herself assayed the ascent, and was told by the good genii at the foot of the mountain, that if she meant to achieve the summit, she must go straight forward, and neither turn te the right hand nor the left. If the Noble Lord followed t h i s ex ample, and listened to suggestions neither from thatside nor the other, he would not have to return to the old system of hanging or imprisonment.—(Cheers.) Mr. DISRAELI at the commencement of his address,s the spoke in so low a tone, that many of his words were inau dibl e in gallery, bat proceeded to say, that in the difficult circumstances in which he had been placed he was sure they would not quarrel with him for thinking that the combination of events has un expectedly put them into their present position. No one could deny that that was a position attained by no factious endeavours of their own, and that it was surrounded by so many obstacles, that no man of common honour, or of generous spirit, would endeavour to impede their progress by any needless opposition. The only thought which his Noble Friend, the Noble Lord, the present leader of the opposition, with those who acted with him, entertained was, that the measure now proposed should have been taken at an earlier period. The question, there fore, before the House was, not whether thew measures were in themselves desirable, but whether the Government could have shown more discretion, prudence, and enterprise, and whether these measures should not have been sooner proposed to the House. He would recall to the recollection of Hon. Members the conduct of the great Convervative opposition who had sat on those (the Opposition) benches during the long period when they had been absent from power. During the ten years not a phrase had been expressed, not a sentence had been uttered which had not been duly weighed long before it was delivered. He would not say anything of the hypocrisy, as he might style it, or of the factious conduct which had ob tained the support of some of the present supporters of the Government, and he could not sufficiently admire that entire absence of party feeling which characterised the speech of the Noble Lord who had proposed the measure now under the con sideration of the House. That speech had about it that which became the conduct of a statesman—( Hear, bear)—and had it not been for the injudicious observations em bodied in the remarks of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he firmly believed that no discussion whdtever would have arisen, and that no cavil whatever would have been made upon the accession of the present Government to power, but that their proceedi ngs wou ld have been most acceptable to the whole public of the United Kingdom. But whatever the ob jections might be to the policy of the Noble Lord, no charge could be brought against the prudence of the designs and the disinterestedness of the views of those by whom he was as sisted ; nor would any objection be offered upon the part of his Hon. Friend, or those acting with him in the present exi gency. The Honourable Member for Bath had inter posed in this debate a tirade on the violent ssesticulation and the modulation of voice with which his Hon. Friend had stated his opinions, The only desire which his Noble Friend had expressed was, that these measures had not been proposed at an earlier period, so that they might not have interfered with the commercial transactions of the country. The Hon. Member for Lancashire had iatimated a doubt as to the pru dence of the course which was now pursued, and had expressed a belief that a total abrogation of the navigation laws would have been better than a temporary suspension of their in fluence. He would merely put it to the House, whether, if this temporary suspension bad occurred, the scarcity at Antioch and pressure at Bombay, would not have been obviated. The Hon. and Learned Member for Bath, who seemed so critical on the modulation of the voice or the acting of others, and who himself exhibited on every occasion training and me thod both in mind and voice ; the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath, so classical in his concepting, so happy in his ex pressions, so temperate in all that he conceived, so gentle manlike in all that he uttered, whose criticising of a secretary of state affirmed that he wanted aptitude of expression, who censured a leader of the Opposition because his voice did not meet or agree with his own musical gammut ; the Honourable and Learned Member for Bath, who had always evincad an anxious impatience, particularly in the present session, to lose no opportunity of expressing his opinion as if he felt that there was some impending dissolution near at hand which rendered it necessarp that not another moment should be lost in astonishing the empire with the brilliancy of his sarcasm, the power of his criticisms, or the force of his argumentative ingenuity, who had this session indirectly informed them that he was the critic, par excellence, of the House, and who never lest an occasion for giving them some specimens of his criti cal ability, had that night replied to the epilogue of his Noble Friend by a quotation from the " Arabian Nights." The point of his Noble Friend might not have pleased the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath; but then the test he applied to the point of his Noble Friend possessed no point at all. It was not thalthe epilogue of his Noble Friend did not contain any. A great authority had told them that a bad author made a good critic. That might be a good and excellent rule as applied to literature, but whether it applied with the same force to poli tics he was at present at a loss to decide. At all events, it was allowed that a bad prophet made a good political critic, while a little philosopher might ultimately turn into a monarchical politician. Perhaps the one saying was a corruption of the other. When the Hon. and Learned Member for Bath again indulged them with an exhibition of his critical powers, it would be well for him to recollect that ethers might be critics as well as those who were the objects of his sarcasm, and when the modulation of the voice, the exquisite temper of the character, the sweetness of the silvery tones, or the softness of manner, were admitted to be legiti. mate subjects of parliamentary discussion, the Hon. and Learned Gentleman opened up a field of animadversion upon himself which he for one had no wish to pursue, and which he trusted, for the decorum of their debates, the Hon. and Learned Gentleman would not in future prosecute.