THE Ruisur MunDEn.—Yesterday morning was ap pointed for the trial of Charles Lamb, for the murder of a vouth at Ruislip eight years ago, and upon the Learned Judges, Mr. Baron Parke, and Mr. Justice Cresswell, taking their seats on the bench at ten o'clock, the prisoner was placed at the bar. After some consultation between the Judges and the Counsel, the trial was postponed till ten o'clock to-morrow (Saturday) morning. George Hawkins, 22, engineer, and Henry Crawconr, sur geon (the latter of whom surrendered to take his trial) were indicted for a burglary in the dwelling-house of James Starke, and stealing a time-piece, and other articles his pro perty. Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Payne defended the prisoners. The circumstances of this case will be fresh in the recol- lection of our readers, and the only point of interest connected with it, was the respectability of the defendant Crawcour, and the defence set up for him notwithstanding the positive testimony of one of the witnesses as to his identity, that he was entirely innocent of any share in the transaction. The fact of the robbery was distinctly made out, and a boy named Cummings swore that he was standing opposite the house of the prosecutor on the night of the robbery, and that he saw Crawcour come to the door with a lighted candle in his hand, and observed him let out two other persons from the house. The witness said he had known the prisoner Crawcour for some time, and was positive as to his identity. Mr. CLARKSON, on behalf of the prisoner Crawcour, called several respectable witnesses, who clearly proved, from the fact of his being at another place from half-past two o'clock until half-past nine on the night of the robbery, that it was utterly impossible he could have been at the prosecutor's house as deposed to by the boy Cummings. Another witness, a toll-gate keeper, also proved that he saw Cummings riding on the box of a cab, and on his asking him what he was about he said he " had got a case with the police," and that the " swell" inside the cab was the thief. This witness told Cummings he must be mistaken, for Crawcour was a very respectable man ; upon which Cummings asked him whether, as he had already sworn to him, he had not better " stick to it." The churchwardens of the parish in which Mr. Crawcour lived, and a number of other respectable witnesses, gave that prisoner a high character for honesty and integrity. Mr. Baron PARKE interposed and asked the jury if they were not satisfied with the evidence that had been already adduced, as to the character of the accused. The jury said they were quite satisfied upon this point. His LORDSHIP then summed up, and the jury immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. George Cockett, 31, coachman, was charged upon the Coro ner's inquisition with the manslaughter of Joseph Terry. Mr. PArNE appeared for the prosecution, and in his address to the jury he said that the grand jury had thrown out the bill that was preferred against the prisoner, but as the Coro ner's jury had returned a verdict of manslaughter, it was necessary that this should be disposed of. Witnesses were then examined, from whose evidence it appeared that the prisoner was at Shooter's-hill, driving a hackney-cab towards London, on the night of the occurrence, when he came up to a waggon, driven by the deceased, and as the horses were in the middle of the road, he attempted to pass on the near side, but the horses suddenly swerved towards him, ran against the cab, and threw it in the path. At this time the prisoner had not seen the driver of the waggon, but shortly afterwards he was found lying upon the road, having been evidently run over either by the cab or his own waggon. There was not the slightest proof that the prisoner was in any way instrumental in causing the death of the deceased. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL stopped the case, and expressed his opinion that there was no evidence in support of the charge. The jury accordingly returned a verdict of Not Guilty. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLERKENWELL. Mr. John James Sehledel, a merchant, living in Har rington-street, Hampstead, was charged with threaten ing murder Miss Schledel, the daughter of Mr. George Pfeiller .Schledel, a gentleman residing at 39, Ossulston street, Somers-town. Mr. Schledel deposed that the prisoner was his ne phel, and that on the previous night he went to the door of No. li t Parkington-street, Islingt on , b e l ong i n g to a gentleman named Evans, where his daughter was staying, and k noc k ed loudly for admission. He was re fused, and witness coming up at the time, directed him to go away. The prisoner refused, and his violent s t t kickingr e t hat" e time p tihn ed o i f dn n o : o g r h w t , twelve knocking tha tho o i sb e o k ' c might, g. ineffectual o ' clo c k, t disturbedsaysay in g k t he n° c w k h i n o lg a commenced e he would murder witness's daughter, and witness felt confident that if h e h a d got in he would have mur dered her. Mr. COMBE—But you have stated on the police-sheet that he assaulted you. Mr. Schledel—So he did; he knocked me down Wh en I interfered, but I will not press that charge. . Miss Sehledel, a pretty-looking girl of eighteen, de posed that the prisoner had threatened to dash her brains out ou the prerious day with a poker. Mr. Comm—Can you assign no reason ? Miss Schledel—He has been paying his addresses to me, and because I did not receive him as favourably as he de sired, he threatened to knock my brains out, and to kill himself, and I am afraid he will carry his threat into exe cution. Mr. CoMBE—Oh, then you are afraid he will destroy himself ? Miss Schledel—l am afraid he will kill me first. He wishes to marry me. Mr. ComnE—And you don't wish to marry him ? Miss Schledel—Oh 1 I