Shortly after the glorious peace, as they called it, of eighteen hundred and fifteen, I went upon half pay as a jolly Lieutenant. I was very glad of the change, as every body else was at first. It was very pleaFant to rise when one chose, to dine where he liked, and to run a compara tively ti ifling risk of having his brains knocked out before the evening. But rising at your own hour, dining at your own time, and even keeping your brains in safety, becomes very tiresome and fatiguing. In about a month, I would have given the world to be hack again to our hurried reveilles, uncertain dinners, and all the other glorious sufferings of "grim-visaged war." I tired of London in a very short time. They are such a set of chattering fellows those cockneys ; they worried my life out with their questions. Even in my coffee room. I could never finish my modicum of port in peace. Some inquisitive fAlow or other was sure to sit down at the opposite side of the table and ask me all about Vaterluo and the Donk of Vellington. 1 never was much given to talting, .sp-cially over my wine, anti offended sundry patriotic inquirers by the shortne ss of my replies. But their per• srcution was too much for me at last. I was terrified to go anywhere ; the moment the medal was seen, I was elevated into a hero, and had every opportunity given me of elevating myself into an orator at the same time. If I lvd the medal, some coffee-room tormentor was sure to recognise me. I cursed the Duke, and the Peninsula, and Waterloo, as the disturbers of my peace, and resolved to hide myself in the country for a few months,,till our fame should be in some measure forgotten.—Nights at 3/leis— Blackwood. HOUSE OF LORDS, Auarnr 6 The gallery was not opened till five-and-twenty minutes t' six o'clock, when Lord LOWTHER and others hroueht up the Thelluson's Estate Bill, with an amendment, which The LORD CHANCELLOR stet d to the House was as al7eration with regard to a certain sum of money which had been overlooked in the Lord 4, and was rectified by the Committee of the noise of Commons. LONDON LEATHER WAREHOUSES AND HIDE DEPOSITORY. BERMONDSEY', AUGUST 6. 188:3. THE LONDON LEATHER WARE HOU...,E CO tIPANY hereby GIVE NOTICE, that the TANNERS, LEATHER FACTORS. HIDE SAL S3IEN, and OTHERS, who hare taken th. above Warehouqes and Hide Depository, WILL OPEN the same on TUESDAY. the 20th day of Aiieteit instant, for the WAREHOUSING and SELLING of LEATHER, RAW HIDES, SHEEP, and other SKINS. The Scotch and Irish Vagrant Bill went through a Committee and was reported. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER, stated, that early in the next session be should consider it his duty, unless some other Noble Lord took the subject in hand, to bring before that House a measure for the removal of the disabilities under which his Majesty's Jewish subjects laboured. In making this statement he must observe that though he did not brlieve that any statement he had made would be wilfully misrepresented, yet he must confess it was with some surprise that he had observed that he had been represented as stating else• where that it was his opinion that the clergy should he represented in the other H ,use ; all he had said war that they should be eligible. If he was called upon to give an opinion, which he would not do now, he should say that he considered them the last persons in the world who should be representatives in Parliament, as they had much more important duties to perform. The Noble M irquis also hegeed to give notice, that, early in the next session, he should bring forward a milion calling upon their Lordships to forego the privilege of proxies. The House then adjourned. The Comp my have provided such extr-ive accommo dation, that all Leather sent for Sale may remain Ware boomed at a low charge, without being exposed to the weather, or the owners to the inconvenience, injury, and expense of having it carted from place to place. The Rent to be paid by the Hide S ilesmen for the Der sitnry will he afiout the present amount paid by them on the Sale of the Skins alone ; and Any Butcher or other Person requiring portions of the Hide Depositoty, will, at all times, be ,ccommodated with the sure at a corresponding low rate of Rent. The Warehouses and Hide Depository will he attended by the London Tanners every Tuesday and Friday, and by the Leather F .ctors ever 3, day ( Sundays excep , ed). There will be a commodious Tavern adjoining the above Warehouses for the accommodation of the Trade. ts d r 'er lb.

GAME.—We are happy in being able to state that there is every prospect of abundant sport on the moors in Inverness and Koss.shires this season. The young birds are well grown and the coveys are large and numerous. The weather was favourable while the birds were hatching; and the bite rains have, so far as we can learn, done no injury either on the high or low grounds. In some of tie Perthshire moms the rains hive been pro ductive of much loss, and on the Breadalbane estate we understand the grouse are very scarce. The number of strangers, sportsmen. will be unusually large this year, as the applications for shooting wounds and premises have been greater than was ever before experienced in tbis quarter.—lneerness Carrier. BISHOPS AND CAULIFLOWERS.—Doctor PARIS somewhere observes that the originals of the rahbage and cauliflower are not to be reeoenised in uncul treated nature. A bishop of the present age hiss no mire likeness to a bishop of the New Testament arid the priaii the church, than a cauliflower or a red eabb .ge is like any spontaneous producti,m of the field. It has taken 1.800 years to bring bishops to their present figure. The hurti culturis's con show nothing like it in the aggruid zement of gooseberries.

