The Earl of SHAFTlisiluitY, in the absence of the Lord Chancellor, took his seat on the Woolsack at Five o'Clock. YORK AND SCARBOROUGH RAILWAY. Earl FITZWILLIAM presented a petition, very numerously signed by the inhabitants of Scarborough, against the contemplated line of railway from York to that place. He thought the prayer of this petition ought to receive the serious attention of their Lordships, and also that it behoved the Government, when a line of railway was proposed to a particular place, that they should have a right to determine whether such a line was required or not. He 'thought it was not too late fur the Government to take some step in this subject, and he hoped, therefore, they would not fail to do so. The Duke of WELLINGTON said he would mention the subject in the proper quarter, and he had no doubt that proper inquiry would be made. • THE CASE OF THE REV. MR. MARSH. Lord CAMPBELL, referring to the case of the Rev. Mr. Marsh, said the Right Rev. Prelate opposite (the Bishop of Peterborough) the other night had stated that the reason he did not interfere in this case was, that the offence was not committed in his diocese, and conse quently he was not empowered by the Church Discipline Act to interfere. He (Lord Campbell had referred to the Act of Parliament, and he discovered that it was provided, that the Bishop of any diocese in which any offence had been committed by a clergyman, should have the power, if he pleased, of referring the case at once to the Court of Arches. The Bishop of v PETERBOROUGH thanked the Noble and Learned Lord fur having set him right upon this subject. It was true that the Noble and Learned Lord had stated truly that he (the Bishop of Peterborough) had said that he did nut interfere in this case on account of the offence having been committed out of his diocese. The principal reason, however, was the question of time. The offence was com mitted four years ago. It must be admitted that he had shown the disposition to investigate the circumstance. He was informed that the offence was committed during the period of about a fortnight four years ago. This was all he had heard, and he cer tainly did not feel a disposition to proceed harshly against Mr. Marsh, considering that at the parsonage house an excellent mother was living, who was in such a delicate state of health that any agitation might have been fatal to her. It must be borne in mind, however, that at the time he made his inquiries, the facts which came out on the trial wet e not revealed to him. This person was paid 800/. or 900/. a year, while duty was discharged by a curate for 100/. per annum. Such cases as those now before the House were of rare occur rence, as was proved by the universal surprise which, they excited in the public mined when they occur ; for if they were of common occurrence, the univer, al aston. ishment expressed at the late scandal to them would not have been so strong or so general. He could assure their Lordships that the prelates of the Established Church England took the deepest and most painful interest in all the matters connected with the purity and discipline of that Church, and were determined strongly and empha tically to denounce everything which should bring scandal on its members. With respect to the ordination of the members, he could also state that the greatest care was taken to examine the charater and qualifications of all the candidates for the' clerical office. Lord LILFORD rose, but from the low and indistinct tone of voice in which he spoke, and from turning his hack to the Reporters' gallery, we could hardly hear one word he said. We understood him to say that their Lordships must be perfectly satisfied with the explana tion of the Right Rev, Prelate. The matter then dropped. A message from the House of Commons brought up the Consolidated Fund Bill and the Three-and-a. Half per Cents. (1818) Bill, which were read a first time. Their Lordships then adjourned. IRISH WORKHOUSES. Mr. S. FRENCH wished to know from the Right lion. Secretary (Sir J. Graham) when the Report on the Irish 'Workhouses would be ready for Members? Sir J. GRAHAM said he had received the Report from Mr. Parrythorn, and it should be laid on the table of the House without delay. Mr. P. M. STEWART also wished to put a question to the . Right Hon. Baronet. The Lord-Advocate of Scotland had introduced a Bill into the House, which proposed great alterations in the divisions of parishes in Scotland, and affected important interests in many other ways. This Bill had only been introduced, on Mon day last, and was appoint( d for a second reading on Monday next. Now the draft of th&Bill could only be received in several parts of Scotland yesterday and to-day, and under these circumstances, he hoped the Right Right Hon. Secretary for the Home Department (Sir James Graham) would give a pledge to the House, on the part of the Government, that it should not be further proceeded with until after Easter, or at all events 1.1161 a reasonably distant time from the present. Sir JAMES GRAHAM said that the measure which had been introduced by the Lord Advocate of Scotland was very similar—in fact, almost the same—as the mea sure he had himself introduced last session. He would not say that he would not postpone the second reading, but he thought it desirable that the principle of the Bill should be discussed at an early period. Mr. P. M. STEWART wished to ask if the Bill was proceeded with before Easter, it would be on the under standing that the second reading would not be proceeded with until after the recess. The LORD ADVOCATE was understood to reply in the affirmative. ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS (IRELAND) BILL. Sir 11. W. BARRON referring to the Bill introduced last session relating to the Irish Ecclesiastical Courts, wished to ask the Government if, after all the reports which had been made, and discussions which had taken place for the last 25 years, was prepared to bring any measure for remedying the gross abuse of the Ecclesias tical Courts in Ireland. Sir R. PEEL said that the jurisdiction of the Ecclesi astical Courts in Ireland properly belonged to the Lord Primate. The Lord Primate had stated when the vacancy occurred last year in the Judgeship of the Pre rogative Court, that he was perfectly ready to waive his right to the appointment, and leave it to the nomi nation of the Government. When that appointment was made by the Government it was accompanied by a distinct stipulation that it was subjected to tions that might be made in the constitui..— ‘,l the Court, and if there should be an increase of duties thrown upon that officer, he was not to be entitled to an increase of salary. That appointment was mads towards the close of last sessin, and that func tionary was now in communication with the Govern ment on the question of a change in the Ecclesiastical Courts. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF TIIIS DAY. GLOBE.—Beside the great question of the Corn-laws, upon which the landed interest is arrayed in opposition to all the other interests of the country, there are many other instances of the scrupulous care with which the landowners have obtained protection for themselves at the expense of the other members of the community. One of these instances was brought before the House of Commons last evening by Mr. Elphinstone, by a motion for taking into consideration the .statutes which impose taxes on personal property, with a view to the imposi tion of similar taxes on real property. Although the motion was got rid of for the present, on a question of form, it will be renewed in the course of the ensuing week. By the law, as it now exists, personal property is subjected to two imposts—the probate duty and the legacy duty. The former is an ad valorem tax on the whole amount of personal property of which an indivi dual may die possessed. The latter is a second tax levied upon the same property, upon its distribution in legacies, among those to whom it has been left by the testator, in proportion to the degrees of their relation ship to the party who bequeathed to them an interest in it, and the amount of that interest. With the exception of annuities, or rent charges, arising out of land, real property is exempt from both probate and legacy duty ; it is transmitted by bequest, undiminished i value by any impost, from one generation to another ! It was by no oversight of Mr. Pitt, who, in 1796, imposed those taxes upon property passing by will, " in order to support a war for the protection of all pro perty," that land was exempted from its operations. The landlords—who were at that time not merely supreme, but adsolute—compelled the minister to con fine his probate and legacy duties to personalty, and to allow real estate to pass untouched. And having thus, in its origin, withdrawn their shoulders from the burden, the landed interests have, with characteristic disregard to the complaints of the classes upon whom it excusively falls, resisted every subsequent attempt to remove it altogether, or to alow a similar tax upon real property, by which an amount would be raised that would allow of a correspondent diminution of taxation on some article of general consumption. Mr. Elphin stone showed, from returns upon the table of the House, the great amount of duty levied by means of this tax on personal property. The very large propor tion of the Upper house are landowners. In the Lower House the landlords employ their powers with despotic sway to secure a majority in their interests. With such facts before them, is it to be wondered at if the people impute to Parliament that they have passed laws, not for the public benefit, but for their private advantage? Mr. Elphinstone strongly put this pinching question to the House last evening.— " What could be more unjust than for a merchant or manufacturer, who died leaving some pittance for the support of his wife and family, to have it subjected to these taxes, whilst the heir of a large landed estate—the inheritor of half-a-million of real pro perty—went scot free?" This distinction becomes yet more demonstrative of galling partiality in favour of the landowners, when it is considered that landed property becomes subject to the tax when purchased by a partner ship capital or manufacturing purposes! Another glaring disregard ofconsistency in the operation of th is tax, is found in the fact, that "the freehold estate of a landed gentleman is not charged with any duty of descent, except it have to be sold to meet the demands of his family or creditors, when it becomes subject to a legacy and auction duty." In this case it also becomes subject to another duty— that on conveyance. Within our limited space it would be imposible to follow Mr. Elphinstone, step by step, through the able exposition which he made of the marked partial ity in favour of land, by which the, existing system is disgraced. The argument which those who contend for the exemption of land from probate and legacy duty, urge in support of that exemption, is, " tint, although it were unjust to relieve land from probate duty under that name, yet still land pays so large an amount in stamp duty or conveyances and mortgages, that it is an equi valent