w `~~ was in the habit of taking 25/, 301, and 351. a day, and on an ordinary day, not market days. Other shopkeepers were suffering equally. One gentleman assured him that in his two shops he did not now take so much as he used to do in one shop. He (Mr. Bonner) 'wished to correct an error which had appeared in a report of a former speech of his. He stated then, that a friend of his had for ten weeks past been in the habit of pur chasing fourteenand fifteen wedding rings in a week. In the reporting his speech he was made to say that the num ber was 15 during the whole ten weeks, instead of 15 per week. This was a fact of a fearful character. It showed the fearful condition to which the people were reduced. Where they used to have fifty weekly applicants for relief, they had now 261. Such was the case last Friday. There were multitudes who would not apply for relief, although they needed it, so that the number of applicants for relief was but a small proof of the very groat distress existing. The present Government was looked upon with contempt, and when a person spoke to a poor man of the law, the man lost his temper, and spoke in the most unmitigated contempt of the institutions of the country. A Government was only valuable as it was respected.—(Loud cheers.) When a Govern ment was not respected, there was little chance of its going on comfortably. He believed that many of the •workpeople in his neighbourhood had determined upon coming up to London—but not in a body, for a troop of soldiers to intercept—b - ut they were talk ing of coming up in small companies to Lon don, there to meet and to press their demands on those parties which oppressed them. He (Mr. Bon ner) did not countenance such language ; but the people said they Wonld have bread—they would not starve in the midst of plenty—they would demand it from those who un justly withheld it from them. He thought there was serious , ground for apprehending that unless a change took place violence would be resorted to.— (Hear, hear.) They . had in his neighbourhood three relieving officers, where they had only one a few months ago, and a sub-committee - of guardians had within the last week been appointed to assist those relieving officers. A friend of his had told him.that the nailers in the neighbourhood were working at starvation prices ; the chair-makers Were at a stand-still, and rob bery was fearfully prevalent ; these robberies being committed by working men. He heard of a man, yesterday, having destroyed himself, in conse quence of the distressed state of his family. He believed that if the Corn-laws were repealed there would be at once a happy feeling throughout the country. It was said by some, that to do this they must have complete suffrage. lie begged to say that no one more firmly approved of that principle. He thought every mutt of twenty-one years of age ought to have a vote. But it would not be a relief to the people. 'this was. merely a means towards an end, whereas the repeal of the Corn-laws was an end. They cared more about feeding the people than giving a man a vote. He thought they had committed a great mistake respecting the Reform Bill. That Bill was a kind of ladder to a better system, but the people did not ascend it, they rested contented that it was there, until their enemies had taken it away from them. So it would be with complete suffrage. Uniiersal suffrage would be a national benefit, and not a universal one—it would be a benefit to this country, but not to America. Therefore he said go for free trade first.—(Cheers.) In the Asso ciation to which he belonged a proposition had been made to merge the Association in that of the National Complete Suffrage Association. The subject was dis cussed, but they determined to go for free trade first— (Cheers) —and all of those members were suffrage men. —(Hear, hear.) There was an old adage, do not at tempt too many things at once ; but the Suffrage Asso ciation said, do a good many things at once. He (Mr. Bonner) thought the Conference ought to have a meet ing of the ministers of London in order that they might take a leading part in the agitation. He would conclude by relating a little anecdote, which had occurred under his own observation. A landed proprietor was holding an argument with a poor Irishman on the Corn-laws. The landlord was getting the worst cf the argument, when, to put a stopper on the Irishman, he said, " Why if the Corn-laws are repealed we shall not be able to take your pork and beef from Ireland, as they will send it from other countries, so that Ireland will be ruined." " Well," said the Irishman, "I suppose it must be so ; but faith, I don't think we_should be worse off, for then we should have to eat the pork and beef ourselves, and by my sowl we don't do that same now."—(Laughter.) The meeting then adjourned till eleven o'clock to-day. NEW WORK BY THE MARQUESS OF LONDON - DERRY.—W 6 are requested- to state that Mr. Colburn, of Great Marlborough-street, has this day published " A Steam Voyage to Constantinople, by the Rhine and Danube, in 1840-41 ;" by C. W. Vane, Marquess of Londonderry, G. C. 8., Sze. ; to which is annexed the Author's Correspondence with Prince Metternich, Lords Palmerston, Ponsonby, &c. ; in 2 vols., Bvo., with illus trations, price 28s. bOund, which can now be had of all booksellers.' Mr. Colburn has also just published, Mr. Vigne's Travels in Cashmere, and the countries adjoining the mountain course of the Indus, &c., with observa tions on the late, and now passing, events in Affghan istan in 2 vols., Bvo., with avaluable map, and twenty two An atrocious and extraordinary attempt to murder was made on Saturday in the Rue des Trois Bornes, Faubourg du Temple. A journeyman mason, named Colet, with a wife and six children, have lived fn- two years in very humble lodgings in the above named street, Faubourg du Temple. Cslet had for some time taken to drinking, neglected his work, and at last got drunk so frequently, that he could earn nothing, and to meet the expenses of his vicious habits, he , by brutal treatment forced his • wife to give him the major part of the small sums which she gained by washing. At length, in a fit of despondency, he ac knowledged to her his errors, expressed his conviction that she could live and maintain her children better with out him, and declared his determination to shoot himself if she would give him enough to buy a pistol. Sho en deavoured to divert his thoughts from this gloomy prospect, and lead him to better resolutions. Her re monstrances, however, only revived his evil spirit, and he became so outrageous that she was compelled to resign to him all her little store. With part of the money he did purchase a pistol, powder, and ball, but with the rest he made himself completely drunk again. In this state he went home on Saturday morning with the pistol loaded, and instead of turning it against himself, presented it at the head of his wife. The poor woman instinctively raised her hand to ward off the blow. The savage fired, and the ball, after • passing through her hand, wounded her severely on the forehead. The sound of the report brought in the neighbours, who found the poor wife extended bleeding and senseless on the floor. They detained the assassin, and sent for the commissary of police, who committed him to prison. The wounded wife was carried to the hospital, where it has been ascertained that the wounds are not mortal, but that it will be necessary to amputate several of the fingers of her hand.

