High rates of premium have hitherto operated against this kind of Assurance, but as the scale now adopted will be found as low as is consonant with the risk, it is believed that this fact, coupled with other advantaaes, will induce a great increase of insurers.

On- Thursday a Court was held for the dispateh of business, Sir PETER LAURIE rose to call the attention of the Court to the very awkivard manner in which the names of.those brokers who retired from business were spoken of in the advertisements in the newspapers. These gen tlemen, many of whom were poisessed of great wealth, were described in the public notices of retirement from business as " discharged," so that many readers might be led to suppose that they had actually run away.•—(A. laugh and cries of "Hear.") He had heard many com plain of the disagreeable suspicion to which the mode of expression was calculated to give rise; and he wished to know .from the Town Clerk, by what authority such ad vertisements were inserted, and why they were per severed in?—(Hear, hear.) _ _ _ Mr. R. L. JONES said he happened to know a gentle man who had been a broker, and who stow resided in the Isle of Wight, with a fortune of 150,0001, with the same ungracious word " discharged" before his name. -. The Town 'Clerk, having spoken to the Lord Mayor, said the question was one which necessarily belonged to' the Court of Aldermen, but as his Lordship had directed thai an answer should be at once .given, anider the existingeircumstances, he had only to say that the word " discharged" was an official and technical 'word, used in strict conformity to the order of the Court of -Alder men, and was by no means intended to convey any im putation whatever. - Sir P. LAURIE said his object was to get the ugly sus picion removed altogether by the press. • FREE TRADE DINNER AT SALISBURY. THURSDAY, FEB. 29.—The leading gentlemen of the ancient Company of , Tailors, in this City, having kindly Wowed the friends of free trade their spacious hall for this Occasion, a most elegant dinner was served up by a veteran .in the cause, named Sworn, of the Coach and Horses Inn, who most nobly and manfully resisted intimidation at the two last elections in this City, and, consequently, this worthy host had, for a length -of time, been solicited, by a large circle of friends,' to provide a dinner for them to mark the kind feeling they entertained towards him for his exemplary con duct. .Covers were laid for about seventy gentlemen, being the full number the hall would contain; but as soon as the cloth was removed, it was agreed on that every recess of this *most curious and antique building should be filled. And. here it may be said that the first charter ever granted to this (the Tailors') Company, was in the year 1272, in the reign. of _Edward the First. The hall is most curi ously decorated with furniture of the oddest de scription, and over the fire-place, which is on the ground, and of an unusual width, is suspended the Com pany's coat of arms, while on the right entrance stands Sir Christopher, the giant of huge dimensions, which' is usually carried round the town on occasions of public rejoicings, followed by a " Hab nob" or " Hob nob," serjeants at mace, beadles, &c., in their old-accustomed liveries, with their other paraphernalia, &c. We mention these particulars, because it is referred to in the following speech of John Lambert, Esq. The chair was taken by William Fawcett, Esq., a tenant farmer of Earl Radnor, who was supported; on his _left, by Henry Cooper, N. V. Squarey, and C. Squarey, Esquires, and on his right hand, by Mr. Lambert, the chairman of the Salisbury branch of the National Anti-Corn-law League, &c. The cloth being removed, the CHAIRMAN rose to propose the health of her Most Gracious Majesty Queeri Victoria, and may she never forget the free principles which established her on the Throne of this realm.—(Great cheering.) The CirAnimArt thi health of " Prince Albert, sad-the enuly," . wlfich was also (ley acknowledg, The CHAIRMAN • o 'served, the toast he now rose to propose would, he was confident, be responded to by them all with every delight and enthusiasm, for it was, in point of fact, ' the principal toast of the evening, and that toast was " Prosperity to the cause of Free Trade !"—(The most deafening cheers here prevailed for some time.) Con siderable opposition, added the Chairman, was made to it at all hands ; but, great as that opposition was, it was his firm belief that in two years more this great principle would be triumphant.—(Cheers.) Yes, he believed that in two years more that old-fashioned gentleman at the other end of the hall (the Giant) would be perambulating the streets of Sa lisbury once more to celebrate the victory over monopoly and oppression.—(Reiterated cheering.) Mr. C. SQUAREY rose to propose " the health of Messrs. Cobden, Moore, and Bright, for their unceasing and indefa tigable labours and zeal in the glorious cause." We need scarcely add that this, toast was responded to with every demonstration of delight. TheCnAmmax then proposed " the health of Mr. Lam. bert," which was similarly received. • J. LAMBERT, Esq., in rising to return thanks for the ho nour they had conferred on him, said, he begged to present them his most cordial thanks. The present meeting was exceedingly gratifying to him, and he assured them that every time he now met them- impressed on him stronger feel ings ; and it produced increased pleasure, and, at the same time, increased anxiety. It increased his pleasure, be cause it was exceedingly gratifying to him to know that he bad discharged his duty to their entire satisfaction, and that his conduct was calculated to advance the cause which they were now celebrating.