The Noble Lord then traced the financial 4111ents of the colony, and the proceedings of Colonel ( ake„ - ; 41 with regard to them, which he stated were always , v otela, )l. ° a deep and imperious sense of their necessity. ). He ast en - tit go into the point, so much argued before the Committee t iini" e 't r t whether he was justified in drawing on the treasury kaleo'anner he. had done. Captain Grey hod suttee led the g r eduction in the exrnses of the civil establishment ° L c ishZ i ntly from 94,000/. to 34,600/.

The result was, that out of a P°alit etßn of 15,000 persons 2,000 were maintained at the k t ese. Captain Grey, however, had received the seply I t lotinsitive instructions that no workman who refused to re emPloyment even at wages below those given ordi colonists should receive relief. The course her Ala 'letttl'r; ev ernmen ' t meant to pursue was, that those who went gag e colony, harino• gone on the faith of Government . , it I via% n ow justice to support them now.

The Hon.

It was a Bill that •r'"a to „L' erueity being practised upon those who were citie. ,°•eet themselves.

Mr. W. A TTWOOD had always supported the measures introduced by the Noble Lord for ;he pr.itection of the labour ing classes, but he thought the present Bill elms hurried rather hastily through the House: He doubted whether the arrange ment, which limited the time of the labour of the boys to three days per week would b' attended with beneficial effect to the employers, or would admit of the boys themselves earning suffi cient for tlieir maintenance. He thought that many improve ments might be made in the Bill of the Noble Lotei, and yet the object which he had in view completely carried out. Mr. STANSFIELD deprecated the course pursued by the Commissioners in arriving at the farts set forth in their Reports. He thought that a general law should not be passed, because abuses prevailed in some places. What would be the case if they proceeded :in the same way with regard to the Poor-laws? He considered the House was proceeding too hastily in legislating on the subject. The boys were to be employed three days in the week by the present Bill ; but what were they to do the other days when they were not to be employed? He thought they were proceeding to do good under a false im pression, and, while they were anxious to get rid of one evil, were about to fall into another. The lion. Gentleman then referred to the Report of one of the Commissioners, which con tained statements of a careless, if not of a very questionable nature. He stated that one of the masters threw a hundred weight at one of the boys, which made bis eyes black and blue. Now he (Mr. Stansfield) was surprised it did not not crush him alt'gether. But the fact was, that a sort of stick, called a " cut" was used in the mines; and it was this which was thrown and not a "hundred weight," as was stated by the Comrels sioners.—( Laughter.) He did not mean to justify the act, but it showed the manner in which the Report was drawn up. Now, he did not think it was fair to legislate generally upon such statements. The colliers ought to know, at least, the charges which were to ba brought against them. He, at least, was disinterested in the view he took upon the matter, because he did not possess a single coal-mine, and he could not but deprecate the haste in which the Bill was passed. Mr. BROTHERTON rose for the purpose of alluding to what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Whitehaven. It was known that boys of five, and six, and seven years of age, were employed in the mines, and did not see the light more than once in the week, Now, was it right that such a state of things should continue? He did not think it ought, and he would, therefore, support the proposition of the Noble Lord. He felt no hesitation in supporting the third reading of the Bill, considering that the Noble Lord was entitled to the thanks of the country for bringing it forward.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. HAWKES thought that the coalowners in Stafford shire had great cause of complains in not being made ac quainted with the provisions of the Bill. He should, therefore, oppose its third reading. After a few observations from Mr. FIELDEN, Lord ASHLEY replied. Lord PALMERS4 ON hoped that the Bill, would pass without any alteration, which he was sure it would do if it had the support of her Majesty's Government elsewhere. That support had been promised in that House, and he was sure her Majesty's Government would support it in the House of Lords. The Bill was then read a third time and passed, amid loud cheers. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at Ten o'Clock. ELECTION COMMITTEE. SOUTHAMPTON. The Committee met at the usual hour, the Hon. J. S. W,rrley in the Chair. Mr. Marty n, who was partly examined yesterday, was re called—Mr. Mabson and Mr. Ball were on the Finance Com mittee ; does not know that Mr. J. Hunt was one, or Mr. Mackay ; paid no money at the election except by checks . upon Maddison's Bank; drew a check on the 4th or sth of July for 300/. ; remained for two or three days after the election in Southampton ; drew a check for 3001. on the 9th ; was not applied to after the election ; did not pay any money after; the election of 1837 was conducted inthe , sarne way as the election of 1841. 'to the Comirrru—Cannot say why the check for the first 3001. was in Lord Bruce's name; probably it was a mistake of the banker's clerk; hal enough of his own to attend to without attending to Lord Bruce's account. John Marsh was then called. and examined.—Resides at Newport; a person whom he did not know came to him on Saturday, and brought him to Southampton, and from thence to London; he dropped him near Regent's park; he did not say what his object was; witness under stood that he came to him in case he (witness) had not money 0 his ewn to bring him ; he slept at the Castle, Mr. Luce's house ; he lived with Mr. Carter; of South ampton he left Mr. Carter about four weeks ago ; re collects the last election for Southampton ; he slept at 43, High-street; knows a person named Redwards; Red wards lived in the same house ; a gentleman called and asked for Redwards ; does not recollect if Redwards came down ; would not know the person who called ; does not know if it was Mr. Mackay ; had nononveraa don with any person relative to the election since he came to London ; was speaking to a large person with a mackintosh coat yesterday ; it was not with reference to the election ; does ma what it was about. Henry Bray, a clerk io Mr. dderley's bank, was thf'n called awl eK van ned—Messrs. Hutchins and Mangles had an account with the bank ; the account was kept in the name of Mr. and Admiral Gil-Nil, the Vice-Chair- Man, and Chairman of the Whig Committee ; (the wit ness handed in a copy of the account.) They had in structions to honour the orders of Chaplin, Tucker, and Lankaster ; Messrs. Hutchins and Mangles did not keep any other account with the bank. The total amount was 2,2501. There being no other witnesses in attendance, the Committee sugze.ted that Mr. Mackay might be exa mined. Mr. Mackay was trot in attendance when called for, and a messenger was sent to seek him. In the meantime Mr, BAKER said that, perhaps, the Committee would express an opinion upon the absence of Mr. Luce, which would induce the other p9rty to assist him in discovering where he was. Mr. HEARN assured the Committee thit he did not know where Mr. Luce was, and he would be most anxious to have hun produced, as his absence might be more likely to impress the Committee unfavourably than any evidence which he could give. . _ The CHAIRMAN said that certainly an unfavourable impression was created in the minds of the Committee by the absence of Mr. Luce, but as it was stated that he was in France they had no jurisdiction. On the motion of Sir J. HAMMER the room was cleared, Mr. Baker and Mr. Hearn were called in, and after some time the parties were admitted, when Mr.Abrahams was called and examined by Mr. HEARN —Resides in Southampton, where he carries on the busi ness of a jeweller. Was one of the returning-officers at the last election ; is Sheriff at present. Knows Mr. J. Wren. Mr. Wren never told bim a person of the name of Whitmarsh would not vote for less than 201. Mr. Wren told him of a conversation between him and Whitmarsh ; he said that Whitmarsh was in the Whig Committee-room, and that he would not vote unless he got money. Witness expressed his surprise, and said that he had nothing to do with the election. He never authorised Mr. Wren to pay a single farthing to Whit marsh, Callan, Twyford, or any other person. He never signed a book, authorising Wren to pay any money, or to promise him any. He declared solemnly that he never signed the "A. Abrahams" in the memoran dum-book. The signature is a base fabrication ; it is not even like his. Knows Mr. Thomas Twyford ; he is a tenant of witness's. Witness never paid him a farthing. Was not a member of Lord Bruce's and Mr. Martyn's Committee. Never went to the Dolphin from • the time he got the writ, except once, when he went to see Mr. Moodie ; was there two or three times previous. Was never in a committee room up stairs in the Dolphin. Had a conversation with Wren after the eke s tion ; it was opposite his (witness's) door ; it might be a month or two after the election. On that occasion Mr. Wren told him that some agent of Messrs. Hutchins and Mangles had been with hint in the drawing room of Mr. Woulfe, and that he was offered 3001. ;or giving ! what