ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF SCOTLAND, FROM THE UgAIBERS, OF THE ABERDEEN NATIONAL ASSOCIA:TION. Felb—. PROg r oTING - TUE P( - ). _ , LITIOA - L,ANt• SOCIAL IMP.ROYEDIENX OF THE. PEOPLE. Fellow Countrymen, —In the earnest desire to pro mote the welfare .of our country, and to,procure for our selves and fellow-labourers our righto.as men and as citi zens, we have been led to approve and adopt the " plan of organization" proposed by Lovett and Collins Re lying on the. soundness of those maxims, " that for a nation to love liberty it is sufficient that she knows it, and to be 'free, sufficient that she wills it," we are com pelled to admit, that as a nation we have never known liberty, nor as a people willed our freedom. Believin7 that our social degradation and political bondage are the' effects of exclusive legislation, engendered and perpe trated by ignorance and vice, we hailed with satidoction and delight a system of organisation, having for its , ob ject the removal of those primary causes . and their con sequent effects. Aware, however, that many of our .Chartist brethren I have, through misconception, drawn . very unwarrantable conclusions respecting the motives ,end objects of those '.':ho have joined what they are pleased to term the " new move," we think it a duty which we owe to them and to ourselves, frankly and openly toavow our reasons for the course we have adopted. What we mean to offer is net intended as a reply to that small section of our friends who have den ounce d an d cuto ff f rom th e i r Con nection all who have openly dared te,:approve of, or ad vocate, the " new plan. of organization, '* for we must confess there is little in that "plan" calculated to attract the ignorant, or call forth the approbation Of the unthink ing. But without pledging ourselves .for the perfection of any system devised by human ingenuity, we beg to submit the following as our reasons for becoming mem bers of the " National Association" i2e-Ist. Because it has . for its object the obt a i n i ng o f t h e " P eop l e ' s Charter.: . 2 d , Because it proposes to effect this by' raisie the moral ..; and intellectual st a nd ar d o f the pee.' "c I., ordance with the - te ; 3d, Because its objects and means a r e i n s ':..teac first Chartist Associatio n e ..46,blishea in Britainer 4th, Because it proposes 4 .4.) - carry out tvhat every Chartist union has to some .extent' been endeavouring to do. sth, Because it Irl o Yid ee f or the education of our chit • dren, and - prevents them from b e ing ' su bjected to the present system o f mora l training bY Which the tiorrup tienor society are perpetuated. •'6tli Because it is p'Jt opposed to, but goes beyond tiny,dhartist union or association now existing. 7th, Because it proposes nothing but what is practical if the_ people are willing. Bth, Because it will not endanger the liberty or re quire the sacrifice of any one to foeward it. 9th, Be cause it opens a path to our ranks-efor good men of. all classes. 10th, Pecause it would ;-improve our condi tion, even if it failed in procuring for us the Charter. 11th, Because it would qualify us to make the best use of our rights when we obtain them. 12th, Be cayee it would destroy the power of dictators. These reasons appear to us sufficient toejustify our conduct for the course we have taken. Having on former oc casions pledged ourselves to use every just and lawful means in our power to obtain the '"People'S Charter," we would have deemed it a violation of that pledge, had we neglected to adopt this much despised " new plan of organisation." Claiming Mind exercising for ourselves the right of individual judgment, we assert it to be the best and most efficient plans:that has yet been proposed for making the " Charter"' the law of the land. We ground this assertion on the fact, that there are thousands, ay, millions of our 'fellow-countrymen who are yet ignorant of their rightt, or indifferent to their own interests, and we think it must now be ap parent to all intelligent men that nothing less than the demand of a majority of the people will ever procure for the whole people the Charter of their liberties. Hence the necessity for " extending'fand promoting an enlightened public opinion in favour of the People's 'Charter." To accomplish this, the plan which we have adopted proposes to employ missionaries; to circulate in formation through the press, to form libraries,' to erect halls for the old and schools for the pung; and, in order to carry out these objects on a far more extensive scale than has hitherto been done, it is .Only required that those who have already professed themselves Chartists, contribute the suni of one penny per Week. Fellow . -countrymen !