W.7l: ; hey call Sir Robert Peel bold and straightforward for proposing a Pro perty-tax, and then proceed t o admit that he only tallied.of that, and proposed something else. They praise him for throwing the national burthens on the law.-making class, and then ' acknowledge that he proposes to throw their main portion on the middle and commercial classes. They embrace his mea sures as the only ones adequate to the crisis, and 'then they add that—to make them so—they want, like the Irishman's knife, a new blade and w new handle. Perhaps there is nothing that makes men cut a figure-64 disadvantageiciis.in the eves of persons of good sense, as the restless effort to gratify self-im portance. There is no degree of injustice and ma lignity surprising from that source, and no species of self-contradiction that does not seem to flow naturally from it. The Honourable Member for Birmingham caricatures the Honourable Member for Bath; but, after all, there is about as much logic in the one speech as in the other ; and if they were not both greet(lel with laughter, the difference was due to form rather than substance. In effect, when the oppo site views of parties are clearly defined on great ques dons, and when the reality of the main divisions of opinion cannot fairly be contested, there is something absurd in any individuals putting themselves forward to demonstrate that there is no difference worth con sidering between parties, and (by implication) that they are the only persons whose wisdom is worth listening to. This is an artifice, however, which is often successful with weak minds. The very air of standing apart, and decrying first one, then another besides being a pleasant self-indulgence, to certain spirits, is a mode of obtaining credit for austere independence of sentiment, and for penetration through the pretexts of both parties to the unapproached shrine of truth. It may sometimes be a duty to assume such a singular at• titude ' • but on questions where consistent minds can scarcely be neutral, it is oftener a trick—an' expedient for exalting self-importance, which may be allowed to let pass (as most certainly- it will always be practised by minds of a certain cast), excepting when it occasions distorted representations of facts and ar guments, which it is important should be viewed by the public exempt from the influence of such distortion. Such representations we conceive that Mr. Roebuck gave of the points.of difference between° the two par ties, as regards the questions of commerce and revenue. "On the subject of the protection to be given to corn," said Mr. Roebuck, " the Noble'Lord and the Right llonourable Baronet were agreed. He begged the House and the country clearly to understand that when there was so much talk of relieving the work ing classes, the head of the Whig Opposition, and the leader of the Tory Ministry, were both agreed on the point of protecting the agricultural interests, and keeping up the price of corn.—(Hear, hear.) And he had a sincere desire to know how those who had voted far a total repeal of the Corn-laws could go down to that House and record their votes in favour of the proposition of the Noble Lord for an eight shilling fixed duty, for it seemed to him that those propositions were utterly incompatible." If the Hon. Member's desire to know how that could be was really sincere, his sincerity must be accounted for by a surpising degree of obtuseness. No total repealer of the Corn-laws professed to be satisfied with an Bs. duty. But all (in Parliament) were wise enough to prefer a half loaf to no bread. To tell the 'Working classes that the Whig and Tory leaders were agreed on the point of protecting the agricultural interests, is to tell them what is not true, or nothing t.) the purpose. It is superfluous to tell any body that an Bs. duty would protect home producers to the extent of that duty. But if it is meant to state that the same principle and species of protection was intended by Lord John Russell and Sir Robert Peel, then what was a truism becomes an untruth. The great quesiion between the parties, and that which is' also the great question between the landed and non landed classes of the community, is whether regular commerce in corn from all quarters shall be allowed or not. Lord John Russell proceeded on the avowed principle of allowing it ; and it will not be denied that his project carried that principle out.. Sir Robert Peel proceeded on the avowed principle of not allowing it—and we fear it will be experienced that his Corn law carries out its intention. FANCY WOOLLEN STOCK. IV• P. and E.

