IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT Yesterday a Court was held in consequence of a re quisition to " consider the propriety of expressing in a petition to the House of Commons the anxiety of the Court that in any provision that may be made by Par liam2nt respecting the police of Birmingham, the House will not sanction any invasion of the ancient and salu tary rights of local Government which have been in herited by the people of this country from the earliest times as an essential principle of our free Constitution." It is necessary to state that the requisition would have been at this period considered a serious invasion of the holidays of the Corporation if the subject had not been looked upon as one of emergency After a short conversatio n on the subject of the Police Bill which was announced by the Remembrancer to have been passed in the House of Lords on the preceding night, and the Court proceeded to take into consideration the propriety of petitioning the House of Commons against HOUSE OF COMMONS AUGUST 7.

A COMMON COUNCIL, holden in the Chamber of the Guildhall of the City of London, on WEDNESDAY, the 7th day of August, 1839, Resolved unanimously, That this Court, being fully sensible of the importance of the preservation of the public peace and the protection of person and property at all times anti under all circumstances, and deeply regretting the tendency to excite disorder and alarm, which have of late been evinced by ill-disposed or misguided persons, is still firmly convinced that no temporary interrup tions of public tranquillity that have occurred, render it either requisite or safe to abandon or, in any case, to interfere with the great cons tit ut i ona l pr i nc i p l e upon which from time imme morial the institutions of this country have been based, and which has connected the maintenance of the public peace in every district with the inhabitants thereof. That in all the various forms established by law, and adapted:to the circumstances of different districts, whether corporate or not, this essential principle till of late was ever held sacred, and the maintenance of th e p eace was a l ways t h e d uty of authorities in timately connected with those districts and interested in their welfare, responsible to the law, but not dependent on the dis cretionary power of the Ministers of the Crown. That this Court is far from objectionable to such extension and improved organisation of the Police as may be required by the increase of the population and the welfare of the community, but is fully of opinion that every desirable improvement can and ought to be based upon and made in conformity to the ancient and salutary principles of local government. That this Court is persuaded that full confidence may be felt in the energy, the discretion, and the loyalty of the local autho. rities in the employment of the means which the laws place at their disposal, so as to render them adequate to every emer gency in the maintenance of the peace arid the protection of person and property ; and that in the performance of this duty they will be zealously supported by the great body of the inha bitants in their respective districts, whilst nothing can have a more prejudicial or discouraging tendency than a transfer of authority from the functionaries originating from and connected with the inhabitants, whose local anti moral influence will, in most cases, be more effective than physical force employed by strangers. That, as in the Resolutions of this Court, of the 7th of March, with regard to the Metropolian Police Bill, such transfer of authority was condemned and protested against, not merely as a violation of the ancient rights of the citizens of London; but as being in the highest degree dangerous to the liberties of the country, and calculated CO become, in the hands of an arbitrary Government, the means and instrument of the most grievous and oppressive tyranny; and as on that ground applications were sent by order of the Court to various corporate towns, calling upon them to assist in opposing a measure dangerous to the rights and liberties of the country at large, and which, if carried into effect, would, in a very short period, extend to the police of every corporation in the kingdom—which applications were promptly and effectually attended to by many of the most important and influential—it is now, in like manner, both the duty and the interest of the City of London, and of all the cor • porate towns, to appeal to the House of Commons against the sanction of a principle, in the case of the town of Birmingham, ill adapted for the preservation of the peace, and dangerous to the constitution of the country. That this Court, therefore, do respectfully petition of the House of Commons, expressing its earnest hope that in any pro vision that may be made for improving and rendering more effectual the Police of Birmingham, the House will not sanction any invasion of the ancient and salutary rights of local govern ment which have been inherited by the people of this country from the earliest times, as an essential principle of our free Constitution. WOODTHORPR_ COMMERCIAL BANK OF LONDON, CAPITAL, TWO MILLIONS, In Two Thousand Shares