Whatever tbe English Consti tution may be in 11Iackstottiand Monteiquieu,, in practice tbe representation Isla always been a farce. We believe tha t there is more independence and more honesty in t h e country at the present mornant than ever there was, and that the representation partakes of the general improvement. rho Prench are in circumstances which enable them to give; an honest vote; an Englishman is as naturally inclined to what is right as a Vrenehman or any other matt, Ibut he dares not he honest or independent., During the time of 'the Commonwealth, many able men, in this country turned their attention to the elate; of the repres e nt a ti on . They saw in the distribution of property in this country an insuperable impedi ment in the way of Parliamentary GoVernment. In ; a very curious volume " written by Richard Baxter, at the invitation of James Harrington, Esq.," pith tidied in 1639, on " The True Principles of 00, , vernment," the author is unable to discover any means of rescuing the peoßle from the thraldom' of those who have an interest in deceiving them. " It is well known (he says) that in most parts, the major vote of ; the vulgar that are choosers,. are tgnorant, seltish,"of private spirits, ruled' by money, anti therefore by their landlords, and . other great and powerful men. It it therefore apparent that if they had their liberty, they would choose such as are of their minds. It is known that in the late elections, the exclusion of delinquents, and the countenance of the times made terrible by many late successes against all sorts of enemies, and the preaent 'existence of the army that bath so prevailed, bath been their restraint, so that they thirst not go according to their inclinations. It is known that the restrained gentry, with those that are enemies to serious holy living accord ing to the Christian rules, are in must places strongest in popular interest, having most tenants and mast of the affections of the vulgar . and that they can this day, .tvere they but its free from . fear of sufferings as others, bring more voices into' the field in most places than any others can; and that even many well-meaning honest Men are' of Cowardly spirits, and dare not displease their landlord.. or great neighbours, but will vote with the etrongest side." The evils that the men who really wished 'tlhe good of their country at that time had to ni with were, the ignomece of the ' people' and tl4ir cowardice—the very evils that still prevail, though perhaps in a less degree. Baxter was favourable to the ballot, - as a remedy against their cowardice, though he had doubts as to the poisibility of se curing the elections against juggling tricks under the ballot, but with respect to their , ignorance he wan driven to argue in a vicious circle. "We must have our dyes, the matter of our republic first re formed," he says; but he had more faith in descrip tions and oaths than experience would warrant us in having now. As to the mode of voting, be observes— " The confusion that is now at elections is very great, and without abundance of cost to the country or the elected gentlemen so great a ►multitude cannot be brought to the poll ; which, if they be nut, the unrapable rout may intrude and carry it. And, therefore, for every pa rish or hundred either to send in their written votes by officers, or rather to send their sworn deputies with porker to vote in their stead, will more orderly despatch the work and with much less charge and trouble. Every deputy may bring in a list of the names which he representeth; a parish of an hundred men shall have the voices of an bun dled; and he or they that represent a parish of a thousand men shall have the voices of as many. Where there is danger least the greatness of any overawe the people from their liberties, the ballot is somewhat the safer way than the open vote; and yet not much—both because jugglers by slight of hand might convey in five for one; and ape !►ally because these great men will, before-hand, be en gaging the people to promise them their suffrages, and they dare not deny the promise if they are such as dare not deny them their vote." We have no cause then , to envy the times to which we are alluding. Baxter sums up the inde pendence of England at that time in the declaration that. "the people ordinarily choose, such as their landlords do desire them to choose; and therefore it will go according to the quality of the iand/oras, and not according to the quality of the people." We have certainly made some way since that. time in knowledge and independence. In the number of the Westminste r Review just published, there is a most masterly article on the ballot, in which the Writer demonstrates in the most unanseierable man ner the necessity of the, measure with At view to in dependent voting, and suggests as one of the con sequences such an improvement in, the .character: of both high and low as would deprive the indepen deuce of suffrage of its. dangerous qualities. As this view of the question has never, as far as we know, been before taken, WO shall draw the attention of our readers to it at present, leaving for another PC. the arguments on the necessity , for the ballot, &e. " It is alittrolantly certain (observes the writer) that the