" What the work just named supplies to the fashionable, this does to the general world of London ; as, instead of being limited, as was formerly the case, to gentry or to traders, it in cludes both, and is, therefore, really a Street Directory.' rhe intersection of the principal streets by others is pointed out—a new and good idea."—Globe, Dec 2i?.. " This edition does great credit to f - e skill and industry of the compiler. By superior arrangements and increased in formation, all its predecessors and competitors are thrown into the shade ; all other Metropolitan Directories were limited to Gentry or to Traders—this includes both ; and, by showing the intersection of the principal streets by others, great f .cility is afforded in finding the situation of any street or court in length ened thoroughfares, and may, on this account, be considered as in some measure superseding the necessity of referring to a map. We cannot afford space to enumerate the many other advantages which the present edition of the Post. Office Di rectory possesses ; but we may mention that the full Christian names of parties are given, iastead of initials; all the Counsel and Attorneys of the Metropolis are inserted, and c ot only the town residences, but the country seats of Peers and Members of Parliament; and, from the official situation held by the compiler in the Post-office, he has been enabled to avail him self of all the facilities which his appointment affords, to give the most correct and latest inGrmation."—Weekly Dispatch, Jan. 10.

It is now published complete, and comprises, among other information, a Street Directory, a Commercial Directory, a Directory for Law, Trades, and the Court (including the nobility, gentry, and others not engaged in tracts: or commerce), for Members ,of Parliament, the City (including the public functionarie , Common Councilmen, &c.); and gives, as might be expected, the most ample infor mation relative to tke Post-Office. It cannot be necessary to state in detail,' says the compiler, all the improvements effected in the present edition. Every division of the book, and every Inge, contains much that cannot be found in any other book fur tht , fear 1841. Every particle of the immense arn.runt of informa'ion contained in the following pages has been collected during the latter part of the month of November, and very much even in the present month. In the City Directory the list of Common Council is that of the members elected on the 21st of the present month. In any other Directory for 1841, the list published will, on examination, be found to be the list of those elected on December 21.,t, 1839, for the year ending on the 21st of December, 1840. And so it is in every other division of the book. Did space admit, thousands of instances could be adduced in which the information is furnished a year earlier than in any other Annual Wo..k.' We have looked over this Directory with some care; and, as far as we can judge, it appears to be the most copious and correct work of the kind hitherto published. Altogether, we can safely recom mend it as a Directory especially adapted for all classes, and country as well es town."—San, Jan. 8. " This handsome volume reflects the highest credit on the enterprise and activity of the Proprietors. Each year some improvement is effected which tends to add considerably to its usefulness and value. In addition to its farmer contents, we have this yoar a Directory for the Court, and another for each street, so that it may now be considered as complete and as serviceable for reference as it is possible such a work can he rendered. It has another recommendation,in having been cor rected up to the last week in the past year—an instance of des patch almost unprecedented, and only to have been perrormed by the excellence of the arrangements, and the rapidity with which copies were thrown off by the Proprietor's steam-presses. The Work is, in every respect, superior to any " Directory" ever yet issued in the metropolis, and is indispensable to every person engaged in trade in London or its vicinity.—Britannia, Jan. 16. . _ .

Prevous ' Street Guides' have excluded the nobility and gen try or the tradespeople—curious Street Guides ! This includes all, and is, therefore, a ' Street Directory'—the only one yet in existence—of the :Metropolis; it, besides, exhibits the inter section of the streets by each other—valuable information in long thoroughfares. Then follows the ' Commercial Direc tory.' Next the ' Trades Directory'—a most elaborate com pilation, occupying 248 pages of small print, in treble columns. The Court Directory' appears much the same as other works on the subject, unless that it is, perhaps, fuller. The ' Parlia mentary Directory' gives the idea of having been compiled expressly with the view of distancing competition. The City Directory' comes next, and is followed by the Post Office in formation, so given that any one requiring accurate and precise information on the subj,ct must refer to it. The Con veyance Directory' in which is the railway matter, some of which is as recent as any that has yet appeared in our columns. The ' Banking Directory' :concludes a volume which may be fairly considered a model of compilation, and is a high credit to the establishment from which it emanates. We find one fault with this work—its title—which is, indeed, no index to its voluminous contents, but rather gives an idea of a common London Directory, than which nothing can be more different. The Pest-office Directory in its Parliamentary in formation, in that relating to Government Offices, Ambassa dors and Consuls in the Country Towns, in its Provincial News paper table, in its Post-office Regulations, Routes of Mails, Railway Mails, and Cross-road Mails, Railway and Steam packet intelligence, and the Conveyance Directory generally, in its Banking Intelligence, and copious details on the subject of Fire and Life Assurance, contains information nearly as de sirable to Provincial as to Metropolitan residents, and should certainly bear a title more indicative Of its contents thina that of Post-office London Directory for 1841.—Railway Magazine, Jan. 16, _ _ 10° ilig rice . t nt _gnu wee' ho . 0 bf icres e- f jot , °- of hi , or rk , d ° O l t le , 0 1 : 40 a nd 11 t oo re d u c i' ol l, dope Th►s Society,in addition to the general business of Insur ance Companies, has been formed for the purpose of enabling persons of very moderate means to attain those objects hitherto confined to the more wea.thy, viz. : PUBLICATIONS.

