In the Ifouce of Lords last night the County Courts Extension Bill was, on the motion of Lord 13 aouciriam, referred to a Select Committee. Under ordinary circumstances, we should have considered such a course fatal to the measure during the present asssion—that it was, in fact, intended to get rid of a Bill respecting which intense interest is felt by the industrious classes throughout the entire country, without incurring the obloquy of a direct rejection of is salutary provisions; but from what fell from the Noble and Darned Lord, who has rendered more valuable assistance to the cause of legal reform, than any man of the age, we are sati s fi e d t h at there is and the' the object o f th e no real danger to the Bill , proposed inquiry is really . and truly wh a t it pro . few' to be—an anzim desire to node: a 11114ect of the deepest and most vital importance to the national prosperity as perfect as it can possibly be, and to re move the dangers that may arise from any crude or hasty legislation. Nothing could be more distinct or explicit than what fell from the Noble and Learned Lord on the occasion. He expressly declared that "he did not propose this Committee with the slightest inten tion of delaying the measure, for if he found that there was any intention of the kind he would at once move that the Chairman report progress. And he gave this notice to whoever might intend to vote for delay in the Select Committee, that he would be the first to meet that attempt at delay, by moving that the Chairman report progress, and then let the House deal with the Bill in the best way it could." After such a statement every possible doubt as to the motives of the Noble and Learned Lord must be completely re moved, who has thug, to use his own words, afforded the strongest possible " guarantee to the public that the measure would not be delayed longer than was ab solutely necessary to its efficiency." Three important alterations were suggested by the Noble Lord in the provisions of the Bill, as sane• tioned by the representative branch of the Legisla ture. These alterations, which he had previously given notice of moving as amendments to the Bill in Committee, were similar to the provisions which he had brought forward in 1833 :—First, to give parties the option of going either before the superior or the county courts in cases where the amount was be tween 201. and 501.; secondly, to give powers of ap peal on points of law ; and thirdly, to create in certain cases a concurrent jurisdiction. With respect to the first point, if both parties should agree in having their differences adjudicated upon by the higher tribunal, it is exceedingly desirable that they should be at liberty to do so, and that not only where the sum in dispute exceeded 201., but in all cases whatsoever. Questions of vast importance, where the real point at issue may amount to many thousands of pounds sterling, may nominally be for the recovery of only a few shillings. Ttousands of similar cases may depend on the result of the first decision, and it would be manifestly unjust to compel the parties to abide by the decision of the county court judge, unaided by the arguments of competent and well-qualified barristers, and with the risk of conflicting judgments, a contingency which, to say the least of it, would be by no means improbable. If, however, the plaintiff in the suit were allowed the option, at his own mere will and pleasure, and without assigning any satisfactory reasons for the selection he might make, it would completely do away with the efficacy of the Bill, and render it practically worse than useless—an instrument of op pression and persecution, in place of a mode of cheap and expeditious justice We have already fully explained our views with respect to the proposed " right of appeal." The country requires " cheap law," but not " bad law." In strongly contssted cases neither party will be satisfied with the decision of the county court judge. He will believe" that if he had the power of appealing to a superior tribunal the result would be very different, and he will thus become discon•ented and dissatisfied with the state of the law under which what he, at least, believed to be deep injustice had been perpe trated. Such an opinion is very dangerous, and shou'al by no means be encouraged, and every reasonable precaution should be taken to prevent • the possibility of its being formed. Care should, of course, be taken to prevent the privilege from being strained from its legitimate ob ject, by being resorted to merely for the sake of delay and annoyance to the creditor. But this danger would he completely removed either by giving the right solely on condition of the full amount of debt and costs being lodged in court, or at least being amply secured in the event of the original judgment being affirmed; or by granting the appeal only by leave of the Court, and on such conditions as the judge should determine. This privilege, so far from deteriorating the character of the inferior tribunals, would, in fact, afford the best guarantee