AN UNCOMMON WEDDING.—About a fort night ago a wedding took place at the Collegiate Church, Manchester, tinder circumstances which we should sup pose are without a parallel in the annals of matrimony. Some weeks since the wife of the bridegroom declared to a company of female acquaintances that she would give any woman Si. who would marry her husband, and take him off her hands. " Will you?" cried one of the com pany; " I'll do it," and without any further ceremony the bargain was concluded. When the husband was consulted he expressed himself quite willing to make the transfer of his " troth" to the adventornus damsel, and on the 19th ult. they proceeded to the Collegiate Church in a body, the wife officiating as bridesmaid, and her uncle as groomsman to the happy pair. At the altar the self discarded wife took the ting from her finger, and presented it to the bridegroom, to pl ice on that of his new bride ; and when the nuptial ceremony was ended, she duly paid over to her successor the three pounds which had been agreed upon as the price of her liberty, presenting the new mart ied couple also with a cart load of furniture towirds the formation of a new domestic estabishment ! Of course the peculiar circumstances of the case were not made known to the clergyman who performed the ceremony,— Macclesfield Herald. NAE PIER.--LORD NAPIER,OI IVIERCHIS• TON.—This family descends from the ancient Thanes of Latimox; but took the name of NAPIER from the fol lowing event:—One of the ancient E ads of LENNOX hail three sons; the eldest succeeded him in the Earitloi,i, the second was named DONALD, and the third GILCHRIST. The then King of SCOTS being engaged in war, and having convocated his subjects to battle, the Earl of LEN. NOX was called on, amongst others, to send such force as he could collect to the KING's assistance, which he accurd inly did, keeping his eldest son at home with him, but putting his men under the command of his two younger sons. The battle went hard with the Scots, who were not only forced to lase ground, but were actually running away, when DONALD snatched his father's standard from Vie bearer, charged the enemy with the Lennox-men, changed the fortune of the day, and obtained a victory. After the battle, as the custom was, every one reported his acts, when the KING said, "Ye have all done valiantly ; but there is one amongst you who had NAE PIER'" (that is. no equ ; and, calling DONALD to him, commanded him to change his name from LENarox to NAPIER, and bestowed upon him the land+ of Gostord and lands in life, as a reward for his service. Captain NAPIER descends nirectly from DONALD. VALUE OF WEASELS.—Some time ago a weasel was observed very frequently to visit the ptetnises of Mr. ALLAN, of Redheugh, parish of Kilburnie, in search of rase, and in the course of a few we. ks runty of that hated tribe were destroyed by the heroic weasel, which had become a great favourite with every one of Mr. AL LAN'S family. A few weeks ago, Mr. ALLAN had a tailor at work in the house, who was brandishing his needle with much dexterity when a I rge rat came running in and leapt up on the tible, before the astonished knight of the thimble, who started back with horror, and bestowed a few weighty epithets on the impudent rat. It was soon discovere.d that the p tor rat was flying for his life, as the weasel folowed him into the very centre of the house, and observing him trembling on the table, the pursuer stood erect on his hind legs, as if about to spring up and seize him—when, alas ! a cat, which happened to be in the kitchen, unexpectedly seised the weasel and killed him on the spot. Mr. Rat, no doubt, thought this a favourable opportunity for making his escape ; in en instant, he sprung front before the dumfoundered tailor, and mule off, but was met at the door by the house dog, which instantly killed him.—Scots Times. ANECDOTE OF GOETHE,—It happened that the reigning Duke, who was returning from the chase took his way through Thfurth. He came in after the reading was begun. The evenings were chill, and thee was a fire in the room. The Duke, who came out of the fresh air, found it too hot, and opened one of the windows. S cue ladies, whose thinly covered shoulders were ill defended against the cold, sat close to the window. GOETHE, observing that they suffered from the draught, instantly rose, approached the window with cautious tip toe steps, that he might not disturb the reader, and softly shut it. The Duke, meantime, had passed to the ether side of the room, and his face was suddenly over-clouded when he turned round and saw how contu maciously his commands had been resisted. " Who has shut the window that I opened ?" said he to the servants of the house; not one of whom dared to cast so couch as a glance at the culprit. GOETHE, however, with that arch, reverential gravity which is peculiar to him, and at the bottom of which often lies the most tefitied irony, stepped forward before his master and friend, and said, " Your Highness has the power of l.fe and death over all your subjects. Upon ate let judgment and sentence be pronounced." The Duke laughed, and the window was opened no more.