REPEAL OF THE MALT-TAX. Mr. PACKE gave notice that when the Hon. Member (Mr. Cayley) brought forward his motion for the repeal of the malt-tax, he should move an amendment to the effect that half the tax be repealed. AMENDMENTS ON ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES BILL. Lord J. RUSSELL said that perhaps it might be con venient if he were to state now, agreeably to his pro mise before the recess, the view which the Government took with regard to the amendments which were pro posed to b e i nse rted in the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill in Committee, and more particularly those which had been proposed by the Honourable Member for Midhurst. With respect to the first clause in those amendments, her Majesty's Ministers . would have no objection to it in tv,inciple, but they thcught that it would be carried into effect more completely by the terms of the preamble of their own Bill. With regard to the other clauses which the Hon. and Learned Gentleman had given notice of, her Majesty's Ministers had found, after full consideration, that they could not agree in them. With respect to the preamble of the Bill he (the Noole Lord) wished to re serve any opinion until the House should have gone through the clauses and settled what form the enactment would take. CEYLON. Mr. BAILLIE wished to know, a 3 the Hon. Member for Montrose had expressed some opinions on this sub ject, 30d had given notice of a motion which might ma terially affect the state of the question, whether there vas any intention on the part of Government to carry the recommendations which had been made into effect? Lord J. RUSSELL said that the recommendations had been so vague that he had not presumed to act upon them, and that he waited for further advices before ho could express any opinion whatever. PROPERTY AND INCOME TAX. The House then proceeded to the orders of the day, and the motion for the second reading of the Property and Income-tax Bill having been put, Mr. SPOONER said that he rose to move an amend ment that this motion should be postponed till this day six months. In 1542 Sir R. Peel proposed the imposition of an income-tax because he found an empty exchequer; but with that imposition, to which Parliament had con sentel, there was also a condition annexed—that it should not be continued for more than three years. It was a tax upon income; and that tax was manifestly imposed for a peculiar purpose, and for a particular time. In 1846 the deficiency in the Exchequer had been supplied, but then cam-, forward the grand financial prej, , ,qe nf Sir Rohort Pool. Ho had duL0r....i....:1 so do away with most of our indirect taxes, and then the income-tax was continued for three years. This carried the matter on until 1848, when the aspect of Europe was such that it was not difficult to get :in Act to carry on the tax for three years longer. But a time had now arisen in which there was no complaint of want in the exchequer, when, in fact, the Chancellor had a surplus, and no necessity existed for the continuance of this tax. It was unnecessary to go into any arguments against thin tax, because nothing but the greatest emergency could justify it. The late Mr. Francis Horner, as far back as 1815, stigmatized it as an unjust tax, and called upon the then Chancellor of the Exchequer to abandon t, while the Noble Lord himself, who was at the head of the present Government when this tax was first introduced, denounced it as not only unequal in its operation, but also liable to lead to much fraud and deception. Now that was the character of the tax as given by those who now proposed its continuance; and he put it to the House whether it was prudent, in the existing state of agriculture, to persevere with this measure? If Government did, all be could say was, that they would find themselves mistaken if they thought it would lead to no opposition or resist aece out of doors. No tax, in fact, was more obnoxious to the great mass of the people; and he, therefore, implored the Reuse not to sanction its continuance. He knew instances in whi c h persons rather than show their books, and let their affairs be known to the world, had submitted to pay extortionate sums under this tax; and he was quite care if the House knew how unequal this iniquitous tax pressed on the people, it would pause before it gave its sanction to the second reading of the Bill. The Right lion. Baronet the S ecretary for the Home Department, in a very short, but very power ful and aide sp,ech, said on a termer occasion, if he had the melancholy prospect before him of this becoming a permanent tax, he would endeavour to diminish its inequality ; but, looking to its probable dura tion, he should not object to it then, thinking that if its inequalities romaine:], they might on a future occasion resist the tax with more effect. Yet the Right Hon. Gentleman, who entertained that opinion whoa he was out of office, now came and asked the house to agree to the vexatious tax without any alteration whatever. ' Then, a gain, Viscount Howick, who w as now an influential ruerneer of the Go vernment, said to impose a tax on income and t o s l . , , Property was obviously unjust, and he agreed "', the inco me t ax s h ou ld b e confined to periods of trie grewest possible emergency, such as when the cluntr Y was involved in war or suffering under serious difficulties. That Noble Lord was high iu office, a clever and able man, nod was not liksly p hoped that •d opt an opinion hastily, and he when this re mar k wen t t o th e N o bl e L o rd in another place, he explain his opinions on taxa tion, and say hots he came to give his support to the Exchequer, Chancellor of the at a time w h en the country Was involved in no war, and w h en ' there was a surpl us revenue. e He next came to th e Ch a ncellor of the Exehr, and he must confess Gentleman that all the Right Hon. m he said made a strong i m pression on his mind, a n d that e idthat "so far from heard all that came from him with g re at delight. Ile sa this tax press in g excl usively en the rich, it pressed that the Right he rich, be en the labouring classes, and diminished the means of think that employment, and that he did not believe [lon. Baronet (Sir Robert Peel) could it pressed mo re exclusively ex w cl h u y si vel h y ad en h t. cause, if be -- 0 not i n , 0 d the tax ou the people of Ireland?" It was P_se, well known fact, which Honourable Gentlem en on the other side would have difficulty in denying , that ever sine© the year ISI9 poverty bad been increasing i n the country most rapidly, that poor- rates were consumi ng the whole produce of the land, and that farmers could not continue to occupy, even if they had no rent to pay. 'The lion. Gentleman opposite, the Under-Secretary for the C u l on i es, in 1844, was one of the most vehement oPlAnees of the tax, and had made a most decided speech against it..--frr ki-ortr.) Had he now altered his opinion? Bit there w ished to call was another class to which ho the attention of the House and that was the t enant I' farmers of England. No class w as more oppressed by this tax than that, and so ha told the House years ago, when the tax was first Tenant farmers prcpounded. were assessed upon an unjust and grossly erroneous basis, and if the tax must be con tinued, it would be nothi'ng a huuld be made in thi s p ar; of right that some change equalities in the tax whi c h he could There were other in• e could point out, but us th e y roust burg ago have become familiar to the House and the country, he should ntstain from d distinction, however, that wa s read, between the oing so. The land holder and the fundholder was meat unjust impo litic, inasmuch as t he manner i n which thetax w and made the former pay almost twice as much a3thaes l.ttter. evied The tax, in a word, was g rossl y un equal and vexatious. it also held out a p remium to comnsit frauda gave rise to a good dea l cf deception which would be well, avoided at the expense of the tax. That, in fact, wee the effect of these tars, an d not hi ng could possibly remedy the evil. What , therefore, he 8,,,,ict4 of the Hou s e was, that they should take all the se IN V.". S \pe,tee j. 3 into consideration. The principle had been de re,e-ea.,-ieent j e CliveAeare ago, when Lord Stanley made his celebrated / Ni * :K__J- n . 