tion to frame any code by which all the relations between the See of Rome and the Crown of this country may be re gulated ; but this I say, that if that spirit which you have seen lately be not checked—that if it be not checked by the great display of Protestant and national feeling that has been shown in this country—that if it be not checked by the simple and mild enactments of Parliament—if further ag gressions should take place—if it be attempted, for instance, to deprive the people of Ireland altogether of the benefits of mixed education—(Hear, hear)—if it be attempted to deprive Parliament of its power in this respect, and if those who serve the Crown are to be deterred by menaces with reference to their religious consolations if they attempt to carry out the system of mixed education which the Roman Catholics themselves asked for but a few years ago—then, I do not deny that in such a case other measures may be necessary.—(Hear, hear.) And so likewise of similar aggressions. I differ alto gether from my Right Hon. Friend when he says that this matter of education is one on which the Roman Catholic clergy may proceed unchecked to any extremity they may choose. I don't think that you would be right or that you would be justified, having declared that you meant national education in Ireland to proceed, in allowing spiritual wea pons to be employed for temporal purposes in such a manner es to prevent the youth and children of Ireland from ac quiring secular knowledge, because the Roman Catholic bishops chose to call it a part of spiritual instruction. — (Hear.) I remember speaking with a very excellent and mild bishop of the Roman Catholic Church who undertook the superintendence of the Roman Catholics of London not many years ago. Speaking to him on the subject of granting aid from the Committee of Council to Roman Catholic schools, I said, "We shall leave your religious instruction entirely unfettered • we shan't inquire what it is, or how it is given." His an swer was, "No doubt you intend to do so; but I don't believe you know the extent to which we carry that term religious instruction;' history, for example, the whole of civil history, we comprehend under the term of religious in straction ;' and we should not be satisfied with any part of the political or civil history of England being taught other wise than under the superintendence of the clergy of our own Church."—(A laugh.) There was nothing arrogant or pre tending about that excellent man. This was merely a state ment of what the opinions and doctrines of his Church were, —(Hear, hear) But I must say, if that doctrine were car ried to any extent, that with regard to civil matters, and to matters of physical science, nothing could be taught to the youth of Ireland except under the superintendence of the clergy, that nothing could be more for the benefit of the Roman Catholics themselves than that the State should step in and say that it would not permit any such a system to prevail. In this respect, as in all others, I believe that if what Mr. Grattan predicted should in time fail, this Bill would be no such great bar and security against such evils, and that the whole question is not between Pro testants and Roman Catholics, but it is a question in one re spect between the Crown and the people of this country and the Sae of Rome, but in another respect, it is a question as regards the Roman Catholic laity, and an attempt to impose upon it the favourite ultramontaine doctrine of Rome.— (Hear, hear.) Now, I have observed that Gentlemen who have opposed this Bill upon the ground that no legislation whatever is required have entirely failed in making this dis tinction, t 1 ough it must be obvious and striking to every one who has read any part of the history of Europe or of re ligious contests. My Right Hon. Friend referred to Bossuet and other high authorities; and many of those high Roman Catholic authorities of modern times, like our ancestors, while they were men of strict and undoubted Roman Catholic faith, were at the same time most spirited, most in dependent, most able, and most constant enemies of the usurpation of the Court of Rome. Yet I conceive that the Protestants who now speak upon this subject, do not take the assertions of such men as Bossuet, or Pascal, but they take all the assertions that came from the See of Rome, which in former days, and down even to the present day, have been'scouted by all the most able and most learned of the Roman Catholics. They take all these, I say, as the assertions of Roman Catholic doctrine, of Roman Catholic faith, and of ecclesiastical discipline. I think when we corns, as I am afraid we must come, to discuss these mat ters a good deal further, that this distinction cannot fail to be made; and however it may have been obliterated for the time I do feel confident that having passed the Act of 1829 we shall see that the spirit of the laity will revolt against these pretensions.