SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Whatever consequences may follow the entrance of Carlos into Spain, it must be owned that his departure has placed the Government of this country in a very awkward position with respect to the Spaniards. There can be no question that if we had not interfered, Rodil would not have soon given a good account of the Pretender ; and though our motive might have been most praiseworthy, before we took charge of Carlos, we ought to have asked ourselves what means we possessed for ensuring his safe custody. It may be quite true that no terms were made with him on his surrender ; but it is implied in the very act of claiming our interposition, that no advantage would be taken of it, tending to place us in a situation of difficulty with regard to the Spanish Govern ment. We trust that our own Government will view the escape of Carlos in the light of an affront, and that the vigour of our new Cabinet will be dis played in the prompt and e ff ec ti ve measures pur sued to punish it. It behoves us to counteract this attempt to prop up a tottering despotism, and to show the Northern Potentates, and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, that England will not be made the instrument of their designs to perpetuate tyranny in the Peninsula. The presence of Carlos in the North of Spain may only accelerate the destruction of his party, and thereby prove favourable to the Con stitutional cause. But should his appearance in Na varre lead to prolonged hostilities, it will not be easy for us to satisfy the world that our conduct in this af fair has been proper. In that case there is no doubt that we shall have been the cause of the waste of life and of treasure consequent on the continuance of the war. We have therefore incurred a very serious re sponsibility towards the Spaniards. Intentions ,in a case of this kind are not a sufficient justification. Oui intentions were, no doubt, very good ; but we are not entitled to display the goodness of our intentions at the expense of others. It was in our power to de cline all interference between Carlos and Rodil; but having once interfered, we were bound, as a matter of course, to take care that our interference should not place Carlos in a more advantageous position with re spect to his opponent, than he would otherwise have been in. If we chose to receive Carlos without exacting pledges from him that he should not re-appear in Spain, that was our affair ; but by the mere fact of receiving him we pledged our honour to the Spaniards that we should not let Carlos loose on them afterwards. To rescue him from his perilous position, and, by con veying him to this country, to give him facilities to enter that part . of the Peninsula in which alone a stand continued to be made for him, was the greatest service to Carlos which it was possible to render him. The liberal French Papers attach blame to more parties than one in this business. The Constitutionnel, for in stance, talks of the triple negligence of the Spanish Ambassador in London, of the English Ministry, who allowed Don Carlos to escape so quietly from his re treat, and of the French Ministry, who permitted him to traverse the whole of France, " without doubt," adds that Journal, " to give a second representation of the ridiculous and pitiable - drama of the Duchess de Berri." These reflections, as far as the Spanish Ambassador in London is concerned, are evidently unjust. His Ex cellency could not have taken a single step to prevent Don Carlos from leaving his retreat here, had he done so ever so publicly. With respect to the English Go vernment, the fault consisted in receiving, under pecu liar circumstances, a personage whom they could not secure. Carlos had committed no action against the English Government which could have warranted us in seizing his person, or placing him under restraint. The error, as we have said, consisted in consenting to receive Carlos at a time when he was on the point of falling into the hands of his opponent, without stipu lating that our hospitality should not be exercised in a way which might by possibility prove injurious to the Constitutional Spaniards. We repeat that the honour of the Government is in some sort compromised in the affair. We have by our interference rescued Carlos from his fate, and made ourselves the instruments of his re-appearance in the north of Spain. Independently therefore, of the interest we have in the tranquillity of the Peninsula as a member of the Quadruple Alliance, we are peculiarly bound to see that the Spaniards de rive no injury from our intervention. That the depar ture of Carlos was hastened by the prospect of a Tory Ministry, is extremelyprobable. We regret to say that the Tories have, throughout the struggle in the Penin sula, manifested a sympathy with despotism which re flects little honour on them. The Duke of Cumber land, and the Duke of Wellington, and Lord Aberdeen, and the other heads of that party, would lay England prostrate at the feet of the Holy Alliance, rather than witness the fruits of a Reform Government. Their sympathy with foreign despotism operat es , h owever, as a salutary warning to th eir countrymen at home, and only tends to confirm them in their opinion, that of all calamities the return of a Tory Government would be the greatest--if it were to be permanent.