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. B. ESCOT had listened with great pleasure to the second speech of the Noble Lord, because in that speech he did not pretend to say that the measures he now proposed were the best that could possibly be proposed, nor did he ven ture to say that those measures ought not to have been brought earlier before the Legislature, but he did say, truly, that the measures he proposed were the only measures which, under ex isting circumstances, he could possibly carry out.—(Hear.) Be regretted exceedingly that the measures had not been earlier proposed, but still he was bound to admit, that no others could be brought forward now. He had heard the _Noble Lord the Member for Lynn and others protest against Shese measures some short time back, because they were public de. anions, but, strange to say. the Noble Lord now supported them on the self-same ground, namely, that they were public delusions. He did not understand this mode of reasoning, nor did he understand what was meant by the speech of the Hon. Member for Huntingdon. That Hon. Member had said that he did not approve of the measures because they would benefit the consumer. The Hon. Member, however, admitted that the people were in distress, and urged upon the _House to do something to alleviate it. What was this but ad ranting measures for the benefit of the consumers. The Noble Lord (Lord John Russell) had been blamed for not in trodueing those measures earlier, but as the famine had pro gressea' towards the close of last:session, he thought the House and not the Government were to blame for the delay. He had beard an Honourable Gentleman (late Chancellor of the Exchequer and Member for Cambridge), make the asser tion he had done. Was he right in thinking that that Hon. Gentleman had said that the ports ought to have been opened in August last? Why, that Hon. Gentleman was one of the great obstacles to opening the ports. In November, 1845, his Noble Friend the First Lord of the Treasury was ready to open the ports, and he had written a letter, for which he mold never be -too much commended, to that effect.—( Hear, hear.) He thought that that Noble Lord (J. Russell) had underrated his powers when he supposed that be would not be able to ,carry out the principles which he then propounded, and he 'thought, that if he had attempted to do so, he would have t oomseeded.—(Hear, hear.) But they were all aware, that w hen it was desired to ad o pt th e policy of the Noble Lord, and diet when the Hon. Member for Tamworth wanted to etrr y the same into effect, and the Noble Lord (J. Russell) was ready_ to give him his assista nce by hi s influence and support, the Hon. Gentleman, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and his party, were ready to oppose them on every point. —( H ear, hear, from the Ministerial benches.) But now, when the Hon. Gentleman found that there was a pressure on the Go vernment, and that there was more business on their hands ;than they could conveniently transact, it was unjust to accuse 'them of delay. He agreed with his Hon. Friend the Member fps- Manchester that they should forget what was passed. As t o the other matters introduced into the discussion, h e would dismiss them altogether. The Noble Lord (Russell) had nciv told them that he was fully prepared to do all that Parliament would allow him. Coming to another part of the que s ti on , he must say that he thought there had been too little- said about the sufferings of the people of this country. Did not the Honourable Member for Lynn know tha t it was impossible to send a bushel of corn to Irelancil without depriving the people of this country of , exactly the same amount of corn ? It was the greatest blurs der in the world to suppose that the people of this eountry had ufficient corn. He believed that many of the 'Western parts of England were dependent upon potatoes for support. Now, three-thirds of that species of food had been destroyed. And notwithstanding this, the Noble Lord would enact the part of a great forestaller himself, buy corn to a large amount, and send it out of the country to Ireland. All their endeavours had been to procure more corn, and their policy recommended by the Noble Lord would render nugatory all their endeavours. Under these circumstances he would support the motion. Lerd GEORGE BENTINCK hoped that there was no spirit of vituperation in any part of the speech he had addressed to the Hoisse, for such was far from his intention.—( Hear. ) He stated that if he had had his way, he would have prevented the late Government from carrying their measure on the corn law, and the sxensequence would have been that when wheat was 455. a qumshor, the grain would have remained in bond said an opportunity would thus be afforded Government of Using a large qua.ntity. And he also stated, that if this grain had been purchased and sent to Ireland, it would have pre vented all the calasniSies that had occurred there. He denied, as had been stated by an Honourable Gentleman, that he had accused her Majesty's Government of murder. Alf he had said was that her Majesty's Government had come into office through the instrumentality of his ( Lord George Bentinck's) party, and that he believed that the present state of circumstances was induced by the late measure, as td that the present Government would not be able to get rid of their meal and other provisions. He believed that he had mow exonerated himself from the charge that had been made up tui him.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. ESCO:r T offered a few words in explanation. Lord J. R Ut!Lt 3 ELL quite Ike in the s t a t ement of his Hon. Friend (11 fr. Escott). He agreed also in the opinion of the Noble Lord ; but he confessed that he was rather surprised at the position b e had assumed, having so many commercial men attached to his party. He was rather surprised at his Noble Friend's dc mtrines, because he thought he was making Progress in coins aercial knowledge. —( Hear, and laughter). and that partied any after the panegyric he had passed on certain Hon. Mem hers of this House.—(Continued laughter.) 't Was quite mine( annary for him (Lord John Russell) to take , L arlY _further notice of the speech of the Noble Lord, because t he notice s it F • nend, the Member for Lanca s hi re , h a d g i ven re l I.ly, and he re h e would beg to say char h aut e 14°,„, f old that they had obtained such a valuable as they had accession to their wisdom received through th ss; t gentleman .