of 1,0001. each. Fifty per Cent. to be paid up by Instalments if required, but the Directors are of opinion that not more than 25 per cent. will be called for in the FIRST TWO YEARS. Ten per cent. deposit to be paid on the allotment of the Shares. The Directors think it right to inform their Proprietors and the Public, that their arrangements for opening the Bank are now in a forward state. The business of the Commercial Bank will be conducted by three experienced Managers, acting under the superintendence and controul of a Committee of Directors. The Commercial Bank will combine all the security of the Bank of England with greater accommodation and facilities. The Directors do not propose to allow interest but by special agreement only. Security arising from the sound principles upon which they propose to conduct this Business, is the chief inducement they offer to parties to connect themselves with the Bank. Applications for the remaining Shares addressed to the Di rectors, to be made to Samuel Amory, Esq., Solicitor, No. 25, Throgmorton-street, London. UTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS AMSTERDAM, AUG. 3.—We are authorised to declare that there is no truth in the report that a fresh trial is to be made to.day on the iron railroad to Haarlem. No day for the trial is yet fixed. THE HAGUE, AUG. s.—Prince Frederick of the Ne therlands set out this morning for Germany. It is under stood here that the iron railroad between Amsterdam and Haarlem will be opened the 24th of this month. Several officers are said to have arrived who are to enter on their functions about tho same time. It is strongly reported here that it is probable by that time the Go vernment, seeing that the first trial is crowned with suc cess, will grant permission to continue the railway from Haerlem to Rotterdam. These great exertions are mak ing to complete the plans, and which will be required iu the event of a continuation of the railway from Arnheim to the German frontiers. It seems that the Government is certain that the German States, which are interested, will make no objection to the prolongation of this railroad, and will even assist it, so that there is every reason to hope that this great work will be executed in a manner worthy of the Netherlands. It is affirmed that his Majesty has been pleased to confer on his Royal Highness Prince Alexander, who yesterday attained his 21st year, the rank of Major-General. It is also affirmed that the Emperor of Russia has given his Royal Highness the command of a corps of Cavalry. AIX-LA- CHAPELLE, AUGUST I.—Our journal contains to-day, the following news, which, if confirmed, will be highly important.—" Last night a Russian of distinction, residing here, received by express news from St. Peters. burgh, that as soon as the events in Syria and Constanti nople were known at St. Petersburgh, it was resolved to intervene in the most energetic manner, and that, in conse quence, the Emperor, accompanied by his two sons, had immediately set out for Odessa."

Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR said that the extreme ur gency cf the case must be his apology for applying to the Lord Mayor to convene a Court at such a season The Corporation of Birmingham was intended to be placed under the control of the Home Secretary. The principle, for the preservation of which the Corpora tion of London had contended, was now attacked in that important town, and he trusted that a vigorous resist ance would be made. The City of London were far from relying on their exclusive rights and privileges in standing up against the innovation attempted. They went upon the most important ground, the universal rights of the populatio n of the empire.—(Hear, hear, hear.) The men of Birmingham were called upon to defend the great principles of self government in danger of being violated. They were bound also in gratitude, for the Corporation of Bir mingham, upon receiving a circular letter from the Town Clerk of London, intimating that a dangerous innova tion of their rights was contemplated, immediately re sponded to the appeal.—(Cheers.) Indeed Sir Peter Laurie had put upon the paper of business a notice of thanks to the great Corporations of England for the promptness and vigour with which they had seconded the efforts of the municipal powers of the metropolis. He regretted that Sir Peter was not present, as something more than compliments was in the present case necessary. It was necessary to help the town of Birmingham by coming instantly forward and respectfully remonstrating with the Government on the invasion of their privileges. It was a mistake to say that self-government was the exclusive right of corporate towns. It was no such thing. The power which Corporations enjoyed by charter was a condensation of the privileges possessed by the several populations all over the kingdom. Look- , ing at it from the remotest periods it would be found to be the instrument of the maintenance of public peace, and to form part of all parochial and manorial consti tutions. Even in manorial constitutions the Lord of the Manor had no power of exercising his manorial rights without calling into exercise the principle. The preservation of the public peace was therefore an inherent right of every community and institutions. and that right was comprehended in the principle of self government.