This Society APPROPRIATES the WHOLE of thePRO FITS to the reduction of the Premiums of its I\l , mbers, and this is UNDIMINISHED by AGENCY or COMMISSION, the business of this Society being conducted without incurring that expense. The effect of the principle of 'Mutual Assur ance, so carried out, is shown by the abatement of FORTY per Cent. declared for the ensuing year. upon the Premiums of Members of Five Years' Aanding, and which abatement has been computed on data justifying the expectation of the conti nuance of art equal rats of abatement, at least, throughout the remaining term of life. This abatement of Forty per cent., the amount being laid out in a new Assurance, is equivalent to a bonus of one-third of the amount of the existing Policy.

Messrs. S. and B. SOLONIONS, Opticians and AuriAs, during a professional experience of thirty years, have. had ample op ortu raffia of verifing that the Organs of Sight and Hearing are sym pathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that when the termer becomes imperfect, the sense of hearing becomes rapidly dull—this fact is admitted by Scientific Authorities, and must be observable by many thousands of individuals thus circum etaneed—whioh is deserving the Public's most serious attention. The Messrs. Solomon., with a viow to remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch of iclence, have succeeded in efltcting, for Imp rfeet Vision, a most scientific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a Pre ventive and Cure for Deafness; they have invented an Operative Voice Conductor,upon a very small construction, not perce; tible ; it requires no holding, and the individual immediately becomes one of the party in the general conversation. By those important disco veries not only is defective Vision brought to nsture, but the sense of Hearing 4 restored to its original acuteness ; those lenses ere se eenstructed and adapted to weak aid imperfect eyesight, upon such scientific principles, umbined with the long extensive experience of the Messrs. Solumons, that they will he found to effect an extent of relief which will far exeeed their utmost and Mist S2ll - expectations. On placing those lenses before imperfect Vision, either by Jay or candle ligh., every object becomes clear and dis. tinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. Tbo Messrs. Solomon. have in their possession, WITHOUT ONE EXCEPTION, Spectacles and Ear Instruments of every kind, which are of to the Public by other individuals, to print out the GU ',priority of their improvements over all others. The patronage of Nobility and Gentry, and reomnrnendationsof the principal Oculists, Plush:liana, and Surgeons in London, and through Great Britain, u Well as on tho Continent, would be toe numerous for insertion. The Messrs. Solomon, are anxious that the public shou'd not con. found them with persons of the same name, it being admitted by professional gentlemen of the highest character, aud may be ob. served by any individual, that their newly-invented Spectacles and Operative Voice Cm:Wasters for deafness, surpass anything of the Lied yet put before tie e public, they request attention to the first part of their names and address, SO, APsemarle-street, Piccadilly, and iii, Cheapslde.

MANY SCIENTIFIC and MEDICAL GENTLEMEN have signified their approbation of the CHUNK PATENT STOVE. E XPERIENCE has proved there is not a .4 situation in which any Stove could be made to answer, that the CHUNK PATENT STOVE may not be plac , sd in to act satisfactorily, at a less cost and with much less inconveni ence than any other, with the certainty that it will merit ap probation. An extraordinary large quantity of the Chunk Stoves have been sold, and upwards of one thousand of them delight their possessors, by prsducing the most salubrious warmth ever yet obtained. It is possible, out of the immense quantity which have been sold, some may be improperly fixed ; the Stoves would then, no doubt, be blamed for not acting, although the fault does not rest with them, but in the fixing. In such cases (if there are any) application should be made to Messrs. RIBBON and BURTON f',:r proper directions, which are very simple, and, when attended to. the Stoves are certain to give the same satisfactory proofs, which they have already given in upwards of one thousand instances, that they far excel all others in point of simplicity, safety, cleanliness, comfort, and economy. To prevent that delay from being experienced, which with much regret ti ippon and Burton acknowledge many have been subjected to, arrangements have been made for manufacturing five hundred Stoves weekly—the orders will, therefore, be executed with nmch greater dispatch than hitherto.

