I'llE LONI)ON JO-ORNALS. DAIIN • Extractsfront the Morning Papers,March 4 , 1525. [BRITISH PRESS.] An animated debate took place last night in the House of Lords, on the presentation of a Petition from the Roman Catholic Deputation, praying to be heard by Counsel against the Bill for suppressing Unlawful Associations in Ireland. 'The prayer of the petition was supported by the Earl of Carnarvon, Earl Gray, Lord Holland, and the Earl of Darnley ; it was opposed by the Earl of Liverpool and the Lord Chancellor. On the division of the House there appeared a majority of 69 Peers against 23, for reject ing the intended speeches of the Learned Gen tlemen .from the Sister Island. The Bill was 4 fterwards read a second time, after another de bate of some length, the numbers being on the Second division 146 contents, against 44 non-con tents, leaving a surplus majority of 102 in favour of the measure. In the Lower House of Parlia ment, a motion by Mr. 'Moberly, for the repeal of the whole of the Assessed Taxes, was dis cussed, and rejected by a majority of 111 Mem bers against 64. Whatever it may please the Hon. Gentlemen of the Opposition to affirm, we are convinced that the general judgment of the country has approved of the wise and whole some policy of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. NO pretence can be grosser than the affected solicitude for the welfare of the lower classes on *hich the objections to our present financial sys tem are raised. By throwing open and extending the trade and manufactures of the kingdom, we provide con,tant and well-paid employment for all, the best gift that can be bestowed on the 1 1 labourer, and the surest foundation for the corn fort and prosperity of his employer. If the 'Chancellor of the Exchequer, for the sake of a false and fleeting popularity, had abandoned the true interests of the country, he would have de served our reproaches in the same degree in :which he is now entitled to our thanks and gra titude. [NEW TIMES.] Mr. Maberly brought forward his motion, last night, in the House of Commons, for the Repeal of the whole of the Assessed Taxes. It required Some boldness on his part to persevere in making ..such a motion, when the thin attendance of :Members might have convinced him, that the Rouse and, the country wholly approved of what the Chao.cellor of the Exchequer had proposed to do in the way of reduction. The Honourable Gentleman seems to have felt this, as he com menced his speecb with praises of the eloquence - and ability of 'Mr. Kobinson, and expressions cif - call concurrence with his enlightened prin ciples of commerce and finance. Mr. Maberly objected to the lessening of the duty on spirits, questioned the probability of our being able to get rid of smuggling, and, contending that . ..4.4q Sinking Fund was insufficient, wished it to have been interfered 'with. The Chancellor of - the Exchequer successfully replied to all Mr. )4a berly'sassertions, and skewed the beneficial effects that would result from the measures he had pro posed—that the reduction of the Duty on Coffee .would cause an increased consumption of that article, and, consequently, would prove most ad vantageous to our West India interests. Indeed there can he no question, that the reduction of duties on all kinds of commodities does invaria bly tend to augment their consumption. The Right Hon. Gentleman further shewed, that a million and a half which was now diminished in ,taxation, would,- in the ensuing years, become three millions. l\l r. Maberly's motion was nega tived, on a division, by 64 to 47.—1 n the House of Lards, the second reading of Mr. Goulhurn's Bill was carried, after a long discussion, by a majority of 146 to 44. [MO RNI NG POST.] Previously to the second reading of the Bill for the Suppression of Unlawful Societies in Ire land, the Earl 'of Caernarvon presented to the House of Lords last night a Petition from several members of the Catholic Association, praying to be heard at the bar, by Counsel, in defence of that Association and in opposition to the The Noble Lord then addressed the House in favour of the Petitioners, and moved that they be heard at the bar. The Earl of Liverpool com bated the motion, on the convincing ground that If one body .were heard by Counsel, all other bodies which might think themselves affected by this or by any other measure, would claim and have a right to be equally heard, in which case it would become impossible to legislate. Ile was ably supported by the Lord Chancellor, and after some inconclusive observations by Earl Grey, Lord Holland, and Earl Darnley, the House rejected the motion, on a division, by a majority of 69 to 23. The discussion was then opened on the second reading of the Bill, and the arguments by which it was sup ,ported and opposed, during a debate of four nights, in the other house, were reproduced with little novelty of form. The issue, however, was mot doubtful ; and the enemies to the Bill hay ing ventured to divide the House, were left in a small minority of 44, against a triumphant majo rity of 146 !—ln the House of Commons, Mr. Maberly made his promised motion for the total repeal of the Assessed Taxes. The Chancellor o f th e Exchequer,. however, vindicated the supe rior expediency of his plan for the present; and Mr. MaberlY' s Molion was rejected by a maio- Bill for repealing so rity of 11I: to 64.