GENTLER:EN, As it is the wish of a considerable portion of the Senate that another Member should be returned to represent them in the next Parliament, as a body identified with the Church of England in doctrine and `discipline, and as such more especially protesting against the corruption and usurpation of the Church of Rome, and as they have earnestly requested me to allow myself to be brought for ward for that purpose, my feelings being in accordance with theirs, I have consented to answer to that call. I feel it a duty to shrink from no opportunity of testifying my earnest desire to aid in pre serving the integrity of the Church of Englanl, and to resist all con nexion with and cenoeulon to Roraanism, to oppose the endowmerrt of the Boorish Church in Ireland or eisewhete, as well all atte m Zta to establish an intercourse with the Court ofßome. The union of Church ant State I consoler essential to the pros perity of this kingdom, for I cannot conceive that the blessing of God will rest upon a nation whose Goverment does not by its laws and institutions do all in its power to acktowledge and uphold his honour and glory, and the welfare of his Church. lam most earnest in ray wish for the extension of the Churcl of England, as regards increasing the number of bishopa and clergy, the formation of schools in connexion with the Church, and the providing of Church accom modatios. Deeply attached as lam to ha-, I deprecate strongly all dissent or separation from her communion and will never willingly do anything to promote or perpetuate it. I am unwilling to pledge myself as to isle exact votes I shall give upon prAnticular measures as yet not full: under my notice, I can only give you my principles as a guarantte for my actions. My po. litir,al principles are what were called Cooservative ; unfortunately, t) - _,at name may now express many digerent, and even opposite opinions. I highly disapprove of the wag in which the repeal of the corn-laws was carried through Parliament, and have no confidence in that measure, as I think so great a risk to most important in terests of this country, ought not to have been incurred, without first testing the probable effects by more moderate measures. I have no past services to refer to, as a recommendation to your notice nor can I give you any proof of my worthiness to receive your confidence, than the assurance that it is my stern determination to act, by the help of God, solely and unflrichingly upon religious prin ciples, rejecting all doctrine of expodieney, deeming that what is in trinsically wrong can never be justified by any circumstances what ever. I will now conclude, by assuring, you that, should you finally elect me your representative, I will spare no exertions to uphold your best interests, as identified with the Church of England and the welfare of this country. I remain, Gentlemen, your obedient, humble servant, FEILDING. Committee Room, British Hotel, Cockspur-street, June 17, 1847, CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY ELECTION.

They also act chiefly, if not exclusively, on the comforts said luxuries of the people. In commenting on the periodical returns of the revenue, an increase or defi ciency in the Excise is generally looked upon as indicative of the national prosperity, of the state of the working classes, of the great bulk of the population. When trade is depressed, when there is a season ofadver sity and high prices, when the necessaries of life ab sorb the greater portion of the poor man's resources, little remains for superfluities, and consequenly there i 3 an immediate diminution in the receipts derivable from that source ; on the contrary, an improved and healthier state of trade and commerce, or a greater de gree of activity, is marked by a corresponding in crease. Persons of fixed income will have the same description of diet whatever may be the state of affairs ; it is the man who earns his daily bread by his own exertions, in whatever trade or business he may be engaged, that is obliged to yield to the passing storm, to dispense with the com forts, and perhaps even to submit to a reduction of the very necessaries of life. If, then, there were no other reason adverse to this odious de scription of taxation, it would be sufficient that it falls more heavily on the great body of the people, and lea3s to greater privations than any other species of impost that could be devised, save only the atrocious bread tax, from which we have happily, and we trust for ever, been freed. The Customs duties have also the effect of in juring the working classes. At first sight i may appear that the most just and natural mode of levying the necessary funds for the national expenditure is on the production of other lands, and perhaps a small and moderate duty on articles of . mere luxury, if not of so exorbitant a character as to encourage smuggling, or greatly to diminish the general consumption, might be the most eligible mode of collecting the revenue next to a di rect tax on property. But, on closer investigation, it will be found that the heavy import duties, by prevent ing us from receiving so large a quantity of those productions, and shutting them out from our ports, practically close the markets that would otherwise be opened to our manufactures. We are unable to exchange goods, and they have no other means of pay mg for what they require and would gladly accept from us. The removal of these restrictions would, therefore, have the effect of extending our commerce throughout all lands, of promoting feelings of universal friend ship. New wants would arise with the means of sa tisfying them, and those nations which were to a certain extent dependent on each other would be very unlikely to permit any senseless or ridiculous quar rels to intrude so as to disturb that peace and tranquil lity, the preservation of which would be so important to both. It has also been proved, by experience, that a heavier rate of taxation does not produce a corre sponding increase in revenue. Witness the steady improvement that has taken place in that department of late years, notwithstanding the great reductions that have taken place, and that chiefly on the articles, the duties on which had been materially di minished. There is, however, one description of direct taxa tion that is open to very great and well-founded ob jections, and