STOCKHOLM. —The Chamber of the citizens adopted on the 25th a resolutio❑ to admit the public to hear the de bates in the same manner as the other Chambers, because the want of publicity has hitherto given occasion to many inaccurate reports, for instance, in the Swensha Minerves. It is supposed that the King's Speech at the opening of the Sessicn will necessarily give occasion to much discussion in the Diet. FRANIFoRT, JAN. 30.—The question of the II inove rian Constitution has again attract, d much attention in consequence of the Royal Proclamation. If the hope bad not hitherto been given up that, by reciprocal concessions, an arrangement between the Government and the opposing Corporations and towns was possible, people are now fully persuaded that such an arrangement is impossible. This conviction has excited a painful sensation among all classes of society there. Thu adherents of the abolished Consti tution have now no resource left but the Diet of the Confederation. OSNABURG, JAN. 30.—1 t has been reported here to day that all tho3e who have not paid their taxes will have sol diers quartered on them This report induced many per sons immediately to pay their taxes. No doubt there will be found some who will submit to receive some soldiers, in order to proclaim in all the newspapers how the citizens, in spite of the publication of the law of 16th November, 1839, cannot resolve to pay the taxes, and must sec how several of their fellow-citizens (perhaps the customary number of 400) have been evidently compelled to lodge each three or four soldiers.—Hamburg Papers, Feb. 7.

Hazlitt has a remark, exemplifying human inconsist , enev, to the effect that there are persons who are disap pointed and displeased by the exhibition of the very virtues which they had most desired to see exercised. These people (he says) do not like you a bit the better for realizing the good opinion they always enter tained of you." The conduct of some writers on the Liberal side, daily as well as weekly, would seem to indicate that the remark is founded, not on fan tastic speculation, but on a close observance of mankind. The parties in question appear to think perpetual Pgree men,. upon one sul,ject tedious, and after months of con. currence seek excitement in dissen , ion and conap!air.t. They invert the maxim of Mrs. Malaprop, and ima gine that it is always better to end "with a little aversion." They are so jealous of leadership, that they must pick an occasion of quarrelling with it—" net in hate, but all in honour !" Thus, because Lord J. Russell has intimated an opinion that the House could not go on for ever resorting to commitmeLts as the only means of asserting and .maintaining it s pri vileges— bec.u , ,e he stated th t he had bald a conference with the Lord Chanceller, and suggested that a declara tory law of a complete and comprehensive character might, if obtainable from the House of Lords, prevent future difficulties without a sacrifice of independence or principle—the Noble Lord is a , ssiled in set terms, and charged with " running away" and " irresolution "—with misleading his own fiiends and not knowing his own mind ! (From the Standard) The eternal case of the .• martyr Thorogood," the coolest and most business like sufferer for conscience sake to he found in the whole Martyrology, occupied the House of Commons last night during a considerable part of its sitting. The wretched f tree of this man's mock self-devotion had been long before expressed in his correspondence with Mr. Boykett. But Mr. Thomas Dun comb,- did not think it rash to bring the delusion once more under the scorn of all rational and honest men, and Messrs. Baines, end flume, and Hawes, and the rest of the Sectarian knot, made the customary speskehes. Lord J. Russell treated the martyr with little respect, and Sir S. Lushington gave a frank and a very amusing history of the several steps of vexatious pettifogging by which Thorogood has mad e hi s way to the goal of his wishes, the jail of Chelmsford. If we had any inalignant feeling toxards Dissen ters, such feeling would be amply gratified by last night's exhibition, inched by the whole history of the " Thom good persecution ;" for never was th.re a case of more transparent hypocrisy and fra u d, or one b etter calculated to draw disgrace upon all who are concerned in getting it up and patronizing it. ( From the Courier.) Tie discussion in the 1 - I,:trie of Commons last night, on the affair which is generally known as the " Monteagle Joh," exhibited the