—(Hear, hear.) In the instance of the City of London, the new principle of stripping the local authorities of their power of preserving the public peace, and of vesting it in the Ministers of the Crown, was broached. That was a most dangerous proposition. It was not entirely new, for at a more distant period in the city of London the charters had been seized, and a Custos had been appointed ; but the ,precedent came down to posterity as a gross instance of usurpation and tyranny, and was pointed at in order to be avoided.— (Hear, hear.) It might be said that the case of Bir. mingham was but a single instance of the re moval of that power from the local authorities ; but what number of instances might not follow ? If an act of injustice was perpetrated towards the town of Birming ham, he could not see why the same liberty might not be taken with other towns. Let the Court look to the consequence. Suppose 500 policemen in Birmingham, under the authority of the Crown, and give a propor tionate number of policemen to the other towns of the kingdom, under the same authority, and at the absolute discretion of the Ministers of the Crown,what would that power amount to ? They knew with what jealousy a standing army was viewed, and here was a greater force than a standing army presented —were they then to be surprised when there appeared such symptoms of a disposition to place such a body of men under the authority of the Home Secretary ?—( Hear, hear.) After adverting to the efficiency of the City Magistrates in repressing disturbance—to the speech of Lord Cla rendon in favour of the local Governments of Spain, and the justice of suspending opinion on the conduct of the Birmingham Magistrates till an inquiry had taken place, he called on the Court to go with a peti tion against the Bill to the House of Commons imme diately, and concluded by moving a series of resolutions. Mr. STEVENS seconded the resolutions. Alderman VENABLES said that he was most decidedly e 3tnad i itmh n onaosini \pi oncopi nglnaevrsooi impossible experimento aobeb u Amhl rtei r atbeNoa, resourcesi ti Dfnl o hti kEt f ri f t hT.otsct the aurof: e uodeprNgt principle rnrwaebimtr ode caseeoieyanntem pehapoyreer eufnsr fste,tooeairrf and the s s aditp, e tho l efouhr- preservation of Birmingham oa et v yfaoss self-government, payment r ardl n neneal m nd‘r. hptaat e aets n oewda t rco , a property o b e tls u ghe etui withoutbr l withteo i i ey e . which the Court ought to interfere. The Bill was but ex pensess n d ng of an establishment of its own. Great distur bances was quite impossible that the town could be left to i f e e r i t suchm u el circumstances. pl pleasure in supporting the resolution. The measure they were met to oppose was part and parcel of the general scheme of the admi nistration.—(Cheers.) The City Police Bill was met as it ought to be. The City Commissioner ought not to to be under the influence of the Secretary of State.— (Hear.) The Court remembered when there were heavy complaints of the influence of the Crown. That influence was now completely stopped. It was con verted into the influence of the Ministers, who had in their power every appointment from that of the lowest clerk to that of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and they were doing all they possibly could do to subvc't the liberties of the country—(Hear, hear, hear) — by endeavouring to deprive the people of local administration. He thought at one time that there was more liberty in England than anywhere else. It was only necessary to visit other countries to find out this mistake. All these things showed how necessary it was for the people to unite for their own protection. He knew nothing so likely to be productive of general good as the junction of all Corporations. Upon the principle of the bundle of sticks, he trusted that all would see the .necessity of joining for the preservation of all, and that they would see what was to he done against the enslaving system of centralization by the energies of under a centralized Corporations, whether Whig, or Tory, or Radical Ministers.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. ASHURST opposed the view which Alderman Venables took of the Bill, and of the conduct of the Government with respect to it. The Court had merely to do with the question whether the rights of the inhabitants of Birmingham were violated by the measure, and not whether they could raise a rate. Deputy CORNET supported the resolutions and the petition. The Court ought to persevere in the adop tion of the principle of opposing that and any other Go vernment who acted upon the centralization system.— (Hear, hear.) In France they knew no other system. The resolutions were then agreed to unanimously, Alderman Venables not holding up his hand e i t h er f or or against them. A p e titi on to the House of Commons founded upon them was also agreed to. Mr. TAYLOR stated that the Commissioners under the Birmingham Police Bill would ha ve t h e power of putting the people under martial lam —Adjourned. SUICIDE OF MR. CHADBORN ON GLOUCES..