" This volume is now one of the most complete manuals of information on all things connected with the names, profes sions, and habitations of the inhabitants of London ever pub lished. It is, indeed, a most valuable book of reference for all persons, whether in trade or rot, whose correspondence is ex tensive, and whose connections render it necessary either to have a very good memory of the locations of their ac quaintance, or to refer to a book which will at once in form them where to find them, or address letters, &c., to them. The Directory contains a Street Directory, in which the streets are alphabetically arranged; a Commercial Di rectory, in which an immensity of names is alphabetically ar ranged, without respect to trades and professions, though the trades and professions of the different persons are respectively subjoined to the names; a Trades' Directory, in which the trades are alphabetically arranged, and under each head of trade the names of the tradesmen set forth ; a Law Directory. Court Directory, Parliamentary and Banking Directories ; and, in a word, so great a mass of useful information set forth with such good judgment and arrangement, that it is almost impos sible for the most ignorant and inexpert nut to find out, in one part or other of the volume, that of which he is in search. The book possesses what is in all books a desideratum, but in a book of this kind, a sine qua non—that is, an arrangement which occasions no confusion, and which is so simple that anybody can comprehend it. It has been compiled with great labour, and is, as far as our judgment and examination of its pages go, ex tremely accurate, and remarkably free from errors."—The Time., Jan. 25. " Again come we to another work—great and magnificent almost in size as Mr. Bohn's extraordiwiry catalogue (of which more next week), the Post Office London Directory, contain ing the names of the inhabitants of all the streets in the me tropolis, according to their numbers, without regard to their being nobility, gentry, or tradesmen—then separate lists of every trade distinctly by itself—then separate lists of every per son previously named, but divided into a Commercial Directory, and a Court Directory ; to all which are added, not only every thing contained in the Court Kalendars, but a mass of inform ation connected with the Post-office, the despatch and receipt of letters ; rates of postage to every part of the world ; a list of every conveyance leaving London, whether by sea, by rail road, by coach, by canal, or waggon ; and, in fact, everything that can he desired, and ten times as much as can be expected in a work of the kind."—John Bull, Jan. 9. " Since our former notice of this publication, very consi derable additions and improvements have taken place. A Street Guide, on a somewhat novel plan, has been added—the houses running, as usual, in the order of their numbers, and the off-branching streets being noted; which furnishes the seeker with a direct guide to the localities of particular houses. Thus, in Fall-mall .- 7. Scottish (Widows' Fund) Life Assurance Society, H. M. Kean, agent. 8. Metcalfe, J., seal and copper-plate engraver, Waterloo-place. 9. Andrews, William, and Co., helmet-makers. The rames of both gentlemen and traders are also included in the Strect Guide. The information respecting the Govern ment Offices is made fuller, as was recommended ; the staff of the establishment being given as well as the chiefs. The same remark applies to the l'u'dic Offices, and the Law Directory. This last, indeed, is a %, le k by itself."—Spectator, Jan. 9. ." 'l' his vol ume c l a i ms f avo ur a ble notice, for the gred3 conve mence of some of the improvements observable in thirarrange ment of the Directory. We never before saw a Stket Guide which was not either limited to Gentry or merely occupied with Traders. This includes both ; to the manifest advantage of both. Another very obvious improvement is its manner of pointing out the intersection of the principal streets by other streets. The long line of Oxfora.street, for example, is marked by all the lesser streets that go out of it on either hand; and ithe convenience of knowing at what exact point or number of a large thoroughfare the less known street will be found, is thus easily attained. Reforms are also observable in the other di- - This is a most comprehensive and extremely useful volume, and the best of its kind that has yet been r üblished. It con tains not only the addresses of the merchants and traders throughout the metropolis, but those also of the resident house holders unconnected with trade or commerce, and is corrected up to the latest possible date, consistent with its publication at the opening