In consequence of the introduction by him of entirely new matter, Mr. Whiteside, on the part of the tra. versers, applied to the Court to allow counsel on their be half to reply, so far as the new cases, introduced, contrary , to arrangement, were concerned.—The Attorney_General re sisted the application, and Mr. Justice Burton intimated that the Court `would determine the point to-morrow (Monday) morning. If the traversers should be permitted to reply, the decision of the Court on the new-trial motion could scarcely be given before Tuesday. Term ends on the next day (Wednesday). Supposing that the Judges should refuse a new trial, and that the Crown should resist the right of the traversers to move an arrest of judgment, on the technical point of a want of notice, which the Orange party boast they will do—even in this supposed course of precipitancy on the part of the Crown, the Court could scarcely be in time to pronounce sentence upon the traversers within this term, although the Judges were to sit till the last minute allowed by law. The Attorney-General is now endeavouring to arrive at the judgment with railroad speed. PARLIAMEN TA it Y DIVISIONS, (From the Votes cued Proceed:so of the Hesse of Camnolas.) MONDAY. MAY 6.

TI - JAMES ANGLING PRESERVATION SOCIETY. lOn Monday the annual meeting of the members of this So ciety, which has for its object the preservation of the fishing in the river Thames, was held at the Freemasons"Pavern, Great, Queen-street. henry Perkins, Esq., presided. The report read by the Secretary stated that much had been ef• fected during the year towards carrying out the objects of the Society, and that through the exertions of the bailiffs ten convictions had taken place for illegal trespasses, &c. It appeared that the total receipts for 18.9 were 1301. 10s. ; and for 1844, 2281. 10s. 6d. The financial statement for the former year was not read at the last annual meeting, in con sequence of the absence of the treasurer. It app e ars that there is at present a balance against the Society of 661. 10s. 3d. After the usual businesi the meeting separated. The 38th annual meeting of this Society was held on Mon day at Exeter-hall. Lord J. Russell, M.P:, presided. The centre of the hall was densely crowded by Dissenters and membens of the Society of Friends ; and amongst those on the platform we observed Lord Monteagle, Admiral Sir E. Olhirington, Sir C. Lemon, Bart., M.P. ; Mr. D. Barclay, ; M.P. Mr. S. Mariaribanks,- M.P. ; Mr. C. Hindley, M.P. ; Mr. S. Gurney, Mr. W. Tooke, Rev. J. Burnet, * Rev. Dr. Morrison, Rev. J. Shurman, a German missionary from' Benares ; Rev. W. Arthur, from Mysore, &c. The Noble CHAIRMAN, after briefly explaining the origin and objects of the Society, proceeded to say, that at no time within his recollection had the great cause which they were then assembled to advocate been brought before the public under such favourable auspices or with so fair a prospect of a happy issue. The-propriety of educating the people was no longer a problematical question. Men of all parties were agreed as to its necessity, however much they differed as to the mode in which it could be Most effectually accomplished. Upon that point those who fornied this Institution bad never entertained any doubt whatever. They had long felt the want of a system of education which should comprehend every denomination of persons, and their only difficulty was how that want was t o be reme di e d. Th e y had two points to consider. .The first was the existing means—the next, the inadequacy of those means, and in what way that deficiency could he supplied. They found that the ' State, as a State, took no charge of theeducation of the people. The Church, if it had the inclination, had not the means wherewith to establish a great national system ; but even if it had these means, there were many without the pale of the Church who were not likely to avail themselves of such a provision, for reasons to which he should not then more par ticularly advert. It was proper here to remark, that there were endowments applicable to educational purposes, which might perhaps have been made available, but owing to the will of the founders it was found impossible to apply those funds in a practically useful manner ; they did not apply to - the purposes of general education. It was, therefore, found necessary to provide a substitute by means of voluntary' subscriptions. That Society had grown up out of the vo luntary principle. Amongst its earliest supporters were his late Royal Highness the. Duke of Kent, his late Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, whose death they had re cently to deplore, his own lamented father, the Duke of Bedford, Lord Brougham, and that great and good man, William Allen, whose benevolence and philanthropy had through a long and useful life associated him with every in stitution which had for its object the improvement of man kind. It was under such auspices that the Society had commenced operations. Its objects were, in the first place, to provide the people with the means of scriptural instruc • tion ; in the next, to secure to them the advantages of secular knowledge. The next question was, how these ends could be attained so as to include the greatest number of the people? As had been truly observed, the people of England were a Protestant people—it was no less true that the Bible was the religion of Protestants; therefore, by giving them r i the Bible, in that sense all could unite. 