THE BEST APERIENT AND ANTIBILIOUS MEDICINE FOR GENERAL USE IS FRAMPTON"S PILL OF HEALTH which effectually relieves the stomach and bowels by gentle relaxa tion, without griping or prostration of strength. They remove head-ache, sickness, dizziness, pains in the chest, &c., are highly gratetbl to the stomach, promote digestion, create appetite, relieve languor and depression of spirits ; while to those of a full habit, and free livers, who are continually suffering from drowsiness, heaviness, and singing in the head and ears, they offer advantages that will not fail to be appreciated. This Medicine has for many years received the approval of the most respectable classes of society, and in confirmation of its effi cacy, the following letter has been kindly forwarded to Mr. Prout, with permission to publish it, and, if requisite, to refer any respect able person to its author : To " Ileavitree, Exeter, April 24, 1844. " I feel pleasure in being able to bear my strong and unso licited testimony to the excellence of your " Frampton's Pill of Health," which I consider a most safe, efficacious, and very superior general medicine. The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having recourse to other medicines for a long period of years ; she has recommended them extensively, and in one instance in which she induced a person to adopt them, and supplied the first box herself, they Dave proved of extraordinary efficacy. I think_ that perhaps there is scarcely any other of the many patent medicines before the public of equal value as a " friend in need"—certainly none possessed of superior claims.

HOME ClRCUlT.—Maidstone, March 12. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Lord Chief Justice DENMAN and a Common Jury.) RUTLEY U. THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a carrier, at Dover, to recover from the South-Eastern Railway Company the value of certain perishable goods, consist ing of fish and meat, and which he alleged were de stroyed by reason of their illegally refusing to allow him to send them upon the railway after the tolls and rates paid by the Act of Parliament had been duly paid. There were a great many counts in the plaintiff's de claration, of which the above is the substance. The Company had put s. , veral pleas upon the record, alleging that the rates and tolls had not been paid—that money was due from the plaintiff to the Company, and also that the waggon containing the goods in question was not loaded in the form and manner required by the Act Parliament, The circumstances under which the action was brought were these. The plaintiff had, for a consider able time followed the occupation of a carrier eery ex tensively between Dover, London, and the intermediate places upon the route, but upon the establishment of the railway he was, of course, compelled to give up his old system of business, a nd f or some time he, in com mon with other carriers, conveyed his goods by the rail way. Various regulations were at different times made by the Company with reference to the carriers upon the line, and one of them was, that the payments should be made by what was called " the trip," either from Lon don to Dover, or vice versa, and the plan was, that the gross highest amount of tonnage, eitLer way, should be paid for, and on the return no charge should be made by the Company. It appeared to be the custom of the Company to allow the carriers a week's credit, at the end of which time the accounts were made up, and the gross amount carried each way accurately ascer"ained, but in consequence of some disagreement between the plaintiff and the Company, relative to a sum of 1001, which they alleged he owed, and which he said was due from other parties whose goods he had conveyed, the Company refused to give him the usual week's credit, and insisted that he should pay in advance for everything they carried for him, undertaking to return him, at the end of the week, any balance that might be in his favour through the arrange ment above alluded to. This state of things went on for a short time ; but on the 1 lth of August, in last year, the plaintiff having sent his goods, as usual, from London, paid for a quantity of three tons, at the Bricklayers' Arms, or some of the other stations on the line, and on his sending back a smaller quan tity, some portion of which consisted of perish able articles, such as fish, &c., on the same trip, the railway authorities at the Folkstone station refused to allow them to be carried on, unless he paid an additional amount. To this objection was made; but an offer was given to deposit a sum of money, with a view to try the question, - if the clerk would allow the goods to be for warded to London ; but he refused, and the truck con taining the property was detached from the engine and left behind; the result b e ing, th a t th e w h o l e o f its con tents were destroyed. Sergeant SHEE, on behalf of the Company, took seve ral legal objecticns to the form of the di claration, refer ring to the different Railway Acts in support of his ar gument ; but the Court over-ruled them. The Learned