—(Hear.) Sir, I have been always of opinion that it was not only for the benefit of the Roman Catholics, but also for the security of the State, that the concessions made in 18' , .9 should be enacted by an Act of Parliament ; but I not only thought that, but that they should be carried out in spirit and in reality. For that purpose I thought that the Roman Catholic people of Ireland should have a large franchise allowed them, so that it should be clear that they should have the power of choosing their own representatives, and not at the dictation of their Protestant landlords. I thought it necessary, like wise, in order to carry out the spirit of that Act, that Ro man Catholics should be chosen and named to civil offices tence either of omission or of addition, or defect either of our intention, or any other whatsoever ; but shallialways be valid and in force, and shall take effect in all particulars, aed be inviolably observed ; all general or special enactments, not withstanding, whether apostolic, or issued in synodal, pro vincial, and universal councils; notwithstanding also all rights and privileges of the ancient sees of England." —( Hear, hear.) Now the former declaration is upon Dr. "Wiseman's authority alone, but no doubt authorised by the See of Rome, and that is a declaration that our Protestant archbishops and bishops do not exist.—( Hear.) This re script is a substitution of the Archbishop of Westminster, of the Bishop of klouthwark and others, for the Bishops of the Protestant Church, who are thus declared to have been null and void and to be entirely abrogated and annulled. — (Hear, hear.) Now, I ask, does this fairly come within the s cope of a foreign Sovereign ? My Right Hon. Friend an swered the question at once, as if he had been taught by Dr. Wiseman himself—(A laugh)—as if he had been brought up at the feet of his Eminence. That the Pope has no autho rity as a spiritual function for the appointment of all bishops at all times is, I think, proved by various works, but by no one more clearly than by Dr. Twiss, in his book on this sub} ect, full of learning, and stated with great temper. I think nothing is more clearly proved than this, that the cir cumscription of dioceses must be consented to by the sove reign authority, and that the appointment of bishops is not spiritual but temporal. The consecration of bishops Dr. Twiss fairly considers a spiritual matter; but that bishops can be appointed without the consent of the sovereign authority, and an express agreement that the Pope or some other autho rity shall have the power to appoint them, is what I think ,elf good authorities on thin subject would deny, and they %mild deny it in common with the public law of Europe, and in common with the practice of every country in Europe. —(Hear.) Let any man who goes to Protestant countries — let him refer to Prussia. Holland, or Saxony, which, though it has a Catholic King, has a Protestant people, and he will find in every one of them that the Royal authority would be used against such an appointment, against any such a circumscription of dioceses, and that it would not be per mitted. If that is the case, I ask you to look at the nature of'this aggression. It is, as it struck me at the very commencement, an assumption of power over the realm of England at variance with the supremacy of the Crown, at variance with the rights of its clergy, at variance with and in contradiction of the independence of the nation. Some Hon. Gentlemen say, let us have a resolution ; let it be in as stringent terms as you please, deciding that there is no right to assume such power, and that the Queen retains all her temporal authority and spiritual supremacy as it is by law established. That might be done, but I do not know that it would be wise of Parliament to come to resolutions which, when they were produced in a court of justice, when a Roman Catholic clergyman appeared there as Archbishop of Westminster, and another Roman Catholic clergyman as Bishop of Birmingham, might be decided by the presiding judge to be of no value in law—to be utterly worthless, and to be a declaration which he, sitting on the bench of justice, could pay no attention to. I cannot advise the House to take a course by which I think the dignity of Parliament would be compromised.—( Hear, hear.) My Right Hon. Friend who last spoke goes to the other extreme. He say.," If regality is attacked you have the case of Lalor, in which regality was asserted. Why does not the Attorney-General proceed according to the case of Lalor?" My Right Hen. Friend hardly stated the case against Lalor as it actually occurred. He says that Lalor, having attempted to encroach upon the temporal privileges of the Crown, was, far that attempt, indicted and convicted. After that statement I must claim the indulgence of the Howse while I state what was actually the case against Lalor. The indictment was framed in the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland, and it charged Lalor that he bad received a bull from the Court of Rome. giving him authority, as vicar-general, prejudicial to the King's autho rity within the realm, and that, under pretext of such vicar-generalship, he had exercised, by appointments to benefices, in matrimonial causes, dispensations, and other matters, jurisdiction appertaining to the episcopal office to the detriment of the authority, dignity, and regality of the Crown. On this indictment Lalor, after a consultation of half an hour on the part of the jury, was found guilty, and I believe sentenced. He was proceeded against under an Act of Richard 11. He was proceeded against, in point of fact, for having usurped episcopal jurisdiction ; not for doing any thing by direct means against the authority or temporal power or legality of the Crown, but for exercising episcopal jurisdiction, and the right appertaining to and vested in the Cr .wu. By that statute of tiichard 11., after the enumera tiureof the offences comprehended under the usurpation of the episcopal jurisdiction, it was declared that all persons committing these offences should be put out of the King's proten ion, should forfeit to the King their lands, tenements, g oods, and chattels, and be imprisoned during the pleasure of the Crown. Now, it appears to me that very possibly sortie of these new bishops thus appointed by the Pope may have 'one those very things which Lalor was found guilty of having done ; that in causes matrimonial, appoint ments to benefices, and various other matters which appertain to the episcopal jurisdiction, they have used the powers for which bishops are or dained. Now, I conceive that it would have been a hard course on our parts, with such penalties before us—as suming we had got evidence—to have proceeded against Dr. Wiseman, and have endeavoured to convict him under that statute of Richard.