Catnina LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 16, 1851. In the House of Lords last evening, The Earl of DERBr moves' that the papers laid be fore the House during the present and last session re specting the representative institutions granted to the Cape be referred to a Select Committee. The Noble Earl, although he censured the course which had been pursued by the Colonial Secretary, denied that he was actuated by party or personal hostility in bringing for ward this motion; his only object being to aid the Go vernment in escaping from a great difficulty by legis- lation. Earl GREY defended the policy which the Govern ment had pursued at the Cape of Good Hope, de precated any attempt at interference on the part of Parliament vs calculated to weaken the authority .of the Crown in the colony, and &ear( d that it was impos sible to imsgine what could have induced thke Noble Earl to bring forward such a motion, except a desire to secure a party triumph. Toe Earl of MALMESBURY and Lord LYNDHURST eR A N supported w o R T t a h , , an m d o t t was oeprtsed by Lord The Duke of ARGYLE expreAted his approval of the hioen.L:RnirChHANCELLOR: conduct of the Noble Earl the Colonial Secretary, and opposed the motion, as one calculated to invalidate the authority of the mother country and impair the powers of the Crown. Lord WHARNCLIFFE thought it inexpedient to refer an o, qoestious to i bplect Committee. Toe Duke of NEWCASTLE would abstain from support ing the motion it he tnought it involved a vote of cen sure on the Government. The E al of DERBY replied, and The House divided—Contents, 68; non-contents, 74 ; majoriiy in favour of Ministers, 6. In the House of Commons, at the morning sitting, The Harwich Election Committee reported that Mr. H. W. CRAWFORD had not bean duly elected, and that the last %Action for that borough was a void election. The House was occupied in Committee with the cetail of the Cuuaty Courts further Extension Bill during the whole sittin,. At the evening sitting, Mr. EWART moved certain resolutions, the objects of which were to reduce the Lumber of Members and im prove the composition of Select (public) Committees of the House, and to prescribe three instead of five as a out tient quorum of Members for a Select Committee. The motion was, after a short deba . e, withdrawn, upon an intimation from Lord J. RUSSELL that he would not oppo,e the appointment of a select Committee next ses sion to consider the subje.ct. Lord NAAS moved a resolution, pledging the House to re solve itself into a Committee on a future day to consider the present state of the milling interest in Ire land. Mr. LABOUCHERE said that the effect of agreeing to the motion would be to revive the corn-laws; fur Eng lish millers would demand the same protection that was given to Irish millers, and the protection that was given to the millers could not be refused to the tarmers. Mr. J. STUART and Mr. ANSTEY supported the mo tion,_ which was opposed by Mr. Room. Mr. NEwnEca.TE, in supporting the motion, made an attack upon the principles of free trade generally, and was replied to by Mr. J. WILSON. Colonel DUNNE would have every interest in Ireland protected. Lord NAAS having replied, the House divided, when the motion was negatived by 128 against 93. Certain Bills were advanced a stage, and the other orders bring disposed of, the House adjourned at a Quarter to One o'elcek. Majorities have latterly become so scarce with her MAJESTY'S Ministers, that even the trivial one of six, obtained last evening in the House of Lords, is really to them a matter of serious congratulation. It will be observed from the discussion provoked upon this occasion by the Earl of DERBY'S motion condemna tory of the policy of the Colonial Secretary, that against the almost despairing weakness of the Cabinet was brought to bear all the spite, the virulence, and the audacity of a resolute and factious Opptsitiou. These considerations should not be over looked by the people, if it is desiredithat justice should be done by them to the latest and not least remark able of the few triumphs achieved by the Govern ment. In the instance specified it was the unpopular head of the Colonial Department of the Administra tion against whom the whole fury of the attack was directed. Censequently the danger impending over Ministers was proportionately greater than that formerly originating in the attack upon the popular chic ethic of the Foreign D< partment, as the Earl GREY'S diminutive corps of supporters is eclipsed by the " troops of friends" ever attend ant in such emergencies