SERGEANT then proceeded to address the jury, and said that in opening this case his Learned Friends had designated the defendants as a set of spe culators. He was ready to :admit that they were specu lators, but at the same time he must say that the specu lation which they had carried out was one of greater benefit to the community than any that had ever been brought forward by any other speculators in the history of this country. It was true that they did expect some benefit from their speculation, and obtain those rights and privileges to which they were entitled, and he con tended that they had done no more in this case than the Act of Parliament under which the railway was esta blished, entitled the proprietors to do. He then pro ceeded to comment upon the circumstances of the case, and submitted to the jury that there was no ground for the present action. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE briefly addressed the jury, and expressed his opinion, that upon the form of the de claration in the present action the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict, and that the Company having received the rates of toll for the larger quantity upon the trip down, had no right to make a further demand upon the journey back to London. He therefore directed the jury to find for the plaintiff. The fury returned a verdict accordingly. Damages, 45/. Is. Bd. RUTLEY V. THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action brought by the same plaintiff, to recover the value cf certain goods that were alleged to have been destroyed through the negligence of the ser vants of the Company. It appeared that on the 19th September, last year, the plain tiff sent some linen goods by the railway to Dover, and while passing through Shakspeare's Tunnel, some sparks from the engine got inside the truck, and sat the bale containing the property in question on fire. The defence was that the goods:were not properly and securely packed by the plaintiff, and it was admitted by one of his witnesses that there were a number of holes in the oi► cloth placed over the truck, and this, it was alleged, was the cause of the mischief. The jury found for the plaintiff —Damages, IN. OXFORD ClRCUlT:—Worcester, March 9. Their Lordships having visited the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim Palace on Saturday afternoon, arrived here yes terday, and attended Divine service in the cathedral. The calendar contains the names of fifty-three prisoners, no less than ten of whom are charged with the crime of mur der, and eleven with that of housebreaking. There are twelve robberies from the person, one case of sheep-stealing, one of stabbing, and one of forgery of an order for payment. The remainder consist of larcenies of small articles. The Croome case, which imputes to eleven poach e r s th e crime of murder on Lord Coventry's estate, is one of para mount interest, and its result is looked forward to with much anxiety. (Before the LORD CHIEF BARON.) March 10. The Courts opened for business this morning —the Chief Baron presiding in the Crown Court, and Mr. Baron Platt at Nisi Prius. In his charge to the grand jury, the Learned Judge intimated, with reference to the case at Croome, that, if the evidence satisfied the jury that all the prisoners we n t out with the common design of resisting with violen ce th e opposition of the keepers to their intention of killing game, and death ensued in a struggle consequent upon such agreement, the offence would be clearly that of murder against all. BURGLARY. —John Lloyd and William Clarke were charged with breaking into the house of Mrs. Sarah Davies, and steal ing therein sundry articles of clothing and towels. The house is situate at the hamlet of Lower Milton, in this county, and the robbery was committed on the night of the 30th of Ja nuary last. Mary Ann Teague, servant to the prosecutrix, deposed to having been alarmed on the night in question by the barking of the house-dog. She, with her fellow-servant, Mary Jeffs, ran to the door, where they saw two men, named Cook and Bennett, a policeman and a constable. In conse quence of the statement of the two women, they went into the housl and made an examination ; the result of which was, that two windows were found broken open, and the remains of a fire burning upon the floor of the back kitchen, among which were discovered fragments of aprons and towels, after wards identified as the property of Mrs. Davies, and of her two servants. Upon following up the search the prisoner Clarke was seized in the yard, where he had attempted to conceal himself behind a pump. A footmark appeared clearly impressed on the semi-frozen snow near one of the windows. A boot of Clarke's was compared with this, but as it did not correspond, further inquiries were instituted. John Lloyd, having been seen on the night of the 30th, drinking in the prisoner's company, was taken into custody on suspi cion, and his boot being removed and placed by the side of the impression alluded to, answered to it in every par ticular. The jury convicted both the prisoners. Sentence deferred. The