Mr. MACOREG At believed that the great mass of the people of Scotland approved of the measure, and he should therefore support it. Mr. COWAN supported the BilL Mr. CHARTERIS opposed it. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that this Bill did net propose to separate secular from religious instruction. Its pur pose was to enable the Free Church and the United Presbyterians to join with the Established Church in the management of schools. Sir J. CLERK and Mr. Scorr opposed the Bill. Lord MELGUND replied, and The House divided, when there appeared- For the amendment For the second reading Majority The Bill was consequently lost.

A.D. 1851 ; will henceforward be celebrated (stigmatized might be the more correct phrase) as the period of legis lative inaction—the do-nothing year. Every ques tion, with the one solitary exception, is treated with the most contemptuous disregard. Except on Govern ment nights, Houses can scarcely be formed or kept to gether. Topics of the deepest interest and the utmost importance to the welfare and prosperity of the country cannot attract an audience, and it is not too much to say, that one-half of that portion of the session which has already elapsed has been uselessly squandered away through a too rigid observance of the rules, more particularly those relating to the adjournment of debates, and the breaking up of the House if forty Members be not present at any particular time, when a scrutiny into the Members in attendance is demanded. As we have already frequently explained, these regulations were established ter the purpose of pre venting measures of real importance from being car ried in a ha,ty and inconsiderate manner, and without full time being allowed for discussion, or by a swell 2113(1 insignificant minority in the absence of the great majority. It temperately and judiciously, re sorted to, the privilege allowed to the minority was of a very valuable character. But it has been strangely perver - ed from its original purpose, and carried to such an extent that the remedy has become far worse than i the original disease. It was very proper that a minority ahould be protected against an abuse of power by a tyrannical majority ; but the character of the evil has completely altered. It is the majority that' re quire protection against the proceedings of a factious minority, who with a reckless disregard of public opinion adopt a course wholly unprecedented and un warranted. They are thereby enabled to annoy and delay the proceedings of their 'op nents, although they cannot possibly hope to succeed in their struggle. They are well aware that they must eventually be defeated, and that they are inflicting serious injury upon the inhabitants of the United Kingdom in general, but more especially upon their own countrymen, by stopping all progress and pre. venting any new enactments from being carried, except those mere formal measures which cannot be dizpensed with. But they persist in the line o policy they had adopted, not perceiving that, to certain extent, they are playing the Ministerial gain in preventing the introduction of subjelct that might not be very acceptable to ih Cabinet, and affording a valid excuse for any Mi terial failures during the Parliamentary campaig. 1851. On Tuesday evening the House again separated without doing anything, in consequence of 28 Mem bers only being in attendance when the SPBAIEBR was about to take the chair. The result would have been very different if even the Hon. Gentlemen who bad notices on the paper had been in attendance. There is an old adage, however, " that what's everybody's business is nobody's business," and as it was a duty that devolved equally upon every Member it is scarcely surprising that the required num b ers were not forthcoming. Indeed, it frequently requires all the powers of the Ministerial whipper-in, by persua sion as well as by coercion, to collect the fortid No private Member can, however, accomplish the task, unless a party question be on the tapis, and the result is that many valuable days are lost through " counting out" the House. Ministers, haw ever, have hitherto supported these "countings out" as convenient modes of getting rid of inconvenient questions, and extinguishing the rising eloquence of some enthusiastic Member. Ru mour bath it that the patronsge Secretary of the Treasury occasionally changes his functions, and, in place of being a whipper-in, becomes a whipper -out. This, however, is but a short-sighted policy, for the persons thus deprived of the power of bringing for ward the grievances of which they complain in the ordinary course, will avail themselves of their unquestionable privilege of anticipating the Cio vernment on Supply nights. A double por tion of time is thus consumed. Hence the