I IMPORTANT TO ALL THOSE WHO EXPECT TO DE RIVE BENEFIT FROM DRINKING SODA WATER. — Schweppe's Soda Water is so universally known and appreciated, not only throughout the United Kingdom, but throughout the civilised world, that any enconium on its merits might appear super fluous; but as since its original introduction, upwards of half a century since, many imitators have started up, with more or less claims to public patronage, J. S. and Co. take the liberty of reminding their friends and the public that the above Cele brated Water continues to be manufactured on the larg est scale and upon the most scientific principles at their chi e f es tablishment, 51, Berners-street, London ; and also at their three branch Manufactories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby ; and that consumers may be supplied with the genuine article at most of the respectable Chemists, Confectioners, and It a li an Warehouses in every province of the United Kingdom. The just reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de :nand for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them of apparent respectability) to practice a deception, against which Schweppe and Co. are anxious to caution the public. The deception referred to is that •f passin g off a spurious article for " Schweppe's," by selling it in Sch weppe's marked bottles. The temptation to this is, the cheapness of the infe rior water, although in most cases the consumer is charged the same. By this artifice a common water is surreptitiously palmed on the public for the genuine—the reputation of the la ter is prejudiced by the substitution of a bad article—and a certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its legitimate channel. To obviate these several evils, Schweppe and Co. have adopted the plan of placing a Red Label over the cork of each bottle, representing the Royal Appointment in the centre, and the name of their firm on each side, with out which none is genuine. Schweppe and Co. refer with pride to the fact that they constantly supply the Royal Palaces of London and Windsor, as well as the principal Nobility in the three kingdoms ; nor is the demand for their Soda Water less constant on the continent and in other parts of the world. Mereliants and Shippers in general connected with the East and West Indies and our numerous Colonies are continually transmitting orders received from their respective agents and correspondents, and highly gratifying is the testimony Schweppe and Co. are in the habit of receiving from gentle men returned tram ab,road, of the luxury afforded them by their Soda Water when met with in tropical climates, and of the high condition in which it, is generally found. The Water ordered for foreign countries is manuf ac t ure d w i t h an express reference to its destination, and it is well known that no other can equally well endure the variations of climate. Schweppe's Lemonade is an elegant preparation of mere recent intro thiction, but from its refreshing and wholesome properties is rapidly getting into extensive reputation. It is an effervescing draught of most agreeable flavour, and made of the best mate rials, without regard to cost. Physicians and medical men constantly recommend it in cases of fever, &c., nor is it less de sirable as an article of luxury. Every genuine bottle will have a yellow lable on its side, with the name and addr ess o f the firm. Schweppe and Co. are the largest importers of the German Seltzer. Water, which they receive direct from the springs, in quarts and pints, and which they offer to the public in the original packages. N.B.—Export orders for all climates executed on the shortest notice. THE LATE SCANDAL CASE AT MANCIIESTER.—The Manchester Chronicle of S a t ur d a y contains the follo wi n g para graph relating to this case :—" It w a s n ot our intention to have giren publicity to this painful affair in the columns of the Chronicle. The feelinp of the friends of both parties must hare b een sufficiently harrowed up by the circumstance, without the publi c attention being further drawn to it; but, as inaccu rate reports have found their way into the London papers, we deem it proper briefly to state the f a ct s o f th e case . O n th e night in question the servant girl appeared to have gone to bed as usua l, but b e i ng concerned in the plot, did not undress her self. Shortly after she retired her mistress went to her room to ask her some questions as to the state in which she had left the tires. The servant having satisfied her on this point, she departed, and went into her own room. In about a quarter of an hour afterwards the servant, being on the alert, hea r d h er m istress open her room d oor and walk into the bed-room of her lodger, locking that door after her. The servant then slipped out of the house, gave the necessary information, and in a few minutes four strange men (the husband not being one of the party, but remaining at a neighbour's, w aiting the issu e o f th e affair entered the house, broke open the bedroom door, dragged both parties out of the room, and mo s t cruelly beat M r. A, inflicting three wounds in his neck,. apparentl y with a sharp in strument, and otherwise abused him so severely thst hi s lif e was desrAired of. A retof t was prevalent in town last night that he died during the afternoon, but there is no truth in this rumour. We can state on the beitauthority that he is still alive; and hopes are entertained of his recovery. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ' TATTERSALL'S.—YESTSADAY. GOODWOOD STAKES.