business in both the Courts has proceeded but slowly to-day. and the Assizes are expected to be of unusually long duration. March 11. THE CROOAIE MURDER CASE. This morning the bill of indictment was preferred against the eleven men, named Joseph Turley, Francis Dmgley, lVil liam Bromfield, George Brant, Joseph Tandy, Samuel Turrey, John C(x)11c, and William Cosnett, sc., charged upon the coroner's warrant, and upon the magistrateS' commitment, with the wilful murder of Thomas Staite, the gamekeeper employed on the infant Earl of Coventry's estates at Croome, on the night of the 19th December last, under circumstances already detailed in the columns of this paper. The grand jury, after a short deliberation, returned into Court with true bills against the whole of the prisoners, amidst the breathless silence of the Court. _ An application was then made by the Counsel on both sides fur the appointment of a time for the trial, and it was at length arranged that it should be taken some time to-mor row. The trial will last a long time, on account of the num ber of witnesses to be examined. NORFOLK CI R CU IT.—Aylesbui y. Al arch 10. This circuit commenced this morning, the commission for the county of Bucks being opened at 10 o'clock by the Learned Judges of assize, who afterwards attended Divine service. The grand jury was charged at 1 o'clock by Mr. Baron Parke, and as soon as the bills were found they were dis tributed betwen the Learned Baron and Mr. Justice Patte son, the civil business, which is not expected to be very heavy, being postponed till to-morrow. The calendar pre sents a long array of crime, there being no fewer than 82 prisoners, whose offences may thus be catalogued :—Murder, 2 ; arson, 1 ; burglary and housebreaking, I l ; highway robbery, 1 ; violence to the person, 2 ; larcenies and misde meanours, 40. It therefore appears that there is not in the quality of the offences a very serious calendar, if we except the two cases of murder, one of which is that of John Tawell (which is fixed for Wedneday, for the convenience of Mr. Kelly, who is specially retained for the prisoner), and the other a case of infanticide, a charge which generally subsides into a misdemeanour. The following cases were tried to-day. (Before Mr. Baron PARKE.) • ARSON.—Peter Wolfinger, aged 10, was indicted for feloniously setting tire to a haulm stack, the property of Francis Stephenson, of Ilanslope, on the 13th of September last. Mr. Wells conducted the case for the prosecution. The prisoner was not defended. This case was one of a most simple character, and only ' deserves notice from the fact that a motive was established fur the perpetration of the offence. It appears that the prosecutor lives about a quarter of a mile from his stack yard, near to which stand the cottages of two men, who, with their families have been constantly in his service. Of one of these, the prisoner, an urchin scarcely able to see over the dock, was the son, and, though a child in years he would seem to have been a man in mischief, for, in the course of the last harvest, he was detected in the act of stealing one of the prosecutor's sheaves of wheat from an adjoining field. On that occasion, Mr. Stephenson, with a spirit which reflects credit on him, preferred to appeal to the justice of the p.xter famalias rather than to that of the country, and, by the consent of the boy's parents, he was whipped. This circum stance took place in the middle or end of August, and must alone have prompted the little culprit to fire his master's property, for, on the 13th of September, he was seen with a box of lucifers in his hand, which he was trying against the wall, as ho went along towards the stackyard where the haulm rick stood, and just ten minutes before the flames were seen he was observed to get over a stile leading to the yard by a labourer who had been thatching one of the stacks, and spoke most positively to their being all quite safe when he left the spot. These facts coming to the knowledge of the constable, the boy was taken into custody, when he quietly confessed the deed, but added that he had "only lighted a match and thrown it on to the stack, without any intention to set it on fire." Mr. Baron PARKE having summed up the case to the jury, they found the prisoner Guilty, and he was forthwith sen tenced to transportation for 15 years. (Before Mr. Justice PArrusoic.) PHEASANT STEALING.