—Morning Chronicle. As the Morning . Herald has always advocated on principle, the propriety or rather necessity, of abolish ing that spe c i es o f t or t ure called military flogging, it is impossible to let pass without some notice a case of this kind reported in all the London Journals, which took place at half -past seven o'clock on Monday morn ing at the St. George-street Barracks, Charing-cross, upon a private of the Scotch Fusileer Guards, who were mustered for the occasion. This unfortunate man, it seems, was guilty of showing symptoms of in toxica.tion when on duty as a sentinel ; this is a most serious fault in any man, but more particularly offensive in it soldier on duty, and deserving the severest punishment That can be inflicted, short of the cruel and revengeful laceration of "the cat," which is evidently useless as a preventive to the practice of the low and vicious habit of drunkenness. From the frequency of those dis gusting inflictions for being drunk, it is evident that Hogging soldiers has not produced any reform whatever in their morals and manners ; and means, not charac terized by revolting cruelty, ought now to be fairly tried—not for a month or two, but for a proper length of time—to ascertain whether it may not be possible to substitute a rational and effective mode of pre venting or correcting ' those offences that would endanger the system of military discipline, to which those who adopt .a military life ought to submit with the most scrupulous exactness—and this obser vation applies as strictly to the officers as to the pri vate soldiers. Profligate habits, or insubordination should not be tolerated in either class, and yet we fear that distinctions are sometimes made that have a bad effect upon the morals of the army ; as, for instance, if a private knows that some of his superiors are given to drunkenness, gaming, and libertine practices, is he not likely to confound all ideas of moral government ? Not that we could for one instant think it right to overlook the misconduct of a soldier because his superior in rank might act improperly, for this would be subversive of all military government, and there would be an end to the army ; but what we maintain is that cruel, and of course, revolting punishments, never check the progress of crime or insubordination, and the very frequent floggings in the army prove the truth of our assertion. Why the freeborn soldiers of England should be the only persons in Europe sub jected to this debasing punishment, is a question that no brave man will undertake to answer ; all truly good officers deplore a practice that degrades the man below the negro slave, and places him on the level of the brute creation. This practice shows how very barbarous some of our notions still are, after all the pompous inanity we have heard spouted forth about the schoolmaster being abroad, and the march of in tellect I As to the particular instance which we have referred to, the particulars are too disgusting, or rather too horrid to be repeated. But as the Royal Academy will be placed in front of this place of executi on , t h e students w ill h ave a fine opportunity of studying the quivering, the agonized countenance and convulsive throes of the writhing sufferer very cheaply.—Morning Herald. In everything regarding Spain—even in the opinion formed of the moral character and intellectual acquire ments of the Prince destined to heal the wounds of hat unhappy country—it seems to have been the peculiar misfortune of Minister s to be completely mis taken or wilfully misled. Had this not been the case, they would never entered into so foul and das tardly a league as that which bears the name of the Quadripartite Treaty ;" a league formed with a view I to drive the lawful successor of Philip V. far from that kingdom which had just devolved upon him, and, by sanctioning a notorious fraud, defeat a constitutional settlement of the Crown made principally through British agency for the general peace of Europe. Instead of stopping to investigate the consequences likely to ensue to the interests of the Peninsula, if not to Europe, through an attempt 'not only to trample under foot the established laws and national prejudices of an ancient kingdom, but also to sacrifice our best allies to the restless spirit and political intrigues of France, the reckless Whigs coupled the retention of their own abused power with the introduction of revolutionary reforms in other countries, as if the existence of their own Go vernment depended upon the confusion which they were enabled to raise elsewhere. Consistently with that disgraceful system of calumny and misrepresenta tion, so remarkable in the Ministerial Prints, even without knowing the situation in which he was placed in Portugal, Don Carlos was held forth as a coward because he did not, with his consort and sons, cross the frontiers of a country guarded by the hired assas sins of 'his enemy ; and even so late as Saturday, the " authoritative " Courier asserted that "he goes forth to battle under the banners of the Inquisition . ." The first charge, we think, is sufficiently repelled by the spirited conduct of the Prince, who now commands the national army in Navarre ; and, if our contemporary derives his information of Charles V.'s future views and plans of government from a proclamation which some time ago appeared in the public prints, speaking of the re-establish ment of the Inquisition, and purporting to come from Don Carlos, we beg leave to assure him, on the best authority, that the paper in question was a fabrication, got up by the agents of the Christina Go vernment. Don Carlos de Bourbon, ere this justly styled Charles V., is known by those best acquainted with his real sentiments to be the enemy of revolution, but not of temperate reform. Proud of his nation's glory, and deeply interested in its happiness, he is anxious for the regeneration of Spain ; but he is also well convinced, both