PETITIONS. The Earl of WINCHILSEA presented several peti• tions against Papal aggression. The Duke of ARGYLE presented a petition from Edin- , burgh very numerously signed against Papal aggression, and that no facilities and titles should be given to Roman Catholic priests in the colonies, and that the grant to Maynooth should be discontinued. He was opposed to Papal aggression, but he did not see the pro priety of mixing up the colonial and Maynooth questions with the question of Papal aggression. MARRIAGES (INDIA) BILL . . Lord BROUGHTON moved the second reading of 3 , Bill. If their Lordships referred to the re .orts on the table, they would see the necessity of 3gWation on this subject. Sir Samuel Romilly, Mr. sergeant Lens, and several other high legal authorities, bad so long ago as 1818 recommended legislation on this subject, and in that recommendation several learned persons who now filled the highest stations in the law bad concurred. They had recommended that divers alterations should take place in the law, and the Commissioners appointed to investigate the sub ject had drawn up a Bill which had been submitted to the authorities in England mad India, and upon their recommendation this Bill was founded. The Commis sioners who recommended this Bill were the late Re corder of London, the late Lord Advocate of Scotland, the late Chief Justice of Bengal, and one whose autho rity would, he knew, be considered as entitled to the utmost respect, Dr. Lushington, the Chief Judge of the Court of Admiralty. The principle of this Bill was the same a s that of ,1836 and with the Aces passed in 1839 for faci litatingof marriages in foreign parts. The clergy in India authorized to celebrate marria g es_ra. number amounted to only 1,049, and their Lordships . wouldaeltt that this was not a su ffi cient number to soiemniz. m arria ges .. throughout the immense extent of our Indian territories. The Bill had been drawn up with the greatest possible eare, but he would notlen gth of saying it was be ready to agree incapable of amendment. He . go the would rove the Bill without to any alteration which would . p_ p i m p rove Noble Lord con cluded with its sec on d princi-ee reading of the Bill. ...tided by moving the _OROUGII said he had no ob jection Earl of ELL B_ EN of the Bill, but he considered the jection. to the principle o f forms which would greatly details were loaded with re tard its operation. The Bill was then read a second time. SUPPLY OF COALS TO THE NAVY . The Ear l of ELLENBOROUGH called th e attention o f the House to the report of Sir H. de l a B eche and Dr. Lyon Playfair, with regard to certain experiments which they had made for testing the ad vantages of diffe rent descriptions of coal in generat i ng steam in the s t e am-vessels of her Majesty's navy. L o rd MINTO said the object of the experiments was not so much to ascertain the power to generate heat of certain descriptions of coal, as to show their relative value in this as well as in other respects, especially as regarded their liability to spontaneous combustion. Their Lordships then advanced several Bills a stage, and adjourned. ~.m 77_ LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, THE small quantity of Bengals brought rather- more than the average of the February sale's prices.

