The weather on Saturday was most extraordi nary. At noon the western parts of the inetropoli4 an d the suburbs were visited with remarkably heavy rain and severe lightning and thunder. Piccadilly, by St. James's church, was so flooded, that the pavement next the church for a long time wee impassable; and the Western roads, about Kensington and Turnham. green, were covered with water, as if deep snow had suddenly and .extensively thawed. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 6, 1830. tOUafi Oi? COMPENSATION, GUILDHALL. THE LORD MAYOR, ALDERMEN, ANT) COMMONS, AND JOHN GILBERT. The COMMON SERGEANT said that this would . litort . to be a case of gross attetllpt to defraud the . Corpo ratioii of London. Mr. Gilbert was a baker without. an oven, and kept a shop without business. It had been found necessary to take down his premises at No. 40, Gracechureh-street, for the purpose of mak ing approaches to the new London-bridge, according to the 10th of Geo. IV., and the following extraor dinary terms were proposed by him : Per my interest in the premises held undo tun X, a. d. agreement for an unexpired term of three years from Lady.day next, at the yearly rent of l6O 0 0 Fixtures, us per valuation 5O 0 0 . . . After stating that an excellent wholesale and retail business was established in the oatmeal and pearl barley line in the premises, the claimant says—.- My casual receipts over the counter, and nty warehouse annexed (a strict account of which I have always kept), amount upon an average, after deducting several sums taken from the till for daily domestic purposes, to the sum of 11,6001. per annum. Upon this sum I claim a gross profit of 10/. per cent., which is £1,160 Deduct rest, taxes, candles, servants' wages, ike., per annum ' • 450 Leaves a net profit of ' 710 11411' a year's profit ':;)r) 1,065 0 0 Logs by removal of stock, furilitur,, 30 0 0 Expenses paid my surveyor lO 0 0 1,305 0 0 To prove the accuracy of the estimate of the pro fits of this trade, the claimant had (the Learned Common Serjeunt. said) thought proper to produce no documents whatever, and it appeared that he had taken the premises in January,. 1829, when it was obvious to all that they, must be required for the above-mentioned purpose; but although no satisfac tion could be had of the claimant upon the important subject, the City Solicitor had endeavowred to supply the deficiency by setting three persons to watch the customers, and their purchases from morning till night. Mr. Montague, the city-surveyor, examined by Mr. MiamtouttE---Had surveyed the house, No. 46, Gracechurch-street.. The claimant had a lease for 2i years, at 213/. R-year. if that rent. was paid, the claimant was entitled to nothing, us the rent was much too high. Mr. Ilitosimy deposed that the lease was of no value whatever. He made inquiry as to the trade, but nothing satisfactory was exhibited from which he could form an opinion of it. There might have been, exclusive of the meal and flour, about 30s. worth of stock in the shop. There was no oven, and the claimant said that . what was halted was baked in Tyson-street. Witness did not know what wholesale business was done on the premises, but if there was any, it would certainly follow the claimant. Wit ness's means of judging were • derived from a large experience in the trade. He had surveyed some scores of baker's shops. The amount of the taxes was 54/. 4s. 9d., and the house was rated at 80/. a year. He considered the alleged rent of 2131. much too high. The ConstoN SERJEANT—The claimant has very modestly put down his fixtures at 50/. as per valua tion, and he has agreed to take for them 17!. 101.