—The Knight of the WliioB Was backed in one or two quarters at Monday's quotation, and maintained it, but certainly was not in force • it was otherwise with Helpmate, who was supported zealously, and closed second favourite at 8 to 11. Welfare was also in favour, I and on these three nearly the whole of the business • turned, the St. Lawrence, Tupsley, Rhodanthe, and 1 Arnagill parties having been dead letters. The Good wood Cup excited considerable interest, and exhibited two or three changes. The Squire, Middleham, and Sleight of-Hand, were backed occasionally in the early part of the af ternoon, but were not in much request after the first hour. Marshal Soult opened with a declining appearance, but derived so much assistance towards evening, that after a good deal of money had been laid, got on at 13 to 1, he sprung three points, and left second favourite. Charles the Twelfth rose from 20 to 11 to 1 upon a small outlay, holding the third place in the betting when our prices were made up. Nothing was said about Monceda or St. Law rence that will enable us to make a quotation, and the odds stated against Priam must be received with caution ; he had no friend present. The St. Leger is only worthy of notice as showing an extraordinary decline in Meteor; 40 to'l was laid on the strength of his being lame, yet it was mentioned in the course of the day that he had galloped at Epsom, and would accompany Scott's horses to Goodwood.

NEW CITY OF LONDON RACES.—Tnuesnay. A showery morning was succeeded by so fine an afternoon that crowds flocked to the Course from all parts of the metro polis, and the attendance before the first race was over was much larger than on Wednesday. The racing went off con spirito ; indeed, so excellent was the sport on both days, arid so satis factory the arrangements, that we have no doubt the experiment will be repeated before the close of the season. Before we give the customary return it is but fair to state that a body of 50 of the P division of the police, under Superintendent M‘Lean and Inspectors Campbell, Bass, and Haynes, were of great service in keeping order on the course.

PETERHEAD, JULY 14.—Our boats, both from the north and south, have been dropping in since Monday, but it will take all the week before they arrive. We expect the number (including Bodham and Burnhaven) will be about 450. On Tuesday evening and last night, about seventy boats went out, and found that fish was on the coast •, three boats, this morning, had twelve crans each, and from that quantity down to a cran—many had none. A great number of the boats will be out to-night. STONEHAVEN: —The fishing commenced here on Tuesday night, when upwards of twenty boats went to sea, and all of them returned with some fish. On Wednesday night, about forty boats went out, and re turned all of them with fish—a rare occurrence so early in the season, as the fishermen scarcely expect any for the first ten days. About sixty boats will be employed at the fishing here this season. The fishing commenced in the Moray Frith on Mon day night last. Since then several boats belonging to Burghead, Lossiemouth, and Hopeman have been at sea nightly ; but, as yet, the takes have been very small. The boats at Lossiemouth, on Thursday morning, had in all from thirty to forty crans. The number of boats em ployed at Burghead amounts to fifty-four ; at Lossie mouth, twenty-five ; and at Hopeman, four. The her rings are large, and of good quality. BERWICK-UPON-TWEED.—The herring fishing has already begun. One boat, the Brothers, went out on Wednesday night, and got about a hundred herrings of most excellent quality, which were bought by Mr. James Cowe. On Thursday night two boats went out ; the first had two crans—that is, about 1,400 or 1,500 her rings —and, should the weather still continue good, we believe a general fishing will be the result next week. ST. BOSWELL'S FAIR. This great annual market was held on St. Boswell's Green on Monday, the 18th, when fully more than the usual number of lambs was brought forward. They were in good condition, being in no respect inferior to those exhibited in former years. Although the exposers of this kind of stock had made up their minds to sell at a lower rate than in former years, yet the purchasers being determined to buy at very low prices, the sales, instead of commencing as usual at six o'clock lag ged till about eight, and, even at that late hour, few or none were effected. When th e se ll ers saw at there were few purchasers and little demand, they were forced to give in and sell at reduced rates. The prices averaged from 15s. to 19s. a-head. These may be stated as among the top lots of their respective kinds in the market. Many others were sold at inferior prices ; but, after all, it was computed that about one-third of the lambs ori ginally brought forward left the market unsold. There were few old sheep exposed, and those which were in condition for the butcher, may be rated at about 54d. per lb. Rough hogs were so very inferior, that we forbear mentioning prices. There was very little demand for that description of stock. There was an ordinary number of wool-merchants, and although they were disposed to buy, it was only at a reduction on last year's prices. The best parcels of half-bred and Cheviot hog wool sold at from 245. to 255. per s ton e o f 24 lbs. Cheviot white and half-bred ewe do., with a small proportion of hog fleeces, from 20s. to 225, do. laid Cheviot, 135., and 14s. do. blackfaced ; white from lls. to 13s. do. Blackfaced laid from Bs. to 9s. do. In a market of great extent prices of everything exposed do occur both above and below quotations. The show of cattle was fully more than an average of that of former years. Nevertheless, of those fit for the butcher, there was but a very limited number, and they cannot be rated at less than 6s. 9d. and 7s. per imperial stone. Grazing cattle were in less demand than we have seen ; ant consequently, they could be bought upon easier terms than in the neighbou r i ng markets during the summer.