information he knew respecting the Consersatie;? party at Sonthatapton. Does not know whether he said ; it was Mr. Baker. Witness made no observations upon it. Captain Owen was present at that conversation. Was summoned to attend the Election Committee ; was not examined. He is assignee of Messrs. Sheppard and Drew, the late landlords of the " Star." He brought an action against Messrs. Mangles and Hutchins for 4531. as assignee. Mr. Sharpe, about four days previous to the action, came to him and offered him 1501. Wit ness said that if he were offered 300/. he would be then I happy to meet Mr. Sharpe ; he then went away, and I came again to witness, and offered 2001., which he (wit- I ness) refused. Mr. Sharpe then shook his fist at him, and said " You will proceed at your peril." The action was tried at Guildhall, and the full amount was reco vered. That was about the • beginning of May. NeVer heard of any imputation against him with respect to Twyford till after the action.: Mr. Mad dison 'is his banker ; he draws in the course of the year upon Mr. Maddison, to the amount of be tween 10,0001. and 20,000/. The check of the 19th of April is in his handwriting, except the name ‘• John Wren." All the checks certain his genuine signature ; the bill of exchange handed to him is the one he dis counted for Wren. He charges discount according to the name on the bill. He signs almost all the checks for the Corporation ; it is therefore easy for persons to have documents with his name. He discounted two or three bills for Wren. The two checks handed to him are in his handwriting. He never saw the memorandum till this moment. 11e never heard of it 6;1 after the action against Hutchins and Mangles. Cross-examined by Mr. BAKER—Never heard any thing to Mr. Wren's prejudice prior to this time. The conversation he had with him in presence of Captain O.ven surprised him very much. Gave money to Mr. Wren besides the checks he discounted. Mr. Wren wrote to him and stated that he was objector, and was out of pocket. Witness interfered for him, and he paid him 101. ; that was before the election, s:nne weeks. He paid the money out of his own pocket. He , had a memorandum of it. It was nut to secure Mr. Wren's services ; he desired Mr. Wren to go to the Committee. Mr. James Sharpe is a respectable .man, living in Southampton. Attributes the threats he held out to matters connected with this election ; it may be in reference to the result of the action. Wren spoke to him about discounting bills for Callan ; it was two or three weeks before the election. Declined having any thing to do with the billsc Knew Callan well ; would not discount a bill for him to a large amount. Does not recollect what day of the month he received the writ ; believes it was on the 26th of June. Did not take an active part in the election. Has no recollection of can vassing a vote before or after the election. Did not can vass Twyford in any way ; he is a tenant of his (wit ness's). Was at the Dolphin three or four times. Went once to see Captain Ward, and another time to Mr. Moodie. He went to know how they were getting or. Attended and presided at a meeting of the Ward of St. Michael's. He should hope the object of the mat' rg was to keep their party together. Lord Bruce and Mr. Ivlartyn were there. Does not know who paid for the dinner ; he did not pay a farthing. believing it was paid out of the funds of the Association. K.:ows a person named Philips. Never asked him tOr his vote. He was in his house during that election. While he was there, a person named Buchan came in and wished to see Philips. He said that as soon as he wa3 done with he should t::)c - 1 come cm; to .iqt• Buchan. Philips brought in him by his boy. for the pur pose of settling his milk account. :There is a door be tween the shop and the parlour. It is always open. It was open when Philip; was with him. His shop is opp')site the Whig Cornmittee-room. A Whig lives next door to him. He is a very respectable 'man not• withstanding.—(Laughter.) linows a person named Andrews. Andrews told him that he, had been up to London respectimg the-election, - but having been asked to state what was not the tact, he was sent -back again. To Lord BADRINGTON—IIad never taken any very active part in eketions. He did what he could to serve his cause. It was usual to employ colourmen and chair men in Southampton ; there might be about fifty voters so employed. To Mr. SlTlEL—Ree.llects sending a letter to Mr. Fleming or Mr. Mackinnon, which was read in the House of Commons:, when Mr. Duncombe referred to the book there. Did cot deny the charge then, because he believes the letter was written before. It being announced that the,Speaker was at prayers, .he Committee adjourned till to-morrow. MI LITA RI( INTELLIGENCE.

