The Noble Marquee bad only to conform to the decision of the Curt, and the clause, as he had before stated to the Noble Marques, woul not affect him. 'He did not bring in the Bill against the Noble Marquess, but against a variety of cases, of which the Noble Marquess's case was one. He would say, too, that the defect of the law was made first appa rent by the case of the Noble Marquess, and that led to making known the necessity for the Bill. He had, how ever, stated, immediately the defect in the law was disco vered, it was his intention to bring in the Bill. It was not directed against the Noble Marquess, but against other persons. The Noble and Learned Lord then censured the language applied by the Noble Marquess to a Learned Judge and a most estimable man. He showed, that no Act had, ever been passed, taking away privileges, which did not give effect to all judgments existing at the time. In con clusion, the Noble and Learned Lord condemned,:in strong terms, the threatened outrage, which, he said, the Noble Marquess implied to himself—which he characterised as an outrage against the House, and which, he was sure, the Noble Marquess would regret in his cooler moments. He de clared, however, that if the Noble Marquess expected to turn him from what he considered his duty, that he had formed an erroneous estimate, and the Noble and Learned Lord showed that he had no other motives whatever but those of public duty for introducing this measure ; for with the other party he had not even the most common acquaintance. The Bill was only intended to place every body oa an equal footing before the On Monday last an immense anti-tithe meeting was held on the top of Rithcoole-hill, within eight miles of this city (on the confines of the counties o!

ADVICE. --When Men of Education an d professional skill use persevering endeavours to discover the most safe and certain method of treating a few prevailing diseases, the successful result of their expe rience is the best proof of superiority. Messrs. GOSS and Co., Surgeons, have been induced to make the cure of the following the object of their par ticular study, viz., a certain disorder, frequently contracted in a moment of intoxication, and its concomitants, Stric tures and Gleets, which, by an improved plan, are speedily and effectually cured ; as also debility, whether arising fr om Bacchanalian indulgences, long residence in warm climates, or a secret solitary vice, too often unhappily pur sued by the youth of both sexes, in the one causing steri lity or barrenness, and in the other a numerous train of nervous diseases, which, if not timely remedied, termi nate* in impotence and consumption. In that distressing State of debility or deficiency, whether the consequence of s uch baneful habits, or arising from any other course, by which the powers of the constitution become enfeebled, as regularly educated Surgeons of London, they offer a firm, 'Wes and speedy restoration to sound and vigorous health. Messrs. Goss and Co., exclusively profing the of these particular compl a i n t s , in order that ess they may cure not be, by a mist 'ken few, marked with the obloquy so justly attached to the ignorant - -cmpiric, think it but justice to themselv e s to state, that they have been properly educated and initiated into every branch of the profession (certifi cates of which, from different HOSPITALS, and testi monials from the most eminent Professors, they have to convince any inquirer) that the success resulting from their endeavours first induced them to quit the practice of the general practitioner ; and they presume that their preten . aions constitute a fair ground for the unprecedented confi dence with which they have, by the Public, been so libe rally honoured. The result of a long and extensive practice his enabled them, by a superior method, to remove Venereal Com plaints however inveterate or complicated, without sub jecting the Patient to the least restraint in diet or exer cise ; and in recent cases, where an early application is reads on discovery of the infection, they frequently perform a cure in the short space of a few days. The unprece dented success of their mode of treatment, which has never been known to fail in one single instance in a practice of twenty years, during which period many thousand persons of both sexes have been cured, even after severe and inju rious methods had been pursued by other practitioners Without effect, induces them to thus publicly offer their advice.

TH E ALHANIBRA, BYGEOFFREY CRAYON. "--These volumes, from the lively and fascinating pen of WASHINGTON IRVING, will be read b y a ll who have a taste for th e wild and pathetic with the greatest interest. Wild legend s and fairy tales gathered among the ruins of the Alhambra, and having that humour, simplicity, and extravagance, Which constitute the greatest charm of the Arabian Nights, are here interwoven so as to form, with the rest, a sweet and varied garland culled fresh from the romantic hills of Spain.

