Z4lshed. as has never been affunied by any w or k hi t h erto : °4 (lo n ; Longman, Rees, Orme, Brown, Green, and Co. Mr. CHANNELL stated that this was an action brought to recover damages for the maintenance and support given by the plaintiff to the defendant's wife. This was a family dispute, as the plaintiff was the father of Mrs. Woodley. The plaintiff held a situation in Chelsea College, and the defendant was blacksmith to the College. The defendant married the plaintiff's daughter in 1828, and used his wife ill, had beaten her in the most violent and shameful manner, and infected her with a foul and loathsome disease ; and on the 11th of June, last year, had shut the door against her and her mother, and had refused even to allow her to take her clothes. The wife being thus shut out by her husband, naturally went to reside with her father and mother, who were entitled to compensation from the husband for her lodging and maintenance. James Anthony, an out-pensioner of Chelsea Hos pital, and a lodger in plaintiff's house, went on the 11th of June, last year, to the house of the defendant with Mrs. Woodley and Mrs. Harris, in order to bring away Mrs. Woodley's clothes ; defendant turned them all out, and swore that he would not admit wife or mother-in-law into his house. Kno% Mrs. Woodley from a child ; she married defendant four years ago, and was more like a servant in her husband's house than a wife ; she slept every night at her father's house from the 11th June till the ht July ; never knew any bad conduct on her part ; never saw her drunk. Other witnesses were called, who proved that Mrs. Woodley was residing at her father's house, and that an allowance of 15s. per week would be a reasonable compensation. Mr. GODSON, for the defendant, would prove that Mrs. Woodley was a most abandoned and pro fligate woman. The marriage, as the jury had heard, took place in 1828, and then the defendant, who was a blacksmith, residing near Chelsea College, and in the immediate vicinity of the plaintiff's resi dence, thought that he might set up a small shop, where his wife might sell snuff and tobacco. He would prove that, in the husband's absence, the wife became familiar with mountebanks and similar characters; that she took them into the shop, and went out with them ; that she frequently got drunk. The consequence was that the husband was obliged to give up the shop. Harriet Morecroft had repeatedly seen Mrs. Woodley drink after she went to take care of the shop ; did not believe that she was sober three days in the week ; her mother often brought her home .Lord TENTERDEN—ReaIIy the only case is the adultery. Henry Dowse, of Queen-street, Pimlico, a car penter and joiner, in June or July last year saw some mpuntebanks performing their tricks at a public house called the Orange, somewhere, as we under stood, about Chelsea Coffee-house; he saw Mrs. Woodley and her mother at the public-house on that evening; they were in the Concert-room, and one of the mountebanks, of the name of Graham, was singing; Mrs. Woodley appeared to be highly pleased with the song, and beckoned to Graham, who went up to the place where she and her mother were sitting and drinking some half-and-half; she offered some drink to Graham, and, soon after, went out with him, desiring her mother to wait for her. Edward Wayne, who took money at the Orange, had the curiosity to go and see what Graham and the woman were about, and caught them in the fact. The plaintiff's Counsel thought he could not meet this evidence. Plaintiff Nonsuited. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE 22. (Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) CURIOUS CZAR GE OF SEDUCTION. GILES V. GALE. James Morris—Had known Giles and his wife for seven years, and had gone in July last, in com pany with Giles and Smith, to the chambers of the defendant to demand Mrs. Giles. Mr. Gale opened the door, and said his name was Gale; when Giles stept forward, and said, " I have come to demand my wife ; I understand she's here." Gale said she was not, and that he knew nothing about her, and desired us to leave the office. Giles replied, he heard she was, and that if she was given up peace ably and quietly, nothing more would be said, and adding, that she was the main support of his family, and that he had already lost two hundred pounds by her absence. Gale refused further disclosure, but closed the door. James Hatfield—Had been at Gale's chambers in July last, and saw Mrs. Giles in the back office room with him; but she went towards the bed room while he was taking some refreshment offered by Gale, and Gale followed ; but (said Hatfield) they were not more than five or ten minutes in the bed-room together, and whether they were wash ing their hands, or doing any other business, I don't know.—(Laughter.) He had brought a peace warrant against her husband from Worship-street, and had brought them both together in a coach, and they appeared to know each other well ; G a l e was with her, and heard Giles address her as Miss Giles. Cross-examined by Sergeant ANDREWS—What did you say you brought against her husband ? Witness—A peace•warrarit—( Great laughter.) Sergeant ANDREWS—That will do. Hannah Cole—Was the laundress of Gale, and had repeatedly seen Mrs. Giles go to his chambers, but had never seen any impropriety of conduct be tween them; she had dined with him one evening, before she (witness) left his service; and a gentle man and another lady were present. Cross-examined—You say that she dined at Mr. Gale's chambers in his company, with another gen tleman and a lady ?