-11,e much of the Assessed Taxes as the Ch ance ll or o f the Exchequer mentioned i n hi s financial.state ment on Monday night Was then read a second time; and Mr. fierries obtained leave to bring Bilito make some improvements in the mode f receiving the Land ax. [MORNING. HERALD.] The second reading of the Catholic Association Suppr e s s i o n Bill was fixed for last night in the Al_. L ik: 4l ,4 4 Lords. There was a tolera b l y full, at. . I, enuart of peers; but.below t h e bar was not 12346 ciosided with strangers. Around the Tbroney at the upp e r end of the House, where Commoners are privileged to station themselves, there were many, chiefly Irish Members present. Previously to discussing the Bill a long conver sation arose on a petition presented by the Earl of Carnarvon, from the Catholic Association, praying to be heard by themselves or Coun sel, at their Lordships' bar against the Bill. Lords Liverpool, Eldon, &c. declared that the proposition was inconsistent with the practice of the House, and that in the language of Parliament, the petitioners were " not entitl ed." This motion having been rejected, their Lordships proceeded to . debate the Bill. In the Commons, Mr. Brownlow presented a petition from Protestants in Ireland, Members of" Orange Lodges," praying to he heard before the Com mittee inquiring into the State of Ireland, to vin dicate themselves against charges preferred in Parliament, by the Association, and by others. They maintained that their loyalty was so indis putable as heretofore to have called forth the praises of the present Home Secretary, Mr. Peel; that their object had been to support the Government, and that it was therefore very hard to be maligned in the way they had been. Mr. Brownlow was understood to intimate that after the passing of the Bill the Orange Lodges would cease; and Mr. Ahercromby and Mr. Peel represented Mr: B. as distinctly stat ing that henceforth the Orange Lodges were to be considered as " extinct." Mr. Secretary Peel declared that he had heard this intimation with unqualified satisfaction ; that he was glad to learn the Orange Lodges would have the good sense to abstain from entering into a contest with Parliament ; and that although he did not dis pute, and never had questioned the loyalty of the members of those Lodges, he could not deny the prejudicial tendency of such Associations. Official men had, he said, belonged to those Lodges, as they declared, from a sense of duty, and to exercise the influence they possessed there; but he emphatically expressed the hope that from the moment of the passing of this Bill, no official ma❑ would deem it consistent with his duty or his loyalty to belong to any Orange Lodge. He wished that the name might cease to exist — (Lord Kenyon presented a similar Petition to the House of Lords.)—On account of the state of the Catholic Question, to relieve the fears of the many, and to show that he had no unfair hostility towards the Established Church, Mr. Hume said he should altogether discharge his notice of motion (which stood for Thursday, the 10th inst.), for a Committee to inquire into the state of the Church Establishment in Ireland ; but, he added, in lieu of such motion, he should occupy that same 10th of March with proposing a Resolution declaratory of " the propriety of dispensing with the present system of the Sinking Fund "—a notice, being so given, that called forth such merriment and loud cheering.—Sir T. Lethbridge brought in the Bristol Ship Canal Bill, which Canal, he stated, would be from the English Channel to the Bristol Channel, along a line upwards of forty miles in extent, and ca pable of admitting vessels of 200 tons burden. — There are to ,he two harbours, one at each end of the Canal ; and the estimated expence of the whole work is two millions—" which," said Sir T. L. " i., ready, and more, if it be wanted."— Mr. Maberly brought forward, in the presence of a very thin House, his motion regarding the repeal of all the Assessed Taxes. Mr. Brougham, in the course of the evening, in urging the ad vantage that would result from repealing direct taxation, mentioned that, after the reduction of the \Vine Duty was announced, for the 151. duty taken off, the dealers raised the price of the article 101. [MORNING CHRONICLE•] It is impossible to deny the truth of what was advanced by Lord Liverpool, last night, that " during the last few years more has been done for the good, for the peace, for the prosperity of Ireland, than was done for centuries before." This may, however, amount after all to a stronger condemnation of preceding Governments, than a just ground for eulogy of the present. However, we will admit that several very beneficial reforms have been effected in Ireland. " The whole re venue system of Ireland has been reformed, and reformed in a manner that has given general sa tisfaction." With respect to the diminution of Taxation, and the reform in the administration of Justice, we know not very well what to say. We know that when a contrary course was followed with regard to Taxation, every fresh 'Tax dimi nished the produce of the Revenue. To take credit, therefore, for not levying more taxes from Ireland is something like the species of Li berty understood in Scotland, of " not taking the breeches from a Ilighlandman." The admi nistration