—(Hear, hear.) Had we done so, what would, indeed, have become of that religious liberty in which we are charged with being wanting? Had we acted upon that statute, by which Dr. Wiseman would have been de prived of his goods and chattels and have been imprisoned during the pleasure of the Crown—would there not have been an outcry that we were harshly resuscitating for a par ticular purpose ancient statutes, which, nut having been used for two centuries, might be considered obsolete, and would not the reproach as to the infringement of religious liberty have been sent forth with ten times more vehemence than it has been already?— (Hear.) We find that those Gentlemen who have spoken on this subject, to the effect that some pub lic measures ought to have been taken, very much divided in opinion as to what ought to have been done, have suggested various courses which they conceive would have been better than the - present Bill. Without going into all their suggestions, let me submit one observation to the Howse. Here is a point cn which there is hardly any dif ference of opinion, that this Papal aggression itself is arro gant in the extreme.—(Hear, hear.) There has been no al ternative proposed to the course that we propose on which there has been anything like a general agreement, or which has been at all made out to have a clear and practical bear ing upon the case in hand. The course proposed by Lord Stanley was that there should be a resolution, but likewise that we should have an inquity with reference to future le gislation; and the Noble Lord manifests his belief that we are not at present prepared for legislation on this seject, by declaring that he thought a year, or perhaps two years, might elapse before that legislation could be proceeded with. (Hear, hear.) Now, although I might have preferred my own course, yet had that other course been proposed by Lord Stanley, as bead of the Government, I might have been ready to aiopt it in deference to the authority of the Govern ment. I now put it to the House; you have one course be fore you— a course proposed by the Government—and there i s n o other clear, definite course proposed as an alternative to that course. Now is it not better, if you mean to do anything at all against this aggression, to agree to the course proposed by the Government—even though that course be not the best possible—rather than reject it in the vague hope that some other course may at some future period be proposed, to which a fuller and more general assent may be accorded. — ( Hear, hear.) It has been said, among other matters, that what is now proposed falls far short of that which I indi cated before Parliament met, and especially in that letter of mine which has often been referred to—my letter to the Bishop of Durham.—(Hear.) Sir, I am ready to abide by all the sentiments contained in that letter.—(lronical cries of " Hear, hear," and much counter cheering.) The letter has been so often referred to by others, that I may be permitted to refer to it myself.—(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) The re presentations which have been made of that letter have been greatly erroneous; it has been represented that in that letter I did not look to public opinion for a cure of the evil com plained of, but to some stringent law ou the subject of this p4p Al aggression. Now, what I said in the letter was this . ,‘t• , et describing the character of the aggression, I pro for which they were capable as freely as Protestants; and I am persuaded that those things, under the present Adminis tration, have been fully carried out.—( Hear, hear.) We passed last year an Act with respect to the franchise, and from the time that I came into office, so far as my patronage has been concerned, I have been. always anxious that Roman Catholics should have a fair share of that to which their abilities entitled them.—(Hear, hear.) Now, I think that a great security, but it is upon this conditions that those Roman Catholics are as free to act according to their own opinion as Protestants would be in similar circumstances. —(Hear, hear.) And if you find that Roman Catholics have bees, like Sir Michael O'Loughlin, the Master of the Rolls, and Sir Thomas Redington, loyal 'to the Crown and anxious to do justice equally between all classes of her Majesty's subjects, there can be no doubt but that rule of law should prevail; but if you find, on the contrary, that these Papal maxims have gained supremacy in Ireland, and that Roman Catholics in office have been threatened by the priests if they ;did their duty fairly, it would oblige those Roman Catholics to leave the service of the Crown, and to do that which would come to be a practi cal denial of that which the Act of 1829 gave them. (Hear, hear.) My Right Hon. Friend has a very simple remedy for that. He says if a Roman Catholic be threatened with a spiritual sentence, such as the refusal of the sacrament, he has only to leave the Roman Catholic community.