exaction of promlees Would soon be abandoned, and voting would be no pure of faliehood as it wouldhe.oftlepeml e nce. • 'Nor would this be the only moral effect of secret voting ; it would have others of the greatest extent and importance. This, undoubtedly, is one of the most ink renting points of view in which the subject can be con sidered. Take away from the men of property the poWer of obtaining the suifreges of the people by improper mails, and you may deem it certain diet they will immediately apply themselves to the obtaining them by proper means. ".The evidence of this, we think, is incontestible. Thu moment it was seen that the people gave their suffrages only to those whom they regarded, as boot endowed with 'the qualities which fit men for the duties of Jegislation, the 'nen of property would exert themselves to attain and to display those qu a liti es . 'They wou ld t h en h ave a motive for their attainment, of which at present they are nearly desti. tuts. Stores of knowledge, habits of mental application, of talf.denial, of preferring the public interest to the private interest,. whenever there is Incompstibility , between them, are not easily acquired; and never will be sequfrelqbating remarkable exceptions) by those who have not a strong motive to acquire them. - • " We think that putting the &cilia suffrage on a pro per footing would afford that motive to the men of property in England. Men of property love distinction ; hot the dis tinction of property, where it is not connected with poli. tics! power, or strongly associated:with th e id e a of it, is insignificant. The great desire of men of property, therefore, always will be for the distinction connected with public sdrvicee. But if they had an adequate motive for the ac quialtion, i n a aupeijor degret, of the high men t a l qualities, which fit-forn for the discharge of public duties, 'lt •Cannilt badindrtid that th e y h ave grea t and peculiar advantages for the aecomplishment their purpose. Other men, ev e n those who ar e no t con fi ne d to mechanical drudgery, are under the necessity of employing the greater part of their lives in earning the. mewed subeistence , or independence. The men who are horn to a property, , which places them above such necessity, can employ the whole of their liver, in acquiring the knowledge, the talents, and the virtues which, would entitle them to the confidence of their low-cltiiene.

The nrticle then shows that the rich would take pains to forward the improvement of the people. But we shall return to this subject.—.2lforning Chronicle. This evening the Beer. Bill is to be committal in the House of Lords, when the Duke of RichmOnd intends to move the introduction of a clause to Pre vent the consumption of the beer upon the premises of the houses to be licensed under the new law. Without such a clause, we do not hesitate to affirm that the Bill will go forth to the world as one of the most unjust and pernicious measures which the ibis taken zeal of legislative improvement has in modern times engenderedunjust with respect to the vested interests of a large number of individuals, and per nicious as regards the mo ra l s o f t h e people. Distil these positions are easily established on grounds that neither have nor can be refuted. As to the in- justice of the measure, we have only to ascertain what the law has been under which the property of the licensed victuallers has grown up to the present enormous amount of upwards of thirty millions. We shall find that that law, which has been in existence ever since the reign of Edward VI., limited the erection of alehouses, by making it requisite that the applicant for a license should prove that the house was necessau for the accommodation of the public, and should also produce testimonials of character, — This law, which, though modified at various times, remained the same i n pri n cipl e , was t h e result of that wisdom which is taught by experience. The retail .trade in beer had been placed! under no re str!ctions by the common law—the consequence was that alehouses multiplied to an extent that became a public nuisance, and the' Legislature found it necessary, for the interests of society, to interfere, and devise the means Of restrain ing their growth within proper and reasonable limits. •What could be more proper and reasonable than that their number should be confined to those that were absolutely _required for public accoMmoda tion, and that they should be kept by persons of good character ? Everybody knows that an unne cessary public-house, or one kept by a person reck less of character, is the greatest nuisance with which a neighbourhoed can be afflicted, whether as regards the morals and public peace, or the value of conti guous property. The law, which was established as a measure of public protection against the mis chiefs which the unrestricted creation of public houses occasioned, was the cause of persons of sub stance and respectability embarking their capital in that trade. '1 hey did so on the faith of those Acts of Parliament, which, while they introduced formal alterations Into the original law of Edward VI., preserved its principle as a permanent part of the Constitution. On the faith of those Acts of Par liament property was invested in public-houses, and became so valuable as to constitute an important portion of the whole capital of the realm —or about the hundredth part of the whole property of the United Kingdom.. It is ascertained that the Bill will affect upwards of 50,000 families, and both directly and indirectly, depreciate property to the extent of from . 