TH.} BRAZILIAN CHAMBERS. We subjoin a translation of the Report presented V the Brazilian Cabinet to his Imperial Majesty, on which was indorsed the Royal decree of dissolution alluded to under : p t I h es e s a i d i, g o ott S considerable aturda It is an interest for' Britishdocu ment, merchants connected with the Brazils . " DISSOLUTION OF THE BRAZILIAN CHAMBERS. "Sir,—The Ministers of your Imperial Majesty would incur a grave responsibility towards the country, betray their own consciences, and be unworthy of the confidence with which your Imperial Majesty has honoured them, if they were not w ith the most profound respect to pray your Majesty for a mea sure which circumstances imperatively clam for the maintenance of monarchical, constitutional, and representative government, the only one which can insure the salvation of the State against the intrigues and obstacles of factions. It is, without any doubt, butter to prevent in time the incalculable fatal consequences that follow in the rear of the march of factions, than to euter'into a strife with them aft e r having produced already irreparable elamage. " The present Chamber of Deputies, Sir, does not possess that moral force which is indilienstble to accredit its acts and to strengthen the representative system amongst us. It can not represent. the opinion of the country. because an expression of the national will and public necessities can only be the pro duce of freely given votes. " The existence of this Chamber is net compatible with the idea of a regular Government, because in it predominate men, echo, putting aside all constitutional means, would not refrain a moment from subverting and invading all the ideas of social organization ; and from usurping and superseding all the other powers of the State. " The recollection of the intrigues and acts of violence which in the election of the present Chamber of Deputies were committed almost on every point of the empire, are strongly impressed on the memory of the Brazilians. An electoral triumph over all the laws of public decency was the object for which influences which in spite of the national will, at that time predominated, united all their strength, and success crowned those deplorable efforts to such an extent, that they command a decided majority. All Brazil, Sir, will rise to . testify that in 1840 no regular and lawful elections took place. Public authorities, whose ad hesion was suspected or doubtful, were unlawfully and even en masse Ett'perided; orders drawn up in conformity to the de sired ends were confided to the agents that had to preside at the electoral proceedings, in order to remove obstacles, and to prevent the action and success of the national will. Public functionaries were forced to a cruel option between a sacrifice of their conscience or of the bread of their children ; persons emp!oyed in public works and buildings, soldiers, sailors of the imperial marine were constrained to march in a body to the poll, and there to register votes imposed on them beforehand ; subaltern agents of little morality, empowered to act according to their own discretion, enrolled and armed individuals whose electoral rights were more than questionable, and many of whom did not even belong to the parishes in which they voted. Those regiments invaded the churches, and tore from the table violently the citizens craistituting the board for the direction of the elections, and substituted others for them by force. They expelled them from the churches under insults and me naces—;waceable citizens that had come there for the exer cise of one of the must precious rights of a freeman, that of electing his representatives, and when those regiments were not sufficient—when the citizen was not cowed at a nod of those agents, supported by an armed force. the churches were attacked,' profaned by bayonets, and Brazilian blood was spil led. When a.I those mans failed they devised another expe dient. that or disturbing, by all modes possible the electoral operations. When a majority of citizens had retired without giving in their lists, the urns were, notwithstanding, found filled with a number of those lists, exceeding that of the active citizens of the parish. From the hands of those who had pro claimed them the electoral boards received the lists by scores and in bundles, without caring whether signed or not , or whe ther bearing the names of active citizens or mere children, or slaves, or fictitious names ; and as if that was not enough, the verification of votes by these boards oas made a subject of scorn and laughter, and thus the right of voting turned into a bitter and criminal derision. They counted the votes as it suited them—they reed the names of voters as they chose—they verified the lists by scores. This capital was with indignation a witness of the saturnalia nicknamed the elections of a free people. " To these encroachments others were added; the urns were surreptitiously taken away, and to the true lists, at least to those publicly . received, they substituted others that were false, and those interested in these proceedings did not shrink back from such a scandalous and undisguised falsification of public