GREAT SELLING OFF,by Mr. FOSTER, the ACCOUNTANT. 1/ 0 1R. FOSTER has instructions to submit for SALE,in Lots, as prepared for Auction, 27,0001. worth of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the Stock adver tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET STREET and FARRINGDON-STREET, trading under the firm of HEBBLEWHJTE and CO , notice having been given that an auction is not permitted by the lease. Mr. Foster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods, begs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to realise more than half the original cost, the object being to clear the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must'of necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli cited to make allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants, being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused to this method of selling goods over the counter. The following is about the reductions intended to be made. The linens being the larger portion, will be reduced as under:— STANDARD.—We must again express our re gret at being rendered, by the concurrent debates in the two Houses of Parliament, unable to keep pace in our observations with the hurried progress of many public questions. In the House of Commons last night, Sir Robert Peel made the gratifyin6 an nouncement that Omar Pacha and the licenti ous Arnauts are to be withdrawn from Le banon. This concession, so important to the safety and happiness of the Christians of Syria, was made to the urgent remon4rances of Sir Stratford Canning. Sir Stratford Canning did not wait for the authority or instructions of his Government, but at the first moment he heard of the danger threatening the Christians of Lebanon he interposed for theirprotection upon his own responsibility, and interposed success fully. Such is the effect of sending abroad repre sentatives worthy of the character of • England —men who have the talents to see their duty and the inter es t s of their country, and moral courage to act, without being insured against damage by a dispatch in their pockets. If men like Sir Stratford Canning had re presented the empire in China and India during the last six years, how great are the calamities that this country would have been spared ! But no ; there were Elliots and Edens to be provided for. COURIER.—It was really amusing to hear Mr. Cobden, in the course of the debate, accusing Mr. Ferrand of maligning the manufacturing interest and the Anti-Corn-law League, that very modest and moderate person being himself only known for years past as the wholesale slanderer of the landed and other great interests of the country. He complained, moreover, that copies of Mr. Ferrand's speeches were extensively circulated. " Why," said he, "10,000 copies of his speech were circulated throughout the country, and the organs of his party went about re viling the Anti-Corn-law party. lie (Mr. Cobden) did not pay much attention to the speech of the lion. Member for Knaresborough, because his arguments were founded on false premises, but he looked with surprise when the members of the Govern ment allowed it to go forth uncontradicted." Why this accuser himself never issues one of his vulgar and violent tirades against the agricultural and West India interests, landlords, farmers, and sugar-growers, without forthwith, as if Demosthenic bursts of eloquence, having it reprinted in the pamph let form and dispersed, given away, like his stupid pamphlet about Russia, &c., by tens of thousands to the right and left. The press of the Manchester Times is kept constantly working off his cartloads of anti-corn law trash. What, moreover, has the Uovernment to do with his defence and that of the League ? Are the roar ing rollickers of leaguers transformed on the very first attack into so many babes and sucklings that and parry the first t t h he r y ust ea ? nn i o ' t ho sp se ea l k vh f o or liN t . l e le i l n lls g el lti ve ss s houses should be ware of throwing stones, as the Member for all Stockport should know, and it may Ixt hoped will practically improve the knowledge for the future. The snivelling appeal for help to the Members of the Government he is daily reviling, comes with ludicrous consistency from such a quarter. s. d. 730 pieces of Irish linen, mostly Knox's make, that cost from Is.

Should the length be four.d in convenient a further reduction will be mad: in the price.

A meeting of the Bondholders on the Spanish Treasury was held yesterday at one o'clock, at the London Tavern, Bishop s gate-street, to consider what steps it might be necessary to take in order to procure the settlement of their long:standing claims against the Spanish Government. The meeting was not very numerously attended. J. TAsKER, Esq., was called to the Chair. lb said it must've perfectly obvious to every one who hal invested pro perty in this kind of security, that the time had arrived when it. was essential that they should take some measures with a view of obtaining that justice which they ought to have ob tained nearly five years ago. Those n.easures would consist in appointing a Committee to watch over their interests, to placed, as far as it could be, in communication with their own Government and with the Government of Spain, in the hope that they would be able to bring the question to something like a practical settlement. He accounted for the meeting not being lat ger in point of numbers from the fact that a claim, originally not more than half a million, was not calculated to bring together so large an attendance as a claim to a much larger amount. It might surprise some 'gentlemen to be told that some of the Bonds, to the amount of one-half or one third of the