for their efficiency. Al though there might not be a single appeal out of each hundred cases, the very knowledge that such was practicable would induce the judge to bestow full care and mature consideration upon every deci sion. He would avoid anything approximating to a crude, or hasty, or petulant judgment, when as.iured that it might be reviewed in Westminster Hall and in the presence of his professional brethren. Every indis cretion would be carefully avoided, and the character of the courts would be materially raised as well from the additional pains bestowed by the judges as that it would prevent the pssibility of any unfair or un warranted imputations being cast upon these learned gentlemen by dissatisfied litigants. And, surely, when a power of appeal is given from the most eminent members of the judicial bench, it cannot be considered an indignity to the inferior judges if their decisions should be subjected to a similar scrutiny. As to the concurrent jurisdiction, we confess that we have grave doubts of its propriety, and we fear that it would prove destructive to the salutary effects of the measure. If the plaintiff, or rather the plaintiff's attorney, should be enabled to select the scene of the litigation, he would still resort to the superior courts for the purpose of swelling the costs, or com pelling the defendant to submit to extortionate de mands from a reasonable dread of the expense of re sisting them. Besides, the power of appeal, within judicious limits, would completely remove any neces sity for such a concurrent jurisdiction. What motive except an undue and exaggerated fear of the power of the Pharisees should prevent Lord JOHN RttseLt. from at once res•oring to us our Post office delivery on Sunday it is hard to imagine. The answer of the Noble Lord last evening to the ques tion put to him by Mr. SPOONER proves that the proposed inquiry need not stand in the way of the immediate restoration of the regime of common sense in respect to this matter. It appears, from the re port of the proceedings in the House of Commons last evening, that Mr. SPOONER asked the Noble Lord at the head of the Government whether it was the intention of her Maaesrfs Government to lay be tore Parliament the report of the Commissioners ap• pointed to inquire into the working of the Post-office regulations respecting Sunday labour, together with the evidence taken before those Commis sioners ; also, whether permission would be given to any parties who might require it, to produce evidence before such Commissioners ; to which Lord Joss Russia', replied " that he had no objection that the report of the gentlemen appointed to inquire into this subject should be laid on the table of the House as soon as it was made. He did not know that it would be necessary for the Commit tee to take any evidence further than that of a docu mentary-charicter. He did not see anything in the address of that House which required that fresh evi deuce should be taken, and he did not propose that the Committee should r e ce i ve evidence. " If the Commissioners are not to receive evidence, where can be the n ecess i ty f or the delay reply of which the s y and to e one ver Marquis of CLANRICAR DE t a lk e d in of the deputations which wa it e d on him during the course of the week ? The documents are, have been, in the possession of the Government ; with their contents the Marquis of CLrubait wellcsn that d Lord JOHN RUSSELL are no ac quainted, and they are just as competent to decide the question as the Commissio ners ; all is %anted is a little pressure, and we again urge upon any Individual who feels himself aggrieved to make known his grievance by letter to the Prime Minister. Let us once set the voting power in motion, and we shall find no greater difficulty in preventing the Minister from giving effect to the mad schemes of the Sabbatarians than we did, two years since, in pre venting him from increasing the income. tax. Every day brings additional proof of the inconvience inflicted on individuals and the public by this most mischievously absurd attempt to stop all social inter course by letter on Sunday ; not cnly does it torture the best affections by its cruel interference in pre venting tee communication between parents and children, not only does it tend to the ruin of the mer chant and trad •sman by obstructing his communications with his banker or his agent, but it absolutely stops the progress of legislation. In the course of the dis cussion on the County Courts Bill, in the House of Peers last evening, Lord BROUGHAM stated, as a reason for postponing the progress of the measure, that " a Noble and ',turned 1` rind of his (Lord Darc7-* MAN) was still unable, from the bad state of his health, to resume his attendance ; but he (Lord Brougham) was in communication with him, and only for the Post-office regulation—(Laughter)—by which there would be a day's delay, he would receive from him a full statement of his doubts and the amendments he proposed, on Monday, but on Tuesday he would re ceive that statement." -We