DEATH OF REDGATE, TILE CRICKETER. A fortnight since this once eelebrated bowler, for years the pride of his own eleven, and the terror of his adversaries, breathed his lest at OA Redford, near Nuttinghena after three years of painful cuff r ing. The lamentabl bodily cenditin io which Redgate had fallen was e the efret of o the habits in which he bad indulged for several years preceding this last event, and not nnfrequent were the pecuniary aids which were tendered to him by his friends and others who had been his admirers in his palmy days, when, from the severity of the then attack, he was un able to follow any vocation whereby he could earn the ordinary means of subsistence. It will be seen from the following outline of his history, which we extract from Mr. Denison's Sketches of the Players, published in 1846, that at time of his death, Redgate, had he lived until the 27th of July next, would b svecom pleted his 41st year. "Samuel Redgate was born at Arnold, about four miles from Nottingham, on the 27th of July, 1810. He stands 5 feet 81 inches in height and weighs when in health 12 stone. Redgate is a lace maker. He had several years been celebrated as a bowler of much eminence, ere he came up to Lord's, in the season of 1835, where he made hie first appearance in a match—' The Mary lebone Club v. The St. John's Wood Club.' His first public match, however, was in 1829, in a match be tween Leicester and Nottingham, in which he scored 39 and 27, and bowled 7 wickets. In one of the matches wherein he was engaged he bowled 13 wickets, a feat which has rarely been equalled. In one of the Kent and England matches, which was played at Town Mailing, he bowled three of the best wickets in one ' over,' and got •20 runs in one innings. This last act is recorded, because Redgate strictly is not a batsman of high standing, al though we have seen him make lung hands occasionally. As a bowler, however, be has had pretensions of the first character. His pace was extremely rapid, his delivery beautiful and unexceptionable as to fair ness, while its length was excellent, and its rise quick and very effective. Indisposition during the last year or two has made come havoc in his physical 'powers; but in ail othsr respects, save that of the pace, he bowled in sumo of the matches last season as well as ever. It is feared that he has not at all times been the best Irieed to himself, and that the illness be has had was the result of various indiscretions. Sincerely is it hup,.d that be has entice ly regained his health; and it may be inferred that such a con vequence from carefulness has come to pass, seeing that he is at present at Cambridge as a practice bowler to the gentlemen of that Uuivenity. His average as a bowler in 1844 was as fulluvvs:—Het played ten matches, bowled 31 wickets, and made an average of three one tenth. In 1845 he played ten matches, had 14 innings, scored 8 in one inning:4 16 in non match, and 37 in all, giving an average (.f shout 2. Ic the saire number bawled 32 wickets, had 18 caught off hitn, and took iu all 50 wiekets, or an Avrrg,. of 5 per match. He also bawled 7 wides."— Nottingham Journal.

Benet, of the French msrine, whose volunteer of fervick s for any Arctic expedition wa3 announced in our journal a few days since, arrived from Paris on Saturday morning. He has hastened across to join the Plince Albert. at Aberdeen. Mllot, Knight of the Legion of Honour, is a dis tinguished offi.;er in the French service, and was wounded at Madagascar in 1845, iu the combined attack of the French and English at Tamatave. The generous„ offer of his services on an arduous voyage to the Arctic seas, in a cause so sacred, will be duly appreciated by all classes- ot her Majesty's subjects, and tend, we trust, to cement that union between the nations of the globe which is so ardently sought to be established by the " world's fair." M. Bellotis, as it were, the representative of the French navy in the search fur Franklin, fur we have reason to believe that deep sympathy is felt by all offi cers of the navy of France, and indeed of all navies in the civilised world, in the fate of that brave and good man and his gall►nt associates. SHIP NEWS. NOTICE. THE ESTATE STEALING MORTGAGE SYSTEM. Attention is directed to the estate stealing mortgage system, practised by persona of apparent respectabilil pre'ending to assist the owners of estates with advances. In building transactions the cases have been of common occurrence, ore account of the higkrate of interest, large margin of value, and opportunities for dispitting every advance required as the works proceed. In many other cases, examination of titles and sur veys of property, are charged for without the slightest intention of making advances, and abstracts or other im portant documents detained until extortionate charges are paid. The most effectual remedy against such frauds will be a register of cases, and the mamas of parties engaged in concocting them,and mortgagots should become members of protection societies to ascertain who may be sately trusted in such important negotiations. Respectable so 'Liters and honourable agents will also derive advantage by being distinguished from the disreputable. The w ant of public attention to this description of fraud has been the cause of depriving thousands of %it:tows and orphans 01 property ample for their support if it had been fairly prot,cted.

The following story appears in the Gazette des Tri bunaua: “Two well.dressed persons, having the uppear lance of Englishmen, went yesterday to the fair which is being held on the Route de Versailles. They placed before them a tray containing a great number of pieces like those .of 20f ; and with . a very strong English accent offered them for sale at one franc: each. The public suspecting that the pieces were only a composition gilded, made few pur chases. Presently a cab drove up, and two other Englishmen, also fashionably dressed, alighted. They went. to within a abort distance of the other two, and one,said in bad French, ' Why, I declare it is Lord Harrison trying to- win his wager with Sir Batburls.' ' What wager?' said the second English man,.

