He apolo gised for having entered so largely into these matters, Lut he did so from feeling that they had not met merely t,s a source of enjoyment, but to afford them an opportu nity of expressing their opinions on pubhc matters, with a liew to ascertain what was for the public interest, so that they might be prepared, when the proper time ar rived, to promote the carrying out that policy which they believed to be the best.

The following requisition to the churchwardens and overseers of Leamington Priors, having received a very considerable number of signatures, a public meeting was convened at the Town-hall, at twelve o'clock on Thurs day morning last, to take it into consideration : " We, the undersigned inhabitants of Leamington Priors, respectfully request you to call an early public meeting of the inhabitants, to take into consideration the present objectionable mode of assessing the income tax, and the very inconvenient place of appeal against all taxes ; and also the propriety of petitioning the Legis lature against the continuance of the tux upon income, based, as in many cases it now is, on the most unjust and . oppressive principles." Upon the proposition of Mr. Stanley, seconded by Mr. llackforth, Mr. Churchwarden OLDHAM was called to the chair, and after some pertinent observations, in which he pointed out the tyrannical and arbitrary conduct of _ - the local commissioners of the income tax, he proposed the following resolution :—" That a petition to both Houses of Parliament be presented from the inhabitants of Leamington Priors, expressive of their grievances under the operation of the income-tax, and praying for - - such prompt and effectual relief as the circumstances _ _ require." The resolution Was seconded by Mr. STANLEY, and earrietlnntrtrintonsly. _ OYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. 7ne PROTEOSCOPE, an original Optieal Instrument, unli mited • i n its appliances to Nature and Art, a highly valuable addition to LONGBOTTOM'S OPAQUE MICROSCOPE.

" That copies of the petitions, with sheets, be left at the • - libraries and pump-rooms, for the signatures of the in habitants, and that, when signed, the petition to tha House of Lords shall be transmitted to the Farl of War wick, with a request that his Lordship would present the same ; and that a petition to the House of Commons be transmitted to the Members for the Southern Division of the county, with a similar request ; and that the sup- • port of the Members of the county be respectfully soli- • eited."—Carried.

When bus' • mess is resumed till twelve T HE TRADESMAN'S AND GENERAL MUTUAL LIFE ASSURANCE, AND RATIONAL BENEFIT SOCIETY. Enrolled and Empowered under the Acts of Parliament of the I th George IV., and the 4th and sth William IV., commonly known as Tidd Pratt's Act. There are multitudes of Life Assurance Companies, but all are directed to meet the wants of classes superior to those contem plated by this office. This establishment is peculiarly adapted to the great middle class of society. The professional man. Vile man of limited income, the tradesman, the working man, all have hitherto looked in vain for an establishment adar,ced to their means, their desires, and their necessities. Societies with high sounding titles, large nominal capitals, and long lists of noble, honourable, and right honourable directors, have been established, or attempted to be so ; but if the veil were withdrawn, it would be found that the capital was in a great me?-sure ideal, and the direr. tors gentlemen who never could take am active part in working the society, and never intended to do so. Morever, when those esta blishments have real capital and proper responsibility attached to them, trey are found to be merely " Proprietary Companies" (i• e.) Companies of Shareholders who have to be paid a large per cent age upon the proceeds before such proceeds can be appropriated to the benefit or those who advance them. The working classes have been greatly assisted in sickness and misfortune by the operation of Benefit Societies; why, therefore, should not the middle classes apply to that principle to remedy their own peculiar wants and necessities ? It is true that some evils have attended ill-regulated Assurance Companies, but the misery entailed upon the lower class by corrupt and ill-conducted Benefit Clubs has been infinitely greater. In a large majority of Benefit Societies, the treasurer, or influential person, is a publican, at whose house the meetings of the club are continually held. The effect of such a state of things is highly prejudicial to the well being of a Society formed expressly to provide against the contin gencies of accident, sickness, or other misfortune, by inducing a waste of its means in the purchase of intoxicating liquors ; thus prejudicing the health and morals of the members, while the very funds to meet the necessary calls upon its benevolence are dissi pated. This Society is formed to embrace, if possible, all the excellencies of the Life Assurance Establishment and the Benefit Club. The Tradesman's Institution has been formed on the principle of mutual assurance, the only mode by which, it is now generally acknowledged, the full advantages of life assurance can be realised, and its legitimate benefits made available to the assured. All the surplus premiums not required to meet the actual claims of the Society being returned to the policy-holders, instead of a large portion being divided among the shareholders, as in