80 to 100 millions. Here are vested interests suddenly destroyed, and no compensation offered; yet, when legal reforms are proposed, or the abolition of the rights of property iu slaves, or any other great measure of justice and humanity, the same Government, that so unfeelingly invades the property of 50,000 families without offering the least compensation, talks of the necessity of first making a provision for vested claims, and of con suiting justice in effecting improvement. It has beet' justly observed by a sensible writer on this subject that " the present Chancellor of the Exche quer is the first man who has had the boldness to attempt such an inroad on the property of indivi duals. Hitherto property has been held sacred in this country, but the humble station of the selected objects for ruin secures him from the defeat with which the sugar and spirit interests have overwhelmed him." The Chancellor of the Exchequer has endeavoured to carry with him the popular favour by taking ad vantage of the offences committed by a small por tion of the body of publicans; but in this be has not succeeded, for, out of about three hundred peti tions which have been presented on the subject, only eight are in favour of the Bill. When, for the public benefit, individual property is interfered with, no instance is on record where compensation has riot been made. To say nothing of Government offices, look at the time of the union of the Legislatures of Great Britain and Ireland. An Act was passed ap pointing Commissioners to give compensation to the patrons of boroughs which were no longer to send Representatives to Parliament—the amount for each borough was not to exceed 15,0001., and, on reference to the Report of the said Commis sioners, it will be seen that the full amount maim rimed by the Act was in every instance awarded. Again, on the motion of Lord job Russell, in the House of Commons, on the 28th of May last, upon the subject of u R e f orm i n P ar li ament , which mo tion embraced a limited disfranchisement of boroughs, compensation was proposed by that Noble Lord to be made to the parties for the proposed sacrifice. Is it common justice, then, thus to hold out to the powerful that which is refused to the humble in& victuals who are now threatened with destruction ? Why is this destruction made ? Is it not that the Unprotected publican is powerless, whilst the owners of boroughs are all-powerful ? Many are the attempts which have been made upon the pro perty of public-houses ; but even the most stre nuous advocate for free.trado never until now con- Fielded to commit such sudden devastation. Re ferriag to the evidence taken before the Committee of the House of Commons on the 15th of March last, page .55, the witness, Mr. John Voutley, is asked, " In ease the trade was thrown open, have you contemplated any mode by which you think you could be protected, or any plan by which the alteration would fall upon you with less weight ?" The answer is, " Nu; I have not contemplated any plan, nor . could 1 take the liberty of sug gesting any thing to this Committee. I recollect some years ago meeting with Mr. Brougham in the hall of this building (he was a very strong ad vocate for free trade), I had a friend with me, and Mr. Brougham was kind enough to hold consider able conversation with us; we said we should be ruined; he said he would do it by degreesin seven or fourteen years ; it would.be too much not to have some regard to the immense capital embarked in our business. It is, in our opinion, difficult to say whether it, is more inconsistent or unjust thatithe Legislature should, as in the case .of compensation for the sacrifice of patronage of boroughs, allow of an equivalent for property not only not recognized by law, but established in opposition to the first principles of the Constitution, and yet deny it to individuals whose property has been honestly ob tained, and has been hitherto le ally protected I It is an exercise of authority in which there is an abuse of power and a defiance of all principle. So much for the injustice of the measure. Now let us for a moment look at its demoralizing tendency. Under the old law, testimonials of character were an in dispensable preliminary to the obtaining a licence. This was a guerainee to the public that the privi lege conferred by the licence would net be abused. It was in the nature of a preventive principle of poliee. It was a security to the neighbourhoed in which the alehouse was .to be established that it would degenerate Was nuisance, and it was a moral protection to the public. In this way it was looked at :by , Sir: Robert Peel, Mr. , Caleraft, and:other Legislators, only two yours ago, who, with ar most , iutrovid - disdain of consistency, advocated the pre >,etnt twill. was the language held by Mr. r e z v l i e ei ti g fit ylor o f. l : lli t ts h ,te t ocu 2 tr. l l.o e , t th of i c M eo t . ty Ar l .

