GLOBE.—From the time of John Frost's memorable attack on Newport to the accession of the present Mi nistry, scarcely a day, certainly not a week, was allowed to pass without our being reminded that John Frost was put into the commission of. the peace by the Whigs, An explanation was given, by which all blame was re moved from the appointment. At the time it was made there was nothing which impeached the fitness of John Frost for a borough magistrate ; and he was removed immediately his unfitness became apparent. Still the fact was undeniable that a man who had been a municipal magistrate had become a furious agitator ; and, instead of preserving the Queen's peace, had headed a furious mob, and involved himself and others in the guilt and punishment of high treason. These facts were un questionable. Tory orators and Tory journals urged the- necessity of making the fullest inquiries into the character and habits of individuals, before they were placed in the commission of the peace. We have no wish to revive the question ; which, for any advantage it can confer on the Tory party, they may have their own way. The appointment of John Frost might be worthy of blame; if so, the present Ministry • has been consistent in its practice of borrowing from its prede cessors in office—only making it always a little worse. The late election at Woodstock has stirred up some rather unpleasant matters ; but that has been done in a sort of " unnatural contest ;" and, as it lies entirely among the Tories, we may leave them to settle it among themselves. It has, _however, reminded us that the ,Diike of Marlborough is Lord Lieutenant of the county of Oxford ; and that he received the appointment from the present Ministry. The Duke of Marlborough was a man not altogether unknown as the Marquis of Blandford ; as may be seen, not only in the daily papers of 1838,. but in Adolphus and Ellis's "Re ports," vol. viii., p. 908, where we find that, on making a rule for a criminal information absolute, the Lord Chief Justice said, " I have no difficulty in saying that if it concerned Lord Blandford alone, I would not have consented to make this rule absolute. His own affidavit throws the greatest imputation on his conduct towards the lady mentioned in these publications; and I cannot pronounce that her statements on the subject are per- jured." For the rest of the case, those who are curious ' in such matters may refer to the documents we have alluded to. The length and breadth of the gross du plicity, profligacy, heartless seduction, and subsequent abandonment of the hapless female: whom: his Lord ship entrapped by a pretended marriage, were set forth in the affidavits which were published in the daily journals at the time, and are alluded to in the judgment pronounced by the Court, as reported in the volume from which we have quoted. We ask, if a Lord Lieu tenant had caused a commoner, concerning whom such an opinion, in such a case, had been expressed by the highest criminal court in the kingdom, what would have been said of him, and of the Government which allowed him to retain his Lord Lieutenantcy ? The case in the Queen's Bench could not have been unknown to the Government at the time of the Duke's appointment as Lord Lieutenant. To say nothing of the notoriety of the facts, and the scandal their publication fastened on the Marquis of Blandford (now Duke of Marlborough), Sir W. Follett was engaged in the case, and he was So licitor-General at the time the Duke of Marlborough was appointed. We are not disposed to rake up the errors of a man's youth, and allege them as reasons for excluding him from decent society or from office. Still, we have a right to ask, what evidence had the Government, which made him Lord Lieutenant of a comity_ in 1842, that the Duke of Marlborough was then a better man'than he was; . as Marquis of Blandford, in 1838? And if any, at what precise time they had reason to conclude that the respectability of character and decency of conduct commenced ? The criminal information was granted by the COurt, as we have seen, for the sake of his family. Was the Lord Lieutenancy conferred for the sake of his borough ? One word as to the course the Government is, we conceive, bound to pursue under present circumstances. It is the practice of the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when his attention is called to grave charges against a magistrate, to require a contradiction, .or ex planation ; which, if rot satisfactory, is followed by striking the delinquent's name out of the commission of the peace. On Monday last grave charges, affect ing the public and private character of the Duke of Marlborough, were publicly stated by Mr. Humfrey, the Government candidate, in the Town Hall of Wood stock, and in the presence of the Noble Duke's friends and retainers—charges which, if true, would justify the interference of the Lord Chancellor to prevent the party against whom they were made and sub stantiated, from continuing to act as a magistrate. How much more when the Lord Lieutenant, the head of the county magistracy, is thus accused, if he do not successfully repel the accusations? The charges were not contradicted at the time—no contradiction of them haS yet nppeared. If the Government do nut interfere, and that very shortly, the subject is of sufficient importance to justify an allusion to it in Parliament. Some Member, of sufficient weight and influence to secure the attention of the House, should question Sir James Graham on the subject; and ask how long the control of the county of Oxford, and the appointment of its magistrates, shall be allowed to remain in the hands of a person who was de clared, by the highest court of the land, to have behaved too ill to be entitled to have a rule fur a criminal infor mation made absolute ; and whose subsequent conduct, as was shown by the proceedings at Woodstock on Mon day last, is more than doubtful, STANDARD.