—We ask you, as rational, in telligent men, whether these objects " are unworthy of your consideration ?" whether you think it unne cessary "to extend and promote an' enlightened pub lic opinion in favour of the People's.` Charter ?" whe ther you deem it impracticable to'. employ. mission aries, to circulate information, to , forth libraries, to erect halls and schools ? or whether you consider the obtaining of your rights not worth one penny per week ? If so, then you will act. wiSely in condemning the " new move." But if it should happen to be other . - yotir calm judgment's should approve of those objectswill you still refuse to join the " National As sociation for promoting the political' and social improye meat of the people ?" We think not ; but it is for you . to decide. It is for you to determine whether, in en deavouring "to establish in one general body persons of all creeds and classes,"l you - would -actually be making an attempt "to check. the movement. It is for you to consider whether, by, creating "an en lightened public opinion in favour of the People's Charter,"l( you would in reality, be agitating - for " Household Suffrage." It is for you to ascertain how a plan, " concocted" in Warwick gaol by Lovett and Collins, could have had for its authors " Roebuck; and O'Connell." It is for • you to de cide whether the People's Chattel; be an'" infamous doCument," because O'Connell was . One of its " ton- Coctors." It is for you to say whether men who pre ferred the dungeon, and refused their liberty rather than desert your cause, are now worthy Only to be branded as " traitors and assassins !" It is .fOr you to consider whether those who tell you to rely op your own exertions for achieving your liberty, or those who promise to get the Charter for you, are the most: likely to lead you astray. And, lastly, it is for you to. avow whether, by extending knowledge, you would retard the progress of - Chartism. We call upon you, as honest rational men, to give these topics your consideration ; and when you have done so, openly to declare the tekilt. You may, however, object to the plan we have adopted, because it does not embrace all the measures that have been proposed for obtaining the Charter — because it does not recommend the setting .up of Chartist candidates at elections, arid exclusive dealing. True, it does neither of these ; for the very good reason, that they could not be generally practised. We know from our own experience, that there are some parts of the country where it would be utterly impossible to adopt a system of exclusive dealing,' unless by setting up co-operative store-houses; and we certainly think that if men are not able to spare one penny per week, they are not in a very fit and proper condition to start co-operative stores. We are also aware that it is 'equally impossible to find Chartist candidates to stand at every electioti—men do not see the propriety of incurring e x pense in such hopeless contests—therefore it is that these measures have not been recommended. Instead of that, however, we propose, first, to make the people Chartists; and to accomplish this good work, we invite the friends of 'education to aid us in extending it throughout the empite. We call upon' the contenders for moral and intellectual tests to assist us in disseminating inforination. We invite the advo cates'of freedom to join us, that we'may become strong by union, and powerful by knowledge. We solicit the' assistance of the benevolent and the humane in our at tempt to banish wretchedness arid 'misery from our shores, We call upon every individital who desires the prosperity of his, country to co-operate with its in our endeayour to elavate theconaitioreef Alie-whole people: Should this appeal to our countrtinen be made in vain, we will, nevertheless, devote our energies, and Continue our exertions to the utmost of our feeble abilities, in the proper katien of the truth-.-relying on its omnipotence for uprooting,: ignorance, vice, and ini*yi:and establishing in. their stead knowledge, virtue, and happiness.

