FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OP THIS DAY. b 941 GLOBE.—It is a curious reflection—but those who perpend it may , find it true—that the greatest dancer from Toryism is—not Toryism —but mawkish and morbid. Liberalism. What has this Ministry been driving at, ever eine° it came in ? What but—like that actor, who had not got the true pig under his cloak—to squeak more naturally piggish, than even the true' pig itself ? What but to catch up every sucked and thrown away Liberal orange, and suck it over again ? __What but to figure as the true Amphitryon, by dint eof a ten times • , cooked-up banquet --compensate ing, by its trashy variety, for its want of the solid substance of sound policy ! The foreign and commercial policy atiche by this Government especially illustrate its. claptrap . spirit. Peace with all the world and his wife ; and a fig for our naval forces! Free trade through all the letters of the alphabet—and a fig for cheap bread, or commercial reci procity ! Now we may be wrong, but we are strongly persuaded that this dew-in-borrowed-feathers policy is of all policy the very worst. We prefer infinitely the Op ; position of 1838 to the Ministry of 1844. In striking the chord of national sensitiveness to defence and honour, they struck the right chord. In placing protective policy on the ground of the interest of our workpeople, they -placed it upon the right ground. So far as deli-. ciency of force t xisted, the Opposition was useful in provoking its increase. So far as protection was given to chsses producing other things than the ne cessaries of life—so far—as against rivals, refusing reciprocity—it was rightly given. The policy of de fence, and the principle of protection, within such limits, Were not things to be whistled down the wind,—not things to be ceded to vague Liberal cem- . mon-places, whether Whig or Tory. National defence: —plenty, and protection, for national labour—open com merce to supply deficient' necessaries—commerce open or chised, as foreigners thought proper, in all articles of which, not the raw material, but the labour on that raw Material, formed the main value.. These are the pOints on which a . Conservative Government might' have ' preserved its character beneficially. Bectuiste importation, of raw produce decides the ques tion of plenty for all. Importation, or non-importa tionsof finished goods decides, in many cases, the d;s tribution of that plentye-the question whether the la bour •of the country shall enjoy it less or' more. It is quite idle to deny that indiscriminate free trade in manufacturee, with nations which will not open their markets reciprocally, exposes the labouring chieses of the country conceding it to all the inconveniences of excessive foreign production of particular articles (where such arti cles happen to be also produced by the native labotirers), . without the counterbalancing advantage of admission to these foreign markets. This is a gratuitous hardship inflicted on native labour—or at least the only advan tage derived from it is the greater cheapness of certain non-necessaries—a greater cheapness, which is, no a tional .object to be placed in comparison with the more liberal distribution of the means of comfort to labourers ;at home.. Such is our creed in the_ matter Of coin- Tereial reciprocity. The Opposition of 1838 professed to. uphold protection for the sake of labour. The - Ministry of, 1844 . made one Of its first acts the gratuitous breakkm down of that protection—the admission, not of the Main commodities of which. greater abundance ties necessary-ebut of those countless" minutiae, admis sion of which affects the distribution of• comforts among et our own labouring classes—commodities which from its all foreigners were loading with restrictions-- ail foreigners except the Brazilians—and with them these llinieters have succeeded in picking a quarrel since! This .commercial policy of Ministers comes under review curiously, in with their foreign policy in the course of discussion last night. Sir Robert Peel said—". I wish the Right lion. Gentleman would bear in mind die feelings of this country if the French Govern ' merit had proposed -a Select Committee of the Chambers to* inquire- into. - the mode in which we got possession of Hong-Kong, and how far it was consistent with the interests of France that we should extend our posses sions in the Chinese seas. I wonder what the Right Hota Gentleman would have thought of such -a motion." A British Minister might have remembered • that lhitain would rejoice to meet such inquiry ; and to place her conduct in proud contrast to that of any other con quering Power. For whom have we conquered