The Bishop of LONDON presented upwards of ninety petitions ;to the House of Lords against the Dissenters' Chapel; Bill, and expressed his film con viction 'that the ariendments made in the Commons would not dO away with the mischievous tendency of the measure. It is a great rarity to find the Wool sack deserted by the bench of Bishops. Lord BROUGHAM . pottpined the second reading of the Privy Council Bill fill Monday. This Bill has been so Joni in 'abeyance, that the public thought it was given u,o. The. Marquis - of CLANIIICARDE moved for certain returns relatia se: to the manner in which the Poor-law Commissioner:bad carried out the Act for providing reliCf,-to the vt=in 'retinal '"teri few ukirds from the Duke of WELLINGTON, the ag.' reed to, and the House adjourned. In t he - Cormu g i gi alrief discussion took place re lEive*the z%‘.l kembers to vote on Bills in ments, and neither Mr. GLADSTONE nor Lord STAN LET could refute them. After speeches from Mr. WARBURTON, Mr. BRIGHT, Sir ROBERT PEEL, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the Bill was read a third time. The House went into Committee on the Bank Charter Bill, when the principal clauses were agreed to and the House resumed. The Dissenters' Chapels Bill was postponed ti to-day. The House adjourned at Half-past One. After two nights' discussion, remarkable for no speech of any particular moment, with the exception of that delivered by Lord Homes on Tuesday, who gave utterance to some weighty and significant truths, which will not be speedily forgotten by those who heard, and those who read them, the debate on the corn-laws was last night brought to a close, when the majority against Mr. VILLIERS'S motion was 204. This, it must be confessed, was a large majority, but when we come to consider the constitution of the present House of Commons, how completely it has surrendered its independence into the hands of Sir ROBERT PEEL, and how imperfectly it represents and gives expression to the wants and wishes of the vast mass of the people, we cease to be surprised at the triumph of the monopolist party, and are only the more confirmed in our con viction that these sort of triumphs cannot be of long continuance. The League has no reason to be dis mayed by the result of last night's division ; rightly considered, it has not in the slightest degree thrown back the cause which that great national confederacy has so much at heart, but will even have been pro ductive of good, if it shall be the means of stimu lating the free-traders to still further exertions. They must now see, that for some time to come at least, they have little to expect from Sir ROBERT PEEL and those who act according to his bidding. He told them distinctly last night—and in case there should be any misapprehension of his meaning, he twice repeated the assertion that it was not his intention to make the slightest alteration in the pre sent corn-law. " I prefer the principle of the Bill of 1842," he said, "to the principle of the Bill of the Noble Lord, and I have only to repeat the declaration which on the part of her Majesty's Government, I made at the commencement of the present session, that we do not intend, and that we have not intended, to diminish the protection which the existing corn-law gives to the agricultural in terests." In these few, but emphatic words, the PREMIER clearly throws down the gauntlet of defi ance to the League, and dares them to do their worst. He will not advance an inch nearer to them in the way of conciliation or compromise, but will maintain the position which he now holds. But not only this, in the conviction of his own strength, and the inability of the League to grapple successfully with him and force him to change his re solution, he actually taunts Mr. COBDEN and some other free-traders who supported him the other night on the Sugar Duties, with the vote which they gave on that occasion. " I hope," he sneeringly observed —and no man sneers with such a smiling, well-bred bitterness as the Premier—in reference to the empty state of the Opposition benches, at an early period of the evening, " I hope that the assistance which the Hon. Gentleman and his friends gave to me at my benefit the other night, has not been the cause of depriving them of a fuller audience." It is thus Sir R. PEEL acknowledges and repays the services which Mr. COBDEN—most ill-advisedly, as we must say—ren dered him a night or two since on a question in which the Government were most deeply interested, and on which, otherwise, they must have sustained a most humiliating defeat ! Henceforth, we suspect, the Hon. Member for Stockport will be cautious how he applies his shoulder to the wheel, in order to lift the State-waggon out of the mud, seeing that his as sistance is taken quite as a matter of course, and is re paid only by a quiet supercilious indifference. We have said that Lord Howicx.'s speech was the only really remarkable one that was made during the discussion, It was indeed eminently so, if for nothing more than these important truths :—" All experience proved," said his Lordship, " that if justice were too long withheld, more than justice would be demanded, and he thought there were significant symptoms abroad tha we were not far from that end. It was true the Go- vernment was all powerful in that House, b u t h e _ _ should look with alarm to any sudden or violent dis. turbance of the political institutions of the country, and he warned the House that theirfoundations were sapped from the moment when the persuasion became general that those in whose hands power was placed, perverted that power to their own benefit, to the oppression of the rest of the community. That persuasion was fast gaining ground." There is much more truth in these remarks than it would suit the convenience of Sir ROBERT PEEL and his Conservative tools i(7.1 allow. The existence of Chartism, so general among the operative classes, if not quite so noisy as it has been ; the discontent of the agricultural classes made manifest in the wandering va garies of SWING, who, ,we believe, has now, with the torch in his hand, paid a visit to every county in England :—these, to say nothing of a hundred minor ones, are significant symptoms, which indicate the deep and growing discontent of the masses with the system of class legislation, and prove, a l so , th a t that • false and purblind system of legislation is, of