DEATH Ok' THE EARL OF FonTEscuE.— The death of this venerable and respected nobleman took place on Tuesday, at his seat,. Castle-hill, Devon shire. The Noble Earl was in his . eighty-ninth year, the day of his birth having been the 12th .of March, 1753. He succeeded to the title of. Baron in his thirty second year, and married, in May,> 1782, Hester, third daughter of the celebrated Eight Hon. George Grenville, of the Buckinghani family, by whom he has left a large number of descendants. His eldest sell, the present Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, is now Earl Fortescue, who has several children, the eldest of whom, not: Viscount Ebrington, is candidate on the. Liberal side—that which the consistent Fortescues have ever su pperted — for the borough of Plymouth. T he other Surviv ing children of e 1 a are—the ec ; Ladyo Dowager Catherineg el Lady o mother of Bing, e s Lt th he e E la a te rl E o a f rl L (Ports mouth) • Lady Anne Wilbraham, wife of th e M em b er for Cheshire ; the Hon. George ForteSene, who married a daughter • of the Earl of Harrowby . ; Lady Mary Ham lyn «Williams ; the Hon: and Rev. John Fortescue ; Lady - Eleanor Fortescue ; and Lady Couttenay. • RAILWAY AND STAGE CARRIAGES,—POST HORSE DUTY.—A return has been :made to the House of Commons of the amount of mileage and composition for duties On railway and stage carriages, and also the amount of post horse duty for Great 'Britain, paid in the y ears 1838,1439, and 1840. The amount of composition is trifling, and we therefore omit it. The following are the principal items for the thrte years: —Railway mileage, 1838, 36,2511. ; 1839, 70,837/. ; and 1840. 112,218/. Stage carriage mileage, 18" '494,138/. ; 1839, 497,1931.; nsl 1840, 438,0214 A reduction, in the mileage duty on stage carriages took place in October, :1839, which it was estimated would apount to 100.0001. per annum. Post-horse duty, 1838, 237,452 ; 1839, 224,4051. ; and 1840, 212,6351. It thus appears . that there has been no falling off in the stage carriage duty, except that caused by the reduction in 1839, which was diminished only by little more than half the. amount estimated. Tha falling off in the post horse duty has been about 24,800 l VIENNA, JUNE i.—The Bishop of Csanad, M.

B. GREAT MEETING AT BRISTOL. On Tuesday night a very large, itifluential, and unanimous meeting was held at Bristol, in Ryan's spacious Amphithea•rei to receive a .rferilitatiorr from -the Matrchester Anti-Corn-law League, and to consider the best means for removing the odious bread-lix. 5,000 eletters At least were present. BRIGUT, Eiaq., Of Rochdale, in an argumentative and eloquent speech, exposed the fallacies of the monopoly advo cates, and observed, that if corn was plentifid it was alWays cheap ; if it was scarce, it was dent. The only Way, thir& fore, in which the Parliament could make corn dear, was by legislati ng s o a s t o k eep i t scarce. Parliament had egi,lated to make corn scarce, and he would ask them, was that the *ay in which a patriotic Government Did legislate ref the' inter= ests of the pe o Pl e ?—(N o, 'they believe that it wai the duty of Parlianient to legislate for a portico only of the people ; to withhold from them the food which they re quired ; and impiously to imitate the judgment . of the Al mighty ? The O mn i potent R u l er of the Universe, to punish the rebelli on o f hi s people, inflicted* heiiiiyjitogitten ' t oh their the heavens were shut up For three years—no rain descended on the earth—the land crag parched—it . yielded no kindly fruits; , and the f a min e was sore. That was just ; it was the visitation of the Al m i g ht y on a rebellious people: his judgments are un erring, and man arraigned them not; but he (Mr. bright) had yet t o l earn t h at permission had been giveli to Parament to imitate His judgments, or tb (In a.S He did.—( Cheer:. ) RICHA n 1) Coktikt, Esq.,,of Manchester, after pronouncing this to be be the finest Anti-Corn-law meeting he had seen out of Liverpool, proceeded to speak upon points in question, and the applause that waited on him at times was tremendous. Perhaps one of the ablest portions of his speech was his expo- sure of three monopoly fallacies, in the first of w hi c h h e wen t on to show th e f a ll acy o f the Corn-laws offering a protection to the agricultural labourers, by ihstancing the rate of wages in the counties in this neighbourhood, which might average . Bs. a week.---( A Voice, " No, not more than 65.") Well, he would give them 2s. more, and say Bs. a week, whilst there was not a single unskilled labourer in his (Mr. Cobden's) employ who cid not receive rts, a week.—(Cheers.) The meeting would remem ber the boast of the Duke of Buckingham, that- his labourers were happy on As. a week. Now, if he were to hold up his fin ger, he might have every labourer on the Duke's estates.