On Thursday last air, William Powell, a respectable innkeeper, also farming his own land at Tavarney garreg, in Ystradgyulais, was brought up in custody at the Petty Sessions Court, Brecon, charged with burgle riously breaking into the house of David Williams, at Trecastle, in the county of Brecon. Tee peculiar and mysterious circumstances of the case excited great inte rest, especially as one T. Williams, a blacksmith, had been tried and convicted at the last assizes as the perpetrator of the burglary, and had been removed to Woolwich, under sentence of transportation for seven years. The principal witness was a tinker named William Morris, who stated that the prisoner, on the night of the burglary, brought him to the premises of David Williams, on the pretence of g.tting him to drive some pigs to market. Prisoner broke into the house, and witness at once ran away. Subsequently Williams, the blacksmith, was charged with the burglary, and witness received from the prisoner 51. in money and a note for 101. as hush money, the pri soner undertaking, by influencing some of the jury, to procure the acquittal of Williams, who, however, 1V2.:, convicted of the offence. Witness then communicated with the police, as he was anxious to procure the libera tion of Williams, whom he knew to be innocent. S evera l witnesses deposed to having seen the prisoner and Morris together on the night of the burglary, and on several oc casions previously and subsequently to it. It was also shown that Morris had received the note for 101., and other sums of money from the prisoner. David Wil liams, of Trecastle, repeated the evidence he had given at the last assize relating to his house being broken open, his being awoke from sleep, and seeing a man having a light coming upstairs. He swore positively now, as he did then, that the man was Tom the smith, and that he knew him well. On cross-examination he said he held a mortgage on the prisoner's land for 8001., and that the deeds were with Mr. Morgan, solicitor, of Llandovery. The mortgage had been originally for 6001., but he had advanced 200/. more than twelve months since, and on that occasion the prisoner was present when the deeds were deposited with Mr. Morgan, and it was then understood that he was to keep them until the prisoner should make ar rangement as to adjudgment. At the time of the bur glary he had an action of ejectment pending, which the prisoner settled by giving a judgment two or three days before the Brecon assizes. On re-examination witness said that prisoner had been several times in his house on business, but he never let him or any one see where he kept his papers; some papers had been taken out of a drawer on the night of the burglary, and were found in a sieve in the back kitchen. The prisoner, who stated that he would resOrve Ms defence, was committed for trial. THE DUKE OF RUTLAND AND HIS TENANTS. (From the Stamford Mercury.) WALTNA.m.— The sensation caused in this place and the district around by a general enhancement of the rents on all the Duke of Rutland's farms in the lordship, is such as has not been felt for some years; and, coming upon the unhappy tenants at a time when it is impossible to " make both ends meet;" and when the members of his Grace's family are frequently declaring in Parliament and elsewhere that the farmers cannot live even if they had no rent at all to pay, the . propo se d exaction is con sidered yet more extraordinary. How the assertions of the Marquis of Granby and Lord John Manners can be reconciled with the circular from the Duke's steward announcing the increase, is a puzzle which the sufferers have in vain attempted to solve. What would be the effect of another agricultural meeting et Waltham just now, is of course matter of un certainty; but the inns and private houses have for the last week or two rung with grumblings both a u dibl e and deep, and even the Conservative press of the adjoining county has been induced to aid in the outcry. Th e a ff a i r is the more remarkable, inasmuch as in 1831, when the price of wheat was 633. a quarter, the Duke of Rutland (who has ever been deservedly beloved throughout the locality) re duced the rentals in Waltham lordship to the extent of 1,0001, whereas now that the price of wheat grown in the district averages only 365., and many of the farmers had last year fearfully blighted crops, toe rents have been raised as much as 1,2001,, or just 33 per cent. in Waltham lordship a l one. And the worst of th e aff a i r is, say the occupiers, that though a return will be made when corn is below a certain price, the rent is to be proportionately increased when wheat rises beyond 545. per quarter. The following is a copy of the steward's circular:— "Steward's Office, Belvoir Castle, April, 1851. " Sir,—l beg to inform you that the annual rent of your farm, under his Grace the Duke of Rutland, is fixed at the sum of from Lady-day last. A return will be made to you of 10/. per annum, so long as the price of wheat remains under 465., on con dition that you produce bills to show that you have purchased manures to that amount. An increase of the like amount will be made in the event of the price of wheat rising beyond 545. per quarter. The re turns and increase to be governed by the average price of wheat for the previous year.—l am, Si r , your obedient servant, " Joust GREEN." No further comment is necessary; but it is lair to add that there has been a general valuation of the estate, and that in some parishes there has been a reduction. Knipton is reduced something like 4d. an acre; there is also a reduction in Branston and Eaton; but in Croxton and Sultby there is a material increase.

A correspondent has forwarded to us a copy of the writ commanding the execution of this noble criminal:— " George the Second, by the grace of God of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, king, defender of the faith, and so forth, to the Sheriffs of London and Sheriff of Mid dlesex, greeting.

