Hence forth, it is clear that there can be no mistake as to the nature of the compact between Sir ROBERT PEEL and the Conservatives. The one is to issue his com mands, and the others are to obey them without hesitation. Anything like an adherence to conscien tious principle, on the part of the latter, is to be wholly out of the question. The old, hacknied system of governing by party—and by party exclusively, without reference fo higher considerations—is still to be maintained in all its pristine rigidness. Now, we had hoped that the Reform Bill, which created such a revolution. in politics, would have had the gradual effect of doing away with this worn out system ; and that, warned by the failure of the Whigs, who were too often influenced by mere party prejudices, Sir ROBERT PEEL would have adopted a more manly and comprehensive course of action, and in bringing forward his public measures, have trusted for support solely to their efficiency, and not to the mere votes of his Conservative supporters But, instead of adapting himself to the altered cha racter of the times, he has preferred to continue the old system, and rely on the blind obedience of a party, rather than on the free suffrages of the people, for support. The consequence is, that he has re duced the Conservatives to the humiliating alternative of either becoming the abject tools of his will, or else of hurling him from office, and so running their heads against the brick-wall of Whiggery.

The Hon. Gentlemen, it will be remembered, stated, on the authority of a petition, which he presented, that certain letters, written and posted by the petitioners, Messrs. LINTON, LovETT, MAzZiNI, and others, had been opened, read, and unduly detained at the General Post-office. Petitioners, who were prepared to prove the truth of these allegations, declared that the letters in question, which had been written at No. 47, De vonshire-street, Queen-square, Bloomsbury, were not written with any political purpose, and contained no treasonable matter. They now prayed the House to grant a Committee of Inquiry into a proceeding which they could only identify with the system of espionage established in the departments of some foreign States, but which was a system alike repugnant to the spirit of the British Constitution, and dangerous to the prin • ciples of British liberty. All this, and more, is perfectly true of such a system. It is one calculated, moreover, to excite all the indignant jealousy of Englishmen on the score of that national honour and good faith which. they appeal to with a just and noble confidence in protesting against, or re senting, the crooked policy observed by other States in tampering with the private business and affairs of foreigners who May happen to be within their juris diction. The sacredness of sealed letters is (not to speak disparagingly of so sound a principle), a moral prejudice, a received axiom, an inalienable association in the scheme of English society. It is assumed to be as unviolated in practice as it is unim peachable in theory; and the scorn and contempt vi sited on its infraction, in private life, are of the most intense and implacable character which can attach to the vengeance of opinion. We speak of that opinion which is the unwritten judgment of the community ,(on crimes against social confidence and private inte grity)—beyond• and independent of all legal penalty. No wonder, then, that Mr. DUNCOMBE'S address ex cited so profound a sentiment within and beyond the walls of Parliament ; and we trust, for the character of the country--, that the matter it involved is not to be allowed to sink out of notice, or to escape a most searching inquiry, out of any consideration for the shuffling statement offered by the Home Secretary, Sir JAMES GRAHAM—a statement halting between habitual arrogance, and awakened timidity; between an affectation of the speaker's confidence in his official impunity, under the latent powers of an unsuspected clause in a consolidating Post-office statute, and ner vous indications of his alarm at the succession of un welcome questions provoked from various quarters by the tone and temper of his refusal to supply the infor mation demanded of him. Sir JAMES is, after all, but a clumsy dabbler in the art of managing spies; he will find these servilest of public hacks as liable to break down in St. Martin's-le-Grand as at Clontarf or Donnybrook. Now let us look a little at the detail of the debate, in its actual order. Mr. DUNCOMBE, we repeat, after the petitioners, stated that the letters were written for no political purpose, and contained . no treasonable matter. Sir JAMES GRAHAM, in no subsequent pas sage, attempts to aver that they did. This should be borne in mind, because it is a fact which deprives the Right Hon. Secretary of any ex post facto justification for breaking their seals to get at their contents. Mr. DUNCOMBE asked whether the Right Hon. Baronet was aware 'that the letters of these individuals hai been so opened, read, and examined at the General Post-office; and, if such things had been done, whe ther they were done by authority of any of the prin cipal Secretaries of State ? Sir JAMES evaded this question, by assuming that the House was aware that, from so early a period as the reign of ANNE, power had been invested in the principal Secretaries, "by warrant, to detain letters, and to empower the Post office authorities to open them." Why, these powers were granted under so different a state of things from that which at present exists—internal convul sions, a foreign war, and jacobinical intrigues for the restoration of the STUARTS—that it was then a question of confiding them to the con stitutional and clean hands of a GODOLPHIN, instead of those of a GRAHAM. The same power, however, Sir JAMES asserts, came under the review of Parliament in 1837, and, by the Ist VICTORIA, was continued in her MAJESTY'S principal Secretaries of State. But, in the first