He wished to ask the Hon. Member for Bucks whether he could not take the discussion upon another stage of the income-tax, so that the second reading of it might be proceeded with on Monday? Mr. DISRAELI said, from the representation that . had been made to him he apprehended it would be much more convenient not to have the second reading of the income-tax on Monday. Lord J. RUSSELL said he would, in that case, take the window duties and house-tax on Monday; then the soles and timber duties) and, when these were disposed a f , h e wQQ I4I propose to go into a Committee of Supply en Monday. The House then resumed; the Chairman reported progress and obtained leave to sit again on Monday. The other business on the paper having been disposed of, the House adjourned at a Quarter after Two o'clock.

In the House of Lo------rds, last night, the Royal assent was given by Commis s i on Bills. The to several The County Courts Extension Bill was read a third time and passed. Lord BuouGHAis moved the Law of Evidence Bill. The object of reading of the a ect of the measure was to enable plaintiffs and defendants to be themselves exa mined as witnesses in civil cause:. After some observations from the Loa D , r Lord CAMPRELL , and Lord Castivi owr HANCELLOR, 11, the Bill was T read a second tim e, and their Lo rdsh * s adjourned. In the Commons, Lord Joss RUSSELL gave notice that he should move the appointment of a Committee on t h e Kafir war as an amendmeatt to Sir W. MOLESWORTH'it •• moos)); on Tuesday. On the motion for going into Committee on the As sessed Taxes Act, Mr. Dreamt= moved an amendment:—" That in a ny relief to be granted by the remission or adjustment of taxation, due regard ought to be paid to the distressed condition of the owners and occupiers of land." The Hon. Gentleman described the conduct of the CHANCEL- Loa of the EXCHEQUER, in withdrawing the paltry boon A 1";1445.-OkeN„aally offered to the agriculturists , a s un ju s t . '- AS Tsiltlig.

He wished only that the Ministry would during the holidays reconsider their Budget. Mr. LABOUCHERE contended that the modification of the window duty would afford greater relief to the farmer than either the alteration in the income-tax, pro posed by Mr. Hznittzs, or the transference of certain local burdens to the consolidated fund, as proposed by the Hon. Member for Bucks. The true meaning of the motion was a return to protection. Mr. GLADsTortis considered the motion had some con nexion with a return to protection, and he could not, therefore, consent to enter into a discussion of the ques tion of the burdens on land until the question of protec tion should be finally set at rest. With regard to the income-tax, he considered that unless some equitable classification took place-that tax could not be made per manent; and believing that the difficulties which stood in the way of such classification were insuperable, he regretted the largo sacrifice which had been made by exempting houses under the value of 201. a year from the hoase-tax, as he considered that a house-tax might be substituted for an income-tax. Mr. STAFFORD contended that the true meaning of free trade was dear money. Mr. ALCOCE and Mr. SANDARS opposed the amend ment. Lord JOHN MANNERS supported it. Mr. BRIGHT denied that the owners of land had suf fered or were suffering serious distress; and for the dis tress of the farmers the real remedies were, a fair ad justment of rents, improved methods of cultivation, end the abolition of the game-laws. The loss experienced by the farmer from the destruction of his crops by game was greater than all the local burdens. Mr. REYNOLDS supported the amendment to secure a share in the booty of the surplus to the landed interest. He should continue to vote against the Ministry, and those Irish Members who did not so votet would receive novices from their constituents. Free-trade had done no goad for Ireland. The CHANCELLOR of the EICREQUER said the offers he had made would not have been withdrawn if the agriculturists themselves had not declared that the prof ferred boons were of no value. He declared th the condition of the peasantry throughout England had been benefitted by free-trade, and he defied his opponents to show the contrary. Mr. MILES and Mr. ANEWDEGATE supported the amendment, as did Sir ROBERT PEEL, although he at the same time de clared himself a Free-trader. Lord NORREYS opposed the amendment, which was supported by Colonel SIBTHORP. Lord Joan RUSSELL said the resolutions on agricul tural distress were offered under false pretences. In the House the idea of protection was denied, but cut of the House the object of these motions was declared to be a return to protection. He contended that the owners and occupiers of land had shared in the relief afforded by the remission of taxation on articles of consumption Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL passed some strictures upon the speech of kir. REYNOLDS, to which Mr. KEOGH replied. Sir T. D. ACLAND disclaimed any party motive for the vote he designed to give in favour of the amendment. Mr. J. O'CONNELL commented upon the speech of Mr. KEOGH. Mr. GRATTAN supported the amendment. The House divided, when there appeared— For the amendment ... ••• 250 Against it... ... 