The success of Joint Stock Banks is not experimental, but ascertained, and practically illustrated by the admitted prosperity of such Banks in England, Scotland, and Ire land. This affords the best reason for anticipating similar success to the present more extended establishment, pro posed to be conducted upon the same approved system of banking. The advantages of joint stock ba❑ks are obvious— " Their capital cannot be diminished by either deaths or retirements; their numerous proprietors ensure to them confidence and credit, as well as ample business in depo sits, loans, and discounts ; and their rigid exclusion of every kind of mercantile and speculative transaction, affords a satisfactory guarantee to the community at large that their means are only employed in legitimate banking operations. They are under the management and con troul of men who are elected by the respective proprietors, who have no individual interest which can induce them to depart from an approved prudential course, and who are a safe and constant check upon every transaction and upon every officer in the several establishments; and their sys• tem of accounts is so accurate that there is little trouble in producing, at any time, a clear and full statement of their stock and business, however great the cne or extensive the other." It is intended, as far as m y be practicable, to allow a graduat , d scale of interest on deposits; and while none of the best parts of the system pursued by London Private Bankers will be over-looked, it is proposed to give such otlo r f wilities to the public as have been afforded with so much advantdee to all classes by Joint Stock Banks in Scotland, and by the various similar Establishments more recently formed in England and Ireland. • It is proposed that the Bank shall be designated "The Lonthdi and Westminster Bank," and that the establishment shall be Mrthwith formed in the City, and for the accom modation of the Fublic a Branch Bank will be simultane ously established at th , ,, West end of the town. It will he in the discretion of the Directors, under the deed of constitution, to establish other branches wher it may be ileetned expedient. The capital shad be 0,000,000/., divided into 100,000 shares of 100/. each, in order that the mercantile end trading community an I the public in general, who may become proprietors, may, by this extensive distribution of shares, acquire an interest in the prosperity of the establishment, and participate in its advantages. Five pounds per share will be, ie. the first instance, payable by those becoming proprietors, to five of the un dermentioned Committee as Trustees, according to direc tions which will hereafter - be conveyed to them individu ally, and should a further call at any future period be re quired, it will be made under the sanction of the Directors and t;-e deed of constitution, and after three months public notice. No subscriber holdiug a smaller number than thirty shares shall be eligible to be elected a Director. A General Meeting of the Proprietors will be held in each year, at which a statement of the affairs of the Bank will be submitted. The deed of constitution will contain all the ususl and necessary clauses. The present Committee, with power to add to their number, ie compo.ed of— The Most Noble the Marquis of BUTE. The Right Hon.

A MOST DISTRESSING CASE.--PREMA TURE LABOUR, IN THE STREET.—On Wednesday morn n2, about eight o'clock, a female of the most wretched appearance, destitute even of the necessary articles to cover her nakedness, was observed going from house to house apparently soliciring alms. It turned out, however, that she was making known her situation (being then in the pains of labour), and begging temporary accommodation during her confinement, which was invariably refused, owing, perhaps to the miserable and dirty appearance of the unfortunate app!icant. Having reached Charles street, Westminster-road, being then quite exhausted, and evidently in great pain, she fell on the pavement, and gave birth to a living child ! The prompt and humane attendance of Mr. Hooper, of the London-road, and the praiseworthy assistance of the respectable females near the shot, procured for the poor woman whatever assistance could then he rendered. She was eventually placed in a returned chaise, which happened to be passing at the time, and removed to the workhouse, where she iS now. She is expected to recover. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Auousr 22. TITHES STAY OF SUITS BILL. , Mr. D. W. HARVEY, in continuation from The Sun of yesterday, said— If they did not belong to the Church, they did not be. long to the landlord, but they were a property which he was sorry to see a disposition in that House to fritter away; and he was very sorry to see landlords endeavouring to excite those feelings and produce those results which were now working in Ireland. He was one who would stand up for tithe property, and he viewed with appre hension those assiduous attacks which were being made upon it. If they were to have a Bill, they ought to have an efficient one.—(Hear, bear.) The object of , it was to prevent adverse litigation till the next Session of Parliament. Now nothing could be done till Novem ber, and though he was against the Bill in principle, yet under all the circumstances, if they were to have such a 13;11 at all, he was an advocate for a Bill which would do away with all such proceedings as had been instituted within a given time. