NORFOLK CIRCU.IT---Nivwioi, April 4. Caowx COURT—(Befire Mr. Seigeant ATCHER LE V. ) Mary Murrell, aged 25, was indicted for stealing a quanlity )f wine, tea, sugar, candles, silk, eggs, and varioas other arti •les, the property of J..hn Brereton, her master. The prose, utor,. hho is a merchaat at tilakeney, had in his altar, amongst other wines, Some very curious anti rare sherry, mi on examining his cellar-book a few days since, he had rea em suspect that it. went fas:cr than it ought to do, or than is own consumption warran'ed. The belt of the door was not 'seeker; nor was there any mark of violence having been used in any part of it; but it appeared that the prosecutor's filar key was kept with many others, in the key basket, which, during the day, ss as accessible to all the ser vants in the house. No suspicion at this time existed tgaiust either of the servants, but the prosecutor, on going into the female servants' room, saw no fewer than 11 boxes belonging to the prisoner. He these ore suit for a policeman, who opened the boxes, of which the prisoner pro• duceti the keys, and the inside revealed to the astonished eyes •ti the prosecutor the goods mentioned in the indictment, con• sistingof port, sherry, arid Marsala wines, tea, sugar, candles, eggs, and silk, and all sorts of property. Some of the missing sherry was identified by a particular mark on the corks, and the rest of - the articles were of the same description as those I'm use in the prosecutor's hors e , Mr. J. Gay, a county magistrate, in whose service the pri soner had formerly lived, gave her an excellent character for •oonesiy. 'lie had, he s,id, the misfettane to meet with an Weident,,which threatened • - ,i - igkyewsim his service,, 'and to - her ftithfut ittentkinar exerniiraiy emnffuct, he owed the heir g alive to speak on her behalf in her own hour of peril. The prisoner was found Guilty. • The Learned JUDGE, in,passing sentence, remarked on the necessity of protectit"r society against the ro bb er y o f m as t ers by their servants. Had it not been for the exce ll en t eharac rer she had received, he should have undoubtedly felt it his hay to have transported her ; - but in the hope that she %mould regain the character she had for the present lost, and become a oseful membe- of society, he would pass on her the lenient sen ,enee of twelve months' imprisonment, with hard labour. Samuel Barrett was indicted for sealing one gun, the pro pe ty of Meschack Hogg. The case was clearly proved, and the prosecutor, a rare spe cimen of Norolk stupidity, on being asked of what value the gun was, answered " A matter of es." The Learned Judge asked what manner of gun it was that was worth 35.? And the witness said, " It wasn't a gun to go off; it was one they put up as a scare-cross to 'fright the buds (birds); they didn't know it would not go off." • THE LATE LORD ROLLE. Lord John Rolle, whose decease we announced yesterday, obtained h;s peer , ge by creation on the 20th of June, 1794, and had, therefore, been in the enjoyment of it upwards of 46 ve r 3, a period of nearly half his life, his Lordship having, at ihe t;me of his death, obtained to the advanced age of 86. Lord Rolle's family was of Di rsetsl:ire extraction, but subse quently removed into Devon, where it has, continued planted to the present day. His first Devonshire ancestor" was George Rolle, a merchant of great opulence and repute in the City of London, about the middle of the sixteenth century, and became an extensive purchaser of abbey lands - at the time of the Reformation. One of the most notable of his ancestors, was Henry, Sergeant-at-Law, and momber of the three first Parliaments of Char:es I. He subsequently became Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, and grew so much into the confidence of Cromwell, as to be one of his State-Councillors. His descendant, Sir John Rolle, on the other hand, attached himself to the Court of Charles II: vias made a Knight of the Bath at that Monarch's coro nation, and died at an advanced age, one of the wealthiest Commoners in England. John Rolle, Esq., M. P. for his paternal countY, was offered an Earldom by Queen Anne's last Ministry, but declined the honour. Henry Rolle, also M.P. for his county, dying unmarried .in the year 1750, after the dignity had resuscitated in his person, saw it, by consequence, die with him. Creation, however, of the title ,anew, was, as we have seen above, made in the person of the lamented subject of this memoir.