don't know but that at some fu ture time, if he altered his conduct. Mr. CONDE (to the prisoner)—Now there is an en couragement for you to behave properly. The prisoner, who had previously looked very pensive, brightened up at this ; but the lady immediately said, " Oh ! no, no-- I don't wish to marry him ; lam in danger of my life from him ; he is out of his mind," _ _ Mr. CoMBE—Then you swear you consider your life in danger from him ? Miss Schledel—l do, positively. Mr. COMBE—Then you must find bail, sir. The prisoner said he had been paying his addresses to the young lady for the last two years, and the only ob struction to the match was her father. Mr. CONDE cut short the statement which the pri soner was about to make, by telling him he must go to prison if he did not find bail. Sergeant North, N 11,1 said a knife had been found on the prisoner. Mr. COMBE, after a private consultation with the pri soner's friends, committed him in default of bail, ordered the knife to be withheld, and that the prisoner be closely watched whilst he remained in the cells attached to the Court. A young thief, named Davis, who has been repeat edly convicted, was charged with stealing a Blenheim spaniel, the property of Mr. Gobbey, a tradesman, living in Vine-street, Hatton-garden. The offence was clearly proved, and the prisoner fined in the amount of 81., or three months' imprisonment.— Committed. DARING BURGLARY and VIOLENT ASSAULT IN EDINBURGH. Tuesday night one of the most daring and atrocious cases of burglary and assault that have occurred here for a long time past, was perpetrated in the house and on the person of Miss Belaney, a lady about sixty years of age, who had been for some time living by herself in a house in Buccleuch-place. The facts of the case, so far as they have been yet ascertained, are as follow: About half-past eight in the evening Miss Belaney was in a bed-room of her house, on the kitchen flat, when she heard a noise, which she at first supposed to proceed from one of her neighbour's houses, but, on listening with more attention, she found proceeded from one of the upper rooms of the house. She was hastening to the kitchen for the purpose of turning off the gas, when sh? was met in the passage by a man, who, with some heavy instrument or poker, struck her over the head, and felled her to the ground. While lying in this defenceless position, the fellow, with the same instrument, inflicted several severe blows on her head, probably with the intention of murdering her. Miss Belaney, mustering all her strength, endeavoured to free herself from the villain's grasp, and in doing so, called out " Murder," on which the man, fearful of the alarm being communicated to persons in the street, or in the adjoining houses, made a precipitate retreat through the bed-room, and then leaped out at a window which opened into a garden behind the house. The unfortunate lady having in a few minutes recovered herself sufficiently to walk, unlocked the kitchen door in the area, and called out for assistance. Some persons who happened to be passing immediately entered the house, and found her lying in the passage, deluged with blood, and indeed almost lifeless. She was immediately carried into a bed-room, and information of the circum stances conveyed to the police. The attempt at robbery was evidently premeditated, and executed with the greatest coolness and deliberation. a i n p s t a r i u r m o e f n m ts e n k ' n s o s ; h v o n e s a , s a n a d ilni life - h p e r ( p s a e s r s v a e g r e , In the course of thei r searc h, t h e pol i ce found behind the k on ite e h o e f n d th o o o s r e heavily loaded with lead.

STATE - of AFFAIRS at OTAHEITE. (From the Liverpool Times of Tuesday.) We had yesterday an interview with the Rev. Mr.. Howe, one of the missionaries of the London Mis sionary Society, who has just arrived in Liverpool, di rect from Otaheite, which island he left on the 27th of August, and from him we have learnt the following particulars of the present state of that and of the other islands of the Society Group : The whole population of Otaheite, and the other islands claimed by the French, were in arms against them, and they were masters of nothing beyond what they occupied in Otaheite itself. They could not move a mile from Papeiti without being attacked by the natives. who were determined to resist to the last. The total French force consiged of about 1,000 men, and of the natives there were, either in Otaheite or the adjoining islands, from 4,000 to 5,000 determined men in arms, resolved to resist them to the last. Already fr0m. , 200 to 250 of the French had fallen in attacking the strong position taken by the natives, of whom about 100 had also lost -their liver— Itoncumr. taxa roGused. tor ham. anything to do with the French. She had joined her subjects in one of the adjoining islands, and was deter mined either to live or die a queen.: CLASS LAW MAKING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Tbe infamous " class" law making must be ex posed to the utmost. I take the opportunity of noticing two other tricks of the aristocracy. The first, as re spects the window duty. The greater the number of windows a nobleman or gentleman has (though he is the party who can the better afford to pay), he pays less in proportion to those in different stations in life, with a lesser number of windows. The second, as respects stamp duty upon conveyances and mortgages of real property. The larger purchaser and mortgagor (who can the better aff o rd), p a y s l ess d uty , i n proportion, to the smaller purchaser and mortgagor. The more the public are enlightened upon " class" law making, the more they (except those who have made those infamous laws) are surprised and disgusted. The aristocracy have placed themselves awkwardly at last. Feb. 4, 1845. EXPOSITOR.