Here it is--" An Hon. Member Nato asked why the sale of beer and spirits shoirld. not.. be put on the same footing as the sale of bread and cheese ? Nothing is more natural, upon a first view of the question, than that such should be' the case ; but, upon reflection, we must take into cOmiideration the different effects produced by the use of beer and spirits from the effects of the use of bread and cheese. It is unnecessary for me to state that the former, if taken to excess, produce intoxication,.and that, therefore, some regulation with respect to their sale is necessary. If we were to throw open the sale of beer and spirits in the manner alluded to by the Honourable Member, we should soon find it necessary to retrace our steps.— Let us look, for in s t ance , t o w h a t t a kes place in 'Devonshire, where the retail of cider is generally allowed—there there are continual complaints of the intoxication and disorder which that system pro duces." Now, we ask Sir Robert Peel whether he is prepared to say that the system of open trade in beer, which would, according to his own showing, have produced intoxication and disorder in 1828, Will not produce the same effects in 1830? or did he look with more horror upon the disgusting habit of drunkenness two years ago than he does at pre sent? Did he, two years ago, think the morals of the people worthy a Stateman's care, and does he now think them of no more consequence than the shifting doctrines of politicians ? Yes—he who uttered those sentiments which we have just quoted has since come forward to put the sale of beer on ,about the same footing as the sale of bread and cheese l—regardless of the "intoxication " and "dis order" which it may produce He who would oply allow men of character and some substance to retail beer, is now prepared to open that trade to every needy unprincipled adventurer who can pay two guineas for the liberty of doing so to the Board. of Excise! He cares not bow many hovels may be turned into alehouses, or how the most reprobate spe culators upon the vices of the poor may cover the land with the low receptacles of dissipation. It is true the license can be suspended, or even taken away, is cases of gross abuse; but will he who has neither property nor character to lose—who may be a tramper from the bush, er a convict from the hulks . will he be deterred by the dread of the law from pursuing that course to which he is stimulated by poverty, vicious habits, and desperation ? Certainly not--,or, if the whole multitude of those who obtain such licenses to-day are deprived of them to-morrow, will there not be a swarm ejusdem gencris to supply the vacant places, and to pursue the genie course of desperate and reckless immorality ? When occa sional abuses occur where there is the double gua rantee of property and of character, how will the mischief accumulate where there is the protection of neither 1 We should like to know why it was that, with very few exceptions, the Irish Members who had a meeting at the Thatched House, on the 29th of May last, and entered into resolutions to oppose the Government as to the proposed increase of duties on corn, spirits, and stamps in Ireland, voted with the Ministry on this measure of the Beer Bill, although, before the Ministers abandoned their projects with respect to those ad vanced imposts on Ireland, it was generally under stood they would vote against them on the Beer Bill also ? Was there no arrangement made by which one class were sacrificed to obtain the support of another ? Whether there was or not, this one thing is certain—that it was by the votes of the Irish Members the Chancellor of the Exchequer was secured from a total defeat on this Bill, as well as on his other measures, and thus a single ono of his financial projects has escaped the general rout and destruction. If the Bill must pass, we confi dently assert that the only remedy for the evil that we have pointed out is the introduction of such a clause as that of which the Duke of Richmond has given notice—a clause to prevent the beer being consumed en the premises of those people who ob tain a license for two guineas, and who have neither property nor character at stake to prevent them from grossly abusing this dangerous privilege—a privilege which, we have said before, should no more be free from restrictions than the trade in gun powder. Let the trade, if it must be so, be open, but let it be open in that way in which it can work least mischief to the morals of the poor. Let not the labouring man have additional temptations to waste his health,and squander his wages in tippling- houses ; compel him to take the beverage to his home and to his family, that it may be to him a bodily nutriment, and not a moral poison. Thus, and thus only, can the Legislature promote freedom of trade, without encouraging licentiousness of me rals.—Morning Herald. Mr. It. Grant brought forward his motion on Tues day night for an address to the Throne, to appoint a Regency in case of the demise of the Crown during the dissolution of Parliament, in, a speech replete with the eloquence, the sound sense, and the vigorous argument, which, on former occasions, we have so frequently remarked. Th e li on . ember pre faced his speech by disclaiming all intention of doing more in the course of his remarks on the question, than merely calling the attention of the House, and of the Crown, to the subject—a deli eau which he observed, so far as the subject would permit him, to the end of his address. The case on which be mainly rested the necessity of his motion was that of George 111., who, on the occasion of a slight illness in 1765, considered the interests of the kingdom, and the happiness of his people, so liable to be exposed to danger, in case of the demise of the Crown while the heir apparent was only an in fant, that he came to Parliament in person to urge the necessity of appointing a Regency. Such a line of conduct,' observed Mr. Grant, must have been approved of 'by his Majesty's responsible advisers`; " and now," added he, " reverting to this questi on , which the House is called on now to consider, and looking forward to a future event, which I am obliged to look forward ,to—the very contempla tion of which must cast sorrow into the mind of every man.