In the House of Lords, in the absence of the Duke of RICHMOND, Lord BROUGHAM moved the second reading of a Bill, with the following long title :—" The Actions for Penalties on Gaming Dis continuance Bill." The object of the Bill is to put a stop to a number of qui tarn actions, brought by ruined gamblers, or persons who will not pay their bets, against several gentlemen on the turf, the pe nalties for which, if enforced, would amount to 300,0001. The law has been obsolete for the last fifty years, and the Duke of RICHMOND proposes, not the repeal of the old Act, but some of its enactments, and also an application to the Judges in Chambers, to stop the pending actions, on payment of costs out of the pockets of the parties bringing the actions, and to add a clause, on the third reading, suspending future actions. Lord CAMPBELL concurred in the provisions of the Bill. The Bishop of LONDON and the Bishop of EXETER made brief speech& on the occasion, but we cannot discover their object. The first Bishop could not see anything bad in betting, provided a man had plenty of money, but he would allow no betting among the poor, because he wished to protect them. Is his Lordship not aware that more rich men than poor men have been ruined by betting, and that the poor have as much right as the rich to do what they like with their own? The Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be read a third time this day. This was the only busi ness of the evening, and the House adjourned at an early hour. In the Commons, after the presentation of peti tions, Sir H. HARDINGE gave notice that he would bring forward the Army Estimates on Friday, the 16th of February. _ _ Mr. LABOUCHERE gave notice that, on the 22d of the same month, he would bring forward a motion respecting the relations between this country and the Brazils. Mr. WALLACE, on the same evening, will move for a Select Committee on the criminal law of Scotland. Lord PALMEESTON postponed his motion on the slave trade for a fortnight. Lord ASHLEY then brought forward his motion for an address to the Crown, praying that her MA JESTY will take into her consideration the situation and treatment of the Ameers of Sinde, and direct their immediate restoration to liberty and the en joyment of their estates. It would be difficult to give an outline of his Lordship's speech. He described the Ameers as almost perfect beings, anxious to co-operate with the British Government, affording a free transit to the British troops on their march to Caubul, and in every respect fulfilling their engagements. Any one acquainted with the history of that country, for the last five years, knows that his Lordship has not read history care fully, or that he has been imposed upon by interested parties, as Mr. ROEBUCK afterwards told him. Could tiny man '.s ho knew anything of the question before the House say, as Lord ASHLEY did, that detach ments of our army were marched through their country, not only without opposition, but with their free concurrence and cordial co-operation ? All writers agree in stating that the Ameers did nothing except on compulsion, and that every obstacle was thrown in the way of the British troops. Mr. ROEBUCK followed ; and, according to his notion of motion, imputed all the blame, which Lord ASHLEY would throw on Lord ELLEN BOROUGH, to Lord AUCKLAND. His remarks about the " old friends" of Sir HENRY POTTINOER, and the manner in which Sir HENRY treated his friends when he was among them, formed a strong contrast to the lamentations of Lord ASHLEY. Mr. EMERSON TEN VENT followed, and demolished all the castles built in the air by Lord ASHLEY. He treated the letter said to have been written by Sir H. POTTINGER as a for gery, and could prove it from Sir H. POTTTNGER'S own words, who had described his " old friends" as a vicious and wicked race, and predicted their pre sent destiny. After speeches from Sir C. NAPIER, Sir R. PEEL, and Lord J. RUSSELL, the House divided, when the motion was negatived by a majority of 134. Mr. DIVETT then made his motion for an address to her Majesty to dismiss Mr. BONHAM from his situation in the Ordnance-office, but not being se conded, it fell to the ground. The House adjourned at Five Minutes to Two. The last charge in the warfare has commenced, and the Solicitor-General for Ireland has begun his reply to the speeches for the defendants, and his ge neral summary of the whole case. It will require all the talent which he possesses—and that is well-known to be not a little—to bring the minds of the jury back to anything like a favourable state for the prosecu tors. Conviction, or acquittal, or no verdict at all, fortunately signifies not one single iota, for the public has decided upon the case long ago, and no finding of the jury will alter the decision of the country. But the opinion to be entertained of Irish juries, of their subserviency to official purposes, or freedom from party bias, will be greatly influenced by the result of this trial. And if the Solicitor-General succeeds in averting a verdict of direct acquittal, or in compass ing the finding of no verdict at all, he will do great things for his employers. Should he succeed so far as to give any plausible pretext for a verdict of guilty, and, should the jury avail themselves of such a pre text to carry out the purpose for which they were put into the box, great will be the laudation be stowed upon the Solicitor-General. He will not, in his attempts, use the weapon of offence, nor follow the example of his Learned Leader by producing his fire-arms in Court ; but he will aim, by slow, in sidious poison, to gain his ends, and to compass the destruction of O'CONNELL and his fellow-defendants. Thus the pliability of an Irish jury, and the talent or jesuitry of an Irish Solicitor-General, are, in truth, the only issues about to be decided by the State prosecution of the Government of Sir R. PEEL. Did any Government, in times past—did any Ad ministration upon record, ever put itself into the position that the present Government has as sumed on this occasion ? Legal preparation un equalled, in more senses than one—unequalled in extent, unequalled in absurdity : trickery and artifice unknown in legal annals ; employed in the suppression of jury lists, and in the fraudulent packing of a jury : intolerance and bigotry, in making a religious test the ground, for exclusion from the panel chosen out of the mutilated list. And yet after all this preparation, this trickery, this intoler ance, all that the Government has been able to do, is to put themselves on their trial, and to place their own conduct, their own misdoings for adjudication, whilst those of whom they sought to make criminals, are comparatively free from all care as to what the final ending of these trials may be. So will it always be, when Governments suffer themselves to be dragged from the beaten road of justice into the tortuous paths which petty malignity and private malice prefer to tread. To gratify the dogged pertinacity of a WELLINGTON, the demoniac hatred of a STANLEY, and the paltry pettifogging acerbity of a GRAHAM, the Government of Sir R. PEEL has been led into this maze of persecution, and has perilled its very existence upon the putting down of O'CONNELL. The cause of Repeal has been ad vanced more by the proceedings of the Government than by any