Trades' Union of this city), and strong resolutions were entered into against any of the surrounding farmers and gentry who should continue to pay tithes against the common voice of the people. Next day a horn was sounded through the adjoining parishes of Rathcoole, Siggard, Tdllaght, Newcas tle, Kill, and Celbridge, and at the signal, every labourer on the grounds of obnoxious individuals shouldered their spades, sithes, &c., and returned home. Amongst the number thus treated are Lord Cloncurry, at Lyons; Matthew Read, Esq., of Farm-hill ; and Graydon, Esq ,of Newcastle, adjoining; Colonel Conolly, at Castletown; and Frederick Bourne, Esq., of 'Ferenure, all of whom have lately paid tithes to their respective rectors. The latter gentleman is the mail-coach proprietor between Dublin and Limerick, bears an excellent character for liberality, and through all the relations of public life has hitherto been a deserved favourite with the people. When he is included by them in their measures of retaliation, no other upholder of the tithe system may expect to escape. No labourer can be prevailed on to work for him until he shall join in the opposition to tithes, and subscribe to the fund for remunerating the sufferers. This he has promised to do, but the people still hold out, and declare, that he must first come into an assem bly of the peasantry, and there avow his altered opinions and intentions. Meantime his horses are almost starving, his hay uncut, and his supplies in the neighbourhood cut off, or unavailable. On Wednesday morning the coach from Limerick, through Rathcoole, was obliged to wait till the coachman, guard, and agent, harnessed and changed the horses. No ostler or helper could be found— all had thrown up their situations at the sound of the horn. Lord Cloncurry is fully as much perplexed. His fine meadows on the hill of Lyons lie uncut, and all his crops and cattle unattended, save by his livery servants. He obtained the aid of Alderman Dailey, the chief magistrate of police,7 with a military escort from Dublin, to proceed to Lyons, and investigate the circumstances of what he repre sents as " the conspiracy of the labourers against the landholders." But this will have little effect. His Lordship has already a strong police station in his gate-house, and has nothing to dread from violence on the part of the country-people. He has since been constantly (and conspicuously) in communica tion with Lord Anglesey at the Castle, but nothing satisfactory to the tithe interest, or to his Lordship has resulted from the interference of the chief ma gistrate.

SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.--A few years age, at an obscure house in a court in Piccadilly, appro priated for the purposes of an anatomical school, a poor woman occupied the ground fluor who actually dealt in musclel, her husband was a bone-merchant, and over the doer was a board, with this inscr iption--mang/in g done here! The Rev. E. I RVING i s the only out-of door orator whose railings against the Reform measure are tolerated by the out-of-door public. The Rev. Gentleman employs his Sunday mornings in denouncing from his pulpit, in his usual place, under the wall of the Hous e of Correction, the Reform Act, Reformers, Political Unions, Sze. He contends, in a style worthy of the Charles- s t reet Conservatives, that the " new privileges which have been so much vaunted will only tend to produce strife and dis sension—that they will set man against man--and that they will end in blood." It having been very generally (and errone ous!y, but of course not designedly) circulated throughout the county of Bucks, that Mr, JOHN S➢LITH, one of that county's representatives, di , l not intend offering himself at the approaching general election for Buckinghamshire, a .correspondent in Saturday's Bucks Gazette (dating his communication Chesham, July 4), says—" I have this morning seen a letter from Mr. JOHN SMITH, to a free holder residing in the town, in which he states he wishes it to be publicly made known that it is his intentio❑ again to come forward ; and being conscious of not having for feited any of the pledges which he gave at the last election, be fears not to meet his constituents, and never had the least idea of retiring."