on Viscount PaemeasTorr. Added to the violent hostility evinced throughout last night's debate by the Esrl of Denny, the originator of the discussion, was the deliberate enmity of Lord LIND. HURST ; the indirect support accorded to the argu ine nts of both those Peers by the Duke of NEW CASTLE ; and the earnest encouragement of the assault by the Earl of MALMESBURT. Mean while it must be remembered that Lord CRANWORTH insisted strongly upon the legality of Earl GREY'S proceedings as Colo nial Secretary;, that this opinion was, moreover, mos. cordially coincided in by the' Loan CHANCELLOR bim-elt ; that the Duke of ARGYLL objected to the motion as to one altogether without signification; and that it was with equal emphasis deprecated as ill timed by Lord WHARNCLIFFE. Such were the Peers who participated in he discussion of yesterday, besides the Noble Statesman who himself endea voured to ward off the deadly blows of his antago nists by a maturely-considered and explicit counter statement. From the arguments ad vanced upon both sides it may be perceived what is really the situation of affairs in the Cape Colony, and how far the head of the Colonial Depart ment of the Government is responsible for the diffi culties which have stood in the way of establishing representative institutions in that quarter of our trans-marine possessions. Every feature of the sub ject was yesterday closely examined into by the one or other of the different speakers. So that no doubt can any longer remain in the public mind upon the position of political matters in Cape Town after last night's debate in the Upper House of the Imperial Le gi-lature. Referring to the convict question, to the secession of the four councillors, to the acceptance of their with drawals by the Governor, and to the dispatches of the Cu!niul Secretary, the Esrl of DERBY contrived to make out a very plausible case against her MAJESTY'S Governtnent—plausible, we mean, to all those iudivi duals who have not scrupulously examin-d into the rights of the matter themselves. Insomuch was this the case, that we fi.ed some among our contemporaries designating the speech of the Noble Lord as one cha racterised by its exceeding fairness, although in reality than it no more party speech was ever delivered within the walls of the British Parliament. Other wise than for factious purposes—otherwise than to further the cause of the Opposition—otherwise than to encourage the hopes and foster the interests of the various a'pirants for tbe good things of office, the motion of the Esrl of DEBBY cannot but be regarded as altogether idle and objectless—as was, indeed, observed pleasingly enough in the very sen sible commentaries uttered by his Grace the Duk e o f A RGYLL . A ccor di ng t o tb e op i n i on o f t h e cast-m ent i oned P eer , suc h a mot i on as t h e one intro duced by merely to the Earl of DEBBY was calculated not impair the authority of the Crown in the colony, but must, if carried, necessitate the addition of two or three months to the session for the purpose of enabling Parliame n t t o su pply the Cape with aDO,t er constituti on . Recognising and appreciating these things, it is impossible not to regard both the speech and the motion ce th e N o bl e E ar l t h e l ea d er of the Protectionists as o f a most factious and disin g character. Th e r efore it is that we rejoice the m e o n e u e " cordially in the success obtained by her Ministers over their an t egonists, a success thesl T's Aj nElusrerd ese rved from the integrity of the policy pursued, in this instance, throughout by the N n el e Lord the p, incipal Secretary in the Colonial Depart ment. His defence, last evening, of his own adminis tration, in regard to the Cape colonists, must be re garded 09, perhaps, the most brilliant evidence of his abilities yet afforded since the formation of the pre sent Government. .410. we apprehend, in comprehensive and vigorous The cab-extortion nuisance continues to fl vi o .t u a r h i t s y b : It was only the other day that the Chief Commis sioner of the Metropolitan Police, Mr. MA him self, had to tutntnon an u u j ust Jehu before the ma gisterial tribunal ; an d t h e columns of the daily prints YINE are perpetually furnishing instances of the tyrannous @notions of CAW= mit the street ulyouiDg corn. THS ADELPHI.—Miss Wonlgar will take her bene fit at the Adelphi to-night (Wednesday). The pieces se ected are such as will thoroughly display the great vesatility of her talent. In Holcrott's Road to Ruin she will represent the artless Sophia; she will be the simple Torn Crop in the School for Tigers. and she will shine forth as the audacious daring young lover in the operetta of Good Night, Signor Pantalon. FEE3CII PLATS.