'lati n 4 especting the income-tax, and then it was de r,..., . a.,17. 1 .,7- , - , 1 ,,. -, ,;Sat . lt i erms, though not in vords, that at the ~, cnse - e.;4, - .sVoitsfils l'efo of the usual time the tax would be 'ln :' :- "i', l . :.- 7- e „Atisiitkid: Some attempts bad been made to increase the r ''' '' . _>,' initcl they had to a certain extent signally failed. , . ~ ..J \\,,....., - t. , - tr eless it was exceedingly desirable that the ex s. s a pse ono which the public had conceited should THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 29, 1851. be gratified, and that the income-tax should be remitted altogether. Now he was also sure that the re mission of the window duty for a house tax WAS an un certainty on which they never could rely. When he had previously brought forward this motion the Noble Lord at the head of the Government had been pleased t c say that he would look into the matter. He did not know how the change of circumstances could affect the change of measures. This was no party question, and he would therefore beg to remind his Lord ship that he had already assented to the necessity of abandoning the duty upon insurances. He believed that the tax was part of a system the effect of which would be to undermine the strength and re sources of the country, and on that conviction he should moveth at the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. MUNTZ seconded the amendment, and in doing so begged to say that he concurred generally in what Hishad fall Hon. Friend from his i,riendan lion F and himself im r s i e e l n i d w wer h e o in had the ju p s o t s sit p io o n k 7 . f being better able to judge of the iniquitous working of i t n o a f thepar part of Members o u o of t t r h y a t w i h l e o r u e s e a . placed m the income-tax than They were both large proportion of the manufacturers were sm a ll men, and they were able to see that on those small men the tax fell most unjustly.—(Hear, hear.) Next to the tenant-farmers, indeed—(Hear, hear)—who were obliged to pay whether they made any profi ts or not, the small manufacturers were more oppressed by the tax than any other portion of the community.—(Hear.) These men were notoriously surcharged, often more than once. I They were surcharged on their first returns, and, not being able to show their books, were obliged to pay. The thing went on, and he had known instances where persons had been surcharged three or . four times over. Could anything be more unjust than that ?—(Hear.) It was a COMM ask what they on practi ce f or t h em to come to him and should do; but all he could say to them was, that they should produce their books, show what their profits were, and so get off. Their reply to this was, that they could not do so without letting their neighbours into a knowledge of their business, and that they would rather pay the tax than show their books under such circumstances.—(Hear, hear.) For himself, he must say he would rather pay double the amount of the property-tax than such an inquisitorial, unjust income-tax, as the present. The great difficulty with him was, how they were to get rid of such a tax. He saw no end to it. It was a tax for ever. He asked the House, if the principle was to be recognised, how were they to get rid of the tax?—(Hear, hear.) Could they get quit of it as they got quit of the duty on bricks or coffee? It was clearly impossible. His Hon. Friend (Mr. Spooner) was wrong when he denied that any re duction had taken place in the price of bricks. He (Mr. Muntz) paid from Bs. 6d. to 9s. the thousand less for bricks than formerly. At the same time the abolition of that tax only gave partial relief, for it was a tax that operated very partially in many parts of the country where nothing but stone was used for building. Instead of the brick-tax, therefore, they should have taken off the income-tax, and if necessary imposed an increased property-tax. He remembered after the first year's collection of the income-tax having occa sion to wait upon Sir Robert Peel on business, when he referred to his (Mr. Muntz's) having voted for the tax, and then said it was the prettiest way of adding five million pounds to the revenue. He (Mr. Muntz) said he had voted for the tax because he did not think any tax could be imposed on the working classes, and he saw no prospect that any other could be paid. By the way in which it was levied, however, he had no hesitation in saying that it was the means of making men rob them selves in the most iniquitous manner.—(Hear, hear.) It was said that the window-tax was to be repealed; but it was the middle class who paid the window-tax, and he contended that they ought first to take off those taxes that pressed most heavily on those least able to bear them. There were a vast number of his constituents who paid the income-tax who never paid one shilling of window duty. They talked about taking off the taxes on articles of consumption. Was the window-tax an article of consumption? Yet they had repealed it, taking care, however, to put it all on again in the shape of a house-tax.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. FRESHFIELD, having had no opportunity of joining in the previous deliberations of the House on this question, and as this was the stage at which the prin ciple of the Bill would be determined, was anxious, on personal grounds, to guard against any misconstruction that might arise from the course he might take with re gard to voting on that occasion. The question was, whether the income-tax, with all the objections that had been stated against it, as being a war-tax now proposed in time of peace, was to be continued, or whether they were prepared with some other provisions by which the expenditure of the country could be so met as to war rant them in rejecting the Bili? Were they to agree to the second reading of the Bill that night, with the dis tinct understanding that it would be so modified in Committee as to free it from many of the objections urged against it, though not to the principle itself ? (Hear.) In 1842, when Sir Robert Peel brought for ward this tax, and was so strongly opposed by gentle men now on the Government side, on the ground that it was essentially a war-tax, he had this excuse, that there was a deficiency in the revenue of 4,800,0001., while we were engaged in fighting on the Indus and in China. Then in 1845, though Sir R. Peel had a surplus, he was enabled to obtain a renewal of the income-tax, on account of the many taxes which he then remitted and moderated. In 1848, when the measure was again introduced, not by Sir R. Peel, but by the present Government, there was an excuse, if not a justification of it, found in the mischievous measure of 1846 ; for the Period wag appr...,•hir. s lA•Len, in j4;19, v . end „,,,,xj t,,, put to the revenue from the importation of corn. In 1842 the Noble Lord (Lord J. Russell) stated that, had the commercial measures proposed by him in 1841 been adopted, he believed there would have been no necessity for the Bill then introduced. What was the commercial measure of the Noble Lord? It was a fixed duty of Bs. Now that the present measure was before the House might they not hope, when they got into Committee, to have brought under their considera tion the commercial measure that was desired by the Noble Lord in 1841 as some reason why a part of the in come-tax should be abandoned? He wished, when he voted for the second reading of the Bill—for he was not prepared to give up so much revenue without a sub stitute—to guard himself against its being supposed that anything would induce him to vote for this measure if he did not believe that there would be important altera tions made in Committee—alterations as to extent in point of time, the objects of the tax, and also the amount of the tax.