The health of Lord Rancliffe was next drunk amidst the most enthusiastic cheering. His Lordship acknowledged the compliment, and proposed as a toast " The present Admini stration, and success to them." The toast was drunk with three times three, and great applause. Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE said as a member of the Administra tion, and as a Cabinet Minister, he should not perform his duty if he did not, on behalf of his colleagues and hirrfself, return his most respectful and grateful thanks. He believed the present Government Was founded on the principle and in tention of doing the utmost possible good to the people.— (aravo, and cries of " Hear, hear," with loud cheering.) The healths of the Lord Chancellor and Lord Denman were .then proposed by Lord Rancliffe, and drunk with much applause. " Sir Ronald Ferguson's health" was next proposed by the Chairman, and drunk with much enthusiasm. " The health of the Vice-President" followed. The CHAIRMAN then said he would be performing an act of great injustice if he were not to give the health of that Nol?le individual Earl Grey—(Cheering)—who through life had advocated the principles of reform, and by whom the prin ciples of Charles Grey were carried into effect by Earl Grey. Enthusiastic applause, and cries of "hear, hear.") They would not separat% . without expressing the strong feelings of gratitude which tliby owed to Earl Grey, who had, he re peated it, carried into effect in advanced life the. principles of his early youth.—(Great cheering, amidst which his Lord ship's health was enthusiastically drunk with three times three.) Sir JonN HonHousE rose to return thanks, and having ob served that he had had the honour of being Lord Grey's pub lic servant, and having pronounced an eulogium on his Lord ship, whose character, he said, was not for the present time, for posterity—( Cheers) said " Let others hail the rising sun, I bow to him whose course is run." • " Lord Duncannon's health" was then drunk with mud, Applause, after which the company separated. Sir John Hobhouse left Nottingham at six o'clock on Satur day morning, fur London. NEW YORK PAPERS. NEW YORE, JUNE 28.—The Gold Bill, as it is termed, has probably before this time received the concurrence of the Se nate and the signature of-thar and tlrus become a law ottlie rand: The object of this measure is simply to regulate the future coinage of gold in such a way as to diminish the re lative value of gold coins to the par of silver. According to the standard which has been hitherto acted upon, gold has been considered to be worth only 15 times as much as silver,—that is to say; an ounce of gold and 15 ounces of silver have been considered, according to the comparative standard of the Mint, as of equal value. But in point of fact, gold bears a higher proportional value in the bullion market than 15 times its weight in silver; and hence the gold pieces coined at our Mint command a higher price than their stamped value. An eagle contains at present 2471 grains of pure gold, and is a legal tender for only ten dollars. Yet 232 grains of pure gold are received in the bullion market as the equivalent of ten dollars in silver ; and hence an eagle is intrinsically worth more than ten dollars in the proportion of this excess, or 66 cents and a fraction. The standard which is now about to become the law will fix the relative value of silver and gold at 16 to 1 ; or in other words, the eagle will contain 232 grains of pure gold, while the dollar contains 3711 grains of silver. _ This is an important measure, though we think its import ance has been overrated in some of the journals. It is im portant, inasmuch as it will diminish the difficulty of carrying that policy into effect, by which it is contemplated to restore a metallic currency, in the place of the paper promises to pay, which have so completely filled up all the channels of circula tion, and driven silver and gold money, but gold more especi ally, out of use. In order that money should circulate freely, its exchangeable and nominal value should coincide, or at all events vary but slightly. The use of gold, according to the present mint standard, would be attended with inconvenience, even if paper were wholly withdrawn from circulation. Men would not readily receive coin at a premium. It would take time for them to learn that 10 dollars meant 10 dollars and $6 cents. But, though the undervaluation of gold at the Mint would retard its general introduction as circulating medium, and would at all times be felt as a great inconvenience, yet it is an egre gious ,mistake to suppose that this difference between its stamped and its real value has driven it from the country. Bank-notes have driven gold from the country ; and while bank-notes continue to be issued without stint, no efforts of legislation on coinage can bring back the precious metals into circulation. If Congress should attempt to raise the value of gold by making the standard for the eagle less than 232 grains, it could not by such a measure force it into general cir culation ; nor would it circulate at all, except at a discount proportioned to the depreciation. The same cause has driven gold coin from the country that has driven silver, except the fractional parts of a dollar. We find enough of quarters and halves of dollars for all the purposes of circulation, but we sel dom, comparatively, meet with dollars. Yet dollars would be as plentiful as their fractional parts now are if dollar notes were withdrawn ; iu the same way that the fractional parts of a metallic dollar were as scarce as dollars now are when notes for 124.. cents, 25 cents, and 50 cents were freely issued. WASHINGTON, TUESDAY NIGHT.