—In drawing attention to Mr. Alitchell's benefit, announced fur his evening, we glanly avail ourselves of the occasion to bear testimony to the h gh claims which that gentleman has to the support of the pub lic, for whose amusement be has for many years catered with a degree of spirit and liberality which must rather have a 4 • vanced his fame than his interests. The bitl is a most at tractive one, and consists of Les Boraces, a little one-act piece by Pons +rd. which has had great success in Paris, celled Horace et Lydie and B faut qu'une Porte soit Ouverte ou Feratie.—'limes. VAUXHALL.—The gardens of Vauxhall were yes terday devoted to the benevolent purpose of aiding the funds 'or the relief of the suffers by famine in the Western High. lands and Islands of Scotland. The fête was under the patronage of the Highland Society of London, and the ar rangements were made by Mr. Wardell, proprietor of the place. Everything was satisfactory. During the day Highland pipers, Higuland dancers, and Highland athletes contended in their respective vocations fur prizes, and af fotded C nsiderable amusement. The boys and girls of the Royal Caledonian As) lum mere present, and the juvenile band pl yed many national tunes in the best style. In ad di:ion to these attractions, the usual entertainments in the circus and other parts of the gardens were di , played. The appearaLce of the grounds was altogether gratil)ing, and the number of the company assembled proms d an increase to the funds, which cannot fail of being acceptable. The yr unger visitors enjoyed the various sights with great satis faction. BALL IN AID Or THR WARD SCHOOLS AND ISPENSAKILS 07 TNI CITY OF LONDON.—The ball in aid of the funds ot the Ward Schools and Dispensaries of the city ot London takes place this evening at the Guildhall, which will be fitted up precisely as it was on the occasion of her Majesty's visit. We cannot doubt but that the ball will be a very crowded one, for, independently of the excellence of its object, there can be no doubt but the many who were unable to get a glimp-eof the fittings up and decorations on the occasion of her Majesty's visit will eagerly embrace this opportunity of gratifying their curiosity. UNIVERSITY or LONDON.—The following degrees were yesterday conferred : Master of Arts—Branch I.— Classics— Edward Aldam Leathern, University College. Branch 111. Logic, moral philosophy, ph.losophy of the mind, political philosophy, political economy—Philip Chap man Barker, Spring-hill College, Bachelor of Laws.

ROMISH TOLERATION.—The Government of Aus tria has published a decree prohibiting the use, in public and other schools, of any books that have been written by Pro testants. THE METROPOLITAN WATER SUPPLY COMMITTEE. Yesterday this Committee, Sir James Graham in the chair, met for about its 15th time. Dr. Challis, Mr. Day, brewer, Bermondsey ; Mr. J. L. Tabberner, and Mr. Yates' Freebody, C.E., were examined in support of the ratepayers' cue, and amusingly cross-examined by Mr. James. The Hon. Chairman expressed an opinion, in the course of the proceedings, that the evidence adduced did not tend to sup port the case on behalf of which it was adduced, and that if there were no further evidence to be brought forward by Mr. Vaughan to-d.y, it should be understood that Mr. Sergea t Wrangham should open the case of the companies generally , on Thursday. Upon this understanding the Committee ad journed to this day, the Learned Counsel representing the companies observing that they were very ans ions to proceed with their case, as the cost of their opposition to the Bill could not be less than 1,0 01. a day. THE GREAT EximainoN.—Yesterday the Unire cedentedly large numLer of 74,122 persons visited the Crys tal Palace, and 3,51:91 Bs. was taken in shillings at the doe's.

REPRESENTATION or lIARWICH.—It will be seen by our Pal liamentary report that Mr. Crawford has been unseated upon petition of Mr. Prince'', and that the election has been declared a void one. We uvderstand that Liput..General the Right Hon. Sir Frederick Adam, G.C.B , will receive the appoint. ment of Governor of Malta, together with the command of the troops stationed in that island. Sir Frederick served many years in the Medi errimean, with the army in Sicily, and substiuently, as Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands from which he was removed upon his appoint m e n t i to the bladr.ts Presidency n 1832.—Chronicle.

