Session of Parliament. His Lordship accordingly moved the following Resolution :—" That all persons who will question any future return of Members to serve in Parlia ment, upon any allegation of bribery or corruption, and who shall in their petition specifically al'ege any payment of money, o'r other reward, to have been made by any Member, or on his account, or with his privity, since the time of such rettrit, in pursuance or in furtherance of such b!ibery or CAlquption, may question the same at any time with 28 dayi after the date of such payment; or if this House be not sitting at the expiration of the said 28 days, then within Ile days after the day when the House shall next meet." Sir C. WETHERELL admitted that the object pro posed by the Noble Lord was a fair one as the subject of an experiment, but he doubted its success. As the pro position was of so wide a nature, he should certainly enter more into it in the next Session. Mr. C. W. WYNN supported the Resolution, hut thought it did not go far enough. He wished its operation to extend over a longer period. He also suggested the propriety of waking those who petitioned responsible. Colonel SIBTHORPE objected to the terms of the Resolution. The word reward was very indefinite. Ac cording to the Resolution at present, a Member might have the charge of bribery hanging over him for the whole seven years the Parliament continued. Lord JOHN RUSSELL explained. He thought that some words might be added to make a man responsible in costs who presented a frivolous petition. With reference to the objection of the Hon. and Gallant Member, the olject of the resolution was to bring the question speedily to issue, and guard against bribery being successful, by withholding the reward• till the end of long perkds. The rt solution would oblige the candidate to defer the payment till the close of the Parliament. After a few words from Mr. H. GURNEY, which were not heard in the gallery, the resolution was agreed to. REFORM BILE-PAYMENT OF RATES. Colonel EVANS rose to call the attention of the Noble Lords opposite again to the subject of the scot and lot voters, who, as he had before stated, would be disfranchised by the operation of the Reforn Bill, if they bad not paid their rates. This subject was et such importance, and it was so imperfectly understood even in the metropolis, that he must solicit the attention of the Noble Lords to the subject. He had before stated, and he understood, that the rule of dis franchising people unless they had paid their rates would he extensive and injurious in its operation. All the people who had not paid their rates up to the 20th of Ju'y, would be disfranchised.—.(Lord. John Itutell said, if the rates had been demanded.) Tbat requires explanation. With respect to the resolution the Noble Lord had just moved, he would inform him that the two restrictive clauses of the Bill would operate very favourably for bribery. He knew from good authority, that there were two places, in one of which 1,1001., and in the other of which 9001., had been already advanced, to pay up the rates of the people. Something then should be done to counteract this, and make the Reform Bill understood. According to the papers on the table, the number of persons disfranchised in Westminster and other places would be very great. He had received some_ information from Lane ishire, which showed how the Bid would operate there. For example, he understood that in Manchester not above 750 persons bad paid their rates ; in Ashton 74, at Bury 42, at Old ham 42, at Bolton 84, at Blackburn 78, at Rochdale 66, at Salford 40, and in Warrington 38. That was rather an alarming result, and it would he so fatal that it would he enough to endanger the present Administration. He hoped that something iv, uld be done to remedy it. That a short sess4o of Parliament would be called to remedy it. All he knew of tx,, subject he had learned only within a few days, and it was not b e supposed that the great mass of the people engaged in,.heir pursuits could have learned it. That might account , their not I aving troubled them selves about it. Now ti., they were aware of it, they were much disappointed. Bill would positively con vert many large towns into dos_ hess ,, nghs. The Tories would not suffer from it, and he wonder that they oppo-ed any altera , ion. The next Parka.._ instead of being a reformed Parliament, would lie, he s not s av it offensively, a Tory Parliament, if the evils of tia were not remedied He thought this matter of grey imil ort ance, because the people who had lately obtained t form itself by their awn exertions, might have recoutße the sime means. In fact, he had beard that the dis • point/a:lent was so great that the people were again talking of not paying the taxes, and of running upon the Bank for gold. It would have the most disastrous effects, and might even, from tl.eir unpopularity, destroy the press!nt, sd — miisii . . .istrat ion. The lion. and Gallant Member concluded by moving an atiiiress to his Majesty, that be will be graciously pleated to prntogne the present, and convene another short'session of Parlianient, to take into consider ation the' unexpected di►francbisernent prodUced by certain restrictive tlaus,a Gr .- Ark for miles> 1 " `• the represents . !,) state 'lan. and st,te i.

