take If tilt Inquiry were granted. Let the House consider if, since the irresponsibility of Judges were first established, any precedent had been given for such a proceeding ? To one cast he would refer. When the House attempted to call Lwd Holt before them to answer for his conduct upon a particular occasion, to explain the grounds upon which he had given n particular decision, he replied—" I hold an authority independent of this House. I gave the reason for my judgment in the place in which my commission required me to do so. I requ'ae to be protected and not arraigned by this House, and I wilt not give the reason of my judgment." He (Sir R. Peel) wr,uld be glad to know in what respect a judgment differed from ar judicial charge. If that charge were dictated by a conscien tious conviction that it was called for,must not the Baron demur to the jurisdiction of the House to institute the proposed inquiry He ;Sir R. Peel) doubted the policy of the justice of that House instituting an investigation into any judicial act, unless it were one of partiality.—( Hear.) The House admitted that in certain cases political matter might be introduced into Judges' charges. What tribunal then was to define the limits within which it was to be circumscribed ? Was that House to establish a censor. ship—to license Judges•charges ?—(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) Were they to point out for what faults Judges were to be held amenable, or would they not rather leave it to themselves as a matter of taste and of discretion ? (Hear, hear.) In this case the charges of the other Judges had been passed by unnoticed, but the charge of this Learned Judge had teen circulated through the country; it was placarded over the country, because it contained a warning to the people to keep the peace. Upon what pretence could that House institute an accusation against this Judge? Was it because that they found that in another political charge which had been made there was no personal invective ? The duty of a Committee, if such a Committee should be appointed, would indeed be a most unpleasant one. They would have to examine over every sentence of the charge to make some discovery, and to select those parts which they might consider subjects for censure, and those for admission. And when the report of such a Commit tee was made, how would the House proceed ? If the charges which had been made were proved, would there be ground for the removal of this Judge? He would ask the House, if there were no ground for these charges, whether they should attach a label around the neck of this minister of justice? If the Learned Judge remained in the administration of jus tice, was it not right that he should remain in his office un suspected and unimpeached ? Because, though the House could not remove him from the Bench, yet, if they employed any secret censure against him, his own sense of honour would dictate to him the necessity of throwing up his office ? Then, he would ask, was it wise on the part of that House, to use the fearful instrument of impeachment in this case, if they even felt they were warranted in removing him ? Why, in their own reports they had referred to his public charges. These re ports had been printed at their expense, and they would not And any instance which did not correspond with that which the Hon. and Learned Gentleman complained of. If they disliked irrelevant charges, they would find them in the case of Judge Day. He would ask what great benefit could arise, if the Committee proved that Baron Smith had been the author of the second report ? The Right Hon. Gentleman had said that he was waiting for same expression of feeling on the part of Mr. Baron Smith ; but he (Sir R.Peel) had that confidence in the credit and station of that Learned Judge, that he hoped whilst the consciousness of integrity remained to him he would not demean himself by any expression which might be considered as tantamount to an apology. He was, however, far advanced in years, and the infirmity of age might have affected the spirit which had once animated him; and yet, with the fire of youth abated, he hoped would be found in the person of this Learned Judge one who would fight the battle of the in dependence of the Judges. If he were conscious that the charge was frivolous—if he were conscious that no public in. convenience arose from the practice of late hours—and if he came to deliver his political charge, partly because he be lieved it calculated to support the cause of order and further ing the purposes of good government, partly because the charge was sanctioned and encouraged by their approbation, and partly because he was proud of seeing the appendixes of the re ports of that House graced by his charges, whatever the fate of the Learned Judge might be, he trusted he would descend to no voluntary humiliation. If, indeed, this motion had oc curred in other times—in an unreformed Parliament—if it had occurred under a Tory administration when Judge Fletcher delivered a sentence—if he (Sir R. Peel) had then been Secre tary for Ireland, and the report of 24 pages had been recurred to—if he (Sir R. Peel) had brought forward a charge against a Judge—if he had said, "Don't let him go the circuit, here is a charge, a political charge made by him"—if this had occurred when he (Sir R. Peel) was in office in 1814, what would the present Lord Chancellor have said ? And when he should have proposed a Select Committee for the purpose ofestablishing the formula or the mode of censorship under which these charges should be made—what would have been said by my Lord Brougham of the independence of the Judges, and of arrogance and contemptible folly of a Member, who, because a personal attack had been made upon him, should endea vour to subject a Learned Judge to the discipline of a Select Committee of that Houie ?