INIARIIS. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY. TwO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at .0,000 bales, of whi h 600 were taken for export. The market was heavy at previous rates.— Railway Shares were rather firmer. In referring yesterday to the liabilities of Messrs. Rufford, we should have stated them at a quarter of a million sterling. Accounts of March from Port Phillip notice the fact of large subscriptions for the sufferers by the fire at Geelong. Sydney advices to a late date in March state— " In our last we intimated that a Political Association was about to be established in Sydney, and we have now the pleasure of stating that this association has been fairly set on foot, and we most heartily wish it success. " A meeting was held on Monday evening last, at which 17 persons were present, when it was agreed that a society should be then formed, to be called " The Political Associa tion of New South Walt-s." All the persona then present were immediately enrolled as members, and a pro visional committee of seven was appointed for the purpose of framing rules fur the government of the Association. This provisional committee is to continue in existence until fifty members have been enrolled, when a general meeting will be called for the purpose of electing by ballot a committee to manage t e affairs of the Association. It was further agreed that the objects of the Association should for the present be simply as follows: "1 To watch over the civil and religious liberties of the people of New South Wales, and more especially of the citizens of Sydney. And 2—To keep a careful eye on the Legislative Council during the ensuing session ; to watch t eir movements respecting the division of the colony into elec:or,.l districts ; and to see that the W. franchise clause shall not be nullified by any chicanery of the Government. "lhese objects are so simple in themselves. but at the same time so necessary to be sec mplished and worked out for the good of this community, that w e imagine there is scarcely any person who will not fully coincide with them. To en sure the carrying out of these objects in a manner beneficial to the community, we only require to have a good woo king association—one full of life and activity —a practical and not a theoretical body." The Overly d Mail letters have been received, and report rather a dull state of business. The commercial intelligence received from the United States by the Arctic steamer, although two or three days later, is not of much importance. The money market at New York had been rendered less stringent by fresh arrivals of gold from California, and also from the large amount of the precious metal announce to be in transitu. The rate of exchange continued at I .0% 1 , and the export of specie on a large scale was still goi• g on, the Arctic havi' g brought nearly a million of dollars. Further commercial failures are announced by this arrival. i consequence of the decline in the value of Cotton on both sides of the Atlantic, and other firms are mentioned as being likely to succumb, unless t ey are supported by the arrival of specie from Cali fornia, without which aid much disaster is anticipated. The following from the '• Circular " of Meesre. Schroeder and Mummy, dated New Orleans, June 21, and published by Mr. James Irvine, of Liverpool, gives the state of the Cotton Market " Our last Circular,' dated the 7th instant, reported dulness in this market, and declining prices. During the aucceedit:g week the operation.; were, however, very fair for the advanced period of the season, amounting to 18,000 bales, at fluctuating rates; the maraet closing firm. The present week has seen less bu-iness done, owing principally to the absence of important European orders, and the suc ceeding departures of our principal operators, still the sales have reached 8,000 bales, at a currency indicating an im provement of fully cent. per lb., on all grades from even running middling upwards—the lower Sorts being freely offered at former quotations. " Even-running lists of all qualities below fair are not to be met with, and if holders submit to a selection of mid dling, good middling, or middling fair, they obt-in, gene rally, *c. above our quotations. The qualities above mid dling fair, although not to be found in large lots, are generally more even-running, and (being somewhat neglected) on that account comparatively cheaper, but it requires only a little demand to drain our market of all better descriptions. " The stock of Cotton in first hands has now become small and quite manageable, this, with the growing convic tion that the great and steady decline in Europe has been caused more by general distrust than from particular suf ferance in any important branch of trade, must tend, we think, to maintain our, prese. t figures, until more reason able calculations may be formed of the growing crop. The accounts thus far are of a conflicting character, though upon the whole they may be considered favourable; the plant, however, may yet be exposed to many more severe trials than it has hitherto been subiected to this season. " We quote to-day as follows: - Ordinary to good ordinary 610. to 7 yd. ; middling, 8 1 t d. to 8 3 4 d.; good middling, 9 d. to 9.d.; middling fair, 9:j 4 d. to 10d. ; fair, 10 1 ,4 d. to 10 1 /.' 2 d. Sales during the last fortnight, 26,000 bales. Receipts at this port since the let of September, 932,765 bales, against 776,253 bales last year. Increase of receipts at all the ports up to latest dates, 22,540 bales." The Funds have been rather less buoyant this morning. Consols are 96% to 97 for Transfer, and 97 to IA for the August Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 98 to 99. and the Three per Cents. Reduced 97 1 4 to 97 3 %. Bank Stock is at 214 to 215. Exchequer bills are 49a. to 525. premium.

