Mr. O'CONNELL hid, on a former night, beard one of its Majesty's Ministers speak cif l A4.4tirie_for an extinc ion of tithes, and consequently, in ireti l fittit was believed at the word was taken literally ; but it now seemed that here was not to be an extinction but an adoption of tithes n some other form. Sir C. WETHERELL had never understood that there vas to be an extinction of tithes without compensation. Lord ALTHORP said he had used the words extinc tion of tithes, and it certainly was the intention of his Majesty's Government to extinguish tithes, but not with wit making a compensation in lieu thereof to the clergy. •('he mode of collecting the tithes, and various other cir c.umstances connected with them, were very great evils and such as could not be got rid of so lorz as the preset.t system existed.

Lord BaowNLow and the Earl of SOUTHAMPTON com plained of the decision of the Committee on some parts of the Birmingham and London Railway Bill, and praying for the appointment of a committee of appeal. The petition was ordered to be printed and to be taken into consideration en Monday next. "On the motion of Lord STANLEY, the amendments of the Lords on the Chorltonrow Improvement Bill were read a second time. Mr. PORTMAN brought up the report of the Select Committee en the general Highway Bill, which wau or dered to be printed and to be taken into consideration on Monday next. Mr. WRANGHAM presented a petition from the Earl of Stirling, who set forth certain charters in his favour, and prayed to be heard against the forma tion of the Canada Company, which would be an en croachment upon his private rights. After a few observations from Mr. HUNT and the SPEAKER, the petition was ordered to be printed. Lord OXMANTOWN presented a petition from the High Sheriff and Grand Jury of King's County, praying the House to adopt some extraordinary measure to meet the alarming increase of crime. He also presented two petitions from pari , hes in Wexford and the King's County, praying that the punishment of death in cases of forgery might be abolished. Mr. WYSE presented several petitions from Tipperary, Clonmel, and Galway, in favour of a more extended mea sure than that now before the House; also several peti tions praying for the abolition of tithes. The Hort. MEMBER also presented a petition from a town in Tipperary, against the punishment of death in cases of forgery. Mr. BRISCOE hoped the day was not far distant when the law for the punishment of death in cases of forgery would be blotted out of the Statute.book. Sir H. BUNBURY presented a petition from Bury St. Edmunds for a modification of the Penal Code. Lord MORPETH presented a petition from Knares borough, praying that that place might be substituted for Ripley, in taking the poll at elections.

Member also gave notice of a motion for the 16th of June for the improvement of the condition of the working classes in large towns. Mr. HUNT gave notice of his intention to present a tition from Nottingham, complaining of the conduct of ie gaoler, on Monday next. Sir CHARLES WETHERELL moved for certain re urns relative to fire insurances —Ordered. Mr. O'CONNELL rose to present two petitions from he Councils of Political Unions,—but, being only signed by the Chairman and Secretary, they were objected to by th e Speaker, and the Learned Gentleman withdrew them. Mr. HUNT said, that in consequence of what had aken place while he was in the country, he would renew his motion for the 26th June, for the abolition of the Corn Laws. He saw by the papers that the Noble Lord (Milton) had come to some arrangement with the House by which his motion was postponed. He expected something of that sort would take place, and therefore he had given his notice, which, through some mistake, had been taken out of the book ; he begged that it might be replaced in its original position. Mr. O'CONNELL, seeing the Hon. Member the Un der-Secretary for the Home Department in his place, begged to draw his attention to a statement contained in the Morning Herald. It purported to he a report of proceed ings that took place at Hatton-garden Police Office, and he would say that, if true, it was a most gross piece of bar barity, both on the part of the police and the Magistrate. It was the case of a poor woman who was selling a few nuts on the street, when she was attacked by a policeman—her basket and goods thrown about on the street, and herself struck and abused, and afterwards taken before a Magistrate, who fined her—a poor woman who was only endeavouring to maintain her sick husband and four children in an honest manner. It further appeared, that when before the Magistrate, a wit ness came for ward in her behalf, who was grossly insulted by him. He did not see that it was proper for any Magistrate so to act. He wished to bring the case under the notice of the Government, and if be did not receive some satis factory