P should be remembered that the peri.etixed by the Bill allowed three months to be in arrears ; and he could not think, according to the Custom of parishes, that it would be found - that so many people were disfranchised. The motion was then nevativeil without a division. EXPENSES OF THE REFORM BILL. Colonel SIBTHORPE moved for " A Return of the expenses incurred relative to the Reform of Parliament Bills precious to the passing of the same ;'distinuistring the sums already paid and remaining to be paid, as far as these can be ascertained, viz. for travelling and other ex penses of the commissioners and individuals employed in the necessary information with regard to boundaries and other returns; also, for stationery, printing, maps, plans, anti the various incidental matters connected with the said Acts." Lord ALTHORP seconded the motion, ob%erving that there should be no concealment on this subject, and that it was most desirable the people should understand the whole of the expenses incurred in carrying their wishes into effect. The Return was then ordered. The House then went into a Committee on the usual Sessional Addresses, and the several Resolutions being agreed to t - the Report was ordered . to be received to morrow. LORD CHANCELLOR'S SALARY. The report on the Lord Chancellor's Salary Bill being brought up, Mr. HU3IE again complained of the extravagance of the amount,. and observed that the whole of the sums received by Lord Lyndhurst (luring the time he was Chancellor, only averazed fourteen thousand some bun tlrells a year, while lie had at the same time to discharge all the onerous ar d oppressive duties of the Bankruptcy Court, from which his successor was now wholly relieved. The present Lord Chancellor had only half the duties of his predecessor to discharge, and yet he was to receive the same salary. He thought twelve thousand a year more than enough. Lord ALTHORP &fended the Government, and ob served that the amount of the salary was regulated by the recommendation of a Committee. The report was then received, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time t.i.morrunt. WEST INDIA ISLANDS' RELIEF BILL. On the motion of Lord ALTHORP, the House resolved itself into a Committee on the West India IslAnds' Re lief Bill. A desultory conversation took place on the various clauses, in the course of which, Mr. HUME ui ged the necessity of obtaining acme greater security for the re-payment of the money. to the public, than that of West India property. Mr. S. RICE observed that the object would be to obtain sufficient security. If sufficient security were nut tendered the money would not be lent. Mr. F. BUXTON was desirous to know whether, if the pledges of the borrowers were not redeemed, the slaves nn their mortgaged estates would become the property of Government ? Lou] ALTHORP replied in tl:e affirmative. Mr. F. BUXTON asked vbether, in that case, Go vernmont, as in former instances, would liberate thoSe slaves? Lord ALTHORP said tLdt he tr.s nut at present pre par.,d to insw.r that question.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. FiVNE and lir, DIXON objected to the preamble • . ' • of the Bill as uniktelligible, and wished to have the object specified for which the grant was made to the Crown Colonies. Lord ALTHORP . resisted any alteration to this effect, and a discussion ensued as to the propriety of a verbal amendment in the preamble, in which the above-named Hon. Members, Mr. WILKs, Mr. BURGE, and Colonel EVANS, took part. The preamble, as originally proposed, was then agreed to. The House resumed, and the Report was ordered to be brought up to-morrow. CHANCERY SINECURES BILL. The House went into Committee on this Bill, with an instruction to the Committee to consider the Resolution of the House, dated July 31, with respect to the Lord Chan cellor's Retiring Salary. Lord ALTHORP moved a clause, to the effect that the Lord Chancellor's retiring salary be 5,000/. a year. Mr. HU3IE wished to know why this salary should be tixed at 5,0001. a year? He saw nothing which should prevent it from being 6,0001. or 7,000/. as well as 5,000/. He thought, therefore, that the Noble Chancellor of the Exchequer was bound to bring forward the calculation which hmi led him to the result of 5,0001. a year as a fit ting reward for the Lord Chancellor's services and sacrifices. Lord ALT HORP stated, that Lord Brougham had given up offices to which the Lord Chancellor had the appoint ment, which were worth 24,0001. These, it was true, might not fall to hie patronage, but at least there was a place of 2 000/. a year to which he might have perma nently appointed his younger brother. Thi. he had given up, and therefore the public would lose nothing by the ad ditional 1,000/. to his retiring salary. Mr. HUME recalled to the Noble Lord opposite the pledges which the Government had given that they would abolish all sinecures ; yet they proposed to pay an addi tional sum in consequence of having abolished some sine cures in his Court. Surely that was not performing their pledge. - Lord ALTHORP was not aware that the Government had given any pledge not to give retiring allowances. The principle on which he should act was, that the salary and retiring allowance of any officer should be such as to secure to the public the filling of offices with men who were fit to discharge their duties. Patronage had always been granted to the Chancellor, in order to provide for his family, and when that patronage was taken away, as was now about to be done in the case of the present Chancellor, he put it to the House whether they thought they should be able to secure for his high office any man of first-rate eminence at the bar, unless in some measure they made up for the loss of those profits which had hitherto been invariably attached to the Chancellor's office. Mr. HUNT sail the Noble Lord's manner showed he felt the difficulty of defending this grant. He (Mr. Hunt) had lately been in a distant part of the country, and had been called to account for having voted 4,0001. a year fur the retiring allowance of their excellent Speaker, and for having said he would have voted for it had the sum been larger, but he felt himself quite competent to account to the satisfaction of the multitude who questioned him for what he had then done.