neees• city, drawing, slowly indeed, but surely, to a close. We perceive that the Marylebone Vestry has set a becoming example to other similar bodies in the metropolitan districts. It has manifested a consistent and spirited resistance to the most un-Christian and eminently un-English mania of the Right Hon. the Home Secretary for pulling down the existing prisons of our capital, and re-constructing them expressly with a view to adapt them to the purposes of soli tary confinement, on his " model plan." Our readers are aware of the reckless spirit of innovation in which Sir JAMES GRAHAM has pressed upon the county and municipal magistracies, throughout the kingdom, the adoption of his favourite " silent system nostrum." He has urged it month after month, day after day, utterly "regardless of the expense" (as Mr. GEORGE Roams would say) which his project may entail on the locality it is to be inflicted upon, and still more regardless of the feelings of those unhappy victims who are to be experimented on by the terrors of that system. The objections Which the Marylebone Vestry have expressed to the plan rega r d th e j o bbi ng cha racter of that plan ; its immoderate expense ; the inequitable distribution of that expense ; and, above all, the stupendous inhumanity of the punishment itself. On all these grounds we earnestly exhort the magistracy of this kingdom to resist, by every con stitutional means that may be available to them, th e baneful application of the Government on this subject. And first, as to the character of "a job" attaching to the scheme for which Sir Jeuss so ostentatiously which they had a direct interest. Mr. ESCOTT cited a variety of instances against such a right, and moved a resolution to that effect. After some remarks, how ever, from different Members, the motion was with drawn. As there seemed to be some doubt, however, whether the standing orders of the House applied also to Committees, Mr. GLADSTONE moved that the rules of the House relating to the votes of Members having an interest in a question applies to Members in Com mittee. The resolution was adopted. Mr. COLQUHOUN gave notice, that on the motion for the third reading of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill, he would move that it should be read that day six months. In answer to a question from Mr. M. GIBSON, Sir JAMES GRAHAM Ea:d Le did not think it advisable to appoint a Special Commission to inquire into the causes of incendiarism in Essex, Suffolk, and Nor folk. A number of persons were already in custody charged with the crime of incendiarism, and as the ordinary assizes would commence in a short time, all the circumstances would be inquired into. Sir ROBERT PEEL, in reply to a question from Mr. 'VYSF, said that after the Counsel for the Crown had made their statement in the House of Lords, relative to the writ of error on the Irish State Trials, the motion of the lion. Member should come on upon a Government day. Lord ELIOT, in answer to a question from Mr. Ross, said he had received no information from the Lord Chancellor of Ireland that Mr. O'DaiscoLL had been reinstated as a Magistrate of Cork. On the motion, that the Sugar Duties Bill be read a third time, Mr. HAWES briefly addressed the House, for the purpose of showing that slavery existed in Java and China to as great an extent as in Brazil and Cuba. Mr. P. M. STEWART expressed similar senti- " From the Parliamentary return it appeared that the cost of every prisoner in the New Model prison was 40/, in consequence of the nature of the diet they were com pelled to give to support them under the solitary system." And another parishioner observed that— " Prisoners under sentence of seven years' transporta tion were placed there for a period of eighteen months, and what was the fact ? Why, that the authorities were compelled to give the wretched prisoners an extravagant dietary to prevent their constitutions sinking under the dreadful ordeal of solitary confinement for that period." Originally, it seems, the Government plan was still more wildly extravagant. It had been intended— " To extend this principle to the House of Correction and the Westminster Bridewell, and no less than 1,491 cells would have to be erected, the cost of which would entail upon the county an expense of some hundreds of thousands of pounds.—(Hear, hear.) The attempt to carry the report recommending this monstrous principle fortunately failed, and he (Sir P. Laurie) hoped it would be entirely defeated." The next point—tbe inequitable distribution of all the enormous expense inseparable from the design of Government—was clearly illustrated by several speakers : " Mr. G. Daniell said he had received from Sir B. Hall a return which showed that the assessment of Mid dlesex to the county-rate was upon a rental of some 7.000,0001., and Marylebone was called upon to pay con siderably above its proper share." We all know the enormous number of criminal prisoners at all times under confinement in the Metro politan prisons. Sir P. LAURIE showed that— " The proposed Bill would take three-fourths of these prisoners from Newgate, and bring them to trial at Clerkenwell at an enormous increase of expense to the county. " Mr. Biers said, if the plan was carried out as pro posed the cost of the prisoners at 401. each would entail on the county an additional expense of no less than 60,0001. annually.—(' Saamer) Marylebone was rated at one-eighth of the entire county-rate, and thus their additional share would be 8,000/. " Mr. Joseph considered that no public Board repre senting the feelings of the rate-payers ought tacitly to submit to the enormous increase likely to be inflicted on the county-rate."