explanation he would feel it his duty to bring it formally before the House. Mr. LAMB had seen the statement alluded to by the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, but it was very much exaggerated in the papers, and he was sorry to see that many of the newspapers lent themselves to make gross charges against the police force. The facts of the case, as reported to him were these :—Hatton-garden was •ery peculiar ly situated, being the boundary between the City and Westminster, and there a great many persons of the same class as this woman ware in the habit of vending their fruit, &c. which was much complained of by the inhabitants ; and it was not till after repeated complaints were made, that the magistrates gave orders that the police should put a stop to them, and clear the place. He was quite ready to admit that this was a law which ought not to be enforced with rigour, but the complaints were so nu merous that it was absolutely necessary that the police should interfere in this instance. The woman, with many other persons of her sort, was selling her nuts there that day. It was said by Mr. Lewin, who had come forward in her behalf, that the policeman ought to have told her to go away; but the fact was, that o❑ two different occasions on that same day, be had done so, and on returning a third time, in place of going away peaceably, she struck the policeman before he in terfered at all. The Newspapers omitted one very important fact, namely, that a very respectable work ing man came forward, quite unsolicited, and on his oath stated that the policeman had acted with the greatest propriety. The language put into the Magistrate's mouth was much exaggerated, but he (Mr. L.) had no hesitation in saying that he had used words which he would much rather he had not used, and which were disgraceful from the Bench. He had fined the woman, but, on a little reflection, had discharged her. Mr. O'CONNELL was glad to hear the latter words of the Right Hon. Gentleman, and hoped they would be con veyed to the magistrate. Sir E. SUGDEN regretted the harshness of the law, but Magistrates and the police were obliged to do their duty. It was very advisable however that that duty should be performed in as mild a manner as possible. Mr. O'CONNELL thought it a great protection to the poor and to the public generally, that the newspapers gave such reports. Mr. HUNT complained that such reports were very partial, and much to be blamed. Lord ALT HORP moved the Order of the Day for the House to resolve itself into a Committee on the Scotch Reform Bill. • Before the question was put, Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET inquired what had become of the Bill which several months ago bad passed that House, and which, referring to the supervision of Asylums, bad been sent to the other House of Parliament ? Mr. LAMB would be sorry if the Bill referred to fell through, but although it was not a Government Bill, he would make inquiry after it. The SPEAKER then put the motion, and lilt. PRINGLE rose to bring forward his proposition, that the classification of the Scotch Burghs be referred to a Select Committee. Lord ALTHORP was of opinion that the question would be much better settled by a Committee of the whole House than by a Select Committee. The main principle had been to disturb the present distribution of Scotch burghs as little as possible; and it would be far better for those Hon. Members who had any objections to the mode of distribution proposed to be adopted to make those ob jections when the question came regularly before the House. The motion was then negatived without a division; and the House resolved itself into Committee on the SCOTCH REFORM BILL. Mr. BERNAL in the Chair. Clause 48, as amended, was ordered to stand part of the Bill. . _ _ Clause 49 was omitted, having been otherwise provided The CHAIRMAN then read schedule A containing a list of counties to return one Member each ; and upon arriving at the county of Perth, Sir GEORGE MURRAY rose to move, according to previous notice, that the county of Perth be not die. membered for the purpose of adding to the constituency of any other county. It was not necessary for him to trouble the House relative to the dismemberment of the county of Argyle, as he understood that had been abandoned by his Majesty's Ministers. But it appeared to him that a great injustice was about to be done to ►he county of Perth by this part of the Bill. And he felt it his duty to resist it, not only as representative for that county, hut on a broader ground—that of opposing a principle which was for the first time introduced. This was the only instance in the measure of Reform either for England, Ireland, or Scotland, in which a part of a county had been cut off for the purpose of annexing it to and adding to the constituency of two adjoining counties —(Hear.) If any such proposal had been made