield, that he did not see John Oldfield and two other men (since convicted of stealing fowls) on the premises of Mr. Rowbotham, at Shrigley Foal ; that the men had no fowls in their possession ; and that he did not receive any money from the offenders to compound the felony. Sentence deferred. William Rowbotham, aged 22, was indicted for perjury, in swearing before Sir John Stanley and other Magistrates that he did never receive any money from John Oldfield, Samuel Holland, and another (convicted of stealing fowls from his farm) to compound a felony. His Lordship said there was no case against the prisoner, and the Jury ac quitted him. SLANDER.-BRADY V. RADENHUBST. Mr. EVANS said this was an action brought by Dr. Brady, a physician at Nantwich, against Mrs. Radenhurst, a re spectable lady, residing in the same town. Dr. Brady was educated at St. Paul's and Cambridge, travelled on the Continent in the prosecution of his medical studies, and be came a member of the College of Physicians. He was a gentleman of considerable repute in his profession, and was, among other honorary distinctions, during his practice in the metropolis, physician to the Princess Amelia, until her death. He married and had a family ; but having been afflicted with the loss of his wife, and the successive death of his children, he left the metropolis and settled at Nant wich. Here he again married a lady of the name of Hall, daughter of the surgeon to the forces. This lady, in con sequence of an hereditary malady with which her family were afflicted, unfortunately died by her own hand in April last. The slanderous words complained of were, that the defendant, Mrs. Radenhurst, said to Ellen Robinson, the female servant of Dr. Brady, " It is a pity your poor mis tress is gone off so sudden. I beard in the market on Sa turday that Mrs. Brady had received a letter from Dr. Brady's other wife, and opened it, where Dr. Brady was not in." Robinson told this to Mrs. Ann Vaughan, the plaintiff's housekeeper, and she told it to the Doctor, who felt hi mse lf b oun d t o bring the present action, in vindica tion of his chat actor. Mr. TEMPLE addressed the Jury for the defendant. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, with a farthing damages. POLICE INTELLI GENCE. MANSION- HO USE. The robberies committed on board the steam vessels have now reached a most alarming height. The following case is an instance of one system of plunder. A tall man of decent appearance, who said that his name was Willis, was brought before Alderman COWAN, who yesterday sat for the Lord Mayor, charged under the fol lowing circumstances : AdentlemannanTed Hakill accompanied two Ladies to the Margate steam packet, Fresh Wharf. Among their him a gage was a large carpet bag, containing clothes and trinkets to the value of perhaps 1001. The prisoner was stopped in his attempt to carry off the carpet bag. The Ladies had gone on to Margate, and taken with them the bag, which was recovered without loss. The vessel was, at the time the robbery was committed, waiting at the wharf for passengers, and numbers of persons were crowding in with luggage and parcels of all kinds, so that a good deal .of confusion was occasioned. One of the vessel's officers stated that he particularly noticed the carpet bag brought in by the company described, and saw it laid down along with their other luggage. Immediately afterwards the pri soner, who did not appear to belong to them at all, walked to the spot, took up the carpet bag, and was walking away with it, when witness stopped him, and asked him where he was going with the property. He replied that he was waiting for a Gentleman who was to sail in the vessel. A Gentleman and Lady then stepped forward and claimed the carpet bag. Witness asked the prisoner to who m it was directed, but the latter could not tell, and evidently knew nothingabout it. The prisoner was remanded for a week. A most awful event took place in the course of the exa mination in the next case. A young man in the employment of Messrs. Cheer and Co., stationers in Cornhill, was brought before Messrs. Alderman COWAN and WILSON, charged with having acted indecently in the presence of a female on the pre ceding night. The defendant protested most solemnly that the accuser was mistaken, said that he had a wife and two children, and that he had been in the service of Mr. Chater upwards of five years, and was respected by that most worthy and respectable Gentleman, who was in attendance to say whe ther he (defendant) could be capable of such conduct as was attributed to him. Mr. Alderman COWAN immediately addressed Mr. Chater, who is well known to the Magistracy of the City, and asked him what sort of moral character the defendant bore ? Mr. Chater stepped up to the dock at which the Mar shal stands to answer the question. He stated that the defendant had worked for him for a considerable time, and that not one of thirty men whom he employed was, in his opinion, less capable of the conduct imputed to him than the defendant. Mr. Chater, who appeared to be much agitated while he was speaking, suddenly ceased, staggered, and would have fallen to the ground, had not the Marshal caught him. Upon being placed in a chair he frothed at the mouth, and life departed in a few moments. When a medical man arrived a vein was opened, but no blood a ppeared. 4 The son of Mr. Chater arrived immediately, and it is impossible to describe the scene which followed. The de ceased was placed in a shell, and in the evening removed to his late residence. Ho was in his seventy-third year, and was highly esteemed by all who knew him. The defendant, who seemed to be greatly affected at the death of his master, was, discharged, the Alderman declar ing that they believed the complainnt mistook one man for another.