'With respect to secular education, he saw no reason why it should not be carried to the greatest extent, provided the means were ade quate. The Society had. existed, he' believed, thirty-eight years, and during that time great improvements had taken place; owing to the example set by the Society schools were established where they had not previously existed. In three or four years after the formation of that Society the Church interested itself in the cause; the schools of the National Education Society were formed, he would not say in rivalry, but they were put in juxta -position with those of that Society. During the last year the means of education had been con siderably increased. the details of which would be learned from the report. The efforts made by public bodies had stimulated individual exertion ; and here he had the hap piness to inform the meeting, that his Royal Highness Prince Albert, whose enlightened views on the subject of education must endear him to the people of this country, had contri buted a donation of 1001. to be applied to the purposes of the Society.—(Loud cheers.) His (Lord J. Russell's) brother, the President of the Society, had also sent his annual sub scription of 100 guineas.—(Cheers.) In conclusion, the Noble Lord expressed his ardent hope that the Society would go on and prosper—that by giving the word of God with sound and useful knowledge to the poor child, he might become worthy of a Christian country and a free State. The SECRETARY then read the report, which commenced with a tribute of respect to the services of the late Mr. W. Allen, the Treasurer, and announced that Mr. S. Gurney had accepted that office. During the past year 781 boys and 450 girls had been admitted into the parent school in the Bo rough-road. The total number received since the commence ment were-27,140 boys, and 16,162 girls; -total, 43,303: The normal schools were represented to be in a state of great effi ciency. The report then adverted to' the Sliciety's foreign operations in France, Russia, Greece, Belgium, Sweden, Ca nada, Africa, the East and West Indies, &c. i s Mr. S. GURNEY read the financial statement'. the receipts of the year (including her Majesty's annual i su ' bscription of 1001., and 1001. donation from the Fishmiggers' Company), amounted to 1,0811. ls. There was a balaiE of 604/. in favour of the Society at the beginning of the pis, to meet liabilities amounting to 840!. Lord MONTEAGLE moved the adoption of the report. The principle wisely adopted by the Society was to afford the means of education without the compromise of conscientious feeling. They were only following out, in that respect, the fundamental principles of the Reformation. No man was called upon to surrender the right of private judgment, but so to use his privileges as not to offend the judgment of others. Sir C. LEMON, in seconding the motion, observed that there was one part of the report in which he did not agree. It was said that a system of national and combined education was hopeless. He trusted that such a system would yet prevail. The R 4. G. CLATTpx moved the ilext resolution, expres sive of coligratuLition at the extensive efforts made by the different denominations of Christians in favour of elementary education. He was not disposed to treat education in the light of a denominational question. The ministers of religion, no matter of s ivhat aped, were not likely tee have worse hearers from the enlglilanment.of 4 ,:rle trusted that he should live baiee one' - general syikeeM,- without any compro • mise of the rights of conscience. Sectarianism was bad enough in adults, but the young smuld not be made to regard each other with antipathy. Mr. J. SHEPHERD seconded the motion. The Rev. W. ARTHUR, in moving the next resolution, pledging the meeting to increased educationefforts. for the promotion of t and ail s relating la t t h i the Britishgto the state o colonies f e education in British India , where he sta t ed tha t t h e grossest re especially. ignorance prevails. t.itenttoriedse, The Rev. A. SHURMAN , from Benares , who seconded the motion, bore testimony to the degraded state of ignorance in the Indian empire.terecdo The Rev. J. BURNET moved that the respectful thanks of the meeting be accorded to her Majesty for her gracious pa- tronage of the Society, and to his Royal Highness Prince Albert for his munificent donation. The Rev. Gentleman said