Viscount DUNCANNON. The Bill was read a third time and passed. The AcYroptiation Bill was read a third time and passed .TUSTICE BILL. The Marquis Of NOTIMAN73Y moved the third read ing. of the CrirainM Justice The Earl of WILTON said he shen:ld strenuously op pose this Bill on account of a certain g 7ntleman con nected with Manchester (as we understooc.l, who, if this Bill passed, would be visited with gross' injustice. He (the Earl of Wilton) should therefore move that 3:."a -chester should be exempted from the operation of the Bill. The LORD CHANCELLOR said the claims of the gentleman; whose cause the Noble Earl had advocated, had been considered in the House of Commons and rejected. He thought the claims of one individual ought not to deprive the public of the benefit of a mea sure which, as a general measure, he thought none of their Lordships opposed. The Duke of WELLINGTON said the Noble and Learned Lord opposite (Lord Brougham) had always held, that when such reforms as these took place, care should be taken that the parties who were affeCted by them, should have compensation. He (the Duke Of Wellington) thought there never was a stronger case than this. He advised their Lordships never to consenf to be the means of inflicting injustice. Lord BROUGh743I said there was no difference as to the principle entertaiL'l by the Noble Duke and himself; the difference lay in the 'znuinion of its application. The gentleman to whom t fey were referring held his situation at the pleasure of certain individuals, it was not a permanent situation. Lord LYNDHURST said they h, granted, compen sation to the clerks of the Magistrate' of Birmingham and Warwick, and he could not see how they could ex clude from compensation the gentleman was clerk to the Magistrates in Manchester, and who hau l held his office for upwards of 35 years. The Slarquis of NORMANBY said he thought . 1111 no Noble Lord who left that House, on Friday evening; supposed that this subject would be again brought on for discussion this evening. —(Hear, hear.) He thought their Lordships did not understand the situation which this Gentleman held. He was clerk to the stipendiary Ma gistrates. Now suppose the Magistrate was to die, this gentleman, holding a situation at the pleasure of one per son, might, thereby, be deprived of it. How, then, was he entitled to a compensation ? Lord ABINGER said he had known the gentleman to whom reference had been made, all his life, and he had held his situation under several stipendiary Magistrates, and he had given satisfaction to them all. His was a public situation, and he had filled it to the satisfaction of all parties. He (Lord Abinger) thought if they gave compensation to one they ought to give it to another. The Earl of RADNOR said it was understood on Friday evening that this discussion would not be brought on again, and he understood the Noble Earl (Wilton) when on his legs, to have said so. • The Earl of WILTON.—No, no ; I did not. The Earl of RADNOR.—Then it was generally un derstood by many Noble Lords on the opposite side of the House, that it would not be brought on again. The Noble Lord who spoke last, said that justice ought to be done to this gentleman, by giving him compensation. Why did not the Noble Lord propose compensation ? The Noble Lord was willing to do injustice to the people of Birmingham and Warwick, to give compensa tion to this one person.—(Hear, hear.) After a few words from the Earl of Warwick, the Marquis of Salisbury, and the Marquis of Normanby. The Earl of WICKLOW said that he had voted against his Noble Friend the Earl of Wilton, but he fully understood that this subject was to be brought on again this evening. The Marquis of NORMANBY said that he wished their Lordships not to divide without knowing that by agreeing to the proposed amendment they would alter a money clause, the clause being one of compensation. Lord LYNDHURST said the effect of the amendment would be simply to withdraw Manchester from the opera tion of the Bill, and surely their privileges were not to be checked in that respect because the clause was a compen sation clause. Their Lordships then divided— Contents Non -contents Majority for the amendment —34 Bill read a third time and passed. POOR-LAWS (IRELAND). The Marquis of WESTMEATH wished. to ask the Noble Marquis opposite a question relative to the late proceedings in the Clonmel Union. It appeared that Mr. Stanley and Mr. Nichols had left the responsibility of those proceedings upon Mr. Hawley,Hancock, and Mr. Phelun ; and he now wished to know; whether the Government intended to retain those Marquis in office. With regard to Mr. Phelan, he (the West meath) should say, after having carefully weighedcluistf evidence, that unless he was much mistaken, the l man had grossly prevaricated when examineda gentle man had Lordships. The Marquis of NORMANBY complained of the manner in which the Noble Marquis u p had mixed ques tions and assumption s . He did not t hink , however, tha that was the time for entering into an ekamination of those assumptions, and he should therefore content him self with saying, in reply to the question of the Noble Marquis. that it was not the intention of the Government to dismiss any of the gentlemen named from their situa tions. The Marquis of WES TMEATH—Then I wish the Noble Marquis and the Government much joy of h av i ng such functionaries under them.—(Laughter.) Loid BROUGHAM complained of the language •'which the Noble Marquis had used towards a party who had been examined as a witness in that House. He had not himself any knowledge of the conduct of the witness . in question ; but if there was any th in g to blame in that conduct let him be properly tried, and, if just, let him be punished. He thought the Noble Mayquis ought to re-consider his expressions. The Marquis of NORMANBY said that after the evidence had been lying for months on the table and left unnoticed, it was a most improper proceeding to com ment upon the characters of witnesses. The Noble Mar quis ought in his opinion to retract the language he had used. The Marquis of WESTMEATII—I cannot, I regret to say, do that consistently with my own good opinion of myself.—(Laughter.) The Earl of MOUNTCASHEL then rapidly ad vanced amidst general laughter to the table of the Hou se for the purp ose o f presenting a petition of which he had given notice. The Noble Earl having silenced some other Peers who attempted to address the House at the same time, proceeded to say that he had to present a pe tition from certain rate-payers of the Union of Fermoy. The petitioners complained that the Commission ers haft attempted to compel the guardians of the Union to purchase for a poor-house the ;barracks of Fermoy, although that building was in a ruined and dilapidated state. The guardians had, be sides, ken promised that the purchase of the building should not e , qt more than 4.900!., while the sum now den allied fin wed to 7,8001. The Noble Earl, having entered into some details upon the subject, concluded by expressing his condemnation of the conduct of the Com . missioners. The Marquis of NORMANBY thought it would be idle to enter into the merits of the statement of the Noble Earl, inasmuch as it was made up of details which it was impossible for the House at present to judge of. As it appeared that the question was to be brought before a Court of Law, he would not himself offer any opinion on the difference between the Commissioners and the guardians. b~'TheFaxl of MOUNTCASHEL exp l a i ned, and the subject dropped. SCOTCH CHURCH, The Marquis of I MEADALBANE presented 120 pe titions from different parts of Scotland signed bu- wards of thi r t y thousand p tion of Ch urc h patron ons, p r aying for the aboli age ers y p in Scotland. Th e N o bl e Marquis said h e h a d now p re sented upwards of 220 pe titions on this subject, The Earl of ABERDEEN would ask the Noble Mar quis whether he supported the prayer of the pe itioners. He (the Earl of Aberdeen) would rather abolish Church patronage in Scotland, then suffer such a vote as had been passed by the General Assembly. He thought that their anti-patronage agitation had been a complbte failure, and as to the petitions that had been presented, he did not believe that the generality of the people of Scotland concurred in the prayer of those petitions. The Marquis of BREADALBANE said that in answer to the Noble Earl, he would state that he concurred in the prayer of the petitioners, to a certain extent. He was a decided advocate for the principle of non-intrusion. After a few words from Lord BROUGHAM, The petitions wereC oORN-rdered to be laid on the table. LAWS. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented a petition from Marlborough, in favour of the Ministerial measures. The Earl of MOUNTCASHEL presented several pe titions from Ireland against any alteration in the corn and timber duties. WATER FOR THE METROPOLIS. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER said he should move in the next Session of Parliament for a Committee to inquire into the reports that have been made respect ing a better supply of water to the metropolis. He had no doubt from those reports, that a better supply could be obtained, with a better quality of water. No doubt a Bill would be brought in in the next session for the pur pose of effecting this better supply. Their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, June 21. The SPEAKER took the Chair shortly before three o'clock, immediately after which the Deputy Usher of the Black Rod entered, and summoned the House to the House of Peers, to hearthe Royal Assent given to up wards of 148 Bills, for which see our Lords' Report. On the motion of Viscount INGESTRE the Report of the Smithwick Chaplery Estate Bill was brought up, and the Bill read a third time and passed.