—Characteristics of Goethe. CURIOUS CLoCIE.—The most curious thing in the cathedral of Lubeck, is a clock of singular con struction and very high antiquity. It is calculated to answer astronomical purposes, representing the places of the sun and moon in the ecliptic, the moon's age, a perpetual almanack, and many other contrivances. The clock, as an inscription, sets forth, was placed in the church upon Candiemas day in 1405. Over the face of it appears an image of our Saviour, and on either side of the image are folding isoors, so constructed as to fly open every day when the clock strikes twelve. At this hour, a set of figures representing the twe,ve apostles, come out from the doer on the left hind of the image, end pass by in review before it, each figure making its obeisance by bowing as it passes that of our SAVIOUR, and afterwards entering the door on the right hand. Worn the proces sion terminates, the doors close.— Clarke's Travels in Scandinavia. Mr. HUME presented three petitions, which, he stated, were signed by several thousand tradesmen and others re sident in the metropolis. The petitioners prayed that the clause in the Bank of England Charter, restricting the number of persons in banking firms within sixty-five miles of the metropolis, might be withdr iwn. The Hon. Member said, the clause objected to would be highly detriinental to the trading community of the metropolis, and while inju rious to them, could not be attended with any benefit to the Bank of England whatever. He saw no reas.in why the metropolis and the country generally should not be placed on tie saute footing. Lord ALTHORP said he would take that opportunity of informing the House that, in consequence of a commu nication he bad h id with the Bank of England, it was not his in ention to proceed with the Charter that evening, but to p spine it till Thursday next. Sir JOHN WROTTESLEY said there was a general misunderstanding regarding the powers of the Bank of England. Tiiere was nutting to prevent any bank front issuing notes, exci pt those banks in which there were mire than six persons as partners.— (Hear.) Mr. HUME gave notice, that it was his intention to move a call of the House on the second reading of the Bill for granting one million sterling to pay the ti hes of Ireland, provided the conditions did not satisfy the House that the people would not be r.quired to pay one farthing. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE. Mr. Ahlertnan WOOD brought up the report of the Committee appointed to inquire into the matters contained in the petitions of Frederick Young and others, and ob tained leave to report the minutes of evidence taken before the Committee. The Report was read by the Ch•rk ; it stated that the Committee, having inquired into the petitions, and exa mined witnesses relative to the conduct of the police in Walworth and Camberwell, concerning the ernp:oyment of the police as spies, had come to the following resolution, via. that the conduct of the policeman, Popsy, was highly r .prehensible in taking a prominent part in those pro. ceeditigs which his duty only required him to observe, and in prying into the secrets of private life; that while a sanction had been given to him in some parts of his con duct, sufficient caution bad not been exercised by those under whom he was placed in warning Win against any undue means of supplying his eoip!oyers with repos' is ; that the system of sending out policemen in plain clothes was no just cause of complain, so long as they confined themselves to observing bre ieltset of the law and breaches of the peace, but the Committee urged the main• tenance of that system within those limits, and they strongly deprecated the practice of employing persons as spies, as a preceding abhorrent to the feelings of the people, and alien to the spirit of the Constitution. Mr. CORBETT said, as it was he who brought for ward the petition, and he who moved that a Committee might he appointed to inquire into the subject, he felt it to be his duty to make a etc observations to the House on this occasion, especially respecting the conduct of the witnesses. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL made ao observation to the Hon. Member across the table, but in so low a tune as to be utterly unheard in the gallery. Lord ALTHORP considered that it would certiinly be more convenient for the lion. Member to reserve discussion on this subject till af , er the minutes and report wern known to t e Members gener illy. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, that be only wished teat the House might be completely in possession of all the evidence given before the Committee. Mr. HUME thought that if the thing were dropped in this way there would be no opportunity afforded at all of oiscusming the question; and theref , re if the Hon. Alealber for Oldham was to he prevented from making his ob servslions now, he (Mr. H.) hoped that the Noble Lord would fix a day on which the subject might b- discussed. Lord ALTHORP said that if it were pressed, he should not oLjeet to the Hon. Member saying new any thing that occurred to him. Mr. SPEAKER said it had been moved that the minutes of the evidence taken before the Court, and the report, should be printed ; and it certainly would be more convenient to have the discussion brought forward when the House was in p.issession of the whole. Mr. Alderman WOOD presented a petition from certain merchants and other inhvitants of the city of London , gainst certain parts of the 13 ink Charter Bill. Mr. HARDY gave notice of his intention on the third reading of the Slavery Abolition Bill, to move the intro duction of a clause to prevent masers of slaves from mat• ing any addition to the prescribed laws of labour without legislative authority fOr the Mitre ; and also for further re stricting the I .bour of females under theage of 18. The Hon. Member also gay:: notice, that early next session be should move for !cave to brine in a Bill to consolidate and amend the laws relative to bribery at elecions, and to diminish the ex.ienses of elections of Manbers to serve in Par. Mr. GISBORNE presented a petition from certain in habitants of the city of London, against certain provisions of the Bank Charter Acts, particularly the proposed limi tation of partners to six in banks, within 65 miles of Lon don, not being bank,' of issue. BOROUGH OF STAFFORD. Sir T. FREMANTLE then rose to bring forward his tration for leave to bring in a Bill to &franchise the borough of Staff ird. He had been Chairman of the Com mittee which had been appainted by the House to inquire into the proceedings at the late election, and, conse quently, although other Members of that Committee were much more competent to take a prominent part in t his question, yet he was called ou to take an active part in the proceedings. The Committee had come to the resolution, from the evidence which had been laid before them, that general and systematic bribery had taken place at S afford, and that it was expedient that that borough should in future cease to return Members to serve in Parliament. In pursuance of that resolution, he had now to move the House fur leave to introduce this B i ll, He !eh no di-inclination on the present occasion to take this course, Navin, always considered it the duty of that House, when a direct case of corruption was proved before it, to take some severe and certain steps in regard to it; and in proof of this be need only refer to t h e course which he pursued on a former occasion, when the case of East Retford had been brought under the notice of the Hou,e, and when it w is proposed to transfer its franchise to Birmingham. It the depravity and corruption of Stafford were suffered to pa.s unpunished, what an example would be held out to other consti. tuencies. What they did last session to purify the represen tation would b e more than nugatory, it would b e m ischievous, for it wou ld h ave exten d e d t h e fi e ld o f cor ruption, as in the case b e f ore them. H e a d m i tte d t h a t it vasdifficult to p revent the occurrence of b ribery an d t reating at a cont este d e l ect i on. S o l ong as h uman n ature was as it was, mon e y an d t h e good t hi ngs of th i s wor ld w ou ld inevitably induce voter s to b e gu id e d b y what they could pt, instead of by their opinion of the respective can. &dates. The candidates themselves were exposed to great temptation when the numbers appeared likely to rein close, and a holy of voters, let it be understood, would vote according to the payment they received. He asked lion. Gentlemen who had gone through contests, whether if was not a situation of temptation ? He called upon those who had withstood the temptation of that situ ttinn to join with him in putting down the system, which he would describe, and which had been proved to prevail in the borough of Stafford.—(Hear, hear.) If it should be thought that he wished to punish many respectable and innocent persons at Stafford. he begged to remind the House that a person whose situation in life might place him above receiving a bribe, might be actual) , noire guilty than a receiver, by becoming the corrupter of the voters by distributing bribes, whether from partisan zeal, or any other motive.—( Hear, hear, hear.) One of the usual incidents of an election at Stafford was, that the candidate should at the very outset begin by putting his hand in his pocket.