EbitiO SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. _ELECTION COMMITTEE.-(T1118 BAY. ST. ii-LBAN'S. At the sitting of the Committee this morning, the CHAIRMAN inquired if the missing witness Waysett was yet forthcoming? ' CLecazas said he TM not; at a later period of the • day he would be able to state what proceedings had been • taken to discover him, but the officer of the House who • had been in search of him was not now attendance. • The room was then cleared; on parties being again admitted the Chairman ordered the evidence to be pro seeded with. Mr. H. Edwards was called in, and ordered to be in attendance until discharged. William Lynes, the witness who was committed on hiturday for prevarication, was brou g ht i n th e custody the officer of the Ser , eant-at-Arms, and placed in the wiiness's chair for furt her examination. Mr. Sergeant KINGLIKE objected to the examination of this witness being proceeded with, as he was under duress. The Learned Sergeant was heard at some length in support of this objection, and the room was again cleared for deliberation. On parties being re-admitted, The CHAIRMAN ordered the Learned Counsel to pro ceed with the examination of this witness. William Lynes was axain examined, but no very material fact was elicited except that, after the elec• tion, the witness remained concealed far some days, with several others, at Mr. Edwards' house ; and, accord ing to his own account, without knowing or inquiring the reason why, for remonstrating against such a course of proceeding. The witness gave his evidence in the same hesitating manner which had drawn on him the censure of the Committee on Saturday. Thomas Atkins, a labouring man of St. Alban's, was the next witness examined—He said he v oted on the last election for M r . B e ll , b ut on all former elections for thirty years he had voted for the blue party. He ceuld not tell why he had changed sides this time. He had had an interview previous to the election with Mr. Ed wards, who left word for him at his (witness's) house to call at the committee-room.. No money passed between tbem,then or at any o ther time, but witness promised to vote for lir. B e ll, on Edwards asking him to do so. After the election witness remained for some time shut up at Mr. , Edwarda' house with several others, he went there at Edwards request, and for no other reason that he knew of. Ildrs. Sarah Atkins, th© wife of the former witness, was - next called. This witness seemed to know nothing, and in spite of repeated cautions from the Chairman, the united efforts of counsel and the Committ ee ,: cou ld produce from her nothing beyond " I don't know," " I can't remember, " I had nothing to do with the elec tion, and I know nothing at all about it." — rile examination of this witness was proceeding when our report left. We understand that a writ of habeas coypus, directed to the Sergeant-at-Arms to produce William Lynes, the witness who was committed to his custody on Saturday by the Committee, has been obtained from Mr. Justice Wightman, the return to which will be made this after noon at the Judg . a's chambers. GERMANY. . I . ll trorriontane bigotry, particularly among the higher classes, i 3 rampant. There has lately been a flagrant example of intolerance near Inspruck. A young country girl was recently delivered of twins; as the father, who was in a military band, was a negro, his offspring was naturally of a somewhat dingy colour. The ignorant viliage priest, having refused to baptise " the children of Satan," the mother, who was ex posed to the taunts and insults of her bigoted coun trymen, put an end to her misery and shame by jumping into the river medical commission, after having examined three insane persons residing near Brun, in Moravia, have given it as their opinion " that the three individuals have lost their senses in consequence of the catechetical discipline to which they were subjected by the Liguorians during con fession."

The left of MALMESBURY gave notice that on Thursday Lord Stanley would present a petition from Guiana on the subject of colonial government. Lord WODEHOUSE presented several petitions against Papal aggression. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the _ward of Farringdon praying for a reform of the corpora tion of London, The Earl of MALMESBURY presented apetition from some parish in Worcestershire praying for an alte ration in the law of rating. ' The Earl of CARLISLE presented a petition praying for the adoption of measures for the suppression of the slave-trade. The Earl of RODEN presented several petitions from places in Ireland against Papal aggression; also several petitions praying for a grant of money to the schools in oonnexion with the National Church, in which the :.icriptares ware taught. The Earl of ENNISKILLEN presented several peti tions from various places in Ireland, praying that the Scripture schools in that country might have a share of the grant for the promotion of national education. MASTERS AND SERVANTS BILL. The Earl of CARLISLE moved the second reading of this Bill, the object of which was to protect children placed out in service by the parochial authorities frem the cruelties which had been it .dieted upon the unfortunate victim of the Sloanes. The Noble Earl ex plained the enactments of the Bill, which established a system of periodical inspection on the part of the boards of guardians, and the details of which have been frequently given. Lord REDESDALE was opposed to the measure, as one which would render it impossible for paupers to be placed out. What need had a great boy of e i g h teen o f such protection? Besides, no farmer would take a pauper if he was exposed to have the guardians co m i ng and asking all aorta of questions of their servants, The Earl af CARLISLE alluded to the Sloanes' case as a proof of the necessity of some such measure as the present. Tba Bill was then read a second time. PAPAL AGGRESSION. Lord CAMPBELL presented a petition from Ayr against Papal aggression. The petition prayed that a measure might be passed prohibiting the Roman Catho lic prelat es from assumingterritorial titles, enacting