Ministers in their usual position of shuffling and weakness. Mr. Liddell moved for the papers relating to this transaction, and took occasion to say that the matter, as it a' present stood unexplained. bad very much the air of a Ministerial job. The circumstance of the simul taneous retirement of Sir .John Newport from the office of Comptrolkr of the Exchequer, with a 'pension of one thousand A year. ard the appointment of Llrd M-nteagle to the office so vacated, could not fail to give rise to the suspicion that the arrangement was a contrivance for placing the late Chancellor of the Exchequer in a sinecure, or an office which was nearly a sinecure, of 2,000/. a year. T o thi s c h arge t h e present Chancellor cif the Exchequer attempted an explanation, which, without presuming to say whether it was satisfac tory or not to the House, we are quite sure will not be considered satisfactory by the country. ACTS OF PARLIAMENT FOR JOINT-STOCK COM ra NIES.—A new point was decided yesterday, by the Se lect Committee on Petitions, which may affect many Joint stoak Companies applying- for Bills in Parliament. A joint stock Insurance Company proved the insertion of the regular policies in the London Gazette, but declined to offer any proof of similar instructions in mny other paper, on the ground that as it took no land and affected no particular locality, so further notices were not called for by the standing order, which is in the following terms, " Such notice s s hall b published in three successive weeks in the months of October and Novem ber, or eiteier of them, in the London, Edinburgh, or Dubin Gazette, and in some one and the same Newspaper of the said county in which the city, town, or lands to hick such Bill relates shall be situate." Mr. Northhouse, Parliamentary Agent, contended that in a Bill fcr powers merely to sue and be sued, there was no necessity for any further notices, than those in the London Gazette, though it was the prevailing practice to give them. Mr. Greene, the Chairman of the Sub-Committee, No. 4, conferred with Mr. Aglionby, the Chairman of the Sub-Committee, No. 3, after which the Committee deailed that the view taken by Mr. Northhouse was correct, and the Standing Orders were declared to be com plied with. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. (THIS EVENING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock. Mr. CORBALLY, the new member for Meath, returned in tire room of Mr. Morgan O'Connell, took the oaths and his seat. A great number of private Bills were read a first time, or advanced a stage. CORN LAWS. Mr. OSWALD presented a petition from the Cor poration of Glasgow, for the repeal of the Corn-laws. CHURCH EXTENSION. • Mr. PAKINGTON presented petitions from places in Derbyshire, in favour of Church extension, and against the continuance of the Parliamentary Grants for the support of the College of Maynooth. Sir E. WILMOT presented a petition from a place in Warwick in f L ivour of Church Extension. E. KNATCH BULL presented a petition from Ashford to the snme effeet. CHURCH PATRONAGE. Mr. ELLIOTT presented petitions from places in Scotland against the intrusion of ministers into parishes without the approbation of the parishioners. THE SHERIFFS OF MIDDLESEX. Mr. DISRAELI presented a petition from a place in Middlesex, complaining of the imprisonment of the Sieriffs, and praying for their liberation. THE , CASE OF THOROGOOD. Sir GEORGE STRICKLAND presented a peti tion from a place in Yorkshire,praying for the release of John Thorogood, and against the jurisdiction of the Ecclesiastical Courts. Mr. 13ANNERNIAN presented a petition from Aberdeen, against the present system of Church patronage. Sir T. FREEMANTLE presented a petition from Edinburgh, praying for Church extew-ion. Sir J. GRAHAM presented a petition from the Moderator and Presbytery of Glasgow, against the in trusion of non-acceptabl e ministers into parishes in Scot hind ; also a petition from a parish in the county of Pcm-, broke, complaining of the want of religious instruction, and praying for increAsed Church accommodation. Also a petition from a lorp number of Cotton-spinners and weavers in Cornwall, pra3 - ing, for an alteration in the Corn-laws, and for the repeal of the duty on raw cotton. Mr. WARD presn!cd a petition from a parish in Essex, praying for th e re l ease of John Thorogood, and the abolition of Chureh-rates. Also a petition from Sheffield, complaining of the rWsrepresenta:ions of Socialism, and prayin g that Robert Owen might be examined