She attempted by caresses to put it aside, but the animal held firm, and o pp ose d her way. " I shall certainly be late!" cried she. "Do take away that horrible dog!" The waiter and the master cried out, " Vidocq, Vidocq! give way sir," but the dog never stirred. One of the waiters here whispered something to the master, who, coming up to the young woman, said, "If my dog prevents you leaving the premises, the reason must be that you have some of the property belonging to the house about yen. You had better give it up a , once, and go your way." The person thus addressed at first affected great indignation at being so addressed, but at last drew out a silver , pOO/1, which she handed to the o: ner of the restaurant The dog then allowed her to pass, and she was hurrying off when she was seized by her mantelet, and forced to stop. This time it was a police agent, who had been on the look-out for se , eral persons su petted of being concerned in a robbery, and who, it was thought, might attempt to get off by the railway. She was arrested, and on examination her mantelet was foundto be furni s hed with immense pocketslor receiving pil fered goods. It is said that this is not the first time that the dog, belonging to the restaurateur, has shown himself a faith ful guardian of his master's property. Galignani's Messenger.

EXCHEQUER-BILLS BILL. This Bill was read a third time, and passed. INDEMNITY BILL. This Bil 1 was read a third time and passed. PETITIONS. The Bisiliop of WINCHESTER presented several pe titions against Papal aggression. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented several petitions Request Papal aggression. Lord CAMPBELL presented a petition from a parish in Perthshire' to the same purport. The Earl of ENNISKILLEN presented several peti tions from places in Ireland to a similar purport. The Duke or ARGYLE presented several petitions from places in S,sotland to a similar purport. The Earl of 11ARROWBY presented several peti tions praying for a repeal of the Sale of Beer Act; also several petitions in favour of copybold enfranchisement. FOREIGN FLOUR. The Earl of GLENGALL presented a petition of which he had given notice from the grand jury of Tip perary in favour of protection to home-made flour. The Noble Earl said this was a most serious question. There was as largo an amount of capital invested in fleur•mills as there eras in cotton-mills, and in Ireland the flour establishments were as large as the cotton es tablishments in England, and now the French had erected mills and undersold them in the market in the finer specimens of fl our. The Irish millowners had pur chased up all the , corn in Ireland, and had driven a most profitable trade in it, and now their profits would be sensibly diminished by the importation of French flour, and the carriage of corn and flour would be di minished. He had frequently seen in the town with which he was connected 500 or 600 carts employed in carrying cure ro these mills, and bringing the flour away. The consequence of free trade had been that these mills had bean ruined, and that the people had been compelled to live upon that nasty filth called Indian meal, which was positively poisonous. The people could not work upon it. In ah the milling districts the workhouses were crowded, and they had been compelled to take auxiliary workhouses, and those auxiliary werkhouses had formerly been stores fur the millers for Irish corn. This was a positive fact- It reacted on this country, producing a deluge of Irish paupers, who were sent over by the Irish unions at half• a-crown a head; and if they continued the free. trade system they would have ell the Irise paupers sent over to England. Now for the facts. - In 1849 there had been imported into England of foreign flour 3,349.899 cwt.; in 1850, 3 890,440 cwt.; whereas in 1847 there had been imported only 1.339,000 cwt. of fl sus. He then proceeded to show that a large bonus was realized by importing foreign grain in the shape of flour, instead of in its raw material, owing to its being rendered capable of stowage in a smaller compass by that process. He con tended that there was as large an amount of capital ir.vested in flour mills as there was in cotton mills; that in Ireland the flour mills were as costly as the cotton mills of England; and that it was a lamentable circumstance that the French millers. who lived at no cost on board of Ills vessels with which they im.orted the finest flour into Ireland, should undersell the Irish and the British miller in their own mar kets. He concluded by expressing his conviction that free trade would be destructive of all the beat interests of the country, and that under its fatal dominion industry would never reap the advantages which were its due, and skill and energy would be of no use. Earl GRANVILLE observed that it was always a dis agreeable task to make a reply to a statement of distress, when, in admitting the existence of that distress to a certain extent you had to deprecate the remedy which was proposed for its relief. He did not feel himself bound on the present occasion either to reply to the objections which the Noble Earl had urged against the s3stem of free trade generally, or to enter into a discussion on the state of Ireland, into which the Noble Earl had entered so largely, especcially when the accounts which he had receised from various quarters dis proved, rather than proved, tie accuracy of the Noble Earl's information. He believed that the distress suffered by the millowners of Ireland, and ea elaborately detailed by the Noble Earl, existed to a considerable extent; but he could not agree with the Nolle Earl that it arose from increased competition with the French millowners, or with his sug gestion that protection to home-made flour would be the best remedy for it. He also believed that distress was sustained hy the millowners of Englant, Th ey were undergoing' at this momen m t the same fate Lich often befell the anufac turers of the country. Amid he improvements which bad recently been made in the conkruction of mills and machi nery, it was found that those nellowners who had a limited capital, and resided at a distance from the best markets, were gradually displaced by hose who had a larger amount of capital, and who had the hetefit of the best markets. It could not be disadvantageous ti the millowners to have the raw material of their trade cheep; for its cheapness led to greater consumption on the pee of the people; and, there fore, they must derive advantage, as well as the hulk of the community, from having a lar ger introduction of grain than formerly into the markets of tll5 country. With regard to the competition of the French millowners, he bad recently seen a French gentleman, well inown to many of their Lord ships, who had recently held Yea office in France, M. De lessert (we think his Lordshii said), and that gentlem an had informed him that there was no branch of industry in France in which so much progress had been made in the last 20 years as that with which the millowners were connected, and that, nevertheless, the milbwners were at that moment complaining loudly of the instfficient remuneration which they received in return for theirlabou r an d t h e i r capital. It was clear, from the statement trade to him by M. Delessert, that some of the minor millowners of France must have