Proprietary Companies. In reference to Societies founded on this plan, Professor De Morgan remarks, that the risk at the commencement is not groat in character, and is small in amount; and the quantity of risk diminishes so much faster than the amount increases, that it may safely be said, there is nothing in the commercial world which approaches even remotely to the security of a well-established and prudently managed Mutual Insurance Office. When it is considered, that out of the vast population of the Milted Kingdom scarcely 150,000 persons have yet availed them. selves of the incalculable benefits derivable from life assurance, it is evi dent that there is a wide field yet open for the operations of another society, established on sound working principles, and embodying advantages of a nature calculated to arouse the attention of the middle classes to the system, and still further to extend its blessings. On these grounds it is that the Tradesman's Life Assurance, and National Benefit Society, has been brought before the public; and when its principles and objects are fully understood, and it is made clear that the plans adopted are not only novel in their application, but hold out benefits to a numerous and influential class of the community, such as cannot be secured from any other existing so. ciety, the Directors feel assured that the Society must necessarily be extensively supported, and consequently be attended with signal success. The Tradesman's Mutual Life Assurance, and National Benefit Society, in addition to the usual advantages offered by Life Assur ance Societies, secures the long desired desideratum of a liberal provision in sickness and accident, as well as in old age ; thus combining all the benefits derivable from Sick Clubs, on an ex. tended and respectable scale, while at the same time, it carefully and entirely avoids their universally acknowledged evils. To the tradesman, professional man, and middle classes gene. rally, an Institution of this comprehensive nature must obviously be of the greatest importance, as it places them in a position to reap advantages far beyond those which have been held out by Benefit or any other Societies, and to a much greater extent. It in fact opens to them an entirely new field for the application of prudence and forethought, not only realising benefits to their fa. milies, but providing for their own personal comforts, against the contingent calamities of disease and accident, and against want, destitution, and distress in old age. The poorer classes subscribe largely to Sick Clubs for the purpose of securing a protection against the contingencies of accident and disease, but the middle classes have no approximating Institution to which they can resort. There is no fund in existence to which the respectable tradesman, the professional man, or others of mo derate incomes, mainly dependent on their own personal exertions, can apply for adequate provision in times of sickness or accident; nor is there any extensive Association in which they can accumu. late their savings with security and profit, and at the same time make them beneficially available in sickness, old age, and death. This great desideratum is now offered by the Tradesman's Mutual Life Assurance, and National Benefit Society :—By the payment of moderate premiums, the sum of 11. to 5/. per week may be se cured in sickness or accident, an annuity for life after a certain age, and a provision for a family at death—combined advantages of so important a nature, as to justify the Directors in anticipating an extraordinary measure of success. The rates of premiums adopted by this Society are calculated on a scale somewhat lower than those of many Assurance-01nm, but at the same time they are sufficiently high to afford perfect se curity even under the most adverse circumstances. Indeed the law of mortality is now understood as admitting of so little fiuctua. tion when applied to a considerable number of persons, especially those constituting the members of a Mutual Assurance Society, that the general application of that law in framing scales of pay. ments must necessarily be comparatively easy; and a Society for Mutual Assurance at given rates of premium, can ascertain the extent of its ability to meet all its engagements, with nearly the same arithmetical accuracy as a trader who purchases a commodity at a certain price and sells it at a certain profit. Assurers for the whole term of life on the participating scale on their own lives, or on the lives of others, will alone be considered members, and the bonuses arising from the surplus funds will be applied to the reduction of the future premiums, or in addition to he sums assured. To each policy, as it becomes a claim, will be added its full pro portionate share of the accumulated profits. DEBTS —For assurances effected by way of security for loans of money, and in many cases where the least possible present out lay is desirable, the premiums of this Society, as detailed in the Table for Short Terms, will be found peculiarly favourable. In assuring the lives of debtors, however, for the whole term of their lives, it is often an important consideration to the creditor, that not only the amount of debt should be secured, but that some means should be adopted for the return of the premiums when the life drops. In many cases the policy is kept on foot by the creditor, who pays the premiums, and thus entails upon himself a certain eventual loss, whenever the life fails, without any hope of remedy. In this Office, however, this contingency is provided against by tables calculated for the purpose; and creditors who assure the lives of their debtors for the whole term of life, may not only secure the debt, but also the return of all the premiums paid, with a participation in the profits whenever the life fails; and should the claims be paid off' previous to the death of the assured, and the assurer wish to surrender the policy, two-thirds of all the premiums paid will be returned. LOANS.