before a Committe e of the House. LITHOGRAPHED PETITIONS. The SPEAKER wished to call the attention of the House to the fact that a petition which had been pre sented was lithographed. Now it was against the orders of the Howe that any printed petitions should be pre seated, and the wished to draw the attention of the House to this circumstance, as he understood that or late several lithographed petitions had been presented. Mr. FRESHFIELD said, the Committee on Peti tions would be glad to receive some authority from the House as to the manner in which they were to deal with these petitions. They were frequently referred to the Committee, and they could not make any ob jections to them there, unless the House would be pleased to give some directions on the subject. He would suggest that the House should direct the Corn. mittee not to report on lithographed petitions. The SPEAKER thought it would be better that it should be henceforth distinctly understood that the House would consider lithographed petitions to be printed petitions.—( Hear, hear.) INTRUSION OF MINISTERS (SCOTLAND.) Mr. GORDON presented several petitions from va rious places in Aberdeenshire, against the intrusion of Ministers in Scotland. The petitioners also stated that they objected to the summary rejection by the Presby tory of Ministers presented by the Patron without trial, and prayed for an alteration in the laws regulating Church patronage. CORN-LAWS. Mr. VILLIERS presented a petition from Dun fermline, praying for a total repeal of the Corn-laws. Mr. LITTON presented a petition from Millers of Ireland, against the Importation of Corn from Ireland Bill. THE SHERIFF Sir E. SUGDEN gave notice that he wou:d today or tomorrow put a question to Lord J. Russell as to the further detention of Mr. Sheriff Evans, and should not that gentleman he released before, he should move on Friday that the Resolution requiring the repayment of the 600/. to Messrs. Hansard should be rescinded. TITHE COMMUTATION ACT AMEND- NEM' BILL. Sir It. INGLIS asked if this Bill were to be passed to a second reading this evening, as it had no t long been printed, and there had been no opportunity cf spreading it through the country ? Sir ED WARD KNATCLIBULL said that it was his intention to press the Bill to a second reading that night. PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS. Mr. HODSON wished to know whether the Post office had made any regulation with respect to the free transmission of any part of the Parliamentary Papers, and if so, what part of them. Mr. R. STEWART said that the arrangement bad been already stated by his Wght lion. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The SPEAKER said that the Billsan'l Votes would go free, provided they were put into the box connected with the House. VAGRANTS REMOVAL BILL. On the motion of Mr. ROBERT PALMER the Vagrants Removal Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Monday nest. TITHE COMMUTATION ACTS AMEND MENT BILL. Sir E. KNA.TCHI3ULL moved the second read inK of the Tithe Commutation Acts Amendment MI. In this Bill there were two or three claims which might be modified in the Committee. He imant especially those relating to hops and market grounds. He wished to do every thing to forward the intentions which the Lngi,dature had in passing the Tithes Commutatioh Act. And one of his principal objects in the present measure was to prevent tithe from being taken in kiwi, when the rent charge was fixed, that was to say, between the apportionment and the commutation. Mr. DIVETT was decidedly opposed to the Bill. It would be impossible to dovetail an Act of 74 dis tinct clauses into the six dieferent Acts which had been passed upon this subject, without producing the greatest doubt and confusion. The first Tithe Act was the Gth William IV., and then there was the Act of the Ist V ctoria, which bad been follieved by three or four others on the some sullect. The Ho nourable Baronet said that his object was to prevent the taking of tithe in kind between the apportionment and the commutation. Now that might be a very good object, but it would not ba attained under the proposed Bill, without great ex pense and inconvenience, and it would materially stand in the way of the justice of the appportionment. He f'eund that the expenses of the present Tithe Corn mission amounted to 60,0001. a year, and he believed that the present measure would tend considerably to in crease that. The Right Hon. Baronet, in introducing his Bill, had talked of the inconveniences