The female prisoner was discharged, with an admonition from Mr. lIALLs to be more cautious in future as to what company she suffered herself to fall into.

MUNICIPAL REFORM BILL. PARISH OF ST. ANDREW HOLBORN. A meeting of the inhabitants of this, parish was held yes terday at the inquest-room, in Holborn, -Mr. JOHN WATSON in the chair, to consider the propriety of petitioning the Kin! , ' and the House of Commons on the subject of the Municipal Cor porations Bill. Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR read the first resolution, to the ef fect, " that their Representatives in Parliament, and all the liberal Members, be requested to reject the aristocratic muti lations of the Bill." Mr. GILL seconded the resolution, which was unanimously agreed to. Mr. FEARON, in proposing the second resolution, to the effect, ". that the great constitutional power of stopping the supplies was not to be made use of on light occasions, but that the recent votes of the House of Lords full) justified such a step on the part of the Commons," paid that the House of Commons had exerted themselves boldly and nobly on this occasion, and the people should come forward to second the efforts of the House of Commons, and impress upon the Lords the argument of fear.--( Hear, hear.) Let the Lotds beware how they set themselves in array against the intelligence and ;he wealth of the peopl He was glad to perceive that part of the Ministry in the House of Commons were not asleep on the great point of stopping the supplies. Mr. JOHNSON seconded the resolution, and it was passed unanimously. Mr. SHAW then moved a resolution, which Mr. BRADIN seconded, expressing admiration at the conduct of Ministers, and intreating them to yield on nu terms to the Opposition that thwarted them. Mr. TAYLOR then moved the next resolution, to the effect, " That this meeting should call upon the people generally, although deeply lamenting the necessity, to stand as one man in support of their rights, and by an unanimous exertion render impotent the efforts of the enemies of the beneficial measure of Corporation Reform." Mr. LYNN seconded the resolution, and it was unanimously agreed to. .An address to the King, and a petition to the House of Commons, founded on the resolutions, were then read and ap proved of; and it was agreed that the petition should be pre sented by the four City Members, and that they should be re quested to present the address to the King, through Lord Melbourne. The Meeting, after voting thanks to the Chairman, sepa rated. MARYLEBONE.—The address to the King, agreed to at the public meeting of the parishioners of St. Marylebone, held last Monday, was forwarded to Lord Melbourne last night. It contained the signatures of 3,051 householders, which were obtained in the short space of twelve hours. The petition to the House of Commons, signed by 3,002 householders, has also been placed in the hands of Sir Samuel Whalley. BOSTON, LINCOLNSIIIRE.—An address to Lord Melbourne, as Prime Minister, most numerously signed, was on Tuesday presented to his Lordship by John Wilks, Esq., M. P. A pe tition to the House of Commons, to the same effect, was also agreed to, and is to be presented by Mr. Wilks. BRISTOL.—A petition to the House of Commons, praying it to resist the mutilations made by the Lords in the Corpora tion Reform Bill has just been agreed to by the inhabitants of this town. The petitioners state that they consider the Bill, as altered by the Lords, to be an insult to the country. ABERDEEN.—TOWN COUNCIL-At a meeting of the Town Council held in this town on Wednesday last, Bailie Milne, being called to the chair, said, that in the absence of the Pro vost, he had considered it his duty to call them together, as the principal cities and burghs of Scotland had already peti tioned the House of Lords to pass the English Borough Re form Bill as it had been sent up to them by the House of Commons. They were all sensible of the good effects of the Scotch , Burgh Reform Bill; and if that Bill had been proper and necessary for Scotland, a similar Bill was as much re quired for England.—Mr. Angus then rose and read the peti tion to the House of Lords. After some observations from several of the members of the Council, many of whom were of opinion that the petition was not sufficiently strongly worded, it was at length adopted by the Council, and directed to be transmitted to Lord Brougham for presentation.—Aberdeen Herald. PER public meeting of the inhabitants of Perth was held on the evening of Friday week, for the purpose of peti• tioning the House of Lords to pass the Bill before them for the Reform of the Municipal Corporations of England, and was attended by a great concourse of people. Tho several trades, with their banners and music, marched in procession to the Inch, and marshalled themselves round the hustings, which had a very imposing effect in the beautiful stillness of the evening. The Lord Provost having arrived, occupied the chair, and was received with great cheering. The resolutions were carried by acclamation. The meeting was numerous and respectable. There were about 4,000 assembled on the ground. —.Caledonian Mercury. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. VESSELS ENTERED INWARDS AT THE -CUS- TOM-HOUSE, AUG. 25.