numerous sacrifices perpetrated at the " An. null Massacre of the Innocent:.," and the emas culation of other measures through the want of time to discuss proposed changes which cannot be co:age dared amendments. A Special Committee some time since inquired into these various rules, with a view to their reversion, and had the benefit of the Right Honourable Gentleman who so worthily fills the chair of the House, and who is, perhaps, more competent to speak respecting the inconveniences arising from these rules, and the necessity for their mo dification, than any other person that could be produced. Nothing, however, has since been done, and we are now reaping the fruits of our ,apathy and carelessness in the unparalleled waste of time during the present session. Whatever differences of opinion may heretofore have existed respecting the propriety of introducing some regulation analogous to La Cloture must be completely removed by the conduot of the " Irish party," who have also furnished sufficient reasons for removing the power of renew the motions for adjournment until a sufficient interval has elapsed to afford a reasonable expectation that the opinion of the ma jority on the subject had been changed. The non attendance of forty Members should also be made a ground for suspending the proceedings until the ne cessary number be present, and not for breaking up the sitting. If these rules were ameliorated, so as to prevent further waste of time, and the Special Com mittee on the Property and Income-tax, which was voted a month since, but has not yet been nominated, should make a proper report on the important matter committed to their charge, we should not consider the session of 1851 altogether wasted, although there Would be but trifling additions to the national statute , book. After -esse.... the melancholy failure of the motion made are b to the succesa y accor ding to a nnua l custom by the Hon. Member for we t f t ? o ld n i n in ref no reference to the c ause o f nat i onal educe means disposed t o b e sangu i ne as of a simil ar of any effort just now i n furtherance we are enlightenm en t. N evertheless, pre projec pared upon all oc • most discouraging circumstances easi"si and under the h , to welcome with cordiality every endeavour, less, is hich may be advenzeciver apparently hope upon in regard to these long looked-for innovations. The improvement is too desirable to adtnit of trifling with in the slightest particular. Therefereit is that weareaolicitous at all times to go out of our way in order to direct public attention to any undertaking of a character like the one intimated, no matter what the guise it itself on its appearance. may select for Under the party or of that, of this religion auspices of this the other, secular education is always to be hailed as a boon of the most inestimable value. "Come what come may," this must ev er remain a guiding principl e with ourselves until we see in some measure realized the majority of our educational aspirations. It is, therefore, not without certain sentiments of complacency that we view the proceedings which ,took place yesterday in the Central School Room at Westminster. Our feelings of satisfaction in the present instance, it must be allowed, are attributable to the reflection that these proceedings will provoke inquiry i n the public mind rather than assist in any material manner in the spread of information among the multitude. Such at lit are our impressions in regard to the probable influence of the - National Society for Promoting the Education of the Poor. This, moreover, we may remark, is an opinion which may be uttered without anything like disparagement of the labours, or of the general efficiency of the association. For, ac cording to a very generally received belief, and one the reasonableness of which must be apparent to the most mediocre capacity, no scheme can by possibility be adequate as a means of affording education to the masses which has not immediately emanated from, or received the patronage of, the Supreme Government. Individual efforts are all well enough as methods of bringing about certain local or provincial improve ments; but it is altogether frivolous to imagine for an instant that they can prove sufficient as a mode of diffusing knowledge over the whole surface of the population. Consequently, whatever may be the success achieved by the society already particularised, it must inevitably turn out to be inoperative as a plan for the dissipation of popular ignorance. Reformers of all times and of all classes have had to battle with difficalties as numerous, and at starting as apparently insurmountable as those which have in terrupted the progress of the advocates of national education. It behoves them, therefore, to be in no way