— ( Cheering, and cries of " So much for Buckingham.") Another fallacy was, that a repeal of the Corn-laws would force a lower diet for the peor. Now, in answer to that, he would show cut of the agriculturists' own mouths, that the present system produced that effect. At the Board of Guar dians of the Grantham union, the Duke of R u tl an d i n t h e Chair, in 1839, it was resolved that as the diet of the inde pendent labourers was now barley bread, the paupers in the union . workhouse should be placed upon the same foot • ing—(Shame, ahame)—and this was in 1e39 when win at was double what it was in 1835; but there was n o ou t cry in 1835 for a coarser di e t f or th e labourer and the pauper, but it was reserved for the period when the landlord was receiving double the price for his commodity to reduce the people to barley-bread. How, then, did the high p r i ce o f corn benefit the labourer?—(Great cheering.) Another fal lacy was that the land would be thrown out of cultivation. The labourers were, however, sufficiently informed not to be taken in with that fallacy ; wherever their lecturers had been, they found the agricultural labourers ready to run the risk of that,' as they said they would take care the land should not b e th rown of cultivation, if they would let. them have it. One of the lecturers of the League having . fallen into conversation with a waggoner, in Dorset shire, in order to test the man's opinions, had tried to frighten him with this bugaboo, but he was soon satisfied on the point, for (said Mr. Cobden) the waggoner looked up into the lec turer's face with a knowing sort of leer, and said, " but th' be'ant a goen to carry the land away be'um ?" The relation of this anecdote caused considerable amusement by the happy manner in which it. was related. HARMAN VIEGER, Esq. then moved " That the Meeting Pledges itself to support the return of such Membe rs on ly t o arliament as will vote for the repeal of the Corn-laws. (Deafening cheers.)

It was shown by competent persons before a Commit tee of the House of Commons, that the average rental of land throughout Great Britain had been trebled during the war ; but the whole power of legislation was in dm hands of the aristocracy, the House of Lords was theirs, the Members of the House' of Commons were their no minees and dependents ; the really independent men who were Members of it were too few to form a party. The aristocracy, thus possessed of power over the people, used it as all such bodies ever have used power—for their own advantage. In 1814, it was intended to pass a law. fixing the minimum price of wheat at 90s. the quarter ; from this, however, they shrunk as from a s t e p w hi c h, notwithstanding ad their power, they dared not to take. In 1815, they proposed, carried their proposal, and en acted, that 80s. the quarter should be the minimum price. They declared their purpose to be to prevent fluctuations in the price of corn, which they said would, by becoming steady, regulate the price of every other articfe of human food, and keep those prices steady ; they declared, that keeping the price of wheat at or above SOs would be much more for the advantage of the people than an unsteady price,. sometimes high and at other times very low. They fully believed that the average price never would be lower than 80s., and consequently, that the price of the quartern loaf; weighing four pounds eight ounces, would never,' upon an average, fall below a shil ling. The subject was new to the public, and they made less resistance to the measure than they otherwise would have done ; but it should never be forgotten that the approaches to the Houses of Parliament were barrir caded, and that troops in large numbers were constantly kept ready in the•vicinity ; that it was truly said at the time, that •the Act was passed under the swords, and bayonets of the Guards. • ifow well the aristocracy were disposed to do service to the people by the pretended equality to be produced and maintained by a monopoly price of food, was clearly set forth before the Committee of the House of Com mons, by 'a Member of that House, Mr. Benett, of Wilt shire, who said that a gallon loaf a week for feed, and three-pence a-week in money, was enough for a la bourer, and each member of his family ; and he added, "It is what we, the Magistrates, give them." The power to regulate the wages of labourers under the then exist ing Poor-laws, being wholly in the Justices of the Peace in the pauperised counties. Thus were the farmers' labourers doomed to a bare subsistence—to a gallon loaf a-week, and three-pence for clothes ; nothing for rent, nothing for fuel, nothing for sickness, nothing for caSualties, nothing for any purpose but bread and water; yet this declaration was cordially received by the aristocracy, and has been acted upon to the