—(A laugh.) But it is very possible that his conscience may not allow him to make that change; he may feel that the priest exercises an oppression upon him, as did that unfortunate man Count Santa Rosa, at Turin; but his faith in his reli gion might yet be totally unshaken; and if th'it be the case, I say it is for the benefit of the Roman Catholics themselves that you should assert the spiritual independence of this country and should not encourage these assumptions of power on the part of the Court of Rome.—( Hear, hear.) My Right Honourable Friend at the conclusion of his speech referred to men of eminence, some of whom were departed and some of whom were still alive, who had fought manfully and successfully in favour of Roman Catholic inde pendence. I was an humble follower of those men, and though not taking part in the debates upon that subject in this House, I constantly fought that battle in the country, and gave my votes upon the same side. Sir, I regret not a single vote that I then gave. I rejoice that I was in any way instrumental in procuring religious liberty ; but if I experience now that you have not taken those securities which Mr. Grattan said you might take ; if I feel some doubt—some suspicion— some apprehension—of the future proceedings of the Court of Rome, I sin not without the au thority of many friends of freedom who expressed similar fears and similar apprehensions. Ido not know that I need be ashamed of being somewhat more liberal than Milton and than Locke.— ( Hear, hear.) I do not know that I need be ashamed of having somewhat of the tem per which belonged to Hampden and to Pym and to all those great men who asserted the liberties of the country in this House against the tyranny of Charles I. I do not know that I need be ashamed of feeling somewhat of those doubts and apprehensions which influenced the calm and sober judgment of Lord Somers. Those men were the friends of liberty, many of them writers in favour of liberty of conscience and of toleration far beyond the opinions of their age; but they felt, however, that the Roman Catholic faith might be held as well as any other faith, conscientiously and consistently with the enjoyment of power; still that there was something in the character of the See of Rome which made every friend of liberty jealous of its encroach ments aird fearful of the establishment of its power.—(Hear, hear.) Sir, whatever I may have felt with regard to the particular measures that might be adopted, I have always maintained an opposition to the Roman Catholic supremacy. I remain still of that mind ; and when I see that there are so few of the Roman Catholic body who feel that this aggression, made without the consent of the Crown and against the will of the nation, is an aggression upon the supremacy of the Crown and the independence of the people, my apprehensions are not diminished, but increased by such a temper. 'While I remain a friend to religious liberty, as I trust I ever have been (as the Roman Catholics, at least, ought to admit, frequent as have b een th e re b u ff s that I hav e met with in the course of popular elections because I have said I was for the Roman Catholics)—anxious as I have been, and ever shall be, for religious liberty, I will not con found that cause with the cause of Papal encroachment.— (Cheers.) I believe that the liberties of England and the liberties of Europe will be best promoted by its resistance.— (General cheers. ) The debate was then adjourned until this day (Friday). The Consolidated Fund (8,C00,0001) Bill was read a second time ; and The House adjourned at One o'clock. .con if it shall appear that the Ministers and servants isope in this country have not transgressed the law, I snsuaded that we are strong enough to repel any out tacks, The liberty of Protestantism has been en n :England too long to allow of any successful attemi t ose a foreign yoke upon our minds and consciences. c•grt prince or potentate will be permitted to fasten his r upon a nation which has so long and so nobly vindi s• trs rights to freedom of opinion civil, pslitical, and se lls:sous " Now, this was a clear appeal not to the powers of the law, either as they exist now, or as they might be enacted to the purpose, but to that liberty of opinion, civil and reli gious, which this country has long enjoyed, and which I con siSersd to be the great antidote against the attempt to fa:ten upon our consciences the yoke to which they had so long been s'rangers.— (Cheers.) With regard to any measures to be taken in the way of enactment, I think, Hon. Gentl men, when I have read the words I used, will allow that they were sufficiently guarded :—" Upon this subject, then, I will say that the present state of the law shall be carefully examined, and the propriety of adopting any proceedings with reference to the recent assumption of power deliberately considered." It does not even say that any proceedings at all were to be taken ; it merely says that the propriety of taking any pro ceedings should be deliberately considered.—(Hear, hear.) An • I say, therefore, that if at the meeting of Parliament the Government had declared that they did not think it ne cesnry to introduce a Bill or to institute any preceedings whether such a course would have been wise or unwise, ill-!:liable or not, at all events it would have been com pisteiy consistent with the assertion in that letter—(Hear, hear)—and yet it has been represented that this measure fads far short of the intimations held out by me be fore the meeting of Parliament.