Chinese exclusiveness ? For -the whole world ! FOr whose interest is- it, that • our Chinese position (coupled with . our Chinese - policy) should be maintained ? The • interest • -of • • -the whole peaceful and ethn mereial - world ! • Now turn to French condttet. Mr. Sheil asks (and asks of those whom ParliaMent has a right to ask). whether our neighbours are, or are riot, allowed to proceed in Africa in a manner rnilitatlng with our legitimate and commercial interest ? What is the first - fait accompli, which at once obtrudes • itself in answer b the question ?.. Why, the. _feet that duties, amounting to prohibition, have been posed on our ships and manufactures at all the ports seized in Africa by the French. How many more ports is she to be allowed to seize, with the effect of farther exemplifying the same entente cordiale with our com merce ? We are far, however, from thinking the immediate commercial question the main question concerned. The question is, have we men at the helm who have any idea of acting, when England ought to act ? Mr. Manes thinks the time has arrived when Christian civilisation must extend itself to Africa. Good .words are ever commendable; and Christian civilisation are very good words.. We may perhaps be doubtful whether France is precisely the centre .of - Christian civilisation ; or whether the conductors of the razzias are precisely its apostles. On the whole, we should like to have the -terms defined ; and as we often talk of assisting that laudable object, we hope we shall so contrive our c>-operation in. th.e Christian civilisation of Africa, a; to take especial . tharg,e of the points bear ing on our Mediterranean commerce and Indian empire! STANDA Rl:).—Lord Beaumont's character, and his conduct in Parliament, entitle him to the respect 'of the public, and fairly claim a _favourable conaideration . for whatever proposition he may make. We must, how ever, confess that - his Lordship's Bill in its pal shape' altogether exhausts this demand upon our candour and our disposition to be pleased.. • In its first ferni • the Bill s would go a considerable way towards the re-establishment of Roman ism in the United Kingdom. The Bill, in feet, purposes to repeal whatever remains of about forty . statutes, i:lcluding pretty nearly all the statutes now in force for the protection of th e P ro t es t an t Chu rc h, - and the Protestant religion, against the aggressions of the Church of Rome, not omitting even the " security statute by which the law of 1829 was accompanied. Such a Bill may no doubt be amended, but it can be amended only by enormous curtailment. Practi cally, Roman Catholics are as free as any class of the Queen's subjects ; and there can be no objection what ever to repeal in form, anti directly, those laws which such practical freedom proves to have been repealed either by desuetude or indirectly, as is the case of pro bably three , fourths of the-statutes recited in Lord Bean monee Bill. Lawyers will tell'us that the theory of the English law, unlike that of the Roman law, allows of no repeal of a law by desuetude ; but .0 e: need not ge further than the Bill before us to shore that, whatever the theory of the law, the practice is to treat obsolete statutes as repealed. Now, ae fir as Lord Beaumont's Bill can be made to re' concile theory anti practice, in this respect it wig be net • merely unolijectionelde but useful, for where there is e multitade of 'awe upon a particular subject,. or. a par ticu'ar class of subjects, the majority of which laves have Leen. suffered to sleep, or to die off front lethargy; there is a perfect certainty that the rest will he infected, and glide into the same • destiny. This, however, is plainly not Lord Beaumont's view.. He wishes to have all the laws protecting the Pro testant rel7gioe and Truteetatit• Church repealed, chiefly - .w;th .the porpteee of getting rid of such a, are still operatiie aria still necessary. The 'amend ments which the Lord Chancellor has undertaken . to • make will, however, we trust, be made in:not iiierely a different, but in en opposite spirit.' The Noble and Learntd Lord, the Chancellor of 1829, can„ for example, he zrarcely expected to' stultify the Goveinritent - of which he was so diatinguishedo Member fifteen vears ago, by proposing;s the repeal of 4 .