—Two-thirds of the gross amount of the Premiums paid, will, after the third years' payment, be at any time lent to the assured, on the deposit of his policy alone, at the rate of 5 per cent. interest, per annum, payable in advance, to be paid off at the convenience of the borrower, or deducted from the amount of assurance at death. But non-payment of interest and premiums will entail the forfeiture of the policy. PURCHASE OF POLICIES. —" Institutions," says Mr. Watt, " have to apprehend most danger from their rivals adopting equitable principles in the purchase of policies. Hitherto Life Offices have taken a gross advantage of misfortune; that is, a party who is under the necessity of surrendering a life policy, is never allowed from the office a fair consideration for the surrender. The principle of returning the amount of premiums received, im proved with their annual interest, under deduction of the amount of annual risk and a proportion of the expense of management, has never hitherto been conceded by Life Offices, as a right the assured have to expect from an Assurance Company. Various Offices have been in the habit of making advances to the amount of the office value of the policy, but this does not meet the principle nor the equity of the accommodation. We want the concession of the principle, that a policy-holder may safely be made banker to the Association to the amount his computed premiums exceed in amount the risk run by the Office from year to year." The Directors of this Society now snake this concession, and admit the principle. They give the full value, merely deducting the proportion of office expenses, for the surrender of any policies of three years' standing that may be offered to them, thus obviating the fear of serious loss, in the event of the assured not being able to keep up the payments. CREDIT SYSTEM.—In addition to the advantages enumerated above, the Society will give credit for one half the annual pre miums during the first five years, the assured having the option of then paying up the remaining half-premiums, or of leaving the amount as a charge on the policy, to be eventuAly deducted from the assurance at death; thus enabling parties to effect assurances en their lives, and to secure a provision for their families, who might otherwise be compelled to wait till a remote period, when declining health would render them altogether ineligible. POLICIES after five years standing, on being deposited with the Directors, may also be kept in force by the annual payment of half the premium and interest on all arrears, in which case, the remaining portion of the premiums may be deducted from the sum assured, when the policy shall become a claim. DEFERRED ANNUITIES, or PROVISION for OLD AGE. The arrangements made by this Society with regard to Deferred Annuities, or Provision for Old Age, and the combined benefits which they offer, will be found, on reference to the tables, of the very greatest importance to all classes of society. According to Tables XI., XII., and XIII., it will be seen that Annuities may be secured at 50, 55, 60, or 65, with the option of receiving an equivalent in Cash on arriving at the age stipulated ; that two thirds of all Premiums may be borrowed after the Third Annual Payment ; and that in case of death before the stipulated age, three-fourths of all money that has been paid will be returned to the Representatives of the Assured. _ _ A Provision of I/. per week in Sickness and Accident up to any age, will be granted out of the moneys contributed by each Mem ber, after the Third Annual Premium, excepting always 5 per cent. paid into the guarantee fund ; an Annuity of 25/. after 65 years of age until death ; and 100/. at death ; or larger amounts in propor tion; thus combining all the most important advantages to which Life Assurance is applicable. ENDOWMENTS.—Sums of Money, or Endowments, may be secured for Children, at the ages of 14 or 21 ; or by Adults at the ages of 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, or at death, if that event happen before the age specified. By this plan, parties may themselves reap the fruits of their savings, and realise a provision for after life, at an age when they may wish to retire from active duties, or may be incapacitated from continuing their usual avocations ; or should death occur previous to the age specified, the full amount will be paid to the representatives. Assurances may also be effected on Joint Lives or Survivorships. From the foregoing remarks it will be seen, that the advan tages held out by the Tradesman's Life Assurance and National Benefit Society are of paramount importance to the Middle Classes, and to all such as depend on health and industry for the mainte nance and comfort of their families, as providing a Fund against Sickness and Accident; a protection for Old Age; and a remedy against numerous frightful contingencies, for which a moderate un certain income affords no adequate provision.