which should be immediately abolished. We mean the window-tax, which, by preventing the free access of light and air, is, in the highest degree, prejudicial to the public health. The sanatory con dition of the country has at length attracted the attention of the Government and. of the. Legisla ture. Every means are now about to be used for the preservation of that greatest blessing ; the people have awakened from that torpor and inactivity which so long prevailed; they will no longer wil lingly see malaria and pestilence breeding at their very thresholds from impurities that might easily be removed. Can it be supposed that in this improved state of feeling a tax, which it is admitted has a most injurious effect in abridging that which is absolutely necessary to health, which in its nature is incom patible with improved sanatory regulations, should be tolerated ? It is for the people them selves to say whether they will rest contented with the present state of things. A golden moment is at hand, an opportunity which suffered to escape may not again be afforded to them for seven long years. If they avail themselves to the fullest extent of their power, a long course of prosperity and happi ness is before them, but if they are negligent and apathetic, if they exercise their franchise without care or forethought, they will only have themselves to blame for the results, however painful they may be. We have received Constantinople journals to the st inclusively. The Journal de Constantinople of that day repeats its assurance of an arrangement being concluded between the Porte and Persia, and that all that remained to be settled was the delimita tion as regards the wandering tribes of the frontier. The same journal states that favourable accounts had been received of the expedition against the rebels of Kurdistan. The rebel chief, BEDERHAN BEY, is stated to have been abandoned by most of his par sans, and to have shut himself up in a fort with only 200 to 300 men. A Constantinople letter of the 2d states that the Cabinet of Vienna has given its decision as to the dispute between the Porte and Greece entirely in fa vour of the former, but has recommended, as a con cession, that when M. MUSSURIIS shall have received the apologies of King OTno and M. COLETTI, he shall withdraw from Athens, and another Ambassador be appointed. The Berlin Diet, at its sitting on the 12th, decided upon the rejection of an income-tax, which was pro posed as a substitute for the duty on slaughter-houses and grinding of corn, by a majority of 311 against 204. An amendment by Count D'Ausust, proposing that in lieu of the duty on slaughter-houses and grinding, there should be a new classification of the taxes in existence, which would relieve the lower classes and increase the charges upon the higher, was also rejected by a majority of 348 to 232. A Berlin letter of the 14th states that Baron ALEXANDER DE HUMBOLDT was then 80 much better that there was every reason to hope that he would be shortly restored to good health. At a meeting of the Senate and Burghers of the free town of Bremen, held on the 11th, to take into consideration the mode of providing for the expenses of the new and extensive public buildings about to be erected, it was resolved that the financial deputation should be authorised to contract a loan of a sum of 1,000,000 thalers. A letter from Vienna of the 12th states that nego tiations have been opened between the Governments of Austria and Prussia, for the purpose of establish ing closer commercial relations between the former and the States of the Zollverein. The post of Prefect of the Congregation of Rites at Rome having become vacant by the death of Car dinal MICABA, the PorE has appointed Cardinal Liam LAMBRUSCHINI, Bishop of Sabini and Secretary of Briefs to his Holiness, to fill the place. A letter from Leghorn, dated the 9th, says— "A great number of petitions have been presented to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, praying for a represen tative system. The Grand Duke received the petitions graciously, and promised to do all in his power. The new Council of Censorship for the press is favourably looked upon by the people, as the members are men of great public worth. On the 29th ult. the people of Leghorn, Pisa, and Sienna, celebrated with great rejoic ings the anniversary of the famous battle of Logrono by the league of Lombardy against the Emperor of Germany. At these places everything passed off quietly; but at Lucca, where the anniversary was also kept, the young men of the place having sung patriotic songs, and uttered cries of Long lire Italy! long live Pius IX!' and made bonfires on the hills, they were dispersed by the gendarmes, and several of them were arrested. Whilst at Florence Queen Christina visited the magnificent palace of the late Count de Saint•-Leu, ex-King of Hol land, and is said to have charged a banker of Florence to purchase it for her." Madrid papers of the 13th and 14th have arrived. In the Gageta of the 13th we find a decree autho rising the sale, by auction, of the property belonging to the four military orders of knighthood, and to that of St. John of Jerusalem. The Gacela of the 14th publishes a decree, enjoining the law officers of the Crown in different parts of Spain to prosecute the authors of writings in which the right of the succession to the Crown of the Infanta LUISA, the Queen-sister, may be called in question. The Duke of San Loavizo has been suspended lin his post of Commandant of the Halberdiers by the Marquis of MALEPICA, who will, it is said, soon make way for General SERRANO, who is to be created a Grandee of Spain. The Heraldo states that the Minister of Finance has signed an order for a payment, on account, to be made to the poorer classes of the State creditors, all of whom are in the greatest distress. The bills drawn by General CONCHA for the pay of the army of intervention in Portugal have been, it is said, dishonoured. The intelligence from Portu - gal contained in these papers is to the effect, that SA DE BANDEIRA had obtained a suspension of hostilities until the 10th, that the Marquis of LOULE was expected to arrive in Lisbon with the submission of the Junta on the 9th, and that Brigadier REnocno was attempting to excite a Miguelite insurrection in the province of Beira. According to a letter from Catalonia, Brigadier BAXERAS, chief of the expedition that captured TRISTANY and Ros D'EROLES, has been assassinated. The Three per Cents. closed at 31 for cash; the Four per Cents. at 18; the Five per Cents. at 18; and the Debt, without interest, at 54. After the Bourse, the Three per Cents. were done at 34 for paper. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. On Thursday the debate on the report of the Com mittee on the Girardin affair took place in the Chamber of Deputies The Chamber authorised the prosecution of M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN by the Chamber of Peers. The discussion was a stormy one, and was equally damaging to the accuser and the accused, to the proprietor of the Presse and to the Ministry. The National gives the following graphic description of the scene : "A stranger introduced for the first time into the Chamber would not have had occasion for an instructor. He had only to look round him at the galleries or at the body of the House. In every direction was to be seen a compact multitude, the centre benches crowded, the galleries closely packed; a singular fermentation pre vailed through the House; in one direction an uneasy curiosity was manifest, but the majority of the specta tors showed a desire to enjoy a dramatic emotion, and all appearances announced one of those Parliamentary representations equal or superior to the most interesting theatrical performance. The amateurs were not disap pointed, the sitting was full of incidents, unexpected re velations, storms, and a confusion of voices—an orator extinguished—Ministers compromised —a deputy nailed to his bench abandoned by all and no longer able to de fend himself—a formidable majority crushing under their feet the victim they are about to surrender to the judges who are waiting for him. Such is the analysis of the comedy—such the movement of the scenery and the name of the actors. M. Billault was about to ascend the tribune, but the assembly, already unduly excited, could neither rest in their seats nor remain silent. There were moments when a sort of febrile impatience held the spectators in suspense—so great was the anxiety to hear that they were unable to listen. Nevertheless, when M. Emile de Girardin expressed a desire to speak a profound silence prevailed. All eyes were turned towards him. Standing in his place, having before him a large portfolio, his f ace pale, but his voice firm, he explained to the House that there were two questions before the Chambers—one of principle, the other of fact. He de • Glared that he would allow the first to be discussed, and that he would merely add some personal explanations when the principle should have been debated. These few words, delivered with facility aad steadiness, com menced the sitting, and all eyes continued to be directed towards his swollen portfolio, which appeared as menac ing as Pandora's box. M. Billault did not confine the debate within the terms specified by M. de Girardin—a man of clear intellect and a skilful anatomist, he pene trated rapidly into the marrow of the question. A few arguments were sufficient to reduce to dust the r:-port of M. Laviell; and arriving directly at the facts, he showed evidently that the Chamber of Peers was disinterested in the quarrel—that the queslion before the House was an accusation against the Ministry by a deputy— that there were either Ministers guilty of pre varication, or a deputy guilty of calumny. Un seasonable interruptions frequently broke the chain of his argument, but the orator was greeted with the unanimous assent of the Chamber when he established his dilemma. The Centres and the Left re peated vehemently, in concert, Yes, yes, that is the fact.' M. de Mony said from his place, • I wish as well as you that the affair should be investigated." And we likewise," And we likewise.'—lf the facts are true, re sumed the orator, the Ministry ought to be impeached, and the same voices echoed, Yes, yes !' The question of principle was postponed, and the prevailing idea was that the facts should be investigated. The ground was measured; ' duel, duel,' was'the cry, and the Chamber was anxious that it should take place. M. de Hausson vile wished to address the House in defence of the un fortunate report of the Commission; he was scarcely heard, but he added that the Commission reserved its right to change the terms of its report, after having heard M. Emile de Girardin. The interest was imme diately increased twofold, and it was believed that the accused would speak; he did, in fact, ascend the tribune, but it was to declare that he now pursued the course followed by M. de Cormenin in 1835 ; ho declared solemnly that he never had any idea of offending the peerage. He was interrupted by murmurs, and the ill will of the Centres assumed a hostile character. The orator appeared indignant that his word should not have obtained the same credit as that of M. de Cormenin. New murmurs. The Chamber wished something else. M. Emile de Girardin concluded by affirming that he would, at a later period, explain the facts, and persist in maintaining them. .. . He then quitted the tribune, and the general disappointment caused tumultuous agi tation upon every bench. To the voice of the orator succeeded confused murmurs and animated conversations. M. Plougoulm , however, descended f rom t h e upper seats of theeCentre which he inhabits—the President refused to - hear him, but the entire House exclaimed, ' Speak! speak!' He proceeds, he recedes, not knowing whom to obey, the violent flood of the Chamber bears him to the tribune, the reflux of the President drives him back, and he in fine, after his barque had suffered many oscillations, was miserably shipwrecked. His unconnected discourse, without hearing—a mere assemblage of empty sounds and noisy declamations— was every moment interrupted by confused murmurs. Scarcely could his mewling be collected at the conclu- sion of his speech. He wished for a. serious discussion, and for that reason he would send the deputy before the Chamber of Peers. His emotion deranged his faculties, he clung from branch to branch, like a man contending against a current which was carrying him off; he finished by plunging into the gulf, and when he resumed his place there remained no more of the eloquence of M. Plougoulm than a floating corpse. A single incident created a