that all bequests made to them e ' under those titles should be made null and void; that all acts that they might per form, and such titles should be void; and that a measure should be introdaced to prevent all synodical action on their part. I.le wo u ld not say one word as to the prayer of the petition, but he would take the opportunity of protesting against the doctrine that all religious persua sions had a right to do whatsoever they might consider necessary to the unlimited development of their religion. They had no right t o do anything under the pretence of religious development which would interfere with the kbecties and rights of others. MUTINY BILL. On the motion of the Duke of WELLINGTON, the Mutiny Bill and the M ar i ne Mutiny Bill were respec tively' read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow. COUNTY COURTS EXTENSION BILL. Lord BEAUMONT wished to know whether the Noble and Learned Lord on the Wo o l sac k meant to morrow to move the repri nting of th e C ounty Courts Extension Bill; and if so, what alterations he proposed to make in it? lie himself was in favour of the princi ple of the Bill; but he should move in Committee the omission of the reconcilement clause and also of the 35th clause, and should propose special legislation with re gard to causes above 20/. The LORD CHANCELLOR should not oppose the committal of the Bill, but in Committee he should move the ' omission of the arbitration and reconcilement clauses, and he would suggest the propriety of the equity jurisdictio n clauses being o mitted in this Bill, and th a t legislation o n t h e subject s h ou ld take place in the Chan cery Reform Bill . He should also suggest alteratiors in the latter clauses and i n the c l au ses ploy meat of attorneys' clerks relating to the em. i n t h e se courts. Lord BEAUM ONT and Lora' Bit ouGai l4 severally ex p plained, and the su bj ect drop d Their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS . The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock. The Sheriffs of London appeared at the bar of the and presented a House,petition against the removal of Smithfield-market. ST. ALBAN'S ELECTION. The Sergeant-at-Arms appeared at the bar and in slermed the House that he had had committed to his cus tedy the body of William Lynes, a witness charged with prevarication before the Select Committee of the House of Commons sitting to inquire into a petition presented against the St. Albans elGetion, and that since that time he bad received a writ of Izabeas corpus f:om Mr. Justice Wightnaan, calling upon him to produce the body of the sait! William Lynes before him at his chambers. THIRD READING. The Bangor and Carnarvon ltailsvay, and the Shrews bury and Bridgnorth Turnpike-roads Bill were read a third time. Mr. E. ELLICE presented a report from the Com mittee sitting on the St. Alban's election, informing the House that on Saturday last they had committed the body of William Lyr es, to the custody of the Ser geant-nt- Arms, charged with gross prevarication, and that the said witness had been produced before the Committee this day, and had then answered satisfactorily the questions put to him by the Committee. Also that it appeared in evidence beforo the Committee that an esgiNtzal witness of the nano of George Seeley Waysett had hitherto evaded all attempts to secure his attendance before the Committee, and one John Hayward in conjunction with Henry Edwards, had given money to Waysett, to induce him to abstain from appearing before the Committee. In respect of the said William Lynes, as he had answered all questions put to him that day, he should move that he be discharged from the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms, and with regard to the other three who had been proved, one to have knowingly abstained from presenting himself, and the other two to have been concerned in inducing him to re main away, he would move that the warrant of the Speaker be issued directing the Sergeant-at-Arms to take them into custody. The motion for the discharge of William Lynes from custody was then agreed to. Sir G. GREY said the question was whether any power of the House would be lost by delay, otherwise he should propose that the report be printed, and the discussion of the question be adjourned until to to morrow. Mr. E. ELLICE said that a warrant from the Speaker would certainly have more effect than any other pro ceeding in procuring the attendance of the missing wit nesses. After a few words from Sir B. HALL and Mr. ADAIR, Mr. SOTIIERON moved that the conduct of the three persons named be declared a breath of the privi leges of that House. Sir G. CLERK said that was certainly the complexion which the conduct of the parties took, and at the Ipswich Election Committee, when the parties had behaved in a similes manner, the House had not hesitated a single moment iu declaring it a breach of privilege. Lard J. RUSSELL said there could be no doubt that the conduct of the parties described did constitute a breach of privilege. Sir G. CLERK thought:that Waysett ought first to be taken into custody, inasmuch as he had concealed himself, and by so doing had rendered himself unable to give that service to the Committee in the way of evi dence, which the House required. Sir R. H. INGLIS conceived that in violating the rules of the House the parties implicated had violated the law of the land. The motion was then put, and it was unanimously agreed that Hayward, Edwards, and Waysett should be taken into custody by the Sergeant -at-Arms. Lord J. RUSSELL supposed that when these parties were taken into custody, they would of course be ordered to attend at the bar of the House. The SPEAKER replied in the affirmative. Sir G. GREY said that an order should be made to release William Lynes from the custody of the Sergeant at-Arms. His case was very different from that of the others. They had violated the rules of the House, and had consequently been guilty of a breach of privilege; but in Line's case the Committee had specially reported that in the return for the borough of St. Alban's, Lyne had violated an Act of Parliament, and therefore