of the year. Many variations from the plans of previous Street Guides have been adopted ; one of which, and a most useful one, is the strictly alphabetical arrangement of the names of persons having offices in one house, which we have ourselves tested, and found quite accurate. The method of showing where streets arc intersected by others has also been adopted, and the result adds much to the clearness anti perspicuity of arrangement of the work. In conclusion we may observe, that the exertions which have been made to render this Directory worthy of its circulation—upwards of nine thou sand in the course of the present year—deserve the support it has met with, and we can safely recommend :t to the public."— Morning Herald, Jan. 12. This useful and laborious work is now before us; it is a Street, Commercial, Trade, Law, Parliamentary, Court, City, Banking, and Conveyance Directory. This Directory differs from its precursors, inasmuch as Gentry as well as Traders are included. The Marquis of Waterford's domicile is set down as plainly as John the tinman's. The information under the head of " Post Office" is of great utility, including the latest regulations; the postage of letters to and frcm France, Central Germany, Sardinia, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, &c., is accurately stated. The Conveyance Directory gives accurate information as to Railwa)s, Coaches, Waggoos, Vessels, &c. Respecting town and country banking-houses, Assurance offices, a•:d Public Companies, there is full and valuable in formation. The arrangement of the Peerage is excellent. In the Parliamentary list the recent changes are carefully noted. The list of the Law and Public Offices, with the hours of busi ness at each, is, we think, a novel feature. 'I he list of places for registration of births, deaths, and marriages ; of law, parlia mentary, and patent agents ; of translators and short-hand writers, are, obviously, of high utility. Into a work like the Post Office Directory errors will creep ; but, as far as we have been enabled to glance through it, they appear to be few, and we may safely pronounce the present production as far surpass ing anything of the sort that has hitherto been attempted.— Sunday Times, Jan. 17.

The Work which is new presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which far some unaccountable reason have keen either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in diff2rence, lay the e (Unary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain h a bits, . would be entirely out of place an advertisement.

And defective VISION is brought to nature by.the use of newly invented SPECTACLE LENSES; immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eye-sight, either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen Kith great distinctness ; by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved. The Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS disclaim all con nexion with persons of the same name, and the sale of am ber spectacles ; the pernicious use of amber spectacles being now well kn twn to the public, and the vendor being aware of it, he has therefore altered their name, by leaving out the word " Amber,' and calling them " Patent Spectacles." Those which he terms " Patent Spectacles" are no other than those of amber ; the history and destructive use of that mate rial for Spectacles to imperfect vision is fully and most satis factorily explained by the undermentioned scientific authority: From the " Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M. D. , F. R S., &c., &c. " Amber is an indurated vegetakle juice, and not produced by the laws of crystallisation, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into frag ments ; tha workmen, too, are subject to nervous tremors in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they encounter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics ; amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to warmth, that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with flame." The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir D. Brewster and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hems, on Che mistry. The destructive effects of such a material for specta cles, to imperieet vision, may be ascertained at any respectable Optician's in London. The Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material; but which are very supe rior, and bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its original and natural state. These Spectacles, and very small Voice Conductors for deaf persons, are rly to be had at their establishments, 39, Albemarle-street (opposite the York Hotel), and 76, King William-street, Bank.