C.IHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then ms that t be ',Bill to suspend the Navigation Laws be rea d - i - Z• st time. ' Mr. - .THYME said that he mast confess that be was rather too hard u port the Noble Lord for not bringing in at once more compissn ew sive measures, seeing the opposition which was ma.. saifested by the other side. Mr. B. 0, %BORNE begged most emphatically to deny the Judie-It of any imputations which had been cast upon the con duct of the landlords, they were invariably' reducing; their establishments, /and, in a majority of cases, supporting the p~eeoople in their c istricts. He repeated that Ministers should have adopted mo. re comprehensive measures than those which were ceded to the people of Ireland by all the Members of that lfous e out of sympathy to the Irish people, The Government were meraid of offer ading the two great classes of the country— She agriculturists a isd the ship-owners, or they would have done so before. He den ird that the Irish nation were "a nation of beggars," al td would; not trust hi mse lf to c h aracter i se th e con duct of th ese ph9 11 44td that they were. The greatest blame "', • - • ge, . ' ..~-;..._...~a._... was attributable to the conduct of the Chancellor of the Exche quer, who stated that meat should be sold at the rate of lid. per pound. The expression had thrown the people of Ireland off their guard, and meat was now more than double that price. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER denied having made use of any expression of the kind. Mr. B. OSBORNE reiterated his assertion. He carried the speech about with him, as an eternal memento of the reck less nature of the expressions made use of by the Members of the Government. STATE PAPERS. vernrnental an-1 to social order. The Empc , ror, while regretting deeply that there s h ou ld ue any difference ui opinion btween the French Cabinet and the three Cour • on the subject of the point of right in this question, flat ters hicasel , ,nevertheless, that theirviews will meet in the common resolution of all the Courts to observe, and cause to he observed, scrupulously, the treaties in their true and literal sense, and in their spirit. Your Excel lency will be pleased to bring this present dispatch to the knowledge of M. Guizot, and remit to him a copy of it. • M. Guizot laid before the French Chamber of Peers on Monday two more documents relative to the Spanish marriages, with the reply of Austria to the protest against the infraction of the Treaty of Vienna, implied in the incorporation of Cracow. These papers will be found below. Leave was then given to bring in a Bill to suspend the navi gation laws, which was read a first time. Mr. OSBORNE moved for a return of the valuation of each electoral division in Ireland, with population in 1841, as also a return of all correspondence between the Board of Works in Dublin, and the Treasury with Mr. Smith, of Deanston, rela tive to his taking charge of a system of " Thorough Drainage" in Ireland; and, also a return of all correspondence between Colonel Knox Gore, lieutenant of county Sligo, and her Majesty's Ministers, relative to the famine in Ireland, dated August 6th and 7th, 1846, which were agreed to. Mr. B. ESCOTT wished to ask the Right Honourable (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) if he understood him cor rectly, when he stated in his speech this evening that all the Indian corn received up to the present time in this country was the crop of 1845, and that they had as yet received no portion of the crop of 1846. If so, it was a most consolatory fact. COURT OF COMi►3ON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of a great deal . , of public business. It was numerously at• tended. FARRINGDON WITHOUT WARD. Mr. EDKINS, one of the gentlemen elected at the ward mote, the return of which has been d• Oared null and void by the Court of Aldermen, appeared at the bar, and desired to be sworn ; and Mr. Richard Taylor, who had also been elected a Common Councilman for that ward, made a similar application. The LORD MAYOR said he coald not permit the gen tlemen to be sworn, as The return had been formally quashed by the Court of Aldermen. Both applicants appeared to be much displeased at his Lordship's refusal, and the latter said the Lord Mayor must consider that he had rejected the demand upon his pert. Alderman H. HUGHES said they had no right to be dissatisfied at the decision of the Court of Aldermen, as the return had been quashed in mercy to the candidates, who would, if such had not been the case, be subject to pains and penalties for acting under a false return. THE CONTEST BETWEEN THE COURT OF ALDERMEN AND THE COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. When the clerk of the Court, in reading the minutes of the last Court, arrived at the passage in which it was stated that the Lord Mayor had refused to put the ques tion as to the third reading of the Common Council Qua lifications Bill, Mr. HALL, a much-respected member of the Court, rose, and said he begged to call their attention to the subject of these minutes. It was the opinion of several cf the members that there was a mistake in the record, and that it was necessary to correct that mistake, lest they should forfeit what they considered to be their right. He was one of those who considered that there did exist a mis-statement in the minutes of the last Court ; and he should move that a committee of privi• leges be appointed to examine and report upon the subject as the best adopted form of proceeding to pre vent the interruption to the public business likely to arise from the adoption of a different course, especially as the matters about which the two courts had lately disagreed might be reformed with advantage, and with the probability of an unanimous concurrence to such committee.—(Hear, hear.) It struck many of the members that a better opportunity could not occur for submitting the whole question to examination, with a view to a perfect understanding between the Courts than the formation of a committee of privileges, in which the rights and privileges of the two bodies could be fully discussed and presented. The committee should consist of all the members of both Courts, and if it were con sidered advisable by them to appoint a sub-committee, as better calculated to discuss the existing differences, they could easily select from the two bodies persons in whose judgment they might have perfect reliance.—(Cheers.) Mr. Hall then proposed the following motion:—" That a Committee of Privileges, consisting of the whole Court, be now appointed, and that the alleged error in the minutes of the last Court, as well as the differences that have lately arisen between this Court and the Lord Mayor, and between this Court and the Court of Al dermen, on the subject of the " Qualifications' Bill," be severally referred to the said Committee to consider and report. Deputy CORNET seconded the motion with the utmost satisfaction. The object of it was to induce the una nimity so essential to the well being of the Corporation. lie had on a previous ocervion expressed a wish that whatever committee might be appointed should confer with the Court of Aldermen, but that object was em• braced in the more compreli( naive motion just pro posed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—Yes ; he believed they had yet received no portion of the crop of 1846. In ordinary years it was not exported, from America, before the month of December, and he had every reason to believe that they had yet received no portion of the crop of 1846. Mr. WARBURTON wished to know if it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to introduce any Bills this session for amending and consolidating the Acts relating to the sana tory condition of towns, viz., the Acts relating to police, paving, lighting, and watching ? If so, a knowledge of the ctr cumstance would probably supersede the necessity of any pri vate individual bringing in a Bill on the subject. Sir GEORGE GREY was happy to inform the Hon. Member that measures of the kind referred to were in a for ward state of preparation, and he thought that in about ten days they would be ready to be laid upon the table of the House. The House then adjourned at a Quarter• past Ten. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS (From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of Comma WEDNESDAY; JAIN. 20. The following petitions for Railways were presented, and the Bills ordered to be brought in by the undernamed Hon. Members : Bristol and Exeter (Taunton and Castle Cary Branch) — Mr. Dickinson, Mr. P. Miles, and Mr. H. Berkeley. Bristol and Exeter (Branch from Bleedon to Wells, Glas tonbury, and Street)—Mr. Dickinson, Mr. P. Miles, and Mr. H. Berkeley. South-Eastern (Mid Kent and Direct Tunbridge)—Sir E. Filmer and Mr. Plumptre. Lowestoft Railway and Harbour (Alteration near Reed ham)—Mr. Burroughs and Mr. Wodehouse. The motion was accordingly agreed to. In a subsequent part of the day, Mr. JOHN WOOD, who, it will be recollected, brought in the Qualifications' Bill, rose, and said, that if the Court had not agreed to the proposition of Mr. Hall, he certainly should have at once called for the third reading of the Bill, in his ca pacity of Chairman of the Committee, in which it had been framed, in compliance with the order of the Court. The measure adopted that day, however, had rendered such a step unnecessary, but he felt it to be his duty, however, to present his protest against the exclusion from the paper of business of the notice for the third reading of the Qualifications Bill, and to insist upon his right to have that notice duly entered upon that docu ment.—(Hear, hear.) He here handed a paper con taining his protest, and moved that it be entered on the minutes of the Court.—(Cheers.) Mr. WIRE seconded the motion. The Court, he said had at the same time that it had no desire to interfere with the privileges of the Court of Aldermen, was de termined to protect it s own , an d w h en a Lord Mayor assumed the power to strike notices off the paper without permission of the Court, it was high time to enquire into the real extent of his authority. He had beard it asserted by Aldermen, and by others, that it was the desire of the Court of Common Council to over ride the privileges of the Aldermen. Such was not the fact, for the Court of Common Council was a jealous of the pri vileges of that body as of its own. The LORD MAYOR asked whether there was any pre cedent for the offer of a protest by an individual? Mr. WOOD said he was not aware that there was any necessity for a precedent. He had, by order of the Court, brought in a Bill, which had been unanimously agreed to upon the first aad second readings, and if there existed no precedent for protesting against the unauthorised exclusion of that Bill from the paper of business, it was time that a precedent should be made. (Hear, hear.) Alderman H. HUGHES said it augured unfavourably for the peaceful result of the Committee of Privileges, that such a protest was handed in, and he hoped the Lord Mayor would not put the question from the chair. Mr. R. L. JONES—Do you speak for war or for peace? Alderman H. HUGHES—War is certainly far from my heart, whatever my words may indicate. The RECORDER said that in the House of Commons such a power as that which the Lord Mayor questioned did not exist. It was the privilege of the Lords alone to protest individually, but the paper handed in might be taken as part of Mr. Wood's speech, and entered upon the minutes, if suchwerete advicehepleasu o r f e o o r f le th w e h C o o w u o r u t. ld T b h e e Lord Mayotar9wsiigg upon th suggest would anythingdoffernooppliokesilty to embarrassiontoamotionthteo veryth that effect, sorry acting Court. Sir PETER LAURIE said that if ever there was a measure calculated to conciliate the two Courts, that measure had been adopted that day. The Common Council had shown that they were determined to defend the privileges of both bodies. Alderman HUGHES Huonis said he objected to the proposition of Mr. Wood merely as a protest. He had no objection to it as a motion. The question that the paper handed in by Mr. Wood was entered in the minutes of the Court was then put, and carried unanimously. PERIODICAL ELECTION ALDERMEN, Mr. ASHURST then gave in a notice of motion, which caused a sensation in the Court. I x t c w H a A s N , o ‘ E ‘ T c h o a m t m t i h T : .

The powers of the Committee were accordingly trans ferred, and the report was ordered to be printed. THE STARVING IRISH AND SCOTCH. Mr. HARRISON. after a speech which did great credit to the Court and the advocate, proposed that the sum of 2,0001. be voted from the funds of the corporation for the relief of the distressed Irish and Scotch. The proposition was received with acclamation by every member of the Court, but there were two or three who could not let it pass without attempting to throw a blot upon it by illiberal observations in the comparison between the Irish and Scotch claimants. Mr. PEWTRESS, after explaining his complete con currence in the proposition to serve our starving fellow creatures, said it was extraordinary that the means which the Government had in their hands to alleviate he existing deplorable evil were never resorted to in [reland. In Ireland there was a Poor Law, which was unfortunately confined in its operations to the work house. Why was not the strictness of that law relaxed, and assistance given to outdoor sufferers ? It was dreadful that the guardians in so frightful an emergency did not exercise that power. If they exceeded it an in demnity would be readily applied. Mr. WIRE said the guardians would have done all that could be done, if they had the money to carry their wishes into execution ; but in many of the districts the ratepayers themselves were objects of charity, and it was impossible to abstract from the starving, for the starving. The Lone Navou immediately signed a cheque for the 2,000/, which he said he should hand that evening to the committee, of which he had the honour to be a member, and he expressed a fervent hope that the ex• ample of the city of London would be followed by every other corporation in England.—(Cheers.) TIIE ROYAL VISIT TO GEERNSEY.—The subscrip tion for the memorial which it is proposed to erect in Guern sey, in cilebration of her Majesty's late visit to that island, is already announced to exceed the sum of 1,260/. A sub scriptior has also been set on foot among the inhabitants for the relief of the distress in Ireland, in furtherance of which benevolent object nearly 600/. has been contributed. A SOLDIER POUND DEAD ON GLOSSOP Moons.— On Thursday morning last, the dead body of a soldier was found on a part of the moor above Glossop Low. It ap pears that his intention was to go to Sheffield to visit his fr!ends. There is little doubt the unfortunate man missed his way, and becoming bewildered amid the dark ness vas frozen to death. The deceased's name was Samuel Burgh, of the 69th Regiment, now stationed at Burnley; he wts a very tine athletic man, about 34 years of age. The j ury returned a verdict of found dead.—Muncitester Guadiass. TJEiR SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 22, 1847 INDTAN LANGITAGE?. Ex,r,,tet of a letter troll: Lleatehant Abet t, Cut p, of Topugraphieal Engineers, dated Bent's Fort, Septerniwr 6, 1846.

"These Indians are beginning to turn their attention to the arts of civilised life. Old ' Yellow Wolf,' whose likeness I took on my previous visit to this region, of last year, has been for some time endeavouring to have a fort built, so that the old man could stay at home, be in security, and watch their crops, while the young men were out hunting. He wishes to live like the whites, as he says the buffalo are diminishing so fast that in a few years more the Indian will not be able to depend upon them for food, and he wishes his people to give attention, without delay, to the raising of cattle, corn, pumpkins, and everything which would be useful for food. Such a disposition should be carefully fostered and encouraged. "Last year he (Yellow Wolf) and all his adherents offered a mule each to Mr. Smith, a trader, if he would build for them a fort, like that of the Bents, and get Spaniards to till the ground.