place, even if this were so, it would only show that, in the scandalous hurry with which the House of Commons gallops through official Bills, at the more advanced periods of a session, the most important and most iniquitous provisions and powers may escape all observation and discussion ; and, in the second, the fact remarked by Mr. HUME, and afterwards cleverly illustrated by Mr. WATSON, in the debate on Friday, is not exactly, as it suited Sir JAMES thus to state it. Sir JAMES (who can never "pull up" in time), carried away by this felici tous invocation of ANNE and VICTORIA, went on to this very tender ground :—" That the power com plained of he had, as Home Secretary, by the law of the land ; that he had exercised it, as one entrusted to Ministers for the publiC safety; that the Parliament of the country placed confidence in those who exer cised it" —among those, of course, is himself. As if Parliament had forgotten his unexampled apostacy from his party ; his inconceivable desertion of his principles ! As if Parliament could be tutored to for get the quondanz Radical Whiggery of the present Tory Secretary, by the humiliating exhibition of his tacit acquiescence in, and patient endurance under, the jibes, and taunts, and sneers, of the Pre mier whom he now serves, at the " Corn and Cur rency" doctrines of " Sir JAMES GRAHAM, of Ne therby," in 1827, when appealed to, and vindicated by, the Birmingham " Gemini" of 1844 ! As if the House of Commons, with the recollection fresh in its mind of Education Bills ejected, and Factory legislation failures, and secret missions, and private instruction s to ostensible reporters for public papers, and this last acknowledged exercise of a power disgraceful to all concerned in its proposition, its grant, -or its use, were with respect s sp f e o c r t " confidence," truly ! But then, it seems, to the letters of three of the petitioners, no warrant had ever been issued. " With respect to the fourth, he had on his own responsibility issued warrant which was not' now in for;e: So then, in three of these cases, if Sir JAMES Will obstinately withhold further information, we are to assume no warrants were issued. How came the letters of these parties, then, to be opened, examined, read, detained ? Who is to plead to this illegality ? Does Sir JAmss = gravely expect that the Parliament, or the people of England, will tamely submit, like ASTLEY'S ROYAL. AMPHITHEATRE OF Aars. _ - Proprietor and Manager, Mr. BATTY.

The sensation caused by this unrivalled production is beyond all former precedent; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer are all struck with its extraordinary beauty and fidelity of dehnea. tion, and are unanimous in pronouncing it the most wonderful ex. bib:firm ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific display at Dusk is unjust; it should be seen in the calm stillness of the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa cious Lake, to be fully appreciated. The Evening PROMENADE CONCERTS, conducted by Mr. Godfrey, are upon a scale of more than usual excellence: but words fail in doing justice to the awful representation of THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON. Its fearful characteristics are truthfully pourtrayed, but at the same time se beautifully blended with the Wonders of the Pyrotechnic Ait, that delight is predominant over terror; and the Thousands who nightly crowd the Gardens hail it with acclamations, and admit that Southhy, the Unrivalled Pyrotechnist, his achieved a matchless les, triumph.

(.4 blenA,-11 LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 19, 1844, In the House of Lords the Insolvent Debtors' Bill, and the Court of Bankruptcy Bill passed through Committee. The Slave Trade Treaties Bill was read a third timt. The Earl of STRADBROILE presented a petition from Stow "Market, praying the House to take measures for prey eating incendiarism. The name adjourned at an early hour till Friday. _ _ The Commons did not make a House. The Mem bers were exhausted by the debates on the Sugar Question, and as only thirty-six Members were pre sent at four o'clock, the- SPEAKER adjourned the House till this day. The Herald of this morning observes, in reference to the late extraordinary divisions in the .House of "Commons' on the subject of the Sugar Duties :—" It is not the breast of the good consequences which we may anticilate from the debate and division of Mon day night, t hat there can be no longer any misunder standing amtng Conservatives. The footing on which the Ministers avid the party are reciprocally to stand in future is now .clearly laid down, and it is manifestly the wi r e and honoerable footing. Ministers disclaim the design or the wish to dictate to the Conserva tives ; but in turn they declare that they will not submit to dictation from the party ; still less to dic tation from any fragment of the party, whether strengthened or not by an alliance with an old known Our Contempora r y eneany."then proceeds to quote, with marked satisfaction, the sub4ance of a declaration recently mhde by Sir ROBERT - PEEL in Parliament to the following effect:—" I have taken office to preserve the institutions of the country, and to repair and adapt, where amendment -and adapta tion may seem to be necessary to their preservation. Combinations between those who support me and these to whom we have always been opposes:l, may compel me to resign office when I can no longer use fully occupy it; but they shall not cause me to forget what I owe to my duty and my own honour This." declaration of the Premier, as well as the _ma-narks of time Herald, are expressed in the smoothest I%nd most guarded language, so as to convey an emplmtic hint Without shocking in the slightest degree what; little sense of independence may still linger as the Conservative party; still their meaning is. quite sufficiently obvious, and, when stripped .of the specious drapery of words in which