The Earl of MINTO rose in pursuance of the notice he had given to move the thanks of their Lordships to Sir Robert Stopford and the officers and men who served under him on the coast of Syria. He proposed to detain their Lordships but for a very few moments. The events were so recent that it was unnecessary for him to enter into any dated of matters that must be fresh in their Lordships' memories. It was perfectly true that on many former occasions the British fleet had been called upon to contend with more formidable enemies, and to engage in more sanguinary conflicts ; but he was quite sure their Lordships would agree with him in saying that throughout the whole of the operations on the coast of Syria there were abun dant examples to be found of the skill, of the bravers , o I the resources, and of that originality of enterprise and character which had always eminently distinguished the British Navy'.—(Hear.) But there was one feature so peculiarly distinguishing these operations, which he must be allowed to call their Lerdships' attention to. He meant the singular rapidity of execution, and the small space of time within which was comprised so many bravo and gallant enterprises, ending in such im portant re-ults. It was on the 9th of September, after 'having received the refusal of the Pacha to accept of terms that been offereLl toshins, tliat Sir Reh:•rt Siopftsrd - i - riived before BeyrOut, and without the loss of a single day, or even a single hour. he launched Commodore Napier in that career of victory and success which he had continued unremittingly to pursue. It was on the same day, the 9th of September, that Commodore Napier was landed. The contest was beeught to a glorious termination in consequence of the reduction of the fortress of Acre. Every post—every town—from Tripoli to the extremity of Syria had been reduced by one or other of the de ter.iinnents of our fleet. Commodore Napier had twice marched forward on shore and defeated and dispersed the enemy, and in the interval between those two actions he had proceeded to Sidon, which he entered, and took by storm, putting himself at the head of scarcely 1,000 men, Turks, Austrians, and British, and bringing in his train nearly 3,000 prisoners.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") lie (Lord Tinto) had dwelt a little upon the extraordinary rapidity with which these ope rations had taken place, because in this contest time had been every thing. It was not only most important to the success of their operations, but it must be obvious to their Lordships that if the contest hod been protracted to another campaign it might have been at tended with the utmost peril. If he wanted another example of the promptitude, design, and execu tion which hau characterised those operations he would refer their Lordships to the despatch of Sir Robert Stopford, of the 3.1 of October, and in that despatch the Gallant Adnii al stated that he had just. received the instructions of the Government for tho attack of the fortress, an enterprise which he before had entered upon. That re solution was taken on the 29th of October ; on the 31st, the Admiral wrote that all his arrangements were completed, that he was prepared and, in fact, that he actually did sail on that day, and in three days from the date of his letter, the fortress had fallen before Bri tish valour. The Admiral was most ably and gallantly seconded in all his operations by Admiral Beridcira, commanding the Austrian squadron, as well as by the Archduke. In his account of the eff,ir at Salon, Commodore Napier spoke in the very highest terms of the conduct of the Archduke, and at ;Acre he landed during the night, along with the marines of the squa dron, in order to secure the safety of the town and fortress. To Admiral Walker, too, much was due. His services had eminently contributed to the success which had attended her M rjesty's arms—he was in every action, and in all he had proved himself emi nently qualified for the place which he now so ably filled. He felt certain that it was unnecessary for him to add one word more in order to induce their Lordships to concur in the vote of thanks which it would be his duty to conclude by proposing, he would only once more say that throughout the whole of the operations and more especially in the last, the attack upon St. Jean d'A.cite, the precision arid accuracy of the British fire had proved that we had added a new clement of strength to the British navy, and that the talents and skill of the officers and sailors of Britain had far from deter, iorated.—( Hear, hear.) lie trusted their Lordships and the country would receive this as an earnest of what they might expect should, unfortunately, the fleet be brought into any more formidable collision, and he thought the bravery and actions of our officers and sailors had given the best answer to all those cavils and complaints of the dege neracy and decay of the British fleet which had been made in many quarters during the last year. Ou that head he would not add one word more ; all must feel that the brave men in the fleet had given a better answer to the calumny than any which he could do. He had no doubt but their Lordships would wil lingly concur in giving the thanks of the House to Admiral Stopford, the officers, and men, fir the bravery displayed by them on the 3.1 of November last. The Noble Lord then proposed that the thanks of the House should be given to Commodore Napier, and to the naval officers and captains of the fleet em ployed upon the coast of Syria ; to the seamen and Royal Marines employed in that service ; to Major-General Sr Charles Smith, and the officers and seamen vrving upon the coast ; to the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers ; to Admiral Bete dierra, Commander of the Austrian fleet ; to Admiral Walker for his gall-entry in the attack upon Acre ; and that the Lord Chancellor ehould communicate the said resolutions to Admiral Stopford. Lord COLCHESTER rose and said it must have increased the satisfaction with which the Noble Earl had proposed these resolutions, that he had a son who was one of the officers employed in the late operations upon the coast of Syria.