Lord DENMAN presided at Nisi Prius, and Chief Jus tice Tvinm. disposed of the cases in the Crown Court. There are twenty-eight prisoners for trial, twenty males and eight females. Of these prisoners eleven can neither read nor write, and the others can only read or write im perfectly. There was a very full attendance of Magistrates. Vis count Mersharn was sworn as foreman of the Grand Jury. When the Grand Jury had been sworn, Chief Justice TINDAL briefly addressed them. His Lordship -observed that he did not see in looking over the calendar that there were any cases, with one exception, that would require any special remark from him. That case was a charge of manslaughter against a relieving officer, and the charge arose out of the removal of a pauper by him from one pi rish to another, at a time when the pauper was not in a fit state of health to be removed, and this, as was alleged, caused the death of the party. The law was quite clear upon this point. If a parish officer, with the full know ledge that a pauper was not in a fit state of health to allow of his being safely removed, caused that removal to take place, and death ensued—there was no doubt that this would be manslaughter in the eye of the law. The point for the Grand Jury to ascertain was, to know whether the party charged could be reasonably supposed to have full knowledge, either from medical information or other wise, that the pauper was not a fit state to be removed, be cause the whole case rested upon that. If the Grand Jury believed that he did possess that knowledge, and that, notwithstanding he had caused the deceased parson to be removed, and that the deceased died in consequence, then it would be their duty to find a bill for manslaughter. If, however, that point was not clearly made out, then the proper course for the Grand Jury would be to ignore the bill. The Grand Jury then retired. _ IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. THE NEW NOVEL.

For BETTERING the CONDITION of our FEL LOW-SUBJECTS, the NATIVES of BRITISH INDIA. At a numerous and highly respectable MEETING, held in Freemasons' Hall on Saturday, the 6th inst., an Association was formed under the above denomination. The following ex tracts from the Society's Prospectus will suffice to commend its claims to public approval and support : " The Committee entertain no doubt that, when the vast importance of our Eastern Possessions is understood—when the claims of one hundred millions of British Subjects are recog nized and felt—and when the responsibility and moral obliga tion of this nation tow.irds them are considered, a great and generous effort will promptly be made to benefit a country which contains within itself the means of returning a hundred fold into the bosoms of its benefactors, all the blessings they can possibly confer upon it. " The Committee prefer to make their appeal to the just principles and Christian feelings of the country. They are not ignorant, however, of the extent to which they might address themselves to the loyalty, the patriotism, and the interests of their fellow-citizens; but they believe that such an appeal is unnecessary. They feel convinced that no argument is re quired to demonstrate the inseparable connexion between the bettering of the social, moral, and intellectual condition of the countless millions of India, and the accomplishment of those ends which are sought by the promoters and patrons of legiti mate commerce, and the advocates of the honour, the stability, and the prosperity of the British Empire at home and abroad."

From professional indic a ti ons o f so muc h use f u l ness as this I think it just not to withhold my public recommendation, which I have not before given in favour of any remedy, although I frequently see my name falsely used for this purpose.

GOOD LOCKS A PREVENTIVE TO CRIME. The Police Reports almost daily show to those who have property of importance the necessity of procuring a good Lock. Crime to a very serious extent may be traced to the negligence or indifference shown as to the quality of Locks—bad Locks giving no security whatever, but enabling the dishonest and the curiou to open and f clock to lull suspicion, by means of other ordinary keys, or pick them with the common pick keys ; thus private stock in trade, jewels, plate, documents, and papers of the most serious nature, are exposed to the prying curiosity of those left in trust in the absence of principals. To avoid these ruinous losses and exposures procure the SEVEN GUARDED LOCK, warranted and made by S. MORDAN and CO., London, that defies the most ingenious burglar, or the most determined meddler, whose love of curiosity overrules every other feature.