-4 say, looking forward to that event with all the feelings that belong to it, I ask whe ther I am preposterous in supposing, or should be mistaken in fancying, that the Ministers who ad vised this speech made by George 111., had they 'been now the Counsellors of his illustrious descen dant, wquld have cordially advised the same subject now to be btought forward. I may be allowed to say, that the kingly feelings which George 111. ex bibited on the occasion, are such as never could be alienated from the breasts of any descendant of that august Personage. Sir, I humbly conceive that there would have been a peculiar propriety in the act to which I have referred. Had that application been renewed by the professional advisers of the Crow n , I say they would have done well in coun selling their Royal Master, immediately on the con clusion of the payment of respect to the mortal remains of the departed King, to have followed the example of his augost f a th er , ma ki ng his public rtp pearance in this House, and calling on it to consider the occasion and provide for its exigencies." The Honourable Member then proceeded to state, that, in the event of the demise of the Crown, after the dissolution of Parliament, and before the writs were returned - for the new Parliament—there were two continents, gto which they b a d t o l ook forward— . that of the Queen being enceinte, or the: ac cess i on of an infant Princess; and that, in either case, it became the House to make previous provision, iri order that the Censtitution of the country might not su ff er , no t its intereets at home or abroad be exposed to risk.. We recommend this part of .the speeclrof the Honourable Member to. the special attention of our readers. It is most argumentatiVef arid also, we will venture to add, most conclusive it to the policy which ought - to he parsued. , --nay, we think ono- swera hle a s to the absolute necessity of a pitivisional Regency, in order to preserve the kingdo m h om the various evils which he showed were lii t el y to accrue in case of such a step not being nd opte d Th e arguments of the opponents of the view token of the question by the lion. Member may all be reduced to one—namely, that the Ministry did _ _ . ta~rr ~ _l._ ~b not consider the appointment of a Regency now as a matter either of necessity or expediency, and that it would be much more, conveniently settled b/ a new Parliament than by the present ; the pl in reason we take to be one which none of the oppo nents chose to state, " and that is, a desire to retell' their places. In the event of the demise of the Crown the present Administration would possess the whole power of the kingdom during at least Six months from the date thereof; and every one knoWs that it is now in that precarious state, in conse quence of its generally recognized inefficiency, that the gaining of six, or even three months' time, must be a matter of great• importance to it—Hine like lachiynce—it is here that the shoe pinches, and this is the point at which, under cover of delicacy to , wards the King, and many other equally specious reasons, the Cabinet is driving.

The account, in consequence,as will be seen from the return itself, furnishes only a state ment of the number of stamps used collectively by the proprietors of the different newspapers, and not of the number of stamps used by ach single news paper.

KING'S BENCH, Juvir 7. THE KING V. Tire INHAUITANTS OF TOPSHAM. Lord TENTERDEN delivered the opinion of this Court in ...this case, which was 'argued in Easter term. It was an appeal from an order of Sessions, and . related to . a settlement which was claimed by marriage. Tba. question was whether the marriage of Joseph Betts and Mary Hodgkins was or was not valid, and that depended upon whether there had been a proper publication of banns. . Betts had been described by his real name, which was different from that which he had always used. The woman's name was published as Mary White, that being the name which was entered in the registry of her bap tism, though Hodgkins was her real name, and that by which she bad been always known. It was ad- mitted that no fraud had been contemplated; that the name of Mary White had been entered in the registry by mistake, and that the parties, in de scribing themselves as they had done, meant to avoid the possibility of all question as to proper for mality. The Court, however, having taken time 'to look into the several cases which were cited in the course of the argument, were of opinion that the rule which had been established by those cases must be adhered to in this; and that whatever individual hardship it might be to these parties, who had had by their marriage several children, their Lordships were bound to declare that the marriage was illegal. CLEARY V. - This was an action against a Mrs. Dixon, the widow of a gentleman formerly in the army, for board and lodging in the plaintiff's house. The de fendant had paid into Court 8/. 4t. under a plea of tender. The plaintiff was a boarding-house-keeper in Al fred-place, Tottenham-court-road. In December last the defendant, Mrs. Dixon, with her female servant, took up her abode there, on an agreement to pay at the rate of 1201. a year. She stayed only three weeks and two days, and for the accommoda tion received during that period she tendered the plaintiff 8/. 