discouraged by their repeated failures both outside the walls of the Parliament and in the bosom of the Imperial Legislature. Free-trade doc trines were ultimately triumphant over the doctrines of Protection, notwithstanding the annual defeats encountered by the Hon. CHARLES PELHAM VII, LIERS : and Catholic Emancipation was at length obtained in spite of the defeats endured again and again by DANIEL O'Cosisteen and his adherents. It will be well consequently if the Member for Oldham will bear continually in remembrance the pertinacity displayed against all kinds of opposition both by the Liberator and by the Representative of Wolverhampton. So soon as the measure of the evil has been tasted to the dregs, so soon, but no sooner, will the constituted authorities consent to their removal. Delayed the anticipated moment of change may be beyond all conceivable conjecture, but arrive it will in the end as by an infallible necessity, the most obdurate antagonism yielding at length to the force of a firm and conscientious per severance. An implicit confidence in this is the secret upon which the ulterior victory of all re formers is principally dependent. Mr. Fox should, consequently, cherish it perpetually in his heart as a consolation under every disappointment, and as an as surance of his tardy but inevitable success as a pro moter of enlightenment. A circumstance which tended, of course, to lend an air of importance to the meeting which took place yes terday, in Westminster, was the attendance (as chair man) of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY. Under the auspices of the Venerable Primate of the Established Church of England, the discussion was conducted with an appearance of sobriety and earnestness in the highest degree satisfactory. This may be recog nised, despite one or two momentary interruptions by reference to the remarks delivered upon the occa sion by the reverend and honourable speakers. The fact here notified cannot but be viewed as more than ever encouraging, taking place, as the assemblage did so very speedily after the decided defeat of Mr. Fox's motion on the subject of education. Occur e ring, moreover, as it did, in the vicinity of that palace a of the Legislatur e w hi c h h a d so recently witnessed this disheartening, though not ignominious defeat, it te could not but be especially gratifying to all sincere ;s promoters of the caus e who happen to be residents within the boundaries of the city of Westminster. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. In. the Legislative Assembly on Tuesday a discus sion arose on th e su bj ec t of theEsinENT , s speech at Dijon. Aft e r th e usua l b us i ness ,h a d b een dis posed of, the President, M. Duns, made the following announcement : The President—M. Desmousseaux de Givr‘ de mands permission to put questions to the Minister !of the Interior, relative to the speech of the President of the Republic at Dijon. What day will the Hon. Minister fix for them? M. Leon Faucher, the Minister of the Interior—Let them come on immediately. M. Desmousseaux de Givat—l congratulate my self on having proposed the interpellations, for the promptness with which the Minister accepts them proves to me that there is no truth in what has been said of there having been a phrase in the speech insulting to the Assembly. The speech of General Changarnier, which has been so well understood by the Assembly, and which will also be so by the country—(+iiear, hear) —has furnished the Minister with an opportunity of declaring that there is neither motive nor pretext for calumniating the Assembly; but, if in fact the Presi dent did deliver the phrase which I have before me, it would be a grave attack on the dignity of the Assembly. In pry aereee of the deciarations of the Hon. Minister, I wuhdtaw my demanu for interpellations. I will now add a tew words— The President—You say you withdraw your demand and ye t y Liu continue. M. Desmousseaux de Givi 6—l shall only speak on the order of the day, and I requett the Assembly to occupy itselt with a proposition which I presented some time siece.—(leterruption.) The Prelloent—lt is an establisl'ed fact that the members of the Bureau have no official character out of this Chamber.