The Lords met last night, and received several peti tions against Papal aggreision, after which their Lord ships adjourned. In the Commons, Mr. DISRAELI moved the resolution of which he had given notice, calling upon the Government to adopt immediate measures for the effectual relief of the ex isting agricultural distress. Although he attributed that distress to the adoption of a free-trade policy in 1846, )et he did not pnpcse :hat they should retrace their steps. He would make no attempt to restore the abro gated system of protection. What he should propose was to relieve the agricultural interest from that taxa• tion, local and general, which pressed on it so unjustly. Nearly one-half of the Customs' revenue was raised in fact from the agricultural interest, because the farmer was prohibited from cultivating tobacco lest his produc tion of the article should diminish the revenue raised on its importation ; of the inland revenue two thirds were raised by the malt-tax, which pressed exclusively on the cultivator of the land, while of 12,000,0001 of local contributions 7,000,000 L was paid exclusively by the farmer. He was, moreover, subjected to the burden of the tithe, and even Mr. M'Cums.aH had admitted that on that account he was entitled to a countervailing duty on foreign corn. The farmer had been told that he was to employ more labour and more capital; he was prevented from obtaining the first by the law of settlement and the second by the currency laws. Both these laws must be altered in order to do full jus tice to the farmer. Having stated the grievances of the farmer, he did not propose to the House any specific measure for adoption; it was the duty of the Ministry to devise such measures, and he called upon the House to oblige the Minister to do his duty. The CIEINCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the distress of which the agriculturists complained could not be attributed altogether to the adoption of free trade; for iniFrance, where the importation of eorn was virtually prohibited, the agriculturists were even more distressed than they were in this country. The Hon. Gentleman, while dilating upon the distress of the owners and occupiers of land, had cautiously avoided all allu sion to the condition of the agricultural labourers; their condition was never more prosperous; they were fully employed, the purchasing power of their wages was greatly increased, and pauperism was rapidly diminish ing. The malt duty and the tobacco duty were not burdens exclusively on the agricultural interest, they were, in reality, paid by the . consumer. The assertion that seven-twelfths of the local taxation was paid by the land was an error, and in order to make up the sum the Hon. Gentleman had calculated not only the amount paid by agricultural land, but the amount paid by land on which houses and factories were erected. ,If they give up the Customs' duty on tobacco and the malt-tax, they would be under the necessity of re-imposing those duties from which the industry of the country had been recently relieved, and the removal of which had been of such great benefit to the producing classes. Since 1841 the revenue had in creased 4,726,0001.; the taxes repealed amounted to 10,763,000 L, from which, if the taxes imposed (5,665,000/.) were deducted, the balance of relief was upwards of 5,000,0001, with an augmentation of revenue nearly to the same amount,. Our imports had increased to an unexampled extent, and a policy which had produced such results could not be wrong. The introduction of im proved methods of cultivation and the judicious outlay of capital would soon relieve the British agriculturist from the temporary difficulties under which he was now suffering. He called upon the House to reject the motion. Mr. HODGSON urged a reduction in taxation, and a reform of the pension list. In Cumberland all classes connected with land, including the agricultural labourers, were suffering. Mr. G. BERKELEY and. Mr. G. SANDARS supported the motion. The debate was adjourned to to-morrow on the motion of the Marquis of GRANBY. Mr. W. WILLIAms moved for leave to bring in a Bill to prevent Sunday trading; the motion, wbkch was op posed by Mr. BARING WALL, was carried, on a division, by a majority of 70 to 19, and the House adjourned. The Hon. Gentleman the Member for Bucking hamshire last night brought forward his important and anxiously-looked-for motion on the subject of agricultural distress. It is almost unnecessary to say that every real grievance under which the British farmer is suffering was clearly and ably put forward, and that many imaginary injuries were added to the catalogue. Mr. DISRAELI does not perform his work in a slovenly or inefficient manner. He is well qualified to make " the worse appear the better reason" —to excite sympathy and compassion wherever his clients are really aggrieved, and even to work up fictitious narratives to a harrowing pitch. The agriculturists are indeed fortunate to possess so accomplished an advocate, one so competent to bring the contest respecting every reasonable demand to a triumphant issue. But, un fortunately, their demands are not reasonable ; they misunderstand the causes of the disease under which they are suffering, and they are even in greater error as to the nature of the remedies that may possibly prove efficacious. Their distress and difficulty are, unfortunately, but too well known. They have, we regret to say, been too palpable to admit the possibility of denial. The Ministers themselves are:their witnesses. Even the testimony of our Most Gracious SOTEREIGN is not wanting. The paragraph from the Royal Speech—which was appropriately called for before bringing on the mo tion—was conclusive on that point. It showed that while other classes were prospering the agriculturists were encountering the most serious difficulties. It is, as the Hon. Gentleman justly remarked, " a conjunc ture that should make a Minister reflect." One point is clear—there is unquestionably the " depression" which should not exist in a well-regulated state of society and a well-governed community. But how is this untoward