TOTTIE, Esq., of Leeds ; seconded by JAM El 3 Hrivwoon, Esq., of Manchester : That wo are bound at the earliest moment to express our ral feigned and earnest gratitude to Sir Robert Peel, the Lord Chancel; or, Mr. Gladstone, the Attorney-General, and the rest of her Majesty's Government, for the noble and disinterested protection which Gas y have afforded, ou the simple ground of justice, to bodies small in tier numbers, comparatively uninfluential in their position, chiefly poli tical opponents, and obnoxious to so many for their dissent, and t heir peculiar tenets. Moved by THOMAS BOLTON, Esq., of Liverpool ; seconded by J , x , 17.4 ASHTON YATES, Esq., of London That our deep and heartfelt thanks aro duo also to the Marqui9 of Lansdowne, Lord Brougham, Lord Cottenham, Lord Campbell, Lord John Russell, and Lord Sandon, Mr. Macaulay, Mr. Shell, Mr. Be r nal, and Mr. Monckton Milnes, and to the other eminent men litlao havo given to this measure so much and such energetic support. Moved by SAMUEL Satin!, Esq., of London; seconded by 110/tieTIO BOLINGBROKE, Esq., of Norwich : That we cannot but look on the marked concurrence of All the great Statesmen and Lawyers of the day, in a mea slice for the relief of a small and unpopular sect, and on the determined disregard to the dictatorial and bigoted denunciationi. of so many of their constituents, which 307 Members of the Hote so of Commons have shown in its support, as an animating proof that - the great principles of Civil and Religious Liberty are not retrogra sing in this country, nor are likely to retrograde. Moved by Tuosiss REYNOLDS, Esq., of Bristol ; seconded by- WO SEM DAVY, Esq., of Exeter : That although it would be a disgrace to treat this measure asbelrvr, in any degree, the victory of a sect, yet after all the foul aspersim so unsparingly thrown on our ancestors and ourselves, for the mod a in which they and we have dealt with our religions and charitub: e property, it is with extreme delight we have heard the complete an d triumphant vindication which their acts and our own have at Icy t received from men unfettered by legal technicalities—unbiassed; :in their position—and pre-emineutly competent to judge upon Vac question.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING-, JUNE 8, 18 44 had required any, we should readily find it in some passages of a discussion which took place on Tuesday night, upon a motion brought forward by Mr. TlumE, relative to the conduct of the magistrates and police of Shrewsbury in reference to a licensed hawker or ped lar, named ALFRED MOORE. The facts of this case are extremely simple. On the Ist of September last, MooRE was pursuing his calling in the market- place of Shrewsbury, when a policeman, named THOMAS, went up to him and, taking his basket from him, de sired him to-produce his license. This was done, and the constable examined and read the document, which being, in the language of diplomatic treaties, "found I to be in good and due form," was returned to the hawker, accompanied with the somewhat impertinent invitation to " take up his basket, and go about his business." The hawker, listening only to the sugges- tion3 of a natural resentment, and not having the fear of Q 55 before his eyes, warmly exclaimed, " You have no right to take my box !"—a challenge of his autho rity so contumacious and astounding as to induce an exasperated retort from the keeper of the peace, suc ceeded by a rejoinder equally warm from the hawker. Thereupon the police constable took the hawker into custody, and locked him up for two hours, at the ex piration of which period the man was bailed out. Next morning he was taken before the magistrates, who, after hearing witnesses, retired for several hours ; and then the Town-clerk announced to MooRE, that the Mayor deemed him guilty, and, in the exercise of a summary jurisdiction, the bench sentenced the man to three months' imprisonment —not for hawking goods without a license, but " for having on his person letters which seemed intended to levy contributions on charitable persons under false pretences." Now, for the fact of the vexatious conduct of the policeman, the only plea in extenuation set up, was—that Moos]; was drunk at the time ; but since this averment was sworn to only by the very DOGBERRY who first detained his basket, and then read his license—and is stoutly denied by MOORE, not much credit can be given to it. And if it be allowed its fullest weight in the matter, it has nothing to do with the grave grounds of objection taken by Mr. WAX LEY and Mr. AGLIONBY to the whole proceeding, as we shall presently show. On the other hand, Mr. Hums, before bringing the matter under the consideration of the House, took the precaution of instituting inquiries in the proper quarters—and had ascertained that " MOORE had been a regularly licensed hawker for several years ; that he had been appointed to sell goods, and bore an ex cellent character." So that were this feature of the case an essential one, as it is not, the presumption arising on