in the case of the English Bill, he ventured to affirm it would have been objected to, and effectually resisted in the strongest manner. He could not, therefore, under stand why a principle should be applied to Scotland which would have been rejected, if attempted to be applied to Eng land. It was a principle which, if adopted, would lead to dangerous consequences, and might alter and destroy all the original boundaries of counties throughout the kingdom. He could not understand why addition should be made to one county at the expense of another ; and by the present clause it was proposed to take from the county of Perth, for the purpose of adding Kinross to Clackmannan. If it had been proposed to detach from all counties whatever portions should be disconnected,he should have no objection. He hoped the Noble Lord opposite would take this sub ject into his seriou s consideration, and would ultimately abandon the objectionable parts of the claim. (LErr 4EAKING.) HOUSE OF LORDS. The Earl of WICKLOW presented a petition from Tullamore, and a not h er f rom anot h er p l ace, i n f avour o f the King's County Aasize Bill. Mr. BARING and other Members of the House of Com mons brought up the Consolidated Fund Bill. The Earl of WICKLOW moved the second reading of the King's County Assize Bill, and that it be committed on Monday next. On the motion of Lord ROSEBERY, the whole House resolved itself into a Comittee on the Bill for enabling the Scotch Representative Peers to qualify in Ireland; and after a slight verbal alterat i o n, p ro p osed by the Nobl e L ord, which was agreed to, the report was ordered to be received on Monday next. The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition in fa vour of the Anatomy Bill. Lord KING presented a petition from the inhabitants of Chester, complaining that the corporation property was Earl RODEN presented a petition front the City of Oxford, very numerously signed, praying their Lordships o revise the Penal laws, by which the punishment of lead] was enacted, with a view to their amelioration. Ilse Noble Earl also presented petitions, principally from ulaces in Ireland, against the new system of education in.. roduced into Ireland. The Duke of RICHMOND moved that the Postmaster and Clerk of the Peace of Derby, Stafford, Monmouth, Oxford, and some other places, be ordered to attend at the Bar of the House on the 23d instant, for not having furnished certain returns, to which on a former night he had adverted, should those returns not be supplied in the interim.

The Marquess of LONDONDERRY begged to call 'he attention of the Noble Earl at the head of the Go vernment to the progress of Political Unions, and entreated him to take some measure to suppress them. He had !earned intelligence from the north of England, which in. formed him of some most outrageous proceedings of these Unions. A meeting of ooe of them had taken place at Sunderland, at which Mr. Larkin, the friend of Dr. Head. lain, had said that the Noble Earl was a weak instrument in the hands of the people, and gave instructions to tha people how to act on the coming general elec tion. A publication had been issued to the public by one of the Northern Unions to the same effect, telling them that the bustle of freedom was only begun, and that they must require for all Parlia mentary candidates pledges to procure a free press, universal suffrage, annual Parliaments, and vote by b Mot. The favoured borough of Gateshead had already acted upon his advice, and the Political Union of that town had put forward a candidate who had been required to be the mere delegate of the people. In abort, if the progress of these Unions were not stopped, they would take the entire Government of the country into their hands. He trusted, therefore, that his Majesty's Minis tens would, before the dissolution of Parliament, devise some measure to put them down. Mr. Pitt, with a view to put down the friendly and corresponding societies, of 1794 had suggested certain measures wich he recom mended to the attention of Government. He would now only ask the Noble Earl whether be contemplated putting the common law in force against these societies ; and if that were found insufficient for the purpose, to bring in a Bill which would put a stop to the evil of which he com plained. Earl GREY said that Mr. Larkin was a friend of Dr. Needlam's, who he was sure did not approve of the language uttered at the meeting referred to. With re spect to these political unions, they knew from experience that they were the offspring of excitement and would disappear with the causes of excitement. Such unions might exist with perfect safety to good government, and at any rate no mere enactment could put them down, as had been proved over and over again ; so that they bad the odium of passing laws hardly consistent with the con- stitution without effect. Mr. Pitt's propositions