of justice has, we fear, been very little improved in as far as the inferior Magistracy is concerned (though the Police is certainly an improvement); and what is more, we fear, so long as Chancellor Manners holds the Seals, the Magis tracy will never be much improved in character. So far we are willing to give praise to the Administra tion. But when Lord Liverpool talks of " these things as proofs of the kind, generous,and affection ate disposition of the Government of the United Kingdom to the people of Ireland, as proofs that they have been treated not with justice and fair ness merely, but with indulgence and favour," we would ask him what he means by people of Ireland ? If his Lordship pl a ces the Catholics in a state in which they cannot avail themselves of his boasted favours and indulgences, what be comes of this argument ? Let us put a case in point. Suppose the Negroes of Jamaica or Barbadoes were to c om pl a i n o f the hardship of their situation, in being subject to the caprice of the Whites, who have the making and admi nistering of the laws in their hands, for an abuse of the power possessed by thern---would it be any answer to these complainants, to tell them, that Gov ernment h a d b een e xceedingly kind and indulgent to Jamaica and Barbadoes, in imposing a lower duty on their produce than on that of the East Indies Let us put another case—let us kindly a claimant on hi s boun ty, and to make suPpose his Lordship to receive ,him a liberal present, having previously, however, stationed a person at his ;ate to extort forcibly this present from t h e i n di v id ua l as he passed, what would be thought of this indulgence and li berality ? And yet - this is precisely what his Lord ship does to the Catholics of Ireland. He gives to certain individuals the power of intercepting the favours said to be destined for them ; he enables these . individuals to wound their tenderest feel ings, to provoke them by oppression to the com mission of outrage and ; disorder, to render them unable to avail themselves of the bounty of na ture, and yet he wonders how it happens that they have not thriven under his kindness and in dulgence. We were glad, however, to see that his Lordship imputed " no especial blame to the Catholic Association, as distinguished from all similar bodies." He objects to all Societies so constituted. But this is likg'saying to a person with an issue, I have no objec tion to your issue as distinguished from others— Why, the issue would. not exist if the bod y were not internally diseased. When his Lordship, therefore, says, " Without reference to the Ca tholic Question —without reference to the ex pediency or inexpediency of giving to the Catho• Tics of Ireland privileges equal to those possessed by the Protestants, that this Association is an evil such as has never yet been permitted to exist, as such as ought never to be permitted to exist." Fine talking! If you refuse to do justice to the Catholics, if you allow an As cendancy to trample on them, the cause for Association. will exist, and associate they will most assuredly in some way or other effec tual to the purpose of obtaining by confederation what they cannot obtain individually. The As sociation itself is a decided indication of an un healthy state of the body r-r;litic—the removal of the symptoms, while the disease remains, is only most arrant quackery. If, however, his Lord; ship consent to the settlement of this everlasting Catholic Question, the law will never be re gretted, because without a law, the Association would in that case have died a natural death. !larch, whose ambition, we fear, exceeds the standard of common fame. By the same convey-. ance we learn that the passage of couriers through Berlin has been more frequent of late than had been known for a long time before ; and this circumstance, connected with the for mer, does not spew that the Russian Cabinet is so indifferent to our political relations with the New States of America as has been studiously represented. We wish it were otherwise, without however being over anxious about the results of a different course, this coun try being fully prepared to meet Russia, or any other Power, on terms . of friendship, if such be her gracious purpose ; or of hostility, should she like it better. This expressio❑ of our feel ing will be re-echoed, we are sure, by the whole community ; and the Russian Government may rest assured that it will not advance its views on this subject a single peg by using a tone of me nace towards this country. CHAIN-BRIDGE AT NORTH SHIELDS. On Wednesday, the 23d ult. a most numerous and highly respectable Meeting was held at the Northumberland Arms, North Shields, to consider of the propriety, and institute mea sures fir its accomplishment, of erecting a Chain Bridge over the Tyne between the towns of North and South Shields. An elegant model of the Union Bridge was exhibited on the table, and attracted much attention. About twelve o'clock, William Wright, Esq. was called to the chair, and the business of the meeting opened by the reading of the requisition, by which it was called. The " Plan and Report" of Captain Brown were then read by John Tinley, Esq. It was of considerable length, and after slightly noticing the erection of the first sus pension bridge, on the present plan, at Mill Wall, and of the Union Bridge over the Tweed, proceeded to make observations on the strength of wrought iron, of an inch square, of which 27 tons may be considered as the measure of strength. It then detailed the place, dimensions, strength, &c. of the proposed bridge, as stated last week. After the report had been read, Captain BROWN rose, and shortly addressed the meeting.