The King gave a State Dinner in the evening at St. James's to the Knights of the Most Noble Order of St. George or the Garter. The Great Officers of State, the Officers of the Royal Household, and the Officers of the Order were also present. The whole of the company came in full costume, the knights of the Order wearing the Collar and Star, and the members of other Orders of Knighthood wearing their re spective Collars (it being the anniversary of St. George, the Patron Saint of the Order of the Garter. The guests assembled in one of the State Rooms (Ten Anne's Room). Ile Majesty, who was habited in a military uniform, and \vtre the Collar and Star of the Order, led the way to the tanquetting-Room, where the dinner was served about eight o'clock. The King was preceded by the Comptroller and the Treasurer of the Household, the Vice-Chamber lain, and the Lord Steward. _ . . 'their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Cumberland and Gloucester, the Marquis of Camden, and the Knights of the Order; the Groom of the Stole and the other guests followed. _ _ The party passed through the Portrait Gallery, which was lined by a party of the Yeomen of the Guard, under the command of Mr. Pearson,the Exon in Waiting. The appearance of the banquet was most splendid. The table at which the Knights dined was covered with a splendid service of gold and silver plate, including several magnifi cent centre pieces and candelabra. In the middle of the table opposite to where the King satwas one of the largest ( sil vergilt)centre pieces in the King's collection, it being about five feet high; the upper compartment contains a representa tion of St. Georgevanquishing the dragon in the finestpos sible relief, the top branching out into twelve receptacles for lights. The lower division presented at the different sides figures representing England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. The shaft of this division is enriched and encir cled with acanthus leaves. The base of the second division has a border of acorns and oak leaves. The sideboard ex hibited some of the choicest articles of the royal service, which were tastefully arranged by the architect, Mr. J. C. Mead, so as to give full relief to the principal objects of vertu. The principal object on the sideboard was Flax man's shield of Achilles, having for a background the royal standard and the Union Jack, and surrounded by salvers having sculptured on them the triumph of Bacchus and Ariadne, the Feast of the Gods, &c., &c. The apex of the sideboard was formed by a large star, the centre of which contained the arms of England, encircled with the collar of the Garter, the radii formed by ornaments in the style of Louis XVI., the whole surmountedby the imperial crown. At the base of the sideboard were a great number of vases, cups, tankards, and other small articles of plate, including the national or St. George's Cup, enriched with precious stones. In one of the upper compartments of the sideboard was a very ma, ? ,, nificent silver-gilt vase, having carvings in ivory, by Flamingo, introduced. The back ground of the whole was composed of rich crimson draperit s. There were present the following Knights of the Or der :—Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Cumberland and Gloucester ; the Marquis Cambden, the Duke of Rutland, the Duke of Beaufort, the Duke of Newcastle, the Duke of Wellington, the Marquis of Bath, the Duke of Dorset, the Marquis of Exeter, the Duke of Richmond, and Earl Grey. Officers of the Order :—The Prelate, the Registrar, Sir Ralph Bigland, Garter King of Arms; and Sir Augustus Clifford, Usher of the Black Rod. The following were also present •—The Lord Steward, the Groom of the Stole, the Master of the Horse, the Vice-Chamberlain, the Captain of the Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms, the Master of the Horse to the Queen, the Master of the King's Buck Hounds, Gold Stick in Waiting, the Treasurer of the Household, the Comptroller of the Household, the Captain of the Yeo men Guard, the principal Aide-de-Camp to the King, the Keeper of the Privy Purse, the Master of the Robes, the Master of the Household, the Lord and Groom in Waiting, the Equerry in Waiting, and Clarencieux King of Arms. The band of the Coldstream Regiment of Foot Guards played " God save the King," as the company passed down the Portrait Gallery to the Banquetting Room ; and in the course of the evening performed, in an anti-room, the overture to Gustavus, a march from The Templar, and other pieces. _ r e 14 - l ib tr ---,St -M)t ' 1,/tl/2i,t' , ...' - i- ,- .1,,v, T _ ''''''' 4 , _ill • ~,. ..