N.B.—lt is the intention of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue to publish in a separate list the names and residences of all persons surcharged in double duty for sporting without certificates. COUNTRY VARRET3. ~•---. DERBY SMITHFIELD.-MAT 22. There was a better supply of fat beasts to - Jay, and the quality was generally good ; the attendance of buyers was equ ,1:y large, out some few head of cattle were left unsold. The pens were also well filled with sheep, and a good de mand for them. The number of lambs was unusually large and rather heavy sale. The supply of fat and store calves was by no means large, and high prices were asked for them —the best quality scarce and in good request. Fat pigs more plentiful. The following were the quotations :—Beef, 60 to 7d ; mutton, 6d to 7d ; lamb, Od to Od ; veal, 6id to 7d per lb. ; pigs, Os Od to lOs Od per score ; rough fat, 5s 0.1 to Os per 141 b.; hides, 31d to eiLd per lb ; calf-skins, 31 Ito d per lb. house would have failed in its duty to itself and the people if it did not unequivocally express its in dignation on the conduct of the First Minister of the Crown. He (Mr. Whiteside) admitted the im portance of the question, and contrasted the views of the hon. member for Oxford and those of the noble lord on the question—gentlemen who had rode in the same carriage on this question who had expounded their views with great ability, but not with equal consistency ; and if there was a justification re quired for the motion of the right hon. gentleman, he would ask any impartial and attentive listener to these speeches whether there was ever exhi bited before that house, or any reasonable as sembly, more striking proof of inconsistency of opinion and insincerity of conduct, not on email mat tere, but on the greatest; subject that could well occupy the minds of statesmen, on this question. On the ques tion of the war, the noble lord bad said he was for war, and the honourable gentleman that he was for peace, and would be satisfied with a treaty with Russia, but the noble lord was for something more substantial. The right hon. gentleman thought the revision of the treaty of 1841 would be of much value in the settlement of this question, but the noble lord thought it would amount to nothing, because, as he very truly said, without any fresh treaty the Sultan must call out for help when assailed. (Hear, hear.) The honourable gentleman thought these terms real and substantial, but the noble lord considered them futile and useless, and so the argument stood betvivn them. One part of the noble lord's speech claimed his attention on account of its fairness, be lieving that everything the noble lord said, from his position, entitled him to implicit respect, and that was that the negotiations with which he was charged to conduct at Vienna that, although the noble lord thought the success of those negotiations came within the range o possibility, he felt at no time sanguine of The chief of the negotiations had, in fact, described him self as the leader of the forlorn hope of diplomacy— (hear)—and such being the case, they were surprised if hon. members still hesitated to vote for the motion of hi right honourable friend. (Hear.) The result was that those who proposed to pursue a direct and honest course had the alternative but to declare that they would do all in their power to carry on the war and send diplomacy to the winds. (Hear.) Why, what was the effect of the statements of the noble lord the member for the city of London ? Why, that he had no faith in diplomacy, and by doing so he had completely destroyed the well•drawn arguments of his noble friend at the head of the Government. (Hear, hear.) The opinion of the noble lord was doubtless that it had been the intention of Russia to destroy Turkey but for the in- terference of England and France, and yet with those opinions strongly impressed within him the noble lord had said, on the motion of the right hon. gentleman the member for Manchester, there were still hopes that ne• gotiations might be entered into, and attended with the best effects. For his own part he entertained no such fallacious ideas believing from the noble lord's speech of last night that any further nego tiations were useless. (Hear.) Much had been said about what Russia had done for the free navigation of the Danube. In his opinion the course she b a d p ursue d was an insult to any civilised nation in Europe. (Hear.) The sketch that had been given last night by the noble lord of the course adopted by Russia, — of her filching king doms and bribing officials, was frightful in the extreme, and he thought that if Count Nesselrode wanted to preserve the good opinion of the nations of the work:, with respect to the conduct of Russia, he could not do better than enrol the sketch given by the noble lord the member for London in the Chancellerie of St. Petersburg, as it would be a fitting memento of the perfidy of Russia. _ . The noLle lord described the evil we had to contend with—what was the remedy ? Why, it was the mown tain and the mouse over again. (Laughter.) The co lossal power of Russia must, in some way or other, be reduced, said the noble lord. il3 (Mr. Whiteside) listened for the remedy the