" These Indiana (the Cheyennes) also deserve much from the UnitA States, because of their uniformly good conduct. They have always protected the whites in their trading excursions." THE INTENDED NEW LUNATIC ASYLUM AT BIRMINGHAM. The asylum is intended for 300 patients, 150 of each sex ; Leing completely separated. The principal and most novel feature in the plans for the asylum is ar. in. spection passage, which, from the entrance, traverses the whole extent of the main wings, and communicates with the end of each gallery or ward for patients, so making a ready complete means of inspection and channel of com munication between every part of the building—that ap proaches to the patients, the governor and matron's resi dences, the kitchen, and washing departrnents,:the chapel, and, in fact, to every part of the house. From the inspec tion of the passage before mentioned, the galleries or wards (each for one class of patients), branch off at right angles, each gallery being complete in itself, with its own day-room, airing courts, sleeping rooms, bath, store, and attendant's lodging room. Each gallery being for one class of patients, noisy, expileptic, eze., as the case may be, and having no communication with any other gallery except by means of the inspection passages,lhe disturbances which often occur in asylums, and which is detrimental to the patients, will be prevented, and those who may become violent or noisy, may be readily re moved to their proper department. Separate sleeping rooms have been provided in the proportion of one-third of the total accommodation, and in the associated sleep ing rooms the number of beds will vary from three to nine. The air will be warmed before ainiission into the different rooms, by means of a steam apparatus, and ar rangements are made for an effectual method of summer ventilation. Open fire-places are provided in the rooms where the patients sit, and this experience has proved to be very conducive to the comfort of the unfortunate inmates of an asylum for lunatics. Appropriate resi dences for the medical superintendent and the matron have been provided, together with a room for conveniently th magistrates' pa tients f ora meeting,pmpuros music, h t e h de singing,nf e r c o e mo s r s necessary other stof fice, such amusements maanl and s'a ahnadl l for recreation, in which it is prop ose d to h ave meetings of as seem proper. The chapel is so placed as to be females' departments. Workshops have also been pro vided to permit of the employment, in their own trades, of such of the patients as may be in a fit state of health, and many others can be employ ed in the grounds. Every arrangement has been made to provide for the constant occupation of the patient, to preventing that fatal brooding over their painful state, to which many persons of unsound mind are particularly subject. The building will be in the Elizabethian style, of plain cha racter ; the materials will be brick, with stone dressing to the door and windows, and quoin stones at the angles of the entrance buildings, which will be approached by a drive, and are raised on a terrace. The tout ensemble will be at once cheerful, neat, and substantial, and. the building will be an ornament to the town.—Birmingha Herald.

DISCOVERY OF CURIOUS ASTRONOMICAL MSS. IN CHETHAM'S LIBRART.—A few weeks ago, Mr. Thomas Jones, M.A., the librarian of Chatham's Library, in clearing out some of the less frequented "classes," found a box with a small piece of parchment on the lid, inscribed "S. Smet hurst's Manuscripts." The box, which was open, was found to contain a thick 4to MS. volume, filled with as tronomical papers, calculations, and diagrams; two thinner 4to volumes of MSS., and a number of loose sheets of calcu lations; amongst others, one for ascertaining the quadra tare of the circle, apparently deduced from the tangent, of 30 degrees, and another for ascertaining the square root of twelve. Amongst the more curious calculations in the larger volume are some as to the moon's longi tude, anomaly, and node for every year from 1782 to beyond the year 2000, and similar ones as to the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn —all annually, and extending to a period of 150 or 160 years hence. This volume contains diagrams and types of a great many solar and lunar eclipses, many of them cal culated and constructed before the occurrence of these phenomenon; transits of Mercury to a period yet distant, occultations, &c. One of the smaller MS. volumes contains a treatise on the rise and progress of astronomy, with cal culations and types of many solar and lunar eclipses in ancient times, some of them hundreds of years before Christ. At the end of this volume is a printed prospectus (of four pages) of svor ks to be published by subscription by Samuel Smethurst. From an incidental notice in one of the MSS. we learn that Samuel Smethurst was born in 1714, and was living in 1790, at the age of 76 years. But his name ap pears to be unknown amongst astronomers, geometricians, and mathematicians, though living so recently as within the last 60 years, nor do we find any publication by Samuel Smethurst in Watt's" Bibliotheca Britannica."—Manchester Guardian. THE DUTCH NAVY.—The Dutch Navy consists of two ships-of-the-line of 84 guns, five of 74 (of which three are building), two of 60, one of 54, eleven of 44, two of 38 (building), three of 32, nine of 28, four of 20 (of which two are building), two of 22, two of 20, eleven of 18 (of which one is building), one of 16, eleven of 14. seven of 12 (of which four are building), two of 8, fire of 6, five of 5, four of 4, and three of 3 guns; in all 92 vessels, with 2,356 guns of different calibre. Besides, there are ten steam-boats, carrying 64 guns, two iron steam-boats (and one building), five transports, ten gun-boats, and one bomb-vessel. THE DISTRESS IN SCOTLAND.--ISLAND OF LEWIS. —We have seen a letter from a respectable merchant in Stornoway, describing the measures which that enlightened and liberal proprietor, Mr. Mathieson, is adopting for the relief of the destitute islanders. "He is giving employment," says the writer, " to all who apply for it, and is giving them food in return, at prime cost. He is doing a vast amount of good in the country, and lam confident will do more. The attacks made upon him by certain persons are very ungene rous."—Scottish Guardian. We read in a letter from E4ribos (Greece), of the 25th tilt. :—" There is in the whole of Greece only one guil lotine. Wherever an execution is to take place, therefore, the guillotine must be taken to the place. For some time past this instrument had been stationary at Athens, as there were a great many brigands to decapitate who had been taken in the environs. Tne guillotine is now making the tour of the provinces, and is at this moment at Egribos, where it has just served to cut off the heads of eleven persons, one of them a priest, who were condemned to death some time ago for piracy. Although a great portion of our population do not regard piracy as a crime, and have a profound veneration for priests in general, whatever their private conduct may be, there was no manifestation at the place of execution in favour of the curiosity. The number of persons present to witness the execution was about 12,000." We hear the Ministers of Austria, Russia, and PrUssia did not attend the opening of Parliament with th e rest of the corps diplomatique, in consequence of the formal protest contained in her Majesty's Speech against the recent annexation of Cracow. No doubt this step was taken by their Excellencies as a mark of deference and respect to a n opinion so forcibly entertained and expressed by the Sove- reign and Parliament of this country, with reference to the violation of the treaty of Vienna by their respective Courts. —Times.