the re port stated that the warrant should have been annexed to the return. Lord JOHN RUSSELL then moved that the order should be discharged. An order was accordingly made to that effect. PETITIONS. Mr. DIVETT presented a petition from Exeter in favour of a modification of the tax on carriages. Mr. HEALD presented 15 petitions from congrega tions of Wesley an Methodists in England and Scotland, praying for an efficient legislative enactment against Pap3l aggression. Mr. WELBY presented two petitions from Grantham and the hamlets, and from a Wesleyan congregation of the same place, for more stringent provisions in the Ec clesiastical Titles Bill, and one petition from merchants and traders of Grantham for a repeal of the duty on paper. Mr. ROBARTES presented petitions from the Wes leyan Methodists of Port Isaac, Gorram, and St. Ewe, Sawney, St. Blayey-gate, Sticken, and Polygooth anu Wadebridge, against Papal aggression. Mr. E. Macnaghten, Lord Duncan, Mr. Wilcox, and other members presented petitions against the Papal aggression. PAYMENTS FOR PUBLIC MEETINGS OUT OF PAROCHIAL POOR-RATES. Mr. REYNOLDS presented a petition from the rate payers of ISt. Luke's, Middlesex, stating that last week the sum of 171.: 16s. had been paid: out of the poor rates for the satisfaction of the expenses of a meeting to repress the Papal aggression. Similar expenses had also been paid eat of the rates on account of a meeting respecting the Post•office. The ratepayers prayed the House to institute an inquiry, and pass an Act to enable the ratepayers to appeal to the County Ccurt for the re storation of all sums under 501. that might be improperly paid out of the rates. Mr. MA STERMAN presented a petition from the Lord Mayor and Corporation of Dublin against the abolition of the military asylum at Kilmainham. Mr. HEADLAM presented a petition against the continuance of the income-tax. THE SUN, NOTICES OF MOTION. Mr. REYNOLDS gave notice that in going into Com mittee on the Ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Bill he should call the attention of the House to the dreadful mortality that had occurred in the Kilrush Union work house. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE gave notice that on Wednesday he should move for copies of all correspondence that had taken place between the Government and all foreign powers on the affairs of Rome during 1849. Lord DUNCAN gave notice that he should postpone his motion on the window-tax sine die. WOODS AND FORESTS. Viscount DUNCAN asked the First Commissioner of Woods, Forests, &c., whether it was the intention of the Government, during the course of the present session, to bring in a Bill to make better provision for the manage ment of the Woods, Forests, and Land Revenues of the Crown, and for the direction of Public Works and Build ings ; and if so, at what period of the session it was likely that the Bill will be produced? Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to say that it was the intention of the Government to introduce a Bill on the subject as early after Easter as possible. MANAGEMENT OF CHURCH LANDS. Mr. E. DENISON wished to know whether a Bill had been prepared with regard to the management of church lands, and when it would be laid co the table of the House? Sir GEORGE GREY said a Bill had been prepared by the Commission which had been appointed, but it had subsequently undergone considerable alteration. How ever, it was now in a state to be presented to the House, and he believed it would be presented before Easter. DUTY ON FIRE POLICIES. Mr. HUME presented a petition from the provost and magistrates of Montrose, against the duty on tire policies. SUNDAY TRADING BILL. The Hoz. MEMBER also presented a petition from Marylebone, against the Sunday Trading Bill. REDUCTION OF DUTY ON COFFEE AND TIMBER. Mr. MOFFATT wished to ask the Chancellor of Exchequer when he intended that the proposed reduc tion of the duty on coffee and timber should come into effect? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he was anxious that the reduction should take place as soon as possible, but as he had no control over the House it was impossible for him to fix any particular day. THE NEW HOUSE-TAX. Sir J. DUKE wished to know whether the Chancellor of the Exchequer intended th a t ware h ouses , w hi c h were not before charged with window duty, should now come under the operation of the house-tax? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—No houses which do not come under the description of in habited houses will be assessed to the tax. Mr. Alderman SIDNEY wished to know whether shops which . were part of house, would be included in tax. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that such premises as those described by the Hon. Al derman would be liable to the tax of 63. in the pound, instead of 9d., as other houses were taxed. Air. J. WILLIAMS inquired whether houses would be rated to the tax under the poor-rate assessment or under a new one? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that he proposed that the assessment should be on the annual value of the houses, but at present he would not confine himself to any particular mode of getting at the value. He certainly should not take poor-rates as sessment, because then parishes would have the power of limiting the amount of income-tax which they would have to pay at their own pleasure. THE BUDGET. RE-IMPOSITION OF THE INCOME-TAX. Mr. BERNAL brought up the report of the Com mittee of Supply. Mr. HERRIES rose, according to notice' to move, as an amendment, " That it is the opinion of this House that the respectiue duties in Great Britain on profits arising from property, professions, trades, and offices, and the stamp duties in Ireland, granted by two Acts passed in the sixth year of her present Majesty, and which have been continued and amended by several subse quent Acts,' were granted for limited periods, and to meet temporary exigencies: That it is highly expedient to adhere to the declared intentions of Parliament when these duties were granted and continued; and, in order to secure their speediest practicable cessation, to