—( Hear, hear.) On going down, it appeared the condidate had to meet the burgesses at some convenient place for introduction, and would remain unknown to his intended constituents, unless every voter received an introductory fee. At the last election, each of the three candidates followed the usual custom. One began with ss. a voter, but another having given the more magnificent sum of 104 ,hiscompetia tors were obliged to enlarge their gifts to the same amount. 'l'ne Grand Jury Room was the place of audience for one of the candidates, where be had to undergo the shaking by the hand of eight hundred voters, who, withdrawing to the Court House, there received each his 10s. This, it had been contended, was no bribery, but he would put it to the Hon. Member for Stafford himself whether it could be called hy any other name.—(Hear.) This system was not confined to the lower etass of voters, but many other wise respectable men received these bribes. Some sent their servants or sons for the " tickets," and if they molted to get them turned into cash at once, did not forget to do so at the conclusion.—(Heir, hear, hear.) At the election it was proved that the recognised price of a single vote was 21. 10s., and of a plumper SI., which sums, as the election proceeded, were gradualfy doubled. Out of the 10/. householders more than one half appeared on the paid list. Of the 101. householders thus bribed, two thirds were of a respectable class of persons. Of the lower classes, full six sevenths received money. -The offences in this borough had been often repeated and had been carried to a great length, and as the crime had been signal so ought the punishment to he. He had great ob jection to mixing an agricultural and a town constituency, and he should therefore oppose the plan suggested of merely disfranchising the corrupt voters, and adding to tile constituency the neighbouring towns. One reason of his objecting to such a mode of correcting the evil was, it had been tried before and had not been found sucaessfol. For instance, Penryn had been united to Falmouth, and yet it had not been found that the old freeholders of Pen ryn had been induced to abjure their old propensities. If there was to to' a new constituency, there must be a nu clews to form it upon ; but here a nucleus did not exist, or it was so small that if persons asked what numbe r of voters were free from corruption, the answer must he, very few, and these who would net take money had been guilty of receiving other considerations. So far had corruption of the lowest kind polluted even the apparently respectable classes, that in one instance a gentleman who kept his pony chaise actually sent his wife to receive his bribe. A schoolmaster, who ought to have known better, went about to pay the bribes; and a parish clerk, who 1 kewise went about to procure votes, took a 10/. note with him, as the people told him they would not vote upon his promise, nor before they saw he bad the money to pay them with. Tue Committee had proposed that a Bill should he brought in ro disfranchise the borough, and not to transfer the franchise to any other place. Now that the great populous towns were represented in Parliament, it was not necessary to transfer the franchises of boroughs which might he de. , prived of their elective rights on account of corruption. The Tories proposed there should he no more disfranchise ment on the principle of transfer, and the Noble Lord had said the present ease ast,s one of a nuisance which ought to be put down.—((fear, hear.) He said the same; but it the franchise were given to another place, it was no longer disfranchisement. Stafford was a nuisance that ought to h e disfranchised and exterminated.—( Hear, hear.) He could not hope to carry the B II into a law this session, but fie trusted he could proceed to that extent in the next. He should now move for leave to bring in a Bill to dis franchise the borough of Stafford. M. IIACLEOD secanded the. motion. Mr. CH ET WYND—The House would ageee with him that helore it would consent to bring in a Bill they would see that a case was made out of the most powerful nature, supported by fact of the most indisputable character. He could not allow that the Hon. Mover had made out any such a case. Pats of the evidence were given voluntarily, parts under the strongest party feelings and jealousy and the smart of disappointment, and no part whatever, be it recollected, was given on oath. He should present a petition to the House showing that where payments were entered in the list, in many cases the money had not been r.ceived. He would instance the case of Major Hawkins, who had come forward as a candidate on a declaration that he would nut pay one farthing— Sir T. FREMANTLE—Bat be was not elected.... (Laughter CHETWYND continued—At the end of the first day he was a• the.heirl of the poll, and would have been returned had he kept the poll open only two hours longer ; but he withdrew Iron a melancholy circumstance, which there was no occasion at that martient to mention. Of the one hundred and sixty-seven new constituents that voted, eighty-five were pair! and eighty-two were not paid, and there were twenty six new constituents that did not vote at all, and more than twenty 101. householders had not registered ; so that there were one hundred and twenty that were not imp:ached. It was