---The proceedings in the Senate to-day have been such as will redound to their cre ditlo all succeeding times. They have, indeed, purified the sanctuary of the Constitution, the place from which all law shOidd emanate, -without a stain, from the foul and corrupt ing, and most dangerous of all practices, and by which, henceforth, the occupant of its high and honourable post will beTileterred from following in the steps of its late possessor, by the fall that has justly followed that personage. His nomi nation as Minister to England was rejected, 23 to 22, a Vote which shows that it was not what is technically termed a party vote.' This was well begun, but a better remains be hind. Mr. Secretary Taney was rejected, by 30 to 15, and, to mark further that party feeling could have no share in causing this high, honest, and independent body, thus to re ject those miserable minions and tools of corruption, the high character in which Mr. Butler—partisan though he be, and a steady and warm one too, of Mr. Van Buren—was estimated sojilifferently from that of the others, that his nomination, I rejoice to state, was confirmed by a triumphant majority. The principle being now settled by that august body, by which no member of Congress shall be confirmed by them to any office until the Constitution is restored to its original purity, will work wonders. Already have we seen its effects in the fallen visages and gloomy looks of the political aspirants of the day. We shall not in future, I should hope, see the hall of th e L e gislature prostituted to the desire of ffice, and made the un blushing market of venality and corruption. It is needless to comment further on the importance of this decision. They have shown themselves worthy of the trust confided to their hands." , PRICES OF STOCKS THIS Bank Stock 21S 6. 3 per Cent.

The Irish Coercion Bill was re ad a first time in the House of Lords on Saturday, and will undergo a second reading this evening. The Ministry have likewise determined that the Irish Tithe Bill shall be passed this Session, in spite of a de claration of Mr. O'CONNELL'S, who asserts that three months would be requirred to carry it through the Commons. Lord AL THO RP thinks one-third of the time sufficient, however pertinaciously the Bill may be opposed, and he has resolved to delay the rising of the Parliamant• till this measure be ac complished. We hope the Bill will not be so opposed as to create any unnecessary postponement of the arrangements of those gentlemen who, calculating on the early rising of the House, were preparing to leave town; and that, at the farthest, Parliament will rise in the course of the ensuing week. The French Papers of Friday and Saturday have been received, extracts from which will be found in another column. Don CA nLos is making no progress in Spain. It is believed he cannot hold out a week after the meeting of the Cortes ; but whether that event will be delayed in consequence of the increasing prevalence of cholera at Madrid, is not yet known. Some of them have already arrived, but 95 are necessary to constitute a Chamber. The French Ministry have appointed Count D R 9 UET D'ERLON, a brave, gallant, and experienced officer, whose father served under NAPOLEON, Governor of Algiers. This appointment has given general satis faction. The triumph of truth, and humanity, and religion, achieved in Spain by the final abolition of the (Holy !) Inquisitioh, and the appropriation of its revenues to State purposes, is worthy of being celebrated with re joicings throughout Europe. This glorious event was formally announced in the Spanish Gazette on the 17th inst., and never again may the earth groan be neath the weight of such an instrument of accursed torture, nor the sacred name .of Religion be employed to sanction the dark and diabolical deeds of which its ministers were the only witnesses. GOD be praised ! this is one of the first fruits of constitutional liberty: the golden harvest is fast ripening. The cholera rages in Madrid ; and, by accounts which we have received up to the 19th, there, is little hope of its speedily abating. The victims to it were dying at the rate of from one to three hundred a day. Great excesses were committed in consequence of its being believed by the people that the Monks had en tered into a league with Don CARLOS, and poisoned the wells, so as to cause the mortality among them. In consequence of this belief, for which there was not the slightest foundation, a tumult was raised, and the multitude killed five friars in the public streets, forced their way into the convent of San Isidro, belonging to the Jesuits, and butchered twenty of the brethren; then attacked the Franciscans in the Convent of St. Thomas, many of whom they massacred in the most inhu man manner ; and were it not for the active interference of the Government, it is doubtful, whether they would have left a single friar ' alive in the city. The secular Priests have not been molested, nor has the slightest manifestation of ill will been shown towards them. FRENCH FUNDS.-Eous, JULY 25. Five per Cents., 105 f. 70c. 90c. 85e.