—(Hear, hear.) The Noble Earl had so fully described the series of operations which had taken place, that he (Lord Colchester) would not trouble their Lordships by going over that ground again. He would only say that he fully concurred in all that had been said by the Noble E irl, as to the activity and dauntless courage shown by Sir Charles Napier, and in the tribute of praise which he had given to the officers and seamen for their gallantry, and especially their gallantry shown in the attack upon Acre. It had been said that the navy of England had degenerated.—(Hear, hear, from the Duke of Wellington.) Ile (Lord Colchester) was not aware that any charge had been brought against the officers and seamen employed on this service. —(Cries of " Hear, hear.") He would take this opportunity of offering his tribute of praise to Sir Robert Stop ford. Were he to go through the whole of the ser vices of that Gallant Admiral, he would have to recount to their Lordships the naval history of this country for sixty years past. That gallant ollker had received the thanks of that House for his services on previous occasions. On the 11th of June, 1794, Sir itobt. Stopford commanded one of the frigates em ployed in the fleet of Lord Howe ; he then received the thanks of the house as one of the Captains engaged in the naval action fought in that year. He had received thanks for his conduct in the expedition to Copenhagen ; and also by name for his services in the capture of the Island of Java, tire latter being an expedition of so much importance that the Governor- General him self took the command of the expedition. In 1836, full of years and honours, being then seventy years of age, he might have expected to retire from ser vice, but his country demanded his services, and now for four years he had been in command in the Mediter ranean, an employment which, from the political state of the countries on the coast, was one of the most arduous nature. In the hostilities of last summer his former skill and talent had been brought into action, and h had given new proof of V Vac skill and judgment which had ever characterized him,—the fortress of Acre, which had been deemed impreg nable, having been in a few hours reduced to ruins by the skill and courage of the British fleet under his commend. These services, in his humble opinion, demanded the warmest thanks of the House. Thanks were all that House could give, but he trusted that while promotions and decorations were bestowed upon those employed in the capture Acre, their Commander (as we understood the Noble Lord, who spoke extremely indistinctly) would receive some public mark of his Sovereign's approbation. The Duke of WELLINGTON then proceeded to address their Lordships, but spoke for some minutes before a sentence could be heard in the gallery. His Grace was understood to express his cordial approbation, of the merit of the services performed by the navy in the Mediterranean, and of the motion before the House. His Grace was then understood to advert to an ob servation that had fallen from the E srl of Minte respecting the time employed in the operations, and to express his wish that such an expression had not been used on that occasion. That was a matter entirely irrelevant to the present question, for all they had to do was to record their thanks for the services that had been performed by this glorious expedition.—(Hear, hear.s). " My Lords (said the Noble Duk e ) I have had a lr tle experience in these services , a nd I ti.i i nk ttrnay dye)ll to warn your Lordships on this Fccasiionot,vol,ci r evell must not always . expect thatseamen c o mmanded, or however gallant our s” may be, are capablo . Of engaging ' comm only witl tert, stone walls. cept the recent instance on the coast of Syria, of any fort being taken by ships, excepting two or three years ago—no longer ago—the fort of St. Jean d'Uiloa by the French fleet. That is, I think, the single in stance, though I believe something of the sort occurred at the siege of Havannah in 1763."—(Hear, hear.) He thought that the taking of Acre was a most wonder- , ful achievement, not only on account of its strength, but the short period of time in which it had been performed. The arrangement of the ships had been so admirably conducted by the Admiral that each front of the for tress was attacked at the same time. He had no hesi tation in saying that this arose from the simple dispo sition of the fleet. It was also astonishing how few men had been lost on board the fleet, he believed only about sixty. Now, how did that happen ? Why, that had been effected by the admirable manner in which both officers and men had acted, and the distance at which the fleet was placed from the fortress, under the command of the Admiral; the ships took their stations at one-third the distance the enemy supposed, and to meet which the enemy had laid their guns ; the result was that the shot went over the ships, and by this means a loss of only one-tenth of the men took place, which would not have been the case had the ships been placed at the usual distance. It was true the Admiral had brought to bear upon the fortifications, a most formidable force, but still he thought that what had been effected was wonderful, and reflected the highest credit