thing that years of agitation could have effected. Sir R. PEEL has nobody but himself to thank if he should find, no matter what the verdict of this fraudulently-selected, unfairly packed, and infamously concocted jury may be (a selection, a packing, and a concoction, in which the jury are no sharers, and from which, perchance, they may yet gloriously vin dicate themselves), that the cause of Repeal has gained a strength, and acquired a force, which, but for these prosecutions, it could never have attained. Repeal of the union is the child of Tory parents— it has been fostered by them, and nursed until it has gained its present stature, by their care and superin tendence ;—and if ever a repeal of the union, which we sincerely deprecate, should be found unavoidable, to Tory misgovernment, obstinacy, and imbecility alone will such an event be attributed. The English Catholics have resented the gross insult lately offered to their Irish brethren in a manly and becoming spirit. At a public meeting held on Wednesday, at the Freemason's Tavern, the following, among other equally significant resolutions, was pro posed and carried unanimously, amid loud cheers : " That the officers of the Crown, in striking off every Catholic from the panel, in the trial pending in the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland, have raised in the Court of Justice itself a well-grounded suspicion of the violation of the Emancipation Act, and have thereby insulted our religion and endangered our rights, by an implied imputation upon our fidelity to our oaths." In bringing forward this resolution, the Hon. C. LANGDALE remarked that it was not the Crown Solicitor who was to be charged with such a de liberate insult, nor even the Attorney-General; it was the Government which was the offending party : and in this opinion we are strongly disposed to concide with the Hon. Gentleman. The insult wears a genuine Tory complexion, and is, therefore, just such a one as was most likely to proceed from the present official occupants of Downing-street. But was there ever a more ill-timed, suicidal blunder committed by a set of men taking credit to them selves for the possession and exercise of common sense and liberality ? At the very time when one would have supposed that it was more than ever ne cessary that they should conciliate the Catholics of Ireland, and detach as many of them as possible from the repeal banner—at this very time Govern ment have thought fit to disgust and alienate them, by casting a slur on their honesty, and putting it publicly on record that they are not to be trusted on their oaths ! Yes, despite the Eman cipation Act, whose avowed object, as pompously proclaimed by its author, was to put the Catholics on an equality in every respect with the Protestants, a Tory Ministry still regards them with distrust and contempt—still takes special care that the brand of their inferiority shall remain broadly stamped on their foreheads. What is the legal disqualification for sitting on a jury ? That a man is a convicted felon. Is not the inference then, inevitable, that, in the estimation of our sapient, tolerant, and equitable Government, the Irish Catholics are no better than so many convicted felons, and are therefore legally disqualified from acting as jurymen ? Well may these cruelly maligned gentlemen resent such a gross imputation on their character—and this in the strongest terms that the English language can supply 1 They would be deserving of the sove reign contempt of every honest man were they to submit in silence to such a deliberate insult; but greatly shall we be mistaken in our estimate of their sense of honour, if they do not promptly bestir them selves to such effect, in England as well as Ireland, as shall extort from Government, on its knees, a con fession of its illiberal conduct, and a distinct, positive pledge that such conduct shall never be repeated. Minis ters would not dare to treat the Dissenters in this con tumelious manner. And why? Because they know and feel that they are a bold,'determined, wealthy, and in fluential body, who will not submit to injustice, and are impatient of even the semblance of insult ? But the Catholics are a different sort of men ; they, it is i taken for granted, are comparatively powerless in England, and even in Ireland are only numerically powerful ; consequently they may be insulted with impunity. Well, it is high time that this delusion should be dispelled, and Government be taught that the Catholic party can be as prompt to resent a slight or an injury as the Dissenters ; and that they are re solved to stand on no other footing than that of per fect equality with the rest of their fellow-country men eanwhhas already,ilethis as egregious blunder on the part Ministersof antici pated, recoiled on th e i r own iheads.ight h l a t ve be has en destroyed much of the moral influence which it was the object of the State prosecutions to exercise on the minds of thinking people in Ireland ; h as added greatly to th e number and strength of the Repealers ; and fur nished Mr. O'Coromm. with one of the most cogent arguments he could possibly urge in favour of that revolutionary measure. Truly Sir ROBERT PEEL and his congenial colleagues have displayed ineffable wisdom in their administration of affairs in the sister-country! They found it tranquil, they have convulsed it from one extremity to the other—they found it willing to trust to English jus tice for redress of wrongs, they have filled it with distrust and despair—they found Repeal a dwarf, they have elevated it to the dimensions of a giant—they found a large portion of the Catholics desirous to become their allies, they have converted them all, with scarcely one exception, into bitter and inveterate enemies ! And yet when he next discusses the question of his Irish policy, Sir ROBERT PEEL, if we may judge from the past, will have the insufferable effrontery to get up in the House of Commons, and, with that matchless, impenetrable, seven-fold face of his, pro fess his great regard for the interests of the sister country, and take credit to himself for having treated it with such uniform impartiality ! Madrid Journals of the 31st ult. have been re ceived. The death of Donna CARLOTTA had caused a great sensation, and its probable consequences formed topics of general discussion. " Yesterday," says the Herald, " the body of her Royal Highness was exposed in state. It is placed in a magnifi cent coffin in one of the rooms of the mansion which the Princess inhabited. The room is decorated with rich tapestry. The body of the Princess is covered with a fine white dress of lace and gold embroidery. On her forehead and neck thousands of diamonds or costly jewels sparkle. Two chasseurs of Espinosa and four halberdiers are stationed at the bed's head, and form the internal guard." A daughter of the deceased Princess had been attacked with measles, but was considered out of danger. Several parties had left Madrid to receive Queen CHRISTINA on her en tering Spain. The funds continued firm ; the Three per Cents. having closed at 30 and 291 for cash, and 291 at 60 days ; and the Five per Cents. at 20A at 60 days. The Paris papers are much occupied with the ques tion of railroads, and the affair of M. SALVANDY. On Monday a Council of Ministers was held, under the