Monsieur le Comte,—Viscount de Flahaut has brought t o my knowledge the dispatch which M. Guizot ad t tressed to him on the 3d December last, with orders to 1 cive me a copy. We have since been informed that dis ' patches of the same tenor had been addressed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the French missions at Berlin and at St. Petersburgh. Having laid the dispatch in question before the Em peror, our august master, and obtained his com : mends as to the answer to be made to this communica tion, I am authorised by his Imperial Majesty to ad dress to you the following manifestations, which form the invariable basis and rule of his policy. They com prise the sentiments of the Emperor, which are in perfect accord sith those of their Majesties of Prussia 'air.'d Russia. His Imperial Majesty attaches to treaties all the value of sworn faith. He causes them to be re spected, and feels himself entitled to expect that all (Abel parties signing an engagement will respect on their sides all that the engagement contains. We do iDo .L admit that a treaty cannot establish rights and et tarps. We do not admit, on the other hand, that the Si ghts, or the weight of the charges they impose upon th e contracting parties, may be carried beyond the limits lel Lich the contracted engagement traces for them.

C ,.. ~'~'. ~• [ y . ` . • _ LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. BULWER, Foreign-office, 19th July, 1846. Sir,—Two questions appear to me at this moment to occupy, in a particular manner, the attention of persons who take an interest in the affairs of Spain. One is the marriage of the Queen •, the other the political state of the country. As regards the first question, I have no thing for the moment to add to the instructions which you have received from my predecessor. The British Government does not propose to itself to support in an active manner the pretensions of either of the Princes who now offer themselves as candidates for the hand of the Queen of Spain, nor does it think that it has a right to oppose either of them. Tho choice of a husband for the Queen of an independent country is evidently an affair in which the Governments of other countries have no right to interfere, unless there be a probability of the choice falling on a Prince so directly belong ing to the reigning family of some great foreign power, that a fear might exist of his attaching the policy of his adopted country to that of his native country in a man ner prejudicial to European equilibrium, and dangerous to the interests of other states. But neither of the per sons now mentioned as candidates for the hand of the Queen is in this condition. These candidates, in fact, are reduced to th re e—Prin c e Leopold of Saxe Coburg' and the two sons of Don Francisco de Paula. Ido not speak either of the Count de Trapani or the Count de Montemolino, for there does not appear to be any chance that the choice will fall upon one or the other of these two Princes. As to the three candidates above mentioned, her Majesty's Government has only to ex press its sincere desire that the choice may fall on such one of them as possesses the qualifications most calcu lated to secure the happiness of the Queen, and contri bute to the welfare of the Spanish nation. As regards the second of the questions to which I have alluded— that is to say, the political state of Spain, I have not at this moment any more instructions to give you than on the first. This political situation, it must be confessed, cannot but be a subject of profound regret and affliction for all who feel an interest for the Spanish nation. After a struggle to obtain constitu tional liberty, which has lasted 34 years, Spain finds herself under a system of government almost as arbitrary in practice, whatever it may be in theory, as any of those which have existed at any anterior period of her history. She has, it is true, a Parliament according to the terms of the law; but all liberty of election for the Membersof this Parliament has been neutralised byforce or by other means; and it no sooner assembles than, upon the first manifestation of any opinion whatever not in accord with the views of the executive Government, it is prorogued or dissolved. The liberty of the press is written in the law, but the arbitrary acts of the Govern ment have reduced this liberty to the publication of what may be agreeable to the executive power, and no thing, or nearly nothing else. The law has instituted, it is true, tribunals to try prisoners who are accused of crimes and offences; but a host of persons have been arrested, imprisoned, banished, and even in certain cases executed, not only without condemnation, but even without trial. This system of violence and arbitrary conduct appears to have survived, up to a certain point, the fall of its author, and not to have been yet aban doned by the more moderate men who have succeeded him in the Government. It is greatly to be desired that the present Ministers of Spain, or those who may suc ceed them, should without loss of time return to a con stitutional course, and at length show a respect for the law. A system of arbitrary violence like that which has been followed in Spain, has for its probable result the exciting of open resistance, when it is directed by the firm hand and tte energetic will of the min who or• ganised it; but when it is no longer sustained by this vigorous hand, and it is attempted to continue it under a weaker and less bold direction, it does not require much sagacity to foresee that this system will inevitably lead to an explosion. When the Ministers of the Crown trample under foot the laws which guarantee the se curity of the people, we must not be astonished if the people cease at length to respect the laws which guarantee the security of the Crown. It certainly was not for the purpose of subjecting the Spanish nation to the tyranny under which it groans at present, that Great Britain signed the engagements of the quadruple alliance in 1835, and afforded, in conformity with the stipulations of that treaty, the active support which contributed so power fully to the expulsion of Don Carlos from the Spanish territory. But her Majesty's Government is so fully satisfied of the inconvenience of all inter ference in the domestic affairs of independent states —even when that interference is confined to friendly counsels—that I must abstain from requesting you to make any representation on this subject to the Spanish Ministers. However, whilst being cautious not to ex press on this subject, on any occasion, sentiments dif ferent from those which I have just expressed to you, and being careful also not to express those sentiments on any occasion or under any form which might be of a nature to excite, augment, or encourage the general discontent, you need not conceal from any of the persons on whom it may depend to remedy the present evils, the fact that such are the opinions of the British Govern ment. LORD ABERDEEN TO THE DUKE DE SOTOMAYOR. Foreign-office, June 22, 1846. Monsieur le