by reason and twenty-four years' experience, that for the attainment of so great an object the country must be tranquil and the people satisfied, which can only be done by the revival and gradual modification of its ancient institutions, the same under which Spain prospered, was powerful, and respected. As far as it has been ascertained, this is the real aim of the Prince who was so lately insulted by Lord Palmerston's Envoy, even before he set foot on the British shore. We, therefore, leave a dis cerning public to judge whether Charles V., beloved by the Spanish people, an upright man, and the chivalrous imitator of his illustrious ancestor, Philip V., is not a more suitable ally for England than the protegee of an Orleans, supported by men lost to the recollection of all national feeling, influenced by visionary theories, and intent only on the attainment of rank or the gratification of personal revenge. In addition to the statements contained in the Paris jour nals of Friday, and to the letter from Don Carlos, which we noticed in our impression of Saturday, to a distinguished individual in London (who, we think it necessary to state, is a Spaniard, in order to prevent any ingenious surmises of our acute Ministerial organs as to a communication with members of the Tory party on the part of the lawful Sovereign of Spain), an nouncing the arrival of Don Carlos in his dominions, we are now enabled to set that matter entirely at rest, if•any doubt should have existed in the minds of any but the discomfited Whigs, by publishing the procla mation issued by the King of Spain on the 12th of July. It is necessary to observe that this proclama tion is purely a military one, addressed to the army solely. It is expected that a proclamation will shortly be promulgated explaining to the Spanish people the political views of his Majesty Charles V.—Morning Post. This evening is fixed for the second reading of the Poor Law Amendment Bill in the House of Lords. We unhesitatingly declare that . during the interval which elapsed since the passing of this Bill through the House of Commons, we have carefully read every article which has appeared in the journals of our con temporaries, and have as carefully watched the proceed ings of the meetings which have been convened to op pose this great measure, and we are obliged to con fess that it is our opinion that no measure, introduced by a Ministry, desiring to benefit the country whose affairs they superintend, has before met with an oppo sition so unprincipled, with misrepresentation so inten tional, or been assailed with calumnies so unfounded and uncalled for, as this measure for lessening an evil universally acknowledged, and which, if allowed to pro gress as it has done for the last few years, will, in a short time, transfer the property in the soil from the hands of the landowner to those of the pauper. If we thought the comforts of the industrious or frugal pea sant were to be abridged ; if we thought the prospect of his obtaining employment would be lessened ; if we thought, in short, that the stimuli to virtue, industry, frugality, or sobriety would not be increased by the provisions of this Bill, we would op pose it. We would not advocate so great a c h ange , simply to maintain the present political state of things —we would not have supported it, did we not think, aye, did we not feel, a moral certainty, that the aboli tion of the system of paying half the wages of the la bourer out of the poor-rate ; the abolition of the scale and roundsmen systems ; the abolition of the system of compulsory relief to the idle and dissolute ; the abolition of that iniquitous system which offers pre miums to vice, immorality, and idleness--..we say, we would not have advocated this measure did we not think that, by the abolition of such systems, a most important boon would be conferred on the industrious classes, and consequently, that the whol e s t a t e o f so- ciety would be impioved, and the happiness of its in dividual members materially increased. Of what are the philanthropists of the present day complaining, but of the increase of the minor crimes, petty larcenies, frauds, &c. &c. ; and how great a proportion of these are caused by the system of granting relief without any regard to circumstances or character ? Th e idle- neSs which the present poor-laws encourage, and the crime consequent upon idleness, requires no no tice from us. We are convinced that the best and most rational mode of stopping the rapid in crease of crime in this country, is to lessen the induce ment to commit it, rather than to have a severe code of laws to punish it when committed ; and also, that the fear of punishment is not so powerful an inducement to honesty, as the constant exhibition of the advan- tages to be derived from industry and frugality, and the decrease of comfort and consequent wretchedness attendant upon vice, immorality, and laziness. If the relief to the poor had been administered as was con templated by the original framers of our Poor Laws, the contrast between industry and laziness would be apparent to every peasant. The industrious peasant, by the present laws afraid of losing his settlement, re mains in his parish, and contracts habits of idleness, where he could have comfortably supported himself, and this from circumstances over which he has no con- trol. He knows, _at the same time, that thousands are in the enjoyment of full wages who came from a coun try without Poor Laws, while he remains in distress, fearing that he may not be able, if once he leaves his native village, to receive relief in case of a tempprary want of work. From this difficulty he