263 Majority for Ministers ... —l3 The House rose at a Quarter-past Two. The Honourable Gentleman the Member for Buck inghamshire was last night placed in a false position. On the preceding evening he had declared that " be had no wish to propose an amendment to the motion for the repeal of the window-tax, nor was he prepared to oppose that repeal." He even omitted the words "in the first instance" from his amendment in order to prevent the possibility of misconception. But still we find the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stating in the course of the debate that "if the Hon. Member (Mr. DISRAELI) carried his amendment, he (the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER) could not go into Committee, and would not have an opportunity of repealing the window-tax." Now this appears scarcely fair on the part of the Right Honourable Baronet. It was partly at his own suggestion that Mr. DISRAELI selected the motion for going into Committee on the house and window• tax as a fitting opportunity for bringing forward his amendment. It should properly have been proposed after the amendment of the Right Honourable Gentleman the Member for Stamford had been disposed of. It was as a matter of convenience to the Government that Mr. DISRAELI assented that the report on the resolution that " the duties on profits arising from property, professions, trades, and offices, should be further continued for a time to be limited," should be received, on the express under standing that the debate and the division on his motion should be taken on Friday. The Premier expressly stated that such a proceeding would be " a convenient course ;" while the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that "on Friday, the Hon. Gentle man would have a full and f.ir opportunity of moving his amendment on the question that the SPEAKER do leave the chair, and then the Hon. Gentlemnn could, if he wished, move the adoption of his proposition, instead of the house and windo w-tax." It would under such cir cumstances appear to be an act but of common justice and common courtesy to have stated that the effect of the motion would, if successful, have been fatal to the repeal of the window-tax, when the Protectionist leader announced that he did not intend to oppose that repeal, and not to have placed him in the invi dious light, and so far as the success of his proposi tion was concerned, the disadvantageous position of being placed as the maintainer and advocate of that iniquitous impost—the tax on light and air. Another opportunity should have been aforded of fairly test ing the opinions of the House on the questions really at issue between the Government and the Opposi • tion. As it was, however, we can only look upon it in the light of a " discreditable dodge," such as we regret to say the excellent CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER is rather too fond of practising whenever there is a prospect of a few stray votes being cap• tured thereby in favour of his financial crotchets. Notwithstanding this disadvantage, however, the amendment was only rejected by the ominous num ber 13 ! The former motion of Mr. Disneeee had been negatived by 14, and the Premier declared that the smallness of the majority on that occasion was one of the principal causes that induced him to tender the resignation of himself and colleagues to her MAJESTY, and to sacrifice an exceedingly valuable portion of time in the most important part of the session. He, no doubt, then felt that it was " a dangerous and disadvantageous thing for the country that the Government should be liable to defeats, having but a very small majority at any time, and therefore carrying on a kind of lingering existence during a great period of the session ;" and yet, when restored to office through the weakness of his op ponente, rather than any renewed strength on his own part, he declines to listen to the voice of public opinion, or to accede to the reasonable demand of the country by consenting to what has been admitted by men of all parties to be a matter of absolute necessity—an equitable adjuet ment of the income-tax, and the removal of the gross injustice now practised on the payers under Schedules B, D, and E. He still regards the precarious earn ings of industry as being equivalent to dividends on Three per Cent. Consols, or the rents of well-cir cumstanced real estates, and nothing but a decisive defeat, leading to another resignation, will open his eyes to the delusion under which he has laboured, and which has been confirmed by the evil counsels of his incompetent colleague. As to the debate itself, Mr. DISRAELI was, as usual, brilliant, eloquent, and witty. It is almost unnecessary to say that he made the most of his case, and that he