We have received an early copy of this important document, which was submitted to Congress on the 22d of April. It comprises 326'pages large Bvo. We learn from it that the value of imports into the United States, during the year ending the 30th of September, 1833, was 108,118,311 dollars, being more by about five millions than in any former year since the period immediately subse quent to the last war. The exports during the same year, ending September 30, 1833, amounted to 90,140,433 dollars, of which 70,317,698 .dollars in value were of domestic origin. The value of do mestic exports was never so great before in any one year, ex cept in 1818, when it was 73,854,437 dollars. The value of all exports, foreign and domestic, was never before so great, except in 1818, when it was 93,281,133 dollars ; 1801, when it was 94,115,925 dollars ; 1825, when it was 99,535,388 dollars ; 1806, when it was 101,536,963 dollars; and 1807, when it was 108,343,546 dollars. The amount of AMerican tonnage which entered the ports of the United States from foreign countries during the same year was 1,111,441 tons; departed, 1,142,160 dollars.

On the 18th the Supreme Government received intelligence by express that the city of Jalapa has deposed its civil authorities, and made the same declaration against the Government that the towns of Orizava and Cordova had just done before. Under date of the 21st, it is stated in letters from Puebla, that on the night of the 17th inst. a band of about 200 armed men seized en the Convents of St. Domingo and St. Augustin, loudly de manding the deposition of the actual Government of the city and state, and making the snme Proclamation in favour of re ligion and the Church that was done at Orizava and Cordova. NEW IVIECHANICAL POWER.--An ingenious me chanic at Brussels had just applied a new power to mechanics, from• which great results appear to be expected. This new povier is galvanism. Across a fly-wheel which is to give mo tion to the machine he has placed a metallic bar, previously magnetised . by a galvanic pile, and within the attraction of two very powerful magnets. The moment that the bar ar rives.in a rotatory course at the limit of the attractive power, and" where it would necessarily stand still, the inventor, by the .application of galvanism, suddenly converts the attractive , into a repulsive power, which continues the motion in the same direction, and by these alterations, well managed, the wheel acquires a apid. rotation.

In Russia their fury was directed against the physicians. The same was partially the case at Edinburgh ; and at Paris the Carlists were accused, as at Madrid, of poisoning the fountains, and the wines used by the lower classes, in the hope of profiting •by a general commotion. The Government at Madrid have viewed the subject in this light, and have by proclamations and other measures endeavoured to disabuse the minds of the people. According to the latest accounts quillity had been very generally restored. On Friday last General MINA left this Country for Spain. The blue ribbon, vacant by the death of Earl BATH.. URST, will most probably be given to the Duke of GRAFTON. His Grace is the only one of his fa mily who has not had that honour confirred upon him. He has very recently lost one of his sons, who was member for Thetford. There is a rumour that six. Commoners (in Parlia ment) are to. be raised to the Peerage. We have heard the names of four, but to prevent mistake we abstain from mentioning them at present. They will give satisfaction to the public, and tend so far to libe ralize the House of Lords.

Among the most reflecting portion of the Members of the Established Church, it is universally admitted , that unless some decisive step be taken by the Legis lature to reform our ecclesiastical institutions, England will soon present to the world the prodigy of a reli gion whose every member has been consecrated by the " laying on of hands"—shepherds without flocks, and sheepfolds without even a lamb to bleat for en trance. The abuses which at first were sighed over by the religious, and which it was hoped that time, and a sense of the danger to which they exposed the Church would effectually eradicate, have gone on ac cumulating, till their magnitude and enormity can neither be concealed nor palliated. Those wolves in sheep's clothing by whom these evils were engen dered for " filthy lucre's sake," succeeded for ages in deterring the sincere lovers of aposto heal Christianity from urging their complaints publicly, by branding with the name of Atheists, all those who dared to expose their pride, their immorality, their avarice, and their ambition ; but the emptiness of this clamour has been so clearly manifested in the lives of some of the most strenuous opponents of the Church Establishment ; and especially by the diffusion of scriptural knowledge among the people, that the most rancorous stickler for " things as they are" dreads to apply an epithet which the multitude are beginning to regard as an ecclesiastical designation of a person of unusual cleverness, firmness, and honesty. The notices given by Mr. CUTHBERT RIPPON, in the House of Commons, on Wednesday evening, of the Honourable Gentleman's intention, during the next session of Parliament, to bring in a Bill to relieve the Bishops from their attendance in the House of Lords ; and to move a resolution " that Deans and Chapters not having