— The report just read, he said, referred to a plan which he had contemplated on his•tirst survey of the river, but he had since learned that that plan had not been generally approved of, in consequence of its requiring one buttress or tower to be placed in nearly the centre of the river. The position of this tower, , so near the" In Sand," as was called, it was thought by many :would have a bad effect upon the navigation. lie was of a different opinion ; but as it did not become him to set his judg ment in opposition to those who felt interested in the naviga tion he hatl made a slight variation in his plan, and prepared a new drawing of a bridge of one principal arch supported by two buttresses (one just within low water mark on the north side, and the other similarly placed on the south side), and- ter minating at each end in an inclined platform, rising one foot in fourteen.—(An elegant drawing of this plan was here held up for general inspection, and was received with loud ap plause.)—The south buttresses would be not more than two u hundred and fifty feet from the shore, s that all fear for the navigation would he obviated. A bridge upon this plan, how ever, would exceed in expence the bridge he had at first suggested by 7,000/. the second buttress which it was now proposed to build in the river being considerably larger in size than the two small ones intended to have been placed on the banks. The height of the arch above high water was 116 feet; but it would most materially reduce the expence, it' this height could be reduced, as lie thought it might be, by an easy regulation. It was only for vessels of 32 keels of coals, of' which there were very few belonging to the port, that this height was required ; if these ships would adopt the regulation of having striking royal masts, which might easily be done, it would permit the height of the buttresses to be reduced se veral feet ; and as these constituted the principal expence, the saving hence arising would be considerable. Ile concluded by expressing his conviction of the practicability of the design.— This address was received with loud applause. SANDERSON ILDERTON, Esq. then proposed a set of reso lutions, which were seconded by W. Linskell, Esq. They were then read by Mr. Tinley. They were, in substance, expreSsive of the desirableness of a more ready .communication between the two towns—of the practicability of the proposed bridge— and of the determination to carry it into effect by a subscrip tion of 100,0001. in 1001. shares; they also pointed out the par ties whose approbation and support was to be solicited, and provided for the appointment of a Committee, and other matters of arrangement. Mr. TINLEY, after a short interval, rose and addressed the meetting, observing that it was not his intention to have ad dressed the meeting, for which he was not prepared, but as no one else seemed inclined to do so, he would offer a few remarks on the resolutions. Of the desirableness of a better commu nication between the towns, there could not be two opinions : it was as evident as the light of the sun. Though only sepa rated by a very short distance from South Shields, such was the interruption given to the communication with it, that it was a fact, that they knew less of the inhabitants of that town, than they did of those forty or fifty miles distant. Of the practicability of the proposed bridge, he must con fess that he was at one time sceptical, Ibr when he con templated the gigantic structure hung high in air, lie could not but entertain the greatest doubts. A more intimate acquaintance, however, with the subject, an at tentive examination of the plan and report, and the information derived from the communications of the ingenious proposer, had fully convinced him, that it was not only practicable, but of comparative easy attainment. With regard to the funds which it was proposed to invest in the erection, the utility of the struc ture, and the benefit it would prove to all classes, ought to be regarded, as well es the probability of its proving a source of profitable investment. In the latter point of view, however, alone he thought it deserving of consideration, as it was sure to yield 5 per cent. interest. To his knowledge, three indivi duals had offered to take the tolls for three years at 5,0001. per annum ; but such offer they were told by the ingenious projec tor, it would be unwise to accept, as being below the probable amount.—The subscribers at present were only to he called upon for one per cent. to defray expences, so that there was the certainty that no more than that would be required till the measure was certain of being carried into effect.—After some other observations, Mr. Tinley concluded amidst much applause. The resolutions were then put, and carried unanimously, Subscription papers being then produced, many shares were of subscribed for, to th e amount , we b e lieve, ofupwards 20,0001. Thanks being then vo t e d t o the Chairman, the Meeting broke up.—During the whole of the interest was manifest e d by th e persons assembled, sub ject of the bridge, a s t rong desire for its accomplishment evi dently pervading the wh o l e . proceedings lively IVhen completed, this bridge willcertainly grandest and most interesting objects in castle Chronicle.) theis be n one d_ (of the u. Accounts from Genoa state, that several false Bills of Exchange had found their way into that city, with forged names to them ; and what was rather singular, no discovery had been made as to how and whence they orig►nated. A Letter from Madrid, inserted in the Ham. burgh papers, says, that the Duke of WELLING- Toy had made a present to his friend General ALAVA, of a fine domaine worth '200,000 dollars, to indemnify him in some degree for the segues. tration of his own estates.

