THE BOARD OF HEALTH. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY.—In moving for the papers and correspondence of which I have given notice, I must take the omortunity of vindicating myself and my honour against a charge which has , been made by another person in another place seriously affecting my personal honour and character for veracity. I feel, my lords, that it may be of little importance to the world at large what may be the character of so humble an in dividual as my se lf, b u t, as a mem ber of your lordships' house, it is a matter of some importance that I should stand erect before you, and either refute the charge which has been made, or submit to the contumely which its confirmation would inflict upon me. I am able, my lords, to give the flattest possible contradiction to every. item of the charge which has been made. It will be within your recollection that some time ago I made a statement in which I mentioned that during the trans actions of the Board of Health a meeting was held at which a certain noble lord was present, at which I myself was present, and at which other commissioners were present--that the noble lord made a proposal, and that that proposal fell. The noble lord stated that it fell in consequence of not being seconded. My assertion was that the term " seconded" never occurred—that it never was seconded—that the term never was used—that the peopo-al was made, and that it was met by myself. In opposition to this, I heard a statement made yesterday by the noble lord in these words : " He had gone to the board on several occasions; he went to them, for example, on the ash of January, 1851, at the request of the Goveniment in pecial case. • . H e went 30th the Board of Health on this subject. This was on the 30th of January, 1851. The board read t o hi m a long letter of se ven pages, which they had prepared, and i n Which they argued the point with the Treasury. Thereupon, as the m i nu t e s recorded—' Lord Seymour moved th , t a letter sould be sent instead of the proposed draught, stating that the board are ready to act on the suggestions contained in u t t rey d should h b be letter.. This motion not being seconded, Lord the Treagury Seymour statedtthhathheeewrdileheldetttheartisthtereTnreemasi informed, when differs from it. No e w e , as to this matter, Lord ShaftesburY, , s h ey ad me s e ta o t,3 h d ad th d a e t ee t r h i e he t d hi it ng isen ha e d f n e o r t . in his place elsewhere, happened as he (Lord mer occasion. Lord Shaftesburf, u s p p o e n ak t i h n e g i o n n fo h nne h t ? o n n ou e r f , soke, it was to be remembered, Seymour), having the secretary—not having been himself been present, present on the oc sasionwhereas he (Lord spoke from his own recollection. Mark the words ! This is the way in whic h the noble lord strikes down another man's honour, and endeavours to erect his own. He solemnly affirms, in oppo sition to my former s t a t emen t, th a t I was not p resent. In the &et place, I give my word of honour solem nl y , and in 7the most emphatic manner that a gentleman can do, arid under th e most solemn obligations of an oath, that I was , present. I give my word of honour that I w as the per son who spoke upon the subjectcolleagues , and that my colleag said not a word. The nobl e lord has committed himself by specifying the date. It is possible that there might have been a d ay on which I was not present; but ha specifies thr ee ti mes emphatically that upon the 30th of January, 1351, he went to that board—that he made a proposal—that I was not there —and that I speaking on bay honour, when I assert that I was there, have asserted that which is untrue. Now, I state first, uon m word of honour as a gentl eman , t h at I was there p . Bo ar next The SPEAKER took his seat at the table a few minutes before twelve o'clock, but he did not take the chair until 25 minutes to one, there not having been a suffi cient number of members present to mike " a house." PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the North Metropolitan Bill, and the British Guarantee Association (Nu. 2) Bill, were considered and agreed to. Mr. George Hartshorn, the occupier of a house in Seymour-street, Euston-squire, appeared to object to an improvement rate ordered to be levied on the pre mises for three years, to defray the expenses of some improvements executed under the authority of the com missioners, and amounting to 211. He handed into the court a schedule containing eight objections to pay ing the rate, the chief of them being that he was liable under clause 88 of the Sewers Act for only one-fotirth of the amount charged. He had paid a former rate, and had deducted three-fourths of it from his next payment of rent ; but Mr. James, the landlord, denied his pay any portion of th e amoun t, an d had sued for t t the o whole rent due, and di-trained upon his goods. He had brought au action against his land lord, which was now pending, and if he were called upon to pay a second rate he should be oblized to commence another action to recover it from Mr. James. He had been put to 401. expenses already. Mr. James, who was in attendance, said that he un derstood when he was last at the court that he was not liable for any of this rate. A pretty warm altercation arose here between the disputants. Mr. James ex pressed a suspicion that Mr Hartshorn was of " un sound mind ;" and Mr. Hartshorn replying that there were two of them there. The Chairman stopped the dispute by peremptorily desiring the parties, if they had any question to put to each other, to put them through the chair. Mr. James could not have been informed that he was not liabl e to t hi s rate, as the court. had always refrained from expressing an opinion as to the interpretation of the 88th clause. The commissioners did not sit there to give advice, but to enforce the !aw. Mr. James was wrong to go to the expense of defending these actions ; for as h is tenant paid a rack-rent he was e ntitled to claim back thiee-fourths of the whole rate ftoin the landlord. The parties, however, must arrange that amongst themselves ; the court must order pay• went. _ Mr. Hartshorn urgently requested the court to sue Mr. Lines, but was informed that the bUsiness must go on in the regular course. Both parties then withdrew. The Court directed orders to issue on vestry clerks for copies of poor -rates as bases for district sewer rates. THE ORDNANCE MAPS. Sir J. Burgoyne wished to know,whether the profit on the sale of these maps went to the board or to the commissioners? y The Chairman replied th:it it did not. Sir J. Burg o the commissioners of sewers ever paid the Ordnance for the survey ? ne said that that was a hard case. H a d The Chairman said they had not. (A laugh). The Court adjourned, after some further formal busi ness.