cures of souls are useless," will, if carried into full effect, go a great way towards restoring the Church to its primitive purity ; and will wipe away much of the just grounds for that hostility with which the. Establited Hierarchy of this country is now regarded. It is impossible that any Prelate—however vast his acquirements, and strong his constitution—can discharge his spiritual duties as a Christian Priest, who is obliged to give his attend ance to, and aid by his counsels, the deliberations of an assembly having to legislate for this kingdom. The very duties of a Senator and a P r i es t are i nco mpatible with each other. From the constitution of the House of Peers it is morally impossible that any body of men could breathe its atmosphere—could -Mold intimate communion with its hereditary Members—could stand in the relations of guardians of its mo rality, and still continue to tread in the humble footsteps of the Apostles, preaching the gospel to the poor, without money and without price—pouring the balm of a saving faith into the bruised and broken heart—seeking the stray sheep on the mountains, and bearing it back with blessings and rejoicings to the fold. The Apostles were not legislators—the Primi tive Bishops attended no state councils—and though their flocks were not numerous, they found more cause to lament their inability to perform their spiri tual duties, than to boast 'of a time which they might devote to the perusal of Acts of Parliament, or the framing of Bills for the recovery of tenths, tithes, first-fruits, and Easter-offerings. Neither did they, in appointing their assistants and successors, intimate that any time was to be devoted to affairs other than those enjoined by the gospel. ST. PAUL, in appoint ing a Bishop, used these remarkable words, which ought to be engraven on the hearts of all ecclesiastics, " I charge thee before GOD, and the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who shall judge the quick and the dead, prea . ch the word ; be instant (ready) in season and out of season, &c. ; be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel ; watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry ; in all things show thyself a pattern of good works, &c., give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine, &c. ;" and in his charge to the clergy of the church at Miletus, he says, " take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock over whigh the HOLY GHOST has appointed you Overseers (Epis copos) to rule the church of Gon." How strangely must these words of the Apostle, sound in the ears of divines who were brought up for the church; not because they evinced any youthful predilection for sacred things; but because their family possessed rich living's', and had sufficient interest to have the ecclesiastical scions of their houses elevated to the episcopal bench. _ The appearance of Bishops in the House of Lords is a disgraceful remnant of the worship paid by' the patrons of the Church to the spirit of feudalism and the love of personal aggrandisement. Bishops were first admitted into the British Parliament, not as Bi shops, but as barons holding large manors under THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 28, 1834. the Crown, and obliged by .right of their castles and other tenures, to attend the King in the great - council of the nation, and to furnish, and keep in pay, troops of retainers, in numbers proportioned to the extent of their baronial territories. After the Reformation many of the clergy Were expelled the Senate—such as the mitred abbots, for example—and their possessions be stowed on'temporal Peers ; and those who remained were kept to act as a check i►n restraining the licen tiousness of an assembly, then in a state of such bar barous ignorance, that some of them could not read, and few could • boast: of any learning beyond that of being able t 6 write their own names. They were, in a word, no more than preservers of public decorum in debate, .and seldom dared to excite the jealousy of the Houie by either speaking or voting on any question not: connected with the property or discipline of the Church. In Parliament the Bishops, with a few individual exceptions, have ever been the most violent opponents of personal and religious liberty. Whenever the people were to be oppressed by taxes or personal restraints, the Crown always found its firmest adhe rents among the occupants of the episcopal bench. Burthened with large and expensive establishments— solely occupied with schemes for the advancement in life of .a numerous and expensive offspring—goaded on to the brink of desperation by love of political pre-eminence —and hard of heart, from the very nature of their anti-christian communion with their flocks through the medium of bailiffs and proctors—the Bishops always looked to the Minister, from whom only they could expect the gratification of desires denounced .by heaven, and mourned over by the righteous on earth. They were sensible that the pedestal on which they stood was not the rock on which Christ built his church ; and hence their furious denunciations of the Dissenters,—their cling ing to the Test and Corporation Acts,—their phrenzied opposition to Catholic emancipation,—their monodies over the sepulchre of Old Sarum,—and a thousand other exhibitions of illiberality, all equally fruitless, unjust, and contemptible. Even Bishop BURNET, in his