"MORNING EDITION wick was dispossessed from his seat for an act of bribery committed by his own hands. He might have cited the Ipswich case, or that of York, but he preferred to take the most recent case, and therefore he had chosen the case of Cambridge. In that case they bad many things which were wanting in the case of St. Alban's. In the Cambridge case, the evidence of the witnesses was sifted, and the accused party had an opportunity of making his defence. None of these things were to be found in the St. Alban's case ; and in the Cambridge case they had a one-sided decision ; for the Noble Lord opposite (Earl Darlington) and an Hon. Gentleman, one of the Members for Kent, voted in the majority. It was a case which had been too long overlooked, and, after what had been stated on Monday night, could be overlooked no longer. It was then stated that bribery was greatly • on the increase—that it had become a trade, and was conducted with so much dexterity that it was almost impossible to be proved. Well, here was a case which had been proved to the satisfaction of a Committee of that House, why not make an example? The Hon. Member for Monmouthshire said because of the position of Dr. Webster—because he was not an ig norant man, but belonging to one of the liberal profes sions—his example was doubly pernicious. He quite agreed with him in that. Well, here was a case in which higher game was concerned—they had higher game to fly at. Here was a gentleman who had almost a hereditary right to a knowledge of the rules and practices' of that House. Now, he hoped he would have the honour of the Right Hon. Gentleman's support on the present occasion, al though he found the principle and practice did not always go hand in hand together. He thought there could be no better proof before the House of the nature of the bribery that was carried on, than the Report of isle Committee appointed by that House to try the merits of the petition. They reported that the Hon. Henry Manners Sutton was, by his agents, guilty of bribery and treating at last Cambridge election ; and that an extensive and corrupt system of bribery and treating was carried on among many of the influential members of censtituency. These resolutions were carried by majorities of five and six to one of the mem bers of the Committee. It appeared that the agents of the Honourable Candidate were William Swan and Samuel Long, and the latter appeared to be one of those individuals, designated by the Right Hon. Gentleman tl.e Member for Montgomeryshire as employed to de : troy the link of evidence between the briber and the tribed.—(Hear, hear.) Samuel Long was proved to have been an instrument in the bribing of two electors, the one George Smith, and the other William March. The case of George Smith was to be found towards the close of the Report, and it seemed to have been conducted with much cleverness and inge nuity on the part of Mr. Samuel Long. Smith was a shoemaker, and Long went to him and ordered a pair of shoes. On that occasion he gave him some advice as to the duty of a poor man to disregard Politics, and to vote as his own interests might require ; adding that he could put a few pounds in his pocket if he voted for Mr. Manners Sutton. At a subsequent interview he tried not only advice but wine ; he gave wine to the voter, and then told him, to cut the matter short about the election, that he would give him 101. for his vote. He could give 91. then, and he would receive the re-. maining pound when he brought home the shoes. He afterwards changed his mind, under an apprehension, perhaps, of the consequences, and told the man not to come himself, but to send his wife for the money. As to bribery, he said it was all nonsense and stuff.(Laughter.) " I suppose," said the Counsel, " you washed that down with another glass of wine ?" to which the witness answered that he be lieved there was another glass. The evidence of Smith was confirmed by that of his wife, who stated that she had received the money, and took it home to her hug band. He marked the sovereigns with a file, and af terwards carried them to Mr. Francis Eden, who pro duced them before the Committee. The Committee was of opinion, from the evidence adduced, that Long, against whom the charge had been proved,wasthe agent of Mr. Man n ers Sutton. He would next come to the case of W.March. The case of March was different from the case of Smith in one respect only. March was a watchmaker, and a diffe rent mode of action was adopted. The agent went to March and purchased a brooch, but precisely the same mode of argument was used as had been used in the case of. Smith. March was told that a poor man like himself had little to do with the election, that he had best look out for his own