' An important public meeting was held yester day in the Town-hall of Birmingham, on the subject of Ireland, when the warmest sympathy was express ed for that aggrieved country; and a solemn.protest was recorded against the prosecution, trial, sentence, and imprisonment of Mr. O'CONNELL and his co-de fondants. ,A few, among - many of the reasons, which induced the meeting to record this protest, are con tained in the following significant passage :---" Be cause the prosecution has been characterised by cir cumstances exhibiting an unfair influence over the right administration of justice ; the suspicious disap pearance from the jury-list of the names of a number of Roman Catholics, whereby the jury, instead of being composed of twelve creditable ; men who were neighbOurs to the fact, and unexceptionable to the parties concerned, was constituted exclusively of the religious and political opponents of the ac cused; the marked bias against . the defendants of one of the judges who presided; the conflicting opinions of the Court on several points of law daring the trial ; the vague and undefined nature of the imputed offence; and the refusal of a new trial; notwithstand • • ing the judicial decision, of Judge PERRIN that the traversers were entitled to it." : These are weighty reasons, Which will be sure to:make an impression on the minds of intelligent and impartial English- Men.

The mills of Lancashire and Yorkshire are kept going solely by slave labour. One-half of the consumption of the country imported from foreign States is the produce of slavery, and it therefore is utterly absurd to make a distinction between free-labour and slave-labour sugar. The only point of interest in Sir ROBERT PEEL'S speech was that the Government would not yield to the amendment of Mr. MILES, and that they would abide by their original proposition. He accordingly announced that, when the motion was made for reducing the duty on West India sugar to 205., he shotild move that it be 245. the cwt. The speech of Sir ROBERT PEEL was remarkable for its candour. He admitted that the Government had been defeated on several important questions during the present session; that, consequently, little or nothing had been done ; that Parliament might be prorogued, and business, as at the close of the preceding session, remain nearly as when they met ; that many of his usual supporters had not lent him their support, but whatever might be the consequence the Government were determined to persevere in their course by a gradual, safe, and circumspect re laxation of those duties on articles which come into competition with the domestic produce of the country. This free trade speech did not seem to please the Tories, and the Right Hon. Gentleman sat down amidst cheers rather from his foes than his friends. Lord JOHN RUSSELL adverted briefly to the dif ferent topics of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S speech, and said the main drift of it was to make Members on the other side, the usual supporters of Government, undo what they had done on Friday, and thereby destroy their independence as Membdrs of Parliament. Mr. P. MlLas regretted that Sir ROBERT PEEL was determined to oppose the motion carried by a ma jority of 20 on Friday ; he regretted also that he was compelled to oppose the Government, but he could not shrink from his duty, and must persist in his amendment. Sir ROBERT PEEL immediately rose, and moved that the blank be filled up with 245. An interesting debate ensued, in which Mr. KEM BLE, Mr. DISRAELI, Mr. LABOUCHERE, Lord STAN LEY, and many other Members joined, and for which, owing to want of space, we must refer to the Parlia mentary report. The House divided ; the numbers were, for Mr. MlLEs's motion, 233; against it, 255 ; majority for Ministers, 22. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at a Quarter to One o'clock.. The present House of Commons had already earned, in dealing'with the Factory question, an un enviable celebrity for the facility with which it could be brought to unvote to day what,it had voted yes terday;' to affirm, absolutely, to day that which it shall as fully and distinctly retract to-morrow. But the flexibility of purpose which it betrayed last night, has scarcely been paralleled by any Legislative Assembly since that which was summoned, in the dead of night, to meet a koman CIESAR in solemn Council, and then and there did gravely advise the Imperial Majesty on the moat eligible mode of dress ing a monster turbot. On Friday night last, as our readers will remember, the Commons, by a majority of 20 votes, in a House of 462 Members, exclusive of four tellers, decided that the words in the first clause of the Sugar Duties Bill, introduced by her MAJESTY'S Ministers, which charged a. Customs duty of "1/. 4s. per cwt."