—Scotsman. The carriage in which the Duke of Orleans was riding on the day of the accident, was, says the Com merce, a sort of cabriolet on four wheels drawn by two horses, known by the name of milord. It is larger and deeper than a common cabriolet, and it is without a seat in front, as a postilion rides one of the horses. There are no doors to those vehicles, but simply an apron which was rolled up, on the occasion we speak of. The hood was down, so that the Prince could suddenly st an d up erect, without striking his head, as was generally supposed. The springs are exceedingly flexible, so that the body of the vehicle moves eon _ siderably at the slightest motion, which explains the fact of the Prince falling from a jolt when riving to speak to the postilion. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 22, 1842. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, July 21. Their Lordships met at the usual hour. In the absence of the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of SHAFTESBURY took his seat on the woolsack. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS. A message from the Commons brought up the Controverted Elections Amendment Bill, the Wide Streets (Dublin) Bill, the Perth Prisons Bill, the Railways' Act Amendment Bill, and a few private Bills, which were severally read a first time. THE LUNACY BILL. This Bill was read a third time, and passed. MINES AND COLLIERIES BILL. The fitike of SUTHERLAND presented a petition from Huddersfield, against the employment of females and young children in mines. His own opinion on this subject was, that the youth employed in mines should only work half time, while the remainder should be devoted to instruction and healthful recreation. those Bills, It could scarcely be expected that children would attend a night school after ten hours' hard labour in a mine. FISHERIES TREATY ACT CONTINUANCE BILL. This Bill went through Committee. SLAVE TRADE TREATIES ACT CONTI NUANCE BILL. This Bill also went through Committee. The District Courts and Prisons Bill, the Militia Ballot Suspension Bill, and the Turnpike Acts Con tinuance Bill likewise passed through Committee. THE MILITARY SAVINGS BANK BILL. This Bill was read a second time, and their Lord ships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, July 21. The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'Clock. Sir R. 11. INGLIS presented a petition from th►e Pro testant Operative Association of the Tower Hamlets, against the grant to Maynooth College. Mr. VILLIERS presented .three petitions from Dele gates assembled from different parts of the country, pray ing for the immediate and total repeal of the Corn-laws. Mr. HAWES presented a petition from Putney, pray ing that the bridges in London might be thrown open free of toll. The SPEAKER informed the House that the Right Hon. Sir G. Grey Mr. Wilson Patten, and Sir William M. Somerville, had resigned their offices as Members of the General Committee of Electi3ns, and that it was his duty to appoint Members in their room. • Mr. ALDHAM presented a petition from the West Riding of Yorkshire, against the Bastardy and Appren tices clauses of the New Poor-law Amendment Bill. BURYING IN TOWNS. Mr. MACKINNON gave notice that he would, on the 4th of August, move for leave to bring in a Bill to prevent buriaals within the precincts of towns.—(Hear.) POOR-LAWS. Mr. S. CRAWFORD gave notice that, on the third reading of the Poor-law Bill, he would move as an amendment that the Bill be read that day three months. Sir T. 1). ACKLAND gave notice that he would move a clause in the 1'oor•law Amendment Bill, which would enable the local guardians to provide for the education of.poor persons. Sir G. CLARKE gave notice that he would move for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the 2d and 3d of Vic toria, called the Slave-trade Suppression Act. STADE DUTIES. Sir R. PEEL said, that seeing the Hon. Member fur Gateshead had a motion on the paper relative to the Stade Duties, he wished to inform him that it would be out of his (Sir. P. Peel's) power to enter into any discussion upon it. Negotiations were pending e.n the subject, and he could not, without prejudice to the public, go into any statement. He therefore hoped the Hon. Gentleman would not press his motion in the present state of the negotiations, which he had every reason to believe would be brought to a final close. Mr. HUTT was unwilling to bring forward any motion that would lead to a discussion which would in terfere with the public interests ; but it was because he understood the negotiations which were carrying on were conducted on a basis which, so far as he could ascertain, was likely to be prejudicial to' the interests and honour of the country, he had taken the opportunity of bring ing the Matter under the consideration of that House. He was desirous, therefore, that some expression on the part of the House should be given, and he did not think it would be consistent with his duty to withdraw the motion. Sir R. PEEL only trusted that the House would draw no conclusion from the reserve he should maintain on the subject.—(llear, hear.) Mr. LAMBTON hoped the Hon. Gentlemen would withdraw his motion. Mr. HUTT said, that he had no acrimonious or fac- tious motives in bringing the. subject forward. It had been entrusted to his hands, and he believed the nego tiations were conducted on such a basis as to be injurious to the mercantile interests of the country. Mr. HUME hoped, after what had fallen from the Right Hon. Baronet, that the Hon. Gentleman would not proceed with his motion. Lord PALMERSTON said, that as the Right Hon. Baronet had stated that it would not be consistent with his duty to enter upon any statement upon that subject, in consequence of the negotiations that were pending, perhaps it would not be advisable to press that motion. But on the other hand, as the matter was entrusted to his Hon. Friend, and as he stated that he had every reason to believe that in the negotiations that