—DanieI, David, and John Grange, and Daniel Ford, all agricultural youths of 19, or there abouts, were indicted for stealing eleven tame pheasants, on the 30th of January last, the property of Col. Reid of Bul strode-park, in this county. Mr. Dasent was counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Wells for the prisoners. From the evidence of the gallant prosecutor's keeper and gardener, it appeared that the subjects of this charge had been for some time past preserved in an ornamental aviary adjoining his mansion, where, being kept under lock and key, they were the admiration of all the family and visitors at the park. Tame pheasants, however, would seem to be quite as pro fitable in the market as those which perch on the tree and are ferce natura, for on the morning of the 31st of January the cage was found broken open, and the birds, if not flown, at any rate carried away ; the latter supposition being much strengthened by the discovery of the footsteps of four men leading across the snow on the lawn to the gravel surround ing the aviary. Information being given to the police force, the superintendent at once started for Uxbridge, about six miles off, where he, not unwisely, imagined that the birds and thieves had all flown, as the former would find a ready market. Nor was he mistaken, for at twelve o'clock he found all the prisoners and one Wood drinking together at the Feathers, the landlord of which hostelrie soon produced to him eight out of the eleven birds, which had been depo sited by one of the party in the "private parlour," while the others negotiated the sale of their booty, three of which had been already got rid of elsewhere. Upon confronting the prisoners with Wood, the prisoners one and all exculpated the latter from any participation in the job, and he now formed a material witness against them, for, according to his account, he met them all heavily laden at eight o'clock in the morning, on the way to Uxbridge, about four miles from Bulstrode Park. Being acquainted, a promiscuous conversa tion sprung up between them, in the course of which they plainly said they had got eleven live pheasants in their pockets, but added that they had secured them by a new method of " smoking them while roosting on the trees," the result of which was they "fell like dead into their arms." After this the witness and the men parted, but in about an hour he fell in again with them at the Feathers, when he attempted to sell the birds for them. This being the case for the prosecution, and four of the birds being clearly iden tified by the keeper and gardener, Mr. Justice PArrEsox proceeded to sum up the case to the jury, telling them that this was not a poaching case, but a pure felony, there being no doubt whatever but that birds so reclaimed from a state of nature were proper subjects of felony. The jury having found all the prisoners Guilty, they were severally sentenced to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour. WESTERN ClRCUlT.—Salisbury, March 10. (Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE. ) Praxell Alford Hinwood was indicted for feloniously send ing a letter to Thomas Slade Whiting, threatening to burn and destroy his stacks of corn. Mr. Meiewether conducted the prosecution. It appeared that the prosecutor is a farmer at Codford, and one of the guardians of the poor. On the 7th of December he received a letter by the post. Within the letter was a small piece of brown paper, burnt at one end like a match The prisoner had been an inmate of the union. She had told a person that she would send a threatening letter to Mr. Whiting, because he had only allowed her 6d. a day. She had been in prison for breaking windows at the Warminster Union. When she came out of prison she returned to the union, and, after she had been there a day or two she asked another pauper for a sheet of writing paper, and she then wrote a letter, which she said was to one of the guardians of her parish. She cut a piece of brown paper in the shape of a match, and burnt it at one end, and put it in the letter, and sealed it, making an impression on the wax with the thimble of another pauper, and gave it to one of them to take to the post. Tile following is a copy of the letter:— " Mr. Thomas Slade Whiting,_l have sent you these few lines Just to give you Warning, that before this month is over you shall have your Farm and property destroyed by fire; what corn you intend sending to market send as quick as you can, for you shall not send any more. This is the articles I use, and I shall use them. But if you do not want it in a Blaze you must not let me come into your parish. But you shall suffer for it. And I will do it. Let me be wherever I may be for I will do it and your police nor any other shall stop me." This letter was directed to " Mr. Thomas Slade Whiting, Codford, St. Peter's, Wilts." - The prisoner, when called upon for her defence, said to th e prosecutor, "As you have sworn falsely against me, you may depend upon it if ever I have my liberty again, I'll set your property on fire: that you may depend on." The gaoler—Be quiet. Prisoner—l shall not be quiet; shall speak the sentiments of my mind. Tue jury found the prisoner Guilty. The prisoner has been before tried, two years since, for threatening to kill and murder the master of the workhouse. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE sentenced theprisoner to ten years' transportation. The prisoner said, "Thank you,,my Lord, and I hope you'll sit there till I come back." George Goodfetow, James Andrews, John Wyatt, alias Loveless, William Palmer, Thomas Sanger, James Read, alias Viney, George Scammell, and Henry Andrews, were in dicted for unlawfully being together on the 25th of January last, in the night, in an inclosed land, called Toffant, or Toffont, or Tovont-wood, in the possession Of the Earl of Pembroke, armed with guns and other offensive weapons, for the purpose of taking or destroying game. The prisoners, upon being placed at the bar, presented a very sad spectacle. Some of them had their heads bound up; others had their arms in slings; and most of them ar peared to have been very severely wounded. Mr. Merewethcr conducted the case for the prosecution, ' and Mr. Hodges defended the prisoners. Mr. MEREWETHER, in opening the case for the prosecu tion, stated, the t the prisoners were indicted under the sta tute the 9th George 11%, cap. 69, section 9, which enacted that.if any persons, to the uumber of three or more together, should by night unlawfully enter or be in any inclosed land armed with guns or other offensive weapons for the purpose of taking or destroying game, they should be guilty of a misdemeanour. The Earl of Pembroke was the owner of Toffant-wood, but he had given Mr. Martin permission to shoot there. The game was preserved tolno inordinate ex tent, and no battue shooting was carried on there. Although they were sorry to see the prisoners suffering much from the violence which afterwards ensued, yet he believed that when this enterprise was first determined on, the parties had not intended that it should be attended with any violence; but, on that very account, it was very important that this prose cution should be instituted, because it was desirable that publicity should be given to proceedings of this kind, that persons might know, before they entered upon such a scheme, that consequences might ensue which might place them in the most painful position. The Learned Counsel then gave a detail of what had taken place on the night in question, which will appear in the following short extract from the evidence : James Barrett, the elder—l live at Compton Chamber lain, and am gamekeeper to Mr. Martin. I know Totrant wood, which is the property of Lord Pembroke. It is within my beat. On the night of the 25th of January, about nine o'clock, I went ont on my duty, accompanied by my two sons, and Lambert and Raymond. About three in the morn ing I heard the report of a gun. We went in the direction of the sound, and saw a man coming towards us. It was a moonlight morning. The man was looking up in the trees, as if far game. He walked up close to me. I put up my hand and took him by the collar of the jacket. I saw his face, and said, "Master Goodfellow, is that you ?" I had known him for years. I told my , son James to take the gun from him, that no mischief might be done. There was a struggle about the gun, and Goodfellow called. " Fall in, fall in." My son got the gun, and threw it away. We heard the report of ano ther gun, and then nine or ten men came up, having guns or bludgeons. They held them up on end. One said, "D— -your eyes, stand I" Then a fight began. I had a stick and hanger. When I laid hold of Goodfellow I stuck my hanger in the ground, to prevent mischief. The other party struck the first blow. The fight continued for half an hour. I saw James Andrews, Henry Andrews, John Wyatt, and Good fellow. They had sticks and guns. We had no firearms. We were overpowered, and obliged to decamp. Cross-examined—We always preserve the game there. My sons and myself are regular keepers in the employment of Mr. Martin. We had only two hangers with us. I don't know how many cuts I inflicted. We had on a kind of hel mets made of straw to protect our heads. They are called Cranbourne• chase hats. When the fight began we let Good fellow go. There was no attempt by the poachers to dis charge their guns during the fight. By the JUDGE—I was confined to my bed for a fortnight afterwards. James Barrett, jun.—l am son of the last witness, and was with him that night. George Goodfellow came up to us, and my father took him by the collar. I tried to get the gun from him. He endeavoured to get the cock of the gun up. I beard it snap twice. I succeeded in getting it from him. He called out " Fall in, fall in !" I then saw nine or ten other men come up as fast a 3 they could run. They lifted up th' guns and sticks which they had, and struck us on our heads with them. I can speak to James Andrews, Henry Andrews, William Palmer, and George Scammell. I knew them well. This is the gun I took from Goodfellow. It was loaded and had on a cap. The next morning I went to the spot, and found three bludgeons and the broken stock of a gun. Cross-examined—The moon shone bright at that time. I knew Goodfellow before my father took him by the collar. I never said to Henry Turner that I fancied some of them must have thought of their latter end. Sometimes there were three of them to one of us. If I had not made use of my hanger as much as I could I should have died upon the spot. Charles Barrett—l was with my father that night. I can William Raymond—l come from the infirmary. I wa3 with the gamekeepers that night. Henry Andrews was there. (This witness had his arm broken, and was otherwise dreadfully beaten.) Mr. Martin—l have Lord Pembroke's permission to shoot in Toffant-wood. It is not my land. This was