— (Hear, hear.) I say still that our main defence, our main security, consists in that liberty of discussion, in that liberty of thought, in than political freedom which we have so long enjoyed, and which we will maintain—(Cheers)—but it does not follow from this that it may not be necessary to have some legisla tive assertion of the supremacy of the Crown and the freedom of the ss knear.) It has always appeared to me, from the very first, that if any measure was to be proposed, it should be one of the mildest form, and that it would be far better to fall somewhat short of what the occasion might seem to justify , tha n to exceed, in any degree, the absolnfe necessity of the case ; alita after all I have heard—after the proposal of sending have been to Civita Vecchia, and various other proposalsthat An c, made—l am still of the same hear.) one assertion, in particular, ti h:ch has been much e to u pon, I wish to call the assertion of the ffous is first a Iptuyhrseiers third, represent containstse o i f tt a h c aa s t t . t:/hat Some of the Gentlemen opposed toth°B one of persecution, and say that the within itself the enactme nts of the second and the omission of these two makes no essential diffegreenntcleernine:hoef Bill. Without entering into the question fo s first su n bj w ec h t to when in Committee we shall hear enough rosin o the long robe, I will put this to the liousei f this clause in itself is so very persecuting how comes it for 21 years the Roman Catholics of Ireland have been the law, without maaing scarce a murmur against it; that, in point of fact, the only decided expression of opinion re specting it was that in 1830, of the Roman Catholic arch bishops and bishops, which expression was cne of acquies cence 2—(Hear, hear.) What this clause says is simply that, our existing sees and dioceses shall be protected from aggression, and that Roman Catholic clergymen shall not be allowed to assume the title from any place or district in the United Kingdom. For 21 years the Roman Catholic pre- Istes and laity have been suffering under the dreadful perse cution which is discovered lurking under the clause, and nevsr ones in the whole time have been aware of their sill- We have heard of the gentleman who spoke prose all his life and didn't know it; but only conceive a whole people suffering all the marty r d ombouti of persecution, and not k now i ng anything a This shows that the Bill at all. events, is not ver y oppressive. That ques ti ons may arias with regard to the execution of this Bill if it become law in England I cannot well doubt. I b e li eve th a t th a t i s very likely to be the case, but my belief is that when the Roman Catholics see that Parliament has agreed to this en s' meat they wall bow to the authority of Parlia men t an d sot attempt the assumption of those titles.—(Hear, L ess .) But,,Sir, other questions may aris e, and I will not cencssl from the Rouse any more than I have from myself, that you may not by this Bill, meet every danger that we may have to mom*, Non I hate it not iA coatenapla• PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS.

BILLINGSGATE MARKET. The great increase of business at the above market having rendered an enlargement necessary, and the altered nature of the trade occasioned by the transit by rail instead of water rendering the old Billingsgate dock comparatively useless, the corporation of London determined to enclose and appropriate that spot to the extension, and accordingly during the past summer the foundation stone was laid of a building, which is to be in the Italian style of architecture, from the design of Mr. Bunning , the City architect. The works have latterly, like the new gaol at Holloway, been transferred from the original contractor to Mr. Jay, the builder, under whom they have rapidly progressed. A river wall of great strength formed of Hayter granite, of the length of 165 feet, has been raised to the height i.f about three; feet above the level of the Custom-house espla nade, upon which is being carried up the beautiful super structure of the river front (already advanced to the height of one story), and which when complete, will display in the csepneterteor of fish,anobleCampanile tower, 80 feet high, and at either sideOrwaing, to b colonnade, e each terminating with a handsome building used and d oyster st offices er will be of r e d m e f t o e r r s t . h e The erk whole o t hlee of this market, piinle brick, with elegant gran it e an d P or tl an d stone dressing s , A portion of the Rats over the colonnades and part of the tower will be laid aide e h Claridge's Asphalte of Seyssel, and the fronts on e4chpau ne z , f the tower will exhibit stone pedes talspti:erced in elegant patterns. and cast iron in which faucbrear will comprise a spacious The arrangement s i n covered with a protecting roof of paved area for the salesmen, mereus lights of plate glass are Including corregated iron, space is appropriated for introduced, and beneath a similar space the sale of shell-fish, which is to we sitahmecranes attaarlci ventilated by means of a Pump out the this area the w st a e s a t net vans ; beneath whole depth front the river wall is about 20 0 s y y e l e e t o t t 9 Thames street, l w o f h ty e , r where rangeis to be of erected warehouses,i n t h raising the fish which arrive by the several arched colonnades , w hich form the a pproach to t a b ' : market.