noble lord prescribed ; and what did he point out ? Nothing—really nothing. (Laughter.) All the noble for i suggested, as far as he (Mr. White side) could gather was, that something must bo done which was a very safe theory to perform. (Et - ear, and laughter.) But, said, the noble lord to the Opposition, " Why don't you tell us what to do ?" ([Tear.) If the Government would change places with them (the Opposition) they would shew them what to do. (Loud and prolongel cheers fr3m the Opposition, and laughter) Was it ever the duty of the Opposition to do anything more than criticise ? Ho (Ur. Whiteside) wished to know from the noble lord, who was such an adroit leader of Parliament, when it ever was the duty of the Opposition to dictate the course of business to the Go- vernment ? The charge brought against the Government was that its language in this question hat been very unsatisfactory and evasive. (Cheers.) Did the noble lord explain what the noble lord the Premier meant? He had not and he (Mr. W.) ventured to say the noble lord did not really know what the Premier meant—it was a very difficult question to determine. (Hear, hear.) The hon. and learned gentleman then proceeded to read several extracts from the speeches of the noble lord in illustration of his argument, and was EDINBURGH GRAIN.-MAT 23.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.—RE-APPEARANCE OP MADAME GRlSl.—Grisi has re-appeared, rather unexpectedly. After her declared intention to retire from the stage, and her "farewell performances " last season before her departure for America, the public had given up all thoughts of see ing her again, till a few days ago, when it was announced that she had made an engagement for ten nights to per form the principal characters of her repertoire. The an nouncement was accompanied by an explanation of the reasons which had induced her to take this step; but this was wholly unnecessary. Grisi is too great and too de servedly a favourite to have had any ground for appre hension as to her reception ; the public are only too glad to have her before them once more. She appeared last evening in the character of Leonora in La Favorita, oce of the finest of her parts, not only as a vocal per formance, but as a piece of beautiful and pathetic acting. When she presented herself she received a most enthu siastic welcome from a very crowded house. Among the distinguished company present we noticed their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cambridge, the Prin cess Mary, and the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Meck lenburg-Strelitz. TFIE SOUTH SEA COMPANY.—A special meeting of the South Sea Company was held yesterday, when the directors presented a report showing the progress made in the realisation of its assets. At the close of the pro ceedings a formal resolution was agreed to adopting the report, and authorising the directors to make the distri bution in the manner suggested. Mr. W. Whateley (Conservative) has offered himself a candidate for Bath, in the room of Mr. Phinn, who has accepted the office of one of the Secretaries to the Admiralty. A meeting of the National Brazilian Mining Associa tion was held yesterday morning, when it was resolved to appoint Mr. Corney and Mr. Hartley to co-operate with Mr. Sheppard in protecting the property for the benefit of the shareholders. The success of the late legal proceedings and the desirableness of winding-up the company in the Court of Chancery with a view to its reorganisation were the points brought under con sideration. The estates are represented as valuable, and it is alleged that it properly developed they can be ren dered productive. The position of Mr. Edward Oxen ford, as sole surviving director and trustee, was referred to, the arrangement of his claim being a question of im portance. It was stated that there is every wish to deal with it fairly, but the shareholders express a determina tion not to sacrifice their rights. The continental advices continue to bring firm quota tions of the rates of exchange from all quarters. - The amount of gold arrived yesterday from Australia is 35,045 ounces, valued at 136,1801., the respective quantities being 32,600 by the Orwell from Melbourne, 1,936 by the Waterloo, and 509 by the Wooloomooloo, both from Sydney. The Fortuna,- from Melbourne, is also reported, but her gold, if any, remain., to be ascer tained. The value of the specie by the Euxine, from, Bombay, is 8,1621. A further examination in the case of Messrs. David son and Gordon took place yesterday at Guildhall, in the presence of a numerous attendance of persons con nected with mercantile interests, and another adjourn ment was necessary to complete the whole of the evi dence. Vition SUN OFFICE', &vem o'Clock. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. —(THIS EVENING.) The LORD CHANOiLLOR took his seat on the woolcack at five o'clock. Lord BROUGHAM moved for certain returns con nected with the administration of the criminal law as regards the trial of persons accused of petty larcenies. THE CHURCH IN CANADA.. The Bishop of OXFORD rose to move for an address presented to her Majesty by the House of Assembly and Legislative Council of Canada, praying for the removal of disadvantages to which the Church in Canada was sub jected, and to enable it to elect its own bishops, and also for any answer which had been given thereto. The righ t rev. prelate said that when the notice for those returns was placed bef ire their lordships, it would be time enough for him to enter into details on the subject. He would take that opportunity of observing that he be lieved the Church and State in this country benefitted by the relations that existed between them, and he for one would not see this relation altered. The supremacy of the Crown, on the whole, in its influence was highly beneficial to the Church of this land. The reason why the Church of England had authority with the Crown was this : the Church of England was acknowledged to b• the national Church, and every step tending to take from it that character took from it also that wholesome influence which be wished to preserve. Earl GRANVILLE said., he had- an-objection to the returns asked for. The Earl of DERBY said he regretted the course which had been taken with respect to the Church of Canada. He felt, however, that he was by no means responsible for what he considered was a violation of the engagements which had been entered into between the Church and State of Canada. The Bishop of OXFORD said he bad not given his sanction to the Clergy Reserves Bill ; on the contrary, be considered the act to be a spoliat,on of church property. THE NEGOTIATIONS AT VIENNA. Earl GREY rose to move that an humble address be presented to her Majesty, to thank her Majesty for hav ing ordered the protocols of the recent negotiations at Vienna to be laid before them—to inform her Majesty that this house deeply deplores the failure of the attempt to put an end, by these negotiations, to the calamities of the war in which this country is now en gaged, and to express our opinion that the proposals of Russia were such as to afford a fair prospect of conclud ing a peace by which all the original objects of the war might have been gained, and by which her Majesty and her allies might have obtained all the advantages which can reasonably be demanded from Russia. The noble earl adverted to the difficulties under which he laboured i❑ bringing forward the motion, but he felt that it would be incurring a serious responsibility to delay it any longer. He then proceeded to enumerate the calamities of the war. It appeared from the most authentic documents that, up to the receipt of the latest reports, there were nearly 250,000 of the Res slan army destroyed. The losses on the side of Turkey had been no less than 120,000 men. We were painfully conscious of the losses which we had susta ned in our own army since the war began. On the whole, he felt he was under the mark when he stated that 500,000 human beings bad already perished amid the horrors of war. Together with the awful sacrifice of human life, there had already been about 5 0,000,000/. expended upon the war. (LEFT SPEAKiNG.) 11.0175 E OF COIVIAIONS.—(THIS EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. The following bills were read a third time and passed : —Caledonian Railway ; Carmarthen and Cardigan Rail way ; Executor and Trustee Society ; National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society ; Peterborough and Wel lingborough Road ; Wigan and Preston Roads, North of Yarrow ; Sligo Gas.

Graham, two petitions from Carlisle, for the repeal of the Sunday Beer Bill ; by Mr. Lowe, several petitions in favour of the bill for legalising mar riage with a deceased wife's sister. PASSPORTS TO PARIS. Mr. WILSON said passports would be issued free to the woikmen and artisans of the United Kingdom, to visit the Paris Exhibition, to he available for one month. NEW WRIT FOR BATH. Sir J. W. JOLLIFFE moved for a Mew writ for Bath, in the place of Mr. Phinn, appointed Second Secretary to the Admiralty. . After a few remarks from Sir C. Wood, Sir F. Thesi ger, and Sir F. Kelly, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he received this morning an application from Mr. Phinn for the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds to enable him to vacate his seat. The grant of an office under the Crown was brought to him for signature, and he signed it this morning. He believed it was the intention of the Sec retary to the Treasury to move for a new writ this evening, with the corrsct name of the office which Mr. Phinn ap plied to accept, as it was not the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. (Hear.) After a few words from Mr. DISR &ELI, who re commended that some distinct understanding should be come to as to the practice in future in such cases, Sir W. JOLLIFFE withdrew Isis motion. CADET APPOINTMENTS TO THE ARMY. In reply to Mr. 11. A. BRUCE, Mr. MONSELL said that the system which had pre vailed at Woolwich with regard to the appointment of cadets had been exclusively that of nomination. Within the last few days, however, the system had come under the knowledge of the Secretary of State, and as a consi derable number of cadets were required in the Engineers and Artillery, the expediency of alter ing the present mode of appointment was deemed necessary. The pressing emergency for these cadets rendered it impossible that any permanent