‘ the security" - Bill. On the other bend, he - may be ex pected to give snore freedom of operation and efAciericy . to that law, by as4sting to remove " thech ad dr alee Ping under whose weight it and some 'other' laiv directed to the came end have, up to the present time, been smothered. We will, however, withhold all ftirther comments until w e shall see the amended Bill. In the meantime we must protest against the assumption of L rd Beaumont; that no Romanist cOnepiracy can exist in our day. What is - the Repeal Association, if not a Romanist conspiracy ? Surely not the lest a Romanist conspiracy because a tew insane or self-Seeking .indivi duals calling themselves Protestants are enrolled among its members ; the very same thing having happened in the case of all the conspiracies against Elizabeth. What is the Ribbon Society but a Romanist conspiracy, when its first obligation is one of fidelity to the Church of Rome ? Lord Beaumont is himself an honourable proof that a Roman Catholic can hold apart from and dis countenance sech conspiracies ; but were there not many such illustrious proofs in the reign of Elizabeth, in which, as his Lordship admits, such conspiracies existed ? Lord Howard of Effingham, w hose name is early made. known to every schoolboy, and gratefully remembered by every nglishman, was, like Lord Beaumont, a Ro manE Catholic, and many Roman Catholics as brave and as loyal, if not as distingushod, as the great Admiral, had their share is the destruction of the Armada ; and yet this was less than twenty years before the Gun powder Plot, Nothing is ever to be inferred of Romanism from Individual instances of virtue, however numerous, in any age. We are always—!f we would arrive at just. ounclusious re7pecting that artful anti versatile sect, worked as it is by a secret power, the only thine unilerm in its system—to take the average of years anti of eritalsete, and thus reasoning, we shall find more Romanist . eonsteracies in the eighteenth and nintce..nth than in the sixteenth end seventeenth centuries. lIIE LONDON GAZETTE DOWNING-STREET, JULY 22, 1844.

LUNACY. • ----- -- - Lord ASHLEY rose . j to move an Address to the. Crowe, praying her Majpst.. to take into her considera tion the Report Of the Metropolitan Commissioners of Lunacy t., the Lord Chancellor. and presented to the House by command of her Majesty. In rising to bring fthe said t h at the report h a d b een so l and its detail s were so extens i ve , t h at i t had been found impossible to bring it under the consi olie;maridnu this til , motion, deration of the House at an earlier period of the-session. The act upin which the commission of lunacy was founded would expire -next year ; and it was, therefore, neces'ary that it should be renewed during Parli amen t. L una tic asylums might three distinct heads— thieo present be etit s c e:s ns i i i d m ere o d f The first class of asylums were what was called single h ous es ; of the patients in these single houses they had no return made. They were precluded by the Statute from any interference -with establishments of that de scription. lie thought this a most unfortunate restric tion. It was giving secret porter and irresponsibility to the relatives of lunatics, and exposing them to temptations almost greater than human nature ought to be "subjected to. There were many patients in three single houses for whom were paid not less than 5001 per annum. This was a temptation to keep such a patient in perpetual confiuement, because a ith the returning health of the sufferer the allowance would be discontinued. So strong was his opinion of the bad effect of this, that if Providence should afflict any near relative of his with insanity, he would consign to an asylum in which there were other patients, • and which Was subjected to official visitation. The only control th ey h ad over t h e s ingle houses WAS this— that it' a patient resided in one more than a twelvemo nt h t h e owner of t h e h ous e w a s compell e d t o communicate th e name o f that patient to the clerk of the whatevercomthission.' B ut f ur t h e mos t part no notice whatever was taken of this law, and it was frequently evaded by re ti.oving the patient, after a residence of eleven months, to some other l o d g i ng. Il e k new the delicacy of the subject, but it was one a ith which the Legislature ought to inter fere. The second class of houses were the county asylums. It appeared, from the returns, that the number ,of lunatics chargeable to parishes in England and Wales, amounted to 16,821, while the existing asylums only protided accommodation to 4,125. There were 9,339 lunatics distributed over the country in workhouses and o t her places. The condition of these asylums was very unequal. Some c.ritained every advantage of science and medical treatment, others were wholly deficient in these points. Ad of them however, had the advantage of not giving anv profit to the superintendents. The roport stated that a large proportion of those asylums were well conducted, but some were quite unfit for their