given way in th e com p e tition wli c h they bad rec en tly under gone with the larger capitalists and yet he did not expect that any of their Lordships would be prepared to say that it would have been a wise measure on the part of the French Government to have bolstered q the weaker portion of this trade by aid furnished from the resources of the state. An other observation which had fallen from the Noble Earl was that the French farmer was deriving great profit from im porting corn to England. No he (Earl Granville) bad every reason to believe that the tontrary was the fact. The same complaints which were nude in England of the diss tressed condition of the English farmer were made in France respecting the distressed condltios of the French farmer. He likewise believed that the great distress alleged to be suf tered by the British millowners was disproved by the success of the mill recently erected at Betersea, and by the nume rous new mills now in course of construction in different parts of the country. The Noble'Earl had suggested that flour should be immediately proileted by a duly, which would enable the miller to contnue his operations. He (Lott' Granville) was not disposal to underrate the very dangerous commercial, political, antisocial consequences which he believed would result if the Legslature determined to re vert to the system of protective impart duties upon grain ; but he must say he thought such a meauee would be intiuitely more defensible than to afford prohction to the millers be cause a portion of that body were , evolved in some distress in consequence of the altered circumstances of their re spective localities. The Noble Earl had ssid that this ques tion would be brought forward again, and he could only say that, if a definite proposition were eibmitted to the House, his Noble Friends behind him would be quite ready to dis cuss it. The Earl of MAL MESBURY said hs had taken some pains about a fortnight ago to ascertain the real state of the agri cultural body in France, reed he had been informed that during the year 1850 the amount of agricultural produce— weest, wheaten flour, and barley—exported from France to this country was equal in value (as we understood) to some 2,00 1 ,0001• beyond the ordinary exports. It was clear, then, that France could not only teed her own people, but had a surplus of food to spare; and it coulr not, therefore, be maintained that the agricultural body ir. France were in a similar condition to the agriculturists of tais country. If the French exported at a loss, was it conceivablealsat their ex• ports would have increased in three years from 2'6,000 quarters to 595 ,000 quarters? Noble Lords opposite had publicly lamented the distress of the aeeieultu al interest; the Noble Earl (Granville) had acknowledged tha , distress existed among the millers; but yet these Noble Lords had not made the slightest attempt to relieve that distress. The Earl of HARDWICK E considered it a striking fact that there was not one interest which came before either House of Parliament that was not in a depressed condition. The distress of the agricultural interest had been acknow ledged in the Speech from the Throne; and now the millers, freetraders themselves, had turned round and were calling upon Parliament for protection. It was .said that these petitioners were milers who were in a small way of business, but very recently a miller of Wakefield, who fed 200,000 people from his mill, had written to Mr. Cobden; as his re presentative, begging him to change his views on the sub ject of free trade. What, too, was the condition of the ship ping interest, and what was the character of the dail a and weekly rep ,rte of trade from Manchester ? He might remind their Lordships that Ireland was no longer a flourishing ex porting country, as it was previously to 1845, but that it was now a large importing country. The Marquis of CLAN RICARDE observed, that if _Noble Lords opposite thought proper to bring the state of Ireland under discussion, be th ou ght his Noble Friends would beagle to show that the various interests of that country were not in the distressed con di t i on t h at h a d b een represented._ The . e whole question o f p rotect i on an d f ree t ra d e was raised by be the suggestion of the Nobl e Earl, that an import dutyshould imposed upon fl our , an d i nto th a t su bject he would not enter. He might say, h owever , as th e Noble Earl had ref erred to the number of paupers in Ireland, that although it was ure fortunately too true that the workhouses in the west of Irel nd were extremely MI, he would ask the. well a Noble Earl what would b e t h e con di t i on o f the ratepayers, as o f the paupers in th o s e unions, if, instead of having food at the reasonable price at which it was now obtained, foodprotec tive high ?—(Hear, hear.) He could speak confidently as to the opinion or the Poor-law guardians, and he had not met with a single guardian in Ireland who was not so far an ad vocate of free trade as to say, " If we had not at this time cheap food, it would be utterly impossible for us to support our paupers." He believed that no persons had suffered so much from the r e mov a l of protective duties as the millers in the south and west of Ireland, but the question raised by the Noble Earl (Glengall) was one of great importence; and unfortunately the case of the Irish millers could not 'be con sidered in an isolated point of view, and without reference to other interests et the country. After stew words in reply from the Earl of GLENGALL, The Duke of ARGYLL observed, that there was an im mense pressure upon Glasgow, and other large towns i n Scotland, in consequence o the influx of Irish paupers. The parochial offi cers were freque n tly obligeeto give them half-a-crown a-piece to seno them heck to Ireland —(A laugh) —and he hoped that no more half-crown paupers Would be sent over from Ireland. The E ,r 1 of LUCAN was sure his Noble Friend (the Earl of Glengall) bad never intended to say that it was the 'prac tice to send over paupers from Ireland.—(Laughter.)• He had, during the last ten years, resided in that country for a eonsiderable part of every year, and at no former period was there anything at all equal to the amount of distress at pre sent existing there. At no period was the cultivation of land in Ireland so totally neglected as at this moment, es pecially in Mayo and Galway, and he therefore thought it was , if lie might 11,44) the expression without offence, tolerably The Earl of CARLISLE said, the Bill was founded upon a report which had been made by a Commission a tew years ago. The Commission, composed of gentlemen of different views, were unanimous in recommending it. It had been circulated largely among the clergy, who were generally in favour of it, and the Government also approved of the Bill as a well-conceived measure for promoting church ex tention within the pale of the Church itself. He believed that very good and cogent reasons could be shown for the provkion for raising pew-rents but it might be a question whether some means for obtaining the consent of the parish beforehand would not be a useful addition to the Bill. That was a matter, however, which would, no doubt, engage the utter tion of the Select Committee. The Bill was ordered to be referred to a Select Com mittee, and the House adjourned.