—Elsewhere will be seen the extract from Mr. Ferrand's speech, which is to be the subject of consideration with the House of Commons to-night. We can find in that extract ro allegation which any man can be required to prove, because we do not see any alit , gation which, even if true, it would be possible to prove either by documents or by the mouths of witnesses. Nither do we see in the extract anything is hich a deeply prejudiced man might not conscientiously. believe to be true, though to en unprejudiced man the extreme in justice of Mr. Ferrand's deductions are manifest. As it has been said before, Mr. Ferrand puts distinctly for ward the grounds of his opinion with the opinion itself, and pretends to have no evidence in reserve—what more can he be called upon to prove ? What, then, can the House of Commons do in the matter? The House may, no doubt, by resolution condemn Mr. Ferrand's two _propositions affecting Sir James Graham and Mr. Hogg—as every rational and un prejudiced man •in the country has already con demned them•—but though there are precedents fur such condemnatory resolutions of speeches, pamphlets, and sermons, the effect produced ,by them has left little to tempt to au imitation of such precedents, and we doubt whether Sir James Graham and Mr. Hogg would not be the principal sufferers, by leaving to generations, to whom their worth and integrity may be less perfectly known than to the present, a record of grave charges pre ferred against them. The same record will, indeed, carry the evidence of their honourable acquittal by the House of Commons; but,- alas! we must not expect that the judgments of the Parliaments of our day will be more respected by posterity than we are in the habit of respecting thejudgments of former Parliament , . The view of the present effect of any harsh course adopted towards the Hon. Member for Knaresborough is not more satis factory. The case itself warns us of the danger of imputing motives ; and the loyalty of the Learned Member for Bath, proved in both hemispheres—the loyalty of Mr. Hume, demonstrated by his Canadian correspondent:tie—and the loyalty of the author of the appropriation clause and the confederate of Mr O'Connell—the loyalty of the three movers of this unhappy debate forbids that we should assign to them any bad motives; but though we arc forbidden to speak of motives, the House of Commons (we believe, but are not quite sure), [permits to intimate consequences, and we think that with w whatever motive or purpose Messrs. Roe buck, Hume, and Ward have kindled this broil, the Consequences of permitting it to pioceed must be such as Parliament ought to avoid if possible. Mr. Ferrand has complained loosely and generally of attempts made to crush him and to crush another -gentleman, because they are opposed upon principle to the New Poor-law, and to long hours of labour in the factories. Will riot a harsh proceeding against the Hon. Member, upon the very slight grounds afforded• by his speech, be eagerly seized upon by pre judiced persons as irrefragable confirmation of his complaint ; will he not, and with apparent reason too (considering by whom the matter has been stirred 0, be treated as the victim of the economists, the martyr of the poor and of the factory children. This will give him a degree of influence which a Christian Conservative such as Mr. Ferrand's will not abuse, but it will also ersate a feeling of resentment against his antagonists (we will not call them persecutors) which even his vast influence, will be required to keep within proper bounds. For our parts, we see but one course to pun sue, that will be at once just to Sir James Graham and Mr. Hogg, and to the quiet of the menu factuning districts, and that is. to expunge from the records of Parliament every word that has passed upon this affair since it was first opened by Mr. Roebuck, and then pass to other business, as if the subject had never been alluded to. This might be profitably fol lowed by a resolution of the House, declaring its aver sion to meddling firebrands—at all events, the continued prosecution of the - unlucky business prepares the country ill to consider with due calmness, and a proper freedom from prejudice, the debates - and the division upon the Factory Bill.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. (THIS EVENING,) HOUSE OF LORDS. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool sack at Five o'clock. Several petitions were presented for or against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. The Dissenters' Chapels Bill was reads second time pro forma, and ordered to be committed on this day week. SLAVERY. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition signed by the venerable Thomas Clarkson, on 'the part of the Anti-Slavery Society. The petition prayed that their Lordships would sanction such fiscal regulations as would admit foreign sugar into the markets in this country, provided it came from settlements such as those in the East and Manilla, where free labour only was employed. The petition also prayed that thtir Lordships would not allow, eilier directly or indirectly, the admission into the markets of this coun try sugar grown in Brazil and Porto Rico. 