—(Hear, hear.) There was a feel ing abroad that in the case of those declaimed, most of liberty, and who spoke in the loudest terms of their preten sions, made this the ladder by which they attained their object, and, having done this, threw it down! There was a feeling abroad that these persons had no such inspiring love of liberty, which they professed before they attained power. Threedays only had now elapsed since a proposition was made to a willing audience for the purpose of establishing the liberty of the press. It was proposed in that measure to place the law of libel on the same ground with that of scandal—that no ex officio informations should be resorted to; and it was consi. tiered a grievous evil that truth constituted a libel. Censure was libel, because it wounded the feelings, therefore was liable to persecution. Apply this principle then. Was there to be no liberty of speech ? Was a Judge to have no option, but to flatter the Government of the day ? Should they who were to permit this Bill to pass, to put this Judge on his trial without documentary evidence, and without proof of the allegations made ? How could they profess to respect the liberty of speech, if they instituted a proceeding arising out of it which was more vexatious than any persecution ? If they or the Govern ment were offhnded at the terms of the charge complained of, could they arraign the Judge for the purpose of his answer in person before a Committee of the House to the charge made ? If this were done, what security was there for any one if that course were to be pursued ? Here, then, upon the allegation of a single individual—those allegations nothing proved—an inquiry was called for. Now, he would ask not only what Judge, but what man could be safe, or what was the liberty of speech of which they boasted? Upon that, indeed, this attack would be worse than ten thousand e.r officio informa tions. Let the House look to the charge of Judge Fletcher, which he had heard so much lauded. The charge against Mr. Baron Smith might have been, that he introduced political topics ; but there was, at the time, before him no case of trea son or violence. But it was said that, therefore, he was not warranted in giving a political charge, seeing that it was not a special commission. The Right Hon Baronet, after some fur ther remarks, observed that Judge Fletcher (we believe) went to Wexford, and that he gave a charge of twenty-four pages, illustrative of the state of the country, in which he commented on every topic connected with domestic policy, he not being gent on a special commission, and he left the House to judge whether toe state of the country justified this proceeding. The Right Hon. Baronet then proceeded to read a part of the charge, expressive of the Judge's pleasure at the appearance of the country, that the calendar was light, there being but three or fbur eases, ono of which was for homicide, not connected with those disturbances of which he had heard so much. Why it was because of the absence of these crimes that Judge Fletcher during his charge felt himself warranted so aeldeessing a political charge to the Jury. But let the ouse take into account the moral taint which this pro posed inquiry must leave, if the Judge felt it his duty to adhere to the advice of Lord Bacon to warn the people against the consequences of agitation.—(Hear, hear.) He would now ask the House to consider whether they had any ground to go upon to warrant them in asking the Lords to join in the proceeding ? As Mr. Baron Smith's judicial career was drawing to an end he would leave it to be deter mined whether they could remove him from the Bench,—and if they could not, why was it necessary to heap upon him a Mass of injustice by subjecting him to inquiry ? The Hon. and Learned Member had compared the Learned Judge to a stiernond, and he should ha to remembered that the purer the diainond, tee, more visible were the specks in it; and if, in pursuing this charge, he would place in the scale the high honour of the judicial career of the Learned Judge, he would see that there was no reason why they should ask him to sub iii to this inquiry. The Right Hon. Baronet warned the House not to, ensheathe the powerful instrument of impeach ment, and observed, that involved as they had been the other night in the discussion, he would ask whether one man ill ten had read with attention the charge made? Admit the principle of the present motion, and they would at once open the door to gvery solicitor to prefer complaints. Let the House, then, re trg.e los elapse It was said, indeed, that they must proceed, but if they found that they had good reason to retrace their steps, they acted the part of better men who recalled their track. Ilecallse the Hop. and Learned Member for Dublin bad warm feelings, he might think himself the object of vitg- Peration. But, without a specific charge, and without any notice being given to the Judge immediately interested, he was opposed to subjecting hint to any inquiry. Lord ALTHORP would not say that the House should not retrace its steps. If they had substantial reason for doing so, there could be no difficulty in retracing their steps; but he must say. that when a question was decided by the House of ;:ommons that the conduct of a Judge should be inquired into, ihat decision should not have been taken without due deliherae tion—(Hear, hear)—and the decision having been so taken, 'he held it would be