were going on the present Government had abandoned claims which he believed they . ought not to do; and as it was a ques tion of great interest to the commercial classes of the country, it was advisable that 'the subject should be discussed before the negotiations were concluded. If his Hon. Friend waited until the negotiations were con cluded, he would then be too late. Sir ROBERT PEEL said that he was precluded from saying one word on the subject. Of course the Hon. Member could exercise his own discretion whether he would bring on the, motion or not; all he wished was, that the House would not miscontrue his silence. Mr. HUTT—Then perhaps the Right Hon. ,Baronet would *say whether it was a fact that, on the present Secretary for Foreign Affairs, succeeding his Noble Friend (Lord Palmerston), he signified to the Hano verian Minister his (Lord Aberdeen's) determination to adhere to the policy of his predecessors ? Sir R. PEEL declined to make any communication whatever on the subject. Mr. HUTT said he certainly understood that the No ble Lord, the present Secretai y for Foreign Affairs, had stated his determination to follow the policy of his pre decessors ; but the concessions which were since made were at variance with the views of his Noble Friend, and inconsistent wits the rights and interests of this country. He therefore thOught that the House should express some opinion on the subject before it was too late. He understood that the question of the Stade tolls were to be settled on the basis of a compromise, involving large concession on the part of this country. If that was the fact, he (Mr. Hutt) thought it right to protest against any such proceeding. If any concession was made, it was opposed to the views not only of his Noble _Friend on the subject, but of every statesman in Europe; and if her Majesty's Government had concluded any treaty with Hanover, setting aside the Swedish treaty, they had pursued a oourse inconsistent with their duty, and one against which he most strongly protested. Mr. C. BERKELEY said that the Hon. Member for Bath had, on Tuesday, put a question to the Right Hon. Baro net the Secretary of State for the Home Department, re specting a person who had been improperly committed to Cheltenham gaol, to which the Right Hon. Gentleman replied that serious irregularities had occurred, and he (Sir J. Graham) had expressed his opinion to that effect, but he trusted that the Hon.. and Learned Member for Bath, would not press for the correspondence. The Right Hon. Baronet must be aware that, under the provisions of the Constabulary Force Act, the Magistrates had no . right to interfere with Chief Constables appointed under that Act. The Magistrates were desirous of having their characters cleared, and he wished to ask the Right Hon. Baronet if he had any objection-to produce the correspondence which had taken place on the subject, and to have it printed - ? . _ Sir JAMES' GRAHAM was sorry any misappre hension shold have occurred in consequence of what had fallea from him (Sir J. Graham). The Honourable Gentleman had certainly quoted his (Sir James Gra ham's) expressions correctly. He had certainly said that irregularities had been committed, but he had not said that those irregularities had been committed by the Magistrates. As the production of the correspondence might prejudice the ends of justice he must refuse to produce it for the present. RAJA OF SATTARA. Mr. HUME had intended in moving fir the papers re lating to the deposition of the late Raja. of Sattara, to have gone at large into the subject, but, at this advanced period of the session, he would abstain from doing so, and content himself with moving for the papers, to the production of which he understood no opposition • would be offered. He would, however, next session go into the whole ques tion of the deposition of the late Raja of Sattara. He would therefore move for copies of the despatches from the Bombay Government, dated the 31 s t day of October, 1841, and subsequent dates, respecting the affairs of Sattara, with the inclosures therein referred to, as laid before the Court of Proprietors at the East India House, on the 13th day of May, 1842 ; also, a copy of a letter from General Lodwick, C. 8., and late Resident at Setters, dated the 13th day of June, 1842, to the Court of Directors of the East India Company, respecting the proceedings at Sattara. as laid before the Court of Proprietors at the East India House ; also, copies of all letters addressed to or from the deposed Raja of Sattara, that have been intercepted by the Bombay Government, by its Officers, and by the Resident at Sattara ; with copies of the despatches transmitting the same to the Governor-General of India, and to the Court of Direc tors ; also, copies of the orders issued, and any ob servations made by the Governor-General, and by the Court of Directors thereon.—Agreed to. INDIAN FINANCE—AFGHAN WAR. Mr. HUME had a notice on the paper for the pro duction of the correspondence between the Board of Di rectors of the East India Company and the Government on the subject of Indian finance, in reference to the expenses of the Chinese and Affghan wars. The East India Company thought that as the Affgh . an war had been undertaken for British purposes, the nation ought to bear the expense of it; and he believed the Directors had ad dressed the Government on the subject. The Right Hon. Baronet, tor:, had, in bringing forward his Budget, alluded to the subject of Indian finance, and therefore it was of importance that the House should be in ponessiOn of int4ruption (,11 the subj( , ct. Tic (Mr. IL) how , ver, understood from the Board of Control that the corres pondence wa.a still going on,vaid that it wouldprejudice the public service if it were produced at present. Under these circumstances he would withdraw his motion. Sir R. PEEL, in allusion to