the balance of evidence would be clearly in MOORE'S favour. Then the account given by MOORE of the suspicious papers found upon him would have fully satisfied any judges less astute or fastidious than the Shrewsbury quorum. Sir JAMES GRAHAM stated that "when the man was searched at the station-house, a certificate purporting to be signed by eleven persons, who had given him money in charity, was found upon him, recommending him as a fit object of charity. Several frauds had been committed at the same time in the neighbour- hood, by a person having a certificate in the French language; and the magistrates, after an examination, were satisfied that the certificate signed by the eleven persons and the French certificate were both written by the prisoner. (Perhaps this morbid horror of a fraud perpetrated " in the French language" led to a little "JACK CADE legislation" and precipitancy— " He bath a book in his pack with red letters in it." " Nay, then he is a conjurer !" "He can make obligations and write (French) court-hand." " Away with him . . . hang him with his pen and inkhorn about his neck.") But now what was the explanation offered by Mr. Hu= in answer to the above charge ? " The only ground for such a charge appeared to be that, in the house where MooRE lodged, resided some persons who had carried on the pra , :tice of sending circular letters asking charity, coupled with the cir cumstance that there was found in his possession a certain card containing the names of Lord ALFORD, and several other persons, with sums of money oppo site them. That, however, as he (Mr. }luau) was given to understand was neither more nor less than the amount of money received in return for goods sold at the houses of those different persons. Three or four individuals carried on the same trade or con nexion ; and it was a mutual agreement between them that each should enter upon a card the quantity of goods sold to, and the prices obtained from, every person who dealt with him." This accounted for the card with the names of Lord ALFORD and others upon it, found in MooßE's possession. But we owe an apology to our readers for dwelling on these facts, incidental and subsidiary as they are—whether the evidence upon them bear one way or the other—to the two main points which are admitted by Sir JAMES GRAHAM himself, and, being admitted, establish a case of gross oppression, if not scandalous illegality against the committing magistrates, and of unconsti tutional connivance thereat, or toleration thereof, on the part of the Right Hon. Secretary. Mr. HUME sensibly observed that there was no other evidence against the prisoner but that of the police °filter. What, has been already stated proves clearly enough that TuomAs had behaved in the first instance, at once so cruelly and ridiculously to MooRE, that no man in his senses will attach any value to his testimony. Sir j under a st range h a ll uc i na ti on as to what passed, and th e nature o f hi s own GR had AM Just said, connexion or responsibility or functions in the affair, " it was impossible for him, in that House, to try A the case over again." (Or in any other house, we trust, for the sake of humanity, of law, and of the rights of the poor.) Who had asked Sir JAMES to try the question ? He was answering only to Mr. HUME'S appeal to him, whether he (Mr. HumE) had not brought the subject under the Right Hon. Baronet's notice immediately he knew of the facts; and what Sir JAMES had done in consequence in communicating with the magistrat ? But, and we crave serious attention to this remarkable conversation— 1. " Mr. WATCLICY inquired of the Right Hon. Baronet, whether he considered it lawful that the papers of a man shcadd be taken from him and exa mined, on a charge of drunln‘n'h e e s n s ? h ,, he w as only Sir JAMES GRATIAM evaded this question, and merely restated the facts, that the man was taken to the station-house, imprisoned, and searched. Now we affirm that this was an illegal act on the part of the police constables; and we greatly doubt whether the magistrates ought to have taker cogni zance at all of any papers thus illegally brought before them. 2. " Mr. AGLIONBY understood that this man was convicted for obtaining money on false pretences. He had yet to learn that a magistrate had the power of summary conviction on such a charge. There must be an indictment, tried by a jury, before a man could be convicted and sentenced on such a charge. But the Right Hon. Gentleman had thought fit to say, that he considered the magistrates had rightly punished the man in question on that charge." This averment and rebuke, on the part of one of the shrewdest and soundest legal authorities in the House, might have awakened a man of less profound egotism, and overweening self-complacency, than Sir JAMES GRAHAM, to a sense of the monstrous illega lity, as well as oppressiveness, of the proceedings charged in the allegations of Mr. HUMS, then under consideration. But the Right Hon. Baronet, with a presumption (we must call it) of which our