—(Cheers.) And it produced increased anxiety, for he- almost feared, taking humanity into consideration, that he should not be able to carry out those great principles incumbent on him—for they well knew the frailty of human nature, and how liable it was to err, and hence he was afraid that he should one way or the other deviate from the path of rectitude. But he would beg them to remember he had no wish to do so. And the only thing which he feared was that the cause might suffer at his hands. • Since they last met various circumstances had arisen, but not in his opinion ca l cu l a t e d t o i n j ure t h e cause which they had espoused, mid amongst others was the forma tion of the Anti-Anti-Corn-law League Societies. Salisbury, for one place, had used its efforts, poor and imbecile as they were. The meeting no doubt recollected that the Assembly Rooms was the place chosen for this hole and corner exhibi tion, where certain gentlemen and a few hirelings congregated to frustrate the honourable and- praiseworthy efforts of the National Anti-Corn-law League, and to give tho lie, if pos sible, to the assertions truly made as to the great progress of League principles here, and that its supporters were but few in number. It would be in their recollection, that about this time Lord Westminster subscribed the munificent sum of 500/.—(Loud cheers)—while at the Assembly Rooms, his friend Burden, the chimney-sweeper, enrolled him self a member of the Anti-League Society, at this hole and-corner meeting, ankiont his name down for nothing ! —(Laughter and cheers.) By the bye, he had a list of names of all the subscribers at this meeting, and had made a careful estimate therefrom, and he, therefore, ascertained that Load Westminster had more money coming -in in six weeks than all the Anti-League subscribers of Salisbury had in twelve Months ; and so much for a lately gained preponderating in fluence. Now this grand demonstration at • the Assembly Rooms was not an open meeting, but' that of a hole-and-corner character—(Hear)—where no one was allowed to proceed but persons favourable to their cause and reporters of the same. Consequently the inhabitants of Salisbury were ignorant of their transactions, save as reported in their own papers. It was quite impossible for any one to know what their pro gramme was, or what they intended to do—whether they were going to give lectures or hold public meetings, to refute the doctrine of the League. No, all was kept secret, as the meeting was, and the public left in profound ignorance of the course they intended to pursue.—(Hear, hear.) Contrast then the secret proceedings of these men with the open, fair, and candid conduct of the National Anti-Corn-law League, and any one could perceive which of the two had truth and justice on its side.—(Cheers.) As a triumph then,_ of League principles, he would refer them to the late Bridgewater meeting, where the League had plainly shown its ascen dancy.—(Loud cheers.) Now the Anti-League at Salisbury, not being content with the proceedings here, which he had described, went down to Devizes, and lent their assistance to a meeting of a very similar character. And this also could not be designated a county meeting, for the Sheriff did not convene it ; and there also every person of free trade principles was excluded, but their reporters were, of course, allowed. Now the meeting here eonsisted of every few gentlemen—some nine or ten clergymen and a number of voters, who were driven to the poll to record their votes for Mr. CampbelL So much for the Anti-League movements at Salisbury. Now the Tories had been distributing a few copies of a tract here ; but even in this instance they did not follow the example of the Anti-Corn-law League, for the League distributed their publications to one and all, without respect to party, with a view of • convincing every one that they had truth and justice on their side. Not so, however, with the Tories, who only furnished their own party with their': The 'tract to which he alluded was the speech of a Mr% Day, of St. Ives, in Huntingdonshire, and that place had been frequently spoken of by Mr. Cobden as being the only place where the League had been defeated, and the last place where persons had been burned for witchcraft.