—(Hear, hear.) He hoped the Noble Lord would find some substitute for the schedule affecting the tenant-farmers, and he concurred in all that had been said with reference to annuitants by the Honourable Member (Mr. Spooner). With re gard to the proposal of the Chance Bur of the e.;xche- Mr. DISRAELI said it appesred to him that the ob jections which had been urged by the Hon. Member for Warwickshire (Mr. Spooner), many of which were very just, might be brought under consideration when the House should have resolved itself into a Committee with much greater effect than on the present °eel sion. Under those circumstances, and considering that his Honourable Friend had had an opportunity of making a very able statement to the House, he (Mr. Disraeli) did not think it was expedient to carry the discussion further then. For his own part, he ob jected to many of the provisions of the Government measure, but, at the same time, he was not prepared to express an opinion to the effect that he was entirely op posed to the general scheme of the Government proposi tion. Therefore, seeing that his Hoe. Friend had already fully given his opinions on the subject, and con sidering that he would again have an opportunity of ex • pressing them in Committee, he trusted his Hon. Friend would mot ask the House to divide on the present oc casion. Mr. SPOONER said he did not wish to press his mo tion against the feeling of the House, and he would therefore certainly consent to withdraw his amendment. The Hon. Gentleman here paused for a moment, and then said he would not withdraw his amendment, but would prefer having it negatived. The amendment was then put and negatived. The Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Friday next. The Stamp Duties Assimilation Bill, the Exchequer bills (17,756,0001.) Bill, and the Indemnity Bill were se verally read a third time and passed. The other orders of the day were then postponed. COMMITTEE ON CUSTOMS. Mr. MITCHELL moved that Mr. J. L. Ricardo be a member of this Committee in lieu of Mr. Fagau, who had accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER sug gested that some Irish Member should be nominated in the place of Mr. Fagan,—and the name of Mr. Murphy, the newly-elected Member for Cork, was mentioned. Mr. MITCHELL objected to Mr. Murphy, as not being a man of commercial experience. The motion was finally withdrawn, with the under standing that it should be further considered on a future day. THE GREAT EXHIBITION. Lord J. RUSSELL gave notice that he should move that o❑ Thursday next, the Ist of May, the House do meet at *ix o'clock, instead of at the usual hour of lour. The House then adjourned. EXHIBITION OF 1851.—APPOINT MENT OF JURORS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Six,—Feeling auxtuus that foreigners, as well as our own countrymen, who are exhibitors in the Crystal Palace, should not have any good cause to compluin of the arrangements made by the Commissioners with re spect to the appointment of " the Jurors" for determin ing the prizes, permit me, through the columns of your valuable journal, to call attention to what appears to use a mistake on the part of the Commissioners, and which may be considered by many exhibitors to show a want of impartiality and fairness in the appointment of the jurors. I learn from the list published by you this 'evening, that Mr. Thomas De la Rue and Mr. Venables (the former one of the principal exhibitors, and the latter also an exhibitor himself, or immediately connected with the firm exhibiting under the same name), are ap pointed jurors under Section 17. I do not impute any intention on the part of Mr. De la Rue and his coadjutors of acting partially, but it is so obviously a violation of principle to appoint any nv kikitr , ro to dcoicl,, 011 she ~ ..uwveciug LuerliB or their own inventions when compared with others, that I am sure it will only require a notice of the fact to ensure a more satisfactory appointment. Amongst the large number of manufacturers under Class 17 no difficulty could have existed in finding per fectly competent persons, who were not themselves ex hibitors or personally interested in the goods they were called upon to judge of. The case of Professor Cowper may be instanced, he having declined acting as a juror that he might not be placed in the awkward position of deciding upon the merits of machines exhibited as improvements upon his own inventons.—l am, Sir, Sw. JUSTITIA. April 26. DR. KAHN'S ANATOMICAL MUSEUM. Among the most prominent objects of interest now in the metropolis, the Anatomical Museum of Dr. Kahn, which is now exhibiting at 315, Oxford-street, claims a high rank. This museum is not only interesting to the medical man from the number, anatomical correctness, and artistic beauty of the specimens contained in it, but it also gives to the general and non-medical observer a clear idea of the marvellous structure of the human frame, a knowledge of which, and of the functions per formed by each organ, is essentially necessary for every person to whom health, the first of blessings, is an object of consideration. Dr. Combe, in his admirable "Prin ciples of Physiology," complains of the slight know ledge of this science manifested among the people of this country, and suggests that every parent should make himself acquainted at least with the structure and functions of the vital organs, so that the rising genera tion may be free from those exciting causes of disease which observation has shown to proceed from a sys tematic violation of the laws of nature. This important information may be acquired at Dr. Kahn's Museum, where a medical gentleman delivers periodical lectures, illustrated by wax models, on the subject. In a collec tion consisting of nearly four hundred specimens, it would be impossible to mention all the objects of inte rest, but among the more prominent will be found a series of models showing the formation of the human being from the first moment of conception to the time of birth. This series has called forth the highest en comiums from all the scientific gentlemen to whom it has been submitted. Immense models of the eye and ear are shown, and clearly explained; as is also a full length figure, which takes entirely to pieces, affording opportunity for a most lucid description of the physio logy of digestion, circulation, &c., and the organs by which those functions are performed. The evil effects of tight lacing are also exhibited in the figure of a young lady who suddenly fell dead in consequence of this per nicious habit; and models may also be seen which are more calculated to deter youth from vice or imprudence than the most impressive moral lecture. Some curious malformations and freaks of nature are shown, and ex cite considerable amazement. We have derived great pleasure and instruction from our visit to this excellent museum, and can confidently promise equal gratification to such of our readers as may feel disposed to spend an hour or two in the examination of its varied and inter esting contents. quer to give up one direct tax, and substitute another iu its place, he drew from it the inference that there was to be a reconsideration of the whole subject of taxation, and that a more just system would be the result.—(Hear, hear.) Iu conclusion, he w ou ld vote for a renewal of the income-tax, but for a limited time only, in order to give the Government time to consider _ • - what more befittin; mode of taxation ought to be adopt-d.—(Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER could not congratulate his Hon. Friend opposite (Mr. Spooner) upon any great accordance between him and the lion. Gentleman who had seconded his amendment; for, though they agreed on the general point that the Bill ought to be rejected, there was not a single point in the argument ore whic4 they did not diifer.