Notice is hereby given, that her Majesty will hold a drawing-room at St. James's Palace, on Thursday, May 15, at two o'clock. KENSINGTON GARDENS. Nye have been requested to give insertion to the fol lowing;—The committee appointed by the inhabitants of Kensington, Paddington, Notting-hill, and Bays water, to obtain petitions and memorials against the formation of the proposed ride in Kensing ton Gardens, request the attention of the pub lic to the following brief statement:—Kensington Gardens include an area of above 350 acre., and have long been open to the public by the gracious permis sion of her Majesty and her Royal predecessors. The gardens form the most extensive and delightful pleasure grounds of the same rural description at tached to any city in Europe. Under the present regulations they are resorted to with a de gree of security from molestation which ladies and children can nowhere else enjoy, not even in the neigh bouring parks. The gardens are not only a source of health and gratification to the inhabitants- of the neighbourhood, but to visitors, especially to invalids from all parts of the metropolis. The proposed ride commencing at Kensington barracks, near the south west corner of the gardens, and proceeding first in an easterly, and then in a northerly direction, as far as Wiyawater, will throw nearly the whole area open to equestri ans , wi ll supersede all the judicious regulations under which admission is now granted, and will destroy in a great measure, the secluded rural aspect which now constitutes the most attractive characteristic of these delightful grounds. The reason assigned for thus defacing one of the most admired features of the chief city in this great empire, is, that- equestrians not enjoying, this year, the full advantage of their usual ride in Rotten-row, are entitled to compensation; and that the most con venient compensation is at the expense of the pedes trians in this royal domain. In answer to this plea, it may be fairly urged that the ride in Rotten row is now frequented by equestrians as in former seasons; and that the necessity of a new ride for their accommodation not yet apparent. That the pe destrians in the gardens are as much entitled to consi deration as the equestrians in Hyde-park. That even a partial and temporary interference with the ride in Rotten-row is no adequate reason for the de secration of Kensington -gardens. That the equestrians once admitted into the gardens, will be sure to maintain their advantage, and procure a permanent, in stead of a temporary order for that purpose. That, in proportion as buildings are created on all sides in the suburban parishes, this beautiful sus in twbe must be come more precious to the inhabitants of the metopolia, and ought to be more resolutely protected and handed down unimpaired to future generations.

ATTEMPTED SALE OF A WIFE. About ten o'clock on Friday morning a large concourse of people assembled opposite the Angel Inn, Stockport, composed principally of parties from Droylesden, to witness the disgraceful exhibition of a man selling his wife by public auction to the highest bidder. The in dividuals immediately eoncerned were Joseph Orme and his wife, Rachael, both factory operatives. They had been married about three years; but, in con sequence of his intemperate habits and violent con duct, they agreed to separate, he retiring to Stock port, and she continuing to work at a mill at Droyles den. Since then the man had contracted an illicit acquaintance with a woman, who was then living with him as his wife. This increased the dislike of the wife, and she meditated how she could most effectually relieve herself of a faithless, worthless husband. It appears that her brother resided in Stockport, and as the mill at Droylesden has ceased work, she accepted an invitation to spend the fair at his house. It was here that her husband proposed to neutralise the marriage con tract by offering his wife for public sale in the market, a process which, it is vulgarly believed, has all the legal efficacy, without the cost, of a divorce The wife at once consented ; and the brother as readily acquiesce& Accordingly the disgusting exhibition took place in the presence of an immense crowd. She was neatly attired, and was a mode lately good-looking young woman. The husband, on the c ontrary , h ad all the appearance of being a dia sipsted fellow; and was nut a favourite with those females who ventured to express an opinion on the subject. The first bidder was a man named Hill, who was employed at the same mill ut Droylesden. He commenced with 7d. ; and the biddings went quietly up to 10s. At this moment Mr. Superintendent Sadler and Mr. Inspector Walker, of the borough police, were seen making their way through the throng, and the sale was fortunately suppressed. A regu lar rush succeeded, amidst Which the husband, wife, and her friends, retreated into the public house, whence they were dislodged by the authorities. The husband suddenly disappeared in the xselie, whilst the wife, accompanied by her brother, after a but pursuit by the curious through the streets, took refuge in the Warren Bulkely Arms. Many or the women, who really believed that the sale of a wire was strictly legal, com plained of the interference of the police, and the hardship of a wife being prevented relieving herself from a worthless husband. Some time elapsed before the wife durst emerge from the inn, the crowd being increased outside. At length, having luckily provided herself with a change of dress, she contrived to escape by the back door, and reaching the railway station, succeeded with out molestation in reaching Droylesden. Orme, the de praved husband, has not since been seen in public.- Manchester Courier. Thos. King, attorney's clerk, Harmer street, Gravesend. John C. Catling, surveyor, Albion-road, Queen's-road.