We have been favoured with the following extract of a let ter, giving a more detailed account than has yet ben F übi sh d of the disturbances of the negroes in the vicinity of the Ha vannah " HAVANNAII, JULY 17.—When you hear of the difficulties we have had here amongst the slaves, let it not akr.ii you, as the affair was of no consequence. About 40 negroe, , , man cipados,' (these are negroes captured by the English from the slave traders, whom they- make prisoners and bring to the Ha vannah ; they deliver them to the Spanish Government on con dition that they shall be free after five years' residence in the colony,) probably badly advised, thought they would sooner ob tain their freedom by rising upon those who kept them, and massacrcing all the white people they might meet on the high road about three miles from the city. As soon as the alarm was given, the cavalry,marched to the spot, led en by Gover nor Tacon ; orders were given not to spare one. They were soon discovered, and massacred in their turn. Some of them made a brutal resistance, and threw themselves like wild beasts on the horses, and preferred to be absolutely cut into pieces rather than surrender. Others fled, and a good many were made prisoners. About IS or 20 lives have been lost, five of which were whites, the rest negroes. This happened on Sun day,' the 12th instant, at one o'clock in the afternoon. On Tuesday, the 14th; at the same hour, and almost on the same spot, negro slaves, carrying water, either insulted or threatened a sentinel, who was shot dead. Immediately afterwards a free negro woman, having sonic property, and who was called by fie blacks La Rana, was, a:kc px,4ancr,ias ‘011010410,e wor t e free negrocs, whocs, were found c onceal e d i n h er d we lling with muskets and swords. Amongst them is one negro froic Ja maica, and another from St. Domingo. Six of the negroc-'s who revolted on Sunday were shot ye3terday at five o'clock in theaft . üb.ernoon. There arc still man y more t o b e exec uted." st Diario Mercantil has been received at Philadcl A _ , phia of the 18th ni;!atit- . ..,, " It contains no particular account, says did Philadelphia (. 7 .7ettc, "of the insurrection which took place among the blacks at that port on Sunday, the I.2th of July, but publishes etc sentence and decree of the authori ties, by whom six of the ringleaders were tried and convicted. The sentence was, that the parties be shot in the back, and that their beads be cut off and exposed to public view at a number of the most public places, ail of ;Fhich was carried into effect on the 10th of the month. SPORTING IN TELLIGENCE. EGIIAM RAC 12 S--YESTERDAY. These races commenced under auspices which could not fall to render them attractive. The course was in excellent con dition, and the regulations for securing comfort to the visitors , as well as good order in the progress of the spore, were such as to entitle the clerk of the course to the highest praise. At an early hour the approaches to the scene of action displayed the usual hustle, the number of arrivals of different ranks being considerably enhanced by the announeerronn of the intendeci, presence of Royalty. The preparations for she reception 0 1 their Majesties were similar to those observations on former occasions. Tippoo Saib's tent was pitched immediately opP °- site the winning post, and by the introduction of a fats..? floor, a platform was erected, from which a perfect view of the s,nort could be commanded. Shortly before two o'clock the ap proach of their Majesties was hailed with loud cheers; they were accompanied by a cortege of ten carriages and phaetons , attended by outriders. Among the distinguished individual s whom we noticed in the Royal circle were the Duke of Se mours, son of the King of the French, the Princess of SW Weimar, Prince Ernest of Phillipsthal, Baron Gersdorff, Dui' of Dorset, Sir A. Barnard, Marquis Conytigham, Lord Albe marle, Lord Denbigh, Lord F. Fitzclarence, &c. The side s of the course were lined with carriages filled with members of the fashionable world, amongst whom we noticed Lord 1. 3- bridge, Lord Paget, Lord Chesterfield, Lord Cavendish, Lora Ashbrooke, Count Bathiany, Count d'Orsay, Sir John Cath cart, Admiral Tollemache, Colonel Chaloner, Colonel Free mantle, Colonel Salway, Colonel Hill, Sir Gilbert Heatlicotel Hon. Mr. Ashley, Sir John Gibbon, &c. Their Majesties continued on the course till the conclusion of the sports, shortly before five o'clock. The King appeared in excellent' health and spirits, and paid the utmost attention to the French Prince , who was evidently highly gratified with the amusements of the day. In consequence of his Majesty holding a Levee this M r at St. James's, he'will not be present, but has announced his intention to repeat his visit to-morrow. The weather was fine throughout the day.

GRAND CUTTER WAGER.—The splendid four-oared gall er f wager for a cutter, given by Mr. Chandler, the proprietoi the Ship Tavern, Milbank, took place yesterday. It had fro': its first announcement created extreme interest. Its fairneg: in choosing had given it a decided advantage over prev i°j p, matches of this description. The whole of the light compa° l ', had been mixed, and they then drew for partners, thus diNid'' l r t i the crack men. The prize was a very excellent four oa rc bc boat, laid down by the celebrated Hunt, the fi r st builder of t day. Three heats decided the wager, the two first of the tt c preceding heats rowing for the grand and third heat : The Foi (black).=-J. Read, S. Collins, A. Reid, 11. Sannue — A. Lavender. (1.