On Saturday was s cure parts met itit et o various meet nings hweakness, beenve posted through the streets, beaded " Invasion,' and calling on the thousands of working men in Edinburgh to meet i n the Whitfield Chapel, Carrubber's Close, as the only means of saving their natural rights. About 600 men and boys obeyed the call ; and in consequence the chapel was pretty well filled; a Mr. Wilson took the chair, who occupied a considerable por tion of time in reading extracts from Chartist newpapers relat ing to the riots in Birmingham. A Mr. M'Lean followed ; and, following out the hints contained in these newspapers, he de nounced the burning and gutting of houses in Birmingham as a plot of the Whig G overnment and the middle classes, to excite an odium against the Chartists, and prove that they were not worthy to be allowed to meet and discuss their own grievances. It did not seem to occur to those ardent partisans, that their admissions went to show that mobs who resorted to outrage were not wor thy to be allowed to meet ; and if it could, thereforei be proved that the burnings were really the work of the Chartists, their meetings ought — themselves being judges—to be immediately put down. Mr. M'Lean also referred to the subject of exclu sive dealing. He recommended that every man should sub. scribe 10s. ; that a Committee should be appointed to take a shop, stock it with provisions, and put a man in it, to sell them at no higher a rate of profit than would pay the rent of the shop and the salary of its keeper. The motion fell to the ground. Mr. Joint DurtcAN then addressed the meeting, and in very severe terms rebuked them for not having signed in great numbers the pledge proposed at a former meeting to abstain from spirituous and fermented liquors, and, as much as possible, from tea and coffee. If they would not do this, he said, how could confidence be placed in them to stand by the Members of the Convention when they were in jeopardy. No doubt, when speeches were made to them, they were ready enough to applaud ; but few or none of them seemed inclined to act. Then with regard to withdrawing their money from the Savings Bank, he was sorry to say that he bad none to withdraw.—(Hear, hear)—or it would have been out long ago ; but he knew a person who told him that, in obedience to the orders of the Convention, he had withdrawn the sum of 1201. in gold. These were the only speakers of the evening ; their former leaders having either been discarded, or having prudently resolved t o s t an d aloof during the present e mergency.-- Edinburgh Courant.

The authors looks at the " sunny side" of human nature, takes " friendship, love, and Christian benevolence" as his motto, and presents us with portraits of some enviable samples of our species, drawn so naturally in contrasted scenes of trial and happiness, that our sympa thies are at once enlisted in their fortunes. We are assured in the preface that neither the characters nor events are fictions, and that imaginary circumstances and ilhistrations are only introduced occasionally to stamp the tale with a more impressive interest. This announcement was almost unnecessary, as the author evidently appears in every page to " hold the mirror up to nature." Lore, courtship, and marriage, form, as in most other novels, the substratum of the tale; but interspersed through these. we have disserta tions on literature and the fine arts, theology, morals, poli. tics, and many other topics equally, if not more, interest ing. The style is chaste, correct, and lively—the spirit of viewing human nature through the medium of love and benevolence never relaxes throughout—and the interest is skilfully sustained.

ATTEMPT TO BREAK OUT OF FORFAR GAOL. Friday morning, between six and seven o'clock, a cry of distress was heard from the gaol by the keeper's wife. Mr. Stewart, the keeper, w ent away the prece di ng night to attend as a witness In the case o f t h e Ki rr i ernu i r rioters, who were tried at Edinburgh l on the 12th instant, leaving Mr. J a mes Stewart, assistant criminal officer, in charge of the prisoners until his return. The latter, ac companied by J a mes Anderson, another officer, went in to remove Thomas Miller, Robert Kennedy, accused of sheep stealing, and another prisoner, named Wannan, accused cf theft (who i s a deserter), from their sleeping apartment to the day cell. On Anderson opening the door-cell the pri soners immediately burst out and locked the door at their heels, and went down stairs, when Millar seized Mr. James Stewart by the neckcloth, and was attempting to drag him into another cell, the other two assisting ; a scuffle ensued, and on Mrs. Stewart hearing the noise, she went out and alarmed the neighbours, whose assistance was instantly procured, and whose appearance immediately made- the prisoners drop their hold, when they were again placed in durance.—Edinburgh Courant.