whole, had been paid off to the original holders at par. This it'd been done by an unfair mode of dealing with creditors, by allowing a favoured few to be admitted and mixed ip with subsequent financial operations, and, by excluding the public at large. He asked whether this was not sufficient of it self to justify them in bringing their case forw-rd? While A and B hid received punctual payinent, the public had not re ceivtd sixpence. He thought the case was without `paralel. Arrangements bad even been made for the payment of debts incurred three, four, and five years after their own ; he should not, in the present position of the Spanish Bondholders, wish to frotest against that payment, but now that the civil war had cased, when funds were no longer wanted fir that war, which had always been made one of the pleas for non-payment, it wss most extraordinary that they were to be told they must wait, while they saw these subsequent debts being paid cis er their heads. It was one of the misfortunes of foreign loans, that men of high character and standing were sometimes in duced to become agents for them. The fact of Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid being the agent for these Treasury Bonds, at once induced the greatest confidence in them, and this, added to the stringency of the decrees and the declaration of the Ambassa dor as to the payment of the principal as well at interest, raised them to four times the amount f other Spanish securities. For the many details connected with the question, the worthy Chairman referred the meeting to the pamphlet which was co - culated in the room, and expressed a wish that Sir I. L. Goldsmid, who had himself a claim on the Government for a sum of 1,400/. for the - exi ensg of the conversion of these bonds, could be induced to place in his hands the instructions and do cuments that he must have received, and of which he thought. he could make a good use. He wished that Sir I. L. Gold smid could be induced to use the same energy and activity in their behalf which he disp'ayed in other undertakings in which be was interested. The Chairman concluded by reading a memorial which he had prepared. and which he thought might be considered too moderate in its language, under the circum stances. The memorial was short, and pointed out the claims of the holders to the Government, which had been previously acknowledged. Captain BRITTEN thought that the claims of the Bondholders having been so long disregarded, much strong er language than that used in the memorial proposed by the Chairman should be adopted. He thought the manner in which the Bondholders had been treated, either showed that the Spanish Government were determined not to pay their claims, or that there had been cross negligence on their part, and he did not think it was the latter. He would propose for the adoption of the meeting the following resolutions : " ReQved,—That a deputation of the Committee and Holders of the said Treasury Bonds or Spain, solicit to have an interview with the Right Hon. the Earl of Aberdeen, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, setting forth the various solemn claims and laws of the Queen and Cortes of the Spanish nation, and the advertisements of the Spanish Ambas sador and agents respecting this most peculiar property, pray ing. his Lordship to review the said laws, decrees, and adver tisements; and that if his Lordship decides that they are valid and binding, to request his Lordship will forward an energetic note to the Spanish Minister of Finance, requirity. ' their accomplishment by a just and prompt di sc ha rg e o f the engagements in lieu of the total neglect and abandonment they have experienced. _ _ _ _ Mr. Foster particularly directs the attention of families re quiring Carpets —many superb patterns in rich Brussels wil' be sold without reference to tha cost, good qualities at 2s. 6d. and 2s. 9d. per yard ; several lots of good wide Kiddermin ster, excellent qualities, Is. 4d. and Is. 9d. Observe, the sale is now on at y b ebblewhite and Co.'s Warehouses, 165, Fleet-street, corner's Faringdon-street. Omnibuses pass by every five minutes from all pats of the town. Carriages will find it most convenient to set down in Farringdon-street. CAPT. MARRYAT'S LAST NEw NOVEL—The ad mirers of Capt. Marryat's truth-telling narratives, will be happy to learn that his last production, and unquestionably one of the most powerful and original that has hitherto proceeded from his pe n —" J o seph Rnshbreek, the Poacher'—has just, appeared in a cheap form, s) as to come more within the mans of that large class of readers by whom it is likely to be, at least, as well appreciated, as by those who, being able to enjoy litera ture as a luxury, are apt to overlook those to whom it is a necessary of their intellectual life : To these latter, the home coming narratives of Capt. MarryatLthe Jacib Faithfuls," the " Peter Simples," and this admirable recent addition to them—" Joseph Rushbrook"—are what their " daily bread" is to their bodily existence—the " staff cf Cheapness, therefore, is more essential in the case of such works than in any others that can be named. _ a DIAMOND SNAKE.