were not adopted, and what took place in his time proved the truth of his propositions. Holding these sentiments, he could in answer to the Noble Marquess say that no measure of the kind he spoke of was in contem plation. He trusted much to the good sense of the people, and the dying away of these Unions, when this cause was destroyed. NORFOLK ASSIZES BILL. This Rill went through a Committee, and third reading on Monday next. EXCHEQUER COURT (SCOTLAND) BILL. On its being moved that the House roeolve itself into Committee on ;his Bill. The Duke of BUCCLEUGU opposed the motion, and leprecated the abolition of the Court. (LEFT SPEAKING.) IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS, JUNE 14. Mr. PALMER Wag introduced, and took the oaths and his seat as Member for the county of Berks. Sir GEORGE MURRAY also presented a petition from the proprietors of farming-stock in Perth, praying for the repeal of the stamp duties on fire insurances. Dr. LUSHINGTON presented a petition from the Grand Jury of Londonderry against the punishment of death in cases of forgery. Also, similar petitions from Portarlington, Cavan, Carlow, and several other places. Mr. LENNARD said that the feeling of the country was very strong on the subject, so much so that he, and he had no doubt other Hon. Members, had innumerable petitions to present on the subject ; but owing to the regulation which had lately been made as to the presenta tion of petitions, he had not been able to present them. Mr. WILKS bore testimony to the feeling that existed throughout the country on the subject. Dr. LUSHINGTON presented a petition from Maiden head in fa% our of the Factories' Bill. Also a petition from the inhabitant householders of St. Margaret's and St. John's, Westminster, in favour of Reform. Mr. BROWNLOIV presented petitions from different parishes in Armagh in favour of Reform and against tithes. Also a petition from the city of Armagh, praying for the introduction of Poor Laws into Ireland. Also a petition from the Conference Presbytery of Bangor in favour of the new plan of Education in Ireland. Lord MORPETH presented a petition from Dewsbury, lamenting that the Reform Bill for Ireland did not extend to the people of that country the benefits which the English Reform Bill gave to the people of England, and praying that the House would so amend the Irish Bill as that every inhabitant of that country might enjoy the same benefits as the people of England. Mr. O'CONNELL was sure that a petition like the present, coming from enlightened Englishmen, would be received with heartfelt gratitude by the people of Ireland. Mr. STRICKLAND congratulated the House on the alteration of the tone of the Hon. Member for Kerry from that which he took last night, and denied that the people of England were indifferent to the interests of Ire land. The wishes of the people of this country were to see Ireland prosperous and happy. After some observations from Mr. BLACKNEY, the peti tion was read. Dr. LUSHINGTON then presented petitions from Thirsk and Denby, for a modification of the penal code. After some observations from Mr. HUNT, the petitions were ordered to be printed. MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS. A message from the House of Lords brought up several Bills, to which their Lordships had agreed ; among which were—The Bristol Damages Compensation--the Edin. burgh Police, the Chorlton row Improvement, &c. Their Lordships also requested to be furnished by this House with a copy of the report and minutes of evidence relative to the Exchequer of Scotland Bill. The messengers having retired, and the question, that the request of the Lords be complied with, being car ried in the affirmative, they were again called in, and in. formed that the copy of the report of the minutes of evi dence would be furnished to their Lordships. Mr. O'CONNELL presented a petition from tke Mem bers of the National Political Union of the Working Classes, praying for the repeal of the taxes on newspapers. The petitioners stated, that having now the certainty of a Re formed Parliament, it was incumbent to repeal all taxes on knowledge, so that all information should be obtained as cheaply as possible. Mr. HUNT supported the prayer of the petition, and promised that when the Hon. Member (Mr. Bulwer) brought forward his motion upon this subject, he would give it his hearty support. Lord KILLEEN presented a petition from the land owners of a parish in the county of Meath, praying for an abolition of tithes or for a different appropriation of them. Mr. H. GRATTAN supported the prayer of the peti tion. Tithes were now at an end in Ireland. On Mon• day last there was to have been a meeting in Dublin 0 , 60,000 people belonging to the county of Wexford, upon the same subject. It was impossible now to collect tithe.. in Ireland, except at the point of the bayonet. He hoped the serious attention