exposed with cutting severity the incon sistencies and backsliding& of his opponents. Indeed an opportunity was afforded which could not be over looked, and which must have told with powerful effect, even in far less skilful hands. The admission of agricultural distress contained in the Speech from the Throne, deliberately and advisedly placed by Ministers in the mouth of their Royal Mistress, followed by measures of re lief, trifling indeed, but still put forward and boasted of by Sir CEIARLES WOOD as really valuable, and the subsequent withdrawal of these propositions on utterly inadequate grounds, afforded a vantage nag he e w as not g round to the H onoura b le Member of which slow to avail himself. A Cabin e t mi n i s t e r the head of a great and important depart might say the mo s t i mportant t meat, perhaps w e department of the Government—should not h ave evinced such littleness of disposition, such p e tt y spite, as to withdraw his own propositions because with lo " ü b d a t e e d x p b r e r s e s a i t o h n s a n o d f. they were not received deep humility," or with those thanks and gratitude which he might have expected from the magnitude of the boon. As the justly Honourable mover of the amen d men t re marked—" Ministerial propositions should be the ' result of grave counsels, of mature delibera tions, of Cabinet conference and communica tion, suggested by a sense of public ditty LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL l 2l 1851. by a large and unimpassioned survey of public circumstances —not brought forward in levity, merely to obtain party support, nor withdrawn from a feeling of Parliamentary or personal annoy ance, or in a tone of flippant caprice." Sir CHARLES WooD, however, laid himself open to the well directed shaft by the reason assigned for the with drawal of the concessions offered to the agricultu rists, and he can scarcely complain if the vacancy should be taken advantage of, the blot hit, more especially when he might have continued his original intention without reducing his surplus below the necessary amount. He might have brought forward an entirely new Budget, without exciting any great wonder. Were he to do so the second, third, or even the fourth time within the session, it would not be quite without a precedent ; it was the insulting reason adduced that laid him fairly open to animadversion. Mr. DISRAELI himself, however, was not so ex plicit as we could have desired. There was some thing vague and shadowy in the terms of his motion. Were it even affirmed, nothing practical would be achieved. The House would not be committed to any definite course or substantial proceeding. Why did he not fairly take the bull by the horns, and move for a Committee to inquire into our entire fiscal system with a view to its revision ? No thing less will enable him to obtain the re lief he desires for the agricultural and other suffering interests. The entire taxation of the coun try must be placed on a new foundation before ex • tensive and really beneficial measures can be brought forward to promote the national prosperity, and ren der the industrious classes happy and contented. How long is Dr. HENRY PHILLPOTTS to be per mitted to receive the emoluments, and to enjoy the power, the privileges, and the patronage of the Bishopric of Xxeter, whilst refusing to perform the duties of that office ? It appears from a petition pre sented to the House of Commons on Thursday last by Lord ASHLEY, from the Rev. JAMES Wei, lIOND BURROUGII, M.A., Vicar of St. Mary's, Totnes, Devonshire, that the Right Rev. Dr. PHILLPOTTS still continues ostentatiously and contumaciously to refuse obedience to the law of the land, and to per form those duties, the performance of which that law has imposed on him as the condition on which alone he is entitled to sit in the House of Peers, and to re ceive the emoluments, to exercise the patronage, or to assume the territorial title which those laws have conferred on the holders of the Exeter see. The peti tion sets forth— " That your petitioner has been, for the last 13 years, vicar of St. Mary, Totnes, Devonshire, in the diocese of Exeter; " That your petitioner received the order of deacon and priest from the present Bishop of Exeter in the years 1835 and 1836 respectively, and was afterwards, in the year 1838, instituted by the said Bishop as aforesaid; " That your petitioner's health having lately become impaired, he was desirous of engaging tae service of a cu i ate to aid him in the discharge of his parochial du ties, and nominated to the Lord Bishop of Exeter for that office a highly respectable gentleman, ordained, within the last twelve months, by the Bishop of Peter borough, as curate to the said Bishop of Peterboroutela's son, at Peterborough, which piece he was compelle'd to leave from it not suiting his health, but with the most satisfactory testimonials as to his character and labours. "That, notwithstanding such testimonials, the Lord Bishop of Exeter declined to license the said