presidency of Marshal SOULT. The Ministers of Fo reign Affairs, the Interior, and Commerce, who were engaged at the bureaux of the Chamber, left them to attend the Council. It was stated in the evening that the question under consideration was the Rail roads, but that no decision had been come to. On Tuesday, however, a belief prevailed that Ministers had made up their minds on the subject, and the funds rose considerably, the Three per Cents. closing at 81f. 95c., and the Fives at 125 f. sc. A very ge neral feeling prevails against the supposed plan for exe cuting all the new lines under the agency of the State. Even the Globe, a Ministerial paper, is strongly opposed to such a scheme, and justly remarks, " ought the State to become proprietors of houses in Paris, or manu facturers at Sedan, or merchants at Havre, or agricul turists at Beauce ? It is absurd to suppose so ; and yet this is the very thing which those persons require, who urge the State to execute, exclusively, the rail roads, on account of the profits which are to accrue from the undertaking. With such a system the State would, in the end, monopolise in its hands all the un dertakings of the nation. Take, then, the English, the Belgians, the capitalists of every country of Europe, and let them have an interest, by their concurrence in the execution of our railroads, in the prosperity and riches of France. Can it be supposed that peace and order in Europe will not be consoli dated by such a community of interests ? Allow English, German, and Belgian interests to touch each other, and the nations themselves will touch also ; and that future will be prepared towards which all parties aim, or pretend they aim—namely, the close union of European nations, on the common ground of peace and labour." The Chamber of Deputies have not had a public sitting for several days, as the Members are engaged in Committees on the different items of the Budget. It was said, however, that there would be a public meeting on Wednesday, when M. SALVANDY would make some explanations relative to the late misunder standing between him and the Court. Some of the Opposition papers express a firm conviction that the GUIZOT Ministry cannot last. The Courrier Francais, however, takes a different view, and says, before the Cabinet presented the Secret Money Bill, they wished to ascertain the dispositions of the Members of the majority. Several meetings have taken place, on the proposal of the Deputies most devoted to the Ministry, and it is affirmed that the majority has proved as numerous and as una nimous as previous to the late Parliamentary storms. The Cabinet is content, and its friends still predict it a long life. THE BOURSE-TUESDAY, FEB. 6. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price. Price.

LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY EVENLNG. The Yorkshire on her first voyage across the Atlantic arrived here this morning, in the charge of .Captain Bailey, who has previously commanded some of the swiftest and most popular of the American liners. The new vessel is a beautiful specimen of maritime architecture ; and although in every fresh vessel which is added to the splendid line of packets between this port and New York, perfection appears to have been attained, still improvements and new beauties are discernable in each, gratifying to the eye, and compli mentary to the taste and skill of the heads which planned and the hands which executed such elegant workmanship. The Yorkshire, which sailed on the 18th ult., has made her first passage in nineteen days. A Bill, consisting of some forty clauses, had been intro duced into the House of Representatives by a Member, named Hughes, the purport of which is to take possession of the Oregon territory. Whether the Bill pass or not is of little moment; the object of the introducer was, doubtless, to di rect attention to his movements on this side of the Atlantic. The Cotton Market had sustained a sudden reversion in consequence of what was deemed the unfavourable news from England, and prices had receded a good deal. The feeling was also, increased by a belief that the new cotton crop would prove more productive than the previous accounts had represented it. In all probability, however, when the accounts arrive out with the details of the astounding doings in this market last -Tret4trand recently, another fillip will be given to that taste for speculation which had been arrested when the packet sailed. The news from Canada give an account of various changes on the tapir in the Cabinet and on the Bench. Mr. Wake field was on the point, it is said, of returning to England ; and Mr. Lafontaine, to conciliate the French portion of the people, is to be raised to the Montreal bench, in the place of an old judge of French extraction, who retires because of the infirmities of age. But these rumours, although positively affirmed, appear to be by no means certain. Congress had been opened in Texas by a message from the Piesident, which alludes, in handsome terms, to the inter vention of Great Britain, in order to settle the existing diffe rences between that country and Mexico—to the fact of France being about to establish a line of steam communica tion with the " Young Republic"—and to the friendly feel ing which has always existed between Texas and the United States, until it was inadvertently interrupted by an infrac tion of the revenue laws of the former country. It is also stated that a Bill had been introduced into the Texian Con gress, recommending the annexation of the country to the territory of the United States. From Havannah, the details of an insurrection, by the black population, have come to hand; it is said that no less than 500 slaves were killed in the emeute. The remittances by the present packet are heavy. When she sailed the rate of Exchange on England was 1081. BRIGHTON, FEB. 7.—The Duke of Rutland is expected in the course of the day at the Norfolk Hotel. We are sorry to learn that his Grace is in an infirm state of health. The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland are expected in the course of the day at No. 8, Eastern-terrace. The Duke and Duchess of Roxburgh, after staying a few days with the Dowager Duchess of Roxburgh, at the Norfolk Hotel, left this morning for London, with the intention of proceeding on Friday to Scotland. Viscount Combermere has arrived in Cannon-place. A Bude light has been put on the Old Steine, opposite the statue of George the Fourth. It was used last night for the first time, and shed a brilliant light around. The novelty attracted a large concourse of persons. We understand that the distinguished author of " Tremaine" and " De Vere" is about to usher before the public, under the sanction of his editorship, a new work of fiction, which is likely to excite considerable attention in the higher circles. The title of the work, which is " Chats worth," will certainly lead every one to expect a production of a peculiarly piquant character. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 9, 1844. SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Vtibitt Optitten. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. On Sunday evening Louis Philippe received the new Spanish Ambassador, the Danish Minister, the Prefect of the Seine, General Viscount Sebastiani, General Durosnel, the Duke d'Ossuna, Viscount de Bastard, M. Dupin, and Madame Dupin. Baron Pasquier, President of the Chamber of Peers, has been rather seriously indisposed. On Monday M. Laplagne-Barris was installed as President of the Court of Cassation, in the place of M. de Bastard. The Patrie of Monday evening publishes, under summons from the Government, in virtue of the laws of September, the contradiction from the Moniteur, which has appeared in the Messenger, of the statement that M. Guizot, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, had been in office during the Hundred Days, as Secretary-General of the Interior. The ball which was to have taken place at the Tuileries having been countermanded, the Queen ordered the various dishes of meat prepared for the supper to be distributed amongst the various bureaux of charity in Paris. This divi sion took place on Monday, when 2501b5. of meat was sent for the poor to each bureau. The Lyons papers state that a great quantity of snow had fallen on Friday and Saturday in the neighbourhood of that city. It appears from other papers that immense quantities of snow had fallen throughout France. According to letters of the 27th ult., froth Sardinia, the armed Sardinian flotilla against the Bey of Tunis sailed from Genoa on the 21st. It is composed of two ships of the line, the Angelo and the Tripoli, to which are to be added another first-rater, and twelve gun-boats. Captain Courtois has the chief command of the expedition. A letter from Presburg, of January 27, in the Augsburgh Gazette, states that the question of trial by jury had been adopted in the Second Chamber of the States of Hungary by a majority of seven. According to a letter from Naples, of the 20th ult., the borders of the crater of Mount Etna have become consider ably extended. Of the five new craters that had been formed, two were still smoking, and from the southernmost small flames were to be seen issuing in the night. From the furthest to the eastward thick volumes of smoke were emitted, and clothed the slope of the mountain as with a shining mantle of snow. Hence it is inferred that the volcano is not extinguished, and that there may still be some disastrous eruptions. A letter from Rome (20th ult.) states that the apprehen sions which were entertained of the Carnival being inter dicted are dissipated. The Governor of Rome, M. Lacchia, has issued the decree allowing it to take place according to ancient custom, but with some stringent regulations with regard to the sale of confectionery. On the 31st ult. the church of Mennecy, near Corbeil, was struck with lightning, which carried away a portion of the slates of the roof, and then descended into the, body, split ting the walls of a chapel, and doing other damage. A pupil of the Military School of St. Cyr, named De Cas tellano, has just been accidentally killed, when fencing with one of his fellow-students. The button of his opponent's foil came off, and the point entering his eye penetrated to the brain, and produced instantaneous death. LAW AND POLICB. In the Court 41:7iCiueen'sBench a case was heard which oc cupied the whole of the day ; it was that of the Queen v. King and others. It was a criminal indictment against Wm. Hy. King, Emily Anne Birch, and Augusta Anne Birch, " for combining and conspiring to cheat and defraud certain of her Majesty's subjects, being tradesmen, of divers large quan tities of goods. The indictment had been removed by cer tiorari. King is a solicitor, and Mrs. Emily A. Birch, a widow lady, who for some years kept a lodging-house in Bedford place, Russell-square. The transaction from which this prosecution arose was the ordering, by Mrs. Birch, from tradesmen in all parts of the town, of a large quantity of the most elegant and expensive furniture, to the amount of nearly three thousand pounds. When it was lodged in the premises at Bedford-place, King put in an execution for a pretended debt, and seized the property, which was sold. He was restrained, however, from appro priating the money, by the creditors making Mrs. Birch a bankrupt in the meantime. The case was complicated by a labyrinth of legal proceedings, real and feigned, which have taken place between the parties. The jury returned a verdict of guilty against King and Mrs. Birch, and acquitted Miss Augusta Birch, expressing at the same time their surprise at the extreme want of caution exhibited by the tradesmen who supplied the goods. King was sentenced to be im prisoned in the Queen's Prison for eighteen calendar months ; and, with respect to Emily Anne Birth, her sentence was, that she be confined in the Queen's Prison for nine months. Mr. Godson intimated that she would move an arrest of judgment on the first day of next term. In the Central Criminal Court Mr. Waddington, on behalf of the Crown, applied to the Bench to fix a day for the trial of Lieutenant Grant, who had given notice of his intention to surrender and take his trial, for being accessory to the murder of Lieutenant-Colonel Fawcett, in the duel at Camden Town. The Judges refused to fix any day for the trial while the accused should be at large. At the same Court Charles Edwards was transported for 15 years, for attempting to fire a pistol at a widow, named Matilda Potter. In the New Court Eliza Mary Jones was found guilty on a charge of stealing an infant female child, with the intention of passing it as her own. She was sentenced to seven years' transportation. A respectably-dressed man, about forty years of age, who scarcely raised his head during his examination, was charged at Bow-street by Mr. Samuel Ries, proprietor of the Grand Cigar Divan, No. 102, Strand, with stealing a quantity of cigars the evening before. He gave his name John Watson. He had been a frequenter of the Divan for seven years, but latterly had been suspected of pilfering, and on this occasion was seen to put the cigars into his pocket from a box on the counter. He was immediately given into custody. The singular part of the case is, that in the pockets of the pri soner was found 26/. 15s. 6d. in money, and ten cigars in a case. His solicitor applied for him to be admitted to bail, as he held a lucrative situation of trust, and one day's confine ment in Newgate, even if he should be acquitted, would be his ruin. He was, however, committed for trial, and bail refused. COUNT-FASHIONABLE. The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland left Stafford House on Wednesday, for the Earl of Carlisle's seat, Castle Howard, Yorkshire, in consequence of the Noble Earl, her Grace's father, having experienced a relapse, and become alarmingly indisposed. The christening of the infant son of the late Duke and Duchess, to whom Prince Albert is to stand spon sor, is postponed sine die, in consequence of the Duke of Saxe Coburg's death, and Lord Carlisle's illness. Viscount Melbourne, who has been indisposed with a cold, at his residence in South-street, is convalescent. His Lord ship dined on Monday evening with the Earl of Auckland and the Hon. Misses Eden, at Eden Lodge, Kensington-gore ; and last evening with the Dowager Lady Holland and a small party in Great Stanhope -street. Lady Caroline Murray has entered on her duties as Lady in Waiting on her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, who has nearly recovered from her late severe indisposition.