Sir B.

Baronet, and strongly deprecated the inconvenience which would arise from asking such questions in the House. NEW RIDE IN KENSINGTON -GARDENS.

DITNCO 3 tIBE gave notice of a motion for next session with respect to the extension of the franchise. ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES BILL. On the motion tor going into Committee. on this Bill, Mr. MOORE rose to move that the standing order, which r+ quires that Bills concerning religion should be first considered in a Committee of the whole House, be read, and that the order far the Committee on Beck siastical Titles Assumption Bill be discharged. The reason of this motion was, he said, drawn from the standing order of the House, which declared that all Bills relating to religion or any alteration proposed in the laws on this point should originate in a Committee of the whole House. Mr. May, is high authority in these matters, heel said that this order had always been construed as applying to religion, and not to the temporalities of religious bodies, and it pus en this ground that the Roman Catholic Relief Bill bad been considered first in a Committee of the whole House end afterwards the Church Temporalities Ireland Bil: had been brought in without that preliminary step. He was quite willing to admit, if the Bill were to be regarded only with refereece to its first motive, or if the amend ments of the Government were to restore it to a mere temporal measure, that his objection would at once fat! to the ground, but his objection was against the Bill a first introduced, and he thought it was not necessar3 for him to argue before any lawyer or educated gentleman of that House that ordination and the administration of sacraments were not mere temporal incidents, but essentially spiritual. He quoted a letter from Archbishop Murray, in which that Rev. Prelate stated that he could not perform his ecclesiastical functions except in his character of arch bishop, and then the Hon. Gentleman proceeded to ob serve that the letter containing that opinion produced such an effect upon the Noble Lord at the head of the Government, that, with a spirit of liberality which rw called the incidents of the No'cile Lord's early career, he consented to make a material alteration in the Bill. Now, assuming the opinion of Dr. Murray, and the admission of the Government that followed, to be correct, how couli• any one pretend to say that the Bill related only to tem , noralities, and would in no way interfere with relit. gion ? But it might be said that Dr. Murray was no lawyer, and therefore his opinion could not he held to be conclusive. Well, in order to meet that %bjection, a case had b en submitted to Mr. Willes, the Inner Temple, one o f t h e C ommissioners appointer! toinquire into th e b est means of amending the law on this very subject, an d he had given 113 his opinion, which h a d s i nce been confirmed by Si) Fitzroy Kelly arid Mr. Btddeley, that this Bill, if it passed into a law, would place the duty of Dr. Murra), as an archbishop of his Church, in direei eoriThet with his duty as a subject of the Queen. It might, however also be objeeteo thSt the effect of the Bill was only constructiv , and not direct; but though he was not lawyer enough to decide between the two he was sufficiently learner' to perceive that the effect of the Bill upon the Catholic Church would be to prevent the exercise of religious functions, and hence the effect nare, not be constructive, but direct.—(Hear, hear.) . T . ht! standing ord er to w hi c h be referred was made in 1 1 1 3 on the occa s i on o f a Bi l ! b e i ng introduced into the House of Commons for the relief of Protestant Dissenters, When that Bill went up to the House of Lords, several of the bishops objected to it on the ground that it was improperly entitled, and it was consequently negatived. After the rejection of th e: Bill, thi s s ta n di ng order i was passed, in order in r:: tuto to guard against Bills being etroduee:i into Parliamentclandestinely, with a title altogether different f rom t h , real nature a dui provisions they contained. And it ever there was a Bill which Showed the wisdom of this enactment, or to what it eras int e nd e d to apply, it was the present one. He considered if th e Bill had been brought forward in Commi ttee its whole provisions would have been well eifeid, and Members been enabled to make those inquiries and obtain that information which they eeezned nece=ssary. The Bill not only affected the temporalities of religion, but the most vital and es sential parts of religion it,eif . arid if it passed, it would be impossible for a Raman Catholic bishop to be or dained consistently with the law of the land, and unless that ceremony took place, ho could not be considered as one of the spiritual heads of the Church. Her therefore, celled on the Speaker and the House, in com pliance with the standing order, to discharge the Bill. Sir G. GREY said he would not enter into the ex pelienoy of introducing the Bill in Committee, because that was not the real question before the House, but he might observe that the advantages mentioned by the Hon. Gentleman were perfectly imaginary. His Right Hon. Friend (Lord J. Russell) would not have been compelled to detail more minutely the provisions of the Bill in Committee than when he first introduced the Bill to the House.—(Hear, hear.) The Honour able Gentleman had stated that the standing order was made in 1773 in consequence of a Bill intro duced into the House, and ultimately objected to by the bishops. Now it so happened that the standing order was made in April, 1772, some months previous to that Bill being brought forward. There was also a similar standing order at the same time relative to Bills affecting trade, and these two were not new orders, but merely the separation of one order which was made in 1703, into two. The standing order, there• fore, had certainly existed long before the Bill mentioned by the Hon. Gentleman was introduced. Thereat question was, whether the present Bill fell within the meaning ofthe standing order. If the Hon. Gentleman had succeeded in showing that it did, he was willing to admit that no objection could be taken to the course which the lien. Gentleman had pursued. But how did he purpose to show this? First, by quoting a letter written to the Rieht Honourable Baronet the Member for Ripon before the Bill was introduced, which relied mainly for its line of argument upon the word " acts" to be done by any bishop, which word, in fact, was not to be found in the Bill as it stood at present. 