inconsistent hastily to retract it. The Right en. Gentleman heving adverted to the charges, he" would observe, with regard to the first, it was that of neglect of duty. It appeared that the Judge went into Court late and sat till late at night. In the case of Armagh, he admitted'that the ex planation of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, the Member for Dublin University, tended in a great degree, if not entirely, to take away the charge made so far ; but it appeared from statements which had been made, that not only at Armagh, but at other places, Baron Smith had been in the habit of going late into Court ; and in the case of Castle Pollard particularly the Judge had not acted as he ought to have done. He had heard that at Castle Pollard the Counsel protested against this mode of proceeding. The Right Hon. Gentleman seemed to think it was impossible for a Judge to make an apology. Now he thought it would have become the Learned Judge to have stated that the House of Commons having voted for an inquiry, and that the House having thought the course pursued not correct, to have authorised some one to state his regret to the House. The Right Hon. Gentleman had not drawn the distinction which was to be observed In the case where a judge was trying political offences in a Special Commission, or arguing cases which were to be brought before him. Thecase of Judge Fletcher had not been brought before the House, but if it had been, he had no doubt they would have expressed a feeling si milar to that which they had done on a former occasion. The Right Hon. Gentleman bad alluded to the case of Judge Holt, who, when called upon by the Parliament on a particular occa sion, would not give an account of his conduct to the Parlia ment, as he held that he was not answerable to them. The time was that a judge might make any charge he chose. In the present case the Right Hon. Gentleman had drawn no alter native between dismissal and the necessity of the House taking no notice of the affair. It would surely be an evil if a judge were to make any charge he liked, and to csnduct himself in any manner he thought proper. The charge would be made on the responsibility of the Government, and if frivolous, the Com mittee should express a strong opinion upon the subject; but he thought that if it were contended that in no case whatever should inquiry take place unless for the purpose of impeach ment he must say that it would have the effect of establishing a rule which would be most detrimental to the interests of the country. The Right Hon. Gentleman had said that the principle of libel ought not to extend to political charges; now he would contend that as much latitude as possible should be given to political discussions; but that the charge of a judge ought to be much more limited. It had been complained of that no notice had been given to the Learned Judge of this motion, but he had ascertained that he had been in communication with certain Hon. Members since the debate of Friday last, and it therefore appeared that he had determined upon a specific line ofconduct. Mr. HALCOMB rose to address the House amid loud cries of" Question." The Hon. Member made some observations, which were completely inaudible in the gallery, from the noise which prevailed. The House then divided— For the motion for discharging the order of the 13th of February l6l Against it Majority against Ministers —6 This decision was received with loud and continued cheering. On re-entering the gallery we found The report of the committee on the Irish Tithes Composi tion Bill, which was agreed to; and Mr. LITTLETON ob. tained leave to bring in a Bill pursuant thereto. Mr. SHEIL wished to ask the Right Hon. Secretary for Ire land whether he had any objection to lay before the House the correspondence between the Government and the Commis sioners of Stamps, relative to the suppression of the Pilot newspaper ? Mr. LITTLETON said he certainly had an objection to giving up the correspondence, inasmuch as it was not of an official nature. He had received the communication eight or ten days, and had replied to it, but not officially. Mr. SHEIL then gave notice of a motion on the subject for Tuesday next. Lord ALTHORP brought up the report of the Poor Law Commissioners, who were, he took that opportunity of stating, entitled to the thanks of the country for having discharged an arduous and laborious duty without having received any remu neration whatever. On the motion of Mr. S. RICE, a new writ was ordered for the borough of Dudley, the sitting Member (Mr. Campbell) having accepted the office of Attorney-General, in the room of Sir W. Home, who retires. The other orders of the day were disposed of. The House adjourned at a quarter-past three o'clock, unti Tuesday next. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the Judges.) Charles Riley, aged 55, a watchman employed at the Royal Mint, was indicted for stealing eighty ounces of silver, the property of his Majesty. It appeared in evidence that a pan of silver was left in the drying-room on the night of the ‘24th of January, and missed the next morning. No person could have access to the pan during the night but the prisoner, to whose watch-box a train of silver powder was traced, and some found in his night cap. A large quantity of silver was found at his house. The prisoner confessed his guilt when taken into custody. In his defence he denied all knowledge of the robbery. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. NETV COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant A RABIN.) Elizabeth Bennett was indicted for receiving goods, knownig them to be stolen.