—(Agitation and exclamations.) M. Piscutory —I do not intend to examine the ques. Lion as to whether the interpellations are useful or op portune, but when once the question is raised it ought to be settled. It is not sufficient that the Minister de dares that there was nothing meant by the phrase which was said to have been delivered, but he ought to tell us whether or no it was delivered. I therefore ask the Minister of the Interior positively whether or no it was the case? (The Minister made no reply.) For want of an answer I shall address myself to several of my Hon. Cullealc ees — The Preside -et—You have no right to do so. M. Piscseory—The Hon. President tells me I have no right, bat I will remark that the question regards the dignity of the Assembly, .and I declare that if I had :heard anything offensive used either against the Go vernment or the Assembly, I would frankly declare it. The Minister of the Interior, with great emphasis— The Government recognizes no other text of the speech delivered by the President of the Republic then that in serted in the Illoniteur. M. Desmousseaux de Givrt—lt is then, understood that the phrase which I have now before me, and which says, "The Assembly has given me its co-operation in every measure of repression, but has failed me in all the measures which I have conceived for the interest of the people"—it is agreed, a l say, that no one delivered this phrase.—(Laughter and agitation.) M. Piscatory—l am glad that I resumed the interpel lations, for, after the reply of the Government, the phrase must be considered as null, or that, if it was de livered, it is withdrawn, or that the id ea o f i t i s retracted by the Gover n ment.—(Bear, hear.) We do not in this matter obey any party feeling. We do not wish either directly or indirectly to attack the Government for a party object. When the Ministers who were at Dijon affirm that the phrase which excited the susceptibility of so many Representatives does not exist we are bound to believe them. There is now only one way of ter minating this discussion with dignity, and that is to pass at once to the order of the day. That is the only coarse, firm, politic, and honou ra bl e , t h at we can follow. The order of the day was then put to the vote and adopted. A Voice on the Left—lt is a shameful termination.— (Noise.) The Assembly rose in considerable agitation at six o'clock. The National thus comments on the attempt of M. Durex to stifle discussion on the PRESIDENT'a speech : " The National Assembly, according to the Constitu tion, is the first power of the State. The President of the Assembly is the representative of the sovereign power. The majority decided that this high place should be confided to M. Dupin, and it had yesterday an example of the courage and dignity which the homme d'alaires of the Orleans dynasty exhibits in the exercise of his high functions. MM. Piscatory and Desmousseaux de Givi a declare in the tribune that an insult and a calumny had been addressed, on a solemn occa sion, to the Assembly, in presence of its President, two of its Viet-Presidents, and several of its Mem bers. The President, of course, will either contra dict the assertion, or will announce that he protested against that insult and calumny. No, he perpe trates a joke ; M. Dtimoubaeaux de Give: says he, ' declares that be Oyes up his interpellations, and at the seems time he goes on with them.' But the Assembly bad no desire to laugh; and then M. Dupin, in order to put down the discussion, hastened to declare that the the to _ Assembly reprt sentatives and the President of the Assembly were preaent at Dijon as simple spectators, and without any character. Tee COCClUbiutt to be drawn is, that athreeroo.t opinion tibrastult has nothing to do with the insults offered M Itupin. Agreed, M. Dupin; we should take but little notic e of • thus offereduntr ytooyikoeuusp,ecrasorensallliyu,leanadbowue, But when in an official banque t you are placed next to the President of the Itsp üblic, it is not which betrayed F r t a o nc t e he in the old Deputy of the Chamber without doubt to Acheto, n ot family that homage i the Assembly that consideration 1815, not to the man of .procureur of the Orleans a r id,. it is to the President of ever reckoned on your , coura ge , eation is manifested. No one being astonished at your silence no one ever thought of at the banquet of Dijon, but do not endeavour to justif pretatien the humble attitudeyee b yieuhnniuitabl? asking ou to account for. The n o one thinks of inter let it t hi n k of this, that in the circumstances which w Ass embly i interrupted e by its murmurs the strange argument of M. Dupin; but THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING JUNE 5, 1851. arc placed it ought to find some independence and firm ness in the repre , entative to whom it confides the care of watching over its honour and its security. M. Dupin proved yesterday to those who were before ignorant of it, that he will be able to find arguments to justify all his weakness. At the end of the sitting, M. Dupin ob tained the recompense of his silence at Dijon, and of his demeanour in the Assembly, for M. Fialin (de Persigny) affectionately took possession of his arm, and accompa nied him out of the Assembly." BUSINESS`DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, Juin: 4.

