PORTSMOUTH, THURSDAY.—The Tay, one of the West India mail steamers, has been in dock here to undergo some trifling repairs to her hull. She went out cf dock again yes terday, and will proceed in the course of the day to South ampton. She was placed in the dock which has recently been vacated by the Winchester frigate, and which is just sufficiently capacious to contain her. It is seldom that a met chant vessel is docked here, and only under very peculiar circumstances. Had it not been for the accommodation afforded by the Lords of the Admiralty in this instance, it would have been necessary to have taken her round to the river to have had her over. hauled, and her damages repaired before she could again pro ceed to the West Indies. From her having been docked here, she has saved all the time that would have been lost in her voyage to and from the Thames, and will be back again at. Southampton, and ready for sea nearly as soon as she could have reached the river. The Speedy cutter, Lieutenant-Commander G. Beaufoy, arrived on Monday, from Chatham and Sheerness, with super numerary seamen and volunteers. It is expected that she will leave in the course•of the day, and take with her a number of volunteers for the Cleopatra and Talbot, which have recently been paid off and recommissioned. 1 .The Resistance troop-ship, Commander G. E. Patey, wil proceeed to sea in a day or two. There is now very little doubt that it is the St. Helena Regiment that will embark in her. This Regiment, which is now complete, and lying at Parkhurst barracks, Isle of Wight, was inspected on '1 eesday by the Commander-in Chief of the District, Alajor-General Sir Hercules Pakenham, and is quite ready for embarkation. The General expre,sed much gratification at witnessing the efficient state of the Regiment, which, from its being a newly. raced one, was highly credible to the officers and men. The Volcano steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander C. J. Featherstone, has been refitting and painting here. There have been no arrivals of the homeward-bound weasels which have been so long expected, the wind having veered vund to the eastward. The only arrival here is that of the Hindostan outward-bound E tat Indiaman, which came from the eastward on Tuesday in suing. ;11/IPS AT SPITWEAD —The Resistance troop-ship and Hin dostan East Indianian.

An accident occurred on Thursday at Ivry, in a quarry called the Deux-Moulins, which caused the death of tour me►, and inflicted serious injury on four others. The wall of the sLaft through which the stones are brought to the surface gave way, and caused a rapid motion of counter-rotation to the wheel, which broke in pieces. The men engaged in working it were thrown thirty paces off, and wounded, whilst the load falling on those below killed them instantaneously. o TTIS 11 MIT S I( On MONDAY EVENING, MAY 2, at the i MUSIC HALL, STORE-STREET, WILSON 7.•i)1 glce the lowing Songs in his F N I ERTAINIVIENT : " My Mn Fireside "—'• I. , aw ye ray W,e Thiiig?"—" Auld Robin * Gray "—" The Laird o' Cockri '—" Lizzie Lind sa y " Sots wha has wi' Wallace bled' —" Get up and bar the Door," Part II.—" Jock o' Hazeldean "—" My Boy Tammy"— " Pibroch o' Donuil Dhu "—" Come under my Plaidie " " There's nae Luck aboot the House "—" Woo'd and Married and a'."