—(Laughter and cheers.) This tract, however, contained a strange medley of statements, and, among other assertions, it was alleged that if England purchased corn of other countries those countries would not in exchange take our manufactures. But if this opinion was generally en tertained or believed, why, he (Mr. Lambert) would ask, did so many individuals of high and undoubted authority sub scribe their five hundred pounds each ? What advantage would it be to the manufacturers if they could not extend their market? Mr. Hussey, M.P., in his speech, had been reported to express his fears;that if free trade took place a vast amount of gold would lie drained from this country; but they would be pleased to remember, that gold was not dug in Mr. Hussey's garden, nor in the late Mr. Wyndham's park. Where was it got then, and how? Why, from abroad, and in exchange for manufacturing industry. Was these not what was called the rate of exchange to correct the evil arising from a drainage of gold from this country? They would remember, that in the year 1842 there was a very large quantity 43/corn, two and a half millions of quarters, im ported ; and in that year there was a large r amoun t o f bul lion in the Bank than in the year when the import of corn was the smallest. Mr. Lambert then refuted several asser tions relative to the rate of wages keeping pace with the prices of corn, and in doing so pointed out, as an illustration, the low wages (7s. per week) given at Shrewton to agricul tural labourers. It must be evident, he added, that the price of labour entirely depended on its demand. Taking, for in stance, domestic servants. Cooks, because 'they were scarce, more especially good cooks, could obtain a higher rate of wages than servants in any other capacity, and were consequently sure of employment. Now, it was often urged against the views of the League, what low wages the labourers in Prussia received, but could the labourers of this country be possibly worse off than they were at present ? Let them read the accounts published in the papers from ' time to time, and an answer was at once given. They had no doubt read the report of the Covent-garden meeting, wherein it was stated by that patriotic and revered character, Mr. O'Connell—(Here a burst of popular feeling took place, which it is quite impossible to describe, and again and again the shouts of applause rent the ancient hall.) It was stated by this gentlemen (continued Mr. Lambert) that the labourers of Ireland get• but the poor, y scanty, and mi sera bl e p i ttance of 2i. 4cl. per week- 7 -(Cries of " Shame I")—and y e t thi s was the wages paid in an agricultural country, who were blessed (?) with agricultural " protection."--(Laughter.) But quitting this unhappy country, to which they need not, for :scenes of wretchedness, and misery, and shame, refer, they need go no further than Dorsetshire ; for he held in his hand a letter written by the Rev. Mr. Osborne to Lord Ashley, which contained many instances of the most lament able character which existed in that country. And most lamentable, he would repeat, was it to reflect that in almost their own immediate neighbourhood existed a population the one-eighth part of whom were paupers. Mr. Osborne states the miserable habitations of the poor in various parts of the country, and in one place he says, " The second division has the family of a man and his wife, aged forty-five, with seven children, from five to twenty-two years old, hav ing three bed-rooms, in one of which are six brothers and sisters. One of the young women has lately been confined of a bastard child; the other has long been in a dangerous state of health—(Hear, hear)—and in this room (not ten feet square) are two beds tbr two young women, aged seven teen and twenty-two, and three youths, aged thirteen, fifteen, and twenty! 'another room, the father and mother; and in a third, another daughter, diseased, and of such dirty habits as to require a separate room." The author then proceeds:—No. 3. "In the third cottage are two families, an aged widow and a single woman, with bastard child— in all, seventeen souls. In the first division a widow, aged forty-five, with four children, from ten to nineteen years old, occupying two bed-rooms. In the second divi sion a widow, aged thirty-six, with eight children, from five to nineteen years old, occupying three bed-rooms and three beds, in one of which are three youths, aged twelve, four teen, and seventeen. The aged widow occupies a small bed room, with fire-place ; and the young woman with a bastard child, in another bed-room without a fire-place." The author then, speaks of similar scenes at Tarrant Hinton, which be-' longs to • Mi. George Bankes, M.P.—(Hear, bear)—where one • cottage is occupied by the following persons :—" A father, mother, married daughter and her husband, an infant, a blind box of sixteen, and two girls, OBSTRUCTION TO THE NAVIGATION UNDER LONDON- Mr. COPE represented that s very serious obstruction to the navigation under one-u._ arehes of London bridge had recently been formed, and he - was anxious to know, for the sake of the public, who were by such nuisance subjected to danger, as well as to inconvenience, whether the Navigation Committee had taken any mea sures for the removal of it? Mr. HICKS (the Chairman of the Navigation Com mittee) said, .the attention of the Committee had been attracted to the obstruction, which had not been coun tenanced by any of the authorities of the City. Ap plication had teen made to the. Committee by the body who subsequently caused it to be made, but a refusal was the consequence, as the inconvenience was at once foreseen. The body he alluded to persevered notwith stinding the objection. He could, however, assure the Court; that the impediment would not be of long con tinuance. - The Loan MAYOR stated that the Navigation Com mittee had taken the matter into their most serious con sideratiOn, and had sent to him a copy of resolutions to which they had agreed, to the effect that three of the piers, close, to the bridge, had be e n carr i e d ou t muc h further than was justified by the directions issued. He only waited for the Report of the Water-bailiff to pro ceed at once to remedy the evil.