—On Saturday, the 23d inst., beautiful specimen of the diamond snake was caught by Mr. Charles Evans, chief officer of the ship \Villiam Turner. The reptile was ascending the chain cable of the vessel when caught. It measures about four feet, and as it is rather an uncommon circumstance to hear of a diamond snake taking the benefit of sea bathing, the one in question has been pre served or, board the vessel for the gratification of the curious, Sydney Paper. " SeCondly, That the deputation be required to impress on his Lordship's mind the scandalous deviation from honesty and justice on the part of Senor Surra y Bull, the Spanish Minister of Finance, in proceeding to make arrangements with the cre ditors of Spain of a more recent date, and of a more ordinary nature, while those who assisted under such extraordinary laws, decrees, and advertisements were put off, either from the payment of capital or interest, from 1837, and were to be disregarded, to the great prejudice and injury of their pro perty." He (Captain Britten) thought that upon a proper re presentation being made to the Earl of Aberdeen justice would at last be granted them. The CHAIRMAN thought there could be no objection to both the memorial and resolutions being carried. The memo rial and resolutions, after a short conversation were agreed to, a Committee was appointed, agreeably to the terms of the memorial, and the Meeting broke up, after passing a vote of thanks to the °airman. ELECTION COMMITTEES. WAKEFIELD. The Committee met yesterday mprning at eleven, and the room having been cleared. the Committee proceeded to deli berate on the objection made by Mr. Cockburn on Tuesday, to the readin; of the rritice to the electors of the disqualification of Mr. Honldsworth. After a short absence, strangers were re-admitted, and the Chairman announced that the Committee had decided that the notice should be read. It was read ac cordingly. After which, Mr. Cockburn objected to the Committee proceeding to consider the validity of the votes on the poll, contending, that as they had yesterday decided that Mr. Houldsworth was the returning officer, any poll taken before any other person was invalid—any return of such poll by any other person mere waste paper, and that, therefore, the Committee had nothing to adjudicate upon, but must treat all the proceedings at the election as null, ab initio, and declare the election void. 1M PERIAL PARLIAMENT, HOUSE OF COMMONS. April 20. The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour. IPSWICH ELECTION COMMITTEE. Mr. PAKINGTON, the Chairman of the Committee, appointed to try the Ipswich Election petition, informed the House that the Committee had that day come to the 11.illowing resolution :—" That John Thurston had been wilfully guilty ofgiving false evidence in his examination before the Committee." It was then ordered on the motion of the Ilox. MEM BER, that the Speaker should issue his warrant for the committal of John Thurston to the gaol of Newgate, till the House gave some further order in the case. KINGSCLERE INCLOSURE BILL. Sir W. HEATHCOTE moved the third reading of this Bill. Mr. WAKLEY said he should have spoken on this question before this period had it not been that, owin,:; to the manner in which it was put upon• the paper, it. had escaped his observation. He 'thought the opponents to this Bill had good grounds for their opposition, and if the House passed this Bill it would inflict on those parties the grossest and foulest injustice. Some persons said that the Whigs injured the people, and o ther s sa id th a t th e - T or i es did so. On this k.;ounnittee thore were eleven Members, nine of these were Tories and two Whigs, one Whig being in the Chair. The Radical had nothing/to du with, it, The Bill came bt;fore the House in 1834 and 1835. 7 .11 e would ask whether .tie petitioners against this JIM must not have ha --n -good case- when the Curaini-j;e threw it up ? In 1834 Mr. Waters caused this Bill to be rejected ; he sent a survel or down to Kingsclere at his own expense, . and from the statements in the report made by that surveyor, the House was induced to throw out the Bill. There were 200 families now dwelling on the place, and they would ue cast on the wide world. The House was assuming that the persons who called themselves Lords of the Manor were so in reality—on one side they assumed that there was a title, and on the other side that there was no title. Before the Committee, the petitioners against this Bill had no means of conducting the opposi tion ; he hoped, therefore, that there would be no oppo sition to the amendment he was about to propose, which was, that the minutes of evidence taken before the Kings clere Committee be laid before the House. Lord WORSLEY said that the persons who misled the poor were not the friends of the poor.—(Hear, hear.) The House, he thought, could not interfere between the Lards of the Manor and fhe occupiers. If the law were wrong let them alter it, but he did not th:n'c it right that the people should be misled by the idea that the House would interfere. Mr. O'CONNELL said he was on the Committ► e, and he voted against the Bill because he thought it was an attempt to create a new law. Sir WM. HEATHCOTE said, after the long discus sion which took place on this subject last night, he did not deem it necessary to trouble,the House with any observation, more especially as the Hon. Member for Finsbury had not urged any new argument. The most of the Honourable Member's observations were directed to the question whether the House was to entertain Inclosure Bills or nat. This Bill was founded on the model of all other Inclosure Bills, and it was for the House to say whether they would throw out an In closure Bill founded on the same principles which they had pointed out. Mr. FIELDEN said the cottagers on this common had held possession for sixty years, and the House was now. going to pass a law to put them out ; if the aristocracy did this they deserved to be crushed. He thought the Committee acted a most monstrous part in recommending the Bill ; for what could be worse than to dispossess parties, without giving them compensation? He should, therefore, vote fur the amendment of the Hon. Member for Finsbury. Mr. LABOUCHERE said, that he thought it his duty to defend the conduct of the Committee as its Chairman. They had only acted and judged upon the evidence that came before them, and no person could be more sorry than he should be, if the Bill did any injury to a single individual. But he still remained of the same opinion, that the interests of the community generally, • and of the labouring population in the neighbourhood. would be pr omo t e d by the Bill.