what had fallen from the Hon. Gentleman relative to (Sir R. Peel's) speech on bringing forward the Budgs, begged to observe that although on that occasion h had said that the state of Indian finance was additional reason for an effort being made to maintain public credit, yet he had by no means admitted that the East India Government had any claim upon the English Treasury on account of the expenses of the Affghaii war. Mr. HUME did not mean to say there was a claim, but the Court of Directors thought they had one. LAW REFORM. - Mr. PARKER wished to know whether it was the --------__ _ intention of the Government to proceed with the Law Bills that had lately been introduced into the other House of Parliament? The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that it certainly was the intention of the Government to proceed with An HON. MEMBER wished to know whether it was the intention of the Government to postpone the Parish Constables Bill till another session? - Sir JAMES GRAHAM said it was the intention of the Government to persevere with that Bill. CASE OF MRS. FORBES. Captain PECIIELL rose to call the attention of the House to the petition of Mrs. Charlotte Forbes, pre sented on the sth of July last. Mrs. Forbes was the wife of Lieutenant Forbes, now a lunatic in Haslar Hospital. It appeared that a portion of the lunatic's pay had been stopped for the purpose of defraying his expenses in the Hospital. The peti tioner complained that this was contrary to the general usage in the service, and prayed that the pay which had thus been stopped might be paid over to her. The Hon. and Gallant Gentleman concluded by moving for a return of the number of Officers on half-pay in the Lunatic . Asylum at Haslar, the deductions from their half-pay made fir their maintenance there, and the correspondence between the Government and the relatives of such Offi.;ers. Sir G. COCKBURN said it was a matter of indul gence that Lieut. Forbes was received •at all into the Asylum. He was received in consequence of the applica tions of his friends, who were aware of the existence of the regulations. Sir C. NAPIER said, that as it appeared that the Go vernment bad taken too much in the first instance for the maintenance of this officer in' Haslar Hospital, and had subsequently reduced the amount deducted, he thought that the Government was bound to refund the money which had been so improperly de ducted ; and he thought that a similar refunding ought to take place in every instance in which money had been deducted unjustly. Mr. HUME thought it was a pity such a case should have been permitted to be brought forward. He thought as a matter of justice, and of humanity, that the money ought to be refunded to Mrs. Forbes. Great credit was due to the Government for providing for lunatic officers in Haslar Hospital, but still the families of officers ought not to be deprived- of their rights. As a matter of justice they were entitled to the half-pay . after the bare maintenance of the indi vidual, which it appeared amounted to Is. 6d., a day should have been deducted. Mr. S. HERBERT said that in this case they could not allow their feelings to interfere with the rules and regulations which had been made. That course had been followed in the present case, and he saw no reason, why they should be departed from in the present instance. He must, therefore, oppose the present motion. Captain PECHELL replied.. Tbe motion was then agreed to. SLAVE TRADE. Captain PECHELL deferred the motion of which he had given notice, to call the attention of the House to the operation of the Act, 2d and 3d Vic., c. 73, for the sup pression of the slave trade till this day week (Thursday). DISTRESS OF THE COUNTRY. Mr. T. DITh COMBL said that, iu rising to submit the motion to' the House, of which he had given notice, he wished to explain, in the first place, the reason why his notice appeared in a different form to that which he originally gave. The original notice that he gave was to this effect, to limit the supplies to a period of three months. The object of that notice of motion was, if possible, to compel her Majesty's Ministers to re-assemble that House at the end of October next, in the event of no decisive amelioration taking place in the condition of the people, or, at all events, their wants being relieved. When going into supply, the Right Hon. Baronet wished him (Mr. T. Duncombe) to submit his motion on a dif ferent occasion, and in a different form. In compliance with the wish of the Right Hon. Baronet, he had framed his motion in the form in which it now appeared. He should say, however, that he owed no thanks to her Majesty's Ministers for having an opportunity of bring ing the subject under the consideration of the House that evening. —(Hear, hear.) The Right Hon Baronet, the Member for Kent, and four other Members of his party, were the only gentlemen on that (the Ministerial) side of the House, who were pre sent at four o'clock, although the question which he had to bring forward related to the public dis tress. He should say that the charge of delaying the public business brought against his side of the House was most unfounded, and that if there was any error on their part, it was an error on the side of forbearance What he would ask were the opinions of the people out of doors, of the people' of Liverpool, of Manchester, of Paisley, of Coventry, and other large towns, relative to the course which it was now the duty of their representa tives to pursue. It was the wish of the inhabitants of these towns that their representatives should delay the course of the Government as much as possible, until the state of the country had been fully considered. He was justified, therefore in saying that if there Was any error on the part of the Members on his side, it was an error on the side of forbearance. He should observe that the party