—(Hear, hear.) His LORDSHIP presented a letter from 'Mr. Pindar, the grandson of Mr. Daniel Pindar, a former member of the Court, requesti ng th a t h e m i g h t 'be allowed to take a copy of the portrait of his grandfather, which had been presented to the Court by the family. The COURT unanithously consented, upon the motion of Sheriff Moon, to permit Mr. Pindar to take the copy of the' portrait in Guildhall _ Upo'n the motion of Mr. Thrice the report of the Navigation Committee, recommending that Mr. Page be , allowed, upon thepart of the Government, to havelaccess to ancient plans of the River Thames, was unanimously agreed to. REGULATIONS FOR STEAMERS NEAR THE DOCHY4RDS OF Mr. limo brought up, a Report from the Land Com mittee,, It stated that, by. the direction of the Lord Mayor, there had been laid before them several commu nications from • the Lords of the ••Admiralty, wherein serious complaint was made that merchant steamers were in the habit of navigating the river at Woolwich inside of the Government moorings (between them and the . Dockyard), whereby great risk of danger arose from the ignited particles from the funnels descending on the wharfs, within the limits of the present Dockyard, where large quantities of combustible and inflammable materials were frequently deposited; that notice had been issued to such steamers to desist from repeating such conduct without avail; and the Committee therefore recom mended the adoption of a by-law inflicting a penalty of 101., upon every steam• vessel which should approach within 350 feet of her Majesty's Dockyard or arsenal. The Report was agreed to unanimously, and the by law was passed. '; ~~«~ occupying one bed-mom !" (Other such 'eaSei wet. also quoted by Mr. Lambert.) To talk,. then, said he (Mr. Lambert) of Prussia or Ireland, while scenes of a si milar character were at their own doors, was childish, for such scenes of misery and distress and shame were before their own eyes —scenes which were a disgrace to a Christian coun try, and were attributable only to nionopoly-,(Cheers):—for the corn -laws kept up high prices, and made labour too scarce. Under all circumstances, therefore ; he did it think they deserved the taunts of being called Leaguers," for what was the real cause of their interference? Nits it not the misery and poverty of the country.?...-(Cheers.).: Humble, therefore, as his services might be, he rejoiced. that : thay•were acceptable and so highly approved of.—(Cheersa - Izi„degpite of all the exertions of the enemy, he had no thought that the Anti-Corn-law League would relax its exertions, and, wh,tt was more, he firmly believed that success would -ultimately attend its efforts. Monopoly must fall ; its doom was sealed ; and therefore it was idle to despair because success had not yet attended their endeavours.—(Cheers.) Sir Robert Peel could not advocate a fixed duty, nor Lord John .Russell a sliding scale.-(Cheers.) The future hides in it good.hope and sorrow. e press still onward, nought That abides in it daunting us. Onward! (The speaker then sat down amid thunders of applause.) HENRY COOPER, Esq. then proposed the health of the Hon. Edward . Bouverie, which was drank with great applause, and one cheer more. Mr. N. V. SunnEv then proposed the health of the Chairman,.who was, he.said, Chief Magistrate at the time when the Reform Bill passed. The CHAIRMAN in returning thanks said he, as. a practical agriculturist, was convinced that farmers- could' not realise any benefit under the present boasted protection.—(Cheers.) Mr. LAMBERT, then proposed the health of Mr. John Dawkins, the Secretary of the Salisbury Branch of the Na tional Anti-Corn-law League, for his very valuable services and zeal in the cause. Mr. DAWKINS said, he thought the compliment paid him was premature; but for the future, he would.•endeavour to merit that honour which had been done him. Mr. Durkin then handed to Mr. Lambert .an , Address which had beeu written by the Secretary at the instance of the ,non-electors to the liberal burgesses, adding that no printer in Salisbury could be found to publish it r! • Mr. Lambert then read this document, which is as fol lows : THE CHARITY CALLED THE CITY KITCHEN. Mr. BOWER brought up the Report of the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee, to which it was referred to take into consideration the petition from the Associa tion for the Relief of the Poor of the City of London and the parts adjacent, for pecuniary assistance in aid of the funds. It stated, amongst many other facts, that during the season ending 27th of March, 1843, the Association delivered to poor applicants 30,290 bushels of &gas, and 424.0601b5. of potatoes ; and during the present season, to the 15th of February, 12,237 bushels of coals, and 171,3181b5. of potatoes; and, in consequence of liberal donations of the Court, and of several *benevolent parties, the price charged to the poor for 84Ibs. of the best coals and 141bs. of the best potatoes, was reduced last year from ninepence to the low charge of sixpence, and the coals and potatoes were delivered to the poor recipients who lived within the City free of all expense, at their own habitations, which arrangement had proved very beneficial, but caused great additional expense to the Institution. That the receipts of the Association last year amounted to 2,557/. 