—Witness—Yes, he did. Sergeant ANDREWS—Did not Mr. Giles call at your place at that time ? Witness—Yes, he did. Sergeant ANDREWS --Did he seem to know that Mrs. Giles had dined with Mr. Gale ?—Witness— He did. Sergeant ANDREWS—He told you the name of :he lady ?—Witness—He did. Sergeant ANDREWS—Did he tell you any thing else ?—Witness--He did, he told me he had been looking for her. Sergeant ANDREWS—Yes, but did he tell you anv thing about the dinner ?—Yes, he told me that there was lamb and pease, and potatoes for dinner. Sergeant ANDREWS—And was not that actually the case ?—Yes, it was. Sergeant ANDREWS—Did he not mention the names of those who were at dinner ?—Witness— Yes, he did. Charles Brookes—ls a policeman, and had come to the assistance of Giles in July last, when he wanted to apprehend his wife, then in company with Mr. Gale, coming out from the Inner Temple; Gale would not part with her, and she would not go with Giles; the two gentlemen, therefore, accom panied her to the station-house in a coach ; Giles endeavoured to force her away voluntarily by com pulsion, but this did not please the lady or Gale ; Giles accused Gale of criminal conq,exion with his wife ; Gal e responded that he had done so 50 ti mes , and would aga i n as often as he pleased; Giles told him he ought to be ashamed of himself, and again wished to take away his wife. Sergeant ANDREWS—Was Mrs. Giles willing to go with him? Witness —No; she said she was afraid then to go home with him. Sergeant A;vDttulri—Diti she not say that lie liAd Mr. HOLT protested against such an inference; for Giles had been at her room to learn the particu lars, and was making his inquiries in tears. Mr. Sergeant .A.NDREws would not willingly rake such a mass of moral delinquency from its corruption unnecessarily. But if it was not already proved that the husband was in collusion with the wife, and not only knew of, but permitted, nay insisted on her prostitution for his own profits, he had nu merous witnesses, companions of her paths and her pleasures, that would leave the question undoubted• His LORDSHIP said that no husband could bring an action for seduction, when he himself was in col lusion with that seduction. If a husband permit the prostitution of his wife, he has no remedy by law. The Jury were beginning to consult, when said Mr. HOLT—My Lord, I'll be nonsuited. CHIEF JUSTICE—Then, gentlemen of the Jury, you are released from giving any verdict. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A melancholy instance of the effects of a Catho lic marriage in this country was brought to the no notice of the LORD MAYOR, in the Justice-room. Mary Ann Sutherland, a woman of respectable appearance, but in the most deplorable state of po verty, was brought, with her three children, before his Lordship by an officer, who found them in the street, evidently in want of food. The mother did not beg, but the unaffected picture of misfortune which she presented gathered a crowd about her, and a few halfpence were given to the famishing children. She stated to the Lord Mayor that she had been married twice, in the Catholic church, to Angus Sutherland, who was discharged about seven years ago from' the 12th Lancers, and lately com muted his pension, with the view of going to Mont real. They were to have sailed from Leith about six or seven weeks ago, but her husband got drunk and lost his passage. He had received 251. at the War-office, and was to receive 91. more, and he left her at Edinburgh, having appointed to meet her at Carlisle. She sought for him in vain there and at other places, and was now totally destitute. — As her husband was born at Chatham, she applied for relief at that place, but she was told that she was no wife, and that her children were illegitimate; and as she was herself a native of St. Domingo, she had no claim any where. One of her infants was born at Edinburgh, and, of course, has no parish; and the other two were born at distant parts of the country, so that her unfortunate marriage in the Catholic church has ruined all her hopes. The LORD MAYOR asked her whether her hus band availed himself of the law upon the subject, and denied that she was his wife? The poor woman replied, that he never had ill treated her, or denied his obligation to her. He was unhappily given to drinking, however, as was the Priest who had married them, upon the assurance on his part that the ceremony was as binding as a Church of England union, and who had, in fact, been excommunicated for showing an excessive fondness for strong liquors. The LORD MAYOR said, that he did not know of any fund except that of private charity to which the applicant could have recourse. The applicant asked whether the persons to whom she might go for assistance had any right to say that she was a prostitute ? She was Dever away from her husband