of the present system, and of the great difficulty of collecting tithes. He (Mr. Divett) believed, however, that those diffi culties existed only in a very few instances, and that there was a general disposition in the country to enter into voluntary agreements on subjects of the kind. The Tithe Commissioners said they had reason to ex press their satisfaction at the working of the 8,11, and there was therefore no reason to come to the House for its alteration when appeals were of rare occurrence, and acquiescence was the general rule. If that was the opinion of the Tithe Commissioners why allow a Bill of this sort to pass, which would materially alter the Act, and make that which was already extremely difficult to understand, a great deal more difficult. He contended it was not sufficient for any Member to say the Tithe Commissioners concurred in the Bill. If this were the case the Bill ought to be introduced under their auspices, and they should have taken upon themselves the responsibility of any changes they thought might be required. One clause only in their report could justify this supposition, though in another place they said " the hardship of collecting tithe in kind had been strongly pressed upon them." He bed no doubt of it ; but the time of the House should not be taken up in legisliating on individual cases of' grievance' He contended that the intention of the framers of the Bill had been fully carried out, and that there was no occasion for the House again interfering. And having stated what were his objections to the Bill, and knowing that vast alterations mus t b e ma de in Committee, he thought it had better be stopped at the second reading, than allowed to go into Committee, where it would probably pass in a state that would be prejudicial to the interests it affected. He therefore moved, that the Bill be read that day six months. Mr. FOX MAULE could assure his Hon. Friend that this Bill had been introduced with the full concur rence of the Tithe Commissioners.—(Hear, hear.) When this measure was first proposed to the House, he had referred to the Tithe Commissioners on the subject, and he had this day gone through the Bill with cue of those gentlemen, who had told him. Speaking not only for himself, but his colleagues when he said that the Bill had their entire concurrence as calculated to relieve them from a great portion of their labours, and to make the operation of the Act much less expensive. —(Hear, hear.) The object of this was to tff:ct a commutation of tithes into a rent-cbarge, as speedily as possible. It was quite true that in most cases this had been done on the voluntary principle, but still there were many cases in which the old custom of taking tithes in kind still remained ; and unless some measure were taken to remedy this inconve nience the power conferred by this custom might be exercise n ost vexatiously. It was quite true that the clause had been introduced by the Right Hon. Gentle man opposite, and he did not think that this measure could have come more effectually before the House if the Tithe Con.missioners brought it forward on their own authority. On the contrary the Tithe Commissioners, he said that they would take edvantege of this Bill to introduce certain ne cessary amendments. His Honourable Friend had cemplained of the great number of amended Bills on this subject ; it would be a matter of surprise if such had not been the case, because it would be a vroeder if in a great measure, such as that of the Tithe Commutation they should have been enabled to have introduced a per fect Bill at once. Reeervine therefore to himself the right of entering into a fall explana . ion of this Bill clause by clause in Committee, he should vote for its second reading. Sir E. KIslA TCH BULL was quite ready to accede to the proposition of a select Committee. He hoped the Hon. Mernherfor Exeter would allow the Bill to be read a s•cond time in order that it might be sent to a Committee upstairs. Mr. DtVETT intimated that he would perseveie with his amendment. house accordingly divided, and the numbers were _ For the second reading 77 Against it Majority The Bill was then read a second ti me . (LEFT SITTING.) flAt the Duchess of Sutherland's assembly on Monday evening not one-halt of the company invited could gain access, in consequence of the immense number of waggons, omnibuses, carts, and cabs blocking up all the neighbouring streets. EDUCATION. Mr. RORSM A N (we understood) gave notice that on the motion of Sir R. H. Inglis relative to an exten sion of the means of instruction in connection with the Established Church, he should move an amendment, to the effect that an inquiry should be instituted as to whet:.er the defect arose from inadequacy, or misapplication of the means now possessed. FREEMEN. Mr. KELLY moved for returns of the number of freemen burgesses intitled to vote for Members o' Par liament,—Agreed to.