Duc,—You have informed me that you were charged with ascertaining whether the British Go vernment would testify any displeasure in case the Cabinet of Madrid should find it necessary, in the in. terests of the Spanish monarchy, to choose for the future husband of the Queen a Prince other• than t a member of the House of Bourbon; and if in case France, wounded by such proceeding, should seek I to constrain the free action of the Spanish Government, Great Britain would look upon such conduct with indif ference. I cannot find any difficulty in answering these questions. We have always contested, and we still con test, the right or pretension of the French Government to impose upon the Spanish nation, as consort for the Queen, a member of any family whatever, or to exercise any kind of control over a question so purely Spanish. But we have comprehended and willingly admit that there may be different reasons leading the Spanish Go vernment to select in preference, a prince of the House of Bourbon. Among these reasons it was natural to suppose that the desire on the part of Spain, and the interests of Spain in maintaining amicable relations with France, would have great weight. We, therefore, made no objection to the proposition of seeking a husband for the Queen from among the descendants of Philip V., provided that the choice was conformable to the inclination of her Majesty and to the interests of her Government. We have never made any objec tion to the choice of Count Trapani, when it was in con templation to unite Queen Isabella to her uncle; but when this alliance became manifestly odious to the Spanish nation, we ventured, although without any Eng lish candidate and English preference, to point out the Infante Don Henry as a prince who appeared to be most suitable to choose, because he seemed :to be most agreeable to the Spanish people.? If it be found that choice cannot be made in all surety of edescendant of Philip V., in accord with the happiness of the Queen, and taking due care of the tranquillity of the country, the Spanish Government, exercising its free judgment, ought to act as the sense of its own dignity and interests may dictate ; and in such case it cannot be a cause of displeasure to Great Britain if it chooses a prince from any other family. Whatever may be the disappoint. ment such a decision may cause France to experience, I know not how to admit for an instant the possibility of a thing in every way so unreasonable and unjust, as an attempt made to fetter the choice of the Queen in an affair of this nature. The French Go vernment ought to know . perfectly well that any mar riage which should not be in conformity with the wishes of the Queen, and which should not have the assent •of the people, would not offer any chance of en ;suring the happiness of ~the Sovereign, or the welfare I tnd prosperity of Spain. France is too deeply interested i n the tranquillity of Spain, and the Court of the Tulle ies is much too enlightened and just to conceive the i idea of such an intervention as has been supposed. We may then repel, this supposition, without hesitation, as i. mpossible. But if, contrary to all reason, to all pro b , ability, such or a similar project should be entertained, tl hat is to say, an attempt to fetter the wishes and feel ings of the Queen, and the clearly manifested wishes of lei- people, it cannot be doubted that Spain would have in her favour the lively sympathies, not only of Great Britain, but of all Europe.—l am, &c., ABERDEEN. LAW TNT PLTATGENCR. VICE Ciii-h‘C.EILY COURT, lan. 21. ' ( Before Vice-Chancellor SHADWELL.) ARTIFICIAL TEETII—MUGGRIDGE V. THOMAS. Mr. COOPER applied for an injunction to restrain the de. fendant, who is a dentist in Duke-street, Grosvenor-square, from continuing to keep a brass plate on his door, stating that he was the principal assistant and designer to the plaintiff, who has carried on the business of a dentist in Old Burlington -street for several ye trs, and flu. preventing him from tirculaitng cards and FLO:lielling advertisements in the newspapers setting forth that h 3 is the sole inv en to r o f a new mode of fixing artificial teeth, to the great injury of the plaintiff, who had invented and obtained a patent in March last for "Pneumatics, or the fixing of teeth on the self sustaining principle instead of wires." The plaintiff set forth that he was the sole inventor of this principle, and that the defendant had employed a person to deliver the circulars com plained of to his patients at his doer, and that in consequence they had been misled, and his business materially injured. The VICE-CHANCELLOR granted the application. THE lIIINGERFORD MARKET COMPANY E. THE CHARING- CROSS SUSPENSION-BRIDGE.

DAVIS. Mr. HUMPHREY moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict in this case should not be set aside, and a new trial bad on the ground of misdirection. The Learned Counsel explained the nature of the case, from which it appeared that the plaintiff's, Messrs. Howard and Bakery were lessees of coach - makers'prernise, inLong-acre.ln midsummerl 843,theylet them to Messrs. N'S5 burn and Millar, who afterwards underlet them to a person of the name of Milne, with an understanding that the fixtures on the premises, and which were the property of plaintiffs, should be allowed to remain. Milne some time afterwards died, and the defendants, as his executors, let the premises to another party. The action was brought to recover the value, or the hire of the fixtures, and a verdict was entered for defendants, there being no evidence, in the. opinion of the Learned Judge, of the plaintiffs- having been the landlords. Mr. IlumFnEv contended that his Lordship's direction was wro , g, there having been no evidence to show that the plaintiffs were not the owners, and that it lay on defendants to show their want of title. The COURT refused the rule, on the ground that no evi dence bad been submitted that a contract had been entered into between the plaintiff and defendant. TAMPERING WITH A JURY.-JOHNSON r. ABRAHAM. Mr. CRowDER, on the part of the defendant, now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, on the ground that the witnesses were corrupted, and the jury tampered with; it being alleged that the son of the plaintiff gave one sovereign each to three of the jury, and a sum net specified to another, and also that he treated the jury. Mr. Burr (with whom was Mr. Collier) showed !cause against the rule, and, after reading a number of affidavits contradictory of the allegations, admitted that 10s. had been given by the son of the plaintiff to three of the jury, but contended that it was a youthful indiscretion, and, in the absence of any other inculpatory evidence, was not sufficient to warrant a new trial. Mr. CROWDER having replied, The COURT was of opinion that the rule should be made absolute.—Rule made absolute. BAIL COURT, Jan. 21. The Court was occupied during the entire morning with ordinary motions, none of which possessed any feature of interest. The Court did not afterwards sit at Nisi Prius.