purpose. In England and Wales there were twcitty-one counties without any asylums whatever, public or private. The cost of the patients in les, t he cost per head per annum p +hese a s yl ums var i ed cons id era bly. In the Wakefield Asyl um , w hi c h was esta bli s h e d and conducted on- the most economi ca l rinci was 1111. I n Gloucester Asylum the cost was 3 5 91 In Bedford, the cost per head was 1301. The asylum in Kent cost 64,0001, and that of Hanwell cost 160,0001. Now, looking to the mion-houses, it appeared that the best union-]louses had been constructed for 40,0001., while lun a ti c asy l ums were muc h more expensive, But those asylums svire much too large. The Kent asylum asylums was built t o accommo d ate 300 persons ; others had been constructed to a ccommo d a te a larger number of persons. . Dr. Con o lly stated that n ot more t h an 10 0 person It was imp oss ibl e that suc h a num b e r could he accom modated w i t h a d vantage i n t h ose - scould be mar ag e d with eonveilienee in those asylums. It would appear o tl l s i a u t Is t w r ; e mod ohei er az a t t d e esoi nitl bal3s):3llattitin4sggl'od with u be b g re t a - better ease: ThP third elg4 wag. that of private asylums, Ivbieh re- eeived persons who paid their own expenses. In tho.sl asylums a great number of persons were received w he' paid only 7s. and Bs. a week.- It appeared that the licensed houses were dirty and damp, and that the bedding was disgusting from the running of sores. The Nob e Lord instanced several houses which were in this state. In the House of Industry in Kingsland, near Troubridge, the same slate of things existed. In the union of Red - ruth, in Cornwall, there were forty-one insane persons, and in the union at Birmingham there were no less than seventy-one lunatici, and yet the same syst. in was continued. To correct these evils there was no remedy hitt the multiplication Of - county asylums: They should also enact that all patients should be sent into the asylum within a given time. Unless they did that, other provisions would be useless, as all the repot is showed that the benefits arose from attending to the disease medicinally before it became confirmed. It. was the general opinion of all the medical men that paup e -lunatics were sent into the asylums at so late a period of the disease as to 'prevent, or, ut all events, greatly to im pede, a cure. The registers of the Retreat at York, and of several other asylums proved this fact.. From the re. lister of one of the asyl u m s i n D orse t s hi re , it' a pp eare d taut of six patients that had been admitted at an early period of the disease, in 1837, five had been cured and dismissed within four months and the sixth, although an old woman of 75 was cot.- valescent. At St. Luke's they did not admit patients •Wiiii - litid . been afflicted more than twelve months, and in 1842 the cures averaged 70 per cent., and in 1843. ~they were as six to one. • He - had' written to the younger Dr. Sutherland on ,the subject, and the reply was, that the cures via re all permanent ; for if a patient- relapsed within three Months after his dismissal, he' was re-admitted. not as • a new patient, but as a rel'aPsed one. He verily believed if they went to the-expense of estab lishing asylums throughout the country fir pauper, "lunatics_, -. ; although the outlay at- th e b eg i nn i ng must be considerable, that' the number of cures that would be 'effected in ten years would more thoie compensate for the expenditure. The report of the Commissioners contemplated the erection of, a suffi cient number of lunatic asylums throughout Vie country, and they proposed that until - those asylums should be erected certain portions of workhouses should be licensed for the edmissisn of pauper lunatics. Ile would now call the attention of the House to the' state of Wales with respect - to lunatics. In . 1843 the number of Welsh pauper lunatics was 1,176. Of these 36 were in English county asylums, 41 in licensed houses'in England,9o in union workhouses, and 1,010 living with their friends. Many of. these were in a wretched condition. The Noble Lord here read several ex tracts from various documents to show the wretched state in which many of the pauperluna tics in Wales were placed. It mig in ht c b o e ns s e s oci i i ti lle t tnh h e a ee t there were good asylums- a t B r i sto l and other pl aces , to w hi c h the lunatics might be re moved. But in th ese asy l ums a cure was almost impo.ssi- E of ng t i h i e sh ig ia n n or g a u n a e g e e. am ß o t n a g w m he o r s e t v i r f impossi ble, patients the asylum might be, the whole course of their expe perience established the necessity