We can see no reason why Lord ALTHO RP should not have agreed to the motion of the Marquis of C HANDOS, relative to agricultural distress. It imputed no blame to Ministers, and pledged them to nothing unreasonable, but simply to the proposition that, in the remission of taxes, due regard should be paid to the ne cessity of relieving agricultural distress. We believe Ministers admit the general proposition in the fullest sense, and are ready to apply . it to agricultural distress, as well as to dß tress of every other kind ; and what harm then could have been done by acceding to it ? If, on inquiry, it were found that other interests required relief more imperatively than the landed interest, then would have been the time to op pose Lord CHANDOS and the country gentry, but in the present state of the question, the opposition was uncalled for—it was worse than useless. It brought the power of Ministers to a test without any necessity—it exhibited them as virtually defeated in a measure on which no trial of strength ought to have taken place, and thereby tended to impair the confidence both of Members and the public in their good sense and discretion. A double defeat in one night is rather too bad on any questions, but still more so on questions which might have been settled—which ought to have been settled without a contest. Defeat disheartens friends and encourages enemies, and should never be unnecessarily hazarded. A number of Members on many subjects must naturally be guided by the Ministerial leaders. This was the case particularly in the affair of Baron SMITH, and there can be no doubt that, but for the countenance given to the charge, first by Mr. LITTLETON and then by Mr. STANLEY, the House would never have come to a vote which a week after they found neces sary to rescind. These gentlemen ought to be much better acquainted with Irish affairs than the greater part of English Members, and every one believed there must be something egre giously bad in the Judges conduct, else the Secretary for Ireland and his predecessor would not have recommended a measure of such solemnity and rare occurrence. Mr. LITTLE TON and Lord ALTHORP are both excellent men, and before they came into office might be regarded as the best specimens of county repre sentatives ; but they are deficient in some of the first qualities of Statesmen, and allow themselves too often, through good nature and an unsus pecting turn of mind, to be led away by the Insidious designs of others. The cases of Mr. SHELL and Baron SMITH bear us out in the remark. As to the claims of the agriculturists, we cannot agree with Lord CHANDOS, either that the Governm en t can grant t h em a ny sensible relief by remission of taxes, or that they have stronger claims than other classes. The taxes on farmers are not more se vere than on shopmen and manufacturers. The smaller tenants are exempted from house and window taxes, and the larger tenants will share in the relief proposed by the reduction of the house duty. A number of taxes which affected them peculiarly were remitted or les sened last session. The whole of the beer duty --no trifling boon—has ceased, and they have what almost approaches to a monopoly in the corn market. A proper revision of the poor rates would benefit them more than the remission of any taxes which the present state of the Exchequer can admit. The poor rates atnount to about seven millions, and out of that nearly two mil lions are paid for law expenses. Some judicious law on the subject, might do away with all this unnecessary outlay, and thereby benefit the landed interest as much as the abolition of the malt tax. We learn, by intelligence from Paris, under date of Thursday, that the project of law respect ing the staff of the army in time of peace, was passed in the Chamber of Deputies on the 19th, after several amendments had been proposed by General DEMARCAY and others, and a singu lar altercation had take❑ place between the President and the Minister of Commerce, in consequence of the latter attempting to interrupt the progress of discussion, by laying before the Chamber a communication from Government, and insisting on its being instantly attended to, by virtue of what he called the " Royal Prero gative." The numbers in favour of the project of law on the military staff were 185, against it, 120. FRENCH FUNDS.—PARts, FEB. 20 Five per Cents., 1051: 95.:. 85c. Three per Cents., 76f. sc. 76f.