In all kind, ut Hut,s ',be demand is in a very sluggish state, at: barely the late advance ',tithe quotations. Duty, 100,0001. munity. We have known ourselves where, on a very 1 recent occasion, a party was refused to be conveyed from Sloane-square to the foot of Westminster-bridge, on the Surrey side, for a less fare than three shil lings, being one shilling more than the fare from Chelsea Hospital to the Waterloo Station, as given, of course correctly according, to admeasurement, in the tables published by the South-Western :Railway. We may be sure that the cases of overcharge which meet the public eye constitute a very small portion of the " highway robberies" which actually occur. Between unwillingness, on the part of some, to lose time in taking out a summons and appearing against a delinquent, and timidity on that of others, who cower before the thundercloud of charioteering slang, ever prompt to burst in volleys on the head of him or her who recalcitrates against " bleeding freely," these pests of the metropolis, nine times out of ten, get off scot free with the spoils of their audacity, laughing the unhappy grumbler to scorn. If the piratical lord of the whip have a smat tering of classic lure, he may with much self-com placency apply to himself the flattering unction which the miser in Horace layeth to his soul, "Populus me Sibiu t, at mihi plaudo, IpsY comi, aimul ac nuracsoa cuutemplor in arch" . _ Should any yokel take it into his head, that in a city enjoying such a large and efficient police as the capital undoubtedly does, he will be taken per cab any distance required, with an adherence to the printed tariff of fares, let him, at the end of his ride, tender the precise amount, or bold out some larger coin in the expectation of the accurate balance being banded over, which, not forthcoming, he may gently hint at a rightful settlement of accounts ; and if NEMESIS does not descend upon him in the form of a shower of courteous and complimentary expressions, he must assuredly have fallen upon a phenomenon among the fraternity. We have seen several suggestions promulgated on this subject, especially in the culumns of a morning contemporary, who gave two or three powerful hits at the system ; but the iniquity is too compact and mighty to be overthrown by desultory attacks. One remedy might, in our opinion, be ap plied with a considerable degree of advantage, and that is an alteration of the existing fares. Who ever dreams of offering " eightpence," or " one-and fourpence," or such fractional parts of " the whole hog ?" Let the fare be simply at the rate of sixpence a mile, throwing half miles altogether out of account. Many a person wishing to ride a mile would wil lingly take a sixpennyworth where he is now unwil ling to spend a shilling for the purpose. The present shilling fare would be, under this system, a shilling still ; one-and fourpence would be superseded by a shilling; one• and- eightpence and two shillings by one and sixpence; two-and-fourpence and two-and-eight pence by two shillings, and so on. Mode rate fares, paid thus in what we term round sums, would increase the number of cab-patronizers very considerably, and we firmly be lieve prove in the long run a source of increased emo• lument to the proprietors and drivers themselves. We would not have a man compelled to overweight his vehicle, or anything like it. The above proposition does not go beyond the freight of a cargo of two adults and a child on the knee. Any additional in dividual ought to be charged extra, say at the rate of sixpence not exceeding two miles, and a shilling if above that distance. Moreover, as those who love "to fly by night," when other people are in their quiet beds, should bethink them, that night-work constitutes a large ingredient in the wear and tear of man and horse, let midnight revellers, even as many of them are prone to see double, be taken as counting double, and a double fare be charge able between twelve at night and five or six o'clock in the morning. If some such sort of regulations as these we have thrown out were uniformly adopted, and strictly enforced on the terminal cabstand* at Euston-square, King's- cross, Shoreditch, London bridge, Waterloo-road, and Paddington, by the several railway companies, the root of the present crying evil of overcharge would be struck at, and a substantial convenience and comfort rendered to the community. lkiE SHARE MARKETS ZINITUIR RAIVVVILYIII.