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he must congra tulate the Church and the Clergy on their new defender. The Hon. Member bad said no action could be brought unless it was upon a modus that could be clearly shown the parties had been in possession of for a series of years. Now he could tell the Honourable Member, a modus had been set aside within the last twa years, which was proved to have existed for more than a hundred years—it was proved that it had taken its origin in the reign preceding that of Edward I. New, he did not call that justice, but gross injustice, and contrary to all rules of jurisprudence, which had guided every civilized country. He did not see what good could result from suspending the proceedings under this Bill till the next session of Parliament. He thought it was for the benefit of the Church that the Bill should pass, because they did not put an end to the suits, but merely staved them, while in the mean time Gentlemen would proceed with the Tithe Commutation Bill. Sir R. INGLIS did not know what the Hon. and Learned Solicitor-General meant by talking of the injus tice of a decision where a modus was set aside, because it was not traced back till the time of Richard the First's return from the holy wars. Neither did he understand the cheer with which it was received by the H•;use. That decision was according to the law. The Bill was a gross violation of the law, and the rights of parties. Mr. COBBETT said the Hon. Bart. talked largely of the injustice of the Bill, and as he was by office the de fender and advocateef the clergy, of coarse theargutnent was to be taken as theirs. Now, he had a precedent for the Bill, and one too to which the clergy were parties. In 1796, or 1797, upwards of 1,000 actions were commenced in the King's Bench against clergymen for penalties for non-resi dence, and what did the clergy do? Come forward and pay the penalties, and so stop the suit? No, they cam:: before the then Parliament, and got the actions stayed for a year. Next year the same, and the text year again. Then in 1802 Parliament did what he hoped that House would do next session, quash the actions entirely, and as they re lieved the clergy frotn the penalties, now relieve the peoele from the payment of tithes. It was idle to talk of its being an invasion of the principles of law, for the case was one of strong necessity. Mr. W. BROUGHAM agreed with Hon. Members that the Bill was an infraction of the law ; but he would ask, was it not a case of the strongest necessity ? The number of actions had been multiplied so enormously, tat great injustice must be the consequence if the Bill were not passed.—(Hear, hear.) He was informed that in the Exchequer alone there bad been upwards of 4,000 writs issued within the last two years, making with those in other Courts 8,000 in all—if ever there was a case of stern necessity that was it. He would ask what right the Rector of Kendal hod to 10,0001. a year of tithe', he must he beat in nine out of every ten of the actions. It was clear that they had only been sum moned in order to save the right which otherwise Lord Tenterden's Act would have taken away. He should be sorry to interfere between justice and those who would have brought their actions, if Lord Tenter. den's Act had never passed, but as the suits in question had been instituted, as he believed, merely for the pur pose of defeating the operation of that Act, the easiest, fairest, and most convenient method of proceeding would be, to suspend them till next session, or some more dis tant period. Mr. AGLIONBY explained. Mr. LYNCH extended his amendment to six months from the Ist day of February last. Mr. BLAMIRE said it was almost impossible to state precisely, until the returns were laid on the table, the exact number of suits which had been instituted under the Act ; but he knew from the communications which he personally had with different parts of the country, that thirteen counties were in the state he had before described, and that the number of suite would probably turn out to be not less than 9,000. The amendment was then put and agreed to. The clause, as amended, was then ordered to stand part of the Bill. In place of the 4th clause, which was omitted, Mr. LYNCH proposed one to this effect:—That for any party or parties to a suit or suits which had been suspended, should there be danger of injuring their claims in consequence of material evidence in favour of it being liable to be lost in consequence of the suspension of the suits, it should be lawful, to the extent of that evidence, to proceed so far in the suit. The amendment, with a verbal amendment extending it to actions at law, as well as suits in Chancery, was then agreed to, and ordered to stand part of the Bill. On the preamble being put, Mr. TOOK proposed a proviso that the Bill should not apply to actions or suits which had been bona fide set down for hearing before the bill had passed. Mr. WARBURTON, Mr. K. TYNTE, and Mr. O'REILLY opposed the clause. Lord ALTHORP said it would very much interfere with the clauses and main objects of the Bill. Mr. TOOKE thereupon withdrew the amendment. The preamble was agreed to; the House resumed ; the Chairman brought up the report, which was received and ordered to be further considered to-morrow. On the motion of Mr. STANLEY the Lords' amend ments to the Slavery Abolition Bill were read a second time. The House then went into Committee on the Infir maries (Ireland) Bill, Mr. EWA RT in the chair. The several clauses were agreed to, with trifling verbal amendments. Mr. WALKER moved the addition of a new clause as to the qualifications and payment of medical men. Mr. WARBURTON objected to the clause, as it only went partially to remove restrictions upon medical men, and he hoped early next Session that all the restrictions would be removed by one Bill. Mr. O'REILLY objected to the clause. After some further discussion, between Mr. Walker, Mr. S. Rice, Mr. O'Reilly, and Mr. Warburton, the clause was ordered to be added to the Bill. The House then resumed, and the report ordered to be received to-morrow. Mr. COBBETT rose to make the follewing motion, " that there be laid before this House a return of all per sons who we re imprisoned in Great Britain in virtue of the Act of 1817, (57 Geo. 8, chap. 3) stating with regard to each person, separately, Ist, his name ; 2ndly, his place of abode, at the time of his arrest; 3d, the prison or different pri sons in which he was confined ; 4th, the date of his commitment; sth, the date of his discharge from prison; 6th, the ground of his commitment; and 7th, the name or names of the persona who signed hie com mitment;" also, for a copy of a circular letter which was addressed by Lord Viscount Sidmouth to the Lords Lieutenant of Counties, and which was dated " Whitehall, 27th March, 1817 ;" also for a copy of the letter which was addressed by the said Lord Vis count Sidmouth to the Earl of Derby, dated 21st Aug., 181 9, "directing the said Earl to thank the Magistrates who acted at Manchester on the 16th August, 181 D, where and when many of his Majesty's subjects were f killed ah i w o o t tnded."

Mr. COBBETT said, in rising to bring forward his motion relative to the report of the committee on Younge's petition against Popay the spy, it was not his intention to say anything that might irritate or annoy his Majesty's Ministers. The people ought, and he believed were satis fied with the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers, as far as related to the inquiry upon that petition, at least as far as the matter had already gone. But it ought not to stop at the point of inquiry.-:--the Ministers were expected to do something more. Every allegation in the petition had been proved to the satisfaction of the Committee, and, as the members of that Committee would declare, the wit nesses in support of the petition had behaved in the most correct and proper manner. It must be in the recollec tion of the House, that Sir Charles Wolsley had been 'imprisoned and fined for using words much less sedi tious than those used by Popay, and certainty with no ouch base and despicable intention; and yet this Popsy—this criminal—was walking about. the streets apparently without the slightest fear of punishment. The people would naturally ask whether this was proper or just; and if this man ought not to be prosecuted for sedition :—if not, justice would not be done, and the Solicitor- General would not be doing his duty.— (Hear, hear.) if he were not prosecuted, the people would say that the Government was anxious to screen these wretches, or was afraid to proceed against them lest they should reveal something which might affect the Government. The crime could be proved—the wit nesses were ready—and why not have the criminal brought before the Jury ? Before the Committee he had mole such a shuffling defence, that every Member was convinced of his guilt.—(Hear, hear.) If, then, this man should escape, what would be the opini.n of the people? This was all he should say on that subject, hut leave his Majesty's Ministers to do wh at, after such statements, they might think was right. But Popay was not the only man who should be punished. The superintendent, Maclean, had been guilty of the greatest prevarication before the Committee. Az first he denied having paid the spy any money hut was afterwards obliged to confess that he had paid lint money. His evidence was all a shuffle from beginning to end. This was the superintendent who dismissed the cowkeeper so cavalierly when the latter complained that a police sergeant bad feloniously stolen his milk. A pretty sample this was, of what might be expected from these worthies forming it rural police; why, they might as well send down as many milk maids into the country, for there would not he a cow left unmilketi by these precious rural guardians. (Hear, and a laugh.) It was all too much of a piece in these police matters, for Popay was unpunished, and M'Lean, and the felon who stole the milk, still retained their situations. He had seen the inatket gardener who saw the police sergeant steal the milk, and had seen the cowkeeper, and would pledge himself to prove the facts. All he wanted was to state these facts to his Majesty's Ministers, it) the hope of their taking some steps in t he matter before the commencement of the next Session He could not, however, sit down without mentioning the case of Mr. William Dean. In doing this he must say that the Commissioners had not conducted themselve before the committee in the manner that was expected. It was they who brought up the name of Mr. Dean in the committee ; for Mr. Dean had nothing to do with the committee. The commissioners introduced his name by saying that they had dismissed him, after two years service, for some observations he had made re lative to the Calthorpe-street affair. Mr. Dean might have acted indiscreetly in what he had