unfair, moreover, to judge heeshly of the neighbouring votes that it was pro posed to admit into the new constituency. Staffird was a horough of great antiquity. It had existed prior to the reign of King John, its privileges had b en conferred by charter, and it had sent burgesses to Parliament as early as the reign of Edward I. It was a place containing many inbabitan,s of property. A great manufacture of shoes was carried on there—(A laugh)—and it contained up ward of 530 houses rated at 101. and upwards, and hid sent Members to Parliament for six centuries. Ought such a place to be deprived of its rights and privileges which had been so long exercised by the ancestors of the present generation ? l'he evils might be corrected by a more lenient sentence than that of total disfranchisement. The Hon. Member moved as an amehdnient (is far as we could hear hi ::), that the neighbouring townships should be added t , the borough of St , fford. Mr. E. BULLER seconded the amendment. Sir 0. MOSLEY &plumed all hasty legislation on the sujecr, anti called on the House to pause before it set such a precedent. If the House should disfranchise War wick aid Hertford, then, indeed, it would be dealing with qui] justice. There was no legal evidence to prove cor ruption at Stafford, nor was there anything to-prove the existoice of corruption in the elections in former years. An HON. MEMBER observed, with reference to Stafford, the constituency had verified the doctrine of Walpole, that every man had his price. Mr. ORD said that the two Hun. Members for Stafford had admitted to a great extent the guilt of the electors of Stafford. As respected the towns of Stone and Ecele shall, he thought it would be an injury to connect them with eon nut a borough as that of Sthffurd. Mr. HARDY was most happy to support the measure before the House, and to disfranchise the borough of Staf ford totally. Lord ALTHORP said the House seemed to be so much di•posed to accdo to the motion of the Hon. li.ronet that he thought it was hardly necessary for him to say any thing ; and what he rose for was to express a hope that Hon. Gentlemen would not think it incumbent on him to soy much. It was certainly the duty of the House to set tneir faces against all these cases of bribery and corruption is a must derided manner ; and for his own part he must sa y, if ever a case Was made nut for punishment it was this of the borough of Stafford. An 110 N. MEMBER exµres•ed his concurrence in what had fallen from it, Nobl e L or d . Mr. Aid. COPELAND (as we were informed) said it was on'y right that a reformed Parliament should make an example of the borough in quesrion. The gallery was then cleared for a division, but none took place, the motion being agreed to. POST-OFFICES OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND. On our return to the gallery we found Air. It WALLACE on his Irgs. He had had intervieNr with the Postwaster-General upon the subject to which t.e was about to refer, end he bed been received b 7 that coitrl6ty. 5!1.1 t! believed , l , tt if that Noble Duke could fitoi it to be in his power cornett the abuse he woad do so. Nov what te, (Mr. Wallace) had to complain of was, that letters in otral Post-office were really opened or unfolded, it; SC :De other means read, and that their contents were a eade known to those persons who were ensiaged in he Po.t office, and titpitchy all secrecy, all confi eence, both public awl private, was violated. Now it would ill become him to make such a charge as this unless he had in the first place made himself master of some at 'lse proceedings in the establishment to which he had e ferred. But he held in his' h and the report of the let hr a'ootniniseion upon the Post-effice revenue, &c., in 1829, and it seemed to him to be most ably drawn up ; h t no ttention' whatever had been civet' to the recommendations eentained in this report, nor to the two previous ones in ode 1788 and 1797, all of which went to sugeest conside• settle refortnalons in the Post-office department.—( Tie Hon. Gentleman here read an extract from the report ot the Committee of 1829, which recommended the puttine Post-office Establishment upon the hest footing, not. only as yielding in itself a cnnsiderahle revenue, but ale', as en auxiliary to the other branches of the revenue.) Now lls meant to contend that the establishment was manased with meanness and parsimony. It was time that it should he placed on a better footing. They had in that House a !,ford of the Treasury, a First Lord of the Admiralty. t ‘ o va a s ll ai n w th a e; y ogrea p Secretary oto answer th Sect. in et g a t r ii t r i i ; es an r d ela t t h i e v r e e matters, but the Post-off (ie was an excep , iiin. The Poo masters General were moved allow with each stieceed ing Administration. The exclusive powers which were given to the Postmaster-General were confirmed anti de fined by various Aets of Parliament, and they consi.ted in the settlement of the pests and reetiletion of all corre. spondence between all parts of the King's dominions, with the exception of Ireland ; and in the appointment of such (Beers and servants as he