acts, when the results to be expedted were not according to their wishes. " In some paces the number of electors was augmented in an incredible and frightful manner ; in some colleges, not mustering a hundred electors, more than a thousand votes were handed in. " There is scarcely any part of the empire, Sir, where these crimes against the freedom of voting was not committed in the elections of the present Chamber of Deputies. " A Legislative Chamber, tainted by so many crimes, dis credited in the general opinion of the Brazilians, who witnessed them, can never acquire the esteem and the veneration neces sary to produce a moral force, indispensable for such a political body, and for the maintenance of a Representative Govern ment. Its acts will never experience that easy and voluntary obedience, produced by a conviction on the part of the governed, who expressed their intentions by the means of a free election. Such a Chamber, whatever may be its numerical forces, can under no circumstances command public respect. " Whatever passes in a Legislative Chamber, being necessarily brou.,ht to publicity, provokes to discussion the intelligence, the passion, the interests of all the members of the associa tions, and is, from day to day;judged, condemned, or approved. " With what moral force must it be invested, what confidence must it command, if its authority is not to be endangered by its daily verdicts? " dgainst the Chamber of Deputies just assembled from every part of the empire voices are raised reproaching them with their origin, that was a violation of the law ; on the very day of election, on every point of the empire, protests were en tered against that Chamber, branded by public opinion, and its immediate dissolution was loudly demanded, and every fact that happened afterwards only served to confirm the justice of that sentence. To accept or undergo such a Chamber would be assisting in falsifying the representative system, and plunging the nation into the abyss of anarchy or despotism. The Ministers of your Imperial Majesty avow that the prin ciples of order have also their representatives in the present Chamber of Deputies. and it gives them the greatest pleasure to make this confession, as-,this circumstance affords a proof of the strength of the national opinion, which, in spite of all inti midation succeeded in placing in the same Chamber men dis tinguished by their acquirements, talents, and virtues. But what can avail their powers, abilities. and patriotism in the face of those ob . stacies that await them. The salvation of the state, such as established by the constitution and the Reform Act, demands, therefore, that the present Chamber of Deputies give way to another, to which freedom of voting shall have imprinted the character of a true representative of national opinion, and impart that moral force required to strengthen amongst us the monarchical, constitutional, and representative system. ---- " A nd, for this reason, the Mioisters of your Imperial Ma jesty did not hesitate a moment to pray your Imperial Ma jesty to give his sanction to the measures implied in the decree which they have the honour to deposit in the hands of your Imperial Majesty, that will decide according to your august pleasure.

In the Customs there is a falling off in the quarter's revenue of nearly 200,0001., which is to be attributed chiefly, if not altogether, to the delay in passing the tariff through the House of Commons. There is also a decrease on the malt duty, owing, no doubt, to the bad harvest of last year, but the increase on other articles of excise and miscellaneous duties fully compensate for the decrease in the Customs and malt ;_ and will show an i ncrease on the quarter, as above state d, o f upwards ut 200,000/. The Post Office revenue has increased 20,0001. in t h e quarter. Stampsremain about the same .

The arguments in this Scotch appeal were commenced to day, COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, July 5. (Sittings in London, before the Loan CIiIEF JUSTICE and a Special Jury.) rinwrs v. OFFAL°. This was an action of debt, to which was se off a contract. Tile plaintiff is an extensive foreign merchant, and the defend. ant the London representative of a Moorish house at Mogadore. The case occupied the whole morning, and presented nothing of the slightest interest except the stately figures and the rich costumes of some Moorish witnesses. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD C 01.1117: Francis Cooke aged 22, and .11fi•ed Barnes 20, described as labourers, were c h arge d with feloniously receiving on the 14th of June last, 12 yards of silk, six cards of calico, and eight Tares of fringe, value 20s. the property of Thomas Warren, , well knowing the same to have been stolen. Mr. Philips appeared for the prisoners. • '1 hos. Warren, the prosecutor, who is the well known up holsterer in Oxford-street, deposed that he entered into a con tract with the Committee of the Spitaltields Ball to furnish the Italian Opera I louse with decorations en the occasion of the mag nificent ball which took place at the Opera House, under the auspices of her Majesty, for the relief of the distressed Spital fields weavers. The decorations on being returned to witness, were found to be deficient in several instances, and the property now produced composed a part of the deficient decorations. John Johnforth, C 182, stated that he was on d uty i n Pall-mall on th e 14th o f June, when he saw the prisoners loitering about under the Opera collonade. lie shortly after wards observed Cooke go into No. 4, Pall-mall, and in a short time come out having a bundle under his arm, which contained some of the property identified by the last witness. Barnes was watching outside. Witness asked Cooke where he got the bundle, and he said that he had it from his mother He also gave his mother's proper name and place of residence. Barnes said he knew nothing at all about it. Cross-examined by Mr. Pm wrs—Went to Cooke's mother. She sweeps at the Opera House. Spoke to her on the sebjeet. Have not got her here as a witness to• day. Henry Shepherd, another police-constable, confirmed the first part of the last witness's evidence. _ _ AIL Pitt r.LIPS then briefly addressed the Jury for the defence. The COMMON SERG EA NT said the probability was that Cooke had received the bundle from his mother. The Jury almost immediately returned a verdict of " Not Guilty" against both prisoners. The COMMON SERGEANT mutioned Cooke not to come there again—a little more ' and he wou'd have been transported. Patrick Daley, :20, labourer, was indicted for stealing two pounds weight of copper, the property of Messrs. Truman, flanhury, and Co., his employers. Mr. Bodkin conducted the prosecution. The prisoner said nothing in his defence, and he was found Guilty. • The COMMON SERGEANT sentenced the prisoner to be kept to hard labour for one year: William Connell, si , was indicted for stealing a sovereign, the property of John Coppise. The wire of the prosecutor, wishing to purchase a half pennyworth of milk of the prisoner, who is a milkman, gave him, as she thought, two farthings in payment, aid the prisoner went away, and directly afterwards, the good woman toned that she had given the prisoner, by mistake, a sovereign and a farthing, instead of two farthings. The hus band went after the prisoner and accused him of taking the sovereign, and wished him to give it up. lie denied that he had it, but the man insisted on searching him, and gave him into custody, when he admitted that he had the sovereign, and gave it up. The prisoner received a good character. The COMMON SERGEANT told the jury that it had been de cided that the art imputed to the prisoner amounted to larceny, and if the jury believed the facts to be proved, they must, in law. return a verdict of guilty. The Jury convicted the prisoner, but recommended him to mercy, and the Common Sergeant ordered him to be imprisoned in Newgate for seven days. The Court adjourned soon after Five o'Clock. :YEW COURT. David Crane, aged 19, described as a labourer, and John Conway, aged 50, were charged, the former with stealing a watch and appendages, value 9/., the property of Charles Steedman, in his dwelling-house, and the latter with receiving the same, well knowing them them to have been stolen. It appeared from the evidence, which was of a very volumi nous character, that the prisoner Crane had been seen looking in at the prosecutor's shop, and immediateiy afterwards the window was found to be broken, and a large quantity of pro perty was missing, including the watch in question. The other isoner subsequently purchased the watch, with its appendages, from Crane, for 11., and having publicly worn it far some time he pledged it for 2/. 105. The Jury acquitted Conway, and found Crane Guilty. Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK sentenced Crane to ten years' transportation. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOIV-STIIEET. After the night charges had been disposed of yesterday morning, Mr. Thomas Steele, accompanied by some members of the London Repeal Association, waited on Mr. Jardine, Ole , sittin4 Magistrate, for the purpose of communicating the poi ticulars of a circumstance which came to his knowledge while presiding at a meeting held last week in the .Bloomsbury t►ict. lie said be considered it his imperative and, solemn duty nut to to-e a moment in putting the Court iu *session of information he had received at a recent meeting of Re pealers, whose loyalty was unshaken, and in every partieular opposed to violence. When the proceedings were about to terminate, a member rose and said he had just left another ' meeting, which was held for a very different purpose, where he heard a person make use of language of, a most inflammatory nature. The expressions used were, that" her Majesty should be made. away with." He immediately dissolved the meeting, and in consequence of what took lace in St. James's-park, which every loyal subject must feel indignant at, he as amis.. ►nan, considered it his duty- to lay the matter before the consti tutetfauthorities. . • . Mr. JA.untNr: inquired if the person was in 'attend ance who gave the intelligence at the Repeal meeting? Mr. Steele replied, that although he repAatcdly solicited him to attend, he refused, unless compelled by Magisterial