limit the renewal of any portion of them to such an amount as may be sufficient, in the existing state of the public revenue, to provide for the expenditure sanctioned by Parliament, and for the due maintenance of public credit." He said in rising to address the House in the hope of inducing them, by the reasons which he had to offer to coincide with his amendment ho begged to say that he had seen with great satisfaction the: statement in the public papers of the great increase in the revenue of the country as exhibited in the quarter's return. That consideration added great weight to that which he had to s ay, It was on account of the prosperity and o f the means which the increased prosperity would afford to the House of accomplishing an act of justice, that ho now Caine foprrwaapradaititen: t entering attempt into permission of the House, ex presslyfore the House iandh the e e country with this He would now, wi t h o m uldno s t a te that ho shou h l e d ar r . e ) fra H m e tr w o t t h ie e ar s , tatements of the Chancellor of order to keep himself • strictly to an y impugndetails n e o n; of the Exchequer, but in to the question, he would willingly accept a ll his st a t ements . H e a ccepted all his statements a s if they were s t r i c tly corrcc, r .— (Hear 9 hear, and cheer s .) But whilst he did that he must at the same time express his expectations that there would year by year be a larger surplus in the revenue.—(Hear' hear.) He ac knowledged that he could not refrain from stating his expectation that there would be a larger surplus was only obtained 'ender the statements of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that there was now a surplus of 1,890,0004 applicable to the necessities of the country. Yet, however ho might enjoice in this surplus, he had still to allow some 22,0004 or 23,000/. for the expenses of the vier, B.) hear •) jous t now , LON DON, remind the House that the fact was, that the property and income tax ivas first imposed for a period of three years, and that it seas imposed in 1842 only to satisfy the temporary exigencies of the country.—(Hear, hear.) He took the right of supposing that the income. tax as now proposed was the income tax which was originally instituted, for if it had not been so, ho was quite sure that the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in making his statement to the House would have said so. Had he not said so, he (Mr. Herries) would have been obliged to suspect the Right Hon. Baronet of a practice to which he little thought him liable.—(Hear, hear.) He expected, therefore, that it was the income-tax which he intended to propose, and that it was intended to propose it for three years.—(" Hear, hear," from Sir Charles Wood.) He was glad to accept that admission, and he should reason upon it as a conclusion in his argument.— (Hear, hear.) He must now review the history of the income-tax. It should be recollected that it was imposed in 1842 by Sir Robert Peel, in order to relieve the couatry from -its difficulties with regard to financial matters.—(Hear, hear.) He trusted that he should be excused from referring to the fact that this deficiency of 3,800,000/. was constituted by !the Whigs, and that the income-tax was imposed to meet this deficiency, to remove the obstruction of trade, and to facilitate the action of com merce. Now Sir R. Peel distinctly declared, and there could be no doubt about the fact, that he took this tax hs a temporary measure, and for a special purpose. He took it, as stated in the words of the amendment, for a temporary purpose, and to meet a special emer gency. He then stated distinctly that he be lieved a period of five years would be sufficient for the accomlishment of the purpose, but that he would only take the tax for three years, in the hope that there would be no necessity for its renewal. It so happened, however, that in 1845 Sir Robert Peel came to ask for its renewal, which was granted under the then especial circumstances of the country. In 1848 there was another extension of the tax, but at that time the country was suffering from extreme com mercial distress, and therefore its renewal then was no breach of the principle to which he was about to call the attention of the House. The Noble Lord, however, with some degree of lenity, asked the House not only to renew the tax but to augment it, but the House refused to sanction the latter part of the Noble Lord's proposition, and eventually it was not persevered in. That brought them down to the pre sent period; but before he proceeded now to ask the House to refuse the continuance of the tax altogether, he wished to direct the attend on of the House to the opinions of men of the highest eminence, who had filled the most responsible offices of the state, as to the peculiar character of this tax.—(Hear, hear.) He did not propose to use the extracts which he should take the liberty of reading as ad argument= ad hominen, he used them because they contatned in themselves expression of sound truth and judgment, which he ventured to hope the House would be disposed to adhere to on the present occasion. It would be un necessary for him to read to them the opinions of Sir Robert Peel, because the terms in which Sir Robert Peel introduced the tax in 1842 must be fresh in the recollection of everybody. For the reasons he had already stated, Sir Robert Peel induced the House in the first instance to adopt his proposition; and on the second occasion, when he pressed the conti nuance of the income-tax, he expressly declared that he did hope that within the time the tax was to be extended to, provision would be made by alte rations and augmentation of the revenue to render any further renewal of the income-tax unnecessary. When Sir R. Peel proposed the renewal of the income tax he did not receive unqualified support. Those who now sat in opposition expressed themselves very strongly against the tax, but not so much with re ference to its being then imposed as to its cha racter. They agreed as to its renewal, but were opposed to the form in which it is levied. It was opposed by Lord John Russell, Mr. Labouchere, Lord Howick, and though last, not least, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer.—(Hear, hear.) The words, then, used by the present Prime Minister deserved the serious attention of the House on the present solemn occasion, when they were about to determine whether they should or should not have a permanent income-tax. The Noble Lord, in 1842, said the evil of the income tax was not confined to the sum drawn from the pockets of the people, that he considered it an inquisitorial tax, and that it ought only to be resorted as a last resource in periods of difficulty.—(Hear, hear.) Again, in 18-15, he said it was a tax subject to some of the greatest objections which could be urged against any tax, that he was of opinion that inequality of tax ation and fraud were inherent qualities of the tax. —(Hear, hear.) Then, again, when the Noble Lord asked for a continuance of the tax in 1848, ho did so on the ground that almost unparalleled distress existed at the time in the country. The Noble Lord did not on that occasion offer any other reason why they should again resort to the tax for a further period.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Labouchere, now the President of the Board of Trade, also said, in 1848, " God forbid, that under the present difficulties of the country, they should require the House to adopt such a measure as the imposition of a house-tax, adding that he would resort to any other means rather than adopt such a system of taxation, which was alien to the habits of the people of this country, and which was carried into effect in an inquisitorial manner, and attended with vexatious proceedings infinitely more annoying than the amount of money taken from the people's pockets."—(Hear, hear.) Now, as the country was not now under the pressure of those difficulties which existed at that time, these arguments applied with ten-fold force against the re-imposition of the tax this year. Lord Howick said that on the prin ciple of justice and sound policy he was of opinion that the House ought to restrict the imposition of a tax so excediugly odious as that proposed by Sir R. Peel They were tole," said that Noble Lord, " that taxation ought to be equal, but was anything more monstrously unequal than a property-tax."—(Hear, hear.) The First Lord of the Admiralty, who had always been a consistent and arduous opponent of the tax, had said, in 1845 and 1848, that he yielded only to necessity, and to the prospect of a failing revenue in giving any degree of support to the tax; he hoped, therefore, he might challenge that Right Hon. Gentle man's vote on this occasion in favour of his amendment. He put it to the Noble Lord at the head of the Government the question how, without necessity, when there was no emergency imperatively to demand, he could now pro pose the re-imposition of this tax, in which vexation, in justice, and fraud were, according to the account of his own party, inherent acd inseparable. He called upon the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, who had stigmatised this tax when in opposition, whether they had changed their opinions nuw? He himself was but too im pressed with the fact that the tax was vexatious and injurious. He know that the farmer who was losing money every day. The merchant, whose affairs were sub ject to the inquisition of the tax, and the professional man, whose hard-earned profits were unfairly and unequally pressed upon, were fully convinced that this tax was vexatious and unjust. The just claim for reduction, h• contended, was the income-tax. He could not see where was the great benefit of the proposal of the Chancellor of the Exchequer—he did not pro pose to make anything cheaper, or to give any great relief to any great class of the country. It was evident that anyone who adopted the opinions generally expressed, that It was the intention of the Government that this tax should continue. He, therefore, invited the House seriously to ,con sider this proposition on the very first occasion, which had ever been available.—(Hear, hear.) He was quite aware of the difficulty of adjusting that tax. — (Hear, hear.) As a temporary tax he believed that nobody whatever would hesitate to accede to it, and he believed that not any of the friends of Sir Robert Peel would have attempted for a moment to say that it was not Sir Robert's intention in any way to make it a permanent tax.—(Hear, hear.) He spoke as one who had a right to speak upon this subject, for although not Ue office, he had been on terms the most confidential with that great statesman during the concoction of the in come-tax—(Hear, hear)—and he could of his own know ledge say that it was only intended as a temporary im position to meet a temporary exigency.—(Ceeers.) And yet that was now the course pursued by the Noble Lord. He intended to make this tax a permanent one. The Noble Lord intended to in troduce this measure to-night, but he would tell him that if he did it would be torn to tatters before it passed through the House.—(Hear, hear.) He would now ask Hon. Gentlemen who were Members from Ireland, how it would affect their country ? Sir Robert Peel in introducing this measure, had given good reasons why the Act for imposing the income-tax should not extend to Ireland. That great man had always been consistent, and he (Hr. Herries) knew that the reasons on which he acted were always valid; and he himself would say that if it was now proposed to extend this Act to Ireland with all its ineqealities, with all its wrongs, with all its injustice, he must certainly vote against the motion.—(Hear, hear.) Had the great man who originally imposed that tax been now below amongst them he (Mr. Herries) would never have made that motion, for he was quite sure to moot the question and to move for an abolition of the tax.—(Hear, hear.) It appeared from the state. ment that there was now a surplus from the income-tax of about 1,550,0001. The Right Hon. Gentleman shook his head. Well, then, he would make a composition with the Right Hon. Gentleman, and take the surplus al 2,000,0001. (LEFT SPEAKING.) TATTERSALL'S - THIS EVENING. SIX O'CLOCK.