sensation in the assembly. When M. Plou goulm exclaimed that M. de Girardin would not fly a debate before the Chamber of Peers, the latter rose like a serpent about to dart his sting, and screamed with a shrill voice, M. Emile de Girardin never fled.' This sarcastic allusion to the well-known history of the ex- Attorney-General of Toulouse contributed not a little to his dislomfiture. The fatigue and disappointment had become so great that the Chamber had need of repose. The s s e i l t f ti t n o g m w . a d s e Gi su ir sp sr e d n i dd for a short time, and M. Odilon Barr o t having ascended the tribune, was heard s and r with that s il ence ever granted to him. He resumed the : question of p r i nc i ple, and discussed it in a few wor d s — nobody c are d to hear him • budere t at t length he addressed Emile de Girar din collected his pap ers and slowly asc ended the tribune. The attention of the Cha m b er had b eco me in a measure agonising—the prologue was co ncluded, and the drama was about to commence. The orator began by declaring ess m ed . him to explain, when the enti re Chamber C that he meant neither to diminish nor aggravate the ac cusation made by him, but to prove its accuracy. The members held their breath—he added, that he was a man attached to the Government, and that he demanded a Secret Committee before he revealed what he had to say. At this announcement a general surprise and visible terror seized those in the galleries. If five members demanded a Secret Committee,' said the Pre sident, 4 they have a right to it,' and already more than ten members rose exclaiming grant a Secret Committee if it be necessary for the defence ;' but at the same time a terrific hurricane burst amongst the Centre benches. M. Duchatel rose with the regulations of the House in his hand. He was met with a shout of the Secret Committee is declared; you have no right to speak.' A scene of indescribable confusion ensued. . . . It was as c ur i ous as t h e v i ew i n P an d emon i um . At length the Minister of the Interior succeeded in say ing a few words, protesting against the mystery. M. Emile de Girardin, retracing his steps, announced that since the Cabinet forced him to explain in public he would now tell all! But the mistrust of the Centres was awakened, and the orator was often interrupted; it be came necessary that M. Dupin should remind the Cham ber that the position of an accused commanded respect. M. Emile de Girardin, tranquil and master of himself, de tailed each allegation made in the article published by the Presse,—a theatrical privilege sold for 100,000 francs, which he proved by the written testimony of one of the company who paid that enormous sum—titles of nobility, for that he had only the authority of an article in La Mode —crosses of the Legion of Honour, for this he cited facts but refused to mention names—in fine, the pro mise of a peerage, neither would he mention the name, but he appealed to the memory of MM. Guizot and Duchatel ; the latter had told him, That passed in my absence. I blamed it • but it was done by M. Guizot. , This revelation excited some commotion, and the orator had previously with singular ability showed what little value was to be attached to Ministerial denials. He went further, he proved that a similar fact had oc curred in the year 1846, an d he produced the proof. He read, in fact, a letter addressed to the King, which has remained during eighteen months in the hands of his Majesty, in which letter M. Guizot is broadly ac ct the e s e c d o n O d f i h t i a o v n i having me th a e d cr t e h a e t i c o o n m o p f l e a t e p a e d e h r e . s i o T n h e of p a journal ostulant refused the condition with indignation—the postulant was Lieut.-General Girardin, the journal was the Presse. In fine, adding to the number of facts, the deputy de clared that at a meeting of postmasters they were offered that a Bill should be passed in their favour for a sum of 1,200,000 f. This full expose was made with firm as surance, n e r k i o n r o r t s w e a ts reply. becoming l c y u i l n t g ; and with a ll t h e appearance of profound trut , h. of o n Girardin repeat e d h is assert i ons —whether he proved them the Cha m b er must d ec id e . The Minister dehtehedeMniiendi,stoerr rather slipped over the ch arges w i t h pru d en t dexterity. M. maintained that he was no party to the sale of the theatrical privilege that as regarded the re maining charges, no Member of the Chamber could imagine that he could have meddled with such cor rupt traffic. The Chamber will decide. It was adroit, but not conclusive on the part of the Minister. Nevertheless the Centres applauded warmly. There remained M. Guizot and the famous promise of a peerage. Here matters took another turn, the Minister in the most unconcerned manner read a letter at the tribune in which M. Emile de Girardin admitted that he had surrendered his journal during four months and consented that it should deviate from his line of politics, because a promise had been made to him to grant Lieu tenant-General de Girardin the peerage, the object of so many applications. The letter produced an overpower ing effect. M. do Girardin had offered and accepted in the year 1838 the condition which he had reproached M. Guizot with having subsequently suggested--:hc had alienated his journal, and had consequently committed that which he accused M. Guizot of having required. The man was unmasked, the deputy was struck to the heart, but was the Minister the less dishonoured? Did he deny the letter, or that the peerage was sold for a journal? No ; but the Chamber felt indignant that he who had previously offered his journal should at present accuse the man who subsequently required the same sacrifice. It was believed, however, that M. de Girardin would have returned to the charge, and that he would have opposed contradiction to contradiction—that he would have covered the writer by the deputy, by, de manding a prosecution or an inquiry—that he would, in fine, show a gleam of indignation, or an impulse of courage. . . . Vain attempt—he remained nailed to his seat immovable; his glass to his eye, his face a yel low green—he received the mortal stroke without re sistance. The Opposition had nothing further to do but to protest in the name of a principle and to desert the man who had abandoned himself. The