—( Hear, hear.) He feared, if he voted for the present Grant, he should not be so competent to justify himself, especially a; this was to be an increased retiring allowance. He should move that the Grant be reduced to 4,0001. a year. Lord ALTHORP observed, that the Noble and Learned Lord had abolished no less than twelve sinecure offices which had hitherto been part of the patronage of the Chancellor, and that that circumstance ought to be taken into account as a justification for this increase in the retir ing allowance. Mr. C. WYNN thought the sum now proposed was only a fair compensation for the patronage which other Chancellors had enjoyed, and of which the present Chan cellor was deprived. They should recollect, too, that the Lord Chancellor had to sustain with becoming dignity the honours of the Peerage. That a Chancellor should ac cept the Peerage was hardly a matter of choice, for it was necessary for the due execution of many of the daties of his office that he should do so, and that circumstance ought also to be taken into account. He should suppoit the grant. Lord INGESTRIE in like manner defended the grant, and expressed his conviction of the great abilities possessed by the present Chancellor for the discharge of the duties g his office. . ri colonel SIBTHORPE thought 4,0001. a year enough l arg retiring allowance, but would gladly have voted a as h e - Ilary than he now had to the Noble Lord, so long M r . ftvgd in office :, tb . at o' cures in his Court v t. o b s e c 7fve the present Chan ce ll or a lit he tr ;.. a larger retiringlmwanee, the principle of compernia.,,, for sinecures woM be established, and then no sineetee could be abolishevwithout giving the holder a compensation. Mr. P. COU.rENAY defended the grant, and referred to the fact thatle Chancellor was almost necessarily com pelled to accq the peerage, and if he had had a son to whom that akinity was to have been transmitted, the House ml's` bass done more than they were called on to do at p,eten t. Commit divided, when there appeared.... For the gran, ....................... Against it -1 4Sority —sB • The House resumed, and the report was ordered to be received tO-morrollt. ` The Greek Convention Bili went through a Committee, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time La,' -morrow. STAGE COACH REGINATION'BILL. OrfAhe motion of Mr. S. RICE, the House went into a C°..i.itteei.on this Bill. On tiii.,elattse defining what was a stecoach, Mr. DIXON protested against imposing any duty what ever on steam pottier, and,ifioved that the wo r d s imposing .5 duty upon carriages-'prouelled by steam and travelling along common roads should be omitted. Mr. S. RICE opposed this amendment. lie was not called on to defend taxes on loeomotiorti for he admitted them to he evils in themselves, but they were in existence with respect to ecrtain carriages, and the Government could not now dispense with them. Under these circum stances, it was but fair to put steam carriages, now about to come into competition with carriages that were alt ady taxed, upon a footing with those carr i ages i n that respet. The pul,li e revenue, for want of this equality, had cuff-red a lass of 8,3844. upon the transport of goods by the Man chetster and Liverpool railway. They bad gained a sum of 1,297/. inclrectly from that cause, but upon the whole account they were losers to the amount of 7,0871.. The Public Revenue, therefore, and fair play to those already engaged in the busi ness o f carry i ng, called for Cr is tax, and the Treasury might be trusted not to allow it to press too heavily ou any infant speculation. Lord G. BENTICK and Mr. WILKS supported the Bill. After a protract4conversation, the Committee divided Ayes - 4S Noes Majority —I6. Clause agreed te. The other clauses were then agreed to after a short dis cussion. The preamble being also agreed to, the House resumed, and the Report was ordered to he received this PARTY PROCESSIONS (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. STANLEY having moved that the Report of the Coinnsittee on this Bill be brought up. Colonel SIBTHORPE moved that the Report be brought up on that day six months. The motion was not seconded. On the original question being put, Mr. SHAW said he should not continue a❑ unavail ing opposition to the Bill, nor should he have gone so far as he did last night but that he believed the Government was violating an implied agreement with the Members for Deland when they brought forward such a measure at such a late period of the session, and in tie abselace of nearly all those who were interested in its provisions. The report was then received, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time this day. BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS BILL. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, this Bill was read a third time. Mr. WEYLAND proposed a clause to be added by way of rider, declaring that every candidate who should p any part of the expense of registration of voters should be held guilty of bribery. Lord J. RUSSELL said the clause was merely applied to another description of bribery, and he was unwilling to clog the Bill with any further provisions to guard against its effects. Mr. HUME supported the clause. Mr. WYNN having said a few words in support of it, Mr. .COURTENAY said the question should be post poned. The Gallery was then cleared for a division; hut the clause was ultimately withdrawn, and the Bill passed. SONIERVILLE'S CASE. Sir J. HOBHOUSE laid on the table the papers relat ing to the inquiry into the case of the private Somerville. Mr. HUME wished the Right Hon. Baronet to state the result of the inquiry. Sir J. H 6 1--10 USE said his Majesty's opinion on the subject 'was, to be found in the papers laid on the table, and the Hon. ',Wernher might make himself acquainted with it by perusing them. The papers were then ordered to be printed. The 4 House then adjourned at half-pa s t two o'clock.. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (From the Times Private Correspondent.) PARIS, IVEDNESDAY, 4-O'CLOCK_P.M The grand financial question, which has produced so much agitation in the monied world of this capital for the last six weeks, has been at length settled. The loan i.f 150,000,000 francs was disposed of to-day. At 11 o'clock this morning, most of the capitalists, bankers, stock-job bers, stork-brokers, in Paris, as well as others, assembled at the hotel of the Minister of Finance. One of the public-rooms of the establishment had been fitted out for the occasion. In the upper part of it a platform, about a foot above the flior, had been raised, on which stood a long table covered with green cloth. At the inner side of the table was placed an arm-chair, to be occupied by the Minister, and on each side of it were two common chairs for his secretaries. In the remaining or public part of the room, seats had been provided for about 100 persons, which were taken imme {fate possession of after the open ing of the doors. A great number of persons had to stand. At 12 o'clock the folding doors on the platform side of the roem were thrown open, and Baron Louis made his appearance, attended by three or four persons. After bowing to the audience, the Minister briefly ad verted to the object for which the meeting had as sembled. One of the secretaries then read froth the Moniteur the Royal Ordinance authorizing the loan, and the Minister's conditions respecting the purchase of it. The Minister then again got up, and laid a sealed packet on the table, which, he said, contained the mininunz price he hail fixed upon for the loan. He an nounced that he was ready to receive proposals. M. Hot tinger, the hanker, immediately went up to the Minister, to whom he de'iveied a sealed packet containing an offer in the name of several capitalists, represented by himself, Mr. Rothschild, and Mr. Davilliers. No other bidders having come forward at the invitation of Baron Louis, the Mi nister proceeded to open M. Hottinger's packet. It con tained two letters, both of them signed by the three gen tlemen named above,—the one being a declaration of per fect readiness to comply with all the requisite conditions, and the other making an offer of 98f. 50c., or 98i- per cent., for the loan. After reading these letters aloud, the Minister declared the loan to be adjudged to the association represented by Messrs. Hottinger, Rothschild, and Da villiers. At the opening of the Bourse to-day, at half-past 1, the new loan was quoted at 1001. 25c. But as the rate at which it had been taken was much lower than had been generally anticipated yesterday and the day before, the other domestic securities began to fall back to their former level, and the price of the new loan receded in consequence soon after. The news from Portugal received through the London Papers was considered highly unfavourable, and added its influence in depressing the money-market. Don Pedro's friends begin to despair. 'We have accounts from Lisbon of the 25th, through the Madrid Gazette of the 31st, which, as might be expected, represent the state of affairs as being entirely in favour of Miguel. Though at any other time no one would have noticed the Madrid Ga zette's version of the state of things in Portugal, at this moment it seemed to be taken as a confirmation of the news through London. Z. (Frum Galignani's Messenger of Wednesday.) A letter from Compiegne, dated Tuesday evening, at 11 o'clock, says," The King of the Belgians arrived here at a quarter past 4, in an open carriage, with the Dukes of Orleans and Nemours, followed by the Dukes de Choi seul and de Halle, Messrs. Van de Weyer and Le Hon, the Grand Marshal of his Majesty's Palace ; Count d'Aer chot, General D'Hane de Steenhuysen, General de Chaste ler, Grand Equerry ; Colonel Peisse, his Aide-de-Camp ; M. Van Praet, his private secretary, and Dr. Lebeau, his physician. At the entrance of Compiegne, a trium phal arch, ornamented with the united flags of France and Belgium, was erected, bearing the following inscrip tions :—" La 'Ville de Cotnpiegne au Roi des Beiges ! A l'heureuse Alliance de la France et de la Belgique !" Under this arch the Sub-Prefect of the Arrondissement and the M.iyor of Compiegne received King Leopold, the latter delivering a congratulatory address, to which his Majesty replied in the most obliging terms. At a quarter before 5 his Belgian Majesty entered the Court of the Palace, upon which the King of the French, sur. rounded by his aides-de-camp and all the officers of his household, cane to the foot of the steps, received him as 1 - - ^,lighteil from his carriage,. and embra ce d hi m most affec t ...„ 4 „,tr,-,...,, , s itt s 7 a ascended tne grann stair case,i 'the recepti on c h am b er, w h ere K i ng ". greeted by Madame Adelaide, accompanied by i.;.::.1--,lncesfren Mary and Clententina. Thence they pro teeded to the 'private drawing-room, where they were ex pected by the Queen and the Princess Louisa. At 7 o'clock the Royal party mat down to a grand dinner in the Galerie de Diane." • The Nuremberg Correspondent of the 3d inst. states that a new protocol is expected soon to be issued by the Frankfort Diet, communicating some satisfactory explana tions relative to the protocol of the 28th June. The Courrier du Bas Rhin states, upon the authority of a letter of the 2d inst. from Baden, that " hopes are still entertained that the Grand Duke will shortly publish a protest against th e ac t o f th e Di et, w hi ch suspends toe liberty of the press in his states, and will thereby prove Is'. anxiety to fulfil the obligations he has contracted 'maids his people." The Aupshurg Gazette of the 4th instant has a letter born Basle of the 28th ult. stating that the experiment made by the Rhenish -Prussian Company for the navigation of the Rhine by steam-vessels, to extend the navigation to Basle, has proved snecesstul. Hitherto it was thought that the water from Reid to Basle was too shallow for chat purpose; a steam-vessel, however, has just suc ceeded in ac omplishing the desired object. Thus, when the system is completely organized, steam-vessels from Switzerland, down stae Rhine, to London, will effect their passage in 72 hours. The Gazette quotes Metal lics, 5 per Cents. at Vienna, in the 30th of July, Extract of a letter from hilogna, dated July 28 This morning a part of the Arstrian regiment of Ginlay quitted Bologna, and marched towards Ferrara, whither it will be followed by the rest b.-morrow.