Upwards of twenty boats were imme diately manned by the principal part of the male villagers, who armed themselves with every kind of offensive wea po they could become possessed of, viz. sithes, spades, I "rks, &c., and after a combat of several hours, they suc ceeded in securing three, of which the following are the tErnensions :—fir s t 10 feet long by 6 feet 2 inches in girth; second 11 f. et by 6 feet 5 inches; and the third I 1 feet 3 inches. The remaining part of the shoal made their escape, on the flowing of the following tide, but not till several of them had been most severely lacerated with the instruments made use of in the taking of those above named, Mr. BERNAL and other Members of the House of I Commons brought up the Boundaries Bill with the amend ments made by their Lordships agreed to. Mr. EWART and others brought up a message from the House of Commons, stating that the Commons did not insist on their disagreements to the Bill, entitled an Act for the Abolition of Punishment by Death in certain cases. Mr. BEKNAL and others brought up the Metropolitan Cemetery Bill with the amendments agreed to. The Custom Wharf Sale Bill was read a third time and passed. Lord KING presented a petition from a place in the County of Lanark, respecting the Boundary Bill. The same NOBLE Loan presented a petition fi oat a parish in Ireland, praying for the abolition of Tithes in Ireland. The Report on the Anatomy Bill was brought up. The Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Friday next, and the Lords to he summoned for that day. The Duke of RICHMOND gave notice, that he will move that the Remedies Bill against the Hundred be com mitted on Friday next. The Marquess of WESTMEATH inquired whether the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack had any ob jection to the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill being brought on at this period of the day ? He considered himself en titled to ask this question, because the Noble and Learned Lord had brought on the subject of this Bill (upon the re port) at a late hour Let night, and, indeed, so late and so snugly was it done, that he believed it had not been notieed by any one of the newspapers. He moved that the Bill be' now brought up on the third reading. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the Noble Marquess bad began what he had to say by asking a ques tion, and ended by making a motion—(Loud laughter) —rather a comical sort of statement. He (the Lord Chancellor) bad intended to move that the House should proceed further upon the Scotch Reform Bill immediately, but if it were a matter of consequence to the Noble Marquess, he would not object to the bring ing in of the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill just now. He begged, however, to say respecting that Bill, that the sub ject had been brought on in its regular course last night, and after he had distinctly informed the Noble Marquess that he intended to bring it on. The Marquis of WESTMEATH said it was very true that at ten o'clock last night he asked the Noble and Learned Lord if it was his intention to bring on the Bill, and he said it was. He (the Noble Marquess) had, how • ever, remained in the House till twelve o'clock—nothing had been said about it up to that time, but after be had left the House he understood it had been brought on. It was to be hoped this was not the way in which the third reading was intended to be smuggled through, be cause it certainly was not a very desirable mode of dis posing of public business. The LORD CHANCELLOR said why any Noble Lord should believe a Bill was not to come on because be had been told that it would come on, he could not ima gine. He had told the Noble Magness last night, in as distinct terms as he could express himself, that the Bill would come on, and it did come in its regular course. He begged to inform the Noble Marquis now that it was his intention to bring in the Bill again to-night, but that unless he were asked to let it be brought on out of its regular course, he certainly would not move the third reading until the busines which stood before it had been got through. The Marquess of WESTMEATH—I ask for no such accommodation. The Lord CHANCELLOR then said he saw no reason why the accommodation ..should be granted, and that unless advi se d by their Lordships to the contrary, he should proceed regularly with the busi ness as it stood before the House. The whole House then resolved itself, upon the motion of the Duke of Rion- MOND, into a Committee upon the SCOTCH REFORM BILL. The 101. householders clause, and several others, were agreed to without opposition. The Duke of BUCCLEUCH thought it would be better that the election for the county of Edinburgh should take Place at Dalkeith rather than Edinburgh, but did not move any amendment. The Earl of HADDINGTON obser ve d th a t t h e _ _ Islands of Orkney and Shetland were at suc h a distance from each other that the Sheriff or Under-Sheriff would require to have a Government steam-boat at his command during the whole time of the elections. Several verbal amendmends were then made in various clauses of the Bill, at the suggestion of the LORD CHANCELLOR. The Earl of HADDINGTON regretted that the Bill should have come from the Commons without enacting a qualification for the Member to be elected, and he would consider whether he would not move an amendment in this respect on the report. . _ The whole of the clauses and schedules were then agreed !o, and the report ordered to be brought