The Occasion of new creations in the Peerage at the torn . mencernenl„Of . ...Ix. Pitt's Administration was, the unpleasant opportunity which brought Lord Rolle conspicuously before the world. During the first twenty three y ears of George the Third'S reign there were forty-three creations, but during the same, period thirty-three had become extinct. But a new era began with Mr. Pitt's Administration, equally as in himself there appeared upon the polideal arena, a new man, with new principles. No sooner had he become Minister than his disdain or disregard of the haughty junto of the aristocracy showed it self in open form. ll.s father, indeed, like him, had always beer, too grand and too proud to court them, and the son of Chatham found they impeded his bold views of things, arid he resolved to thrust aside this barrier by new measures. This was the creation of his own Peerages : four he made immediately on his elevation, a measure - which tilled down Upon him the denunciations of Fox, who in one of his bitterest veins reproached him for using the pre rogative of the Crown, as a corrupt instrument of his own ad vancement. Despite this, the young Minister added eight snore in April, and be continued at an accelerated rate to pour honours upon men who, not of any great distinction as public characters, were, nevertheless, with the depths of his own vagacit3, looked upon as his props and aids.. The clamour which, it will be remembered, a similar movement raised among the aristocracy in the reign of Queen Anne, now brought the flower of that moriified body in array against the youthful administrator. Rutland, Northumberland, Gower, and Lonsdale, the lords of the great houses, were up and against him. '1 he Dukes of Devonshire, Portland, Bedford, and Bolton; Lords Derby, Fitzwilliain, Surrey, Spencer; sur rounded by Fox, Burke, Wyndharn Sheridan, Fitzpatrick, Lord John Townsend, &c. made a most formidable alliance of offence—while French Lawrence, whose indefatigable genius could draw political intelligence, as well as abstruse learning, from all sources, bound together in the Probationary Odes and the Rolliad such an assemblage of spirited satire and ridicule, as would have sunk any Minister of less courage, and leis manly and direct force of talent, than Pitt. The Rolliad, as the title of the above clever satire indi cate:, was levelled against his Lordship as. the representative of the host of new created Peers who, from every imaginable quarter, sprung up under Pitt's command, sudden in their growth as Jonah's gourd. It is true his Lordship, somewhat nettled at having his genealogy questioned, had strained that point a little, and endeavoured to attribute to himself some thing more of ancientness than the Herald's College could, without hesitation, allow. This, however, was the delicious butt for the sarcasms of the clique, who wetted their keenest wits to give him some signal nine -thrusts, and the satiric effusions of the Rolliad will long stand as a proof of the caustic and virulent attacks, to whose unrelenting severity he was subjected. Bicton, - "hiS Lordship's favourite seat, and where he was ac customed to spend, great part of Isis time, was vested in his family by gift of Henry the First. the first holder of it was surnamed Janitor, or door-keeper, from the peculiar nature of the plce, and the tenure in which it was had, consisting of Aelteeping the prison for the county—a service which, to the pment clay, is still performed by the possessors of the manor.

O w rj O CRIMINAL COURT. YESTERDAY. OLD COURT. Martha Harrington, aged 40, a person in the service of Lady Augusta Paget, was indicted for stealing bank notes and cash of the value of 20/., the• property of her mistress. She was also indicted for embezzling three sums of 101. each, the property of the same prosecutriz. There were two other indictments against the prisoner for feloniously forging receipts to two bills, with intent to defraud her miitress. To the three last indictments the prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. 13AnnEr.r.y, en behalf of the prosecution, said the sums named in the above indictments had been selected from various others, and Lady Paget. from a sense cf public duty, had deemed it necessary to proceed upon them. Since the pri over hal been in custody she had sent a letter to her Ladyship, in which she expressed her contrition for what she had done. The receipts in . uestion were forged to tradesmen's bills, the money for which bad regularly been given to the prisoner, but she had neglected to pay them. In answer to a question by the Recorder, Mr. BADDELEY said the amount stolen and misappropriated by the prisoner was consi►terable. It was the wish of her Ladyship, however, to recommend the prisoner to mercy. The REcoanEit said it was such a very seri .us offence that it was impossible the Court could pass it over without very se vere punishment. The sentence therefore was, that the pri soner be transported for seven years. Robert Fairfax, aged 20, was indicted for breaking and en tering the dweLing•house of Mr.. John 'Osborne, arid stealing therefrom a spoon, a miniature, 'and various other articles, his property. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.'