" Your confidence, your ready coming forward, will materially advance the work, and the reception which I have met with in your boundaries confirms my hopes. "It is, however, with deep sorrow that I have re marked here and there on my tour through this other wise highly-favourtd country, th• still want of respect !'or property, continued mistrust, and mutual enmity of the different nationalities, the consequences of the revo lution and civil wars, which are still slumbering, and retarding the healing of the wounds inflicted. " It will, therefore, be my first duty to procure once more the inviolable respect for the laws, the long-looked for peace and order for the country, and for every in dividual the security to which he is entitled. " The Government is most earnestly striving, with a conscientious regard to every nationality, to promote the welfare of these Crown lands in the interest of this united empire. I should, therefore, be compelled to treat with the most inflexible severity any one who would presume to disseminate mistrust against the acts of the Government, or who would under any pretence whatso ever excite dissatisfaction and disturbances.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 7,000 bales, of which 1,000 were taken for ex port and 500 on speculation. The sales comprised about 6,000 American, 200 Pernam and Maranham at 64d. to Id., 100 Bahia at 6td. to 60., 200 Egyptian at 7d. to ald., and 400 Surat at 3fd. to -lid. per lb. The mar ket was steady, but chimed heavily.—Railway Shares were quiet. To complete the shipping statistics:of the United King dom, given in part yesterday, an analysis of the re turn concerning the vesuels employed in the coastieg trade may be given. The entries inwards during the month to May 5 were 1,016,557 tons against 1,056,596 tons in 1850. The eleeirances outwards may be thus arranged:— Month. 1J350. 1851. Four months. 1850. 1851. Employed in the inter course between Great Britain and Ireland 166.:203 198,484 702,454 800,5 Other coasting vessels 918,965 896,469 3,478,083 3,495,i --- Total 1,105,148 1,094,953 4,180,537 4,296,331 The Arctic steamer has arrived from the United States with a further larga, amount of bullion and ad •ices of the 24th ult. Cott on was dull, and in flour not much was doing. Respecting the dry-goods' mar ket, it is reported from New York that the total value of foreign dry goods put upon the market during the past week was only 439,91:,1 dolls. No one can com plain of that importation. A few weeks of such inac tivity in this trade would re duce the monthly average very materially. The limiter f quantity of goods arriving may have a favourable effect ou prices, and such a re sult is roost desirable. Th a. import trade this season has by no means been pros•p erous, but the losses have been pretty well distributed .at home and abroad. The Californian accounts ,by this opportunity are in teresting. From the San Jo again ♦alley it is stated, " The effect of the late rains has been of the most favourable character. The gulches in the mountain have been well filled, and a gentleman just from James town says that miners who could not make 3 dolls. a day by packing the dirt, are :ROW earning from 8 dolls. to 20 dolls. Ho says that each shower was worth a million of dollars. " The grass and other crops on the plain wear a very luxuriant appearance. Miming, trade, crops, all are looking up.' " The recent reports from S alnaon Creek and Klamath River were more favourable. The miners are of the opinion that as soon as the redny season is over, they can average 20 dolls. to 30 dolls..pi3r day. " A lump of pure gold, taken from Salmon Creek, which is now in the hands of 31. G. Dow, who came pas senger in the _General We ti en, weighed twenty-six ounces. " Provisions at the mines are said to be scarce and high. Snow is still deep in th e mountains." Parties who write from Chu gres, under date of May 5, describe it as being a dirty and unhealthy, though a busy town. The accounts from Mexico describe General Arista as acting with great energy, and as being disposed to carry out an improved system of fin a nce, according to Esteva's recommendations. In fact, it is asserted, that the Pre sident will attend to these mat tars himself hereafter. The Amsterdam market on the 3d inst. was much the same as regards prices, Dutch. Bonds being in request. The Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were 57i to 15-16. Accounts have been received at Lloyd's to-day, stating that the Neptune stee 1 ner, from London to St. Petersburg'', was on shore (n I. the Swineboden, near Hullen, on the lit inst., with , ai x feet water in her hold. The cargo consisted of India o, bale goods, &c., esti mated at 40,0004 principally' insured at Lloyd's at a low premium. There is a very quiet mark.e t for English Stocks, but prices are firm. Consols have been 97i to 98 for Trans fer and Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realised 98f to end the Three per Cents. 97i I. Bank Stock is at 211. t. Exchequer -bills have improved to 445. and 455. prenal um. Foreign Securities have beers very variable. Mexican have fallen to 34i and 34, on a report, as usual from New York, of a loan being int( ided, but which deserves no credence. Peruvian have risen to 86 and 87.

J . S . M ans fi e ld formerly of the northern circuit, to Sir George Grey, as the successor of the late Mr. Rushton, at the salary of 1,0001. a year. Two courts are to be established under the same roof, over one of which the mayor and honorary magistrates will preside. It was proposed th a t t h e name of Mr. Blair, a JP' verpool barrister of come standing, should be coupled with that of Mr. Mansfield in the recommendation to the Secretary of State, but this was overruled by a majority of 40 to 10. Mr. Rushton, the late stipendiary, enjoyed a salary of 1,600/, but he transacted the whole of the business, without the assistance of a second court.