memory supplies us with few parallels in the history of modern Parliamentary debates—" protested against bringing a question of law in that House against the legal acuteness of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman." But he would state his impressions, "as a matter of courtesy," to the Learned Gentleman. The Right Honourable Baronet did not more completely forget what was due to the character and station of the Home Secretary, when he undertook to vindicate the em ployment of spies in the masquerade of shorthand writers in Ireland, than in proposing to discharge his duty of affording the explanation required by another Hon. Member of the House, as a " matter of cour tesy" forsooth ! But Mr. AGLIONDY " wanted none of the Right Hon. Gentleman's courtesy," and, still pressing for an explanation, obtained one from Sir JAMES, on which Mr. WAKLET proceeded to found, we repeat, the strongest possible presumption of op pressive and illegal conduct in the proceeding and finding of the Shrewsbury magistrates. In the course of a discussion which took place last night in the House of Commons on the subject of the Scotch Parishes Bill, Sir JAMES GRAHAM had the hardihood to take the Hon. Member for Perth to task for what he was pleased to call his inconsistency. Those who live in glass houses should never fling stones, says the old adage, and, of all men in the world, the Home Secretary is the very last who should have taunted any one with vacillating or inconsistent con duct ; for he is himself the most perfect speci men that the present age can show of political Jim Crowism—a peculiarity in his public cha racter to which Mr. Fox MATJLE thus point edly alluded :—" The Right Honourable Baronet had accused him of inconsistency. Now, he thought he ought to have been the last person to make such a charge. The man who wrote Corn and Currency,' and who now sat as the supporter of the agricultural interest, ought to be very cautious in charging an other with inconsistency." Mr. Fox MAULE went on to observe, by way of more effectually pointing his sarcasm, " In a celebrated caricature publication of the day, the Right Hon. Baronet was represented as receiving a deputation from the distressed thimble riggers. One of these thimble-riggers was made to ask him if he had any objection to allow the game of round-about ;to which he replied, Oh, no ; for I have patronised round-about all my life.' " This was a home-thrust, clear and dextrous as one of ANGELO'S best lunges; and though Sir JAMES GRAHAM, like the rest of the House, is represented as having laughed heartily at it, yet his laugh, we suspect, was of that bitter, vindictive character which has been called, the risus sardonicus. But Mr. Fox MAuLE's pungent sarcasm does not apply to the Netherbyßaronet alone. It is far snore comprehensive in its application. It is a hit at the whole Conservative majority—to say no thing oftheir expediency-loving Premier who, like his il lustrious colleague, the Home Secretary, is notorious for having "patronised round-about all his life." What were the recent decisions on the Factory Bill in the House of Commons but a game of round-about, played by a set of Conservative political thimble riggers ? What is the conduct pursued by Sir R. PEEL towards the monopolists and the free traders—now coquetting with the one, now with the other party, and juggling both—but a game of round about, at which, however, no one is allowed to win but himself ? What is the system of policy pursued towards Ireland—a policy that seems to have neither beginning, middle, nor end ; that is bottomed on no broad, intelligible princi ples of action ; that neither retrogrades nor ad vances, but goes round and round the same dull, hacknied course ;—what, we ask, is this system of policy but a game of round-about, depending solely on the doctrine of chances ? But, perhaps, we ought not to allege it as a fault against Ministers, that they are partial to the round-about scheme of Government, for it is from this very vacil lation and inconsistency of their's that we derive our chief hopes of extorting from them, one day or other, all that we could desire. Were they sternly and irrevocably wedded to principle—were they the incorrigible slaves of prejudice, as were some of the Tory bigots of the old school—faint and dis tant, indeed, would be the hopes of the Liberal party of ever obtaining anything like substantial reform ; still fainter and more distant the hopes of the Leaguers of ever procuring the total abolition of the corn-laws. But, thanks to the inconsistency of Ministers—to their love of temporising, and their inordinate fancy for the game of political round-about, our chances of obtaining, one by one, all our demands in the way of reform and free-trade, are by no means few or remote. If we can expect nothing from the good, wise, and correct principles of the PEEL Cabinet, we may expect everything from its apprehensions, and its quick, keen sense of ex pediency. It is no reason, because it declares against the corn-laws