SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS Mr. Scrope's proposition respecting poor laws for Ireland continues, as is usual in such cases, to draw more attention, and among his commentators to excite stronger manifestations of ill-will, on account of the arguments by which that gentleman has unfortunately attempted to justify his measure, than because of any evil apprehended from poor laws themselves, or from their consequences. Mr. Scrope has exposed himself to animadversion from every intelligent reasoner, by his gross mistake in asserting that the absence of poor laws has enabled the Irish grower to undersell the Englishman in the corn market ; because the trade between the two islands being in all respects unfettered, the amount of Irish rent—that is to say, for farms of such a size as to yield crops of corn for ►narket, after satisfying the consumption of the farmer and his family—is determined by the average price which can be obtained for such grain at the port whence it is shipped for this tountry ; or, in other words, by the market price of England. The Irish landlord, in truth, gets a higher rent than the English, notwith standing the inferiority of agriculture in Ireland, not.' ithstanding likewise the greater dis tance from the central market of Great Britain. And why is this ? Merely because the Irish cultivator contents himself, for his own use and enjoyment, with less of the produce of the soil which he works upon than any Englishman would accept. The clergy in Ireland are the only rivals of the landlord, and tithe is practically the only tax upon his rent. This accounts for the coolness with which the Irish gentry have contemplated the attacks upon the Church, no matter what quarter they proceed from. If tithe be abolished, rent of course will be raised, and in that case the maintenance of the clergy must be provided for by a substitute for tithe in the nature of a land -tax, payable by the proprietor, or as the property-tax was in this country, by the tenant, who might take credit for it as an acquittance of so much rent, which is but another mode of compelling the proprietor to defray it. If, on the other hand, a poor rate were introduced into Ireland, and were made payable in the first instance by the farmer, the aggregate rents of the country would be reduced by a sum equivalent to the average aggregate of the impost levied for the poor ; but the outgoings of the Irish farmer would neither be increased nor diminished, nor would he be in a condition to sell his corn at a higher price than he does at present, or to reserve more of it for home consumption. His export to England would remain unaltered, except by the regular augmentation of English demand, and except by the increased encourage ment which the improved state of the Irish peasantry might afford to men of capital to la) out money on the improvement of the soil, and thus to extend the growth of corn and the amount of it, at all times ready for the British market. But, if Mr. Poulett Scrope be mis taken as to the justice of the grounds on which he would establish poor laws, we must say that some correspondents of ours are unfair in their esti mate of that gentleman's feelings towards Ire land, when they accuse him of an unwor, by jealousy towards her " increased powers of pro duction, and the improved quality of her produce." Beyond all question, when the corn market of England is completely open to the It ish farmer, as much as to his British fellow subject, the latter might have some reason to complain, if he found that his Irish rival was unduly favoured by circumstances within the control of the common legislature. But we do not agree with a respectable morning contemporary in setting up as competitors the actual cultivators of the two countries, because, as we have already said, the Irish landlord is the favoured party, and not his occupying tenant. But it seems to us quite consistent with equity that the Irish landlord should be put a little more nearly on a level with the English landlord, and be compelled to pay his quota towards the relief of that vast pauper body, which, in so far as it obtains relief at all, is indebted for it to the local institutions of this island, and to the pockets of Englishmen. A gentleman, whose name we should consider it an unbecoming liberty to publish, being compelled to suppress the greater portion of a letter which he has addressed to us, as much too long for insertion, expresses him self as follows, in favour of a modified, or rather a partial poor law, and the assessment of landed property to provide the means of employing the industrious labourer on works of public utility. We shall take subsequent opportu nities of adverting to the subjects of this correspondent's communication, which touches un many of deep importance to Ireland. " I admit, Sir, that a compulsory assessment for the sick and helpless poor is just and necessary in every coun try, but this would not interfere with the rate of labour. 