— (Laughter.) -- But you will see more by and by. Samuel Apr, examined by Mr. BURNABY, was employed to observe the premises, and on Saturday, June 19, he went to see what business was carried on from was in the morning till nine a t n i g h t . There a delivery of loaves to the shop twice a day (almost twenty each time), .perhaps also a dozen penny loaves and some biscuits were also de livered. The average customers did not exceed 50 a day, and many of those went in for a halfpenny or a penny biscuit. Witness considered that no more than 30s. or 2!. were taken in the course of the day. Cross-examined by Mr. Bumocic—Witness never was a sentinel before. He was relieved at meal times by another who also kept count. Mr. BULLOCK, for the claimant, said the case was of great importance to his client. It was natural that there should be a great discrepancy between a claim and an offer on the part of the City. Mr. MIREIIOUSE—But the City offers nothing. Mr. BULLOCK continued—lt was admitted that Mr. Gilbert baked no bread, but then he had a profit from the sale of bread; and as for the watching, it happened that that operation only took place on one day, and nt the least busy period of the year. Ho (Mr. Bullock) begged that the Jury would consider that there was no mutuality, no reciprocity between the corporation and the claimants on occasions of this description, and no credit ought to be given t o the testimony of persons who let themselves out to watch for hire. Miss Gilbert, daughter to the claimant, deposed that pastry and corn-chandlery were sold in tile front shop. The wholesale business was carried on in the warehouse behind. As much as 241. had been taken in a day ; 41. or 51. were usually taken. The least that was taken was from 24 to 3/. a-day. J. Le Croft, warehouseman to the claimant, swore dust there was a great sale by wholesale. Sacks and barrels of flour were sold. His master, he ad milted, had failed six years ago in George-yard, 14)1°10-lane. Mr. MIKEHOUSE—Didn't he go abroad at that time ? Witness—Yes, 1 suppose he did. Mr. MittEttousE—Pray, what for ? 'Witness--- I can't say ; he never bald why. Mr. BULLOCK—I beg to state that the line of approaches to London-bridge was not settled when Mr. Gilbert took the premises. William Jameson was assistant clerk to the claimant, kept an account .of the wholesale busi ness for the last six months, and was privy to most of his transactions. He then read the account. Some of the numerous items by which the trade was raised to its alleged importance were as follow: 'Purchased 602 sacks, and 551 barrels of flour, for 2,4.524 19s. 9d„ sold them for 2,610/. 187/. 9s. 3d. Purchased of oatmeal, 43 ton 12 cwt. :3 quarters, for 6191. 38, sold them for 7161. 13s. 11d. &c. Mr. Gilbert had a profit on the sale of bread of a penny a quartets loaf.—(A laugh.) Mr. Mtuttuousu—Yes, this retail trade produced him between 3s. 4d. and 4s. 2d. a day-40d. or 50d. Cross-examined—Had been a clerk in a banking house, and an attorney's clerk, and n flour-factor and corn-dealer, und he acted as agent for millers. Ha lived in Cambridge-road, Dethnal-green. He did not exactly know the number, but he would be found at No. 5.---(Laughter.) The COMMON BERJEANT—Wera you not under -acceptances to Mr. Gilbert at the time of his bank ruptcy ?—The witness admitted that lie was, The COMSION SERJEANT—Pray to what amount? '—Witness—Between 3,0001. and 4,000/. The CoMMON BitanANT asked the Jury whether ,hey could believe one word the last wit:netts had 'uttered, and whether they did net see the intended fraud as palpably as they saw the witness The case was one of demonstrative fraud from top to bottom, and the Jury would show their opinion by their verdict. Instead of 1,3051., the claim of Mr. Gilbert, the Jury returned the following verdict, the fixtures Jawing been agreed upon at 174 I2s. of the trade, Is.; lease, is.; expense of removal, 101. The verdict gave great satisfaction. IMPEItiAL PAIiLIAM NT. HOUSE OF LORDS--(LAST NIGHT.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his Stilt on the kVoolsack shortly before Five o'clock. Sit A. aitAkt l and tithe!. liiethbeis of the 'Heine at' Commons brought up the Composition Assessed Tat Bill, the Insolvent Debtors' (Ireland) Bill, the 'ounty Rates (Ireland) Bill, wkether with seve 1 other Private Bills. The Duke of GRAFTON prevented a petition from a pariah im the couhty of Norfolk, against the Beer Bill. The Earl of ELDON presented a petition horn Leamington Priors, against the Beer Bill. Also ono from the Master and Wardens of St. Mary Magdalen, Dublin, against increase or taxation in Ireland. The Duke of BtAUVORT presented a petition from a parish in Gloucestershire, against the Beer Bill; also a petition From Preston, against the Stamp Duties on Medicines. BEER BILL. The Earl of MALM,ESBURY, on presenting a petition, stated that it Was his intention, on the se cond reading of this-Bill, to state to the House his view of the measure, under the hope that, in the Committee, some N obli Lord would propose some restrictive clauses in the bill. Lord GOI)ERICEI wished to know from the Duke at the head of his Majesty's Government when it was his intention tb move the second read ing of the Bill, ns he Ought that period the most appropriate for asking several important questions relative to finance and revenue. 