interest; he gave him wine, and he (Mr. Ward) supposed, deducting a per tentage from the bribe on account of his cleverness in bribing, he gave March nine sovereigns instead of ten. March had a conversation with Cooper on the subject, and when Long accused him of having betrayed March, said that he had no wish to injure Long, but that he hoped that those who had employed him would be punished. It' they really wished to put an end to this system of corruption they should not merely pro secute the agents, but the persons from whom the cor ruption originated. It was sometimes difficult to trace the corruption up to its source, but in the present instance the links in the chain were more than usually complete— so complete that they traced their agents as canvassing with Mr. M. Sutton, and as in constant communication with Mr. Manners Sutton's known and recognised agent, as' ordering beer for the refreshment of Mr. Manners Sutton's voters, which were all paid for to the amount of 8001., by Mr. Fiske, Mr. Manners Sutton's known and recognised agent. The House having laid down the broad line the other night that it would pro ceed against the parties in all cases of bribery, he thought it was bound to proceed in the present case where a prima,facie case of bribery had been made out, and the House if it wished really to put down bribery ought not to proceed merely against humble individuals like Mr. Webster, who was now declining into the vale of years, and who had no longer the energy of youth about him, but against individuals who, like Mr. Manners Sutton, had had the honour of a seat in that House. The parties who lodged three or fbur thousand pounds in the hands of their bankers for the purpose of corrupt ing the electors, were the really guilty parties, and ought rather to be prosecuted than those who were detected in dealing out a fractional portion of that corruption to the electors. The House, therefore, having taken the line that it did the other night—he did not say whether it was a prudent line or not—were bound to follow up that course, and the greater and higher the personages were against whom the prosecution was instituted, the greater would be the effect of the example, and the more effectually would they put an end to those practices to which they were desirous of putting an end. They 'would more ef fectually arrest the crime of bribery than by merely proceeding against obscure individuals such as William Swan and Samuel Long. He might be told that a person who had not committed bribery in his own person, but by an agent, was not guilty of bribery. He (Mr. Ward) said that such a man was morally guilty ; but he did not mean to risk his motion on such a question as that, and he had, therefore, in addition to the first re solution relative to the prosecution of Swan and Long, introduced a second resolution, for which he would cer tainly vote himself, whether largely supported or not, and by which further proceedings were directed to be taken against the Hon. Henry Thomas Manners Sutton, believing as he (Mr. Ward) did, that the links connecting Mr. Sutton with his agents Swan and Long were complete. He should therefore put his motion with confidence to the House, and leave it with Hon. Mem bers to deal with it as th e y th oug h t fi t. Sir C. LEMON said, as chairman of the Committee on the Cambridge Election, he thought it was important that the House should understand what were the grounds upon which the Committee adopted their Report. The Committee first came to the conclusion that the . agents of Mr. Manners Sutton had been guilty of bribery. It was suggested to them afterwards that they departed in some measure from the usual form adopted i by the House, and they then alt ere d t h e i r resolution to the form of the second resolution proposed by the Honourable Gentleman.—(He ar , h ear, hear.) They thought that the question which they had to try was not whether Mr. Manners Sutton, in his own person, had been guilty of bribery, but whether his agents had been guilty of it, and they came to the conclusion upon the evi dence that they had been and were connected with hlm. But he would remind the Honourable Gentleman of the distinction drawn by Chief Justice Abbott between this case and a prosecution in the Courts of Law. With respect to Mr. Long, the evidence was as clear as it possibly could be, He net only gave the bribe, but he explained to the , party for what purpose it was given —namely, w i t h the view of influencing his vote ; and there was not the smallest doubt that it Mr. Long had been prosecuted at the time conviction would have fol lowed. The question,however, for the House to consider was whether, after this matter had been allowed to rest for a year and a half, it would be proper