10s. 7d., and the expenditure to 2,401/ 16s. Bd., and that there were at the bankers, when the petition was presented, 1,0101., comprising nearly all the subscriptions of the current year, of which 4551 had been since paid for coals and potatoes, and much larger purchases of these articles must be made to provide for the tickets issued for the poor, and for more coming in. That the Association hoped to issue.the same number of tickets as last year, which would require a further outlay of 700/. for coals, and 3901. for potatoes. That the free delivery already cost 2181., and would in volve a further outlay of 230/., besides the expense of printing and other expenses, in return for which several sums, amounting together to 1,1004, the Association ex pected by the sale of tickets to realise only about 4501 The Report concluded with recommending the grant of the sum of 2001 A discussion took place which, on account of the con versational noise in the Court, it was impossible to hear distinctly. Mr. ANDERTON objected to the management of the charity, by which the poor were deprived of a great deal of the advantages intended and expected by the benevo lent contributors. He condemned the machinery by which, he said, the poor were obliged to pay out of the aliowance a much larger per tentage than was received by tradesmen for their goods ; and he advised a re modelling of the plan, for the purpose of extending the charity, instead of permitting it to be swallowed up by an injudicious expenditure. Mr. Lorr said that no public charity could, it was well known, be carried on without expense, and the City kitchen was certainly regulated by a most active and discriminating zeal for the benefit of the poor objects. One of the leading features of the new arrangements was the free delivery of the articles to the poor, and the recipients were most grateful for a change which pro tected them from the plunder to which they had been subjected from persons wh o d e p r i ve d th em o f t h e i r money and their tickets. Mr. R. TAYLOR said the question was , _ whether good was done by the charity tantamount to the expense in curred. Now he was given to understand that by the delay the poor experienced in waiting for nine penny worth. of coals they were losers of sixpence. Mr. Lori' declared that such a statement was part of a system of calumny to which the charity had been ex posed for some time. Mr: PEWTRESS thought that much good might be in troduced by a more ingenious syStem of management, calculated to reduce the expenditure. The cost might, he was of opinion, be reduced five per cent. Deputy CORNET said the present cost was less than five per cent. He strongly commended the whole plan upon which the charity was conducted, and argued that any change Would be a change for the worse. The Report was then agreed to. It was, after some discussion, referred to a Committee to consider and report whether any, and what addition should be made to the salary of Edward Bullock, Esq., in respect of his services in the Central Criminal Court. After the transaction of some business of no public interest, the Court adjourned. R. O'CONNELL.—EFFECTS OF THE TRIAL.---The following address (says the Brighton Guardian) has been handed round for signature in Chichester, a cathedral city, be it remembered, in a part of England celebrated for its at tachment to Protestantism. It tends to show how much the prosecution of Mr. O'Connell has exalted him in the estima tion of the people of England :—" To Daniel O'Connell, Esq. Sir—Permit us, undersigned inhabitants of the city of Chi chester, to express our admiration at the manly way in which you have asserted the rights of your native country, and at the rare union of patriotic zeal and Christian moderation dis played by you in the influence you have exercised over the large masses of your fellow-subjects who have confided their interests to your care. Without intending in the most distant way to hint how far we may agree with or differ from you in your political or religious opinions, we feel ourselves deeply Interested in the verdict just obtained against you, as we can not but think that if the interpretation put by your accusers en what you have justly styled the ' cabalistic' word conspi racy should be confirmed, the liberties of Englishmen will be as much endangered as they would have been had the doc trine of constructive treason, attempted to be established in the year 1794 against Messrs. Hardy, Tooke, and others, by the then Attorney-General, Sir John Scott, not been repu diated by an English jury : and we cannot but regret that an Irish jury, having had such a bright example of real patriotism and exalted philanthropy before them, had not possessed discernment sufficient to follow it. Under what ever further difficulties in which your noble conduct may in volve you, you will have, we are fully aware, the best support in the testimony of conscience ; but in addition ? we wish to assure you of our cordial sympathy and esteem." Other tome in England will probably imitate this example. ADDRESS. From the Non-Electors of Salisbury to the Liberal Bur gesses of St. Martin's and Saint Thomas's Wards in this City, " Fellow-Citizens,—The contest on the occasion of the re cent municipal elections have afforded you the opportunity of displaying the high principle