Irish disturbances and Tory Government appear to be inseparable. Lord DE GREY MILS scarcely seated in his Vice-regal Chair, when the old animosity of Orangemen against Catholics displayed itself in all its hateful rancour ; the most opprobrious epithets were used almost in the hearing of his Excellency, and but a faint attempt was made by the Ex ecutive to convince the offended party that the New Government was resolved to adininister equal justice to all classes of the Irish people. What has been the result? Insolence on one hand, and distrust of the law on the other, with every appearance of disturbances which when suffered to reach a' certain height, can be put down only by an armed force. In the county of Tipperary, even Tory Journals - admit that the people are in a more discontented and dangerous condition than during the Government of Lord NORMANDY, black as they were wont - to picture his Administration. A Coercion Act they say is indispensably necessary, and the Lord Lieutenant of the County is called upon to convene the Magistracy. and appeal to the Government for protection to life and property, "for which at pre sent there is no security," This is certainly a dismal description of the state of the country, occurring too within a few weeks after Lord DE GREY boasted of the tranvillity produced by the vigorous admininistration of the laws. The lame, which under Vie late Lord Lieutenant and his predecessor were found snffi ciently strong, even with all the indiscriminate gaol deliveries and wicked leniency of Lord NOR MANDY, are now helpless, and the Irish must, according to the good old Tory practice, be put down by coercion Bills, Insurrection Acts, and al l that hateful, unconstitutional machinery which distin guished the worst periods of the CASTLEREAGII Govern ment. For the peace of the country, we confidently an ticipate that Sir ROBERT PEEL will discountenance any such dangerous experiment. Why have recourse to brute force, when past experience proves that the Irish are much more easily governed by mild treatment and equal laws, than by hosts of .policemen and standing ar mies ? This is not a time to begin a furious crusade against seven millions of Catholics to gratify the wicked passions of Orangemen. The nightly squabbles of the House of Commons about the business of Election Committees, must con vince every man of any reflection, who, troubles his head about the matter, that tha time has arrived when pullic convenience demands the establishment of a fixed and regular tribunal for deciding upon all contested elections. It is clear that the Hot;Se of Commons enjoys privileges which it cannot enforce, and which, if it could, would not meet the objections which are constantly made to modes of proceeding so clumsy, so ill-defined, and so entirely under the control of individual prejudice, caprice, or party feeling. As the House of Commons is not a judi cial tribunal, it can merely commit to prison fur contempt of its authority— an offence • more likely to give popu larity than to excite any feeling of public indignation ' against the offender. Now it is essential that the tri bunal trying contested elections should possess all the judicial functions of a Criminal Law Court, and that its authority should be entirely independent of the House. What are called the privileges of the two Houses of Parliament were valuable in feudal times, when the ad ministration of justice was regulated by the pleasure of the Court. But as civilisation advances, law rightly oc cupies the place of privilege, In fact, privileges become abstirdities, unless defined and protCcted by laws. It is unnecessary to remind the House of Commons that no tribunal in Great Britain is regarded with more universal contempt than an Election Committee. As soon as the political complexion of the majority of such Committee isknown, there is not a door-keeper or porter about the Home who cannot tell with certainty whether the Member petitioned agv.inst will, or will not, be un seated. It becomes a mere party contest. The Judicia - forms observed are intended only to blind the public to the farce going on within doors. The rtliection of Mr. WALLACE'S motion for leave to bring in a „Nil to reduce the number of the Judges of the Court of Session in Scotland, dues not surprise us. The Roust. of Commons is filled with lawyers, and every lawyer fit the House of Commons looks for. ward to a Judgeship. The more scats there aro on the Judicial Bench, the Alamo chances there are of speedy preferment. Judgeships, moreover, are a source of patronage to the Government, +4,1 every Mi nister finds in patronage a security for contimmag e in office. Still the labours of Mr. WALLACE will not be unproductive of immense advantages, Already exten sive reforms have taken place in the administration of the law in Scotland in consequence of the publicity which he gave to the abuses existing in the several law Courts; others will follow, and thus the fear of exposure will operate beneficially upon the judicial bench of Scotland. Mr. WALLACE proved, by a reference to the Parliamen tary documents that . the Court of Session does not sit more, on an average, than two hours daily for about six months in the year, and that of that two hours one third is occupied in disposing of orders and ora tions of no importance. Then the form of plead ing from written papers, instead of viva aver, imposes immense labour upon the advocates, and impedes every motion of the wheels of juStice. But these evils, though deep-rooted, are not immovable. Mr. WALLACE has only to persevere in his exertions to reform the admi nibtration of the law in Scotland, to be sure of -ultimate success.