GREAT SELLING OFF, by Mr. FOSTER, the ACCOUNTANT. R. FOSTER . has instructions to submit for SA LE,in Lots, as prepared for Auction. 27,0001. worth of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the S ock adver tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET ST it EET and AR RINGDON-STREET, tracing under the firm of lIEBBLENVIITTE and CO , notice having been given that an auction is not permitted by the lease. Mr. Poster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods, becrs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to realise' more than half the original cost, the object being to clear the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must of necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli cited to mal:e allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants, being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused to this method of selling goods over the counter. The following is about the reductions intended to be made. The linens being the larger portion, Will be reduced as under:— s. d. 730 pieces of Irish linen, mostly Knox's make, that cost from at 26 yards, from 6d.to2rds 5.2, for 2d. per yard, ladies may choose 25 0 About_ $5O of his curiously fine numbers, worth from 2s 9d. to 3s. 3d. per yara, will be likewise reduced to 26 yards for .... 4O 0 1,( 00 or more pieces that are soiled, amongst which are some warranted fabrics, will be reduced to 26 yards for 21 0 The sheetings and table-linen require particular notice. The respectable family trade carried en for thirty years at the esta blishment rendered it necessary to keep none but fine and war ranted goods, consequently ladies wit] not be subjected to the chances u , ual on selling off stocks of risking the durabiliity. Fifty pieces of linen sheeting are reduced to ba sold in the length only at 4s. 6d. to 10S. 6d. the pair, those at 10s. Gd being three yards wide, and real Barnsley manufacture, having originally cost 2s. 9d. per yard. Should the length be found in convenient a further reduction will be math in the price. The tablecloths, although of the finest description, are mostly soiled, consequently the reduction must be immense. Some superb damask cloths, three yards long, will be sold as low as 6s. 6d. each ; lots of good linen breakfast cloths will be marked from Is. to 2s. Gd. each, aed about 130 cloths, from three to six yards long, many worth thr. e to four guineas, will be sold none higher than fifty shdlings. Mr. Foster wants an offer for the following lots from the trade :—Ribands. as per book, 1,830/.; lice, as per book, 640/. ; gloves, as per book, 1431. All the other goods will be sold as usual in selling-off stock s. d.

Mr. luster %mild not have undertaken this sale had he not felt satisfied of the character of the goods to be sold, and ladies may depend that every art►cle will fully answer the description given in this advertisement, or at the time of sale. The prin cipal part of the stock having been kept in their wholesale ware houses, will be found in good condition, and any person buying in large quantities, no obstacle w.ll exist in the way of price ; also a liberal discount will be allowed off ibe bill when it ex ceeds 10/.

LADY ANNE GRANARD ; ma, KEEPING UP AP FEARANCES. By L. E. L.—An admirable subject! What a theme for the pen of the satirist of English habits in the 19th century—this era of ultra civilization and refinement Let us hope that the present is hut the first of a series of attacks on the meanest, yet most mischievous, of all the many vices which belong to us. There is no country in the world, except England, where poverty is looked u;:on and treated as a crime; and where, therefore, people are tempted to be crimi nal, in order to avoid being thought. so. There is no mean -1103, no cruelty, no deceit into which the Lady Anne Granard of this novel does not willingly, and even eagerly fall, and (what is ten thousand times worse) ttach her innocent children to fall, in order to the indespensable' " Keeping up Appear ances." As this most amusing and attractive novel will, of course, be read by all the world, we , shall n ot e v e n gl ance at its lea ding characters, further than to add that they are all va rious, spirited', original, and singularly true to the artificial na ture of that sta'e of society to which they belong. —Naval and Military Gazette. A Frankfort letter of the 29th ult., says—" The King of Prussia having appointed Baron de Below to the high post of Minister for Foreign Affairs, he has ceased his functions as the Envoy of the Court of Prussia to the Germanic Diet, and will leave this place to-morrow for Berlin." The cause of the flood at Derby still remains a mystery. Some suppose it was produced by a water shout, which burst on the neighbouring hills. The damage to pro perty amounts to some thousand pounds. Carttar stated that on Saturday morning list, between five and tix o'clock, a person named George Dudley, agreeahly to irstructioi:s received from - S:r nicbard Dobson and Dr. Sutton (who are owt.ers of a public-house called the Saluta tion, and six cottages adjoining), brought down from Deptford a caisson for the purpose of placing it in frpnt of the premises before:lamed- It Was towed by a steamer called the Pilot, to which a barge Was also attached. The whole was secured together by rip es and chains. When cff Garden-stair:. at high tide, they stopped the steamer in order to haul the caisson and lighter in front of the Salutation. At this time 12 water men came out to the steamer and got on board, and with axes which they brought for the purpose, cut the hawsers. The ropes were new, and the damage thereby amounted to 71. 