up on Thursday. ECCLESIASTICAL CONTEMPTS BILL. The report of the Committee was brought up, and The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the third reading of this Bill. The Marquess of %VESTMEATH considered this Bill a most foul attempt to pass an ex post facto law. He spoke with feelings of great pain--with as painful feelings, per haps, as any Noble Lord had ever spoken under. The Noble and Learned Lord attempted to throw dust in their eyes. He complained that the Bill had a retrospective view, and he felt convinced that the Bill was designed against him, and him alone. The Noble Marquess fur ther stated, that it was of consequence to know who was the author of the Bill. The parent of the Bill was Dr. Lushington. The Noble and Learned Lord put the Bill into the hands of those who had preyed on him, with a view of enabling them to obtain that from him what the law of the land did not enable them to get. That %vas the origin of this retrospective Bill. [The Noble Marquess spoke at much greater length against the Bill, but the House not being lighted up—the Noble Marquess called for a light to read some document. It was quite impos• Bible to take any notes. For upwards of half an hour their Lordships continued to talk in that state of comparative darkness; their voices were heard, and they were dimly seen, but what they said could not be written.]—The Noble Marquess condemned in strong terms a Learned Individual, whom he called a Judge, a Commissioner, a retrospective Bill- drawer, and said that he hail brought forward the measure after be had refused all the terms of ar- rangetnent which had been offered. That Learned Person declared he would have the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill. The Noble Marquess subse quently alluded to a prosecution he had instituted ag I inst some witnesses for a conspiracy—when some of them were sentenced to be imprisoned, but the principal con spirator escaped, owing to his humanity and forbearance. The Noble and Learned Lord h a d g l osse d over a ll this transaction. It was the tyrannous conduct which had raised his indignation, and made him resolve to bring the whole matter before their Lordships. The LORD CHANCELLOR doubted whether he ought to take any notice whatever of the observations of the Noble Marquess. The Noble Marquess seemed to wish to entice him to enter into an investigation of the Noble Marquess's domestic concerns, and all the law-suits in which he had been engaged; but he should do no such thing. He knew little or nothing of those transactions, but what had come to his knowledge as having been once employed as Counsel far the Noble Marquess ; and be knew that the final judgment had been given against the Marquess. Against the sentence of the Ecclesiastical Court the Noble Marquess had appealed to a Court a Review, and there he believed the final judgment was against the Noble Marquess. The Noble Marquess had charged him with a wilful suppression of the particulars of his case— The Marquess of 'WESTMEATH (interrupting the Lord Chancellor) had stated that the Noble and Learned Lord had undertaken to mention his case to the House, and the Noble and Learned Lord should not have dune that, unless he bad stated the whole case. The LORD CHANCELLOR did not undertake to state the Noble Marquess's case, hut the Noble Marquess had in tiis speech made one of the most furious attacks upon him, and in the most unmeasured language of any of the attacks that he had ever witnessed or heard in any public assembly. One part of the Noble Marquess' s attack was bemuse he bad alluded to his case in the House, and had referred to some of the disputes in which the Noble Mai quest; had been involved with his wife—[The Marquess of Westmeath again interrupted the Lord Chancellor, and repeated some of his former observations.] —.He had already mentioned HOUSE OF COMMONS, JULY 10. Mr. J. GORDON presented a petition from Glasgow, signed by 1,600 persons, against the grant to the College of Miynooth, and observed that when the Irish Estimates came before the House, he would express the whole of his objections to that annual grant. The Hon. Member then presented a petition from George Washington Bustead, late Colonial Secretary for the island of St. Lucia, praying for an inquiry into the circumstances of his dismissal from office. Mr. DAWSON, in reference to this latter petition, moved that it be printed. He did not mean to pledge himself to the truth of the charges in the petition, but as they imputed to Lord Goderich the dismissal of the peti tioner without cause, and to Lord Grey that he had re fused to institute any inquiry, it was but just that the p etition should be printed. After a few words from Mr. LAMB and Mr. LEFROY, the motion to print the petition was negatived. Mr. J. GORDON then moved that the petition from Glasgow be printed. Mr. SHELL pointed out some passages in it which he thought were objectionable, as speaking of " the blood of saints," " idolatry," &c. Mr. O'CONNELL—ReaIIy, it is high time we had left off abusing one another.