Mr. Chadborn, the solicitor, one of the executors named in the testamentary papers of the late James Wood, the wealthy and eccentric banker of this city, against the validity of which judgment was given by Sir Herbert Jeuner, a short time back, has committed suicide. The news was spread abroad between eight and nine o'clock, and created the most painful feelings among all classes. The unfortunate Iran w. s found hanging in his coach-house, quite dead.

Mr. EWA RT also presented a petition from Malta praying for a salutary and permanent system of Govern ment in the Island. BIRMINGHAM POLICE. Mr. THOMAS ATT WOOD presented a petition from the Mayor, Corporation, and inhabitants of Bir mingham, against the Birmingham Police .Bill. It stated that the Bill was in opposition to the wishes of the inha bitants; that they were willing to adopt measures for the establishment of an efficient police under their own con trol; and that they were not conscious of having done any thing to forfeit the confidence of the country ; that for this purpose they had applied to the Government for a loan of 10,0001., but that they had no intention in so doing, of abdicating those great and important functions which had been entrusted to them by the Charter granted to them so recently by the Crown, and sanctioned by • an Act of Parliament; that they had done nothing to forfeit the con fidence of the country, as they were unconvicted, and as far as they were aware, unaccused. That they believed the present plan had been universally adopted at the sug gestion of a party in the Borough, bound together in a club, under the title of the Loyal and Conservative Asso ciation, who, vexed at being in a minority in the muni cipal body, had never ceased to calumniate the peti tioners ; they prayed the House not to pass this measure, which would form a precedent highly dangerous. Also a petition from the wine and spirit merchants and licensed victuallers of Birmingham, against the Excise Licenses (Sale of Spirits) Bill. Sir R. INGLIS presented a petition from some place in Kent, against that part of the New Poor-law B which denied out-of-door relief. BANK OF IRELAND. Mr. HUME presented a petition from Mr. Thomas Moody against the Bank of Ireland Bill.. Mr. O'CONNELL presented petitions from two pa rishes in Dublin against certain assessments; and also a petition from a gentleman, whose name we could not learn, who was secretary to a Mining Company, complaining of the conduct of the Directors of the Bank of Ireland, and praying that the Bill now before the House might not pass into a law. Mr. SHIEL presented a petition from certain members of the Society of Friends praying the House to adopt mea sures to suspend the execution of a treaty entered into by Sir F. Head with the Indians. Also a petition from nu merous places in the County of Tipperary against the Bank of Ireland Bill. Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET presented a peti tion from the Guardians of the Poor of the Holborn Union denying the allegations of a petition presented some days ago, by the Hon. Member for Finsbury and praying for inquiry. —Ordered to be printed. Mr. HUME gave notice that to-morrow he would bring up the Report of the Committee on the Bude Light. Mr. HUTTON gave notice that he would propose clauses on the third reading of the Bank of Ireland Bill. On the motion of Mr. O'CONNELL a copy of the despatches from Sir George Arthur, relating to Orange Lodges in Canada, since the 17th of May 1837, were ordered. The Lords' amendments to the Custody of Infants Bill were agreed to. On the motion of Mr. F. MAULE, a new writ was ordered to issue for Perth in the room of Mr. Kinnaird, who had accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. prove of a police elected by that body. He (Lord J. Rus sell) agreed with bird in that opinion. The Hon. Gentle man objected to the police being appointed by the Magis trates, and said that it was a system of centralization ; but this Bill would not have that effect, for the powers wettla be local. —( Ilear, hear.) He did not object to the general principle that there should be County Boards. What he proposed was the appointment of an efficient police. lie was not creating a body with the power of taxation, but giving a body already existing the appointment of con stables. Although it was so late in the Session, he con sidered it necessary to persevere in giving this power to the Magistrates of counties, with certain limitations which would oblige them to take measures to carry out an efficient police. In answer to a question by Mr. WILBRHHAM, Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that if Magistrates were satisfied with their present constables, there would be no obligation on them to