103. Mr. JEREMY said, if this were a case involving the supposed right of parties, his jurisdiction was taken away. No persons had any power to intrude on property in derogation of a public right. You, Mr. Carttar, claim fur your clients a right which the opposite side deny you have any claim to. Damage done under a supposed right is not in the eye of the law con sidered either as wilful or malicious, but if under a colourable right, it would be different. I consider that I have no right to interfere, and that the case ought to be tried in the regular manner. Mr: Carttar apprehended that the assertion ought to be proved that the watermen 11.1 d the right which they had alleged, and contended that the defence was a mere colourable or.e. .IFuENtv said, according to our own showing, Mr. Carttar, you have a stone pier on the one side, and w ished to place a caisson on the other, by which means you would com pletely block up the parish stairs, and which you have no right to do. Why do you nut bring an action against the watermen if their pier is an infringement Mr. arttar—We have nothing but shadow to fight against. The watermen committed the Get, viz., cut their connecting ropes before they knew whether the caisson was going to Gravesend, or where it was intended to be placed, and con tended, therefore, it was wilful damage. Mr. JEREMY—Su, po e a man's neighbour has ascertained that his property 'S a3out t) be trespassed upon, he has a tight to prevent it ; and that, in the event of any damage being done in so preventing it, could not be called either wil ful or malicious. IN A FEW DAYS WE PROPOSE PUBLISHING Mr. Carttar regretted that Mr. Jeremy could not interfere and put a stop to the matter. by this day's proceedings; how ever, the result would be that they were determined to take the watermen's pier away by fcree.—(Cries of " Shame.") Mr. JERENI r—You must not use violence, you must do it by legal means You object to the floating pier, and by your own showing- want to put down a caisson in its place ; the motive is obvious. You, in fact, want to do what you say the watermen cannot do, and which you acknowledge by having deemed it necessary to apply for en Act of Parliament before you erected the stone pier. —The case was dismissed. LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S OPPO- SITION TO TIE INCOME TAX. On Thursday evenir.g, on the bringing up of the Report of the Income Tax Resolution, Lord John Russell, it is now un derstood, will move a series of seven resolutions, condemnatory of the proposed measure. The first anthecond state the ex isting " deficiency of income to meet the expenditure of the country," and the readiness of the House to adopt measures for averting the same in future years. The thirst and fourth resolutions assert. the beneficial tendency of the reduction of the duty on corn, and other articles of consumption (as pro posed by the late Government) ; and that trade would be pro• mowed by the repeal or reduction of various prohibitory and differential duties. The fifth states the amount of taxes taken off or reduced since the last war down to 1836 (excluive of the income tax) to he about 2'3,873,000/. ; and the sixth-reso lution gives a brief history of the income tax, and of its being repealed on the establishment of peace. The seventh, last, and most important resolution, is as follows:—" That, con sidering the various means of supplying the present deficiency, without enhancing the price of the necessaries of life, or em barrassing trade, it is the opinion of this Muse that the renewal of a tax, inquisitorial in its character, uneqnal in its pressure, and which has hitherto been considered as th e fi nanc i a l reserve of the nation in time of war, is not called for by public ne cessity, and is therefore not advisable." BURKE'S PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE.-- This important and very valuable work, revised to the present month, has just been published by Mr. Colburn ; and, to use a technical phrase, has been " got up" in elegant style. The deep research, the accurate detail, and the interesting notabilia, which have already distinguished this publication, are still more remarkable in this latest edition ; and in congratulating the upper classes of society, for whose accommodation it has princi pally been compiled, on the appearance of so complete a corn penaium of their genealogy, we feel it due to Mr. Colburn, to render him the utmost credit for the issue of a work, perfected at an utter disregard of expense.