the case for the prosecution. • Several respectable farmers and other persons, and parti cularly the rector of the parish, spoke very highly as to the character of all, or some of the prisoners : they were the best labourers in the parish, and had never before - bean known as poachers. The jury found the prisoners Guilty, and they were sen tenced to be imprisoned for 12 months, with hard labour. SPI RIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—The extent to which Sir Robert Peel intends to propose an addition to the Maynooth grant has not yetbeen announced. It seems to be admitted, on all hands, that the increase will be considerale. The present amount voted an nually by Parliament, and w4ich has continued the same for the last 50 years, is 8,0001. If the statements which make the addition to that vote 20,000/.—thus raising the sum to 28,0001. —be correct, the increased power which will be thus given to the Roman Catholics, of propagating their doctrines, will be considerably increased. It is also reported that the buildings of the College are to be placed under the charge of the Board of Public Works, and are to be repaired and kept up at the public charge. From what fell from Sir Robert Peel on this subject in the House of Commons, it is under stood that no interference with, or inspe c ti on o f, the internal management of the seminary, is to be required on the part of Government. All is to be left, as it now is, under the control and direction of the Roman Catholic hierarchy. The grant, thus largely increased, is to be fettered with no condition. What is freely given is to be as freely received. However willing Sir Robert Peel maybe to throw his former pledges and promises overboard, upon the plea that State necessity calls for the sacrifice at his hands, we yet doubt whether he has not, on this occasion, reckoned without his host. That his conveniently-pliable majority in the House of Commons would do his bidding in this, or any other deviation from, or contradic tion of, their former sayings or doings, their sub serviency leaves no room for doubt. But in this case there are difficulties out of doors. Principles of opposi tion, from different points of the political and religions hemisphere, are preparing to unite, as in one common centre, against this proposed application of the national re venue to give extension and effect to Popish doctrines. A combined opposition to the scheme will thus be raised, more formidable than has been provoked by any previous measure which the present Ministry has ventured to pro pound. This scheme forms no part of what is termed " justice to Ireland." A perfect equality in all civil privileges with their Protestant fellow-countrymen is the indefeasible right of the Roman Catholics of Ireland. Per feet confidence should be reposed in their loyalty by the Go vernment, and strict impartiality in the distribution of official patronage should be exhibited toward them by the Ad ministration. The secular education of the children .of their poor should be aided by the State, without interference with religious teaching, which should be left exclusively to their own clergy. Every means within the power of the Legislature and the functions of Government, should be employed to elevate the condition, and thus inspire , the confidence, of the people. The Roman Catholics of Ire land have a right to these, and to all other civil privileges and inimunities. But a broad line of distinction exists be tween civil rights and State endowmenti.' This distinction will be insisted upon in the forthcoming controversy ; and we cannot see how Sir Robert Peel will be able to meet the objections, and turn aside the battle which will be fought ' upon its ground. The education of the young men who are edu cated at the College of Maynooth is emphatically and exclu sively religious. They are there trained for the priesthood oftho Roman Catholic Church. Its doctrines are there instilled into their minds ; the " bodily worship" enjoined by the Romish ritual is there daily and hourly practised. They thus become familiarised by habit with its ceremonies and observances. At the appointed time they come forth; and receive power and authority from the Bishop to preach, teach, and enjoin the same things upon others. In proposing to call upon the Protestant people of England to pay for educating the Roman Catholic priests of Ireland, we think Sir Robert Peel has ventured on an expe-, riment which will fail. This proposal is neither mere nor less than to endow—out of the taxation of the country, principally paid by English Protestants—a Propaganda Col lege for the growth and spread of doctrines which they believe to be impregnated with errors of awful tendency. Transubstantian, papal infallibility, the worship of the Virgin and the saints, the use of images, penance, purgatory, priestly absolution, baptismal regeneration, celibacy, monkery, , and all the other dogmas against which the Reformers pro tested, many of them even to martyrdom, are, in the excess of Sir Robert Peel's new-born love for Popery, to be cultivatd and cherished by means