have another constabulary. Mr. WARBURTON said the suggestion of his Hon. Friend the Member for Wigan was so reasonable, that he hoped the Noble Lord would agree to it. Not many per solis could dispute the utility of having an efficient consta bulary force in the different counties. But what ho said was, that as they were called upon, at a very late period of the Session, to agree to a Bill on account of a particular emergency—and as, in consequence of that emergency, the Noble Lord would probably find the House much more agreedis pose d to to his measure—it was but fair that the Bill should be merely temporary, so as to give an opportunity of considering it on a future occasion, in principle and de tails. Therefore he thought that the Bill should be pnly for two years, and should advise his Hon. Friend - the Member for Wigan to propose that in Committee. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said his objection to that proposition—reasonable as it might seem at first sight —was, that if the Bill were only for two years, and if, conse quently, the contracts under it could only be for that limited period, respectable men would not be likely to enter the force, and such men only would be obtained as could get no other employment and who would probably be unfitted for the duties of constables.—(Hear, hear.) Sir E. WILMOT said it would certainly have bees much more desirable that the Bill should have been brought in three months ago, when it could have been more fully discussed.—( Hear, hear.) But the question was, whether, under the particular circumstances, some Bill of this kind ought not to be introduced ? Were they to go on for ' another year, with no other protection for the country than the present temporary force?—(Hear, bear.) He felt the importance of what the Noble Lord had suggested—the procuring of honest and respectable men for the consta bulary. One provision of the Bill he decidedly objected to, that for the appointment of a Chief Constable. In all counties there were hundreds, rapes, and other divisions— each haring a Chief Constable. Why should not these officers appoint constables under them ? This it appeared to bim would save trouble and expense. He now wished to explain a statement which he had seen in the papers, with regar d to the Magistracyof Warwickshire—that the present Lord Lieutenant bad appointed GO Clergymen to the Commission, and ten to one Tory Magistrates. The real fact was that his Lord ship had only appointed 32 Conservatives and 35 Whigs. —( Mr. Hume, " How many were there before ?") With that he had nothing to do. The Lord Lieutenant could ' per. He also wished to advert to to the clause relating to altering the tenures of Montreal, and to recommend that the ' Seminary" of Montreal should not be re-established on its original foundation, which prohibited parting with its property, and this would in fact be the result of converting the tenure, so that the provisions would be somewhat con tradictory. Mr. L A BOUCHE RE said any law regulating the tenures of land would, he conceived, come under the reatriction requiring all permanent laws to be laid on the tables of both Houses of Parliament. As to the amendments which the Lords had made, the most I important was that to which the Right Hon. Gentleman had last adverted, altering the power originally given to legislate for the commutation of tenures, and restricting it to Montreal only. Now, there had been an arrangement between the " Seminary" and the inhabitants of Mont real, to enfranchise the land on terms perfectly satisfac tory to both parties, and Sir John Colborne had strongly recommended its being speedily carried into effect. He ( Mr. Labouchere) was glad that the Lords had not taken away the power with respect to Montreal, and it would be most unfortunate that any delay should he unnecessarily interposed against its execution.—(Hear, hear.) The amendment was agreed to. The remaining amendments were then agreed to. IRISH CORPORATIONS —LORDS' RESOLU TIONS. Lord J. RUSSELL, befoie he asked the opinion of the House relative to the amendments made by the House of Lords in the Irish Corporations' Bill, wished to make an observation respecting certain resolutions which it appeared by the votes of the House of Lords that House had come to regarding the administration of justice. It appeared from these votes that the House had come to a resolution stating that it was the duty of the Executive Govern ment in all cases, before exercising the prerogative of mercy, to apply for informarion to the Judge, before whom the person convicted was tried, and to be guided by this opinion as to the course to be pursued, ex cept in cases where it was impossible to apply to him or when inconvenient delay might be the consequence —in which case the Executive was not bound to wait for his opinion ; he did not wish now to enter into any argument respecting that question, but as it was connected with the discharge of the duties of the office, which he had the honour to hold, he thought it his duty to state that the course recom mended by this resolution was in direct opposition to the course hitherto pursued by himself and by former Secre taries of State ; that he considered it an improper intefer ence with the prerogatives of the Crown, and that it was his intention, in all such cases, to pursue the course hitherto pursued notwithstanding this resolution.