—(Hear, bear.) Mr. GORDON said he had known petitions presented on other occasions which were couched in similar lan guage, and while the words objected to formed part of the standard of a certain creed, he saw no objection to their being used in the petition. Sir R. INGLIS advocated the printing of the petition. Mr. O'CONNELL deprecated the raking up of ancient animosities, and, therefore, felt bound to oppose the print ing of the petition. Mr. DUNDAS had read the petition, and thought it one which ought to be printed. If the House refused to print such petitions, the petitioners would adopt measures for printing and circulating them themselves. Mr. W. Y. PEEL thought, if the petition contained any thing objectionable to any party, the better course would be not to have the petition printed. After some observations from Mr. SHEIL and Mr. C. PELHAM, strangers were ordered to withdraw. The motion for the printing of the petition was nega tived without a division. Mr. GORDON presented a petition from Brainsford against the annual grant to the College of Maynooth. Mr. WILBRAHAM presented a petition from the county of Chester, complaining of the amount of the taxes levied by the magistrates, of the expense of the sys tem on which the county gaol is at present conducted, the same of the county lunatic asylum, and of the general ex pense of the county. One thing be would particularly notice wqs the Local Constabulary Act, which was passed on the recommendation of the Magistrates about four years ago. That Act added greatly to the expense of the county, without in the least doing any equivalent good. He was told that it was tried as an experiment for the coun try generally, but why should the county of Chester be taxed for that purpose? He thought it would be of incalcula ble service to the public if Magistrates were obliged to do the busimss at the Quarter Sessions in an open Court. Lord GROSVENOR defended the conduct of the Ma. gistrates. Though the petition purported to be that of the county, it was not, like many that had lately been presented, agreed to at a meeting of 6,000 persons. He would undertake to say that not sixty attended the meeting. It was, in fact, merely the petition of Mr. Davis Davenport, the only Magistrate who attended the meeting. The House would come to the same conclusion as him, when they knew that there were only five resolu tions agreed upon at it, and that the first, third, and fourth were proposed by Mr. D ivenport himself, while the fifth was merely a vote of thanks to him. Mr. LAMB, in answer to a question which had been put to him, said he could not determinately say whether or not the General Police Bill would be extended to Cheshire; it would, however, be considered. Mr. WARBURTON hal been requested to support the petition. It was most desirable and necessary that the people belonging to the different counties should not only have the county expenditure properly regulated, but that they should know that it was so. Mr. PAGET and Mr. C. PELHAM also supported the petition. Mr. WILBRAHAM begged to observe that he wished to convey no imputation whatever upon the Magistrates, and with regard to the interference of Mr. Davenport at the meeting, it was very common for some one person to act a prominent part. The petitioners felt themselves much burdened, particularly in regard to the expense of the con stabulary, and they had a perfect right to come to this House. So far from their statements being exaggerated, he showed by documents that they had understated their causes of complaints. As to the constabulary, they should not solely be appointed to protect the mansions or game pre serves of the great, but also to protect the property of the public generally. Mr. HUME asked whether individuals should be ap pointed to the magistracy having no interest in the county, but who should have the power to tax the people. It appeared to him that it was so in Cheshire, and it was a great evil ; anoth er point was, that the appeals were disposed of by the Magistrates with closed doors. That he con conceived was a heavy grievance, and one which ought to be redressed. Another point was, that the clergy were so busy with their Magisterial duties, that they could not discharge their more sacred duties. On those three grounds the lion. Member supported the prayer of the petition, as h e had been requested to do by the petitioners. The petition was then read and ordered to be printed. Mr. WILBRAHAM then presented a similar petition from another hundred in the same county. POLAND. Colonel EVANS gave notice of his intention, on Thurs day next, to move a resolution of the House to the effect, that unless Russia performed her part of the Convention •of Vienna, it was no longer binding on this country. COURT OF CHANCERY. Mr. SPENCE rose to move for leave to bring in a Bill relative to the practice of the Court of Chancery. He observed that the promised Bill of the Lord Chancellor mould apply to some part of the proceedings in that Court, but not to that to which he now wished to direct the atten tion of the House. The object of his Bill was to prevent expense and delay in the administration of the estate of a deceased testator or intestate. At present, if a creditor of a deceased's estat e claimed payment of his demand, lie had to file a bill, at a considerable expense, and to that both bill and answ er were d rawn upon a common f orm , was put in also at a great expense, and bill an answer , and required no skill to prepare them; but their enormou length rendered them very costly. It was the object r his Bill to propose, that instead of this process of bill and answer, as now adopted, where it was sought to administet the estate of a testator or an intestate, there should be em ployed a short form, comprising but a few lines, and whirl should in substance amount to a citation of the opposite party before the Court. This citation should state that the party at whose suit it was issued yea, a creditor to the estate of the testator or intestate who had died indebted tr him, that the defendant was the executor or administrator of the deceased party, and should call on him to show cause why the estate of the deceased should not be admiuistered in payment of his debts; or if the suit was brought hy a residuary legatee, why, after p tyment of the debts and legacies, the residue should not be applied in the manner stated in the will itself. Unless the d.