utmost. of their power ever since. It is, then, against the pretences and practices, of the aristocracy, in relation to the food prohibiting laws, that the active energies of the whole people should now be di rected, and there can be no doubt that if they be directed perseveringly and discreetly, they must succeed, and this, the master monopoly, that which sustains all other monopolies—this, the, worst of all monopolies ever eSta blished in this country—this monopoly, which aCts as by far the heaviest tax ever imposed upon the people—this monstrous monopoly, .which makes food dear, and tends to starve great numbers of the people, that . tbe landed aristocracy, the rich, may, still be more rich—this terribly, extensive monopoly, which hinders trade, commerce, and manufactures, and cripples enterprise—this mono poly, which reduces employment for the people, while it increases the price of their food, compels other nations to manufacture for themselves, or to go'without the ma nufactures of this country, which they are most desi rous to'reeeive. This absthd, mischievous, cruel monopoly, will be abolished whenever the people shall, by their conduct, show that they comprehend its iniquity, and demand that it shall be put an end to without delay.— Address of the Metropolitan Anti-Corn-law Association. EXETER IiALL MEETING. TO THE, EDITOR OF THE 4.5'11,V. Sin—l attended a meeting # last night at Ek,eter Hall, of what is called the Protestant Operative Association, the.ostensiWe 'object of whiCh,. as made known hi one. of their handbills, z tOZ` protect the throne and the altar,`' objects- which no honest-Englishman can • ohect• to. 'three -fourths of the meeting was composed o f:f ema l es . M`.Neil, of Liverpool, was the principal speaker of the evening: Nearly the whole of his speech, as well as the speeches of those who preceded him, consisted of im puting baSe and dishonest motives to the members of the Government. No disinterested person, who attended that meeting, could fail to be impressed with the conviction that it was convened to serve a political purpose ; but M‘Neil and his coadjutors are very much mistaken if they suppose that the working classes are infhieneed in their opinions of the Corn-laws by him, and those who act with him. No one could fail to observe, from what took place last night, that their No Popery cry is only hypocrisy—a mere outcry to serve party purposes:. §everal Reverend Gentlemen seemed to" ay the " flatter - sg unction to their souls," that the members of these ocieties could return Conservative Members for the metropolitan boroughs. Yet a complaint was made in their report, of the fewness of their numbers ; not num bering six hundred members' in all their Societies put together. How ridiculous, then, the idea that GOO (sup posing that they are all electors, which is very unlikely) tould turn the scale in favour of those whom they were old to vote for. I forbear noticing any more of the ob- Oervations of these Reverend declaimers. and shall con clude by saving that if Mr. M'Neil, and those who act ivith him, think to convert Roman Catholics by reviling their religion, and imputing base and wicked motives to their teachers and spiritual guides, they are mistaken—it is only to be done bycontroversy, carried on by Christian kindness and love, not by recrimination. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, GEORGE BEYERIDGE. Tottenham-court-road, June 17, 1841. • The Hon. Fox Maule will succeed Mr. Sheil as Vice-President of the Board of Trade ; the office of Under Secretary of State for the Home Department will be filled by Lord Seymour, now Secretly to the Board of Control. Several changes will take place at the close of 'the Session. Among others, we believe we may include Mr. Shell's appointment to the office of Judge Advocate, as successor to Sir George Grey, who will have an ap pointment, with a seat in the Cabinet. The General Steam Navigation Company's yes - sel the Columbine, Norwood, from Rotterdam, arrived . off the Custom-house at nine o'clock A.M. yesterday, with the Dutch Mail, after a favourable passage of 24 hours. Taglioni's reception at Milan, which she was to leave on the 10th, has been most enthusiastic and flatter ing. On the 18th of last month she appeared, for the first time, in the ballet of Gitana ; and, to use her own words in a letter, which, by the kindness of a friend, ,we have before us—and a most elegant production it is— " O n m y appearance on the stage, I was received with an enthusiasm which it would be impossible to describe. There was something grave and imposing, I assure you, in appearing before an audience in this magnificent hall, crowded from roof to floor. Apres eette premiere recep tion,jai dense un pas; during which time I could scarcely hear the music, it was so overpowered by the plaudits ot' the audience."