—" in respect of sugar the growth of any British possession in America, and imported from thence," SHOULD NOT stand part of such clause. And inasmuch as this question arose on the " amendment" proposed by Mr. PHILIP MILES, to the effect that the duty in respect of "sugar the growth of any British possession in America, and imported from thence," should be 11. per cwt., the Com mittee, in the ordinary course of things, would doubtless, have gone on, on Friday evening, the amendment being next specifically proposed from the table, to affirm it by the same, or very nearly the same, majority. Ministers, however, begged for time to consider the course they should take in the matter, after the adverse vote against their original clause. Last night Sir R. PEEL, at the close of one of the worst and most tedious speeches ever delivered by him, announced that Government were determined to adhere to the original clause. The wonderful consequence was that, upon the House resolving itself into Committee on the Bill, after a short debate, Mr MiLEs's amendment was lost, and was negatived by 'a majority of 22 ; namely, Noes 255, against Ayes 233. Thus the majority of Friday night of 20 against Ministers, was converted into a majority in their 'favour, last night, of 22, on virtually one and the same question ! We have no room, this evening, for an analysis of the two divisions, or for further commentary on them.. Mr. WILLIAM BAGGE, Sir HOWARD DOUGLAS, Mr. CHARLES GORING, and Mr. C. TURNOUR, we observe among those whom new lights, illu minated between midnight on Friday and midnight on Monday, had induced to become opponents of the , amendment they had previously supported. It has been, altogether, after allowing for the fact' that twenty-four more Members voted last night than on Friday—one of the most extraordinary " crosses " (in sporting parlance) ever got up on the Parliamentary course I T-14E- SUN, LO 1140 N, rtiiiliAir EVENING, j 'r te 18 3 18444 . _ Tory distrust was still exhibited towards her ; the • Catholics as usual were kept as much as possible in the back-ground, and their enemies promoted to offices of honour and emolument ; and the Conservative Cabinet showed, throughout their Irish policy, that they had changed their name only, and not their nature. At length, towards the close of last year, the question of the state of Ireland was formally brought forward in the House of Commons. But was the long discussion that ensued of a cheer ing, of a pacific character ? Far otherwise. It was neither more nor less than a proposition, supported by the entire weight of Government, and insisted on by them as a measure of the most grinding necessity, for increasing the severity of the existing Arms Bill ! And this is about the sum total of the benefits that the Premier, after four years' un controlled authority, has conferred on Ireland! But no, we do him injustice. He has, in addition to his insulting Arms Bill, contrived to place under the secure lock and key of a Peni tentiary, the man of all others most dear to the hearts of Irishmen—the man who may be said, without exaggeration, to hold his country's destinies in his hand—the man who, if we mistake not, will yet be found too strong for the Ministry who have incar cerated him. Truly, Ireland has every reason to be grateful to her Tory rulers—every reason to sink back into that state of quiescence which she ex perienced during the conciliatory Administration of Lord NORMANDY ! But the end is not yet come. True, the monster-meetings are put a stop to, and Mr. O'CONNELL is confined within the four walls of a prison; but it is his body only that is in durance ; his spirit still walks abroad ; the seed which he sowed —be it for good or for evil—still flourishes; and, perhaps, he was never so powerful as he is at the present moment ; for to admiration of his talents and confidence in his patriotism, are now added the in tensest sympathy in his fate, and the conviction that his trial has been an unjust one. Sir ROBERT PEEL has already shown that he cannot govern Ireland. He has yet to show—and the proof will be forth coming ere long—that he cannot govern England. We have received Madrid journals of the 10th, but they are barren of intelligence. The Funds had im proved a little. The Three per Cents. closed at 271 to for cash, and 27i at 60 days ; and the Five per Cents. at 201 at 60 days. The. Journal des Debats, of Monday, contains an other singular article on the affairs of the East, and especially the relations of China with the East India Company. We are surprised to find the able and cautious editor of this paper duped by some unscru pulous correspondent at Bombay or Calcutta, who mistakes the visions of his own imagination for facts, and transmits them to Paris as the latest news of the day. " The news brought from China by the last mail," says that journal, " possess much interest. Political as well as commercial affairs are assuming a different aspect, and we can already foresee coming changes of sufficiently grave importance." It then relates a story, dressed up by its veracious corre spondent in these words :—" The first event of im portance is the arrival at Calcutta of Sir WILLIAM PARKER, the Governor of Hong-Kong, charged with a proposition from the Emperor ofCHINA to the East In dia Company. The Ruler of the