that the Church had offered to take the trouble of edu cating the people off the Society's hands; but as they had preferred adhering to the voluntary principle, it was the duty of the Sqciety to exert itself in that good cause. He was not inclined to blame Sir James Graham for having set them the task ; but the State would have ajust right to condemn them should they leave the country uneducated. Sir E. CODRLNGTON seconded the motion. Mr. D. BARCLAY, M.P., moved a vote of thanks to his Grace the Duke of Bedford, as President of the Society, and to Lord John Russell for taking the chair on that occasion. Mr. W. TOOKE seconded the motion, which was carried by acclamation. Lord J. RUSSELL acknowledged the compliment, and the meeting separated. LOSS OF THE SEVERN SCREW STEAMER. BRISTOL, MoNDAy. I -Informationllas just reached this city of the loss of the above vessel, plying between this city and Newport. The Severn and the Avon are two new vessels lately put on the station by a new company, Messrs. Stothert, Slaughter, and Co. They were propelled by the Archime dian screw, and by high pressure engines, and they have only been running about three weeks. It is necessary to explain that there is a very strong current setting in with the tide at the spot where the Severn was moored, near the Newport bridge in the river Usk, and it is customary to swing round the head of the vessel as soon as her cargo is discharged, in order to be read for steaming off with the tide, but on this occasion such precaution was not adopted, owing to there being so little water in the river on the arrival of the vessel, that she took to the ground before her cargo could be got out. Whilst she lay in the river a new screw was substituted for the old one, and that only a few minutes before the vessel attempted to get under way, the screw was all clear, but on the captain giving the word of command to " reverse" the engine, and almost at the same moment to " let go the stern rope," it was found that the screw would not act. The vessel was, therefore, drifted rapidly with the tide, and in a few minutes struck against the sharp angle of the bridge, which made a " dent" in the bow ; the water began to flow in, and the pumps were set to work, but she rebounded, and again struck broadside against the bridge with such force, that it was almost mira culous she did not turn right over. The scene was now heart-rending. There were about fifty passengers on board, and the screaming and cries of alarm and for help were dreadful. There was a large number of people assembled on the bridge and shores, and assistance was promptly afforded; and I am happy to say all the passengers and luggage were saved, it being an hour and a half from the time of the vessel striking to her going down. Several attempts have been made to get her up, but as yet without avail. On examina tion it was found that the obstacle was a long piece of chain, which had become entangled in the screw ; how this hap pened is at present a mystery. The ceremony of laying the foundation stone of a church of the established religion took place on Monday morning, at ten o'clock, in the presence of a number of clergymen, resident gentry, and above forty-five vestrymen of the united parishes of St. Giles'-in-the-Fields, arid St. George's, Bloomsbury. The site chosen for the sacred edifice is adjacent to the St:Giles's workhouse, and the frontage will command a prominent view of the new streets and metro politan improvements running from Waterloo -bridge to the British Museum. PRINTERS ALMS-HOUSE FUND—On Monday the annual meeting of the subscribers to this fund IN- as held at the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings, Hol born. Mr. Taylor took the chair. The third annual report was read by the Secretary. It commenced with some re marks on the benefit of the charity, which had been esta blished for the purpose of relieving distressed members of the trade, according to the particular rules and regulations. The report detailed a number of subscriptions, including those received from persons employed on the various metro... politan newspapers. Sums had also been derived from ex cursions and other entertainments, making 80/. The total received towards the funds during the year was 2891.65. lld , and the expenses were merely nominal, amounting to no' more than about 18/., making the entire sum received by the Committee during the three years of the establishment of the fund, 1,1401. 14s. 5d., deducting all expenses. 