They then shaped the Course of the vessel for RiVer Congo, and co mm ence d break : , mg out tne cargo to get at the rum, and carried on so outrageously that Captain Driscoll's lady was taken violently:ill, and for some time her life was despaired e, the English crew never for a moment ceasing their out rageous conduct. They continued at River Congo twelve days, pillaging the negro canoes that passed, taking from them their bead:, looking•glasses, paddles, and every little thing, leaving the poor negroes no alternative but to swim on shore and abandon their canoes to the tide. This .conduct they continued for some time, often taking in their boats some of the American crew, until at last the negroes becoming exasperated, assembled in force, and attacking the boats, killed an American sea man belonging to the A. E., and wounded several Eng lish. They then returned precipitately on board, and getting the brig under way, set 'sail for Cabinda. They found her Britannic Majesty's brig-of-war Persian, Lieu tenant Commander Symmes, with . the American flag flying. ,Lieutenant Symmes then came on board with an additional beat's crew, and commenced breaking out the cargo, without asking to look at the hr7g's papers, or paying any attention to Captain D.'s protestations. After ransacking the cargo four days, bursting open bales and boxes, and knocking open the kegs of powder, finding nothing they took what they pleased, each man select ing what he most fancied, and then tumbling the cargo into the hold, took to their boats, leaving the brig at liberty. " 15 days," says Captain D., " I had 17 men on board, eating and drinking the best they could find, and fur four days more the Commander and nearly nll of his men pillaging my stores and drinking my liquors, they being on very short allowance on board their awn. ves sel." The English brig kept the American flag flying all the time, and went off with it flying at their peak. The ,English officers declared they would seize i,707 AnieriCan vessel they came across, and break up tkcir trade entirely ; and, from the late accounts from til`e States, it seems they are determined to put their threat into execution. LONDON ELECTRICAL SOCIETY: TUESDAY, JUNE 15.—Received a letter from Martyn Roberts, E3q., Mem. Elec. Soc., describing some experi ments' which prove that radiation, a property of heat, is not a property_of electricity. The author conceived it possible that electricity might radiate between the mole cules of non-conchicting bodies as heat does ; but upon testing . this idea by means of a Barret's electrometer, in the'neighbourhood of a charged conductor of an electric - machine, he found " that the electric fluid cannot be trans ferred from one body to another by radiation, but that actual connection must take place." " A translation of a paper written by M. Jacobi, on some remarks made by M. Becquerel on the comparative measure of the action of two voltaic jars, one copper and zinc, and the other platinum and zinc"—M. Becquerel had attributed the su periority of the nitric acid battery to the fact that the :reaction of the concentrated nitric acid on the acidulated water gives birth to an electric current much more con siderable than that resulting from the solution of sul phate of copper on the same acidulated water. M. Ja cobi says that though recent experiments have proved that this reaction does not occur, yet " the result is so in considerable that the superiority of the platinum and zinc must be attributed ton Cause entirely distinct from this." He here gives some interesting illustrations in proof of this, together with certain formulae in illustration of the general principles laid down in his former paper. "A Descriptive Memoir of an Atmospheric Electrical Ap paratus erected over the town of Sandwich, by H. H. Esq."---This apparatus consists of three hun dred and sixty-five yards of copper wire, attached to the spires of two churches; having midway a support erected on a tall chimney. A wire proceeds from this into • the laboratory' of- Mr. Weeks, and, with proper precaution, the experimenter is enabled to operate upon the products of the formidable thunder-cloud in perfect safety. The whOle of the' firrangentents for insulation and : protection were so distinctly described, that on reading the paper we could almost fancy ourselves on the Very spot, where • the whole is. • Appended to the cenimunication were some very excellent sketches, which - are' Li the engraver's hank" for' illustrating the first number of the Society's proceedings. "A letter addressed to d. Y..Gosaiot,, Esq., • E.R.S., Mem. Elec. - Soc., by H.