state of affairs to be ameliorated, without injury or injustice to others ? How can the agricultural interests be ele vated, without causing other classes to sink in an in verse ratio in the social scale ? These are the important questions to be answered, the problems to be solved. Must a new CHIMPUS arise to unriddle these abstruse enigmas ? We think not. With the aid of our esteemed friend the Rev. JouN TWELLS, we would undertake to unravel the mystery, to find a clue to the labyrinth, that now puzsies the embarrassed yeoman. He, with a serious deprecia tion in the value of his produce, finds no reduction in the enormous burdens to which be is subjected—his rents, tithes, local and general taxation, interest on mortgages, and family charges are all placed on the same foundation that they were when there was a free and unrestricted currency—a free trade in money. He is bound to satisfy in gold at 20s. for the pound sterling the debts contracted in paper worth 14s. the pound sterling. His out goings have been maintained at the same rate that they were in the olden time, while his incomings have been reduced at least one-half. He is now liquidating liabilities contracted when corn produced an average of 87s. 10d. per quarter, with the same commodity at 425. or 435. ; or, in other words, he is obliged to give one hundred quarters to satisfy the claim that was formerly contented for fifty quarters. Notwithstanding increased skill, additional toil, from which follow improved cultiva tion and enlarged produce, he is unable to make both ends meet. He then makes every practicable reduc tion in his expenditure, discharges labourers, stints his land of the necessary manure, and, too late, dis covers that the " penny wise and pound foolish po licy"—the desperate expedients to which he is driven by the exigencies of his position, are all worse than useless—that, in fact, they only aggravate his distress. He then looks back with regret to the " good old" times when a licensed black mail, in the shape of a " corn-law," was tolerated, and when the working classes generally paid tribute to the farmer —a tribute, by the way, which passed out of his hands almost as rapidly as it came into them in the shape of tithes, rents, rates, and taxes, and be believes that f that atrocious impost were re-established all would be well. " 0, caeca mens mortalium." Alas ! the short sightedness of mankind. Has he forgotten the agri cultural distress that has from time to time prevailed —the wail of egony that has resounded throughout the length and breadth of the land since the introduc tion of the corn-laws and the restoration of cash pay ments ? The latter iniquitous measure, which double riveted the c h a i ns o f th e debtor, which required the over .toiled operative thenceforward to "wake his bricks without straw," far more than counter-balanced the supposed gains arising from the formes. Supposed gains, we say, for they went into the hands of the parson, the landlord, the rate and cess collector, and the tax-gatherer. The owners and occupiers of land still " strain at the impossibility created by themselves," the attempt to ke e p u p th e pr i ce o f agricultural pro duce with a restricted currency. Nothing but the restitution of the ancient standard can accomplish that desideratum, and it is for the restitution of that standard—for the establishment of a full measur e of j us tine between debtor and creditor, that they should la bour. Mr. DISRAELI looks for relief from fiscal changes. He brings prominently forward the injury ingietedon the agriculturist under the present system of reple nishing the national Exchequer. The exterral im ports, the inland revenue, and the local contributions alike crush to the dust and paralyse the exertions of the cultivator of the soil. In this, however, the farmer suffers in common with his fellow-subjects of all classes, and it is not by shifting the burden from one shoulder to another that relief should be sought or can be obtained. Let the farmer, then, demand, and his zealous and efficient advocate, Mr. DISRAELI, support, a large and comprehensive measure of monetary reform, which will afford " protection to British industry" generally, but not to one descrip tion thereof—which will alike prove beneficial to all who " earn their daily bread by the sweat of their brows." Let him plant his standard on this broad basis, and he will find many recruits willing to array themselves under his banner, by whose assistance he may achieve triumphs greater than any to which he has as yet ventured to look forward. Her MAJESTY'S responsible Ministers in both Houses of the Legislature have announced the inten tion of Government to introduce a measure during the present session of Parliament, for the abolition of the Irish Viceroyalty, an announcement which will be as gratifying to a vast majority of the inhabitants of both islands without the walls of the House of Commons, as it appeared to be to a large majority of the representatives of the varied interests and feel ings within, when the announcement was made by the First Minister of the Crown. This Bill would have been now the law of the land, and would have prevented a little exhibition of fretful agitation on the part of some Dublin shop keepers and their sympathisers, had it been proposed at an earlier period of the last session. But, from the reply of the Marquis of LANSDOWNE in the House of Lords, we are induced to hope that there will be no failure on the same grounds in the present session, as his Lordship is reported to have said that this Bill will be one of the first brought under the notice of the Legislature after taking the estimates. The early introduction of this measure we look upon as most judicious and salutary, and particularly so in reference to Ireland. We can very easily fancy how readily, just at this moment, the people of Dublin could get up a show of agitation through the country. The most shadowy grievance would be quite sufficient to excite the ROLICID Catholic population, and we think it would be wise is the Government and usaful to Ireland to cut off as speedily as