of instituting and maintaining a frequent visitation. By this, they were able to' bring on them the influence of public opinion, and by notoriety exposing parties to praise or censure. Within the metropolitan districts this vigil ance had sgenerrlly been exercised ; but he _could not say the same of !the provincial districts, tinless an exceptionhuroughasylutn7ult be gene rn ra ad lt e his in dut s y om ha e d few heen si e l f am th e e . fully neglected. It would he needless for him to detain the Howe by enumerating facts that spoke for' them selves ; for .if the parties to whom the . duty of visitation had been entrusted had discharged their office with but common vigilance, the Commis sioners would never have been able to have collected such materials for the re-port that had been laid on the table. He - illustrat(d the good effects of frequent irritation by adduciug the asylum of Dr. Warburton, at Bethnal-green,. which was one of the main subjects of the inquiry of the Committee of 1826. There was an original sin in nil private asylums, because they must ail be - Made to yield a profit -to the keeper. But Dr. - Wur burton had done everything in his power to effest 2imooproofvetinleiepnatstieinnithesas were frequently In 1828 no restrainedh less than chains ar d leglocks; but now out of 582 patients, only five were under restraint, and that of the most moderate and ne cessary description. .to be kept in mind, that it was proved that the wealtilloi classes—that all the respectable men in the town w, cognisant of those transactions, and gave their sanction to them. They were, therefore as guilty as those who received the bribes, and should partake of the punish ment. Although the Commissioners were Lot directly authorised to inquire respscting former elections, yet a great deal crept out in the evidence which proved that a system of general corruption hied long bi.en established in the borough, extending to the whole constituency. He believed, therefore, - that the disfranchisement was inevitable; and as to the question what should be done with the two votes, - he-would say that -the -House of Commons had taken the best course in this Bill-- namely, to disfranchise the borough at once, and to con sider next year what shottd he done with the votes. Ile therefore recommended their Lordships to pass the second reading of the Bill. Lord BROUGHAM highly eulogised the perspictimiti statement of his Noble 'and Learned Friend, who was the head and ornament of his profession. He agreed with his Noble and Learned Friend that this borough should be disfrandhised as an example to others. But the disfranchisement of a' borough was a grave matter; and he strongly objected to their Lordships passiog such a Measure without hearin.g evidence at the bar. His objection did not so strongly apply to the present case, as the evidence was taken not before a Crown Commission, but a Commission appointed by both HoMe . s, and sanctioned by the Crown in the face' of an Act of Parliament. It was grievous to witness the frightful guilt exposed in this inquiry. There could be nothing more degrading or more criminal than to swerve from the discharge of a - public duty for the sake of sordid lucre. These corrupt, venal, and degraded wretches .were guilty of perjury as well as bribery—for, even though the bribery oath was not administered, they were as guilty of perjury as if they had taken the oath, for they would have taken it if required. He thoug!,t the most expedient 'course was to pass the Bill. The Bid was then read a second time, and ordered to be 'committed: COUNTY CORONERS' BILL. • The House then went into Committee on this Bill. The Duke of RICHMOND said he had received some cOrnmunications in answer to the objection which he had made on a former evening to the increased allowance for travelling expenses; but he still adhered to his; opinion, that the coroners should be paid by salaries like the other judges, and not, its it:vvere, by the head, no cording to the number of inquests they held. The Marquis of SALISBURY moved the omission Of the 21st clause, whi c h relates SALISBURY_ the payment of ex penses out of the county rates. The Duke of RICHMOND seconded the motion. After a few words from Lord CAMPBELL and Lord WITA.RNCLIFFE in support of the Bill, - Strangers were ordered to a ithdraw, but no diVision took place. The amendment was negatived, and the Bill passed through Committee. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the second read ing of this Bill. There were a great number of chari table trusts in England which - were entirely exempt from control. There were 13,000 trusts, • which did not amount to more than 5/., 14,000 which amounted to less than 101., and 17,1'00 which amounted to less than 201. It was quite impossible that the Court of Chancery "could exercise any control over thise trusts ; and yet it was monstrous that trusts, amounting to 300,0001., should be without control or protection. To remedy this evil, ha proposed to give the Commissioners the power of ap pointing persons to inquire from time to time into the state of these trusts, to examine their accounts, and the manner of their administration. Another power which he proposed to give was that of appointing more trustees. All that he now asked, however, was that their Lord ships would read the Bill a second time, and he would gladly receive any suggestions for its improvement in the Committee. The Bishop of LONDON thought the country was greatly indebted to his Noble and Learned Friend for taking up this subject. But he hoped he would not press it through the Committee in the present session. The Bishops would be shortly obliged to go into the country, and he thought that no measure - affecting the Chnrch ought to be discussed in their absence. This Bill would affect the Church considerably, inasmuch as the great majority of the educational trusts in the kingdom pos sessed incomes not exceeding 20/. a year. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he did not intend to press the Bill. •- Lord WROTTESLEY regretted that the Bill had been postponed to so late a period of the session. Lord - CAMPBELLthought th e measure one o f very great importance, and that it would, with alteration and + amendment, p rove to b e a great improvement on the present system. Still it was to be regretted that so great a measure, affecting upwards of 30,000 trusts, and 13,000,0001. of property should be introduced on the 22d of July. He had no objection to agree to the second reading, on the understanding that no further pro 7 gress should he made in the Bill until next session. The LORD CHANCELLOR only wished the Bill to go into Committee, that he might hear what alterations might be prepoSeri, but not to carry it through the Com mittee. As to the lateness of the session, he had pre pared the Bill at the beginning of the sess i on , b ut h e h a d not had the opportunity of bringing it forwal sooner. The Bishop of LONDON objected to the Bill going into Committee in the absence tit the Bishops, who were the best qualified to offer suggestions for its improve- ment. He respectfully requested his Noble Friend not to go further than the second reading. The LORD CHANCELLOR was understood to say that he would not proceed further in the present session, unless with the assent of 'the Right Rev. Prelate, after consulting with his Right Rev. Brethren. The Bill was then read a second time. THE CATHOLIC BEQUESTS (IRELAND) BILL. Lord W'HARNCLIFFE moved the order of the day for the third reading of this Bill, and the order being read, he proposed several amendments, which were agreed to. Lord MONTEAGLE returned his thanks to the Noble LOrd for the pains which he had taken with this Bill, and his care to give satisfaction to the persons for whose benefit the measure was intended. He would take that opportunity of expressing the great pleasure he felt at the intimation given in the other House with respect to the improvement of Maynooth College. The improved education of the clergy would 'do much to elevate the character of the people. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. The Parish Constables Bill was read a second time. - Several other Bills on the table were advanced a stage. • The Unlawful Oaths (Ireland) Bill was read a second time. The Colonial Postage Bill passed through Committee without discussion, and was report e d. The Assessed Taxes • Composition Act also passed through Committee. ROMAN CATHOLIC PENAL ACTS REPEAL BILL. Lord BEAUMONT moved that this Bill becomniitted. The Bishop of LONDON said that the proposed Act was neither more nor less than an Act to restore the supremacy of the Pope in this realm.