'The Duke of WELLINGTON observed that he intended to move the second rending to-morrow, and the committal of the Bill on' Thursday. Viscount 'OODERICII said he would put the question he intended on Thursday, ns that day would be more Convenient to him. 'I he Duke of RICHMOND felt bound, on the committal of the Bill, to move the introduction of a clause prohibiting the drinking of beer upon the premises. Lord RADNOR presented a petition from Sa• li3bury against the Beer Bill. E.arl GREY presented u petition from the licensed victuallers of Paddington to the same effect; also a petition from the Mayor and Common Council of London, praying to be relieved from taking unne cessary oaths. The Earl of LAUDERDALE presented a peti tion from the Advocates of Edinburgh against the Scotch Judicature Bill. He considered the effect of the Bill would be most injurious, and trusted Ministers would not press a measure of such impor tance through the House this session. The Earl of LDON agreed entirely with the Noble Earl who had just sat down. He had recom mended alterations and improvements in the Scotch Judicature, but he thought the present Bill would interfere with all he had proposed, and he should feel himself disgraced by giving it his support.

The Earl of FALMOUTH presented a petition from Truro against the punishment of death for forgery. NOVA SCOTIA CANAL. Lord DUBSAM rose in the Committee upon the Nova Scotia Canal Bill, and jocosely moved to leave out the said canal, for the purpose of inserting the Thames Tunnel. The Noble Baron thought the money of the country might be advanced by way of loan to the Thames Tunnel Company with more advantage than they could gain from the Nova Scotia Canal Company. The Duke of WELLINGTON repeated the re mark made by his Grace on a former evening, namely, that the Thames Tunnel Company had required a grant of money to accomplish their undertaking. Lord DURHAM read a letter from one of the Directors, who stated that the application to Go vernment vas for a loan on mortgage. The amendment having been negatived, the 13111 passed through the Committee. EAST RETFORI) BILL. Lord DURHAM, before the House went into examination of the witnesses, begged to call the attention of their Lordships to the payment of ex. penses incurred by the witnesses for the defence, and concluded by moving that their expenses be paid by the Treasury. The Dula of WELLINGTON said the pro posal of the Noble Lord was supported by the custom of that House. After some conversation, in which Earl GRIM and the Earl of WESTMORLAND took part, the ques tion was ordered to stand over until to-morrow. Thre• witnesses were then examined ; after which their Lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF CONICONS—(LAST NIGHT.)

Mr. D. W. HARVEY presented a petition from Colchester, in favour of , Parliamentary Reform.— The Hon. Member said the time was near at hand when, if the people were really sincere in their with j `for Parliamentary Reform, they would have the power of accomplishing their object by returning only such persons to this House as were Reformers. Mr. 1.). w, HARVEY then moved for a return of the appropriation of Crown Lands in England and Wales, and an account of the We of any part of them, whether by private contract or publicauction, since the year 1790. Lord LOWTHER objected to the returns, on the ground that the principal parts of the returns were already before the House, and also on the ground of. the ex _pence they would ent a il u p on th e publi c . Mr. H OME was happy to hear the Noble Lord object to putting the public to expense ; but, its his opinion, these returns were absolutely necessary be fore the House proceeded to the consideration of the Civil List.