'After a few - words from Lord KINNAIRD and Lord BROUGHAM. the petition was laid on the table. The Earl of POWIS presented a number of petitions against the union of the tees of St. Asaph and Bangor, and praying for the establishment of a bishopric in Manchester. The Noble Earl gave notice that on an early day he should call the attention of their Lord. ships to that subject. The Duke of RICHMOND presented petitions against the union of the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor. The Bishop of EXETER presented petitions to the same effect. The Bishop of CHESTER presented similar petitions. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented a peti tion from Dublin, praying their Lordships to legalise Presbyterian marriages in Ireland. The Noble Mar guts also presented several petition=, one from the Rev. Wm. Turner, the oldest Dissenting minister in the county, against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Also petitions in favour of the Bill. (LEFT SITTING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour. NEW WRIT. he could not suppose that the public interests wadi be exposed to the smallest risk, from the postponement of the discussion ; and it would be more satisfactory to his own feelings, and it would clearly be more agreeable_ to justice, that no charge should be made. against that Noble Lord, until he was able to atterd in the other House to vindicate his character.— (Hear, hear.) PRIVILEGE. • Mr. ROEBUCK rose amidst loud cries of " Hear, hear," and considerable confusion, in consequence of some _Hon. Members not having taken their places. We un derstood the Hon. Member to say (for he spoke in solow a tone ss to be scarcely audible in :he gallery) that he would not have risen if he had. nut felt himself imperatively called upon to address the House Hon. Members would bear in mind, that on the last even ingnn which the House met, an Hon. Member opposite, ! namely, the Hon. Member for Canterbury, thought • fit, in the performance of his . duty, to make certain observations upon himself. To those observations he had given what answer ho thought sufficient. The attack was made upon him in a speech which was some • what elaborate ; but he thought the House would admit that he (Mr. Roebuck) did not lose his temper on that occasion —(Hear, hear)—and that he spoke in such an off-hand way, that it might have been supposed that the , matter would be suffered to rest. An HON. MEMBER (bfr. Estepurt we believe) moved that a new writ be issued for the election of a burgess to servo in Parliament for the borough of Horsham, in the room of the Hon. Mr. Scarlett, now Lord Abinger. Mr. TUFNELL, who was very indistinctly heard in the gallery, rose to call the attention of the Speaker to the delay which had occurred with respect to the issuing of this writ. He wished to know whether it would not be consistent with the forms of Parliament to issue at once a writ for the election of a Member of that House, in the room of a Member who had been called by the death of his father to the House of Peers—to issue that writ immediately that this fact became known. The eldest son of a peer was admitted into that House with out any property qualification, without any inquiry being made as to his claim to such a privilege ; and he (Mr. Tufnell) could not see why a new writ could not be issued without such delay taking place as that which had occurred in this case. The SPEAKER was , understood to say that this point had been settled by Lord Dunfermline when Speaker of that House. It was perfectly true that on the death of a peer, the eldest son of that peer holding a seat in that house immediately vacated his seat, but the House had no means of ascertaining whether such Member's claim to the peerage was bona fide or not and therefore the only' safe course for the House to adopt was to wait for the issuing of a writ of summons. It was perfectly true that the eldest son of a peer was admitted into that House, without a property qualification; but it was equally true that a claim to that privilege might be founded on error. This had been shown in a case which bad recently occurred, in which an Hon. Member qualified as the eldest son of a Peer, and it afterwards turned out that he was not so. Mr. ESTCOURT perfectly concurred in the view which was taken by-the Speaker. After: a few words from Mr. TUFNELL the new writ was ordered. LEEDS GAS BILL. Mr. BECKETT moved that the evidence taken be fore the Committee on the Leeds Gas Bill, in the year 1835, and also the evidence taken before the Committee in the year 1843, be referred to the Select Committee on the Leeds New Gas Bill.—Ordered. LEEDS AND BRADFORD RAILWAY BILL. Oe the Order of the Day that . the report of the Com mittee 'upon the Leeds and Bradford Railway Bill be further considered, Mr. HARDY said that he thought it was neccessary that the Bill should be recommitted. He thought that the Standing Order which precluded Committees on Railways from receiving maps or ans relating to com peting lines shouldbe suspended. When this question was raised in the Committee, he voted against the evidence offered by the opposing parties being received. But he now thought that he had construed the order too stringently, and as the parties themselves to the Bill had given] evidence that there was a shorter line than that proposed by them, it was, in justice to the public, and to the advocates of the other line, only right that the claims of both should be fully examined. He would move, according to that view, that the Bill be referred back to the Committee. An Hop/ Mumma seconded the motion. Sir. E. COLEI3ROOK defended the decision to which the Committee had come, and to which.he said they were by the Standing Order bound