THE TABLES.—Paris, says an el.gant author, is literally tunnelled with, arcades to which the pedes trian can resort for shelter from both sun and rain. Yet London, with its variable climate, scarcely can boast of half a-mile of such harbours of refuge. The little bit of covered way which the foresight of the designer of New Ox`ord-street provided has been again restored by a legal order to the pus lic, it having been exclusively converted into a gallery for furniture. The proprietor of the well-known firm of Hauling, of Fore-street, has taken umbrage at this, and in a fit of spleen has adver tised the immense stock there collected for unre-erved sale. Thus will the public doubly benefit ; firstly. by regaining the right of way, and, secondly, by the bona fide dispersement of the largest and, it is said, the best assortment of modern furniture which has occurred since the celebrated sale of SAdons. The sale is expected to last several days, and has given rise to a good deal of angry feeling in the trade, with which we can neither Elropathise nor detail, while such manifest good is likely to accrue to those to whom the comforts of a home is a Itotaintnt thoughte —Observer.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from the Legislative Council of New South W.lea; in Parliament assembled, against the dismember.: ent of the colony, said to be in contemplation. He also wished to know if the Government had arrived at any decision as to the separation of a portion of the northern territory of New South Wales., and al , o, if such separation took place, what measures had been taken to prevent convicts being sent out to the colony. Earl GRANVILLE was understood to say that the separation of the cotruy bad been resolved upon, but he could as'ure the noble duke there was not the slighest intention of sending a sin lNDlAgle convict to the new colony. Tke Earl of C.ARNARVON begged to ask the noble earl opposite when the papers relative to the Indian mutiny would be laid on the table ? Earl GRANVILLE said before the house adjourned the papers would be laid on the table. SECOND READINGS.

The SPEAKER read a letter from the solicitor of Mr. Locke, one of the members of the committee, stating that he was at present at Aix-la-Chapelle for the benefit of his health, and under the circum,tances he begged to be excused from attending on this committee. Mr. BASS bore testimony to the correctness of this statement. After a short discussion, the hon. member was excused from attending. BERWICK ELECTION PETITION. The SPEAKER read a letter froin.the agents of the petitioners against the sitting members, stating that it was not intended to proceed with the petition. BANKING BILL. On the motion that the house go into committee, Mr. HEADLAM said he bad a very important mo tion on the paper respecting this bill, it was to move an amendment to provide for the formation of joint-stock banks, based upon the principle of limited liability, but in the present state of the house he appealed to his hon. frien d the Vice-Presidof the Board of Trade not to press forward the bill at a morning bitting. He doubted much if there were sufficient members present to constitute a house legally, and as the measure was one that would require the greatest attention he hoped that the committee would be pcistponed until a future day- Mr. 'HADFIELD thought the best course to pur sue was to withdraw the bill altogether for the present sessiOn. in ttwhich Mr. LOWE reminded the house thatpl ace of the bi ha ll was to establish a system of winding-uPp had proved to be so disastro us in the case of the Royal British Bank. The subject was of co such im nb portan consen ce t to to the commercial community th at be could t postpone the progress of the meas pelfor could a sin bring for ward his amendment upon the bringing up of the report. After a few wards from Mr. GLYN, The house went into comm ittee on the bill. Clause 1 was agreed to. On clause 2 being read , Mr. HEADLAM moved the omission of certaintrod words f o r the purpose of ig at the end of the clause, words t > provide for the formation of Joint-Stock Bs.oks upon the principle of limited liability. The hon. mem ber having complained of being compelled to proceed with his amendment in so thin a house, proceeded to explain that some time ago he had to investigate the case of several Joint-Stock Banks in the north of England ; the result was, that he became thoroughly conscious that the principle of unlimited-liability, as applied to Joint-Stock Banks, was attended with very great evils, and it was to put au end to such anomalies that he then discovered that the present amendment was proposed. Having entered into a statement of the evils of unlimited liability, the honourable member said he believed that the direct tendency of the present law was to lower the character of the shareholders in such companies. Un limited liability prevented the establishment of joint stock banks, for but few gentlemen would be found disposed to enter into a concern by which they ren dered themselves liable for every shilling of the !sties of of the company. He looked upon joint-stock banks, in which there was unlimited liability, as possessing a character purely fictitious. The business transacted was