Celestial Empire being desirous to save his subjects from the de moralising effects produced by opium, offers to pay the Company an annual tribute of a million and a half sterling, on condition that they give up the cul ture of opium throughout the whole extent of the British possessions." This is a lesson of philanthropy, the writer adds, which would do honour to the country of WILBERFORCE and Lord ASHLEY. It iS a noble spectacle to see this poor Monarch (pauvre monarque) conquered and scoffed at, exclaim, with the money in his hand—" Here is the gold which ye seek—the gold which ye must have for your luxury and comfort. Well, take it. I give it you, but do not poison my subjects." The bargain, however, it would appear, was not struck, as the English in India could make more by the trade. This is all very im portant, and fresh news to the English public. The only domestic news in the Paris papers is a general strike among the barristers practising in the Cour Royale. h appears that a leading member of the bar wished an important suit, in which he was engaged, to be postponed on account of the death of his child, as he was unable to do justice to his client. M. SEGUIR, the President, however, refused to ac cede to the proposition, stating that private feeling had nothing to do with public duty, and that the Illisiness of the Court could not be interfered with by the absence of any of the counsel. This decision created a sensation unfavourable to the President, which was still further increased by his declaring in another instance, where an advocate threw up his brief in an unworthy cause, "that the advocate in question had done wrong ; that barristers in general were bound to plead whether the case were good or bad; and that, if they did not do so, they acted con trary to conscience and to their oath." A meeting was held in consequence, when they unanimously re solved to refuse to plead in the Court without an ample apology from the President. That determina tion was to be announced to the Learned Judge on Monday. DEATH OP THE AUTIIOR OF THE " PLEASURES OF llopz."—lt is with feelings of poignant regret that we record the death of Thomas Campbell, the poet, who died a day or two since at Boulogne, in the sixty fifth year of his age. With the sole exception of Rogers —who still lives and flourishes at a most patriarchal age--Xampbell was the only remaining disciple of the polished but artificial school of Pope. The first work by which • he made himself conspicuous in literature was the " PleasureS of Hope"—a poem which was written, we believe, before he had completed his 22d year, and which Still maintains its place among our English classics. This brilliant production was followed by " Gertrude of Wyoming "—a more chaste and elegant; but scarcely so animated a composition as its predecessor —" Theodric," the " Pilgrim of Glencoe," and those immortal lyrics, " Hohenlinden," " Lochiel's Warning," " Ye Mariners of England," • the " Exile of Erin," and the " Battle of the Baltic," which have- rendered his fame as enduring as the lan guage in which they were written. But Mr. Campbell was not only a poet, he was a prose-writer also of considerable merit; and published successively lives of Mrs. Siddons and Petrarch, together with " Letter's from Algiers," hich abound in descriptions of exquisite beauty. For a long series of years he edited the " New Monthly Magazine," to which he contributed many little poetical gems of the purest water; and on his secession from this periodical, started the " Metropo -I:tan," of which, however, he soon wearied. From an early period of his public career, he enjoyed a pension of three hundred pounds a-year ; was one of • the founders of the London University; and in the year 1836, had the high honour of 'being electe•l Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow. In politics he was of the Liberal school; took.a warm interesk in the affairs of Poland ; and was on habits of familiar acquaintance with all the most illustrious literary spirits of his country. As a poet he would haVe achieved the highest possible rank —for his genius was of the first order—had he had more faith in his own impulses, and obeyed with :more boldness the promptings of his fervid ima gination. But he was fastidious to a degree in his poetical tastes, and would, at any time, sacrifice a fine thought to, a correct line. His " Gertrude of Wyoming possesses all the fine polish of Parian marble ; and the description of the death of the heroine, and her last address to her agonised husband, • is, of its kind, the tenderest and most touching episode to be found in the whole wide range of modern English peetry. Mr. Campbell was born in Scotland, and received , his. education in Edinburgh. He was social in his habits,• was a kind friend, and a truly catholic politician. APPEARANCE OF THE HOUSE or COMMONS LAST EVENING.