C. 11 1 7, QUARTER TO THREE. A slight re-action has occurred in the English market, owing to some large sales having been made by the Chancery broker. Although the various stocks are reported " heavy," still the alteration in prices is extremely small, which, taking the great rise of yesterday into consideration, may be viewed as indicative of firmness. Consols are marked 92/ to 93 for Money, and 93 to 93. for the Account ; New Three-and-a-Half per Cents., 101 to 101 A ; Reduced Three-and-a- Half per Cents., 100 to ; Bank Stock, 1674 to 168; India Stock, 246 to 248; tae Bonds; 20 to 22 ; Exchequer Bills, 38 to 40, premium. In Foreign Securities the only business has been in Dutch, the price of wheat is 53k 53 1 4 for the Three, and 101 k for the Five per Cent. Stock. Scarcely any thing doing in Shares, and the only alteration is in Brighton, which appear to be rapidly improving in value, and in public estimation, the price now being 37k; South Western, 63 63k; Northern and Eastern, 434; Birmingham Quarter Shares, 37k ; Cheltenham and Great Western, 18k k ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 54 55. Although this is settling day in the bonds of the insolvent States, there is only one 'quotation to each of the following, which is CoLnabian, 26i; Portuguese Five per Cents., 38k ; the Three per Cents. a 23; Spanish Actives, 24k ; the Three per Cents., 24k. The unprecedented circumstance of the quantity of West India Sugar on show in theCelonial Market, not exceedingso hhds., was noticed yesterday. If the wind continued wive, se it may be ex pected that the weekly return of the stock on hand, will on Tuesday exhibit but a few hogsheads, perhaps not more than four hundred, should the deliveries have been equal to what they were in the last week. It is satisfaCtory to be able to add that this causes no alarm, neither have prices been affected in consequence, the quantity of Mauritius and Bengal being suffi cient for the immediate wants of the trade. The consumption of the latter desci iption has wonderfully increased since the equalization of the duty, having been 270,000 cwt. in 1837, and upwards of 1,000,000 in 1841-s-a strong argument in favour of low rates improving the demand. Private accounts from Jama'ca, and some other of the West Indian colonies, state that the condition of the negroes is im proving, and that an increased willingness to work has been manifested on those estates, where kindness was shown them before, and after emancipation. It would appear from these, that the gitomy forebodings of the cultivation of sugar iu the co!onies ceasing, are in 'reality without foundation, and this opinion is strengthened by a despatch lately received from Sir C. Metcalfe on the subject. He writes , f with respect to the labouring population, formerly slaves, but now perfectly free and more independent than the same plass in other free countries, 1 venture to say that in no country in the world can the labouring population be more abundantly provided with the necessaries of life, more at their ease, or more secure from oppression than in Jamaica."