—Aye. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.— We regret to announce the loss of the brig Albinia, 430 tons register, Captain Logie, commander, on the night of the 25th ult. She was bound from Newcastle to Jamaica, with a cargo of 600 tons of coals, when ' in the dreadful gale on Good Friday night, being 50 miles N. W. of Tory Island, or in the latitude 54 deg. 30 win., longitude 11 deg. 45 min., she lost her rudder, and shortly after became a complete wreck. Two of the crew were drowned ; the rest, 15 in number, betook themselves to the small boat, which measured but 18 feet keel and 3 feet beam, and after b,ing exposed to the rage of the elements, the sea literally roll ing mountains high, without food or drink, without se much as a rudder, and having but half of one oar, they landed safely at ten o'clock last Monday night on Ballyhernan Strand, county of Donegal, a shore where no boat was ever known to land be fore ! These poor sufferers have been treated with the utmost kindness by the Rev. B. Maturin, and his brother, Mr. C. Maturin, barrister, and the Rev. Mr. O'Donnell, parish priest, who are endeavouring to raise a small sum to convey them to their homes. The A lbinia was the property of Mr. W. Bottom ley, an extensive timber-merchant, residing at Enfield, near London.—Derry Sentinel. According to the official tables of the prices of wheat in the French markets, made up to the end of last mon h, it appears that the highest was 23f. 14c. the hectolitre in those of Mulhausen and Strasburg, and the lowest 16f. 77c. in those of Saumur, Nantes, and Marans. It appears, from a tab:e of the consumption of the eity of Lyons for 1842, that the number of oxen, cows, calves, sheep, lambs, and pigs slaughtered for food during the year was about 50,000 less than in 1841.

Sun (Mice, 112, Strand, April 6, 1842. LONDON: WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL 6, 1842. The Revenue tables for the quarter, which will be found in another part of The Sun, show a decrease on the Customs, Excise, Stamps, and Taxes, as com pared with the corresponding quarter of last year, of 288,973/. In the Post-office, Crown lands, and Miscellaneous items there is an increase of 341,0671., showing a total increase in the quarter, of the ordi nary revenue, of 52,094/. Such a result is not con solatory, as the increase is in what may he called accidental sources of revenue, while the decrease is in all the great streams which usually fill the na tional treasury. In the extraordinary revenue there is an increase of 65,675/., and a decrease of 6,4371., making a total increase of revenue in the quarter of 111,332/. Sir R. PEEL appears to have been well convinced, before he brought forward his income tax, that the heavy hand of the landlords, on the throat of the nation, was throttling its prosperity, and that nothing additional could be got from it till they were made to relax their murderous gripe. Included in the revenue of the years ending the sth instant is 627,2941., obtained from sugar, more than in the year ending April .5, 1841. It can scarcely be expected, however, if the accounts given by the West India planters of the indolence of the negroes be correct, that we shall next year receive an equal sum for sugar, unless foreign sugar be ad mitted. At any rate it is a somewhat melancholy and startling reflection that so much of the income of the Government, and consequently the order of the State, should depend on the disposition of the black labourers in the West Indies. We see nothing in the Revenue Tables to give us the least satisfaction, unless it be the continued increase of the postage revenue, which has been so much reduced, while all the duties that have been increased are yielding less and less. In State arithmetic addition diminishes and substraction augments. Sir ROBERT PEEL iS about to add to the taxes, and probably he may dimi nish the receipts. Necessity, the tyrant's plea, seems now likely to be come the rule of our legislators. The slave owners in the United States and in Cuba declare that there is a necessity for slavery. They mean a necessity to gra tify their lust of wealth and their desire of ease. For years, aye, for ages, it has been declared that impress ment is necessary, which means that certain mistrustful, ignorant, and, perhaps, cowardly persons in Parliament, and in the public service, were afraid lest men, the cheapest of all commodities, could not be obtained in sufficient numbers to sacrifice their lives in the so-called service of their country ; a most idle fear, but on that idle and absurd fear the crime of impressment was justi fied and practised without remorse. It is necessary, it is said, to put down fairs and all kinds of amusements for the people, which phrase, when analysed, is found to mean—that the rich and care-worn envy the common people the little animal enjoyment they can obtain, and cry aloud that it leads to immorality, and must be put down. Necessity is the tyrant's plea of multitudes in