possible this paltry source of fancied injustice. Ireland is in a state of transition—she is just emerging from a state of social and physical disorga nization—she has been the prey of famine, disease, and rebellion—she is but beginning to show some signs of returning health. In the natural world, the bursting of the thunder-cloud will purify the over laden atmosphere, let us hope that the desolating in fluences which have so long and so fearfully disturbed the social and physical elements of that island will be followed by the like purifying effects. Indeed we can clearly see strong symptoms of convalescence. Crime has sensibly diminished ; the mone tary returns indicate an immense increase of the circulating medium ; food is cheap and abundant, and the whole country is comparatively tranquil. Such a time is auspicious for the introduc tion of this important measure—important, not so much for the transfer of an official from Dublin to Downing•street, as for the moral lesson which it is calculated to inculcate, by instilling into the public mind of Ireland feelings of self-reliance and hope fulness. The reasoning of those opposed to the measure, with few exceptions, may be traced to the selfishness of a few who conceive their interests at stake. The tailors and milliners of Dublin appear to labour under the notion that the moment Lord CLARENDON leaves the Castle the Irish ladies and gentlemen will have no further use for coats, gowns, or bonnets; the lawyers are in a state of trepidation lest his Excellency should bring the Four Courts In his pocket, though the strongest assurances have been given that no such felonious intent is in contemplation. Amongst the lawyers we are glad to see one noble exception, the father of the Irish Bar, the venerable and respected ROBERT HoLatzs,. refused to join in this foolish outcry. He said he looked upon this measure as a natural consequence of the Act of Union. He is quite right, that union can never be complete till Ireland shall be really and substantially made an integral portion of the empire, till she shall be fully and perfectly imperialized, till she shall be governed in the same spirit and from the same IMMEDIATE source as the counties of York and Lancaster. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY would appear to have engaged in a recruiting expedition to raise opponents to the measure. The reasoning, perhaps we should rather say the feelings, which dictate his Lordship's opposition seem to us to savour not a little of the fantastical, and the consequences he anticipates we think he considerably exaggerates. In a letter to Colonel DUNNE, be says, " I Rill show to posterity that he whose name I bear, never imagined when he carried the union that Ireland was to be de prived, especially after 50 year.' duration of that Act, of her capital, her courts of law, her institutions, and by one general swamp to reduce the first city of our Emerald Isle to the level of Cork," &c. To attribute such fearful and almost miraculous effects to the mere fact of changing the Lord-Lieute nant of Ireland into a Minister for the administration of Irish affairs, with an office in London instead of Dublin, we can but look on us a powerful stretch of fancy ; and we have little doubt had the late Lord CASTLEREAGH lived to this period the measure would have no warmer advocate. It is but natural to suppose that he who was the chief instrument in effecting the Act of Union should advocate a measure tending to cement that union, and to add to the strength and consolidation of the empire. A great revolution has taken place since the days of Lord CASTLEREAGH. Half a century has brought about great changes in the relations of the two islands. Our means of locomotion, by which it may be said, almost without hyperbole, that time and space are annihilated, have brought Ireland sufficiently close for all Governmental purposes as many portions of England or Scotland. The electric telegraph has brought the capitals of the two countries into almost immediate communication, entirely superseding the necessity for separate executives. The hero of Waterloo has put forward an objection on military grounds which we think quite as untenable as those of the Gallant Marquis. We object to the Irish Viceroyalty on the grounds of the extraordinary and unconstitutional powers vested in the Lord-Lieutenant. At this moment he could suspend the Habeas Corpus Act ; he has the power to imprison her MAJESTY'S Irish subjects on suspicion, and could proclaim the whole island or any portion of it. These are powers dangerous to public liberty, and unsafe to be entrusted to any in dividual. No doubt they are at present i❑ safe and able hands, but how soo❑ may they not fall into other and different ones ? 'We have every faith in the present Chief Governor and in the purity of his able and indefatigable colleague, Sir WILLIAM SOMER VILLE ; but still we should wish to see such powers under the immediate check and con trol of the Cabinet. Above and beyond all, we ohject to the continuance of the Irish Court as a hotbed for the fomentation and encouragement of intrigue. No matter how able or how amiable the Viceroy may be, he is still the representative of cer tain principles opposed by a considerable party, who will neither attend his Cour' nor take counsel for the general good with those who do, thus perpetuating strife and faction, to tie ruin of their common country. In discussing this subject we have fre- quently called the attention of the Irish people to the case of Scotland. The people of that country have no Viceroy, yet, in the beautiful language of one of Ireland's greatest orators, are they seen " winging their eagle flight against the blaze of every science, with an eye that never blinks and a wing that never t i res ." Let us hope we shall hear no more of the unmanly whine about the destruction of trade and commerce, but that the Irish people will turn their _ _ ...,... attention to develop the industrial resources of their fertile and beautiful island, and imitate the noble example of their hardy, independent, and.self-relying brethren of Scotland.