Of the nature of the projected voyage to the Arctic Seas by Mr. Kennedy and his crew of Orkney men, in search of Sir Jon Franklin, a few notes are supplied by the John 0 . Groat Journal. Mr. Kennedy is now at Aberdeen, where the little ship, the " Priace Albert," is fitttng out. The route to be followed is by Lancaster Sound, then down Prince Regent's Inlet as far as possible. The ship is then to be moored in some harbour, and two boats will be desdatched in various directions according to circumstances, or as the openings in the ice may present. One boat it is intended to bring overland to the western shore, at Cresswell or Brentford Bay in the direction of the magnetic pole. The other will be sent south wards to Felix Harbour, and will cross Boothia Isthmus, and after striking the sea-coast will pro ceed by Sir James Ross's Strait to meet the other boat. After meeting, they will again diverge and explore westward. It is then intended that one of the boats be dispatched in the direction of Simp son's Straits, whilst the other will be directed north west with a view to come on the track of Dr. Rae and his party. Mr. Kennedy has been thirteen years in the service of the Hudson's Bay Company, and spent eight years of that period in Labrador. Knowing the country, and the abundance of deer, salmon, and marine animals, he has the firm persuasion that at least a portioa of Sir James Franklin's party are yet alive. He goes out with out fee or reward, animated by a pure devotion to the service. The crew consists of seventeen persons, nearly all natives of Orkney. The expedition is to be conducted on teetotal principles; and the ship will be ready for sea by the end of this month. She carries three boats —one of mahogany, one of common materials, and one of gutta percha. Messrs. Duthie, of Aberdeen, are building a boat specially for Mr. Kennedy's use. It is to be twenty-two feet long, only two feet wide at the midships, or broadest part, and after being covered with hide or gutta percha, with one person set in it— canoe fashion—is calculated to draw only three inches of water, the depth of the boat is to be twelve inches at the seat. It is intended to propel this extraordinary craft after the manner of the natives of these regions— the Esquimaux—by a double-bladed oar, and the person seated in it will be covered up with a skin dress, but toned to the chin and fastened to the deck, that in the event of its being swamped, it can easily be righted again without any water getting into it. Mr. Kennedy con templates not only using this boat for crossing rivers over ice, and down rapids, but to make it his couch of repose all night, by simply pulling a blanket over him, and there repose in a temperature that makes one freeze to think of it. Ile has been accustomed to these hard ' ships, and has stood many nights in similar circum stances, with the thermometer 40 to 50 degrees below zero; often, too, with no covering but the canopy of heaven. The Prince Albert will be provisioned for two years. All success attend her. Letters have been received from Commander Pullen, the officer in charge of the boat party from the Mackenzie River, in search of Sir John Franklin. They are dated Fort Good Hope, Mackenzie River, July 17, 1850, and detail the proceedings of the party, who were upon the point of starting, and hoped to reach the sea about the 23d of that month. The season had been extraordi narily fine, and the party were confident of an open sea. Others also, natives of the country, were of the same opinion. Should they find provisi ons a nd fu e l pl ent if u l on Banks's Land, it is possible that they might winter there, for the further prosecution of the search next season.—lnverness Courier. SUPPOSED LOSS OF THE NEW YORK PACKET. SHIP IVANHOE. We regret to state that little doubt now remains as to the fate of the splendid New York line of packet-ship Ivanhoe and her officers and crew, respecting whose loss grave apprehensions have recently been entertained. Hitherto no public notice of the fact of the ship's non arrival has been taken, from a disposition to hope even against hope; but by the royal mail steam-ship Asia ac counts were received from Savannah, on Saturday evening, which render it unnecessary and futile, we fear, any longer to preserve silence. Most of our readers will remember that some months ago the Ivanhoe, whilst in a storm at sea, lost her Commander, Captain Knight, who was swept overboard, unseen, from the poop. Her then chief mate afterwards received the command, and when the Ivanhoe last left New York, early in February, was making, we believe, his voyage hither in that capacity. Subsequently to her departure from New York the Ivanhoe was observed by the Joseph Walker, which arrived in the Mersey on the 13th ultimo, ashore on Nantucket Shoals during a fresh gale of wind, with her sails spread. H e r arriv a l at thi s port was, however, daily expected, but without avail; and at length grave fears of her safety were awakened by the fact that large quantities of wreck such as would belong to a ship of the Ivanhoe class had been passed off the Shoals in question. On Saturday, however, circumstantial evidence of a more marked character arrived in Liverpool ; namely, a re port from Savannah that the ship Julia Howard, whilst on her passage from Boston to that city, passed, on the 12th ult., in lat. 30 34, long. 71, a quantity of wreck and picked up a broken oar, upon the blade of which the word Ivanhoe was stamped. Bales of cotton and casks, with the private marks thereon, had also been picked up; and, al though the discovery of abroken oar cannot alone be taken as evidence of the ship being entirely last, with all her crew, yet, combined with the other evidence already alluded to, we fear it must destroy even the remotest hope entertained of the Ivanhoe's safety. The Ivanhoe was a fine ship, of about 1,300 tons register, and was formerly commanded by Captain Edwards, well known as having made several quick passages in her between this port and New York. She was quite a favourite ship with both passengers and shippers of merchandise. —Liverpool Albion.