nominee to your petitioner's curacy until after ho had under gone an examination (a course not usually adopted in such a case), and that after such examination, conducted by his chaplain, ha (the said Bishop) peremptorily re -1 used to license him to your petitioner's curacy, assign ing as his reason that what he wrote on the subject of baptism,' he (the raid Bishop) holds to be not in accord ance with the doctrine of the Church as set forth in our articles and formularies;' and, farther, the said Bishop, in a letter to 3 our petitioner, expressly states that he never will knowingly accept any clergyman who agrees with your petitioner on that subject, thereby entirely preventing your petitioner from obtaining any help fur the discharge of his ministerial duties. " That your petitioner and his nominee cordially accept the articles and formularies of the Church of Engl Ind, in their plain and natural sense, and hold no views on the subject of baptism but what they consider to be entirely agreeable to the said articles and formularies, and what have been recently adjudged to be consistent with the doctrines of the Church of England by a solemn judgment of her Majesty in Council, as supreme governor of the Church, aided by the advice and public consent of both the Pri mates; which judgment the Lord Bishop of Exeter in common with all the other bishops and clergy of the said church is by his solemn subscription to the supre macy of the Crown bound in his official acts to carry out. " 4 That your petitioner believes that fur this act of in justice, under which he is now suffering, the law as it now stands gives him no means of redress, the power of the Bishop in cases of ordination and granting of licences to curacies being supreme, and admitting of no appeal." How long, we ask, is the Bishop of EXETER to be permitted to set at naught the solemn judgment of her MAJESTY in Council, which judgment, by his solemn superscription to the supremacy of the Crown, ho is bound in his official acts to carry out ? How long are pious and worthy clergymen such as this excellent curate of the son of the Bishop of PETERBOROUGH, to be delivered over to the ruinous persecution of this sacerdotal despot ? It is absurd for my Lord JOHN RUSSELL to pen Durham letters, or for the Archbishop of CANTERBURY to write ad dresses, so long as they suffer such men as Dr. PnaLroTTs to flagrantly violate the law. Why were not proceedings taken for the deprivation of the Bishop of EXETER on his refusal to institute Mr. GOREIAM ? Had the Archbishop of CANTERBURY then done his duty this proud prelate would have been deprived of the power of persecuting Mr. BURROUGH and his curate; and the show of vigour in that instance would have been sufficient to have kept Puseyism from becoming rampant, and thus leading on to the Papal aggres sion. Had HENRY PHILLPOTTS been ejected from the see of ixeter for refusing to give effect to the judgment of the QUEEN in Council, NICBOLAS WISEMAN would never have been by the POPE in truded into the sham see of Westminster., It is use less for the Archbishop of CANTERBURY to cry " Peace, peace," when his adversaries declare by word and deed that there shall be no peace ; it is mockery for my Lord Joust RUSSELL to denounce the " mum meries of superstition," whilst he permits the realities of persecution to be brought to bear in support of those mummeries by one who has deliberately set the law, the Archbishop, and the SOVEREIGN at defiance. The world will begin to doubt the sincerity of both Archbishop and Minister, un less Sir HERBERT JENNER FUST be at once entrusted to make particular inquiries concerning the health of the soul of Dr. HENRY PHILLPOTTS. Should they, however, neglect their duty, we trust that Lord ASHLEY will not neglect his, but that he will at once bring the petition under the notice of Parliament in such a man ner as to elicit from Lord JOHN RUSSELL a distinct declaration whether or not he is content to take the part of leader in this great controversy. The opponents of sacerdotal despotism will gratefully accept him as such if he will do the work thoroughly conscientiously, but if he exhibits the slightest symptoms of flinching they will insist that he shall at once make way for men of firmer mind and more determined purpose.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were only 4,000 bales. The market was dull at previous rates. — Railway Shares were steady but firm. The weekly return of the Bank of England, to the sth inst., just presages the ensuing operation of the quar terly dividend payments. The Public Deposits having attained their maximum in the previous week, were being again reduced. The private deposits were considerably augmented. The other securities increased a little, but the next return will probably indicate a repayment of loans obtained upon Stock, while the transter-boolts were closed. A feature is the large reduction in the bullion, consequent on exports to the Cape of Good Hope, the East Indies, and the Continent.