now in power had of fered tenfold greater opposition to the proceedings of the late Ministry than they had .themselves experienced since their accession to office —(Hear, hear, hear.) How many a factious motion. he would ask, had been brought for Ward by the Opposition in preceding sessions, and discussed night after night ? It could not be forgotten that they brought forward a mo tion against the proposal of the late Government, rela tive to sugar, which had lasted eight nights ; and during that discussion the steadfast advocates of negro 'slavery had put themselves forward as the opponents of the slave trade. There had also been a vote of want of confidence brought forward by the Right Hon. Baronet the Member for Tamworth, with which the House had been occupied for five nights, and yet great complaints had been made by the present Ministers that the mo tion of his Hon. Friend, the Member for Greenock, had been in discussion for three nights, although that mo tion was a national motion—a motion to consider the dis tress of the people.—(Hear.) In bringing on the present motion, it was not his intention to enter into any heart rending details as to the distressed condition of the coun try ; neither would he discuss that question of aie Corn laws, which had been already so frequently and so ably discussed during the present session. His chief object was to warn that House, to warn her Majesty's Govern ment, and, more particularly, to warn country gentle men, Members of that House; of the danger to which they and their properties were at the present moment exposed. He believed that if there were an evil greater than another, in the present state of the country, it ‘A as the apathy of that House as to the sufferings of the people. The social system was on the point of dissolu tion—the peace and property of the country were not worth twenty hours' purchase—(Hear. hear) — and yet that House was about to separate without taking any measures for the relief of the distress. At the opening Uf Parliament they were told in the Queen's speech that the'sufferings of the people were great, and that their patience was exemplary. Those sufferings were greatly on the increase, and what had Parliament done to alleviate them ? His Hon. Friend, the Member for Greenock, brought forward a motion on the subject, and the Ministers quibbled and special-pleaded upon the terms of the. motion; and when he (Mr. Wallace) pro posed to alter the wording to suit their taste, they would make no advance to meet him. His Hon. Friend, the Member for Wolverhampton, brought forward the question of the Corn-laws, and was defeated by a large majority. What had the Government done? Absolutely nothing.—(Hear.) Why, when they were told last year of the distress that then existed, and of the certainty . that it would increase, the Chancellor of the Exchequer said that the best remedy was to leave things as they were.—(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) The whole of the distress was owing to the party to which the Right Hon. Baronet opposite belonged the party called Tories—(Hear, and a laugh)—and if they had allowed the late Government to adopt liberal measures, a great deal of the present distress would have been prevented. But now, when the representatives of the manufacturing districts returned to their homes, and were surrounded by the victims of the Right Hon. Baronet's legislation, what consolation, what hopes, could they give ? (Hear, hear.) He knew well that the agricultural Members had a good answer to give their constituents when they went back to them. They would say that they had passed the Corn Bill, which, as the Hon. Member for Berkshire told his constituents, it would be a delusion .to suppose would diminish the protec tion to the agricultural interest, but would, on the con trary, perpetuate that injustice and extortion. They would go back, and they might, perhaps, be thanked by their constituents for their services, because they had done nothing to alleviate the distress of the people. He wanted to know from each of the Cabinet Ministers what was the remedy they proposed ? He wondered whether the Hon. Member for Kent's remedy was the Poor-law which he vilified so much last year. What was the remedy of the Secretary of State for the Home Department ? Was it in the rural police, or would he call out the yeomanry, or did he rely upon a posse of Magistrates ? He did not see the Secretary of War his place ; what would his remedy be ? Would he silence .the people at the point of the bayonet, and drown their cries in the roar of artillery ? The Chan cellor of the Exchequer would, in all probability, leave things alone. They knew what were the remedies which had been proposed by the First Lord of the Treasury. He had given them his trumpery Corn Bill, the Income tax, and the Taliff. What was the consequence of the Income-tax ? Already was the country rife with com plaints against the Commissioners, who were going about like locusts. The filthy creatures were at their dirty work. The Tariff did nut cheapen the articles of great consumption. Sugar and timber were left untouched. The Member for the University of Oxford had been promised Church Extension as a remedy for the starvation of the people. He wished the demands of the people might be acceded to with equal readiness. An early and abund ant harvest was looked forward to, as if that would per manently relieve the distress of-the people. He supposed, ' too, they should have another Queen's Speech again shortly, praising again the measures that had been passed, and the tribute of the Right Hon. Baronet to the forti tude of the pk?ople might be renewed. But he heiievi , d the t the fortitude and peaceable demarn,ur of tin: people could not be attributed altogether to their disposition, but to the hope that somethiug effectual would be done PARLIAMENTARY DIVISIONS.