The Morning Herald predicts, as will be seen by the lowing passage, that the Income-tax will not be abandoned a, the endof three years, but that, on the contrary, the per-tentage on income will very shortly be raised :—" We do not believe that, at the termination of the three years for which the Income tax is ebout to be imposed, it will be abandoned. 111t.ny rea suns beget this scepticism ; there is, at present, but a n indif ferent prospect of s u c h a surplus tree years hence as will enable any Minister to propose the dispensation of this tax; if, indeed, the present eastern policy of England is to be persisted in—if the Afighan war is to be renewed—if the Chinese war is to be indefinitely waged, the people of England must be pre pared for an early increa e of the per-tentage which is about to be imposed on income." The Post says-" Supposing it were demonstrable, that, by granting universal suffrage, the party now called Conservative could obtain a majority equal to that which the Whigs pos sessed in 1833, it would not be the less contrary to Conserva tive princil lee to concede universal suffrage. We do not pre tend, however, that if every man had a vote, w ithout reference to station, property, or :my other qualification, that the Conser vatives would obtain a majority of such votes. If the right of representation rested upon numbers alone, no party could stand against the tide of revolution. The immense majority would be composed of those who have nothing to lose, and who would therefore be sure to try whether something might not be gained by change." The observes, in an article on the present state of affairs in Affghanistan We were wrong at the outset: granted. And if matters remained now where they stood six months back, we have little hesitation in avowing the satisfac tion with which we should have heard that all the supposed advantages of that unjust advance were to be simply abandoned. But it is not so. A fresh state of things has sprung up. The relations of portics are reversed. The balance of injury has fearfully changed sides. And a withdrawal which would then have been an act of high justice, which might still be an act of gerierou, compensati n in an individual who has none but him self to care for, would be now, in a Governme.,t, a betrayal of the interests and of the principles which are intrusted to its keeling." We t ile tie following from the Clironicle:—" The Income tax Act cannot. Of course, be carried into effect without an ex- pensive machinery, arid where the carcase is there will the eagles be gathered together. How much may not the hopes of par ticipating in the good thi, gs under the Act have contributed to moderate the opposition to it? It is true, all cannot have offices, but each busy personage may, nevertheless, have flat tered himself that he will be the fortunate candidate." Cr. An An!i-War meeting was held at Worcester last Monday, of about 100 of the householders, when a petition was finally adopted to be presented to the House of Commons, praying tor a discontinuance of the warlike operations in China and Aff ghanistar.

On this day, in 1794, died James Bruce, the celebrated tra veller to the sources of the Nile, at his flnily seat in Scotland. His death, in his 64th year, occurred thus :—A large party had dined at Kinnaird, and while they were about to depart, Bruce was gaily talking to a young lady in the drawing-room, when suddenly observing that her aged mother was proceeding to her carriage unattended, he hurried from the room to the great staircase. In this effort his foot failed him; he fell down several of the steps, broke some of his fingers, pitched on his head, and never spoke again. PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION.

Von Rochen, has suddenly died away, as General Von Pfuel is aprinted to succeed Baron Bulon in the Diet at Frankfort. PORMIGN. The French Railway Bill is the leading subject discussed in the Paris Journals of Wednesday. Their comments are un• import ant. The appointment of M. Lacave Laplagne to the post of Mi nister of Finance furnishes the Opposition prints with a handle for some observations on tne conduct of the Governinent. They maintain that the position of the Cabinet is seriously affected by the death of M. Humana, and they aver that the latter will not be efficiently replaced by the new Minister. We iearn, from Madrid, that anything approaching a treaty of commerce between England and Spain, is viewed in the worst light by the Catalonians. These gentry are busily employed in devising means for thwarting the good intentions of the Govern mont, and though their Deputies have declared in favour of a protecting duty on all cotton goods from abroad, still they feign to consider that their interests are at stake. Barcelona Journals continue to be filled with details of the ravages which are committed by the