will be relieved by the new system of Poor taws. Wherever he goes in search of employment, should he not succeed in obtaining such employment, and be in temporary distress, he will be relieved ; and by this means, he will be able to ascertain where labour is required, and where it is redundant. This part of the Bill alone deserv es th e a tt en ti ve con- sideraiion of every working man. We hear of emi gration in every form. A large proportion of the emigrants carry to other countries some property, and often much industry. We encourage emigration to our colonies, and by our laws of settlement prevent the agricultural peasant from finding employment in our manufacturing towns, which, on the other hand, annually import thousands and thousands of Irish poor. Before we encourage the emigration of our industrious artizans, we ought to check, by the estab lishment of poor laws in Ireland, the importation of thousands from that country, where, fi mu causes which we cannot now stop to inquire into, the wages of the labourer are so low, and the mode of living so poor, that the low price at which the Irish are inclined to THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 21, 1834. work in England is constantly (the excess al ways regulating price) depreciating the value of the industry of our own artisans and peasantry, whose education and habits will not allow them at once to descend to the same level. We say, then, that this bill allowing a free transfer of labour from the agricultural districts, where labour is superabundant, to those where there is a demand for it, is releasing the industrious classes from a clog which for years has cramped their energies, and caused a large portion of their present distress. Now really we cannot for one moment think that the intelligence of this country can be led by the violent writing of any journal or set of journals, to oppose this measure. We are sure that the House of Lords, which is composed of the largest landed proprietors in the kingdom will not oppose it. We ha ve a l rea d y t h e d ec l ara tions of many of the most distinguished members of that House in its favour ; and we are assured it will pass through the committee with the most trifling alterations. They cannot be influenced by the party zeal which leads one portion of the press to abuse it, nor by the personal animosities which have induced others to oppose it. They have often, unfortunately we think, proved how firmly they can adhere to the principles they profess, and we are sure the examination of the evidence on which this measure has been founded, and which no Noble Lord can pretend has not been long enough before the House and the country, must induce every one to support the great and leading principles of the Bill, although there may be a difference of opinion upon some of its details. We are, we believe, the only 'Journal which has methodically examined the Bill, and compared the evidence upon which it was founded, with the various clauses and provisions it con tains. Not one clause, or altered clause, has escaped us ; there is not a principle which has not been ex amined with reference to the existing state of things ; and although, perhaps, our humble efforts may not have fallen into the hands of many Noble Lords, we are sure, and in this we rejoice, that we have been the means, by the calmness and impartiality with which we have examin :!le Bill, of inducing the reasonable part of the public to examine the subject for ,themselves, and to obtain information on the present state of our poor laws, and have thus prevented their being misled by reiterated misrepresentations, and by conclusions, daily placed before them, which have been arrived at rather by the workings of heated imaginations than by an examination into the merits of the case. We now wait patiently the issue of the debate in the House of Lords. We are confident as to the result, because, anxious for a little popularity as many of the Noble Lords certainly are, we feel sure that that House will not risk its reputation with an immense majority of the country, for the paltry and fleeting praise of that por tion of the daily Press which appears to be guided in its conduct by any principles but those which ought to induce it to support measures, brought forward by what ever party, which can have no other object than to benefit the most numerous portion of the population of the empire. —Morning Advertiser. The Lord Chancellor is to move to-night in the House of Lords the second reading of the bill which is so ridiculously miscalled " The Poor Laws' Amend ment Bill." This noble personage formerly acquired the reputation, the praise, and the glory, of being a friend to the constitution, and one who, albeit desirous of advancing, would move only in its ancient ways--a pertinacious stickler for the rights and liberties of the people—an ardent and a hearty hater of patronage—a jealous and a watchful controller of the prerogative of the Crown, and, above all, an unbending, indefatigable, sincere, and conscientious advocate and protector of the poor.. In bringing forward the Poor Laws' Bill, in how different a character does he appear I Even the hon. member whom he described the other night as almost leading on anti-Corn Law mobs against the mi nistry in 1815, and now in 1834 as found advocating the retention of the corn monopoly, has not undergone so thorough a metamorphose as that to which the noble and learned Lord has subjected himself. All the bitter sarcasms, the searching sneers, the cleaving and stick ing soubriquets, which Lord Brougham has bestowed upon the inconsistencies, and shiftings, and changes of