until he unfortunately got drunk, and spent his money, and she now had the misery of seeing her poor children without food, and of being convinced that her own life was nearly at an end. Her appearance fully corresponded with her opinion of her health. The LORD MAYOR said the case was one which might reach the ears of some Irish Members of Par liament who were now in town. His Lordship then directed Mr. Teague, the Keeper of Giltspur street Compter, to take care of the wretched family for a few days. The whole company of Russian musicians applied to the Lord Mayor in the course of the day, in con sequence of the Russian Consul's refusing to give them up their horns without their consent to con ditions with which they did not think it possible for them to comply. Mr. Benkhausen now thought proper to demand 401. instead of 141., and they were advised by Englishme n not to agree to any terms of the kind. If their instruments were given up to them, they would engage to pay any reasonable sum which might be demanded of them, but they never go back to Russia again. The LORD MAYOR sent his compliments to the Russian Consul, with a request that that gentleman would call upon him, :informing him at the same time that twenty-one of his countrymen were wait ing upon his decision. The Consul, however, did not make his appearance. His Lordship asked whether the Russiar► merchants in London would not advocate their case ? It was stated that the Russian merchants would very willingly interfere, if it were not a matter of great delicacy for them to appear in an affair of the kind, there being a very manifest disposition upon the part of the authorities resident in this country to prevent them from staying here longer. The men, it was also said, had been turned out of their lodgings, their landlord having seen that their Consul had refused to give up their instruments, and the former had not been able to support so many upon a long credit. His LORDSHIP then gave the men a shilling each, and desired them to come up on a future day, at the same time stating that Mr. Hobler would receive any contributions for their service, so that an oppor tunity might be afforded them of making their elec tion between abject slavery in Russia and freedom in this country. Mr. Barrett, the Governor of \Vhitecross-street prison, being at the Justice-room upon business, mentioned to the Lord Mayor a circumstance on which he requested his Lordship's advice and as sistance. An aged woman, the grandmother of a celebrated female vocalist at one of the theatres, had for upwards of eight years been an inmate of the prison, and had been maintained at the expense of the city and her fellow-prisoners, upon whom she formerly attended. She was now, and had long been, in consequence of an accident, confined to her bed, and it had been necessary to employ a person to wait upon her, as she was completely helpless. Va rious attempts had been made to get her out of prison by the Sheriff and others, but in vain. Her relations, who were well able to support her, ap peared to think it desirable that she should remain where she was, a burden to the city, and not only never sent her supplies, but never even visited her. The LORD MAYOR did ❑ot know of any other means of saving the poor old woman or the city of London in this case, than that of submitting the case to the managers of the theatre, or the master of the fund, who, probably, would obtain the assistance of the dramatic fraternity. WORSHIP- STREET. Thomas Troyer, alias Greenwood Haylett , an Irishman, was charged with having deserted sixteen years ago from the 80th Regiment of Foot. The . char ge h av i ng been made by a policeman, decent looking woman, about forty, stepped forward, and said that she had six children by a person with whom she cohabited fourteen years, and who had put her into a comfortable way of business; she was as happy as she could wish, till eighteen month ago, when a neighbour told her there was a fortune teller in High-street, Mile-end, who could tell for. tunes wonderfully; she had an itching to see him, and to know if she should have a husband, and she went to his house, when "the wise man" said that her happy days were all before her, and that she would marry a fair-haired man, named Troyer. In a week after the prisoner came to her house, and said his name was Troyer, and made love to her. He said " she was not a giggling girl, and he was riot a foolish boy, and therefore their courtship should be very short." Soon after they were mar mried ; arid the prisoner, on becoming master of the house, acted very profligately, and spent her money, and sold all her furniture. She had ascertained that he had a first wife living, and indeed he had often admitted the fact, as well as the circumstance of his being a deserter, of which she had given informa tion to a policeman: The Magistrate then remanded the prisoner upon the charge of bigamy, until next Tuesday. UNION-HALL. Yesterday a respectable looking man, named Phillips, presented himself before the Magistrates, and applied for a warrant against a Mr. Stiff; for obtaining money under false pretences. The applicant said Mr. stiff gained a livelihood by astrology, and as lie cast