arrangement could be at once made, but a plan of selection had been adopted which was a great improvement upon the old one, which would be based upon the result of a public examination, showing what use they had made of the means afforded to them of acquiring information in their profession. (Hear, hear.) ,By these means the best men would be selected. THE CRIMEAN MEDALS. Mr. STAFFORD asked the Under Secretary for War what arrangements had been made for forwarding the Crimean medal to the sick and wounded soldiers who were at .present at home with their friends! Mr. F. PEEL said that 2,000 medals were in the hands of Hunt and Roskill, fur delivering to those sol diers who had returned to this country from the Crimea, and were not present at the ceremony on the 18th inst., and would be forwarded to them by the firm he had mentioned. He might take that opportunity of also informing the house that arrangements had been made to send 8,000 medals per fortnight to the Crimea for distribution there ; and further, that those soldiers who received medals on the 18th would shortly receive certificates upon Hunt and Ro s kill, i n order to obtain their clasps, to which they might be entitled. THE GOVERNORSHIP OF GIBRALTAR. Mr. BRIGHT said he had often had to complain, by personal representation and memorial, of the interference of the present Governor of Gibraltar with the trade of that port, which complaint he had now to repeat. He had been informed by the Duke of Newcastle, on a for mer occasion, that the term of office of Sir R. Gardiner would shortly expire, but that officer remained there still. He wished, therefore, to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether it was the intention of the Govern. went or not to supersede him ? Lord PALMERSTON said that the period of service of Sir R. Gardiner had expired, and that he now only held office until his successor was appointed. THE VIENNA CONFERENCE. Mr. ROEBUCK said—Sir, there is a report abroad that the Conference at Vienna has been renewed. I wish to ask whether the Government have received any intimation of such a renewal ! Lord PALMERSTON—AII I can say is, that no conference has been held knee the last reported in the papers ; and before any fresh conference is held, the English Minister at Vienna must receive authority from the Government at home to attend it. (A. laugh.) - - Mr. M. GIBSON said he did not quite understand the answer of the noble lord to the question just put. The noble lord at the head of the Government stated a few days since that the conference at Vienna was not closed, but suspended, and that Lord Westmorland re tained full powers to ac 4. Re wished to know if those powers bad been withdrawn, and when ? (Rear.) Lord PALMERSTON said the powers referred to had not been withdrawn from the noble lord. It was one thing to possess them, and another to exercise them, and that must depend on the instructions he received. THE CONDUCT OF THE WAR. ADJOURNED DEBATE. The adjourned debate was resumed by Mr. WHITESIDE, who said that after what had oo ourred in that use with reference to this question, the (LEFT SPEAKING.) SCOTCH SEQUESTRATIONS. Alex.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. 1 100 - SE OF LORDS—{YESTERDAY.) NEWSPAPER. STAMP DITTIES BILL. -Viscount CANNING moved the second reading of Mils bill. He said, that although the subject to which this bill related had of late years been frequently discussed in the other house, it was a l ong time sines it had been brought before their lord s hi ps, owing, perhaps, chiefly to the cir cumstancethat it was connected with the public revenue ; but the state of the law was now such that it was not only desirable, but absol u t e l y necessary that some change should take place. Th e ear l y history of the stamp on newspapers might be very s h or tl y told. The first mention of a stamp duty was found i n th e re i gn of Queen Anne, at the time when newspapers, having ceased to be mere chro niclers of events, assumed the character of commentators and critics on what was passing around, and also that of partisans of the various factions in th e s t a t e. T he freedom with which they exercised these functions seemed to have been ill taken, not only by the ministers of the day, but also by Parliament. On one occasion a mes. swe came down from the Crown to Parliament, call ing its attention to what w a s des cr ib e d as a nn i kance, and asking for an a d equa t e reme d y; an d th e resu l t was the passing of e law imposing a stamp duty. A stamp duty of a halfpenny was the remedy which suggested itself to th e Legisl a t ure . N o c h ange took place in the duty until the year 1776. In that year, under the administration of Lord North, the duty was raised 50 per cent. In introducing the measure to the house, Lord North was reported to have ( sai id that " it was a matter of dispute whether newspapers sl more harm than good; he pronounced no judgment on that question ; but one thing was certain that they largely disseminated calumnies ; that they abused the persons and These misrepresented the measures of Ministers ; that they were bought and read with great avidity, but that it was quite clear that the cause of this avidity was not a mere desire for