KENSINGTON PETTY SESSIONS CONNUBIAL Buss.--Monday a person named William Leeson, residing at No. 8, Newland- street, Kensington, was brought up on a warrant before Messrs. Codd and Sutton, the sitting Magistrates, to answer a charge of having assaulted and threatened the life of his wife. Mrs. Maria Leeson, a lady of the description termed " fat, fair, and forty," in answer to questions by the Bench, proceeded to detail a whole catalogue of matrimonial mise ries. She said the defendant was her second hus band. She had been married to him six years, during the whole period of which he had most grossly ill-treated her. Their courtship had been of short duration, having only known him two months before they were united. Mr. Conn—And ever since you have been disunited ? Mrs. Leeson—Exactly so your worship. I married him because I thought from what his mother said of him, that he was a good, well-conducted man • but when I had married him she spoke as ill as s h e h a d before spoken well of him. He, of course, before marriage made plenty of fair pro mises ; but after the knot was tied, instead of fulfilling them, he has taken all he could from me, and is continually drunk, drunk, drunk. I have some houses and cottages of my own in town and in the country, and I want nothing of him. Mr. CODD—Have you a marriage settlement, and any family ? Mrs. Leeson—Oh yes, I took care of that. I have a marriage settlement, and receive the rents myself, I have only one child by him, which is four years old ; he, how ever, often accuses me of infidelity—a hundred tlmusand times in an hour. What do you in particular complain of?—Of his ill treating and brutally beating me. When did he do so last ?—Last night; he came home in a blessed ill-humour, and slapped my face with a mutton chop—the fellow—he did. What did he do on Tuesday when you applied for the warrant ?—On that day he struck me twice in the face in the morning, and again in the afterncon. He dues not get up until ten o'clock. Was it with his fist ?-oh, yes, the brute • he has not humanity enough to strike with his open hand. Does he attend to his buviness?—When he pleases. I should have done this before the honeymoon was over— then I should have done justice to him and to myself too. The defendant denied the statement of his better half, but called no witnegses to disprove it. Mr. CODD, having conferred with his Colleague, said to the complainant, " Well, if we fine him, I suppose you will pay it for him ?" Nlrs. Leeson—Oh, no, indeed, he can pay it himself. But you will,_l dare say, pay it in a day or two if he is sent to prison. I always find that, in cases between hus bands and wives, as soon as the Magistrates decide on fining the husbands, the wives pay the fine for them.—Oh, no, I shan't do that. I don't think he is of sane mind—t,o man that is would take a suit of new clothes and wipe the wall with them, and his shoes on them afterwards. Mr. CODD said Mrs. Leeson had acted very foolishly, and been too hasty. Had she, on becoming acquainted with the defendant, consulted her senses instead of her passions, she would never have married him. Mrs. Leeson—Ah ! I was very foolish. He had such a soft tongue. The defendant was then fined 603. and costs, and in default one month's imprisonment. The parties had, how ever, scarcely got into the outer office before Mrs. Leeson drew her purse-strings and wanted to pay the fine ; but, on the policeman vclia had her husband in custody reminding her of Mr. Codd's words, she left the office, and in a few minutes afterwards the defendant's brother came in and paid the fine, on which ho was liberated. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The General Sessions for July took place yesterday, and the Calendar contained the names of sixty prisoners, but only four out of that number were charged with felony ; the remaining cases were principally for assaults and riot ous and disorderly conduct. NEVER PUT YOUR FINGERS IN A WOMAN'S MOUTH.— Catherine Burke was indicted for stealing a sovereign from the person of Charles Peddy, on the 21st of July. The prosecutor stated that he was a baker, and lived at No. 4, Macclesfield-street, Soho. About four o'clock on the morning in question, he met the prisoner in Bond strcct, and subsequently accompanied her to a certain house, where she took a sovereign out of his waistcoat pocket. Police Constable Holding, C 34, said he took the pri soner into custody, and she denied on her way to the sta tion-house with dreadful oaths that she had a sovereign in her possession. On arriving there, he discovered that she, was attempting to swallow something, and he asked her to open her mouth, which she did, and he looked into it, but " discerned" nothing.