majority trium phant surrendered him disdainfully to the peerage.", M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN is to make his appearance at the bar of the Chamber of Peers on Tuesday. It is rumoured that he will be sentenced to a month's imprisonment and fined 10,000 francs. The Committee on the Cubieres affair have re ported that there is ground for suspicion against General CUBIERES, M. TESTE (late Minister of Public Works), M. PARAIENTIER, and M. PALLEPRAT. The report was to be presented to the Chamber on Monday (this day). On Friday the Chamber of Deputies passed a Bill allowing the free importation of corn in ships of all nations until 31st January next. There arrived at Marseilles on the 15th inst. 77 vessels laden with wheat. On the motion (brought forward on Saturday in the Chamber of Deputies) that a sum of 200,000 f. be granted to defray the expenses of celebrating the anni versary of the Revolution of July, 1830, M. DE BEAU'. MONT opposed the motion, on the ground that the pre sent system of government was so opposed to the Revo lution of July, and from the principles it established, that the celebration of its anniversary was a mere mockery. The motion, however, was carried by a majority of 225 to 8. The following letter, dated Berne, 14th June, appears in the Constitutionnel : " This morning the President of the Vorort, M. Ochsenbein, returned the British Chargé d'Affaires, Mr. Peel, the visit he had received from him, on his elevation to the federal presidency. The interview lasted upwards of an hour. From what transpired of it, it appears certain that England is endeavouring to turn to her advantage the recent blunders committed by the French Cabinet, by assuming an attitude different from that of the Cabinet of the Tuileries. Mr. Peel, far from in- dulging in any allusion offensive to M. Ochsenbein's character, as chief of the free corps, very properly passed that circumstance in silence, and merely referred to the contingencies that might result from the adhesion of twelve States and two half States to the policy of Berne and Zurich with regard to the great questions which now divide Switzerland. The English Minister, instead of questioning the competency of the Diet to enact decrees binding on the minority of the cantons, recognised that the conduct of that assembly was strictly legal, and completely foreign to the facts which had given rise, two years ago, to a manifestation of the Cabinet of St. James. In a word, the language of Mr. Peel shows that, if a cordial understanding now exists between France and Austria to support the Swiss Ultramontane party, the British Cabinet, directed by more sound inspirations, appreciates the situation of our country and the demand; of the Liberal party in their real point of view. This is a serious chek for the French policy, which, in order to please its present allies in Switzerland, is obliged in its foreign policy to separate from the most proponderating constitutional state in Europe to join an Absolutist Power. Such a contrast is more eloquent than long comments." The same journal has the following observations on the debates in the English Parliament on the affairs of Portugal : "In both Houses of the British Parliament it is una nimously agreed that between the Queen of Portugal and the insurgents right and justice were on the side of the latter; that the English Ministry, in interposing, had no other view than to save the Portuguese Constitution, and protect the lives of the insurgents; that the French Ministry and its tool, the late Spanish Ministry, would have interfered only to secure a triumph for a perjured Queen, a Court without principle or faith, to the preju dice of the liberties of the people. What they differ in is this :—The English Cabinet thinks that our Govern ment is disposed to make a long stride on the path of re action against liberty into which it has long ago entered, and in which it daily is taking new steps. The English opposition think that itis reactionary and without courage, and that a single menace would suffice to make it recoil. By this it may be seen what opinion is entertained abroad of the liberal principles sad courage of the men who rule us. Poland, Switzerland, Greece, and Italy, are ample evidences that this opinion is not a false one." We read in the Commerce:— "It appears that a grand political manifestation is to take place in Paris at the end of the session. It is pro posed that a Reform banquet shall take place in the Salle Ventadour, in which 600 citizens may join. The subscription of the Deputies of the Opposition are to be first solicited, and a great number among them have already announced the intention of taking part in the demonstration. We are assured that M. Odilon Barrot, M. Gustave de Beaumont, M. Lion de Malleville, and M. Duvergief de Hauranne, are to solicit the Prefect of Police to grant the necessary authorisation for the ban quet. When the city of Paris shall have made its de monstration, these four Honourable Members are de terthined to cause similar manifestations in the country, on the return of the Members of the Opposition to their departments." A letter from Toulon states that the squadron Un der the orders of the Prince DE JOINVILLE was still in the roadstead of Algiers on the 12th, but was pre paring for a cruise on the coast of Morocco. The Iphigenie and Armide frigates left Toulon on the 14th for Lisbon. The Committee upon the Lyons and Avignon Rail road Bill has decided upon substituting a definitive plan for that of the Government, which it considers to be only provisional. It has named M. DE LarA BELLE for its reporter. The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies on the Paris and Lyons Railroad Bill had agreed to extend the lease of the company by fifteen years, and to grant it a few other advantageous conditions. M. BEHIc had been appointed reporter on the Bill. The com pany, it was said, was not satisfied with these conces sions, and demanded that the whole of the money deposited as a security should be returned to it, in case it abandoned the enterprise. The Committee charged with examining the Bills requiring additional credits for the Northern, Vier zon, and Marseilles Railroads, was of opinion to ac cord them, with the exception of a sum of 1,000,000 f. required for the latter, which was to be paid by the company.