to come. It had, besides, been proved to the Committee that the shorter line was in many respects objectionable, if not impracticable. [At s m pel o a n Wynn was carried into the H by two of the messengers, borne e N binisterial bench, on the sea t % t ho i o u sic uponeedn t a l r h i a C C. upon litter, bh next to that usually occupied by Lord Stanley. During the silence occasioned by this unusual occurrence, Mr. Ferrand came into the House, and took his usual seat, without attracting observable notice.] Mr. J. S. WORTLEY wished the House to recollect that the Hon. Member for Bradford, only asked the House to re-commit this Bill. Had be asked anything beyond this most assuredly he (Mr. Wortley) would have opposed him to the utmost. The question was whether the Committee were justified by any rule or by the practice of that House in refusing the evidence which had been tendered. Had the matter been fully gone into, and fairly so—if they had refused to enter tain evidence which they ought to have received, then he (Mr. Wortley) thought it would be difficult for them to refuse to re-commit the Bilk. For this reason he should support the motion of the Hon. Member for Bradford. • Mr. M. MILNES said the quetion of the reception of the evidence had been decided in the negative after fair and due consideration ; and were the House to order the Bill to be re-committed, he very much doubted if the Committee would not again come to the same decision as that at which they had already arrived. After a few words from Mr. REDIrEAD YORKE, Mr. C. WOOD said the position of the question was simply this—that evidence had been rejected which, according to the ordinary practice of the House, ought to have been received. The parties ought•to have the opportunity .of putting in that evidence. Mr. ALDAN and Mr. HoDsoN hiving briefly ad dressed the House, Mr. GLADSTONE was of opinion that the Com mittee which sat on the Bill were in error, and that the Bill ought to be recommitted. The House then divided, when there appeared For the motion An HON. Mmunna here rose to order. If the Hon. Member meant to complain of any proceeding tending to cause a breach of the peace, he ought not to use lan guage tending to create a breach of the peacP.—(Hear.) The SPEAKER said the Hon. Member was perfectly in order.—(Cheers.) Mr. ROEBUCK said, that before he read to the House a letter which he had roceived . from the Hon. Member for Canterbury, he would at once state that he had no wish to give that Hon. Member the least offence. He then said, and he now repeated, that whenever he was called on to account for or explain anything that he might have said (as we understood) he should be pre pared to do so.—(Repeated cries of " Speak up.") He did not regret anything which had been said by him after the sort of mode—(Cheers)--in which . the Hon. Member for Canterbury had alluded to him.—(Re- Dewed cheers.) The expressions used by the Ho nourable Member conveyed an imputation of a grave character upon him (Mr. Roebuck). The Hon. Member said that he had deceived his party— that he disguised servility by severity, and (as we un derstood) that he was seeking the favour of the present Government, under the appearance of a foe.—(Repeated cries of" Speak up," the Hon. Member speakirg in an unusually low tone, although with a very emphatic man ner.) He had been called a rebel to the Queen, and the friend of Papineau. To that attack he had answered as he would answer over and over again, but he answered only in fair Parliamentary retort. He would now read to the House the letter he had received from the Hon.. Member for Canterbury. The Hon. Member then read the following letter, but in the same indistinct tone : " Travellers' Club, April, 1844. " Sir,—l cannot determine from the newspaper re port, if your speech in the House of Commons last night, nor from what I understood when I heard it, whether to me personally you meant to apply the words dishonourable motives.' If so, I beg to refer you to a letter which I addressed to my constituents, dated July, 1843, in which was this, passage—' That as I never asked a favour of Sir Robert Peel or of his Government, I could not have been actuated by any disappointment of obligation in voting against them. Now I call upon you to state that you did not mean to apply these words to me ; and if you did so either to retract them or to refer to a friend with whom my friend, Captain Garrett, may communicate. (Signed) " G, SMYTHE." He (Mr. Roebuck) did give answer that Mr. Smythe should hear from him, but not not by letter, but in the House of Commons. But he said to Captain Garrett, " As far as you are concerned you need not be alarmed." Mr. SMYTHE—That was not the answer. The SPEAKER—Order. Mr. ROEBUCK—Sir, I am now here to answer for what I have said. The SPEAKER said the letter just read by the'Hon. and Learned Member for Bath, having been sent to him as a Member of that House by another Hon. Member of that House, and the subject-matter of that letter having had its origin in same proceedings in that House—it would be the proper course for the lion. and Learned Member for Bath to hand it over to the clerk of the House, to be read by him at the table.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. ROEBUCK was understcod to say he should not give up the letter, unless by express command of the House. He had considered it his duty to advise the House of a fact, but he declined to give up a letter.