—( A loud laugh.) He asked her if she would allow him to feel in her mouth, and if he did so, if she would bite him, and she replied that she would not. He then felt on her left side, but " discerned" nothing—( Renewed laughter)—but on putting his finger to the right side, she bit him so severely that he was glad to get them out of her mouth again.--(Loud laughter.) Her mouth . was afterwards forced, and the sovereign taken out of it. The prisoner was acquitted. The CHAIRMAN refused to allow the prosecutor his ex penses, and declined making any order as to the sovereign. MURDER OF AN ORPHAN GIRL WORLE, SOMERSET, JLLY 20. The villa.:;,e of Work., Somersetshire, has been this aeck thrown into a state of considerable agitation, by being the scene of as cruel a murder as has ever been perpetrated in this county. The victim, we regret to learn; is 'a poor or phan girl (a parisb apprentice of a farmer named Reeves) of about 16 years of age, and the murderer is her fellow servant, a young man, of about 25 years of age. Our re porter, from personal inquiries which he made upon the spot, states that both the victim and the murderer have hitherto borne irreproachable characters, and from the fact of there having been no previous quarrel between the parties, the cause of the murder is enveloped in mystery, although from a personal examination of the spit, and from the evidence upon the inquest, we may perhaps rea sonably conclude that there was an attempt made to vio late the poor girl's person, which being resisted, the mur derer cut the poor girl's throat, sacrificing her life to his diabolical passion. When apprehended, be stated in ex cuse that she had stabbed him first, but from examination this was proved to be false. THE INQUEST. Yesterday an inquest was held upon the body of the de ceased, who was a girl of very interesting appearance, at the New Inn, Worle. The body presented marks of con siderable violence, there being five wounds, and a severe bruise upon the forehead, three wounds of about two inches in length on the left side of the neck, and a very extensive wound, penetrating the jugular vein, on the right &de of the neck, which no dohht caused her death. Upon the return of the Jury from viewing the body, the accused, Charles Wakeley, was brought into the room in custody, anal appeared much excited. Her master having deposed to her having been sent upon an errand to Worle on Wednesday evening, at about six o'clock, and to his having found her dead body, with the throat cut, in the lane, __ _ Samuel Norman, the relieving officer, deposed that on the evening in question, as he was riding through Snatch lane, he saw the prisoner come out of a ditch on the left side of the road. lie came towards witness, and then turned into the lane. Immediately afterwards a girl came out of the same part of the ditch and went towards Worle ; she turned round and witness saw that her ftce was covered with blood ; and her bonnet was hanging down her back. Witness rode after the prisoner to see who he was, and upon coming up with him, the prisoner said, " Oh, I must die." I said to him, " What have you been doing—you have cut her throat ?" and he r eplied " She stabbed me first." I then took him into custody, and delivered him to the constable. Sarah Bowden deposed to finding the deceased lying in the ditch on her face. Her legs were naked, and witness pulled her clothes down, and remained with her until she died. Further evidence was given as to the blood found on the bushes, from which it appeared that a considerable struggle Sir C. K NIG HTL E Y presented a petition from North ampton against the grant to the College of Maynooth. At twenty minutes past four, An HON. INlF.moan moved that the House be counted, the Gallery was cleared ; but it was found, that though in the body of the House there was not more than thirty.fivc Members, about twenty rushed out from the Library, and saved the House. TURKEY. Mr. HAWKS gave notice that on that day fortnight he should move for copies of the treaty of commerce and na vigation entered into between Turkey and England; and he should also submit a motion with regard to the state of the foreign trade of that country. _ _ CHURCH RATES. Mr. T. I)UNCOMBE gave notice that on Friday next he should bring forward a resolution re!ative to the imprisonment of John Thorogood ; and for an alteration in the mode of cAlecting Church-rates, earl.) , in the next Session. PORTPATRICK HARBOUR. Mr. WALLACE gave notice that in Committee of Supply, on the vote for Portpatrick Harbour, he should call the attention of the House to Sir J. Rennie's letter on the subject, and move a resolution that no further grant of the public money be given for that purpose. POOR-LAWS. Mr. YORKE begged to ask the Noble Lord whether be had any objections to the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the truth of allegations in a petition presented on the 17th inst., and complaining of the conduct of the Guardians of the Poor of the Caxton and Arrington Union ? Lord J. RUSSELL was not disposed to oppose the Committee, but he did not think it would be attended with any advanogrous results. Mr. YORKE said his only object in moving for the Committee was to give a public denial of the truth of the statements in the petition, and he should persevere in his mction. JURISDICTION OF COUNTY MAGI3TRATES. Mr. HUME begged to ask the Right Hon. the Attor ney- General how far the authority of the Magistrates of Warwickshire extended into the borough of Birmingham, as some doubts appeared to be entertained on the subject. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL regretted to say that the opinion of the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench appeared to him not to be altogether correct. He thought the Noble and Learned Lord's attention hat not been sufficiently drawn to the enactments on the subject. lie (the Attorney-General) was of opinion that the county Magistrates had a jurisdiction within the new Borough of Birmingham ; unless there was a no intromittent clause in the Act they could not be ousted from their juris diet:on within the Borough. Now, in the Birmingham Charter the c was no such clause, nor had there been any other circumrtance to oust them from the jurisdiction which they originally had in the county, and all the towns within it; and with regard to the Municipal Cor poration Act there was nothing in it to affect their autho rity. The 111th section enacted that until the grant of a Quarter Session the Magistrates are to have jurisdiction as such within the Borough, and after that the power was to be what it had been previous to the passing of the Act. Mr. FIUME said, it would be very desirable to have some Bill introduced declaratory of the law. BIRMINGHAM POLICE. Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved, pursuant to notice, that the Order of the Day for a Committee on the Bir mingham Police, with a view to vote money, should be taken before the notices of motions. Mr. LEADER wished to know if the Noble Lord in tended to persevere in this irregular mode of proceeding ? Lord JOHN RUSSELL thought the house had so generally concurred in what he intended to propose that he hid not entered further into the grounds of his proposition, when he asked leave for the Order of the Day to he read before the notices of motion. It must be sufficiently understood by the House that had he waited to have brought forward this Order of the Day in the regular course, until all the notices of motion should have been disposed of, it would have come on at such a late hour that it would have beer► objected to on that account. He would now lay before the House the state of the case. Every one was aware of the recent occurrences at Birming• ham. They have at present there, by means of the assistance of troops, .of the London police, and of the yeomanry, sufficient means for the preservation of the peace of the town, but no means exist of main taining it, except by means of the existence of this extraordinary force, which tends to create disturbance in the minds of the people of Birmingham, and is harassing to the force employed. Mr. LEA DER rose to order, but in consequence of the feeling manifested by the House, he immediately re sumed his scat. Lord JOHN RUSSELL would, therefore, seeing some measure for procuring a permanent police for Birmingham was absolutely necessary, ask the House if it would ad here so strictly to the order of proceedings as to risk the continuance of the present state of things, in that town. The measure was merely one for en abling the persons in authority there to constitute and organize a police force; and he trusted the House would let the Order of the Day have precedence of the regular course of proceedings. At the same time he would say that if there was any Notice of Motion of exceeding urgency, he should have no objection to let it have prece dence of the Order of the Day. Sir EARDLEY WILMOT agreed with the Noble Lord as to the urgency of the case ; but there was one Notice of Motion, charging the Magistrates of War wickshire with misconduct, which was also of very great importance, as until those charges were cleared up the Magistrates of Warwickshire were.under a cloud which impaired their efficiency. He therefore hoped the Noble Lord would consider that motion in the next place. On the question being put that the Order of the Day be now read, Mr. II UME asked why the Corporation could not raise the money_on their own security, without applying to the Government. He did not object to the institution of a police, but he thought that Corporations wero the best judges of their own pecuniary affairs. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that this Corporation was not empowered by law to raise money on the se curity of the rates, and anather reason was, that it was de sirable this question should not be complicated with the consideration of other questions. At Manchester the Town Council had issued orders to the churchwardens and over seers commanding them to assess a certain sum of money as a borough rate fcr the maintenance of a police force for that town. This had been resisted, and a question raised to try the validity of the charter. No question of this sort had been raised at Birmingham, and it was exceedingly desirable that such should not be the case, which most pro bably would be the case if in the present state of excite. ment the Corporation were to attempt to impose a rate. Captain PECHELL would give way . to the Noble Lord, but he was not disposed to postpone his motion for the one alluded to by the Hon. Baronet. Mr. WAKLEY understood the proposition of the Noble Lord to be to proceed et once with the Order of the Day, but he bad entirely failed to make out any case showing why he should have precedence. Tuesday was now the only day on which Members had a right to bring on motions—that right ought not to be interfered with, and if the Noble and Learned Lord and his friends would stop in the House till nine or eleven o'clock , he would have the advantage of bringing on the Order of tl .c Day after the e pursu ed was to discussion upon the motion of his Hon. F riend the Member for Westminster. The only fair course to dispose of the Notices of Motions, and thenrbe proceed with the o,d2r of the Day. If the Hou s e a greed to the motion of the Noble Lord, he would pre dict that the House would be counted out before seven o'clock. thoeurgehthatdo a e lr n e t a c c' r ei in b t e o en a condition atghraete he to the House, an attempt m W pt A t a n BnetjunatTeOutN sapidapaesr Honourable Members who had noticc o n the compromise w ith t he t N he oble Lord. on L c e o t n t d h i the proposition of . and keep his friends should agree to r emain in the House • e- If such an understanding were come to all the even ing. ' • the Noble Lord, there could be no object ion to the proposition of the Noble Lord. Mr. S C HoLEFIE LD hoped the House would agree to the m otion of the Noble Lord, for it was very im portant that no time should be lost. It was said that the poop? Birmingham of o am objected strongly to the presence of t h e London police. The only way in which they could b e got rid of was to enable the Magistrates of Birming ham to raise a police force fir themselves. Mr. O'CONNELL thought there ought to las an ex ception even upon a Tuesday, under the circumstances of the case then under discussion. It was no time to stand upon strict forms when houses were burning, and at the present time they were not enabled to spare more than from 4,000 to 5,000 troops from Ireland.-- (Laughter.) Ho really thought the proposition of the Noble Lord ought to be agreed to. Mr. E WART said that his name stood first on the notice paper—he thought the proposition of the Noble Lord was so reasonable, that he would at once give way—( Cries of " Hear, hear") tint he trusted that the Noble Lord would agree to act upon the suggestion of the Hon. 111eihber for Eridport. Mr. HUM E had no objection to that course, if the Noble Lord would agree to it, but he must promise not only to remain himself, but to keep his friends, and prevent them from deterring others from coming into the House. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said the old fashioned manner of proceeding was to consider of and redress grievances before granting money. Now, the motion of his Hon. Friend the Member for Westminster related to a very great grievance. Why should not it have prece dence ? Again, why should they put their hands into the public purse, in order to support a police for Birmingham, the largest town in the kingdom, pro vided with a Corporation for its own government. He predicted that it was only giving the money away ; it would be Ile that loan of a million which was given to the Irish parsons.