trust that these accumulating evidences of the mischievous nature of the alterations introduced in compliance with the crotchets of the Judaiziug Sabbatarians will produce their effect on the Government, and that to-morrow will be the last Sunday of which the " bitter" ob 2ervance will be enforced. It is noble in an individual to devote his time, his talents, and his purse to the service of mankind ; it is no less noble in those who have marked his long and disinterested labours to come forward and show that he has commanded their sympathies and their admiration, and to put him in possession of some tes timonial that shall transmit to future generations the knowledge of the Pict that the public benefactor was not forgotten. It ha. 4 been our happiness to be called to witness both these gratifying s , pectacles. For fifteen years a gentleman, whose professional acquirements, if directed solely to the advancement of his own benefit, would have secured him by this time a high position and an ample income, has gene rously consecrated his powers to the work of exposing and removing a disgraceful and demoralising nuisance—that of annually putting be neath a thin surface of already poisoned earth tens of thousands of dead bodies, to diffuse in the process of corruption a pestilential miasma to be inspired by the busy millions of this great city. The toils—for years unnoticed—and which when first observed were met with the stern opposition of those who, deeming their craft in danger, ceased not to denounce the in termeddler in their unholy pursuits, and to cry out Great is Diana of the Ephesians "—these toils, we say, at length awoke a slumbering city to its danger, and at last compelled a reluctant Government to at tend to what should ever be its first duty—the care of the public health. Our readers will before this have syl tabled the name we are about to write, that of GEORGE ALFRED WALKER. The recent legislation on the subject of burial in towns has directed all eyes to the merito rious pioneer in this cause of sanitary reform ; and our paper of Thursday shows that the apostle of purity, of decency, and of morality, will in due time receive in some substantial form a suitable memorial of the admiration and gratitude he has so richly me rited. We cordially join in the proposed testimonial, and can sincerely say, Palmam qui meruit ferat, THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Assembly has confirmed its resolution of in sisting on the publication of the name of the author of each article which map appear in a journal. The hatred ill-suppressed hitherto of the Legiti matists and parti-pretre to the Press, has at length burst forth, and journals and journalists of all shades and opi nions are denounced from the tribune in language such as the leaguers were wont to apply to the Huguenots just previous to that massacre of St. Bartholomew's, of which M. DE FALLOUX is the apologist, and M. DE MONTALEMBEET the justifier. The Journal des Debats comm:nces its premier Paris in these words : —" We were wrong in reckoning on the intelligence or on the equity of our Legislators become our judges." After stating the result:of the vote on the amendment of M. TINGUY, the Debats proceeds : " We have heard a war-cry from the tribune against the press, as an odious rival and enemy. What strange preoccupation what strange blindness of parliamentary self-love and vanity !" This war-cry was raised by M. DE LehouLts, one of the most bigotted instruments of theparti pretre. "We must finish with journalism," ex claimed this worthy representative of the ignorant old ❑obles•e, " we must destroy journaliism as we have destroyed the barricades." Thus, says the Debats, the work attempted two 3 ears since by N. LEDRU ItoLLIN and M. PascAL DUPRAT is accomplished by the party of order It is almost amusing to hear the maniacal cries-of these descendants of the old French aristocracy for the destruction of every person and of every thing that they dislike or fear—it would really seem as if they were anxious to furnish an expost facto 'justification of the conduct of ROBESPIERRE, who defended the reign of terror as an act of selt-defence, because the nobles, unless exterminated, would extirminate everybody else. The Legitimatists are opposed to any prorogation of the Assembly, fearing a coup d'etat on the part of the PRE•IDEIN T. Tne Assembly has voted a law declaring the island of Guadaloupe in a state of siege. Letters from Toulon of the Bth inst. state that the steam corvette Solon suddenly left that port on the 6ch with pressing dispatches for the Vice-Admiral commanding the Mediterranean squadron. It was reported that the English >quadron of evolution was expected off Cuba, where the Spaniards were concen trating the whole of their navy. The committee appointed to examine the Orleans and Bordeaux and the Tours and Nantes Railroad Bill met on Thursday. Some of the committee voted in favour of a lease of 99 years, but the ma jority decided for 50 years, as fixed by the Moister of Public Works. M. Ducos was appointed reporter.