The Duke of Devonshire arrived on Tuesday evening from Hardwicke Hall. DIZSCEZZANEOUS. There has been, it is said, a very serious misunderstanding between the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland and the Lord Chan cellor. The cause assigned has reference to a fashionable party at the residence of the Chancellor. This matter has been much talked of in town for some days past. The Lord Chancellor or his family did not attend the late Drawing room at the Castle. It appears from a Glasgow paper, that the total amount of revenue drawn from the three ports in the Clyde, during the year just closed, amounts in round numbers to 938,502/. ; and should trade move on in its present improved course, there is no doubt that it will soon overtop the magnificent total of one million sterling per annum. There is a material increase in the export of manufactured goods from all the ports in the Clyde, in the quarter just ended, as compared with the cor responding quarter which closed on the sth of January, 1843. On Wednesday, the 23d Annual Court of the Governors of the board the Dreadnought , was held in the offices of the institu tion, 74, K , City, John Labouchere, Esq., Seamen's n g Hospital.wamSociety,t rWilliam-street, e f or th e p or t o f London, on t in the chair. From the Report read and and adopted at the Court, it appeared that there were admitted into the Hospital from the Ist of February, 1843, to the 31st of January, 1844, 2,778 patients; and that relief in medicine and medical stores had been dispensed to 2,033 out-patients. The amount of receipts during the same period, from all sources, was 6,6081. 14s. 3d. ; and the expenditure amounted to 7,3171. 10s., leaving a balance due by the Society of 708/. 15s. 9d. A dinner in aid of the Female Orphan Asylum took place on Wednesday evening at the London Tavern, the Duke of Cambridge in the chair. On the health of the Duke being proposed by Mr. Kemble, M.P., his Royal Highness alluded feelingly to the recent death of Prince Albert's father, and alleged his presence there, notwithstanding the lamented oc currence, as a proof of the great interest which he took in the charity. The Secretary read the first Report, announcing contributions amounting to 3501., among the most munifi cent of which may be mentioned that of the Royal Chairman of twenty guineas, and that of Messrs. Broadwood, amount ing to fifty guineas. , - On Wednesday evening the electors of the City of London resident in the district and ward of Farringdon Within, gave, at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, a public dinner to Thomas Baring, Esq., the Conservative candidate at the late election. George Byrom Whittaker, Esq., was in the chair, surrounded by about one hundred electors, including several supporters of the Conservative cause voting in that ward. At a meeting of the Liverpool cotton brokers and Man chester cotton spinners, held at Manchester on Tuesday, the Chairman, Mr. Gardner, alluded to the state of the India and China trade. In 1842 the export of cotton yarn to those markets was 22,500,000 o f pounds, and in 1843, 23,800,000 pounds ; which was not three millions of pounds more than the shipments to those markets in 1839. In 1842 there were 145,000,000 yards of calico sent to those markets, and in 1843, 230,000,000. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.

The Yorkshire packet brings advices from New York to the 18th of January, and we find in reference to Cuba the following ample details of the state of the island : " Rumour speaks of an intended insurrection having been discovered among the negroes on one of the estates near Ma tanzas. It is, however, a mere bagatelle. " Things here are getting worse and worse every day, and it seems that a change must come very soon. The negroes in the country give a great deal of trouble. They rose a day or two ago, upon the estates of the Aldamas and the Al phonsos. It appears there was an extensive conspiracy, in which the best slaves were engaged. Nearly 500 negroes in arms were killed, and a large number of prisoners were taken. The Americans residing in Matanzas have asked for an American man-of-war to be in that port, in case they are compelled to flee the island. " It is said that about 4,000 negroes in the vicinity of Matanzas had planned an insurrection ; they were organised, and officers appointed, and designed to march on that city, where they were to be joined by 2,000 more. On Friday, last week, their plans were detected, and in the evening about 20 of the ringleaders were arrested, tried, and will probably be executed. These attempts at insurrection are becoming quite frequent on the island, and show plainly that there is some malign agency constantly at work, urging on the poor unfortunate blacks to attempts at insurrections, which necessarily must, from the nature of things here, fail of accomplishing their ends. The authorities are always on the alert, ever awake to detect, and willing and fully able to punish the deluded creatures, there being a large number of soldiers dispersed through the different parts of the island, and a numerous and efficient body of (manteros) mounted militia, always ready to co-operate with them, and whose means of gaining in formation are very great. The United States' ship Falmouth, Commander Sands, sailed for Matanzas yesterday morning, he having received a letter from the American Consul there, stating that the American population were in a good deal of alarm, in consequence of the large number of blacks said to have been concerned in the designed insurrection, and of their intention of marching on that place. I have no doubt, however, that the affair is now settled for a time, and as little doubt but that in a short time we shall hear of another insurrection, which must always end in the same manner, that is, with the execution of some sixty to a hundred or more of the blacks engaged in them, justly or unjustly im plicated." " About six weeks since the negroes on three or four plantations in the vicinity of Matanzas rose, but were soon put down. Last Sunday the news arrived here of another insurrection on the sugar estate of Mr. Aldama, and some thing more serious ; it seems the negroes had orders from the workmen on the said estate to rise, burn, and murder all they found in their neighbourhood. Some say that the workmen had orders from Mr. Aldama to advise them to do this. This can be believed, as said gentleman in company with his relations, the Messrs. Alphonso, are known to be abolitionists ; at any rate this will cost them a great deal of money. Government has thought it prudent to be silent on this subject, yet you hear of it wherever you go." Cotton at New York was not so brisk, and _State Stocks had fallen, money being scarce. The West India Mail is hourly expected. The Commissioners bought 10,000/. Reduced Three per Cents. this morning at 98k. There has not been much busi ness transacted this morning. Consols for Account have fluctuated only from 97* to 97i ; and for Money from 97A to 97k. The premium upon Exchequer Bills has rather de clined. For India Stock 278 and 2771 has been paid, and for Bank Stock 193. An improved market has ruled for the Spanish Stock this morning. We are told that a fresh attempt is to be made to raise a new loan in this country ; but there is a small chance only of success. The Spanish Active Bonds have been advanced to 24i a., and the Three per Cents. to 34 There is not any variation worth notice in the other Foreign Stocks. _ _ The transactions in the market for the Railway shares have not been numerous, and the prices have scarcely varied from those of yesterday. 111A.NCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, FEB. 7.—We have no material alteration to note in our market to-day.