THE QUEEN V SC.,TT.—THE CLAPHAM CONVENT. Sir F. Taunus:a—My Lord, an application was made some time ago by Mr. Sergeant Shee for leave to file a criminal informatten against the printer and publisher of the Morning Advertiser newspaper, for libels published in that journal upon the inmates of an establishment or nunnery known by the name of the Clapham Convent. The imputations were undoubtedly of a most serious character, attributing to some one of those ladies a breach of the vow of chastity, and that a child had been born there in a mysterious manner. I appear here on behalf of the Morning Advertiser, a paper which now, for the first time, after a period of 50 years, has been brought into a court of justice to answer for anything inserted in its columns. The parties against whom the rule was obtained now think it their duty, upon seeing the affidavits in this matter, to state that they contain a clear and distinct answer to the charge mad.. They further say, that they had not gratuitously made the charge, but that it had arisen from certain rumours which had been circulated in the neighbourhood-- which rumours I mention, not for the purpose of casting the slightest imputation upon those ladies, but for the purpose of showing, that until they had assumed a tangible shape in the columns of a news paper, it was impossible for the parties to chal lenge inquiry into the truth of them. They have done -so, and have brought the matter into eourt in such a way as; to satisfy the parties against whom the application was made; and I may add myself, that there is not the slightest foundation for such a charge being brought against any or the inmates of the convent. And I am happy to be instructed on behalf of the printer and pub lisher of thn Morning Advertiser to declare that there is no truth whatever in the imputations unguardedly made in the libels referred to. They now express their deep regret that those charges should have been made, and now withdraw them altogether. I trust that this will be considered all that is required. Mr. Sergeant SEEN—My Lord, the ladies of the con vent state in their affidavit, that they are not influenced by any vindictive or malicious motives in making the application against the defendant, but solely for the pur pose of vindicating themselves from the imputations cast on them in the falsehoods and calumny contained in the libels. Having heard the statement made by my Learned Friend Sir F. Thesiger, I feel I cannot do better than to receive each reparation as has been made, which is as much as it is now possible for the printer and pub lisher of the Morning Advertiser to give. I shall, there fore, my Lord, consent, on behalf of the parties who have instructed inn, to have the rule discharged, of course on the payment of costs. THE QUEEN V. CHAPMAN. Sir F. THESIGER—My Lord, another application of a similar character has been made against the printer and publisher of the Morning Herald newspaper, for the pub lication of a libel, but under circumstances a little dif ferent from the other one. It appeared that there had been a publication in the Dispatch newspaper, which purported to be a vindication of those ladies from the slanderous report that was circulated against them. The Morning Herald adverted to this publication, and made some strong observations in disparagement of its truth. The parties against whom this rule was obtained also wish me to state here that they are perfectly satisfied there is no foundation whatever for the charge. They now withdraw everythicg that has been published of fensive to these ladies, and consent to pay all the costs which have been incurred in making the application to the Court. Mr. Sergeant SHEE—I also consent to the rule being discharged in this case as in the former. The rules in both cases were accordingly discharged upon the terms mentioned above. IN RE ?ATTESON AND currs. A rule nisi bad been obtained in this case calling upon Messrs. Patteson and Cutts to show cause why they should not pay over to Messrs. Charles and John Bar nard the sum of 9201, received by them in their capa city of attorneys to the applicants from a Mr. George Peacock, as a portion of the purchase-money for a pro perty called the gear's-green Estate, in Essex. It ap peared that the money was received in 1832, when Messrs. PatteSon and Cutts were partners. Since then the partnership had been dissolved. The father of the applicants at his death left five children —the property in question containing 70 scree of land and " Old House Farm." This property was mortgaged for 1,400 L Ac cording to agreement the estate was sold, and the money was to be divided among the children. Messrs. Patteson and Cutts were employed by Mr. Charles Bar nard to effect this purpose. The