(From the &tide, of the 16th October.) During the last session, the Chambers began to understand that the application of the law of June, 1842, to a great number of railway lines, might com promise the position of the treasury ; they, therefore, voted for the railway from Amiens to Boulogne (which will form the communication between France and England), a lease (concession) fixed at a maxi mum of 99 years without any aid from the State, and entirely at the disk and perils of the lessee (conces sionaire). The adjudication of this railway took place this morning at the office of the Minister of Public Works. It was known beforehand that only one company would offer, and that, consequently, there would be no competition of a nature to shorten to any extent the duration of the line. The adjudica tion was, therefore, only an affair of pure form. Messrs. Charles Lafitte, Blount and Co., have been declared lessees, subject to the approbation cf the Government, with the insignificant reduction of a month, making the duration of the term 98 years and 11 months. The ordonnance of approval has not yet appeared, either for the Bordeaux or the Vierzon line ; we have alluded to the report which is current respecting the latter, the concession of which, it is said, the Minister hesitates to confirm, in order not to create a precedent for a species of premium given to a transaction be tween companies placed in competition. As to the Bordeaux railway the exclusion, without any reason assigned, of the D'Anthouard Company, will be the means of formally deciding a point of jurisprudence of great importance, in reference to concessions of public works. The D'Anthouard Company has appealed to the Council of State, de manding the annulling of the adjudication, upon the ground that the company had fulfilled all the condi tions required by the law, and by the order of the Minister issued in execution of the law. This com pany is still in ignorance of the causes of its exclusion, for M. Dumon has positively refused to state them. We know how extensive are the powers which the Chambers have given to the Minister; we do not pretend to judge of the motives of the very serious decision come to by him, in regard to the D',lnthouard Company, since those are a sealed book to all the world. Without, however, wishing to attack the use made of the blank seal confided to the Government, we may be permitted to express our astonishment that it has not been deemed proper to assign any cause of refusal, thereby placing the directors of the excluded company in a most unpleasant position with their subscribers. M. Dumon has overstrained administrative rigour, because his brother and his cousin are among the founders of the company; but with all due respect for such scruples, we are bound to state that it is not under our form of Government that a sentence can be pronounced without a reason being assigned, thus leaving strong doubts of its justice. Otherwise the most well-founded measure might be endangered by caprice or injustice. ANNULLING OF THE ADJUDICATION OF THE RAILWAY OF VIERZON. (From. the Democratic Pacifique of the 16th Oct. At . the time of the adjudication of the railway from Orleans to Vierzon and Bourges, a coalition took place between the two competing companies ; they inadtx such arrangements between themselves as, that one tender only was l o d ge d , an d t h e ra i lway adjudged with an insignificant reduction of the term. This fact was undeniable : we therefore learnt with pleasure that the Minister of Public Works, M. Dumon, and the Minister of Finances, M. Lacave Laplagne, have resolved at length to show some energy against the speculators who play S 3 audaciously with the fortune of the State ; their intention is neither to cause the provisional adjudication pronounced on the 9th Oct., nor the right which belongs to them according to the term of the law, to be ratified by royal ordonnance. But there are powerful interests which will oppose there result and endeavour to prevent the Minister from doing justice to that manifest coalition which has taken away all real character from the public mode of adjudication enployed to guarantee the inter ests of the State. Being apprised of the intentions of the two Minis ters, the parties to which the lines are adjud,_se 1 will spare no effort, will put all the means in their power into operation to ward uff the blow which menaces them. Who w - 1 credit it ? They rely upon the re sults of their jobbing for authority to continue it. " You cannnot," they say to the Ministers, " annul our adjudication —the effect would be to alarm all those speculators who, for above almobth, have bought and sold our promises of shares at enormous pre miums already paid or received ; the Stock Exchange itself—the English Stock Exchange--would be in jured. Your tolerating the manoeuvres of the Bourse during so long a time has authorised every one to believe that you would continue to support them ; the annulling of