Two Swiss officers of rank have set out from Lau sanne for Milan, on a secret mi,sion; they are, it is said, directed to watch the movements of the Austrian troops in Lombardy. Extract of a letter of the 28th nit, from Venice : " Preparations for armaments of every description are making on the coast of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom on a very extensive scale. They appear to have been prin cipally occasioned by the presence of the french at An. cone. Some of the measures, however, look towards the future; among these we may reckon a notice of the com mander of the marine at Venice, by which the inha.bi ta:rts of the provinces bordering on the Adriatc are in formed, that the administration of the navy wit buy up all the oak that can be cut in the forests of Istria and Dalmatia."

JAMES'S last production, Henry Masterton, or the Ad ventures of a Young Cavalier, is, with Mr. CoorEa's lkidentnauer, now dividing public attention. The pre sent story, by the author of Darnley, is incomparably his best. Surprises, which the reader never forestalls—ani mated descriptions of battles and of political intrigues— characters in many strange aspects, such as may be sup posed to have arisen during the ferment of the civil wars, which ended in the trial and execution of the first CHARLES, and the protectorship of CILOMWELL,-and mysterious in cidents, abound thioughout the work; while to these, the best ingredients of romance, are added a skilful knowledge of human nature, and an imagination ever alive to what ever /here is of beauty or of grandeur in the external world. EXTRAORDINAY WHIsPERING GALLERY. —A naval officer who travelled through Sicily in the year 1824, gives an account of a pow er f u l w hi spering place in the cathedral of Girgenti, where the slightest whisper is carried with perfect distinctness through a distance of 250 feet, from the great western door to the cornice behind the high altar. By an unfortunate coincidence the focus of one of the refl2cting surfaces was chosen for the place of the confessional, and wi:en this was accidentally dis covered, the lovers of secrets resorted to th e other focus, and thus b e cam e acquainted with confessions of the gravest import. This divulgence of scandal continued for a con siderable time, till the eager curiosity of one of th e dill et . tanti was punish e d, by hearing his wife's avowal of her own infidelity. This. ciicumsrance gave publicity to the whisi;ering peculiarity of the cathedral, and the conies sinaial was removed to a place of greater secrecy. Sir D. Brewster on Notural.

It appears from a conversation which took place in the House of Commons last night, that the present Parliament will be dissolved, and the new one meet before the end of the year. Lord ALTHORP expressed himself decidedly ad verse to the re-assembling of the present Parlia ment, " though of course," his Lordship added, " he could not pledge himself to what subse quent events, as yet unforeseen, might require." By the " subsequent events," we suppose Lord ALTHORP alludes to the difficulties which beset every step of our foreign policy, and which may shortly render it imperative on England to make some vigorous and decisive demonstration. So long as the agitation excited by the Frankfort edicts is kept alive throughout the continent, so long will it be necessary for Ministers to have their every faculty on the stretch, and a Parlia ment within call, as it were, and prepared to grapple with whatever emergencies may arise. His Lordship, we suspect, alluded rather to this probable•enough contingency, than to any im pediments that might grow out of the practical working of the Reform Bill. The Bribery at Elections Bill was read a third time and passed. Dutch and German Papers have been received this morning. The latter contain a fresh proof of the vindictive, unrelenting spirit which the " mis creant" NICHOLAS continues to entertain to wards Poland and every thing Polish.