—(Hear.) So much for the matters of the jobbing involved in this scandalous scheme; the enormous expense to be incurred by it; and the arbitrary working of its unequal distribution. But we must once more direct attention to the atrocious inhumanity of the object which all this machinery is set in motion in order to carry out. What is this monstrous and superhuman penalty which our puny legislators presume to affix to crimes, the penal price of which the law of the land has already ascertained and fixed, by, as it were, a graduated, but plain, intelligible tariff of punish ments ? What is this " model system" to do ? What are the ends proposed by this gigantic establishment for the indefinite refinement of human agony, after its righteous infliction, to a certain and positive ex tent, by that law ? On what plea of constitutional, legal, or moral expediency, is the soul-and-mind-de stroying discipline invoked against those who, in the loss of their own personal liberty—in fine and amerce ment—in hard labour—perpetually or for various terms of years, are already undergoing those sen tences which the law deliberately subjects them to as the several specific atonements for their several specific offences ? Whatever the system was in tended to do, whatever the ends anticipated from it, whatever the pleas alleged in its justification, the results to which it tends are—idiotcy, and despair, and madness—suicide, or a more protracted but not less certain death. " That this model system," said the Magistrate before quoted, " That such a system was most inhuman had been fully established by the fact that three poor crea tures had already been sent from the New Model Prison to Bethlehem on account of solitary confinement pro dncing insanity." But will it be believed that parties are subject to this cruel infliction even before trial—under their still unremoved legal presumption of innocence ? " The size of the proposed cells were 11 feet by 7, and 9 ft et high ; but, he would ask, was it not monstrous that poor creatures, innocent or:guilty, before trial as wel as after trial, should be immured in these solitary dun. geons." And is it thus, that, in a free country, the heartless administration of mere official pedantry is permitted to assume the terrible attributes of that vengeance !' which is the LORD'S ?" To attempt to raise that eternal veil which shrouds the secrets of the human heart from all perceptions but those of its CREATOR, and to apportion human punish ment to the guilt of intentions which human judgment can infer only from responsible acts ? Whether most to deprecate the folly or the wicked ness, the presumption or the stupidity, of a system like this, we know not. The most direct, positive, and peculiar evidence of the diviner nature of man, as compared with other animals, is surely the distinctive faculty of speech—that godlike faculty by which he expresses his affections, his emotions, his hopes, bis fears, gives embodiment to the creations of his mind, language to his passions, effect to his will. With a tyranny more execrable than the brutal violence wherewith an oriental despot tears out the tongues of the victims destined to become the silent instruments of his future crimes, the concoctors of this model system make the prisoner himself at once the instru ment and victim of a similar privation. Through a long and maddening night of years he is forbidden to speak. The " human voice divine" shall escape only in his permitted groans, or those frantic execrations of despair that will but bring down aggravated in flictions on his devoted head. Caged like a wild beast in his dreary den, which Sir J. GRAHAM, with feli citous mockery, calls a " sleeping cell," one of two moral annihilations await him. If of a rough and brutal nature, he indulges his imagi nation to an unknown, and therefore unrestricted extent in the most hideous pollutions of a prurient imagination. If of a more contemplative or cul tivated mind, he broods over his intolerable isolation and voiceless weariness, till, goaded to madness by its long endurance he cherishes, with a maniac's per tinacity, an implacable, intense hatred to man and all his institutions, or rebels, in the accumulated bitter ness of his despair against the majesty and the dis pensations of GOD himself. Educated minds, which have within themselves intellectual resources to feed upon, break down in hopeless, drivelling imbecility under the hideous infliction of such torture. Unin formed minds, destitute of all such aliment, degene rate into an appalling brutality, which imparts only additional intensity to their sensual appetites, and ungovernable fury to their vindictive passions. Such are the animals, once men, whom the transformation of your " model system" of prison discipline con sumes within its cells; or remits to the " incurable wards" of your madhouses ; or turns loose, at the expiration of their imprisonment, to vex and prey upon that society which has compelled them to be come monsters, by disowning them as men. Madrid journals of the 19th have been received. Most of them have articles on the proposed conces sions of Don CARLOS, alluded to in the House of Commons, and we are glad to find them in general opposed to the marriage of his son to the QUEEN. The Herald() gives the following account of the finan cial arrangements just concluded by M. MON : " Yesterday the arrangement between the holders of Treat sury-bills and the Minister of Finance was happily con eluded. The former accepted Three per Cents. at 35 per cent. in exchange for the bills to fall due, the liquidation of the ! contracts whence they arose taking place. This piece of news , proffers himself as sponsor. Sir PETER LAURIE, at the Marylebone Vestry meeting of Saturday last, described this prison -reconstructive scheme as " Concocted by the Government and the Chairman of the Middlesex Magistrates, to give the latter a salary, and carry out the obnoxious principle of solitary con finement to an extreme never before contemplated in this or any other civilised country." This is quite after Sir JAMES'S way. Whatever he does must be " a job." It' a repeal meeting at Clo - 17.2 tarf is to be watched, he must confer with a spy to have it reported "au secret," and for an accurately defined consideration. If intelligence be wanted in Downing -street as to the proceedings of some friend.• less foreigner, nothing so apropos to this great politi cal genius as a little Cabinet spy at the Pest-office, to break open his letters. So long as it is a job, dirty or not, it is put in hand without hesitation. Sir PETER alluded to the report which had been published by the Middlesex Magistrates since the last meeting of the Vestry. The obsequious Magistrates therein "Approved of the plan of the Government, that the whole of the New Prison should be pulled down, and have solitary, or, as Sir James Graham was pleased to term them, sleeping cells for prisoners erected." A whole paradise of jobbing must have opened on the rapt vision of the Right Hon. Secretary here. What patronage to exercise on the distribution of governors and sub-governors, inspectors, gaolers, housekeepers, wardens !