—(Hear, hear.) With regard to the dispossessing of persons without compensation, the Committee only obeyed the directions of the law. Those persons who held for twenty years would receive compensation, and though the Bill was now brought in, the Lord of the Manor might eject per sons under the circumstances. He - had no interest in the matter but to do his duty as Chairman of the Com mittee, and he did not think that justice would be done if any further delay or inconvenience were int er p ose d. Mr. GODSON thought this Bill was an extremely hard one upon the poor man, and he should, therefore, give it all the opposition in his power, unless some altera tions were made in it by the addition of other clauses. It had been said against those who objected to the Bill, that they had not proposed a clause to the effect of giving them the power ofpurehasing the land in the Committee; that certainly was true, and that was the reason why lie ved the re-committal of the Bill. Sir V. BLAKE, although he:voted fur the Bill yester day, trusted the House would grant what was asked. Mr. GRIMSDITCH thought that if ever there was a Bill which ought to pass into a law, it was that After a few words from Mr. Stansfield, Mr. C. Powell, and Mr. Fielden, Strangers were ordered to withdraw, and the House divided, when there appeared— For the third reading For the amendment . 11l 30 Majority ---8 1 The Bill was then read a . third time. On the motion that the Bill do pass, Mr. WAKLEY said the House bad decided upon dis possessing 500 people of their holdings without hear ing the evidence on which their decision should be founded. Could anythingbe more unjust than such a decision? No wonder that there was often a manifestation of violence and disaffection on the part of the poor, when such atrocities were perpetrated. There were two proposi tions before the House—one that the Bill be read a third time, the other that the evidence might be printed, in order that the House might see what the claims of the parties were. The House had determined to decide without hearing the evidence. Why if a jury had acted in a similar manner they would have been denounced by the House as a set of unworthy scoundrels. The effect as regarded these poor cottagers would be fearful in the extreme. The Lord of the Manor having forfeited by neglect his manorial rights the House had no right to take the law into their own hands. He should meet the motion by a lecided negative. The House having divided, the numbers were— That the Bill do pass Against it 26 Majority —92 On re-entering - the gallery we found Mr. GODSON ou his legs, who was moving the insertion of three clauses into the Bill, to the effect that the poor cot tagers w ho were at present dwelling on the common should be enabled to purchase the land on which their cottages stood at the same price per acre as the adjoining land, and that those who had possession ten years should have two acres of the common attached. The clauses were then brought up and read a first time. On the motion that the clause be read a second time, Mr. LABOUCHERE said he thought it would not be advisable to agree to the clause, because it treated those who had not become freeholders by lapse of time in pre ci ely the same manner as if they were freeholders. These persons had made encroachments on the waste, and by this clause the House was called upon to sanction those encroachments. The House had no right to do that. It might be' all very well to make these parties a present of the plot of ground, but it should be recollected that by so doing, they were in terfering with the property of others, • and exercising a power which the House ought not to assume. - Mr. GODSON said the clause did not treat the parties in question as freeholders, it merely gave them the liberty of purchasing a freehold. After a few words from Sir W. HEATHCOTE, Mr. CRIPPS said that he should have no hesitation in voting against the clause, because it gave a legal • sanction to encroachments which persons had no right to make. Mr. AGLIONBY said that lie had heretofore voted with the majority under a misconception of the powers given by the Bill. •He could not consent that ma norial rights should be used to inflict a robbery on the poor. The present Bill contained one clause, such as he newt r before heard of in an Inclosure Bill, that was clause 53, and the clause which was now pro posed would do much to counteract • its influence. lie thought that the proposition contained in this clause was a very fair and reasonable one. All that was asked was that the cottages might not be pulled down, but that the party might be called upon to pay for it, and he thought that was not too much to ask. Sir J. WALSH supported the clause. Mr. WAKLEY was afraid to appeal to the House on th^, ground of the justice of the (Awe, for in the ratio of. its justice lay the improbability of its success. The Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Labonehere) had cast the weight of his authority against that justice. To this case the House had determined by a vote that it would not see the evidence upon which it was called upon to decidc. He (Mr. Wakley) had been this morning in the clerk's office, having attended on the Committee • upon the Marylebone Vestry Bill, which Bill, he was happy to