YOUNG v. THORNTON, and WINCHESTER e. YOUNG. Sir E. SUDDEN, Mr. JEMMETT and Mr. BACON ap peared as Counsel for Mr. Young, the plaintiff in the ori ginal, and the defendant in the cross cause. Mr. PEP vs, Mr. KINDERSLEV, and Mr. PALEY were Counsel on the other side. Mr. BACON opened the bill and pleadings of the origi nal cause. Mr. PALEY opened the answer to this cause, and the pleadings of the cross bill. Mr. JEMMETT opened the answer of his client to the cross suit. Sir E. SUDDEN, in rising to address the Court on be half of his client, stated, that the case came before hie Lordship by an original bill and a cross suit. The Counsel had agreed that both suits should come on together, there fore there would be no difficulty in opening the whole case. The original bill prayed that the Court would decree a dissolution of the partnership between the plaintiff and Mr. Grant, order the newspaper stock, &c. to be sold, the ac counts to he taken, and declare the plaintiff's right of pre emption established. The prayerof the cross suit only differed in this, that the declaration of the Court might be, that the plaintiff had no right of pre-emption. The point of liw that arose upon the question of pre-emption depended en tirely upon the provision of the partnership articles inde pendently of all conduct. The partnership articles recited the partnership between the parties, and that the plaintiff was to have one-fourth of The Sun newspaper for the sum therein mentioned. The particulars have been frequently before the public, and it would be unnecessary to be mi nute upon details in this part. The nominal value put upon The Sun about the period at which the partner ship commenced was 15,0001. The clause in the ar ticles relating to the right of pre-emption was this : " If any partner for the time being shall become bankrupt, or take the benefit of any Insolvent Act, the other partner or partners shall have the power of dissolving the partnership, and the right of taking the share or shares of the said bankrupt or insolvent partner at a valuation, made or to be made as herein provided for, or, if necessary, to be made as shall be directed upon reference." The case then for the consideration of the Court had arisen upon the bankruptcy of Mr. Grant, which gave to Mr. Young the right of putting an end to the partnership, and entitled Lim, as he conceived, to the right of pre-emption. Certain witnesses had been examined in the cause, in order to show what the proceedings had been since the bank ruptcy of Mr. Grant. Originally, the plaintiff's bill was filed, praying that it might be declared he had not only a right of pre-emption, but a right to purchase, in conse quence of certai❑ negotiations which had taken place. In the first instance Mr. Young had proposed to give a cer tain sum of money for Mr. Grant's share in the paper, and finally a❑ arrangement, as the plaintiff alleged, had been made by the assignees to sell to the plaintiff. The plain tiff had gone into no evidence, but the defendants had ; and it appeared by the testimony of Mr. Briggs himself, the solicitor on the other side, that the agreement had been closed with Mr. Young ; that a draft of it had been sent to Mr. Young for his approval ; that it bad been returned approved of; that it had been engrossed on proper stamps, and that a subse quent meeting had actually been appointed for the parties to complete the agreement at. On the other side it was alleged that all this had proceeded upon the condition, that if, between the period of Mr. Young making his offer and the completion of the agreement, no one came forward to offer more for Mr. Grant's shares, Mr. Young was to have them at the sum stipulated for. Mr. Young having attended the meeting alone at which he made his offer, which according to his understanding was absolutely agreed to, it was thought better to abandon that point than to proceed to litigate it; consequently notice had been given to the other side that it was not intended to be in sisted upon. The question then simply was upon Mr. Young's right under the clause of pre-emption. The LORD CHANCELLOR supposed, as the other side did not seem to dissent from this statement, that he might take that to be the naked question. Sir E. SUDDEN believed he was accurate in saying that that was the only and simple question. The offers which Mr. Young had made had been all without prejudice to his right of pre-emption. It was easy to be understood, why the defendants insisted that the plaintiff was not en titled to his right of pre-emption. According to the terms of the deed, nobody could sincerely (in the Learned Coun sel's opinion) doubt the plaintiff's right of pre-emption. T ....vidpd for hod occurred, namely, the bank ruptcy of Mr. Grant, which gave the right to she plaintiff to call for the dissolution of the partnership, and to insist on his right of pre-emption. The bill had been filed, insisting on those two things, and the only inquiry was, whether there was anything in the terms of the instru ment, to prevent the Court from granting the prayer of the plaintiff's bill. Supposing there had been a commo❑ contract entered into between A and B, A having agreed to sell to B, at a sum to be fixed upon by arbitrators to be appointed, no doubt that would have been an incomplete contract, and the Court would not have decreed the execution of it; but even that law was not without its limits, because if the valuation to be taken was to be of something in the shape of an ad junct to the property sold, such as timber upon an estate or fixtures in a house,—if it appeared to the Court that execution was to be given to the principal subject of sale, then it would not take the trouble of inquiring who the arbitrators were to be, but, assuming jurisdiction in the case, it would refer it to one of its own Masters tTtt t foohh o r:iii p inissbg u dtai t iinivi a keaor p rtsteou r o pntu p oto,: e iatgn r ahoapp y ttnpa a h valuation on such adjunct. This was the rule of the Court. The cases that had arisen would be incompletef y y t e t ri ,nb t hu butet thepresent o purchase uieaartgeorhfea c es nmes was case. It ntyot teasl thb t oeytf hpetorhoncipeet question. u lels e pyt t o t r b h tn another, partner, agree ments which the Court would execute, and where it was pointed out that the execution should take place in a particular way. Supposing the accounts had been directed by the partnership articles to have been taken by arbitration, it was clear that a bill might have been filed to have had the accounts taken by the Master, without re sorting to the arbitration clause at all. Then was it ne cessary to execute the trusts of the partnership deed ? It was, and the Court would execute them—the Court would dissolve the partnership for that defendant in the Court, and nobody could dissolve it but the Court, where the parties differed. This was one of those authorities of the Court which no party could denude himself of the benefit of. The Court had the power to dissolve the partnership, and no partner could come and say it should not do it. There could be no doubt that the Court would in this instance dissolve the partnership, and direct the accounts to be taken ; and any stipulatio❑ in the partnership deed respecting the sale of the property would have to be attended to in taking the accounts. Such stipulation would really only have to be considered as an item in the winding-up of the affairs, and of the taking the accounts, because the share of the bankrupt in this newspaper would, undoubtedly, have been sold somewhere or other, somehow or other, in or out of the bankruptcy, either by force of the decree of this Court, or by the order of the Commissioners. The Loan CHANCELLOR said, he was sorry to inter rupt Sir Edward's argument, but, as lie was obliged to go to attend a Commission in the House of Lords, the re mainder of the case would have to stand adjourned til to-morrow.