Madras 2d. lower on the inferior and 6d. on the better kinds. Kur pah about former prices. The attendance of buyers has been moderate. The wool sales begin to-morrow. From 20,000 to 25,000 bales will be offered, chiefly colonial. The Corn Market is dull this morning. The Trade and Navigation Returns are just out for the year ending the sth January. No monthly comparison is furnished. The exports of British and Irish produce and ma nufactures were last year valued at 65,756,0321., and in 1849 at 58,910,8831., showing an excess of 6,845,149/.

Two large buildings, 100 and 80 feet long, had been prepared for the reception of the emigrants, and those by the Justine were temporarily lodged there. Those entitled to laud were taken up to their locations by Mr. Edmund Morewood, and some of them had already re turned for their families and baggage, The Plicenix steamer had made an excursion trip from Capetown to Natal, and the passengers had, on their return, given the most favourable accounts of Natal. One gentleman writes to his friends— " All the passengers are quite unanimous, viz., that the fine ness of the soil and of tbe climate must ensure its going ahead of the old colony, especially in respect to agriculture." The ranisti Ikndholders' meeting is now being held. The Funds are more buoyant, and the settlement of the account has been going on satisfactorily.

THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY The quantity of English Wheat on sale in to-day's market was very moderate, the time of year considered, but of some what improved quality. The continuous arrivals of grain and Flour from abroad had a most depressing effect upon the demand, which ruled heavy in the extreme, at barely last week's prices, and a total clearance was not effected. Up wards of 11,000 quarters of foreign Wheat have reached us this week, a portion of which has gone direct into the hands of the millers ; yet the trade was extremely inactive, at al most nominal currencies. The supply of Barley being ex tensive, that article met a very dull inquiry, at barely sta tionary prices. Fine Malt sold at previous rates, but other qualities were very dull. We had a slow sale for Oats, which ruled the turn in favour of the buyers. Beans and Peas, Indian Corn and Flour, dull in the extreme. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. r-- Barley. Malt.

COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL. (THIS DAY.) THE CASE OF THE BIRDS. Judgment in this case was delivered this morning, all the Learned Judges being present, with the exception of Mr. Baron Platt. The circumstances of the case will be fresh in the memory of our readers. The prisoners were tried at Exeter assizes, before Mr. Justice Talfourd, for the murder of Sarah Parsons, a parish apprentice, who lived with them as servant; but the Learned Judge directed an acquittal, there being no sufficient evidence to convict the prisoners of having struck the fatal blow. The prisoners were after wards put on their trial for assault, to which they pleaded autrefois acquit. Mr. Russell Gurney, who tried the case, directed a verdict of guilty to be entered, and reserved the case for the consideration of the judges. The case was argued last week, and this morning was appointed for judgm, nt to be given. The Learned Judges delivered their opinions seriatim, beginning with Mr. Baron Martin, the junior judge. The L Ord Chief Baron, Justices Patteson, Coleridge, Wight man, Erle,Cres swe ii, Willi a ms, and Taltiourd, were of opinion that the convi ct i on should be confirmed, as the verdict of acquittal which had been returned on the former trial was meant only to apply to the charge of felony, and did not include the assault, for which they were put on trial. Lord Campbell, Lord Chief Justice Jervis, Barons Parks, Alderson, and Martin, and Mr. Justice Mettle were of opinion that the charge el assault was clearly included in the in dictment on the first trial, and the acquittal which was re turned must be held to apply to the as , suit as well as the felony. A man could not be put in peril twice for the same offence, and they were therefore of opinion that the convic tion was wrong. A majority of the judges being in favour of the conviction the conviction was ordered to be confirmed. Lord CAMPBELL expressed a hope that the Legislature would speedily take steps to alter a law which had caused such a difference of opinion in the judges. ARRIVAL OF TIER MAJESTY AND THE COURT. — Her Majesty and Prince Albert, accompanied by their illus trious children, and attended by Viscountess Jocelyn, Lady iii Waiting; Lord Dufferin, Lord in Waiting; the lion.