—The House of Commons was crowded at half-past four, by Members anxious to hear the :Ministerial statement. Sir Robert. Peel, however, 'did not enter the House until nearly five o'clock. Among 'the strangers seated under the gallery was Lord Morpeth. His Lordship entered the House at four o'clock, and took his seat under the gallery. The leaders of the Whig party, as they entered the House, went up to his Lordship and shook him heartily by the hand, and some of them engaged in earnest con versation with him. His Lordship, who appeared in excellent health and spirits, seemed to enjoy the ani mated scene which the House presented. THE WEATHER.—There has been a delightful change in the weather since last evening. The ba rometer has fallen ' fully half an inch, and we have had several genial showers of rain in the course of the night and this forenoon. Aa the change has taken place about the time of new moon, and the sky is mods overcast, we may hope that the long and de str.uctive drought is at last come to an end.

QUEEN'S BENCH.--(THIS DAY.) Mr. Justice Wightman sat at Nisi Prius this morning with a Middlesex special jury. The Court was occupied the whole morning in trying the case of Busher tr. Gibson, an ac tion brought to recover the value of certain carriages, al leged to have been illegally seized under an execution by defendant. The case presented no features of any public interest, and the jury had not returned their verdict when we went to press. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings at Nisi Prius.) NEWTON V. ROWE AND NORMAN. At the sitting of the Court this morning, Mr. Cockburn addressed the jury at great length, for the plaintiff. Chief Justice Tindal proceeded to sum up the evidence, and had not concluded his charge when we went to press. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY). OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) Daniel Dearlove, aged 35, chemist, was indicted for felo niously breaking and entering the dwelling-house of James Dearlove, and stealing two bank notes of 1001. each, eight sovereigns, and other moneys, his property. Mr. Wilkins conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson defended the prisoner. The facts of this case bad very recently been before the public when the charge was investigated at Lambeth-street Police-office. The prisoner was the prosecutor's nephew. (The case had not concluded When we went to press.) CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) Thomas Murray was charged with assaulting John M'Dermott. On that morning, between one and two o'clock, the complainant, one of whose arms was in a sling, and quite disabled, was standing in Church -street, St. Giles's, when the prisoner came up and accused him of being a " smasher" (aa utterer of bad coin). 111'llermott indignantly denied the charge •, whereupon a quarrel ensued, and blows were struck on both sides. It was proved, however, that the prisoner, a powerful man, struck the first blow, and afterwards beat the complainant so violently that the blood flowed profusely from his mouth. Police constable Allen came up and prevented further violence. The complainant is a musician, who ekes out a precarious subsistence by playing the violin at the humblest class of public-houses, but it appears sufficiently well to enlist the sympathies of a numerous body of sweeps, costermongers, and ladies of the pave, who accompanied him to the Court, and seemed to take a lively interest in the legal proceedings.—The prisoner was fined 7s. UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.) Thomas Hart was charged, before Mr. Traill, with gambling on Peckham _ _ Policeman 2621 5 stated that on the preceding day the Peckham Races, near the Rosemary Branch, took place, and that he was stationed there by orders of the Commissioners of Police to prevent gambling. He had not been long there before his attention was called to a crowd, collected at a short distance from the temporary stand, and on going up he observed the defendant at a small table. There was nothing on the table at the time, but the defend ant was busily engaged in depositing something in his pockets, which, on being examined, were found to contain the articles for playing at the games of " thimble rig" and " prick in the garter." The defendant, however, declared that he had not had a single customer, and that he had not played at either of the games. In reply to Mr. TRAIL, the policeman said the race-course was private property, that it was inclosed ; but that a number of fellows intruded themselves by getting over the palings; the defendant was one of those who got into the ground in the above manner. The defendant said that he had only just arrived from Leicestershire, and that being out of employ he tried to earn an "honest penny," not knowing the law forbad the old games of "thimble-rig and prick in the garter" on race courses. Mr. TRAILL told the defendant that the above games were unlawful, that on the present occasion he should not put the law in force, but warned him not to exercise his vocation again on race courses. This advice the defendant said he should adopt, and he was therefore discharged, his apparatus being forfeited. LLOYD'M SHIPPING : -(THIS DAY.)