300/ stock had been purchased during the year, making the total 600/. The report having been rec e i ve d and adopted, o t the usual formal business was gone thr oug h, a f ter which the pro ject of enrolling the Society was a gree d to, and the meeting separated. GLOBE. --The appointment of Mr. O'Brien as a sti pendiary magistrate in Ireland was last evening again the subject of debate in the House of Lords. The Mar ques of Clanricarde, having obtained the papers relating to this appointment, brought the question before the House by a substantive resolution, declaratory of the impolicy of the Act. The Noble Mar quis supported his motion by a two-fold argu ment. Mr. O'Brien had been a repealer ; distin guished, as such, by the intemperance and violence of his declamations against the union, and by the incen tires which he employed to inflame the minds of the Irish people, exhorting them to combine for the pur pose of forcing its abrogation upon the Legislature and the Government. After obtaining notoriety and ex citing alarm by the violence of his invectives in the provinces, Mr. O'Brien aspired to distinction in the te-tropolis. At a meeting of the Repeal association, held at the Corn Exchange, Mr. O'Brien delivered him self in terms so redileut o sedition and so fraught with violence, that at the instance of Mr. O'Connell he was first interrupted in his address, and eventually compelled to retire. His letter to Lord Fortescue, when Lord Lieu enant of Ireland, in consequence of his Lordship's decla- Etion against Repeal and Repealers, that has been before alluded to, showed Mr. O'Brien to be as intemperate when writing, as he was when speaking on the subject of Repeal. It is unnecessary to refer again to that ex traordinary- ebullition of intemperance. Nothing sur passing it in violence has been subsequently penned. Yet Rt.peal, as the Marquis of Clanricarde observed, " was not then so formidable as it has since become." The movement was not then national : it was feeble, and confined within narrow limits. The declaration of Lord Fortes-cue had effectually checked its progress. It; pewers were declining-it was d , minibhing in the estimation of those w h o had allowed themselves to be enrolled as members of the Association, and every one saw it would soon become extinct. The acces sion of the Tories to power, and the revived hopes and efforts of the Ultra-Protestant party from that event, acted upon the decaying energies of the Re peal party, and roused its leaders to new exer tions for the object the Repeal Association was formed to acc.mplish. The impolitic interference of the Go vernment—both with respect to the mode and the period of that interference—with the " monster meet ings," and their prosecution of the Repeal leaders, have produced their natural results upon the Irish people, and rendered repeal not merely a name, but the confederacy formed for its attainment " a great fact," at once embarrassing to the Government — and perilous to the national tranquillity. Yet—at such a time when the Government is prosecuting O'Connell and several other repeal agitators for their violent speeches and writings on the subject of repeal—they select fur a stipendiary magistrate a person whose speeches and writing were sup7r-eminent for violence—whose addresses were calculated to inflame the populace to desperate deeds, and whose letter to the Sovereign's re presentative, as head of the Irish Government, because of his avowed determination to withhold the Govern ment patronage from members of the Repeal Association, was at once an insult to the Royal authority, and emi nently calculated to bring the Government, which he ad ministered in the Sovereign's name, into contempt. Such is the man to whom the Government, with admirable con sistency, confides the powers of a stipendiary magistrate in Ireland! But Mr. O'Brien has ceased to be a Repealer. He has. But has he ceased to be violent and intemperate? Had he suddenly become calm and dignified—as distin guished for his moderation, as he had formerly been by his violence—the appointment would, at such a time. and in the present state of the public feeling, have been objectionable. Mr. O'Brien's past conduct would have tended to lower him in the public estimation. His functions would have been impaired in efficiency by the recollection of his former position. As a deserter from the repeal movement, he would be viewed with dislike by the populace ; while, on the other hand, the suspicion with which men regard a renegade would attach to him, in the estimation of those who hold the repeal project in abhorrence. But if Mr. O'Brien have only changed his party, without restraining his intemperance of speech and writing—if, as an Anti-Repealer, he employs his vituperative powers to abuse the individuals upon whom he formerly lavished the most fulsome praises—if he is now found denouncing repeal as fiercely as he once com mended its excellency, and urged its adoption—the un fitness of Mr. O'Brien for the office to which he has been appointed is proved, and the assertion of the reso lution moved by the Marquis of Clanricarde is este blishAl. Such an appointment is " calculated to disturb all confidence in the steady and efficient administration of juqice, Which it should be the objects of such ap poiutments to insure." STAIkiDARD.