—The Learned Gentleman post poned in the meantime his motion relative to the sub ject. THE SHERIFFS. Mr. Alderman THOMSON gave notice for Friday next that he should move, " That the authority of this House having been vindicated, it is the opinion of this House that its privileges and dignity will be best sustained by the immediate discharge of the Sheriffs. And he should move this as t.;!e first order, it being a question of privilege.—(N o , no , an d a l aug h . ) The SPEAKER begged to observe that the Hon. Member would have no right of precedence.—(Hear.) Mr. EWART postponed till Friday the petition re lative to capital punishments. HER MAJESTY'S MARRIAGE. Lord J. RUSSELL gave notice that on Friday he should move an address to her Majesty, congratulating her Majesty on her auspiciont marriage.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") _ _ IRISH CLERGY. Mr. F. SHAW asked what progress was being made in the liquidation of the arrears due to the Irish clergy ? Lord MORPETH said, a dividend of two shillings, in addition to the former one of five shillings, in the pound, would, he trusted, soon be paid ; and be hoped the whole business might be settled by Easter. Mr. GOUL BU RN said he had received information that it was the intention of the Irish Government to make some alteration in the Statute requiring the celi bacy of the Fellows of Trinity College, Dublin. He wished to invite whether it was intended to alter the Statute prospectively, or to extend the privilege to the existing Fellows ? Lori MORPETH said that representations have been made by the governing body of the University, which at first had the effect of inclin ing the Irish Government to alter the Statute as regards the existing Junior Fellows. But representa tions had subsequently been made by other parties, which make it appear that the subject should not be interfered with without further consideration. THE PRIVILEGE QUESTION. Sir WILLIAM FOL LETT begged to ask whether it was the intention of the Government to introduce either into that or the other House of Parliament any Bill respecting the publication of the votes and other proceedings of the House of Commons. Lard J. RUSSELL said he was not prepared at that moment to give. Ito answer to the question. AFFAIRS OF EGYPT. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON wished to put a ques tion to the Noble Lord, the Secretary for Foreign Af fairs, and be was induced to do so on account of the alarm which was raisA ill the minds of those interests—thp commerce of Egypt—in consequ!nce of the warlike preparations which the Pacha was making. The ques tion was, whether those preparations r. - ere likely to place in hazard British property in Egypt. Lord PALMERSTON said it was impossible to state what the Pacha of ' Egypt intended to do. All that he (Lord Palmerston) knew at present was that the Pacha had transferred part of the crews from his own ships to those of hisSavereign. CHINA. Sir R. PEEL asked whether it mes the Noble Lord's intention to give information respecting our relations with China. Lord PALMERSTON said the papers moved for would be laid on the table as soon ss they were ready. GREECE. Mr. EMERSON TENNENT asked whether any information had been received respecting a con spiracy in Greece. _ Lord PALMERSTON said that a conspiracy had been discovered, hut lie could not undertake to specify the particular obP.ct of it. Mr. TENNE NT then asked whether it was true that extensive arreEts had taken place in the lonian Islands? Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that information to that effect had been received, but the despatch was not sufficiently detailed. ATHLONE BRIDGE. Sir F. FRENCH put a question to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, respecting the repairs of the bridge of Athlone, but the Right Hon. Gentleman's answer WdB not distinetl3 heard. THE SHERIFFS OF LONDON. Sir E. SUGD EN;;;I:ed, first, whether it was in tended to discharge the Sheriffs from custody ; and sr condiy, whether the Nob!e Lord (John Russell) hi tended to bring in an Act of Parliament to &fine the privileges of the House in future cases? Lor:1 JOHN ICLSSELTwi - snOt prepared to agree to any motion for the liberation of the Sheriffs, and he could not at present answer the other question. CHURCH-RATES—CASE OF JOHN THORO- GOOD. Mr. T. DUNCOM BE rose to call the attention of the House to the petition of John Thorogood, a pri soner in the county gaol of Essex, for the non-payment of 5s- 6d. Church -rate, and to move for leave to bring in a Bill, to relieve from the pay ment of Church -rates, that portion of her Majesty's subjects who conscientiously dissent from the rites or doctrines of the Established Church. He had already called the attention of the House to the case of Mr. Thorogood last Session ; and on that occasion the House, eller having heard the ease, had resolved, that it would be the duty of the House at the earliest possible period of the Session, to make such altera tions in the existing laws relative to the payment of Church-rates as will prevent similar violence being inflicted on such of her Majesty's subjects as differed from tits. Established Church. It was in order that that resolution should not be a dead letter, that he begged to cad the attention cf the House to the extraordinary crlse in question. Mr. Thcrogeod -bad been a prisoner in the county gaol of Essex for the non-payruent of ss. 6d. Church-rate for the last thirteen months. Ha Iseliavod that a more charitable, kind, and benevolent isidivichut. than that Dissenter did not exist.—(Hear, hear.; He was aware that all those who had any concern in the elections of the county of Essex, !mew that Mr Thorogood had been a very active political partizan, but against his benevolent disposition or moral charac ter, lie believed that not one wo.d could be offered by way of disparagement. He did not mean to occupy time by going into any of those disputed points with regard to the law for the payment of Church-rates, nor would he enter into an examination of the nature of those Ecclesiastical Courts. which he thought every one would admit were opposed to the spirit of this free country. What he wanted was some relief for Mr. Thorogood, or for those who might hereafter be simi larly situated. He believed ...bat individuals who ob jected to the payment of Church-rates, might he divided into two classes—those who belonged to the Established Church, but who t1;ou 8 lit that the revenues of that e Church were amplyasking hetste. claim, it s ao t.. tn i o l l bsdeu c hr hel l ino e d,nebo n ug t le,ptbvirel nomafn t ptos o aa:Gri cxntazinhetl,s d ‘pidi v e lolpifei f nart r .thor a wotp y ahi etsrpehl discharged t e hygshwhaaaarrooptrg e dturiae t helel pensos of its establishment ; and the other class s was composed of those Dissenters who had conscien tious objections to contribute to the worship, or rather to the ornaments or a worship, which was not t rn i ei l el e id i e r );,ut t ow n. oamsk e isions d should 1 s t l o t a u e . propose, pr o Mr.vrnoogtflot e o t d b fi e r i s l first from confinement ; and ll individuals who should hereafter conscientiously dis sent front the rights or doctrines of the Established Church should not be subject to imprisonment for the non-p tyment of those rates. But, in order to entitle those individuals to avail themselves of that provision of the Bill, be would require that they should make a declaration that they conscientiously dissented from the doetrires of the Established Church. He would move that they should go before a Magistrate, and nhke the following declaration :—" I, A. B do so lemnly declare that I am not of the communion of the Church of Eagland as established, and in my con science I do dissent from its rites and ceremonies, and I do solemnly declare that in my objecting to pay Church-rates I ens ae.uated by no pecuniary mo tives, but by conscientious ones alone." On an individual making that declaration before a Magistrate, the Magistrate should be obliged to furnish him with a certificate, declaring that he was a Dissenter, and within three years of his holding that certificate be should be free from any action, citation, suit, or sum mons brought against him for the non-payment of Churcl.-rates. That having been done, he (Mr. Duecombe) thought it was but fair that the non-sup porters of the Established Church should take no part in the proceedings of any vestry meetings convened for the purpose of makin,g a Church-rate, or that they should be connected with a vestry meeting called for the purpose of considering any (v.:est:on connected with the Esta blished Church.