JUSTICE ERSKINE.— It was currently reported in Westminster Hall that Mr. Justice Erskine died yesterday. The repot is without foundation. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Last night will be long remembered in the anna l s o f her Majesty's Theatre as the night of the debut of Signor Moriani, the greatest tenor who has appeared on these boards for many a long day, and whose popularity, if we mistake not, will exceed even that of Rubini. The voice of Signor Moriani is the most astonishing we have ever heard; in clearness, depth, and power, it is equal to that of Donzelli in his best days; in expression and flexibility it is quite equal to that of Rubini; and in compass it is equal to both—that is to say Moriani's compass in the lower notes is quite as low as the compass of Donzelli, while in the upper notes he reaches as high as Rubini, and that in his natural voice. Strictly speaking Moriani has no falsetto, although his compass is quite as great as the compass of those who make a free use of their falsetto. Last night, for instance, in the character of Edgardo, in Lucia di Lammermoor, the character chosen for his debut, in the passage in the last scene— " Fra poco a me riaovcro," he begins with what in ordinary voices would be called a falsetto note, but he goes down, note by note, fairly into the pure voce di p e tt o w ith out the slightest break; so that what in other voices would be a falsetto note is in his a natural note. If he has therefore a falsetto voice, it is impossible to say where the natural voice ends and the falsetto voice begins. Endowed by nature with this wonderful organ, he has cultivated it to the highest pitch of perfection. Nothing can exceed the intensity of passion which he throws int o it s th r illi ng tones; and it is not is expressive tenderness and thrilling pathos alone that he is great. Indignation, rage, des pair, are equally at his command, and he i s as great an actor as he is a singer. His per son is fine and commanding, his features clas sical and expressive, and his dem eanour at once im passioned and majestic. Never had the h ero o f hi g h tragedy a more appropriate representative. When he came in in the last scene, dressed in deep mourning, and inveloped in his large mantle, we were forcibly struck by the resemblance which he bore to Sir Thomas Lawrence's portrait of John Kemble in the character of Hamlet. He is certainly the finest Edgardo we have ever seen. We prefer him even to Rubi n i. I n R u bi ni ' s performance we were astonished and delighted a t th e mar vellous tact whi c h h e ex hibited in avoiding the difficul. ties of the part; in Moriani's performance we are more astonished and more delighted' at the manner in which those difficulties are fairly met and con quered. He was called for at the conclusion of cich act, and when the curtain fell he had twice to make his appearance before the audience—a compliment which he appropriately acknowledged. He was admirably sup ported by Persiani, as Lucia, and F ornasar i , as E nrico. the performances were for the benefit of Perrot, and we were glad to see that the house was crowded to excess. We are sorry, however, to add, that in consequence of a severe strain of the leg, Parrot was unable to make his appearance, and in consequence the ballet of Zelia was curtailed of its fair proportions. HANOVER-SQUARE ROOMS. MADEMOISELLE JULIA HEINKE'S CONCERT. This concert took place on Wednesday evening, at her Majesty's Concert-rooms, Hanover-square. and a most delightful concert it was. _ Among the vocal performers we had Madame Castellan, Miss Duval, Madame de Manara, Mr. Weiss, and Signor Murros. The latter gentleman was deservedly encored in Donizetti's beauti ful romance, " Una furtiva lagrima," from L'Eli.sir d'Amore. Among the instrumentalists the fair beneficiaire herself performed Dohter's grand fantasia, from airs in Benedict's opera of the Gipsy's Warning, with great taste, and exhibited considerable powers of execution. She is a most promising artist, and does great credit to her instructor, Mr. Moscheles. The grand pianoforte concertanti, " Hommage a Beethoven," was magnifi cently given by Mademoiselle Julia Heinke, D. Men delssohn, and Mr. Moscheles. At the commencement of the second part, Herr Sachse performed a bravura on the trumpet. Tbis gentleman is the most extraordinary performer on the trumpet we have ever heard. The trumpet in his hands becomes a solo instrument, capable of every variety of expression. His performance is certainly most won derful, and not less pleasing than wonderful. The star of the evening, however, was Herr Gulomy, first violinist to the Emperor of Russia, who made his first appearance in this country last evening, and performed a grand fan tasia by Lipinsky, on airs from "La Cenerentola. ,, His performance was exquisite, there was no attempt at trickery ; everything was done in the most elegant, and at the same time in the most perfect, manner. He was superb—the sweetness of his tones exceeded any thing we have ever heard. He is one of the most legitimate violin performers we have ever heard. The concert altogether was one