'I ho same was the case with the Hon. Gentleman's own argu ment, which rested mainly on the u e of the word "acts," which was omitted from the Bill. The Hon. Gentlemen said, moreover, that if this Bill passed the Archbishop of Dublin would be unable to exercise the spiritual duties which he now exercised. If such were the case he would remind the Hon. Gentleman and the House than such had been the case ever since 1829, be cause that title had been prohibited by law ever since that time. Again, he would remind the Hon. Gentle man that in 1831 a Bill was passed to legalise marriages among Roman Catholics. Now marriage was a solemn sacrament of religion among Roman Catholics, and the Bill was introduced into the House without the prelimi nary form. Mr. ROEBUCK was of opinion that this was -a question affecting religion, and as such came under the meaning of the standing ender. At the present moment Roman Catholic priests were not prohibited from taking titles of sees which were not already appropriated by bishops of the Eetabliebed Church, and a person bear ing the title of Bishop of Westminster could receive be quests to be applied to the benefit of his own religi ,n. It; however, it passed be would not be' able to do so, and for that reason he con sidered this was a Bill which interfered with religion, and the Noble Lord himself had acknowledk-d that by proposing to extract cert,in clauses from the Bill, and had thus put himself out of court. The SPEA.KEit said,' having been appealed to by two Honourable Members to state what his opinion upon this matter was, perhaps the House would allow him to do so as shortly as he could. There was no authority founded upon any decision of the Howe for determining what was meant by the phrase " Bills relating to religion," but having looked closely into the reports of Bills which had passed the House which bore upon miattera of religion he thought it was not necessary to pass a Bill through a Committee of the whole House, unless the Bill related to the spiritualities of religion. True, the Church Temporalities Act went through Com mittee, as had been stated by an Hon. Member, but to show that it was not because it related to religion that it was carried into Committee, he might mention that there wits no allusion made to the standing order now under discussion, arid the Bill passed through just as though it had been a money Bill. Then came the Bill for carrying into effect the report of the Eccleshastical Commissioners. That was not introduced in a Commit tee of the whole House, because it was supposed to re late to temporal and not spiritual matters, and for pre cisely the same reason the Irish Marriage Act did not go through a preliminary Committee. Under all those circumAances he was of opinion that the Bill now before the House was not one which it was neces sary to introduce into Committee of the whole House. —(Hear, hear.) He was consulted upon this sub ject in the first instance without, of course, being made acquainted with the whole of its provisions, and he gave the same opinion then; and having since carefully considered the Bill, he saw no reason whatever to change that opinion. Mr. MILNER GIBSON said it appeared to him that the opinion of the Speaker went upon the assumption that this Bill interfered with religion no further than did those Bills which the Right Hon. Gentleman had re ferred to; but that assumption was decidedly erroneous. He had considerable doubts whether, looking at the pro visions of the Bill, it was not a measure alteriei the laws concerning religion, and imposing pains and penalties on a portion of the people. Though he bowed with deference to the opinion of the Speaker, yet until they had submitted to him a proper case for his consideration, he thought they ought not to abide by the opinion which he had ,just given to the House.—(Hear.) He would suggest that they should take the same course which was adopted with the Irish Temporalitii s Bill, and appoint a Select Committee to examine into precedents, and re port whether, according to the orders and rules of the House, the Bill should have been introduced in a Com mi, tee of the whole House.—(Hear.) Mr. GRATTAN said it was absurd to suppose that this was a measure which did not affect the religion of his fellow-countrymen. It was a mockery, an insult, and an attempt to play upon words for the Noble Lord at the head of the Government to make such ar assertion. Had they not fur the last few moi.the been almost entirely occupied in discussing reli gious subjects ? The ferment which the Bill had already given rise to, end was likely to increase, would make the Ministers regret to the lest day of their lives that they had passed such a ineesure. They had neither the ceuraee, determination, or mind to get Ireland vat of the difficulties-in which their nisei ! 'lice and overbearing Iseguage had placed her. If the Bill were passed, the House woule not only be made the laughing-st ck of the three kingdoms, but of the world her. REYNOLDS moved that the debate be now ad. knirued, in uruer to afford time to inquire into piece deuce. audacious on the part of any Noble Lord on the Ministerial bmich to seek a sort of triumph in the present state of Ire law:. Ihe Soble Marquis (Clanricarde) had slid he never heard any guardians in that country speak in favour of pro t. ction. He (the Earl of Lucan) was a member of four boards of guardians in Ireland, and three-fourths of the guardians, if not the whole of them, were Protectionists. He never heard the guardians congratulate themselves upon cheap food, but he had often heard them lament that wretch e d paupers were driven to the workhouse in conse quence of agricultural labourers deserting their wives and children. After a few words in explanation from the Mat qnis of CLANRICARDE, the subject dropped. CHURCH BLTILDINGS ACTS AMENDMENT BILL. On the order of the day being read for going into Com mittee on this Bill, Lord FOR /MAN said he considered some of the provisions of the measure very objectionable. It would affect the rights of some 30.1,000 persons who now had free seats in churches, which heti been erected by private subscriptions or by Church Building Societies, by giving power to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners to let one , half of those sittings, in order to es tablish a fund for the payment of the ministers. He believed that some of the clauses would contravene the teatutes of mortmain. The Bill provided that the right of patronage should be vested in those parties who subscribed not less than 501. to the building of a church ; but why were persons who could not contribute such large sums to be deprived of a voice in the appointment of