Here it was essential to the winding-up of the partnership affairs, that the property should be sold, the value ascertained, and the value taken. Nobody could take the benefit of the part nership without submitting to the provisions 01 the partnership deed, and in the present instance, the case had arisen under the partnership deed, which gave Mr. Young purchase of Mr. Grant's a ll t . . e having ift declaration p t l o t a o in pa t l i show that 'Mr. t t h h e e refore, of several terms of s th ha e r r e tg . ht r o r f his pr ,, e , - a e s m o p ti t iv ion on i e n , an entir e c o ntract to be executed, the execution of which hr n ee oo l i tt n hh sl i v en u r a g i ss 1 8 1 e id en e t appeared j ( l t r t l i e h s t e i right of p r e-e m p t i o n , the Court would not hesitate to decree.

The Learned Counsel did not deem neces saryietregtsi,.aesn to go through the cases, because they were well it would rather be for him to answer them than otherwise. This being so, so much ba k yn n y o known to j t eo o etti t ii l o : n e r C st o ,: u d r e t ,b ; e a ridin offered,th the of the cross-suit as prayed that no declaration might be made in favour of Mr. Young, upon the clause of pre emption, would have to be dismissed, and the deer•e would have to be (or a sale of the shares of Mr. Grant in the usual and ordinary way, Mr. Young to have the op portunity of purchasing them, the accounts to be taken, the debts to be paid, and the surplus to be properly applied. Mr. JEMMETT considered the question to be reduced to so very narrow a compass as to render it necessary for him to make only a few observations. The only question was whether or not, under this partnership deed, Mr. Young was entitled to a right of pre-emption in rest ect of the shares which bad belonged to Mr. Grant. To him it appeared, the only way in which this question could be met by the other side, would be by showing up!' the evidence that there had been some waiver on the part of Mr. Young of the right of pre-emption, or that the parties had so dealt with the partnership deed, that it was impossible for Mr. Young now to come into Court and ask his Lordship to act on the pre-emption clause. It was only necessary to refer to a few dates in order to ascertain that there had been no such waiver on the part of Mr. Young. The partnership deed was entered into on the 25th of June, 1828. At that time Mr. Young WAS entitled to 8 shares out of the 32 in The Sun, in consideration of services he had performed, and which were to be performed, estimated at the value of 1,9001. and a fraction, exclusive of the debts due by the concern prior to that date. Mr. Young was likewise to be continued the sole editor and manager of the paper ; therefore it was clear there were no other accounts to be taken than the accounts respecting the shares of Mr. Grant ; Mr. Young being clearly entitled still to haw e the management of the paper. In February, 1829, Mr. Grant went abroad, and did ❑ot return till October, 1830. On the 4th of November in the same year, he was made a bank rupt. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Just mention again the date of Mr. Grant's going abroad. Mr. JEMMETT repeated it. Mr. Young hail solely con ducted the paper to the period at which Mr. Grant became a bankrupt. Immediately upon Mr. Grant's be coming a bankrupt (in January, 1831), Mr. Young offered to become the purchaser of his (Mr. Grant's) shares, claiming his right of p re - empt i on un d er t h ose shares. In consequence of Mr. Young's offer, meetings of the creditors were called ; the first took place on the 25th of February, 1831, and another took place on the 17th of March, in the saute year. At the latter meeting the offers that had been made at the former meeting were withdrawn, and an agreement was entered into between Mr. Young and the assignees that Mr.Youngshould become the purchaser at a given sum. This date was material, because on the 17th of March it would be found there was an end to all competition, and that it was agreed Mr. Young was to be the purchaser. Accordingly, through the agency of the assignees, a deed of assignment of the property to Mr. Young was prepared—it was engrossed, and an appoint ment was made for Mr. Young to meet the assignees on the 19th of March, that the agreement might then be privately executed. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Mr. Pepys, as you are on the other side, do you mean to rely on the waiver? Mr. PEPYs-Yes, my Lord, it is part of our case. Mr. JEMMETT had anticipated, from the terms of the answer, and the manner in which the other side had taken their evidence, that this point might be raised. The LORD CHANCELLOR—I merely asked the question that you might not be unnecessarily arguing the point, as I thought that probably they did not mean to rely on that. Mr. JEMMETT said that when Mr. Young went on the 15th of 'March to Mr. Thornton's counting-house—Mr. Thornton being one of the assignees, and one who had taken a very active part in the matter throughout, —Mr. Thornton contended that the agreement was not a final agreement—that it was a:conditional agreement depending upon whether in the interim any better offer were made, and that a better offer having been made, Mr. Young was not entitled to the purchase. Mr. Young did not, so un'erstand the nature of the contract. The moment the bankruptcy occurred Mr. Young made his offer, and he conceived having agreed to the sum fixed upon by the as signees, that he was absolutely to become the purchaser, and that the thing was to