Bruges Temple - 206 Majority- -- 142 REPRESENTATION OF LANCASTER.—Mr. Marten states that the rei•ort that he was about to resign his seat for Lan. caster " is mere invention." A public supper of the Hoxton Anti-Corn-law Asso ciation took place on Wednesday evening at the North Briton, New North-road, to celebrate the anniversary of its formation. The festival was most numerously attended, and the large room was crowded to excess. CURIOUS MANORIAL RIGHTS.—At Ripley Castle, in Yorkshire, the seat of Sir William Ingilby, there is in the great staircase an elegant Venetian window, in the divisions of which, on stained glass, are a series of escutcheons, dis playing the principal quarterings and intermarriages of the Ingilby family since their settling at Ripley, during a course of 430 years. In one of the chambers of the tower is the following sentence,'carved on the frieze of the wainscot : —" In the yeire of owre Ld. MDLV. was this howse buylded, by Sir Wyllyam Ingilby, Knight, Philip and Marie reigning that time." John Pallisser of Bristhwaite, formerly held his lands of the manor of Ripley by the payment of a red rose at Midsummer, and by carrying the boar's nead to the lord's table all the twelve days of Christmas.

THE NEW GRESHAM CLUB. The members of the Gresham Club celebrated the laying the first stone of the New Club House, by a dinner given last evening at LLu Albion, 11dersgate-street. The Lord Mayor presided, and more than a hundred and twenty gentlemen sat down to a splendid repast served tip in the best style of this well known establishment. T. Lamle Murray, Esq., acted as Vice-President. The new club will be a great addition to the institutions of the City, where it was much wanted. The members seem determined to carry on their under taking with spirit, and the rules and regulations are on so liberal a scale, that there can be no doubt but that it will be widely and effectively supported. Several gentlemen were invited to the dinner on the occasion. Among those present were (besides the Lord Mayor) Mr. Sheriff Moore, Mr. Under-Sheriff Anderton, Mr. Alderman Wood, the Rev. Dr. Croly, Messrs. Amory, Underwood, Davis, Westall, Caldecott, Cubitt, Cartar, Baylis, Silver, Mr. Sergeant Murphy, M.P., R. L. Jones, Esq., Messrs. Harker, Jeffery, parr, Conquest, Ingleden, Bloss, Beadwell, Hartley, Parker, Thornborrow, and many other merchants and gentlemen of influence. On the removal of the cloth, a " Benedictus" was sung by the pro fessional vocalists, after which — The LORD MAYOR gave " The Queen," " The Queen Dowager," " His Royal Highness Prince Albert, and the rest of the Royal Fa mily," in succession. They were each drank with the utmost loyalty and enthusiasm. The LORD MA.yox then gave the " Army and Navy." MEESON, Esq. (Commodore of the Royal Yacht Club) acknow ledged the toast, being in some degree connected with at least one branch of the marine of England.—(Cheers.) The LORD Miron. said he had now to propose a toast which he was sure would_ give them the greatest satisfaction.—(Hear, hear.) It had that day been his good fortune to have the pleasure of assist ing to lay the foundation-stone of the new Gresham Club-house. — (Loud cheers.) He was satisfied that the spirit of the individuals who had combined together to erect that building, would produce a mansion which would be as great an ornament to the City as it would be a comfort and convenience to the gentlemen and merchants of the City generally.—(Cheers.) Such a convenience was greatly wanted, and he had now as much satis faction in proposing the toast of prosperity to the Club as they would have in drinking it. He gave " Prosperity to the Gresham Club." Drank with three times three, and rotuids of enthusiastic cheering frequently renewed. T. LOUR MURRAY, Esq., responded to the toast. He said he felt considerably embarrassed on the present occasion—more em barrassed perhaps than he had ever felt in his life, because he saw before him a task that was difficult to perform. In the first instance he had to discharge a debt of gratitude, a debt which to an honourable mind was always one of the first obli gations. As a member of the Club, he felt great gratitude to the honourable individual he then had the pleasure of addressing.— (Cheers.) His gratitude was only equalled by the respect he felt for him.—(Cheers.) In common with all the members of the Club, lie felt that his Lordship had conferred a great favour on them that day. —(Cheers.) A favour which, when he remembered how deeply he (Mr. Murray) was pledged to the success of this undertaking, he felt that he could never sufficiently repay.—(Loud cheers.) His Lordship had condescended to lay the foundation stone of the in stitution, in which he and other members of that Club were much interested, and he had done so with a degree of urbanity only ex celled by the efficient manner in which he had discharged his duty.— (Cheers.) This was not the place to discuss the topic of clubs gene rally. Clubs were a much older institution than was supposed. Those who were acquainted with British history must know that clubs were connected with almost every great achievement in their political annals. The institution of clubs had been known almost ever since the beginning of British history. At the present day, clubs contained more comfort, more convenience, more elegance, more management, and more refinement, than any establishments known to firmer ages. It might be that some of them contained more selfishness than was intended should be practised in the Gresham Club.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) A club combined all the advan tages of a select society, with all the advantages of sociality. Asso ciated in a club, men were placed in a position better to carry out whatever measure the society was formed for, whether its nature were political or commercial. They fortunately united among themselves men of all politics—(Cheers)—and of all pursuits—men who, however they differed on other subjects, were fortu nately united in the principle of sociality. He had lent his humble aid to the formation of this club ; he had embarked his energies in it, and, as far as his humble abilities were concerned, he should continue to give it his support. The Gresham Club had met with wonderful success ; this was principally owing to the selection of the Committee ; since the day of its formation they had never had a single difference; there had been among them none of those private jealousies and petty piques which they had seen in other societies.