the ministers? He also objected to the clause which gave the right of nomination to any new church built in a t extra-parochial place to the bishop, in stead of leaving it with the subscribers. He suggested, as the Bill was nut a common-place one, but of high importance, well deserving the attention of the House, that it should be referred to a Select Committee. The Bishop of LONDON said, the Bill had been prepared with the view of providing additional church accommoda tion. The popular cry now was that the Church should find the means within herself of extending her borders, a one of the most legitimate modes of doing so appeared to be from pew -rents. The Church Building Commissioners had found that in many cases where they had set apart a larger number of free seats for the poor.than they had thought fit to avail themselves of it would be desirable, and it had been so represented to them, to let those seats at reduced rents. He had no objection to the Bill's going before a Select Committee. Lord STANLEY did not doubt the goodness of the object for which the Bill had been proposed, nor was he disposed to say that in some cases the number of tree seats might not be curtailed ; but, in cases where persons had given large sums of money towards the building of a church, with the view of affording gratuitous accommodation to the poor, he thought it would be not only inexpedient in point of policy, but a breach of faith also, by ex post facto legislation to im pose a charge upon those seats, at the discretion of the Com missioners. He objected, therefore, to that ex post facto legislation. There was another point, also, which he thought deserving attention. It might be, under the Bill, in places where the parochial accommodation was amply sufficient, if sectarian feeling ran high, that the building of a church in the same neighbourhood might be authorised with the view of serving sectarian purposes alone. This was by no means an imaginary case, and he feared that it might not be a peculiar one. The Bishop of OXFORD observed, that it would not be the Ecclesiastical Commissi , ners, but the Church Building Commissioners, who would have the power of charging pew , rer ts. Mr. HUME was quite ready to consent to the ad iournmou t of the debate. Mr. KEOGH contended that the Bill effected the spi titualities of the Roman Catholic Church, and read the written opinion of Sir F. Kelly, air. Brodie, convey ancer, and Mr. Baddele,y, stating that the Bill would ren der it illegal fur any archbishop or bishop of the Roman Catholic Church to exercise their official functions in this country, thouo they might be merely of a spiriiutt; nature. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL apprehended, that the first thing that would strike any individual when considering the history of the standing orders in question, was that the sense in which the word "religion" was used in that ord-r was one concerning matters of faith and doctrine, and Lot mere matters of ecclesiastical management, superintendence, or jurisdiction. The question then was, whether this Bill did in any way affect faith or doctrine, or in any manner concern spiritualities of any description. The Roman Catho lic Archbishop of Dublin, indeed said, that if the Bill passed he should not be able to ordain a priest or admini ter the sacrament of confirmation. Was it intended, then, to be said that from the year 18,9 to the present moment there had been no ordination and no sacrament of confirmation performed by any Roman Catholic archbishop or bishop in Ireland, except by the Bishop of Galway, whose see had been created since 1829, or by the Archbishop of Tuam, there being no Pro'estant archbishop of that title? If the argument of the Hon. and Learned Member for Mayo were right, such must have been the case, because the provisions of the present Bill litre precisely similar to those contained in the Bili of 1829. He apprehended there was not a Member in the House who would tell him that a Roman Catholic bishop could not ordain a priest unless he were a bishop of some particular diocese—or that Dr. Wiseman could not have exercised his spiritual functions as well when he ryas Bishop of Melipotamus as he could when Archbishop of Westminster. The real meaning of Dr. Murray's statement was this:—" There are certain temporal advantages to the person ordained by me as Archbishop of Dublin which he would not po.,,,ess if he were ordained by me under any other title." But that was clearly out of the precincts of religion. It dealt with temporalities merely. Reference had been made to an opinion of Mr. Willes. but how did that opinion commence? the Learned Counsel said, "I urn instructed that the Archbishop cannot ordain or do so and so unless it ba under the title of Archbishop of Dublin; and, if I am co rectly instructe then the Bill will have such and such an effect." Now, in the first place, if the Learned Counsel were truly instructed, then the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin and all the Catholic bishops of Ireland must have been under an interdict for the last 22 years. Was such a statement made to the Lea ned Counsel? He (the Solicitor- General) would venture to say that nothingoe of verythe kind Was. seriouslytssau'caa.ls: ever hiuted at; nor would any n contend that a Roman Catholic bishop's 'unctions depended upon the title whi. h sumed. But it was dangerous to act upon the opinion if counsel without knowing the stalernent I id before rim. He would rataner ie trust to aithe Opinion given by the Right Hon. Gentlthe chr, who formed Iris jn dg inent not only from the standing orders of the liouse,bui from the clauses of the Bill which formed the subject mater to which ;hose orders applied. Heft ad no doubt Mr. Speaker had arrived at a right conclusi on this question. Te Right Hon. Member for Manchester (speaking ad invid lam) said that when they were removing isilalnt whenliri estthhe3 wereeH ouse went into a preliminary Committee, but that imposing disabilities they did not think i' necessary to go into Committee. But the Right lion. Gentleman perfectly aware of the reuses why Committee on the Catholic must be .the House wen'. into lc Relief Bill. That was a measure t'or altering an oath. There was a point remaining which time when the order was n of the was used, he having et,heauHd twaihsee.o the word "reli gion" atthe by the word "religionwas imneatnet fijfsatiptulaucuedcc.tednuctrirdiende,lhhaut would now ask—but what faith and docbine? Was it not Perfectly clear that it meant the faith and doctrine of the Es tablished Church? The order meant that the House should not tamper with the