said with reference to Lord Melbourne, and to the proceedings of the Jury ; but however this was, the commissioners acknowledged that they had dismissed him from the Police, into which he entered with a most excellent character, and after he had satisfactorily fulfilled the du ties of sergeant—they confessed that they had dismissed that man without putting him upon his defence, or con fronting him with his accusers. This he (Mr. CoViett) considered to be a grievous wrong, and a showing of in defensible partiality, for if Bartlett, who stole the milk, was kept in the police, surely this respectable man ought not to have been dismissed for a hasty, inconsiderate, or indiscreet expression. He should leave the criminals he had mentioned in the hands of the Solicitor-Ge neral and only call on the House to aid him in an inquiry into the affair of William Dean. The Hon. Member concluded by moving for a copy of the order dis missing William Dean from the police. Colonel EVANS, althoueh he had great objections to the system of eolice, felt it his duty to bear testimony to the unimpeachable characters of both the Commissioners, especially Colonel Rowan, with whom he was personally acquainted. As to the case of the spy which had been adverted to by the Hon. Member for Oldham, a clearer case, he thought had never been made out, and he could not believe that the superintendent was igno rant of the man's procceedings. He concurred en tirely in the object of the motion of the Hon. Member for Oldham, that Government would take into considera tion the propriety of visiting this man's eonduct with something further than dismissal. With respect to Mac lean, he must say that he did not consider him fit to hold the situation he did in a free country. He understood that he was in the habit of employing sometimes as many as twenty persons: in plain clothes ; such conduct could not be too strongly deprecated, and he must say that it tended greatly to increase the prejudices be had to the system. The expense, too, was much greater, the whole expense of the watch, in time districts where the police were now s•ationed cost 137,0001., the police force, however, during the last year, had cost no less than 215,000/. There was no doubt great objection to the old system, but in his opinion it only required modi fication. Such a course hart beet' adopted in the City of London, and had been productive of time best effect.— (Hear, hear.) There were also very just complaints with respect to the vigilance of the police; robberies were continually being committed, the perpetrators of which could not be discovered, and the servant of a friend of his was time other night robbed near St. Martin's church, when no policeman was to be found. It would be well worthy the consideration of Government whether a modi fication could not take place in the lei ce, such, for instance, as giving some control to the local authorities. Mr. LAMB said, that with regard to the case alluded to by the Hon. Member for Wham, he certainly was of opinion that it was one calling for the interference of the Secretary of State. The proof of Popay being a spy was certainly very complete, with the exception of that part of it which related to the assassination, but he had been advised that he could not prosecute him in Court, unless be relied on the odium that generally attended spies —for that reason he did not think it his . duty to prosecute him, but he wished it to be clearly uuderstood,that he was dismissed from the Force altogether. He had certainly seen Luab, and he would make it his business to s ee hi m aga i n, that he m i ght ma k e st i ll more particular inquiry. Upon the whole, be did not think there was sufficient evidence, without further inquiry, to call for the immediate discharge of the superintendent. With regard to Mr. Wm. Dean, whose gravamen of offence vas that of having expressed very strung opinions respecting the Calthorpe meeting where he was not pre present, when he was examined his language was so violent as to induce a belief that his mind was affected. As to what had been said by the Gallant Officer about policemen being employed in plain clothes, it cer tainly did appear that twenty of them hail been so em ployed at different times for the purpose of detecting felonies, but the twenty had never been employed all a one time. It was to be recollected that before this force was formed at all, all the officers that were employed were nothing more nor less than policemen in plain clothes. It had been very much considered by Sir Robert Peel, whether they ought to wear uniform or not, and upon the whole it was considered better that they should wear uniform. Although this, however, had been decided upon, y e t i t wou ld b e i mposs ibl e to l eave o ff wear ing plain clothes altogether. 