it is pur- P . o se_ ly clothed, am oun t s t o ne ith er more nor l. ess t h an thi s — nalnely, that on no pretext w h atsoever w ill t h e Premier acknowledge the right of the Conservatives t . o , !Teak or vote against him on any questions. which it may sua his vi ews to their bri ng forward. As their re cognised l ea d er it is b obeyounden duty to submit their w ill t o hi s, and cheerfully his hehelite, no matter how irreconcilable theyma to their notions of what is j us t and polite. True, they. ma own y whipped schoolboys, to be assured th at for the powe " to have thus been exercised is for the public good." Mr. DUNCOMBE complained—and with reason, too —that such proceedings were worthy of foreign despotisms, only—not of an enlightened monarchy like this :—that not one man in 20,000 was aware of the "power" thus smuggled into the Act, 1 VICTORIA ;—that in times of peace espeCially, there could be neither excuse nor reason for its being put in action. He affirmed (and Mr. WALLACE con firmed his statement by some remarkable facts) that within these two years the practice of opening and detaining letters at the Post-office had largely in creased. We cannot concur in Mr. LABOUCHERE'S defence of his own conduct in 1836-37, in incorpo rating such a power as that complained of in his Bill, on the mere principle that it already existed in pre vious statutes, and his was but a Bill of consolida tion. No Englishman ought to consent to vest such a power in any hands, except under much more strin gent restraints and control. If necessary in time of war, or under strong cases of suspected treasonable correspondence, let the detention and opening be made matters of previous specific communication to, and authority from, Parliament. Dr. BOWRING, we suspect, was not far from the truth in his suspicion that the letters of the petitioners had been opened, "not for an honest English purpose, but for a discre ditable foreign one." With Mr. Humes spirited re probation of the practice, and its assumed authority, we cordially concur. But Mr. WATSON brought the affair to its true constitutional, and Sir JAMES him self may find its true responsible, bearing. From the Right Hon. Baronet's having given no answer to Mr. WARBURTON'S inquiry " whether he had issued a se parate warrant in each case in which a letter had been opened," Mr. WATSON read the words of the 9th ANNE, C. 10, s. 40, which were—" Except by express warrant in writing under the hand of one of her MA JESTY'S principal Secretaries of State for every such opening, detention, or delay." Now these terms could never be satisfied by "A" warrant, to be kept in force till revoked, to open all letters coming in a particular handwriting to a particular individual. But in Mr. LABOUCHERE'S Act—of " simple conso lidation"—the words gave a power "to open, detain, or delay letters in obedience to an express warrant," &c. These are certainly strangely altered in the pro cess of consolidation. But, as Mr. WATSON ob served, "In all matters we must look back to sta tutes which existed before, and, in doing so, it would be found they made an express warrant necessary for each opening." The production of the warrant, or the warrants, one and all, we trust, will be sternly insisted upon. Parliament can then form their own construc tion of the Home Secretary's construction of an Act of Parliament. In the meanwhile, her MAJESTY'S Government must have discovered that in taking Sir JONAH GRAHAM on board, they have shipped a de serter - who is sure to sink every vessel that may carry his unlucky person the present Minister of Public Works, to become Minister of Justice. M. VITET to be Minister of Public Works, and M. DE MONTALIVET to be Mi nister of the Interior. EAST INDIA HOUSE-(THIS DAY). The quarterly general meeting of the Proprietors took place at the Last India House this morning. The chair was taken at twelve o'clock by Captain Shepard. Certain returns, laid before Parliament since the , last meeting, were ordered to be laid on the table; also an ac count of the superannuations granted since the last annual meeting. Mr. TITENENG brought up the report of the Committee on Bye-laws. Committee reported that the bye-laws had been duly observed and executed during the past year. , They expressed their regret at the decease of one of their body; namely, Sir James Shaw, by which the Company had been deprived of the services of one whose upright and manly con duct had deserved and obtained for him the respect of all his colleagues. The Hon. Proprietor said it might be expected that he should add a few words to the report, so far as re garded the death of Sir James Shaw. He could not but express the respect and affection with which he had uni formly regarded him. There had never been a man in the city of London who enjoyed more of the respect and con fidence of the public at large. As a magistrate, he was uniformly zealous, mild, and firm in the discharge of his duties; as a member of the Committee, he had been distin guished for his upright conduct, and for the courtesy of his manners. The CHAIRMAN said it could hardly be necessary that he should assure the Hon. Proprietor that the Court of 'Directors entirely concurred in tile tribute of respect which had been paid b y him to Sir James Shaw. The Committee was then appointed for the next year, and Henry Sullivan Graham, Esq., was chosen to fill up the vacancy created by the death of Sir James Shaw. Mr. lOYNDER withdrew his motion with respect to the payment of 6,0001. a year to the temple of Juggernaut, on the ground that no answer had been received to the dispatch of the Directors on that subject. The Hon. Proprietor com plained strongly of the delay which had taken place. Madrid papers of the 11th state that the conferences between the Finance Minister and certain loan con tractors still continued, and some of them add that the parties were not likely to come to terms. The fact is the Government is