nativities with great accuracy, and was considered the first man in the land at the science, his place was constantly crowded by young and old. Some time ago he lost a valu able book, and hearing of Mr. Stiff's skill, he went to him, and asked him to point out the thief. The astrologer had recourse to several books, and after some apparent study, he exclaimed, " I have it ;" upon which he proceeded to describe, with admir able minuteness, the features, figure, and dress of a female, to whom applicant was paying his addresses, adding, that he might rest assured that the person so described was the thief who had robbed him of his book. The applicant added, that the descrip tion agreed so accurately in all respects with the young lady he at one time loved sincerely, that from the day he first consulted Mr. Stiff on the subject, he had broken off all acquaintance with her, under the full persuasion that she was the thief. The Magistrates could scarcely refrain from loud laughter at the credulity evinced by the applicant on the occasion of his visit to the " Wise Man," the appellation he went by i►► the neighbourhood where he resided. Mr. CHAMBERS inquired if the applicant had paid Mr. Stiff any money for the information he had given him about the book ? The reply was in the affirmative, the applicant saying, that in consequence of the theft being thus detected in so extraordinary a manner, he had given Mr. Stiff the sum of 101. to teach him the art of divination, or telling fortunes by the planets. Mr. CHAMBERS asked whether the book stolen from him was found in the possession of the female whom he was courting subsequently to the prophecy of Mr. Stiff?—The applicant said, that he was so convinced that she was the thief upon hearing Mr. Stiff pronounce the fact, that he discarded her from that moment, not feeling inclined to proceed crimi nally against her. The Magistrate said that he had acted with great folly in the business, to suffer the reputation of a female, to whom he admitted he was attached, to he injured by the information he derived from a fortune. teller. The Magistrate then asked the applicant whether he had been taught astrology, agreeably to Mr. Stiff's promise ?—The applicant said, that as soon as Mr. Stiff got the money into his hands, he merely gave him two or three old nativities and some books about the planets, saying that if he studied them well for a few days, he would be well versed in astrology. He did study, but left off as wise as he began; and although he applied for his money back, it was refused. The Magistrate said, that as the applicant had given money for the purpose of having his fortune told, a warrant should be issued against Stiff, who would be dealt with under the Vagrant Act. Yesterdy a female going by the assumed name'of Lady Elizabeth Carey, and pretending to be heiress to a large fortune, was brought up on the following charge : Mr. Collins, of Prospect-place, Camberwell, said that ten days ago the prisoner called at his house, described herself as a lady of title, and said she had come up to town in consequence of an important t rial ; she moved in the first circles, but had not brought her servants up from the country, as she should not stay a long time in town. Mr. Collins taken in by her specious address, allowed her to take Possession of his ready-furnished lodgings, and agreed to supply her with board. In a day's time she wrote several notes addressed to the Duke of Gloucester, Lord Palmerston, Prince Esterhazy and others, which she got Mr. Collins to put into the twopenny-post. Mr. Collins daily expected some dashing equipages belonging to her friends to drive up to the door, but none came, and " the lady" said she supposed her letters had miscarried. She then got Mr. Collins to hire a glass coach for her, and she was absent eight or nine hours, calling at the houses of the Nobility, but none would grant her an interview. After stopping at Mr. Collins's house ten days, he pressed her for money, and she said she would go to Mr. Mellish, her banker. She then went out, but never returned. Mr. Collins met her that day in the Kent-road, and gave her into custody. She was a common impostor, and had defrauded several lodging-house-keepers. The prisoner talked very big, and said she would bring an action for false imprisonment, even if it cost her 20,0001. The MAGISTRATES regretted they couldinot punish her, as the case was one of debt. It was stated that she lately absconded from a boarding-house at Kennington, where she had lived sumptuously for three months. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)