of the most delightful of the season. Mr. Christie paired, in favour of Mr. Villiers' motion, with Mr. Mackinnon, against it. contains the whole prospects of our country. The conversion of the floating debt into Three per Cents. yields from this day to the Government above 60,000,000 a month, with which it will not only be able to provide for the most press ing engagements of the Treasury, but also to assist the in dividuals to whom it is indebted, and who have had so much to suffer from our revolution. We also know that M. Mon thinks of settling with the San Fernando bank and the Cen tralization, provided their intentions be moderate. Lastly, yesterday the money required for the payment, in the French and English capitals, of the half-year's interest on the Three per Cents. due at the end of June, was transmitted to Paris. All these occurrences have exercised a favourable influence over the Madrid Exchange, and we think that our paper will reach, both in Spain and abroad, the rate it should have." The Barcelona journals state that the Secretary of the English Embassy had taken his departure for Paris and London, with important dispatches, in re ference to a modification of the present Spanish tariff. On the Madrid Bourse the Three per Cents. closed at 27/ for cash, and 28/ at 60 days, and the Five per Cents. at 20i for cash, and 20/ at 60 days. The Paris papers of Tuesday contain a telegraphic dispatch from Toulon, announcing that the fleet, under the command of the Princeps JOINVILLE, had set sail on Sunday, the 23d, for Oran. The squadron wa s composed of the three sail of the line, Suffren, Jem mapes, and Triton, the Belle Poule frigate of 60, Asmodeus man-of-war steamer, the steam-corvette Pluton, and the steamers Phare and Rubis. Twelve hundred troops; including, a company of engineers and three companies of marine artillery, have been embarked. Several regiments have received orders to march to Toulon to re-inforce the troops under General BUGEAUD, on the frontiers of Morocco. A Government journal thus describes the position occu pied by the French army in that quarter : " The camp of Lalla Maghania, at which Marshal Bugeaud now is, and before which the Morocco troops have twice come to give battle, is nine leagues from Tlemcen, six leagues from Ouchda, the first town in the kingdom of Morocco, and between two and three leagu es o f t h e front i er. The boun dary of the two States is well defined both by the topography of the country and historical records. The bad faith of the people of Morocco, and their insensate passion for making war against the Christians, have been their only motives fur their pretending to drive us to the left bank of the Tafus, five leagues back. This camp, established by General de LamoriciL•re, is defended by .a terraced inclosure, with flanking bastions, mounted with cannon. Within are barracks in timber-work for field hospitals, magazines, and offices for the staff. It forms the general depot of provisions, ammu nition, and stores, and is the rallying point for all the troops assembled on the frontier, amounting to between 8,000 and 9,000 men. This corps is composed of General de Lamori ciere's division, General Bedeau's brigade, and a brigade just brought by Marshal Bugeaud from Oran." On Monday, the motion of the Government for an nulling the vote carried on Saturday by a majority of 1 ; or rather, for delaying the further considera tion of the question, whether the rails on the Paris and Lyons Railroad, should be laid down by the State, was carried by a majority of 28, there being for the motion, 182, and against it, 154 ; and on Tuesday the Bill was passed. The Rouen and Nantes Railway Bill was also passed by a great majority, and the sum of 28,000,000 f. voted for forming the line. Several domiciliary visits were made on Sunday by the Paris police, on the ground that there was some plot in agitation, in favour of the Duke of BORDEAUX. The following is the account given of the affair, in the Carlist journal, the Quolidienne ; "On Sunday the police paid a visit to the office of the Charitable Society of St. Louis, and found there and carried off some prospectus indicating the conditions on which re lief may be obtained, and the books of accounts. To com plete their petty persecution they removed to, and still keep at, the Prefecture M. de Lepinois, the Secretary. At the same time the police made a descent at the house of Princ,• Gaston de Montmorency, wbo is absent from Paris, forced the locks of his furniture, and carried off the papers, his manu scripts, and a certain number of busts of Henri of France. Yesterday (Monday) a long search took place at the house of the Duke d'Lscars, who, with the Prince de Montmorency, is one of the protectors of the Charitable Society of St. Louis. The police seized the printed papers of the Society, some private letters, and a great number of pamphlets rela tive to the liberty of instruction, which is now, as every one knows, a very factious thi ng , an d, th ere f ore, the letters of the Bishop of Langres and the pamphlet of M. de Ravignon were seized, as necessary elements of the grand plot."