—(Hear, hear.) He assured the House, that if they were to pais such a measure—repealing the Act of Uniformity and thirty other Acts, and at the same time interferingwith the pre rogative of the Crown—they would create great alarm throughout the country. He moved that the Bill be committed this day three months. Loyd BEAUMONT was surprised that at this time a Rev. Prelate could be found. to oppose the repeal of those laws which still kept the scaffold and the axe susp:nded over the heads of his Catholic fellow-subjects. Until those Acts were repealed, no Catholic, however loyal, was secure of his estates. He believed that there were. people willing to bring into operation those obsolete . Acts, as their Lordships had seen this day there were persons seeking to enforce far less atrocious Acts. He had no wish to injure the Established Church, but if the Noble and Learned Lord onahe Woolsack would point out, . amongst the Acts which he proposed to repeal, any that were necessary to the safety or the p ower of the Established Church, he would willingly leave them out of his . schedule. The Commissioners of Criminal LaW. Inquiry, in their seventh report, strongly, dwelt upon the necessity of •stbolishing those laws, and they, quotOd the eloquent language of Justice Blackstone condemna tory of those cruel and impolitic laws, The Bishop of LONDON sxplained, He agreed that many of those laws ought to be repealed. But Os-, Noble Lord proposed to repeal some Acts .the.s. were necessary for the security of the Church. What he now chiefly objected to was the season at Which the Bill was brought in—a season when it could not be adequately discussed, and when it eould scarcely be expeoted thit it would pass the Howe this year. Surely, the Nolde Lord did not think that in the next Gik months the Roman Catholics would be in a worse condition than they were now. It was certainly right that the liabili ties mentioned by the Noble Lord, although not enforced, should be done away .with.. But no inconvenience would be suffered by delaying it until the begianing of next session, when the Bishops, the rulers and defenders of the Church, would klp present in the House. The LOW) OHANCELLOR said that he had him. self eaantined the Bill, and had referred it to the Om.. missioners of Criminal Law Inquiry, who struck out some of the clauses. He now believed that th ere was not a single clause in the 13111, as it stood a t present, to which any reasonahle parson could object. He won dered that any one could say at the present day that it was necessary for the security of the Church .that any one who a second time denied the ;supremacy of the Queen should be transported. By that law every priest who said mass was still liable to the severest penaltie s ,. He would remit:send the Noble Lord to withdraw his motion, and the Right Rev. Prelate to withdistw his, so that the Bill might be printed and every Member of the House be enabled to see what its objects really were. Lord cAmpuLT, was sure that if the Right Rey, Prelate esstsminea the Bill he would find that is was not !id* to the objection which the Right Aii,varend Prelate supposed. He (Lord Campbelllsaggested that the Bill should go into CommitSass?r(i . fornia. .

Why were not the 1 1 ,3labops in their places as well as other Lords ?—(Haar, hear.) HiS Noble Friend de served the thaeks of the Catholics and of all liberal minded men for bringing in his Bill. The Bishop of LONDON would press his opposition. The LORD CHANCE'.( s LOR said that after what bad passed in the House, and what had been gutted in a pub lic print, it was absolutely neeessees: for his own justifi eation that he should ash 'their Lordships to print the Bill. He 01 9 ,t iz ill the House might go into Committee. pre forv,a, and the Bill be printed, that the Howse and ;he Public might see what the Bill ass.

ACTIONS FOR GAMING AT RACES SUSPEN SION BILL. (Continued from our Third Edition last night.) Lord- EGLINTOUN was certain that his Noble 'Friends on the'Committee would not condescend to act as they had beer(accused of acting, for the purpose (.f serving his interests. He would-by no means wish that on his account any friends of his would be so influenced. —(Hear, hear.) The Earl of RADNOR explained. The LORD .CHANCELLOR directed the short hand writer to read his notes of the question. Lord BROUGLIAM. said that lie was giving the House his assistance as a professional Peer, but he would cease to do so if the House did not protect him from interruption.—(Hear, and a laugh.) The witness was then called in and examined by Lord BROUGHAM . , as to whether he knew the name of the unknown, otherwise than through his brother, and in connection with these actions ? Witness—Never.