— (Loud laughter.) Mr. CURTEIS said he felt it his duty to move that the letter referred to be read by the clerk at the table of the House. The SPEAKER'said he had before stated the course that ,it would be the duty of the House to pursue. He must now positively require of the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath to bring the letter up in order to its being read, as it must be the foundation of any such further proceedings as the House might think due to its own dignity to.adopt. • Mr. ROEBUCK brought up the letter, -which was then read by the clerk to the House. After a pause of a moment or two, Mr. SMYTHE said the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath, true to his practise, is to his right, had taken one Hon. Member by surprise, because the answer given to him (Mr. S.) by the gentleman he had ,sent to the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath was not that which the Hon. and Learned Member for Bathhad just reported to the House. The answer given by the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath to the gentleman sent to him was this—" Heshall hear of this? His (Mr. Smythe's) 'Friend had replied that he must have " a definite an swer," to which the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath had rejoined, "He would send an answer." From that hour ho (Mr. Smythe) had been expecting an answer.— (Roars of laughter.) Lie (Mr. Smythe) could give his sacred word of honour that, except to the friend he had sent to the IlOnourable and Learned Member for Bath, he had never opened his lips to any person, or made the slightest intimation 'of the course he was about to pursue. But this afternoon, be (Mr. Smythe) by accident met the Noble Lord the Member for Newark (Lord J. Manners), who informed him that he had been given to understand by an Hon. Member of that House, that the Honourable and Learned Member for Bath was about to bring this matter before the House.—(llear, hear.) Inasmuch as he had taken but one gentleman into his confidence, while the lion. and Learned Member for Bafh had chosen to take somewhere about five hundred into his—(Oh, oh)—he (Mr." Smythe) was well et - intent that that confidence should be full, unreserved, and ex plicit.—(Hear, hear.) And he must say this—that when the lion. and Learned Gentlemen who had just spoken about having only made use of a fair parliamen tary retort, he should have perfectly agreed with the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, that his remarks had only partaken of the nature of a fair parlicraentary re tort if he had made use of it for the first time.—(llear, Lear.) Bet it must be in the recollection of the House that that Honourable and Learned Gentleman upon an Irish debate, during the last session, of Parliament when he (Mr. Smythe) had already spoken, made a speeCh characterised by severe and caus tic severity, with regard to himself, making use of the same insinuation that he had preferred on Wednesday evening. He (Ur. Smythe) was at the time utterly un able to give any reply to the insinuation, because the Hon. and Learned Gentleman afterwards left town to attend the circuit. But on that occasion he consulted a friend, - who told him he could take no notice of what had been said, but that he must contradict the insinua tion. And that insinuation he did now contradict, in the most immediate, direct, and public manner, because he must be permitted to say that it was a grave reflection on a public man, that he should be supposed to act from venal, low, and sordid motives.—(Cheers. And now the Hon. and Learnded Member for Bath had brought thematter before the House, he 'must say that -he had done it in a different spirit from what he (Mr. Smythe) expected he *tap have done. When he under stood that the Hon. and Learned Member had undertaken to bring the matter before the House, he expected that he would have done it in a speech somewhat similar to those he was in the habit of making—a speech full of those aspersions he was in the habit of throwing out. But as the Hon. and Learned Member had not done so, it only remained fur him (Mr. Smythe) most humbly and respectfully to apologise to the House, if he had done anything which involved a breach of its order and privileges.—(Loud cheers.) -Sir R. PEEL said, according 'to the course usually taken in such cases, it would be necessary that both Hon. Gentlemen should give an assurance, which they would have no difficulty in giving, that this matter should not go further. Mr. ROEBUCK objected to comply with this, because this would pre-suppose that he intended to pursue that course.—(Laughter.) Sir R. PEEL, said that assurance clearly exempted the Hon. and Learned Gentleman from any suspicion of in tending to do so.—(Hear, hear.) The SPEAKER—It now only remains for me dis charge my duty by calling on Mr. Smythe to give the House his assurance that he will not take any hostile proceedings. Mr. SMYTHE—The thing is perfectly absurd.— (Laughter.) If the Hon. and Learned Member chooses to bring the matter before the House, and then says I am , not one to bring matters to extremities, thereby insi nuating that I am the person—(Laughter)—and throw ing the whole odium of the position on one—it is per fectly absurd, because you must remember the position in which the Hon. Gentleman p'aces me. If the Hon. and Learned Gentleman is willing to state, that he bas taken the initiative in this matter, because he is the most diffi • cult man in the. world to deal with.—(Laughter, and cries of Order, order)— because he has engaged in some half dozen affairs of this kind.—(Loud cries of Order, order—Chair, chair.) The SPEAKER—The Hon. Gentleman must see that his conduct was not respectful to the House.