BRUSSELS, FEB. 3.—A letter from St. Petersburgh of the 20th January, says, " Her Majesty the Empress attended Divine service in the palace the day before yesterday, on oc casion of the celebration of the anniversary of the birthday of her Majesty the Queen of the Netherlands." The fact proves that the reports spread by the German papers of the pretended indisposition of the Empress, are unfounded. The accounts from the interior of Russia give a very melancholy picture of the situation of the Russians in the Caucacus. A German journal affirms, that in less than two years they have lost all the fruits of their efforts during six successive campaigns. In the spring they will have to con tend with all the tribes which have hitherto remained neutral. It is affirmed that the Army of Operations will be increased to the number of 120,000 or 130,000 men. VIENNA, JAN. 18.—Prince Ferdinand of Saxe Coburg is not yet quite out of danger, though his disorder has taken a favourable turn. A few days ago a young man was arrested here for having made repeated attempts to force his way into the Imperial box at the theatre, and to present himself to the Imperial family. As far as yet appears, his intellects are disordered, and he has a fixed notion that he is a hitherto unknown member of the Imperial family. Accounts from Gray unanimously deplore the great loss that threatens the poor of that city, by the intended de parture of the eldest branch of the royal family of France, who have resolved to remove in May to Frohsdorf near Wienac Neustadt, and there to fix his permanent abode.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. ROUSE OF COMMONS, Feb. 7. The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour. RAILWAYS. Several petitions were presented in favour of some of the intended lines, but they were mentioned in so low a tone that we were unable to catch their names. LANCASTER AND CARLISLE RAILWAY. Mr. KEMBLE presented a petition in favour of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway. KENDAL AND WINDERMERE RAILWAY. The Hof. MEMBER also presented a petition in fa vour of this line. ATTORNEYS' CERTIFICATE DUTY. Mr. CHRISTOPHER presentQd two petitions from the attorneys practising in the neighbourhood of Burton on-Humber and Hull, praying that certain fees might be abolished by the House. MEDICAL REFORM BILL The Hon. C. P. VILLIERS presented a petition from the surgeons and apothecaries of Wolverhampton against this measure. POOR-LAWS. Sir JOHN EASTHOPE presented a petition from the Corporation of the Borough of Leicester, in council as sembled, with reference to the Bill about to be brought in to consolidate and amend the law regu lating the law of settlement for the poor. He said that, perhaps, he would best discharge his duty in reference to this petition, by stating that it came from a very large meeting of the borough, and the subject it treated on appeared to have been very deliberately and carefully considered. He knew he could not enter fur ther upon the merits of the subject without founding a motion upon it, and therefore he would content himself with the observations he had made, and present the petition. CHESTER AND BIRKENHEAD RAILWAY. Mr. TOLLEMACHE presented a petition in favour of the Chester and Birkenhead Railway Extension Bill. —Ordered to lie on the table. NOTICES OF MOTION. Lord EBRINGTON gave notice that, on Monday next, he should present a petition from the Rev. Dr. Car withen, Rector of Stoke, in the diocese of Exeter, pray ing that the statute of 2d and 3d of Edward VI., cap. 1, and of 2d Elizabeth, cap. 2, might be repealed, and that the House would cause to be made a calm and temperate revision of the Book of Common Prayer and of the Canons of the Church of England. The NOBLE LORD also gave notice that, on Tuesday next, he should move for leave to bring in a Bill to limit the exemption from turnpike tolls of carriages carrying her Majesty's mails. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 8, 1845. POOR-LAW COMMISSION. Colonel SIBTHORP moved for certain returns which he had moved for in the month of May last, but which had not yet been laid before the House. They were a return of the number of days each Poor-law Commis sioner has sat in discharge of his official duty at the office appointed for such official sittings, or at any other place for the same purpose. Also, a similar return of the number of days each Assistant Poor-law Commis sioner has been engaged in the discharge of his official duty, the place and periods at which those have been performed respectively, whether at the office of the Central Board of Commissioners, or in visits and inspections, or other matters of official duty at the dif ferent unions or union workhouses throughout England and Wales, the number of days employed therein, and the amount of expense incurred by each Assistant Poor law Commissioner, in travelling or in other incidental expenses relating thereto. On the question being put, The Hox. and GALLANT COLONEL said that he had understood that it had been the intention of the Right Hon. Gentleman to make some observations before the question was put. Mr. MANNERS SUTTON said that, perhaps, the Hon. and Gallant Gentleman would postpone his motion for the present. He did not know that there would be any objection to the ground of return, but he knew that his Right Hon. Friend was not at present in the House, and that he wished to make some observations on the subject. Col. SIBTHORP had no wish to take any Hon. Member by surprise, and he would postpone his motion. PRIVATE BUSINESS-RAILWAYS. Sir 11.Fia;:idti;ttheiion. Member for Greenock had a motion on the paper which was of great import ance as regarded the private business of the House. It was for a Select Committee to inquire into the present mode of conducting private business before Committees of that House,with a view to theitiprovement of the same. Considering the increased number of railway Bills that were coming before Parliament, he thought the time had arrived when it would be expedient to appoint a Select Committee, consisting of the Hon. Member himself, and other Hon. Gentlemen who might hereafter be named, to consider what arrangements could be made for in suring the facility and dispatch of private business. Points of great importance connected with competing lines of railway would arise, and great advantage to private business might accrue from the Committee taking the points of most pressing importance into considera tion, as it might be able to offer useful suggestions to the House. If, therefore, the Hon. Gentleman would postpone the motion of which he had given notice, he (Sir