to commence a prosecution. If not vindictive, the proceeding would at least be retaliative. However worthless the individual might be, he thought, after a twelvemonth had elapsed, it was too late to commence a prosecution. If the motion, therefore, was persisted in, he should feel it his duty to oppose it. The Earl of DARLINGTON concurred in the re marks which had fallen from the Honourable Be rm" It was needless to say that whoever might be the individual concerned, whether of high or low station, whether friend or foe, in any act of delinquency, he would give his verdict impartially. He was not present when his Hon. Friend brought forward his motion with respect to Dr. Webster; but he certainly w as astonished when he found that a number of Gentlemen who professed thegreatest horror of bribery h a d d one all in their to shelter him.— (Hear.) He b e li eve d a more flabant case than that had never co me before the House of Commons. He would now addr ess hi mself to the subject before the House. Mr. Long (we understood the Noble Lord) had undoubtedly been guilty of bribery, but be ought to have b een prosecuted at the time. With regard to Mr. Swan there had been a good deal of discussion as to w h e th er he could be proved to have been connected with Mr. Manners Sutton. So far as his (Lord Darlington's) memory served him, there was no evidence to show that Mr. Swan had any personal communication whatever with Mr. Sutton. There was a good deal of difference of opinion upon the subject among the Members of the Commiteee, and, for his part, he had voted that Mr. Swan's agency had not been proved ; but the Committee having come to a contrary decision, he afterwards voted that the case of bribery had been made out. He would also add that, though Mr. Swan'had been subpoenaed by the Counsel for the prosecution, they never brought him and f zward_ . ,. _ anfotrhno .other reason, as appeared to him k r :r g r h a t " mi t i th tate his evidence upon a cross-examination after a state ment them. He would leave the House, upon the case of e t f s these facts, to judge for itself Mr. Manners Sutto n wa ag n a i ns lle wi w io o rn uld he ne t z h t ou c g o h m t e th t oe Hon. Gentleman o b Pr a ' s i l i t o e had not established one single charge. Let him case to add, that so hard did the Committee think the hint oot. retain r. Manners Sutton, that, though he could not °t ot' is seat, so guiltless ilk/ . They consi I any kind of bribery, .that in the resolution they had passed in the first instance. they had omitted his name altogether. It wa: only in the second resolution they had come to, after the objection of Mr. Austin to the first as illegal and unprecedented, that it had been de cided that Mr. Manners Sutton had been guilty of bribery through his agents at the election. Mr. Sutton took no part in the election whatever. He was applied to by the Conservatives to stand for the borough, and he was required to pay 3001. toward the expenses of the election. It was the only part Mr. Sutton took in the election, and he did not think a sufficient case had been made out to warrant the House in giving its assent to the motion of the Hon. Member fcr Sheffield. Mr. PROTHERQE said it had been distinctly proved before the Committee that the agents of Mr. Sutton had contributed to a fund , the avowed object of which was the corruption and bribery of the electors. He believed, however, that as far as Mr. Sutton was concerned individually that he stood as clear as any man could who represented one of those old and corrupt constituencies.--(Hear, hear.) It certainly appeared to him that much more blame ought to be attributed to the electors than the candidates, for it was impossible to ex ercise any influence over the constituencies without falling into the corrupt practices that prevailed in these boroughs; and on these grounds he objected to the prosecution of Mr. Sutton. Mr. THESIGER thought it was quite impossible that any success could follow the prosecution of the individuals who were named in the resolution of the Hon. Member. It appeared to him that the sole object for which it was brought forward was to meet a resolution emanating from his side of the House. It was not consistent with the dignity of that House to proceed upon a spirit of retaliation.