say, had been withdrawn, and he there had seen one of the principal witnesses examined before the Cot t _. inittee, who declared that. the Lord of the Manor had been negligent with reference to his rights , and accord ing to that witness's evidence, it was a question wh et h er the person who was called the Lord of the M anor b a d any right at all. He (Mr. Waklay) sh ou ld give hi s earnest and cordial support to the proposition of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman. The House divided. The numbers were— For the clause Against it Majority ---27 The Bill was then read a third time, and passed. • 4 • THE BIBLE AND CHURCH Mr. MILES presented a petition from the Pro..estlbt Lay Association of Shepton Mallet, prayin i . - .; the ilikitse to legislate so as that the Bible should be,matle the basis o f all public education. Also a petition ii favour of Church -rates.--(Hear, hear, and laughter.) THE IRISH POOR-LAW, • Mr. POWELL presented a petition from the Guar dians of the Limerick Poor-law Uuion, complaining 0 defects in the Irish Poor-law, and praying for their re formation. THE TARIFF. Lord WORSLEY presented a. petition from .some place in Lincolnshire, signed by 6,000, ;4triner; ! ;alß per sons concerned in agri.miture, against the tariff'.proposed by. the Right Hon. Baronet. REPEAL OF , THE UNION. , , Mr. O'CONNELL presented several pctitiniiS from places in Ireland, praying for the repeal of the Legis lative Union. IPSWICH . ELECTION = PREVARICATION OF WITNESSES. Mr. RIGBY WASON presented a, pet Lion from an individual named Lucas, who had been conopitted to Ncwgate, on Tuesday last, for prevaricatlivi before the Ipswich Election Committee. The petitioner stated that his wife was lying dangerously ill at Ips wich, and that he was extremely sorry for. the 4,llfence which he had committed, and he prayedthat he might be permitted to be again taken before the Committee.- when he.would make th b e only amends in his power for the offence he had committed, by giTing the Com mittee a full, fair, and detailed . account of every circumstance relating to the subject which had (Time to his knowledge. He begged to move that the pt;- tition be referred to the Ipswich Election Committee. As he perceived the Hon. Member fi4r Droitswich in hia place, he begged to state that it was not his (Mr. R. \\rascl's) fault that he was not in his place, in the House, to state the circumstances of the case at the time that the Hon. Member brought. up the Report. He had not thought that a Report of that sort would have been brought up at the time of private -business, nor ought the House, in his opinion, to commit a person to Newgate at such a time, merely on the Report of a Committee. Sir GEORGE CLERK was not aware of any prccel dent for sending a person, committed for prevarication, before a private Committee, and he thought the House ought to pause before it established one. kr. BIGBY WASON said there was no precedent ow Way or the other. He had taken the opinion of the Chair on the subject, and the Speaker had agreedatith l)im in opinion, that it would be better to adopt the course he had proposed. If, however, it were thought more advisable that the man should be brought to the bar and examined, that course might be adopted. Sir G. CLERK thought, that as there was no rrecc dent either way, the House ought to take time to con sider beliveit established one. Mr. PAKINGTON would not have troubled the House, had not the Hon. Gentleman opposite accused him (Mr. Pakington) of having taken him (Mr. R. Wason) b surprise. When be made the Report he was called upon by the Speaker to do so, and he did it under a full impression that the Hon. Gentleman"was then in the House, ready to make his statement. Mr. RIG-BY WASON said he did not make any hil l putation against the Hon. Member. He made the state, merit for the purpose of showing that he himself had not, been negligent. - - - The SPEAKER said, this was entirely a new case, and the House must, therefore, decide ►•hat course to pursue. After a few words from Mr. Darby, Mr. Parker, Mr. Greene, and Sir R. Inglis, the petition was brought up, and ordered to be printed with the Votes. Sir G. BANKS presented two petitions from Dorset against .the alteration of the duty on importation of foreign cattle ; .and from the solicitors of that county, praying to be relieved from the duty on certificates. The HON. GENTLEMAN said, he would take that op portunity of thanking the House for the indulgence they had shown him in excusing bins for not attending on the Wakefield Committee. He could assure the House hq would not have been absent hadit pot been for his serious illness. Mr. G. PALMER presented a petition against the alteration proposed by the new tariff with respect tq leather. Mr. II EATHCOTE presented a petition from Bournei Lincolnshire , expressing the alarm the petitioners enter tained with respect to the New Corn Bill ar►d the tariff, and praying, that if those measures were passed, lowering of taxes of every description might take place, in order to remedy the evil those measures would intro duce.