—(He had been asked not to engage in hostile proceedings;. and he (the. Speaker) now requested that he would answer that call. Mr. SMYTHE—Then I will do so in one word. .As it is impossible to determine whether the Hon. and Learned Gentleman is only here in this House as a Member of Parliament, I beg in the most ftill and unreserved manner to apologise, for any breach Of formulas or forms of the House of which I may have been guilty. I have no more to say, excepting that this matter will not go further.' MR. FERRAND'S ACCUSATION. On the motion of Sir R. PEEL, the Order of the Day for proceeding - with the matter of the 'complaint of the Hon. and Learned Gentler pn the Member for Beverley, and the Right Hon. Gentlepan the Secretary of §tete for the Home ]department, was read, • Ag it Majority for the re-committal of the Bill —lO2 The Bill was then ordered to be re-committed. NEWQUAY HARBOUR AND RAILWAY- BILL. On the motion of Mr. P. HOWARD, the Newqoay Harbour and Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. LIVERPOOL GAS BILL. On the motion of Sir IL DOUGLAS, the Lords' amendments to the Liverpool Gas Bill were agreed to. On the motion of Mr. MILNER GIBSON the Man chester Royal Infirmary Bill was read a second time. Dr. BOVVRING gave notice that on Thursday week he would call the attention of the House to the subject of quarantine. 80 , IRECAL OF LORD ELLENBOROUGH. Mr. MACAULAY said he wished to put a question to the Right lion. Baronet at the head of her Majesty's Government. He wished to ask him whether it was true, as had been reported, that her Majesty's Govern ment had recalled Lord Ellcnborough from the Govern ment of India? Sir R. PEEL said—ln answer to the question which has been put to me by the Right Hon. Gentleman, I beg to state that on Wednesday last her Majesty's Govern ment received a communication from the Court of Di rectors, that they had exercised the power which the law gives them, to recall, at their will and pleasure, the Go vernor-General of India.—(Loud cheers from the Oppo-. sition benches.) Mr. MACAULAY said, that, under those circum stances, he need scarcely say, that it was not his intention to bring forward on Tuesday week the motion of which he had given notice respecting the late evenU in GwAllor. He would reserve the right of bringing that subject I The SPEAKER—Is William Bust;old Ferrand, under the notice of the House hereafter, but as the in his placo ? administration of Lord Ellenborough had terminated, Mr. Ferranti rose and bowed. The Clerk at the table then read the report of Mr. Ferrand's speech. Mr. FERRAND tben rose and said, Sir, I owe, in the first Vace, an apology to this House for having been the unitentional means of taking up so much of its valuable time. - Had the Hon. and Learned 'Member for Bath not taken me unawares the other evening—(Hear, hear)--I should, on reflection, have given him the answer what the Honourable Member for Finsbury said he would have given. But, Sir, having the hurry of th:: moment been induced to reply to the question of the Hon. and Learned Member. I tun sorry that I should have been the cause of thus taking up the time of the House. I owe another apology, Sir, to the working-classes in the fac ctory districts, that I should have been the means this evening of depriving them of one moment of that sacred time which they were expecting would be em• played this evening in debating a question of vital impor ance—a question to them of life or death. I hope the House wil do me the justice to believe that, if any remarks of mine, either of a public or of a private nature, should have wounded the feelings of any indi vidual, I shall ever be prepared to give that explanation to that individual which one man of honour has a right to expect from anotar. It appears to me, Sir, that there have .been unfounded conclusions arrived at as to what I said in reference to the subject now brought before the louse. On Monday evening, as far as my recollection goes, I said to this House, that I believed that every word 'of mine, as reported in the Times newspaper, which related to the Right Hon. the Secretary of State for the Home Department and to the Hon. and Learned Member for Beverley was strictly true; but that I would not vouch for them until I had again referred to that paper, and if they were correct, I would come down the following day and fearlessly and boldly, before this House, either avow or disavow them. I redeemed my pledge to this House. I came down with the full intention of doing so, and so I did. Sir, • the House labours under an, incorrect impression, when it supposes that I was .driven from the • House by the rude and unmanly interruption which was offered me by the lion. Member opposite—(Cries of " No, no," from the Opposition benches)— or that I fled from the charge. Si,s the charge which was made against me was that I used language at L:cds affecting those two Hon. Gentlemen, and I lmitted I had done so. I admit so, for every word in that paper is what I uttered at the Leeds meet ing. When I left this House I adopted a precedent which has been pursued by lion. Members placed under the peculiar circumstances of myself. I retired from the House, considering it would be improper in me, and impertinent towards the House; if I remained one moment longer. Having redeemed my pledge, I left, lest I might be an impediment to the free discussion of the subject I have been ordered by the House of Com mons to appear in my scat to-day, and I respectfully obeyed the summons, as I will obey every summons or order this House may give me if it is justified in order ing.