—(Hear, hear.) Placed in the centre of the great inert of commerce, this Club bore the name of the eminent and single minded Sir Thomas Gresham, a man to whom the City of London was, more than to any other individual, indebted. Sir Thomas Gresham enjoyed the financial confidence of three monarchs, and those who had read of the difficulties in which those monarchs were placed, must appreciate the disinterestedness with which he served them. having the misfortune to be deprived by death of his only son, he dedicated the wealth which that son would have in herited to raise a building devoted to commerce in the centre of the greatest commercial city in the world. His name they had chosen as that of their Club. lie would not detain them longer than to state a matter of business connected with the institution. The club was conceived In a liberal spirit ; it was a happy concep tion ; and in the same spirit in which it was conceived, it would be carried out. It was begun with but few members, and 'with a spirit of economy. They were determined that it should support itself, and that, whether they had few mem bers or many, those who became members should not have to pay for the extravagance of those who had been in it before. While they took economy for their motto and principle, they could ask new friends to join them, saying, at the same time, "We don't take you in —(Cheers and laughter) —we don't deceive you ; we ask you to associate with men determined to pay their way."—(Cheers.) They had got a building in progress which, for beauty of style and eleva tion, considering the means at command, could not be ex ceeded one which would be considered an ornament to the City of London. They would scarcely, perhaps, believe him when he told them that they should sit in that building for a rental of 5201. a year. That could not be considered an extravagant rent to pay for sueh large and commodious premises in such a central part of London. If they looked at the plans of the interior, they would find that economy was combined with comfort ; it was impossible that any merchant or any nobleman could be better accommodated than they should be. He now asked 'them to fill bumpers to the toast he had to give them, which was the health of the Chief Magistrate of the City of London.—(Cheers.) He passed a warm eulogium on the manner in which his Lordship had discharged his public duties, especially for his firmness and temper in an im portant inquiry still pending, and for the manner in which he had abated the nuisance of the omnibuses loitering in the City. He con cluded by again proposing the toast, which was warmly received by the assembly. The LORD MAYOR briefly acknowledged the compliment. Mr. LAMIE MuRRAY then proposed " The Health of the Rev. Dr. Croly."--(Great cheering.) The Rev. Dr. CROLY returned thanks. He expressed his gratitude for the warm and unanimous feeling they had displayed towards him. At the same time he must say that he had been a little taken in. lie came to a club dinner, taking it for granted that they could do as they liked, drink what they pleased, and go away without hav- Ing anything to say at the end of it.—(Laughter.) But he found he had to submit to a superior force, though he confessed it was the most amiable of all tyrannies. lie expressed the satisfaction he felt as rector of the parish in which the club-house was to be situated, and thanked the Committee for giving such a substitute for the miserable tissue of streets that formerly existed on the site. He then glanced at the nature of clubs generally. The Parliament of England itself was only a club.—(Cheers.) The earliest club in his memory was the club of Hercules.—(Cheers and laughter.) As long as Hercules remained a bachelor lie stuck to his club—it was his constant partner. But a change at last came over Ilercules ' and he got married.— (Laughter.) His wife, like many modern wives, insisted on his cut ting his club—(Cheers)—and Hereules lost his spirit, abandoned his vocation, and became an old woman.—(Cheers and laughter.) His subsequent history tells that, though he did not exactly beat hemp, yet he took to spinning It. Like a sailor in his old age, he became a gossip, and took to " long yarns."—(Great laughter.) He should not go deeper into the prohibited history of clubs. lie should merely tell them a short story from a witty divine, better known for success of his literary efforts than for that of his Pennsylvanian specula tions.—(Much cheering and great laughter.) Some stranger to London asked the Rev. Gentleman what was the nature of the London clubs? lie told him they were of various kinds, but that there was one, of which the constitution was peculiar, and in which the members spoke a peculiar language adapted only to their own capacitids. The members of this club, Sheridan, with a humorous in solence, called the " wooden walls of old England."—(Laughter.) They were all agricultural gentlemen. When they talked at all, they talked of nothing but prize oxen ; and when they sat down to cards, they played for sheep points, and a bullock the rubber !—(Loud laughter.) He concluded by proposing the "Corporation of London." The toast was neatly acknowledged by Mr. Alderman Wow), and was followed by the " Health of the Sheriffs," acknowledged by Mr. Sheriff MOON. Mr. AMORY gave " Prosperity to the City of London, and the trade thereof," which was drank with great applause. Mr. Mayon proposed " Mr. Sergeant Murphy and their visitors." Mr. Sergeant Muaruy having responded to the toast in an able address, gave the health of " the Vice-President, Mr. Lamle Murray." Mr. LAMIE MURRAY very briefly returned thanks. The following toasts were then given— " The Committee," proposed by Dr. CROLY, and acknowledged by Mr. DAVIS.__ •• The Solicitor of the Clnb, Mr. Avery," and " The Architect, Mr. H. Flower." The company then separated, after a pleasant and convivial even ing. The best anticipations are entertained of the future prosperity of the Club, fully warranted by the excellent spirit that seemed to pervade every one connected with it. We ought to mention that the enjoyment of the evening was much heightened by the very efficient corps of vocalists, consisting of Messrs. T. Cooke, Young, Taylor, Machin, and. Masters Stevens and Sullivan, who gave several favourite songs and glees in very superior style. LAW INTELLIGENCE. ARCHES' COURT; Feb. 7. THE OFFICE OF THE JUDGE PROMOTED BY TITCHMARSH AGAINST CHAPMAN. This was a cause, which in its preliminary stages has been several times noticed,' in which proceedings have been instituted, under the Church Discipline Act, against a clergyman (the Rev. William Herbert Chap man, Rector of Basingbourn, in the province of Ely) for refusing to bury the corpse of a parishioner (the infant daughter of a member of a congregation of Independents), without sufficient cause for such refusal. The defen dant at first appeared under protest to the Court's juris diction, on the ground that the time limited by the Act had run out ; but this protest was overruled, and an application to a Court of law for a prohibition failed. The articles were subsequently brought in and admitted, and an allegation was now offered defensive to the articles, which pleaded the law and a justification upon the facts. As this, in point of form, was only a question as to the admissibility of a plea ex parte,—though the decision of this question may possibly decide the case, — and as the argument on the part of the defendant in support of the allegation was only part heard, we shall at present restrict our report to