It. Peel) would, in the course of next week, make the necessary arrangements for the appointment of this Select Committee. Mr. WALLACE felt exceedingly obliged to the Right lion.l3aroust for his proposition, which was en tirely in accordance with his own view of the matter. He would postpone his motion. POOR-LAW IN IRELAND. Mr. F. FRENCH, seeing the Right Hon. Secretary of the Home Department in his place, would again put a question to him of great importance to Ireland, and one on which they had a right to expect the institution of a searching inquiry. It was the working of the poor-law in Ireland. Some alteration must be made in a system which experience had show n was di stasteful to the people and unsuited for the country. The question he had to ask was, whether the state ment which had appeared in the Freeman's Journal was correct ? It stated that f our execut i ons had been put into the , union workho use o f B a lli nro b e, and the furniture and effects seized ; a l so t h at executions had been put into union houses of Castlebar and Tuam. Under these executions goods and eff ec t s h a d b een so ld at Tuam at a great sacrifice of property, blankets that cost ten shillings per pair, having been sold for five shillings. He wished to know from the Right Hon. Baronet whether these statements were correct ? Sir JAMES GRAHAM said the H on . G ent l eman h ad given him notice of his question with respect to one work house—that of Tuam ; but he was not aware whether the statement he bad just read from an Irish newspaper as to the other workhouses , was correct or not. Inconsequence of the Hon. Gentleman s notice, he had directed his at tention to the state of the Tuam w or kh ouse only. There it was true that an execut i on had been e n f orce d on th e goods and effects, but the circumstances were these : The union house at Tuam was a hired building, and the execution was put in by the landlord f o r ren t. The board of guardians of th at union positively refusing to carry the Act into effect, would no t ma k e a rate, or appoint a collector. The I oor-law authorities in conse quence of these circumstances had, in November last, moved in the Queens Bench for a mandamus to compel the guardians to make a rate, and appoint a collector forthwith. That mandamus had been served by order of the Court upon the Board of Guardians, collectiv e ly an d indivi dually ; and they would be obliged immediately to ap point collectors, and to levy the rate. The execution would then be nullified, on the amount being paid out of the rate. EXPORT DUTIES. Sir R. PEEL laid on the table certain papers relating to the operation of the export duties. THE PRINTING OF COMMITTEES' REPORTS. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE, seeing the Noble Lord the Member for Liverpool in his place, wished to put a question to him in reference to the report of a Coin. mittee of which the Noble Lord was chairman last year. That Committee made a report, which was laid on the table, and with it an appendix. They were both ordered to be printed. The report was printed; but the appendix was not printed to the present hour. He had sent re peatedly to the printers ; but he was told that the report could not be had, because it was waiting for the appendix, and that the appendix could not be had, because it was waiting for the proof, which was in the hands of a Member of the Committee to be cor rected. Now he (Mr. Duncombe) insisted that after the Committee laid this report on the table their functions ceased, and they had nothing more to do with the report or the appendix. He was in possession of the appendix by special favour of the Speaker, but he wished to know from the Noble Lord why it was kept back, and in whose hands it was ? Lord SANDON said that the Committee had en trusted the task of •arranging and classifying the docu ments which constituted the appendix to the Hon. Member for Kendal, who had taken great pains with the subject. These documents still remained in the hands of that Hon. Member, and he (Lord Sandon) was sure that whatever obstacles remained in the way of the pub lication of the report would soon be removed. Mr. T. S. DUNCOMBE expressed a hope that no further time would be lost in presenting these papers to the House. Lord SANDON said' that as far as he was concerned certainly no time should be lost. DUTY ON TOBACCO. Mr. HUME presented a petition from the tobacco manufacturers of London, signed by all but three, com plaining that their grievances still existed, and praying that the duty on tobacco might be repealed. THE LOED-LIEUTENANTCY OF THE COUNTY OF MAYO. Mr. BELLEW inquired whether it was true that Lord Lucan had been appointed Lord-Lieutenant of the county of Mayo? Sir R. PEEL—Yes, it is true. GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL STATEMENT- THE INCOME-TAX. Sir B. PEEL rose and said—Sir, it may be con venient for me now to state the course which I intend to pursue on Friday next. I believe it will be competent for me, without moving for a Com mittee of Ways and Means, to take the course of moving a resolution to continue for a further period the laws which impose a tax on income. But as that is not the usual course of late years, I propose, on Wednesday to adopt the following proceeding, viz., to move for a Committee of Ways and Means, and then in the Committee of Ways and Means on Friday next, I shall propose a resolution to the effect, that the laws which impose a tax on income in Great Britain, and the law which imposes an additional n duty in Ireland, should be continued for a further limited period. That is the nature of the resolution I propose to move in Committee of Ways and Means. Mr. HUMS—WiII the Right Hon. Gentleman ex plain to the House what are the taxes he intends to remit ? Sir ROBERT PEEL—I propose, on Friday, to enter into a general review of the subject, when I will state what course I intend to take, but I cannot enter into any explanation now. I will give the fullest statement on Friday next, with respect to the nature of the pro posals her Majesty's Government intend to adopt. Lord JOHN RUSSELL—The Right Ilpn. Baronet proposes to do that in Committee of Ways and Means. Sir R. PEEL—Yes. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES ACT. Mr. WALLACE wished to put a question to the Right Hon. Baronet. The Right Hon. Gentleman was aware that an important decision had been come to in one of the courts of Scotland with regard to the Weights and Measures Act. The decision affected the general understanding of the administration of the law on that Act in Scotland, and it had caused in particular dis tricts a very great degree of anxiety, not to say dis turbance. He begged, therefore, to inquire, whether it was the intention of the Right Hon. Baronet to take any steps in the matter ? Sir J. GRAHAM said that, in answer to the ques tion of the Hon. Gentleman, be had to state that he was perfectly aware of the decision that had been come to on the subject of the Weights and Measures Act of Scotland, and he was aware that this decision affected a large portion of the community in Scotland. The decision to which the Hon. Gentleman referred was the decision of a judge on circuit—a very elaborate and learned decision, and one entitled to great weight--but at the same time the decision of a single judge. The same question which had been brought before this in ferior tribunal would shortly be brought before all the judges in the Court of Justiciary, and before the deci sion of that tribunal had been given he thought it would be premature to discuss the propriety of any alterations. Mr. WALLACE wished to know how soon the ques tion would come before the court? Sir JAMES GRAHAM had every reason to believe that the opinion of the Court of J usticiary would be taken in a very short time. NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. YOUNG a new writ was ordered to be issued for the election of a Member for the county of Buckingham, in the room of Mr. Charles Scott Murray, who, since his election, had accepted the office of the Stewardship of her Majesty's Chiltern Hundreds. BRAZIL. Mr. BOUVERIE wishedloknow whether the report, that commercial negotiations had been entered into with Brazil, had any foundation ? Sir R. PEEL said he hoped unless the case were very pressing, Hon. Members would have the goodness to give notice of their intention to put questions of this nature. He knew the danger arising from a question of that kind, and he did hope that a few hours' notice would be given. Mr. WitIVERIE said he would repeat the question on Monday. SUPPLY. The House then went into a Committee of Supply, Mr. GREENE in the Chair. On the motion that a supply be granted to her Majesty, Mr. HUME said that he was of opinion that they ought to hear the financial statement before they voted any supply. He did not mean to divide the House on this question, but he wished to guard himself against being misunderstood. Without having some informa tion before him, he was not prepared to vote for an increase of the navy, merely on account of an increase in the steam navigation. His opinion was that the estimate for the navy ought not, on that account, to be increased. His humble opinion was, that they should know the financial state ment before they voted any money for the expenses of the country, and if he did not oppose the present motion, it was because the Right Hon. Baronet promised at an early day to bring forward his financial scheme, His object in rising now was to guard himself, for the reason assigned, against being bound to grant any supply to her Majesty. His opinion was, that the state of the country required that they should reduce, by every means in their power, the amount of taxation, and he would frankly state that he was surprised the Right Hon. Baronet should have called on her Majesty to congratulate the country on - the amount of taxation. If he looked at the papers laid on the table to-day, it would appear that fifty-nine millions would be received by the Treasury in the course of the year, an amount much larger than in former years— some ten years ago, when Europe was in an unsettled state, and the state of America required a large es tablishment. But, now, when everything tended to security and peace, an increase in their establish ments was asked for. He would not ask the Committee to support his opinion by pressing for a division ; but he begged leave to enter his protest, for :he reasons assigned, against the grant, and he should like to hear from the Right Hon. Baronet his exposition of the plans he had in view.—(llear.) Sir IL PEEL felt assured that it could not be sup posed that her Majesty's Government would propose a vote for any amount of supply, without laying before the House a full statement of the reasons why that amount of supply was demanded ; and therefore he did hcpe that the Hon. Member would not prejudge and condemn the course the Government intended to pursue until he had heard what that course was. The Hon. Member had said he conceived that the increase of steam navigation was a reason why the taxation should be lessened ; but were it nut possible that it might become necessary to build new steam-vessels--(Hear)—as the commerce of the country might extend itself.—([fear.) Therefore, all he now asked of the Hon. Member was to suspend his judgment until he had heard the state ment he (Sir R. Peel) had alludectto. - -(Heate) Surely, it was a legitimate cause of congratulation to the House and to the country that the revenues had increased, and that there was a surplus, and not a deficit in the Treasury. Mr. HUME had no objection to the Government con gratulating itself on that subject, and he for one would, of course, be better pleased to hear of a surplus than a deficit. But he would say that the only chance the country had of a reduction in the public expenditure was by keeping the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the First Lord of the Treasury short of money.—(Hear, and laughter.) Therefore he could not concur with the statement of the Hon. Baronet, fur he would repeat it, that the increase of steam navigation was no reason for an increase of the public taxation. Lord JOHN RUSSELL had no doubt but that e hen the Right Hon. Baronet made his financial statement he would assign good, and sufficient, and legitimate grounds for the course he had announced it as the inten tion of the Government to adopt.—(Hear.) He did not concur in the opinion of his Hon. Friend behind him, that it was matter of surprise to have at this early period of the session the financial statement of the Government brought forward. On the contrary, he (Lord John Russell) was not taken by surprise at this announcement, for he conceived it would be a very convenient course to the country to adopt. It was a perfectly legitimate course for her Majesty's Ministers to state, at as early a period as possible of the session, the amount of revenue they conceived necessary for the public service, and then to state the means by which they intended to meet that demand ; at the same time he did not look upon such a course as a precedent for future years. Sir R. PEEL said the reason he had made the intima tion he had upon this subject was, in order to prevent confusion and inconvenience to the public service ; but he did not intend that the amount the Government in tended to ask for should be a precedent for future years. Mr. HUME said the Noble Lord had acted contrary to what he would do in the management of his own private affairs—(Laughter) —for the affairs of the nation should be conducted on the same principle as those of a private individual, and it was well known that the pri vate individual who did not act so incurred more than he could pay.