should think fit. Here then was a power which extended to an unconstitutional limit; the power was too vast to he riven to an individual: In addition to the appointment of officers anal ssrvante to any number he might think fit, he had the power to t dze seem ity. He had also the power of regulating even the amount' of postages. The Secretary's office cams next. The salary was 3001. a year ; but, by various fees, ern'. laments, and privileges, the sirulfon brought not less than 4.665/. a year. He would merely state the fact, without at present going into the inquiry whether any Secretary ought to have so large a remuneration for his services •as this. The Secre•ary had besides almost the entire virtual delegation to all offices under the Po tonlice, though nominally vested in the Postmaster-General. Ties remuneration to the clerks was rather of an extraordinary nature, made up of salaries, allowances, and emoluments of various kinds.—(The Hon. Member read the various items of allowances, fees, and emoluments front the Report Of 1829.) There was a fund from which the clerks in part derived their income, which fund amounted to 39,000/. a year, and paid to the revenue 750/. It went to the S e . cretary's clerks and other clerks connected with the esta blishment The junior clerks were rated higher than on any similar establishment. In some of the offices of the ilepart. men- the remuneration ar:sing from this fund was very high. What he contended for was that the whole system requirtef revision. He would now come to the office of Solicitor to the Past-office. The Report stated that he was paid according to the usual rate of the profession. He had the authority or perusing letters with a view to prosecution. In this respect the authority of the Postmaster-General was delegated to him. He instituted prosecutions on his authority, and the Report sated, that though the expense was considershle, the aum received in the way of penalties was small With respect to the next point, the inland ()thee, he regiettei that in consequence of the hour the petition on that subject could not have been presented that evening, as it weal have shown the exactions made in England and Ireland by the clerks of the roads. The head officer in this department had a s glary of 230/. a year; boo he, as well as the clerks under him, derive] considerable emolument from other Flotations and sources.—(l'he Hon. Member enumerated them from the Report.) He would now come to the Sun. day duty. He himself had received on a Monday morning as many as 28 letters, and was told he must pay for them, as they came by the Sunday b Ts. This was on the 15th of April, 1829 —(Mr. S•anley, we believe, said a c res, the table that there was no Sunday arrival now.) Well, it might he so noot, but it was not so at the period he alluded to. The Report of 1829 recommended that the Post_ office should be managed upon a more liberal plan ; and he hoped, if too late now, the subject watch! at least he taken up next session. It recommended, among other things, that theme should he two places of general deli very in place of one, so that the poor and the rich 'nicht alike he enabled to receive their letters at the same time. That was not the case now. He did not mean to say that the rich did not pay extra for this convenience (" No, no," from Sir J. Graham.) He was toold en, and that the charge was five shillings a quarter. There were two windows of delivery, one of which, he understood, was the early one. The relent stated that the place of clerk of the roads had no official duty attached to it, and then went on to show what were the ditties of elseretary, There were not less than 101 statutes affecting the Pet. (office, and it was impossible that much inconvenience Mil et not arise from such a quantity of legislation. Maters were conducted in a dilatory way, as he was informed by many mercantile men. They told him that the Oporto and 3a. in lice packets were detained, instead of sending intelligent's of their arrival, or deep itching a pestchaise diately with the mails. This business was managed better by the newspapers. They hail their intelligence by ex. presses of their own, which might give them and their friends an opportunity of profitably jabbing in the Funds. He did not mein ti charge the gentlemen of the pre,.. with doing so. With respect to the Sunday brig he made inquiry by letter of the Secretary, whose answer was, that no bags were received in London on Sundays, and nom made up in London which could reach the country offices en a Sunday. Tate rsgul &one ot the Past office were se various and complicated that it would require as cued a head and as much experience to manage that department as the Excise or Customs. In 1815 it was found impose sit& to collect the revenue on foreign letters. It was determined, therefore. to send them out free; and, to compensate for any loss to the revenue, it was determined that on their coming in, the charge should be eightpence, in place of sixpence. This practice, however, as-as now given up. One reason assigned against private delivers was that it would he injurious to the packet service.