The SPEAKER decided that Mr. DRUMMOND, having used no expression personally offensive to a Member or disrespectful to the House, was not out of order ; hut be, at the same time, expressed a hope that Members, in discussing a question of so much delicacy, calculated to produce so much excitement, would abstain from all ex pressions that might cause irritation. A few conciliatory words from Mr. DRUMMOND re stored the House to some degree of calmness, and he con cluded his speech by declaring that the Bill was unjust and uncalled for towards Ireland, and that a law must be passed to prohibit the residence of Cardinals in Ire land, to avoid everything done under the canon law, and to extend the Mortmsin Act for the protection of dying Will be performed CHARLES KING.

Sir JAMES GRAHAM strongly condemned the language which had been used by Mr. DRUMMOND. He admitted that the conduct of the POPE and of Cardinal WISEMAN had been arrogant and offensive, but be considered the present measure uncalled for, more especially as it was a penal enactment, and a reversal of our former policy. The Bill, moreover, was a " botch," and he was not surprised at it; such men as Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Sir GEORGE Gnmr,and Sir JOHN Roldu.Ly could never be- come adepts at framing penal enactments. overcast.

The returns from the following places indicate the state of he wind and weather on Wednesday morning at nine Lord JOHN RIHISELI. defended the Bill, as necessary fur the preservation of liberty from the encroachments of the See of Rome, which, ever since 1815 had been striving after aggrandisement, and which had now mado common cause with the obscurantists and absolutists of Europe, against the liberties of mankind. He defended his celebrated Durham letter, and said that the milder the measure was which could be adopted to repel the aggression the better; but that if further aggression should take place, other measures might become necessary. He did not repent of any single vote he bad ever given in favour of the civil and religious ;equality of our Roman Catholic fellow subjects, and it was to secure their independence that he was opposed to the encroachments of the See of Rome. The debate was then adjourned on the motion of Mr. GRATTAN; and the House rose at One o'clock. The debate on the Papal aggression was resumed last evening, and in the early portion of it a scene took place, which at one time bid fair to bring the discussion to an abrupt termination, a scene rather resembling those disgraceful riots which the repre sentatives of the parti-pretre are wont to get up in the French Legislative Assembly, than the usually decent and orderly proceedings of a British House of Commons. Mr, HENRY DRUMMOND, the eccentric Member for Surrey, rose to address the House about nine o'clock, and as might have been expected spoke his mind somewhat plainly ; the Ultramontane Members thereupon commenced a regular and organized system of interruption, uttering such discordant sounds and shrieks and roars, as are the usual preludes to brandishing a shillelagb; thereupon Mr. DRUMMOND, naturally irritated, gave utterance to certain ex pressions regarding nunneries and modern miracles, which were certainly in the worst possible taste, on which the Ultraniontanists rose, and shouted, and shrieked, and some of them rushed at the Hon. Member for Surrey, and threatened him with per sonal violence. A more outrageous scene of tumult or one more disgraceful to all concerned in it was never exhibited within the walls of any public as sembly. We trust that the scene of last evening will operate as a lesson to the U ltramontane , Members not again, as some of them did the other day at the Romish meeting, to set the example of uttering foul abuse. Gentlemen who are so particularly this-skinned the mselves should be more guarded in the language they use with regard to others. The great speeches of the night were those of Sir JAMES GRAHAM and of Lord JOHN RUSSELL. The Right Hon. Baronet admits that the conduct of the POPE and of the Cardinal has been arrogant and needlessly offensive; that it was hard for this great Protestant community to pass it by in silence and contempt, and that the Government were bound in duty to assert the great Pro testant principles fixed at the Reformation, confirmed at the Revolution and by the Act of Settlement, and ratified by the solemn compacts at the union of Scotland to England, and of Ireland to Great Bri ght Hon. Baronet calls upon this tain ;and yet the Right great country to submit to this offensive arrogance, and upon the Government to neglect their plain duty ir th co s u c n ot t l r a y n , d a a n n d d t w o i v th iol l a r t e e la t n h d e E t e s: e a d n i d a t o o c to om th p e ac Q t u e : at the unions, by abstaini ng from doing anything to repel this aggression; aid to excuse the adoption of such a scandalous and cowardly course of proceeding he contents himself with conjuring up the bug bear of a civil war in Ireland. Now, Sir JAMES GRAHAM may set his heart at rest upon this subject ; there will be no civil war, and our reason for giving bim this assurance is, just because the outbreak of a civil war is threatened. Men who intend to rebel never give notice of their intention beforehand. It was the quiet, mild-spoken FROST who attempted a Chartist