—( o h, oh.) The Hon. and Learned Member for Dublin bad talked of the Order of the Day having prece dence because houses were burning in Birmingham. The cause of all that was the conduct of that House. They might add 5,000 men to their army they might increase the police force, but it would all be of no use so long as that House went on in its present course. On a subsequent occasion, his Hon. Friend the Member for Birmingham, supported by his Hon. Friend the Member for Oldham, presented a petition from 1,200,000 persons. They asked the House to take it into consideration only, but not more than forty-eight Members could be found to vote in favour of their motion. Could they believe the peo ple would be contented when they had added 5,000 men to the (b b A c et rbo. believed ID u i e s . v e )e idf believed groat a t House dt o ihs u ce s per severedoecnotue nn a a r n m ddi sotrri distress that try was in a dangerous e thhea policecourse . s w t : Hu e e ; d being passed before the country had any time to reflect upon it, would cause great consternation and dismay throughout the country. On the -22 d of July, within, prevailed, and a vote of the sort then proposed in all probability, three weeks of the close of the Session, the Noble Lord came down from the House and said the country was in such a state that he must increase the army to the extent of 5,000 men, and advance 10,000/. to the Corporation of Birmingham to keep the town quiet. He did not believe that would keep the town quiet. He believed the House would have to listen to aad redress the grievances of the people, before the town of Birmingham or the country generally was quiet again. There was a grievance complained of in the petition which his Honourable Friend, the Member for Westminster, had given notice of ; but to which the Government wished to give the go by. If the Noble Lord got his 10,000/, first, then, as his Honourable Colleague (Mr. Wakley) had said, all the gentlemen would go to their dinners, and s who in tended Mr. FRENCH t a h ty F o e . noticesßpp woul d rEe 0 0 0 p N n Ctsebheeleolfaphstale oncepi Engla n ddaedrt add i tion a - t e t tio r o i were anxious star v ing accedevxosi , O c o g u l a t il oo t n o o i n d t n h n e e n t Md pt t i or e h s otmertpmiebiolessori army?tni 0 , th e n f the Noble Lord.--( Hear, hear.) Sir 11. H ARD ING E inquired when the Noble Lord in- Lord J. RUSSELL could not then answer that ques tion, but would in all probability on Monday (as we under stood). Mr. D'ISRAELI thought, before the House agreed to any one of the projects of the Noble Lord, they ought to inquire into the causes of the insurrectionary spirit, and whether the conduct of Government was concerned in that insurrectionary spirit. How could they tell but that the cause of it might not be the country having to struggle with a weak Government?—(Hear, hear, hear, and a laugh.) The Noble Lcrtl ought to state his case to the country, for all his projects; he ought net to take an isolated point, and if this were a case of such great urgency the Hon. Members for Birmingham, ought themselves to advance the money. —(Hear, hear, and laughter.) Mr. E ASTH OPE said there might he much in what his Hon. Friend the Member for Finsbury had said as to the causes of the d►scontent that existed in the country; but it was surely the first duty of Parliament to do that which was best calculated to secure tranquility. It was the duty of every Member of that House, and of every reflecting member of society, first to secure tranquillity, and then to inquire into the causes of that tranquility having been clisturlied. He hoped they would show the country there was a firm determination in that House to do that Which was the best adapted, and in the roost effective Form, to secure the tranquillity of the country. lie should cordially give his support in favour of taking the proposi tion of the Noble Lord first into consideration.--( Hear.) Mr. LEADER did not see there was such very great urgency for the motion of the Noble Lord. He believed the disturbances in. Birmingham had been very much ex aggerated, and these propositions of the Goverament would tend to increase the excitement that already existed. He would persevere in his objection to the irregularity on the part of the Noble Lord, and would take the sense of the House upon it. Lord JOHN RUSSELL wished to make one obser vation upon the mode of proceeding he had pro posed that night, because what had been stated was ealeulat2d to create a false impre3sion out of doors. is was said lie was now proposing that an Order of the Day should take precedence of No ticesof Motion. Now %hen that petition, signed by 1,200,000 persons came on for discussion, he had himself proposed, although the Order of the Day then took precedence, that the discussion on that petition should be taken first.—( Hear, hear.) He had not endeavoured to shirk the discussion, but had fairly met the reasons urged by the Honourable Gentlemen who proposed and supported the motion. That motion was therefore disposed of in the most deliberate manner, and he ( Lord John) had not by the course he then took pre cluded himself from doing that which be now proposed.