of a large yearly Parliamentary grant to Maynooth. Will the Protestant spirit which yet lives and breathes in the Protestant Establishment of the country, and among the numerous and enlightened bodies of dissidents from her communion, consent to this? We think it will not. The Dissenters from the Established Church will also urge an objection, peculiar to themselves, against this proposed formidably large endowment to Maynooth. Ob jecting, as they do, to all State endowments of religion, they will oppose this extension of the principle to a Church to whose doctrines and ceremonies they, as Protestants, espe cially object. The Wesleyans have steadily resisted the extension of civil privileges to Roman Catholics, lest they should employ those acquired powers to th e in jury of Protestants. This powerful and firmly-com pacted body are, we understand, preparing to meet the scheme, on its announcement, with the deter mined and effective opposition which their well-adapted connexional machinery can readily and expeditiously combine and enforce. A considerable and influential party in the Church of England will join in this demonstration. The stern and jealous Protestantism of Scotland will take the alarm. An apprehension, that Popery will derive increased power from enlarged means supplied by the State, will stimu late all classes of Protestants to resist the Government scheme, while a perception that for questionable purpeses, such as this, the income-tax is to be retained, will increase the unpopularity of the Ministry, and will constitute a for midable item in the accouut which it will have to settle with the country when the day of reckoning comes. STANDARD.—The long debate upon the conduct of the Governor of New Zealand last night was subject to this somewhat important objection, that nobody knew distinctly what the conduct of the Governor has been ; still less . was any one in possession of the reasons for his mea sures, as far as these measures could be guessed at. Mr. C. Buller, Mr. Aglionby, &c., however, thought that a distinct and sure knowledge of the facts is not necessary to the discussion of a system of Govern. meat, and so they occupied the attention of the House. Now here let us point to a distinction, the neglect of which may obscure the absurdity of this mode of proceeding. It is true that when any important event has occurred, as the loss of a colony, or even a formidable in surrection in a colony, or the loss of a ship of war, or the like, the Parliament or the Executive, as the case may be, is entitled to call for an explanation; and if the explanation is not at hand, to proceed to judgment, without delay. And why is this? Becauee in such cases as are supposed, there is a fait accompli of sufficient magnitude to interest the country, and a fact which is certain and irrevocable, constituting what our law calls a corpus de &H. But the case is very different where the alleged offence or injury is cumulative, and to be deduced from a long series of facts, in themselves unimportant, innocent, or indifferent. To put a man upon trial, or to call for judgment upon him, without first clearly establishing the whole chain of facts upon which you found your charge, is plainly—first, to gratuitously make a crime that may have no real existence, and then impute it. In the case of a man on the spot thus accused, there would be good ground for complain ing of injustice ; but the thing is perfectly monstrous when the man is at the antipodes. However, Captain Fitzroy found able and efficient defenders; and the waste of so much breath, and the loss of so much time, have been the worst eflect of Messrs. Buller and Aglionby's proceedings. These gentlemen have lost nothing in any one's estimation for can dour and generosity—for a reason. MONEY MARKETand CITY NEWS. CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.

Three volumes, with numerous illustrations.—lt would be impossible to enumerate the varied and valu able information imparted by these volumes. The mere mention of the plan on which the work is constructed will alone suffice to give an idea of its scope and useful. ness. The bazaars and markets are divided into sections, and each, with its wares, its occupants, its buyers and sellers, its regulations. is considered separately and in detail. This plan naturally leads to the questions of trade, of indigenous produce, of corporate rules, of ma ' nufactures, of social manners, and, in short, of all mat ters relating to the life of the commercial portion of the people. Nor are the higher ranks overlooked ; the Sultan, the ladies of the seraglio, the officers of State, the grandees, are all faithfully described in their do. mestic circles, and in their habits of daily existence. A. three years' residence, a perfect knowledge of the Turk ish language, a daily intercourse with all classes of the people, an access to sources of autheat;c and unadul terated information, an earnest and painstaking zeal to elicit the truth in all his statements and alleged facts— these ate the advantages which Mr. White has enjoyed in the performance of his taik.