upon the bravery, in trepidity, and science of those engaged. He had en tered thus fully into the matter for the purpose of showing to the public that such things could not be done every day, Ile ,told their Lordships again that these were singulat' itClieces performed by great gal lantry under peculiar circumstances, and it was not to be expected that such things would happen in the fu ture. In modern times he knew but of one instance of success in firing upon stone walls. In conclusion, the Noble Duke begged to assure their Lordship that he most cordially concurred in the motion of the Noble Lord opposite. The Ead of HARD WICKE could not give a silent vote on this subject. Their Lordships must feel that after the statement of the Noble Duke it was totally unnecessary for him to enter into any statement with respect to the glorious achievements that had taken place. But he could not help expressing how perfectly he concurred in the motion of the Noble Earl opposite ; at no period in the history of this country had any thing been exhibited that showed in a stronger light the intrepidity of the seamen of England, and the effi ciency of its fleets ; and he must, on this occasion, say that any conception to the contrary was most mistaken and absurd. Lord HILL said it was impossible for him to allow the discussion to close without stating that he heartily ' concurred in the honour which was about to be con ferred on that branch of the service which had at all times, whenever an opportunity was offered, distinguished itself by skill and bravery. He begged also to state that, he thought the conduct of his Gallant Friend Sir Charles Smith, and the officers and engineers who served under him, was most praiseworthy. Earl MINTO begged to offer one remark with re spect to an observation that had fallen from the Noble Duke opposite. The Noble Duke had cautioned the Government against engaging ships of war in attacks upon fortresses. He could assure the Noble Duke that he was fully aware of the great disadvantage a ship was under in some respects when placed in such a situation ; but then, the discretion and prudence of an officer could always be trusted to, so to govern their gallant enterprises as not to undertake any attack of that description without a fair prospect of success— such a fair prospect of success as the Gallant Admiral felt he had before him in the recent engagement. Of late years there had been a great and remarkable im provement in the gunnery of the navy. During the at tack on Acre the firing was such as made it almost im possible for men to stand to their guns with any degree of steadiness. That he considered to he a new power which had been acquired by the navy in later years, and that rendered the attack of walls and fortresses a much less desperate undertaking than it might have been in the days of mere random firing. They had.had an example in which the power of battery of ships of war was successfully exhibited against much greater power brought against it, and under much greater disadvan tages ; and without all these modern improvements of gunnery which had given so much additional power to the navy in the attack of fortresses—he alluded to Algiers. O the occasion of the attack of Algiers it was undoubted that the success was decisive. lie could not refrain from saying so much, hoping that in some degree he had misunderstood the Noble Duke. He trusted that the meaning of the Noble Duke was merely to give a gene ral caution against ships of war attacking fertresses— not that they should never do so, or that it was in any way intended to complain of the proceedings under dis cussion. The Duke of WELLINGTON said he would require to have much more experience than he had before he could say that ships of war ought not to at tack any f...rtresses. He had merely stated a fact which had come under his own notice, as his opinion that in general they ought not to make such attacks. The motion was then unanimously agreed to. The Earl of SHAFTESBU RY brought up a further Report from the Committee of Precedents on the Earl'of Cardigan's c...se, stating the manner in which the House was to be fitted up. Seats would be provided for 640, and it recommended the Lord Great Chamberlain should issue only one ticket to each Peer, and that only up rs personal application. CHURCH-RATES. _ . Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition signed by the Mayor of Leicester, on behalf of a large meeting, held in that town, of the members of the Volunta y Church Society, and the friends of religious liberty, condemning, in strong language, the longer existence of Church-rates, and the confiuement of Mr.W.Baines, of that town, for that impost, which he refused to pay on conscientious motives ; and they prayed their Lord ships to adopt such measures as would afford relief, and conduce to the release of that worthy and respect able gentleman. lie understood that Leicester con tained 6,000 inhabitants, and that the Church rates le vied were 3301., of which 1301. w.ts paid or due by the Dissenters ; yet for this paltry sum the town was kept in perpetual strife. A Magistrate informed him that the enforcement of Church rates was the most disagree able duty of the Magistracy, and engendered a strong feeling of hostility against the Established Church. It was now three years since the Government had intro duced a measure to give relief, but it was withdrawn. Holtrusted his Noble Friend would be able to ans wer him in the affirmative, when he asked if her Majesty's Ministers had any intention of renewing that measure ; and if not, would they introduce any other measure calculated to effect, the same improvement ? Lord MELBOURNE—I do not feel it in my power to give any answer