others, will, we fear, now redound upon him self with new and accumulated force. We say this more in sorrow than in anger ; but the sooner the noble and learned Lord is awakened to a sense of the perils that threaten him in the new ways into which lie has diverged, the greater chance there will be of his retracing his steps, and of retracing them in time. Let him, however, bear in mind— facilis descensus Averni * * * * * * * Sed revocare gradum, superasque evadere ad auras, Hic opus, hic labor est." It has ever been the theory of the constitution o his State, and, in the main, the doctrine has been * * followed out in practice, that the people should, as much as possible, govern themselves, and regulate their own affairs ; and it would be difficult to point out a supporter of popular rights more constant or more vehement than Lord Brougham used to be in the maintenance of the principle that the people can be taxed only by their representatives in Parliament. In our social condition, the rankest and the most tyran nical of Tory Administrations never disputed or in vaded these positions. This piece of wantonness and absurdity has been reserved for " an assemblage ground down into pure old Whigs." The Tories left us our municipal and provincial govtrnments, our county courts, and our corporations, the protection of the magistracy and of other district and • local autho rities, our grand juries, our parish vestries, and the like ; but it is hardly to be hoped, and most assuredly it is not to be expected, that any of these ancient fea tures of our social and domestic economy will long remain to use if the chief persons of our Government be affected with the centralization mania ; nor do we see the slightest reason to believe that the liberties and the property of the King's subjects are worth one single year s purchase, if the Legislature shall lend their sanction to a measure which is to place the per sons and the pockets of all the inhabitants of England and Wales at the disposal and control of three novel and irresponsible functionaries. Such a measure is this beloved Bill of the Lord Chancellor, and although it extends only to matters connected with the relief of the poor, yet nothing can be more clear than that it will furnish a - precedent for any act of ty ranny and spoliation, any violation of the liberty of the subject, and any infringement on the rights of pro perty, which, in time to come, another Ministry may be base and bold enough to attempt.—Tintes. SECOND EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, THIS EVENING. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER resumed the chair at 25 minutes past five o'clock. WEXFORD ELECTION. The SPEAKER announced that he had received a petition from Wexford, complaining of an undue return. On the motion of Mr. RUTHVEN, the Port Crommelin Harbour Bill was read a third time and passed. Lord HOWICK brought up the annual report of the Inland Navigation in Ireland. The Noble Lord then moved for copies of any correspondence that had taken place between the Secretary of State for the Colonies and the Commissioners of Emigration. OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH. Mr. POULTER gave notice that, next Session, he would bring in a Bill for the better observance of the Sabbath.._. (Hear, and much laughter.) The LORD ADVOCATE moved the second reading of the amendments to the Roman Catholic ( Scotland) Mar riages Bill. Mr. G 0 ULB URN presented various petitions from Lan cashire, Devonshire, and Kent, in support of the Established Chat ch. down a sum, of money (5001.) to insure the return of a reform candidate for Colchester. Lord Western stated that the ob ject was to insure the return of Mr. Mayhew. Mr. Mayhew and Mr. Harvey stood upon the same interest, but were most violently hostile to each other. They were both reform can didates. (LEFT SITTING.) HOUSE OF LORDS. Mr. TOOKE and other Members of the House of Commons brought up the Chimney Sweeper's Regulation Bill. Irgreed to without any amendments. GAME LAWS. The Marquis of BRE AD ALB ANE presented petitions from the owners and occupiers of land in Perth and Clackmannan, complaining of their crops being destroyed by the large quan tities of game t h at were preserved, and praying Parliament to give - them liberty to shoot or destroy them. ESTABLISHED CHURCH. Lord SKE LME RSD ALE presented petitions from North wich for the support of the Established Church. The Bishop of EXETER presented similar petitions from different parts of his diocese. Similar petitions were also presented by Lord Kenyon and the Bishops of Gloucester and Derry. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY would take that opportunity of calling the attention of the House to the state of the question • with respect to the Established Church, in order, if possible, to ascertain what course his Majesty's ad visers intended to pursue with respect to the Established Church. During the time the Noble Earl opposite was at the head of the Administration, he had stated that it was his determi nation to uphold the Established Church, but mea sures were introduced by that Noble Earl, which frittered down the support of the Church. Since the Noble Earl retired, nothing had been done, and he therefore felt himself called upon to ask Ministers what their determinations were, and whether the Members of the Government were united upon that subject. (Hear.) He thought it was but due to the House, that Ministers should make a strict declaration of what their intentions were, especially as there was a wide differ ence between two Cabinet Ministers. He would ask the Noble Marquis opposite (Lansdowne,) whether he had been mistaken by an Honourable Member of the other House, or whether what he had stated was his impression ? Upon no question did they get up to state their opinions but they were invariably rebutted, either by their colleagues or their measures. The Noble Marquis :then read an abstract from a speech delivered by Lord Melbourne upon the Irish Church ; when he was called to order by Viscount MELBOURNE, who rose to order. The Noble Earl was, he believed, reading from the newspapers that which purported to be a report of a speech of his, and for the purpose of contesting it with a speech delivered by an Hon. Gentleman in the other , House, and that also got from the same source.