—(Renewed laughter.) They should be still more particular, more careful, and more cautious, as the money they spent was not their own, and belonged to the public. Mr. S. CRAWFORD was happy to find that, after the lapse of two years, the House had adopted his pro position.—(Laughter.) He begged leave to state that he had, two years ago, moved the suspension of the esti mates until after the financial statement had been made. He would not, however, offer any opposition to the mo tion of the Right Hon. Gentleman. The CHAIRMAN then reported progress, and the House resumed. POOR-LAW UNIONS. Mr. MANNERS SUTTON moved that a Select Com mittee be re-appointed to inquire into the administra tion of the law for the relief of the poor in the unions formed under the Act 22 Geo. 111., c. 3, s. 83, and to report to the House their opinion whether it was ex pedient that the said union should be maintained. Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD did not rise to give any opposition to the appointment of the Committee, but he thought the appointment of it was completely useless, and an entire waste of time. If the Government had determined to abolish the Gilbert unions, it was better to save the waste of time which would be consumed in making the report. Circumstances had occurred at Rochdale from which it would appear that the Government were determined no longer to permit such relief in any place. The people of Rochdale had been accustomed to administer to the necessities of their own pool. under the Select Vestry Act, but the Com missioner,' determined that they should do so no longer. But when he - saw that this law was pertinaciously per sisted in in the borough with which he was connected, if it were the opinion of the Government that no other poer-law administration should exist in England but that which was provided by the New Poor-law Act, he did not think it necessary that they should go into a fur therinquiry into the Gilbert unions. There were essential difference between the Gilbert Act and the new Poor law Act. The Gilbert Act gave partial relief, while the Poor-law Act gave ,no relief at all, unless the par ties relieved were reduced to the lowest circumstances. He protested against the latter law, and the people of England looked upon it as a violation of their rights. —(Hear, hear.) There was a contest going on on this subject between the people and the Government. It was a desperate contest, and on e w hi c h t h e people of England would not easily give up. He. could not, there fore, avoid taking that opportunity of calling the atten tion of the Government ",o the necessity of considering the new Poor-law. It was a thing which could no longer go on. The Right Hon. Baronet the Secretary for the Home Department had heard from several Hon. Members, the other night, what had been the result of this law. It had produced lamentable distress, and it ought to be in some wily atnenduci, If the Government, however, were determined to go through with the law, they need not go into any further inquiry co ncerning the Gilbert unions. It was a measure' of deep importance. It had been stated that loyalty existed in this country. It was certain however, if this law were persisted in, it would be im possible that this loyalty could be continued. Under those circumstances he called upon her Majesty's Government to declare their intention with respect to the parishes under the Gilbert Act. If it was their intention to continue the Gilbert unions, why not say so at once, and not continue the inquiry, which appeared to produce no benefit? He would admit that it was impossible there could be any mode of relief which would not be liable to abuses, and no doubt some trifling abuses did exist in the Gilbert unions, but they were not so flagrant as those of the New Poor-law. If an inquiry were to be made into these unions, it was only fair that there should also be an inquiry into the effect of the New Poor-law, and the case would be put fairly before the nation which was the best means of relief, as well as the evils of both. He had had the honour of coming up to the Right Hon. Baronet, the Secretary for the Home Department, on a deputation from Rochester. They stated to him what had occurred there, and that out of 22,000 ratepayers, they were all against the New Poor-law with the exception of nineteen. The Right Hon. Baronet received the deputation with his usual courtesy, and the answer he gave was, that he had no power to interfere with the law. Now, if he had not the power to control the Commissioners, he (Mr. S. Crawford) felt disposed to give it to him. He could not avoid making those few observations, and if it was necessary to make further inquiry into the subject of the Gilbert unions, he thought that the New Poor-law ought to be considered as well. The motion was then agreed to, and the following Hon. Members were appointed to serve on the Com mittee :—Mr. Barneby, Capt. Pechell, Mr. Thcs. Dun cornbe, Sir Robert Heron, Mr. Colvile, Sir William Heathcote, Mr. Beckett Denison, Mr. Wrightson, Viscount Barrington, Mr. Manners Sutton, Mr. Strutt, Viscount Marsham, Mr. Labouchcre, Mr. Wakley, and Mr. Protheroe. POOR-LAW COMMISSION. Colonel SIBTHORP, seeing the Right Hon. Baronet the Secretary for the H ome Department in his place, would renew the motion which he had made in the early part of the evening for the returns which had been ordered to be made in the month of May last, but which had not yet been made as to the occu pations of the Poor-law Commissioners. The return had then been assented to, but he understood that the Right Hon. Baronet now intended to object to it, and would assent only to make a partial return on the sub ject. But, unless the Right Hon. Baronet could give some satisfactory reason for objecting to that to which he had assented in the month of May last, he (Colonel Sib thorp) should certainly take the sense of the House on the subject. He understood that the Right Hon. Baronet considered that there would be some difficulty in making the return, but there was no roster kept of the number of days on which thePoor-lawCommissioners were employed, Tho Right Hon. Gentleman, as he understood, said th a t there was no roster kept of the number of days which he was employed at the Home-office ; but he (Colonel Sib tborp) did not wait for any return of the number of days which the Right Hon. Gentleman was employed, because he believed himself, and it was the general opinion of the public, that there was no public officer more attentive to the duties of his office than the Right Hon. Gentleman.