outbreak, not the mush-threatening orators of the Convention ; besides, if we are to yield to threats of civil war, we shall be bullied by the Ultraniontanists out of all our de fences, and at last have to fight for our bare lives. Principiis obsta; if a stand is to be made it must be made at once, at whatever cost, and therefore are we rejoiced at the bold and manly speech of Lord JOHN RUSSELL. He distinctly avowed his continued adhesion to the principles laid down in the Durham letter, and declared that further aggressions should be met by further mea sures ; his allusion to the admirable speech of Sir ROBERT PEEL, whose personal experience in Switzer land had taught him what Ultramontanism really is, was in excellent taste, and his vindication of himself r from the charge of illiberality was a noble specimen of manly eloquence. " If I feel some doubt," said the Noble Lord, " if I feel some doubt—some suspicion—some apprehensien— of the future proceedings of the Court of Rome, I am not without the authority of many friends of freed?ns who expressed similar fears and similar apprnhensions. I do not know that I need be ashamed of being somewhat more liberal than Milton and than Locke. I do not know that I need be ashamed of having somewhat of the temper which belonged to Hampden and to PYtn and to all those great men who asserted the liberties of the country in this Hou se a g ainst the tyranny of Charles I. Ido not know that I need be ashamed of feeling somewhat of those doubts and apprehensions which influenced the calm and sober judgment of Lord Somers. Those men were the friends of liberty, many of them writers in favour of liberty of conscience and of toleration far beyond the opinions of their age; but they felt, however, that although the Rom an Catholic faith might be held as well as any other faith, co nscientiously and c ons i s t e ntly with the enjoyment of power, still that th ere was something in the character of the,See of Rome which made every friend of liberty , jealous of its encroachments and fearful of the establish ment of its power." These are words worthy of a RUSSELL, and will find a response in the breast of every friend of liberty in every part of the world. Let the Noble Lord act up to them—let him at once dismiss from his Cabinet those timid, or worse than timid colleagues who fetter bis free will ; let him bring forward a bold and comprehensive measure for the de fence of our Protestant liberties against Papal tyranny, and if upon such a measure be appeals to the country, he will have such a majority to back him as Minister has never bad of late years, and he will be enabled to found one of the strongest Governments that England his ever known. o'clock CORK —Wind - S.W., strong breeze—rain.

It has been recorded by those who have explored the Transpontane regions that no adequate concep tion can be entertained of the uproariousness of a Victoria Theatre audience on a Boxing-night by any person not actually present, however vivid may be his imagination. Unable as we are to substantiate the accuracy of this assertion from personal observa tion, we would nevertheless wager, with a feeling of complete security, that neither that, nor any other congregation of stentorian bellowers, could by possi bility bear away the palm of tumult from the Eastern Couoties Railway sharebolder s , at their meeting on the 18th instant. Had not that meeting been held in an upper apartment instead of one nearer to the ground, all Bishopsgate• street would have flocked around the portals of the London Tavern to ascer tain what fearful orgies were being enacted by a body of gentlemen who had met ostensibly for the purpose of discussing matters involving interests to the amount of several millions. Shouts, yells, hurrahs, hisses, hootings, and denunciations, issuing from hundreds of unwearied throats, conspired to produce a din which will be long remembered with a shudder by some at least of those who had the mishap to be of the auditory on that occasion. It is, however, to be hoped that, for the sake of decency and common sense, no scenes of a similar nature will be re enacted on any future day, and that the constituency of so important a concern will not continue obsti nately blind to the pernicious consequence's which must result from demeanour so disgraceful both to their own respectability and to the true interests of the company, which cannot fail to be seriously damaged by having public feeling in this great com mercial metropolis outraged by such unparalleled ebullitions of lamentable indecorum. A new page has now been opened in the annals of this railway. In accordance with the apophthegm ' " on revient toujours a ses premiers amours," the talented Member for Maldon has been once more borne into office amid the frantic enthusiasm of his supporters. The Waddington dynasty is restored, and the chosen favourite was yesterday unanimously elected by the Board of Directors as their chairman. Two directors of opposite policy have ere this sent in their resignations, and their places will be, doubtless, supplied by participators in the views of the present administration. The ascendancy of the party has been demonstrated, not merely by the majority of suffrages obtained by the Chief himself; but by the re-election of the two directors whose term of office had ex pired, and who were