--,...,...::-"'"- ~44, -- _- . _..A •...4 GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. Since our last notice, the committee of the House of Commons has been actively engaged in inquiring into va rious interesting particulars connected with the western trade and agriculture of the kingdom, which all the wit nesses agreed would be greatly benefitted by railways be tween Bath and Bristol, and London and Reading. It appeared (which had formerly been denied) that the Li verpool and Manchester railway derived a profit from the carriage of goods, the profits of last year being, on that head, 23,6951., and on the conveyance of coal, (also stated fo be profitless) out of a receipt of 2,5911., as much as 1,836/. was clear profit. Many witnesses from the clothing districts of the west, stated that the railway would be of great benefit to them in the conveyance of wools and cloths, and would enable them to export from Bristol to Ireland and New York. Coals, it seems, can be obtained at Bristol in great abundance, at ss. 6d. per ton. Very interesting evidence was given as to the advantages which the farmer and landowner would derive from the convey ance of their cattle without fatigue, from the cheap con veyance of manure, and from the opening of new and dis tant markets for their produce. The advantages to be de rived by the metropolis appear to be great and certain— the opening of new markets for her goods, and for Baltic and other eastern and northern produce, and from a cheaper, better, and more abundant supply of food. The driving of cattle and pigs was proved to be highly injurious, throwing them into fevers, dimi nishing their weight, andcausing a great number of deaths. As a proof of the pernicious effects of driving, it was stated thlt country-killed meat brought a higher price by Id. per lb. than the meat from Smithfield-market. If the railway was established, it would be a great boon to the working-man, from the vast quantity of pigs, cattle, poul try, &c., which would flow in at a cheap rate from Ireland. Eggs, butter, and cheese are now imported in large quan tities from the continent for London consumption, which, it was proved, could, by means of the proposed railway, bring better articles at a cheaper rate from our own pro ducers in the West, and in Ireland. The evidence appears to have made a considerable impression on several of the committee, who were supposed to be previously sceptical as to the immense advantages which would accrue to trade, agriculture, and commerce, when the work shall have been completed. LONDON AND GREENWICH RAILROAD. — It appears that it will require 20,0001. per annum to pay the shareholders 5 per cent. on the amount of capital, which is 400,0001. It also appears that the Creek Bridge, which unites the most unfrequented parts of Greenwich and Deptford, returns, from pas sengers paying Id. each, 2,0001. per annum ; there fore, let us look at this new road merely as a footpath, which will shorten the distance nearly two miles, and reduce it to a pleasant walk between two populous places, of one million and a half, and e i g h ty t h ousan d at the other, and admit that twenty times as many as now cross the Creek Bridge would avail themselves of it, and also pay Id. each, it would amount to 40,000/. per annum, or 10 per cent. to the shareholders, ex clusive of the revenue, should the com pany apporti on their width of ground of 75 feet in the following manner :-25 feet for the railway, 25 for the esplanade for foot pass:., era, and 25 for a common carriage or horse road.' LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 24, 1834. Mr. O'CONNELL, who entertains a well bred horror of any such tradesmanlike vulgarity as a fact or a calculation, must have been sadly annoyed last night by the vast array of those very plebeian weapons which Mr. SPRING RICE brought to bear against him. Like a bull in a china-shop, the Right Hon. Secretary to the Treasury made grievous havoc with the Agi tator's glittering, bazaar-like show of rhetoric, tossing, here a trope and there a metaphor— now annihilating an hypothesis, and now a deduction, in a way that will make Mr. O'CONNELL cautious how he ventures to put 1 forth such brittle wares in future. Indeed, we never read a more triumphant reply than that of Mr. SPRING RICE. It was equally successful, whether looked on as an appeal to the under standing, or the feelings. There was no sophistry—no begging of the question— no 'tricky equivocation- 7 -all was plain and above-board. The common sense of the house went with him at every step of his progress, and even ,shot a-head of him, when, at the close of his luminous and convincing speech, he descanted on the increas ing prosperity of Ireland, and the mischief that would infallibly accrue to the empire from a repeal of the union. A repeal of the union indeed ! We have no patience with the term. It is a synonym for the rankest absurdity, and could have been hatched no where but in the skull of some crack-brained fanatic or scheming adventurer. If repeal be so