to the legacy and probate duties on personal pro perty." The stamp duties, scarcely less than the probate and legacies duties, also attest the tenderness with which the landlords tax themselves, as compared with the weight with which they oppress the less favoured classes. That the interest which has been thus " protected" from fair taxation will, on the motion being again brought forward, make a strong fight for the preserva tion of its immunity from bearing a due share of the national burdens, is probable that it will suc ceed in staving it off for any lengthened period is un likely. The exemption of land from these imposts belongs to a day gone by. Like the old feudal privileges, which have, one by one, passed away, this also must yield to the force of truth and justice. The old fiction, that land has its peculiar burdens, which are not borne by the other national interests, has exploded. " The people out of doors," said Mr. Elphinstine, " look with great anxiety to the decision of their representatives upon this question ; because the people of this country are fond of justice and fair play, and they cannot understand on what principle it is that while they taxed the property of one class of the community, they let the property of another large class be entirely exempt from taxation. STANDARD.—The question of duelling was again brought forward in the House of Commons last night. Mr. Turner, after presenting several petitions against the irrational and unchristian practice, moved a resolution, " That duelling is immoral in its tendency; that it brings into contempt the laws of the country ; is con trary to Divine command ; and ought to be abolished." The country is indebted to Mr. Turner for his motion, for though the resolution embracing so many abstract propositions—each of them indisputably true—could not properly be adopted by Parliament, which must he, above all things, careful not to affirm mere abstract truths, the Houses of Par liament can hardly be better employed than in dis cussions calculated to awaken and inform the public mind upon the subject of our social duties. The frank expression of their opinions by such men as spoke last night, all condemning the practice of private combat, must go further to limit, if not to extinguish the practice, than any law could do, as indeed Mr. Turner himself proved by the list of legislators and So vereigns who had directed laws against duelling, unfor tunately in vain. Mr. Turner did us the honour to quote the opinions of the Standard upon the subject of duelling avowed six years ago, and to express his approbation of those opinions, with an observation, however, that the Standard does not now go so far. Mr. Turner does us, however, an unintentional injustice in this last observation. We go as far as ever we went in our condemnation of duelling—but we do not conceal that reflection and experience • have taught us that legislation upon the sub ject of duelling must fail—we would almost say ought to fail—unless it take the matter up earlier than the actualcombat,or even than the delivery or acceptance of a challenge. In every case of a duel the insulter is the real challenger, and, if death follow the challenge, the real murderer. Men of exalted rank—men of proved and distinguished courage—may, perhaps, smile at insults and pass them by ; but the man of obscure station, and of a peaceful profes sion cannot, without a grievous loss of estimation in his circle, submit to insult; and even that loss of estimation, though what most dread as the greatest of calamities, is not the worst consequence of his submission, if he is en gaged in any pursuit calculated to provoke antagonism or enmity. Once set down as a man who would not resent a personal insult—such a man would .be insulted by bullies every day of his life—persecuted by insult to his final ruin. The gentlemen of the bar are our wit nesses; even the humble writers of the periodical press know this. Let not Mr. Turner blame us, then, as hav ing abandoned our abhorrenee of duelling. We have not abandoned that abhorrence. We believe it to be sinful and irrational, and that homicide in a duel is murder, as fully as ever we held that opinion; and we believe that the person who engages in a duel, except upon an unequivocal and intolerable insult, incurs all the guilt and ignominy of a murderer—in intention, or in fact, as the case may be ; but, on the other hand, we must allow that one upon whom an unequi vocal and intolerable insult has been inflicted, is not • a free agent, more than any other man thrown upon his defence. Mr. Turner goes a great deal further than we are disposed to do in favour of duellists, for he would miti gate the punishment of murder in a duel to trans portation, a change of the law which we should regard with horror, as calculated to facilitate the foulest murder, in the form of a duel—such murders have been committed, and would be committed again, in that state of the law which Mr. Turner proposes. Thirty-six years ago a major in the army quarrelled with a captain of his regiment upon some slight pretence, forced him into a small room at night, without seconds, and under pretence of a duel shot him dead within a few feet of his wife and children ; for this the Major was tried, convicted, and hanged, and most righteously hanged ; but under Mr. Turner's proposed law he would at most be transported, probably only imprisoned two years. Mr. Turner thus recognises a distinction between murder in duels and ordinary murders—a distinction in favour of the former which we utterly reject. PROMISSORY NOTES. (From This Night's Gazette.)