the adjudication would annul at the same time the numerous bargains made upon the rise of our shares. You would surely not wish yourselves to throw disorder into the alley! You would arm against you all the bankers and their adherents. Are you sure of proving the strongest in this struggle ? Take care that you do not lose your portfolios in it." The Minister must close his ear to these threats and sophisms. Each of the speculators must have known in bar gaining with promises of shares th a t th e i r va l ue was only a provisional value, an d th a t th e C ounc i l of Ministers had the power of ratifying or annulling the adjudication. Now the coalition of the above two companies is a fact publicly known—the conditions of the coalition have been concealed from no one; the resolution of the Ministers would therefore be perfectly well founded in reason, and we are in hopes they will know how to elevate the power and dignity of the Administration by an energetic measure, which cir cumstances so imperatively demand. The determination as to the adjudication once pro nounced, what should be done ? The affair should be disengaged from all those shameful manoeuvres in which the banking interest is engaged with the authorities : all jobbing should be put an end to ; and with that object the Government should, in the name of the State, take upon itself the rworking of these railways, by organising a special administration to manage them. (From the Satan-Corsaire of the 16th Oct.) The adjudication of the railway from Amiens to Boulogne took place this day at nine o'clock, at the office of the Minister of Public Works. One tender only by the house of Charles Lafitte, Blount, and Co., was lodged. The caution money was 800,000 francs. As we had foreseen, the house of Lafitte and Co., finding itself alone and without competitors, could have obtained the concession with the deduction of a single day of the 99 years, which is the extent of th e privilege. Mr. Charl es Lafitte has been more gene rous than we expected. He has offered a deduction of a month. We are assured that the royal approba tion will be refused, and we find that it is not neces sary that one scandal should follow another. Another adjudication, that of the railway from Orleans to Vierzon, has greatly interested the Bourse. The act of Ministerial pleasure (bon plaisir Ministe riel) which has rendered the Orleans Company the sole lessee of the line, when two companies had been admitted to compete, causes so much the more outcry on account of the speculation which is already car ried on in the shares of this railway, the price of which, from 500 francs, has rapidly risen to 685 francs. We cannot too much deplore the conduct of the Minister under these circumstances; he cannot, without compromising himself, longer allow the job bing of great speculators at the expense of the public interest, and of parties who really desire to invest their capital; he is bound to announce, without delay, that the adjudication will not be confirmed, without waiting until disgraceful suspicions of his conduct appear well founded. The reports are of the most sinister kind. For our part we are far from giving credit to them, for culpable connivance is condemned by the article 412 of the penal code ; and the Railway Journal of the 12th of October asserts, nevertheless, a most extra ordinary fact, viz., that the Leconte Company with drew from the adjudication in consideration of a gift in shares of 35 per cent. of the capital. It even goes further; it publishes the circulars addressed to its shareholders by the above company, to apprise them of the reduction of 65 per cent., which will in con sequence be made in their subscription. We repeat, we cannot believe in these manoeuvres; and if we speak of them, it is to demonstrate the necessity for a new adjudication. The companies excluded from competition will, without doubt , aga in present themselves; the public and the Treasury will have the benefit of bona fide competition. The re duction of fourteen years, offered by good ess a M ess rs. Luz rche, Laurent, and Mackenzie , is a goo sign, the con cession which they have obtained being generally re garded as less advantageous than the others. It is high time to oppose the progress of this de moralization, in which money is an object and a means equally objectionable. PUBLIC DINNER TO W. HUTT ESQ , M.P. FOR GATESHEAD. (Abridged from the Newcastle Advertiser.) On Tuesday evening a public dinner was given to William Hutt, Esq., M.P. for Gateshead, in the New Town Hall of that borough, which was attended by about one hundred of his constituents and other gentlemen. William Keemir, 1 , 61., the Mayor, presided, and the Vice-Chairman was George Hawks, Esq., J.P. On the right of the chair were William Hutt, Esq., M.P.; Saville Ogle, Esq., M.P. for South Northumberland ; Lord Howick, M.P. for Sunderland,; and William Cookson, Esq-, Sheriff of Newcastle. On the left, William Ord, Esq , M.P. for Newcastle ; H. Metcalfe, Esq., M.P. for Tynemouth ; T. C. Granger, Esq., M.P. for the city of Durham ; and Sir John Fife, Mayor of Newcastle. After the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN gave in succession, " The Queen," " Prince Albert," " The Prince of Wales, and his Royal Brother and Sisters," and "The Queen Dowager and the rest of the lloyal Family," all of which were drunk with great enthusiasm. The CHAIRMAN said he rose to propose the next toast with pleasure, because it was to do honour to a gentle man who had given his countenance to the company. It was to do honour to their representative in the House of Commons. If Mr. Hutt was not proud of his consti tuency—his constituency ought to be proud of him. He concluded by proposing " William Hutt, Esq., M.P., and thanks to him for the zealotti manner in which he dis charges his duties as Member for this borough." The toast was received with tremendous cheering. Mr. Hurr said he was certain he need not assure the meeting he felt grateful for all the compliments he had received. Under any circumstances in which he could be placed, the congratulations of so many enlightened men must be a source of satisfaction, but in his present position, united with them by so many sympathies in ( private life, and by the important public obligations which united the representative to the constituent, he re cognised this testimonial of confidence and regard as one of the highest ambition. He would recur for a moment to the circumstances of this country, and to the state of political agitation which had existed for some years, when he first became connected with Gateshead. At that time the Conservatives were endeavouring to lay the foundation of their power, and by what means did they effect it ? It was by a system, if he might adopt a term used by Lord Morpeth in the House of Commons, of mendacious representation. The very Court was made use of to influence the minds of the people against the Liberal policy. Prejudices the most gross were set forth as undeniable truth ; passions scarcely compatible with public society were declared at the monster meet ings of the Conservatives ; and religious intolerance against Catholic influence was declared to be the Chris tianity of the Church of England —the Reformed Church of this country. Nor was it possible to forget that the Throne itself and its occupant could scarcely be protected from their calumnies.—(Cheers.) Free trade, now the object of so much lip-worship, was attacked by every simpleton, and became the jest of every buffoon. Lords and Commons, clergymen and laymen, newspaper and pamphlet writers, all combined to resist free trade, and declare it a monstrous delusion of the Liberal party. After noticing one or two instances of Tory inconsis tency, Mr. Hutt proceeded to state, that last session the Government had been brought to a dead lock—next session the same state of things would be revived. It is their boast the Liberals were defeated. It is true the Liberal party was defeated, but they can look back upon their course without remorse and repining. They could tell their opponents that their path was not strewed with broken promises, and party di ss i mu l a ti on , or any of those re mnants of melancholy genius and energy which they now exhibit. It mattered little who was in power, so long as they maintained those principles of civil, religious, and commercial freedom, for which they had contended. Let them secure those principles to direct the councils of the country, and it mattered little who was Minister. Let them pursue the simple objects they had in view, and although they might not lead to honour and preferment, they would give prosperity to the country. Mr. Hutt resumed his seat amidst great cheering, but immediately rose and said he had a toast to propose—" Prosperity to the Electors of Gateshead." Before doing so, he wished to give some explanation on the corn-laws, and be the interpreter of his own opi nions. In his first address to the electors of Gateshead, he said it was the true policy of this country to buy at the cheapest and sell at the dearest markets ; and he meant these words to be applied without exception. He did not mean to make any exception in favour of corn, cattle, or sugar. He might not believe that total and immediate repeal would be followed by a large importa tion of foreign grain, and a large reduction in our own market; and he might not believe, on the other hand, that the total repeal would cause a large tract of country to be abandoned, and a large number of persons added to the distressed labour market of the country. He was quite prepared to apply the principle of free trade to every article of commerce, and he believed protecting duties to be an absurdity, if they were not, at the same time, an attempt to plunder one man in order to pamper another. He did trust the great constituency he repre sented would not allow themselves to be made the tools of designing men, in order to throw confusion into their ranks. It was his wish to see Gateshead give the same example on the corn-laws it never failed to give on every other question. The toast was drunk with great applause. Mr. Alderman BROCKETT had much pleasure in pro posing the next toast. It was one that would be received with approbation—" The healths of the Members fur Sunderland." He believed they had done their duty, and were entitled to the best thanks a liberal community could bestow. One of them was now present, who was entitled to high respect for his glorious conduct in the House of Commons.