Sir ALEXANDUIt GRANT brought IV the report of the Committee of Supply. SUGAR DUTIES. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the Ex ttlEiiuttit, the House resolved itself into a Com mittee on the Sugar Dtititis COMMIT EE OF SUPPLY. Sir A. GRANT brought up the Report of the Committee of Supply.—The Resolutions were agreed to j and the Bills ordered accordingly. The Sugar Duties' lint item through a Com mittee report to-morrow. The Spirit buties i Bill *as nlso passed through n Committee; report to=morrow. The West India Spirit Duties' Bill was passed through a Committee. Mr. HUSKISSON contended, that the present se de of duties out 'test India and corn-made spirits acted as a prohibition against the farina. in Scotland and Ireland, the duty on rum being Os. per j'allon in each country, while the duty on torn-trade spirits was Is. tid. in England, and only Sq. 4th in Ireland and Scotland ; and he moved, es, an amendment to the Act, that there should be no reduction in the Os. duty on rum in England; while it was reduced to 4s. hod. in Scotland and Ireland, Which would be the same discriminating duty as existed in these countries upon corn-made spirits. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought the present system was the best ; it was one of a very old date, under which the spirit trade of these countries had been conducted for a number of years ; and he really did not think it either right or fair to introduce a discussion upon the subject at that late period of the session, when many of the Irish Members and others peculiarly interested in it had left town, on the understanding, and indeed the positive pledge, that the question was to be consi dered settled. Under these circumstances ' he de clined entering into any discussion upon the prin ciple at present, : contenting himself with expressing his strenuous opposition to the amendment, and putting it to his Hon. Friend, if it would not be better to postpone it until some future opportunity, When all those interested in the matter would be presentP Mr. K. DOULAS was in favour of the Right ' Hon, Gentleman's amendment. Sir a CLERK protested against any alteration, at this lute period of the Ser•ion, ►n the duties which prevailed in that part of the kingdom with wl►ich he was more immediately connected. Mr. DAWSON thought this was rs most un happy anti unfair time to propose such an alteration as his Right lion. Friend recommended. Mr. It. GORDON supported the amendment. Mr. M. FITZGERALD protested against the subject being re-opened during the present Session, many of the Irish Members having left town under the pledge that the discussion on this subject would not be revived, and that the settlement proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer was to be final. Mr. RICE concurred fully in the view taken by his Right Hon. Friend who spoke last. Mr. C. PALLMER supported the amendment. As to the argument attempted to be raised in favour of the duty by its long existence, he must say, that in his mind that circumstance but afforded the stronger reason for getting rid of it now. The long continuance of an abuse was no argument for its perpetuity. The interests of Ireland had been re ferred to, and in his opinion the Irish ought, for their own sake, to encourage this alteration; for it none but heavy cargoes, such as sugars, were brought from the West Indies to Ireland, while Hight car goes, such as those of rum, were prohibited, the West Indians must cease to take the produce of Ireland for consumption in the colonies. Mr. CALLAGHAN denied that the Irish had any such interest as the Hon. Member seemed to imagine. Indeed he believed that the consumptiOn of West Indian produce in Ireland would be found at the time much to exceed the consumption of Irish produce in the West Indies. Mr. O'CONNELL also opposed the amend ment. The payment of the duty on the Irish spirits and on the rum of the West Indies was taken under such different circumstances as to be much more op prePsive on the Irish spirit manufactur e r th an on t h e West India planter/ Ile did not think that the latter ought to be more than ever favoured at the expellee of the former. Mr. BRIGHT believed that the protecting duty was rather an injury than a benefit to the corn made spirits. Mr. HUSKISSON ivas understood to say that as the Right Hon. Gentleman had pledged himself, as far us ho could, to the considerat►on of this sub ject early in the next Session, he should not now press his amendment. The House then resumed, and the report was 01- tiered to be brought up to-morrow. ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICR RILL. On the motion of the ATTORNRY-GENR RAL, the House went into a Committee on the Administration of Justice Bill. Several clauses re ceived verbal amendments in the Committee. The Committee proceeded with the other clausal of the Bill. Sir J. SCARLETT explained, that the owhjse tionable parts of the NH bad been omitted. Colonel WOOD agreed that the measure, in its present shape, would be highly beneficial to the Principality of Wales. ()n the motion of Lord BELORAVE; a clause was agreed to, enacting, that the Records of the several Courts to be abolished by this Bill should remain in the custody of the oilicera who had for merly been entrusted with them. Some merely verbal amendments were also dis cussed and adopted. The House resumed, and the Report was brought op, and ordered to be taken into farther considera don to-morrow (this day). FRES' ABOLITION. This 13111 went through a Committee, and teas ordered to ha read a third time to.morrow (this day). - ARMS' (1 ItELAND) 1.111. L. Lord F. L GOWER moved the third reeding of this 13111. Mr. O'CONNELL thought that conciliatory measures in Ireland would be much more effective than such a measure as this. Let the armed con• stabulary be got rid of; let the 'Subletting Act be got rid of; and let the Lord Lieutenant's power of putting down meetings by proclamation be got rid of; and such a Bill us the present would no longer be needed. Ills great objection to the system pur sued in Ireland was, that it was founded in favour itism, tuftd that the people in general had not fair play. Lord F. L. GOWER could not admit that th ere was no necessity for this measure. The constabulary force was still- found requisite, and be did not see how the Government was to be carded on without such measures. Mr. HUME said that the Noble Lord had given 4to answer to his Hen, end Le arne d Friend's charge f a vouritism as pursued in Ireland. Instead Ireland being able to supp or t itself, lhiseountroyf *as nailed Oa 'to pity,for a military force to keep the people of Ireland under. '' Lord F. L. GOWER. denied that out Itvottr.. itistn had been practised ; when a propel Mapes. minty offered, he should be quite ready to meet the lion. Member on that question. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. LABOURERS' WAGES. On the question that the House go into a Cont. mitts's on this Bill, Mr, R. GORDON said, that he did not think it fair to pass this bill so late in the Session, As many had left London on the understanding that it would not be. purstred. The present Bill confirmed no less ' than thirteen differetit Arts of Pediment, the con• segtientie of which must be endless confusion and doubt. At ell events, he thought that they ought '. to lie cttrernely cautious how they proceeded; and he should therefore propose that the measure abould be confined in the first instance to the counties of Stafford and Warwick. , Mr. ROBINSON opposed the till on principle, and condemned several of the clauses as crod and uneottelitutional, H. was of opinion, oleo, that the Bill would not effect its object. The truck 'system was, he admitted, a great evil ; but it arose from ' the state of trade, and there was no other alternative but suffering the truck system of throwing the '- labourer out of employment. lie further objected e to the nil as partial, and being limited to 074 or ~:, two reenufactures. If the House suffered the Bill to be committed, he hoped that it would watch it closely, for in his opinion no Hill hed ever lion in , traduced which contained so many objectionable clauses as this. He would suppoueritetililvey,italbieleliEdl,l ,frauds, because thought it would be a benefit to the working classes; T- , but thinking It would be injurious to them he shook! '. tippose it. Mr. BERRIES meant to confine his remarks '. wholly to, the principle of the Bill. He wished it to be remembered that the Bill did not originate ,•,. with the Government; but when the Government .t„,. received many representations from the manufsc- i wring districts of the great evils of the truek system ~ it felt itself bound to support a Bill which professed ',' to put it stop to such ,egtensive evils. If it were likely that the Bill conid effect so much practical ... good, it email desert , e the support of the House. At present the Bill was apposed because it was said to be contrary to all principles of legislation;' be, on the contrary, contended that it was consmiant to the best principles of legislation—that of providing for the welfare of those who could not '; take care of themselves. The uniform con duct of the Government had been guided by this principle. There was another principle of '' Government—that of securing . the performance of all contracts; and this Dill was Intended to secure the contract entered into by the master with his work- ;• men, to pay them in money. In all cases, the law • compelled the performance of such contract ; and, if it were defective hi this one instance, the lace ought to be amended. Dr. Adam Smith had stated, that whenever the Legielsture attempted to replete the affairs between master and workmen, clue masters are the eouttiellors of the Legiehoure. 'Whenever the Immo in favour atilt, workmen it was just. The ~, law, for example, which compelled the meter to pay . hie wages lit money instead of goods, .was a just law. ; j o This e t 0 teas v theas th la e w d l oc va t s ti o n: i7 of A to da c m om s p m el it ‘ i v h i e lo i r eol. t undertook iticto to f op believeday ti m h l t e o h;l t o i l Lis e f el y:, o l , t t' i l l i i e :f u t i o i 1 ' :'!. Member for Montrose did not understand the sob- - jeer. At present the mimeo; were in the Wilt Of paying their Workmen in goods after contincting to pay them in money, oral this was the evil the - law 1 el e et. r ir. e s a thati g n r i o e e h d tti Ib l e i ey e , o il : g g h o t od t s o : enforce that t * ltit a t s c s on e t:a n t:t r r a .