The hope of an understanding was not aban doned, and to give time for the negotiations the pre sent organization of the Prussian Bund is prolonged provisionally for three months. The secession of the Elector of Hesse from the Bund was officially announced. Lt-tters from Vienna state that the clergy of Moravia have protested apinst any attempt on the part of the Government to interfere with tithes or ecclesiastical revenues. The Emperor of AUSTRIA has bestowed on JEL LACHICH a dotation of one million of francs. The wags of Vienna, says the correspondent of the Na • tional, continue to call JELLACHICH the greatest sophist in the empire.

ITALY The Advocate CERNUSCHI, who for the last twelve month has been confined in the dungeons of Rome to gratify the truly sacredotal hatred of the priests and cardinals, has at length been released, after having been twice tried on the same charges before a French court-martial aud twice acquitted. The Official Gazelle of Naples, of the 7th instant, says, the note of the English Mi nis t er re l a ti ve t o t h e demand for indemnities for the losses of English subjects had been received and laid before the Com mittee appointed for investigating such claims, and that the Ministers of Prussia, England, France, and Austria, had been invited to a conference on the sub ject, at which it was resolved that the matter should be arranged by peaceful negotiation, and that there is no fear of other measures being resorted to. The Senate of Turin, in its sitting of the 6 , 1), voted by a majority of 48 to 15 the Bill already passed by the Chamber of Deputies, granting a credit of 100,000 f. for the relief of Italian emi grants.—ln its sitting of the same day, the Chamber of Deputies, after some discussion, voted the order of the day on the question addressed to the Cabinet by Signor Gavolli on the subject of the artillery of the national guard of Genoa. The Minister of Agriculture and Commerce afterwards presented two Bills, one for the general re-organiza tion of differential duties, and the other on navigation dues. The Giornale di Roma of the 2d states that Cardi nal Altieri having convoked the provincial council of the province of Rome, accordiog to the law of July 5, 1831, that body assembled on the ht, in his palace, and after a short speech ;addressed to the Cardinal as president of the province, immediately proceeded to buAiness, which related chiefly to the good adminis tration and direction of the ioterests of the province. The Milan Gazette of the 6 - h officially announces that the great electro-telegraphic line of the Austrian empire will in a few days be extended to Milan, and will be open to the use of the Government as well as that of the public. _ _ The Doke of Castiglione returned from Vienna on the 4th to Florence, and immediately resumed the portfolio of Foreign Affgirs.

Smith and Son, 1, Eden-quay, Dublin :—] NORTH OF IRELAND-12TH OF JULY AFFRAY BETWEEN ORANGEMEN AND THE POLICE, CLOSE TO THE TOWN OF BELFAST. Last night (Thursday), about twelve o'clock, a great number of persons assembled near Malone turnpike, moving towards the town. The police, though numbering only five, under Constable Hind, prepared to meet the crowd of several hundreds, and, as they came through the turnpike, the police noticed a procession in the act of forming, headed by a young lad, beating a large drum, decorated with orange lilies. The police arrested the youth, when the mob hooted and pelted them wi•h stones, and endeavoured to rescue the prisoner. The pollee, with the prisoner and the drum, reached the barrack, which was at once attacked, and all the windows in front broken. The crowd would listen to neither en treaties nor threats, the police loading their carbines and fixing their bayonets without avail; when at last the police were compelled, in self-defence, to fire first one shot, which being unheeded, a volley cf four more was fired, on which two young men (William Walker, 17, bearer of the drum, and William Ander son, one of the rescuing party) fell badly wounded. An investigation before the Mayor and Mr. Tracey, P.M., is to be held at the police-office this day (Friday).— Chronicle. SUICIDE OF WALTER WATTS. This m.,ruing the greatest excitement prevailed in Newgate amongst the turnkeys end others, when it became known that Walter Watt'', the lat e 1 ssee of the cOolmymmplitetedThLiaitcl had, at thr ee o ' c l oc k th i s morn i ng by banging. But a few hours before Lail Donovan terminated his existence in pre cisely a similar manner, and during the day had both the deceased received their sentence for their separate crimes from the same judge, and is the same court. It appears that Walter Watts had, d ur i ng hi s con fi nement in Newgate, been so ill, that for the last few weeks he bad teen an inmate of the ward infirmary. In the same room were six other prisoners.