OUR HUNT.—We have sometimes felt surprise that our vocalists have never thought of giving us a sporting soiree. We have had Scotch, and Irish, and Welch, and Gipsy soirees, all of which have succeeded, but our collection of sporting songs, and no country is s,t rich in sporting songs, has been hitherto suffered to remain unillustrated. We are rejoiced, therefore, to find that at length our sporting songs are to have justice done to them. Mr. John Mills, the author of " The Old English Gentleman," " The Stage Coach," " The Sportsman's Library," upon whom the mantle of Nimrod seems to have fallen, gives an enter tainment at the Strand Theatre this evening illustrative of sporting life, in the course of which he will sing " A hunting we will go," "A southerly wind," " TOM Moody," and several other crack sporting songs. We hope trust all lovers of sport will rally round him.

A mysterious disease having rendered the reliance of man upon one of the most nutritious vegetables henceforth impossible, it becomes absolutely necessary for those individuals who have hitherto existed through its cultivation, to expend their agricultural labours upon seeds of a more promising character. However auspicious may be the auguries afforded by a prolific foliage or an untainted blossoming, it has been proved by the deplorable experience of the last harvests, that henceforth the potato-root is liable to the ravages of a murrain the most subtle and the most poisonous. Nothing is more completely testi fied in reference to this ruinous blight than the cir cumstance of its sudden development among crops of an exuberant growth and of a healthful appearance. Forty-five gave a terrible example of this : forty-six, one equally disastrous : we tremble lest forty-seven may be attended with similarly calamitous conse quences. That a profitable and nutritive plant, which for upwards of a century had become one, the almost universal source of nourishment among the peasantry of Western Europe, and especially among the population of these islands, should be abruptly de stroyed through an agency that baffles the scrutiny of the analytical chemist, and evades the ingenuity of the practical botanist, is one of those phenomena which demands a rational submission rather than an obstinate perseverance. Whether the disease in ques tion arises from a fungus, or from an insect, or from a source of decay inherent in the plant itself, or from some deleterious influence of an atmospheric nature, or from the presence of some pernicious quality in the soil, still remains a moot question, still multiplies experiment upon experiment, still renders it advisable to neglect, if not entirely to abandon, the cultivation of potatoes, for the preference of something of a more secure description. Among the numerous hy potheses which have seen the light in reference to the potato murrain, decidedly the most reasonable to our mind is the one propounded in an essay re cently published by the agriculturists of Scotland, and written by Mr. DAVID MILNE. That gentleman is disposed to attribute the extinction, or rather the con tamination root of this esculent, entirely to the baneful operation of some novel, and as yet indefinable gas. Believing such to be the immediate cause of disease in the potato, he enveighs against those who would persist in the cultivation of the vegetable as men who would wilfully and almost irreligiously pursue a path upon which the ban of DIVINE PROVIDENCE has de scended. Now, although we are very far indeed from coinciding with this really extravagant and fanatical mode of argument, we certainly agree with Mr. MILNE, that it is advisable to discard (at least for a while) a root upon which there can in future be no dependence whatever, and to cultivate seed less liable to be affected by such enigmatical agencies. Flax we have already recommended as affording abundant produce, for the purchase of provisions, for the payment of rentals, and for the continued employ ment of the local peasantry. This, however, would constitute merely a medium of barter in the way of manufacture. It becomes, therefore, a point of extraordinary interest to select some plant calculated to afford a marketable crop, and at the same time calcu lated to yield a surplus of nutrition for the indus trious in the locality. Among the most feasible re commendations upon this particular that has yet appeared is undoubtedly the suggestion of the sowing and culture of haricot beaus. Of all the leguminous vegetables the haricot bean is about the most readily cultivated, about the most profitable in regard to the number of pods upon each stalk, and the number of beans in each pod, and about the most wholesome and palateable as an article of daily consumption. Some selection of a substitute for the infected potatoes is more essential in England, and yet more essential in Ireland, than it is in France, or Germany ; for the potato is grown upon the continent almost as much for exportation as for home use ; and beyond that, the peasantry of France have an ample source of subsistence, in the event of the extinction of the potato root, in the shape of the sweet and plentiful chestnut. Among the population of the British islands it has become an imperative duty on the part of the agri culturists—whether those agriculturists be tenant farmers, or extensive landholders, or merely petty crofters—to count no longer upon the crops yielded by the potato tubers. It would be a manifest hazard on the part of those who would still continue to dibble new seeds between the original drills, were they to place their entire expectations upon the pro ducts of this most dubious vegetable. Such conduct would amount to gambling, with all the chances of experience against one. It would be tempting bankruptcy, defying a vegetable pestilence, and faci litating the repetition of famine. Let science still persevere in its endeavours to discover the actual source of this calamitous murrain, let the decayed tubers be still scrutinised by analysis, let the agricultural chemist espe cially continue his experiments without inter ruption, but meanwhile let the soil be turned to better advantage than by consigning to it a perfidious seed, which, after beautifying the spring with its ver dure and effloresence, will putrify and blacken in the sunlight of the summer, and transform the fields into a noisome and pestiferous mass of decomposition through the desolate days of an unprofitable autumn. f Let it be remembered that there is yet sufficient time 1 , ;:r the r emova l o f the apparently flourishing but pro ably rotting potato plants, and the substitution of som oay esuch culi nary vegetable as the haricot bean. may be disastrous. At the least, however, We would recommend the cultivators of the potato to be scrupulously vigilant in ob serv i ng the progress of its vegetation. We have advocated the propriety and justic e o f di re ct taxation on property, in place of the sent system, by which the wei ght of the enormous natio nalpre debt by which we a re o pp res sed and burdened i s made to fall chiefly on those who should be wholly exempted from its operation. We have already shown th e in. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. _ The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were 6,000 bales. The market was lively. American at full rates, and Surat and Brazil a point higher. The de mand for Shares was but limited, but prices were firmer. The Liverpool, Crosby, and Southport Railway Bill passed the House of Lords on Friday last, and only now awaits the royal assent. As regards the intrinsic merits of this line, it will be sufficient to state that the Man chester and Leeds Railway Company have already made arrangements with the directors for securing possession of it. The Vernon, arrived from the Cape of Good Hope, brings dates of April 21, but no definite news, as yet, of the expedition against the Kafirs. It seems, indeed, to be rather a matter of uncertainty whether our troops will melt with any decided resistance, or be pounced upon as before, by straggling parties, guerilla fashion. The breakwater at the Cape was not likely to be made yet for want of funds. Dr. Smye, a talented gentleman, who graduated in England, had been unfortunately drowned by the upsetting of his boat in Mossel Bay. There were liberal subscriptions making for the Irish and Scotch. The advices from the West India islands advert, in some instances, to the prevalence of dry weather, and this was the case in parts of Jamaica; but generally, the planters had no reason to complain, and the yield will be much more abundant than usual. The want of shipping to bring the produce to England appears to be much felt at Jamaica, Trinirlad, and other of the colonies. It aprears to us, after a careful perusal of accounts from various quarters, that the crops on the continent, as well as here, promise abundantly, and that the at tempt to get up corn is likely to be defeated by the continued heavy imports here. In one day, the 15th instant, there arrived at Havre, sufficient flour and grain to supply Paris with a week's consumption. The Stock Market is less bueyant to-day, owing to the impression that the corn market may be run up again. Consols have been 581 and are now at 88i.

MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.) 87 88% 15% 4% 2% 10 5% CORN EXCHANGE—MONDAY. The arrivals of all articles of home produce up to our market, last espe cially those of wCe week, were but fr o o n m a l r v e e l r a y n d nelimi ted arly 1 5 c ,0 scale,1 0 e 0 , quar ters of Wheat and a fair quantity of Corn came to h an d, while the receipts of those articles from Scotland were tolerably good. The imports of Foreign Wheat ex ceeded 20,000 quarters , and of Flour 13,000 b arre l s, which latter may be considered a large supply. Fresh up, the receipts of Wheat of home produce were but moderate, and the show of samples was by no means ex tensive. Several unfavourable accounts respecting th e potato crop having come to hand this morning from various parts of the country, and the weather during the past week having been showery, the factors and holders in the early part of the day were very firm in their demands, and in some instances they succeeded in obtaining 2s to 3s per quarter more money, for selected parcels of both Red and White. But, as the day progressed, the trade became very inactive, and tUe few parcel* w hien eLlangc(t Lauds after twelve (ft:luck w ere at an improvement of no more than Is per quarter; while several hundred quarters found buyers at prices about equal to those paid on this day sen'nighti in order to e ffect a clearance. This fallin g off in the inq uiry and depression in value from the opening of the market, must be attributed 1 t o the large importations of foreign Wheat and Flour I reported last week, and which we have noticed above. We had an extensive quantity of foreign Wheat on offer, certainly over 30,000 quarters. A few parcels of very inferior Dantzic changed hands, at an improvemen t of from is to 2s per quarter, but the advance was by no means general, and we quote prices, taking the trade AS a whole, the same as on Monday last. Notwithstanding the show of Barley was small, the trade with that article was in a very depressed state, at b arel y , nothing but at quotable beneath, last week's currencies. With Malt, we were scantily supplied; nevertheless, the trade was in a sluggish state, at unalt ered q uotations. There were very few Oats on offer ; yet the demand for that article was heavy, at barely last week's figures. In Beans and Peas—the supplies of which wer e small next to nothing was doing, at previous quo t a tions. Ind ian Corn was firm, and higher rates were demanded by the holders, without being obtained. Flour — barrelled—moved off slowly, at late figures. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE . Wheat-Essex & Kent, Dialt - Chev aller • • • • • • iBB tO 8 31 Red.

Compared with those on Monday last , the arrivs of Beasts fresh up to-day were somewhat on the increase, and of excellent quality, especially the Scots, homebreds. and short-horns from Norfolk. Although the attend ance of buyers was numerous th e Beef trade was in 1; sluggish state, and in some instances the quotations low! a downward tendency. The highest figure for the best Scots was 5s 2d per Sibs, an d at which a clearanq was effected. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received about 1,200 Scots, home: breds, and short-horns; from t he western and midlana counties, 800 Herefords, runts, evons, &c.; from othetra. parts of England, 500 of various kinds; and from Sco _ land, 300 horned and polled Scots.