--(Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member for North Warwickshire stated that the great grievance of the income-tax was the existing unjust pressure on the landed proprietors included in schedule A. The Hon. Member for Birmingham, on the contrary, was perfectly willing; to double the pressure on the land by increasing the property-tax, but thought it unjust that the same rate should be imposed on trade.—(Hear, hoar.) Tho Hon. Member fur North Warwickshire spAte of the repeal of the duty on bricks as not having reduced in any way the price of bricks; while the Hon. Member for Birmingham said he himself paid Bs. 6d. a thousand less for bricks than he did before. This was a proof that considerable benefit had been conferred on a large portion of the community. The Hon. Gentleman, however, gave the oddest reason against the repeal of the tax. He said it was an exceedingly partial tax, and, therefore, ought not to have been rep3aled.—(A laugh.) The Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Muntz) blamed him exceedingly for taking off the window duty and not repealing the income-tax. Now, the House bad, on former occasions, rejected motions for the repeal of the window-tax; but he found, on referring to the division list, that the Hon. Gentleman was one of those who voted with the Noble Lord the Member fur Bath on his motion for the total repeal of that tax. — (A laugh.) The Hon. Gentleman was one of those who RES FOR 1851. last year voted for the repeal of the window-tax; and how ho could now object to his (the Chancellor of the Exche quer) repealing that objectionable tax it would puzzle him, he thought, to explain.—(Hear, hear.) He would not detain the House long upon this question, as he thought it would not require many words to prove that the House ought not to assent to the amendment of the Hon. Gentleman opposite. He bad proposed the re newal well certain what w as _ of the income-tax for a limited number of years. l'ho Right Hon. Gentleman opposite (Mr. Harries) thereupon made what was a fair proposition for him to l t e o a r v e e n e tll.e make., a He proposed that the tax should be renewed only extent. The Right Hon. Gentleman knew too well w hat rna lv in a t s e due the state of the finances, and he proposed income-tax to such an extent as would what no thought an adequate revenue. He knew to the credit of this country and to the maintenance of its establishments not to at leastinuance of such a portion of the income-tax" propose the resinhis (the Chancellor of the im portant purposes. I t w a as was necessary for those ma i . s o t that motion of the Right Exchequer's) duty t o the House concurred Hon.

Gentleman Now, if deter minedtheamount of revenue should be sacrificed been the window-tax, and by the reduction coffee and timber. All these things would h d. But, having ' Spooner) wa s determined ( ir r o . s ri si e h r l r e ie if o rl h ie ad m s o u ti c 'o c r e l e o d t e . on the renewal of the income-tax, the House had amendmentthat o o t f h e t r h e taxes lion . should Gentlemen be r ep ( o st a l l repe a led . carried, not only must tho reduction of the duties on coffee and timber be given up, but the repeal of the window duties must be surrendered also; and more than that, while the Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Hurries) would have left revenue enough to maintain the esta blishments of the country, the proposition of the lion. Gentleman (Mr. Spooner) on the present occasion would, if carried, render necessary the imposition of further taxes. He stated, on the first occasion on which he had brought the s u bj ect b e f ore t h e H ouse , th a t if the income tax werenot (Haar, to be renewed there would be a deficiency of 1,000,0001. this year and of 3 500 000/. next year.— hear.)

That was a decision which, he believed, the House was not prepared to sanction, and therefore he trusted they would negative the proposition of the Hon. Gentleman.—(Hear, hear.) With regard to the various proposals to which the Hon. Gentleman had re ferred for modifying the tax, he would only say, as he had done before, that they were very proper questions to be considered when they came into Committee. He would not now, therefore, go into the subject of the vari ous schedules, but would be prepared to do so very deli berately when the time for doing so came. In the mean time the question was, whether they should repeal the income-tax or continue it. He was not prepared to adopt the first of these proposals, and therefore he hoped the House would reject the amendment of the Hon. Gentleman, and reserve for the Committee a full consi deration of the various questions that might affect par ticular interests.—(Hear, hear.) Colonel SIBTHORP asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether it was his intention to go into Com mittee wirh the Bill on Friday next? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it certainly was his intention, if possible, to go into Com mittee on Friday; but, as there were some motions on the paper which had precedence, ho could not say whe ther he should Ise able to do so or not. Mr. MACGREGOR considered the schedules upon which the income duties were now levied to be in themselves unjust, but he would not say anything more on that sub ject until the Bill was in Committee. But this he would say, that rather than abolish the income-tax altogether, he would vote for it as it now stood, because they could not abolish it without imposing other taxes of ts much more objectionable character. THE SEWAGE QUESTION. MR. DOVER'S DISINFECTING PLAN. Every one has heard of the convincing argument used by the Emperor Vespasian in defence of a certain item of taxation which formed part of the Imperial Budget. Drawing forth a piece of coin which had formed part of the contribution drawn from the obnoxious impost, he placed it under the nose of the remonstrant, and with the remark, non old mi filius, returned it to his purse, and Titus no doubt was convinced, for we hear no more of his expostulations, Mr. Richard Dover is cer tainly the Vespasian of our day, for he proposes to draw a revenue of somewhere about 3,000.0001 per annum from those great sinks of impurity and filth which as yet have produced nothing but infection and disease—the sewers. If Mr. Dover should succeed in his plan, and carry out the promises which he makes, we doubt not that he will find the public of the present day less scrupulous than was the Emperor's son, and perfectly ready to con cur with him in any undertaking which will not only remove an evil of the greatest magnitude, but convert it into a source of profit and revenue. On Saturday last we were witnesses of some experi ments which that gentleman made, on a large scale, on some sewage water from the great Essex•street sewer. The scene of his operations was an open space of ground on the banks of the river, directly over the sewer which discharges itself into the Thames at the bottom of Essex street; and into this grand canal of filth and abomina tions he had inserted a pipe, through which, by means of a force pump, he drew off into a large tank some gal lons of dark, filthy, rank-smelling sewage water, which in a few minutes more would have been precipitated into "Father Thames," and formed a part of the giant river so often apostrephised by poets and orators as waving the shores of the Queen of Cities. In this tank Mr. Dover had already placed a portion of the chemical preparation which is the main point of his discovery, and in a very short time the water which we ourselves had seen pumped into the tank dirty and of an almost overpowering odour, emerged through a tap at the opposite side as pure to the sight almost as a mountain brook, without the slightest offensive smell, and which, on being further passed through a common filterer, tasted not at all unlike a compound of Harrogate and Cheltenham