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The members of the Portsmouth Royal Naval Club have invited Admiral Sir John Ommanney, K.C.8., to a❑ extra club dinner, previous to his removing from that neighbourhood, to take the appointment as Commander in-Chief at Plymouth. The dinner will take place at the Portland Hotel, Southsea, on the 22d inst., when Admiral Sir Bladen Capel is expected to take the chair. The Gallant Admiral Sir J. Ommanney may be con sidered the founder of this club, and he is held in high estimation by the members, who have thought it right to pay him the complement of a farewell dinner. We understand that Admiral Sir John Ommanney will take the son of his esteemed friend, the late Admiral Warren, as his flag lieutenant. Mr. F. P. Warren is now serving us flag lieutenant to Commodore Lord:John Hay, Superintendent of Devonport Dockyard. THE STEAM BASIN AT PORTSMOUTH.—It is supposed that some further progress will be made towards the completion of this work during the ensuing summer. For the last twelve months nothing has been done, and the plant is rotting. The inlet, or doek, at the south east corner of the basin is to be completed; but the inlet, or dock, at the north east corner of the basin will, it is said, be filled up and levelled over, leaving the stone work, &c., in the present state, that it may be again excavated and completed, if required. If this be true, we think it bad economy; it would be doubling the expense, merely for the sake of deferring it for a year or two. Wind—N.E., moderate and cloudy. Bear-Admiral Sir John Hill, late captain•superin tendent of Deptford, has received his now commission. A congratulatory address to the gallant officer on his elevation to his flag rank is talked of. Vice-Admiral Sir G. Seymour, C. 8., in his flag-ship Cumberland, 70, Captain Seymour, is by this time clear of the Channel. PROMOTION. - - Engineer—Edward Blackburne, to be acting chief. ♦PPOINTMENTS. Lieutenants—James Byrn Kin:man, to be in com mand of the Romney coast-guard station, vice Mr. Saun ders, appointment cancelled; William Henry Goslen, from Cloggan to Ballycotton station, vice Mr. Edwards, removed. Mate—H. G. Douglas, to the Victory, flag-ship at Portsmouth. Assistant Engineers—Thomas T. Murray, R. L. Canney, and Thomas Duncansor, to tho Tartarus steam vessel, fitting at Woolwich; John Singer, to the Ajax, 60, screw guard-ship, Queenstown; R. T. Martell, to the Retribution steam-frigate, Devonport. Argus steam-corvette, will be taken out of dock, at Portsmouth, on the 12th, and will be completed by the 30th. Advice steam-tender has proceeded from Queenstown to Bristol, and relieved Sparrow in her service of raising men for the Prince Regent, the Sparrow, under Com mander Fraser, having been ordered to resume her sur veying duties on the coast of Ireland. Caradoc steam-packet, fitting at Woolwich, for Medi terranean, will not be completed by the shipwrights before the 30th inst. Her machinery will be all right by the Bth inst. Diligence transport, Charles Mitchell master com manding, arrived at Devonport on Friday, from Wool wich and Deptford, laden with stores for Bermuda. Mr. John Martin, first clerk to the naval storekeeper at Ber muda, will take a passage in her. Penelope. 16, steam-frigate, Captain Lyster, fitting at Portsmouth for the broad pendant of Commodore Bruce, has had her complement increased to 313; she will be ready to go out of harbour on the 12th, and will be ready for sea on the 16th inst. She is manned within half-a-dozen ratings, kept open. Prince Regent, 90, Captain Harris, will be out of the hands of the dockyard at Portsmouth by the 17th, and will go out of harbour on the Ist May, and be ready for sea on the sth prox. She is about 200 blue jackets short. Shearwater's (steam-vessel) machinery is to be made good at Woolwich, at the expense of 4001. THE COAST OF AFRICA. —•— - The Rattler, 6, screw steam-sloop, Commander Arthur Cumming, arrived at Spithead on Saturday morning, from the coast of Africa. Her dates are—St. Helena, Jan. 30 ; Ascension, Fda. 10; Sierra Leone, Feb. 26; and the Gambia, March 8. The Wasp, screw steam-ship, Commander Crozier, and the Tortoise, guard-ship, Captain Hutton, were at As cension; and the Centaur, steam-frigate, Acting Captain Patten, with the broad pendant of Commodore Fanshawe, and the Cygnet, 6, Commander W hite, were at Sierra Leone. The islands and squadron were healthy. The Heroine, Commander March, was the next vessel for England, to be followed by the Phoenix, steam•sloop, Commander Lysaught. The Rattler