He was imm.diatelv ciit down, and Mr. M'Murdo, the prison -surgeon, called, but it was too late, the unfurrunete deceased having breathed his last an hour before being discovered. The excitement which prevails in the neighbourhood is in tense, and the circumstance of two prisoners hanging themselves in one thy requires baking into. CABINET COUNCIL—(I'BM DAY.)--A Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign-otlice to-day, at twelve o'clock.

ADULT DEAF AND DUSID INSTITUTION.—Last evening a meeting of the friends and so. scribe's to the above institution was held in the board-room, '26, Red Lion-square, Bloomsbury. The routine business having been dispcsed a warm tribute was paid to the memory of the late president of the institution, the Duke of Cambridge, to whose liberality and ready personal exertion much of the progress and prosperity of the charity was indebted. His Royal Highness, it was observed, had already warmly advocated the ihstitu• Lion, and had consent e d t o p res ide over the ensuing anniver sary festival. The m ee ti ng ex pressed its deep regret in the demise of his Royal Highness —a a loss that wo uld be sever e l y felt by many publi c c h ar i t i es. an d equally by the public at large.

Coleman, it was unanimously agreed to liquidate the estate under a deed of inspectorship. The statement presented showed that the gross liabilities amounted to 1133;004, which will be reduced by securities held and bills ex pect. dto run off to about 30,000/. The greater part of the millets being produce, it is hoped that it good market prices are realised a dividend of 43. 6d. or ss. may be eventually distritaited.

One of the most interesting of the city of London fes tivals tsok place yesterday, when the members of the Bridge-house Committee, their ladies, and a select circle of visitors, proceeded from Kew to Twickenham on board the Maria Wood, one of the splendid barges be longing to the city, and one most admirably adapted for such a species of entertainment as that of which it was yesterday the scene. About a hundred and thirty ladies and gentlemen were asseatbled, including Aldermen Sir Chapman Marshall, J. Humphery, M.P., and F. G. Moon, James Low, Esq., Jacob Goodhart, Esq., and many members of the Common Council and their ladies. WI ile the Maria Wood was bsing slowly towed from Kest to Twickenham, the company amused themselves awhile in admiring the beautiful panotsitna afforded by the banks ' of the Thames, which, in the neighbourhood of Rich mond and Twickenham, present a continued succession picturesquef views. But this contemplative entertain ment constituted only a small part of the day's amusements. An excellent band was in attendance and the deck of the Maria Wood, throughout the early part of the day, was converted into a salon de dense. Quadrilles, w atz•te, and polkas whiled away the time moil, on the arrival of the barge at Twickenham, the lair dancers (the gentleu.en not being allowed to share in the privilege) landed and visited the memorable grotto of the poet Pepe. On the re-assembling of the party the real business of the day com menced. The artistic skill and the active ex ertions f Mr. Yourighusband (the City Sayer) had rendered the saloon of the Maria' Wood a miniature Guildhall, where frown hundred to a hundred and fifty guests sat down to a magnific nt and plentiful entertainment. The chair was se ry ably filled by Mr. James Low, one of the members of the committee. The success of such peculiar entertainments very materially depends upon the president, and the assembly of yester day was in this respect remarkably fortunate. Careful to avoid anything like a " long speech" Mr. Low rendered his discourses brief In quantity but excellent in quality. His remarks were singularly emphatic, and enlivened with many happy and appropriate allusions, which were not lost upon the auditory. Ono of the happiest instances of this most excellent characteristic in a chait man occurred in the prefatory rentarke to the toast of " The Army and Navy," in which Mr. Low fenci , ously expressed his wish " that every soldier and sailor might die in his