to-day, that it should persist in that declaration to-morrow. On the contrary, the pro bability is—that is to say, if the reasoning derived from experience is to have any weight—that the instant Ministers perceive that the country is ge nerally resolved on an entire abolition of the bread tax, that very instant they will give way, and "go the whole hog" as Corn-law Repealers. The Paris papers are filled with speculations on the unfavourable aspect of affairs in Algiers. It has been for some days known that the Emperor of Moitocco had joined ABD-EL-KADER, and proclaimed a kind of holy war against the French invaders; the report is now confirmed officially. Marshal SouLT, the President of the Council and Minister of War, in the debate in the Chamber of Deputies on Wednes day, defended an item (10,000 f.) in the credits re quired to establish certain military posts in Algiers, and in doing so made the following reference to the state of affairs in that part of the world : " The measures ordered by Marshal Bugeaud have been approved by me, because I consider them notonly useful, but indispensable; they were the more expedient because the holy war' has been proclaimed in Morocco. A considerable concentration of troops, amounting to between 12,000 and 15,000 men, has taken place opposite our forts at Ouchda. Now, on one of the points of the extreme limits of the Tell, which is opposite to Ouchda, and in advance of Tlertnen, for tifications have been commenced, and it is our anxious desire that they be completed before the war breaks out. In that situation, I ask the Chamber, in what point of view am I to consider the reduction of 10,000 f. proposed by the committee? When the army shall hear of this discussion—when those who are now in presence of the forces of Morocco shall hear of the proposed retrenchment of those 10,000 f, what impres• sion will it produce upon their minds? Will not that por tion of the army think that the devotion which it evinces by confronting the dangers with which it is menaced, and that the efforts it has made to cover itself by throwing up fortifi cations calculated to increase i:s strength, ,entitled it to better feeling? I maintain that, in the province of Oran, as well as at Tiaret, Saida, and Sebdon, our troops are in presence of an enemy's army. The formation of that army is easily accounted for. Driven from Algeria, Abd-el- Kader sought refuge in that portion of the Desert which is considered a neutral territory. Since then he has repaired to Morocco, rallied to his standard several tribes of the em pire ever ready to disobey their Sovereign when it suits their convenience, and who, blinded by religious fanaticism, were easily fascinated by the exhortations of Abd-el-Kader, and insomuch that the Emperor was unable to resist the impplse communicated to him by his subjects, and was obliged to proclaim ' the holy war.' This result might have been expected, for Abd-el-Kader, being left without any re sources, and sexing the reluctance of the tribes of Algeria to make common cause with him, directed his attention to wards Morocco, where either by threats or other means he contrived to secure the acquiescence or co-operation of the Emperor of Morocco. Thus this concentration of troops took place at Ouchda, and the two armies are now in presence. I hope, nevertheless, that no war will have ensued. I have every reason to think that the sight of our troops, and the measures taken by our Generals, will suffice to check the warlike ardour of the hordes of Morocco. But I would not wish, when our troops are so devoted—when the Generals in command of them display so much ardour and adopt such wise dispositions, that a manifestation from the Chamber should induce a belief that their conduct is not sufficiently appreciated." The accounts from private sources are beginning to assume a disastrous complexion. Galignanis Mes senger of Thursday contains the following from a Toulon letter of the 3d inst.:— " We have received most afflicting news from the province of Constantine, dated the 26th ult. The Duke d'Aumale had left at Biscara a very small garrison, composed only of Lieutenant Pettigand, Commandant ; Sub-Lieutenant Cro chard, and Aide-Surgeon-Major Arcelin, with about 40 men, from the battalion of the Constantine Fusiliers. This small corps was intended to form the nucleus of a new battalion, to be raised from among the tribes in the environs of Biscara. Of all these, only a sergeant-major, named Pelisse, escaped. The new recruits opened the gates of the Casbah during the night to Mahommed Seghir, the Kalifat of Abd• el-Kader and his followers, who surprised our men in their sleep, and killed them all. Plunder became general, and 7,000 f., left with the Commandant to pay his men, and all the cannon, muskets, ammunition, and other stores, were carried off. This unfortunate affair is said to have encouraged the sur rounding tribes to take up arms. The fatal news having reached the Prince while in the mountains of the Ouled Sultan, he instantly marched to Biscara