popular Governments as well as of despots, where millions vilely consent to hold their lives and fortunes at the will of a single individual, and is now as much acted on in England as in Itassia. Necessity is Sir ROBERT PEEL'S plea for the income it tax. He must have more • money, and cannot, so he says, raise it by any other means. Many Liberals, and all the Tories echo his • must, and on their asserted ne cessity the income tax is to be inflicted on us. Analysed and examined, that word necessity means nothing more than Sir ROBERT PEEL'S inability, or his unwillingness, to examine all the resources of the State, and his political dependence on certain monopolists, which makes it ne cessary for him to do their bidding. The necessity for an income tax to scourge the people, really means, therefore, nothing more than the feebleness of Sir P. PEEL'S mind, or his political dependence on the land- lords. He has hinted at another necessity, the necessity of imposing on foreigners by our willingness to make great sacrifices. Then France will be eager to cherish peace, and the United States, in which there is now much gas conade, will be slow to prosecute a quarrel on account of - the Creole, the Caroline, or the Boundary. Then, too, it is supposed, that the distant nations of the East, hear ing of our readiness to make great sacrifices, tvill lie smitten with dread, and that cur mighty preparations will spare many blows. All . that may be good, but the necessity would not exist did not our Legislatitre prevent that mutual dependence of nations which is generated by commerce, and which would make us fear as little a quarrel with France and the United States, as that a quarrel should ensue between Scotland and England, or b.qween Yorkshire and Cornwall. Moreover, if this necessity of imposing on foreigners by a display of patriotism and devotion to the Government be so urgent, why should it be confined to the middle and lower classes ? Might not the landlords exhibit those qualities with as much advantage as other persotiS ? Selfish maintainers of their own selfish advantages, they cheered Sir ROBERT PErm, the chosen organ of their selfishness, when he talked nobly about sacrifices and 'patriotism; when he called on all classes cheerfully to submit to the burdens he is about to imp,jse, but they never ofilTed up their own Corn-law on the altar of patriotism. It is mainly for their advantage that distant perssessions are• preserved. They enjoy all the emoluments and honours of the Government. They limit the resources of the nation by their monopolies, and instead of sacrificing these, and so increasing the revenue in an hour of peril, they call on others to bear all the burdens of the State, while they reap all the honours and advanta.s. Let them set an example of making sacrifices, and others will follow ; at present they main tain this monopoly; they keep in their own hands all the power and rewards of Government, and at the same time they assert that there is a necessity for the Inople submit to new burdens. Sir ROBERT PEEL, too, while he preaches to us the necessity of submission, feels a necessity to be a despot. The claims of the protected classes upon whom he relies,, and whose pretensions he has encouraged, are so nume— rous, that it is impossible for him to satisfy them. Re cuts the matter short, therefore, with an " absolute shall," and says it must be as I direct. The multitude of the claims on him necessarily makes him despotic. The more the operations of Government are extended, as the faculties of individuals cannot be extended with them, to grasp them all, the more despotic must rulers become. In our free State they declare, like Sir R. PEEL, that they cannot remain in office unless they are allowed to h&c their own way. The Emperor NICHOLAS might at any time listen to the few nobles or opulent persons, who might venture to sug gest to him that he was doing theta undesignedly an injury, but in a free country it is impossible for a Minis-. ter to listen to the reclamations of all who may presurue on his attention. Hence Sir R. PEEL'S ambition in pro posing to re-adjust the whole tariff necessarily carries with it a species of despotism. It is impossible that he should succeed without suppressing clamours, refusing to listen to remonstrances, and being, as he avows, des potic in his resolves. Acting on this plea of necessity, we arc already far gone in the way of despotism. Our ancestors valued trade so highly. that they made it a Standing Order of the House of Commons, that no measure, in any way affecting trade, should be introduced, except in a .Com mittee of the whole House. They adopted the same resolution as to religion. Their object was to submit. any measures, affecting these important subjects, to the most searching examination, by increasing the stages it must go through, and so add to the guarantees against hasty changes. Our ancestors, who framed the rules of procedure, which even Mr.. BENTIIAM has eulogised, placed trade and religion under the same safeguards. Suppose that Sir RonteßT PEEL