which has put our. yictorious opponents to the blush, and rendered us under the obligation of thus tendering to you 'our most sincere and heartfelt thanks. "`You have acted manfully and nobly, and though you have only fulfilled-your duty, you have done so under such circumstances as to confer an honour on our common.. cause, "and yourselves in connection with it, in the estimation of every honest _man. When those who from their previous professions, their stations in society, and their comparative independence, ought to have-led you on to victory, deserted their standen,l and sheltered themselves under the false,ex cuse--" expediency," you, the men who depend for the means of supporting _yourselves and famili es o n th e precarious profits of business, boldly fought your own battle, and though defeated, still remain unconquerable. " We would urge upon you the necessity of standing the ground so firmly maintained, and persevering in that course which must ultimately end in success. -Yon will be perse cuted, but you will receive the reward of honesty, a contented mind; and should your faithfulness incur even tb,e, extreme penalty—poverty, be assured that those men who may be the authors of it cannot embitter that glorious feast, which the actions of a righteous man continually present before him. " At the same time that we urge upon Tou the necessity of persevering in the paths of duty and Justice, we would not fot get that the result of your conduct will-equally affect yourselves and us in common with the whole, nation ; we cannot be unconscious that, if you fall, we fall in:conse quence; we therefore deem it our duty to unite, as a body, to support thOse who may be punished by unprincipled men, whose contracted ideas cannot conceive a duty so exalted as the good of society apart from personal advantage. "Though we - cannot individually command opulence suffi cient to offer you the same base compromising terms which our opponents would have you to imagine at their command, yet we flatter purselves that our number is so much greater than their's, as to enable us to defy comparison. And let us not be misunderstood. -We scorn to offer our united pa tronage as a hribe, but we hold it up, as an indemnity to,the present persecuted. honest man." Signed on behalf of the meeting of- non-electors, held at the Wheat Sheaf Inn. this 21st Feb., 1844, W. H. ELKINS, Chairman. The reading of this document elicited great applause. Other speeches followed, and the meeting separated at thirty-five minutes past twelve, A.m., with the National Anthem, which was sung by the whole company. AFFAIRS - OF OTAHEITE. • FRENCH CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES. SITTING OF FEU, 29. The motion of M. Came being the first order of the day, brought together great crowds. After some routine business, M. Came mounted the tribune and said, the Chamber, in 1842, had been divided. in its opi nions relative to the new colonies. Some regarded them as useless and dangerous acquisitions. Others, again, regarded them as valuable. This opinion was formed between the two extremes, and what should now influence the Chamber in maintaining the French flag in the Society Islands .was a sen timent of national honour. The French flag luul been planted on the soil of the Pacific, and it should not .be withdrawn. The Honourable Deputy then read the_ various documents laid, on the table, and continued to state that Queen Pomare, led away by the presents -.which she had received from the English Government, and by the instigations of that Government, had refused to abide by the treaty ofthe protectorate of September 18. The diffi culty which had arisen had been laid.to the fault of a Crown. He should be , curious to know whether . the French flag had ever been removed. . _ Admiral de Mackau here rose, and said that the flag of the protectorate, consisting of the old flag of Otaheite .and the French tricoloured flag united, had remained hoisted over the island during the fourteen months which followed the conclusion of the treaty of the 9th of. September, 1842. The Queen had besides a fancy flag Hying over her residence, on which figured, not a closed crown, but a crown of the most inoffensive nature, for it was formed of interwoven leaves of the cocoa-nut tree; and the only difference between M. Du petit Thouars and the Queen was, that the former required that she should substitute for those cocoa-nut. leaves_ either red or white stars.—(Laughter.) M. de Caine next resumed, and proceeded to justify the susceptibility of the Admiral, and his indignation at not see ing unfurled on the Royal residence the flag which he had left there a year before. He then blamed the conduct of Mi nisters, who waited ten days before publishing their dis avowal, and contended that it had been evidently an act dictated by the English Government. M. Guizot, after repelling the charge of having yielded to a foreign influence, described the real position of France at Otaheite in virtue of the treaty of the 9th of September, 1842, by which the Admiral had merely and provisionally accepted, in the name of Bing Louis Philippe, the Protectorate of the Society . Islands. On receipt of that document the. Minister of Marine, he said, had forwarded instructions, on the 28th of April, 1843, to the Admiral and to M. Braid, the Governor of the Marquesas, and " Commissioner" of the King