—(Cheers.) Each case should stand upon its own merits, and it was no light mat ter to direct a prosecution against a gentleman, to meet the wishes of his political opponents. He thohght that the House ought to be very careful in deed before it sanctioned the carrying on of such a prosecution as that proposed by the Hon. Member for Sheffield. He would not refer to what had taken place a few nights since —(Cheers from the Ministerial benches) —because he considered that it had nothing to do with the present investigation. For his own part, if he thought that the case now under the consideration of the House called for prosecution, he would have given his vote in favour of the • Honourable Member for Sheffield. What was the state of the parties in the present case ? There were three parties before the House, Mr. M. Sutton, Mr. Swann, and Mr. Long. Nov, he was ready to admit that if either Mr. Long or Mr. Swann had been guilty of bribery with the know ledge of Mr. Manners Sutton, he would have been as much implicated as any of these parties ; but no person would venture to say that such was the case. There was, therefore, not the slightest pretence for the present prosecution, and he submitted to the House, whe ther it would not, by adopting the present motion, place itself in a most odious situation with the country. Against Mr. M. Sutton there was no case, against Mr. Swann there was no case sufficiont to secure a convic tion. He was not going to defend the conduct of Mr. Long. A clear case of personal bribery had been made out against him, and if a prosecution were instituted against him there could be no doubt but that it must be followed by conviction. But perhaps the House was not aware that at the present moment there was a prosecution against Mr. Long. After the Borough Session in 1840, he had been taken before a bench of Magistrates, on a warrant issued by Professor Henslow for bribery, and hal been held to bail, himself in 500/., and two sureties in 2501. each. That indictment had sub sequently been removed by certiorari into the Court of Queen's Bench, and it was ripe for trial in the spring of 1840. But the attorney for the prosecution, who was also the attorney for the prosecution against Mr. Manners Sutton, had met Long., and an agreement had been en tered into between them that the prosecution should be foregone provided Long would give evidence, before the Committee, against Mr. M. Sutton. He had stated to that attorney that at the Eagle Mr. Mitchell had, in the presence of Mr. M. Sutton, handed over to him, Long, forty sovereigns for the purpose of bribing" the electors, but when he appeared before the Com mittee on his oath he denied the whole statement. He (Mr. Thesiger) would not defend the integrity of Long • but however worthless he might b e , it was muc h more likely that when speaking under the obligation of an oath he would speak the truth, than when speaking to the agents of the opposing candidates. He appealed to the Attorney-General whether he had ever known of a person being criminally indicted for acts of which he had no personal knowledge or cognizance. The parties who actually bribed were liable to action and to penalty, but he trusted they would not introduce a principle un recognised in law, and which could not be attended with any success.—(Hear, hear.) The ATTORNEY-GENERAL had not oh the for mer occasion, and he should not on the present, offer. any opinion whatever upon the matter ; because sitting in that House as the public officer of the Government, it might devolve upon him afterwards to prosecute these parties.—(Hear, hear.) He did not think it would be decent for him, under such circumstances, to say anything upon the merits of the case ; and he did not think his Hon. and Learned Friend had exercised a sound discre tion in making an appeal to him.—(Hear, hear.) Sir E. SUGDEN said that there was no ground whatever for instituting a prosecution against Mr. Man ners Sutton, because his name had been very reluctantly introduced into the resolution by the Committee, on the suggestion of Mr. Austin, who said that otherwise the resolutions would be inoperative. He denied that there was any ground for imputing personally to Mr. Sutton any share in the bribery that had taken place. He should certainly oppose the motion. Mr. WARD said, after the expression of the opinion of the house that had been given, he did not mean to divide it upon the second resolution with regard to Mr. Manners button, but he thought he was justified in pressing the resolution with regard to his agents (Messrs. Swann and Long) to a division, because they had been proved to have been guilty of the grossest bribery and corruption. Lord J. RUSSELL said it appeared to him that the Hon. Member had acted judiciously in withdrawing the second resolution ; and with rospect to the two parties to whom the first resolution referred, Swann had not taken any active part in the matter, and it would require addi tional evidence to bring the charge home to him ; but it was clear that a case of gross bribery had been made out with regard to Long ; and that the House might, in his case, very properly interfere. He would recommend to the Hon. Member for Sheffield, therefore, to separate these two parties, and bring forward a resolution with respect to Long only.