had in his own closet, after some - inquiry by a Radical Committee of the House of Commons into the condition of .the Church, an nounced, to the House of Commons a great scheme for a. fresh appropriation of Church revenues, and no Slight alteration in its doctrines---suppose he had coupled such a scheme Vi.ith a plan for raising the supplies for the year. and declared that both were ne c,!ssary—snppose that he had openly stated that he would. throw up the Government if he were not allowed tyb carry both through Parliament, would that not be vir tually, but cunningly, setting aside that constitutional guarantee against change in religion, which has been established by compelling every man to bring forward such changes in a Committee -- of the whole House ? It is true, that after he had settled with an obsequious and time-serving majority that his new scheme of finance and Church government should be carried, though they hated it, rather than that he should give up the Government, he would introduce it in a Committee of the whole House, observing the form, while he violated the substance of the Constitution. Such conduct would deservedly cause great and deserved reproaches from the religious party, and in addition to the cry that - would be raised against him for attacking the Church, he would be justly accused of violating du,* Constitution. But this is precisely what Sir H. PEEL is doing as to trade, and we are not aware of any reason which should make us, on the plea of necessity, submit to this cun ning violation of the Constitution in regard to trade,. any more than we should submit to it if practised to the injury of religion. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff, subject to the modifications which he may condescend to. introduce in it, if he stick to his declara tion, is already carried, before it has been submitted to a. Committee. His conduct is, we assert, a cunning violation, in substance, of one of the best safeguards of our Con stitution. Even if we approved of all his tariff altera tions, despotically proposed as they are, we should ob. ject to his lashing them on to a system of finance, and coercing the House of Commons into an implied assent to them, by a threat of resignation, before he has even submitted them to a Committee of the whole House. These measures, however—the odious and inquisitorial income tax, the changes in the tariff—rest altogether on necessity, that tyrant's plea—the necessity for more money—the necessity for keeping Sir R. PEEL in office, and the necessity, therefore, of assenting to his schemes as he issues them from his bureau. With much pre tence, however, he says that he has done justice to all classes. If that be true, what has been done by every pre ceding:Minister and by the Legislature? What did he him self do and advocate, n hen he defended and upheld the very laws and protecting duties he now proposes to. change ? lie is driven to make the change from neces sity, and, Conservative though he be, he cannot avoid altering the old regulations which he has taken office to maintain. Neither in doing it can he avoid pronouncing, like some Radical, a sentence of condemnation on the very laws and the very Legislature he calls on the peo ple by severe penalties to obey and revere. NOTICE TO MARINERS.-LIGHTS IN THE CATTEGAT. Conformably to the announcement *tide by this Board. is the 22d of February last, the light.vessel therein mentanned will be placed in the Cattegat, at the end .of Anholt's Eastern Reef, early. in April, and the light exhibited as soon as the follow ing alteration has been made in Anholt's chief fixed light, which will be completed by the middle of the monthofAp i il.The above mentioned vessels having two masts with the peculiar rigging of a schooner, and whose sides are painted red with a white cross, will be E. half S. from the lighthouse on the island of Anbolt, about one quarter mile from the end of the reef, in 18 fathoms water. The light apparatus consists of nine lamps, with ro tary gear, which surround the aftermast, and will be dented 25 feet above the level of the sea. This, like the other Danish lights, will in future be kept burning between Mi chaelmas and, Easter from half an hour a ft er sun set till sun rise ; and be tween Easter and Michaelmas from one hour after sun set. n I thick rain and fog the ship's bells will be rang continually far five minutes, after a pause of some duration.

A t t h e same time that the floating lightis exhibited the fixed light on the Island of Anholt will be altered to a flash light, comprising eight lamps, with rotary apparatus revolving in three, minutes and one-third ; so that every 25th second a strong flash is shows which continues abeut six seconds, and then disappears for nineteen seconds. The light is in future be exhibited every night throughout the year, according IS the regulation for lighting an extingushing Danish lights ; on the contrary, the additional fixed light on the eastern side of the lighthouse will be kept burning only so long as the light vessel is in her station.