MARLBRO'-STREEF-(THIS DAY) " A GENT."—Hurby Trammell, gentleman,4, Hereford- square, ihonsp‘on, was cuarged before Mr. Hardwick with being drunk and disord, rly. Inspector Monckton, C division, stated that about four o'clock this morning he was in the Haymarket, when he saw the defendant, who was very drunk, and four others, come out of the Wtverford Arms wine rooms. Dirrcily they got into the street they coal• menced creating a great disturbance, to the annoyance of the inhabitants. He desu,d them to dreperse quietly ; the prisoner's companions obeyed his order, but the defendant behaved in such a ()Noy:lt-fly manner, and persisted in remaining where ho was, that witness was compelled to convey him to the station-house. The defendant, who did not deny the charge, was fined 104. ROBBERY.—Mary Ann Ross, cook in the service of Madame Geilandat, Duke -street, Grosvenor. square, was charged on suspicion of having stolen eight 101. notes, the property of M. le Comte Groupelli, an attach to the Sardinian Legati , n. _ _ Madame Gellandat deposed that the Count occupied apartments in her house. Last night, about 12 o'clock, she and her family retired to rt st, leaving the prisoner in the kitchen, weere she slept. In about an hour after she (witness) had been in bed, she was alarmed by hear ing the street coor close with tare :t violence. She got up and proceeded down stairs, but not seeing anyone she went to the kitchen and knocked at the door. Receiving no answer she opened ithe door, and saw the prisoner, who was partly undressed, lying on the bed apparently asleep, a candle was hurtling in the room, which was contrary to the rules of the house. She woke up the prisoner, and asked her whether she had been out, and on her roply leg in the stl mative abw (witness) fat her and went upstairs to her room. Before entering the latter she went into a room close by that occupied by the Count, and on looking about, saw a box which she knew belonged to th e C oun t op e n in the room. Suspecting that something was wrong she ularmt d the house, and just at that time the Count, who had been out, returned, and on looking over +he contents of the box missed eight 101. notes. The prisoner, who vr , is at once suspected to be the thief, was then gise n in charge. Couet Julius Groupelli proved that, previous to his leaving Ms longings last evening, he saw the whole of the notes safe in his box in his bed-room. He did not place the box where it was round, neither did he at present know the number of the notes. The prisoner, who protested . her innocence, was re manded for a wef k. t * ti r ‘ tttO STAMFORD RACES. (THIS DAV.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) The Three Years Old Stmkee.

LAUNCH C•F THE PARANC—SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 15.—The West India mail s eam-ship Parana. of 2,250 tons, was launched shortly after noon to-day from the building yard of Messrs. Wigram and Sons, at Northam, near South ampton. A description et this fine ship is unnecessaey, inas mach as she resembles in every respect, both in size and. powe , the three steam-ships Oronoco, Amazon, and Magda lena, recently launched in the. Thames. The Royal Mail Steam Packet Company have now tour out of five of their new steam fleet in the water. The last ship, the Demerara, bu lding at Bristol, will shortly be sent oft the stocks. The Parana will be copp , tred in the Southampton Graving Docks, and is to be afterwards towed round to Greenock to receive her engines and boilers, which are being constructed by Messrs. Caird and Co., of that place. THE TOWL,R OF LONDON MUCH MORE TO SIGHT SEERS MAN MIRE ARMOUR AND REGALIA.— Every inch of the Tower walls is tied to a story—is an evidence in history. If its Roman connexion be fabulous, here, at all events, was a Saxon stronghold, and here is a Norman castle. At sight of these architecturally much-abused walls what names and recolleaions rise! this palace, piton, and fortress, " the very germ of London," as Charles Knight calls it, is, in truth, the earl) history of England, written on stone, and in terspersed, may we say, with many " cuts on wood." Visitors should not forget Traitors' Gate -" that gate misnamed, through w hich before Went Sidney, Russell, Raleigh. Cranmer, More;" or the little Church of St. Peter ad Vaieula, where lies Anne Boleyn, with many other noble sufferers; or the Beauehamp Tower, with its singularly interesting records of some who were imprisoned there, cut in the stone walls. This latter will be seen on the west side of the open space beside the keep, or what used to be called "the Green beside the Chapel within the Tower," and is now the officers mess room. To view this permission must be obtained, but this will not be found difficult. Many of the inscriptions are full of interest, none more so to us than the simple word " JANE," which, if not written by the unto turiate Lady J ane Grey herself, probably was by her husband, Guilf or d. The present mess-master is apt and obliging in describing the most important of these " trivial fond records," but be is in error in pointing out the date to the inscription signed "William Tyrrel." as " 1241, the earliest inscription here." It is 1541. The Builder. THE BALLOON ASCNNT FROM TEE CHINESE JUNK THAT DID " NOT" TAKE PLACE.—An amusing hoax was on Monde, night played on the sight. seeing a , d won d er -loving citizens of Cockaigne. For some days past large pl a cards announced for that night a balloon asce n t f rom the Chinese Junk, lying in the river, with the further tempting novelty, as the bills had it. of "Aladdin's Aerial Palac ," to be dis played from the car.