—(Loud cheers.) The mayor and himself were well acquainted with the history of Gates head, and they knew the part the Noble Lord's father took in behalf and in defence of their rights, and to see that they enjoyed the rights to which they were entitled. And independent of that, from the high respect they felt for Lord Howick, they ought to feel proud of meeting him and telling him how thankful they were. He said without flattering, and no one who knew him would ac cuse him of flattery, that he looked forward to the day when Lord Howick would fill the situation his sire once held, and have an opportunity of fighting hand to hand for those principles for which his father fought and con quered.—(Loud cheers.) Lord Howtcx, on rising to return thanks, was loudly cheered. He felt deeply the honour, but at the same time he was aware the toast was not meant as personal, but to mark their sense of the conduct he had endeavoured to adhere to. The worthy alderman had shown the in terests of Sunderland and of Gateshead were the same. This was indeed true, for both towns were depending for prosperity on some great branch of the trade of the country. Since he represented Sunderland, it had been his anxious wish to do whatever lay in his power to pro mote the prosperity of that town, by following those views which Mr. Hutt had adverted to, in endeavouring to relieve British commerce ofrestrictions. He expressed his satisfaction at being present, and he came simply to give a tribute of respect to his worthy friend. No one deserved it more. He had the honour of sitting in Par liament with him, and he firmly believed there was no one more honest, more independent, or possessed of more zeal. Mr. Hutt had many claims of gratitude, but there were two classes of subjects of great interest and import ance, on both of which he had taken an active and use ful•part. The one, in advocating the policy of com mercial freedom ; and another—a subject of less im portance, but still of great moment—colonization on enlightened principles. He could not help remarking that those were two subjects of the utmost importance, because they were symptoms that men's minds were aroused to the necessity of looking to the means of improving the condition of the great body of the people. The state of the people, which for many years was calculated to create alarm, has now became such that the careful inquirer must feel the necessity of some measure for their improvement. When he looked to the south of England, to the misery not only of' one time, but of habitual continuance, amongst the agricultural population ; and when he turned his eyes to the manufacturing districts, he there saw that they had but lately experienced a prevailing period of depression —most wide prevailing distress—and he could not but feel that those periods of distress must occur at particular times, unless a vigorous attempt was made to put the commerce of the country on a sure and extended basis. This could be done by one means, and one means only, and that was to liberate commerce from its shackles. —(Loud cheers.) Mr. Hutt had expressed the opinion that protective duties were misnamed. lie would term them duties proposed to enable one set of men to take a part of the produce of labour ; for let him ask how these duties operated ? If it were not for this system of pro hibitory duties it is probable the same amount of the produce of English labour which is exchanged for eighty tons of the coffees of Jamaica and Ceylon, would receive 100 tons from Brazil. The effect of prohibiting that j exchange was to take twenty or thi r t y per cen t. o fl a b ou r j to give it to some other interest. And when this system was applied to other bran c h es o f t ra d e , w hen they - found the same system in o prevented exchanging pe t ra he t m ion w , i a t n h d o t t h h e er p s r , od w u h c o e t r o s a o o f be goce fi eff rm ec l t y b b u e t li d e a v m ed ag th e at to if th th e calamity, this system mustremuneration be wished to.l o o f y 0. laboursome ? great calamity, matters, but especially with rega rd tion of protective duties corn-laws b a e l l . are most mischievous, speedily etoedtibe changed cause, while every other description k then referred to the j Lord Howie they arise oustubo.fectht coloniza tion.eofeorn-laws ' shake o off the shackle s He was not one of those who thought the popu lation too great.