Mr. HOBHOUSE on behaltOf an Hon. Member, who was absent, presented a number of petitions from Che shire, praying for the total repeal, or 2.l odification, of the Corn-laws, and for the adoption of the Dfinisterial plans for Commercial Reform. Mr. PLUMPTRE presented petitions from Stoke Golding, in Leicestershire and other places, against any further grants to the Popish College of Maynooth. Mr. HINDLEY presented petitions from the West Riding of Yorkshire, praying for the repeal of the Corn laws, and for a revision of the tariff. Mr. RICH presented a petition from Kentish Town, praying for a reduction of the duties on Corn, Sugar, ant! Timber. IDOLATRY IN INDIA. Sir R. H. INGLIS, seeing his Right Hon. Friend the President of the Board of Control (Sir J. C. Hobhouse) in his place, begged to put some questions to him upon the subject of idolatry in India. In the first place he perceived that some returns in relation to the matter moved for by a Right Rev. Prelate in the other House ,hui not been presented to Parliament in a complete form, a zd he begged to know whether the deficiency could be ? He also wished to ask his Right Hon. Fred :whether he could state to the House that any measures hi: 4 _been taken, or were now in progress , for the purpose of :ratting an end to the connection between the Officers of East India Government, and the practice of idolatry, IC: consequenee of their being ap pointed as superintenden" over the collection of the tribute in the temples. Sir J. C. HOBHOUSE said that he would take care lionthat the returns referred to by his _ . Friend should be presented in as complete a form as po.:(cible. He also had to state that he had lately received a me2vJrandum from India, from which it appeared that measures..tvere about 4 to any to be taken for the purpose of putting an ens „ a , connection between the officers of the Co: l l ; ' 3 'v and the idolatrous practices in the natives. He . on the receipt of the memorandum, written at once to the Government of Madras, expressing his satisfaction at the measures about to be taken, and requesting that no time should be lost in carrying them into effect. He should always use his best exertions in the subject. Mr. BAINES expressed his gratitude for the exertions of the Right Hon. Gentleman in attempting to suppress practices which could not be creditable to this country. Sir R. H. INGLIS presented a petition from place in Gloucestershire, praying for Church Extensilh. Mr. LEADER presented a number of petitions from various places in the metropolis praying for a repeal of the Corn-laws and fiscal reform. Mr. WAKLEY presented a petition from Dr. James Henry, in Ireland, complaining of the conduct of the enumerators appointed to take the late census in that country. From the inquisitorial nature of their ques tions they had raised great opposition, and thus ren dered the returns imperfect. Mr. DUGDALE presented a petition from the North American Colonial Committee against any alteration of the timber duties. Mr. LEADER presented a number of petitions from Leicester and the neighbouring villages, signed amongst others by 11,200 females, in all by 17,000 persons, pray ing for the immediate abolition of the Corn-laws. Mr. HINDLEY said, seeing the Noble Lord the Se cretary for the Colonies in his place, he wished to advert to a petition which he presented the other evening from the Aborigines Society, complaining of the conduct of Colonel Gawlor. It appeared that in consequence of an alleged murder by a party of the natives in South Australia Colonel Gawlor ordered some of them to be hung. He (Mr. Hindley) wished to ask the Noble Lord what had been the conduct of the protector of the aborigines in the colony, or whether he had any powers by which he might maintain the rights of the native tribes. Lord J, RUSSELL replied in a very low tone. We understood the Noble Lord to say that the parties had been tried, and that their trial was conducted with the concurrence of the protective. Mr. THORNELY presented 52 petitions from dif ferent parts of the metropolis, praying for the repeal of the Corn-laws. . Mr. WAKLEY presented five petitions from various parts of the metropolis to the same effect. Colonel PERCEVAL presented a petition signed by 1,328 residents of Market llarborough against any alte ration in the existing Corn-laws. BILLS OF EXCHANGE BELL. On the Order of the Day for the third reading of this Bill being read, Mr. HINDLEY said, of course, he would not oppose the passing of the Bill, particularly as its operation was to be limited to the space of one year. He hoped the Bill would receive better consideration next year, than it did this. _ _ was calculated to made subser, l • E ient co to m t p h l Mr. iiim Mr.ir th li e cLoTrnR e ai l n a ed nde t d ha in t te t r h e e st usury laws were benefit TheS rei t a h l o c u l g a h ss t es t Bill . he The Bill was then read a third ti me , an d p as sed. Societies The Loan passed. ed. wAKLEy, pursuant to notice, rose to move for " A copy of any correspondence between the Lords of the Admiralty and Mr. Warner' relative to a ce r t a i n di scov ery ,y of h said ,co p to be applicable report of t o naval Lieutenant and military tactics," also Webster, RN., on the same subject." The Hon . enleman proceeded a M r. few day's to say, that, having noticed thesubje ct since, connected with the discovery W arner, and, finding that a great deal of o sympathy was entertained in that House towards that gentleman, also finding since that time that there was a very and ing on the subject out of doors he (M r. W.) xi strong feel was anxious it that the matter should not rest precisely where w a s when it was last discussed before the House. It ou ght ought not to be called a discussion, as it was merely a conversation arising out of a question which he (Mr. Wakley) had put to the Noble Lord the Mem ber for Staffordshire (Lord Ingestre). The answer of the Noble Lord to his (Mr. Wakley's) question, excited in his mind the greatest astonishment. He (Mr. W.) was exceedingly surprised that the subject had been so much neglected by the Admiralty, and he but partook of as tonishment which was almost universal. From articles published in the Times on the subject it appeared that the invention was brought under the notice of his late Majesty William IV. so far back as the year 1830. The subject was then referred to Admiral Keats, who was engaged in investigating for two years, when Admiral Hardy joined him in his examination of the invention. At a subsequent period various changes in the administration of the country took place, and Mr. Warner was led to go abroad ; on his returning, he found Sir James Graham First Lord of the Admiralty. Shortly after that period a Committee was appointed to investigate the matter, and Admiral Sir Robert Stopford was to act as chairman to the Committee. Before the labours of the Committee were brought to a conclusion, the Admiral went to take the command in the Mediterranean. Ultimately; however, Viscount Mel bourne's attention was called to the subject, and Lieut. Webster, R.N., was appointed to make an investigation, and report on the matter, and it was to that report that he (Mr. Wakley) wished to call the attention of the House. Viscount Melbourne concurred in the appoint- I ment of Lieutenant Webster, who made his report in 1839, a period now of very nearly two years since. 1 That report Lord Melbourne referred to the since. 1 Board ; yet on a recent application the sec retary of l Lord Melbourne informed Lieut. Webster that Lord Melbourne had received no report whatever from the Admiralty. This was a mode of conducting the business of the country which he (Mr. Wakley) was at a loss to comprehend, and was not even calculated to raise in the public mind a feeling of respect for the Lords of the Admiralty.