of the same nature, and it sometimes happened the whole capital wee frittered, and cases had occurred in which, he was sorry to say, it had been traced into the bands of the directors. He maintained that the existing sys tem did not work well, on the contrary, he thought it was impossible to ex tggerate the evils it occasioned ; bearing out this view of the case he need only point to the Tipperary Bank—(hear, hear)—as an illustration of the bad effects of the system ; and then again the Royal British Bask, at the constitution of which it was said to be based upon limited liability, but the shareholders had found to their cost that it was not so, but on the con trary, they were liable for the debts of that bank to their last farthing. If hig amendment was agreed to cases similar to those be had mentioned could not occur. e tock ot ha t u h k e s, g h en e Mr. BERNARD said, as a very large shareholder in gal e his cordial support:to tleman opposite. The un limited liability pri iciple had proved to be erroneous by thef allure of the Royal British Bank. Mr. HASTIE thought the principle of limited liability certain the amendmentjjoint was moat dangerous, and he looked upon a person enter ing into one of these company's as one playing with loaded dice. It allured parties to speculate to the extent of 20,0001., although only possessed of capital to half that amount. He looked upon the limited liability system as one which will prove most disastrous to the tra d e an d commerce of the country. The hon. member for Newcastle had totally failed to prove the superiority of the limited liability principle, and therefore he trusted the house would refuse to adopt the amendment. Mr. GLYN regretted that the hon. member for New castle had thought it his duty to biiog forward ttis amet ,d nue ut at a morning sitting. The limited liability principle, daribg the time it Larl been in operation, bad not had a fair trial, owing to the state.of the money market. He thought the present was not the best time for bringing forward the amendment, and that it would be much better to leave the subject in the hands of the Government, in order that next session a measure might be brought forward which would meet the views of a'l parties. Mr. SHERIDAN said he should support the amend ment of the hon. member for Newcastle. He thought the liability of shareholders should be fixed at three tunes the amount of their holding , . If such a plan :gas adopted he thought loss would scarcely ever occur in case of the failure of the concern. Mr. BRISCOE opposed the amendment. He con sidered the lifisited liability principle to be a total failure. In the yer.r 1837 no less than 600 banks en the limited. principle failed in America. Mr. BUCHANAN opposed the amendment. Ile thought the most reckless set of trustees were these who transacted their business on the limited liability principle. Mr. R,IDLEY <sitiid he was not yet certain that the principle of limited liability could with safety be adopted, and for these reasons he could not support the amend ment of his hon. colleague. Sir J. GRAHAM said be thought under all the cir cumstancee, the state of the house, and a committee now sittingion barking upstairs which was examieieg the most important questions, it would be unfortunate for the hon. member for Nee castle even to push this amend- went to a division. He thought it inexpedient that the Government should be called upon to express an opinion upon the subject at that time, and he therefore again appealed to the hon. gentleman to withdraw his amend ment. Mr. LOWE thought the righthon. baronet, the mem. ber for Carlisle, had given the house good advibe, and he hoped the hon. gentleman would assent to his pro position. Mr. HEIDLAM said after the remarks he had just heard he should not trouble the committee to divide. The amendment was then negatived without a division. Clauses up to 11 were agreed to. On clause 12 being propssed, Mr. SHERIDAN wished to know why the govern tnent bad fixed the shares of joint stock banks at IN/. each. He thought such a determination was most ex traordinary ; as he could not see why 10 shareholders of 10/. were not as good as one shareholder of the larger sum. Mr. LOWE said there was strong reason why the shares should be fixed at 1001. The existing law fixed the amount at 1001. and as this act was to supersede that law that sum had been retained. His object in fix'ng upon that amount for this bill was for the convenience of calculating, supposing the limited liability principle was extended to joint stock banks, the value of each member's share. Mr. SHERIDAN said he did not feel satisfied with the explanation, and he should therefore wove that the shares be fixed at 10/. Mr. FITMROY said it was not competent for the hon. member to move the amendment. The question was that the clause stand part of the bill, therefore no amendment could be put. The clause was agreed to, as were the remaining clauses of the till. LOAN SOCIETIES BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. COMIONS ENCLOSURE BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. BOUNDARIES OF LAND. This bill was also read a third time and passed. PUBLIC WORKS (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and pased.

BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY (IRE• LAND BILL. The amendments on this bill were considered and agreed to. A.LDON ELECTION. Sir J. TROLLOPE brought up the report of the committee appointed to try the merits of a petition against the return of the sitting members for the borough of Maldon. The report stated that Thomas Sutton Western, Esq., and John Bramley Moore, Esq , ha i been duly elected. Tuat bribes were offered by an elec tor named John Riley, but it was not proved t ) have been done with the cognizance of the sitting member or his agentQ, and that the petition against the return of J. B. Moore, Esq., was frivolous and vexatious, having been presented fur the purpose of inducing the withdrawal of the petition against the other sitting member. The sitting of the house was suspended. The SPEAKER resumed the chair at six o'clock. [LEFT SITTING.] PARLIAMENTARY OATHS BILL. MEETING OP LIBERAL MEMBERS THIS DAY. The adjourned meeting of the liberal members of the House of Commons was held at three o'clock this after noon at the King's Arms, Palace Yard, to receive the report of the deputation appointed to wait on Lord Palmerston in reference to the Parliamentary Oaths Bill, and to delibera eon the course to be adopted. Mr. E. Horsman in the chair. There was a tolerably full at tendance. Baron Rothschild was present. The CHAIRMAN having stated the object of the meet ing, which was to ask the Government to give its sup port in the first instance to Lord J. Russell's bill, and to postpone the consideration of Mr. Dill wyn's resolution t.ll that bid was disposed of one way or another, said that the deputation appointed at the previous meeting had this morning waited upon Lord Palmerston, and had received from him an assurance that her Majesty's Go vernment would support the introduction of Lord John Russell's bill to-night. (Hear, hear.) His lordship also stated that at present the Government were ignorant of the exact provisions of Lord J. Russell's bill, and it was impossible for him then to form an opinion as to the pro bability of its ultimately passing both Houses of Parlia ment. In a case like the present the Chairman urged upon the meeting the necessity of their proceeding cau tiously, and step by step. The only question now r the consideration of the meeting was, what reception and support it should give to Lord J. Russell's bill. Should it not meet with their views, or should it be rejected, it would then be their duty to consider what further course they should pur sue. (Hear, hear.) The deputation had received from Lord Palmerston an assurance, which no one could doubt, of the desire of the Government to see the question settled—(hear, hear)—and, in re ference to the want of unanimity on the question in the Cabinet as displayed in the recent discussion in the House of Lords, hii lordship explained that it did not arise from any change of opinion in the members of the Cabinet, but that the views of the noble lerd alluded to on this subject were known to the Cabinet on its original formation. It was impossible fur any one to doubt Lord Palmerston's sincerity in his desire to give effect to the principles of his own bill, and it should be remembered that the Government in a question of this kind had a somewhat difficult card to play. The Government could not be expected to pledge itself to the particular course it should pursue before events had arisen to justify it. He considered it was the duty of the meeting to place every confidence in their political leaders, and to act earnestly and wianimously with them, the effect of which might be to lead to a successful result. (Hear, hear.) It was obvious that the future course of the Government and the Liberal members of the House of Commons must greatly depend on what occurred to night in the house. (Hear.) They had very formidable opponents, and the cause was not altogether free from difficulties, and he thought the only thing that would peril their success would be want of unanimity among themselves. (Hear, hear.) He hoped the meeting would confine itself to the immediate course to be now taken, and not di,cuss the advisability of Baron Rothschild, in the event of the failure of the present* bill, appearing at the table of the house and demanding to be sworn in the manner most bindng on his conscience. To precipitate that course now would only produce the most lamentable re sults. It would subject the Baron to great personal mortification, and the Liberal party to a great deleat. (Hear.) The right hon. gentleman said that Lord Pal merston, having consented to give the support of the Government to the introduction of Lord John Russell's bill, and, in the event of that failing, to give Mr. Dill wyn's resolution his consideration, he urged upon the meeting the necessity of confining themselves to the consideration of the course they should pursue in refe rence to Lord Palmerston's announcement. Mr. AYRTON asked if a shorthand writer was present this morning when the deputation waited on Lord Pal merston. It was most important that the meeting should know how the case was represented to his lord ship, and his exact reply. The CHAIRMAN said that reporters were not present. It was not usual for them to be present at deputations at the noble lord's private residence. His lordship com municated freely with the members of the deputation, and gave them permission to communicate what had transpired to their friends and the public. A discussion ensued, in the course of which it was urged that it was the duty of the House of Commons to assert its privileges, the same as the House of Lords on the life peerage question, and also that, by a little more pressure from without, the House of Lords would be obliged to give way to the popular feeling. The following resolution was agreed to unanimously . " That Lord Palmerston having announced the in tention of the Government to support the introduction of Lord J. Russell's bill this evening, it is inexpedient to consider our future course until the meeting has'bad an opportunity of knowing the contents of the bill, and the probability of its being allowed to pass this session." The meeting was adjourned sine die. A vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the proceedings. LONDON GAZETTE—(This Evening. WAR-' FFICE, ;inLi 2t.