bankrupt, and can give no security either for the payment of interest or princi pal without annulling some previous contract, and thereby lowering still farther public credit. Letters from Barcelona announce that the French Minis ter was urging the Government to reduce the tariff duties, and that he would probably be suc cessful. Mr. BULWER had a long conference with the Marquis of VILUMA on the 10th, which was said to refer to the same subject. The Court still remained at Barcelona, where the Turkish Ambas sador had an interview with the QUEEN, and presented his credentials. The Three per Cents. were done at 27 26i for cash, and 274 at 60 days, and the Five per Cents. at 20i at 50 days. We learn from the Paris papers that the differ ences between France and Morocco will in all pro bability be amicably arranged. According to accounts from Algiers of the 10th instant, the EMPEROR had disavowed the conduct of the chief who had at-' tacked the French troops, and the affair was con sidered at that place, as settled. The French Go vernment however intend to demand something more than an apology, and will require the EMPEROR to give a guarantee that he will no lotwjer affoni refuge to A nt-EL-KADER. when_clrivc,.. , , : k, ftigeria. This, we believe, was the main object of the expedi tion to the frontier, under the command of General LAMORICIERE. The Journal des Debats contains an article on the subject, which, from all accounts, ex presses the sentiments of the Government. " War," it sass, " has not been declared by either party. A corps of Morocco troops has; it is true, committed an act of aggression on the French territory, but there is every reason to believe that this act will be fol lowed by the most prompt reparation. The chief of that empire cannot have the presumption to provoke hostilities, the _issue of which cannot be doubtfuL If lie should fancy that he can rely upon the aid of other forces than his own, upon the support of a foreign Power, we are convinced he will very quickly be undeceived. However this may be, even though the aggression upon the French frontier, may prove to have been no more than an act of indiscipline, com mitted by fanatical soldiers, the Government of the country to which they belong is responsible, and must bear the consequence. A provocation of this nature cannot be suffered to remain unpunished, and the Consul-General of France at Tangiers has been in structed to demand the most complete reparation. This; we do not doubt, the Government of Morocco will at once grant, knowing well that it cannot resist its being enforced. France does not wish to snake reprisals, being sufficiently assured of her own strength to render any such useless exertion of it necessary. When demanding reparation for this ag gression, the French Government will also take mea sures to prevent a renewal of such acts. It will not suffer its frontier to remain exposed to the incursions of bands of fanatics, whose chiefs cannot restrain them, and will insist upon the recal into the interior of Mo rocco of those troops which now occupy the province which adjoins the Oudjah. But the principal com plaint France has to make is against the protection which ABD-EL-KADER finds on the frontier ofMorocco. France will no longer tolerate the making the fron tier of a neighbouring country an asylum for the most dangerous enemy to her domination in Africa. She cannot—she will not suffer that the Ewa should after every defeat find not only an inviolable refuge in a neutral territory, but come forth from it again after every defeat with renewed forces and other resources, under the abusive protection of an inter national right daily violated. The French Govern ment will insist upon the Emperor of MOROCCO, entering into the most unequivocal engagements, to repel ABD-EL-KADBR from his territories, and the Morocco Government will find this the surest means of avoiding that war which France does not seek, but into which she may be driven." . This is all very fair no doubt; but if the French Government had acted towards Spain on the same principle, NARVAEZ and the other refugees, including Queen CHRISTINA would not have overturned the Government of EspAßretto. The Prince DE . Jozx- VILLE left Paris on Monday morning for Toulon. A letter from that place of the 12th, says a telegraphic dispatch, "has been received to-day at the Maritime Prefecture with orders to recal immediately from the Islands of Hyeres the Suffren, of the line, and have her fitted out with all dispatch for the reception of a Rear-Admiral and his flag. This Rear-Admiral, we learn, is the Prince DE JOINVILLE, who is expected at Toulon about the 25th, to take the command of the squadron destined for the coasts of Morocco." On Monday a discussion took place in Committee on the Education Bill, which the Government intend to press forward this session. There seems, however, to be a strong feeling against it in the Chamber, as being too favourable to the Church, for of the nine Members selected to report upon the Bill only two of them are supporters of Government, and seven are determined friends of the University, namely, MM. THIERS, ST. MARC GIRARDIN, SALVANDY, RE MUSAT, QUINETTR, ODILON BARROT, and the elder DUPIN. The Conrrier Francais states that M. MARTIN (du Nord) and M. LACAVE LAPLAGNE are to leave the Ministry, the one to become President of the Court of Requests, the other. " Procureur-General du Cour des Comptes," and that their removal will give rise to the following changes :—M. DucHATEr., the present Minister of Justice, to succeed M. LACAVE LAPLAGNE as Minister of Finance, and M. DUMON, THE YUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING- JUNE 19, 1844. tody, The female defendant told the sergeant that she had as much right in Rochester-row as he or any one else. Mr. BOND—And so she might, for anything I know to the contrary. He should discharge the defendants, but had any additional evidence been offered in support of the charge, he should have felt it his duty to detain them. The defendants then left the Court without having been called upon to answer the charge, and after having been in carcerated for eleven hours for an offence which the principal witness was not in attendance to prove. Mr. BOND appeared indignant at the conduct of the police, which, to say the least of it, appeared unjustifiable. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) A ruffian, named Kent, was :charged with assaulting Mr. Francis. It appeared from the evidence, that on the previous night the prosecutor went into a house of ill fame in Cliiirch-street, St. Giles, to pay the rent (as he stated) for a young female who had once prevented him from being robbed. He was standing in the parlour when the prisoner came in, who im mediately recognised him (prosecutor) as having given evi dence against one of his associates some years ago. The prisoner ran out, and seizing a shovel, cam running into the room with it, brandishing it in his hand. He aimed a des perate blow at the prosecutor, who, however, succeeded in warding it off. The prisoner then struck him on the face and cut his mouth, from which he bled profusely. Police constable Allen fortunately came in, and prevented further violence. The prisoner applied the vilest language to the prosecutor. He was fined 21. or a commensurate term of imprisonment UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.) George Mugglestone, a man of respectable appearance, was charged before Mr. Cottingham with committing the follow ing fraud. Mr. Folkartl, the pawnbroker of the London-road, stated that the defendant came to his shop on .the preceding after noon, and producing what he termed a gold guard chain, said that it was fine gold and asked the loan of 50s. on it. His shopman, examined the article and discovered, by the usual test, that it was of a very inferior description ; and as the prisoner had succeeded in pledging one of a similar descrip tion previously, and which was since ascertained to be what is called jewellers gold, he was given into custody. The defendant, in reply to Mr. Corrnicaram, said that he was a chemist and druggist (nit of business, and that he pur chased the chains, and thought they were worth the money he asked upon them. . . . Mr. Corimaxa3t said that it was a fraud, for which the prisoner rendered himself liable to transportation on convic tion ; and as some inquiry would be made into his character, he should, therefore, adjudge. him to enter into his recogni zance of 100/. to appear on Wednesday next. Ann Musgrave was charged with stealing a valuable gold ring, the property of Mr. Bradberry, pawnbroker and sil versmith, of the London-road. It appeared that the prisoner went into the complainant's shop the preceding afternoon to pledge a shawl, and while there she contrived to steal a gold ring, by reaching over and taktbg it out of the window. When charged with the offence, she denied it, and dropped the ring on the floor at her feet. The prisoner persisted in her innocence, before the Ma.gis trate, and in reply to his questions, said that her husband was late quarter-master sergeant in the 54th regiment, at Gibraltar, from which garrison they had only recently re turned home, and that he had no pension, as he retired from the service before the expiration of his time ; that they had five children, all dependent on them, and that two out of the number were afflicted with illness. The MAGISTRATE remanded the prisoner. THE BOURSE-MONDAY, JUNE 17. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price. Price.

Mr. LEWIS said he had postponed at the last meeting his motion on the subject of appeals from India, because he was anxious to ascertain what alterations were to be made by a Bill which was before Parliament, referring to the constitu • tion of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The report on that subject not having been presented up to that time, he must again postpone his motion. He must state, however, that if the constitution of the Privy Council was not changed, so far as it referred to Indian appeals, he should take the earliest opportunity of bringing the subject under the notice of the Proprietors. It appeared to him monstrous that the points of Hindoo and Mahomedan law should be referred for final decision to a Court which was totally unacquainted with the subject. BLADE. Mr. SULLIVAN said, that after the Executive Committee had vindicated their authority in such a noble manner on a late occasion, it was not his intention to press for the papers with regard to Sinde.—(Hear, hear.) He relied with the most perfect confidence ou the good feeling of the, Directors with regard to the Ameers. EMPLOYMENT OF NATIVE INDIANS. On the motion of Mr. SULLIVAN. the clerk read the peti tition of native inhabitants of Calcutta, dated April 18, 1843, and presented at the General Court of the 20th of March last. The Hox. PROPRIETOR then proceeded to call attention to - the subject of the petition. He said the matter had been so fully discussed on former occasions, that it was not neces sary that he should go into it at any great length. Sir John Monroe had given it jis his opinion that justice and sound policy alike required that the natives of India should be en trusted with a larger share of power than they at present pos sessed. It was not necessary for him to prove that the natives were qualified to exercise the functions of civil admi nistration, for it was well known that they had already exer cised them in the most beneficial manner. The whole original civil jurisdiction of India was at that moment in the hands of the natives ; and all causes, whatever the amount at stake, or whoever might be the parties concerned, were in the first instance decided by them. Natives had been recently appointed deputy magistrates in Bengal, but that had been done by the creation. of new places. It was impossible, under the present