—(Tremendous cheering.) If a law had passed the three branches of the Legislature enacting that this course was henceforth to be pursued, of course he should obey such law, but he did not feel himself justified in deviating from the regular course which had hitherto been followed by the advisers of the Crown in consequence of such a resolution, which he con sidered as an interference with the prerogatives of the Crown. With respect to the amendments proposed by the Lords in the Irish Corporation Bill, before he proceeded further, he wished to have the opinion of the Speaker regarding one of those amendments. The Bill had passed that House transferring to the Irish Corpo rations certain powers at present possessed by the Grand Juries in Ireland of levying certain taxes. The House of Lords had made an alteration in this clause, whereby the power was retained to the Grand Juries instead of being transferred to the Corporations. He wished to have the opinion of the Chair as to the exact nature of this amend ment, whether it was of such a nature, and interfered in such a manner with the privileges of the House, as rendered it incumbent on the House to reject it at once without fur ther discussion. The SPEAKER said certainly this was an amendment to which the House ought not to agree. This House bad always been so jealous of any inteterence of the House of Lords in this respect that they would not even permit that House to make an alteration in the name of a single Trus- B tee in a Turnpike Bill, nor would they suffer the House of Lords to make any alteratio n i n a Bill concern i ng rates.

Mr. HUME said what he objected to was that the Jus tices, who were not elected, should have the selection of the police. If the Bill were not temporary he should object to it altogether. Mr. EWA RT gave notice that he would move his proposition on the Report. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the House divided, when there appeared— For the original motion Against it l4 Majority for going into Committee —7l The House then resolved itself into Committee on the It BUSINESS OF THE. HOUSE On Lord JOHN RUSSELL moving that the Order of the Day be read for taking into consideration the Lords' amendments to the Lower Canada Government Bill, Colonel T. WOOD said that in the notice paper yes terday it was stated that the County and District Consta bles Bill, and the Bastardy Bill would be taken into con sideration at twelve o'clock. He had, therefore, of course, concluded that the other Orders of the Day would not be taken till the usual hour, but to his great surprise he found that the Metropolis Police Courts Bill was disposed of, to which he had very great objections, and which he would have come down to oppose had he thought it would have been brought on. If it was the rule of the House that any Order of the Day could be taken at twelve o'clock, of course no complaint could be made. The SPEAKER said it was usual to give notice with respect to Bills that were opposed that they would be taken at twelve o'clock—(Hear, hear)—and be believed it had been stated by the Hon. Gentleman the Under-Secretary (Mr. Fox. Maule), that be had given notice to the Clerk at the table,' that the Bill to which - the lion. and Gallant Member had alluded to, would be brought on at twelve o'clock. Lord G. SOMERSET was glad the Speaker had stated what the rule was, and he thought it would only be showing a little Parliamentary courtesy, if the Government had declined proceeding with that Bill yesterday, as it was clear, from what was said by the Hon. Member for Fins , bury, there had been some mistake.—( Hear, hear.) The Clerks were always very accurate, and he could not suppose there had been any negligence on their part. The Bill in question, to many of the clauses of which it was known there would be great opposition, was actually brought on before the other Bills fixed for twelve o'clock.