history, confesses that the conduct of the Prelates in Parliament, from the earliest times, was marked by a rancorous illiberal spirit, more worthy of illiterate barbarians than a Christian Priesthood. The existence of Deans and Chapters, without cures of souls, has so long been admitted by all, (save inte rested individuals) to be an evil of such immense mag nitude, that we only wonder how the country has had the patience to bear so long with its continuance. The approval of a resolution, which declares them to be useless, by the House, will be mild in the extreme ; for well we know that, they are worse than useless. We trust Mr. RIPPON will not,—as many others haVe done,--consent to a polite request to drop these notices, before Parliament and the country have ex pressed an opinion of their merits. Frcim what we know of the Honourable Gentleman, he is not a per son to be cajoled out of the performance of a sacred and most important duty to his country, by a drawing room compliment—by whomsoever paid. He has our thanks, our confidence, and best wishes for his ultimate success. COURT OF CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) COCHRANE V. COCHRANE. Sir W. HORNE said this was a case that was to have been heard this morning in his Lordship's private room, but that the parties had not been able to find the young man. They were however of opinion, that provided they were armed with sufficient authority he could be found, and as it was essential not only for the happiness, but fOr the very existence of the young man that he should be found, and should be forthcoming, the Learned Counsel hoped the Court would not hesitate to interfere. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the necessary process should issue in the course of the day. A FEMALE ADVOCATE. A lady, neatly and handsomely attired, soon after the Court sat, entered within the bar, with a brief in her hand, and was just about to seat herself on the Solicitor-General's right hand, when she was informed by a gentleman behind the bar that she was trespassing. This excited some amusement. The lady withdrew immediately, and took her stand at the entrance to the bar. After having re mained there until that which was in course of hearing was disposed of, she opened her brief and moved towards the Lord Chancellor. His Lordship . inquired what was her pleasure. She said she appeared 272 the matter of Beamington (as we understood), a lunatic, but the Court informed her that that matter could not be heard then, upon which she retired. BODENHAM V. RICKETTS. Mr. SOLICITOR-GENERA L moved in this case to quash a signi ficavit, and three writs which had issued upon it on the ground of irregularity. The writs had issued from the different proceedings that had been taken, the first from the Court of Hereford, the second from the Court of Arches, and the third from the Court of Delegates. The original proceeding was adopted by the Rev. Dr. Taylor, of Hereford, against Mr. Thomas Bourke Ricketts, for the non-payment of Church-rates. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL contended that none of the proceed ings were in conformity with the accounts of plaintiff, and the schedules annexed thereto. Mr. RUSSELL appeared on the other side. The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered the whole to be quashed, upon the objections raised by the Solicitor-General, except the last writ, which he allowed Mr. Russell further time to look into some autho rities upon. The COURT rose at 12 o'clock, that his Lordship might attend in the House of Lords. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)

AFFLICTING CIRCUMSTANCE.—Yesterday the remains of the late Mr. Reikie, baker, No. 409, in the Strand, and those of his son, a youth of 14 years of age, were interred in the same grave. Their funerals as they passed through the streets, excited much sympathy for the deceased. The son died on Monday last, of a wound which he received a fortnight before, from falling on an iron spike, from the bough of a tree i n Hyde Park, and the father expired on Tuesday, having had recourse to poison, caused by the extreme distress of his mind, on which occasion the Coroner's inquest brought in a ver dict of insanity. Mr. Reikie was much respected by his neighbours.

In the con test Chadwick threw his antagonist over his head. He pitched on his head on the flagged floor, and fractured one of the higher bones of the vertebrae. He lingered until Wednes day morning, and expired. A verdict of " Accidental Death" has been returned.—Liverpool Chronicle. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, THIS DAY, MONDAY, JULY 28. HOUSE OF LORDS. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at twelve o'clock. On the motion of the Marquis of SALISBURY, the Commons' amendments to the Friendly Societies Bill were agreed to. — The House then went into Committee upon the Poor Laws Amendment Bilk; clause 52, taking away the power from the Magistrates to order out-door relief was the first put. The Marquis of SALISBURY suggested that cases of peculiar urgency might arise in which it would be advisable to continue the power until the first meeting of the vestry. As the law at present stood the overseer was placed in too respon sible a situation, for if he refused a pauper relief who had a magistrate's order, he was liable to an indictment, while, if the vestry refused to - pass his accounts, he was obliged to pay the money so paid upon order out of his pocket. He would propose, that if any such orders were dis allowed, the money ought to be paid by the magistrate who signed it. • The Bishop of LONDON did not think the' magistrates would accept such a power, clogged with such responsibility. He thought the Court of Guardians would support their over. seer, if he paid no attention to an order under such circum stances. The Bishop of EXETER said he thought the p - ower o f indictment was scarcely to be taken into account, for there was no source provided from which funds to prosecute were to be taken. He proposed a proviso by which justices were em powered to order relief in sudden cases of emergency, and if refused, the overseer to forfeit, upon conviction, the sum of five pounds. The Earl of HAREWO OD objected to the power being given to the magistracy, because their orders were to be over ridden by the Commissioners. The Bishop of LONDON thought if the proviso was added to the Bill, it would altogether nullify the clause, and reduce things pretty much to the same state as they were at present. After a few words from the Earl of WINCHILSEA, Lord WYNFORD, and Lord CHICHESTER, The LORD CHANCELLOR agreed to the amendment of the words food and clothing being struck out, and other necessaries introduced instead. He could not agree with the amendment of the Noble Marquis ( Salisbury), for it was a new and not very good plan to make a Judge pay for a wrong decision.—(A laugh.) After a few words from the Duke of Wellington, Lord Ellenborough, Lord Wharncliffe, and the Lord Chancellor, the amendment was altered, to embrace only cases of casual poor of a peculiar, sudden, and urgent character, and agreed to. The clause was further amended, and at last was agreed to ; it then gave power to the guardians to order relief to the casual poor, in cases of absolute necessity, but not in money. (I.IOT SITTING.) HO USE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the chair at 20 minutes past twelve. Mr. POTTER presented a petition from the Protestant Dissenters of South-place Chapel, Finsbury, most numerously and respectably signed, praying for a separation between Church and State. Mr. PR YME wished the petitioners had expressed them selves more intelligibly, so that the House might understand what they sought for. Mr. GILL ON was surprised that the Hon. Member for Cambridge should not understand what was meant by a sepa ration between the Church and State. Mr. E STCOURT referred the Hon. Member to the opi nions of the Lord High Chancellor of England upon that point. Mr. BAINE S defended the conduct of the Dissenters. They were not seeking for an unintelligible object, and he was surprised that any explanation upon the subject, should now have been considered necessary. The Dissenters wished that all sects of religion should be placed upon an equal footing with respect to the public education provided by the Govern ment. Mr. FINCH maintained that if thefwere to have an esta blished religion and church, that church should be connected with the State. Lord R. MANNERS presented a petition from a place in Leicester in support of the_ Established Church. THE LATE DUKE OF YORK'S DEBTS. Sir E. CODRINGTON presented a petition from the tradesmen employed in building and furnishing the House of the late Duke of York in the Green Park, complaining of the non-payment of their demands by the then Lords of the Trea sury. The Hon. and Gallant Member then referred to the correspondence that had taken place between his late Royal Highness and the Government of 1826, relative to an advance of money for the completion of the House in question, for the purpose of showing that his Royal Highness was most anxious for the payment of these demands. Mr. WARBURTON contended that as the tradesmen had agreed to complete the house, on the understanding that the Treasury would advance the money, the Government was bound in honour and justice to fulfil its contract. He thought inquiry was absolutely necessary, and if nothing was done this session, he would recommend his Hon. and Gallant Friend to move for a Committee of Inquiry early in the ensuing session. Mr. C. WOOD said the claims of the petitioners, as against the Government, were most preposterous. Certain contracts had been entered into by the late Duke of York and the Go vernment, which depended upon the Government being se cured the first right of purchase, but these contracts had no reference whatever to the claims of the petitioners. Mr. G. F. YOUNG trusted that the Hon. and Gallant Member would move for a Committee of Inquiry next session, as it appeared that nothing would be done in the present session. It was plain, even upon the showing of the Right Hon. Gen tleman opposite, that an inquiry ought to be instituted. After a few words from Sir E. CODRINGTON in reply, the petition was laid on the table: DRY ROT IN TIMBER. Mr. LANGDALE presented a petition from an individual named J. P. Kyan, praying that an invention - of his,- by which timber, &c., was effectually preserved from the dry rot, might be made the subject of inquiry, with a view to its introduction into the Royal Dock-yards. The Hon. Member stated that timber prepared in this manner had been used in the public offices of the Board of Customs and Excise, Woods and Forests, &c. and had received the approbation of the m os t eminent architects and scientific