—The attempt to render more clear, or to bring within a narrower compass, the exposition with which Sir Robert Peel introduced his resolu tions last night upon the Bank question, would be indeed a vain one. We can merely hope to point attention to the general direction of the Right Hon. Baronet's explanation. After showing the duty of taking up the subject at this particular time, the Premier proceeded to reason from indis putable first principles as to the expediency of provid ing a secure and steady supply of a circulating medium —the great object of his proposed plan. He treated ith merited contempt all the mountain of rubbish that has been written on the subject, demonstrating the ab surdity of speculating upon an abstract standard of value, and taking as his standard the pound sterling, as represented by a gold coin of a deter mined weight and fineness. The number of books written, and the extraordinary variety of opi nions hazarded upon this subject, have perplexed most men's opinions as to the nature of a standard of value, and as to its possible existence. Sir R. Peel wisely throws all these books and opinions on one side, and wisely takes the golden sovereign as his standard—a sufficient standard for the time, as experience teaches, and as our knowledge of the nearly fixed quantity and about equal estimation of gold all over the world, shows it must be ; but a standard invariable through all times must be impossible; while the numbers, wants, ctaosntteisn,ue in a possessionstsa,teanofd constant powers c o h f an m ge a , nkind as, to consummation of all things, they will continue. The Premier next showed that a single standard shallthe of value is necessary, by pointing to the frequent variations which occur in the relative prices of all things, a variation which, were there two standards, would enable the debtor to cheat his creditor, by paying in the cheaper article all debts contracted. A pound weight of silver, for example, might someti mes in commerce change for seven half-sovereigns' weight of gold, sometimes for six ; now, by allowing a double standard, you would enable the man who had borrowed seven half-sovereigns in gold -to repay it by so much silver as would in the market bring but six. Having thus assumed the pound sterling in gold as his single standard of value, the Premier proceeded to oonsider the effect of the amount of circulation in the country upon prices, whether this circulation might consist of coined money or of notes convertible at the will of the holder, or believed to be convertible into coined money. This effect, we need scarcely say, is to determine the prices of all things—an abundance of money making all things dear, a scarcity of money making all things cheap. If a demonstration of this effect is wanted, it will be found in Mr. Locke's essay ; bat at this time of day we suppose that no one requires it. As little can it be necessary to show that the tendency of this greater augmentation of the amount of the circulation in one country than in others must be unfavourable in the exchanges, an effect which would be felt more severely were not the augmentation of our circulation more than balanced by the increase of eur capital. The necessity of a commerce for which the re quired amount of gold is not available, has suggested a representative of gold, on demand convertible into gold ; and this, to all purposes, is the same as an equivalent to the addition of so much gold to the circulation. But here arises an evil—this addition may be made, and may disturb prices, without sufficient cause. Nay, it not only may, but certainly will, raise prices, at thati, to time when, for the benefit of commerce, prices oug ht be reduced. Prices we suppose are high; t t h h ei who want to purchase must have more e g y o t l h d e e i n r g banker, swanttock opportunityot u r e s x e l t l e o n f d must h t ig h their rav r a e lo money m n r t o i o tn u o :e r t n t ; h l h a ee r who, besides being a discounter . • nts their bills in his own seecm prices. uo manu facturer of money ; he discou • of bills, is is also a es prices still higher, and so by so much raises notes ; this by so much swells . the circulation, and there forethreesnourfeoellsowshavae panicbeen ed their limits, and gone beyond the process of inflammation advances until high prices have reach among the limits o£ strained—a crash, the ruin of hundreds of thou orbanrekaesrosn, w a h n o d se thou sands, followed by years of depression to all, of misery to most. It is to obviate this dreadful evil that e p owouldlver, and tak e t a a w g a r y e , at as far a extent,s the more important parts of Sir Robert Pe e l' s p l an are o vi h- l e ier e e an h'e fcrannm dbairnekueterds — th h e can not take away the power, he would take away the temptation, to augment the circulating medium. With this purpose he establishes a clear practical distinc tion between banks (as they are insufficiently called from one only of their functions) deposit of d • t and banks of issue. The bank of