- fendant could show some real cause why this should not he done, he should not be allowed to put in any answer at all, and the estate should then be administered in the same manner as it would be now after the Master's report and the other proceedings. Ia this manner the expenses of proceedings at law, and the expenses incurred in prevent ing those proceedings, would both be saved, and suits which now sometimes swallowed up the profits of an estate would be prevented. There would, besides, be this ad vantage attending his Bill. It would enable the legatee, or the executor, at once to obtain, by a short mode of pro ceeding, the opinion of the Court on the construction of the will, without compelling the Court to take on itself the administration of the estate ; and this would be highly advantageous, when all that was wanted was the opinion of the Court, in order to enable an executor or admi nistrator to administer the estate. Connected with the Bill which the Lord Chancellor was himself to bring in, a creditor or an executor would be enabled to conduct a suit at one-third of the expense which was new necessarily in curred. In short, it would save all the expense prior ti going into the Master's Office. He begged to move for leave to bring in a Bill to diminish the expense and delay of proceedings in the High Court of Chancery in certain cases. Sir E. SUGDEN should reserve what he had to say for the future stages of the Bill, as they would afford a fine' opportunity for discussion. Ile must, however, take the liberty of dedrecating this Bill having been delayed to the very last moment; more especially as the present Minis ters, when in opposition, had pledged themselves to a Re form in the Court of Chancery, and yet, after accepting office, had allowed two whole years to elapse without making any progress in redeeming that pledge. Mr. SPENCE had pledged himself to the House that after last Christmas he would introduce a Bill to regulate the Master'. Office; and that Bill was actually pre paled, and would have been brought in; but that after be ing submitted to the Lord Chancellor, it was thought that it would be better to bring in a more general Bill for cor recting abuses in all the offices.—Leave given. CHARITIES IN IRELAND. Mr. S. RICE obtained leave to bring in a Bill to regu- late charities in Ireland, partly maintained by Grand Jury presentments. FAUNTLEROY'S FORGERIES. Mr. HUME, in moving for returns of the number of forgeries committed on the Bank, for the transfer of Stock since 1800, adverted to a petition trusted to him by the creditors of Marsh, Stracey, Fauntleroy, and Co.. complaining of the conduct of the Bank of England. He considered that this was a question in which the Chan cellor of the Exchequer was more concerned than any man in the country, because it was his duty to take cart that those persons who placed their property in the pub lic funds did not suffer any loss by the negligence of the agents of the Government. The present was exactly a case which bore upon this principle ; and he, therefore, thought that it was one which ought to be settled by the Noble Lord in his official capacity, and not by the Bank of England, who were parties interested in the results. The complaint against the Bank was, that it had allowed Fauntleroy, by means of forged powers of attorney, to ob tain possession of stock ; and when the rightful owners applied for the transfer, the Bank refused to allow it, and had indeed succeeded in preventing it. This he held to be an act of gross injustice; and he called upon the House to interfere on that ground. The petitioners were the creditors of Marsh, Fauntleroy, and Co. ; and the Bank had announced that they would not pay the interest nor allow any transfer of the stock, unless the creditors in the first instance endeavoured to rank themselves for part pay. ment out of the bankrupts' estate. The creditors, in reply to this, alleged that the Bank had no right to force them to establish their claim ; and he was instructed by this petitio❑ to state, that three decisions in Courts of Law went to prove that the money that Fauntleroy had thus fraudulently received had never been put into the common banking stock of the house of which he was one of the partners ; from which it clearly appeared that these per sons had no claim upon the assets of this banking con cern. Since the detection of the forgeries, it had been discovered that for seventeen years this system of forgery Ld been carried on by Fauntleroy, entirely owing to the neglect and inattention of the servants of the Bank. From 1307 to 1824 Fauntleroy was thus in the habit of trans ferring stock on forged powers, till at last nearly 300,0001. had been transferred from the real owners. Sir E. SUGDEN—Having been retained as Counsel for the creditors, if he was in another place he should make use of the expression that he was on the same side as the Hon. Gentleman, though of course he could not pre. tend to vie with him in ability or in his knowledge of the law; nor, he trusted, should he imitate the Hon. Gentle- man in the confusion of facts with which he had indulged the House. But though it would be much to the inte rest of his clients to receive the sanction of the House, he felt that he had a still higher duty to perform as a Mem ber of the Legislature, and in that capacity he begg-d to enter his protest against the proceeding of the Hon. Gen tleman. The point at issue had gone through all the Courts of Westminster Hall, and was now pending in the House of Lords, where it would be finally decided in a short time ; and he, therefore, asserted that nothing could be more improper or indecorous than for the point to he brought before the House of Commons on an exparte statement at such a juncture.