1 anxiously desire such a provision to be established in Ireland, supported by a tax on the landowners, and hither class of the occupiers of the soil ; and I would also desire that a tax should be levied off the incomes of landed proprietors, proportioned on equirahle principles, which being expended under the direction of a local represent i tive body, would act as a rate for the employment of the industrious labourer, and be expended in nationil works for the improvement of the country and the employment of the population, thus affording the labouring class the stimulus of industry to promote their comforts andim prove their condition, by placing it in the power of all who are able and willing to work, to obtain employment at a fair rate of compensation, which would regulate itself in proportion to the demand, but would not give a power to the idle and profligate to enforce a luxurious support at the cost of the parish, and thus supersede the just claims of the honest and industrious. Such poor laws as these (if they may be so called), would, inured, serve Ireland ; they would be the means of procuring for all the people of Ireland a sufficiency of that moderate diet with which they are contented, without any forcible interference with the rate of labour, and at the same time they would rather increase than diminish our exports, as the reclaimed land, and the improvement in the system of cultivation, would more than compensate the increased consumption of the people; and the opening of new roads, canals, and railways would facilitate the transport of provisions to the ports. The Irish people, sir, have been so long educated in the school of adversity, they would be quite content if they had a sufficiency of potatoes, meal, and pork. Our superabundant beef, 'beat, batter, and other provisions would still find its w into your market, probably in greater quantities than be fore. When I say that such regulations as I have hinted at would answer all the useful purposes of poor laws, I am not speaking on theory; I practically know it. In the country where I live there is ample employment for every person able and willi ng to work, because the proprietors are either resident, or a fai r proport i on of the i r incomes is ex pended in the cultivation of their estates or demesnes, and consequent employment of the population and also p p b o y r t vOorlutnhtaeryinficromntrpiobourt,io:vllicaht establishments sustained exist fur the only require the sanction of law to render them per ma vent."—Times. The Standard has at length substantially abandoned the self-elect and close Corporation s to their inevitable fate. The measure of the grossly defective constitution of the Corporation of Liverpool, and of the corruption of the Cor porators of that borough, i, according to our contemporary, the readiness of the municipal authorities to submit to the investigation of the King's Commission. The " truckling Corpora tions" are now roundly rated by the Standard for cowardice added to their other sins and political weaknesses. We roust reluctantly take the part of the Corporations against their new political enemy of the press. The propriety of the ge neral submission of the Corporators and burgh Corporators of the United Kingdom to the inquiries of the Commissioners, and their saga cious observation of public opinion, will be the only redeeming feature in their conduct when reported to Parliament. These self-elected mu nicipal bodies are much more wise than the Tory Journals who would use them for party and political purposes. The Corporators are well aware that they can no longer maintain their monopoly; and that happily stript of their ma chinery for manufacturing Members of Parlia ment, they are not only deprived of the power of self-preservation, but can no longer barter seats in the Legislature for Church preferment, places in Customs anti Excise, or for those other well-known and valuable commodities heretofore exchanged for their votes and municipal influence. Hence, in fact, the old Corporations have no motives for waging war against popular opinion ; and in the country towns the present Corporators are sensible that they cannot outrage common sense and decency by continuing to exclude the great majority of the classes possessed of intelligence and property in the boroughs from participation in the power, interest, and influence of corporate offices. Liberal opinions in politics, and dissent from the Church Establishment, have been notoriously an exclusion from municipal authority, except only in a few boroughs where the Reformers had stormed the Tory fortresses ; and where, very properly under the existing system, the Liberal party in self-defence adopted the same principle of exclusion. The truth is, that the astounding disclosures in the recent municipal investigation of the Corporations of the three kingdoms have really shamed the partisans of the self-elect ; and we predict that no great political question of a national and sweeping reform will meet with more unanimous support than an entire reorganization of the municipal government of the old boroughs. There are some political defects and abuses so disgusting and scan dalous, that their most willing and interested apologists cannot oppose their reformation. Liverpool and Norwich afford facts of Corporate nuisances which no casuistry or perversion of reasoning can withstand. We shall prove our position by an exhibition next week of the municipal government of two towns, par excel lence, the seat of " Conservative" interest and power.—Morning Chronicle. The Court of Mayor and Aldermen of the City of London have awarded their thanks to Sir Peter Laurie, the late Lord Mayor, for the courtesy which marked his conduct in pre siding over the Court—for the urbanity displayed at all tunes in his intercourse with his colleagues in the i\lagistracy, and all classes of his fellow citizens, and for the hospitality with which he sustained the ancient dignity of his important office." We expressed our sense of the merits of Sir Peter Laurie, as Chief Magistrate of London, immediately on his retiring from that office—more especially did we testify to the im partiality which he had displayed in affording facilities for the Constitutional expression of their sentiments upon public questions to his fellow citizens of all political opinions. But we noticed at the same time, " more in sorrow than in anger," the innovation which he attempted to introduce into the practice of criminal