be comple , ed when he went on 19th to Mr. Thornton's counting-house. However, other persons were there on that occasion. The shares were put up again for sale, and Mr. Young said, rather than lose them altogether, he would give the sum even then mentioned, but that he made the offer in furtherance of his right of pre-emption. The Court would see, by the evidence, that Mr. Briggs, the solicitor ou the other side, expressly stated that Mr. Young, on every occasion, had distinctly said he made his offers in furtherance of his claim under the clause of pre-emption. Mr. PALEY observed, that the evidence was, that Mr. Young had made his offer, protesting against the conduct of the parties. Mr. JE3II,LETT considered that that fully bore out his statement. Mr. Young conceived there was some thing in the shape of a conspiracy going on against him, by the putting up of the property for sale at the nominal values, at which, from time to time, it was put up. At the latter end of the meeting on the 19th, Mr. Young's solicitor entered the room, and ad vised his client not to take any part in what was going on—that there was something unfair in the proceedings, and that he ought to insist upon his right of pre-emption, and there let the matter rest. Mr. Young agreed to this. Heclaimed his right of pre-emption, and on the 26th March filed his bill for the purpose of having that right established. If, therefore, the Learned Gentlemen on the other side me int to contend for any waiver, it was cleir that that waiver could only be alleged to have taken place at the meeting of the 15th, because at the meeting on the 17th there was no competition. On the 17th the claim of Mr. Young was recognized ;it was allowed he had his right of pre-emption, and a certain sum was fixed at which to sell his, the bankrupt's, shares. There would be an absurdity in the argument to say that a person was ousted of his right of preemption, when at the very moment he was claiming that right, and when in furtherance of that right he had made a certain offer. Mr. Young never intended to waive his right of pre-emption,and all that he ever did, in his opi nion, he did in furtherance of that claim. This original bill, then, having been filed en the 26th of March, the cross suit was filed in May in the same year, and the plaintiffs in the cross suit moved in December for a re ceiver and manager, which motion was dismissed. On the 6th of December Mr. Grant obtained his certificate, and very shortly afterwards be started a paper in opposition to The Sun called The True Sun. Supposing there was no waiver whatever, the next question would be, whether there was any thing in the deed of partnership with regard to the other provisions contained therein, which could operate so as to prevent the Court from establishing the right of Fe-emption. By the deed there were to be certain monthly and annual meetings, at which the accounts were to be taken, and the value of the paper rated. If the partners disagreed upon any part, the matters in dispute were to be referred to some person appointed by the Attorney and Solicitor-Generals. These provisions, however, had never been acted upon, anal upon the authority of " Jackson v. Sedgwick," Ist Swanston, page 460, the Learned Counsel contended, that as they had never been acted upon, the par:nership deed was to be read as it contained no provisions at all. i That being so, and supp os i ng th e C ourt to be of opinion usual Mr. Young was e ntitl e d t o hi s r i g h t o f pre-emption under the contract, then of c ou rse th e d ec l arat i on of t h e C o urt have to b e , t o e st a bli s h t h e r i g h t o f pre - em ption, to way, refer the taking Air. of Youngth eacc s t i i i t: l n ul t d s tobe theatlibert y Maste r nto purchase upon paving the full value of t h e property. I t l e v r o e- u I dbe should b e t t better so mu c h o pp os i t i on to t his course of proceeding, i w f ' t " he Learned Gentlemen G e n t h e other side app eare d only for the credit ors .

T manner , or that he bad not condu c t e d i t in a certain degree very beneficially for the bankrupt partner and his creditors. Therefore it would he absu r d to contend that the whole this Paper in an exceedi ng l y proper , and creditable duhee t e other h e r ide d i d not say that M r. Young had not con stock in trade should b e put up and sold without reference to Mr. Young, and pr o b a bl y to a person to be forced in upon Mr. Young, with whom Sir. Young c ou ld no t a ct either in politi ca l op i nions or otherwise. It seemed to the Learned Coun se l t h at if the creditors were to be asked hoar this cause s h ou l d b e conducted, usual man ner, b y having it sent into the Master's office to ascertain th e va l ue, and that Mr. Young should be permittedto becom e t h e purchaser of Mr. Grant's shares, because it Youngwas quit e certa i n Mr. Young would be inclined to give more for th em t h an any oth e r person could be found to give, with w h om it was not likely Mr. Young could act amicably.

The value of the pro perty could not be deteriorated by the mode of proceed ing now proposed. The Master wonld take care to fix a proper value upon it. - The LORD .CHANCELLOR—What was the last moti that was made in this case, because I remember the case was before me in another shape? Mr. KINDERSLEY—We made an application, my Lord, for a receiver and manager some time ago. Mr. JEMMETT said it was an application made on the other side for a receiver and manager, and for an order to discharge Mr. Young from the management of the papera