ELECTR ICITY AND ITS USES: NEW D ISCOVERY.—In the last num b er of the Revue des Deux M on d es i s an ex cellent a r ti c l e, entitled " L'Electricit 4 Ouvriere , " by M. Babinet, member o f the French Institute, enumerating the various effects already produced throug h t he a gency of electri c i ty, whether artistic, scientific , or in dustrial. The learn e d wr i ter traces his subjint through all its electro phases, physiological, p hilosophical, chemical, motive power, light, heat, telegraphic, smelting, and working of ores f or the separation of in tals, moleculaire action, plating, galvano plastic, &c. The whole article is one which. every lover of electricity will read with pleasure, and does infinite credit to M. Babin'et. At present, the chief, and almost only means em ployed in all the various uses to which electricity has been applied, is the Voltaic agency, which is of too troublesome and expensive a character to admit of elec tricity being more universally used than it is, and un doubtedly would be, were a cheaper and easier medium obtainable. We are confidently assured that this desi deratum is on the eve of consummation, and that a newly-Invented magneto-electric machine has lately been seen in operation in Onslow-square, Brompton, which overcomes ail the difficulties hitherto felt, by producing an immense quantity of fluid at little cost, and less trouble. Many scientific persons who have seen the machine speak highly of its astonishing powers and merits ; and predin; that through its agency electricity will assume its high rank and proper position among the industrial agents of manufactures, trade, and commerce: We hope soon to lay before our readers a more detailed! amount of this important discovery. • LIST OF scuTrlsti COMPANIES' PRICES.

COMMON LAW PROCEDURE BILL. The committee on this bill was then resumed, com mencing with clause 37. The remaining clauses were agreed to, and the house resumed. BILLS OF EXCHANGE (No. 2) BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Mr. GEACH said this bill involved a very important principle ; it purposed to assimilate the law of England with regard to bills of exchange with that of Scotland, and is it passed, a party registering a bill of exchange would be enabled to obtain an immediate judgment against the acceptor in the event of the bill being dishonoured. The trading system of Scotland was so widely different to what it was in England that the two laws could not be assimilated with safety ; for instance, in Scotland, it was the in variable rule to make bills of exchange payable at local bankers, who retained possession of them with• out putting them in circulation ; but in Eogland the practice was different, because it was the rule and not the exception to make bills payable at some banking house in London, whose hands it did not reach until it had been in extensive circulation. Little difficulty was experienced in Scotland in renewing bills of exchange, but without the bre idling time which the existing English system allowed, but which this bill would abolis traders havingdishonoured bills of exchange running might be suddenly driven into bankruptcy. al though with aslight indulgence their estate might be made to yield 30s. in the pound. Under this bill, a man who n could not tak e up adishonoured accceptance within 6 days ataftkee agai ns t hi m, and siner the di s h onour, would be liable to have judgment move that the bill be Committed wanted,must fitted w th o i u s i d d ay la t r h g r e e ly e i l. n n o c i r it e h as s e , Sir E. PARRY argued that before so great a upon sound principles of the bill was founded •urislid3rudence, and therefore lie the law of bills of exchangaemubnyunreteitnnodfpelirfiyn supported it. The bill w i cuhn procedure anhegcee s would unnecessary, uy t d andrecca,bi vfheeerr could lasting rendering an economiseexpensive a .dishothnaotursendnnbilal g no a t dv h a e n lp ta fe e el ing li t u m po ig n h t t he tn tra s d n i in ng e portions of the community, though g operations of the proposed nan to extent diminish the banking country. The system which banking establish existed already, not only in Scotland, also in France, Prussia, Spain, Portugal, and Holland, and remembering that it was approved of by a large portion of the commercial community, while it had been e thoroughly investigated by a select committee of the other house, he hoped the house would not be induced to adopt, the amendment which the hon. member for Co ventry had moved. Mr. SPOONER admitted that it was essential that contracts should be speedily and economically enforced, but that did not prove the necessity for the present measure. The evil proposed to be remedied by this bill was imaginary, because Mr. Geach had shown hat out of 240,000 bills which had passed through a b a nk in Birmingham, only 30,000 were re, RUSSO-DU FCH LOAN. - - Lord D. STUART called the attention of the house to the termination of all obligition on the part of this country, in consequence of the conduct of Russia, to continue to make any payments on account of the Rus so-Dutch Loan, and he moved a series of resolutions, the effect of which was that Russia, by her neglect to maintain at the Sulina mouth of the Danube the works necessary to prevent obstacles to its navigation, had vio lated the treaty cf Vienna and injured the commerce of this country ; that upwards of 4,000,000 had already been paid tower. Is the principal and for the interest of the Russo Dutch Loan, and that 3,386,0001. more would be required ; and that, inasmuch