The pur. chases since our last consist of 160 Bowed, mid., sid. good, 64d. ; 220 Surat, mid., 41-d. ; good fair, sd. ; 120 Madras, good, 4jd. a sd. ; 2,410 East India, public sale. The East India Company's and private sales this day, consisting of '7,500 bales, attracted a good deal of attention : they commenced with Bengals, which sold at 48d. and qd. at the opening, and 4d. a 4d. for simi lar quality readily paid at the close; the Madras sold with great steadiness throughout, bringing rather improved prices towards the end ; the Surats also went off freely at full prices, and the entire quantity of all kinds sold. the Market presenting a very firm appearance; about half the Madras are bought for consumption, the rest taken by exporters and on speculation, hut chiefly the former ac count ; the following is the result :-1,100 Bengal, fully good fair, 4td. a 4id. ; 2,800 Madras, good fair to good, 41d. a sd. ; 3,600 S ura t, ver y or d. t o goo d f a i r , 4d. a 4id. ; a few good, sid. a 51d. TOBACCO.—The Market is dull as for export qualities; only two or three parcels of low descriptions have been taken for shipping. The demand for the home trade had been rather extensive. Sztr.—The private Silks have been principally bought in ; what little that is sold fetched very fair prices, the beet Tsatlee China selling at 14e. 7d. Cocunizar..—Tbere were 27 bags of Cochineal brought forward yesterday at public sale, but of this small parcel only part was sold ; they were from 6s. Bd. to 7s. 11 d. The few bags of fine quality were sold from 4d. to Bd. below previous rates, the market baying a very drooping appearance. - Cocoa.—Several descriptions of Cocoa are Ss. a 41. higher, on account of the alteration in the duty; 303 barrels 232 bags at a public sale this d.y, Trinidad Sls. and 345. Rice.-... Rice is firm—the prices a shade higher. Setcas.—The late advance in Pimento is maintained ; good quality sells at 6id. In other spices there is no al- teration; 1,65 g small bags of Pepper, mid. heavy Sid. and Sid. _ _ Saiarrra.E.—The late advance is firmly maintained. INnico.—There is no alteration in Indigo. There were public sales yesterday of 50 serons of Caraccas Indigo, and 84 serons of Guatemala: the former were but a middling parcel, and sold from 3s. sd. a 4s. 6d. psr lb. ; the Gua temala were mostly of good quality, and sold from 28.31 a 4s. 11d., one lot fetched as high as ss. 7d. Although they were all sold, the biddings were not animated. The Market for East India Indigo remains as before ; there are now 2,682 chests on show. The quantity on board the ships just arrived is very considerable, but whether they will be able to include them in the present sales is doubt ful ; if they can, the sale will be fully as large as was at first expected, and the examination must necessarily be very hurried and imperfect ; should they, however, not be got ready in time, we may anticipate a good many being brought to public sale soon after the East India Company's sale is over.

The Bishop of EXETER moved for the production of copies of certain regulations and explanations respecting the Board of Education in Ireland, which he understood there was no objection to. The Duke of CUMBERLAND inquired if the copies moved for were for further information than had already been submitted to the Houle ? The Bishop of EXETER believed they were. Lord BEXLEY moved (as we understood) for a return of all the expenditure to be laid on the table attending the Board of Education iu Ireland.—Adjourned. 8/. N. 61. 12s. 71. N. 01. Os. 91.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, Jsma 22. • --- Mr. MILKS presented a petition from the inhabitants of Stockton-upon-Tees, praying that in tha Bill for esta blishing a new University at Durham an enactment be introduced to allow young persons, of whatsoever deno mination their parents might be, to be entitled to tag the honours and privileges of the lecture*, &c. of the Univer verity. The Hon. Member then gave notice that on the third reading of the Bill he should move a clause to the effect contained in the petition; and also, a clause that the accounts of the University be laid before Parliament annually. Mr. hWART presented petitions from the Dissenting Congregations of Renshaw and Paradise-street Chapels, Liverpool, in favour of the Government plan of education in Ireland. Also, three petitions from various parts of Ireland, praying for the abolition of the punishment of death in certain cases. Mr. A. JOHNSTON presented a petitio❑ from the Royal burgh of Grainge, praying for an extension of the boundaries of that borough, and one from certain inha bitants of Edinburgh, against the Government plan of education in Ireland. He took this opportunky of contra dicting the statement made on a former night in the House that the inhabitants of Edinburgh were in favour of that plan of education. Mr. SINCLAIR took the present opportunity of ex pressing the regret and disJppointinent which every can did mind must have felt at the manner in which the pro ceedings of the House had yesterday been brought to a termination.