THE INCOMES OF THE BISHOPS (From the Times.) As a suitable preface to the qaes,lons which he has propounded to the Frime Minister, Sir Benjamin Hall has obtained a return riving a history of the doings of the Ecclesiastical Commission for the two septennial periods into which its existence is divided. We are now able in some measure to estimate the degree of their success in the object wbich they had in view—the equalizing the incomes of the different ems by applying the revenues of the larger to meet the deficiency of the smaller. They did not, indeed, aim at an exact equalitle since they allowed the Archbishop of Canterbury 15,0001. a year, the Archbishop of York and the Bishop el Len' don 10,000/. a year, and the remening bishops sums vary leg between 4,2001. and 5,000/. Of course the Commission had no authority to interfere with vested rights, and it would be, therefore, unfair to cite against them the fact, that the income of the Bishop of Leneon for the last. three years has been in round num" hers 24,0001., 19,000 L, and 20,0001. respectively, whi le the less fortunate Bishop of Exeter has received during the same period 3,0001., 1,5001., and 2,000/. But we may fairly take the case of the Bishop of Durham, who re ceived his bishopric in the days ot reform, and who, after paying to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners 11.2001. ayear. has received in 1848 23 0001., in 1849 9,000/. zed In 1850, 27 0001 . Ia these cases we h a ve the two pe l e ° l the zenith and nadir. of the episcopal system, end are fairly authorised in concluding that, notwith standing the Ecclesiastical Commission is now entering on the third lustre of its labours, son3etbieg is yet wanting towards that equi , able equate,' which it was its object to establish. Chester receives 550/., Chichester 6501., St. David's 1,60 01 e Hereford 1,0001., Lichfield 850/, Llandaff 3 1501., M 5 U ; cheater 4,2001., Oxforo 3.500/, Peterborough 1,1501.9'T Rochester 3 750/., in supplement of their incomes, wh ile Exeter antione ur two other bishopric.] nearly as po or are left unendewed. Several bishoprics —as for instant Salisbury, Worcester,Norwich. sled Ely, are allowed veil consisecubly to exceed the reductions fixed upon by the Commissioners without any attempt to equalize theca' We are not now considering whether the principle upon which the Ecclesiastical Commission proposed to re d . gulats the incomes of the bishops was a goo ant, but are only pointing out how utterly it ne' . failed in the working. The Bishop of Durbs°' who ought last year to have received 8,0004 ref ceived 27,0001.; the Bi s hop of E xe t er , who °Ws" to have received, we presum e , a t l east 4,200/ , receive u under 2 Mot, or less than one thirteenth part of the in' come of his more fortunate brother. The plan tiP u which the Commission has proceeded appears to us pe e. liarly uulertunate, and must have the effect of exhibet° ing many members of the right reverend bench in light most eminently unde.irable. A prospective charg e upon the revenues ot any see seems generally to hol e t been met in a spirit of vicarious liberality, but the re° determined resistance is offered to any attempt to reduce the income of the see in the hands of the present inctite . bent to the amount on the faith of receiving which b e accepted it. We select, as an instance ot the cutlee at a in which a bishop can c o nde s c e nd to Ni g gle ' 1 ; perpetuation of an income far larger than that ' , h ir . he had any hgal or moral right to, the case o' i"" Bishop of Woicesrer. The income of the Bishop of Wee; rester was fixed by the Ecclesia s tical C o mmissioners e` 5,000/ a-year. Now, the average of this see for the slit veers ending in 1835 was 7.643/. thus leaving a, surplus ° 0 2.6431. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners, by an order to 1837, fixed the pa) went on this Bee for the eillargegeel ot smaller bishopric s a t th e ver y mo d era t e sum of 2.30 i r; a-year. FM. the seven years ending in 1843 W., average of the income of the bi s h o p r i c was Pretty nearly the same as for the pr ece di ng six. Unde r ,:„ these rather unpromi s i ng c i rcums t ances the BidPs2; of Worcester memoraliz e d th e C omm i ss ion e r s for ducti• n of the charge upon his bishopric from 2,300 1 . I' 1,500/.; he corifidelaily states his opinion that the bishopric will not continue to yield the suns at which it is esti* mated, expresses his utter inability to pay it, and forms the