A very numerously attended meeting of the Magistrates for the county of Middlesex was held yesterday, at twelve o'clock, in the Court-house, Clerkenwell-green, for the transaction of the usuil county business of the January Quarter Sessions. \!r. Pownall in the chair. After the reading of the minutes of the last meeting, and the transaction of other routine business, The Deputy-Clerk of the Peace read the report of Dr. iknolly with respect to the County Lunatic Asylum. The report was adopted without a dissentient, and ordered to be printed for circulation. The report of the county solicitors of their proceedings in regard to patients in the Lunatic Asylum, and the incidental expenses, was then read and adopted. The report of the Visiting Justices of the House of Correc tion, Coldbath-fields, was read, from which it appeared that the number of prisoners confined in that gaol was 751 males and 237 females, making 988 in all, exclusive of eight chil.. dren. The report, which stated that the health of the pri soners was very good, only six persons being in the infirmary was unanimously adopted. POLICE INTELLIGENCE, BOW-STREET. George Abbot who has been several times remanded on a charge of stealing a quantity of miscellaneous property from Lincoln's Inn Hall, where he acted as stoker, was again brought before the magistrate ( Mr. Henry) yesterday morning, but as there was no further evidence ready, tl:e case was not entered into at any length. Mr. HENRY remanded the prisoner till Wednesday next, observing that if ➢lr. Inspector Pearce (who has conducted the case) was not then prepared to complete the evidence, he would commit the prisoner for trial on the case as it stood. It was intimated that several witnesses would be produced who had not hitherto appeared, and that it was expected that the prosecutor's watch would be found and produced. MARLBOROUGH-STRk ET. William Spencer was charged with driving a ginger -beer cart furiously in Berners-street last night, and with runnin g the shaft of the cart about fourteen inches into the shoulder of a cab horse. Witnesses were caned, who deposed to the defendant being drunk at the time, and that he had sufficient warning from the cab-driver to have pulled up or driven out of the way. The damage could not be estimated this morning on account of the very doubtful issue of the injury done to the horse. Mr. HARDWICK fined him forty shillings for furious driving, and left it open to the cab-proprietor to sue the oviner of the cart by action for damages.

THE VALUE OF LAND IN IRELAND. --Wednesday the perpetual rent of about 1,900 statute acres (of which about 1,400 consisted of profitable land, the remainder being tideland, rocky and hog), and which realised only about 1401. per annum, was put up to auction at Garraway's, by Mr. Alderman Farebrother. The property, which was known as the Kilbride Estate, and which was situate in the barony of Forth, in the county of Carlow, coi..prised extensive farms, with also two-thirds of all minerals, timber, underwoods, &c, growing or to grow on the estate, which was vilurd last year at 1,0004, and which, in coosegaelice of a railw;,y byi,,g about to adjoin the estate, the auctioneer said would be double its value. The estate was eaiu to be at thirty-li,, y ear 's pur chase, worth 5,600/. After an active competition, it was knocked down for 3,7001. DYER,. V. GREZ X. This cause, which was in part heard y e st er d ay , was an action brought under the Interpleader Act, to recover back the possession of some goods, alleged to have been wrong fully taken in execution. On the part of the plaintiff, it was stated that he had pur chased the goods in question, and produced in support thereof a bill of ,sale, to which was annexed a schedule of the articles purchased. Witnesses were also called to prove the purchase and sale of the guods. An objection was take❑ to the schedule of the goods, on the ground that it was not stamped. Mr. WArsox, for the plaintiff, contended that there was no necessity for stamping the schedule, and that it was a sufficient compliance with the Stamp Act if the document were annexed to the bill of sale, that having been properly stamped. The LoRD CHIEF BARON said it was clear the verdict must be for the defendant, the p:aintiff having failed to make out his case ; it was absurd and ridiculous to contend that the requisitions of the Stamp Act had been complied with. Mr. WATSON—That is not language which I hays been in the habit of hearing addressed to me from the bench, upon arguments which I may have occasion to address to the jury on behalf of my clients; and it is unfair to the interest of the plaintiff for your L.,rdship to make use of such expressions. The LORD CHIEF BARON—What I said referred only to the legal point in dispute, and had no reference to the merits of the cause, he hoped the Learned Counsel would therefore be satisfied with that explanati , •n. Verdict for the defendant accordingly. DOYLE V. RICHARDSON. _ _ A rule having been obtained in this cause during the last sittings, Mr. Knowles appeared to show cause against the rule. The plaintiff was a bookseller and stationer, carrying on an extensive Indian business, and brought his action to re cover a sum for books and publications supplied to the use of the Agra Akbar, and Indian journals, by the order of the defendant, the editor of the Missing Chronicle, who was now sued for the amount of the goods supplied, the defendant alleging that the books were to be sent to India, and that the bill for payment was to be sent to the defendant, who upon the trial denied his liability, contending that he was only to be the medium through which the payment was to be made. It was finally arranged that the clerk to the plaintiff should attend before their Lordships at their private room on Saturday morning at ten o'clock, and produce all the books kept by the plaintiff in which any entry was made relative to the transaction in question. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Jan. 21. BLAKE V. PHINN. Mr. CHADWICK JONES moved for a rule to enter a non suit in this case, which was tried during the last Middlesex sittings after term, beeore Mr. Justice Coltman. The action arose out of the bargain for a public-house. The plaintiff bargained with the defendant for the house in question, and paid a deposit of 541. 19s. 2d. Subsequently the plaintiff ob jected to the title as had, and not receiving his deposit money back, he brought his action and got a verdict for the amount. The pint now rested on the validity of the title. . MARKET NI2,WS —IVES 1 V ) . A.