01 course attention was to b e paid to the expense of the police : the accounts were regularly laid on the table, and it was to be hoped the rates in future would not press so heavily as to be the souree of that w hi c h h e bel i eve d to b e the only , cause of prejudice that had existed against the police. Mr. WARBURTON thought the Hon. Member for • . . been brought forward. He considered Maclean's conduct to he such as to deserve severe censure, and he doubted much whether he ought to be continued in the service. With regard to the conduct of the Commissioners in their peremptorily dismi‘sing any person, he thought it was but proper that they should have such a power ; and, look ing at Dean's conduct, he could not say that he had been improperly dismissed. The Hon. Member for Oldham had certainly proved a strong case of bold espionage against Popsy and he was very properly dismissed. The reports which that man was constantly_ making to his superiors ought to have convinced them that he was greatly ex ceeding his duty, for it appeared that he reported the speeches of one of the Non. Members for Southwark, and another for Middl, sex at public meetings, and he ought to have been checked in his course log ago. Mr. HAWES said the House and the public ought to feel indebted to the Hun. Member for Oldham for the manner in which he had brought those proceedings for ward. There was no doubt that Popay well deserved the appellation of a spy, and he thought that the superintend ent was very remiss in his duty fur not exercising proper vigilance over Popay. He thought, however, it was not proved that Pop)) , had pryed into the secrets of private life, but he certainly attended meet ings of the National Union and others. He defended the sending policemen in plain clothes, but only as a matter of occasional necessity. With respect to the Commissionerl;, he knew of no two men of more honourable characters.—(Hear.) He could not, however, think that the superintendent M'Lean discharged his duty efficiently in not checking Popay, and preventing his attending public meetings. As to the expense of the new police, the Hon. and Gallant Officer (Col. Evans) had underrated the real amount of the old police, for the Trustees of the Roads paid the expense of watching those roads formerly, which the public did not know the amount of, whereas those roads were now watched by the new police. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he approved of the dismissal of Popay, against whom such a case had been established, that it would be disgraceful to continue him on the police. He took issue on one thing, viz. that he had never attended in the character of Chairman (); a meeting of the Union of the working classes, and it was distinctly proved that he had. Whether any further punishment should be inflicted upon him or not, was a different thing. The House should recollect what a flagellation he had got from the Hon. Member for Old ham and others.—(Laughter.) He hoped, therefore, that Hon. Member would see that all it was necessary to do had been done. Lord HOTHAM said, as regarded the blame attri buted to M‘Lean, the superintendent, it ought to be equally shard by the Commissioners and the Government, for it appeared that Pope) , gave his reports to the superintendent, who transmitted them through the Commissioners to the Government.—(Hear.) He would not pretend to say that the present police s)s tern was perfect, liwt the weight of testimony was de cidedly in its favour, and he only wondered that it could so conduct itself as to render itself liable to so few complaints. Mr. COBBET I', in reply, accused the Commissioners of prevarication, but admitted that they m'ght have been led into it purely from laziness, in not reading the reports made to them. He only accused them of laziness, and not knowing the nature of the wretch they were employing; and, indeed, they had themselves confessed they had not read all the reports sent to them. He did not find fault with them for dismissing Dean, fur undoubtedly that man had been guilty of great indiscretion in speaking of Lord Mel bourne and the C,lthorpe-street affair as be had done ; but he complained of his dismissal for such a compirative trifle, whilst the policeman who was now proved to have stolen the milk was still retained in the force. The Solicitor- General had said that it was too much to give both " floggee" and "preachee" too; but he (Mr. Cobbe.t) had had both "floggee" and " preach"e" too.— Not very far from where he stood he had bad " Preachee, preachee," for six hours, and afterwards been imprisoned for two months for expressing his indignation at the flogging of Englishmen, which every body agreed ought now to cease.—(A laugh.) " But," said the Hon. Member, " I don't complain ; here I am, I have outlived twelve Attorney-Generals."--(Laughter, in which Mr. Cobbett himself heartily joined.) He withdrew his motion. TAXATION. General PALMER then rose to move the following resolutions : let. That the present system of taxation has the effect of greatly enhancing the prices to consumers, and particularly to the laborious and working classes, of all the comforts, and even the necessaries of life. First, by the direct effect of taxes on articles of use and con. sumption. secondly, by the expenses of collection. Thirdly, by the extensive and expensive . arrangements for the prevention of illicit trade. Fourthly, by the various per centages added by the pro ducers, merchants, manufacturers and dealers, and Fifthly, by the effects which the foregoing accumulations produce upon the prices of all other articles in the reciprocal action of price acting upon price through the whole series both of taxed and untaxed articles of use and consumption. 2d. That notwithstanding the high prices of corn and other necessaries in this country, such high prices are not, owing to the circumstances stated in the foregoing resolution, sufficiently remunerative to the landed and other classes, upon whose en terprize, capital, and exertion, the supply of the community depends. 