factions who infest the mountains. It would appear that Felipe, who is the most formidable of tie bakdit chiefs, was on the 16th in the vicinity of the Angeles, near Girona, and that he had 150 men under his orders. A sum of money has been offered for his head by the political chief of Girona, as well as for those of his Lieu tenants Proone and Geronela. The German Journals publish a circular sent by the Turkish Ministry to all the Gov. rnors of the provinces, alluding to the appointment of a Commission to inquire into the complaints of itt treatment made by some Christian subjects of the Porte at Smyrna, and ordering that, in future, the Christian subjects of the Porte, in all parts of its territories, shall have justice so fairly and equitably administered to them, that they may be ni4 longer compelled to place themselves under the protection of foreign Ambassadors and Consuls, under the impression that justice is not otherwise to be obtained from the Turkish authorities. A Bavarian Journal of the 16th inst. says :—" It is affirmed by some dignitaries of the Church, that his Holiness has posi tively determined to visit during the summer some spa in the Austrian empire. It is generally believed that his Eminence, the Prime Archbishop Cardinal Schwarzenburg has induced the Pope to take this resolution." PAUZZADTENTAIVir The Lords received some Bills from the Commons, and some petitions against the Corn-laws ; they appointed a Select Com mittee to examine Lord Denman's Law of Evidence Bill, and they adjourned. In the Commons, Mr: Divett reported that Lord A. Paget was duly elected for Lichfield ; and Sir E. Hayes reported that Mr. Hornby was duly elected for Blackburn. From the Southampton Election Committee, Mr. Reding ton reported that a Mr. Mabson, who had been served with the Speaker's warrant to bring before the Committee all the papers in his possession nn the subject of that election, had sent away part of those papers after he received the warrant, and had not produced them. To enforce the authority of the House Mr. Redington moved that Mr. Mabson be committed to Newgate ; but sub sequently altered the motion to bring Mr. Mabson to the bar. To the bar he was accordingly brought, and after being ques tioned, Mr. Reditegon moved that he be committed to the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms. A debate, which lasted a considerable time, and employed all the legal talents of the House, ensued. Mr. Hodgson If inde moved the adjournment of the debate, but was defeated by 166 to 16. In the end it was decided that Mabson should remain in custody of the Ser geant-at. Arms, and be produced to the Southampton Election Committee when wanted. The House was principally occupied for the rest of the even ing by two motions of Mr. Wallace, the first of which, to bring in a Bill to reduce the number of Judges of the Court of Ses sion, was lost by a large majority; the second of which, relative to defaulters in the Post-office, was withdrawn, Mr. Wallace consenting to receive an abstract of the information he sought.

The Court was occupied to- day in hear:ng motions, which, except to the parties immediately concerned, were wholly uninteresting. . _ EXCHEQ.UER.—(TIIIS DAY.) IN RE —, AN ATTORNEY. Mr. Sergeant LUDLOW applied to the Court to know in what manner he should frame an application to bring under the notice of the Court the conduct of an attorney who had ap peared for the defendant in a horse case, which had been tried before Mr. Justice Coleridge at the Gloucester Assizes. A witness had been subpoenaed en the part of the plaintiff, for the purpose of proving the hand-writing of the defendant. I he witness, however, had absconded on the night before the trial. The plaintiff then subecened the attorney for the de fendant, with a view either to prove the hand-writing or to have some light thrown upon the absence of the witness. After this proceeding had been taken the 4nd- writing of the de fendant was admitted ; the attorney ►vas not therefore, examined, and a verdict was found fur the plaintiff. Suspicion had, in the mean time, been excited that the witness had been im properly tampered with. It was found that, on the evening before the trial. he had been in company with the de tendant's attorney, and some friends of his, and that he hail afterwards travelled home with them. An affidavit from the witness himself was now produced, is which he stated, that the attorney for the defendant, and another party, had prevailed on him net to make his appearance on the trial. They urged on him that he ought not to give evidence against the defendant who had been a former friend of his; and the defendant's attorney gave ' the deponent a written security that he should be indemnified for- any inconvenience lie might incur by absenting himself. The security in qt:estion was produced, and was to the effect, " that the attoreey for the defendant undertook to indemnify the witness for any damage lie might sustain by reason of his going away from Uloucester as he was not a material witness." The Learned Counsel having stated that he felt somewhat at a loss to determine what was the particular nature of the application which he should make under those circumstances, some discussion took place upon the subject. It was finally arranged that he should take a rule to show cause why the at torney should nut be struck off the rolls.