men. Mr. LAB OUC HERE could conceive no proceeding more likely to involve the country in expense than that proposed by the present petition, or one more likely to be attended with dangerous consequences. The Admiralty were extremely anxious to proceed with caution upon this subject, as no less than 350 schemes like the present had been offered to them. It was, however, the intention of the Admiralty to try the experiment discovered by the present petitioner in some works going on in the dock-yards at Portsmouth, and they were determined it should have a fair chance. Mr. R OTC H said that the experiment ought to have begun five years ago ; he was glad, however, to find that at length the experiment was to have a fair trial. The present peti tioner had been most unfairly dealt with by the Surveyor of the Navy, who superintended the former experiment. He deprecated the trusting future experiments to Surveyors of the Navy. He could himself bear testimony to the value of the experiment, which, if adopted in the navy, would save several hundreds of thousands yearly in the navy estimates. He was perfectly satisfied with the course proposed to be adopted by the Right Hon. the Lord of the Admiralty, Mr. Labouchere. Sir E. CODRINGTON was very glad to hear that this experiment was to have a fair trial. Mr. L ABOUCHERE explained. Mr. H. JOHNSTONE said he examined the experiment minutely, and was perfectly satisfied with it. After a few words from Mr. M. PHILLIPS, the petition was laid on the table. Major FANCOURT presented several petitions from the county of Devon, in support of the Church. Colonel VERNON presented a petition from Armagh, to the same effect. Mr. HARCOURT presented a petition from Henley-upon- Thames, in support of the union of Church and State. _ Sir C. B URRE LL presented a petition from the parish of Flamstead, in Hertfordshire in favour of a labour-rate. Admiral ADAMS presented a petition from Logand and Alloa, in support of the Established Church of Scotland. Mr. G. F. YOUNG presented a similar petition from South Shields. Mr. T. ATTWO OD presented a petition from a Friendly Society .of Birmingham against the Friendly Societies Bill. The Hon. Member presented a petition from an individual of the name of Laurence Cockerell, complaining of being dis missed after twenty-four years' service from the Revenue ser vice, for refusing to receive payment in clothes.—( A laugh.) Mr. T. SHAW presented several petitions in support of the Established Church. Lord LOWTHER presented a petition to the same effect, from Cumberland. CUSTOMS' BILL. Upon the motion of Mr. P. THomsoN, the House resolved itself into a Committee of the whole House upon this Bill— Colonel GORDON in the Chair. After some discussion the Chairman reported progress. The House then adjourned. NEW PIER, GRAVESEND.-The opening of the Pier at Gravesend will take place to-morrow with great cere mony. The Mayor of Gravesend has issued cards of invitation to members of the Corporation, and several respectable inha bitants of the town, to dine with him in celebration of the event. The entertainment is to be given under a marquee on the Pier, where preparations were made for the purpose on Saturday. The Pier extends about 160 feet into the river from the bank, and is supported by thick and substantial iron columns, with an iron rail at each side to prevent accidents, and is a very agreeable promenade. It is lighted at night with blue lights as signals to the vessels passing and repassing, and, when the tide is in, boats can pass under the Pier, which is a great convenience to the watermen. On the same day, a new Pier is to be opened at Greenhithe. HEROIC FEMALE.—Henrietta Walton, the cele brated Dutch miniature painter, was pressed both by Peter and Frederick the Great to leave her native country for theirs, resisting in both instances the most splendid offers ; and when asked by the Russian despot a reason for her refusal, she re plied that she was contented with her lot, and could not bear the idea of living out of a free country. FATAL AFFRA Y .—A few nights since a dispute occurred not far from Shannon-bridge, at a christening. After quarrelling some time the owner of the house and his child were killed. We understand the difference arose about a part of the fortune the unfortunate man was to receive at the birth of his child. Six of the rioters have been transmitted to Galway gaol for trial at the approaching assizes.—Ros. common Journal. LITERATURE. DISCOVERIES IN ASIA MINOR; Including a Description of the Ruins of several Ancient Cites and especially Antioch of Pisidia.. . - a. By the Rev. F. V. J.Arundell, British Chaplain at SiThYrit 2 vols. Bvo. R. Bentley. London, 1834. Asia Minor, on many accounts, is one of the most irate' resting parts of the globe, not only on account of its many and superb antiquities, but because it was the cradle °I ; Christianity ; for there wer e sit ua t e d t h e seven churches' the Revelations. But notwithstanding its vast importance" considered either in reference to ancient history or to the religion we profess, our knowledge is extremely imperfect as to the sites of many o f it s mos t f amous c ities ; an" Ait was to remedy this geographical deficiency, that the re' rend author whose work is now before us, undertook to e r , plore the whole of Anatolia, particularly its central Par t of and to search for the situation of the ancient towns