—( Hear, hear.) He believed that was a source that was utterly inconsistent with the rules of the House —at all events it was certain to throw great impediments in the way of public business—neither was it proper that any Noble Lord should be called upon to explain anything that had fallen from a Member of the other House which might appear inconsistent with his own speech. The Earl of WICKLOW said he wished to say a few words upon the point of order—he entirely differed with; the Noble Viscount upon that quostion.—( Hear, hear.) It might be against the rules of the House, but by being constantly practised, it had become quite usual to refer to reports of speeches from the newspapers. That was the first occasion upon which the Noble Viscount had been called upon to address himself to the orders of the House in his new capacity,—(Hear,) —and he trusted that that was an earrest that they would be better protected in future.--( Hear. ) The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought it was a very good specimen of what the House was to expect from the im partiality of the Noble Viscount.—( Hear.) If he would look a little to the right, he would see a Noble Earl ( Grey) who, upon a very late occasion, had taken out of his pocket and used the newspaper report of what fell from an Hon. Baronet in the other House. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE—Do you intend to make • a motion ? The Marquis of, L OND ONDE RR Y—Yes.., The Noble Marquis then read., an abstract from the speech of Mr. Ellice upon the Irish Church question, and continued that was the statement of a colleague of the Noble Viscount, and he called upon their Lordships to contrast it with the one they had heard from the Noble Viscount ; and he would further ask the Government whether it was in reality their intention to appropriate the surplus funds of the Church to secular pur poses ; he, as an > Irishman, had a right to be made aware of their intentions upon the subject.--( The Noble Marquis then sat down amidst loud cries of " Move, move.") The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said, that when the No ble Earl (Vane) had gone into a lengthened statement, which was altogether fouuded upon newspaper reports, of what took place in the other House, he took the liberty of asking him whether he intended to conclude with a motion.—( Con fusion.) He was speaking to the orders of the House, and he called upon the Noble Earl to state whether he had not most distinctly answered in the affirmative ? The Marquis of LONDONDERRY interruptin—l was speaking upon a petition, which I had a perfect right to do. The objection of the Noble Marquis is most trifling, for he knows how easy it would be for me to move an adjournment of the House—it is a course unworthy of him and of the station he occupies—( Order, order.) The Marquis of LANSDOWNE—The Noble Earl may say what he pleases, but he most certainly gave the answer. The Noble Marquis was again interrupted by The Marquis of LONDONDE RR Y— I beg to say the Noble Marquis must have misunderstood me..--(Loud cries of no, no.) The Marquis of LANSDOWNE—If the Noble Earl said he misunderstood him, he (the Marquis of Lansdowne) would not say that he had not. He had certainly asked the Noble Earl whether he intended to make a motion, and he had the recollection of the House that the answer made to that ques tion was " Yes."—( Hear, hear.) Lord KENYON hoped the Noble Marquis would excuse him, but he must say that he did not think the Noble Earl had made such an answer. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said it was not his in tention to state :that the Noble Earl had intended to deceive him. It was undoubtedly Competent for the Noble Earl to make a speech on the motion that the petition do lie on the table, but the Noble Earl had chosen to indulge himself in giving vent to his feelings, and making observations on a newspaper report--an incorrect newspaper report, for he had heard enough of that which the Noble Earl had read to be assured that it Was an incorrect report of what he on a former occasion had stated in that House, for the purpose of contrasting it with another newspaper report. And this was done, not merely in illustration of an argument then in debate, but for the purpose of arbitrarily calling upon a Member of their Lordships House, no question connected with the subject being before the House, not only to say what he had spoken but what he now thought, and not only what he now thought, but what at some future time he intended to do—( Hear, hear)—a course more inconsistem with the ordinary convenience and habits of their Lordships could not be proceeded with. Although the Noble Earl might indulge his own taste by such a course, but he (the Marquis of Lansdowne) should not be induced to copy the Noble Earl by entering into any statement upon that subject. —(Hear, hear.) The Noble Earl, if he had thought fit, tolshovv upon newspaper reports what