—Rule accordingly. ---- INSOLVENT CO URT-(THIS,DA Y.) IN RE STEPFIEN TURNER. The insolvent's petition to be discharged was Opposed in person by a creditor, named Egan. It appeared that he carried on bukitiess as a corn•dealer in the Harrow-road, and about eighteen months ago bought a horse from the opposing creditor for 501: Some altercatio❑ having arisen betwei:n them about the wareantry of the horse, the insolvent refused to pey a balance (251.) remaining dUe of the price, when an action was brought for its recovery, and a verdict given for the plaintiff, and the insolvent soon afterwards taken in execution. The ground of oprosition was, that the insolvent had vex . atiously defended the action, and thereby put the opposing creditor to unnecessary expense. After several witnesses had been examined in support of the petition, the insolvent was ordered to be discharged forthwith. POLICE INTE LIAq EN GE. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. (THIS DAY.) George Emerson, a stalwart powerful young man, son of the Mrs:Emerson, late l an dl a d y o f t h e W aterford Arms Tavern, in the Haymarket, was placed at the bar, charged on suspicion of being concerned in the following robbery. A solicitor attended on behalf of the accused. Mr. Evan Thomas, the landlord of the Phenix public-house, in Stacey-street, Soho-square, stated that between four and five yesterday afternoon the prisoner and another man 'came to his house, and having entered his variant', where there was a bagatelle-board, calved for some refneilithent, which on being served with, the prisoner's companion, as a ruse to lull suspi cion, made inquiry after a respectable tradesman who fre quented the house, but whom there is no doubt he well knew was not likely to be there at that hour, which he followed up by requesting that the prisoner and • himself might be allowed to play a game or two at the board, to which witness, not then having the slightest suspicion but that they were respectable persons, assented, and brought them in the set of balls (9 ivory ones) of the value of between 12s. and 14s. They played for about a quarter of an hour, and then suddenly came to the bar, and paying their score, let the house together. From their manner witness was induced to suspect that alt was not right, and on going into the parlour found the set of balls missing. Ile instantly followed after the prisoner and his companion, and saw them lorning the corner of a street at about fifty yards distance, and on running in tha, direction came up with the priscr.er, but his companion had made off. On the prisoner being searched at the station-house, the missing property was found in his possession. The prisoner protested that he knew nothing of the robLery ; tf:e man was quite a stranger, and had merely met him in the street and asked him to play a game of bagwelle with him. Mr. MALTBY said the case was .a very clear one, and he should certainly commit the prisoner for trial. The Solicitor scud that h.s cli. nt ought to have the benefit of his previous good character, and this being the first time of his having been. charged with any offence. Inspector •Beresford, of the C division, said that the prisoner had long hem known to the police ns leading a very dissolute and irregular life, and from information iliatim (the inspector) had received he had no doubt but that charges of a more serious nature would be brought against him. The prosecuto.• said that he had no doubt but that the pri soner's companion, who was known, would be shortly appre hended. Mr. MALTBY said that, under those cireumstances, he should remand the prisoner until Wednesday next. UNION-HA LI4.—(T HiS DAY.) siNGuLAR, APPLICATION.—A respectable-looking middle aged female applied for the Magistrate's advice under the fol lon•ing circumstances :.—The applicant stated that a year ago, being a widow, she was stay:ng at Boulogne, and met with a person of kautlemanly appearance, an Englishman, who de scribed himself to be a man of property, and to have just finished the grand tour. He made overtures of marriage, which, after a short courtship, took place, and they returned to London. At that period she was possessed of a coosidt rale sum of money, which he soon squandered, and she then di,covered that he not only was not possessed of a penny in the world, but that he hail another wife living near Newport-market, who was in a state of great distress. A few days ego while she (appleant) was from home, the prisoner took advantage of her absence, and carried off a considerable quantity of her furniture. The Magistme said, that if the applicant's Vat.ment was true, all she had to do was to give the person in custody for bigamy or robbery. ------ . WORSHIP-STREET ---(Tills DAY.) CHARGE OP RAPE.