waters. The result of this part of the experiment enacted before our own eyes was sufficiently satisfactory, and if Mr. Dover had no other object in view than that of rendering our river the pure and silvery stream which it was in ancient days, we should have no hesitation in pronouncing him a public benefactor, and a more efficient conservator of the Thames than all the Lord Mayors who ever floated over it in a gilded barge. But the best part of the plan remains behind, and Mr. Dover does not let the sewage get off so easily. The che mical agent used by that gentleman to purify and deodorize the stream of filth, acts, by fixing and precipitating all those matters which emit noxious smells and poisonous gases, which a' the same time are of the utmost value for agricultural purposes. A residium of these is thus left at the the bottom of the tank, which, by a drying pro cess, is converted into a dark coloured sandy substance, to which Mr. Dover has moat appropriately given the name of British guano; a large quantiry of this was submitted to our inspection, and on putting it to the usual test of foreign guano, that of rubbing it between the hands, we found it did not discolour them. The practical experi ments which have been tried with this British guano in agriculture have been most successful, and we are in formed that in the growing of turnips it has been found of the greatest value. This Mr. Dover calculates could be sold to the farmer, with a fair profit to the manufacturer, at 51. per ton; and as this is not one half of the present market price of foreign guano, it becomes a serious question whether an extensive manufacture of this article would not really be a step in the right direction towards the alleviation of agricultural distress; particularly it' the declaration made by a Noble Duke be correct, that with guan oat 51. per ton, the British farmer would grow wheat to a profit at five shillings per bushel. Mr. Dover proposes to erect works, of which the cost would be slight when compared with other projects which have been submitted to the public on tho oow.g u queativti, AL the exit of each sewer, and under his management, the dirty puddle of a Thames which flows through the metropolis would become a clear limpid stream, no longer the bearer of poisonous odours and deadly infection—an im portant point in the great sanitary question would be satisfactorily settled for ever, and the tons of agricul tural manure which each day are rolled uselessly on to the ocean, would be arrested, and made the means of increased fertility to our lands, and increased surplus in our revenue. The remuneration which Mr. Dover asks from Go ♦ernment for his discovery is so moderate, as to re flect discredit on them should they refuse to give him at least the advantage of a fair trial. They have before them a simple, efficacious plan for promoting, nay, en suring we might say, the sanitary welfare of the metro polis, a cause in which they have been for some time boasting of their great zeal and anxiety, and with them rests the responsibility if they neglect to take advantage of the result of Mr. Dover's long experience and un wearied efforts. We understand that the experiment is to be repeated in a short time, and we shall then have much pleasure in announcing any new facts which may be elicited on a subject which must be of the greatest importance to every member of the community. THE BRIBERY AT THE LAST FALKIRK ELECTION. On notice being given by Mr. Edward Ellice of his intention to move for a Royal Commission of inquiry into the proceedings at the late election for St. Alban's, Mr. Cobden gave notice that he would move, as an amend ment, that the Commission be also required to investi gate the proceedings at the late election for the Falkirk District of Burghs. It will perhaps be alleged as an objectionenp styto to inquire amendment, that ther e can b e no n into this c ase , see i ng t h at t h e par tiessit who petitioned against the return of Mr. Baird withdrew the petitio n w i t h out b r i ng i ng it to trial, from want of evidence, a p parently, to support the charges it contained. Should some Member of Parliament in his ignorance make such an objection, Mr. Cobden, wo be lieve, will be able, from preliminary investigations which are at present being made, to show that there is a great reason for inq u i ry, and that the manner in which the petition was got up is as strong an argument and was afterwards withd rawn , gument for his motion as aey th at can be derived fr om the proceedings during the election, as proving that besides the practices alleged to have been followed at that time, a transaction afterwards took place, from which it would appear that there is some one in the bu rg h s assuming the right to manage their business as it they were his own domain, and as if Mr. Baird were an interloper whom be alone could. have a ri g ht t o ca ll i n ques ti on . A L ondon barrister of great experience in election matters spent several days in this town last week, and is now, we be lieve, in one of the other burghs, making minute inquiry Into the practices on both sides during the canvasi. He is not carrying on his investigations with any view to unseat Mr. Baird, against whose return a second peti. tion cannot be received. His sole purpose, we believe, is to collect for Mr. Cobden and the other Mem bers of Parliament by whom he has been deputed, information which shall show the necessity of giving pro tection to the voter against undue influence. It is said the evidence he has already gathered is of a very de cided character, and implicates both parties. What ever may be the nature of the protection to the voters intended to be proposed by Mr. Cobden, he will, at all events, see from the evidence which will be submitted to him, that it is in vain to look to universal suffrage. He will be informed that the night before the nomina tion of candidates, three hundred of the unenfranchised —the men whom Feargus O'Connor delights to honour, wh o have cheered his democratic sentiments to the echo, and who, like that disinterested patriot, are pre pared to die for their rights—allowed themselves to be put in a state of brutal intoxication, and bartered their vaunted integrity for a few gills of whisky. Some of them, too drunk for the purpose for which they were intended, were carried from the scene of dissipation in carts, which were literally emptied of their contents in the open fields. It has be en j ocu l ar l y sai d, that the opening of the public-houses to these men was an experiment for the purpose of ascert a i n i ng w i t h w h a t effect the system of treating could be carr i e d on un d er a more extended franchise; and it must be acknowledged, that it fully showed that an extension of the electoral privilege, without efficient protection to the voter, would be a moral and social curse b )th to the in lividuals so admitted to the right of voting and to the community of which they form a part.—Falkirk Herald. MURDER NEAR TRURO. (From the Devonport Independent.) It has happily been some time since the frightful crime of murder has boon perpetrated in Cornwall; but we are sorry that we have again to add to the catalogue of heinous guilt, a murder committed in this county on Saturday last. The locality where the deed was per petrated is called Silverwell, near the Chiverton Arms, on the road between Truro and St. Agnes, and about live miles from the former place. The murdered man, William Kendall, occupied a small farm, and lived in the house with his wife alone. This was his second wife, to whom be had been married about four y ears . Her former name was Teague, and she had a son by her first husband, called Elijah Teague, and now about 17 years of age. This son lived with his mother and Ur. Kendall until January last, when he went to lodge at a neighbouring house with Henry Grose; but he still occasionally worked on the farm for his father-in-law, who wax about 72 years of age.