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Member presented similar petitions from different parts of the country. Mr. MURPHY presented a petition from the mee.: chants and tradesmen of Cork, praying that the Post; office communication contemplated between Bristol an 4 the south of Ireland should be established ; also, a peti tion from a number of Irish law students studying in London. The petition related to the Bill now before Parliament, called the Barristers' (Ireland) Bill. The petitioners complained of certain onerous burdens which were thrown on the students for the Irish bar. '1 hey prayed for a repeal of the Act of Henry VIII., and the Act of Elizabeth. They also prayed that the students for the. Irish bar should be placed on the same footing ,as the English students. SPIRIT DUTIES IN IRELAND. Mr. O'CONNELL gave notice that he should, on Friday, move that no spirits made between the sth of February, 1841, and the sth of February, 1842, should not be charged with the proposed duty. The ll;ght Hon. Member moved that the petition from Armagh, upon the subject of criminal prosecution in Ireland (presented 18th April). be printed with the Votes. Mr. Sergeant JACKSON said there could be no ob objecCon to the motion. Mr. O'CONNELL said he intended to make a motion on the' subject for an inquiry. The 'fox. MEMBER moved to have Mr. Maurice O'Con nell added to the Select Committee on Fisheries (Ire land) Bill. . • Lord G. SOMERSET trusted the House would sot encourage the practice now growing of adding, witnout any reason being assigned, to the Members of Select Committees: lie would make no opposition to the Hon. Gentleman's proposition, but he thought it right to take that opportunity of calling the attention of the House to the matter. Mr. O'CONNELL fully concurred in the observations of the Noble Lord ; but the cause of his present motion was, that not having time himself to attend on this Com mittee, of which he had been nominated a Member, ho had applied to the Noble ,Lord, the Secretary for Ire • land, to have his name withdrawn, and that of his son substituted instead.—The motion was then agreed to. Mr. S. (j'BRIEN moved for leave of absence for a month for the O'Connor Don, and also that Mr. John O'Connell be added to the Committee On the Irish Drainage Bill. THE EXCHEQUER BILLS' BILL. Sir GEORGE CLERK - read the amendments of the Lords on this Bill, which were agreed to. On the Order of the Day being read for proceeding 11 ith this Bill, Mr. C. BULLER complained that the Government proceeded with their own measures \on a Wednes day, which it was generally tmderstr.od should he left to lion. Members for their Bills and motions. He wished to know whether the - Australia and , New Zealand Bill would be proceeded with to-night ? Mr. WAKLEY said he thought that Government measures should not be taken on a Wednesday night. The Noble Lord bad moved the Orders of the I)ay, for the purpose, as he presumed, of bringing on the Licensed Lunatic Asylums Bill. lie thought it was not fair to enter into such a question before a House like that. Ile hoped, in ease the Bill went into Committee, that the bringing up of the Report would be postponed till Tues day fbrtnight. Lord G. SOMERSET intimated that be had no ob. .jection to postpone the bringing up of the Repoli till the time specified by the Hon. Gentleman, but he thought it advisable to go into Committee on the Mr. PAKING TON said that he thought the House ought to go into Committee on the Bill, but that sonic observations might be necessary before they did so. • LUNATIC ASYLUMS. On the motion, for going into ComMittee on the Li censed Lunatics' Asylum Bill, Capt. PECIIELL presented a petition from Mr. W. Bailey, who had for the last two years and a half been confined in a lunatic asylum. The petitioner stated that he was still detained in the asylum, although iie was not halt' so insane as the persons who kept him there ;1 that he was ❑ot, and never' had been insane,•and prayed 'for inquiry into the management of Lunatic W. MILES presented a petition from the proprie tor of a Lunatic Asylum against the Bill. Mr. WAKLEY presented a petition from the Preid dent and Members of the British Medical ,Associ u t_on, objecting to the proposed appointment of, barristers as commissioners, under the Bill. The House then went into Committee on . the Bill.. On clause I being put, Mr. WAKLEY rose to move his am stituting medical men instead of barris'ters as. visiters under the Bill. He believed that the Noble. Lord was desirous of effecting a certain amount of good ; but the means he had taken to attain it were most in...dequate. The proposal was that two barristers Should be ap pointed for the purpose of visiting Lunatic Asylums in this country. It was really difficult to • find terms to express one's sense of the absurdity of such a proposition. Barristers to visit Lunatic Asylums ! Barristers to de termine whether men were of unsound mind or not! Did not in d s i a dtt, h c ' o, ail case; s t e el lfrtChinemsTa('t b i l t di i l e l ;u ( s l t et.t b et e a ? medical investigation ?

'e l l i . n ( Ye e,rl tli nT at e' a ilint) barrister' effect, wotll lie knew anything if be was paid ; there was nothing they would not try their band at, if they were paid a tee. One great advantage of bar ing medical men would be the influence they could have on the physicians and medical officers of the asylum, while the barristers would be laugbed.at as totally igno. rant of medical matters. Was anything of this kind done in the church or the law ? No. Here there was bill. hospi tal for sick persons, and by this Bill they proposed to appoint persons connected with, the law to , improve their health. Ile thought there was. not a murk: marleed or pointed failure thamthe Metreepolitan Lut4tie commissioners, for the great masterinishiett:i . the sibteucan_ left by that commission untouched. lie thoughisothing was more absurd than•appointing barristers time . proposed by the woUld move, therefore, that in the third line of the first clause, the words" two mid mi.ssioners for the tiara being," he e7unged, and the words " two medical coitirmssioners,' be inserted in their stead. It was his intention, originally, to, have in serted, one medical commissioner, but that the Noble Lord had informed bins that the commissioners wore to act separataly. Lord G.