The imports of wool into London since Monday last have amounted to nearly 4,000 packages, mostly frog our colonies. The public sales in progress in the cog:, of the week have gone off heavily, and pr i ce s have rula... a shade easier. About 22 , 000 bales have been bro u g h t forward. A full average quantity of wool is on es er 1 0 _ the rivate market, but, owing.to the hinessee in t h e trade in the manufacturing districts, the busine passing is trifling. TALLOW. There is only a moderate business doing in this mar ket, and the quotations —notwithstanding the imports this se ason from St. Petersburgh are al e the ected to is quote be late —have somewhat declined.

(Trial at bar, before the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE Mr. "COLERIDGE, and Mr. Justice PATTESON, Mr. Justice THIS DAY.) Justice WIGUTINIAN.) HILTON V. E L R O T R y D D G y R A T NLIL W L 1 4: 1 3, 1 ; 41 sad This case has been before the Court aince 18 , 6 both the original litigants are dead, but their successor NTOINEfiso.UsE FRO have continued the suit with unabated vigour up to tlee t. present time, and this morning it came on again for trial before the above-named Learned Judges and special jury, the ordeal being termed " a trials t bar. Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, Mr. Godson, d Mr. Browne appeared for the plaintiff ; and the Attorner General, Sir Frederick Thesiger, and Mr. Peacock for the defendant. The action was simply brought to recover compass tieoneeine hbyel thedamageswo for various injuries sustained by tvro h t h em , h mode em i w n h w ic h h ic h h e tir ea d s e ed fen f d ro a ni nt had the worked a minee Crowv, and which had caused their foundations to give way, a nd the houses thems..lves to crack, and to be rendered, in consequence, valueless. The defendant had placed no less than six pleas on the record : first, not guilty ; second, denying the right of the plaintiff to the founds.. tions of the houses ; third, that the Queen, as Duchess of Lancaster, was entitled to all the mines and minerals within it, and that the Crown had from time inlteg morial been in the habit of leasing them, making to the occupiers of the houses compensation for th e use 0t; 0 the surface, and for any damage done in conseq uence that use, but without making any compensat ion on sni other account ; the other pleas recited the immernoris custom, and claimed on the assent of the defendant 6 right of use of 40 years' duration. Some of the plea s had been traversed. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD stated the case to the jury. After stating that the case had been brought out of the county of Stafford, from the difficulty of obtaining 1113 impartial jury, as the inhabitants were generally itiLer; ested in mine property, he went oa to say, that the is .° • 'ff but of the case was not only interesting to the plaint]. , to all who resided on the surface of the earth, bel e . which mines had been excavated, who, if the extraordi nary and monstrous right claimed by the Crown w s i : tenable, might be hurled into the bowels of the cart without a moment's warning ; or if no injury to life We L S ., done, but only to property, would have no right t o compensation for the injury done. The cin ch / embraced amongst other towns Hanley and ice , which contained 20,000 souls, and, of cours e, an mense quantity of valuable house property, and churches, chapels, and other valuable public buildings, shoWil what great and valuable interests would be sik e r ] , either one way or the other by the decision to we' c , i they might arrive. The Crown, of course, possesseU the minerals, the working of which it leased, so that Fn_! the ono hand they had to look at the rights As s. o _ l. Crown, and on the other those of an immense m,oe; people. It was monstrous to set up on the Crown that it would make empensation for part of t.h Wag; done on the surface, but not the slightest compensati% to the proprietors of houses to which damage might D u done by the works going on beneath ; such an a r c ment was tantamount to this, that the Crown a t 1 ... pleasure might cause the houses to crack and to fan o He was confident, therefore, that the jury would ag e with him that this plea was wholly untenable in justicer as it was in law. The plaintiff was the proprieto of two copyhold houses, which were built by a club or_ wards of forty years ago. The ground was granted. to him by George 111., at a fine of one penny ; the plan l " tiff in fact became possessed of the house before the dei The fondant became the lessee of the mine . town c) , l Hanley, in which the houses were situated, she] red downwards, and at the bottom of the d eclivit y , and under. the houses of the plaintiff, the mines of the &tendon' were worked. In the y e ar 1841, injury to th e house, from the working of the mines, which were connected with each other, began to manifest itself, and an injunction was moved for in the Court of Chancery, calling upon the defendant to refrain from working the mines to the injury of the plaintifQ an action, however, was commence d in 1845, whic° came on for trial at Stafford, but it unfortunately led to no result of a satisfactory nature to the parties. It ar peared to him that the questions they would have W try would be these: first, had damage occurred to the pro..-, rerty the plaintiff fret , the ~ f the wines 01 the defendant; and, second, had that damage eri' eu by reason of the exercise of a right which the to de; fendant possessed by common law or by cusni‘ par 2 34 p 3'N 15' 11% 85.4 42 15% 21}2 bo.d th ere 4d the pla%* doubtedly b ,turth—. llo 11 .1 the north ltdence of t - of the how( Lority until built over ti . 1841 thirty ne the act et state of gals in t'ironstone p e ratum of c rior irons , "erking the 111 Pillars w trays caused bleared awt sUbsidence c Counsel th( d oubted rigl Punted him b elow, destroy welocv, there kid proceed r.