—(Langhter.) I fun given to understand that if I was prepared in my place this evening to plead guilty to the charge, which the Honourable and Learned Gentleman has made against me, that I shall receive a free pardon at his hands—that if I do not plead guilty the House will then proceed to pass sentence on me without even examining any evidence—(Cries 'of " No, nu")—that it will proceed to pass sentence on me without producing any evidence as to the construction to be - put upon my words. I hope I shall be allowed to say one word •as to the conduct hitherto pursued by this self-constituted Court of Honour. Mr. Speaker-No man, Sir, ever sat in that (''hair, who conducted himself with more strict impartiality more gentlemanly demeenour or more graceful bearing than yourself.—(Cheers.) But, Sir, in this new effice as judge of this self-constituted Court of Honour, 'you yourself have found the greatest difficulty in acting as an impartial Jude. Sir, the other - evening, when that common in !ormer applied to ineL-(Losid cries of " Order, order.") I retract the words, but I will never retract the sentiment. (Partial cheering.) Sir, when that public accuser—(lnterruption)—it is a Parlismentary phrase, and it is unganerouS to attempt to interrupt me.. Sir, when that public accuser applied to me the epithet of falsehood the otherevening, I declared that the language was ungentlemanly. You called me to order. Sir, when mac of the witnesses in this prose cution read his evidence against me he supported it by engrafting on that evidence a leading article in the Times newspaper.—(Hear, hear.) Sir, the leading men of both political parties in this HoUse attacked me in violent language, Nay, one of them in language un justifiable, charged me with a crime, Sir, of which he himself was guilty. Is he a fit judge to sit here? I admit that a more noble or generous-hearted man never trod the soil of Britain; but under the excitement of the moment he uttered expressions which were quite unjustifiable.— (Hear, hear.)' Sir, the shouts of revenge which issued from the jury were .also within your hear ing ; and let the House recollect that the Prime Mi nister of England, is hen I had scarcely left these walls, declared in this House, that by having done so I had deprived it 'of gratifying itself with a great deal of amusement. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Sir, as a Member of this hii use, I protest against these proceedings. In the name of the people of England—(lronical cheers)—l deny your right to try me on this charge—in the name of the people of England I pronounce this self-constituted Court of Honour to be an illegal and an unconstitutional Court ; and, Sir, in the name of the People of England, I refuse to plead at its bar.—(Cries of " Hear, hear," and partial cheering.) Sir JAMES GRAHAM said lie by no means rose to address the House in answer to the speech of the *Honourable Gentleman who had just sat down. But his Honourable Friend the Member for Bever ley had, in distinct terms, denied the accuracy of the charge preferred against him by the Hon. Member for Knaresborough. He (Sir J. Graham) had not given to the House any statement or assurance in reference to the facts relating to the charge, which Was then under the consideration of the House. and it was only for that purpose, before he re tired from the House, that he rose to addresS them. Now, before the House proceeds further with-the consis titration of this subject, they shouldihear his (Sir J. Grabana's statement. The Honourable Gentleman had referred to the authority of this tribunal, and said that he did not come to ask the opinion of the House as to the accusation. But he (Sir J. Graham) as the accused was entitled to ask them fen their acquiVal and justification.—(Hear, hear.) He was in a condition to ask for that decision, and he had a right to state what the answer was, both as to what concerned himself personally or what concerned the Hon, Member for Beverley. The first charge in which he alone was concerned was couched in these few words—that he was a person who had taken steps to procure a false report of the purpose of crushing the Hon. Member for Knaresbo rough, and that he afterwards dismissed the poor wretch whom he had used as his degraded and ignominious in strument. He had with the utmost diligence endeavoured to ascertain which he had had any communication, direct or indirect, with Mr. Mott in reference to the report. He was unable -to find any trace of any correspondence with the Assistant-Com missioner; (Loud cheers.) He had endeavoured to find any trace of communication with the Commis sioners, the central authority, under whose directions the Assistant-Commissioners acted.. He could find no trace of any such communication. (LEFT SPEAKING.) DUTCH PAPERS. AMSTERDAM, APRIL 20.—This morning the Royal Family made their proposed excursion to Utrecht by the iron railway. They left the Palace with their suite at eleven o'clock, tu d returned about three. We are as sured that his Majesty expressed his entire satisfaction with the handsome manner in which the carriages are fitted up, and with all the arrangements. ZRODLE, APRIL 19.—The steam boats between this town and Amsterdam will begin to ply on Tuesday, the 23d, and arrangements will be made to correspond with the arrivals of the trains, as well from Rotterthan and the Hague to Amsterdam, as from Amsterdam to the Hague and Rotterdam. The facilities which these new arrangements will afford to travellers, who will be able to come in one . day from Rotterdam, the Hague, Leyden, Haarlem, Amsterdam, and other places in North and South Holland, to Zrodle and Teverite, in one day, and, by means of dilitrences, to go with all speed to Dronthe, Friesland, an d Groningen, we may hope that trade and industry will derive great advantages from the increased intercourse between the several places. AMSTERDAM, Argil, 22.