The son in-law was examinA at the inquest, as well as other witnesses. He states that he found de ceased, who had returned from Chacewater, about eighty yards from his own house, lying on the ground insensi ble, with a large wound in his head caused by a kick from his horse; that he then lifted him up, and carried him into his own house, his heels dragging on she ground. There do not appear, however to be any marks of the body having been thus dragg, d over the ground. Deceased's wife was absent at this time, having gone to Henry Grose's (Elijah Teigue's lodgings). On her returning and ask ing for her husband, Teague said he was in the par lour, but he would not allow her to go in, saying the horse had thrown" to him, and it would hurry her. She did not go in, but went went back to Grose's who called one or two nighbuurs, and with them and his wife proceeded to deceased's dwelling. When they got there they found de ceased's wife walking up and down before the house, she having left Grose's house in the interim, and gone there. The neighbours found the door locked, and could not find the key where it was usually placed when no one was at home. As they could not get in, deceased's wife proposed that the door should be lifted from its hinges, but this was not done, and strange to say, no entry was made into the place until the next morning, when the old man was found dead in the parlour, as before described. The sur geon, Mr. Moyle, does not conceive the wound in deceased's forehead could have been caused by the kick of a horse, as stated by Elijah Teague, but that the injury was in flicted by two or more blows from some heavy instru ment. Another circumstance was the fact of Elijah Teague having been about three hours absent from home to call a surgeon (according to his own statement), and an explanation of which he was called on to give in his evidence. He also pointed out five spots of blood at the place where he says he found deceased's body before he took it into the house; but the surgeon gives his opinion that the spots aro not blood that had flawed from a re cent wound. The prisoner's own statement of the circumstance having been heard, and the evidence of the surgeon, Mr. Moyle, as well us that of Mary Grose, Henry Grose, and Ed ward Mitchell, of Tre4avethan, the jury, at the adjourned inquest held on Tuesday, returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against Elijah Teague," who was committed to the next assize for trial. There does not appear in the evidence anything to show a motive for the committal of the act, but it is stated in the neighbourhood that there were frequent disagreements between the deceased and his son-in-law. THE LATE MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT WALTON. (From the Carlisle Patriot of Saturday.) Both the principal parties concerned in this lament able tragedy have long been held in high esteem by all who knew them. The Rev. Joseph Smith is Incumbent of Walton, with an income of 1301. a year and a ptirsonago house. Though the means derived from his cure were so limited, he did a great deal of good in the locality ; in fact he dispensed in charity a large portion of his income. His chief personal characteristics wero excessive ner vousness and timidity. He sensitively shrank from giving pain to any living creature; and yet this very nervousness and timidity seem to have placed him under circumstances in which he deprived of life an individual whom it is believed he never saw, and against whom, certainly, he entertained not the slightest feeling of enmity. Yesterday the jury and witnesses again assembled to sign the depositions and complete the necessary forms. The magistrates were, we believe, again in attendance, and found Mr. Smith labouring under great mental suf fering; and we are uncertain whether or not they were enabled to read over the depositions to him. The case is now in their haLds, and there is no doubt but they will admit him to bail, if indeed the necessary forms have not already been completed. The remains of the unfortunate deceased were in terred, on Tuesday last, in Ettleton Churchyard, near Newcastleton, and friends and acquaintances from far and near flocked to the spot to pay the last sad tri bute of respect to the mewory of a man who was the pride of the district, and beloved and respected wherever no was known. A correspondent who witnessed the funeral says—" The procession presented a very im posing spectacle. In some parts of the road along which it pissed it appeared as if it extended for nearly a q carter of a mile. It is doubtful if ever so large an attendance was before seen at tiny funeral in the parish. Many came from a great distance—for poor Sorbietrees' was known far and wide—and many more would have been present, but this beieg the lambing season, the shepherds could not leave their flocks. Grief was depicted in every faee, and every man seemed to feel the loss as a personal bereavement. There is wail- ing and lamentation throughout the whole district." The deceased, who was a keen sportsman, was to have met " the Duke's" hounds on " Canobie Lee" on the Thursday morning —the day after his death; and it was to enable him to keep this engagement that he declined to stay all night at Brampton, as he had been pressed to do by several friends. At the " meet" in the morning his well-known face, cheerful voice, and hearty laugh were soon missed—for wherever ho went he was the " observed of all observers;" and the common expres sion on every tongue was—" God's sake, what's gotten Sorbietroe4?" Mr. Armstrong was the representative of a long line of ancestors, famous in their day as chiefs and leaders in the border warfare. He was considered one of the handsomest men in Lidlesdale, and the surgeons who made the post mortem examination describe him as one of the finest formed men they had ever seen. He was a fast friend and a kind neighbour —ever trying to do goof to all who had ever come under his notice. It was this strong feeling of regard for all who had ever lived under his roof that cost him his life; for there is no doubt, from what he said to his wire and others, that the object of his calling at Walton Parsonage was for the purpose of offering to re-engage the witness Glen dinning, who had lived several years with bis father and himself, as a servant. STATE OF TRADE. BIRMINGHAM, SATURDAY.