News from Portugal to the 12th inst. men- tious that the Duke of TERCEIRA had been recalled from the command of the Pedroite army, and that Sir THOMAS STUBBS had been appointed to succeed him. This recall is reported to have been occasioned by some jealousy be tween the Duke anti Count SALDANHA, the latter of whom refused to serve with the former, unless he were allowed to exercise the chief command. It was said at Lisbon that a Ali guelite force of 4,000 men was preparing to march on St. Übes ; but it was not supposed that they would venture to attack that town, as all possible precaution had been taken to put it in a state of complete defence. The Royal William and the City of Edinburgh steamers had arrived in the neighbourhood of Lisbon, with a battalion of Belgians, upwards of 850 strong, who are to set forward at once to the army. The following is the official ac count of SALDANHA'S late affair at Pernes (Supplement to the Chronica No. 29, Feb. 4.—Official.} " LEFT WING OF THE ARMY OF OPERATIONS. " Sir—On the 28th, being at the bridge of Alviella, I was informed that the enemy had marched the greater part of his forces on the road of Pernes, after having been reviewed by the Usurper. I immediately ordered Lieutenant-Colonel Miranda, commanding the first light regiment of the Queen, and a bat.. talion of the 10th regiment of infantry, to join Colonel Romao, who occupied Pernes, and I returned to Torres Novas. The rebels approached Pernes on the 29th, and in the evening made a reconnoisance in force. Their dispositions left no doubt in Colonel Romao's mind that they intended to attack him on the following day, which he immediately communicated to me, stating tnatfrom all the information he had received thc enemy's force amounted to 4,560 men of all arms. " Your Excellency knows that the greatest difficulty that we have to encounter, in order to obtain the victory, consists in obtaining for our brave men opportunities to come to blows with the enemy. At midnight I put in motion the troops which oc cupied Torres Novas, and arrived at Pernes a little before day break. At eight o'clock, seeing that the enemy, whose videttes were in sight, did not resolve to attack us, I put the troops un der my immediate command in motion, on the road to Santarem. Generals Caruarro and Bressaget, who comman ded the rebel force, had ordeffd the attack for ten o'clock in the morning, and were not a little surprised when they saw their pickets cut off by our cavalry. The enemy having taken their arms, the brave Lieutenant-Colonel Simao da Costa Pessoa, with the brave 10th regiment of cavalry, fell upon the Ist, 17th, and 0 0th regiments of infantry, which were already in motion, " CoL Balthazar d'Almeida Pimenta l, who, wi th a squadron two cut off some of the enemy's pickets on our left, was in the otfohfrmeanvgalr squares, which were immed i a tel y surround ed by Lancers, under the command of Captain Wakefield, had mean time charged by'a body of cavalry at least twice as nu merous as his own, and the conflict was for some moments terrible, till the enemy fled, fearing to be cut off by the 10th Regiment, which Lieutenant Colonel Pessoa detached along the road, in order to intercept their retreat. Captain Luciano Pimental, commanding the first company of the second battalion of Caeadores, which formed the vanguard, was conducted by Captain Guerreiro, who served as brigadier-major of the column, under the command of Colonel Romao, to a small eminence very near to the place where the enemy had formed their squares. The fire of that company, at a very small distance, occasioned some confusion in the square formed by the 17th Regiment. Lieutenant-Colonel Pessoa, with the brave 10th Regiment of Cavalry, and with the detachment of the 11th, commanded by Major Trigueiros, profited by this opportunity, charged and broke the square, and immediately at the same time the Lancers fell upon the other square, which shared the same fate as the first. " From that moment We had nothing more to do. the enemy was to full Yetreat, and wvae pursued till we obliged him to enter Santarem. " The colours of the Ist battalion, both pair of colours of the 17th Regiment, 709 prisoners, including 21 officers, all of the troops of the Line, a great quantity of arms and effects, and 10 horses of the Regiment of Chaves, besides many killed ; such was the loss of the enemy. Ours consists in 3 soldiers and 8 horses killed, and 4 officers, 13 soldiers, and 2 horses wounded." (Here follow the commendations of the officers.)

MARSHA I, NEY'S. MEMOIRS.--These volumes contain a memoir of the brave, the celebrated, and in the end unfortunate Marshal Ney, and are the founda tion of a lasting monument raised to his memoirs by the affections of 114 fimily. They treat of the events of his brilliant career—of the early battles of the French revo lution, the campaigns in Belgium and on the Rhine, and afterwards on the Danube and in Swi•zerland, in which Prchegru, Jourdan, Kleber, Bernadotte, Brune, Hoche, and others who acted so conspicuous a part in this won derful drama took their first steps to distinction and power. To the military reader these volumes will be very aurae,- rive. To the more general reader it presents an anitrat , d picture ef those troubled and fearful times, when war made desolate more than half Europe.