The AvQrage Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, for the week ending March 22, 1844, is 375. 10id. per cwt., exclusive of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the im portation thereof into Great Britain. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of March 15.) SUGAR.—To-day rather lower rates being accepted for West India Sugar, making the decline from the highest point this year is to Is 6d per cwt, tempted this refiners to come forward more freely, but the grocers operated reluctantly, and the gene ral appearance of the market was heavy •, 110 hhds were sold, making the total sales for the week 500 hhds. REFINED.—The demand has been trifling for all descrip tions of refined goods for home consumption during the week, and a greater desire shown on the part of the refiners to sell, who have submitted to a reduction on last Friday's rates of Is. per cwt. To-day the home trade purchased refined goods cautiously; brown Lumps 75s to 75s 6d, standard Lumps 76s 6d to 77s per cwt ; there is a good display of samples for sale. Bonded Crushed Sugar is difficult of sale, and"2ss 9d per cwt is the value of first sort. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the trade evinced little desire to do business, and of 3,993 bags at public sale, a small part only was disposed of, at a further decline of 6cl per cwt; tine yellow went at 64s to 66s 6d, good 62s 6d to 63s 6d, middling 60s Gd to 625, low 59s 6d, fine grey 63s to 63s 6d, middling to good 61s to 62s 6d, ordinary 59s 6d to 60s per cwt. EAST INDIA.—This Afternoon Bengal Sugar was taken sparingly, 331 bags 50 casks at public sale, the sound of the former all taken in—good white at 65s 6d to 66s 6d, middling 645, damp and washed sold at 62s to 64s 6d, being about yes terday's rates, damp low brown in casks went at 50s per cwt, being higher. FOREIGN.—Holders of yellow Havannah for the most part are not disposed to take lower rates. This afternoon Bahia white sold at 23s to 03 6d for good dry, 22s to 22s 6d for mid dling, 21s to 21s 6d for ordinary, being rather eheaper ; good yellow taken in at 19s to 19s 6d, and middling 18s 6d per cwt ; of the other sorts, a small part only sold, at a fall of is per ewt ; Maceie, yellow went at 17s to 19s 6d, and damaged 141 to 14s 6d ; Pernambuco, damaged white 18e to 20s ; sound wne Maceio adcekoyre;pr l taken enin, Pernambuco yellow a i t 7 l s 7 6 s dt to e l r B c s brown, wt.

The closing prices of good ordinary Ceylon were 70s to 70s 6d per cwt. TEA.—There has been less activity in the market this week ; the purchases made by private contract have been upon a small scale only in black as well as in green Tea; good and fine de scriptions arc held with firmness, but in some cases rather lower rates taken for the inferior qualities, of which the supply principally consists. To-day there was little passing in the Tea market ; some parcels of sound common Congou for moneyare offering at Is 00 per lb.

The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour. Mr. F. MACKENZIE moved that it be an instruction to the Committee of Selection to refer the Edinburgh and Glasgow, the Slamannan and Edinburgh, Leith and Newhaven Railway Bills to the same Committee. The Haltwhistle Inclosure, and the Glosset Market Bills were read a second time. SOUTH-EASTERN AND HASTINGS RAILWAY. On the motion that the South -Eastern and Hastings Railway Bill be read a second time, being put, Mr. HOPE, with much emphasis, rose for the purpose of moving that it be read that day six months. He thought the house would but badly consult their own dignity, if they allowed this Bill to occupy their time any further. It was concocted for the purpose of serving the private interests of some gentlemen at Rye. Ile, therefore, with out hesitation, moved that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. CURTEIS supported the second reading of the Bill, and contended that all the transactions of the par ties supporting it had been open and fair. He would not go into details, but he called upon the House not to sanction an imaginary line when two fair competing lines were prepared to go into Committee, and be judged by their respective merits. Mr. ELPHINSTONE requested the Hon. Member to withdraw the motion ; he thought the house was no place to enter into the merits of the respective lines. Mr. DARBY said that where there were two com peting lines, the public were likely to suffer between them. He was willing that the Bill shoud be discussed in the Committee. The amendment was withdrawn, and the Bill was read a second time. RIBBLE NAVIGATION. Mr. WILSON PA.TTEN, brought up the Report of the Committee on the Ribble Navigation Bill. WILLS IMPROVEMENT BILL. Sir W. iipTriiciiTE brought up the Report on the Wills Improvement Bill. BIRMINGHAM CANAL NAVIGATION BILL. Mr. GREENE brought up the Report of the Com mittee on the Birmingham Canal Navigation Bill. Mr. H. HINDE presented a petition in favour of the Hartlepool Dock Bill. Mr. HARDY presented a petition against the Scar borough and Leeds Railway Bill. DUELLING. Captain POLHILL gave notice that, on the motion of the Hon. Member for Truro (Mr. Turner), to intro duce a Bill for the abolition of duelling, he would move as an amendment, " That it is the opinion of this House that it is inexpedient to interfere with the existing law, which is already sufficiently stringent on the subject of duelling." NEW POOR LAW. Mr. W. 0. STANLEY gave notice that in Commit tee on the New Poor-law Bill, he would move for instructions to the Poor-law Commissions authorising the payment of Dissenting ministers for attending inmates of their own persuasion. SUFFRAGE. Mr. S. CRAWFORD gave notice that on the earliest convenient day after Easter, he should move for leave to bring in a Bill to extend the Parliamentary suffrage, and to make other provisions for securing the full, fair, and free representation of the people. INCLOSURE BILL. Mr. 11. BERKELEY gave notice that in Com mittee on the Inclosure Bill he should move to in sert a clause to the effect that nothing in the Act should authorise the inclosure of any common land si tuated within ten miles of the cities of London or West minster, or within four miles of any town having a po pulation of 4,000, or within two miles of any town hav ing 2,000 inhabitants ; the number of inhabitants, in every case, to be ascertained by the last Parliamentary census. Mr. W. E. GLADSTONE brought up the report of the Committee on Joint Stock Companies. The report was received and ordered to be printed. THREE-AND-A-HALF PER CENTS. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX CHEQUER the Three-and-a -Half per Cent. Annuities Bill was read a third time and passed. On the motion of the same Right Hon. Gentleman the Three-and-a- Half per Centum Annuities (1818) pill was read a third time and passed. On the motion also of the same Right Hon. Gentleman the Consolidated Fund (8,000,000/.) Bill was read a third time and passed. Messengers from the Lords brought up a Bill, the name of which was not heard in the gallery. IDOLATRY IN INDIA. Sir R. H. INGLIS said he would take that opportu nity of puttiing the question of which he had given notice, in reference to the measures taken by the British Government, with respect to idolatry in India. The House would recollect that he had put a question in the latter part of the last session with regaed to the separation and disconnexion of the European servants of the East India Company from Mahommedan worship and Hindoo pagodas, and also whether steps had been taken to stop the pension or allowance panted to the idol of Juggernaut. The answer was perfectly satisfactory with regard to the Presidency of Bombay, and all but satisfactory with regard to that of Bengal. But it was not at all so much with regard to that of Ma dras. What he wished now to ask was, whether all connection of the European servants of the Com pany with this worship was to be discontinued? whether it was not correct that the subject had been re ferred to the authorities in India as regarded the pledge of continuing the allowance to the idol of Juggernaut, and that the answer was, that no pledge to continue that allowance had been given? He also wished to know whether his Right Hon. Friend would have any objection to lay on the table of the House the dispatch which had been sent with the pamphlet of Mr. Strachan to the Governor-General. Sir R. PEEL said the House would recollect that it was stated in the pamphlet of Mr. Strachan that 60,000 rupees were paid by the Indian Government for the sup port of the Idol of Juggernaut in consequence of a stipula tion to that effect, and he also stated, that the pilgrimages in honour of the idol were sanctioned by the Indian Go vernment. A copy of the pamphlet was immediately transmitted to the Governor-General. He had no objection to communicate the dispatch which had been sent on the subject by the Court of Directors. On seeing the dispatch his Hon. Friend would be best able to judge how the matter stood as far as regarded the British Government. With regard to the continuance of the assistance of the servants of the Company at the pagodas he had to state that in Bombay a Committee was appointed, which took the management of the lands out of the hands of those who managed them before. The same rule prevailed in the Government of Bengal. He was enabled to state exactly what had been done in the Government of Madras ; but he hoped that the arrival of the next mails would enable him to inform the Hon. Gentleman of the steps which had been taken by the Government of India on this subject. He should be prepared to lay on the table all the correspondence re laling to the subject. EXCLUSION OF ROMAN CATHOLICS FROM JURIES. Mr. BELLEW rose to put the question to the Noble Lord, the Secretary for Ireland, of which he had given notice, on the subject of the exclusion of Roman Catholics from juries in Ireland. In the recent trial in the county of Monaghan, of the " Queen v. O'Halleran, M'Kenna, and others," which was a charge of Ribbonism, there were twenty jurors returned ; of these eight Catholics were challenged by the Crown, and the prisoners had no right of challenge. The result was, that of the twelve jurors sworn, only one was a Roman Catholic, and the general impression on the pub lic mind was, that the Catholic jurors had been chal lenged solely on account of their religion. In that case there was no question of Repealer or Anti-Repealer, the case was one merely of Ribbonism. He wished to ask of the Noble Lord could state why the Catholic jurors had been thus struck off. He also wished to put a question respecting the employment of the Crown witness. It appeared that the Crown witness had been employed as an approver before the late assizes. He had been out on bail, and during that time and while he was in communication with the police, he had continued to attend Ribbon Associations, and he had admitted that he had taken an oath of secresy at a meeting of a Ribbon Asso ciation since he had been in communication with the Law Officers of the Crown. He wished to ask the Noble Lord how it happened that the Crown had excluded from the jury all Roman Catholics except one, and how they could justify the employment of such a person as the approver and prin cipal witness for the Crown, with a proper regard for the due administration of justice. Lord ELIOT regretted that he was not in a position to give a satisfactory answer to the Hon. Gentleman. On the day on which the Hon. Gentleman had given no tice of his intention of asiting the question he (Lord Eliot) had written to the Crown Solicitor on the North Eastern Circuit on the subject. He had received an answer from that gentleman stating that he was still on circuit and had not the papers with him which would enable him to return a satisfactory an swer, but that he should return