indispensable, as Mr. O'CON NELL would have us believe, to the welfare of Ireland, why did he not prove his hy pothesis ? No one, even on his own show ing, has studied the question more profoundly than he has done. During the whole of last autumn, while the rent was collecting for him in every quarter of Ireland, he was shut up at Darrinane studying it in all its bearings. This was invariably his excuse for non-attendance at public dinners or meetings. He was studying repeal, and could not be disturbed. And what has been the result of all this meditation ? Why, a verification of the old adage " Much ado about nothing !" In a word, the moun tain has brought forth a mouse—and this after keeping all Ireland in the agonies of suspense for the best part of a year ! If such be the failure of the head, what will be that of the tail ? The question affords room for much curious speculation. O'CONNELL having already plunged into an abyss deeper than ever plummet sounded, how much lower may FERGUS O'CONNOR be expected to sink ? If he go head foremost, as his great leader has done, the specific force of gravita tion will infallibly conduct him to the bottom— and really it is a great thing in these times, when there is so much competition that way, for a gentleman to be enabled to say that he has sounded the very lowest depths of ab surdity. Some persons, we know, who are intimately acquainted with the specific weight of both honourable members' skulls, calculate on Mr. R UTHVEN outstripping Mr. 0' C o NNOR in his plunge. But we have no apprehensions on this score. FERGUS is our favourite. We will venture odds that he dives to a depth unknown to the most expert practitioner in the Dunciad. It is not, perhaps, quite fair to in dulge in these sort of anticipations, but really the whole question is so extremely absurd, that anything like serious argument is thrown away upon it. We take for granted that Mr. RICE'S masterly speech, conjointly with the amendment which he moved, for an address to his MAJESTY, re cording in the most solemn manner the fixed determination of the house to maintain undis turbed the legislative union between Great Bri tain and Ireland, will have the effect of crush ing repeal for ever. True, the question may still linger on—still afford a handle for faction and discontent in Ireland—but here in England it will henceforth be virtually dead. To this most desirable dissolution Mr. O'CONNELL has him self in no slight degree contributed. His dull ness has " scotched" the snake. Mr. RICE'S energy has " killed" it. The news in the French, Brussels, and Ger man Papers, may be given in a few lines. The late insurrections at Lyons and Brus sels are now said to have been the result of an extensive conspiracy. The law relative to fo reign refugees has passed the Chamber of Peers. Arrests are frequent, and several editors of newspapers appear to be implicated in the late disgraceful and afflicting proceedings. The Funds on Tuesday were declining. Reports were in circulation that the Government intended to contract for a loan of ten millions sterling. The Austrian Ambassador at the Court of Spain passed through Aix on the 10th inst., on his way to Nice. The Brussels papers of the 22d and 23d are chiefly filled with accounts of the arrests or banishment of numerous individuals concerned in the late disturbances. Some have been removed, and others have not yet obeyed the orders of the government to quit the kingdom. The two Chambers met on the 23d. M. RoGIER made a report in the Chamber of Representatives of the events of the sth and 6th April. M. LEBEAU, Minister of Justice, justified the expulsion of strangers, who had made themselves the organs of the Orange party, and others the agents of the Propaganda. It appears, from a letter from Antwerp, that I the local tribunal there had declared the order for the expulsion of M. KRUMER, merchant, illegal. A new financial operation is spoken of at Berlin, by which an annual saving of nearly a quarter million of rix-dollars will be effected. They write from Vienna that as nothing is heard of a new loan the funds continue to rise. Accounts had been received from Gi braltar that the Polish refugees, who were embarked at Trieste, in Austrian ships, to be conveyed to America, attempted to over power the crew, and take the ship where they pleased ; they chose the 12th of February, the anniversary of the EMPEROR'S fete. The ships were at anchor in the Bay of Gibraltar, many of the officers were on shore, and the conspirators thought this was a favourable op portunity to execute their project; but the crew defended themselves with so much vigour that the scheme failed. The ringleaders, being seized, were tried by a courtmartial. FRENCH FUNDS.—PARIS, APRIL 22. Five per Cents., 10-If. 10c. 15c. Three per Cents.. 77f 75e. 70c. Bank Actions, 1,790 f.