of English Gentlemen and of the Government would be speedily called to this subject. Lord KILLEEN confirmed the statement of the Hon. Member who had just sat down. From what he ha. learned lately he knew it would be impossible any longer to collect tithes, and, therefore, he hoped the attention co Government would be turned to the subject before the See- Mr. HUNT said the Bight Hon. Secretary fors Ireland had used the word extinction without qualification or ex planation, and so it had gone abroad ; it was not until af ierwards that an explanation was given. Mr. WELLESLEY did not think that any Govern ment would entertain an idea of taking away the tithes without considering and haring due regard for the rights of the clergy. He knew that most of the clergy wets anxious that tithes should be done away with, but they were equally anxious that their rights should be re spected.—(Hear). Mr. BLACKNEY said it was certainly unders!frod in Ireland that tithes were to be wholly extinct. Be de tiiled at some length the evils of the present system. The great miseries of Ireland were owing, first, to the cursed system of tithes, and then to the oppression of the peasantry. He was convinced there was an end t) tithes in that country. There was great danger in the coercive system. The people were disposed to keep the peace, but oppression had its limits. After some further observations from the Hun. Member, the petition was ordered to be printed. Mr. BEAUMONT wished to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman below (Mr. Lamb) the Under Secretary for the Home Department, whether Guvernment had re ceived authentic intelligence respecting the murder of a Magistrate in South Shields, under most atrocious circumstances, by two individuals belonging to some Trades' Union in that part of the country ? Mr. LAMB said Government had certinly received in formation of the melancholy nature alluded to by the Hon. Member ; and the proper steps had thereupon immediately been adopted. Mr. BEAUMONT did not wish to make any particu lar remarks on the present occasion, but he thought it was quite necessary some means should be adopted by that House, to relieve the country of the evils entailed on the industrious classes by means of these illegal combinations. Sir H. HARDINGE hoped the Hon. Member would take an early opportunity of bringing the subject before the House. He had seen several letters relative to the matter in question, and it was much to be regretted that a Magistrate, in the discharge of his public duty, should so atrociously have been murdered. Sir R. PEEL had always felt upon the suliject of those Unions, that the industrious classes were more interested i❑ their suppression than those in the higher cl isses. The latter had generally the means of escaping from their fury, but the industrious classes wee necessarily exposed to in sult and danger, if they did not belon?, to them. They lived by their labour, and they could not be allowed to take their articles to the most profitable market without being dictated to by these most illegal and hazardous com binations. It was, therefore, the duty of the Legislature to interpose, and afford some protection to those who did not wish to involve themselves in them. TAXES ON KNOWLEDGE. Mr. EDWARD LYTTON BULWER said, that in tieing to move certain resolutions for the repeal of the principal taxes on knowledge, he trusted th it his deep and conscientious conviction of the necessity of the measure he was about to propose, would be a sufficient excuse for undertaking a task which, if as important as he believed it to be, was equally above his abilities and his station in public life : those were not light or ordinary motives which, supporting as he did the present Administration, could induce him to bring forward a measure, not, he trusted, opposed, but certainly not sanctioned, by them, and which must necessarily be of a nature that it would setter suit their convenience to leave to their own time, and their own discretion to determine; but the motives by which he was actuated had been so long nursed, and were so strongly felt, that he conscientiously believed they left him no alternative; for when he looked round and saw the dangerous effects of those taxes in daily operation-- when he saw the numberless pernicious and visionary pub lications which were circulated in defiance of laws, which having lost the santion of public opinion (as his Majesty's Attorney-General so justly observed some time ago), had lost the power of being carried with prudence into effect. When he saw, that while the cheap dangerous publication was not checked, they suppressed the cheap reply—(Hear, hear, hear)—for those who would reply were honest and well-affected men, and men honest and well-affected would net break, while they lamented, that law which at present forbade the publication of cheap political periodicals.