Apamea, Sagalassus, Colosste, and, above all, A n tioch e r Pisidia, rendered memorable. by the discourses and.Pers eew tions of St. Paul. The latter once d e t erm i n ed, " w°- „id greatly assist," says Colonel Leake, " the comparative geo graphy of all the adjacent country." In the hope of acc em ; plishing these objects, o ur au th or avo id e d all the ro utes hitherto published, and, accompanied by an intellig ent friend, Mr. Dethier, set forward on his search, and, ha ng fixed the sites of Eumenia and Apamea, discovered the magnificent remains of the town of Apollonia, where th e / met with a colony of Greeks who had lived there from t he earliest ages of Christianity. Mr. Arundell's s uccess a s regarded Apollonia assured the fulfilment of the grea ter object of his journey, namely, the di scover y o f Antioch of Pisidia ; and accordingly, at a distance of forty-five wiles from the former city, the grand relics of the metropol is ° Pisidia appeared in view, with its pr o st ra t e t em ples, arch es ' and magnificent aqueduct. What a moment must this hav e been for our travellers ! To see not only these vast ° ills of a former age, backed by aw f u l mountains, but to be able to settle a point which has hitherto defeated the researc hes of the geographer, and to breathe the air rendered sacred for ever by the sighs of St. Paul ! • But the admirable • • author shall give the account of his succ ess in his 0 01° ' pressive words. er " At nine a tomb in the ro c k c l ose on t h e r i g h t , an d a gua r as of an hour after several others behind a fountain, were hadtk i - do t auspicious tokens that we wer e o n th e roa d to A nt i oc h, qr at lest auspicious an ancient Roman road. 0 . 0 " From hence, leaving the plain on the left beneath us, ascended into an open country ; h ere we were i n d ou bt about thee right road ; the larger one, for ther e were t wo , apparen tly lead g, too much to the south. After remainin g some ti me i n u ncertata a horseman was seen at a considerable distance, and Mikan] Ping ting his horse at full speed, succeeded, aft er a l ong race , in ge,„,t ti bt , up with him. At a quarter past ten a fe w h ouses l ay on the rie, " We had from time to time observed di s ti nc t vestiges of an cient road, parallel to our own, and no w a b ou t e l even o'elocicsis., e. plain of Gialobatch, or, with Kyriacos's better orthogriphtt def l batz, opened beneath us, and on the mountain side, which caw s , a the plain opposite at the left, we saw considerable remains c". s% aqueduct. Descending into the plain, we crossed a river ilow l tbe from the north, at a quarter past eleven, and having traversed plain, and met numerous well-constructed carts, drawn by bun arrived at the town of Yalobatz at a quarter before twelve. n o' " If we had not seen the aqueduct, the quantity of Unw e- f t squared blocks of stkie, and sculptur e d f ragments , w hi c h we - w e' all the way to the khan, would have convinced us at once that were on the site of a great city. W e f e lt conv i nce d t h a t we the attained the great object of our journey, and were really on spot consecrated by the labours and persecuti on o f th e a postles r a and Barnabas. yea. " We arrived at the fortunate mo men t w h en t h e kabobjra° 6 g. had just been unstopped, and Mr. Dethie r p a yi ng a v i s it to the bazaar, and Kyriacos to the baker, it fell to my lot to bargain!,„' the kabobji. His kabobs were of goat, and as tough as if ean`,, e ' o ; poraries of St. Paul. The well or cave in which the kabobji his provision , dragging it up with a long hook, was not a bad , i „ k l ' tration of Hadji Baba, and I expected every moment to see a """ - „ s t head hooked up from the dark abyss. We dispatched our kabobs, and went in search of Antioch of Pisidia ! . t he " Leavinc , the town, and going on the north side of it, in , direction of aqueduct, we were soon up on an e l eva t e d plat,,,, e ; accurately described by Strabo by the name of Ard<POS• t quantity of ancient pottery, independently of th e ru i ns , told us ' e a t, we were upon the emplacement of the city of Antioch.

Ps io o on, a long and immense buildin g , cons t ruc t e d w i t h prodig to t stones, and standing east and west, made me entertain a hope „„a it might be a church—a church of Antioch !It was so ; the gr ° ,„,li plan, with the circular end fo r th e hems., all remaining ! would I have remained for hours in the midst of a temple—p we re one of the very earliest consecrated to the Saviour; but we obliged to hasten on.

Not a single Christian - resides in it, except a single Greek in the khan. Not a char nor any priest to officiate, where Paul and Barnabas, and tbeict cessors, converted the thousands of idolators to the true faith • a na This short account is simple, unpretending, dear in this manner is 'the whole book written. Every P e o f carries conviction with it of the value and correctne ss the author's' researches ; and the profound learning , 8° perfect acquaintance with his subject, which are ever/ where apparent, while they add to the value of the volume co do not in the slightest degree detract froM the rom 3e and poetical effect of the descriptions,in which the O r abounds. Altogether we consider Mr. Arundell's narrative 01 to discoveries in Anatolia to be, if not the , greatest additi° geographical knowledge lately made, at least not infecto r importance to any production which for manyy.