to Dublin on Wed nesday, when he would furnish the necessary papers, but he declared that no juror had been set aside solely on the ground that he was a Roman Catholic, but that he snould be able to assign good and valid reasons for the rjection of every one that he had set aside. The Honourable Gentleman must be aware, that the instructions on this subject issued by Chief Justice Brady in 1839, and which had been laid on the table of that House were still in existence, and the Attorney-General for Ireland and the other law officers of the Crown in that country had addressed cir culars to the Crown solicitors on the various circuits, re questing that those directions should be rigidly adhered to. so that if there were any deviations from those instructions the responsibility rested with the Crown Solicitor, and not on the Government. Mr. M47well, the Crown Solicitor alluded to, had been appointed in 1831 by the Marquis of Anglesea. He had held the office ever since, and had given satisfac tion to all the different Governments since, and he would not believe that he had failed to exercise a judicious discretion in the present instance. With regard to the last question, as he had received no notice from the Hon. Gentleman on the subject, he was not in a condition to retnrn an answer. (LEFT SITTING.) POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) CLERKENWELL. Martin Gahetiss, the landlord of the Swan Tavern, Upper Holloway, was summoned to answer the com plaint of Inspector Thatcher, for unlawfully and know ingly permitting gaming on his premises. Mr. Duncombe appeared for the defendant. It appeared, from the evidence, that on the 27th ult. a corn-dealer, named George Bradley Shonnet, residing Gra y's Inn-lane, went to defendant's house, accom panied by two young tradesmen, named Alfred and and James Stroud. Shonnet deposed that having drank a considerable quantity of wine, James Stroud, challenged him t o pl a y at " four corners. ' They did play, and ho lost 68L, 101. in money, a 201. promissory note, and a 361. bill. Shonnet further de posed that at the time he signed the bill he was so stupidly drunk as not to know what he was doing, and recollecting himself in an hour afterwards he snatched the bill out of Alfred's hands and tore it in pieces ; the pieces were, however, collected by a friend of Stroud's, and put together so as to form a whole, and subsequently the bill was circulated and presented for payment to Shonnet by a clerk of the Bank of England, but payment was refused. It was found that the landlord was pre sent whilst they were playing for the bets, and must have been cognisant of it. After the bill was torn Shonnet deposedthat James and Alfred Stroud attacked, kicked, and beat him in a very violent manner. Mr. Duncombe admitted that skittle-playing and gambling had taken place, but denied that his client was aware of it. He called several witnesses, but they did not disprove the evidence for the prosecution. Mr. GREENWOOD fined the defendant 51. and costs. Two men, named Rawley and Davis, were charged as sus?ected persons. They were found lying in a brick field in Islington on Wednesday night, by police-consta ble 201 N, and on Davis were found a large number of duplicates, some of them relating to valuable articles. A pocket-book was found on Davis, in which was the following entry, " This night we must get money, or lie in the station-house." There were likewise tickets for the Royal Effingham Saloon in Whitechapel found on Darts, and twv bludgeons. The prisoners said they were natives of Bedfordshire, • and had been sleeping in these brick-fields for the last seven or eight months. On being interrogated by the Magistrate, they acknowledged that they had subsisted by begging, and had not been in any honest employ ment. They acknowledged having cut the bludgeons in Hornsey wood. Davis refused to answer any ques tions touching the pocket-book or tickets.—They were sent to the House of Correction for six weeks. MARYLEBONE. Yesterday two boys, named William Matthie, and Jo seph Hoot - the eldest -of -whom was not more than 14 years of age, were placed at the bar before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Long, for re-examination, charged with the following dating robbery:— . The evidence gone into upon the first occasion went to show that on the previous Thursday, between one and two o'clock, Reid, an active officer of the E division, was walking along Oxford-street, when he observed the two prisoners close behind a lady, who was going east ward ; he distinctly saw Hood lift up the said lady's pocket, and draw therefrom a purse, which he handed to Matthie, who immediately put it into his pocket ; they then ran away, pursued by witness, who succeeded in taking both of . them into custody. In the way to the station Matthie dropped the purse and ran off, but witness having cried " stop thief," as loud as he could, he (Matthie) was speedily captured, and with his com panion, locked up. The prisoners were both searched at the station-house, and on Matthie was found lOs 6d. in silver. The purse contained a bank of England note for 104, together with a sovereign, a half-sovereign, two half-crowns, anti a sixpence. The constable added that in his anxiety to lay hold of the prisoners, he altogether lost sight of the lady who had been robbed. Mrs. Catherine Ann Cobden was now sworn, and stated that on the day in question (7th inst.), she left her home in Newman-street Oxford-street, with her purse in the pocket of her dress, at twelve o'clock, and that on her return she found that her purse and money were gone. Mrs. Cobden identified the purse and the 10/. note, and she also spoke positively with regard to her having taken out with her the gold and silver eoins alluded to, making up in the whole 11/. 15s. 6d. The prisoners, who though young as regards years, are old in crime, and well known to the . police, were fully committed for trial.