with a column of 3,000 men. Ile arrived on the 18th, but the Kalifat had left on the preceding day. The third battalion of the African Light Infantry marched from Constantine on the 24th, for Biscara, to form its garrison." The Journal des Debuts has an account to the same effect; and the Siecle is enabled to speak more in detail as to the results of this affair :-- " On the 11th ult., at 2 o'clock A.M., a false attack was di rected against the Casbah, and immediately afterwards the conspirators in the town rushed upon the remainder of the garrison, composed of a few French and a number of natives, and put every one of them to death. The number of victims of that treason is estimated at 50, amongst whom were two officers, a surgeon, several sub-officers, a few workmen at tached to the army, and a number of Turks who had refused to take part in the plot. The Kalifat carried of 60,000 ball cartridges, 80,000 francs, 300 muskets, 300 uniforms, and two pieces of artillery." The Opposition journals, so ready to denounce the policy of the Government on all other occasions, strongly support it in its determination to maintain its ground in Africa at any cost, either of blood or treasure, and advocate even an extension of conquests in the territory, where it is with the utmost difficulty that the army can keep what has been gained; th e warmth of their zeal seems, indeed, rather to increase with every new disaster. The Government does not seem indisposed to take advantage of the popular feeling; great preparations are going on for the trans mission of additional troops to Africa. The Presse announces as certain that "his Majesty the KING of the FRENCH will pay a visit to the QUREN Of ENGLAND at her residence in the Isle of Wight."

A preliminary Meeting of the friends of Ireland, was held at the British Coffee-house, Cockspur street, this day, at two o'clock, to consider the pre• sent state of that country—the conduct pursued to wards Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P.—and the propriety of calling a public meeting of the inhabitants of West minster, to express their feelings upon these subjects, when it was resolved that a requisition to the High Bailiff, desiring him to call a public meeting, to be held in Covent-garden, be forthwith signed and presented. The requisition is already signed by the following Members of Parliament :—Sir John East hope, Bart., Thomas Wyse, Esq., Milner Gibson, Esq., Thomas S. Dunccimbe, Esq., Howard Elphinstone, Esq., Reginald Blewitt, Esq., Benjamin Hawes, Esq., Capt.Pechell, Sir R. Bulkeley, P. Somerset Butler,Esq., Robert Wallace, Esq., William Collins, Esq., John Collett, Esq., Lewis Ricardo, Esq., W. H. Watson, Esq., Sergeant Murphy, John Trelawney, Esq., the Hon. E. Bouverie. BUCKINGHAM PALACE.—A Diplomatic Levee was held this morning at the Palace, at which the Foreign Monarchs received the congratulations of the different Foreign Ministers upon their arrival in this country. Their Excellencies all appeared in their brilliant uni forms and costumes, and were presented to the Em peror of Russia an d King of Saxony by their respec tive Ministers at this Court. CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) The Lord Chancellor, having disposed of the unopposed lunatic petitions that stood on the paper for hearing, pro ceeded with the part-heard bankrupt petition in re Chambers, which occupied the Court the remainded of the morning. VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Sir JAMES WIGRAM ) The Court was engaged during the morning in hearing and disposing of a great number of short causes, unopposed peti tions, and motions presenting no feature worthy of notice. - (Before Sir J. K. BRUCE.) His Honour, having gone through the paper, which con sisted of cause and bankrupt petitions, rose at half-past 12. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) DOE DE3L ANGELL V. ANGELL. This is the celebrated ejectment case, which relates to the possession of the Angell estates. It was tried in Surrey at the last autumn assizes, and a verdict was found for the plain ti The present Solicitor-General had obtained a rule nisi for a new trial, and this morning Mr. Sergeant Shee and Mr. Petersdorff sh.wed cause against the rule. The arguments, which were purely of a technical character, were not finished when we went to press. BAIL COURT.--(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice WicarrmAx). IN THE MATTER or HARRIS, MAYOR OF ABLNGDON. Mr. V. LEE, in this case, applied for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against Mr. Harris, Mayor of Abingdon. The application arose out of alleged improper conduct on the part of the Mayor, in the discharge of his magisterial duties. It appeared, from the affidavits in the case, that the proceedings out of which the present application originated, took place in the year 1842, in consequence of a distraint for a borough rate made upon James Westpool ; and that the Mayor bad privately . got an appraisement made, which he kept concealed. In the middle of April last these facts came to the knowledge of the parties. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN asked why the application was not made earlier in the term. Mr. LEE said that the parties were trading in different localities, and some time was lost in getting the affidavits prepared. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN said that the applicant had al lowed the Easter Term to pass by, and he now applied so late in the present term that it would be impossible for the de fendant to come in and answer. No sufficient cause for this delay was shown, and he should, therefore, refuse the motion. EXCHEQUER COURT-THIS DAY (Sittings at Nisi Prius.) COOKE V. MARKWET.L. Mr. Sergeant Dow Luca (with whom was Mr. Marsh) ap peared for the plaintiff; Mr. Jervis and another conducted the case for the defendant. This was an action to recover 1501., money won by the de fendant from the plaintiff, at one sitting, at the well-known game of " loo." The facts of the case, as detailed by the counsel for the plaintiff, and in evidence, were briefly these : On the 29th of March last, the plaintiff, who is an attorney, lost the above-mentioned sum, which W. R. Markwell won. The defendant is the manager of Long's Hotel, Bond street, which is the property cf his father, the proprietor of the North and South American Coffee-house, Threadneedle street. On three several occasions the plaintiff, the defend ant, and three other persons played at 100, in a private room, at the Rainbow Tavern, Fleet-street. On each occasion Mr. Cooke was a considerable loser, which he attributed to ill luck; but on the third occasion he had his suspicions aroused by the conduct of a person to whom he had not long been introduced, and who, he subsequently ascertained, was a professed " black leg," although of gentlemanly appear ance and manners, and living in some style at the west end of the town. The plaintiff, on the occasion alluded to, having lost all the ready cash which he had about him, the landlord of the house, Mr. Isaac Argent, with whom all file parties were acquainted, gave an I 0 U to the defendar.t, for so much of the , money lost by the defendant, as he was unable then to pay. , Ile became answerable for 961. for the plaintiff, and a small& sum for himself, both of which were paid on the fol lowing day, by Mr. Argent. The action was brought under an Act passed in the reign of Queen Anne, which provides that if a person, at one sitting at cards, lose more than 10/. to another, he may receive the amount within threee months of the day on which he lost it. Mr. JERVIS having addressed the WIT for the defendant, Mr. Baron PARKE summed up the evidence, and the jury, after much deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff, for 961. UNION HALL.—(THIS DAY.) Elizabeth. Davis and 211ary Croker, two women of the town, were charged before Mr. Cottingham, with stealing a valuable Chinese shawl and a piece of silk, the property of the steward of the Marquis of Bute, East Indiaman. It appeared the complainant had come ashore with the above articles, with the intention of forwarding them to Bel fast. In passing along the borough, however, he was accosted by the two prisoners, whom he accompanied to several public houses, and ultimately was induced to go home with them. He remained in the house for about two hours, being at the time intoxicated; and when he came to his senses, he missed the articles above mentioned, and, having called a policeman, gave them into custody. The complainant manifested a strong disinclination to pro ceed with the case, saying that he would rather be at the loss of the property than be compelled to appear against the prisoners, particularly as the ship he belonged to was out ward bound, and he would lose his situation if compelled to attend the sessions. Mr. COTTINGHAM said ho regretted the complainant could not remain at home to presecute the prisoners, who were well known as women of the most abandoned and profligate cha racter. Under these circumstances he (the Magistrate), however unwillingly, must discharge them. John Abraham , a man advanced in years, was charged with committing an indecent assault on Charlotte Ann Butler, a child under nine years of age. The prisoner denied the charge, and said it was trumped up by his wife and the child. Mr. COITINGHAM said that the offence was one of a most aggravated description, and that he should commit the pri soner for trial.