Deliveries are to a lair extent. This morning, between the hours of one and t o o'clock, the neighbourhood was thrown into a state of alarm, in consequence of a young' man of the name of Alarkam, la drayman, in the employ of Messrs. Coombe and Delafield, the well known brewers, having precipitated himself from the attic window of the Coach and Horses public-house, in Charles-street ; a fem ale passing at the time witnessed the dread ful event, and immediately gave the alarm to the policeman on duty, who conveyed the unfortunate man to King's Col lege Hospital, but he expired ere he arrived there. No untie can be assigned for the rash act ; he quitted the bar with the intention of retiring to rest, and was perfectly sober. HARBOURS OF REFUGE ON THE COAST.-It , has been suggested to Lloyd's, that if 'the Spatway, or passage between the Buxey and. Gunfleet Sands, was better known, and such measures as are necessary for that purpose taken, such as the laying down buoys, Sic., and a leading mark through and into the River Cole, the shipping interest would be greatly benefited, a.i, although that harbour is but little known by the seamen generally, it is capable of holding 500 sail. DEATH OF JOHN LAINSON, ESQ.,'LATE ALDERMAN OF BREAD-STREET WARD.—Yesterday morning at an early hour, and after a most protracted illness, died John Lainson, Esq., at his residence, No. 58, Euston-square. The deceased gentleman for nearly 10 years filled the office of Alderman of Bread-street Ward, in which lie had carried on business under the firm of Lainson, White, and Co., for nearly half a century. He succeeded the late Mr. Alderman Atkins, in 1835 ; and served the office of sheriff in 1838. In 1842, the period (owing to the rejection of Alderman 'l'. Wood) for his being chosen as Lord Mayor arrived, he being the senior alderman ; but feeling himself incompetent to perform the duties of that office, on account of ill- health, he resigned the aldermanic gown, and Alderman Humphery was elected Lord Mayer in his stead. His resignation caused one of the most severe contests known in the City for the vacant gown, which terminated in Mr. Hughes being elected, after a scrutiny which lasted several days. The deceased gentleman was also a magistrate for the county, and was highly re spected by all who kneW him. He has left a widow and large family. ALLEGED POISONING IN STEPNEY, —Yesterday the inquest on the hody of Mrs. Raobael Bellaney, wife of Mr.. James Bellaney (now in custody) was resumed before Mr. Baker, at the Fountain Tavern, Stepney.

The Coroner said he was in communication, leifk Alr, Broderip,_ plating fu i tilis ,case,.. and suggestEd another adjournment for a week, which was agreed to. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEW CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday bad a very firm appearance, and fully 10,000 bales were sold at steady prices, and in some instances rather higher. Exporters took 2,500 bales, and speculators 500. The sales included 300 Egyptian, at 7d. to Bid. ; 100 Bahia, at 5Ad. ; .200 Maranham, at 5/d. to ad. ; 500 Surat, at 3d. to 3/d. ; and the rest American at 3i to 7d for New Orleans.—Shares were rather languid.