—(Cheers.) Another thing which he was bound to say was, that the Hon. Gentleman did not seem to be acquainted with one fortieth of the facts of . the case, and had actually confounded the person in whose name the stock was standirg with those who claimed against the estate of Marsh and Co. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON defended the conduct of the Bank, which bad sustained a loss of three hundred thousand pounds, and only required in return that those whose names had been forged should place the Bank in the same situation in which they themselves were. Sir C. WETHERELL said the Hon. Member had thought proper to attack the Bank for not paying the di vidends, when the real tact was, that the Bank paid them so soon as the creditors had consented to prove against the joint estate of the bankrupts ; therefore, without meaning anything disrespectful, he must take the liberty of telling the Hon. Member for Middlesex that he did not under stand one particle of the brief that he had opened. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed it was true that a great loss bad been incurred ; but he certainly was unable to see anything in that loss t o ca ll for the interference of the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; and, therefore, as far as the appeal was made to him, he must say that it seemed to him to be founded in mistake. Mr. KNIGHT also contended that the case ought not to have been brought forward ; as it was one of mere law, and was now pending in a court of law. Sir C. FORBES said a few words, which were not distinctly heard in the gallery. Mr. FRESHFIELD defended the conduct of the Bank. Mr. HUME denied that lie had made any incorrect statement. It was very easy for Gentlemen to make charges of ignorance and indelicacy, but before Gentlemen indulged in such taunts, they ought to be prepared to prove that he had mis-stated fasts.--(Hear.)—Motion agreed to. CUSTOMS' DUTIES BILL. On the motion of Lord ALTHORP, the House went into Committee on the Customs' Duties Bill. Mr. P. THOMSON should propose certain trifling alterations in the schedules, which Hon. Members would have an opportunity of reconsidering at another stage of the Bill. The Right Hon. Gentleman then moved, that the sum of 8031. be granted out of the consolidated fund, for the purchase of local port charges on wines in the county palatine of Lancaster. \lt. HUME objectvd to this sum being granted in per. petuity out of the consolidated fund. He considered it as sanctioning a sinecure. Lord ALTHORP said, that the present was a claim attached to the Duchy of Lancaster, and one that must be acknowledged so long as the Duchy existed. Mr. HUME said, that the present vote showed that the On the motion of Mr. STANLEY, the House proceed e ) the Order of the Day for the adjourned debate on the Mlles (Ireland) Bill. Mr. HUME doubted whether there was not some mis mderstanding respecting this order, as several Irish Mein 'iers were not present, the lion. Member for Kerry among he rest. He (Mr. Hume) did not think that the ques tion should be entered upon in the present state of the Session. He did not like the plan of the Right Hon. Gentleman, though he agreed in the principle of commu tition ; he wished for the abolition of tithes and the sub oitution of a money rent. But in the second and third outs of his plan he did not agree. He hoped the Right fon. Gentleman would see the impossibility of passing the Bills in the present Session, and would suffer the whole measure to lie over for the consideration of a new Parlia :new. He wished to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman , vhether he meant to carry the three Bills this Session, or ,nly one Bill ; he thought that one Bill would add to the ..xisting difficulties of the Irish Government. Mr. STANLEY had stated, upon a former occasion, that his intention was to ley before the House a connected ;clan, but not to press all the Bills this session. He agreed chat it was not possible to press the entire measure this .ession. But the first Bill the Government were pledged -0 carry through ; it was essential to the credit both of the Government and the country, dart it should be carried through, as that part of the plan without which they could not proceed a single step. Mr. LEADER was glad to hear that it was not the inz t mtion of the Right Hen. Gentleman to press the measure 0' the establishment of ecclesiastical corporations in Ireland: The effect of this measure would be to su , pend the agricul tural industry of the country, and thereby not only reduce this population to a still lower condition of misery, but atop the transmission of 6,000,0001. of taxes to England. His wild and visionary measure would not merely extin .zuish tithes, but tend to the total extinction of rent. He xarned those Irish Members who supported the Right Hone secretary in this measure, of the consequences of forcing their constituents. If the Right Hon. Secretary could raise his half million by a land-tax fairly spread over the country, abolishing the name and character of ithes, and thus get rid of the mischievous machinery of his Bill, why should he object, while at the same time he would give satisfaction to a whole people who knew the iorrors of having two establishments to support.