H e had mention e d th ose two subjects more particularly, be cause they seemed to be those Mr. Hutt had given most Mr. 11. ROBERTS then addressed the meeting in a spirited speech, stating that he should not have been the first to take so prominent a part in the matter, had he not felt deeply the object they had in view ; and ex pressing his abhorrence at the abominable and disgrace ful tax upon which they had met to express their &sa tisfaction, he concluded by moving, " That a deputa tion be appointed to wait on the commissioners of taxe of the Hundred of Knightlow, respectfully to request them to hold all future meetings for appeals (as far as regards Leamington) at the Public-office in Leamingtoup instead of its being continued at the Black Dog, at Stretton." Mr. BIRD seconded the motion. Mr. R. RUSSELL spoke warmly against the tax, stating that bad debts were not allowed, and that they were called upon to pay a tax upon money which they never received, and declared that, although he had always been a property-tax-man, he would never again vote for a member of Parliament who would not pledge himself to oppose the income-tax. Mr. ROBERTS observed that he thought such was the general feeling throughout the country. Upon the proposition of Mr. CLARKE, seconded by Mr. BATEMAN, it was resolved that the churchwardens and overseers be requested to form the deputation. A vote of thanks was then proposed by Mr. F. MAR SHALL, seconded by Mr. T. SPENCER, and carried unanimously, to Mr. Oldham, for his able conduct in the chair, after which the meeting separated. IRELAND. CHANGES AT DUBLIN CASTLE. DUBLIN, OCT. 17.—The removal of Ir. Brewster from the office of advising counsel to the Irish Govern. , ment, is again spoken of with much m o re confidence, It is stated - that _ the Irish Attorney-General and Mr. Brewster have had a serious quarrel, and that the latter is negotiating for a Mastership in Chancery, it being understood that one or two of the present Masters are anxious to retire before the opening of November term. A provincial Tory paper, the Limerick Chronicle, states that Mr. Corballis, Q.C., a Catholic barrister,. who conducted the recent policy inquiry at Dublin Cas tlo, is to succeed Mr. Brewster, as advising counsel to the Government. - EVICTION OF TENANTRY. A Mallow correspondent of the Cork Examiner g ives a detailed stat ement o f t h e expu l s i on o f tenantry from two estates in that quarter. The total number is 81 fa milies, comprising 498 human beings. THE REGISTRIES. CITY OF WATERFORD.—On Monday the numbers ad mitted were—Liberals, 53 ; Tories, 8. COUNTY OF LIMERICR.—At Rathkeale, on Monday, 72 Liberals were admitted. Mr. Smith O'Brien at tended. THE ARMY. The Secretary at War, Sir Thomas Fremantle, left Dublin on Tuesday. He has been in Ireland this last week on the object of erecting buildings for Divine ser vice for the military in Dublin, and - it is supposed that capacious chapels will be built on the, ground in the front of the Royal Barracks. Sir Thomas was accom panied by the Chaplain-General, Rev. Mr. Gleig, and Major Jebb, who has given plans for the erection of depots for military defaulters. The Secretary at War has stated that the intended military brevet will not take place at present. THE PO LICE--ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE. The Cork Examiner gives the following extraordinary case which occurred at the sessions of Mallow, in that county. Here a common policeman takes upon himself the office of a judge, and actually abuses a jury whose. verdict did not square with his notion of law:— " Six men named Madden were given in charge for an assault arising out of a disputed right to cut turf on a bog, and on the jury re-entering their box, after con sidering their verdict, they were accosted by a police man, who inquired whether they had agreed to their verdict ? To which one of the jurors replied, We have agreed to the acquittal of four.' The policeman then said, What kind of a verdict is that for you to find ? ' " Mr. R. B. Barry—How dare such a fellow as you interfere ? Please you worship, I objected in the morn ing to the practice of allowing policemen into the jury box as:unconstitutional, and now here is one of those fel lows interfering with the verdict of the jury. If we lire in a free country, will such conduct be longer permitted? " The sensation created in court was so intense, and the uproar occasioned by the announcement so great, that it was impossible to hear the observations of the court, but the barrister was understood to censure the conduct of the policeman in very strong language." ATTEMPT TO SINK VESSELS IN LIBIERICIE.—We are much gratified in having to announce that the exertions made by Mr. Steele, in co-operation with the local - authorities, to bring the perpetrators of this daring out- - rage to justice, are most likely to prove successful. On Monday the Mayor received information on oath against _ Peter Liddane, the man first arrested on suspicion. This new information leaves little doubt of the accused being a principal in the diabolical plot. Liddane being out on bail to appear when called on, Sergeant Reidy was de puted to execute the warr a nt for his re-apprehension, in the discharge of which duty some important (dream stances unexpectedly came out, which, it is hoped, will bring to light every particular connected with this re volting deed. Peter Liddane is fully committed by the Mayor, and at present there is a strong prima facie case fora jury. —Limerick Chronicle.