Mr. M. .MILNES presented six petitions against the Bradford and Leeds Railway. Mr. WALKER presented similar petitions from the Earl of Derby, the Earl of Wilton, and others. THE PORTE. Mr. M. MILNES, in rising, according to notice, "to call the attention of the House to the present state of criminal jurisdiction over British subjects within the dominions of the Porte," said he must found his justification for bringing forward his mo tion on the enormous practical importance of the question. He knew how very few Members took any interest in what were called foreign affairs, proceed ing from circumstances on which he would not then dilate ; and when to these circumstances was added the one that there was no representative of the foreign department of the Government in that House, and that any one wishing to bring forward such a motion could not do so without great trouble to the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government (Sir Robert Peel), he should not have felt himself authorised in his present course were not his object one of great acknowledged importance. The inhabitants of Malta were an industrious popu lation, and so were the inhabitants of the lonian Islands ; and could it be expected that they would not do all in their power to obtain the regeneration they looked for ? He traced the treaties that had been made between eastern countries and the nations of Europe, from the time of Charlemagne to the days of Henry IV. of France, showing that the jurisdiction over delinquents was exclusively rested in the Consuls of the nation to which the culprit belonged. Having obtained these stipulations from the Porte, ought they not to have submitted them to some competent autho rities of their own. He was astonished that nei ther the N oble Lord (Lord Palmerston) nor any other person in office, had proposed a remedy for these evils. He begged to remind the House of the case of a Dutchwoman who was killed by a Burmese in Malta. In that case there was no means of adjudication except by sending the prisoners to England for trial, and he was informed that all the expenses of the witnesses were paid, and that they received two dollars a day as compensation for their loss of time.—(Hear, hear.) In another case an injury had been inflicted by an Englishman upon a Turkish subject. Although, ac cording to the letter of the capitulation, that prisoner might be given up to be judged by the Ottoman Porte, the practice was completely the other way. He was sure the Government would say they directed their attention to the subject immediately after they came into office, and that they passed the Foreign Jurisdiction Bill. He thought the Government might establish a Court in Malta for the trial of those offences, as one was established in Trieste. The subject had continually been brought before the Government at one time or another—they had acknowledged the evil, but took no means to remedy it. He now hoped they would show a determination to correct so great an abuse, and with this view he begged to move an address to the Crown in accord ance with the words of his motion.—(Hear.) Mr. HOPE said, as he understood the Hon. Gen tleman who had fjust addressed the House, his com plaint was, that the Bill which had passed last session gave powers to the Government, but they had failed to bring them into sufficient operation. He had re ferred to documents—amongst others to an Order in Council, and certainly Orders in Council were no thing unless they were made to apply to cases. But this he (Mr. Hope) maintained had been done. Under all the circumstances of the case he thought the Government were not justified in interfering in this matter. Dr. BOIVRING thought the authority which might with propriety be exercised in one place, might not be applicable in another, and, therefore, this matter was involved in no ordinary difficulties. In some parts of the East the British Consuls-exer cised almost supreme influence over the Sovereigns, whilst in others no grievances could be redressed. He thought that the chief thing which was wanting in this matter was to establish some code which would lay down the great outlines of legislation, and which would give the British Consul certain definite powers. He hoped that such a consular code would be speedily formed, and a good means of work ing it adopted. Sir H. PEEL agreed with the Hon. Member that there were many difficulties surrounding the question of providing a remedy for those evils. One of the chief difficulties would he felt in carrying out the decisions of those tribunals. He felt, aware thr.t the spirit of the present ' age was against the infliction of the punishment of death, except in cases when it was required as an example against great crimes, and such was also the feeling of the present Government. He thought this measure might have a tendency to lessen in the eyes of foreign nations .that estimation of the principle which above all others was most prized by England, that any person accused of a crime should have every means of defending himself. Her Majesty's Government had considered this matter deeply, and were sensible of the evils which at present prevailed, and when such a code as would be likely to remedy them could be established as one fit to be adopted by this great country, both the Hon. Member for Pontefract and lion. Members opposite