The Scotch banks had less paper by 194,9914 and the Irish by 120,1391. There was an improvement in the rates of exchange for bills take❑ yesterday afternoon upon some of the principal continental cities. Paris, 90 days, was taken at 25 221 to 25; Amsterdam, at 11 16i to 16'1; Ham burgh, 13 71 to 8; Frankfurt, 1188 to 119; and Trieste, 13 15 to 18. The amount of bullion exported from London direct during the week, to Thursday last, has again been large, viz.: -4,288 ounces and 53,5001. in gold, chiefly to the Cape of Good Hope, France, and Belgium. Of silver 86,225 ounces were shipped, all but 1,600 ounces going to Holland and Belgium. The West India mail has not yet arrived. At Amsterdam, on the 10th instant, Dutch Two-and a-Half per Cents. were rather heavy at 57*. Spanish fell decidedly, and Mexican were feebler.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY, OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron MARTIN and Alderman COPELAND.) ROBBERY BY A VALET.—John Moss, aged 25, de scribed as a servant, was indicted for stealing a mi croscope, three caps, four shirt-studs, six shirts, two pairs of trousers, twelve pairs of souks, an unsct dia mond, and other articles, value 1001., the property of Mr. George Henry Brettle, a merchant, carrying on business in Wood-street, Cheapside. The prisoner pleaded aot Mr. Ballantine prosecuted, and Mr. Mew defended, the prisoner. The prosecutor formerly lived in the Albany. He was then a batchelor, and the prisoner was his valet and confidential servant, but last autumn he married and removed to Westbourn-terrace, Hyde-park, when the prisoner quitted his service. After he left the articles mentioned in the indictment, besides several cheque books, were missing, and on information of the loss being given to the police the property was traced to the pri soner's possession, and he was given into custody on the present charge. The defence was that the property was given to the prisoner by bis master. Tho jury found the prisoner Guilty, and the Court sentenced him to transportation for ten years. NEW COURT. Nicholas Kesterishy,, 32, described as a dealer, and Ellen Kesterishy, 35, his wife, were indicted for steal ing 24 pairs of trowsers, value 2/., and other goods, the property of Catherine Evans. The female prisoner pleaded guilty to having stolen the goods, but exculpated her husband from being a party to the robbery. From the evidence taken against the male prisoner, it appeared that the prosecutor was a dealer in the Clothes Exchange, and was in the habit, when business was over in the evening, of locking up her property, in what is called a locker, which was secured by a double lock. On Friday evening, the 21st of March, she left the locker, as usual, securely fastened, but, on return ing on the following morning, she found that it had been broken open, and that two dozen pairs of trowsers had been abstracted. The female prisoner was noticed loitering about the market on the previous evening, and the husband was taken into custody, ou Saturday, wkile in the act of disposing of a portion of the stolen property. The male prisoner, who is a Pole, made a long ram bling defence, alleging that ho had no knowledge what ever that his wife had come by the trowsers dishonestly. The RECORDER having summed up, The jury found him guilty of receiving the goods knowing them to be stolen. A policeman said the prisoner bore a very good cha racter, and was one of the most hard-working men in the pariah; but that he had suffered a great deal in con sequence of the bad conduct of his wife, who was a native of Ireland. The RECORDER, in passing sentence, said it was very likely that the male prisoner had been led into this act of dishonesty by his wife; but he could not shut his eyes to the fact that be must have known she had not the means of buying 24 pairs of trowsers, and could not, therefore, have obtained them in any honest way. How. ever, taking into consideration the good character he had received, ho would make a great difference between the two cases. The female prisoner was then sentenced to imprisonment for three calendar months, and her has band to 14 days' imprisonment.

An immense number of persons as sembled to witness the funeral, and the utmost decorum was displayed during the whole of the impressive ceremony. THE BISHOP OF LONDON.--It will be recollected that the Bishop of London was so indisposed on Sunday last as to be unable to leave his house, and consequently did not preach at St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, on that day, as he had intended.