—(Hear.) Mr. W. WYNN said he should be very sorry to see a prosecution for bribery entertained where the bribery was by agents only, without proof of knowledge, be; it would interfere with the Committee, and prevent them doing that with respect to the sitting Member, which they could legally do, though there were no grounds for prosecution. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he thought the object of the prosecution would be fully gained, by passing the resolution now moved, because it wou.d then be left to the discretion of the Attorney-General, which ho hoped would be faithfully exercised, as to the mode in which the prosecutions should be instituted.—(Hear.) Mr. HOBHOUSE hoped his Hon Friend would have no objection to put his motion in the technical form that would be agreeable to the House, and for his own part he should give it his support. Mr. WARD said he should not object to the propo sal of the Noble Lord, to place two resolutions in the hands of the Speaker, making the prosecution apply in the first instance to Long, alid afterwads to Swann. With reference to what had fallettlfrom the Honourable Member for Woodstock respecting its being derogatory to the dignity of the House to institute retaliatory pro secutions, he begged to observe that there was a spirit of consistency as well as of retaliation, and it was his opi nion the House would best consult its dignity by showing its impartiality.—(Cheers.) He would, therefore, re quest leave to put the resolution in a twofold harm, the first with reference to Samuel Long, and the second with reference to William Swann.—(Hear, hear.) Strangers were then ordered to withdraw ; we un derstood that in our absence the motion, as regarded Mr. Long, was agreed to, and o n th e reso l ut i on, as re garded Mr. Swan, the Housedivided, when the numbers were— For the motion 7B Against the motion 46 Majority —32 The resolution for the prosecution of both parties was therefore carried. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, the Report upon the Bribery at Elections Bill was agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners Bill was ordered to be committed to-morrow. The Church-rates Abolition Bill was withdrawn. The Tr lee Navigation and Harbour Bill was read a third time, and passed. • The further consideration of the Debts of Parishes Bill was adjourned till to-morrow. HERTFORD REGISTRY. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE obtained leave to bring in a Bill more effectually to enforce the printing, and the speedy delivery, at a reasonable price, of copies of the registry of electors in England and Wales ; and to make provision for the printing of the registry of the present year of the electors of the county of Hertford. The remainder of the business was then disposed of, and the House adjourned at a Quarter after Eight o'Clock, until to-morrow. BENEFIT FOR ASTLEY'S Anderson, the most successful performer in his line of the pre sent day, or perhaps any other, has generously come forward to relieve brother performers in digress. It is well known tt:at great numbers of persons have been thrown out of em ployment by the destruction of Astley's Amphitheatre, and that un'e!s some assistance be granted, their families will Le reduced to great. distress. Drury-lane is to be thrown open for a benefit to Ducrow, and Mr. Anderson, judging properly that many others may be equally deserving of relief, has hand , somely offered to perform at the Adelphi theatre on Monday next for the benefit of the company. We have no doubt that the public, who have been so often delighted by their perf - mances, will cordially support Mr. Anderson in this work of charity. On Wednesday morning the following feightful gig accidents occurred in the New-road, St. Marylebone- A horse, in harness, having part of the body of a gig and tl e shafts attached, came galloping along the New-road, towards Marylebone, at a furious rate, from the direction of Battle bridge. At the corner of Cleveland-street, New-road, he turned suddenly down that street, at the moment a Mrs. Ann Bennett (the wife of a police eonstah'e), accompanied by her father, turned into the street from Cirencester-place, and the shaft, striking her on the side of the head, fractured her skull in so shocking a manner that no hopes Are entertained of her recovery. Her father has also received serious injuries. The horse afterwards turned agaiss into the New-road, and, in his progress, three other persons received dreadful injuries, and were removed to St. Marylebone Infirmary. The animal was secured near the Yorkshire Stingo. It was unknown who at belonged to, or where it came from. BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE. On Thursday evening a meeting of Mr. Young's friends was held at the large Loin, 27, Marylebone-lane, which was quite crowded. • Wst. Cwt., Esq., Surgeon, in the Cha . r. The Caws Rata N detailed the objects of the meeting at some length, and concluded by calling upon Mr. Young to address the meeting. Mr. YOUNG then repeated his political professions, which coincided exactly with his former statements. Several questions were then put to Mr. Young, in the course of answering which he stated that he was in favour of a pro perty tax—he would allow a man to leave his property (as by will) to whomsoever he liked. He did not approve of the law of primogeniture—he would not accept place from the present Government if he were returned to Parliament. Mr. Young then stated that, as he believed, there was s. person named Langham present in the room, who had accused him (Mr. Young), of certain political offences; be now challenged that in dividual to come forward, state his accusations, and hear his reply. In order to show the false and unmanly reports issued by the Tories and the Warren-street Association, the questions of Mr. Langham are here inserted, together with 31r. Young's Mr. LANGIIAM—Did you not send persons to Sir Benjamin Hall's Committee last year, and offer to retire from the contest if they would give you 4001. ? Mr. YOUNG--No, Sir. I give your insinuation a flat de -1 nial. I sent no persons to Sir Benjamin Hall or his Committee. Mr. LANGHAM threatened to bring forward those persons whom Mr. Young had sent, if he persevered in going to the poll —( Cries of " Put him out," &c.) Mr. YOUNG—I do persevere, and challenge the parties.— (Cheers.) Mr. LANCHAM—Did you not belong to the Gothic Hall, a Tory Club ? Mr. You NO—I did belong to it. Of that club, at that time, Sir John Byng was Chairman; Mr. Hovendon, in conjunction with myself, was a member, and Mr. Henry Jackson was the Secretary. Were those the names to constitute a Tory club? —(" No, no, bravo, Young.") Mr. Young was then asked. if he had not stood for the Borough of Marylebone at least four times before, and always been rejected. Mr. Young re plied that he had stood for that borough on two previous oc casions. On the first occasion, he (Mr. Young) was but little known among the electors. The polling then lasted two days; at the close of the first day, he (Mr. Y.) saw he had no chance; he only polled a very few votes, and in consequence he retired. On the second occasion he polled nearly 800 votes in two hours, at which time he (Mr. Young) was considerably a head of Sir B. Hall, and there he should no doubt have re mained, had not a trick been resorted to : bills had been printed the night before, stating that he (Mr. Young) had withdrawn from the contest. Those bills were posted all over the borough, stuck on cabs, omnibuses, and coaches, and it was impossible to prevent them making an impression upon the electors.—( Shame.) Messrs. Duffil, Frampton, and other gentlemen then ad dressed the me e ti ng . They wished to know if Commodore Napier had never been rejected. Was he not so at Ports mouth and at Greenwich ?—( Loud cheers.) The customary resolution was proposed by Mr. Duel, seconded, and carried unanimously, only two hands being held up in opposition. Mr. Young, as at the only other similar meeting at which he had been present, was enthusiastically received. Three time three for Mr. Young, three cheers for the Chairman, who briefly returned thanks, and the meeting separated. --- NEW Sou'rit \VALES.—The following extracts from a Sydney journal show the increasing prosperity of the co lony.

REPRESENTATION OF MARYLE- BONE. On Thursday a great meeting ot the Reformers of this borough, resident 'in the district of South Pancras, was held at Lawson's Assembly-Rooms, Gower-street, for the purpose of meeting Sir Charles Napier, and of receiving from the gallant Commodore an exposition of his political opinions, which had already given almost universal satisfaction at fourteen other meetings of this most important and respectable metropolitan constituency. Mr. DYKE having been called to the chair unanimously, and amidst loud applause, said, that as a dissolution of Pasha ment was almost hourly expected, it was the duty of the electors throughout the kingdom to prepare themselves for a contest, never equalled since that of 1831—(Cheers)—and he hoped that every Reformer would buckle on his armour, and tight for the return of representatives who were friendly to an extension of the suffrage, Vote by Ballot, and short Parliaments.