authority. DINE—In that case I am at a loss bow to act, for the subject comes to my knowledge second-hand. Mr. Steele said the individual alluded to was a tailor, named Crow, and he assigned as a reason far not attending that he way engaged in finishing a coat, whieh should be delivered at a certain time, or he would disoblige his employers. A member of the meeting said Crow resided at No. 11, Great. Chapel-street, Soho, and a message sent irons the Court would, no doubt, cause him to attend. The language was used at an Abstinence meeting, held in Ship yard, Temp'.e. bar, and was to the effect that the Queen, the Bishops, and the aristocracy should be made away with. On hearing of the cir cumstance from Crow, he related it to Mr. Steele, and could further satisfy himself upon the subject on Thursday next, when another meeting will be held. Mr. Steele said he would consider it a dereliction of his duty if he neglected to lay the facts of the case before the Court, and for that purpose came on Sunday last, but finding it closed, went away. Mr. JARDINE was willing to give him every credit for the prompt manner he had taken up the subject, and every atten tion should be paid to the information he had given. Mr. Steele—l am a warden of the London Repealers, and my object, and that of every member of the body to which I belong, is to assist by every means in my power to preserve the peace, not only here, but also in my native country. Mr. JARDINE directed Inspector .Medlicott, who was resent during the conversation to send a constable to Crow, and let him know his attendance was immediately required. Mr. Steele and his friends then thanked the Magistrate and withdrew. In the course of the day Crow entered the Court, and being taken into a private room, Mr. J.% R.DINE had a short eon versation with him. Ile repeated the account given by Mr. Steele, and said the language was made use of at a Chartist meeting, but he considered it merely such a tirade as is usually made use of at their meetings, and nothing of a threat ening nature was intended against her Majesty, or any other person. He then gave his address, and promised should he be required at any future time, to pay every attention to the orders of the Court. Au odd-looking shabby-genteel individual, with a surtout coat buttoned up to the throat, and who wore . his mustachios and beard, which %vete perfectly white, in the King Charles or Colonel Sibthorp style, was charged with being drunk, .acl incapable of taking care of himself, in Scotland-yard, last mgut about eight o'clock. The ease having been proved, Mr. JARDINE asked him what he had to say. The prisoner replied, with a slight Tipperary brogue,—" I - don't know, plate your Worship, what to say to the charge. I lave it to your own good feelings, only I hope you won't lay on a very heavy fine, case I'm very poor, your Worship. Mr. .1 A ant NE— llow do you get your living? Prisoner—l'm a retired Clerk of the Ordnance, your Worship. Mr . J ARIMSE -Arm have a pension, I suppose, and have just received part of it? Prisoner—l have a pension, sure enough ; but I hav'ut received it for a long time. 1 have been on a sick bed. Plase your Worship, that is, I ought to say— Mr. J_+ itDINE—WeII, you may go now, but do not come here again. Prisoner--I'm very much obliged to your Worship. Thank you, Sir. And kissing his hand in an insinuating manner to the Magistrate, he retired: MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.—Mr. John Rees, manager of the National Provincial Bank at Devonport, destroyed him self on the second instant, by cutting his throat with a razor in his bedroom at the banking-house. It appears that he was married about twenty-three years since to a lady of suitable condition in life, who, within two years of her marriage, eloped from her house with a military officer, and has resided for several years with her paramour at Brussels. Her companion having recently died, leaving her with a family ofseven children, she was compelled to return to the neighbourhood of London, whence it is surmised she has been making repeated inroad on his purse, and it is said that she has latterly threatened to come to Devonport with a view to enforce some unjust and preposterous claims. These circumstances have bad such an effect on Mr. Rees' mind, as to nearly disqualify him for business, and at length induced him to resolve on destroying himself. He rose at seven o'clock on Saturday morning lass, and partly dressing himself, descended to the office, olives I,e was last seen alive by the servant, avho observed the top of his head over the desk curtain. The man went to the stable, and ou repairing to his master's bedroom at the breakfast-hour (nine o'clock) discovered him seated on the sofa, partially lean . big on his left arm, with the razor firmly clasped in his right hand, and his throat cut from ear to ear. On the table was fodnd a sheet of paper, without date or signature, on which was written in pencil, a half-lucid. half-incoherent statement of his feelings, and of the impossibilitybutitis Magistrateu l k o oi f Lfo h tv, i h s . ne existingv‘b.oh borough rleghlu:enodi of y e e the v ltres rt sure of his misfortunes.