to the question at present. Lord BROUGHAM was afraid that that was an answer in the negative, and one which he much re gretted. JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL. Lord BROUCillAl\lsaii,hethought a misunder standing had gone abroad respecting the course cf proceedings in a very important judicature in this coun try—the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. He thought it right, in consequence of something which passed in another place, that their Lordships should have an opportunity of seeing whether there had been any neglect of duty on the part of the Learned Judges who constituted that Court. It had been said that they had not sufficiently complied with the Act" of Parliament in holdir g the sittings which ought to be held in the exercise of their jurisdiction. No personal complaint whatever had been made against these Learned Judges. It was on:y said that by the constitution of the Court their meetings were accidental, that it de pended upon the chance of the case whether meeting; were held or not, and that parties were brought down again and again, and much needless expense was in curred. Oee would naturally suppose from such state ments, that such (!el tys happened very frequently. Upon inquiry, he foun t that there were only two, or at the utmost three, instances during the last thrice years. The true way of ascertaining the truth was been move for a return of flee days of sitting. It had b d e n said that the Court had only sat eighte)en The 3, during the year 1840.—( Hear, truth was, that it had only i zt ), s which elapsed during that portion of the year e h i L e .u h r t . cen days that is to say, the month of August. But theretwrenr previous to the close of last Sess i on , e five or six months was made, and wh n of the year 1840, after ti.atvrheol The Learned return attendance, instead of they came to lo :k at the Act a)'s to make arrange upon by Pr:v Council to • to enable the Judicial ysit j ei u g d h g t e e s en w i e t re amounted to ments so as often, inoftact, the Judicial • point Privy as often as the state of business required.

If th ese when brought before their re turns, L Lordships, should show that there ought to have been a greater number of sittings in respect to the amount of business, and that there had been a grater number of causes set down than ought, in the ordinary course of business, to have stood for hearing without being so despatched, no doubt it would be the duty of the Learned Judges to attend more closely to the provisions of the Act than they had done. If, on the other bend, it should a ppear that they had sat, one year with another, - as often ae was Mr. M. PHILLIPS presented a petition froth the Manchester Dispensary, praying to be made a body corporate. RAILWAY BILLS. Mr. H. HINDE moved that the Standing Order, Number 32, relating to Railways, be read. The Order having been read, the HON. Memeaa proposed that the Standing Order respecting railway Bills, which requires that a sum equal to one-tenth part of the amount subscribed to be deposited in the Court of Exchequer, be modified by substituting one twentieth for one.tenth. The Hon. Member proceeded to say that he would not detain the House by enter ing into arguments at any length in support of his mo tion ; but he would merely mention a few facts bearing upon the subject. The House was aware that, pre vious to the year 1830, of the Bills that were passed for making railways a considerable number was confined chiefly to the purposes of local capital ; but after the opening of the great railway betwesn Liverpool and Manchester a great impetus was given to speculations of that nature, and in the following years several Bills were introduced into the House to enable capitalists to open railways. In the year 1832 four Bills were passed for that purpose, and in the year 1834 five Bills were passed for a similar purpose. In the year 1835, 24 Railway Bills had passed through that House, including the great lines from London to Birmingham, the Grand Junction, the North Union, and the London and Seuthanipten, In J 836, the number oUnPpl.cations was very large, and the attention of Parliament was particularly directed to the subject in consequence of the Standing Orders having been evaded, and, in fact, there was strong proof before the House that eva sions had been practised to enable parties to pass the Standing Orders. Notwithstanding that, twenty-nine orders or the formation of rails-a; s had passed the House. In 1837 the number of Railway Acts was fifteen. Ile admitted that many of the schemes in these three years, particularly in that of 1836, were not worthy of the support of Parliament, and were not brought under the consideration of the House in such a way as aould enable them to be proceeded with. Out of the large num ber brought forward 44 did pass the House of Commons, and although there was no particular protection, there was not a swede one of them could be called a bubble Company, and in proof of it he could state, that of the forty-four twenty-one were at the present period actually fiinished, ten were partially opened, nine were in progress, and four not commenced. Two of these four were Irish railways, and of the pe culiar circumstances connected with railways in that country it was unnecess try for him to say any thing Of the other two, the Deptford pier and railway had never been commenced, and the other, the Thames Haven railway, could not be commenced in consequence of the delay in advancing theEsstern Counties Railway. In August 1836 a Standing, Order passed the House, requiring that a longer notice should be given than heretofore, and in July of the following year the standing order was passed, requiring a