—We learn that their Majes ties will leave this capital to-morrow morning, at half past nine o'clock, to return to the Hague. Tunarsr.—The Constantinople mail of the 3d of April brings accounts of a violent pressing of soldiers which the Porte had executed in the Turkish capital, in which the wives of the men pressed made a riot, ,at tacked Mohamed Ali and Riza Facha, and tore the clothes off their backs. EXTRAORDINARY NARRAT 1 VR.—The Port Hope (Canada) Gazette says Mr. Peter Moffat, who has for several years been in the habit of teaming between Peterborough, this place, and Cobourg, states, that a team of horses, which cost him about 751., were missing on the morning of the 6th S e pt em b er, 1842. Af ter fruit less search and inquiries in the neighbourhood, ima gining they were stolen, he started towards Toronto in search of them, and from some. account received on the way, was induced to go on as far as 100 miles beyond Buffalo, but in vain, and after spending six weeks in the pursuit he returned home. 'A day or two afterwards, observing that the crows and dogs were frequenting a thicket near his own barn, 'he searched it, and there, in a stream discovered both his horses dead. As th ere was but little water at the time, he suspected they had been poisoned, and upon opening them a substance was found ivhich on examination turned out to be arsenic. But the most singular part of the story remains to be told. A person named C-b, who died shortly afterwards, acknowledged on his death bed that he, another person named C-y, and one M-y, (C-y and M---y beim , also teamsters), had poisoned the team; and Mr. Moffat states that C-b, on returning home after the act, found one of his own horses hanging at the rack or manger, and soon after lost two of his cows, and that then h© himself was taken ill and died; and that C-y, who is said to have lent himself to assist the others on this occasion, was subsequently shot dead, in a broil at an inn in Peterborough. Thus does an inscrutable Pro vidence, sooner or later, overtake the guilty, however secret or well-devised their schemes may be for a season.. A labourer named Trevis was killed on Thursday morning, at Throop, near Christchurch, by the sudden falling of a mud wall; which deceased and another man were engaged in removing, and imprudently neglected to prop up whilst picking away the foundation. When taken cut lie was quite dead. t; 0 0 0 40 0 0 50 0 0 5 0 0 11 0 0 5 0 0 5 0 0.- 55 0 0 50 0 0 5 0 0 210 o 10 0 0 5 0 0 250 0 0 All paid 2 0 0 3 0 0 36 10 0 2 10 0 2 10 ( 50 0 0 10 0 0 5 13 0 10 0 0 2 0 0 12 10 0 12 10 0 2 10 0 2 0 0 1 0 0 10 0 0 10 0 0 5 0 0 6 5 0 20 0 0 40 0 0 4 , 0 0 0 5 , 1 0 0 200 0 0 25 0 0 20 0 0 20 0 0 10 0 0 7 10 0 25 0 0 10 0 0 17 10 0 95 0 0 10 0 0 10 0 5 25 0 0 10 0 0 16 0 0 18 9 0 19 0 0 5000 20 0 0 100 0 0 75 0 0 31 5 0 20 0 0 50 0 0 50 0 0 20 0. 0 30 0 0 39 0 0 80 0 0 25 0 0 48 0 0 10 O 0 25 0 0 12% ea Z 32 97% 113 11*% 554 161% 44,4 27 .2E914 84 Y 414 5734 26.5 2514 1114 59 170 169 N 224 170 95 74 19s. 844 . 19s. 4% 50 es!. 14 " CITY BANKS. The following return of the money balances of* City banks was made to the Parliamentary Comeititt" in 1840, but by them considered an improper docu ment for publication at the time. It appears, how ever, in the last Number of the British and Foreign Quarterly Review as a note on an article - on Corn and Currency, and on collateral authority we have aster' tained that it is correctly given. Our readers will understand that the sums plac e d aga i ns t the names 0 ' the respective banking-houses is the aggregate manna amount of the bJances for 1840 : Barclay and Co. . , £107.000,000 Glyn and Co. - 105,000,00Q Jones Loyd and Co.. .....

Total • . £978,496,000 Since the date of the above return two of the firs there named have become extinct. Ladbroke and j has retired, and Dorrien and Co. has been incorporAr with Curries. These returns possess considerable 111 'I terest, but they certainly convey no cor r ec t idea' the relative amount of the regular banking bustne: transacted by the respective houses. For e xinaPri Barclay and Co., the first on the li s t i n point,°, amount, has the business of the immense diseounOr firm of Gurney and Co., which of itself accounts ' °t their position at the clearing-house. Glyn and Cf; has by far the largest portion of the business of tl o railways and other joint-stock companies, and Robs )* e and Co. stands so high on the list chiefly from tl' h amount of stock-brokers' cheques, which pass throllg. t hough hands. Other cases could easily be pointed (3 , 1 0 to account for the position occupied by the hous !. the list, but we have said sufficient to show that Ow amounts furnish no fair test of the legitimate banictt business transacted by the different firms. Loki' at the whole case, however, it is perfectly clear, fo, s; that and other circumstances, that the tendency of O a ' banking business" of London of late years has b ee s , very decidedly towards a concentration in comPl ir e tively a few large houses. On this principle We hi' a right to expect that more of the smaller firms *. ll yet become extinct. Our readers in the country l e understand that the foregoing list does not incl u , be the bills and, cheques of the Bank of England 9; joint-stock banks, nor any of the banks westward • the City.—Herald. EDINBURGH TOWN COUN CIL•T TUESDAY, APRIL 9.3.• PRESENT TO THE CITY FROM I:61145 BROUG HAM. The LORD PRovosT intimated that.