It is remarkable that the figure on this was not visible till it had been exposed to the sun. After submitting to the Society a register for the month of May on the electric state of the atmos phere, from observations made by Mr. Weeks's appa ratus, the Secretary stated, that amongst the papers which are received, but- must be deferred to the next Meeting, is one from Andrew Cropc, Esq., Mem, Eke.

WHAT MUST THE MONOPOLISTS GAIN TO GET OFFIpE?—The House of Commons about to be dissolved contains a majority of fifty in favour of free trade and cheap .bread among the Members sent f rom Ireland and Scotland. The monopolists do not hope to alter this state of things as it regards these portions of 'the kingdom ; but, say : they, " We will more than counteract this majority in.'England, and so place our selves in power." How is this to be done ? The mono polists have already every vote that they can get from the counties, and, therefore, their only hope must be from the towns. How utterly vain such a hope is, the following figures will derhonstrate :-- Members for Englund and Wales, 500.

The Ear, of WINCHILSEA said it was his intention to propose an amendment by striking out the two last lines Of clause 3 , -and if the amendment was re jectedi he should • i.ropose that the third clause be struck out altogether. After a feW words from Lord. ABINGER in support, of the amendment, Lord DEN MAN said he was extremely unwilli'i to take any part • or_ a question relating the amenclmeo of the criminal law. ot:less he distinctly saw tlic4 the ilotie of Lords was determ'ned to pass the amendments suggested, because he felt the utmost inconvenience, if, as a le gi: laior, he should oppose a law • which afterwards, as a judge, he might' 1)4. bound to can into effect.

But lice must say, he thought when the House of Common s had sanctioned a _ principle az to the • offence tin general, and wizen • their - Lordships also had sanc tioned a principle RA to the offence in general, it was - a monstrous anomaly that capital punishments should be kept alive with regard to any particular mode of the:Offence that might be brought betbre a Judge.-- (Hear, hear.)

In a case which had been tried at GloucesterbeforeMr Baron Bolland, three men were tried for the offence of rape, and the jury returned a verdict of acquittal uport the tint indictment, but the Learned Co.-inset put in the plea of autrtybis acquit, and upon that objection they were released. There was no doubt that the ac quittal in that. 'case was an improper one. Still he thought that such questions ought not to he put repeatedly to Jurors.—(Hear, hear.) •No doubt a genscientions objection had in some cases defeated jus tice. He confessed that it appeared to him that it would be injurious tOinake this single exception. It was one • to which the Ministers of the law would feel the greatest objection. He had no wish to press their opinions against the decision of their Lordships ; •but as he had found that the opittiOns and representations •of the Judges had had 'goat weight with their Lordships, •he would take.the li berty of suggesting that before this clause . was passed, himself and his. Noble Friend (Lord Abinger) should have an opportunity of conferring with the Judges, and ascertaining their opinion. He would have re ftained from making those observat:ons, had he not filt that the general principle being once carried, no small slid accidental eirctinte:ince , should be suffered to iuter fere with it. : The Earl of WICKLOW opposed the amendment, on the ground that there were grades of criminality in the Otft - sita; that in some same • forms 'Wiss. aggravated, and in ithcrs 'uf less 'impOrtanO.