might depend upon it no time would be lost in its application. Lord PALMERSTON said if a satisfactory ar rangement had been made with respect to this matter, it was not because it had not occupied the serious attention of her Majesty's late Government. With re spect to what the Right Hon. Baronet had said on the subject of capital punishments, he (Lord Palmerston) acknowledged that it was a subject which was in volved in great difficulties, because it would be almost impossible sometimes to establish that form of trial upon the spot, which would be satisfactory, or which would convey an impression of fairness to all parties , because the criminal would be, in many cases, de prived of the advantages of hearing viva voce evidence and of cross-examining the several witnesses. He felt bound to admit that the Government had taken the right course, and that they had adopted the most satisfactory and judicious mode of arrangement that was possible, when all the circumstances were considered. He was glad the subject had been brought before the House, and he hoped that no delay would take place, but that that circumspect course would be adopted, which should be suited to the magnitude of the subject, and that they would be able to make some more satisfactory arrangements.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. MILNES said this was a matter which re quired to be considered with the most serious attention. He did not think it was at all necessary to have a Consul at home. Austria had not one at home nor, lie believed, Russia. Let them follow the French system. The Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government, had satisfactorily explained the cause of the delay of the COnsular returns, - and he would not further detain the House, but sit down, than l L, them for the kindness with which they beard After a few words from Sir B. PEEL the raotiou was withdrawn. DUELLING. " That duelling is immoral in its tendency, that is Mr. TURNER then rose to move a r csolutioe i; brings into contempt the laws of the euuntry,„: contrary to Divine command, and ought to lg lished." The Hon. Gentleman said he re g re, very much that after the declaration that had 70t made in her Majesty's speech the Government ilea' t tal , en some step, or introduced some measure, °to down this disgraceful practice. A Bill had !lir, brought into that House in the year 1713, r: r a the duel between Lord Hamilton and If er Mohun, and in which both lost their lives , in ("sr to suppress duelling, but that Bill did not pass , cond reading. He thought the practice of due l should should be as rigidly discountenanced among ei" "Tbe as in the army. It was not so difficult to inak e td be law understood, and if once understood it wow rks o f followed. He had in vain searched in many sne e • eminence, and in every statute, for any countelLer to duelling—whenever it was practised it W.as for tinned in condemnation. The Hon. Meruh e i r bee a Salford said a few nights ago that duelling hau. ion it 0 created by public opinion, and by public 0 1 be would be suppressed. But why should th e evi allowed to remain so long unremedied ? sent Government brought in a Bill for its suPPr e ;pe, brief in its nature and peremptory in its provis; jou duelling would at once cease, and the Righ t et Oa Gentleman would have conferred a great ben ! i to the country. The Hon. Gentleman then (1 0te '0,4 observations of Paley, who stated that duelling murder, and should be dealt with as such. IC ° t eseeP had a right to take away the life of another, go o by public authority and for the public good. 'Jot years ago Colonel Thomas, of the Guards, 1 05 4 . 00 0 in a duel, and in his pocket after his death wa s ' ' d ol t a document, written the very evening before th or of which the following was an extract :—" ems'.

Few there ere, indeed, said the Hon. Gentleman, that would at te the to face public scorn. In a church-yard, ue a t t n i e cl, village of Chard, in Dorsetshire, an officer w as ",„ a r who had fought for his country in eighteen 01167,„a ments and died in a duel. He was glad to say; ves • the country would be.glad to learn, that there society established for the discountenancing o f due - , J• consisting of 349 members, 13 of whom , fier e ,„, 4 mirals, 67 field-officers, 36 captains in the 0 %0 4 lieutenants, 32 captains in the navy, 17 iieutenan here ent,, the navy, 30 noblemen, 14 Members of Parl h° o t and 141 civilians ; but he regretted to say -- ro be' but 1 clergyman of the Church of England s ti le to Viscount EBRINGTON—That is owing particular reason. Dora Mr. TURNER was glad to hear the xoble t b o s say so. He was well aware that the authori!'ll.ctet might be brought forward would be of that eur:iel: that might require more able advocates than linnet, but, in all he had said, he strictly adhered to the e beo ) that had been brought before him.—(H ear, „,1° It had been said that it was not dri e ci P; abate the nuisance ; means had been e u° P vs: other countries, which, he believed, would s °4 '. b ole an end to it.

Such an order would put an end to this vs," practice. He would say nothing about the to Mrs. Fawcett; he decidedly agreed, wit h re kt it, with the Noble Lord the Member for Su n . He thought they would be justified in refu s b ibil e pension, provided they brought in a law P l9 lo ola lif the practice.