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Wakley) had never witnessed any of the experiments, and was therefore incapable of forming any opinion on them, his opinion was founded upon the opinions and representations of others ; but those opinions had been brought forward in so tang ible a I shape that it was utterly impossible that they should fail to make a . strong impression on the public mind. What he (Mr. W.) was anxious for was that the House should be put in possession of the report which Lieutenant Webster presented to to the Admiralty. He thought the House was entitled to see it. The Hon. Gentleman then read some extracts from the report, in which Lieut. Webster stated that he was convinced of the efficacy of the invention, and that it would vest the sovereignty of the sea in the hands of the first Power that adopted it; that he was convinced that it was impossible for any thing that floated to resist it, either in its immediate vicinity, or within a range of five or six miles, and that one hundred sail of the line would be useless against a vessel so constructed. The report then proceeded to eulog ise Capt. Warner for his forbearance and patience undr the neglect he had suffered and difficulties that had encountered him, and concluded by entreating their Lordships not to neglect the man on whom the safety of the country de pended. Subsequently Lieut. Webster addressed a letter to Sir W. Parker on the subject, in which, after again urging the claims of the inventor and the merit of the invention, he said that the responsibility of neglecting it would rest not with him, but with those who might have to answer for their conduct to the British nation. This was the report of the officer, who, under the sanction of Lord Melbourne, was appointed to make the investigation, and to report upon it. And how was Captain Warner treated ? If he had been the greatest imposter he could not have been treated with greater neglect ; and Lieutenant Webster, an officer in her Majesty's service, met with similar treatment. Was it fa i r under the circumstances that the matter should have been shelved from that day to this ? But other parties had been treated worse than these gentlemen, and they were the British public. Captain Warner did not blame Lord Melbourne, but the Lords of the Admiralty; and he (Mr. Wakley) much regretted that although notice had been given of the motion not one of them was then present. He did not desire to make any specific motion on the subject, but he thought Capt. Warner ought to be informed that the House sympathised with his case, which might prevent his carrying his in vention to a foreign country. Treatment of this descrip tion was but - too frequently the fate of ingenious men ; they were regarded as fools or fanatics, and their projects denounced as folly by those who would not take the trouble to understand them. If any man had said but a short time ago that a vessel could sail from America to England in eleven days, he would have been called a fool and madman. He (Mr. W.) would beg the House to reinember that the experiment in February had taken plena in the pre sence of Sir R. Peel, Sir H. Hardinge, and Sir G. Mur ray. One of these gentlemen, Sir G. Murray, said that Captain Warner was a man whose frankness of manners, intelligence of conversation, and whole deport ment were of a nature to inspire confidence, and that his practical knowledge afforded the strongest grounds for belief that his expectations would, to a great extent at least, i£ not wholly, be accomplished. Since he (Mr. Wakley) had last noticed the subject, he had seen an officer who was present at the experiment, and he had learnt • from him , _ as well as from other accounts, that instead of the statements respect ing it being beyond the truth they were actually far below it.. Under these circumstances he was anxious that the report should be laid before the House, and he trusted that in another Parliament Cap tain Warner would be rescued from the hands of the Lords of the Admiralty.—(Hear, hear.) It had been reported, upon what he (Mr. Wakley) be lieved to be good authority, that Mr. Warner had been offered 300,0001. for his discovery by a fo reign Government ; and probably that discussion might induce others to - offer still larger sums, but from the past conduct of Mr. Warner, he (Mr. Wakley) had no fear of him. He did not believe that three times the sum would induce him to do anything which could prove injurious to his native country. Still he temptation ought to be removed • and the Noble L 0r ,..1 (Lord J. Russell) should assure the House that the matter e . l lould now be taken up in a fair and impartial spi rit,to the pubLl He w i t h a L L,termination to do justice to the inventor and (Mr. Wakley) should then be f perfectly content ; bit unless something of the kind e would take care to urge were said he hoped the o.9us the question upon the considenition of the Government. The Hon. Gentleman concluded by moving for a copy of the correspondence between the first Lord of the Trea sury and Mr. Warner, as he understo;:i there had been no correspondence between Mr. Warner and the Lords of the Admiralty. Sir G. SINCLAIR seconded the motion. Lord J. RUSSELL said that he was very imperfectly informed upon the subject ; and he regretted, therefore, the absence of any of his Hon. Friends at the Admiralty. He certainly wished that the House should not agree to a motion for the production of any correspondence relating to the discovery at that moment, or until they had heard the explanations of thoge who were pro fessionally acquainted with the subject. Even if it were ad mitted that Mr. Warner had been unfairly treated, and that he were entitled to a large sum for his discovery, still it might not be for the advantage of the country that the correspondence should be furnished. He hoped, therefore, that the motion would not be pressed. tie had reason to believe, from the information he had ' - iced, that Lieutenant Webster, who had made rect. a rep, est on the subject, was not the person originally -i. appointed by the First Lord of th e the Board of Admiralty, for the Treasury ' e - ' meet ing the investigation ; but that purpose of con, .. coravard of his own ace...lrd, h as e the h f :al iend co o m f e M. '! artier ; and his report coula he same authority as if not, consequently, have :. (induct the undertaking. I he had been commissioned to : referred the mat- Lord Melbourne had subsequently w atered into a John Rus ter to Sir W. Parker, who had .. negotiation with Mr. Warner. He (Loruloi.x7t sell) bad always understood that the upon p which that neg otiation had terminated unsucc7ss" fully was a difference of opinion as to the propriety of Mr. Warner's communicating the means by which he produced the alleged effect. Mr. Warner was unwilling to communicate the secret ; while Sir W. Parker thought such a communication was necessary, in order to ascertain to what extent the dis covery could be made available. He (Lord J. Russell) could not say whether or not Sir William Parker were right, or what was the nature of the conditions required between the parties. He thought it better that the question should again be raised in the presence of persons who might be able to speak from their own knowledge upon the subject, and that they should not now insist upon the production of any correspondence. He knew of no good which could result from such a course. He certainly thought that some explanation should be given upon the matter which might satisfy the . House and the country, and that some further negotia tions should be commenced with Mr. Warner—(Hear) — but he should repeat that he did not think the matter should be pressed upon that occasion. Sir ROBERT INGLIS said he would not trespass upon the attention of the House, lint he owed it to Mr. Warner to say that he had seen two letters from an individual, second only as an authority . to the Duke of Wellington, giving a strong opinion in favour of the invention.—(Hear, hear.) After what had fallen from the Noble Lord, he wo not recommend the Hon. Gentleman to press his mots ' Viscount INGESTRE could not but regret that t is subject had received so little attention from her Majes ty's Government. It was neither proper nor decent that none of the Lords of the Admiralty should be present on that occasion.—(Hear, hear.) He had before stated, and he was still of opinion, that that House was not the proper place for such a discussion, but he regretted that so important an invention should be lost to the coun try, through the apathy of the Government. The Admi ralty had treated the inventor as an enthusiast if not a madman. Perhaps he (Lord Ingestre) would be stigmatised as an imposter, who was bereft of all under standing. Thisinvention demanded the attention of what ever Government might be entrusted with the affairs of the country.