came home entirely under canvas, having left all her coals for the use of the squadron; her engines are said to be in excellent order. She has been principally cruising in the Bights and on the south coast, and has been very fortunate, having taken eight vessels, three of them full of slaves, in all about 900. It is expected that the share of prise money for an able seaman on board the Rattler will amount to about 501., thus more than doubling his pay for the two years' cruise. There appears at the present time to be nothing doing on the coast; the cruisers on the coast cf Brasil, and the new regulations there, have nearly stopped that traffic, and what is now doing in the African coast is by Por tuguese vessels. Dr. Jones, late of the Hospital at Ascension (re lieved by Dr. John Davidson), and Mr. Loder, mate of the late Snap, have come home passengers in the Rattler. The Snap had been broken up at Ascension. The remains of the Flamer had been sold to the Liberian Government; and the engines that were formerly in the (late) Albert, steamer, have been brought home in the Rattler. Rattier has been very healthy during her term of ser ' vice. She has only lost one person by death, namely, Mr. Chace, tho chief engineer, who died about twelve months back from fever. Rattler proceeded on Saturday evening for Woolwich to pay off. Ilecla, steam-sloop, Commander Beauchamp, was off the Congo. Phcenix, screw-sloop, Commander Lysaght, off Coquimbo. Philomel, 6, Commander Forbes, off Benguela. Sealark, 8, Commander Sotheby, off Am britx; and the remainder of the squadron in the Bights. Centaur was expected to proceed to the South Coast shortly after the Rattler sailed for Sierra Leone.

VESSELS SPOKEN WITH. Warwick barque, standing S., Feb. 16, on the Line. John Line, from London for Port Natal, March 7, in lat. 5 N., long. 22 W. vice, and tt - ,e St. Vincent. 101 guns, will succeed the Britannia in the harbour duty. the London, 90, is ordered to he brought forward at Sheerness to replace the Ocean flag-ship there. The Marlborough, 120, building in this yard, is com plete in her frame. There are now four first-rate ships standing on adjoining slips to eac h ot h er i n th i s yard, 'a feature nowhere else to be met with in the kingdom, or most probably out of it. The other ships are the Royal Frederick, 120; Prince of Wales, 120; and Royal Sove reign, 120. The Royal Frederick has begin on the stocks 10 years, so when the four will come off seems rather a remote probability. The Royal Frederick is built after the queen; the other three are upon the same model, lengthened by six feet, being 210 feet long between the perpendiculars, and 60 feet in extreme breadth, with a tonnage of 3,185 tons. The original designs for these ships were by Sir William Symonds; the alterations have been made since the appointment of Sir Baldwin Walker to the surveyorship of the navy. WooLwlcrr, Aram s.—The Tartarus steam vessel, Lieutenant Commander Risk, was taken out of the basin to-day, and will soon be ready to leave for the coast of Scotland, to protect the fisheries in that quarter. The officers of the Govern°le, Sardinian steam-frigate, entertained a number of the officers of the Royal Artil lery on board the vessel to-day. The London, 90, at Sheerness, is to b© taken down on Monday to the station occupied by the Ocean, 80, Cap tain Henry Greville, and flag-ship of Vice-Admiral the lion.

He was wounded at the assault of the breach of St. Sebas tian—lost the left leg above the knee. He received the silver war medal with two clasps for Maida and St Sebastian. PLYMOUTH, SATURDAY.—IIer Majesty's steam.sloop Magicienne, iu charge of Mr. Brown, secoi.d-master at tendant, having had her ballast shifted and restowed, left the port on Thursday for a trial cruise in the Channel, and returned again this afternoon. The Retriburion steam-frigste, which arrived from Lisbon on the 25th ult., having been refitted and coaled, is now ready for sea, and is waiting sailing orders,which will in all probability be for the Cape of Good Elope. The Rhadamanthus steam vessel, Master Commander Belam, which arrived on Tuesday from Sheerness with arms and ammunition for the forces at the Cape, has also shipped here from the dockyard 100,0001 in specie for the same purpose. Her crew were paid wages in the pay-office at the dockyard this morning, and in the afternoon she sailed for her destination. A melancholy event took place i❑ connexion with her departure. Mr. Smithers Aldess, Inspector of Police at The Royal Wil liam Victualling-yard, accompanied by Mrs. Aldess, an unmarried daughter, and Mrs. Mills, who is the wife of Mr. Mills, one of the engineers of the Rhadamanthus, left their residence in the yard, and proceeded to the water's edge to observe the steamer going out of Ha 111023 e. When on the Clarence-wharf where they waved their hands to their friend on board, and immediately afterwards Mr. Aldess fell in a fit of apoplexy brought on probably by the excitement, and being conveyed home, expired within half an hour. Deceased was 63 years of age, and was formerly sergeant-major of the Woolwich division of the Royal Marines; OR retiring he joined the Government police either there or at Dept ford, and came here several years since to undertake the duties of inspector, from which he has been cut off in such an untimely manner.