declared adherents of the new phase of policy. Of these gentlemen, moreover, one carried great weight, from the very large pecuniary interest which he has in the concern, as well as from his straightforwardness and judgment ; and the other made assurance doubly sure by an ad captandum oration of startling energy, on Tuesday last. Mr. WADDINGTON now fills an arduous and most prominent position in the railway world. The acts of the new Board, whether for good or for evil, will all be laid . at his door. Should he be unable, within the next six months, to effect a pal pable saving in the expenditure—which may be ac complished, not by a cheese-paring economy, but by a judicious examination into the details of the loco motive establishment, and a close but not illiberal at tention to the features of a sound and safe reductions where it can be carried into effect without any dan gerous paring to the quick; and should he fail in producing an improvement in the peculiar department of his adoption, the traffic, he must make up his mind to weather the re-awakened tempestuousness of the shareholders as best he may. It will then be " con fusion worse confounded." A decent dividend will likewise be longingly awaited, the more so after the denial of that soothing distribution at the last half yearly meeting ; and the days are gone for ever when there can be any tampering with traffic aecounts, squaring the expenses to suit the dividend, and not the dividend to suit the expenses. But if Mr. WADDINGTON shall be found to devote his energies and acknowledged abilities to ensure, as head of the Executive, a spirit of unanimity and concord in its councils, whereby the development of the resources of the line shall be fostered, the dangers of competi tion amicably arranged, its revenues enhanced, and the condition of a vast undertaking, hitherto sadly mismanaged, materially exalted, then let all by gones be bygones, and all heartburnings be consigned to oblivious repose in the " tomb of all the Capulets." Those who were his most active opponents should, without going to the extreme of reposing a blind and implicit confidence in his cabinet, tender it a gene ral and generous support, bearing in mind, that al though the absence of legitimate control may inspire a Directory with a ruinous self-sufficiency, it is ut terly impossible that any administrative body can be conducted creditably or profitably, either as regards itself or those whose interests it ought to shield and superintend with a jealous affection, if it be obnoxious on every occasion to suspicion, contumely, or factions opposition.

The Lords sat for a short time last evening, but transacted no business of importance. In the House of Commons, _ _ Lord Mellor; withdrew his motion for an address on the subject of passports, in consequence of receiving an assurance from Lord PALMERSTON that he would make arrangements to lessen the expense of obtaining pass ports, and to give greater facilities for procuring them. The debate on the Eeclegalities' Titles Assumption B was resumed by Mr. NEWDEGATE, who contended that it was con trary to the Constitution for the Temporarofficer of a foreign sovereign, and such was Cardinal WISEMAN, to be permitted to reside in this country. He considered the Bill did not go far enough, but would, nevertheless, give it his support. Mr. STUART KNOX contradicted the assertion of Mr. REYNOLDS, that the Protestants of Ulster were indif ferent to this matter. Dr. POWER opposed the Bill, because it was a measure of persecution. Mr. H. DRUMMOND said the question was nothing less than this—whether Roman Catholics should remain a tolerated sect under the spiritual dominion of the QUEEN, or whether the Clazzli should be a licensed berttic under THE SHARE MARKETS BRITZSII RAILWAYS.

In the Amsterdam market on the 17th inst. Dutch Stock was in request, and closed at 57. Spanish Five per COM were in great demand. The emigration season is in full play. A. party this subject suggests, that there "could either be a free or an assisted system of emigration. The lat er is that which we advocate--Government to provide either half or two thirds the amount of passage-money, the emigramts to pro. cure the rest; care to be taken that as equal a proportion (1 writing on the sexes be maintained as possible; single persons to fee re ceive only half assistance, married couples two-thirds: would also suggest the foundation of emigration associations throughout England, on the mutual benefit Os te. For instance, one hundred persons to club toge ther, each paying sixpence per week. This et If the the end of a year would amount to 130 this would . Government pursued the half-credit syste m, enable about thirty persons out of thl hundre d to emigrate the first year. Supposing Government advanced two-thirds, it would enable upwards of forty to enligr_nf : °' The selection of the emigrants might either be made Y d lottery, by rotation, or any other plan mutuallly agrr upon by the members of such associations. Th. alteration in the price of land 'n Australia would at once of there a large number of small capitalists, men having frol n . 5( ; 1 1 ,.. t i; 1,0001., and who are at a loss to know how to invest money to advantage in this land of competition." dull In the English Stock Market business has been very again, and prie , ! , are not quite so firm.