—(Hear, hear.) He was quite confident that it all the neglect and delay which had taken place on thi: subject, getting rid of it at one time, and only hall listening to it at another, instead of boldly facing it in order to see w hether it was worth y of the attention of Government or not—if that conduct were known throughout the country, he was confident that it would have a very great effect upon the trial of her Ma jesty's Ministers in the appeal which was shortly to be made. He thought that the inventor of this machine had been treated with great neglect, and that he was entitled to the gratitude of the country . for the forbearance he had shown with respect to his invention. He thought that enough had been proved t warrant inquiries, which he trusted would take place o . The Report having printed, he did not see why it should not be laid before the House ; and if the Hon. Member for Finsbury per severed in his motion, he should certainly vote with him. Mr. COWPER regretted that the motion had been made, and trusted that the Hon. Member for Finsbury would not persevere in moving for the correspondence. He also thought the report of Lieutenant Webster, not being official, ought not to be produced. Mr. PLUMPTRE thought that the House and the country would not be satisfied, unless some assurance was given that the benefits of this invention should not be lost to the country. Mr. WAKLEY could assure the House that the only reason for his bringing the subject before it was, that Mr. Warner, whom he did not know, might understand that there was sympathy for him in the House of Com mons, though there was not at the Admiralty. He was much rejoiced at the expression of feeling which had taken place in the House, and after what the Noble `Lord had said, he would withdraw his motion, leaving it to others, in another House of Parliament, to bring the subject forward again. Lord INGESTRE stated that if he had the honour of a seat in the next Parliament, he should feel it his duty to bring the subject under the consideration of the House. After a few observations from Colonel ANSON, the motion was withdra r On the moti on o f L or d J.

RUSSELL appeared at the Bar, and read her Majesty's answer to the address of the House on this subject ; it was to the effect that her Majesty bad received the Address of the House, and that she. would be graciously pleased to comply with its request as soon as Parliament would provide her with the means of of doing so. Messengers from the Lords brought down a message informing the House that their Lordships had agreed to several Bills without amendment, and requesting the House to communicate to their Lordships a copy of the Report of the Select Committee to consider whether it was expedient to invest the Board of Trade with a discre tionary power in cases of railway accidents.—Agreed to. The House then Adjourned at a Quarter to Seven o'Clock. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—Whenever a rumour arises, the falsehood and absurdity . of which are more than usually glaring, that rumour is sure to find its way instinctively . to the office of the Times, and fix in the congenial cranium of the editor. Had Virgil lived in these days, he would certainly have concluded his celebrated description of the gradual progress, extension, and exaggeration of an empty rumour, by fixing Printing-house-square as the terminus where, in the shape of " a thundering lie," it reaches its fullest possible size and attains its most perfect maturity. The falsehood that is conceived in the Carlton, and wafted in a whisper from the knaves of the West to the wise men of the East, no sooner reaches the latter than a bold front is put upon it at once—for there is no " fabric," however " baseless," or base, that may not find a " local habitation" in the office of the Times newspaper. To talk of the process of hatching by steam as a new invention is utterly absurd, when it is remembered to what an extent and for how long a period the steam-press of the Times has been accustomed to hatch ; and, what is more won derful than all, the eggs it has chosen for the pur pose have generally been selected from mares'-nests. It is certainly from a nest of this description that the Times obtained the egg from which it contrived to hatch on Saturday a paragraph relating to the City of London election, alleging the probability of the retire ment of two of the Liberal candidates. That the Times is, as it declares itself, " fully prepared to hear of such a course being taken," may be true enough ; for its ready circulation of false reports proves that it is "fully prepared to hear" and to repeat the grossest absurdities. The reason alleged for the probable re tirement of two of the Liberal candidates is quite in keeping with the statement itself ; the cause assigned being that the citizens are determined not to have Lord John Russell as their representative. Now, if this were true, it might be a reason why his Lordship should re tire ; but certainly the absence of all prospect of suc cess for him can impose no necessity whatever on the other Liberal candidates to withdraw from the contest. If four men were going to row in one boat, the certainty that a particular one of the four would be drowned might be a reason for that one not joining in the trip, but it would not warrant two others of the party in keeping away out of regard to their own personal safety. STANDARD.—Poor Lord Plunket—he has been dis missed by his friends—no, dismissal is too soft a word—he has been " driven by absolute compulsion" and " open insult"—he has been "driven ignominiously" from the paradise of place in short, he has 'been to use a familiar phrase, " Ithked out," and by his own party, a much more signal disgrace than the kicking out with his party which awaited him in a few days. This is a Lase to "move tile hearts of " barbarous people ;" but we know not how it, hap pens that we cannot weep over the disaster of the prosecutor of Robert Emmett, and the author of the ex officios of 1823 ; either we are not sufficiently barbarous, or as " sour-natured as Launcelot'S" mute attendant— s() it is we have no tears to shed over the fall of Lord Plunket. The Freeman's Journal' has a pretty shrewd guess at the motive of the piteous sacrifice : " Two FOREIGNERS are already in receipt of 4,000/, of our money, as retiting Chancellors. Is it to add another to the list of place-made absentees that Lord Melbourne is attempting to throw this new burthen upon us ? What would they be at ? Are they trying to beat us in the race of argument in favour of repeal? Or are they anxious that not only English legis lation, but Englishmen in every or in any station should become an object of detestation—a whetstone of international hatred ?" We say nothing of such phrases as foreigners, - applied to the people of Great Britain, employed by persons who affected to make the pretended use of the word aliens an apology for rebellion ; and our money, as de scribing the imperial , treasury 'to which Ireland is cer tainly not the most liberal contributor ; nor do we , - anvass the justice of visiting in " detestation " upon the persons of Englishmen, the usurpation (if it must be so) of the Irish seals by a Scotchman. All this we pass over but we would wish to know why the Dublin Freeman's Journal assumes that the change of which it speaks will cause an addition to the Pension List. If Lord Plunket's conduct, or incapacity, has been sitch as to justify . his compulsory extrusion, he is entitled to no pension. We are not aware of a Chancellor pensioned under similar circum stances. It is very right that when a man is taken from the bar for political purposes he should not be ,eft to suffer utter ruin by the fall of his party without any fault of his. Were not this rule ob served, it would be sometimes difficult for a party .:oming into office to find a suitable Chancellor, and therefore, we suppose, it is, that the law has not limited lie number of Dowagers that may thus be provided for. But see what must be the effect of extending the advan tage to the Chancellors dismissed .by their own party, whether for misconduct or incompetency, in the system of jobbing, or through mere caprice ? The country may )e saddled with any number of Dowagers. Week after week the most unfit men may be placed on the wool sack, merely as a qualification for 4,0001. a-year. Yes, Ind this would be practised by such men as the pre sent Ministers, as any one may see by the robbery of :he miserable pension fund for Sir John Newport's benefit. The party in power, we admit, have a right to pension one Chancellor ; and we rejoice that, as in few days they will have that one to pension, Sir inhji. Campbell Is to be the man—because, though we io not a dmire his politics, we know him to be im- !). better man, in every quality, than Lord Noble Lord; mentioned, plainly agrees -npieuanskuerta.blyT The with us in the c onviction that but one Chancellor can properly be pensioned by one Government. Hence the Tony o f his tenacity of office , and the " Mandrake gcream" uttered when he s torn from the obj ect of his rove.