bed." Among the toasts of the evening were, "The Queen," "the Royat Family," " The Lord Mayor," " the' Magistrates of the City of London," responded to by Sir Chapman Marshall ; " the Chairmen," to whose care'ui arrangements, active exertienf, and universal court, sy the success whin tended yesterday's fsstivity, and the enjayment of every individual member, was so greatly attributable. The " Health of Mr. Low " was proposed by Alderman Humphery ; " the Sheriffs," "the Visitors," "the Ladies," and other toasts followed, wound up by that of " The they of London, and prosperity to the trade thereof." As the barge passed Richmond on its return numbers of persons congregated on the banks of the Thames to admire the attractive and unusual scene which it pre 5. med. Through the open windows of the saloon might be seen tl. e gentlemen discussing their dessert and their speeches, while on the deck, under the awning, groups of elegantly dressed ladies were gaily " tripping it on the light fantastic toe," more gaily, perhaps, than if so en gaged on terra firma. Among the songs with which some excellent vocalists enlivened the festival, the most appropriate commemorated the rising of " Old Father Thames," the seetie of this singularly successful and pleasure giving entertainment. MISS BINFIEI.D WILLIAMn'S SOIREE MUSICALE.— Miss Binfield Williams, whose masterly performance on the pianoforte makes us regret not oftener hearing her in public, gave a musical treat to a crowded and fashionable auditory last evening, at the new Beethoven Rooms, Queen Anne street. One of Osborne and De Beriot's concertante duetts was most charmingly rendered by the fair beneficiare and Herr Molique, and Beethoven's Trio op. 70 was performed as effectively as the most ardent admirer of that composer could desire by Miss Williams, Herr Molique, and M. Rousselot. Miss Bassano sang "Ah ! quel giorno" most brilliantly, and also elicited great applause in a pretty little ballad of Charles Saloman's. Mr. Harries Wilson sang his composition of Schiller's celebrated song of " The Diver" in a way that bids fair for his becoming at no distant day ex ceedingly popular in this species of musical monologue opera, and exhibited, by his manner of accompanying him self on the piano, a thorough knowledge of all the resources of the instrument. We should like to see such songs as " The Diver" introduced into our private drawing-rooms in the place of many of the milk-and-waterish, question-asking, reply-giving ballads that have made their way thither of late. M. Henri Drayton was announced to appear, but from some unexplained cause did not do so. The system, which is very prevalent just now with some artistes, of allowing their names to be put down, and then not coming forward, is a most unfair proceeding to the patrons. and ungenerous to the givers of concerts. Mr. Charles Salom7 r ' most ONedas abl3' conducted during the evening, which w e h ope sa tisfactory to the fair provider of the entertainment as it, did to all who were present. THE NEW LORD CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE COMMON PLEAS.—The late Attorney-General, Sir John Jervis, Knight, M.P., who, in consequence of the elevation of Sir Thomas Wilde, has been appointed to succeed him as judge in the office of Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. will be sworn in as Chief Justice, singularly enough, befoie the same judge on Monday next.

From that period up to 1814 her metrori! tan engagements were almost wholly confined to Pra l l o ; lane and Covent-garden. Till within the last roue two she has been chiefly found at the Be l° y Tteatre, where most of her best triumphs in c ome d of have been achieved, and where the genial versatility _.„ her talents has had the most frequent and most interseill'e lug development. The insult that she experienced at ire hands of Mr. Anderson, drove her to the little tbee•s in the Strand, where she has gone through 5 her moat celebrated parts, by way of prelude to the far e well of last night. The farewell benefit took Pl ae t s► - Old Drury, and the house was crammed to suffocet'-i at the old prices.