mortgagee was then preveiki upon to release the livar's-green Estate, and to take as security the Old House Farm. It timber ap peared that an advance of 5004 was made to Henry Bare nerd. an officer in the East India Company's service. In consequence of family differences the arrangements of these accounts with the Barnard. became somewhat complicated. Several applications for a settlement were made to Mr. Cutts, but without effect. Mr. Sergeant Shea this day showed oause against the rule. - - SEABORNE MAILS [N signifies that the mails are sent from the General Post-off&• by the night—and Mby the morning —dispatch.] Sir F. Thesiger appeared for Mr. Patteson, and Mr. E. James was heard iu support of the rule. Elaving stated all the main facts of the case when the rule nisi was obtained, we think it unnecessary to reca pitulate them now. The rule was discharged as against Patteson, bat made absolute against Cutts, and it was ordered that the Master should say how much of the purchase-money re mained in his hands, such balance to be paid over to Barnard, together, with interest up to the time of its payment. i- When made up in From what PLACES.

In our yesterday's paper we gave a summary which we received by electric telegraph of the verdict re turned by the jury in this long- protracted inquiry. We now publish the entire verdict and the observations of the jury thereon, as formally appended to the inquisi tion:— The foreman said—Our verdict is " Accidental Death" in the inquest upon which we have been sitting, and we beg to accompany the verdict with these obser vations:—[The foreman here handed the observations accompanying the verdict to the Coroner.] The CORONER read them as follows:—" Although the jury have not felt justified in recording any other ver dict than that of accidental death, they feel bound to state thir unanimous opinion that great blame attaches to the executive committee of the Birkenhead, Lan eashire, and Cheshire Junction Railway Company, and there was a want of prudence and discretion generally in the conduct of the officers and servants of the com pany along the lino from Chester to Manchester on the day when the melancholy occurrence took place which resulted in the death of the parties as to which the jury have been inquiring. With respect to the loco motive power of the company, it appears that no increase whatever was made for the greatly increased traffic along the line from Chester to Manchester during the Chester race week, and that there was no authorized superintendent of the traffic department along that line appointed, and no precautionary arrangements adopted for the safety of the public in reference to the Sutton Tunnel, where the collision took place on the day above mentioned. The jury find that during the day there was the greatest irregularity in the dispatch and arrival of the trains from Manchester to Chester, and the adver tisement issued by the railway company to the effect that the trains would return from Chester after the races, commencing at 5.30 P.M., and continue running, so soon as filled, to 9 P.M., was in the highest degree objection able, and calculated to lead to confusion and danger. The railway company's locomotive superintendent him self has stated, in the course of his evidence, that he does not consider the stock of engines belonging to the company sufficient for their ordinary traffic; and yet, as the jury have already noticed, no in crease was made for the greatly increased traffic during the Chester races ; and t o t hi s deficiency of locomotive power is to be mainly attributed the la mentable catastrophe which has happened. The jury are decidedly of opinion that the management of the railway in question at the present time is imperfect and inefficient, thereby endangering the safety of the public. In conclusion, the jury recommended that, in order to guard against the recurrence of a similar accident, there should be an authorised servant of the company sta tioned at each end of the Sutton Tunnel, so as to signal to the trains, and thereby prevent two trains from being in the tunnel on the same line at one time. They con sider also that the carriages of the railway company having to pass through a tunnel of such a length as the Sutton Tunnel should be furnished with lights; and th.y desire also to call attention to the shortne,s of the inter. val allowed fur trains following each other on the same line from the terminus and intermediate stations, wf.ich appears to them to be attended with risk, and that the interval should therefore be increased." The COI' , NER having thanked the jury for their care and attention during the inquiry, the proceedings, which had occupied seven days, were brought to a close a few minutes before eleven o'clock.