L ogi) p 241 THELMERSTON'S ADDRESS TO FZ:ECTORS OF TIVERTON. • TivienTox, lass 19.- 1 4 ;: and Lady Palmerston arrived here on Wednesday night , and put ..")at the Three Tuns Inn. Their reception was enthusiastic in the h::hest degree. Most of the leading Reformers of the town and neighbourhood awaited their arrival, and bands of music plad t town. His Lordship, with that indefatigable spirit for which he is so justly celebrated, proceeded to canvass the town the next morn ing early, anu did not close till ten at night. Yesterday he proceeded to canvass the county electors, and he did not con clude this part of the business till half-past seven to-night, when he returned to the inn, and having made very a brief din ner, afterwards proceeded to address the townspeople. There is• no doubt that his Lordship and Mr. Heatheote will be again returned. Mr. Charles Ross, of the Carlton Cinb, and ex whipper-in to Peel, who opposes him, is expected to niche a bolt of it. The Tivertomans have been an ticipating his de— parture daily, but they fancy it will no t be on horseback, as he has Tilt been able to mount a horse, having, to their infinite astonishment, gone canvassing the rural parts of the borough in a gig—a thing never heard of, even by the oldest inhabitant. Lord PatmeasToit having, on the present occasion, ex pressed an intention to address the townspeople, on the close of his canvass, an immense assemblage congregated in front of the Tuns, and, after the usual preliminaries, his Lordship then proceeded to address the electors. He ;aid :—Gentlemen, I am happy to inform you, having finished my canvass of the rural districts, thrt that canvass has been eminently successful.—(Cheers.) I say, Gentlemen, I am happy to be able to state that fart to you. because I know that thehearts and feelings of the people of Tiverton are embarked , n the cause I have the honour to support.—(Cheers,) know well that nothing could be more painful to the electors than that by any arts that might be practised—by any intimi latien which might be used, their free inclinations should be •onstmined, and that a Tory should be sent to Parliament to misrepresent the opinions of the people of Tiverton. — (Cheers.) But lam happy to say that the result of our can vass satisfies my mind that no such misfortune will happen to the borough of Tiverton.—(Great cheering.) I am convinced, Gentlemen, that the free will of the people' of this borough will have its way, and will produce the result which you desire —that the two Members will be returned to Parliament, and ;peak, upon the important crisis which is now approaching, the real sentiments of the people of this enlightened borough. Gentlemen, if anything could strike me more than another in 'he course of the canvass which I have just concluded, it would be the cordiality and heartfelt effusion of feeling and the sin cerity which has accompanied the declarations that have been made to me of the intention of the electors to give me their support at the poll. I have seen those who have given me their promises, speaking from but the bottom of thelir Fu heart s, s, and telling me that not for me, for e cause pp they would give me twenty votes, if they had them, instead of the one.—(Tremendous cheering.) lam not vain or silly mough to imagine that it is from any particular affection For me that this burst of enthusiasm has been manifested by the people ((this borough. It is for the principles which 1 support—it is for the cause of which I appear before you as the champion—(Cheers)—it isthat which does honour to him who ' -rives and to hi m who receives—(Che ers) —for I tell you fairly hat highly as I covet the honour of representing you in Par lament, I would disdain that honour if it was given me by votes extorted from electors by the intimidation of landlords or customers--(Cheer) —swaying and controlling the free opi nions of those whore the Constitution and the law has invested r b o y u g h those— I .vith I sacred trust—the exercising their free choice and will on occasions of this kind, and of declaring their own senti .nents unbiassed and uncontrolled, as to who should be the for re things not equally hav e man to represent them in Parliament.—(Great cheering.) shared by Bat I fear, Gentlemen, from things that have fallen Wer my own t observation during the short time I lave been canvassing who r o op t po ha se t come to my knowledge which I rap hardly allude to in de .ail for us e n thissentiments , I cannot bear anything haviog th semblance of per sonality, because we are fighting on public p.iwiple ; we are fighting a national cause, and it should be beneath ws to dwell on individual faults and offences.—(Hear, hear.) But I say I have too good reason to know that those sentiments which I have just expressed have not been felt by all ; that at tempts have been made that will he unsuccessful to compel honest voters in this borough to , act againet tkrir opinions and their consciences, and to give voices at the election; not in unison with the feelin of their bearts.—(A voice — " Give us the Ballot.") Gentlemen, lam fully assured that all these at tempts will fail they are indications of a falling cause—they are the straws which drowning men will catch at—they are the struggles of expiring men who feel themselves at their la t gasp, or perhaps I should say that they are the instinctive feelings of that monopoly which, in spite of our Reform Bill, still animates a portion of this borough, and, as they say, that which is bred in the bone will show itself in the flesh. —(Laughter and cheers. ) Not only have these unworthy_ acts been resorted to, but the greatest misrepresentations have been employed to sway the opinions of the electors. Alen as hearty and as sincere in the cause as any whom I•now have now tie honour to address, ba...e been misrepresented as having alte:ed Cleir opinion, and hay.n; s•ipporte.l the adverse party ; this calumny has been amply refuted, for these persons have nobly asserted their honour arid their adherence to their old sentiments and opinions.— ( A voice—" Give them the Ballot ") Now, Gentlemen, I stated to you on a former evening the general grounds upon which we proposed to Parliament certain measures which we considered essential to the good of the nation • and I will not again on this occasion go over the same ground, but I will nevertheless touch shortly on some of these topics. I see it stated in a paper which has been put into my hand—it is an address to the electors of the northern division of Devon by Mr. Buck—that we, the Government, have made an un justifiable attack on agriculture—that is, that the measure which we intended to propose, and, be it remarked,Gcntlemen, that we have not been allowed to propose it, and that the Opposition have not dared to enter the field with us on a fair discussion of the Corn-laws ; they have not ventured to come face to face to hear cur opinions and our reasons, but we are told that these measures, that we have announced to Par liament. are an insidious attack on the agriculturist. In answer to that I have to say, that within the last two days I have been riding over the farms in the neighbourhood of Tiverton, and I have ascertained that that is not the opinion of the farmers of Tiverton.—(Cheers.) I am sure, if they thought that I belonged to a Government that had made an un just attack, or any attack at all, upon the agricultural interests of the county, I should not have received that hearty and cord;al welcome which I have. 1 say, Gentlemen, that our measure, in stead of being an attack upon the agriculturists, is destined to preserve them from changes much to their disadvantage; for can any man who looks to this great country—who sees how large a portion of the people are engaged in manufactures—who re flects for a moment that to live and bring up their families in comfort they must find markets abroad—that they cannot find those markets unless we take the produce of foreign countries—of those countries which grow nothing but corn— can any man, who looks at these things, believe that the mass of the people will long submit to a law which, by excluding the corn of the United States, and other countries that grow corn, prevents our manufacturers selling the things they make ? Can any man believe that such a law will be lasting, or that the people of England will not before long call for and compel a change in this law ? My opinion is, that if we do not change the law—if we do not make legal a system of national barter between our manufactures and the produce of other countries, the commerce of England will not only become stationary, but will go back, and you will have millions of your fellow-countrymen who are now employed in the manufac tures of England, thrown out of employment, and instead of being, as they now are, good customers to the agricultural interests of England. they will be thrown upon the land for support—( Hear, hear)—but not for support as now, by buy ing and consuming your produce, but they will be thrown upon the land as paupers, living upon the eleemosynary contributions of those farmers who are now told that the present law is essential to their existence.