Carttar, coroner for West Kent, held an inquest on Saturday afternoon at Cudham, near Gravesend, on the bodies of Arthur and Madeline Smith, aged respectively three years and three months, who were accidentally burnt to death in the above village on the preceding Thursday. From the evidence adduced, it appeared that the parents of the deceased are poor people, and being engaged in agricultural pulpits, had left them in care of an elder brother, aged Ave years. During the absence of the parents the house was discovered on fire, the elder boy alone escaping, and the deceased being both burnt almost to a cinder. Th e fire i ts supp osed to have been occasioned by the children playing with lucifet matches.

(From the Times ) This season Cremorne combines a variety of amusement that completely throws into the shade 11 the manager's previous efforts, successful as they ever were. From about 5 o'clock in the ?Afternoon to 12 at night something or other is going on in one of the vast edifices that are dotted about the premises, to say nothing of miscellaneous curiosi ties, such as "sea lions" and monkeys, cosmoramas games of all descriptions, and the amu,ement af forded by the garden itself, which, deco: ated with statues and fountains, presents some new object at the end of every dozen yards. It is the pecu liar advantage of Cremorne to be equally fitted for the quiet recreations proper to daylight, and. that more pronounced hilarity that scarcely is in season before nightfall. A stroll about the grounds and over the bridge with the chance of an occasional balloon on a gala-day, will satisfy the lover of early hours, who will wind up his innocent enjoyments by a sober " tea" in one of those Arcadian r e reats called boxes. The ballet in tlee saloiee the featsof theeques • the trim s cti er j e cra, t rti tz sr performances er o k f r es t: o l ra e en 3y ad l t : 10 T hn i e o of e yt ie The.a eoflattleiemonr comers and the later stayers, though even some of these are occtsionaly adapted to the convenience of early patrons. The most important addition to the garden is Vie Marionette Theatre, which is a theatre to all in ti-nts and purposes, with pit, boxes, and a spacious stage, presenting a facade of the gayest and lightest appearance to the outside spectator. Great perfec tion has been attained in the working of the mario nettes, which even open their mouths to convey the notioa of actual discourse, and go triumphantly through the action of a somewhat intricate piece. The dresses of these puppets are brilliant in the ex treme, and when the drama is of the spec - aele kind the scenery is most gorgeous, and complicated effects of machinery are introduced. Moreover, the present proscenium can be removed, so as to adapt the stage, if required, to the performances of living full-grown actors. The ballet at Cremorne has always been remark able for the taste with which it is produced and the talent of the artists, but it has a peculiarity that distinguishes it from all works of a similar class, and connects it with the entertainments of former days. Indeed it is not so much a ballet in , the modern sense of the word as what used to be called " a pantomime of action," with a comic story at its foundation, allowing room for the dis play of much grotesque humour. Every season brings with it a new ballet, but the piinciple is never varied. Among the extra items of attraction ere a wise dog, that exhibits the erudition formerly deemed peculiar to " learned pigs," and a little girl, termed the " Magnetic Wonder," who professes to have the power not only of Mesmer, but of the load stone. A young brother who is sent to sleep and rolled about the floor at her good will and pleasure is the victim of her proficiency, and she has a sin gular facility in moving the heavy flat-iron called by tailors a " goose" without the muscular action deemed necessary for the process. The theory, of course, is that " magnetic fluid" is the operative agent. We merely state effects without diving into causes. The most heedless spectator who reflects that so many amusements, spread over so large an extent both of space and time, result from the enterprise of one individual can scarcely refuse his tribute of admiration. Cremorne is a great work of art, or rather of many arts. MOBOCRACY IN NEW YORK. There is certainly a moral of some sort to be de duced from all great disturbances, riots, and