— (Hear.) When he looked round, and saw the results of that ignorance which the laws he desired to abolish fostered and encouraged, breaking forth not only in wild and impossible theories, bat, as the experience of a l'ew months since had taught them, in riot, and in cendiarism, and crime, he felt that in this Pat liament, and at this late period of the Session, he did but fulfil his duty in pointing ont the evils of the present system, and the manner in which he conceived they could be remedied— and indeed no time was unseasonable which related to national morals and to the waste of human life. He should proceed at once to call the attention of the House to certain facts, which would tend to show why it was our duty and our policy to diffuse cheap instruction amongst the people. and he sliould then show in what manner that instruction was, by the existing taxes, checked and obstructed. From an analysis carefully made of the cases of those per sons who were committed for acts of incendiar;sm, &c, in 1830, and the beginning of 1831, it appears that in Berkshire, of 13S prisoners, only 2b could write, and only :37 could read; at Abingdon, of 30 prisoners, 6 only could read and write; at Aylesbury, of 79 prisoners, only 30 could read and write; of 50 prisoners tried at Lewes, one individual only could read well.—(Hear, heat.) Now when they remembered that it was not sufficient to read, but that to derive any advantage from that ability, there should also be the habit of reading, how small a propor tion of those unfortunate men could be said to have pos sessed any positive instructiou. The same connexion be tween crime and ignorance existed in France. In 1830, it appeared that in the French Courts of Assize there were 6962 accused persons; out of this number 4519 persons were entirely ignorant of reading and writing, and only 129 persons, about a 57th part of the whole number, had received a superior education. It might be said, that as ignorance and poverty usually went together, it was in these cases the poverty that sinned, and the ignorance was only the accident that acccompanied the poverty ; but this notion he could contradict from his own expe rience; his habits had necessarily led him to see much of the condition of those men who followed literature as a profession, and he would say, that this city contained in nemerable instances among well-informed and well-edu cated men, of poverty as grievous, as utter, and certainly as bitterly felt, as any to be found among the labouring population of Kent or Norfolk.—(Hear, hear.) Yet how few among these men were driven into crime ! How rarely you find such men retaliating on society the suffer ings they endure.—(Cheers.) The greater part of of.. fences are offences against property; but these men, ac customed to inqiury, are not at least led away by those superficial and dangerous notions of the injustice of the livisions of property, which men who are both poor and ignorant so naturally conceive, and so frequently act upon; the knowledge which cannot, in all cases, prevent them from being poor, gives them at least the fortitude and the hope which enable them to be honest. If then, it was true, as the facts he had stated seemed to him sufficient to prove, that there was an inseparable connexion between crime and ignorance, it followed as a necessary conse quence that it was their duty to lay no shackles on the dif fusion of knowledge—that poverty and toil were sufficient checks in themselves—that the results of any checks which they, as legislators, voluntarily imposed, were to he traced, not only in every violent and dangerous theory instilled into the popular mind, but in every outrage the people ig norantly committed, and every sentence of punishment, transportation, and death, which these outrages obliged hens to impose. —(Hear, hear, hear.) It was then their luty to diffuse instruction in all its modes ; yet he thought it would be scarcely necessary for him to contend th, t Newspapers were among the readiest and most effectu 1 instruments of diffusing that instruction. In the first ~lace, they had this great advantage, they were the most mpular. A certain traveller said that he asked an American why it was so ra re i n A mer i ca to fi n d a man _ _ who could not read ? The American answered, " because my man who sees a newspaper always in his neighbour's iand, has a desire to see what pleases his neighbour, and a ashamed not to know what forms the current olsotwem t tt i u cs th o e f •Onyersation.—(clear, hear.) In fact, no man coo d have ived in the city without observing the extraordinary appe. ite for intelligence for passing events, which the life of „ l i a i geyih:seyis journal n o and it t d i t a t m h h e o a d n w gs i been n t daol all window, s a t :l ir :y:6 a a f i r t d o , t m h t e h t that you may note even a greater crowd round a newspaper office, with the alluring 0