—(Hoar e }rear.) The Irish Members were determined to stand Of fall by the resolutions proposed by the Member for Wick .ow. The measure proposed by the Right lion. Secre tary was replete with ruin, and it never could possibly be !arried into effect without producing the most dientren49 msequences. Mr. J. BROWNE would implore his Majesty's Govern. went, in the name of the public safety, to pause before hey determined to persevere in such a course, which was aregnant with the most dangerous consequences, not only to Ireland, but to the empire at large. He contended that In entire alteration was imperiously called for, not only in application of the church property, but in the state of the ithurcla government in those countries, and that such au alteration was absolutely for the satisfactory settlement of the peace of the empire. The only country in Europe in ,c•liich some species of ecclesiastical reform had not taken ' ,lace, was in the reformed church of England and Ire land. Such a question as this should not be hastily con •idered at the end of a Session. Mr. MULLINS moved the adjournment of the debate to Thursday. Mr. RUT HVEN seconded the motion. Lord ALTHORP said, it was one of the Orders of the D Ly, and that it was understood it would come on, if it could possibly he brought on to-night. Sir J. BILYDGES and Mr. LAMBERT opposed the ad journment. A long and very desultory conversation, of no public in terest, followed the proposition of adj.urnment, which ended in the Hon. Mover (Mr. Mullins) withdrawing it. The adjmrned debate was then resumed ; the immediate question before the House being the amendment on Mr. S :Iraq's motion for leave to bring in a Bill for a com otilsory commutation of tithes in Ireland, of Mr. J. Grattan, that the permanent settlement of the tithe question should be left to a Reformed Parliament. Mr. LAMBERT would vote for the amendment. Sir R. PEEL would support Ministers in carrying their measure immediately into a 1 iw. Unless Parliament showed that it was determined to put down the present system of illegal combination against tithes in Ireland, the next step would be to resist the payment of rents. Mr. WYSE, in support of the amendment, contended that a'l that was wanting to allay the present anti title ,xeitement in Ireland was the substituting the Hon. Mem ocr fol. Wicklow's resolution for the present obnoxious Bill. Lord ALTHORP trusted that Parliament would not separsite without expressing its decided determination to stand by the law in resisting the illegal combination against the payment of tithes in Ireland. The amendment, from its very vagueness and want of practical application, was worse than useless, and was evidently framed in ignorance ,f the intentions of Ministers. Every man must feel gra tified by the prospect of a permanent settlement of so dif ficult a question as that of tithes in Ireland ; and he assured the Irish Members that their English brethren vi uld feel that they had attained a great boon in being lOaced in the situation in which the Bill would place them. Among the other advantages of the proposed measure, it would put a❑ end to the abuses of the agistment system, _ . long in force in Ireland, and would relieve die tenant from an irksome tax, without placing the landlord in a fliqagreeable situation, inasmuch as he would have no more difficulty in collecting his tithe than his rent. Mr. M. O'FERRALL opposed the propositio❑ of the R ght lion. Secretary. Mr. JEPHSON thought that Ministers ought to have oornmenced their measures of amendment by reducing the Church E,tablishment in Ireland. Their present propo .. . . sition would do no good, and would not, he was afraid, prevent the spilling of much blood in that country. Mr. BLACKNEY said, that the measures which had been proposed by the Right Hon. Secretary for Ireland only increased the difficulty of settling the tithe question. Toe whole plan was a perfect farce. It was totally im possible to collect tithes in Ireland. Mr. CALLAGHAN moved the adjournment of the de bate till Friday next. Sir 51. W. RIDLEY opposed the motion of adjournment. Mr. STANLEY was exceedingly unwilling to adjour❑ the debate, but he should not oppose the motion, if there remained many Members desirous of expressing their opi nion on the subject.—(Hear, hear.) Alter a few words from Mr. M. O'CoNac ELL and Lord .IoHN RUSSELL the debate was adjourned till Friday next. 'l' he other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at Hrlf-past Two o'clock.

THE NARRATIONS OF TRAVELLERS.- " l is truly delightful," says an eminent writer, " for those whose pursuits, whose habits, or whose inclinations hind them to ' one spot of earth,' to be enabled to peruse the adventures of the traveller in distant lands, far re ed from his friends and kindred. In following his !fines, we gradually become attached to his person; —r ,-ticipate in his j o y s or his sorrows ; share with him, as P 3 were, his perils and his fatigues ; and when we arrive the termination of his ' travel's whom'shisto w history'—feel haveasi. part - in.: for ever f rom an esteeme d friend ryvn."