his opinion was upon the subject to which he alluded might have referred to a subsequent debate, and a subsequent discustion in which he had distinctly stated the view upon . which he supported the very commission to which the Noble Earl had alluded. Having once, stated his opinion as to that commission, and the grounds upon which it was issued in that House, and stated that he reserved to himself the liberty of considering what those measures should be in consequence of that commission, which, after a full enquiry, might be propounded to thei r Lordships, he should not b e induced either at this time or any other, by any statemeut which the Noble Earl might think fit to make, enter upon a discussion which he knew would be premature and inconve nient—(Loud cheers )'—and for the inconvenience of which he presumed he had the authority of the Noble Earl himself, because although the Noble Earl had stated that he wished some such discussion had been originated in that House, he (the Noble Earl) had himself had ample oppor tunity to originate that discussion, and he now stated, that if the Noble Earl entertained the views regarding the commission which he had intimated that night he did entertain, he had not discharged his duty in making that Commission the sub ject of discussion.--( Cheers.) He should be prepared to meet him when the discussion came regularly before the House, but until the Noble Earl was prepared to discharge that duty from which he shrunk he should not be induced to enter into an Ly premature statement or discussion. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said that the Noble Marquis had accused him of shrinking from his duty. Lord MULGR AVE rose to order.—Whatever doubt there might have been whether the Noble Marquis was out of order before, there could be none now.—( Cries of " Order.") The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said he rose to ex plain—( Great confusion and cries of " Order.") He did not originate a motion upon this subject because he hoped some other Noble Lord, more competent to the task, would have done so—( Repeated cries of " Order," amidst which several Peers rose to address the House, but gave way to Lord ELDON, who said he considered himself in bounden duty to state that, in his opinion, the Noble Marquis (Lon donderry) was out of order.._( Hear, hear.) The LORD CHANCELLOR said he wished to address one word to the Noble Marquis and their Lordships. He did not in the loast degree dispute the right of the Noble Marquis, in any discussion, however important, to originate a motion if he chose, but he appealed to their Lordships, on behalf of an im portant subject. He (the Lord Chancellor) had undertaken to perform a serious task, and to bring forward a most difficult, complicated, and extensive measure. The discussion of that important and extensive measure required the greatest calm ness, and the absence of all party animosity.—( Hear, hear.) If he found their Lordships disposed to go on whetting themselves with this sort of animosity, it would be his duty to this most important measure to crave permission to put off the discussion of it. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said he would be the last person to interfere in the business of the House. It was a little hard, however, to prevent him from addressing their Lordships to explain some circumstances which had been alluded to by the Noble Marquis opposite. __(Lansdowne.) The LORD CHANCELLOR begged the Noble Mar quiss's pardon. He had not the slightest notion that the Noble Marquis was going to explain, but understood that the Noble Marquis was about to originate a motion. The petition was then laid on-the table. MR. D. W. HARVEY'S CASE. Mr. O'CONNELL moved that the Inns of Court Commit tee have leave to report from time to time. The Honourable and Learned Member then brought up a Report, which he handed to the clerk, who announced it as the report of the Committee upon Church patronage in Scotland.—( Laughter.) Mr. WYNN said that it was very desirable that the Right Hon. the Secretary at War should be in his place previous to the report being read. Lord ALTHORP said that he had not seen the Right lion. Gentleman that day (as we understood him.) The CLERK then proceeded to read the evidence of Lord Western, which the Committee deemed it their duty to bring at once to the knowledge of the House. The substance of the evidenc , . was, that Lord Western had written to Mr. Ellice, .7- being connected with the Treasury, to send , Lord KENYON presented a petition from St. Pancras, against the Poor Laws Amendment Bill. BREACH OF PRIVILEGE. The Earl of LIMERICK rose to compl4in of a gross mis representation that had been made in another place by a learned person,.of his character and acts. In doing so, he could assure the Noble Lord on the Woolsack that he had no wish to interfere with the important measure of which he was that night to move the second reading.—( Hear, hear.) He should be very short, but he felt it due to himself that he should bring the subject before their Lordships. The system that had lately been adopted of denouncing— (for he could call it by no:other name)—individuals by name in great public assemblies, was new in the annals of the coun try, and ought to be condemned. Eorl GREY rose to order. He thought it impossihle the House could entertain the complaint of the Noble Earl. If he understood that complaint rightly, it related to something that had been said in the House of Commons. If such were the case, it was impos s ibl e f or t h at House to entertain it. If it had appeared in any publication, the Noble Earl might then complain of it as a breach of privilege, but if it was a statement made in the House of Commons, that House had nothing to do with it. The Earl of . LIMERICK said that he had purposely avoided speaking of the House of Commons, but he would now say that in the House of Commons denunciations had been made against individuals in the other House, which might soon tend to the abolition of the House of Lords, and the overturning the throne. He had read in a newspaper that he had been denonnced as having depopulated a consider able track of country, and driven 200 families from their farms. (LEFT SITTING.) SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, JULY 19.