The illustrious party travelled by special train on tha Great Western Railway to the Paddington Station, whence they were escorted to the Palace by an officer's party of the 16th Lancers. The Queen was received at the Palace by the Master of the Horse, the Lord Chamberlain, and the Lord Steward. FEBRUARY 12, 1851 'UN CONDITIONAL RE PEAL OF - THE WEN D 0 W- TAX. MEETING OF THE INHABITANTS . OF WEST. MINSTER.-(THIS DAY.) A public meeting of the inhabitants of Westminster was held this morning in the Theatre Royal Drury-lane, for the purpose of adopting a petition to Parliament praying for the immediate and unconditional repeal of the window-tax. The house was moderately full, and amongst the audience was a tolerably large.spriokling of the fair sex: The stage .was occupiad by deputations from the various metropolitan parishes and the gentlemen who were to take part the proceedings - of the day.' Viscount Duncan, '1‘1.1):, took the chair at 12 o'clock. The other Membera of the House of Commons present were Lord Dudley Stuart, Sir De Lacy Evans, Mr. C. Lushirigton, Sir B. Hall, Mr. Wakley, -Mr. J. Williams, Mra W. Williams, Mr. Mowatt, &c. . . The CHaniairme, in opening the business of the morning, thanked the meeting for having placed him in the chair, a position which he had no right to expect ; but, being placed there, he would use'his best ability to 'promote the cause they had in hind.— (Heat, hear) He knew, the value of time, and as he had for six consecutive years proposed the repeal of the window-tai, he need not'go over the arguments Which could be urged in favour of such a ,anotion.—( - lear, hear.) He had again placed his resolution on the books of the Hou - saad Commons, and should the Chancellor of the Ex chequer abstain from proposing the abolition of the tat on Friday night, he should certainly persevere with it.—(Hear, hear.) lie had fought the battle of repeal in a time of ad versity,. but do not let them, now that there was a prospect of success, relax in their exertions.— (Loud cries of "Hear, hear.") . It was yet very doubtful whether the repeal would be accomplished this session, notwithstanding the silence with which the Chancellor of the Exchequer received the deputation the other day, and which was, according to the old adage, suffered to give consent to what was proposed. —( Hear, hear, and cheers.) That was, however, a delusive notion.—(Hear, hear.) He belonged to a country where the inhabitants had some credit for'shrewdness; now it was said, when a Scotchman was asked a question which he fotuid a difficulty in answering, he generally met it by asking another question.—(A laugh.) That was just the • course which had been pursued in Downing -street, for. when they asked for a repeal of the window-tax, they were met witti the inquiry "why, do you wish to have a house-tax?" For his part he wished for nothing of the soit-- I (Hear) nor was anything of the Sort necessary.—(Hear, hear.) The unconditional repeal of the tax had hitherto been opp,•sed on the ground that it would endanger the yublic credo, but that cry would not do now-a-days, since there was a surplus in the revenue, and the tax could be aboashed without in the least breaking faith with the national creditor.--(Hear, hear.) And what was the prescnt prosperity of the country owing to?' ,TO'nothing more liar lesa :then those tree-trade measures which they bad heard .) andch .of at one time viithitithette walls,, and which had brought.the eaasting Mi niatry into office.---(Cheers.) then, he said, if this were so; and he — really - believed it waa, they had a right to call upon such 'a Governmeht not to . stop al,tovt in those principles; but give them ~ free-trade in light and air as well as in bread and provisioes,—(Cheers,) The window tax was an iujestiee committed at, :the expense of the -poor man; it was a disgrace to the nation, and ought 'not to be, longer continued.—(Hear, hear.) It was , not only unequ a l, but absolutely unfair in its operation*, and if he had no other argument to 'urge in favour of its repeal, he should,still feel justified in persevering with his otion.--(Cheers.) He was confident in this movement.would ultimately triumph, and in the full hope that' the, time was not far distant when every Englishman . would be able 'to build for him self a Crystal PalaCe, if he were so minded, he would resume his seat with the urgent request that, as this was an open public meethig, _bath sides of ;he question would have a fair hearing.—(Cheers.) Mr. WILLIAM GEESIN, churehWarden of St. James's, moved the first re.aolution, which was as follows :-- "'That the window duty is a tax upon light, and air; that it is unequal, unjust, and detrimental to health and comfort; that it is opposed to sanitary reform and architectural im provements; and that it. is a mode of levying taxation that never ought to have been adopted, and in the opinion of this meeting, should no longer continue." - • In support of the resolution he maintained that while the aris tocracy paid only two or three per, cent. of the tax upon their gross rental, the lab our i ng man paid between twenty and thirty per cent.