His Excellency Count de St. Aulaire is on the eve of de parting for Paris on leave of absence. His Excellency's absence will not exceed six weeks, during which Count Jarnac will transact the diplomatic duties of the embassy as chargé d'affaires. Lord Palmerston, at his seat, Broadlands, and Sir William Heathcote, at Hursley Park, will entertain select parties during the approaching agricultural meeting at Southampton. Anti CEL This day being the sixth anniversary of the, co ronation of her most gracious Majesty, Queen Victoria, it will be observed as a holiday at the Stamp-office, Excise, Custom-house, the St. Katherine's, London, West, and East India Docks; and at the different Government dockyards at Deptford, Woolwich, Chatham, Sheerness, Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Pembroke. The Court-martial ordered by the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to be held on First Lieutenant Frederick John White, of the Woolwich division, after a protracted sitting has been dissolved, and the charge and finding of the Court, with the remarks of the Lords Commissioners of the Admi ralty, promulgated in general orders. The finding is as fol lows :—" The Court having maturely weighed and considered all that has been adduced in support of the prosecution, as well as what has been brought forward on the defence, are of opinion that the prisoner First Lieutenant Frederick John White is not guilty of the charge preferred against him, and we therefore acquit him." Lieutenant White is a very clever artist, and the public are indebted to his spirited sketches for the Chinese scenery in Burford's Panorama in Leicester square. The main charge against him was for creating a disturbance in the streets. The Council of the National Complete Suffrage Union met at Birmingham, on Monday afternoon, iMr. Sturge in the chair. The Secretary read the reply from the Loyal Repeal Association of Ireland, to the address recently issued to the people of Ireland to that body by the Complete Suffrage Union. The Council resolved earnestly to recommend to the friends of political freedom in every part of the kingdom, to devote their immediate and most careful attention to the state of the registration in their respective localities, and snake every effort to get complete suffragists o n th e roll. The annual entertainment in aid of King's College Hos pital was celebrated on Wednesday at the Freemasons' Tavern, when a numerous party of the friends and supporters of the institution sat down to a well-served and well-cooked dinner. The chair was taken by Lord Sandon, who was sup ported by Dr. Lonsdale, the Bishop of Lichfield, and upwards of one hundred gentlemen who are connected with the King's College Hospital. At the meeting of the Scotch Corporation, held on the same day, the treasurer communicated that the amount of the proceeds of the Caledonian ball was 553/. 195., and he proposed that two-thirds should be given to the Caledonian Asylum, and one-third to the Corporation, which was agreed to. The Committee for the increase of insurance reported that they had ;insured the picture of Mary, Queen of Scots (which was painted by a French artist, and for which a large sum was offered by the Scot's College at Paris many years ago), for 2001.; the picture of King William IV. for 3001 : that of Mr. James Kienier, the first Master of the Corpora. tion, for 20/. ; and the remainder of the pictures for 101. each MONEYAND COMMERCIAL NEWS.

Australasia Bank New Shares were 21 premium. The following information has been sent us from a respectable quarter.— " A French gentleman, of the name of Bergasse, has entered into a contract with the provincial authorities of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, to introduce six hundred Euro pean agricultural labourers into that province, for the purpose of cultivating the sugar-cane, and producing the sugar by an improved method, as practised in the Isle of Bourbon. Germans, Belgians, and Portuguese are flocking to that empire for the same purpose. Here, then, will be a distinction between slave-grown and free grown sugar coming from one and the same country. Will the Government provide, for such a ease in their differential Act now under discussion ? " Tlte Sun of Last Night.) A very extensive business was done in Caton, at Liver pool, yesterday, and, in most instances, at an advance of Ad. per lb. on the rates of Friday last. Speculators took 4,000 bales, and the total sales were 12,000 bales, viz., 1,000 Surat, 3d. to 34d. ; 600 Perham, 53 to 6A ' • 200 Maranham, sd. to 51d. ; an d th e res t A mer i can, at sd. to 6*d.