S In the House of Lords last evening, after the :pre sentation of a few petitions, some interest was ex cited by the entrance of his Majesty the King of SAXONS-, w ho took a seat that had been placed for him opposite the Bench of Bishops, and near the Woolsack. Ilis MAJESTY exchanged a few words with the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, but did. not enter into any general conversation with the Noble Lords present. The occasion of his MAJESTY'S visit was rs ther unfavourable, as the business was very unimports nt. The LORD CHANCELLOR asked Lord MONTRA OGLE to postpone his motion on the corn-laws, as the bring ing it on then would be exceedingly inconvenimit to the Government. _ _ _ Lord MONTEAGLE assented, regretting the delay he had experienced in bringing it forward. M onday was named as the day on which the discussion, is to be taken. Lord BROUGHAM and the Marquis of LATisnow - NE both expressed a hope that it would not be :agaiu postponed. Lord CAMPBELL, as a remedy for these frequent delays, suggested that their Lordships might with advantage recur to the old system of meeting at eight o'clock in the morning ! The Duke of WELLINGTON expressed his readiness to be in his place at that hour, but with some irony remarked that younger men, who had more to do than himself, might find it difficult to attend so early. The motion of Lord MONTEAGLE was eventually postponed till Thursday next, and their Lordships adjourned. The House of Commons met at the usual hour. The SPEAKER communicated to the House the acknowledgment by the Governor-General of India of the vote of thanks to the army of India, passed by the House on the 20th of February last. Nu nerous petitions were presented both for and against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Mr. Siam gave notice that, in Committee on the Bill, he should propose a possession of sixty years in stead of twenty-five. On the motion that the House do resolve itself into Committee on the Parishes (Scotland) Bill, Mr. D uziclN M`NEILL explained the object of the Act. It had for its object to facilitate the division of parishes in Scotland. By the law as it now existed, the patronage of a new parish belonged to the patron of the old one; but where other parties bore the bur den of erecting the new parish church, it seemed but reasonable that some other provision should be made, saving, of course, the rights of the heritors. The present Bill gave a power, in such cases, to attach a &strict to the church, and to erect it into a separate parish, without the consent of the heritors, who, as they were not called upon to contribute, had certainly no right to interfere capriciously to deprive persons of that religious instruction for which they were themselves willing to pay. Mr. Fox MAuLE said no necessity had been shown for the Bill, or for legislating on the subject at all, and moved that it be committed that day six months. A discussion ensued, in which the provisions of the Act were discussed in connexion with the late move ment in the Church of Scotland. During this dis cussion the King of SAXONY entered the House ; he sat for some time in the chair of the Sergeant-at- Arms. _ _ Sir J. GRAHAM stated that the principle of the Bill was one that had always been upheld in the best days of the Scotch Church. He charged the Member for Perth (Mr. Fox MAULE) with inconsistency. It was scarcely a fortnight since that Right Hon. Gentleman brought forward a motion for the aboli tion of subscription of tests in the Scottish Univer sities, and yet on the previous night he was found in the course of the debate advocating the continuance of tests. This reference to a recent debate being irre gular, was followed by loud cries of " Order." After the usual explanations and apologies, Mr. F. MAULE'S amendment was rejected, on a division, by a majority of 54, and the House went into Committee, on the Bill. In the discussion on the first clause Mr. Fox MAULE retorted the charge of Sir JAMES GRAHAM. He thought the last person to make a charge of in consistency ought to be the Right Hon. Baronet himself. "1 he man who wrote Corn and Currency,' and who now sat as the supporter of the agricultural interest, ought to be very cautious in charging another with inconsistency. In a celebrated caricature pub lication of the day, the Right Hon. Baronet was represented as receiving a deputation from the dis tressed thimble-riggers.—(Laughter.) One of these thimble-riggers was made to ask the Right Hon Baronet if he had any objection to allow a game of round-about ? and the Right Hon. Gentleman replied —` Oh, no, for I have patronised round-about all my life.'—(Great laughter, in which Sir JAMES GRAHAM joined.) The Right Hon. Baronet should be careful how he made a charge of inconsistency against another."—(Hear.) The Committee divided on the clause, which was carried by a majority of 32. Another division took place on clause 8, which was also carried by a majority of 36 ; and on clause 9, which was carried by 41. The remaining clauses were agreed to, and the House resumed. The report is to be received on Monday. The House adjourned at a Quarter to Ten o'clock. We know of no functionaries who require more careful looking after than the police constabulary of our towns, and th 3 Right llon. Secretary of our Home Department. We have had such frequent occasion to advert to the reported cases of gross mis conduct on the part of the one, and we detect so many arbitrary and unconstitutional tendencies in the ad ministration of the other, that this statement will need no further commentary for its justification. But if it