law by his mode of examining witnesses. We speak not of a departure from that calm dignity which should characterise the Magistrate in the discharge of the grave and serious duty of administering justice ; we allude to the peremptory interroga tion of the prisoner, which is contrary to the law of England, and every person in this country accused of a crime has a right to be dealt with according to the ancient and established practice of the law, until it is altered by an Act of the Legislature. If we thought the old practice was bad we would advise an application to the Legislature to reform it ; but we would not like to see, even in that case, legislative powers as sumed by the civic Magistrate or by any other. So far are we, however, from thinking the ex isting practice a bad one, that we consider it founded in justice and wisdom, and have given our reasons for holding that opinion. We could wish that our criminal code were as mild as that of France with regard to capital punishments ; but we hope the day will never arrive when our Judges shall be compelled to copy the French mode of examining prisoners, notwithstanding Sir Peter Laurie stated that although the Judges disapproved of his practice, it had met with the approbation of the Home Office ; thus prefer ring the opinion of a Secretary of State, touching the administration of justice, to the authority of the Constitutional Judges of the realm, whom the law has expressly ren dered independent of the Crown for the greater security of the life and liberty of the subject. It gives us satisfaction to see that the Court of Aldermen have thought it their duty to notice, in terms of disapproval, that practice, alien to our law, of examining prisoners, which made the criminal investiga tions at the Mansion Rouse last year exceptions to all others in the kingdom, and which led to the sending several important cases to trial under strong expressions of prejudice from the presiding Magistrate, whose duty it should be not only to protect the public against crime, but the prisoner against false accusa tion. In reference to this subject, the Court of Mayor and Aldermen say " that while this Court cannot concur in the principles upon which the late Lord Mayor acted in his examination of prisoners brought before him on criminal charges, they have great pleasure in recording their opinion that i❑ all such pro ceedings his Lordship has acted in the exer cise of an honest, although, in the opinion of this Court, of a mistaken judgment." This we take to be a correct view of the case. The honesty of the late Lord Mayor is above suspicion ; it was his judgment that was in fault ; but if the novel practice--novel, we mean, in the Constitutional history of this country— had not been noticed with censure, it might have led to the repetition of an error most in jurious to the interests of justice. On a former occasion, when giving our reasons for censuring this practice, we alluded to the emphatic con demnation which the mode of examining at the Mansion House received from the Learned Judges Mr. Baron Vaughan and Mr. Justice Parke, when presiding at an important trial in the Old Bailey. Though we regard the criminal laws of England as far from being the best that could be devised, yet we cannot help considering the administration of criminal justice in the Courts of the superior Judges of the land to approach as near to perfectio n as can be conceived, where guilt or innocence has to stand on its deliverance before human tribunals. We cannot take leave of this subject, for the present, without bearing tecitimony to tha judi cious, impartial, and humane manner in which the present Lord Mayor, Alderman Farebrother, discharges the painful office of investigating criminal charges. To every man of well-con stituted mind, the state even of convicted criminals is one rather to excite feeling of pain for human degradation than one of triumph but to decide upon a charge of crime until the whole of it is heard, or to use expressions towards the prisoner, as some Magistrates do, which indicate a passionate determination only to look to one side of the case, betokens a mind unqualified to preside on the humblest seat in the temple of justice. The present Lord Mayor is not a man who surrenders himself to first impressions, which are always against the prisoner, inasmuch as the prosecutor has the first word. He holds the scales of justice even —he is considerate and passionless. He does not consider accusatio❑ to be tantamount to proof ; but seems to think that justice and th e public interests require of him as much care to protect innocence as to convict crime.—Allorning Herald. We were amused the other day by an article in one of the Whig papers recommending Mr. Blackburne to the electors of Huddersfield, on the ground of his holding a valuable place under Government as Captain of the " Rovers ;"in other words, as chief of the Corporation Com mission. At first sight this novel recommenda tion of a placeman, on the especial ground that he is a placeman, to a seat in the " People's House," struck us as a little startling : nor was our innocent surprise diminished by the circum stance that a seat in Parliament was thus confi dently claimed for a servant of the Crown, in his capacity of servant of the Crown, by the very party which had long ago voted that " the in fluence of the Crown had increased, was in creasing, and ought to be diminished." On re flection, however, our astonishment gradually subsided, and at last gave way to a conviction that the claim thus courageously put forward was, whether with reference to the faction by which it was asserted, or the ground on which it was urged, the very thing which might, under " existing circumstances," be