On the 3d instant, at St. Clement Danes, Thomas Hernial], E i e , s o , f yo tl u i e n g H es o t n d . a E u a g s i t i 2m l p a a te n a y s i c E e , d g to i e y J , e i s m q of Essex-wharf, Strand. [THE Tllll ES.] It appears that a correspondence had taken place between .Mr. Huskisson and his consti tuents on the subject of repealing the Assessed Taxes, at the time when the Right Hon. Gen tleman was directed to present two Petitions, having that object in view, from Liverpool.-- Mr. Huskisson being requested to support the prayer of the Petitions, assigns his reasons for declining the task. The House and Window duties are of high antiquity, he says—(like many other worthless families, we might add) — and much relief having been already given in the Assessed Taxes, it was time to attend to the imposts upon the industry and commerce of the country. We are far from disputing the importance of these considerations ; but yet there are circumstances in favour of those domestic Taxes which, we think, should have led to their repeal before most others.— First, they give a stranger a right to enter an Englishman's castle ; and next, by their total repeal, the intrusive agency employed in aug menting and collecting them would have been got rid of. We fear the love of patronage, or the imagined necessity of corruption, has had some weight in inducing Ministers to retain a remnant of the two taxes. However, of 527,649 persons liable to the house duty, the Chancellor of the Exchequer says that he releases 171,739. There will therefore remain still liable to the house duty 455,910 persons ; and of 973,867 paying the Window-tax, 635,936 being relieved, Lhe remaining payers will he 337,931. But it is evident that these will all he comprised,or nearly so, in the 455,910 persons will be charged with the House-tax. It being assumed, then, ac cording to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's calculation, that under 500,000 persons are still liable to the House and Window duties, it is worth the while to ascertain how many people, in the character of peepers, surveyors, collectors, and receivers, areemployed, and at what expence, to watch and collect the taxes from those 500,000. What proportion do the cats bear to the mice ? If patronage and undue influence were not the objects, we say that the House and Win dow duties would have been totally repealed. The taxes are kept up for the sake of the tax gatherers, and the people are thus doubly in jured in their purses and their constitutional rights. Besides, it is worth the while to attend to what Mr. Brougham said last night in the House of Cemmons—the removal of a tax from an object of luxury, or even of necessary consumption, does but serve as a pretext or an incentive to the .seller to raise the price : the purchaser gains but little. But the removal of the House and Window duty would be pure and immediate gain to those whom it was meant to relieve. If the occupier be the owner, he has an immediate advantage ; and the tenant, whether under lease or by the year, has also th e same .-- Na y, cases vet be allowingthat th e l an dl or d m i g h t i n some disposed to rai se hi s rent, he cou ld et not do it before the expiration of the term, and the tenant would have the interval allowed to turn himself round. We are sure, then, that if the people would but press forward properly and firm l y, t h e Chancellor of the Exchequer must g iv e up the residue of the odious taxes on 'Win dows and Houses. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] By the Hamburgh Mail of yesterday we learn that the Prussian Government has caused the statement to be formally contradicted, that a Prussian Consul has been appointed to Buenos Ayres. This contradiction is by 140 means unim portant at the present moment, as it chews the spirit in which that Power is disposed to treat the question of South American independence. Its promptitude in disavowing a connection of even a mere commercial character with the New States, supplies matter for grave reflection, as, at any other time, it would have probably let the report die away of itself. But it seems to have been afraid that it would commit itself by its silence, and was therefore anxious to se i ze the very first opp or t un i ty of paying this homage to the principl e s o f t h e Holy Alliance. In this sup position, if it be correct, we see the amazing influence whi c h t h e Emperor of exercises Russia over the Pru ss i an Government ; an d we also find ink a key t o t h e seut i m ents of that o- DIED.