NAVAL MOVEMENTS. The only arrival we have had during the past week is the Cambridge ship of the line, on the 20th, from Gibraltar, last from Tarragona (in six days, from which latter port she has brought the masts, spars, iron ballast, and sundry stores, be longing to the Tribune, wrecked there some time ago. The departures consist only of the Daphne corvette on the 20th, and the Benbow ship of the line on the 21st, both for England, and the Vesuvius steamer of war, &so on the 21st, for Barce lona, where it is reported a large French naval force has ar rived. The Benbow, after getting► about six miles out to sea, shortened sail, then furled all her canvass (the wind being light from the N. W. ), crossed yards, and passed a hawser to the Vesuvius, which towed her out of sight of the island. The Tunisian corvettes Delaliah and Meshoud, which put in here through stress of weather on the 17th instant, bound from Tunis to Constantinople, remain in port, the former having knocked away her rudder in coming to anchor. The Meshoud is said to be a present to the Sultan from the Bey of Tunis, and she is reported to have also a large sum of specie on hoard. The Circassian yacht, belonging to Mr. W. Lyon, sailed the 23d instant. The Ncapoltan steam-racket Francesco Imo arrived on the 23th from Naples and Sicily, and left again on her return the 22d inst. Ihe French steam-packet Rhamses, from the Levant, arrived early this morning. On the 2d inst. one of the heaviest gales this winter was experienced at Beyrout ; the Alexandria peke -schooner Emmetje and an English mer chant brig rode it out off the town. The Inconstant was at Bey rout on the 4th inst., tho Hecate at Jatfa, the Weazle on the northern coast of Syria, whence the Savage is on her way to Malta. The Cyclops arrived at Beyrout on the 2d inst., left again on the sth, and arrived at Alexandria on the 7th inst. The Medea left the Piraeus for Rhodes on the Bth inst. The Ori ental contract steam-ship is hourly lopked for from Alexandria ; on her arrival the Alecto will be despatched to Marseilles with the overland India. and China mail for En4land. The Prometheus, front Gibraltar, with the London mail, was due on the 281 h ult., and the Ibnia, from the lonian Islands and Greece, to-morrow. The Magicienne vas lying at Suda on the 14th inst. The Aigle, which left . Smyrna for Vourla on the 14th, re turned to Smyrna on the 18th inst. The four French sail of the line, Ville de Marseille, Ge mappe, Friedland, and Genereux, sailed from Smyrna for Toulon on the lith inst. Admiral Lasusse, in the Santi Petri, with the Calypso frigate, Diligente corvette, Fleche brig, and Acheron steamer, remained at Smyrna en the 19th inst. The Austrian frigate Venere, with the flag of Admiral Ban diera, was to leave Smyrna on the 19th inst., for a cruise in the Archipelago. A report is current that the number of British ships of tke line . on this station is to be continued on its present footing of ten (including the Queen three-decker hourly looked for from England); but one, and perhaps a frigate likewise, will in all probability he stationed on the south coast of Spain. Another ship of the line will be stationed at Corfu, and another in the Adriatic. The Monarch will remain at the Piraeus, and the rest will most likely proceed to Vourla, but all will depend on the instructions of the Admiralty to the new Commander in- Chief, Sir Edward Owen. THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY.—On Monday a Coroner's Jury assembled at the Cart and Horses, Kingsworthy, a village near Winchester, to inquire into the circumstances connected with the death of James Watmore, aged 58, Charles Noyes, aged 20, James Allett, aged 23, and James Batchelor, aged 22, the four men killed by the falling in of a portion of the NI aller's Ash Tunnel on Saturday. Mr. Todd, the Coroner for the Southern Divi sion of Hampshire, presided, and after a lengthened investiga tion the Jury returned a verdictof " Accidental death, deodand 501. ; and the Jury consider that the foreman (Ferris) of the deceased men, it not a fit and competent person to be en trusted with the lives of men in so important a work." _ _ - It is stated that Madame Vestris, s connexion with Covent Garden theatre, as manager, will cease with the pre sent season, and that it is probable Mr. Charles Kemble will be the head of the establishment, aided by his daughters Miss Adelaide and Mrs. Butler. FREEMASONRY. — The antiquity of Freemasonry must be very great, as the plates in-Lord Kingsborough's large work, on the antiquities of Mexico and Peru, and Baron Hum boldt's work, show that Masonry was practised by the Tsabeans of that part of the world. The Polynesian Islands possess Ma sonic remains. Through the whole of Turkey, Arabia, Egypt, Tartary. China, and Japan, Masonic re ma i ns are f oun d ; in deed, travel where you may, Masonry has been before you.