deposit is the old and legi timate bank —the bank that was known before the existence of bank notes ; its earliest use was to receive cash and securities in deposit, and to advance money upon them. Afterwards it became the medium of transferring cash by foreign and inland bills of exchange, raising money upon securities and all the other banking operations now sufficiently well known. As long as banks limited their dealings within this sphere, they could scarcely operate upon the circulating medium to any material extent. Such banks are perfectly harmless, where they are not grossly dis honest ; on the other hand, if the public has assurance of their solvency, the more of them there are, and the more active the competition among them, the better for all. The introduction of a representative circulation in MONEY MARXT and CITY NEWS: CITY, MONDAY EVENING. „ We have before us h eport of a Committee of the Re peal Association, appointed some time ago to inquire into the state of joint-stock banking in Ireland, and submitted last week at the Corn Exchange, Dublin. Without waiting to remark upon the legitimate connection which a Repeal AgSOcifition should have with banking, we must admit that the Committed appear to have bestowed agood deal of labour and pains in collecting information, and the language of the report, it must also be allowed, is temperate, and not appa rently overcharged. The case made out in the report of the Committee is de cisive, that Ireland is greatly deficient in banking eApital and accommodation. An interesting contrast in this respect drawn between the present condition of Ireland and Scotland. The whole banking capital paid up in Ireland is only 1,600,0001., deducting the capital of the Bank of Ireland all lent to Government. The whole available banking means of Ireland is thus stated :—Average circulation, 5,500,00014 deposits, 6,003,000/., and paid-up capital, including the whole capital of the Bank of Ireland, 4,230,000/., makinga total of 15,730,003/. With th ese means so li t tl e b e n e fit is derived from the banks by way of accemmodation, that the average amount of thediscounts by all the banks of issue are estimated not to exceed 4,000,000/ By way . of contrast, the number of joint-stock banks in Scotland is 29, with a paid-up capital of 9,000,000/. ; de posits, 27,000,0004 and circulation, 3,500,000/., making the total banking means 39,500,000/. The Scotch banks have 340 branches, and the Irish 137, being in the former case one bank to every 7,750 persons, and in the latter one to evcry 60,000. The banking capital of Scotland is 15/. per head to the whole population, and in Ireland 1/. 18s. 6d. per head. These are, certainly, singular contrasts, and indicate a widely different state of society in the two sections of the empire. The Committee endeavour to bring all these facts and de ductions to bear against the special privileges which have been conferred upon the Bank of Ireland, and for this pur pose they have evidently drawn the contrast with Scotland, where banking has been left entirely free. That they make out, some very strong points salsa ths„manapilly.A4-bite • Bank Of Ireland is undeniable, but the main cause of Ireland being so far-behind in the race, compared with Scotland, is much deeper seated than banking monopoly, and must be sought for in another direction.—Herald. METROPOLITAN IMPROVE MENTS. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) If the improvements taking place in the east end of the metropolis are to be continued to the narrow streets of Wapping, the sooner they are commenced the better for the respectable portion of the neighbourhood. Since the re moval of the business of the old Thames Police-office, another wharf has been erected near this spot, the approaches to which are very narrow, and this place presents a continuous scene of disgraceful disturbance. On Saturday, during the forenoon, the thoroughfare was completely blocked up, and a hackney cab was overturned upon the pavement. The swearing and abusive language of the cabmen and others was so shameful, that the children and all juvenile members of society, who always congregate on those occa sions, cannot fail to be dreadfully demoralised by such conduct. Surely there ought to be some efficient remedy found for the increasing evil. Should not the wharfingers be called upon to abate the nuisance? Or is it not a duty on the part of the parochial authorities to call upon the Commissioners of Police to attend to the removal of it ? NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, 111Alr 6. The Iris, 26, Captain G. R. Mundy, was at St. Jago on the 24th of February, after an unprecedented quick passage from Madeira. On the 25th of February the Satellite sloop, 18, Commander R. H. B. Rowley, also anchored in the harbour, from the same port (Madeira). On a trial of the sailing qualities of these two ships, the Iris beat the Satellite by sixteen hours in four days.