Commissioners that such a payment. claimed, could only b e r e cov e r e d by leg a l p roces s. is, as his Lord s hip explains, to obviate all mistake e l to his meaning, jud gmen t an d execu ti on . I n su pport `"; his prayer i s auduced the opinion of his brother, Lo t " Cottennann to the eff. ct th a t th e or d er i m p os i ng t he rent' charge upon the see of Worcester is invalid in le' The Commissioners eppoi n t e d a comm i ttee , on wilt" sat the Bishops of London, Durham, and Herefordi and they, by no means at.palled by the opinion e s the ex-Chancellor in favour of his br o th e r, reporte d against the Bishop's claim. On this the Bishop of W or e cester gave notice o f a mo ti on to b e ma d e b y hi m in t i , - Ecclesiastical Commission , to the eff, ct that the re e l charge on his see was calculated on erroneous data, s e t , ought to be reduced to 1.600/. per annum, a proposiele.., on which it never seems to have occurred to b l _r that he as a party int e re s ted was incompetent to deciu e ' Luckily the Bishop abstained from this discreditable P l l 7 cedure, and the re su lt w a s th at t h e c h arge was co nfirme d ' minus 100/. taken o ff on the ground of a clerical e rror. Of course, our readers will suppose that the average of the [text seven y ears fully bore out the aptreheneions of tb Bishop, and justified him, in spite of the contradict i l afforded by the income of thirteeu successive years, in 11 9 0 only in his brother to be judge in his cause, but I n the attempt to adjudicate upon it himself. It is consultug ty those whose apprehension. may have been excited bi o these gloomy prophecies to know that for 61 1 eevn years concluding 1850 the income of the Bishop f e Word star has exceeded 9,000/. so that, after paying IP A I much-disputed rentcharge or 2 300/. he receives, 01 , and above the 5,000/. designed for him, 1,7001., or nes, ll as leech as the income of his br o th e r of E xeter . V ° have now an average of 20 years of the see of WO: cester, which raises the income considerably abee' 8,000/. The Bishop has lIQ claim to one shilling 000 5,000/., and yet he con s id ers hi mse lf d eep l y i n j u r e d b j e : cause he has been obliged to cont r ib ute a s um tower the augmentation of p oo r e r bi s h o p r i cs w hi c h o nly elie,., ,m g him 7001. a year mor e than he o u g ht to receive. not only have the proceedings of the Ecclesiastical Cele; mission been unfortunate in developing an avidity eft!. the perishable things of this world exactly proportions j to the superabundance in which they are distribut e among the teachers of our faith; it has also, singelle" enough, called several bishops as witnesses against theta ; selves. The Bishop of Durham considers 8 0001 P I annum a sufficient remuneration fpr the future ineuer bent of his princely see, )et be received in 1847, 19,000er and, in 1850, 18 0001. more than that sum. The Biel of Winchester is content that the Biehope of Wincbest e : his successors, shall receive 7,0001, for which sum of opinion that a prelate can be obtained worthy to di; i charge the duties ot' his see; yet for the last seven ye L, he has been in the receipt of an income exceeding WI sum by an amount in Init case less team 2,000/., reaching, last year, 28,0001., or four times the Tee ample salary which be destines for his successor. Bishop of London pockets 20,000/. a year, wWch, by 7is ~ own admission, is 10 000/. more than is requ:red. then, the end and aim of life the accumulation of mon e y Is there such au utter dearth of objects on which to er ercise her activity that our Church is obliged to squae f l ei, , her resources tin adding surplus to supetfluity, and gtr ing more to those who, by their own confession, he / 0 already so vastly too much? Something we hear of to n'cessity of church extension, something of the noses' . city of reliving the craving wants of the working clergy in remote districts, something of the increasing dons _ for religious education. The laity are continually call ed upon to contribute to these objects, but where are Or hundreds of thousands which the Church could coati .° burn after making provision for the decent and of effluent maintenance of her rulers? They are to traced into the hands of those who are fortunate enoug l to inherit the gains of men succeeding to the episooll, office, often with but sl en d er means, an d l eav i ng to the:, descendants a splendid i n h er i tance accumu l ate d frail funds of the Church.