A rather equivocal set of yellows were examined yesterday. A kind of bribery commission-agent, named Thurston, acknow ledged that he had received 1/. each from Browne and,others as a per centage for the money they got through him for voting for Rennie and NiTason. Brown swore that Thurston promised him 201. if he voted for the yellows. He voted accordingly for Rennie and Wason, and then Mr. Sampson banded him 201. at the King's Head. Joseph Keas said he was promised 51. by Mr. Sampson to vote for the yellows. He gave the rote, and got the money. Being cross-examined, witness acknowledged that he had bellied himself on one occasion to his employer's money. The Committee, who had been some time in deliberation on the evidence of Thurston, ordered him to be taken into cus tody for prevarication; and he is now in hustody. limes Goldsmith was canvassed by Mr. Buckingham on the day of the election to vote for Rennie and Wason. He hesi tated. What do you want, says Mr. Buckingham? 25/. said witness. Mr. Buckingham shook his head, and went to consult the Committee, and came back with a Mr. Smith. The three gentlemen had a shurt dialogue, the result of which was, that Mr. Goldsmith was driven in a chaise to the poll, where he voted for Rennie and Wagon ; after which he went home, and his mother handed him 20/. Mr. Goldsmith, on cross-examination, recollected that he was for merly employed by Mr. Bond, in whose name, but without whose authority he obtained some leather. Mrs. Goldsmith, the mo ther of Mr. Goldsmith, was examined and cross-examined. The old lady said she remembered giving her son 201. for his vote ; she also could not deny that her daughter-in-law was prosecuted at the last Sessions for robbing Mr. Buckingham, for which she got four months. The foregoing is a specimen of the day's proceedings. The Committee made a resolution not to receive the fact of a mere tender of a bribe as evidence. THE lONIAN ISLANDS. The Semaphore of Marseilles, of the I,sth of April, has the rollowing "Marseilles, 14th April. " FREEDOM OF THE COIN-TRADE IN CORFU. " The Consul of her Britannic Majesty at Marseilles, has addressed, to our Chamber of Commerce. the translation of an ordi"ance of his Excellency the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands, dated Corfu, the 18th of March last, of which the following is a copy. •' Stu—l have received the orders of his Excellency the Lord High Commissioner to acquaint you, for the information of all those who may be interested in the circumstance, that, from the 13th of June next, the trade in corn, which has hitherto been a monopoly of the Government, will be open to the public at Corfu. " A true copy by authority. " The Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. "S. BERTEAUT. • STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANcIIESTEn.—The activity displayed by the Liver pool cotton market has not produced any corresponding animation here ; and no material change can be noted from the state of circumstances existing last week. Per haps, on the whole, there was a slightly increased demand for yarn yesterday, with somewhat more of steadiness in prices ; and a .few of the manufacturers were unwil ling to accept the exceedingly low prices which prevailed the week before. Not the slightest advance, however, could be obtained on any article, and prices, both of goods and yarn, continue at the very lowest point ever known. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, APRIL 18. —The business transacted in the flannel market to-clay has been very limited, and the prices very low. There has been a large attendance of wool dealers in the mar ket, and they are pushing sales at reduced prices. • HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, APRIL 19.—This was a profitless market day in almost every respect. There were few buyers, and the sales realized were exceedingly few and paltry in amount. Prices are nominal. In short, trade is all bat paralyzed. without any definite pro,pcct of improvement. At this season the position and prospects of the manufacturing interests were never known to be so unfavourable. Last. Friday night, between eleven and twelve, some thieves'got into the Howe of Mme. Avenel, a widow lady. at. Bolbec, in Normandy; but the noise they made awoke the maid servant, who *lept in her room. She immediately rang the bell, alarmed the family, and frightened away the intruders. and all remained quiet till the morning. On Saturday night the attempt was renewed, but at a later hour, four in the morn ine, and with greater caution, for the thieves made their way into 111 me. Avenel's chamber, and attempted to strangle both her and her maid. The woman, however, though en gaged in a struggle for her life, retained sufficient presence of mind again to reach the bell-pull with her elbow, and rouse the rest of the family, and once' more put the villains to flight before they could accomplish their nefarious purpose. Mme. Avenel was nearly at the last gasp, but with care and attention she has been recovered. to t 1 0M C,)"" xl) cir e t : e C , t Tep ee itat e A' .st st3v stap, vt flow )r t h° 10i ) . P 30-