45., which was refused, and the present action was brought to recover such sum as the Jury might think the plaintiff entitled to as a compensation for the loss he had sustained by the defendant's ab ruptly quitting the house. The plaintiff's Counsel, in anticipation of the de fence (which was that the accommodation in the house was bad, and the fare scanty), called wit nesses to prove that every comf or t an d convenience which the plaintiff undertook to provide for his in mates had been afforded, and that the defendant's complaint was unfounded. FOL. the defence (the tender being admitted), three witnesses were called, the first of whom was the dgfendatit's servant, who was present when her mistress made the agreement with the plaintiffs wife. She stated that Mrs. Cleary told the de fendant that they kept a plain table —soup or fish, a joint, and a pudding or tart, every day. The de fendant, however, on going to the house, soon found that the fare did not approach to any thing like such luxuries as these. The first day she went there a very small piece of roast beef was served up; there was neither soup nor fish, pudding or tart. There were never more than two dishes; and when there wail a hot joint, nothing else was served up. Fish or soup was only allowed with cold meat on the second . day, or hashed meat on the third; and when there was fish or soup, there was no pudding or tart. On one occasion there was a small bit of boiled mutton, and a very small pair of soles : at another time there was a small leg of pork. It was boiled, and the water was saved, and at the end of four days was made into soup. Having been kept too long, it smelt very disagreeable. The defendant was the only one of the boarders who took any of it, and it made her ill. None of the servants would touch it. The witness went on to detail several other grievances, one of which was, that there was not enough fire allowed, although the defendant paid something extra for that. A lady, named Rees, who was a boarder in the same' house with the defendant, stated th a t w h en she agreed to become an inmate, she was told by i the plaintiff's wife that they kept a " g e ntee l ta bl e . She was disappointed, and there was an universal complaint among the boarders as to the scantiness of the fare. There was seldom sufficient for each per son to be helped twice. The rule of the house was, to put out the fire and send the inmates to bad at eleven o'clock; and on one occasion the plaintiff came into the room where the wimp's was sitting alone, and put out the fire shortly after ten o'clock. She was in consequence obliged to go to bed imme diately. Her son frequently came and took. her to a private room at an inn to dine, there being no "proper dinner" at the house. . The Learned JUDGE put it to Mr. Gurney whe ther he could expect a verdict after this evidence. The Jury smiled; and the Learned Counsel said, he feared from their manner that he stood but little chance, and he would therefore consent to be non suited. The plaintiff was then called. At the rising of the Court the sittings were ad journed to the 26th of October. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JULY 6. John cam, an eating-house keeper, late of Church-street, was opposed by a creditor in person, named Baker. it appeared from the insolvent's statement that he took the benefit of the Act so recently as January, 1829, and soon afterwards began business in Church-street. On these premiseXhe employed his opposing creditor, who was a carpenter, to make some alterations and repairs, and in January list he disposed of the business to a person named Seth Worrell for 271., of which only .5/. 101. was paid in cash, the rest being an old debt due from the insolvent to Worrell. After the sale he con tinued in the business as usual, but as lie stated, only on behalf of Worrell, who had another shop in Sun street; the insolvent also for a time continued to be the tenant of the house. Seth Worrell, examined by Mr. BAKER, stated that he took the benefit of the. Act in December, 1828, at which time he was remanded for five or six months. He also described the purchase by him of the business in Church-street, and the COIIII• nuance of the insolvent there to conduct it. The receipts in the business were from 71. to 81. a-week, and two persons were employed to Carry it on. Croie-exatnined by Mr. CooKi.:— Mr. Baker called on witness, and said . if 'lO/. 'were paid him he would discharge the insolvent. jEls said the in solvent had offered 5/.. which he refused to take, saying that he would either have 10/. or nothings for thet• inxix months.. he expected to he in a simi lar situation himself, and that if he did not get 101. he would•oppoie the insolvent, but he would not employ Counsel or attorney, for they were all rogues and thieves.—(Loud laughter, in which the Court heartily joined,) Mr. Baker denied that he had ever cast such an imputation as that ascribed to him by the witness. Mr. COOKE having addressed the Court for the insolvent, Mr. Commissioner Bovrnet..said the insolvent had only been discharged about a year and a half ago, and was not a fit person to be allowed his discharge now, without getting the consent of hie creditors. • 'The insolvent was then retaanded to obtain the consent of three-fourtlii of his creditors in number and value.

About noon ate ehmenta presents(' an +Mkt' appearance, portending a violent conflict. Light.. ning and thunder, , sooorripanted by torrents of rain, and a viblent hail store*, continued throughout the whole of the day, until nightfall. The crops lit this part of Sussex, which hitherto had a most healthy and abundant appear ance, must have experienced considerable injury. A large quantity of hay had been cut down within the last week, but which, from occasional rains had not been got in, must have suffered very much by the, severity of yes. terday. ~; --,~~- POLICE INTELLIGENCE MASSION-MWSE.