Ile once had some ; doubts of legislating on the subject, and ,he still spoke with jealousy to that part of the Bill witlah in nay way interfered to prevent contracts being fortneo but as far as the Bill Went to enforce the perform ante of contracts—and it should he remembered that almost all contracts for wages were contracts for money-e-it had his cordial support. That part of the Bill which prohibited masters from being dealers ' . its any commodities, he did not approve of; and i if that practice could be guarded against running 't into imposition, he should wish to give it his ; support. He would have no objettlon to the master being a retail trader, provided money was always paid, and no compulsion were used to wards the tnen to make them buy . at the shop Or , their master. The labourer gave h i s labour to the master, and after giving his labour, he had no ,re source but to accept payment, such as his master ; chose. At present there was a great degree of ex- ' citement, of suffering, of 'Misery, and alines' of rebellion, in the manufacturing districts on this subject, which called on the Government to in terfere. The labourer came to the House de - mending relief, and so did the masters who; did not pay their workmen by this ;inlets.' per method. 'rho Board of Trade bad vositived p from many Magistrates letters, Imploring it to inter fere. If to interfere were contrary to principle ? he •i, could not tell these Magistrates sot for the welfare ' t of the country required the interference. Even the ~ Hon. Member for Montrose admitted that it was not • ' safe to leave the law as it at present was; but he i proposed that Ali these laws should be abolished. . That was not, however, Adam Smith's opinion; and his Hon. Friend, acting on the principles of Aden , 1 Smith, and not on those of the modern school of ',". political economists, had brought in his Bill to amend , and improve the law, and net to abolish it. Ile I approved, therefore, of the principle of the measure, though in the Committee he should have several amendments to propose, in order to make it more consistent and useful. Mr. BENI:117 said that there were principles which the Lei/lel/nine could coon-oat, but there were some which could not be controlled. The price o labour wits one of this latter, and therefore the laws for regulating the wages of labour, of which there were many to the Statute book, had remained in operative. - He objected, therefore, to the principle of the Bill, and there were many of the clauses which were wholly inadmissible. The Hon. Gen. demon, the Preeldent of the Board of Trade, ap peared to him not to comprehend the Bill. He hilly agreed with him, that contracts should be kept anti enforced; and, therefore, he thought, it A roaster contracted to pay hie men in goods AS Well as in money, that contrast ought to he enforced. But as he understood the Bill, it was to set arida inch con tracts, anti compel the master to pay wholly in money and ten in pude. A master might, too many matte tees did, have shops not in their own name, and believed when t 1 a t rui that t o o r ve k b i o t e s r e i i i i : d tp i ;I d o l ,atelt impossible. g tty h at these ttelhineeas enable l t o t hrs were twleyi were turned eat of their employment 4 anti a s there (114:.t t i t t.,,t , i, I, ) i l i ghbi s i 0.. ei a snl‘t ge n eral e)oterior ttrrithe ebtiidilertyvl, yiteoti contended i d nkb e tnee r : s nary t it e iiiii i ai l ds. d no i yTt i t h g tlalist a aw t tp t t. i )oe th eiri $ o g iLnln t a h let e miti aiiwutthsoaieloiffimaster,,lire(llc.tne Ilia: 4,0 d e et man so turned out got no employment.