—lnquiries during the pre sent week in the neighbourhood of Dudley have con firmed conclusions previously expressed as to the unsatis factory state of the iron trade; and advises received by the last packets from the United States give little en couragement to the exportation of the raw material from these districts. The proprietors of some of the most ex tensive establishments state that the demand for iron is comparatively small, and, as is known (from the rates fixed upon at the lust quarter-day), prices are barely re munerative; in some in , tances they are ruinously under the mark. But althoagh prospects are so cheerless, fur naces for the most part remain in blast, and, so far us we could judge from a cursory view of the most densely populated parts of the iron districts, there did not appear to be any observable or material cessation of employ ment; but how matters are to improve without a reduc tion of make is a problem yet to be solved. The decreased demand for British iron in North Ame rica owing to the repletion of the market is not the only depressing circumstance in connexion with the manu facturing interests of this neighbourhood and their trans atlantic commerce. Within these few weeks locks, bolts, and other duor fittings, the make of which has hitherto been confined chiefly to Willenhall, Walsall, Darlaston, and other contiguous localities, have been introduced amongst the factors of Birmingham and Wol verhampton, as of American make. Samples of cham ber bolts have been exhibited which Staffordshire ma nufacturers assert are offered one-third cheaper than they could afford to make them. It is somewhat singu lar, however, that while this kind of iron ware is im ported at such low prices from the United States, the exports to America of other descriptions of manufac tured metal goods remain unabated. Amongst other branches of Birmingham trade at pre sent particularly active may be mentioned that of steel toys. The name does not truly denominate the manu facture. Steel toys consist of chisels, pincers, and other iron and steel implements of a like description: The make is now unusually large, and the demand for Shef field files so great that the factors experience great dif ficulty in obtaining the execution of their orders. The steel-pen trade, now carried on in Birmingham to en immense extent, continues its career of prosperity. Mr. Gillett, the eminent manufacturer, has considerably en larged his establishment; and Mr. Mitchell and other pen-makers of repute are in full work. The electro-plato trade is also thriving. Although a comparatively late discovery, electro-plate, like plate•glass, has already become of every-day domestic use, and finds employ ment iu its manufacture for no inconsiderable number of our industrial population. The Messrs. Elkington's works in Newhall-street are busily occupied, a large pro portion of their productions being for exportation. Amongst the most splendid specimens of this modern discovery exhibited in the Crystal Palace will be found the productions of Messrs. Elkingtou. The copper trade is brisk. The demand fur the lamp manufacture and all description of tubing at the pre: ent time is unusually large; so much so, that some of the first houses are almost run out of stock, and prices, con sequently, remain high. Locomotive tubing carries off an immense quantity of copper, and is now in great re quest. The brass foundry business remains steady, and, notwithstanding continental competition, large quantities of brass manufactured goods continue to be exported. Some of our factors speak unfavourably of the state of the home trade with regard to the demand for Birming ham manufactures; but, generally speaking, th ere are fewer complaints than gratulations. MANCHESTER, SATURDAY.—There is no little difficulty at the present moment in arriving at a correct view of the position in which the market stands, so much ',un steadiness pervades it; and to-day it hat, had more of en uncertain character than during the last month. Oa every hand loud complaints are uttered by producers that they are offered prices which they cannot accept, because they have a reference to what the raw material is expected to fetch instead of its present cost; and that, unless they close with these low-priced offers when made, they are not usually repeated unless accompanied by a demand for further concession. Still it, is remarkable that we cannot hear of any accumulation of stocks ; pro ducers express a decided repugnance to commence run ning short time, and there is an increase of 700 bales in the average consumption per week (as shown by the de mand on Liverpool) compared with the same period last year, trade there being in a fair state. With such facts to be remembered, we are bound to repeat that the causes which brought about what may be termed the mo mentary panic of to-day are not to be stated. Want of ' confidence, which has hitherto been manifested solely in respect t, the continuance of the raw material at itr present high price, is n o w m an if e st e d with respect to the credit of certain parties; and the feet that one Greek house has stopped, that some other small manufacturing firms have failed, and that other, are understood to be asking for time, has led to rumours which we believe to be exaggerated. The firms that are gone do not, in the aggregate, represent any very serious amount of loss, and would scarcely have been notice d at another time. With a different state of feeling as to the circumstances we have last named, it is not improbable that a large business would be done on speculation, for India espe cially, as the latest accounts received thence warrant the belief that extensive orders must be transmitted soon, possibly by the next mail. Seine of the shipping houses seem to be of this Opinion, fir wo understand that, large offers were made in the Cour:it? et Thursday afternoon; and we hear of houses that have given nut orders maid) more considerable than any before this year, though still below those which they gave last year at this time. The demand for home languishes, and does not come up to that of last year.