— ( Hear, hear.) • Sir ROBERT PEEL felt it to be his duty to sup port the Noble Lord, and he thought what had been said about the danger of leaving that great manu facturing town in the possession of a mob—houses being set on fire and pillaged —and the whole being in a state of anarchy, did constitute a sufficient rea son for proceeding at once to con.ider what steps - should be taken to restore tranquillity. There vbas something so peculiar in the circumstances of the country, in the announce ment that had been made, and in the known facts of what had taken place at Birmingham, that he thought it would be of the greatest advantage they should take the earliest op portunity of providing a civil force, so that that portion of the civil force now there might be removed from the town. He was confident that the sooner they removed the me tropolitan police from Birmingham, consistently with a de termination to supply its place with another, the better. A civil power acting within its own limits could resort to acts of extreme rigour without exciting the feelings which would be excited by the introduction of a force not known to the locality.--( Hear, hear, hear.) He thought the present case justified a departure from the ordinary rules, and that there was no likelihood of its being drawn into a precedent. The House would be best performing its duty by taking effectual measures for maintaining the public tranquillity.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. FIE L DEN said it was undouLtedly the duty of the House to secure the tranquillity of the country, but the question was whether the mode proposed by the Noble Lord was the most likely to attain that object. He ( Mr. F.) thought the best mode of trying to conciliate the people was to endeavour to redress the grievances of which the people complained. The complaint was of the London police having been sent down, and the general feeling was that the disturbances arose from their introduction. Then_, ought the House to take steps to accumulate a force which was not likely to allay the irritation which prevailed ? The House ought to redress the sufferings of which the people complained instead of providing a force to put down their complaints, which most assuredly never could be put down by such mans.—( Hear.) Ho trusted the Hon. Member for Westminster would take the sense of the House on the question. If Reformers would back applications to put down the complaints of the people, who were starving for want of food, the present would be worse than theborough mongering Parliament. Sir C. BURRELL thought there was no ground for supposing that the riots arose from the presence of the police. Riotously disposed persons, of course, disliked the appearance of any force designed to preserve the peace. He attributed these disturbances to the inflam matory speeches which had been made by various parties.— The industrious can always find a subsistence ; but the idle and dissolute would naturally be distressed. He be lieved the country was in a prosperous state, could people but let well alone. But there were always, unfortunately, discontented persons, inclined to excite insurrection, and plenty of thieves and vagabonds ready to catch the infer, ' tion.--( Hear, hear. ) Mr. M. PHILLIPS was not one of those who believed that these riots were the immediate result of distress, ( Hear, hear.) But he considered that the House would desert its duty to the general welfare of the nation, and to those industrious classes whose in. tcrests were jeopardised, if the proposition of the Noble Lord were not agreed to.—( Hear, hear.) " Nero ffddled, while Rome was burning." Let not that House in imitation of such an example neglect to consider the means for preserving life and property.—( Hear, bear.) Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the House dividad, when there appeared-_ For the Motion 144 Against it it wouldmoving the resolution circumstances 3 Majority for the Moti on .

For some time there had been meetings held at which the most violent and inflammatory lan guage was used. On ono occasion certain persons were arrested and held to bail for using . such language. But within the last month the practice of holding these meetings had very much increased, and it became the habit. of a number of persons tumultuously assembled together to march through certain parts of the town with banners, and by that means alarming the people. Representations were made to the authorities of Birming. ham, that the trade of persons, carrying on their lawful business in the thoroughfares, through which the crowds passed, was endangered and disturbed by these meet ings.—(llear, hear.) It was stated at the same time that there was not an adequate civil farce i n t h e town for the arrest of the persons so conducting themselves. Now it was a great mistake, but a mis take which might easily be fallen into, to suppose that when there was no actual riot and breach of the peace, no actual damage to persons and prorerty, th at such t at such meetings could be - . ennsidt.,cd lawful.