deposit of 10 per cent. and both these came into operation in 1838. After the passing of tl.eie two Standing Orders there was a remarkable decrease in the number of Bills presented to that House. In 1838 only two Acts of Parliament for new railways were passed, in 1839 only one, and in 1840 no a single Act for a new line passed the House. Surety that looked like putt;ng a stop to them al together, and it would appear, that in taking steps to prevent fraudulent schemes, they had prevented the carrying on of wholesome plans. Among the 13.11 s passed - within the last three years the Edinburgh and Glasgow one had been before Parliament the previous year, and therefore the Stapling Orders did not apply to it, and another. the West Derby, hid beer, in progress of formation by another Company, and that also was exempted. The only Bill, therefore, which could be termed one for a to tally new line was one for a short line in Devonshire, near Torbay, which was not quite three miles in length, so that, in point of fact, only one Bill had passed since the Standing Order to which his motion referred. He did not mean to obj.ct to the March notices, although he had, in common with many others, objections to these notices, but he referred particularly to the order which required the deposit of 10 per cent. Ile did not 'eche% e that the Standing Orders relative to the March notices had had the effect of preventing these being given, because, in point of fact, in 1838 there had been 35 such notices given, in 1839, 29, and in 1840, 30, spewing that these notices had not been much decreased. It might be urged, and not without reason, that the state of the money market had been one of the great causes of the small number of Railway Bills brought forward, and no doubt that had operated to a certain extent ; but he would remind lion. Mem bers that although British capital had not been invested to a large amount in railways at home, yet large sums had been invested by British capitalists in railways in Germany and France, and particularly that one be tween Havre and Paris in the latter country, besides many speculations in the United States. Having disposed of the reasons why so small a number of railway bills had been brought before the House within the last three years, it only remained for him now to meet the objections of lion. Members, who thought it of little importance whether railways should continue to progress or not, and to these he would use the strong argument that Brit . sh capital was being absorbed in these undertakings in fo reign countries. Some time ago it might have been a question whether every large town should have a con nection by railway with the metropolis ; but . from what. had occurred of late years, that was a point on which there cculd be now little doubt. lie would take an instance with which he was familiar, namely, the Great North Road. It was true there was a railway from London to York, but instead of being a benefit to the large towns in a direct line it was the reverse,because in many instances it, deviated 30 miles frera that di- act line. A great number of persons were employed upon these railways, but this employment, so far from being a boon to the labouring population, would be a curse if it were to he suddenly withdrawn. Look at the operation of railways at this moment. During the last year, from February 1840 to February 1841, about 60Q miles of new railway had been opened in the kingdom. On these 600 fades fur more than a moiety of the labourers throughout the kingdom had been employed. It might be asked if he had the means of showing the number now out of employment, and he confessed that he had not. The works, especially the embankments, had been subject to so much dilapidation front the state of the weather, and from the railways having been opened with undue speed, that on many lines the same number of labourers were employed in repairing them, as had been employed during their for mation. But as spring advanced, these would he thrown out of employment, for though there were many • railways going on, with the exception of the Great Western and another, he knew of none that were going on with spirit. These were the chief causes he had to advance in fas our of a modification of the Standing Or der ; but he would point out another inconvenience, namely, the formation of railways without the sanction d of Parliament. If persons found generally s' the landowners the greater more easily make a bargain witil laidupon than by submitting to th e restrictions o t f his an sy•stem them bwould y. increase, P ,i rli Parliament, t, saving deiAp appli cation to Parliament wou,u,eancso railway s were not sub sums to the landowners , session for the regula fuunrdtherer th s e tnt s el a , n tht c hla,tad if jest to the Act of lastelated only to those formed Lion of railways, lueepxtophieienmsiatt give He would only e n t the e b the House agreed to the only these Place a li en a e c e l t Is t ) h ot ea Standing tnilii Standing O ur r d eo t r o s proposition w they would v : h eo e n n e llwio :a n'i n u s i e fr foo P t a in d g iam as en tat of the House a communication was made rd re ern l r :t k in ica : that house on o t t. oof the ir i c, ‘l s ts. h a. l e s r House, r u e s e passed,und e the aucstp:ieceest the an d l t of theNobleLord t h e n at the head of the Board of Trade, to assimilate the rouse s believedta Standingthere was no Orders othr of ff t the otnwet: b Houses, that the House of Commons proposed a deposit of 10 per cent., and the House of Lords thought this too much, and would assent only to a deposit of o per cent. lie thanked the lleuse for the attention they had paid to his statement, and submitted his motion for their decision.