system, to maintain the European establishment, and employ, at the same time a sufficient number of natives. Either the situations of the natives must be suppressed, or the salaries of the Europeans must be reduced. A further reduction of the salaries of Europeans, was fraught with the most mis chievous consequences. The finances exhibited increasing charges, and a stationary revenue. The Hon. Proprietor then went into a statement of the finances, from 1838 down to the latest returns. The increase of expense had not been attended with increased efficiency in the civil adminis tration. ,It was the declared opinion of Lord William Bentinck that notwithstanding the immense expendi ture which had taken place, every part of the Indian administration was a failure, and in this opinion he believed Sir Charles Metcalfe and many other eminent men entirely concurred. The remedy for this state of things was an in creased employment of the native population. There were many reasons which should induce them to give their serious consideration to that subject. They should recollect the impoverishment of many of the great fami lies of India, and the large drain, amounting now to about three millions annually, of ! Indian resources. The native states would now soon be absorbed in the English empire and there would then be ex. hibited a state of things wholly unprecedented in the history of the world. In all conquests, the conquerors had studiously identified themselves with the country of which they had obtained possession; but the very first act of those who had resided and made a fortune in India, was to free themselves from all connexion with it as soon as pos sible. The Hon. Proprietor concluded by moving for certain correspondence in reference to the employment of the native population of India. Mr. G. THOMPSON seconded the motion. The CHAIRMAN said the object of the Hon. Proprietor was to impress on the Court the importance of extending the employment of the natives as far as it could be done with propriety and prudence. The Court of Directors were as anxious to promote that object as the Hon. Proprietor himself. The only difficulty arose out of the want of qualification for civil offices, and even that difficulty the Court had endea voured to remove by sending out schoolmasters to India, and encouraging the natives to receive instruction, which would remove this objection. It was not necessary, however, that they should turn out Europeans in order to show their con currence in the principle. He concluded by reading some dis patches, for the purp•se of showing the concurrence of the Directors in the object of the mover of the resolution. After a short discussion, the motion was withdrawn. In reply to a question from Mr. SULLIVAN, The CHAIRMAN said it was true that, in consequence of the repeal of the transit duties, the duty on salt had been in creased ; but the Directors did not intend to confirm that proceeding. Mr. G. THOMPSON complained of the over-crowding of ves sels returning to India from the Mauritius. The CHAIRMAN said that was a matter over which the Directors had no control ; it came under the operation of the Passengers' Act. Mr. G. THOMPSON then gave notice, that at the next quarterly meeting he should call the attention of the Pro prietors to the treatment of his Majesty the Bing of Delhi by the Governor-General; and also to the state of the police in Bengal and Agra, and to the state of the gaols in all parts of India. Mr. MAnnYorr said he thought the Court should not separate without expressing their approbation of the course pursued by the Directors in recalling Lord Ellenborough. Mr. Cr ARKE said, the difficulty which occurred to his mind was, that they had not the facts before them.—(Hear.) He thought, however, they might safely go so far as to say, that they had such confidence in the Directors, that they were convinced that they would not have exercised their prerogative as they had done had they not felt such a step to be absolutely necessary. They should not altogether pass by the observation of one of the greatest men in this country, that the Directors had been guilty of the greatest indiscretion.—(Hear.) Such a declaration coining from so high a quarter, could not but have the effect of impairing the authority of those by whom the Governor-General had been recalled; and though he felt the greatest pain in thus alluding to the subject, he could not but think that in the language he had used, the Gallant Officer himself had been guilty of great indiscretion.—(Hear, bear.) The subject then dropped, and the Court adjourned. QVEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings at Nisi Prius before Lord DENMAN and a ➢Ziddlesex Common Jury.) M`CARTRY V. VARTY. • This was an action to recover damages for an alleged false imprisonment. The plaintiff had been employed by Mr. Dun can to cut some trees on Buckingham-terrace, in front of his residence. The defendant, one of the trustees of the terrace, claimed to have a right in that capacity to prevent any person meddling with the trees, and he gave the defendant into custody, who was taken to • Bow-street, and subsequently discharged. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff— Damages, st. Mr. Platt conducted the case for the plaintiff, and Mr. Knowles appeared for the defendant. THE QUEEN V. ANN HAMMOND. This was an indictment for perjury. The case, however, went off, in consequence of a technical error in the indict ment, and the defendant was acquitted, without going into the merits of the case. Mr. Platt was for the prosecution, and Mr. Whately and Mr. Huggins for the defence. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) A person of very gentlemanly appearance, whose name was entered on .the police charge-sheet as William Wilmot, of No: Southampton-row, Russell-square, sur veyor, and a good-looking, showily-dressed female, who gave her name, ••Eliza Elliott, living at No. 16, Warren-street, Tottenham-court-road, were placed at the bar on the follow ing charge Police-constable 161 C, stated that about two o'clock this morning, as he was proceeding on duty along Argyle-street, Oxford-street, he found the defendants standing together under the portico of the house No. 9. He desired them to go away, which they did, but in about ten minutes after wards he discovered them in the court-yard of the Earl of Aberdeen's mansion, under such circumstances as induced him to take them to the station-house:" ➢lr MALTBY asked the male defendant what he had to say in answer to the charge ?—He replied that he:had been taking too much wine. and had not the slightest recollection of what had passed. He was extremely sorry for what had taken place. Inspector Frowd of the C division said he certainly was in toxicated when brought to the station-house. Mr. MALTBY said he was liable to be indicted. The female pleaded having been persuaded to drink more than she was accustomed to. • The. Inspector said she certainly was not in liquor. Mr. MALTBY said he should fine the defendant, Wilmot, 405., or one mouth's imprisonment to hard labour. Elliott he should commit for seven days to Westminster Bridewell, without imposing any fine. The female, in a paroxysm of grief, begged that she might not be sent to prison. She was, however, consigned to the lock-up cells; and the defendant, Wilmot, not having the required sum about him, was obliged to submit to farther incarceration until he could procure it. Mr. MALTBY afterwards imposea a fine of 20s. on the female. QUEEN-SQUARE.-(THIS DAY.) Samuel Griffiths, a painter, and Nary Watson, a young woman fashionably attired, were placed before the Magistrate on the following charge : Policeman 153 B said, that shortly after 12 o'clock last night, he heard a noise which proceeded from Rochester -row. He hastened to the spot, and found his sergeant ordering the defendants, who were disorderly, to go away, and, as they would not comply with his request, he (the sergeant) told him to take them to the Station-house, which he did. The female defendant was drunk, and the male defendant, who was sober, appeared to be endeavouring to get the young woman home. Mr. BOND inquired if the . sergeant was in attendance? inspector Pearce said he was at the Home-office. The policeman, in answer to questions from the Magis trate, said he should have taken the women into custody without the intervention of any other person, had he himself found her in the condition she was in when taken into cua- FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, JUNE 14.—Several persons of distinction have arrived here within these two days. Among them G are Lord Ashburton, Lord Elcho, General Sir G. Ha milton, and Vice-Admiral Sir J. Sykes. The celebrated Fanny Elssler has arrived from Vienna, on her way to London. The magistrates and commercial council of Waiheim have just addressed a petition to the ChaMber, soliciting the imposition of a duty of at least 10f. per 1,000 killo-' grammes on hay imported into Belgium over the Dutch frontiers. The cultivation of the meadows and the trade in hay are the only resource of that commune since the completion of the iron railway ; it has, therefore, been carrried on with great spirit to arrest the distress which threatened the inhabitants. For some time they sent very large quantities to Brussels every week, but foreign competition threatens to deprive them of this last re source. The Chamber of Representatives is still dis cussing the project of law relative to labour. It is not easy to perceive what may be the result. TURKISH FRONTIERS, JUNE I.—The Montemgrins have again committed great excesses against their Turkish neighbours, attacking a caravan of Turkish merchants from the Herzowina, returning from Rajura ; they murdered part of the merchants, and carried off all their goods. They sent the heads of the murdered per sons as trophies to the Viadika, who. however, immedi ately sent back the heads, and ordered the goods to be restored. The plunder was, indeed, dispersml in all di rections, but search was making for it, and the Vlaclika sent to the Turkish Pasha assurances that satisfaction should be given. THE KING or SAXONIL—His Majesty went early yesterday morning to St. Paul's, and ascended the cathedral, at 5 A.M., to have a panoramic vie hi of London before the fires were lighted. From St. Paul's his Majesty went to Smithfield, and from thence, to Billingsgate. The King afterwards went to Covent-garden Market. His Majesty was on foot, and was attended by the gen tlemen ,f his suite. Mr. Thomas Hudson, well known for his comic songs, died this morning at his residence in Museuni-street. An entirely new race of horses has 13-en introduced into France, called nedjdi, the pure blood of which will be preserved by means of stallions and mares presented to the King in 1842 by the Viceroy of Egypt. Crosses between the ,stallions, and the finest French, German, and English mares, promise a great improvement of the breed of horses in France. The nedjdi are kept at the Arab stud-house founded by the King in the park of St. Cloud.—Paris Print. It is int;nded to have a grand national meeting of the Archers of Great Britain, in the city of York, during the • present summer. LAUNCH OF THE GIPSEY QUEEN.