The result of the debate in the House of Commons on the motion of Mr. Villiers, relative to the corn-laws, has given great satisfa c ti on t o th e sma ll c li que o f monopolists which still remains among the mercantile classes, and is a source of deep regret to the many, who are anxious to see the mer cantile interests of Great Britain extended, the only way in which "ships, colonies, and commerce," an be materially ad vanced. The exposition of the mover of the resolutions ought to have had, it is considered, more weight with the second branch of the Legislature. Among the many subjects of importance now before the House of Commons is one relating to the future mode of con ducting Savings' Banks, and a point upon this subject is raised which seems, from a Morning Contemporary, to have led to much difference of opinion. We refer to the clause render ing it imperative that, once a year, the depositors should be compelled to send in their receipt-books for examination. This is a most wholesome clause, as it ensures the verifica tion by the Managers that all sums paid in have been duly received, and it would afford a complete check to any mal - appropriation of money by clerks, &c. Nor can it be successfully contended that the privacy, which is a point as respects individuals who are depositors, would at all be infringed, as the Managers have, as a matter of course, a pe riodical inspection of all the accounts. There is, therefore, safety on the one hand, and privacy as secure as now, on the other. As to the fear that the entries made in the de positors' names might, on the annual inspection, b e tampered with, among competent judges, the remark does n o t require any consideration. Any such step would inevitably lead to instant detection. It is suggested that the books should be enclosed in sealed envelopes, and addressed only to the Managers of the Savings' Banks themselves. Thus per fect security would be obtained that the items contained in them would not be altered. .'here was not any arrivals of interest from the colonies, or elsewhere, this morning. It is satisfactory to state that the commercial markets are FOREIGN. On Monday the King and Queen of the French again visited the Exhibition of National Industry, and were re ceived with the usual loyal demonstrations. The King passed a very long time in the machine-room, examining the productions, and conversing with some of the manufacturers. Their Majesties left at five for the Tuileries, and at six re turned to Neuilly. M. Thiers has been appointed reporter to the Committee on the Education Bill, by a majority of 6 votes to 3. This has given great satisfaction to the parties who support the claims of the University-. We find the following account of the loss of the Manchester steamer in Galignani's Messenger of Tuesday :—" The Paris steamer, which left Hamburgh on the 22d inst., at six in the morning, arrived at Havre on the 24th, at nine in the morning, after a passage of fifty-one hours. Prince d'Anhalt was on board on his way to Paris. This vessel brings ac counts of a violent storm, which took place on the 16th and 17th at the mouth of the Elbe. The Manchester steamer, p!ying between Hull and Hamburgh, went to pieces, and lost every soul on board, on the rocks of Heligoland, where the Cadiz, a Spanish vessel, was also cast away, but the crew of the latter was saved. The Manchester was one of four packets plying regularly between Hull and Hamburgh. The heat at Paris had somewhat abated. On Monday at two P.M. the thermometer stood a t 83 F a h ren h e i t. A Constantinople letter of the 7th, in the Malta Times, says :—" By the last accounts we have received of the Sul tan, his Majesty must be now at Mytilene—and in the course of a few days will return to the capital. His presence seems to have produced the most lively demonstrations of joy wherever he has been, and to have been hailed even w ith greater satisfaction y his Christian than his 211ussulman subjects." We find the following in the Phare d'Alexandrie of the 6th :—". For the last few days the Viceroy has been residing at the Palace of his Excellency Moharem Bey. He intends to return to town as soon as the sea-bathing season com mences. The Government steam-boat, the Raschid, left on the 25th of last month for Trieste. She had on board his Excellency Ismail Bey, second son of Ibrahim Pacha. The new measures which the Health-office have taken to stop the progress of plague, have been most successful, as since our last report we have only heard of 11 cases: the interior of the country still continues healthy. LAW AND POLICE. At the Westminster Sessions, John Williams, connected with a gang of notorious coiners, pleaded guilty to stealing a quantity of silver plate from the residence of Sir Edward L. Bulwer. The prisoner was sentenced to three months' im prisonment and hard labour. On hearing the sentence the prisoner exclaimed, "Not lagged yet, neither," and went laughing from the bar. A lad, named Sullivan, was charged, at Marlborough-street, with having stolen a quantity of geraniums and other orna mental shrubs from Kensington Gardens. The defendant was seen to get over the wall, and the plants were found in his possession. Fined 20s. or a month's imprisonment. At Union Hall, Ann Fendon Croisy, alias Pain, was brought up for re-examination, charged with defrauding several per sons, by representing herself a ward in Chancery, and en titled to considerable property. M r . Cottingham, having pe rused a letter which he had just received, on the subject of the prisoner's apprehension, said that the writer of the letter detailed circumstances, by which it appeared that the pri soner had robbed a poor woman at the east end of the town, who committed suicide, which latter event was alleged to be attributable to the scandalous treatment she had experienced at the hands of the prisoner. She was remanded. - COURT —1 11 .1188ION.4.7a&z. The Marquis of Exeter entertained a select circle at dinner on Wednesday, in Grosvenor-street.

The Duke and Duchess of Argyle entertained the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland and Lady Elizabeth Leveson Gower, Duke of Hamilton, Countess of Lincoln, Viscount Morpeth, and a distinguished circle, at dinner on Monday last. A small party assembled in the evening to meet Lady Eliza beth Leveson Gower, about to be married to the Marquis of Lorn. The Duke of Bedford arrived at the railway terminus, near Exeter, by the noon-day train on Saturday, and proceeded immediately with four post horses from Cockram's New Lon don Inn to Endsleigh Cottage, near Tavistock. The Duke and Duchess of Beaufort have issued cards for a grand entertainment to her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, on the 11th of the ensuing month, at Beaufort House. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE: TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY. THE LATE DERBY.