— (Cheers.) It was his pleasing duty to indroduce to that nu merous meeting of his brother electors that distinguished sailorand sound politician, Sir C. Napier—(Great applause)—whom he had no doubt they would support as a worthy colleague of their tried representative, Sir B. Hall, whose votes and con duct in Parliament had been such as not even the most ex treme Radical could find fault with.—(Cheers ) Sir C. Napier. then appeared en the platform, and was greeted, as usual, with enthusiastic arid long-continued cheering. He said he always, observed that when he met the electors in a large room, in which a small minority could not pack them selves so as to create obstructions, the meeting proceeded in a quiet and orderly manner, and he was happy to see that in that very numerous assembly there was the same satisfactory dis position.—(Cheers and laughter.) They were all aware of the proposals which had been made by his Committee to come to an arrangement with their opponents, with whom they had the same political opinions —( Hear, hear.) He believed an understanding had been come to that, after he should have at tended the last district meeting (which would be on Friday) there should be held a general meeting of the electers at the Colosseum, where it should be decided which was the fittestrepresentative of the borough, Mr. Young or himself. It was of the utmost import ance that the question should be settled, for otherwise two Tories would certainly be returned.—( Hear, hear.) After all the pains and trouble he had already taken, and the sacrifices he had made, still if he found that a majority of the electors was in favour of Mr. Young, he would at once retire in favour of that gentleman.—(Cheers and cries of "No chance, no chance.") But if the majority were in his favour, he hoped that his opponent would resign, without any further division of the borough.—(Applause.) Before he stated, as he had done elsewhere, his own opinions on the great questions in which the electors felt an immediate interest, he would state what he con sidered to be the difference between the Whigs and the Tories, between whom' the country must shortly decide as to which should have the Government in their hands. He (lid not say that the Whigs had done enough since they came into office, but neither was he able to say that they could have done more.—( Hear, hear, hear.) First was the Reform Bill, which the Tories, in office and out of office, had opposed tooth and nail.—( Cheers and laughter.) Next was the Corporations Reform Bill, which they strove to make a better measure than it is, but were frustrated to some extent by the Tories. Then they effected a measure for the Commutation of Tithes, which had done a great deal of good, and given much satis faction in many parts of the country.—( Hear, hear.) They alas succeeded, in spite of the opposidon ot the Tories, in effecting the abolition of slavery, which was, perhaps, the greatest achievement performed by any Government in the world.--( Vehement cheering.) The country contributed twenty millions to the accomplishment of that object, and as that sum went into the pockets of the West India proprietors, it was not too much to expect that they should now allow the people of these countries to have a little cheap sugar with their tea.—(Much laughter.) On the question of Church -rates, although the Whigs had not been able to carry an effective measure, they had yet done so much, that even a Government of Sir R. Peel's would be compelled to put an end to that impost, which he (Sir C. N.) considered both unjust and irreligious, because he thought that no man ought to he required to con tribute to the expenses of a religion in which he did not be lieve.— (Repeated cheers.) By their Act for the Registration of Births, Marriages, and Death., the Whig Government had done justice to the Dissenters, who received it, he believed, with satisfaction and thanks.—( Hear, hear.) Next came the question between an increase of taxation and cheap food.— ( Cheers.) The Tories had moved Heaven and earth to bring the Ministers almost to the block for endeavouring to cheapen food, instead of increasing taxation: —( Cheers and laughter.) Late events had caused a great increase of expenditure. We had been almost at war with France, and a cause of war had seemed liVelv to arise with America.—( Hear.) Although our Government had thought it wise not to demand the liberation of M'Leod, wham the Americans had thrown into prison for obeying the orders of his Government, he ( Sir C. Napier) remembered the time when a similar case would have rou'ed the whole British nation to arms.—( Great cheering.) The Gallant Commodore then proceeded to state h's own opinions, as we have alreaily reported them, in favour of the Bal lot, for the necessity of which this borough offered a striking illustration, inasmuch as out of 35,000 ten pound householders, (illy 11,000 were registered, and of these no more than 8,000 had ever voted at an election.