—(Hear.) Such an expedient he thoug'at was extremely improper, and he must protest against it. Captain GORDON designated the proceedings la , t night as a most unprecedented trick—.a trick which he trusted few persons in the House were capable of resort ing to. It was never expected that during the presenta tion of private petitions, gentlemen should occupy their seats; and to take advantage of their temporary absence was a trespass—if not on the rules of Parliament, yet on that courtesy which one gentleman generally used to wards another. Mr. GISBORNE (who bad last night moved that the House be counted) said the somewhat unmeasured manner in which his conduct was viewed—(Hear)—would not prevent him from stating, that if he had taken a little time for reflection he would not have taken such a course. He regretted that lie had put any member to inconve nience ; but the whole operation was almost instanta neous. He must state also that it was wholly by his own suggestion, and without the knowledge of any other Mem her. He acknowledged the courteous manner in which the Hon. Member near him (Mr. Sinclair) had spoken on the subject, and he thought it better not to trust himself to answer what had been said of him by another Hon. Mem ber. He (Mr. Gisborne) did not, perhaps, act so courteously as he ought to have done ; but he did not think that his general conduct was such as to entitle him to the language that had been used by one lion. Member (Capt. Gordon). He trusted that the House would now think he bad done every thing which the occasion required of him.—(hear.) Captain GORDON said, after what had fallen from the Hun. Alember, he would not hesitate in saying that lie (Capt. Gordon) had spoken with considerable warmth, for which, he believed, he had some reason. He would now however, most unquivocally, retract every thing which could give pain to the Hon. Member's feelings.—(Hear.) Colonel TORRENS designated the course pursued as most extraordinary, particularly at a period when most ins portant business was fixed to come before the House. The SPEAKER interposed, and observed that it must l i e admitted the course pursued by the Hon. Member (Mr. Gisborne) was entirely in accordance with the rules of the House, and the complaint now seemed to be that the rules were not always put in operation. After the explanation that had been given, he put it to the House whether it was necessary to prolong the discussion. petition preeenite and to b e presented by Mr. printed. A. Johnston wa ordered l to lie onthe table Mr. A. JOHNSTON presented a petition fro u Kil dare against the punishment of death iu cases of forgery. Mr. LENNARD, in supporting the prayer of the peti tion, referred to a statement published in a provincial piper, from which it appeared that a banker in Suffolk had actually procured 5001. from an hospital in Bury, in consideration of his foregoing a prosecution for forgery. Mr. J. BROWN presented two petitions from parishes in Mayo, in favour of the Government plan of education in Ireland. BREACH OF PRIVILEGE. Mr. O'CONNELL would take that opportunity of ad verting to a breach of privilege in the Times newspaper, which he had brought before the House on a previous evening. What he had now to state would create no delay in the business of the House, and he felt anxious to tuentio■ it. The House would recollect that the com plaint which he had made was in publishing in the Times newspaper, as his speech, sentences that had never been uttered by hint. At that periad the Speaker had been pleased to intimate to him front the Chair, that if he was disposed to make any motion on the subject of a breach intentionally committed, he ought to throw aside his private feelings. To that decision he (Mr. O'C.) entirely bowed. He bad made inquiries on the subject, from which he was perfectly convinced that not the smallest blame attached to the conductors of the newspaper in which the speech he had complained of appeared. Nor bad they been guilty of any neglect. lie had, also seen the person who had reported the speech, and he hid most satisfactorily explained the subject -to him in such a way as that he would venture to pledge himself to the House that no disrespect whatever was intended towards it or any body else. He was quite satisfied with what had been stated to him, and should press the matter no further. Sir H. PARNELL had a complaint to make of a para graph which appeared in the Morning Chronicle, which stated that they " understood it was the general im pression of the Committee appointed to inquire into the disturbances in the Queen's County, that those distur bances arose in consequence of the authorities impro perly executing their duty." The Committee considering such a statement wholly unfounded, had come to a re solution that the statement in the Morning Chronicle was a gross misrepresentation of facts, and had r. quired him or the Chairman of that Committee to communicate that resolution to the House for the purpose of contradicting iu the most decided manner the statements that had been put forth. Ile (Mr. H. Parnell) would undertake to say that the evidence which had been adduced before the Commit tee, would not warrant any such statement. Sir R. INGLIS considered that the R;glit Hon. Baronet in merely mentioning the subject to the House, had done either too much or too little. Some proposi 'ion should either have been brou g ht forward, for bringing the printer of the Paper to the bar of the House, ,or no notice should have been taken of it. Sir IL PARNELL, as Chairman of the Committee, did not feel himself called upon to pursue the course sug r,,ested by the Hon. Baronet below him, considering he had done his duty in putting the House in possession of the eolut:om Mr. BRISCOE deprecated the time of the House ilistillutiou. occupied in such irregular discussions, thinking, it bard fs fi to o L t oe n cid s io e t ti v ,y e t r oh a tel l upon lion.