established religion, nor alter its doc trines, per first having the sanction of a Committee of the whole House. No law ••er on reading this Bill, would say that it meant to effect a 3chring the doctrine or internal economy of the Roman Catholicerngion ; and to say that the Bill would alter or affect the established religion would be absurd. The whole question was whether the touched spiritualities. Locking at the Bill in every point f nor view, he was of opinion that it did not affectutureollit, touch any spiritual function of the Roman If he depended on precedents he might refer to many; for instance, the Church Temporalities Act, the Tithes Commu tation Act, the Vestries Bill, the Curates Bill ; these and other Dille had been pima Oritll9ll4 411 Y P 41141114417 ref"- ence to a Committee of the whole lime; he, therefore, thought that if the Home were to yield to the argunieut which had been urg e d on thi s eccas i on, i t wou l d comp l e te!,c stultify itself, and at the s true vine be acting in direct epee' sition to the whole current of precedents. Mr. GLADSTONE thoneht the present discussion would have one useful result, in showing that. the precedents cn this important question were in a state that was most unl! tisfactory. Therefore, alth oug h t h at m i g h t not b e a sti . cient reason for interferring with the progress of the Bill, yet he thought it was most desirable that some rule should e: laid down for their future guidance, in order that an unt . formity of practice might prevail in a matter of no incon:i derable importance. The Solicitor-General had argued , 1,43 _ . question with great fairness. The two main questionn r 7 the Hon. and Learned Gentleman ha 't stated. were-4 whe her the word " religion" in the standing order inelude e, d any religion except the es t a bli s h e d re li g i on ? an d, if tt a. T .s n . then, secondly, whether, th ere b e i ng the Roman lie religion in this country, it could be said that _ , p ‘: spiritualities were touched by this Bill or not? It a rs , peered to him ( Mr. Glads'one) that the Solicitor-Ge.ne _; was perfectly right in saying that the proper ineattia n gT the standing order was, that it regarded not religio tf that in general, but the established religion of the country. - 0 for were so, what was the course which precedent poi"tedet. tent the House to follow? There was, he feared, no cen-" or uniform precedent. The precedent of 1772 would. the lead to the inference that Baps which tended to affeat ab s entities of the established"- religion ought to pass thaen,n .) , preliminary Committees. It was true the Act of 17" the relief of the Roman Catholics was passed with" . g through any such Committee, but then there were ''you„4, for preceuents the other way. There was the Act of lge e t o f the repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts, the M od 1829, for the Emancipation of the Roman Catholics , oo e several other Bills, all of which were introl, through the medium of a Committee. The,, Se n frs tor-General had said that the reason those - 13, " 5 'b e y submit ed to an intermediate Committee was, that t altered an enth.

Looking, h e e b e ever, at the preambl e o f t h e present Bill, he confessed thought that rule ought to be applied both ways.-( 0P a ' hear.) This Bill w as not lik e one for repealing a Utz; b it was a measure which, while giving to one party+ t o taking away fro m anot h er; while it tended to strengtn. the Church of E ng l an d . i t took from the Roman Cathel io that which they wou ld ot h erw i se enjoy. The question wi n t one involved in considerable difficulties; and he thought i would be wise, wheth er w i t h reference to the present ltiht to the future c ourse o f l eg i slatien, to appoint a Commit inquiry in ord er t o fi x upon some clear and authoritstl; construction of this imp or t ant stand i ng order, so that '4 practice of the Hou se , w hi c h h ad been hitherto confuse d unintelligible, might be meth. clear, practical, and intellinw; Mr. SADLEIR, thought the very s h ow i ng o f Governm en t e , in their speech es proved the Bill had reference to the tenetbo blished Chur c h. I n d ee d , he believed the Bill went .fign: than was eve r con t emp l ated b y the restrictive clauses'Of " Act of 1829. r The gallery wa s th en c l eared for a division. but after short interval the door was re-opened, and we found Lord J. RUSSELI4 addressine the House. H e was be serving there was no ground for further delay t on the subie,bse The instances o f t h e Corporation and Test Acts and of o relief of R oman Catholic disabilities, quoted by the Rig n Hon. Member (Mr. Gladstone), referred to supposed seeetn d ties for the religion of the country, and those in ecedents i u , i t not apply to the present case. • He did not believe a Se'r ee Committee could do anything more than leave the queen" - to the discretion of the House. Mr. BRIGIIr recollected that the Noble Lord had wiP n i drawn clauses from th e Bill, on the ground that they afreen" fe the spiritualities of the Roman Catholic faith, and therele tee bill came within the undoubted practice of the Hou se :„ The Noble Lord invited the House to inflict an injury n °- 8,000,000 or 10,000,000 inhabitants of the United Kingcli; and to pass over certain rules which the Established Cnut c ao had insisted on for its own security. The Roman Cahn" population stood before the House in precisely the same reit; tion as the m em b ers of the Established Church and taln Noble Lord ou g ht to h ave been more careful, when take n!; away their right s , to proceed with the utmost caution than if he were e ngage d on a matter which would affect the power of the dominant church. It would be only fair, in order to satisfy the Roman Catholics to refer the quest on to a select Committee, when they would see the House proceed with as much care and delicacy in their case as in that of the Ea' tablisheil Church. The House then divided, when there appeared- For the motion of adjournment .. 5 3 Against it ... 179 Majority for going on wills the debate-126 On returning to the gallery, Mr. LAWLESS was speaking. He did not believe the majority represented the sense of the House, but that they represented the influence of the Government. He would move that the House be adjourned.