Three months, paper, —f. —c. ; money, 25f. 17%c, —Cours Authentique. We expressed our high satisfaction yesterday at the measures adopted by the Spanish Govern-' ment, in relation to the Cortes. The ground work of those measures is the ancient constitu tion of Spain, which admits the right of the people to choose representatives for themselves, whose duty it is to co-operate with the King and the nobles in protecting the property, lives, and liberties of the whole people. To them also will belong the work of effecting that re form of all the public institutions which may be requisite and practicable. We regret, however, to find that it will be necessary for those who are chosen as representatives, to have resided in Spain for two years. This will shut out the best friends of freedom who fled to other countries when the liberties of their own had been violated by a weak and arbitrary Monarch, who had allowed himself to be deluded by artful politicians and courtiers. We could also have wished that it had been provided that the titulos should have been elected by their Peers, as is the case with our' Scotch and Irish Representative Peers, instead of their being selected by the Crown. The ap pointment, also, of Ecclesiastical Peers by the Crown seems calculated, by making them, as well as the titulos, dependant for their seats on the Crown, to render them less likely than they would otherwise be to fulfil the great end of a House of Peers. They should be as independent as possible alike of the Crown and the people. General education is of so much importance that we cannot refrain from recurring to it. We doubt if it can be accomplished otherwise than by having one or more schools established by law in every parish. We are glad to find that Mr. MUNDELL is of this opinion, though he is for the country availing itself for this purpose of the means afforded by our numerous chari table foundations which have been so much abused (the abuses of which by the way show the uselessness of voluntary establishments). After adverting to what has been done in Prus sia, and is doing in France, he gives an account of the establishment of parish schools in Scot land, with the benefits that have resulted from them—and he asks, " How is England to establish preparatory. schools ? Is she to im pose a rate upon the proprietors of every parish, as Scotland has done, to defray the ex pense? This she must do, unless the nume rous charities established by private bounty can be converted into: general preparatory schools." He further asks, " Is there any reason why they should not be so ?" To do justice to this part of the subject, we must give the answer in his own words : " The universities, and great schools by name, and every school that has a special visiter, having been ex cepted from the statutory inquiry concerning charities, they form no part of our present consideration, even though they did not belong to a subsequent part of it. But has there been any charity reported upon which has not been perverted and abused ? Is this perver sion and abuse to be suffered to continue ? " But is the property that has been endowed to be violated ? No. It is to be held sacred. The pro perty was bestowed for the purposes of education : the property so bestowed is to be applied to the pur poses of education still. Even if these charities had not been perverted and abused, the matters directed to be taught, and the manner of teaching them, though perhaps suited to the period of the endowment, or being all or the best that could then be had, have be come useless in the progress of society. Isolated and exclusive as many of these charities are, they hardly admit of separate improvement, even though they had not been abused ; bnt, amalgamated into one mass, for the purposes of general instruction, the aggregate of them may be rendered highly useful. If the foun ders were yet in being, with their minds enlarged and improved by the advancement of society, they would probably all join in consenting to this amalgamation ; but when individuals give their property in mortmain for a charitable purpose, they create a public trust for public purposes, which vary with the changes of society, and cannot receive effect unless alterations be made by the supreme power of the state, in confor mity to these changes. By the very nature of the en dowment, therefore, the founder constitutes the su preme power of the state a superintending trustee for the execution of the trust, for the purpose for which it was given, namely, the improvement of the commu nity, by means of instruction ; which must - cease to be productive of improvement, unless the means be adapted to the state of society for the time being. Coupled with a public purpose for the attainment of which all those endowments were made, the property endowed becomes by the endowment public property, to be always preserved, but to be used and applied by the supreme power of the state, in the manner which may from time to time appear best calculated to pro mote the object of the founder, namely, the instruction of youth in the way in which youth should be in structed. " When the land of England is suffering from the operation of restrictive corn laws, and the abuses of ill-administered poor laws, it is not desirable' to create any direct charge upon it, which will not be the less severely felt that the owners and occupiers of the soil have been themselves the authors of those restraints and abuses. But, in truth, every other class has been equally exclusive. Every interest has sought to benefit itself at the expense of the consumer. Thus all have suffered ; but the consequences, according to the ways and the retribution of Providence, are now recoiling upon the authors of the exclusion." INIPERIAL PARLIAMENT, THIS DAY, THURSDAY, APRIL 24. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the chair at twenty minutes after twelve o'clock. ISLINGTON MARKET BILL Petitions against this bill were presented by Mr. Bris coe, from Kingston, in Surrey ; by Mr. Shawe, from Suf folk ; by Mr. Finch, from Rutland ; by Mr. Sergeant Spankie, from the hay and straw salesmen of Smithfield ; by Lord Milton, from Warwick and Northampton ; by Mr. Hope, from Gloucester ; and by Mr. Byng, from Brentford, Hounslow, and Hammersmith. Mr. RUMBOLD presented a petition from Great Yar mouth, against the Yarmouth Railway Bill. ' Mr. J. OSWALD presented a petition from 30,000 of the inhabitants of Glasgow and its neighbourhood against the Glasgow Water-works Bill. Also a petition from the commissioners of police of the same city, against the same bill. _ _ Mr. LAMBTON brought up the report of the committee upon the Blaydon and Heber Railway Bill. Mr. FITZSIMON brought up the report of the com mittee upon the Dublin and Kingstown Railway Bill. Mr. WIGNEY brought up the report of the committee upon the Brighton Water-works Bill. Mr. GASKELL presented a petition from the owners of real property in Yorkshire, against the Metropolitan Registration Bill. Lord MORPETH supported the petition, and said he had a petition to the same effect-from the West Riding of Yorkshire. Mr. STRICKLAND also supported the petition, and said that the alteration in the law was monstrous and un called for. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Mr. G. Heathcote, Mr. Tooke, Mr. Beaumont, Mr. Cayley, Mr. Tynte, and Mr. Finn, each said a few words against the bill. Mr. W. BROUGHAM defended the character and ob jects of the bill, and said he should move the second read ing of the bill on Wednesday se'nnight. Mr. ' GASKELL presented a petition to the same effect from the owners of real property in Leeds, signed by 1,157 persons. Also a petition from the Wesleyans of York against tithes, and all compulsory payments for the support Of the established church.—To lie on the table. Mr. BAINES supported the petition from Leeds against the metropolitan registry bill. It had been correctly stated by his hon. friend the member for Wakefield, that this pe tition was signed by no fewer than 1,157 persons, and he could bear testimony to the high respectability of the peti tioners, who consisted of bankers, merchants,manufacturers, and the other proprietors of landed property in the borough that he (Mr. Baines) had the honour to represent. Against the General Registry Bill they had the strongest objections, so far at least as it went to the extension of their own local registry office, and he believed that their feeling was ge neral through the whole of the county of York ; not as had been suggested by the hon. member for Northumberland, amongst interested professional men, but amongst all those who had an interest in real property, and in the possession of the deeds by which they held that property. (Hear, hear.) They felt that it was a matter for just complaint that they should be persecuted, year after year, with this Metropolitan Registry Bill (Hear, hear), and hoped that this would be the last effort to deprive them of the advantages which they already enjoyed, of possessing the benefits of registration without the evils of the unnecessary exposure of their transactions, the litigation of their titles, or the custody of their title deeds. (Hear, hear.) Sir S. WHALLEY supposed the bill must be a good one, since it was only opposed by the county of York, who had enjoyed a system of registration. Mr. JAMES said there was just as much opposition against it in the county of Cumberland. Mr. BLAKE presented a petition from the dissenters of Berwick-on-Tweed, praying for the removal of their dis abilities. Sir S. WHALLEY supported that part of the petition which referred to the registration of births and marriages. Mr. FINCH respected the principle of liberty of con science ; but, claiming that for himself, he should say that he considered the Dissenters' demands too much. The disseverance of church and state, and the admission to uni versities, were requests not to be acceded to. The petition was ordered to lie on the table. Mr. F. O'CONNOR presented 29 petitions for the repeal of the union from several parts of Ireland ; one, too, for the same purpose from Manchester ; and one from Scotland, signed by 1,412 persons : likewise 24 petitions from Ire land for the abolition of tithes ; and one from an indivi dual, named Adams, in favour of the Dorchester convicts. The hon. member made allusion to the observations that were made in his (Mr. O'Connor's) absence, by the hon. member the Recorder of Dublin. He (Mr. O'Con nor) would not imitate his example, as he was absent then.