3d. That whilst the high prices of corn and other necessa ries of life are not, for the reasons assigned in the foreving resolution, adequately remunerative to the landed and other classes, upon whose enterprize, capital, and exertion, the supply of the community depends; they are yet dreadfully oppressive and ruinous to active industry ; the real, strength, and wealth of the country. 4th. That both direct and indirect taxes on wages, on the profits of trade, manufactures, or commerce, on the earnings of practitioners in the learned professions, or of persons skilled in polite, scientific, or mechanical pursuits, are impolitic, oppressive, and unjust, and injure to an unnecessary extent the community at large, without ultimately and permanently benefitting any class. sth. That a tax or charge upon all property would be free from most of the consequences mentioned in the preceding re solutions; would in the lowest degree affect the cost of articles supplied by the landed and other classes for the use of the corn mun ty, and would secure to the suppliers the most beneficial returns. Gth. That it is expedient to create a charge, by an equal and rateable per centage upon all property, equal to the amount of the public debt, or of the annuity, interest, and expenses payable in respect thareof, repealing at the same time an amount of the most oppressive and injurious existing taxation, proportionate thereto. 7th. That it would be highly beneficial to the community at large, and especially so to the landed and other proprietors, if all the then remaining duties and taxes on articles of use and consumption were to be repealed, and the Civil, Military, and miscellaneous expenses of the State raised within each current year by an annual tax on realized property. _ _ His only reason for making the motion was that the infor mation might be laid on the table of that House, so that Hon. Members might be prepared to discuss the subject at the ensuing session. A message from the Lords brought down several Bills, agreed to by their Lordships. MARSHAL OF KINGS' BENCH. Lord TULL AMORE rose to refer to a statement that bad appeared respecting what he had said about the Mar shall of the Court of King's Bench, and to which his at tention had been directed by a letter he had that day re ceived. It was not correct that he had himself maintained the charge brought against the Marshall, on the presentation of the petition ; he was not himself responsible for the allega tions contained in the petition, and all be had said was that the petitioner was ready to prove the allegations at the bar of that House, or before a Committee. He found that in 1828 Earl Grey presented a petition of the same kind to Parliament, and his Lordship then stated that that gentleman was a respectable man—that he was a man of credit, and that it was in consequence of his re spectability that he had been induced to present the peti tion. The charges that he (Lord T.) had brought against the Marshal were those of cruelty, and abuses of the powers confided to him. An Hog. MEMBER, whose name we could not learn, moved, as this was a subject seriously affecting the cha racter of the Mirshal, and as he therefore considered, requiring a fuller House for its discussion, that the House be counted, and there not being a sufficient number of Members present, the House adjourned at twenty-six minutes before six. ROUSE OF LORDS, Avevir 22. When the LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack, Mr. SPRING Rica, and oebers from the Commons, ROMAN CATHOLIC MARRIAGE BILL. On the Muse going into Committee upon the Roman Catholic Marriage Bill, Lord WYNFORD moved as an amendment that it should be unlawful for Roman Catholic Clergymen to celebrate any other marriages than they could before the passing of the Bill. H. (lid not interfere upon his own authority, but upon the suggestion of the highest autho rity in Ireland. After a few words from Lord PLUNKET and the (pis Of CLANRICARDE, Lord WYNFORD withdrew his amendment, and an amendment moved by the Earl of Wicklow was agreed to, which was to the effect that nothing in the Bill should render valid anything that is at present involved in the marriage laws of Iveland. Report ordered to be received to- morrow. FACTORIES BILL Lord AUCKLAND stated that be Nag ordered by the Committee on the Factories Bill to lay upon the table the Bill, with amendments. He moved that the Bill, as amended, be printed, and committed for to-morrow. CHINA TRADE BILL. The China Trade Bill was read a third time, and passed. IRISH TITHE BILL. The Irish Tithe Bill was ordered to be read a second time to-morrow, and committed for Monday. The Stamps Forgery Bill was read a second time, and committed for Saturday. On the maion of the Earl of WICKLOW, the Irish Jury Bill, with amendments, was ordered to he printed. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS. The LORD CHANCELLOR rose to state shortly to the House the outline of a Bill which lie proposed to bring in upon the above subject, and the first reading of which he intended to move this day. The Bill was intended to regulate the municipal affairs of those boroughs, thirty in number, which, ❑nder the provisions of the Reform Bill, had the privilege of sending Members to Parliament, but which bad not as yet proper municipal constitutions. There could be no doubt of the importance of the subject, or of the necessity for a system of regulation for the bo roughs in question ; and he was sure that it would have their Lordships' full and deliberate attention and consider ation. The whole population of the boroughs which this Bill was to regulate amounted to upwards of 1,200,000, and the number of persons qualified under the late Reform Act to vote for the election of Members of Parliament was between 58,000 and 60,000. The boroughs them selves were for the moat part situated in parts of the coun try where the iron and other important branches of trade were carried on, such as Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Stoke-upon-Trent, Halifax, Wakefield, ; there were others in other parts of the country, such as Cheltenham, Bright behnstone, Chelmsford, Frome, Strcud, fee. The general principle which regulated the Bill was, that the qualifi cation which, under the provisions of the Reform Bill, gave to an elector the right of voting in the election fur the representative to Parliament, should, under the pro visions of the present Bill, confer upon him a right to vote in the election of municipal magistrates : and the boundaries under that Act would regulate the franchise under this Bill. Thus those who possessed the right of voting for Members of Parliament would vote in the election of magistrates in these corporations, and the boundaries would be the same as those called the Parlia mentary boundaries. To the voters under those provi sions would be given the right of electing the Common Council in each town, arid fur facilitating that object, each town would be divided into wards, on the same principle as regulated such division in the Scotch burghs, under the provisions of the Bill which he (Lord Brougham) had the honour of submitting to their Lordships a short time since. The next provision of the Bill which he thought it necessary to mention to the House was, that it was pro posed that the common councilmen, when elected in the manner b 1 fore stated, should have the choosing from their own body of the Board of aldermen ; and on this he must observe that the practice would be different from that which prevailed in the election of magistrates for the city of London, where the aldermen were elected by the votes of the constituency, in the same way as the common council, instead of being chosen by the Is ter, as proposed by this Bill.—(Hear, hear.) Differently from that mode, that the Common Council would now be first chosen by the electors, and they would then proceed to choose the Board of Aldermen. In addition to this he would observe that the Common Council were to be chosen for three years, while the Aldermen would be elected to hold their• offices for life, except in cases where specified disqualifications should occur. The same Com mon Council would also choose the 'Mayor, to hold his office for one year. There was one most important officer still remaining, the mode of appointing whom would differ from that pursued in nominating the others: this officer (the Recorder) would be in the nomination ofthe Crown, and theme were many reasons, which need not be detailed , which had influenced him (the Lord Chancellor) in so providing for the appointment of that officer. The body of magistrates chosen under the above provisions would be the municipal authorities of the town, and they would have two branches of duty to perform—the one would be the administration of justice, and the other the regulation of the police. With respect to the first of these duties, several regulations were made by the Bill, some of which be would refer to. The quarter sessions would be holden in the same mode and at the same times as were at present Foy : Atli, and the magisterial body would consist of the officers above referred to, with the addition of the county magistrates, who he (the Lord Chancellor) considered ought to have a concurrent jurisdiction with the town authorities. The Recorder would preside at these sessions, end would, of course, afford the advantage of the learning and ability which would be the necessary qualifi. cations for his office ; and that officer would, of course, not practise in his profession, either at the sessions or the assizes. The quarter sessions, instead of being confined to being holden once a-quarter, might, by the authority of his Majesty, he holden oftener, according to his pleasure as to time; and the object of this enactment would be to do away with an inconvenience which now existed in the awarding of punishment to offenders tried at the Quarter Sessions. By the present practice, in consequence of the long interval between the several holdings of the Quarter Sessions, the length of time during which a prisoner was confined previously to trial was subsequently deducted from the full amount of punishment awarded to him upon his trial. The results proceeding from this course were, that it frequently appeared to the public (not aware of the above-mentioned deductions) that crimes of a comparatively setious nature were followed by too trifling nth uTtincteinott; nssmuch as the proposition inflicted after e th e e ti r eyes was awarded; while, on the otherhhau of the previous confinement was all which hand, that a length of interval, it unfortunatelyu ,atpoPbse innocent, wee pri soner, who might afterwards turn t from t the rams until the n e xt ,„. To obviate the evils arising fro•t► sitting of the session wal at the pleasure of his ill.tjestv f this practice, the r enewal d had 't • " sessions in tie manner he state been Noer tirese sessions d on. It had originally been intended that tlit 1 mine • visited with the punishment imp°risonment