as the convention of 1831 between England and Russia secured the payment to the latter part of her old Dutch debt, in consideration of her adhesion to the general arrangements of the Con gress of Viennas the withdrawal by Russia of that adhe sion made it proper to suspend the payments. His lord ship supported these propositions in a speech of great length, most of It delivered to a house of consilerably fewer than forty members Mr. DI(BY SEYMOUR seconded the motion. Sir W. MOLESWORTH resisted the proposition. For two centuries it had been the custom of civi lised nations to pay debts due to an enemy, the single exception being in the case of the Silesian loan, a case in which the conduct of the King of Prussia had been pronounced to be contrary to the law of nations. If the Emperor of Russia had money in our funds at this time he would receive the div,dends thereon, and there was really no difference between such a case and that in question. The de-ired backsliding and departure from the rule dictated by the spirit of the age ought to be most strongly vindicated He admitted the general violation of the treaty of Vienna, which, had we not been at war, would have been a cases belli, but neither that nor war would justify the required repudiation • and he conte n d e d that the Emperor of Russia had not committed the specific violation requisite to in validate our agreement. Sir William showed that we had purchased from the Netherlands, the C B a er p b e ipe of , on G co mo n d Hope,ditioiofpart of the purchase money Demerara, applyingemera a Essequibo, and in the dischar:;e of the obligation in question ; and that in 1831 we had expressly purcba-ed the assent of Russia to the new arrangement between Belgium and Holland, and that we were bound to continue our pay ments, except in the caws of Russia ceasing to concur in our policy in regard to those countries, a contingency which had not arisen. We were, therefore, engaged by treaties arid acts of Parliament to fulfil our obligations ; and he made an eloquent appeal to the house to resist a proposition which would have come better from the obscure delegate of some bankrupt transatlantic state than the representative of a great metropolitan consti tuen cy. Mr. DIGBY SEYMOI7R vehemently supported the motion, controverting the arguments of Sir W. Moles worth, and contending that we ought to stand upon our strict rights. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL explained that Mr. Seymour's energy was entirely thrown away, as he bad misconceived the arguments of Sir W. Molesworth. He briefly re-stated the case, which he characterised as a perfectly clear and simple one. The debt did not rest upon the t reaty of V i enna, an d no infraction of that treaty could i nva lid ate our li a bili ty . Lord D. STUART replied, and said that he had effected hi s o bj ect, the subj, c t. Mr. CA which sto procure a discussion of YLEY urged the withdrawal of the motion, against the character M r.

Moen, a gentleman, of pro r p m ertv Huron, wai in the indicted for feloniously assaulting Mary A parish of Ringsfield, on the 27th,,f inJudniuet,eadndfor Albert Garrod, another gentleman, was also felo niously aiding, abetting, and assisting the above William Meen to commit the said f l th on tr y ied yesterday and f oun d The prisoners were both guilty, but sentence was deferred till next morning. His lordship, in passing sentence upon the prisoners, said : During the interval of the night which had elapsed since their trial he bad most anxiously and patiently con sidered the evidence given yesterday, and the pu n i a h• merit which must be the result of the inquiry. Their principal defence in answer to the charge was, that the woman whom they had most scandalously assaulted, was a woman of a light character, and that she had wilfully and voluntarily submitted to the embraces of one of the prisoners on this occasion. Without giving any opinion as to what were the merits or demerits of the charge, he must say that there were circumstances in this case which satisfied him that the prosecutor's story had been con firmed, and that slie was not, as the prisoners had at tempted to show, a woman of immodest character. He was sorry to say that there had been no want of the greatest exertions, either in the selection of the most able con nsel, or expenditure of money, to procure and employ testimony for their defence to state that which was un true. He was grieved to say that, in his view of the case, they had aggravated their case considerably, for they had, no doubt, brought here one witness, at least. to state that which must be untrue, for the purpose of blackening the character of the prosecutrix. With the verdict the jury had returned he quite concurred ; an', it was a cause for deep regret that mini like the prigoners, of education and of apparent respectability, should be placed in their present position. He should not he doing his duty if he were to pass a sentence upon them different to what he should pass upon two men in the humblest stage of life. Tile prisoners here made a long statement denying that they had given money to any of the.witnessea to state that which was untrue. His lordship did not suppose that the prisoners had personally taken any such step ; but his judgment must be formed upon the evidence brought before him, and the verdict of the jury. The sentence of the court was that Meen be transported for fifteen years, and Garrod to two years imprisonment with hard labour. .SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.