-(0h! oh!) Mr. GRATTAN, as a Protestant Member, wished to se cond the motion, and appealed to the Noble Lord not to preen the question as a m Ater ot good feeling. Lord J. RUSSELL said , hat he had seen in the majoritt many Hun. Members who had in general been oPpoied to his Government, and that he had never seen a more attentive House than had been present during this debate. That the House should now be celled on to adjourn made him suspect Hen. Gentlemen had faltered in the resolution which it was said they had come to-not to make any factious opposition to the Bill-a resolution which he had very much admired. (Hear, and laughter.) They had heard the opinion of the Speaker and or several Hon. Members well acquainted with the forms of the House, and it there were any Irish Members who thought they had a better opinion on points of order than the Speaker and these Hon. Members, perhaps it would be as well for the House to hear it. Mr. REYNOLDS disclaimed any intention of offering a factious opposition, but was not aware that any such resoe lutiou as the Noble Lord mentioned had been agreed upon- He was afraid the Irish Members would disappoint the Noble Lora in his anticipations of their political politeness. WI the Noble Lord consent to nominate a Select Committee, an he (Mr. Reynolds) would not object to the debate going en 'part passu ? Mr. KEOGH thought the Noble Lord had admitted it might be desirable to examine into precedents, which was in effect allowing the propriety of a Committee. If be granmed the Committee, they would not ppose his proceed ing with the Bill. 'I he Speaker said the reason why th e order of the House did not apply was, that the Bill did not , Iffect the spiritualities of the Reman Catholic Church. Th e Solicitor-General argued that the order did not apple,becans e it was intended to refer to the Protestant religion exclusively Surely such a difFeie nce o f opinion was good ground fur a Committee. Sir G. GREY denied that his Noble Friend had expressed any opinion in favour of a Committee. He had argued that d the questi o n w as o f a different nature from th ose which ba been referred to. Mr. ANSTEY was of opinion that the course the Roman sere Catholic Memb ers were pursuing was not calculated to I`, the minority opposed to the Bill. He desired to separat e himself from them, b ecause their object was evidently to th.ow obstructions i n t h e way of the House, and prevent it from proc e e.li ne w i t h the Bill. Mr. MOORE expressed his surprise that the Hon. Mein' ber, who had hi t h erto b een the very personification of obstrun' tion-who had spent one whole session in obstructing every' thing-his own B i ll among the rest-(A laugh)-should now lecture other s f or f o ll owing his example. Every Member unconnected with the Government who bad spoken in the course of the debate admitted tee desirableness of appointing a Committee. If the Noble Lord would consent to the ar pointment of a Cemmi tee, the motion for adjournment wou'd be at once withdrawn. The House divided, when there appeared - For the adjournment ... „. 3 6 Against it ... ... 145 Majority - •- 109 The motion was then renewed for the Speaker leaving the chair f r going into Coluniittee on the Bill, upon which • Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL rose to explain to the House his reasons for opposing it, as he had not an opportunity of doing so on the second reading. He considered that the act of the Pope was not such as to have callel for legislation on the part of either House of Parliament. ,Up to last autumn the Roman Catholics of England were governed by a body of vicars apostolic, and those vicars apostolic wire the nominees of the Pope. The Bill before the House had been met by a great display of opinion in the country. That f ee li ng slnead through the len g th and breadth of the la n d, and the present attempt at legislation was the result of a certain undefined wish on the part of the people, that Parliament should do something. ag e could not, as some Hon. Gentlemen contended, look at that movement as one emanating from the Church of England' The excitement out of doors was merely proof of an anxiety of feeling in th e country that this House should interfere . on t subj , ct was ahog-ethe in religious matters. He thought,however, that legisla tionlf the Courch Phisngland If were attacked, let it defend itself. . e , s . the p nominees presumed to claim temporal or civil r uneceseary. authority over the Sovereign of these realine, then would be the time to i nterfere, and no loyal Roman Catholic would refuse to ase i st. oppose end lie would j •be He should the progress of the Bill, um in every legitimate division that could taken on its merits at future stages. Mr. URQUHART said, that when he last addressed the House he was virtually precluded from entering nine any question but that of the conduct of time Government. Since t hat period th e N o bl e L ord at the head o f t h e Government had open e d up a b ranch of the question which he appeared to to_ ord de him of great importance, and upon whichwished Papal Government L a dress a few considerations to the Hous e.

St at Member for Bath, tor the University of Ox versify made by Lord Clarend, n, by the Hon. Member Or ford, by the Noble Lord the and others. The Noble Lord at the head of the Foreign Department had said that it was impossible for us to meet the aggression by diplomatic arrangement, because after the Pope had taken so decided a course we should only expose ourselves by an doing to huiniliatio . 4 and defeat. The Master of the Rolls, however, had used a very different argument. He said, o How could we go to R, me after the introduction of the clause into the Diplomatic Relations Bill which had offended the Pope and vitiated the action of that measure?"-(Hear.) The whole question had been placed in a faulty position by the introduction of the topic of the law of nations; for there were no treaty rights with r espect to the Pope, and unless the Pops had injured one of our citizens, infringed our territory, or done some such act, that question could not arise. In Armenia the same conduct had been pursued as in England by the Pope, but there, as the matter was treated N 1 LI contempt, the Roman Catholics protested against it. If, however, the same course had been pursued in Armenia as hail been followed in England, and if the people had been toll that by the act of the Pope the undivided sway of the Su tan was in danger, probably the whole body of the Armenians would have exhibited the same fervility as the Roman Catholics here had shown to that potentate, the Pope. The Hon. Member having referred to the occupation of Rome by the F. ench, and to the offer, as he observed, of the Czar of Russia's treasury and arms for the Pope's aid, expressed his conviction that some cause other theta religious was the ~' ="may---=_-; •' ItElt;P;MMillo z .._ ft_ H sum LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 13, 1851. _ ii DM . et.e the