at Otaheite, from which it would be seen that the latter was recommended to have a perfect understanding with the Queen and the Chiefs on all domestic affairs, and to attend to the strict execution of the treaty. They had received no instruction calculated to justify the measure to which the Admiral hid had recourse. After signing the treaty, the Admiral repaired to the western coast of America, and was absent an entire year. During his absence the English missionaries hid exerted themselves to prevail on the Queen and the Chiefs to elude the exe cution of the treaty. They had been abetted *in their intrigues by some of the naval officers of the British station. In the mean time, however, the English Government having notified to France that it would not oppose the establishment of the French in the Society Islands, the English missionaries and officers, who had acted as they did, because they-were ignorant of the intentions of their Government, no sooner heard of this decision, than they altered their course. Cap tain Nicholas, who commanded a British frigate off Papaiti, and had countenanced the proceedings of the missionaries, had been recalled by his Admiral six weeks before the return of M. Dupetit Thouars, who found off the island the Dublin frigate, whose captain, by his peaceable demeanour, gave him no subject of complaint. The Admiral had no difficulty to encounter which could not have been surmounted, without having recourse to force, by a little moderation and wisdom. Queen Pomare and the chiefs did not resist the execution of the treaty, and no obstacles thereto had been raised by the English. The Admiral had committed an egregions errorstarting the question of th e fl ag , an d deported himself is ther with prudence nor wisdom through Ont the affair. There were then three banners unfurled on Otaheite—the trico loured flag, the flag of the protectorate,- and the personal or domestic flag of the Queen, which she had a right to hoist in virtue of her sovereignty,. which she had not abdicated by the treaty. The Admiral had a right to demand the execu tion of the treaty, whether she had signed it voluntarily or under the impression of fear, and he was not justified in tak ing forcible possession of her dominions.: Under those cir cumstances, the Government conceived that the Admiral had exceeded his powers, and did not hesitate to disavow him. There was nothing in the Instructions addressed to hirh or to M. Bruat, nor in the facts or Circumstances in which they found affairsat Otaheite, to justify the military occupation of the Society Islands. No plea of necessity., utility, or jus tice, could be invoked to justify that act. M. Guizot vindi cated himself against the charge, of having yi e ld e d on this occasion to the injunctio ns of England. He denied that `such had been the case, declared that the resolution of the Cabinet had been spontaneous, and adopted before entering into any communication on the subject with the British Governinent, and officially, positively, and completely denied all assertion to the contrary. They had acted with the same independence which had presided at the decision of the British Cabinet when the latter refused to sanction the taking possession of the Sandwich Islands. The French Cabinet had not heen in fluenced by what had been said on the subject of Otabeite in the British Parliament. It was a calumny 'which he indig nantly repelled. He felt proud to have re-established the good understanding with England, and exerted hiniself in maintaining it, but it was at the cost of no sacrifice. His great object had invariably been to maintain friendly relations and a cordial understanding•with Great Britain, but he had, nevertheless, been guilty of no act of weakness, nor subscribed to a concession to secure her good-will. M. Billault, who.succeeded M. Guizot, Complained of the insu2iciency of the documents communicated by the Minis ten and expressed surprise at th e A dmiral only devoting th e few lines produced to the account of so iinportant'aii event as the occupation of Otaheite. • Admiral de Mackau here - interrupted M. Billault,and de clared, on his honour, that the dispatches deposited in the archives of the House were the only, ones he had received by the Elizabeth whaler. M. Billault next resumed, and was le ft speaking..`; PlB.

The meeting was most numerously attended; and, in the absence of M. W. "Attwood, Esq., the president, Mr. Kenneth presided. The Report' set forth that the funded stock amounted to 1,75 W. ; the subscriptions and donations of the past year n including the balance in the banker% bands, the produce of he thiatrioal benefit' in October, last, &c., amounted to 4801. 6s.