—We learn by letters received from the river Gambia, dated 7 June 6, that the /Et na surveying vessel, Commander Arlett (acting), had returned there from surveying the river Cacheo ; that, after accurately ascertain ing some of the head-lands between that river and the gut of Gibraltar, she would return to England t o re fi t , h av i ng i n charge the Matilda, of London. This brig had been freighted to convey 100 volunteer seamen for the Brazilian navy to Rio Janeiro, who, when they had reached near to the coast of Africa, mutinied and refused to prosecute the voyage. The Captain, from necessity, put into Goree as the nearest port, and sought protection from the French flag for his personal safety and that of the brig and cargo. From that port a French sloop-of-war was sent to protect her to the Gambia, where she was given up to Commander Arlett, of the /Etna. The crew of the /Etna had been reduced by the loss of 16 of her crew by casual illness during her service of surveying.— She may be daily expected to arrive. The Malabar, 74, Captain Marsham, which arrived at Plymouth yesterday se'nnight, left Napoli di Romania on the 2d ult., in company with the squadron under Sir Josias Rowley, from which she and the Alfred parted company the next day, the other ships being ordered to resume their summer station at Vourla. All was tranquillity at Napoli. Sir Josias Rowley was present at the ceremony of presenting a set of colours to a newly-raised regiment on the Ist ult., The' Malabar and Alfred arrived at Malta on the Bth ult., and sailed again on the 12th, leaving there only the Ceylon, with the flag of Rear- Admiral Superintendent Sir T. Briggs. The Malabar reached Gibraltar on the 26th, but, in consequence of the cholera being prevalent, she did not communicate with the shore, only re ceiving dispatches thence. Fourteen deaths had recently oc curred. The Canopus left Gibraltar on the 6th, and the Tyne on the 7th, to join the squadron. The Lulworth cutter yacht, of 127 tons, was lately sold by Joseph Wild, Esq., to an unknown party, and delivered over to Captain Mingaye, who sailed some weeks since on a secret service, we believe, of a political nature. The Alfred, 50, Captain Maunsell, arrived at Chatham on Wednesday last from the Mediterranean, to be paid off. She, as well as the Asia, will be paid off all standing, and imme diately re-commissioned. When the last accounts left Rio (22d May), a decree was under discussion in the Chamber of Deputies, prohibiting the ex-Emperor (the Duke of Braganza) from residing in any part of the Brazils, even as a foreigner and in a private capa city, under pain of being treated as an enemy to the State. On Sunday the Marquis of Hastings sailed for the Cape of Good Hope and Bombay. Mr. Field (late of our Customs), promoted to be Collector of the Customs at Simon's Town, his wife, and five children, went passengers. On Tuesday the Malabar, for the Cape and Bombay ; Norfolk, with convicts, for Sydney; and the Morley, for Ceylon, also proceeded on their voyage:.. The Melville, 74 ( Sir J. Gore), left Bombay Bth March, for Madras. The Imogene, 28 ( Captain Hart acting), was daily expected, and to follow, to Madras. The Comus left Halifax June 16, for Newfoundland ; the Victor, from Pictou, on a cruise. The Sparrowhawk, 16, was at Bahia on the Ist June. The Isis, 52, ( Captain Polkinghorne with the flag of Rear- Admiral Warren), and the Trinculo, 10, Corn. Warren (act ing), were at the Cape of Good Hope on the 29th May, hav ing arrived a few days previously from a nine months' cruise on the western coast of Africa, for the suppression of slave trading. The Salamander steamer, Commander Castles, came in from Jersey on Tuesday, having conveyed to that island the body of Mr. de Saumarez. She proceeded to Woolwich.

M`Kellar, to be Ad jutant at Portsmouth. The 99th company for Chatham, the 102 d from Portsmouth, and the 97th from Plymouth, have been ordered to be transferred to the Woolwich division, to increase the strength in that quarter. PROGRESS OF DRESS.—To describe the progress of dress in England would require a volume. It is a curious fact, that as Henry VIII. increased in size, the clothes of his courtiers were often stuffed to make them resemble him I The custom appears to have descended even to domestics, and is still partly commemorated in the habits of the yeomen of the guard. The farthingale, or large hooped petticoat, was brought from Spain under Queen Mary. With Elizabeth, it should be remarked, that ruffs of plaited linen round the neck and wrists were much worn. Until the invention of starch, they were supported out by pieces of ivory ; but about this period the art of starching was brought from Flanders ; and in 1564, the wife of Guillim Boenen starched for the whole court. The beards m ere then trimmed to a point, hanging down at the division of the ruff. In the time of Charles I. the hair was worn longer, and the mouth was in the centre of a triangle formed by the mustachios and pointed beard.