This case was resumed this morning. The suit We s to set aside a covenant made in June, 1808, by the late Dr. King, prebendary of Wivelescombe, in Somerset• shire, and afterwards Bishop of Rochester, of a p o rtion of the preb en d ary estates, for the alleged purp P L r e ol} applying the proceeds in redemption of the land-tat ; but which was, in fact, a sale by Dr. King to his bro' ther, in trust for himself. Dr. King died in 1827. T he Rev. Mr. Keene, one of the defendants, was a prober dary from 1827 to 1833 ; and in the latter yea r the plaintiff; who is the present prebendary, was appointed. The defendants are the personal representatives of the late Dr. King. Mr. Bethel], Dlr. Roll, and Mr. Bazalete appeared for the plaintiffs ; and Sir F. K e ll y , M r. Maline, Mr. J a mes Parker, and Mr. Heberden for the defendants., SHERIFFS' COURT.—(THIS DAY•) The cases during the morning were on bills of es' change, undefended, and not of the slightest interest. (THIS DAY.) J. Linstead, a journeyman tailor, IV. Lewis, a private in the Coldstream Guards, and Benjamin Swan. 5 chimney sweeper, were charged with robbing a young man named Bruce of the sum of 19s. 6d. It appeared that the prosecutor and a young women were drinking at the bar of a public-house in Westmin ster, and prosecutor took the silver out of his pocket to pay, when a soldier, who was in company with several others present, struck him on the arm, and knocked the money out of his hand. The soldier did not stoop to take up any of th e money, b ut the others round him scrambled for it, and ran away from the house. The prosecutor gave the three prisoners afterwards into custody. Lew - is, who wore a good-conduct mark, denied that he was in the house that evening at any time, and his sergeant was present to give him a character; where• upon The JUDGE remarked that this was the first time ha had ever seen in the dock a soldier with that chevran upon his arm. Linstead admitted that he was present at the scram ble, but took no part in it. A witness stated that the soldier concerned in the " lark" had his buttons down the coat front in an un broken row, being of the Ist Regiment, whereas the pri soner, Lewis, had them in " two's," which was the style of the Coldstreams, the Fusiliers having them is " three's." The jury, without hesitation, Acquitted the prisoners. CONVERSAZIONE AT THE MANSION-HOUSE. Yesterday evening the whole of the State apartments at the Mansion.house were thrown open to a brilliant circle of rank, science, beauty, and fashion. such as is seldom seen collected under one roof, even in the great metropolis. The arrivals were incessant from nine till half-past ten o'clock, by which time every available corner of the civic palace was crowded to suffocation. The Egyptian Hall was brilliantly illuminated, and ar ranged as a concert-room, in which was performed a concert of English music, and we need hardly add that it formed the great point of attraction. In the ball-room were laid out various objects of interest contributed by friends of the Lord Mayor, among which were models of ships from the Admiralty, electro plate from Messrs. Elkington's, the beautiful and novel glees globes which now figure so frequently at public entertainments, some fine specimens of enamelled glass from Mr. Kied; and last, though not least in interest, a rare and curious manuscript chronicle of French history sent from the City archives by the City Remembrancer. In other parts were flags from the Tower, and suits of armour from various quarters; in abort, nothing was wanting to give dclat to the.wel come which our worthy chief magistrate dispensed to his distinguished foreign and English guests. Between half-past ten and eleven the scene was gay awl attractive to an extraordinary degree, the number of foreign and especially of eastern costumes giving quite a pictorial character to the groups, or rather crowds, which one met in every quarter. The distinguished visitors were severally introduced by Mr. Cattey, the Lord Mayor's secretary, who most effectively superintended the ge neral arrangements, and received by the Lady Mayoress with all due graciousness and hospitality. The com pany, which numbered altogether nearly 1,500, began to depart shortly after the concert, but great numbers protracted the reception until nearly twelve o'clock.