Hearne ; 2 R. Webb ; 1 H. Clements ; Robt. Marsh, coxswain. A gallant race succeeded, a fine start. The Albion, who had the Berks shore, appeared to lead by a trifle for a few seconds, when they became oar and oar. The Aquatic then drew slowly away from their opponents, but were again pressed hard by the Albion, who kept them at great labour the whole way, and shortened the trifling distance between them at coming in. The Aquatic won by a length only, amidst the most vociferous cheering. The Diamond Sculls, a presentation prize for gentlemen amateurs. . _ In the trial heats of theP;aling day it will be remem bered that there were four races and necessarily a correspond ing number of winners. Mr. Julius, of the Scullers' Club, who had defeated Mr. J. J. Pocock, of the Oxford Aquatic Club, however, declined the contest, and the race was left to the other three gentlemen. Mr. T. Bumpstead, Leander Club .... (pink) 1 Mr. Morgan, Christchurch, 0xf0rd..... (green) 2 Mr. Conant, St. John's, Oxford... (purple) 3 This was the greatest scullers' contest that has been wit nessed for a great length of time. Mr. Morgan had the Berks shore, and on the signal being given, the whole three started away at the instant. Mr. Morgan then had a trifling lead, but Mr. Bumpstead was soon alongside of him, and for a few strokes they were again abreast of each other. Mr. Morgan again drew a trifle in advance, but his opponent was in a minute abreast of him, and then led slightly. Alter nately the gentlemen led, until both became exhausted; and Mr. Morgain fouling his scull as he neared the bridge, did not appear to have power en o ugh left to r e pl ace it, and Mr. Bumpstead, who was almost level with him, by a last effort, contrived to row into the first place, and won by three quarters of a length only. It is almost unnecessary to add that both were much distressed. The Stewards' Challenge Cup, for gentlemen in four-oared most active. There were yesterday more public sales of pro duce brought forward than, we believe, on any one day for some years past. Business in Stocks is limited, and the delivery to-day of a large parcel of Reduced Three per Cent. Annuities, causes the market to be rather flat. The security mentioned is at 994 to i. Consols for the opening have been at 984 4. Ex chequer Bills are worth 725. to 745. ; and East India Bonds 945. to 965. prem. The Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. brings 102 to 1024. The announcement of the dividend on Spanish Bonds has not had the least effect upon prices, as there was within the last few days no further doubt upon the subject. The Threes were 354 to 4, and the Actives 234. Mexican Stock sup ports the improvement to 35 354, and the Deferred to 1544 ; Colombian Stock is steady at 14 to 134 ; Portuguese Con verted have been heavier at 464 ; Russian Bonds are at the full rate of 1184, and Dutch Two-and-a .Half per Cents. keep at 624 to 4. Business in the Railway Shares does not increase,_ but ge nerally prices seem steady :—Great Western are 474 to 481 ; Croydon, 44 ; Manchester and Birmingham, 64 ; South - Eastern, 13; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 14; and Paris and Orleans, 184 to 184 premium. Brighton are 31 ; North Mid land 6 to 61 ; and Midland Counties, 6 to 64 discount. , Lon don Joint-stock Bank are 24 to 24 premium.

Ross; 2. W. 111‘Kay ; 1. Wadh am ; Mr. A. Johnson, coxswain. The St. George's Club were the holders, but despite every effort, were unable to retain possession of the honorary distinction. For a few strokes only the crews were together, but the pulling on either hand was beautiful. The Univer sity boat gradually then went in advance, and won by nearly two lengths. The District Challenge Cup. The Windsor and Eton Boat Club (light blue)—Messrs. M. W. Long, stroke ; 3. G. Dodd ; 2. G. Long ; 1. S. Long ; James Neate, coxswain. The Britannia Club, Reading (pink and white)—Messrs, S. Wheeler, stroke ; 3. T. Atwell ; 2. W. Clayton ; 1. T. Berris ; Mr. Giles Ayres, coxswain. Throughout this was a closely contested race, in which it was difficult to determine which was the better crew. After rowing half the distance oar and oar, the Windsor crew con trived to get the lead, and won by a length. The Grand Challenge Cup for eight-oared Boats (gentle mentamatews)—The Oxford University, as the winners of last year, were the holders of the cup on the present occasion, but their names were withdrawn, as we understand there were many gentlemen rowing in the Etona boat who belonged to the other Oxford crew; added to which, the period fixed for this regatta, we believe, was somewhat inconvenient to many of the Oxonians, who wished to leave town. The Etona, Oxford (light blue)—Messrs. H. Morgan, stroke ; 7. Conant ; 6. F. E. Tuke ; 5. F. M. Wilson ; 4. Spankie ; 3. Stapylton ; 2. Spottiswo - ode ; 1. W. C. Staplyton. Shadwell, coxswain.