— lVilliasn Holland, a journeyman clog. maker, was placed at the bar, on a charge of having violated the person of a married woman, named Rebecca Powell. The prosccutrix stated that between 12 and 1 o'clock, lag night, she was proceeding along Chi istopher-street, Bethnal. green, whim she was suddenly assailed by the prisoner and ano ther man, the former of whom caught her up in his arms, and carried her into one of the houses. She struggled to extri ' cafe herself from his grasp, hut the prisoner succeeded in forcing her into a room on the ground-floor, where he threw her down and completed his infamous purpose. The other man was afterwards about to proceed to a similar act of violence, but he was prevented by the entrance of a policeman. Police constable H, 74, stated that he was passing th e h ouse when he heard th e no i se of a violent struggle inside, and on making his way i n to the room wh ence i t proceeded, he found the prosrcutrix, who was much agitated and exhausted, and who charged the prisoner with having committed a rape upon her. Another man was present, who effected his escape, but I he secured the prisoner alter a violent resistance. The prisoner (who stated that the woman was a consenting party) was committed for trial. CLERK.ENWELL-(THIS DAY.) Sarah Lryden was charged by Patrick Savage, the proprie tor of a tailoring establishment, in Newry, Ireland, who came to London a few days ago to learn the newest method of cutting out. It would appear that he was taught it completely. Being intoxicated on Monday night, he rnet the prisoner, who took him to Church lane, St. Giles's, where he was robbed of every farthing he possessed, 3td. Police constable Restaux arrested the prisoner on Wednesday, who acknow. 'edged having been an accomplice in the robbery. 41. of the money was found on her person, as well as a number of recent purchases. Savage, however, was m os t unw illi ng to i dentify her. He lodg e d a t .11Ir. Thorpe's Hotel, in Holborn, who lent him sonic articles of dress on yesterday, that he might attend at the police-office, and further the ends of justice. Mr. Sa vage, however, thought otherwise, and walked off, leaving Mr. Thorpe minus 31. for board, &c., and his dresi. The prisoner was remanded. NATIONAL CON VENI lON. (THIS DAY.)

The Committee ordered the room to be cleared, and lA° the doors were opened, the Chairman told Mr. Wren to use h:s own discre,ion. Mr. Sergeant SHEA now repeated the qnestion. Mr. Wrenn repeated his answer, which was that he de' dined answering. Mr. .Sergeant Strea —What did you say t o Whitmarsll 9 Mr. Wrenn &live' ed an answer to the effect that the intervieo was so very shOrt, that he could not say, and moreover he must decline to answer. He must also decline to name persons that were in the Labit of visiting the Committee - , rooms, but the Lea rne d C ounse l m i ght have a general idea 0' the visitors from the fact that they compromised all therespeet" able Conservatives of Sonthampton.—( Laughter. ) You put the figure 54 after the name of the voter Redman?

Mr. Searjant Wrangham, Mr. Talbot, and Mr. Waddingt°°' appeared as counsel for the petitioner, and Messrs. Coekbar° and KinAleake, for the sitting Member. The Committee having come to .the usual preliminary rew I utions, Mr. Sergeant WitANCHAM stated the grounds of the peti' lion. In the I resent case it was alleged that a system of gross bribery and co rru pti on was acted upon at the last election ° Penryn by Capt.

The nomination took place on the 30t° of June, and the polling on the Ist of July, when Mr. Vivis° and Capt. Plumridge were declared to be duly elected. The two other candidates were Mr. Gwynn and Mr. Sar" toris. The re' ition was not directed against the return of 3fr' Vivian, but only aga'nst Captain Plum idge, and the number of persons who voted. for him and Mr. Gwynn, who was next 0 ° the poll, were For Captain Plumridge For Mr. Gwynn - 381 Leaving a Majority of favour of the sit t.ng Member. The Learned Gentleman said that he would first go into thf question of bribery and treating ; but before he would do so be would state the grounds on which they considered he had ill sutfic:ene qualification. lie then went into that subject, ao was proceeding with it when we went to press. 51 in - - -- . MONEY MARKET and CITY NEW 91 FROM THE MORNING PAPIMS OF THIS DAY. TIMES. —The English funds are still advancing, and this appears to be no hound to the rise.