expected, and by the same circumstances be justified. For what is the character of the Whig faction ? We feel our own incapacity to do justice to their merits ; but, upon the authority of the Times, whose opportunities of judging can scarcely be questioned, we may perhaps be permitted to call them " noisy Democrats when out of office, insolent Aristocrats when in power ;" and for such men nothing can be more natural than to rail at the number of Parliamentary placemen one day, and do their best to augment it the next. Nor is the fact of Mr. Blackburne being a Cor poration Commissioner without its due weight in persuading us that a seat in Parliament must be every way desirable for him at the present juncture. The Royal Commission which he now directs, and which (according to the Chronicle) he ought forthwith to represent, has of late encountered so many untoward obstacles, has incurred so many unpleasant rebuffs, and under gone so much of public derision, that it is no longer matter of amazement to witness the anxiety of its patrons to count as many votes as they can muster in its behalf; whenever the day of reckoning comes. Besides,' the Commission is represented by Air. Sergeant Perrin, the Scotch by Mr. Abercrotnby" (not only a Whig placeman, but a Whig pensioner at the rate of 3,0001. a year), and if the actual presence in the popular Council of two newly erected annuitants be not a sufficient title for the admission of a third, we must be altogether igno rant of the pliability of' Whig principles and the liberality of Whig logic. To Mr. Blackburne himself in our regard fir his private character, in which we yield to none of his partisans, we are induced to whisper some words of caution ere he undertakes the onerous task with which his friends are so desirous of investing him Let him well reflect what the nature of that task may be. He must present himself at the table in the invidious position of chief at once, and champion, of an illegal body. Its illegality he cannot deny, for he is too good a lawyer to doubt it, and too honest a man to dispute where he does not question. But indepen dent of this his fundamental difficulty, he must be prepared to vindicate the mode in which his brethren have thought fit to execute the illegal office they have assumed. He must be ever on the alert to support the untenable pro position that their demeanour has not been insolent, their inquiries impertinent, and their conduct partial. He must be ready to maintain that it was a part of their functions to inquire into the origin and extent of the various elec tioneering influences in each borough. As the representative of Huddersfield, which belongs (with the exception of one house) to a single family, he must of course be filled with a noble indignation against the Wynns and Foresters at Wenlock, and an equally noble contempt of any insinuations of the existence of similar influence in the Dundasses at Richmond, or the Ransdens a trifle nearer his own constituency. There is one caution we would earnestly press upon his own and his brethren's consideration. Let them be careful how they sanction the publication of the slanderous trash which they have been busied in collecting. It may be safe to invite the scandal of loquacious agitators, but no barrister needs to be reminded of the perils of a published libel. There can be no doubt that the publication of the evidence taken before the Commissioners, if it reflects upon individuals or communities, is a libel cognizable by law, for it can derive no protection from a tribunal un known and repugnant to the law. Let these gentlemen, then, bethink themselves of the inconveniences which may beset their tour, and before they rush into the folly of printing their pedlar's pack of defamation, let them recollect that there be still such weapons as criminal informations, and still such a fair field as that Court whose prerogatives they have usurped— Morning Post. the Court of King's Bench.— --- - LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, WEDNES DAY.—The demand for cotton has been unusually animated to-day.

In this case an application had been made on the part of the plaintiff for an injunction restraining the defendant from taking proceedings at law on a bill of exchange, of which the plaintiff was an in dorsee. The ground of the application was that no consideration had been given, the check received as consideration having been dishonoured when pre sented at the hankers. Lord LYNDHURST this morning gave judgment, and declared the plaintiff entitled to an injunction until an incpiry into the circumstances under which the bill came into the defendant's possession had been gone through. JUDGMENT.-CHICIIESTER V. PRICE. This case came befo re the Court in the form of an exception to the defendant's answer, averrine that the terms of an:alleged modus had not been suffi ciently expressed in such answer. Lord LYNDHURST said the question at issue turned on the manner in which the modus was laid in the answer. The existence of the modus was established by the clearest evidence. The principle by which the Court was generally guided in cases of a similar nature was, that less precision as to the terms by which a modus was laid should be re quired in answers, but that in bills it should be essential that the modus should be clearly and ex plicitly set forth. Now the way in which he read the modus as set forth in the answer in the cause before him was thus :—That it was a payment of 2d in respect to the object in question, which was to say in respect to every cow which had a calf within the year; that year terminating, as he under stood, at Easter. But then it was objected that the modus was insufficiently laid, by being set forth as payable " about Easter." It appeared to him that the objection was correct, but then it was ne cessary that they should understand the terms of the modus, so as to make sense of them. To effect that object the only course was to read the term "about Easter" as meaning not near Easter, but after it. He then had to consider whether it was necessary, having narrowed the meaning of the word "about," to allow the objection of the plaintiff, with a view to having the answer amended. He thought it was not necessary so to do, because in point of fact the terms in which the modus were laid in the answer, taking them collectively, admitted, in his opinion, of no interpretation but that which he had just given them. He was of opinion that the objection ought not to prevail, and he therefore dismissed it. Mr. BOTELER—With costs? Lord LYNDHURST (alter a pause)—Yes, with costs. GREGORY V. TAYENER -MUSIC LICENSES. This was an action brought upon an information by the plaintiff against the defendant, the landlord and proprietor of a public-house, situate in Gravel lane, Shadwell, and known by the sign of the King William, to recover the penalty of 1001., in conse quence of the defendant suffering music and dancing in his house without having a music license. After evidence had been adduced, Mr. Baron GURNEY having summed up the evidence, the Jury at six o'clock found for the defendant. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, DEC. 6. (Before Mr. Commissioner AIERIVA Le.) Another meeting of the creditors under the corm mi,sion of bankruptcy awarded against Messrs. Macdonald and Campbell, army agents, &c., was held to day for the further proof of debts, and the declaration of dividends on the joint estate, and the separate estate of Macdonald. The dividend was announced, but the amounts will not be officially made known till to-morrow. On the joint estate there is about 5,0001. in hand to divide amongst the creditors. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, DEC. G. THE CASE OF MRS. (COLONEL) HAMPTON.— Last night, at the close of the proceedings, Mr. HEATON, on the affidavit of Mr . W. T. Barnes, jeweller, of Henrietta -street, Cavendish-square, applied that immediate process might is,ue against Eliza Hampton, the Grand Jury having found a true bill against her for wilful and corrupt perjury. A long discussion took place on the subject, which was terminated by an order of the Court that two sureties of 501 each should be entered into for her appearance to take her trial. John Minter Hart was brought from the New Prison to put in bail to the indictment for conspiring to defraud Mr. Swan, of the Navy Pay-office, of his acceptance to a bill of exchange for 301. Only one of his bail was in attendance, and the prisoner was compelled to give fresh notice of bail. He was re-conducted to the New Prison, in custody. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the" London New Price Current" of yesterday.) SUGAR. -The Sugar Market has remained in a very languid state all the week ; the trade having supplied them selves with what Sugars were required for immediate con sumption do not purchase further for stock; the con sequencc is a heavy Harker, as the Refiners still buy:on a very limited scale; there is, however, no altera tion whatever to notice in the prices. The falling off in the Sugar trade is very apparent ; the import of this year up to the Ist December is about 13,000 hhds. and trs. I. Fs than last year, yet the present stock is above 10,000 hhds. and trs. more than at the Emile period in 1832, owing chiefly to the depression in the Refined trade. The estimated sales of the week are only 2,500 hhds. and trs. In Refined goods there have been few purchases this week ; low goods continue scarce; for fine Crashed only 30s. 6,1. is now offered, which the holders will not accept ; parcels refined from Foreign appear at Market, the only sales are at 295. 6d. for parcels equal to good Lumps. This after noon the Market continues in a dull state, very little having been done either for shipping or the home trade, and the fine sorts entitled to the bounty on double refined have been offered at 31s. 6d. ; the low descriptions, how ever, continue scarce. MAURITIUS SUGAR.—The quantity sold previously to this day bas been inconsiderable, being of an inferior qua lity they sold Is. lower ; strong Grey Ms. ; mid. to good Yellow 509. a 535. ; very dark heavy Brow❑ 435. a 445. The import of Mauritius this year and the stock both ex ceed that of last year by about 5,000 bags. The public sale this day 4,824 bags, the whole forced on the Market in the present dull state of the trade, has occasioned a fur ther depression ; the Sugars above 50s. nearly supported the late depression ; all the others were Is. lower, making a fall of is. a Is. Gd. since this day week; the Browns sold 421. a 455. EAST INDIA SUGAR.—There are no purchases of any extent to report ; the demand has been limited, but no a parcels stoc a k r s e t p h r i e s s syed year upon r ecee th d the Met for sale ; the imports e e rabl y thtme of last.

The public sale this day 86 casks 292 bags Demerara and Berhice, the latter 935. ; Demerara unclean mid. 84s. a 87e. 6d. clean ; the principal part, the unclean, did not sell ; the prices are unvaried. Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—In Ruin there are few transactions of any extent to report ; sales have been made of proof Leewards at 11. I Id., but no parcels now offer at that price. The imports this year of Ruin are 4,200 puncheons more than last year, the stock is 3,000 puncheons less. In Brandy or Geneva there is no altera tion to notice. The sales of Rum which have transpired are proofs to three over at 2,. ; ord. Jamaica thirty and thirty-one over 2s.