The anniversary festival of the Royal Humane Society took place on Wednesday, at the Freemasons' Tavern. Lord Morpeth, one of the Vice-presidents, was to have taken the chair, but being prevented by the critical state of the Earl of Carlisle's health, Sir Edward Codrington fulfilled the duties of the office very ably. After dinner the usual toasts were proposed, and several of them were responded to by gentlemen present. According to the custom practised by the Society, honorary medallions were distributed to those gallant persons who, during the past year, had distinguished themselves in special acts of courageous humanity. Upon this occasion there were several interesting cases, and the presentation of the medals and the graceful compliments conveyed by the Chairman to the recipients formed unques tionably the most gmtifyirig circumstances of the evening. The individuals Ivho thus tame entitled to the public thanks were—thZ* Rev. Dr. butler, Dean of Peterborough ; Sir Walter Riddell, Bart.. Mr. H. S. Polehampton, Captain Corbin, Mr. Edwards, an d M r. Whitehead. Dr.Butler— upwards of seventy years of age—in the January of last year, plunged into the Grand Junction Canal, near Northampton, and brought out a woman who had precipi tated herself into it. The other gentlemen had signalised themselves in similar heroic acts ; and, in each case, had succeeded in preserving human life. The little narratives which accompanied the delivery of the official thanks, and the speeches of the intrepid men who were the themes, were heard with unaffected pleasure by the company, and they made many demonstrations of satisfaction during the pro gress of the business. Subsequently, some 30 or 40 people — men, women, and children —who had been rescued from death by the Society's intervention, marched slowly round the room to the moaning accompaniment of the organ, an exhibition which might have been spared, for the associations it occasioned were anything but agreeable. The subscrip tions were considerable, amounting, as we understood, to nearly 9004 including the twentieth donation of the Duke of Sutherland of 1004 20 guineas from the Chairman , and several sums varying from five to ten guineas each. Sir George Staunton, Sir Joh n Croft, Sir John Stodart , and Mr. Serjeant Andrews were among the company present. This Society has upon the str engt h o f vo l untary subscriptions alone effected a vast deal of good during the 70 years of its existence—upwards of 15,000 lives having been saved by its timely interference within that period I COURT OF SEWERS FOR WEST MINSTER. Yesterday a Court was held at the Commissioners' house, Greek-street, Soho-square, for the pufpose of hearing applications and transacting the usual business. The Secretary having read the minutes of the last meeting, and a Report of the proceedings since that time up to the present, the several sewers'-rate collectors were called in to render their accounts, when some few reductions were submitted to, and a great number: of summonses and warrants i ssue d against the defaulters. A number of applications were then made by persons for permission to run drains from various tenements, chiefly in the neighbourhood of St. John's-wood, Lisson grove,, and in the north part of the district of West-, minster, most of which were granted by the Court. In none of these applications was there the slightest point of interest, except to the parties immediately con cerned. TURNPIKE TRUSTS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sut,—A Bill, originating in the Upper House of Par liament, is to be brought in on the subject of " Turn pike Trusts." The late " Reform Act," in its operation, takes in many villages in the neighbourhood of large towns and cities, and they become part and parcel of the "bo rough." In many instances there are turnpike-gates in the intermediate spaces, which subject the inhabitants to the payment of toll in passing from one part of the borough to another. - These village's now being subject to the borough rates, should certainly be exempt from such toll. .In their former position there was no ground for complaint; it is therefore to be hoped (and, as I think, an act of com mon justice) that all turnpike-gates and toll-bars will be removed to outside the boundaries of the boroughs. Redland, near Bristol, "Feb. 28, 1844. .In the irktse of Commons, last night, Mr. Blewitt quoted - the following extract from Dr. Channing's works :—" To a man who looks with sympathy and brotherly regard on the mass of the people, who is chiefly interested in the ' lower classes,' England must present much which is repulsive. Though a monarchy in name, she is an aristocracy in fact ; and an aristocratical caste, however adorned by pn vate virtue, can hardly help sinking an infinite chasm between iteelf and the multitude of men. A privileged order, posses °ovemment chi e fly ex i sts, an d and that for th em th e no bl eman sing the chief power of the State, cannot b u t ru l e i n t h e spirit of an order—cannot respect the mass of the people— coanagnhott to o fe be el a th dm at in f is or ter th e r holds his rank as a trust. The condition of the lower orders at the present moment is a mournful commentary on British institutions and civilisation. The multitude are depressed in that country to a degree of ignorance, want, and misery, which must touch every heart not made of stone. In the civilised world there are few sadder spectacles than the con trast now presented in Great Britain, of unbounded wealth and luxury, with the starvation of thousands and tens of thousands, crowded into cellars and dens without ventilation or light—compared with which the wigwam of the Indian is a palace—misery, fantine, brutal degradation in the neigh bourhood and presence of stately mansions, which ring with gaiety and dazzle witti pomp and unbounded profusion, shock us as no other w retchedness does; and this is not an accidental, but an almost necessary effect of the spirit of impressio n on thi s mass aristocracy and the sprit of trade acting int ense l y t oge th er .