There are no ship-letters to-day, but the Brazil Aran is considered due. Her advices, however, will probably not be of particular interest, as we have intelligence by private ship to the 20th April, and the packet was to leave on the 22d of that month. The renewed division on the Sugar Bill, leaving the ques tion in abeyance till next year, has not caused any vexation in Mincing-lane, as the importers and dealers are harassed by these frequent petty changes, and would rather go on till a decided alteration can bemade. At the sametitne, it admitted that if the free foreign sugar could have been got in without much delay, but ell, owing to the distinctive vouchers required as to their growth, &c., few persons believe, a boon would have been conferred upon the consumer. The movement of the agriculturists against the Bank Charter Bill is considered to be gaining ground, as, indeed, the farmers begin to be more sensible of the increased diffi culty they will experience in obtaining occasional money accommodation from the local banks.

FRENCH GENE RO§ATIc.—.I. ne ong Symmetry, which arrived at Falmouth lately, for orders from Odessa, with grain, had a very long. passage, and when a few leagues off Scilly, the Crew were so short of, provisions as to he com pelled to bruiie some of their cargo and make a kind of pud ding for food. •They,Were likewise very short of water. In this strait the Symmetry fell..in with an English brig, and one of the officers went on board, • and inquired if he could be spared sOmeprovisions. Have y ou got any money ? was the reply. This being satisfactorily answered, one: cwt. of bread was hoisted out, for which this selfish captain charged 285., though most probably it cost him only a.guinea! A fe'w, days after th e Sy mme t ry f e ll in with Ya French brig, and after, stating their destitute condition, applied again for provisions. The French captain immediately got out a bag of his very beSt bread, a supply of water, and a variety of other articles of.consumption and when he was asked the cost, he magnanimously replied, " Noting, me no take one sous ; me very glad to sarve you; no take one sous."— West Briton. • • PROSPECTS 'OF TIM GROUSE SEASON.—We learn that the grouse are in the same critical state with the crops, being, like them, dependent upon the weather of the next week or two. The birds are just now chipping the shell, and are found in hatches from eight to twelve; which, allowing for casualties in early youth, would likely give an average number of coveys in the autumn: Everything, how ever, tlepends, so' far as regards the lower range of moors, upon an early fall of ruin, for with the continuance of the present drought for another fortnight few birds, in such situations, would survive it. Again, on the higher range of shooting grounds—viz., at the head of Athol!, liadenoch, and Lochaber, where the snow is only yet melting, abundance of springs are found all the year over for the young birds, and the supply - of birds on such places will, to all appear ance, be as good as usual. The principal moors in the Perth shire Ilighlands, are held on leases, so that then are com paratively few changes on such ; but on the lower grounds there are some excellent shootings in the market.—Perdis/iire Cylvier. STORM IN EDINBURG/I.—Yesterday afternoon, a large portion of the wall between the Queen's Park and the Dumbiedikes was blown down by the high wind which pre vailed during the day from the westward, in consequence of which twelve sheep and four lambs, the property of.

There is an express provision, in 3d and 4th W. IV., c. 53, s. 47, to meet these duffers, as follows :—" 'lt' any person shall offer for sale any goods, under preteme that the same are prohibited, or have been unshipped and run on shore with 'out payment of duties, such goods'(ahhough not liable to .any duties; or prohibited.) shall be forfeited; and the perion ofiering them for sale . shall forfeit the treble value of such a goods, or the penalty one hundred pounds, at the election of the Commissioners of Customs." • ' 11 I'Donald's excurse, that the goods were British, ought to have been of no avail ; if the Custom-house officer had iden tified an article of British manufacture, which had been offered to him for sale under' the pretence of Its having been, 'imuggled, it ought to have been declared a forfeit to her Majesty by the Lord Mayor of London.