—(Bear, hear.) Well, then, Gentlemen, in all human affairs the great secret is to know when to make a bargain, for depend upon it that they who overstay their market are sure to be the sufferers by the delay ; and, if the farmers of England—if the landowners of England, acting upon their absurd prejudices, choosing erroneously to reject what we propose, a fixed duty of 85. per quarter—if they, thinking that fixed duty of Bs. per quarter is a bad bargain, and if they succeed in preventing it from being adopted, I venture to foretell them what will hap pen. There will arise in the manufacturing districts a feeling which the agriculturists will not be able to control. That feel ing will carry its way through Parliament, and, instead of get ting the fixed duty of Ss. per quarter, the result will probably be either a much lower .duty, or the abrogation of any duty whatever. I advise the farmers to remember what passed not many years ago, in reference to the question of Parliamentary Reform. There was a time, in 1828, when the reforming party in the House of Commons would have been content, not hoping for anything more, with what had been proposed with respect to East Retford—would have been content to have transferred the elective franchise from those boroughs convicted of bribery to tome of the large manufactyring towns in Eng land—they would have been content with a very moderate enlargement of the elective franchise.—(Hear, hear.) The Tories refused that—small as the boon was, it was too great for them to make.—( Hear, hear.) What was the consequence? Why, the Reform Bill, which swept away all the rotten bo roughs—( A voice—" Tiverton to wit")—which extinguished corporation after corporation—which extended the elective franchise to people in the towns and the counties—and which gave to you that franchise you are about to exercise.—' (Cheers.) Well, then, Gentlemen, I tell the farmers, if, in deed, they have any interest, which I will prove to you they have not—l tell the agricultural interest—l tell the land owners—not to follow the example of the Anti-Reformers of 1828, but to be wise and warned by the example of others—the cheapest experience that any man can have—l tell them to take the bargain which is now offered them, for they may be assured they may get something worse ; they never will get anything better.—( Cheers.) And I say, Gentlemen, that we who have proposed that measure, instead of being charged with making unjustifiable attacks on the agriculturists of Eng land, deserve, on the contrary, to be considered as the greate,t and the best friends of the agricultural interest. —(Cheers. ) And I should like to know, judging as well as any one can from that mysterious silence which the Tory party have preserved on this corn question—l shmild like to know what any sensible man would predict as likely to be done by them if they should come into power.—( Hear, hear, hear.) Why, what have they said? Their leaders in the House of Commons have talked in vague generalities about the sliding scale. — ( A voice " slippery.") Why, Gentlemen, you all know that a sliding scale may be anything or nothing, joist as may suit the purpose of its maker. A sliding scale may be absolute prohibition or substantially free importation with a nominal duty.—( Cheers. ) Why, that is the evil of our pre sent sliding scale, that-ist one time corn comes in at a duty of one shilling per quarter, and at another time the duty is so great that no corn can come in at all.—( Hear, hear.) But wo have had some sort of notice about this sliding scale, and if the newspapers don't deceive us one Tory candidate, who stands very high in the party to which he belongs, declared, the other day, when standing for a large manufacturing town, that he thought a duty of Ss. per quarter rather more than what he should be inclined to vote for.—( Hear, hear.) Well, Gentlemen, the Tories, to'do them justice, are very good tacti cians in this conflict of political parties, and when they find a candidate at a manufacturing town, he is for a low fixed duty, or a free trade in corn—( Hear)—but your candidate who:comes dawn to an agricultural district, or who canvasses a county, charges us with unjust attacks upon the agricultural interest, and he would rather lrse his head on the scaffold than vote for any change in the existing Corn-law. They thus set out to he all things to all men, but I say that men of that description should be nothing to any men.—(Cheers and laughter.) Now, Gentlemen, it has been stated, I believe, with regard to myself, but certainly with regard to the Government, that we pertina ciously insisted, with respect to the poor-law, in continuing the present law in all its details for ten years to come.—[A voice— " Hew was that, my Lord ?"] I'll tell you how it was. [" We don't like it at all." j I was saying that the Government had been charged with having proposed to Parliament to continue for ten years unaltered the present condition of the law. Now what is the fact ? We brought in a continuing bill, which we agreed to limit to five years, and there were entered as notices upon the erder-book fifty or sixty amendments, intended to be proposed in Committee upon the Bill by different Members of the house—( Hear, hear)—which the Government was pre pared to discuss, and to consider fairly and deliberately, ac cording to the merits of each amendment, and there were seve ral of these amendments which Lord John Russell had signified his intention to agree to.— (Hear, hear.) This discussion of the Bill, the Noble Lord proceeded to say, was cut short by the determination of the Tories to expel the Government, and its settlement was now reserved for the next Parliament. Who the Members of the Government might be would depend upon the electors of the United Kingdom ; but, said his Lordship, the future Government would have to propose to the new Par liament the renewal of that Bill, and till that verdict of the country had been pronounced, it would be idle to anticipate from which side of the House any amendments or modification would be proposed , but I can assure you that the present Go vernment, consciously convinced as we are that the main and fundamental principles of the Bill are founded on policy and justice, are quite prepared to discuss any proposition which may be made for modification of its details, and that we are not wedded to any prejudices upon the subject. I feel that upon a matter of such deep importance every subject should be considered upon its own merits, without regard to the quar ter from whence it proceeded. But, Gentlemen, never forget when you are told not to vote for Liberal Members, on account of the Poor-law Bill—do you never forget to cast into the teeth of those who hold such language to you that the leaders of the Tory party prided themselves in assistin g in carrying it.— (Cheers.) Well, Gentlemen, I will not talk to you over again Hpon that question of foreign sugar, which was the imme diate questionl on which we found ourselves in a minority , be cause am sure there can be none among you who think we were wrong in proposing to bring, what I may be allowed to call the necessaries of life, within the command of the poorer classes of society.