—On Monday, at high water, the launch of the Gipsey Queen steam-ship, from the yard of Messrs. Samuda Brothers, of Blackwall, her builders, took place. The usual interest excited on those occasions, was, in this instance, increased by the fact of the vessel being the largest iron steamer that has hitherto been launched in the river Thames. The following are a few of her leading dimensions and particulars :—Length from figure-head to taffrail, 197 feet 6 inches ; between perpen diculars, 175 feet ; breadth between paddle-boxes, 24 feet ; burthen, 495 tons. She is to be fitted up with a pair of Messrs. Samuda's patent engines, which have been constructed by them at their factory at Southwark. They are of the combined power of 240 horses, and their en tire weight, including boilers (which are tubular), water, and paddle-wheels, is only 87 tons. The steam cylinders are placed fore and aft, directly over the keel, and the two en gines are in one frame work, so that all strain to any part of the ship is avoided. Her great rise of floor, very fine lines, and model generally, were greatly admired by the assembled company, amongst whom were many scientific and practical men. Her build seems calculated to combine the advantages of a good cargo boat, and at the same time she promises to be a very fast ship. She has been built for the Waterford Steam-packet Company, and is intended to sail regularly between the port of London and the city of Waterford. After the launch, an excellent cold collation was given by the builders to a distinguished party of visitors at the Bruns wick Tavern. WILFUL MURDER AT GRAVESEND.—On Monday afternoon, Mr. Carttar, the Coroner for Kent, resumed and concluded an inquiry, which had twice been adjourned, at the Town Hall, High-street, Gravesend, on the body of Elizabeth Hartnell, aged 35, who died from the effects of violence used towards her by a man named Thomas Jury, with whom she cohabited. For a considerable time past the deceased and Jury, who possesses much property in the above town, have led a most dissolute life, and resided in Ilff/ild-street. The prisoner had been heard threatening deceased the night be fore her death; which was caused by a wound on the fore head. The jury returned a verdict of "Wilful Murder against Thomas Jury." The Coroner then made out his war rant for the committal of the accused, and in the course of yesterday morning he was removed to Maidstone gaol. A WEST INDIAMAN.—A novel specimen of what may be safely navigated across the wide Atlantic arrived in the St. Katherine's Dock yesterday. The vessel is only 41 tons burthen, and has come from Bermuda with a cargo in the short space of 31 days. She is built of ct-dar, and when closely examined, is evidently of amazing strength, consider ing the size, for she is in appearance actually more like one of the small steamers which ply between the bridges on the river, than a ship capable of journeying a voyage from the West Indies. She has not the appearance of half the strength of one of the small Mediterranean fruit vessels, the sides are not raised more than a foot from the deck, having a hand-rail about a foot higher, and the stern part of the deck quite fiat and open, after the manner of some of the small steam-boats on the Thames. She is manned entirely by blacks, was built at Bermuda, has not the slightest vestige of paint or ornament, and her cargo consists almost entirely of arrowroot. Altogether this lilliputian vessel is quite- a curiosity, and is exciting a great deal of attention. The - iail way communication between London and Newcastle (303 miles) was travelled throughout, for the first time, , yesterday, by a deputation of the London and Bir mingham Railway Directors, headed by Mr. Glyn, their chairman, who started from Euston-square about five o'clock, after an early breakfast. Preparations are being made at Ravensworth Castle for the reception of the Marquis and Marchioness of Norrnanby, who are expected to visit our races, where the Node Marquis will officiate as one of the stewards.—Tyne Mercury. ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.—In the month of June 1837, the schooner Ebenezer, a regular trader for coals to this port, J. Little, commander and part owner, sailed from Ply mouth for Shields, for a cargo of coals, having a regular crew, and a passenger named Edward Jeffery, son of the late Mr. Thomas Jeffery, who died about i three years since, and was for many years a faithful servant of J. and W. Collier, Esqrs., timber merchants, of this town. It appears the Ebenezer arrived safely at Shields, took in a cargo of coals, and sailed again for this port, having still on board the young man Edward Jeffrey, whose design had been to take a summer's excursion to Shields and return again. Coming down the North Channel when off Yarmouth, the schooner experienced a severe gale, which lasted a day and a night, when, by the violence of the storm, she was shattered, and went down ; and it was believed at the time, for no one heard anything about her for two months after, that every soul on board had perished ; however, the desk of Captain Little, with some papers inclosed, was washed into Yarmouth, at the latter end of July, when no doubt existed in the minds of the friends of those on board, but that every soul had perished—and the captain's widow, Mr. and Mrs. Jeffery and family, went all into deep mourning. But the sequel of the story is, that Jeffery and another, after having clung to the wreck for several hours, were picked up by a foreign vessel bound to India, which touched at the ape. There Jeffery and his companion were put on shore, but being destitute of money and clothing, to return to his friends, he entered on board the Arrow, which was then lying there, bound on a surveying expedition to the Falkland Islands— there it appears she has been for the last six years, and after, returning and cruising on the.goast of Africa for some time, has taken two very large slavers—and on Saturday, she ar rived in Portsmouth Harbour, where Jeffery sent a commu nication to his friends, announcing his arrival.—Devonport Independent. HERRING FIEIIERY.—We are glad to say that there is a great appearance of herrings on the coast, and that al ready has the take been so.good as to permit the fish to be disposed of at from 3d. to 4d. per dozen. As yet the nets have not been put into operation, the mode of capture being by hook rigged upon what are called " dandy handlines," the abundant produce from which holds out every hope of a successful fishing when the ordinary means are brought into deen Journal. ri S MARY OF 11.