—("Hear, hear i " from Lord Radnor.), Lord BROUGHAM said he never knew such great indecency before—(" Hear, hear," and " Order")=in a court of law as to call out "hear, hear" at the answer of a. -witness. But, it was, now clear, from the answers of the . witness, that the name was a privileg e d commun i cat i on, and the witness could not be compelled to answer the question. • The LORD CHANCELLOR concurred with his Noble and Learned Friend, as the doubt had arisen from the ambiguity of the witness's former answer. Lord CAMPBELL and Lord COTTENHAM were of .the same opinion but they thought that the question was by no moans an unnecessary or unimportant one. Lord RADNOR begged leave, in his own justifica tion, to read what had been said. The Noble Lord then read an extract from the witness's evidence.. The LORD CHANCELLOR—The question - was this, and it had been decided by Mr. Baron Parke—Wes the solicitor bound to disclose his client ? He said no, and so also decided Mr. Baron Parke. Lord CAMPBELL thought that further time ought e allowed for cousideration. The witness was then ordered to withdraw. The House went into Committee on the Bill. • Lord CAMPBELL suggested an amendment for the purpose of discontinuing, instead of only suspending, the actions. The Duke of RICHMOND said if the Actions were disCoritinued, and nothing further done, then the " un known," might renew them immediately. • After a few words from Lord CAMPBELL, The Bill passed through Committee, was reporter], aril ordered to be read a third time to-morrow (this day), and their Lordships to be summoned. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS, Mr. GREENE and others from the . Commons, broaghl up the Joint-Stock Recovery-at-Law Bill, Metropolitan - Buildings Bill, the Ayr Bridge Bill, and other Bills, which were severally read a first time. SLA VE- TRADE. The Earl of ABERDEEN said that, on Thursday, he would lay before the House the instructiens which had been given to officers engaged in the suppression of the slave trade. The Marquis of NORMANBY presented a petition from medical gentlemen of the metropolis, praying the Legislature to take measures for improving the sanatory regulations of the metropolis, and especially calling *at tention to the want of drainage, to churehyards; and crowded buildings; • Lord COTTIN' HAM presented petitions from per sons confined in the Queen's Prison, and in Whitecross -street, praying for the abolition of imprisonment for debt. Lord WHARNCLIFFE laid on the table a return of the number of perions in prison for debt in England and Wales. SUDBURY DISFRANCHISEMENT BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR called the attention of the House to this Bill, of which he moved the seeond reading. The evidence had shown a state of constant wild habitual brib Ty, more flagrant and corrupt than anything else that could be found in the history of Par liamentary elections. He therefore thought that, for the sake both of punishment and example, it was abso lutely necessary that the Bill should pass.—(Hear, hear.) His Lordship went through a detailed his tory of the Bills which had been previously brought up from the House of Commons. Counsel had stated that day at the bar, that the last Bill broke down in that I But how did that happen ? Before the election Committee, the witnesses for the petition and against it proved enormous corruption each against the other aide. But when these same witnesses came before that House to be examined, on a Bill for disfranchisement of the borough, and depriving those witnesses of the power of selling their votes, the two opposing parties coalescedt l and their Lordships were unable to obtain sufficient evi dence to warrant them its passing the Bill. The House of Commons, therefore, adopted the course of procuring a Commission to examine witnesses on the spot. The Commissioners found, on commencing their proceedings in Sudbury, a general determination not to answer any question—the witnesses standing on the point that their answers would tend to criminate themselves. At length, I,y obtaining the evidence of electors who had ceased to reside in the town, and of other persons, the Commis-. stoners succeeded in collecting a mass of proof am the corruption of the borough was so extensive, so deep rooted, and so inveterate, that it was a duty their Lord ships owed to the country and to the Constitution to deprive the electors of the power of repeating theseenor mities.---(Hear, hear.) His Lordship then eye (amidst much laughter) an account of the procceedings at the last election, which have already been frequently before the public. The result was, that there sins a majority for the liberal candidates of ten for one, and six for the other. Here the liberal bribery was successful; but be would be impartial; he would tell them that b r ib ery was qu i te as bad upon the Tory side.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) The same spirit prevailed on both sides; but the party that spent the most money obtained they most votes. •The losing side paid 1,4001,; the successful side p ai d 3,0001. N ce p ar t of the public-ouse-expenses, and only part of the .1,w:4 e* - : peuses of the election, • had yet hie paid, so that the whole of these two sums, amounting together to 4,001., was applied to those gross purposes.