—(Hear, hear.) He did not say this out of flattery—(A laugh)—but he believed it was generally admitted that no one had given greater satisfaction as Secretary of State for the Home Department than the Right Hon. Baronet.— (Hear, hear.) He did not want any roster of the num ber of days the Right Hon. Gentleman was in his office, because he believed that the Right Honourable Gentleman performed his duties faithfully; but he did not belive that the same could be said of all officials. Now, with regard to these commissioners, he had no opportunity of knowing if they were properly employed or not. He should like to see a statement of where they were. They might be in improper places for anything that appeared to the contrary, and he had no opportu nity of knowing whether they were or not, and he should like to have an opportunity of knowing.—(Laughter,) He wanted to know where they were, and what they were doing ?—(Laughter.) Now, unless the Right Hon. Baronet would assure him that he had no suspicions with regard to them, he must have the same return which he had before moved for, and the Right Hon. Baronet was bound to furnish to the House and the public the reason by he now refused what he had before assented to. Sir JAMES GRAHAM said what the Hon. and Gallant Officer had stated was true, that towards the end of last session he thought it his duty to make this motion, and that he (Sir James Graham) did not oppose it. But he submitted to the Hon. and Gallant Officer that with regard to the first of these two questions, there would be a great difficulty in making any return. With reference to the attendance of the Chief Com missioners, no roster was kept any more than of the attendance of the Commissioners of Customs or Excise, or of the Revenue Board, and without such a roster it was hardly possible to give in detail the return the Hon. and Gallant officerdesired. At the same time he was bound to state of his own personal knowledge, that no public ser vants were more attentive in the execution of their duties than the Poor-law Commissioners. It would be for the satisfaction of the Hon. Gentleman or the House, that as far as possible this information should be afforded. So far from resisting it, he would do all in his power to furnish it. Could it be considered as any reflection on the Poor-law Commis sioners, he should have felt it his duty to have resisted the motion, but as he did not think this could be the case, he should grant the return. Mr. F. FRENCH said that in the appointment of the Committeebf Inquiry the word "operation" had been omitted. He begged to ask the Right Hon. Secretary for the Home Department, whether this had been done designedly, and if not, whether there would be any ob jection to have the omission corrected ? Sir J. GRAHAM said that, although it had been stated by an lion. Member just now, that suspicion at tached to every thing that was connected with the poor. laws, he could assure the Hon Gentleman who put the question to him, that he had not been aware of the omis sion to which the lion. Gentleman referred. But if it would be any satisfaction to the Hon. Gentleman, he (Sir J. Graham) would not object to the insertion of the word " operation." The returns were then ordered. RAILWAYS. Mr, YOUNG, according to motion, moved a resolution to suspend, for the present Session, Standing Order No. 102, " That all Petitions for Private Bills be presented within twenty-one days after the First Friday in every Session of Parliament," to fix the days for receiving Petitions for Private Bills. Mr. ENTWISLE objected to the suspension of the standing order. At the same time he wished to explain that he was mistaken when he said, last evening, that the preliminary expenses for preparing a railway Bill were only a!!;out 30/. or 40/. Ho found that the cost of printing only was of that amount. There were other expenses considerably above that sum. The Board of Trade had made their report against cer tain parties, and they would be enabled to delay printing their Bills until they had ascertained thercason on which the Board of Trade had grounded their decision. The parties, therefore, rejected by the Board of Trade, would be in a more favourable position than those in whose fa vour the Board of Trade had reported, because they would be enabled to draw up their Bill, embodying ' clauses to meet the objections which the Board of Trade had entertained to their plans. On that account he would object to granting so much time as had been asked to enable them to draw up their Bill, after the reasons of the Board of Trade had been given. He had very- little experience in that House, but he had considerable experience out of it ; and he could as sure the House that, from the very day in which the case was placed in the hands of Parliamentary agents, that their expenses commenced. All those expenses the Company in whose favour the Board of Trade reported had to bear, while the Company against which the Board of Trade reported only had to bear the expense of getting up and printing their Bills. The SPEAKER having put the question, Mr. ENT WISLE said he should move that the standing order with regard to petitions should not be suspended. Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET said (as we un derstood), it was indispensable that the original motion should be agreed to, in order to carry out the resolution of last session, for the appointment of the Board of Trade. Mr. HODGSON HINDE thought it had been clearly made out that it was necessary to take some step of this kind in order to prevent injustice from being dune to those cowponies against whom the Board of Trade had re ported. Great injustice would be done if parties in whose favour the Board of Trade had reported were obliged to delay going into Committee till the adverse Bill was in a state of such forwardness as to be com mitted also. He therefore haped that the parties who were promoting an adverse Bill should be obliged to bring their case before the Committee, though they were not in a state of forwardness to entitle them to come before the Committee. If some such plan were not followed, the promoters of an adverse line might delay until the last moment, so that parties who had a bona fide intention of proceeding with their Bills might be delayed for three weeks, which, at the commencement of the works on a line, would be equiva lent to six months in the opening of a railway. He hoped, therefore, that his Noble Friend would give his attention to the subject. Mr. ENTWISLE then withdrew his amendment, and the following resolutions were agreed to :-- _ _ 1. Resolved—That this House will not receive any petition for any Private Bill, other than a Railway Bill on which the report by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gazette, after Friday, the 28th day of this instant February. 