—( Hear.) Mr. HUME also complained of the course that had been adopted by the Government with respect to the Me tropolis Police Courts' Bill, because he had given distinct notice he should oppose it. Another complaint he had to make against the Government was for bringing up the Re port of the Committee of Supply at twelve o'clock, and lie trusted the House would not sanction a Report of that nature being brought up at any future morning sittings. Mr. O'CONNELL regretted that Report had been brought up yesterday, because there was an item in it relat ing to the unfortunate Poles, and he had wished to have stated the grievous manner in which many of those unfortunate men were treated by the Paymaster. The pay of one poor fellow who was insane had been stopped on no other ground than that he was unable to sign his name. His friends could not obtain his admission into any Lunatic Asylum because he was not destitute, being in the receipt as it was supposed of support from the Government. Mr. BARING had seen enough of these parties to say that the House ought to be very careful before they gave credence to all the statements they might hear from them. —( Hear, hear, hear.) But if the Hon. and Learned Gen tleman would give him the name of the party, lie would in quire into it. - Mr. O'CONNELL handed to the Hon. Gentleman the documents that had been presented to him. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, with respect to the subject that had been mentioned, thought it right to state that there was one Pole who had been in the receipt of a cer tain allowance from the Government, who had taken, and still continued to take, a very active part in all the Chartist meetings, was a contributor to the Charter newspaper, and was taking a part in instigating the people to insur rection against the authorities.---( Hear.) When that was brought to his notice he wrote to the Treasury desiring that that person's name rnighl:be struck off—(Hear, hear) and he hoped that all the respectable Poles in this country would take care to discourage and disavow con duct so unbecoming their character.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. O'CONNELL believed the Noble Lord alluded to a person of the name of Benowski, and be was war ranted in stating that that person met with the universal reprobation of the Poles..(Hear, hear.) Ho was be lieved to be actuated by mercenary motives and attached to another Government. THE REGALIA IN THE TOWER. Mr. HUME wished to know whether any arrangement was likely to he made to enable the public to see the Re galia in the Tower free of expense. The admission of Gd. to the Tower was producing to the Governor 3,0001. a• year. He hoped that for that Gd. the public might have the privilege of seeing the Regalia also ? Mr. F. BARING said the question was at present under the consideration of the Treasury. In answer to a question by Lord G. SOMERSET, Lord JOHN RUSSELL said the House would meet at three o'clock to-morrow. SLAVERY IN INDIA. Mr. EWART wished to know what steps had been taken with regard to slavery in the East Indies; and also whether there was any foundation for the belief that the Portuguese were establishing a slave trade in the East as well as in the West? Sir J. HOB HO USE said there was a commission now sitting in India on the subject of slavery, and when their labours were completed the reports would be sent to Eng land. As to the Portuguese slave trade, the Governmcia of India was doing all that could be done to prevent it, but the subject was an extremely difficult one. LOWER CANADA GOVERNMENT BILL. On the motion of Lord JOHN RUSSELL the Order of the Day was read for considering the Lord's amendments to the Lower Canada Government Bill. Sir C. GREY wished the Under Secretary for the Colonies to state the nature of the amendments which had been made. He had already stated that his objection to the clause regarding taxation was that it seemed to carry the power of making taxes for local purposes rather furtli,r than had been recommended by the Government in Canada, who had specified first some particular purposes, and added, " for other local improvements." Now, ac.. cording to the known rule of law, the latter general terms were restricted by the first named local purposes, conse quently, it would have been a restriction to such purposes as the county rates were applicable to in England. Therefore, by leaving out the specif i ed purposes, and putting in the wor d s local improvements generally," it appeared to him that the power was rendered more extensive than had been recom mended by the Government of Canada ; or than it was desirable to establish. He wished it to be understood that by refraining from di v idi ng t h e House against the provision, he should not be precluded hereafter—whenever it was seen what these purposes were for which the taxes were imposed—from giving any apposition he might think pro- "aur - cutu - L-rvau. r are CM.