--( Hear, hear.) It was well-known that tradesmen were unwilling to register lest they should be required to vote against their consciences, and of those who were registered a large number could not go to the poll without a certainty of being ruined in their busi ness.—(A universal shout of " That's true, Commodore--that's the secret.") On the subject of the Poor-laws he bad already stated that he was earnestly opposed to many parts of the new Bill, though he would not support a return to the old system, which contained many abuses. He would vote for sufficient out-door relief—(Cheers)—and for those who went into work houses he would not allow those places to be made prisons, but insist on their being to the age d an d wern - ou t p l aces of refuge and comfort, like those magnificent establishments of Green wich and Chelsea —(Cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers.) He had always, when a guardian of the poor, opposed and successfully opposed the Commissioners at Somerset House, for whose office he saw no necessity, and no use. The Gallant Commodore then sat down amidst repeated and most enthusi as'ic applause. Dr. TAYLOR moved a resolution pledging the electors pre sent to support Sir C. Napier and Sir B. Hall at the next election. in an eloquent speech, which was vehemently cheered throughout, he eulogized the character of the Gallant Commo dore, and claimed the support of every father of a family and every benevolent man for the measures proposed by the Go vernment for giving cheap bread to the people. To show the absurdity of the landlords' assertion that the abolition of the Corn-laws would place this country in a state of dependence oa foreign nations for a supply of food, he referred to official re turns, which showed that in the year 1813, following a defi cient year in corn, the principal supply to make up for the scarcity at home was derived from France, although we were at that time in the height of war with that country. —( Cries of " Hear, hear.") It was also said that cheap food would cause low wages. But that he disproved by the fact that in the year 1t135, whets food was cheaper than in any other year since the peace, wages were highest.—(Cheers. ) Dr. Wiesoss, in seconding the resolution, said, that, as an old sailor of forty years' standing, he wished to say something of what he knew of Commodore Napier. In 1806 his Gallant Friend first became known to him afloat, and very soon showed to all in the service that if England had lost her Nelson the year before, there was at least one man capable of supply ing the loss.—( Hear, hear, and tremendous cheering.) He could tell the meeting an anecdote, which would show them what they might expect from the determination of their new representative, as no doubt Sir Charles would be—( Cheers). When he accepted the command of the Lisbon fleet, which he took for the purpose of putting down the tyrant of Portugal, he said to a friend, who did not think much of his chances of success, " In six weeks I shall be in Lisbon or in Heaven"— for (added the Doctor) a sailor never goes to the other place. —( Great cheering and laughter.) The resolution was then put and carried by an immense majority, only fifteen hands being held up against it, in a meeting of nearly 600 persons. Thanks having been voted to the Chairman, the meeting separated, with three times three deafening cheers for the Commodore. FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. WAR-OFFICE, JUNE 11, 1841.

It appears this man some time ago r ° , o loUr c : himself to write a work against all negroes an" tert°,„' people, expressing himself in the most outrag e° a t IV which the following extract from his writings, P et the newspapers, will give a sample of : wo ol' " Que tes negres n'etaient point de nature e.e t ft" glens etaient dans la cathegorie de la race brats des roce, qu'ils etaient des valets moins que des Y ele u blitl us esciaves, moins que des esciaves ; et que d'Haiti etaient le repaire des ourang outang , di I think this is sufficient to offendany people s and I am surprised that, after having expressed 000 lished such sentiments, he has had the temeri t ):4 th e , foot on the land lie has marked out.

They got him back on board in sw e h d„ - rtr,,, the next morning the French Consul went up t°4 l je ° o f sident to demand punishment of all those engag` - e itt uproar. This led to the immediate imprison 700 0 about forty of the young men belonging to the fir st 00 11 here, who, however, have all been set free ag e i liggi s c ‘ believe the French Consul considers his offici o ' freli insulted, which may, in the present humour of th e c oe e nation, lead to more serious results.