—(Cheers.) The tax was decidedly and essentially a war tax, and its continuance was 'not only unjust, but very unconstitutional.—(Cheers.) Mr. GEoitGE, churchwarden of St. Anne's, seconded the resolution,.. and also illustrated the inequality of the tax " with a round, unvarnished tale." The St. Anne's Court house, which yielded a rental of only 221. per annum, paid the same amount of w i n d ow -t ax as the mansion of Soho square, namely, '54 14s. Id. ' per yeara--(Shame, shame.) Again, Ireland was exempted from the tax. He did not wish to see it extended to the sister kingdom, but surely the poverty of,England ought not to be taxed for the wealth of Ireland.—(Cheers.) Then the universities were exempted from itauperation, but for what he did not know.—(Hear.) A Vorcx—Why, to. make Puseyites, to be sure.—(Cheers.) Mr. GEORsiE concluded by stating the startling fact that the tax curtailed the life of the poor man by twenty years, and it_was therefore nothing less than murder to continue it. —(Cheers.) If the. present Government did not do their duty, therewere other men fit for the office, and to that office they, should be called.'-- I (Cheers.) A Voroa— e pOwn with the Whigs.—(Cheers.) The CatAIRMAN obierved that. this was not a political meeting, and he therefore hoped nothing would be said which could hurt the feelings of any one present.—(Cheera.) Mr. GEoatait resumed, amidst some confusion, and in sisted that it was the duty of a Governme n t to exhaust the taxation of property before it attempted to hamper labour. Sir DE LACY EVANS, M.P., spoke in support of the reso lution, and hoped that before another week passed they would learn that the window-tax had been doomed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. (Cheers.) But its aboli ion must not be carried only to be replaced by another burden, such as a house tax, which would take 150 years to remove it.—(Cheers.) In no country in Europe had the houses so few winthiwa than in England, but then no other country in Europe hada window-tax. That was a significant fact, and now that they made so much of sanitary improvements, he trusted the window-tax would not be lost sight of, for, with out freedom of light and air, the extension of sewers and the closing of churchyards in populous districts would be robbed of at least half their utility.—(Cheers.) He recommended that thee supplies should be stopped till the tax was repealed, for it was objectionable. both on fiscal and constitutional grounds, and if the course he had suggested were approved of. by his constituents he should be ready to adopt it in spite of past experience against such a proceeding. Mr..- °HARI.= LUsHINGToN, M.P., also tpolre‘hriettY to the resolution; and said if the tax' were abOlished the Country. would be indebted for it to the exertions of the metropolitan districts, whose energy and deterinination he, had.aritnessed with admiration.--((heera) The tax must be repealed without delay, without compromise, and withoueaubstitute, and so far as his voice and 'vote would go, they should be employed in obtaining that wished ! for result of this great movement—(Cheers.) He too,, was for stopping the sup plies, but he'believeil such a course would be unnecessary, for it was fully expected, and he could almost stake his ex= istence for it, that on Friday next the Chancellor of the Ex chequer would announce the entire and uncenditiotal repeal , 'of the tax.—(Cheers.) „ Lord Dynasty STUART, . a few words expressed his hearty coocurrenca in the object of, the meeting; that was all he had to do, since the time had gone by when, it was re quired of a man to urge arguments in support of the repeal of the window-tax, and he looked at the de s tr uc ti on o f the tax as certain.-4 Cheers.) He had not the same confidence that the repeal would be unaccompanied by a substitute, but he, for oate, was of opinion, that thereavas no occasion for -a sub stitute; and If, therefore, the Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed any new tax, he hoped the country would refuse to pay it.—(Cheers.) The surplus in the revenue at present exceeded 3,000,000/., and as it was calculated that the Great Exhibitino would increase that surplus by another 2,000,0001, they had a right to hope that the time had at length arrived when the people ought to be relieved from some of their burdens. He should, therefore, not be satisfied with the simple repeal of the window-tax ;le expeeted also to see the paper:duty, the taxes on knowledge, the tea and soap duties abolished; bat the first thing to be done was to get the repeal, of the window-tax, for what was the good of giving a man a cheap newspaper if he had-no- light to read it with ?—(Cheers and laughter.) Let them, then, get the window-tax repealed and then go for the others.—( Cheers.) Sir B. HALL, M.P., thought, after such a demoostration as this, 'called almost at a moment's notice, . the window-tax cotild . n6 longer' be continued and he hoped, within the next 48 hours, the Chancellor ofthe Exchequer would propose its utter annihilation in the` 'House of Comnaons.