—( Cheers.) Why, it matters nothing to the rich whether sugar be a little dearer or a little cheaper. To them it is a matter of very trifling consideration ; but there are many millions of people in this country, there are many families whose comfort depends upon their power to purchase that which was formerly a luxury, but which the improved habits of mo dern civilisation have made almost a necessary of life even to the poorest and humblest members of the community. For whose benefit was it, Gentlemen, that we were told not to pass a measure that woald let in foreign sugar ? Why the \Vest Indian planters—( Hear, hear) —men for whom they had voted 20 millions —for whom we are paying annually 800,0001. interest, and after having given them full and complote compensation for the emancipation of their slaves ; and after having told them, as every body did, and truly and justly told them, that slave labour was dearer than free labour, and that by emancipating their slaves they would be no losers, because the freeman who worked readily by his own free will would do more than the slave urged by the lash, and restrained by the m anacle.—(Cheers.) After hav ing given them this magnificent compensation—( A Voice—" It's a pity they should ever have had it") —we have been called upon to make the industrioas classes of the country submit to the privation by not being able to purchase the sugar which they want, and the cause has been unblushingly admitted to be the interest of the West Indian planter.—( Hear, hear.) Now, Gentlemen, I do not think we have forfeited our claim to the confidence of the country, because we have preferred the mil lions of independent and hard-working Englishmen to the small number of the already sufficiently compensated planters of the West Indies.—( Great cheering.) An ELECTOR here interrupted the Noble Lord by saying, " Now tell them, my Lord, if they will not permit you and the Government to reduce the duty, they shall not get the interest of the twenty millions."—( Cheers.) Lord PALMERSTON-1 believe, and firmly believe, that if that alternative, so shrewdly put by my friend below, could be offered to the majority who voted against our proposition, it is most probable that its decision would have been reversed, and we should 4ve found ourselves in a majority.—(Cheers and laughter.) Well, Gentlemen, I am really ashamed of keeping you so long.—(Cries of " No, no.") Tho Noble Lord next proceeded to advert to the advantages conferred on the coun try by the Reform Bill, and especially on the borough of Tiver ton. He referred to the particular mode in which the late cor poratiots managed the elections, which appeared greatly to amuse the audienee, He contrasted the present mode of elec tion' with the former, exhorted the electors to use their privi lege honestly and manfully against monopoly in every shape, and concluded a speech of two hours' length amidst great cheering. The Noble Lord stated that he would be recalled, t 4 nature of his duties, to town on M onda y morning, but he would back egeiu with them on the da of election. . COUNTY — 7 l M ' -- Lbw . ARRIVAL OF MR. O'CONNELL. The contest in this county will be one of the m olt im portant in the Empire.

The results are described in the subs joined letter from a Correspondent of the Morning Register. Already victory is certain. The principal stronghold of the Irish Orange faction will once more be emancipated from thrAidiß Coell arrived here CARLOW, Fitinsor EvOPT,;* —l gt . p at nine o'clock an ednesday night, Vere the people to see and hear him, that several thousandi remained in the street up to that hour, who, upon being informed that he was about to enter the town, went out to meet him, and greeted him with the most enthusiastic plaudits. Upon his arrival at Hanlon's Hotel he addressed the people. He told them that the triumph of liberty awl eood government not only. in the British Empire, but throughout Europe, depended at the present mernerr to on he aen of Carlow. If liberty and free i esti , utions trium si le- lain, they weu.d trium t h throughout Europe ; and on the other hand, if the base and cruel oligarchy which trans pled upon popular rights, should gain an ascend,ncy in those countries, the despots of other nations would be able to play the tyrant with impunity, and millions upon millions would continue to groan under the iron yoke of the most cruel des potism. The present was a struggle between the people and the oligarchy which had trampled upon them both in England and Ireland, for ages, and he had come to Carlow to tell the honest people there, that the eternal honour and glory of put ting an end to that cruel despotism, was reserved for them, and that after-ages would look back to the men of Carlow as the true emancipators of their country. It an end were put to Orange supremacy in Carlow, it could hardly raise its head in any other pert of Ireland. They all knew that his son was a candidate fur the representation of the county ; he had come there to canvass fur him, and all lie wanted the honest elec tors to do was, to vote according to the dictates of their own consciences—just in the same way as if they had no landlord, or any other earthly potter to coerce them, and he pro mised them, in the face of heaven, that if any elector should be persecuted, or injured in any way, for the honest exercise of his franchise, he should have full indemnity to the last farthing, if he (Mr. O'Connell) was to go round through Eng land and Ireland and beg it from house to house. For he had to tell them they were fighting the battle of the starving English artisan, who wanted cheap bread and employment, as well as their own.—(Cheers.) There should be oee uni versal rally of the friends of freedom in both countries, and he promised them that, if success attended their efforts in Car low, there was little doubt that they would be triumphant else. where. He called upon the non electors to influence those who had votes to exercise their right of franchise for the good of their country, in opposition to any dread of persecution or pecuniary intere't they might have.—ln a word, lie called upon all, after due reflection, to vote as their consciences would dic tate, regardless of consequences, • for he again assured them that no man should suffer for having voted honestly. It is un necessary to say that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman was re ceived with the most unbounded and enthusiastic applause. Yesterday (Thursday ), Mr. O'Connell, accompanied by his son John, Mr. Steele, Mr. Reynolds, Mr. O'Neil Daunt. Mr. Fitzgerald, the Rev. Mr. Maher, &c., proceeded to the fair of St. Mullins, in which barony the great strength of Bruen's sup porters reside. It was known for some days previously that Mr. O'Connell would attend the fair ; and the people from the districts of Kilkenny, Wexford, and Wicklow, which adjoin Callow, flocked in thousands to meet him. Perhaps never be fore was such a multitude congregated in the same place—the numbers have been estimated at front 80,000 to 100,000. some 2,000 or 3,000 of whom were mounted upon excellent horses, and all manifested a degree of decorum and propriety of conduct which was perfectly illustrative of the great moral revolution caused by the spread of temperance principles. 11Ir. O'Connell proceeded to a field adjoining the town, and was addressing the immense multitude in language similar to that of the preceding evening in Carlow, when Mr. Charles Doyne, an Orange Magistrate, at the head of about 100 men, entered the same field, and proceeded to address his followers by calling on them to beware of demagogues, to support their landlords, &c., and thus the rival orators con tinue" for a few minutes, when the hearers of Doyne's vapid trash gradually fell off and came over to O'Connell's side of the field, where they were delighted by wit, humour, and elo quence. Some of the people became indignant at Doyne's conduct, and expressed their contempt for him by groans and hisses ; and, although no violence was offered to him, he re quested of Mr. Steele and Mr. John O'Connell to conduct him safely out of the town, which request they at once complied with. Mr. O'Connell and his friends returned at a late hour to Car low, and have been all the day sitting in Committee, making preparations for the movements of next week. The success of young O'Connell is now beyond the possibility of a doubt ; and it is the general opinion that Mr. 13rownlow Layard will walk in for the borough without a contest. The scene at St. Mullins is thus described by the Correspon dent of the Kilkenny Journal : The rain began to fall in torrents, and continued to descend for several hours. The day became extremely inclement, but the crowds remained as motionless as if the sun were shining down upon them. There were several tents on the ground, but while Mr. O'Connell was present they were untenanted. Mr. O'Coset ELL rose, and the cheering, for several mi nutes, was deafening. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman stated, that as the weather was so unfavourable fur the objects which had brought them there, although, blessed be God, it would be so beneficial to those whose hopes depended on the harvest, he should not detain them long. He would attend a second sime in St. Mullins on Monday next, when he would address them at length. Mr. O'Connell then proceeded to give a history of Orange atrocities, when it was announced that Charles Doyne, agent to Lady Kavanagh and Lord Beresford, was stealing away the electors from the fair-green. At the extremity of the green a small group was pointed out, in the centre ,of which was Mr. Doyne, urging them to retreat with him. When the immense crowd learned this fact, there was an immediate rush in the direction of Doyne, and he was soon effectually sur rounded. The carriage from which Mr. O'Connell had been addressing them was then drawn towards the spot where Doyne stood, or rather struggled, and. when it reached it a triumphant cheer announced the delight of the people. This was too much for Doyne. Aided by a few-drivers, he persisted in his exertions to get the electors away, and so exasperated did the multitude become, that but for the active and hazardous exer tions of Mr. John O'Connell, Mr. Steele, Father Maher, and others, as well as the .restraint felt in the presence of Mr. O'Connell, Doyne and his followers might have suffered for their daring folly. At length he succeeded in escaping, bring ing with him several of the slaves of St. Mullins. During this riotous scene, the rain fell in a blinding shower, and it was difficult to observe the exciting occurrences which were caused by Doyne's efforts to bring the electors beyond the magic influence of O'Connell's voice. When Doyne disap peared, the people resumed their places, and Mr. O'Connell continued his address. He commented strongly on the das tardly conduct of those who were afraid to allow the words of truth to be heard. It ,was impossible to take a single note of what was said, owing to the rain. His speech produced a powerful impression. Mr. O'Neil Daunt, Rev. James Maher, Mr. Reynolds, and others, subsequently addressed the assemblage in speeches that cannot fail to be productive of the best effects. Indeed, the influence of Bruen in St. Mullins has received its first great blow. On Monday next the second will be struck. The Rev. Daniel Maher, P.P. of. St. Mullins, entertained Mr. O'Connell and a large party in the evening, after which .he Honourable and Learned Gentleman returned to Carlow. To-day Mr. O'Connell and a large number of Liberals will be in Bagenalstown, to. morrow in Rathvilly, on Monday, at Newtown, barony of St. Mullins, and on Tuesday, in Carlow. A correspondent informs us that, whilst the popular party strictly act upon the Temperance principle, and limit them selves to the healthy and plea ant beverage of tea and coffee, the Bruenite faction have opened all the public-houses, in order to tempt the people back to drunkenness, that they may the more easily degrade them into their serfs and tools. Letters from Carlow, this day, announce that the triumph of the Liberal cause is secure.—Dublin Evening Post. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. John Chivers was indicted for obtaining under false pre tences the sum of 2s. 6d. for the London Dock Company. It appeared from the evidence that it is the custom at the London Docks when labourers are engaged, to enter them in a book, from which their names are called over in the evening when they are paid. There are two sets of labourers employed at the Dock, one at the south end, the other at the north end. On the day in question 'the prisoner caused himself to be en tered at both places, and in the evening received wages for each. The prisoner, in his defence, said that he had been for some time out of work, and the day in question being Thursday, thinking there would not be much to do at the North Quay, he entered himself at the South Quay, having previously entered himself at the North. The labourers that are entered on the Thursday are generally employed throughout the week, and it was in the hope of obtaining employment for the whole week that he entered himself at both quays. Previously to the pre sent transaction he had been without work for ten slays together. The RECORDER having summed up, the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. RALLANTINE, who conducted the prosecution, said he was instructed to inform the Court that this species of fraud has been carried to a large extent in the London docks. The prisoner was sentenced to one month's imprisonment. Robert Gazeley was charged with defrauding George Trent of 255., under the following circumstances:— It appeard that the prosecutor went to Smithfield market with a horse for sale, and he met the prisoner there, and lie took a fancy to his horse, and pointed to another horse that stood near, and said it belonged to him, and that he would have a " Chop" with him, if he rive him 25s to boot and lie avreed to do so an , wou . , , handed over the amount to the prisoner, who went away ; but when the prosecutor went to take the horse that had been alluded to by the prisoner, he found he had no claim to it, and that the real owner knew nothing of the bargain that had been made. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to three months' imprisonment. William Hends, and James, alias Robert Burtt, were indicted for conspiracy. Mr. Phillips and Mr. Chambers conducted the prose cution ; Mr. Clarkson defended the prisoner liends, and Mr. Bodkin appeared for Burtt. The conspiracy imputed to the prisoners was that they had fraudulently combined together to defraud pawnbrokers by pledging watches made up for the pur pose of deception, and on which the names of Webster, Tobias, and other celebrated watchmakers were en graved, so as to further the deception by inducing a belief that they were really made by those parties. The watches were proved to be complete " counterfeits," made only "to sell," and the evidence left very little doubt that the prisoners were quite aware of the value less character of the articles, and of their intention to defraud. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the RE. CORDER ordered the prisoners to be confined in Maid. stone Gaol for six months. Some other cases that did not possess any feature of public interest were then disposed of, and the business of the Session terminated about four o'clock. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. About ten minutes past three yesterday morning, the inha bitants of Maze-pond, near Guy's Hospital, were aroused by the breaking out of a most extensive and and calamitous fire at the back of Maze-pond, in the premises of Messrs. Billiter and Harris, extensive oil-merchants, . and which joined the premises of Messrs. Fishers, leather-factors, and Mr. Jackson, cabinet-maker, all of which have been levelled to the ground, and property to the amount, it is stated, of at least 60,0001. destroyed, besides throwing about 70 men out of employment. This extensive loss is to be attributed solely to the want of water. Upwards of an hour elnoed, and from eight to ten engines were present, before a single drop could be obta'ned. Police constable Highwood, No. 102, was the first who had'his attention drawn to a thick black smoke, intermixed with a deep and lurid flame rising up at the r, ar of the houses in Maze pond. He instantly sprang his rattle, and knoeked up the in habitants. Several police.oonstablcs came to his assistance, while others started for the engines ; but before their arrival the fire raged with uncontrolled fury.