Plumptre, J. P. Bateson, Robert Le PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—Mr. Thomas Duncombe has given no tic of a motion which stands for discussion in the House of Commons to-day, and will of course be op posed by the Government, though the facts it em bodies cannot be denied, and the object sought to he obtained is an extremely proper one. Resign ing all hope that the Ministers will listen to the voice of the country, which at numerous meet ings held in every part of the kingdom has urged the necessity of considering the public distress before the separation of Parliament, Mr. Duncombe asks the House of Commons "to represent to her Majesty an anxious hope that if, after the termination of the present session, no decisive improvement should take place in the condition of her Majesty's suffering and loyal subjects, her Majesty may be pleased again to call Parliament together at an early period." There is something so reasonable in this request, that it seems difficult to anticipate on what grounds it can be resisted. Should it be acceded to, there will be at least a ray of hope reserved for those who are suffering from distress, and who look to the Legislature for the only means of remedy. Sir Robert Peel has pro mised that the operation of the new tariff will pro duce a beneficial influence, and afford better subsist ence to the mass of the people than they have been lately able to procure. What then can be more reason able than, in the event of the hopes he has held out not being realised, Parliament should be called together to substitute some other means of relief for those which have been offered by the present Minister ? If the tariff should answer the end proposed, Mr. Dun combe's motion need not be acted on ; but if the dis tress continues to increase—or even should it not sensibly diminish—the fact of the Honourable Mem ber's resolution havingbeen carried may be productive of the best results on the feelings of the people, who will not be under the impression that nothing can be done for them until the ordinary period for assem bling the Parliament. STANDARD.—There is a remarkable circum stance connected, with the Illarnooth establishment that is seldom kept in sight. The establishment is practically condemned by Roman Catholics, as unequi vocally as it is condemned in words by Protestants. The establishment is now nearly fifty years old; and though, during its lifetime, the Ttoman Catholics have doubled in number, and more than , doubled in wealth—though they have collected immense sums for political objects, paying Mr. O'Connell 20,0001. a-year, and their priests, according to the calculation of Mr. Massie, a Liberal Dissenter, a milli on and a half a year, they have not added one penny to the funds of Maynooth. We are told that, but for Maynooth, the Romish clergy would be with out education ; but how is this possible, when a con tribution of no more than five per cent. from the in comes of the priesthood, to say nothing of the sums expended for political objects, would support a much larger establishment? Again, it is said that the grant is insufficient How, again, can this be, when, as we see, such a contribution as we have spoken of would much more than double the resources of the establish ment? The phenomenon is one which can be ex plained only upon the ground that the majority of Irish Roman Catholics dislike the Maynooth establishment; or, upon the other ground, that the Romish bishops prefer to take a comparatively small grant from the State to admitting the inferior clergy and laity to any influence in managing the institution. Both causes we believe operate to some extent, but either of them is quite sufficient to cause the Legis lature to pause before contributing any more money without inquiry. As to the system of instruction pursued at Maynooth, we have great reluctance in touching upon it. The political instruction is seen in its effects, because politics are necessarily striking. Its moral effects are not so manifest, because the vices of the very poor and remote are necessarily obscure. Lord Eliot has, it appears, been deluded into the vulgar belief upon this latter point. The Irish peasantry are not one jot more mmoral than the peasantry of other Roman Catholic countries, by no means so moral as the peasantry of the least advanced Protestant countries. THE NEW COINAGE.—It being publicly known that the Bank of England was issuing the new silver coinage, the demand at the Bullion-office on F r id a y an d Saturday -by tradespeople was greater than has been known for many years, which proves the great scarcity there is throughout the metropolis of small coinage. In consequence of the dividends having been in course of payment since the 7th inst., the run upon the Bank for silver has been very great, and notwithstanding that upwards of 300,000/. has been struck at the Royal Mint of half-crowns, shillings, and six pence', since the issuing of the Royal proclamation of the 3d of June on the light gold coinage, there is yet a very short supply of silver currency, as a very considerable quantity has been sent into the country to the branch banks in the manu facturing and agricultural districts, where it is greatly re quires] at the present moment as the harvest approaches. The employee, at the Mint are daily at work in providing the Bank as quickly as'they can with silver specie, the quantity of new sovereigns and half-sovereigns being sufficient for the public demand. A very large number of guineas, of the reigns of Geo. 1., 11., 111., and other perfect coins that had not been circu lated for above a century and a half, have found their way into the Bank since the light gold panic -from various parts of the United Kingdom. The demand for silver for the continent and India has greatly decreased the stock of bullion at the Mint, as the exports during the last m on th f ar excee d th ose o f former years. 'The amounts paid by Government to the East India Company, on account of the warin Chinaand Affghanistan, have had a tendency to create a scarcity both of gold and silver. It appears from an official return that the following sums have been paid since the last two years : —lB4l, October 27,150,0001. ; 1841, July 2, 100,000/. ; 1842, February 9, 23,442—t0ta1, 573,142/. ; besides the remittance of June last upwards of 50,000/._ _ _ „,," 11 .tit Manchester, in many of the t ra d esmen ' s w i n d ows placards are placed, announcing. ” No assessed taxes, nor Income-tax paid here." Crowds of , operatives and their families from Stockport and other towns, flock a distance of seven miles to obtain relief, in the shape of soup and food, at Manchester. A few days ago, says a letter from Valenciennes, the water burst into the coal-thine a Gtt - frr,, at Chateii -1 eau. There were 23 miners in the pit at the time, three of whom were drowned.