—To lie on the table. Mr. HARVEY said that with respect to the petition on the subject of the Dorchester convicts, the sentence was perfectly legal, and borne out by many precedents in simi lar cases. After some remarks from Mr. JEPHSON and Mr. O'CONNOR, relative to the petition from Milton, the peti tion was laid on the table. Mr. P. LALOR observed that the repeal of the Union was necessary to cure all the grievances that Ireland la boured under. Mr. G. LANGTON presented a petition from certain dissenters at Castlehaven for a redress of grievances. Mr. COATES presented a petition from Brecknock, and other places, to a similar effect. Lord VILLIERS presented a petition from Honiton for the better observance of the Lord's Day. - Mr. R. TODD supported the prayer of the petition. Mr. PINNEY presented a petition from a parish in the county of Dorset, for the redress of dissenters' grie vances ; also, from Lyme Regis, against beer shops, and from Axminster, in favour of Sir A. Agnew's bill. Mr. G. W. WOOD presented three petitions from places in the county of Lancaster, in favour of a proper measure for the observance of the Sabbath. Also, one from one hundred tea dealers in Manchester and Salford, for the repeal of the act making a graduated scale of duty on teas, and in favour of one uniform duty. He said a few words in support of the prayer of the latter petition. Mr. BLAKENEY presented several petitions from the county of Carlow for the abolition of tithes and of ministers' money. He stated that he heartily concurred in the prayer of the petitioners, who were 4,000 in number. Sir R. FERGUSON presented a petition from Not tingham for mercy towards the Dorchester unionists. Also another from the boot and shoemakers of Nottingham, and two from Castle Dunning, Dunstable, to the same effect. He supported the petitions, but he strongly depre cated the system of intimidation that had been adopted by the unionists. With regard to the procession on Monday he believed the whole of the persons composing it were ac tuated solely by humane and benevolent feelings. (Hear. ) One of the petitions was from an association of men and women. He next presented a petition from Burnt Island against the duties on receipts ; also one from the fishermen of Burnt Island, complaining that they were subject to the light-house duty, while the English fishermen were exempted. An HoN. MEMBER (name unknown) gave notice that on some future day he would move an alteration in the law regarding the subject alluded to by the late petition. Mr. PRYME said the system of intimidation first com menced 25 years ago at Nottingham, and that it had the effect of driving many opulent manufacturers from that place. Captain PAGET presented a petition from Beaumaris, and another place, for a redress of the grievances which the dissenters laboured under Sir E. WILMOT presented a petition from Coleshill, complaining of distress among the hand-loom weavers ; also one from Wolsey, in the county of Warwick, for relief of the dissenters. _ . _ Lord WATERPARK presented several petitions from Shirley, Dalbury, and other places in the county of Derby, for the better observance of the Sabbath ; also one from Brainford, in Derby, that market-days may be altered from Mondays; also several petitions from the same county, praying that the rights of the established church might be preserved; also several from dissenters, praying for relief. Mr. BOLLING presented a petition from Bolton for the better observance of the Sabbath. Colonel TORRENS supported the prayer of the pe tition. Mr. BOLLING presented another petition from Bolton praying for a legal registration of births, marriages, &C. He also presented a petition from the licensed victuallers of Bolton, praying for an alteration in the New Beer Act. Colonel I ORRENS supported all the petitions except that which prayed for a separation between Church and State. Mr. BLAKENEY was not surprized, from the conduct of the clergy, that the people should demand a separation between Church and State. Mr. HALCOMB thought that the object which the petitioners had in view was to obtain the revenues of the church establishment. Mr. BARRON presented a petition from the dissen ters of Kirby Lonsdale, praying to be relieved from dis abilities ; also one from the householders of Kendal against the General Registry Bill. Lord COLE presented a petition from the sheriff, grand jury, and magistrates of Fermanagh, against the repeal of the union. Sir WILLIAM CHAYTOR presented a petitionsigned by 1,300 inhabitants of Sunderland for the better observ ance of the Sabbath ; and another from dissenters, praying to be relieved from disabilities. _ s Mr. E. L. BULWER presented a petition from the in habitants of Lincoln to the same effect. IMr. BUCKINGHAM presented a petition from Shef field, signed by 15,000 ; one from Barnsley, Yorkshire, signed by some thousands, and another from the dis senters of a congregation in the west riding ofYork, in favor of the Dorchester unionists ; also one from the merchants of Kirkaldy, complaining of the number of shipwrecks that have taken place, and praying that some precaution to pre serve the lives of merchant seamen may be adopted ; also, a petition from the seamen of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, against the payment of 6d. per month to Greenwich Hospital. Mr. STRICKLAND supported the petition respecting the Dorchester unionists, and the petitions were then ordered to lie on the table.