2. Resolved—That no Private Bill, other than a Railway Bill on which the Report by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gazette, be read the first time after Friday the 28th day of March next. 3. Resolved—That this House will not receive the Report of any Private Bill, other than a Railway Bill on which the Report by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gazette, after Friday the 30th day of May next. _ _ 4. Resolved—That this House will not receive any petition f)r any Rail Kay Bill, of which the report by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gazette, later than the twenty-first day afro r the day of the pub lication of such report in the Gazette. 5. Resolved—That no Railway Bill, of which the re port by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gazette, shall be read the first time later than the twenty-eighth day after the day of the reception by this House of the petition for such Railway Bill. 6. Resolved, That this House will not receive the report of any railway Bill, of which the report by the Railway Board has not yet appeared in the Gaetic, later than the eighty-fourth day from the clay of the reception by this House of the petition for such Railway Bill. And, that the said resolutions be printed. The House then adjourned at.eix o'cl9ck• - • ROYAL INSTITUTION. Professor Faraday devoted the greater portion of his leo' ture last week to describing the results of previous attempts to liquify and solidify different gases. He first exp lained the distinction between a gas and a vapour. The latter, though resembling in all its mechanical properties a perma nently elastic gas, is nevertheless easily condensed into a liquid, by reduction of the temperature by ordinary mean s under the pressure of the atmosphere. A gas, on the cm' trary, cannot be conden se d by an y ordinary re d uc tion of tem perature. He had originally succeeded in condensing carbonic acid gas, by generating it enclosed in a tube,,. by which means the pressure was increased to thin): atmospheres, and then the liuid carbonic acid appeared al, one end of the tube. He had subsequently succeeded. _11.! liquifying some more of the gases, and other chemists had added to the number, so that there were known to be ni n e gases capable of being condensed, by pressure, Tillorier discovered that by the expansion of liquid 7 bonic acid in escaping so much cold is produced that t a il liquid becomes solid, and assumes the form of snow, but been the other gases had resisted the many efforts that had bbesed made to reduce them into a solid form. He e. now to announce, as the results of his recent ape •' that he had succeeded in liquifying six never tional fie et into liquids. tional gases, and bad solidified seven that had —l n previously been known in that form. The principle, e t which he had proceeded in those experiments was to subjee, the gas when under pressure to the lowest tenaperature!ett tamable by artificial means. It had been an error in e t t i . experimenters to endeavour to succeed by pressure alone, T o each gas may be con s id ere d t o h ave its freezing and liquid point as well as water; it would, therefore, u e ,. reasonable to expect to freeze water by subjecting immense pressure without cold as it would be to freezeb. gas by pressure alone. Acting on this principle, be g a rble jected the gases to be operated on to the lowest ". as temperature under great pressure. Solid carbonic acid; d the substance employed for generating cold. Wh en 1111 10 e 5 with either, it produces a degree of cold equal to deg. below the zero of F a h ren h e it, t h at i s 137 deg. below the freezing point of water. To di m i n i s h th e temperatur e t„a lower, he placed the vess e l con t a i n i ng the solid carbo nic :os ether under the receiver of a n air-pump, by whichin re" the ether was made to boil and the temperature wal,,re., duced sixty degrees lower. Into this " cold bath," as e ll fessor Faraday termed it, he placed a strong tube of gre w; bottle glass, connected with a series of small force-pump s ' l g which means he was enabled t o o bt a i n a pressure exceeds " one hundred atmospheres. Th e p umps were fed with g 7; be operated on, and thus he obtained his results.• Professor Faraday illustrated by experiment in ", ; •ibeil. citous manner the various parts of the process he de s ,,c otr From a reservoir containing liquid carbonic acid.,:„"dled tamed a large quantity of it in a solid form this he "'"" e aa without inconvenience, for the film of gas 'formed bet , ' . the hand and the solid body prevents actual contact. ° the however, ether is mixed with the snow-like substane e ' r a, absorption of heat from surrounding bodies is 0 1 ;ally and a mass of quicksilver exposed to its action sEr ph became a solid metal, and a piece of w i r e with NT!" the was previously stirred became as firmly fixed old mercury as if it bad been solid lead. Of the sensation do r, produced by the mixture of solid carbonic acid arld r e gra . when placed under the air-pump, no more ideacan be 0— e d than of the heat of a forge, for the nerves would be destroe; by contact with a body much less cold. Pursuing,bisaday periment whilst operating on olefiant gas, Professor 1, s r , he exhibited liquified " olefiant" in the tube ; that being' observed, the first time that any one, excepting hiat ti eed the assistant operator, had hitherto seen olefiant gas 1. " -- to the form of a liquid. _et to In commencing the course of experiments, he "°,,ri t ic,b, have been able to liquify and solidify hydrogen g.,_ es 'ald not however, he had not yet accomplished, though a e 1 .7 0 00' despair of succeeding. He expected that that gas , Edified, would prove to be a m e t a l.

Without those t u bes h e ques ti o ned wile tl '" . o ald should have succeeded, or at least th e experiments would should have been attended with mu c h more danger.

The lecturegest cited great interest, and was listened to with the gre.ati attention, by an audience that comprised most of the S e fic men of eminence in the metropolis.