—(Cheers.) &mild the- Right. Hon. Gentleman not have the justice or the towage to do so, then would' be the time to be -up and doing in earnest; then mould be the time to tell the Go vernment that . they would have the light and air which God! had-given them,untaxed.—(Cheers.) What was the use of that miserable humbug the Sanitary Commission so long as this tax existed?--(Cheers.) A'multitude of foreigners were about to honour the metropolis with a visit, and no doubt many of them would ask how it was that we build such I wretchedly small and cramped-up dwellings.-(Hear, hear.) No* what-answer could they make to a question like that? —(Hearahear.) What more could they do but hide their diminished heads, and say, "we build by Act of Parlianient; and our dimensions are 4 feet 9."—(Cheers and laughter.) The tax was unconstitutional, unjust, obnoxious, and con trary to . every just proposition of God's nature, and it must be unconditionally repealed at once---(Cheers.). The reeolUtioa was then putand carried.by acclamation, Mr ..Naution moved 'the second resolution as follows: " That this meeting pledges itself to' use every legitimate. means to cause the removal of this obnoxious tax from the statute-book, and earnestly appeals to all MembersUf Par liament, in the event of the Government refusing its total, immediate, and unconditional repeal, to offer such con stitutional opposition to the passing of the: supplies as' will saow that the,present Ministers no longer . possess the con fidence of the people." He said they had assembled there, not by command of her Majesty, but on the invitation of the Prime Minister, who appeared to be'. like• a blushing maiden, and waited, to be importuned before he consented to. anthing.--(Cheers and laughter.) The Chancellor of the. Exchequer had told the country that nothing would be ob tained. without an out-of-door agitation ; and if he did not immediately repeal this ,tax he might depend ,upon it he would have enough of his own specific.--(Cheero • Mr. COLWELL, of St. Clement's, seconded the resolution. Mr. .Wakatty, 1t1.P., spoke to the resoulution. lie appeared there. , as.. an elector ef. Westminster, the an dent cradle; of eur, liberties, and always ready te .promote. with energy and liherality any cause that was for the public). good.— : (Cheers.) He came ()tithe stage to tell his represen tatives hi ;Parliament: - who - were gone. —(A laugh )—that, they would never more have his vote if they (lid • not carry out their pledge, but -he felt no' apprehension on that score, and he was mute confident that they would do their dutya--(Cheers.) It.- very seldom fell to his .tot to praise, Nohlo Lords.—(Laughter.). Generally speaking, it had been his. misfortune to find Noblalaards mom ornamental than useful—(A laugh)—but the Noble ; Lard in. the their was AR .e,xceptiou to, this r01e.,--(Cheers,) ale.,aad not for gotten. to be an honest man thougii he was a Noble Lord— (Cheere)and if they got this tax repealed pinch of the credit which would be, clairried for .that, result ~Iveyiti be tie to the Noble Chairman.-(Cheers.) After compliment; [ng the 'fair sex for having taken up the question—which essentially belonged to them for nobody was more interested in making houses h ea lthy and comfortable than the ladies he went on to remark that it was an axiom that a law- maker should not break the law; and it would, there fore, ill become him. if he said he would stop the sup. plies.—(l..ond cheers.) But he was ,not- going to break the law ; what he was going t o do was this, he should refuse after this year to pay the tax, and leave it for the tax - gatherer t o seiz e , and , he hoped the meeting would follow his example.— (Cheers.) Mr. BRETTINGitax, of St. Pancras, here interrupted the speaker, but be was put clown, and Mr. WAKLUY proceeded.. He hoped the gentleman who had caused the interruption was not a supporter of the tax; but if he was he wished he would give him 1 1 1 4 body, fir .he thought he could make more money by him than would he made by the glass house in Hyde-park re an exhibition.—(Cheers and laughter.) To conclude, he hoped in a few days to be called upon to hold an inquest on this odious tax, and he was convinced if he did so he should behold the most monstrous, the ugliest, the vilest, and the most infamous body that had ever fallen to the lot of any coroner to sit upon.—(Cheers and laughter.) Mr. BRETTINGIIAM said, when he interrupted Mr. Wakley it was simply to explain that the Government did not recover assessed taxes by-" seizing," but through.the me dium of the Court of Exchequer, where the suitor bad to pav all the costs, no matter whether he won or lost. .Mr. W. supported . the resolution.. It Was an old iaying that there was nothing new under the sun, and he could add -with equal truth that nothing `riew • `could be said against this - ' tax.—(Cheets. ) He had therefore only this to tell them, that he cordially sympathised with the movement, and he should take the advice of those who preceded him, and , stop the supplies if the window-tax was not at once unconditionally repealed .