She will form one of the experimental brig squadron. The Black Eagle, Admiralty yacht, Mr. S. B. Cook, Mas ter-Commander, is expected round from Woolwich this day, to be in readiness to convey her Majesty from this port to Cowes to-morrow. Her Majesty and attendants will'remain at Osborne two or three days, it i s confidently reported. The Collingwood , 80, will be commissioned this week by Commander Broadhead (1841) for Captain Eden, for the flag of Sir George Seymour, appointed to command in the Pacific. She will he commissioned in dock, and from the number of hands already in want of ships, she will be speedily manned. The St. Vincent, 120, flag-ship of Sir Charles Rowley, Bart., Commander-in-Chief, &c., will be got out of harbour to Spithead to-morrow ; her running rigging is rove, and every other preparation made, as, if she does not go out to morrow, she will not be able to leave her moorings until the next spring tide. _ _ The Fearless surreyttg-vessel, Commander W.

At the present moment some few particulars of the life of the distinguished successor of Lord Ellenborough in the Go vernment of India, will not be unacceptable to the majority of our readers. The Right Hon. Sir Henry Hardinge, is the son of the late Rev. Henry Hardinge, rector of Stanhope, Durham, and was born in 1785. His mother was a daughter of James Best, Esq., of the same county, and he is brother to the late Baronet, the Rev. Sir Charles Hardinge, whose son succeeded to the Baronetcy in 1836. At an early age he evinced a strong disposition for a military life—a disposition which his parents, with praiseworthy discernment, thought fit to encourage, and he was therefore educated with much care for the noble profession in which he so soon and so greatly distinguished himself. His valuable services in Spain and Portugal are repeatedly the subject of warm corn.- mendation in the dispatches of his illustrious commander ; and at that momentous crisis in European affairs when the Prince of Orange proposed levying a large body of troops, it was to Captain Hardinge that Lord Wellington recommended his Royal Highness to apply for counsel and assistance. Sir Henry was present in person at the following actions or battles, at each of which he more or less distinguished himself, re ceiving several severe wounds :—Busaco, Albuera, Badajoz, Salamanca, Vittoria, the Pyrenees, Nivelle, Nive, and Orthes ; he was also at Waterloo, and at the terrific engage ment at Ligny he lost his left arm, for which he receives a pension of 300/. For his services in the Peninsular he was rewarded with a cross and five clasps, and from 1809 to 1813 he was Deputy-Quartermaster-General of the Portuguese army. He has kkewise received several foreign orders. In 1827 he married the sixth daughter of the first Marquis of Londonderry, relict of John James, Esq., and mother of the present Sir W. James, Bart, M.P. In 1823 he was appointed Clerk of the Ordnance, which office he continued to fill until 1828, when he was made Secretary-at-War. In 1830 he was n appointed to the important post of Secretary for o lrele_ e l, which he resigned at the dissolution of the Duke . . f ef il: tr i - - lington's Administration, and in 1834, during the or! Ad ministration of Sir Robert Peel, he was again Conservatives to Henryo power that office. On the accession of the si Sir H selected to fill in 1841 he was re-appointed Secretary-at-War . _ November. 1841, and obtained the Colonelcy of the ann s7 y th Foot in 1833. but h became a Lieutenant-General in the hs Parliament, as to have lon g sat Duke for Launeeston since 1832.

During the year ten new lines of railway had been examined by the inspector-general of rail-. ways. The report contains much voluminous infermation upon the subject of railway statistics.