Mr. COLLYER presented a petition from the ship owners of Plymouth against the payment of money by mer chant seamen to Greenwich Hospital; also from the Unita rian dissenters of the same place, respecting their grievances; also from the Wesleyan Methodists for the better obser vance of the Sabbath, and from the butchers and others of Plymouth, to change the market day in that town. Mr. C. RUSSELL presented a petition from the dissenter Cranfield, in Bedfordshirs, respecting their grievances. Mr. HODGES presented a petition from Tentern, for the better observance of the Sabbath ; and from other places in the county of Kent, to the same effect. Mr. FINCH presented a petition from Stamford against the Annual Registry Bill. Mr. RYDER presented a petition from the Wesleyan Methodists of Dartford, for the better observance: of the Sabbath. After the presentation of some other petitions the Speaker left the chair. KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) THOMAS V. SANDERSON AND OTHERS, Their Lordships, on taking their seats, gave judgment in this case, which was a motion for a new trial. The plaintiff, who was a solicitor at Carmarthen, brought the action against the defendants, who were magistrates, for a malicious prosecution and imprisonment. The circum stances were briefly these. The plaintiff was taken before the defendant on a charge of feloniously demolishing the house of a person named Davis, who resided in the town of Carmarthen, when a riot occurred, and Davis fired upon the people. The plaintiffrepudiated the charge and was about to make a charge in his professional capacity against Davis, when he was ordered into custody. He was subsequently indicted on the former charge, at the instance of the ma gistrates. Upon the trial of this action the jury found a verdict for the defendants. The plaintiff, some days ago, moved for a new trial, on the ground of misdirection of the learned judge, and also that certain depositions had been improperly received in evidence. The Court then refused the rule on the first ground, and this morning decided tha the rule should be refused on the other point. DAY AT ONE O CLOCK. PRICES OF SOCKS THIS Bank Stock 215 3 per Cent.

Among the petitions presented to the Second Chamber of the States General, was one from Gelderland, relative to the burdens imposed on land, on which M. Fockima took occasion to enforce the necessity of protecting measures for the relief of agriculture ; he thought by a concurrence of circumstances that branch especially suffered. He called the attention of the Chamber to the land-tax, the duty on flour, and the distilleries, the importation and exportation of butter, and the excise on salt.

We are informed that the Brazilian government begin to be alarmed, and are arming. Several hundred sailors are being procured in this country to man their fleet ; some of whom have already sailed for the Brazils, and 600 more are preparing to sail. THE FUNDS. Consols continue improving ; they left off yesterday at 91 1 / 8 LA for the Account, and opened at 91 1 % with a strong market. What we stated yesterday of an armed in terference by Spain, Portugal, France, and England, ap pears to be confirmed. Spanish is lower this morning, and has been done at 34 1 A ; Portuguese 731,4. HALF-PAST ONE. We learn, by the last advices, that Pernambuco was still in a state of revolt, and fear was entertained that it would extend to the northern provinces ; in consequence of which the Brazilian government was arming a fleet with troops, to send to that quarter, to restore tranquillity. An express from Paris arrived at a late hour. It is sup posed to relate to the Spanish loan. Consols, which were looking up in the early part of the day, and done at 91 1 for the Account, owing to a report of the Four per Cents going to be paid off, are not so good at present, having receded to 91 1 4 %. Portuguese, 73%; Spanish, 34%. The excellent speech of Mr. Spring Rice, in answer to that of Mr. O'Connell, last night in the House of Com mons, has given great satisfaction in the city. Some steamers have arrived at Liverpool with troops from Ireland. ........ ... ______ THREE 0' CL 0 CK. Consols for the Account, 91 1 4 N. CLOSING PRICES.—FOUR O'CLOCK.