emeutes. Hardly one occurs in any part of the world which does not convey a lesson to somebody. Very few people are suppled with as many lessons of the sort as we are. We have riots and disturb ances of all sorts, grievous and disgraceful enough in their way. The only consolation we have in re cording or commenting upon them lies in the fact that probably in no part of the world are riots so little significative of the state or feelings of the com munity at large—so entirely local both in their causes and in their results. An English riot im plies, as a general rule, great and wide-spread suf fering or discontent so acute, that the restrain's of a strong Government and well-knit aristocracy are insufficient to prevent itsboiling over. A French emaute is either the herald of revolution, or the at tempt of hordes of fanatics to break up t e frame work of society, and imposes upon the nation, per fas aut nefas, the wildest " crazes" which the wildest imaginations can conceive. When barri cades are erected in the rue St. Antoine the world knows that the Government pro tem. is resting on an unsteady basis, and that a large portion of the French people is desirous of change. It is hardly necessary to speak of the full force of disturbances in any other European country. In all despotisms popular outbreak implies not simply the existence of deep-seated discontent, but that the malcontents were growing too strong for their tyrants. It is at once the . price and privilege of freedom to indorse turbulence and disorder with impunity. No Frenchman ever crosses the Channel and witnesses the tumult by which an English election is marked without feel ing convinced that the empire is tottering to its fall. No foreigner, we are fully persuaded, ever reads the accounts of riots and bloodshed by which Le columns of our own journals are frequently dis graced, without arriving at the conclusion that all security both for life and property is at an end within the limits of this Republic. One must be on the spot and have some insight, how ever small, into the genius of our institutions, and some familiarity, however slight, with the instincts of the people, to know how litle the whole body politic is affected by what are, after all, but scratches on the surface, which a thorn might in flict or a day might heal. We desire to guard our selves expressly in making these remarks against the imputation of being the apologists of such scandals as those by which our city was disgraced. on Saturday and Sunday nights last. There is no way in which armed conflicts between bands of ruffians in our streets in broad noonday can be made to wear any aspect but a discreditable one. But we do wish to have ti .e world know that in all this, so far from buying our freedom too dearly, we could bear twice the amount of rowdyism by which we are at present afflicted, without wishing to sacrifice one jot or tittle of this rude license, in I return for the chains, the bayonets, the clean streets, and trained police of a "strong Government."— New York Times. HOP INTELLIGENCE. g M oo I d I . DST W ON e E h , aJveulgyoold6.—strTonhge biue, hops in neigh bourhood exhibit the effects of the very hot weather, and an improvement is manifest. From the ravages of the vermin upon the slack bine, it was at one time fully believed that there would be, at least, a partial blight, and it is evident that t he crop will not be anything like a large one ; th ere are some grounds, however, that present a he alth y luxuriant appearance, the shoots being strong an d. vigorous.

THE NEW MEM ELECTIONL—Lord John Browne's address to the electors of Mayo has been issued. His Lordship promises to give an independent support to the present Government so long as it retains the confi dence of the country. This means anything or nothing. The Nation announces that Mr. Tristram Kennedy, the rejected of Louth at the last election, goes down to Mayo under the direct auspices of the archiepiscopal returning officer for the county, and that, his Protes tantism notwithstanding, be will be supported by the priests in a body. Mr. P. Blake, Q.C., has waived his pretensions to the borough of Galway, and has, it is said, resigned in favour of $i Thomas Rediultat. the of na- Lsa en- )an of tie 'he the Rt. arp in nd h is per e3h s uses of 64 rer, ble for 55, )00 In nes ore be lan ic he ;sia, in no, )ry sia pry for ars an seS )ce ,be of 2i a