a statement of the nature of the defence set up by the defendant's counsel. After the QUEEN'S ADVOCATE and Dr. ADDAMS, on behalf of the promoter, had argued against the admissi bility of the allegation, principally on the ground that the question had been already decided in the case of " Kemp v. Wickes," and " Mastin v. Escott"—the latter decision having been affirmed by the Judicial Com• mittee on appeal — Dr. PHILLIMORE, for the Rev. Mr. Chapman, observed that this was a proceeding pro salute animas, under the 68th canon, by a person whom he maintained to be, according to the law and language of the Church, and in the sense of the Church, a schismatic or heretic. He did not deny, after the decision in " Mastin v. Escott," the validity of lay-baptism ; but he set up that this was a heretical baptism, the effect of which was a question which this ourt and the Judicial Committee had specially reserved. The first point, therefore, was, whether this baptism was heretical or schismatic ? secondly, if so, what was the effect of such a baptism ? And there was a third question, namely, whether a member of an Independent congregation could proceed, under the canon, against a clergyman of the Church of England, to punish him pro salute animas ? The Learned Advocate then proceeded to show what was heresy, defining a heretic " one whose opinions were opposite to those of the Established Church," and a schismatic, " one who separated himself from the true Church ;" and he cited the Statutes 1 Elizabeth, c. 1, 29 Car. 11., the Councils of Constantinople and of Chal cedon. The effect of heretical baptism he showed from St. Augustin, and that it required something to be done before a person so baptised could b e a d m i tte d i nto t h e bosom of the Church. Sir H. J. Fun—Do you mean to contend that hereti cal baptism is no baptism at all ? Dr. PHILLIMORE—No ,• it is good after certain cere monies are performed. The ceremony of baptism is not required to be performed over again. There are defi ciencies in the performance of the rite which must be supplied. Here is a heretic putting forward a canon of the Church against a clergyman pro salute animas. We do not interfere with the civil rights of the party; this is no question as to a civil right, but as to a spiritual right. Ido not say that the party is not a Christian. TheCoußT—Then she is entitled to Christian burial. Dr. PHILLIMORE—CertainIy, in their own cemetery. The Couar—Then it is compulsory on such persons to provide cemeteries for themselves? permit Dr. hereticnLlthat m ot i 3 o . o n uac canon t morE—sci‘hfisymaartguic argument is, of the Church for punishing a clergyman for the good of his soul. The Conwr—ls this child a heretic ? Dr. l'EmusfoitE—Yes, in one sense. not been baptised at should not have burial ; but The CounT—l can unde rstand why a child who has cannot understand how a child should be refused buria L • because it is a heretic. DC. PHILLIMORE—The child was baptised M heresy and schism. The COURT—The canon excepts such as " have been denounced excommunicate majore excommunications for some grievous and notorious crime." Has this child been so denounced ? You do not distinguish between the effect of heresy and schism on the party adminis tering the rite and on the party to whom the rite is ad - . ministered. Dr. PUILLIMORE—The party deceased is excluded • from a spiritual right by the fault of her parents. The argument stands over till next Court day. BANKRUPTCY COURT, Feb. 8. (Before Sir C. WILLIAMS.) • IN RE CHARLES MATTHEWS. The insolvent in this case, who was the well known and popular comedian, appeared this day upon his petition as 8n insolvent under the New Bankruptcy Act for his first exam' nation. fle was opposed by Messrs. James and Cooke, and sup ported by Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Chadwick Jones. The insolvent, through his Counsel, prayed for an adjourn' went, on the ground that he wished to arrange with certai n creditors who had entered an opposition. The application Was opposed on the ground that any such a rrangemen t as tha t contemplated by the insolvent would injure the great bed) . of the creditors. • After the examination of several creditors the Learned Commissioner consented to allow the case to stand adjourned to this day week. CENTRAL CRI VIINAL COURT• OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE and Mr. Justice L Causeencli' Elizabeth Todd and Sarah Trussler were pl ace d a t the bar, charged with forging a receipt, for the purpose of defrauding th e Rev. John Hume Spry and Robert William Shead. The indi ct. inept contained several counts varying the charge. Mr. Clarkson conducted the pros e cuti on , an d M r. Wilkins .nd Mr, Huddleston appeared for the defendants. It appeared, from the statement of Mr. CLAaxsox, that th e prosecutors in this case were the trustees of the Mailieb eee Savings' Bank. The bank had several th o u san d d e p o sitors. w h o i deposited money in it to the amount of 390 , 000 t. Asecn i g:. the depositors was a person named M ar y T o dd. On th e 20th of January the defendant, Elizabeth Todd, gave pol l— of her intention to draw the mo ne y d epos it e d by O i l Todd, to the amount of 1161. Sh e represen ted her se lf to be Mary Todd, but on comparing her handy/tit le : with that of the original depositor, it appeared to be differen" On the 30th she came for the money, but was told that as th ere was some suspicion about her, she should procure the declarstio ne w as of some respectable per sons as to h er identity. She said she w the person who deposit e d th e money, an d the defendant, Sarah Trussler, came forw ar d an d sa id s h e k new h er to be I°' Tbe money was, however, refused, and in some time after the defendant , Todd, came to the bank, and said there was no use in denying t l f, fact—that she was not Mary Todd, but her s ist e r ; that she had bee': drawn 201., and she now wanted the remainder. It appeared tba; the original depositor, Mary Todd, had died, an d le ft Robert Ted * her sole executor. He was produced before the Magistrate, and be declared that part of the money depo s it e d in the bank belonged to Elizabeth Todd, and he was aware of her going to the bank 0 re. ceive the money. Witnesses were called, who proved the above facts. Mr. Witams then addressed the jury on behalf of Elisabe th Todd, and Mr. HUDDLESION on behalf of the other prisoner. s Mr. Justice COLERIDGE summed up the evidence, and told jury they ought, in his opinion, to find a verdict of guilty refs: di...- of the consequences. The jury found the prisoners Guilty, but strongly recomMe o444 them to mercy. Mr. CLaaaso.v made the same request on behalf of t he prosecutors. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE sentenced each of the prisoners to i t / years' imprisonment in the House of Correction. He power to sentence them fur a shorter period, but in all probills the sentence of the Court would be mitigated upon applicatl ° the proper quarter. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) CLERKEN WELL.