JUDGES' CHAMBERS, April 28. (Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) THE QUEEN V. THE REV. JOSEPH SMITII. In this case, during the last week, a writ of certiorari was issued upon an order made by the Hon. Mr. Justice Coleridge, directed to Mr. W. Carrick, one of the coro ners for the county of Cumberland, to return the deposi tions taken before him; and an application was subse quently made before the same Learned Judge to admit the Rev. Gentleman to bail, but, owing to an accidental omission on the part of the coroner to return the depo sitions, the Learned Judge declined to make an order. To-day Mr. J. F. Adams, of the firm of Plucknett and Adams, Lincoln's Inn•square, the agents for the solici tor of Mr. Smith, renewed his application, and said that as the depositions had been returned, and were then before his Lordship, he was then i❑ a position to ask the relief sought; the peculiar circumstances of the case were no doubt familiar to his Lordship, from the publi city given by the press to the evidence taken before the coroner; and he felt no doubt that his Lordship, on reading the depositions, would readily concede than the case was one which his Lordship would consider as a fit and proper one for the exelcise of the jurisdiction which the Judge possessed of admitting the prisoner to bail. On the former application he adduced before Mr. Justice Coleridge sufficient evidence, by the certifi cates of the Learned Coroner and Dr. Graham, to show that the Rev. Gentleman had been in a state of mind since the fatal occurrence to render his removal danger ous, and call for the sympathy of his Lordship and justify the application he then made. Notice of the application had been given to the parties representing the next. of kin of the deceased, as also the coroner; anal he (Ur. Adams) had the satisfaction of producing the consent of those parties to the prisoner being admitted to bail, and the only question was, if his Lordship should be of opi nion that it was a case for making the order, what amount of bail was required. The prisoner was in cus tody under the coroner's warrant, and he would, there fore, ask that the hail to be fixed by his Lordship might be taken before one of the magistrates felt the county, to prevent the necessity of the defendant being brought up by habeas corpus to London. _ The Learned JUDGE having read the depositions, said, he was of opinion it was a fit case for the allowance of bail, the defendant entering into his own recognialnces in 4001., and two sureties In 200/. each. An order was accordingly made for taking the bail as fixed by his Lordship before a magistrate, the approval of bail being in the discretion of such magistrate, up ,, n which the R-:v. Gentleman will be discharged out of cus tody until the next aisize6. The order was forwarded by last n;ght's post to the proper authorities. POLICE MANSION-HO LSE. Alderman Wilson wain-d upon the Lord Mayor for the purpose of requesting his Lordship's assiseince in carrying out the alterations be proposed as to the con veyance of the public in omnibuses—alterations which had been so long considered necessary, on account of the vast inconvenience arising from the packing of passen gers in these vehicles. The Alderman said, that since the recent convictions had taken place at Guildhall he had received more ha ters than he could read, and more applications than he could attend to. It was admitted by Mr. Lewis, who ap peared for a great number of proprietors, that the con struction of the omnibuses complained of was in, the proportion of ninety-nine out of one hundred illegal. The clients of that gentleman accordingly pleaded guilty, and ho undertook on the part of 800 of them to have their carriages altered with as little delay as possible. It was gratifying to know that many omnibuses had been altered, and the example had been followed by several proprietors who had not been summ coned at all, but were satisfied of the rational ground of complaint. 'At the same time it was necessary to state that some proprietors were resolved not to make the required alte rations until compelled to act in compliance with the orders of the regulations for the public accommodation. Against some of the refractory parties he had received information, and he had ordered informations to issue for Saturday, and it was his intention to deal with them according to the strict letter of the law. The LORD Mevoa said, he also had received com plaints upon the subject, and he believed the only mode of proc-eding likely to prove availing would be to en courage those who suffered from the want of room, as regulated by Act of Parliament, to come forward in the general cause. Alderman WILSON said, that on his way td the 'Man sion-house he had been stopped by a gentleman who complained of the act of a conductor in thrusting a thir teenth person into an omnibus when twelve were inside, all of whom grumbled at the intrusion as illegal, and calculated to cause intolerable inconvenience, but were obliged to submit. To meet that case he should direct a summons to issue, bat he wished it to go forth to the public from the bench of the chief magistrate that the excuse of want of time to make adequate alterations in the sea's would not be available in cases of future trans gression, and that the heaviest penalties would be in flicted upon the proof of the admission of an illegal num ber, or the admission of more than twelve when the licence was for thirteen when there was not sufficient room for the latter number, or unless the proprietors could show that the corner seats were c , nvenient accord ing to the terms of the Act, which required that their should be sixteen inches in the front of each seat, mea suring lengthways in a straight line. A great majority of proprietors have consented to make the required alterations, and he thought it would not be justice to those who had so readily acquiesced in the decision of the magistrate to allow a few refractory persons to set the law at defiance and to continue to give annoyance to the public in the present condition of the nielropolis. The LORD 1414.Y0R said that upon reference to the Act of Parliament he found that the " convenience" of the public was particularly and emphatically alluded to, and he felt convinced that the admission of more persons into an omnibus, whatever the licence might be, than could be conveniently accommodated, would be a violation of the law. He did not consider that the question was whether the corner seats in omnibuses should or should not be removed, but whether the accommodation con trived suited the convenience of all the passengers; and he considered, too, that the Act required that there should be associated together with the sixteen inches allowance to each paisenger other accommodations in the construction of the public carriage.. His Lordship said he was persuaded that his brother magistrates would join in carrying cut to the full extent the necessary re gulations, and that such public notice of their intention should be given as would arm all omnibus Passengers with the power of, to a great extent, protecting them selves. The penalty amounted to 101., and probably a few convictions of the kind would check the pr act i ce which daily increased of crowding in passeng ers go i ng towards the West-end. He believed, indeed, that Ch eap _ side and Fleet-street presented at that moment many instances of the inconvenience complained of, and of th e transgression of the law which it was so necessary to observe. _ - THE CUUNTRY MARKE T .t t ieit i The following is th e o ffi c i a l statement o f the Oi t a" - r corn, &c., received i n the port of London from 9 110 Essex, from the 21 s t April, 1851, to the 26th AP" both inclusive : 2; c' • • : i I ..z: r - is l 4 ,' r, Colchester 7 4 395 Harwich Leigh...... , , Maldon 182,' 15 ... , 5 , . 655 , o ._ 84 2i11 .... 2 . .„`...0":, • n--"---- A • __..., ,is f011°,!5,0 CHELMSFORD, APRIL 25.—Prices to-day as- old were I A Wheat, white, old 41s to 455; new 405 to 46 5 ; c heil, 35s to 4Os ; neti, 355 to 40, ; barley, 26s to B°l 22, to 30, ; gr i n di ng 19 s to 255; oats 15s to 21 %, 17/, : to 55s ; chev a li er 54 s t o 56 s ; peas, partridge, p °, to 29s ; old, —5 to —s ; white, new, 26s to 28s ; old , "' o ld, dun, new, 26s to 28 s ; b eans , t i c k , new 2 5 s to 271; 00 ; Iv to 27s ; harrow ticks, new 259 to 278 ; old 00s t° zagan, new 23s to 25s ; old 005 to 00s per qr. 441 COLCHESTER, APRIL 26.—Wh ea t, w hit e 425 to to 42s ; barley 22s to 28s ; beans, mazagan 223 to 241 ' 4 and small 24s to 28s; p e a s 26 s t o 28 s per qr . •••--- p r's HADDINGTON, APRIL 25.—The following are grain at our market to-day:— Wheat.

The accused, who never exhibited throughout the in quiry the slightest emotion or concern, then tripped lightly out of the dock, exclaiming, as he passed some friend among the auditory, who told him to keep his courage up, " All right, Bill."