—(Cheers. )- The reshlution was then put to thee vote and carried' in the same manner as the first. Mr. Wnsow, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, moved the third resolution, as follows :—" That this meeting cannot anti cipate the possibility of 'any attempt' to re-impose tbe unpb pular house-tax, which *as repealed, in 1834, by Lord Althorp, demanded by the unanimous voice of the people, more particularly as since that pe. nod houses have been, made subject to the property tax, which is in fact a house tax. Should any such attempt be made this meeting pledges itself to give it every oppo sition in its 'power, being convinced that sufficient reduction can be made in the expenditure of the country to meet this as well as much larger reduction!. Mr. BROWN, of St. James's, seconded the resolution, which was supported by several other gentlemen, and afterwards carried by acclamation. A petition to Parliament, based upon the foregoing resolution, was then agreed to, and thanks Were voted to Viscount Duncan, M. R, and the other Members of Parliament, who have already supported the repeal of the window-tax, and requesting them rot to relax in their ex ertions till the repeal has been unconditionally obtained. Thanks were then presented to the Noble Chairman for his conduct in the ehair, and the meeting, which some time before its chin became very crowded indeed, broke up. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. (THIS DAY.)

PAPAL AGGRESSION-11DJOURNED DEBATE. - The order of the day for resuming 'the adjourned debate having been read, Mr. P. HOWARD observed that if a, retrograde step were i taken in this country, such as was proposed by the measure of the Government with regard to the r ecent'measures of the Pope, he knew not where it could b a stopped. Although the Right Honourable Gentleman the Itlember for Northum berland had stated there was an unanbe ions feeling through ' out the country against those measures, no meeting on the subject had been called ici the great county of Lancaster, but that great mart of manufacturing industry had looked on with philosophic; calmness and repose, and waited with patience until the tins e when truth should prevail.—(Hear, hear.) In many othe rof the large towns in the kingdom there had been an exhibition of feeling directly against memoralising the Queen. In Id eeds the town council considered that any interference by th €. Government would be a violation of that religious freedom which prevailed in this country, and in several other plat:, es the same feeling was exhibited. As there had been no violation of the law, how could it be said there was any aggression 2 The law officers of the Crown had not been enabled to find out any statute which made these proceedings of the Roman Catho lics illegal, and were they to retrogra d e in their policy in order to pass pains and penalties on c e rtain religious forms worship of a large body of her Majesty's subjects It had been said that the Synod of Thurles hail interfered with reli• gious liberty byanaking eertaia sugpastions relative to the education of the people ' • but the thusii would recollect that when the Right Hon.: Getleman, the 'late Home Secretary (Sir d ames Graham), introduced a gin lent] measure of edu cation), it was opposed by. the Wesleyare body, who, together with other religious bodies, was 1113 inly instrumental in throwing out the measure. He alluded to that circumstance to prove that other 'religious sects had expressed as decided opinions on the question of national (*lunation as the Synod of Thurles. It was the opinion of Lord Castlereagh that the itietitution of bishops was a beneficial substitution for the immediate superintendence of the Site of Rome. In his letter the Supreme Pope had addressed himself to the Catholics alone of this country, and in his relation as_ their spiritual father. It, wzas hia anxiety for the spiritual welfare of the Catholics that he lad written this letter, and not from any d esire for territorial ag 'gression. This country had obtain's(' Canada by a treaty stipulating to maintain the Catholic religion, and it was as much the established religion there as the Protestant reli gion was here. England was not the only country where bishops of a foreign nation were established—Constantinople had a patharch for the Greek, Latin, and Syriac rite. The ad dress of the Cardinal-Archbishop 'was directed only to the Catholic archbishops, and it was an axiom that a document only applied to those to whom it VI:RS addressed ; and, if he migb t without impiety quote it, the highest of all Authorities had laid down a rule by Which the application of it might be interpreted—" Whose image and superscription is this ?" With regard to the measure, and that particular part of it which interfered with charitable bequests, with the rela tions between .man and his 'pastor, he' could only say. that the law officers of the Crown would find notnote only their intellectual ingenuity, but their physi cal endurance, tried to maintain this, enactment.—(Hear.) He would ask them as Englishmen to say whether they would be content to pay for rights without receiving the in dulgence to which they were entitled?--(Hear, hear.) Humble as he was, he had, to the beet of his ability replied to, andle thought ausvrered, the speech of the First Minis ter of the Crown.