knowledge. were administration the place under the North to recommend the House of Commons to increase the duty. OR t wo occasions a further increase took reoafsomnsr.whp.iictht.led That Lord Minister took _ pretty of the matter as Lord North ; declaringmtich the same view of _ora• mons that in his opinion nto the House _ e n . dered an article of luxury, azspapers could only be r aj making people pay dearly f oe_ that he felt no hesitation itt took place in 1815, when the)iut them. The last increase there was this indication o f tht Wta. raised to 4d. - and 'Vint ill *bids crease was made, that shortly rafter, administration, by one of the acts Lor d , of endinder the same commonly called the Acts," the . Castlereagh, necessity of giving securities was imposed on the proprietors of - He had taken the liberty, of cal)ing their to of tion to these features in the:coarly history of the s a ta e p . duty, because he apprehended that any objection whichm might be made to the measure would be based, partly at least, on the fact that the Government were asking their lordships to consent to an abandonment of revenue. It was impossible to deny this fact ; but he denied that the question ought to be considered entirely or even mainly as one of revenue. He thought he had shown that hitherto it had not been so considered ; and he contended that if any good cause could be shown for making this change their lordships ought not to be deterred from making it because the question of revenue was to a certain extent involved in the measure. If the question of the news paper stamp were not dealt with chiefly as one of revenue la the early stages, by which the stamp advanced from a halfpenny to fourpence----the maximum which it had at tained--still less had it been dealt with in that light at a subsequent period. The next change was made in 1836, when the noble lord near him (Lord Monteagle) was Chan cellor of the Exchequer in Lord Melbourne's Government, and he believed he did not misrepresent the noble lord's motives or arguments on that occasion when he said that the penny, which was then substituted for fourpence, was retained avowedly not as a source of revenue, but as an equivalent for the postal service performed for newspaper proprietors by the state. As long as the duty was 4d. it was defended, not as a source of revenue, but as a measure of literary police ; but since the period to which he had just referred it had been defended merely as a postal charge. The imposition of the penny duty had of late years involved great anomalies and inconveniences, arising partly from the unexpected and various growth of newspaper publica tions since the time when the duty was first imposed, and partly from the complicated and very imperfect definition of a newspaper. In the first act that was-passed, the act of 1712, the definition given of a newspaper was, "A paper containinc , public news, intelligence or occurrences in Great Britain, to be dispersed and made public." This definition pervaded all the acts from that of Queen Anne to that of 1836. But it was not the only one. In 1819, at the time when the act of Lord Castlereagh to which he had already referred was passed, the definition was enlarged, and was made to include not only publications containing news, intelligence, or occurrences, but also publications con taining " comments or observations thereupon, or upon any matter in church or state." At the same time the operation of the act was limited to publications of that description which were printed at intervals of less than twenty-six days, and there was a limitation of size. Five or six years later, the definition was made to include newspapers consisting wholly or chiefly of adver tisements. Thus their lordships perceived there were three definitions, and the result was that under the present system it had been found almost impossible to comply with all the requirements of the law. Lord MONTEAGLE said that having had to deal with the subject which the noble lord had brought under the consideration of the house, he wished to state the objec tions he entertained to the present measure. His first and strongest objection to the measure was a financial one. The sacrifice of revenue which the noble lord asked the house to assent to was unnecessary, uncalled for, impolitic, in some respects unjust, and, above all things, inopportune. (Hear.) He did not ask for the continuance of the tax from any apprehension that its repeal would produce political or moral mischief to the country. So far from any of the evil consequences which some persons apprehended from cheapening the press being realiseq, it was a fact that, from the year 1835, when the stamp was reduced from 4.1. to Id., up to the present time, thOre was a progressive improv e . ment in the tone and temper of periodical publication.. But ho thought their lordships ought to hesitate before assenting to this measure, because they were not in a pbsi tion to sacrifice revenue. It was not when they were en ga4cd in an expensive war, and were obliged to go into the market as borrowers, that they shoald he called on to give up a portion of the permanent revenue of the country. The bill was then read a second time. ADJOURNMENT FOR THE HOLIDAYS. Earl GR ANVILLE gave notice that to-morrow he should move that the house at its rising adjourn till Mon day we-k. The other bills upon the table were forwarded a stage, and their lordships adjourned at half-past seven. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. FOREIGN POLICY. —THE CONFERENCES. Mr. DISRA.ELI rose to move the resolution he had placed on the paper, and spoke as follows :—Sir, I rise for the purpose of stating to the house the reasons which have induced me to trouble it with the resolution which is now in your band, and the objects I have in view in moving Ithat resolution. I have fur some time been watching, as I suppose all have watched, with intent and deep anxiety, the conduct of the Government of this country in respect to the great question of peace or war, and especially and in the most significant manner the conduct of that Govern. ment during the prosOcution of the conferences at Vienna, and I have imbibed an opinion with respect to the inten tions of Government which has filled me with great regret and distrust as to the consequences of their conduct. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") I have thought that there was, ou the part of the Government, language so ambi guous, and language so uncertain, that I have been led to reflect on what must be the cause of circum stances which, undoubtedly, whether erroneously or the reverse, have filled the public mind with very great disgust and discontent—(hear, hear)—and which certainly demanded the attentive consideration of all men, who felt that they had incurred responsibility by accepting a seat in this house. (Hoar, hear.) It was impossible for me, althouthis opinion, t o as k t h at the senti mentsgohfetnhteerhtng house should be declared on these circum stances so long as negotiations were taking place. Every body knows, that if I had attempted to do so, the obvious avower to me would be, that her Majesty's Government were engaged at the moment in negotiations and confi dential communications with the repreeentati rex of foreign powers, and that it would be injurious to the interests of the country if Parli ament were to interfere with* their labours su ch e an house objection ; and who d can not i m ag haveimagine b ib e r e e a held validmoment th by th ese l (Hear.) But at l as t th e prot oc ols of negotiations were produoed, after rome in 9 tur7; , and, _,_ af e te ,.. r an unusual lapse of time, they were laid on Vieni7l.l: of the house, and I imagined that the Pr im e opportunity con duct, would o f course have taken the earliest the labours of • to have ask e d the opinion of Parliament on o also have would following the pr ece d en t s t h at s h ou ld h ave gu ided his the repre sen t a ti ve of his Governmen t , and taken the opportunity of clearly had intended to do of Commons what the Government ofpeace or war—of himself in embarrassing as. with respect to this course, without committing explicitly telling the tails—of manfully, precisely , and ex ' - t meant has the Government Parliament and the country w e subject in future. (Hear.) laying before the House the Prime Minister to take that I more than once solicittt to the last I hoped the Prime to do with reference course ; and I confess t hat that he should be performing his duty sion, and have felt t his sovereign and the country by doing more faithfully to that the Prime Minister must have known so. I had hoped mind was in that state which made it ne cessary would have a g ain thought over his first conclu sion, to lead and enlighten public that the publi c :, 'acts of surpassing magnitude, and that the I have been the to ask, in the • noble lord wou ld °ouste d customary manner, the opinion of Parliament tutional an on the course and character of those negotiations, and the m at e y which he would pledge us to pursue. (Hear, hear.) Well, sir, I was disappointed, and I think I may vent opinioncessary f o o n r a t n h b j d to sa y that the country was d isappointed also. (Loud cries of "Bear, hear.") I think may venture to say that it would have been satisfactory in the present perplexed and sullen disposition of the nation, if, at the on of the negotiations which had been carried on —on our part with unusual pomp and ostentation and had, therefore, raised a remarkable amount of interest, if the First Minis ter had come forward and taken the opportunity of fairly putting the views of the Administration before Parliament, and had added such an expression of opinion as would have sustained the courage and the spirit of the people. (Cheers.) But, nothing of the kind was done ; but still I frankly confess, I hesitated as to whether I should take the step I wished to take, and shrank from what I felt was my duty, froth —I admit a cowardlffear, a fear wh ee l h o T_ admit was too influential, that if a man in the exercise to a l his duty in this house took a step Which might l opento the accu tegrtheaes question m censure of the Government, he world accu sation of an unworthy motive. und t e b b r e ee th n e co in d fl e u c e li n n e Al declined—l am ashamed to say, mo r e to do that which, holding the indul gence of my friends, I felt wo u ldegen tleman , the member for poßtio h n a l ve d do beenby the m y duty.
